I agree that in most cases it makes more sence at seing the webpages per
second benchmark rather then a timing of some artibtrary benchmarks that for
example seeing how long it take to pick prime numbers. Since in the end it
matters how quickly you can get the data to the user, in case of perl
programs there would be the overhead of spawning a cgi program, (unless
mod_perl is used) which would negate much of the speed improvment gained by
Perl.
All that said, loops are very very common in PHP, and are used with virtually
in any script that uses a database wether it be SQL or flatfile to loop
through the result set.
Since this appears to be a known performance issue, perphaps it is something
the PHP Development team could consider improving for PHP 5.0

I would have thought that any inherent 'slowness' of looping code is
insignificant compared to the time it takes to retrieve a row from a db.
Try comparing reading 10K rows from a DB using Perl and PHP would be a more
useful benchmark.

Perl is compiled internally prior to execution.

--- Begin Message ---Ok, I understand about the request headers. While searching the archives, I've seen many requests from many people asking similar questions. You even answered some. The thing is that while there's a function to get request headers (getallheaders() or the $HTTP_ vars), there's no function to list the response headers, although you can easily see them in a phpinfo() page. How hard it'll be to do that function? Why no one adds it to PHP already? I mean, phpinfo() already knows of the response headers, why not just write a function so that scripts can have access to them. That of course is better than writing a private header() replacement, and saving headers there for a later access.

Hi All,
I´m trying to register into a session an array which has returned from a
mysql_fetch_array function. But when I call $array it returns empty or something like
this.
Do you know how can I do this operation?
Regards!
Here go my scripts:
<?
# script1.php4
session_start();
$sql = "select * from table1";
$result = mysql_query ("$sql");
...
<form name="form1" method="post" action="test.php4?session_id=<?echo session_id();?>">
while ($array = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{...}
session_register ("array");
?>
<?
# script2.php4
session_start($session_id);
if (session_is_registered("array"))
{
while ($array) {
echo $array["fieldname"];
}
}
else { echo "Error<br>"; }
?>
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---$array only contains one of the result rows, not all of them. At least it's that way in your script. Try to register the variable before you start assigning values to it and you'll have to add each row into an array in order to save the entire result set. ---John Holmes... > -----Original Message----- > From: Douglas - IG [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 7:17 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP] seesion_register() with arrays > > Hi All, > > I´m trying to register into a session an array which has returned from a > mysql_fetch_array function.

I dont know too much about cache control, but some of the users who use
my script,
has problems with cookies. They are able to log in and the cookie is
set and they click a link and get booted out.
This past week, we noticed that when we commented out
header ("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header ("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header ("Pragma: no-cache");
they had no problems. Im looking for others who had similar
experiences, and a fix if possible.
Im not sure if its because the expires time is too far back. The
cookie's lifetime is 1 month.
Thanks

It did not already exist, so I tried creating it, setting permissions manually and then that part worked. However, other issues popped right up, as follows: 1. I'm trying to 'include' PHP files in my scripts that contain handy functions I have prepared, like this: include 'subdir/include_file.php'; When I set the permissions on this file to read only for everybody, the include failed - I had expected only read permission to be necessary to include the file - I had to give it execute permission! Why? 2. What are the minimum permissions necessary on files to do the following with them: a) 'include' them in other PHP files [PHP] (r?) b) open them for reading only [PLAIN TEXT] (r?) c) open a new file for writing only (no prior file) [PLAIN TEXT] (w?) d) open a file for writing only when it already exists [PLAIN TEXT] (w?) e) 'unlink' a file [PLAIN TEXT] (w?) f) 'rename' a file [PLAIN TEXT] (w?) 3. What are the dangers of giving files permissions such as this (does it make my site insecure by giving too much permission, is what I'm asking)? 4. I have heard that you can impersonate different user levels when doing such operations so that you give the file different ownership - can you, should I, how do I, and what dangers are there? Bear in mind this script will be executed from the Web page as available to all and sundry. What I'm trying to do is: a) Read a text file and display contents as Web page b) Get information from the user c) Read another text file, building a new temp file as I go, and modifying the data relevant to the user input d) Deleting the old file and renaming the new to replace it Sorry for all the questions, trying to get a grip on it. I'm used to C(++) and local programs, so I don't get this problem {:v) -- -------------------------------------------- _ _ o o Jason Teagle < [EMAIL PROTECTED] v ----------------------------------------------- End Message ---

