Re: [PHP] Parse Error on SQL Insert [Solved]
Sorry guys - knew it would be obvious!
I was using $_FILE['image']['name'][0], instead of
$_FILES['image']['name'][0]
However, thanks for all your help.

Of course if the field in the DB isn't numeric this would be

Not sure if this is your problem, but those look like backticks around
year
instead of single quotes. Should there even be quotes there?

Re: [PHP] PHP Book Recommendation
it depends on your programming level and taste of reading I really like Advanced PHP programming but some people he's a lousy teacher, SitePoint books are the most reader friendly books but maybe they aren't the most valuable books in the market. In the last two months the market got load of new PHP books but this time it wasn't General-PHP books but php-specific-topic books, namely design patterns, security, php5 objects etc.. so the best now is to look for php book talking about specific php related topic for me the best are Topic book General Advanced PHP Programming Security: Ilia's security book Guide to php security OOP patterns: PHP design patterns PHP5/general php:php5 power programming Tools/extensions/internals: essential php tools Finally the best is to read some chapters of the book to see if you like how it's written and to check reviewers comments on Amazon.

Typo in the above. $_GET['loc'] should be $_POST['loc']. I switched
from GET to POST and missed this one. The next version of the Yahoo

touch ahead of the released version.

Re: [PHP] Re: Parsing variables within string variables
Dear Paul, this is exactly the solution I needed, and works as described! Many thanks for thinking through this with me. Yours, David. On 8 Apr 2006, at 00:05, Paul Novitski wrote: At 02:41 PM 4/7/2006, David Clough wrote: I have to parse the string 'Hello $foo' as it comes from the database: I don't get to construct it. I did hold out more hope for the eval function, but it seems to me that this is for PHP code in a database, not to evaluate variables. David, please try the eval() route: it will do what you want. You say, this is for PHP code in a database, not to evaluate variables, but evaluating variables is absolutely part of PHP code processing! Eval() will operate on $x = 4; just as easily as on Hello $foo. You should not use eval() frivolously because it presents a potential vulnerability in your code. You may wish to ensure that the database text it operates on is first cleansed of any other PHP syntax -- similarly to the way we should all ensure that any incoming data is clean before we process it and incorporate it into our scripts. Here's an example of variaible evaluation: ___ $bar = cat; $foo = Hello \$bar.; echo $foo; RESULT: Hello $bar. By escaping the $, I have made it a literal character in the text, the same as if I'd read Hello $bar from a database. ___ eval(echo \$foo\;); RESULT: Hello cat. This is equivalent to scripting: echo $foo; I'm using eval() to execute the echo command and interpret the PHP variable $foo. ___ eval(\$dog = \$bar;); echo dog = . $dog; RESULT: dog = cat Here I'm using eval() to set one PHP variable equal to another. ___ You can't simply write: eval(\$bar;); or $x = eval($foo); because everything inside the eval() parentheses needs to be a complete PHP statement. The eval() function itself doesn't return the value of an evaluated expression. To capture the value of an expression, you must evaluate a complete statement that sets a variable equal to the expression as above. ___ Clear as mud?

Re: [PHP] Is it a bug of CakePHP?
Pham Huu Le Quoc Phuc a écrit : I catch an error, could you tell me if you have some ideas? Error message: Undefined index: start_date in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Cake\app\controllers\dsptrainings_controller.php on line 33 PHP is telling you that what you are trying to access doesn't exist. This is is a matter of you trying to access something that doesn't exist. So the question is, what does $data look like? My suggestion is to print_r($data) to see. Perhaps findBySql() doesn't return the results as an associative array? Or since you're sending a query for only one record, it doesn't send a 2-dimensional array back? Maybe your start date can be accessed simply by $data['start_date']? I don't know, I don't use CakePHP. Again, print your $data variable to the screen to find out what it contains. Consider this to be a powerful tool in your bag of debugging tricks. I print variables to the screen all the time to find out what's wrong. In fact, I'll do it in a two step process: print_r($my_variable); die(hrfilename.php:line_num); The first line prints the variable I'm after to the screen. The second line kills the script, but outputs the text I send it first. So it draws a horizontal rule across the page, and then prints out the file name and line number that the script was killed at. So if I'm tracing a particularly elusive bug, I can place these two lines in various places across my app, and walk through it step by step. The important part is knowing the filename and location of your debugging marks, so that you can clean them up easily.

