the error message is quite explicit. By the time it reaches the line 11
in index.php4
you already sent something to output, so if you have on index.php4:11
something like
header(), setCookie() or session_start() which imply sending a header,
is no longer
possible [ you cannot send a header after you already started sending
the body ].

Alain,
When PHP parses a file, it treats the stuff that's not in <?php?> blocks
as though each line were a print or echo statement. So your whole file
will be compressed and sent to the browser.

Thanks, I see. How about headers ? Do they need to be compressed, too; in
other words, do headers "belong" to the output ?

a HTTP response is made of response header(s) and the response body.
Only the body
is compressed, and this is signaled in the headers so the User Agent
will know
not to stare to a bunch of binary data :)

Teodor,
Looked at it from that point of view, the question was pretty stupid ! ;)

Where can I get the specs on the compression algorithm? Is it specified in a
RFC?

erm, it's gzip I guess.
PHP uses zlib to send compressed output, afaik [i.e. you must have
--with-zlib
in order to use the output compression handler ]
-- teodor
Check the http 1.1 rfc - http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2616.html
It links to the gzip file format rfc - http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1952.html

How about RTFR? :)
(Read the ...... RFC.)
Really, when you've read http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2616.html you'll be
able to understand a lot more about how http requests and responses work,
and how stuff like compression fits into the picture, etc, etc. Basically a
must-read for anyone serious about working with the web on a technical
level. (That'd be you, php'ers :)

There are plenty of situations where it's useful. For example, if you're
displaying data in rows and want to shade every other row:
if ( 1 == $row_count % 2 ) { echo "<tr><td>$data</td></tr>"; }
else { echo "<tr><td class='shade-1'>$data</td></tr>"; }
Or if you have a data set you want to display in an HTML table across
multiple rows, you'll probably find it useful for determining when to put
<tr> or </tr> as you loop through your data set and use it to calculate
whether you will need to fill cells at the end of the table with
non-breaking spaces. There are many other applications, but these two come
up pretty frequently in web applications.

According to your SQL statement that doesn't appear to be true. According
to your SQL statement you'll return two fields: option_type and code.

I'd avoid using array_values() and array_pop(). Simply do this:
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) )
{
$option_type = $row[option_type];
$code = $row[code];
echo "$option_type $code<br>";
}
Hopefully that'll be enough to get you going.

Downloaded the Encoder testdrive and installed it with a license file
(zend_encoder.dat). Did what the manual stated, except that I installed it
on E:\program files\zend instead of C:\program files\zend (I did modify the
install_license.reg before installing it into the registration database)
When I run the zendenc.exe, I get a dialog stating that it cannot find the
license data. I'm able to specify it manually, but then I get another
errormessage saying "Error in saving configuration settings".
Anyone else had this problem?

Hi... I have a problem with PHP Authenticate....
...if I enter user/pw wrong the first time it stops and I have to close/open
browser.!
I've tried to unset $PHP_AUTH_USER but then it just loops...
if(!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)) {
Header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\".: Privat område :.\"");
Header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
echo "<br><font face=\"arial, helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\"
color=\"#0060CF\">Secured Area!</font>";
exit;
} else {
$PHP_AUTH_PW_ENCRYPTED = crypt("$PHP_AUTH_PW", "wP");
$connect = mysql_connect($hostname,$username,$password) or die ("Klarer
ikke koble til MqSQL db...");
$query = "SELECT * FROM forfatter";
$query .= " where id = $PHP_AUTH_USER";
$result = mysql_db_query($db, $query);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$id = $row["id"];
$navn = $row["navn"];
$pw = $row["pw"];
}
if (($id == $PHP_AUTH_USER) AND ($pw == $PHP_AUTH_PW_ENCRYPTED))
$bruker_ok = true;
} else

Has anyone seen a good lession or code example on paging records from MS Sql
7? Say I have 300 records and
want to break them down to 10 per page using [previous | next ] and a list
of page numbers at the bottom.
tia
Scott,
As far as I know, MS SQL supports a syntax like this:
SELECT TOP 10 FROM table_name WHERE etc etc
However, I don't know how to make it start from a certain offset; I guess MS
SQL's documentation, especially the T-SQL doc, should help.

I'm pretty sure there's no other way to do it but to read them all in and
only display what you need.
AFAIK, MSSQL doesn't support paging itself, but relies on the
ADO driver to do this. If you make an reference to an ADO object in
VBScript, you can set how many rows are in a 'page', then tell it to jump to
a specific page, to jump to that group of rows.
My terminology is probably wrong above, haven't used ADO/VBScript stuff
in awhile. But that's the gist.

