Re: [PHP] mail() usage in for loops

2003-08-14 Thread Michael Geier
1.  many providers will not accept email messages with horrendous amounts of 
BCC: entries (very spam indicative)
2.  do not use mail() to do this
3.  there are many excellent PHP mail classes (PHPClasses has a few and 
PHPMailer is an excellent alternative as well)
4.  IM(H)O, if you are going to send out large amounts of mail, dump sendmail.  
QMail is much faster at SMTP.

Factors you may need to consider:
If this is a newsletter, why not use something like ezmlm or majordomo?  
Are these individualized messages (custom inserts for names or email addresses, 
custom unsubscribes, etc.)?

Many other programmers will mention things like having a dedicated outbound-
SMTP machine, while fending the bounces and unsubscribes on another, hardware 
types (SCSI over IDE), etc.  Make sure you have thought your application needs 
through before beginning programming.

Quoting Mohanaraj [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Dear all,
 
 I have read that using mail() in a for loop to send a lot of emails (
 around 1k-10k ) emails is not advised due to the fact that it can be
 resource intensive hence or the script might take so much time that it
 ti,es out. However what if i append all the emails into the Bcc: header
 as follows and make only 1   call to mail.
 
 1. Is this better?
 2.Will it still be resource hungry?
 3.What would be the best way to handle mailing to many email addresses
 from PHP. This is for a newsletter (not SPAM) application I am working on.
 4.How does this compare against using sockets to directly speak to the
 SMTP server from a efficiency aspect?
 
 The code I am planning on using (which I got online too ) is as follows :
 
 $email = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 $subject = test;
 
 $body = This is a test.;
 
 $headers = From: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 $headers .= Reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 
 //the following willl have all the email addresses which will receive
 the email
 
 $headers .= Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 $headers .= Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 $headers .= Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 $headers .= Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 $headers .= Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
 //..and so on...
 
 $headers .= Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n;
 
 mail ($email, $subject, $body, $headers);

Re: [PHP] MySQL field data type for ISBN numbers

2003-08-10 Thread Michael Geier
functions you should consider:
   trim
   urlencode/urldecode
   rawurlencode/rawurlencode

try echo '{$_GET['isbn']}' (or $query) on the result page to see what you are 
truly getting.  I bet the browser is encoding the variable in the GET string, 
even though it doesn't appear that way to you.

Or, is the action of the FORM GET, or is it POST?
  if (!isset($_GET['isbn'])) { echo no isbn; } should verify that (if you can 
  see the data in the URI string, it is GET...if not, POST)

Quoting James Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Hi,
 
 Don't know if this is an OT or not.
 
 I have a MySQL database for books. The ISBN field is set as varchar(15) and
 I've put a test ISBN number in of 1--111-11. Can someone tell me why
 this SQL query isn't working?
 
 $ISBN = $_GET['isbn'];
 $query = SELECT * FROM book_details WHERE ISBN = '$ISBN';
 
 Since the field is a varchar, should wrapping the variable (1--111-11)
 in single quotes work?
 
 If I change the data in the table to 'abcd' and run this query
 
 $ISBN = 'abcd';
 $query = SELECT * FROM book_details WHERE ISBN = '$ISBN';
 
 It works.
 
 PHP Version 4.3.2
 mysql-4.0.14b
 
 Thanks,
 James

Re: [PHP] Grabbing info from other Sites

assuming the login isn't necessary (which it probably is), you could use 
something like Snoopy (http://sourceforge.net/projects/snoopy/) to POST/GET the 
required web page and process as required.

Quoting Ow Mun Heng [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Hi,
 
   I have this need/want to grab information from sites for my own
 usage and wondering how to do it.
 
   Here's an example.
 
 1. Log into finance.yahoo.com (assuming I need to log on)
 2. Type the list of shares I want
 3. Let Yahoo process it 
 4. Use PHP or some other scripting language to pull the data and put it into
 my database.
 
 Is this possible at all?

