RE: [PHP] From static to dynamic

2001-11-19 Thread Steven Katz


I've been asked by a few to explain further what I'd like to do.

I'd like to accomplish the entire 183-page site with 2 pages: the 
home page and a catalog template.

The home page, which features an item-of-the-day from the catalog 
and past 3 featured items, would choose a random item from the 
database once each day. The past 3 featured items would be 
updated accordingly. Following any of the 20 links to various 
sections of the catalog would return page 1 of x pages of that 
section of the catalog. Each catalog page would display a maximum 
of 9 items with Next and Back buttons when needed. The basic 
layout of the catalog template is a 3x3 table.

Additional questions:

3. I'd rather not spend the time developing an administrative 
interface for managing the content of the catalog right now. How 
difficult will it be for me, a typical customer of a typical web 
hosting service, to manage the content by other means? Can the 
database reside within my html docs dir, where I can access it? 
If so, can I download, modify, and upload it as needed?

4. Am I likely to find anyone here that might be interested in 
taking this on in exchange for a brand-new color Casio 
Wrist-Camera? Anyone interested in seeing (sent privately) some 
pictures I took with the older black & white model? It's so cool.

Subject: [PHP] From static to dynamic


I have a site which consists of a few hundred catalog pages. The 
items in the catalog are pictured 9 to a page with accompanying 
descriptions. The homepage features an item-of-the-day, as well 
as the past 3 featured items. The entire site is static and 
regularly updated manually by me. I don't believe it'll take much 
to fully automate the site, which is what I plan to do, or have 
done, over the next week or so. Now for my questions:

1. The dynamically-generated pages must remain indexable by 
search engines. That is, indexing robots must be able to crawl 
the entire site by following the various links to all of the 
catalog pages. Do the strings that are passed through the URL 
appear to search engines as dynamic, and therefore get ignored?

2. It's important that the site remain easily portable from one 
host to another. I have no plans to move it, but it would be nice 
to know that it would be a simple matter of plunking it down 
somewhere else if I needed to. Is there any advantage to using a 
flat file over mysql in terms of portability? How significantly 
would performance be affected, considering that it's not likely 
there will ever be more than 1000 catalog items (rows)?

I'd be interested in hearing how you'd put this together.

Steven

MS Exchange has supported SMTP since (at least) version 4.0 and possibly even 
since the old MS Mail days.

Not strictly true.

I am primarily a Lasso developer and I can pass values (and do) using Form,
URL and Cookies. In Lasso Cookies are not set in the headers or as part of
an explicit session instruction, but rather just like setting a global
variable, but obviously linked to the user's session.

"r+ - Open for reading and writing; place the file pointer at the 
beginning of the file."

Now, nowhere does the docs say 'and add to it'; what happens is that the 
pointer is placed at the beginning of the file _and anything written to 
the file is overwritten there_. You just can't insert lines in a file 
like that; and that isn't a restriction of PHP, it's the way OSes in 
general work. So if you want to add a line at the beginning of the file, 
you need to read the entire file into a variable, prepend the stuff you 
want to add and then write out the whole lot to the file.

You could probably simplify the process a bit by using file() to read the 
file into an array, then adding that array to the array of stuff you want 
at the beginning of the file and then writing the whole array out to 
file; that way you only have to do one fopen.

I dunno how you would do it in PERL, but the principle is the same at the 
coalface - perhaps PERL hides a bit of the work from you??

not sure I know how to do this...

do you mean to open the file twice? once to read it and put it into a
variable and then close the file and open it again, this time for writing?

I'm confused. this seems so much harder than it would be with Perl. But I
really want to stick with PHP. Can anyone help me out here? I've looked the
manual over and over, and checked the php.net website, but nothing covers
the situation where you want to add text to the TOP of a file. fopen with
the r+ option is not working the way it should.

I'd be eternally grateful...

$PHP_SELF will always give the name and path of the main file, even if the
variable is set in an included file.  The reason is that the included file
is included before the variable is evaluated.

[PHP] \|/ $PHP_SELF

2001-11-19 Thread Gerry Figueroa Anadon


Does $PHP_SELF always get's the path of the document it resides in even if the 
document is an include?

I'm trying to set one of those breadcrumb path navigation scripts and I don't want to 
copy the
script to every directory, I just want to include it in my header.inc.

