I think you will find that the Visibility feature you are trying to use was
introduced with PHP 5

[PHP] private, public, protected in 4.3.11

[Peter Lauri]

Hi,

 

Example code that I try to run in version 4.3.11:

 

Class Page {

private $myID;

 

function Page() {

$this->myID=1;

}

 

function getID() {

return $this->myID;

}

 

}

 

But I get error message:

 

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or
`T_VAR' or `'}'' in C:\Documents and Settings\Peter Lauri\My Documents\DWS
Asia\webserver\ework\classes\page.class.php on line 8

 

If I change to

var $myID;

it works.

 

What is wrong?

[PHP] Apache2 PHP Downloadin Code

[Ray Hauge]

Hello everyone,

I'm having some problems with one of our servers.  Recently Plesk overwrote 
our configuration file, and I'm trying to get the thing back online.  To make 
a long story short, I've got PHP working with http, but now that I've got the 
https virtual host set up, php doesn't work with it.  Instead apache just 
sends a file download request to the client, so I can download the entire 
source code, instead of viewing the results from PHP.

Has anyone run into an issue like this?  It's just so odd that the HTTP 
virtual host works just fine, but the HTTPS virtual host does not.

I've got all the appropriate:

LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so
AddHandler php-script php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php4 .php3 .phtml .inc
DirectoryIndex index.php index.php3

in the php.conf file.  I don't think I have to specify to turn the PHP engine 
on in the HTTPS virtual host, do I?

Thanks for any help,

Ray Hauge

Seems like I recall solving this problem.  It's been a long time, so you'll 
need to try it.

For each checkbox set these two


You'll get $_POST[foo] as "no" or "yes"

[PHP] Re: problem with large arrays in php 4.3.2

[James Benson]

Their should be no problem with what your trying to do, try the 
following function, should act pretty much like array_diff();





if(!function_exists('array_diff')) {
function array_diff($array1, $array2)
{
$difference = array();
foreach($array1 as $key => $value)
{
if(is_numeric($key)) {
if(!in_array($value, $array2)) {
$difference[] = $value;
}
} else {
if(!array_key_exists($key, $array2)) {
$difference[] = $key;
}
}
}
return $difference;
}
}




// small test
$array1 = array_fill(0, 2, 'banana');
$array2 = array();
print_r(array_diff($array1, $array2));




It also depends how much data the arrays contain

Hello,

I have an old version of php (4.3.2) that is acting rather strangely. I'm
searching two large arrays (approx 22,000 records in each) using
array_diff_key() from the PEAR PHP_Compat library:

$result = $args[0];
foreach ($args[0] as $key1 => $value1) {
for ($i = 1; $i !== $array_count; $i++) {
foreach ($args[$i] as $key2 => $value2) {
if ((string) $key1 === (string) $key2) {
unset($result[$key2]);
break 2;
}
}
}
}

And I'm getting aweful performance. I know it's a ton of records (22,000 *
22,000), but it shouldn't take 16 minutes on a P4 Xeon 2.4ghz!

Has anyone seen this before? Is this a bug? Or are my math skills lacking and
this is perfectly normal performance for the size of the data set?

Thanks!

alter the sendmail configuration file: /etc/mail/local-host-names

If that dont work you need to setup DNS for your machine.

Taken from  php.net:

The additional_parameters parameter can be used to pass an additional 
parameter to the program configured to use when sending mail using the 
sendmail_path  configuration setting. For example, this can be used to 
set the envelope sender address when using sendmail with the -f sendmail

The user that the webserver runs as should be added as a trusted

Do something like:

$checkboxes = array('food','drink','smoking');

// display the checkboxes
foreach($checkboxes as $checkbox) {
echo "$checkbox: ";
}



Then when processing the form input check if each of the $checkboxes 
array values are present, if not, you can set to something else such as 
N, like so.




$sent_data = array();
foreach($checkboxes as $checkbox) {
  if(isset($_REQUEST[$checkbox])) {
$sent_data[$checkbox] = 'Y';
  } else {
$sent_data[$checkbox] = 'N';

Would it be enough to set a key for each checkbox, for example explicitly
say:
checkbox[1]
checkbox[2]
checkbox[3]
then a non checked box will have an empty string as a value, whereas the
checked ones will have a value of 'Y'.


Nope.  That's the problem.  If a checkbox is unchecked the browser doesn't 
need to send it all when it submits the server...

That's how HTML forms work. The general solution is to set the value of
the
checkbox to describe what the checkbox is (for example, the row id of the
database record that the checkbox is associated with). Then you can loop
through and see which values were submitted.

