Re: [PHP] Code Structure/Errors
Quick soln. is to put a "@" symbol in front of the error generating line.
E.g.@$i++;
actual soln. would be to do some initialization like
$i = 0; outside your while loop and $last_name="";

[PHP] Code Structure/Errors
I'm just curious if there's a way to restructure my code so as to avoid
getting "Undefined Variable" errors. I keep getting them and I know they're
nothing to worry about for the most part, I'd like to get rid of them
without turning off error reporting if possible. In the following code, I
get an undefined variable error for $i and for $last_name, is there anything
I can do to actually define them? $last_name is a variable produced by my
MySQL query, $i is just a counter:
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
extract($row);
$i++;
if($i=="1") {
print "\n";
}
if($last_name) {
} else {
}
...
if ($i=="5") {
print "\n";
$i=0;
}
}

Re: [PHP] Can't set a cookie? [SOLVED]
I've recently been learning about cookies myself, and had the same problem with "" vs. 0 (PHP Fast&Easy Web Development showed the "" in their book). I know that setting the expire parameter to 0 is supposed to kill the cookie when browser is closed, but I can't seem to make that happen. I've closed all browser windows and the mail client, opened a browser again, and the cookie is still active (let's me get back to a "protected" page). Only a full reboot seem to totally clear the cookie. I've been using the time function instead, which is fine, but I'm just curious why 0 doesn't seem to work. Is there something else besides the browser that could be holding onto the cookie? I tried closing MSN Messenger just in case, but it didn't make a difference.

RE: [PHP] Can I use a template with this site?
Hi Ian,
I don't know if I'm getting the hole idea of what you're looking for,
but here's something. I'm using a schema that was written by Ying Zhang
for the "myMarket" PHP application which is like this:
a) One "main file" which holds all the site's configurations, like DB
settings and golbals (OO Script). It also contains an object that will
call the scripts locations:
[snip]
/* define a generic object */
class object {};
/* setup the configuration object */
$CFG = new object;
$CFG->dbhost = "localhost";
$CFG->dbname = "dbname";
$CFG->dbuser = "dbuser";
$CFG->dbpass = "dbpassword";
$CFG->wwwroot = "/directory";
$CFG->dirroot = "/directory";
$CFG->templatedir = "$CFG->dirroot/templates"; // Here's your standard
files
$CFG->libdir = "$CFG->dirroot/lib"; // Lib for DB & custom handling
$CFG->imagedir= "$CFG->wwwroot/images";
[snip]
b) When every page is called (i.e. /news/index.php), all the files
required to make that page look like you want to, all the "templates"
are called like this:
include("mainfile.php"); // needed before any else
include("logobanner.php");
include("navbar.php");
include("leftmenu.php");
// HERE'S YOUR PAGE'S CONTENT
include("rightmenu.php");
include("copyright.php");
I'm using this schema every since I found it, 'cause it is teaching me A
LOT and is very handy when I need to change something like the header of
footer of a hole site.
Hope this helps you.

FYI, a simpler way to do that...
$fndWrds = "wrd IN ('" . implode("','", $kywrd) . "')";
That aside, w/o completely analyzing your entire set of code, it sounds
like John is on the right track with putting a unique index on the wrd
column.

RE: [PHP] Determine week
You'll need a combination of date() and mktime().
I'm too lazy to write the exact code right now, but date('w') will
return the day of the week, 0 = Sunday, 6 = Saturday. Then use mktime()
to subtract the number returned from date('w') from the days component,
and you'll have the start of the week. 6 minus the result of date('w'),
added to the day component of mktime(), will give you the end...

Why not merge your PHP and HTML straight up like this?
Then, just have the whole HTML file parsed as PHP.

Anything do with PHP AFTER it's reached the browser (ie, dynamically doing
stuff with pull-downs) is a JavaScript-type issue. PHP happen on the server
BEFORE it reaches the browser.

[PHP] Sharing form information
Hi,
Hopefully I didn't send this to the wrong list...:-)
I have a couple of questions if you don't mind... the PHP
help files seem to be very vague with respect to html issues.
Questions: How can I get the "selected" info from a selectbox that is in
another form on the same page... I've tried everything I know to be able to
get this. For instance, if a selectbox is part of $f1 and I'm submitting
using $f2, how can I get the selection from the $f1 selectbox and use it in
my $f2?
Also, how can I insert a "textbox" or other items into a cell? The
input_text belongs to $f2 and I need to insert it into a cell. for example
the following doesn't work properly as it inserts it, but on a submit..
again the values don't belong to $f2.
insert($t,$c = cell());
insert($c, input_text(array("name"=>"matrix",
"value"=>"$ohms",
"size"=>"15",
"maxlength"=>"15";
Thanks.
Re: [PHP] printf()
Well I figured out a solution. Using a combination of explode() to
create an array from $bar,
check to see if $bar is an array and
feed the array to vprintf()

Re: [PHP] Parsing Text File
This is all really straight forward stuff. Here's some code that will get the file parsed to an array, what you do from there is up to you. Note: if you have a precise structure for your lines you can say to read from point a to b using substr(). For example, let's say the first name is exactly 3 characters in from 0 and exactly 10 characters long so you could do substr($line_array[0], 3, 10); This is a really dirty way to handle this and I'm sure there are better ways so poke around a bit. Also if you have your phone number located down to a specific location you can use an explode statement to get both area code and main number seperated. - Original Message - From: Jason D.

