Re: [PHP] Re: php framework, large site
Hi, as a creator of the one of those half baked's I want to say someting about this issue. People wants own Php framework etc. Because 1-) Documentation. For my point of view most of unix documentation style was too complex. After more than 10 years of linux experience I still hate man pages. And some how (I believe this because of want look like professional/ubergeek/hyper academic) most language/framework/cms/thisthat in Open Source universe uses complex documentation model. Php was non programmers programming language especially for web. Uber Programmers still rejecting php (because of function naming, not good enough oo support, etc etc etc). Also there was tons of more polished programming (and or scripting) language for web (perl, python, ruby) none of them reach popularty of php. After tons of security problems, misbehaved functions, php still growing as fast as possible. It was documentation damn it. No other language has php style documentation. So ? Most of php framework's uses complex documentation model and because of this lost of people can't understand (and improve) those frameworks and implement own. 2-) Complexing... Over time frameworks become more complex... If you are there from start there was no problem for you and if came here after 4 years you will see lots of classes and functions to understand to the what the hell goes around there. Last month our company give try for typo3. OUCH!! I'm still tyring to understand what goin there. Function names was very funny. I still try to understand their system. According the their web pages in 5.0 they will clean up the system. .Backward compatibility. Most of php programmers are non programmers and php can grow up with his programmer and world of WWW too fast for anything. Programming c was not so much change last 5 years and programmin php in last 5 years was changed too much. AND if you are my kind (growing with php) your programing style was dramaticly changed. And if you had so popular framework you have to give backward support. And this was increase complexity of some frameworks. .overused OO I see some frame works uses $this-$that-$yada-$bada() Ouch man if we can tolerate this kind of compexity we can even program in ASM... 3-) This is world of HTML, JS and HTTP. there was lot of way to implement your idea. 4-) Writing someting in php very easy 5-) Having own framework was coool. ;) Regards sancar -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi all,
Ok it's 2am, my brain has gone to mush and I am having trouble
figuring out an easy way to do this, can anyone shed some light?
Take a peek at the following code:

print_r($_POST);
$userparam = test['sam'][];
// How to check if $userparam exists in the $_POST array

input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=green2green2br
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=blue2blue2br
input type=submit
/form
// END
From the code above I'm trying to figure out how to tell if the
$userparam exists in the $_POST array. PHP automatically expands the
form element name into multi-dim arrays within $_POST, so a simple
'isset' as shown in the code above won't play because it's got a
totally useless array key passed to it.
I need a way to turn the string:
test['sam'][]
into something I can look into $_POST for.
Any ideas? The coffee boost is wearing off, but I want to get this
licked tonight :-\
Do you have control over what $userparam looks like? I'm not entirely
sure what you're after due to the [] on the end of it, but I'm going to
assume you want to know if any of the 'sam' checkboxes were ticked.
Maybe the following is a possibility...
$userparam = test.sam;
// How to check if $userparam exists in the $_POST array
// and get all the values from it?
$idx = '[\''.implode('\'][\']', explode('.', $userparam)).'\']';
eval('$isset = isset($_POST'.$idx.');');
// Obviously this won't work, but you get the idea:
if ($isset)
{
echo 'yeah';
eval('$values = $_POST'.$idx.';');
}
else
{
echo 'nah';
}
Untested, and remember that eval is pure evil.
If you can't control $userparam and it has to look like you have it then
you're parsing of it is a little more involved, but still fairly simple.
What are you actually trying to do? Where will $userparam actually come
from? There is almost certainly a better way to do this, but without
knowing all the details I'd be peeing in the wind.

