I am presuming that one of my customers hosts has upgraded to PHP5.3.10 over the
weekend, and now the site is broken! It is currently codeignighter based,
something which I am in the process of replacing anyway, but I need to get
http://eveshamselfdrive.co.uk/ working again as it was last week. At this stage
I am only assuming that the '<?=' is the problem, but it certainly looks like
that and I'm not sure you can change short_open_tag with set_ini ? It certainly
has not worked adding that ... Help
( I'm in the process of moving these sites to one of my own machines, but that
is a few weeks away )

You can't set it from ini_set(), see http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/ini.list.php
and the link in there to the mode values as to what you can/not change and why.
You can set it in php.ini itself, or possibly from .htaccess. failing that,
find/replace on the old short echo tags would do it.
Thanks,
Ash

Protected only in php 5.4.x, not in 5.3.x
Php 5.3 a prior, the only safe tag is <?php, in 5.4.x safes tags are <?php and
<?=.
In my codes, i only use this <?php, 100% safe.

And also as you say that it is based with codeigniter you can use a
feature of the framework for emulate it.

That was probably the other sort of hint I was looking for 9 hours ago ;)
Maintaining something one has not actually use in anger does not help, so half
the problem fixing things was simply finding where they were.
I would have started moving things over by now, but I decided that I'd configure
the new box with Apache2.4 and PHP5.4 while I was at it. I just need all the
extras that haven't been converted over yet :(
Such as Magickwand and eaccelerator.

Hi all,
I have a problem with PHP passthru() blocking when it is supposed to start a
daemon and return.
I have a Node.js daemon with a bash script wrapper around it. Users can call
this bash script directly, but it is also used by our deployment system. Our
deployment system uses Phing, and Phing uses `exec()` and `passthru()`
internally to cann external programs.
The bash script wrapper around my Node.js uses a bit of process replacement
because my Node.js server can't directly log to syslog. Normally I'd start
Node.js like this:
forever -l app.log app.js
But because I want it to log to syslog, I put this in the bash script:
forever -l >(logger) app.js
The `logger` process replacement creates a file descriptor into syslog like
/dev/fd/63 whose path is passed to the forever command as the logfile to use.
This works great when I start the daemon using the bash script directly, but
when the bash script is executed using PHP passthru() or exec() then these
calls will block. If I use a regular logfile instead of the process
replacement then both passthru() and exec() work just fine, starting the
daemon in the background.
I have created a complete working example (using a simple PHP daemon instead
of Node.js) on Github's Gist: https://gist.github.com/1977896 (needs PHP 5.3.6+)
Why does the passthru() call block on the process replacement? And is there
anything I can do to work around it?
Kind regards,
--

No, client B and C have different OS versions. You are right this can be a
reason too. Do you have any hints how I can trace that down?

Good morning PHP groupies!
I am off on my next tangent now and I have not really thought about this
too much yet but have you seen a method to convert a nested unordered
list into JSON using PHP?
Thanks!

There's a very useful search function for the PHP manual on the PHP site.
Typing json into that would have got you to http://php.net/json_encode. If that
can't natively handle your variable type then you'll need to massage the data
into simple types first.

$json = json_encode($nested_unordered_list);
As I said, whether that works or not depends on what type
$nested_unordered_list is. If it's not made of standard types you'll need to
massage it into a structure using standard types.

So what you're saying is that I will need to turn the nested unordered
list into an array? Because an array would more accurately represent the

Difficult to answer without knowing how your data is currently stored. Gimme a
var_dump or var_export of your data and I'll be able to give you an answer.

Jay,
Sounds like your tangents are efforts to accomplish things that you know too
little about and don't want to spend too much time getting acquainted with.
To borrow from your crude response to Mr. Dallas: You may have RTFM, now
try DTFW. :)

It is an unordered nested list as in the following example -
<ul>
<li>foo</li>
<li>bar
<ul>
<li>glorp</li>

Seriously Jim? I have been a member and contributor to this very list
for a very long time. I do know about my tangents and I am quite
acquainted with what is entailed but hoping that the community might
have some insight that would cause me to look at things in a fresh light.
I appreciate your rude response to my rude response. You are quite clever :)

Ahh, the list is in an HTML document, suddenly it all becomes clear.
DOMDocument is probably your best bet here. Other HTML parsers are also

An appl that has been working fine for a year now and fine up through last
week, suddenly is not working on my iphone. The only differences between
using it on a pc, ipad or iphone are for font sizes and such (handled by JS)
so I'm puzzled as to what is going on. I do the same exact thing on each of
these 3 devices and the iphone fails. The specifics are : I'm entering a
date into an input field and php is supposed to retrieve it and display a
record that is retrieved using that input. The iphone for some reason is
not getting my input (passed via POST) correctly, yet it's the same script
being run for each device.
Trying not to paranoid, but does anyone think that Apple could have done
something to my iphone in the last few days?

Of all the possible things that could have happened in order of likelihood,
that's sandwiched between aliens having taken over your phone and the ghost of
Steve Jobs up to mischief!
Have you debugged the code to see what your script is receiving from Safari? If
not then I respectfully refer you to the advice you recently gave Jay.

Actually, I have been working on it for about 4 hours now. Very simple
script (like all of mine) that is working rock solid on 2 out of 3 boxes.
In the last few mins I re-booted my phone and it is now doing something even
worse! As I fill in the date field using the iphone, the chars are showing
up in the field onscreen. But - once I close the keyboard (not submit) -
the input field reverts to ONLY one character! This also happens if I hit
the Next button on the keyboard to advance to the next input field. And it
is that character that my php script then receives when I do submit the
form. I have no code anywhere that addresses the input fields with JS so
it's not something that I have 'forgotten' about - it is totally new and
strange behavior. And no, google has nothing to say about this (yet).

No - I didn't go that far, but I can. More testing has revealed that Safari
running on my PC also doesn't like to accept the date I'm inputting. As
soon as I tab off the field, it changes itself to whatever my first two
digits were.

Do you have a maxlength set by accident?

No. As I said - this appl is a year old and works fine. Or did work. See
next post for solution.

Okay - here's the scoop - although this is not the forum for it.
Ipads and Iphones respect an html input tag's type="number" attribute in
order to trigger the device's different keyboard configurations. This is a
neat trick that I found on a couple of apple-related sites and has been
working fine. I just now removed that from my code that generates the html
and Voila - problem gone. Apparently Safari has been modified recently is
my guess.

What format was your date in? It was my understanding that only numerical
characters with a preceeeding sign and decimal point was allowed? I would
expect a date to be in the form dd/mm/yyyy or dd-mm-yyyy (allowing for swapping
months and days of course) but neither is a valid number.

I might be wrong, but I think Ash was actually asking why the hell a date field
had that type attribute set to number. That's just messed up!!

Solution!
Found this post from last Fall. Didn't experience the problem because my
appl is a NASCAR one and the season ended before this problem was created,
apparently by an Apple update on my phone.
Here's a link to the story:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3408352?tstart=0
To summarize - apparently ios 5.0 changed how the number attribute works on
an input tag. Now it sees any input using that feature as a purely numeric
field which in my case causes my date entry to be truncated once the first
slash was hit. Now that I'm using my appl with the start of the new season,
I'm running into it.
Thanks for all the interest and help.

Cause it triggers the iphone to pop up a non-alpha keyboard which makes
entering a data field easier (you don't have to explicitly switch to it with
a keypress). The default kyb is an all-alpha one.

And if you change your input type to "date", because it's a date, does
that bring up the numeric keys as well?

actually I have not seen anything that suggests that is a possible option.
I am about to test something that I just received from Apple tho......
