[PHP] php & javascript drop down menu???
OK... I have a dynamic menu system, and I have to maintain a dynamic menu. however, the amount of content I need in my menu is going to be rapidly outgrown. I believe my only solution is to deploy a javascript drop down menu (users have to be javascript compatible anyway for some other issues in my pages). however, it seems like anytime I try to integrate php & javascript I run into a total nightmare. the php & javascript do not need to integrate at the client level, but just on the server side to actually deploy the menu to the user. (have if then statements of info from a database that will determine if the item is displayed to the user or not, so should be pretty easy to accomodate) does anybody have any sample code of a javascript menu across the top of the page that will have menu, and submenu's they are deploying with php echo statements? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

ok - let me take that a step further - if I store the SID in the table also are the files in the /tmp directory stored with the SID? if they are this may be a way I can delete out inactive session, but be able to allow extended inactive sessions for users who may be pulling lengthy reports...

[PHP] anyway to do a 'whos online' from session variable?
when a user logs into my system I set a variable $_SESSION['username']. now, every page somebody pulls up it revalidates their login so somebody cannot get into the backend of the system. now - is there a way I can make a utility that will show me the session username's that are in use? it would be useful to be able to know who's currently online. this is a website that will not be published, and is used for a VERY limited number of people.

I'll have to play with this. this is not a public website per say so multiple requests on this in a short period of time probably isn't going to be an issue. I'll have to look at this & decide how I want to do this. I'm assuming I either need to do away with this, or make both options selectable. this isn't a released product so if they didn't get the access to this feature it wouldn't be the end of the world. they are already getting a ton more features with this product then they would otherwise have, which is nothing.

[PHP] Re: query join 2 databases? or match up arrays?
actually - I believe that may be a workable solution. you were mentioning checking the timestamp on a mysql table. how would I check the timestamp on a mysql table? even with this I'm betting it would be more time consuming to create the table then it would to pull the info from informix, and process validation 1 record at a time from mysql. that would be a simple query instead of an insert. this would also all take place on the server it's self instead of pulling it from another server. I could load it up with ram & let it run. at any rate that gives me a lot of option to think about, and I'll probably has to work with some samples of the stuff from here to see what way is going to be the fastest. it would probably depend if the user was pulling this info in a session. if it was once, or several times. all something to think about. the other option I'm thinking about is just not giving the distributors access to this information, but restricting it to users with permissions to the entire batch only. thanks, Jeff "Philip Hallstrom" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Hmm... what about querying the informix database for the set of rows you > want all at once, putting that into a temporary mysql table with a > timestamp and then doing the rest of your work from there. > > Then the next time it happens check the timestamp on that mysql table and > if it's out of date, delete it and go and fetch updated rows from > informix, otherwise just use what's in that mysql table. > > This would act as a sort of replicated table, but only taking into account > the records that are actually being hit... > > maybe? > > On Fri, 3 Jan 2003, Jeff Bluemel wrote: > > > well - the informix database will be running on another server (a telecom > > billing system). this is a web based front end, and I really want to leave > > the other system alone 100%. if I were to modify anything I would make the > > mysql permissions table inside of informix, but there are liability reason > > which would keep me from doing so. > > > > still - you bring up an interesting point. a php script file that ran on > > crontab may not be a bad answer. however, again I would run into a problem > > of volume. there are an average of 3-4 million card in the informix server > > so I couldn't do this in a export & import. too may records, and info has > > to be accurate within 15 minutes. shear volume I believe is going to kill > > that idea.

[PHP] Re: query join 2 databases? or match up arrays?
well - the informix database will be running on another server (a telecom billing system). this is a web based front end, and I really want to leave the other system alone 100%. if I were to modify anything I would make the mysql permissions table inside of informix, but there are liability reason which would keep me from doing so. still - you bring up an interesting point. a php script file that ran on crontab may not be a bad answer. however, again I would run into a problem of volume. there are an average of 3-4 million card in the informix server so I couldn't do this in a export & import. too may records, and info has to be accurate within 15 minutes. shear volume I believe is going to kill that idea. I would be back to 1 record at a time running every 15 minutes. I would think too much load, and more practical to do it 1 record at a time upon request which won't be too frequent. hoping there's another solution I'm not aware of, or over looked.

