It's called the scope of the variable. See
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php
Variables defined in a function are only available to the function where they
are defined.
Yes, but scope does not necessarily protect a value. Within a function globals
are out of scope, but their values can still be accessed through $GLOBALS.
Many languages have little-documented reflection features. I am concerned
about a determined person being capable of discovering the value of a variable
within a function that has already been defined. Is there a way to this? Is
there a way to examine the input buffer, or anything that has been read into
the interpreter so far? Certainly those values exist within the memory of the
process, which can be accessed through other methods.
I'd be very happy if anyone is able to say it is not possible to do this, and
explain why.

In general, I'd suggest creating page-specific style variations by
sticking a class on the body (e.g. body class=article ) and using
that as a hook to modify the styling of the class whose formatting you
want to be different.
.thing {

.article .thing {

[snip] But, not knowing how the various types of accessibility applications work, I am guessing that the layout to an application trying to read it should work fairly well. Let me know if I am way off the mark with my thoughts. The responses suggesting that even W3C would let you use tables for data tables are too weak. W3C recommend you use the best possible semantic (X)HTML for your structured content and, if you want to style it, suggest a skin or skins for that structure with CSS. This is why table is the wrong tool for grid layout and the /right/ tool for tabular data. This isn't semantics for the sake of semantics. Table markup implies a series of relationships that user agents can use in two basic ways: 1) Render content appropriately to communicate tabular relationships. For example, text browsers and browser/user stylesheets in GUI browsers can arrange tables in rows and columns, stick borders between cells, embolden/color header cells and captions, repeat header rows after a page break when printing. GUI browsers can copy table markup to system clipboards such that you can paste the table into a word processor or spreadsheet as a table. Screen readers can read or braille the table caption or summary when the table receives focus, and render an individual data cell's headers when it receives content focus. 2) Provide navigational functionality. For example, popular screen readers use table markup to give users commands to list tables on a page, jump to the next table, move to the next row rather than the next cell, query a cell for its headers, read row-by-row, or read column-by-column. For example: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Training/Surfs-Up/Tables.htm http://www.freedomscientific.com/Training/Surfs-up/Table_Reading_Commands.htm So replacing good data markup ( http://www.webaim.org/techniques/tables/ ) with a tree of div elements involves a substantial loss of functionality, and accessibility. If for some reason, you /must/ use generic div elements instead of real tabular markup, I strongly recommend you annotate them with WAI-ARIA attributes (grid and related roles). Supporting clients will expose similar structural information to assistive technology as you would get with (X)HTML tables. WAI-ARIA has poor support compared to bog-standard (X)HTML tables, but it should be supported by the some of the newest browsers and screen readers (e.g. Firefox 3, IE8, and JAWS 10). Calendar markup is a very tricky one. But I'd certainly take advantage of (X)HTML's dedicated markup for relationships ( tables, lists, headings, hyperlinks ) to help users navigate the calendar and to ensure a decent presentation (even without your CSS) is applied, rather than expect users to parse linearized div elements.

Do not use the headers, scope, axis, or summary attributes.

You are entirely correct that text browsers and screen readers do indeed use such algorithms, however. This is why it's more crucial to use data table markup for data tables than to avoid presentational table markup for grid layout.

Did you try the sources I already linked you to?
Surely I must be wrong but there must be a logical explanation why such
simple things as adiv id=some_thing will show the first of three
imgs as being part of the div tag and the rest not - but rather as
part ofbody.
If you put a box around the div tag, it includes the first image but not
the next two.
Putting 5 images of 98px width not only shows four in linewitht the
fifth is off by the margin-top height but also displays the images in a
reverse order. How do you explain that? And how do you get it to do what
you want?
Your description of these problems is far too vague to make any
suggestions. Try linking to minimal test cases that _show_ your code and
the problems it causes. But best address them to a dedicated CSS
discussion list, rather than a list dedicated to PHP.
http://webkit.org/quality/reduction.html might help you produce such
test cases.
And what about all the weird CSS configurations that are not documented
anywhere I could find in a reasonable time - where are the definitions
for form positioning and displaying?
Strictly, there are no conformance criteria for how CSS 2.1 properties
apply to (X)HTML form widgets, so this is up to user agents. For
discussions of the current state of affairs, please see:
* http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#conformance

