It's not so much a "phenomememememememmemonmmm" as a deliberate design feature.
On multi-user machines and network servers it is very common to have a security layer
allowing tasks to only/not
be performed on the 'system console'. For example, would you want a remote user to
bring down a mainframe with
some sort of STOP command? If you were an ISP or a DB Service Provider, would you want
one user (using only one
table, or one database) to be able to reboot the entire MySQL server (and affect all
the other
users/user-tables/user-databases)?
Thus Fred@localhost is not the same privilege profile as Fred@somewhere-else to enable
flexibility in
access/security - even if Fred is the only user to ever touch the system! You have
figured out by now, that to
give Fred the same privileges on the server as from a client machine, they need to be
GRANTed 'twice'.
Looking at it the other way, such 'security' controls can be either limited by the
user location, or by the name
of the user, or by both!

Using the code below:
$buffer['Last_access'] = 1013336429;
$date = date("H:i D, nS M Y",$buffer['Last_access']);
print $date;
prints "10:20 Sun, 2th Feb 2002"
I didnt know there was a 2th of February!!

I've just realised that the suffix for the day of the month is correct for
today (1013336429) but it isn't the 2nd today and my clock is set right.
Anyone got any ideas?

Hey,
I'm trying to force a subject line on the reply email of a recieved email...
the recieved email is sent using the mail() function in php... can this be
done? I know i can do it using html by doing :
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=subect comes here
but not everyone allows html email... can i do something similar using the
mail() function?

You can't control anything about what someone sends you. Regardless
of what you try to do with browser/email client tricks, if I want to
send you a message with the subject as 'foo', that's what you'll get.
You can't stop or alter that.

Hi,
Anyone out there familiar with Apache's .htaccess & running PHP scripts?
I'm using Apaches's mod_rewrite to route some virtual hosts which runs great
but is causing HTTP Error 403 - Access forbidden errors just for my .php
scripts. I assume there is some sort of .htaccess statement that will get my
php scripts back working but I haven't found it yet.
Any help would be sincerely appreciated!!

Hi everyone,
PHP fopen function opens URL using the HTTP GET method. But what if one
could only open the web page using the HTTP POST method? In this case, fopen
won't work. Is there a PHP function that is similar to fopen, but uses HTTP
POST method to open URL instead? If not, then how do I work around this
problem?
Thanks,
Zlu

Umm... you might have to open a socket and read/write directly.
To do this, you'd have to look up the appropriate RFCs and write
the headers manually.
Anyone got a better idea?

Hi all,
Perhaps some one can help me.
If I send a cookie like
setcookie(+ACI-cookie+AF8-agtpasswd+ACI-,+ACQ-form+AF8-agent+AF8-pass, time()+-1200,
+ACI-/+ACI-)+ADs-
it does not work on the terminal which has a new version of windows 2000 and i use
IE6. The browser does not store the cookie.
but if is use
setcookie(+ACI-cookie+AF8-agtpasswd+ACI-,+ACQ-form+AF8-agent+AF8-pass)+ADs-
I can retrive the cookie variable.
This happens on a few terminal but for other with win 2000 it both cookie send works
fine.
Has anyone come across this problem?
Has anyone got any suggestions. Is this a problem of the win 2000 or the browser
setting.
thanks,
Hasan

Hi All,
I am trying to create an array from a text file that I will process and
rewrite in a new format. My question is, is it possible to read the
file
in one line at a time and then separate the tab-delimited fields and
finally rewrite the new file?
The fields are tab delimited and here is what I have attempted in code:
$lines = fopen("oldfile.txt", "r");
$newfields = explode("\t", $lines);
echo $newquotes[0];
I get a Resource ID #1 when I echo the line.
Thanks,
-Scott

Nevermind, I was able to figure it out using:
$myfile = file("oldfile.txt");
for ($s=0; $s<=count($myfile)-1; $s++) {
$fields = split("\t",$myfile[$s]);
print("$fields[1]\n");
}

That distracts me. Does the form change? I think not. It looks like
a data entry form and the only thing that would change would be
the DATE. I would think the form remains the same. I did not notice
any hidden field to indicate the date though.