You may want to use Metabase that lets you pick the range of rows that are
returned by a SELECT query. It works not only with Microsoft SQL server
but also many other databases supported by PHP.
http://phpclasses.UpperDesign.com/browse.html/package/20
You may also want to try this query result table display class that displays
select query result rows in HTML tables and may generate automatically links
to move go to the Previous, Next, First, Last or any other page of query
results.

AFAIK this is more of a SQL thing than a DB specific thing. Just look up the
LIMIT equivilent in MS SQL (should just be LIMIT) and use that for paging, once
you get the hang of it it's quite easy.
You can look through my paging class at www.miester.org/software - it goes one
deeper and does [ prev ] [1] [2] [3] [ next ] and then only shows X ammount of
pages so when you get to page 10 it would show [9] [10] [11]
Hope that helps.

AFAICT there is no 'LIMIT' feature in MS SQL products (TOP and supposedly BOTTOM,
but BOTTOM has never worked for me and TOP doesn't seem to work on all versions).
How is metabase handling this? Pulling everything, looping thru, and only
returning the requested rows?
Yes, I could log in/download/uncompile and spend the next 20 minutes finding it
for myself, but I'm in the midst of work! ;) And getting and explanation from
the horse's mouth might be more instructive anyway. !!!

No, Metabase use server side cursors. It just seeks for the first row that
it is requested and starts fetching rows from there. It works on MS SQL 6.5
on which the TOP clause is not available.

Ok, now that you got your explanation you may download Metabase to look in
for the details.

Well, if you use Metabase you can tell the range of rows that you want to
retrieve just by calling MetabaseSetSelectedRowRange($database_handle,$first,$limit)
before executing your query.
AFAIK, Metabase is the only abstraction layer, not just for PHP but for any
other language, that I know that provide this facility portably that is
very important for Web application development. Enjoy and be proud of
using it.

Hi I have a couple of questions. One about hosting and the other about IP
addresses. The first on the IP's.........
I have been speaking to a company that I am looking at getting a dedicated
server from. They ONLY do one IP address per server and use name-based
hosting. I have asked for dedicated IP's, but their answer has been that
all hosting companies are going to have to go to name-based hosting now.
What is everyone's feeling on this? Years ago, the company I was with used
name-based and I remember that the search engines did not like this
On to hosting, the above server is a Cobalt Raq 4i. Does anyone else on the
list use one of these and what do you think? I want to make sure that it's
easy enough to compile latest php and mysql whenever I want to
Thanks for any advice
Ade
Hi,
name-based hostig is quite okay but you shoulsd know that the
cobald raq needs an extra ip for each site offering anonymous ftp and
using ssl-certificate !!
i installed php4.04pl1 and mysql 3.22.32 ( its easy and straightforward )
[ have a look at cobalt-users list ]
greetings

Search engines handle name-based sites just fine now. Very old browsers (I
don't recall what generation) are not able to access name-based sites, but
that's probably not justification for needing individual IPs for each site.
If you plan on hosting many sites and need anonymous FTP or SSL for these
sites you'll need more IP addresses. IP addresses can be hard to come by
for some hosting companies so if you actually need them you should shop
around or explain your situation to the hosting company you're talking to.
There are *tons* of web hosting companies that will lease or colocate a RaQ4
for a reasonable price with more than 1 IP.

Until about six months ago when I joined another business I did a lot of
business as an independent Cobalt consultant. You shouldn't have any
problem installing PHP and MySQL with whatever configuration options you
want. In fact, I currently run several older generation RaQs that use the
Mips architecture instead of the x86 architecture used by the RaQ4 and I've
been installing development versions of PHP and MySQL as they were released
every few weeks. You may want to visit www.cobalt.com and sign up for the
cobalt-users mailing list and/or bookmark a mailing list archive of it like
the one found at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/. As far as the RaQ4 itself
goes, for less_than_expert Linux system administrators, the GUI makes
certain functions very easy to do (add users, websites, control DNS), but if
you're comfortable doing things from the commandline or you expect heavy CPU
usage or you plan on installing a lot of programs and modifying the system
or you need redundancy and failover it might not be the best server for you.
With that said, it's a great server [appliance] for basic web and email
hosting and less than enterprise level database usage.

