[PHP] Php 4.3 fails several XSLT tests

2003-01-01 Thread Alok K. Dhir

After compiling php 4.3 configured as follows:

# ./configure  --with-java --with-pdflib=/usr/local --with-gd --with-ttf
--enable-trans-sid --with-curl --with-openssl --enable-sysvsem
--enable-sysvshm --with-zlib --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-freetype-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr

--enable-ftp --with-iodbc=/usr --with-oci8 --with-imagick --enable-xslt
--with-xslt-sablot=/usr/local --with-expat-dir=/usr

The new 'make test' routine fails several of the XSLT test.  I've pasted
all the XSLT test results below - note that many are failures.

Is this expected behavior?  If not, can anyone provide hints as to what
might be the problem?  Some of these tests seem to point to non-existent
functions (xslt_set_object) so perhaps these tests are irrelevant?

RE: [PHP] session lost when back button hit?

2002-08-16 Thread Alok K. Dhir


By any chance, is page one the entrance page to your application?
I.e. is there a session id in either the query string of the page URL or
was there one passed to it via a POST?

Without cookies enabled, there is no way to allow users to use the back
button to go back to the entrance page while maintaining the session.

One (hackish) solution to this is to cause the entrance page to
immediately redirect to itself using either PHP's header function, or a
meta refresh.  Your goal here is to make it so that hitting back from a
secondary page would take you to the post-refreshed entrance page which
has the session ID.

Good luck.

 Subject: [PHP] session lost when back button hit?
 
 
 I have two pages, page one links to page two via a form button. The 
 browser does not accept cookies.
 
 On page two I create a session variable with:
 
 $_SESSION[id] = 1;
 
 But if I hit the back button to go back to page one 
 $_SESSION[id] is 
 not set. If I hit the reload button on page one it is still not set.
 
 How can I get a session var to stay set when someone hits the 
 back button?

RE: [PHP] The so-called improvment in PHP 4.2.0

2002-04-22 Thread Alok K. Dhir

Change your scripts.  It's relatively easy to cause variables in the
superglobal arrays to be set in the global namespace.  Code samples for
this appear in various places in the the user contributed notes in the
PHP documentation.

A quick and dirty working example:

foreach (array_merge($_POST,$_GET) as $key=$val) {
global $$key;
$$key=$val;
}

If you include the above at the top of all your existing scripts, they
should continue to function.

As always, caveat emptor...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...


 My cheap trick around this is to have an onClick event on the form 
 submit button that brings up a small window with a progress note in 
 it, and an animated gif of a prgress bar.

 As the page does not unLoad until the upload is finished, I use the 
 unLoad event of the body tag to close that progress window.

 Generally works really well for me. I can show you an example if you 
 like.

  I have a POST form with a file upload field. Users will be uploading

  pictures. What would be the most professional way to tell them their

  file is uploading and to please wait? Since the action page won't 
  execute until after the image is done uploading, is there a way to 
  have an intermediary
  page load telling them to please wait, and that page will take the
image
  and
  upload it? Or should I just put a note in the upload form warning
them
  about
  the long upload times and gray out the submit button with javascript
  after
  it's clicked?

 Ricardo,
I've had some strange problems with session writing, but 
 they always returned back to the fact that return false was 
 being used in the session read function.  PHP 4.0.6 wouldn't 
 write out sessions when register_globals was set to off when 
 you were using return false.  PHP 4.1.0 crashes with signal 
 11 after a bit when using return false. I've filed a couple 
 of bug reports with the request that this be fixed. I believe 
 a patch is either being worked on or already submitted, but 
 I'm not positive.
 
Sean's problem is that he's using return false in his 
 session read function.  The session read function should 
 return a blank value ('') and not false when there's no data. 
  This was never clear in the documentation (and complaint I 
 made) but is quite true.  Once switching over to using ('') 
 instead of (false), I no longer had problems.

 Hi Sean !
 
 I had the same problem... this can be resolved using the 
 function session_write_close() at the end of each script 
 you use sessions. It will force PHP to call the write and 
 close function.
 
 In some combinations of PHP version, Apache and OS, this 
 problem doesn't happens, but as you, I had this problem too.. :)
 
 Put this function in yours PHP scripts and see if now them will work.
 
