Then you suggest fragmenting the list into 3 factions, those who would
continue to use the list, those who would use the forum, and those who
would use both. By such a fragmentation of the list, solutions and
advice would be spread across multiple locations thus diluting the
efficacy of the list.

Well, let me give you a different example. I don't have a TV at all,
even though I could buy one. Knowing this, would you assume that I don't
like watching it?
The same thing with forum. It's a usual feature, just like website is.
Would you be surprised if PHP had no website? Would you ask why it doesn't?

Are you saying that I'm the only PHP user that might like discussing
things on a forum? Again, forums are very common. Some people like them,
other people like mailing lists. In case of PHP, I find the lack of
forum weird, because it's a web development language.
Besides, you're implying that maintaining forum is "extra work", while
maintaining mailing lists isn't. Extra work for extra users you can live
without, eh?

I do not see anything horrible in my message. It's not like I'm
_demanding_ something, or suggesting to tear down mailing lists. Neither
did I suggest that mailing lists suck. In case of php.internals they
totally make sense. But I _do_ think that forum efficient in case of
high-volume messaging.

I seriously doubt that giving people a choice over communication methods
would reduce efficiency. It's like saying that having multiple OSes
reduces efficiency of programming.

I didn't use the word efficiency, I used the word efficacy (feel free to
look it up).

They're synonyms, and I do not see a big difference in their meanings.
Feel free to disambiguate.

Efficiency is about output versus input. Efficacy is about the ability
to produce an effect regardless of input. While there is obviously a
degree of overlap in their meaning, and while they can be considered
synonyms due to that overlap, they are not the same. Just as gargantuan
and large are synonyms, they are hardly the same thing in context. As
any English teacher will tell you, rampantly replacing words in an essay
with synonyms will quickly devolve the meaning into drivel.
So now that I've cleared that up, the point I was making in a lot less
words, is that by splitting the list into multiple places, one could
expect less solutions to be in either place, and while the sum of the
parts will probably be equal to the whole, the information would be
dispersed and diluted thus reducing the effectiveness (not efficiency
though I'm sure that would be reduced also) of both locations.
Cheers,
Rob.

Since when is a forum more efficent than this newsgroup, forums tend to
be more images/content and require more maintainance, this newsgroup is
perfect for me and many other people I imagine.

Funny. I _ditched_ forums in order to sign onto this list. It's way too
much of an effort for me to log in to a website every time. Lists work
with quiet efficiency (not efficacy, I suppose) in the background
without needing me to refresh the page every 5 minutes.

Well, let me give you a different example. I don't have a TV at
all, even though I could buy one. Knowing this, would you assume
that I don't like watching it?
No, I wouldn't, as my point is that the lack of something doesn't
imply _any_one_thing_. There are many reasons why something may or
may not exist. Assuming that there is "such distaste for message
boards" is fallacious (as would be my assuming you don't like TV).
The same thing with forum. It's a usual feature, just like website
is. Would you be surprised if PHP had no website?
Yes, I would, particularly as I've been going to it for years.
Finding out that PHP had no website would definitely mess with my
perception of reality. But I disagree with your theory that having a
forum is implied by the technology. PHP is open source, so the fact
that ANYBODY freely supports it in any way is just plain nice.
> Also, you should realize that your question could be rephrased as
"Why
> hasn't someone else done all this extra work (creating and
managing a
> forum) because I would prefer it?"
Are you saying that I'm the only PHP user that might like
discussing things on a forum?
I'm pretty sure I didn't say that but I'll have to check my notes.
I'm saying that you seem to be incredulous over the lack of something
which you think makes sense. But my point is that there can be any
number of reasons why php.net does not have a forum so the lack need
not be "ironic". In fact, that lack may even make sense (at least to
those that run the Web site).
Besides, you're implying that maintaining forum is "extra work",
while maintaining mailing lists isn't. Extra work for extra users
you can live without, eh?
Eh? What? Well, it IS extra work. The mailing list exists and, many
believe, work just fine. Doing more than what is currently being done
is "extra", right? Or "more"? I'm almost positive about that.

Forums and mailinglists like this are about the same. Forums has image
content though while mailing lists just have text content. You get the same
replies as you would with the other so be happy that they at least have this
mailing list and don't just say "Here is PHP and have fun learning it
without our help."
Side question: Larry Ullman: You wouldn't happen to be the same Mr. Ullman
that wrote the PHP&MySQL For Dynamic Web Sites?

It's simply a matter of echoing HTML/ JS statements in PHP. The easiest
way to integrate JS into a PHP page is like this -
<?php
// PHP CODE HERE
print("<script src=""functions.js""/>")
// CONTINUE PHP CODE HERE
?>
All your JS code is to be put into the functions.js file. Watch for the
correct relative path.
You could also use this method -
<?php
// PHP CODE HERE
?>
<script src="functions.js"/>
<?php
// CONTINUE PHP CODE
?>
This is all email-code. There may be some syntax errors, which you'll
have to fix at your end. But the gist remains the same. I'd suggest you
also spend some time reading the HTML output from your PHP code. It's
the best way to learn.

No, obviously that would be dumb! There is no mention of the old
style HTTP_*_VARS arrays anywhere in my code. Smarty does use them by
default, but I've turned that off. I'm also avoiding old-style
session_register, only using current functions like session_start,
session_name, session_destroy and putting everything in $_SESSION.
Someone pointed me at his bug:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34542
I've been trying to come up with a small test case but no luck so far
(so the bug remains with feedback status). xdebug is now working
under 5.1RC5-dev but it doesn't trace quite how I thought it did. I
suspect we might have more bug reports if more people were turning
register_long_arrays off!

