Sometimes speed improvements require removing things. If you end up
backwards supporting everything you end up with a big monster engine

Well if it's a "big" website then why use a hoster that changes the
php.ini without much, if any, thought?
The technical abilities and awareness is often inversely proportional to
the size of the hoster.

The key thing in tech support, is to get to the problem and fix it. Don't let
the conversation get away from the reason they called. As long as you can fix
the problem, assuming their is a problem, the customer will be happy. But all
the while not sounding harsh or impatient to the customer.
But, on the flip side, you don't want to be just a knowledge base that people
could login to on your website. Isn't that they reason you have live support?

Better ask IBM instead - they've done it for much longer and with much

Definitely. I've been the server-admin behind this sort of stuff
(actually php3 -> php4 :P) and it's very hard to do even on your own
servers. Clients get other developers to write their software so you
have no idea what it does etc, you can't support it, you certainly don't
want to break it - so as much as possible you leave the server alone (of
course you upgrade for security issues, that's a given).
In time you get a new server and slowly migrate people to that, kill off
the old server and rinse-repeat.

Depending on the size of the site, you might want to consider a PHP
framework to start with. There's usually no point in reinventing the
wheel. Someone mentioned CakePHP which utilizes MVC. I'm looking into
porting my stuff to the Zend Framework which makes MVC optional, but has
a lot of functionality make available.

I too like CakePHP. I have coded in PHP for quite a while and
understand OOP and OOP in PHP, however I don't really have any
experience building sites or apps from scratch using OOP/MVC.
Cake or a framework makes it much quicker and easier. For those that
need total freedom to do things the way they want but need some
pre-built functionality to make it quicker, Zend seems to be the choice.
I consider Zend to be more of a class library like PEAR only more
consistant. For me, I had no habits/best practices or preferred way
when I started with OOP/MVC so Cake was great. It has a certain
structure and uses certain conventions and code generation which makes
it very quick and easy. The main drawback is the docs.

Hi,

I have build many small sites for myself(site to organise class
assembly which is like yearly convention..it has user administration
etc) but they all are anything else than OOP. But now, I need to help
with creating one bigger site which should be OOP. That site should
include user management(each user has it's own profile), each user can
post job and other adds in different categories. (there will be many
categories for example 'work,cars,training,apartments'.)
And users profile should show ads posted by himself.
Logic itself is simple:
1) unregistered user:
a) I go to site, I see categories (work offers, apartment offers,
training offers, etc)
b) I click on category I'm interested in
c) I see ad that I'm interested in
d) I click on it
c) I see detailed information about it(which company posted it etc)
d) at bottom page I see form where I can contact with ad author
2) registered user
a) I go to site
b) I log in, my profile page opens
c) there I can see ads posted by me..also I can see how many times
ad is viewed etc
d) i click on link 'Post new ad'
e) there i choose category and probably Ajax helps to load
specific fields(for example if I choose 'Cars' as category, then
fields like 'year,transmission,color, etc' will appear.
That is short summary what that site should do. It seems quite big for
me so I'd be happy to hear any guidelines from people who have built
big sites.
Creating forms, posting data, user login etc, these things are not
problem... problem is: how to build the whole thing aimed to OOP and
use with Smarty to keep things organized.
I'm not sure but I have idea about what things I should do first:
1) think and write down any function that needs to be done(for example
different validations, functions for showing/posting form etc)
2) plan and create database?
3) create database class which handles database connection
But what next? Or am I starting all wrong?
Big thanks in advance,

There's also .NET http://www.microsoft.com. It's also a framework but
for VB/C# I think. In my opinion it's stronger than cake and there are

I was profiling some code on my local dev box, and in Windows, the
biggest time sink for the home page is...
a call to date("Y/m/d H:i:s")?!
917 ms???
Here is what I get in a cygwin shell:
php -r '$c = 100; $s = microtime(true); for($i = 0; $i < $c; $i++){ $d
= date("Y/m/d H:i:s"); } echo (microtime(true) - $s)/$c, "\n"; '
1.0072922205925
Same results from a DOS prompt, though I have to actually create a
file as -r didn't seem to work...
Feel free to change $c to 10 to get a faster answer...
Can 'date' really take almost a full second to execute in Doze?...
That seems pretty whack...

I suppose to be complete, I should point out that in Linux a call to
date finishes in 1.2271404266357E-5 seconds on average.
For those unfamiliar with scientific notation, that would be:
0.000012271404266357 seconds, or rougly 1/10,000th of the time Doze
takes.

Interesting. Just for comparison, I ran it directly with the binaries
(disabling the debugger) for PHP 4.4.4 and 5.2.0 on my machine.
4.4.4 - in the order of 4.5E-6 - 5.0E-6
5.2.0 - right around 1.0E-4

Dear Srs,
We are having some "zend_mm_heap corrupted" errors followed by a
"Segmentation fault (11)" in our Apache2 + PHP 5.2.6 servers. There are few
information about this "bug" in internet:
* #40479 -> http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=40479
* #43295 -> http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43295
I have applied all proposed patches, tested with PHP 5.2.5 and 5.2.6.. and
I still have the error :-/
Anyone has more info about this, or how to solve/prevent?
I'm also looking for a method to get more info about this crash: what
virtualhost + PHP scripts generate it and the timestamp, for example. What
can I do to get more info? Searching in the source code, I see that this
message only is printed by the zend_mm_panic() function in
"Zend/zend_alloc.c" file, anyideas to hack this function to get more info?
static void zend_mm_panic(const char *message)
{
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", message);
#if ZEND_DEBUG && defined(HAVE_KILL) && defined(HAVE_GETPID)
kill(getpid(), SIGSEGV);
#endif
exit(1);
}
Is there any macro o similar to get the URL, virtualhost or PHP
script/path? Thanks!!
Regards,

Well, it's not looking for libldap-2.4.so.2, it wants libldap-2.3.so.0.
So first try creating a link of libldap-2.3.so.0 to libldap-2.4.so.2.

