Re: [PHP] PHP4 vs PHP5 classes
Since the Players method is a constructor, it's more about how you set
the object(s) up.
What does the loop look like before you create a new object?
Well see here is where it gets messy! This is not my code - I've ported a
phpnuke module over to dragonflycms.
The $players object is created before the loop:
$players = new Players($lid);
The loop is quite big, but here is the important part:
-SNIP-
while (list($pid, $name, $gsid, $stat) = $players-fetchSelectData()) {
if (DEBUG_LEAGUE == YES) echo trtd colspan=\22\\$maxcol =
$maxcol | \$pid = $pid | \$name = $name | \$gsid = $gsid | \$stat =
$stat/td/tr\$
$noplayer=0;
if ($prevgsid != $gsid) {
$prevgsid = $gsid;
$players-selectHeaders($gsid);
if (DEBUG_LEAGUE == YES) var_dump($players);
displayPlayerSetupRow($players,
.getlink($module).amp;file=indexamp;mode=$modeamp;lid=$lidamp;sid=$sidamp;gsid=$gsid,
$order);
}
-SNIP-
function displayPlayerSetupRow is also very big, but here it is up to the
troublesome $players-max call:
-SNIP-
function displayPlayerSetupRow($players, $go=, $prevorder=0) {
global $bgcolor2;
if ($prevorder==)
$prevorder=0;
$urlstart=;
$urlend=;
$max = $players-max();
-SNIP-
Then we enter class Players as previously mentioned:
-SNIP-
class Players extends dynamicTable {
var $setup;
var $lid;
var $size;
var $max;
var $data;
var $data_result;
var $data_index;
var $player_stats_result;
var $player_stats_data;
var $player_stats_index;
var $player_stats_start;
var $player_type_result;
function Players($lid) {
global $prefix, $db;
/*
* Find max size of rows
*/
$this-lid = $lid;
$this-max=0;
$result = $db-sql_query(select * from . $prefix .
_league_games_setup where lid = $lid);
while (($rows = $db-sql_fetchrow($result))) {
$c=0;
for ($i=3; $i 23; $i++) {
if ($rows[$i] != )
$c++;
}
if ($c $this-max)
$this-max = $c;
}
$this-index = 3;
}
function name() {
return ($this-setup['name']);
}
function max() {
return ($this-max);
}
-SNIP-

Re: [PHP] PHP4 vs PHP5 classes
Maybe setting $this-max should be done in fetchSelectData since that's what is causing/creating your loop. Thanks Chris, I copied the code into the fetchSelectData function and it seems to be working fine now! Just need to test removing the code from the constructor to make sure its still working, and also test that php4 is still working. I'm just concerned that the code might also be called from somewhere else.

I don't know anything about the Informix functions, but in other database
types fetch_row can return doubly indexed entries. e.g.
array(
0 = 'John',
'name' = 'John',
)
I would suggest you use var_dump() or var_export() to get a better idea of
what is in $name - you might find if this is the case that your code
is not necessarily wrong because you are getting the right number of rows.
Note it is hard to tell from your code - because your code would run
print_r() for every loop - but that isn't what your suggested output is.

[PHP] Thumbnail through PHP RSS parser
Hello, folks!
I'm trying to parse RSS feed and display it on my own page.
MagpieRSS looks good enough for me, but I have a little problem.
http://magpierss.sourceforge.net/
I want to display not only the title and description of each article,
but the thumbnail as well.
For example, I tried to do that with this feed.
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/front_page/rss.xml
Everything is alright with the title and the description, but I can't
do the thumbnail thing. What I've tried is the following:
foreach ($rss-items as $item ) {
$title = $item[title];
$url = $item[link];
$description = $item[description];
$thumbnail = $item['media:thumbnail'];
echo a href=$url$title/a/libr;
echo $description;
echo img $thumbnail;
}
As I said before, the other things are fine, but it's not showing the
thumbnail. This is the structure:
titletxt/title
descriptiontxt/description
media:thumbnail width=X height=Y url=url/
And the following line of the php code returns blank result.
(probably because we require parameter of media:thumbnail, not
the value 'inside' it):
$thumbnail = $item['media:thumbnail'];
So I am interested in that parameter url, but I do not know how
can we get it.
Thanks in advance for any help!

You need to look at how to read the attributes of the element using
magpie. Note that your surrounding it in a img tag just wont work as
it does not use the standard src= attribute that an img element expects!
I've not used it but vardump() or print_r() on the $item will probably
show you what you need to do.

