Re: [PHP] A universal Database Class

What you want is a database abstraction layer.  search the archives for 
pear or metabase.  Another option is use the lousy ODBC

MSSQL server and another could run it off a MySQL database.

themselves.
they spend energy on solving the problem and they learn how to learn.

I'd bet my arm that all the best php programmers of the world, hang out on

Subject: RE: [PHP] This PHP list


   I was hoping that this PHP list would be of people developing
   with PHP, who have reached some level of familiarity with the product
   and when they have had a fair go at solving a problem, they then posted
   it to the list.  For example, we have a problem in our code where the
   last object in an array of objects sometimes vanishes into thin air
   depending on whether you comment-out a block of unrelated code further
   up the script.
 
  Sounds like an interesting problem, but related specifically to your code.
  Post it and see..?
 
   Unfortunately, this list is full of people with questions like "I want
to
   access a database with PHP. Can someone please send me the source code".
  
   Does anyone know of any other PHP lists that are more suited
   to non-trivial, expert-related discussions?
 
  Well, remember it's called PHP General not PHP Advanced Techy Wizardry. :)
 
  The reason it's general and not advanced is that if they made an advanced
  list as you suggest, the newbies would all go there and ask their
questions.
 
  There are quite a few experienced, knowledgeable and advanced users around
  here. It also helps if you actually ask your questions sometimes too you
  know 8)
 
   If there aren't any around, I'll start one on Yahoogroups or
   some other similar service.
 
  Feel free to do it, and best of luck. :)

not all browsers support the referrer or some people use software to block

Isn't that the point? If there's no referer, they didn't come from the first
page, so you send them back there. I could be completely wrong here - is
HTTP_REFERER empty following a form submission, even if it's to a different
page?

  what you need to do is combine your two scripts, which is really a neater
  way handling forms anyway. point your form action to the same page
  ($PHP_SELF works really well for this, since you can rename the file and
  it will still run properly), and then add the following code to the top
  of your application.php file
 
  if($GLOBALS["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
 
  include("process_application.php");
 
  exit;
 
  }

This is how I would handle it personally, but then he'd mentioned having two
pages, so..

I could always divide by 100 and have a look at the result and se if it

Re: [PHP] IBill - Can you recommend a script?

We have dealt a lot with iBill.  They are great.  The best interface to 
them that I know
of is the opayc solution from Inline. The advantage is you will be able to 
do charge backs
and the solution can be ported to any platform. php, CF, vb. Also opayc 
will handle the
updates to the api, if it changes.  You just download the new dll.

[PHP] FAQ

It is there a list of most frequently asked questions?
It seems that people ask the same questions, again and again,
they do not READ THE MANUAL.  Yes I have asked 2 stupid
questions, but I really did search and I am reading my manuals,
the PHP and the book that I bought.


Also I would like to know if there would be a demand for an
experienced mailing list?  I am just frustrated by the same 3
questions that pop up about once a day. The rest of the posts
are great.

I once thought a great product for mail lists (would require an admin
interface, PHP?) would be a way to put into the list mail signature a random
FAQ link.

Fill that particular FAQ with commonly asked questions and have the FAQ sent
out each month to all subscribers. A decent threaded mail reader would make
this reasonably easy (notice I did not say *simple*) to administer.

Re: [PHP] FAQ Ignor if you are tired of this.

2001-03-15 Thread Rick St Jean

This was sent off-list. I respect that. And it voices some opinions.
I am not flaming newbie questions.  I am a newbie myself.

I do have a  problem with the same questions coming up 3 times in a row.
With developers asking people to do simple logic.  And people not looking
for answers before they ask.

All I am asking is if you do not have an understanding of programming..
do some tutorials.  I am talking about questions like... how can I make the
page print "1 2 3 4 5" style of questions that come up because php is the
first thing that they looked at. This means the person hasn't even looked for
a basic tutorial.

I love the idea that the list is helpful, I love to answer all the 
questions that I
can, but some people want you to hold their hand.

the "help-Your-friends-forum" is "hold-your-hand-forum" or 
"spoon-feed-me-forum"
  occassionaly.

the manual is http://www.php.net/manual/en/ do a simple search. These guys
did a pretty good job here.

I spent $80 on a book so I can step though the different functions and keep
most of my questions off the list. If you spent time looking say so, I can 
respect
not being able to find something even if it is obvious.. I have done it myself.
I asked about contatination.  I was looking for a strcat function.

