Re: [PHP] adding Back to Search results link
Thanks for the help, Kirk. The form 2 uses a _GET to call the information from Form 1. So you select the serach criteria on Form 1, Form 2 returns the criteria, Form 3 is the result of a selection made on Form 2. And for some reason I can't pass that Query String from Form 1 into Form 3. I am still having problems passing the string. But only because at the point a user reaches form 1 the Session is already active. Maybe I am just placing the $_SESSION['search_results_querystring'] = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; in the wrong place. I assume this has to be placed before right after my include statements. I am still messing around with it. I have also been told that maybe passing the value as a part of the (already established) cookie may work as well. Both options seem to use the same logic. I'll keep you posted. Kirk Friggstad [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Derek: Does form 1 use POST or GET to call form 2? If it uses GET, you could store the search page URL in a $_SESSION variable - something like this in your search results (form 2): $_SESSION['search_results_querystring'] = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; and in your editing page (form 3): a href=form2.php??php echo $_SESSION['search_results_URL'] ?Back to search results/a (You'll need session support in both pages, of course - make sure you call session_start() before working with the $_SESSION array). If form 1 uses POST, then it'll get a little more complicated - you could try saving the $_POST data in the session (think there was a recent thread on this list regarding that) and creating a form with hidden elements on form 3 that does a POST back to form 2. I'm a bit of a PHP newbie myself (just coming out of a long career in ASP/VBscript development), so I'd appreciate any comments, (gentle) criticism, etc. Hope this helps.

Re: [PHP] Questions from a ColdFusion Developer
Not sure if I can give a good answer, but try doing a var_dump on
$_SESSION[Search Result] and see what you get. I suspect that it is
null. If that's the case then track down where it is getting assigned.
It should look something like $_SESSION[SearchResult] = $users.
Christopher Jordan wrote:
Hi folks,
I'm a ColdFusion developer, but I'm branching out into PHP because alot of my smaller clients don't want to pay for CF.
Anyway, a bit of background:
I've got a page that does a search on one of my tables. I'm using Justin Vincent's ezSQL (http://php.justinvincent.com) to fetch the result set into an object that can be referenced nicely. Here's what his example code looks like:
// Select multiple records from the database and print them out..
$users = $db-get_results(SELECT name, email FROM users);
foreach ( $users as $user ){
// Access data using object syntax
echo $user-name;
echo $user-email;
}
So far so good. So I've got an iframe on the page which (I hope) will eventually display the results of the search. The user will then click on the search result for which they want to view the details, and the information from that row will be populated inside the main page (the one that houses the iframe).
Hope that makes sense.
Okay, so my trouble is that I don't know how to enable the page inside the iframe to have access to the result object created by Justin Vincent's nifty little class. In CF I can just say:
session.oResults = queryname
CF automatically returns any query as an object with the name of the query as the object name (i.e. queryname.MyIdField, or queryname.EmployeeNumber, etc.) Using a line like the one above (assigning the query object to a session variable) all of my subsequent requests would have access to that result set simply by using the object.
I'm *sure* there's a way to do this in PHP. I'm just falling short of finding the answer. I've tried:
$_SESSION[SearchResult] = $db-get_results($query);
But it doesn't seem to work. I may have some other problem using the object. I just re-read my error and it says:
Fatal error: Call to a member function get_results() on a non-object in inventorymanager.php on line 93
hmm... I sure would appreciate a little guidence here. Even if my problem is with the way I'm using the object, is the idea of assigning that object to the session scope the right way to do this or is there a better approach. To that end, I suppose I'm looking for an idea of the best practice.
Thanks!

