Re: [PHP] svg graphics and php : is it possible
Perhaps this relates to the original question as an additional feature. What would be the best way to offer SVG content from the main opening page?

[PHP] weird. iceweasel crash my laptop after i use costum sessions
i am using my laptop with PHP 4+ and mysql 5+, everything start to be weird after i implement my costume sessions (storing in database). i only use one database connection for the whole website. what i mean is, the session and every query connect to mysqlserver using the same user. I am not sure if it is because of the sessions. but it happen after i use costume sessions. if i make a SQL query with non existant column name eg: noe SELECT * FROM test WHERE noe=1; Suddenly, if i use top to monitor process on my laptop i saw the processor usage for the mysqld and firefox-bin(iceweasel) increasing. Icewasel will continue to consume processor usage to 100% and memory up to 80% all the time. Worst still, the mouse, keyboard do not work anymore. My laptop very-very slow until i cannot move my mouse cursor at all.. there is no way i can go except turn off the laptop power. I don't know what the problem is this. but, i think there is something to do with the sessions. And it related to PHP or may be problem with Iceweasel. I will try to ask debian mailing list for this. In case anyone experience the same thing. please let me know how you fix it.
[PHP] Hi. I need your help here
Hi. I came across your contact info at php.zend.com and was hoping you could help me out with this question. I recently installed Rubberwall10, a free software that protects from hotlinking and although I managed to installed the software correctly at my site, I came across the fact that when I tried to download an image from the site to my computer, the image came out with 0 kbs. Someone who also installed the software made a comment on the internet stating he solved the problem adding a trim function to three of the variables in the filescrapper.php file. My question to you is, how can I do that. I am not familiar with php, although I have understood some minimal basics. Adding trim function to $ct, $webaddress and $wantedfilename seemed to have solved the problem according to the user who solved the problem but did not specify how he did it. Can you tell me how I can add trim function to the above three variables?. Your help is greatly appreciated. The code is below. Thanks.

When the form is processed, you send a 303 redirect to the Thank you page. That way, if the user hits the back arrow, he's taken back to the form URL, not the post URL. (which would then warn him about re-submitting etc.) Ok, fine. But why do a real redirect when a header with 303 could be sufficient? If you model good enough, there would not be a need for header(location) redirects. Or am I wrong? What is your opinion about (ab)using rewrites / redirects? Do you use it quick and dirty, or is it some elegant way of controlling flow? I think there are plenty of perfectly valid reasons for using a redirect, whether dynamically from php or via an apache config. And undoubtedly there equally many poor reason for using redirect and/or rewrite. (they're very different things, by the way). I know they're different things. I only want to start a discussion so people do understand other techniques instead of just using whatever 'works' as a solution to their problem with flow. Redirects do solve some issues, but they should be avoided whenever possible. header(location) mechanisms do come with a very huge disadvantage if you don't use them with caution. Requests are reinitialised, libraries loaded (again), DB connections setup/checked again, session lookups are being done, log write for another request etc. That's quite an impact for just not knowing what to do with flow. So, if you know what you want to handle (control) and what you want the user to see (view), one should be able to model it without the use of redirects unless it really is needed. Or is it OK, to redirect and 'simplify' the flow? -- Aschwin Wesselius /'What you would like to be done to you, do that to the other'/ i am sorry.. but i don't get what u really want to say. honestly, i don't see any other way (better alternative) to avoid people to simply refresh the browser to submit the form many time. Requests are reinitialised, libraries loaded (again), DB connections setup/checked again, session lookups are being done, log write for another request etc. i don't see anything wrong with this since that is the way it is. whether you redirect or not, the script will do DB connection, session lookup anyway. i simply called exit; to stop execution after the header redirect.. sorry.. if i misunderstand your point. but that is just my opinion..

