Re: [PHP] Passing verables along from Java Scripts
Variables can only be passed to a PHP script via POST or GET. So if you want to pass JavaScript variables to a PHP script, you must do it that way. For your second question, look for the window.open() function in JavaScript. Your code would look something like this: form input type=button value=Press Me onClick=javascript:window.open(height=400,width=400,other parameters); /form You must include the form tags for the button to render properly in Netscape.

Re: [PHP] how to pass value from popup window to php program
There is no way of passing a variable from JS to PHP without sending something back to the server or using a cookie. I haven't followed the thread at all, but if I needed to pass a value from a pop-up window to a PHP program, I'd probably do something like this: In the pop-up window, once the form's submit button is clicked or a Click here link is clicked, the page calls the PHP program. The PHP program processes the variable (sticking the value in the database, whatever), then outputs a bit of HTML/JS just to close the window. Note that absolutely NOTHING will happen if the user closes the window by clicking the close widget on the window itself.

Re: [PHP] header() and frameset
Clarification: this will only work if you put the script inside the page that the header() command points to. If you put the header() command in the same document with this script, then the header() command won't work, since you'll be sending output to the browser. Here's a thought. Use the header() command to redirect to a page which contains (a) a script to burst the user out of frames, and (b) uses a META tag or JavaScript to redirect the user to anywhere.com.

Re: [PHP] How should I cache database data for php?
Are you sure that cacheing database data is the right way to approach the problem? How about using a cron job to write static HTML pages from live data? You could set up such a system to run every few hours or so. I haven't done that in PHP, but it's something I'm looking at doing for a Perl project I'm working on. It seems to me that the major problem with news sites such as cnn.com or msnbc.com on dates like 9/11 was the sheer number of visitors coming to the site. No matter how the pages were served up, the load was unbearable for the servers. val petruchek wrote: Since reading your first post I've been racking my brains/teasing my memory. I'm sure there's an article on one of the popular PHP sites that talks about exactly this: creating a web page dynamically, but serving it as static HTML (ie with no back-end db access per serving). This idea came to me after September 11 - many news sites were down because of too many visitors. Some of them refused from dynamic page generation to survive, because huge amounts of visitors looked like hacker attack.

Re: [PHP] How should I cache database data for php?
Even with straight HTML, a server's load capacity is not infinite. If my own server, an old Pentium with 4 GB of hard drive space, and which serves nothing but static HTML pages, got hit with more than a couple hundred hits in a short period of time, it would bomb. I must be misunderstanding your question. I've re-read your original post, and it seems to me that what you're trying to do is save webpage-bound database data in a way which will seriously reduce the load on a webserver; creating static HTML pages from database data instead of building pages dynamically when the user calls them would accomplish that goal, and that is what I was suggesting. val petruchek wrote: It seems to me that the major problem with news sites such as cnn.com or msnbc.com on dates like 9/11 was the sheer number of visitors coming to the site. No matter how the pages were served up, the load was unbearable for the servers. You see, giving user static or dynamic pages differs a lot.

You are right ;) er, yes and no! Jeff's original post mentioned reducing load on the db server - are the db and web servers on the same physical device - and thus his concern? - or perhaps if there are other apps needing to 'compete' with the web server to gain access to the db concurrently? =dn In which case, it seems to me that my solution would still be a good one. Reducing the number of hits on the database server by building static pages as needed to be served up by a web server would still reduce the load on the database server. -- Sliante, Richard S.

Re: [PHP] how to send to URL on if statement?
If you have already sent output to the browser, then you won't be able to use the PHP header() command to redirect the browser. There are a couple of ways around this, though; look into the META tag in HTML, or you can use JavaScript to redirect the browser. If what you want to do is send all users to the same original page, but then send certain users to another page if the if condition is met, then use PHP to generate the META tag... if (condition) { print(meta-equiv=\Refresh\ content=\15\; URL=\http://my.page.com\;); } I've done that before. It's a pretty useful feature. Andrea Caldwell wrote: Sorry, I'm new at this... I have already sent output... any way to do this? Thanks again, Andrea Ing.

Re: [PHP] PHP Security - view source code
Well, if you do View Source on any browser, it will only show the source code of the HTML that the page has rendered, not the PHP/Perl/ASP/Cold Fusion/whatever that was used to generate the HTML code. So using View Source will never show you the programming behind the HTML. That said, I don't believe it is very easy to view the source code of a PHP program that generates a web page. If you can get into the server, you can see the program. I have never tried it, so I'm not sure. Standard security measures apply.

Re: [PHP] Newbie database question
I don't think that there's an easy way to do it in MySQL. I usually use some hack along the lines of, select x from t where x = $y, and if there are any results returned, return a message of some sort (That value already exists in the database!). Bear in mind that sometimes people have very similar contact information. At the university where I used to work, there were two employees who shared the same first, middle, and last names, as well as birth dates, and their social security numbers differed by exactly one digit.

Re: [PHP] Form Problem
The presence of the final / in the line makes the page XHTML compliant. It should be left in, and it has no effect whatsoever on the functionality of the input tag.

Alternatively, and this is what I would do because it would be easier to maintain should you want to change the content later on, you could use includes as per the following: ?php print(html\nhead\ntitleTry This/title\n/head\nbody\n); if(condition) include(html_block_1.html); else include(html_block_2.html); print(/body\n/html); ?
