Hi there!

Is it possible to load a select-list with databasinfo without reloading a

With AJAX, yeah.

Curt.


call it 'remote scripting', dammit! it rarely seems to get used as 
'ajax' strictly.. unless you're using some kinda of framework, i 
suppose, but far too often xml isn't returned!


(never mind me, it's just a pet hate of mine, aha)

PHP does not support function overloading.
So, is there any other way of getting a number of parameters(variables) 
passed to a function?


aka.
function fruits($apple, $banana, $kiwi, $grape){

#should (somehow) output 4

}

OK. if it was an array, than I could use count($array), but now I'm stuck!

Thanks in advance! 


func_num_args() will do the trick.

and then you use func_get_arg() or func_get_args() to use them.

[PHP] Re: Mail-format...

[joshua may]

I was having the same issue with one of my clients just today in fact. 
We just filtered the email addresses to ensure they're valid. There's a 
million regex's out there to do this for you..

[PHP] Re: Best way to mass mail

[Joshua May]

You have to be careful, though, because I had this problem..

I had PHP running as a CGI on the host with Apache, and Apache had a
nasty habit of terminating the CGI communicationg before PHP had
finished mailing everyone, even if set_time_limit(0); was set (well,
even if set_time_limit(arbitrarily_big_number); was used).

I ended up using an exec call to a shell script, which executed the PHP
CLI binary with a custom php.ini, and as a background process. The mails
successfully send, now. And yes, it's a convoluted way, but as it turns
out, it was the only way to properly background it and run all the way
until it ends.

So be careful if you decide to rely on set_time_limit()..

Josh.

Use set_time_limit(0); and your script will never timeout. Anyway, long 
standing scripts should be run off your Web server, maybe started from 
by cron.