Hello,
I'm using some php-classes which worked fine with php-5.0.4. Now I tried
to upgrade to php-5.2.6, but the classes give a lot of errors. If I set
error_reporting(E_ALL);
I see messages like
Notice: Undefined property: FastTemplate::$main in
/whereever/inc.template.php on line 293
Notice: Undefined property: current_session::$cust_id in
/whereever/inc.init.php on line 117
In inc.template.php there are a lot of calls like $this->$key. In
inc.init.php there are calls like $session->cust_id.
What has changed in php-5.2.x so that these calls don't work any more?
What is the new, required form to use objects in a similar manner
(unfortunately I have no ressources to code these classes from scratch)?
Thanks.
Kind regards

to fix these errors, you would need to modify the code so it does something
like this.
where it calls $this->$key you need to check and make sure that $key exists
before you trying call for it.
So something like this would work.
if ( isset( $this->$key ) ) {
$this->$key;
} else {
$this->$key = null;
}
You didn't show any context in which you are using the above code. So I don't
know what will actually work in your situation. Show a little more code that
includes the method in which $this->$key is called.
You will want to look at using the Overloading feature of PHP5. Check out
this page for overloading examples
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.overloading.php
Take note of the __get() and __set() methods. The __get method checks to see
if the key exists before it tries working with it.

You might want to check the scope of the properties. If you want to
access them outside of the class, make sure they are declared public.

We recently rebuilt a webserver and upgraded it to opensuse 10.3.

Did you check what Jim suggested, as well, about short_open_tags?
If your scripts use PHP tags like this:
<?
.... instead of like this:
<?php
.... that's most likely the issue. You can either modify all of
the PHP scripts to use the latter version of tag opening, or you can
modify your php.ini file to set short_open_tags to On (and then
restart Apache for the changes to take effect).

I have traditionally used double quotes going back to my PASCAL days.
I see many PHP examples using single quotes, and I began to adopt that
convention.
Even updating existing code.
And I broke some stuff that was doing variable expansion. So I am back
to using double quotes.
But I wonder, is there any reason to use single quotes?

extremely minor performance gains, afaik.
probably moreso when doing $foo["bar"] and $foo['bar']
but i believe it's negligible $foo = 'bar' and $foo = "bar"
sara golemon did some performance tests with actual opcode results here:

Single quotes means literal, whereas double quotes means translated.
For example:
<?php
// This returns exactly the same data:
$foo_a = "bar";
$foo_b = 'bar';
echo $foo_a; // bar
echo $foo_b; // bar
// This returns different data:
$foo = "bar"; // Single quotes can be used here just the same.
echo "The answer is $foo"; // The answer is bar
echo 'The answer is $foo'; // The answer is $foo
/* And if you want to use special
characters like newlines, you
MUST use double quotes. */
echo "This echoes a newline.\n"; // This echoes a newline. [newline]
echo 'This echoes a literal \n'; // This echoes a literal \n
?>
Basically, double quotes evaluate certain things and return the
evaluation, while single quotes return EXACTLY what's typed between
them.

Moin,
kann mir mal wer auf die Sprünge helfen, ich bekomme es gerade nicht
geregelt ein Image "on-the-fly" von einem Remote-Host per fsockopen auf
meinen Server zu ziehen.
Irgendwo hab ich da voll die Blockade ;)
Mein "nichtfunktionierender" Versuch:
...
...
$out = "GET ".<URL_REMOTE_IMAGE>." HTTP/1.0\r\nHost:
".$this->host."\r\nUser-Agent: GetWiki for WordPress\r\n\r\n";
$fp = fsockopen($this->host, $this->port, $errno, $errstr, 30);
$File = fopen(<PFAD_ZUM_ASPEICHERN>,"wb");
fwrite( $File, $out );
fclose($File);
fclose($fp);
...
...
THX und Grüße

In handling an HTTP POST request I came across some PHP code, which I
need to modify for my own purposes, which has code like this:
if ( ! (isset($_GET['xxxxx']) && $_GET['xxxxx'] == 20) )
{
// Do something by returning an error
}
Can this ever be correct when the form looks like:
<form ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="" METHOD="POST">
<input NAME="SomeFile" TYPE="file">
<input VALUE="submit" TYPE="submit"></form>
?
Is the $_GET possibly being used to check for an 'xxxxx' parameter being
passed in the query part of the URL ?
I am fairly new to PHP so I am trying to understand how $_GET differs
from $_POST. Thanks !

Yes this can be correct. Since the above action is set to blank, the
form will submit to the same page as that on which is is presented. As
such, if any GET parameters were set in the URL, they will be
re-presented upon submission along with any POSTed data.
Cheers,
Rob.
