[PHP] Re: A really wacky design decision
u increment after! asigning, so far so good, but for math reasons the
interpreter has to keep in mind the 123 you want to assign before increment
to the same var.
this is absolutely correct what php does here.
$num = ++$num; would print 124
the same like
$num++;
on the other hand this is just bullshit I would release any programmer using
that type of code.

Re: [PHP] Where's my memory going?!
Hi Philip,
before u start running arround and taking ur hand on major changes I would
like u to concider the following:
the way u use the memory_get_usage() is incomplete use the function like
memory_get_usage( true ) if this is set the REAL SIZE OF MEMORY ALLOCATED
FROM THE SYSTEM is shown.
some posters gave u little winks, like has the garbage collection been run?
freeing the results is important, it means the memory is available for other
data, but it does not necesarily mean it is reported just a step later as
free! u are running on concurrent os.
the only way u can test that is in real world. clean the whole application
with the free_result_set and see the effect.
I'm personaly not shure if the memory allocated for result sets for MySQL
are reported as used by PHP anyway. It might be that the amount of memory is
not shown as PHP used even if u set real_usage = true. it is something to
test.
I think the way u tested the effect of freeing the results is just wrong.
hope that helps

Hi all.
I have a script that opens a socket, creates a persistent
mysql
connection, and loops to receive data. When the amount of
specified
data has been received, it calls a class which processes the
data
and
inserts it into the database. Each iteration, I unset/
destruct that
class I call. However, the script keeps going up in memory and
eventually runs out, causing a fatal error. Any thoughts on
where to
start to see where I'm losing my memory?
Thanks in advance,
~Philip
I am not using mysql_free_result(). Is that highly recommended
by all?
Thanks,
~Philip
I took your suggestions and made sure to clean up after myself.
I'm
running into something that *appears* to be a bug with
mysql_free_result(). Here's a snippet of my db class.
?php
class db {
function fetch ($sql, $assoc=false)
{
echo \nMemory usage before query: . number_format
(memory_get_usage ()) . \n;
$resultSet = $this-query($sql);
echo Memory usage after query: . number_format
(memory_get_usage ()) . \n;
if (!$assoc) { $result = $this-fetch_row($resultSet); }
else {
$result = $this-fetch_array($resultSet);
echo Memory usage after fetch: . number_format
(memory_get_usage ()) . \n;
}
$this-freeResult($resultSet);
echo Memory usage after free: . number_format
(memory_get_usage ()) . \n;
return $result;
}
function freeResult ($result)
{
if (is_resource ($result)) {
if (!mysql_free_result ($result)) { echo Memory
could not
be freed\n; }
}
unset ($result); // For good measure
}
function fetch_row ($set) {
return mysql_fetch_row ($set);
}
function fetch_array ($set) {
return mysql_fetch_array ($set, MYSQL_ASSOC);
}
}
// I seem to be losing memory when I call this
$db-fetch($sql);
?
The result I get with this is...
Memory usage before query: 6,406,548
Memory usage after query: 6,406,548
Memory usage after fetch: 6,406,548
Memory usage after free: 6,406,572
As you may notice, the memory actually goes UP after the
*freeing* of
memory. Why is this happening?! What have I done wrong? Is this
a bug?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
First off, my question would be, is your query actually working?
Because I
would imagine that if you were getting results back from the DB,
that
the amount
of memory being used would increase between step 1 2.
Check to make sure that you are getting results.
I'm confident the queries are working (there's many of them and I
know
the data they're returning is correct), but they may not always
[PHP] Re: turning off a E_STRICT or fix for a bad coding habit
Hi Viraj, well from the viewpoint of the PHP developers, it depends if u allow to extend a class before it is been declared. If it is allowed that way, then yes you are right none of the sniped should create an error. If u study the bug report, u will see that the class is extended before it is declared. If u have to declare a calss before u can extend it and it is set as a rule, then yes the interpreter should fire an error. I think in your code must be something similar to this, extention before declaration. I'm not shure but if PHP goes towards variable declaration feature ( PHP 6 ? ), the result would be that extention of a class before declaration will be prohibited. Right now it seems to me that the interpreter is allowing extention before declaration, however takes the first overwriting method as its declaration and of course that would fire the error you have. I personally have no such problems, as since ever I try to program in the way strict languages like JAVA require and found it as best practice. That means e.g. declaration strict before extention/use of functions and classes. I also avoid even NOTICE messages. One last thing, an entry in the PHP buglist doesn't mean it is a bug. It would be helpfull to see the complete code firing this error, but I assume its a bit large to sniip here. ralph_def...@yahoo.de viraj kali...@gmail.com wrote in message news:74721f460909270203s723480d3u361ca9a18da43...@mail.gmail.com... just upgraded to php 5.2.10-2.2 on debian now i get this error [2048] Declaration of form::bindData() should be compatible with that of db::bindData() i use __autoload to load these classes.. found this bug report http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=46851, i thought it's this new E_STRICT bit and tried to turn it off, but didn't help. this code was working perfect before.. even with this error.. it works. any idea about a workaround? or some reading suggestions! many thanks ~viraj -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

What you're asking sounds like you want to *edit* an existing PDF via a PHP class, No, I just want to write on top of it. And that was possible with FPDI/FPDF, but I had to abandon those as they did not support Japanese.

