[PHP] Variables via url
Can someone point me at examples or directions on how I can pass a variable via a URL in the following way: http://server.domain.com//script///variable/ I will only be passing one single /variable/. And I want the /script/ to use that. I don't want to see what the script is, for example I don't want it to say 'script.php' or 'script.html' ... Is this possible through PHP only, or do I have to write a rewrite directive in Apache to accomplish this?
[PHP] Extracting data from exec() call
I'm trying to extract data coming from an exec() call. The exec()
call is performing an ncdump on a netCDF file:

$filename = mlab.20110101.cdf;
exec(/usr/bin/ncdump -l 2048 -v wmax .$filename, $output);
echo ---\n;
print_r($output);
echo ---\n;

ncdump doesn't provide an option to suppress the header
information, and as you can hopefully tell, the data I'm looking for is
in one long string at key position 26.
How can I extract what I need from that (wmax) and have it as an
array: wmax = array(5, 5, ...)
This is only one variable. I will be pulling more variables out,
and they all come out the same way as above, as strings. The headers
might change, so I can't simply say ignore the first 0-25 keys and
expect what I need to be at position 26. I need a reliable way of
detecting where the data section starts. And I need to convert the
strings into arrays for each data set.
Suggestions?

Yeah, error checking ...
Can't search for '/^ wmax $/' because it just returns nothing.
Dropping the '$' at the end works.
The array_shift() also drops the first variable because the
explode() call breaks it up as:
wmax = 5, 5, 5.4 ... etc. First value = 'wmax = 5'
And the explode also fails because data is not in $array[0], it's
in $array[30]. Inserting an array_values() to reindex helps.
So as of right now, I'm looking at:
if ($array = preg_grep('/^ wmax = /', $output)) {
$array = array_values($array);
$wmax = explode(', ', $array[0]);
}
array_shift($wmax);
print_r($wmax);
The array_shift() call needs to shift out the 'wmax = ', but leave
the first value.
And, I still need to convert the whole thing into '$wmax = {5, 5,
5.4, ...}'. Right now it's an array of strings:
Array
(
[0] = wmax = 5
[1] = 5
[2] = 5
[3] = 5.4

