Re: [PHP] Re: Programmers and developers needed
Not to say I'm all in for communism... but communism failed for the same reason capitalism is failing. Corruption! Here might be a way to deal with this political issue, while keeping on topic with the world peace PHP project: I've had this idea for years, but why not start a technocracy or ultra social-democracy that runs on a decentralized server, kind of like P2P (Kad, Bitcoins, etc.) -- only problem being the logic running the system (say, PHP scripts) would need to be programmed as a whole (so anyone could re-program the structure of such a social system, so it functioned the way everyone wanted). Think Wikipedia, but completely decentralized -- nobody could corrupt the system unless they were a majority. This seems to be the direction we're heading in -- what with hidden corruption, and most governments being slow processing laws, reforms, etc. May seem like a far-fetched idea, but I see it being one of the final things to come in a rapidly evolving technological society, replacing most republics with a social system more run by the people. Nobody would ever again complain about stuff not getting done, when mobs of people could actually change the system the way they wanted -- and quicker. Socialism/communism/Marxism in the past has never worked, because a minority-elite would eventually take over and convert it into a totalitarian state with only the mere façade of socialism we see in countries today (not exactly the idea Karl Marx had in mind). -- Doug Heimbecker d...@tac.us -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] gd for php5 under RH ES4

[PHP] Using php4 to manage Apache 1.3 access database
I'm trying to make a web page to maintain my Apache authorization file with instead of dbmmanage. Since I have to have php loaded for other reasons I started there. Problem seems to be that the OpenBSD package and port systems only seem to gdbm for php-4 and gdbm is not supported by Apache 1.3 (gdbm does seem to be supported for Apache 2 but that is not an option for me). Sort of a catch 22. Is this correct or am I more likely malforming the gdbm database or something else? Context is: OpenBSD 3.9 with default chrooted Apache 1.3 db-4.2.52p8 gdbm-1.8.3p0 php4-core-4.4.1p0 php4-dba-4.4.1p0 Ruby 1.8 supports DB files but I don't really want to move all the Ruby stuff to /var/www/ (required for the chrooted Apache install).

[PHP] Re: When is z != z ?
I love this thread. Who'da thunk alphabets could be so much fun? FWIW: Different language, different rules - to do 'letter math', letters must be converted to their ASCII number value, add one, convert back to a letter. The set of allowed ASCII numbers is limited to (I think) 256 and 'real' letters are a subset of that collection. Going from a-z was easy. Once you hit z, you reverted character 1 to a, then looped a-z for character 2, repeat as required. There were only a couple of ways to evaluate a string's 'size'; alphabetical and length. Each comparison generated different results and one had to choose the comparison method based on the particular requirements. In order to convert a string to some numeric value, I believe I had to do it letter-by-letter and derive my own 'value' for the string which would be mostly useless. While the specific language methods differ from PHP (the language did not allow anything like 'a'++ so this particular discussion couldn't happen), it doesn't seem to me that the philosophical underpinnings are all that different - letters are special. They look and behave differently depending on the particular microscope you happen to be using.