* http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/15/formal-weirdness/
For practical advice on styling forms with CSS, please see (for example):
http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/34-styling-forms/
What do such definitions signify:
form div fieldset label.labelCheckbox, form div fieldset
label.labelRadio {...
and - form div input.inputText, form div input.inputPassword {...
This is elementary CSS syntax:
* http://penguin.theopalgroup.com/cgi-bin/css3explainer/selectoracle.py
* http://css.maxdesign.com.au/selectutorial/
* http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/selector.html
* http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/
I thought that form would be subservient to div or is it the opposite?
This question suggests you'd benefit from reading an introduction to CSS
selectors such as the maxdesign link above.
Again, I hope that helps.

Not in IE8. http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/11/19/ie8-what-s-after-beta-2.aspx#9129600 Everyone has their favorite unstandardized feature they'd love IE to support.

Experimental support for Canvas and other unstandardized features might be a good thing; I know the spec editors would welcome implementor feedback. It would be a shame, however, if we were locked into a technically poor solution thanks to the most popular browser implementing an early version of the specification, websites beginning to rely on that behaviour, and subsequent versions of the specification being forced to mandate such behaviour. I haven't used Canvas much, but it seems to me there a lot of areas of Canvas where there's room for further evolution, e.g. proper text width calculations? an accessible Canvas example? what about 3D? Is it as a direct result of Chrome being released and MS realising (finally) they are going to have to remain competitive? Given Chrome's poor rate of take-up and tendency to canibalize the userbases of non-MS browsers, I somewhat doubt it. http://blog.statcounter.com/2008/09/chrome-whos-losing/ Regardless of Chrome's technical merits, it seems to me that it's Firefox's growing userbase, tailed by the other popular browsers in some markets, that has long represented the market challenge to IE. http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat.htm Could be I'm underestimating the effects of press hype about chrome on MS's strategy, but I think actually Microsoft's turn towards a stronger emphasis on standards support long preceded the release of Chrome. For example: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/03/03/microsoft-s-interoperability-principles-and-ie8.aspx Given that IE8 was already in beta when Chrome was released, standard support in IE8 is mostly a product of decisions taken before that time. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] anyone have HTML snippet example of HTTP method = put?
mike wrote: I have this: form method=PUT action=work.php File: input type=file / input type=submit value=Submit / /form Looking in my webserver logs, it changes that to a GET. Ideas anyone? The receiver is PHP and I am pretty sure I know how to handle it once it is properly PUT-ted. (I run nginx for the server and have enabled PUT as a method, supposedly) Maybe I need to do something different on the web form though? I can appreciate why one might imagine otherwise, but XHTML 1.x forms only support GET and POST. GET and POST are the only allowed values for the method attribute. If you were validating your markup ( http://validator.w3.org/ ) you'd have caught that error; if you'd read the HTML documentation for the FORM element you wouldn't have made it in the first place: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.3 There are no conformance criteria in the HTML specification for how user agents should handle your error; it appears the client you were testing with submitted the form with the GET method instead. There are proposals to add PUT and DELETE to the supported methods in a future version of HTML. Hard to be sure, but judging from your markup, you might well be using the wrong HTTP method anyway. The action attribute specifies where the URL the form submits to. In the case of a PUT method, the server is supposed to replace the resource represented by that URL with the entity dispatched in the request: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html#sec9.6 So unless you're intending that, after submission, a GET request to work.php should return the uploaded file, you're using the wrong method. I suspect you want the POST method, where the server may do basically anything with the dispatched entity, such as taking an uploaded file and making it available at an arbitrary URL (like images/495005.jpg): http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html#sec9.5 I note in passing that if you're intending to use that markup in production, you should really enclose the text File: in a label element associated with the input element by having a for attribute matching an id attribute adding to the input. This will allow user agents to accurately associate the label with the file upload control, for example screen readers and voice browsers can speak or braille File: when the focus enters the control. For a detailed explanation, see: http://reference.sitepoint.com/html/label http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H44.html http://green-beast.com/blog/?p=254 http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.9 Hope that helps. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Your first mistake I'm finding is the use of quotes. You started the print
with a , which means the print ends at name=, and it's expecting more PHP
code, rather than a HTML string. The first fix would be to either escape all
quotes in the HTML with a slash (\) before it, or to change your opening and
closing quotes on the print to a single quote (').
Second, yes, you cannot enclose PHP tags inside PHP tags. To do this,
change that portion to end the print, attach the two portions with a period
(.) and start up with the php function, then a period, and back to the
print.
Here's a fix that should work. I haven't tested it though, so I may have
missed one or two quotes.
?php if ($emp_row-getField('testfield') !=) {
print form name=\edit\ method=\post\
action=\emp_edit_result2.php\
input type=\hidden\ name=\Status\ value=\Active\/
input type=\hidden\ name=\The_Date\ value=\\/

