You've got (init) instead of (int).  Its always those little

Hey David,

As a budding PHP developer (Been doing it off and on for the past 4  
years now.. Mostly off though...) I got some great advice early on  
from tedd sperling... When I have a problem that I can't fix... I sit  
down and write the e-mail to the list... Thinking through all the info  
that might be helpful to help debug it... What I've tried, what Im  
expecting... Things of that nature...


Usually by the time I'm done writing the e-mail I'e figured out the  
problem... Not always but once I get done with writing it, if I still  
can't figure it out I don't feel so bad hitting send and lighting up  
everyones inboxes with my mindless drivel :P

That makes sense. If I carefully think about what Tedd said, I see it this 
way: when writing the E-Mail it will take us mentally through the steps as we 
are typing them and it will probably get us to realize where it went wrong.

As for me, I'll say whatever I want as the topic permits. If you

a statement of requirement for the code I'm providing. My second

forward my postings to the trash and don't use my code.

It appears as though I struck a wrong chord. I honestly did not mean 
to upset you. :) My point was that we should not be overtly 
confrontational towards one another, but it seems that only 
exacerbated the situation. My sincerest apologies.

Michiel:

Don't worry -- I forgot about what was said already.

Granted, I am passionate about the government, but that's because I 
think it's important and I see it headed in the wrong direction. Much 
like witnessing a child running into the street, while others sit 
back and don't raise alarm because they might be accused of being 
politically incorrect, I see there's more at risk here than that.

[PHP] Problem with IE7 caching

2010-05-07 Thread Charlene Wroblewski
I have a problem with IE7.  It has a tendency to cache output produced 
by PHP.  It occurs in a few ways:


   * I make a minor change to a php program, but you can't see it in
 IE7, but can in FF.  CTRL-Refresh does not make it work.
   * I modify data using a form in IE7.  When I click on a link to
 return to the form the old data is still there, but if I hit
 CTRL-Refresh the new values are there.

I have set up some caching to try to fix the second issue, but I'm not 
sure if I've chosen the right header lines:


  $now = time ();
  $prety_lmtime = gmdate ('D, d M Y H:i:s', $now). ' GMT';
  $prety_emtime = gmdate ('D, d M Y H:i:s', $now + $interval). ' GMT';
   // Backwards Compatibility
   header (Last Modified: $prety_lmtime);
   header (Expires: $prety_emtime);
   // HTTP/1.1 Support
   header (Cache-Control: private, max-age=$interval,s-maxage=0);

I got this code from a book.  I don't want to prevent caching completely 
because I want to be able to go back to the form when there is an error 
in validation of fields before entering it into the db.  But I do want 
to be able to see the new data after it is entered in the db.

Re: [PHP] simplexml choking on apparently valid XML

This time simplexml-load-string also gave me the same error on the following

Can anyone confirm whether simplexml-load-string will or will not accept or

 It's returning Premature end of data in tag client_orderitem_number line 90

 I have run the XML through a couple of online validators and it does come

Does anybody know if this is there is a standard functionality to do

Sounds like you need attach the data somehow when hitting that return  
link. Maybe an array

$newData = array();//fill this array with the new values

On your form page, set up a

if(isset($newData)){
//fill form fields
}

I did notice that on your header, you did not have no-cache.

 header (Cache-Control: private, no-cache, max-age=$interval,s-

A lot depend on the really 'helpful' IE settings. You actually have to  
configure the POS to always check for a new version.


Also if there are any proxy servers in the middle, then it gets tough.  
One of my clients has had serious issues with proxies that required me  
to work with their internal IT teams to allow exceptions for the app.

  I would take this as a hint to prefer intval() instead of casts.
  initval($foo) would have drawn a fatal error - can't be overseen. ;)

 Casts are an order of magnitude faster than function calls.

Is there some type of function I can write to catch up?

   header (Cache-Control:

About storing the values, I really would rather the browser keep track 
of form input if I can.  It could get confusing trying to store 
temporary information, especially since the form is being used to modify 
a client profile as well as create a new password for the first time in 
the application (not my choice - I'd rather do passwords first and then 
allow them to modify info).

About storing the values, I really would rather the browser keep  
track of form input if I can.  It could get confusing trying to  
store temporary information, especially since the form is being  
used to modify a client profile as well as create a new password  
for the first time in the application (not my choice - I'd rather  
do passwords first and then allow them to modify info).

Are you using sessions? I would store it in a session variable. That  
shouldn't make things too confusing.
Also, I would make sure the form page header has the no-cache in it,  
since that is the page you dont want caching.
Or call on that form page with the time attached to the end of the  
link url like what what suggested by Bastien.
This will make sure that page doesn't cache. Then set up your session  
variables to store the form results.
Then use the isset condition on the form page to apply the new values  
if they are present.

Re: [PHP] Re: Finding similar results with php from mysql

2010-05-07 Thread Teus Benschop
  I am searching for a way to show the user similar records from the mysql
  database. A functionality like this could also be of interest to you.
 
  Does anybody know if this is there is a standard functionality to do
  this, or a good way on retrieving this with the help of PHP?

There is the LIKE clause in the SELECT statement, or, better still,
MySQL's full text searching capabilities.

Teus.
