Hi!
I'm using Apache 1.3.14 on WIN NT, and can't send mail to more than one
recipient using the PHP-mail command.
I've checked php.ini, and everything seems to be fine...
This is an example that won't work (but should have worked..?)
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]","subject","content");
This one however turns out fine:
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]","subject","content");
I have also tried to "manipulate" the header with "cc:", but no copy
arrives, only the one in the "to:" field.
Any suggestions?

Hi all
I'm busy working on a contract .. and we need to do some web based stuff .. but the
client is intent on using jsp and not PHP.
Is there somewhere where I can get good comparists between the two pro and cons etc
etc ..
I would much rather use PHP then JSP for the development
Thanks
Henti Smith
Greetings Henti,
While I personally prefer working I PHP after having just finished leading a
team of developers on a large JSP project, I would advise you to use the
technologies that your client is most comfortable with. Especially if they
understand that it will cost more and are willing to pay the extra.
It is my experience that while JSP is more powerful, you pay for that power
in development time. Since the Java API is so broad, you sometimes have to
hunt around for a while to find the right commands to do the job. PHP will
do 75% of the job, do it fast enough to please most clients and developers
can usually do it quicker in PHP.
Does your client have overriding technical concerns about PHP?
Do they have specific reasons why they are insisting on Java? (technical or
otherwise?)
I worked a job once where we had to deploy Solaris on Sun HW just because it
was in the medical industry and the client did not feel that Linux would be
accepted. It did not matter that it would eventually cost the client over 1
million on HW just to do the job. (We could have distributed a lot of low
cost Linux boxes, done the same job for about 1/3 of that)
Bottom line is some people just don' get it. If you want the contract then I
would go JSP. If you don't want' it/need it, walk away.

Some time ago I did the comparison of JSP to PHP and

Now I'm just learning CodeCharge generator and so far
it seems really helpful. I even started redoing one

gah:
"Also, any organization doing clustering or failover with PHP is in largely
uncharted waters. "
what _bull_!
what does loadbalancing and clustering have to do with any scripting
language? this guy is obviously one of those dilettantes that things CFML is
the holy grail :P
anyway, that article is wrong, _except_ the part about JSP:
-slow
-extremely time consuming
-friggin annoying :)
I've worked on a couple of projects with JSP, and decided to use PHP to
build binarycloud. 'nuff said :)

ok, that's ONCE today.. =)
hello,
i need to debug php. usually i do this by using my own-written
debugger-class where i can turn off all output with a simple change of the
"on" variable.
well nevertheless now i need to trace the status and value of a variable
during runtime. this is impossible with this class. so i tried to use the
php debugger (php.ini: debugger.enabled = True).
this leeds to some problems:
- what is a good tcp-listener (i tried tcpdump, but this gives to much
output)
- the debugger doesn't work: the command debugger_on("localhost"); leads to
the error-message shown below:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: debugger_on() in index.php on line
2
... and the manual says, that the debugger is still under development.
does anyone know, how to debug php-scripts?
thanx for your help,
mOrP
Hi all,
I think this is a repeated question but I need to get the best out of
it.
I am looking for an open source Ad management system, like PHPAds but
includes advanced targeting capabilities and advanced features like setting
a frequency cap on the number of impressions each visitors views for each
Ad, entering image series, allowing rich media ads, and allowing to host
many sites and many advertisers while only supplying a simple tag to the
sites to host the ads, in brief something like DART of doubleclick or
Adforce, of course I will not find all their feature for free, but anything
even near them out there ?
Thanks
Ahmed
OK, this will be laughably easy for you guys.
I want to write a function (until now, I have been heavily repeating code,
but it's time to trim everything down.)
The function basically needs to check that username and password have been
entered, and then check them against mysql data. All I am unsure of is the
format for the function... is it like this:
function CUP (
if ((!$alias) || (!$password)) {
header("Location: login.php");
exit;
}
);
And reference it later with CUP(); ? Don't worry about the MySQL side of
things, I just need to know how to lay out the function. Oh and if I can
put anything I want in the function.
Also, if I wanted to perform a search of a column in a mysql table for
"places", would the Syntax be something like this:
$sql = " SELECT * FROM table_name
WHERE place = LIKE \"$searched_word\" ";
?
Thanks in Advance,
James.
James,

