[PHP] PHP4 static properties - PEAR vs my solution
Hi!
I had a little discussion on a forum topic about static class method and
properties. Somebody there pointed to the PEAR::getStaticProperty()
solution to emulate static properties in PHP4. I was not familiar with
it but its approach seems a little strange for me. It is not really more
than storing static properties in a global array.
I tried to make something better and come out with this solutions, which
I think is much more closer to the philosophy of a static property and
maybe is more elegant (of course this is subjective :)).
I'm curious about your opinion.

This would be Really Nifty, if PHP allowed multiple inheritence so you
could have a mixin class...
Otherwise, however, you have to have a common base class across all
the various class systems in use in your multitude of web
applications, or duplicate the code (ugh!) in each.
So if you have a single base class to throw this into, it's great.
If you have a plethora of code-bases you work with, the global
variable hack is probably more suitable.
YMMV

I can take ANY number I want, and put %u in front of it... That don't make it mean anything. You also need to know the charset it came from to start with, which in the case of MS Word, is not even a standard charset, but some made-up proprietary random assemblege of numbers to characters they found convenient that day.

Point well taken Richard, thanks. I've always been curious, iIs there a point in which adding some number of paths to include_path causes a performance hit? If my application for example is spread out across 6 or 7 folders (controllers, models, library, plugins, scripts, etc etc), is it really better to shove all of those into include_path? There is, of course, a performance hit, in that PHP searches for your include file in each of those paths before it finds the one Depending on server configuration, caching, and hardware, that could be immesurably small for 6 or 7 paths, or it could be a Big Deal. Only you can test on your hardware with your setup. But I would dare to predict that for most users, the performance difference is negligible because you are almost for sure not including enough files to be causing enough operations for it to matter. Sure, you can construct a benchmark to prove that there is a performance difference. But can you construct a real-world test with peak load usage similar to real users that shows a meaningful difference? Cuz you don't really care about a benchmark about a billion includes when your web app never does a billion includes... If you have a directory that has most of the includes in it, put it first, of course -- Surely that would be easy enough to do, and would address any performance issue well enough for a real world setup. Another option is to MAYBE consider combining some of those dirs, and using a filename convention to make it clear which ones are model and which are controller and which are library. And, of course, if you are using a cache, then the search through include_path is only done once per cache-fault. -- Some people have a gift link here. Know what I want?

[PHP] if(), else() problem!
Ave,
code:
$db = dbase_open(osm.dbf, 0);
if ($db) {
$record_numbers = dbase_numrecords($db);
for ($i = 1; $i = $record_numbers; $i++) {
$row = dbase_get_record_with_names($db, $i);
if ($row['PHONE'] == $thekey) {
echo ³found²;
}
else {
echo ³not found²;
}
}
}
The loop reads each row in the database, and checks whether it matches
$thekey or not. If it does, it prints ³found², if it doesn¹t, it prints ³not
found². But this happens for ³each row² in the database. So if there are 100
records, and the program does find a match, I¹ll get 99 ³not found² printed,
and one ³found² printed.
I can easily put an ³exit;² after my echo in the else(), but then it stops
the loop, and doesn¹t go any further.
What do I have to do to get results if the phone matches, print nothing for
rows where it doesn¹t match, but give one single ³not found² if the phone
number does not exist in the database?
The logic is just failing me at this point.

[PHP] image protection
Hi gang: What would be the best way to protect images in a directory from being harvested? I know that when an image is shown to the user, while there are some javascript tricks to deter the user, there is no real way to stop the user from capturing the image, for they already have it. But, is there a way to protect a directory such that an application such as SightSucker (nice program btw), can't retrieve it's contents, while your php script can?

Re: [PHP] if(), else() problem!
Just tried, isn't working! It's doing the same thing that exit; does.
Both
else {
echo Not Found;
break;
}
And
else {
echo Not Found;
exit;
}
Do the exact same thing. It will print not found (because it checks the
first row, and if the phone number is not in the first row), and basically
exit and not go further with the loop.

