[PHP] SDO DAS XML drops some elements
Hello, I try to generate a XML using an XSD with the library SDO DAS XML: http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.sdo-das-xml.php Most elements are working nicely, but others are just missing in XML. There where no warnings and no log entries. Where can I get some more debug information? Is there a more detailed tutorial somewhere? Are there any known bugs in that library?

[PHP] CMS plugin support
Hi! I have a bit of a vague question. I have always used different selfmade basic CMS for web pages. That works fine, and I like having my own structure and light code weight. But the big pro with using a standard CMS like drupal is the plugin support. Are there any php plugin standards or is there a doable way of implementing support for drupal (joomla, whatever) plugs? Of course there are php libraries, but I would like something more lika a visual gadget and extremly fast implementation. I created a wordpress blog instead of using my own code a while ago, and implementing twitter support, antispam, etc was just two clicks and 2 min work, instead of reading a manual for a library and maybe half an hour an hour work implementing and debugging. And that was a nice change. When you make normal simple web pages do you guys use a ready-made CMS as a base or do you have a self-made php template, or self-made cms, or what solutions do you use?

[PHP] Encrypt database table
Hi, What methods do you guys use to keep a mysql table encryped, or well atleast a major part of it. Security is very important and I want to use a public and private key. Is GPG the only safe way? It's hell of an overhead using GPG on every col, even a very short string is easily 1000 characters when encrypted in gpg. Best Regards Emil
[PHP] Search engines and cookies
Hi, Do you guys how search engines like cookies? One site I'm working on now requires the user to select which region he/she is from on the start page. That value is stored in a cookie. So without cookies you can't get past the start page. Does this leave the search engines at the start page? Right now google only index the start pages on my site and I'm trying to figure out why. If I can't use cookies, how would you force users to select a region but letting the search engine spiders in on the site somehow? Hope this wasn't too off topic.

[PHP] Verification number
Hi Sorry if this is considered off topic. Please ignore the post in that case. My site uses ten digit numbers as ID:s for our products. I would like the last digit to be a verification/check digit. I was just about to just make some simple function that would add the other values together into a one digit verification digit. But I thought maybe there are better or worse ways of doing this, since some algorithms probably produce a more even distribution of verification digits than others do. I.e. it would be a shame if I later on notice that half of my ID:s get 9 as verification. Any ideas?

[PHP] Re: Includes eating up my time
Consider using the __autoload() function in php. (also the SPL autoloading features). It's a way to tell php to load a file when it cannot find a definition for a CLASS (only for classes). I don't know how you have set-uped your project, but in mine the only place in the project where I use include is thie __autoload() function. In other words - php supports load-on-demand for classes. Check out http://php.net/__autoload Regards, Emil Ivanov Dave M G [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PHP general list, This is probably obvious to people who are good at PHP, but I'm I have a PHP based CMS (content management system) built, which has grown and become quite robust. It's now spread out over about 30 files, and each file represents one class within the object oriented design. Each are a couple hundred lines of code, and two or three of the most critical classes are over a thousand lines of code. While first building it, I didn't really anticipate quite that many files. What I did is have a file called includes.php, which list all the files to be included. Then I in turn included includes.php at the beginning of my index.php file. Every page request passes through the index.php file, so that basically means every single file is included at the start of every new page request. I'm using Zend Studio, which has a profile option, which shows how long it takes for my PHP scripts to complete a request. It has a breakdown showing percentages of which scripts are using that processing time. Currently, my processes are taking under a second, but they can be around half a second or more. Although it all happens too fast for me to really notice as a person, it seems to me that a half second of processing time might be kind of long and lead to scalability problems. My first question is: Is a half second too long? I'm pretty sure it is, but maybe I'm just being paranoid. What do people consider to be acceptable time frames for processing a web page similar to what Wikipedia delivers? Most of the time is taken with the includes. Anywhere from 60% to 90% of the time it takes to process my scripts is coming from the includes.php file. I read somewhere that it's not a good idea to have more than 10 includes in any one place. I'm fine with trying to break up my include requests, but I'm unsure as to how. As each function in each class passes around objects, it's not clear from looking at the code which ones are used at any one time, so I'm unsure how to efficiently include only the necessary classes. My second question is: Is there a systematic way of determining how to incrementally include files that people use? Or is it just a constant process of testing and checking?

Is this somehow possible? I guess I would use gd and maybe a transparent png to get the texture, or am I way off? The wrapping thing I have no clue how to make. Thanks for your time!