Which should write to your error log file,php_errors, in the existing

Have you tried changing the log file name to something else? I don't

Re: [PHP] Designing a complicated multipage form with sessions
Andy Pieters wrote: Hi List I am quite experienced in PHP. I have been asked to design a complicated form in php that spans multiple pages and has many subitems. For instance if they select one checkbox, more details are required in the form of a dropdown list or radio buttons. It would allow browsing the different pages randomly, and final validation is only to be performed on the last page. In case of errors, it would load the page where the first error is found and display a message and highlight the faults. I currently made a list of all vars in an xml file, and associated a page number for each. Now when the page loads it looks up the vars used on that page and loads them from post (if present and stores them in session right away) or loads them from session if no post is present. Any ideas for improvements, common pitfalls, etc are highly appreciated. With kind regards Andy You may want to consider a mixed AJAX and clientside javascript validation. Requiring the user to go through a complex form and delay validation until the end may fustrate users. I would avoid putting business rules into the clientside javascript, but it would be reasonable to check for things like valid dates, required fields completed etc. You can also use simple clientside javascript to create or expose appropriate dropdowns as needed. In this case of items where more complex business rules need to be validated you can hit the backend via AJAX (XML over http) to load further clientside rules or perform autocompletion (e.g. zipcode to city state lookup). See googles suggest site for example of autocompletion approach. Since you are already in the XML world, you may want to consider creating your page via an XSLT transform of an XML representation of the data. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Modular Authoring System
Sascha, We're starting work on a similar (to be open sourced) project, XML/XSLT based. We're also putting together a process creation and tracking mechanism. I would be glad to take a look at the design and code. We have a great XSLT programmer. Sascha Braun wrote: Hi, I am now working on a concept for a webportal software in about 2 and a halv year. As far as I am in the development of the project I was able to write an authoring system with support of unlimited language transla- tions and xml based frontend/screen engine. All html forms and screens are generated via parsed xml frontend tem- plates. The navigation elements are consisting of xml elements too. Alot of things can be done, without the developer has to write html or php code very much. The media asset management system is able to convert images, videos and in near future audio files to any format the player needs to play the video or audio file without use of mplayer-plugin or windows media pla- yer. I wrote a question catalog management system, with which it is very easy to add question catalogs to the content management system, so individual services can be offered to customers, by evaluation of the user given answers to the system. The user management has a very detailed rights management, and the user profiles are consisting of xml profile element templates which are editable, thru the form engine, which is reading the xml profile tem- plates and is displaying them as forms. The screentext management is a nice frontend to the screentext database, in which all frontend screentexts are stored, while the documents of the content management system are entered by a special xml editor i wrote, with wich the webauthor dont has to be able to know any html tags or such things, so write content for the website. In future i want to add the possebility to the editor, that authors are going to be able to add tables, generated by the GD lib, so informations cant just be grabbed by other companys too easy, so informations cant really be stolen. And i want to add a frontend to the JPGraph lib, so the authors will be able to enter values into the documents they are working on, to add diagrams to the document. I nice working template engine has to be written, so the design of the hole page can change by daytime or the time of the year. I added a cronjob management tool, so alot of tasks can be executed timed as needed. If a customer of an couple finder service want to get out of his contract, it can be done automatically to the end of the month, without the site administrators have to do anything about it. The Online shopping module should consist of a kind of neural network to find out, what kind of products is fitting best to a customer with specific account values based on the question catalog management tool. Later I want to add an tracking system, a product managment system, and marketing management tool, a statistics tool and many other things. The hole system is build up modular and is based on php5. No other programmer did ever take a look at this system, so I dont really now, if my design is well, or if my php code is just wellformed. I'm went to work alone, because i did so in the last 8 years. My question is now, as this concept and the authoring system itself is not opensource at the moment. If somepeople would like to take a look at it, and maybe discuss with me, wheather to make it opensource, or letting it stay as a commercial project. My only goal is, to set up the webportals I have written concepts for in the last couple of years. But the project is now comming into a size where its nearly impossible to start anything new, because there still are alot of holes in the modules. And my pressure is growing abit. All i can say, that is is possible to set up a content management based website including webdesign and all other things can be done with the authoring system in about 4 - 6 days, instead of one or two month, it would take to write something like that on your own if you dont use all of the modules the authoring system is consisting of at the moment. I'm not the best programmer, but I'm good in software design and concep- tion. So it would be really nice, to have some people around, who can take care abit about the quality of the project. And maybe make use of it, like i want too. So best regards, and lets make it happen :))) Sascha Braun -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Dynamic include_path
Hey folks, What we are looking to do is give a specific include path for each site in our customer base. This running on MacOSX so basically we have sites set up like: /Users/username/Sites/site.com/phpinc There can be numerous sites in each users directory and numerous users in /Users. Basically what we want to do is have each set up to be able to include only from their include directory, but the boss is wondering if it can be done on one or two lines for every site total. Basically looking for something like this: Directory /Users/*/Sites/*/phpinc php-value include_path = . /Directory or something like it. Is this possible?

