RE: [PHP] case ?
here we go, from Zeev: As of PHP 4.0.3, the implementation of require() no longer behaves that way, and processes the file 'just in time'. That means that in the 1st example, the file will be processed a hundred times, and in the 2nd example, it won't be processed at all. That's the way include() behaves (in all versions of PHP) as well. November 14-th ...

RE: [PHP] mixing HTML and PHP code

I was wondering what it does that makes it good for PHP. That's a hard one to answer--I'll try anyway. I'm sorry if it sounds a bit simple-minded but that's the sort of person I am ;-). XML stands for eXtensible Markup Language. It's an attempt by both large corporations (notably Microsoft, Oracle, and IBM) as well as the standards organizations (notable the W3C) to create a "lingua franca" for the web. A lot of understanding it has first to have a slightly different perspective of what we mean by "the internet" and "the web". First when most people say "the internet" now, they pretty much mean "the web" and e-mail. When people say "the web" they mean HTTP and HTML (with a little SSL thrown in for e-commerce). HTTP is the transport protocol (how it is delivered) and HTML is the markup language (the message). XML attempts to replace and supersede HTML without saying anything about HTTP (though one can assume that most of the delivery will be done via HTTP, much to the chagrin of many security administrators who depend on firewalls). XML is a markup language like HTML. Unlike HTML, the markup language is extensible (basically think of it as saying you can define your own tags and attributes). This means you can make descriptive tags such as book type="paperback"AUTHORJoe Blogs/AUTHORTITLESATs - How to be beaten by the system/TITLESUBJECTTest preparation/SUBJECT/book Which looks a lot like HTML but isn't. Interestingly, the tags are descriptive of the content which beats the hell out of UN/EDIFACT if you've ever had to do any work for big business. Other differences are the rules are more rigid than HTML: all tags must close, all attributes must be quoted, all reserved characters must be escaped properly, all tags and attributes are case sensitive. The default format for display is double byte encoded characters (UTF-16 / UNICODE) (Note: The default used by PHP seems to be UTF-8 so you should change it to that charset in the XML directives line).- So basically what you have when you are done is a text based hierarchical data structure that's extensible and machine readable. That's all XML is. Now the things you can do with it. Obviously for one I can use this to serialize objects in PHP very easily since I can store objects in XML representation which is just a string to be saved. The WDDX module does that in some standard way. A note about standards. Since XML is extensible, there is a need to be specified so that I can communicate with you and we understand each other. XML is really more like a markup language FORMAT than a language (or seen another way, it's a standard but not a specification). There are various specifications and attempts at specifications out there and are usually referred to as DTDs, Document Type Definitions, or Schema. It used to be you specified your Schema in another markup language called SGML but then some people figured if XML is so extensible you should be able to specify your own Schema in an Schema language which itself is XML. This is known, not surprisingly, as XML Schema. Which represents another thing you can do with XML: Use XML to specify XML data formats. A useful one for web programmers right now is you can use XML to turn XML into other XML formats. This is done through XSL-T (eXtensible Stylesheet Language - Transform) which is built into a PHP module called Sablotron (Side Note: I couldn't compile Sablotron 0.50 in PHP yet, it failes during the linking step in Apache and claims that it can't find some library that is in Expat). Sablotron (and many XML-T parsers) is a little robust in that you can use it to transform it into HTML and text too. This warrants a bit larger description... Basically XSL works by taking an input XML file (we'll call this the "data store") and using another XML file written using the XSL specification (we'll call this the "rules file") to create another file in a different XML format (we'll all this the "presentation file"). Obviously when the presentation file is in XML, we can chain another rules file to it to make another presentation file and so on. XSLT parsers such as Sablotron allow us to do just that. Why is this powerful? The best way is through examples (1) Our company builds a search engine that goes out and does a real-time travel comparison engine of 25 separate travel

RE: [PHP] Ethics question...
Well, I can agree with that too.. but something you will always have to give them, something like support/update of the software, allow them to do something they wouldn't like to do without the license etc... It is a VERY HARD thing writing a RIGHT license... we (maybe except you, Rasmus) are just more likely not good enough to write a good license, the one which will totally satisfy a customer and will encourage him to purchase it. my point is: licenses aren't codes - if you are a programmer you'll have some hard time writing it well.

