Thanks for replying!

You can do it per day, per month, per year, per 28 days, per PMS cycle,
per anything you want provided you have the data to do it.

Hello community,
I have been working with alot of IPv6 lately.
Now i was wondering of what there might be the best way to validate an IPv6
address.
Couldn't think of any working regexp, since even ::1 or :: is valid
(localhost), so i tried it the following way:
?php
//RFC 4291
//http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291
function validate_ipv6($value) {
if (substr_count($value, :) 2) return false; // has to contain : at
least twice like in ::1 or 1234::abcd
if (substr_count($value, ::) 1) return false; // only 1 double colon
allowed
$groups = explode(':', $value);
$num_groups = count($groups);
if (($num_groups 8) || ($num_groups 3)) return false; // 3-8 groups of
0-4 digits (1 group has to be at leas 1 digit)
$empty_groups = 0;
foreach ($groups as $group) {
$group = trim($group);
if (!empty($group) !(is_numeric($group) ($group == 0))) {
if (!preg_match('#([a-fA-F0-9]{0,4})#', $group)) return false;
} else ++$empty_groups;
}
return ($empty_groups $num_groups) ? true : false; // the unspecified
address :: is not valid in this case
}
var_dump(validate_ipv6(::)); // false (wanted result)
var_dump(validate_ipv6(::1)); // true
var_dump(validate_ipv6(1234::abcd)); // true
var_dump(validate_ipv6(2001:DB8:0:0:8:800:200C:417A)); // true
var_dump(validate_ipv6(0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1)); // true
var_dump(validate_ipv6(0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0)); // false (wanted result)
var_dump(validate_ipv6(:::::::)); // false
(wanted result)
var_dump(validate_ipv6(2001:0DB8::CD30::::)); // true
var_dump(validate_ipv6(FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:101)); // true
var_dump(validate_ipv6(bananas)); // false
var_dump(validate_ipv6(1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8:9)); // false
?
anybody with better ideas?

[PHP] case and accent - insensitive regular expression?
Hi,
I have a php page that asks user for a key ( or a list of keys ) and
then shows a list of items matching the query.
every item in the list shows its data, and the list of keys it has ( a
list of comma-separated words )
I would like to higlight, in the list of keys shown for every item,
the words matching the query,
this can be easily achieved with a search and replace, for every
search word, i search it in the key list and replace it adding a style
tag to higlight it such as for example to have it in red color:
if ( @stripos($keylist,$keysearch!== false ) {
$keylist = str_ireplace($keysearch,'span style=color: #FF'.
$keysearch.'/span',$keylist);
}
but i have some problem with accented characters:
i have mysql with character encoding utf8, and all the php pages are
declared as utf8
mysql in configured to perform queries in a case and accent
insensitive way.
this mean that if you search for the word 'cafe', you have returned
rows that contains in the keyword list 'cafe', but also 'café' with
the accent. ( I think it has to do with 'collation' settings, but I'm
not investigating at the moment because it is OK for me the way it
works ).
now my problem is to find a way ( I imagine with some kind of regular
expression ) to achieve in php a search and replace accent-
insensitive, so that i can find the word 'cafe' in a string also if it
is 'café', or 'CAFÉ', or 'CAFE', and vice-versa.
hope the problem is clear and well-explained in english,
thank you for any tip,
Giulio

Giulio:
Three things:
1. Your English is fine.
2. Try using mb_ereg_replace()
http://www.php.net/mb_ereg_replace
Place the accents you want to change in that and
change them to whatever you want.
3. Change:
span style=color: #FF'.$keysearch.'/span'
to
span class=keysearch'.$keysearch.'/span'
and add
.keysearch
{
color: #FF;
}
to your css.
Cheers,
tedd

Re: [PHP] IPv6 validation
It will still take some time until every provider has PHP5 running, at least
where I am from. I have many customers who want me to get their sites
running on some cheap webspace they got along with their internet
connection. Then you have to tell them it won't work because of some problem
with the versions. I would love to write code for PHP5+ only.

Cheers (I guess), tedd We had an article in our local paper yesterday about the guy that made and 'starred' in the video that Daniel posted about here a couple of weeks ago (Matt of 'Where in the World is Matt', fame). Seems his father didn't think he was mature enough to be able to benefit from college, and he was advised to do some traveling instead. That apparently led to an early version of the current 15-minutes-of-fame video. When I read that, I thought, not everybody is buying into the college degree to 'success' route. But that I'm sure is the exception rather than the rule. I think the bigger problem, for education and the USA at least, is that there are few middle-class jobs to be prepared for, despite what you might learn in school. Learning for the sake of learning is wonderful, and yes, I think it does benefit society by broadening one's perspective, but as a path to financial success, defined here as being able to support yourself and raise a family, I agree that a college degree is a dicey undertaking for the expense. (And to be clear, I've completed 10 years of post high school education.) --David.
[PHP] Passing arguments as they are received to another function
Hello, I'm trying to implement a few simple wrappers for some PHP functions.
Here's an example of what I'm trying to do:
function myWrapper() {
return defaultPhpFunction(func_get_args());
}
The example above is broken since I'm just passing an array to the original
function.
The only way to achieve the desired result that I've found is something like
this:
function myWrapper() {
$argsNumber = func_num_args();
if ($argsNumber == 1) {
return defaultPhpFunction(func_get_arg(0));
}
elseif ($argsNumber == 2) {
return defaultPhpFunction(func_get_arg(0), func_get_arg(1));
}
// ...
// ...
// ...
}
Since the above code is clumsy to say the least any advice would be welcome.
Thanks for your time!

