Is there a way to surpress round() or number_format() from rounding
decimal places?
I have a value of ".253338" being returned via a calc function.
I take that value and multiply by 100 because I want "25.333" to be
displayed.
I've used round(), sprintf(), and number_format() and each of them
rounds the value up.
I had a problem with precision earlier which I solved...my 'precision'
setting in php.ini was set too low. Is there something in php.ini that
controls rounding?
Any heads up are appreciated!
Thanks,
~Rob

One would expect sprintf not too round, but, behold, it does.
According to bugs.php.net, it is not a bug.

Perhaps by truncating the string to your precision that you desire.

My commercial host is set up with the public root directory, "public_html",
owned by user: userid, group: nobody. Directories I create within
public_html are owned by user: userid, group: userid. As a result, PHP does
not have permission to create files or write to files in public_html, but it
does within its subdirectories.
Is this a common setup? Are there security problems with changing the
ownership of public_html to user: userid, group: userid so PHP can create
files within the root directory? Advice, opinions, and links to relevant
information are requested.

I usually keep my writable directories outside the public_html
directory.
homedir/public_html/* All read only by webserver.
homedir/private_data/* Make these files read/write

PHP, i'll post it here. I was wondering if anybody can help me to accomplish
the following:

email has some attachments, being photo's to be added to some system.
- Sendmail recievers the email, and sends it to some PHP script
- This script parses the input it gets, ...
Now, what would I need to do for all this to happen?

The generic portable solution is to make your messages be deliverd to a
POP3 mailbox and the connect to the POP3 server to retrieve and process
the message.
I do that very often and use this POP3 client class to retrieve and
delete processed messages:

Hey I wanted to see if anyone was getting the same problem. Using preg_match
in the following pattern:
"/<tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF">(.|\n)+?<\/tr>/"
PHP seems to be crashing. I get a "Page cannot be displayed" message from
the browser. I've come across this before, and I just upgraded to 4.3.3, and
no difference.

You need to escape the double quotes in your string at the very least.

Obviously its an example, otherwise the script wouldn't have even parsed.
$regularExpression = '"/<tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF">(.|\n)+?<\/tr>/';
preg_match ($regularExpression, $fileString, $matches)
This regular expression causes PHP to crash for me, not a parsing error.

An error from the browser doesn't exactly prove that php is
'Crashing'. Please look in the system logs for the crash.
Also, in order to be able to reproduce this a small snipplet of
code that can reproduce the 'crash' would be exrememly helpful.

You provided an example that he had to make certain guesses for why
you think php is crashing.

This still is not right. preg will think your looking for
/tr bgcolor=
and will complain about the junk after the second ".

Please provide an exact sample that will cause php crash. And
somebody here will test it for you.

Hi,
I too am running PHP4.3.2 and never took any notice about the session id's
being appended and stuff .. after reading your message I got a little
alarmed, since I'm also using output buffering. So, I turned off my cookies,
restarted my browser and saw that indeed no session id's were appended. Now,
when I checked php.ini, the value appeared to be '0'. That was quite an
explanation. I changed it to '1' and it all worked.
Maybe this makes your problem a little weirder.. But the problem is not on
the PHP version. You might want to check if session.use_trans_sid is really
set to 'On'. If it is, try changing it to '1', restart apache and see if it
works now. Also, check if your cookies are turned off, since with them
turned on, there's no need for php to add the session ID and thus it won't
happen.

Change to:
5. Provide a clear descriptive subject line. Avoid general subjects like
"Help!!", "A Question", etc. Especially avoid blank subjects. Many
people see this as rude and will ignore your mail outright, myself
included.
(Does it make sense to put "urgent help needed!" in your subject? Isn't
everyone's email "urgent" to one degree or another?)
8. It's always a good idea to post back to the list once you've solved
your problem. People usually add [SOLVED] to the subject line of their
email when posting solutions. By posting your solution you're helping
the next person with the same question.

Along these lines, you might want to add :
Do not send your messages high priority, as some people have special filters
for such messages.
Do not request return reciepts, received reciepts, etc.
Do not send attachments
If at all possible, send your message plain text.
Trim as the original post only to the parts that are relevant to your
discussion. No point seeing the same code repeated in five emails.

I'm pretty sure the optional second argument for date is a unix timestamp
that you would generate by using either time or mktime or strtotime. You
are passing it something in the form of Y-m-d, or 2003-08-23 when it is
expecting 1061852640.

Hi!
(MySQL)
What's the best way to determine a sql INSERT statement has executed
successfully?
What I've got is a function whose sole purpose is to add new staff
members to an app. I've written. There's a basic form that the user
fills out (first name, last name, email address) and submits. Only one
record per email address is allowed.
Here is a pseudo code version of what I have right now.
function insertStaffer($fname, $lname, $email)
{
$sql = "SELECT table WHERE email = '$email'";
if(1 or more records are found)
{
return 0; // means email address is already used
}
else
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO table ...";
return 1; // assume record inserted correctly
}
}
Now for my question: Should I just assume the INSERT INTO has worked
correctly (like I'm currently doing) and return a 1? Or should I verify
that the INSERT worked correctly (by using the MySQL last_insert_id()
function)?
Alternatively... maybe the mysql_query() function returns a true/false
status based on what happens? Hmm... I should look into that.
I'd appreciate any advice you have to give.
Thanks,
Chris.

