The examples should be sufficient for that, but you don't really care,
as it's not useful for what you want.
Here is what *I* would recommend:
Create a new table of searches:
create table search(
search_id int(11) auto_increment unique not null primary key,
status enum{0, 1, 2} default 0,
search_pid int(11) default null,
inputs text,
results text
);
0 = new search
1 = in progress
2 = complete
Now, when somebody wants you to do a search, just insert a record:
$query = insert into search(inputs) values('$CLEAN[inputs]');
where $CLEAN is your sanitized validated $_REQUEST input, of course.
$id = mysql_insert_id();
Your scrolling banner can than have a META Refresh of a few
seconds/minutes/whatever, and embed the $id into the URL for that.
See: http://php.net/mysql_insert_id
Then, of course, you need something to actually PERFORM the searches,
which is where a nice cron job comes in.
That cron job can start a new search task which will do this:
[in psuedo-code]
$pid = getmypid(); // or something like that:
UPDATE search set status = 1, search_pid = $pid where status = 0 LIMIT 1
SELECT id, inputs from search where search_pid = $pid
$id = $row['id'];
update search set status = 1 where id = $id
//do the search
//when done:
update search set status = 2, results = '$search_results' where id = $id
Doing it this way means you could even run several processes at once,
each working on a different search.
Note that the UPDATE marks the record as in progress and ties it to
the process running, so that there is NO race condition.
If MySQL does not support LIMIT 1 in an UPDATE, which I'm pretty sure
it does, but not 100% certain, then you'd have to just update all the
inputs available, and have the thread handle each search that it
took in the UPDATE.
You could still have an army of search processes, though, as new
search inputs are coming in all the time, and each search process
would handle however many were on the To Do (status 0) stack when
they started.
This is very scalable, and you could even buy more computers and throw
them at it, with just one database, provided you tagged the process_id
with a machine_id of some kind as well, to avoid duplciate process IDs
on 2 computers. I'll leave that part as an exercise.

You don't use globals inside a class to reference other data inside
the same class.
Instead you need to do something like this:
$add_location-url = 'blah';
then inside the class:

You're also better off embedding the parameters in the URL so that it looks like a directory to the browser: http://example.com/actual_script/57823642346963/copyright/whatever.png The PHP scritp is actual_script. You can use .htaccess and ForceType to make Apache run it. $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] will have all the parameters you need. The embedded parameters pretty much give the browser NO opportunity to screw up. Richard: Far out ! -- I never saw .htaccess and ForceType used before. But it works slick in dropping the extension of program.php to program. (Now if I can only get my editor to still treat the document as php, but that's a different matter). However, I don't see how I can generate a random number for a url each time an image is needed and have .htaccess and ForceType make Apache run it -- do I rewrite. htaccess each time, or what?

Yes, I absolutely agree that Rasmus is awesome and his accomplishments are far and beyond amazing, but I'm saying that I think that Rasmus is motivated to stay true to PHP's philosophies and not be willing to rethink them: that is what I meant by that. In no way am I saying that Rasmus doesn't DESERVE to align your theories with or your ideas with, but I think that he may be too vested in PHP and what he has been doing to realign himself. But of course, that is just conjecture. I'm just saying that I think he has vested interest and will be least of all willing to make the shift in thought (even if he did think it held some merit).

Re: [PHP] session_destroy
It doesn't matter, PHP decides automatically which is the best method to
make a session persist. If it founds that the client allows cookies,
cookies are used. If such method is not available, the session id is
writen to every url through an output buffer with an url rewriting
filter. There was another method before using the url rewriting but I
forgot, check the manual.

First of all, if you're using $_SESSION or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS, the PHP
manual will tell you to use unset($_SESSION['key']) rather than
session_unset(). Personally though, I've found the following code
works well for completely destroying a session:

Also, when using redirects, you should specify the complete absolute
URL, not a relative one. You can sometimes get away with using a
relative one but it's bad practice and breaks section 14.30 of RFC
2616 (the HTTP/1.1 specification).

Re: [PHP] how should MS Access DATETIME be handled in PHP?
Do the search as Richard suggested. MS Access might have a similar function you can use, but you'll need to do some searching yourself to find the answer. Sure. I always appreciate various opinions. I've checked with an Access expert. It can be done for Access like Format([DateFieldName], ). But if fields of date type should be formated as needed in the query, there is one situation in which I'm not clear how that would work. Say, I need to query all the fields from a table which has quite a fields. Some of the fields are of some kind of date type. Enumerating the fields is not feasible. SELECT * from table; So in this case, how should the date fields be formated in the query?

Re: [PHP] Re: no offense to Rasmus... are you kidding me
There's nothing wrong with staying true to the philosophy at all, I just think that it may well be detrimental in the end. And that is what I said in the (toilet)paper, that there will be (emphasis on the eventuality, not on the present actuality) a time that PHP will become the old stuff because it did not evolve with the philosophies. These philosophies are new and I can understand thinking that it's hype, but it's important to recognize it as legitimate. Agile Development (and the broader term Web 2.0) is, right now, the bleeding edge of development, and I and many others see it as the future of development philosophies. I'm not saying that Rasmus can't see, but that he will easily choose to stay with how he sees the forest – understandable as I choose to stay with what I see, but I think he has a lot invested in his view and may not open up as easily. To Stut: Honestly, I'd love to see basic variables be objects, as models of real world data with properties for the data such as a $number-length or $word-as_array() giving you letters. I know that PHP is a functional language, and secondly, an OO language, but I think that you can blend these things better and have the OO brought to the forefront a bit more. Yes, I'm a fan of OO, but I know that many people aren't and don't use PHP's OO (and don't when it's appropriate). But I know you can integrate OO without having to force the functional programmers to give up their way. This is just ONE thing that could make PHP better and allow for more modern philosophical development. Particularly, I would like to see more creativity. Sure, PHP's moving fast, but with our big things being Unicode support and removing globals and safe mode, I think that we could be a little more innovative for PHP6. Again, it's not behind the times right now, but the times are changing and I'd like to see PHP change with them.

