Re: [PHP] Best Practice to Create Dynamic URL's- With Username
Hi, ... As has been suggested you could use mod_rewrite, but you don't have to if your needs are simple (or maybe you don't have it). You could also use the ForceType directive. Eg on my website the URLs are like this: http://www.phpguru.org/article/20-years-of-php Where article is actually a PHP file without the .php extension. It's forced to run as a PHP file using this: Files article ForceType application/x-httpd-php /Files And you will find the URL in $_SERVER somewhere. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 graphing: RGraph - www.rgraph.net (updated 5th September) Lots of PHP and Javascript code - http://www.phpguru.org -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi, ... You can write a single byte to the file to increment the counter, then to read the count just use filesize(). I believe the a fopen() mode will handle locking for you.

Re: [PHP] Sessions
Hi, .. This is precisely what I do, albeit my file is called config.php, and not init.php. Not that it makes a jot of difference. This file is used to setup the environment, so that way everything I commonly need is available simply by including one file. One thing to note though is that a database connection is not established by default. I used to get a lot of comment spam on my blog and because it was needlessly connecting to the database, it was bringing down the server.

Re: [PHP] CSV file
Hi, Well, you are reading the whole file there (and throwing the data you read not assigning the fgets result to anything), and then to store it in the database you need to read it again, so you read the file twice. It will probably better to store the data you read the first time in an array and then store it in the database, that way you read it only once. No, it's not. If the file is large then you could end up reading megs into memory. If physical memory is low then the pagefile will come into play and you'll get a lot of disk accesses. Reading 1 line at a time is far more efficient and with larger files will be faster. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 graphing: RGraph (www.rgraph.net - updated 20th June) PHP mail: RMail (www.phpguru.org/rmail) PHP datagrid: RGrid (www.phpguru.org/rgrid) PHP Template: RTemplate (www.phpguru.org/rtemplate) PHP SMTP: http://www.phpguru.org/smtp -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] CSV file
Hi, You can read the whole file (file_get_contents) and count the number of \n in it, or read it line by line with fgets and store the lines in an array, and then the number of lines is the count() of the array, and you can use that array to store it in the database. If you have a billion line CSV then speed may suffer somewhat though.

Re: [PHP] CSV file
Hi, If you want to know how many lines there are *before* inserting to the database, you can't count as you go, you have to either read the file twice or read it once, store it memory in a variable and then insert in the database. Sure you can, simply do the line count first, then the insert.

Re: [PHP] PHP Graphing Libraries...?
Hi, I've looked at the docs and I don't see how exactly it handles x,y plotting. I need the ability to plot multiple lines (which it obviously does) with wildly varying x,y values. It seems that all of these libraries cheat and force common x values via the labels. I need something like the following (all in the same chart): $line_one_data = [x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y] $line_two_data = [x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y] $line_three_data = [x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y,x,y] $graph-plot($line_one_data,$line_two_data,$line_three_data) As I said, each line has its own set of x,y, and although they're all obviously numbers, they don't all have y results at the same x intervals so I need to be able to control them independently. Surely there's something that can accommodate this...? Well the line doesn't do this, the X values are linear. However the Scatter works like this. ie You set an maximum X value and the X values are put in the corresponding places. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 graphing: RGraph (www.rgraph.net - updated 23rd May) PHP mail: RMail (www.phpguru.org/rmail) PHP datagrid: RGrid (www.phpguru.org/rgrid) PHP Template: RTemplate (www.phpguru.org/rtemplate) PHP SMTP: http://www.phpguru.org/smtp -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Unfortunately, after 20+ years of coding I cannot get my brain around regular expressions to any decent level of proficiency, I know sad.

Re: [PHP] object literals
Hi,
$x = (object) array('a'=1, 'b'=3, ...);
which works but isn't very lovely. it's neater in, for example, javascript.
Well, you could wrap it up in a function to make it a bit lovelier. Eg:
$foo = createObject(array('key' = 'value'));
It's not great, but PHP doesn't have a object literal syntax AFAIK.

Hi,
You could use JSON,

but I guess that's not much better than Richard's suggestion.
Didn't think of that (well... it's new). That's actually much better I
think, since you get the added boon of ease of portability to JS (if
that's even a factor).

Re: [PHP] CamelCase conversion to proper_c_style
Hi, I know it's probably heresy for a lot of coders, but does anyone know a function or class or regexp or somesuch which will scan through a PHP file and convert all the CamelCase code into proper C-type code? That is, CamelCase gets converted to camel_case. I snagged a bunch of someone else's PHP code I'd like to modify, but it's coded the wrong way, so I'd like to fix it. (I'm teasing you CamelCase people. But I really would like to change this code around, because it doesn't happen to be my preference.) I'd say, if you must, then change as you go.

your function could be condensed to this:

}
Or even better, this:

{
return is_array($a);

Not that I'd imagine it makes a great deal of difference.

