[PHP] Re: Encryption

2002-01-25 Thread Alan McFarlane

As far as I'm aware, as long as you use the same seed or salt value,
encrypting material will always yield the same results. However, remember
that not all servers have support for mcrypt... You may find it better to
use something simpler like md5($seed . $data), where $seed is a unique (and
hireable) value that you have created.

Re: [PHP] Passing objects

2002-01-25 Thread Jeff Sheltren

Well, PHP has 'sessions' which allow you to do just what you are asking,
pass variables between multiple pages.  Sessions are somewhat like cookies,
but all data is stored on the server instead of the client, so you don't
have to rely on the user to accept your cookie.

Here's a short intro/tutorial that may help you out:

You really need to learn to read the fine manual - chapter on "Handling file

[PHP] Encryption

2002-01-25 Thread Anas Mughal

I am totally new to encryption.
My question is very simple.
If I use the mcrypt module to encrypt and decrypt some
data, would it guarantee to work consistently with
future versions of the mcryp module (or PHP versions).

(i.e. Would decription always give me the same
result?)

Thanks.

That could be what is happening. I'm generating data for students to 
analyze on one page with the hidden form and generating a graph of 
the data with the next page. The only thing generated is the image. 
If I date/time stamp the image file I could serve that up on the next 
page...it would be good to get the right graph to the right student. 
Might be worth a try.

Curious that it works with Mac IE and Win Netscape but not Win IE.

Make sure you've copied the contents of the c:\php\dlls folder to your
system directory (\windows\system, \winnt\system32, not sure 'bout 2K).

Your extension_dir setting in php.ini should be

extension_dir = c:/php/extensions/

And make sure you've copied your php.ini to your windows directory
(\windows, \winnt, again not sure 'bout 2K)

everything made and compiled ok.

when I restart apache I get this:

to get apache running again I have to copy my backup libphp4.so.

I know it probably has something to do with an older version of gdlib but
I'm not sure.

My box is a Cobalt RAQ4.  If anyone has any ideas please help :)

Hi Ben -

Although we're not in Southern Cal yet, we do have a course in Michigan 
which you might be interested in.  You can call 1-866-745-3660 toll free 
for more information on it.  If you've already been through a couple 
books, that's plenty to get you started in our course - we spend less 
than a day on beginning basics and progress quickly after that for an 
entire week.  I can promise you you would get proficient quickly and not 
be bored.  :)

Best of luck.

Occasionally. The point of threading is /follow/ a conversation not
build upon it each time by repeating. Generally accepted net etiquette
is to quote only what is necessary for someone picking up a thread in
the middle to get the general idea. (and of course to quote the points
you are responding to :)

I just thought your post was a little over detailed for what you were
actually asking. I didn't mean to cause offense hence the friendly way
of expressing my point as opposed to the 'well I'm not actually swearing
so it's OK to flame people right?' approach.

Thanks for the tip, but I find that a more verbose message makes 
explicit what I am asking.  How many times have you seen "I break my 
code with this error message:  (error message.)  Please help meEee!!!" 
and that's it.

Do you suggest this tip whenever someone includes the contents of the

In fact, a couple of times over the course of this week I've opened an 
email from Nick Wilson saying "Please post more information about your 
problem if you want us to help you."  Which I think is appropriate, and 
I'm not criticizing you for this.  But it takes a few extra seconds out 
of everyone's day to read messages like this, even those of us with high 
speed access.  Don't you agree that if everyone took a few more words to

This is not true to my mind.
define ("INC_DIR",$foo);
this "Constant" is not predefined by the developer, BUT it is
a constant-value for the rest of the script. To my mind such
"constants" make sense, because
- they are global
- they can't change their value while execution
- it doesn't matter if the constant-value is set dynamically when defining
it
So I would be glad to see this feature in PHP5.

No I don't have a procedure to retrieve the new file name that's what I am
looking to do. I don't know how to write that new name into the database.


Picture name is the file name that is being inserted into the database (THIS
IS THE OLD FILE NAME)from the html form.

The browse field is named 'picture' (see all code below) the name that the
database is capturing is not the new name of the fill ie. not the one that
has the date inserted at start.

Thank you for your help

That's exactly the point of the break statement, it was designed to be
used in a switch statement to 'break' from the statement.
It replaces the need for complex and untidy 'if else' monsters.


