 But I'm putting that on the side right now.

 I think the docs are still screwed up. Try sqlite3_open() instead and
 see if that works. Also, check phpinfo() to see if the SQLite/SQLite3
 modules are loaded.

 I tried with sqlite3_open() and it gave the same error.

  THEN ... 'check phpinfo()'
Obviously sqlite extension is not actually loaded.
You don't aey which OS ... On windows there are a list of extensions in the 
php.ini file, just 'uncomment' the one(s) you need ...

There is no sqlite3_open() - there is only an OOP interface for php_sqlite3.

I wrote to the list in frustration about this choice not too long ago, and
concluded that the only way to accomplish this is to:

1.) Use php-sqlite3 extension (not to be confused with the php_sqlite3 -
dash vs underscore) - but this isn't a great solution because it would mean
you would need to ask your host to enable a custom extension, which they
usually don't do. If you're hosting this app on your own server, then give
it a bash.

2.) Otherwise, get involved in PECL development and help give php_sqlite3 a
procedural interface.

Of course, if you're looking for basic database storage, then SQLite2
(php_sqlite) would work fine.

Best of luck,
Lawrance

I am not understanding why 'true' isn't the result of this syntax because
$subjects equals:

$subjects = Delivery Status Notification(Failure);

Here is my syntax:

if ( stristr( $subjects, Delivery Status Notifcation(Failure) ) ) {
$TIRSFlag = true; 
echo true;
}

You have misspelled 'Notification' in your comparison ...

You should probably use Regular Expressions for this kind of thing.

Best of luck,
Lawrance

Regexes are best used when what you need to match is dynamic or in a
dynamic string. When you know what the output will be and can match
it, the str* functions are much better as they are much more
efficient.

Agreed ;-)

If $message_body contains:

$message_body=You are subscribed using u...@domain. To update;

How do I capture just the e-mail address?

Regular Expressions ... They're great at this sort of thing!

I'd suggest starting here:

http://www.regular-expressions.info/email.html

Then take a look at the PHP regular expression manual:

Have fun!

RE: [PHP] __call and recursion

[Lawrance Shepstone]

Hi Daniel,

Could you please tell us what version of PHP and OS you're using.

The following code fragment runs as expected on my PHP 5.3.2/Windows/XP/32bit:

?php

header('Content-Type: text/plain');

class A
{
private function method_a( $argument )
{
echo('private method_a(\'' . $argument . '\') ...' . 
PHP_EOL );
}

public function __call( $method, $arguments )
{
if( method_exists( $this, $method )  is_callable( 
array( $this, $method ) ) )
{
call_user_func_array( array( $this, $method ), 
$arguments );
}
else
{
echo('method \'' . $method . '\' either does 
not exist, or is not callable ...' . PHP_EOL );
}
}
}

$a = new A();

$a-method_a('argument');

$a-method_b('argument');

?

Results in:

private method_a('argument') called ...
method 'method_b' either does not exist, or is not callable ...


Perhaps if you provided some code we could spot the problem.

I would guess there's something fishy in your __call() method.

Best of luck,
Lawrance

 Hello,

 I've defined a __call() method inside a class.  Within the __call()
 method (after testing that the method exists and is callable I am using:

 call_user_func_array(array($this,$method), $args);

 However, this seems to be an infinite loop (and is crashing my test
 apache server).  How, could I still use the __call() method and avoid an
 infinite loop of calling?

 Thanks,
 dK

__call() is receiving $method.

Do you alter $method in any way?

If not, calling call_user_func(array($this, $method), $args) will
simply call the non-existent function.