[PHP] Problem with set_time_limit() and uploading large files
Hi,
I am having a major problem getting set_time_limit() to work at all
with PHP 4.2.3 running as a CGI program under IIS for Windows 2000 (I
originally posted this message to php-win, but am hoping someone here
can shed some light on this). I have a form that accepts large files
for upload, with the following lines at the top of the form action
script:
?php
// let this script take as long as it needs to complete its work
// and ignore if user hits stops button in his browser
set_time_limit(0);
ignore_user_abort(true);
// include site-wide configs and other include files
require_once('../includes/site.php');
...
If the file upload takes longer than 30 seconds, PHP bombs out with the
following error:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in
D:\InetPub\test.php on line 3
I've also tried adding:
ini_set('max_execution_time', 6);
before the set_time_limit() function, but to no avail. PHP is not
running in safe mode. Does anyone have any ideas why this is not
working as expected? I'm sure it's something obvious, but I don't know
what it is.
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the tips, but they all checked out in the end. After

it's only with Win2000, I'm not sure), but has been fixed in CVS. Now

[PHP] Rebuilding PHP4 with IBM DB2 Support Causes Apache to Die Upon Restart
Currently I have Apache and PHP4 (using the Apache module for PHP4) working just fine on my server. However, the RPMs I installed for mod_php4 didn't include IBM DB2 support. So I took the source RPM and modified it by simply adding the following line to the spec file: --with-ibm-db2 I appended this to the CFLAGS parameter in the spec file. I then rebuilt the RPMs and everything built fine. I then installed them and that was fine. However, when I try to restart Apache nothing happens. It just exits immediately with nothing written to any logs. If I remove the '--with-ibm-db2' flag from the spec file, rebuild the RPMs, then reinstall them without DB2 support then Apache restarts fine and operates with no problems. DB2 is installed, configured, and running on the server. I've spent numerous hours (on the weekend none the less) trying to figure this out, but with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[PHP] Failed to initialize session module
Hello,
I am trying to get session data written to a MySQL table using

issue session_register(varname) on a page:
Fatal error: Failed to initialize session module in
/Library/WebServer/Documents/VirtualHosts/www/admin/en/login.php on

I have set session.save_handler to user and session.save_path to
mysql://USER:PASS@localhost/DB in my php.ini file. File-based
sessions seem to work fine with session.save_handler set to files and
session.save_path to /tmp. I am using the following code as my save
handler (taken from Web Application Development With PHP 4.0 by
Tobias Ratschiller and Till Gerken):
?php
$sess_mysql = array();
$sess_mysql[open_connection] = true;
$sess_mysql[hostname] = localhost;

$sess_mysql[table] = sessions;
function sess_mysql_open($save_path, $sess_name)

}
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

?
I have also tried Sam Johnston's PEAR Custom Session Handler for PHP4
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/pearsession/), but I get the same
error. Like I said, file-based sessions are working fine, but any
custom handler bombs with the error I noted above. This is all
running under Mac OS X 10.1.1, PHP 4.0.6 using the PEAR DB libraries
(among others) and MySQL 3.23.43.
What could be causing the error? I've searched and searched but
can't seem to find any answers. Thanks in advance,