So I want to ask:

Try reading the PHP manual, people put in lots of effort for newcomers
to learn the PHP language.
http://php.net/array
To access a single array value:-
$myArray = array('email' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]');
echo $myArray['email'];
Above would display:- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Just when I thought I was getting good. This keeps up, I'm changing back
the php.ini myself.

If your code absolutley needs register_globals and you don't have the
time to rewrite it, do this:
@import_request_variables('GPC', '');
Note that @ is there to suppress error message about non-recommended
usage of the function, ie no prefix.

I have a number that I need to display, and itself plus 2:
<?php
$number=23;
$new_number=$number+2;
print $number." ".$new_number."\n";
?>
//
23 25
//
How can I shorten it to something like this:
<?php
print $number." ".$number+2."\n";
?>
Obviously, the above code doesn't do what I want, but I think that it
describes what I need! Thanks in advance.

Try:
<?php
print $number . ' ' . ($number + 2) . "\n";
?>
I think putting the $number + 2 in brackets will cause PHP to evaluate
that part of the expression before printing it.

Some companies charge for support and still make money from their open

Hi,
Just a quick question. Had a conversation with a person who works for a
non-profit, and she was describing some of her dealings with obtaining
grants for the development of 'open source' apps.Got me to thinking. If a
company sponsored the initial development of an 'open source' kind of app
(the exact licensing would need to be fleshed out) what do yout think would
be the response of people to work on the apps..
I started to wnoder if there would be a pool of talented people who would be
interested in working on projects that are initially funded. The funding
would go to pay the resources, set up the project, do initial grass roots
marketing, etc... The idea would be to focus in on the
projects/technologies/apps that a given business would agree to initially
support/fund.

ps. I'm not talking about a freshmeat.net/sourceforge kind of environment.
The obvious goal of this kind of process would be to turn small
applications/projects into profitable applications. My curiousity is whether
you could then create applications/services that could be built along the
same model as nagios/mysql/etc.. where you have a free/open version, as well
as a fee based application/service.

Hi list,
after upgrading to PHP 4.4.1, I'm having the following problem: Apache is
running in prefork mode. index.php includes func.php, which defines some
functions and connects to MySQL. For a while (1-2 requests) everything runs
ok, except mysql sockets keep stacking up. And then - wham, suddenly, I'm
getting errors:
Perhaps your using persistent connections, Ive had problems like this so
turn off persistent connection in php.ini and it goes away - could be
your prob!
Cannot redeclare mquery() (previously declared in /home/test/func.php:9)
in /home/test/func.php on line 9
If I wait a few seconds, it "works" for a couple of requests again. And then
the error is back.
What on EARTH is happening? My wild guess is, somehow the memory gets
shared, and the previous script is still loaded into a thread when the new
one is called, but how can this be happening?
I would greatly appreciate any advice...

Well, here's all the fun starting. This is relatively long, but please bear
with me.
First of all, yes, I did include_once, require_once, even resorted to "if (!
$inc_done) include_once("func.php")", and setting $inc_done in func.php.
No-go, was still getting the "Cannot redefine mquery()" error message.
Now for the fun.
I've had a different set of scripts employing a different "func.php". Let's
say, for simplicity, /home/test1/index.php included /home/test1/func.php,
and /home/test2/index.php included /home/test2/func.php. However, in both of
those, mquery() is defined. But they do *not* include anything else, and the
paths where set as written above. And, what do you know? If I worked inside
test1 for a while, and went to test2, I'd get:
Cannot redefine mquery() in /home/test2/func.php line 9 (first defined
in /home/test1/func.php on line 9). Voila.
Going through PHP 4.4.1 release notes, I noticed the change stating "fixed a
memory corruption bug in include()". Now, I don't know how FreeBSD ported the
PHP code into it's ports tree, but for me, on FreeBSD 5.1, PHP 4.4.1
*introduced* a memory corruption bug in include.
I downgraded to 4.4.0, and everything works perfectly fine again.
I've written to the freebsd-questions mailing list, but got no sensible
reply so far (only one was "upgrade the ports that use PHP to newer versions,
but my own simple set of scripts exhibits this very strange behaviour, so
it's not a solution).
I'll wait a few days to see if anyone else in FreeBSD experiences the same
behaviour (the port was only introduced 2-3 days ago) before posting a bug
report, else if no one else sees the same thing I did, I'll have to dig
through PHP code to see what was modified in the include()-related code, I
guess, and see what influences the behaviour I'm seeing...

If so thats your problem, you cannot re-define functions

I'm sorry, but what wasn't clear in my post? A *separate* set of scripts
includes a *separate* "func.php", and even not by relative, but by absolute
paths! Example:
/home/test1/index.php:
<?php include ("/home/test1/func.php"); ?>
/home/test2/index.php:
<?php include ("/home/test2/func.php"); ?>
Both func.php are the same, defining a function mquery, which connects to
mysql, and returns.
After working with the index.php in Test1 until I get the "Cannot redefine
error", I go to test2, and I get the error that *that function was defined
in /home/test1/func.php". Test1, while I'm in Test2, and that never ever ever
ever (...) includes *anything* from Test1. So the *Test1* func.php is still
sitting somewhere in memory in the thread test2 is being loaded on - thus,
include_once does not help, as the test2 func.php is NOT included. The weird
thing is, $inc_done isn't defined either for the PHP thread, as when I tried
the piece of code I quoted in my last message, the include_once still went
through.
How can this be happening? I do not know, but since a downgrade to 4.4.0
fixed it all back proper, I am seriously beginning to suspect a problem or
undocumented (widely documented, at least) change in PHP 4.4.1 on FreeBSD
ports.
