Gidday Justin,
For us guys that don't get dates very often, the subject is one of intense
fascination! I answered a bunch of
these questions a couple of weeks back, and reproduce that discussion below. Also some
comments/responses to you
interspersed:-

=to ease the effort of repeated activities employ/implement a function (as you say,
saves time). Fortunately PHP
and SQL/MySQL provide us with plenty, out of the box.

> in the wrong order... so 2001-12-25 is listed before 2001-12-26, etc),
> and more importantly, comparing two dates (3 days away, 3 days ago, 3
> hours ago, etc etc).
=the reason many people find ISO-format dates confusing is simply that they've grown
up with something else
(presumably in your case dd/mm/yy). If you sit down and think about the sequence of
data, running from the
largest unit to the smallest, consistently, you will see that it makes good sense.
These have been adopted as
local/national standards in various places, eg the EU, but we still don't see them too
much - guess we're still
smarting from KM vs miles and KG vs pounds-weight (I'm still paying off the bill for
that 1KM of sausages I
ordered...)
=the reason it makes good sense in a computer is because it will fulfil basic
functions in both use of a date:
(1) to document some date/time, and (2) to be used in basic computations. The best
example I can think of is a
logging function, eg OpSys tools and Apache. Take a look at the native output any of
these and you'll see ISO
dates left, right, and center. Other date formats will fulfill one or other of these
functions, but will not
compromise between both so well.
=if you want to sort an ISO date column, go ahead and do it. ISO dates can be
compared, just as they are:
2001-12-25 < 2001-12-26 = true
thus Christmas Day came before Boxing Day, last year (and most other years...)
=This also applies to ISO dates expressed as an integer
20011225 < 20011226 = true
=If you want to perform calculations on ISO-dates then check out the date functions
section in the MySQL manual
for DATE_ADD, DATE_DIFF, etc. They will achieve your comparisons, adjustments by
period of time (days), etc.
=In the same way, PHP has a rich set of date calculation functions, also well covered
in their manual. However
these are complementary and deal in the PHP prefered date formats.
=Sadly, there is no substitute for hitting the books (see advice on this below).

=see comments below about selecting the date format to suit the usage/purpose intended
(if you don't want to
spend all day converting back and forth - spending time, re-making time?).
=There is no ONE right answer - that's why we've been given choices. BEWARE of the
word "timestamp" in that a
UNIX timestamp is not the same thing as a MySQL timestamp!
> Any other suggestions on a sensible method of implementing dates & times
> accross many sites and many bits of code?
=here they come... one of your respondents talked about doing subtraction on ISO
dates. This will not work - the
discussion (below) started off with this question "why doesn't it work?":-
RE: [PHP] counting with dates (help!)
> $today = date("Ymd", mktime(0,0,0, date(m),date(d),date(Y)));
> $last_week = date("Ymd", mktime(0,0,0, date(m),date(d)-7,date(Y)));
> echo ($today - $last_week);
> The result is a number like 8876 (20020107-20011231 = 8876)
> But in date thinking it should be 7!
No, that's the difference in time represented by the number of seconds.
You still need to work with it a little more.
8876 / 60 = number of hours /* 60 = number of seconds in an hour */
8876 / 60 / 24 = number of days. /* 24 = number of hours in a day */
=I'm sorry but neither the above, nor the suggestion of Julian dates was correct (in
all cases). The two numbers
($today and $last_week) generated in the PHP code above are in CCYYMMDD format (as
used by MySQL to store dates,
BTW).
=So you are correct (Sander):
20020107 less
20011231 equals
00008876
=but this number is meaningless. If the formulae proposed above are applied, the
answer is not 7 days.
=Similarly (Julian dates = CCYYDDD format)
2002007 less
2001365 equals
0000642
=However let's jump forward in time, to tomorrow (hey what's 45 minutes between
friends?):
20020108 less
20020101 equals
00000007
=and:
2002008 less
2002001 equals
0000007
=woohoo! How come they 'work' tomorrow but not today? Because (using the first format)
whilst the last and
second to last digits represent days (hence it 'works' tomorrow), the preceding pair
of digits represent months,
and the procession of days into months is not a decimal progression. (smack your
forehead into the wall
now...but don't do it too often, because no matter how good it feels, it'll feel a
whole lot better when you
stop!)
=this is also the reason that using a Julian date format won't work - they look like
decimal numbers (look like
a duck), you can perform arithmetic on them (walk like a duck), but if your
calculation spans a year-break you
will discover that they are not really decimal numbers (and they bark like a dog).
=The three main date formats are:
1 CCYYMMDD (as mentioned above) because it is the way MySQL does things. You can't use
this for 'real
arithmetic' as we've just discussed, but you can do comparisons,
eg is 'today' > 'yesterday' (when I was young...)
2 dd-mmmmmm-ccyy (or variant) which is the way humans like to read their dates. This
is for appearances, and
once again not for arithmetic/logic.
PS never, never, never (did I say "never") use dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy because of the
ambiguities it causes -
particularly between Americans and the rest of the world (and date-guessing functions
- see your manual)
3 UNIX Epoch timestamp which is a count of the number of seconds since midnight 1 Jan
1970 (GMT). This is an
absolutely ugly way to look at dates (and times), but it is really easy to use for
arithmetic and after a while
you don't think it at all odd that without any effort you can recall that there are
86,400 seconds in one day.
=Now that piece of trivia, a pocket protector, and band-aid keeping your spectacle
frames together will make you
a babe-magnet in every bar (well those that serve Heineken anyway).
=Putting aside several HOURS to study the two manuals to get your head around date
functions is time well spent
(yes I know, it takes me a little longer...) - particularly the sheer number of SQL
date functions (the power of
which is all too frequently overlooked). Regarding the PHP functions, I made a page
list, and as I made notes
about each one, I annotated it with a 'purpose' so that I could keep them straight in
my mind. Well, enough of
me and the reasons why girls in bars don't talk to me...
=Regards,
=dn

