A key may be either an integer or a string. If a key is the standard
representation of an integer, it will be interpreted as such (i.e. 8 will
be interpreted as 8, while 08 will be interpreted as 08).
I was always under the impression that using:
$_SERVER[HTTP_USER_AGENT] or $foo[myindex]
Was bad compared to the proper way of:
$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] or $foo['myindex']
True, but notice he's using it inside a heredoc string and the rules
are slightly different for string parsing.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.parsing
Whereas outside a string, $foo[myindex] will give you a notice and
$foo['myindex'] is OK; Inside a string, $foo[myindex] will give you no
notice and $foo['myindex'] will give you a parse error.
The manual suggests that $foo[myindex] is treated the same inside a
string as outside - if 'myindex' is defined as a constant then that is
what's used as the index. This doesn't seem to be born out by reality.
?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$test = array(
'FOO' = 'Bareword',
'BAR' = 'Constant'

[PHP] resize image and store it to DB
Hi,
I allow web application users to insert their own picture into database.
but i defined a max size limit 130 px width by 160px height.
so for that i determine the max ratio in case of picture does not have this
size.
after that i resize it and would like to store it to DB, however i have some
problem once it is resized.
here is my code :
data = file_get_contents($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name']);
$img = imagecreatefromstring($data);
$width = imagesx($img);
$height = imagesy($img);
$maxwidth = 130; //130px
$maxheight = 160; //160px
$ratio =0.00;
if($width $maxwidth || $height$maxheight)// image is somehow
bigger than 160px * 130px
{
if($width $maxwidth)
{
$ratio = $maxwidth/$width;
}
if($height$maxheight)
{
// always take the smallest ratio
$ratio = ($maxheight/$height) $ratio ? $ratio : ($maxheight/$height);
}
}
else // both $width and $height are smaller than max, so we need to zoom
{
$i=0.00;
$i=($maxwidth/$width);
$i = ($maxheight/$height) $i ? $i : ($maxheight/$height);
$ratio = $i;
}
$newwidth = $width*$ratio;
$newheight = $height*$ratio;
$thumb = imagecreatetruecolor($newwidth, $newheight);
imagecopyresized($thumb, $img, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newwidth, $newheight, $width,
$height);
$escaped = pg_escape_bytea($thumb); // does not work and it's normal
$thumb is an image, so ho can i make it useful for pg_escape_bytea function
?
i do not want to create a tmp file on server and after load it.
I would like to do it stored image directly into DB on-fly.
thanks alot,

I don't know if there's a better way, but you could try output
buffering, so that you start it, output the image with imagejpeg,
imagepng, imagegif, etc. and then get the contents of the buffer.

[PHP] magic.mime
Hi,
I know that magic.mime is depreciated but i would like to test a simple
thing. However, i have some issues with it it does not work :-(
basically, my php.ini file points as following :
mime_magic.magicfile = x:\PHP511\extras\magic.mime
I also enabled the dll via :
extension=php_mime_magic.dll
when i check the settings via phpinfo() i have everything ok (i mean the
mime_magic module is loaded).
However, if i write a simple PHP test page as following :
error_reporting(E_ALL );
echo brMime (PNG) : .mime_content_type('image.png');
echo brMime (JPG) : .mime_content_type('kader.jpg');
echo brMime (PHP) : .mime_content_type('test_mime.php');
echo br;
i get nothing from function mime_content_type().
Where could be the problem ?
thanks a lot,

Re: [PHP] newbie needs help
I do apologize for the non-list reply, I will make sure and keep that in
there on the next emails. I checked this morning and there was only one
image, so the second mymonth code did not execute, but I replaced the
code with what Richard gave me and it works also. And about the {}
brackets, I am having to teach myself PHP code while trying to update
and maintain a preprogrammed website so most of the code I see and I am
using is chopped up code from the old programmer (which he did not keep
a very tidy code). I figure out what a line of code does and then try to
manipulate the existing code into what I need, so my syntax comes from
the old programmer and what he had.
On another note I want to say THANK YOU again, your response to my
question blew my mind on how quickly you guys responded, I have posted
questions and sent emails on some other programming sites and either
takes a few days to hear back or I never get the answer I need. I will
only be asking questions about PHP here from now on. You have a loyal
user forever.

