how 'bout something like

$and = '';
if ($lastname != '') {
$query .= "lastname = $lastname";
$and = ' and ';
}
if ($firstname != '') {
$query .= $comma."firstname = $firstname;
$and = ' and ';
}
and so on

construct your query like
$query = "select * from table where ";
lastname='$lastname' and
> firstname='$firstname' and age='$age' and weight='$weight'";
if (isset($lastname) and $lastname !="") then
$query.=" lastname=$lastname ";
if (isset($firstname) and $firstname !="") then
$query.=" and firstname=$firstname ";
and so on.......
You may need to do some more checking like if there already been a field
selected earlier if so then add "AND " before the current field else don't
add the "AND ".
Hope that helps.

that should be flexible enough for you to add new

Hi,
Is it possible that I would get the wrong ID (Not the ID I just inserted in
Auto_Increment field) by using mysql_insert_id function if someone is also
inserting record at the same time? How does mysql_insert_id work accurately?
Thanks,
Wee

=A couple of things here:
1 if the field is defined as "Auto_Increment" then YOU will not insert an ID. Leave
the field out of the INSERT
statement or transfer NULL, and MySQL will insert the correct ID value according to
the 'increment' policy.
The construction of the mysql_insert_id() looks like this:
$AutoIncrementId = mysql_insert_id( $MySQLConnection );
Note that the function argument is the connection to MySQL (not the db/tbl !). Thus
the ID is a by-product of
the connection (and the most recent INSERT it handled) - re-read the appropriate page
in the manual for more
information, if required.
2 because the (function argument) controlling feature is the connection, it is not
possible for another
concurrent user to 'steal' your ID or influence the ID returned to you - it's all
yours!
The only way to get the "wrong" ID is to perform two IDs and then (vainly) try to get
hold of the previous ID -
only the latest ID is available.
Clear now?

Good day,
This isn't a PHP question, but hey...
This is dependant on the database platform that you're using. The suggested
statement would work on MySQL. On Informix, for example, you would say
'where lit_source matches "c*" '.
You should consult your database manual for more information.

The problem is that this line:
$rpm_list = `rpm -qa`;
gives back a string, so use this:
$rpm_list = `rpm -qa`;
$rpm_list = explode("\n", $rpm_list);
and see how that goes

The frustrating part is, I had this working on OS X 10.0.4. I am now
running 10.1.2 Server.
I successfully build OpenLDAP and it is working fine.
I successfully built a version of PHP 4.0.6 for OS 10.1 with the
instructions found at
http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/php.html. It compiled without
error using:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
--mandir=/usr/share/man --with-apxs --with-zlib --with-
ldap=/Users/quinn/Desktop/Services/ldap/ldap --disable-pear
--enable-trans-sid
After moving the libphp4.so and editing the httpd.conf file, I started
the web server, but got the following error:

Now...my OpenLDAP works fine. My PHP with LDAP compiled without error.
Anyone have any ideas as to what might be wrong?

I would concur with what everyone else is saying. If you need a search
engine and you have system-level access on your machine, your best
bet is to set up either htdig or mnogosearch (open source search
engine packages) because they already have done the hard work of
figuring out fuzzy matching and search ranking.
http://www.htdig.org/
http://mnogosearch.org/
Alternatively, if you are using a database you can use some tricky sql
statements to search your records for the user's search query. Here's
a good tutorial that should get you started on this route:

