[PHP] PHP as an Apache module

2001-08-26 Thread Chris

I have PHP 4.06 and using it as an Apache module, but for some reason I
cannot get my changes to take effect after I change something in the
PHP.ini file. I've tried to restart Apache, restart Windows98, nothing.
But if I run as a CGI, the changes are there in the phpinfo()!

Any help with this would be great...

[PHP] Splitting 1 Colomn into 2

2001-08-26 Thread HTTP-404

Hello
Thnx for your last replies, looks like i need more help with php now.

I have this code:


function displayCategory(){

  include ('admin/config.inc.php');
  $connection = mysql_connect ($host, $username, $password);
  if ($connection == false){
  echo mysql_errno().: .mysql_error();
exit;
  }
  $query = select ID,Category from sections;
  $result = mysql_db_query ($dbase, $query);

  if ($result){
echo table border=1;
echo trtdbCategory/b/td/tr;

$numOfRows = mysql_num_rows ($result);

for ($i = 0; $i  $numOfRows; $i++){
  $ID = mysql_result ($result, $i, ID);
  $Category = mysql_result ($result, $i, Category);
  echo trtda

Re: [PHP] The future of PHP

2001-08-26 Thread Zeev Suraski

At 05:36 26-08-01, Manuel Lemos wrote:
The first problem is technical. You just keep developing PHP to satisfy
the user needs as soon as you perceive them and that's it.

I think we're doing that nicely, but it's quite true that meeting the 
technical needs is not enough.

The second problem is marketing. It doesn't matter for people that have
to make the decisions how much better PHP in fact is if people don't
hear about it. Even if they hear about it, it may not be enough if they
hear much more from the rest (Java, ASP.Net, C#, , whatever).

Here PHP looses bigtime. You may not want to believe me, but I am afraid
that unless PHP is better marketted, soon or later its market acceptance
will be weakened.

I think you're right here also, but only to a degree.  PHP has reached (or 
is quite close) to the critical mess it needs to penetrate the suite of 
'accepted solutions'.  As in, solutions which are covered by analysts and 
that exist within large organizations.  It's true that it took it some 5 
years or so to make this penetration (and it took .NET about -2 years), but 
that is the price you pay when you don't have gigantic marketing budgets to 
compete with.  Undoubtfully this is a problem, but the bottom line appears 
to be that we managed to overcome this, despite the lack of resources.

That's not my point. Some marketing is better than no marketing at all
which is what you do today. There are plenty of ways to do some
marketing on PHP that don't even cost money to you.

I don't think it's fair to say that there's no marketing today.  Well, 
forget fair, but I don't think it's accurate either :)  There are several 
good PHP sites, and there are a few companies advocating PHP as 
well.  Analysts are starting to cover PHP, and it's a fairly important 
landmark in PHP's penetration to the family of industry-adopted solutions.

At any rate, suggestions will be welcome.  I've seen the Web Developer Ring 
you suggested, and I think it's worth thinking (the reason I'm not going 
wild with enthusiasm is that I think it also has drawbacks, not only 
advantages).

oh, man Linux was a different story. Expecting a similar future for PHP
I'm afraid it may be wishful thinking. PHP is mostly focused on Web
development. Web market is fading out.

I agree with the first part of the paragraph, but completely disagree with 
the 2nd.  Web is not fading out, the .COM era is.  Web, as a medium, is 
here to stay, and on the long run, it's going to grow to be much larger 
than what it is today.

As for the similarities and dissimilarities of PHP and Linux, I think it's 
fair to say that it's pretty difficult to predict the way things will go 
with PHP in the enterprise, but I doubt it'll happen in a similar way to 
that of Linux.  Linux 'made it' when huge corporations like IBM started 
using it and advocating it, after smaller companies (like RedHat) managed 
to create enough hype to 'wake the giants'.  It's unlikely that such a 
giant will make the same choice with PHP, even if we just look at it from a 
statistical perspective.

Even if you can do non Web programming with PHP, most people are not
aware of that. You need to do some marketing to put in evidence that PHP
is as much capable for non-Web programming.