As a result I only get the home directory link that way.

I tryed using a variable like  $string=$PHP_SELF; then in the script I replaced the 
line:

$str=$PHP_SELF; with $str=$string; , but it turn out as an empty variable.

Here is the original unaltered php:

$site = "http://".$HTTP_HOST."/";; 
 //$site = "http://site.com";; 
 
$str=$PHP_SELF;

ereg("^(.+)/.+\\..+$", $str, $part); 
$str = $part[1]; 
$str = substr($str, 1); 

$label =  array("home"=>"Home",
"anunciate"=>"Anunciate", 
 "encuentreMedico"=>"Encuentre un Medico", 
 "anunciateHospital"=>"Anunciate Hospital", 
 "anunciateMedico"=>"Anunciate Medico", 
 "article"=>"Article", 
 "encuentreHospital"=>"Encuentre un Hospital"); 
 
if (ereg('/', $str)){ 
$arr = split("/", $str); 
$num = count($arr); 
for($i=0; $i < $num; ++$i){ 
echo(" > ".$label[$arr[$i]].""); 
$site = $site . $arr[$i] ."/"; 
} 
}elseif (ereg("[a-zA-Z_]{1,}$",$str)){ 
$arr = $str; 
echo(" > http://".$HTTP_HOST."/".$arr."/\";>".$label[$arr].""); 
}else{

That is the conclusion I have drawn.  However, the variables are
automatically transformed based on the context in which they are used.
Mathmatic operators and functions work flawlessly with numbers passed via
GET without the need for casting.  That is just not the case with the
bitwise operators.

FWIW Rasmus posted this about gd 2.01 and 4.0.6 a while back:

Build gd-2.0.1 with these two lines in your GD2 Makefile:

CFLAGS=-g -DHAVE_LIBPNG -DHAVE_LIBJPEG -DHAVE_LIBFREETYPE
LIBS=libgd.a -lpng -lz -ljpeg -lfreetype -lm

Don't install the lib anywhere, just leave them in the gd-2.0.1 directory.

Then build PHP using:

--with-gd=/home//gd-2.0.1
--with-freetype-dir=/usr
--enable-gd-native-ttf   (note there was a typo in 4.0.6 on this one)
use: --enable-gd-native-tt  if you are using 4.0.6
--enable-gd-imgstrttf
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr
--with-png-dir=/usr
--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6

This assumes that you have freetype2 installed along with the libjpeg and
libpng libs under /usr

crawl URLs that contain GET variables.  Others will not.  There is a way
around this by creating links such as index.php?/Men/Shirts/Blue/XLarge and
using the $PATH_INFO variable to parse the URL and spit out the needed
variables.

As for your second question, I can think of no legitimate reason to use flat
files rather than a database.  If you switch hosts you can easily transfer
the database as well as the scripts.  Most hosts have MySQL and if they
don't they just are not worth using.  Hosts are a dime a dozen these days
and you can easily find some that have MySQL.

Anything coming via get/post is a string, regardless of what it looks

[PHP] From static to dynamic

2001-11-19 Thread Steven Katz


I have a site which consists of a few hundred catalog pages. The 
items in the catalog are pictured 9 to a page with accompanying 
descriptions. The homepage features an item-of-the-day, as well 
as the past 3 featured items. The entire site is static and 
regularly updated manually by me. I don't believe it'll take much 
to fully automate the site, which is what I plan to do, or have 
done, over the next week or so. Now for my questions:

1. The dynamically-generated pages must remain indexable by 
search engines. That is, indexing robots must be able to crawl 
the entire site by following the various links to all of the 
catalog pages. Do the strings that are passed through the URL 
appear to search engines as dynamic, and therefore get ignored?

2. It's important that the site remain easily portable from one 
host to another. I have no plans to move it, but it would be nice 
to know that it would be a simple matter of plunking it down 
somewhere else if I needed to. Is there any advantage to using a 
flat file over mysql in terms of portability? How significantly 
would performance be affected, considering that it's not likely 
there will ever be more than 1000 catalog items (rows)?

I'd be interested in hearing how you'd put this together.