Re: [PHP] Re: make global variables accessible to functions?
I have to agree with passing them as opposed to accessing them from inside
the function
Clean
$a = whatever;
function foo($a){
echo $a;
}
Ugly
$a = whatever;
function foo(){
global $a;
echo $a;
}
Unless the variables in question are for all intents and purposes constant (
real constants can't be arrays ), ie for example configuration vars, I would
avoid making them global.
Having that said, it's your code..

Re: [PHP] Handling Large Select Boxes
Thanks for the responses to this... The AJAX thing would probably not work as this is a critical piece to the UI, so even though the form would load faster, the users would still really need to wait for the select options to come through before they could actually do any *work* on the page. The problems are horrific data, in that it has not been cleaned and validated, and there are not linkages, or layers to the data either, so there is literally no way to sub-select, which of course is poor planning by people before me. So, before I can fix the real problem, my stop gap solution was to load the list exactly once, as well as loading the contents into JS, therefore the users can search through to narrow down the list, and then using JS they can select an option and place in the the form element they are dealing with. Load time are much better, but still not great. I guess this is what happens when people get a ton of data before they properly planned to get that much data -Brad Brad Ciszewski wrote: Perhaps try implementing some AJAX on the page. Therefore, once the page has loaded, the select tag is populated with different options, without actually lagging the page. Jay Blanchard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [snip] I have a form for user interaction and part of it is a select box with a large number of options from a database ~12K options.

'local' variable echos what I expect, but the 'class' variable does not.
function init($id)
{
$this-ID[0] = ERROR;
$this-name[0] = ;
Hope this answers your question.
And yes, I am not happy the the 'Array[X]' output, I am expecting the
value, not what it is.
I have already tried establishing an array type early in the function...
var $name = array(); (or '' or ) ?

This give the same output as:

Looks like I may need to use the '.' constructor more often

Re: [PHP] Ajax please....
Hey all, first of all; a big thank you to all of you for replying, rather than mix up my replies to all of you I will write my response to you under your name as I have gotten so many different leads/opinions/views. One last requirment I forgot to mention before was that I wanted to work with PHP 4 only, I have not totally upgraded my knowledge to PHP5...I did find a few classes on the php classes site for PHP5 that looked promising but didnt work too well with what I had in mind. Eric Wood: Thanks for the link, will look into it, from your reply it sounds really simple, at worst will learn something new :-) Manuel Lemos: Thanks for the links and the info, quite a bit that I didnt know about, esp the IE6 part and activeX Rasmus Lerdorf: - That was a real long explanation; the least I can do is give the Yahoo package another go since you took so much time to write that explanation with the example. :-) Problem is; its been ages since I fooled around with the JS DOM and to say I am rusty would be an understatement. I had already downloaded the YUI.zip file. Thanks again. Carlin Bingham / Tedd: --- Yes, but then I would have to reload the whole page just to tell the person that the account username was already taken...thats how its traditionally done...but I want to try doing it without reloading the whole page...hence Asynchronous JavaScript And XML (AJAX) although the XML part at the end is not really too accurate because from what I see you can (and i have) use AJAX without any XML...in my case it would be AJAH or AJAT (H=HTML, T=TEXT) :-p The other thing is, I thought I would start with something simple but still real world and then work myself up to more complex stuff thats how I learnt PHP; even though I didnt start with the Hello world in PHP I started with basic strings and with the help of a book (PHP Blackbook) and this list (better than any book) I rarely program in anything other than PHP now. AJAX is one of the new hot words over here and I see quite a few job openings with this word used even though going the the employers site I see very basic or non existant use of it (or even unnecessary use of it), it does not seem very distant from normal programming (and i used to fool around with JS a while back) so might as well learn a bit about it and add a little more to the old CV ;-) In closingall of you. get your butts off the chair and off the computerand have a nice weekend!

use curly brackets to help PHP understand what you're after:
echo {$this-name[5]}\n;
When you're in a string like this, PHP has a hard time knowing when
you're wanting to access a variable, and when you're simply trying to
output text. Using curly brackets clears it up.

[PHP] Timestamp needed in error log
I would like to configure my PHP 4.3 to include a timestamp in its error messages. It appears that PHP defaults to no timestamp. I can't a find a directive that allows me to configure this. Do I have to recompile? I've never looked at the source before. Any pointers on where I should look for the error message generation? I posted a similar query a week ago and got no response. Any response would be appreciated: --Does anyone have a PHP that is configured with a timestamped error log? --Is there a reason not to have a timestamp? --Would you, like me, like to have the date and time in the error messages?

