Re: RES: [PHP] inexplicable behaviour SOLVED
$Count = $Count + 1; is *exactly(?)* same as $Count++; Â or ++$Count But not exactly same. Â PostFix notation adds the value after assigning . PreFix notation adds the value right away.

Re: [PHP] utf-8 ?
I think you should switch to utf8-general-ci all the way.
[PHP] Re: utf-8 ?
I looked at http://developer.loftdigital.com/blog/php-utf-8-cheatsheet which suggests this: ALTER DATABASE db_name CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci DEFAULT COLLATE utf8_general_ci ; ALTER TABLE tbl_name DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci ; or I could do it with phpMyAdmin, right? and the only difficulties would appear to be fixing any accent stuff (don't know yet just what) and that would only be time consuming. I guess I'm just looking for reassurance that I don't muck up anything and then have to do tortured acrobatics to redress things again. :-) Changing to UTF8 is time consuming but if programming can be used it would ease the effort. I have seen a WP plugin for that as well. And in phpmyAdmin you'll have to set the collation for all fields and tables one by one. :) Regards Lenin www.twitter.com/nine_L
Re: RES: [PHP] inexplicable behaviour SOLVED
Thanks for the clarification, Mike. In my ignorance, I was under the impression that the right side of the equation was only for the use of the left part. How stupid of me. So what I should have been doing was $Count1 = $Count + 1; right? $Count = $Count + 1; is exactly(?) same as $Count++; or ++$Count But not exactly same. PostFix notation adds the value after assigning. PreFix notation adds the value right away. But optimized programming argues about how machine is coded nowadays. Anyway, I don't need that statement anymore as I found the error of my ways and have corrected it. And behold, the light came forth and it worked. :-) Regards Lenin www.twitter.com/nine_L www.lenin9l.wordpress.com
Re: [PHP] Re: utf-8 ?

What do you do for really large DB cases? Regards Lenin www.twitter.com/nine_L www.lenin9l.wordpress.com
[PHP] Re: utf-8 ?
I just converted all, or thought I did. phpMyAdmin: in the structure view of the db show Collation as latin_swedish_ci ??? in the individual table structure views the fields show utf-8 general ??? I don't see any difference on Firefox running on FreeBSD but it show correctly on Wimpy XP ??. In the web page the accent for French shows as a ? within a white diamond on FBSD. In the database the entry is the French chatacter with the accent. I'm now trying to figure out how to enter the accents on FBSD in Firefox. Nuts! This is torcher. How does one become truly international? Without much argument you should just follow What Robert has told Just dump your db and you can replace the collate to desired one and then put back in DB server et voila!

Re: RES: [PHP] inexplicable behaviour
I have pagination set up and the number for pages next has a link but the next does not. I have experimented with all sorts of configurations of the code but the only thing that works (and this is totally off the wall) is to do this *$Count* = *mysql_num_rows($results);* $Count1=*$Count++;* // without this, the next does not do the link--- but there is no other $Count1 in the code either in the original page or the include page. the script should work even if u replace $Count1 = $Count++; with $Count++; There's a NICE video tutorial available on pagination over the internet. You should watch it. You are counting the number of rows of a result. And you are asking to increase the count by 1. :D Thats not realistic. pagination is done with the help of mySQL's * LIMIT recNUMBER, count* * Look for Pagination with PHP + MySQL and watchit http://www.google.com/url?sa=tsource=webct=rescd=10url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestechvideos.com%2F2008%2F07%2F02%2Fsampsonvideos-php-pagination-part-2ei=ohn0SdnlL8KLkAWQrNTbCgusg=AFQjCNEGKOIG3791BpgeVqCiiq5-cikbRA Dont miss this SampsonVideos .

Re: [PHP] How can I detect an exception without using try/catch?
What would be nice is a function like get_current_exception() that
would either return the current exception object, or return false
if there is no exception.
I guess the try catch pair works like this:
you try to run a part of script which you know it could be under errors
You tell your boy to play(but a bulley comes often):
try {
Go boy try to play
}
catch (street_bulley_came) {
do not cry or dont swear at the bulley dont be afraid

Re: [PHP] Unable to send mail from PHP to ATT e-mail address
Does ini_set actually change the php.ini file in any way ? The reason I ask
is that after putting in:
Yes it does. :)you should have refered to the manual before using the line.
Did you write your own myem...@myserver.com? or you kept that exactly
like in code?
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'myem...@myserver.com');
into a new script which I tested out against, the 'mail' function now
continues to work but no e-mail is received no matter what the recipient
e-mail is. Even is I go back to using my old script which does not have the
'ini_set' in it, no e-mail actually gets receoved even though 'mail'
succeeds when called. So I have gone from bad to worse and the ini_set seems
to have affected all calls to 'mail' in this way for PHP scripts on the
server.
Can I correct but somehow stopping PHP ( or may Apache ) and restarting it
again to bring back the original php.ini setting ?
For now you can go back to set the php.ini to default with the
ini_set function.
You can use ini_get to retrieve data from the php.ini configs
a phpinfo() will show you all the current settings.