Thank you for your code so far. Here is a more detailed explanation of
what I'm trying to do:
The designers here can create forms with whatever form elements they
like on them. They can name the form elements with any valid name. As
you know sometimes it is useful to give the form elements names which
will convert them into arrays in PHP, i.e.:
input type=checkbox name=test[color][] value=red2red2br
input type=checkbox name=test[color][] value=green2green2br
input type=checkbox name=test[color][] value=blue2blue2br
So $_POST['test']['color'] would contain an array of all the checked
values.
So far so good. The problem comes in that I don't know what the form
elements will be named, but I still need to check to see if they exist
within the $_POST array.
So knowing that $input_name = 'test[color][]' I then need to see if
$_POST['test']['color'] exists and get the value if it does.
To make matters worse it's perfectly legal to have a form element
named like:
input type=checkbox name=test['bob']['jazz'][] value=redred
input type=checkbox name=test['bob']['jazz'][] value=greengreen
input type=checkbox name=test['bob']['jazz'][] value=blueblue
Which when bought back into PHP will come out as:
array(1) {
[test]=
array(2) {
['bob']=
array(1) {
['jazz']=
array(3) {
[0]=
string(3) red
[1]=
string(5) green
[2]=
string(4) blue
}
}
Does that make it any clearer?
I have been playing with the RecursiveIteratorIterator this morning in
an attempt to solve it, but the results from that are less than
useless :(
I'm happy to try and explore the RAW post value instead if that would
be easier. I just figured there must be an easier way?
Here is the complete page you can test with:
START
pre
?php
var_dump($_POST);
$iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new
RecursiveArrayIterator($_POST));
while($iterator-valid())
{
echo $iterator-key() . ' -- ' . $iterator-current();
echo \n;
$iterator-next();
}
$userparam = test['bob'][jazz][];
// How to determine if $userparam exists in $_POST
?
/pre
form method=post
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][jazz][] value=redredbr
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][jazz][] value=greengreenbr
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][jazz][] value=bluebluebr
input type=checkbox name=test[sam][] value=red2red2br
input type=checkbox name=test[sam][] value=green2green2br
input type=checkbox name=test[sam][] value=blue2blue2br
input type=submit
/form
END
Remember the whole crux of this problem is that I have no control over
what the form name will be. It will be *valid*, but that is all. They
could nest the resulting array as deep in $_POST as they like.

Rich

If you have no control over what the fields in the form will be, what
are you doing with the data? Surely if you're writing logic that
requires you to know what the fields are called, you need to have
control over it.
On the other hand, if you're just squidging the data somewhere can't you
just iterate over the contents of $_POST?
I understand now that you're not in control of the form. What are you
doing with the data that's submitted?

Here, this should help expand it further:
$icecream = $form-addSelectList('list', icecream[flavor][], 1, true, 'xml',
'icecream.xml', '//flavour');
The above code will add a select list into the current form (the
contents of which come from the icecream.xml file, using the xpath
query at the end, but this isn't relevant to the problem)
The 2nd parameter is the form name. In this instance the flavors from
the multi-select list will come into $_POST in: icecream[flavor]
When the form is submitted I take all of these form elements, and if
they exist in the filtered $_POST array, I re-populate them on error.
If the input name is just 'icecream' then you can do a simple:
if (isset($_POST[$input_name]))
.. and get the submitted value back.
If the input name is 'icecream[flavor][]' the above will no longer
work.
The problem is finding a way to expand the input name (which is a
string) into a format that $_POST can be searched for. Or do the
reverse, iterate through $_POST to find a match for the input name and
get that value.

$icecream = $form-addSelectList('list', icecream[flavor][], 1, true, 'xml',
'icecream.xml', '//flavour');
The above code will add a select list into the current form (the
contents of which come from the icecream.xml file, using the xpath
query at the end, but this isn't relevant to the problem)
The 2nd parameter is the form name. In this instance the flavors from
the multi-select list will come into $_POST in: icecream[flavor]
When the form is submitted I take all of these form elements, and if
they exist in the filtered $_POST array, I re-populate them on error.
If the input name is just 'icecream' then you can do a simple:
if (isset($_POST[$input_name]))
.. and get the submitted value back.
If the input name is 'icecream[flavor][]' the above will no longer
work.
The problem is finding a way to expand the input name (which is a
string) into a format that $_POST can be searched for. Or do the
reverse, iterate through $_POST to find a match for the input name and
get that value.
Try this overly commented snippet on for size...

Hello,
There's another way out there using mysql

but off course not a recommended way. In fact you can use it update query
(update tbl_name set expiry_date = date_add('$expiry_date', INTERVAL 7 DAY)