PHP isn't totally bad for a search engine. Here's my story.
I was in a bit of a predicament when I first started work, because I had to
develop a search engine for online video objects. My company is essentially
a video re-purposing venture, where we take reams of analog, tape-based
videos, encode them into something like MPEG or ASF or whatever, create
clip indexes (i.e. a 30 minute clip is broken up into 10x 3-minute clips,
with each clip described and categorized) and provide a search engine and
interface to watch clips or videos on the web via a broadband connection.
(An added bonus is that you can create your own "video" via personal
playlists -- you can take 10 different clips from 10 different videos and
run them together into one playlist, all online. In a few months, you'll be
able to create your own clips if you don't like our predefined ones.)
Anyways, the search engine thing was my deal. I'm the only programmer
(*period*) on our team, and I basically had to write a search engine, web
site backend, admin interface and all that jazz for our app alone. I was
hired March 6, 2001 or so, and I had until, oh, April 15, 2001 to do it.
Plus there were a few conditions -- like, it should be portable and
inexpensive.
PHP seemed like a good choice -- it was portable (Win32, *ix, whatever), it
was cheap ($0) and it isn't too bad for rapid development.
So off I was. I did manage to finish the search engine and back end by
April 15, but it was a mess. It wasn't exactly a stellar search engine, but
more of a proof of concept, which was the whole point of the project -- to
show that we could provide high quality streaming video through a browser
with a relatively good interface.
After the proof-of-concept project, we started to get serious, and I
dropped most of the code base and started again from scratch.
Pretty much the entire search engine now is in PHP, with the sole
exceptions being the keyword indexer (Perl, as PHP was a lot slower doing
the indexing) and a few extensions to the PHP engine.
The search engine itself is fairly fast -- it can do a keyword search on a
collection of nearly 8,000 video objects in an average of 0.02 to 0.20
seconds or so, depending on the complexity of the query. It's features
include:
* "Boolean"-type searches. Okay, not really, as in you can't use AND, OR
and NOT, but you can use +/- style prefixes like in mnoGoSearch and
whatnot. Words are automatically OR'ed, +'d words are AND'ed and -'d words
are NOT'ed.
* Decent search times. On a PIII 500 with 128 MB of RAM, it still averages
less than 0.20 seconds for a collection of 8,000 video objects and over
100,000 keywords.
* Filtering. We're mostly an education-based site, so you can filter by
things like subject (Physics, Chemistry, etc.) and grades (Kindergarden,
grade 10, college, etc.)
* Spellchecking and somewhat fuzzy searches. Spellchecks work okay, but the
fuzzy searches is kind of lame. (Porter stemming.) I might shoehorn in
something like Metaphone-type stuff eventually.
* Search ranking. Yes, keywords are given weights, everything is ranked and
all that jazz. You know, inverse document frequencies, collection
distribution, all that stuff. In the end, video objects returned in a
search are given a ranking of 1 to 4 based on how well they match your
query. It's not terribly advanced, and could use some tuning, but it's
surprising how well it works.
* XML-based. The search engine itself runs as it's own daemon on either
it's own server or along side the web site, and just waits for connections
via a UNIX domain socket or a TCP socket. When it receives a query, and
sends back an XML document containing the search results. This is
especially nice -- you can use it with anything for any purpose, not just a
web site, i.e. you can build an native app for Windows and you can still
use the search engine, and just format the results via an XSL or whatever.
There are a lot of other nifty features, like being able to do remote admin
via telnet or whatever. But in the end, it's still just a decent search
engine and definitely not Google or even htdig. It's very focused on our
specific task, the searching of online educational videos, so something
using something like htdig would have required a lot of hacking to get it
to where we wanted it.
So the morale I guess is, sure, you can make a half-decent search engine
out of PHP. Ours gets the job done. But remember, I only had, like, a scant
few months to write one, plus a web-based app to go around it, and I was
alone on this one. PHP was great for RAD, and the damn thing even works to
boot. My search engine could handle a web site easily enough, maybe even a
group of sites, but it would totally suck ass as a WWW indexer/spider-type
search engine.
So there ya go.

a stable version of the template class
and other stuff PEAR-like-made are available at
http://wolfram.kriesing.de/programming
especially the _template_class_ which can also *translate* your
templates without the need of wrapping every string in a function
call or something
the translation can also be used with other template engines, like
smarty i guess
see example at:

Hi everyone :
I got a amagzing problem about javascipt after integrate to php. PHP will
modify the ouput of javascipt, produce the error when first load that page.
However, reload this page, no error.
Orginal javascipt:
function f31(v31,v23,ocjs,hrck,cn)
{
return "<a onclick=\""+ocjs+"\"
Become :
function f31(v31,v23,ocjs,hrck,cn)
{
return "<a onclick="\"""+ocjs+"\"
Add extra " "............., this produce error...... but reload is
alright........
And i try this page file extension to .htm then everything is ok....
therefore i think php did some pre-process before send ouput.
I try to turn off magic quote setting in php.ini but still have a problem.
Thank for you help

