Re: [PHP] store array into session variable and get it back later
how about:
$bci = $_SESSION['bc'];
foreach($bci-crumb as myCrumb)
{
echo br/value['name'] :.$myCrumb['name'].br/;
echo br/value['link'] :.$myCrumb['link'].br/;
echo br/value['id'] : .$myCrumb['id'].br/;
}
You are wanting to loop through the crumbs rather than looping objects.
There is only one object you are sending over through the session and
multiple crumbs right?

array_push($bci,$_SESSION['bc']);

{
echo bci : .$bci[$key]['name'];

how can i get the 'name' value for each row in this session stored array
?
thx.
...
The function you need to look into is called serialize.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.serialize.php
//frank
This is what i did afterall, but when i unserialize it like this way:
$bci = unserialize($_SESSION['bc']);
foreach($bci as $key=$value)
{
echo bci : .$key;
echo br/;
}
i get absolutely the same result as the code below.
in fact $key returns me the 2 variables member of the Class. but not the
value stored inside them.
any idea ?
so here is what i've decided to use:
for ($row=0;$row=count($bci-crumb);$row++)
{
echo br/value[$row]['name'] :
.$bci-crumb[$row]['name'].br/;
echo br/value[$row]['link'] :
.$bci-crumb[$row]['link'].br/;
echo br/value[$row]['id'] : .$bci-crumb[$row]['id'].br/;
}
and it works like a charm.
but how can i optimize it ?
i mean foreach could do the work better ?

I am the email client. In this case which is what I'm trying to figure
out. The script fails with the original string I posted:

Error messages:
error:1408F10B:SSL routines:func(143):reason(267)

I'm using the smtpmailer class and it is trying to execute fsockopen.
So to simplify troubleshooting I used the following code:
if(fsockopen(tls://serverName,25,$errno,$errstr, 30))
{
echo Made it!\n;
}
else
{
echo Nope!\n;
echo $errno.\n;
echo $errstr.\n;
}
I get the above warning from PHP and $errno has 0 as a value and there
is $errstr is empty.
PHP is v5.2.6 and phpinfo shows that ssl and tls support are both
compiled in.
Ah, I see, I misunderstood when you mentioned Evolution. Sorry, I can't
really help you, you're in foreign territory to me :/
Cheers,
Rob.
For posterity and to thank Robert...
I have determined that the mechanism in PHP does not allow you to
specify tls for a connection that initially starts off as a clear text
connection. When you set up sendmail to use tls for smtp auth it allows
a connecting client to send connection details specifying tls at which
point it will start talking tls. PHP expects the connection to be
dedicated tls. So if you specify in sendmail to use a separate port for
tls and you point PHP to that port it works like a champ.
Thanks to Robert for at least giving it a shot. Hopefully this will be
helpful to the next poor soul...

Re: [PHP] Fun with SOAP.
I'm not sure how it looks etc with with soapui but I noticed you mentioning you don't want to mess with nusoap. I've used nusoap for both client and server uses for years and I'm really impressed with how easily it works. Using $soapInstance-request and $soapInstance-response the xml is displayed where you can see how it was created based on the array you fed the instance before sending for your message. It makes troubleshooting much easier for me. That being said I don't send attachments. However just doing a quick google on nusoap attachments (without the quotes) has mention of people sending MIME attachments and one listing an issue with DIME encoded attachments yet another explaining that he solved the DIME encoded issue and referred to wrox book open source webservices page 315 which is an on-line book. Sorry no quick silver bullet, but I would highly recommend looking at nusoap if only as a test.

