The problem with using (!$_POST['var']) as an expression is that you are
asking the parser to evaluate the expression as a boolean. If
$_POST['var'] isn't a boolean (and it won't be, because unless I'm mistaken
all POST or GET variables are treated as strings unless you cast them) then
the parser does an implicit cast to boolean while evaluating your expression.
This is fine for most cases, but let's say that $_POST['var'] *is* set to
either an empty string ("") or a string containing zero ("0"). Your test
will fail, because both of these are evaluated as FALSE when cast as a boolean.
That's the reason that isset() is a little more general purpose. If you
aren't worried about missing an empty string or a string containing "0"
then you can continue to use the method you have been using.
For more info, see this:
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php#language.types.boolean.casting>

That's the meat of it, then. I wasn't aware of the different types of
evaluation that could be done on a variable (boolean, etc). Okay, I'm
reading that link as I write this. Thanks again.

Check this one out (I use it to define functions for versions of PHP that don't
have wordwrap defined for example):
// Function to determine if the current version of PHP is
// at least the one specified as a string in the parameter.
// This is needed because string comparison isn't always accurate:
// "4.0.2">"4.0.12" as strings, although that's not true when
// speaking of comparing versions.
// Usage example:
// if (!isphpver("4.0.2"))
// {
// [do something]
// }
// Bogdan Stancescu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, November 2001
// You may freely use this function as long as you keep the header
function isphpver($minver)
{
$itis=2; // That is, undecided
$minimum=explode(".",$minver);
$current=explode(".",phpversion());
for ($i=0;(($i<sizeof($current)) && ($i<sizeof($minimum)));$i++)
{
if ($current[$i]>$minimum[$i])
{
$itis=true; // In this case, we have a winner
break;
}
if ($current[$i]<$minimum[$i]) // >
{
$itis=false; // In this case, we have a loser
break;
}
}
if ($itis==2) // This would only happen if all the common version
// components are identical. But there are may be
// differences:
// Example 1: comparing "4.0.1" with "4.0" would be
// identical for now, but the condition
// is satisfied;
// Example 2: comparing "4.0" with "4.0.1" - identical
// for now, but the condition is NOT
// satisfied
{
if (sizeof($current)>=sizeof($minimum))
{
$itis=true;
}

I've read the manual, and I'm still stuck, partially due to the manual
itself. This is the first time I've dealt with this particular issue
(parsing IPTC info from JPEGs).
The example provided in the manual entry on GetImageSize:
<?php
$size = GetImageSize ("testimg.jpg",&$info);
if (isset ($info["APP13"])) {
$iptc = iptcparse ($info["APP13"]);
var_dump ($iptc);
}
?>
Gives me the following error on php 4.0.6:
Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument
passed by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the
declaration of getimagesize(). If you would like to enable call-time
pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in
your INI file. However, future versions may not support this any longer.
I don't understand what I need to pass to getImageSize in order to
extract the IPTC info.
Can someone point me in the right direction with this?
Thanks,
Steven

What this error is saying is that you cannot use &$info ie:
GetImageSize ("testimg.jpg",&$info);
> I don't understand what I need to pass to getImageSize in order to
> extract the IPTC info.
You can try:
GetImageSize ("testimg.jpg", $info);
> Can someone point me in the right direction with this?
If the above doesn't work, then you probably have to change your php.ini as
per error message.
For more info on pass-by-reference see the chapter "References Explained" >
"Passing by Reference".

I'd like a test to see if an image not saved locally exists or not, but I'm beginning
to wonder if there's a way. I've tried:
getimagesize ('http://offsite.image.gif', $info);
if ($info[3] != "")
$title= 'print out image html';
else
$title= 'give some text';
My URL fopen wrapper is enabled... getimagesize doesent work for off site?
My error? or do one of you have a crafty solution?
Thanks for your help!

Also, it was excessive to cross-post to different lists, especially with
this kind of question. It has nothing to do with MySQL. Cross-posting
is really only relevant for certain kinds of important announcements,
and even then probably aren't cool.

Ok. It's me, the last time :-)

Strings created internally are OK.So the solution is:
1) get the string from the file using $str=fread($file,filesize($filename));
2) I realize that in string obtained by fread() the following characters are changed:
#0 () -> #92#48 (\0)
#34 (") -> #92#34 (\")
#39 (') -> #92#39 (\')
#92 (\) -> #92#92 (\\)
3) So solution is before put text into base64_encode procedure, do the following:
$str=str_replace(chr(92).chr(48),chr(0),$str);
$str=str_replace(chr(92).chr(34),chr(34),$str);
$str=str_replace(chr(92).chr(39),chr(39),$str);
$str=str_replace(chr(92).chr(92),chr(92),$str);
4) Now you can encode it.It works.
Futhermore, I was trying to store some string to file using fwrite() method.
fwrite() works fine for all characters except backslash, where you have to
send there double backslash.
So fwrite($file,chr(0)) writes really #0,
but for writing #92 you have to call fwrite($file,chr(92).chr(92));
For writing #0 you can also call fwrite($file,chr(92).chr(48));
( and similary for all four cases stated above in point 3) )
So, a thing, that's all for now
Have a nice day...

