[PHP] Reading files from a directory
I have problem with reading files from directory. This is the code: \n"; }; ?> That is ALL code on a script file.

[PHP] text wrap in table
Hi, I am creating a program for a newspaper to publish their article online. There is a form what allows them to cut and past from their editors (word, pagemaker, staroffice). The data is being entered correctly. The problem is when I try and get the data from the table the whole matter scrolls off the screen. I need it to be formatted as the client cut and pastes it (headings, paras, etc). Below is my table and part of my program. mysql> desc newsarticles; +--+--+--+-+++ | Field| Type | Null | Key | Default| Extra | +--+--+--+-+++ | id | int(5) | | PRI | NULL | auto_increment | | nid | int(5) | | MUL | 0 || | headline | varchar(100) | | ||| | article | mediumtext | | ||| | date | date | | | -00-00 || | imgpath | varchar(200) | YES | | NULL || +--+--+--+-+++ headline; ?> headline; ?> description; ?> article; ?> > I use the to display with the line breaks. If I take of the it does not wrap but does not give the breaks. To my thinking maybe while entering the data we should give break the lines physically. This is part of my entry form. HeadLine Article Upload Image How do I get the text not to wrap and to preserve the formatting given by the client.

[PHP] Re: PHP / MySQL Hosting Charges
You can see hosts offer the package for around $10/month, so if it's inside a package they shouldn't charge more than US$2-US$4/month. If it's an extra feature, however, they may well charge around $5/month for the add-on and possibly also a setup fee, because it's not in their actual product list. anything above that could possibly be considered as expensive. For example I get 350MB mySQL/PHP/Python/CGI Logs etc 100x POP, unlimited forwards 1x Domain + lots more for around $20/month HTH, Raphael -- 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] PHP / MySQL Hosting Charges
Hi All, Just a quick non-technical question. I live in Australia and a friend of mine has a website hosted here in Oz, and he pays his set amount per month which simply is for Hosting, cgi-bin and log file access for his website. Hes wanting to have the ability to use PHP and MySQL on his site and his provider has quoted him the cost to add to his current monthly charges to give him a MySQL username/password/database and PHP ability. Both he and I feel its a bit pricey for what they want to charge so I figured I would ask the list to see what other people consider a reasonable price to add PHP and MySQL access to his current www/cgi-bin/logs website. I wont mention the prices hes been quoted yet because I want to see some uninfluenced posts. Cheers in advance.

It looks like you've already started output in the script (on line 8).
You can't send a header once you've started to send web page content.
That's why headers and body contents exist :)

Many small businesses would like to do e-commerce, but can't afford expensive consultants, expensive hardware, and expensive software tools developed by huge corporations. There is a vast market for web developers who use free software tools like Linux/Apache/PHP, and offer their services to small businesses at modest rates.