Re: [PHP] validating mysql bound date

This doesn't completely rule out bogus dates such as 2008-02-30 however.
I think MySQL would just convert that to MAR 1, 2008 anyway...
But if you want that degree of comparison:
list(,$year, $month, $day) = $date_parts;
$unix = mktime(1, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year);
list($y, $m, $d) = date('Y-m-d', $unix);
if ($year != $y || $month != $m || $day != $d){
//handle invalid date input here
}
If you do all of that (which is really 5 lines of code) you should be
pretty sure it's a correct/valid date.

is this on the system where the xml will be sent from? you have to
populate the post fields in the request by using the curl option
CURLOPT_POST to indicate you are posting, and CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, to pass an
array of parameters that will be used as post fields. then the $_POST array
will be populated on the provider system.

still curious if youre looking on the consumer (system sending curl request)
or the provider, (system providing the xml data via response).
Does apache/php place the xml in
some other location for me to access?
depending on how you configure curl, the data can be in different places.
the easiest way (i think) is to use the CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER option. then
the response will be returned from curl_exec() (rather than a boolean
success flag).
here is sample code from a consumer and a provider; theyre up on my server
so you can try using the consumer if you want.

Re: [PHP] reading incoming xml
Thanks for the help Nathan. What I'm looking for though is how to accept and read the incoming XML the way I was sending it in curl. I am currently using that curl mechanism on the cli to connect to another remote XML server successfully. I want to keep that side of the equation the same. I need to find out if I can access the incoming data on the server side. I don't need or want to use curl on the server side. I just want to handle the incoming XML. How does SOAP and XML-RPC get to the incoming XML? Is the incoming SOAP and XML-RPC packages arriving in html posts? I tried looking at the nusoap code to determine this to no avail.

RE: [PHP] reading incoming xml
This is what I was looking for. Thank you. I could not change the
client since that client is being used for other servers in its current
configuration. All I needed was a way to get to the XML string coming
in.
$postText = trim(file_get_contents('php://input');
worked perfectly. Now that I have this blob of XML I can give it to
simpleXML or another parser I was recently shown to work with it. I'm
surprised it was so difficult to find. $GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA']
was empty by the way and that I'd seen before.
Also, sorry if I threw anyone off by referring to the other server the
client works with as an XML server. I only referred to it as such
because it is a server that accepts XML input and responds with XML

You can get what you post either with:

$postText = $GLOBALS[HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA];
About HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA http://us2.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php
Read the notes here http://us2.php.net/variables.predefined
It should be noted that $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA only exists if the encoding type
of
the data is -not- the default of application/x-www.form-urlencoded, and so, to
accessing raw post data from an HTTP form requires setting enctype= in your
HTML.
So, if $RAW_POST_DATA doesn't exist, it is because you should be able to use
$_POST (unless you set PHP to always populate raw post data in php.ini). The
preferred method is, however, to read 'php://input'
Then after you get the XML body, you must use one of the XML extensions
available in PHP to parse the XML data (search for it as it's not part of this
help pack ;) ).

hmm, it looks to me like you want to post a bunch of raw data to the
server. im not sure exactly how to do that w/ the php curl functions...
everything ive seen uses CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS to supply an associative
array
of data to be posted. in this case you could easily send you data across
by
choosing a name for the index, something like 'postdata', anything will
do,
then it will be accessible on the system youre posting to via
$_POST['postdata'].
also, inlooking at your usage of CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, i dont believe
youre
using it correctly, i think youre just supposed to put a string
representing the desired http method in there, so something like 'HEAD',
'PUT', or in this case 'POST'. then you would supply the data as i said
earlier, using CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS. so in all, i think something like
this
would work for you,
and also, in reading the warning about CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, you might
just
go with CURLOPT_POST = true, since you arent using an obscure http
method.
im not sure exactly how to determine if the server supports this method
or
not. anyway, i found this in 'man curl_easy_setopt' (thats the manpage
for
the c function php uses for the CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST option).
Many people have wrongly used this option to replace the
entire request with their own, including multiple headers and POST
contents.
While that might
work in many cases, it will cause libcurl to send
invalid
requests and it could possibly confuse the remote server badly. Use
CURLOPT_POST and CUR-
LOPT_POSTFIELDS to set POST data. Use CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER to
replace or extend the set of headers sent by libcurl. Use
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION to change
HTTP version.