I use a RaQ3 and have no problems running PHP and MySQL. I started out
using one IP but the biggest problem I found was that in order to view the
site or make changes to it, the domain name must resolve to the server
before it would work. I decided it would be best for me to assign each site
an IP and go with it. I am not sure who you are talking to about a dedicated
RaQ but look into http://www.4webspace.com. I have a RaQ3 with 100 gig
transfer and 30 IP's for $110 a month. They do have RaQ4's for a little more
money.

Where do I make a formal request for a feature? In Perl or Ruby, I
could have said:
foo ({ 'var1' => 'value', 'var2' => 'value'});
and it is so much more elegant than having to say:
$hash = array (
'var1' => 'value',
'var2' => 'value'
);
foo ($hash);
elegance is everything, man.

lux in latin means 'light' right? :) let me enlighten then :-P
foo ($hash = array('var1'=>'value', 'var2'=>'value'));
should work.
Now, I don't undestand why exactly do you need references. By default
everything is passed in a referenced manner, if I undestood correct the
explanation Zeev wrote right after 4.0 was out, or so.
Don't take references like something that will boost your skript speed
to 200%.
Use them only when you need them, and to find out when you actually need
them
check out an article on references at zend.com.
Now, let me tell you that somehow I agreed with you :) cause I love
Python way
of dealing with arrays, but we are in PHP, so we have to figure PHP way,
not
<your-fav-lang> way.

And just to turn up the wattage a little further (hey, I work for the
University of California whose motto is 'Fiat Lux', menaing either
Lux drives an Italian car or 'Let there be light')...
You don't need the $hash in that function call unless you need to use
it later on in your main program, so you can just say:
foo (array('var1'=>'value', 'var2'=>'value'));
which is basically the same as the Perl or Ruby (??? never heard of
that...) call above, with the addition of array(...). I use the
function(array('param1'=>'value', ...))
syntax a lot instead of individual parameters in function calls. I
don't have to remember function argument order that way.

that won't work (Lux's complaint) when foo() is declared function foo
(&$hash)
cause PHP cannot extract the reference of an array unbound to any PHP
variable.
There is only one exception, which is for objects created with new.

But the feature is useless :)
Let me elaborate:
You declared your function as
function foo (&$hash)
That is you take a reference to that parameter ($hash). That's only
useful if you want to modify that parameter in such a way that the caller
also notices that modification.
Now if you pass an anonymous array to the function, you could modify
that, but after your function exits that array is automatically
destroyed, before the caller can do anything with it.
So if you don't have a good reason to use a reference in that place (I
very much assume you don't), use normal pass-by-value. In PHP4 that's
just as fast as pass-by-reference (read
http://www.zend.com/zend/art/ref-count.php)

Here, I removed the reference, so we can stop fussing over it (it wasn't the
question to begin with), and here's an example of a potential use for this
(a stupid example, but still...). I'm not weighing out the benefits of
references, I'm striving to achieve the cleanest and most elegant code I
can, because the larger the project, the more code you have to read, and
the uglier it can get.
That's where a language like Ruby excels. There's less syntactical crap,
it's very easy to read, and it's caused me to consider switching to eRuby
(like mod_perl, allows <% ruby this, ruby that %> in your html) because it
is structurally easier and more geared towards larger projects.
(that last statement will probably get me murdered on a PHP list)
But honestly, the only problem is finding a host running eRuby that I don't
have to maintain myself. I'm lazy, after all.

sure
here's the ruby page: http://www.ruby-lang.org/
here's another ruby site: http://www.rubycentral.com/
there's also a really good book you can find info about here:
http://pragmaticprogrammer.com/ruby/index.html
it's not really used much yet anywhere except japan, where it's
actually overtaken python in popularity!

works, rewritten to
echo a (array ("href" => "http://www.google.com/"),
img (array (
"src" => "http://www.google.com/images/title_homepage4.gif",
"alt" => "Visit Google!",
"border" => "0")

So it basically boils down to "array (a => b)" versus "[a => b]"
And I personally feel the array () notation is at least as nice as the []
one. Well, it's a matter of taste. But it certainly isn't harder to read,
not detrimental on cleanness and elegance of the code.