Given the fact that I don't see the Web going anywhere, I strongly 
disagree.  PHP's strength is in its focus to provide a good Web development 
framework.  Losing that focus would be a bad idea.
Projects like PHP-GTK are nice and for certain audiences they're also quite 
useful, but it's very wrong to assume that PHP's future lies in 
there.  There are too many languages in the world, including ones which are 
much more capable than PHP in the GUI programming area, and if we move the 
focus to this front, we're going to fight a lost battle.  In the Web front, 
on the other hand, we're doing quite well.

There you have another big problem that is there is no affordable way to
compile and generate executables from PHP programs. I know that
historically you never liked this ability into PHP programs, but that is
a vital need for people that will want to distribute their programs like
VB or Delphi programs.

If you mean native executables, then I have to disagree with you yet 
again...  I don't think native executables are the thing that's holding PHP 
back.  It's a direct deduction from my view that PHP's main course is the 
Web environment, where native executables simply do not make sense.
If you mean something else, I'll be happy to discuss this with you over 
personal email :)

if $p is already a unix timestamp (as per your output) I don't know why you are

[PHP] show number of search results

I'm trying to figure out how I can show the following on my search results

Currently, I have a limit of 10 results printing on a page using offset.
I figured out how to program the pages to know what page of the results its

it harder than it really is.  Any suggestions or leads would be greatly

[PHP] Re: zlib1.1.3 and ob_gzhandler

2001-08-26 Thread Ralph Deffke

Are you shure u sending the right http header?

your discription sound like the browser receives the wrong header information,
respactively the wrong mime type. if you use the right mouse button and say show
image, all browsers don't care about the mime type and try to evaluate the data
content and find the appropiate helper application. make shure the header is
something like
'octed-stream/JPG' or octed-stream/GIF (i'm not shure if this is the exact
syntax for the mime types, refer to HTTP 1.0 spezification for detaisl)

Martin Helie schrieb:

 Hello everyone,

 I'm a newbie here, so please forgive me if this topic has been discussed
 previously (I could find no mention of it).

 I recently compiled PHP4.0.6 with gd1.8.4 and zlib 1.1.3 and experienced no
 problems --except! If you use ob_gzhandler as your output handler, you'll
 want to make sure any image functions you use in PHP return valid images for
 Netscape (I tried Netscape Communicator 4.7 on Linux, Irix and Windows and
 got broken images). Funny thing is, if you right-clicked on the image and
 did view image, the browser would show it correctly.

 After much frustration, I realized that using _no_ output handler (at least
 not ob_gzhandler) solved the problem.

 I assume this is due to a different way of gzipping data in either PHP or
 zlib from previous versions.

 I hope someone finds this information useful -- or can provide the real
 explanation, maybe even a better solution.

because you joining two tables and you get as many results per users.name =

 This can not be done with php, it has to be made on the client side,
 with java/javascript/dhtml or something.
 The easy way should be to use a frameset, where one frame contains the
 image with the scroll.

  All,
 
  I've been coding a PHP page that listens for a connection from an embedded

  PHP pages...).
 
  I've having a problem that I can't seem to solve.  The embedded
  application does not set a Content-Type header on the POST, so PHP fails
  with the following error:

  I've tried setting 'Content-Type' in $HTTP_POST_VARS, using mod_rewrite in
  Apache to change the content-type (with the -T flag) and looked at all the
  options in php.ini.  I'm using PHP 4.0.2 w/Apache 1.3.12 (if you couldn't
  tell from the sig above...)
 
  Nothing works correctly.  The mod_rewrite trick would work, but it makes
  everthing to that URL text/xml, including the PHP script, which no longer
  executes.  I look on the mailing lists here and on usenet, but I don't see
  a good solution...
 
  Anyone have any ideas?  At this point, I'm thinking of re-writing my code
  in Perl or Python since there seems to be no solution to this problem.
 
  Note that it's PHP that rejects the request, not Apache.  I don't see why
  a missing content-type should do this.  It should just default to
  text/plain or something.
 
