[PHP] equivalent of qw?

2002-04-18 Thread Jack Dempsey

Hi all,

I often find myself creating long arrays like so

$a = array(
a
b
c
d
e
f
r
foo
bar
etc
...
);

is there an easy way I don't know about to quote those vars? Basically just
looking for an easier way to make such an array without adding teh quotes
and commas, something like perl's qw.

Thanks!

Jack Dempsey

echo $THIS_IS_A_VARIABLE\n;

  I sumbitted a similar patch to the Quanta team about a week ago. It may

  3.0.
 
  A few other additions I made:
 
  - highlighting is now case-insensitive for everything. I believe older
  versions were case-sensitive for keywords, like function, class, etc.
 
  - support for ASP-style opening and closing tags (% and % instead of
  ?php, ?, etc.)
 
  I'm also working on porting a newer editor from Kate/ktexteditor into
  Quanta. It's been slow going, but things have picked up (it compiles and
  runs now, albeit with a bunch of segfaults). This will make adding syntax
  highlighting instructions much easier, as the latest versions of Kate allow
  you to define highlighting rules in XML files, and the highlighting
  instructions are set up at run-time rather than compile time.
 
  Maybe over the XMas break I'll be able to finish it up.

 That will patch your source tree.. then just configure, make, install.

exactly...in the function you'd have to extract the variables then globalize

or you could loop through the arrays and store the keys and values in the

not as a criticism, but this is among the top 10 questions asked ...or used
to be for a while...anyway, there's tons of info on the mailing lists,
marc.theaimsgroup.com
the short answer is that echo is SLIGHTLY faster being a language construct
rather than a function...then again, i believe i remember someone proving the
opposite...in general, you'll never notice a differenece between the two...

Hello, I am trying to develop some WML apps using PHP.
To run WML apps into my local Apache (win98) server, I added

AddType application/x-httpd-php .wml

into httpd.conf. This works ok when calling directly from netscape
http://localhost/mywml.wml ,
treating script like a true PHP program.

BUT when writing a REAL WML app. (cards and so) and trying to run on
NOKIA simulator (by calling URL), it shows a parse error on line 1 (for
all scripts).
The same script, when executed in file mode on NOKIA sim (that is first
load .wml file and then press SHOW button) , works fine, proving the
error is not in script, but in way PHP interpret .WML pages.

I suspect PHP introduces some invisible code (just 1 byte?) or something
at beginning of .WML page.


Thanks for your attn.

that's because you're testing to see if '\n' is \n...single quotes mean:

Hi everyone:)

I need to validate a string that comes from a submitted form.
There's nothing unusual in it... but the problem part showes up, when I
need to validate a new line character...
I have tried many diffrent variations of the code and I have
ended up on something VERY simple:

?php
$regexp='\n';
$text=\n;
echo $text;
if (true==eregi($regexp, $text))
{
 echo 'ok';
}
else
{
 echo 'error';
}
?

Unfortunately this script results with error ;(
Does somebody know how to make this regexp to work?
Maybe it is a bug?
I am using php 4.0.6 on windows 2000.

I will appreciate any feedback about this ;)

RE: [PHP] Reg ex help-Removing extra blank spaces before HTML output

2001-12-06 Thread Jack Dempsey

second issue first:
one call to preg_replace...if you check out php.net/preg_replace, you'll see
what i mean...use arrays...
and as long as you have them ordered in the right way, it'll execute them in
that order, so by the time the \s replace comes up all your 'bbbnbb' will be
fixed...problem then is that those newlines would get caught by the \s and
get switched to spaces...so, if you want them to stay, then use [ ] to
represent a space instead of \s...might want [ \t] to catch tabs as well...
first issue: hard to see whats going on, but check your syntax. i just ran
this;
$text = this is some text with a newline in it right here \n  there it
was;
echo $text;
echo 'br';
echo preg_replace(/[ ]+\n+[ ]+/,\n,$text);
and it made the substitution fine.

Using \n (either in single or double quotes) resulted in actual 'backslash

Thanks, sounds about right.  The second pattern (which sometimes includes
getting rid of newlines) won't clobber the results of the first pattern?
And are you suggesting two separate calls to the preg* function?  It sounds
like you are, if each of the two patterns also has a unique replacement
string.