You should use mysql_error() to ensure your query did not fail for any
reason. Assuming the query was successful, you can use
mysql_affected_rows() to see if it actually had any impact on the
database, i.e. the row was inserted.

Legalize is very specific. If the contract didn't specifically state
that rights to the intellectual property would be part of the deal, then
he has merely sold a solution, not the rights to the intellectual
property itself. many companies are contracted for solutions, many
companies retain the rights to their intellectual property after
completion of the solution. Unless the contract is clear, he has done
nothing unethical or unprofessional.

$s_authed = 0; // initialize session flag
----------------------------->>
And after sign up I am authenticating the user in a separate file
and setting a flag s_authed to 1
-----------------------------
//auth.php
if(check for authentication)
{
........
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['s_authed']=1;
}
----------------------------->>
Now in the main.php
I am checking
-----------------------------
//main.php
if($s_authed==1)
{
//Display login form code goes here
}
else
{
display "authentication required";
}
----------------------------->>
This is working fine. Even when I copy and paste the URL to another browser
it is showing authentication required page.
When I used
if (!isset($_SESSION['sessionname']))
{
//Display login form code goes here
}
in main.php
it is not working. I mean that it display the page even when I copy and
paste URL in a new browser window.
Seems like an essay :)
Why is it so.
Is that my previous method was correct or any mistakes I did?

Without really going through your code (sorry) I would hazard a guess that
you are assigning by value, rather than by reference - by default, the '='
operator in PHP passes a copy of an object or variable, rather than a
reference to it. The 'new' language construct does this as well. So do
functions, when they return values. All of this is very annoying and
requires you to liberally sprinkle your code with the '&' that denotes
passing-by-reference.

Can somebody tell me how to pass a value between two php pages within a

I have a simple two column framset: navbar on the left, content on the
right.
I have two pages that are displayed in the content area. Both are PHP pages.
I would like to pass an ID value from the first page(a list page) to the
second (a detail page). I tried renaming the frameset page and associated
links with a php extention but that didn't work.
The link from the list page does contain the ID var in the querystring but
it is not recieved in the display page where I try to echo the querystring
var.
Any ideas?
Does the frameset page need to have a php extention?
Thanks.

Is there any official FTP server hosting the PHP tar balls? I've done a

it's kinda hard to fetch the tarballs since there are no good static

Hey all!
glad to bea here! got alot to learn!
k,
basically i am sending out a mailing list to customers, - using a PHP
script, however the SMTP i am using needs to have Authorization to log into
the outgoing SMTP - i HAVE to use this authentication no if's and ot
butt's., otherwise i will be blocked by Yahooo / AOL and some other provider
for running a relay SMTP as they see it and contirbuting to spammers by
allow anon acces to my smtp.
I know i can put my SMTP server on an internal ip so the outside world can
not see if but that is a bandaid fix for me - i want to know if PHP can use
an SMTP server that requires authotization to use it?
HELP! me searches for this have turned up no results or people simply not

The mail() function does not support authentication. You may want to try
this SMTP class that lets you send messages via a server that requires
authentication.
http://www.phpclasses.org/smtpclass
Use it in conjunction with this other class that lets you compose and
send properly formatted messages:

I believe your looking for the 't' option in fopen.
http://php.net/fopen
It will translate end of lines. Also there is a setting in the
php.ini file called:
auto_detect_line_endings
Which effects the line endings when reading a file with fgets().

Another factor with this is the length of the data is for md5(). If
the data is really long there will be communication overhead, with
md5'ing with php.

Hi I have a tabel that gets populated dynamically from a DB query. Each row
is a seperate record and they all have a checkbox. I want to put a
button/image @ after the table and when it is click ed to determine which
checkboxes have beeen selected. I also name the checkboxes dynamically with
chk being the prefix and the record ID the suffix eg record 56: chk56 would
be the name of that particular checkbox.
If anyone could help with this design issue I would appreciate it!

First count the number of entries($count) to be displayed in the page.
Accordingly assign the names
for($i=0;$i< $count;$i++)
{
$chkval="chkv".$i;
$chkfun="chkf".$i;
echo "<input type=hidden name=$chkval value=off>";
echo "<input type=checkbox name="chkname".$i onclick=$chkfun()>
";
//display record $i
echo "<script language=JavaScript>
function $chkfun()
{
if(document.forms[0].$chkval.value=='off')
document.forms[0].$chkval.value='on';
else
document.forms[0].$chkval.value='off';
}</script>";
}
and upon subbmitting the form
you can determine the checked entries.

Change box names to chk[] and assign the id as the value, so for
example:
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="chk[]" VALUE="56">
to check which boxes have been checked simply traverse through the chk[]
array like this:
$chk_array = $_POST['chk'];
for($chk_array as $chk_key => $chk_value)
{
print 'Checkbox Id:'. $chk_key . ' Value:'. $chk_value .'is
checked';
}
I have not tested this, but it should work.

Which part do you want help with?
The form?
The SQl query?
The whole lot?
My guess is the query
$sql = "
SELECT id
FROM users
WHERE username='.$_POST['username']}'
AND password='".md5($_GET['password'])."'";
It (MD5) can also be done directly in the query as a MySQL function.
