RE: [PHP-DB] PHP script execution - display issue
Hello, I have a display problem with one of my sites. Because there is an big amount of information in the pages, which is extracted from database, using IE browser I see only the background of the site, and then, after a time, the whole page. My client has recently requested to make something to improve the site speed and display time. So because all the site is done using the classes, and the information is extracted through them, I reduced the instruction numbers, and I compacted as much as I could the classes. But I still have the display problem using IE browser : I see the background, and just after that I see the whole site. I mention that the classes are included, and the class function is called through $this_class-function($parameters); Not all the classes used in the page are called In the beginning; and another mention is that the site pages contains 4 sections. Top, left, middle, right. My question is: Is there a way to display sequentially the site. After the background, to display the first section (top), then left part, middle part and right part after that ? Again, the site loads like this : the background, then the whole page. This doesn't matter if I use dial-up or T1. My client saw, for example, that cnn or yahoo site loads sequentially. Knowing that yahoo is done in php, I'm wondering how they did it.

[PHP-DB] Re: PHP script execution - display issue
This is neither a PHP nor database question. This is client side. Anyway, a simple fact is that tables won't render until the whole table has been loaded into memory (ie. it won't show until it reaches the /table tag). If you have your whole site inside one big table, then this is what is causing your problems. Unfortunately, sometimes this unavoidable. To make it run sequentially, you could do this, or use divs with absolute positioning. just a thought. Adam Hello, I have a display problem with one of my sites.

You can try using flush() to send the buffer to the browser, but it may or may not help. A lot of browsers won't show the table until the /table tag is reached.

I don't think I've found the problem, but I thought I'd point out a couple
things:
// Open the database and start looking at URLs
$sql = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM search);
while($rslt = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){

The above line gets all the data from the table and then starts looping

$site = mysql_fetch_array($puts);
$nurl = $site[url];
$ncrc = $site[checksum];
$ndate = $site[date];
if($ndate = $daycheck || $ncrc != $checksum){
That line does the same query again for this particular URL to set variables
in the $site array, though you already have this info in the $rslt array.
You could potentially save hundreds of queries there.

things, but I like this too.
// Kill any trailing slashes
if(substr($link,(strlen($link)-1)) == /){
$link = substr($link,0,(strlen($link)-1));
}
Why are you killing the trailing slashes? That's going to cause fopen
double the work to get to the pages. That is, first it will request the
page without the slash, then get a redirect response with the slash, and
then request the page again.
// Put the new URL in the search database
$chk = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM search WHERE url = '$link');
$curec = mysql_fetch_array($chk);

encapsulate the above in a function, so your $link variables don't clobber
each other.

reaches a certain size, but 300 or so records should be a piece of cake

that stands out. It's not an issue with a variable, something is going
wrong in the execution either of php, or a sql query. I'm not finding
any errors in the mysql error log, or anywhere else.
What url is it dieing on? You could probably echo each $url to the terminal
to watch it's progression and see where it is stopping.
I've had problems with apache using custom php error docs where the error
doc contained a php generated image that wasn't found. Each image that
failed would generate another PHP error which cascaded until the server
basically died.
KIND OF BROADER ASIDE REGARDING SEARCH ENGINE PROBLEMS:
I've also had recursion problems because php allows any characters to be
appended after the request. For example, let's say you have an examples.php
file and for some reason you have a relative link in examples.php to
examples/somefile.html. If the examples directory doesn't exist, apache
will serve examples.php to the user using the request of
examples/somefile.html. A recursive search engine (that isn't too smart,
i.e., infoseek and excite for colleges), will keep requesting things like:
http://example.com/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/exa
mples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/example
s/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/ex
amples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/exampl
es/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/examples/e
xamples/examples/somefile.html
As far as apache is concerned, it is fulfilling the request with the
examples.php file and php just sees a really long query_string starting with
/examples.
I'm sure that isn't your problem, but I've been bit by it a few times.

Hope some of that ramble helps. Please try to see if it is dieing on a

Re: [PHP-DB] Real Killer App!
Ok, here's something else I've just noticed about this problem. I
noticed that when this things gets to a certain point, somewhere in the
4th run through, it hits a certain url, then the next, at which point it
seems to pause for several seconds, then it goes back and hits that
first certain url. It looks something like this:
Updating: http://www.domain.com/certainurl.html
Updating: http://www.domain.com/nexturl.html
Updating: http://www.domain.com/certainurl.html
It only does this in one place, though not necessarily the same place,
depending on where I start, then, afterwards, it goes through a few more
pages, and that's where it dies. Another thing is, if I start from
scratch with a site that has 69 pages in it, it goes right through and
indexes it fine without any problems. I have two other sites I'm using
for testing, and they both have over 1000 pages. on both of them it dies
after putting about 240-250 records in the database, usually right at
244. This is true of both sites, and it happens no matter where I start
or how I configure the initial URL.I keep going back to a memory problem
with either PHP or MySQL, or could I be looking in the wrong place?
Could the problem be with Apache?
I also wanted to thank you guys. I've gotten a few really good
suggestions about the code, and although they haven't solved this
specific problem, they have helped me improve the overall performance of
the app.