Just a quick question.
Say I have a column in my database that could contain NULLS, empty spaces,
or an actual value.
If I do:
$my_query = SELECT my_column FROM my_database WHERE 1 = 1;
$my_result = ifx_query($my_query, $connect_id);
while($row = ifx_fetch_row($my_result)) {
$my_column = trim($row['my_column']);
if ($my_column != ) {
echo Test;

}
The way PHP assigns the query results to the $my_column variable,
wouldn't;
if ($my_column != ) not do anything for the rows that contained NULLS
or
empty spaces?

Re: [PHP] Re: session.gc_maxlifetime
finaly we went with a custom cooky handling, however the customers requirements where two days. if u are shure that the server is still the same hardware like it has been 6 years ago then it might be some client stuff, however if there are other applications, pages running (virtual servers) then it would still be to consider. mamory and resource management is deep os. again I wouldn't trust for that amount of session livetime. I dont think, putting it down to three hours would help much. and of course, it could be client side also.

Please sign-on again. NOTE: Your browser may also limit secure connection time, and automatically log you out independent of our timeout procedure. that could be referring to browsers timing out an ssl connection. or perhaps the cookie? btw: when you said in your email you wouldn't trust a long gc_maxlifetime, and you would only use a cookie-based solution for long session. did you mean that you wouldn't trust php's cookie-based session handler? and you would use a custom handler instead?

Re: [PHP] Re: session.gc_maxlifetime
Hi Tom, in sometimes 2001 I did have incidences with those things, and as I remember over the past years there where some trouble with operating systems and stuff. This part is very deep inside the os. I would expect that this is still to consider. I also would check, if this occurs on very busy/low memory server. If I would programm the garbage collection clean up part, and if the server is about to run out of memory, I would kill sessions being longer time idle even when they are not yet as old as it is set in the gc_maxlifetime. This would be far better then shutting down the whole server just because there a 100 of idle sessions waiting to get used again. as u mention a maxlivetime of 6h I would bet, that this is the problem. I would not trust such a long lifetime at all. If sessions have to be active such a long time, I would see only cooky based solutions let me know, what u did investigate on this. ralph_def...@yahoo.de Tom Worster f...@thefsb.org wrote in message news:c6deae55.12cae%...@thefsb.org... thank you, Ralph! i'm going to be bold and assume that tom at punkave dot com is right despite that the report was discarded. i got a complaint from a client about some users reporting being logged out with rather short periods of inactivity. but session.gc_maxlifetime is set to 6 hours so i don't think that's the source of the problem.

The second is to place short lines of text into specific locations on the page (A4 size). I know these two functions must be dead simple, and yet I am lost in the documentation.

What version of PHP are you using? Your example should work.
Torben
5.2.9.
what version does it work in?
i shamefully beg your pardon, lars. i was sure i tested the example but
it's
clear to me now i either didn't or i made a mistake. end($o)-a IS php
syntax! so - may follow a function (or method, i guess) call.
but let me give you a more different example:
$a and $b are normally both objects, each with various members including a
prop q, but sometimes $a is false. i want the q of $a if $a isn't false,
otherwise that of $b.
($a ? $a : $b)-q // is not php, afaik
before you suggest one, i know there are simple workarounds.
but mine is a theoretical question about syntax, not a practical one. i'm
exploring php's syntactic constraints on the - operator in contrast to,
say, the + or . operators. and in contrast to other languages.
for example, the . in js seems more generally allowed than - (or, for
that
matter, []) in php. programmers (especially using jquery) are familiar
with
using . after an expression that evaluates to an object, e.g.
body
p id=thepara class=top x23 indentMy x class number is
span id=num/span/p
div id=mandatory style=border: solid red 1px/div
script type=text/javascript
document.getElementById('num').innerText =
( ( document.getElementById('optional')
|| document.getElementById('mandatory')
).appendChild(document.getElementById('thepara'))
.className.match(/x(\d+)/) || [0,'absent']
)[1]
/script
/body
which shows . after objects, method calls and expressions (as well as the
[]
operator applied to an expression).
do we just live without in phpville or am i missing something?
and while i'm at it, and using my original error, how come...
function o() { return (object) array('q'=7); }
echo o()-q; // is ok syntax, but
function a() { return array('q'=5); }
echo a()['q']; // isn't?

Does the xml string get passed to htmlentities() or a similar

The regex that would match a line containing only whitespace would
look
like this:

The PHP_EOL is system dependent. If you want a solution that works on
every
type of file you have to code it yourself. Here you have a function made
some time ago.
Maybe you can improve it.
If you want the result as a text format you can implode( PHP_EOL,
$buffer )
Hope this helps you.
function explode($code)
{
$lines = array();
$buffer = '';
for($i=0, $len = strlen($code); $i$len; ++$i)
switch( $code{$i} )
{
case \r:
case \n:
if( $i+1 == $len )
break 2;
if( \r == ($next = $code{ $i+1 }) || \n == $next )
{
++$i;
}
$lines[] = $buffer;
$buffer = '';

Re: [PHP] how to strip empty lines out of a txt using preg_replace()
and this is the PHP_EOL solution:
$dtd = preg_replace( /[. PHP_EOL . ]+/, . PHP_EOL . , $dtd);
dont ask me why two empty strings are needed to surround the PHP_EOL but its
does it.
Why this works? we have got an INTERPRETER here any \n is transtlated into
0x0D an \r into 0x0A so the pattern does not reach prce as '\n' hehe

