A month is an imprecise measure, and adding them together will get you an even more imprecise result. Deal with it -- that's just the way it is. Cheers! And now you tell me how the strtotime function tells what to use either 28 days or 31 days or 4 3/87 days. It's very simple. It uses the same day-of-the-month you start from: 1st gets you the 1st; 15th gets you the 15th; 31st gets you 31st or equivalent). Put another way, +1 month adds as many days as there are days in the starting month; +2 months adds as many days as there are in the starting month and the one after (starting in Jan: 31+28 = 59 -- but starting in, say, Jul: 31+31 = 62); and so on. Most of the time this gives you exactly what you want -- it's only when you ask starting from the 29th, 30th or 31st of a month, and the destination month is shorter, that it causes any kind of problem. Since this is a very small, well-defined range of dates, it's fairly simple to deal with it -- once you know you need to!! Cheers!

[PHP] Problems with realpath()
Hi, My hosting isp just upgraded from 4.3.1 to 4.4.1, and some of the tools I use (from InterAKT) no longer work. After doing quite a bit of research, I've seen a few bugs regarding realpath(), but none related to 4.4.1. When I try the following: ?php echo phpversion() . \n; echo dirname(__FILE__) . \n; echo realpath(__FILE__); ? With version 4.4.0, I get the following answer: 4.4.0 /web /web/realpath.php But on version 4.4.1 I get a fatal error: 4.4.1 /data/... -- different server, therefore different path, of course Fatal error: Call to undefined function: realpath() in /data/...). I'm too much of a newbie to know what to do on my own. Is this something my ISP has turned off?

[PHP] form variables issue
Hi folks, I'm sure it is a very simple question for you but I'm getting almost crazy. I've got a simple form with several form objects, one of them is a text field. After submitting the form if one of the form objects hasn't been modified I will show the same form but keeping the data previously introduced. My problem is the text field, I can't show any special characters again, even if there was any space only the first word is shown, etc. I've been playing with different function like urldecode, urlencode, stripslashes, htmlspecialchars, etc. but couldn't show the same text. Do you know how I can fix this? Thanks a lot, David. Note that magic_quotes_gpc is enabled. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Question about C++ like macros on PHP
Hi list,
For debugging purposes I want to send to a function the line and file
where it is called. The problem is that I want these parameters to be
added to function as default parameters (changing all function calls
would not be an option for me)
function my_func( $param, $line = __LINE__, $file = __FILE__ )
{
...
}
won't work as it always gets the file and line where function is defined.
Also I don't want to change all function calls to put __LINE__ and
__FILE__ parameters.
I looked into assert too, but I have to change again all function calls
to be assert( my_func(...) ); which again will be a pain in the a...
as this function is often called in every scripts...
Any1 has any ideea about it?
Thnx,
Andrei

I was referring here to a note on php.net -
For those upgrading from PHP 4 to PHP 5 there are a number of things
that are different about strtotime that I have NOT seen documented
elsewhere, or at least not as clearly. I confirmed these with two
separate fresh installations of PHP 4.4.1 and PHP 5.1.1.
5) Some uppercase and mixed-case strings no longer parse correctly. In
php4 Yesterday would parse correctly. In php5 Yesterday will return
the infamous 1969 date. This is also true of Tomorrow and Today.

[PHP] Class constructor
Hi,
I'm writing a simple class. In order to be compatible with php4 and php5 I've
done this :
class test{
function Test(){
//This will be called in PHP4
}
function __construct(){
//This will be called in PHP5
$this-Test();
}
}
Is this a solution ? Is there a better way ?

Re: [PHP] Class constructor
Georgi, Drop __construct, PHP5 will call Test() anyway. From http://uk.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.decon.php: For backwards compatibility, if PHP 5 cannot find a __construct() function for a given class, it will search for the old-style constructor function, by the name of the class.

I was referring here to a note on php.net -
For those upgrading from PHP 4 to PHP 5 there are a number of things
that are different about strtotime that I have NOT seen documented
elsewhere, or at least not as clearly. I confirmed these with two
separate fresh installations of PHP 4.4.1 and PHP 5.1.1.
5) Some uppercase and mixed-case strings no longer parse
correctly. In
php4 Yesterday would parse correctly. In php5 Yesterday
will return
the infamous 1969 date. This is also true of Tomorrow and Today.
Oh, that does seem wrong -- have you checked the bugs database / reported it as
a bug?
Cheers!