Maybe I should invest some time into an site called phpstarter.com and buy 
the domain
name.

I get quite a bit of help from people from this list on and off mailing.  I 
am not flaming
anyone in particular, I am just tired of people not bothering to spend any 
energy because
it is easier to get someone else to give you the answer.  That is what bugs me.


I'm a newbee too, have search for hours in the online-manual to find certain
answers. Also looked through the FAQ's, searched on PHPbuilder , Devshead
and other sites, but didn't find a clue on my problem.
It's frustrating spending hours one something a Pro would do in 5 secs!!!

If the mailinglists wasn't ment to be a "help-Your-friends-forum" what are
they then?

The problem with the manual is, that it is VERY hard to understand correct
for a newbee. For a little experienced developer it's no problem. But the

Re: [PHP] Payflow Pro

apparently opayc has Payflow as one of the processors.
Both the cheque and the card service.  If it changes then
you get a new driver.  Comes with source code I am sure.

If so, I would like to know what version of the SDK you are using, and
if you have knowledge of anyone at Verisign who deals with PHP.

So far, I have only found out that they don't support PHP.

Re: [PHP] includes

2001-03-12 Thread Rick St Jean

actually what I am doing is creating an area where users can manipulate data
on a page without having harmful code executed.  It is  faster to use a 
flat text file
than a database.  I will have these files named something else that will 
not be
able to be executed either.

I don't want it executed ever... but I do want html to work normally.. When 
they
want to change the contents of the file they use another page to write it.

It frees up more time for me to work on other projects rather than small edits.

Well, if one wanted to show the actual content of the file, for whatever

Developer Certifications only mean something if you are trying to get a 
government job.
I have only been asked for sites that I have done and been asked once for a 
sample
of code.  I would go to another recruiter if I were you.  Every place I 
have applied looked
at urls and code functionality.  I would never ever hire someone who had an 
MCSE.
I look at skills that someone has, and coding style.  I know high school 
students who
program better than people in our nation's top computer courses. IMHO 
certifications
are garbage.  I would rather hire someone who can learn then someone who 
was spoon
fed and just managed to take a stupid course that doesn't teach you what 
you need
to know.

BTW the microsoft certifications are worth nothing now, even  to microsoft.

specialization in PHP or PERL or .  If you specialize in PHP, what are
you going to do when there is no more PHP. (Not that we are expecting that).

 To summarize, judging a proficiency as it relates to a particular

Does anyone know of a company which is offering or planning to offer PHP
developer certifications? Arguments against certification programs aside[1],
there are a lot of companies which prefer certified developers, even to the
point of assuming a project done in ASP will be better than the same thing
done
in PHP simply because the ASP developers are Microsoft certified.

While this seems like an interesting sideline for a company like Zend, I'm
also
somewhat curious about whether an "Open Source" test could be developed.
It'd
certainly have to be quite different from normal tests and that move away
from
easily memorized answers would probably be a very good thing.

[1] We've all heard them before. I'm personally in favor only of
certifications
like certain devilishly hard Cisco exams which measure more than
multiple-choice memory.

Re: [PHP] PHP ide features...

2001-03-09 Thread Rick St Jean


I use a fantastic program called Textpad.  I love ultraedit also but 
what it lacks is a clip or snippets library.
The functions work well... as well as the macros.  The thing that the 
snippets or clip library needs is the ability
to have a hotkey tied to each one... the drawback of a macro is you have to 
retype them.,,, the big thing why
I dropped ultraedit is that the line numbers do not read the end of a 
line if a line goes past the edge of a page
and the word wrap is on the rest of that line gets a new number that throws 
everything else off.  Ability to use
unix regular expressions for searching.  Ability to reassign hotkeys is 
important... everyone wants to customize
their keys.



Something that I have also never seen and would like is to have a central 
repository for code snippets within a
company.  I think that something like this would be very unique and 
useful.  Everyone has a shared drive and
it load the definitions from there.  If it gets updated then everyone's 
would update.

Re: [PHP] payment

2001-03-09 Thread Rick St Jean

They were supposed to merge with Network 1, but they could not come up with 
the money.
I read something that said they filed for chapter 11.  But this means that 
he smaller company
Network 1 will absorb them or buy what is left. Those are the rumours I heard

Their website talks extensively about a merger with a 'Network 1' company
and now a buyout and a chapter 11 filing.  The buyout, or "merger" press
release says: "CyberCash Internet Payment Processing Service to Continue
without Interruption."

