RE: [PHP] About MySQL Tables
-Original Message- From: Kelvin Park [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I have two tables that share product codes to relate data. One table is called IMAGE, and another one is called the PRODUCT. There are more than one image for every product, for example product code 1122 will have 3 images and 4938 will have 5 images within the IMAGE table. Since all my product information is stored in PRODUCT table except for the image file names (e.g. 1122_1.jpg, 1122_2.jpg or 4938_1.gif), I have to build the following query: SELECT * FROM PRODUCT, IMAGE WHERE PRODUCT.productcode = IMAGE.productcode. However, this causes a little problem. When I print out all the product information with its images, more than one copy of a product is printed out (because of multiple images for each product). I'm still looking for a way to build a query string so that I could have only one image displayed per product (so that a user can click on the product to view more images). You could use a Group By to limit each PRODUCT SELECT * from PRODUCT, IMAGE where PRODUCT.productcode = IMAGE.produtcode group by PRODUCT.productcode You could do it via 2 selects (ie, the first query simply lists all items in PRODUCT, then within this loop, a second query lists all entries in IMAGES which have the productcode, with a limit 1 in the query. Personally, I'd go with the Group By option, and be clever with your ORDER so the correct image gets selected.

RE: [PHP] Re: Which PHP-Editor to use?
I know I've been away from this list for years and have missed the several reincarnations of this thread over time, but has anyone ever used a kickass little program called Notepad2? I discovered this about 2 years ago and it's the most brilliant little application I've ever found. Sure, it doesn't have the niceties like multi-file search replace (which can be handy when you get a job to fix someone elses website and they don't use a PHP shell for the HTML code instead have all the HTML code in every file). Notepad2 is just this little app which has things like language specific colour coding, line numbering, tab indentation support, and its just SO small, memory-unintensive, and a pleasure to use. I have tried so many different types over the years always get sick of the bloat and the shit that's put into programs like dreamweaver, smartedit etc that I cant stand using it. I love being able to fire off a quick little notepad2 editor from my FTP program, make the changes, save it, close it and upload it.

And, I doubt that the organizations you site actually agree with you. I have personally spoken to both Larry Lessig (Creative Commons) and Richard Stallman (FSF) on the subject, and feel confident in saying that both agree with the distinction. Lessig doesn't feel it's an issue worth pursuing when there are bigger fish to fry. I respectfully disagree. Not that we shouldn't have copyright, but that the current form of copyright is broken. A work restricted for an entire generation after the original author is dead? What about descendants of the author? When anyone dies, their descendants have a rightful claim on their parent's assets -- it been that way since the dawn of mankind. Do you think you know better than the practice of thousands of generations? Actually no, property law didn't really come in until civilization, some 5000 years ago, which is rather small on the scale of dawn of mankind. And copyright didn't exist until perhaps 5 centuries ago in England, and covered just publication, and was for less than 20 years. Copyright being long enough term for inheritance to matter is less than a century. Over the scale of human history, unrestricted information flow has been the rule, not the exception. But what you're suggesting is that legalized extortion should be inheritable. Copyright is, fundamentally, legalized extortion as a means of promoting the progress of Science and the Useful Arts. Do you keep paying the guy who built your TV every time you watch something on it? Do you keep paying the company that built your house every time you move? Do you pay your teachers from college every time you use something you learned there? Do you pay your dentist every time you eat? And for that, I am accused of having no morality and values. I don't think anyone has accused you of that, but saying what you have, leaves us with the obvious conclusion that you don't recognize copyright infringement as stealing -- and that does cast a long shadow as to morality and values. I will simply leave the above snippet in place, as I think it speaks for itself. tedd PS: I said I wouldn't get back into this argument, but your claims are just absurd.

Solution 1: Send a header() that avoids caching (can't remember it exactly) Solution 2: Call the image like this: img src=image.jpg?arandomstringhereeachtime Or if you were creating it with a php script: img src=image.php?img=image.jpgarandomstringhereeachtime My preferred way of doing it, and making sure its reloaded each time is to do it this way... the U variable pretty much guarantees a random string each time its loaded. image.jpg?.date(U).

