Somehow process it with php before, put inside of some kind of xml structure? Just dont want to do Mysql table with 70 fields One of the advantages of relational databases is that you do not have to know the structure of the data. Why break that? Why subject yourself, and the developer who follows you and has to maintain your code, to parsing hell? Why do you not want to do a MySQL table with 70 fields? MySQL is designed for this sort of thing. Given the tone of these comments, your database design may be questionable. Is a lot of data in a given table redundant; and if so the design likely needs work.

The easiest way to do this in Flash is to call a PHP script instead of an XML file in Flash, that way you can render the XML document however you want with PHP and load data directly from the database into XML or whatever you wish.

We've been running it for some time now on several of our hosting machines with Plesk setups. But, as far as that goes, it doesn't make a lick of difference if you're running Debian, CentOS, or another flavor, as long as you've got a 2.6 kernel and a decently optimized setup for your PHP sites. The 2.6 kernel makes a lot of difference when it comes to scaling Apache. With the 2.4 kernel our Apache 2.0 was somewhat sensitive to DOS attacks, mostly on the memory side, but with 2.6 and grsec it runs like a dream.

[PHP] wsdl cache?
Hello, I am experiencing a lot of difficulties working with Apache 5.0.4 and wsdl. I can publish a wsdl and work with it, but as soon as I want to add a new method to the wsdl, I have to change the directory to be able to use it. In some way, Apache kept the information for the wsdl and I am not able to update it! Could anybody explain me why and how could I avoid this problem? Thanks. Kind Regards, Victor.
Re: [PHP] Re: ? PHP in XML document
I went googling for XML validators and tried your sample in both forms, as you sugest with CDATA and my way: root data?php require_once(read_database.php); ?/data /root Both are valid. The relevant paragraph can be found in: http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#sec-pi Notice that while ?php is a valid start tag the shorthand ? is not since it is missing what the standard calls the Processing Instruction Target, or PITarget, for short.

One of our moves in the next year or so will be moving from MySQL 4.0 to 4.1 or greater. snip the biggest gain in php6 will be transparent unicode support - that is awesome, a really big plus - I'm crap at encoding et al and would really love it if php could handle all those funny characters without me having to think about it too much (and without having to using mb_string or iconv) - I run a couple of multi-lingual sites - right now I just pray every night that nobody asks me to implement japanese, or something, there ;-) /snip Yeah, that will probably be a big gain for us in the future too. The tiny bit of encoding we do is just merely a pain right now, but when we branch out to selling to the rest of Europe (we just sell to the UK and Canada outside of the US right now), the unicode support will come in real handy. -- John C.

[PHP] Problem using Metabase
Hi, folks. I've recently decided to use Manuel's Metabase instead of ADOdb as ADOdb doesn't support transactions for MS Access, however I'm getting the following error when running the sample code: Fatal error: Class metabase_manager_odbc_class: Cannot inherit from undefined class metabase_manager_database_class in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\etrakFE\classes\metabase\metabase_odbc.php on line 13 Obviously this means that the metabase_manager_odbc_class is being defined before metabase_manager_database_class, thus throwing an error, but the problem is I'm not calling this manually, and have used the sample code exactly as it is in the manual. Here's my code: require(classes/metabase/metabase_database.php); require(classes/metabase/metabase_interface.php); $error=MetabaseSetupDatabaseObject(array(Type=odbc-msaccess, IncludePath=classes/metabase), $db); if($error!=) { echo Database setup error: $error\n; exit; } $db-SetDatabase(etrakADB); Does anyone have any idea why I might be getting this error? As I said I'm using the sample code exactly as it is in the tutorial, and am not calling the metabase_manager_odbc_class myself.

RE: [PHP] 'God' has spoken... :-)
I'm (we're) still using PHP4. Mainly because there's been no reason for us to upgrade. ie, we're not doing anything that requires PHP5 (and if there is no feature in PHP6 that we have to have, we won't be upgrading to that either). I don't see the problem with this, unless it will be more difficult to upgrade from PHP4 to PHP6, than from PHP5 to PHP6. What I mean is, will upgrading to 5 now make the upgrade to 6 (or 7, or 9, or 11) easier in the future. So 5 has no features that I need right now. 6 probably doesn't either. But when PHP11 comes out and I must have it, will I be able to easily upgrade from 4? Will I expend less time/effort/risk making each upgrade as it is released that I would making a 5 version jump? Maybe its worth the time and effort to upgrade even if I don't need the features in the new release, just to make it easier to upgrade to the next one(s) down the line. Not only that, but as time goes by, community support (this list for instance) for 4 will likely diminish as others move on to later releases. Not only will the die-hard PHP4 users find it harder to get answers to their questions, but their answers to others will become less relevant to newer-version users.