Try to keep your posts a little shorter 
if only for the sake of the dialup users ;)

RE: [PHP] break statement usage

2002-01-25 Thread Darren Gamble

Good day,

Actually, using the "break" statement is the accepted, proper way to break
out of a switch statement, just as it is in other programming languages.

And yes, the "break" statement can be used to terminate other loops, such as
"while" and "for", just like in other languages.  Using it there is not
considered bad programming practice either, although in the case of the
while statement you should try to utilize the loop condition if possible.
FYI, the command to break to the next iteration of a loop is "continue".

The PHP site has very good documentation on the usage and appropriateness
for "switch", "break" and "continue".  I would highly recommend you take a
look, if you have not already.

Subject: [PHP] break statement usage


Hello, all

I have a quick question about using the "break" statement from within a 
switch() statement.

After accepting user input from a form, I want to run this input through 
some error checking via PHP code (not Javascript error checking).  So 
the first thing is the code puts the input through to a couple of error 
functions (this is all inside of a switch statement that is determined 
by a radio button on the previous page).  If the error functions show 
the input as invalid, I echo back a specific error-message telling the 
user which field needs to be fixed, and then "break" to end the case 
statement.  That way the input never comes near the database functions 
(mysql_query()) if it is invalid input.

Is this a poor way to code -- using the "break" as a shortcut to jump 
out of the switch statement?  Are there other ways that "break" can be 
used -- such as from loops?  I've been learning Python on the side, and 
in that language, the "break" statement is used often, sometimes in a 
loop like

while 1
   do some code
   if condition is true
  break

This is basically an infinite loop until the condition is true -- though 
I've never seen a WHILE loop in PHP that is formed this way (using a 1 
to make it happen infinitely until a condition is met and then BREAKing 
out of the loop).  Usually, at least from what I've seen, PHP WHILE 
loops are constructed so that they terminate when a condition is met 
specified immediately after the WHILE, as in:

while (x < $number_of_iterations) {
 do some code
}

So what I'm wondering is,

Is it bad coding practice to make heavy use of "break" statements in 
switch() flow control?

Thank you for your opinions,

Erik

I understand your concern of this PEAR-DB x Metabase merger may open a
precedent that will motivate others to come along with their components
and propose mergers with other PEAR-DB components.

I think that is a good precedent because it will let PEAR components
implementations evolve, of course by keeping backwards compatibility to
not break the applications of people that rely on the current
implementation of PEAR components.

Of course, like with PEAR-DB x Metabase, no component merger should
happen if the interested parties do not agree with the terms of merger.
If a favourable decision is made, it should be because the agreed merger
terms were beneficial to the interested parties.

Here interested parties means, the proposing authors and some PEAR
representatives preferrably elected in a democratic process to evaluate
proposals and make decisions regarding them. Currently there is nobody
elected as PEAR representative but if I got it right it should happen
some time soon.

Regards,
Manuel Lemos

Or... if you really just want to count the number of lines in a
file... do this:



This offers the advantage of having the file loaded into an array,
since... chances are you want to do something with it after you spit
out how many lines are in it.

Check out $HTTP_USER_AGENT
It contains all you need.

There is a good tutorial on this at www.sitepoint,com (you'll have to
search) and all the other good sites have covered it.

eg,
www.phpbuilder.com
www.devshed.com

Have fun.

[PHP] Install wddx extention for php 4.1.1

2002-01-25 Thread Ziying Sherwin


We tried to install php 4.1.1 with wddx support on our Solaris 2.8 with
gcc 3.0. We installed expat library 1.2 (download from 
http://www.jclark.com/xml/expat.html) and wddx 1.0a. We also installed 
apache 1.3.22 which comes with expat support).

We configure our php with the following options:

 --with-xml 
 --enable-wddx
  --with-expat-dir=/depot/package/expat_1.2

However, we keep getting the following error messages:

   In file included from internal_functions.c:66:
/site4/web_kit_1.0_rodgers/php_4.1.1/ext/wddx/php_wddx.h:26:19: expat.h:
No such file or directory

There is no header file called "expat.h" in either expat 1.2 package or 
apache 1.3.22 package. Did we install the wrong expat package? Which
package do we have to install in order to get wddx compiled in php?

Re: [PHP] dynamic variables in sq?l

2002-01-25 Thread Mehmet Kamil ERISEN

With my respects to your design may I suggest the
following:

1- Table:
CARS
car_id car_name active_flag price
1  BMWY  100
2  FORD   Y   50
etc.

