Re: [PHP] String format problem
In fact, this is a poor example since the difference gets larger with longer string and more arguments. When you use dots, the interpreter has to actually concatenate the string, looking for memory to do so and freeing it up afterwards. This takes time. With commas, each argument is sent to the output stream as soon as it is found, no further processing is needed in between. I have been wondering about this topic for a few months now, so thanks for this fascinating explanation. Is this the only difference between using . and , as concatenation operators Then the single vs. double quotes: echo 'uno ' , ' dos ' , ' tres ': 0.94 echo uno , dos , tres : 6.76 Notice that when variables are involved, the difference in between echoing with arguments separated with commas and separated with dots is more than 9 times faster for the commas.Using double quotes with variable expansion is almost 4 times slower than the commas, but is still faster than concatenating them externaly with dots. Using heredoc-style strings is not so bad compared to double quotes. Never heard of heredoc before. What is it for? I have read http://uk.php.net/types.string and can only imagine that it is for laying out complex or long strings more clearly So, if you are sending out the rule would be: Use echo, not print. Separate arguments with commas. Now, if you are not using echo, for example, concatenating to a variable, the best is to use variable expansion inside double quoted or heredoc strings. Concatenating with dots is more than twice as slow. Satyam -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] ID based on position?
Auugh!! Why would you want to do this? You're flying in the face of relational database theory and practice. Position of a record in the table is, or should be irrelevant. Agreed - position is a notional concept. The data is stored physically in some sort of order, but what order that is is the database's business, not yours. It could be subject to change when upgrading, and it is very likely to differ on different platforms or RDBMSs. You should also be aware that unless you use an order by clause in your select statement, you don't have a guarantee that all RDBMSs will return the records in the same row. I don't know exactly what you want to do, perhaps you can provide more details? What if you have twenty thousand records, or two hundred, and the 45th record in the table is deleted? Fetching an ID from anything beyond that record, based on the order of insertion (position), is instantly broken. Please rethink what you want to do, and if you are not familiar with relational databases read some of the excellent tutorials available on the 'Net about them and their design. It's pretty straightforward, common sense stuff -- but you can back yourself into an awkward corner. Regards - Miles At 07:54 PM 8/31/2005, Gustav Wiberg wrote: Hi there!

[PHP] fread and fgets (network streams)
On the php.net you can read the following about fread: fread() reads up to length bytes from the file pointer referenced by handle. Reading stops when length bytes have been read, EOF (end of file) is reached, or (for network streams) when a packet becomes available, whichever comes first. Is this true with fgets also? The when a packet becomes available part that is. I´m guessing for network streams means when the handler is not a local file but a remote file, right? Why i´m i asking this? Well because i have a script wich now uses fread to get a remote file and would like to change this to fgets but i´m afraid i will bump into truble if i do since the part about waiting for a packed to become available sounds pretty important when dealing with remote files, right?

Re: [PHP] String format problem
Wow! Fantastic rundown Satyam! Thanks for posting such a complete analysis. I had no idea that you could use commas instead of periods to join multiple strings much less do it without concatinating, that's very interesting. I don't think I've ever seen that used in any sample code before. I'm wondering if it's common enough that it'll stay around or if it'll become deprecated at some point (or is it new to PHP5? I havn't upgraded yet). I'd hate to start using it then have to go back and fix all my code when it gets cut. (Any thoughts/info anyone?) I feel somewhat vindicated now at my use of echo blah $something blah versus print 'blah ' . $something . ' blah', which is the standard used in the code I inherited. hah Anyway, thanks again Satyam for the rundown. It's greatly appreciated. -TG = = = Original message = = = [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To elaborate on Philip's response (which is correct)... [] I've read never use double quotes unless you have to because it could potentially speed up PHP a little because it won't be trying to interpret every string. I once did some trials with thousand repetitions of segments of code with different alternatives, so let me go through all of them since I have the numbers anyway. The original was in Spanish so I'll just give the results. The question started with using echo or print and, as the manual says, echo is, indeed, faster: echo uno $f tres : 3.04 print uno $f tres : 3.70 The numbers after the colons are the execution times of one against the other for a lot of repetitions, anyhow, they should be read as relative to one another. Next, most people don't know that echo accepts multiple arguments separated by commas. Separating the arguments with commas is faster. echo 'uno ' . ' dos ' . ' tres ': 1.32 echo 'uno ' , ' dos ' , ' tres ': 0.94 In fact, this is a poor example since the difference gets larger with longer string and more arguments.

