You can use them in the name attribute like you said, but not in the id.
As id's all need to be unique, just output an incremental number next to
the text in the id property, sans [ characters.

I vote we scrap this list. Anyone with a question, just go to Tedd's

Don't use [] in an ID - it doesn't belong there.
If you are not using the ID for a hook, just drop it - the ID doesn't
need to be there.
The name attribute is where you want the [] to post an array, ID does
not get sent in a post.
Correction -- name is Ok and where you should put the [].
I must be missing how that is a correction of my post ...

Don't use [] in an ID - it doesn't belong there.
If you are not using the ID for a hook, just drop it - the ID
doesn't need to be there.
The name attribute is where you want the [] to post an array, ID

No, that was a correction to my post where I suggested that you were
not correct, but you were. I was the one not being correct until I
corrected myself and then agreed with you, understand?

I want to created a window schedule a task that will run every 2 minutes and
run my php script(www.domain.com/script.php). But I need to know how to
create a php.exe that I can select as a window schedule a task so that the
php.exe file can execute www.domain.com/script.php at a time interval.
Solution please

I have found Window's task scheduler utterly insufficient. I understand,
and agree with, your desire to keep things native but I have thrown that
away for my scheduled events. I swear bt VisualCron [

Solution please
You don't create a php.exe file, one should already be there from when
you installed php.

I found this command from one guy for importing Oracle's dump to MySQL

But, v is for verbose and f is for force continuation.
Anyone worked with Oracle and MySQL?
Yep, and there's no way that will ever work except for the very simplest
table and data.
The datatypes are different (mysql doesn't have varchar2, timestamp
formats are different though oracle lets you change that).
You'll need to do a schema-only dump, convert it to the mysql format,
then worry about converting the data.

Yes, before writing the mail I had this confusion but as my
max_packet_allowed was default to 16M I couldn't have been able to continue
with 28M dump from Oracle.
Now that I have the schema in MySQL already. What can I do to get data only
from Oracle's DB?
There are lots of software tools out there but I want to learn it from the
base. I cant afford to buy any software either.

Hello,
I have been working on this problem for some time now and I can't seem to resolve it. Everything I have found on google and php.net says I can connect to an LDAP server with SSL by setting "TLS_REQCERT never" in ldap.conf. I want to eliminate certs from the picture for now just to confirm I can make the connection which is why I have "TLS_REQCERT never" set.
I added that setting to my ldap.conf and my test code now works from the command line but it does not work when I call it from a browser. Here is my test:
<?php
$ldaphost = "ldaps://my.ldap.server";
//ldap_set_option(NULL, LDAP_OPT_DEBUG_LEVEL, 7);
// Connecting to LDAP
$ldapconn = ldap_connect($ldaphost)
or die("Could not connect to {$ldaphost}");
ldap_set_option($ldapconn, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
ldap_set_option($ldapconn, LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS, 0);
echo var_dump(@ldap_bind($ldapconn, "cn=Keithl, ou=Users, o=LH"));
It's hard to know - you're suppressing errors.
Add these 2 lines to your script:
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', true);
Then get rid of the @ in front of ldap_bind.
Use http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-error.php to capture the
error message and search for it.

I just saw that mhash is disabled in the spec file for php5 if SUSE version

Simple question, does it do any harm?
If they decided to do that it's best to ask suse (or on the opensuse
lists if you're using that flavour).
It may just be because it's deprecated but it could be for some other
reason (eg binary compatibility issues or licensing issues or .. ).

Hi all,
I'm unsure how to describe this but I'll try.
The following code works fine in its own PHP script;
$mkdircmd = '/bin/mkdir /homes/'.$uid;
exec($mkdircmd);
But when placed in a larger PHP script being part of the
ldap_provisioning module in Drupal, the Drupal GUI is blank until I do;
$mkdircmd = "'/bin/mkdir /homes/'.$uid";
... were I surrounded the variable with "", which causes it to not work.
I'm totally unsure how to approach this and am hoping syntax
adjustments will fix it.

Should fix the syntax.
I guess you've already solved the permissions problem on the /homes/
folder (normally the web server would not be able to create such a path
because of permission issues).
Blank GUI - no idea. Anything in the error logs (php or apache) ?
Maybe asking on a drupal specific list would be a better idea for that one.

This might sound stupid because I've not played with Drupal, but what's
wrong with using the mkdir command in PHP instead of the exec call?

Or if the script is running as a user/group that has write permissions
to the dir/file that your trying to chown.

chown will only work if the script is running as root which I doubt your
drupal site will be.

chmod may allow that, but not chown.
server:~# groupadd test
server:~# useradd a -g test
server:~# useradd b -g test
server:~# mkdir /test

I believe it depends upon the operating system and version of the
operating system.

Hi all,
For any one following this thread, here is how I worked around the
apache/php/chown limitation.
script snippet (and if any one has a more elegant style, please share
as I am an amateur script kiddie).
$path = "/homes".$username;
$chowncmd = "/usr/bin/sudo /bin/chown ";
mkdir($path);
chmod($path, 0775);
exec($chowncmd.$username. " ".$path);
I modified /etc/sudoers;
#Defaults requiretty - I added the comment.
apache ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/chown - added this line.