When you echo or print to the HTML stream, strings are delimited by " or '.
Your case, return "<a onclick=\""+ocjs+"\", is correct JS but not PHP.
When you want to echo this in PHP you must echo it as
return \"<a onclick=\\\"\"+ocjs+\\\\
in order to counter the strings being ended before time.
More info:

Another function you might want to look at is stripslashes():

Hi everyone,
I'm not sure what I have done wrong here. I haven't been sucessful in
finding anything that points to what the cuase could be.
What I find interesting is that I have used session in another area of the
web site with out problems. The only difference between it and the way I
have done it here is that I'm using the header function in this bit of code,
where as the session is started and variables registered and the processing
is done on another page.
Anyway here is the code for the log in page:
<?php
session_start();
file://session_unset();
include('./connectDB.php');
include('./commonfunctions.php');
?>
function checkdetails($db, $HTTPVARS) {
//check if allowed access
$user = $HTTPVARS['uid'];
$passwd = $HTTPVARS['passwd'];
$sql = "select * from tbl_maxware where loginID = '$user' and password =
'$passwd';";
$result = $db->query($sql);
checkError($result, $db, "Error in checkDetails");
if ($result->numrows() == 0) {
echo "<html><body>";
echo "<h2>Error Loging In</h2>";
echo "<br>Not a valid login try again or contact the admin<br>";
echo "<a href=\"./login.php\">Try Again</a>";
echo "</body></html>";
exit();
} else {
// matched in the maxware table
$result->fetchinto($success);
$UID = $success[0];
$logUID = $success[1];
$logName = $success[2];
//echo session_save_path();
session_register("UID", "logUID", "logName");
// send them to the main page
header("Location: ./supportau.php");
}
} // end checkdetails
if (array_key_exists( "uid", $HTTP_POST_VARS ) ) {
checkdetails($db, $HTTP_POST_VARS);
} else {
login();
}
?>
Code for the following "main page"
<?php
session_start();
include( './connectDB.php' );
include('./commonFunctions.php');
?>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style>
<!--
@import url(./max.css);
@import url(./supportAU.css);
@import url(./link.css);
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Support Database</h2>
<center>
<table width="90%" border="1">
<tr><td rowspan="2" width="30%">
<!--<table width="100%" border="1" bgcolor="#887766">
<tr><td> -->
<?php
echo "Name= $logName";
<snip>
This returns an error:

Most basic thing you need is explained in Zend API Doc.
Visit www.zend.com for the document.
BTW, api docs in source dist is too old. It does not

I presume you have created dynamically loadable
modules in PHP4.
If so, how do you create your module file?
Do you run a specific make command or do you build it
manually?
Thanks for your help...

Again, read Zend API manual...
You are also interested in README.EXT_SKEL file that can
be find under PHP source root.
There is a nice program that create skelton for new
modules :)
If you are plainning to marge PHP source dist, use CVS
source instead of source distribution.

I'm stuck here too. Don't know that much in the first place except
that I did get it together once. Apache/php4/mysql on win32... Now
to upgrade it's all new again.
I'm sure php config files are ok to the point where apache picks it
up. There is no 4.1.1 file as called for in the apache loadmodule
line. Instead of /sapi/php4dll, the closest I find is
/sapi/apache/php4dsp. I can also remember some file extensions being
renamed but can't find anything on that now.. Any clue where I'm
losing it will be very helpful I'm sure.
Thanks.

This may be more of an Apache question, but I was hoping that someone here
would have an idea about this.
I tracked down a bug in one of my scripts that was caused by environment
variable that was being registered as global without my knowledge (due to
the register_globals setting). My script was depending on this variable
not being set in certain conditions but I didn't take into account the fact
that it could be set via an environment variable.
While troubleshooting this I was looking through the output of phpinfo()
and I found something curious in the environment variables across the three
different servers that I administer. All three are running Redhat, Apache
1.3.19, and PHP 4.0.4.pl1, with PHP compiled as an Apache module
(--with-apxs). One of the servers is Redhat 7.0, the other two are Redhat
7.1. On both the Redhat 7.1 servers, phpinfo() reports the following
environment variables:
user: michaels
logname: michaels
bash_env: /home/michaels/.bashrc
mail: /var/spool/mail/michaels
"michaels" is the user account that I use on these servers to do a majority
of my work, only su'ing to root when absolutely necessary.
I'm confused as to why these variables exist. I know for a fact that
Apache is running as "nobody". That's what the httpd.conf file is
configured for and I can verify that by viewing the output of "ps aux" I
did build apache and php as this user, but I su'ed to root for the "make
install" portion. I launched apache with "apachectl" as root.
On the Redhat 7.0 machine these env vars don't exist.
Can anyone enlighten me or perhaps point me to a source of more info? Any
help would be appreciated...

