Perfectly fine. Shouldn't break an opcode cache. the opcode cache will
store the opcodes to do what you've done above and also will store
opcodes for the function wherever it was declared. Then when it runs off
it will go. For what it's worth... functions have global scope... all
functions are store in some kind of lookup table. Associative arrays
have O( lg n ) lookup time. Let's imagine you had 1 million defined
functions... We're talking at most 19 node traversals on a balanced
binary tree (yes I know it's a hashing algorithm). A billion declared
functions 29 steps. Is it fast? Yes.
Cheers,
Rob.

internals is about engine development. always ask on the generals list
first, you can always escalate the question if no-one there can offer
any help.

whatever. sounds like a limited way of looking at things, nonetheless
it's perfectly feasable to write the registry pattern using
functions a/some global var(s).

output_foo_html()

no, the thing that breaks the opcode cache is when you declare a function
conditionally because the function declaration has to be deferred until
runtime. there are plenty of detailed posts on the internals list
about this (try searching for 'APC' will likely turn up quite alot).
if(function_exists('output_foo_'.$format)) {
call_user_func('output_foo_'.$format);
} else {
output_foo_html();
}
you don't need call_user_func() here (which is very handy but also slow):
$func = 'output_foo_'.$format;
if (function_exists($func))
$func();
else
output_foo_html();

You need to lookup the mysql_fetch_assoc() function. It only returns
one row from a result set that may contain multiple rows. You need
something like:
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
// do something with $row
}

well I looked it up in my book and tried this example but still get the same
thing, the first record
$result = mysql_query ($query) ;
//$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)){
for ($i=0; $imysql_num_fields($result); $i++)
echo $row[$i] . ;
//print a return for neatness sake

{

I can appreciate that, but PHP *is* a templating language that is meant to embed dynamic strings into static strings. Therefore, I strongly agree that there should be a shorthand for this type of thing. When considering correct separation of code and templates, this output of dynamic strings should be optimized in all ways possible - both performance wise and syntactically. And yes, all of my template code uses short tags for direct string output and the short tags do cause problems so I'm looking forward to a better way.

[PHP] Re: PHP OOP
I don't think that PHP is good language for teaching OOP as many folks above said. I have never programmed in OOP style but i plan to learn it. I started in PHP but i was little confused and i am used to program in procedural way in PHP, so i've decided to learn some pure OOP language. I am reading a book OOP Demystified, there are examples in both C++ and Java. And imo Java code is much more readable and understandable. So i think that Java is the best for learning OOP. I am also considering learning C#, if you dont mind that it's closely related to windows, it might be also a good choice. -- tedd t...@sperling.com píse v diskusním príspevku news:p0624080dc5b5fff1c...@[192.168.1.101]... Hi gang: At the college where I teach, they are considering teaching OOP, but they don't want to settle on a specific language. My thoughts are it's difficult to teach OOP without a language -- while the general concepts of OOP are interesting, people need to see how concepts are applied to understand how they work -- thus I think a specific language is required I lean toward C++ because I wrote in it for a few years AND C++ appears to be the most common, widespread, and popular OOP language. However, while I don't know PHP OOP, I am open to considering it because of the proliferation of web based applications. My personal opinion is that's where all programming is headed anyway, but that's just my opinion. With that said, what's the differences and advantages/disadvantages between C++ and PHP OOP?

use http://rssphp.net/ you can view the source online and it's all done

First off, you should be using getElementsByTagNameNS since you are
working with a namespaced document. I am assuming its a Yahoo Media RSS
feed, so you would get the elements via:
$r = $doc-getElementsByTagNameNS(http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/;,
content);
Then to output the url attribute value:
foreach ($r AS $elem) {
echo $elem-getAttribute(url) . \n;
}

An example of what I would like to achieve is: The primary instance of the program opens a text input window for the user to enter, say, one or more addresses from the contact list. It then pops up a second window, which could be another instance of the same program. In this window the user can search the contacts for the names he wants, and highlight them. When he is satisfied he clicks the submit button on the second window. When he does this the second window closes, and the primary window detects the response, processes it, and inserts it into the entry area. I gather that it would be possible for the first program to spawn a child process when the user clicks the button, and this could then open the second window. I think that the child can share session variables with the parent, so the parent could redraw its window, then wait for some flag to be set in the session window, indicating the second window was closing. The parent would then redraw its page incorporating the new information.