Then in your form you can hava a dynamic LOV:
$sql = "select car_id, car_name
from cars
where active_flag = 'Y'";

$result = mysql_query($sql);

echo "";
while (list($car_id,$car_name)=mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
 echo "$carname";
   }
echo "";


Then when the form is called you will pass the car_id.

your sql will be

$sql = "select price from cars where car_id = '$car_id'";

$result = mysql_query($sql);
$car_price  = mysql_result($result,0);
//or
//$car_price = mysql_fetch_row($result); 

I hope this helps.

RE: [PHP] Question: $_* etc or $HTTP_*_VARS etc

2002-01-25 Thread Gonzalez, Zara E

Hrm. Thanks. Apparently they didn't feel like listing $_FILES here:

http://www.php.net/release_4_1_0.php

$_GET - contains form variables sent through GET 
$_POST - contains form variables sent through POST 
$_COOKIE - contains HTTP cookie variables 
$_SERVER - contains server variables (e.g., REMOTE_ADDR) 
$_ENV - contains the environment variables 
$_REQUEST - a merge of the GET variables, POST variables and Cookie variables.
In other words - all the information that is coming from the user, and that from
a security point of view, cannot be trusted. 
$_SESSION - contains HTTP variables registered by the session module 

(no $_FILES)

Ahh well. Now I know. Thanks.

I read in the manual that $HTTP_*_VARS has been 'replaced' by $_* is this

Subject: [PHP] Outreaching (announcement)

Hi all!

As posted some time ago, the company I'm working for developed a GPL
system 
for project development (basically keeping in touch with the customers
while 
developing a project). I think this project may be of some interest for
some 
of you (well, hopefully, for may of you), so here's the manifesto:
__

OPT (Outreach Project Tool) is a PHP general-purpose virtual commonplace
for 
customers and developers to collaborate in developing projects. The
system 
provides documents archive, e-mail archive, request tracker, task
management, 
knowledge base, news administration, newsletter support and a lot of
other 
features (some project-based, some system-based).
__

Hope this may help some of you with your customers! The current version
is 
0.9 (beta - the first public release), but it's stable and comes with a
nice 
setup interface (yes, I have been thinking of you guys). This release
has 
been tested for more than eight months in a production environment, with
real 
customers.

So, the URL is http://sourceforge.net/projects/outreach - and you know
my 
e-mail for complaints :-)

Win95, 486-100Mhz, 16MB Ram <-- Was speedy apart from the dodgy hard disk
Win95, 486-25Mhz, 8Mb Ram <-- chugs along quite nicely as a personal web

I think either of your two configurations would be more than sufficient as

RE: [PHP] Reg Exp Help

2002-01-25 Thread Zach Curtis

YES! I was working that out as well.

One correction though, this line should read:
$temp_int_id = trim(substr($file_array[$i], 21, 4));

I guess the lesson learned is to use substr() when the length of the $string
is fixed. Since I have to use substr() and trim() twice, I wonder if this
has more or less overhead than a single regular expression?

Thank you.

[PHP] dynamic variables in sq?l

2002-01-25 Thread Raymond Lilleodegard

Hi all!

I have this form with some choices:


Enter how many cars you want:

ford
bmw
mercedes


And then I am trying to get the price out of a table in my database with
this code:


$sql = mysql_query("SELECT '$car' FROM varetabell where carid='$carid' ");
$myrow= mysql_fetch_array($sql);
$x = $myrow["$car"];

$price = $x * $number;


Shouldn't this work?  Or am I missing something here?



Best regards Raymond

If you're sure that mysql_fetch_array is always returning an array with
a single element, you could use implode to convert the array to a
string...

$series = implode('', mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query( ...

Check http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.implode.php for details on
the implode function.

Re: [PHP] How to echo the "/n", "/r", etc... to the HTML display?

2002-01-25 Thread Stefan Rusterholz

I suppose "sp" is space?

Two suggestions:
Why don't you do

(print here the string as-is. newlines and spaces will be kept as they are
by the browser)


Another Possibility:
$string = preg_replace("/\\s/", " ", $string);

I hope I addressed your problem and didn't miss the point

[PHP] Must results from MySQL fetches always be an Array??

2002-01-25 Thread René Fournier

This is sort of a "is there an easier/better way" kind of question. No 
error or problem, but I'd like to know how others handle it.