Re: [PHP] Re: Loading message
I suspect that PHP does all of it's work and, only when complete, will it
send the generated html to the client.
No matter what you try and do there's no way you can output the progress of
your script to the browser while it is still being parsed.
I could be wrong, but this is my understanding of it.
Is your script really taking that long to be parsed that you need a loading
progress bar or is the html (including graphics etc) just very big?
Anyway,
Hope this helps

the page won't ever showup unless the webserver finishes

therefore what you're asking for has a javascript solution:
1)make a div with width and height about 1000 and absolute position w/

2)add a body.onload event so that when the pages loads you hide
that layer.
3)that layer can hold any text or tags as you want like: Please

Re: [PHP] Re: Loading message
If what I've said is correct, then in simple terms... your php code will take a set amount of time to execute everything, then the html and web page cmoponents are sent to the browser, then the browser interprets the html and displays the page. One of the stages listed above seems to be running slow. I'm fairly new to PHP and haven't attempted to time how long a php script takes to execute, but you should test this and if it's slow, then I suppose you want to try and optimise the script. if you save everything on the web page and examine the size of the file this might give you an indication as to whether it's a bandwidth problem. You could save the html and all components, upload them to the server as a normal static web page and compare the download times with the dynamic, PHP-generated page. copy the html generated into an html editor that highlights html syntax errors - your browser might be having problems interpreting the html. If your page starts to display content immediately and then takes a while to complete AND if I'm correct in saying the PHP finishes before the generated page is sent to the browser then it's unlikely to be a slow PHP script that's the problem.

Re: [PHP] Sessions Variables and refresh pages

This is more of a quick-fix than a techncal solution, but it should work. After experimenting with using session id's to track users I opted for using cookies.

Re: [PHP] Building Dynamic Value list using ohp
oops...I was going to add...
2) -
$result = mysql_query($query, $mysql_link);
doesn't require the $mysql_link argument, try
$result = mysql_query($query);
Another general comment is that you have copied a bit of your code that
seems to include the root password to mysql. Not a good idea - you should
check and edit your code if necessary before posting.
Hope this helps - good luck

Re: [PHP] Building Dynamic Value list using ohp
what's the error you're getting now?
if you aren't getting any error, but it just isn't working try something
like...(note that I haven't tested this code).
$drop_down_list = select name=\select\;
$link = mysql_connect ('localhost', '', '')
or die (Could not select db);
mysql_select_db ('Heronsql')
or die (Could not connect);
$query=select distinct HEI from heronuser;
$result = mysql_query ($query);
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
for ($i = 0; $i $num; $i++) {
$HEI = mysql_result($result, $i, HEI);
$drop_down_list .= option value=\$HEI\$HEI/option;
}
mysql_close($link);
$drop_down_list .= /select;
echo $drop_down_list;
Cheers the noo,

Subject: RE: [PHP] Building Dynamic Value list using ohp
1. this:
print(option value=\$row[0]\$row[0]/option);
should be this:
print(option value=\{$row[0]}\{$row[0]}/option);
or like this:
echo 'option value='.$row[0].''.$row[0].'/option');
The reason for it is that within double quote you can parse for 'simple'
variables only (es: $var, not $var[]). Otherwise it gives you a parse
error.
2. this:
mysql_connect ('localhost', 'root', 'monty');
better be this:
mysql_connect ('localhost', '', ''); // for security
reasons obviously, you don't wanna give the password our to the group,
even so it is your local server (you might not be original with the
password on production machines, no?)
Hope it helps,

[PHP] What would you want in a PHP web host?
I have been developing PHP for a while now, and I am wondering how other developers find their PHP hosting company. So far this has not been an issue for me because I am always in full control of my servers (well, as much control as possible with any web server :), but recently we have begun to host other PHP sites. We want to make sure that we are providing appropriate support to our PHP developers. I see too many hosting companies saying that they support PHP, but not having anyone familiar with PHP on hand. We want to have actual support, a developer to call when you have a PHP issue. What do you think a medium sized hosting company could do to give you (the developer) better service and support? Is access to professional PHP developers useful when an issue arises? Are hosting companies reluctant to give you more access rights? Are they willing to re-compile their PHP build to add other options? How long do requested changes to the server take? What other suggestions do you have for improving the relationship between the server administrator and the PHP developer? I spent some time going through the PHP site looking at the list of hosts supporting PHP, but I didn't find any real discussion about what people want in a host (although I did find plenty of things they don't want :). I just figured that I would ask the PHP community exactly what they wanted.