Well it's working now, and not because I didn't have gd installed, I did, do. 
I downloaded php-4.0.5 and ran the exact same ./configure line as in 4.0.6 
and it installed just fine, had no problem finding everything. Could there be 
a problem in 4.0.6 I wonder?

OK, it seems as though I was on the right track.  I cast the variables as
integers and all is well.  Thanks to Rasmus and his msg:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/mail/php-developer-list/199901/0485.php

A question remains: why are variables that are initially set to numbers not
cast as integers?

According to the manual variables are initially cast as integers if they are
created with an assignment to an integer number.  While this is the case
with variables assigned in code (i.e. $One = 16) it appears not to be the
case with GET variables passed via the URL.

It may appear that GET variables passed via the URL are cast as integers if
you do simple arithmatic or comparison, however it seems to me that they are
cast as integers because of the context of the math or comparison operators.

The bitwise operators, on the other hand, do not seem to cast the GET
variables as integers and require that they be cast before the expected
result can be had.  I am not sure if this was intentional, but it certainly
is confusing.  I think a blurb in the manual would be very helpful.

When you reply, can you put your response at the bottom? Makes it ieasier 
to read the chronological story. Yes, I know Outhouse puts you at the top 
- another 'feature' from MS.

No, I am not saying the code should look like that; what I wrote is 
pseudocode that just tells what the flow of logic is.

To put it simply, you are only asking for $r_hostname to be echoed, in 
that particular code snippet, if the value in $r_hostname is the same as 
the IP address. And I notice there is a syntax error or three in your 
snippet.

Now I guess that what you want to do is to add the remote hostname to the 
email only if it resolves and you get back a hostname rather than an IP 
address? If that is the case, then you want something like:

Note the curly brackets around the contents of the IF.

If you substitute the IP addresses 129.96.218.127 and 129.96.218.27 for 
$REMOTE_ADDR you'll see the first returns a hostname and the second 
returns just the IP address, so the first will print a hostname and the 
second won't.

2001-11-19 Thread Fred


I have 17 boolean variables which need to be stored in a MySQL database.  I
created a SET Column to store each of the boolean values as bits in the
column.  I should be able to test for the truth of a particular variable by
checking if the corresponding bit is set.

For example, if the first four variables are set (i.e. Column = a,b,c,d)
then the numeric value of the column is 15 or . To test for c I would
check to see if the third bit (4 or 100) is set.

I chose to do the check this way:

if ($One & $Two == $One) echo "True";

This does not seem to work in many instances.  Take the example above:
4 and 15 should equal 4
0100 and
 equals
0100

For some reason, my script gives  as the result of 0100 and .  It is
fairly clear that this is not the correct behavior of the bitwise &
operator.

Oddly enough, in some instances is works as expected:
16 and 17 should equal 16
1 and
10001 equals
1

My script has no problem generating the expected result here.

Perhaps this problem arises from the loosely typed nature of PHP variables,
but I do not see how it could.  Any pointers would be appreciated.

Remember that not all IP adrresses will resolve to a hostname. That said,
there may be a flaw in your logic in the code snippet above :-)

What you are saying is:

gethostname for IPADDR;
if HOSTNAME = IPADDR
print HOSTNAME

which will only work if the resolved hostname is the same as the IP
address; I suspect that is not what you want?

Unfortunetly, I have to responde to my own mail. :-)

The function I was looking for is quoted_printable_decode(string str), but if 
I apply it to all the string, I don't get what I want. Shouldn't this 
function see the =?iso-8859-1?q? and decode from there on, or do I have to do 
by hand with regular expressions?

By the way, isn't it different if the charset used is different? I mean, it's 
crear that I'm using iso-8859-1 here, but some one else could be using some 
other charset. Does it make a difference?

Been a while but I think that'll do it. If you don't want the

Well for one

> echo "\t  value='".stripslashes($last)."'>\n";

Both of these fields are called 'first' instead of 'first' and 'last' so the
last name is actually overwriting your first name.
Secondly, you are not using proper php variables into
delete_entry_confirm.php.  I'm guessing that this is an .html file because I
don't see an 'echo' statement in front, so the only way to send the
variables without using php code is to populate data in a form using hidden
input fields and a submit button called delete, or to use php and send the
variables like this:

echo 'DELETE';

Good luck.

Be careful with commas in any of the fields. You may want to separate
the fields with something like | or :: instead.

