[PHP] How to Request?
I'll try to explain..
For example I have a link: index.php?fd=car
then the Request part looks like this:
if(isset($_REQUEST['fd'])){
$dir = ($_REQUEST['fd']);
}
But for example I have a link index.php?fd=carc=green..
How to Request more then one variable if I want to get something like this:
if(isset($_REQUEST['fd','c'])){ // incorrect form. How to write this
correctly?
$vehicle = ($_REQUEST['fd']);
$color = ($_REQUEST['c']);

[PHP] Re: Reusing MySQL Connections - Can it be done?
http://pear.php.net/package/db
Monty [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I am trying to use fewer resources and processes when making database
connections in my scripts, so, upon the first call to make a DB
connection,
I store the Link Resource ID in a constant variable that can be accessed
by
all other functions that need a DB connection, like this...
function connect_db() {
if (!defined('_CONNECT_DB')) {
$result = @mysql_pconnect(localhost, Username, Password);
@mysql_select_db(database_name);
define('_CONNECT_DB', $result);
}
return _CONNECT_DB;
I call this function this way...
$query = SELECT * FROM table;
$connid = connect_db();
$result = mysql_query($query, $connid);
What's odd is that this works for the first query, but after that the
Resource Link ID stored in _CONNECT_DB ceases to work, making MySQL issue
the error: mysql_query(): 4 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource...
Is there any reason why this isn't working? Normally I store the Resource
Link ID in a local variable that I can re-use with no problem, so, I can't
understand why storing the Resource Link ID in a constant var won't work?
Is
it not possible to re-use the same connection for multiple queries to
different tables in the DB? I know I can do this if the Resource Link ID
is
assigned to a local var, so, maybe it can't be stored in a constant var??
Only other solution I can think of is to use non-persistent connections
and
simply make a connection to the DB then immediately disconnect for each
function that needs DB access, but, I'm wondering if this will create more
overhead and overload the database with too many connections?
I've searched and read just about everything I could find about exactly
how
PHP and MySQL work together, but, if there's anything that explains in
detail exactly what is happening when you call mysql_connect or
mysql_query,
please point me in its direction.
Any input on this is most appreciated!

You answer your own question immediately after you ask it.
Wrong: $_REQUEST['fd','c']
Right: $_REQUEST['fd']

[PHP] Max Filesize for PHP copy
I posted this in the Netware PHP newsgroup, but have not gotten a response. Hopefully I will get something here. I was using a script to copy a file from one location to another. It was working great (but was only testing with small files under 1MB) and then when I tried uploading a file that was a little over 4MB the server abended with the message Cache memory allocator out of available memory. I looked in the PHP.ini file and changed the max filesize to 5MB and tried to copy the same file. It worked, but I received the same message, but it didn't abend.

Your function doesn't seem to make any sense to be honest - you're
passing in the $day value to strtotime (a function that ideally
requires English language date formats) and then asking it to
calculate a timestamp based off the offset of the month and year.
So ultimately you're feeding strtotime = 10, timestamp
which means it's going to try and calculate the difference between 10
and the given timestamp (which is going to be a lot!)
What exactly is this function *supposed* to do?

[PHP] For your reference, how to validate dynamic form fields.
Just spent far too long trying to figure out how to do this, so I thought I'd
pass it on to you great guys, in case you need it for the future.
I used PHP to create multiple form rows, each one numbered:
?
for ($i =1; $i = 20; $i++) {
echo(input type=text name=userId$i maxlength=5/br/);
}
?
This creates a number of rows, each with a unique form value name. The problem
I had was that I needed to validate those rows, to make sure they were
numeric... Here's what I did. Have fun!

