If you don't mind non-opensource but php based you could take
a look at:

We were using Webedit Pro, but have found it a pain not to be able to

hi,
im working with php 4 and postgresql 8 and in my php script id like to create a

Well if the creation fails pg_query will throw an error. However temp 
tables are only good for the life of the connection (script in this 
case). You will probably want to consider that.

Sincerely,

i tried the following:
$sql = create temp table s_info(a int, b text) on commit delete rows ;
pg_query($dbh,$sql);
$dbh is my connection.
any help will be highly appreciated.

PHP5, and make my Directory in httpd.include use PHP4 for my webmail

Any idears how to install this 2 PHP versions together, and let it

Re: [PHP] validate international phone numbers

Hi,
I am trying to validate international phone numbers before adding into 
a db.
After a bit of research I came up with this regex:

return (ereg('^[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,6}\.[0-9]{1,8}$', $phone));
However, this tightens the numbers to something like this:  
409.711.933838

Thats a problem, since some countries have complete other formats and 
some peopole place a + in front and a : instead of . or even just the 
number.

Can anybody recommend a good regex to validate this? I am not to good 
at creating regex :-(

Strip out all non-numerical characters before you process.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake

Thanx for any help,
Merlin

Why not just keep an acl list of which applications a particular session 
is logged in for? What I mean is you have your sessions table. You know 
they are logged in.

User foo: logged into app a
User foo: Goes to app b
  App b recognizes the name of the cookie and checks the value against
  the session table. If true --
User foo: is recognized but requested to log in
When User foo logs in, the auth table is updated to reflect that they 
are not authenticated against a different part of the site.

Is there anyway to do the same with Post variables? For instance, a 
javascript that onUnload submit, or something?

You can't just include POST variables in a link, if that's what you're 
going for. Perhaps some clunky javascript submitting a hidden form on 
an onclick method would get you close, but why even bother?

Maybe you should just say what you're actually trying to achieve and 
why, then we could offer better alternatives.

It may be helpful to know which database as each database has there own

Re: [PHP] Working as a PHP/database developer..

2003-12-01 Thread Joshua D. Drake
Hello,

  As a development company who has been profitable for 6 years I suggest
the following:

  1. There are no fixed fees. All time will be billed.
  2. Put everything in writing. If they want you to change the f to F make
them put it in writing.
  3. If you do have a flat fee for something... make it something you 
already have code for or have a procedure for. Even then, make sure
you have a test case for the procedure. If the test case fails it is
time and materials.
  4. Require a downpayment of at least 30% of the total ESTIMATE. Our 
estimates are usually something like:

15,000 - 22,000

7500.00 (we do 50% down) would be required to begin work. When
then hit the 15k they have to pay up to the 15k.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake

  Ahoy!
 
  I'm sitting here, pondering on a problem that has just occurred to me. 
  Having a short though intensive period of experience with PHP, I'm now 
  in the process of being swallowed up by a group of web designers. 
  That is, I've been offered a job opportunity.
 
  Now, how do you charge your services? Do you do it on a time-slot 
  basis (seems kind of awkard to me since much PHP code can be reused a 
  l o t!) or do you do it on the basis of the size of projects and 
  whether new code has to be developed etc etc?
 
 What's the matter with re-using the code and charging the same rate for 
 it?  You're a business, and you're supposed to make money.  I currently 
 charge by the hour, but I'm trying whereever possible to move away from 
 hourly rates into fixed price services.  Why?
 
 a) The client knows exactly what to expect in terms of price and result
 b) I don't spend half my days quoting every last detail of a job
 c) I have the opportunity to re-use code over and over, making a 
 PROFIT, rather than braking even all the time
 
 
  Another question is: Since they are the owners of the web servers 
  (also in control of the web admins.), they effectively control the PHP 
  code that I develop. How do I make sure that I'm not just used once 
  for a project and thereafter thrown on the trashbin, i.e. they take 
  the code and keep using it for many other projects without my 
  knowledge. As far as I'm concerned, a proper pay should be for each 
  project that my PHP code goes into. Or do you not agree? Very thankful 
  for your opinions here!
 
 Copyright is the simple answer, but it needs to be
 a) observed by your clients
 b) enforced by you when not observed by clients
 
 You can always compile your scripts, and supply them with compiled 
 (encoded) products, rather than source scripts.  This of course would 
 depend on the copyright agreement you have with your clients.
 
  And what is a proper pay?
 
 There's no decent answer to that -- there's soo many factors to 
 take into consideration, like the market, the economic environment, 
 your skills, your productivity, your client's budget, etc etc.  The 
 only accurate answer is twice as much as half.
 
 
  I would really like to get some tips on how to specify a partnership 
  with these web designers. I know about code obfuscators... but let's 
  get real. They don't come close to hiding code (from these web 
  designers and web admins.) as compiled software is hidden from end 
  users.
 
 Compiling with Zend encoder or similar, as stated above.
 
 
  Perhaps someone here remembers my last post - which was about security 
  of PHP code (from viewing and unauthorized usage). Now, I'm kind of 
  put against the wall here. I want to get to it, i.e. get to the work. 
  But after some bad experiences *grunt*, I'm not willing to get 
  literally squished by blood sucking vampires (*clearing my throat*) 
  later on.
 
 You obviously aren't confident working with these people, so consider 
 NOT working for them.