Hi,
A little trick I did to get the text from a textbox in a form
( for user comments ) without the user having to submit it was to
use javascript to append the textbox contents to a url ( GET METHOD )
when the user clicked on a link, which pointed to a redirect script
which extracted the textbox contents then redirected the user to the
link requested. Hopefull this will give you some ideas.
[page.html]
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function modifyurl (theurl,textvar,thepagename) {
// do validation here on textvar, textvalue, etc. then proceed
with:
theurl.href="redirect_script.php?requestedpage=" + thepagename +
"&textvalue=" + escape(textvar);
}
// -->
</script>
<form name="thetextform" onSubmit="return false;">
<input type="text" name="textvariable" size=30 maxlength=45>
</form>
<a href="/another_page.html" onClick="modifyurl(this,
thetextform.textvariable.value, 'another_page')">
[redirect_script.php]
...and here on the redirect page I would do validation of the
variables/form_contents etc.,
insert it into a db, and then redirect:
<?
switch ($requestedpage) {
case "another_page":
Header("Location: http://www.site.com/path/to/another_page.html";);
//Redirect browser
break;
case ...
}
Cheers,
Bruce

If I have the name of a variable that is stored in an array, how do I use
the stored value to represent the actual variable?
Example:
$variable = "old value";
$vNames[1] = '$variable'; //literal $variable
I want to say $vNames[1] = "new value"; /and have $variable actually
change.
How?

--- Begin Message ---"A script to go to an anchor" - I don't know about that... If you need a _link_ to go to an anchor then you just need to echo the proper link (i.e. echo "blah.htm#anchor";). If you want a script to _redirect_ to an anchor then Emile is right: this is a client-side thing and you either have to go with JavaScript or with a META tag. Anyway, include() is definitely not the way to go.

You should probably take a look at each() for that... The functionality is not
the same but it's the only answer I can think of for your question (i.e.
mysql_fetch_row() _returns_ a key-value array while each() _walks_ a key-value
array).

I was wondering if there are any tools to convert PHP to another
scripting language? I have a script that only uses pretty basic
functions in PHP (arrays, plain variables, nothing exciting- no dB
things or anything like that) and am hoping there are some tools where
you can get the majority of the code switched over to a more universal
scripting langauge? I designed this 2000 script and then learned that
our information systems people would feel a lot more comfortable using a
language that they are already familier with. I originally designed it
in PHP because for one it is the only scripting language that my
university will allow your typical student to write in, and two because
I wanted to learn PHP. So in order for my place of employment to
actually use this script I made while learning PHP, they would like it
if it could be converted to another language. I am still waiting on
what languages they would be okay with, but thought I would start to
check into the problem here first.
Thanks for any information,

