[PHP] Re: Custom Open Tags
Hi Sven,
i was in the need to allow ?php Tags within template-layers which caused
me some problems at first as i ran into the situation you described. I was
able to solve this problem quite well using this function:
/**
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
*/
function ParsePHP ( $content ) {
preg_match_all(#\\?php(.*?)\?\#sim,$content,$source_parts);
foreach($source_parts[1]AS$id=$php_source){
ob_start();
eval(ereg_replace(\\$([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*),
\$GLOBALS[\\\1\] , $php_source ) );
$content=str_replace($source_parts[0][$id],ob_get_contents(),
$content );
ob_end_clean();
}
return$content;
}
Adding some minor changed would allow you to use custom opening and closing
tags (in fact you would just replace the \?php with \?xyz and would be
done.
I'm using the regular expression to replace
\\$([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*)
with
\$GLOBALS[\\\1\]
to make sure all variables are found as we are within the function's scoope
and not within the global one.
Maybe this helps some ppl.
-- red
The only downside: No single quote (') is possible outside ?xyz ... ?
tags in the file included. This can of course be fixed, but only with a
ridiculous amount of code. If only there was a way to do heredoc
strings that DON'T parse variables (like in Perl).

[PHP] Re: Globally accessible objects without using 'global $obj;'
Hi Chris,
Something that worked out very well for me was using a function that
would take care of the error handling ... kind of
?php
define ( 'ERR_TYPE_ERROR' , 1 ) ;
define ( 'ERR_TYPE_WARNING' , 2 ) ;
class Error {
// error handling code here
}
function _handleError ( $msg , $type ) {
static $errClass ;
if ( is_class ( $errClass ) === FALSE ) {
$errClass = new Error();
}
// hand $msg to $errClass here ...
}
function raiseError ( $msg ) {
return _handleError ( $msg , ERR_TYPE_ERROR ) ;
}
function raiseWarning ( $msg ) {
return _handleError ( $msg , ERR_TYPE_WARNING ) ;
}
?
But today i prefer using PHPs build-in Error-Handling functions
using the 2 Errorlevels ( E_USER_NOTICE, E_USER_WARNING
and E_USER_ERROR ) for my debugging and error-handling.
But looking at PHP5's try-throw-catch constructs makes me think
about rewritting large parts of my current project :-/

Chris W. Parker wrote:
Hello,
Ok so I'm trying to write an error reporting class and I'm just sort of
experimenting at this point (comments outside the scope of this email
are welcome btw) with how to best implement it. One idea I had (which
isn't working out as well as I'd hoped thus far) is to create an
instance of my error class (incidentally called 'Error') at the start of
each page and then reference that instance from within all other objects
and functions.
Maybe this would be best explained with some code:
?php
$e = new Error();
function my_function()
{
// do stuff
if($this == $that)
{
$e-RaiseError();
}
}
?
Of course, that doesn't work because my_function() doesn't know anything
about $e unless I put a special statement into my_function().
?php
function my_function()
{
// here's the new line
global $e;
// do stuff
...
}
?
I already don't like the idea of having to put 'global $e;' within each
and every function/method I write. Should I abandon this idea and try
something else? If so, what?
Here is my first idea just fyi.
?php
function my_function()
{
$e = new Error();
// do stuff
if($this == $that)
{
$e-RaiseError();
}
else
{
// continue like normal
}
// get ready to return a response
if($e-error_count 0)
{
return $e;
}
else
{
// return something else
}
}
?
Now to use my_function() within a page I have to always assign the
result to a variable so that I can determine whether or not any errors
occured within the function.
?php
$result = my_function();
if($result-error_count 0)
{
// an error occurred
$result-DisplayErrors();
}
?
But that also seems like a hassle (but maybe it's a completely necessary
hassle?). I've looked around the internets for a while but have not
found any REALLY useful documents on managing errors (could be that I've
not found the write article yet) and such so any
comments/pointers/links/etc. are very welcome.
What I'd ultimately like to do is be able to return more than just a
true/false from a function regarding it's end state. For example, a
function could fail for multiple reasons and just returning a plain
false for all situations does not suffice.
Thank you for making it this far.
Chris.