[PHP] Check for open file
Is there a clean or reliable way of checking to see if a file is still being written to before doing anything with it? Here's the scenario: we have a Samba share that we can copy files to (from within Windows or Macs). The server picks up the file and does some processing of said file. At the moment this is all a manual process: we copy a file into the Samba share, wait for that to finish then go to a web page (on the server) and tell it to process the file that was just copied into the Samba share. I'm trying to see if there is a way to automate this where a file, or multiple files, get copied into the share and the server picks them up and process automatically without needing any interaction. Can PHP detect this, or should I look into some delayed process of checking the file's modified time stamp versus current time and not touch the file till a certain threshold has been reached (say 30 seconds difference?). Ideas, suggestions, comments .
RE: [PHP] Check for open file
Write the file with a temporary name and extension. Once the file is closed, change the name to the pattern your server is looking for. Once you finish processing it, either change the name again, or move it to a different directory. Don't reuse the same file name, but add a numeric value which increases every time you create it. Keep a log of which files have been processed and any errors each one produced. Bob McConnell I can't require nor expect those copying the files into the share folder to do this. No, they will simply be grabbing a set of image files from one network share and drag them into this Samba share, as is. I'm not worried with what happens when PHP picks it up (name changes, moving to a diff folder, etc., etc.) I'm only concerned with the first step ... picking up the file only *after* it's done copying. I can run PHP as a timed crontask, but I need to figure out a safe way for it to either grab a file or leave it alone because it's not done yet. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] Google Visualization Chart API
So. Easy peasy. Not exactly. Those examples are not from the Visualization API - it's two different things. The API is written so that one does not have to generate those parameters individually and then pass them through POST/GET to Google. It's cleaner and faster to work with. The code for the Visualization API is very different from the code the regular Chart API uses. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Printing in columns
I need some guidance here. I've been fighting with this problem for a few days now and not having a whole lot of luck. I have some, but I run into issues sooner or later. So I'm hoping that someone here can give me some ideas of how to better approach this, perhaps help with coding as well. My data consists of a number of addresses in any number of US states. I need to format them as such: - have a title that consists of the state name, spanning the full width of a - have all the addresses pertaining to that specific state split into two columns and displayed below. - output everything to Letter size PDF. In very simple form, it looks something like this (hoping this doesn't get mangled in formatting): +---+ | STATE NAME | +---+ | Address 1 | Address 5 | | Address 2 | Address 6 | | Address 3 | Address 7 | | Address 4 | | +---+ So far what I've been able to get done is so the data sorting and matching up the addresses with their states. I can format the address the way I want them displayed and all. All the way to where I start outputting the data. However . I have to account for page length so that my data doesn't run past the page. I have to account for the possibility that the current state being processed will have some lines on one page and some more on the next page . which is fine, but when that happens, I want the title repeated on the next page like so: STATE NAME (Cont.) So here's how far I got: - grab data from CSV file - process/sort data - loop through data, line by line, inserting same state addresses into an array() - when I encounter a new state, I move to output the current contents of the array() - when it's time to output the array, I do: - array_chunk($array, ceil(count($array)/2)) - output chunks into respective column The problem I have is when I reach the bottom of the page while printing the first chunk. Let's say I have 120 records to print, and I only have room for 23 lines. So initially the array gets split into two chunks of 60 records each. I start outputting data. I reach the end of the document and still have 37 lines left, so now what? Right now I'm thinking I need to take that remaining data, merge it with the second chunk and start outputting that into the second column till I reach the bottom of the page again (which would be 23 lines later.) At that point I will still have 74 record left (14 PLUS the initial 60 lines that was the original 2nd chunk.) I start a new page, add the same state name title, and go through the motions again of rechunking the remaining data and outputting again. Does any of that even make sense? Am I going on about it the right way? Is there a better way to do this to begin with?
[PHP] MySQL select matching
I may be going at this completely wrong but at the moment I'm stuck. I have a DB from a client and need to do several searches on it. This one sentence is important because it's their DB, not mine. So I can't modify the way the DB was created in the first place, I can only work with what I have. And, whatever the solution to this might be, it does NOT have to be strictly MySQL, it can also be a PHP solution (which is why I'm sending it there as well.) So, having said that, consider the following table: +---+-+-+---+ | 1 | 123 | 0.0 | C | | 1 | 234 | 0.1 | D | | 1 | 345 | 0.0 | D | | 1 | 456 | 0.1 | C | | 1 | 567 | 0.1 | G | | 2 | 123 | 0.0 | C | | 2 | 234 | 0.1 | D | | 2 | 345 | 0.0 | D | | 3 | 234 | 0.1 | D | | 3 | 345 | 0.0 | D | | 3 | 123 | 0.0 | C | | 3 | 456 | 0.1 | C | | 3 | 567 | 0.1 | G | | 4 | 123 | 0.0 | C | | 4 | 234 | 0.1 | D | | 4 | 345 | 0.0 | D | +---+-+-+---+ mysql select * from table where id='1'; +---+-+-+---+ | 1 | 123 | 0.0 | C | | 1 | 234 | 0.1 | D | | 1 | 345 | 0.0 | D | | 1 | 456 | 0.1 | C | | 1 | 567 | 0.1 | G | +---+-+-+---+ Now, I have to find other IDs that match the above result. In the table, that would be ID '3' (and in the entire DB, there may be others as well - I need to find all those IDs.) But, notice how ID 0003 isn't in the same order as ID 1, but the data is still the same. So how do I efficiently search through the DB to find other IDs that matches the one I need? I can't imagine doing a for loop selecting each ID and comparing their result to the one I'm starting with. If the DB contains thousands upon thousands of rows, that might take a very long time.

Slightly OT, but I can't think of a better forum to ask this in. I'm sure a lot of us here have at some point or another built a system that requires registration to gain access. What I'm trying to figure is how to set different levels of access. We're building a large site for a school district, to be used by both students and parents. When a student logs in, they gain some access to the site, and when a parent logs in, they gain access to other sections on the site. That's all fine and dandy, it's the actual registration process that I'm having a hard time with. How to determine if a registration is a student or a parent. Do I simply give them a check box (or other method) to pick from (student or parent) and hope they're being honest? Has anyone here have to deal with that in the past, and would you be willing to give me some ideas of what you did? Thanks!