Thank you very much for your suggestion.
I've looked into it but I guess this doesn't work with what I'm trying to
do, although what you suggested should indeed work perfectly with my
previous example.
Here's a snippet from the code that I'm having problems with:
class MainDatabase {
private static $mainDatabase = NULL;
private static $statement = NULL;
//...
//...
//...
public static function prepare($query) {
self::$mainDatabase-beginTransaction();
self::$statement = self::$mainDatabase-prepare($query);
}
public static function bindParam() {
self::$statement-call_user_func_array(array('PDOStatement','bindParam'),func_get_args());
// Results in:
// PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method
PDOStatement::call_user_func_array() ...
// I've also tried with
call_user_func_array('PDOStatement::fetchAll',func_get_args());
// but no luck, same error.
}
//...
//...
//...
}
I thought that a solution for the previous example would work in this
scenario too, but I guess this isn't the case.
Any further suggestions would be very welcome, thanks.
Re: [PHP] Passing arguments as they are received to another function
On the line where you have
self::$statement-call_user_func_array(array('PDOStatement','bindParam'),func_get_args());
try this
call_user_func_array(array(self::$statement,'bindParam'),func_get_args());
see if that works...?

Here's a snippet from the code that I'm having problems with:
class MainDatabase {
private static $mainDatabase = NULL;
private static $statement = NULL;
//...
//...
//...
public static function prepare($query) {
self::$mainDatabase-beginTransaction();
self::$statement = self::$mainDatabase-prepare($query);
}
public static function bindParam() {
self::$statement-call_user_func_array(array('PDOStatement','bindParam'),func_get_args());
// Results in:
// PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method
PDOStatement::call_user_func_array() ...
// I've also tried with
call_user_func_array('PDOStatement::fetchAll',func_get_args());
// but no luck, same error.
}
//...
//...
//...
}
I thought that a solution for the previous example would work in this
scenario too, but I guess this isn't the case.
Any further suggestions would be very welcome, thanks.

On the line where you have
self::$statement-call_user_func_array(array('PDOStatement','bindParam'),func_get_args());
try this
call_user_func_array(array(self::$statement,'bindParam'),func_get_args());
see if that works...?
Thanks, this is working fine. I only had to make the following adjustment:
$args = func_get_args();
call_user_func_array(array(self::$statement,'bindParam'),$args);
since func_get_args as an argument is allowed only on user defined
functions.
Thank you very much for your time!

PHP4 has been deprecated forever now. Step up to the plate and get
with 5, especially if you're still writing new code.
I installed php5 on my local dev box years ago. Since then, I've been
pulling down random sites off our servers and testing them and fixing
little gotchas. Out of the hundreds of sites we host there were only
a few problems and once I figured out what those were it really became
quite easy to fix the issues with find and replace techniques. Most
of it was limited to my oop code. ;) So while I do understand this
argument, it is pretty old and needs to just stop. Nobody was paying
my company to upgrade and fix code that busted in the transition. It
is just the nature of the business.

Today, July 13, marks 4 years since the release of PHP 5.0. _4 YEARS_ to move applications and code to PHP5. Its either apathy or incometence. I think apathy... for those who don't give a damn about OOP or the advanced OOP features, PHP5 brought little to the table while often requiring work to get your code there. Then followed multiple versions each with their own quirks all the while tightening a noose of OOP correctness around the developer who didn't care about some purists OOP philosophies. Finally, and this isn't particularly true anymore, PHP5 was much slower in earlier versions. And yes, I've modified my own code as things have progressed, but I certainly do have clients that didn't want me wasting their money converting their code-base (not originally written by me) to PHP5. And yes, I've seen terrible things in the code that PHP5 certainly did break. And again, yes, some of this was due to poor coding on the original developer's part... but hey, it DID work in PHP4. By forcing an end of life, PHP did a favour to all those developers who couldn't really make the case to their bosses or clients by forcing it upon them. The issue became much more salient at that point.

I'd suggest a structure more like: img_id date_viewed counter Where counter is simply the number of times the specified image was viewed on that day. I just finished writing a blog post about a similar requirement that may help - http://bradym.net/mysql/logging-requests-with-mysql . Now the client wants a little extra functionality, and with me sucking at maths I need some help please, basically he now wants to have a chart with all the 50 images there and showing _via percentages_ instead of the present 1-10 display which ones are the most popular till date. You get the percentage simply by dividing the number of requests for a specific image by the total number of requests for all images. So if you had the following data: img1 - 50 views img2 - 20 views img3 - 15 views img4 - 10 views img5 - 5 views To get the total, you would just add all those views together (100) in this case. Then for the percentages just divide each one by 100, ie: $img1_percent = 50 / 100; Also, if i am not mistaken there was some charting software to display this kind of data in pie and line charts... anybody know what i am talking about? because i cant find such a link in my bookmarks. There are several options for charting, here's a post I came across earlier in the week with some options: http://free-wiz.blogspot.com/2008/07/best-free-chart-apis.html .

[PHP] Saving loading time at counting rows
I had this question, which I didn't really know where to ask, so I thought to begin at this mailing list. Very basicly said, I count the rows of a table which had approx 5 or more rows. The problem is, there is a notable difference in loading time with other pages. Is there a technique to estimate the number of rows instead of exactly couting them? So that it saves loading time. For example, when you search with google, you get an estimate of the number of results, how do they do this? Maybe this is not a question for the PHP Mailing list, but if not where is a better place to ask this? regards, Joep -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You don't need a cron job for that, just tie a date to the count entry and have each access to it compare the date with current date. If the date is 24 hours since the last update, then that lucky person has to wait a bit longer than most while a count is establish and recorded.
