it appears to depend on the table type. i believe you are ok with MyISAM or
InnoDB  tables. check out the docs on table creation and column types at
mysql.com.

[PHP] Re: ULTIMATE TUTORIAL? (where)

2001-08-02 Thread Richard Lynch

>There has to be an ultimate php tutorial out there which goes from start to
finish being easy >on the brain. if someone finds a tutorial this good,
i may be forced to post less on this >list. and i wouldnt like that

Try the WebMonkey and the DevShed ones, I think...  Or just try the first
three pages of each tutorial you can find, and follow all the way through
the first one that makes sense to you.

To a large extent, it depends on what you want to *DO* with PHP.

MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MS-SQL, or all of the above?
Do you need GD?
How about high-precision mathematics with BC_MATH?
Super-fast but low-featured "database" action?  LDAP is your buddy.
Need to retrieve Email and News in a web page?  Find a PHP/IMAP HowTo.

There can't be an ultimate PHP tutorial from start to finish because, like,
unless you actually need LDAP or YP or HyperWave or any of the other rather
esoteric extensions there's not much point in forcing them into a tutorial.

You'd be looking at an encyclopedia before you were done with every
extension.  Hell, by the time somebody wrote the damn thing, somebody else
will have come up with another extension.

[PHP] Re: Attitude of B van Ouwerkerk

2001-08-02 Thread Inércia Sensorial

  When on mailing lists such discussion get longer and longer, like
'Attitude of B van Ouwerkerk', I always remember of this email. Could
everyone give a moment of thought and get back to the purpose of this list?
I know that this includes myself too, which I apologize for my behavior:

Q: How many mailing list subscribers does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Thousands!
1 to change the light bulb and post to the list that the light bulb has been
changed.
14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light
bulb could have been changed
differently.
7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.
27 to point out spelling and grammatical errors in posts about changing
light bulbs.
53 to flame the spell checkers.
156 to write to the list administrator complaining about the light bulb
discussion and its inappropriateness to
this mail list.
41 to correct spelling in the spelling/grammar flames.
109 to post that this list is not about light bulbs and would they kindly
take this email exchange to
alt.lite.bulb.
203 to demand that cross posting to alt.grammar, alt.spelling and
alt.punctuation about changing light bulbs be
stopped.
111 to defend the posting to this list saying that we all use light bulbs
and therefore the posts **are**
relevant to this mail list.
306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy
the best light bulbs, what brand of
light bulbs work best for this technique, and what brands are faulty.
27 to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs.
14 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly, and to ask for  corrected
URLs.
3 to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this
list which makes light bulbs relevant
to this list.
33 to summarize all posts to date, then quote them including all headers and
footers, and then add "Me
Too."
12 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing because they cannot
handle the light bulb controversy.
19 to quote the "Me Too's" to say, "Me Three."
4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ.
1 to propose new alt.change.lite.bulb newsgroup.
47 to say this is just what alt.physic.cold_fusion was meant for, so leave
it there.
143 votes for alt.lite.bulb.
27 to post in HTML because they are using the IE or Netscape that had it
turned on by default and are too
clueless to look.
48 to complain about the HTML posts.
27 to post 'sorry I didn't realize it was on' -- in HTML.
96 to complain about more HTML and post detailed instructions on how to
change the setting.
58 to mumble something about using a web browser to read mail.
12 MIME posts with useless colors and bolds saying thanks for the help with
the HTML mail.
1 to post a GIF/JPG of the lightbulb hanging too close to his digital
camera.
58 to complain about the binary post.
14 to say they liked the binary and didn't mind it.
1 post about how you can M*A*K*E M*O*N*E*Y FA$T! by selling lightbulbs
and this report available for only
$5.
1328 to reply to the list with the full spam attached and then put 'remove'
at the end.
3 to flame the other morons for replying to the spammer and CC'ing the list.
1 from the list admin notifying that the list is looking for a bigger server
to handle the load.

HI
I don't know why you are like G.Bush.  But I have a vision that 
formed while scanning some of the lists recent postings.
I see a man shoveling snow, again, from the sidewalk. While this 
is going on a kid is running around building a snow man, making a 
fort, throwing snow balls, hollering at friends, in general, having 
fun.  Keep the fun going as long as you can.  If you get good enough, 
you can hire someone else to do the shoveling.

Good Luck...

In my script that puts out a form I have a drop down list which include ==>
echo "$Education\n";
echo "Bachelor's Degree\n";

It uses a $PHP_SELF target.  After the form is submitted, on the new

$Education and the more I submit the form the more "\" I get.

