Hi All:
I need to print out several paragraphs of information stored in a MySql
field to a web page. To do this I am using:
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "dbase", "password");
mysql_select_db("dbase",$db);
$sql = "SELECT update FROM members WHERE username = 'Don'";
$query = mysql_query($sql);
$results = mysql_fetch_array($query);
$text = $results["update"];
echo "$text";
but it does not insert the returns between the paragraphs. I think I need
to tell it to insert a <p> in place of the return. There is a way to do
this as I have seen it on the PHP site when I was searching for something
else. Of course now that I need it I can't find the example. Can someone
please help me figure this out?
Thank you,
Louis Brooks
You are looking for the function nl2br()
Information here: http://www.newbienetwork.net/article.php?sid=70
And here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.nl2br.php
See echo statement below for example implementation.

So this will do then:
$GLOBALS["userPassword"] = "whatever";
And when I need to use it, I use
echo userPassword;
and such alike?
What if I would like to change it? Can I simply use
'userPassword="whatever"';
?
Thanks,
Richard
Wrong examples written in my past post.
$GLOBALS["userPassword"] = "whatever";
global $userPassword;
and then write/read from it?
- Richard
You need to be more specific than that.
You cannot demand the browser to start printing, only thing is to write the
contents of the report to a webpage and then the visitor/user can print it
out if she/he likes.
It depends on how you have stored the reports.

Not true if JavaScript is enabled (and most browsers do).
window.print();
prints the document (but in fact, it will popup a printing
dialog)
- Markus
I believe there is a window.print() JavaScript code, that lets you
print a document. I've never used it, so I'm not sure.
<a href=# onClick="window.print();">Print Document </a>
//or something like that...
good luck !!

That's a good way to get started on handling emails with PHP.
I'd need to know more about what you want to do to tell you if PHP is the
way to do it.
If you want to run a mail server which takes incoming emails and directly
writes them to a database, PHP probably isn't the way to go. A Java Servlet
would probably be a more appropriate application for that.
But I don't think that's what you're wanting to do.

phpinfo() allways has a list of variables. but of course every variable is
allways in $GLOBALS too.

In the end-loop condition, you're using assignment ('=') instead of if-equal
('==').
Effectively, the loop runs until 5 == 0 ;-)
Just found this site recently, and after a little playing I found out that
it uses the .php3 extension as it's main feature. I believe it uses PHP for
just about everything it does, which is a great example of how PHP can do
just about anything web technology allows ;)
Here it is (excellant for people at work/in foreign countrys):
https://www.safeweb.com/
Their triangleboy application of course doesn't use PHP as their server has
to spoof packets, but their online site uses it. And they're pretty huge,
showing that PHP really can handle high-load websites.
Enjoy,

I was wondering, when you set your browser's proxy setting to localhost, how
do you access that information through a program?
In PHP would you open a specific stream, or would you open a socket on
127.0.0.1 with the same port as the one you specified in your browser?
Basically when you make your browser use a localhost proxy, where does the
information actually "go"? Does the browser open a socket and send the
information to whatever it connects to? If there has to be something
listening on that port, what happens if two applications are listening to
the same port? Do they both get the same data?
Thanks in advance of my other thank yous,
Plutarck

You may want to try Metabase. It supports many database consistently in
such way that you can write fully database independent applications that
work with the supported databases:

i'm wondering if mod_php4 is faster than mod_perl.
thank you,
christopher
apples & oranges. :)
but mod_php without cache (e.g., zend cache) still suffers
from an overhead of recompiling scripts in every request
(serious overhead if the site is complex).

I cannot for the life of me get browscap.ini to work.
Also the browserhawk version of the browscap.ini is sadly out of date.
Anyone have any leads for me on getting this to work? I consistently get an
empty array returned.
Thanks,
Wes

First, get_browser() seems to break in every other release, particularly on
Windows. You might want to search bugs.php.net to see if it will work at all on
your system & version.
If you are using a build with a functional get_browser(), check out
asptracker.com for a more recent browscap.ini.

It appears that the integer type being used by these functions is not able
to store the entire 32 bits (4 bytes). It can only handle up to 31 bits -
my guess is the type is signed when it should be unsigned.
In any case,I'm running PHP 4.0.5 on Linux 2.4.3 on an x86 machine. I
would appreciate it if a someone can verify this before I submit it as a
bug.

You're right. Integers are allways signed and therefore 31 Bit. Use this:
$ip = '192.168.100.102';
$lo = ip2long($ip);
if ($lo < 0) $lo += pow(2,32);
$lo does now contain the right value, PHP internally converts the data type
to double.
BTW, long2ip() accepts both values, a signed integer or a double value.
I think this isn't a bug, it is due to the pure type concept of PHP,
where no real long-values or bigint (like MySQL) are possible.
Put a better type concept on your wishlist for PHP 5.