Re: [PHP] Reading remote files
I think, this also depends on the oprating system. I would say that any development team would avoid loading file type data into fast memory. These problems are all over applications. From the PHP point of view, it could mean that file data have to be read into memory, but it could not mean that the data have to be necceserily in a memory chip. as smart as oprerating systems, apache and PHP are designed, I would expect some disk cashing mechanism for large data block fom the developers. so if u did not have any problem yet, do define a test with the average of traffic u are expecting and see what happens. I see a pretty good chance that there will be not so much a problem. ralph_def...@yahoo.de Grace Shibley shibl...@gmail.com wrote in message news:a4d1d5260909011055o55689189n4e42af2e319f...@mail.gmail.com... Are you actually having a problem with memory, or simply that you have to transfer it over a network first? Depending on the protocol used, you may be able to read it in chunks, but those chunks will still have to be copied to the computer that is reading it before it can be processed. The other option is to run a process in the computer where the file resides and only send the results over the network. Bob McConnell We haven't actually had a problem yet, but we don't want to run a risk of a server crash. We want to be able to call this PHP function from a standalone application that will get that particular chunk of data specified and save it to the local drive. But, so far, we have been told that any function we use (fopen/fread, file_get_contents) will first load the entire file into memory. As far as I know then, HTTP doesn't support entering files at points specified by a remote user. A request is made for a file, and the server determines how to break it up in order to send.

Try putting all of that inside of a headers_sent(){} block. If nothing
is displayed, it means that you've already sent something to the
browser, so the headers have already been sent and the extra ones you
are sending do nothing. This sort of thing is shown in your error log
also.
If you still get the tif displayed as text, then are you sure that the
tif is valid?

The URL that I'm requesting looks like: http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=[Search Subject]key=[google maps key]sensor=falseoutput=jsonoe=utf8 If I pass a space (0x20) in the search subject, I get a 400 error back (as it should be).

I do parse css files through php
If you state that they have not PHP to parse, then why parse them? It is
a waist!
Problem: css files are loaded into the browsers but not interpreted or
used
on RAW HTML files no php included. The html files are produced with
phpDocumentor 1.4.2. IE6 uses parts of the css files loaded to display
the
page, Firefox NOT AT ALL.
I think it might be possible that wamp throughs some wierd characters
into
the css files or is the header type a problem? It looks like parsing the
css
through the php engine changes the header of the css to text/html. this
would explain why IE6 can use them. on the other hand firebug shows the
loaded css, indicates however that no css is available.
as an reverse check I did load the html files direktly from the disk
with
file:/// ... and the css are interpreted perfectly. so the source of the
problem is wamp.
it seems that the @importcsss does the biggest problem.it creates a 404
error file not found
it seems creating dynamic css files got some secrets involved with the
wamp.
I'm using this concept since ages on linux with no problem.
on the @includecss it seems that the search for files are changing to
the
php include path or something.
any idear what to check?
is important for my work to create css dynamicly
My suggestion would be to have php run a script using the
auto_prepend_file ini option
; Automatically add files before or after any PHP document.
auto_prepend_file = fix_headers.php
auto_append_file =
Then, in a script called fix_headers.php, somewhere in your path I hope,
you have this.

# The following regex is completely untested. It is meant to
$ext = strtolower(preg_replace('|^.*\.([^.]+)$|',
$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']));
if ( 'css' === $ext ) {
header('Content-Type: text/css');
}
?
Another way to get around it is to have apache instruct PHP to change, and
output, the correct
content type.

Tender/Tender Docs BAA Works Terms v1.1 (22.05.08).pdf
Tender/Tender Docs Contents of Volumes 1 and 2.pdf
etc.
I'm trying to do this at work (php is a hobby and this is the first
time I've tried to use it in my electrical engineering job) in notepad
without any code highlighting, etc. and tearing my hair out to try and
avoid going through the CD manually!
Could anybody please help or let me know which function I need to read
up on? I've tried countless searches on array formatting, etc and not
getting anywhere.
Thanks in advance,

Re: [PHP] Re: unset() something that doesn't exist
sorry I mixed 'set' with 'given' and if my mistake did prevent all the smarter guys to give u an answer I'm sorry too. I hope not to be too limited to give u an answer well, think about how PHP 5 works. $a e.g. is a REFENCE to some memory where the variable resides. so the interpreter running into this unset() statement searches the reference table to find the pointer named $a to delete its name from the reference table. it doesn't find it, but it's ment to unset it anyway, why should be complained about it. in the next line the $a is not set, as u want it. mmmh nice as well that nobody told me direcly that I mixed set with given ralph_def...@yahoo.de ps.: great behavior, I think for less then 10% of the world population is english the native language, such a behavior prevents very good and smart programmers arround the world to share their knowledge.

