[PHP] Re: Same Page, Fundamentally Different Behavior OR is Firefox broken?
Matt Neimeyer a écrit : I'm at a complete loss... So I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to even start looking. We have an application written in PHP that lets users send out emails. The basic process is as follows. 1. Go to "start" screen. (This resets anything currently in process for the current logged in user) 2. Upload email addresses and other info (Names, etc) 3. Build Email 4. Send In Step 3 the user can click a "Live Preview" button to see what the email will look like with the merged data. Here's the problem, this works fine in all versions of IE, versions 1.5 or less of FireFox and versions 3 or less of Safari. However, starting in FireFox 2, and now Safari 4, when you get to step four OR click the live preview button in step three there is no more data in the merge. In those browsers the system is acting like the end user went BACK to the start page (in another window?) and reinitialized all the data. I immediately thought it might be pre-fetching so I tried using the system before and after toggling the network.prefetch-next setting in about:config with FireFox 2.0.0.20 and restarting the browser. No luck. So I added code to my reset function to email me the output of phpinfo() when the reset function is called. Using IE I get 1 notification. Using FF I get two notifications. This reinforces my theory that FireFox is prefetching the menu item to start a new mailing (just an link...) from the top of the composer page. Even still... I've disabled prefetch so it SHOULDN'T even be considering those links right? I've also tried adding artificial "?now=" fakes to the end of all menu links since I read somewhere (don't remember where) that FireFox only prefetches pages with no query section in the address.

[PHP] Dynamic Titles
Hello, im trying to make the CMS system im using more SEO friendly by giving
each page it's own title. Right now, the system assigns all pages the same
general title. I would like to use PHP to discertain which page is being viewed
and in turn, which title should be used.
I have put in the title tags the variable "$title". As for the PHP im using, I
scripted the following:
$url = "http://'.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']''.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']'";
switch ( $url )
{
default:
$title = "Photoshop tutorials, Flash tutorials, and more! Newtuts
Tutorial Search";
break;
case "$config[HTTP_SERVER]help.php" :
$title = "Newtuts Help";
break;
}
Right now, im getting this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting
T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in
/home/a7201901/public_html/includes/classes/tutorial.php on line 803
Can someone please help me with this?
Thanks!
[PHP] Beginner at writting a PHP Wrapper for C++ libraries
I am just beginning my foray into writing my own wrapper for a C++ library that maintained by someone else. I have ordered Sara Golemon's book "Extending and Embedding PHP" which should arrive in the next week or so, but until then I had a couple of questions that I was hoping might be able to be answered here. If this is the incorrect list to post this to, please let me know. Is it possible to use an object file from the C++ library directly in the config.m4 file? I attempted to create a symlink to the cpp file that I needed for my extension but I get a ton of errors when I try to make the extension and I am guessing it is because this one cpp file that I need requires a ton of other header files. Second question is, I thought I read somewhere that it was possible to create a stand alone extension that did not require the end user to install the .so file and then modify the php.ini file and restart the apache server. How can I do this with my extension and just call/load the .so file in my script(s) that need it?

Is the script being run located on the same system as which you're using the browser to (successfully) connect to the target host? If not, check to see if there's a network issue - a downed or improperly bound interface, SELinux restrictions, blacklisted by the remote machine, etc. - on the server on which the script it hosted.

