Hello

For example:
Is it good to throwing user input errors with throw new Exception().
I'm not sure if I understand how you mean by this but it sounds to
me that your asking if you should use exception catching vs if
statments:
try {
is_valid_username($username);
catch (Exception $e) {
$errors[] = $e-errorMessage;
}
imo, programming like that doesn't make sense, exceptions are more
designed for errors in assumed succesfull code. Consider:
?php
try {
$dbh = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test', '', '');
$dbh-setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$sql = select bar from foo;
$stmt = $dbh-prepare($sql);
$stmt-execute();
}
catch (PDOException $e) {
echo $e, \n;
exit();
}
// some code to use the valid $stmt object
?
There are two places where that code will issue an exception:
1. if a connection to the db fails, which it shouldn't
2. if the column bar doesn't exit of table foo doesn't exist
which should exist (unless the DBA decides to rename the table
or column.
After the catch statement, I know that $stmt is going to be valid
and can check for valid results or not.
The use of the try catch is to ensure that something that is
suppose to happen 100% of the time succesfully, if it doesn't we
have an exceptional case and should bail out in a friendly
manner.

Hi Curt,
Thanks for your reply. So basically I do something like:
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc-loadHTML($file);
$p = $doc-getElementsByTagName('p');
How would then wrap the following around each p tag:
form name=form target=_parent
action=/index.php?action=edit_paragraphfile='.$_GET['file'].'
method=post
input type=hidden name=old_html
value='.htmlentities($matches[0]).'
pa href=javascript:;
onclick=document.form.submit();'.$matches[1].'/a/p
/form
BTW if its not obvious I am trying to create a CMS that lets users edit
anything within a p tag!

[PHP] OpenDocument .odt to .xhtml Parser
With the release of OpenOffice.org 2 came the ability to export .odt to .xhtml. As most probably know, the OOo .odt native file format is basically gzipped XML. Also OOo comes with .xsl files which are used to transform the .odt file to .xhtml files when they are exported. Does anyone know of any projects being worked on which use the OOo .xsl XSLT files to transform .odt files to .xhtml files? The type of code I'm specifically looking for would be an API written in PHP 5 that can basically take any .odt file and spit out a .xhtml file using the .xsl files that ship with OOo (can be found in share\xslt\export\xhtml in the root install dir on a Windows install, not sure about Linux). Does anyone know if any code is out there to do this, or if any projects exist to address this need. I've done a little Google research on this topic, but haven't found much, so I figured someone on this list might know where to point me for more info, or can point me to people who are working on this. If no one is doing something like this is anyone interested in working on the with me? Thanks for any replies. I'm not an XML whiz, and frankly don't want to be one, so I'm hoping there is some code out there that already addresses this.
