RE: [PHP] Other than substr
What do you want it to look like in the text boxes?

RE: [PHP] FOXED - no success in replacing file content using fgets/fputs and str_replace
Some editors let you find/replace in files in a certain folder. That might be easier. I know UltraEdit let you do this and it only takes a few minutes.

Php. Net Subject: [PHP] FOXED - no success in replacing file content using fgets/fputs and str_replace I need to replace some html code in about 100 files. Wanted to do this through code, and am using fgets() to get a line at a time from the file, this string is saved in variable $line. Then I check for the occurrence of the search string in $line using strpos(). If found, I echo some statements, and I wanted to replace the search text with replace text using str_replace(). The strange thing is that while the code is able to search out the strings correctly, it doesn't replace the text. The $line var loses its value for no reason. I check for the occurrence of the search string if($pos=strpos ($line, $strfrom)) but when within the if block I try to echo $line I don't get the value, so str_replace doesn't work either. everything else works fine, the strangest thing is that I tried echoing the $line value before the if block and it doesn't print anything, but it works for the if condition. I am getting the no of files and the line nos, where the search string occurs, but no replacements happening. This is the replacement code: $newline=str_replace ($strfrom, $strto,$line); echo brNew Line $newline; if(is_writable($file)) { echo brwritable:; if(fputs($fd,$newline)) $replaced_links++; } Am I missing something really obvious here? thanks.

Unless you want to submit or use frames, you need to use JavaScript to populate the second dropdown based upon the value of the first one.

[PHP] including functions, passing objects I created
I have a line class that I'm using to draw a line graph of up to 5 lines. Since I query the db for each of those lines (with a # as lineNum), my code to take everything out of the fetch_arrays is fairly cumbersome. I use this code in 4 different programs (the graph, the printable graph, the data table, and the accessible [D]). To avoid code duplication, I'd really like to be able to pass $sql and the 5 lines to a function in a different file, that all 4 of my programs can use. I have tried both function runSQL ($sql, $line1, $line2...) { ... } and function runSQL ($sql, $line1, $line2...) { ... return array ($line1, $line2...); } but both ways timeout. Is there any way for me to put data into my line objects from a function? I know that the include is working because I have a test function that just prints out Hello. I've checked the manual, but it doesn't say anything about having a user-made object as a param or a return. Thanks for any info you may have! -Natalie Natalie S.

RE: [PHP] Retrieving text from a URL using PHP
In theory, I would guess you could use combinations of explode and strstr to maybe explode on , then run strstr on so you get everything after the but before the next . Then you'd probably have to implode it or something. There might be a better way to do it with just substr and strstr so you don't have to explode it...

RE: [PHP] Graphs using PHP
Hi, Jason. I'm developing some really cool line/point and bar graphs. While the Image stuff is definitely quite different, I think you'd really like it once you get into it. Our graphs are generated dynamically from data in a database. I can't show you the graphs because they aren't ready for the public yet, but on the line/point graph we actually have the points as different shapes and stuff - circles, triangles, squares... Once we get the new version of PHP we'll be using styled lines (dot dash dash kinds of things) with a width, so they will be easily copied in to PowerPoint presentations. It's a lot of work to get it started, because you have to figure out where you're going to want everything to go, but I recommend trying it. Start by drawing some rectangles and filled rectangles and stuff like that. Oh, and when you use ImageTTFText, I recommend that for smaller fonts you use -$fontColor instead of just $fontColor - it comes out clearer. For bigger fonts sometimes the blurry one is better because it's less pixilated. Good luck!

One more question - could you just use $_GET[$QUERY_STRING} then? Our URL doesn't even have IDs - it's just 00106055... Then I explode it and put it into variables. There are up to 12 vars that we pass that way so we didn't label them. Thank you!! We're not worried about security - if someone tampers with the URL then the database query doesn't work and they get an error message (my vote was for don't be an idiot and play with things you don't understand) but my boss didn't think it was cute. :-) Thanks again! -Natalie -Original Message- From: 1LT John W.

That is because of security reasons so it's not _quite_ as easy to write insecure scripts. With register_globals off, a URL like index.php?page=4 will not give you a $page variable, only $_GET['page'], or $HTTP_GET_VARS['page']. If your using HTTP_GET_VARS now, then you'll be fine. The new $_GET[] array is just like HTTP_GET_VARS except its easier to type and it's always global (even in functions and classes, etc). If you turn on register_globals, any script you have now will run just fine on the latest PHP as far as accessing GET, POST, COOKIE, etc data is concerned. Hope that helps.