OK, this time the \n worked.  The only thing I changed was using /
delimiters instead of | delimiters in the search string.  No idea if/why
that would affect anything in the replacement string.

Anyway, I finally came up with exactly what I wanted:
preg_replace(array(/\s*\n+\s*/, /[ ]+/), array(\n,  ), $input);

All padding (defined as any series of spaces, newlines and sometimes tabs)
is removed from $input, but always leaving at least a space or a newline in
its place.  If there were any newlines in the padding, then a newline is
left.  If there weren't, then a space is left.

Thanks for the help!

true...he didn't mention newlines though so i left those out...also, since
PHP 4.0.4 $n [meaning $1], being the preferred one. you also don't need
double quotes and since + means 1 or more, i'd save myself some typing
$input = preg_replace('/(\s|\n)+/',$1,$input);
of course since you're now matching and replacing it'll take longer than a

RE: [PHP] Reg ex help-Removing extra blank spaces before HTML output

2001-12-05 Thread Jack Dempsey

actually it does... james' solution will work but I forgot to mention a
\s is whitespace, not a space, therefore it will get tabs, newlines, and
spaces. look at http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/perl/regexp.html
 \s matches any whitespace character (space, tab, newline)
therefore my suggestion works: 
$t = preg_replace('/\s+/',' ',$text);
its quicker to code, easier to understand, and will run faster because
it doesn't have to match and remember or do alternation...

Subject: [PHP] php without the php.ini


Hi,
How can PHP work without the php.ini file? I have tried to find the php.ini
file on a RAQ3, to no success. Looking at the php info and then looking at
the system directories doesnt yield anything.
The same goes with a server running the Plesk control panel.

Any ideas on how this is done?

you need some way of automating the process, and without cron automatically
doing things for you, you're going to be pressed for a solution...i'm not
sure what you could do because you need something to do this

You can drop in and out of php parsing, even in a control structure. So
something like

?php
if($this == 'that') {
?
H2That/H2
?php
} else{
?
H2The Other/H2
?php
}
?

will work just fine.

  for($i = $value1; $i = $value2; $i++)

  and it spat out all 223109 numbers (albiet after a VERY long time)
  can't see how adding mysql code would affect the loop...

RE: [PHP] Resetting ID in mySQL DB

say you have 100 records.
you delete number 36.
your db will then be 
...
34
35
37
38
...
correct?
after a delete, you could then say:
update table set id_num=id_num-1 where id  36
and this would update all relevant records

Hi,

I'm facing a problem. I made a simple DB with simple
adding records in DB operation. I've even put up a
JavaScript validation of the Form from where you add
info. And yet, in the display table, there are many
many blank fields. I don't know how they are
generated. 

The Adding of info form is at :
http://www.mjimm.com/index.php3?page=fanlist_add.php3

The display of records is at :
http://www.mjimm.com/fanlist_view.php3

Now the Display table also Displays the ID of the
Record. If i go in my mySQL Admnin, and delete the
rows with blank or duplicate records.. the ID also is
deleted but then is alway missing from the list. That
is, if i delete Row with ID 78, the next record feeded
will start from 79 and not 78. So there's gonne be
missing ID's from Records. Which i don't want. But
which has already happened. How can i correct it?? 
I want to reset the entire IDs to reflect the true
Number of records after i delete the Empty/Blank Rows
 Duplicate Record Rows!! How can i do that! Please
help!

Doesn't. That is it doesn't redirect to whatever $MYPATH/admin.php
translates to. Doing an echo $MYPATH directly after the line shows that the
path is interpreted correctly - and the file exists (I checked). And the
$name is correct - echo $name gives admin. And neither does the php.net
example work ...

if ($name='admin') {
header(Location: http://www.php.net/;);
}

doesn't redirect to php.net.

Using RH 7.1 and Apache 1.3.19

Want to install php4 and mysql combo and totally ignorant.

Installed php rpm.

Restarted apache in case that was needed.

made hello.php  and pointed browser at it.

Got the text, rather than executing it.

