[PHP] newbie question: how to recompile PHP?
Hello all,
I hope my newbie question don't bother you
too much.
I've downloaded the latest PHP for windows
but when I try to use it I get a message
that I have to re-compile it.
("You may disable this restriction by recompiling the PHP binary
with the --disable-force-cgi-redirect switch.")
Can anybody tell me how to recompile PHP?
I suppose I need the sources and a compiler,
where from I can get them?

Many thanks in advance,

[PHP] Re: Help with nested if statements, is this possible?
if ($payment_status = "Completed")
if you do this your if statement is invalid
You should do
if ($payment_status == "Completed")
I mean you should use double '=' inorder to say 'equals'.

[PHP] Programming Methodology Question
Hey -- I have a question for ya'll. I'm writing a fairly substantial program which allows listing of items like real estate, car ads, etc... on the web. Overall, it looks like it'll be around 5-7000 lines long. I was thinking about putting the main guts of it into one big include file to make it easier to upgrade when we release new versions. Is that problematic, to have a php file that large? (I mean, I know it's not THAT big.) Should I break it into separate files, maybe just make a folder replaceable?

[PHP] Problems reading a URL
Hi,
I'm working on a script to read in the results from a search engine and find out a
website's position in the results. I've run into some problems trying to read the
results in from google, it seems no matter how I try to open the page in php it still
won't read the results. I've tried using different functions to read the page, but
all with no luck, it seems that php thinks the page doesn't exist. If anyone has any
experience of a similar problem reading a file, or has any idea's on how to get it to
read (maybe I missed something obvious), please let me know,
Here's some examples of what I've tried so far,
example 1
$fp = @fopen("http://www.google.com/search?q=$keywords&num=10&hl=en&start=1&sa=N","r";);
if ($fp)
{ print"The file exists!";
$contents = fread ($fp,"10");
echo $contents;
}
else
{ print"The file does not exist"; }
example 2
$contents = @join ('', file
('http://www.google.com/search?q=$keywords&num=10&hl=en&start=1&sa=N'));
if(isset($contents)){
echo $contents;
}
else{
echo "The file does not exist";
}
I've avoided using functions like readfile, and fpassthru since they dump the file to
output imediately, and I want to get the page as a string I can search. Hope somone
has some idea's on this,
Thanks,
Steve.

Google is probably trying to give you a cookie. You can verify this by trying
various sites that are known to send cookies and then again with sites that
don't.
You may need to use something more sophisticated like curl, or write your own
function(s) based on fsockopen().

eval() can let your variable contain PHP code in addition to simple text
or HTML. That's what makes it different from just "echoing back the
text". So you could do
$print_statement = "print('test');";
eval($print_statement);
// the output is "test", not "print('test');"
I just learned this function myself.

[PHP] Problem with CGI mode
Hi I need to run some pages on my site in CGI mode for security reasons. I've put #!/usr/local/bin/php at the top of the script in question, and given it the .cgi extension so that apache treats it as a CGI. The script works, but the first thing it does is print out #!/usr/local/bin/php, because that's the first line of the script. If I remove that line, I get an internal server error, because apache doesn't know where php is located.

The query is succeeding, it's just returning an empty set. Try

It's fine for some situations, but it's not *free* for all uses. There are actually quite a number of scenarios I come across where PDFLIB isn't a 'free' package, but requires someone to pay.

If anyone can answer this, that'd > be great. I did discover over the weekend that it is possible to use a single XSLT stylesheet to perform a transformation on multiple XML documents, but this requires that each XML document have its own URI to do so -- obviously this won't work in my case, since I'm pulling the XML documents as multiple results from a database query. So that option is out. I have thought about this problem and the answer is simple -- no, there is no way to perform a single XSLT transformation on multiple concatenated XML documents if those documents contain XML declarations at the top of them. Why? Because multiple concatenated XML documents with XML declarations != a well-formed XML document, which is a prerequisite for the XSLT processor. (Essentially, the processor didn't like encountering a second XML declaration in the concatenated string, since a rule of well-formedness is that if there are any XML declarations, there can be only one and there cannot be any characters before that declaration in the document.) So that leaves me with this question -- (A) should I run the XSLT process on each individual result that comes from the query? (B) Or should I concatenate the XML documents as I have, use substr_replace() to change all XML declarations to "", and then prepend a single XML declaration to the beginning of the string and perform the transformation on this new string?

