RE: [PHP] [OT-ish] Optional Extras.
off the top of my head, you could try using a "lookup table" to define the extra options... ford_spec table: id desc --- --- 1 air conditioning 2 whatever ford_cars table: car extra1 extra2 -- --- - 'contour' 1 0 'probe' 0 1 "contour" would have "aircond" but no "whatever" "probe" would have no "aircond" but would have "whatever" so to add more options specific to a manufacturer, you could make an entry into "ford_spec" and then create an "extra3" field in "ford_cars"... this system, at least, would enable you to have as many extras as you wanted for each manufacturer, and have different options available for different manufacturers. i dont know how efficient this would be, and there are probably a bunch of better ways to do it, but i've seen this method used before by someone who developed a batteries catalog and needed to store different manufacturers with different options for their batteries. > -Original Message- > From: Dave Mariner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, June 25, 2001 12:54 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP] [OT-ish] Optional Extras. > > > Please excuse me if you consider this to be off-topic, but this is the best > place I can think of to ask the (slightly long-winded) question. > > Imagine you have a car database (MySQL driven).

Re: [PHP] date -> day
mktime can be pretty useful :
$year = 2001;
$month = 6;
$day = 1;
print date('l',mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$year));
as it creates a unix timestamp, and date() appreciates that.

Hello all, I have a slight problem that someone out there might be able to help me with. I recently installed Windows 2000 with Internet Information Server 5.0 and php 4.0.7-dev.

I then did, => Properties => Home Directory => Choose the checkbox a"A share located on another computer" Here I supplied the samba server share and the correct user, webbert.

RE: [PHP] Session-problems in linux
I had EXACTLY the same problem about a month a go, but using IIS on Win2k.
The session file contains only ":foo|", so it's just the same.
There are a couple of things to check:
1. Make sure the browser is receiving the cookie.
2. Make sure the browser is returning the cookie (should appear using
phpinfo()).
3. Make sure a file named with the value of the PHPSESSID cookie exists on
the server.
I solved the problem by turning off session.auto_start on php.ini and then
using the following code to start the session:
function MySetCookie
($CkyName, $CkyVal, $exp, $pth, $Domain)
{
$exp = strftime("%A, %d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S", $exp);
$cookiestr = sprintf ("%s=%s; domain=%s; path=%s; expires=%s",
$CkyName, $CkyVal, $Domain, $pth, $exp);
$mycky = (isset($mycky) ? "$mycky\n" : "")."Set-Cookie: $cookiestr";
header($mycky);
}
session_start();
MySetCookie("PHPSESSID",session_id(),0, "/", "");
Make sure this code appears before any header is sent, that is, before any session,
cookie or header instruction.
If you do all this and still have the same problem, try registering each session
variable that you are going to use just after starting the session. I don't know why,
but sometimes PHP requires all session variables registered before you can access
their values.
Hope it's been of some help.
Cheers,
Diego.

Subject: [PHP] Session-problems in linux
Hi everyone,
I can't get the sessions working in linux.
I changed:
/usr/local/lib/php.ini session.auto_start = 1
so when the browser go to the page, a cookie is recieved.
In the /tmp-dir a file is created and everything looks great.
However, when I register a variable and set it to a value,
only the name, not the value is stored. I've tried to store
strings, arrays, integers but no luck.
I do:
session_register("foo");
$foo="Great day";
and the file will only contain ":foo|" with no accompanying value.
I'm really stuck here, and everything works fine in windows
but not in RH7.1. I would be very greatful for any hints here.

RE: [PHP] [OT-ish] Optional Extras.
Dave,
I did something similar and I came up with an interesting way of
approaching it:
Assign IDs to each car (obviously).
Assign an ID to each option.
Match up your car IDs and option IDs in a seperate table.
Here's some table defs:
create table cars (
carid int auto_increment,
namevarchar(255)
);
create table options (
optid int auto_increment,
namevarchar(255)
);
create table caroptions (
carid int,
optid int
);
(if my sql is off, don't flame me, you at least get the idea)
Here's the search:
$words should be a comma delimited list if the options the user chose.
select count(o.carid) as cnt, o.carid as id, c.name from caroptions as o,
cars as c where and o.optid in ({$words}) and o.carid = c.carid group by
o.carid, c.name order by cnt DESC
This would give you a list of cars ordered by the best match to worst match.
again - this is all off the top of my head, I'm sure it's not word for word
correct.

