[PHP] Re: Attitude of B van Ouwerkerk

Could everyone give a moment of thought and get back to the purpose of this list? I know that this includes myself too, which I apologize for my behavior: Q: How many mailing list subscribers does it take to change a light bulb? A: Thousands! 1 to change the light bulb and post to the list that the light bulb has been changed. 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. 27 to point out spelling and grammatical errors in posts about changing light bulbs. 53 to flame the spell checkers. 156 to write to the list administrator complaining about the light bulb discussion and its inappropriateness to this mail list. 41 to correct spelling in the spelling/grammar flames. 109 to post that this list is not about light bulbs and would they kindly take this email exchange to alt.lite.bulb. 203 to demand that cross posting to alt.grammar, alt.spelling and alt.punctuation about changing light bulbs be stopped. 111 to defend the posting to this list saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts **are** relevant to this mail list. 306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique, and what brands are faulty. 27 to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs. 14 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly, and to ask for corrected URLs. 3 to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this list which makes light bulbs relevant to this list. 33 to summarize all posts to date, then quote them including all headers and footers, and then add Me Too. 12 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy. 19 to quote the Me Too's to say, Me Three. 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ. 1 to propose new alt.change.lite.bulb newsgroup. 47 to say this is just what alt.physic.cold_fusion was meant for, so leave it there. 143 votes for alt.lite.bulb. 27 to post in HTML because they are using the IE or Netscape that had it turned on by default and are too clueless to look. 48 to complain about the HTML posts. 27 to post 'sorry I didn't realize it was on' -- in HTML. 96 to complain about more HTML and post detailed instructions on how to change the setting. 58 to mumble something about using a web browser to read mail. 12 MIME posts with useless colors and bolds saying thanks for the help with the HTML mail. 1 to post a GIF/JPG of the lightbulb hanging too close to his digital camera. 58 to complain about the binary post. 14 to say they liked the binary and didn't mind it. 1 post about how you can M*A*K*E M*O*N*E*Y FA$T! by selling lightbulbs and this report available for only $5. 1328 to reply to the list with the full spam attached and then put 'remove' at the end. 3 to flame the other morons for replying to the spammer and CC'ing the list. 1 from the list admin notifying that the list is looking for a bigger server to handle the load. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Need to retrieve Email and News in a web page? Find a PHP/IMAP HowTo. There can't be an ultimate PHP tutorial from start to finish because, like, unless you actually need LDAP or YP or HyperWave or any of the other rather esoteric extensions there's not much point in forcing them into a tutorial.

My gut says you need setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr') or similar in the French one...
And maybe even 'en' for the English one.
Even if the docs say you don't.
There was another thread recently about setlocale() and the second argument

RE: [PHP] ----- BEING AN ASS CLICK HERE NOT ABOVE!!!!!
Kyle, Apache runs as a background program. When you've installed apache, and php, you don't actually run them from the commmand line. What you have to do is open up a browser window, and point it to your computer. Open up Internet Explorer (you're running windows it looks like), and type in http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost This should bring up a screen saying you've installed apache correctly. If apache is installed in the default directories, then most likely you'll need to put some webpages into c:\apache\htdocs I would recommend making a file called test.php with the following lines in ?php phpinfo(); ? Save it into c:\apache\htdocs now go to your webbrowser, and go to http://localhost/test.php If php shows the phpinfo screen then you've installed everything correctly. If it doesn't work, we'll need to look at your apache settings and php settings. Try the stuff above first, then tell me what happens.

