[PHP] Does this seem wrong to anyone else?
I am debugging someone else¹s code, and this is what they have :
1055function mkdir_recursive($pathname, $mode)
1056{
1057is_dir(dirname($pathname)) ||
mkdir_recursive(dirname($pathname), $mode);
1058return is_dir($pathname) || @mkdir($pathname, $mode);
1059}
The part that bothers me is that mkdir_recursive calls itself from within
itself.
I am not an expert on this particular type of thing, and maybe that is
allowed, but it seems wrong to me, and this error is being generated:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mkdir_recursive() in x.php on

Nope, but I can guess what its about.
Can there be a possible solution. As the system which I am developing

There are probably multiple solutions. AFAIK time is a 32 bit signed
int, making it unsigned would add like 100 years onto your app.
This might effect my application in the future
If your app survives that long! Why not just maintain it and when times
change, your app changes? :)
Seriously, this is really not a big deal!
true-that ;)
anyway, the DateTime class is implemented as a 64-bit unsigned (i think)
value. so if you use it you should be good to go.

This would be better

$curPort = $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'];
$pageTo = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
if($curPort == 80) {

Actually, the problem isn't the query... the query works fine. What I
want is for if it doesn't work, I want it to tell the user that it
didn't work.
Right now I'm just blindly accepting that the insert succeeded, and I
want to get away from that! :)
Does that explain it a little better?
If you are simply wanting to do a check on whether the insert was successful
or not, then grab the id form the insert and check to see if it is there...
$success = mysql_insert_id();
If(!$success){
echo no joy.. Insert failed.;
}
Because mysql_insert_id() acts on the last performed query, be sure to call
mysql_insert_id() immediately after the query that generates the value.

We know that there appear to be certain laws in physics, would they not have applied to that initial state in a non random manner?

Re: [PHP] How to handle rows of checkboxes upon form submit?
You will be passing the checkboxes as arrays ... So you will need to access them that way on the next page Your post field would look something like (off the top of my head, so don't quote me): Array ( [selected_fid] = [0] = apples [1] = oranges [2] = bananas ) This assumes that the user selected all the results. If for instances they did not (say they checked apples and bananas), then your post array would look like : Array ( [selected_fid] = [0] = apples [1] = bananas ) The array will automatically increment starting at zero. However, you can prefill the array with specific information, in case you need to know which boxes where checked and which were not... INPUT TYPE=checkbox ID=checkbox_row_6 NAME=selected_fid[1] VALUE=apples There is no reason to do this with hardcode values, but if you were accessing information from a database, and dynamically creating a series of checkboxes, then it would be more useful to preload the array with the id from the database rather then let it auto increment. Hope you find this useful. I would suggest for your reading enjoyment : http://php.net/array http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php // specifically the section on $_POST -- Stephen Johnson c | eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com continuing the struggle against bad code http://www.thumbnailresume.com -- From: Rob Gould [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2007 22:12:22 -0800 To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] How to handle rows of checkboxes upon form submit? Let's say I have a PHP script which lists a series of objects for sale at a yard sale, each with a checkbox to the left of the name of the item. If I wanted to have a submit button, and run through the list of items that were checked and act on them, how would I do that? To gain some knowledge, I went into phpMyAdmin and looked at their checkboxes, and I see their code: input type=checkbox id=checkbox_row_6 value=apples name=selected_fld[] input type=checkbox id=checkbox_row_7 value=oranges name=selected_fld[] input type=checkbox id=checkbox_row_8 value=bananas name=selected_fld[] So it looks like they do something with name=select_fld[], which must be part of the secret to making this work.

For people who actually want to be a part of this mailing list community, it would be a great get-acquainted README-style message that could help prevent some flames. The problem here is that a large portion of users on this list are not active readers, they join to get an answer to their question and then only reappear for their next problem. They are not contributors and don't plan to be, therefore they will likely ignore any and all welcome messages and will only pay attention to answers to their questions ... It may be better for the more long term expert users who are the ones providing the solutions to identify that in the response they send [SOLUTION], rather then hoping the requestor is going to identify the solution [SOLVED]. In most cases, the solution is given right away, and then there is a 2 or 3 day back and forth while the user bangs his head against the wall arguing about whether that solution will work, while the rest of the community gets frustrated with him. In a couple of other email groups I am on , when we are providing the answer the email generally gets formatted like : Problem : (initial question ) Solution : (solution) This has been very helpful, as it also gives reference point for the other users to send the OP back to when they are not getting it..

mysql_query($q) or die(mysql_error());

Increment the $var with the {number} that you are using.
In the following PHP page

$var = $_POST['item'];
$var would then be an array accessed the same way you would access it

Does that make sense.?

Re: [PHP] Error #1136
Can you include the SQL statement that is creating the error?
The error basically means you are trying to put more data into the dB then
you have data cells for.
For instance :
Good sql statement:
$sql = insert into table (name, address, city, state, zip) VALUES ('$name',
'$address', '$city', '$state', '$zip');
Bad SQL statement :
$sql = insert into table (name, address, city, state, zip) VALUES
('$name', '$address', '$city', '$state', '$zip', '$phone');
The addition of the phone variable would create an error since there is no
column to hold that data.