Any ideas as to how to clean this up?

Re: [PHP] software localization with PHP

2001-08-02 Thread Colin Viebrock

I was just looking through the mailing list archives for some help
with my gettext problem (basically, I can't get it to work).

Anyway, I came across your post:

> Thanks for the reply.  This will not solve my problem.  The problem is,
for some
> languages the sentence structure may be different.  For example, the
sentence
> may need to be,
> $greeting = "$first_name, welcome!"
> as opposed to,
>$greeting = "Welcome, $first_name!"

This can be handled by gettext.  Change your english code to something like:

$greeting = sprintf( gettext("Welcome, %s!"), $first_name );

Once you run xgettext to extract all the strings, you'll end up with

msgid "Welcome, %s!"
msgstr ""

So just convert it into whatever language, and move the "%s" as needed, eg:

msgstr "%s, bonjour!"

This even works with multiple "%s"'s, in later versions of PHP where you can
rearrange the arguments in the format string, but not the way they are
passed
to sprintf():

msgid "%s is %d years old"
msgstr "$2%d Jahrs habe $1%s"

Check www.php.net/sprintf for details.

Hope that helps.

- Colin

[PHP] HTML file with variable replacement.

2001-08-02 Thread Jason Bell

Ok, I'm trying to seperate my php from my html  the method I've been
trying to use is like so:

$html = fread(fopen("htmlpage.html", "r"), filesize("htmlpage.html"));
print $html;


This works perfectly fine, except if I want to use a variable

lets say that my htmlpage.html includes the following:

Hello! Your variable has a value of: $myvar

and my test.php file is as follows:



I would expect the output to be:

Hello! Your variable has a value of: It works!

but what I get is:

Hello! Your variable has a value of: $myvar


any hints/tips/suggestions?  Is there another way that I should be doing
this?

thanks!

[PHP] Q: Hiding Folder Directories from public while still...

2001-08-02 Thread Marcus James Christian

Hello,

How does one do the trick of hiding a  folder's directory listing from a
public browser?

i.e.  Lets say the full address is  www.mysite.com/php/magicphppage.php

Well I still need some other files to read and write to
magicphppage.php   I don't want the public to be able to simply type
www.mysite.com/php/ and have all of my php files show up on a funky
"virtual directory".

Thanks,
Marcus

2001-08-02 Thread scott [gts]

if you're using apache, there's a *much* easier/secure way
of doing this.

setup an .htaccess file to restrict access to certain
username/passwords.

check out both:
man htaccess
man htpasswd

[PHP] Apache

2001-08-02 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is just a little bit off-topic - sorry

I'm running Mandrake 8.0 and am pretty new to Linux. I want to download my 
entire website to my hard drive and put it in hte /var/www folder, but apache 
is the owner and the group for that directory. I'm just wondering, if I chown 
the directory so that I am the owner, would that cause problems somehow? Or 
is it possible to chmod it so that apache is still the owner but i am allowed 
to write to it?  

TIA

Yes, ASP is revenue generating to Misocroft. PHP is free, so it's no good

Hi Julian,

personally, I'd take out both tags, using something like:

$str = preg_replace("/<\/?p.*?>/i", "", $str);

Which gets rid of:




Or any case insensitive matches.  That's probably just me though ;)

if you ask me, I should get a warning on line 2 where the switch is, not on

php 4.0.5 cgi does not do this.

[PHP] question about PHP manual and ImageCopyMerge() function

2001-08-02 Thread Kurt Lieber

For the ImageCopyMerge() function in the PHP manual
(http://php.net/manual/en/function.imagecopymerge.php) it states at the
top that "(PHP 4 >= 4.0.1)" is required in order to use it.  However,
farther down the page, it says "Note: This function was added in PHP
4.0.6"

Am I mis-reading something?  Can anyone tell me which is the correct
version of PHP in which this function was added?

Thanks.

[PHP] .shtml or .php ?

2001-08-02 Thread David Ovens

The Virtual() command works on my hosting server, I am running windows, idigostart 
perl/apache with php4 installed, how do I get this virtual() command to work on my 
machine, I assumed that the php4 I had installed was an apache module.

I have .shtml pages using includes for html, and "exec cgi" for executing .cgi 
scripts, as I am using php more and more is there an advantage in me changing my 
.shtml pages to php and use the equivalent include, and virtual commands ??  But I do 
need somehow to be able to use the virtual() command on my machine so that I can 
develop my scripts.

