RE: [PHP] integrating shipping with shopping cart site - OT
Thanks guys, yes in general we will go with a lookup for each country, it wont be accurate but in future we can build rates for each province / state for each country which an admin would have to complete for each product (time consuming) but for now the solution will work. Thanks for the responses and thoughts, they are much appreciated. I see the UPS class is also quite interesting but its only if you using them :) Cheers Angelo -Original Message- From: Jochem Maas [mailto:joc...@iamjochem.com] Sent: 19 January 2010 04:53 AM To: Angelo Zanetti Cc: 'php-general' Subject: Re: [PHP] integrating shipping with shopping cart site - OT Op 1/18/10 10:47 AM, Angelo Zanetti schreef: Hi all, We are about to start a new project.

I'd start with defining shippingcost 'sets', each defining a number of costs by weight bands, some 'table defs': set: - id name set_bands: -- set_id upper_weightcost then it would be a case of linking (many-to-many relation) 'regions' to sets, if you approach this with a tree of regions you can effectively set values at a continent, country, state/province level ... as such you would only need to relate a 'shippingcostset' to a state if the shippingcosts are different to the given country's shippingcosts. world - north america - california - south america - europe - france - UK then your left with the problem of determining the smallest defined region a given address physically falls into .. using geo-spatial magic in the DB would be one way to do it. this is a hard problem (unless, maybe, the client is willing to sacrifice precision and instead using highly averaged shipping cost definitions to cover the real differences in costs - i.e. a fixed fee for all of europe, whereby such fee is just above the average real cost the client pays for shipping). my guess would be that building such a thing is hard, and would take lots of time ... best bet is to hook into the webservice of whatever shipping company the client intends to use ... even if you have to build your end of the webservice from scratch it will be many factors less hard that building a user-manageable, shipping cost algorythm. - sorry it's all a bit vague, I'm very tired :) my eyes are starting to bleed.

[PHP] WYSIWYG editor to change textarea
Hi all, I have been looking to implement a WYSIWYG editor that will automatically transform a textarea into a Rich text area / WYSIWYG. We have lots of dynamic content that is pulled from a database and files. Therefore we cant really change the textarea field. I have tried the tinyMCE but its causing conflicts with some existing JS code that cant really be rewritten. A lot of other editors actually generate the rich text area in a strange way and don't use the textarea field at all. Are there any editors that you people will know of that operate in a similar way to tinyMCE, IE you include the JS in your head and it will change all the textarea fields to rich text areas?

Hi thanks for the links it appears that its all in order also I'm not losing

I have checked the garbage collection, disk space and other settings in the

So now I am really stuck and confused as to what could sometimes cause the

Is there possibly a way that I can call some function that will ensure that
the sessions are saved (I checked the manual - nothing much).
Any other ideas? Anything that you think might be causing issues?

Hi all,
I have solved the issue of lost session variables.
It appeared to be losing the SESSION variables when going from a POST from
HTTP to HTTPS, however it didn't always happen, so the logging allowed me to
narrow down where the losing was occurring.
The solution.
In my form that I post from the HTTP site, I put a hidden variable in there
and with the session variable.
In HTTPS it sometimes doesn't carry over the hidden variable therefore we
need to start the session with the old SESSION ID from the HTTP site.
So what I did was the following on the https site:
if (isset($_POST['sessionID']))
{
//http://stackoverflow.com/questions/441496/session-lost-when-switching-from
-http-to-https-in-php
// Retrieve the session ID as passed via the GET method.
$currentSessionID = $_POST['sessionID'];
//echo $currentSessionID;
// Set a cookie for the session ID.
$sessionid2 = session_id($currentSessionID);
}
Therefore setting the session ID with the session_id() function. This must
go before the session_start() function!!! Very NB!.
Hope this helps anyone who has a similar problem.
Regards
Angelo

[PHP] Extract an element from XML

I have the following segment of XML:
BookingReference ReferenceSource=api165432 /BookingReference
Now I want to get the value of the BookingReference where the
ReferenceSource = api. In other words I want to get the value 165432.
I have the following code:
$ItemConfirmationReference2 = $xpath-query('BookingReference

$ItemConfirmationReference =
trim($ItemConfirmationReference2-item(0)-textContent);
The $Element variable passes the node that contains the BookingReference

The tricky part for me is the =api part.

There isn't a problem with the script as it works on other servers with prior versions, so I am wondering if any one has any tips or ways to go about this error.

