[PHP] listing dates ranges
I am writing a php front-end to create dynamic queries on a mysql database, and i'm a pretty new programmer! I want to offer the user a date range, and the dates I want to use are stored in my database: 2002-02-17 2002-02-24 2002-03-02 2002-03-09 2002-03-15 ... and I can select them, but what method can i use to list them out in a drop-down side-by-side so the user can select the range? Select date range: 2002-02-17 to 2002-02-24 2002-02-24 to 2002-03-02 2002-03-02 to 2002-03-09 2002-03-09 to 2002-03-15 2002-03-15 to present any help appreciated! thanks, rory -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Database Development Price Inquiry?
We calculate the charge by $75-$150 per hour depending on complexity of the project, then quote customer the final price. On small projects, < $5000, its usually half before project, and half after project. For project > $5000, it's usually 30% up front, 30% when we have major features completed, 30% when delivered, last 10% when finalized. On even large projects $15k+, we usually go by phases.

Will this still work with straight html? You can't have your cake and eat it :) What you require can only be done client-side which means the only sensible solution is javascript. But, what are the undesirable effects of just pressing enter? I know that in IE pressing enter to submit a form is not the same as clicking on the submit button. If that is what you are referring to then it's very easy to code around that and thus would not require javascript. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk /* Yow!

Re: [PHP] Fetching 1 array from either one of 2 possible columns?
The problem is in your SQL query. Try it as: $sql = "SELECT * FROM links WHERE (SUBJECT1='$subject' OR SUBJECT2='$subject') AND GEOGRAPHIC='$geographic' ORDER BY ORGANIZATION ASC"; The AND operator has higher precendence than the OR, so given that you didn't have parenthesis, it was interpreted as SUBEJCT1='$subejct' OR (SUBEJCT2='$subject' AND GEOGRAPHIC='$geographic') and I'd bet that in the example you ran $geographic was not equal to 'Brazil' otherwise you'd have gotten a hit on the second row as well. cheers, thalis On Thu, 14 Mar 2002, Laurie Landry wrote: > I'm working on a query by selection type of form, where if a user > selects a subject to get information.

[PHP] Fetching 1 array from either one of 2 possible columns?
I'm working on a query by selection type of form, where if a user selects a subject to get information. Each database entry will have 2 subject fields, Subject 1 being the main subject and Subject 2 being the cross-subject. A table is set up like this: +--+--+--+--+--+-+ | ID | Organization | URL | SUBJECT1 | SUBJECT2 | Geographic | +--+--+--+--+--+-+ | 1 | Acme | www | Math| English | Canada | | 2 | Loony Toons | www | Comedy | Math| Brazil | ... The idea is that the query will check the database to see if $Subject has a match in either Subject1 or Subject2. the geographic is an optional selection. If I select Math as a subject, and left the Geographic option unselected, I want it to go into either Subject1 and Subject2 to find Math. In this case both records would be a hit. Below is my query setup and formatting: *** $sql = "SELECT * FROM links WHERE SUBJECT1='$subject' OR SUBJECT2='$subject' AND GEOGRAPHIC='$geographic' ORDER BY ORGANIZATION ASC"; $sql_result = mysql_query($sql); if (!$sql_result) { echo "Can't execute $sql " . mysql_error(); exit; } // organizes data in an orderly manner (ie bulleted area) while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)) { $esc_organization = $row["ORGANIZATION"]; $esc_desc = $row["DESCRIPTION"]; $esc_url = $row["URL"]; $esc_subject = $row["SUBJECT1"]; $esc_geographic = $row["GEOGRAPHIC"]; $organization = stripslashes($esc_organization); $description = stripslashes($esc_desc); $url = stripslashes($esc_url); $subject = stripslashes($esc_subject); $geographic = stripslashes($esc_geographic); $option_block .= " http://$url\";>$organization $description URL: http://$url\";>$url\n"; } Now, of course, if I were to use this, it will only use the Subject1 data. How do I tell it to use the results from either Subject 1 or Subject 2? Thanks in advance, Laurie M.

[PHP] More newbie help - mixing 2 different things into one database
Hi, In this example: I'm trying to introduce the selection data from another table in the database into this form. The form is a simple form where if missing any data, you're redirected back to the page to form but with data filled in some areas that you had filled in before. Now, instead of manually inputting the selection fields for subjects and countries which will continually be updated, I've included a database where in another form, if there's a new subject to be added to the database, the user will go to a different form and fill in the new subject. That works. Now, I'm trying to call in those data and put it into the selection option blocks - it doesn't' work, and I don't know why? I've created a test page that calls in those option blocks on its own, and it works, and the form with the manually-inputted subject titles or country titles works on its own as well. Somehow the two doesn't mix well, and I'd appreciate help in this matter. Thanks in advance, Laurie M.

