[PHP] Using two XSLT stylesheets
I'm working on a read only database. I have the data encoded as XML and am writing the queries using XSLT stylesheets. The only way I can find (being, of course, restricted to XSLT 1.0 on PHP) of executing the required queries requires two stylesheets. The generates a result tree which needs to be proceesed by the second. But I can't find a way of doing this. I've tried: xslt_process($xh, 'library.xml', 'simple-search-get-results.xsl', --> 'results.xml', NULL, $params); $data = xslt_process($xh, 'results.xml', --> 'simple-search-display-results.xsl', NULL, NULL, NULL); and: $results = xslt_process($xh, 'library.xml', 'simple-search-get-results.xsl', --> NULL, NULL, $params); $data = xslt_process($xh, $results, 'simple-search-display-results.xsl', --> NULL, NULL, NULL); neither of which work at all. Any ideas? Cheers, rich. -- UEA/MUS::Record Library http://www.cursus.uea.ac.uk/cdlib/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It appears the the second call is working fine: the file 'results.xml' exists already becasue I've been using a command line XSL processor to test the stylesheets.

[PHP] Re: Using two XSLT stylesheets
OK,
This is my latest idea to try and do this:
$xh = xslt_create();
parse_str($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
$params = array("keywords" => $keywords);
$results = xslt_process($xh, 'library.xml', 'simple-search.xsl', NULL, NULL,
-->$params);
$f = fopen('results.xml','w');
fwrite($f, $results);
fclose($f);
$data = xslt_process($xh, 'results.xml', 'display-results.xsl', NULL, NULL,
-->NULL);
echo $data;
xslt_free($xh);
But, of course, it just throws up messages saying I can't write to
results.xml!
See http://www.cursus.uea.ac.uk/cdlib/ for error messages in action (search
terms which will find records include 'Boulez', 'Messiaen').
Does anyone know why:
xslt_process($xh, 'sample.xml', 'sample.xsl', 'result.xml')
doesn't work? (lifted straight from the manual)
Cheers,
Rich

$display_xsl_file = "display-results.xsl";
$library_xml_string = join('', file($library_xml_file));

$display_xsl_string = join('', file($display_xsl_file));
$arg_buffer = array("/xml" => $library_xml_string, "/xslt" =>

$xh = xslt_create();
$results_xml_string = xslt_process($xh, "arg:/xml", "arg:/xslt", NULL,
$arg_buffer, $params);
xslt_free($xh);
$arg_buffer = array("/xml" => $results_xml_string, "/xslt" =>

[PHP] PHP with Frames (cont.)

[PHP] Persisting MySQL connection accross scripts
How can I establish a connection with a MySQL database and have it persist accross multiple script files? I've found the mysql_pconnect() function but this doesn't seem to do the job - which is fairly logical actually because the connection is stored in a variable: $connect = mysql_pconnect(); and that variable $connection won't be available in another script. I would have thought there would be a straightforward answer to this as it seems that its someting which must be done fairly regularly. The only workaround I can think of is sending the username, password and database name to every script. But how would you do this securely? When establishing the initial connection I got the username and password from a form which used the method="POST" method. But if I want to have a link to a script, say 'add_item.php', how can I do it securely? would not use the POST method. I could use forms for every link but this seems ridiculously over-complicated!

RE: [PHP] using cookies
Ken Do *not* use hidden form statements or cookies to store any SQL this is extremely dangerous and a relatively simple hack could destroy your database completely! By all means use hidden form fields to store row ID values but your PHP scripts should treat all user input data via $_GET/$_POST/$_COOKIE/$_FILES as hostile and you should be rigorous in validating that data coming into your script is as you would expect... Having said that it seems your server has magic_quotes_gpc() switched on - this automatically escapes all incoming data that could upset a SQL query i.e. the quotes - you can remove them by using stripslashes() or switch off magic quotes in your php.ini file. But I would repeat *don't* continue down the path you are going unless you like being hacked!

You can then use that to look up their information in a database table and deal with their profile accordingly.

Hello!
I'm currently doing some work that requires a mySQL database of actor
names. For all my actors, I have three columns; first_name, last_name and
between_name. Because between_name can be written in many ways ("Peter van
Wibble" or "Fred d'Angelo), and the French have a habit of writing their
surnames in capitals, I wrote a little function to prepare the actor names
for output:
Thing is, I'm getting bizarre behaviour where some characters become
modified in a way I don't like - in particular, when the letter L follows
an E with a diaresis (Raphaël, for example) it becomes upper case.
Suggestions, anyone?
And if anyone wants to make that code shorter and more readable, I'd
appreciate it greatly. :-)

Not quite clear on your problem - did you run an ALTER TABLE on your MySQL
table or just an INSERT of a new row? Assuming it was the former, all I can
say is look at the code that populates the $cat_array variable to see if the
underlying query would have been affected by the alter table command...
Does the query that populates $cat_array run OK if executed directly in