[PHP] how to handle LDAP referrals
I have 2 machines running OpenLDAP, one as a master directory and the other as a slave. I have the master directory replicating to the slave machine and the slave machine is set up to refer the master url back to the client when the client attepts to update the slave. The machines seem to be doing their bit, but how do I get my PHP scripts to follow the referral sent back from the slave? The ldap_errno returned is 9 and I could, perhaps, get the script to take action based in that, but how would I grab the referred URL. I could, of course, just make sure that the script points to the master directory, but I wondered if there are any other choices avaiable to me. Thanks in advance for any help offered.

[PHP] use NEWLY-ASSIGNED SESSION id?
My PHP script (with --trans-sid enabled)
assigns a session ID for people without cookies.
No big deal, right?
BUT THE BIG QUESTION IS:
Can I immediately know what long string PHP assigned to the session,
without having to click to a different page first?
I want one single PHP page to
#1 - assign a session
#2 - then use header ("Location: http://someurl.php?PHPSESSID=" . $userid)
immediately in that same page.
((The reason why would take too long to explain.))
So... HOW COULD I DO THIS? (without cookies enabled?)

Re: [PHP] sessions broken when redirected?
I had this same problem and it constantly broke our whole site.
So I tried a different approach and this has been working great:
Instead of ? header ("Location: sometoherpage.php"); ?
Consider: ? include "someotherpage.php"; ?
It works flawlessly, always, and maintains your session.
Because my site ( a shopping cart/store ) is so dependent on sessions, I
stopped using redirects and "Location: " functions entirely.
We just use ? include "..." ? now and all sessions work
wonderfully. Even without cookies, etc.

I generally agree, but there is...
ONE GOOD USE FOR HTML EMAIL: AOL DUMMIES.
REASON:
When I would send my email list a URL I needed them to go to, I would do it
in plain-text. ("Go to www.something.com and do something.")
And because 90% of the email programs out there automatically make it a
hyperlinked URL, there was no problem - *EXCEPT* the AOL people who would
email back stupid things like, "Sounds interesting! What's the web address?"
SOLUTION:
When you're sending email using PHP, try this:
if (strtolower(strstr($email, '@'))=="aol.com")
{
$link1 = 'a href="http://www.something.com/"www.something.com/a';
$link2 = 'a href="http://www.otherthing.com/"www.otherthing.com/a';

else
{
$link1 = 'www.something.com';
$link2 = 'www.otherthing.com';
}
$message = "Hey $firstname -
Check out this link!
" . $link1 . "
and also this one...
" . $link2 . "
Enoy!";
mail ($email, $subject, $message, $headers);
That way the AOL dummies get their hyperlinked HTML links, and all the cool