WAIT A SECOND! You've got the magic_quotes_runtime configuration variable
turned on! To solve your problem you can:
a) turn off that feature via the the php.ini or .htaccess file
http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.magic-quotes-runtime
OR
b) use stripslashes() on the string you get back from the file
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php

I thought that with 4.1, you didn't need to use session_register(). Rather, you just define the variable you want in the $_SESSION array: $_SESSION['rate'] = $rate; But maybe that's not what you want... ?

I don't have $rate predefined but need to input it manually via a form. It needs to go into the session register, not be read from it. How does one make a manual *form* entry go directly into the session register. That's about the basic idea I think.

--- Begin Message ---There is Zend Cache, it expensive and you have to pay per processor. That drove folks to develop APC (Alternitive PHP Cache) which is open source. http://apc.communityconnect.com/ They take the PHP source and compile it into machine code and stores that code, which saves porcessor overhead when the page is loaded again. APC worked well for me, but that's not where my bottleneck is, mine is with database access so I wanted to cache database queries. I couldn't find any application that did what I wanted so I wrote a class that handles caching queries. In programming it I wanted it to be a transparent as possible and make using it just like using the PEAR mysql module so I could add it to my site with minor modifications. Here is a little on how it works. It checks to see if the query is cached, if not it queries the database. It takes the data returned from the query and stores it in a xml file, which I have on a RAM disk for speed. It returns a result object similiar to the result object from the PEAR mysql stuff. And that object has a FetchRow function just like the mysql result object so it drops right into existing code. It's new and I haven't truely tested it's proformance yet but if you are interested in it. Let me know, I'm positive that people will be able to improve the code in the class which would be cool.

Well, the source for the currect version of that function (as of
4.2.0-dev) is here:
http://cvs.php.net/co.php/php4/ext/standard/array.c?r=1.156
Search down the page for 'php_search_array'--that's the function
which actually does the searching.
Looks like a simple sequential search to me.

You also seem to have an extra equals. Your loop should read:
while (false != ($file=readdir($handle))){
It should come up as an error, but I'm not sure.

I think you could eliminate the "false !=" in the while condition...
It should be just the same if you write
while (($file = readdir($handle)))
right?

No, that's the 'identical' operator, which returns true when its
operands are both equalivalent and of the same type:

Wrong, actually. If you have any files in that directory which have
names which would evaluate as false in PHP, then your way will fail on
them and you'll get a truncated directory listing. Do 'touch 0' in a
directory and give it a shot; you'll see what I mean.
However, the original example does the same thing, since it only checks
whether the result of the readdir() evaluates to FALSE, not whether it
actually is a boolean FALSE value. The correct way to do this is:
while (FALSE !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
. . .
}
Note the !== instead of !=.
Hope this helps,
Torben

if you created a "number" array then just input number between the brackets:
echo $array_name['some_number_goes_here'];
if you want all array values to print:
for ($i=0;$i<=count($array_name);$i++) {
echo $array_name[$i];
}
if it's an associate array then input the name of the array element:
echo $array_name['some_word_goes_here'];

The function you are looking for is 'explode'. It works like this, say you
have a line of text stored in line of say pizza topping like this:
$pizza_toppings = "topping1,topping2,topping3"
and now you want the toppings in an array just do this:
$toppings = explode(",", $pizza_toppings);
then you will have an array $toppings with entries for each of the toppings.
Hope this helps.

I cannot think of why this would be useful--in fact, if you're having to chase the same value around in two or more places, you could have a problem keeping them synced--but hey. :) You could always just store it in a session variable, which I believe is the way it's normally done.

--- Begin Message ---I am trying to create a pulldown menu based on the contents of a directory. Is there any way for PHP to read a directory and create the menu based on the files in that directory. It should create this menu dynamically each time the page is viewed, so if a file is deleted from that directory, it doesn't show up in the pulldown menu, if one is added, it shows up. So if the directory has two files in it, 1-2-2002.txt and 3-5-2002.txt, it will add these entries to the <select> menu: <option value="1-2-2002.txt">1-2-2002</option> <option value="3-5-2002.txt">3-5-2002</option> TIA John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

If you mean "how long it had taken for someone to download a file from your site" then yes. You need to handle file download links yourself. Thus all your download links would have to be of the form: http://www.domain.com/download.php?file=somefile Then your download.php would be in psuedo-code: <? retrieve filename from URL; look up file details (size) in filesystem; start a timer; output the appropriate HTTP headers; read and output the contents of file; stop timer; calculate elapsed time; ?> -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk /* "I'd love to go out with you, but I've been scheduled for a karma transplant." */--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---Hello everyone, I'm a "newbie" when it comes to XML. I need to know if there's an easy-to-understand documentation/tutorial online that will help me understand how PHP and XML work together, what software technologies PHP uses to parse XML/XSLT documents, and how to actually build PHP to have support of these parsers available on the Win32 platform. Can anyone help me find some resources? I went to www.php.net and they assume too much about their audience, and therefore it's hard to understand their documentations sometimes. Thanks in advance. :)--- End Message ---

try 'mysqld --standalone' (note the space)