[PHP] Cascading of environment variables when running a Perl script from PHP.
Hi, I'm trying to call a Perl CGI script from PHP. I use the system or exec commands. That works fine. I've basically got that sorted out. As a test, i ran a CGI script which returns all the environment variables that the script can see. When I run it from the command line, I get one set which are MY environment variables. That's fine. I expect that. If I run the CGI as a web process ie http:/server/.cgi, then I get a set of environment variables which reflect the web server environment. Eg. the Path, REMOTE-USER etc. Cool. But if I run the CGI via PHP, I get another completely different set of variables. These seem to reflect the environment that the server is running in, not anything to do with the Apache server varaiables that are neccessary for web pages. Can anyone explain to me what's going on? Why does PHP appear to destroy the variables of the CGI environment? Can I make sure that when PHP calls the CGI Perl script, that the Perl script has access to all the appropriate environment variables. The Perl script in question accesses these environment variables because it is a CGI script in and of itself.. Because my work environment is mixed Perl and PHP, It wuld be great to be able to integrate them a bit so that we can use Perl generated HTML inserted into a PHP page when appropriate. Any insights much appreciated. Thanks, Norman Cates -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Database Development Price Inquiry?
Hello everyone, I'm in the process of revising my db development prices, and was wondering what the best practices were. I want to keep my prices low, but I often feel like I'm not charging close to what I should be charging. 1) What is the going rate for Database Development (MySQL+PHP or any other combo)? 2) What (or how) do you charge for MySQL+PHP database applications? 3) What do you factor into your pricing? We currently package our prices by the project. Example, we would charge one flat fee for an online database application. This would include everything from start to finish. Sometimes this works out, but other times it gets painful and tedious. I often feel like I'm not charging as much as I should be. 4) What is the best practice for db development pricing? Flat fee or hourly based? Do you charge based on the number of hours spent (anticipated) or by the project complexity and/or size? 5) Do you charge in stages or upon completion? For example, do you charge after the planning phase, development phase, etc. Or, after the project is complete? I'm especially interested in hearing from the West Coast (USA) developers. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -john -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] Re: Calling a javascript function?
In this case you're talking about building the Javascript dynamically. Example.. --- function echoPHPOut(out) { document.write(out); } "; } ?> --- It's a very round about way of printing a string based on a set of criteria. You could run complex Javascript functions in the same way. But realize that Javascript only works through the browser.. so whatever you output from the PHP script must be a full fledged and functioning Javascript. -Kevin -Original Message- From: David Johansen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 4:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Re: Calling a javascript function?

We recently went into lengthy discussion about this. No there is no a way to call a Javascript function from PHP. But you CAN send a Javascript the input it needs to decide which function to use. You can either have the PHP script generate the Javascript dynamically. Or if you need to run a remote PHP script then you can have it send back to the Javascript input through the URL string (GET method). -Original Message- From: David Johansen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 4:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Calling a javascript function?

[PHP] PHP-CGI and script files not found
Can someone confirm the following that was sent to me by my hosting provider. If have php script file that can not be found throwing 500 errors instead of 404 errors. ~~ Because PHP-CGI is a little strange, you (as far as I know) apparently can't set up any sort of custom 404 error for it. PHP-CGI works like this: When Apache gets a request for a filename ending in .pcgi, it sends that URL to a system-wide alias to a global PHP binary (which itself is just a CGI script). When you send this global PHP binary the URL of another script, that PHP binary takes the filename you sent it and attempts to interpret it as a PHP script. However, because the file you're sending the PHP binary doesn't exist, there's nothing for PHP to do, and it just quits. Hence, you get a 500 error (because the systemwide PHP binary didn't spit anything out). Because Apache immediately sends the file.pcgi to the systemwide PHP binary, there's no way for it to check if the file exists. If you can find a workaround we can implement, we'll gladly do it, but I've looked and to the best of my knowledge, there's no way around this.

If the stuff's going to end up in a database anyway, or if you really want to provide a robust transaction environment that can survive disconnections and long delays, this is useful. If you're just doing an "add a comment to a guestbook" script, then it's almost certainly not worth the effort. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I would just perform an INSERT into your tempmebers table right away setting whatever fields you have at this point. Then as I pass through each data entry page, I would do UPDATES to that record updating only those new fields, leaving the old ones alone and thus preserved. This way you only have to pass a record ID and the new parameters on each page thus eliminating moving data through the URL. Yuk. Anyway, that's what I would do. >- >-This process worked well for a while until I discovered if users enter a >-single or double quote into any of the fields, it fecks everything up.

[PHP] Temporary MySQL Tables
Hi, On my site now, there's a lengthy register process where the user has to fill in 5 forms, one after the another. I get the PHP script to echo the values from the previous into the next form by using "; ?> for example. Then I keep carrying the information over to each extra form until the user reaches the last page and I insert all the info into a table called "tempmembers" with an extra timestamp field which I use to verify email addresses. The user gets an email saying click here to verify your membership with the username and timestamp in the URL. The users clicks it, and I run a SQL command that copies the row from "tempmembers" into the "members" table. This process worked well for a while until I discovered if users enter a single or double quote into any of the fields, it fecks everything up. So I added an addslashes command but it's all getting a bit hairy so I was looking for some advice on MySQL temporary tables for either using after every form or at the end of all the forms. Or does anyone have any other method I could use??? Thanks for any help you might have. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I don't know what ramifications it will have by denying apache read access to a directory. But what the poster asked for is a standard apache directive so the prudent approach would be to set this from within apache and not through the OS. > Am I wrong? I really don't know.

I'm not trying to argue, I just want to make sure that *I* understand how Apache works -- I thought that if you deny "read" access to a directory to Apache, then it won't list the files, but as long as Apache still has "execute" access to the directory then it should still serve files from it. Just like using "ls" in the shell, you can read files in a directory you cannot read, as long as you can execute the directory and know the exact filename. Am I wrong?

Re: [PHP] Session Varaible Problem
Have you made sure that the correct values are even being loaded into the session variable containers? IOW, try echo $id; echo $first_name; to make sure that there is actually any value in those variables.
