What would be the point of this? How could you call the function to get
the info without already having the info in the first place? If calling
with a variable ("$foo();"), then you have the variable. If the call is
hardcoded ("new_func();") then of course you know the name there too.
Perhaps if you explained what you're trying to accomplish...

__FUNCTION__ will exist (exists) in PHP 4.3.0. This feature
request can be seen here:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=8576
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=11393
http://cvs.php.net/co.php/php4/NEWS
__CLASS__ will also come into being, to go along with their
older siblings __LINE__ and __FILE__.
These are special PHP core reserved/predefined constants.
Regards,
Philip Olson
p.s. Controversy surrounds these magic constants,
are they *really* constants? Inquiring minds
want to know. :)

What I am trying to do is create an error message within in a string that
whenever each function fails it echos this particular string out with it's
pertinent information.
i.e.
<?
$error_string = "Warning: unable to complete query in ".__FUNCTION__."name
in ".__FILE__;
function some_funct($var) {
global $error_string;
//doing something
//error detected
echo $error_string;
}
?>
Does this sounds feasible or is there another way to generate a dynamic
error message without giving the user to much information about the error if
it occurs?

just a thought, mac line break is "\r"
you can open and save it as unix that should get rid of the weird
problem, unless you need it to work for numerous uncotrolled file flow,
then replacing "\r" might work with a FOR loop. You might have to fwrite
to a new file there "\r" will become "\n" and have that be processed as a
continuum of the same script.

Here's a bug report:
file() - incorrect behavior (line endings ignored) on
files with Mac EOLN (CR)
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16521
Maybe some kind soul will fix this before PHP 4.3.0 :)

I agree -- if this is a once-off problem, then just open the file in a
Windows or Unix machine, re-save it, and the problem should be solved.
If the Mac user has BBEdit or BBEdit lite, one of the options they have is
to save in Unix and Windows format, which fixes the problem simply.
Of course if this is an ongoing thing, or if you don't have control over the
mac user, or the opportunity to convert the files as above, then there seem
to be some other ideas floating around this thread :)

id = '$shopid'"));
$get_items = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM wt_instock WHERE shop = '$shopid'
AND howmany > '0'");
while ($items_result = mysql_fetch_array($get_items))
{
$item_info = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM wt_items WHERE id
= '$items_result[item]'"));
$column++;
$display_block ="<a

src=images/items/$item_info[image] height=75 width=75><BR><B>
$item_info[name]</B></a><BR> $items_result[howmany] in stock<BR>Cost:
$items_result[price]<BR>
";
echo "<table cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=\"100%\" border=0><tr><td
width = \"100\">$display_block</td>";

Because you're opening a new table for every element.

It is an unfinished product, I pointed out to let you know its existence,
it's not ready for production at all. Respect the problems you had it really
suprise me, no one of the near 15000 downloads I have had since the
beginning of the product has told me anything similar, so I would like very
much you reproduce the problem and send it to me via e-mail or submit it at
http://bugs.qadram.com to be able to fix it, I would be eternally grateful.
Best Regards.

Hey there,
why do these work:

$ar[0] = "arrays";
$hash['vars'] = "hashes";
str = "I can use $vars in strings";
str = "I can use $ar[0] in string";
while this one doesn't:
str = "I can NOT use $hash['vars'] in strings";

I don't know the answer to why, but you can do this:
$str = "I can use ".$hash['vars']." in strings";

Hi,
I think this will accomplish what your trying to achieve.
$str = "I can use $hash[vars] in strings";
However, this will not work for multi dimensional arrays... eg:
$hash['var']['var2'] = "Elephant";
$str = "I can NOT use $hash[var][var2] in strings";
will output "I can NOT use Array[var2] in strings". For this you have to
jump out of the string and use contcatination... eg:
$str = "I can use ".$hash[var][var2]." in strings";
will output "I can use Elephant in strings".
Hope that helps :)

Because the string parser doesn't believe ' is a valid character as part of the
"variable name" following a $. Fortunately, this is catered for by using braces to
delimit your $-specification, thusly:
$str = "I CAN use {$hash['vars']} in strings";
The {} notation can be used to delimit any $ specification, even simple ones in cases
where you might otherwise have ambiguity. For example, this will work (even if
ungrammatically!):
echo "Today is the {$date}th of $month."
where this won't:
echo "Today is the $dateth of $month."
I strongly recommend using {} if in any doubt -- it can't do any harm, and may just
save you tearing your hair out looking for that elusive bug!!
Cheers!