I just looked over the code, and the reason for this is it specifically designed for a multi-process web environment. The most common method for semaphore initialization is in the parent process right before fork. There is no parent initializer for a php module author, and since each child has its own environment, there is no way to know when to initialize the semaphore. The way that Tom solved that problem was to create a "USAGE" semaphore which is used to insure that the semaphore is only initialized once. There must have been some sort of race condition because the purpose of the 3rd semaphore is a lock. This is actually a sharp way to handle the problem of no central way to initialize. -Jason -- 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] Mixing PHP with a FAX Gateway? HELP!!! IDEAS???
Hey, I'm wondering if anyone here has any experiencing mixing webware with a FAX solution on the unix platform, particulary FreeBSD 4.2. I have 2 seperate possilble solutions here. The first involves faxing using software configured on the server. The 2nd is a PHP type solution, capturing HTML from a URL and assembling it into an attachment for email. Please give me any thoughts you can offer on these. What I currently have is a e-commerce solution I wrote in PHP. There are pages that are generated (sort of like a populated form) that need to be faxed. This is all theory I am talking right now, because I have never done anything like this, including just faxing from a server. Now, what would it entail to get our dedicated server preped to do faxing for starters. It's at our colo facility and gobs of bandwidth. Obviously we have no modem connected at this point, and I don't even know if an actual phone line would be available to us. So, what I am guessing is that there are services that offer dial-out gateways for faxing and such, over the Internet. Where, our software can send data to a faxing gateway, which in turn sends the fax through their lines. Anyone know of any services like this? Also, what type of faxing software is available on FreeBSD? How does it integrate with actual means of faxing (gateways/modem) etc. Basically, the whole fax over server thing is new to me, and I'm trying to see if anyone has any experience at all doing this. The goal is: when you are looking at this rendered HTML page, you have a button that says "Fax" and when you click on it, the web page you are looking at is faxed off, through the server, looking just as it appeared on the screen basically (which merely consists of text in tables, and a couple 's). The goal is to make this as seamless as possible. 2nd solution- Now, eFax offers you a service where you can send an email, containing an attachment, such as .html and it will render the email and attachments and fax them off like they look. This would not be such a bad idea, but we want to avoid people having to manually "Send Page By Email" through outlook each time. What I am thinking if I can capture the HTML that is generated from the script (ie- showdetails.php?order_id=432) and then create an attachment of that HTML (ie- my_attachment_to_fax.html) and then send it through email ( function mail(); ) that would be perfect. Anyone have any code on how capture the HTML from a URL (fopen(); ?) and then assemble that into an attachment (.html / correct mime type/headers) and send it off? Sound plausible? Please give me any insight to either of these methods. Thank you.

[PHP] send mail to mailing list using mail() or smtp?
I would appreciate some feedback. I am writing a script to fire off emails in HTML or text format to everyone in a mailing list. It works no problem - but I am concerned with how many emails it can deal with over time. The script has no timeout setting, I am not sure if it needs one. It fires off 100 emails, pauses for 1 minute using sleep(60), and then fires off another 100. It sends the mail using mail(). I did my first send the other day to 930 addresses and it worked fine. My question - is this going to work for a few thousand emails? What about 100,000? Would it be better to send the mail directly to the smtp server? Can you foresee any problems? I look forward to your reply...

[PHP] Array's in classes
Hi Guys, I have written a class in which it uses the global command to get the value of a variable from outside of this class which I use within the class. I have recently changed this variable to an array and added 5 extra keys to this array. It is a string indexed array. In now seems as though PHP wont import the array. It is really weird though because if I access the key of an array such as $database["hostname"] is just echo's nothing at all to the browser. It also echo's nothing to the browser if I use $database[0]. But, if I echo just $database to the browser it returns "Array" ? Does anybody have any idea of why this is happening?

I can't think of one. And as more come out, we'll find ways to get > PHP to talk to them. Personally I would be a lot more worried if I have bet all the farm in a single technology. PHP is most suited for Web development because historically it has been the area on which it was mostly focused. Now, we are in the Internet downhill days. Not that Internet is loosing importance, but a lot of people had to drop Web/Internet development because they no longer can make as much money from it as in the past. A lot of those people had to start doing Web development for but for paying users like in corporations Intranet development. There is still a lot of that mentality in the paying users world that only software that costs money is credible. You may claim that those are techno-ignorant users, but you can't neglect they may constitute a significant part of the users. I'm afraid that PHP is not yet very credible in that world. The truth is there is not great marketing force behind PHP like there is Sun behind Java or Microsoft behind .Net . Actually, a great part of computing market simply ignores PHP. So, it is very hard to convince the anybody to bet all the farm in PHP. You may have the technical arguments, but is not enough, I'm afraid. You in particular, may not need to convince others to bet on PHP, but it is nothing like that for most people that want to live from software development. They have to put up with work/business opportunities that the market offers to live from it. So, today, I'm afraid that you already still have an hard time to convince people to dedicate only to PHP, even those that know and believe PHP is that great.

Basically, you need to see if the value they selected is the one you're
currently working with and add the 'selected' attribute to your
tag. If it's not then just keep on going through.