But a quick glance at your SQL shows that your second query returns all writings by all authors because you don't include anything to narrow it down to one author: WHERE Writings.ID = Writings.ID AND Author.Autholr_Name = Writings.Writings_Author AND Author.ID = Author.ID First of all: Writings.ID = Writings.ID and Author.ID = Author.ID are nonsense. Every query will match those crieria. In other words, you'd probably best take an hour or so to RTF 'Intro to SQL M.' Here's another hint: You have no PHP variable in your SQL query. That means you execute the same exact query every time you run it. So you will get the same exact results every time. So your solution is this: Include a PHP variable in your SQL query to specify which author you want to select. You probably want something like this: WHERE Author.Author_Name = Writings.Author_Name AND Author.ID = '$MySelectedAuthorID' (but remember to define $MySelectedAuthorId before running it :) Good luck and post again with your progress.

(You might patch them from 'require_once' to 'require' to see if that makes a difference, although of course it may break something else.) You may need to do some basic trace debugging: i.e. inserting displays (echos to the output or error_log() entries) to trace exactly what is happening. Good luck!

Patience and perserverence and calm rational thought will get you there. the problem is when i want to expand a site with a new application, usually that comes in its own directory. but, to include the new application i have to wrap it inside the main directory -- in this case /a/b/current which requires of course that i call first /a/b/current/common.php which starts the sessions, sends the cookies, checks post variables. but that doesn't work, really, because then all of the includes for the application says include(main.php) ... but php thinks it's in /a/b/current not in /a/b/current/d/ . so it says cannot find include file main.php in path: path:::;; .. my wish list: 1) applications came with a configurable directory to preced every include or require. like, change include(main.php) -- include( $config[dir] . main.php ) alternatively, 2) all applications come with a unique prefix affixed to the files so they can simply be laid out in the document root and be visually and mentally and upgradably separate from the files of the other applications existing in the same $_SERVER[document_root] i honestly don't understand the include mechanism. i have encountered many cases ( sorry, can't be explicit) where a file which was 2 includes away wouldn't have any variables in the main script, unless i added a line to include that file in that file directly. as an example: /a/b/current/index.php include(common.php); include(lib/functions2.php); /a/b/current/lib/functions2.php you would think would be able to simply run with what was included above it but you can't. you have to redeclare include_once($g4[bbs]. /dbconfig.php); include_once($g4[bbs]. /common.php); the include of the common.php file. i am looking for the rule for that they say it's global, but it's not. However, i found that if you include common.php again then it finds the functions it misses, because it itself was included by common.php. as if the direction of the includes matters . explicitly: if common.php includes lib/functions.php common.php can access lib/functions.php but if lib/functions.php needs common.php then lib/functions.php needs to include common.php is that correct? because of these problems, when i have to wrap another application inside an existing SKIN and common.php, i end up changing the file names, running a SED script to replace all occurrences of filenames with their newly-uniquely-prefixed-names . -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Ajax please....
May I supply this very little example to show how easy it can be to use
iFrame?
This is the first document:
iframe id=myFrame/iframe
input type=button value=go
onclick=document.getElementById('myFrame').src='second.htm' /
div id=myDiv/div
It just has an iframe, an action button, which sets the src property of the
iframe and a div to store the response.
The document second.htm contains:
body onLoad=parent.document.getElementById('myDiv').innerHTML = 'hello!';
/
That's it.
I placed this in the onLoad event, to make sure nothing gets executed before
everything is loaded, but I might as well do this:
scriptparent.document.getElementById('myDiv').innerHTML =
'Hello!';/script
And it also works, though should it invoke a function not yet loaded, it
would fail.
Instructions set as this last one might move a progress bar while the
scripts are being loaded.
For example, if the information sent comes from database records, a row
count can be queried first and insterspersed with the actual data of the
rows, a progress bar might be moved a fraction of that row count. (this
would count for communication from the server to the browser since that bar
wouldn't move until the first instruction of the response is received)
This, of course, are very minimal documents just containing what's essential
to prove the point, not working documents and, of course, both might be PHP
scripts.