Not really sure but str has to be $str, and I usually do print lines like
this
$str = "I can NOT use ".$hash['vars']." in strings";
the . will concat the strings together.
Hope this helps,

Hi,
I would suggest not to use $hash[var1][var2] instead of
$hash['var1']['var2'] because afaik php will think u mean two constants (
var1 and var2 ).
Just if it doesnt find these constants it will use them as
$hash['var1']['var2'].

Thats correct, php will think they are constants and upon not finding them
will send up a low priority error (I think its of E_NOTICE). Appologies for
sloppy coding (must remember to be more awake).
$hash['var1']['var2'] is much better, safer, more compatable and faster
(marginally - as it doesnt have to check for constants of that name). As an
extra note, (and this of personal desire rather than coding standards), I
would always break out of a string to insert variables. Personally it just
highlights the dynamic parts of string creation.
eg: = "Name: ".$user->name." is age ".$user->age.". ".(($user-
>birthday==$today)?"Happy Birthday!")."<br />";
but thats getting out of the scope of the question heh

Hi,
[a little background, feel free to skim]
The company I have been working for have been considering moving over to a
CVS based version control system for a while and I have been elected to
investiate the fesability.
We have a network of PHP files linked together via include / require /
require_once etc inside the source tree in a multitude of directories. A
sample tree structure might be something like:
+ Project Base files
|
+-- Core Handlers (mysql, sessions, authentication, security etc)
+-- Data Handlers (abstraction layer between project and various db models)
+-- General Functionality (smtp / nntp / imap abstract classes as well as
custom functions for things like data conversion)
+-- Output Handlers (conversion modules for things like outputting stuff
in XML / HTML / XHTML / UML / CSV / even some things as word documents etc)
[ stop skimming here ]
Because these files are stored in the CVS repository, if I was to check out
(for example) an XML output handler and make some modifications to the
encoding types ... how would I test my changes before commital? (I
obviously wouldnt want to break the repository files)
As these files need to be executed via a web browser, I can only think I
would have to check out *all* the files, and then point my webserver at my
local directory. Then I only check back in the ones I change, releasing the
others.
This is not too bad if Im on my own but when multiple people are working on
the same tree together there will be locks all over the place as CVS wont
know which file I am working on. It will just know Ive checked out all the
files.
Ideas and Samples of how other people have broached this issue are most
welcome. Please include my email address in the reply and remove the [PHP]
tag from the subject.
Thanks

Yes, you need to use a local copy of the entire site for development.
If you're doing your editing on a machine not running a web server, PHP
and a database this causes some problems.
To get around this I generally run two versions of a site on the
server. I make and verify all the changes on a development version
then move the entire development site to the live server.
This can still be tricky, as you don't want the development site
working with the live data. So you need to run a test database as
well.

You need to do more reading on the way CVS works. Everyone can work on
whatever files they like. There won't be any locks at all. Except when
someone is actively checking in some modifications (typically a few
seconds).
The C in CVS means concurrent. Which means multiple users working on
the files at once.
...R.

