[PHP-DB] Re: Applications using multiple databases
Hello! In my opinion what your conclusion is sounds correct. I would not have a system that creates a new database for each and every client. Why? If the sollution is hosted on a random ISP, most of theese does not allow the creation of new databases. However, surtain ISP have packages where you can have multiple databases, but often not more than 5 in total. This would in most circumstances result in you only having 5 customers in each installation. If you are running the system on your own server, there are no problems with this, as you controll the system and can create as many databases as you would want. On the other hand you could solve this by instead of creating unique databases for each client, prefix the tables inside the database with the clients username. This would result in alot of tables, but again would give you access to every server in the world that has mySQL database available - And it would be easy to backup since you only have just 1 database to backup. It is however, in my opinion, smart to have seperate tables and such for each end every customer. Should there be a corruption somewhere, atleast it wont effect all the clients, but only 1 client. (Aslong as its not the main software that destroys/deletes everything in a faulty SQL statement. My applications are done a little different, as I have solved this by installing a seperate installation for each customer. To protect my code I have purchased IonCube Encoder, which encrypts the code and renders it useless for reverse engineering. :) You might want to do the same.

Re: [PHP-DB] using code for multiple sites
Well, on the webservers I am using this would mean that the current user has read access to this folder aswell. E.g. /home/users/james /home/users/matt /home/users/patrick /home/users/shared Im used to that *james* only have read access in .../james/* Matt has only in .../matt/* and such, which would make it impossible to include anything in the .../shared/* folder. Unless you have root privilegies and can set up special rights. This would also only work as all the files are on the same server, as PHP cant include PHP code via HTTP (atleast in my knowledge). I have another sollution, which isnt quite as good, but I program all my PHP in classess and have a standard class file, that is identical for all customers. Difference is only what classes each client are using. As I develop my classess I see to that they are always backwards compatibel, this way I only have 1 (or more, but same directory) that I have to update. This makes it easy in my opinion, just connect with FTP - Update the files and Im down. -- Kim Steinhaug --- There are 10 types of people when it comes to binary numbers: those who understand them, and those who don't. --- Peter Lovatt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi I do exactly this on servers running several hundred sites. each site has a single file in the root, with any local config and a variable $inc_root set. eg ?php $config_var1 = 'xyz'; $config_var2 = 'xyz'; $inc_root = '/home/sites/shared_stuff/'; //must be an absulute not relative address ? all files are then referenced as include($inc_root.'directory/sub_directory/file_i_want.php') If you move things a lot you could link each site to a single file which sets the $inc_root, so you only change one file. HTH Peter -Original Message- From: mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 November 2003 14:42 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] using code for multiple sites I currently manage several websites that share the same code. This code is included into many of the pages on every site. I have duplicate copies of the code set up in each virtual host directory. Obviously this wastes space on my server and wastes my time having to update them all. I was looking for suggestions on the best way to be able to access these php files through includes for each site. A couple of the options that I have already looked into were- I could put the code all into one directory for site A and when I want to include these files I would have to include the full path to the files I really don't want to have to do this because I frequently move things and I would have to change the path on each file. either put these files into .:/usr/local/lib/php or create a directory called inc in /usr/local/apache and then add the following line to php.ini include_path = .:/usr/local/apache/inc I hope I made it clear what I want to accomplish. If you could give your recommendations I would greatly appreciate it.

Is your string really the only thing on a line, or could it be anywhere
in the input? The ^ (beginning) and $ (ending) anchors are probably
messing you up.
If your format *is* like this, you could do a quick
preg_replace('/$/',' target=_blank',$string)
(untested) and be done with it :-)

Re: [PHP-DB] - ereg_replace -SOLVED
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] eregi_replace(a href=\(.+)\, a href=\\\1\ target=\_blank\ class=\down_txt\, $body); How is that any different than just doing a str_replace() on a, though? The str_replace() is going to be much faster than the eregi_replace() function and href doesn't _have_ to be the first attribute in the anchor tag...

[PHP-DB] Mulitpart form posts and mysql blobs
How are files encoded when theyre sent in mulitpart forms??? Is it the same as blob fields in mySQL databased when you use the LOAD_FILE() command?? If not, is it easy to convert from one to the other?? At the moment, Im taking the blob from mySQL and writing it to a file and then uploading that file through cURL! Very messy.

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: [PHP] Mulitpart form posts and mysql blobs
Sorry, I should have said. Im trying to send this file to an external multipart form script which converts the file to the desired format. Im using cURL to do this. cURL can send files when given the filename, so I have to write the filename from the database and then give cURL the path. But thats messy I want to be able to get the BINARY data from mySQL and send it via cURL directly. TIA - Original Message - From: John W.