[PHP] accessing one object's attribute from another
Hi all, I've be developing with a structured approach for a long time
and am working at improving my site by adding some classes etc. I
however, am running into an odd thing that I can't figure out what a
reasonable search syntax would yield the desired solution. The problem
is as follows:
class a {
var $thisVar;
...
}
class b {
function hello()
{
echo $first-thisVar;
}
}
$first = new a();
$first-thisVar = world;
$second = new b();
$second-hello();
There are a number of variables and methods that are common throughout
the user's session that I'm storing in object $first. Class b has
nothing in common with a except that it needs a couple of the variables
stored in the object that is hanging around in the session.
Is $first-thisVar the wrong way to reference that variable? How can I
get to it?
TIA,
Larry

$first doesn't exist to $second - you need to make it so it knows what
it is.
class b {
var $first;
function __construct($first) {
$this-first = $first;
}
function hello() {
echo $this-first-thisVar;
}
}
then you:
$first = new a();
$second = new b($first);
$second-hello();

key...
foreach($multiarray as $key=$subArray)
Now it displays as it previously did where $subArray is concerned. Is
there something I'm missing here? Was I the only person not using
keys?

something like $data =
array('thisvar'=$myFirstVar,'thatvar'=$mySecondVar,'1othervar'=$myLastVar
). Later when the variable names are cycled through on a loop the following

Something else in your code is messing you up if you cannot change the value after setting it in the first place. This happens all the time in my code as my client makes decisions along the way. Try a small test creating a session variable, displaying it, changing it, and redisplaying it. If it does not show the change, post the test code so we might be able to tell why it fails.

[PHP] scope problem
Apparently I'm having some kind of meltdown here. Can anyone explain the
logic behind why the following variable has the original value and how I can
pull/push the value to access it at the end?
while loop
{
$variable = 100;
while loop
{
switch($othervar)
{
case 1:
$variable = $variable + 100;
break;
case 2:
$variable = $variable + 200;
break;
case 3:
$variable = $variable + 300;
break;
}
echo $variable.br;
}
echo brThe final value is .$variable.br;
}
This gives values something to the tune of...
200
400
700
100
I usually have variables set outside of a while loop that increment based on
the contents of the loop and I could swear that they hold the value on the
other side of the loop. I don't usually use break; in my scripts unless I'm
using switch. However, I would think that if using break was throwing me,
that the value wouldn't print on each cycle of the loop.

Toby's solution still holds in this scenario. Actually exactly has you have
rem'ed out. You get back two components to the array, first array[0] holds
the concatenated string you made with the while loop and the second array[1]
holds the total number of result rows from your query.

As you can see with my ammeded example I am already returning and array.
I thought I could cast the result $num into the $GLOBAL array for use later
but that dose not seem to work or be do able.
I could relicate the function and call it something else say MyFunc2() but
that seems a waste of code and mysql connection load when I am already
retrieving the var I want to use.

Hi List,
I have a function that makes a call to mysql based on certain vars.
---example
Function MyFunc(){
if(isset($_POST[var])){
$sql = mysql_query(select * from table_name where field=\$_POST[var]\
); $returnsomething =blah blah; } return $returnsomething; }
And that all works fine no probs here but.
I want to use a result somewhere in my script that is not returned by
return. Let me show you...
---example
Function MyFunc(){
if(isset($_POST[var])){
$sql = mysql_query(select * from table_name where field=\$_POST[var]\
);
$num = mysql_num_rows($sql); // I want to use this result outside this
function.
$returnsomething =blah blah;
}
return $returnsomething;
}
So $num contains a number that I want to use outside the function which is
not covered by return.
I know return stops a script and returns what I want it to return but how do
I send out of the function the var I want.
I have tried $GLOBAL[var]=$num; but that dont work, but I thought I
would'nt anyway just tried it and yes I know I have to declare it inside my
new function using global $var; to use it.
So I ask is this achiveable or how can I do this.
Thank you in advance

RE: [PHP] Re: Session expiry issues in IE, still.
Interesting point. After all, to remove a cookie you simply give it an expire time in the past. However, it should only explain the lack of cookie receipt. Since the user is able to surf for a period of time on the site before getting the boot, I wouldn't think it would apply. In the last post it sounded like it is not at 5 min but rather expiring very speradically. I bet there is a particular page that is killing them. Perhaps one of the re-writes or something. I would take IE and start traversing the site to see if you can't localize it to one area when it happens.(or more in particular where you just came from when it dropped).