Re: [PHP] Texture and wrap
Hi Thanks, but what I meant with wrapping around a frame was this: http://www.proformat.se/gfx/pic_006_kilram.jpg Not just a normal frame around the image. Emil Emil: Yes, that can be done by simply merging images (i.e., watermark). For example: http://xn--ovg.com/watermark The texture image should be to some degree transparent and the frame simply larger OR be added via css. hth's tedd -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Texture and wrap
Hi again Sorry if I was unclear what I wanted was of course what Jon Anderson said. I wanted what was pictured in the image I posted (the look of wrapping a canvas over a frame) with some kind of fake or simple 3d rendering. The pear libs for doing it seems like what I was looking for, I hope it will look good and that it's fast/easy enough for me to implement. Thanks both of you. tedd wrote: Emil: To continue top posting. Dude, an image is an image. You're not wrapping anything -- you're just producing an image that looks a certain way. My first example did not just put a frame around an image, it merged two images. If I had wanted to put a frame around your image, I would have done this: http://xn--ovg.com/pframes Incidentally, styles #4 and #2 put a shadow around it, which could be expanded to mimic what I think you want. I suggest that you back up and re-read what I said. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Bar codes
Hi, I've never used bar codes before. And now I need to print out bar codes, and I've been told it should be in the format K39 Normal (I could have misunderstood since I can't find that on google. Maybe Code 39 Normal?). Any idea how to find that bar code font or what it's called? And what shall I use to print it out? Is it just as a regulat font, or do I need some special bar code lib?

[PHP] Secure input
Hi, What shall one do to avoid people that trys to manipulate my server? I mysql_real_escape_string() all input from GET and POST. A long time ago I think I used addslashes or something like that too, so people couldn't insert php code in their input. Is that still something I should do, or does mysql_real_escape_string() take care of that too? And is it even possible for a user to execute there own php code if I not output the input via the eval() function? When users input is displayed for others then themself I try to filter out html tags too. Anything else I should think of? Sorry if this has been asked a million times before.

[PHP] Cookies in non-frame sites
Hello, Most sites today seems to be based on this style: include(top); include(current_page); include(bottom); If one wants to set cookies from current_page, how should that be handled with as clean source as possible? Before I had the top and bottom output as functions that are called from each page, so I can call header stuff before it's executed. But it's not a very good looking approach. I did it like this in every page: include(top_bottom_lib); // cookie stuff echo getTopPage(); // page stuff echo getBottomPage(); I hope you understand my problem.

[PHP] Using GPG in Safe Mode
Hello, My ISP have php set for safe mode. And now I'm trying to run gpg from php.

Hi Edwin! Thanks for the tips but my ISP hasn't given me root. I'm very sad to hear gpg from cli won't work under safe mode. Are there any 100% php implementations of GPG I could use?

[PHP] mcrypt
Hello, Since I'm running php under safe mode and the gpglib extension is not installed in php at my isp gpg seems to be unavalible for me. Are there anything else I can use with public/private keys that is as safe/solid/hard to crack as gpg? The mcrypt extension is installed if that helps, or are all those crypts using the same key for encryption and decryption?

Re: [PHP] storing passwords in $_SESSION
Yet another unsafe way... You can try to write a program that reads stored cookies in Temporary Internet Files - it's peace of cake for somebody that is advanced programmer.

Re: [PHP] creating a shopping cart.
Hi! The best way is already presented in PHP manual: http://www.php.net/oop . In this example you create an object, which you can - naturaly pass over Session, etc. If you'll use OOP (Object-Oriented Programming), it is preffered in PHP5 to use OOP5 (OOP for PHP5). You can find details on http://www.php.net/oop5 . Emil NOVAK, Slovenia, EU -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Bar codes
Hello! Sorry if this is off topic. I'm making a php site where one can order a kit and now I would like to mark the kits with bar codes generated by the php script. I would also need some kind of bar code hardware reader and some way for a computer to read the result from the bar code reader, guess php might not work here so I might create some java application or whatever. I've never done anything like this before, do you know of any good starting points? I don't know anything about bar codes.

[PHP] Webmail and mime
Hi I'm creating a webmail interface for a pop3-server (I know weird to do webmail with pop3, but it's for a running server which I can't control. So pop3 it is and caching the mails in a mysql database). I've implemented the pop3-support myself since the one in www.php.net/imap lacks a lot of basic pop3 features like uidl support. Anyway I've hit a wall trying to add support for receiving attachments. I'm not sure how to handle it. The imap_fetchstructure call doesn't seem to be useful for me, since I can't send it text but only an imapstream. I tried the pear projects mimeDecode class and it worked fine. But the only thing it returns was the structure (like it will return an array with info like one mime part plain text, one part image, etc.) and not the content. I don't get the actual text and the actual image. Any ideas of how I can get the content split up in neat pieces? I've probably just missed something obvious in www.php.net/imap or the pear mail classes. Because I guess there are a function that does this. I need this running nw. So I'm sort of desperate. If you have any ideas at all please please speak. Thanks. Regards Emil -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] A compress function?
Hey
With all the wonderful String functions in PHP, I haven't been able to
find
a str_compress(). Is there such an animal? Let's say I have a string
like
this:
$myString = First_word 30 spaces second_word 10 spaces etc...
This would proberly work:
--
function str_compress($stString) {
if (substr_count($stString,' ') == 0) {
return $stString;
}
$stString = str_replace(' ',' ',$stString);
return str_compress($stString);
}
echo str_compress('dsfsd fdf sdf sdfd sf sf sdf
sf s fdsf sdfsdf sfsfsd sfs sf ');

ps. I admit that I dont know if there is a built in function.