Short answer is to see
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eregi-replace.php. Usage examples can
be found right on php.net. See longer answer below.
Previously "phpLover" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I should have said use ereg_replace(). It matches text using regular
expressions (regular expressions allow for complex matching) in a
case-sensitive manner. Depending on the specifics of what you're attempting
it may be of use. You could use it to replace certain characters within a
specific part of the HTML source page (but ignore the same characters within
other parts of the page) with capital letters (like you described). If you
simply want to replace all matches within the page str_replace() is a better
choice. Regular expressions are a more difficult concept to master than a
lot of other concepts within PHP so you may want to look at some tutorials
or books on the subject.

I'm going to be trying to connect to the native DB2 database in a AS/400
So far thats all I know about the IBM side.
Can someone give me a short update on what options I have ?
TIA !!!
-pete
There's been a lot of talk about this recently. Check the archives for the
last 2 months, and PHPBuilder.com
Last I heard, you needed DRDA(DB2 Connect) installed, as well as
the runtime client.
Also on the client - DB2 Application Development package. Use this to
compile PHP --with-ibm-db2=<path>. Make sure you run the CATALOG
commands on the client so that it can find the AS400 database.
'Luck!

Hi,
I am selecting data using the below and trying to insert it into a mail, it
does everything except send the data selected, anyone have an idea?
$SQLStatement = "SELECT * FROM Orders Where Status='N' Order by OrderID";
$SQLConn = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
$db = mysql_select_db($dbase, $SQLConn);
$SQLResult = mysql_query($SQLStatement);
$num_rows=mysql_num_rows($SQLResult);
for ($i=0; $i<$num_rows; $i++)
{
mysql_data_seek($SQLResult, $i);
$array=mysql_fetch_array($SQLResult);
$content=printf("First Name: %s\nLast Name: %s\n",$array['FirstName'],
$array['LastName']);
}
mail($MAIL, "Order", $content , "From:[EMAIL PROTECTED]");
I know it is working to a degree because it prints out the data on the
resulting page and sends a blank email, it just doesn`t put it in the email.
TIA

Re-read the documentation for "printf". You want to use sprintf() here.

I think your logic is wrong here, if you are trying to send one email with
all the results from the DB query in it.
Each time you run through the for loop, you are assigning a new value to
$contents, rather than appending new information to it. I think you need
$content .= printf(blah blah);
or without the printf complexity
$content .= "First Name: " . $array["FirstName"] . "\nLast Name: " .
$array["LastName"] . "\n";
You'ld need to ensure $content is empty before starting the for loop, of
course.

Ade,
You can try something like this:
while (list($column_name, $row_value) = each($row)) {
echo "$column_name,$row_value <br>" ;
}
// loop thru each row and get an array of values for each row, listing them
// as name:value pairs
the above would be for mysql_fetch_array($array, MYSQL_ASSOC)
for other array elements such as MYSQL_ASSOC, MYSQL_NUM, and MYSQL_BOTH.
see: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-fetch-array.php

Hello!
I'm trying to configure PHP with Verisign PayFlow PRO support on my server.
I'm running FreeBSD 4, Apache 1.3.12, mod_ssl, openSSL, and mySQL 3.23.32.
I downloaded the newest release of PHP (4.0.4pl2) and tried compiling it,
using the ./configure --with-pfpro=[dir] thing and I get the following
error:
/usr/home/arcwebn/signio/freebsd3/lib/libpfpro.so: undefined reference to
`pthread_mutex_unlock'
/usr/home/arcwebn/signio/freebsd3/lib/libpfpro.so: undefined reference to
`pthread_self'
/usr/home/arcwebn/signio/freebsd3/lib/libpfpro.so: undefined reference to
`pthread_mutex_destroy'
/usr/home/arcwebn/signio/freebsd3/lib/libpfpro.so: undefined reference to
`pthread_mutex_lock'
/usr/home/arcwebn/signio/freebsd3/lib/libpfpro.so: undefined reference to
`pthread_mutex_init'
I've never done anything like this before, so I'm not really sure what's
goin' on.
Any insight into the problem would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Solaris. You're kind of SOL until they do. See the user comments on
www.php.net/pfpro for why you're SOL.

No need to get upset :) just stating MHO (nothing personal).
In your own words you say : "People have taken a chance with me"
and that's really what they did. Cause you know what happens to
backup plans that don't have backup plans that don't...
I'm assuming that there may be an audience for this kind of hosting
but personally I wouldn't host my site under such circumstances.
Prices are so cheep today and you can get so much for so less with
many ISP's that have a department of people running the show.
As for the Service, well, if you chose a company and don't like the service
you can always go somewhere else. Most companies that I worked with
gave amazing service.
Today I work with PhenomiNET and the service is simply amazing.
you can look at what they offer here :
http://www.weberdev.com/index.php3?GoTo=phenominet/prices.htm
This is your one stop shop for hosting. WeberDev.com is hosted there
and I can tell you that their service is amazing. They are fast, reliable
and more than anything, very professional (specially in PHP / MySQL).