I'm fetching single elements of data from several tables, then piecing 
it together. Here's an example of one element I need to fetch:

$series = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT key2 FROM models WHERE 
lang='$lang' AND recordname='$model'",$db));

Now I realize that with this function $series will always be an array, 
even if it contains just one element (which it does). What I'd like to 
know is, can I write that statement so that $series is created just as a 
string? (So that I don't have to write "$series = $series[0];" 
immediately afterwards in order to treat $series as a $string.)

RE: [PHP] Reg Exp Help

2002-01-25 Thread Zach Curtis

Hmmm.

I am searching thru a flat file that has been loaded into an array
($file_array[$i]). As each iteration of the array is loaded (each row of the
flat file) , I was trying to search for this unique combination.

The $password is not unique. And $int_id is not unique enough (e.g., "a",
"b", "c", etc.) to be searched for on its own. However, $password and
$int_id joined together is unique.  Also, the $password and $int_id are in a
fixed position in each header row, however, not every row in the flat file
is a header row (no...I didn't create a flat file in this way!).

I am confident the correct regular expression would resolve this. I will
keep thinking about substr() and trim(), but I don't see how to use those to
resolve this issue.

Yes if you want to compile php_imap.dll yourself than you need all these
tools, but luckily kind folks in the PHP community compile it for you. So if
you download the full binary from www.php.net
(http://www.php.net/do_download.php?download_file=php-4.1.1-Win32.zip) you
can simply include it in php.ini.
So I do not at all understand the provider's problem.
I would not recommend using dl(), because a) I think it has been deprecated
more or less and b) it is not so fast.

[PHP] How to echo the "/n", "/r", etc... to the HTML display?

2002-01-25 Thread Scott Fletcher

Hi!

I have been working on this part for a few days now!  It had become
appareant that HTML is not able to do this, so I'm trying to get it to work
in PHP but no luck!  The string I see like this is when I run the UNIX
command "od -av  |more".

--clip here--
del  cr  lf  cr  lf  cr  lf  cr
020   lf   P   A   G   E  sp   1  sp  sp  sp   D   A   T   E  sp  sp
0401   -   2   5   -   2   0   0   2  sp  sp   T   I   M   E  sp
0601   0   :   3   8   :   1   4  sp  sp   P   @   F   E   P  sp
100   sp   V   0   0   1  sp  sp   T   C   A   1  cr
--clip end--

So, you see, if I use the PHP function, nl2br(), that took care of the
"cr" and the "lf".  But it doesn't take care of the "sp" so how do I fix
that?  This "sp" when work correctly will be able to justify the text on
each line.  Anyone know?

thanks,
 Scott

The password and int_id begin and end in fixed positions.

password begins in position 13 and can occupy up to 8 characters
int_id begins in position 21 and can occupy up to 4 characters

Sometimes a password (or int_id) may occupy all of those fixed position or
only some of the fixed positions, it's variable.

RegEx can be expensive. Always ask "do I need one?"

In this case, use a string find to locate the // and the following \n (or whatever 
marks the end of line on
your/supported OpSys), then substring or string replace.

If would be quite interesting to see a performance comparison on this - if you've got 
time...

PS if you were working with alpha-text and had to consider upper and lower case, then 
things might sound very
different!

I honestly don't know, as I don't run PHP as a CGI. However... if
there is a problem with this, I would be inclined to think that it

[PHP] Reg Exp Help

2002-01-25 Thread Zach Curtis

I am trying to code a regular expression that will match at the beginning of
the string the contents of $password, followed by 0 or more occurrences of
white space, followed by the contents of $int_id. The match should be case
insensitive.

Here are some examples of the strings:

This one has a 6 character $password, followed by two white spaces, followed
by a single character $int_id
9a9b9c  z

This one has a 8 character $password, followed by zero white spaces,
followed by a single character $int_id
7d2ad345b

This one has a 5 character $password, followed by three white spaces,
followed by a four character $int_id
d22ad   bbaw


Here is the regular expression I am trying to use that does not find the
match and produces "Warning: REG_BADRPT".

(eregi("^\$password+[[:space:]]*+\$int_id", $file_array[$i]))

Any corrections? Thanks in advance.

[PHP] RE: Uploading a file

2002-01-25 Thread Mikusch, Rita

Sorry if this is obvious but . . . have you checked whether your server is
running in "safe mode"? I had the same problem and finally realized that it
would NEVER work cause the webserver was running in safe mode. (Disclaimer
here -- I'm no sysadmin and don't know if Linux even has a safemode!)