[PHP] Binary Data / Strings
Background:
I'm using cURL to snarf down a web page and examine an image in that
page -- where I would like to be able to use
http://php.net/imagecolorat on the image.
There are some wrinkles, however, best explained by a slimmed-down
sample program:
?php
function foo(){
global $curl;
if (!isset($curl)) $curl = curl_init();
//Fetch HTML
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookies');
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'cookies');
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://example.com');
$html = curl_exec($curl);
//Fetch image:
preg_match('/img src=([^]*/', $html, $image_url);
$image_url = $image_url[1];
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, 1); //Getting binary data
curl_setopt($curl, $image_url);
$image_string = curl_exec($curl);
curl_setopt9$curl, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, 0); //Set it BACK to text!
//SOMETIMES that URL sends me this for an image:
$bad_data = 'META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh URL=0;http://example.com;';
if (stristr($image_string, $bad_data)){
//start all over again:
return foo();
}
//Use GD to get image:
$image = imagecreatefromstring($image_string);
//Begin analysis
//irrelevant to the problem, deleted.
$result = 'foo';
return $result;
}
//Assume the image changes on every page hit, and we call foo() a LOT
for ($i = 0; $i 10; $i++){
echo foo();
sleep(mt_rand(1, 5); //Don't kill their server
}
?
NOW, for the problem[s].
#1.
If I don't use BINARYTRANSFER, then imagecreatefromstring segfaults,
pretty much every time. Well usually, anyway.
Presumably, that's because cURL/PHP are pretending the string is
null-terminated when it's not, and then handing a corrupted image
string to GD, and that's bad. Or, perhaps, without BINARYTRANSFER,
some sort of CRLF correction is corrupting the binary data. I dunno,
really. I just figured I got binary data coming in, and I must want
BINARYTRANSFER, based on what I can find documented.
So, assuming BINARYTRANSFER means what I think it means, I need that.
I've put in a bug report here, and pajoye is being VERY helpful, in
hopefully getting segfault to be an E_ERROR instead of segfault:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=37005
So this one will probably get resolved, eventually.
But I'm hoping for a pointer to a longer explanation of what
BINARYTRANSFER actually does, as I've only found rather circular/brief
definitions so far on php.net and I'm not finding anything on the
libcurl page here:
http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html
A quick Google also yielded only the barest circular definition:
CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER
TRUE to return the raw output when CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER is used.
I mean, yeah, guys, I know what the words BINARY and raw output
mean, and the docs pretty much tell me they are synonyms... That's
not real useful, eh? :-) :-) :-)
#2.
Once I start using BINARYTRANSFER, however...
I *still* get segfaults sometimes, even when everything else seems to
be okay.
This is happening in *all* of these versions from CGI compile on
command-line usage:
PHP 5.0.4
PHP 5.1.2
PHP 5.1.2RC3
So, perhaps my use of BINARYTRANSFER is completely wrong, and merely
masks the real problem a little bit?
The segfault DOES happen at different points in the different versions
of PHP. 5.0.4 segfaults within call to imagecreatefromstring()
5.1.2RC3 segfaults at some later point.
#3.
It seems like once is set BINARYTRANSFER to 1, setting it back to 0 is
not taking effect...
I say this because after a recursive call to foo() to start over, I
get $html filled with data such as:
htmlhead.../headbody.../body/htmlZZZ...?more
garbage data
I.E., it seems like curl and/or PHP are ignoring null-terminated data,
and using some other indicator to define the end of a string.
As additional evidence, I get messages such as:
Run-time warning. String is not zero-terminated ( ) (source:
/php-5.1.2/Zend/zend_variables.h:45) in /script.php:128
/php-5.1.2/Zend/zend-hash.c(754) : ht=0x8381124 is being cleaned
Now, I dunno what all that is supposed to mean, but I'm pretty sure
it's a sign of things going drastically wrong with a string being
treated as binary data when it's not or vice versa...
Is it not possible to switch CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER back to 0 ?
Or is 0 treated as TRUE in cURL and I need FALSE? Surely not, right,
since PHP handles that internally...
#4
The complaint about a string not being zero-terminated is happening on
the line such as:
if (stristr($image_string, $bad_data)){
stristr is supposed to be binary-safe
My assumption, then, was that I could search inside of a binary data
string (a valid image) for a particular pattern (the HTML they send
out instead of a JPEG sometimes) to detect when they've done that...
So, apparently, binary-safe doesn't mean what I think it means...
Or I've found another bug in PHP? Unlikely.
What does binary-safe actually MEAN anyway?
#5
Is there some way to distinguish between a
Re: [PHP] Timestamp needed in error log
quoth the John Hicks: You don't explain much about your setup here, but on mine, I just write my errors to the apache error log, which provides its own timestamp. Another option is to log to the system logs: error_log = syslog # in php.ini and use your loggers filter facilities to keep the php messages in a separate file. Again, here syslog will provide its own timestamp. -d Thanks for the feedback, Darren! So at least one person in the world does get a filestamp in his error messages. That's useful information. From my googling I see number of references to the absence of timestamps so I was beginning to think that was the norm. Mine is a RHES4 box running the RH default configuration of PHP 4.3.9 (RedHat's latest). Please let me know your distribution and PHP version so I can start to narrow this down. Thanks! John Hey, I am using Gentoo and PHP 5.1.2 with the hardened patch, but I am pretty sure the logging is identical to php4, as I only upgraded to 5 a few months ago, In any event, how is your logging set up in php.ini? In mine I have: display_errors = Off log_errors = On error_log is commented out, and this causes php to write directly to my Apache error_log, which as I mentioned, provides the timestamp itself. I am not sure on this point, but if you have your error_log set to /some/random/file and you do not see a timestamp then I think it is safe to conclude that PHP does not provide this facility itself. So, if you need the timestamp you might need to use Apache's or syslog's logging facilities instead.