 Here is an exemple of a test script:
 
 ?php
 error_reporting( E_ALL );
 ini_set(session.save_handler,user);
 include( ./mysession.php );    where is my session

 which sounds like it's having problems writing to the

 handler?  If 
   not, make sure your php.ini file has:
   
 session.save_handler = files
   
   And *NOT*:
 session.save_handler = user
   
   That will make a big difference.
  
  Good eye. That was it. I *did* have it as user because I

Ps2pdf will do EPS.  Make sure you have a recent version (it's part of
the ghostscript package).

For .doc, look at http://www.wvware.com.  It does a reasonable job, but
complex documents will convert poorly.  I haven't yet found a
non-commercial source for converting MS Office documents well.

The only decent commercial package for Linux I've found which does the
MS Office formats (and many others) is KeyPAK (http://www.keypak.com).

RE: [PHP] Re: PHP 4.1.0 and User-defined Sessions

2001-12-13 Thread Alok K. Dhir

FWIW, and I don't have time to try to debug this right now, so I've
rolled back to 4.0.6 on my dev server (never upgraded production), I too
am seeing seemingly random segfaults (Sig 11) from php 4.1.0 + Apache
1.3.22.  All is well in 4.0.6 (and 1.3.22).

I, too, am using a database bound custom session handler - specifically,
the one for mysql by Yin Zhang (session_mysql.php), and my site(s) make
heavy use of sessions.

When I free up a bit, I'll try running some tests (disabling sessions,
etc) to see if I can get to the bottom of this.

Here's my config line:

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local \
--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \
--with-pdflib=/usr/local \
--with-ttf \
--with-gd \
--enable-trans-sid \
--with-curl \
--with-openssl \
--enable-sysvsem \
--enable-sysvshm \
--with-zlib

Redhat 7.1 + kernel 2.4.16.

 I've been trying to work something up running httpd -X,

 Can gdb help with running httpd *without* the -X?  
 
 I've tried ab, but I think I'm going to try again (running ab 
 multiple times on different pages to try and simulate real

 unable to get Apache(PHP) to segfault on a test server with 
 single access only.
 
 I took a look at the PostgreSQL session code on Zend (which I

 the possibility of stale session data being loaded up.  This 
 is a simple one to fix, but important for me.  I notice that 
 you have the row locking in the SELECT for the session_read.  
 Will this cause PostgreSQL to deny read access for another

 that second connection wait until the first is done?  I guess 
 I'll have to test that out.  If you want, I can switch over 
 to your code and to prove it's not the session_handler code itself.
 
 How busy are the sites you maintain that use the session 
 handler code? (In requests per minute, etc.)
 
 I noticed your comment on the mm code.  Like I said, I was a

report a stat failed warning as a bonus.  Using @is_dir to quiet it

[PHP] Sharing session data with Perl

2001-07-09 Thread Alok K. Dhir


Is there a published spec of the format of the session data string?  

It would greatly simplify one of my applications if I could share data
between PHP and Perl using sessions.  Since I use MySQL to store session
information, it would be trivial for me to make a call to a Perl script
with a session id, and, within Perl, grab the session data, parse it,
use it, perhaps even change it, and then return control back to my PHP
application.

So, if I knew the exact format of the data string, I could avoid having
to try to guess at its structure, and write a Perl routine to decode it
and store it in a session hash...

Has anyone tried this before?

Thanks
.

RE: [PHP] Sharing session data with Perl

2001-07-09 Thread Alok K. Dhir


I thought of this, but have the following reservations:

1.  It seems cleaner to implement this on the Perl side since it will be
a fairly uncommon requirement.

2.  I don't like to mess with working applications (other
session-enabled PHP apps on the server).

3.  I have as yet been unsuccessful in coming up with the right voodoo
to get ini_set and it's associates to work in a consistent manner (in
order to affect just this application).  Of course, I haven't tried with
session.serialize_handler, but I have no reason to believe it will
work consistently given my experience with trying to mess with ini_set
in other contexts (sendmail_from comes to mind).

4.  WDDX as a session serializer is likely significantly less tested
than the native serializer, and this is not the type of application
where I can afford to be a beta tester.