apache 2.2.11

I do parse css files through php
If you state that they have not PHP to parse, then why parse them? It is
a waist!
Problem: css files are loaded into the browsers but not interpreted or
used
on RAW HTML files no php included. The html files are produced with
phpDocumentor 1.4.2. IE6 uses parts of the css files loaded to display
the
page, Firefox NOT AT ALL.
I think it might be possible that wamp throughs some wierd characters
into
the css files or is the header type a problem? It looks like parsing the
css
through the php engine changes the header of the css to text/html. this
would explain why IE6 can use them. on the other hand firebug shows the
loaded css, indicates however that no css is available.
as an reverse check I did load the html files direktly from the disk
with
file:/// ... and the css are interpreted perfectly. so the source of the
problem is wamp.
it seems that the @importcsss does the biggest problem.it creates a 404
error file not found
it seems creating dynamic css files got some secrets involved with the
wamp.
I'm using this concept since ages on linux with no problem.
on the @includecss it seems that the search for files are changing to
the
php include path or something.
any idear what to check?
is important for my work to create css dynamicly
My suggestion would be to have php run a script using the
auto_prepend_file ini option
; Automatically add files before or after any PHP document.
auto_prepend_file = fix_headers.php
auto_append_file =
Then, in a script called fix_headers.php, somewhere in your path I hope,
you have this.
?php
# The following regex is completely untested. It is meant to
$ext = strtolower(preg_replace('|^.*\.([^.]+)$|',
$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']));
if ( 'css' === $ext ) {
header('Content-Type: text/css');
}
?
Another way to get around it is to have apache instruct PHP to change, and
output, the correct
content type.

That's not entirely correct. PHP uses reference counting, so if

it's highly likely that there is another variable somewhere that is

Re: [PHP] unset( $anobject) does not invoce __destruct()
I dont agree, and as u see in my snipped code it works fine.
in an abstract class u can define an implementation to define some basic
things a overwriting function in an extending class has to take care of as
well.
this includes specialy magic functions.
thats what they are made for. may be you talk about interfaces ?

see http://cn.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.abstract.php
PHP 5 introduces abstract classes and methods. It is not allowed to
create an instance of a class that has been defined as abstract. Any
class that contains at least one abstract method must also be
abstract. Methods defined as abstract simply declare the method's
signature they cannot define the implementation.
You make misconception understand for abstract class,:(, correct code is:
abstract class a {
abstract public function __construct(){
}
abstract public function __destruct(){
}
}
class b extends a{
public function __construct(){
echo constructingbr;
}
public function __destruct(){
echo destructingbr;
}
}
$c = new b();
unset($c);
if you want to make it work correctly that you want,plase change code to
follow
class c {
public function __construct(){
echo constructingbr/;
}
public function __destruct(){
echo destructingbr/;
}
}
class d extends c{
}
$e = new d();

Re: [PHP] unset( $anobject) does not invoce __destruct()
Stuart, u are right, the refcount in php 5 doesn't matter, where something
left behind in my memory from earlier days, However i do have the effect
that unsetting an object does NOT call __dectruct() ! but when the script
ends it is called. this can be easily tested by putting a echo in destruct.
my objects affected are pretty much the sheme I send. however I'm doing some
reflection stuff in my classes. may be thats the reason. I will do some
further investigation about that.

Assuming you're using PHP 5...
?php
abstract class a {

public function __destruct(){
echo destructingbr;
}
}
class b extends a{

$c = new b();

refcount = 3
class e {
private $m;
public function setM( $m ){
$this-m = $m;
}
}
$o = new e();
$o-setM( $c ); // works
refcount = 4 (due to assignment in setM)
unset( $c );
refcount = 3
In PHP 5 all objects are passed by reference unless explicitly cloned.
This means that assigning an object variable to another variable does
nothing more than assign a reference and increment the referece count.
What exactly in the manual leads you to believe that after the unset
the refcount should be 0?

well I would call this an error in the first view , and some of u where
right! and the stuff with the refernce counter seems to be right as well.
however I can't see a reason for it as 5.x works through refernces. so
unsetting a REFERENCE to the object does not destroy it.
How to destroy the object then?

public function __construct(){

public function __destruct(){
echo destructingbr;

The html files are produced with phpDocumentor 1.4.2. IE6 uses parts of the css files loaded to display the page, Firefox NOT AT ALL. I think it might be possible that wamp throughs some wierd characters into the css files or is the header type a problem? It looks like parsing the css through the php engine changes the header of the css to text/html. this would explain why IE6 can use them. on the other hand firebug shows the loaded css, indicates however that no css is available. as an reverse check I did load the html files direktly from the disk with file:/// ... and the css are interpreted perfectly. so the source of the problem is wamp. it seems that the @importcsss does the biggest problem.it creates a 404 error file not found it seems creating dynamic css files got some secrets involved with the wamp. I'm using this concept since ages on linux with no problem. on the @includecss it seems that the search for files are changing to the php include path or something. any idear what to check? is important for my work to create css dynamicly ralph_def...@yahoo.de -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] array() returns something weird
well, when I saw ur post I got immediately the thought I would bed it has to
do with some stuff of $this or self.
I did play arround a bit with class creation the last days and yes, with
using self parent and $this I did put the HTTPPD in unstable and sometimes
it died without beeing able to send any error.
well this doesn't help very mutch.
I have two point:
(1)ur code is ( sorry ) lazy written, invest the brackets !! ur code writing
is predestinated for that type of error. shooting variable types arround by
pulling out of foreach loops, if's, is typical.
(2) using static variables are known for type missmatch errors just anything
has acces to them even if the containing class is not instantinated. many
dirty things can happen unless of corse they are not private.
further sugestions: check if you work on ur arrays with functions returning
array on success but false on fail or something like that. also a typical
source for that type of error
are u using magic __set ? I ran into a type change as well with it
good luck

