Re: [PHP] interfaces - your opinion
hi Marco,
I want to apply the idea to interface implementation not
class extension. that is to say I want to be able to make an
interface only implementable by certain (defined) classes (and their
subclasses) with out imposing any restriction on the classes
themselves (like that they must extend a certain base class in order
to have the 'implementable by' check performed.
IFAICT this is not really possible - but maybe somebody sees a way,
then again maybe it's too silly an idea to even consider it.
regardless thanks for your feedback.
rgds,
jochem

the DOM inspector is very handy for learning more about the structure

When the user clicks on the button, I want the text that is in input

debug it via alerts, it appears to be NULL. Looking at the examples
online, I feel like this should work. Does anybody know why this
might not be working correctly?

You need to ask in the JAVASCRIPT newsgroup. This is not a php question.
anyone every noticed that the question as to where a good javascript mailing
can be found comes up every week or so. and nobody ever has an answer.
so where the is this 'JAVASCRIPT newsgroup' ??
wait thats not a php question either - maybe we can ask John Nichel
to ajudicate the validity of the question in light of the 'somehow
related to IBM' criteria [which is in fact the true measure of a relevant

Is there something else that I need to checkout ?
is the apache module using the php.ini that you think it is ?? -
that kind of thing has caught me out more than once!
How do I check that ?
I downloaded apache sources and compiled it.
Why do I need to specify the path of the php.ini file to the apache web server ?
the php apache module needs to know where the php.ini can be found - usually

[PHP] Which is faster, a MySQL access, or a set of PHP variables?
PHP General, I have a site where I will set the interface up to be multilingual. This means that all the snippets of text which make up the menu and other elements of navigation common to most pages will be stored as variables. In most web site set ups that I have seen, especially on forums, the text is stored in a PHP script which is just a long list of variables. I wondered if there was any downside to storing the list of interface texts in a MySQL database, then calling them as an array when the page loads? This would have one minor advantage, which is that as I expand to new languages, I could build a simple web interface where people could input new languages into a form. However, is it a drag on a server to have to reach into the MySQL database to retrieve the array of texts each time the page loads? Note that the texts will be something like 20 to 30 small one to four word phrases like contact and previous page and that sort of thing. On the surface, it doesn't seem like this would be much different than accessing a PHP script with a list of variables. But then, I figured there might be a reason why I've never seen it done this way.

RE: [PHP] nifty little tools - resposity - evaluations..
Wasn't this just brought up on another thread? nifty little tools that is and a repository for such things. There are lots of code repositories but none that I go directly to right off. Usually I hit Yahoo/Google and do a search for what I'm looking for and find whatever looks best for my situation. That way, in theory, I find some of the newest/freshest ideas and techniques. Not always the best, but it's usually a starting place. tangent Since you asked.. I use Zend Studio (http://www.zend.com) and Crimson Editor (http://www.crimsoneditor.com)... if not just Notepad/vi/other-generic-text-editor-native-to-OS. My workmate uses Komodo (http://www.activestate.com/Products/Komodo/). /tangent I've found that people ask these kinds of questions over and over again.. and there are so many great websites out there with great code snippets or information in general. And never a lack of people who give opinions on what their favorite is... be it framework, php editor, or favorite brand of shiraz. So a little while ago I registered userrated.com (nothing there now but an image cropping test script done in PHP...with an awesome pic of a pirate llama... you heard me!). Anyway, my idea for this site is to create a review site for such things like PHP editors or even someone's favorite wine, restaurent, flea market, whatever. So when someone on the PHP list asks about flea markets...err... editors.. You can say Go to userrated.com and hit the PHP section. The idea would be to enter just about anything and have properties associated with the item that can be itemized or just rated. PHP Editors: Version [free entry] OS's supported [list] Ease of Use [1-5] IDE? [Y/N/Partial?] Debugger? [Y/N/Partial?] Stability [1-5] Overall impression [1-5] Wine: Type [free entry or checkbox?] Origin [free entry] Dry-Sweet [1-5] Year Vineyard Color Whatever-else-wine-snobs-judge-by :) And the other thing I'd like to do with it is be able to show all ratings/reviews/comments or filter by date range because sometimes things become outdated or obsolete or were great a year ago and now aren't supported anymore. So if you showed all dates it may say Average rating 7.5 but if you showed the 100 ratings giving in the last 2 months, it may drop to 4.0. Just throwing this out there in case anyone has any thoughts or comments or hell.. maybe a site already exists that does all this. Two things inspired this idea... (1) the constant weekly What PHP editor do you use? What's the best? questions (hah) and (2) my lack of ability to remember all the odd restaurants, wines, beers, camping spots, dog groomers, whatever that my girlfriend and I check out. Was that Indian restaurant in Baltimore any good? Was it the one on Charles Street or down near Lexington Market that was the good one with the all-you-can-eat curry at lunch on weekends? (*shiver* scary hah) So when I get un-lazy and stop playing World of Warcraft long enough to do some PHP projects.. is this something anyone would find useful? I'd like to open it up so just about anyone can create a category and add properties to the item being rated. Probably have to approve items so it doesn't get crazy, but still might be cool.

