Should i use the 'php' command or use curl or lynx or something to open that URL? The Script does a MySQL query, collects data and sends it via E-Mail every monday morning to the recipient. Any help will be appriciated :) Barry -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Dynamic array_merge problem
Hi
if you just want to sort of concatenate your arrays then why not just loop
through the whole thing in order to get the new single array. Need more info
for further consideration. Hope this helps!
for ($i=0;$icount($z);$i++){
$z1[$i] = $z[$i];
}

Hi,
This is the end result I'm trying to get:
$z1 = array_merge($z[0], $z[1], $z[2]);
But what if I don't know how many elements are in $z? I tried this (but it
breaks if there are more than 2 elements in $z):
for ($i=0; $icount($z); $i++)
{
if ($i(count($z)-1))
{
$z1 = array_merge($z[$i], $z[$i+1]);
}
}
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! TIA

Re: [PHP] PDFLib or some free solution?
Hi I have used fpdf quite a lot (http://www.fpdf.org) and have been really impressed with its performance. There are plenty of example scripts on their website and i think you can use it comercially for free although you will have to check that one out.

Re: [PHP] PDFLib or some free solution?
Results may well vary Depending on the complexity of the html pages, but have you tried using the example script 'HTML Conversion'? you could modify this/expand it to fit your needs. worth a try i would of thought.

Can I convert an HTML page to PDF with FPDF? Not real-world pages. But a GPL C utility does exist, htmldoc, which allows to do it and gives good results: http://www.htmldoc.org Does it has anything with building flyer using php and html tags?

Re: [PHP] Date Question
Hi How about doing this in the query string you send to mysql: DATE_FORMAT(fieldname, '%d %m %y') this way you wont have to mess around with the array stuff. for more info look here http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/date-and-time-functions.html Regards Pure Web Solution http://www.purewebsolution.co.uk PHP, MYSQL, Web Design Web Services Tom Chubb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Please can you help me.