Subject: [PHP] [OT-ish] Optional Extras.
Please excuse me if you consider this to be off-topic, but this is the best
place I can think of to ask the (slightly long-winded) question.
Imagine you have a car database (MySQL driven). Different models have
different optional extras (air-con, central locking, immobiliser etc). I
need to store the optional extras in a searchable form - i.e. the customer
may have a wish-list of electric windows, aircon, and power steering.
However the optional extras list is not and will not be finalised when the
system goes live (probably will never be finalised!). Therefore I cannot do
the quick-and-dirty hack of putting all the options as binary fields in my
car database, so must come up with a more elegant solution. I've thought of
storing e.g. 10 tuples car.option1->aircon code, car.option2->powersteering
code. etc. and also going down the header-detail route.
My current quandry is to which is going to be better for the search
aspect, considering I'd also like to give them a "best fit" option. Would it
be to create a cursor on my fixed criterion (price, age etc) and then
iterate through each of those manually in my php script (see - it isn't
entirely off topic ;0) ) counting the matches for that record in the
optional-extra detail table? Or would it be to do a select where
(optionalextra1=mychoice1 or optionalextra2 = mychoice1 ..) and
(optionalextra2=mychoice2 or optionalextra2 = mychoice2.. ) and etc
etc (yeuch!).
I have a sneaking suspicion that there's a more elegant way than either
of these, but can't think of it at the moment.
If you come up with the solution there's a beer in it for you the next
time you're in Paphos, Cyprus!
Thanks in advance,
Dave.

[PHP] strange behavior on manipulating the array of class object
Hello.
I'm new to this list, and I once looked over the archives,
but the problem like this might not have been proposed, so I ask...
please see the code below
sorry to be too long.
(the result of this code is supposed to be seen with HTML browser)
cls = array();
}
function add( $cls ) {
array_push ( $this->cls, $cls );
}
function one() {
reset( $this->cls );
while( $obj = current( $this->cls ) ) {
print 'foo->one() invokes '.get_class( $obj
)."->one()\n";
$obj->one();
next( $this->cls );
}
}
function two() {
reset( $this->cls );
while( $obj = current( $this->cls ) ) {
print 'foo->two() invokes '.get_class( $obj
)."->two()\n";
$obj->two();
next( $this->cls );
}
}
}
class bar
{
var $some;
function bar() {
$this->some = 'set in constructor (
this value was expected to be changed at foo->one() ) ';
}
function one() {
$this->some = 'modified';
}
function two() {
print 'bar->two->some = '.$this->some."";
}
}
$fubar = new foo();
$fubar->add( new bar() );
$fubar->add( new bar() );
$foo = new foo();
$foo->add( $fubar );
$foo->one();
$foo->two();
?>
and the results should have been like
foo->one() invokes foo->one()
foo->one() invokes bar->one()
foo->one() invokes bar->one()
foo->two() invokes foo->two()
foo->two() invokes bar->two()
bar->two->some = modified
foo->two() invokes bar->two()
bar->two->some = modified
but you probably obtain
foo->one() invokes foo->one()
foo->one() invokes bar->one()
foo->one() invokes bar->one()
foo->two() invokes foo->two()
foo->two() invokes bar->two()
bar->two->some = set in constructor ( this value was expected to be changed at
foo->one() )
foo->two() invokes bar->two()
bar->two->some = set in constructor ( this value was expected to be changed at
foo->one() )

Is the string in your plain text file enclosed in single-quotes by any
chance?

Where's the difference to directly doing the following: $a = "whatever"; $b = "abc $a def"; echo $b; which results in "abc whatever def" ??? What am I missing?

[PHP] Accessing a Berkeley DB V1.85 using PHP V4.0.5
Hello I am trying to access a Berkeley database V1.85 using PHP V4.0.5 (on Windows 2000) without success. I have tried the dbmopen() routines and dba_open(..., ..., "dbm") routines. dbmopen() etc. are successful but the results suggest that they do not support this database format. The dba_open() routine returns 'Warning: no such handler: dbm in "dba.php" on line 26'. php_db.dll and php_dba.dll are dynamically loaded. 1) Is DB1 another name for Berkeley DB 1.x? 2) Which database routines do I need to use? 3) Alternatively, can I use mysql V3.23 to manage the berkeley DB? I did not find any useful information in this regard. 4) I wish to avoid converting the database format if at all possible. 5) The database is a Redhat Source Navigator project. Any help offered would be greatly appreciated.