Terion: Install Firefox and the HTML Validator extension. It is a perfect tool
for you. It will clearly identify all the HTML errors and warnings, AND point
you to how to fix them. It uses Tidy, which classifies many errors as warnings.
However, you should fix them. Your page has 21 serious warnings many of which
are errors that will affect rendering. After you've fixed the warnings and
errors it finds, run the W3C HTML Validator.
Also, install the Firefox extension Validate CSS. Run it on your page. It has
8 bad errors.
These tools are great learning aids.

Neither of these are something I want. Because of that (and the occasional need to persist sessions on clustered web servers) I usually write my own session save handler.

Don't embed css in document -- just put what you want in your css file.
If IE has a problem with it, then deal with IE within the css file.
There are css hacks if you can't find a way around the problem.
But embedding css style rules is a real no-no in my book -- there's
no reason to do it.

On my dev sites I embed the CSS, on production it gets exported to an

Here's something for fixing IE with hacks:
http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk/coding_html_comments.php
basically it lets you add in extra IE-only stylesheets using comment
code only recognised by IE, and you can use !important to stress your IE
styles. Best thing though is it validates through the W3C because it is
just an HTML comment.

You could do several things.
1) Use javascript to make a link using the band3 value within the Javascript
to pass the ID to the next page.
Example:
Have a Javascript function -
script language=JavaScript
!--
function openWin(band_id) {
var link
link = my/directory/display.php?band_id=' + band_id;
MyWin = window.open(link,OpenPage);
MyWin.focus();
}
//--
/script
And then call that function when you click on the band you want.
a href=javascript:openWin('?php echo $band_id; ?')?php echo $band;
?/a
2) You could use form objects (radio buttons/check boxes/dropdown box etc)
to pass the band_id value via POST
Then on your second page all you would have to do is get the value.
Example:
input type=radio tabindex=1 name=band value=?php echo $band_id;
?
input type=radio tabindex=2 name=band value=?php echo $band_id;
?
input type=radio tabindex=3 name=band value=?php echo $band_id;
?
On the second page you would simply check the posted value of you band
radio input:
$band_id = $_POST['band'];
Hope that helps.

Maybe too simple, but just use a get var in the link of page1:
a href=page2.php?band=1Band1/a
a href=page2.php?band=2Band2/a
Then in page2 use $_GET['band'] and do your query. (of course checked
and sanitized, yadayada...)

[PHP] Re: [PHP-DB] Re: data from db to a page and then to another page
Thanks for the aswers, but there is still some problems.
I tested this code(below) and it works but when I add it to the rest of my
code it stops working.
Here's the working code:
page1:
?php
$bandname = Someband;
?
form name=goto_info action=band_info.php method=post
input type=hidden name=bandname value=?php echo $bandname; ?
a href=band_info.php?bandname=$bandname onclick=goto_info.submit();
return false;?php echo $bandname; ?/a
/form
and page2:
Bandname is ?php echo $_POST[bandname]; ?!
_
Now, here's the one I've been fighting with:
?
include(XXX.inc.php);
mysql_connect($host,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( Unable to select database);
$query=SELECT * FROM band;
$result=mysql_query($query);
$num=mysql_numrows($result);
mysql_close();
echo bcenterBands/center/bbrbr;
?
table border=0 cellspacing=2 cellpadding=2
tr
thfont face=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serifbandname/font/th
/tr
?
$i=0;
while ($i $num) {
$bandname=mysql_result($result,$i,bandname);
?
tr
form name=goto_info action=band_info.php method=post
input type=hidden name=bandname value=?php echo $bandname; ?
a href=band_info.php?bandname=$bandname onclick=goto_info.submit();
return false;?php echo $bandname; ?/a
/form
/tr
?
++$i;
}
echo /table;
?
For some reason this doesn't post bandname to band_info page...
Your while () { } loop looks strange to me. You are doing a SELECT * from
your database and basically want to output each result with an assigned
$bandname, right?
If you're selecting all records, that you shouldn't need to do a row count
or use the $i counter.
You could simply do this:
script language=JavaScript
!--
function submitForm(bandname) {
document.goto_info.bandname.value=bandname;
document.goto_info.submit();
}
//--
/script
?
include(XXX.inc.php);
mysql_connect($host,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( Unable to select database);
$query=SELECT * FROM band;
$result=mysql_query($query);
mysql_close();
?
bcenterBands/center/bbrbr
form name=goto_info action=band_info.php method=post
input type=hidden name=bandname value=
table border=0 cellspacing=2 cellpadding=2
tr

