This is probably a simple question, but I can't seem to find the  
answer online.


I'm using this query:

$connection = select * from connection, pr WHERE connection.area_id  
= '$gateway_link' and connection.pr_id = pr.id;


Both tables have a field called ID but they have different  
information in them. $row['id'] gets me the one from the table called  
pr but I need to call the ID from the table connection.

doing SELECT * FROM bla is not recommended, better to actually specify _just_

SELECT c.id AS cid, p.id AS pid FROM connection AS c, pr AS p WHERE ... 

this stuff can be found in the mysql docs.

You have now stumbled into ONE of many reasons why SELECT * is just
Bad Code. :-)

Figure out which fields you REALLY need and specify them by name in
place of *

In addition, to actually solve your problem, you'll be able to do
something like:

SELECT pr.id as pr_id, connection.id as connection_id, area_id, ...

You can useas XYZ to sort of rename any column you want on the
fly, and that is what it will be called.

It's also really handy when you have formulas in your select:

SELECT (x.size + y.size) as sum, x.id, y.id 

[PHP] Modest Module: perror (exec error codes)

2006-04-20 Thread Richard Lynch
I've written my first external Module for PHP: perror

It provides functionality I've always felt was missing in PHP.

I'm particularly interested in feedback from anybody who has written
PHP extensions of their own -- I'm sure there's room for improvement
in my very rusty C skills!

Here's why I wrote it.  Consider this:
?php
  exec(ls /root, $output, $error);
  if ($error) die(OS Error: $error);
  echo nl2br(implode('', $output));
?

Wouldn't it be nice if PHP knew the error message that went with
Error code number 1?

Well, install this 'perror' module, and PHP does know :-)

As a special bonus, since it was pretty much the exact same thing, I
threw in the codes for signals as well.

A quick phpize and compile and a php.ini change, and you're set!

I can't promise no problems, but it's pretty dang simple, really, so
should be pretty safe.  And you can always comment out php.ini
extension setting pretty quickly if it causes problems.

See sample output (live, actually) and download the source:

http://www.l-i-e.com/perror/

PS
*HUGE* thanks to the folks on PHP-Dev who put up with my bumbling
through the compiling process for an extension on a shared server!

Call me crazy, but I think you should post the actual error messages
-- the first few, at least.

C compiler error messages are frequently arcane, incredibly terse, and
complete gibberish to anybody other than a C programmer...

But they are rarely unclear and undetailed, once you have figured out
what the error message means the first time you encounter it.

'Course, I probably won't be the guy who understand the message

 If I run /usr/local/bin/php -v at the command line I get nothing.

 How do I get the PHP CLI working?

I don't remember at which version CLI became installed by default with
Apache, but if you still have your config.nice script you'd want to
check that, and the config.log and config.debug to see what happened.

It's possible you just installed it in some different directory...

Something like:
locate php | grep bin
might be useful for finding that.

You could also download the source and install just the CLI pretty
quickly and easily.  Or you may want to upgrade anyway :-)

[PHP] issue with MySQL procedure and a result set

2006-04-20 Thread Alain Roger
Hi,

I'm trying to run a MySQL Procedure from one of my PHP page.

1. the procedure works perfectly under MySQL (it gives the correct results),
so no issue from this side.
2.user is able to connect without any issue to MySQL RDBMS, so no issue from
this side.

Here is what i've as error message when PHP page is displayed :
PROCEDURE test1 can't return a result set in the given context

i've searched on internet and i've found 2 intereseting information :
1. i should update MyODBC connector. But i do not understand it as it work
perfectly under MySQL query browser or under another Query tool.
2. i should add a flag in my command : mysql_connect();
this flag should be something like MULTI_CLIENT_. After controling the
PHP documentation (v5.1 and 4.6) this flag does not exist...

here is my stored procedure test1 (this procedure as 1 IN parameter named
criteria


BEGIN
   DECLARE crit VARCHAR(256) DEFAULT ;
   SET crit = CONCAT(%, criteria, $);
   SELECT * FROM persons WHERE login LIKE crit;
END
...

So what should i do ?

thanks a lot for help.

Re: [PHP] how should MS Access DATETIME be handled in PHP?

2006-04-20 Thread John Wells
I don't know if MS Access will behave the same, but in MySQL you can
have a query like so:

SELECT *, DATE_FORMAT(end_date, '%d %m %Y') as end_date_formatted FROM projects;

And it will retrieve all columns from your projects table, plus the
extra one you've created on the fly, and it will be named
end_date_formatted.