[PHP] db backup script needed
Hello guys, I need a script that backs up the database running under cron. I just wrote an internal (quite important, but not fast growing) database and I HAVE TO release it by next Monday. Something is going quite strange in it on updates, it often updates other fields that it shouldn't touch... some staff amazingly is getting inserted where I don't tell him to... some fields are even being deleted... you can imagine this nightmare... in other words I haven't had time enough to test it and in order to release it I want to back it up the working database on a daily basis. So I can still hack with it while it is being operated... oopps, again wrote too long ... anyway, is there any script like that (fast and dirty is ok) to run on MySQL, PHP4.0.2 ?

RE: [PHP] What PHP Stands For....
Rasmus, you are genius! This is one of the coolests postings of yours I ever read in here. I will now know how to talk about that guy who made it and what PHP stands for. I, personally, always knew it but never could explain myself: The replies from my clients on my "well, then maybe we should design it in PHP" usually are: "PHP"? What is "PHP"? What do you mean by "PHP" ? is that... ? oh... really? but "Hypertext Preprocessor" is "HPP" ... hmm makes no sense... oh... "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor"? nor even that makes sense enough... that would be "PHPHPP" ... hmm... ...and so on;...and so on;..and so on BUT Now I will have something to print out and to bring in my bag with me all the time awaiting for these naive interrogations. :-)) You are my saver, Rasmus! Cheers, Maxim Maletsky -Original Message- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2001 8:50 AM To: Toby Butzon Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Brian White Subject: Re: [PHP] What "PHP" Stands For That's the truth. PHP started out as a set of "Personal Home Page tools" (1st version), then PHP/FI (PHP + form interpretter [or something similar - I'm not sure 'form interpretter' is completely correct, but that was basically the functionality of the FI portion])... anyway, then sometime during PHP3/4 they opted to change it to Hypertext Preprocessor... it wasn't really just "personal home page tools" anymore ;) Anyway, I only know what I read - I got to the scene to late to actually know this stuff first hand... hope this helps... and if someone who really was on the scene back then cares to comment/correct me, please do ;) I sort of do. ;) The first thing I put out was a collection of cgi scripts collectively known as the Personal Home Page Tools. These were tools I was using on my own home page to track hits on my resume, do custom logging to mSQL and other things. I had another tool that wasn't really part of the package that I used to process form data. Because I am a lazy sod, I kept the filename short. It was just "fi" in my cgi-bin directory. I sat down and completely rewrote the parser behind the PHP Tools and at that point it became very obvious that the little FI tool needed to be an integral part of the package. That's where the whole concept of bringing form variables directly in and making them available to all the different tools came from. When talking to people I described it as PHP/FI a couple of times as a bit of a joke (because it looked like TCP/IP) and it just stuck. I couldn't think of a better name and people were starting to use it, so I just left it. When the development team grew and the next rewrite hit (PHP 3) it was decided to drop the rather akward /FI part and just make it PHP, but since even at this time it had grown to be significantly more than a set of tools for personal home pages, that meaning was also dropped. A name vote ensued and all the proposed names sucked, so this PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor name was deemed to suck the least. So that's where we are. As far as I am concerned PHP is just PHP. It doesn't stand for anything. -Rasmus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It's ment to test the validity of a login attempt with a user and passoword
by updateing the colum visits to a new value. But weather or not this update
passes or fails the return value seems to be 1 as the page is rediredted to
the logged in page.
Also can I update the visits value in the SQL command I've tried
visits=visits+1 but that does not seem to work even though I have seen this
done with a $variable instead of the value one.
Any help would be appreciated.

[PHP] |O:T| Can anyone translate for me this Perl code into PHP?
Hello guys,
I *know* it is totally OT, but, I need your help...
Below is a piece of PERL code that I am trying to "translate" into PHP. It
is quite simple code needed to send emails within a newsletter.
I kind of tried to rewrite it in PHP but since I know *nothing* about Perl I
found myself asking what does that means and what this...
Could anyone who knows Perl that well write me a sketch of the equal script
in PHP?
It is simple, I can see it, but I do not understand what is that RegEx for,
what is $pid ( fork() ) and where does it actually send emails...
Thanks in advance,

RE: [PHP] last_insert_id function
no it will keep it very well. In fact most common errors with this function is that it still keeps the same value when you do something wrong. This issue is described in more details on every single manual that has LAST_INSERT_ID() in it - read where you found it ... it is written there ... I am sure ... However, on my opinion this function is very reliable. I use it a lot when have to create a script which splits some few huge tables into a dozen of well designed ones. Because redesigning the database you really have to relate your data to each other. LAST_INSERT_ID() does a good job.