[PHP] Re: timing functions / debug
Does anyone know of any functions / tools / utilities / whatever that can be used to provide a timing of the execution of each line of a php program? I'm guessing this would probably be a test harness or a debug app or something. I've used timing functions to record the execution of blocks of code or entire scripts, but I'm interested in taking it this one step further. What you describe is called a profiler. AFAIK, there aren't any for PHP at this time. The odds on somebody writing one within the next six months now that there are a half-dozen IDEs: A virtual certainty. Meanwhile, some rules of thumb: Your biggest time-sink is your xxx_connect() to the database. Use xxx_pconnect(). P is for 'P'ersistent. The Persistence is on the *database* side, *NOT* in PHP. Usual Stumbling Block: Your database has to be configured to have more possible connections than the number of httpd processes. Stress-test on a development box to be sure you configured everything properly, or be prepared to weep. If you can do it in SQL instead of PHP, do it in SQL. SQL has been optimized to hell and back for decades. PHP is fast, but it's designed to be easy as well, not to rip through a million records in minimal time. If it's something you'd expect somebody else to have needed a whole lot, PHP probably has a built-in custom function for it that will beat the pants off anything you can write in PHP. The previous statements really are not arguable. The next two will undoubtably draw the ire of about 70% of this list. Tough $#!^ [asbestos mode on] Over-engineering your site with forty-leven Object-Oriented class include files is a Bad Idea. Unless you can afford the Zend Cache, in which case you don't care. Over-engineering your site with a Template system so your graphic designer can easily change GREEN to BLUE, but if they want to add a column you have to re-code the damn PHP anyway is stupid. Either re-educate your Graphic Designers to grok a minimal amount of PHP, or have them edit PHP files using an editor that won't screw up your PHP and you can re-edit it after to re-integrate their static HTML as dynamic or have them edit a static sample page and you re-integrat it or design the parts that you just know the Graphic Designer will want to change as a non-PHP include file or... Just about anything other than a Template library is going to end up being lower TCO in the long run. Ditto on the Zend Cache.

[PHP] Re: GET/POST name=value query var convention?
Does anyone know of a more-or-less authoritative source that states that the common convention for HTTP GET/POST queries is a series of name=value pairs joined by characters? I know I'm not just making this up, but I need to persuade someone that it is a commonly-accepted practice. Before you look... it's not in the HTTP RFCs. The W3C weenies and/or some other HTTP specification committee has decided that it should be amp; or ; or somesuch. Reality-check: Every damn browser on the planet uses name=value Why they make these standards up in the first place I dunno. I'd sure appreciate it if they'd focus on putting pressure (or at least nagging) IE and Netscape to agree on a few things that haven't worked properly cross-platform for years now. Of course, PHP will let you use any damn character you please in php.ini and you can always get the full URL passed in (see ?php phpinfo();? output) and tear it apart in any way you see fit.

[PHP] Re: ? about PHP includes
I just discovered PHP this week. I'm reading about include statements. If I have a text file 2000 characters in length that I want to include, I would do this to include to whole file: ?php include (file.txt); ? http://php.net/fopen http://php.net/fread ?php $path = file.txt; $file = fopen($path, 'r') or die(Could not open $path. Try full path or something.); $data = fread($file, 250); echo $data; ? Note that include not only includes a text file, but also executes any ?php ? tags within it.

[PHP] References: in front of functionnames
Hello.
I've read a book, PHP DEVELOPER'S COOKBOOK, with great interest and it's a
great contribution to my bookcollection :-)
There is something I would like to know thoughI have searched through
all my books and sites on PHP, but didn't find the answer
In chapter 16 (Creating a Database-Independent API with PHP) there are some
functions written with a in front of them.
Ex. in DB/standard.php; function db_fetchall($args=array()){ ...
I've seen and used the pass by reference syntax on function parameters but
not on functionnames.
What effect does reference () have when used in front of the functionname??
It would help me a lot to get a fast answer.