I'm not sure how to get around this. There are certain specific people I'd
like to be able to upload PDFs to the webserver. But I don't want them to
have full FTP privileges. I guess one solution would be to find/write an FTP
program that you can use to give people limited upload privileges -- for
example they can only upload into one specific directory and they can only
upload pdfs. I haven't found any such program, so I guess I could write one
-- if I knew how to write an ftp program :) PHP has an ftp module I believe,
though I'm sure my ISP passed on installing that one.

Any ideas, no matter how outlandish, are much appreciated. 

So many cool things to learn, so little time. Rita

Nah... the search engines don't care at all. However if you're
picky, you can rename the file from "index.php" to "index" (or
whatever you want) and then add a ForceType via Apache's .htaccess
like this:


  ForceType application/x-httpd-php



Put... that step is really for "cleanliness" of the URL, as the

I don't think there are any resources that address that because it's 
really very broad and to some extent a bit subjective.  Your point about 
your hosting provider already providing ASP is part of that.

"It's already provided for free" - well, you're not getting 100% of that 
machine.  There may be 200 other accounts on there, all of which affect 
your performance.  Same is true in shared linux accounts, no doubt, but 
my experience has been that LAMP is better at resource sharing/balancing 
without bogging down (anecdotal only - I have no hard proof).  But if 
you're noticing slow downs on your site, especially if you're getting 
decent traffic, you have to upgrade to a dedicated machine.  At that 
point, the licensing costs come in to play, although MS has extremely 
competitive ASP (app service provider) plans for hosting SQLserver, ASP, 
etc to try to minimize the cost for hosting providers doing dedicated 
machines.  Free is still free, and they can't quite beat that yet.  :)

If you're stuck in 'hosting' environments, you'll be hard pressed to 
show the cost savings, because it's often $5-$10/month difference for 
comparable ASP or LAMP setups.  The difference comes in, imo, in 
upgrading to full server(s).  You've got the one time hit, plus the cost 
of PCAnywhere or something (you could live with VNC I guess) to do 
remote admin, plus the security track record.

I'd be happy to discuss more of this with you if you want to take it off 
list if this is getting too offtopic.

Nick,

Dunno, but in my experience (and that of a few people who also opened bugs
on it) any path info that is not "real" causes the CGI to bomb out with an
"Internal Server Error".

So while this will work: index.php?foo=bar
This will not, since there is no physical directory "foo" and no file "bar":
index.php/foo/bar

That will still cause a problem though won't it (i think I wrote my

use of a .htaccess to force php to treat a file called 'index' as a php

[PHP] Question: $_* etc or $HTTP_*_VARS etc

2002-01-25 Thread Gonzalez, Zara E

I am going through some code that I wrote recently and trying to change it so
that I can turn register globals off in my php.ini. However, before I do that I
want to make sure I am using the right variables.

I read in the manual that $HTTP_*_VARS has been 'replaced' by $_* is this
correct? Should I be using $_* syntax then? 

The only reason I am asking instead of trusting the manual is because I'd hate
to have misread something and thought I understood it, recoded my site, and then
realized I used the wrong variables. So if someone could just tell me one or the
other I'd be happy.

(Oh I'm using php 4.1.1 if that makes a difference since I believe the manual
said the $_* syntax started at 4.1.0?)

Thanks,

Zara

Re: [PHP] What if 1,000 people access the database at one time?

2002-01-25 Thread Miles Thompson

Phil,

To start with MySQL tables aren't sorted unless some type of maintenance is 
taking place, and many of those operations can be done on copies of the 
tables. Check http://www.mysql.com/doc/T/a/Table_maintenance.html for more 
information.

Given that, I would expect the person maintaining the database would take 
it off line.

The "sort" is handled by the way in which you use ORDER BY in your SELECT 
statement, so it doesn't affect the underlying table structure. MySQL 
is  thread-safe, so different users can execute SELECT and UPDATE's 
simultaneously. A SELECT wouldn't affect an UPDATE.

In terms of timeliness of UPDATEs and SELECTs, that's almost a non-issue as 
one cannot know in advance what will be updated or inserted.

To ensure that the search engines like you and your pages, you can
make your URLs appear more normal by doing something like this:

URL= http://you.com/index.php/cars/ferrari

Then... in your code you can access the additional data by looking
at the $PATH_INFO variable:

This is really better suited to the mysql list but anyway -
In your case If Al started the sort first the update would wait until
the select is finished for the update.
MYsql has this wonderful feature called table locking - so an update
needs to lock the table preventing access to it.
So your data wont get stuffed, you'll just get the typical MYsql
slowness when you've got a lot of updating and reading going on.

