RE: [PHP-DB] Reading emails with PHP
It may be sacrilege to mention it here, but there is an excellent perl module for handling mail bounces; I've used it to write a handler that catches the returned mail, gets the address(es) and reason(s) for the bounce, and then goes into our DB and flags the matching users. I looked all around at the time (this summer) but saw no php code like it, so I overrode my client's desire for PHP with his desire for savings :-) I'd be interested in more details on this, from the pov of a person who primarily knows php and only dabbled in perl, as I've never got anything to work in Perl. Do I envisage a .pl file on the server, is there a reference to this near the mail() php sending function etc... who does it tie together. Can the mail be first sent with mail() or does it have to be sent with a perl mail function? If the answer is too perl-intensive then reply off-group but I think it is of interest to php beginners to know what the alternatives are and how they might be dipped in and out of. http://www.cantor.com CONFIDENTIAL: This e-mail, including its contents and attachments, if any, are confidential.

RE: [PHP-DB] Splitting a string by a ,
I don't wish to hyjack this string but there is a module in perl for
extracting emails from files, I could not get it to work but wonder is there
any pre-written function in php that would parse text and extract the
emails. I wish to do it with pst files, ie people who have written to me
over time in order to get them into a manageable database.

if the emails are in a CSV file, you can also use fgetcsv
?php
$handle = fopen (test.csv,r);
while ($data = fgetcsv ($handle, 1000, ,)) {
$num = count ($data);
for ($c=0; $c $num; $c++) {

Hi there everyone,
I'm trying to split a string into an Array by a , but I kepe getting errors.
Looking at the PHP manual, I thought it would be this way:
$keywords = preg_split(,, $email);
But it keeps saying that the , isn't an ending delimiter?
Any help would be appreciated, i'm trying to split email addresses from an
input box seperated by a ,
Thanks for any help.

[PHP-DB] Dumping database/restoring
I use Mascon from scibit to view my database. It has a dump facility to dump to another database or to a local file. I am afraid of the first option lest it overwrites tables already on the other server. When I dump to a local file it is a text file and I can't work out how I would restore from this file. The support desk isn't answering and the notes don't cover restoring. That's the background. The question is how do people out there back up their database residing on a server to a local file? Ideally I would download the database and save on a CD, and be able to restore from this if the worst happened. http://www.cantor.com CONFIDENTIAL: This e-mail, including its contents and attachments, if any, are confidential.

RE: Re[2]: [PHP-DB] Dumping database/restoring
Hi Richard, I simply login to my server and issue a command like: mysqldump -hmysqlserverhost.com -utheusername -p dbname dbname.sql It will then prompt me for my password and dump the database (dbname) into dbname.sql -h = the sql host (often localhost) -u = a mysql account that has permissions to do this -p = prompt you to enter the password This file I then copy to another machine and do the reverse with mysqlimport (same syntax, instead of at the end). I am proposing to back up the database using the following command, using putty/ssh: mysqldump -opt --allow-keywords -hSERVERADDRESS -uUSER -p DATABASE-NAME c:\localpath.sql [from a post by Jon Benson on http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/mysqldump.html] It worries me that --opt includes a add-drop-table command. Since it is creating a new file, how does this affect anything. I just don't want to delete anything. Is it relevant on restoring only? Do you think the above command is OK to try? I'm allowing keywords as I made the mistake of calling one of my fields 'key' and haven't changed it yet.

$this is normally used in object oriented programming to signify the
current object. That may be causing the trouble. I'd use another
variable than $this.

Tried that, doesn't work with:

The manual says: the function imagerotate() is available when php is built with bundled gd. So this function won't be available when you (or your webhosting) build the php gd support with external gd packages, either from the distribution CD or from www.boutell.com. built php using '--with-gd', not '--with-gd=DIR' to have this function working.

RE: [PHP-DB] Error settings
From: Dillon, John [EMAIL PROTECTED] How do I get rid of the undefined variable errors I get on a new (default) set up of Apache 1.3.28/PHP4.3.2 (without re-writing the code). It works on the internet on my host providers server but I am running this on localhost. I also get undefined offset error. Adjust your error_reporting level in php.ini or use the error_reporting() function. ---John Holmes... Hm. Adjusted error_reporting to none. Why would I still get: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /method=post on this server. Apache/1.3.28 Server at www.somenet.com Port 80 same if I use get. And if I use the address: http://localhost/apics3.php?ID=349 it complains about undefined variable, ID. bNotice/b: Undefined variable: ID in bc:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\apics3.php/b on line b11/bbr / My php.ini contains: quote ; This directive tells PHP whether to declare the argvargc variables (that ; would contain the GET information). If you don't use these variables, you ; should turn it off for increased performance. register_argc_argv = On unquote My Apache httpd file has: quote LoadModule php4_module c:/PHP/php-4.3.2-Win32/sapi/php4apache.dll AddModule mod_php4.c AddType application/x-httpd-php .php unquote Sounds like I've adjusted the wrong file. I have only one php.ini file in c:\winnt (apart from the one in c:\php\backup), the one in c:/PHP/php-4.3.2-Win32 is called php.ini-dist and php.ini-recommended. I haven't touched these. Should I?

RE: [PHP-DB] Round a number

[PHP-DB] Extracting result - unknown number of fields
While doing a cross tabulation, I've got a query which gives me a variable
number of fields:
$query=SELECT Dept;
$count=count($piv_cos);
for($x=0;$x$count;$x++){
$query.=, SUM(IF(Co='$piv_cos[$x]',Exps175,0)) AS '$piv_cos[$x]';
}
$query.= FROM $tbl1 GROUP BY Dept;
$result=mysql_db_query($db, $query, $connection) or die (Query9
failed: $query);
...but how do I extract?
$piv_depts=array();
for($x=0;$x$count;$x++){${piv_.$x}=array();}
$piv_dept1=array();
$x=0;
while(list($a,$b)= mysql_fetch_array($result)) //I DON'T KNOW HOW
MANY TO list()
{
$piv_cos[$x]=$a;
for($y=0;$y$count;$y++){${piv_.$y}[$x]=$b;}
//...
//...
//$piv_dept1[$x]=$b;
$x++;
}
Is there an alternative approach?

[PHP-DB] check boxes and php
I want to create a page where the user will have a list of its favorites and by ticking a box opposite the item will be able to delete it by clicking the submit button. I want to make this dynamic so that the php works out the one to delete based on the value of the tickbox (I'm thinking), having first - done a query to retrieve the favorites of the user - listed the favorites on the browser and set the tick boxes with a value corresponding to the ID of the favorite...thus knowing which one to delete. I was wondering what's the best approach - the one above or to mix in some javascript? Any examples out there? I know it's a popular idea. Maybe there's a better approach than tickboxes.