[PHP] CURL intermittant problem
I have been having problems with a curl script which works normally with many different URLs but had a particular intermittant problem with a url in the following format: http://10.20.30.40/0001/032/023112/filename.phtml?param1=paramvalue1¶m2=paramvalue2 etc etc. The unusual thing about this URL is that is starts with an IP address. I got a lot of failures to connect, so tried a different way to connect as all I need is the page as a string: According to php.net, the function 'file_get_contents()' should work if allow_url_fopen is set to TRUE for the PHP installation. 'allow_url_fopen' is set to 1 in my php.ini file. http://php.net/file_get_contents http://php.net/allow_url_fopen However, 'file_get_contents' also fails to connect to this particular URL. It gives: "failed to open stream: Connection timed out in */home/shortsta/public_html/live48_test.php* on line *75* *Warning*: feof(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in */home/mysite/public_html/testpage.php* on line *79*" The target URL works perfectly and quicly if put directly into the browser URL line. Do you know of any other reasons for problems with such a connection? John -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] PHP 5.3.0RC3
Hello! we have packaged PHP 5.3.0RC3, which you can find here: http://downloads.php.net/johannes/ Windows binaries are available here: http://windows.php.net/qa/ This third release candidate focused on bug fixes and stability improvements and we hope to only require minimal changes ahead of the next release. Many, but not all, of the new features are already integrated in the official documentation on php.net. Please not that we are aware of a few minor issues including that we still want to fix for the final release. We are aiming for an RC4 next week followed by the final release in the week after. For most users there will not be a noticeable change meaning that now is the time to really do the final testing of PHP 5.3.0 before it gets released with any unnecessary incompatibilities with your project. Some additional links to get started: http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-src/NEWS?view=markup&pathrev=PHP_5_3 http://wiki.php.net/doc/scratchpad/upgrade/53 Best Regards, Lukas and Johannes PHP 5.3 Release Managers -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hiyah, Well the mysql docs confirm that utf8_general_ci is accent-insensitive and case-insensitive ( http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.4/en/charset-collation-implementations.html). Which implies that maybe you don't actually have utf8 text in that field. If you do a SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set%'; what do you get for character_set_client, character_set_results and character_set_connection? -robin

I'd recommend that you *always* use ENT_QUOTES as the second parameter on
htmlentities or htmlspecialchars. Otherwise a single ' will not be escaped,
which may be evil.
Also be sure that you don't code a possibility to include local or even
remote files: It's so easy to Inject code into logfiles.
include('whatever'.$_REQUEST['var'].'.whatever') is not a sufficient
protection.
Also, like someone already mentioned, *always* prefer _POST over _REQUEST,
when dealing with a FORM with method POST!

Sure - these control structure doesn't make sense - but who would write it

Guess 99% would rather write smth like that:
if (empty($data) || !is_numeric($data)) {
return false;
}

Well, I like the fact that the process is out of code, when you return
early. On the other hand, a single return is handy... Guess it depends on
the subject.

It WON'T sort correctly if you are storing the entities. Make sure you are storing the actual characters in your database, and then make sure that you are sending the correct content-type header when you serve the page. If you try to serve UTF-8 characters but your server is sending a Content-Type: ISO-8859-1; header, you will get placeholders in FF for characters that aren't recognized.

My collation is already uft8_general_ci. Adding that condition to the query changes nothing; and specifying another collation return a blank or null and the list is not echoed.

[PHP] Same Page, Fundamentally Different Behavior OR is Firefox broken?
I'm at a complete loss... So I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to even start looking. We have an application written in PHP that lets users send out emails. The basic process is as follows. 1. Go to "start" screen. (This resets anything currently in process for the current logged in user) 2. Upload email addresses and other info (Names, etc) 3. Build Email 4. Send In Step 3 the user can click a "Live Preview" button to see what the email will look like with the merged data. Here's the problem, this works fine in all versions of IE, versions 1.5 or less of FireFox and versions 3 or less of Safari. However, starting in FireFox 2, and now Safari 4, when you get to step four OR click the live preview button in step three there is no more data in the merge. In those browsers the system is acting like the end user went BACK to the start page (in another window?) and reinitialized all the data. I immediately thought it might be pre-fetching so I tried using the system before and after toggling the network.prefetch-next setting in about:config with FireFox 2.0.0.20 and restarting the browser. No luck. So I added code to my reset function to email me the output of phpinfo() when the reset function is called. Using IE I get 1 notification. Using FF I get two notifications. This reinforces my theory that FireFox is prefetching the menu item to start a new mailing (just an link...) from the top of the composer page. Even still... I've disabled prefetch so it SHOULDN'T even be considering those links right? I've also tried adding artificial "?now=" fakes to the end of all menu links since I read somewhere (don't remember where) that FireFox only prefetches pages with no query section in the address. Has anyone run into this behavior before? Any recommendations on how to stop it? Preferably from the server with code of some sort... Thanks in advance.