Re: [PHP] Concept ional question
Personally I am an organization freak so I tend to do the first option - store the images in individual folders, generally using the unique username to create the folder itself.

Re: [PHP] Conceptional question
Any rough estimates what number of images would be too much? and does anyone think i should make folders for each user? Each user is limited to max 3mb of pics though... Thanks, Ryan Personally I believe it is doubtful that you would ever reach the limit unless you where going to be getting some serious traffic. Ultimately, though, I think it is sound judgment to make separate folders just for your own sanity. Think about file storage on your own machine sitting on your desk. Do you take all your pictures and dump them into one folder or do they contain some sort of organization. Then look at your processes regarding how you access your files -- are you storing the path in your dB ? Or do you read through the directory looking for the file? If it is the latter then your application will suffer performance wise searching a mass of files. I have also been leery of overwriting another users files. I realize that if you use a unique identifier on the file itself you prevent this, but mistakes can be made, and I have always felt more comfortable sending the user to his own directory where he can do as he likes ?php /* Stephen Johnson c | eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] 562.924.4454 (office) 562.924.4075 (fax) continuing the struggle against bad code */ ? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

This example works for any number of middle names (including zero) and any number of white spaces between words. You can probably get this more elegant, but this is one idea. Steve In Portgal we have big names. My complete name, for instance, is Mário Augusto Machado dos Reis Gamito. Mário is the Christian name and Gamito - the last one - is always the last name of the father. I have a form where i want to let my users insert their full big name like mine, but i want to shorten them just to the first and the last. For example, if i fill the form with Mário Augusto Machado dos Reis Gamito, i want to change this string to only Mário Gamito. The total number of names is not fix. Could be 3, 4, 5, 6,... My son name is Manuel Ramos Gamito. Only 3 names. Should be changed to Manuel Gamito, also. I've looked at the strings functions in the manual, made a lot of experiences, but couldn't get there :( Does anyone knows how to do this ? Any help would be apreciated.

Re: [PHP] using lists in php and sending
First off - do you have global variables turned on? If not then you need to
collect the data from the $_POST variable.
Also - when you use a multiple select form field the values come across in
an array.
So you would need to access the data using something like this:
$i=0;
while($rooms[$i]) {
$room_mail .= $rooms[$i];
}
Then in your mail section replace $rooms with $room_mail.

Re: [PHP] Re: A general question
Your right -- it is wrong. I cut and pasted that directly from a File Sharing app I wrote for our company intranet. I wrote that script a very long time ago (1999 or 2000). I think that, originally, the first one didn't work and I added the second. I forgot to remove it, maybe I though it was a good comment tag. That whole file sharing systems was written in the w hours of the morning, so I should probably go through and alter the code.

Re: [PHP] Connecting to a AS/400?
According to Larry Hotchkiss on Jan 31,2001 Quote Its my understanding that you use the odbc functions to access db/2 400. I also recall reading that the db2/400 functionality is true db2 functionality and does not use the generic odbc layer even though it is grouped in. Apparently its smart enough to know. Depending on where you got your windows ver of php, you should just be able to uncomment the line in your php.ini so it can use odbc and make sure the extension path is set correctly. end Quote -- ?php /* Stephen Johnson c | eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] 562.924.4454 (office) 562.924.4075 (fax) continuing the struggle against bad code */ ?

Re: [PHP] [HAB] PHP or ASP.Net
I find it humorous that these types of debates keep coming back up -- no matter what the topic, the IT world can not seem to agree on anything. OS wars - Browser wars - coding languages. It all gets very tiring. Bottom line - go with what you like and with what can get the job done. Myself personally, I have never found something that I could not do in PHP. However, that being said, a lot of companies simply do not want to leave off the Microsoft model. So if you want to work for those companies you will need to know ASP. In the end, it is all about marketability. You want to be able to put yourself in a position where are your needed by a company -- best way to do that -- learn both. Just my 2 cents. ?php /* Stephen Johnson c|eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] 562.924.4454 (office) 562.924.4075 (fax) continuing the struggle against bad code */ ?

Re: [PHP] mysql query
Now I am assuming that 4 and 6 would not always be the next article ID -
otherwise you could just increment your id accordingly.
If you wanted to do that without running multiple queries, this is who I
might do it, rather sloppy, but I think it would work.
$idGet= $_GET['id'];
$sql = select id, title from articles;
$db-query($sql);
$i=0;
while($db-getRow()) {
$id[$i] = $db-row['id'];
$title[$i] = $db-row['title'];
$i++;
if($id[$i] == $idGet) {
$j = $I;
}
}
$prev = $j-1;
$next = $j+1;
previous $title[$prev ]
next $title[$next]

Subject: [PHP] mysql query
Hello,
im working on an article system and looking to avoid running three queries.
example, i have this query:
SELECT id,title FROM articles WHERE id=$_GET[id]
now say $_GET[id] = 5
I would like to get the previous id 4 and the next id 6 (if there is one)
so i can do something like:
Previous Article [Title]
Next Article [Ttitle]
i would assume this is impossible without running mulitple queries? just
thought i'd ask in case i am wrong. i am using mysql 4x
thanks