Just a comment on Firefox, I've been doing a lot of Javascript lately
(I'm working on a sub windowing library and I must say firefox/mozilla
are render pigs. I attach more than 3 on move listeners to move with the

Internet Exploder can easily handle 50, and show a bit of lag when I
increase to 100 listener objects. Opera owns for speed though.
For debugging I use a custom data browser service that works in the 3
main browsers which has the nice advantage of seeing all the lovely
different field names that each browser uses *lol*.

Hello
I have to migrate a PHP-application to a new Linux-Box. Both the old
and
the new system are Linux and PHP 5.1.1. (the old one has a Pentium 4,
the new one two Xeon CPUs). I have a problem using the
Crypt_Xtea-Extension. I narrowed it down to the following right-shift
operation:
(-3281063054 11) produces different results:
Old System: 495070
New System: -1048576
I understand that both results are wrong, but everything worked with
the old behavior and I need that behavior back very urgent.
Maybe someone can explain me in which way the bits are shifted so that
the result is 495070? If I understand it, I implement my own shift
function.
Assuming the previous hypothesis that it's 32-bit versus 64-bit
machines at work...
If you can determine the number of bits on your system, you could use
a different number from 11 on the two systems to get the answer you
want.
if (is_32_bit_machine()){
$y = $x 11;
}
else{
$y = $x 43; //11 + 32 (guess)
}
One hack for detecting 32-bit machine might be this:
function is_32_bit_machine(){
return mt_getrandmax() == 0x;
}
I suppose if you're going to do this right, what you REALLY should do
is code it to determine the number of bits, no matter how large, and
then bit-shift the correct amount based on that.
So when the 128-bit machines come out in a few years, you aren't
re-coding this same damn problem AGAIN.

Re: [PHP] connecting to oracle 9i
First, use ?php phpinfo()? to determine several things: Where does PHP think your php.ini file should be? Move your php.ini file there, and then change it. Changes to other php.ini files in other places is pointless. There is a new-fangled Apache directive to tell PHP where to find php.ini, but it's easier to just move the darn thing. After you re-start Apache (again) does ?php phpinfo();? show that Oracle is available? It will either be listed in that page, or it ain't there. Until Oracle is listed as installed, oci_connect() will remain undefined. Check the 'extensions_directory' in php.ini to be sure it's right.

On Fri, December 30, 2005 8:32 am, Dave M G wrote: I wondered if there was any downside to storing the list of interface texts in a MySQL database, then calling them as an array when the page loads? If you are already connecting to the database, then you are comparing an extra query or two to loading a file from the hard drive and the database wins on performance. Unless you are already loading some file where it would be convenient to stick the text, and then the variables win. Actually, this all depends on your hardware and database/drive performance setup... There really is NOT a good answer to this question from a performance stand-point. But then it's not a good question, really, unless you REALLY expect your site to get a ton of traffic, because the performance of the machine will probably not be a big factor in your success, compared to maintainability of code, feature-set of the site, cool-ness and prettiness and marketing and... All of those will matter more to your success than raw performance. This would have one minor advantage, which is that as I expand to new languages, I could build a simple web interface where people could input new languages into a form. Something to consider: Can you get data in other character sets into and out of your database and web application? If you plan to support 2-byte (or more) character sets, this is not trivial at all -- or maybe it is, but you have to at least plan ahead for it from the get-go. However, is it a drag on a server to have to reach into the MySQL database to retrieve the array of texts each time the page loads? Note that the texts will be something like 20 to 30 small one to four word phrases like contact and previous page and that sort of thing. On the surface, it doesn't seem like this would be much different than accessing a PHP script with a list of variables. But then, I figured there might be a reason why I've never seen it done this way. Generally, on most projects, the people who are contributing the translations of internal things like contact and previous page are developers who are comfy with editing a text file, and putting them in as text files with, say CVS or subversion, gives the developers control over versioning etc. That's not to say you COULDN'T do something similar with the database, or run hourly dumps of (some) tables into CVS or something. I don't think it's going to matter much which way you do this, so long as you can plan ahead for all the character-encodings you will ever need, and make sure you can handle them all. Perhaps try it with a test phrase like Hello which you can probably find in every language fairly easily. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