Subject: RE: [PHP] last_insert_id function
for example:
$SQL = "INSERT INTO users SET name='Maxim', surname='Maletsky'";
now you have to insert into another table where you need to relate that
user
to the entry:
$SQL2 = "INSERT INTO questions SET question='how did you sleep?',

LAST_INSERT_ID() will be here equal to the auto_incremented id of the

I got this quote right out of the php manual. My Id field happen to be

BIGINT as it said so I tried using LAST_INSERT_ID(); and turn out to be

mysql_insert_id() converts the return type of the native MySQL C API

RE: [PHP] Urgent help needed, sound scary when anyone did that on title :-)
you know Jacky, there's another, less cool and less reliable way to get the
last inserted id:
SELECT id FROM table ORDER BY id DESC;
it will sort them all giving you the biggest id *number* (not what mysql
keeps) and you can keep it for as many milliseconds your script will run
more...
So if nothing else works for you - try this...
(depends on how secure stable you want your application to be, of
course...)

Hi people,
I got here the syntax that is suppose to get the id from the "just inserted"
record and store it in value, did not work so far and I cannot see what is
wrong in there, can anyone give me a hint what is wrong here? ( And the
reason I did not use mysql_insert_id here is because the ID field at my
tables are all BIGINT so mysql_insert_id won't work, so I have to use
LAST_INSERT_ID() instead). By the way, the error after the page is executed
keep saying that "Mysql warning : 0 is not Mysql index" ( and point to the
line "$FirstLast = mysql_result($resultlast,0,0);"). And I did echo for the
value of $FirstLast, it showed that there is no value in there.
Sniplet is like this: ( I tried to keep this down as much as try to give
most detail at the same time, so apologize for too long sniplet).
$sql1 = "insert into firsttable (firstname, lastname)
values('Jack','Chan')";
$resultsql1 = mysql_query($sql1);
$sqlLastID = "select LAST_INSERT_ID() from firsttable";
$resultlast = mysql_query($sqlLastID);
$FirstLast = mysql_result($resultlast,0,0);
$sql2 = "insert into secondtable (FirsttableID,secfirstname, seclastname)
values('$FirstLast','Jacky','Chany')";
$resultsql2 = mysql_query($sql2);
$sqlLastIDsec = "select LAST_INSERT_ID() from secondtable";
$resultlast2 = mysql_query($sqlLastIDsec);
$secondLast = mysql_result($resultlast2,0,0);
$sql3 = "insert into Thirdtable (SecondTableID,FirsttableID,Thirdfirstname,
Thirdlastname) values('$secondLast','$FirstLast','Steve','Chan')";
$resultsql3 = mysql_query($sql3);
$sqlLastIDthird = "select LAST_INSERT_ID() from Thirdtable";
$resultlast3 = mysql_query($sqlLastIDthird);
$ThirdLast = mysql_result($resultlast3,0,0);
**
what have I done wrong? Please enlighten me here
Thanks

RE: [PHP] question ! show binary
Why on the earth would you do that?
It always happens to me associate images with my databases but I never
actually insert them in. I just *copy* these graphics to somewhere on my
server (or often even on in a webroot) and give them a logic name.
So then when you need to call a graphic you do ( in case the images are in
the webroot ):
?
$img_dir = '/images';
$img_path = $img_dir.$id_from_db . '.gif';
if(file_exests($DOCUMENT_ROOT.$img_path))
echo 'IMG SRC="' . $img_path . '"';
?
then here you can eve find out what are they look like ... GetImageSize()
etc ...

Subject: [PHP] Naughty Word Catcher
Hi all,
Ive just been asked whether I can do the following task.
When a block of text is submitted via a web form, for it to be checked for
offensive words, and rejected if there is.
So I put my brain hard to work and came up with a possibly solution. I know
this method should work but im wondering if I should tackle it a different
way.
This is just a rough, typed-off-the-top-of-my-head to show the method
rather than correct code.
The idea was to have a list of offensive words or phrases in a MySQL
database, and the script would take the block of text, and do the following
$query="select naughty_words from prude_list";
$result=mysql_query($query);
while ($loop=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$naughty_word_checker =
stristr("$block_of_text","$loop[naughty_words]");
if ($naughty_word_checker) {
header("Location: error.php?reason=prudes_wont_like_it");
} else {
header("Location: insert_stuff.php?comment=$block_of_text");
}
}
or is there a better, more efficient way of doing it. Im pretty sure the
concept of above will work because if there is a match, stristr() should
return text, otherwise it shouldnt return anything (or if im wrong, a
little fine tuning will sort that out).
Thanks
Chris

