[PHP] gettext online editor?
hello, for translating our web applications, we use to create an XML file with the labels; one label for each entry; one file for each language. This let us: 1. create one file (in french) and let someone do the translations 2. provide the 'key users' (admins) of the application a php page that can be used to edit/change these translations 3. include the xml files into our cvs so that changes are managed 4. provide a new language to the application simply by adding the corresponding file if needed, we can split the file on a functional basis to reduce the amount of data to be loaded. Most of the time however, we simply have some form labels, feedback messages, menu items : less than 50 labels per page. So this works very well. Recently a collegue showed us gettext. As it seems very powerful, the main disadvantage I can see is that translations files are not directly editable. The admin users cannot edit the files and correct/change the translations. Moreover, we work mainly on windows and I'd rather minimize the number of softwares needed by the developers to do their work (php editor, oci, mysql, mssql clients, cvs, svn, firefox, moz, ie, uml editor, ... so many already!) So my question is: do you know if there is any way of editing the gettext translation files from a http page? I mean, without the need to execute a 'compile' (or whatever) action on the webserver. do you have any comment on translating the applications? of course gettext seems powerful, with caching an so on. But I really believe the new SimpleXML can load a translation file very quickly, and php offers enough functionalities to do cache of the labels in the current language... thank you Vincent -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] shell_exec, batch files, and IIS on Windows
hi, maybe you can try this: in the IIS properties, you can define the user running your IIS service. Ususally this is IUSR_xxx, but you can set a administrator user (see directory Security/ anonymous user) try to put your win login (prefixed with your domain\ and give your password. If you can execute your cmd and batch file, then you can be sure that the problem if an authorisation problem. Afterward, re-enter the IUSR_xx user as the anonymous user, because running as administrator is rather dangerous!! Also, try the 'Integrated windows Authentication', if this is checked, the anaonymous will NOY be used, but your own login will be used instead. As an example, if the Use integrated authentication is active, try a phpinfo() and you should find your own windows login as AUTH_USER (or others, don't remember). (if you have a login prompt, you can avoid it from the IE setting) Also, have a look at the event viewer and at the IIS log file. Maybe you will see the error reported by IIS...

Subject: [PHP] $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] in a included file
A project that I work on has a index.php that includes other files
depending on certain requirements.
so index.php includes a.php;
in a.php if you echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] it echos index.php and I
understand why it does this.
But, I want echo the file name of a.php from a.php and I dont want to
add a $filename='a.php'; at the top of a.php, although I have thought of
using subversion and a find and replace to insert $filename=$Id$; at
the top of all the files.
Does anyone know know of another way I can get a included files filename?
Sorry if I have posted this question in the past, its been a while since
I last thought of this problem.
Regards,
Clive.

RE: [PHP] Question regarding include() and symlinks to directories
hello, if I can still contribute to this topic, I suggest you never use simlinks. We experienced very bad maintenance problems at a customer : when copying new files through FTP, the simlinks were often erased or overwriten. And this occured on every upgrade of the scripts. This would not occur with a simple and stable include_path setting. Moreover, one can set the include_path dircetly from PHP, allowing for example 2 applications to define their own include_path. Finaly, simlinks are not available on win32 platforms. So, the include_path should be more stable (considering FTP) and more flexible than simlinks.

Hosting of my site is at http://www.groep6049.ksjnet.be

I have forwarded www.ksachiropoelkapelle.be
http://www.ksachiropoelkapelle.be/ towards
http://www.groep6049.ksjnet.be/index.php
I use cloaked forwarding (so ksachiropoelkapelle stays in the address bar)
Now people can log in on that site:
$sql=select * from users where user_firstname='$firstname' and
user_password='$password';
$result=mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($count0) {
$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);
$userid=$row[user_id];
$gebruikersnaam=$row[user_firstname];
//set the session variables
$_SESSION['userid']=$userid;
$_SESSION['gebruikersnaam']=$gebruikersnaam;

}
The problem is:
When I surf directly to http://www.ksachiropoelkapelle.be
http://www.ksachiropoelkapelle.be/ and try to login nothing happens. The
script is executed successfully but it does not seem to recognize the
$_SESSION to show that I'm logged in.
When I surf to http://www.groep6049.ksjnet.be/index.php and try to login it
works perfectly.
Is it possible to set something extra in my php session variables to make it

Or do I have to disable the cloaking?