$numRows = 20;
?

if (strString.length == 0) return false;
// test strString consists of valid characters listed above
for (i = 0; i strString.length blnResult == true; i++)
{
strChar = strString.charAt(i);
if (strValidChars.indexOf(strChar) == -1)
{
blnResult = false;
}
}
return blnResult;

Re: [PHP] Re: Reusing MySQL Connections - Can it be done?
This is weird, it works for me, I use Oracle though.
The real application uses ADODB but it should work with the PHP native
resources.
I do this:
1. Define a singleton function, for example: getDBConnection()
function getDBConnection() {
$db = GLOBALS['APP_DB_CONNECTION'];
if (!is_object($db)) {
// Here we make the connection
$db = WHAT_EVER_CONNECTION_FUNCTION_YOU_WANT();
// At this point $db is a valid connection object
GLOBALS['APP_DB_CONNECTION'] = $db;
}
return $db
}
2. From every function that connects to the database you just call the
singleton:
function getActiveCustomers() {
$db = getDBConnection();
$sql = SELECT .;
// Here you execute the sql like you normally would
return $rs; // This is the resultset
}
Note that in step 1 you can use the resource variable returned by native
PHP functions, in my case I use ADODB so I store the object which isn't
that different because inside that object resides the PHP resource. So
you can change the line 'if (!is_object($db))' for
'if(!is_resource($db))'.
If you look the singleton carefully you'll see that the connection
process is executed just the first time. For example, if a user
requests executes 10 queries to the database, the connection will be
actually made in the first call to the singleton. The successive calls
will return the connection stored in the global scope.
I can tell for sure that this approach works very well. If it doesn't
for you, there might be a more fundamental problem in your configuration
or in your code.
Regards,
-William

A define is pretty much for strings only, not objects or resources. Try
using $GLOBALS['_CONNECT_DB'] instead.
I tried this, but, same results. If I store the Resource ID from a
mysql_pconnect() in $GLOBALS['_CONNECT_DB'] and then call...
mysql_query($query, $GLOBALS['_CONNECT_DB']);
PHP gives me the following error:
4 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource
When I look into this var, here's what I see:
Resource id #4
This is the same that was stored in the constant var, so, it appears that
whether it's a Global or Constant isn't making a difference.

RE: [PHP] execute script via email?
Sure... You can write a small php script that uses PHP's imap or pop
functions to monitor any email address. (Check out
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.imap.php for details.) Once that's
written, just schedule it as a task using the windows scheduler or cron

I know that this message is more related to MySQL than PHP but I don't know of a good MySQL board. This board is VERY active and useful.

I have found that it is not uncommon when trying to connect to a database on an Apache server to get a return similar to Access denied for user: [EMAIL PROTECTED]. I just ran into this problem because I wanted to use SQLyog to manipulate a table that already exists on one of my servers. I went to the Connections document that Dreamweaver creates and copied all of the connection info (host, db, user, password) exactly into the connection dialogue of SQLyog. The error message above was returned when I tried to connect although I can connect Dreamweaver to the database without problem even though the IPAdress is not listed as part of the username.

used to attempt that with but still..no matter what i put in the form for a
date it returns monday january 15 2038..or in one instance of playing with

wanted ...
say first saturday 9 (september) 2004

[PHP] Validating form field text input to be a specific variable type
All,
I have a form on which the user is supposed to select a variable type
(boolean, integer, real, date/time, text) from a select box and enter the
default value for this selected variable type in a text box. I'm trying to
validate that the default value entered matches the variable type selected
i.e. user selects boolean so valid defaults could only be 0, 1, true, false
and anything else would generate an error, or the user selects integer and
enters 1.7 for the default would also throw a flag. I know that all of the
form values submitted from the web page are strings but is there a way to
test/convert the strings against the other variable types.
I'm sure that I'm not explaining this very well, but for example, if I use
the following code I will always get an error displayed even if the user
enters a valid value such as 3 in the default field because the form values
are always submitted as strings.
if ( ($GLOBALS['PageOptions']['Type'] == 'Integer') and (!
is_int($GLOBALS['PageOptions']['Default']) ) )
{
// display an error
}
If I use (int) on the form default value then that won't work either because
if the default field value entered was not an integer but text such as
'snafu' then the value is always converted to an integer regardless.
if ( ($GLOBALS['PageOptions']['Type'] == 'Integer') and (! is_int((int)
$GLOBALS['PageOptions']['Default']) ) )
{
// display an error
}
Thanks in advance,
Dave Merritt

[PHP] Re: PHP Access Violation using PEAR::Mail_smtp
I've asked about PHP Access Violation errors before (this very same
error, as a matter of fact), and every time I ask, I get no response.
It's been 24 hours, and no one on php-general, pear-general, or #php and
#pear in Freenode IRC has responded to this particular post.
Do I smell bad?
Please forgive me for refreshing my own post to the list, but this is an
important question, and it is time-sensitive. Any help or pointers
would be greatly appreciated, as I cannot get around this issue at all.
Thanks,
Ben