Your 'while ($row...) is reading in one row of data. You're then outputing
that one row of data twice. Is that what you wanted?
You don't specifically say what it is that isn't working in this code so I'm
really just guessing. If you're actually after a different set of data in each
row then you're going to need to approach it differently.
To have new data in the second column you'll basically have to add a flag
to track if you've already put data on that row and then change the tags
accordingly (if you've already got the start of the row, add the new column
and end the row, otherwise start a row and add your data).

engine page:

But for some reason, it doesnt work. I've tried everything, changing the
php3 to php and include("freelance.php3?id=1")
The only thing that works is
header location("balh balh...
but that redirects to the freelance.php3?id=1 page and *i think* thats bad
for search engines (isnt it?)
So what I'd like some info on is why my include() function doesnt work and
does a header lcoation command make any difference to the search engines.

I'm using the function below to create a listing of name/value pairs

after the first time, it uses the originally used variables. So if

The first time it will output correctly and the debugging lines will
properly output:

There are two obvious approaches to this: First, with JavaScript, you could write a 'select all' button, which checks all the checkboxes, then submits the form normally. Or, you could have a submission button that tells PHP to approve all listed items whether checked or not, ie The problem with this is that unchecked checkboxes simply don't appear when the form is submitted; you need some way to get a full list of the IDs in question. A quick fix I have found is as follows, for each option: NOTE: the name is NOT an array, and the hidden field must come before the checkbox. This way, if the checkbox is not checked, the 'No' value comes through; otherwise it is over-written by 'Yes'. Another option would be to keep a comma-delimited list of IDs and write 'em all into a single hidden field, ie Hope this helps... -- 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]

Re: [PHP] The future of PHP
Let's not forget the ecosystem in which these different technologies thrive. It's all based on who's paying whom to do what. The reality of the situation is that the people in charge don't know (or care) about all these different technologies. They may make some broad decisions (linux vs win), but you can bet they often rely on individual techies to help guide them to the solution they need. As technology advances, you can bet the divide between management and development will only widen. All that matters now is the end result. With the disparity in developer skill, the difficulty in estimating development time accurately, and the increase in processing power there's a lot of room for developers to make their own decisions. In this kind of environment, there is a lot of room for different programming languages. PHP has the benefits of lightning fast development cycles. Java has the advantage of being a strict, modern, fault-tolerant language that lends itself to well-written code. ASP has advantage of MS 'programming for dummies'-style devlopment tools. Perl has the advantage of its text processing abilities. C has the speed advantage by staying barebones and relatively low level for a verbose language. In order for one of these technologies to die, something has to come along with all the advantages and no new disadvantages. Somehow I don't see this happening to open-source projects like PHP, or MySQL. It's much easier to improve them then to develop something better.

I have a form where users can enter a link (kind of a free for al links type of thing) When they add their site to the database a 0 is added to the "approved" field. When I load an admin script I can check all of the ones that have a 0 in that field. I want to have checkboxes form down the side of them so I can check the ones I want approved.

Re: Re[2]: [PHP] printing
The way that I do it on Linux is to generate TeX output, invoke TeX
using system(), and then just lpr the output to the printer. The
current production system that I am using actually uses a perl script
invoked from a php script, really ugly, but I had the perl script from
another project.
Here is a PHP example:
$tex_file = "/tmp/file.tex";
$dvi_file = "/tmp/file.dvi";
$fp = fopen ($tex,"w");
fputs ($fp, "This is a short story.\n");
fputs ($fp, "\\end\n");
fclose($fp);
system ("tex --output-directory /tmp $tex_file >> $log_file");
system ("dvips -P el4050 $dvi_file");
You have to understand TeX/LaTeX. The good news is that if you use TeX
you will end up with output that the fools that use Crystal Reports
will drool over.