Consider the scenario where you are making a school district site for students and parents, and you slipped up and gave access to kids details to anybody who claimed to be a parent - I think in that scenario you'd really appreciate the gentle nudge - and we, many of us parents, wouldn't want the possibility of a hurt (or worse) child due to not speaking up ;) While I can appreciate that, this isn't the case here. This isn't sensitive information being broadcasted here. It's simply a matter of figuring out who's registering for what. Kids would be registering for a photo contest, parents will be registering for something completely different. So what if a student registers on the wrong side of the wall? Nothing happens there other than not having the ability to participate in the photo contest because it won't be available to them. And they can't *see* anything that the parents have done either, those are all contained within each specific account.

I'm asking about the specifics for a registration mechanism, NOT whether I should share information, nor what kind of information is being shared. This is a public school district, and we DO allow public registrations on our campus, because not all schools fall under our central system, and because parents want information. I'm simply inquiring from others if anyone has thought this through and come up with some way of determining who's who when they register, and I hate to say it, but so far the only person that actually answered my question with ideas was you, Nathan.

It would be rather easy to determine a student, they're all common login formats. Staff e-mails are different yet, as are others.

I can certainly ask for a student ID (and verify that on the backend), but again, parents also know their student's IDs. They also know what year. Teacher won't have any bearing here because there is no such thing as a 'home room' at the level we're working at. I'm not so much worried about a parent registering on the wrong side of the wall ... the access would be even less anyway. And while a student registering on the wrong side simply won't give them access to the contest, there is also no reason for them to be there.

Kirchner Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Re: Need login suggestions I would also agree that allowing parent registration could be risky. What you may be able to do just off the top is create a UserLevel field in your users table and assign value 1 for all those who say they're students. That is, if you have no student ids at your disposal. Then, when parents register, you can ask who their kid is, and assign a user level 2, for example. When a parent finishes their registration, don't allow them access. Display a message saying you'll have to call in to get your password or something similar. What you're essentially doing is identifying parents by their user level yet making sure parents are parents. Just an idea I thought I share. What you're suggesting, multi level access, is already in place. It's determined by whatever group a login falls in, student, staff, administrator, contractor, volunteer, parent, etc., etc. However, for what I'm doing, working with one of the departments, we don't have full access to the LDAP server to verify a login, nor can we expect someone registering for *transportation* is also registered in the main LDAP server. So things work separately. What we're doing has nothing at all to do with what's on the main server. No personal information is being shared or broadcasted. No student information, absolutely nothing. This is strictly a case of 'user A' versus 'user B' and figuring out a way to determine, through registration, what level of access they get. Is it based solely on the honor system, hoping that each user does the right thing when they register, or have people come up with some other kind of mechanism ... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I would just take some simple steps to ask the person if they want to view as a student or as a parent. Have you considered the option of just letting people register, and then allowing them to select a radio-button labelled Show me information important to parents or Show me information relevant to students or Show me information relevant to both. Some users might quite legitimately want to see both sets of content. Hmm, didn't think of that.

Each registration would *attempt* to register as a student, parent or whatever. Those attempted registrations would go into a wait queue. Meantime, emails would be sent to an administrator whose job is would be to bless those registrations. They would check to see if a potential registrant was what they claimed to be. You'd give them a page where the queued registration attempts would show up. And they would check the proper box for each potential registrant. Once done, the registration would be completed, and in the proper category. Yeah, that would fall on our shoulders. School administration won't do this. It comes back to the IT Department and we have to figure it out. The problem is, while we can bless student registrations, we can't always tell if the next one is a parent or not, or if it's a parent in our district. We do have another system in place, one in which we hand out 2 unique keys for each student at each school and parents pick those up. Internally those keys are matched to that student so we know who it is that's registering. However, that requires a lot of front work to get those keys out.

I believe there is a way to set up a cron or something like that where the check is made at the server level and no one else can check that way. That will only work for a rather small subset of students and parents. Unfortunately not all students in the district are actually in our main database. Those attending charter schools are not, so we can't verify them. And not all parents are actually registered in our main database. Like I mentioned, we don't assume everyone wants in on our systems, we let them come to us. So if they don't, we don't have them. (It's amazing how many don't care how their kids are doing in school.) For this project we're working on, we have parents and students who are not in our main DB wanting to be part of it. Manually, we can check who they are and do the verification that way. But, try doing that for several thousands of registrations and it gets old really fast.