You are not actually posting the form to a page with your PHP on... so its

either check if the form has been posted before running your PHP, or split

If you are inserting a value into a string-type column, then it must be
quoted. I recommend you change your query to look like this:
$query = "INSERT INTO news (newsid,
title,
author,
body,
posted)
VALUES($newsid,
'$title',
'$author',
'$body',
UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
)";
I've made the (possibly incorrect) assumption that your newsid column is
not a string-type column, so I didn't quote the variable -- but you
could, and it should still insert as normal.
And yes, you can structure your query this way for legibility since
whitespace is ignored (if you want).

RE: [PHP] Please help with code
You CANNOT execute the PHP script until the form is submitted. You are attempting to do both at the same time. Second, ALL your text fields muse be surrounded by quotes in your INSERT statement. Third, use NULL, not UNIX_TIMESTAMP() to insert a timestamp field. In the following, assume the name of your script is "thisscript.php". -Original Message- From: Denis L.

}
$foo = "Yes, I'am Very Awsome";
$foo = test($foo);
echo($foo);
// echo's, Yes I\'am Very Awsome

Eric,
Isnt there really no need for the 'return' though?
$test ($var)
{
addslashes($var)
}
$foo = "He's dreaming";
$foo = test($foo);
print($foo);
//should also print He\'s dreaming
Am I incorrect in thinking this?

Re: [PHP] PhP & Javascript Mixed Repost Fields
That seems like over complicating the problem to me.
Why not just include the original query string that was passed from
fooa.php by:
header("Location:foa.php?$QUERY_STRING")

[PHP] Delphi & PHP Programming
I need someone who knows about Indy Components and PHP programming.
I use a TidTCPServer which is active at port 4250 listening 4
connections.
When i connect from another machine in my LAN, using PHP, the TCPServer
tells me, that's right...
The problem is when i want to read a text from the client (PHP).
TCPServer tells me that a message came, but it doesn't shw it to me.
Following is the code i use.
procedure TMainForm.TCPServerConnect(AThread: TIdPeerThread);
begin
MessageDlg('User has connected from web', mtInformation, [mbOK], 0);
end;
...
procedure TMainForm.TCPServerExecute(AThread: TIdPeerThread);
Var
Msg:String;
begin
{ Get the text sent from the client }
Msg := AThread.Connection.ReadLn;
MessageDlg('Message received: '+Msg, mtInformation, [mbOK], 0);
end;
...
This is PHP code (connect.php)
$errstr ($errno)\n";
}
else {
if (empty($field_msg)) {
echo "Message: ";
echo "";
echo "";
}
else {
echo "Message sent to Server!";
fputs($fp,$field_msg);
fclose($fp);
}
}
?>
...
Does anyone what may be wrong with this?
When user sends message from web i see the Server @ 10.0.0.8 showing me
a message dialog

BUT I CAN'T SEE THE MESSAGE...

When in doubt, tell it to print your SQL statement to the browser screen, and paste it into the MySQL command-line client. Between your own eyes and the MySQL CLI's error messages, you'll get your answer. Or, at the very least, print out mysql_error() when you get a database error. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Parsing error
It looks like you've got a closing curly bracket "}" for your switch
statement, but not for your while statement.
Also, have you read up on the switch statement? Keep in mind that if
something matches your case 1, it will also fall through and execute
case 2, case 3, etc... unless you include break statements. e.g. try
this:
switch ($row)
{
case 1:
{
$vignette = $data[$c];
break;
}
case 2:
{
$photo = $data[$c];
break;
}

[PHP] Connecting to multiple DB's
I host a few sites, and on usually each site will have it's own MySQL database in the background. I've decided that I want to link one site to another, and need to connect to more than one database at a time. I've found that when I try to connect to 2 or more, even if I assign the other database to another variable (ie . $db1 = @mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass); $db2 = @mysql_connect($dbhost2, $dbuser, $dbpass); ) , the last connect called is the only one that is active. Any work arounds to this? I've been having to do it where I connect to one when needed, then connect to the other, etc. I'm thinking there has to be a better way to do this.