RE: [PHP] Saturdays and Sundays
Hi, Is it possible to get the number of saturdays and sundays for a given month / year? Thanks for your help. Hi Shaun, Not sure if there's a graceful PHP solution (there probably is, but can't think of one, myself, right at this moment) but it sounds like what you might need is a calendar table in your database. This is a common approach to solving a number of date-related issues, of the type you're asking about. A typical structure might be Recid (int autoincrement) Date (datetime) Year (int) Month (int) Day (int) Day_name (varchar) Month_name (varchar) Etc.. A record for today's date would then look like: 1, '2005-09-01', 2005, 9, 1, 'Thursday', 'September' There are a number of other fields you could add, depending on your needs (financial_quarter, for example, if your site is a business application, week_num and so on) You would then write a routine that would populate the table with appropriate values for any given time period (10 years into the future, for example) and thus would be able to very simply perform operations like: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM date_info WHERE year=2005 and month=9 and (day_name='Saturday' or day_name='Sunday') Again, there may be a better solution in PHP, but any date-intensive application would probably benefit from the above approach. In particular, it becomes very useful when you use the recid value for the date from your calendar table in application data tables instead of the actual date, allowing you to perform very flexible queries where you might be interested in sales results for all the Thursdays in every September for the last 5 years, etc. Regards, Murray --- Lost in thought... http://www.planetthoughtful.org -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Help: Get the value of pi up to 200+ digits?
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.precision
precision sets the number of significant digits, *NOT* the number of
digits displayed after the decimal point.
If you want to get pi out to 16 decimal places you need a precision
of *17* because the beginning 3 is a significant digit.
Your code does exactly this, displaying pi with 15 decimal places.

the result is the same as 16!!!

since only the total number of saturdays/sundays is what he wants to
know, you can use some clever math. Basically, the amount of saturdays
in a year is:
floor(365 (+1 if it's a leap year) (-days from january first to first
saturday) / 7);
and sundays = saturdays (-1 if the modulo from the top one is 0)
I can't quickly come up with a way to find out what day in the first

Re: [PHP] CookieMonster
You can.. Dont include the expire argument.. or set it to 0. You sure? The manual says (last sentence): expire The time the cookie expires. This is a Unix timestamp so is in number of seconds since the epoch. In other words, you'll most likely set this with the time() function plus the number of seconds before you want it to expire. Or you might use mktime(). time()+60*60*24*30 will set the cookie to expire in 30 days. If not set, the cookie will expire at the end of the session (when the browser closes).

Re: [PHP] Help: Get the value of pi up to 200+ digits?
Hi -
The 'precision' ini value refers, I believe, only to float numbers, not
BC_math numbers (which are stored as strings). I believe the bcmath.scale
parameter is the one you need. It can be set via ini_set or bcscale() -
http://php.he.net/manual/en/function.bcscale.php
Perhaps you could tell us *why* you need pi to 200 digits. If it's just for
display, I'd simply define it as a string somewhere in your program:
define('PI_LOONNNG', '3.1415927...8468');
However, I would guess that doing math using the BC functions at that
precision would be extremely slow. Going to a dedicated math package like
MATLAB or Mathematica or something might be more appropriate.

If you want to get pi out to 16 decimal places you need a precision of
*17* because the beginning 3 is a significant digit.
Your code does exactly this, displaying pi with 15 decimal places.

Re: [PHP] Re: Saturdays and Sundays
Here is an another approach.. if you glance at a calendar, youll notice that
the only times there are 5 sats in a month, is when the 1st of 30 day month
falls on a fri or sat.. or in a 31 day month, a thur, fri, or say..
So, you could simply test the weekday the first of the month has, and the
number of days in the month.. and the num of sats in the month is either 4..
or 5. :)