Hi all,
I have set-up a production server and a live server. The problem is with
the production server. I am using PHP version 4.2.3 and MySQL 3.23.39 on
both servers. We have just configured the production server to mimick
the live server (which incidentally works fine) and the code from both
servers is identical. I dumped all the data into the production MySQL
database then copied the code from the live server to our production one
and there didn't seem to be any problems. However today my boss asked
for a new category to go into our webshop with a new product. I went
into MySQL and updated the database fine then when I went to check the
section of the site to see if the extra category and product are there I
get my own PHP encoded error 'No categories currently available'. It
fails on the first function:
function display_categories($cat_array)
{
//display all categories in the array passed in
if (!is_array($cat_array))
{
echo "No categories currently available.";
}
else
{
//create table
echo "";
etc.
Now it works superbly on my live server and did work fine until I tried
adding another field to the database on the production server. Where
should I start looking to de-bug this?

Subject: [PHP] PHP and MySQL queries
Hi,
I am having a real problem with variables in PHP and trying to query my
MySQL database. I have a form that a user inputs information and then that
info is used to query my database, but it's not working. I don't get any
errorrs and it appears every thing worked, but nothing gets displayed (see
code below). I know the info is getting passed from the form as it appears
correct in the address bar of my browser. The query below also works if I
use the command line in MySQL and hard code the information.
Any help is appreciated.
http://etc/etc?FromTrade=TRUE&name=1&from=2
$query = "select tmanager.idn, tmanager.total, troster.idp, user, position,
points from troster join treference
join tmanager where tmanager.idn=treference.idn and
treference.idp=troster.idp and tmanager.name like '$name' and
troster.player like '$from'";
$results = mysql_query($query) or die("Query failed");
while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($results, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
echo $line[idn];
echo $line[total];
echo $line[idp];
echo $line[position];
echo $line[points];
This just displays an empty page. So it appears the query found nothing, but
like I said, it works from the command line and there should be one entry
(see below). So I have to assume it is a problem with the variables.

| idn | total | idp | user | position | points |

| 1 | 746.75 | 2 | Trevor | F| 45.00 |

Subject: [PHP] Form Validating Class (OOP misunderstandings...)
Hello everybody,
I'm working on a class but having a lot of problems... probably my
understanding of PhP-OOP is not so good ...
Here's the class: I found it on the web and I've tried to personalize
it to fit my needs...
reset_errorList();
}
function getValue( $field )
{
$value = $HTTP_POST_VARS[ $field ];
return $value;
}
function isEmpty( $field, $msg )
{
$value = $this->getValue( $field );
if( trim( $value ) == "" )
{
$this->errorList[] = array( "field" => $field,
"value" => $value, "msg" => $msg );
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
function isString( $field, $msg )
{
$value = $this->getValue( $field );
if( is_string( $value ) )
return true;
else
{
$this->errorList[] = array( "field" => $field,
"value" => $value, "msg" => $msg );
return false;
}
}
function isEmail( $field, $msg )
{
$value = $this->getValue( $field );
$pattern =
"/^([a-zA-Z0-9])*@([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)+/";
if( preg_match( $pattern, $value ) )
return true;
else
{
$this->errorList[] = array( "field" => $field,
"value" => $value, "msg" => $msg );
return false;
}
}
function isError()
{
if( sizeof( $this->errorList ) > 0 )
return true;
else
return false;
}
function get_errorList()
{
return $this->errorList;
}
function reset_errorList()
{
$this->errorList = array();
}
function stringConvert( $field )
{
$value = $this->getValue( $field );
$value = html_special_chars( $value );
$value = stripslashes( $value );
$value = strtolower( $value );
return $value;
}
};
?>
Ok.
I think that the getter is *totally* wrong but I'm not able to debug
it, because it's private (I think...). Also the stringConvert() method
sucks, maybe I'll split it in some others accessor methods, for a
better design.
Now I'm totally lost, I don't have a clue how to continue, I've tried
for hours and hours to make it work, but didn't succeed :(
Any suggestion on improving and other enhancment for a good form
validating class is really really appreciated.
TIA,

IIRC this is a known bug with IIS (not PHP) when it gets the http redirect
it junks the cookie - sorry I can't remember much more detail than that...
Workaround maybe is to spit out an HTML based META refresh redirect tag

Why does this cookie not get set?

This really belongs on the MySQL list but there was a known issue with
RAND() on 3.23.54 - can you upgrade? If your table has an auto_increment ID
column then a workaround would be to use rand() in PHP to generate a random
ID then use that with a 'where id = '.$id in your query...

Hi Diksha
Some comments...
. Your string variable needs to be defined and referenced as $string not
just string - unless this is a typo in your post
. fwrite() returns an int - you are assigning this int to $contents - what
exactly are you expecting $contents to be set to?
. Does your user or web server process have the permissions to create files
in the directory?
. What does readfile('sandrew.html'); after your fclose($fp) return?

