[PHP] zend framework & getIdentity
Hey Folks,
Getting a weird error...
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Session_Exception' with message
'Zend_Session::start() -

Has anyone seen this error before? Its throwing me for a loop

Are these inside classes or anything? If they're just functions, they

[PHP] Node.PHP
Hey,
So i had my first Hackathon at work last week and my project was to
prototype making a node.js clone using PHP instead of V8. So i
snatched up libuv and joyent's HTTP parser and set off on a 24 hour
coding spree to get something workable. By the time the sun was coming
out the next morning the following code was working.
listen(8080, function($request, $response) {
$response->end("yay, super awesome response");
});
nodephp_run();
?>
The C code that powers it was whipped together really fast and is kind
of hackish as a result. The code has some memory leaks that i haven't
had time to fully track down yet. Some small portions of the code were
borrowed from the phode project.
In a naive benchmark on this simple server VS an equally simple server
in node.js this implementation already out performs node.js in
throughput by being able to serve just under 200% the amount of
requests per second that node.js could. Take that with a grain of salt
though because node.js has much more feature and is much more hardend
from production use. I do believe the PHP binary will have some major
performance gains over V8 as crossing the PHP <--> C barrier seems to
be a much lighter operation then crossing the V8 <--> C++ barrier.
Any help or feedback will be greatly appreciated. The projects source
code can be found here: https://github.com/JosephMoniz/node.php

[PHP] Zend Framework - getParam() Question
Hi Everyone,
Zend Framework getParam question
I'm trying to get a value from the url...
I know how to grab:
http;//www.website.com/index/user/1
that's the index controller, $this->_getParam('user'); (value = 1)..
What I'd like to be able to grab is just off one thing from the url...
example.. I want to give an article a unique/clean url... so, when I go to:
http://www.website.com/article-clean-url
I can somehow grab that 'article-clean-url' as a value and use it for a
lookup in the database.
I've tried everything and search all over the place. I can't find the
answer. Can someone tell me how this is done? Thanks...

[PHP] Handling multiple form fields
Please i want to seek your opinion on how to handle large form fields, i have a table that contain 30 fields and i`m wondering if there is a better way to automatically create the html form and validate it. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] PHP Modular application
I appreciate you all. the php community is a wonderful community. i`m developing an application that i need to support plugin for additional features, i have used joomla and prestashop. i love the way module interface on prestashop and i have been looking into the classes but i did not understand the theory behind the module positioning. All modules must define at least a position, the position may need to exists inside the template where the module will be displayed. second, assume i have a registration form with 10 Fields matching 10 Fields in a table and later i want to add like 5 more Fields, did i need to alter the table and my scripts again? or a plugin should take care of that, i need some theory to take care of such situation.

[PHP] Image Replication
Hi, I'm wondering how you all are doing image replication between servers. I've got some things in mind, but I'd like to see how others have done it.

Well, your basic logic is:

else

[PHP] PHP app & Server Load
Hi, This is slightly OT... We're wrapping up a new PHP/MySQL driven web site built on the Zend Framework. We're anticipating a couple hundred thousand members with several thousand of them coming to the site at once. I'm trying to figure out how to determine how many servers we need to support the load. I've done initial testing on a Xeon 3220 server, but we're looking at an i7 cpu based server now. Anyone know a good way to estimate load based on actually numbers compared to benchmark results from intel on a faster server? -- -Dan Joseph www.canishosting.com - Unlimited Hosting Plans start @ $3.95/month.

Wow! thanks... I just plopped it into phped and fired off some tests, and
I agree, seems to work fine. I appreciate your help today. I am still

Howdy, This is a math question, but I'm doing the code in PHP, and have expunged all resources... hoping someone can guide me here. For some reason, I can't figure this out. I want to take a group of items, and divide them into equal groups based on a max per group. Example. 1,252,398 -- divide into equal groups with only 30 items per group max. Can anyone guide me towards an algorithm or formula name to solve this? PHP code or Math stuff is fine. Either way...

