I'm trying to create the following array:
$host_info = array(
"hostname" => "localhost"
"log" => "rocketbox_db.log"
"username" => $username
"password" => $password
"database" => "rocketbox"
"table" => $table
);
however when I try and access the document, I get the following error:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `')'' in
/usr/home/kidlinux/htdocs/rocketbox/admin/index.php on line 26
line 26 is \* "log" => "rocketbox_db.log" *\ in the array code I
pasted above. This isn't very far into my script, and I'm sure I havn't
missed anything like a ) in my code anywhere before that array()
declaration. I've gone over my code several times. According to the
documentation (or my interpretation of it) that array should be correct.
One other thing I'm unsure of that doesn't seem to be covered in the
documentation is referring to variables in an array, like \* "username" =>
$username *\ where $username is a variable submitted by an html form via
the post method. Should that work?? And what about referring to a function
in an array such as the following:
$value = array(
"date" => $date = strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
"title" => $info_title
"dept" => $info_dept
"info" => $info
);
Is that valid? Can i just do \* "date" => strftime('%Y-%m-%d') *\ ??
Thanks for your help.
Dude, you need commas between your array items.

Your array elements need to be delimited by commas:
$host_info = array(
"hostname" => "localhost",
"log" => "rocketbox_db.log",
"username" => $username,
"password" => $password,
"database" => "rocketbox",
"table" => $table

Good point but I wouldn't characterize a launguage's or function's
expectation that you use correct syntax as a problem.
I believe foreach also works on a copy basis, not a pointer or reference. So
if you try and alter the array you are foreach'ing it won't work as
expected.
For instance this:
$array = array("var1", "var2", "var3");
foreach ($array as $val)
{
if ($val == "var2")
{
$val = "changed2";
}
}
print_r($array);
Will show you that no change to $array has occurred.
It's basically the same as list(), but it's worth noting.
Other than backwards compliance, I've never used the list/each way of doing
it. Never really had a reason too...I think it basically just comes down to
user preference.

Hello Joe,
Wednesday, April 11, 2001, 10:49:31 PM, you wrote:

JS> array afterwards, but foreach() you don't. Also foreach() appears to be quite

You don't need to reset() the array, You also don't need list() and
each(), which impose additional overhead. You put the array loop to the foreach()
implementation, which is in C, instead of implementing it with PHP with while(),
list() and each().
That must be a lot faster.
JS> My main question is there ANY difference in how these two loop through the
JS> array.
The main difference is that foreach() works with the array's copy. It
works with the same data (using reference counts) while the initial array hasn't
changed . But if you change the array, the real copy will be created,
and you won't see the changes within the foreach() loop - it will
operate with the copy of the initial array (unchanged).
So, foreach() should be used if you don't change the array in the
loop. If you do, use while().
E.g:
<?php
$a = array (1, 2, 3);
print "foreach:\n";
foreach ($a as $k => $v) {
if (!$k) unset($a[1]);
print "$v\n";
}
print "while:\n";
while (list ($k, $v) = each ($a)) {
print "$v\n";
}
?>
will output:
foreach:
1
2 ---> it should not, the value has already been unset!
3
while:
1
3

D'oh, I need to be asleep. Sorry for shooting blanks. :)
Anyway, I was just going to say that I wanted this in PHP3 for a long
time (foreach()), then it arrived, and we're still using PHP3 for
various reasons (don't ask) and PHP3 doesn't have foreach(). :(

It's quite a sad story.

you can't nest foreach as you should be able to. Ecah foreach is supposed to
have it's own pointer in the array, but it doesn't ... this is a known bug.

Hello,
Does anyone have ideas about this kind of scenario?
1) Load a php page, based on whether a user is currently
authenticated either:
a) if not authenticated: pop up a new browser window
or
b) if already authenticated, proceed
2) Based on the login id of the individual that either
failed to login or succeeded, you either:
a) close the little popup window and
load a user information page from a database
on the original page.
or
b) close the little popup window and
load an error message up on the original page.
The average gray generic "enter user name and password" in
IE or Netscape isn't good enough because the login page
needs to have multiple options that are dynamically generated
as well (login.php would be the contents of a popup)
I know how to do popups with Javascript, but what I want is
to use purely PHP. Is there a way to spawn a browser window
from a server-side action?
Thanks
Dan

I'm afraid you'll have you use Javascript. The only way to make a new window
is to use window.open, or to have someone click a link with the target of
_blank.
So with window.open and window.close, I think you can accomplish all you'd
like to.
But if someone turns off java, none of it will work. So you'll probably want
to allow some other way of logging in. I know many places (game sites are
especially guilty of this) that require javascript just to login, even
though nothing in the site even uses javascript!
I really do hate that.