RE: [PHP] Submit Button Refresh Problem?
we need more code than ? makeArrays(); ?...
By the looks of that alone, it appears that you have that inserted into the
html somewhere around the submit button. If that is the case, the function
will run every time you load the page. You have to set a trigger to
determine whether it should run or not. For instance, the form in which the
submit button is in can have a variable such as input type=hidden
name=executeRand value=1 so that when you hit submit, that value is sent to
the target of the form, (which I take it is this same page). The code
around the function in php could be...
if($executeRand == 1){ makeArrays(); }
You'll need a second form around your other submit along with a variable for
it to send etc.
Hope that helps

Subject: [PHP] Submit Button Refresh Problem?
I have a php file that contains all the functions that I run on the page
that is displayed, self-contained.
The main function is ? makeArrays(); ?
I am invoking that function with a Submit button OnClick event.
Whenever I click the button, the page refreshes and the function runs just
fine displaying a dynamically generated random sequence of numbers.
The problem is the page refresh itself.
When the page first loads the function runs and it shouldn't, the display
should be blank until the button is clicked.
This is a problem because I have another button that will be coded to write
the data generated to a database, at present that function is empty, however
when I click that button the page refreshes again and the number data
changes.
How do I keep the page from refreshing on load and apparently self clicking
the form button, and how do I keep the page from refreshing and running the
'makearrays' function when I click the 'writedata' function? When the
'writedata' function is invoked from a button click only that function
should be called and the data from the previous page should be returned to
the page again (same).. i.e. the random number sequence does not change.
Thanks!

RE: [PHP] PHP, Server-Side?
You can create a soap server. I have one set up, the client side runs a
function which is translated into xml sent to the other server (in my case
over ssl) the other server translates to php, executes the function and
returns the results. You create the actual code for the function on the
server and give the client details on what the function does and what data
it requires. If you build both it is very easy. The client has no other
options but to run the function name while supplying the data. ex.
server...
function pullLatestReport($login,$password,$howfarback)
{
check db for authentication...
if auth correct to run this function run
do queries nec. for request return result.
else
return error
}
As you can see the server has total control over what gets executed, soap is
designed to be platform independant. .net, java etc. can be used as the
client. Of course that is only a added benefit since you are making both
ends.
I use nusoap which is all php and isn't too hard to figure out.

$errorMessage = some error;
goBack($HTTP_REFERER,$errorMessage);

I'd have to test the $HTTP_REFERER part, but I don't see why it wouldn't
work. I like the die() in there so I can just use an if statement at the

Subject: [PHP] urlencoding.
Let me give a quick background. I am a very experienced programmer but
I haven't done much php and only a little web development in perl. I am
now creating a web site with Apache, php and MySQL.
I am having the user fill out a form and then save the data in MySQL.
Before I save the data I do a few checks and if there is a problem I do
a redirect back to the form and send all the data back so they don't
have to fill out the whole form again. Here is some sample code I use
to build my redirect url
$UserID = $_POST['UserID'];
$Password1 = $_POST['Password1'];
$Password2 = $_POST['Password2'];
$Email = $_POST['Email'];
$FName = $_POST['FName'];
$LName = $_POST['LName'];
do checking of data here.
if(there is a problem with the data){
$ErrorMsg = some error;
$redirectStr = $httpHost/CreateAccount.php?;
$redirectStr .= UserID= . urlencode(stripslashes($UserID));
$redirectStr .= Password= . urlencode(stripslashes($Password));
$redirectStr .= Email= . urlencode(stripslashes($Email));
$redirectStr .= FName= . urlencode(stripslashes($FName));
$redirectStr .= LName= . urlencode(stripslashes($LName));
$redirectStr .= ErrorMsg= . urlencode($ErrorMsg);
header(Location: $redirectStr);
exit;
}
My problem is that any field that contains a double quote, all data
after the first double quote is missing from the form field. When I
look at the long URL I do see a %22 where the are supposed to be, and
all other data is there too.
Any Ideas? If there is a better way to do this feel free to suggest a
change in my whole method here. Just as a note validation of the UserID
has to be done on the server side, to check for duplicates in the MySQL db.
I would also welcome insight on standard techniques to make sure the
user isn't trying to break the code by sending bogus data. I am already
checking that the data isn't longer than I am expecting.