RE: [PHP] PDF printing under windows.
Not sure how this might work in PHP, but there is something called WSH (go to MS and poke around) that gives you access to a ton of really interesting Windows bits and pieces. The following is a script I run in Lotus Notes (LotusScript is rather like VBA) and it allows you to set the default printer to something which you then just print to and reset the default to whatever it was. PDFCreator is a 'printer' that generates PDF files (you probably don't want this since use of PDFCreator includes it's own set of user interactions but the WSH concept may still work). Warning - I'm not a WSH expert and I never figured out how to properly reset the printer to the user's default so I don't actually use this script. Still, someone smarter than me may have the magic touch - give it a whirl. Sub Initialize Dim net pName$ = PDFCreator Set net = CreateObject(WScript.Network) net.SetDefaultPrinter pName$ End Sub Doug -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 25, 2005 10:50 AM To: php-general@lists.php.net; php-windows@lists.php.net Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] PDF printing under windows. Two (and a half) things: 1. Even though DOS/Windows machines don't have, specifically, /dev/printer or /dev/lpr or whatever the *nix specific is, it does have a LPTx: device According to the page listed below, it may be possible to do: copy /b filename LPTx The /b indicates it's a binary file. How it'd handle PDF fonts and such, I'm not sure, but I know that some printers can decode PDF's internally so that'd work out great. 2. Second point... If all you need is a simple print function and you have exec() privs, why not try to find a DOS based printing solution. The copy command above was mentioned on this page: http://www.lerup.com/printfile/ It says it works with Windows 3.1 to XP. And it even works with command line options: PrintFile also works well with command line (DOS) programs. It has several command line options and can read data from command line standard input, e.g. a command line pipe. A command like: dir | prfile32 So I guess it sets up it's own print device that you can pipe to. And finally... the half a point. All of this may not be necessary because you can configure Windows printers to support DOS (although I havn't done this in ages, I assume you still can in XP) so in theory the normal DOS print command would pipe through Windows drivers and print handling to the printer of choice. So in general, there's probably zero need to use COM to print. One of these options should pipe the file through Windows which in turn, could possibly send it through the proper printing method. If not, you might be able to look in your registry and find the right-click Print... option and see if it's something you can execute from command line. Ok, I know this email's too long already, but I know someone's going to say How do you do that? So here's the 50 cent tour: 1. Pull up regedit 2. Search for the file extension .pdf 3. Make note of the (Default) value, in this case AcroExch.Document (I think this is specific to having the full Acrobat installed) 3. Below the area where all the file extensions are in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT there are the actual named app section (that way, .gif and .jpg can both point to Photoshop.document or something.. get it?) So search for AcroExch.Document in this case 4. Expand that tree and look for shell. These are all the things that show up on your right-click menu. In this case, we have a print section. Under each of these entries, there should be (but sometimes not) a command branch. This is what's run when you select that option from the right-click menu. And voila! We find that the command to use Acrobat to print (which can be executed from command line on a Windows machine) is: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe /p /h %1 Substituting the %1 for the filename. Using that command line in a php exec() call should exactly simulate selecting right-click PRINT on a PDF file. Crossposting this to PHP-Win for their benefit too since this is more Windows related than PHP General. I see lots of ways to potentially solve this problem without using COM. I loved messing with COM (with or without PHP) for a while, but it's not a great general solution to things unless you absolutely HAVE to control the app (which is very cool and slick sometimes, but not for something as simple as printing).

I've been experimenting with a couple of different wiki packages, but am always interested in others' thoughts and recommendations. In particular, I've looked at MediaWiki and PmWiki.

PmWiki is probably my current candidate, but again I'd like to make sure I'm not missing a more obvious choice. My shopping list for the ideal wiki application is: - wiki entries preferably stored in MySQL tables. I'm not adamant about this (eg PmWiki uses files rather than a db backend), but it would suit my purposes better to be able to draw from the wiki tables from the front page of my blog to show lists of recently added and recently updated wiki entries - non-reliance on CamelCase wiki links. Many of my characters etc use joined CamelCase names (eg KillFork and DangerSpoon), and to avoid confusion I'd rather explicitly define links to wiki content - ability to categorize wiki entries - ability to compare history of wiki edits and easily reinstate older edits if wiki pages get 'graffiti'd' - ability to allow others to edit / create wiki entries, thru a user id / password system, so that regulars who would like to participate can do so - ability to customize presentation of wiki pages, presumably through CSS etc, so that I can maintain the 'look and feel' of my blog thru the wiki content - PHP based, though my host does run Perl, so if the killer wiki app is a Perl-based one, I'm sure I can muddle thru implementing it If anyone has any recommendations for other wiki applications I should look at before making a decision, I'd love to hear from you!

foreach ($data as $k=$v) {
$sql.= $k. = '.$v.', ;
}
$sql.=;;
$result = mysql_query($sql);
}
The only problem with the statement is the appended comma to each
iteration - the statement generates a mysql error with the extra comma at
the end of the statement. This seems like an easy fix -any ideas?

You can usually avoid this type of problem in the first place with

[PHP] Error redirect function
I have a message board script that requires certain parameters like message_id, thread_id, etc. The whole thing works fine, I'd like to have a generic error page to default to in the case that someone fools with the parameters above - for example, setting the thread id to 400 when there are only 300 threads. Right now, it just generates the mysql error message, which doesn't look nice. I know you can use the die() function after the mysql_query function to display some text in the case of an error, but I want to go a little further by redirecting to an error page.