Re: [PHP] Multiple return statements in a function.
Hi,
while(true){
Yikes.
Personally, I'd put the return value wherever it will make the code
easier to read. If you're checking what has been passed as arguments,
and one of them is wrong, I think there's little point in continuing,
so an immediate return is the order of the day. Though with
exceptions, this could be mitigated (IIRC). BTW there's also something
to be said for code conciseness, which I think is loosely related. Eg
your function could be condensed to this:
function check($a)
{
return is_array($a) ? true : false;
}
But then the question is nullified somewhat.

Re: [PHP] https and Credit Cards
Hi, I've always put any forms that collect credit card information behind a secure connection, https, figuring that sending that information from the client browser to the server should be secure, but I'm having convincing a client that it is necessary. He instead insists that only the call to the credit card processor's server needs to be secure and of course the processor supplies the connection there. But doesn't also the form need to be secure since you're sending CC information from that form back to the web site's server? Yes. Any connection to you where your punter supplies CC details should be secure. If the punters ISP runs a transparent proxy for example, then these details could be easily captured if not sent over a secure connection. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 Canvas graphing for Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari: http://www.rgraph.net (Updated April 11th) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] file_get_contents for URLs?
Hey all, Hello. I'm doing some maintenance work on an existing system and there is a piece of code that uses file_get_contents() to read data from a URL, which is fine in theory I suppose. But the problem is sometimes the server where that URL lives is not available, and the system hangs indefinitely. Shouldn't this be done with curl, and if so can it be done so that the call will time out and return control back when the server is not available? Looking at the docs alone, it looks like you can pass a stream as the third argument to file_get_contents(). So create a stream, set the timeout on that (using stream_context_create() stream_context_set_option() ), and then pass it to file_get_contents(). -- Richard Heyes HTML5 Canvas graphing for Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari: http://www.rgraph.net (Updated March 28th) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Question about template systems
Hi, First post here, I'm in the process of learning PHP , I'm digesting a few books as we speak. I'm working on a content heavy website that provides a lot of information, a template system would be great and so i've been looking at ways to create dynamic data with a static navigation system. So far, using the require_once(); function seems to fit the bill in order to bring in the same header html file on each page. I've also looked at Smartys template system. If you've looked at require_once() and it fits the bill, then chances are that Smarty might be overkill slightly. I wondered how you folk would go about creating a template system ? I wouldn't (or at least, I wouldn't advise it). Use one that's already out there and save your self some (a lot of) work. My second question might be me jumping the gun here, I haven't come across this part in my book but i'll ask about it anyway. I often see websites that have a dynamic body and static header, and their web addresses end like this: index.php?id=445 where 445 i presume is some file reference. What is this called ? I don't know of the specific name, but the URL is simply passing an identifier (445) to the script (index.php). This ID could be the ID of a record in a database, which is then retrieved and shown to the user. It seems like the system i'm after but it doesn't appear in my book, If anyone could let me know what this page id subject is called i can do some research on the subject. Erm, don't know of the specific name, except that it's a GET parameter (so I guess I do...). Everything following the question mark is collectively known as the query string. You can retrieve these by examining the $_GET variable. You will aalso find some useful things, in $_SERVER.

While using echo or downloading the file, the filename is showed as expected but as an attachment it is not properly encoded: Should be: PC-Beschaffung 2008 (nur für Lehre) Will be: US-ASCII''PC-Beschaffung%202008%20(nur%20f%C3%BCr%20Lehre) I think I have to encode the file name and already tried utf8encode but this didn't help.

Re: [PHP] Reverse IP lookup
Is there anyway to get a list of sitess that are on a specific IP? Not AFAIK. You can get the name associated with that IP adress (IIRC), but one IP could be serving multiple sites using virtual hosting. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 Canvas graphing for Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari: http://www.rgraph.org (Updated February 14th) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] paging
... Hi, Too lazy to actually read the email (tsk), but there's rather a nice paging library in PEAR that may help.

[PHP] PHP usage stats
Hi, Can anyone point out some general statistics on PHP usage compared to other server languages? I've tried Netcraft, but they only appear (or I've only found) to have statistics on the httpd server used.

Re: [PHP] PHP usage stats
Hi, Why anyone would see value in such a number is beyond me.

Re: [PHP] long echo statement performance question

Wouldn't have thought so. But for readability, you may find this a
little easier instead:
?
{$var1} Blah {$var2}
...
?php

Re: [PHP] Where does the sendmail() function come from?
Hi, A while back someone mentioned that I could use the sendmail() function like this: sendmail(envelope-from,envelope-to,mailtext) I'm now in the process of moving a site to a new webserver, and for some reason I haven't got a sendmail() any more. I can't find a reference to it in the manual, so where does it come from? Presumably it's either undocumented or user defined. get_defined_functions() will help you in determining that. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 Canvas graphing for Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari: http://www.rgraph.org (Updated January 31st) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