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to figure out if something is even an option with the Zend Framework. We use the DB Table stuff. I don't see it in the manual, so I figured I'd ask you all... I have: $select = $table->select()->where( "home_team_id = ?", $home_team_id ) ->where( "away_team_id = ?", $away_team_id ); This translates the where's to "home_team_id = 12 AND away_team_id = 15"... What I'd like to have is "home_team_id = 12 OR away_team_id = 15". Is this possible? Or would I just need to build them all into a single where() manually? -- -Dan Joseph www.canishosting.com - Unlimited Hosting Plans start @ $3.95/month.

Re: [PHP] Dumb Question - Casting
According to the PHP manual using the same expression, "Never cast an unknown fraction to integer, as this can sometimes lead to unexpected results".

In order to make this as "sql server independent" as possible, the first thing you need to do is not use extended inserts as that is a MySQL capability.

Hi. I'm looking for the most efficient way to insert several records and retrieve the auto_increment values for the inserted rows, while avoiding crippling concurrency problems caused by multiple php threads doing this on the same table at potentially the same time. I'm using mysql atm, so i thought "stored procedures!".. But alas, mysql docs are very basic. I got the gist of how to setup a stored proc, but how to retrieve a list of auto_increment ids still eludes me; last_insert_id() only returns for the last row i believe. So building an INSERT (...) VALUES (...),(...) at the php end, is probably not the way to go then. But the mysql docs don't show how to pass an array to a stored procedure, so i can't just have the stored proc loop over an array, insert per row, retrieve last_insert_id() into temp table, and return the temp table contents for a list of auto_increment ids for inserted rows. Any clues are greatly appreciated..

RE: [PHP] Mysql statement works in phpmyadmin but not in php page
I was going to write an example as to what should happen instead of what
actually does when id dawned on me why MySQL works the way it does. One of
the biggest complaints people have with MySQL is in speed. To demonstrate
what I just realized, take the following statement that will select the hour
from a given time as well as the value from the hour field:
SELECT HOUR('13:42:37') as thehour, hour FROM mytable;
Not a big deal and pretty straight forward. What about the following?
SELECT HOUR(mydate) as thehour, hour FROM mytable;
Still pretty simple to determine which are the functions and which are the
field names. However, take the following:
SELECT HOUR(NOW()) as thehour, hour FROM mytable;
As humans, glancing at it, it makes perfect sense to us as to which is
which. However, try telling a computer how to interpret the above
statement. You could look for parenthesis. That would work fine on the
first two statements, but once you get to the third, you have to worry about
recursion and all possible permutations of the data that could come through.
This exponentially increases the complexity and processing time/power
required to run the query. Granted, that query is a simple one, but plug it
into a query filled with multiple joins, and you have the potential of a
nightmare. So why focus on adding in functionality that adds so much
complexity and will end up requiring that much extra support when a simple
character (the tick mark) will take care of the work for you and you can
then focus on other things such as data integrity and general processing
speed?

Backticks are also required to preserve casing in MySQL, if you name
something in mixed or upper case; MySQL lowercases table and field names
otherwise. It's a silly misfeature of MySQL.
I can't conceive of why a DBMS would assume something which should be
understood in the context of a field name should instead be interpreted
as a function call. Buy maybe that's just me.

That is a good idea to use the curly braces. I consistently forget
about them, and fell like an idiot every time I am reminded of them.

My personal preference these days is to use Curly braces around
variables in strings such as this, I always find excessive string
concatenation such as is often used when building SQL queries hard to
read, and IIRC there was performance implications to it as well
(though I don't have access to concrete stats right now).
In your case, the variable would be something like this:
$query="INSERT INTO upload_history (v_id,hour,visits,date) VALUES
({$v_id}, {$hour}, {$visits}, '{$date}')";
Much more readable and maintainable IMO.
No need for the trailing semicolon in SQL that uses an API like you
are using so save another char there too.
Backticks around column names are not required and IMO again they just
make the code hard to read. Just because phpMyAdmin uses them, doesn't
mean we all need to.

