Re: [PHP] free allocated memory: HOW ?

Reading in the template should only happen once and take roughly as much
memory as the file is big.
If the file is 20k, memory should go up roughly by that much.
If it's going up a lot more, something is going wrong (either you're
doing something wrong or you're not just reading the template - you're
doing something else along with that).

Opera I might add is ACID2 compliant. Now please go shove your better than thou CSS up your ass :) Trust me, I am at least as versed as you in CSS and choose to use tables. Cheers, Rob.

And using tricks is just as much against the spirit of CSS as using tables for layout :) While straying even more OT than usual, I must chime in with me too I cannot count the number of times I've seen CSS purists pull out gnarly disgusting hacks, far worse than any nested table layout, to work around browser incompatibilities. It would be nice if CSS actually let designers specify what they need to specify. [Can you say 3-column layout with page footer?] And if browsers actually implemented CSS correctly... But, really, CSS is still lacking in what seems to me some basic fundamentals in terms of being able to say put this thing here, and that thing there and you end up resorting to all kinds of non-intuitive code to get the look you want... Richard, you surprise me. CSS is like any other tool -- learn to use it and it will work. As far as any layout, if you can show an example it can be done in css. As far as replacing tables, CSS doesn't -- it provides tables even more versatility. Tables have their place, but not in layout. Lastly, one man's gnarly disgusting hack, is another man's way around a short coming of IE. How many times have you had to use javascript to accomplish a task instead of using just php? One could call that a gnarly disgusting hack, but it's just a solution. As this list proves, no language is without problems.

Re: [PHP] Re: WYSIWYG vs. the 'power-user'
It depends what did you want...
For example. My current project uses own template engine. It was so simple.
you have to use {} marked nodes inside of generic html document.
You have to use text editor to update template file...
Then guess what... Our HTML designers cring for dreamweaver support. Yes sure
they are very capable html design (they can create better designs than me).
And without dreamweaver their capacity was gone...
In GUI mode you are connected to gui. Without it your knowladge was
worthless...
Depending some buttons and images make me sick.
And if you there for doing someting to win your food, gui way is so much
simpler.
And if you there for walking to your way you have to know what happen inside

Hi Tijnema! Thanks for the quick reply, I really appreciate the help. :) Tijnema ! wrote: Google tells me that it is an optional feature to run PHP as CGI, default it is running under apache. Atleast that's what i found for dreamhost. Ah, from what I am reading, it sounds like that used to be the option, and may still be a feature for older users... but (from what I understand, which is not much) PHP 5 is CGI only: DreamHost currently allows several PHP configurations. In the user Control Panel you can choose between PHP4 and PHP5 running as a CGI application (with optional FastCGI support). While it's no longer officially supported you currently still have the possibility to have PHP running as an Apache module (mod_php). Finally you have the option to compile your own custom PHP with the exact version of PHP you wish and with any module you require. http://php.dreamhosters.com/ Hmmm, I guess it sounds like I can setup things to use the Apache module, but they make it sound so evil: If one of those is a show-stopper for you, you can easily switch to running PHP as an Apache module and not CGI, but be prepared for a bunch of potential security and ease-of-use issues! http://blog.dreamhosters.com/kbase/index.cgi?area=2933 Looks like I have a ton of reading to do... Unfortunately I am more of a designer than I am a system administrator... so not sure if messing with PHP on my DH account is worth the headache. :( I have just had bad experiences in past with PHP as CGI...

Re: [PHP] scandir and ftp wrapper
I can think of only one reason why your test might be invalid: If you have already logged in to the FTP server from the browser, and the user:pass in the URL aren't the ones actually authenticating you, but the ones saved in the browser are the ones that let you in, you'd get the behaviour you have described. Seeems unlikely to be the cause, but quit the browser before your test to be sure. The ftp login details are definitely correct. I found another linux machine I have access to on which running the identical line of code on worked. That was a fc5 machine with the rpm'd version of apache and php. The problem showed up after I did the upgrade to 5.2.1 so the wrapper stuff worked before but now its just silently failing. I compile php from source so I wonder if its some compilation/configuration issue ? I did consider if it was a firewall/network issue as the other machine is on a completely different network but I can passively ftp to the ftp server using the linux command line ftp program You may also want to consider using http://php.net/ftp as a work-around, if this new-fangled FPT streams stuff just isn't working. Or even http://php.net/curl for that matter. I would like to avoid having to re-write the code using curl if possible. Cheers J.

They won't have downloads of the audio files, unless they choose to use wget -i on that file, or something similar, but it does make for a nice way to group a bunch of audio files in a way that most users know how to deal with. You could, in theory, write some nasty JavaScript that would start a download, and a META tag to take them to the next file, so that the browser would essentially visit each file to be downloaded in turn, via JS and META tags.