usually a function has the following structure:
function <name> ( <arguments> ) { <code> }
of course you can put any whitspace inside:
function <name> ( <arguments> )
{
<code>
}
which makes it easy to read.
You can put anything you want inside a function, but you must know, that you
cannot directly access a variable, that is defined outside the function.
$name = "mOrP";
function print_name()
{
echo $name;
}
print_name();
will not work.
Then you must 'get' the global variables (like $name):
$name = "mOrP";
function print_name()
{
global $name;
echo $name;
}
print_name();
But it's better to work with the function arguments:
$name = "mOrP"
function print_name($name_arg)
{
echo $name_arg;
}
print_name($name);
notice, that there is no ";" behind the { ... } and the ( ... ) block in the
definition of the function.
Hope it helps,
mOrP.

Ah, I see, so would something like this work:
$alias = "James";
$password = "MyPassword";
function check_alias_password($alias_arg, $password_arg)
{
if ((!$alias_arg) || (!$password_arg)) {
header("Location: login.php");
exit;
}
}
check_alias_password($alias, $password);
or
function check_alias_password()
global $alias, $password;
{
if ((!$alias) || (!$password)) {
header("Location: login.php");
exit;
}
}
check_alias_password();
work? Or would the last example need to be globals (variables) instead of
global?
> Hope it helps,
It does, and your help is greatly appreciated ;)
James.

better:
global $alias;
global $password;

Yes, this will work - with the correction I've made, 'cause I'm not sure, if
you can assign two variables to 'global'...
But you can see, that it is not good to use the 'global' keyword, because
you must know the name of the variable, you use.
Look:
$name_1 = "Jan";
$name_2 = "Fritz";
function print_name($name_arg)
{
echo $name_arg;
}
print_name($name_1);
print_name($name_2);
You see, how flexible it is...

Hello,
I would like to create a dynamic mulitple-choise - Form, in which the
filenames, included in a subdirectory (e.g. imgstand) are listed as the
Option-vale "value" and the modification-date of the file is shown in
the HTML-page as date for selection of the user.
If a user choise one or more values form the form and press the
"Submit-Button", the script "show.phtml" should show the selected
pictures. This runs very well at this time.
The only problem is, that my following script only shows one date (IMO:
of the first value (.)), and not create the date of each file.
My Developing-System is Winnt/Apache/PHP3x but the www.server is
linux/PHP4.x of course !
The error is on both systems the same.
Who can help ?
Thank`s
Here is my phtml-Page and the included script:
----------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>sachstandseite</title>
</head>
<body>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"
width="100%">
<tr>
<td>Aktuelle Meldungen</td>
<td>Bilder von früher</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td>
<FORM name="pictures" method=POST action="show.phtml">
<?
$handle=opendir('imgstand'); // Name of the subdirectory, where the
files are
while ($dvzinhalt=readdir($handle))
{
$datei[]= "$dvzinhalt";
}
?>
<select name='selection[]' multiple size=<?printf(count($datei))
// for multipleselection-counter
?>>
<?
for ($i=0; $i<count($datei); $i++)
{
// "value" should be the filename for the array selection[] to
show.phtml
echo "<OPTION value=$datei[$i]>";
// get unix-timestamp form each file in subdirectory
$unixdatum=getlastmod($datei[$i]);
// change date for normal people
$datum=date("j. F Y", $unixdatum);
echo "$datum";
}
?>
</select><input type='submit' name='OK'></td>
</FORM>
</tr></table>
</body>
</html>

Read again through the getlastmod() docs. That function returns the
modification time of the *currently executed PHP script*.
Use filemtime() instead and it will work

Hi.
I'm trying to compile PHP with jpeg-support, but it doesn't seem to work.
my configure-line looks like this: "./configure
--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-ldap --with-mysql --with-gd
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png --with-zlib --with-ttf" and when I run it I
get:
checking for libjpeg (needed by gd-1.8+)... yes
checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg... yes
checking for gdImageCreateFromJpeg in -lgd... no
imagePng() and imagettftext() is working, so PNG and Freetype is compiled
in. imageJpeg(), how ever, does NOT work.
Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?
/Joakim
Your GD library probably wasn't compiled with jpeg support.