RE: [PHP] Naughty Word Catcher
Actually your function does header() on each loop ...
This is correct ..
snip
$query="select naughty_words from prude_list";
$result=mysql_query($query);
while ($loop=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
if(stristr("$block_of_text","$loop[naughty_words]")) {
$Gotcha = 1;
Break;
}
if(!$Gotcha)
header("Location: error.php?reason=prudes_wont_like_it");
else
header("Location: insert_stuff.php?comment=$block_of_text");

mysql_insert_id() is a PHP function for it. however I recommend you using a build-in SQL function LAST_INSERT_ID(). i.e: INSERT INTO table SET name='$name', surname='$surname'; UPDATE table SET name='$name', surname='$surname' WHERE id=LAST_INSERT_ID() Cheers, Maxim Maletsky -Original Message- From: Sandeep Hundal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 02, 2001 12:44 PM To: PHP General Subject: [PHP] How do I get last inserted ID?

[PHP] configuring headers in mail() ...
Hello Guys,
to be short:
1. what I'm doing:
I need to send some email recipients of which are some users from a
database. (this part perfectly works)
What I care about is that when they receive the email they see 'J-Door
Newsletter' in their from field, not our email address (
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' mailto:'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' )
3. how I'm doing it:
below is the PHP code followed by what message header looks like on received
email.
snip
$from = '"' . $POSTED['from_name'] . '" ' . $POSTED['from_email'] . '';
mail( $rec['email'],
stripslashes($POSTED['subject']),
stripslashes(str_replace('%name%', $rec['name'], $POSTED['body'])),
"FROM: $from

[PHP] SQL : multiple SELECT and missing rows.
Hello Guys, I have a (very simple?) SQL question. I'm more then sure the answer to it is whether "just do this..." or "It's impossible man, how could you even get that into your mind..." I have this database design: (it's more complex of course, but you get an idea) Table 'accounts': +---+--++ | ID| type | since | +---+--++ | 1 | P| 1999-08-01 | | 2 | F| 1999-11-06 | | 3 | S| 2000-07-05 | | 4 | P| 2001-01-01 | +---+--++ Table 'addresses': +---+--+--+-+ | ID| city | pref | country | +---+--+--+-+ | 1 | Shibuya-ku | 13 | JP | | 2 | Nakano-ku| 13 | JP | | 4 | Toyonaka-shi | 27 | JP | +---+--+--+-+ As you can see, the main data is in 'accounts', the 'addresses.ID' is UNIQUE and corresponds to 'accounts.ID'. The fact is that not every account has an address registered with it. I need to list ALL the accounts in this order: +---+--+-++---+ | ID | Type | City | Country | Since | +---+--+-++---+ Therefore I am trying to do it with the following query: SELECT accounts.ID AS ID, accounts.type AS Type, addresses.city AS City, addresses.country AS Country, accounts.since AS Since FROM accounts, addresses WHERE addresses.ID=accounts.ID ORDER BY accounts.ID ASC LIMIT 10 ; And, this selects me IDs 1, 2 and 4. 3, obviously, is not here because there's no such address.ID as stated in my WHERE clause. Can anyone suggest me how do I SELECT ALL of the accounts having simply NULL on 'addresses.*' when there's no such row, instead of 'loosing' the whole 'account' row? I sure know how to do it using two queries, still, I wonder if one single query can do this job. Where do I miss the logic?

I guess I am gonna have to plead stupid here. I've never used access, I don't like it, and I think there are much better tools out there to do what access does. We agree... Having said that, I work in an environment that is almost completely VBA in either access or excel. May god have mercy on your soul... I need to find a way to query an access database, and I wanted to do it with a auto_refresh web page. But I cant, I cant connect to the database, I cant execute a query, and maybe I return the infamous empty yet infinite array. maybe I should just do it in excel?

change header() into whatever you want to include at it's place.
Careful with this though, make sure that the files script is trying to
include do never get below a certain directory. Otherwise I can dispay
myself your /etc/passwd and you're freaked :-)

[PHP] Re: some kind of library loader
Arpad, as I read your mail one silly thing came into my mind: You can try to load all those classes as texts into a db and then to execute the needed ones as eval()ed strings. It could be easy for you to create the logic because the PHP code are stings and are never included but SELECTed. Not sure if this could be wise to do, just throwing out an idea. Maxim Maletsky Founder, Chief Developer PHPBeginner.com (Where PHP Begins) www.PHPBeginner.com maxim phpbeginner.com Arpad Tamas writes: Hi Everyone! I have an idea, but I don't know how to realise it, if it can be at all. We have a relatively big system, with 52k lines of php code without much html, and many classes (1138) that depend on each other. And I think I don't need to say that php parses the code somewhat slow. That's what I'm trying to solve. I know there are code caches, but none of them suits all of our customers or our needs (price, effectiveness). Of course not all classes are needed on every page request, so I'm trying to separate them, and require them when they are really needed, but that's not easy with 1100 classes. So I thought I'd write a custom error handler, and when an unloaded class is created or it's static method is accessed an error would be triggered and I'd require it in the error handler. The only problem is, that after the error handler finished the main code is executed *after* the statement that triggered the error, so I can't tell php to give one more try for the previously faulty code. Is there any chance for this to work with some trick, or do you know of a better sollution for the problem?