  Anyway, thanks for any help.

{
$drec = dbase_get_record_with_names($dbf,$x);
foreach ($drec as $nome)

Re: [PHP] How to create thumbnails?

?php
Header(Content-type: image/jpeg);

$src_img = imagecreatefromjpeg($fileURL);

$aspect=imagesy($src_img)/imagesx($src_img);

$new_w = $thumbSize;
$new_h = $new_w * $aspect;

imagecopyresized($dst_img,$src_img,0,0,0,0,$new_w,$new_h,imagesx($src_img),i
magesy($src_img));

imagejpeg($dst_img,'',$quality);
?

All you need to go is set up $fileURL and $thumbSize and this *should* work
flawlessly.  When you get it working try using Resampled instead of
Resized - but you need gd 2.0.1 for that to work, and even then it has
issues it would seem.

unless you expect the file to have three extensions at once, you
probably mean  for each of the places you wrote ||.

or you could do this:

 At 05:36 26-08-01, Manuel Lemos wrote:
 The first problem is technical. You just keep developing PHP to satisfy
 the user needs as soon as you perceive them and that's it.
 
 I think we're doing that nicely, but it's quite true that meeting the
 technical needs is not enough.

Right.

 
 The second problem is marketing. It doesn't matter for people that have
 to make the decisions how much better PHP in fact is if people don't
 hear about it. Even if they hear about it, it may not be enough if they
 hear much more from the rest (Java, ASP.Net, C#, , whatever).
 
 Here PHP looses bigtime. You may not want to believe me, but I am afraid
 that unless PHP is better marketted, soon or later its market acceptance
 will be weakened.
 
 I think you're right here also, but only to a degree.  PHP has reached (or
 is quite close) to the critical mess it needs to penetrate the suite of
 'accepted solutions'.  As in, solutions which are covered by analysts and
 that exist within large organizations.  It's true that it took it some 5
 years or so to make this penetration (and it took .NET about -2 years), but
 that is the price you pay when you don't have gigantic marketing budgets to
 compete with.  Undoubtfully this is a problem, but the bottom line appears
 to be that we managed to overcome this, despite the lack of resources.

The merit of what was achieved without financial resources is not in
question. What is in question is what could and can be done even without
financial resources to make PHP be more accepted than it is today.


 That's not my point. Some marketing is better than no marketing at all
 which is what you do today. There are plenty of ways to do some
 marketing on PHP that don't even cost money to you.
 
 I don't think it's fair to say that there's no marketing today.  Well,
 forget fair, but I don't think it's accurate either :)  There are several
 good PHP sites, and there are a few companies advocating PHP as
 well.  Analysts are starting to cover PHP, and it's a fairly important
 landmark in PHP's penetration to the family of industry-adopted solutions.

I don't think we have the same understanding of what is marketing. For
me, marketing is being proactive in terms of promoting something before
the potential market. Seeing people advocating PHP or analysts covering
PHP here and there is not proactive at all. It is a result of the
evolution of PHP capabilities, but it was not something that was
especifically planned.

What I mean is there is a large potential market for PHP for which there
is no specific plan to address, not just in technical terms, but rather
in the message that that market is (not) getting about PHP suitability
for their needs.

You need to first watch the market and spot areas where people could be
using PHP but their are not, realize why they are not using PHP to
finally do something about it. As I said, it is not a technical problem,
but rather a people problem. 

 
 At any rate, suggestions will be welcome.  I've seen the Web Developer Ring
 you suggested, and I think it's worth thinking (the reason I'm not going
 wild with enthusiasm is that I think it also has drawbacks, not only
 advantages).

I don't know what drawbacks do you see, but let's discuss it openly.


 
 oh, man Linux was a different story. Expecting a similar future for PHP
 I'm afraid it may be wishful thinking. PHP is mostly focused on Web
 development. Web market is fading out.
 
 I agree with the first part of the paragraph, but completely disagree with
 the 2nd.  Web is not fading out, the .COM era is.  Web, as a medium, is
 here to stay, and on the long run, it's going to grow to be much larger
 than what it is today.

