You could write a script to parse the email and do the update. It
would come in on 'stdin'.

See http://www.php.net/readline or http://www.php.net/fopen (search
for 'php://stdin').

Alternatively, you could write a script to connect to a mailbox and do
something, see http://www.php.net/imap .

Depends on what you are trying to do really :)

Essentially how I do it for customers that want to update content on their website and how I add messages from a few mailing lists (Klarinet, Doublereed, Clair) I run into a database so they can be browsed and later indexed by swish-e.

I use qmail & add aliases; "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" executes backup "page" and parse email/update "page", "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" restores to the previous page. Similar thing for the lists - sanitize "From:" address, insert into database with From, Date, Subject, Body.

Try using the link type yourpage.php?status=1 and on your home page put this check in:

if(isset($_GET['status']))
        {
        if(intval($_GET['status']) == 1)
        {
                // Your Query
                }
        }


Should do it =)

Hi there guys!

Where is a good startpoint for learning XML Reader on a very, very basic level? (I appreciate links)
Is RSS a technique for retrieving XML? I can't clue the pieces together...

Hi all,

I need to synchronize two postgresql servers, but synchronization is one-directional (ie, data from one computer needs to be copied to another). Basically, I want the target computer to drop the schema "public" and then re-create it from my dump made on the source machine. Is there an easy way to do it from PHP, perhaps using some postgre utility via system() call ?

Boban.

Hi,

I have some images in a database -- I mean, the actual data. There are no
files.

I want to read Exif data for these images, but the read_exif_data() function
wants a file. I suppose I could write the images to temp files, but that's
a bit wasteful. And where would I write them? Is there a folder I can count
on being allowed to write to?

Thanks,
Niels

Answering myself: I solved this with tempnam(). I'm not completely sure
about the portability, and of course it's a waste to write a file at all.
And it could pose a security problem as well. Ho hum.