Thanks for the input, for added information - we have a multitude of
servers, 1 software development one plus several live servers.
The aim is to have the live servers cvsup the latest "STABLE" branch from
the development / deployment server... the issue of concurrent working is
strickly in the development realm as there are usually 2 / 3 developers
working on the same area of the project at the same time (one might modify
the input algorythms, while another improves the security for example).
I'll see what I can do with your suggestion.. Ive read through the entire
documentation at cvshome.org (man that was a labourous task) and I still
dont think I grasp it fully... guess its time to jump in at the deep end.
Thanks

It depends on what you need.
If you want to round the number off to 3 decimal points use the round()
function. However if you don't want to round and instead just want to
truncate the number, the number_format() function would be what you need.

If speed is an issue, instead of using number_format for truncation use
substr. i.e: echo substr($var, 0, 5); to get 3 dp.

Just a general question of the best way to do it !
I've got a job search site with mysql at the back of it !
You choose on the first page - type of job, where and other bits,
go to the next page where query is done and then lists the jobs available!
Whats the best way of keeping this page temporarily in existence ??
I don't want the query to run every time when they have changed no
information and I don't want the Warning Page has expired please re-submit
details when the reload the page !
At the moment I'm thinking I can create a temporary static version of the
page ?
but would like to here some other opinions about it !
Thanks

You could generate temporary pages but unless they're on a ramdisk more than
likely they'll cause more disk i/o usage than just rerunning the query every
time the person accessed the page. As for elimininating the repost warning
if someone refreshes the page that's simple....change your search for to use
the GET method instead of POST....this then has all the variables
transmitted via the URL and has no warning messages associated with it if a
person refreshes the page or returns to that page using the forward/back
navigation buttons on their browser.
Sincerely,
Craig Vincent

There are quite a few ways of doing this.
1. Get MySQL to do the caching for you, using temporary tables.
2. Get something like the Zend Cache to handle it transparently
3. Use a global session (which everyone shares, or just specific groups of
people) which you can embed data in
4. Use a ramdisk / mfs partition to store "hard copies".. if they are only
updated once a day, then disk I/O is unlikely to be a problem.
5. Use shared memory to expand on number 3
The key questions you need to ask yourself are:
1. Whats the scope of the caching? eg: per use, per page, per website...
2. Whats the TTL (time to live) on the cache? eg: 5 mins, 5 visits, 5
hours, 5 days...
3. Whats being cached? eg: MySQL results, processed results, derrived
information...
The answer to those questions will help you determine which one of the 5
options (there are ones other than the ones listed btw) you require.

You could use output buffering to write a static page of the results.
You basically turn on output buffering at the beginning of the script,
process as normal, and at the end, grab everything in the buffer, write it
to disk, then use header() to direct the person to that page.
Make a cron script that deletes old files periodically.

Hello everybody,

What do you think is the best? Try to read a .pid file from the right

the daemon? Grep the output of "ps -e" ?
Thanks for your help !

What type of daemon?
eg: To see if my pop3 daemon is running I use sockstat... "sockstat | grep

eg: To see if my mail redirect daemon is running I
check /var/run/red_mail.pid
All depends on what you want to do as to how you do it. You could even do
it in a multitude of ways and use the resulting matrix to determine.

I would like to monitor 3 different daemon : postfix, amavisd (a virus
scanner acting as a content filter for postfix) and spamd (SpamAssassin, a
spam filtering daemon invoked by procmail acting as an SMTP server).
Can we be sure that a daemon is running if the .pid file exist?

No we cant. As the process itself creates the pid then there is no
gaurentee that the process is live (eg: it could have been kill -9ed, or
the box hard-booted)... however if there is no pid file (and the process
usually manages one) then you can be sure that the process is *not*
running. As such its usually a good first port of call.
If the pid file DOES exist, pull out the id and grep "ps aux" for it. If
you find it then you can check the status of the process and determine what
state its in. If the process doesnt exist in the ps aux - its dead.
If you dont get a pid file in normal execution (or you dont have access to
it) ... then your gonna have to do it the long winded way (greping out
unique attributes from a ps auxww / sockstat etc).
Good luck

You might be new to this group, so I'm going to try not to flame you.
1. this group is not for "gimmie the code" -- commonly it's for focused
questions and issues.
2. this topic has been discussed on this list 1000's of times... a quick
search of the archives may in fact reveal a large chunk of code you could
'borrow'. you should have checked there before asking.
3. if you searched the manual for "file upload", you would have found this
page, wish basically gives you all the code you need
http://www.php.net/manual/en/html/features.file-upload.html
4. i'm sure there are many sites with file upload scripts and classes
ready-to-roll.
5. you'll earn more if you don't just copy and paste everything.

