[PHP] Printing from PHP
Is it possible to have a php a script that will run on my server but let me print to my client network printer? What I am doing is using php to generate html for a report from a data base which is displayed on the clients screen. I would like to offer the client the option of printing this report on their local printer . If php will not support access to a client printer is there any way of embedding a Form Feed in the display so that if the screen report is printed than the data will be correctly paginated?

Re: [PHP] selecting count and then dumping to an array
Try
select type, count(*) from table group by type;
This should return a count for each distinct type value.

Re: [PHP] Re Sessionid
Is the value returned by session_id (), called after session_star() always a unique string? The results of several trials gave me: 6f88d2d3fd7d0d47aea1e45087368adc 3cc2c1b299fcaa6f4fd107683d78a00c 115e8da118af1c5d88d6db1c1481077a 26dda220f9d64de593ce2f2de6b4bb6e 26dda220f9d64de593ce2f2de6b4bb6e i.e. every time i started a new session I got a unique string, while the string remained the sme within the same session. How is this string derived? Regards Peter Goggin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re user Identifying
I did not make my request for information clear. The two scenarios which I
have to cover:
1. The user registers as a customer with the site. In this case the shopping
basket and items can be attached to the customer Id. and the shopping basket
made available across sessions. The shopping basket is created when the
first item is added. It is closed when the final order is placed. I have
already coded this and it works satisfactorily.
2. The user does not register. Instead the process is to add items to a
shopping basket, which is then converted to an order or discarded at the end
of the session. How do I identify shopping baskets belonging to different
concurrent users? Should I include the session Id in the record, use
cookies or what?
Is the php session Id a unique ID ?

[PHP] Re user Identifying
My site uses shopping baskets to record what the user wants to but. These records are stored in a database against the user. This requires the user to register and log onto the site. Is it possible to avoid this by the use of cookies or some other method? Is it possible to use both methods in parallel. so that the user can choose either method. i.e. choose to register as a customer, or use the default id (perhaps via the cookie) and enter customer information at the time of placing the order? Any advice on the best way of doing this would be greatly appreciated. Regards Peter Goggin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Web Site
I am setting up a web site which will be hosted on my own equipmet at home, located in Melbourne, Australia I would like some general advice on two questions. 1. What sort of permanent interconnect should I look at (Cable is not available in my area). Is DSL suitable? Are there any good providers in the area? 2. I need to set up credit card payments. Has anyone any experience with PayPal? Are there any other providers I should consider. I don't know if this is the correct list for the questions, but if not perhaps someone could point me to where I can get some advice.

[PHP] Linked drop down selection lists and dynamically generated links
I have two related tables. The first has about 12 records, each of which is related to about 12 records in the second table. I want to have two interconnectedt dropdown list fields. The fisrt is used to select from the first table and when the value has been selected, use it to determine the contents of the second drop down list. Once the second field has been selected I want to use this data to otain the name of the form to be used to display data selected using the two fields. Obviously I can do this by having interrelated pages where the value from the first fields is carried to the second page and used to populate the second drop down list. I can then presumably dynamically generate the link to the required page and pass over what paraeters are needed. Is there any way of doing this so within a single page? Can this be done using only PHP or do I need to use Javascripts? Where would I be able to find examples of code which does this sort of processing? Any adivice would be gratefully received.

[PHP] Passing more than one variable with alink
I need to pass more than one variable with a link.
I cannot see the syntax listed anywhere.
I am using :
printf ("",$catitempage,$catrange);
Obviously the separators between the two variablesare incorrect. i.e. I
have: ?catitempage=%s;?catrange=%s
Can anyone tell me what it should be or where I can find a reference to
these sort of syntax problems.

Hi,
I'm a newbie, so please have mercy on my silliness...
I've checked my formats, and can't seem to understand why I can connect to
the db, but not select the db that I want to use. The following code always
returns the "Couldn't select database" error.
If I use the mysql monitor, I can select the database directly without any
problems.
Could someone point out what I'm missing?

Re: [PHP] Apache, html, php and global variables
I certainly read your reply and tried it with the session_start as the first
line of the php secion. I have since remove the HTML etc. The script
appears to work with out error .
I was able to set session vars etc and the script completed with out error
and the session vars could be printed out at the end of the script.
I then called another php script from my menu frame and was not able to find
the _session vars which showed as blanks. I put the session_start() as first
line of php block but this still did not make it possible to read the
session vars.
Do I need to use names sessions or what? Is there some setting that is
required in the php.ini or apache to make this work?
As I stated at the beigining of the e-mail saga what i want to be able to do
is to set global variables which will be available to any php script. In
particular i want to ensure that each user has an individual connection to
data abse and that this is maintained through out the session. I have set
the connection up to use the mysql_pconnect function, but I still need to
reconnect in every script which uses the database. I therefore need to be
able to caryy the username/password from onepage to the next.
Is the start_session and session variables the corect way to do this or is
there a better way?

Peter Goggin

The script is:

");
printf ("DBA USER: ",$_SESSION_VARS["dbauser"],"");
printf ("");
printf ("DBA Password; ",$_SESSION_VARS["dbapassword"],"");
?>
Is there a problem with how I am using sessiot_start, or is there a php
config problem?

Re: [PHP] Apache, html, php and global variables
I am not certain how this helps me, since it appears the data is only carried to pages called directly from where it is set. The page where the user logs onto the database does not link to other pages. This is done from the top frame of the form. The top frame of the inital page contains the menu, one option of which is to log onto the data base to start a session. The user will then select another page from the top form. This new page is displayed in the bottom frame of the intial page, and there may be futher links within this page on the bottom fram.Generally however main navigation is from the top frame which remains in place through out. What I wabt to do is to have the login information available at all times once the user is logged in, nomattar how the current page is called. Is this possible? If so how is this done? - Original Message - From: "Stuart Dallas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, June 01, 2002 11:56 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] Apache, html, php and global variables > On Saturday, June 1, 2002 at 2:42:40 AM, you wrote: > > Is there any way of caryying the login information from one web page to the > > next in global variables so that the username and password entered in the > > login screen is available to all other web pages in the site or do I have to > > ask the user to re-enter this information at every screen? > > Sessions: http://www.php.net/session > > -- > Stuart > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Apache, html, php and global variables
I do not know whether this is a question for this list, but if not perhaps someone can tell me where to raise it. I am designing a web site which has a number of pages. One of these provides the facility for the user to log onto a mysql database. Other web pages allow the user to query and update different tables in the database. I used the mysql_pconnect function in the login page and assumed that the connection would automatically be available to all other pages in the site as they are invoked, but find that I have to include it in every page that access the data base. Is there any way of caryying the login information from one web page to the next in global variables so that the username and password entered in the login screen is available to all other web pages in the site or do I have to ask the user to re-enter this information at every screen?