You need not suffer this get a database that doesn't block readers (eg
Al wanting to read the table while bill updates it) use something 
like Postgresql (postgresql.org) or Fierbird (firebirdsql.org) both are
free.

Or you could use INNodb tables in MYsql as they don't block readers
either. But MYsql is missing a lot of basic stuff like sub selects so if
you have a choice dump MYsql.
MYsql is not noted for its performance with a lot of concurrent
connections.

Some will, some wont. The trick is to use something like this
index.php/cars/ferrari using Apache's backward searching feature.
Together with a very simple .htaccess you can fool Apache into looking
for the dirctory 'ferrari' and when it doesn't find it look for the dir
cars (php assigns these values to the vars $page and $subpage) and when
it finally finds index.php you can feed it those vars and let it do its
stuff.

I can't remember all the details as it was ages ago that I did this on
my site but you can find a very good tutorial on www.sitepoint.com
you'll have to do a little searching as it was written quite a while
ago but it'll be well worth your while.

[PHP] Connect to Mail-Server

2002-01-25 Thread Martin Thoma

Hello! Somewhere I read something on how to connect to a mail-server
with php and to send and receive mails on a very "basic" level (calling
"Helo" to the mail-server and so on). Does anybody know, where I can get
those information exactly?

[PHP] What if 1,000 people access the database at one time?

2002-01-25 Thread Phil Schwarzmann

So let's say Bill is accessing a MySQL table and is about to UPDATE some
information on a particular row.  Meanwhile, Al is doing a sort on that
same table.
 
Couldn't Al's sorting possibly screw up Bill's updating??  Or does
MySQL have some built in functions that prevent this?
 
Thanks!
Phil



[PHP] Building my site... again

2002-01-25 Thread Torkil Johnsen

I started my HTML career back in the days when the newest MS Word-version
came with a "save as html"-function. I saved as HTML, read the code, and
learned by myself bit by bit. By the time I got my hands on HTML for
dummies, I realized I was no dummy after all :) But now, asking this, I feel
kinda dumb...

Its got to do with PHP, search engines, meta-tags and headers.

I am building my site like this:

- I have an index.php-file, that takes two variables, page and subpage. A
link on my site may look like this:
 (for instance)

Now, my index.php-file will do this: (basically)


if($page){
include($page . ".inc");
}



and my cars.inc will do this:

if($subpage){
include($subpage . ".inc");
}

Now. I would of course like for my site to be listed in the search engines,
and I wouldn't mind getting search hits on both cars and ferrari. But. Will
the web spiders and web crawlers ever follow a link like
index.php?page=cars&subpage=ferrari and will they ever index what they find
there, and, and, and, and...

Well... does anyone understand what I'm asking here? WOuld this be a good
way to build my site to ensure getting hits from search engines, or should I
do this some other way? Anyone know?

This is a good point.  I'm using the LAMP scheme right now for my 
employer (though I haven't yet explained the advantages).  I'm hoping 
that, when I'm done, I can provide a report explaining how much was 
saved by going with open source solutions -- right now the only two 
purchases made specifically for my project were

1) Mac OS X 10.1
2) Extra memory for the Linux server

(and I'd like them to buy me the full version of BBedit so I don't have 
to use the "lite" -- $89 upgrade)

Is there a resource that helps me weigh the cost-effectiveness of the 
choices I made?  (Note that the savings aren't as great as you might 
think -- we already have Oracle and a hosting service that provides ASP, 
but I wonder what the licenses would have cost us.)

[PHP] Re: Printing JPEG images generated with ImageJPEG with IE/WIN

2002-01-25 Thread Martin Thoma

Hm, it could be that IE tries to reload the picture (which isn't there
anymore because the form-data has been expired). Perhaps saving the
picture temporarly on the server will prevent the problem.

You can also use

window.innerWidth
window.innerHeight

(at least in Opera 4.x+ and NN4.x) or use

document.body.clientWidth
document.body.clientHeight

(in IE) or through the DOM (Document Object Model,
see http://www.w3c.org):

document.body.offsetWidth
document.body.offsetHeight

This might be helpful for you as well...

Try Macromedia ColdFusion Studio 5.0, it has PHP syntax highlighting and
is very customizable (Code Snippets, Code Completion, ...), but it's not
primarily focused on PHP...