RE: [PHP] Re: Malformed Email Date Header
Most likely it's the server's time/date problem. Did you check to make sure that the time/date is in the correct timezone, etc? I know this isn't really the right way to do it, but you could always just move the server's clock back 10 hours if it's really always 10 hours ahead of time. You alternatively could also always use a different way of sending your mail for that server. If you used PHPMailer http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/ this allows you to connect to SMTP on a different machine to send email from an account. This one is really tougher than I origionally thought. The time on the machine is correct, and out of all of the date stamps in the headers of the email are formed correctly based on the machines time/date, (ie, everywhere else in the headers it adds the +1000 correctly) except in the 1 main line Date: Day 00th Jan 2999 01:02:03 ?1000 Email programs (Wintendo based, and *nix based alike) generally have a hard time with this Date header. Outlook and Outlook express just try and interpret and guess what its supposed to mean (seemingly adding an extra 10 hours to the correct timestamp) and the *nix mail filter I came across reported it as being a bad header.

That's HTTP/1.1 only, but this is what I got from PHP site:
?php
header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1
header(Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT); // Date in the past
?
But wouldn't that make every image on the page be uncached and reloaded each
time? Not very efficient if the shell of the site keeps getting loaded if
only 1 or 2 images need to be forced.

RE: [PHP] Malformed Email Date Header
Looks to me like the \270 is some kinda Unicode character instead of, like, you know ASCII '+'... Dunno how you managed to convince your mail system that you wanted it to convert + to Unicode \270, mind you, but there it is. Hi Richard, Odd thing is all of the other headers of the email (see below for a snippet of the headers) show the date stamp with the correct + and the actual Date: header shows a ? instead of a + I assumed that the 270 is a corrupted character that was substituted with a ? because it didn't know what else to put there. This error is spread throughout my google searches as some people have had it happen from versions as old as mid 3 version of PHP through to later versions of 4. My only guess is that it seems to be some sort of inbuilt glitch within PHP that reacts with some common denominator (version of IIS, version of operating syetem etc) but noones been able to discover a reason. -- Received: from storm by lightstorm.com.au (MDaemon PRO v9.5.6) with ESMTP id md50002484423.msg for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Wed, 04 Jul 2007 10:11:41 +1000 Date: Wed, 04 Jul 2007 10:11:39 ?1000 -- Note the above how it puts the correct +1000 on the internal header, but the one that becomes more of an external (or visible) header, has the ?1000 Regards Chris Aitken The Web Hub Designer and Programmer Phone : 02 4648 0808 Mobile : 0411 132 075 - Making The Web Work The Web Hub http://www.thewebhub.com.au/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Confidentiality Statement: This message is intended only for the use of the Addressee and may contain information that is PRIVILEDGED and CONFIDENTIAL.

[PHP] Malformed Email Date Header
Hi All, Just a query I have which by the looks of my research into it online, still exists on various installations around the world. The websites I build for my clients are scattered over several hosting servers, and I've noticed that one of them has an issue with the usage of the mail() function. The sever is running PHP Version 4.4.2 under Windows NT Server 5.2 build 3790. Whenever I use mail() to send an email out via a website, it goes out not a problem, but in the email program, the date received is around 10 hours ahead. This causes my clients much grief, especially those who have shopping carts and large numbers of emails and have the incoming emails listed all out of order because of the future date stamp. After digging into this somewhat, I had a friend of mine on a freebsd box got me to email him from one of the scripts, and his *nix mail filtering software hiccuped on the incoming message complaining that X-Amavis-Alert: BAD HEADER Non-encoded 8-bit data (char B8 hex): Date: Wed, 04 Jul 2007 10:11:39 \2701000\n Now, he sent me the headers of the email that he received, and the Date: line in the headers was showing up as the following Date: Wed, 04 Jul 2007 10:11:39 ?1000 With a ? before the 1000, which, but looking at all the other entries for the date in the headers, they all appear with the correct +1000 in place. Has anyone come across this or know of a reason why this is happening on this particular server. I have other hosting accounts on other windows and linux PHP boxes which do not have this issue. Just one this one server.

[PHP] Mozilla/Opera issue
Hi All, I am clutching at straws here, but I have come across an issue that I don't know whether it's a PHP problem in my coding, or HTML, or something entirely different but I've never seen this happen before, and this list has always helped me out in the past with odd problems. I am developing a site at the moment which is causing a very unusual trait in both mozilla and opera browsers. http://www.reedsandmore.com.au/index2.php For example.. * Click on Clarinet Reeds More * Click on Bb Clarinet Reeds * You will see the first page showing the first 12 items (hopefully it will) * Scroll to the bottom and click on Next * Look at the page that gets refreshed... it's the first page again. Yet in the URL it shows the URL for page=2 * Now to actually bring up page 2, you can click on RELOAD, or simply click on Next at the bottom of the screen again. This will bring up the proper page 2. * Now do the same to bring up page 3. Same thing occurs. Page 2 is re-displayed, and page 3 will not come up until you click on Next again, or click on RELOAD. * The same thing happens in reverse back down through the pages. If anyone can point me in the right direction of this or if you have come across this in the past, please any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