[PHP] Updating HTML on page
I have a PHP script that queries a DB to get a list of image names. Then it processes each name and generate thumbnails and what not. What I want to do is have a page called (through the browser) which updates as the PHP process in the background is working. So when you first pull up the page it will say 'There are x images to process' and then dynamically update the page with a progress status. In its crudest form it should say something like 'Processing 1 of 5 images .' When that image is done, it should update the page with 2 of 5 . etc., etc. Ideally without refreshing the page each time. Is this where I need to figure out Ajax and incorporate it with PHP?

[PHP] preg_match? Or something else?
I have an array that's created as follows: $string = 73G146C 311- 309.1C; $arr = preg_split(/[\s]+/, $string); Now I need to take each element in that array, and break them up even further so that I get: 73G= 73 and G 146C = 146 and C 311- = 311 and - 309.1C = 309, 1, and C (notice 3 elements here) I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what the proper regex would be for this, or whether that's the right thing to do. So far I've gotten this: preg_match(/^(?Plocation\d+)(?Pletter[A-Z-])/, $item, $matches); print_r($matches); Which gives me: Array ( [0] = 73G [location] = 73 [1] = 73 [letter] = G [2] = G ) Array ( [0] = 146C [location] = 146 [1] = 146 [letter] = C [2] = C ) Array ( [0] = 311- [location] = 311 [1] = 311 [letter] = - [2] = - ) Array ( ) However that's as far as it goes. For the other number it returns an empty array and I know why, the decimal point. Now I can evaluate each $item every time, see if they contain a decimal point, and pass it to a different regex string, but that seems rather inefficient to me. So how can I do this all in one fell swoop? Anyone want to take a stab at it?
[PHP] ldap_bind() connectivity
Thanks to Jochem Mass for helping earlier to the string splitting. Works
great (so far). Now on to my next problem, which has to do with
ldap_bind().
I have the following code:
$ldapconn = @ldap_connect($adServer);
$ldapbind = ldap_bind($ldapconn, $ldapuser, $ldappass);
if ($ldapbind) {
/** Successful authentication **/
$_SESSION['username'] = $username;
$_SESSION['password'] = $password;
} else {
/** Authentication failure **/
$form-setError($field, laquo; Invalid username or password
raquo;);
}
ldap_unbind($ldapconn);
The problem with this is that if the ldap_bind() fails in the second line,
it instantly spits text out to the browser:
Warning: ldap_bind() [function.ldap-bind
http://www.smartroute.org/contest/include/function.ldap-bind ]: Unable to
bind to server: Invalid credentials in /home/contest/include/session.php on
line 351
And because it does that, it never reaches the if routine right below it and
everything just bombs. If I call it with @ldap_bind($ldapconn .) nothing
happens. The error message gets suppressed but it also doesn't do anything
with the if routine afterwards. It's almost like $ldapbind isn't getting
set at all.
What am I missing here?
[PHP] Splitting a string ...
I'm not a regexp person (wish I was though), and I'm hoping someone can give me a hand here. Consider the following strings: - domain\usern...@example.org - domain\username - the same as above but with / instead of \ (hey, it happens) - usern...@example.org - username Essentially I have a sign-up form where folks will be typing in their username. The problem is, in our organization, when you tell someone to enter their username, it could end up being any of the above examples because they're used to a domain log in procedure where in some cases they type the whole thing, in other cases just the e-mail, or sometimes just the username. So what I'd like is a way to capture just the 'username' part, regardless of what other pieces they put in. In the past I would write a rather inefficient split() routine and eventually get what I need. With split() getting deprecated, I figured I may as well start looking into how to do it properly. There's preg_split(), str_split(), explode() . possibly others. So, what's the proper way to do this? How can I capture just the part I need, regardless of how they typed it in? Thanks! A
[PHP] Connect to LDAP
Hi folks,
I've never done any PHP-LDAP code writing (nor have I ever dealt
with an LDAP server to begin with.) However I'm writing an app which
requires verifying a user's credentials against an LDAP server. The
admin of the server sent me the following snippet, however also made it
clear that he is not 100% whether it's accurate (he's not a PHP coder).
And I don't have remote access to the server (the app is going to sit on
the internal network and the LDAP server doesn't accept outside
connections.)
So, asking the wise folks on here, does the following piece look
semantically correct?
/* Check against LDAP server */
$adServer = server.address.hidden;
$ldapconn = ldap_connect($adServer) or die(Connection to the
AD server failed.);
$ldapuser = $_POST[uname];
$ldappass = $_POST[pword];
$ldapbind = ldap_bind($ldapconn, $ldapuser, $ldappass);
if ($ldapbind) {
$msg = User Authenticated Successfully!;
$_SESSION['username'] = $ldapuser;
$_SESSION['password'] = $ldappass;
return true;
} else {
$msg = Invalid username / password;
return false;
}
Thanks.