[PHP] query join 2 databases? or match up arrays?
ok - here's my problem. I have some data in mysql, and other data in informix. here is my application. this is for distributors of prepaid phone cards. prepaid phone cards have 3 numbers they can be identified by pin number (which is unique), or by batch & serial number. the batch number is basically the type of card, and the serial number & batch number for another unique identifier when used together. now - a batch can be given to several different distributors. therefore, when then are pulling various types of information on the batch they should only be able to see it for their cards, and not all of the cards in the batch. piece of cake right? well - the permissions information is kept in mysql, and the batch information its self is kept in an informix database. there is no way around this for me. the only way I can think of to work around this problem is to query 1 card at a time, and sum the info etc. together. however, there could be 400,000+ records, and this would be a slow tedious process. plus for each card I'd have to query the mysql database for permissions, and then in turn query the informix database in turn. this could take a long time to display the webpage. clear as mud??? recommendations? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] problems with jsp & php
I cannot figure out where my problem is with the following script. I know
I've used this syntax successfuly in the past. when I take out the
variables, and just set link to something without using php then this works.
know when I click on the form that activated the button it does nothing.
function batch_close()
{
if (parent_window && !parent_window.closed)
{
var action = ;
var batch = ;
var begin = ;
var end = ;

the other method may be a little quicker, but this code is easier for me to

difference in how quickly it displays.

Re: [PHP] is this not possible?
here's the URL if case somebody decides to look at it; http://obi-wan.domintcom.com user: guest pass: domintcom go to customer service, prepaid pin, and then look up 3077876962 - activate, deactivate, and recharge this is for customer service of prepaid phone cards. now - when I reload this page to refresh the information sometimes it can really take awhile. I need to somehow get the information from the user on how much to recharge the pin for. now, before I refresh the page I need to get how much the user wants to recharge, process the recharge, and then refresh the page that all of this started on. I thought it would be the simplest if I could somehow use javascript to prompt the user for a value, confirm if the user wants to recharge x pin for $xx.xx, recharge the pin, and then refresh the calling page so it now reflects the new balance. I don't want to refresh original page until this is all done because it can take sometime for this page load at times. is everybody lost now?

[PHP] is this not possible?
I'm been ignored on this question for 4-5 days now. even if it is not possible could somebody please verify this? is it possible to pass a variable from javascript directly to php WITHOUT using either a link, or a form submit to pass the variables? I've gotten a work around to call an image that's actually a php file, but run my script, and then return an image file. is this the only way? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] howto pass javascript variable to php
it's easy enough to pass php variable to javascript, but doing this the other way around without a form submit, or location (passing as a php $_GET variable) seems to be a little nightmare. it's easy enough to do it with the form submit, or a location command. thanks, Jeff -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] can I retrieve jsp varibable with get or post???
ok - the more I look at this the more I'm a bit lost. passing the variables from php to java makes sense. however, from your scripts you listed it is only possible to pass jsp variables to php by opening a new page, or by activating a form. is there a way to pass jsp variables to php while a script is running? i.e. use a jsp prompt to get a value as the php script goes on, and then take an action on that variable? for instance I have a situation where I need to apply a credit. granted, I could use a form to accomplish this, but I feel it would be much cleaner to use jsp to get the value. I also have situation where before proceeding I want to get an ok / cancel.

Re: [PHP] command to determine the end of a page?
actually Jay - I think inadvertently you answered my question better then I was really looking for. I originally wanted to do this with PDF, but the costs for pdflib were just too high, and I wouldn't find an open source/free solution. I will have to take a look at fpdf, and see if I can use it. if not then I guess I'll turn to java script which would be acceptable too.

ok - I played with this, and found this to work (but I have no idea why).
is there a good webpage that give good information on the variable, and
html? I have the code working, but I really have no idea how this stuff
works together like it does. I would be very interested in some place I can
get a detailed explaination html variable, and how to php integrates with
it.

Re: [PHP] is there an alternative to this code?
ok - I'm looking at the code you posted, and I'm following some of it, but not all of it. let me tell you what I am trying to accomplish. I like the code you posted below, but I don't believe I am understanding it well enough to implement it. I have this 'clickable image'. when I click the image I want to reload the same page, but set a variable which will add more items to the menu in the form of an if statement. I tried to solve it with the following code instead of a form (I like they way you are using the link's there - is there a good howto on web variables, and more details on that type of code? - I've looked through what I can find, but doesn't make much sense still) this code sets the variable evertime the page is loaded instead of just 'onclick' here is my original code as it was originally coded.

[PHP] recent encrpyt decrypt code... (problems)
I've seen a few other post on this, and it sounds like there is more then
one of use that is trying this script. I've got it so that I can use the
commands, but I still get errors on the page...
here is what I have done.
I downloaded libmycrpt from
ftp://mcrypt.hellug.gr/pub/crypto/mcrypt/libmcrypt and configured it with
the following options;
./configure \
--with-included-algos="rijndael-128 arcfour stream cbc cfb"\
--disable-posix-threads
I then reconfigured php with the --with-mcrpty option. now when I try to
run the code I get the following errors; (the php code I will repost inc
ase there are any questions)

Re: Re[2]: [PHP] inputbox?
OK Tom - that script worked beautiful.
there are a few different applications that I need this for, and I'm
wondering if you can either help me with the coding, or refer me to a
webpage that can get me started in the right direction.
I need to collect a value that will be used in a query. (assuming this is
pretty easy - just use the value listed in post for this form)
I also need an OK / Cancel option that I can use a die with if the cancel,
or proceed if they select OK.
when I use this java script does this reload the page, and go back to the
top, or does it simply set the $_POST value?