When I try to use gdImageJpeg() in a C program I get no errors. Is there a
way of telling wheter GD has jpeg support or not?
/Joakim
nm -o libgd.a | grep -i jpeg
Triple-check that you don't have multiple versions of libgd.a on your
system.

I recently came across this problem and I am sure that there is a quick
fix for it. I need a solution to the quotes problem when sending
queries. I use single quotes to construct my SQL queries. This worked
fine since the data entered into the DB was all in spanish.
However, yesterday I was typing in an English name that had a single
quote (say, like O'reilly) and the SQL querie was all wrong.
What is the solution to this? Thanks in advance.

Look into functions stripslashes() and addslashes() as well as the setting
magic_quotes_gpc :
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.addslashes.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.magic-quotes-gpc
But quite simple, addslashes($foo); will addslashes before the quotes
within $foo which will put it into the database nicely. If you have
magic_quotes_gpc on then this should be automatic (see manual for when).

You need to escape the special characters (' becomes '' or \' depending on
database flavor). PHP's built-in addslashes() function does this nicely. If
your database complains about something addslashes() doesn't catch, there may
also be a db-specific function like mysql_escape_string() which ensures that
the string is safe to use in a query.
Hi Nicklas,
sorry, I do not have an answer to your question, but I was wondering if you
could give me a short hint on how to trigger the execution of a PHP-Script
if a mail arrives for a non-existing _mailbox_ (instead of the domain-thing
in your question).
Thank you very much in advance!

Like I said, we use our own. It is home grown, but not opensource --

unfortunately not because it is not opensource. I did want to make it
clear that sessions is a gereric word. Thus, when it is said, it
shouldn't be mis-understood as to be PHP Sessions, which obviously is
not a generic word.

what?
you use an utterly completely stateless model?
craziness!
so you set cookies, and store the sig in the db?
agh! :)
I'm using this box from "coyote systems" called, wait for it:
"THE EQUALIZER"
which is a really obnoxious name, but it sticks clients with a particular
server intelligently, so we can be ever-so-slightly-lazy about that.
do you _like_ that system? (that isn't a challenge, it's real interest)

Hi all,
anyone know something more about the future Zend IDE? e.g price, etc ..
many thanks in advance
max
Not too similar to the caching issue of template output -
I maybe missing something, but at least in our case, *every* page
made with templates has custom info re: the client (name, etc) which
can't, imo, be cached, unless we started caching multiple bits of the templates
then assembling them - potentially lots more disk access than we'd want.
We *do* cache query results for queries that we know will have
similar results for a long time ('customers not on credit hold' for example -
for one client in particular the results of this query would only change daily, as
they only updated 'credit hold' info daily, so we cache this for a few hours, saving
db hits).

would like to add a "thank you" pop up window after submitting an order. So
after entering there billing info and hitting the submit button the form is
directed to a summary page that summarizes the sale. I would also like a pop

I'm generating a page of HTML by reading an entire page of HTML source into
a variable, and then doing various functions and str_replace on the
variable.
However when I finialy write this out to a file the variable containing the
HTML source is truncated, at about 5800-ish bytes.
Is there a limit of the amount of data a variable can store? Or is there a
better way to manipulate the text in file?
Thanks

Greetings,
I have a php script that generates a random image. All
images are kept in a mysql table. It works fine when
viewed by IE, but Netscape, and Lynx, always show the
same image. The database information, however, is
changed as it should be (correctly incrementing the
times seen column for the image), and on refresh all
information goes as it should, except for randomly
selecting an image.
This may be an apache caching problem, but I was
wondering if anyone has run into this working with php
in general, and what solutions I need to explore.
Thanks much,
Joel Dossey