I'm getting the following error when using the Mail_smtp package from PEAR:
PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 0177A8B4
It does not occur everytime I use it, but even when send() returns true,
e-mail messages are not being sent. However, it all worked fine a week
ago when I was testing it, and I don't think anything has changed to my
installation of PHP.
I'm using PHP 5RC1 on a Windows Server 2003. The localhost has no
built-in mail functionality, so I cannot use mail(). I must use
Mail_smtp to log in to the mail server. I also have Net_SMTP and
Net_Socket installed, and, like I said, when I first dropped in my code,
all was working fine.
My code is, as follows:
code
require_once 'Mail/smtp.php';
$smtp_settings = array(
'host' = 'localhost',
'port' = '25',
'auth' = 'LOGIN',
'username' = 'username',
'password' = 'password'
);
$to = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$msg = Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3;
$headers = array(
'Subject' = My Subject,
'From' = [EMAIL PROTECTED],
'Date' = date('r'),
'Content-Type' = 'text/plain',
'X-Mailer' = PHP/ . phpversion()
);
$mail = new Mail_smtp($smtp_settings);
if ($mail-send($to, $headers, $msg)) {
echo h2Sent successfully/h2;
} else {
echo h2Not sent/h2;
}
/code
If I don't get the access violation error, I get the message Sent
successfully. Yet, I don't receive any messages.
In the code for Mail_smtp (in Mail/smtp.php), I have added the following
line just under the function declaration line for the send() method:
echo test;
When the access violation occurs, I get this line:
PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 0177A8B4test
From this, it appears to me that the access violation is not occurring
when the class tries to send mail, but sometime earlier than that.
However, I do not know much more about these Access Violoations, other
than PHP is trying to access memory that it doesn't have permission to
access. I couldn't find anything at bugs.php.net or through Google that
helped much with this problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am on a tight deadline, so any
help ASAP would be even more greatly appreciated. ;-)

Re: [PHP] function CreateDate i made doesnt work?
From: Andy B [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Replace the above two lines with
$time = date('YmdHis', mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$year);
ok the function works now because when i echo the output of
$_SESSION['add']['start_date'] it shows the right 14 digit timestamp for
the
date i wanted to create... now the problem is getting it to echo on a page
in a normal standard user readable format... i have the following line i
used to attempt that with but still..no matter what i put in the form for
a
date it returns monday january 15 2038..or in one instance of playing with
it even ended up with december 31 1969... even though i put in the date i
wanted ...
say first saturday 9 (september) 2004
here is the line i used: something must be wrong with it
Start Date: ?echo date(l F j Y, $_SESSION['add']['start_date']);?
date() expects a UNIX timestamp. MMDDHHMMSS is NOT a UNIX timestamp. So,
instead of converting the UNIX timestamp to MMDDHHMMSS in your function,
why not leave it a UNIX timestamp? Then you can send it through date()
whenever you want it formatted.

Re: [PHP] Connecting to Databases
From: Robb Kerr [EMAIL PROTECTED] I solved the problem by adding my IP address to the Access Hosts list for the database. Fortunately I use a cable modem with a static IP address, but if I were using a dialup with a dynamic IP, would I have to add that IP as an Access Host every time I dialed up? This seems wrong. Well, even though the IP is dynamic, it's still generally within a certain range. You could just assign the IP address using a wildcard: 192.128.4.%, for example. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

