[PHP] What's up with Quercus?
Although I've been mostly using Java and Ruby in my professional software development work for the past decade or so, in the past two or three years I've started to do more and more PHP. I originally started using PHP because I needed to set-up and customize Drupal for a project. Although as a programmer I've come to feel comfortable writing PHP code, I still don't feel like I have a good sense of where PHP is going as a platform and what's it's future is. As the Drupal site has continued to grow both in terms of features and usage, it's become clear that this is something that I need to research and educate myself about. That led me to give a closer look at Quercus, the implementation of PHP 5 that runs on top of the JVM. I'd already heard about it somewhere along the line, but it's only in the past couple of weeks that I've actually pulled it down, read through the documentation and some of the source and tried it out. So far I'm pretty impressed and enthusiastic about it. The cancellation of PHP 6 combined with the steady trickle of PHP-related bugs and security vulnerabilities that have become public over the past few years had made me very nervous about the future of the platform. Having an open-source implementation of PHP that runs on the JVM, which is like the gold standard for server application performance and reliability, is reassuring. The fact that it makes it easy and fast to use the huge library of Java frameworks out there in your PHP applications doesn't hurt either. Although I've had great results so far in my experiments with Quercus, I'm curious to hear about other PHP developers' experiences with it. Even though it seems like a significant number of people are using it for production applications, I'm curious why it's adoption isn't even higher than it is? Given the difficulties of writing a Virtual Machine, it seems like leveraging the JVM is a no brainer. Is there some technical drawback that I'm unaware of or is it just a case of inertia?

[PHP] add item to end of (multidimensional) array
Hi, How can i add new items to an array without using an index. Normally (single dimension) you can do: Arr[]="x" and this item is added to the array, but what if i have subitems like: Arr[]['name']="arnold"; Arr[]['address']="street". This last example doesnt work and i think there will be an easy solution but who can tell me this?

Re: [PHP] How to load another php page?
Hi Graham, This works fine! Without the ob_start and ob_flush commands, all the header() commands have to be put before the HTML tag, otherwise an error is displayed about header information that was already sent. Now i put ob_start() on the first line before and i can put the header() command everywhere before ob_flush()! Suggestions from others about using the "include" command doesnt work fine because the php name in the browser isnt changed to the new php file and that results in some variables like $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] keeps pointing to the old php script. This works fine, but i'm surprised that this was such a difficult question (i'm not very experienced in PHP). I expected that there would be some kind of command like "load script.php" to call a new script. Without your solution you have to let some user constantly push a link or button and define a new php script to that action. Thanks for your help!

Re: [PHP] How to load another php page?
Ok, i can live with it, include works but this doesnt replace the whole running script, only the rest of the script (what is still coming), so if a few things have been written in "a.php", when "include('b.php') is executed, this "b.php" does not replace all the (allready written) output of "a.php".

Re: [PHP] How to load another php page?
I created another php page with html and php code in it. What i want is exact what is done in an form action when a new php file is loaded, but without letting the customer pushing a button. Include works for including php code with functions and the header() function works if it is the first output sent in the script (otherwise you get errors like: Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xx.php:5) in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xx.php on line 31 But what i want is to load another php/html script and stop the running script. I guess it should be done with the header() function but then i have to put the test rigth in the beginning of the script?

Re: [PHP] How to load another php page?
This (header() function) works only if this is the first output sent to browser so later in the script this doesnt work anymore, i've tried that. After that you get error messages like: "Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xxx.php:5) in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\xx.php on line 31" So what i want is to go to another php file everywhere in the php script with something like: if(thisistrue) { load y.php; exit; } Arnold "Lists" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Hmmm, I'm not sure I am following you.

Re: [PHP] How to load another php page?
I don't think include replaces the calling php script. What i mean is that i want exactly the same as what is done by an "submit" action but then you have to press a button, whereafter a new phpfile is loaded and the button-press is what i want to ignore.

[PHP] How stable is CVS releases?
Hi all, I am having a problem with compiling PHP 4.3.2 on Solaris 8. The compile runs ok but blows up when I try a make install. Before submitting this a bug I downloaded the latest CVS release to see if it has been fixed. It has! Unfortunatly, I do not know how stable the CVS version is for production use? At present 4.3.1 has some serious bugs (i.e persistent connections not working) but we hve implemented workarounds. What I would like to know is, is it worth waiting for PHP 4.3.3 or just use the CVS version?

hi, thanks again. questions: 1. sleep(300) would mean pause by 300 mins, right? That's why i thought you mean usleep(300) - 300 microseconds. please comment 2. what you mean is i will send 5000 emails, then pause and send again? Thanks for your help. > I send roughly 1M of these and put a sleep() (not usleep - that's microseconds) > into the while loop - I've come up with a decent balance that sends out a good > number (like 5000) and then sleeps just long enough to get them out of qmail's > queue, then it sends another 5000 (and so on). > > Usually takes about 24 hours to send out 1M messages. > > --Joe > > On Fri, Feb 22, 2002 at 03:36:33PM +0800, Arnold Gamboa wrote: > > thanks for the comment > > > > let's just say i have 100k emails to send... don't you think that will drain > > the system resources if i send it all at once even if you have usleep(300) > > on each while? > > > > your comment please. > > > > > put a sleep(300); at the end of your while() loop - I did this on my mass > > > mailer and it worked like a charm. > > > > > > --Joe > > > > > > On Fri, Feb 22, 2002 at 02:53:10PM +0800, Arnold Gamboa wrote: > > > > hi there. > > > > > > > > is there a way to tell crontab to do: > > > > > > > > "run script every 5 mins for 1 hour".. > > > > > > > > i have this mass email script that is so huge that i need it to chunk > > into > > > > records and make sure that it will run every 5 mins for 1 hour. > > > > > > > > Thanks for any help. > > > > > > > > > > -- > > > > > > -- > > - > > > Joe Stump, PHP Hacker, > > -o) > > > http://www.miester.org http://www.care2.com > > /\\ > > > "It's not enough to succeed.

Re: [PHP] crontab help
thanks for the comment let's just say i have 100k emails to send... don't you think that will drain the system resources if i send it all at once even if you have usleep(300) on each while? your comment please. > put a sleep(300); at the end of your while() loop - I did this on my mass > mailer and it worked like a charm. > > --Joe > > On Fri, Feb 22, 2002 at 02:53:10PM +0800, Arnold Gamboa wrote: > > hi there. > > > > is there a way to tell crontab to do: > > > > "run script every 5 mins for 1 hour".. > > > > i have this mass email script that is so huge that i need it to chunk into > > records and make sure that it will run every 5 mins for 1 hour. > > > > Thanks for any help. > > > > -- > > -- - > Joe Stump, PHP Hacker, -o) > http://www.miester.org http://www.care2.com /\\ > "It's not enough to succeed.