 Sure.  I always appreciate various opinions.  I've checked with an Access
 expert.  It can be done for Access like Format([DateFieldName],  
 ).  But if fields of date type should be formated as needed in the
 query, there is one situation in which I'm not clear how that would work.
 Say, I need to query all the fields from a table which has quite a fields.
  Some of the fields are of some kind of date type.  Enumerating the fields
 is not feasible.

 SELECT * from table;

 So in this case, how should the date fields be formated in the query?

 Thanks,

Tell us the part about where having them copied into $_SESSION makes
your software better... :-)

Database - Menu is a very simple and common web design.

Database - $_SESSION - Menu only adds an extra step, AFAICT.

Are you able to completely avoid connecting to the database on many
subsequent pages this way?  That could be Good Code.

Or are you just avoiding a single simple query that, with indexed
fields, should run in a splintered second?  That's probably Bad Code.

$_SESSION data is not free.

It's not even cheaper than MySQL data, as a general rule -- though it
might be in specific cases.

Simplify, grasshopper.

The method behind the madness here, is that I am only pulling the data 
once from the db throughout the whole session. This means that all the 
user info is available on every page they visit. I can also
then identify on each page that loads if a user has signed in and a 
session is present. Do you think I am going about this in the wrong way?

Cuz pretty much everyting in Common Lisp is an Object.

'Course, it's even WAY older than PHP, so you won't, but there it is.

I am curious to know what you think this should do:

Exactly what is the length of a number?

Is 5 longer than 4?

How about -5?

Is that the same length as 5?

Sheesh!

All the user info? Wouldn't it be enough to have a link on that User?
So that you can get the information you need rather than have all stored 
in a Session.

Btw. what would you do if the User starts updating his Profile.
Wouldn't it be easier to just update the Data-Field of the User rather 
than updating session and Data-Field?

[PHP] Execute script and redirect

2006-04-20 Thread Peter Lauri
Best groupmember,

 

I have a form that is being filled out. This is the process:

 

1.  Fill out form and click submit
2.  Script validates data
3.  Data is being sent to external source via Web Service
4.  A file is being downloaded (redirects to files location)

 

The problem is that #3 is taking around 15 seconds to complete because the
Web Service is very slow. I would like to run #3 in the background and
directly jump to #4.

 

Is this possible?

 

A little confused :)

Yes. you might use the shell execution for that OR fopen() without url

There are lots of ways to do that...

Even assuming you only want currently-unemployed with nothing better

enough of their skillset to be of much value.

A strong portfolio and years of experience are better indicators.

Not to mention that the code might win the contest, but does that
make it good code?  Guess you can write the rules any way you want to
cover that, but so what?  Does being able to code once to your rules
mean my code is always that neat and clean?

Seems to me you'd be better off winnowing down the candidate pool
first, then hiring the best on a trial basis for a few weeks/months. 
If it doesn't work out, start calling down the list of second best and
so on and give them a trial run.

That said, there MAYBE is some kind of introspection function in
whatever you are using to find out which fields are date type and
which are not.

PHP and MySQL have it as:
http://php.net/mysql_field_type

So you should be able to come up with a script that:
#1. Examines the table and finds all the fields of type: 'date'
#2. Constructs a query that gets all the fields, but for those of type
'date' wraps Format(date, '-MM-DD HH:II:SS') around them. (Or
whatever you need to get what you want)
#3. Send your programmatically-constructed query to the database to
get the data you want, the way you want it.
#4. Drive-through Burger King.

You're on your own to actually find the functions that do the
introspection, if they exist for Access.  Ain't nobody got enough
money to make me actually use Access.

Re: [PHP] New image already cached.

2006-04-20 Thread Richard Lynch

$image_file = 'foo.jpg';
$random = mt_rand(1, 20);
$url = http://example.com/program/$random/$image_file;;
echo img src=\$url\

In program, if you echo out $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] you will see:
/454398574395/foo.jpg

The number will change, of course.

You can tear that apart and get the foo.jpg part to do whatever you want.

Or, you could have the URL sometimes have 'copyright' in it, and
sometimes not, and merge only when the URL has copyright in it.

You could even pass is paraeters like this:
http://example.com/program/width=200/2343242343/foo.jpg

Take the width=200 and scale the image to be 200 pixels wide.