RE: [PHP] Setting a 'life-time' clock to a displayed information
The timer on the client browser would have to be done in some client-side language. On the server side you can place any order information that is out with a supplier in a db field along with the time it was pulled. When the next supplier submits a request, the db is parsed for pending jobs whose time has gone over the 30 minutes. If it has, then provide the same information to this supplier and update the record to show who it is out with. If there are none that have gone over the 30 then generate a new set for this supplier and record the time it was provided and the supplier it was given to. When the supplier publishes the completed information, check to make sure it was in time, if it was in time remove the entry from the db so that it isn't given back out. If it is too late you can generate an error page and start back over if he still wants to try. Note there may be some additional steps necessary to make sure that two suppliers aren't trying get an expired entry at the same instance where there is a fraction of a second between checking the time on the record and taking the record where both check the time and take the same record. You will probably have to use locking on the db to avoid this.

RE: [PHP] How do I protect downloadable files?
You could have your authorization info in the mysql db including file locations that are stored along with the authorization level necessary to download them. If the person is authenticated to download the file, the php script uses the file location info from the db to open the file and generate the headers necessary to start the download. This way the end user never has to have direct access to the download directory and you don't have to copy the file into a temporary directory.

I would go for the 3rd alternative. There are several ways to
stream the file with the use of headers.
This way you can validate the user securely with your logon system,
and you can place the files outside the viewable web content.
Typically oputside your www / public_html folder.
I use this myself in an application I use, streaming files at 50MB
does not use alot of resources at all, atleast not the way I use.
My use for the script is to serve high resolution images to several
customers, often TIF images up to 50MB and larger.
Heres the code I use :
$distribution= filepathonserver;
if ($fd = fopen ($distribution, r)){
$size=filesize($distribution);
$fname = basename ($distribution);
header(Pragma: );
header(Cache-Control: );
header(Content-type: application/octet-stream);
header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\.$fname.\);
header(Content-length: $size);

print $buffer;

[PHP] using PDI to pull from data already read into a variable?
I have written scripts to upload pdf files into mysql. I have the scripts created to access those files and produce them for the user on the fly. All well and good. Now I have a need to access one of those files and insert its contents into a new pdf report. I have purchased the PDFlib+PDI and want to pull the data from the variable returned from mysql. However, the function for openning the pdf document to be inserted is looking for a file on disk to access. Has anyone done this without writing the document to disk first and then openning it from there? It seems that pulling it from the db in a query and then handing it to the PDI functions would be less intensive than writing it out, parsing it, and then ultimately deleting it from disk again. Any help would be greatly appreciated... TIA Larry -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] mysql load_file retreival
Thanks for the help. I went through a troubleshooting phase that started
with writing the raw data from the mysql client to disk. Checking the size
it was apparent that it was much too small. I tried running my script with
a smaller pdf and it worked. It turns out that blob has a max of 64k. A
tad small for general use for holding graphics. I changed to a mediumblob
which is either 12 or 16 meg, I'm not sure off the top of my head now but,
that is plenty for my needs. I did end up changing the behaviour of my
script though. Instead of writing to a file and using load_file, I recieved
the file on upload, base64 encoded it and stored it directly to the db.
Then on retrieval, unencoded and handed it off with content type, size,
name, and application information in the header. It works very nicely.
Thanks again...