Hi there!
I guess I got a very easy question for the pros here...
I've been searching the documentaion of mySQL, but didn't
find the answer (even though I'm sure it's out there
somewhere :))...
Is a primary key in mySQL automatically indexed? And is a
unique field indexed automatically ?(I don't think and
don't hope so, but one never knows)
Thanx,

Kind of off topic, but yes, they are both indexed. Use SHOW INDEX FROM
table_name to see the indexes.
---John Holmes...

Christoph,
Indexes are built on key fields, so yes. When a field is identified as a
key it is indexed.
To answer your second question, it is the index which maintains the
uniqueness of a field.
A book is a really good analogy. If you wanted to look up the references to
"string", you can do it very quickly in the index. Even if you don't come
close to the "s" section, you immediately know whether to look next to the
right or to the left. If you push the issue, and act extremely dumb (like a
computer), you'll find the page containing "string" within 7 hits; once
you're on that page it's a short read to find the term. That's what makes
searching on indexed fields so fast.
To find the term in the book requires you to start reading on page 1 and to
read text until you find the term. Which why searches which do not take
advantage of key fields are so slow.
Indexes are your friend, they don't slow down the addition of records that
much, and make retrieval of records extremely fast.

To clarify, an indexed field is *not* inheriently unique. You can have an
indexed field which is not unique, and a unique field which is not indexed
(hence the options being available).
A primary key is both indexed and unique (with the slight adaption of
compound keys)... but this is majorly off topic.

Hi,
Sorry to bud in on this, but I was thinking about writing my next php app
oop style to learn. Are you saying that It is going to be slower or
poorer performance?
Thanks alot

It will be slightly (in most cases, unnoticeably) slower.
On the other hand, if properly designed, it should be
easier to maintain and much more easily reuseable in
other projects.
I think that's a reasonable tradeoff.

Slower, yes. But still faster than most of other web scripting languages,
at least from some benchmarks I've seen.
But still, who wants to code with pointers and memory management and etc
when PHP do those kinds of difficult tasks, and the "normal" ones, while
taking less time to code? If you need critical speed, code a C module. But
that's not necessary, at least in some cases I have seen (the majority, I
must say ;-)
Coding your whole web script in C or C++ will take weeks, months, if you
start from scratch. Php is designed for this enviroment, and you will get
less headcaches by using it (specially maintance and portability)....
As usual, use the best suited hammer :-)

Hi,
is it possible to get the HTML-Pagetitle with PHP?
Thanks for help.
Ivo
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
Ummmm, not sure what you're trying to achieve.
PHP is parsed on the server before it is sent to the browser. So, since
you're the one writing the PHP file, you know what the page title is
already, don't you????
Unless you're talking about parsing an existing HTML page, and extracting
the title.
In either case, you need to be more specific about the circumstances and
what you want to achieve.

Sine PHP has so many string parsing functions, you can grab the text
betn.
<title>...</title>
e.g. HTML code:
<html>
....
..
</html>
Read the whole file by line into an array -
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file.php
search for line containing <title>....
for($lines as $onelineatatime) {
strpos($onelineatatime, "<title>")
remove <title> and </title>
substr()

G' morning!
Can someone tell me where to find the various options for the Header
function as it relates to M$ Excel? Yesterday, thanks to this list, we found
a way to open a worksheet in the browser and display data retrieved from a
database. The worksheet opens with no gridlines and displaying zero values,
I would like to see gridlines and no zero values. Are there options that can
be placed in the header function. I have looked at MSDN and did a Google
search that did not reveal much of anything.
Here is the header info being used...
header("Content-Type: application/x-excel");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=\"excel.xls\"");
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
Thanks!

