I think glob('*.html'); would be easier.

I usually use preg_* functions so here's my go:
echo preg_replace('/\.php$/', '.com', $file);
The '$' at the end makes sure it's a .php file and won't cause problems
with files like xyz.php.txt .
(otherwise I'd just use a straight str_replace).

Nothing wrong with being simple, and therefore both fast and easy to
understand by a wider audience. The only downer I can immediately think
of though is that whitespace isn't accommodated, but who really ends a
file name with white space?

Just to be clear, the post above has a typo and should read
'extension=php_mssql.dll'.
I have found that for PHP hosted on a Windows box to talk to SQL
Server 2005 you have to have the latest version of the library
ntwdblib.dll or it won't connect. (The details were in the comments in
the manual page for mssql if you haven't checked this already.) SQL
Server 2000 doesn't usually have a problem. I haven't tried to connect
to SQL Server from a Linux box, though.
Other than that, the only tricks I have found involve making sure you
are using the correct server address syntax if SQL Server is using
something other than the default port (pretty simple, but I've seen it
trip a few folks up) and using SQL Authentication rather than Windows
(trusted) authentication. If you are ultimately looking to connect
from a Linux box I am guessing this is already the case.

Sure, have a look on google for php: time zone class and you should be good to
go!
What code have you written so far to try using the data from the server?

Subject: [PHP] client time zone?
Hello;
I am running a server that is using UTC
and I want to be able to convert to
clients local time in some display presentations.
Is this indicated by $_SERVER["REQUEST_TIME"]?
If not, is there a way to get the requesting host's
time zone so I can offset the servers clock value correctly?
Thank you for info:

Take a look in the Apache reference docs for mod_rewrite (exactly where you look
depends on which version of Apache you are using).
Then search for (a) any .htaccess files in the web-app, and (b) any Apache
config files: this will be Linux-distro-dependent but somewhere like /etc/apache
or /etc/httpd might be the first thing to try...
You are looking for either directory-specific or system-wide Apache RewriteRule
directives, especially those that contain a pattern which matches ".php3"
If you can't find anything like that, then Apache ain't rewriting...

If the line quoted above is exactly as it appears in the PHP script, then it
will definitely *not* be Apache. A require with just a filename like that goes
straight to the file system, with nary even a hint of a thought of involving
Apache. So the admin.php3 file must exist *somewhere* in the file system.
As someone else suggested, I think your best bet is to examine the include_path
setting in php.ini (via a phpinfo() script if necessary).
Cheers!

Hi, Mike,
The include is more like
require "../admin/admin.php3"
I don't know exactly how Apache performs its magic so I wasn't sure that
the request for an include file would even pass through Apache's hands.
In my limited world, an include wouldn't have to involve Apache, just
the file systems.
We did look at the php.ini file in /etc and it was pretty much
innocuous. Looked like a default from when the system was installed.
I'll have a closer look today.
Thanks.
Jim

The admin.php3 seems to be 2 levels above the current dir.
What about
print realpath("../admin/admin.php3")
in the same script?

That's quite a good suggestion.
Just to be clear about the other point, an include or require is purely file
system based, *unless* you give it a full URL beginning with a protocol name
such as http:// or ftp:// (which, as a general rule, is somewhat
disrecommended!).
Cheers!

just put phpinfo into the 'search for' and you will get the REAL data for it.

You said that there was no windows-1252 setting
in Safari, so I am curious to know if it is capable
of mapping the 1252-encoded page to the correct
characters. If you set your browser to detect the
encoding *automatically*, does the two pages display
identically, or are there differences?
According to the mappings at unicode.org, there
are a lot of difference between MACROMAN and CP1252,
for instance, the first character on the page (0x80)
is A-DIARESIS in MACROMAN and EURO SIGN in 1252.