What it looks like to me is that something is causing $foo to be a
string before the '$foo[] = bar;' line is encountered. What do you
get if you put a gettype($foo); just before that line?
$foo=null;
$foo[]=bar; // -- $foo simply becomes an array
NULL. That is the problem. I _did_ put a gettype($foo) before the actual
line.
OK, here are exact four lines of my code:
$ret=array();
foreach(self::$_allowed as $r = $a)
if ($a)
$ret[]=$r;
As you can see, there is not a shred of a chance for $ret to become
something
other than empty array between initialization and the last line in the
above
snippet which causes the fatal errror. There's no __staticGet in 5.2.9, so
self::$_allowed cannot have side effects.
Secondly, the above code starts failing after it has executed successfully
dozens of times (and yes, the last line _does_ get executed; in fact
self::
$_allowed contains configuration information that doesn't change at
runtime).
Thirdly...
The problem is not limited to one place in code, and indeed before the
fatal caused by append-assignment I get several warnings like
array_diff_key(): Argument #1 is not an array, where the offending
argument receives a result of array().
This would appear to support my suspicion, but try inserting the
gettype($foo) (or better, var_export($foo);) just before one of the
lines which triggers the error, and post the results.
No, I don't think it supports your suspicion. Conversely, it indicates
that
once array() returns a strangelet, it starts returning strangelets all
over
the place. Initially it only triggers warnings but eventually one of the
returned strangelets is used in a way that triggers a fatal error.
As per your request:
//at the beginning of the script:
$GLOBALS['offending_line_execution_count']=0;
// /srv/home/[munged]/public_html/scripts/common.php line 161 and on
// instrumented as per your request:
public static function GetAllowed() {
if (debug_mode()) echo
++$GLOBALS['offending_line_execution_count'].br/;
$ret=array();
if (debug_mode()) echo var_export($ret).br/;
foreach(self::$_allowed as $r = $a)
if ($a)
$ret[]=$r;
if (self::$_allowEmpty) $ret[]=;
return $ret;
}
Output tail:

The warnings come from other uses of array().
But wait! There is this invocation of debug_mode() between initialization
of
$ret var_export. Let's factor it out to be safe:
$debugmode=debug_mode();
if ($debugmode) echo ++$GLOBALS['offending_line_execution_count'].br/;
$ret=array();
if ($debugmode) echo var_export($ret).br/;
And now the output ends with:

You cry for a MySQL version and then revert back to PHP?! Why not just
keep the whole thing in MySQL? You can use SQL statements to check
whether a record exists before attempting to shove it in the database
using a WHERE clause in the INSERT statement or by making one field
unique and hiding notices about inserts that are attempting to overwrite
that.

WHile waiting for suggestions for extracting the link text from the DOM, I

approach to the following snippet.

$posn = strpos($url, $htmldata);
echo URL |$url| position is |$posn|;
Running this gives me:
URL |http://www.beyondmusic.com/MediaPlayer/Yes/DontGo.html| position is
||
I've tried lots of functions, and even regular expressions, but I cannot
get
the code to find the URL in the HTML. While I still hope for a DOM
solution
to getting this link text, WHY can't the code find the URL in the HTML
snippet?

Re: [PHP] Re: How do I extract link text from anchor tag as well as the URL from the href attribute
this worked here:
?php
$html = new DOMDocument();
$html-loadHtmlFile(testHtml.html);
$links = $html-getElementsByTagName('a');
echo pre;
foreach ($links as $item) {
echo $item-getAttribute( 'href' ). \n;
echo --- . $item-nodeValue . \n;
}
echo /pre;
?
Im sending u the 2 files directly in a minute. it came out, as I thought
earlier that u have to check if the a tags has got children to extract
image links.

WHile waiting for suggestions for extracting the link text from the DOM, I
tried a brute force approach using the URLs I had found with
getAttribute(),
but found myself baffled by my results. I boiled down my issue with this
approach to the following snippet.
$htmldata =EOB

Required)
EOB;
$url = 'http://www.beyondmusic.com/MediaPlayer/Yes/DontGo.html';
$posn = strpos($url, $htmldata);
echo URL |$url| position is |$posn|;
Running this gives me:
URL |http://www.beyondmusic.com/MediaPlayer/Yes/DontGo.html| position is
||
I've tried lots of functions, and even regular expressions, but I cannot
get
the code to find the URL in the HTML. While I still hope for a DOM
solution
to getting this link text, WHY can't the code find the URL in the HTML
snippet?