And for the explanation, you set $mysqli_get_support_types = Select

So when you echoed $mysqli_get_support_types[types], and it wasn't an

Re: [PHP] $_GET verses $_POST
One thing you should know is that when you use $_GET, you'll be sending a little information about the particular page to the browser and therefore it would be displayed in the address bar so for example if you're using get on a login page, you'll be showing user id and passwrod in the address bar. $_POST does the exact opposite of $_GET in that aspect and it's ideal. $_REQUEST does both. Its also important to know that some critical information like multipart meta data cant be sent via get. And GET method is not safe too. Large chunks of data are sent via POST method. $_REQUEST is not advised to use for security reasons.. there are senior and experienced programmers here who will elaborate more onto this :)

It looks like the semi-colons were removed somewhere, so none of it actually runs. But you would probably need a set of dis-assemblers to find out what CPU that code was written for and what it actually does. Next question: You said there are multiple comments like this. How do they differ, if they do? Possibly they are trying code for different CPUs. Did you trace these back to the logs to see if they all come from one IP or subnet? Is there anywhere to report these attempts that would actually do any good, or should you just ban that IP. But this one goes into my journal as something to be prepared for.

If it is single table, then Oracle can export that to a CSV file which MySQL can import. You simply have to make sure the column types match. If it is more complex, then you need to spend some time translating the relationships from the Oracle schema into a MySQL schema. There is no one to one correspondence here, in spite of the promises of the SQL standards. Once you have done that, you may still be able to use the CSV files, but will need to determine what order to import them and how to restore the relevant indexes. I think this idea solves it a lot. i have like 4 to 7 tables only and both database has the same schema. So, CSV would be a good idea.

output the error. Like so:
?php
//
$result1 = mysql_query($sql1,$db) or die(SQL:

?
If the query fails on $sql1, PHP runs the 'or' as a failure
fallback and dies by printing the SQL query given and MySQL's error
response.
Thank you for that. I had not used that as I thought that
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
would be enough. =-O
The error reported now is to check the syntax near the commented out lines.
So, what is going on here? I understood that when the lines are
commented out they are not lprocessed.
When I deleted the commented out lines the errors went away.

Re: [PHP] Re: 2 forms, same page, 1st is file upload - works in IE, 'dies' in non-IE browsers
It sounds like a script error rather than a PHP error. Use Firebug which will show you the HTML as it is updated by Javascript, so you can see where the problem is. I'm willing to bet that the Javascript code you are using is IE only. Yeah, php is never browser specific. It is rendered to HTML before browser can see it. So all browsers will react the same with PHP. But will differ on the client sides like JavaScript.

It's easy to check in that example, but imagine a case in the switch

Thankyou for the help,
I will contact the script maintainer to ask him to work on this problem for
future updates, and for the moment I've commented out the line that
specifies the length.
I suppose that it won't cause any problems with files that are sent through
this script that are not gzipped (this script allows html, js, css (all
compressed with gzip) as well as images that aren't compressed.
From what I understand the best would be to detect if gzip is activated for
each file and only allow the header to specify the length if the file is not
planned to be compressed with gzip (images etc).
As we discussed, the declaration of size of the file is COMPLETELY
unnecessary in this case.

test.js is only a few lines long, and if I remove the header content

I thought about zlib gzip taking maybe a long time to load but I've
changed the compression level from 6 to 1 and the file still has a the same

Content-Length MUST NOT be sent when using a
Transfer-Encoding (eg. gzip).
See: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-4.4
And I goofed: Transfer-Encoding is the stuff that says
chunked. I was thinking of Content-Encoding. But the
section I refered to also says:
If a Content-Length header field (section 14.13) is present, its
decimal value in OCTETs represents both the entity-length and the
transfer-length. The Content-Length header field MUST NOT be sent
if these two lengths are different
[And a little further down, it mentions that the
recipient can arse it. I'm not sure quite what
to make of that. :-)]
- - -
Come to think about it, I've written some output handlers
to convert utf-8 to utf-16 or -32, which uses either
'Content-Length' or 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' depending
on the size of the output. Perhaps I should change that to
always 'chunked'...