Here is a real live example where I do this:
http://uncommonground.com/artist_profile/Ellen+Rosner

Right-click on that image of Ellen in the chair and check out that URL.

thumbnail is my PHP script.
target is a max width/height (I scale it proporationally and 200 is
max for both)
credits is the photographer credits from my database.
The rest is the URL of the actual real image I'm dinking with.

Feel free to play with the URL and change the 200 to, say, 100, or
make believe YOU took that photograph.

All just from the URL which, as far as the browser can tell, is a
perfectly valid set of directory paths on my machine, so the browser
can't possibly screw up.  (Rule #1: Never trust the browser.)

And in the main link, artist_profile is the PHP script, and if you
look at the links to the other artists at the bottom of the page,
you'll see that it also uses PATH_INFO to either show an artist by ID
or to search for their name in our database.

If multiple matches are found, the user is asked which one they meant:
http://uncommonground.com/artist_profile/Ellen

If I have the ID, then I know exactly which one to display.

I actually would suggest you go with:

/width=200/ though, instead of /width/200/ as it's easier to code and
have optional parameters using = and / as an arg separator.

I haven't bothered to fix that old script, but that's how I do it
nowadays.

http://example.com/actual_script/57823642346963/copyright/whatever.png

The PHP scritp is actual_script.

You can use .htaccess and ForceType to make Apache run it.

$_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] will have all the parameters you need.

The embedded parameters pretty much give the browser NO opportunity
 to
screw up.



 Richard:

 Far out ! -- I never saw .htaccess and ForceType used before. But it
 works slick in dropping the extension of program.php to program.
 (Now if I can only get my editor to still treat the document as php,
 but that's a different matter).

 However, I don't see how I can generate a random number for a url
 each time an image is needed and have .htaccess and ForceType make
 Apache run it -- do I rewrite. htaccess each time, or what?

 Also, $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] (or in my case
 $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'] ) gives me the path -- so how does that
 fit in?

 Please explain.

 Thanks.

You'll have to mark what's sent and what isn't and be careful not to
run two jobs at once when it's really slow (sending duplicate data)
nor to skip data that didn't safely get sent.

But should do all that anyway in your script.

There might even be functions in the Web Service to make it easy for
you to send a whole BUNCH of records at once, saving a lot of time on
your end.

And, for sure, if all your script has to do is insert to a database
table for step 3, it's gonna be pretty fast.

That was a smart solution. However, my client have not given me access to
the MySQL database at this stage (just doing a small side project of the
clients web site). If you could not take advantage of database and cron job,
what would you do?

PS! I am not sure that my clients host supports cron jobs  DS!

Re: [PHP] issue with MySQL procedure and a result set

 I'm trying to run a MySQL Procedure from one of my PHP page.

 1. the procedure works perfectly under MySQL (it gives the correct
 results),
 so no issue from this side.
 2.user is able to connect without any issue to MySQL RDBMS, so no
 issue from
 this side.

 Here is what i've as error message when PHP page is displayed :
 PROCEDURE test1 can't return a result set in the given context

 i've searched on internet and i've found 2 intereseting information :
 1. i should update MyODBC connector. But i do not understand it as it
 work
 perfectly under MySQL query browser or under another Query tool.

Are you using MyODBC?

Why?!

If you are, then this is probably the problem/solution.

See, what MySQL supports and what MyODBC will support in terms of SQL
and PROCEDURES and whatnot don't have to match up.

So you need the new MyODBC and that's all there is to it.

Or switch to using PHP's mysql() functions.

 2. i should add a flag in my command : mysql_connect();
 this flag should be something like MULTI_CLIENT_. After controling
 the
 PHP documentation (v5.1 and 4.6) this flag does not exist...

Check the MySQL docs.  It's probably a constant in MySQL, not in PHP.

Also just try this:

?php echo MULTI_CLIENT.;?

Only type the real constant name.

If it's not defined in PHP, you'll just see 'MULTI_CLIENT'

If it is defined, it will probably be a number like 15 or 63 or
something.

If it is not defined, you can probably find out what the number is in
the MySQL docs.  If you find out that it is, say, 3, then do:
?php
  define('MULTI_CLIENT...', 3);
?
and just follow the directions about connect.

unless you need to be sure the http server is up and running, it's a 
better way to run your script via a cronjob.