I mean, I am not masochist to create something that will give me more work in the end to develop PHP forms based applications than if I would type HTML manually. Furthermore, the plug-ins that come with the package dramatically reduce the amount of code you need to type to achieve the same generating common HTML inputs manually. Anyone can judge by yourself by going here and see several example forms and the actual code that it takes to generate them: http://www.meta-language.net/forms-examples.html For instance this scaffolding plug-in generates CRUD forms that you often need to manage data stored for instance in databases. http://www.meta-language.net/forms-examples.html?example=test_scaffolding_in put For those interested to check it out, the actual class package can be downloaded from here: http://www.phpclasses.org/formsgeneration Here you may watch an extensive tutorial video that covers practically all features: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/video/1/package/1.html Thanks manuel.

[PHP] DB search and case sensitive comparison
Hi all,
I have a question and I can't seem to get around the problem or finding a
total solution.
I have a DB with a list of entries, one of the tables has fields and one of
the fields is called the lookup_string field.
This field is used to checkup values when users enter the site (explained
below).
So basically what happens is that the user will enter the site and I will
get their user agent from the $_SERVER variable.
What I want to do is to find out which entries in the DB are present in the
useragent string.
Eg:
lookup_string (in db): Mozilla
useragent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.15)
Gecko/20080623 Firefox/2.0.0.15'
So what I did was I used the locate function in my mysql query which gives
me the correct result set.
Now what I need to do is to ensure that the lookup_string is in the
useragent string and the CASE is the same: IE: Mozilla and not MOZILLA or
mozilla etc...
I am using the following If (however it fails because its part of the
useragent string and not the whole complete string therefore providing a
mismatch).
if(strcmp($userAgent, $lookup_string)==0){
//matches
}
Else
{
//doesn't match
}
Which way could I accomplish searching for the lookup_string in the
useragent and that it's the correct case?
Thanks in advance.

I really am not sure where to start. I guess image maps arent going to work are they? Should I be using the GD library for manipulating the images and doing zooming? Also will the ai format be supported? Please guys, any tips, links or help is appreciated.

No, that's what kind of content the server is willing to accept from various sources such as POST. Er, no, that's what kind of content the browser is prepared to accept back from the server -- the headers starting from the GET line are what the browser sends to the server as part of the request. The lines starting at the HTTP/1.x line are what the server returns. In this case, you're getting a 304 Not Modified, which means the server is not even serving any content on this request, nor, probably, even a full set of headers -- it's just telling the browser it can use its cached page. To be absolutely sure what the relevant headers are, you need to force the server to send the full page -- usually, the best way to do this is to hold down the Ctrl key whilst clicking the Refresh/Reload button. Incidentally, I notice that what's being served here is a .html page, and the presence of a 304 response, and no PHP headers, suggests it actually is plain HTML, and not a disguised script, so this whole thread is really very OT...!! ;) However, this being the case, it suggests you have a static .html file on your site claiming to be charset=utf-8, but not saved in UTF-8! There are two obvious ways to solve this: (i) convert the file into UTF-8, or (ii) edit it to have the correct charset= value in the tag. -- Mike, thanks very much I have done a ctrl+F5 And have the following: -- http://fr.x.com/student/themes/english/locker_room/student.html GET /student/themes/english/locker_room/student.html HTTP/1.1 Host: fr.x.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14 Accept: image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Referer: http://fr.xx.com/student/themes/english/locker_room/student.html Cookie: PHPSESSID=5d5af707c9c34205d30708326872ad27 Pragma: no-cache Cache-Control: no-cache HTTP/1.x 200 OK Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2008 08:34:10 GMT Server: Apache/2.0.55 (Unix) PHP/5.1.2 Last-Modified: Sat, 17 Nov 2007 11:40:26 GMT Etag: 6b97e-a9d-619b9e80 Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 2717 Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=198 Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: text/html I can now see that the response is a 200 OK response.

[PHP] FRench characters not displayed correctly
Hi all. We have taken over a site and a problem we have is that French special characters aren't displaying correctly, they are displaying a weird square block. I have checked the content type and it's as follows: meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html;charset=utf-8 I also notice that the charset=iso-8859-1 is missing in the above meta tag, could this be affecting the characters?

You certainly wouldn't want both utf-8 and iso-8859-1 declared at the same time. It sounds like what you want is iso-8859-1 and NOT utf-8. Check the encoding of either your files or your database content. Also check what headers PHP is sending to the browser. If you're using Firefox you can check the page info to see what charset it thinks it received.