Greetings All, I am creating a 'links' page and was wondering if there was a way in PHP to test the response of an outside link? I'm sure everyone here has clicked on a links page link and have a No Page Found error because no one is keeping the links uptodate. I was wondering if there was a way when a link was clicked to test the link first to see if it is still active. If it isn't active, I would like to remove the link from my database. Is there a command that tests the results of link? Thanks, Doug Coning American Web Studio http://www.americanwebstudio.com HTML / FLASH / PHP / MYSQL / FILEMAKER

[PHP] File upload restrictive permissions
Recently I had a problem with file uploading on a server I use, and the problem was that the tmp/ directory was not set. Now that it has been set, the images do upload, but the file permissions end up being very restrictive - something like (-rw---) - so the images obviously do not show up on the web. I know I could login and chmod tihs, but since we have clients upload their own images, it goes without saying that this would be a major inconvenience. Our sysadmin, who is relatively clueless, suggested that I add a php chmod function to my scripts. I suppose this would work, but I don't understand why my scripts once worked without this function - the files uploaded and were web-viewable. I checked both the target directory and tmp/ directory, and both are fit for web viewing. Any ideas as to how I could fix this?

Re: [PHP] POSIX seteuid and similar
You guys can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe what is referred to here is SUEXEC. This allows a virtual domain instance to run as any specified username and group. You are not setting the UID of the script but rather any script fun for that domain. This way you don't have to chmod 777 or chgrp apache files. The virtual server instance is set to run as you (usually) and thus has the same permissions you do. You may have to compile or recompile apache to get this to work for your set up (requires you specify a path where SUEXEC files exist) among other things. hope this helps... now... any regexp's response out there? :-) On Monday, July 21, 2003, at 12:56 PM, David Goodchild wrote: Curt, thanks for that, I didnt see that in the notes.

Re: [PHP] Re: How to..
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Haseeb: hi, i have heard a lot of people commenting about the coding style of other programmers. i think everyone has his own style. but i also say that there should be a standard that should be followed by everyone. A nice idea that can never fly. It might work for basic programming but you have to realize there are many ways and styles that people develop - often times based on their idea of proper coding philosophy. OO code is a perfect case in point. Pure OO coders (the ones that realize Small Talk is the ideal OO model *shrug*) will have a different style and implementation. This thread talks about using include files (and thus classes) as a good way to split up code. The problem is, the code i've seen, the reason for using the classes isn't to write any object code at all (where is the inheritance?) but rather to keep thing organized. PHP suffers from the fact that there is a huge difference between the most basic of programming skills (it's an easy language to pick up) and the folks that have been writing OO code all their life (C++, Perl, Java, etc.). I've seen it in Perl - I cannot code in the same style as a friend of mine (Randal Schwartz). He simply thinks on a much higher level than I ever will and thus his coding style will always be more sophisticated.

[PHP] XML Parsing
Hello,
I'm new to PHP but have been coding in Perl for over six years. I've
had a steep learning curve in the last few days. My task has been to
use fsockopen to pull in an XML stream, parse that XML stream, and
package up that data into a complex, but usable data structure. We've
been able to accomplish this in Perl but now I'm attempting to port the
Perl code to PHP. The Perl code was written by Randal Schwartz (for me)
but he's not interested in helping me solve the PHP problems I'm
running into. I'm hoping to find someone on this list savvy in Perl
and PHP, and understands complex data structures (in perl the hash
refs/pointers go about four levels deep). I've included below the PHP
code with three functions in question. Below each function is the Perl
code I'm attempting to port.
Here are some URL's that might help:
http://shop.sprocketdata.com/test.php - url for the code below (which
works if you copy paste)
ignore the feof error- i left out the fsockopen because I know that's
not where the problem is nor does this error effect the output.
http://stage.holdit.com/cgi-bin/is/shipping.cgi - url for equivalent
code in perl (ignore the drop-down)
http://stage.holdit.com/cgi-bin/is/fetch.cgi - the data structure I'm
trying to achieve in PHP
http://stage.holdit.com/cgi-bin/is/is.cgi - the raw XML data structure
- almost useless until parsed and probably useless to look at :-).
You'll also notice at the bottom of the code I've included how the PHP
XML parsed the data. It's very similar to the fetch.cgi - maybe it's
different and thus causing the problem but I don't see it.