Both connects are "active".
you specify which link when you select the database:
mysql_select_db("database_name", $db1); mysql_select_db("database_name",

If you don't have the & in the function declaration, then the function
operates on a copy of the variable. This is normally more useful, when you
don't want functions messing with your variables, but instead doing things
with them to produce new information (which you get back via return).

Why not just create an anchor ID at the top of the page, and then make
the header argument point to that? This will work on more browsers than
"_top" anyway. Like so:
// this is the HTML page you want to point to
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
Test
// and this is your PHP code

No, this won't work because you're not returning a value. You need to
either have a return statement in this function that says "return $var;"
or you need to use the & sign, which lets you change the value of a
variable outside the namespace of the function. Or scope. I forget
which it is.
Try your above code -- it shouldn't work.

[PHP] strange file handle problem
Hi there,
Ok - This is the error I get,
Warning: 2 is not a valid File-Handle resource in
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/mm_edit.php on line 359
But this is the code... I marked line 359 where it attempts to call fputs
for the first time. I can't seem to understand how this is failing. I really
think it is not the code. I am really stumped.
function write()
{
global $db;
global $domain;
//Notice that I exit if it can't open the file... That is not the
//the problem
if(!$domainfile=fopen("/tmp/$domain", "w"))
{
die("Failed to open domain file");
}
echo("DEBUG /tmp/$domain -- $domainfile");
$result = $db->Execute("SELECT * FROM addresses WHERE
domain='$domain'");
if ($result === false)
{
die("SQL Failed");
}
while(!$result->EOF)
{
list($dom,$ext)=split("\.",$domain);
$virt_address=$result->fields[1];
$dest=$result->fields[2];
$default=$result->fields[3];
echo("DEBUG $virt_address $dest $default");
list($virt_user,$virt_domain)=split("\@", $virt_address);
list($remote_user,$remote_domain)=split("\@", $dest);
//If the destination is a remote address and this is a NOT a
default
if($remote_domain && !($default))
{
//this is line 359 - the first call to fputs
fputs($domainfile, "$virt_address");
echo("$virt_address");
fputs($domainfile, ": $virt_user$dom$ext\n");
echo(": $virt_user$dom$ext");
if(!$courierfile=fopen("/tmp/.courier-$virt_user$dom$ext", "w"))
{
echo "Could not open file";
}
fputs($courierfile, "$dest\n");
fclose($courierfile);
//If the destination is a local address and this is
NOT a default
}
elseif(!($remote_domain) && !($default))
{
fputs($domainfile, "$virt_address");
fputs($domainfile, ": $remote_user\n");
}
//If it's a default we don't care where it is going, just
write a .courier-domext-default with the address
//And stick line in the the domain file that looks like this
"@dom.com: domcom-default"
elseif($default)
{
fputs($domainfile, "$virt_address");
fputs($domainfile, ": $dom$ext-default\n");
if(!$courierfile=fopen("/tmp/.courier-$dom$ext-default", "w"))
{
echo "Could not open file";
}
fputs($courierfile, "$dest\n");
fclose($courierfile);
}
$result->MoveNext();
system("mv /tmp/.changes /tmp/$domain");
#system("/usr/local/sbin/changewriter $domain &>

fclose($domainfile);

[PHP] exec/system on FreeBSD help?
I've been trying to figure out why a command like exec()/system() works fine
under windows and it doens't seem to run on FreeBSD. I've got a script that
generates a latex file, runs pdflatex, and then moves the pdf file into a
"reports" with a link on the generating page. Works fine on Win2k but when I
try to run it on the BSD machine, it doesn't look like the commands are
getting issued, or that I can't run the commands because of file
permissions. I've chmod'd the dir for the website and that didn't seem to
help. I tried some small script like exec("ls -la") and that worked. I then
tried system( "/usr/local/bin/pdflatex temp/report_file" ); to try and
diagnose the problem, and got "Fatal Error occured, I can't write on file
'report_file.log', suggesting that there might still be some permissions
problems. Maybe this is a apache thing?
Any ideas?