So a little while ago I registered userrated.com (nothing there now but an image cropping test script done in PHP...with an awesome pic of a pirate llama... you heard me!). Anyway, my idea for this site is to create a review site for such things like PHP editors or even someone's favorite wine, restaurent, flea market, whatever. So when someone on the PHP list asks about flea markets...err... editors.. You can say Go to userrated.com and hit the PHP section. The idea would be to enter just about anything and have properties associated with the item that can be itemized or just rated. PHP Editors: Version [free entry] OS's supported [list] Ease of Use [1-5] IDE? [Y/N/Partial?] Debugger? [Y/N/Partial?] Stability [1-5] Overall impression [1-5] Wine: Type [free entry or checkbox?] Origin [free entry] Dry-Sweet [1-5] Year Vineyard Color Whatever-else-wine-snobs-judge-by :) And the other thing I'd like to do with it is be able to show all ratings/reviews/comments or filter by date range because sometimes things become outdated or obsolete or were great a year ago and now aren't supported anymore. So if you showed all dates it may say Average rating 7.5 but if you showed the 100 ratings giving in the last 2 months, it may drop to 4.0. Just throwing this out there in case anyone has any thoughts or comments or hell.. maybe a site already exists that does all this. Two things inspired this idea... (1) the constant weekly What PHP editor do you use?

(*shiver* scary hah) So when I get un-lazy and stop playing World of Warcraft long enough to do some PHP projects.. is this something anyone would find useful? I'd like to open it up so just about anyone can create a category and add properties to the item being rated. Probably have to approve items so it doesn't get crazy, but still might be cool.

I don't use Interfaces and all that stuff, but...
Seems to me that every explanation I've ever heard for using
Interfaces in the first place was to provide an abstract definition of
what a class was supposed to implement, and that any class that
implemented the required functionality should, in some theoretical
la-la land, be a suitable replacement for any other class.
Seems to me that if you restrict the implementation to a specific
branch of classes, you're kinda defeating the whole purpose of an
Interface, based on my rudimentary understanding of what an Interface
is supposed to be.
I'm sure it makes perfect sense in the context you need, but...
Makes me think maybe an Interface isn't what you ought to be using in
the first place...

Re: [PHP] XML-RPC problem with long running times
If you can't get at the PHP internal time-out...
First, file a bug report Feature Request and ask for it to be
exposed. You won't be the only one who needs it.
Second, for the short term, you may be stuck with rolling your own
XMLRPC interface, or using one of the others out there as raw PHP
that will perhaps give you more control of stream time limits.
You MIGHT be able to dig through PHP source and alter the time-out and
re-compile... But remembering to do that on an upgrade would be a
PITA.

If the script sleeps for up to 5 minutes, it works perfectly fine.
However, I my real application will run probably an hour or so. If
the
script takes more than 5 minutes to execute, the client receives an
empty response, even the header is missing. If I try to write the
$xmlResponse to a file, the client receives a null message.
I wrote a small script without XMLRPC that acted the same way when
called by a browser. This worked perfectly (I tested it up to 20
minutes
waiting time) even if I used set_time_limit(5) and sleep(500).
Does anybody have an idea how to solve this problem? Thanks in

You are echo-ing out these lines whether $_GET['id'] isset or not.
Which means that your PDF isn't starting with:
%PDF3.1
.