[PHP] Dynamic dropdown lists (select)
Hi all, I am looking at options for creating a dynamic dropdown list. Ok here is the scenario: All values in the dropdown list (select/option field) are coming from the database. So there will be 2 dropdown lists. First one say gets (for example) a list of cars, Then once the car is choosen the second list is populated with the list of models for the car choosen. I would like to know if its possible to do this without posting as well as without the use of JS. I have seen js examples where the values are all stored in arrays. This is not desireable as I will be getting the values from the the DB using PHP, unless I can write the JS values to the arrays using PHP? Also not sure of that. Is there any other idea or thing I can do? Im thinking maybe AJAX but this is for a mobile site (WAP/xHTML) site and Im not sure if the functionality will work on these devices. Please advise.

[PHP] SESSION Array problem - possibly different PHP versions?
Hi All, I have a problem that only occurs on our live server and not our local server. It works fine locally. Basically I am using a session array to store values of product colours. A user can add colours to the session array. The session is defined as follows: $_SESSION['color'][$counter] = $color; Obviously the first time we validate and the $counter is set to 0. When more colours are added the $counter variable increments and should increment the value of the array. The colours are added through a popup window. Before I open the popup window I print_r($_SESSION['color']) to view the contents of the array and make sure that they are valid and it is an array. Output is as follows: [color] = Array ( [0] = #339933 [1] = #00 ) etc... Then once the popup opens I do the same print_r And it now shows: [color] = #339933 There fore it isn't an array of colors within the session array. How can PHP change this? Also the strange thing is that locally it works fine but not live. So I am guessing that there is a problem with a certain version of PHP? Also Im not sure what else could be causing this problem? Any ideas or hints would be appreciated.

From where is the color data coming in to the script, a database? Check to make sure that the array is being populated. Also, you're not attempting to pass the session from your dev box to your live box, are you? Hi Daniel, thanks for the reply. The system works as follows. There is a colour picker, when a user clicks on a colour then it opens a popup window with the color set as a GET variable. They can then enter the price per colour etc... once done, they save it. It then saves the details to a session. The user then closes the window and it refreshes the parent page which has the colour picker and a listing of selected colours already choosen, after the refresh it shows the array values (print_r) and is correct the first time: [color] = Array ( [0] = #339933 Then if they do the same procedure again, once the popup opens it shows the session variable as: [color] = #339933 But nothing has been done to the SESSION variables since the save, so somehow between the the click and the popup opening something strange is happening. Like I mentioned it works on a local laptop as well as our local server so its strange, I have tried many times closing the browser to ensure all sessions are cleared. Any ideas what might be causing this error? Thanks very much -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

// Include your database config here.
// The field is_active is BOOL
$secs = 600; // Number of seconds to wait before considering logged out
$diff_secs = (time() - $secs);
$sql = UPDATE yourTable SET is_active='0' WHERE last_seen
'.$diff_secs.';
mysql_query($sql);
?
Then, add this to your crontab:
*/1 * * * * `which php` /path/to/cron/script.php
It will run every minute, making users who have not accessed a
page within the previous 10 minutes inactive. It's untested, but
hopefully it will point you in the right direction anyway.

[PHP] \n problems when creating an email
Hi guys, I am making email text based on some fields the user fills in and then email the admin the details. I am having a problem where sometimes the \n (new line) works and sometimes it just does nothing. Im not sure the cause but I cant seem to figure it out. Here is a segment of code: .\nHow far would they be prepared to travel to .\n event venue? \n\t\t\t\t\t. $travel .\nDo you have a specific location . \n of preference? \n\t\t\t\t\t. $locationPref .\n City or country preference:\t. $cityPref Here is the output: How far would they be prepared to travel to event venue? Z Logic e Business Cape Do you have a specific location of preference? Z Logic e Business Cape City or country preference:Z Logic e Business Cape As you can see the first line doesn't go to the next row before event But it works fine for the location \n preference Is there any reason it works for the 1 piece of code and not the next?

RE: [PHP] \n problems when creating an email
Looks like you're using Outlook. It has an annoying feature where it helpfully removes extra line breaks. This would appear to be what's happening here. When it does this it usually displays a notice somewhere to say it's done this and offers a way to undo it. Thanks, dam I been wasting my time trying to figure out the solution... However I see that with the tabbed (\t) formatting its very inconsistent in many email and web clients... Do you have a solution to ensure that the output is consistent always?