[PHP] script waiting for an output
Hey all, Ive got a bit of a curly one I haven't been able to work out yet... Here is the scenareo I have a GSM Modem sitting on the serial port of a FreeBSD 4.0 box. It has some software running which basically conrols the GSM modem. When I use it command line, I issue it the command and it does its stuff and outputs me some data so I know its outcome (whether it was successful or not depends on what is output). This is fine because I can make the script wait for the output from the spawned command when I do it via PHP. The question is, whenever an SMS message comes into the GSM modem, it outputs some more text. Now.. if in sitting in console on the box, it comes up on my screen. What I want to be able to do is, whenever a message comes into the GSM modem, somehow detect it, fire off a PHP script I will write, and do whatever it needs to do with it. I just dont know how to go about waiting for some form of output in FreeBSD, when it happens fire off a script.

Hi all, Just a quick one, I am pulling a whole Class C list of IP addresses, and im trying to sort them in order, but im getting it displayed 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.10 127.0.0.100 127.0.0.101 127.0.0.102 etc. Is there any other way to sort this thinking they are numbers, rather than text ?

[PHP] Strings with Spaces in URLS
I have come up with a bit of a problem I have a little funky search form on a page, and when I send the search data on as a URL, anything with a space is screwed up example $search = This is a test; echo a href=http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=$search; and when the link is clicked (or even when the mouse is put over the link), the URL in the browser is - http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=This leaving out all words after the first space. If I simply throw the while thing using the following header statement header(Location: http://www.blah.com/foo.php?search=$search;); then it brings it up properly in the browser. Any suggestions ?

[PHP] .htaccess logout sequence
Hi All. I have a query which has confused me a bit. I have a database setup where I use htaccess (using apache/php/mysql on a freebsd 3.4 box) to grant access, then it grabs the users info from the database, sets a cookie and pretty much lets the system know whos doing what on the db. What I do want to do however is have the facility to have a logout option where it ditches all info about the current logged in user, fires them back to the start of the system and re-requests the htaccess login window. My past attempts have failed miserably so I thought I would ask around and see if anyone else has had any success (without changing to a different method of auth :) Cheers Chris Chris Aitken - Webmaster/Database Designer - IDEAL Internet email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: +61 2 4628 fax: +61 2 4628 8890 If the foo shits, call your sysadmin

Hi all,
I have three tables in my (mysql) database:

with just one query returning just one row, ie. with all the actor names in
one field... is this possible? or do i have to get the video data first and
then the actors separately?
$count=0;
$query = select actors.*, videos.* from actors, videos where videos.ID =
'$ID' and videos.ID=actors.actorID order by actors.name;
$result=mysql_query($query);

echo Actor: $display[name] - DOB: $display[dateofbirth] etc etcBR;
$count++;

This is how I do it anyway. Make an incrementing value, and the if
($count0) line basically says to display the title once, and skip it for
every other entry. Chances are the query would need tweaking but the
principle is there to get data from all needed tables in 1 query, then set
the loop to display the needed data from the 1 query.
There is probebly a more efficient way of doing it, but thats how I do it
anyway.

[PHP] Incrementing a String Name
Hi
Just a quick puzzle I cant seem to get around at the moment...
Im trying to create a loop that increments the string name by a digit. For
example, if I had the following 4 strings submitted to a script.
$name1
$name2
$name3
$name4
What I want to do is create a while loop that will print out the above 4
strings, incrementing the number part of string automatically.
while($count4) {
$count=$count+1;
echo"$increased_string_name\n";
}
But I just cant seem to work out how to increment the string name to
display it.
Any assistance on this would be great. I have a feeling that there is a
better method of attacking this but im only new to PHP and dont know it yet.
Thanks
Chris