[PHP] shared object not open
Hi, I am just starting with PHP, I installed the new version on my Suse 7.1 with apache 1.3.14, because I need a tool for accessing databases (Informix/Oracle). Everything seemed fine, until I tried to start apache, it told me: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so into server: shared object not open All my investigations showed me a very "kind" member of bug.php.net, who told someone else, that this isn't a bug and we should connect the mailing-lists. He generously had a hint : /etc/ld.so.conf and ldconfig. In the archive of the mailing lists I found the same informations ( a little bit more informative), but my ld.so.conf is o.k. and at this point any help stops. I hope, that someone found out what's happening here and helps me. So I have: Intel Celreon 366 on Asus Mainboard, 256 MB RAM, Adaptec 2940UW with all together 20GB HD, 5 swap-Areas with 128MB each. SuSE 7.1 Prof-Edition, from this distribution I installed apache and PHP (everything working fine, but no idea how to activate informix/oracle-support) Apache says, PHP4-module installed.

[PHP] Authentication
Hi, I know it doesn't have a lot to do with PHP, and then again... I'm trying to get PHP authentication to work on an IIS 5.0 server. The thing is, the server is not sending my desired headers. The script, I'm using, works perfectly. I've tested that, on an Apache server online. Works brilliantly. ;) What do I need to do to get it working, apart from adding the entry for the ISAPI filters, using the php4isapi.dll? Do I need a registry entry somewhere? I've read about that somewhere. Can it work when using the php.exe(or CGI-version)?(using the ISAPI dll version is not working either, although I've read the install file over and over again...) I can get PHP to work, using the cgi(or exe) version of PHP, although I don't think, I can get PHP authentication to work this way. Correct me if I'm wrong here. In other words, how do I configure my IIS to get PHP working with PHP authentication? tnx Brave Cobra -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[PHP] [OT-ish] Optional Extras.
Please excuse me if you consider this to be off-topic, but this is the best place I can think of to ask the (slightly long-winded) question. Imagine you have a car database (MySQL driven). Different models have different optional extras (air-con, central locking, immobiliser etc). I need to store the optional extras in a searchable form - i.e. the customer may have a wish-list of electric windows, aircon, and power steering. However the optional extras list is not and will not be finalised when the system goes live (probably will never be finalised!). Therefore I cannot do the quick-and-dirty hack of putting all the options as binary fields in my car database, so must come up with a more elegant solution. I've thought of storing e.g. 10 tuples car.option1->aircon code, car.option2->powersteering code. etc. and also going down the header-detail route. My current quandry is to which is going to be better for the search aspect, considering I'd also like to give them a "best fit" option. Would it be to create a cursor on my fixed criterion (price, age etc) and then iterate through each of those manually in my php script (see - it isn't entirely off topic ;0) ) counting the matches for that record in the optional-extra detail table? Or would it be to do a select where (optionalextra1=mychoice1 or optionalextra2 = mychoice1 ..) and (optionalextra2=mychoice2 or optionalextra2 = mychoice2.. ) and etc etc (yeuch!). I have a sneaking suspicion that there's a more elegant way than either of these, but can't think of it at the moment. If you come up with the solution there's a beer in it for you the next time you're in Paphos, Cyprus!

RE: [PHP] Help with simple regular expression
exactly. use the non-greedy "?" with the perl regex's
to have perl match the least amount of characters it can.
preg_match('//', $text, $matches)
in the case of perl regexp's, you have to specifically
tell the regexp not to be greedy. the "?" regexp modifier
is how you do this. (otherwise, the regexp will try and
match the maximum amount of text that it can, which
usually isnt what you want, since it'll match *eveything*
between "blah" and the last occurance of ">" in the text)
so, in the case of this text:
sasfd asdf asdf
the greedy will match something like this:
now>
sasfd asdf asdf
and the non-greedy will match something like this:
now

