Hm, good question ;-)
A day has 86400 seconds.
Multiply it by 'enough' days (eg 365) and always refresh
your cookie's expiration. This might solve your problem.

Matthias

Hi Ray Hunter, you wrote:
you can define your own superglobals by defining the vars first then
accessing them thru the $GLOBALS var.
example:
<?php
// file1.php
$var1 = "test1\n";
$var2 = "test2\n";
?>
<?php
// file2.php
include( 'file1.php' );
function test() {
echo $GLOBALS['var1'];
echo $GLOBALS['var2'];
echo "Test\n"
}
test();
?>
That should get you started with globals.
Well, this is clear, (I'm only new in the list - not in PHP ;-) )
but I want it in a better/shorter way
for the "master var" of a big project!
Is there a way to request such a feature and where?
I think this would be nice for application frameworks!?
Maybe also for PEAR...

You can always add to one of the superglobals, remembering not to have
a name clash with get or post variables.
$_GET['test'] = 'Hi";
now that will be available in all functions.

Sorry this all is not what I'm looking for.
I see it is not possible at the moment.
It would be nice to have a php-function like
declare_superglobal($_MYFRAMEWORK);
And then use $_MYFRAMEWORK like $_GET.
Thanks nevertheless.

Yes you can set up a master file that includes all your master
vars...many php developers call this a configuration script and name it
config.php.
This allows users to set up global variables that are used through out
the application.

I have been wanting the same thing, but I too have not found a solution, and
do not know if it will come around.
Being able to create your own super-global would be a very nice feature.

You can request features at bugs.php.net. there is a type of bug
called 'Feature/Change Request'.

Someone wrote a php module that did this around 6 to 9 months ago. It
was easy to install but you needed access to php.ini.
Try using extract with the option to use references so you don't create
a copy of the variable just a pointer to it.

You have a few options: if you are looking to set variables that are
static and atomic, you can use environmental variables in an .htaccess
file (getenv() to access them) or you can use read-only constants
(define() to create them).
If you need a global read-write or array variable, just use $_GLOBALS:
use $_GLOBALS['_MYFRAMEWORK'] like $_GET, etc.

Hi ,
I try to upload a file with such an input type = 'file' field.
My form looks like:
echo "<form action = '". $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]."' method = 'GET' enctype
= 'multipart/form-data'>\n";
...
echo "<td><input type = 'file' name = 'newtextupload'
accept='text/*'></td>\n";
...
echo "<td><input type = 'submit' name = 'submit' value =
'ändern'></td>\n";
echo "</form>\n";
After submition, I can't find the file on the server. Nowhere.
In php.ini, I have /tmp as upload-directory.
I'm using apache2 on linux.
Can somebody tell me why the file is not uploaded?
Thx for answering

when you are uploading files via a form, you must use the POST method.

I think that the methos should be POST not GET
Second, you may want to save the file first with,
move_uploaded_file (see
http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php),
then you will be able to see it.
Of course you will first check it's in order to save it.
Third: it might be a good idea to check your php.ini and
see if you allow file uploads and also the httpd.conf

ok. the key here then is that php is going to erase the uploaded file after
the script has finished processing.
What you have to do is move the file to a different location before the
script ends.
This is the normal behavor for PHP.
More then likely the file is getting transmitted to the server, but when the
script ends php automatically does some cleanup and erases any leftover
files. Since you didn't move the file, it thinks that it is leftover and
just erases it.
Try moving the file or renaming it in some mannor and you will notice that
the file stays on the server even after the script ends.

Did you get any error (displayed/logged) ?
Test it like that:
print_r($_FILES) // with php < 4.1 use $HTTP_POST_FILES
Now you can find your file at ...['tmp_name']
See also the php manual ;-)

Subject: [PHP] google style paginating
Hi I am new to this newsgroup and I plan on replying to all the posts I can for now...
but Id like to start out by asking a question. I am trying to paginate my sql results
in 10 by 10, which I have been able to do no problem. but what I want to do is have
the pages layed out in google style with (1)(2)(3)(4) etc etc and each one is
clickeable that will take you to that page. I'll show you the code I am using now for
next and back buttons...
//located at top of page
<?php
include("include/conex.php");
$link=Conectarse();
?>
//start of body, this verifies that so is numeric, divisible by 10, and a valid number
<?php $q="SELECT id FROM tblNoticias ORDER BY id "; $result=MYSQL_QUERY("$q",$link);
$num_rows=(MYSQL_NUM_ROWS($result));
if ( isset($_GET['so']) && is_numeric($_GET['so']) )
{
if ( ($_GET['so'] > $num_rows) || ($_GET['so'] < 0) )
$so='0';
else
{
if ($_GET['so'] % 10)
$so='0';
else
$so=$_GET['so'];
}
}
else
$so='0';
?>
//return results
<?php
$q="SELECT id,titulo,texto,img1_data FROM tblNoticias ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $so,10";
$result=(MYSQL_QUERY("$q",$link));
while ($row=(MYSQL_FETCH_ARRAY($result))){
?>
// next and back buttons
<?PHP
if ( $so >=10)
{
$sortback= $so-10;
echo "<A HREF=\"noticias_historia.php?so=$sortback\" class=\"mainText\"><<

}
?>
<?PHP
$sortforth=$so + 10;
$existencias=MYSQL_QUERY("SELECT id FROM tblNoticias LIMIT $sortforth,10",$link);
$existencias=MYSQL_NUM_ROWS($existencias);
if ( $existencias > 0 )
echo " <A HREF =\"noticias_historia.php?so=$sortforth\"
class=\"mainText\"> Siguiente >> </A>";
?>
DID I PUT WAY TO MUCH CODE?? Sorry, and I apreciate your help.
How can I implement the google style paging into this code?