[PHP] Weird Messages upon install upgrade
Hi All,
Ive just run into some bizarre problem. I upgraded to a more recent
version of PHP and have run into some bizarre problem.
We were running version 4.0bsomething on a FreeBSD box with Apache and ive
just installed 4.0.3pl1 and ive managed to get pretty much everything
working, except for a couple of sites ive designed im coming up with some
weird errors on functions which otherwise have been working fine. They
only started appearing when I upgraded the version of PHP.
Here is the errors im getting when I call the page.
---
Warning: Missing argument 2 for stripe() in /location/to/included/file.php on line 257
Warning: Missing argument 3 for stripe() in /location/to/included/file.php on line 257
---
Now, line 257 looks like this (ive included the rest of the function, but
the first line is line 257)
---
function stripe($title,$bgcolor,$fgcolor) {
global $darkcolor, $lightcolor;
if (!$bgcolor !$fgcolor) {
$bgcolor="$darkcolor";
$fgcolor="$lightcolor";
}
?
table BORDER=0 WIDTH="100%" BGCOLOR=?echo($bgcolor)?trtd
bfont color=?echo($fgcolor)? size=+1 FACE="helvetica,arial"nbsp;
? echo($title) ?/font/b/td/tr/table
?
}
-
This isnt the only function which is causing me problems but this is the
smallest one for an example.
Is there something I havent compiled into PHP properly? or can there be
something else?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

[PHP] Forcing htaccess login again
Now im even getting more confused. Ive been doing some more research into the subject, and cant seem to find any answers. All of the PHP documentation about headers() talks about auth via PHP, but doesnt mention anything about htaccess as the auth system. On my main.php screen, this is where the cookie gets set once the user logs in with htaccess. What im trying to do is incorporate a section into (possibly) main.php which forces the htaccess to rerequest login again using my .htpasswd password file as the criteria. Is there some sort of header information which will make the webserver turn around and say. "Hey, you shouldnt be here anymore, login again and I might think about letting you in" Because once I can get the user logging in again, it will go to the rest of main.php and unset/reset the cookie with the new user.

Give the option to "Log Out" which will clear the cookie, and also make htaccess re-request a login. Once it logs in again, the current scripts do their thang and log the new user in.

[PHP] Directory Listing with PHP
(Damn I hate it when I forget to change the subject) Does anyone have, or know of a script which simulates what Apache gives out when it shows the entire contents of a directory ? I find it very handy to use the directory listing of say graphics directories and the like, but I dont want others looking into them. What I thought would be a good system is to have an index.php file which asks for a password. If the password is accepted, it shoots them off to a php script which displays the contents of the DIR just as apache would. This way I can bar viewing of the directories contents, only viewable to the owners of the password. Ive seen a couple of scripts which claim to show the directory listing, but none of them seem to work any good with a decent layout and amount of file info. So im looking for a script which can display the listing properly. Does one exist, or am I just relieving myself into the wind ?

Re: [PHP] Levels of Access

Hey Guys,
I wonder if anyone can shed light...
I have a system that internal users access -
I have separated access levels into 1, 2, 3 etc. So if you have access 1
you can view certain things - If you are 2 then you can view more or other
things.
However the problem arises when someone in access level 1 wants to access a
level 2 function. I then manually specify that:
if (access = 2 or user=joe) {
Allow the functions ...
}
This can get messy - as individuals will be specified all over the place on
a large system to override levels of access.
Is there a sensible standard that is used to have levels of access but
special people can access certain higher level functions.?
Why not have a database with all usernames/passwords/access levels in
there, and when the user logs in (either with htpasswd or a form login
script system) that info is recorded by a cookie.
Than have a function which is at the start of every page which passes the
access level of the user, and which levels can access the page. Say there
was 5 levels, you could call the function this way
auth_user("$access_level","N","N","Y","N","Y");
The function just needs to grab the first variable as the users given
access level, then the next 5 variables state whether levels 1 thru 5 are
allowed to view the page (only level 3 and 5 can view it in the above
example). If the users access level returns a Y for its corresponding
level, then its allowed to proceed, otherwise they are shuffled off to a
page telling them to (nicely) go away.
I dunno if this is a clutzy way of doing it (chances are it is) but thats
how I would try and implement it, and you can also create a nice simple
admin screen system to maintain all users and access levels. Change it in
the DB and its instant on all pages.
Chris

[PHP] Extracting Data from a URL output
I have a bit of a question which ive tried to look into, but I cant seem to find the right commands to check into or what the best method of attack it. Basically, I want to grab a URLs data, make the data a string (which im doing with fopen and fread). But now I have the entire html as a string, Im confused as to how I best attack stripping just the data I need out of it. There is alot of stuff at the top of this particular page before the actual content starts. Is there anyone who has some examples of how they have attacked this type of task, or even just point me in the direction of how to start ? I have tried to utilise strstr() but because there is no real comon thread starting off the data I need, I cant really use it properly. There is always a common word in the data (its a local weather output). For example, today it was - ...size=4 color=whiteTodays weather will be 28 degrees in Sydney/font.. with a whole bunch of other site crap up the top. What im trying to do is simple extract everything between the and the wherever the word weather appears (its the common word) and its totally baffling me. Any help would be great.