Depends on the database. If you're using mysql, the order is governed by the collation used. To get the order you want, you need a case-insensitive and accent-insensitive collation.

RE: [PHP] Mail function and hotmail
Hello, Thank you all for your cooperation yesterday. I tried PEAR Mail_mime as
follows:
function SendEmail($template, $params){
// Read and open the template file and the image file
$htmlFile = fopen("./templates/$template.html", "r");
$txtFile = fopen("./templates/$template.txt", "r");
$htmlMsg = fread($htmlFile, filesize("./templates/$template.html"));
$textMsg = fread($txtFile, filesize("./templates/$template.txt"));
// Replace the template values
foreach($params as $key => $value){
// Template values will always start with two hash marks ##
if(substr($key, 0, 2) == "##"){
$htmlMsg = str_replace($key, $value, $htmlMsg);
$textMsg = str_replace($key, $value, $textMsg);
}
}
// Create the appropiate headers
$headers = array(
"From" => "n...@domain.ca",
"Reply-To" => "n...@domain.ca",
"Subject" => $params["subject"],
"Organization" => "Name"
);
// Create the mime object
$mime = new Mail_mime();
$mime->setTxtBody($textMsg);
$mime->setHTMLBody($htmlMsg);
$mime->addHTMLImage("templates/emaillogo.jpg", "image/jpg",
"templates/emaillogo.jpg");
// Set the variables for the Mail object to send the message
$body = $mime->get();
$headers = $mime->headers($headers);
$mail =& Mail::factory("mail");
return $mail->send($params["email"], $headers, $body);
}
However, hotmail is still getting blank emails when I sent them from my
production machine (CentOS 5.3), however, when I send the message from my
development machine (Visata Ultimate SP1) it does work correctly on hotmail
address . Both machines are running php 5.2 and have the same PEAR packages.
I tried Gmail, Yahoo mail and Thunderbird and they work fine.
Your help will be much appreciated.

RE: [PHP] Why [?php while (true) { sleep(5); } ?] dies on CLI?
One of two things is happening:
- PHP is crashing, maybe a memory leak, etc.
Or
- That while(true) loop is exiting, and the script is completing.
Would be interesting to know which, try adding this after the loop:
$fp = fopen('/tmp/test','w');
fputs($fp, 'My script left the loop and exited cleanly. True ==
false.');
fclose($fp);
Back on my first point, have you kept an eye on the memory usage over
the 3 hours? If your version of PHP has a memory leak with while() or
sleep() (would be odd), a bazillion iterrations could break the PHP
defined memory limit (8M by default) and cause it to exit abruptly.
Are you capturing the output anywhere? For example, in Linux is it
being run from cron or another script? Try redirecting STDOUT and
STDERR somewhere useful, i.e.:
php my_php_script > /tmp/scriptoutput 2>&1
(2>&1 means "output stream 2 [stderr] to the same place as stream 1")
Hope any of these crazy ideas are helpful...

Shouldn't be max execution time issue if he's running the CLI. Maybe
account limits? Maybe the above snippet isn't what's really happening...
I mean what purpose would the above script serve for 3 hours? Looks like
it's been dumbed down for us dummies on the list.

[PHP] dynamic navigation menu
Please can some one help me with a dynamic menu. I have a 2 tables and I want to display the record from the first one as parent and the second one as the child. My problem is when I query the data I can't place the child at their appropriate position. Please you help will be appreciated.
