Firstly, something regarding accessing form/query string variables, on
diffferent versions of PHP. Starts to become a nightmare, but
you also want
to make sure you _aren't_ requiring register_globals to be on...
so what I do;
function Form($var = null)
{
if (function_exists('version_compare')) // added in 4.1.0
{
return @$_POST[$var];
}
global $HTTP_POST_VARS;
return @$HTTP_POST_VARS[$var];
}
This seems unnecessarily complex -- $HTTP_*_VARS did not go away when the new $_*
superglobals were introduced, and are not likely to anytime soon, so the simple way to
do this is just to continue referring to $HTTP_POST_VARS[$var].
Cheers!

The docs say: In many occasions, you may want to compare the same variable (or expression) with many different values, and execute a different piece of code depending on which value it equals to. This is exactly what the switch statement is for. TRUE is an expression, and so can be the subject of a switch statement. The docs show a single variable and checking the case of that variable. Admittedly all the examples in the manual use a single variable, but from the first sentence of the switch description: The switch statement is similar to a series of IF statements on the same expression. ... I think it's reasonable to deduce that the parentheses after switch can contain any legitimate expression. Admittedly, all the examples in the manual use a single variable -- perhaps you might want to submit a Documentation Problem bug report suggesting some more complex examples.

Using switch would be more efficiant as it would stop once a
match is made
(if you use break), but with eleif statements each one is evaluated in
order.
Not sure that's true -- a sequence of elseifs will also stop evaluating once one of
the conditions has evaluated to true. The essential difference is that a switch/case
structure is a repeated test against a single value (possibly derived from an
expression), whereas an if ... elseif sequence can test multiple completely disjoint
conditions.
$chr = substr($a,$i,1);
switch (TRUE) {
case $chr == á || $chr == à || $chr == ã || $chr == â:
$a = str_replace(substr($a,$i,1),a,$a);
break;
case $chr == é || $chr == è || $chr == ê:
$a = str_replace(substr($a,$i,1),e,$a);
break;
}
Actually, I'm not sure that's a good example, either! I'd have thought it was better
written as:
switch (substr($a,$i,1)) {
case á:
case à:
case ã:
case â:
$a = str_replace(substr($a,$i,1),a,$a);
break;
case é:
case è:
case ê:
$a = str_replace(substr($a,$i,1),e,$a);
break;
}

[PHP] XML fopen($url)
Reading Remote Files With FOPEN:
This appears to be quite a common problem for installations that run a
really tight ship. I am trying to do some XML and have a slight problem:
My hosting company does not allow for file sockets. I assume that this
means that allow_url_fopen will not work.
Example
?php
if (!($fp = fopen($url, r))) {
die(could not open XML input);
}
?
NOTE: This works fine if the file is local.
The following is supposed to work by overriding the default php.ini but
sadly, does not work on my installation.
Sample Newsfeed in XML format
Or setting the ini file:
?php
$feed = 'http://slashdot.org/slashdot.rdf';
ini_set('allow_url_fopen', true);
$fp = fopen($feed, 'r');
$xml = '';
while (!feof($fp)) {
$xml .= fread($fp, 128);
}
fclose($fp);
The result is either getting a message stating that the file could not
be opened or that the file does not exist in the directory. The file
pointer does not seem to recognize the scheme (http) versus file
protocol sometimes?
My question is, has anybody got a reasonable work around for reading
remote files from an http server (must be port 80 not ftp port 21) that
does not require using any commands from the file sockets set (fopen,
fsock...)
OR...
What am I missing here to get the fopen to work when fsockets are NOT
ALLOWED.
NOTE: Yahoo Web Hosting is my provider. They have not yet responded to
my query regarding file sockets and their policies. I cannot change the
PHP installation so I may be not be able to do XML at all.
Any thoughts or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

I believe you are incorrect. Switch will look for the first case statement
that is true and execute that statement. The following works - case one is
incorrect so it doesn't get executed but the second case does. Paste this
into a test.php file and you will see it works.. Read the manual.
$a=2;
$b=4;
switch (true) {
case ($a $b) and ($b 5):
echo Incorrect;
case ($a == 2):
echo Correct;
}
So my original question is still stands. The switch statement is correct,
but there is a problem with my conditional statements.