Re: [PHP] PEAR segfaulting
Well, it boiled down to zlib.so causing the segfault. As soon as I removed that module, everything worked. Recompiling just the zlib.so module yielded the same result: pear segfaults. So now the question is: is it zlib's fault, or is it pear? At this point I've accomplished what I needed, but it doesn't actually fix the problem: enabling zlib will cause pear to segfault. -- H | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented feature. + Ashley M.

[PHP] Database Question
Someone's going to tell me to go buy a book, I just know it. I'll ask anyway: I'm starting to log weather data to a database and I'm trying to figure out what's the best way to create the tables. The reports are coming in every minute, of every hour, 24 hours a day. Eventually, I'd like to do some calculations on the statistics, displaying daily values (which can be broken down to hourly), but then also daily and monthly averages. To me, it doesn't make sense to dump everything into one big table, but I can't figure out what's the best way to break it down either. Keep in mind that the only data I have, is what comes in for that minute. The daily averages I have to calculate myself (later.) But I can't see one large table being very effective when it comes to calculating that stuff. So, how should I break the tables down? Create a new table every day (20061219_data, 20061220_data, etc.) and insert all the values in it? Or, break it down per values (temp_table, humidity_table, etc.) and insert daily data in them? -- A -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Looping through array

Something like this perhaps...
$arr = array(...);
$per_row = 5;
$elem = count($arr);
for($i=0; $i$elem; $i++) {
if( $i == 0 )
echo tr;
else if( $i % $per_row == 0 )
echo /trtr;
echo td$arr[$i]/td;

That simply displays things in order, 1 through 5, then 6 through 10.

[PHP] Checking file existence
I have files that are named in the following manner: file..jpg (where is an hhmm timestamp [hour and minutes]) What's the best way to take the current hhmm timestamp and run backwards finding the previous 5 files, and checking whether they actually exist? There's a possibility one or more might not exist and rather than returning a blank value, I want to continue further back till I find the next. So for example, say I have: file 1122.jpg file 1121.jpg file 1119.jpg file 1117.jpg file 1116.jpg file 1114.jpg Notice the gaps, 1120, 1118, and 1115 are missing. But I still want to return five, thus 1122, 1121, 1119, 1117, and 1116. I thought of taking the current timestamp and loop five times, subtracting from it every time, but that's assuming all five are there. If one's missing then I only have four images. -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented feature. + Ashley M.

Re: [PHP] Checking file existence
Edward Kay wrote: Are all the files called file..jpg or could they have other names such as clouds.1123.jpg, field.2034.jpg etc? They are all the same exact file name with the only difference being the timestamp. Alternatively, you could get the OS to do the work through an exec call to something like 'ls *..jpg' or similar. The downside of this however is that it is then OS dependent. I thought of that too, but only because of the way the files are stored. I completely forgot about one other catch... I thought about it but my hands were too quick and I didn't type that paragraph in. The files are stored as follows on the file system: /.year/month/day/hour/file.hhmm.jpg (yes that dot preceding year is correct) So I can look right now and find /.2006/11/15/08/file.0846.jpg Each /hour/ folder contains at most 60 files so in essence doing either a scandir() or an exec call to ls wouldn't take that long. However, I run into problems when I need to traverse to the previous hour to find images. Say I load up a file with timestamp 0802. I now need to find 0801, 0800, 0759, 0758, and 0757. The last three being in the previous folder. Unless I run scandir() again the entire /day/ folder and sort, I'd have to figure out how to go on about that. Like I said, I completely forgot to write this piece of the puzzle in my previous e-mail. I blame it on the lack of caffeine. -- A -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented feature. + Ashley M.

Error fixed. Also, the other problem is that you are either a) opening the wrong path, b) the path you are opening has no files or directories. Neither of those assumptions is correct. Take note also that your variable is called $Dirs, but readdir() returns all directory contents (including files, links, etc, etc). I'm aware of what readdir() returns, and also aware that in my particular application, it makes no difference what so ever since there are only directories in there. If it also contained individual files, I would've named it different. Variable names are exactly that, variable names.