Ok, it is not fading out, but it is fading, meaning it is no longer the
exciting thing that it seemed to be and was attracting some many people
from everywhere.


 
 As for the similarities and dissimilarities of PHP and Linux, I think it's
 fair to say that it's pretty difficult to predict the way things will go
 with PHP in the enterprise, but I doubt it'll happen in a similar way to
 that of Linux.  Linux 'made it' when huge corporations like IBM started
 using it and advocating it, after smaller companies (like RedHat) managed
 to create enough hype to 'wake the giants'.  It's unlikely that such a
 giant will make the same choice with PHP, even if we just look at it from a
 statistical perspective.

Right, so be it, PHP will have to grow in the market without any giant
force behind it, at least for now. Let's consider that one extra
challenge for PHP future.

 
 Even if you can do non Web programming with PHP, most people are not
 aware of that. You need to do some marketing to put in evidence that PHP
 is as much capable for non-Web programming.
 
 Given the fact that I don't see the Web going anywhere, I strongly
 disagree.  PHP's strength is in its focus to provide a good Web development
 framework.  Losing that focus would be a bad idea.

Is there (or is it in process of...) any kind of certification for PHP.

I live in Brazil and have been developing with PHP+Mysql for over a year, 
but there are no courses around here... none. And in part, it's because 
there is no certification, or proof of any kind from a respected or 
well-known organization.

[PHP] Re: How to show specific records of a Dbase file

2001-08-26 Thread Er Galvão Abbott

I've solved it!

You have to put the field name of the DBF, not the array position. I
don't know exactly why, but it worked for me.

So the code is:

for ($x = 1; $x  $quant; $x++)
{
$drec = dbase_get_record_with_names($dbf,$x);
echo $drec[NAME]br;
}

Thanks a lot for your help!

Best regards

Instead of foreach(), try something like

Re: [PHP] ftp_get

2001-08-26 Thread Chris Lambert

It looks like you might not have permissions set for the web server to
create files in /web/...

If you know the names of the files which will be transferred ahead of time,
you can manually create them from FTP or your shell, then chmod them to 777.
Otherwise you might be better off creating a folder (/web/ftp/) and chmoding
the folder itself to 777.

Re: [PHP] MySQL Database backup

2001-08-26 Thread Chris Lambert

The easiest way would be to call mysqldump from PHP (system, exec,
backticks, whatever) and pipe it to a file, all from the command line. This
would backup the core data in the form of valid MySQL statements. If you
have several indexes, this method will actually produce smaller files as
well.

It depends on how the webserver is setup. If its being run as a CGI then it
depends if suEXEC is enabled. If its not, it should be run as nobody,
whereas if it is (and the user/group paramater in httpd.conf is set) it'll
be run as whatever the directive is set to. If its run as a module, then the

Thanks for your answer Chris,

What I want to do is find a way to check if a script is running as a cgi or
not.
Suppose I am running it from a unix shell (sgi) then I want the script to
behave differently than when executed by a Web Server. I was wondering if
there is an enviroment/php variable that can help me identify whether the
script was sgi or web running.
Thanks again.

  My question - is this going to work for a few thousand emails?

 Depends on your server.

  What
  about 100,000?

 No way.

  Would it be better to send the mail directly to the
  smtp server?

 Yes.

  Can you foresee any problems?

 Several.  The first one is you didn't read the archives or look for
 pre-existing code to talk to SMTP directly. :-)

 Manuel's upperdesign.com has one, and there are plenty of others.  You
could
 roll your own -- I did, so it can't be too tricky. :-)

 Also, at that volume, I think you're going to run into trouble just in
 talking to the all the SMTP servers.  I *BELIEVE* one major speed-up can
be
 achieved by sorting the outgoing emails by their recipient's domains...

 You may want to research how real mailing list software deals with this
if
 you actually expect to hit 100K addresses.