[PHP] Re: What's wrong with the Array? Im baffled!
it is obvious, Scott:
if ($sumItUp[$name] == ) {
is like to say if $sumItUp[$name] is an empty string. Means, that if it
was not assigned, or if it contains any kind of character in it this will
result to false.
Try using this:
if(isset($sumItUp[$name]) and strlen($sumItUp[$name])) {
}
this will mean:
if there's such variable defined and the lenght of what it contains is
bigger than 0 the statement will result TRUE.

Well, it's never too late to learn something new. So, here's the code and
see if you can help me out.

In this case, the if statement never went into else statement when
there's a number like 0, 1, 2, etc. So, what's the heck is happening here?
When the array, sumItUp[] was empty then the number 0 was assigned and
it work like a charm. So, when this code is repeated again, the if
statement check the array, sumItUp[] and found a number, 0 and it is not
equal to as shown in the if statement. So, therefore the else statement
should be executed. But in this case, it never did. I tested it myself to
make sure I wasn't missing something by putting in the php codes, echo
'**'; and the data, ** was never spitted out on the webpage. So, it tell
me that the else statment was never executed. So, the problem had to do
with the data in the array itself. So, can anyone help me out? Thanks a

[PHP] Re: Any ideas on combining arrays????
See, Scott.. It is all about your logic. For instance, you can create a nice multidimentional array like this: Array( '0'=Array( 'data'=Array( // your whole data array data data data ), 'parameters'=Array( // the settings rlative to data array 'count'='256', 'type_of_data'='strings', 'came_from_DB'='PostgreSQL', 'came_from_table'='thisTable' 'etc'='bla...bla..bla..' ) ), '1'=Array( 'data'=Array( // your whole data array data data data ), 'parameters'=Array( // the settings rlative to data array 'count'='258', 'type_of_data'='integers', 'came_from_DB'='mySQL', 'came_from_table'='thatTable' 'etc'='bla...bla..bla..' ) ), ... etcetc...etc... ); in this way you can loop the whole thing, access the data by refering to the 'data' subarray and then get the parameters (counts, types whatever you want) by accessing 'parameters' subarray containing the relative settings for that very array. As I said in the very first line - all up to your logic and the organization rules within the code. Hope it is of any help to you.

[PHP] Re: syntax for date math expressions
first of all your data seems to come from a DB to me. If it's so then read your DB manual for date functions. It would be way better and faster. Otherwise, if you're so keen to let this duty job up to PHP then convert both dates into UNIX time format 'maketime()' deduct the values and put them through the 'date()' function.

RE: [PHP] can't get it to work
Why not SELECT WHERE date_field$max_date and
date_field$min_date ?
A very god advice for everyone of you who tries to implement PHP for the
where selects:
You can VERY OFTEN leave this job to the DB itself. SQL don't only have
SELECT, UPDATE etc... they all have lots of functions for the data
comparisons and output formatting.
Take some time reading the manuals and you will discover a whole new
world on the RDBMS use.

Well, I don't thinik this will work. Because I will recieve an
unknown
number of data. The number of PH10 I would get would be either 1 or 2
or
126, etc. There is no way to determine the number, so I already
create
an
counter to tell me how many of them. So, that leave me with an need
to
create an array to unlimited number of PH10 without overwritting the
current
PH10. Here's my demo.
TU4R = TU4R is 0
PH10 = PH10 is 0
PH10 = PH10 is 1
PH10 = PH10 is 2
Can anyone write a multidimentional array demostration to handle
this
demo?
Thanks a Million!

