Subject: Re: [PHP] how include works?
There was more of a difference earlier on.
On http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.require.php:
Note: Prior to PHP 4.0.2, the following applies: require() will
always attempt to read the target file, even if the line it's on never
executes.
Now it behaves the same way except for the failure method (require is
fatal, include is not).
--
I wasn't talking about the difference between require and include but rather
the difference between require and require_once (or include and
include_once). Why doesn't require just work the same way as require_once,
because I can't see the need for require -ing the same file more than once.
Possibly for someone that doesn't understand the purpose of functions, as
Peter suggested, but programming languages don't generally go out of their
way to cater for people who don't understand basic programming concepts.
OOP.
file "b.php"
<?php
require('a.php');
class b extends a {
}
?>
file "c.php"
<?php
require('a.php');
class c extends a {
}
?>
...
Using both class "c" and "a" within the same request would cause an
error because both are require'ing a.php.
This situation might come up when developing or using any sort of API -
your base methods (load, save, update, delete etc) are in "a.php" and
are overridden in the subclasses.
Using that API, class b might load up a user, class c might save
comments to the database - you need to load the user to check
permissions before you save to the database.

Once upon a time, a long time ago...
require would ONLY read and parse the file one time, so whatever was
in there at the first 'require' would get parsed once, and, inside of
a loop, pasted multipel times.
include would read/parse the file on each iteration of a loop.
That got changed in PHP3 or so, because A) nobody understood it, and
B) nobody really used it much anyway.
When it did get chagned, it was decided that 'require' should be more
forceful than 'include' so one should error, and one should warn.
There are DEFINITELY times where include more than once is good.
Suppose you have the body of a <TR><TD>...</TD></TR> in an include
file, and want to include it many times, with different values.

Are you sure the email is coming through exactly the same? Things like
missing a boundary in a multipart email can break it and be marked as spam.
Anyway - use something like http://phpmailer.sf.net and point it to your
smtp server. If you want to write your own version of it, you'll need to
do all sorts of stuff using fsockopen and worrying about response codes
and so forth.

While it is possible that the IP has been logged as a spammer, it's
more likely that the email headers are tripping you up...
Compare the two sets of email headers and see what you get, and also
look at the information provided by the spam filters about WHY they
think it's spam.

It gives me the correct time, eg:

Yep, checked that, it is.

No, this works, its gives me back
2006-05-31 04:23:56
but I only need the time part not the date part thats
why i am using curtime().

Ah. Yes.
Might be quicker for you to ask on a mysql mailing list :)
I tried a couple of different things looking at the mysql page
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/date-and-time-functions.html)
but couldn't come up with a proper solution.

Hi,
I have a form with about 20 fields in it and have two drop down menus in
which the second one changes depending on the previous one. This is done
with a javascript which reloads the page.
The problem with this is that everything the user has put in so far gets
erased when the page reloads. I am using PHP sessions, but at this point
these fields are not saved yet.
Is there a way to do this using sessions, or some other PHP function. All
the javascript I've looked at reloads the page.
This also screws up my validation routines.
Thanks

I think a better way for you to go(it may be a little bit more
difficult, but it won't have any annoying "flickering" from the
reloading of page) is to use AJAX.
But if you insist on going on a PHP form + Javascript validation ->
submit form ->PHP form + Javascript validation, that can be done as well.
It might help to put up a sniplet of your PHP code. When you say the
page is reloading, I assume that you mean you have a form tag that sends
the POST data back to itself?

Javascript can do this easily, you set up your variable content section
in a div. Then use div.innerHTML = newcontent. Only the content of the
div will change.
Searching for innerHTML should give you a few tutorials and full examples.