[PHP] GetImageSize()

2001-08-02 Thread John Hurleston

I started to use this command in my soft about 3 months ago and all went
well, I've had to do some re-organising and I changed the varable that holds
the old image root, to the new image root and ofcouse moved the images, but
now my GetImageSize() doesn't work any more,

http://www.guia-marbella.com

shows two No's basicaly indicating that GetImageSize is not working

  Here is the code:

 \n");

  if ($Menu_Foto1 != "")
{
  $Photo_Size = GetImageSize ("$GS_Control_Gallery/$Menu_Foto1");
  $Photo_Size_W = $Photo_Size[0];
  $Photo_Size_H = $Photo_Size[1];


if ($Photo_Size_W > 180)
  {
$Temp_Size1 = ($Photo_Size_W - 180 );
$Temp_Size2 = (180 / $Photo_Size_W);
$Photo_Size_W = ($Photo_Size_W - $Temp_Size1);
$Photo_Size_H = ($Photo_Size_H * $Temp_Size2);
  }

  print ("   \n");
  print ("   \n");

}

  if ($Menu_Text1 != "")
{
  print ("\n");

if ($Menu_Title1 != "")
  {
print ("$Menu_Title1 \n");
  }
  print ("$Menu_Text1 \n");
  print ("\n");
  print (" \n");
}

  if ($Menu_More1 != "")
{
  print ("  More... \n");
}

print ("   \n");
?>

Just by the piont that you can see the images there means that the image
location is correct.
So, I dont know...

Can anyone shine any light...

Hmm...you can get in sooo much trouble with that statement. Microsoft, in

no.

That statement should be your first reason why PHP is better. :-)

RE: [PHP] How to Compare dates?

2001-08-02 Thread scott [gts]

it also appears that you're checking for the same thing
over and over and over

'0' is the same as "0"
and 00 is the same as 0
and "00" is the same as '00'

try checking for either 0 or "-00-00"

I have a string can look like either of the following:

I want to use eregi_replace to take out the first p tag whether it be

I assumed that $str = eregi_replace ("", " ",$str);
but it matches the entire string and thus turns the whole string into
one space.
aparently regex will match the biggest possible match rather than the
smallest
my question is how do i get it to match the smallest.

[PHP] URGENT!!! Can't start Apache with php4 and mysql

2001-08-02 Thread Richard Kurth

   I have read the archives for this problem but I can't seam to fix it
  This is on a RedHat 7
  I get this error when I try to start Apache
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 256 of /etc/httpd/conf
/httpd.conf: Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/libphp4.so into server:
 libmysqlclient.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file
  or directory

 What I have read is to add the path to libmysqlclient.so.10 to the
 /etc/ld.so.conf file and then run  "ldconfig". at root
 I did this but ldconfig does not run
 I keep getting No such file or directory
 

 This is what my ld.so.conf file looks like
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/mysql
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql <--This is were   libmysqlclient.so.10 is


  I really need to get this working

[PHP] Mysql join and aliasing with mysql_fetch_object()

2001-08-02 Thread rkirk.com Mail

I'm using a query similar to:

select tableA.*, tableB.* from tableA,
left join tableB ON tableA.keyfield = tableB.keyfield

When I then try to access the column "keyfield", after using
mysql_fetch_object() e.g.

$resultObject->keyfield

I get no value returned. What is the correct way to reference a field/column
that has the same name (as it's a primary and foreign key) on both tables?
Is there some syntax like:

$resultObject->tableA.keyfield ?

I've tried specifically aliasing the field on tableA e.g.

select tableA.*, tableA.keyfield AS myKeyField, tableB.* from tableA,
left join tableB ON tableA.keyfield = tableB.keyfield

and then using $resultObject->myKeyField but that doesn't seem to work
either.
I can't find any useful info/examples about this on the PHP site.

Also if I change the query to be:

select tableA.*, tableB.* from tableA, tableB
left join tableB ON tableA.keyfield = tableB.keyfield

adding the joined table to the FROM clause I get an error. Surely this is
the correct syntax and if anything my initial syntax should fail! Am I not
understanding this correctly or is my mySQL manual out of sync?

Please help
Thanks

[PHP] newbie question - apache-win2K-authentication

2001-08-02 Thread Shari Fletcher

Hi all ---

I'm having some trouble getting basic authentication working.  Either that
or my privileges are screwed up, or something.

I am running Apache on Windows 2000 and PHP4.  I've searched newsgroups,
this mailing list, various FAQs and the manual, I think my eyes are
crossing.  I've got a feeling either its so simple I can't see it, or its
not possible.  I'm hoping someone has a quick idea about what's going on.

