Re: [PHP] seraching / indexing in php
PHPdig comes with extensive documentation and you are free to rewrite the code so that the search engine does exactly what you want. But, you have to be rather familiar with PHP. My own impression was that it is easy (more or less) to do some basic configuration on the search engine. When it comes to adopting the code for your own needs, so to say, it is sometime necessary to do some extensive research on the PHP manual. However, Phpdig is capable of indexing dynamically generated pages (I just tested it). To write a little script in order to update the index when the pages content changed, shouldn't be a problem either. Download the package and take a look at the source code. regards, frank 2005-03-22 kl. 16.01 skrev Reinhart Viane: Thanks Frank, One question: on most of these search engines I can't seem to find if the index and search dynamically generated pages.

Re: [PHP] Re: http authentication with safe mode enabled?!
Richard Lynch wrote: You can always add more .htaccess files in more directories, or edit the one that's there. And that's precisely what I did. The only reason why I only have .htaccess in the top-level directory is that I don't have any directives specific to one subdomain that the others shouldn't use and according to the apache docs when requesting a file apache looks in every higher-level directory for .htaccess as well. The fact that the uid of the script is appended to the realm specified shouldn't require any changes in the code, or should it? No. It would only invalidate any saved logins or passwords from the old realm being managed by the browser. Different realm == different login/credentials needed. Thanks for that info, seems my understanding of the matter is not as for off as I thought it to be although I've read your posting saying you only got to know the specifics through years of practice. That's your ISP being silly, not PHP 4.3.10 changing That's what I thought. That said, HTTP Authentication WILL NOT WORK with CGI. It is disabled in PHP source because, because your password would be transmitted insecurely from Apache to PHP, and the PHP Team is not willing to do that for obvious reasons. Get your host to go back to PHP as Module, or switch to a form login. I already contacted their support asking them to at least have PHP5 built as a module when they'll upgrade. I'm not to happy with their support anyways, responses are fast but they've never told me anything I hadn't known before asking them. I've moved from trying to use HTTP based authentication-methods to php sessions and html-form based authentication, it's much more configurable especially visual-design-wise and wasn't half as challenging to implement as I'd expected. Don't you just love when you teach yourself something new and can use it to do what you want to, and it actually works. Okay, enough chatting. I just wanted to thank you for your answers Richard, very helpful and informative. Cheers from germany, Roman. P.S.: WILD GUESS: $_SERVER['REMOTE_PASSWORD'] ??? Nope, tried dumping $_SERVER, $_ENV and $_REQUEST upon cancelling the authentication, nothing useful in there. It says in a comment to the manual that the authdata is in $_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'] and you can either base64_transcode it (or whatever the function is called) or use apache's ModRewrite but I can't confirm that, maybe the person that suggested it was using apache2, in any case it didn't work. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

If your version of GD supports GIFs (which not all do), then it's almost as simple as changing every place you see the string jpeg to gif. Look in the online manual for the image functions. You'll see reference to the ones here (such as imagecreatfromjpeg()) and also ones for PNGs and GIFs and a few others.

Symbulos Partners wrote: I looked at php pattern (www.phppatterns.com). I did not understand it well. Is that supposed to be pattern as in software development pattern? If so why the uml diagrams are not there? They are design patterns for code. But the design patterns there are more micro than your typical UML (though I suppose you could diagram the design using UML if you really want). Think of those patterns as a blueprint for building a class. While your problem at hand is unique, there are repeatable solutions (patterns) that you can use and re-use to solve those unique patterns. *That* is what design patterns are all about. For example A sample Strategy pattern for form validation. What does that mean? Form validation is a problem you will have over and over again. The strategy pattern is a *repeatable solution* to that problem. So you can use the Strategy pattern to solve your form validation problem the first time around. Then the next time you need to validate a form you say hey, wait a minute, I know how to solve this problem! Poof! Light bulbs go on, angels sing and the beer flows like water. Better yet: if you're careful about the way you design your Strategy class, then you can re-use it for future projects. You become more efficient because now you have this code base that you can re-use. Easily. *Hopefully*. ;) It takes a lot of practice to get good at this and even then you will end up scrapping designs later. I am confused. Hopefully you're less confused now. To summarize: if you have a repeatable problem with a single answer that you can use to answer that problem then design patterns are A Good Thing.

[PHP] executed script URL
I'm firt time here so hello everybody I have some skill in php coding so don't worry, I will no boring with stupid question. Due to I'm unable to test my app on all http servers with all configs I need to know is it possible to get from PHP engine information about executed script URL (not file system path). Now what I'm investigated It's began since I cannot use relative path for Location header on IIS servers. It must contains URI. I cannot build the URL with $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] because it not always returns relative to server path (due to server configuration it sometimes returns full URL) building URL using method described in documentation comments: $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] + $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] is good until the system is started with embeded php. If php runs as cgi, $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] returns path co cgi.exe $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] and $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'] are filesystem based variables, and are useless because we still have no information about URL path related to server base URL. So, is it possible to get this URL automaticly, or I will have add variable with fixed URL into config file of system I'm working on. best regards -- ***Media-IT Micha Kousznik *** *** IT networks - databases - multimedia *** ***[EMAIL PROTECTED] *** *** http://www.media-it.net *** -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Bug in look-behind assertions in PCRE patterns ?
Dear All
Is this a bug ?
I'm using look-behind assertions within preg_match()
to ignore certain combinations of patterns. E.g. from
ref. manual is: (?!foo)bar matches bar but only
if it's not preceded by foo.
Here's my test script:
$line = '$res = foobar(ddd, dfdf);';
if (preg_match(/(?!foo)(bar)/, $line, $matches)) {
echo Should NOT match foobar, but found: .$matches[1];
}
$line = '$res = $bar(ddd, dfdf);';
if (preg_match(/(?!\$)(bar)/, $line, $matches)) {
echo Should NOT match \$bar, but found: .$matches[1];
}
In the first preg_match() is correctly ignores the foobar
function name. However the second preg_match() does NOT
ignore the $bar as I expected.
I converted this to Perl and it correctly ignores both!
Is this a bug, or am I missing something ?
using PHP-4.3.10 + apache 1.3.33 + fc 1