Subject: [PHP] Another problem with conditional statements
Hi,
This should be as simple as breathing, but not today. I have two variables
$a and $b which I need to compare in a switch statement in several
different
ways, but no matter what I do it's wrong.
This is what I have tried, can someone tell me how it should be.
TIA
switch (true):
case ($a == $b): This one seems simple enough.
do sum stuff;
break;
case ($a $b == 124): This appears not to work.
do sum stuff;
break;
case ($a == 124 $b == 755): If $a is equal to 124 and $b is equal
to
755 then it should be true..doesn't work.
do sum stuff;
break;
case ($a == 124 $b != 124): Nope, this doesn't appear to work
either.
do sum stuff;
break;
endswitch;

Your question sounds like you're wondering if the

leave it as $email and use $email within the function.
This is just how functions work, you pass in values.
So:
function foo ($email) {
print $email;
}
foo($_POST['email']);
// Or as you used to do with register_globals
foo($email);
Or you could always just do:
function bar () {
print $_POST['email'];

This is why they are SUPERglobals, because this is
what you would have done in the past (old school):
function baz () {
global $email, $HTTP_POST_VARS;
print $email;
print $HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
}
Also it's worth mentioning that $HTTP_POST_VARS has
existed since PHP 3, so just in case that might be
important to you too. It is not super.
Now if you don't care if 'email' comes from GET, POST,
or COOKIE ... you could use $_REQUEST['email']. Or,
import_request_variables() is another option. For
example:
import_request_variables('p', 'p_');
print $p_email;

Re: [PHP] syntax to reference $_POST within function
You don't need to import the request variables for that to work. The
variable names in the function definition have no relationship to
variables outside of it. Most likely, you're calling with something like:
check_banlist($banlist,$p_email);
but you could also call it with:
check_banlist($variable_with_a_totally_different_name,$another_oddly_named_variable);
or call it with
check_banlist('some string','another string');
or even call it with
check_banlist($banlist,$_POST['email']);
so importing the request variables is pointless. What you call the
variables inside the function doesn't have anything to do with whether
there is a global variable with the same name!

3, so just in case that might be important to you too. It is not super.
Now if you don't care if 'email' comes from GET, POST,

import_request_variables() is another option. For
example:
import_request_variables('p', 'p_');

Re: [PHP] syntax to reference $_POST within function
This is a very important point to understand, I tried (and
failed) to explain it. I think Leif made it pretty
clear though, here's another :)
// $a can be anything when you call the function
function bar ($a) {
print $a;
}
bar ('Hello World');
bar ($_POST['something']);

You don't need to import the request variables for that to work. The
variable names in the function definition have no relationship to
variables outside of it. Most likely, you're calling with something like:
check_banlist($banlist,$p_email);
but you could also call it with:
check_banlist($variable_with_a_totally_different_name,$another_oddly_named_variable);
or call it with
check_banlist('some string','another string');
or even call it with
check_banlist($banlist,$_POST['email']);
so importing the request variables is pointless. What you call the
variables inside the function doesn't have anything to do with whether
there is a global variable with the same name!

This is what I had been trying to accomplish but was writing it this way:
function check_banlist($banlist, $_POST['email']) {
Maybe you could also point me to the lesson that needs to be learned
here. Is it that it is an array? or syntax?

First, read this:
http://www.php.net/variables.external
Second, assuming you have a PHP version equal to
or greater than 4.1.0 and the method of the form
is POST, you'd do something like this:
$banlist = array('[EMAIL PROTECTED]');
echo check_banlist($banlist, $_POST['email']);
Your question sounds like you're wondering if the
function definition should change, it doesn't. You
leave it as $email and use $email within the function.
This is just how functions work, you pass in values.
So:
function foo ($email) {
print $email;
}
foo($_POST['email']);
// Or as you used to do with register_globals
foo($email);
Or you could always just do:
function bar () {
print $_POST['email'];
}
bar();
This is why they are SUPERglobals, because this is
what you would have done in the past (old school):
function baz () {
global $email, $HTTP_POST_VARS;
print $email;
print $HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
}
Also it's worth mentioning that $HTTP_POST_VARS has existed since PHP

[PHP] Strings and default values...
Dear List,
This is a simple problem, but I can't really find a good
solution. and I have a general question also.
1) I have a webform that is save to a variable $html using
heredoc.
$html = WEBFORM
.
input name=company type=text value=$company
.
the problem is that when you enter an apostrophe, and then repost the
page with the stored values, the apostrophe appears escaped in the edit
form.
how can I solve this?
2) is it possible to put additional ('nested') php inside a
heredoc, or will that text simply print out?
Thank you,
Steven Kallstrom
Re: [PHP] Strings and default values...
1) You most likely have magic_quotes_gpc set to on. Either set it to
off or stripslashes() the input.
2) No, it won't print. Think of a heredoc as a quotes string without
the quotes. You can, however, do something like:
$variable = WHATEVER
whatever
text
goes
here
WHATEVER;
$variable.= executesomephp();
$variable = WHATEVER
whatever
other
text
goes
here
WHATEVER;