5.  I'd rather not incur the additional overhead that WDDX will likely
institute if I make it my default session serializer.

Thanks for the quick response.

 I would use the WDDX serializer if you are interested in 
 cross-platform sharing of the data.  In your php.ini file use:
 
 session.serialize_handler = wddx
 
 Then use the WDDX Perl module to decode it in Perl.

  Brandon,
 
  Neither Netscape nor any other browser has any clue that 
 PHP is being 
  used on the server.  All broswers simply interpret the html, 
  javascript, java, etc.that gets sent to them.  PHP is not a 
 factor in 
  whatever is causing a browser to misbehave.  For Netscape 
 it's often 
  an improperly formed table that causes trouble.  I 
 occassionally find 
  that people also use IE-centric code without realizing it 
 (or perhaps 
  without caring initially).

RE: [PHP] achive style message center

2001-05-14 Thread Alok K. Dhir

If you're looking primarily for mailing list software with web
archiving, look no further than Mailman (www.list.org).  If you're
looking for web discussion software, then there's tons of good, php
based, web discussion forum software out there, a lot of it GPLed.
Search freshmeat.net.

What I have yet to see is a unified software package which combines all
the features of mailing list software with a web discussion system -
i.e. true two way interaction support for any boards from either
interface (email / web).

RE: [PHP] reverse array for mysql data

2001-05-01 Thread Alok K. Dhir

You're looking in the wrong place.  What you want to do should be
handled at the database level.  I.e. your SQL query should be something
like:

select title,body from junkyard order by item_number desc, limit
7

Since you refer to what you want as the 'top 7' entries, there is
presumably some sort of order that you are attempting to enforce in what
you display.  The way you currently have your query formed, the results
you get back are not guaranteed to have any order.  You must add the
order by clause.  

The next problem you're likely to have, is that you don't have any way
of enforcing order in your database other than the item number, which is
probably not what you want.  In this case, what is it that determines
whether something is in the 'top 7'?  Is it based on time?  Is it
alphabetical?  Whatever it is, you need to sort by the corresponding
field.

My guess is that you're going to want to add a timestamp column to your
database, and order by that, descending (i.e. highest to lowest).

Once you do this, you don't need to change your php code at all which
executes the query and displays the results.

Good luck.

Al

 Subject: [PHP] reverse array for mysql data
 
 
 I'm new at programing and not getting very far with this.  
 I've looked at array_revers and array_multisort and can't 
 get anything to work. What I have is a mysql table laid out like:
 
 item number |  title | body text | subject heading
 
 What I want to do is pull the top 7 entries off and display 
 them on a web page.  I have written some code that will do 
 this but when it prints to the web page the first item is 
 printed at the top and I would like it on the bottom with 
 later entries successively on top.  How can I do this?  Hear 
 is the code I have so far:
 
 $result = mysql_query (SELECT title, body FROM junkyard 
 LIMIT 0, 7); $i = '0';
 
 while ($i  7) {
 if ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {
 echo $row[0] br /$row[1];
 ++$i;
 }
 }
 
 Thanks,
 kent

RE: [PHP] db to xls

2001-04-24 Thread Alok K. Dhir


If you really want to create Excel files directly from php, the attached
file (untested) may help.  I found this somewhere on the net while
looking for the same solution.

What I wound up using is the _excellent_ Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module
for Perl.  We simply call the perl CGI for that function of our web app.
Works great!  It also has a Spreadsheet::ParseExcel companion which
works equally well.

The only problem we had with this was not being able to get to the
contents of the session while in Perl.  Could have jumped through some
hoops to get it, but wound up hacking around it by using a long query
string with the pertinent parameters (ugly, but works).

 You can query the oracle database and generate a text file 
 with tab delimiter. Then you can open this file in Excel.

[PHP] Session_register

2001-04-20 Thread Alok K. Dhir


Is there a down side to registering a var with the session more than
once?  I.e. which would be preferred and why in a frequently accessed
page in a web application:

session_register('var');

or

If (!session_is_registered('var') session_register('var');

FWIW - either way seems to work without any apparent issues.  Seems the
first way avoids a seemingly unnecessary conditional operation.

Thanks...

Al
