RE: [PHP] Which is better coding style...
Definitely the second style :) (If we were talking about C(++) then the first would have even been forbidden by my companies coding standard as well as several coding standards of other companies I worked for.) The reason is this - a function has one entrypoint (duh) and one exitpoint. Jumping out of a function somewhere in the middle leads to unmaintainable code, and bugs when extending that function and that return is overlooked. But, as with the indenting and bracket placing, it is a matter of religion. They would have to torture me for three weeks to get me to place the brackets like you did in your example :) function blah() { $retval = ""; switch( $bob ) { case 1: $retval = "this"; break; case 2: $retval = "that"; break; default: $retval = "other"; break; } return $retval; } -Original Message- From: ..s.c.o.t.t..

RE: [PHP] What's XML's Purpose??
XML, IMHO, can best be regarded as a layer between the real data and the application. We used to make up new formats for allmost every type of data exchange. Every type had its own format, its own parser, and because of that the same mistakes were made over and over again. Some formats weren't extensible. Parsers contain(ed) bugs. XML solves all this. If your data is suitable to be encapsulated in xml (meaning its not binary data and a little tag-overhead isn't a big deal) there is no need for these mistakes anymore. You can use a trusted, standard format, which is extensible and readable, and you can use standard tools to read and write the data. (no more, or at least less, bugs in parsers.) -S -- 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]
RE: [PHP] Forcing htaccess login again
The request for a password is usually generated by a 401 header. Just do this - Header("WWW-authenticate: basic realm=\"Some realm\""); Header("HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized"); exit; That should pop up a box. Just make sure you check the values of $PHP_AUTH_USER/PW first before presenting those headers. This is more of an http question then it is a php question, I strongly advise you to read and understand the HTTP/1.1 rfc - it can be found at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2616.html (See chapter 10.4.2 for the documentation of the 401 header) Regards, Sander -Original Message- From: Chris Aitken [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 27 February 2001 00:12 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Forcing htaccess login again Now im even getting more confused. Ive been doing some more research into the subject, and cant seem to find any answers. All of the PHP documentation about headers() talks about auth via PHP, but doesnt mention anything about htaccess as the auth system. On my main.php screen, this is where the cookie gets set once the user logs in with htaccess. What im trying to do is incorporate a section into (possibly) main.php which forces the htaccess to rerequest login again using my .htpasswd password file as the criteria. Is there some sort of header information which will make the webserver turn around and say. "Hey, you shouldnt be here anymore, login again and I might think about letting you in" Because once I can get the user logging in again, it will go to the rest of main.php and unset/reset the cookie with the new user.

RE: [PHP] Zend hit (Encoder price)
Hello, What do you think about Zend position? http://php.weblogs.com/ http://zend.com/phorum/read.php?num=3id=6277loc=0thread=6277 I think that if Zend wants to sell it for $6000, then they have all right to. These guys have worked hard, and they deserve some cash for it. If people can't afford it at $6000, then that's their problem. Software is intellectual property, it shouldn't be free, and authors should be able to charge any price for it they want to charge for it. But, I don't think it's a wise decision to sell it at $6000, personally I think I would sell it between $1000 and $4000, but that's just me. ($6000 is a bit on the high side, considering what alternatives one haves for that price, and considering that anyone who paid $1000 a year back (I recall something about 'sponsoring') gets it all.) -S -- 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]
RE: [PHP] RE: url hide
Perhaps not related to php but I was wandering, is it possible to hide site's real url and replace it with something else (some other URL). ie. someone clicks on a link on www.blah.co.uk which takes the user to an designated area (ie. /house-search/) on www.foo.co.uk. I want the user still to see www.blah.co.uk. This is just for aesthetic reasons since ones the user finishes the search for houses (on www.foo.co.uk/house-search/) he/she will return to www.blah.co.uk. I have tried www.javascripts.com but no success?? you can use frame for doing this. for advanced people still can see the url but not newbie It just makes me wonder how 'advanced' you need to be to right click and select 'view properties'. (Or a similar simple action when using netrape) A frame also has some drawbacks, most important one being that a user, wherever he is on your site, always bookmarks the frame. It's something that would piss me off :) (Making me work, right click to find the real url I want to bookmakr, etc.) DHTML can do something like you want, but its complicated and not standard. (You can load the contents of URL A in a hidden frame, then replace the contents of the current document with the contents of the hidden frame.) Just forget about the whole idea already, each individual page should have an unique url, and that's the way it's supposed to be. -Sander -- 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]
RE: [PHP] Dynamic 'left menu's' on site: Like a windows explorer system???
Hi, I need to change my static left menu's into more dynamic ones, like when you click one title of the menu, it shows it sub menu etc. Any body knows if that can be achieved using PHP? Or should i repel on other techniques? If someone did make similar stuff, could you please send me an example or some good ideas? Thanks a lot in advance Yoeri. Such dynamic (no-reload) behaviour can only be achieved in a client side-solution.