Hi,
I've had php (4.0.5) working fine with postgres and w-agora (forum
software), but am now having trouble after trying installs of php-nuke and
phpWebSite. These use mysql, which has also been freshly installed.
After a reboot the <? phpinfo(); ?> tag executes immediately, but after
trying to execute a php script from one of the new web apps all php scripts
perform very slowly and the results include the following error at the
bottom of the page:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in Unknown on
line 0
This happens even for a test page with nothing but the <? phpinfo(); ?>
tag.
It does seem like php is connecting to mysql, since the results that are
eventually returned include database-depended content. For phpinfo() most
results are returned immediately but the page hangs after the php variables
heading, and results for this page are not returned until the 30 second time
limit is apparently reached. Then those results are displayed, followed by
the error described above.
Other pages, say the admin.php page for phpWebSite, don't return anything
until the time limit expires. Then what seems to be the entire page is
displayed, followed by the same error line.
Any help would be much appreciated. I've been beating my head against this
for quite a while.
Thanks,
Dave De Graff

readdir returns the file/directory name without path, is_file and is_dir
expect a complete filenam with path. So unless you only examine your
current directory, is_file & is_dir won't find the files.

sleep () does exactly that - putting the process to sleep for the
specified period. It doesn't use any processing power during that time
and it might even use less memory (if it is swapped out).

You do a
print (readfile ('foo'));
right?
Well, readfile reads the file *and outputs it*, then returns the number
of chars read. That is passed to print (). So just use
readfile ('foo');

Hi All!
i'm creating this form for people to upload pictures,
so i want to be able to compare the type of the file,
so that if it's not a .gif or a .jpg i give them an
error message!
What i am using is:
If ($userfile_type == "image/gif")
- here it uploads the file
otherwise it sends out an error message!
but the problem i'm having is that even when i try
uploading a .txt it accepts it and uploads it without
giving the error message.
Is there another way to compare strings? or is ==
operater correct? or what am i doing wrong?
thanks!

Hi:
For compare strings you can use strcmp.
$st1 = "hi";
$st2 = "bye";
if (strcmp($st1, $st2)) {
echo "are different";
}
else {
echo "are equal";
}
The strcmp return 0 when the strings are equal. If the strings are diferent,
return the pos of the char where begin the diference.
I think you can use this without problems.
********************

I'm current trying to use PHP's unpack feature to decode a binary string and
am running into a problem.
Here is the unpack command I am using
$playerdata = unpack("czero/A$lengthone/itwo/fthree/A*four", $rest);
basically it is setup so that the hash created has 5 key/value pairs named
zero, one, two, three and four. However my problem is with the second
key/value pair. Since the information I need for the second field is
dynamic I need to be able to set a variable there to tell PHP exactly how
many characters are to be parsed for that field. So say $length = 5 right
now the command would be translated by PHP as
$playerdata = unpack("czero/A5one/itwo/fthree/A*four", $rest);
At least that's what I need =) The problem I'm experiencing right now is
that PHP translates the variable as $lengthone instead of just $length which
of course always results in 0 and then causes the data to be parsed
incorrectly. I cannot use whitespace to separate $length and one as then
the unpack feature breaks down thinking that whitespace should be in the
string I'm unpacking which messes things up as well.
Any suggestions/tips for handling this problem would be much appreciated =)
I've been plagued with this problem for a few days now and I'm having no
luck =/
Sincerely,
Craig Vincent
$playerdata = unpack('czero/A'.$length.'one/itwo/fthree/A*four', $rest);
Good Luck!

Hi all,
I have a list of email addresses pulled from a database and I want to send
out an email to all of them (they are the registered users of this
particular site). For the first issue of the newsletter I expect to have
about 4000 people, but that will probably go up significantly in future
issues.
I can do the sending email normally and extraction of addresses, but my
question was really a more general one.
Is there anything I should be doing different when sending to so many?
Is it better to send a load of addresses altogether (in bcc for example) for
each mail call? how many?
or is it better to use a mail call for each address? I did a few quick speed
test and mail seemed to be very fast. I guess this way would have the
advantage of being able to personallise for each person.
And is there a possibility that my mails would be blocked my some kind of
spam filtering system? Its not I might add!
Any advice and past experience would be very welcome.
BTW, my system is apache on linux, php 4.0.4pl1 running on a cobalt raq.
Thanks in advance

Hey there i noticed sometinh quite odd when trying to include a class
definition:
There are several classes in the project in question.
Every class resides i a separate file that gets included.
When i call the following method
function mRenderPrintNav($client) {
show_var("",get_declared_classes());//debugcode
include($this->pApp->pPath."/".$this->pApp->pCommonPath."/layernav.cls.php");
//include the class definition
$menu=new Menu;
$this->mRenderNavWalk($client,&$menu);
$menu->printMenu();
}
PHP complains
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class menu in ..//_common/layernav.cls.php
on line 3
ok i started checking if i include the file twice, ich wrote some chars
before the first <?
in the class file, and i see the chars once, but not twicw.
There is no other class called menu in the same project.
So i checked the defined classes with PHP's get_declared_classes().
if i check the declared classes *before* the include it says that the
class Menu is defined.
if i uncomment the include (it is called after get_declared_classes())
the class is not defined at all.
weird.i dont get it.
maybe you do
thank you guys
Jens
