Oops, yeah the ob_start should have been:
ob_start(array(&$obSaveFile, 'write'), 1024);
The &$ in $&obSaveFile uses a reference instead of a copy of the
object (an old php4 trick, see more on references)
What will happen is anytime PHP's output buffer decides to write
the contents of the buffer, in this case I told it to do it when
ever 1024 bytes where collected, it will call:
$obSaveFile->write($contents_of_buffer);
Then your write() class method will write the buffer contents to
the file handle you opened in open().
the ob_end_flush() forces the rest of the buffer (<1024) to get sent too to
your write() class method, ensuring everything is written.

Here is the class in full (w/o error checking):
class SaveToFile {
var $file_handle;
function open($file) {
$this->file_handle = fopen($file, 'w');
}
function write($buf) {
fwrite($this->file_handle, $buf);
}
function close() {
fclose($this->file_handle);
}
}

In your php.ini there is a session idle timeout setting. The
inactivity John mentioned is set there. Otherwise, yes, as soon as
the browser is closed.

I wanna setup a tree structure. Each node in this tree is a
table. Each table has a "link" field. For each record, the
data in this field is a pointer to another table or null.
I read mysql manual but don't find any clues that SQL
supports such a "link" field. Does anyone has an idea about
that?
Thanks a lot!

Hi guys,
Recently, I had to reformat one of the web servers and now I have
encountered an unusual problem. I am not sure whether this is an issue which
can be fixed in the .ini file or whether its specific to the version of php
I am using.
Here is the problem:
$query="SELECT * FROM customizeViewClients WHERE employeeNum =
$employeeNum";
$results=mssql_query($query, $connection) or die("Couldn't execute
query");
$numRows=mssql_num_rows($results);
if($numRows>0)
{
$row=mssql_fetch_array($results);
}
$selectedCol=$row["selectedCol"];
echo $selectedCol;
$selectedColName=$row[$selectCol]; //<--- PLEASE NOTE THIS SPECIFIC
ROW
For some reason, on the last row, I am not unable to reference a particular
index in the array using a php variable. This has been working for almost 12
months and now the coding is breaking all over the place. I don't have an
answer. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thx.

Please give me the output, what do you get from "echo $selectedCol;"? If I
had to guess, it looks like you're confusing key and value of an
associatative array.
if
$row["selectedCol"] = 12;
$row["12"] does NOT equal "SelectedCol".
In fact, even if you used mysql_fetch_array, you will not be able to do a
reverse lookup like that.
Suppose you have the following :
$row['a'] = 1;
$row['b'] = 2;
$row['c'] = 1;
You can see that your approach is incorrect because what would $row[1]
return?
If this is NOT your question, please post your output(errors and all).

Note because you used $selectCol instead of $selectedCol?
I would also move the } to after this line so that you do not attempt to
access non-existent array elements when no rows are returned.

need a regexp to get the contents of this marker or one very simular:
{!STATISTICS:starbucks!}
what I am looking for is to get the "STATISTICS" and "starbucks" into
an array() if possible. I believe with the correct regexp this can be
accomplished using preg_split() or by getting the contents of the
marker and explode()'ing them. also i am looking to grab several
strings for a marker like this, for instance.
{!STASTISTICS:starbucks:blended:chocolate!}
Also if someone could direct me to a site that explains how to use and
create regexp in a small minded manor since I have been unable to
grasp the concepts.
Thanks in advanced,
Robert

A few tips for starting out with regex:
1) use PCRE, they are faster and ultimately more useful than the POSIX variety
2) Build up your regex step-by-step and test it at each step to see what is
being matched and what isn't (and why it isn't)
3) Use parentheses () to enclose the bits you want to 'capture' (extract).
4) Practice
5) More practice
So for your first example, as a first draft you can just capture everything
between the begin marker and the end marker:
$doo = '{!STATISTICS:starbucks!}';
preg_match('/\{!(.*)!\}/', $doo, $match)
$match[1] now contains: STATISTICS:starbucks
You can explode() it to get the constituent parts.
Or you can refine your regex:
preg_match('/\{!(.*):(.*)!\}/', $doo, $match)
So basically your first draft would match a large chunk of stuff, your
successive drafts would fine-tune it until eventually you're matching exactly
what you need.