You may want to try this forms generation and validation class. It
provides means to do exactly what you want.
It comes with several plug-ins that simplify the implementation of
controls like you want.
There is one plug-in that can link 2 or more select inputs, on which one
switches its group of options when another changes the currently
selected value.
The new group of options can be loaded from a static array or
dynamically connecting to the server via AJAX and executing some task
that gets the new set options depending on the new linked select value.
It comes also with several variants of the plugin that query databases
to retrieve the new sets of options.
Here is a screenshot of a form using the static array version:
http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/view/html/file/9879/name/test_linked_select_page.html
There is also a more generic plug-in form submitting the form using
AJAX. This means that you can submit the form without reloading the
page. In response you can tell the class to make the current browser
page be updated arbitrarily.
There is now even a plug-in to integrate with Google Maps, but that is
anothe story:
The class and all plug-ins are available here. See the dependent classes
too for more third party plug-ins:

I also have a strong suspicion this webmail will be sending this HTML
formatted, so I apologize in advance. Anyway, here it goes!
Greetings All!
I'm trying to build a webpage that will pull out server information using
snmpget and snmpwalkoid, among other things.
Most of the things I poll are fairly static, so in that regards I simply
snmpwalkoid('server', 'community', 'oid') and then create another array that
has my info to spit out like "System Name:" etc etc.
I then use array_combine($my_array, $theOIDArray) and run through them spitting
out the keys & values.
But, with other things, like processors and hard drives, the snmpwalkoid may
return multiple items - and in that case my array_combine won't work since it
will just break.
I'm a total PHP newbie here, and I'm not sure the best way to approach this.
I'd like to use the snmpwalkoid array VALUES with my own KEYS, then spit it out
to the web. Here's what the array from snmpwalkoid() will look like, the exact
OID is the key, the return is the value.
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvCntlrIndex.0.128: 0
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvCntlrIndex.0.129: 0
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvIndex.0.128: 128
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvIndex.0.129: 129
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvModel.0.128: "COMPAQ BD07286224 "
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvModel.0.129: "COMPAQ BD07286224 "
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvFWRev.0.128: "HPB6"
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvFWRev.0.129: "HPB6"
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvBay.0.128: 0
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvBay.0.129: 1
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvStatus.0.128: ok
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvStatus.0.129: ok
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvFactReallocs.0.128: -1
CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvFactReallocs.0.129: -1
Now how can I combine that with:
$arrCpqDaPhyDrvIndex = array( 1 => 'Controller Index:', 'Drive Index:', 'Drive
Model:', 'Firmware Revision:', 'Drive Bay Location:', 'Drive Status:', 'Spare
Sectors:');
So I can get output that will look like this:
Drive A Controller Index: 0
Drive A Drive Index: 128
Drive A Drive Model: "COMPAQ BD07286224"
Drive A Firmware Revision: "HPB6"
Drive A Drive Bay Location: 0
Drive A Drive Status: ok
Drive A Spare Sectors: -1
Drive B Controller Index: 0
Drive B Drive Indes: 129
etc, etc, etc.
I'm assuming I might have to do something with the drive index number.. .But
like I said, I'm very new to this all can't figure out how to combine the 2
pieces of info I need. Once I figure this out, I'll be able to play with the
data more and smooth it to the way I'd like to. Any help would be wonderful -
thanks!

How can I get an integer value for mysql_affected_rows()? I get text:
" n Database Transfer(s)".
I would like to create my own error flag and exit; if the number of

INSERT queries and num_rows just don't go together.
And whatever you've done with mysql_affected_rows() is just some kind
of silly mistake on your part, almost for sure...

Your theory is wrong.
The correct answer is that somebody turned output_buffering "ON" in
php.ini (or .htaccess) so the output is not really sent until the
script finishes (up to 4096 chars).

I think the "memory leak" you are considering might just be that if
you don't realize you are stacking things up, you could run out of RAM
fast while it buffers everything.

I'm not sure the 4096 applies to ob_start() or JUST to the buffer for
php.ini ...
Hopefully it's documented somewhere...

No, but if it's using http://php.net/fsockopen, that can be done
asynchronously...
You'll have to gut and change your servstatus() function to take a
BUNCH of servers to check, and open them all async, and then test them
all...