Barry ok i understand now, that is fairly fd up if you ask me, the documentation should state this side affect, one month should be one month from that date not +31 days, if i wated +31 days i would ask for it :) Well, it's not always 31 days from now -- that depends on the month! For strtotime(), +1 month is always the same day-of-the-month in the next month -- so in some months that's 31 days away, others it's 30 days away, and in February it's 28 or 29 days away. The problem comes when you ask for +1 month (or next month) from the 31st of a long month -- do you mean the last day of next month or do you mean the equivalent of 31st of next month? strtotime() takes the latter approach, but of course that's not always what you want. In those cases, you just have to beware and check your answer -- if the month component ends up 2 months away, instead of 1, then you need to adjust your answer back the appropriate number of days. Personally, I find mktime() more suited to this task than strtotime() as you're working with specific day/month/year numbers, but use whatever you find most comfortable. Cheers!

[PHP] Problems with GZIPped content in some cases?!?
Hi all,
Firstly, I'm new to this list, so I'm hoping I'm not flogging a dead
horse with this question, and I also hope I'm not inadvertently breaking
any list etiquete in any way...
Should this be the case, I apologise in advance. :P
Alright, with that out of the way, I'll post my actual question:
I find myself with very limited time to fix a bug in my code regarding
explicit GZIP compression. The server on which it runs (Debian Linux,
PHP 4.1.2) does not have the output handler set to ob_gzhandler, nor
does it have the zlib.compression directive set to on.
Now, when using the (shortened for brevity) below code I was given
previously for this, I run into the following weird behaviour:
-It works for most people.
-For some people, their browser prompts them that it wants to download
an application of type PHP.
-For yet some other people, the shown page seems to only contain a lot
of garbled (GZIPped, I suppose...) data.
I have previously seen weird things like this happen with GZIP
(particularly when enabling it via the php.ini directives AND then
trying to do so explicitly with code like the code posted here), but in
this case I'm not certain what the exact source of the problem is (I'm
guessing something with the headers is off or so)...
Then: this sounds like something that other developers will previously
have run into, so I'm hoping someone knows the definitive answer, or at
least some good pointers for solving it...
So, if someone has any ideas, can they please let me know (off-list in
case the reply is deemed off-topic for this list)?
Thank you all kindly in advance, and with kind regards,
Olaf Greve

This is surely a browser problem.

I have created the gzips locally and sended it to them.

Re: [PHP] Re: Problems with GZIPped content in some cases?!?
Hi Barry (and others), Thanks for your answer! This is surely a browser problem. I already feared as much... The nasty thing is that due to this some of the end users of our client are losing confidence in the way the application works. Disabling GZIP is not really what I want to do either, as some pages alone comprise about 1MB (!) of pure HTML...:D However... I have of course also been RTFM-ing a good bit, and I'm now trying the far simpler per page override of the output buffer by using the following function call: ob_start(ob_gzhandler); This seems to enforce GZIP compression correctly (I've performed a socket call and analysed the headers and data, and it is GZIPped alright, and the header for GZIP compression is set as well), so I have just informed our client that I would like them to test it again. I will keep the list posted as well to let you know if it works correctly now or not...

Yes, but 1 apple is 1 apple is 1 apple. 1 month can be 28 days, or 31 days, or anything in between. 2 months can be anything from 59 to 62 days. A month is an imprecise measure, and adding them together will get you an even more imprecise result. Deal with it -- that's just the way it is. Cheers!

[PHP] html forms and php
Greetings all,
Currently I have a form that has two lists that contain options.
I use javacript to dynamically move options from one select list to another.
All this works fine...
this is the select:
select name=trucklist size=12 style=width: 150px multiple
option value=LT680LT680/option
option value=LT685LT685/option
option value=LT690LT690/option
option value=LT695LT695/option
option value=LT700LT700/option
option value=LT705LT705/option
/select
Now I wish to post all the options from one list to another page. So I
select all the options in that list and hit the submit button.
Obviously, a select list, will return each value with the same name to the
second web page. Therefore we can only capture the last option posted.
To resolve this we have to create an array out of our select name:
select name=trucklist[] size=12 style=width: 150px multiple
I added the square brakets to the name...now when I select all the options
on the list I can read all values individually.
Here is problem...my javascripts have stopped working, I can't move options
from one list to the next. Here is the javascript I use currently...I would
like help in modifing it so that it may work while using the brakets on the
name of the select:
Thanks a bunch for the help!! Always appreciated
First the two list that transmit the options back and forth: (javascript
below)
select name=trucklist size=12 style=width: 150px multiple
option value=LT680LT680/option
option value=LT685LT685/option