I'm guessing it's either for a Quiz script or an Auction script.
If you want to make it easy on yourself, use a database to store the
starting time (when the timer "starts") and what time the test/auction
should end. When someome makes a submission, get the time stored in the
database and see if the person's submission is within the timelimit (check
if the current time is less than the finish time).
If the current time is within 2 minutes of the ending time, then take the
ending time, add 5 minutes to it, and then store it.
If you try to do this all in a sort of real-time, you're only making it hard
on yourself and it's more or less impossible to do (without killing yourself
in resources, anyway).
Doing it with a database, once you get it working in the first place, may
even be considered trivial. You may be pleasantly surprised...unless you
can't use a database :)

Ctrl - G = relpy directly to newsgroup, in turn gets posted to the mailing

On another note, good post, I see alot of people posting 'new' threads by

I've been working on a way to strip invalid characters from user input with
little or no need to rip the hair out of my head, and I learned some
interesting things in the process.
For one thing, hair really is stuck in there good, man.
But the important thing is how to increase your global namespace, make
debugging and refining user-input easier, make your scripts more readable
(arguably), and maybe even make your scripts a little more secure in the
process.
And all it requires is one single little line being present in either an
included file, or at the top of your script.
*basks in the beauty of the variable variable*
And that line is (actually it's two lines, but one is a comment to make
things easier on people who read your code):
// To refer to variables submitted via GET or POST use: ${$f}["
$f = 'HTTP_' . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REQUEST_METHOD"] . '_VARS';
Now, if someone submits a form with the field "email", you refer to it in
your code as:
${$f}["email"]
It works if it was submitted via POST or GET, so you never have to worry
about needing one feature or the other. And if you do want to lock it in to
POST only, you just do:
$f = 'HTTP_POST_VARS';
...right at the top of the script where you want to lock it in. It
effectively reduces having to type $HTTP_POST_VARS to ${$f} (hard to type at
first, I know).
And now you can instantly know what variable is suppose to be user
submitted, and what isn't. And you can now safely turn off register.globals
in your .ini file, or run your script in a place where register.globals is
off (track_vars must be enabled, but I don't know anyone who actually turns
it off, and it's always enabled in version 4.0.3+).
The reason for not just using $email to refer to the "email" field is
something I recently found out.
If you change the value of $HTTP_POST_VARS["email"], it will not change the
value of $email! Doh! So my great big script which flawlessly strips all
invalid characters from POST, COOKIE, and GET global variables did squat.
I've fallen in love with variable variables, I admit it. Oh how I love them
so...
...anyway, I just thought some of you might benefit from my discovery of
variable variables using REQUEST_METHOD, since I've never actually seen it
used in any scripts (I actually got the idea from "Decae", a programmer at
Evernight...I have no idea when he figured it out). So I hope it helps some
of you out.
Enjoy!

Should be working on something...
...but forgot what it was.
I am writing a PHP script that operates on a MySQL database that uses the
e-mail address as the primary key. If the e-mail doesn't exist in the database
(when a form is submitted), I want to insert a new record. If it does, I want
to update the existing record.
How can I make the query that checks if the e-mail exists case-insensitive? I
want to avoid users creating another record if they type in their e-mail in a
different case.
Thanks!

I had a similar question about case-sensitivity, and I was told that MySQL
is automatically case-insensitive! But it depends on your version of MySQL.
Go to the mysql manual and look at chapter 20.16 "Case sensitivity in
searches".
In the newest versions of MySQL, all searches are case-insensitive by
default. To make them case-sensitive however, is a royal pain in the arse.

I was looking at marc.theaimsgroup.com listing of message archives (which is
how I finally found the address to this newsgroup in the firstplace) to find
the MySQL group, however I noticed that the one at mysql.com is just a
"mailing list". (I prefer to preserve my inbox for personal messages and
spam that slips by my filters ;)
Are there any good listings of topic-grouped "newsgroups" (like this one)
for MySQL, javascript, C, etc?
I'd like a newsgroup to ask my non-PHP questions where people expect non-PHP
questions :)
Thanks in advance!

