I have various tables where a column is set to auto_increment in my
table structure. I have been using the following INSERT query format:
INSERT INTO table VALUES ('$auto_increment_variable','$variable_1',
'$variable_2')
and then in applications where I have needed to know the value of the
$auto_increment_variable I have immediately queried the table for
$variable_1 and $variable_2 and used
$reference = mysql_result($result,$i,reference);
to determine what numeric value was assigned.
Is there a way I may find out what value was assigned to the
$auto_increment_variable when the INSERT INTO query is issued?
Thanks.

[PHP] XML and special characters
I've been having a tough time with parsing XML files and special characters. I have attempted every applicable engine, last try SAX, to attempt at parsing a (rather large, 17.8mb) xml file. The problem I hit, is when it hits a UTF8 encoded character. I've attempted at decoded the file before it hits the parser, I've attempted even ENCODING it (god knows why that'd work, it didnt, lol). I've tried html_entities, etc. Nothing as such has worked. I've also tried simply removing the character, and low/behold, it worked! Darned thing... §µÖÕÔÓÒ Those are the characters so far that have caused me problems. I'd give the utf8 encoded equivalent, but I'm not sure of it off the top of my head. My code, varies so much that I'm not sure it'd be useful to type it out. The issue seems not to be with my code, as when I parse the file manually with a whole bunch of inefficient regex statements, everything works out peachy. The problem with that way again is, it eats system resources for a very long time (remember, 17mb file, and its all plain text? :)). Any suggestions as to how I could get around this seemingly impossible road block thats been placed by what seems to be the xml engines :O..

Re: [PHP] security of uploaded gif files
this is a little my fault. the example my friend showed me was a retracing of the example he saw in Pro PHP Security (p284). Basically, the short of the example is that a valid gif image could be uploaded with the extension .php and pass a getimagesize because it would have the necessary bytestream to think that it is a gif but that arbitrary php code could be appended at the end. To get around this, you just need to check for a valid file extension (.gif etc...) and mimetype. -jonathan On Jan 22, 2006, at 2:58 AM, Rory Browne wrote: I'd be a bit skeptical about the possibly of embedding PHP code inside a GIF file.

[PHP] Question about Thumbnailing, Watermarking, and Modifying images/video/flash dynamicly
I'm currently working on a media based site that serves up user submitted videos/images/flash games/etc. The owner wants an easy way to generate thumbnails for the content so that we don't have to depend on the user to submit one. We would also like to attach a small intro clip to the video content and possibly watermark it. I would like to automate all this and make it part of the content submission process. So what I'm looking for is: A way to generate a thumbnail for a video/image/flash movie A way to attach an intro clip to a video file. A way to Watermark a video or image file. I'm an experienced Linux user/admin/developer so i am interested in all possible options, be it a php/c library, a prebuilt php solution, or some command line tools which i can just control with php/cron jobs. Ive been looking for info on this subject for some time, i know other sites use it and that its possible, but most information I've found has been less than helpful. Thanks in advance.

I feel I have asked much of the owner of that service in creating a properly formed XML file (he was simply using pseudo xml that was, although nice and organized, unable to be parsed.. period, and took forever with pregs, at least now running through an XML generator the script itself takes less time on his part too, and hes thankful for that.) There are usernames listed in the file that use these special characters. Rather than have him have to well, go through and edit the 3 some odd users that are indexed... unless there is a way for the xml writer to do hex codes instead of unicode codes automatically... (and in that partake, is there any way to read them automatically with a parser?), then the idea is feasible. Other than that, I'm trying to find a solution to parse the existing file with the unicode data that causes a fatal error in the parser. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Devenix Live CD PHP4 and PHP5 project needs help
Hi, This seemed like the most sensible place to start to ask for help. I'm currently working on Devenix, a project based on the knoppix live cd. It will eventually be a complete php design and test studio on a live cd, carry around a memory stick and save everything onto it, basically enabling you to work on any computer anywhere and get straight back to work. My PROBLEM is this. I need to install php4 and php5, my reasons? I want to make it a studio capable of assisting with code migration and testing from 4 to 5. php4 is already installed via the debian apt source. I initially tried installing php5 by compiling from clean source, but only ran into problems. I am now working on modifying the php5 source tar from the apt-sources to install into a different dir to avoid conflict with php4. I added teh prefix line to the common configure line in the debian/rules file, but this screwed up the libapachemodule rebuild when i tried to rebuild the pacakge. Please any advice here would be greatly appreciated. And any people wishing to help on the project would be fantastic. There is no website yet, once this stumbling block is overcome, the ball will start rolling.