Agile Development (and the broader term Web 2.0) is, right now, the bleeding edge of development, and I and many others see it as the future of development philosophies. I've yet to see anything Web 2.0 related that PHP cannot do now, today. Agile Development is a different kettle of fish, and a highly debatable one as to its merits. No-one here doubts the merits of Web 2.0 (if there is any such thing), we all know that if such methodologies wish to be used, they can be - right now.

Re: [PHP] programming contests as a way of finding/evaluating offshore talent...
This is just my personal opinion on the subject. I don't believe nowadays programming contests are of any worth when judging a developer's talent, at least not what I expect from a coder. These contests usually prove that an a coder can pull out an development as an individual, but from looking at the code, and the way they code, I realize that they aren't fit for an enviroment where working as a team is a must, at least that's the kind of coding I don't want to see in a project where I could be working. I haven't seen yet a contest where code which is written in a readable and understandable way earns more points. If a coder does his job faster than others but he's the only one who can understand the code, we'll have a problem when the client requires a new feature and he's not longer on our team. I would choose the one who takes his time but thinks carefully ahead and takes into account who will be using the code he's writting. If he is also good with documentation I'll even handcuff him to his desk and do anything to keep him in the team. bruce wrote: hi.. i'm looking for opinions on the worth of programming contests as a way of judging the talent of potential software developers... any thoughts/pros/cons would be appreciated.. and yeah.. i know this is a little off topic.. but some of us here deal with these issues.. if you know of a better email list for this kind of question, let me know, and i'll move it to there.. thanks in advance! -bruce -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: possible bug in date()
It appears this is a known bug that is/will be fixed in PHP 5.1.3. The current date code for DATE_W3C and DATE_ATOM (in 5.1.2) is Y-m-d\TH:i:sO. According to http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php , the other option for the last character is P which prints the difference from Greenwich mean time with a colon (as the examples for DATE_W3C and DATE_ATOM suggest). As a workaround, I've found that the string c produces the output I was expeciting to get from DATE_W3C and DATE_ATOM. This code: $this-dateCreated = date( c, ATOM, mktime( 0, 0, 0, 23, 2, 2006 ) ); Outputs this: 2006-02-23T00:00:00-08:00 Mark Mark Slater wrote: I'm trying to create a date with the DATE_W3C or DATE_ATOM format (they are the same format according to the examples), but the output of date doesn't match the example in the documentation. The http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.datetime.php page says the formats are as follows: DATE_ATOM (string) Atom (example: 2005-08-15T15:52:01+00:00) DATE_W3C (string) World Wide Web Consortium (example: 2005-08-15T15:52:01+00:00) DATE_ISO8601 (string) ISO-8601 (example: 2005-08-15T15:52:01+) If I create a date with this code: $this-dateCreated = date( DATE_ATOM, mktime( 0, 0, 0, 23, 2, 2006 ) ); echo $this-dateCreated; I expect to see: 2006-02-23T00:00:00-08:00 The output I actually get is the ISO-8601 format: 2006-02-23T00:00:00-0800 The only difference is the colon in the GMT offset at the end.

[PHP] Mnogosearch extension - not working with php 4.4.2
Hello guys, I'm hesitating on how to formulate this. I'm a newbie when it comes to PHP extensions/modules development, but I have a problem which forces me to go into source code for the mnogosearch extension (mnogosearch is an open-source search engine). The extension (version 1.96) has not been worked on since January 2005 and is unlikely to get any attention in the coming months from its authors, but upgrading PHP from 3.3.10 to 4.4.2 has broken it, and I am trying to figure out why. I have had a look at the PHP 4 changelog (http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-4.php) to see if I could spot anything obvious, but as I said I'm a newbie and don't exactly know what to look for. From the type of errors (very unclear and undetailed) that I get, my first guess would be that one function declaration in php_mnogo.c or php_mnogo.h would not be recognized anymore (because it used a funny declaration?). The php_mnogo.c and php_mnogo.h are located in this file: http://www.mnogosearch.org/Download/php/mnogosearch-php-extension-1.96.tar.gz (site is down at the moment but should be back up soon I guess) Could someone give me some advice on what to look for? (or have a look at these C files and tell me what's wrong - but I wouldn't dare asking) The files look very simple (just a few declarations, around 3000 lines :-) in all - including a lot of empty lines). Anyway, I would be glad for any kind of help you could provide me with around this. I suppose it would be easier if I could bring the difference to only one PHP version (like between 3.4.1 and 3.4.0) but I am afraid I don't have enough machines to screw up changing PHP versions all the time to try it. Also, if my guess is right that it would be a declaration not working anymore, I guess code changes related to extensions would have all been done in 4.0.0...

That said, as far as I can tell, your $formated_expiry_date is the

characters.
If the separation characters are ALWAYS the same, you could just do:
$current_date = date('Y/m/d H:i:s'); //match formatting of expiry date.

}
// Finally, destroy the session.
session_destroy();
// go over board and actually delete the file right here and now!