[PHP] weird issues w/PHP install

2003-07-02 Thread Michael Geier
I have installed PHP numerous times using the same configuration and
this is the first time I have run into this issue.

solaris 2.8 on e3500

apache 1.3.27 ( --enable-module=so --prefix=/usr/local/apache)
php 4.3.2 ( --with-apxs
--with-mysql
--with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds
--enable-ftp
--with-mcrypt=/usr/local
--with-pear
--with-zlib )

mcrypt, freetds both installed fine
installation of PHP is fine

attempt to restart apache give:

Syntax error on line 205 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server: ld.so.1:
/usr/local/apache/bin/httpd: fatal: relocation error: file

Google of this error returns some issues with zlib around the php 4.0 -
4.2 versions.

any thoughts would be extremely helpful.

Re: [PHP] AOL

2003-06-21 Thread Michael Geier
How many times do people have to respond to your same email before you get a 
clue?

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalm=105621501902618w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalm=105593686426998w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalm=105556674131637w=2

PHP is server side.  MySQL is server side.  A client side browser (in this case 
AOL), has no bearing on the output produced by PHP/MySQL.

You have been told to check your HTML output at least twice for 
missing/unsupported tags.
http://webmaster.info.aol.com/compatibility.html

Quoting rml [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 I have recently created a site that has some PHP in it.  It works fine in
 all browsers except AOL.  I can see some of the PHP page in AOL except the
 one that fetches information from MySQL database.  I also host my own server
 for this site.  Maybe this is a server setting or securtity issue.  Anyone
 see this before?
 
 Thanks.

Re: [PHP] / [Newman] When i send an email it ...

2003-06-15 Thread Michael Geier
The error is your answer.  The server is setup to relay mail for specific 
domains/users.  Evidently, the user [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not one of those 
users/domains.

If you are the administrator for this box, check your documentation for your 
specific SMTP server for setting relay for that domain.  
If you are not the admin, contact that person.

  Hi,
  
  This a SMTP server error.
  It looks like you did not add the header
  FROM: yourname [EMAIL PROTECTED]; looks like u'r SMTP
  does not allow for messages without FROM header
  as the PHP function:
  mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string
  additional_headers [, string additional_parameters]])
  shows, you can add extra headers to the mail message, so this
  is what you need to do.

the Print this Story really doesn't have anything to do with PHP, if you

if you are storing your articles in a DB, simply pull the info out and
create a mailbody for the Email this Story function.

Re: [PHP] mail function problem

2003-05-31 Thread Michael Geier
changing the value in the php.ini file is not the ideal option, as it
screws things up for all of users/scripts on the server.

you could use ini_set() for the script to change the sendmail_path var
for that script.

you could use a mail class that does alot of the grunt work for you
(Manuel Lemos normally posts some classes from his site, however I use
PHPMailer (http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net) and have never looked back.

[PHP] php/mysql group by headache

2003-04-04 Thread Michael Geier
preface: have RTM on mysql GROUP BY

I have a mysql db with a number of entries...
   table|  id  | name  | info | version
1 x   foo1
2 x   foob   2
3 x   foobar 3

my sql is similar to 
  select id,name,info from table GROUP BY name order by name,version  
   desc

in an effort to only return one result of type (x), but get the most
recent info (foobar) and version (3), however this isn't the case. 
GROUP BY returns the first info and version it comes across.

Has anyone run across this issue, or know of a solution?  Thanks.

[PHP] multi-d array frustration

2003-03-16 Thread Michael Geier
having alot of difficulties wrapping my head around this and looking for 
ideas...

SQL TABLE:
   1...n fields
auto, name, description, version, etc...

auto= unique id
name= possibly non-unique string, but with unique version
description = possibly non-unique string, based on name
version = unique to name

ie.
   1   typeXX brand1
   2   typeXx-brand2
   3   typeYy-brand1
   4   typeZz-brand1
   5   typeZZ brand2

sql = select * from table where [ conditions ] order by auto

problem:
display unique name, and associated rows based on highest version
ie. (see above)
   typeX (version 2):   x-brand
   typeY (version 1):   y-brand
   typeZ (version 2):   Z brand

through a mixture of the original sql query, multisort_array and array_unique, 
I have been able to get the unique names (which I could do with one sql query), 
however, I have not been able to get: 
   select * from table where [conditions] and greatest version for unique name

any help appreciated

Re: [PHP] Output yyyymmdd formatted date || 20030131 to FridayJanuary 31, 2003

the real question here is are you storing your dates in a file or database.