[PHP] phptriad / apache on windows question

2001-11-19 Thread christian calloway


Hi everyone,

I just downloaded phptriad, which installs apache/php/mysql/perl on a win
system. Im not sure on the language, but I want to be able to define virtual
directories. Currently everything under /apache/htdocs/ is accessible from
the browser, ie test.php located at c:\apache\htdocs\test.php can be
accessed on the browser url at http://localhost/test.php. Now if I wanted to
define say the directory web located at d:\code\web so that I could type
http://localhost/web/somephpfile.php in my browser how would I go about
making that association. Thanks,

Christian

Re: [PHP] query works in mysql, but not from php

You don't need to put in the final semi-colon when running a query from 
php. Take that out and you should be fine.

Re: [PHP] query works in mysql, but not from php

2001-11-19 Thread Christian Dechery


remove the ";" at the end...

mysql_query() doesn't need it... since it only executes on atomic command, 
the ";" is useless..

that's what's causing the error...

Through away the semicolon (;), that only tells the MySQL interpreter that 
the quiery should be executed.
In PHP, each call to the query function executes it.

[PHP] query works in mysql, but not from php

Hi

$sql = "SELECT user FROM persons WHERE user = '$firstName' and domain = '$domainName' 
; ";
$result = mysql_query($sql,$connection ) or die(mysql_error()); 

Calling above lines from php returns: You have an error in SQL syntax near ';'  at 
line 1

Issuing the command

SELECT user FROM persons WHERE user = 'fred' AND domain = 'company.net' ; 

in mysql give a proper result.

Can anyone explain what might be causing the error???

Where did you get the packages from?

Try php4win which has Apache+PHP4 with a bunch of other support
built-in. It should work `out of the box' on windows:

Are they always at the end of the string? No more anywhere else on the
line?

$string = str_replace('','',$string);
$string = str_replace('','',$string);

Or maybe..

$string = preg_replace('/()+$/i','',$string);

thanks,
That's what I did, and it works fine, was just hopping to find another way
than using cron, but still as a server-side script.

You can launch IE with an address as a paramater from task scheduler.

Example:

C:\PROGRA~1\INTERN~1\IEXPLORE.EXE

[PHP] fopen "r+" not working - how to add to beginning of txt file

2001-11-19 Thread Brian Tully


hey there - 

i've been going crazy trying to figure out how to add news items to the top
of an already existing txt file containng previous news posts. While I'd
love to change the system so everything is database-driven (as most of the
rest of the site is), this news area has so much news posts that it would
take forever to convert the info the database.

SO... i want to just create a simple script that adds text to the beginning
of an existing text file, without overwriting any previous text in the file.
The manual and php site refer to using the fopen function with the r+ option
- which i've done, BUT some if the text still gets overwritten with the new
next.

here's what I'm using:

 


What happens is that the line does get written to the top of the page but it
overwrites or deletes some of the existing text. Even though the r+ option
is supposed to put the pointer at the beginning of the file and add to it as
opposed to overwriting it doesn't seem to be working for me.

What am I doing wrong?

Is there a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

regards,
brian

[PHP] mail charset conversion

I have a small script that recieves mails and does some work with it. What it 
has to do, it does it great, for now. The problem is that some lines come in 
encoded (at least thats my thought). For example:

Martín Marqués -> =?iso-8859-1?q?Mart=EDn=20Marqu=E9s?=

Does somebody know which type of encoding is used here? And how do I dencode 
it?

I'll check with the tech support but nothng is mentioned on the website.
I can transform the method into GET on the form, and could call the script.
The only way I see so far is using thi URL as a default page in my Win
browser and automate sschedule the task in windows, but i don't like that.

Set up a crontab that uses wget to hit that page everyday at midnight.

You should use the flag in wget that tells it to delete the page that it
downloads.  I use that method sometimes.

an SQL file when submited. I am looking for a way to automate this task (ie
on a daily basis at midnight).
Any idea on how to do it in PHP? (if it is possible)

Thanks

Gab

You can just link to the file eg
download file

just make sure the path is correct.

Re: [PHP] Dynamic Navigation w/PHP

2001-11-19 Thread Matthew Moreton


My website has a navigation menu that is written to the browser depending on
what vars are set in the php script.  I store all the link names in an
array, then simply do a 'foreach' loop to write the output.  This would
allow me to add another menu item by just adding it into the array.