Re: [PHP] Problem with functions
Jon,
You may have answered my question, but I'm still confused. I see from your
example that the actual function comes before the function is called in the
script, and when I changed mine to that format it worked.
Now the confusion. I have another script which is the opposite of your
example, and works fine. So why would one work one way but not the other. I
have included the exact format I have for the one that doesn't work, and
below that the actual code of the one that does work. In most languages I
have used, this is the correct format - it makes for easier reading.
?PHP (this is the one that does not work)
include (errormessages.php);
$error = ;
if (!$name) {
errormessage();
}
elseif ($anothercondition) {
gotofunction();
}
elseif ($anothercondition2) {
gotofunction2();

IMHO it depends on the amount of operations you have to perform on your rows.

setcookie(aircharteruser,$cookievalue,time()+1800,/);
}
}
?
and then checking in my other pages to see if it is set here..
?
if (!isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['aircharteruser']))
{ header(location: login_clients.php);}
?
The only problem is once the cookie is set, it never seems to go away. This
one should have expired in 30 minutes right? I can still go in and get to
the other pages without it telling me to log in. What did I do wrong?
Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Resource limit/performance questions
I was wondering if this would grow linearly... as the data collects? So, if it takes 3 seconds to do 2600 rows, will it take 30 seconds to do 26000 rows? I am using a simple for statement to send the 26 records through the 10 querys. A typical select is: SELECT DISTINCT DATE_FORMAT(date, '%Y%m%d'), field2 FROM $table WHERE field2 NOT LIKE '$anoption' AND field3 LIKE '$field2[$i]' AND TO_DAYS(NOW()) - TO_DAYS(date) = 30; This select is run over with five different date = numbers... then done without the DISTINCT again over the same five time periods. The array of records being sent through the 10 querys should not grow too very large (26 in fact is a fairly high representation of what would be average), whereas the number of records will grow at a fairly predictable rate, with the same basic number of records added each day. I should have said records, instead of objects. (too many sessions with crAccess, too little time talking to real people about databases) Now... would you spell that querys or queries?

Re: [PHP] Resource limit/performance questions
Well, the execution time depends on a number of factors. If your tables are indexed properly and you take advantage of the indexes, then the growth in execution time is not linear (I'm guessing the indexes are maintained through balanced or semi-balanced trees or a similar method). However, in your case, it's not the execution time but the number of executions. Even under the best of circumstances, if the number of queries increases in relation to the number of records, then you will notice a proportional slowdown. If the queries do not use your indexes, then the slowdown will probably be geometric, since the SQL engine will have to spend more time sorting through the records for each query. I usually say queries... it's worked so far :-) Marco -- php|architect - The Magazine for PHP Professionals The monthly magazine dedicated to the world of PHP programming Check us out on the web at http://www.phparch.com! ---BeginMessage--- I was wondering if this would grow linearly... as the data collects?

Re: [PHP] libcrypt.a and solaris 8
I've recently compiled PHP (4.2.3) with openssl support on a Solaris 8 system. openssl does not have a libcrypt.a library - it does have libcrypto.a. How did you install openssl and what is your configuration line for PHP? I've found it to be best to configure openssl so that it installs somewhere like /usr/local/ssl and to configure php to look at that directory for the openssl linking. It might also help if you told us what error message you're getting. ..michael..

Re: [PHP] login
You really need to check out sessions. 1. user logs in by a form 2. php validates the login, checks for a valid uid/pwd 3. if valid, sets a session variable like $_SESSION['uid'] 4. you put session_start() at the top of each page, and php will know that they are logged in as justin or whatever. Rather than passing around thier userid in the URL, you pass around a session id (long unique number) in the URL, and associate MANY session variables to it via either the URL or cookies (userid, first name, fav colour, preference for font size, preference for date format, whatever) on the server-side. The guts of it is a lot more complex than that of course, with many different options, but you get the drift :) What you would actually be testing for on each page would be $_SESSION['uid'], not $clientid or $_GET['clientid'].

[PHP] running perl script via su
I am getting a lot of information about running the web server as root and the associated problems and so on as I've been looking for a quick solution. I have a perl script that is run by cron that executes sequence of events via sftp. The sftp client has no option that I know of to denote a different user than the one executing the command using rsa so I set up a user with the same name as the user needed to log into the remote server and run it under cron for that user. I want to place a simple button on my web site that executes that script but it has to be run by that user.

Huh? I can't really understand what you're saying.
If you're adding stuff to a database, and getting an error, use
addslashes(), then on the way out of the database, you need to
stripslashes(). Easy.
If you don't get any errors, then magic quotes is probably enabled in your