RE: [PHP] WWE in Stamford, CT needs a kick ass PHP Developer!
CSS is young, it will mature in time, meanwhile to each his own layout manner. I see what you are saying Rob, (yes the BUT) BUT table are orginally for formatting data in a litteral manner and css is for layout. Personally i have a heck of time getting embedded tables to do the job for me especially when mixed with javascript (then again i am not using any click and go make your site program, and am NOT saying you are, just that generating the layout with php i find easier with embedded divs doing divdiv/div/div rather then tabletrtdtabletrtd/td/tr/table/td/tr/table and not mentionning the easy of using div classe rather then table/tr/td classes...). I found css to be really helpfull in all my designs with essentially no hacks for cross-browser compatiblity (ie6 ie7 ff1 ff2) which are the 80%+ browsers on the market today. Eggh, maybe i should try opening one of my sites in OPERA one of these days so i can cry :P But then again i don't guarantee they work on any other then the stated browsers and my clients are fine with that... So far.. I see your point and understand fully.. Hopefully css will evolve into a purely compatible layout facilitation for web designers/programmers in the future, so far it has made my day and my UNTable sites are quite clean, and hopefully it will make yours someday ;) Oh and guys, since when is their ONE good way of doing things???

[PHP] IE6 PHP
Hi all,
I have a bunch of thumbnail images that link to larger versions of the images
and want to line them up in rows across the screen , using CSS I put them into
a separate DIV. To get them to line up horizontally across the window I use CSS
to FLOAT each DIV to the left, CSS looks like this:
div.float {
float: left;
}
and the HTML :
div class=floatimg srcimage.jpg.../br //div
Firefox and Netscape show the thumbnails in rows like this:
[] [] [] []
[] [] [] []
[] [] [] []
but in IE6 there is a problem , the first row is O.K. but the second ant the
third rows are not O.K. it looks like this:
[] [] [] []

Dear Rob: It's not a question of CSS superiority -- but rather a matter of best practice. You want to use a screw driver to drive a nail, then fine -- but some of us do know better. You pointed out that my http://ancientstones.com was not appearing as it should and you were right. I had made some minor changes and did not check Opera. However, the fix was a single line of code and it took me less than a minute to find it -- try that with tables. I'm not saying any of this because of any better than thou attitude, but rather because it's true. If you don't want to consider what I have to say, then fine, no skin off my nose. But I do know this, I listen to what you have to say about php because you know what you're talking about. But in this case, my friend, we differ greatly. You want to stick with tables then fine, but if you are as well versed as I am in CSS, then you know that using tables for layout is more costly in overall development, maintenance, sales, and accessibility. To me and my clients, those things matter. Concepts like separating content from presentation, graceful degradation and progressive enhancement are not just phrases one imagined so they could sit on a glass pedestal and look down on everyone else. They are practices that work and are far more reaching than WYSIWYG table layouts.

It depends what did you want...
For example. My current project uses own template engine. It was so simple.
you have to use {} marked nodes inside of generic html document.
You have to use text editor to update template file...
Then guess what... Our HTML designers cring for dreamweaver support. Yes
sure
they are very capable html design (they can create better designs than me).
And without dreamweaver their capacity was gone...
In GUI mode you are connected to gui. Without it your knowladge was
worthless...
Depending some buttons and images make me sick.
And if you there for doing someting to win your food, gui way is so much
simpler.
And if you there for walking to your way you have to know what happen

Hey Sancar:
I agree with your view. It seems to work for you. There are ones reading
the php lists that pray for the knowledge to be a great php coder and or
web designer like the ones they see out there on the web.
If you know HTML 4.01 inside and out(which is not so time consuming as
this is not a programming languge, its a markup language) the GUI is a
wonderful tool that quickly composes a page.
So use the GUI's all you want knowing what they really are.
Do whatever it takes to make your project come together.
Thank you Sancar for your experience.
Blessings,
Chetan

please comment
Have you tried adding borders to that div ie: border: 1px solid black;
To actually see what the div's are doing, that is the basic debugging
method i uses on all my divs when i can't get something to fit (beware of
the border adding 1px on all sides if you are using fixed size div's).
Second i found that by floating all sub-elements of a float element you
will end up tearing less hair out then you would by mixing non float
elements with float elements, try giving that img a float:left style and see
what happens...
Also what is that br doing there? Could you give more code onhow you are
generating this thumbnail table?