Thanks. The parts refering to the sender I _do_ have. The messages are
(for those who signed up for html) part html and part text. Here are
my headers:

--snip--
$from = "Dotan Cohen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>";
$subject = "LyricsList Newsletter - January 2006";
--snip--
$headers  = "From: $from\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $from\n";
$headers .= "Date: ".date("r")."\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: Dotan Cohen's Homebrew PHP Mailer
(http://dotancohen.com)\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type:
multipart/mixed;\n\tboundary=\"=".rand(1000,)."\"\n";
--snip--
mail ($subscriber[0], $subject, $message, $headers);
--snip--

$subscriber[0] is the users email address (1 is text/html preferance,
2 is IP,...). When I send it to my Yahoo address for testing, it goes
through. Everywhere else (gmail.com, hotmail.com, dotancohen.com), it
fails with the error that I previously described. Relevant parts of
the headers that I take from mail.yahoo.com look like this:

192.117.111.61 is my home IP address (constant). Somewhere, the From
information is being written over by the default apache values. Where
can I change that? The email address in httpd.conf has already been
changed to my address.

That's how HTML forms work. The general solution is to set the value of the
checkbox to describe what the checkbox is (for example, the row id of the

RE: [PHP] Reading large files via PHP?

[Philip Hallstrom]

I'm reading in a 66MB file into php so I can parse it and load it into a
database.  However, it is taking a long time for php to read the file.
So long that the script times out.  I know about the
ini_set("max_execution_time", 120) or whatever length I want to set the
time out for the script, but my question is as follows.

Is it possible to read in a file and at the same time echo out a status
of how far along the file has been read?

The code I have right now is below.  Just wondering if what I'm trying
to do is possible and how to do it.

// set script timeout
ini_set("max_execution_time", 120);

// import file name
$log_file_name = "access_log.1";
echo "Reading access log!";
if (!$ac_arr = file("./$log_file_name")) {
echo "Couldn't load access log!";
die;
}

Thanks!


Even if you get around the execution time the above code is going to use
up 66megs of memory to store that file in $ac_arr.

You'd be much better off doing something like:

$fd = fopen("./$log_file_name", "r");

while ( !feof($fd) ) {
$buf = fread($fd, 32768);
// process buffer here
}
fclose($fd);

That will let you do your progress thing as well as not eat up so much
memory.  Play around with values of 32768 to see if smaller or larger
makes any different on your system.

Good luck!


Ahhh.. Okay that's very cool and I did not know that.  I knew that it 
was chewing up a lot of memory reading it all at once.


I guess the only thing I have to worry about now is if I do a read like 
that will it truncate a whole line instead of getting the whole line? 
The reason why I ask is that if possible I would rather have it read 
line by line for X lines and then process that buffer then go and grab 
more lines until end of file.  Is that possible?


Sure.  If it's a text file you could do something like this:

$i = 0;
$buf = "";
while ( !feof($fd) ) {
$buf .= fgets($fd);
if ( $i++ % 10 == 0 ) {
// process buf here
$buf = "";
}
}

Or you could turn buf into an array with $buf[] = fgets($fd) if that's 
easier...


All kinds of options :)

Excact same error. Actually, this was working fine until recently. I

You could pre-initialize the array with all 'N' values, then update the
array with the 'Y's from the checkboxes.

Ahhh.. Okay that's very cool and I did not know that.  I knew that it was 
chewing up a lot of memory reading it all at once.  

I guess the only thing I have to worry about now is if I do a read like that 
will it truncate a whole line instead of getting the whole line?  The reason 
why I ask is that if possible I would rather have it read line by line for X 
lines and then process that buffer then go and grab more lines until end of 
file.  Is that possible?

[PHP] array of checkbox values

[Sjef Janssen]

Hallo,
I have a form with a number of checkboxes grouped together. The value of
these boxes is stored in an array: $used[]. Now I found that the value of
checked boxes (value = 'Y') are stored in the array while non checked boxes
are not stored at all. This makes the array incomplete as I want to have all
checkbox values in the array.
For example: for 4 checkboxes the values are
checkbox 1: array index  = 0 value = "Y"
checkbox 2: array index = 1 value = "Y"
checkbox 3: value = "N" : it does not occur in the array
checkbox 4: array index = 2 value = "Y"

Is there a way to, as it were, complete the array and have all values
stored, even the "N" values? So that array index 2 has a value of "N", and
array index 3 is "Y".

Re: [PHP] Reading large files via PHP?

[Philip Hallstrom]

I'm reading in a 66MB file into php so I can parse it and load it into a 
database.  However, it is taking a long time for php to read the file. 
So long that the script times out.  I know about the 
ini_set("max_execution_time", 120) or whatever length I want to set the 
time out for the script, but my question is as follows.


Is it possible to read in a file and at the same time echo out a status 
of how far along the file has been read?


The code I have right now is below.  Just wondering if what I'm trying 
to do is possible and how to do it.