Re: [PHP] image protection
lurkin' around trying to keep images from others, while still have them shown on yer own page seems a bit futile. watermark 'em. other stuff to do is use flash witch I've never done. (due to PPC restrictions) I've done some of this auto open/close windowing js, witch also includes rightclick disable inside the window; inserting an 1x1 gif ontop, keeping ppl away from direct access of the opened php file with a check of witch location it was accessed from. Insert no-cache in the metadata. This worked on every browser except Opera, witch have some option to disable JS without loosing focus from an window. whereas the gif came in handy This worked on none to eager ppl, while on the other hand; If this image popup was run one time. it could be used one time directly from the address bar due to the browser cache or the session in witch the script were accessed, dunno.

I was using ftp_put to copy such files from upload_temp folder of php to my system own folder and it does not work, i thought it could be because the ftp user has no permission in upload_temp folder of php. Then i tried to use php_chmod to give permissions for the apache user, move_uploaded_files to move such file and ftp_chmod agais to remove permissions.

[PHP] Problem receiving POSTed data
Hi everyone,
So, I'm trying to receive POSTed data which is being sent from Flash
structured as a nested array pictured (conceptually):
id contains (a, b, c)
a contains (prop1 = a1, prop2 = a2, ...)
b contains (prop1 = b1, prop2 = b2, ...)
c contains (prop1 = c1, prop2 = c2, ...)
where a1, a2, b1, b2, c1, c2 are values stored in the keys prop1, prop2 etc.
of their respective arrays. That's the conceptual structure, but that isn't
how the information is passed to PHP from Flash. In Flash (which uses .
notation for arrays), the data is packaged with a LoadVars object (for those
who care) as follows:
postObject.id1
postObject.id1.prop1 = a1
postObject.id1.prop2 = a2
...
postObject.id2.prop1 = b1
postObject.id2.prop2 = b2
...
etc.
I *think* this data *should be* received by PHP (with dots converted to
_ since that's what I've read php does) in the $_POST array as follows:
$_POST contains (id1 - a, id1_prop1 - a1, id1_prop2 - a2, ..., id2 - b,
id2_prop1 - b1, id2_prop2 - b2, ...)
However, that's not what I appear to be getting from the $_POST array. When
I run this code:
/*/
$data = $_POST;
$stuff = \n \n Post contains:;
foreach($data as $prop = $val) {
$stuff .= \n {$prop}: {$val};
}
/*/
and write $stuff to a .txt file, I get the following output:
Post contains:
id1: a

etc etc.
I am really stuck at this point. Does anyone know how multidimensional
information is passed to the $_POST variable? I know it can be done with
HTML forms and arrays, but I'm using flash and so I think my
multidimensional array of information simply gets flattened into a
one-dimensional array when POSTed as a described above (since Flash uses dot
notation for arrays and php changes dots to underscores and just makes it
one long variable name). And that would work fine if that's what it was
doing, but, for some reason, $_POST doesn't seem to be receiving the second
array dimension at all which contains all of my property information (which
should have been flattened into the first dimension).
If that's doesn't make any sense please let me know and I will attempt to
clarify. Otherwise, any and all help is very much appreciated!

Re: [PHP] Problem receiving POSTed data
Hang on - my php code may be working fine. It might be a problem with my
actionscript code - particularly that the LoadVars object I'm using to send
the data might not be able to take multidimensional data (though it
definitely does not say that *anywhere* in the documentation!!). Stupid
actionscript documentation.
Raphael, here is the code I am using (I am iterating through all of the
movieclips in my flash doc and gathering data on their name and position):
/*/
for(var i in _level0) {
if(typeof(_level0[i]) == movieclip) {
data_lv[i] = _level0[i];
data_lv[i].id = _level0[i]._name;
data_lv[i].x = _level0[i]._x;
data_lv[i].y = _level0[i]._y;
}
}
data_lv.sendAndLoad(myScript.php, data_lv, POST);
/**/
The odd thing is that I print out the contents of data_lv and everything is
there as expected in multidimensional form so I thought that was working
fine, but someone on a flash message board just posted saying they thought
LoadVars objects could not handle multidimensional data. So maybe even
though the contents of the object print as expected, it doesn't send as
expected. I'll try this in a completely one-dimensional array from flash to
php and see if it works. If it does, I'll let everyone know.