[PHP] PHP / MVC layout question
Hello, the Zend Framework, as others, offers a MVC implementation for PHP. I guess my understanding of this is right, but I still have a question. Maybe you can help. Depending on the request, a controller is called. This can do various stuff w/o model(s), and then a view is displayed. That is, only one vue is displayed at a time. We use this happily into applications where input or list forms are displayed one at a time. The top banner template is included into every application view so that is will always be displayed. But I do not like the idea to embed (include) the top banner template into every view. The problem is even more obvious when we want to create a 'portal' layout, displaying many information panels, which should be splitted into many models/views. For example, a portal homepage may display a login form, a news feed, a banner, a footer, a poll, etc. When the user enters a bad username into the login form, we should re-display the portal page and provide the error message near the login form. So, the request to the login controller should be able to re-display the complete layout. How do you handle this? frames? iframes? ajax? other? thanks for your interest.

Moreover, having much parameters (more than 4) is not a good idea (for the same

If I define a function like this:

and then call: foo(1,2,bar);
is there a function I can call inside foo() that yields this hash:
{x = 1, y = 2, z = bar}
In other words, gives me the values *and names* of the arguments to foo?
func_get_args just yields the values.
Having this function would make writing constuctors easier.
The normal way:
fuction ClassName ($x, $y, $z) {
$this-x = $x;
$this-y = $y;
$this-z = $z;
}
could be replaced with:
function ClassName ($x, $y, $z) {
foreach (magic_function_i_want() as $key=$val) {
$this-$key =$val;
}
}
Obviously, it's more of a savings when you have a large number of parameters.

RE: [PHP] session issues on ie
Hi,
do you have any access to the client computers (is it an intranet)? If so,
check yourself the existence of the cookie and check JS and cookie settings on
their browser.From my own experience, you should never truct the user's
comments about their config or actions...
Otherwise, you could make a simple session_test.php pages that will test the
session_id() values.
simply put session_start();
then print the session_id();
If the session is ok, then the users should see the same session id on every
successive refresh (F5). If they don't see the same ID, then, they have a
problem.
If they have a problem for Ie only, I only see the cookie reason.
good luck

Subject: [PHP] session issues on ie
I have code which logs someone in and then allows them to see certain info
if they are logged in. I have users who claim it works fin in some of their
browsers, firefox, safari, etc and some versions of IE but not all and I'm
stumped.
Here's the code:
//this is from the login routine
if ($this-db-getField('user_id')){
session_start();
$_SESSION['user']['user_id']=$this-db-getField('user_id');
$_SESSION['user']['email']=$this-db-getField('email');
return true;
}
?
//only show if they are logged in
if (isset($_SESSION['user']['user_id']) !$_REQUEST['mlsid']){
//show something
}
?
People are claiming it tells them they are logged in yet they don't see what
is displayed under the code which checks their session. For some reason,
sessions don't seem to be there on all browsers yet they claim that cookies
and all are on.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Subject: [PHP] Storing objects in sessions recursively
PHP List,
I have a class called Session, which creates an object stored in the
$_SESSION variable. That object in turn holds on to a User object
which keeps track of the activity of the individual user who has logged
in and is using the web site. Then the $user object in turn holds on to
an Article object, which keeps information about web content that the
user is editing, previewing, and viewing.
The problem is that the article object keeps getting lost as the user
clicks from page to page.
I'm hoping someone can explain to me why this might be happening.
As far as I can understand it, an object is basically just an array, and
an object that owns an object as a member variable is just like
storing an array in an array. I can't see any reason why there would be
any limit to how many levels one could go down.
So I'm assuming there's no restriction on how many levels of objects
owning objects there can be.
As for the code itself, I hope I don't strip out any key details, as
it's all spread out across many classes. But here's what the basics of
it look like:
In the User class, I have this method:
public function setCurrentArticle($currentArticle)
{
$this-currentArticle = $currentArticle;
}
In the Article class I have this line:
Session::getSession()-getUser()-setCurrentArticle($this);
In the Session class I have:
private static $session;
private $user;
public function __construct()
{
$this-user = new User();
}
public function getUser()
{
return $this-user;
}
public static function getSession()
{
if (!isset($_SESSION['session']))
{
$_SESSION['session'] = new Session();
}
return $_SESSION['session'];
}
I may have missed a detail in trying to keep this brief and readable. If
so, please let me know and I will try to provide it.
Thank you for any advice.