Hi Plutarck,
The 'mailing list' at MySQL _is_ very much like this one and is also very

Most PostgreSQL functions are wrapper functions for libpq. Reading documents
about libpq will help.
Answer to your question is, it does not read all data into memory. I think most
DB doesn't do that also.
Data will be buffered in PostgreSQL backend, size is depends on your
configuration.
I'm not sure if it buffers on client side.

Apologies in advance if this has been discussed before or is a simple
fubar on my part. I can only search through the archives for so
long... :-)
Experiencing a frustrating problem on this end with slashes being added to
my template files. Here are the details:
Using PHP on a webhost that compiled php as a cgi in my www/cgi-bin
directory.
I have all HTML files in templates/filename.tpl and all PHP files in
includes/filename.inc, this includes the template.inc file from PHPLib.
I have a file called 'script' with the following in it:
<?php
require('includes/Directory.inc');
include('includes/Header.inc');
// Now parse a second template:
$t->set_file("MainHandle","MainGadget.tpl");
// wholePage.ihtml has "{MyOutput}" in it
$vari= $t->parse("MyFinalOutput","MainHandle");
// All {MyOutput}'s get replaced
$t->p("MyFinalOutput");
// output the value of MyFinalOutput
/*eval( "?>".$vari );*/
include('includes/Footer.inc');
?>
include/Directory.inc has the following in it:
<?php
include('includes/Template.inc');
$url_array=explode("/",$REQUEST_URI);
$url_cat=$url_array[3];
$url_grp=$url_array[4];
$url_misc=$url_array[5];
$t = new Template("/www/hostname/ocean/templates/");
$title = "name";
if($url_misc == 'misc') {
$Handle='MiscHandle';
$Template='MiscGadget.tpl';
}
elseif ($url_grp == 'tanks') {
$Handle='TankHandle';
$Template='TankGadget.tpl';
}
elseif ($url_cat == 'psupply') {
// These three lines are the same as the first example:
$Handle='PowerHandle';
$Template='PowerGadget.tpl';
}
elseif ($url_cat == 'purpose') {
$Handle='PurposeHandle';
$Template='PurposeGadget.tpl';
} else {
$Handle='IntroHandle';
$Template='IntroGadget.tpl';
}
$t->set_file("$Handle","$Template");
$t->set_var("name",$title);
$t->parse("MyOutput","$Handle");
?>
Now, this setup work without a hitch on my personal development server
where PHP is loaded as a module in Apache. The file called via the
'script' above is loaded into the MainGadget.tpl template and displayed
without a problem. Everything, including javascript, works great.
Now, I moved this code to the providers server, where the only difference
I can tell is php works as a cgi , and I get output from the HTML files
with slashes added to the HTML, such as:
<a href=\'about.php\'
onMouseOut=\'MM_swapImgRestore()\"
onMouseOver=\"MM_swapImage(\'about\',\'\',\'graphics/toolsbar3_01.gif\',1)\"><img
name=\"about\" border=\"0\" src=\"graphics/toolsbar_01.gif\" width=\"105\"
height=\"35\"></a>
<a href=\'contact.php\' onMouseOut=\'MM_swapImgRestore()\'
onMouseOver=\'MM_swapImage(\'contact\',\'\',\'graphics/toolsbar3_02.gif\',1)\"><img
name=\"contact\" border=\"0\" src=\"graphics/toolsbar_02.gif\" width=\"96\"
height=\"35\"></a>
Everything else is output just fine. The only HTML with this in it is the
{MyOutput} files from templates directory (.tpl files). I am not very
familiar with PHPLib but imagine there is some other not so subtle item I
am missing since things work great on my linux/apache/php4 server.
Any ideas? I have tried using stripslashes() in the 'script' above but get
errors. Is there something unique to the php cgi I am missing? Something
else?
Any all help is greaty appreciated!!
Thanks,
//frank
I'm getting this: "Warning: error opening in /path/to/file.php on line 32"
Here's what I want to do, maybe I'm approaching it incorrectly? I need to
collect multiple files via a form and upload them via FTP (can't use HTTP
because I'm uploading to a different server). I collect them just fine, but
my process script connects, changes directories, makes a new directory to
insert the files into and changes to that new directory, but it fails on the
ftp_put() call. Here is the code. I've also tried to simplify it to just
one file with no success. I think I'm just missing something about the
ftp_put function.
<PRE>
for ($i=1; $i<=$num_spots; $i++) {
$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, "$new_file[$i]", "$new_file[$i]",
FTP_BINARY);
if (!$upload)
echo "FTP upload for '$new_title[$i]' has failed!<BR>";
else
echo "Uploaded '$new_title[$i]' to '$__ftphost__' as
'$new_file[$i]'.<BR>";
}
</PRE>
Thanks for your help.