Following up to my own post:
Apparently these variables are set whenever Apache is started (via
"apachectl start"). Whatever environment variables exists in the context
that apachectl is called in will apparently be put in HTTP_ENV_VARS (and
subsequently be made global if register_globals is on).
On the servers that have my username as "LOGNAME" I apparently started
Apache by first logging in as "michaels", then using "su" to get to root,
then starting Apache. Since I didn't log in as root or su using the "-" or
"-l" options, whatever environment variables were set as my normal user
stayed in effect, and thus Apache picked them up when the httpd daemon was
started.
What had confused me before was that these vars didn't change after an
"apachectl restart" but I've since found out that this only causes Apache
to re-read it's configuration (SIGHUP)...it doesn't actually kill the
process and restart it.
Sorry for the semi-off-topic info, but I'm posting this just in case
someone read my original message and was similarly confused.

This has been discussed a number of times here. Apache will always inherit
the environment of the user that starts it. You should start it with a
clean environment. ie. add "env -i" to whatever script starts your httpd
server.

I am attempting to build a dynaminc module loadable by apache 1.3.x. But
once the (./configure, make, make install, cp php.ini-dist, configure
httpd.conf) process is complete, I restart apache, and try to access a php
page (<? phpinfo() ?>) and I am asked if I would like to download the
page, which is not the expected or desired behavior. :/
Reading through the INSTALL file and the php.net FAQs, I did notice that
there was a mention of copying the compiled httpd directly over the
existing one. Would that not indicate a static module had been compiled?
Else where it appears a libphp4.so is created and placed in the modules/
directory. When I attempt to put a LoadModule directive in my httpd.conf
file to tell apache about the module, I get the following error from
apachectl configtest:
Syntax error on line 205 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
API module structure `php4_module' in file
/usr/local/apache/modules/libphp4.so
is garbled - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO?
I read this one of two ways, a) 'php4_module' is not the correct way to
refrence this module, or b) the libphp4.so module is corrupted, somehow.
Is either one of these right?
I've recompiled twice now, and still no luck. If I comment out the
LoadModule directive, it starts, but my browser asks if I want to download
the php page instead of displaying it.
Has anyone encountered this before?

Try APD.
http://apd.communityconnect.com/
It's a degugger and profiler.
It does not show all of bench you want,
but it works well for profiling.
For CPU/RAM/DISK, you can take system bench
while you are accessing scripts.

Hello,
disable_functions still works ONLY via setting in php.ini.
I think this is a bug.
ini_set("disable_functions", "phpinfo");
has no effect,
php_value_admin disable_functions phpinfo
shows the correct output from phpinfo with one line for
disable_functions phpinfo...
At least this is a bug.

I'm not sure what you mean can you be a little more detailed?
I can tell however that PHP is *not* a substitute for HTML. If you want
something like the <a> tag then *use* the <a> tag.

Hi,
I have had a few problems retrieving MySql entries that contain quote marks.
Slashes have been added before storing an item description such as:
17" SVGA Monitor.
They've been removed before display too - and the description appears
correctly on a page except when displaying in a text box (for an
administrator to edit the item description. When displayed in a text box the
description just shows 17. The only solution I can find is to swap the quote
marks for " when storing the item initially and when any update has
been submitted by the user.
Is this the best way, and are there any other characters waiting to cause
the same problem that I don't know about yet?
Thanks,

Hey all,
Does PHP support lazy evaluation? Meaning that if:
if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['submit'])

does PHP stop evaluating after the first condition if $HTTP_POST_VARS is
not set?
(please CC me in replies)
