PHP is not supposed to look for php.ini in PATH.

Thanks for the input everyone. It seems it Apache itself can't do lookups
either (ie: Hostnamelookups On ..doesn't actually do anything..so, going to
hunt down the issues inside Apache...)
funny thing is I've got a test server with the same exact port versions and
almost identical config files, so..I don't know...perl scripts and php from
the CLI work fine..so my actual DNS resolution is working okay..just Apache
is losing it somewhere...if anyone has some thoughts..let me know :)

Hostname lookups has *nothing* to do with this issue. It only affects
apache.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#hostnamelookups
As someone else mentioned, freebsd has issues with this stuff when it's
running inside a chroot'ed environment.
Are you running in a chroot'ed or selinux or anything like that?

Subject: [PHP] Staff log-in
Hi,
I need a little php script. Staff log in by entering username and password
and then the next time they enter their username and password they log
out.
The script has to take down the time they log in and log out. Then I
should
be able to read old log-ins and log-outs.
I unfortunately can't make it myself because I don't have the knowledge,
can
anyone of you do this for me? It's for a small non-profit orginisation.
Thanks in advance,
Brynjar Gudnason.

ah - I was worried you might have been factoring in age-related brain

Er, wouldn't the better solution be to fix http_build_query to not break when
handling fairly typical PHP URLs?

http_build_query() was fixed (it's a core function btw) - and the problem is
the fact
that it now correctly encoded square brackets (as per HTTP specs) , the
urlencoding
makes using the return value of http_build_query() in the name attribute of a
hidden input impossible unless the relevant square brackets are first decoded.

nice! - although I had to test your regexp, I can't figure out
exactly what it's doing but it seems to work exactly like mine...
could you explain your regexp - I'd like to replace my version with
your (if for no other reason than that shorter code is easier to read than
longer code!) BUT until I really understand your regexp I'd feel 100%
comfortable
making the replacement.
kinds regards,
Jochem
ps - sometimes reading regexps is a lot harder than writing them!

Hello,
I'm looking for people that like messing around with PHP and MySql. I've
started a project to help myself learn more about PHP, MySql. The program
basically takes database infomation (username, password, database name and
location) as input and then uses that info to create php scripts to handle the
basic functions of Create, Remove, Update & Display for each table. Basically 1
script per table in the database. Also the program builds a little Application
framework too. The script function both inside the Application and also stand
alone.
Keep in mind I am a beginner @ this stuff and this project is in it's beginning
stages... I'm just looking for feedback..... I think it rocks but I am Biased

Hi,
I am using the function fopen to open a word document, loading the
contents into a variable and then using a substr_count to count the
number of times a certain string is found, this is allowing me to search
through the file and say how many times the word appears, I can even use
str_replace to highlight certain words. However Microsoft word seems to
put a lot of rubbish in the header and footer, I am wondering is it
possible to filter this rubbish out to get the exact document.
I also tried using fopen to open a PDF file, but as PDF is handled
differently it came up completely different with no words at all, just
full of rubbish. Is there anyway I can get this information using a
simple fopen?
I am basically trying to create a search engine which can read within
files similar to google. The only problem I would have after I have done
all this is actually weighting the search results, however I would
probably have to create the results first and then finally go through
the results to try to weight them.
Does anyone else have any experience in this or could help me out with
any of the problems I am having?
Thanks
Kevin

Have you actually tried this? I set up a dummy
sendmail program that logs its input to a file,
and it turned out that PHP's mail() function
converts control characters to white space.
More specifically, it performed the following
conversions (PHP 5.0.2 on Windows 98SE):
To: and Subject:
----------------
\x00 -> Terminates string.
\x01-\x1f -> Replaced by \x20.
\x20-\x7e -> Passed through.
\x7f -> Replaced by \x20.
\x80 -> Passed through.
\x81 -> Replaced by \x20.
\x82-\x8c -> Passed through.
\x8d -> Replaced by \x20.
\x8e -> Passed through.
\x8f-\x90 -> Replaced by \x20.
\x91-\x9c -> Passed through.
\x9d -> Replaced by \x20.
\x9e-\xff -> Passed through.
Body:
-----
\x00 -> Terminates string.
\x01-\xff -> Passed through.