I see that php 5.0.2 has added the "ldap_sasl_bind" function. I compiled
php-5.0.2 against our OpenLDAP w/ SASL support libraries, and went ahead to
give it a whirl:
#!/usr/local/bin/php
<?php
$ds = ldap_connect("ldap-test3.stanford.edu");
if($ds) {
$r = ldap_sasl_bind($ds);
} else {
echo "Unable to connect!";
}
?>
However, what I get back is:
<b>Warning</b>: ldap_sasl_bind() [<a
href='function.ldap-sasl-bind'>function.ldap-sasl-bind</a>]: Unable to bind
to server: Not Supported in
<b>/afs/ir.stanford.edu/users/q/u/quanah/cgi-bin/test.cgi</b> on line
<b>5</b><br />
In looking at the php 5.0.2 code I see:
if ((rc = ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s(ld->link, NULL, NULL, NULL,
NULL, LDAP_SASL_QUIET, _php_sasl_interact, NULL)) != LDAP_SUCCESS) {
This line seems a bit bogus to me -- All those nulls mean that a valid SASL
Mechanism is never specified to bind as.
For example, in perl, I've used:
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s($self->{"ld"}, $dn, $pass,
$self->{"saslmech"}, $self->{"saslrealm"},
$self->{"saslauthzid"}, $self->{"saslsecprops"},
$self->{"saslflags"});
(Note that for SASL/GSSAPI, the $dn & $pass can safely be ignored, as it is
my K5 credentials that determine my DN anyhow).
Is this feature expected to work yet?

I know if probably depends on what I want to do, so in short, I am

to create a temporary table that will be a composite of a ton of MySQL

about just
creating a new database table to push my query results into, but I

I would love any feedback!
I've never done it, but I think serializing the result and inserting
into a three column table with the query and a expiry date is pretty
common. If you were to write your own DB adapters and wrappers (rather
than using mysql_* directly), you probably wouldn't even notice the
extra code or whatever needed.
I don't think MySQL has anything built in.

I made this code to pick a random record from a changeable number of
records in a given table.
I'm just curious if any of the more awake coders out there can see a way to
optimize this for better performance, since there's several other DB
queries on the same page.
$records = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM persons") or
die('Unable to get record count<br>'.mysql_error());
$totalcount = mysql_result($records,0) - 1;
$rndrecord = rand(0,$totalcount);

$rndrecord,1") or die('Unable to get random record<br>'.mysql_error());
$personID = mysql_result($personquery,0);

Since you're using mysql, why not use the RAND() function?
$sql = "SELECT personID FROM persons ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1";
$query = mysql_query($sql) or die("Unable to get random record");
$personID = mysql_result($query, 0);
I've used this quite a bit -- much easier than using PHP to do it.

What about in MySQL:
SELECT personID from persons ORDER BY RAND(NOW()) LIMIT 1
If the table is large, then the following might be better:
LOCK TABLES foo READ;
SELECT FLOOR(RAND() * COUNT(*)) AS rand_row FROM foo;
SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT $rand_row, 1;
UNLOCK TABLES;
There's a whole discussion on it in the MySQL documentation web site:

Hi,
I'm a new member in this mailing list.
I have a problem with large data in mssql (more than 100.000 record in
one table). If I want to browse it from record 10 until 19 (like when
I press next button), php have to read all data (select * from table).
Is it posible to read only the record that I need (from record x1
untuk x2), without stored procedure?
Thanks before.

I'm running PHP as CGI instead of as an apache module because my hosting
1) suggests it and 2) this way I can compile my own PHP with whatever
options I want, including a custom php.ini.
Works great except when I load a page that doesn't exist, such as
foo.php, I get "No input file specified." Instead of the standard 404
error. Is there a way to customize this?
I've read about it and the consensus is that you can't. I don't
understand why not, though. Wouldn't it be easy to add a custom 404
error page via php.ini or something?

Easy with Apache [1,2], with en ErrorDocument [1] directive.
Ex with this in a .htaccess (the FileInfo Override [3] is required)
containing this line:

I am building a web based community forum type software using PHP. I am
currently working on how different user privelages are handled. Each
user is part of a group and each group has varying degrees of privelages.
I need to add in functionality which at the begginning of every script
check the permission level of the user accessing the page. There are
about 15 different permissions.
I am debating whether i should store all the permission abilities into
session variables and they can quickly be checked throughout the script,
or whether i should query the database to check to see if the user has
adequate group permissions to perform a certain function.
Could someone give me some advice as to which would be more advisable?

I think read from database better than from session, because it's more

Definitely store them in a session. A db lookup will mean a much heavier
and process intensive procedure.

I was wondering what the difference is between the various PHP sites linked
to in this list, are they mirrors and what determines which site you get
directed to when doing a search from www.php.net?
http://www.php.net
http://uk.php.net
http://us2.php.net
and presumably others...
Thanks

They're mirrors.

If you download you will be directed to a mirror, and that will then be
used as your default location. I tend to use the uk one myself.
The problem comes when you quote links and include your mirror in that -
just a problem that the Internet has yet to overcome. Perhaps local ip
addresses could be picked up by an ISP for things like google or php -
that would help reduce long distance traffic ;)

No, mssql can't do that. the only solution that i have is using
cursor, but I can't use codecharge to do that (and need much more time
to develop).
Thanks for your idea.