[PHP] spidering dynamic pages
if I move everything to php and just use a different text file for each page for the main body of text and load each text file depending on what page the user wants, would the search engine search though those text files and just link to those and not to the php file? Would it even be spidered by the search enging properly? Many search engines will NOT spider pages that have "?" or "" in the URL. But they WILL spider PHP pages as if they were static content IF you hack Apache or PHP to let "/" be the variable separator instead of "?" There are different ways of doing this. Search the PHP list archives or check out some recent PHP books. But here's the effect you're shooting for: INSTEAD OF: http://www.yoursite.com/showarticle.php?id=3article=8language=en YOU CAN MAKE IT: http://www.yoursite.com/showarticle/id/3/article/8/language/en OR EVEN: http://www.yoursite.com/showarticle/3/8/en OR: http://www.yoursite.com/somepage/en/3/8.html ... and just have PHP ignore any ".*" URL extensions before deciding what to take as the variables in the URL. I do the last example at this site: http://www.cdbaby.org/ It's a totally dynamic site that has gotten very well-spidered using these methods. THE APACHE HACK: You can either use "mod_rewrite" or in your Apache "/conf/httpd.conf" file, set: DefaultType application/x-httpd-php --- not sure of exact spelling So that ALL files with no extension are parsed as PHP files. Which lets you rename "showarticle.php" to just "showarticle" in the examples above. Hope this made sense. I'd give concrete code examples but I'm offline right now. -- 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] How to protect my scripts ???
Can't the files be put into a directory that Apache has access to and the users don't, and just ask the users to include them? Or put them into a global prepend in a directory same as above? This isn't PERFECT, but I do this: #1 - make a user/group called "www" #2 - Set Apache to run as that user. #3 - chmod all web-directories to 700 permission (chown www:www -R *; chmod 700 -R *) - so that ONLY "www" can read/write them. #4 - log in as "www" user when you're uploading files to your webserver. -- 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] Sending pretty email
I often receive email from commercial sites (e.g. ZDnet) that looks like a Web page. How can I do that with Sendmail in PHP? The man page for "mail" gives an example of it. http://www.php.net/mail It's just one "$header" line, stating HTML, then the rest of your message should be in HTML: htmlbody h1Hello Todd!/h1 pThank you for your can of worms./p Of course I recommend spacing out your HTML so that people without HTML capabilities can still make good sense of it. -- 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] include() require()
Which is the main difference between include() and
require() functions?
"include" is optional
you can put it inside an "IF"
like this:
if (0)
{
/* THIS WILL NOT SHOW... */
include "optional_file.php";
}
but "require" happens every time,
even if it is inside an "IF" that does not happen.
if (0)
{
/* THIS WILL SHOW ANYWAY... */
require "optional_file.php";
}
Me personally,
I use "require" to include functions, libraries, classes that I NEED to run
the page.
Then I use "include" for optional things, based on "if".
?
require "functions.inc";
if ($sunny_day)
{
include "sunny_day_message.txt";
}
?

Re: [PHP] foo[bar] _or_ foo['bar'] ?
I'd really appreciate a clear statement whether to use better
$foo = array('bar' = 'boing');
doWhatSoEver($foo[bar]);
or
$foo = array('bar' = 'boing');
doWhatSoEver($foo['bar']);
I had heard someone on the list say that it's always best to use quotes,
for the same reason as XHTML, where every value MUST have quotes.
But honestly I've been using only NO-quotes all year and find it much
easier to read. And NEVER any problem!
Also makes it easier when you need to use an array variable inside a quoted
string:
print "Hello there $client[name]";

[PHP] PARANOID PERMISSIONS for apache?
Can anyone think of any downside to this idea? Set Apache to run as user/group "www:www" Set ownership of PHP files and folders to "www:www" And set permissions to 700 So that ONLY Apache can read them. Now - even if I give someone shell access to my box, or someone finds my personal login password, they still can't read my PHP passwords to MySQL. (Of course I'd have to be user "www" when uploading changes/files to the website.) Any other paranoid people tried this?

Set the links as template variables and then substitute them with

Hi Max,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, the solution you suggest means
that I would have to do a set_var on all hyperlinks (i.e., define all
hyperlinks everywhere on the site), which is a huge amount of
maintenance. What I thought about yesterday was creating some sort
of token (e.g., {@}) that could be tacked onto the end of
hyperlinks that I want to add session info to. Maybe there's a
better way... I don't know! :(

[PHP] Mixing PHP code with phplib templates... possible?
Hi, Is there a way to embed PHP code in phplib's template files? I need to run all hyperlinks through a function in order to maintain state and pass other variables from script to script. I figure this must be possible, but I'm new at using phplib, so I'm not all that clear on it...