Simple example:

foreach($linkname as $key => $value)
{
echo "{$linkname[$key]}\n";
}

You could do something similar to this, when you want a menu item to be
enabled you could append it to the array.

VNC in a fine tool, but I think not needed for this.  Here is what I do
using WinCVS and Windows work stations.

I have three servers: one live web server, one development web server and
one completely seperate CVS server. Both web servers carry the same
Apache/PHP/MySQL setup.

At a work station (Windows for me) I checkout whatever (PHP, INC, HTML)
from the CVS server to my local drive.  I then edit it in Ultraedit and
save it via FTP to the development server.  Then I work, work, work,
crashing, banging, fixing with my browser pointing at the development
server.  Edits complete, I then "save as" to the local file name, do a CVS
commit and call it done.

Every so often, I will CVS Update the latest changes from the CVS
repository directly into the live web server and evaluate the web site. 
If things bomb, I will obtain a previous tagged-as-stable version of the
whole site (HTML,PHP,graphics) into the web directory and continue working
towards the next stable release.  If the development release works just
fine, I will tag the whole CVS repository with a new release description. 

CVS is proving quite effective at managing this stuff.

RE: [PHP] Re: Version Contol for PHP site

2001-11-19 Thread Chris Bailey


I'm maybe a little unclear on exactly what you want.  It says Version
Control in the subject, but then PHP debugging and such is discussed below.
To me the two are independent subjects.  So, some more general info...

For version control I'd suggest either CVS or Perforce, depending on budget
:)  CVS is obviously free, and is quite good.  You definitely want to run
the server portion of it on a UNIX/Linux box, but you can use it quite
easily from Windows with WinCVS or you can probably integrate CVS commands
into your editor (depending on your editor/IDE).  Perforce is a superb
source code management tool, but it costs money (although it's price is
reasonable).  It has some nice features over CVS (such as the whole atomic
checkin process, which once you use/work this way, you'll be bummed that
they don't all have it - I heard CVS 2 may do this if that ever happens).
You can get Perforce for free if you only have 2 (or less) users.  It works
very well on Windows and has a nice GUI.  You can also run the server on
Windows NT/2000.

Just about any version control system will work for your PHP, HTML, CSS, and
any other source code you have.  Basically they're all text files, and
that's where these systems work best because they can help with merges and
diffing and obviously keep track of differences between revisions.

You can do your development work on any platform and use typically
UNIX/Linux or Windows for a server for source control, deployment, etc.
Version control is just that, it is up to you how you employ it in terms of
your development environment.  I would think most people use it most
strictly for version control, and have scripts on their staging and/or
deployment system where they pull a snapshot of code down, do a "build"
(which may be compiling CGI scripts, or may just mean copying the files to
the appropriate place on the server), and then fire up the server.  Your
developers would do similar things, just on their own machine (I assume they
have a similar environment setup as the deployment, e.g. they're running a
web server with mod_php or whatever).

Hope that helps.

Re: [PHP] Re: Version Contol for PHP site

2001-11-19 Thread Joshua Hoover


John is right.  Use something like WinCVS.  Then you can either setup 
virtual hosts for each developer to have as their "sandbox" on the 
development server or you can allow the developer to run php on his/her 
own box and check in to the development server when they check into 
CVS.  There are pros and cons to each approach.  You have more central 
control with having the sandboxes on the dev server, but you might have 
an admin nightmare on your hands if configurations keep having to 
change, etc.  Letting the developer run PHP on his/her own box is very 
flexible, but may not mimic the production environment well enough.

Hope that helps...

[PHP] Version Contol for PHP site

2001-11-19 Thread Jeff Bearer


Hello,
I'm trying to come up with a workable solution to implement version
control for our site.  I have developers that use windows, and don't
know too much about the unix command line, so I'd prefer to use a
windows client to work on the site if possible.  

I'm looking into CVS for the version control and I've found some
directions on how to use it with websites.  But it only talks about
static HTML development, it doesn't say how developers would debug PHP,
CGI, etc.  This solution would not give them any ability to debug their
code before checking it back in.

I suppose if I could get them all comfortable with the UNIX command
line, they could work on the development server, checking out the files
to a working directory that is also a virtual host.