[PHP] Re: php
I'm still trying to compress an entire directory on a linux server to be
decompressed probably in windows client. I'm trying to use exec command and
tar (compressor for linux), but I don't know how to do it. Can anybody
pleeeaase help me?
So, like, do they download it later, or is your PHP program supposed to
return the compressed archive?...
Let's assume the latter, cuz that's more fun :-)
Use a URL like this:
http://yourserver.com/whatever.php/whatever.tgz
Your PHP file is whatever.php
That bogus-looking whatever.tgz on the end is because [BLEEP]ing IE 3.mumble
ignores MIME-Type and goes by the URL ending to decide what kind of file you
are returning. MS sucks. Or is it Netscape that does that? Netscape sucks
too.
?php
$path = /path/you/want/to/compress/*;
exec(tar -cz $path, $results, $errorcode);
if ($errorcode){
echo HTMLBODY\n;
echo OS Error: $errorcode. Usually path/permissions. Use 'man
errno' to look up this number if it makes you feel good.BR\n;
# Hmm. You might need a 2S| or similar after the $path above
# to get stderr to redirect to stdout so PHP can get error messages
from tar...
# Any gurus want to comment on how that works, and if 2S| is the
right mojo?
# I hate Un*x some days. :-)
echo Here's what tar had to say, if anything:BR\n;
while (list(,$line) = each($results)){
echo $line, BR\n;
}
}
else{
header(Content-type: application/octet-stream); # Force download
header(Content-disposition: filename=whatever.tgz);
# Is strlen() binary safe?... If not, this next line will mess you
up...
# But without it, the browser can't do that nifty progress meter
during download.
header(Content-length: . strlen($results));
# There's probably more headers you want...
echo $results;
}
?
I know I should test these, but sending a message is easier. :)
If a connect the server using ftp_connect and ftp_login, when I try to
create a directory using mkdir or ftp_mkdir or a file using fopen, will
they belong to me or to nobody???
They will belong to whomever you connected to the FTP server as, assuming
that user can even create files in the first place...
mkdir() and fopen() in your local server will belong to whomever PHP
(Apache) runs as, which is usually nobody, but could have been configred
in httpd.conf to be www or any valid user, including root if you were
incredibly stupid, or, if you run PHP as a CGI and wrap it in suExec, it
would be whatever user suExec is configured to run PHP as, which might be
your real login, or might not. Didja follow all that? :-)

fgets reads a line (i.e. up to a newline) with at most the specified

Use $Text = fread ($txtfile, 250); instead.

This is for a couple of reasons: 1) Newbies may think that their newbie group is read mainly by newbies...so their question either might not get answered at all or will not receive the thorough answer they were hoping for. 2) Being a newbie, they might think that their question is worthy (for lack of a better term) of higher level discussion because, to them, it is a very difficult problem to solve. ...not to mention that questions would then be spammed across multiple mailing lists anyway. Either way, we would still need a PHP General Forum, so I am not convinced that creating more specialized mailing lists would accomplish much more than creating MORE mail traffic (from the spammed questions) and alienating people who used the more specialized lists because most everyone else is still mainly reading the General Forum.

Thanks David,
I came up with this, but it doesn't work. Does text file need to be in a
special format? It is 4 paragraphs of plain text created in notepad.
html

$txtfile = fopen(text.txt, r);
while (!feof($filePointer))

$line = fgets($txtfile, 250);

close($txtfile);

[PHP] Minutes between tow dates
Hi.
I'm using the timestamp format (AAMMDDHHMMSS) on my session.
how can I know the minutes between two dates.
I'm doing:
$date = $row_secao['date'];
$date_now=date(ymdHis);
$x=$date_atual-$date;
if ($x 1000) {
echo Session expired.;
}
but I have a problem when turns the hour, like this:
date=010803105958
date_now=010803110518
the sub is 4500 (45 minutes!), but in fact, the real time between is 6
minutes...
thanks.

RE: [PHP] php date bug ?
I'm in the exact same position. It's definitely not a PHP problem. The problem with the way you're redefining your timestamp is that you may get January 32, June 31st, etc. I'm tempted to simply check for spring-forward and fallback before I advance the timestep, but that's one extra if statement as much as 31 times in one month. 1000 people generating the calendar would create 31000 extra if statements, unless I get a Cache solution. There should definitely be a PHP function for getNextDay(), but until then, I'm going to use the extra if statement. regards, Johnny Nguyen -Original Message- From: Steve Brett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 03, 2001 7:56 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] php date bug ? hi, i've got a calendar and i produce a month sort of outlook / filofax view that shows the user's appointments for that month. the way i was building it was but defining ADAY in the following manner: define(ADAY, (60*60*24) ); once i'd done evrything i needed to do i incremented the timestamp for the day by ADAY. all seemed ok but then one of the users pointed out that October 28th appeared twice and then month had 32 days in for this year. after a bit of head scratching we realised that the clocks go forward (any foreign readers please excuse the rediculous way the british time system works) and technicallay i guess october 24th has 25 hours. thus the time was incremented to a stamp within the same day. redfining the stamp as $start3=mktime(0,0,0,$dayArray[mon],$dayArray[mday]+1,$dayArray[year]); does work however ? is it php or the server that's at fault ?