select name=reportinglist[] size=12 style=width: 150px multiple
here is the javascript:
function Move(fromList, toList){
var tempArray = new Array();
var x = 0;
//looping through source element to find selected options
for (var i = 0; i fromList.length; i++) {
if (fromList.options[i].selected) {
//need to move this option to the 'to' list
var selectionLen = toList.length++;
toList.options[selectionLen].text =
fromList.options[i].text;
toList.options[selectionLen].value =
fromList.options[i].value;
}
else {
//storing options that stay to recreate selected trucks
var tempValues = new Object();
tempValues.text = fromList.options[i].text;
tempValues.value = fromList.options[i].value;
tempArray[y] = tempValues;
y++;
}
}
//resetting length of 'from' list

//looping through temp array to recreate intial selection

Re: [PHP] html forms and php
Philippe,
I recommend using an ID, instead of the NAME attribute to refer to the
various elements. This ought to solve your problem.

Keep the trucklist[] as the select list NAME. This will allow PHP to
work.
Add an ID to the select list:
select id=trucklist name=trucklist[] size=12 style=width:
150px multiple
Now modify your JavaScript to use this ID instead of the form element
name when moving.
function Move(fromListID, toListID)
{
fromList = document.getElementById(fromListID);
toList = document.getElementById(toListID);
etc etc
You can now access the fromList select list in the usual way.

Rich

I have of course also been RTFM-ing a good bit, and I'm now trying the far simpler per page override of the output buffer by using the following function call: ob_start(ob_gzhandler); This seems to enforce GZIP compression correctly (I've performed a socket call and analysed the headers and data, and it is GZIPped alright, and the header for GZIP compression is set as well), so I have just informed our client that I would like them to test it again. I will keep the list posted as well to let you know if it works correctly now or not...

[PHP] image uploads
Hello, Is there something special about php and images that nobody told me... I'm writing a image gallery but I have run to serious trouble with it. I have one page with form in it. Form's action is $PHP_SELF. In the form there is just one file field called image. I test if there's users image to handle with if (isset($img)) if there's one. I greate two new images using imagecreatefromjpeg() imagecreatetruecolor() imagecopyresampled() in two different functions. At the end of both functions there's imagedestroy($img). After that the both image information is stored to DB and, if succeful, at the end I do unset($img) to clear the old image variable from memory. Both new images are created OK and DB update works OK. But nothing else doesn't work. I don't know what I have to do to prevent the image from realoading to server second time if user hits browser refresh button. The same image is uploaded every time the user hits refresh. Another thing is that Opera stopped co-operation with this page once and for all. It just freezes after the page call's itself. IE and Firefox doesn't. I Really need some help Thanks -Will -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Put another way, +1 month adds as many days as there are days in the starting month; +2 months adds as many days as there are in the starting month and the one after (starting in Jan: 31+28 = 59 -- but starting in, say, Jul: 31+31 = 62); and so on. Most of the time this gives you exactly what you want -- it's only when you ask starting from the 29th, 30th or 31st of a month, and the destination month is shorter, that it causes any kind of problem.

But, finally, I wonder if I shouldn't use XML files instead ? Is it possible, directly, to make a SQL request on a XML file ? How much data are you storing and how fast do you need it? If you're doing heavy database type queries, then just use mySQL. XML is kind of a PITA to use IMHO. You have to set up DOM Objects and all this crap, then loop over nodes and use xpaths and watch out for #text elements and it's just messy. I'm forced to use XML for part of a project @ work, and I'm always grateful when I can switch back to using a database and SQL as God intended it to be. ;-p However, if you're just storing some basic configs or preferences, then I would suggest looking into a much simpler (and universal): http://www.php.net/parse_ini_file -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

