[PHP] imagecopyresize???????
Hello List, I am new here, and I am hoping this will be a quick and easy for someone to help me with. I am trying to create an upload form that lets a user upload a product photo to the server. In the process of this upload, I want to take the file they are uploading and create two images to put on the server. Both are specific sizes. A large image and a thumbnail. I then want to throw away the file they uploaded. My question is what is the proper way to do the uploading/resizing/ destroying? I have been toying with imagecopyresize, but it never works. I think I just have parameters out of order or something. Also, I would like to put a copyright on the side. I have been able to use imagestringup to do that, but it covers the image I'm placing it on with a transparent background and deletes the image. How do you duplicate an image with transparency? Or keep the transparency an image already has? Most grateful for any help, pointers, tuts. Best, Karl DeSaulniers Design Drumm http://designdrumm.com

Yes, you should have a PHP script on the server to do the processing, (call it, say, "process.php") and one which paints the basic screen for the browser (call it "page.php" or somesuch). But the connection between these should be AJAX code in the page.php script. That will most likely be Javascript in the page.php script which will "ping" the process.php script for whatever contents you want. The Javascript to do this is beyond the scope of this list (it's a PHP list, after all). The "process" script doesn't have to be PHP. It could be any language you prefer, as long as you can get it to return JSON or XML to page.php, so that the Javascript in the page.php script can interpret it. Paul -- Paul M.

Re: [PHP] Updating HTML on page
The only way to do it with PHP alone would be to control the output buffering and I've found that to be inconsistant in quality and predictability with different browsers even web servers. I'm sure there's an art to getting that all working well with various technologies that are involved in the script -> client caching and processing, but why mess with iffy when you can use a proven technology like AJAX. Get familiar with jQuery (or one of the other big JS libraries, but jQuery is my choice hands-down) and you'll probably find it's pretty easy. -TG - Original Message - From: "Ashley M.

[PHP] Updating HTML on page
I have a PHP script that queries a DB to get a list of image names. Then it processes each name and generate thumbnails and what not. What I want to do is have a page called (through the browser) which updates as the PHP process in the background is working. So when you first pull up the page it will say 'There are x images to process' and then dynamically update the page with a progress status. In its crudest form it should say something like 'Processing 1 of 5 images .' When that image is done, it should update the page with 2 of 5 . etc., etc. Ideally without refreshing the page each time. Is this where I need to figure out Ajax and incorporate it with PHP?

[PHP] Logical reason for strtotime('east') and strtotime('west') returning valid results?
Hi,
Long time no speak!
As part of a quick filter I'm writing I try to interpret free text
strings as dates and textual data.
Sometimes, this goes wrong.
For example, I discovered that some words (or strings beginning with
those words) will return false positives:
e.g.:
[co...@jimmy Search (working)]$ php -r 'var_dump(strtotime("east"));'
int(1270514111)
[co...@jimmy Search (working)]$ php -r 'var_dump(strtotime("west"));'
int(1270488914)
[co...@jimmy Search (working)]$ php -r 'var_dump(strtotime("now"));'

i tried with utf8_encode, that doesn't help. Yes both content-type & metatag

1: try utf8_encode instead of iconv
2: check the headers being sent and that they include:
"Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8"
as this normally overwrites and choice you make in html.
a good way of debugging this is to view the page in firefox and see menu
option "View -> Charecter Encoding -> "; the one presently selected
is generally the pages "real" encoding, and you can flick between
iso-8859-1 / utf-8 to see which one "fixes" your problem (then change
headers accordingly).

I suppose there is some logic there when working with factories, which

degree of sense in PHP, even though the OO models are quite similar.
So, I'll throw the question out. Who uses example 1 above vs. example

writing dependency-injection-based OOP? Why? What trade-offs have you
encountered, and was it worth it?
Other than theoretical reasons, one practical reason to have getters and
setters is to make live easier for IDE's.
I never thought the above two are in conflict. Usually parameterized
constructors are provided along with getters and setters - each is used
for good reasons.

Well, in the first place, you don't simply send a series of words to the
other end after opening the connection. Most protocols define a
conversation that happens between the two ends of a new connection. So
you have to wait for the server to send you a welcome message with a
prompt and reply to that. Then wait for the next prompt and reply to it.
So instead of just blasting out these strings, you need a receive loop
and parser to interpret what the server is saying to you. Once you know
what it says at each step you can decide how to respond.
SSH adds another layer in front of this to select key exchanges,
ciphers, hashes, etc. You don't want to write an SSH client. It can take
days just to read and understand the protocol definition.
A few minutes on Google should produce some useable examples of clients
for various protocols. It shouldn't take much work to read a basic
Telnet client written in Perl and transpose it into PHP.

[PHP] unsigned chars
Hello, is it possible to return unsigned chars from an extension? I have looked and cant find anything on it, or maybe i am looking for the wrong keywords. Thanks -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Howto send command over ssh using sockets
Hello, thank you for response, more in you text: Instead of ssh, you could use telnet to connect to the Cisco router (which incidentally runs on port 23, but is likely to be disabled on I want to use my script against FreeBSD router and against RouterOS so I need ssh. I can use system function to call ssh command, but I can try it over php tools. Or if you do not like the idea of sending clear-text passwords to the router, you might want to learn about proc_open() (or popen()) and use the native ssh utility that most likely is present on the server, taking great care to READ THE MANUAL for the ssh command, because you most likely do _not_ want it to spit out ANSI-escapes to you script. It will be probably better way than system function. If I fail with using sockets I use this. Thank you very much. Radek