[PHP] Perl to PHP (Was XML Parsing)
First let me thank Tyler Lane for pointing out my XML issue. I'm an
idiot (= vs. ==) was holding me up. D'uh!
Now allow me to ask a Perl to PHP conversion question or three. As any
Perl and PHP programmer is aware PHP does not have the cool reference
thing going that Perl does (yeah, I hear the newest release of PHP is
going there). It's not as bad as C++ (so I hear) but regardless it
doesn't work like it does in Perl. Not complaining, just stuck (again).
Perl code:
sub {
my ($tagname, $attr) = @_;
push @state, $tagname;
if (@state eq shipment package) {
$package_id = $attr-{id};# need to convert this
#$attr is a ref to a hash where id is the key.
}
elsif (@state eq shipment package quote) {
print @state\n;
%quote = ( package_id = $package_id, id = $attr-{id} );
#need to convert the above line.
}
}, tagname, attr],
PHP code:
function startElement($Parser, $Elem, $Attr) {
global $state;
array_push ($state, $Elem);
$states = join (' ',$state);
if ($states == SHIPMENT PACKAGE) {
$package_id = $Attr-{id};//How to get the pointer to the data?
// The value of this should be '1'
}
elseif ($states == SHIPMENT PACKAGE QUOTE) {
echo $states\n;
// %quote = ( package_id = $package_id, id = $attr-{id} );
$quote = array ( package_id = $package_id, id = $attr-{id} );
}
}
After that, how would this convert:
$quote{class_name} = $text;
quote is a hash where class_name is the key.
Thanks again!

At the point where they fill out the registration form, I am sending them an email, informing them that they have been registered.

To set the default reply to go to the author of a particular post is to have the default to break the public nature of the conversation and shift it to a private conversation. Of course, this default can be overridden by an action of the replier. But if the default model is public conversation, why should the default be private reply?

This leads to the following output: Warning: Error parsing /mydirectory/mysql.ini on line 4 in Unknown on line 0 Array ( [host] = spore.org [uid] = myuserid [passwd] = mypassword) The error message still remains, though now the test confirms that mysql.ini is being parsed. PS Please check the difference between print_r() and echo() as well... Thanks for the tip. I have read the manual for both of these.

[PHP] imagettftext - font size randomly changes
Hello all, I'm using the following code to create images on the fly on a web site for page headers. This works great for the most part, but a couple times now the text has started resizing for no apparent reason. The first time it was just slightly wider than normal. Most recently the text was giant. I'm running PHP 4.3.1 on Win2k Server. Code: header(Content-type: image/jpeg); $im = imagecreate(200,14); $white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255,255,255); $green = imagecolorallocate($im, 51,102,0); $shadow = imagecolorallocate($im, 204,204,153); imagettftext($im, 12, 0, 1, 14, $shadow, arialbd.ttf, $imgText); imagettftext($im, 12, 0, 0, 13, $green, arialbd.ttf, $imgText); imagejpeg($im); imagedestroy($im); If I restart IIS, the problem goes away.

Hi everyone - I need suggestions for a reliable PHP/mySQL host that has cURL support WITH https capability.

I could also use suggestions for a reliable Credit Card processor. If anyone has experience with this and can point me in the right direction, I would REALLY appreciate it.

I needed cURL badly in order to process credit card transactions, now I don't even have the option. I supposed I could use the PHP wrapper with the API, but it looks difficult and the processing company (Linkpoint) really doesn't seem to have their stuff together as far as support goes, or anything for that matter.

[PHP] form submission and storing variables
I'm sending information to be processed by a third party site. I need to store the inputted information in my site, via session or whatever, at some point. However, the 3rd part site only accepts the information via a POST form submission, so I can't record the variables, then redirect them to the 3rd party site via a header function.

Re: [PHP] quick question
Right - but the problem is, the form is submitting to another site, so i don't have a way to store the variables. I could put them in session variables, but I would have to create another script and then forward the form submission to the outside side. This isn't working because the outside site requires the variables to be submitted via a form, or POST i guess. I don't even know if I'm going about this the right way - I just need to somehow store variables on my site that are submitted for processing to another site, so that when the user is sent back from that other site, i can put the values in the form fields of a new page.

However, I want to add another form in the same page. My current form acts

the same, how would my PHP determine with action submit button was acted
upon?
Currently, for the single form here is how it knows a form was submitted:

== form1)) {
How would I test which form submitted the action?

I've solved similar things, i.e. removing commas from a number of text

all using Javascript via the onSubmit event. This chunk of code removes
commas from input boxes:
script
for (var i = 0; i form.elements.length; i++)
{
var pattern = /,/ig;
var newString = form.elements[i].value.replace(pattern,);
form.elements[i].value = newString;
}
/script
In your case, you'd just replace the , with a . I don't know of an
easier way, though if one exists I'd would like to know about it.

