No. (btw, be sure to quote your strings). In reading
the table found here:
http://www.php.net/ini_set
You will notice short_open_tag has this level:
PHP_INI_SYSTEM|PHP_INI_PERDIR
And according to the documentation, most namely the
documenation found here:
http://www.php.net/configuration.changes
It can be set in the following (in Apache) or similar
depending your web server:
.htaccess
php.ini
httpd.conf
Closest you have is .htaccess But, if you don't want
to worry about it, just use echo as someone already
suggested, instead of embedding it. Something like:
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8">';
Btw, the question proposed in this thread is also a
documented FAQ here:

How can I do the following.... (I know it's simple..!!!)
All from the same page...

The issue I seem to have is that if I open the external page during the
onload... it's not ready when I want to write the data....
Any hints/comments/samples....

Wrong order...
1. do some processing (eg home.php)
2. open/create a file (eg debugger.php)
3. write to it during the processing of your page, save it
4. open the new window with the url of the debug file, most probably as a
onload javascript command.
> Any hints/comments/samples....
Any coding examples you need will be in the manual pages and user comments
relating to fopen, fwrite, etc... read them and if you're STILL stuck, post
what code you have, and we can help more.
FWIW, this seems like too much work to me... I just debug IN my code, and
set a global config of $debug to true for development, and false for live
server, and do things like this:
if($debug) {
echo "<p class='error'>Justin, you're an idiot: ".mysql_error()."</p>";
}

All of the responses I saw recommended the same tool: CVS. There is
another one which I might be tempted to use depending on the size of
the project: SVN.
here's the project page:
http://subversion.tigris.org/
and here is some excellent documentation:

Thanks Ralph and everyone else who posted a hint.
I'm using the array method. Much better and, I'm ashamed to admit it, it
means I can do away with my hidden input with "number of fields" too...

Hello Everyone
This is slightly off topic... so ignore or comment.
Just wondering where does the term RTFM actually originate. And wouldn't
it be better to say RTM or RTAM (thats Read the amazing Manual) since as a
foreigner, that means non english native speaker, I can't see whats so
f...ing about the Manual?!
I mean it's the single most important knowledge source when it comes to
php. SO Guys and Gals use it as much as possible.
HINT: The online version even has a very nice search function.
Just had to say this. Oh and for all those that do not know of the fact
that there is an archive for this list: There is a searchable archive for
this list. Just go to www.php.net/mailing-lists.php and click on the
appropriate link.

Hi,
According to Hackers Jargon
RTFM: /R·T·F·M/, imp.
[Unix] Abbreviation for ‘Read The Fucking Manual’.
1. Used by gurus to brush off questions they consider trivial or
annoying. Compare Don't do that then!.
2. Used when reporting a problem to indicate that you aren't just
asking out of randomness. “No, I can't figure out how to interface Unix
to my toaster, and yes, I have RTFM.” Unlike sense 1, this use is
considered polite. See also FM, RTFAQ, RTFB, RTFS, STFW, RTM, all of
which mutated from RTFM, and compare UTSL.
But I think, orginally it is Read The Fine Manual ;)

No, the other version is definitely the original -- "Fine" is a sanitization to avoid
the use of a strong, and possibly offensive, expletive. (You could also substitute a
less offensive word, such as "flaming" or "flipping", although those may not be well
understood outside the UK (or even *in* some parts of it!! ;) )
Cheers!

fopen() returns FALSE if it fails, and that's probably what happends here.
$_POST is superglobal so register_globals doesn't mean anything to it. Just
use the proper functions for filename and filesize:
$_FILES['userfile']['name']
$_FILES['userfile']['size']
Of course you should move the uploaded file from it temporary location
somewhere in the script. Look "Chapter 18. Handling file uploads" for
further details ...

What incentive does a company have to provide service like this?
We have a free hosting package, and we don't do pop-ups, but every page
is watermarked, so it acts as advertising for us. If you don't consider
that an "ad", then feel free to visit http://www.it.ca/web/ and sign up.
The management software is still a little under development, so this
package will work better if you have enough technical ability to install
your own software.

Hi everyone!
I would like to know if I need to empty from time to time the directory
where the session files are stored. I'm running windows nt4.0 and Apache.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Ivan
That would probably be a good idea yes. On linux and unix based OS's
sessions are usually stored in /tmp which gets periodically cleaned of
old junk files.
Depending on how your windows machine is set up, you might need to clean
the dir every now and again, i dont remember anything that did this in
the NT4 OS, but its been a long time since I used it. That said if you
have allot of space it could probably go without cleaning for years :)

hi,
does anybody know how I could identify the browser window?
my problem is, that i have a application framework and I want
to use multiple windows providing different GUIs.
Each window should be able to send a request and send a proper
session key or unique key which identifies the application window.
I cannot use get/post parameters, because the framework works
in a different way and uses the path info. i also don't want
to use the path info to pass through the window key.
can cookies be stored for single browser instances (windows)?
does the browser send some information that could be uses?
thanks in advance,
dorgon

--------------------[snip]--------------------
Short answer - no, and no.
Cookies are stored browser-wide, and if the user presses Ctrl+N (or else)
to open a new window you would never detect it. Even using some
sophisticated techniques like session access counters, session serial
numbers, etc, are not guaranteed to work since the browser may have cached
the page contents and simply _locally_ copied it to the new window, not
issuing a new request.
However you may use a serial number in session data that is incremented
with each request. Incorporate this number in any form or session-based
link to have the browser transmit it back to you. Then compare if the
serial number matches the expected vale; if not it's a reload and you can
proceed as seems fit.
However you don't have a chance to recognize if the reload comes from
simply a page reload, or from a window clone.
BTW - this is the reason I have switched off session cookies at my servers.
Having the SID available allows to run more than one session from a single
browser instance.
HTH,

hi sid,
this is often discussed here.
if you use your local installation only for development purposes, you can
set register_globals = on in php.ini.
but if you want a more secure plattform, leave it off and write you scripts
with $_GET[]. (some additional help:
http://de3.php.net/manual/function.extract.php). so you also don't rely on
register_globals by hosting externally.

have a small problem though. Variables being sent via the GET method are not
getting parsed. I can acess these variables via the $_GET["variable"] method
but not through $variable. Any idea why. Most of my old PHP scripts accessed
the variables directly by their name and so this will be a very very big
problem for me. Any idea how I can get this old feature back.

hi all together,
our team started working with topic maps one jear ago,
with java (tm4j).
now we decide to develop a tool with php which
displays us a topicmap.
we`ve tried several ways to display it, but no one was ok.
my question:
does anyone know a solution for displaying a topicmap with php,
without the use of any other languages like java, etc. ?
thanks !
yours sincerly

Hi all
Is it possible to write to files on a server via a browser, then zip those
files up and email them to the user?
Detail:
I want to enable my website visitors to customize a php script with their
details, all via field inputs. Write that personal info into the script
files << upto here it's easy >> but how does the server zip the package up,
email the package to the visitor and reset the values for the next user?
Thanks in advance!

To create zip archives you can use exec() (and friends) to call a command-line
zip archive creating program. If you don't have access to one and for some
reason are unable to install one then I believe that there is a pure PHP
class (does not rely on external programs) which allows you to work with zip
archives.
> email the package to the visitor and reset the values for the next user?
Make sure that the files that you create are uniquely named (uniq()) then you
don't need to worry about how to "reset the values".

Like I said, I need a web host.
It MUST support PHP, mySQl and sending emails, optional.
It shouldn't have any ads (pop-ups, ads), but I will allow if it has
watermarks (SMALL! watermarks).
It should be TOTALY FREE!