 If they're all the same email, you'd be *WAY* better off just interfacing
to
 majordomo, ezmlm, SmartList, or whatever other mailing list software was
 designed to handle this.

 instead for this -

Re: [PHP] The future of PHP

2001-08-26 Thread Zeev Suraski

At 23:02 26-08-01, Manuel Lemos wrote:
I don't think we have the same understanding of what is marketing. For
me, marketing is being proactive in terms of promoting something before
the potential market. Seeing people advocating PHP or analysts covering
PHP here and there is not proactive at all. It is a result of the
evolution of PHP capabilities, but it was not something that was
especifically planned.

Well, that's not quite true.  The analysts that are beginning to show 
interest are a result of efforts being made in certain companies.  As for 
advocating, I specifically mentioned companies and not people, which is 
what makes it pro-active.  I think our definitions for marketing are quite 
similar :)

  At any rate, suggestions will be welcome.  I've seen the Web Developer Ring
  you suggested, and I think it's worth thinking (the reason I'm not going
  wild with enthusiasm is that I think it also has drawbacks, not only
  advantages).

I don't know what drawbacks do you see, but let's discuss it openly.

Well, not all of the sites are of the same quality and enjoy the same 
maintenance level.  Such sites may have a good audience and may be a good 
service, but they won't necessarily do a good job at presenting PHP.  They 
may (will) also overlap in content, which would also not look very 
professional either.
Things like that are usually not that simple, or in other words, they're 
easier said than done.  If done sloppily, they can have a negative 
effect.  And doing them correctly requires substantial efforts.

Ok, it is not fading out, but it is fading, meaning it is no longer the
exciting thing that it seemed to be and was attracting some many people
from everywhere.

I disagree even with the toned-down version :)  I think that the Web as a 
medium is one of the most promising infrastructures around.  True, the hype 
is gone, but that's a good thing.  I don't think the hype moved anywhere 
else, it's just gone (for now :)

It is not a matter of loosing that focus, but rather enlarge the focus
of PHP that is adverstised for things that some people are already using
it seriously.

By definition of the word focus (well, almost), there's no real way to 
'enlarge' it without losing it.  We can play with words forever, though :)

Anyway, lets just concentrate on the Web development focus. Web
development is not just Web scripts that are served by the Web server.
Web development is also, installing and maitaining applications and also
run processes that run separately from the Web server.

You know you can run PHP from the command line to do things like run
database installation scripts or run cron scripts that execute periodic
tasks.

The truth is that most people are not aware of this. They think PHP can
only be run from the Web server to serve Web pages. I was suprised by
the number of people that was telling me that Perl is better for running
scripts from the command line. Duh?! Why? Because nobody told them
otherwise! This very wrong perception of the current PHP user base needs
urgent fixing! The fix needs not to be applied in PHP, but rather in PHP
users minds. PHP needs to be advertised as tool than can run scripts
from anywhere, like any other language. For starters, drop the
designation of PHP CGI version.

Could be.  The truth is that PHP *is* lacking in command line features if 
you compare it to Perl, because it was indeed never brought up to be a 
command line tool...

If people are already using PHP that way for serious purposes, why
neglect that it can be used that way? That only lets other languages
take over a space that PHP has already conquered.

I'm not saying it won't happen, but I've yet to see projects like PHP-GTK 
being used 'seriously'.  To make it clearer, I've yet to see an application 
which is actually written in PHP-GTK, and is being distributed or 
sold.  The day may come, but unlike the Web ring where we hold a huge 
chunk, I find it very hard to imagine seeing PHP taking a considerable 
chunk of the GUI market, ever.

The way I see, most people tend to only use one language at once. If
they see an alternative to PHP not only serves well for Web programming,
but also for non-Web programming, PHP will loose its user base there. It
is a matter of time until a lot of PHP people will start seeing it that
way.

It's really an issue of different opinions.  I think our focus should 
remain on the Web ring, because we can't enlarge it without losing it.  We 
can foster additional projects, such as PHP-GTK, improved command line 
features, etc., but the way I see it, if you want to define PHP in one 
sentence, the best qualifying one would still be 'A Server Side, HTML 
Embedded Scripting Language' (sorry Andrei ;).  It's true that it can be 
used in other ways, but that's the focus, and the rest are useful 'exceptions'.