Thanks Dan, but I don't think I'm explaining well.
Submitting that form will produce, from most browsers, a request that has in
one of it's headers:
content-type: x-www-form-urlencoded
... the variable $Foo will automatically be available within PHP for use in
any script that form is directed to, however, I have to write a script that
will accept raw data, it's input comes from a server that is not kind enough
to put in the header content-type: x-www-form-urlencoded and so is not
automatically being passed by PHP into the script.
The page content is just raw data like this ...
foo=boo&name=joe&action=jump
... but php does not pass them into variables as content-type is not
x-www-form-urlencoded
The answer could be "tell the people to add the content type" but they say
"by the end of june" and I need to read this stuff today!
Sorry if my explanation inadequate, I'm trying my best.
Thanks
Simon

--- Begin Message ---I do not know whether this is a question for this list, but if not perhaps someone can tell me where to raise it. I am designing a web site which has a number of pages. One of these provides the facility for the user to log onto a mysql database. Other web pages allow the user to query and update different tables in the database. I used the mysql_pconnect function in the login page and assumed that the connection would automatically be available to all other pages in the site as they are invoked, but find that I have to include it in every page that access the data base. Is there any way of caryying the login information from one web page to the next in global variables so that the username and password entered in the login screen is available to all other web pages in the site or do I have to ask the user to re-enter this information at every screen?

--- Begin Message ---Please cc me on replies. Thanks. Anybody happen to have any leads to a Folio (4.1) reader/parser/converter to something PHP integrates with? folio2xml folio2CSV folio2sql . . . A client's client needs to be able to upload Folio files and have them converted/integrated to the web. They sent me a sample DEF, FFF, and RTF file. Near as I can figure, it would be a few days to hack up a parser for the DEF/FFF files. Or, if all the content can survive the RTF output, I'm pretty sure there's a *LOT* of RTF readers "out there", right? There are only about 1000 articles, and I suspect they have only one or two layout formats in them, but am not 100% sure that's how Folio works, much less that I'm right they didn't go hog-wild in formatting, since I've seen one (1) sample file so far. I am not clear why the "Live Publish Migration Tool" I've seen mentioned in my 5-minute Google has not already pre-empted them hiring us in the first place... Anybody know what would be the "catch" to that solution? I'd be more than happy to save the client a bundle and have them just use that if it works well... Disclaimer: I have no idea how Folio works, its relationship to Infobase, if any, nor just how much headache I'm letting myself in for. Any words of wisdom are most welcome. Please cc me on replies.

I have found an alternate way of achieving what I want, but I'm wondering if
there was an easier way. I have a PHP file that builds a Web page that
includes forms. The forms are built dynamically based on the contents of a
file, and thus there may be one or two or more forms on the page at any
time. This means that I have controls named $btnChoice1 (first form),
$btnChoice2 (second form), etc. (radio buttons). All of these forms are of a
similar format, and so lead to the same PHP page in their action - a
parameter is passed in the URL to identify which form it came from.
When the form passes to its action file, another PHP file, there are two
ways to get form data: $_POST["control_name"] or $control_name. The problem
is, the control name I need has to be built dynamically based on which form
it came from. So I need this:
$btnName = "btnChoice" . $form_number ;
But now I have the tricky bit - $_POST[$btnName] doesn't work because it
requires nested substitution of variables, and similarly I can't echo
$btnName because that will of course use "btnChoice2" instead of the
_contents_ of the control named btnChoice2.
Is it possible to 'dereference' (whatever the term is) the variable name
twice? I tried
$$btnName
in the stupid hope that it would first interpret that to
$btnChoice2
and then interpret that to the contents of the control, but of course it
failed.
I ended up using foreach on $_POST to pull out control names and their
contents, and comparing the control name to my built-up name - but I was
wondering if there's a more elegant way of doing what I wanted?
Promise my next question to the group will be short {:v)
