Larry, Thank you for responding. ... you want to be using mysql_fetch_assoc() instead... Thank you, that helps me achieve what I need. Or, better yet, use mysqli_ ... if you're running PHP 5 (which you are, right? Yes, I am running PHP 5.

[PHP] Server Process
Just a follow up to my post about running an application server side and the introduction of sockets. My application is really just to modify a series of images on the server and combine them into a collage of images as a single file name. So I just say go and wait for it to build the final file, then it is done. So in this case are sockets an advantage? I really just want to start the application and let it go, without transferring data back and forth between PHP and the app. Any more help would be great. Cheers, Nathan
[PHP] apache content negotiation and $_GET
All, I've got a weird issue concerning $_GET and apaches content negotiation. situation one: files in htdocs/: phpinfo.phtml.en (all it does is call phpinfo()). phpinfo.html - apache type-map if I load URL = https://server/phpinfo?klop=99, I see no _GET variables listed. (with the URL, apache will pick the phpinfo.html file, treat it as a type-map and load phpinfo.phtml.en) if instead I skip the content negotation, and use URL = https://server/phpinfo.phtml.en?klop=99, the $_GET variable is available.

So this basically means that when you use the type-map Apache is not populating the query string variable.

[PHP] Generating executable code
Currently, I have an XML file that I load in, parse manually and iterate through the nodes to create objects, etc, using the node values as parameters. This works all well and fine but is a little resource intensive. Now, I can create a XSL template to transform the XML file and output all the PHP code that we are doing manually. However, when the transformation occurs, the result is pretty much just a string as far as PHP is concerned; it isn't executable PHP code. I know I can output the result to a temporary file then include it or I can pass the result to eval() to execute the code, but neither is ideal. Is there another way I can do what I need? Is there a way to 'include' (for the lack of a better term) the result of the XSL transformation such that PHP processes it as it would any other source code? thnx, Chris

As noted, apostrophes will work in this case. If you need to embed a variable, however, you may want to re-read this from the manual a couple times: You can prevent a recognized character in the format string from being expanded by escaping it with a preceding backslash. If the character with a backslash is already a special sequence, you may need to also escape the backslash. So, for example: date(g:i:s a \o\\n l F j, Y); Here's what happens: PHP's string parser eats the \\ and turns it into a single back-slash: \ *THEN* you have \n being passed to the C date() function, which then eats the \n and says: This is then not the n for Numeric representation of a month, without leading zeros but just a regular old n as text. -- Some people have a gift link here.

No.
PHP doesn't care diddly-squat what is in your query -- It just sends
it to PostgreSQL.
The query you have written just plain won't work in PostgreSQL, period.
Try it in the psql monitor.

Almost for sure, you just need to strip out the VALUES ( bit and the

Re: [PHP] php.ini of PHP 5.2.3
OpenSSL has a secondary dependency on libeay or whatever it is. PHP might *think* it has OpenSSL, but until OpenSSL can also load in the libeay thingie, it ain't gonna work.

I can't see why you'd want to do this for anything other than educational purposes... Well, as the OP, I can first tell you all that I don't actually need to do this anymore quite like this. Basically, what I was trying to accomplish was that I have an application that has access to sensitive student data (like grades and stuff), and I wanted to write it so that it would log you out and display a different screen after a specified period of time just in case the instructor walked away from their computer we didn't want it displaying whatever the instructor was last looking at forever. So what I was doing was refreshing the page every 31 minutes and comparing with the last time the page was accessed (set via a session variable), and if longer than 30 minutes, it would log you out and show you a login form rather than the page you were looking at. The problem came in the fact that if you had 2 windows open simultaneously, the PHP couldn't tell if it was the background window or the front window doing the loading, so therefore it would never log you our. The solution, which came to me from some of the early comments, was to create a new page that the META refresh sent to (logout.php) and then anytime you hit that page, it logs you out. So if the background or foreground window now refreshes and gets sent to that page.