Tim

[PHP] PDO SQLite driving me mad!
Hi all,
I really don't know what is going on here. Can anyone shed some light on
this please?
I'm trying to store an image in a SQLite database using PDO. The code
given on http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdo.php under Example 1669 is
basically wrong - you can't beginTransaction() on a statement for
example! So I had to rewrite it a little, but no matter what, it just
doesn't work.
The problem appears to be the PDO LOB type. It will only ever send the
first 21 bytes of the image to the database no matter what I try. Here's
some code:
$stmt = $db-prepare('INSERT INTO Test (name, data) VALUES (?,?)');
$stmt-bindParam(1, $name, PDO::PARAM_STR, 60);
$stmt-bindParam(2, $pic_data, PDO::PARAM_LOB);
$stmt-execute();
The database is alive and well, and can be written to just fine, as is
proven by the fact that I do get SOME data in there, just not all of it!
I have tried a variety of files to no end.
According to the PHP docs PDO LOB should work on streams as well, so I
tried adding:
$fp = fopen($filename, 'rb');
To my script, and then changing the LOB line to:
$stmt-bindParam(2, $fp, PDO::PARAM_LOB);
Thinking it would work out what to do with the newly found stream. But
no, yet again all I get are the first 21 bytes.
Using SQLite Maestro I can view the inserted data, and it's always too
short. If I use the SQLite Maestro interface to insert an image, it
works fine. PDO SQLite seems to always fail when trying to extract a LOB
for display though, but that's another issue.
PHP 5.2.1 - ideas, anyone?!
Cheers,
Rich

[PHP] Protecting individual files/dirs from access
Hey all, I hope this isn't too off-topic for this list, but I have a need to protect dynamically created directories in an Apache environment and not sure the best way to go about it. It's yer basic LAMP environment, and what will happen is that the client will be uploading a musician's sound files to his/her own directory and then allowing them to be downloaded by people who pay for them. So the directory for the artist, which will be one level below the docroot, like public_html/greatsinger/, will contain the artist's music, and must be accessible by those who have paid for the music, but should be protected from any typed URL attempt to access the music files directly. I was wondering if it were possible to drop a .htaccess file into each artist's directory that would password protect it and then code the URLs in the PHP script that allows access to the fines to access the files with a user name and password, but also hid this URL from display in the browser? The files need to be under the document root to allow a link to download them, right? Any suggestions for common ways to solve this would be appreciated. -- Skip Evans Big Sky Penguin, LLC 61 W Broadway Butte, Montana 59701 406-782-2240 http://bigskypenguin.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Check out PHPenguin, a lightweight and versatile PHP/MySQL development framework. http://phpenguin.bigskypenguin.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

According to the Fingerlicking Manual (OK, now that was arguably

-- the last command line string as the function return value and a
status byte returned in the second parameter. The example provided is:
// Outputs all the result of shellcommand ls, and returns

[PHP] sendmail loop
I have a sendmail script that loops through an array of email addresses. the problem is, the list can sometimes be fairly long, and the page does not finish loading until the loop has completed. Currently, I have the majority of the page loading, including text that says messages sending, please wait., with a completed message after the loop. Though that gives an appearance of working (and lets the patient user know what is going on), if the user leaves the page, or the page times out before the loop has finished, not all the emails will be sent. Is there a way to trigger a script to run on the server (in the background)? I had the thought to save the notice to the DB, and then have a cron check every few minutes to send it, but that could be too much load on the servers. Any other alternatives? Thanks! ~J Ps. No, this is not a spam application - it is a notice/announcement form for directors/administrators of an organization

You have to work WAY too hard to make sure you have a gate-keeper to force people to pay. Put the files outside the webtree, and have a PHP script that controls access and is your gate-keeper. It's kind of like the difference between holding a music festival in a park with no fence, and holding a music festival in a convention center. In the first case (your mp3 in the web-tree == open park) you end up having to build a fence, and there will always be somebody trying to jump the fence, because it's just a temporary fence and obviously not very secure. In the second case (the mp3 outside the web-tree) there's a big brick wall and a tiny number of doors that need guarding, and it's much easier to secure. I was wondering if it were possible to drop a .htaccess file into each artist's directory that would password protect it and then code the URLs in the PHP script that allows access to the fines to access the files with a user name and password, but also hid this URL from display in the browser? You could do all that, but... The files need to be under the document root to allow a link to download them, right? No. Have the link go to a PHP script, which authenticates the user (in your case, makes *sure* they paid) and then that script does http://php.net/readfile The MP3 itself should live outside the web-tree in a private directory. You'd still want to have the sub-directories under private organized by artist and all that. Your upload script would simply move files into this directory tree instead of the web tree -- which is better anyway, as that means you needn't have php-writable directories inside your web-tree, which is also a Risk. You *DO* have to have your download URL cleverly-crafted to make the browser do the right thing, and you have to send the right headers for the MP3 right before the readfile, but that's actually quite easy with $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] and header() function. -- Some people have a gift link here.

