I have created forms with PHP where the information in the fields is
sent via sendmail to an email, but is there a way to have the
information extracted and a pdf form created when the user hits the
submit button?

Yep, probably. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php

Will there be a 4.4.6 release soon?
A lot of users run OsCommerce and i  don't like to run  a unpatched php

Thanks

I've see that before. Update the PHP (and Apache while you are at it).
Also disable the server from showing the Apache and PHP versions. Why
are they broadcasting to the world that they are easy prey to remote
exploits? Also check if the server has been compromised.

that php version)

Hey - -

I must be missing something, but in a URL such as:

  diddly.com?id=fred&total=goof

$_SERVER['PHP-SELF'] gives me the diddley.com part.

I want to capture the whole URL. The documentation makes it seem like $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] is supposed to do that, but I get an "Undefined Index" error.

Do I have to enable this somehow? I realize that I could recreate the rest of the URL from $_GET's, but I'd rather not if I don't have to.

do a var_dump($_SERVER); or phpinfo(); to see what you do have available.

Ken:

Print out these three and you'll see your problem.

$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']

First of forgoing the http:// missing, this still isn't a qualified URL
you are missing the / after the .com.

echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
and see what it returns

if for some odd reason that doesn't work try

echo $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

and if you are possibly making a typo, try

var_dump($_SERVER);


$_SERVER['PHP-SELF'] gives me the diddley.com part.
this should be $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']  underscore, not a hyphen

I want to capture the whole URL. The documentation makes it seem like $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] is supposed to do that, but I get an "Undefined Index" error.

show us an example of the script that generates the error

source and output of given source please


Do I have to enable this somehow? I realize that I could recreate the rest of the URL from $_GET's, but I'd rather not if I don't have to.
I have never heard of this not being disabled.

Looks like you either typed this pretty fast or maybe you had a few typo's. Review your code and check that you are using underscores and not hyphens.

Hello,
       URL consist of two part HOST and URI respectivetely. HOST part likes 
example www.domain.com . URI part likes main.php?id=5 and so on. You can get 
the HOST part of URL with $HTTP_HOST and URI part of URL with 
$REQUEST_URI.:)

I downloaded this full package...
http://us2.php.net/get/php_manual_chm.zip/from/a/mirror
And replaced the core .chm file from here:
http://us2.php.net/get/php_manual_en.chm/from/a/mirror

No matter what setting I select for the skin in "php_manual_prefs.exe", it
doesn't seem to change when I click on "php_manual_en.chm". Am I doing
something wrong?

I am storing a lot of text into my mssql database.
Are there any special characters I should watch out for?
I think so far I've got ' covered.

Also, when I retrieved the string later on...
The ' is printed out with a \ in the front. How do I get rid of the \?
When I try to get a really long string and print it out on a website, it
tends to stop in the middle of the string.
Is this some sort of a limitation that I can change?

Thank you!

Skip the guesswork and use an appropriate quoting mechanism for your
database -- that said I'm not aware of an mssql specific quoting
mechanism (and I don't care to find out :) -- so maybe just use
addSlashes().

Turn off magic quotes.

Sounds like your storing the data into a table column that is too short
for the data and so it gets truncated when stored. Then when you
retrieve it you get the truncated text. Increase the column width.

Cheers,
Rob.

Hello,
       Firstly, you should create a configuration file for your phpMyAdmin 
administration web site. If you extract phpMyAdmin in your htdocs folder, 
you will create easily configuration file to enter the phpMyAdmin web site 
on your localhost. (for example http://localhost/phpmyadmin/)  After this 
step, you can choose http in authentication and choose localhost in host:)

Hello,
        Firstly, you should download latest GD library and Jpeg library and 
then you should compile your GD with jpeg enabled option and  then compile 
jpeg. After this step, you can compile Apache and PHP. In PHP installation, 
you should use such as --with-gd=/usr/local option for gd library and such 
as --with-jpeg-dir option for jpeg library. If you use --with-gd option 
without not write any folder name , PHP will use default GD folder ( 
extension directory).

Dear list,

strstr returns a string (in case the needle is found), 
but a boolean if there is no needle in the haystack. 

I am trying to make a readable evaluation of some tests, but this fails 
to work as supposed because of
- undefined results when "OR"ing strings with possible string (?)
- use of bitwise OR operator ("|") where I am uncertain if I can 
  write anything like $a ||= $b;

Please read this snippet and tell me your ideas ;)
Thanks
Ralf

    $oLen = strlen ($commentary);
    $isSpam = ! strstr($_POST['Name']," ");
    $isSpam |=  strlen (str_replace("http://","",$commentary)) < $oLen;
    $isSpam |=  strstr($_POST['Name'],"@");
    $isSpam |=  stristr($_POST['Name'],"Casino");

//My next trial will be to add "is_string( ...)"