// set script timeout
ini_set("max_execution_time", 120);

// import file name
$log_file_name = "access_log.1";
echo "Reading access log!";
if (!$ac_arr = file("./$log_file_name")) {
echo "Couldn't load access log!";
die;
}

Thanks!


Even if you get around the execution time the above code is going to use 
up 66megs of memory to store that file in $ac_arr.


You'd be much better off doing something like:

$fd = fopen("./$log_file_name", "r");

while ( !feof($fd) ) {
$buf = fread($fd, 32768);
// process buffer here
}
fclose($fd);

That will let you do your progress thing as well as not eat up so much 
memory.  Play around with values of 32768 to see if smaller or larger 
makes any different on your system.


Good luck!

[PHP] Re: Sending mail with php-

[James Benson]

You need a domain name pointing to your IP address for a start, then you 
either need to configure php.ini to use the correct email or you should 
pass the additional param to sendmail, as shown below.



Taken from  php.net:

The additional_parameters parameter can be used to pass an additional 
parameter to the program configured to use when sending mail using the 
sendmail_path  configuration setting. For example, this can be used to 
set the envelope sender address when using sendmail with the -f sendmail 
option.


The user that the webserver runs as should be added as a trusted 
user to the sendmail configuration to prevent a 'X-Warning' header from 
being added to the message when the envelope sender (-f) is set using 
this method. For sendmail users, this file is /etc/mail/trusted-users.




 The additional_parameters parameter can be used to pass an additional 
parameter to the program configured to use when sending mail using the 
sendmail_path.

Try using  in a page with a re-written URL and see
if it outputs the re-written URL.

If that fails, odds are looking pretty bad...

Personally, I have found that not messing with mod_rewrite and using
$_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] with .htaccess instead is far more flexible and
maintainable.

Not to mention portable to servers where you don't (won't) have access
to httpd.conf to enable mod_rewrite.

There is a performance penalty for .htaccess being on, and if you need
to wring out every last microwatt of power from your box, and know for
sure you'll never have to port to a shared environment, then
mod_rewrite is probably the way to go.  But for MOST users, it's not.

Back on-topic:  If the data you want isn't available, it seems to me
like the kind of thing Apache really ought to be providing for PHP to
give you...  Maybe it would be fun for you to dive into Apache source
and submit a patch. :-)

actually I don't mind it - especially as I'm not on the apache or

and with regard to sending out emails I find using a connection with

necessarily because an smtp service is better but because it means that usually
someone has already done the nitty-gritty mail server config stuff that sees to

Yes, I know that cross-posting is unencouraged behaviour. However, I
really thought that apache-users was the place to ask. When I received
no reply from the apache mailing list, I did not know whether to ask
here or at my distro's (Fedora) list. As the problem is in a php
script, however, it involves php AND apache AND sendmail, all of which
were installed by default on my distro- and are expected to work. I
was not sure if the fault is with me (my misconfiguration) or with the
distro (distros default configuration).

So I appologize, and here I learned yet another lesson- when I _do_
cheat- I get caught!

Re: [PHP] Speed

[Rodolfo Andrade]

I think calculating directly in MySQL will be faster, since less data will
be "travelling" from MySQL to PHP.

Just my 2¢.

Why not check it?

Try to query for the AVG() and get the result or query for the data
and do a loop in PHP to calculate the AVG. Check the time each
Takes.

My Money is that getting the value from SQL will be faster.

Best group member,



Assume that I save data about an object and it has 10.000 observations of
the object stored in a MySQL database. I want calculate the average value of
a column, is it faster done by using PHP on the result array or using the
MySQL function to do that?

Depends what you mean by no value. I suggest you read 
http://php.net/is_null, http://php.net/empty and http://php.net/isset.

[PHP] Re: Check how much/which variables there are in an class

[Stefan Reimers]

Try

array get_class_vars ( string class_name)

This will return an array with at least the public variables.

If you are know that all your file and directory names are lower case, but
users may input mixed case responses that will be used to determine the
include, you can set the case of the user input to lower case with
strtolower(). Or strtoupper() - the choice is yours.

If you have been a bit careless in naming your directories or filenames,
then I'd do some site maintenance and get that sorted first.

Owkay, its clear :).
I just wondered if it was possible, would save some other trouble :).

Thx for the help.

MySQL.

You don't have to transfer all 10,000 records to PHP for one thing.

Re: [PHP] Case-Insensitive include on linux.

[Marco Kaiser]

Hi,

this is very stupid because you can have files in a directory named:

PleaSeINCLUDeMe.php
pleaseincludeme.php

and if you do a case insensitive include which one should be included?
The include stuff works insensitive under windows great because the
filesystem does not permit 2 file with the same name in a directory.
The example above is not possible.