[PHP] dynamic boxes problem... JS and PHP
Hey everyone, A bit of a puzzle here, dont know if this is a JS problem or PHP or FF or just me. (My money is on the last one :p ) Here's what I am trying to do: In a form I have a listbox with the values 1-5, and under the listbox i have a TD with the id of recips (like so: TD id='recips I have a onChange event linked to the list box and depending on what number the client picks it should dynamically put the number of text boxes there, here is the JS code: / ### Start JS code function change_no_of_recipients() { var nr=document.mainform.no_of_friends.options[document.mainform.no_of_friends.selectedIndex].value; if(nr5){nr=5;} // max number of recipients var msg = ; for (var x = 1; x = nr; x++) { msg += 'table width=50% border=0 cellspacing=2 cellpadding=2' + 'tr' + 'td nowrap=nowrap'+ x +'. Recipient\'s name:/td' + 'tdinput type=text name=rec_name[] id=rec_name[] //td' + 'td nowrap=nowrapRecipient\'s email:/td' + 'tdinput type=text name=rec_email[] id=rec_email[] //td' + '/tr' + 'tr' + '/table'; } document.getElementById('recips').innerHTML=msg; } / # End JS code So far on the page everything is working, but when I click the submit button this is my PHP processing script: ?php print_r($_REQUEST); ? It shows me everything that has been submitted but NOT any of the above dynamically made boxes values... but get this, it DOES show me all values... in IE7 _not_ in FF (am using 2.0.0.13) Anybody else face anything like this?

I would think you'd want to use $_POST to receive the incoming values from a form. $_REQUEST should work in this case (i think) as it works kind of like a catch all While $_POST just catches POST and $_GET just catches GET... $_REQUEST catches all requests be it get,post,cookie etc for testing I always use $_REQUEST. Andrew: Thanks for replying! I think in this case $_REQUEST and $_POST should both get you what you want. I'm wondering whether your javascript is inserting the form fields within the correct FORM/FORM tags. Yep, it is correct, further down I will post the URL so you can check it out if you want. Also, FWIW, I doubt it has anything to do with your problem but you are assigning the same value for ID each time through the loop. The ID attribute is supposed to be unique for each element on the page. Tried changing it, no luck. Pete F: Thanks for replying! 1. Check that the Javascript is doing what you expect: you *are* using Firebug on Firefox, aren't you? Also the WebDeveloper toolbar plugin is useful - it has a View Generated Source tool which will show you what Firefox thinks your page actually looks like after the JS has run... Dont have either of them dont know how to use them actually, but will have a look after this email. I did hear of firebug though not the other one. 2. Check that the TD you are loading with content is actually inside the FORM tags - otherwise the inputs won't be included in the request/post variables... Yep, checked that. IE is getting it... FF is not. Which is really strange as IE is usually the bit*h that usually throws weird errors and results. Daniel, Thanks for replying! Ryan, would it be possible for you to send an actual link to the page in question? You'll probably wind up with some better feedback with a real-world test in this particular case. Didnt want to bloat my post and take up extra time from the people who reply, but looks like posting links is the best option so will do: http://www.coinpass.com/test/step2.php (to run the script) http://www.coinpass.com/test/step2.phps (View the source, its just a html file really) All Javascript and CSS is in the http://www.coinpass.com/test/scripts/; directory The processing script just has print_r($_REQUEST); so its useless pointing you to the actual file source.

The ID attribute is supposed to be unique for each element on the page. Tried changing it, no luck. I didn't expect it to fix anything related to the problem you posted, but it is something that should be fixed. I looked at the HTML source (since I think that's where your problem is). The problem is that you have FORM tags nested inside your table between two rows: /trform action=process_ecard1.php method=post name=mainform tr While your nesting is correct insofar as making sure that your FORM, TABLE, TR and TD tags don't cross each other, the FORM tag can't be there. I see why you've done it that way - you have another form nested inside a cell within the same table (you can't nest one form within another), and your second form needs to span more than one cell or row. You need to rethink your page flow and layout so that it uses valid HTML structure. I don't know if you can combine both forms into one or if you need to split the table apart. FWIW, while validating the above solution I found an extra (empty and unclosed) TR tag inside the recipient table which prompted me to run your HTML through the W3C validator. It found 19 errors that keep it from validating as XHTML strict as specified in your DOCTYPE. Most of these won't cause major problems, but the 6th error reported is the cause of the problem you're having: document type does not allow element 'form' here.