Can anyone tell me what I would use to query a MySQL database in a search?
If the search field, was for example, a variable like "town", would the
results page use something like this? :
$sql = " SELECT * FROM table_name
WHERE towns = \"$town\" ";
I remember seeing someone post something like this:
$sql = " SELECT * FROM table_name
WHERE towns LIKE \"$town\" ";
so if the search word is not EXACTLY like a row in the database, it may
return results to partial words.
Thanks in advance,
James.
You've basically got it... the advantage of LIKE is that you can add
wildcards to specify what can be different...
towns = '$town'
...and...
towns LIKE '$town'
...are essentially the same without the % wildcard character. Thus,
towns = '$town'
...is much different than...
towns LIKE '%$town%'

How different are they? I'm not even sure what a wildcard is....?
And thanks ;)

A wildcard is a character that can be used to represent any character (or
any set of any character). For instance, on many operating systems the *
wildcard represents what you could call "anything". So * is anything from
the empty string ('') to anything ('Toby Butzon'). '*zon', however, would
match only strings ending in 'zon'; thus, 'Toby Butzon' would match but
'Joe Smith' would not.
In SQL, the % symbol is used as the * wildcard.
Consider the following:
(id) bases
-------------
(1) Ft. Worth
(2) Ft. Benning
Here are some queries of the above table with their results....
bases='Ft. Worth' returns record 1
bases LIKE '%Worth%' returns record 1
bases LIKE '%Ft.%' returns 1 & 2
bases LIKE '%' returns all records (in this case, 1 & 2)
See?
> And thanks ;)
Of course.

That makes perfect sense. Thank you!
I'd like to be able to trim out some html tags, but only certain ones. I've
used eregi_replace before and have some replacements running on some
scripts...
Some of the help pages and user notes on the quick reference functions have
given me good examples of how to go about it. One thing I'm interested in,
though, is the syntax that's used to determine what the link URL is and the
link name... I think I saw it as:
//0 for the URL and then //1 for the link..... Like this (poor code, I
dunno whether I've even got the right delimiters):
eregi_replace("/<a href=\"//0\"/>//1/<//a/>\","//1",$string);
I'd like to strip out everything but the link name, so if someone inputs:
<a href="http://www.php.net">PHP!</a>
It replaces it with:
PHP!
Thanks, again. I seem to be asking a lot of questions today, hehe ;)

Can anyone shed any light on why the following code doesn't work? I'm
trying to interact with ssh through PHP's popen function.

<?php
function maxpsi($d) {
$fp = popen("/usr/bin/ssh -l julie summit.magenet.com", "w");
while ($string = fgets($fp,80)) {
echo $string;
}
pclose($fp);
}
echo "running ssh<BR>";
maxpsi(0);

probably because ssh requires an interactive

a command after the login parameter such as "ls"

You could have cURL make POST and GET requests to the remote server,
show headers (thus displaying the cookies), and parse the output
so that you can find the cookie values in your script.
cURL: http://curl.haxx.se/

Fetch the comfy chair!
PHP has a function called file_exits I belive... you can read about it on
the php manual at php.net under file functions.

I read somewhere that you could send SMs if you had your mobile phone linked
to your computer, and special software to needful to make the PC-mobile
interaction...
That way, you could send SMs by your mobile phone... but they should cost as
if you were sending them.
yeah you can do that, don't know about other phones, but for nokia
you need the cable, a phone with the appropriate plugs (ie a 5xx0 /
6xx0 / 7xx0 / 9xx0 model phone, not a 8xx0 or 3xx0 model), and
the nokia data suite or free alternative if they exist for your operating
system.

hi all,
anyone found a good graphical SGML editor for any platform that's no a
fortune?
http://www.adobe.com/store/products/framemakersgml.html
It would be really annoying to have to write a bunch of documentation for
binarycloud inside an plaintext xml document.
I'm surprised DocBook has gained so much support given the apparent lack of
good tools for authoring.
?