See, Scott.. It is all about your logic.
For instance, you can create a nice multidimentional array like
this:
Array(
'0'=Array(
'data'=Array( // your whole data array
data
data
data
),
'parameters'=Array( // the settings rlative to data array
'count'='256',
'type_of_data'='strings',
'came_from_DB'='PostgreSQL',
'came_from_table'='thisTable'
'etc'='bla...bla..bla..'
)
),
'1'=Array(
'data'=Array( // your whole data array
data
data
data
),
'parameters'=Array( // the settings rlative to data array
'count'='258',
'type_of_data'='integers',
'came_from_DB'='mySQL',
'came_from_table'='thatTable'
'etc'='bla...bla..bla..'
)
),
... etcetc...etc...
);
in this way you can loop the whole thing, access the data by
refering
to
the
'data' subarray and then get the parameters (counts, types whatever
you
want) by accessing 'parameters' subarray containing the relative
settings
for that very array.
As I said in the very first line - all up to your logic and the
organization
rules within the code.
Hope it is of any help to you.

Yes, An idea I'd love to throw up here would be not letting the user know you're spying him: Make a Java Script function (yes, you will need JavaScript for that) that has timeout every 10 seconds. Use JS unction escape() and read the field values of your form assigning them to the JS variables after what, load a graphic with the JS vars passed in the IMG SRC link each 10 seconds passed. Your graphic will actually be a PHP script that records the data and does all kind of grows things, yet outputs just some silly image headers.

It could be easy for you to create the logic because the PHP code are stings and are never included but SELECTed. Not sure if this could be wise to do, just throwing out an idea. Offhand I'm guessing the payoff wouldn't be great, because you'd lose the benefit of PHP's own code caching. Depends on how much of this voluminous code actually gets used on any one run, I suppose. But why not do the same thing with conditional includes, and then at least let PHP cache it? Thanks for your suggestion Maxim and Miguel. Unfortunately storing code in db wouldn't solve my problem, becuse then I still had to recognise when the classes are really needed. Now in the 52k lines of code we just have $x = new SomeClass(); $y = new OtherClass(); or $result = AnotherClass::staticMethod(); statements, and we have many of them. That's why I'm searching for a sollution that we can use without rewrite all these calls with the extension of a test if the needed class's definition was or wasn't loaded before. So I'd like to use conditional includes, and my first thought was that somehow I can make it with a custom error handler, but unfortunately I realized quickly it's not that simple. Maybe you or someone can help, If I explain my problem in a little more detail. We have a portal-creator system (like many of you, I guess), with an own developed template system. Of course we sell it to customers who have their own needs. They create the designs, or tell us how the site should look, and the created templates determine what template classes are needed for generating the pages. The template classes require other base classes that are responsible for handling the db storage. We have about 430 classes (I misscalculated it in my firts mail), and they have many cross reference to each other. So it's hard to know explicitly if a class definition is needed, except of course at every new operator, and static method call, but there are plenty of them. Parsing of (almost) all of the php code takes about 1,5secs on an athlon 800 cpu, which is far from reasonable. I expect that with conditional includes at least half of the code wouldn't get parsed on a normal site, and even less on a smaller site. I wrote that I tried many code caches (I sent the results in deatils in December), but none of them - except Zend Cache - made significant speed-up (PHP-Accelerator also gave good results for speed, but I got many errors). Unfortunatelly Zend Cache isn't affordable for many of our client, especially the smaller ones, who don't need many of the features of the system, so they would benefit much from the conditional includes. I hope someone who had the same situation can help, or at least I get reinforcement, that I can't by-pass the hard way (to write an if clause before every use of a class wether it was loaded or not).

RE: [PHP] syntax for date math expressions
as a string. MySQL's TIMESTAMP is not the same thing as PHP's. Let me be the devil's layer here, Erik. In order to achieve the best portability and to gain the best performance you'd better use mySQL date field types to store the dates. If you need the PHP timestamps you can simply use another date function of mySQL (which was that?) on the SELECT and receive your data already in UNIX timestamp values. There's no way you can prove to me that PHP's timestamp is better in the mySQL's varchar(20) (20?? Why not 10 then and why not INT?

I rather agree here: * Beginner * Intermediate * Advanced will make it more sence.

Arpi Also, you can find out if a class was defined by calling 'class_exists()'. In this way you might save something. The best way thought is what Miguel was saying: load the files conditionally with a logic. That's what I'm trying to do, but still searching for the logic. But as I see, there's no better way of doing this other than checking if the needed classes are defined before every instantiation. Perhaps you can conjure up some sort of namespace scheme, and then use a global array to track which class files have been loaded, or which classes have been instantiated, or whatever it is you need to keep track of. In your file with a dependency: global $LOAD_STATUS; if (!$LOAD_STATUS['classes-db-queryops']) include 'lib/classes/db/queryops.php'; In lib/classes/db/queryops.php: global $LOAD_STATUS; $LOAD_STATUS['class-db-queryops'] = 1; Seems fairly cheap to do. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Thanks guys, this is just what I needed !
I'm just surprised that this does not seem to be really documented
anywhere. The only place where I could find this is in the Reserved
Keywords section of the manual, where __FILE__, __LINE__ , const
and
use do not have links to explanatory pages of their own.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.php
I've submitted a comment (user note) to this page in regard to
__FILE__
and would be happy if my comment or some version thereof is used as
the
doc page for this keyword (I guess I could set this up myself, I just
don't know how). However, wouldn't it make more sense if __FILE__ and
__LINE__ were in the Constants section rather than in Reserved
Keywords ?
Another note -- these two keywords are impossible (I think) to find
through a direct search because it strips the underscores, and the
search
returns some unrelated pages.