Hi all,
Ok it's 2am, my brain has gone to mush and I am having trouble
figuring out an easy way to do this, can anyone shed some light?
Take a peek at the following code:
// START
pre
?php
print_r($_POST);
$userparam = test['sam'][];
// How to check if $userparam exists in the $_POST array
// and get all the values from it?
// Obviously this won't work, but you get the idea:
if (isset($_POST[$userparam]))
{
echo 'yeah';
$values = $_POST[$userparam];
}
else
{
echo 'nah';
}
?
/pre
form method=post
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][] value=redredbr
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][] value=greengreenbr
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][] value=bluebluebr
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=red2red2br
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=green2green2br
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=blue2blue2br
input type=submit
/form
// END
From the code above I'm trying to figure out how to tell if the
$userparam exists in the $_POST array. PHP automatically expands the
form element name into multi-dim arrays within $_POST, so a simple
'isset' as shown in the code above won't play because it's got a
totally useless array key passed to it.
I need a way to turn the string:
test['sam'][]
into something I can look into $_POST for.
Any ideas? The coffee boost is wearing off, but I want to get this
licked tonight :-\
Cheers,
Rich

I just need a clarification about the new $double_encode param for

Is it supposed to do as I expect it to do in the code below or am I
misuderstanding its use?
// Output: lt;
echo htmlentities('', ENT_QUOTES, false);
// Expected Output: lt;
// Actual Output: amp;lt;
echo htmlentities(htmlentities('', ENT_QUOTES, false), ENT_QUOTES,

Your false value for your htmlentities() call should be the 4th
parameter, not the 3rd.

Hi all,
Ok it's 2am, my brain has gone to mush and I am having trouble
figuring out an easy way to do this, can anyone shed some light?
Take a peek at the following code:
// START
pre
?php
print_r($_POST);
$userparam = test['sam'][];
// How to check if $userparam exists in the $_POST array
// and get all the values from it?
// Obviously this won't work, but you get the idea:
if (isset($_POST[$userparam]))
{
echo 'yeah';
$values = $_POST[$userparam];
}
else
{
echo 'nah';
}
?
/pre
form method=post
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][] value=redredbr
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][] value=greengreenbr
input type=checkbox name=test['bob'][] value=bluebluebr
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=red2red2br
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=green2green2br
input type=checkbox name=test['sam'][] value=blue2blue2br
DON'T USE SINGLE QUOTES IN YOUR NAME= ATTRIBUTE
input type=checkbox name=test[bob][red] value=redredbr
input type=checkbox name=test[bob][green] value=greengreenbr
input type=checkbox name=test[bob][blue] value=bluebluebr
input type=checkbox name=test[sam][red] value=redredbr
input type=checkbox name=test[sam][green] value=greengreenbr
input type=checkbox name=test[sam][blue] value=bluebluebr
Now print_r() should show this.
Array
(
[test] = Array
(
['bob'] = Array -- notice the single quotes?? they are in your
actual value
(
[red] = red
[green] = green
[blue] = blue
)
[sam] = Array
(
[red] = red
[green] = green
[blue] = blue
)
)
)
input type=submit
/form
// END
From the code above I'm trying to figure out how to tell if the
$userparam exists in the $_POST array. PHP automatically expands the
form element name into multi-dim arrays within $_POST, so a simple
'isset' as shown in the code above won't play because it's got a
totally useless array key passed to it.
I need a way to turn the string:
test['sam'][]
into something I can look into $_POST for.
Any ideas? The coffee boost is wearing off, but I want to get this
licked tonight :-\

Hate to piss on your bonfire but a single quote is a perfectly valid

Cheers,

in this case, it isn't a valid char.
Look at his output, you will see that the single quotes are being
included in the actual value of the submitted array.
So, in this case, they will mess with his comparison.
you'll be comparing
'bob'
not
bob
Look at the output a little closer...
I'm not sure who's output you are referring to, but while you're
making sense as a comment to a competely different question, it's not
relevant to this question.

What do you mean?
I thought I was pretty clear.
This is the op's output
Array
(
[test] = Array
(
['bob'] = Array
(
[0] = red
[1] = green
[2] = blue
)
)
)
Do you see the single quotes in the array hey at the second level??
I do indeed.
They should not be there.
Why not? They're in the form so they're in the post data. Seems
reasonable to me.
it will mess with things.
Only if you let it. Stand up to the quotes!! Fight for your rights!!
but, for the op here is what I think you might be looking for.
pre
?php
$user = sam;
if ( isset($_POST['test'][$user]) count($_POST['test'][$user])
0 ) {
echo yeah\n;
echo join(':', $_POST['test'][$user]);
}
else
{
echo 'nah';
}

input type=checkbox name=test[sam][green] value=greengreenbr

That's so far off the mark it's just not funny. As Richard has
suggested, read the full thread otherwise you're never going to
understand what the actual problem was.

print_r($_POST);

totally useless array key passed to it.
I need a way to turn the string:

into something I can look into $_POST for.
Any ideas? The coffee boost is wearing off, but I want to get this