I have called from html a php form and passwd a value, but how can I
from PHP pass the value to an html for, without using php ?
Scenario
After searching a db, a list of valid part numbers gets displayd from
the Mysql db, the client picks part#2 and then that click would call the
html form which needs the value being passed to it, in this case part_no
then I would take other input information and pass all if it along with
part_no to a cgi script.
Can someone give me a good sample ?
Thanks !

I'm just guessing since I can't access the PHP manual and since I don't know
what program you're running here -- but perhaps "someProgram" is outputting
to stderr by mistake. That's my only guess.

the file gets named echo $agentcodeCyberTrac.ctr, now I want a real value in

You can use the same code as you typed but use double-quotes instead of
single-quotes:
$fp=fopen("echo $agentcode' .'CyberTrac.ctr", "w");

Why the H*ll would you wanna use echo there?!?!?!
Just fopen($agentcode."CyberTrac.ctr", "w"); works (like someone
already mentioned before), so why would you use some _UGLY_
construction with echo???

another newbie programmer question...
is it possible to output the results of an array loop into a variable, or
directly into an SQL call?
Obviously the code below is impossible, but illustrates what I want to do:
//declare the array
$info_request = array (1 =>
"firstname","lastname","email","howfound","optin","comments","request_type","request_bucket","date");
//output the array loop results to a variable
$array_results = foreach ($info_request As $value) { print "$value,"; }
//place the output variable into an SQL call (therefore making it
dynamic):
INSERT INTO $tablename ($array_results)
...
thanks!

How about:
<?php
$info = array (
"firstname","lastname","email","howfound","optin",
"comments","request_type","request_bucket","date"
);
while(list($idx,$value) = each($info))
{
$results .= ($idx == (sizeof($info) - 1) ? "'$value'" : "'$value',");
}
/* INSERT INTO foo ($results) */
?>

^^^^
Sorry, I guess this would be more complete:
<?php
$tablename = 'foo';
$info = array(0 => array('billy bob','joe','email','yahoo','sort
of','foo','firm','large','date'),
1 => array('james
j','frank','email','google','no','bar','soft','small','date'));
while(list(,$array) = each($info))
{
$results = 'INSERT INTO $tablename VALUES(';
while(list($idx,$value) = each($array))
{
$results .= ($idx == (sizeof($array) - 1) ? "'$value'" : "'$value',");
}
$results .= ')';
print "$results\n"; /* INSERT here. */
}
?>
I guess it could be made into a function($info,$table) -- whatever,
but you'd need error checking a returns on the inserts.

Hi All,
I'm in the middle of crisis. I need to meet the deadline tomorrow, and
tonight the www.php.net seems to be down.
Anyone know any mirror site of www.php.net?
I need function reference and manual only, and I have been always totally
dependence on www.php.net. So, if anyone can tell me any mirror site of
www.php.net so that I can continue my work, that would be really-really great.
Thanks a lot

If that doesn't fly, try the au mirror:

Subject: [PHP] HELP with (Fatal Error: Call to a member function on a
non-object)
Hi guys,
Below is the error message that I am receiving, and 3 or 4 lines around
the code that seems to be causing the issue. Lines are numbered so it gives
you a good idea of line 183. What I need to know, is in my context, what is
the error saying, and if there is a variable (or function or class) to
define, how can I tell which one it is?
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in
/home/httpd/www/g0thic/cawood_a4/edit_f.php on line 183
178- if($seditFileErr == "")
179- {
180- // Load primary key and form parameters
181- $fldf_id = get_param("f_id");
182- $fldu_id = get_param("u_id");
183- $tpl->set_var("Trn_u_id", get_param("u_id"));
184- $pf_id = get_param("f_id");
185- $tpl->set_var("editFileError", "");
186- }
Get_param is a function to get the variable "u_id" that would have been sent
back with the page url (e.g.: page.php?u_id=3993)
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Sean

mydb.txt
username:password:email:fullname:phone
what are the appropriate ways to read the mydb.txt for authentication
purposes?
use the FILE() or FREAD? any ideas about what functions should i use to
manipulate this file?
if i use file() and mydb.txt was 9mb will the array be able to hold the
result?