Instead of posting the values forward, you could store it all in a

serialize and unserialize don't modify your variable, but the return 
value is a string or a mixed (which means it can be a very complicated 
structure, or a simple

array, an object, etc).

first_script.php :
$string_from_array = serialize($array);
form action=second_script.php method=post
input type=hidden name=art_siirt_jouk value=$string_from_array
button type=button value=submit
/form

second_script.php :
print_r($POST);
$string = $_POST[art_siirt_jouk];
$array = unserialize($string);

hope this'll help.

Re: [PHP] Best way to start a CRON

2006-04-20 Thread M. Sokolewicz
Actually, you can even use less code to do exactly the same thing 
(since you can EITHER make an excutable file with the shebang, which you 
start doing, but never actually do, OR call php to just read the file 
and execute the code inside it, which you in the end do).


Basically, either:
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q (linux system - location of php bin)
at the top of the file, and make sure the crontab has execute 
permissions on that script,


OR

10 1 * * * root /usr/local/bin/php -q /script/CRONexport.php
and make sure your crontab has read permission on the php file (no need 
for the shebang).


As for the -q, I'm sure you meant HTTP headers and not HTML headers ;) 
(at least, I hope you did)

Hi gang:

While looking for a solution to the Date time Comparison post, I 
came across a function that looked interesting, namely gregoriantojd 
-- see:


http://www.weberdev.com/gregoriantojd

Everything I've read about it says that it works for PHP 3-5. 
However, I'm working in PHP 4.3.1 and calls to that function give me:


Fatal error: Call to undefined function: gregoriantojd()

What's up with that?

RE: [PHP] PHP Script to open phpBB2 accounts

2006-04-20 Thread Weber Sites LTD
Yes, both sites are on the same server but weberdev was built by me
And weberforums is phpBB2. No sense in writing my own forums application.

WeberDev is the main site and has it's own user base and phpBB2 is 
Pretty complex and I didn't have the time to create a single logon. It
Will not be trivial and will need to be maintained with every phpBB2 
Upgrade.

All I want is to open a phpBB account when someone opens one
On WeberDev.

I don't agree that php-general is the wrong place. I looked in the
phpBB forums for this and found something that doesn't currently
Work. On this list there are many php developers that use phpBB
So why not ask them if anyone already did what I did.

It's not like I'm asking anyone to do the work for me. I devoted
Years of my time on WeberDev for the PHP community (it's my
Hobby and not my main workplace) and all I asked was to know
If someone has created a specific PHP script. Btw, I got several
Off line emails asking me to share the solution if I get it.

Anyway, instead of all of these emails, I'll try to do it myself
And hope someone contacts me soon.

 I don't know if MS Access will behave the same, but in MySQL you can
 have a query like so:

 SELECT *, DATE_FORMAT(end_date, '%d %m %Y') as end_date_formatted FROM
 projects;

 And it will retrieve all columns from your projects table, plus the
 extra one you've created on the fly, and it will be named
 end_date_formatted.

Great.  Thanks, John.  Yes, it works for Access as well.

It's not about being overly sensitive, it's about

[PHP] session

2006-04-20 Thread João Cândido de Souza Neto
Hi everyone.

I hope someone here can help me.

When i start a session in a php page, this session receives an unique id.

If you think about this, if i call a session_destroy() in any page and in
the other paga call a session_start() again, it'll receive other unique id.
But it isn't working. Everything above has been executed but the session
id's always the same.

It can be any config var in php.ini?

Thanks for tips.

Maybe it is just me, but I think these types of discussions/debates 
concerning opposing view points on the direction of web programming is 
as imperative to the general PHP community (i.e. this list) as the 
dangers of register globals and magic quotes etc


At least more relevant then the infamous PHP Interview thread a week or

 It can be any config var in php.ini?

Hi

I'm using PHP 4.4.0 (cli) and all of the errors / warnings are written to
file. I can see all of the direct errors but when I have an error inside an
include file the script fails and the error is not shown in the log. I have
to guess 
Where the error is.

Any idea what I'm missing.

Re: [PHP] session

2006-04-20 Thread Martin Alterisio \El Hombre Gris\

It's really that hard to read the whole manual page about session_destroy()?

Quoting the php manual:
In order to kill the session altogether, like to log the user out, the 
session id must also be unset. If a cookie is used to propagate the 
session id (default behavior), then the session cookie must be deleted. 
setcookie()  may be used for that.


In other words session_destroy() is not enough to kill a session.