Maybe I can access the db via php like a >text file? Why do you need DNS? If an IP number is needed for ODBC connectivity to work you can just use localhost (127.0.0.1) for development, retrieving the value from an include file. On your production machine you use a file with the same name, but with the appropriate IP number. OR - Do you mean DSN -- Data Source Name? If so you can establish that on your local Windows machines, and your ISP will certainly have to give you one for database access on their server. The DSN can be passed to the PHP odbc_connect call as a variable. Same as for IP numbers as above. Go to www.php.net and check which databases are supported. They are listed alphabetically in the manual. There's a double whammy here - the manual reflects the current version, your ISP may be a couple of versions behind. I believe you will find direct support for Access, but again your ISP has to have compiled it in for it to function. The beauty of ODBC is that you have a more portable interface you can take to other databases. Yes you can use a text file, but it's more likely that your ISP supports MySQL which will give you good results with a guestbook app. With a text file you will end up with a lot of sequential reads - a real performance killer. >There are many question I have, sorry if this description isn't precise >enough.

Re: [PHP] Batch Coding Help Please
Hi,
I do the following in a similar case:
- I have a table with the emails to send (the addresses)
- I run a PHP script as a cronjob every X minutes (15 in my case)
- the script sends up to 1000 e-mail and delete the corresponding entry from the
table for each e-mail sent (you may want to simply mark as "sent" an
address if it is the case).
This work fine for me.
Cheers,
Gianluca

As far as I know, this is not possible. You can, however, create a new array and copy all values except the deleted one from the old array, for example with two array_slice() calls.

Re: [PHP] php still not working
Do you restart Apache after making changes to httpd.conf? You can use 'path/to/apache/bin/apachectl restart' to do this. Just a thought.

[PHP] Batch Coding Help Please
Hi,
I am building a custom e-mailer for one of my websites using PHP and MySQL, I
know there are loads out there already but my goal here is to learn this
coding myself so I can modify it to my needs as and when they change.
My list only has around 5000 subscribers at the moment and I have heard that
with large lists like this it is ideal to batch send the emails. So my
question is how do you batch code?
This is the code I have in place at the moment
$query=mysql_db_query($dbase,"SELECT * FROM Subscribers, Members where
Subscribers.ListID='$ID' and Members.MID=Subscribers.MemberID");
$num_rows=mysql_num_rows($query);
for ($i=0; $i<$num_rows; $i++)
{
mysql_data_seek($query, $i);
$array=mysql_fetch_array($query);
$Email="$array[Email]";
mail($Email, $MsgTitle, "$Message\n\n\n$Content", $Header);
}

Re: [PHP] PHP Uptime error
Check the permissions on the files in /proc, which is where uptime gets its info from, most likely. You could probably even read the pseudo-file '/proc/loadavg' as 'nobody' directly from PHP given the appropriate file permissions. - Tim http://www.phptemplates.org > Richard Lynch's advice was correct, I cannot run uptime under nobody for > some reason.

Re: [PHP] PHP Uptime error
Does anyone know if it's possible to capture TCP_TIMESTAMP using a socket.
If you could do that you wouldn't need to execute /usr/bin/uptime

[PHP] php still not working
Trying a re-post from yesterday... My setup is as follows: RH Linux 7.0 PHP 4.0.5 Apache 1.3.20 I've either added or uncommented the following lines from httpd.conf: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps and to mime.types: application/x-httpd-php php phtml pht Adding a LoadModule won't work because I didn't compile as a module. I've seen some posts about AddHandler for PHP3, so I tried adding the following to the .conf file: AddHandler php-script .php having no idea whether this syntax was correct or not since the only example I found in the archuves refered to v. 3. So I still get the html/php code showing up in my browser with no interpretation by PHP. Any suggestions (with the exception of "Hey, maybe you should stick with Windows") are greatly appreciated.

Yeah ... apart from that, www.postfix.org is also a winner. Why not download it and have a look? Basically, you need to replace sendmail with postfix.

Re: [PHP] ->>coding help
Oh yeah: I forgot:
*AFTER* the loop, you need to add another spurious .
You'll have an empty row with no TD's in it, and the browser won't even put
in a blank line or anything.
Just spew out an extra at the end and call it done.

