[PHP] PHP newbie ... function with several returns ?
Hi ... PHP newbie here. I'm migrating from ASP/vbScript. I'd like to set up a subroutine that will change several variables at once. In VB, I can say: Private Sub Change_Variables ($variable1, $variable2) $variable1 = "Something different from it's original value" $variable2 = "I'm changed also!!" End Sub // in my code I can call it like this: $My_variable1 = "This is the original value of variable1" $My_variable2 = "This is the original value of variable2" Call Change_Variables ($My_variable1, $My_variable2) // after calling this subroutine the variables are changed: print $My_variable1 // yeilds: "Something different from it's original value" print $My_variable2 // yields: "I'm changed also!!" I try to convert this to PHP, and I'm getting stuck. I'm sure there's a kind of function that can do this. Any ideas?

[PHP] Re: How to compile Apache/PHP
Hi Todd: There is an extremely good book for what you need. It's called "PHP: Fast and easy web development" by Julie C. Meloni (PrimaTech publishers). The first three chapters cover installation of MySQL, Apache Web Server, and PHP -- in that order, and with emphasis on configuring them to all work together. It gives very easy, step-by-step instructions for both Windows and Linux environment. You can't go wrong with these instructions. You might find it at a library, or you can always find it in a book store. Good luck!!! -RD "Todd Cary" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > I am quite new to the Linux environment and do not have experience with > "make" files.

[PHP] 4.0.6 Vs. 4.1.0 ?
Hi ... I'm getting ready to do a custom install of PHP on a Pair Networks server, and I'm wondering which version I should go with. It seems like version 4.1.0 has some major changes and new features, which can sometimes create bugs in the world of software. What are your thoughts? Pros and Cons? Thanks in advance.

Re: [PHP] If/else conditional statement ... in an include file ...
I apologize for not including all of the information. I did this as an
include file, which explains why it isn't working:
< !--- beginning of myinclude.php >
< ! --- end of myinclude.php --- >
< ! beginning of testfile.php --- >
Html here that should display only if $varA == True
< ?
} // generic parser error generated here
Else {
?>
HTML that only displays if $varA != True
< ! - End of testfile.php >
In ASP this works, in PHP it doesn't ... any ideas?

[PHP] If/else conditional statement ...
Hello: In ASP I can write a Conditional statement like this: <% If $varA == True Then %> Straight HTML in here that only displays if $varA == True <% Else %> Straight HTML in here that only displays if $varA != True <% End if %> Translating this to PHP doesn't work: // error is generated here ... Is there some way to do it this way in PHP? I'd rather not create a huge variable and then echo that. Thanks in advance.

[PHP] Verisign pfpro functions in Windows environment ... newbie ...
Hi ... I posted this in the php.windows newsgroup and got no answer ... I'm trying to connect to Verisign Payflo Pro on my home development machine. The idea is that I'll do the development in a windows environment, then upload to a Linux server. I've loaded the PHP4 win32 binaries (4.0.6), but when I try to use the pfpro function (which was cut and pasted from the php.net documentation), I get the following error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pfpro_init() I've checked the PHP.net documentation and it says "These pfpro functions are only available if PHP has been compiled with the --with-pfpro[=DIR] option." Does anybody know where I can get the win32 binary compiled with that option? Is there a line I can add in the php.ini file?