embedded PHP variables. Therefore if you want a literal $ inside a
double-quoted
string you have to escape it, as you have done. However, the $ character is
ALSO
a preg metacharacter (matches end of line). This means that you must also
escape it
for the preg parser as well, so you need to escape it twice, by putting another
literal backslash behind it:
if (preg_match(/(?!\\\$)(bar)/, $line, $matches)) {
Either that or you can use single quotes instead of double quotes:
if (preg_match('/(?!\$)(bar)/', $line, $matches)) {
Either one will work.

I think the way you want to solve this problem is to create a customized

function mail_to_admin($msg) {

[PHP] Fedora-Apache2-PHP exec() failure
Hi all,
I'm having the same problem as Jim Poserina. Richard pointed out some
things to try. Here's my story.
We installed Fedora 3 on a new box. Then we installed Apache 2 and
PHP 4.3.9 from the RPMs that came on the CDs. Pretty much everything
works as expected, except the exec() functions do not work in the web
server. There is no error message displayed in the browser or in the
error_log of apache. Here's the script:
?php
$x = exec(/bin/pwd, $y, $z);
echo brx is ; var_dump( $x );
echo bry is ; var_dump( $y );
echo brz is ; var_dump( $z );
?
Here is the output:
x is string(0)
y is array(0) { }
z is int(127)
If I run the php interpreter from the command line, exec() does work
ok. I can turn safe mode on and define a safe_mode_exec_dir and copy
/bin/pwd to it and then run that and the command line interpreter
honors that setting ok. The web page result doesn't change though. No
error message, no output. Just the 127 (-1?)
So, what do I have to change in my setup to get the exec functions to
work in the web server?
Thanks,

I can get five records on a page with a LIMIT statement, however, I can not get it to show the first five, then put a next link to the next 5 and so on. Since you're already using limit you're doing better than most. At this point you can do one of two things: 1. When the search is first executed get a count of all available records and display only the ones you want on your page. On each subsequent page (next/previous) return, using the LIMIT clause, only those records you need. With this technique you'll be able to show the user how many total pages there are instead of the using guessing as to when they'll reach the end of their search results. If you don't have a lot of results you might not care to go this route. One requirement with this option is that you must pass the total number of records during each next/previous page transition. This is to tell the page that you've already done the initial look up. 2. Use the LIMIT clause to return only the records you need. This is what you seem to be doing already. The only other piece to your puzzle is to send the starting point for the LIMIT clause on each page change. For the first page you probably had SELECT ... FROM ... LIMIT 0,5. Considering we're on the first page the previous link will not be clickable since we can't go back any further. However, the next link will pass the value 5 to the page so that the limit clause knows to start at record 5 on the next pass. i.e. SELECT ... FROM ... LIMIT 5,5. So... Page 0: previous a href=page.php?start=5next/a Page 1: a href=page.php?start=0previous/a a href=page.php?start=10next/a Page 2: a href=page.php?start=5previous/a a href=page.php?start=15next/a etc. Of course, you'll need to pass all your search criteria (and any other data you need) within each link as well.

[PHP] Insertion of integer in a database
Hi folks,
Problem is fairly simple, but how can I insert integer in an SQL statement?
So, I only had strings, but now I have introduced a timestamp column (bigint
to cover the milleseconds), and I have the following statement:
$queryInsert = INSERT INTO mytables (..., timestamp) VALUES (';
$queryInsert .= ...; // several columns
$queryInsert .= ', ';
$queryInsert .= time() . ');
$result = mysql_query($queryInsert);
This is not working as time() returns an integer and .= only works with
strings!
How can I cope with that?
Thanks.

Why not use VARCHAR instead? Timestamp doesn't need to be numeric does
it? For sure it's not required to be numeric.
and I have the following statement:
$queryInsert = INSERT INTO mytables (..., timestamp)
VALUES ('; $queryInsert .= ...; // several columns

('$valueA'
, '$valueB'

[PHP] session questions
Hi, I am new to session of php. I need pass the form content from the the first page all the way down to the last page to process it.

[PHP] how to write IF statement for login script
Hi,
I have a login script which has worked fine in the past, however i need
to change the IF statement. Basically all i want it to do is verify
that $squadnum variable is inbetween 1-98 or is 99. I'm not even
entirely sure if i need to use the ereg function and i dont think the
1-98 bit is formatted correctly, any help would be much appreciated.
Heres the code i have so far:
if (ereg(1-98, $squadnum)) { // users with id 1-98 should get sent to
squad page
header(Location: squad.php);
} else if(ereg(99, $squadnum)) { // 99 is the id number of the
site administrator
header(Location: admin.php);
} else {
header(Location: login.php);
}

[PHP] Preorder Modified Tree Traversal
Hi all, I'm trying to use pmtt to display a windows explorer style view of products in a database. If anyone is familiar with pmtt could you send me an email, I'm looking for some help. I built some code to pull the Levels out of the database, I need some help tracking which level the user is clicking on so that I can create a drill-down scenario. I know this can most likely be achieved more easily using the adjacent tree method, but I need something a bit more robust than that. Let me know if you have created any systems that are drill-down style menus or whatnot, I'm interested in the methods you used to achieve your success. Thanks All!