Me, in a hurry, I'd just store one more column in your table: DATE.
I don't see it. I add that. When they want a previous date they just
say select all where date = date they want.

Umm ... this seems to indicate that maybe the form does change
??? I'm thinking maybe you might have different users. If so I'd add
a userid column.

There might be better ways to store the data but I don't usually
think about those things. I'd ask some old fogey who worked in the
days of 640K :) ... seriously ... but I think you'll end up going to
trouble for no reason. Memory, storage is cheap. A friend was
moaning that his app was slow (plain cgi/perl so I suggested
mod_perl/fastcgi) and they just threw a hardware upgrade and all
was well (but imho should still do mod_perl/fascgi).

I don't see the reason for a "different version" of the form for every
day. Isn't the date the only difference?

Well about how you would do it. It seems that PHP is in many
ways like the old one form, one cgi method of development. Were I
you I would not make my connection to the database in that script.
I'd do that in only one place. Odd how things tend to evolve and
before you know it you have 232 scripts all using
username/password/db/host and then you want to change that. I'd
look at something like metabase were I you.

I'm sure there is too... :)
Have you any experience with arrays?
PHP can accept data from the form in the form of an array, so you can
build your form and process it with many fewer lines than you have (and
modify things much easier).
If, for example, the club opened at 5:00 am in the future instead of 6,
you'd probably have to go change that big huge SQL statement, and add
more lines to the code, right? If you build with arrays, and smartly,
you can avoid much of the work you're doing.
BTW - the 'smartly' thing isn't to imply you're not smart. I'm simply
saying there are techniques to make this stuff easier, and once you
know them, you won't go back, and you'll work faster.
I'd probably make each time/date a separate entry in a table, so each
day would have 196 entries, instead of one row having 196 columns, which
you seem to be doing.
<?
$startkey = 600;
$starttime = (5 * 3600); // EDT is 5 hours behind GMT, so we get
ourselves to midnight
$starttime = $starttime + (3600 * 6) ; // start off at 6 hours into the
morning
$endtime = $starttime + (3600 * 18) ; // end 18 hours in the future
?> <table> <?
while ($starttime < $endtime) {
$time = date("h:i A",$starttime);
$x = date("Hi",$starttime);
?>
<td><b><font size="2"><?=$time;?></font></b></td>
<td><input type="radio" name="fs[<?=$x;?>]" value="fw">
<input type="radio" name="fs[<?=$x;?>]" value="sp"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="num[<?=$x;?>]" size="4"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="sur[<?=$x;?>]" size="8"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="giv[<?=$x;?>]" size="8"></td>
<td>
<select size="1" name="apt[<?=$x;?>]">
<option selected value="1">1
<option value="2">2
<option value="re">Re
</select>
</td>
<td><input type="text" name="ph[<?=$x;?>]" size="8"></td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="c[<?=$x;?>]" value="ON"></td>
</tr>
<?
$starttime = $starttime + 1800;
}
?>
<input type="hidden" name="date" value="<?=$dateValueYouPassIn;?>"
</table>
As an example, this seems more manageable to me. the EDT is for me -
that's my timezone. You'd need to adjust yours to start with, but
everything else should work OK. You're left with arrays that will get
submitted to PHP like
$num[0600]
$sur[0600] etc.
if you did this...
<?
while (list($k,$v) = each($num)) {
$n = $num[$k];
$s = $sur[$k];
$g = $giv[$k];
$a = $apt[$k];
$p = $ph[$k];
$c = $c[$k];
$f = $fs[$k];
$sql = "insert into info (date,time,num,sur,giv,apt,ph,c,fs) values (";
$sql .= "'$date','$k','$n','$s','$g$','$a','$p','$c','$f')";
// do SQL processing here
}
?>
Realize this isn't fully functioning code, but might give you a better
idea on how to approach it.
Hope that helps...