That would be correct. At the moment I'm checking with

But as I read up on empty() I realized that if one simply hits a
space and/or a return, empty() will fail.
off the top of my head, the functions strlen() and isset() come to mind.
Will look into them. Danke.

[PHP] previous + next buttons, no DB
I have a client that maintains picture galleries by simply dropping images into a directory. I have a template created that when loaded, with a specific $ID, will load the image that corresponds to that $ID. The request now is to have previous and next buttons that web surfers can click on to cycle through the rest of the images in the directory (instead of having to close that pop-up and click on another image to look at.) What's the best way to go about this? Since I don't have a list of images in any kind of array (such as a result from DB query), I'm a bit at a loss here. Obviously if someone clicks on the first image on the gallery page, it should only have a 'next' button, and if they click the last image, it should only have a 'previous' button, but anything else on the page should have a 'previous' and 'next' button. I just don't know how to keep that relationship or how to start coding that. Ideas/suggestions/pointers are much appreciated here. -- R | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere. + Ashley M.

Jeff Loiselle wrote: Ashley, How are you creating the gallery page? You must be reading the filenames in the directory and producing an img for each one. Can you create an array of those filenames, save it to session (or generate it each time), and iterate through them? Say the images are in a folder called /gallery/ Within that, I have an index.php that is manually coded to have thumbnails of the images displayed in a grid. Important to note: they're in a very specific (artistic) order. Each one of those thumbnails is linked to one and the same popup.php file that is simply another php file that expects an $ID passed to it. That $ID, which again is hard coded in index.html, tells popup.php which file to display. (that $ID is basically the file name of the image, so I can append it to the img / tag as the page loads. So you see, I have no array of anything. The index.html file gets manually edited every time something is added or removed. This is why I'd like a programmatic way of a) generating that file, so that the client can add/remove images as they see fit, and b) be able to have prev/next buttons on the popup window. Does that make sense? -- R | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere. + Ashley M.

[PHP] radio buttons in $_POST
I have this form.html: form method=post action=form.php text input input type=text name=input_testbr / radio input1 input type=radio name=radio_test value=test1 / radio input2 input type=radio name=radio_test value=test2 / input type=submit value=Submit /form Then I have this script (form.php): ?php foreach ($_POST as $key = $val) echo $key = $val\n; ? If I simply submit the form empty, all I get back from the script is the text input $key. The radio button doesn't show up. Why is that and how can I have it show up? (the radio input does show up once one of the radios is checked, but I need it to show up when empty as well.) -- H | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere. + Ashley M.

[PHP] Converting hexadecimal string

[PHP] multidimensional array sort
I have a multidimensional array that's built as follows (it's pretty
much a directory tree):
Array (
[Dir1] = Array (
[User1] = Array (
[0] = File1
[1] = File2
)
[User2] = Array {
[0] = File1
[1] = File2
[2] = File3
}
)
[Dir2] = Array (
[User1] = Array (
[0] = File1
[1] = File2
[2] = File3
[3] = File4
)
[User2] = Array {
[0] = File1
}
)
)
I need to do a sort on the whole thing in such a way that:
a) all the Dir#'s are in ascending order, and
b) all the User#'s are in ascending order with each Dir#, and
b) all the File#'s are also in ascending order within each User#
I don't suppose there's an easy way to do this, other than doing it
in several steps, is there? Is there even a way to JUST sort the Dir#'s
(and the rest gets done at a later stage in the script)?

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.array-multisort.php
I did go through that, but I can't get it to work and I'm almost
willing to bet it's because of the way the array is built. For example,
the example on that page says that I should be able to do a sort on
$ar[0] and $ar[1], however in my array both of those return 0. In fact,
when I do this:
echo items in array: . count($data) . br /;
for ($i = 0; $i count($data); $i++) {
echo data[$i]: . count($data[$i]) . br /;
}
I get:
items in array: 2
data[0]: 0
data[1]: 0
When I do a print_r($data), I get:
Array
(
[John] = Array
(
[KIRASH] = Array
(
[0] = 050311_18.00.59__KIRASH.zip
[1] = 050311_18.10.20__KIRASH.zip
)
[MCCROY] = Array
(
[0] = 050312_20.52.28__MCCROY.zip
)
)
[Ron] = Array
(
[EMBROR] = Array
(
[0] = 050314_15.47.56__EMBROR.zip
)
)
)
S, I'm at a loss here. I think I need to create the array
differently for it to work.