You can't really do `php -v` on the command line, unless you know which php you are using.

[PHP] how to get var name and value from function?
hi,
this one I can't figure out:
I have to assign value of an array to variable named after key of the
array several times in my project to , e.g. after I submit a form with
personal info I have
$_POST['name'] = 'john doe';
$_POST['address'] = '123 main st.';
$_POST['city'] = 'urbandale';
$_POST['zip'] = '12345';
$_POST['phone'] = '123-456-7980';
etc.
Then I assign value to the var name:
foreach ($_POST as $key = $value)
{
${$key} = $value;
}
and then validate submitted.
Though, to avoid writing all over again the same lines (even it's only 3
lines) I was thinking to create a function something like:
function value2var($array, $print=0)
{
foreach ($_POST as $key = $value)
{
${$key} = $value;
echo ($print ==1) ? $key.': '.$value.'br'; // to test
results and seeing array variables and values
}
}
value2var($_POST, 1);
but, I don't know how to get info from function back to script?!?!?
:-(
any help appreciated.

[PHP] Images again
Before mr lynch starts beating up those already dead and probably long since burried horses... Images in a database! See I was just wondering, and that at times leads to late nights I used to read the images from two different files; one watermarked the image and one let it throught without any hazzle. Of course this kind of script was easy enought to get around the watermarking, witch I fixed with the http referer witch as follows IE don't send. I don't particulary like ppl who use IE (ups did I upset someone?) ;D. However I started compressing my scripts and putting them inside one file. And the status is so far: * Query for the image object. * Query for copyright check in case of watermarking. If no watermarking skip to echo * Read the object. * put object in a file outside webroot like /tmp. * read both the watermark and object * merge * echo Is it possible to skip one query and still be able to read ownership from a table and at the same time stream the object, witch lead me to the next question, I can't seem to be able to make imageCreateFromJPEG handle the direct stream, nor that I fetch it in an array, is any of this possible? As of now I need two files to make this happen. Either I use one file to check for rights and download throught a second file (close to the old solution) or I try this new thing and end up with one php file witch needs the object stream to be saved before it can be managed proberly. -- --- Børge http://www.arivene.net --- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Opera I might add is ACID2 compliant. Now please go shove your better than thou CSS up your ass :) Trust me, I am at least as versed as you in CSS and choose to use tables. Cheers, Rob. Dear Rob: It's not a question of CSS superiority -- but rather a matter of best practice. You want to use a screw driver to drive a nail, then fine -- but some of us do know better. I noticed your site isn't a pixel perfect layout. Probably why you haven't had to tear at your face very hard with CSS :) That whole box-model issue becomes a great deal more elastic when you have some fudge room. You pointed out that my http://ancientstones.com was not appearing as it should and you were right. I had made some minor changes and did not check Opera. However, the fix was a single line of code and it took me less than a minute to find it -- try that with tables. I use my templating engine, I can wrap as many tags as I please into a compound custom tag with attributes that expand into the dirty details. This also provides a great deal of flexibility later when CSS support improves, to replace the dirty tables ;) I do prefer CSS, but having done pixel perfect layouts, I know where things break down. I'm not saying any of this because of any better than thou attitude, but rather because it's true. If you don't want to consider what I have to say, then fine, no skin off my nose. Eww... NOSE SKIN!!! :) But I do know this, I listen to what you have to say about php because you know what you're talking about. But in this case, my friend, we differ greatly. You want to stick with tables then fine, You've got me wrong, I don't want to stick with tables, I want to use the full power of CSS, but unfortunately Microsoft has seen fit to screw everything up as much as possible. but if you are as well versed as I am in CSS, then you know that using tables for layout is more costly in overall development, maintenance, sales, and accessibility. To me and my clients, those things matter. I agree with accessibility to some degree, but for the rest I think you're a bit too far out on a limb. Concepts like separating content from presentation, graceful degradation and progressive enhancement are not just phrases one imagined so they could sit on a glass pedestal and look down on everyone else. They are practices that work and are far more reaching than WYSIWYG table layouts. Agreed, I practice all of the above, but I feel no guilt in using a table for a layout when it simplifies the issue. Between box model issues, float bugs, etc etc, CSS just can't do what needs to be done yet. tedd PS: Meant, or not, no offense taken -- I do enjoy your colorful manner. :-) No offense is ever meant, although I'll give you, I was quite drunk last night (I get 2 outings a year ;) and I used a little more colour than usual *heheh*.