Ross [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: how do apache filepaths match the directories? The answer you don't want is however they were configured. :) You have seen some conventions. This is my document root acording to $_SERVER /usr/local/apache/htdocs/ The /usr/local/apache/ path is pretty common. I am seeing htdocs more frequently, but have also seen html and docroot. There is an entry in the apache ini file, httpd.conf, when the document root is specified, and you can pick any directory you like, subject to permissions, of course. but I also sometimes see this /home/mysitename/public_html/ When you have shared hosting, each user (domain) needs their own document root. These are created in the user directory area, which by convention is called /home. On my home system home is mounted to root, and is on its own drive. But this can vary for computer to computer. /usr/local/apache/htdocs/home/mysitename/public_html/ Here home is mounted in a rather uncommon place, but it should work. And whether public_html is used or htdocs, seems to be a choice made by the people who created the different control panels for mantaining apache servers that are set up to do virtual hosting. On of apaches .conf files has all the virtual document roots, and apache really doesn't care what the paths and directories are. (Subject again to permissioons!) Stephen

that would be awesome.
I am trying to get the result of a post
There are a lot of people that are probably willing to help, but what
is your exact problem?
echo httpSocketConnection(www.google.com, POST, /search, q=test,
80);
This should post to google.com with a query of test. Then give me the
response. The function I'm using is below.
Google doesn't wants a POST request, make it a GET request and it should
work.
Here's the function's code:
snip
You copied this straight from the web? If so, then there are probably
no bugs in it.

[PHP] If statement duplicating mysql records?
Okay, so I have a question... Probably pretty easy, but why would my
if statement show more records then what are in the database?
if($row[5] =='Level4'){ // White Highlight
echo TRTD bgcolor=.$Level4.$row[0] /td;
echo td bgcolor=.$Level4.$row[1] /td;
echo td bgcolor=.$Level4.A href ='$row[2]'Instructions/A/
td;
echo TD bgcolor=.$Level4.A href='update.php?taskid=$row
[0]'Click here!/A;
}// End of Level 4
else
{// Green Highlight
echo TRTD bgcolor=.$unclassified.$row[0] /td;
echo td bgcolor=.$unclassified.$row[1] /td;
echo td bgcolor=.$unclassified.A href ='$row
[2]'Instructions/A/td;
echo TD bgcolor=.$unclassified.A href='update.php?taskid=$row
[0]'Click here!/A;
}// End of Unclassified
If I have a record that matches Level4 it will display both with the
$Level4 color and the $unclassified color. Ideally it would only show
up under the $Level4 category if it's Level4... If that makes sense.
Or is there a better way to do it?
Thanks! :)
And one of these days, I WILL be able to help answer questions on
this list too! :)

[PHP] Chat system
Hi, I am looking for a simple php chat system (no registration, no private channels). Unfortunately the ones I've found (phpopenchat, phpfreechat) are too complicate, requiring the user to register or fail to work properly in IE6 or IE7. Any tips? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

In that case you don't have a problem. If the session ID is being passed
in a cookie then it will survive redirects.

Why not do it this way instead.

I don't think IF is the culprit. I'm guessing you have a bad join in
your sql query so you are getting back more records than you expect.
Have you run the query directly in to see what your results are?

And, don't ask me for references, I'm not doing your homework. I made the claim, now you prove me wrong, if you can. Perhaps you'll learn something in the process. Just for grins, why don't you list ten basic patients that spawned new technologies, which were produced by large corporations. I think you're going to have a hard time wading through all the small inventors, who spawned giant industries, to find something that a large corporation did that was worthwhile. And, don't look to government for anything worthwhile either (chuckle). Their grant process is a joke for providing funds to small developers -- you should try it sometime. Large organizations (corporate or government) are guided by collective minds without imagination. Good ideas are diluted to the least common denominator of understanding. Like I said before, the brightest ideas have to pass through the dimmest minds to be implemented. If you drown imagination in a quagmire of countless levels of CYA management, then you'll never produce anything worthwhile. The lone individual is the true source of inspiration and imagination and his freedom to act upon his idea is directly proportional to the likelihood of it's success. That fact is very obvious to those of us who have experienced it -- sad that you haven't. And, one *never* could conduct high energy particle physics experiments in my own basement and launch interplanetary space probes from my own backyard. Lighten up, it's satire.