[PHP] code check
Sorry to bother you all with this, but I have no way to test this, as I have
no access to a Mac. Could you tell me if this little piece of code looks as
if it would work (detect whether someone's using the Mac OS)?
if (preg_match("/mac/i", "$HTTP_USER_AGENT") || preg_match("/macintosh/i",
"$HTTP_USER_AGENT") || preg_match("/ppc/i", "$HTTP_USER_AGENT") ||
preg_match("/PowerPC/i", "$HTTP_USER_AGENT")):
$basefont = "Geneva";
else:
$basefont = "Verdana, Helvetica, Serif";
endif;
It doesn't return an error, but that doesn't mean it works. I really
appreciate your help. TIA

Re: [PHP] Re: force download in IE -- conclusion
I have had success getting IE 5.5 for PC recognising the suggested
filename by changing the content type to something other than
application/octet-stream. If it was left as that for IE 5.5(which the
script snippet indicates) it would tend to take the filename of the
script that executed it, or HTML file where the link to the script was
located.
I have been using the forced download for txt and pdf files, dynamically
generated with PHP of course, for about 2 years. It is a pain in the ass
to figure out the correct combinations for every different IE browser.
Luckily it is a campus only system and the users are on PC or Linux.
Oh, and there is a bug if you try to force download in IE over an SSL
connection WHEN USING SESSIONS. I stumbled accross someone working on
the SquirrelMail project who found a solution. You just have to send
these two extra headers to get IE force these downloads over SSL
if (ereg("MSIE", $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_USER_AGENT'])) {
header('Pragma: ');
header('Cache-Control: cache');
}
That one had me stumped for 2 years and I had to bail out of the sessions
and pass everything through the URL to force a download.
Hope that helps too.

[PHP] Re: The future of PHP
XML is pretty standardized, but the implementation of it in various web browsers isn't. I wouldn't consider XML all that comparable to HTML. They don't serve the same purpose. XML is generally used to order and describe data (metadata, basically), and although HTML serves roughly the same purpose, HTML is much more focused in what it provides -- HTML is meant to be rendered in a web browser, while XML's use is really undefined. You can use XML for server-to-server communications, peer-to-peer stuff, messaging, document descriptions, and pretty much any generalized markup. HTML really isn't designed for that sort of stuff. As for "freestyle", XML's syntax is much less open to interpretation than HTML's. XML is much more rigid -- forget a closing tag and your document becomes invalid. Screw up the order of your elements and it's invalid. If you forget a closing tag in HTML, you can be forgiven, but in XML, you're toast. Even linebreak elements in XML need closing tags. It doesn't really matter how IE and Netscape or any other browser renders XML. That's what XSL is for -- transforming XML into HTML before it is sent to the client. (Alternatively, the XML could be sent directly to the client and then doing the transformation client-side. As for XML scripting engines, again, XML is just markup, it isn't really a scripting engine. There is a bit of scripting-like looping structures and logic that can be used in XSL, but it's nowhere near the level of PHP, ASP, Perl, etc. Apache's Cocoon XML/XSL system does have a programming system built in called XSP (eXtensible Server Pages), which is basically takes Java embedded into XML or XSL and compiles it all as one big Java class. (You can add different languages to XSP, but it isn't fun. The next version will have "producers" that can create XML from scripting/compiled languages, including PHP.) I've mixed PHP and XML (with XSLT) on my current project quite nicely. I started with Cocoon and XSP, but as Sablotron and PHP's XSLT extensions became more stable, I started using them rather than combining both Cocoon and PHP.

This is a matter of personal preference, but use formatting that is helpful to
determine where you are in your code... and comment yourself... it will avoid
missing } { and other common erors that eat up valuable time tracking down. HTML
cares less about the extra spaces and \n's anyway
While generally restrictive in nature, some good ideas for policing your own
code can be found at http://utvikler.start.no/code/php_coding_standard.html
(just one copy I came across). take what you need out of there... once you
stick to a method, your occasions of tracking down loose ends will drop greatly.

IMO, you are better off printing microtime [http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.microtime.php] before and after the query, and after you loop through it.

Re: [PHP] Getting MySQL Query Times.
Use microtime before and after the query.
$this->starttime=explode(' ',microtime());
// query()
$this->endtime=explode(' ',microtime());
$this->starttime=$this->starttime[1]+$this->starttime[0];
$this->endtime=$this->endtime[1]+$this->endtime[0];
$this->parse_time=$this->endtime-$this->starttime;
I've copied from working code of a class. But the idea is clear.This way is
better than time() solutuion because with microtime() you get microseconds.
But have in mind that on windows there are some problems with microtime()
and the reported time can be negative.