There is no way to get this exactly!
You cannot record the time a user
is really reading a single page.
It has to do something with the http protocol
being 'connectionless'!
I heared/read that there's a standard
of the 'advertisment-industry' saying
that a visit ends after 30 minutes after
the last (session-)request.
(A bad method if you really must have this
very exact is to do a short http-refresh,
eg every minute.)
I also think, this is no php problem
but a common problem of the http protocol
which wasn't designed to hold a connection
over a user's session - that's why session
management had to be invented ;-)

Matthias

There's really no way to do this, only ways to estimate the time.
Assign each user a unique id (session_id or a username) and record the
time during each request. After there are no more requests for X minutes
(your choice), then consider the session terminated.
If you are using session, one possibility may be to use your own handler
and write a garbage collection routine that records the "age" of the
session file as it's cleaned up. You can consider the age of the session
file as the time that the user was on your site.

Use POST instead of GET method... POST method allows u to even extend the

Why would that be the problem? Regardless of the enctype, it should still
create POST/GET data for whatever else was in the form. Yes,
multipart/form-data *should* only be used if they are uploading a file.
That doesn't mean PHP should ignore additional POST/GET data from the
form, which it has had a history of doing, depending on which way the wind
blows or the price of tea in China.

You need to take a second look at the way you are refering to the
varialbles in the process page.
You are using the POST method in the method='POST' in the form, but on the
process page you are refering to it via $_GET['...'] change this to
$_POST['...'] and you should be fine.

I have always had problems in cutting and pasting new forms off old ones.
Often the problem is in the communication that makes the form allow repliers
to view results on screen. This is good to do with opinion polls to start
discussions.
I have a *terrible* time locating the source of the error.
Do experienced .php users have a method for finding errors in the print
to screen?
I will send the culprit .php file to anybody who is willing to look it over.
Thanks,

This is a pretty vague question. Provide some more detail as to the
exact problem that you're having, post a bit of the relavant file, and
the exact error message. :)

Here is the URL of the poll form.
http://dakotacom.net/~glomc/forms/CAT.html
When you do this poll it immiediately attempts to print to screen.
There's also a "VIEW RESPONSES" button so ppl don't have to
answer the poll to view reponses. You can see now that there
is just a little jumble of letters at upper left of the screen.
Something is wrong in the .php file.
One member of this group gave a working routine to me to
choose among three select calls for the display. Maybe that has
been corrupted by losing a letter or something. I cut and paste
new forms off the old.
I am willing to send the .php file backchannel. I have deleted the personal
addresses from it.
Thanks,

One other thing I noticed:
If you click source code, you get the input replies and the formatting.
None of it shows on screen where I want it, though.

I don't see this. Everything appears fine in Mozilla when I supply
answers or if I just click on "view responses"...
Something is wrong in the .php file.
Or poor HTML that is not formatting correctly?

I am writing an admin for sqlite but have struck a
problem with exporting data. I wish to simply
get a dump of the current sql database. from
the commandline this would be done with .dump
however this causes an error when used with
sqlite_query()
Is there any other method to get a sqlite dump?
Kind regards

I just installed the sqlite extension today myself and was looking for
all those dot commands but I don't think they are supported by the
extension unfortunately. My suggestion is to call sqlite with exec() in
order to get the .dump.
$command="sqlite db_name '.dump'";
exec($command,$result);
print_r( $result);// shows the dump array

As sqlite is bundled with php5, I guess command line type commands
are not available because it is compiled in.

Something like that, I use it as a separately compiled dynamic library
with php4 though.

I looked everywhere for the answer to this dilemma, and i know there is a
way around it, maybe something about the headers, cant really remember how
it was, but can someone please tell me how i can use PHP code on a file
with an extension of .html?
For example, on a file called info.html, i want to have some PHP code that
actually gets executed.

In your httpd.conf add the line

Better to do this in an .htaccess file, so you don't incur PHP processing
overhead on the entire server (if there are others using it).

I am using an application where I retrieve user profile from a MySQL
DB using the Company Name . I pass the name of the company to the PHP
script as a '$_GET' parameter. e.g. when the name of the company is
'IBM'. , the URL with the query string would look like :
http://masterstream.com/CRM/full_profile_1.php?name=IBM
Now one of the records had a name : PSG & Inc. , in this case the URL
with the query string would look like
http://masterstream.com/CRM/full_profile_1.php?name=PSG%20&%20Inc.
However in the case of the latter I am not able to pull out any records
from the MySQL database. It says that "no records with the name were
found". I went ahead and tweaked the name of the company, to remove
the "&" sign in 'PSG & Inc.' Now the query works fine. Can some one
throw some light here. I am sure something minor is to be done when
passing the name of the company in the parent script.
The & character separates variables in the query string, so it must be
encoded if it appears in the data. Take a look at
http://us2.php.net/urlencode

Heres the problem. I have one of my client's site hosted on a crappy
server, and i have it running with php+mysql ok, the thing is i need to
connect to that site's mysql's database from a different site to get data.
The problem is that on the origin site (the crappy server), to connect to
the database, i use "localhost". How can i find out the real server to
connect to from the other site? I tried using the whole domain, like
www.crappyserver.com, but doesnt work. :-P

Make sure that the user that you are connecting with has permissions to
connect to mysql from that computer. You can check the user table in the
mysql database to see the user and their associated permissions.
I would suggest checking out mysql.com for additional information.
