[PHP-DEV] PHP file writing to static HTML file. PLEASE HELP

[Jonathan Moore]

hello,
i am in a bind..

i need to know how to make a dynamic php page write to a static html page.

example: a php file pulls info from a database, such as name and location.
once it grabs this information, it needs to write the data to a static html
file for archiving.

i have explored different file system objects and have ended up more
confused than i began..

if you have any help, please send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

thanks!!
Jon

[PHP-DEV] PHP Memory Error

[Jonathan Williams]

Could someone please help.  Running Linux 7.3 RH with 512 MB Ram with Apache
and PHP 4.  I receive the following error and was wondering if anyone had
any suggestions.  The error: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608
bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 35 bytes) in
/var/www/html/vc/test_fort/bootstrap.php on line 267.  Is there a server
setting eliminating the ability to allocate more memory.  Any suggestions
would be helpful.  You can reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as well.

Also it could be usefull in creating a wrapped & suid exec that would be

[PHP-DEV] domxml & Entity Ref Nodes

[Jonathan P Springer]

Greetings.

I discovered in domxml, that when using 'children' on an entity
reference node, the array returned is for the appropriate entity, plus
all entities after it in libxml's internal list of entities.

The patch below fixes this problem (but not too elegantly; if someone
wants to override 'children' instead, feel free...)

Re: [PHP-DEV] Extension checkins?

On Thu, 1 Nov 2001 18:25:52 -0600, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Matt McClanahan) wrote:
> Mentioning what it does may be a good start..

I have been in communication with the developer for DbTcp 
[http://www.fastflow.it/dbftp/], a proxy server for Windows ODBC connections.  I rely 
on PHP for production work and recently encountered a large client that needed a 
site to interface with their FoxPro database.  I scoured the web, including the PHP 
mailing lists, major code repositories and such.  I experimented with iODBC, unixODBC, 
ODBCSocketServer with unacceptable results.  I used 
ODBCSocketServer for a week until I discovered that it can't handle large result sets 
from the database.  DbTcp is a similiar setup to ODBCSocketServer, in that you run a 
service on the Windows machine that communicates through 
TCP/IP.  It doesn't seem to have the limitations of other software (in that it is 
handling 233,000 row result sets without a problem), it is currently GPL, and is in 
active development.

The current distribution of DbTcp comes with a PHP extension and this week I've spent 
some time in communication with the author in bringing the extension up to speed.  
We've debugged some issues, rounded out the memory 
management better, we're allowing for persistent connections now, and it's becoming 
par with the other PHP database extensions.  I know much could still be done to 
libdbftp to ensure it is cross-platform, but I have it performing well 
on both a Linux box and a FreeBSD box.

I'm not trying to market this extension, or make it sound like the answer to 
everything.  I'm not sure what the general need for an ODBC bridge is.  For unixODBC, 
I know Easysoft's ODBC-ODBC bridge sells for $400-$5600 depending 
on the license.  I think that's an indication of the need.

The author, Giussani Cristian, has opened a public project at SourceForge 
[http://sourceforge.net/projects/dbtcp/] and checked the source code in.  I'm 
interested in any feedback concerning the module itself and a possible place 
as an extension included in the PHP distribution.  I'd certainly like to see the 
project progress into public view, so other people aren't banging their heads against 
other projects that are still unstable.

Much appreciated,

Jonathan

[PHP-DEV] Extension checkins?

[Jonathan Gillette]

Hi.  I'm aware of an extension that would fit quite nicely into the current set.  
What's the protocol for proposing a entry into the extension repository?

Thanks,

Ok I checked there but I don't really see an answer!? Status is still open although

Hi, I would very much like to see you add the imagecopyresizedbicubic function to the 
list of PHP/GD functions (as described in the user comments of the imagecopyresized 
function docs) to a new release of PHP. I don't know if you are already planning this 
(I couldn't find anything on it), but judging by the size of the newsgroup archives on 
this topic I think I am not the only one. It really is a great function to create 
thumbnails from uploaded images.

I hope to hear from you soon and thank you for PHP!