This should do exactly what you need, although you may want to see if either
one returns false (indicating an error) and stop the script.

libxml2-dir isn't an existing variable in the configuration script.

That's what's defined.

That's what your using.
Where is XML2_DIR coming from? Your path only shows XML_DIR being defined.

[PHP] Having resource variables over several scripts
Hey, I am trying to have e.g. a file opened over several scripts. When opening a file with fopen I receive a variable of the type resource (like Resource ID #3), but when I try to save this variable in the SESSION and try to use it on another page, I get a null variable. Because I need to have the same and exact resource (not opened every time I load a new page) and since it is apparently not possible to store it in a session, I wanted to ask if somebody had the same issue once, and maybe there is some help out there. Could I somehow serialize the resource, then give it to another page via GET or POST? I would really appreciate if somebody has some hints...

I can't connect to a server everytime (or: i COULD but I don't want to) because it takes a whole lot of time to do this. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ssh2-connect.php the connection I receive there is a resource.

As far as not exiting the script, that wouldn't seem very efficient and you might be better off just reaccessing the resources as needed. - Jeff -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 10, 2005 1:10 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] Having resource variables over several scripts Ok, first let me disclaim that there are definitely a lot of people a lot smarter than me out there who may have figured this one out already, but as far as I know, resources like open file handles, database connection handles, objects, etc.. but especially anything that returns a resource number are not going to be carried over from one script execution to another. If I recall properly, lets say script1.php opens a file, that's resource #1, then it opens a database connection, that's resource #2, etc.. Now let's say script2.php opens a database connection first, that's resource #1 for that script, then opens another database connection, that's resource #2, now it opens a file, that's resource #3.. So the 'resource' number isn't tied to a certain type of handle (file, db connection, etc), it's based on the order of resources allocated. That's only semi-related to what you're talking about, but thought it was worth mentioning. But I believe all of these resources are freed up as soon as the script finishes executing thereby necessitating re-opening files, db connections, recreating objects, (maybe objects can be serialized, I forget) when the next script is executed. No carry-over possible. The solution? Don't exit the script. Unfortunately in an web environment you can't really keep a php script executing unless you create a php based server that your scripts connect to (doesn't have to be php based really.. just any server that listens and can keep files open for as long as they're needed). Or maybe try to consolidate your file operations, in this case, so you can do it all in one pass. Don't open a file, read one little thing, close it... re-open it.. read something else... close it.. user makes changes.. opens file again.. writes changes.. closes it. read once and write once..See if you can streamline it somehow. Just some thoughts off the top of my head. Again, maybe someone else has a better answer, but I can't see how you'd avoid opening and closing each time unless you had a back-end server type program running. -TG -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] phpeclipse ide question
After the discussion about editors I have installed phpeclipse. It seems to work well and looks great. However I am having slight problem. Whenever I save a file it seems to try to launch a browser, anyway it comes up with a message saying something like 'unable to launch external browser. Please set up your external browser in browser preferences. It also launches an internal browser which is blank and if I type a URL in I get nothing. I have found a place to set up browsers and have both firefox and mozilla setup (I think) but am not sure wether I have set this up correctly (seems I have not). So my questions are. 1) where exactly and how do I set up an external browser to launch when I save a .PHP file. 2) How can I get the internal browser working, do I need to set up some stuff. 3) How do I turn off the auto launch when I save a .PHP file and if I do this how do I manually launch it in the internal/external browser. In fact launching the .PHP file from eclipse is of limited use as most of my pages require URL parameters. So another question is 4) Is there a way to set up testing URL (with ?/ parameters) for a .PHP file and is it possible to set up such a thing that calls a post to the file. I know having a browser open and switching between eclipse is a totally good work around but this would be great. Ben __ This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential.