[PHP] passing form variables with the same name
I'm passing form variables from a script that is meant to display information to be updated in a mysql database, and it sends these to a script that updates the changed values. The problem is, I have a number of the same field being passed. For example, I have two fields in an html form - Resource and Task, that need to be updated in a specific table, let's call it Projects. However, I need to update every Resource and Task in table Projects. So if there were 5 rows in Projects, the script would display the values for Task and Resource for all 5 rows, so that would total 10 input boxes. Obviously, I loop the display of these variables in input boxes as to get all 5 rows. So in order to send the variables to the script that will update them, they need to be unique - right? I can't have the input name=Resource for each one, so in the loop on the form I resolved this by appending a number to each one - e.g. input name=Resource1, input name=Task1, input name=Resource2, ... etc. So now I have the unique variables I need, the problem is that I have no idea how to loop through them in the update script and update each one accordingly. Can someone give me an idea how to do this? I'd love to use an array, but I don't think you can pass an array value from a form and have it work on the update script - e.g. input name=Resource[0]... any help would be greatly appreciated. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Subject: Re: [PHP] can i use --with-unixODBC instead of --with-ibm-db2?
Matt,
I wish you were my boss :) I love MySQL and would want to use it instead
of db2 (seeing i could probably have had it working with php last week ;) )
but Somehow my boss loves to waste money on IBM products... and then
hires on people who don't know how to use them well (i.e. me!). My
philosophy is: don't waste money on it, if you can use some open source --
for example he wanted to use IBM WAS (websphere application server) but, PHP
will do everything we need to do, and is a lot easier to deal with than the
bulky WAS.
Anyways.
I had seen the IBM document that you referenced about connecting DB2 to
PHP, in fact, it's the main document i used to start attempting to get PHP
to work with DB2. The second doc you referenced from phpbuilder.net was
definately a good find -- had a couple ideas that i hadn't tried (i.e.
catalogging the db, running apache as db2inst1 [still trying to get that to
work, db2inst1 doesn't have the priviledges that root has, and henceforth
can't access all the files needed by apache])
Matt, thanks again for all your help!

It seems way too difficult to configure db2 on linux. Let alone trying to
do
it on freebsd, which I hope to tackle that next week.
I tell you though, I really love mysql, it's so easy to use, and
configure.
mysql just works. mysql's performance on a table I have that has roughly
250,000 rows of address entries, beats our as/400 with db2 by orders of
magnitude and mytest box is a Celeron 300.

Andrew,
I tried adding these lines to my php script...

putenv(DB2INSTANCE=db2inst1);
// i assume that's the right way to create those statements

Hi everyone...
I have a php page that return rows from a database. I then have an href
link to the individual thread as such:
a href='73things_thread.php?threadID=.$row-postid.' target='_blank'.
This works, it opens a new window which has the detailed information needed.
However, how would I write java code into this to force it to open the
window at 300 by 255? I know the java code for this is as follows:
onclick=MM_openBrWindow('73things_thread.php','Thread','scrollbars=yes,widt

How do I merge the java code into PHP?

Rather than just setting globals on in php.ini, try this:
Your printf() line is:

And your if() statement is:
if($id) {}
Where is $id set? It's probably not. $HTTP_GET_VARS[id] doesn't set
$id. If you want the id variable in your if(), you need:
if($HTTP_GET_VARS[id]) {}
Or alternately do:
$id = $HTTP_GET_VARS[id]
if($id) {}
Although that's not necessary. Also, try using $_GET[id], as
$HTTP_GET_VARS[] has been deprecated in newer versions.

Subject: [PHP] Different Problem [Re: Passing a Variable to PHP Via the

I found out that in fact PHP is creating a variable with the name
and value I'm passing through a URL from the querystring. But
it's still not working as planned.
The url server/test.php?id=1 creates the following results in my code:
printf(Variables: %s\nbr, $HTTP_GET_VARS[id]);
This line works - there IS a variable named 'id' in my page and it
has the correct value, 1.
if ($id) {}
This fails. If I test 'id' instead of '$id' then it works but my
page doesn't seem to equate 'id=1' with the presence of $id.
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM employees WHERE id=$id,$db);
This doesn't work - again it seems $id isn't being treated
properly. I get this error:
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid
MySQL result resource
If I hardwire my page with the line '$id=1;' before the if
statement and the query everything works.
So why isn't the variable from my URL being treated properly?

