[PHP] Flash and php
Hello! I read that the flash-format has been published to all users (see: http://www.macromedia.com/macromedia/proom/pr/1998/flashstandard.html). I was wondering if there is some php-support to generate flash-animations in general. What I'm looking for in particulla is a simple horizontal text-scroller done in flash, but generated with php (to show diffenrent text on different user-inputs for example). Has someone done this before? Martin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

As someone already suggested, you could use:

It works, but still gets First argument to array_push() needs to be an
array and fails before it gets to print_r($authors). Am I doing
something wrong here:
[snip]
What array_push is doing is adding the *whole* array onto the existing array.
What you need is to add the *elements* of the array onto the existing array.
Try this:
$news = mysql_query(select id,AUS from $table);
$authors = array();
while ($mydata = mysql_fetch_object($news))
{
echo $mydata-id.|.$mydata-AUS.hr\n;
$tmp = explode(;, $mydata-AUS);
foreach($tmp as $val) {
array_push($authors, $val);
}
}
print_r($authors);

[PHP] Opening sockets
I'm running GTK on Win32 and have made an app that connects to a server and downloads some data. I tested it over my LAN and it works fine, using both 10.0.0.1 and gethostbyname(amd) as the host in fsockopen(host, 80, 30) I've now tried running it over the internet, trying to connect to the server www.lottery-machine.co.uk or gethostbyname(www.lottery-machine.co.uk) but it won;t connect to the server. The window that displays the downloaded data contains a webpage which is produced by the web host when there's an error of some kind. If I type in the GET request (www.lottery-machine.co.uk/clientlogin.php?username=mepassword=password) in a web browser it works fine as expected. I'm in touch with them about the problem but does anyone know what is causing this? Does the host only accept connections from web browsers or something? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Localization support
Hi! I hope this is right address to get some help about this. I tried many ways to get working locales, but nothing works. My OS is FreeBSD 4.5 and php i use is 4.1.1. I want to get slovenian locale working If I set LC_ALL in my environment and if i type date for example in shell everything is OK, i see date printet in my language. but when i type this i PHP setlocale(LC_ALL, 'sl_SI.ISO_8859-2'); echo pre; print_r(localeconv()); i get output like this Array ( [decimal_point] = . [thousands_sep] = [int_curr_symbol] = [currency_symbol] = [mon_decimal_point] = [mon_thousands_sep] = [positive_sign] = [negative_sign] = [int_frac_digits] = 127 [frac_digits] = 127 [p_cs_precedes] = 127 [p_sep_by_space] = 127 [n_cs_precedes] = 127 [n_sep_by_space] = 127 [p_sign_posn] = 127 [n_sign_posn] = 127 [grouping] = Array ( ) [mon_grouping] = Array ( but it has to be like this Array ( [decimal_point] = , [thousands_sep] = . [int_curr_symbol] = SIT [currency_symbol] = SIT [mon_decimal_point] = , [mon_thousands_sep] = .

There is also strange thig about nameing locales. Somewhere i have to use only sl or slv, somwhere sl_SI or maybe like here sl_SI.ISO_8859-2. Shouldn't be this somehow standard.

[PHP] Lossless JPEG image rotation
Is there a good way to rotate a JPEG image (90°, 180° or 270°)? I tried jpegtran and convert (ImageMagick)... But they both don't really work as expected. Why? jpegtran only workes if used with -trim. But this trims the image (cuts some pixels away), which is not a very good way. ImageMagick's convert isn't lossless :( Any other ideas?