[PHP] 2 dimensional array processing
If I create the following 2 dimensional associative array:-
$insert[tab2][fields1] = value1;
$insert[tab1][fields2] = value2;
$insert[tab2][fields5] = value3;
$insert[tab1][fields7] = value4;
how do I do 2 levels of nested loop with the first level looping through the
first level of the array and the second nesting through the second. something
like:-
foreach( $insert as $table = $fields ) {
foreatch( $fields as $field = $value ) {
echo update $table set $field = $value;
}
}
Regards,
Ben
Re: [PHP] 2 dimensional array processing
Ok - looking at what you did I cant see any diference apart from turning a
serious updated into a single update. This is usefull if I want to do an update
but I actualy want an insert (the update was just used for this example).
I actualy want to do an insert so i'me thinking the following would work:-
foreach ($insert as $table = $fields) {
foreach($fields as $field = $value) {
$columns[] = $field;
$values[] = '.$value.';
}
echo
insert into $table ( .implode( ', ', $columns ).
values ( .implode( ', ', $values ). ) ;
unset($columns);
unset($values);
}

You've created a 2x2 array, not a 1x4, which might be confusing you:
tab2 [fields1] [fields5]
tab1 [fields2] [fields7]
You almost have it, you just need to set your loop up to handle
unlimited field/value pairs in your array.
One option is to structure your loop like this:
foreach ($insert as $table = $fields) {
foreach($fields as $field = $value) {
$fieldValuePairs[] = $field = $value;
}
$fieldValueStr = implode(',', $fieldValuePairs);
echo update $table set $fieldValueStr;
unset($fieldValuePairs);
}

Re: [PHP] client information
A couple of things that mey help. I think phpinfo() will display all the system varables. These varables come from the web server so your web server documentation may help. Another thing that may work is implode ( ',' $_SERVER ) which should give you a (, comma) seperated list of $_SERVER (Not sure uf this works for assosiated arrays) and you can also see if the varable is there.

[PHP] $_REQUEST
Trying to get my head around relationship between/use of $_GET, $_POST and $_REQUEST. It seems to me that $_REQUEST is most useful as if it is used in place of $_POST/$_GET it would be possible to change posting method without changing the code. I am kind of assuming that $_REQUEST is and aggregate of $_POST, $_GET and $_FILES. Is this correct or are there differences. Ben
[PHP] Static variable reflection
I have been using and experimenting with PHP 5's reflection API and
have ran into a wall. I am trying to access static variables through

insight into my problem.
class ReflectionTest {
public static $x=5;
}
$refl = new ReflectionClass('ReflectionTest');
$prop = $refl-getProperty('x');
//$prop-getValue(NULL); not valid! need object
$obj = $refl-newInstance();
echo $prop-getValue($obj);
$prop-setValue($obj,8);//Won't work! Static variables can't be set!
echo $prop-getValue($obj);
Output:

[PHP] PHP modules
I have heard of php modules and to the sound of it it allows me to create php functions that I don't have to have include files to have access to those functions. I have been searching for any information on this and have not had any success. I am basically trying to write an API that others can use in php that will interface with my software. I would like to make it so that they don't have to worry about adding include files and having all of the structures set up for that. If anyone can provide information on building custom functions and calls into PHP it would be helpful.

[PHP] php fam problems
hi! I'm trying to use the fam module from cli-php5 with the example code from http://de2.php.net/manual/en/ref.fam.php. It works, but when I copy a big file into an observed folder, I get a FAMCreated for the file, and then, while the copying is still in progress, multiple FAMChanged. I want to watch a folder and process the files that are either new or changed. Currently, I would end up processing a new or changed file n times, with n depending on the file's size. I'd like to get ONE FAMCreated for a new file AFTER it was completely created and ONE FAMChanged for a file AFTER a process is done changing it. Is that possible? Also, when I watch i.e. /mnt, FAM doesn't notify me of events in /mnt's subdirectories, the monitoring seems to be non-recursive. Can I change this, or will I have to fam_monitor_directory each directory separately? thanks for your help!