Have they looked at what your wrote? Have they given PHP ANY
thought and a little attention to PHP??
I've been a Perl programmer for the last 6 years. Just about a
month ago someone asked me to do something for him in PHP. I
gave it a shot. A couple of weeks after I took a test at a consulting
company and I scored higher on PHP than Perl :(
But beyond the above, I would never use Perl for cgi. I still prefer
mod_perl for large applications but I'd certainly argue to use PHP
for anything involving a few screen shots.
If your technical people are worth anything they ought to look at
PHP. Even though I did not program in PHP for those 6 years I did
encourage a talented html guy to learn PHP and he did a site for us
using PHP (he and the designer worked on it without my
intervention). I guess because he never knew about cgi
programming in Perl he did not argue for all of us to do more in
PHP.
BTW, if anyone has used the Perl HTML::Template module and
knows a PHP templating module that is as good or better, please
let me know. I might have missed it but I shudder at most of the PHP
template systems I see in comparison.
Thanks,
Peter

Heres how I figure it, there are always going to be lazy people asking advanced (or who they think may be advanced) users of PHP to write out their code. I know, I used to be one of these people when I was trying to figure out *giggle* mIRC script. I would go into #mirc or #mirchelp on IRC and should the slightest problem occur, I would automatically ask someone to figure it out for me. And there are other people who discover PHP by some friend or something and wishes that they could learn the language in 2 hours and become as "cool" as their friend. Also, there are people with absolutely no prior programming experience trying to get into PHP and reading the manual, which IMHO was written to complement past programmers looking for a new language, can be confusing. When I first started PHP, it was my first programming experience before mIRC script HEH. Sad but true. And when I first read the manual, I got confused! The terminology blew over my head and yes, I right away asked for help. And as I asked for help, and people told me the answers I looked back at the manual and the terminology started to make sense.

After getting very frustrated with arrays, I ended up using eval() in the
following way:
function top10() {
$i = 0;
$res = mysql_query("SELECT orders.pid, products.pid, orders.amount,
products.pname FROM orders, products WHERE orders.uid!='' AND
orders.pid=products.pid") or die(mysql_error());
while (list($opid, $ppid, $amount, $pname) = mysql_fetch_row($res)) {
$eval = '$temp["'.$pname.'"] = $temp["'.$pname.'"] + '.$amount.';';
eval($eval);
$i++;
}
arsort($temp);
return $temp;
}
It works fine for me, though I don't really need to select orders.pid and
products.pid since they aren't used. They are there when I was debugging but
*shrug*, I'm just too lazy to remove them right now!

If someone can help with this please examine the following problem...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
$lefta = array();
$leftid = array();
$top = count($connarray); //connarray is an array of lines from a file with
repeating sections that have values in the form value=setting
for ($i=0;$i<$top;$i++)
{
if (preg_match("/\bleft\b/", connarray[$i]))
{
array_push($lefta, "$connarray[$i]");
}
if (preg_match("/\bleftid\b/", connarray[$i]))
{
array_push($leftida, "$connarray[$i]");
}
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In later sequences I remove everything up to and including the "=" sign
which leaves the "setting" under a different array. However, $lefta is not
modified itself. After a number of cycles I found a problem. In some cases
there is a leftid= that has a name, yet in that section there is no left=.
When this form displays the data using a for loop and populating the
variables with the $lefta and $leftida I found that when there is no left=
nothing gets added to the array. How can I force an addition to the array
when the value is not found? Also, this is over-simplified. I'm only
showing two values out of the actual search having 15 possible and the
number of loops can be 5 sections (more or less) with less than or 15 lines
each.
I've been swimming around in this code for a while and I'm new to this stuff
so my apologies if I my description is hard to follow.