[PHP] Re: which operating system?
* Sebastian [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I will be building a new server and wondering what would be a good choice for php/mysql/apache other than redhat. I was thinking either Debian or CentOS. can anyone share their thoughts on them for php environment? does anyone use them on high traffic php sites? or is there not a difference in what distro you run php on? sorry these may sound like stupid questions but i mostly used redhat since i started using php and thought i'd try something different. Use an OS that either doesn't have an end-of-life for support, or which can be upgraded to a new version without breaking everything. I've used Redhat and Fedora, but will never use them for production servers again -- after a couple years getting out-of-date, it becomes next to impossible to find packages for them, and upgrading to a new version almost always requires an attended install, and usually down time. Debian and Gentoo are very nice in that you can upgrade packages as they become available, usually with no issues. You might also want to look into one of the BSDs, as the ports system many of them employ also allows seamless upgrades in most situations. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney Zend Certified Engineer http://weierophinney.net/matthew/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Just my .02 JM A good parallel is what happened with Visual FoxPro and with PageMaker. When VFP 3 came out it broke the mould of FoxPro development, and it was a huge leap to adjust; product was not really mature and VFP 5 was great. VFP6 was even better - but a leap from 3 to 6 was almost impossible because so much had been changed in the interface and feature set. At least MSFT is doing it properly now, and announcing that VFP10 will be it, then no more. PageMaker was worse, but it's so long ago now that my memory's faulty. I think it was around PM3 or PM4 that the file format changed; if you had the earlier version, PM4 and later could not read the older files, you had to obtain a crippled version of PM3, which could only open the old version and save in the new, and then work on those files in the newer version. Of course a lot of stuff got busted. And of course, there is Visual Basic - where development stopped at version 6 and a new .NET language, labelled Visual Basic was introduced. So much stuff in VB 6 was broken that moving the code to the .NET language named Visual Basic is well nigh impossible. The problem with PHP 5 is that the ISP's have to be so conservative. There's no tagging mechanism which says process these files with PHP5, use PHP 4 for everything else. So, based on experience, better to move early than later. I suspect a jump from PHP4 to PHP6 will be huge -- the problem is to move the ISPs.

Miles Thompson wrote: The problem with PHP 5 is that the ISP's have to be so conservative. There's no tagging mechanism which says process these files with PHP5, use PHP 4 for everything else. That would be so wonderful. Just to be able to set what PHP .so to use based on VirtualHost/ or Directory/ in Apache would be bliss. Under Windows it's easier, of course, since you have specific configurations for each virtual host in IIS. I've tried running the CGI version of PHP5 on a PHP4 system, and of course it works, but it's slower than molasses in January. So, based on experience, better to move early than later. I suspect a jump from PHP4 to PHP6 will be huge -- the problem is to move the ISPs. A lot of ISPs run some form of enterprise Linux, or it could be just a control panel, that is dependent on the RPM version of PHP, which in most cases is still stuck arond 4.3.x somewhere, except in those cases where the ISP has taken the law in their own hands and compiled PHP from scratch, overwriting the RPM version, and hoping that this will not break anything too seriously when the control panel tries to upgrade itself the next time. ;) Others use scripts that are encoded with either IonCube or Zend, and are thus forced to stay with PHP4 since their software vendor hasn't made the leap yet. For instance, when encoding with Zend Encoder for PHP4, you can get some pretty nasty errors when running under PHP5. If the software vendors could make the leap RIGHT NOW and convert their godforsaken software to PHP5 and release two versions since there'll hardly be any difference in the code, we'd be a long way already. It's all mostly related to the encoder in these cases, for instance Zend. That's the way we do it with one of the applications I've written, it's shipped both as PHP4 and PHP5 Zend encoded, as well as IonCube encoded.

Some jerk is trying to fool the mail() function into sending his spam, and I got this today: start asshole code [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\===0110030565==\ MIME-Version: 1.0 Subject: 7510b460 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --===0110030565== Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\us-ascii\ MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit blrt --===0110030565==-- /start asshole code I just updated the code to stop this. I think that if anybody else has a form that goes to the mail() function, they should learn from this email and put up some code to block it.

[PHP] Problem when encoding non-english into UTF-8
Dear all, When I try to encode non-english char. such as big5 to UTF-8 with utf8_encode(), it always generate a wrong result, which is not readable. What can I do? Please help! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] RE: Problem using Metabase
[snip] Here's my code: require(classes/metabase/metabase_database.php); require(classes/metabase/metabase_interface.php); $error=MetabaseSetupDatabaseObject(array(Type=odbc-msaccess, IncludePath=classes/metabase), $db); if($error!=) { echo Database setup error: $error\n; exit; } $db-SetDatabase(etrakADB); I tried that code here with PHP 4.3.11 and it works perfectly. Which version of PHP are you using? Are you using any PHP cache extension like APC or another? Metabase loads the class files by the right order but it is possible that a buggy caching extension may be causing that problem. You may also try loading the classes as workaround right after the includes you make in your script: require('classes/metabase/metabase_odbc.php'); require('classes/metabase/metabase_odbc_msaccess.php'); require('classes/metabase/manager_odbc.php'); require('classes/metabase/manager_odbc_msaccess.php'); [/snip] Thanks, Manuel. I tried what you suggested but it didn't work. The server this project is housed on is an IIS server running PHP 4.4.0. I installed the metabase package on a linux server, and was able to connect to a postgres database with no troubles at all. It must be something in our PHP configuration that's causing the problem, but I'm pretty sure we have a cache extension installed. This PHP install was done rather quickly, unless there's a cache extension installed by default (which there is not as far as I understand, but I could be wrong ...) we likely didn't install one.

From the manual [1]: utf8_encode -- Encodes an ISO-8859-1 string to UTF-8 You're using the wrong tool for the job. Take a look at the iconv extension[2].

Can anyone think of any other reason why the order in which the class files are loaded would be changed on one server to the next?