A lot of technical people aren't keen on WYSIWYG editors. Especially when
dealing with something like docbook that is designed to generate
documentation in dozens of formats. vim with its syntax colouring or
emacs with its validation mode really do a good job. I have been writing
a lot of docbook stuff lately for work and I find I am an order of
magnitude more productive than I ever was using something like Word.

Well, word is a terrible example being a terrible app, especially for
structured content.
Nothing?
No options?
No SGML editors out there with a tag catalog, etc?
and yes, WYSINWYG = what you see is _never_ what you get

Hi,
I have to write a schedule program, for which I need the following:
I have to calculate the date from a given week and vice versa.
For example: the week number is 26, and I have to know which was its first
day (the date, not the day of the week), say 06/21/2001, monday.
Thanks to Bignose, I've found a very interesting FAQ, the Calendar FAQ but
even this FAQ couldn't help me.

If the week number is 26, then thats 26 x 7 = 182 days into the year.
$unixtime = mktime(0, 0, 1, 1, 182, 2001); // January 182, 2001.
$dayofweek = date("l", $unixtime);
Somehow I think that this isn't *quite* what you were getting at,
though - but maybe it'll help.

Fetch the comfy chair!
the problem with that is as soon as you run a load-baanced installation,
collecting apache logs start to be a pain in the a$$ :)
I have given some thought to the logging thing, but am still undecided re:
letting apache do its thing, and writing scripts to aggregate the logs, or
turning off apache logging and going to the DB.
problem is this puts an annoying amount of stress on the production DB, so
there you have it, the dilemma :)

right, and though this is not directly related to templating:
I thik you would benefit greatly by introducing some system design (i.e.
separate "layers" doing separate tasks)
I don't like to do database connections when I've already output markup,
what if something goes wrong, or I want to do a redirect, etc?
I like to access functions in "DB Object" files - those functions return
results in arrays which I can pass into markup.
Makes the code a _helluvuh_ lot more maintainable.

True, but why not just bitch at macromedia until they include support for
PHP in ultradev?
(plegh, visual authoring tools: a necessary evil)

but that doesn't do you any good on pages that are getting results from a
DB, unless you're doing straight content queries. in which case, why not
just use a cache in front of your webservers that filters urls?

a. PHP4 specific
b. Many do not know what it is / what it does
c. Will not work when short_tags are disabled
d. Does not follow PEAR standards (ed. guess)
e. Looks funny / weird / out of place (opinion)
Those are my personal reasons.

Could someone give/sell me a clue as to variable tracking and/or cookie
usage over multiple form pages
for multiple users?
Environment: website
Number of variables: 390 or so.
I have 4 pages of forms, 4 result pages, and want to email all the results.
I put up one page of forms, they input, it spits the output to the result
page.
Each input/output works fine until the final output which comes up totally
empty.
This session tracking code (hopefully) heads the input pages
<?
if (!isset($id)) {
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$randval = rand();
setcookie("id",$randval,time()+14400,"/",".mywebpage.com",0);
}
?>
It is shown as echo "Your session number is $id"; which shows up on every
page except the first.
If I link the email output page to the first input page form, it outputs
the INFO SENT
html page and the email with all of the page info, so that part is working.
It just doesn't
track across several forms and if two people are logged in concurrently,
the same
session id number is used for both users. Arrrrrrrrrrrgh!
What am I missing here?
Should I be creating a database for this one-time-use info?
(Of course, the client dragged his feet for 5 months and now needs to get
it rolling
yesterday. I would appreciate any help ASAP.)
Thanks.
Larry
Hi, in my application I am making a lot of use of the eval() function,
however I was wondering if this is going to cause any extra load. Does it
do anything like load in the PHP engine again or anything? We just added it
in and the load on our web servers went up... so I was wondering if I should
be aware of anything.
Thanks,
Adam
Yes, eval() is expensive.