hi all has anyone used smarty before? what do you think of it? I think
it's pretty nice to seperate your script (code) from your design.
i would like to hear your comments and if you have any alternatives
There are a lot of templating systems for PHP, but I chose Smarty because
it seemed the most feature-laden, and likely to have continued support.
I wanted to standardize on something, so I went for the most ubiquitous.
Really, I couldn't be happier with it in every regard.
At first it may seem like more than you need, but continue working with it
and you'll find new design strategies that take you further than you ever
thought you'd go. It's one of those things you start using and never look
back. I use it on almost every project now, even small ones.
There are the naysayers who complain it's too bloated for basic work,
but I think the powerful benefits far outweigh any performance issues.
I've never felt like it was slow or too much for a given task.
Given that scripts are compiled the first time they're ran, you'll never*
notice the bloat and never lack performance; it's the same as real PHP
code and can be optimized with a caching engine like Zend.
* OK so you will notice it the first time and if you make any changes to
the file.
I just used it for the first time since I am trying to work with a real
estate agent who only had time to learn Front Page (yuk). We were in a
tight spot, because she'd make a change to the website and I'd have to
chase after her because Front Page screwed up the code (the RocketPHP
plugin was buggy, at best, and didn't allow her to flow).
For our next site, she'll mock up everything in Front Page how she wants
it to look then I'll add template tags and business logic. Whee!
Separation of code from design, at last!
It will be tempting to put all logic in the PHP but you might need some
logic in the template; for example, we have a level check: If the user is
at a low level he/she won't get fancy options on his profile. This
required outputting HTML.
I could have put a tag in the template like {bio} but that'd mean
maintaining HTML in the PHP code which I wanted to avoid (left the
prettyness to the Front Page developer). Instead, I put something like
this in the template:
{if $level 2}
{bio}
{/if}
It's extremely low-level. I can leave the code which fetches the $level
in the PHP code and just have the checks in the template.
Hopefully you get the idea; you are recommended to leave presentation
logic in the template but all other logic should be in the back end PHP
file.
Smarty is a great templating engine which is easy to install and use on
any sized project and I highly recommend it.

[PHP] [php 5] static class variable question
[PHP5 RC1, Windows XP Pro] Hi, I have a few classes called Audio, System, etc. In order to not pollute the namespace (if someone else has a System class, for example), I'd like to separate my classes. One way of doing this would be to preprend each class with some text, to make my classes something like myProject_Audio, myProject_System, myProject_Whatever. I would much rather be able to do something like myProject::Audio, myProject::System. I would like to do this by creating a class called myProject and having Audio and System be static variables, referring to the classes Audio and System. The Audio and System variables in class myProject would act as an alias to the Audio and System classes. I can access myProject::someVar fine when someVar is any variable, but I'm unable to call: $audio = new myProject::Audio; Is there any way to do this? Should I create a static function Audio() in class myProject and forward the variables to the Audio class? If I did that I could call $audio = new myProject::Audio(); or $audio = new myProject::Audio(var1, var2); but then it would be hard to access variables in class Audio (because you can't do myProject::Audio()::someVarInAudio because Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM) Thanks, Best Regards, Bill Zeller -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I did a little test and tried to see if catalogItems had any data. The
following code ONLY returned the Publisher ... nothing else.
print_r($catalogItems);
print p;
print_r($publisher);
print p;
print_r($keyword);
exit;
Suggestions are welcome :)

i've never used smarty* but i think i understand how it works. so my
question is this...
would it not be better to place that logic in your php code instead of
your template?
my thinking is this: if {bio} contains anything, it will print to the
page. if it doesn't contain anything, nothing will be printed. so
there's no need to check the value of $level within the template since
{bio} will simply contain something, or it will not.
i'm purely looking to understand this smarty thing a little better. :)

Sorry. -bill Bill Zeller [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [PHP5 RC1, Windows XP Pro] Hi, I have a few classes called Audio, System, etc. In order to not pollute the namespace (if someone else has a System class, for example), I'd like to separate my classes. One way of doing this would be to preprend each class with some text, to make my classes something like myProject_Audio, myProject_System, myProject_Whatever. I would much rather be able to do something like myProject::Audio, myProject::System. I would like to do this by creating a class called myProject and having Audio and System be static variables, referring to the classes Audio and System.

Rather than putting logic into your presentation layer, the whole bio
content should be a separate template. You then make the decision to either
load the template into $bio or not from within PHP. So {$bio} will either be
an empty string or the content of the other template, depending upon your
PHP logic. And you still maintain the separation of presentation and
code...

Re: [PHP] combining variables...

Sadly, it didnb't work...
here's my code... I wanna repeat and output final variables 6 times...