You close $domainfile the first time through the loop.

Are you sure temp/report_file is where you think it is? May be safer to
use an absolute path.

[PHP] Question on Using fgets for Network I/O while Limiting Amount of Data Retrieved
Hi,
I'm trying to limit the amount of content retrieved with fgets when pulling
data from a url. I'm generating page extracts and only need the first 2K to
4K. What I'm finding is that when I limit fgets, I get NOTHING but run
within a while loop, I get the whole string.
What works:
//retrieve the page from the Internet
$file = @fopen ("$url", "r");
// bcg need to add error handling so if website is offline, page is
still logged and retrieved later
if (!$file) {
//log error
//need to write logging code
}
else {
//load the file into a string var
while (!feof ($file)) {
$string = $string . fgets($file, 4096);
}
}
What fails:
//retrieve the page from the Internet
$file = @fopen ("$url", "r");
// bcg need to add error handling so if website is offline, page is
still logged and retrieved later
if (!$file) {
//log error
//need to write logging code
}
else {
//load the file into a string var
while (!feof ($file)) {
$string = $string . fgets($file, 4096);
break;
}
}
I've done it with and without the while loop, tried if tests and such. Its
strange.
Thanks in advance

[PHP] Re: parse error, mysql select
Error is absolute. Don't use " (double quotation mark) in yur queries. Use ' (single quot.) instead $query = "SELECT DATE_FORMAT( exp_date, '%W, %M > %d, %Y') AS thedate from tifrequest where user='$user' limit 1,1"; Because the preprocessor think that your string is finished when it sees a double quot. And use a colorful editor. that helps u seeing errors like this. :) martina "Robert McPeak" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > When I execute from browser I get a parse error, but when I enter the > query directly into a MySQL command prompt I get a successful return. > Can anybody see the problem with this code: > > $query = "SELECT DATE_FORMAT( exp_date, "%W, %M > %d, %Y") AS thedate from tifrequest where user='$user' limit 1,1"; > > > Thanks!

It's not clear what would be right in your case because you don't state what you'd
like the code to do for you. But anyway, the extraction from the DB is not complete
(neep more PHP code after you get the result handler). From the way that you have your
SQL query, it seems that you have a table with columns name/address/city/state. If XML
is not your only output format, then that's OK. But if this data will see the light of
day only as XML, then you might as well store it as plain text in a single field. Of
couse you won't be able to order by the name on the SQL side this way :-) But you can
parse the entries on the PHP side after you retrieve them and then sort them.
Just my 2c.