Re: [PHP] Re: inputbox?
LOL - I've been using VB for about 6 years, and I'm just beginning to convert over to php. the application I am writing is for prepaid phone cards. if they are going to activate a pin, inactivate, or recharge then I want a confirmation box. I would prefer to also have a box pop up to get the value they want to recharge instead of having an input text box on the form. for some reason people seem to over look the text box, and they tend to leave it empty vs. displaying a dialog box that asks for the amount they would like to recharge. I need to go back to my customers, and find out how important a confirmation box is. I had skimmed through the php functions, but didn't see anything that looked what I was looking for.

[PHP] inputbox?
is there a way to for an input box to come up looking for a value? I know there are a few ways I could resolve my current issue, but I would prefer to display an inputbox, and use that value in my query. basically I would do a $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'] as the action of a form, but then I would have to get a value to pass to the query. this would be for prepaid phone cards. if somebody selected to recharge then I would like an input box to be displayed asking the amount they would like to recharge. -- Jeff Bluemel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] syntax question
let me be more specific... if a field value is null how do I test for it in the result set, or the array? here's a real live example... I'm working with prepaid phone cards, and if a card has not expired yet then the field zombie_date will be null. so - when I do the mysql_fetch_assoc ($sql) what value will the field contain if the resulting recordset was a null? instead of leaving that table space blank I would like to populate it with "Not Expired" or something like that. (I have a lot of scenario's where I would like to use that).

I've been coding in other languages for about 6 years now, and I have looked
through a lot of the mysql stuff, and the explanations just don't make sense
for me (or the examples, I can make them work, but don't understand why they
work). it seems there are just basic's of the language they expect that you
understand. piece by piece I'm getting it, but I'm not happy just copying
code, and seeing something work. I've got to know why something worked, and
feel like I understand more of the in's and out's. I think the howto's skip
over a lot of things that have me confused.
it seems like a lot of this stuff deals more with array's, and that's
something I never learned to handle in other languages. this may be part of
my problem...
as far as using the select queries, that's an option most times, but there
are some situations where there are too many calls to the database, and the
code isn't efficient.
here's a sample of things I made work, but don't understand...
Date
ANI
DNIS
Country
Destination
Pay Phone
Cost
Minutes
no - obviously here I understand what fields I'm getting out of the
database, but I'd prefer to use a syntax that would print the field names in
the top column of the table, and make my code more transportable. with the
stuff I'm doing this would be a great help.

couple of questions... I'm am learning php & mysql without any books (will also be using postgres, and informix, but assuming most of these are about the same other then sql syntax), and through internet resources. there are a lot of good step throughs on a lot of stuff, but there are some things I'm having a hard time finding how to's on... for instance - if there a command that will give me the name of the fields in the result set? how to I test for a null value? how do I go from one row to the next, or how do I filter a result set based on a value in a column? is there a way to sum a specific field? would appreciate whatever help I can get, and even better if somebody know's a step through that goes through all the basic's of database syntaxes in php. -- Thanks, Jeff Bluemel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] length function
I am looking for a function that will give me the number of characters of a string, or number. I tried using the function length, but that function seems to deal with arrays, and doesn't seem to function like I am intending it to. -- Thanks, Jeff Bluemel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I want drop down menu's in my setup that I am creating. however, when the

I don't know if this is possible, but in VB (I'd like to find something similar in php) I would open a record set, and then filter / unfilter it for similar issues (in a loop).

I have no idea what you mean. for some reason when I was reading the documentation on sessions on php.net I thought it stated that it was possible to have a cookie point at a transaprent ID. I guess one of my biggest concerns is security. I don't want somebody to be able to open a session with an ID, and I want them to login everytime. this all happens behind ssl too.

[PHP] session & cookies
OK guys... here's my question - I'm using 4.2.3 and apache 1.3.26, and I've got sessions setup. however, it seems to be using an SID attached to the URL, and I want to force it to use a cookie that points to a transparent SID on my system. I've got the following options in my php.ini, but the system doesn't seem to ever use a cookie, and the sessions don't die. (that's my biggest concern is that the user has to login to the system EVERY time he visits the site.) session.use_cookies = 1 session.use_only_cookies = 1 session.use_trans_sid = 1 -- Thanks, Jeff Bluemel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
