Thanks for the response, I decided that it was easier to unpack the zip
during the upload process and then delete the zip. I can then indicate
which files I want to zip up and this works (opening the zip on the
server), but, and it's a big but, when the zip is downloaded to the
users machine it is being corrupted!
To force the download I use:
header('Content-type: application/zip');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.$tutorzipfile);
readfile($filename);
Which correctly gives me:
Content-Type: application/zip
Content-disposition: attachment; filename=tutorzipfile.zip
when viewing the LiveHTTPHeaders extension in firefox.
However, when I view the zip file that is downloaded to my machine, in
Textpad, php has appended the directory information of the files I'm
zipping up onto the front of the zip file, so it no longer starts PK!!!
Anyone any ideas???
Thanks in advance
Matt

Hello,
The following examples don't work
printf("[%10s]\n", $s); // justification à droite avec des espaces
printf("[%-10s]\n", $s); // justification à gauche avec des espaces
but this one:
printf("[%'#10s]\n", $s); // utilisation du caractère personnalisé de
séparation '#'
is ok (with any separator)
Source: http://ch2.php.net/manual/fr/function.sprintf.php
Is it related to French characters set I used for displaying my page ?

We'd only know if you told us what "doesn't work" means. Do you get
_any_ output? What? Error messages? Are you sure that you're using
UTF-8 encoding?

No, it's related to your browser replacing multiple whitespace
characters with a single horizontal space.

I have a list of subjects, such as "Linux", "Open Source", and "the
World Wide Web". The subjects are stored in a database and being
retrieved via php. I currently organize them alphabetically with SQL's
ORDER BY ASC argument, however, if there is a preceding "the " or "a "
then that is considered as part of the alphabetical order. Thus, all
the subjects starting with "the " are grouped together, as are the
subjects starting with "a ". How can I order by ascending, without
taking the preceding "the " or "a " into account?
Thanks in advance.

Dotan:
In your table, set up a sort field. That way there will be no
interpolation as to what you want.

If you used PostgreSQL I'd suggest a functional index and ordering
on the function... Does MySQL have anything like this?
CREATE FUNCTION fn(TEXT)
RETURNS TEXT
IMMUTABLE STRICT
LANGUAGE SQL
AS $$
SELECT regexp_replace($1, '^(?:(?:a|the)[[:space:]]+)', '', 'i');
$$;
CREATE INDEX ON table(fn(subject));
Thats rather nifty, i dont think you can do that with mysql, but you
could achieve something close to that with a trigger for insert/update
to apply the regex to a different field that is used for sorting.
The other option would make a policy to put ", The" or ", A" at the
end of the string a simple function to render the text without the
comma at the end would be simple to do.

use readfile to read the file and output it to the browser. I don't
know the specific ones, but you'll need to also send headers that
declare the file as streaming media.

Thanks. :)
That's an idea... Few questions. Grab the file and sendt it to
someone, that
would work with a download but would it work with a streaming audio
file,
because that has to be opened in realOne player or windows media
player? I
was searching PHP.net documentation for a way of grabbing a file -
what
function would be used?? Sorry about the silly questions..
Sincerely,
Adam

You put the data in a directory outside of the webspace and use PHP

control access to the file.
By webspace, I'm referring to the directories outside of the ones
used to store and serve your webpages. This directory structure
would serve as an example for where you store your webpages and where
you store your data separately from the webpages:
/www/www.somesite.com/htdocs
/www/www.somesite.com/data

Hey all,
Most of you have seen me long enough on this list and helped me more times than
I want to remember to know that this is not a spam email, that said...
A project has dropped into my lap to clone a site's functionality... rather
than post it on the many freelance job sites as I dont have time to do this
myself (and not sure about the skill either...even though i know i can come
here for help if I hit a brick wall in the middle of the project) thought I
would give it a shot here first.
I'll just skim the details so most of you will know if you're interested in a
few seconds and can write back to me for details (offlist, we dont want to
offend anyone :) )
===========
Budget: around $800 USD
Skills needed:
===========
PHP 4 (NOT 5)
MySql
Smarty (No designing needed, we'll get the designs later and "connect" them)
(This will be running on a Linux server so a little understanding/experience
here would be a bonus but its not a requirment.)
Understanding the httpd.conf file of apache and (IMPORTANT) URL rewriting via
directives in that file
Understanding PERL (as theres one client script that has to be in
PERL...already created)
If you're serious about freelancing for a project please reply, I ask the
"simply curious" to kindly ignore this post. Thanks in advance!
Questions? I'm just an email away :)
Cheers!
Ryan

Hi,
I am using the fsockopen(), fwrite() and fread() functions to get a web
page from a remote server. The remote server is currently down and I see
the code hangs on the fwrite() call. Is there a way how to set a timeout
for the fwrite() remote call?
I have found the stream_set_timeout(), but it seems not to be effective
on the fwrite(), only on fread().
Thanks,
Martin

Greetings All,
Have something that I am sure is easy to do, just never done it before and
would like some guidance here.
I need to pull treasure yield percentage rates into a loan site I am working
on.
So basically I want to hit a page from another site.
Grab the HTML file.
Parse it for the values I am looking for.
And then plug it into variables for use on my site.
Any ideas on the best way to do this??