[PHP] Re: Saving variables in a session in a destructor
Maybe you check out the internals archives as an discussion about this topic
was held 1-2 days ago.
Hi all
Using PHP5, I am trying to save some properties of an object when it
is destroyed in its destructor, __destruct(). However, I have found
that the session variable is NOT stored unless I explicitly destroy
the object using unset(). If I leave php to finish executing the
script and automatically destroy the object, the destructor IS called,
however, the session variables are NOT saved. A quick code example
for clarity:
-
class StateMachine {
public $stateVariable;
function __destruct() {
$_SESSION['state'] = $this-stateVariable;
}
}
$sm = new StateMachine();
if (isset($_SESSION['state'])) {
$sm-stateVariable = $_SESSION['state'];
} else {
$sm-stateVariable = 'foobar';
}
(please ignore the obvious bad coding standard of making that var
public and accessing it, this is for simplicity of the example).
Unless I do an unset($sm); at the end of a script like this, the
$_SESSION array will never contain the state=foobar key/value.
Can anyone offer some insight into this?
Thanks!

$strlen = strlen ( $string ) ;
$return = '' ;
for ( $str_pos = 0 ; $str_pos $strlen ; $str_pos++ ) {
$char = substr ( $string , $str_pos , 1 );
$ascii = ord ( $char );
if ( $ascii 5 == 6 ) {
$char2 = substr ( $string , ++$str_pos , 1 );
$ascii2 = ord ($char2);
$ascii = 31 ;
$ascii2 = 63 ;
$ascii2 |= ( ($ascii 3 ) 6 ) ;
$ascii = 2 ;
$return .= '#x' . str_pad ( dechex( $ascii ) , 2 , '0' ,
STR_PAD_LEFT ) . str_pad ( dechex( $ascii2 ) , 2 , '0' , STR_PAD_LEFT )
. ';' ;
} else {
$return .= $char;
}
}
return $return;
}
But at this point i faced even bigger problems when using this kind
of data on JavaScripts or sending the data in an text/plain E-Mail.
I tryed to convert the data back but failed as chr() only supports
a Charset of 255 Characters ( which most languages don't match eg
ru, pl, ch, jp ... )
So my question is if anyone on this list has an idea on how to retrieve
the data completely? Some kind of func_ConvertFromHTML() function.

[PHP] Re: problem with embeded objects and reference
Lill example:
[...]
$child1-setproperty(first);//displayed
$main-setChild($child1);
$child1-setproperty(second); //NOT DISPLAYED
[...]
$child1 is passed to $main with property 'first'. Later on
you update $child1, but not $main-child, as they are not
the same objects ( equal but not same ).
So i guess you need to
-$main-setChild($child1);
+$main-setChild($child1);
and
-$this-child = $child;
+$this-child = $child; // MUST !!!
Now i see, $this-child = $child; copys the object instead
of creating a ref.

Re: [PHP] Messages to List Being Truncated
Usually it should be \\\ to get a \ ... now lets take a look
at your regexp
/^[a-zA-Z0-9\(\)]{1}[ a-zA-Z0-9\(\)_\,\.\-\'\]{1,999}$/
^[a-zA-Z0-9()] should work, as ( and ) only needs to be escaped
when not within an []-block (cannot recall the name right now)
[- a-zA-Z0-9(),.'_]{1,999}$ should be correct here, i am not
sure about the . and ,. '\ should be replaced by \'
if you use single quotes to build the pattern.
Full regexp would be:
#^[a-zA-Z0-9()][- a-zA-Z0-9(),.'_]{1,999}$#
or even easier:
#^[a-z0-9()][- a-z0-9(),.'_]{1,999}$#i
I replaced the delimiter / with # as you don't use it within the regexp
and using / makes escaping the / even worse ( guess it's 7 / then )
Hope this helps you :-)

back in. This is the code that executes at login:
session_cache_expire(0);
session_cache_limiter('private');

either.
Anyone have any ideas as to how I can resolve this?