Is this incorrect?  When you say that it 'died', what are you referring to?

Use a for loop with

}

?

Or you can use a while loop with a counter... same thing.

Hi,
I use a product database for 2 sites, one of which adds sales tax and rounds
to the nearest .10 and on the other site there is no tax and also no
rounding.

I am unable to figure out why a price of 1000.00 is being displayed as 1.00
and any price over 1000 does the same thing. 100.00 works fine, as does all
other prices, this is the same with and without rounding.

Anything I should look for to solve this problem?

Something else to consider is that if someone is kinda smart they can place 
the

checksum or token in there.

Set a cookie on your site (perhaps the homepage?) and use code like this:

 if (!empty($UserHasCookies)) {
 echo 'Whew - you do have cookies';
 }

The idea is to set your code to assume that cookie support is disabled unless
it finds a cookie saying otherwise. That way it'll fail safely if someone
either doesn't have a cookie or their browser discards the cookie halfway
through. This may seem silly, but some people get *really* paranoid about
cookies. Combined with the increasingly good cookie management in modern
browsers and just about anything is possible - this is in fact the major
shortcoming to code like the above - it's possible for someone to accept one
cookie and deny another, so just being able to set a cookie once does not mean
that you will be able to set another.

Re: [PHP] removing and item out of a string

2001-03-06 Thread Rick St Jean

I really suck with Regular expression but what if you did a replacement on
1, and replaced it with 1
2, and replaced it with 2
3, and replaced it with 3

Kind of a cheap workaround.

Hello all,

I need to remove a comma from inside of 2 quotes ie "1,234.56" I need to 
change that to "1234.56"
Unfortunatly I can not do reg_replace(",","","1,234.56");
This is inside a csv file.

Re: [PHP] Please Help!!!! - Really BASIC stuff!

2001-03-06 Thread Rick St Jean

This will allow you to have more control over what pages get edited...

but you can use something a little easier like...
?
$filename= $page . ".php"
include ("$filename");
?

Hi Martin,

It's important to know that "Stuff" in the Url like this are just
variables.  For example :

   foo.php?fruit=applesdog=snoopyothers=huhmore=yep

Now with foo.php we can do this (a few exceptions) :

   echo "$dog would like to each some $fruit";

And in your case, you have $page so let's compare your $page variable
and include files accordingly.  We'll be using an if statement which can
be read about here :

   http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.php

This will do the job :

   ?php

   if ($page == 'visual') {

 echo 'h3Visual Stuff is Good!/h3';
 include 'visual.txt';

   } elseif ($page == 'audio') {

echo 'h3Welcome to Musical Section!/h3';
include 'audio.inc';

   } else {

echo 'h3Welcome to my site!/h3';
include 'default.php';

   }
   ?

Yes there are other ways but this is the simplest and you should (and
will!) learn to use if/elseif/else which will be useful in the future.

[PHP] mailing list.

2001-03-06 Thread Rick St Jean

Does this mailing list run off PHP?  Does anyone find it a pain to have to 
cut and paste the url of the
list into the to bar again and again?  I am using Eudora, and I am just 
wondering if it is me.  What
mail server are they using? qmail or sendmail?

Re: [PHP] passing a variable

2001-03-06 Thread Rick St Jean

George you are doing this backwards.  Someone posted the code to do this
the right way last night.  I would use the concatination of a third variable.

 $field = "blah";
 $loops = 10;
for ($i=0; $i  $loops; $i++)
{
 $displayField = $field . $i;
 echo "trtdinput type=text name=\"$field\"
 value=\"$displayField\"\n";
}

for ($i=0; $i  $fields; $i++)
{ $fieldName = "field$i";

 echo "trtdinput type=text name=\"$fieldName\"

Re: [PHP] Almost working Regex

2001-03-05 Thread Rick St Jean

Did you try escaping it with the \?


At 04:51 PM 3/6/01 +1000, Murray Shields wrote:
For data validation, I am using the following regex:

$Status = (ereg("^(^[A-Za-z0-9` !@#$%()=:;\"\'.?/^|{}-]*)(.*)$", $String,
$List));

This works perfectly for the moment. However, I need to add both square
brackets [] to the list of allowed characters above.

But when I add the closinjg bracket ], the regex stops working. There are no
errors, but it accepts any and all characters as valid.

How can I add these additional characters to the regex and avoid this
problem?

Thanks.