Re: [PHP] Mysql statement works in phpmyadmin but not in php page
Try putting tick marks (`) around the field and table names. So your
SQL query would then look like:
INSERT INTO `history` (`v_id`, `hour`, `visits`, `date`) VALUES (45, 0,
59, '2010 01 27');
This is a good practice to get into. The problem is that MySQL allows
you to create tables and fields with the same name as functions. If the
tick marks are not there, then it assumes you mean to try using the
function. In your case, hour is a function in mysql. I would assume
that the reason it works in phpmyadmin is that it filters the query
somehow to add the tick marks in.

Re: [PHP] PHP generated HTML has submit button which picks up the wrong url.
"What you maybe ought to consider is using several submit buttons, and
give each a name and a value. That way, your PHP script can check for a
specifically named variable sent from the form. That way, you keep many
people happy, and your site still works perfectly."
The problem with doing it that way is that IE is not happy with multiple
submit buttons in a single form. To get around that, you can use image
input types or buttons. Also, a return key does not send values the
same way as a mouse click. I can't remember which browser does what,
but the three possible submitted values are (providing the name of the
button is submit):
submit
submit_x and submit_y
submit_x, submit_y, and submit
Just something to be aware of if you are looking for the value of the
submit button -- not 100% reliable. It would be better to use a hidden
form value or just check to see if submit or submit_x is set.

Re: [PHP] MySQL ID -- what happens when you run out of range?
That is incorrect. What will happen is as follows: 1. The value will be incremented by 1 causing the value to be greater than the maximum integer allowed. 2. MySQL will see this as a problem and "truncate" it to the closest value. 3. MySQL will then try and insert the new row with the updated id. 4. MySQL will find that the id already exists, and will return a duplicate ID error. If you want to verify what occurs, create a table with a tinyint value for the id and autoincrement it. It is correct also, that you cannot use negative numbers for the autoincrement field.

Re: [PHP] Backup to local drive
PHP cannot create a folder structure on your local machine. I don't think Javascript or VBScript can either. Your best bet is with the zip files. Windows users have it fairly simple actually (as much as I hate to admit it) as all they would have to do is right-click and "Extract". You can always include instructions in either an on-screen format or a README file (or both). As I have been thinking about it, you are going to need to do a zip file so that the user only has to download a single file.

Re: [PHP] move_uploaded_file
When used in PHP, an absolute path does not go off the web root. In
Premise 3 below, an absolute path of "/upload" will NOT bring up the
directory "/home/prof3ta/projects/moodle/htdocs/upload" but rather
simply "/upload" In Windows terms, an absolute path would be
"C:\upload" versus "C:\home\prof3ta\projects\moodle\htdocs\upload". The
only time an absolute path is figured relative to the web root is when
it is referenced in a browser. At this point, for all intents and
purposes, it locates the file based on the web root. This is a
fundamental difference between absolute and relative paths.
Absolute: begins at "/" in Linux operating systems and "C:\" in Windows OS
Relative: begins wherever the running script is located in the file system.

Re: [PHP] move_uploaded_file
You should be able to use either an absolute or relative path. In the
code below, the path specified is absolute (it starts with /). If you
want it to be relative to your current directory, change the line to:
$uploads_dir = 'uploads'; or $uploads_dir = '../uploads';
So basically, it all depends on how you define your path.

Re: [PHP] Using Curl to replicate a site
If the site can be a few minutes behind, (say 15-30 minutes), then what I recommend is to create a caching script that will update the necessary files if the md5 checksum has changed at all (or a specified time period has past). Then store those files locally, and run local copies of the files. Your performance will be much better than if you have to request the page from another server every time. You could run this script every 15-30 minutes depending on your needs via a cron job.

If you're going to use ImageMagick, make sure you have the latest

Assuming you have a unix-like OS and the timezone you mention is set to the
system clock I will have to guess that PHP uses different zone from the
system.
Try setting the date.timezone setting in your php.ini and see what happens
(don't forget to restart the web server to make changes take effect) or use
the ini_set().

1. It is possible that the php.ini files are different.
2. Run phpinfo() to check where the php.ini file your web server uses is
located.
3. Check that the timezone settings are correct.