from what you wrote it seems that only the type of display is similar in
both classes. I don't think this is enough to extend them from the same base
class because the class properties and update/insert/load methods will be
different in each.
You have more of a 'is part of' relationship here. So I'd suggest something
like this (simplified):
class Portfolio {
var $portfolioID;
var $albums = array();
}
class Album {
var $albumID;
var $portfolioID;
var $photos = array();
}
class Photo {
var $photoID;
var $albumID;
var $name;

Allright, even if it's OT
Many ways to handle it, first would be to add a function within the
frameset which handles redirects to the frames:
script language=javascript
function handleFrameRedirect ( frame , url ) {
document.frames[ frame ].document.location.href = url ;
}
/script
Within the frame you use
script language=javascript
parent.handleFrameRedirect( framename , url );
/script
Another way is calling this directly within the frame:
script language=javascript
parent.document.frames[ framename ].document.location.href = url ;

Hi Rene,
Here's a thought- make your animated gif that's a grow-bar
that fills from left to right. Maybe it maxes out at 99% or
loops back around to 0 after reaching 100. :) Display this at
the top of the screen - but not within a table that is part of
the results display. More on why shortly.
Send about 256 characters of HTML (including the IMG SRC link
to your gif), then issue a flush(). At this point begin your
long-running query, displaying output as it becomes avialable.
Once the output is complete, issue a javascript that changes
the gif to a different one that's not animated (ex: 100%).
A few things to keep in mind:
- Some IE browsers won't display anything until 255 chars
have been output- hence the 256 number above.
- Some NS browsers won't display a portion of a table until
the entire table including closing tag has been written.
Hence, don't put your grow-bar inside a table unless it's
completed before issuing the long-running query.
Hope this helps,
james

that they might use HTTP-REFRESH or something, and just keep hitting
the database until the result is there. But is there a best way to do
this? In my application, when the user clicks a certain button, it will
take 10-20 seconds for the operation to completeduring that time I
need the web browser to waiit for the data.
I looked around for an article on this, but I'm not sure how to
characterize this operation.

[PHP] Re: $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] in read-only.
AFAIK the content of the superglobal variables cannot be changed ( even
though i haven't found this in the docs i can remeber got beaten by PHP
for doing so :-) )
Back to the problem ( if existent ):
If you don't do stuff like '$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = ;' inside your
script you won't run into trouble - I know some ppl like to use such
strange work-arounds ;-)
Otherwise using
define ( 'SERVER_NAME' , $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] );
right at startup will usually solve your problem ( as workarounds will
most likely kill other scripts if the SERVER_NAME is diffrent :-))
-- red

Hello,
I am using the variable $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] inside a function, for
example:
function check_servname() {
global $server ;
if($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] != $server) {
echo NOT OK, NOT GOOD SERVER NAME ;
exit ;
}
}
But we can modify the value of $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] before calling
the function check_servname(). And I am looking for a the right server
name not for a server name which may have been changed before calling
check_servername:
$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = www.google.com ; //before calling
check_servname and $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] will be www.google.com
inside the function even the server name is not www.google.com.
Is there any way to get the server name with a variable which would be
read-only ?
Thanks,
Vincent.
Agreed - constants are the way to do this. I wanted to mention that the
$_SERVER variables are meant to hold values generated by your server. Of
course if you really ARE google then I'm going to feel stupid for even
mentioning this :)

zap you are done ... again when using a function to include
a file with relying on depts within the file you would most
probably use a registry-pattern or similar to access the required
variables.