I maintain a mixture of Linux, FreeBSD and Win2k servers. I know a lot about the Unix platform, it's structure and it's pros and cons. However, once again you have made several claims about how it is 'better' than Win2k but without evidence to back them up. Why is Unix more flexible? I can't think of anything I can do on Unix but not on Win2k. Why is it more secure? I have been running several Win2k servers for nearly 2 years and am yet to have a major security problem (I am certain that the reputation IIS has gained in relation to security is due to incompetent admins, not the product - a side effect of making it relatively easy to configure).

[PHP] Can I use a template with this site?
Hi All, Hope you are all well. I am coding a website for a client and they involve a series of files: logobanner.php navbar.php leftmenu.php main.php rightmenu.php copyright.php These are all just simple HTML files which are placed in a Global dir apart from main.php which is in the same dir as the index.php file. Is there a way where I can have one index.php file which calls all the Global files and only the relevant main.php file? Kind of like a simple template system? For example at the moment I have this for my dir pattern: /global/ -logobanner.php -navbar.php -leftmenu.php -rightmenu.php -copyright.php /home/ -index.php -main.php /news/ -index.php -main.php When /news/index.php is called, all the global files are called along with the main.php that is in the News dir, the same for all the others in their respective dirs. Am I overlooking an important function or script that can do this without being too complicated? Please let me know, Ian. --- Randum Ian DJ / Reviewer / Webmaster, DancePortal (UK) Limited [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.danceportal.co.uk DancePortal.co.uk - Global dance music media -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Regular expression newbie question, convert this: [::word1\" word2 \" word3::] to : ".word1 " word2 " word3."
hi,
i was developing an application that will read in the content of a html
file. and within this html file contains php variables which will be
replaced using the eval() function with its required value. and within
this html, i want to be able to run php functions. however, due to the
fact that characters need to be escaped so that eval() can process it, i
have to make use of addslashes() to escape all " that are embedded in
the html file.
with the " escaped, eval() will be able to work and evaluate the php
variable and instead of:
eval("\$rs = \"$phpVar\";"); (won't work)
it will now be:
eval("\$rs = \"$phpVar\";"); (work)
and to call a date() function on the above text, this format will work:
eval("\$rs = \"".date("m d y")."$phpVar\";");
since the text that is passed into eval() came from a html/php/inc
(whatever you name it) file, there is no way you will know that a
particular text is in fact a php function.
so i thought of prefixing and suffixing php function with [::date("m d
y")::] and it will be helpful in the sense that the application will
know that oh, this is a php function, i need to ". ." it so that eval
will not throw me an error.
with that, now the html file's content will be something like:
[::date("m d y",$phpVar)::]
after using addslashes(), it will be:
[::date(\"m d y\",$phpVar)::]
for the above text, in order for eval() to parse correctly, it has to be
in this format:
eval("\$rs = \"".date("m d y",$phpVar)."\";")
and there is always a chance that the html text could contain more than
1 block of [:: phpfunction ::]
thats why i came up with that piece of code to convert the text to a
string that eval will be able to understand. and at the end of it, i
will be echoing $rs to display the final result.
you probably will wonder why dont i use include() and require()? that
way, php will be handling all the above without requiring additional
work. however, due to the way the result has to be handled, i couldn't
use include nor require.

[PHP] Parsing Text File
I am trying to input data from a text file into a MySQL database and would like to be able to input the data using a single script. What's the easiest way to parse a line, such as below, and turn it into variables to be placed in the database. While I can simply place the data in by importing from a file, it's not quite so easy. I only need to place some of the data in, plus I would like to split one of the fields. Below is an example of a line from the file, and then the variables that I need to enter. Here is an example of a line from the file: Number,City,State,Country,Provider,Isdn,56K,CreateDate,Active,Timezone,ModDa te,ModNote 403 -770 -4904 ,CALGARY,AB,CAN,T2,Y,Y,Apr 29 2002 12:00:00:000AM,I,GMT-0700,, As for variables, I need the following: Split Number into $AreaCode & $Number > 403 & 770-4904 $City $State $Country Thanks for any help.