Thanks Chris, I copied the code into the fetchSelectData function and it
seems to be working fine now!
Just need to test removing the code from the constructor to make sure its
still working, and also test that php4 is still working.
I'm just concerned that the code might also be called from somewhere else.
You've cured my headache!
Don't forget that in PHP5, the constructor named has changed. In PHP4 it
called a method with the same name as the class. But, in PHP5, it looks for
__construct() instead.
I workaround that I use is this:
?php
class myClass {
function __construct() {
}
function myClass() {
$this-__construct();
}
}
?
With this type of construct, your classes will initialize the same between
PHP4 and PHP5.

[PHP] XML Encoding
Guys, I'm building a XML in a PHP Script. Everything works fine until I add accented (ISO-8859-1) characters into it. As far as I can see, there's no way to change DOMDocument's encoding from UTF-8, right? Thanks, -- Thiago Henrique Pojda
RE: [PHP] Please, I need help with curl and php
Thanks for your time As you can see, I´m trying to connect to a web site and: * I need to use a cert. This cert is pem type * I go out from my net throw a proxy with an user and pass * I need to collect cookies And the most important, I need to catch the answer from this script. The script that I send you has a lot of variables, but I'm replacing it with the real value in mi app. the problem is that I don't know if my code is correct, and why I´m receibing the error message: Error 58: unable to use client certificate (no key found or wrong pass phrase?) I know that my password is correct, so I think that the problem is related to my php code . Since I don't see the code, my guess is that there is something going on with the snippet regarding the error above. There is an article online regarding API errors and talks about the same error you are coming across: Unable to use client certificate (no key found or wrong pass phrase?) You are receiving this error becuase you have the wrong path for the PEM file. Also make sure you upload the PEM file in ASCII format for UNIX servers. On a UNIX server the path for the PEM file should look something like this: $myorder[keyfile] = /home/htdocs/www/linkpoint/123456.pem; On a WINDOWS server the path should look like this: $myorder[keyfile] = c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\linkpoint\\123456.pem; If you can not determine the path for the PEM file you can use the following code: (make sure the PEM file is in the same directory as your PHP file) $myorder[keyfile] = realpath(123456.pem); I hope this helps.

[PHP] XML Encoding - with examples
Okay,
After much iconv, headers and workarounds I figured I can't use
DOMDocument for XMLs when under ISO-8859-1 encoding without messing accented
chars.
The idea is simple: get a query result and turn into a XML. Using
mysql_fetch_object is the best way for this task.
If I just do nothing: get iso text, insert into the XML and not set the
encoding, the XML loads (w/o xml content type in header) but it's a bad
thing to do (not all browsers like this).
Anyone have any ideas why the following doesn't work or how to fix it?
The right thing to do, which doesn't work.
?php
header('Content-type: text/xml; charset = ISO-8859-1');
$unidades = listarUnidadesSetor(58,1); //returns a stdClass -
mysql_fetch_object
$doc = new DOMDocument(1.0, 'ISO-8859-1'); //setting XML Encoding to ISO
breaks in the first accented char
$doc-formatOutput = true; //Figured this does nothing
$xml = $doc-createElement( unidades ); //root element
$doc-appendChild( $xml );
foreach ($unidades as $unidade)
{
$valores = get_object_vars($unidade); //all object atributes (row
name/value in mysql table)
$unidade = $doc-createElement( unidade );
foreach ($valores as $atributo=$valor){
//$valor = iconv('ISO-8859-1','UTF-8',$valor); // iconv messes with
accented chars
$node = $doc-createElement( $atributo );
$node-appendChild(
$doc-createTextNode( $valor )
);
$unidade-appendChild( $node );
}
$xml-appendChild( $unidade );
}
$doc-appendChild( $xml );
echo $doc-saveXML();
?
The wrong thing, which correctly gives me the xml file with correct
encoding and everything (just built it myself as a string, no DOM functions
are used):
?php
header('Content-type: text/xml; charset = ISO-8859-1');
$unidades = listarUnidadesSetor(58,1);
$xml = ?xml version=\1.0\ encoding=\ISO-8859-1\?\n;
$xml .= unidades\n;
foreach ($unidades as $unidade){
$xml .= unidade\n;
$valores = get_object_vars($unidade);
foreach ($valores as $atributo=$valor){
$xml .= $atributo $valor /$atributo;

Are you sure the accented characters you are using are part of
ISO-8859-1 and not UTF-8? I don't have your data set, but I ran your
code with a list of country names some of which include accented
characters. It worked fine if I set the XML document encoding to
UTF-8. (It even worked fine if I used the iconv line you have
commented out, but I'm any XML reader that tries to use the ISO-8859-1
encoding to read the file will spit out the first character that
doesn't belong to the set.)
Is there any reason in particular that you MUST use ISO-8859-1 rather
than UTF-8? The former is a subset of the latter, so I would think
you'd save yourself the headache if you just used UTF-8 for
everything.