Have you thought about your database design carefully?
You might want to create a column for item count
eg
id, item name, items in stock
1, frog, 7
if, say a customer orders 3 frogs, decrement the items in stock by 3.
Just an idea...
Do you know about database normalization? How is the database designed?

$db = mysql_connect($db_domain, $db_user,$db_password);
mysql_select_db($db_databasename,$db);

$array[$count]=$resultset [ID];
$count++;

I have tried things like this: $eq = urlencode(=); $URL = http://www.something.com/file.php?thing.$eq.thething;;; I have tried many other combinations as well.. the problem is this: when PHP calls fopen(), it does not allow the = sign in the variable passed in. So I figured I should escape it.. fopen(http://www.something.com/file.php?thing\=thething,r;;); But that did not work either. It allows me to pass it in, but then it tries to open the literal \= in the url, which of course doesn't exist. The url has just an =.

[PHP] thoughts on sessions and members
hey folks, hope the day is treating you well.
here's a programming theory/methodology type question for y'all. i am
relatively new to programming and very new to object-oriented(ness).
suppose i have a site using sessions managed with an object $dog. $dog
contains a member object $dog-member and $dog-member contains a memberid
$dog-member-memberid.
member information (username and encrypted password) are stored in a
database.
my index file begins
require_once(dog.inc); // this is where the objects get defined
session_start();
session_register(dog);
session_register(dog_member_id);
if (!is_object($dog)) $dog = new dog;
i can authenticate a user and carry that user along throughout the session
within $dog-member. a member can also logout, meaning that $dog-member no
longer refers to them. when a member logs out, there is still a session and
valid $dog.
so, what are the favored ways of allowing folks to auto-login?
the approach i've taken is to set a cookie variable $dog_member_id. i assign
their memberid to the session variable $dog_member_id and within my index
file, i have
if (!isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[dog_member_id])) {
if (isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS[dog_member_id])) {
setcookie(dog_member_id,$dog_member_id);
}
}
then, i can check to see if $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[dog_member_id] is set when
someone visits my page by having this in my index.
if ($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[dog_member_id] 0)
$dog-member = new Member($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[dog_member_id]);
if ((!is_object($dog-member)) || (!$dog-member-is_member()))
$dog-member = new Member(-1);
whew!
i had this all working in an older site not using objects, so i understand
the basics of what's going on. i also can get this to work if i check for
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[dog_member_id] within my index file.
i believe i also had this working at one time by checking for
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[dog_member_id] within the dog object constructor, but of
course can't get that to work now :)
is this a good approach? is it possible (should i want) to make this check
within the dog constructor?
what are other approaches?
thanks everyone,
mike

My gut says you need setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr') or similar in the French

After much fiddling, I found that, for some reason, I always need to use the

I then need to pass '' or 'fr_FR' to setlocale(), and all is working.

it doesn't actually submit the form and do the processing like it is

[PHP] Re:[PHP] IF ELSEIF ELSE??
First you should manage your code nicer so that it is easier to read
and troubleshoot. Go through this to find my notes...
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) { exit();}
elseif ($HTTP_POST_VARS) {
if (!$Age) { echo Please enter your age.br\n;
} if
Why would you use elseif above ? you are asking the full question in
the first line
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) { exit();}
if it's NOT then why say elseif, it's else, it's either one or the
other...that's one thing.
so lets change it to this:
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) {
exit();
} else {
if (!$Age) {
echo Please enter your age.br\n;
}
if (!$Email) {
echo Please enter your email.br\n;
}
if (!$State) {
echo Please enter your Location.br\n;
}
(MARK)
} else ( RIGHT HERE YOU DID NOT OPEN THE REST OF THE ELSE )
echo Thanks for your submission.;
( RIGHT HERE YOU DID NOT CLSE THEN END OF THE CONDITION )
so the last lines replacing after (MARK) should look like this
} else {
echo Thanks for your submission.;
}
As you can see keeping the code in this format makes it a lot easier to
see what is being exectued within the condition, allows you to see the
open closes of the brackets, and should have easily let you see you
were missing something.
Hope that explains it