A new idea that I just came up with would be to have the developers use
VNC viewer to connect to an X server on the development box. The
deveopers could use a X GUI for CVS to check it out, and edit files etc.
and keep the working directory a virtual host like above.
 
Is anybody doing something like this with their PHP development?  Any
direction from a working implementation would be great. And what do you
think about the VNC idea that I just came up with?

[PHP] PEAR: nextID() mysql

2001-11-19 Thread Chris Dorr


My ignorance with databases will probably show here, but I haven't been 
able to solve this myself so I thought I'd post.

I'm working on converting a DB driven site using mysql specific commands 
to the PEAR DB method.

One of the fields I have in my mysql database is a auto_increment 
primary key (will show below).

On my php script I used to use mysql_insert_id to get the id (number) of 
my last insert so I can pass this to the next page (multiple tables).

When I tried to use nextID(), it kept creating "_seq" tables in my DB 
depending on what I specified as the sequence(argument). This causes a 
problem because it returns 1, because there's nothing previously in _seq 
table.  The real _seq or auto_increment is in my table chamber(described 
below).

My question is: is there anyway to make nextID() use the 
id/auto_increment in the table I've setup previously and have id/data in 
rather than having it create _seq and rewrite all of my code??

Hope I'm clear.  If not drop me an e-mail.


Thanks

Chris D.

[PHP] Adding another person to an e-mail to: address

2001-11-19 Thread Anthony Ritter


Hi,
Thanks to all that helped me out yesterday.

I'm using PHP with Apache on a MS Windows 98 box.

I would like to include a cc to another e-mail adresss when sending an
e-mail.

In addition I would like to *receive* and *also have the cc person receive*
this e-mail as well.

Right now, I am receiving an e-mail but not the other person using the
following script.

Using the variable and concatating the string to read:

$to.="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";

does not seem to work.

How do I go about configuring this script so that both of us - the *to*
person and the *cc* person can recieve the same e-mail?

The script:



\n";
$mailheaders.="Cc: $other_email\n";
$mailheaders.="Reply to: $sender_email\n";
mail($to,$subject,$msg,$mailheaders);
?>
..

In the above script:
I received an e-mail but *not* the cc person - Linda.

However, when I hit "reply" to that e-mail, both:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

showed up with Linda's as the cc.

O.K. That's half the riddle.

I'm trying to have both myself *and Linda* receive
an e-mail...not just me.

So I tried the following script by concatating the string
$to
...


mailto:$to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";;
$to.="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$other_email = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$subject="Web Site Feedback";
$mailheaders="From: My Website<>\n";
$mailheaders.="Cc: $other_email\n";
$mailheaders.="Reply to: $sender_email\n";
mail($to,$subject,$msg,$mailheaders);
?>


 Simple Feedback Form 


 The following email has been sent: 
Your Name:

Your email address:

Message:  



.

And after using *that* script neither of us receive an e-mail except that it
gets bounced back as:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

So, it seems that somewhere the string in

$to

is getting fouled up.

Any ideas?

Many thanks for your time and help.

Kindest regards,
Tony Ritter

[PHP] HTTPs ????

2001-11-19 Thread Scott Fletcher


Hi Everyone!

I have the HTTP reference book.  Honestly, I don't know a lot about HTTP
language or protocol.  I am supposely to write the HTTP script to connect to
the one of hte machine on the internet, then use authentication, then send
data and receive data, then close the connection.  It is a pretty basic
thing.  But I noticed it doesn't work at all.  I can write it in PHP using
hte PHP Header.  But the truth is it doesn't do anything.  So, I am lead to
believe that it meant I'm not finish with hte script.

So, anyone where can I find a good documentation on using HTTP in PHP
and making it work?  I looked around on the internet and it isn't very
reliable.  I checked out the book stores and no luck.  I appreciate all of
the help I can get on programming HTTP in PHP.  Here's the HTTP script in
PHP and not a bad start for a HTTP beginner.

  $eq_one = "10xxx";
  $eq_two = "test";
  $eq_three = "DIAL999ZIDNT99xxxM3 J02";

[PHP] configure problem: --with-mysql=/what exactly?