[PHP] foreach question
Hey Everyone...
So I am attempting to pull 2 random records from a MySQL database, so
I wrote a function which I'll paste below. I had it mostly working
with a while() statement, but I wanted to try a foreach to see if I
could get the formatting a little bit better.
Basically... What it does is grab 2 records at random from the
database, and display the images. What I want is something that looks
like this: img1 VS img2
right now though... I'm at a lose to figure out why it's not returning
any records but not throwing any errors... Any ideas what I'm missing?
?PHP
//function for pulling random pictures from the database
function random($random){
$randomQuery = SELECT * FROM `current` ORDER BY Rand() LIMIT 2;
$result = mysql_query($randomQuery);
$row[] = $result;
foreach($row as $key = $value) {
$random[$key] = $value;
}
return $random;

Re: [PHP] Programming With Revision History
Hello, Think in this way: You would be needing two tables: first one: content table: contentID, contentType, revisionID --- contentID is the PK ( you can make the UI for adding and deleting these fields) content_revisions table revisionID, contentID, -- revisionID is the PK Great things start from simple thinking. You can use this model to implement revisions. In some PHP CMS we currently have they also use serialized data fields for each revision. --- Thanks

I've done something very similar. I have a delivery timestamp column
in the table that is initially NULL, and I set it to UTC_TIMESTAMP()
for each row as I send the message. My query looks like this then:
SELECT * FROM mail_queue WHERE delivery_timestamp IS NULL LIMIT 100.

Re: [PHP] limiting the amount of emails sent at a time in a batch send
I would use a temporary table to hold all the email created in one job.
Have a status field marked as sent, waiting or open.
Have a cron job set 'x' number of open emails to waiting. Execute
periodically.
Have a cron job to send all waiting email and update status to sent.
Execute periodically.

Re: [PHP] Why PHP4?
Its because PHP got really famous with version 4.0 and many people actually converted their CGI or other websites in to PHP 4 websites because it was easy and cheap. But 5.0 brought too many changes like serious OOPS and register global concepts for security, which is useful but made transition difficult. I feel thats why PHP 4 is still supported. Its not only the language that has changed, but also people had to upgrade their skill set and there was some learning curve involved. Unfortunately everyone fell in the trap of register globals which was not dealt until php 4.3.1 as a security concept. Pear and Pecl were there but everyone was pretty much writing all the code (reinventing the wheel) from scratch. This brings in huge code base to change. I liked PHP because intitially it was a procedural langauge and it resembled C. But now with OOPS you can build powerful websites which is good. There are many other cases but I feel strongly this is what makes them still support PHP 4. Thanks
Re: [PHP] Why PHP4?
I started using superglobals since 4.x; not even thinking about it from a security angle per se, but because it just makes sense to know the source of where your input data is coming from. I guess technically security is a byproduct of that thinking too.

Re: [PHP] Why PHP4?
I agree but not everyone think in the sameway. I have seen several big websites that got hit because they haven't used super globals in the code and their hosting provided would just change the PHP.ini setting and nothing would work. GET, POST , SESSION, REQUEST everything was all dealt as just variable.

Re: [PHP] PHP4 vs PHP5 classes
Don't forget that in PHP5, the constructor named has changed. In PHP4 it called a method with the same name as the class. But, in PHP5, it looks for __construct() instead. If __construct doesn't exist then it falls back to the php4 way - makes it backwards compatible :) -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It's unfortunate that PHP5 decided to throw a Strict Standards exception
when you include both style constructors. For instance, I'm certain at
one point the following was recommended:
?php
class Foo
{
function __construct()
{
}
function Foo()
{
self::__construct();
}
}
?
This was perfectly compatible with PHP5 and gave precedence to the PHP5
constructor style. Somewhere along the line though PHP5 started
spouting:
Strict Standards: Redefining already defined constructor
So I just completely removed the PHP5 style constructors from my code
and use the PHP4 style since then there are no exceptions. Mark my words
though... at some point PHP will start spewing an E_DEPRECATED for PHP4
style constructor *lol*.
Cheers,
Rob.