[PHP] languages and PHP
Hi all. this is more of a general question but Im sure some people will have experience and also it will be useful to others who are looking for the same answers as I am. What are the implications of having a site that has many different languages, including latin and non latin characters? Firstly, can a mysql database handle these characters normally? or would you have to have a table for each language and set a different CHARSET for each language depending on the type of language? Secondly, PHP and displaying the information: Is there anything that needs to change with regards to PHP and handling of these characters? OR is it able to handle all characters fine? HTML: I assume the charset changes in the metatag in the head of the document? Is there anything else that I might be missing or other problems that I should be aware of?

I believe it will handle the whatsit tag namespace-y thingie you are getting with that tag:0 business better than nuSoap, as I recall. I won't swear to it in court, though, as I only use PEAR::SOAP once before I moved to PHP 5 and my SOAP life was way way way cleaner. Thanks Richard.

The call method needs an array with parameters as far as i remember.
But i never use the call method anyway. I always go for the send
method.
First create your request XML.
$request = 'SubscriptionStatus xmlns='http://localhost/'
ISPIDxx/ISPID
ISPPasswordyy/ISPPassword
ISPUserIDAngelo1/ISPUserID
/SubscriptionStatus';
Then serialize the envelope so it looks like a SOAP request.
$msg = $client-serializeEnvelope($request, false, false,
'document',
'literal');
And use the send method to make a connection and send the request.
$action = 'location of the webservice';
The action variable is that the URL of the WSDL?
$results = $client-send($msg, $action, 60, 60);
Why do you have 60 twice? As far as I can see in the API the send
document is only receiving 3 parameters?
I have posted to many SOAP forums and the mailing list. No luck what
so
ever. Your the first to reply thanks, I think this could work.
Your help is very much appreciated.
regards
Angelo
Hey Angelo,
I know getting info for NuSOAP is a b*tch. Maybe switch to PHP5 and
the
SOAP extension?
The $action variable is not the WSDL url. I missed that part in your
first post.
The $action var is actually build up from two parts. The first part
being the webservice
location. And the second part is /webserviceAction
The reason i have two 60's in the method call is because in the
soapclient
class the method looks like this:
function send($msg, $soapaction = '', $timeout=0,
$response_timeout=30)
{
But in the meantime i've been trying some other things with NuSOAP.
And
got this to work with WSDL.
$request = 'SubscriptionStatus xmlns='http://localhost/'
ISPIDxx/ISPID
ISPPasswordyy/ISPPassword
ISPUserIDAngelo1/ISPUserID
/SubscriptionStatus';
$params = array('request' = $request);
$operation = 'WebserviceAction';
$result = $client-call($operation, $params, $namespace);
Hope this helps.
Hi, yes I have done it as you have specified with the call method
unfortunately for some weird reason that creates the duplication.
However I have almost got your previous mail working. But in the XML
request I have:
Now I see this is present: xmlns:0= -- its an error thats making
the
XML invalid any reason why its making that?
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
SOAP-ENV:Envelope
SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/;
xmlns:SOAP-ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/;
xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema;
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
xmlns:SOAP-ENC=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/;
xmlns:si=http://soapinterop.org/xsd; xmlns:0=
Another thing i that I have made the action variable to :
wsdlURL/SubscriptionStatus where wsdlURL is the URL of wsdl.
This also doesnt work but it might have to do with the above invalid
XML
so perhaps this is the correct way to create the action parameter?
Thanks again very much.
The empy xmlns means there is no namespace set.
I guess you didn't provide a namespace in the serializeEnvelope method.
The 3rd parameter is set to false in the example. But that's where you
should
set the $namspace.
The WSDL url should work if you take of the ?wsdl part.
Thanks again.
I have specified the namespace but the problem is that its creating the
weird characters:
xmlns:0=
:0 Im not sure where they come from and I'm not sure I need the name
space anyway
Any idea why its causing this character?
thank
try this:
$msg = $client-serializeEnvelope($request, '', array(), 'document', 'literal');
That worked! I assume that it was send it as an array element therefore
the 0 appeared causing the XML page to be invalid.
Thanks

$parameters .= ISPPasswordyy/ISPPassword;

$parameters .= /SubscriptionStatus;
$result = $client-call('SubscriptionStatus', $parameters,

To call the SubscriptionStatus process.
I have also tried:
/*$Request = array(
array(
'ISPID' = 'xx',
'ISPPassword' = 'yy',
'ISPUserID'='Angelo1')
);
$result = $client-call('SubscriptionStatus', $Response,
$nameSpace);
The request must look like this:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