Here's my story:

My authentication script is from this example.

If I leave it as is, I can authenticate and I receive the error:

malformed = header from script. Bad header=3DHTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized:
=e:/php/php.exe

If I change the unauthorized header to this:  header("Status: 401
Unauthorized");  I cannot authenticate, though the user id and password is
correct.


Thanks in advance !
Shari


My script:

if (!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)) {

// If empty, send header causing dialog box to appear
header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="securedf"');
header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo 'Authorization Required.';
exit;
}

// If not empty, display values for variables

else {

echo "
You have entered this username: $PHP_AUTH_USER
You have entered this password: $PHP_AUTH_PW
The authorization type is: $PHP_AUTH_TYPE
";
}

I have:

}

IT DOESNT WORK!

but when I do:

It works, please tell me what a difference? what do I do wrong that

[PHP] shtml or php ??

2001-08-02 Thread Dave.O

Which is the best language to use, php or shtml, I use only a couple of SSI
commands in shtml to call in headers and footers, and run cgi scripts as
below.  I thought maybe as I am getting more into php that I should change
the files from shtml to php, and use the equivalent commands to call in
headers, footers and run external .cgi programs.  But as below cant see how
to load in an external .cgi program into php, as you can see below.

I am presently using an shtml file using 
which work fine and in php I can use the include('my.htm'); command.

in one of my shtml  i use the  command, but how do
I run an external .cgi script from php, I have looked at many of the
commands such as include(), system(), passthru() , but cant find away to do
it.  Can someone help ??

Is it best for me to leave it in shtml as I have also discovered that SSI
will not parse inside an html section in php.  Which of these shtml, or php
uses more resources on the server ?  Which is the best solution to my
problem ??

Regards

Re: [PHP] SQL syntax error in PHP script. dunno what's wrong

2001-08-02 Thread mike cullerton

hmmm, i am seeing the same thing as tim here. are we doing something wrong?
i created a test table, entered some dummy data and then using scott's
example of "'; DELETE FROM seminar; " i tried executing

  insert into test values (0,''; DELETE FROM test; ',1);

and got this error

 ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1

trying other variations either caused similar errors or added rows to my
table.

is it possible to sneak in a command in this manner?

  Okay Kyle. I know the list is an amazing place to solve your doubts. By I
highly recommend you read some tutorials first. Go to www.hotscripts.com/PHP
, section 'Tips and Tutorials', and read, maybe on this order:

1) Introduction to PHP, Form Processing, Data and Time, Counters, Mailing
Lists, Database-Related, Sessions.

  If you go for it (reading), you can finish them in 3 or 4 days. In one
week, almost all of your previous asked questions here will be answered.
That's not only to save our bandwith, but, you sure need to develop other
ways to find the information you need on the internet ;-)

Kyle,

Apache runs as a background program.

When you've installed apache, and php, you don't actually run them from the
commmand line.

What you have to do is open up a browser window, and point it to your
computer.

Open up Internet Explorer (you're running windows it looks like),

and type in  http://127.0.0.1  or http://localhost

This should bring up a screen saying you've installed apache correctly.

If apache is installed in the default directories, then most likely you'll
need to put some webpages into

c:\apache\htdocs

I would recommend making a file called test.php with the following lines in



Save it into c:\apache\htdocs

now go to your webbrowser, and go to  http://localhost/test.php

If php shows the phpinfo screen then you've installed everything correctly.
If it doesn't work, we'll need to look at your apache settings and php
settings.  Try the stuff above first, then tell me what happens.

Cheers,

Lawrence.

Re: [PHP] URGENT!!! Can't start Apache with php4 and mysql

2001-08-02 Thread Miles Thompson

Richard,

I've sometimes had to take a couple of swipes at this, trying both
/usr/local/mysql/lib
and
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql

And does libmysqlclient.so.10 have a symlink to something like
libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0

And because I just checked a second machine, where mysql is installed in a 
completely different location, have you done a "locate" to confirm that 
libmysqlclient is where you expect?

I know, it's like checking for gas in the tank, but sometimes

RE: [PHP] PHP-Linux >> Sybase-Windows

Veniamin,

You can use OpenLink's Multi-Tier ODBC drivers for this.

Compile PHP --with-iodbc as per the HOWTO at www.iodbc.org.
The presence of the iODBC Driver Manager will let you use any ODBC drivers,
and then you can do compariative testing.