No. :-) I'm writing a image gallery but I have run to serious trouble with it. I have one page with form in it. Form's action is $PHP_SELF. In the form there is just one file field called image. Add the ENCTYPE=multipart/form-data to the FORM tag, if you don't have it. I test if there's users image to handle with if (isset($img)) You mean isset($image), right?... The name above is image... Post source code snippets. if there's one. I greate two new images using imagecreatefromjpeg() imagecreatetruecolor() imagecopyresampled() in two different functions. At the end of both functions there's imagedestroy($img). After that the both image information is stored to DB Storing the image in the DB is probably not a Good Idea for a variety of reasons. There is a highly-optimized much more mature specialized database specifically designed for large-file operations (LFO)... It's called the file system :-) and, if succeful, at the end I do unset($img) to clear the old image variable from memory. Both new images are created OK and DB update works OK. OK... But nothing else doesn't work. You'd have to give us a lot more than doesn't work... We've got nothing to work on here. I don't know what I have to do to prevent the image from realoading to server second time if user hits browser refresh button. The same image is uploaded every time the user hits refresh. Well, yeah, if they upload the same image again, then you're going to get it again. If you don't want to allow that, then include a unique token http://php.net/uniqid in the form you send them, and when they upload the first image, mark that token as used and don't let them do it again. You could also do a binary-safe string comparison of the new image with the images already in the database -- That would be slower, but would dis-allow somebody from filling out the form again with a new token and uploading the same image a second time. Another thing is that Opera stopped co-operation with this page once and for all. It just freezes after the page call's itself. IE and Firefox doesn't. Opera freezing up is probably a separate problem entirely.

[PHP] CR \ LFs being represented as ascii characters in output of mail()
Hi All,
I'm having an odd problem with formatting of line feeds in an email my
site automatically sends to me when someone comments on one of my blog
entries.
For some reason \r\n characters are coming through exactly like that
in the email, and yet the same value being stored in the backend MySQL
database seems to represent the carriage-return \ line-feed characters
as it should.
A typical example of the value when sent in the email would be:
Lol, hi Duncan.\r\n\r\nIt\'s possible that this post once had some comments. I
lost most of PT at one point when my host had a harddrive crash, and salvaged a
lot of entries from local copies on my computer, and notes I\'d scribbled in my
journals and so on.\r\n\r\nStill, it\'s great to see you commenting on the post
that made you a legend on PT!\r\n\r\nMuch warmth,\r\n\r\nMr Banderas
The odd thing is that the rest of the email is correctly interpreting
line-feed characters, it's only the value entered on the comment form
that represents CR \ LFs as normal characters.
I'm not sure if this is the culprit, but because my remote host for this
site has magic_quotes_gpc on, and my local setup doesn't, I run the
following function every time a page is requested where form processing
is performed:
function traverse ( $arr )
{
if ( !is_array ( $arr ) )
return;
foreach ( $arr as $key = $val )
is_array ( $arr[$key] ) ? traverse ( $arr[$key] ) : (
$arr[$key] = stripslashes ( $arr[$key] ) );
}
Can anyone give me any thoughts on how to represent these CR \ LF
characters properly in the email?
Many thanks,
Murray

RE: [PHP] image uploads
The main reason I don't like storing the images in the DB is because File system is much more fast then DB. FS and the web server know How to cache images while using the DB makes you access the DB for each and every picture. It's also harder to maintain cause you don't have a physical file you can Move from place to place or from dir to dir. Or just look at a bunch of Random images like you would in a directory. From my point of view there has to be a very good reason to put images Inside a DB instead of in the file system.

Do you know how I can fix this? The first big problem is that you are outputting stuff like this: input name=foo value=this value has whitespace so is not a value / instead of this: input name=foo value=this value has whitespace but quotes matter / You should call http://php.net/htmlentities on the data right before you print it into the HTML page. ?php $value_html = htmlentities($value)? input name=foo value=?php echo $value_html? / Note that magic_quotes_gpc is enabled. In that case, you need to call http://php.net/stripslashes on the data before you do anything with it, except to cram it into a database. magic_quotes_gpc *ONLY* made sense in the context of the early days of PHP when 99.999% of the data was just getting tossed into a MySQL database and there were a lot less Bad Guys around -- when it was all guestbooks and lovey-dovey surfers.

In the htmlareas site there's a comment: Both Mozilla (includes FireFox) and Internet Explorer include a way to make sections of a page editable. IE has the MSHTML Editing Platform, and Mozilla has Midas. So what about Opera? Are there wysiwyg editors for Opera? The one time I tested Htmlarea it only worked on IE. Second.