[PHP] PHP LDAP search parent group
Hi,
I need to get the LDAP groups a user is member of (memberof). The problem is
that there are multiple levels of groups, and I need to get all levels.
example
userA is member of group A B and C
group A is member of (included in) group D
If I make a simple query on the LDAP server to fetch the memberof of userA, it
returns A, B and C.
I need to get also D because group A is in group D
In PHP I use the statement :
$list = ldap_search($conn, $userdn,$basedn, samaccountname=$name,
array('memberof')); //samaccountname is the Windows login name
I make a ldap_search() but I also tried with ldap_list() and ldap_read()
without change
I used the options
ldap_set_option($conn, LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS, 0);
ldap_set_option($conn, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3); //active Directory on
2003 server
Is there a parameter I could add to PHP so as to get the parent groups?
What is the LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS option ???

[PHP] problem with embeded objects and reference
Hi,
could anyone help on this 'by reference' problem.
I have 2 classes. The main class as a child class.
The child class has properties (array)
I would like to be able to manipulate the child's properties even after the child has
been inserted into the main class.
Does this make sense?
I can do it with by getting a reference of the child class, then setting the
property,like :
$tmp = $main-getChild(); //get a reference to the child object
$tmp-setProperty(forth);//ok
OR
$main-setChildProperty(third); //ok
but Whyt can't I do it directly by calling a reference to the child, like in :
$child1-setproperty(second); //The property is not set or not displayed
I know I need a reference to the child class that is within the maoin class, but HOW??
Here is a complete example
?php
class class1{
var $child; //array
function class1(){
$this-properties = array();
}
//set the child object (class2)
function setChild($child){
$this-child=$child;
}
//get the child object (class2), and call its setProperty method
function setChildProperty($prop){
$theChild = $this-child;
$theChild-setProperty($prop);
}
//return a reference to the child object
function getChild(){
return $this-child;
}
//print the child object properties
function display(){
$this-child-toString();
}
}
class class2{
var $properties; //array
function class2(){
$this-properties = array();
}
function setProperty($new_property){
$this-properties[] = $new_property;
}
function getProperty($index){
return $this-properties[$index];
}
function toString(){
print_r($this-properties);
}
}
$main = new class1();
$child1 = new class2();
$child1-setproperty(first);//displayed
$main-setChild($child1);
$child1-setproperty(second); //NOT DISPLAYED
$main-setChildProperty(third); //displayed
$tmp = $main-getChild(); //get a reference to the child object
$tmp-setProperty(forth);//displayed
$main-display();
//output : Array ( [0] = first [1] = third [2] = forth )

Smarty, as you know, basically takes a Smarty template and writes PHP code similar to what you've done above, then writes out the .php file, and includes it when you render your template. So you'd get nearly the same effect by writing the PHP as a separate file and including it as your last step, and it acts as your display logic. That may be acceptable to you, as a PHP programmer. If you're the only one who ever needs to modify your templates then that's great, more power to you. I'm sure that you would have no problem having many levels of nesting all over the place and not screwing anything up. So be it. But that's you. I guarantee another person not as adept at PHP will screw that code up, and there is less potential for that with a Smarty template. If you know PHP as well as yourself, it should be plain to see how Smarty is just a wrapper over PHP that makes templates easier to build and maintain. For a designer or non-coder, Smarty will be easier to learn than PHP. Unless your needs never exceed the very basics like you have demonstrated above, you'll be hosed when another person needs to modify your template. Which goes back to a templating truism never in dispute: if this is all you want templating for, it's six of one, half a dozen of the other. However, there are practical limitations on what you can easily accomplish with this approach, and Smarty addresses those issues. And you're worse off if you invest a lot into building your sites this way, and then realize you need some better templating strategies later. You can still separate your logic from your presentation, template designers can still use quick, simple tags to include code, and the upside is that people familiar with PHP don't need to learn ANOTHER language (that's what Smarty is) -- they can dive straight in. You can consider it it's own language, but really it's more like PHP with different formatting. Which is why it's different than what you're doing above--it's designed to facilitate templating. Your method is just poking in variables and PHP into inline'd HTML. It works, but you're missing some of the power of Smarty if you think that's all it's good for. The question is, do you want to give your templater designers full access to the power of PHP, or not. In other words: are your template designers already good PHP programmers? It's not just hype, it solves real problems, even if you don't have them. Smarty is a bit of a hack too... why do I need to declare my templates within the PHP code? If I'm an HTML designer I'd like to create a new page, include templates, use some data that's been made available and have it all in the template. I sure as heck wouldn't want to have joe programmer edit the main page, add support for importing my template. This is the thing that bugs me about Smarty, its still got that hanging dependency. And it's still got to include all those templates within the source code. InterJinn is superior in this respect. You use XML tags to import other templates, you use XML tags to load modules and components, and you use XML tags to do almost any kind of expansion you want. Of course, you can go ahead and use something else, InterJinn provides the ability to plug in custom compilers. InterJinn compiles to PHP code, includes are INCLUDED at compile time not at run time. So given this scheme anyone working on the HTML is already familiar with the syntax... hard to go wrong with: jinn:template path=topnav.template/ Hell you can even overload HTML tags. Not only that but Interjinn allows recursive includes of templates and source files, and these includes can be relative to the outer nested template or source file. Furthermore, there's nothing forcing the use of the InterJinn application layer so InterJinn can be used entirely for it's templating features, in which case it provides a faster resulting PHP page than using PHP include().