RE: [PHP] mysql load_file retreival
I was following the example given on the php site that someone was using to
break down large files. They base64 encoded the file while reading it in,
broke it into pieces (while inputing the pieces into the db), then
re-animated it so to speak afterwards by reversing the process. I get the
impression that encoding the file will leave it in a state that is palatable
to the database (no quotes,commas,slashes etc) and it seemed that since the
example worked that way that I'd follow suit. Plus, if I decided that the
file sizes should be split up, I could ultimately simply change a line of
code or so and split it up. It is only from a lack of thorough
understanding of exactly what characters can be found in a pdf file when
viewed as a single string for the database that I don't step out and design
something of which I have not seen an example. Plus I figure that I should
learn from people out there of whom many have spent many hours beating their
head against a wall looking for a solution and are later willing to share
that as an example to save others time.

acrobat. This is seemless with Mozilla. However, on IE it hangs with the
message Getting File information:. If you try to save it you get another
error. I have read some information indicating that the problem is with the
length parameter not being sent. However, the page I'm using was off an
example someone provided and it already has what seems to be the fix for
page length. The code that creates the file is as follows...
$p = PDF_new();
if(PDF_open_file($p, ) == 0) {
die(Error: .PDF_get_errmsg($p));
}
...body goes here...
PDF_end_page($p);
PDF_close($p);
$buf = PDF_get_buffer($p);
$len = strlen($buf);
header(Content-type: application/pdf);
header(Content-Length: $len);
header(Content-Disposition: inline; filename=filename.pdf);
print $buf;
PDF_delete($p);
Again, this is only a problem with m$ IE. I know this is one of the largest
toolkits (PDFlib) in use for creating well defined printable documents so I
can't believe that this is not a common problem or that I am doing something
really wrong.
Someone on PDFlib's mailing list once mentioned sending the document for
download via chunks instead of getting the length except he wrote
something in C/C++ to accomplish it in his app. Is there some way to tell
the browser to accept via chunks in php? Does the above header look right
for IE?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

[PHP] php temp table question
Does anyone know whether the use of persistent connections with php will allow a temp table created by a script to linger around and cause a problem with the next execution of the script when it tries to create the temp table again? Also if it does present a problem with the next script execution trying to create the temp table again, if I drop the temp table at the end of the script will I still have problems if the script is run by two client in tandem? For instance two people connect, both hit the script at about the same time. One script creates the temp table and before it can drop the table the second script tries to create the table. Will it see the table created by the other script? Again the use of persistent connections would be a the heart of this I would think. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] PHP with Frames (cont.)
Are you trying to access variables between frames or just get a php script to run when it is one frame. I have php pages running in frames in a number of places. You could not access variables between the frames though. You would have to use a client side script to do that. You could have something like javascript deal with passing variable around on the client's browser and then ultimately post the result back to the server in a form etc. -Original Message- From: rich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 27, 2003 2:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] PHP with Frames (cont.) No, he's right - this is an issue. Do variables persist between PHP files? In the attached scripts I have a login page which directs the user, on a sucessful login, to a front page which is a frameset. The login.php opens a connection to a MySQL database ($connection) but once the browser has been re-directed to the frame-root.html page this variable is no longer available.

[PHP] else needed?
On if statements, I periodically don't want anything to happen if the
requisite is not met. In most cases just writing the statement in the
format if (this) { do that; } and nothing more will work. However, I
periodically get weird results with this and found the only fix was to do
a... if (this) {do that;}else{echo ;}
I try using continue in the else but get errors about using continue on
level 1 or something to that affect. I'm assuming that continue is only
used in loops.
It's amazing how far I can code things without these little foundation
level bits of information ;-)

[PHP] Client script opensource plea
This, most certainly OT, is a plea for fellow developers oriented in OpenSource solutions to help resolve a problem in case you have dealt with it before. I have written a PHP app that uses function keys at times to help speed data processing for my client VIA javascript. This app works fine when the client is using IE or Netscape on the windows platform. However, when the client is on Linux, the function keys are not being captured on Mozilla or Netscape. I presented this problem in my Javascript mailing list and on the RedHat mailing list and no one seems to have had any experience dealing with it and consequently I haven't a work around. My apologies for presenting a clearly OT question, but I know there are a ton of experienced developers here and I reaching for someone who might have dealt with this. Larry S.

