RE: [PHP] Where's the error?
Thanks heaps for your help I really appreciate it. I have
made the changes you suggested but now I only get a blank screen.
These are more general hints on ways to solve the problem yourself.
function getmydate($hit)
{
$single = explode ( ,$hit);
return $single[3].$single[4];
}
What happens if you feed this function a designated string that you
explicitly provide. ie. Define $string to be a line of data you'd like
get date info on and then call the function. If you get the right thing
you know your function is doing what you expected.
$filename = (combined_log);
//fopen ($filename, r);
$fcontents = file($filename);
$limit = 1;
for ($i = 0; $i = $limit; $i++)
{
$line = $fcontents[i];
Try echo'ing $line to make sure you actually had something happen.
if (!empty($line))
{
$currentdate = getmydate($line);
echo $currentdate;
}
}
Work up to the whole solution if you find things not working like you'd
expect.
CYA, Dave

function getdate($hit)
There is already a PHP function named 'getdate()'; you'll need
another name here.
{
$single = explode ( ,$hit);
return $single[3].$single[4];
}
$filename = (combined_log);
fopen ($filename, r);
fopen() is meaningless here; you don't need to use it with file().
$fcontents = file($filename);
$limit = 1;
for ($i = 0; $i = $limit; $i++)
{
$line = $fcontents[i];
if ($line! = )
The above line should be:
if ($line != )
...but you may be better off with
if (!empty($line))
...or...
if (strlen($line) 0)
...or something like that.
Hope this helps,
Torben

Things to check:
o Put 'error_reporting(E_ALL);' as the first line of your script.
o Are you sure it's reading the file? Try 'print_r($fcontents);' after
the file() call.
That might get you a little farther. Otherwise post a few
representative lines from combined_log; otherwise we won't
have any real data to work with.

Re: [PHP] Where's the error?
I put 'print_r($fcontents);' in and it outputted the array of my log file
so I'm not sure what's wrong.
Here's a section of the log file. I'm trying to get the date of the first
access and the last access.

Re: [PHP] Where's the error?
Fixed !!! It should be $line = $fcontents[$i]; not $line = $fcontents[i]; Would you know the syntax to get the the last date? ie $lastdate = getmydate($line[(count($line))]); echo $lastdate; -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Where's the error?
that'll prob. be: $lastdate = getmydate($fcontents[count($fcontents)-1]); remember that array indexes start at 0, hence the -1 bit -Original Message- From: Josh Edwards [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 1:33 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Where's the error?