2001-11-19 Thread James Green


Hi all,

I have Debian Sid, I have Apache installed by source, and am trying to
install the source of PHP4.0.6. For reasons I won't go into, I cannot
use the Debian packages of Apache or PHP.

The problem is when I come to configure PHP with mysql support. I have
MySQL debs installed: mysql-server, mysql-client, libmysqlclient10-dev.
I can see the mysql libs in /usr/lib/, and the headers in
/usr/include/mysql/.

I have tried the following, each time removing config.cache beforehand:

--with-mysql=/usr
--with-mysql=/usr/include
--with-mysql=/usr/include/mysql
--with-mysql=/usr/lib

According to a friend with mysql Debs installed it should be the first,
yet PHP tells me each time it's using the bundled MySQL version and to
be careful of running it with other mysql-using modules.

Any ideas why configure doesn't pick up my local MySQL installation? It
certainly picks up the currect socket path.

Many thanks,

James Green

Re: [PHP] Dynamic Navigation w/PHP

2001-11-19 Thread Andy Woolley


Hi,

You could try using a DHTML menu like the one at
http://www.milonic.co.uk/menu

The array of elements needed can be generated using PHP based on certain
criteria.

Let me know if you or anybody else would like a PHP script creating so that
you could generate menus based on values that you have in PHP.

Regards
Andy.

[PHP] Re: Dynamic Navigation w/PHP

2001-11-19 Thread Julio Nobrega Trabalhando


  Well, I don't really get what is your problem here. :-)

  You said people must 'enable' pages to have it available. Is it not only a
matter of checking this 'enabled' flag? For example a database table with a
column named 'enabled', and others 'link' and 'text':

(example for mysql)





  The only thing I see different is the 'enabled' at the $sql command,
telling only to select links that were selected to be show. I guess you
would also want to put 'AND user = $some_user' to select only links for a
previous autheticaded user.

[PHP] Dynamic Navigation w/PHP

2001-11-19 Thread Mike Elkins


Hello All,
 
I am looking for example code demonstrating the ability to dynamically
modify website navigation based upon data in a database. Specifically what I
am trying to figure out is how to control what pages are available based
upon whether they have been "enabled" in the database. I am developing a
template driven website, with content controlled by the database which
indicates what the customer has opted for. While ten pages might be
available and part of the web site template, a given customer may have only
paid for four, thus when his site is hit, only those four pages will be
available in the navigation elements. Should the customer care to request an
additional feature (page), simply accessing the database and enabling it
would make it immediately available.
 
Any suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

[PHP] POST files with PHP

2001-11-19 Thread Daniel Reichenbach


Hy,

I'm trying to post image files to a php script with another php script.
Don't ask why, it's a crazy project :)
Now the file is around 28000 bytes but the post receiver only gets
around
300 bytes. Has anybody experienced this behaviour?

I use the following script:

--- snap ---
http://www.server.com/post.php";; 

// the file to upload
$file = "/var/www/test/dummy.jpg"; // the file location 
$con_type = "image/jpg"; // the file mime type 
$content_file = join("",file($file)); 

// define boundary 
srand((double)microtime()*100); 
$boundary =
"---".substr(md5(rand(0,32000)),0,10);
$data = "--$boundary 
Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"userfile\"; filename=\"$file\" 
Content-Type: $con_type 

$content_file"."--$boundary--\r\n\r\n"; 
$msg = 
"POST $remote_page HTTP/1.0 
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=$boundary 
Content-Length: ".strlen($data)."\r\n\r\n"; 

$f = fsockopen("www.server.com",80); 
fputs($f,$msg.$data); 
$result = fread($f,32000); 
fclose($f); 
print $result."\n"; 

?>

[PHP] Newbie Question about a counter

2001-11-19 Thread Jeff Williamson


I've modified a couple of php scripts that are working quite well.  They are
simple form/email scripts.

I have hit a road block with a counter that I need.

I need a counter that starts with i-1 and will increment by 1 after each
confirmation of a reservation form.

I don't necessarily have to store this in a database.  As long as the E-mail
is forwarded correctly the confirmation numbers are put into the PC
manually.

Can anyone point me to a script that I can modify to do this?  I've searched
the popular scripts archives but must be looking in the wrong categories.
If you can suggestion some categories that would help in my search, that
would be great too.

Thanks,

Jeff