[PHP] Re: Issue with the huge import script
Hi,
this sounds huge, and cries for a sql version of the import.
Are both databases the same? MySQL?
I give u a draft for MySQL
u export the data u have, then u got a textfile with 10+ sql statments
in the php script u open the file and iterate over it by line (carefull it
could be also ; in case its a Unix created file on a windows platform)
line == one SQL insert in table bla bla...
in the loop then just mysq_query with this line
if the the someid is an unique index the insert will fail, so only those
records are inserted beeing not already in the database.
but I think as of the amount off records it doesn't sound like a every 10
minutes job, if it is a rara job, just do it with phpMyAdmin

Hi,
I have to import data from one database to another, I have to import
around
10(1Lac) records.
First I need to check if the record is already imported or not and import
only those records which are not imported.
Here is my logic
$already_imported = get_already_imported_records();
format of the $already_imported is $already_imported[someid] = 'imported';
Now i take all records from another db and iterating through it.
if (!key_exists($already_imported[$new_id])){
import_function($new_id)
}else{
echo 'allready imported'.$already_imported[$new_id];
}
Now my script is importing same records for more than one time. I am not
able to get through this issue
Is it because of the size of the records or something else...?
Please suggest me some solution which is faster, safe and easy to code :D

Re: [PHP] session variables - help
I'm realy sorry for u, but the reason for no answers is ur concept.
may be some rules will help u and I recommend u to think to spend the time
to rewrite the whole code. Im shure u will solve the problem then:
first dont use the global arrays directly. pick the values u need and put
them in reasonable types of variables.
build the business logic on these variables and if u feel like put the
results in well readable new ones
then populate the presentation in the required htmls
this will give u an more structured code, easier to debug and more fun for
the group to help u
I still dont understand why u use the $_SESSION variable. user often leave
forms open for hours and then submit them. u can not expect a user to end a
job in the livecycle of the session. thats what hidden form fields are made
for.
the $_session is for member like things and applications with security
issues where u can expect the user to finish things in a certain time or u
restart the whole.

Ben,
First of all, I thank you for your time and help.
My ai with using unset($var) in update_order.php is to set the SESSION
variable for an item to ' ' (empty) so that it would not show up on the
order summary (because my writeResultRow() function will only write a row
if
that variable is greater than 0).
I just can't figure out what I'm missing here. Before I received your
response, I made a few changes to my code, which helped streamline the
calculating parts (grabbing values from SESSION instead of POST, and now
when I update order_summary, the values will remain because it pulls them
from the SESSION).
I want to edit the values in the SESSION, so that when update_order.php
redirects to order_process.php, the values are changed, and if applicable,
an item is removed from the html table (if the quantity is less than 1).
Here is some more complete code:
[code = order_process.php]
?php
session_start();
// POST ALL $_POST VALUES, CREATE AS VARIABLES IN SESSION
foreach($_POST as $k=$v) {
$_SESSION[$k]=$v;

?php

$total = $b * $c;
return $total;
}
function writeResultRow($a, $b, $c, $d, $e, $f) {
if($a != '') {
echo \ntr\n\t;
echo td'.$b./tdtd.$c./tdtd.$d./td;
echo td.$e./tdtdnbsp;/tdtdinput type='text'
value='.$a.'
name='.$a.' id='.$a.' size='2' //tdtd=/tdtd\$.$f./td;
echo /tr;
}
}
//SETS $Total_show_01 to PRICE * QUANTITY
//FORMATS TOTAL
//IF A QUANTITY IS ENTERED, WRITES THE ROW WITH CURRENT VARIABLES
$Total_show_01 = findTotalCost($shows['show_01']['price'],
$_SESSION['show_01_qty']);
$Total_show_01_fmtd = number_format($Total_show_01, 2, '.', '');
writeResultRow($_SESSION['show_01_qty'], $shows['show_01']['title'],
$shows['show_01']['date'], $shows['show_01']['time'],

Now, here is the update_order.php code in entirety:
[code]
?php
session_start();
foreach ($_SESSION as $var = $val) {
if ($val == 0) {
unset($_SESSION[$var]);
} elseif ($val == '') {
unset($_SESSION[$var]);
} else {
$val = $_SESSION[$var];
}
}
header(Location: order_process.php);
//NOTICE I FIXED THE LOCATION OF THE header() FUNCTION
//BUT IT STILL DOES NOT UPDATE
?
[/code]
If you're still with me, I thank you. I removed all the styling elements
from the html to make it easier for you (and me) to see what it says. I
have
invested many hours into this, and have generated many many lines of code,
but I hope what I gave you is sufficient, while not being overwhelming at
this hour.
Thank you very much for your help thus far, anything else would be greatly
appreciated.

but what Im asking is that the reality? go and talk to accountant and tell them after spending soansomuch for the new site hes has to buy a new server ! what will acountant say, what u think. another more important point is in reality u take a project on on a specific hardware base. lets say it a pretty new server fast a mercedes 500 but not a ferrari V1. because of ur great reusable code u do an extra ordinary competitive price bacause u are ready made that fast, u put it on the server and ? womm because of thausand of includes and stuff the customer is not happy with the speed. what u think who is going to pay the new hardware? or better who is going to cut down the code. well its me, because as senior consultant i'm taking over the projects from young programmers who went out of business because the postulations of the closed contract put them bankrupt. THATS THE REALITY so guys tell me on a design pattern frame work what requirements the server should fullfill that I can astimate if the customers situation will not put me out of business?