.
echo span class=\pdflinks\$name/span;
echo nbsp;nbsp;;
echo span class=\sizes\($size kb)/span;
Your PDF now looks like:
span class=pdflinksfoo/span
nbsp;nbsp;
span class=sizes(25 kb)/span
%PDF3.1
.
.
.
And that's a pretty corrupt PDF, eh?
For the future:
#1. Always use 'vi' or some kind of text editor to view your corrupt
files that PHP sends out. Invariably you'll smack yourself in the
forehead and be back in business in minutes.
ob_clean();
header(Content-length: $pdf_size);
header(Content-type: $pdf_type);
#2. You can also comment this out until you get it looking right,
rather than go through the process of downloading and opening and all
that. You'll just see a lot of weird stuff in your browser, but
that's okay.
header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$pdf_name);
CHANGE THIS TO:
header(Content-type: application/octet-stream);
if you want this to work in ALL browsers.
The Content-Disposition stuff is johnny-come-lately made-up junk that
will NOT be reliable.
To force the filename to be what you want, just take on /$pdf_name
to the URL.
I've ranted enough about this before, so you should be able to find
more detail on how to make this really slick with ForceType and
URL-munging.

Throw it in /tmp or a disk file somewhere and put the file path into the database. If you HAVE to put it in the database, then you'd better: 1. Determine the MAXIMUM size of the serialize($chunk) of data. 2. Double that. 3. Find a data type in your database that is BIGGER than that. 4. The only answer is probably a BLOB.

Re: [PHP] Strange Right-Shift Problem
Hello
Thanks for your answers. I now implemented everything new, with the
mcrypt-extension. However, I use the crypt_xtea still for a
compatibility mode. I had to implement the right-shift and other bit
operations. If someone is interested:
The problem occurred always when a number exceeded the 32bit and is
negative. The old behavior was to take 32bits and ignore the other bits
(therefore the sign could change in the rshift-operation). The following
simulates the old behavior:
function getbits($i) {
$bits = array();
while (abs($i) 1) {
$f1 = floor($i / 2.0);
$f2 = ceil($i / 2.0);
if ($f1!=$f2) {
array_push($bits, 1);
} else {
array_push($bits, 0);
}
$i = $f1;
}
return $bits;
}
function convertto32($i) {
$bits = getbits($i);
$i = 0;
if ($bits[ 0]) $i|=0x0001;
if ($bits[ 1]) $i|=0x0002;
if ($bits[31]) $i|=0x8000;
return $i;
}
function rshift($i, $n) {
if ($i -2147483648) {
$i = convertto32($i);
}
return $i $n;
}

Hello
I have to migrate a PHP-application to a new Linux-Box. Both the old

(-3281063054 11) produces different results:
Old System: 495070
New System: -1048576
I understand that both results are wrong, but everything worked with
the old behavior and I need that behavior back very urgent.
Maybe someone can explain me in which way the bits are shifted so that
the result is 495070? If I understand it, I implement my own shift
function.
Assuming the previous hypothesis that it's 32-bit versus 64-bit
machines at work...
If you can determine the number of bits on your system, you could use
a different number from 11 on the two systems to get the answer you
want.
if (is_32_bit_machine()){
$y = $x 11;
}
else{
$y = $x 43; //11 + 32 (guess)
}
One hack for detecting 32-bit machine might be this:
function is_32_bit_machine(){
return mt_getrandmax() == 0x;
}
I suppose if you're going to do this right, what you REALLY should do
is code it to determine the number of bits, no matter how large, and
then bit-shift the correct amount based on that.
So when the 128-bit machines come out in a few years, you aren't
re-coding this same damn problem AGAIN.

Thank you in advance for any advice or links regarding this question. HTTPS can be considerably slower than HTTP. Clearly divide your application pages into HTTPS and HTTP pages. Then you need to be SURE all your links and FORM ACTION= into and out of HTTPS do the right thing to minimize the time in HTTPS land. Real Users (tm) get nervous earlier than they should about the little lock icon in their browser not being locked. For a shopping cart, put the whole thing into HTTPS, if you can, even if you really don't need to from a security stand-point. That goes against the minimalization advice above, but... Contact page, no HTTPS. Shopping Cart, HTTPS. You'll figure out the rest. :-) Some (and in trying to sell things, some is too many no matter how small some may be)... Some will abandon the cart when they don't see the locked icon. Ugly garish logos of how secure your site is (ugh!) must also impress users, for reasons beyond my ken, because I sure see a lot of those. Make a fake certificate and test and re-test on your development box for all the HTTPS stuff. You do NOT want to leave that as last-minute, even if it seems to be working on the dev site, even though you have no actually HTTPS set up.