Can I surmise that apache isn't set up properly, and if so, could someone

RE: [PHP] @#$@# Reg Expressions

2001-10-29 Thread Jack Dempsey

brendan, please clarify: you're trying to strip out all links in the page
that is between
the a href and /a

you're trying to strip out all links and return them?
if so, split won't work.it splits on whatever the pattern is.
if you're trying to get all the links, you could do [this doesn't get a
name which is what you want i think]

preg_match_all(|(a href.*?/a)|,$html,$matches);

look at the preg_match_all page at php.net for info on how to use it


ITE($url);

$the_array=spliti(A (.*)/A, $html,-1); //spliti to avoid any case
sensitivity.
foreach($the_array AS $k) echo $k.HR;

I had given preg_split a go but just got flummoxed with the need to
slash everything ..


Martin .. I'd tried that .. but i get an array count of 0 from
$the_array ..(from $the_array=split(A ([^]*)/A, $html,-1);



echo count($the_array);

lots of ideas nick, but can you use a database? MySQL is free and i've found
its almost always better to use databases when you can...
if you can't, you could do something like this:
1. find the pos of the string you need using strpos
2. find the pos of the ending delimiter
3. substr from the first pos to the end (you'll need to add/subtract some
strlen's to slice off the delimiters as well...

Hey everyone,

Anyone out there know how i could do this:

I have a client who is an import car tuner.  They would like to feature the
cars they work on in their website.  Instead of creating a new .html or .php
file for every car they add to include the background setup, and the general
content (type of car, owner, etc...) i want to put the information in to
text file and search for it in there.

So that's where i need help.  I want to be able to put the info into a text
file and pass the string to search for through the URL, then match
everything between that line and an ending line in the text file, and print
that out to the browser.

Example: I want to pass a string using the URL (blah.php?car=civic_si) then
search for ##civic_si in the text file, and print everything until it finds
##end.  So the text file will look like this:

##civic_si
This is my content, blah blah
##end

##nissan

RE: [PHP] Form Question

2001-10-21 Thread Jack Dempsey

ok, several different solutions, best being:

1. use sessions. this is probably the simplest, most robust way of doing it,
after you've become familiar with sessions.
2. as someone mentioned before, use one page that posts to itself. this
would be easier than using sessions, but not as powerful.

 How do I change this to include a Post?

You can put it back on as a query string (kinda dirty, but you can't POST
it back).

?php
$myQueryString = FilledName=No;
while( list( $key, $val ) = each( $HTTP_POST_VARS ) ){
$myQueryString .=  . $key . = . $val;
}
if( $T3 ==  ){
header( Location: new_narrative.php? . $myQueryString );
}
?

RE: [PHP] Submit

2001-10-21 Thread Jack Dempsey

sure, have to states for your script, one is the normal blank form, the
second is the check.
in your check, validate the data. if its not good, print the form out again
with those values already filled in if they apply.
if it is good, redirect to a new page using header(); http://php.net/header
be careful not to output any before you make this header call.

parent_ID,
name

users contains:
username,

category_user_rights contains:
username,

How do I pull everything out of categories that a given user DOES NOT have

RE: [PHP] new to the list

2001-10-05 Thread Jack Dempsey

Hey Mick,

of course its ok...we've all done it that way (cept a few whose names you'll
learn soon enough ;-) )
a few suggestions:
1. www.php.net has most everything you could ask for...also, if you have a
function you want to learn more about, type it like this:
http://www.php.net/function_name (for example, http://php.net/date ) and
you'll be taken directly to that page in the manual
2. 98% of your questions are already answered. isn't that great? search the
mailing list at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalr=1w=2 This'll
be faster for you, save you any RTFM's, and in general reduce traffic for
the list
3. don't be afraid to try things out yourself. if you want to know if
something works, write a small script. take a second to think it through.
you'll learn more that way than any other method.
4. www.hotscripts.com and many others have tons of php scripts...check them
out to get a feel for what code really looks like

best of luck,
jack

RE: [PHP] accessing localtime array directly

2001-10-05 Thread Jack Dempsey

php doesn't support automatic dereferencing of arrays, so you can't just
throw the index on the back, but you could do this:

$julianday = array_slice(localtime(),7,1);

but then $julianday's an array...so you could wrap an array_pop around
that..although it gets you your val in one line, i think it many cases,
it's easier/better/more efficient to just grab the array in one line, then
access and copy the val in the second line, as you did...

 Theoretically, either/or I'm assuming. If A isn't 10 or A isn't 9...