[PHP] SVG page displays correctly, but not when generated by PHP
Does anyone have any idea why I can display a true SVG file successfully in IE 6 with Adobe SVG viewer 3.0, but not when the identical content is generated by PHP. Example: SVGRECT.SVG displays properly (Apache server includes directive AddType image/svg+xml svg): ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 standalone=no ? !DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/DTD/svg10.dtd; svg rect x=10 y=0 width=460 height=50 / /svg However, SVGRECT.PHP, which results in the same page text, brings up a dialog box Would you like to open the file or save it to your computer? Choosing Open causes nothing to happen. Choosing Save results in another dialog box Internet Explorer was unable to open this internet site: ?php header(Content-type: image/svg+xml); echo ?xml version=\1.0\ encoding=\UTF-8\ standalone=\no\ ?; echo \n!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC \-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN\ \http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/DTD/svg10.dtd\;; echo \nsvg; echo \nrect x=\10\ y=\0\ width=\460\ height=\50\ /; echo \n/svg; ? Displaying SVGRECT.PHP from another PHP page using the embed tag works properly. Here's another curious occurrence that may be related: displaying any php page as a local file brings up the Windows Open with dialog, whereas referencing the same page as a URL works. Any insighta you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks. John Gunther -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'd like to actually be able to test whether the email address exists. Nothing is 100%, so don't exclude people because you can't verify them. There are 2 types of email addresse: verifiable unverifiable The 'type' is determined by talking to the mail host of the domain, but this is, at best, an inexact science. Verifiable means that you've connected to the mail host and indicated you had mail for a specific user account and it did not reply back 'user unknown'. That is the best you can hope for, because once that mail system accepts it for delivery, it may still not be delivered to the end user for a number of reasons - no mailbox space left, for example. Or in fact, the specific user account DOESN'T exist, but the mail server is set to accept all incoming mail first, and does more precise error checking at a later time. Unverifiable would mean that the mail server will actually tell you up front that an account doesn't exist, or isn't accepting mail from you, or has a full mailbox, or whatever. So you might be able to tell if an account specifically DOES NOT exist, but you can never be certain that an account actually does exist without completely sending a mail, and hoping that it'll bounce to the right place if there's a problem. The way to do this is to use SMTP to talk to the other mail host - Zend has some code snippets like the one referenced below (probably others, but here's a starting point) http://www.zend.com/codex.php?id=449single=1 Hope that helps some... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Re: Email Verification
Michael, Thanks for your help! Your advice entirely makes sense. Perhaps a good way to use email verification is to alert the user that the address could not be verified, but if they insist, they can still submit it. This probably falls under the 90/10 rule... I'll spend 90% of my time trying to fix a problem that occurs 10% (or less) of the time ;) Thanks for the Zend referral. I'll give it a try. Steven J.

There are 2 types of email addresse: verifiable unverifiable The 'type' is determined by talking to the mail host of the domain, but this is, at best, an inexact science. Verifiable means that you've connected to the mail host and indicated you had mail for a specific user account and it did not reply back 'user unknown'. That is the best you can hope for, because once that mail system accepts it for delivery, it may still not be delivered to the end user for a number of reasons - no mailbox space left, for example. Or in fact, the specific user account DOESN'T exist, but the mail server is set to accept all incoming mail first, and does more precise error checking at a later time. Unverifiable would mean that the mail server will actually tell you up front that an account doesn't exist, or isn't accepting mail from you, or has a full mailbox, or whatever. So you might be able to tell if an account specifically DOES NOT exist, but you can never be certain that an account actually does exist without completely sending a mail, and hoping that it'll bounce to the right place if there's a problem. The way to do this is to use SMTP to talk to the other mail host - Zend has some code snippets like the one referenced below (probably others, but here's a starting point) http://www.zend.com/codex.php?id=449single=1 Hope that helps some... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: encryption and HTTP
Yeah the idea of php md5() hash is for data integrity, by taking a hash of some data and taking a hash of it later, allows you to compare the results and see if the data hash been changed, such as a database value. You have to use some form of client side technology to pass variables encrypted. e.g. using Javascript or implementing SSL. U could always use Java applets. Muz Erik Price [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Without using SSL or JavaScript, is there any way to make an md5 hash or encrypt a string before sending it out as a POST request? It seems that without encrypting the data before sending it, it can still be intercepted. Once intercepted, it doesn't matter if I use md5() on the $_POST['password'] once it gets to the script, because anyone can submit the same intercepted string to the script via POST and it will be md5()ed when it gets there, thus defeating the purpose.

Well, after browsing through the HTTP/1.1 standards I found that an optional header Host after the GET request could be used.