If in a database (say MySQL), you can use the native DATE_FORMAT function of 
MySQL to pull the date out in the proper format.

Otherwise, have a look at http://www.php.net/date

Quoting CF High [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Any ideas?

Re: [PHP] Re: BBCode?

2002-11-25 Thread Michael Geier
This will replace all versions (open and close) of bold, italicize and 
underline tags with brackets using preg_replace.

   $text = preg_replace(/\[(\/)?([biu])\]/,\\1\\2,$text) ;
   definition
- find [  = \[
- match IF slash exists   = (\/)?
- match one of the following  = ([biu])
- find ]  = \]

- matches get put into 'memory' (\\1 \\2) even if not found (ie. slash 
  didn't exist).
- replace with  'first match' 'second match' 

- NOTE : in PCRE regexs, brackets and forward-slashes are special
  characters and must be escaped (preceded with a back-slash) when 
  looking for them as regular characters.
   /definition

Even if you do not know PCRE yet, don't hamstring yourself looking for a 
solution that is too complicated and time-consuming.  EREG does not work very 
well on this type of problem.

Buck up, learn PCRE and use this type of solution (if you find something that 
works for you, use it...by no means does the code above cover every tag 
you 'may' want to use).

Builder.com has a pretty good regular expression checker for PERL-style regexs 
that make PCRE pretty easy.

As this is the industry I am in, maybe I can offer a few hints/suggestions to 
start you on your way:

start with the database
  - is your user table built (how much information about the user do you need) ?
  - are you validating the incoming email address (sending an email to confirm
entry) ?
  - are you using a seperate table for storing their selection information ?
- yes, are you storing transactions (logging changes) ?
- no, what happens if they want more than one team ?
  - do you have your rules for your game planned out (deadlines, team size, 
salary cap) ?
  - do you have a support methodology prepared ?

I can answer some generalized questions about methodology of the game (so as 
not to violate my employment agreement), and some general programming issues 
that you may have.

ps. Just to give you an idea, we maintain a staff of programmers, support 
commisioners and system administrators (about 35 people), not to mention 
accounting, advertising and graphic development, to run about 40-50 games a 
year, including games for USA Today, Excite/iWon and Tops.  This development 
has been over 10 years going.  What I am trying to get at is, are you trying to 
make a friendly 'office league' type interface for your friends, or are you 
trying to make something alot bigger?  Be prepared for everything you could 
potentially need for a large operation (did I mention legal department?).

 you 
 may be able to see where the pieces fit together and then you can start

 Hello Dave,
 The php mail function is still not working. I've changed the coding
 a little
 bit to help you debug it. The code on the page is now:
 
 ?php
 mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'An email to two people',
 'This is
 a test');
 ?
 
 As you can see, it will send an email to both you and me.
 
 To test the page you can go to community updates or
 sellwithpictures. The
 two URLs are:
 
 http://www.sellwithpictures.com/php/emailtest.html
 
 and
 
 http://www.communityupdates.com/php/emailtest.html
 
 Please email me when you have it working.
 Thanks for your effort.
 
 Apart from being a neat thing for a page to be able to do, I'm
 doing a quote
 for a large site where they require emails to be sent out by the
 site when
 someone fills out a form, so we need to have this figured out.
 
 Thanks again,
 
 bob

RE: [PHP] Re: Getting PHP to submit a form to google

2002-08-16 Thread Michael Geier

a more OO approach might be to use the Snoopy PHP class
(http://snoopy.sourceforge.net)

This will allow you to do GET/POST method requests on
URLS with query variables, ie:

POST
$snoopy = new Snoopy;
$submit_vars[q] = [ form variables ];
$submit_url   = http://www.google.com/search;;

$snoopy-submit($submit_url,$submit_vars);
$result = $snoopy-results;

GET
$snoopy = new Snoopy;
$submit_url   = http://www.google.com/search?q=;.[ form variables ];

$snoopy-fetch($submit_url);
  $result = $snoopy-results;   

Then simply parse through $result;

 Subject: [PHP] [Followup] Exploding Zip Codes! (Using PHP's explode
 function)


 Final question on this (I hope).