I'm sure there is too... :)
Have you any experience with arrays?
PHP can accept data from the form in the form of an array, so you can
build your form and process it with many fewer lines than you have (and
modify things much easier).
If, for example, the club opened at 5:00 am in the future instead of 6,
you'd probably have to go change that big huge SQL statement, and add
more lines to the code, right? If you build with arrays, and smartly,
you can avoid much of the work you're doing.
BTW - the 'smartly' thing isn't to imply you're not smart. I'm simply
saying there are techniques to make this stuff easier, and once you
know them, you won't go back, and you'll work faster.
I'd probably make each time/date a separate entry in a table, so each
day would have 196 entries, instead of one row having 196 columns, which
you seem to be doing.
<?
$startkey = 600;
$starttime = (5 * 3600); // EDT is 5 hours behind GMT, so we get
ourselves to midnight
$starttime = $starttime + (3600 * 6) ; // start off at 6 hours into the
morning
$endtime = $starttime + (3600 * 18) ; // end 18 hours in the future
?> <table> <?
while ($starttime < $endtime) {
$time = date("h:i A",$starttime);
$x = date("Hi",$starttime);
?>
<td><b><font size="2"><?=$time;?></font></b></td>
<td><input type="radio" name="fs[<?=$x;?>]" value="fw">
<input type="radio" name="fs[<?=$x;?>]" value="sp"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="num[<?=$x;?>]" size="4"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="sur[<?=$x;?>]" size="8"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="giv[<?=$x;?>]" size="8"></td>
<td>
<select size="1" name="apt[<?=$x;?>]">
<option selected value="1">1
<option value="2">2
<option value="re">Re
</select>
</td>
<td><input type="text" name="ph[<?=$x;?>]" size="8"></td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="c[<?=$x;?>]" value="ON"></td>
</tr>
<?
$starttime = $starttime + 1800;
}
?>
<input type="hidden" name="date" value="<?=$dateValueYouPassIn;?>"
</table>
As an example, this seems more manageable to me. the EDT is for me -
that's my timezone. You'd need to adjust yours to start with, but
everything else should work OK. You're left with arrays that will get
submitted to PHP like
$num[0600]
$sur[0600] etc.
if you did this...
<?
while (list($k,$v) = each($num)) {
$n = $num[$k];
$s = $sur[$k];
$g = $giv[$k];
$a = $apt[$k];
$p = $ph[$k];
$c = $c[$k];
$f = $fs[$k];
$sql = "insert into info (date,time,num,sur,giv,apt,ph,c,fs) values (";
$sql .= "'$date','$k','$n','$s','$g$','$a','$p','$c','$f')";
// do SQL processing here
}
?>
Realize this isn't fully functioning code, but might give you a better
idea on how to approach it.
Hope that helps...

I believe there's something in PEAR, which should have come with your
distribution - look at pear.php.net also. There's some mail handling
classes, and one deals with not only sending MIME, but unencoding it as
well.

Hi All,
This is the first time I have had to deal with math. I have gone
through the manual and a few books and I think I am worse off then when
I started. Can someone give me an example of the simple math below. I
think If I see some in code I can move on from there.
I need to find out if $pa > $pb or $pb > $pa then subtract smallest from
the largest and add $ca and then add $ps
TIA

Break the problem down:
I need to subtract the lesser (minimum) of $pa and $pb from the
greater (maximum) of $pa and $pb;
Then just add $ca and $ps.
So something like this will do it:
$result = (max($pa, $pb) - min($pa, $pb)) + $ca + $ps;
Hope this helps,
Torben

Try:
ABS($pa - $pb) + $ca + $ps;

No ifs :)
Maybe I'm lazy, but I like 1 line statements

what about this?
$contents = str_replace('<?xml version="1.0"?'.'>', '', $contents);

Subject: [PHP] escaping ?>
I'm trying to do some string replaces on XML files to import them into a
prprietary db that doesn't understand XML.
I need to strip the XML tags out of the file.
However, when I use this line:
$contents = str_replace('<?xml version="1.0"?>', '', $contents);
The ?> in the string ends my php block.
I know there's an easy answer to this, and I'm probably just suffering
from Friday afternoon burnout, but can someone let me know how to escape
those so that I can search for them in the string?
thanks,
Steven