Subject: include() statement goofing me up - help Can anyone let me know what I am doing incorrectly on the following page: http://www.solomonsporch.org/test.php The news clips that should appear are a service from another site and I simply want to include them on my page, but I am getting an error. The include() statement or link http://www.gospelcom.net/mnn/includes/pubNewsTease.php?li=yeslimit=4 works when typed as a regular URL so I figure it must be my issue. Thanks. -Doug -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Fw: include() statement goofing me up - help
I've changed the source file on this issue. Slightly different error, but still no joy. Thanks for taking the time with this. html head /head body test area should show 4 lines of news ?php include (http://www.gospelcom.net/mnn/includes/pubNewsTease.php?li=yeslimit=4;) ? /body /html - Original Message - From: Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Jay Blanchard' [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 10:30 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] Fw: include() statement goofing me up - help That may be the case, but I had assumed the show() was a function in the file that should be included. When I include files and it doesn't work (I've only started trying today and discovered the beauties of the include_path) it says: Fatal error: Failed opening required 'includeFile.inc' (include_path='.:/opt/net/utils/lib/php') in /prj/web/.../file.php on line 4 So I would guess that his include() is working and there either is no show() in the file or he isn't actually including it, which goes back to your idea. Hopefully he'll give us more info :-) -Natalie -Original Message- From: Jay Blanchard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 1:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP] Fw: include() statement goofing me up - help you are getting the error Fatal error: Call to undefined function: show() in e:\solomonsporch.org\test.php on line 9 show() is not a function, try include() Jay Wouldn't it be great if lists were like the Magic 8 Ball or a Quija board? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] dumb guy needs smart answer
I get the following error statement from a PHP insert I am trying at http://www.solomonsporch.org/test.php Warning: Failed opening 'http://www.gospelcom.net/mnn/includes/pubNewsTease.php?li=yeslimit=4' for inclusion (include_path='c:\php4\pear') in e:\solomonsporch.org\test.php on line 12 I really don't know what I am doing -- but would sure appreciate getting this working.

[PHP] Looking for a PHP/MySQL Developer for short project
Folks, I am relatively new to PHP MySQL. I took on a side project some months ago which I now realize is over my head. The project is a real estate catalog. I adapted the catalog system from Welling and Thomson's PHP MySQL Web Development from SAMS. I really need to wrap this project up. So, I am looking for someone whose skills are strong and has time to connect all of the dots in the modifications I've made. The Database is built and I've not strayed to far from the original PHP, so I think this should be relatively simple for someone with lots of dev experience in this environment. If you are interested in working on this, please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please include your number of years experience in this environment, hourly rate, current availability, links to some sample sites and two professional references.

[PHP] scoping: can someone explain to me if this should/should not work?
The following code seems to work in general but everyone once in a while I'm
getting a segmentation fault. Can someone explain to me why this would be
intermittent and/or whether or not it should work?
function getDomain($serverName)
{
$result = $serverName;
// some processing to result occurs here
echo here 3: $resultbr;
return $result;
}
function test()
{
global $SERVER_NAME;
echo here 1br;
$domain = getDomain($SERVER_NAME);
echo here 2br;
}
When I get a segv, I get the output:
here 1
here 3: appropriate value here
The here 2 is not displayed. I thought that this would a return by copy
and not have an issue.

[PHP] Re: corrupted definitions
Further info: I'm on Redhat Linux 6.2. The uname output is Linux web2 2.2.13-0.13smp #1 SMP Tue Jan 11 13:26:01 EST 2000 i686 unknown. Also, the problem goes away if I set display_errors in php.ini to Off. Can someone explain? I'm guessing a memory overrun somewhere. Note that on another machine running Redhat Linux 6.1 with a uname output of Linux web3 2.2.16-3smp #1 SMP Mon Jun 19 19:00:35 EDT 2000 i686 unknown, the problem does NOT occur even if display_errors in php.ini is set to On. - doug Doug Farmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Re: [PHP] Call to undefined function problem
Typo in my explanation. I had defined in my code. Nice catch though.
However, I'm running into more define issues. When I get to a file through
a redirect via header(Location: /newfile.php), my defines are existing as
tested by defined but the values are all corrupt. However, if I then
refresh the page, the value is good. Anyone else seen this in php-4.0.6?
Can someone explain to me what is fixed for defines in the 4.0.7 candidate?

require(); // several other requires here

// other stuff here

// a few more functions here
}
My output is

here 2

$DOCUMENT_ROOT/test.php on line 16
Can someone explain? I found something similar in the archives but no
answer was given. This exact code worked under php3. The only changes
in
the files were files ending in php3 were changed to end php. I also had
2
classes that I was using that had initializers in the variable
declaration.
I moved the initialization to constructors.
Note that on some clients the request goes through w/o errors. This is
intermittent but consistent on a per client basis.