I have two other sites I'm using for testing, and they both have over 1000 pages. on both of them it dies after putting about 240-250 records in the database, usually right at 244.

[PHP-DB] timestamp problem
I'm using the timestamp column type in a database, and the only problem is that it the stamp is three hours prior to the actual post when I post to a remote server. I'm assuming, since it works fine on my machine, that this is because the remote server I am is in a different time zone. Is there any way I can amend my code to account for the time difference? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DB] PHP and Sendmail
Hi there everyone, I might soon be moving my server from Linux to Windows, and I was wondering if I will have to rewrite my PHP - Sendmail code to work on Windows Apache?

[PHP-DB] interbase/firebird - There was a time with multiple conections
Hello, I have been using php --with-interbase for some time and I enjoy using php scripts to everything so I did some small scripts to use as a datapump to the interbase. My scripts relay on the fact that I can have two simultaneos connections to the different databases in order to pump data from one to another. Since I allways update my CGI version of php e also I am using the latest stable version of firebird, I believe that something has happend that changed the behavior of my php scrips. Now, when I do the second connection, everything looks like the second one takes command over the first one. I could verify this with some changes in my script. Does anyone knows about such behavior? I may post my script if anyone is interested, but there is nothing really special about it besides two connections to the interbase. By the way, I am using persistent connections.

RE: [PHP-DB] PHP and Sendmail
Chris, Just a thought. You could set up a linux system on an old pentium box just use it as your mail server, thus no need to change your code if it is hard coded, just point to the new server.

[PHP-DB] Vars and Includes
Well, here's one for you. I put the spider thing down for a while and went to work on another part of the app. Immediately, and all I did was change a particular value from a hard 3 to a variable set to 3. Now, even after putting the code back exactly the way it was, and even after rebooting the server, php will not execute any includes. None at all, not even my require(configfile) type include.

[PHP-DB] Syncing the structure of two databases?
Dear list, I'm developing an intranet-based application using PHP and MySQL. We release new versions of our application regularly, and synchronizing the structure of the databases is beginning to be a headache. Do any tools exist that would let me sync the structure of two databases? Ideally, I'd like to include a mysqldump --no-data (or something analogous) file with each of our releases, and run a script on the client's server that would update the structure of their own local database from that file. We're cross-platform (windows, linux, and mac). And, all servers are behind their own firewalls. I'm aware of sqlyog (http://www.webyog.com/sqlyog/download.html), but I need something that can be written in php, and works without a live connection to the master database. Any clues?

it's not PHP, but mysqldiff is a perl tool that would probably give you the desired results. it can generate the SQL necessary to sync databases. http://adamspiers.org/computing/mysqldiff/ (sorry if anyone got this in duplicate, i was having probs sending to the list until i fixed the envelope.) - john On Thu, Mar 13, 2003 at 09:16:51PM -0500, John W.

Re: [PHP-DB] Real Killer App!
As you guys know I've been going around in circles with this spider app problem for a couple days. I think I finally found where the screwup is, and I'm sure you'll be interested to hear about it. I had been testing with three sites because they were fairly diverse and gave me a lot of different stuff to stress the app. One was a site with about 70 pages made up almost entirely of links that include a query string. The other two where sites mostly of just text with lots of link lists and stuff, and that used a lot of SSI, and stuff like that. These two sites had about 1000 pages or so each, but only indexed about 200 or so of them then died. I decided to try something different. I indexed a site that I have on my server. Since it's hitting it at 100MHz things went pretty fast. It ran for a while and indexed over 1600 pages. Then, not only did it die, I got BSOD! Yep, that's right, w2k handed me a hard ntoskernel crash. Isn't that special? At this point I'm not sure if it's a bug in windows, in php 4.3.1, or mysql 3.23.55. In any case, I'm moving the app to a linux box tomorrow and will be very interested to see the results of that. It's a standard red hat 8 setup, php4.2.2 and mysql 3.23.54a. I hate to have to release this as a linux only release, but if that's what it takes, that's what it takes! In the mean time, is there anything in php or mysql that is critical for windows that might not be addressed in the standard docs? The hardware is good, and not anywhere near being taxed. The OS seems stable, I haven't had a lot of trouble with w2k when asking it to do much more complex stuff than this. Anyway, if this doesn't work on the linux box, I'm going to have to start from scratch on this spider. How would you do it?

We are accepting Detailed description of the item in Textarea/Textarea. Is there any function which can return full words without breaking the lines.
