[PHP] Session Variables
When does a session variable become available? Immediately after the session_register command or after the script ends? And if the commands are as follows: session_start(); session_register(hello); $hello=3; will the session variable $hello be set to 3 or do I have to add another session_register() call after changing the value?

Maybe the PHP's configuration file... Or some command is needed first

Re: [PHP] Session Variables
so the session variable is set only when the script ends? I thought you
indicated that they were set immediately...
Thanks for the quick reply,

The session variable values get stored to the session file (or database,
or
wherever your configuration is set to store them) at the end of script 1.
When session_start() is called in script 2, those values get restored from
the session file. So, your results are expected: PHP needs to store the
session values from script 1 before they can be retrieved by script 2.

Subject: Re: [PHP] Session Variables
Funnily - doesn't work for me. Here's what I got:
Script #1
#!/usr/local/bin/php
?php
session_start();
if (!isset($count)) { echo Setting count;
session_register(count); }
else echo $count;
$count++;
sleep(60);
?
Script #2
#!/usr/local/bin/php
?php
session_start();
echo $count;
?
If I start script#1 (and it sleep()s), wait 10 seconds, then
launch script
#2 in a separate browser window, script #2 returns empty.
However once the
sleep() is completed and I refresh the window with script #2,
the output is
okay (1).
Why does this happen?

Immediately after it is assigned.
And if the commands are as follows:
session_start();
session_register(hello);
$hello=3;
will the session variable $hello be set to 3 or do I have to
add another
session_register() call after changing the value?
No additional calls are needed. You will need to do
session_start() on the
next page if you want to access $hello there.

[PHP] mailing list
Hello people, I came with this problem to the group a while back, got some suggestions, and have been working on them since then. I know post the query again from a new perspective I have a mysql database, which contains a lot of email addresses and various other fields. My PHP code generates a list of email addresses based on certain criteria, and I have to send a fixed text body to each of these email addresses. This is my mailing list server. The idea was to be able to send out multiple mailing lists using the same database The mail is sent using fsockopen and SMTP commands, I loop over each email address: The problem was the users were getting multiple copies of the email. After much frustration, I found that what was happening was that the script would start sending email (this process would take many minutes). However before this script finished, another copy of the same script started, and this new copy was sending emails to the same users again. The original script continued. Result: duplicate emails I tried setting the script timeout to a large value, but no effect. I have managed to catch (and stop) the execution of the second copy, and hence prevent duplicate mails, but I have no idea _why_ this copy was being spawned... Can anybody help me out here? I would really appreaciate any help!

Plutarck [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 9c2gdi$170$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:9c2gdi$170$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... First of all, I believe since you are using javascript on your button you shouldn't use type=submit. Change it to type=button, which means it will have no effect for browsers that don't have javascript enabled when clicked. That could be an error, for one. But then again, it might not. I had a similar requirement - to run a javascript when a form is submitted. the best way to do this was to remove the 'onClick' event from the submit button and instead make an 'onSubmit' event on the form but remember that onSubmit must return true is the form is to be submitted, false if the form is NOT to be submitted. It must return. It might cause it to be submitted to one page and opened on another, which very well may be what you want to happen. However it might be that the Another good way to do that is to add a TARGET=_blank option to the FORM tag. Or you can add a TARGET=windowname option, where windowname is a window which your onSubmit code opened.

print input type = submit value = 'Submit' ;
and, the var name is $var_hello

solution. Here's the script:

[PHP] newbie question: duplicate emails
Hello people, I am having a peculiar problem with my mailing list and hope you can help me out. I have a mySQL database with a table of email addresses for the mailing lists. I have many lists, and my (PHP) code runs various queries on this table to generate lists of email addresses to which the mail has to be sent. The email body is combined with this generated list, and then I use mail() to send this message out to each recipient. I also add on a few headers such as From:, Errors-To, Reply-To and Return-Path to the message. Now the problem is that every recipient of my mail is getting two copies of the message. I am positive that it's not my code which is causing the problem, the script runs once and terminates. I've also tried to send mail by opening a socket connection to port 25 on the mail machine and sending SMTP commands, but still the result is the same. And there is no SMTP error generated.

Re: [PHP] newbie question: duplicate emails
Yes, that is a sound approach. However I've checked it again, and again, and again, and nothing pops up. It would be easier if I had an error generated. I'll try to get my hands on the SMTP logs, will talk to the server admin about that. My code is sending data to the SMTP socket and monitoring responses for the SMTP server, and no error there. Here is how it goes HELO xxx MAIL FROM: (me) RCPT TO: (recipient 1) DATA (body) . RSET MAIL FROM: (me) RCPT TO: (recipient 2) DATA (body) . (and so on...) QUIT I've noticed that the error shows up when the server load is high: for e.g. when I am sending out emails to the lists, generally the first list goes through without a problem (i.e. one email per person). But when it moves on to the second list, it starts sending two copies. But sometimes the second list goes okay, and the third generates duplicates.