Our drivers download with a free non-expiring 2-user license, and free
support is available at http://www.openlinksw.com/support/suppindx.htm.

If it's not in your normal search path, you might nead to provide the
full path to the ldconfig program.  I'm not sure where it normally lives
on a Redhat system, but on my FreeBSD box, it's in /sbin.

An alternative, of course, if you can't get things working the other
way, is simply to copy libmysqlclient.so.10 to one of the locations that
was already in your ld.so.conf (that is, somewhere that ld already knows
about)...

RE: [PHP] MySql help #1

2001-08-02 Thread Lawrence . Sheed

Have you thought about your database design carefully?

You might want to create a column for item count  

eg

id, item name, items in stock 
1,  frog,  7

if, say a customer orders 3 frogs, decrement the items in stock by 3.

Just an idea...

Do you know about database normalization?  How is the database designed?

If you want to post a file on this list, just upload it (your sure got some

2.  I use Badblue www.badblue.com for easy, fast development.   I also
recommend Apache above IIS or PWS.

[PHP] Very strange problem with session files

2001-08-02 Thread Jarek

I have WindowsNT4 Serv & PHP 4.0.6/CGI

My php.ini includes:
(...)
session.save_handler = files
session.save_path = /tmp
session.use_cookies = 1
(...)

Problem: When I run PHP script which uses sessions (commands like session_start()
etc.) the session file IS created in /tmp BUT cannot be received and
added to my URL. My browser (IE5.5PL SP1) receives message:

 Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that
 the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in
 I:\(...)\test.php on line 0

I checked. The session data was created! I CAN read them directly by
another script also in PHP:

(...)
Cannot read $path/$filename");
  print fread($fd, filesize("$path/$filename"));
  fclose($fd);
?>

It seams very strange. PHP do create session data but display error
"Failed to write". What can be incorrect with session.save_path? I
checked, the session data is created correctly. I can read that file.
What is goin' on? Anybody can help?

RE: [PHP] SQL syntax error in PHP script. dunno what's wrong

2001-08-02 Thread Tim Ward

I'd always understood that mysql doesn't allow multiple statements to be
submitted so this post obviously worried me. I did some tests and confirmed
that this is not a problem in MySQL queries from PHP. If I'm wrong about
this please let me know.

Tim

no offense to you sam, but please dont ever simply place
single quotes around values.  you have to escape the values
*themselves*.

what if someone submitted the form field title as:
$title = "'; DELETE FROM seminar; "

if you didn't escape the single quotes in there, it
would get interpreted as a valid DELETE statement
and your seminar table would get wiped.

however, if you escaped $title, you'd end up setting
title to "\'; DELETE FROM SEMINAR; " 
(rather than have the contents of $title interpreted
as SQL commands)

RE: [PHP] MySql help #1

2001-08-02 Thread Lawrence . Sheed

Sounds like a strange request, what are you trying to do?

I don't think you can do this directly in mysql, but you could build an
array of results in php.

eg something like (crappy code below)

//Grab results
$db = mysql_connect($db_domain, $db_user,$db_password);
mysql_select_db($db_databasename,$db);
$sqlquery="select ID from table1 where condition1";
$result = mysql_query ($sqlstring,$db);
$count=0;
while ($resultset = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {
$array[$count]=$resultset ["ID"];
$count++;
}


for ($count=0;$count<2;$count++){
"update table1 set field='VALUE' WHERE ID=".$array[$count]";
$result = mysql_query ($sqlstring,$db) or die (mysql_error());
}

How can I update only N fields from the database?

usually we do:

UPDATE table1 SET field='VALUE' WHERE condition1

now I want to update fields with a certain condition but only X fields out N
total fields.

id   value
--- ---
1a
2b
3c
4d
5e

how can i update such like:
UPDATE table1 SET {only 2 records} value='aa'
so I have any two fields now have the 'aa' value

As far as i've seen NuSphere package is running on Linux only.. has been
reported as being 40Megs.. while the seperate parts are 17Megs only.
Manuals included..

If you're on Linux then rather download the parts and learn on
www.devshed.com how to install.. It's easy.. and fun..
A direct link has been provided by another member of this list..

But I think the guy asking this does run on Windooz..

Bye,


B.

[PHP] Mysql Help #2

2001-08-02 Thread elias

Hi again.

$result = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM table");
$id_array = array();

while ($r = mysql_fetch_array($result))
   $id_array[] = $r["id"];

// now $id_array[] is an array of IDs that was grabbed from the database.

Any faster and/or better approache to build the $id_array?