Hi,
I have PHP 4.0 with IIS on Win2K and I think compiled everything right.
I'm not sure how this works on Win32, but on unix it's fine. It's the mail()
function.
ex. mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]","My Subject","My Test");
and it returns: Warning: Server Error in C:\PHP/index.php on line 4
ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED...
-Terence
in PHP.ini
you have to specify the outgoing mail server:
[mail function]
SMTP= smtp.blah.com ; for Win32 only
sendmail_from= [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; for Win32 only
;sendmail_path=;for unix only, may supply arguments as well (default is
'sendmail -t -i')

Hi
Firstly, you need to add your smtp server in php.ini under the [mail
function] heading
ie.
SMTP = smtp.mydomain.com
and secondly your connection to this needs to be open.
I've had php report errors before depending on whether the mail server likes
\r or \n or neither.
But if you're just sending the one liner like above this obviously rules
that out.

Hi Peter
I use this function in one of my scripts. Maybe you can get a few ideas from
it.
function WriteRadio ($FieldNo, $NOptions, $OptionValue, $Option,
$SelectedValue, $NullValue) {
/*
The Radio function writes a group of HTML INPUT radio buttons.
$OptionValue = input value
$Option = the option wording in the radio button group
$SelectedValue = the option value that is currently checked
$NullValue = the first option is empty if true (returns all
records for queries)
*/
if ($NullValue) {
echo "<INPUT type='radio' value='' name='f[".$FieldNo."]'>
N/A";
}
for ($i = 0; $i <= $NOptions[$FieldNo]; $i++) {
if ($OptionValue[$FieldNo][$i] == $SelectedValue) {
echo "<INPUT type='radio'
value='".$OptionValue[$FieldNo][$i]."' name='f[".$FieldNo."]' checked>
".$Option[$FieldNo][$i];
} else {

hiya,
I have a script that repeats a form x number of times depending on how many

it sees every radio button on the page as the ONE group when really it's x
number of groups (again depending on how many records there are)
How can i differ between raido groups with out having to get the name
changed for every record after the 1st one?

Regards,
Harshdeep S Jawanda.
I think 8 USD a month is good value, I pay 10 USD now on phpwebhosting.com
Their admin service is down a lot, speed is acceptable. However, they
had their server crashed once, all email accounts were deleted. They
apparently
had problems with backup. I recreated the email addresses since my business
depends on it. After I recreated the email accounts they managed to delete
the
accounts _again_ by apparently trying to restore some ancient backup or
something.
My business was closed then for a week, I was out of the country so all
emails
sent to my addresses kept bouncing for a week. I guess it cost me revenue, I
am
still with that same hosting provider, didn't take the effort in moving my 2
domains
.... sigh ....

I didn't mean adding ssl is a patch. I know how to apply patches to

I'd say *not* using include_once () leads to worse design, because it
means that for every module you have to know (a) where it is included
from and (b) what is included by the files it is included from.
Sounds complicated because it *is* complicated.
It's much better to let each module include_once() everything it depends
on.