Hi All,
I'm using Mbuni MMS gateway, which provides me the facility to upload .mms
files.
Now with my little exposure to PHP, to upload files (say from the browser),
I use $_POST, namely:
if($_FILES['userfile']['size'] > 0)
{
$fileName = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
$tmpName = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
...
...
}
However, with Mbuni MMS Gateway (which provides HTTP POST), the above
condition in if loop isn't satisfied. I think $_FILES isn't working. However
the following code works:
<?php
$in='/usr/share/wallpapers/alien-night.jpg';
$out='/tmp/alien.jpg';
if(isset($_POST['userfile'])/* || $_FILES['userfile']['size'] > 0*/ )
{
$f=fopen($out,'a');
echo "HELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO";
copy($in, $out);
}
?>
This implies, $_POST works, and a file has been uploaded. I however, do not
know how to access it
How to access the uploaded file, determine its size and save its contents in
a database?
Thanks in advance
KM

Did you put the enctype="multipart/form-data" into the FORM tag?
What you describe matches not doing that.

That's not $_POST. That's $_FILES.
Show us the real code you're using.

Have you tried simply saving $_POST['userfile'] to a file?

Thanks for your replies.
1. Did you put the enctype="multipart/form-data" into the FORM tag?
Ans: I do not have a form! I'm using a gateway utility to upload files
From documentation of Mbuni MMS gateway:
post-url
Response content is obtained as result of sending a HTTP POST request to the
provided URL. The POST message is *always* encoding (such as that used by a
web browser when an HTML form has the submitted using the
multipart/form-dataenctype=multipart/form-data parameter set). If
http-post-parameters field is given (see below), then the relevant
parameters are sent as part of the request. *X-Mbuni* headers are sent as
well.
http-post-parameters
Used in conjunction with post-url. Parameters are provided in the same way
as would be provided in an HTTP GET request (e.g. *
message=true&myname=test&image=%i*).
2. Have you tried simply saving $_POST['userfile'] to a file?
$save = $_POST['userfile'];
$f=fopen($out,'a');
copy($save, $out);
Nothing is copied. Opened file is empty.
Pls suggest

Show us the first 2 lines of index3.php
Cuz line 1 has something in it to print out data/content.

Probably whitespace outside of <?php ?>

I have pdfs saved as BLOBs I create the links dynamically but only some of
the PDFs display an error message 'error opening this files...this file
cannot be repaired..."
Is there a file size limit in kb for Blobs and what is it?
What size of file can a LONG BLOB accomodate?
If it is not this any ideas? It seems to fix it though!
Thanks,
Ross

Who knows? What database are you using? Each database is different. Have
you checked the databases documentation?
If it is not this any ideas? It seems to fix it though!
So does it fix it or not?

A quick google search tells you that LONGBLOB can contain string with
a maximum length of 4294967295 characters, which translates into
4gb+/-
Maybe a MEDIUMBLOB (16777215 characters) would already do the trick,
no? It supports as much as 16mb +/-

Hi there,
I am trying to parse a plain text which contains variables. The string
looks like this:
P=1
U=test
T=ok
P=2
U=test2
T=anything
How could I create arrays out of this. To be able to access the values
like this:
echo $P[1];
parse_str does not work here and I could not find another function which
does this.
Thank you for any hint,
Merlin

quite less infos you give.
echo $P[2] would output test or what?
$U["test"] or $U[1] = test ??
a hint. Uhm, use regexpressions to split the string and form variables
out of it.
my guess.

OR, you could try :
1st split the text by newline into array.
Then split every element of the resulting array by '=' and
then you have all you need to create the variables, i guess :)
simple example :
$text_arr = explode("\n",$text);
foreach($text AS $val){
$temp_arr=explode("=",$val);
$$temp_arr[0][] = $temp_arr[1]; // not sure if this line is correct...
}