That makes local copies only, still no access to the global variable

[PHP] Re: How to do type/existence checking in PHP5
Hi,
this is a plain design fault on your side:
?php
$a = 'this is not an array';
if( is_array( $a['foo'] ) )
print '1';
[...]
?
allright, just set $a to be a string, thats allright, now
you check wether an string-offset ( foo ) is an array or
not which causes an FATAL ERROR on PHP5.
Now if you wrote some clean code you would have done:
?php
$a = 'this is not an array';
if ( is_array ( $a ) ) {
if ( is_array ( $a['foo'] ) ) {
print '1' ;
}
} else {
print 'nope';
}
?
Now this makes sense as you first of all would make sure if $a is an
array and not start with the first index ( which doesn't exist as $a
is not even an array )
-- red
PS: PHP5 says:
Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in /www/htdocs
test_offset.php on line 6
[...]
Hi
In PHP5 the behaviour of illegal string offsets has changed. This is
documented in the 'thin changes' file.
This gives a problem in checking for existence / types of values,
directly into a deeper level of a multidimensional array.
I reported this as a bug[1] because I find the behaviour unfortunate, and
furthermore it's inconsistent. This was refused, with a note 'So don't
do it'. I think it's a really bad idea not to check the
existence/types of values, before using them, so how should this be done
properly in PHP5, without risking fatal errors in the case of a
non-existent array?
This is a problem in migrating applications from PHP4 because the
error will not appear unless the value deosn't exist, which is exactly
why you do the check.

I have an ini file for my application and I use parse_ini_file to load it
and some custom code to save modifications. I'd like to figure out how
to store array values in there since that is the logical place to keep
config data. If I can't, I could probably use a string with @@ or | in
it as the token but an array is so much more elegant because that's what
it's meant to do :-)
Any suggestions?

Re: [PHP] regular expression

first of all, in E-Mail Headers every param needs to be written in a
seperate line, therefore following will work even with multiple recipients:
$recipients = array();
$header = explode( \n , $header );
foreach ( $header AS $param ) {
$param = trim ( $param );
if ( strtolower( substr( $param , 0 , 3 ) ) == 'to:' ) {
$recipients[] = trim ( substr( $param , 3 ) );
}
}
This will match every of these:

' TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'
' TO:Mr Baz [EMAIL PROTECTED]'
' TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

Re: [PHP] assign mysql query to a variable first or not
One of the greatest benefits is the fact, that you can easily display your actual query without copying it, passing it to a variable and then display it's content: $result = mysql_query( ); would first become: $var = ; $result = mysql_query( ); echo $var ; now if the query fails, you have to rewrite the Query, copy it to the variable again etc. pp When doing $var = . ; $result = mysql_query( $var ); echo $var ; you just have to rewrite one query instead of two. This way of working only helps you to debug a little faster. [...] AB is it better to give the mysql query string to a variable AB instead of directly doing it with mysql_query? AB i.e. AB $query=select * from table;//is this a better way? AB $query=mysql_query(select * from table);//or is this way AB //better? AB mysql_query(select * from table);//not a good idea i dont think... Most people here probably use some kind of database abstraction layer already (ADOdb, a Pear lib, or a home-grown one, etc). While you are not doing this at the moment, if you hold the query in a string before passing to MySQL it means you could implement a database handler in the future with minimal code changes and not have to re-do every single query. There are other benefits, but that one strikes me as the most important at the moment. [...] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

From: William Lovaton [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Instead of doing a lot of casting, you can use is_numeric() to see if a
variable is a number or a numeric string.
Yeah, but the OP wanted to be able to tell an integer from a real number
from a string. is_numeric() is going to validate 5, 5.5, and 5.05E6, for
example.
well, an integer is a float too, the real problem is when you type 5.5
in a variable that is expected to be integer. In this case is_numeric()
won't do the trick.
May be using regexps ([0-9]) will be enough to check integer values but
I think it is a bit slower. It is always better to use native functions
instead of regexps where possible.
