There's not really a place to ask questions for writing extensions, but
most people here will not be able to answer your question, because they
only write PHP code.
The documentation for the Zend API is freely available from their website.
If it is not there, have a look at the source code, the best documentation
around for any product.
If you still have problems with an extension, the best place to ask would
be the PHP internals list, where the PHP devs hang around, but it does
probably require more understanding from your side first.
ZEND_API zend_op_array *(*org_compile_file)(zend_file_handle *file_handle,

{
php_stream *stream;
char *data_decode;
int data_decode_len;
Neither php_stream_write nor fwrite use the int type, use size_t instead.
/* ... */
/* Zend API Begin: This unsuccessful */
php_stream *tmpstream;
if ((tmpstream = php_stream_fopen_tmpfile()) == NULL) {

An abstract class provides functionality as well as an interface description. An abstract class cannot be instantiated, it can only be extended. The logging example given by someone earlier in this thread is the most common example given for interfaces. This is where the interface is defined as an API for others to implement and/or use which then enables users to pick and choose the combination of implementations they want to use based on their requirements without needing to change any of the code of either class. I understand the stated differences between abstract and interface. I can cite what the differences are, but I don't see the practical application differences. To me there is no difference between an abstract class (without method declarations) and an interface. However, I view an interface as a statement (a contract) where IF you want someone to use your code you outline the methods you require them to flesh-out in their code -- but I would like to see a simple example of that. I vaguely get the logging example given by Larry, but I'm not good at abstract thinking -- I need a concrete simple example. I tried to create a demo where I had a Toaster Class that contained breadNumber() and toastSetting() methods and then created an interface so my students could use the Toaster, but it didn't really hold up as well as I wanted. So, can anyone give me a simple example where an interface is used so I can easily explain why they are important? Thanks, tedd There are plenty, but they are never required. I see interfaces more as some kind of documentation in PHP code, they have much more advantages in other languages (eg. Java). A good example would be if you build a product that allows plugins to be used. You would create an interface (which requires the functions init, execute and finish for example), and state that any plugin should implement that interface and hese functions. It's the cleaner way of doing things, but it surely would work the same as if you didn't use an interface, and just told in your documentation that a class should have these 3 functions. - Matijn

Using the write function outside of the session_set_save_handler() it works perfectly, and then the read can see the saved sessions and can load them. I am convinced that something is wrong with the general setup which is preventing the write and close from firing when it should. I can not trace any attempt to call the write function in the session handling. I'm currently checking out the adodb-session handler which WAS working in PHP5.3 but seems to be showing similar problems in PHP5.4 Well, I'm not sure what would be the problem here, but some general comments: There have been various changes in session handling between 5.3 and 5.4, so most likely it is in there. Check if there are any references to register_shutdown_function, and replace them with session_register_shutdown. Second, check the return value of session_set_save_handler, it is a bad habit not checking return value of a function, just because it works. If that doesn't help, take the session piece out of the big framework, and test it in a separate file. If that also fails, you've got a small piece of code you can post here which will encourage others to have a look at it at their box. - Matijn

If you read the original question correctly, it's about a *new cookie* with the *same session id*. Second, if somebody is sniffing you he would also be able to grab the new session id, and yours (old and new one) will be useless if he uses the new session id before you do. Avoiding session hijacking is not that easy, it's much easier to just use an SSL connection.

Wow. This is just a spectacularly bad suggestion.

It is possible to write a whole parser as a single regex, being it terribly
long and complex.
That said, there's no other simple syntax that would work, for example in

I would have to disagree. There are things that regex just can't at a
fundamental level grok. Things like nested brackets (e.g. the standard
blocking syntax of C, javascript, php, etc.). It's not a parser, and
despite all the little lookahead/behind tricks that enhanced regex can
do, it can't at a fundamental level _interret_ the text it sees. This
task involves interpreting what the text you're looking for actually
means, and should therefore be handled by something that can
interpret.
I think it should be possible, but as I said, very very complex. Let's not
try it;)
Also, (I haven't tested it, but) I don't think that example you gave
would work. Without any sort of quoting around the http://;
, I would assume the JS interpreter would take that double slash as a
comment starter. Do tell me if I'm wrong, though.
Which is exactly what I meant. Because http is a var set to 5, it is a
valid case statement, it would be equal to:
switch(value) {
case 5: // Http case here! (this whould not be deleted)
// Do something
}
But any regex given above would treat the first one as a http url, and
won't strip the // and everything after it, though in this modified case it
will strip the comments.