Are you familiar with something called "partial decomposition"? I'm not
sure where it came from, but Google suggests that it may have been
conceived by Daniel Appelquist, the author of a book called "XML and
SQL". I read this book a few weeks ago -- it's expensive, and slim on
content (see my mini-review below), but covers a topic that everyone
seems very interested in. I was elated when Google pointed me to this
article on the theory of partial decomposition (by Appelquist) but
dismayed to find that he didn't submit it in time for a conference, and
so it is not actually found at this link:
http://www.idealliance.org/papers/xml2001/papers/html/06-05-02.html
But I'm sure it's the same idea he puts forth in his book.
Partial Decomposition:
The idea is that you store your information in an XML document, and then
take the most-searched information and store it in a database with some
kind of relationship to the document (either store the XML document in
the database or store a URI to the XML document in the database). In
this fashion, you can use the power of SQL to search for your data, but
have the data itself stored in XML to take advantage of XML's features.
The important thing to remember is that the data in the columns should
ONLY be used for searches, and the XML is where the data TRULY lies,
otherwise you can violate data integrity. It is not a good scheme for
data that is regularly changed or updated -- for this you are better off
storing your data in the usual way. Also, some of the methods for
ensuring data integrity are not at this time possible in MySQL (he uses
Oracle and SQL Server for a lot of his examples), though you can ad-lib
it with your application (i.e. in PHP) if you are dilligent and are
careful not to make changes to your database without going through the
proper channels to ensure that data integrity is maintained.
It is no substitute for a true XML database, since it is just that -- a
"partial" decomposition of your data (and thus is only "partially"
searchable), and won't work for every application. But you may wish to
check out Appelquist's book.
(* my mini-review of "XML and SQL" by Daniel Appelquist: Well, there
aren't a lot of pages, the text is huge, and the book still costs US
$40.00. Kind of ridiculous. This is further exacerbated by the fact
that only 80% of the book actually revolves around ideas of using XML
with SQL, and much of the rest of the book focuses on the process of
developing a web application by taking user surveys and
scenario-role-playing etc, or introducing some of the fundamentals of
XML which are available all over the rest of the bookstore. Excellent
topics, which IMHO do not fall under the topic of 'XML and SQL'. The
book also discusses at length some of the XML features of Oracle and SQL
Server, so I kind of skipped over these sections -- I'm a MySQL fan.
Is it worth reading? The middle few chapters, which deal specifically
with partial decomposition, are interesting. But is it worth $40? Not
unless your employer is paying for it, or if you are looking for a
general book on developing web applications. In fact, it should
probably have been called "Developing Web Applications with XML and
SQL", and if it had then this review might be more forgiving.)
To answer your question, I'm not so sure that I would go about it the
way that you have -- it seems that you are echoing an XML file from SQL
information. There's nothing wrong with this, but simply echoing it to
the screen is probably more useless than just echoing the data in some
meaningful format -- such as a paragraph or a list. HOWEVER, if you
were storing the data in a file, or a string to be sent out as a SOAP
or XML-RPC request, then that makes more sense.
Still, you want some advice? First, your SQL code won't work as it
is -- you've forgotten a mysql_fetch_* function to pull the data from
the $sql_result. So, add to your code:
while ($xml_data_row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_result)) {
$xml_document = '
' . $xml_data_row['name'] . '
' . $xml_data_row['address'] . '
' . $xml_data_row['city'] . '
' . $xml_data_row['home'] . '
";
echo $xml_document;
}
This saves you a ton of typing and even makes your code look better.
HTH,
Erik

Re: [PHP] PHP/MySQL/XML
Shoot, kind of an important error I made in the code I gave you
earlier -- the closing quote for $xml_document should be a single-quote,
not a double-quote as I wrote.
Sorry,
Erik

[PHP] RE: PHP/MySQL/XML
OkThanks to all those who are helping me (sorry for cross-posting)...
My scripts are working great except for one thingwhen it queries the db
there are some fields that have a NULL value, thus when it writes the XML
file it does this:
What I would like to do is either place an in the XML tags for all
of these NULL fields - can I do an if / else statement in the code I am
using below??
$phone_list = fopen("/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/test/phone_list.xml", "w+");
fwrite($phone_list, "\n");
fwrite($phone_list, "\n\n");
fwrite($phone_list, "\n");
fwrite($phone_list, "\t\n");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result))
{
$name = $row["name"];
$ext = $row["ext"];
$title = $row["title"];
$home = $row["home"];
$pager = $row["pager"];
$cell = $row["cell"];
$email = $row["email"];
fwrite($phone_list, "\t\t\n");
fwrite($phone_list, "\t\t\t");
fwrite($phone_list, "$name");
fwrite($phone_list, "\n");
fwrite($phone_list, "\t\t\t");
// would need an if / else statement here
fwrite($phone_list, "$ext");
// end if / else statement here
fwrite($phone_list, "\n");
}
fwrite($phone_list, "\t\n");
fwrite($phone_list, "");
fclose($phone_list);
?>

[PHP] PEAR vs. ADODB
Hey folks... Does anyone out there have a feel for how widely distributed the PEAR libraries are? I want to add DB abstraction to my project, but I don't want to use PEAR if it's going to horribly inconvenience all the people out there on managed servers. Has any played around with the ADODB libraries? What do you think? -- jon -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