When you checked uptime via telnet, were you logged in as "nobody", or
whomever PHP runs as?... If not, you haven't really duplicated the
circumstances where PHP exists.
I can't think why "nobody" wouldn'y be allowed to do "uptime", but maybe
there's some security issue involved. Too bad those load numbers aren't
right though :-)
You may have to resort to creating a suid shell script with some "real" user
as owner for PHP to be able to run it to do uptime. See "man suid" for
details.
BE CAREFUL. A mis-configured suid script is a security risk. Actually,
that's like saying a sucking chest wound is a "cut" :-^

Using Microsoft :-) IIRC, the deal is this -- When PHP went to version 4, the threading stuff got real, but MS doesn't have real threads, so "forking" to run exec() and whatnot just plain isn't going to work. PHP could let you try, but you'd pretty much crash PHP and/or whatever you forked, which in Microsoft-land means crashing the whole machine requiring a re-boot.

If you compiled as a stand-alone binary (aka CGI) you don't want AddHandler, you want "Action".

You'll need the fdf toolkit from Adobe -- fdf being something like PDF, only the first F is for "Form". You'll also need to re-compile PHP to include support for fdf/PDF after you've installed fdf.

PHP only kicks in because the web-server (Apache or IIS or Xitami or OmniHTTP or whatever) sees the .php extension and hands off the file to PHP. If your browser is looking directly at a PHP file, there's no web-server involved, so nobody "knows" to fire up PHP. If you're trying to do some development on your Win98 box, you'll have to install some sort of web-server. Apache is free, painless to install, and in all other respects, superior to all the other options :-) http://apache.org After you install Apache, you'll need to edit the "httpd.conf" file to make Apache aware that you are using PHP, and then you'll need to surf to your own little web-server using: http://127.0.0.1/whatever.php 127.0.0.1 is always the computer you are using. -- WARNING [EMAIL PROTECTED] address is an endangered species -- Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wanna help me out?

Re: [PHP] Running scripts from within PHP similar to SSI
If you are running PHP as a Module (you should be) try the
http://php.net/virtual function.
If not, you can use exec(), but pass any vars the thing needs:
# Your CGI may be expecting command-line args or flags or...
# I presumed it was URL-style input.
exec("./cgi-bin/txtcounter.cgi?foo=$foo&bar=$bar", $results, $error);
while(list(,$line) = each($results)){
echo $line, "\n";
}
if ($error){
echo "txtcounter.cgi returned OS error $error. Usually
paths/permissions.\n";
}

$rowcount = 0;

while (list($whatever) = mysql_fetch_row($result)){
echo "$whatever\n";
$rowcount++;
if ($rowcount % 2 == 0){

Change the 2 to other number for more columns.

Almost for sure you don't have the include_path set properly for PHP to *find* the files, and Apache (which handles the Auth stuff) is not involved in any way, shape, or form. Your include_path is set in php.ini, plus any dynamic changes made in httpd.conf and/or .htaccess files using: php_value include_path "./:/path/to/your/home/dir/here:/any/more/paths/you/like/here" -- WARNING [EMAIL PROTECTED] address is an endangered species -- Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wanna help me out?

Yes. :-) Odds are pretty good that you can count on network activity to screw this up sooner or later, no matter how big that buffer might be. Add some code to guesstimate how long it ought to take, double it and add 30 (metric time)* and use the time_limit function. Or use 0 time limit, and pray you never mess up the code that spews all that to the browser. In any situation like this, the time to add a little code to anticipate a problem is almost always a "win". * If you don't understand why double it and add 30 is metric time, you need to buy Bob&Doug's _Great_White_North album. -- WARNING [EMAIL PROTECTED] address is an endangered species -- Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wanna help me out?

I could be wrong, and often am :-), but I believe that PHP4 "knows" about MySQL resources, and if you don't have any variables capable of accessing them any more (IE, you did unset($result)), then it's smart enough to do the mysql_free_result for you... This is, however, no excuse for you not writing less sloppy code in the first place, now that you are educated enough to know what you are doing. :-) Use mysql_free_result() if the memory de-allocation is important to you. -- WARNING [EMAIL PROTECTED] address is an endangered species -- Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wanna help me out?

Re: [PHP] Using post method thru php-script
> $fp = fsockopen('secure.aaa.com',443,&$err_num,&$err_msg);
Talking to an SSL server on port 443 is a bit more complicated than chatting
up an HTTP server on port 80.
You have to pre-negotiate your encryption algorithms and send some public
keys back and forth to generate some more public/private key-pairs and...
While DIY is tons of fun, with a deadline of the 27th looming, I'd look into
using "cURL".
Search the archives for URLs and further info on cURL. Last I heard,
somebody was gonna integrate cURL direct into PHP, but I've been out of it
for awhile.
Oh yeah: I'm back! :-)