Every entertainment venue should do this.
The profiles are accessed by passing a variable to the

the database.
The resulting URL looks like this:
http://www.tokyocomedy.com/people.php?person=6
However, having ?person=6 in the URL is not only ugly, but it makes
it hard for people to remember URLs and for the performers to use them
when sending out information about themselves.
It would be much nicer to have the url look more like this:

Or something like that.

#1:
Re-name your script from people.php to just people
In your example, if you actually want the HOMEPAGE to be the
people.php script, you can skip this step, so long as your homepage
is a PHP script.
(IE, it's index.php not index.htm, or your server is configured to
pass .htm files through PHP)
#2:
Force the web server to treat people as a PHP script even though it
doesn't end in .php
Open up .htaccess on the server (or create one) and add this:
Files people
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
Files
Also skip this step if you want your HOMEPAGE to be your people page
-- or use it to force index.htm to be PHP script if it's not
already:
Files index.htm
ForceType application/x-httpd-php

I was going to type a lot of PHP stuff here...
I'll just show my source code and comment on it:
http://uncommonground.com/artist_profile.phps
The 'require' lines connect to the database and define some functions
you can ignore, so forget those.
$search_key = $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];
This is the crucial Magic Line that gives you the data:
/Dave+Martin
Only sometimes it's:
/artist_id/42
as you'll see if you click through some of the links to other artists
on the site.
See the list of performance dates at the bottom of the page here:
http://uncommonground.com/artist_profile/Ellen+Rosner
[More on this artist_id/42 later.]
I first strip off the / in front to get:
Dave+Martin
Or maybe it's:
artist_id/42
Use urldecode() to change Dave+Martin into Dave Martin
Next, I check to see if I have an artist_id or if I want to look up
the name:
if (stristr($search_key, 'artist_id')){
Then I either use the artist_id I was handed (as your script does
right now) or I look up the name.
If you do this on your HOMEPAGE, you'd want something like:
if (stristr($search_key, 'artist_id')){
//We KNOW who the artist is, look them up by ID
}
elseif (strlen($search_key)){
//There was an artist name in PATH_INFO
//Search the database for that name
}
else{
//There was NOTHING in PATH_INFO, so dump out the actual HOMEPAGE

only a lot more code in there :-)
Inside the strlen($search_key) branch...
If more than one name matches, dump out all the names for the user to
pick one. Example:
http://uncommonground.com/artist_profile/Ellen
Then they'll click on the link, and you'll have the exact artist_id
you want.
After that, it's all just a bunch of SQL and PHP to dump out what I
want about the artist.
Which in my case has gotten pretty extensive and built-up over the
past several years, so it's a BUNCH of SQL and PHP, but there it is.
Here are the table names and what they are to help explain what the
queries are doing:
entities: core artist info: name, url, email, bio, etc
samples: headshots and thumbnails
cache_list: MP3s of previous performances here at our venue
cdbaby: CDBaby albumcode for CDs of this artist at http://cdbaby.com
events: performance date calendar
If anything is at all unclear, feel free to ask!
The rest of this post is just wacky ideas of things I do, that you
might want to consider doing, with your system after you get it
working.
Or maybe they'll inspire you to other better ideas -- Or at least more
appropriate for a Comedy Club. (We're acoustic music with very very
very rare comedy acts.)
You should probably stop reading and start coding the basic simplest
page you can now, and then stop and re-read from here forward to start
dreaming up your own stuff to do...
We allow artists to log in and input their own Bios and upload Photos
(as many as they want) and Thumbnails and...
So I don't put in any of this stuff for the Artist Profile. With
2000+ artists, and an average of 3 acts per night, every night,
there's NO WAY I'd have time to maintain all this data.