So, question is NOT whether php is interpreted or compiled, or is there a compiler, question is rather is that compiler useful for my problem.Best regards 1. you should *try* to standardize everyone on a single IDE/tool-chain 2. a decent IDE will give warnings about vars that are [seemingly] uninitialized or used only once. 3. a compiler can't cover all situations (variable variables, vars defined in optional includes, etc) 4. there is no silver bullet. 5. try to compartmentalize code so that the scope of a var doesn't exceed the number of lines you can view in a single screen (makes it easier to spot typos, etc) 6. I am not a number. I completely agree with Hans, as PHP cant be directly compared to that of java's behaviour. All of your team should be using a single IDE or at least good IDEs like Zend Studio, Eclipse PDT, NetBeans PDT while Netbeans is currently the best. PHP is more of a loosely typed language you cant really rely on compile time or something like that to be able to detect old typo bugs etc. The other way is writing a separate engine to detect those sorts of bugs, but using IDE and checking them manually can only ensure the perfectness.

I've given you a simplified version of the script that has the exact same

problem with any files that are gziped (css, html, javascript etc... but not
images.).
So the problem seems to have someting to do with this line :

and with gzip ...
I think content-length is not a thing you have to mention. Only I have seen
its required for image type data yet.
I would like to be able to activate gzip again but I need to work out why
I'm getting this bug first.
Apache isn't installed with mod_deflate, should I look into doing this
instead of turning zlib.output_compression on again ?
Is there maybe a bug with PHP 5.2.9 that's causing this problem?

Well, have you tried using Content-Type: text/javascript as
suggested? Is application/x-javascript absolutely necessary for
whatever application is reading your script's output? As it has
already been mentioned, Apache may be looking for your content type in
some sort of lookup table, not finding it, and taking its sweet time
returning control back to PHP while it grabs at straws to match.
Re: [PHP] Conclusion of use strict...
You got it all wrong. As explained, php dont have real compile time like other languages. And if you want to learn a language, you have to start the way it acts. the E_STRICT setting will tell you most of the errors possible from a php script. At production level programmers keep the errors away from visitors eyes by redirecting them all to log files. If you use PDT like NetBeans (which is regarded as the best one yet... there's one version of Visual PHP for Visual Studio developers as well) As you have got to check the errors for typos its the best way to get aid of the PDT IDEs.

allow_url_fopen means you can fetch pages:
$page = file_get_contents('http://www.example.com');
This is ok to enable - all it does is fetch the page. It does
not execute the code it retrieved.
allow_url_include means you can remotely include code as if it
was on your server:
include('http://www.example.com/page.html'
http://www.example.com/page.html%27);
That means if http://www.example.com/page.html includes any php
code, it will be executed on your server - this one definitely
is a security consideration.
If you enable allow_url_include be very careful about what you
include.
If you're still not sure, enable url_fopen, do not enable
url_include.

Hi Chris
Can i use curl option to php to take care of the security issue so that i
can disable both allow_url_fopen allow_url_include in php.ini file.
allow_url_include is a security issue because it will actually execute the
code returned from the url (like an 'include' or 'require' does locally).
allow_url_fopen is not a security issue - it only returns the code, it does
not execute it.
But yes you can use curl instead of relying on allow_url_fopen.
Well, allow_url_fopen is really a security issue. A renowned programmer (
http://hasin.wordpress.com) said it could even cause DoS(Denial of Service)
for the running server.

I haven't coded in PHP for a long time, but I think that your problem

$result1 = mysql_query($sql1,$db);
Up to that point, $db (that should point to a database link
identifier) is not defined. You probably want to assign the
mysql_connect result to that $db variable.
So, I think that you will solve your problem by changing your
mysql_connect line FROM the current form:
mysql_connect('biggie', 'user', 'password', 'test');
.. TO this one:
$db = mysql_connect('biggie', 'user', 'password', 'test');

I find it pretty annoying to need to run script over and over again just to find out that I made typo in variable name. see error_reporting(E_ALL|E_STRICT);:) Is there some way for PHP to cache some data on the page? I like very much PHP's speed but it would be even better to be able to cache some frequently used data from database? Also regarding databases, I liked a lot java's way of sending data to database using parameters (select * from user where username = ? and then passing parameter separately with database doing necessary escaping and everything). Is there something like PHPDBC similar to JDBC?

Re: [PHP] Re: catch the error
PJ you should be getting Warning errors the way you had the code. You definitely is a fun lover and enjoy moments. But while coding dont only think of fastness of coding but also code with logic. I was going to answer you about the $db but later I found lots response already came so didn't really dig to get the errors. Look back, see, I asked if you got rid of the errors :) Now, if you dont use the variable in the parameter it will look for the immediate opened database resource but if you use a variable. THEN it must contain that required resource thats just OBVIOUS reason. And, your error reporting should be reporting that. I haven't checked the code. A funny thing is you are making others think for the things you should be thinking. I dont say its bad.

