It sounds like, underneath, rename() is creating a new directory and
then attempting to delete the old one, ignoring the files in the
original directory. In which case, you'll have to do it the long way--
create a new directory, move the files, then delete the old directory.
Oddly enough, I can't find a *nix command which will actually rename a
directory. The man pages for mv, rename and such all refer only to
files, not directories.

mv renames directories fine:
$ mkdir bar
$ touch bar/randomfile
$ mv bar foo
$ ls foo
randomfile

That's because in *nix, everything is a file. Directories, devices, all
have file interfaces.

Nope, nothing wrong with that at all. Just didn't think of it!
Thanks!

Thanks :)
Blah blah blah.
I've used this code for about 6 years now and have yet to find emails that
it didn't work for. If someone has some funky (whacky) RFC extremity, then
so be it. That's their problem. Most people have NORMAL emails that follow
the above.
I faced a professionnal issue because of a lazy programmer (a Delphi
component that was not aware about "Toto man"@example.com). What you
consider normal e'mail is a subset that is not interoperable. And I hate
that.
But you are correct, I have revised it to be a little more forgiving of some
allowed characters...
preg_replace("/([\w\.\-...@[\w\.\-_]+\.\w{2,6})/i",
You can revised your regex to fit to the new kind of email. But it is
smarter to use the right tool (like filter_vars).
Yeah, I know, I feel like some spanish windmill hunter.

I'm not sure it's well known on this list, but one resource I use for

thanks, Devendra, that's pretty much the same as my handler. (though i can't
figure Rich Smith's $sess_save_path global. do you know what is for?)
but what i'm really interested in is people's experience in switching over
to and using this kind of handler: pitfalls, gotchas, etc. or is it really
as easy and simple as all these online articles i've read about it claim?
or is that experience so hard won that people aren't keen to share it?

I'm our case we opt for memcache to store the sessions
Mmc its soo much faster and you will have less net overhead because
the simple protocol
Also the configuration its easier. If you see in the php manual you
only need to touch two lines in the php.ini

I think if you look at the comments on that article, he's agreed that's an
error and shouldn't be there.

I moved from a single server to a load-balanced setup with 2 back-end servers.
I switched to a database-based session handler very similar to the one under
discussion (just tailored to my house style, really) and it just worked. Been
running happily in production for about 6 months now.
Cheers!

Ben,
My solution was to add a table to my database, and add an insert job id
into the table after the line that is causing the problem. When I submit
the script I use setTimeout to run an AJAX query of the table 5 seconds
later. If the line has failed the job id will not be in the table and I
alert the user. It works - and some day I hope to fix the software
problem and make this unnecessary.
Thanks,
Jim

It's a web app that draws maps in a browser. Sometime it will
generate a seg fault. The command should not take long, so if
there is some script construct that will throw an exception after
a few seconds if the command has not completed I could signal the
user that the map will not draw and to reload the page.
There's a pecl extension called Libevent that can apparently trigger
an action to occur after a certain amount of time has elapsed:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.libevent.php
I've not used it and have no idea how mature or reliable it is. I'm
also wondering whether any solution will work that relies on the same
script that's about to trigger a segfault.
I think I'd be inclined to build an XHR-based monitor to run in the
user's browser. Even simpler would be to start the map-building
process asynchronously with XHR and then just alert the user, or
automatically refresh the browser, if a certain amount of time elapses
before you get a response from the map-building script. But I don't
know how much you'd have to alter your existing client-side code to
use the latter method.
Either way it's creeping away from PHP so maybe I should leave it at that.

Hiya,
I'm writing an app that let's my client upload images, the image html
code is added to an XML file.
Take a look at the <image> element below:
<item Code="e1022">
<code>e1022</code>
<image><![CDATA[<img src="uploads/image2.jpg" alt="Homepage
Image" width="124" height="70" />]]></image>
<name>Blue Ski Trousers</name>
<price>8.99</price>
</item>
Now, whenever PHP writes this to the XML files, it turns the < and >
into < and > . which means it does not display on the webpage.
How can I prevent this from happening ?
Many thanks,
Matt
