They have the same staff trainer as Chapters / Indigo has in Canada.
Chapters also threw out 1/4 of the books and replaced them with "seasonal
items" - candles, scents, notepaper - you know, that ssort of stuff.

What am I doing wrong...
In my php.ini I have this for my web pages (and I want it):
output_handler = ob_gzhandler
But this causes my command line script to not show output until the very
end.
I thought I could disable it at the top of a script, but it's not working!?!
#!/usr/bin/php -q
<?php
ini_set('output_handler', 'mb_output_handler');
system('php -i | grep output_handler');
?>
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ./myscript.php
output_handler => ob_gzhandler => ob_gzhandler
zlib.output_handler => no value => no value
If I comment out the line in the php.ini file, then things work great (and
what exactly is the output_handler being used if I don't specify one? It
just says
output_handler => no value => no value
I tried to put this in my script too but it doesn't make any difference:
ini_set('output_handler', '');
or
ini_set('output_handler', null);
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ./myscript.php
output_handler => ob_gzhandler => ob_gzhandler

You can't test it like that. When you use system('php') you invoke a new
instance of php that has the default values. You are apparently already
familiar with ini_set() so why not use ini_get() to test if your code works?

When I create a socket/stream that connects to a news sever and try to
recv data from the socket when there is nothing there (Like if the
server sends one line and I call recv twice) the socket freezes. I
assume this is because using socket_create or fsockopen creates a
blocking TCP/Stream socket by default. When I call socket_set_nonblock()
and the socket_connect I get "A non-blocking operation could not be
completed immediately". Could someone show me exactly how to create a
non-blocking TCP/Stream socket? Thanks in advance.

I may be wrong but I think you need to set the socket non-blocking after
the connect. You cannot do a non-blocking connect.

Then the socket recv doesnt work. Gives me "Unable read from socket".
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
socket_connect($socket,"news.csh.rit.edu",119);
socket_set_nonblock($socket);
socket_recv($socket,$buf,1024,0);
echo $buf;

I would actually suggest going a bit higher level and using
stream_socket_client() instead. Using a stream is much more flexible.
See the manual page for the function for some examples.

I've completely switched.
The support for datetime and also timestamp in mysql is amazing...
Writing usable applications witch depend on date functions and also
applications witch just shows the time is much easier, instead of reading
throught all the freakin' manuals to do small operations and writing line
upon line with deprecated??? code, no not exactly , but you catch my drift.

PHP List,
I had a file upload script which was working fine. Then, because of
other needs, I changed my local Apache settings so that my local web
site directory structure behaved the same as they do on my web hosting
service.
What I mean by that is that before, I would access my local web sites by
going to their directories within the localhost (/var/www) directory:
localhost/web_sites/web_site_one/index.php
Now I just go to:
web_site_one/
If i create a link that says <a href="/">link</a>, it goes to the root
of the web site, where the index.php is.
Within that root directory, I have a directory called "image", where I'm
trying to put my uploaded image files.
The destination file location should then be "/image/", shouldn't it?
My code looks like this:
$fileLocation = "/image/" . $_POST['name'];
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $fileLocation))
{
chmod ($fileLocation, 0777);
}
$_POST['name'] is a name for the file that the user has entered.
But this now gives me an error that it can't open a stream to the
destination.
I also checked to make sure that the "image" directory has fully open
permissions, and it's currently set to "drwxrwxrwx", or "0777".
Am I missing some fundamental issue with directory structures on an
Apache server?

Shouldn't you have something closer to:
<?php
$fileLocation = '/var/www/web_site_one/image/'.$_POST['name'];
?>
Because your trying to access a filesystem path and not a web path. More
generically if you want:
<?php
$myPath = ereg_replace( '/.*$', '', __FILE__ );
$fileLocation = $myPath.'/image/'.$_POST['name'];
?>
That still presumes a script in the site's root directory.
Cheers,
Rob.

Hi,
Yes, I have and thought I was seeking the assistance of knowledgeable
colleagues . The solution researched does not offer the desired
features. I was not asking for code, but perhaps some solutions/
applications to explore.

PS
I don't appreciate being scolded.