Visit : www.ubuntu.com -- 2009/2/26 phphelp -- kbk phph...@comcast.net Hello -- - Ernie -- -- - Consulting work is a business. Work doesn't fall from the sky. You have to figure out what you do. Not good enough to say I'm a programmer -- that and a dollar will get you half-a-cup of coffee at McDonalds. Figure out where your strengths are. Figure out where you have or can cultivate contacts. Spread the word. If you don't have a demonstrable portfolio of projects from your employer or clients that you can show or discuss with others, you had better develop one. Do you have an industry that you know more about than the average developer? Do you have graphics skills, too? Do you understand how a business works? Every unemployed programmer calls himself a Web Developer. Every unemployed graphic designer calls himself a Web Designer. People who have been doing one or both for *years* call themselves the same thing. Most potential customers have no clue who is good or bad. Can you do the design work, or just the programming work. This isn't a place to get work; (based on the nature of your questions) there are 100s of folks here with more experience and savvy than you, and I bet every one of the independents have room for more clients. I have been in this business for 20 years. If you are flailing around asking naive questions like this, you probably are better off with a job. Maybe 10 years ago, someone with mid-level skills and no business acumen could be a successful web developer just because the industry was growing so fast and there were so few people with real skills. Now the situation is the opposite: there are lots and lots of people with skills. There are still jobs around, but you have to work harder to get them. If you want to be in business, you need to think like a business person (who just happens to have a technical set of skills).

I'm in the process of correcting that in more than 150 files in one project alone. There are two other bigger projects that require the same treatment. All three also make extensive use of magic quotes and register_globals, which are likewise becoming extinct. well if you wanna keep short tags.. then ?php echo ?xml would be better idea.

The dirname function is present in both PHP 4 and 5 and does not rely
on any external libraries. Are you sure you're spelling it right?
http://php.net/dirname
dirname
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
dirname — Returns directory name component of path
Description
string dirname ( string $path )
Given a string containing a path to a file, this function will return the
name of the directory.
Parameters
path
A path.
On Windows, both slash (/) and backslash (\) are used as directory separator
character. In other environments, it is the forward slash (/).
Return Values
Returns the name of the directory. If there are no slashes in path , a dot
('.') is returned, indicating the current directory. Otherwise, the returned
string is path with any trailing /component removed.
Changelog
Version
Description
5.0.0
dirname() is now binary safe
4.0.3
dirname() was fixed to be POSIX-compliant.
Examples
Example #1 dirname() example
?php
$path = /etc/passwd;
$file = dirname($path); // $file is set to /etc
?
Notes
Note: Since PHP 4.3.0, you will often get a slash or a dot back from
dirname() in situations where the older functionality would have given you
the empty string.
Check the following change example:
?php
//before PHP 4.3.0
dirname('c:/'); // returned '.'
//after PHP 4.3.0
dirname('c:/x'); // returns 'c:\'
dirname('c:/Temp/x'); // returns 'c:/Temp'
dirname('/x'); // returns '\'
?
I must be really dense...
What I don't understand in the above is this - dirname refers to what
directory? -- the directory of the file that is including? what if the
directory is the root directory of the site?
(_FILE_) = what? - (_filename.ext_) or (filename.ext) --- what file is
this, the file which is including the file header.php?
The __FILE__ (note 2 _'s either side) constant is the full path and
filename to the current script. The dirname function knocks the
filename off it to give you the directory the current script is in.
You can then append a / and then the relative path to the script you
want to include. By doing this you're ensuring that all includes are
relative to the current script and are not affected by ini settings or
anything else.
and what does the . mean and then /../header.php --- I don't
understand what to enter here
the . before the quotemark is the concatenation operator which joins the
string(texts) together. :)
The . is the string append operator. I tend to assume the most basic
level of PHP knowledge from users of this list and I include the
string append operator in that set. You might want to find a beginners
tutorial for PHP and work through that to give you a solid foundation
before attempting to work with multiple scripts.
-Stuart
What confused me here is that often, in examples, there are all sorts of
references to files and there seems to be no standard as to how to refer
to them in non-scripts such as these e-mails. So, I thought that
dirname(_FILE_) was a general reference to a directory name and a
file... :-(
I don't want to defend myself here, but I cannot be expected to know all
functions and look up anything that might resemble a function...
I still do not understand, and that is the keyword here, I am trying to
understand things - what does /../header.php mean. I know the 2 dots
mean a higher directory in Unix... but I understood that ../ would mean
the root directory - so what is the / before the ../header.php mean?
When including scripts or pages, i find that if I am referencing to the
current directory, just the filename or /filename works. If the
reference is up a level, ../ works
e.g. to reference root/images/ from root/authors = ../images/file.ext
from root = /images/file.ext or images/file.ext
I haven't needed to go to a deeper level yet.