[PHP] creating dropdown lists from fetched arrays.
Hi,
I want to create a dropdown list with options from a table.
ie
HTML
BODY
?php
$sql_select = select * from dropdown_options;
$results = mysql_query($sql_select);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($results);
{
echo option VALUE=$row[col1] NAME=option1
}
/BODY
/HMTL
I know this is basic but it is to give you an idea of what I want.
I have tried to find an example of this in the book I am using to learn to
no result.
I am guessing this is how it works from the info I have read from the book.
Can someone put me on the right path.
Thanks,
Matt.

You can use sockets and connect to their mail server (bit after the @) and
pretend to send an email to them, but cancel the request before you
actually send anything - doesn't always work though, as some servers will
report back the all users are correct
This is the code I use - a bit long though - if anyone can find a better
way, please email me
?
//
if (!class_exists(mail_exchange_class))
{
class mail_exchange_class
{
//
function get_mx_reply($f)
{
$body = ;
do
{
$line = fgets($f, 1024);
$body .= $line\n;
$ch = substr($line, 3, 1);
}
while ($ch == -);
return $body;
}
//
function send_mx_msg($f, $str)
{
fputs($f, $str);

function check_email($email)

// --- check if there's a mail server

if (!getmxrr($host, $mx_arr, $wt_arr))
{
return false;
}
// --- check if user exists at mail server
// --
// try connecting to one of the mail servers
$i = 0;
$num_mx = count($mx_arr);
do
{
$mx_server = $mx_arr[0];
$f = fsockopen($mx_server, 25);
$i++;
}
while (!$f $i $num_mx);
if (!$f)
{
return false;
}
// talk with mail server to determine user validity
$flag = true;
// default to: user exists
$rep = mail_exchange_class::get_mx_reply($f);
// welcome message
$rep = mail_exchange_class::send_mx_msg($f, helo anonymous\n);
// introduce ourselves
$rep = mail_exchange_class::send_mx_msg($f, mail from:$email\n);
// say we want to send a msg
$rep = mail_exchange_class::send_mx_msg($f, rcpt to:$email\n);
// say who it's to
if (substr($rep, 0, 3) != 250)
// check if user exists
{
$flag = false;
// ... now we know they don't exist
}
$rep = mail_exchange_class::send_mx_msg($f, rset\n);
// reset all the buffers
$rep = mail_exchange_class::send_mx_msg($f, quit\n);
// log off from server
fclose($f);
// return status
return $flag;
}
}
}
?
then to use:
$email = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
if (mail_exchange_class::check_email($email))
; // user probably exists
else
; // user doesn't exist, or can't connect to server
I think that's all you need of this code - there's lots more, there's an
email class and an attachment class that goes with it, but it's need to
check the address

Re: [PHP] problem while loop.
Jeff,
Everything you are doing sounds fine, and I don't see any logic problems
with the while loop. However, I really can't extrapolate any further
conclusion without more info. How are you determining that the if
statement is working? As long as this loop is running it should always
echo 'GO!!'.

When I want to get just one record is there an easyer way than using the while loop
that I have been using?

Re: [PHP] [NEWMAN] Collecting information from a my sql table.
The very first record will be the very first time you assign the $row a
query result. So basically:
$row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result);
$row will now only have the very first results data in it, if you want the
next rows data you would just call it again:
$row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result);
Your while statement is just doing this a bunch of times until it reaches
the end of your results.
Enjoy!

fixed the connection problem,
I am still getting no output to the option menu.
The output HTML page looks like this.

if I do a select * from food_type_menu;
at the sql prompt it returns 4 rows. as this is the same sql query I run in
the php script I would expect it to return 4 rows also ? I am a little lost
to why my menu has no options.
Thanks,
Matt.

That looks perfect.
I have adaprted what you sent to use in my test application and I am getting
an error on line 22 which is the $row= line.
Take a look and see if you can spot my error as it all looks fine to me

it does help a little.
I know the html is wrong I used this as an example to what I wanted.
What I need to know is how to use PHP to generate the options in the list
from col1 and show the option 2.
The data for these is got from an array.
so really what I want to know is how to code in PHP
select name=test drop down
option value=col1($row1)col2($row1)
option value=col1($row2)col2($row2)
option value=col1($row3)col2($row3)
/select
you get the idea ?

Matt.