I also tried the standard magic.mime file delivered with PHP 5.1.2 but nothing. i tried On/Off for debug = nothing. i tried another magic.mine file from GnuWin32 or from another version of PHP = nothing. I'm lost :-( My web host provider will not accept to use the PCEL dll file. I've seen that on his server magic_mime works perfectly. So as i would like to develop it on my computer, i need to have it also working there. Any suggestion ? thanks a lot, -- Alain Windows XP SP2 PostgreSQL 8.1.4 Apache 2.0.58 PHP 5

Exactly. I never saw the point in complicating my life with heredocs
when both single- and double-quoted strings can contain multiple lines
anyway.
One thing that does bother me a little with multi-line strings of either
variety is that if I want to avoid inserting extra spaces in the string
at the beginning of each line after the first, I have to left-align the
whole thing and cannot indent it with the rest of my code:
if($something){
if($something_else){
$myID = intval($_GET['rowID']);
$sql_pretty =
SELECT
field1,
field2
FROM
mytable
WHERE
rowID = $myID;
$sql_ugly =
SELECT
field1,
field2
FROM
mytable
WHERE
rowID = $myID;
}
}
Are there perhaps editors that would DISPLAY multi-line quoted strings
indented to the correct level without inserting extra spaces? Some
editors wrap lines to the correct level, which is also much more
readable, so what I'm thinking of is a bit similar to that.
Then you'd have an editor that presents something other than what is
actually there. Go see Microsoft, I'm sure they create rubbish like
that.
Cheers,
Rob.
something other than what is actually there
Not at all, Rob! Have you seen how many editors dynamically wrap lines
(Quanta on KDE for instance)? Instead of placing the wrapped line right
smach along the left edge, it indents the following lines under the
first line. It is visually clear that there is no extra white space
because the extra indent has a different background color.
Like this (I used +'s to indicate a different background color, telling
you this isn't whitespace in your code):
if($something){
$variable = This text message goes on and on and ever on and and
+++would run right off the edge of my screen but thankfully my editor
+++is smart enough to wrap the lines in a way that also does not
+++ruin the indentation.\n;
}
Now, I would wish for my editor to also indent multi-line strings in the
same fashion. Essentially, the lines of $sql_ugly in my example above
should be displayed in alignment with the indentation:
if($something){
if($something_else){
$myID = intval($_GET['rowID']);
$sql =
++SELECT
++ field1,
++ field2
++FROM
++ mytable
++WHERE
++ rowID = $myID;
}
}
I doubt Microsoft develops an editor that I could use on my Linux system
for this...
Cheers,
Mattias

/usr/local/bin/php so I'm not sure if the CLI binary maybe got moved when
we switched to CGI mode or what, anyway I still get the Zend Optimizer
Warning message when I run the script from the command line but for some
reason it doesn't write to error_log when the script is called from the

The error_log file is written by httpd (Apache). It actually just

[PHP] Deviation? Distribution? OT?
My boss and the web designer have decided to do something that requires statistical formulae well beyond my statistically-challenged capabilities, so I'm turning to y'all... Basically, the current query looks something like this: select * from (select whatever, count(*) as popular from the_table group by whatever order by popular desc limit 100 ) as pop order by rand() So basically it's the Top 100 popular, ordered at random They then want to have the MOST popular stuff with a CSS class=t5 and the least popular with class=t1 The t5 are BIG AND BOLD and the t1 are tiny and plain basically, with t2, t3, and t4 sort of in between in bigness and boldness. The CSS guy has that bit worked out, in terms of style. I just have to label the dang things t1 to t5, no more, no less. Now I have NO IDEA what the range is going to be for the popuplar score as time goes on and the site gets super-popular... So I guess I want some kind of standard deviation thingie among those Top 100? I know for sure I don't want just 20 of each t1 through t5. There are way more t1 than there are t5. So maybe it's more logarithmic than standard deviation? Or is there some kind of weighted deviation? Or maybe it's some other statistical thingie like standard deviation only not? All I now for sure is, my current hack of taking log($popular, 3) in PHP is only going to sort of work with our sample data and make them THINK that it's working, when it's actually quite borked as soon as the number of data points increases. (I.e., next week or so) Little help here? I suspect it's going to turn out to be some magical MySQL statistics function, but not knowing what standard deviation actually *means* any more, I'm at a loss to guess which one... I guess I *could* take the results in order without the wrapping rand() query, do min/max and log games in PHP on the highest/lowest, and then do a shuffle... But there's got to be a better way. -- Some people have a gift link here. Know what I want? I want you to buy a CD from some indie artist. http://cdbaby.com/browse/from/lynch Yeah, I get a buck.

It doesn't give an error. The only thing it does is continue on through
the IF statement, which goes nowhere. I have added an ELSE to the

Add full error reporting, then make sure you can see the errors, then
test to see if you have the mysqli extension:
error_reporting( E_ALL );
ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 );
ini_set( 'log_errors', 1 );
if( !in_array( 'mysqli', get_loaded_extensions() ) )
{
die( 'no mysqli found' );
}
Also, why do you need to escape the dashes in the date() calls?
php -r 'echo date(Y-m-d);'