) ) {
Two things, Jack. Enclose 00 in quotes, since it is a string,
but more importantly, use '==' instead of '=' for comparison. I hate it when
I do that :)

[PHP] PHP MyAdmin Error---weird
Hello everyone,
Need some help. I installed phpMyAdmin on this new server and cannot
get it to work. I've installed this tool many times, so i'm pretty
comfortable with the installation process. However, I've never ran into
the errors I am getting today.
The server is Apache+PHP 4.0.6
Error 1) When I first installed phpMyAdmin, I got the following error:
... magic_quotes_gpc is not enabled. phpMyAdmin needs this to
work...
Action:
I had my ISP turned on Magic Quotes in my PHP.ini file.
Now, phpinfo() shows the following settings:
magic_quotes_gpc On
magic_quotes_runtime On
magic_quotes_sybaseOn
error 2)
The above seetings solve the 'error' issues. However, phpMyAdmin now
shows a blank page when I try to access it.
What can cause this ?
Does it have anything to do with magic_quotes being turned on?
...that's what it requested in the first place.
Am I missing something?
Please help.
-John

Unless you're putting the else statement after the if (!$State) which you
would need to subtract the } before the else, but this would give you
undesired results since this is just an else for the !$State statement.
I could be missing what you were getting at.. it's definitely possible :)

First you should manage your code nicer so that it is easier to read
and troubleshoot. Go through this to find my notes...
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) { exit();}
elseif ($HTTP_POST_VARS) {
if (!$Age) { echo Please enter your age.br\n;
} if
Why would you use elseif above ? you are asking the full question in
the first line
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) { exit();}
if it's NOT then why say elseif, it's else, it's either one or the
other...that's one thing.
so lets change it to this:
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) {
exit();
} else {
if (!$Age) {
echo Please enter your age.br\n;
}
if (!$Email) {
echo Please enter your email.br\n;
}
if (!$State) {
echo Please enter your Location.br\n;
}
(MARK)
} else ( RIGHT HERE YOU DID NOT OPEN THE REST OF THE ELSE )
echo Thanks for your submission.;
( RIGHT HERE YOU DID NOT CLSE THEN END OF THE CONDITION )
so the last lines replacing after (MARK) should look like this
} else {
echo Thanks for your submission.;
}
As you can see keeping the code in this format makes it a lot easier to
see what is being exectued within the condition, allows you to see the
open closes of the brackets, and should have easily let you see you
were missing something.
Hope that explains it

Re: [PHP] Re: Left Join extremely slow (MySQL)
explain Use MySQL's built in analyze (describe? SQL statement to see what's taking so long). The statement is called EXPLAIN. You can find it described here: http://www.mysql.com/doc/E/X/EXPLAIN.html I'm betting on one server having an INDEX on the id or ex fields, and the other not. If the following fields are missing indexed your query will be slower. itemid id parentid ex You can check the indexes on tables using SHOW INDEX FROM tablename. If the indexes are missing add them with ALTER TABLE ADD INDEX: http://www.mysql.com/doc/A/L/ALTER_TABLE.html I had been using an INNER JOIN statement for a MySQL query, which worked fine. However, my new ISP does not have the latest version of MySQL. The version they have does not support conditions for Inner Join statements, so I have tried switching to a Left Join instead. However, the Left Join query takes 12.15 sec (which is obviously far too slow). The Inner join statement, meanwhile, completed the query in 0.04. Any idea why?? Here are the two statements (fast): SELECT i.id, i.title, i.description FROM dir_items i INNER JOIN dir_assoc a ON a.itemid=i.id WHERE a.parentid=59 AND a.ex=0 Here are the two statements (slow): SELECT i.id, i.title, i.description FROM dir_items i LEFT JOIN dir_assoc a ON a.itemid=i.id WHERE a.parentid=59 AND a.ex=0 To do an INNER JOIN you simply do SELECT * FROM table_a, table_b WHERE table_a.id = table_b.id http://www.mysql.com/doc/J/O/JOIN.html Exchanging an inner (full) join for a left join might not have desired result.