In the PHP 5.4 configure script there is a new PHP_BINARIES variable being used instead of setting PHP_SAPI=cli and thus the #define ENABLE_CHROOT_FUNC 1 is never written to the output file. I have been able to manually enable it by adding the define to the main/php_config.h after running configure. The issue seems to be a line: if test program = program. This comparison being true is what causes the configure script to add cli to the PHP_BINARIES variable instead of setting the PHP_SAPI variable. The other prerequisites (HAVE_CHROOT and ZTS) are all at the required settings. It is only the ENABLE_CHROOT_FUNC which is causing the function to not be compiled into the resulting binary. Any information or explanation would be very helpful. For the record, I know what the chroot() function does and does not do. I am experimenting with using chroot() to isolate an already running script to a particular subset of the filesystem for file operations. -- - Aaron -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Where you want to redirect, it's up to you. If you want it to do on first attempt, better go with PHP so you can use Header(Location: ...) to redirect the user immediately so the user won't notice he is being redirected.

It would just break too much. I see lots of scripts that have things like
this:
$var = '12 beers';
echo $var + 4;
and they expect it to be 16 of course.
Or what about badly trimmed strings, when reading from a file it can
include extra line endings and it's so much easier to just ignore that
because PHP will convert it just fine.

Any client can upload any number of files (one at a time). Also, there is just one directory, where the files get stored finally (that is, after being copied from the temporary location, via move_uploaded_file) Also, I have been able to get the simple file uploading running via PHP, by picking up one of the numerous Hello World examples available :) Now, I am facing the following use-case :: 1) User 1 starts uploading a large file, say big_file.avi. 2) Meanwhile, user 2 also starts uploading a (different) file, but with the same name big_file.avi. In an ideal scenario, user 2 should be prompted with a message, that a file of the same name is already being uploaded by someone else somewhere. Is there a way to do this? ( Note that, had the user 2 started uploading AFTER user 1 had finished with the upload, we could probably modify the PHP-script at the sever-side, to let user-2 know that a file of the same name already exits. But I am failing to find a solution, when the user 2 starts the upload WHILE the large file of user 1 is in the process of completing uploading). Any way the issue may be solved? I will be grateful for any pointers :) Regards, Ajay Hi, This is not possible with PHP, PHP will not know about the file until the upload is completed. You can use HTML5 or flash(not recommended) for an alternative way of uploading, and then you can check the file name in advance. - Matijn

You can only access sessions when you know the session id.
Most sites handle online users in their database, store a timestamp each
time a user loads a page. When you want to display the online users, check
where the timestamp is between now and a few minutes ago. Note that without

Like Matijn said, unless you're using some kind of client-side method
to continually poll the server, you can't know if they've just closed
their browser. There are Javascript events for exiting a page, but they
don't work correctly on Safari and iOS Safari.
You don't have to actually save anything to the DB manually, just
instruct PHP to use the DB for its own sessions, rather than files.
Do you really need to inspect each visitors session in detail, or do
you just need a way to determine how many unique visitors are on the
site at any one time?
Thanks,
Ash
http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
I need to inspect each visitor to show how online or who offline for
chat
Like facebook chat
Ah, so you don't need to see the details of the sessions then. Facebook
does this (badly) by using javascript on the client side which triggers an
update of a timestamp on the server, which then allows you to determine who
is online (or was within a given time limit)
Thanks,
Ash
Maybe it's bad, but there's no good alternative, except sending ping
requests to your server every second or so, but any site as large as
Facebook will DDOS itself when using things like that ;)

I'm sorry, but this is just plain wrong.
The extension has nothing to do with the mysql service. In fact, a lot of
the larger websites have their database service running at a different
server, and probably don't even have the mysql service installed.

sudo apt-get install
php5-mysql
This package contains the PHP module that interfaces with the MySQL
server.
Could it be that the mysql service on the server has stopped.
Typically
you'd do something like this on RedHat/Fedora servers:
service mysqld status
That would certainly stop the extension working from within PHP.

Re: [PHP] How to send post-variables in a Location header

Hi all.
I have a scenario, wherein I need to do something like this ::
###
$original_url = /autologin.php;
$username = ajay;
$password = garg;
header('Location: ' . $original_url);
###
As can be seen, I wish to redirect to the URL autologin.php.
Additionally, I wish to pass two POST key-value pairs :: user=ajay and
password=garg (I understand that passing GET key-value pairs is trivial).
Is it even possible?
If yes, I will be grateful if someone could let me know how to redirect to
a URL, passing the POST key-value pairs as necessary.
Looking forward to a reply :)
Usually you would pass this around in sessions. If you must however use
post, you can only do so with using some javascript magic. Write a form
with hidden input and auto submit it.

My reason for asking is that I've used a Mousepad ever since mice first came out (back when they had one ball). Now that mice are optical (no balls), Mousepads are not really needed -- or so I'll told by the college -- you see, they don't provide Mousepads for their student's computers. As such, I wondered what's the percentage of programmers still using a Mousepad? Secondly, are Mousepads used primarily by older programmers (like me) while younger programmers don't use Mousepads, or what? So -- please respond with: Age: * Mousepad: Yes/No Age: 21 Mouse: No, so why would I need a mousepad?
