IIRC older versions of PHP allowed multiple declarations of a function.
Somewhere along the line this was changed.

Hi Andre,
make sure to use require_once for all includes. This will make sure to only
include each file once and will trigger a fatal error if the file cannot be
found because of a wrong path or whatever.
Hope this helps, Torsten Roehr

Thanks for the idea, Josh.
I will do this, but still this hack doesn't answer the question: "Why does it
work locally without hitch, yet totally barfs on a very similar configuration
on the net?"
As I mentioned, this is a re-write. I've learned my lesson: never try to patch
another's code -- write it fresh! There is simply way too much weird behavior
happening with the present code: sessions not passing, odd error messages
about redeclaration, and conditionals where both are passed.
Time to dump it and start fresh!
Thanks (to everyone) for your help and pointers!

So after the directories are created, those are the actual permissions that
are on them? Did you actually check this or are you assuming it? If you can,
please show us the output of 'ls -al' of the directories in question.

No, I think you are wrong. There was GROUP BY pics.id so it won't return
duplicate data. And probable overhead is eliminated too I think - DBserver
will optimize and will join data from pic_comments only once for each
unique pics.id.

The results will be something like:
id submitter count pic_id comment
1 joe 4 1 comment1
1 joe 4 1 comment2
1 joe 4 1 comment3
1 joe 4 1 comment4

Hi Juan Pablo,
the manual says:
"mail() automatically mails the message specified in message to the receiver
specified in to . Multiple recipients can be specified by putting a comma
between each address in to."
This should answer your question. Otherwise take a look at the manual page:
http://de2.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

Hi,
I'm running PHP 5.0.0 with Apache 2.0.50 and have a problem with the
php_check_syntax function. When I use it, it loads all functions ans
classes. But I only want to check the syntax, not to load the files.
Is this a bug or a feature ?

I'd say it was a bug, but since the function isn't really documented,
it's hard to say what the intent of the function is.
There's already this bug regarding the second parameter:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29454
This function seems really screwy anyhow. If I have a function foo() in
the file I'm checking and a function foo() in the main PHP file declared
after I check the syntax... I'll get a failure for checking the syntax
of the file... even though there isn't one.
test.php
<?php
$b = php_check_syntax('test1.php');
if(!$b)
{ echo 'Error in syntax'; }
function foo()
{ echo 'test.php::foo'; }
foo();
?>
test1.php
<?php
function foo()
{ echo 'test1.php::foo'; }
?>
I get the "Error in syntax" message although test1.php loads without
error on it's own and the foo() call outputs "test.php::foo"...
I'm going to open up a bug report and go over some of this. Seems like a
very handy function to have if it worked correctly.

Actually I found this bug (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27406) which
has the answer we're all looking for: Don't misuse the function. Very
helpful, eh? I added a comment to please enlighten us what the proper
usage was, so maybe that'll help.

Hi,
What is the reason, thath in the installation manual of PHP writes:
"WARNING:
Do not use Apache 2.0 and PHP in a production environment neither on Unix
nor on Windows. "
Thanks,
Rosen

--- Begin Message ---
Hi Rosen,
It doesn't hurt to use google you know.
[Q:]
Is there going to be a version of PHP 4.x which is declared stable for use
with Apache 2.x or, is this feature going to be reserved for PHP5?
[A:]
The development of the Apache 2 module is completely disconnected from the
PHP 5 efforts. I think that these efforts have slowed down to a halt, mostly
because of lack of interest in the PHP development community, mostly because
the only reliable way of using PHP and Apache 2 together is using the
prefork MPM, which is effectively very similar to Apache 1. Good Apache 2
connectivity is going to come at some point, but I'm not exactly sure when
it would be.
Basically PHP isn't threadsafe, and Apache2 uses threads.
I hope that helps.

If you're on windows I recommend using WinCVS and CVSnt. Also, you
should check for SubVersion and RapidSVN. I like them more, but have the
problem taht not intergrate with as many development tools as CVS.
On Linux, just check for CVS or Subversion. gCVS is also a nice
interface to CVS.
