Well, most probably you'll be able to find it inside your mysql/bin
directory.

Check the manual for more info:

  http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/mysqldump.html

And of course you can google for some related info ;)

If you have using a new php.ini file, perhaps you can compare it with an old
one and see if there's anything different--might give you a hint.

Or, you might want to check the manual about error reporting and see what
you can do about it:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-reporting.php

But then again, perhaps the problem is somewhere else... (i.e. file is not
there, permissions, etc.)

I think one way you can try is to use JavaScript's onClick() with
submit.form. There was a discussion on a similar subject ("passing js values

But, what if JavaScript is turned off?

  echo '';

shows a good view that you have a table with two columns.

If you'd like to sort these, then I think you might be able to do something
like this:
1. Instead of printf()'ing your 's or 's inside the class/function,
why don't you try "putting" it inside an array? (Maybe with array_push() or
something.) Then,
2. If you already have an array, perhaps you can use one of the functions
here for sorting:

Right, I might be typing faster than I am thinking... :)

Still, just make sure that PHP is using the php.ini file that you think it's
using. The file that _you_ check didn't change but _php_ might be looking
somewhere else... Of course, I could be wrong--haven't used
FreeBSD/Ports--only linux.

Putting a space (or some other character) after the character in question is
actually a good "workaround"--though not really a solution :(

Anyway, this kind of problem also exist with Chinese characters used in
Japanese (sjis encoding).

There could be various ways to handle this but here are some:
1. Try using a different encoding. Like utf-8 or some other Chinese
encoding. (In Japanese, you can use euc instead of sjis.)
2. Creating your own addslashes function for "escaping".

These are basically from the Japanese ML: (It's, of course, in Japanese.)

The patched version corrected some problems having to do with multi-byte
strings so it might just work for Chinese as well. There were also some
other info in the site I mentioned above but I'm afraid they're all in
Japanese so...

Anyway, I justed to post some ideas that might help.

I think you're in the right track.

Running these would produce different results:

$s = '0';
switch ($s){
  case ($s > chr(47) && $s < chr(58)):
echo 'Yehey!';
break;
  default:
echo 'Boo!';

$s = 0;
switch ($s){
  case ($s > chr(47) && $s < chr(58)):

echo 'Boo!';
}

Strange... (I mean it's strange that it worked before. I don't think that

I think what DL meant was to change "localhost" to

In that case you'll find that info by clicking Tools -> Account -> Mail ->

You can actually treat $str "like" an array so

  $str[0]

would be "i".

I'm not sure if I understand this correctly but don't you think you don't
need strlen($contents) up there? Also, try fopen($file,"wb").

And here,

...doing "$contents = substr($contents,$size+1);" would actually cause you
to lose some data.

Try this instead:

  if ($fp = fopen($file,"wb")): // add "b"
$size = 4096;
 while (strlen($contents)){
   $temp = substr($contents,0,$size);
   fwrite($fp,$temp); // remove $size
   $contents = substr($contents,$size);  // remove "+1"
 }
 fclose($fp);
  endif;

I didn't test so I'm not sure if it'll work--just some ideas...

If I understand the problem correctly and if my understanding of the
functions are correct, I'm not sure if you'd really need something like
this. Consider this:

";
  echo "GMT Timestamp: $timestamp_gmt";

  echo "This script was run on: ";
  echo "$run_local  (DATE with Local Timestamp)";
  echo "$run_gmt  (GMDATE with GMT Timestamp)";

?>

As you can see, although the timestamps are different, they produce the same
results. So, *I think*, using gmdate() and gmmktime() would be enough. (Or,
if you insist on using strtotime(), consider the example(s) in the "User
Contributed Notes" I mentioned earlier.)

I hope this give you some hints.

Interesting comments! ...not sure if I understood everything though :(

Anyway, for Justin's original problem, I think it'll be solve by "simply"
doing two things:
1. Add " GMT" to the end of the string being passed to strtotime().
2. Use gmdate() instead of date().

Ex.

 1039558389
  // without it, echo $my_stamp  --> 1039525989

  $my_stamp = strtotime($my_date);
  echo "$my_stamp";
  echo gmdate('D, d M Y G:i:s', $my_stamp);

  // Conclusion: Using strtotime() with GMT will create
  //   a timestamp that if used with gmdate() will produce
  //   desired result whichever timezone you run the script.

?>

That should work. If not, tell me about it later--I'm more than happy to be
corrected. But for now, I'll be taking some rest :)

The double quotes aren't really necessary unless
1. You have a comma in the field
2. You have double quotes in the field

So,

  1,foo,"Harry said ""what is it""",foo

would have no problem with fgetcsv().

I guess it's because the number is converted automatically to an exponential notation

Mmm, I'm not sure if I understand this correctly but I don't think PHP will "just 
decide" that your string IS a number and *formats* it.

Consider this:

';
  echo $var2; // echoes 

?>

As you can see, PHP didn't "touch" the string version...

Anyway, I don't think the conversion to an exponential notation is peculiar to PHP--my 
math teacher required me to do the same :)

Mmm, I don't think anything like that exists--at least, not yet. There are or no sites 
(or software) that can perfectly translate any entire site. And, don't expect anything 
that would translate your entire encyclopaedia automatically as well... :)

Well, for gettext's translations, I believe the translators are real humans (and 
they're native speakers) so you can expect a high quality translation that serves its 
purpose...

Just MHO,

Try this instead:

Well, first, increase the size of your field, say VARCHAR(100) then in your form, use 
"maxlength" like this:

  

That would prevent them from entering more that 50 characters. (At least, that's how 
it should work.) But, just to make sure, count the characters entered using strlen() 
or something before you use htmlspecialchars()...

Well, include() will parse the file--maybe you're just doing it the wrong way... ;)

I'm not sure how your customer_email.php looks like but consider this:

  

Then in inc.php you have:

  

Running the first script should echo:

  General PHP, how are you doing?

So, as you can see the $name was replaced.

Just a simple example...

I haven't had any "disk full error" experience so I'm not sure

I see. Well, in that case, you have another option. You can make 
an image that looks like a "button" and have that image link to

So, you still have a "blank" page? Check the resulting html source code 
and see how it looks like. Also, do you have "display_errors = On" in 
your php.ini?

Btw, see if changing this:

to this:

  echo $myrow["title"];

makes any difference.

Try having your  with a fixed width as well:

I think you also have to take note of your "cellspacing" and "

I think you'll save yourself from so much trouble if:
1. You just leave those long text. If they didn't press ENTER, it means 
that they were typing a looong paragraph, no?
2. Use the nl2br() function to make sure that those parts where they 
pressed ENTER (a newline), would be turn into .

Just my idea...

I'm not sure what you meant exactly by "accentuated" but if you mean 
single quotes (') then perhaps you can try "escaping" it using another 
single quote. (You can use str_replace() to replace one single quote 
character with two.)

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe you need to give more details...

I don't think so ;)

Probably...

Hmm, I guess I know what you're trying to say but *that* is NOT the 
normal behaviour (if I may say). Putting one long paragraph inside
 tags "should" automagically wrap it... If not, you can probably 
use CSS to limit the width of your 's (paragraphs) so it wouldn't 
destroy the "format" of your page.

Hmm... I'm not really sure if I understand this but...
First, NOT all "mail clients" will add this:

  - Original Message -

to the original message. Besides, there are many ways how each 
individual would quote the original message. So, writing a script
that would identify THE original messages would be, IMHO, next to
impossible...

What is the purpose anyway?