PS: I just checked the portuguese version of the manual, it seems to be 
outdated (I don't know portuguese but from the examples given and some 
deductive reasoning I'm sure it's either a translation of an old version 
of the manual or a bad translation). If you understand english, rely on 
the english version.

What's there to miss.  The create user logic is centralized and fairly easy
to follow.  If this is too hard for your current situation, you might just
want to pass your user information to the phpBB .php file that processes
user input.  Just another option.  

(I know these aren't the programs, nor the vars I'm just using this
as an example)
phpBB_create.php?user=webdevuserpass=webdevuserpass

Of course you would do this programmatically with variables from your webdev
form.

Run the include file separately and see if it produces an error.  Also
make sure that if you have short open tags=OFF that your include file
uses normal tags.

[PHP] Session contamination?

2006-04-20 Thread Ben Liu
Hello All,

I'm using a single development server to host multiple client
projects, many of which require session management. I've noticed that
sometimes when I test these various web apps (which are simply in
separate sub directories) I get session leakage where logging in and
establishing a session on one app allows me access to (automatically
logs me in) to other app(s) on the same server. Or sometimes a session
variable will be set across all the apps, like $_SESSION['username'].

Is this due to the fact that sessions are established between client
browsers and servers, regardless of directory/sub directory?

What is the best way to avoid/prevent this problem? Should I be using
specific Session ID's or Session names?

Thanks for any help,

- Ben

RE: [PHP] PHP error log

2006-04-20 Thread Weber Sites LTD
Actually I'm not looking for help with the code.
The problem is more of a principle problem.

Because I don't want users to see errors and warnings
When there is a problem all of the errors go to a log file
Instead of the standard output.

As long as the error (any error) occurs in the file I'm
Working on, I can see the error in the error log. If the
Error is in a file I include I don't see the error.

This is not something special for my system. I think
It's a definition in the php.ini to suppress errors to
Standard output and log them to a file instead. 

I have : 

error_reporting  = E_ALL|E_STRICT
display_errors = Off
display_startup_errors = Off
log_errors = On
track_errors = Off
error_log = /usr/local//logs/php_errors (the  Is not the real
path)
warn_plus_overloading = Off

Yes - that's the default behaviour, although if you set

Since you have a fair idea of how weberdev creates users (since you created it)

Or is that not possible.

passing a different/unique value to session_name() should avoid inadvertent
contamination.
[http://php.net/manual/en/function.session-name.php]

Robin's second suggestion of setting the save path can be done with
session_save_path() as well as via ini_set().
[http://php.net/manual/en/function.session-save-path.php]

Robin's first suggestion is the one I would implement first, you can set the
[url]path for which a given session is valid by way of the 
session_set_cookie_params()
function, the path can also be set via ini_set('session.cookie_path', 
'/my/app/example')

note that session_name() and session_save_path() must be called before you
call session_start()

I recommend going through the info at http://php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php
in order to get a better 'feel' of how to use sessions 'properly'

Just create multiple hidden fields

foreach ($arr_siirto AS $key = $value) {

Has much more traffic so it's the side that I want to start
With.

Subject: RE: [PHP] PHP Script to open phpBB2 accounts

The idea of creating a phpBB user when a weberdev one is created has merit,
but I'm not sure I saw anyone recommend doing the opposite?

Since you have a fair idea of how weberdev creates users (since you created
it) why not insert some PHP code into phpBB to create a weberdev account
when someone creates a phpBB account?

Or is that not possible.

having read the whole thread I like to say:

1. we should be paying John Nichel for his comic input (aside from the fact 
that he
has lots of tips/advice/etc as well) - the man makes me laugh again and again
- and in this hectic world we work in that's a good thing.

2. for someone who has been on the list since 1998, taking a knife to phpBB
and integrating a 2-way synchronization wotsit between your user data and 
phpBB's
should be a piece of cake - maybe a big piece but cake none the less.

3. I do know of weberdev because it's often in the list of results when I 
search for
php related stuff - BUT I have also got to know that it's mainly full of 
beginner level
code/tips/etc, that's great for many people starting out in php but those of us 
on this
list who regularly post help/answers ( jokes ;-) it's not the kind of resource 
that of
any use - personally I aspire to write code on the level of people like Derick 
R., Chris S.,
Ilia A et al (to name a few) and not at the level of some kid who can barely 
find his way
to a search engine (that's not directed at you Berber, although there is one 
Indian chap
who is free to feel he is being implied ;-).

4. there is no spoon.