 I have the code together now to put it all the zip codes into and
 array--but
 now I need to add those zip codes to a sql statement for the WHERE clause.
 Example:

 SELECT * FROM [table]
 WHERE zip=[all the darn zips listed here]

 (or something like that)

 How would I set it to loop all the zip codes into this statement? I'm not
 worried about the SQL syntax, I can figure that out without a problem, but
 the php code is the question. This is in MySQL btw, and I have looked
 through the docs there and at php for this, but need some help
 from all you
 guru's out there.

 Thanks for the help!

 (Previous message here)

  I have a huge block of zip codes I need to seperate into their
 constituent
  parts for a query of a database. The block looks like this (in part):
 
  |  36310  ABBEVILLE  |
  |  35440  ABERNANT  |
  |  35005  ADAMSVILLE  |
  |  35540  ADDISON  |
  |  35006  ADGER  |
  |  35441  AKRON  |
 
  I need to use eplode (probably) to seperate this all out into
 two arrays,
  one of codes, the other of names--presumably named $zips[] and $cities[]
  with the rest of the data dumped.
 
  I have gone and looked at the various functions docs at
 php.net, but they
  haven't really helped to answer my question as much as I would like. Any
  information is appreciated.

RE: [PHP] Re: Protect PHP coding

2002-08-03 Thread Michael Geier

Acer,

Did you ever consider the fact that ASP, JSP and CF jobs are 
advertised more because their developers actually advertise?  When 
was the last time you saw a commerical on TV for PHP?  And yet, due 
to PHP's extensive development and interoperability, it is one of the 
highest installed packages on web servers?

PHB's see the word 'FREE' and think 'bd' (obvious sheep 
reference) because that is what the Gates' and Ellison's have taught 
them to believe.  Companies like MS and Oracle advertise during the 
Super Bowl and purchase news sites to tell you what they think you 
should know.  

Do they make a superior product because they advertise?  Or just one 
that has a prettier ribbon on it?  Blaming the PHP developers 
(commercial and otherwise) because you cannot get a job as a PHP 
developer is like blaming Schwinn because you can't get a job as a 
bike messenger.

 personally
  refuse to work on a PHP encoder for this reason.  Imagine if I

  I know plenty of people disagree with this view, but there you

 can't help but get pissed about it.  I did not have the time to do 
 these upgrades, but now I have to make time.

php.ini: register_globals = on;

this would have allowed you to upgrade and keep your projects running 
until you converted them to $_ arrays.

And I think you seem to be taking things a little to personally.  

...hassles the php group is putting YOU through?

Let's see...does Andi, Zeev and Rasmus get paid to produce new 
versions of PHP?  Do you pay licensing fees for the product?  Maybe 
if there were fees, the Holy Trinity (grin) could create an update 
app that made your life easier for you.

The night CERT released the security alert, I upgraded 23 servers in

are not going to get alot of sympathy from the 'group'.

 Subject: Re: [PHP] Parse an email message for content


 Ed,

 Thanks for the reply.  Actually, I have the module version and the cgi
 version of PHP running on my server.  I have another script that I run
 daily, but that is a different beast with my own content.  Also, I know
 about egrep and preg_egrep, great functions.  However, I am looking for an
 idea on how to actually read the email files.

 I have been reading about fread for reading the file and then I have
 considered doing an fseek to start reading where the email headers stop,
 and then explodeing the contents of the file separated by the =
 delimiter that comes in the message.  However, I do not know
 where to start.
 Any pointers?

 Thanks,
 Jonathan Duncan

 at
  a certain time that reads the mail file that contains the daily email

  Can anyone point me in the correct direction on how I can learn

  Thank you very much,

[PHP] gd project question

2002-05-31 Thread Michael Geier

I have the following issue:

I am making a gas guage based on a percentage.
ie.  
- a 180 degree arc is created
- the range will be 0 to n (undetermined ammount)
- there will be x number of entries
- the needle will pount to a a percentage 
  for (int)floor((x / n) * 100)

The issue is, I have the starting pt for the needle (imagefilledarc 
needs the center of the 'circle' as the starting pt, which is where 
the needle will start too), but how would I get the x|y coordinates 
for the end of the needle based on a perentage of a half-circle 
(180 degree arc)?

Appreciate any clues or ideas.

RE: [PHP] gd project question

2002-05-31 Thread Michael Geier

Did I mention I hate math [grin]...
ok...so here we go so far...