RE: [PHP] nl2br returns BR /? normality or a bug?
nl2br() has returned BR / for as long as I can remember.
You're deadly wrong, Justin. Years of coding and I have never seen this
behavior of nl2br(). Perhaps I missed its new behavior's introduction
(guilty as charged if so) but I only remember it returning me BR not
BR. I have several regex depending on it.
As far as my limited knowledge goes, it's to do with the future. XML
and
related languages do/will require all single tags (ie not something
like
B/B which has an open and close) to have the form BR/.
That's true, I suppose
This would apply to things like HR IMG and many others.
I have no idea why it places the space in, but I do know that i've
done a
LOT of testing and BR / works fine in every browser I've ever got my
hands
on.
False!
It DOES NOT work fine in every browser. I'd love to give you a prov, but
because I am lazy I will just tell you this formula:
if(I found this issue==I noticed screwed pages on my site) {
All I did: preg_replace(BR[^]*, BR, $text); {
...and pages became pretty again.
}

Of course, if you don't like it, you can add a str_replace in MANY
ways:
?
$text = nl2br($text);
$text = str_replace(BR /,BR,$text);
?
yup
So, to answer your Q, it's a normality. Sorry I can't provide a full
reason
why :)
when was it changed? Is there any reference?

I've triple-checked for what ANSI characters I had there. They were
fine. And as you can read below, there were the same as when nl2br
used
to return me br.
The problem has never occurred to me on any of the previous machines
site was hosted on. It does on this one though, with even the same
version of PHP and the same data from DB. I've noticed this problem
because I had a RegEx after nl2br() that always worked till we
migrated
on a new server, then my expression has obviously stopped to work
because of that extra space and slash nl2br kindly provided me with.
Temporarily fixed with another RegEx. But, I was wondering, is a
known
bug or it's because of my machine? Other than that nothing has
changed...
Enlighten me on this, please. Did I miss a bug report?

You're deadly wrong, Justin. Years of coding and I have never seen
this
behavior of nl2br(). Perhaps I missed its new behavior's
introduction
(guilty as charged if so) but I only remember it returning me BR

BR. I have several regex depending on it.
'Deadly' wrong? Wow.
Well, I've been at this PHP thing for 2 years, and like I said, for
as long
as *I* can remember, it's been BR /. Perhaps it was introduced
in PHP4,
perhaps earlier. I was not an in depth user of PHP3.
Justin is right on this one. This was changed on Dec 27, 2000. So it's
been around for quite a long time.
It was added because it's valid XML *and* valid HTML. It is true that
some browsers will not correctly interpret br/ (note the lack of a
space before the /) but everything I've ever tested has been just fine
with br /. As they should.
This has been discussed a zillion times on the mailing lists. Maxim,
you
could have found lots of background on the change by searching the
list
archives (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com) the bug database
(http://bugs.php.net) and the CVS repository (http://cvs.php.net).
Some
links which may explain things a bit better:
A thread on the topic:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-devm=99321596031773w=2
The CVS entry itself:
http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/php4/ext/standard/string.c?r1=1.176r2=1.177
Torben
But I can't be deadly wrong :)
False!
It DOES NOT work fine in every browser. I'd love to give you a
prov, but
because I am lazy I will just tell you this formula:
if(I found this issue==I noticed screwed pages on my site) {
All I did: preg_replace(BR[^]*, BR, $text); {
...and pages became pretty again.
}
}
/// preg 'couse I had no idea what comes up next :-)
Again. I was only stating MY experience. Every browser I can get
my hands
on. I do extensive testing, and have never seen a BR or BR/ or
BR /
misbehave.
If you have seen it perform unexpectedly, I'm keen to hear about.
In fact, if this is the case, then I'll be writing my own nl2br
function
which returns a br, to avoid this problem ever again.
Perhaps in future releases, nl2br() should have an option flag for
switching
between XHTML and HTML? I can't see why the powers that be would
have
included XHTML compliance if it wasn't backwards compatible.
when was it changed? Is there any reference?
I went to php.net/nl2br and this line of text was in there:
Note: Starting with PHP 4.0.5, nl2br() is now XHTML compliant. All
versions
before 4.0.5 will return string with 'br' inserted before newlines
instead
of 'br /'.
:)
So it would appear that I've only been using nl2br since I got my
hands on
PHP4.05+, which according to the earliest date I can find, was
released
sometime around 2001-04-30.