I shouldn't even reply to this...
Yes I would host with me.
Have you ever heard of a backup plan. People that would step in if
something happens to me? People that I trust to keep the company going if
it fails.
With all due respect, how do people host with a company that doesn't give a
rats ass about them or their business. How many big companies redirect your
call, or brush you away when problems occur. I been over backwards for my
clients. Providing better service then many of the bigger companies out
there. That is why people do and will continue to host with me. Like I
said, I plan on hiring people in the near future. Things take time to
evolve.
I am not saying that my company is for everyone. If you don't like a one
man shop then don't go there. People have taken a chance with me and have
not been disappointed like so many times before.

I am going to have to disagree on this one.
I run a successful (and profitable) hosting company(http://www.rolet.com).
My employees total 1 (me, myself and I). The number of clients hosted is
roughly 120. I provide a wide variety of services on Linux, FreeBSD, NT,
and W2K. Yes it is hard to believe that 1 person can be available 24x7, or
not take vacations, but this is what I do and LOVE every second of it. I
value customer satisfaction and strive to provide that best Internet
services possible. For me this is a career for life, not just a job. So I
do believe that 1 person can be available 24x7 and not take vacations.
Don't get me wrong, some days it is tough. I would like to have other
employees in the future, but don't mind the sacrifices taken to get there.

Chris,
This all sounds good but for one thing: I firmly believe that one man
with a root password is not enogh to look after even one client. I have
hosted with 3 one-man-companies, and it always came to the point where I
couldn't reach someone for a week, or I waited for 3 months, only to be
granted connect privileges to the mysql database - no offense meant! I
think it's just too much for one man, you cannot be available 24/7, and
you will want holidays.
Still, a PHP-specialized hosting environment would be worth much.
Cheers,
Ben

I understand your concerns, but with this type of logic this mailing list
not not be around. Niether would Linux, Apache, MySql or anyother open
source tool that so many people utilize today. We would all be on NT
instead of Linux and using IIS with ASP instead of PHP. Do think Ramsus
when he started out on PHP/FI was thinking I am only one person I shouldn't
even try to make it because the big guys are more reliable. Or Linus
thought the same thing when he made his first kernel. I really doubt it,
and neither did I when I decided to take a chance learn PHP/FI on Linux
using Apache about 5 years ago. Look at where they are today and the
bazillion people who rely on the tools that one or two people took the time
and a chance on developing.

That's comparing apples to oranges. If all of Rasmus's computers fail
while he's on holiday for 3 weeks, who cares? (Sorry Rasmus :)
If some machine at a hosting company shows glitches while the only admin
is sick, things will be very bad for the hosted people/companies.

[script at end]
Does it seem strange that although object members can
store functions, they can't be used as methods?
That is, we can have
$TestObject->mTestMember = create_function('','echo "TestMember<br>";');
but we can't do
$TestObject->mTestMember();
Can I get around this using clever placement of {}'s or ()'s?
Or do I have to make two separate calls, such as
$temp = $TestObject->mTestMember;
$temp();
At first glance, it seems like a parser problem.
But I couldn't get it to go away by placing ()'s
and {}'s... Perhaps I wasn't being clever enough.
Can anyone help? It seems odd that accessing members
as methods wouldn't be allowed, but variable functions
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.variable-functions.php PHP Manual, Chap 12)
would be.
On the other hand, it's not safe to willy-nilly be
introducing methods to a class. But then again,
I can still do
$TestObject->mPreviouslyUndeclaredMember = 'Huh?';
so, I don't buy this line of reasoning.
Bug or language feature or other?
Thanks,
TSB
Here's a script which illustrates this problem...
<?php
class TestClass {
function TestMethod() {
echo "TestMethod<br>";
}
function Init() {
$this->mTestMember = create_function('','echo "TestMember<br>";');
}
var $mTestMember;
}
$Tc = new TestClass;
//case 1: works (standard method invocation)
$Tc->TestMethod();
$Tc->Init();
//case 2: doesn't work (member as method)
//$Tc->mTestMember(); //doesn't work
//case 3: works (two-step)
$holder = $Tc->mTestMember;
$holder();
?>
What would your advice be for learning MySQL with PHP on an
Apache server? I know a little Perl and am beginning to learn PHP.
I'm more of a designer than a programmer (not enough geek genes).
I went through the tutorial at WebMonkey and have it all installed
and working, but the tutorial isn't able to go in depth about the
basic functions of MySQL. Is this something better learned from
a book? Suggestions for books and/or tutorials online would be
appreciated.