I am passing a variable diameter of the arc ($d),
the total number of widgets possible ($n),
and the number of current widgets ($x)

so let's say $d = 100
 $n = 100
 $x = 50

 $perc = $x / $n (0.50 or 50 %)

 degree conversion = # * (180/M_PI)

 asin($perc) converted to degrees = 30
 acos($perc) converted to degrees = 60

my arc runs from 180 deg. to 360/0 degree, or left to right, pointing
upwards (upside down U).
i guess I am not getting my head around the numbers...is there anywhere on
the net that has a good thorough description about a process like this?

Thx.
mike

 Good day,

 Wow, a high school math question.

 You should use asin() and acos() of the angle to get the y and x
 differentials, respectively.  Multiply the result by the size of
 the needle.

 This assumes that your guage is oriented horizontally, and the
 needle sweeps
 from right to left, pointing upwards.  Adjust the sign or switch the
 functions around if your gauge is different.

 Note that the functions operate in radians (2*pi radians == 360 degrees).

Re: [PHP] Send html email

2002-05-11 Thread Michael Geier

While I understand the necessity in not answering every question that a newbie 
may post, a more pleasant approach would have been:

the following is documented at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php; 
or 
see the Content-Type: header for instructions on how to do this.  

Do you think someone who won't read the docs, or search the archives, prior to 
the question understands what RTFM means?

My recommendation: http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net
While this is not using the mail() function, it is a more robust, more 
functional method of sending mail, including multi-part, SMTP-Auth, 
attachments, etc, that works with a variety of MTAs including Sendmail, Qmail, 
and direct SMTP transport.

[PHP] question with sockets and XML

2002-05-06 Thread Michael Geier

Hi all,

I have to do the following:
open a socket to an external server
authenticate on that server
begin retrieving articles and write to local files

I am able to connect the server via Net/Sockets.php and authenticate.

Now the tricky part...the data is fed via an XML format...

I would like to say start reading lines starting with tag until line
containing /tag
then, take that information and write it to a file.

The problem is that the articles are not fixed length.
Any help appreciated.

Enclose the value in quotes, like so:

input type=text name=name value=?echo $name;?

The browser can't know that Steven Walker is all one string unless it is
quoted. It thinks the 2nd part of the name after the space is the next
attribute, unless it is quoted, i.e., it is seeing

value=Steven Walker

 Hi,
 
 I'm having trouble setting the value of form elements using variable 
 values. For example:
 
 ?$name = Steven Walker?
 form name=form1 method=post action=infocollect.php
   input type=text name=name value=?echo $name;?
 /form
 
 In the browser, the name field is only filled with Steven, 
 and drops 
 off everything after the space. If I echo $name outside of 
 the form it 
 prints fine.

Everytime that I want to send email using a PHP script from my server, it
automatically appends the domain name of my server to the From: line.

else

$mailheaders .= From: XYZ company\n;
$mailheaders .= Reply-To: $email\r\n;

$remarks .= brbr$items;

}
}

As you can see from the example above , I use XYZ company , but in the
email that I receive it comes out as XYZ [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It automatically appended the domain name to the end of it.

How can I avoid this?

Use include files to pass your authentication information.

auth.php:

put auth.php in your home directory with you as owner and apache group id

'nobody').

Re: [PHP] A primary practicall for the pros- the easiest way to sort files in a directory by name or date.?

2001-12-15 Thread Michael Geier

depends on how elegant you want:

passthru(ls -l | awk '{print $9}' );//sort by name ascending
passthru(ls -lt | awk '{print $9}' );   //sort by modification time
descending

add -r to the ls command to reverse the order of either sort
instead of using passthru, you could use exec and pipe the information to
arrays.

 Hello friends,
 Here's the question that's bugging me, explanations are under the

 How do you

 string comparison?
 other ideas?

 I, must confess that i have little experience with PHP-programming-
 the wonderful implementation of php-MySQL and ZEND makes it too easy

 As far as i know, there is no title sorting in php, as opposed to

Re: [PHP] Sending fax with php, is it possible?

2001-11-29 Thread Michael Geier

I have previously done this by creating either a text or PDF document with
PHP and then passing it off to HylaFAX.