Hi,
Is it possible to get the number of saturdays and sundays for a given

Thanks for your help.
Here's another way to do it. Each function will return either 4 or 5. If
you
need both Saturdays and Sundays, just call both functions:
?
function get_saturdays($month, $year) {
$sat = 4;
// time stamp of noon on the first day of the month
$first_day = mktime(12, 0, 0, $month, 1, $year);
switch ($month) {
case 1:
case 3:
case 5:
case 7:
case 8:
case 10:
case 12:
if (date(w, $first_day) 3) {
$sat++;
}
break;
case 2:
if ((date(L, $first_day) == 1) (date(w, $first_day) 5)) {
$sat++;
}
break;
case 4:
case 6:
case 9:
case 11:
if (date(w, $first_day) 4) {
$sat++;
}
break;
}
return($sat);
}
function get_sundays($month, $year) {
$sun = 4;
// time stamp of noon on the last day of the month
The following line referenced a variable in the other function. DUH!
It should be:
$last_day = mktime(12, 0, 0, $month, date(t, mktime(12, 0, 0, $month,
1, $year)), $year);
switch ($month) {
case 1:
case 3:
case 5:
case 7:
case 8:
case 10:
case 12:
if (date(w, $last_day) 3) {
$sat++;
}
break;
case 2:
if ((date(L, $last_day) == 1) (date(w, $last_day) 1)) {
$sat++;
}
break;

Very nice explanation. :-)
It is a common misconception that header('Location: ...') redirects the
client as soon as that statement is executed. The Location header is
only special in the sense that PHP also modifies the response status
code (to 302). Aside from that, it's just a regular header, and the
browser can't possible take any action on it before it receives the HTTP
response (which isn't sent until your PHP script completes). This is
similar to how a browser can't predict when you're going to set a
cookie. :-)
Just to counter my own explanation (what the heck), I do recall older
versions of IE mishandling (surprise) an HTTP response such as what
Jasper illustrated. They would request the new URL but fail to set the
cookie as requested. It was a browser bug, and I think this bug is the
source of all the confusion.

That's a bit misleading. The HTTP response headers are sent a soon as
you output something from your script (calling header() or setcookie()
doesn't count as output, so you can set all the headers and cookies you
want). It doesn't wait for the end of the request unless you are
buffering everything. And the browsers tend to redirect right away once
they get this header. Whether or not your script runs to completion
once the browser is gone is controlled by your 'ignore_user_abort'
setting. See chapter 40 - Connection Handling in the manual for a full
explanation of that.

RE: [PHP] conditional statement inside while loop?
Hello everyone,
I'm using a while loop to display a list of people contained in my
database.
I'd like to assign different font colors to each depending on which city
they're from, but I can't seem to get an if/elseif/else statement to work
inside the while loop. Is there another way to do this?
Hi Zach,
There should be no reason why you can't use if/elseif/else within your while
loop. The fact that you're experiencing problems strongly suggests that you
have a combination of conditionals in your if/elseif/else that is
effectively ignoring the data being returned from your recordset.
It may be something as simple as using = in your if statement instead of
== (ie, so the conditional is always true, because you're using the
assignment = operator instead of the evaluative == operator), or a
combination of conditions, each of which are accurate but which when placed
together cause problems.
To get an idea where your problem is occurring, try going from simple to
complex. Start with something like the following pseudo-code:
while ($row = get_data_from_your_recordset){
if (strlen($row['a_recordset_field']) 0){
echo Data found: . $row['a_recordset_field'] . br /;
} else {
echo Data not foundbr /;
}
}
The assumption being made above is that you will be using a field from your
recordset that contains data that is ordinarily longer than 0 bytes.
Doing the above will demonstrate that at the very least you are returning a
valid recordset and that conditional statements work within while loops. If
even this fails, then check the SQL that is being used to populate the
recordset, and make sure that you are using the same field names in your PHP
code as is being returned from the table by the recordset.
Once the above is working, add back in your actual conditional(s), one by
one. You're looking for the point where 'working' code becomes 'broken'
code. Most of the time when you debug in this way it becomes obvious why the
code isn't behaving the way you expect it to. If there's still any confusion
at that point, at least you will be in a better position to supply actual
code to the list, so we can work out the real problem.
Much warmth,
Murray

[PHP] Allowing access to only one host/referer
Hi there, i was wondering how I could allow access to a script from another server/host only ? Its prob a silly question but i guess get their host ip ? The thing with that is one server which is a webpage has a javascript popup to load the script on the other server, and i believe that in this scenario it doesnt send referer info.

If you're on Apache and have .htaccess files enabled, put this in: Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from [allowed_ip] Obviously replace [allowed_ip] with the IP address. You can also do partial IPs, whole networks, and other cool stuff.