ISPUserIDAngelo1/ISPUserID
/SubscriptionStatus
/SubscriptionStatus
/SOAP-ENV:Body
/SOAP-ENV:Envelope
as you can see the
SubscriptionStatus xmlns=http://...;
has been repeated. This is causing my problems. I am not sure what is
causing it? Does it have something to do with name spaces? OR the way
the client object is created?
This is a straight forward call but I have been searching through so

$request = 'SubscriptionStatus xmlns='http://localhost/'
ISPIDxx/ISPID
ISPPasswordyy/ISPPassword
ISPUserIDAngelo1/ISPUserID
/SubscriptionStatus';
Then serialize the envelope so it looks like a SOAP request.
$msg = $client-serializeEnvelope($request, false, false, 'document',
'literal');
And use the send method to make a connection and send the request.
$action = 'location of the webservice';
$results = $client-send($msg, $action, 60, 60);
Seems to make the XML request correctly but now the response from the
server is the WSDL file? strange even though my request is correct.
Im not 100% sure about the $action parameter? What must be entered
here? Also mustn't I specify the Element that is being consumed in the
webservice IE: SubscriptionStatus?
THanks again
The action parameter is something like: http://domain.com/webservice
From the WSDL file you can get the soapAction. This is where the
requests go.
I think you are sending the XML correctly. But to the wrong endpoint.
(https://netshop.openbit.com/SOS/SOSServlet)
Thanks once again. I think its working nicely but I don't get anything
from my send command but I can see the response and its not the WSDL now
but the response from the server.
Will have to check that its working 100% but is there any reason why
there is no result from the send command?
$result = $client-send($msg, $wsdlfile, 60, 60);
thanks again

It's probably better to ask on a NuSOAP list.
The call method needs an array with parameters as far as i remember.
But i never use the call method anyway. I always go for the send method.
First create your request XML.
$request = 'SubscriptionStatus xmlns='http://localhost/'
ISPIDxx/ISPID

And use the send method to make a connection and send the request.

Thanks Thijs,
This looks interesting will try it and give you feedback

Hey Angelo,
I know getting info for NuSOAP is a b*tch. Maybe switch to PHP5 and the SOAP
extension?
The $action variable is not the WSDL url. I missed that part in your first post.
The $action var is actually build up from two parts. The first part being the webservice
location. And the second part is /webserviceAction
The reason i have two 60's in the method call is because in the soapclient
class the method looks like this:
function send($msg, $soapaction = '', $timeout=0, $response_timeout=30) {
But in the meantime i've been trying some other things with NuSOAP. And got
this to work with WSDL.
$request = 'SubscriptionStatus xmlns='http://localhost/'
ISPIDxx/ISPID
ISPPasswordyy/ISPPassword
ISPUserIDAngelo1/ISPUserID
/SubscriptionStatus';
$params = array('request' = $request);
$operation = 'WebserviceAction';
$result = $client-call($operation, $params, $namespace);
Hope this helps.
Hi, yes I have done it as you have specified with the call method
unfortunately for some weird reason that creates the duplication.
However I have almost got your previous mail working. But in the XML
request I have:
Now I see this is present: xmlns:0= -- its an error thats making the
XML invalid any reason why its making that?
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
SOAP-ENV:Envelope
SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/;

xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
xmlns:SOAP-ENC=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/;
xmlns:si=http://soapinterop.org/xsd; xmlns:0=
Another thing i that I have made the action variable to :
wsdlURL/SubscriptionStatus where wsdlURL is the URL of wsdl.
This also doesnt work but it might have to do with the above invalid XML
so perhaps this is the correct way to create the action parameter?
Thanks again very much.

The empy xmlns means there is no namespace set.
I guess you didn't provide a namespace in the serializeEnvelope method.
The 3rd parameter is set to false in the example. But that's where you should
set the $namspace.
The WSDL url should work if you take of the ?wsdl part.
Thanks again.
I have specified the namespace but the problem is that its creating the
weird characters:
xmlns:0=
:0 Im not sure where they come from and I'm not sure I need the name space
anyway
Any idea why its causing this character?