Hosting companies will always try to keep a server machine as long as they can, because a paid server DOES MAKE MONEY. so where is then the cheap and fast server. how many servers out there still running on PHP4? have u thouhgt about? again, design pattern make sence, but on a companies policy base or on a medium upwards sized project. but there will be more languages be involved in one company it would be much better to use a language independent tool. again this is chasing mice with an elephant Except for incompetent algorithms, it is almost always cheaper to throw money at a new server than to have a coder micro optimize his/her code. Similarly, it is usually cheaper to throw more hardware at a well programmed solution that uses modern programming concepts than to have a programmer use the most rudimentary of programming techniques to save on cycles. With respect to why you see shortening of code and cutting out comments, perhaps you are referring to the recent Calendar thread, where a bunch of us were just having some good old optimization fun. I for one enjoy the occasional diversion of optimizing some code just for the sake of optimizing it. Sometimes even, the optimization is even the cleanest/most readable solution.

Re: [PHP] Re: Re: Re: Design Patterns
Greg I completly aggree, but dont miss the point that I'M adigted to OOP
WHY NOT A FRAMEWORK CLOSER TO THE REAL POINT CALLED DOM
design pattern for HTML XHTML XML SVG Database conection and retrieving.
WHY CLASSES FOR CALLERS AND RECEIVERS AND INTERPRETERS.
a div is it a caller? a receiver?
why there a only dom classes? why not forgetting about the tag shit and a
bunch of classes for it?
well wait I will come up with it if I find ever the time and stop learning
from this list.
I also believe that u can force a good design patter by supplying a some
good very well design base classes. I mean talk to an JAVA freak, I dont
think they will come up with that type of framework.
as we just talking about that when can we expect PHP to extend unlimited
classes in one class.
for the newbies following the bullheaded experts fight:
something like this
class wow extents database, users, accessright implements HTML {

I deeply and completely agree.
Yes, certainly optimize on an as-needed basis. But well written PHP code
should certainly scale quite well horizontally. Extremely traffic laden
websites are quite likely to see a bottleneck at the database before a
bottleneck in the code.
Hi,
You all should understand that on high traffic sites, C or C++ is far
more frequently used and called PHP because they use a whole lot of
custom extensions to speed things up. In addition, memcached speeds up
database access so much that the speed of PHP starts to matter. This is
why PHP 5.3.0 is somewhere around 30% faster than any previous PHP
version when running common applications, because the core developers
realized that the base efficiency begins to matter and spent
considerable effort improving basic language performance.
There are a lot of ways to improve PHP's efficiency, and arguing over
whether to use design patterns is not a particularly effective one.
Profiling early and often to understand the slowest portions of your
code is an effective method. There are many, many talks/videos/etc.
that can be found via google.com which discuss these principles, but
suffice to say that xdebug, APC, and most importantly siege and apache
benchmark are your friends in this endeavor.
For Ralph: it might help you to know that facebook.com improved their
performance by splitting up things into lots and lots of classes, and
using autoload. I don't have specific details because I don't work
there, but the programmer who coded this solution was telling me the
generalities at php|tek 2 years ago. The pages that saw improvement
were ones with a large number of possible execution branches in
different requests. autoload simply reduced the number of needed files
to the bare minimum from a wide variety of choices.
This surprised me, because the prevailing opinion at the time was that
autoload always reduces performance. The point to take from this story
is that what you think to be true doesn't matter, the only thing is
really understanding where your bottlenecks are by profiling
aggressively, and even more important, why its slow, so you can fix it.

Re: [PHP] design pattern
Hi Martin, thanks for ur efforts, this is a lot of good work. for my opinion the start is a bit too much theoretical and valid for all type of application. In simple words, u are too close to the book. I would love to have something closer to the purpose of PHP and its applications. if u have a look at the SMARTY documentation u have good explanation (and a bad example by the way concerned oop) what are the real world problem. When it comes to the final u find the most spagetti code in putting the page grafic designer toghether with the business logic. It would be great if this could be put in good oop patterns.

It is not common to see design patterns applied to PHP applications and, is more common to don't see PHP applications. They are just scripts. Many scripts in a simple folder puts together to do the dirty work. Of course there are many kicking-ass PHP Applications, but they are a minimum portion compared to old-fashioned scripts. So, how do we start writing good quality PHP Applications? That's a very good question, and I don't know the answer, but I think by talking about design patterns we are in a good way. It's true that using design patterns the code will run slower, but it'll be flexible, maintable, and the most important: simple. After all that's what we are looking for, something really simple that make our life as developers happier every day. How do you explain the crescent number of php frameworks for rapid development? PHP core team has taken OOP seriously. Do you note the new SPL objects? The core team creates those objects using many designs patterns. By example the RecursiveDirectoryIterator and it's family use the decorator pattern. Also features such as late static binding were added because a design pattern. I think there will be some separation in the community, those who will stay using scripts and those who will use heavily OOP.

Re: [PHP] Is select_db necessary?
here a basic background to this question. all databases are build from various module bases. one module is the database itself prosessing eg. the sql's another module is the database connectivity. e.g. mySQL has a ability to connect thru ADO, .NET and an server via IP. MySQL supports unlimited databases comtaining tables. so from the point of the database u have always to selct the database and then to the table. however, if u study the various Database extensions u will find functions (eg. mysql_db_query() ) where u point the database in the function call while others don't (eg. mysql_query() ) on those u have to do a db select first because the function itself doesn't do it, while mysql_db_connect() does. so if we know that now, we are coming to the question, why are database extensions do have those two types of processing a sql statement? the answer is: speed ! while those commands with a pointing out the database do internally a select of the database they do it every time on each call. if u have a application which does a lot of stuff at the same time other then just select statement, this comes into consideration. it saves time to do one select_db first and then 50 just raw sql's to that database. now after dumping that much stuff on u, it depends on ur design if u need a select_db first or not. hope that helps Ralph ralph_def...@yahoo.de Allen McCabe allenmcc...@gmail.com wrote in message news:657acef20908112023y222de6f4q63e64cd1e2785...@mail.gmail.com...