But since A cannot be both 9 and 10 at the same time, A will *always* not
be one of them.

It's exactly the same as saying: if (!(A==9 AND A==10))

Obviously A cannot be both 9 and 10 at the same time so the above will be:

  if(!(false))  which is the same as   if(true)

Thanks for sticking with me here and for your examples!!

So basically, I need to use AND instead of OR.

}

elseif ($site_style==10) {

hrm... it didn't work.

Sorry for being such a dope about this :(

Jason



 Ok, you are clearly not following along here...  ;)

 You have (let $site_style = A for brevity):

 if( A!=10 OR A!=9 OR A!=8 )

 When A=10 this becomes:

 if( 10!=10 OR 10!=9 OR 10!=8 )
  falsetrue true

 if( false OR true OR true ) is the same as if (true)

 Seriously, try drawing the Venn diagram for your expression.

 Or try substituting common english.

 if Jason is not 21 or Jason is not 20 or Jason is no 19 let him into the
 cool club.

 Say Jason is 21, is he allowed in?  Sure he is, because one of the
 conditions for getting into the cool club is that Jason is not 20.  It
 doesn't matter that one of the other conditions says to not let Jason in.
 If the people writing the rules wanted to force all the conditions to
 apply they would have written:

 if Jason is not 21 AND Jason is not 20 AND Jason is not 19, let him into
 the cool club.

i often take results from mysql calls and build data structures with the

I'm working on a basic calendar app in PHP, but I've hit a snag.

The events are stored in a MySQL database, and the goal is to have the
events displayed on the correct day on the calendar.  The calendar is
generated through a couple of while() statements that loop through the weeks
and days.  I'm having trouble getting the events from the database match up
with the correct days.

I think the problem is that I can only loop through the database results
once.

The code looks something like this (lots of extraneous stuff trimmed):

 while ($day_of_week = 6)
  {
  while ($event_row = mysql_fetch_array($events))
   {
   $event_day = $event_row[event_day];
   if ($event_day == $day)
{
$event_name = $event_row[event_name];
print $event_name\n;
}
   }
  }

Since it seems to only loop through the while ($event_row =
mysql_fetch_array($events)) statement once (instead of the 30 times I want
it to loop through), I figure the issue is that after the one loop,
$event_row does indeed equal mysql_fetch_array($events).  So I try to unset
the $event_row after the loop, but that didn't work.  I even tried to make
$event_row into a variable variable name.  Couldn't get that to work either.

I'm running PHP version 4.0.6, if that matters.

thanks,
Karl

RE: [PHP] looping through database results

2001-09-30 Thread Jack Dempsey

Right, fetch-array just adds extra results to fetch-row.
Have you tried storing your results in an array that you can then loop
over later?

Thanks for your help, Andrew, but it didn't seem to work.  As I read the

manual (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-fetch-array.php),
mysql_fetch_array is much like mysql_fetch_row, except that it uses the
field names instead of numbers as the array key.  Somebody correct me if
I'm
wrong...

Andrew Elliston wrote:
 Try using:

 while ($event_row = mysql_fetch_row($events))

 instead. mysql_fetch_row will grab one row of the result array at a
 time, until there are no more rows. This sounds like what you want.
What
 you were doing was grabbing the entire result array and storing them
in
 one variable.

If it will help, here's the table structure -- looks like my structure

CREATE TABLE logged_in (

Thanks again.

 The problem with this is curtime returns a number in HHMMSS
 format and your
 extract
 returns MM so you get HHMMSS - MM which is always going to be greater
than
 60
 unless you are running your script in the first minute of the day (ie
 37 - 49).

 Try this instead:

 select * from sessions where $timein + interval 1 hour = now();

  Theoretically, here is what I understand, please let me know whether

Hi All,

I have a PHP script that i want to run every few minutes (via cron) but I
only want it to run if it isn't already running.

Is there something in cron itself to solve this or is there a way within PHP
to detect that another instance of the current script is running and if so
exit the new instance before it does anything...

eg. I could have a function to use like so:

if (already_running($SCRIPT_NAME)) {
exit();
}

 At 08:54 PM 9/18/2001 -0400, you wrote:
 so then that last line in the loop should be
 $new_data[] = $ln;
 During the loop, everytime it comes to this line, $ln is added to the