[PHP] PHP and SOAP calls
Dear All I have been using nusoap to development a client that makes SOAP calls to a server. I have however been stuck on a small issue but can't seem to solve it and therefore I need to relook at using another package to get a solution. So I have read that PEAR also has a package that makes SOAP calls (PEAR::SOAP). And there is PHP-SOAP. Now Im running PHP 4.4xxx and I need to get this up and running ASAP. What would you suggest I use as the package to make the client calls? I have read that the PEAR::SOAP thing is fairly easy to use? Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations or what not to use and why?

So I know you can set the limit of the upload thats not a problem, I know a problem that we might experience is that the browser might time out. Is there any way around this? Nope. The browser gets tired of waiting around for the upload to complete because your server is too slow/busy, and the user has a very bad experience. file upload was grafted onto HTTP rather late in the game, and shows the scars badly. and also are there other problems I might encounter? Woof. Yes, there are many problems you might encounter :-) Users on slow/flaky connectionns will never have a good experience with HTTP file upload. Give them FTP or SCP or something that is more stable and will re-try. You also have to consider what users might choose to upload that is not what you wanted. There are all kinds of people out there looking to upload interesting content that you don't actually want, most likely. There is a Flikr book out there that might have some insight for you. They obviously dealt with this already, and wrote a whole book all about Flikr, so it's probably got something in there covering this. thanks for the replies. But how does a site like: http://www.yousendit.com/ do the upload of really huge files? Normal upload? thanks -- Angelo Zanetti Systems developer *Telephone:* +27 (021) 469 1052 *Mobile:* +27 (0) 72 441 3355 *Fax:*+27 (0) 86 681 5885 * Web:* http://www.zlogic.co.za *E-Mail:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] problem with composing URL with GET Variables
Dear all. I have a script that is called by an AJAX popup. Now I use an image file to get the path of an image for an img tag eg: img border=0 id=middleImage name=middleImage src=? echo $getImageURL; ? the $getImageURL is composed as follows: $getImageURL = getImage.php?imageid=. $imageID.height=275width=375quality=65; However when I look at the URL that gets sent its as follows: getImage.php?imageid=10amp;height=275amp;width=375amp;quality=65 Which is obviously incorrect. So I tried: $getImageURL = html_entity_decode(getImage.php?imageid=. $imageID.height=275width=375quality=65); But that doesn't seem to be working. . . As the html_entity_decode should the amp sign to the sign? Am I going in the right direction or can anyone else let me know if there is something I am missing or should be doing? Thanks in advance. -- Angelo Zanetti Systems developer *Telephone:* +27 (021) 469 1052 *Mobile:* +27 (0) 72 441 3355 *Fax:*+27 (0) 86 681 5885 * Web:* http://www.zlogic.co.za *E-Mail:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] CURL questions
Hi all. I have a script on a server that does some processing, now I want to execute that script using cURL. This is a basic scenario and I assume its possible but its not working. The script is as follows: $url = http://www/test.php;; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);// allow redirects curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); // return into a variable curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 100); $data = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); echo DATA: . $data; Now the $url I have taken out the path for obvious reasons. I get a 500 Internal server error, not sure why as this page being called just inserts a word into a database. Could the cause be something else network related? What else can I troubleshoot? or is my code incorrect?

Also, note that your setting CURLOP_RETURNTRANSFER twice and that my be messing with the curl call. yes i have tested with the browser, it works fine. I have removed the duplicate entry however its still giving the error do you think they are blocking the request? or should I be doing the request on a certain port? thanks in advance -- Angelo Zanetti Systems developer *Telephone:* +27 (021) 469 1052 *Mobile:* +27 (0) 72 441 3355 *Fax:*+27 (0) 86 681 5885 * Web:* http://www.zlogic.co.za *E-Mail:* [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] HELO command when sending email using PHP

Re: [PHP] Re: CONTENT-type for sending HTML attachments

Anyway I've written a few scripts that use the class to attach files to it. These files are HTML reports but Im not sure what MIME content-type to use. The content type I use to for the attachments is text/html. But Im not sure that the content type for the email itself should be plain/text as this just displays the HTML attachment as garbage in the body text. You should never send HTML only messages, as most spam filters will discard your message. Usually you need to have an alternative text part like the messages composed by normal mail clients. So if the HTML files are attachments and the text is just plain text then will the content-type of the message be text/plain and then each attachment be multipart/alternative. Please note that the HTML files need to be sent as attachments and not part of the body. On my email client I was receiving the emails correctly (IE: message body and HTML files as attachments) but on my client's email client they were just receiving blank messages. I'm just a little confused about the content types as you might have gathered. TIA. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