Hi, can anyone point me towards an easy way to generate forms to update a
mysql database?
I've seen some sites where I can specify a list of table fields and the
datatype for each, and get an output of:
1. the sql to create the table
2. a php form that can be used to update the table
problem is I can't find the site now :)
has anyone else found this?

jaxon
Hello,
How can i upload a file from a client to server ? I tryed copy() but it
doesint works.
Paul
I don't mean to bash php in any way (as in the Ruby plugs in my last
post). I use it because it has so many advantages over other more
system-oriented not web-oriented languages for this type of work. It's
fantastic.
I see so much enthusiasm on the web for this language, a significant
codebase, feature list (I'm not sure, but does ASP generate SWF files,
PDF files, support IMAP, etc), and it has a lot of great developers
dedicated to it. But we need to be constantly self-critical, or we
won't see areas we can improve in.
I also feel it's good to know more than one language, so you get more
than one approach and you're more adaptable to situations that PHP (or
whatever your language of choice may be) can't work in.
(And I'm far too opinionated for my own good)

To be fair, PHP doesn't either. You have to get the packages, compile them,
and dl() or compile them into your PHP. Most, if not all, of the
capabilities
of PHP can be had in ASP, through third party objects. Major problem is
cost for most people.

WRT web programming, there's probably very little that PHP *can't* do,
but your point is still well taken.

No problem. :)
Speaking of "other languages" - anyone have any input or comments on REBOL?

I don't think anyone will take offense to your mentioning the advantages
of another language (especially another open source language). PHP
definately has it's worts and there's no point in sticking our heads in
the sand and pretending they are not there.

Exactly. If the volume of this list is any indicator, I'd say PHP has
grown quite a bit in the past six months.

Definately. Knowing Java or C will change the way your write code in Perl
or PHP (and vice versa). I've written code in everything from ASM to toy
scripting languages (by "toy scripting languages", I mean the small
embedded scripting languages found in some applications - not PHP) and I'm
a better programmer because of it.
(Ruby does look very cool...I need to pick up the "Pragmatic Programmers
Guide to Ruby" - the guys that wrote it also wrote "The Pragmatic
Programmer" which is a great book.)

Ok, well from the looks of it I've got it working, thanks to whoever
pointed out the conf.php.net archive of the slideshow. The sample files
from that slide work fine, but I can't get any of the other samples I've
snagged to work. Maybe they're what's broken, but I don't see how.
Now that that's over with, can anybody point me towards a good tutorial
on XSLT with PHP?

The quite simpliest method is to put appropriate directives in a .htaccess
file in appropriate (e.g. to be protected) directories like this:
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthUserFile /www/users/users
AuthGroupFile /www/users/groups
AuthType Basic
Require registeredusers
Then all you have to do is to regenerate the user and the group file
according to your needs.
Another way to do this directly with MySQL is to use the apache auth_mysql
module which allows you to store authentication data in a MySQL DB. See
http://mysql.com/downloads/contrib.html
and
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ-G.html
for more info.

I must be missing something while I had no problem getting
perl and SSI working getting PHP to work is eluding me
for some reason. I have added this to httpd.conf
can someone enlighten me on what may be missing
# And for PHP 4.x, use:
#
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
if I call it like http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/one.php
with the shebang line #!php.exe
I get the following error
No input file specified
if I call it without the shebang I get
the Internal Server Error
Error logs indicate the the #! is needed
if I call it in the web root as
http://127.0.0.1/one.php4
it prints the code to the screen
any insight welcome
Thanks
going to RRTFM :)
Do you normally have #!perl.exe as your shebang?
Normally I'd see something like #!/usr/local/bin/perl or
#!/usr/local/bin/php
not sure of pathing issues on Windows for that.
#!c:\program files\php4\php.exe
?

I'm not even sure that the shell escape is even used in win32 perl - I think
it's done via a regular file association. I clearly remember setting it to
#!/some/fake/rubbish one time as a test and it still worked fine
I imagine the same would go for php.exe

So maybe he just needs to associate .php files with php.exe?