By the way, the reason your way isn't working is because you have your

second, and since you are only printing the date you lose the fact that
you added 7 minutes. If you try your script just before midnight you

Sorry for so basic a question. - author page query = $query_GetAuthors = SELECT Distinct Author.Autholr_Name, Author.ID, Writings.Writings_Author FROM Author, Writings WHERE Author.Autholr_Name = Writings.Writings_Author and Author.ID = Author.ID; This gets every author several times over, then throws away the duplicates. Not what you want. First thing: WHERE Author.ID = Author.ID This is just silly -- Author.ID will ALWAYS equal Author.ID It's a tautology, like, WHERE 1 = 1 Get rid of it. Next, you really should NOT be storing the Author Name in both tables. Suppose somebody gets married? Suppose Cassius Clay changes his name to Mohammed Ali. Suppose Madonna writes for you. You should store an Author_ID field ni Writings so that you are comparing the ID Numbers, not names that might change tomorrow. Finally, you are JOINing the Author table and Writings table here, and then throwing away all the info from the Writings table, just to get the Names. Either use JUST the author table to get JUST the names, or get BOTH their Writings *AND* their names. $GetAuthors = mysql_query($query_GetAuthors, $connDerbyTrail) or die (mysql_error()); $row_GetAuthors = mysql_fetch_assoc($GetAuthors); $totalRows_GetAuthors = mysql_num_rows($GetAuthors); author page link = a href=author.php?ID=?php echo $row_GetAuthors['ID']; ??php echo $row_GetAuthors['Autholr_Name']; ?/a - List page query = $query_GetAuthorList = SELECT Writings.Writings_Author, Writings.Writings_Title, DATE_FORMAT(Writings_Date, '%M %D, %Y') as Writings_Date, Writings.Writings_Text, Writings.ID, Author.Autholr_Name, Author.ID FROM Writings, Author WHERE Writings.ID = Writings.ID AND Author.Autholr_Name = Writings.Writings_Author AND Author.ID = Author.ID ORDER BY Writings.Writings_Date desc; Again, Writings.ID will ALWAYS equal Writings.ID Author.ID will ALWAYS equal Author.ID Matching up the names SHOULD get you just one of each, if your data is not messed up... $GetAuthorList = mysql_query($query_GetAuthorList, $connDerbyTrail) or die(mysql_error()); $row_GetAuthorList = mysql_fetch_assoc($GetAuthorList); $totalRows_GetAuthorList = mysql_num_rows($GetAuthorList); -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Timestamp needed in error log

It appears that PHP defaults to no timestamp. I can't a find a directive that allows me to configure this. Do I have to recompile? I've never looked at the source before. Any pointers on where I should look for the error message generation? I posted a similar query a week ago and got no response. Any response would be appreciated: --Does anyone have a PHP that is configured with a timestamped error log? --Is there a reason not to have a timestamp? --Would you, like me, like to have the date and time in the error messages?

[PHP] Re: looking for shopping cart
I actually just installed OS commerce on my site, but I think it might be hard for my clients to upload their contents. They need it to be real easy. Almost like fill in the blanks. What do you think?

They use Paypal. It has to be very easy for them to upload images and products, prices, etc. If anyone knows of something, please let me know.