RE: [PHP] Problem uploading large files via PHP (20+ MB)
DNS error seems to indicate that you have a connection problem, not a storage or file
size restriction problem.
Maybe the IP connection is interrupted. ..
Do you have the same problem when running on Localhost?

Subject: [PHP] Problem uploading large files via PHP (20+ MB)
All,
I am attempting to upload a large file via PHP to a web server running
Windows XP Pro IIS 5.1 and I am having some problems. I have been trying to
find the right combination of settings in the php.ini file and elsewhere to
get large files to upload properly, but I keep getting a DNS error in
Internet Explorer 6 that shows up after about 12MB or 12.5MB of a 21.7MB
file has been transferred.
When I looked at the IIS website connection timeout it was set at 900
seconds. I have tried many different variations in the php.ini settings
file with little success. I have tried using the 8M format and also the
full out Byte count for size fields in the php.ini file. I can upload files
that are smaller that 10 MB (I tested with one that was 9MB earlier) with no
problem. Here are my most recent relevant settings in my php.ini file (that
I know of):
max_execution_time = 3600
max_input_time = 3600
memory_limit = 104857600
post_max_size = 104857600
upload_max_filesize = 104857600
Does anyone have any ideas? Am I missing something else? If you need any
more information that I left out please let me know. My code for the php
files is located below this message. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Keith

[PHP] SESSION vs ENV variables?
Hi, My script needs to load a config file with DB connection properties, etc. At the beginning of the session, the ini file is loaded and all values are stored in $_SESSION After the loading, a flag is also set in $_SESSION so that the ini loading is no more executed. However, all ini properties are the same for all users, so I wonder if I could put them in a cross-session variable. I guess $_ENV or $_SERVER should be good. So, the question could be : If I put something in $_SERVER, will these values be available for ALL users? Any idea? I have to keep the ini file, and could not hard code those properties.

[PHP] Cacheing data form PHP script
Hi all, I use a HTML menu that is created from multiple database queries. This is powerfull and very extendable. The problem is that the queries have to be executed on every new page or request. Moreover, the menu won't change very often for the users. So I would like to 'cache' the HTML code that is generated. If one admin add/remove/update one menu, I need to clear the cache. At the moment, I store the HTML code to display the menu in the $_SESSION['menu_cache']['menu_id'] var. And this works well! The pages are displayed faster when the menu is in the cache, which is the expected result! What is your opinion about this? Do you see any other way to 'cache' some content? Could I use the $_ENV variable (or any other) to cache the menus accross ALL visitors/users? Thank you Vincent

Maybe a PEAR package do do the trick. Have a look at PEAR_PackageFileManager on http://pear.php.net/package/PEAR_PackageFileManager I never used it, but plan to do.

[PHP] PEAR / PHP / IIS Inetinfo consuming more and more memory

The result is always the same : I can crypt a plain text but I cannot Uncrypt that text. Do you see any potential reason to this?