I came from PERL and this was not a problem there but is with PHP. Here's the issue. I have a number of scripts that use a index.php?Task='some sort of task name', for example, http://www.foo.com/index.php?Task=ShowVersion http://www.foo.com/index.php?Task=ShowVersion . Then I use an if/else statement to tell the script what to do if it sees the ShowVersion variable. In the ShowVersion example, I would call a function that displays the version information I defined in the script. As a back up, I always provide an else statement to catch variables I have no functions for. If I have a ShowVersion function, GetData function and a CreateImage function and the Task variable is empty or a variable that does not exists comes in like http://www.foo.com/index.php?Task=SomethingDumb http://www.foo.com/index.php?Task=SomethingDumb it would go to the default function of something by using the ELSE part of the if/else statements. I hope I am describing this correctly.now here is the problem. If I have warnings turned on, or if I have a log written for warnings, the log fills up if someone goes to http://www.foo.com/index.php http://www.foo.com/index.php or http://www.foo.com http://www.foo.com will error messages like undefine variable TASK on line 255. I understand the reason, that PHP was expecting the variable Task when it got to the if/else statements. So I put in something like if(!($Task)) { function Something(); } but it still is looking for the variable so it still errors. In Perl, it would simply be ignored. What do I do here. Here is a simple example of the code. if ($Task == ShowVersion) { function ShowVersion(); } elseif ($Task == GetData) { function GetData(); print $DataOutput; } elseif ($Task == CreateImage) { function CreateImage(); } else { print Incorrect Variable or no Variable Suppliesbr; } Christopher J.

You could, in theory, submit your query to an intermediate file, which only displays the Searching screen, but is querying your database and throwing everything you need into hidden fields in a form. Then have that form have an onLoad submit to your results page. I did this with HTML submitting to Perl submitting to PHP until we got the PHP/DB problems worked out.

[PHP] creating Image to display without saving it.
I've got a page where I create an Image that I want to put into one of my HTML table cells. I've been doing this by saving the file, chmoding it, and then opening it using image source in the HTML. The problem is that when you do that, the new version of IE has that stupid pop-up window when you mouseover on an image. When I create an Image in a different file, and have the image source tag linking to that filename, for some reason there's no pop-up window. Is there any way for me to create the Image in the same file and include it in the page without saving it and opening it? We just did usability testing and everyone hated the little popup that Microsoft gave us. Thanks! -Natalie Natalie S. Leotta Information Management Services, Inc. (301) 680-9770 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] refreshing PHP on onClick
This might be a little bit JS and a little bit PHP. I'm wondering if there's an easy way to refresh a PHP page on an onClick and change one parameter (say someone wants to redraw the graph, but with the points). I don't want to pay attention to any of the other parameters that could have changed on the screen (we've got a bunch of selects). We had come up with a really complicated way which involved changing the parameters to the most recent line drawn, deleting the most recent line, and then submitting with those parameters and the showPoints value changed, but that sounds pretty complicated. If anyone could come up with a quicker way that didn't involve the whole submitting thing, that would be easier. My page has all of the vars that are necessary in hidden vars, and has HTML, PHP, and a handful of JS. Thanks! -Natalie Natalie S. Leotta Information Management Services, Inc.

[PHP] ImageLines with styles
Hello. I'm drawing line graphs and for each line they want a different style (dots, dashes, etc.). I can't find a way to make the line draw thicker than normal, and the regular thickness isn't thick enough.

RE: [PHP] $this-
Hi, Steve. $this refers to a specific instance of a class. The - accesses a property or method associated with this class. So, in your class, say it's class car, and in your constructor you want to initialize the color to red, you'd do $this-color = $red; Outside of the class, with your $car variable, you'd change it by using $car-color = $red; It's similar to the Java . accessor (and the this is also similar to Java's this).

RE: [PHP] passing vars. betn. php and javascript
Is there any reason that you have to use JS to redo the array? I did something like this once and had the buttons monitored by JS, then when you click it set a hidden var (with a name like sort) and submitted the page. Then my PHP read in everything and redrew the graph based on what we were sorting by. It wasn't as difficult as it sounds - the only problem was they decided that it wasn't pertinent to that graph, so we aren't using it anymore.

RE: [PHP] dynamic drop down
Do you want to submit every time the dropdown changes? If you just want the second dropdown to update and don't want a submit, let me know. I am doing this in one of my programs and I can send you some code if you think it would help. Ex of my program: We want to show populations. There's a state box and when you select a state then the county box fills up with counties for that state (along with an Entire State option). We have them set up using boxes that are 3 tall, I think (maybe 5). For some reason it didn't work as well when we did regular dropdowns, so this was our current workaround. We use onload in the body tag, onchange in the state box tag, and use a JS method to populate the second dropdown.

First, you need to use JavaScript (I think the onchange handler) to automatically submit the form when the user selects an option from the dropdown list. That's no big deal. But to maintain the querystring, you will need to do a bit of finagling -- but it's nothing hard. You could either use $_SERVER['QUERYSTRING'] and place the value of this variable into a hidden form field, or you could do a foreach ($_GET) and concatenate the results into a string and place that into a hidden form field.

[PHP] ImageCreate v. ImageCreateTrueColor
Hello, I'm making an Image and I was wondering what the difference is between these two Image constructors. I need to find a way to make dotted and dashed lines (according to different patterns I've been given) and I want the sections between the dots to be transparent. I'm planning on using the ImageSetStyle function. From what I read on PHP.net, some things cannot be used with ImageCreateTrueColor, but it looks like some can only be used that one.