What format is $list_path in? How is it a string-list? If there is a
delimiter (; or , for example) you can us explode.
$array_path = explode(';', $list_path);
I think the list is in scalar list e.g. if I print it as print
($list_path[0] I get
/home/user/index.php
/home/user1/index.php
/home/user2/index.php
/home/user3/index.php
and so on.
The only delimiter I can think of would to be explode on / and then
rebuild all the path from the array. But was hoping for a butter way as not
sure how to count all the values then?
Thank you
Ben

[PHP] How to debug XSLT Errors?
I'm trying to use the xslt_* functions, but I can't get any decent error
messages out of them. I've used the XML and XSL I'm passing it in IE, and
it gets processed and transformed correctly. The only error I get is:
Warning: Sablotron error on line 1: XML parser error 4: not well-formed
(invalid token) in C:\Websites\iStatus\test.php on line 16
In the log, I get:
Sablotron Message on line none, level log: Parsing
'http://localhost/Simple.xsl'...
So, I have an error on line 'none'? Can someone show me which line that is?
My XML and XSL is processed correctly by IE, so what gives here? How can I
get it to tell me what it is having a problem with? Without a line number
or some context, there is no way I'll ever debug this!
Using the following code:
$xh = xslt_create();
xslt_set_log($xh, true);

$args = array('/_xml' = $xml);
$html = xslt_process($xh, 'arg:/_xml', http://localhost/Simple.xsl;, NULL,

Re: [PHP] How to debug XSLT Errors?
I've got sabcmd and it is giving the same message. I've got about 3 hours
experience with XSL, so if this file is bad, let me know. Also, do you have
a recommendation for an xsl/xml validator? This XSL file works for me in IE
if I return my XML to the browser along with the tag ?xml-stylesheet
type=text/xsl href=Simple.xsl?. The problem with returning the XML is
that there is more information in the XML than I want the user to have. I
want the transform done on the server so the user does not get the full XML.

Try using the command line sablot sabcmd to parse the xsl file and see
if you can get any info on the well-formness of the file. If you dont
have the command line version I suggest downloading an application that
does xsl verification.
You could also send post the file so that we can review the xsl code.

[PHP] Line Number function?
PHP keeps track of what line# is being executed, so that when there's an error (say in pg_exec() ) it reports what line the error occured on. This appears to happen even during runtime (not just during compilation). For example: - ? $dbname=mydb; $dbuser=myuser; $dbpass=mypw; $conn=pg_connect(dbname=$dbname, user=$dbuser, password=$dbpass); $cmd=go and ask the mice; $result=pg_exec($conn, $cmd); ? -- This would result in a pg_exec error ~ line 7. PHP tracks this, even though the error is during runtime, not during the precompile. Is there a function where I can access this information? Something like get_line(); or something?

I've posted this a few weeks ago with no response. I want to use an external email template as it were, so that the sales guys can edit it as they like and simply shuffle the variables around that they need $username and $password (either with or without the ?php ? tags). I don't want them mucking around in my code and potentially screwing it up. Not to mention having a huge 'email' text in between those HTMLMESSAGE markers is ugly as hell and ends up making the color-coding in HomeSite all kinds of whack at the end of it. I tried to use: $message = HTMLMESSAGE include(/pathto/customer_email.php); HTMLMESSAGE; But $message has the literal string ''include(/pathto/customer_email.php);'' instead of including the file. Grr.. (wouldn't it make sense that an include() should be parsed FIRST with the contents put in place basically? This seems like a 'bug' not a feature. I also tried: $filename = /pathto/customer_email.php; $fd = fopen ($filename, r); $message = fread ($fd, filesize ($filename)); fclose ($fd); But all the $username, etc. are treated as literals and if I use ?=$username? in the customer_email.php the field is blank (like it's being parsed but doesn't have a value for it or something), instead of being converted to their actual PHP values. I also tried to put the global keyword in the customer_email.php file at the top. Ideally I would like to set things up so we have varoius form letter emails and I can switch them around based upon say a special order code, where the $user/$pw is always the same (depending on the database user of course), but the email content is different formats. Is there no way to accomplish this? Am I not being clear on what it is I'm trying to accomplish? My final thought is to use some regex to search for ?=$username? in $message after it's all been read in, and replace it with the variable $username or make up my own tag codes like [!username!] or something like that. This seems like such a hack, when PHP should be able to do this natively somehow.