[PHP] PHP object orientation with "Application Frameworks" or "Foundation Class Libraries"
PHP Wizzards, I'm a PHP newbie but I think I'm falling in love... or at least becoming infatuated with PHP. I'm contemplating a significant PHP development effort on a toolset for Oracle DBA's and I want to architect wisely. Based on prior object oriented development experience with PowerBuilder I think starting with a good framework is very important. What kind of PHP application development frameworks, class libraries, or templates are available and what do you recommend? Is SiteManager any good? How about phplib? Are there others? Any comments on PHP object orientation?

Re: [PHP] Script timeout
Well just to follow up, Apache was the culprit. There is an Apache timeout directive that was set to 300 s that I somehow missed on my first glance. The things that timeout, as far as I know, are PHP, Apache, and several commands within PHP (such as fsockopen()). The Apache directive is called Timeout, conveniently enough. It actually indicates the amount of time between successive TCP packet transmissions before a timeout occurs, which threw me for quite a loop. I could make a script which took 20 minutes to complete and get no timeouts anywhere, so I was convinced there was something wrong with my code. The difference was that this 20 min script outputted data along the way, so no timeouts ever occurred. The problem script didn't output anything until it was finished processing. Christian hit it on the nail. You can set the php timeout within the apache config file like so: php_value max_execution_time 120. This time is not real time, but the time the script actually gets access to cpu resources, or something like that. In my case, a setting of 30 was about 300 s. I don't know if the browser itself will ever timeout as long as it makes the initial handshake.

Re: [PHP] constant arrays or something like #define in c
Ok,
the solution is :
in script1.php
define("ARRAY_NAME","array1");
in script2.php
define("ARRAY_NAME","array2");
in template.php:
${ARRAY_NAME}['some_index']
I didn't tested this but think that it will work. If not post a message to
think for other way.

[PHP] Re: mail function
There are not a lot of guarantees. A big part of the problem is that you can't get instant feedback. Your mail server may queue the message and not even send it right away, or it could get sent, and your mail server doesn't find out for several minutes while the message goes out on the 'net and eventually bounces because the address is bad. There is probably a way you can get your mail server to inform you when a message fails to get delivered, but beyond that you probably can't do much.

RE: [PHP] The future of PHP
Sorry, Should have given specific information. The original article I read was from InfoWorld. It can be found at: http://www.infoworld.com/articles/op/xml/01/07/09/010709opcringely.xml Following is the excerpt from it: Place in the Sun Meanwhile the light finally dawned on archrival Sun Microsystems, as the company discovered the awful truth: Few developers use Java Server Pages (JSP). Rather, many use that quiet achiever, the ugly-duckling language Perl. On its Solaris Developer Connection site, Sun posed the question, "What language do you use to develop Web-based client applications?" The responses went like this: Perl, 41.3 percent; JSP, 19.9 percent; C/C++, 14.2 percent; Linux script language PHP, 11.2 percent; Microsoft Active Server Pages, 8.8 percent; and other, 4.3 percent. Check it out for yourself at soldc.sun.com/polls/index.jshtml -- if they haven't taken it down yet. Notice it even gives info on PHP use :-) Hope this helps.

Re: [PHP] The future of PHP
Hi, Well you are not well informed then. Java is the most popular solution to big web sites with the need to have something fault tolerant and stable. If you look a lot of banks have not JSP or servlets but EJB which are transactional, persistant through connections, multithreaded and have all the power of Java Language (safety, security, sandboxing, etc). Containers like Weblogic are making good money out of this. If you want to know if somebody is using Java, just visit www.javasoft.com or ask people like the group in charge of Tomcat (of the Apache group), XERCES or so at java.apache.org on the Jakarta project. Also Motorola and other companies are working hard to integrate Java into small devices set-top boxes and devices like that. I guess that there are places to use PHP and others to use Java, you decide what will suit better your needs. Sean C. McCarthy SCI, S.L.