[PHP] Search - 'AND' ... 'OR'
Hey all, I am in the middle of writing a script to allow users to search through news archives on my website. Anyhow I am just wondering which logic you believe best suits a search. i.e. say a user types in 'games AND playstation' then only results containing both those words will be returned by the same token they could type in 'games OR playstation' then results containing either word will be returned However if a user does not explicity join there search critiera i.e. 'games playstation' what should I assume? What would you expect? Google for example wacks an 'AND' inbetween which is wise considering they are searching billions of pages however my site obviously will only be searching a few hundred so maybe I should assume an 'OR'? So basically I just am curious to know what you would expect when entering multiple critera. Regards, Scott

It needs the time to be something not null. If you mean to set 0, use

I imagine I'll run a big query, save the id's needing edit in a file than have a script hit all those, pulling text/varchar fields, using strtr() to make changes and updating. I suppose I could have the script just do the 1st 10 in the file, remove those from the file, then I'd recall the script. I imagine this might take 10/20 minutes. Am I missing some internal MySQL feature that would do this? Hmm, what about running strtr() on a mysqldump-ed file? Any advice/links appreciated. Please CC me. Thanks a lot!

specified pattern and do the necessary replacement throughout the whole
string.
preg_match_all("|\[::(.*)::\]|U", $longTxt, $matchedResult);
for ($idx = 0; $idx < count($matchedResult[1]); $idx++) {
$extract = stripslashes($matchedResult[1][$idx]);
$longTxt = str_replace("[::{$matchedResult[1][$idx]}::]",
"\".$extract.\"", $longTxt);
}

Re: [PHP] PHP timeout
Hmm, I haven't heard of such a thing. That's kinda weird though because just yesterday I modified my timeout settings for my script that parses logfiles that are several thousand lines long, and it worked. Did you perhaps forget to reboot the server? If you have my suggestion is perhaps taking a look at FoxServ, it is a very good server that auto configures itself on your machine with apache and the whole lot. www.foxserv.net - Original Message - From: Kim Bauters Sent: Saturday, June 15, 2002 5:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] PHP timeout I'm running PHP script that check for the existance of certain pages on the web.

Re: [PHP] Downside to using login sessions?
Well, all passwords on my sites are stored md5'd, so i'm comparing an md5() of the password they have supplied with the one stored in the DB, so I don't need to know what the original password was -- only if the two encrypted passwords match. Since md5() is one-way encryption, it makes sense to store the password in a cookie this way as well, so that people digging around can't possibly figure it out. I guess leaving the password in plain text in the cookie opens a small security hole which is unneccassary, as long as you're storing an encrypted password in the database.

Re: [PHP] Downside to using login sessions?
As a general rule it is always good to store data that is secure in a encrypted format. My website for example uses a mysql database and I store the encrypted mysql password in the cookie so I get somethign like 435gcg34tsskhj57 to equal 123. It's far more secure because cookies are on the user's computer and anything there is not secure, regardless of who the owner is. - Original Message - From: Leif K-Brooks Sent: Saturday, June 15, 2002 5:53 AM To: Justin French Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Downside to using login sessions?

Re: [PHP] Confusion with the $_name $_type $_size Variable Extensions
I know it has nothing to do with filesize because I am the server and I set the

}
All that is included within a main program and when you send data out from this it
gets looped back into itself with the global statements, that's the idea anyway.
However, $File_name always turns up null, (as well as the other operators) which makes
uploading not possible.

-Lakario,
Please have a look on
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php for more information
on fileuploads in php.Also check with the size of the files you have
transferred.When file size is large, then your files won't get uploaded.This
is due to the low execution time,If you don't mind please send your programs
to dig more.

Subject: [PHP] Confusion with the $_name $_type $_size Variable Extensions
I am having a lot of trouble with the $_name, $_size, and $_type
variable extensions. I have a basic file upload system however it is
within a function. Sometimes when I declare the aforementioned
variables in a global statement such as global $file_name I can get a
value for _name, other times, I get nothing. Can someone clarify
this because I was unable to find anything in the manual?

Re: [PHP] Downside to using login sessions?
How is it currently storing it? Sessions are fine, depending on how the code is written, and the obviouse downside to COOKIE based sessions is that they will break on non-cookie browsers, so a smarter move is to use URL based sessions. A more focused question will of course result in a more focused answer :) Justin French on 15/06/02 6:59 PM, Leif K-Brooks ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > I am planning to change how my site stores logins to using sessions. > Are there any reasons not to do this?

I have been running several Win2k servers for nearly 2 years and am yet to have a major security problem (I am certain that the reputation IIS has gained in relation to security is due to incompetent admins, not the product - a side effect of making it relatively easy to configure).