The only problems I was having was that I would create a legal size PDF. 
When I sent it through HylaFAX, the destination fax machine would not
scale the PDF to various size paper, only cut off portions.  I suspect
however that the problem was related to a HylaFAX configuration, and not
PHP.

If you wish to use graphics in your fax, look at:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php

Otherwise, just create a plain text fax page from the form data  and send
it to HylaFAX.

HylaFAX homepage:
http://www.hylafax.org

NOTE: This is a UNIX-based solution.

The real question is why?  What is the purpose of piping the email to a
PHP script?

Are you trying to insert emails into a database?
Are you trying to deal with emails automatically based on subject?
Are you trying to deal with emails from a specific source?

The answers to these questions will change how a PHP script deals with the
input.

Also, you are piping the information to php://stdin and using fgetc() to
grab the data, correct?

your MTA is setting the envelope, not your script.

if you are using sendmail, look at the -f flag in the man 
sendmail page.  then modify your php.ini file.  Or possibly 
even set the variable (sendmail_path) inside of your script 
to include the -f flag.

rather than be rude about it, try reading the whole message and 
then looking through the PHP documentation.


http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php
===
ini_set
(PHP 4 = 4.0RC1)

ini_set -- Set the value of a configuration option
Description

string ini_set (string varname, string newvalue)


Sets the value of the given configuration option. Returns the 
old value on success, FALSE on failure. The configuration option 
will keep this new value during the script's execution, and will 
be restored at the script's ending. 

Not all the available options can be changed using ini_set(). 
Below is a table with a list of all PHP options (as of PHP 
4.0.5-dev), indicating which ones can be changed/set and at what 
level.

[PHP] note to PHP developers

2001-07-17 Thread Michael Geier, CDM Systems Admin

I have noticed on the list over the past two months, an increasing number of
problems with the mail() function.

Mostly, people having this problem don't have sendmail installed.  It would
seem that PHP's mail() function was written around sendmail.  Is there a way
to resolve this, with either configuration flags or by re-writing the mail()
function install to look for alternative MTAs???

Just thought I would point it out.

My solution:

- OS RH 7.1 w/Sendmail install
- installed PHP 4.x
- removed Sendmail
- installed Qmail
- changed php.ini path - qmail path

[PHP] WTF: mail() is not supported in this PHP build ???

2001-05-15 Thread Michael Geier

I have never seen this problem (and this isn't my first install)...

I am using:

 RedHat 7.1
 php4.0.4pl1
 qmail 1.03

I thought the problem was the fact that I didn't have sendmail installed at
all
(had the qmail sendmail wrapper in place though; ln -s
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/[lib|sbin]/sendmail )...
so I installed sendmail, recompiled php, still no luck...

anyone have any ideas?  I checked the archives and someone posted a similar
question about this yesterday, but no response yet.

[PHP] question about broadcast application

My bosses came to me and asked me to spec out a broadcast mailer (spam box)
that clients could:

- log into
- choose a pre-approved list (clients could have multiple lists)
- choose a stored email
- send sample
- send broadcast

I know that Qmail and EzMLM are the products to use, but does anyone have
any tips or suggestions, or see any possible problems with this (besides the
obvious UCE issue)??  Commercial/Open Source application suggestions
appreciated.

RE: [PHP] Sending pretty email

2001-03-11 Thread Michael Geier

Although I will probably getting tarred and feathered for this,

I send out at least a million (multiple emails for lists around the 200
thousand customer mark) emails a week, mostly html.
When I wrote the software interface (in PHP) to do so, I mentioned to my
bosses that many people would not be able to read these HTML emails (ie.
AOL, Eudora, Lotus 5.0, and my beloved pine).  This deterred them naught,
cuz they wanted to send banners in the email.  Since email with banners
generated more revenue than without (however little money that may be), I
was overruled.

Hence, I read up on multi-part email.  This can be done, and I used Richard
Heyes' html-mime email class to do it.  The class was based on the SMTP
class that can be found on Manuel Lemos' PHPClasses site
(http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com), along with the SMTP class.