I am trying to make a simple HTML menu system. I am having problems
displaying
menu links under the correct submenu from a loop. I want to be able to
change web menus on the fly.
I have a database with two tables. One table holds menu and sub menu
headings and the other table holds the contents of each submenu (the
actual menu links and
names). I need to display the menu title and then the sub menu title
from table 1 and
then display the submenu contents or links from table 2 and then display
the next set
of links under the correct submenu
Example output would look like this:
Say person clicks on Admin menu which is already displayed then the
networking
submenu heading will display along with the submenu links:
Example: Admin (main menu title from db
table 1)
Networking (submenu title , from
db table 1
ping (Link to ping
from db table 2)
traceroute (Link to ping from
db table 2)
nsloopup etc........
I don't know how to go about outputing the links under the correct
submenu. The
main menu is no problem. I am thinking I would need a loop within a
loop.
The query I use: $query = "SELECT * FROM menutable, elementstable WHERE
menutable.menutable_id = elementstable.menuid AND menutable.mainmenu =
'Admin' ";
$result = mysql_db_query("menus", $query);
This loop simply assigns variables and prints out all output under the
main menu
called Admin. The problem is how do I display
while ($r = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
// start menu table (table holds main menu/sub menu headings
$menutable_id = $r["menutable_id"];
$menunumber = $r["menunumber"];
$mainmenu = $r["mainmenu"];
$submenu = $r["submenu"];
// start elements table (table that holds the links and names of each
link)
// element_id references menu table
$element_id = $r["element_id"];
$element = $r["element"];
$url = $r["url"];
$menuid = $r["menuid"];
// next display data this is wrong cause it displays 1 submenu and 1
link looping
?>
<TD><? echo "$submenu"; ?></TD>
<TD><a href="<? echo "$url"; ?> "> <? echo "$element"; ?></a> </TD>
<?
// this doesn't work

?????
Anyway,
The only way PHP can make Word open on a clients machine is if a word
document is sent to the client, or the clients browser believes that is
receiving a word document.
You may be able to open word and insert text client side by using activex or
vbscript but PHP is server side and cannot spawn Word on a clients machine
using COM.
You would have to use COM server side to create the document the send it to
the browser
NB. This requires word to be installed server side.

On my first page I have a form that posts a value to page2 where it gets
registered in a session. Works like a charm...
When I try to do this again, but send another value, the session doesn´t
update the new value.
Why?
PAGE 1 --->
<form action="page2.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="value" size="30">
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>
PAGE 2 --->
<?
session_start();
session_register("value");
?>
Thanks,
// Tobias
What happens is when you use session_start(), all variables in the session
become initialized to the values they have previously been given.
So when you call session_start the second time, a variable named $value is
created with the value it was given earlier.
The problem is, it over-writes the variable $value which was submitted in
the form.
The way to get around this is to rename your form to "form_value". Then
right after you register value in your session, insert this:
$value = $form_value;
It should work without error.

Hey there guys;
I have been going hard at this problem for a while now, but at the end of
the day, I always get the same error. Unfortunately I have a deadline that I
have to meet :(
k, here is the error (I am sure you have all seen this one before):
Warning: Unable to create '/home/httpd/www/g0thic/cawood_files/email.html':
No such file or directory in /home/httpd/www/g0thic/cawood/edit_f.php on
line 31
now, I have done some extensive checking, and this is the same script /html
file used to upload the file, the interesting part is that the file is in
the /tmp/ directory before and after upload. I am running the script to list
the contents of the /tmp directory BEFORE AND AFTER attempting the copy
routine:
copy($f_loc,$destination.''.$f_loc_name);
Contents of $destination = /home/httpd/www/g0thic/cawood_files/
the entire copy string looks like this (of course this is after the
variables have been populated):
/tmp/phpE85ySu,/home/httpd/www/g0thic/cawood_files/email.html
Ok, you will probably ask what the perms of ./cawood_files/ is, I have
chmod'd them to 777, the perms of /tmp are also @ 777.
I know the destination is created correctly, because this is the string I am
using:
$destination = "$DOCUMENT_ROOT/cawood_files/";
and ./cawood_files/ is a valid directory, I used the Apache $DOCUMENT_ROOT
variable to provide consistency if I ever changed the location of the
/cawood_files directory.
Below are just a few extras:
//BEGIN UPLOAD FILE SEQUENCE
global $fldf_loc;
global $destination;
//LISTING DIR BEFORE COPY
$handle=opendir('/tmp/');
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != "xml-edifact" && $file !=
".qmail-qread" && $file != ".font-unix" && $file != ".esd" && $file !=
".qmail-qstat") {
echo "$file<BR>";
}
}
closedir($handle);
//COPY FILE
copy($f_loc,$destination.''.$f_loc_name);
//LISTING DIR AFTER COPY (using different variables just to make sure)
$extra_handle=opendir('/tmp/');
while ($extra_file = readdir($handle)) {
if ($extra_file != "." && $extra_file != ".." && $extra_file !=
"xml-edifact" && $extra_file != ".qmail-qread" && $extra_file !=
".font-unix" && $extra_file != ".esd" && $extra_file != ".qmail-qstat") {
echo "$extra_file<BR>";
}
}
closedir($handle);
//ECHO COPY PARAMETERS
echo "<BR>$f_loc,$destination$f_loc_name<BR>";
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Hi
I'm implementing a simple keyword search.
I want the results to be displayed with the keywords highlighted.
I am currently using this to highlight the keywords
str_replace($string,"<b>$string</b>",$field);
If I search for php, it will find PHP, PhP etc... but using the above only
php will will be highlighted, not PHP.
I've tried eregi_replace but I could only get that to change the case and
highlight that ie. PHP would become php.
Can anyone point me in the direction of how to highlight the string
regardless of case but keep the case for the match.
TIA
M@
You'll probably want to use preg_replace.
For instance:
$string = "/(PHP)/i";
$target = "Please highlight PhP for me.";
echo $target, '<br>';
$target = preg_replace($string, "<b>\\1</b>", $target);
echo $target, '<br>';
\\1 is whatever was found in the first parentheses(sp).