Re: [PHP] Controling buffer: php/smarty or apache?
The browsers use a whole bunch of different ways to figure out how it should render the page and if it should do it on the fly or wait until the page is fully downloaded. Assuming the content you are testing is the same for the static and dynamic pages you should probably start looking for little things that may be different. From what I've read, adding extra column information to the table tag and making sure the doctype is correct so you don't end up in quirks mode are both large factors.

[PHP] Re: problem with large arrays in php 4.3.2
Jesse Guardiani jesse at wingnet.net writes:
Hello,
I have an old version of php (4.3.2) that is acting rather strangely. I'm
searching two large arrays (approx 22,000 records in each) using
array_diff_key() from the PEAR PHP_Compat library:
$result = $args[0];
foreach ($args[0] as $key1 = $value1) {
for ($i = 1; $i !== $array_count; $i++) {
foreach ($args[$i] as $key2 = $value2) {
if ((string) $key1 === (string) $key2) {
unset($result[$key2]);
break 2;
}
}
}
}
And I'm getting aweful performance. I know it's a ton of records (22,000 *
22,000), but it shouldn't take 16 minutes on a P4 Xeon 2.4ghz!
Has anyone seen this before? Is this a bug? Or are my math skills lacking and
this is perfectly normal performance for the size of the data set?
Thanks!
I've conducted a little multi-language benchmark to see how other languages
compare to PHP with regard to associative arrays of this size:
http://www.guardiani.us/index.php/Hash_Array_Benchmark
The result in short? PHP is a pretty typical performer, IMO.
Thanks!
P.S. Please read the disclaimer carefully before submitting criticism. Unless
you have a neat optimization to share or code from another language to
contribute, I've probably heard it already and don't care. :)

Sounds similar to something I had going on. In Control Panel -
Administrative Tools - Services (I don't know of a shorter way to get
there), I had to right-click on the Apache service and under Log On -
check Allow service to interact with desktop.
I run run Php as an Apache module, but you may want to give that a try.

I suggest that you review the Unicode database for these characters and my suggestion is to use the code-points (HEX equivalences) for these characters.

I feel I have asked much of the owner of that service in creating a properly formed XML file (he was simply using pseudo xml that was, although nice and organized, unable to be parsed.. period, and took forever with pregs, at least now running through an XML generator the script itself takes less time on his part too, and hes thankful for that.) There are usernames listed in the file that use these special characters. Rather than have him have to well, go through and edit the 3 some odd users that are indexed... unless there is a way for the xml writer to do hex codes instead of unicode codes automatically...

[PHP] Houston PHP Users Group February Meeting Details
Hi, I'm sending the February meeting details to this mailing list in hopes of getting through to some Houston-based PHP developer that is not aware of our local Users Group. The group started out in Meetup.com, but recently we built our own website (http://houstonphp.org) to increase the interactivity level between our members and with that improve the participation in our monthly meetings. We meet at the University of Houston on the first Thursday of every month. We usually have members that do a few presentations each month, on a topic related to PHP and Web Development in general. If you are interested in joining us and do some networking with other professionals in the Houston area, please visit our website at: http://houstonphp.org Or our Meetup group page at: http://php.meetup.com/121/events/4827290/ Next month's details (Thursday, February 2nd, 7:00pm) are the following: Marc Mojica will give a presentation about quickly creating PHP-based web applications with Macromedia Dreamweaver. This presentation should be highly interesting to new PHP developers that want to get started quickly, and also to experienced developers that want to easen up the design/layout development of a web application. Joao Prado Maia will present about development with CVS, a revision control system used by most of today.s open source projects. I.ll go over the details of creating a CVS repository, importing modules and start tracking changes to your files. If you are interested, feel free to start reading Open Source Development with CVS, a free book available online. We will also have our usual Tips Tricks session at the end of the meeting, with good tips about interesting PHP components, MySQL tools, Firefox extensions, AJAX/JavaScript libraries and other web development related topics. The meeting location and driving directions (with a easy to follow map) are available at the following URL: http://houstonphp.org/?page_id=4 Hope to see you all in there!