You might also want to look at how you can pass variables as arrays

input name=view_request[email][]
input name=view_request[company][]
foreach($view_request as $key = $list) {

Re: [PHP] Validating form field text input to be a specific variable type
From: Merritt, Dave [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a form on which the user is supposed to select a variable type (boolean, integer, real, date/time, text) from a select box and enter the default value for this selected variable type in a text box. I'm trying to validate that the default value entered matches the variable type selected i.e. user selects boolean so valid defaults could only be 0, 1, true, false and anything else would generate an error, or the user selects integer and enters 1.7 for the default would also throw a flag. I know that all of the form values submitted from the web page are strings but is there a way to test/convert the strings against the other variable types. I'm sure that I'm not explaining this very well, but for example, if I use the following code I will always get an error displayed even if the user enters a valid value such as 3 in the default field because the form values are always submitted as strings. Well, if (int)$string == $string, then the value is an integer. Same for (float)$string == $string for a real number. Boolean would be easy, just strtolower($string) as compare to 1, 0, 'true', or 'false'. Date/time validation will probaby require a regular expression or breaking it up to validate days/month, etc. That can get a little hairy. If they say text, well, anything goes, right? Maybe just make sure it's not empty()? Let me know if you need more details. There are probably a ton of different ways to do this. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Given that scripts are compiled the first time they're ran, you'll

Certainly. However, the Smarty compiler is about 2200 lines of code, and
the Smarty class itself (which does load every time) is about 2000. Both
figures rounded up, and both files contain heaps of comments.
Still, many people consider this bloat, if they're merely wanting to
search and replace a couple of values on an HTML template.
Those people are not really leveraging a template system, but if that's
all you wanted to do--ever--I can see why the additional overhead would be
undesirable. After all, a simple search and replace for a few values
doesn't require 4000 lines of code parsed (or 2000, after compilation).
OK so you will notice it the first time and if you make any changes
Yes, and whenever your cached/compiled template has expired.
For our next site, she'll mock up everything in Front Page how she wants
it to look then I'll add template tags and business logic. Whee!
Separation of code from design, at last!
Working with others is one of the main benefits of a templating system. It
doesn't matter then if it's FrontPage code or not, at least you, as the
developer, don't have to muck with it. And it's easier to clean up later.
It will be tempting to put all logic in the PHP but you might need some
logic in the template; for example, we have a level check...
I'd go a step further and suggest using as much logic in the template as
possible. In a basic sense, it's display logic, not application logic.
Instead, I put something like this in the template:
{if $level 2}{bio}{/if}
Again, take it a step further and you may just load up a $User object (of
your design) within your PHP code. Then in the template, you could use:
{if $User-hasPermission('write')} ... {/if}
When you start thinking like this, your PHP logic gets very slim and easy
to read and maintain. This is the goal and benefit of templating.
A common reaction when starting to work with Smarty is you mean I need to
assign each variable into the template one-by-one?! On a certain level
this is true. But as illustrated above, you can also pass arrays, objects
and other complex data structures into your template.
It becomes especially powerful when working on a larger web app. You
needn't assign your values into the template from each PHP page. You can
make a boilerplate include and assign common variables as references:
// boiler.php
$pt = new Smarty;
$pt-assign_by_ref('User',$User);
// mypage.php
require boiler.php;
$User-doStuff();
$User-admin = true;
$pt-display('template.tpl');
So you can attach references right off the bat in an include, then every
time you use that include, you've already got things assigned and can
change them all you want before displaying, without additional assignment.
Going even one step further (the beauty of Smarty: always another level),
just extend the Smarty object itself. Then, instead of making all your
templates includes other templates (such as a header or a footer), you can
make your overall page be a template, and the extended Smarty object can
be given extra functionality to control the page:
{* MyPage.tpl -- Smarty template for the entire page *}
...header...
{include file=$content}
...footer...
// mypage.php -- extended Smarty object
class MyPage extends Smarty {
var $tmpl = 'MyPage.tpl';
function render($x) {
$this-assign('content',$x);
$this-display($this-tmpl); } }
// actualphpcode.php -- called by the browser
$pt = new MyPage;
$pt-render('pagecontent.tpl');
Now, is Smarty awesome, or what? :)

Sounds like you need a where clause in your sql query:
$r1=SELECT * FROM $main_tbl where status='A';
replace 'status' with whatever you called the status field in your table.