Re: [PHP] dynamic boxes problem... JS and PHP
Hey Bill, Thanks for the tips, makes sense and will try to follow them. Cheers! R * Ryan, Four observations: 1. Don't try to solve your problem by changing the DOCTYPE. Bad HTML is bad HTML. Changing the DOCTYPE may reduce the severity of the problem, but it won't solve it. 2. You have interpreted the fact that IE gave you what you expected while FF did not as a problem with FF, but the opposite is true. A problem with IE allowed it to accept HTML that it should not have accepted. FF treated it properly. 3. Firebug is a free download from Mozilla. I have it and it has solved more problems for me than I can remember. (Or, maybe I just don't have a very good memory.) Get it. You will see your form... tags inside the table /table tags, but not inside any td.../td tags. 4. Learn to use the W3C Markup Validation service - http://validator.w3.org/. It will point out many problems that you can solve quickly. -= Bill =- -- Murphy's Law Cardinal Conundrum - The optimist believes we live in the best of all possible worlds.

[PHP] Xampp question, pretty much 0T
Hello! I have been using XAMPP for quite some time now (thanks to the recommendations from this list) without any real complaints... and the only reason I am writing here is because i am sure a lot of you guys run the same thing considering the amount of people who recommended it to me when I asked for an easy install of AMP. It was easy to install and has given me months of hassle free use... but today i have started facing some strange problems of everytime I start Apache... it crashes my laptop, anybody else run into this? I use this only for PHP, no perl. My config: Win Vista home premium with all updates and patches (genuine, not pirate copy) core2 duo 2ghz 2 gigs ram Nothing installed today for it to be acting up so. Do you suggest I reinstall? or can I just reinstall Apache in some way? If i have to reinstall is there an easy way of backing up my stuff and then reinstalling then putting my stuff back? (I know i can just copy the files that were in the htdocs... but am talking about an easy way to copy the files and the DBs and put them back... or is that just wishful thinking?

Re: [PHP] Xampp question, pretty much 0T
clip After reading a bit I see that if I just copy the data directory in the mySql directory, I can restore it from there? any idea if I have that wrong? Hmm I guess, but I'd take the safer road and open a console and run: mysqldump.exe -u username -p --all-databases --add-drop-database --opt mysql.database.dump so you have an sql file you can restore if necessary. Adjust paths/files/usernames/passwords as necessary. /clip Hey! Thanks for replying. I decided to try something else while waiting for a response (still nothing from the main XAMPP forums though) and this is what worked for me, am posting it here so maybe it will help someone else in future (via the archives) facing the same problems that I faced , I dont know if this is a temp fix, I dont think so and it works perfectly for now. Downloaded XAMPP again, installed it in c:/xampp2 (original version was in c:/xampp) copied over all the files needed from the htdocs to c:/xampp2's htdocs in the MySql folder, go into the data folder and just copy the files with the DB names that you created, leave all other files alone, paste these files into the c:/xampp2/mysql/data folder... do not overwrite anything, and if you have done this correctly you should _not_ get the overwrite prompt Go to xampp's security page and redo the security including putting the password for root.. I am a bit of a paranoid dude, so i did a complete backup of all myfiles in htdocs and the mySql data folder and burnt it to DVD, you might consider doing thesame...just in case. Thats it! Remember to edit the paths in your scripts for those that need it from xampp to xampp2. A slight hassle, but not one that cant be done in 3-10 mins including copy time.

Re: [PHP] 0T - Request for quick test
Hey Daniel B, Steve H and Thiago P, Thanks for replying! My cuz couldnt upload from her browser, thats why i requested this... wanted a upload with progress bar but this was the best simple one i could find which unfortunatly didnt have a progress bar but was free and OS. Looks like it worked, Ryan. One suggestion, though: instead of the button next to the green arrow Had a problem with something conflicting with Javascript's form submit(), and since i am using quite a lot of OS free scripts from other people and wrote more JS here myself than on any other project that comes to mind AND i am no JS guru... thought i would just work around that instead of confronting it head on. clip Your JS for email verification is annoying :P Type something in email address field and then go to next field, and then press shift+tab or alt+tab and see it going nuts :) /clip Hehe! I see what you mean... you're like a little gremlin to catch that LOL! I am actually checking server side again if the user has entered the correct values, but the reason i put it there was just as a reminder because a lot of people are used to just entering their email once... do you think its over kill and i should just do it server side? Its quite easy to bypass the JS code if you REALLY wanted to do it... and if you do you will see that the script gives you a error box and shows you the form again... Thanks for the suggestions, am still open to any more you might have Cheers!