I want to create a dropdown list with options from a table.
?php
$sql_select = select * from dropdown_options;
$results = mysql_query($sql
_select);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($results);
{
echo option VALUE=$row[col1] NAME=option1

Hi!
The problem is simple: wrong HTML
You have to make html code similar that:
select name=gender
option value=Ffemale
option value=Mmale
option value=0not known :)
/select
Hope it helps

[PHP] HTTP Request Headers - PUHLEASE HELP!
I have an infinitely annoying problem. I coded a script which tracks who viewed my profile in AOL Instant Messenger. When they click on a link (AIM inserts their screen name into the URL) the script records it. However, it does not replace spaces in their screen name with %20 like a normal browser would. IIS hates this and just returns bad request. Apache handles it a bit more gracefully, but everything after the space is lost. When I went to phpinfo() however, it displayed the GET header (GET blah.php?blah=wow wow HTTP/1.1). How can my script access the GET header? getallheaders() returns the headers but it excludes the GET line. Thankyou for your help!

[PHP] HTML Email Has Random '!'
Hi, Has anybody every had problems with random characters showing up in HTML email messages? I've set up an auto-responding email system for product purchasing and registration. The system sends multipart HTML and plain text messages using mail(). However, exclamation points are showing up in random places.

[PHP] SAP DB
hi all, One of the binarycloud developers just told me to have a look at the SAP OS database, SAPDB. I'm going to test it tomorrow to see if it actually does what it claims, but this _looks_ like serious OS competition to Oracle, and if it is I would very much like to use it for my next project. So, question: Has anyone used SAPDB with PHP? If so, experiences? And if not, are there plans for drivers? I looked in the manual and I didn't see any mention of SAPDB. Oh, and I just found a mention of PHP on the SAPDB site. Looks like the connection is over ODBC, which I really _really_ dislike... are there plans for anything native? like a sapdb_connect :)? In any case I think this database has a _HUGE_ amount of potential and PHP would benefit if access to SAPDB was possible. please e-mail me directly as I am not subscribed to the NGs: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] thanks, _alex -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Entering data into MySQL
Hi, I'm having troubles entering information from a form into a MySQL database. Specifically if the user enters an apostrophe anywhere in the form, all the information is rejected and nothing is entered into the database. After researching a little on php.net I found the addslashes() command - this did help briefly and I was able to use apostrophe's in the form ... but it seems as the problem has resurfaced. To make matters more frustrating, the addslashes() command works perfectly well on my local test machine (Win2k Pro, PHP 4.1.1, MySQL 3.23.44, Apache 1.3.23) but not at all on the server which is hosted by another company (Sun Solaris, PHP 3.0.16, MySQL 3.22.32, Apache 1.3.12). Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the addslashes() command worked for a short time on the webserver and why it stopped? Or better yet, is there a variation of addslashes() that will work on an older version of PHP such as 3.0.16? I'd be eternally grateful for any prompt replies as its already 2.38am and my deadline is 9am :P Thank you -Tim Thorburn -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Entering data into MySQL
Try doing it by yourself.
$the_str = str_replace('','\',$the_str);
$the_str = str_replace(',\\',$the_str);
This is a little hack until you find what is the problem with addslashes();

[PHP] PHP Frames?
I'm trying to pass vars into a php (html) file that uses FRAMES -- top, main and bottom. The TOP frame has my menu items. The MAIN frame will show the pages, and the BOTTOM frame will have my footer stuff -- Now, when I click on a menu item in the TOP frame I want the TOP and MAIN frames to update. My frame page is named: index.php and it links to head.php (goes in TOP frame), body.php (goes in MAIN frame), and footer.php (goes in BOTTOM frame.) So, what I tried (seems logical enough) is to simply call the INDEX.PHP file with some vars attached, like so a href=http://127.0.0.1/index.php?s=1 target=_topLoad Page/a Within the Index.php Frames Page (which the var gets passed to) the other pages don't seem to recognize the var and simply do nothing -- For example -- in the head.php file I have it update an image if s=1, and in the body.php file, if s=1 a certain page loads -- this all works fine without frames. Any suggestions -- I want to use frames if I can, and avoid Java. Thanks. Jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