No, I mean executables that may be just like VB executables that
basically contain PHP code compiled into Zend bytecodes or whatever is
enough for most people 

[PHP] can you prompt for variables in command-line CGI?

2001-08-26 Thread Derek Sivers

for a SHELL SCRIPT using php binary:

in bash I would do this:

#!/bin/bash
echo -n username: 
read username
echo -n password:

echo $username
echo $password

Run on the command-line, it would stop and ask me for the username and 
password, then continue the bash shell script.

But in PHP, how would I prompt someone at the command-line for input?

Re: [PHP] ftp_get

2001-08-26 Thread MBK

The user i use to login has full permissions
When i login with an ordinary ftp client using that user, then i can do
anything.
I think when there is a permission problem the error would say that.

 It looks like you might not have permissions set for the web server to
 create files in /web/...

 If you know the names of the files which will be transferred ahead of
time,
 you can manually create them from FTP or your shell, then chmod them to
777.
 Otherwise you might be better off creating a folder (/web/ftp/) and
chmoding
 the folder itself to 777.

 How exactly does ftp_get work?

 I tried it several times, but it always said something like
 Warning: error opening /web/destinationfile.html in .scriptlocation.. on
 line 38

 line 38 has: ftp_get($conn_id, $destfile, $remotefile, FTP_BINARY);

 Can someone please help me with this.

[PHP] getting values inside PHP from outside script

2001-08-26 Thread Scott Mebberson

Hi Guys,

I want to write a script that retrieves quote prices off the ASX (Australian
Stock Exchange) and then adds it to the database.

I think the only way I can do this is by using the yahoo finance query.
I need to know how I can call a string within my PHP script and then get the
results. The results are returned in a comma delimited format. Any ideas?

use
http://au.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=NABm=af=sl1d1t1c1ohgve=.csv to
see the results.

thanks

Scott.

Its uncommon for people to have used more than one dedicated server
provider, simply because they're a bit on the expensive side and likewise
comparitive reviews are hard to come by. However, I have used Communitech
years back and have had only bad experiences with them.

Re: [PHP] Certification

 I don't think Brainbench is exactly what I was looking for... but thanks
 anyway.

 BTW... has anyone taken the Brainbench test?
 Is it difficult?

I did, it is not that difficult. It can tell you if a future employee really
knows PHP.
But as an employer myself, I would never rely on such a test to check if a
programmer
is qualified.  I would check general programming knowledge and problem
solving,
something that these test can't do. (at least not the one I took)

Re: [PHP] The future of PHP

2001-08-26 Thread Robin Chen

This is very true.  I have a few ideas that I want to sell, but the only
way that I can do it with PHP is to give out the source, and the user is
expected to know how to install PHP and set up the script.  If I can
compile the PHP script, then I can sell the executables.  The users
would only have to copy the package into a directory and use it like a
cgi, and I won't have to worry about people looking into my codes.

Having executable takes care of 2 concerns I have if I want to sell a
solution.  First, with an executable, users don't have to install PHP on
their system to use my solutions.  Second, users cannot see my code.

Manuel Lemos wrote:

 
 No, I mean executables that may be just like VB executables that

 A lot of people give up PHP because it does not provide affordable
 conditions to let them sell whole applications that others can't still
 their code, when they can just spend only US$100 or less in VB, Delphi,
 Java, Kylix, etc... suite and compile programs that they can distribute
 or sell to others without risking their business.
 
 There are a lot more other things to say on these subjects, but these
 should give you enough to think for a while. :-)

Yeah, well like I said, if you don't have shell access, use system() or

If you use the ext/ext_skel mechanism for creating your extension

 Any helpful hints and ideas are much appreciated. Thank you!

There will probably be different levels of error reporting in the two 
php.ini files.

view is an index of the array $HTTP_GET_VARS, and is apparently not 
defined at that part of the script.