How 'bout:
// split it in a more readable way
list($hour, $min) = split(" ", date("H i"));
// calculate nearest quarter-hour
$quarters = (int) (($min + 7) / 15);
// check for round-to-next-hour
if (4 == $quarters) {
$quarters = 0;
$hour++;
}
// turn quarter-hours back into minutes
$min = 15 * $quarters;
// format final result
$insert_time = sprintf("%2i:%02i", $hour, $min);

Hi,
This is driving me nuts - all help appreciated!
The problem is that I can never get the html stuff output *after* having
included "download.inc" because of the "exit;" call -- which I have to have
else the html gets output and downloaded as well (and I don't understand why
fpassthru doesn't stop at EOF on $fp).
Is there any way to do this without the user having to click on yet another
link/button somewhere?
Donna
User clicks on a link in pageA.html:
<a href="./cribs.html?action=downloadtxt"><u>Download TXT</u></a>
cribs.html:
<?php
if ( $action == 'downloadtxt' ) {
include( '../include/downloadtxt.inc' );
$action = 'howto';
}
if ( $action == 'howto' ) {
?>
<html>
... more html stuff here
</html>
<?php
}
?>
downloadtxt.inc:
<?php
create a txt file, and then:
header( "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64" );
... more header stuff
$fp = fopen( "$txtfile", "r" );
fpassthru( $fp );
exit;
?>

Replace "exit;" with "fclose( $fp );". Please note that headers must be
sent before any other output.
What you are trying to achieve can be done with refresh headers (either
html-meta or http).

Nope - tried this way back when - if you rtfm you will see that the file is
closed when fpassthru() is done reading it. If you use fclose what you get
is this:
PHP Warning: 27 is not a valid File-Handle resource in ...

yah i know this - it's the major source of my problem!

Hi there.
Could someone please let me know what is the best way to send multiple mails
to different users collected from a checkbox on the previous page.
There is a page that displays all the available recipients. A users then
selects which recipients he wants to receive the mail. Then the next page
should process this and send the mail off.
I am not sure how I should me sending the checkbox name and variables and
then how to actually insert the email addresses using the mail command. Is
there a better way than using a checkbox?
Thanks
Kevin

If you have a HTML form with a list of email addresses to send to you might
want the code to look something like:
<input type='checkbox' name='sendTo[]' value='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' /> User
1<br />
<input type='checkbox' name='sendTo[]' value='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' /> User
2<br />
<input type='checkbox' name='sendTo[]' value='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' /> User
3<br />
Now in the resulting PHP code (assuming that you're using >= PHP v4.1.x and
using METHOD="get" in the form) you should find $_GET['sendTo'] is an array
of email addresses they ticked. Just add them as mail headers (you can find
simple instructions on the http://www.php.net/mail page in the user
comments).
If METHOD="post" then use $_POST, and if an old version of PHP is being
used then use $HTTP_POST_VARS / $HTTP_GET_VARS.

Checkboxes are an easy way to do it.
The value of a checkbox will only be sent if it's checked. If it's not
checked, then that variable isn't even created.
So the easiest way to do it is to use the email address as the value, and
name the checkboxes all the same name with an [] to make it an array.
<input type=checkbox value='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' name='emails[]'>
<input type=checkbox value='[EMAIL PROTECTED]' name='emails[]'>
Then, on the page that processes this form, you'll have an $emails[] array
that'll contain all of your email addresses to send to. So you just do this:
$email_string = implode(";",$emails);
mail($email_string,$subject,$message);
If you can't pass the email addreses, directly, then you'll have to pass an
ID that relates to the email addresses. Name your checkboxes as ID[] or
something similar, and then you'll have an array of IDs to send the email
to.
