Re: [PHP] Header issues
Perhaps you can do some juggling to make this work, passing the query to the server, then using a client side language to transmit those results to the appropriate frame. Sounds like a big headache to me though.

Not using header() at least. header() happens on the server, targeting a frame happens in the client. -- John C.

Re: [PHP] functions vs classes
I know I sure appreciate reading any discussions on OOP issues, as they are something I just cannot seem to grasp. Thanks! Martin Austin Brent Baisley [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/04/2005 08:44 AM To: DuSTiN KRySaK [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: PHP php-general@lists.php.net Subject:Re: [PHP] functions vs classes At the most basic level a class allows you to group your functions together. On small projects, grouping of functions may not seem to buy you anything. But the bigger the project gets, the more you would like to be able to keep your functions separated into groups. One simple advantage of classes is that they prevent naming conflicts with your functions. This is very important when you are sharing code since you don't know what another programmer named their functions. What if you both name a function get_one_record? If you use classes, you only need to keep the names of your classes unique. Which then means you can use the same generic function name across all your classes, and you interface within your classes in a consistent manner, only the context changes. For instance, you may have a class call companies and another called contacts. Within each you may have functions called get_list, get_one and delete_one. Same function names, but in different classes so they don't conflict. Now you could create a generic interface to view a list, view a record or delete a record. What data is displayed depends on which class you load. The function names are all the same, so you don't need to change your code when you change the context (companies or contacts). This is hardly a tutorial on OOP. But maybe it will give you an idea of the benefits of using classes.

The way I see it, is a function if for repeated use in a project specific manner, where as a class could be used for many projects. is this correct? Although one could just include the function library in multiple projects. Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Parsing... the hell of PHP
$url = a href =\.$url.\.HtmlEntities($url).\./a; It appears the parse error is at the end of your opening link tag, so PHP doesn't know what .HtmlEntities($url) means. I'm at work so I can't test it, but that appears the culprit to me. $url = a href=\$url\ . HtmlEntities($url) . /a; should suffice.

Re: [PHP] Parsing... the hell of PHP
Glad to have helped (though someone else beat me to the punch with the right answer!) You'll get the hang of it -- the way I learned is to write out your tag that you'd like to use like this: a href=$urltext here/a Then go through and escape the characters that need it: a href=\$url\text here/a You can place variables into a string, but if you are using a function to work on that variable, you must concatenate it. a href=\$url\ . htmlentities($url) . /a; (needs concatenation) a href=\$url\$url/a; (no function used, no concatenation necessary) Good luck!

Re: [PHP] How to format every secound row in a database result
Or you could simply test the $color variable to see its contents, and
change it if it's what you expected:
$color = #FF;
if($color = #FF) {
$color = #00;
//output
} else {
$color = #FF;
}
There may be something inherently wrong in this approach, but it has
always worked for me. :o)

Maintain a counter as you display the returned results.
Mod the counter by 2 (rowcounter % 2), set colour according to presence /
absence of a remainder.

Hi!

The result is presented in a table, in which i'd like to present everey
secound row with a different background color.
My idea was to test if the remaining number of rows where a prime number
or
not, and by that determent if the background color should be white or som
ivory-like color to improve the readability in the result table...
Hope to hear from anyone with experience in similar matters...
TIA! Georg Herland, Norway