Please help. My form validation worked fine until I added the terms
check
at the bottom. Any ideas?
//form validation step one
function validateStep1(myForm){
// list of required fields
with (myForm) {
var requiredFields = new Array (
firstName,
lastName,
phone,
email,
terms)
}
// check for missing required fields
for (var i = 0; i requiredFields.length; i++){
if (requiredFields[i].value == ){
alert (You left a
required
field blank. Please enter the required information.);
requiredFields[i].focus();
return false;
}
}
// check for valid email address format
var eaddress= myForm.email.value;
var validaddress=
/^([a-zA-Z0-9_.-])+@(([a-zA-Z0-9-])+.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})$/;
//var validaddress= /^((\w+).?(\w+))+...@\w+/i;
var result= eaddress.match(validaddress);
if (result == null) {
alert (Please enter your complete email
address.);
myForm.email.focus();
return false;
}
// check for valid phone format
var check= myForm.phone.value;
check= check.replace(/[^0-9]/g,);
if (check.length 10) {
alert (please enter your complete phone number.);
return false;
}//end if
return true;
//begin terms and conditions check
var termsCheck= myForm.terms.value;
if (bcForm1.checked == false)
{
alert ('Please read and select I Agree
to
the Terms and Conditions of Service.');
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
//end terms check

[PHP] Re: Synchronizing autonumber fields
hi there, this is typical app for db repliction mechanism. it depnds of the size off your project. have a look here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/replication-howto.html if this is oversized for u do a dump of each table without the auto_increment fields. if u read in these tables the main database then does use its own record id. to identifie these records use a subsidairy finegerprint field. another way would be not to use a ai field for identifying the record, use a timestamp field to have an unique index on the tables. it is very unlikeley that two records are written at the same time in the various subsidaries. a timestamp field is a breakdown to the milisecond. however there is still a chance of 1 to some billion, that two records have the same key. just some possibilities cheers ralph ralph_def...@yahoo.de Leidago !Noabeb leid...@googlemail.com wrote in message news:5bcf496e0908110004w94d29c2j4b01806822ca0...@mail.gmail.com... Hi I have the following tables setup in MYSQL: Region 1 Region 2 HQ Tbl1 with autonumbered (PK) Tbl1 with autonumbered (PK) Tbl1 autonumbered-PK To explain the above. Basically there are two regions that collect information and then at the end of each month they have to send the information to HQ. This is fine, but the problem comes when the information (the data in the tables) is submitted to HQ. All three tables have the same names and the same structure. We want to synchronize the information sent by the regions into one table at HQ. How can we do this without having the duplicate number problem?

Re: [PHP] how to say inverse your value (to a boolean)?
seems they changing idears on the fly? could it be that the designer is a
smal ugly person while u a a good looking ladykiller ?
on that background I would design a function where u can change ti what ever
u want on the fly something like this
var $a;
function alternate( $a, $_b=array( red, red ,green ,... ) {
if( count( $_b ) $a ) {
return $_b[ $a++ ] ;
}
$a=0;
return $_b[ $a++ ] ;
}
so now u can do what ever anybody wants on just putting the right values
into the array
cheers

2009/8/11 Daevid Vincent dae...@daevid.com:
NO! For the love of God and all that is holy, don't do that accumulator /
mod hack.
That's so 1980's. And why make the CPU do all that math for every
row...
Just do this. It's quick and simple:
CSS:
.dataRow1 { background-color: #DFDFDF; }
.dataRow2 { background-color: #FF; }
foreach ($foo_array as $foo) {
?tr class=?= ($dr = !$dr) ? dataRow1 : dataRow2 ?td?= $foo
?/td/tr?php
}
A change request just came in - the interaction designer wants every
third line to have a grey background, instead of every second line.
No need to initialize $dr as by default PHP will make it a boolean
false,
then each itteration, it will toggle true/false and substitute the CSS
class
Um. No. Just no.

Re: [PHP] reason for a Notice:.. on one site but not another? (Same code.)
this is not intelligence its just pure math. the '' says if BOTH
expressions are true then the whole expression is true.
so if the first one is false, the whole is false, why checking the next one
in the underlaying C it would be something like this
{
if ( expression == false ) return false;
if ( expression == false) return false;
return true;
}

If you switch it around you'll get a notice because the IF evaluates
from left to right. So you just want to make sure you check isset()
first.
This would throw a notice:
if($_POST['UserWishesDateRange'] == 'T'
isset($_POST['UserWishesDateRange'])) {
Aha! That must be what I tried and was still getting the notice!
Interesting that it works (without notice) if we check against the
isset () one first. It makes if() look more intelligent that I would
think... as if it saying, good now that we've established that the
var isset, now is it also equal to '___'., as opposed to just, is var
set, and is var equal to ___'.