And there is probably no value, apart from saving characters in your source, to translate a pair of <BR> to <P>. In fact, it might have unexpected effects if you hapen to display the output inside of a closed <P> block. So, $mydata->KW = nl2br($mydata->KW); Depending on how this data is being used, you might prefer to do the translation before display rather than storing html in your database. For instance, if the data is to be edited, embedded html may be confusing, depending on the level of knowledge of the person editing. In respect of htmlspecialchars, recall that symbols like < and> have special functions in html - they signal the start and end of html tags. So if you actually want to use a < or > in your text, you should use the special symbol > (note the special use of the ampersand here!) htmlspecialchars will perform the translations for you. -- David Robley Temporary Kiwi--- End Message ---

Try this code. It assumes you are already connected to the database.
Usually, I put that script in something like database.inc and just do an
include.
<?php
mysql_connect ("mysql_server", "username", "password");
mysql_select_db("database_name");
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT image, type FROM table_name WHERE pid='$id'");
$file = mysql_fetch_row($sql);
header("Content-type: $file[1]");
echo $file[0];
?>
pid is the picture id. I'll assume you'll have an index or something in your
database setup.
Now, type is based on the extension of the file really. If filename.gif is
uploaded, it is assumed that the header type is image/gif.
How do you use this?
Save this little script as a seperate file. It is now the image file.
Observe:
<img src="foobar.php?id=24">
Now, assuming that the file you saved it as is foobar.php, the script will
fetch the binary data of whatever is at pid 24.

Just FYI. I posted the forwarded question earlier, but did some more testing.
I was doing some testing tonight when server traffic was low (ie: stop /
restart Apache) and I found out that when register_globals is On, the below
code doesn't work. Is this something to do with the EGPCS and how variables
are inherited? When register_globals is off, the code works great. Could
someone explain why that is? That'd be great :)
I would have thought that you can still access the HTTP_SESSION_VARS even if
globals is on?
Thanks.

hi,
Solutions for your question is given in the PHP manual, and here's
a part from the manual.
Hope this would solve you problem.
Example 1. File Upload Form
-------------------------------
<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="_URL_" METHOD=POST>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000">
Send this file: <INPUT NAME="userfile" TYPE="file">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Send File">
</FORM>
The _URL_ should point to a PHP file. The MAX_FILE_SIZE hidden field must
precede the file input field and its value is the maximum filesize
accepted. The value is in bytes. In this destination file, the following
variables will be defined upon a successful upload:
* $userfile - The temporary filename in which the uploaded file was
stored on the server machine.
* $userfile_name - The original name of the file on the sender's
system.
* $userfile_size - The size of the uploaded file in bytes.
* $userfile_type - The mime type of the file if the browser provided
this information. An example would be "image/gif".
Example 2. Uploading multiple forms
--------------------------------------
<form action="file-upload.html" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Send these files:<br>
<input name="userfile[]" type="file"><br>
<input name="userfile[]" type="file"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send files">
</form>
When the above form is submitted, the arrays $userfile,
$userfile_name, and $userfile_size will be formed in the global scope
(as well as in $HTTP_POST_VARS). Each of these will be a numerically
indexed array of the appropriate values for the submitted files.
For instance, assume that the filenames /home/test/review.html and
/home/test/xwp.out are submitted. In this case, $userfile_name[0]
would contain the value review.html, and $userfile_name[1] would
contain the value xwp.out. Similarly, $userfile_size[0] would contain
review.html's filesize, and so forth.
cheers,
kishor

I don't see any significant options here.
What is your session save handlers?

Yes. It's supposed to work, but could you try without register_globals?
If it works without register_globals, submit bug report.

Hi PHP Experts,
Is there any way to call a non-existent or undeclared function
and redirect the call to someother function by knowing its non-existense.
Is there any try() and catch() idea or any configurations,
or may be either error handler like thing.
for example if I call a function 'Draw_Table()' without declaring like
this
Draw_Table();
it should know the non-existense of Draw_Table() and redirect to
'default_func'
function default_func()
{
....
}
Note:
----
Perl programmers please recollect 'AUTOLOAD' Method of a package.
C++,Java programmers please recollect exception handling.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi!
Using the method to build a html-page from png s you can in a way make it
inconviniant for the user
to reuse the html-code.
The problem is that the textquality is not very good and my host doesn´t
have support for gif with fontfiles.
I wonder if there is any other way to put text on your page, something like:
$string = include ("textmaker.php3?text=testword");
I am trying to build blanks for use as a memberservice and want it difficult
to reuse my code.
Any tips?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Jan

echo $head;

<?php
$im = @ImageCreate (750, $imheight)
or die ("Cannot Initialize new GD image stream");
$background_color = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
$black = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, $c3);
ImageString ($im, $textsize, $left, 5, $text, $black);
ImagePng ($im);