Sorry for vague subject, only so many things you can put in there ...
I'm looking for someone way, in PHP4, to take a "form/template" for a
letter on the server side, pass it to the client, let them edit it
(including markup tags like bold and underline) and then pass it back to
the server ...
It has to be relatively transparent to the end user ... I don't want to
have to teach them to put <B></B> tags around where they want bold ...
I'm not particular on editor ... right now, if I have to force the client
to install StarOffice for commonality across platforms, I'll do that and
expand from that ... but some way of 'click here, download doc to
computer, open up file with <insert editor of choice>, save back to server
(if possible)' ...
Ideas?
thanks ...

You can let the users edit online a form which returns html code, it is
called
dhtmled, you can find it on msdn.microsoft.com
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/edit/default.asp
If you play with it a bit, you will find a way to upload a html doc to the
client, let him edit and send it back.
Regards,
D.

Ick...I'd say it's a good idea, but it's going to be a bi...tter fight with
technology.
First, you have to have some application do the loading/unloading. PHP can't
do that, of course.
But, you could use some form of java...but you'd have to get fancy. Or you
could just use file upload in a form, which is easier.
If you do that, you need only parse out the file.
The best way to do that is pick a text format that does what you want it to
do, and is universal across platforms. You don't even need to worry about
the editor they use, as long as it's saved in the proper format.
I reccomend you use either a word document, or perhaps Rich Text Format is
best (rtf).
Then you just have to figure out how text is saved in that format, and
viola. You just use PHP to go from there...
...I'm sure it's easier said than done, and I have absolutely no clue how
the content of rtf files is different from txt (but I'd love to know!), but
I can see it being very possible if you pick only a few standard file
formats, and use the file upload features.
It's actually a very good idea. I'm surprised no one has done it...which
should probably worry you ;)

I have a php script which is like a modified shopping cart.
It starts with a search that calls a perl script ( I know, but it's the only
way I can include certain proprietary functionality I need). This returns a
results set of documents that can be either downloaded or requested
depending on permissions.
If you click to request a document a php script request.php is called it is
sort of like a cart script, and uses phplib sessions and db_oci8.
The strange problem I am having is this:
If it is the first time you have reqeusted this script since last opening
your browser, you will get a 404, if you hit back/forward or refresh the
script works fine as if nothing ever happened. You will not get this error
again as long as you do not close and reopen your browser. Any ideas?
That sounds like a problem with the way you handle sessions.
What happens is your program tries to start a session, but the page isn't
sent if a session isn't started. It still shouldn't reply with a 404
though...search your script for header and see if you send any.
Once someone has the session, then the page will load correctly.
Muck through your php code and see if there are any conditions or loops
which require a session to be running.
Still, that shouldn't happen and it's probably one of those bugs that you
can't figure out why they happen, or what causes them, but after tinkering
around suddenly everything works.
One thing to try, if it's available, is use the ob_* functions as a
debugger. Stick an obstart at the begining and a ob_end_flush at the end,
and see if the problem disappears magically.
Odd what sometimes fixes things...