I now have the ability to send straight HTML, straight TEXT, or combo emails
that are interpreted correctly by all email clients (including AOL clients).
And, since I don't use the mail() function, it typically runs about 150%
faster (mail() puts the messages in the mail queue, but the SMTP class
writes directly to port 25 of the mail server).  All this and it runs on a
linux system that grabs the email addresses out of a M$ SQL 7 database.  The
database allows the customers the ability to opt-out of certain emails.

So don't refrain from doing it because some people say it shouldn't be done
for one reason or another.  Simply fix those reasons so they don't know any
different.

Richard -

For me you are pointing out one of the dilemmas I face on a daily basis
that I call the "fin dilemma".  I coined this expression from the era
when Detroit put fins on the cars.  These did not make the car perfrom
better; they only appealed to need to get a car with fins because the
neighbor had one.

Yet I earn my living by writing software for clients and when I suggest
that they use the KISS principle, they tell me that I am not up with the
times.  There is a very interesting book that I came across at a
friend's home addressing effective Web design.  Though I cannot remember
the authors name, he has done many of the "big name" magazine covers as
well as some big name Web sites and he believes in simplicity.  Quite a
deilemma!!!

RE: [PHP] Passing values from ASP to PHP

2001-03-01 Thread Michael Geier

I'm no ASP guru (never touched it actually), but...it seems as if this will
add an extra "" on the end of the url.

myscript.php?one=bluetwo=redthree=yellow
  ^

Hi,

To enumerate the key/value in ASP from the form you'd do this
%

dim element
dim objForm
dim strURL

'/* We're creating an object so that it won't matter which
' * HTTP method the previous form uses.
' */
If LCase(Server.Request("HTTP_METHOD")) = "post" Then
Set objForm = Request.Form
Else
Set objForm = Request.QueryString
End If

strURL =  "myscript.php?"

'/* Now step through the form
For each element in objForm
'/* Key Name is in the "element" var
   ' * Value of the key is in the objForm(element)
' * Now build the Redirect string
' */
strURL = strURL  Server.URLEncode(element)  "="
Server.URLEncode(objForm(element))  ""
Next

'/* Now redirect
Response.Redirect(strURL)

%

That should do it.

  I've been given a project that I want to use PHP with, but
  unfortunately there are unchangable hard-coded values that point clients
to an ASP
  script residing on our server. Here's what I want to do, and I don't
  really know how to do it:
 
  I want to pass all the key/value pairs that are passed to the
  ASP script
  to a PHP script. I can get values with Request.Form("key_name"), but
  that takes hard-coding the name of the key.
 
  So if the following is passed to the ASP script:
  one=bluetwo=redthree=yellow
 
  Then I would want to redirect to
  myscript.php?one=bluetwo=redthree=yellow
 
  How do I go about walking through all the key/values that
  have been passed
  in ASP? I really don't want to have to learn this ugly language..

Why not just create a table that will resize to any resolution?

Because I am using different sized images for the different resolutions as 
well as other page thingys.

And I need the script for other things too.

So can anyone help?

[PHP] SNMP question

2001-02-19 Thread Michael Geier

I am attempting to compile PHP with Net-SNMP package from Sourceforge
(ucd-snmp-4.2.i386.rh6.2.tar.gz).
configure and make/make install work fine.

starting apache returns:
Cannot load /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server:
libsnmp-0.4.2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

What directory is it trying to load from, or what environment variable is it
referring to?  The file does exist under /usr/local/lib.

Redhat 6.2
Apache 1.3.17
PHP 4.0.4pl1
--with-esoob
--enable-ftp
--with-xml
--with-apxs
--enable-track-vars
--enable-force-cgi-redirect
--with-mysql

Thanks.

[PHP] trouble with odbc

2001-02-01 Thread Michael Geier

I am running php4.04pl1 on RedHat6.2 with --esoob (EasySoft) connecting to
MSSQL 7.0 on WinNT 4.
The connection to this db works from another program on same machine.

?
$connection = odbc_connect("dsn","user","password") or die ('could not
connect to db');
$query = "SELECT * FROM customer WHERE email LIKE 'user@%'";
$result = odbc_exec($connection,$query) or die('could not execute query');
$count = odbc_num_rows($result);
echo $count;
?

$count is returning -1.

When running SQL Server Enterprise Mgr. on NT box, this query reurns 3 dummy
records.  Does anyone see the error?  All help appreciated.