[PHP] Case Sensitivity
I've had a web site under development on my Win2k box at home. I built and tested everything with PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 1.3.24. Now, I have transitioned everything up to my host who is using a Linux box, PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 1.3.26. One of the pages I designed has code that retrieves a list of thumbnails from a directory name passed into the page then embeds a hyperlink to a full size version of the thumbnail. Incidentally, the full size version is in the same directory as the thumbnail and has a very similar filename: tn_01.jpg and 01.jpg (guess which one's the thumbnail). Here's the problem: When I run the page on the web host's server, the link to the full size image dies. I've tracked the problem to the case of the linked filename. Basically, unless the filename in the href matches the case of the target file, the link dies and I get that nice, little red X indicating the link to the image is broken. For example, the target image DSC01.JPG _MUST_ be referenced in the href as: href='../path/to/resource/DSC01.JPG' If I reference it as href='../path/to/resource/dsc01.jpg' the target image won't show up. I have temporarily resolved the issue by designating the filename used in the href as upper case using the strtoupper() function, but I can't believe that's the way it's SUPPOSED to be done. What I'd like to know is does the Linux server introduce case-sensitivity issues? It doesn't seem to matter with the elements of the path, just the target filename. Help is appreciated.

RE: [PHP] Session data getting lost
Jay Thanks, but no I don't think so ... session_register() is deprecated ... Quote PHP manual: Caution: If you want your script to work regardless of register_globals, you need to instead use the $_SESSION array as $_SESSION entries are automatically registered. If your script uses session_register(), it will not work in environments where the PHP directive register_globals is disabled.

Yes, however I was simply asking Chris to explain to me more as it didn't make sense to me (because I hadn't read the manual fully). I mistakenly expected the $_SESSION array to hold copies of assigned data not references to the global namespace variable ... my expectations were based on PHP's current default behaviour of pass by copy rather than by reference.

(Sorry, I inadvertently sent an incomplete post) I have a popup window, itemSelect.php, from which I would like to reload the calling page. itemSelect.php has a form, and I want to reload the calling page with these form variables. How can I do this? I can reload the page easily enough, with this test code in itemSelect.php: Not surprisingly, this doesn't work. My calling page reloads and the popup closes, but the onClick code bypasses the form and newparam doesn't get passed. What, please, is a good way to accomplish passing newparam (and other form vars) back to the calling page?

[PHP] Opening new browser window
I would like to open a new browser window from within my php script (edit.php), a window in which another php page is run (search.php). search.php should be able to receive $_POST vars etc. from edit.php. I am not sure that the javascript solution to popup a window is correct, because then the popup does not behave normally. By normally, I mean that when I use javascript to popup a new window (search.php), and in search.php I have a form > > clicking OK or Cancel does absolutely nothing. So, I would like to avoid javascript and simply open a new browser window to run search.php. What is the accepted way to do this in php? tia, Rich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Opening new browser window
And if you are not in a form? My current code is: where popup is my javascript function. But as I said below, the popup doesn't work as expected and I do not want to use javascript. I can also not be in a form. Suggestions?

[PHP] popups, parents, parameters, and php
I have been asking specific questions, and getting helpful answers, but I realized I am getting ahead of myself and thinking about the trees when I don't see the forest yet. I would like to describe what it is I want to do in general, and then hopefully you can point me in the right direction so I use html, php, and javascript together in some kind of reasonable way. I feel like I am re-inventing the wheel, and badly. What I want to do must have been done a zillion times by other web programmers already. I have a php page (edit.php) with a form with some text fields and a select menu (select1). I want users to be able to add entries to the select1 menu, and would like to use a popup window to do this. In the popup window, the user is presented with a form with a select menu of all possible entries. The user can make multiple selections from this list in the popup, and when the popup's form is submitted, I want the select1 menu in edit.php to reflect these additional entries selected from the popup. Those are the requirements. Should be easy, but I am finding it very difficult to tie the pieces together. Any advice or url of a relevant tutorial would be greatly appreciated.

[PHP] Re: popups, parents, parameters, and php
my colleague just suggested that my popup, on the form submit, can call another page which just registers the items selected as session variables. This seems like a good idea. Of course, I will have to reload the original calling page, edit.php, so it can check those session varibles and amend the select1 list. I am going to try this, but I would still greatly appreciate any advice.

Sorry, we have a Eugene Lee at my aikido school and it's such an unusual
name I thought you might be him.

[PHP] using a php variable in javascript
I have a page with the following code:
<!--
so = window.open('','CompanyEdit');
so.location.reload();
window.close();
// -->
I have 'CompanyEdit' hardcoded, but what I want instead is something like:
so = window.open('','$callerWin');
This does not work, of course, but you get the idea: I want to use the value
of the $callerWin php variable in my javascript. Can someone tell me the
syntax for this? My reading of the documentation and trial-and-error have
not met with success.
thanks,
Rich

[PHP] for loop break and continue
Hi, Is there an equivalent to the C++ 'break' command to stop execution of a for loop? I know I can use 'goto' but I don't want to unless I have to. for ($i=0; $i<$n; $i++) if (some condition) break; And, what about 'continue' which skips the rest of the code in the for loop and immediately goes on to the next iteration?