2006/10/6, Andy Hultgren [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Hi everyone,
So, I'm trying to receive POSTed data which is being sent from Flash
structured as a nested array pictured (conceptually):
id contains (a, b, c)
a contains (prop1 = a1, prop2 = a2, ...)
b contains (prop1 = b1, prop2 = b2, ...)
c contains (prop1 = c1, prop2 = c2, ...)
where a1, a2, b1, b2, c1, c2 are values stored in the keys prop1, prop2
etc.
of their respective arrays. That's the conceptual structure, but that
isn't
how the information is passed to PHP from Flash. In Flash (which uses
.
notation for arrays), the data is packaged with a LoadVars object (for
those
who care) as follows:
postObject.id1
postObject.id1.prop1 = a1
postObject.id1.prop2 = a2
...
postObject.id2.prop1 = b1
postObject.id2.prop2 = b2
...
etc.
I *think* this data *should be* received by PHP (with dots converted to
_ since that's what I've read php does) in the $_POST array as
follows:
$_POST contains (id1 - a, id1_prop1 - a1, id1_prop2 - a2, ..., id2 -
b,
id2_prop1 - b1, id2_prop2 - b2, ...)
However, that's not what I appear to be getting from the $_POST
array. When
I run this code:
/*/
$data = $_POST;
$stuff = \n \n Post contains:;
foreach($data as $prop = $val) {
$stuff .= \n {$prop}: {$val};
}
/*/
and write $stuff to a .txt file, I get the following output:
Post contains:
id1: a
id2: b
id3: c
and that's it! No information at all about id1_prop1, id1_prop2,
id2_prop1,
etc etc.
I am really stuck at this point. Does anyone know how multidimensional
information is passed to the $_POST variable? I know it can be done

PHP does pretty minimal munging of the POST data.
It's unlikely that Flash is sending what you think it's sending.
Even if it is, you have two options:
1. Use HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA (turn it on in PHP) and write your own Flash
array parser in PHP.
2. Convince Flash to POST data more like PHP wants it:
id[a][prop1]=a1id[a][prop2]=a2id[b][prop1]=b1...
#2 will probably be WAY easier, unless Flash is even more broken than
I think. And I think Flash is pretty broken. :-)

select whatever_tables_needed from $db where info=$hastomatch

show it all in a fancy form;

do_woop_that_thing and show something else;

That would only leave me with the $thekey info.
OR, reflecting on yer problem; would there be a possability that $thekey is
not at all valid?
Whereas you would need to add an error if the select renders no hit

The loop reads each row in the database, and checks whether it matches

prints ³not found². But this happens for ³each row² in the database.
So if there are 100 records, and the program does find a match, I¹ll
get 99 ³not found² printed, and one ³found² printed.
I can easily put an ³exit;² after my echo in the else(), but then it
stops the loop, and doesn¹t go any further.
What do I have to do to get results if the phone matches, print
nothing for rows where it doesn¹t match, but give one single ³not
found² if the phone number does not exist in the database?
The logic is just failing me at this point.

Re: [PHP] Problem receiving POSTed data
Problem solved: it was indeed that the flash object did not like
multidimensional data.
I didn't change my PHP code one little bit. But I changed my my
ActionScript code to write the data in a 1-dimensional form as follows:
/*/
for(var i in _level0) {
if(typeof(_level0[i]) == movieclip) {
data_lv[i + _path] = _level0[i];
data_lv[i + _id] = _level0[i]._name;
data_lv[i + _x] = _level0[i]._x;
data_lv[i + _y] = _level0[i]._y;
}
}
data_lv.sendAndLoad(myScript.php, data_lv, POST);
/**/
This works perfectly and php receives all of the data correctly. Thanks
guys for your thoughts. I'm going to be posting an addition to the online
ActionScript documentation to hopefully help others avoid this pitfall!