[PHP] php mysql array question
Is there any php function to pull a query into an array?

[PHP] mysql field getting cut off

It ends up with St. (I'm not sure if the period makes it). I have verified that the entire statement arrives at the php script in the variable $field and I have used the mysql client to give the same command with St. Petersburg, FL as the value and it accepts it without a problem.

That, indirectly, is exactly what happened. I have a subsequent screen for modifying the results.

[PHP] table cell space under image in IE
Has anyone had to address this problem before? I've created a table and placed an image inside. The image is around 12 pxl high and when the table is displayed in Mozilla the cell border is up against the image on all sides. On IE however, the top of the image is up against the cell border but the bottom has aprox 10pxl of space. It is only there with the images, only under the image, and only in IE (I've only checked v6). If anyone has seen this and has an idea of how to fix it, PLEASE let me know. I've tried setting cellspacing=0, cellpadding=0, and setting spacing to a range of sized to see the effect and the smallest size it will move to is approx 10pxls below the bottom of the image.

be displaying a space or whitespace for some reason, whereas other browsers
will ignore it.

You don'y say which cell has the problem but, apart from placing the closing
td right after the image try to move the closing form tag out from the
table. At least in IE, /FORM _allways_ produces that extra space no matter
what you do unless you use style sheets to set the form's bottom-margin
yourself.

[PHP] deciperhing oop
Can someone who is used to using php oop help me figure out why this fails?
I know there are probably a thousand classes already designed to do this and
probably 100 times more efficient, but this is how I learn. From what I've
read this should work but there is obviously something I'm missing.
Quick problem description:

test successfully connecting to db. Error is displayed as...
Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL - Link

}
}
}
$dbn = new dbConnect(localhost,3306,bob,hjhyt4kl5);
$dbn-setDbase(main);
So why can't I use $db? Isn't the statement $this-db=$db making it
available to the setDbase function?

Thank you everyone for helping. I didn't know you have to put $this- in
front of all variables in the class. You learn something new every day ( I
thought you only needed to use that once to make the variable available
everywhere in the class up till now).

the second argument in the mysql_select_db call in not in scope.
you should be using $this-db instead of $db

Subject: [PHP] deciperhing oop
Can someone who is used to using php oop help me figure out why this
fails?
I know there are probably a thousand classes already designed to do this
and
probably 100 times more efficient, but this is how I learn. From what
I've
read this should work but there is obviously something I'm missing.
Quick problem description:
Trying to set up class to connect to mysql db. Already used a procedural
test successfully connecting to db. Error is displayed as...
Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL - Link
resource in /var/www/html/oop.php on line 67
Database Selection to main failed.
Code:
Class dbConnect
{
var $machine;
var $port;
var $user;
var $password;
var $query;
var $result;
var $dbase;
var $db;
var $sel;
function dbConnect($machine,$port,$user,$password)
{
$this-machine = $machine;
$this-port = $port;
$this-user = $user;
$this-password = $password;
$db = mysql_pconnect ($machine,$user,$password)
if (!$db)
{
die (Initial connection to DB failed.)
}
$this-db = $db;
}
function setDbase($dbase)
{
$this-dbase = $dbase;
$sel = mysql_select_db($dbase,$db);
if(!$db)
{
die (Database Selection to $dbase failed.);
}
}
}
$dbn = new dbConnect(localhost,3306,bob,hjhyt4kl5);
$dbn-setDbase(main);
So why can't I use $db? Isn't the statement $this-db=$db making it
available to the setDbase function?