RE: [PHP] Manipulate the address field in the browser?
Use include(). Except, for the fact that, this will be: include(http://www.yourBB.com/bb.php?this=thatthat=is-not-this;); I don't know how are you going to manage the links though. You might want to write a client-server app to do that. Alternatively, you could simply put it in the frames. That would be WAY easier.

Is there anyway to trick the browser into displaying the client's domain rather than my own? I would want it to look as though you've never left their website when in fact you are now on mine. Possible? My domain name registrar uses a neat trick called stealth forwarding. It's probably explained in some tutorial on the web, so I won't speculate on how it's done, but the principle is this -- You have a web page hosted at a certain ISP... where the domain name is something like http://isp.com/~eprice/index.html But you just purchased a fancy domain name from an independent domain name registrar (not thru your ISP) and you want to point the new domain name to the old domain name. Unfortunately, the ISP didn't give you a dedicated IP address and they won't give you a virtual host, so you have no way to map your shiny new domain name to your web site. Stealth forwarding essentially makes the entire browser window into one giant new frame. The contents of the frame are http://isp.com/~eprice/index.html, but because the frameset is hosted by the indie domain name registrar, and they have your shiny new domain name mapped to a virtual host on their servers or something, it looks like (judging from the URL bar) a user is browsing http://shinynewdomainname.com, not http://isp.com/~eprice/index.html. The only problem is that (a) it relies on frames, so it might not work for all browsers (and definitely won't work for scripts), and (b) the URL never changes -- the domain name registrar is hosting the frameset, not the site, so all the URL bar ever shows is the name of the master frameset -- http://shinynewdomainname.com. My registrar is easyDNS, maybe they have information about how it's done if you can't find it elsewhere but I'd be surprised if you couldn't. Erik Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.

[PHP] PCRE - catching a caracter set in a negative class
Hi all,
I was scratching my head to accomplish the following perl regular
expression. It doesn't want to catch me [^\{php}]. From what I understood
reading the docs this is because in a negative class the caracters are being
taken litteraly one by one and not as a set. I tied to enclose them by () by
that didn't work eigher. What is the work around for this?
here's a sample code:
$text = '
some text ...
{php}
echo some funcy code to include he{re;
{/php}
more text
';
$out = preg_split(/(\{php}[^\{php}]*\{\/php})/i, $text, -1,
PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE);

RE: [PHP] Dealing with Query String
Once your query (whatever it is) was composed, append this:
order by $by $order;
so, in this example it could be looking to you something like this:
$query = 'bla bla language and page';
if(!$by) {
$by = 'name_field';
if(!$order)
$order = 'desc';
}
$query .= $by $order;
and that is your function. It will look for $by and $order variables
passed to it via GET and will add it to your query. If not passed any it
will use the default ones.
Just add these values to your links and that is it.
Obviously, the security there is up to you.

Privit Maxim,
I understand your approach... i.e. I can hardcode it in the links, but
what if I will add more variables in a query string... note in the
query
string there are variables that are not really related to the
operation
with the table, rather language ($lang=), page ($page=)... for now I
guess I will wind up doing it HARD-CODEed way...
Thanks,
Vlad
p.s. if anyone knows how to solve my problems, let me know... I think
the function that would be suitable is parse_str() less suitable
but
still doable would be explode()...
p.p.s. for MAXIM: I am doing it with languages switching as you can
see
on the top of the template.. I am using explode()

RE: [PHP] Including only I want
You can call for this include inside a function and then Return inside
included file.
Not sure if it's suitable for you, inside functions there are quite a
few extra things to do like Globals etc.
Or, you could fopen(), read the needed lines, assign to a variable and
eval() it. Quite a silly way though.

Best hope is to include some if statements into the included file, and
establish what you want to get out of the file, eg:
?
$section = a;
include('file.php');
?
--file.php--
?
if($section == a)
{

Or perhaps make the few lines you're after a function, then all you
have to
do is include your functions library on every page it's needed, and
then
call the function to do the selected lines/calculations, with a

domyfunction();