while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {

Todd,
I have attached a few jpgs to show the problems I am having (With both of my
recent posts)
Any questions you can call me.
The first one shows the value of the php file I am trying to parse.( I cant set
any of those directives,) I can't set php.ini per dir
The second shows what your REGEX looks like as its being sent to:
preg_match_all($regex, $test2, $result, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
As you can see there is a whole lot of escaping going on here.

Mike,
You are using preg_quote(). This will add slashes to every special RegEx
character in your pattern (i.e., parentheses and dollar signs, etc.). Try
performing your RegEx search without using preg_quote() and let me know if it
does any better. Also--try to keep your replies on the PHP List, as the
information in them can be used by others on their own projects.

[PHP] Re: PHP friendly web software?
I'd say it's not a really good idea to mix code and layout together. Try using some of the template systems, or maybe XML/XSL instead. I honestly don't know, and doesn't think if there is, or will ever be any page editor does it well as you've demanded. Can anyone recommend a wysiwyg web development software which is php friendly, i.e. you can design the page in wysiwyg and insert php code into the html without destroying the screen image preview. I've been using Frontpage to compose the page then dev-php to insert the php code. This has worked well but if layout changes need to be made Frontpage displays stuff all over the place.

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP causing Script: '/usr/www/...' in httpd-error.log?
There are no calls to error_log in the files, however, I took care of some notices in the code (with error_reporting to E_ALL - there where only notices - no errors or warnings) and suddenly the number of entries in the error log dropped. Getting rid of all notices will probably solve the problem. But i still dont get how this can be happening. error_reporting is set to 0 in php.ini, and no changes or calls to error functions are made in the code. It's also kind of strange that other files in the same framework, files that uses the same functions, includes the same files, etc, dont generate these kind of errors in the log at all. /Robert On Mon, Nov 24, 2008 at 4:08 PM, Jochem Maas [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: robert arnesson schreef: A.

Nope, it's just http, port 80, and not to IIS. To be clear, PHP scripts/processes on Server A (Mac OS X Server 10.4.11, PHP 5.2.4) are issuing these http requests (file_get_contents) to Servers B (Centos 5.2) and itself (Server A). The failures occur on attempts to Server B and A (itself), but only in one process at a time. (Server A is running several identical scripts/ processes -- even while one fails for a while, the others work -- that is, Servers B and A respond fine.) ...Rene -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

fine, so your not an OO noob. nonetheless your going have to get accustomed
and intimate with php's implementation which is what it is, it works, it's
consistent
but may not conform to all your expectations that you bring with you from other
languages ... it's a question of you adapting to php not the other way around.
if everyone who came to a language had that language implementation changed
to meet their expectations of what it should be doing and how said language
would quickly deteriorate into complete shite ... something noone would want to
use or develop.

yes, it tells you your doing something impossible.
For comparison: Python throws an exception in a comparable case,
allowing me to handle the error.
PHP != Python. python is pure OO. php is hybrid. you have to refactor your
code in different ways.
if your writing code that blindly makes use of a $user var that may or may not
be a valid object then you code is incorrect. not being able to trap Fatals is
essentially a non-issue as your code should be structured so that they cannot
occur.
there are a number of ways of dealing with the issue you have.
1. test the validity of the object
if ($user instanceof User) {
// do something
}
2. start using exceptions
try {
$user = UserGetter::get($id);
// do stuff with $user
} catch (UserException $e) {
// handle exception
}
// where UserGetter::get() is something like ...
class UserGetter {
static function get($id) {
$data = getUserDataFromDB($id)
if ($data)
return new User($data);
throw new UserException($id is invalid);
}
}
what this comes down to is this, python gives you exceptions free of
charge, php asks you to implement and throw them yourself ... this is
primarily the result of php's procedural legacy. ce la vie.
