Re: [PHP] php created pages's create time
So use the Header() function to send an appropriate Last-Modified timestamp. PHP can't possibly do that automatically as it does not know the last modication time of the actual dynamic data that you send. -Rasmus On Tue, 27 Aug 2002, lin wrote: > Dear Sir, > > we use php4.1.1+apache put html pages to IE from mysql DB, We find the > created pages's create time is not availability, this let me a lot of > discommodity, our webpage cann't index in yahoo etc. search engine. > > please help me, let me know how to avoid it. > > > Mr.lin > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] PHP: XML/XSL
Hi everybody,
I'm using Sablotron to transform XML with XSL and this is the PHP file:
\n";
$strXhtml = $strXhtml . "\n";
$strXhtml = $strXhtml . "Balance:\n";
$strXhtml = $strXhtml . "\n";
$strXhtml = $strXhtml ."";
//echo(trim($strXhtml));
include("XSLTransformer.php");
$xml=$strXhtml;
$xsl="testing.xsl";
$transform = new XSLTransformer();
if($transform->setXsl($xsl)) {
if($transform->setXmlString($xml)) {
$transform->transform();
if ($transform->getError() == 0) {
echo $transform->getOutput();
} else {
echo "Error transforming ",$xml,".\n";
}
} else {
echo "",$xml,": ",$transform->getError(),"\n";
}
$transform->destroy();
} ?>
I'm getting the following warning although I'm sure that if I applied XSL
to the XML file without php, it's working. Plz can u help me and tell me
what could be the problem?
Warning: xslt_process(): supplied argument is not a valid XSLT Processor

[PHP] Tricky question - referrer from ousite, or from intern?
Hi there, I have a tricky problem which I honestly think is not possible to solve. However maybe I am wrong. As you all know it is possible on php.net to pass a function name just behind the adress (e.G. php.net/function-name) this will redirct to the propper page. I did the same thing with member sites (e.G server.com/member-name) Now I am starting a referrer programm. Every member who follows a link like from anywhere on the net and registeres will be tracked and the referrer gets a point. Now I did forget that I do have several of this links on my site itself :-) Which means that they have been aquired on my site by accident :-) My question is how can I make sure that they do come from outside and are not surfing my site already. I do set a coockie as soon as someone enteres this adress, but it would be fantastic if I could do a if statement on something to make sure he does not come from my own site. I would like to keep all the links like that, just to find a way to track the origin of the user.

Re: [PHP] Re: Output Compression & output buffering..
Basically the included file containing the error handler is like so ->
-
--
In another file, I start compression like ->
if ($compress == '1')
{
ob_start('gz_handler');
}
-
Then at the end of the script I have ob_end_flush();
I believe the sequence of events are correct.
I just so happened to pass by zend.com, and in the newsletter #100
from the 26th, there is a blurb about ob_gzhandler being broken. Im
running php 4.2.2, so it may apply to me, as Im getting
the blank page that its describing.
Thanks for your help.

Hmm, as mktime returns a unix timestamp it'll be constrained by that;
currently the unix timestamp covers a range from 1 Jan 1970 to (mumble)
January 2038.
However, if your date is stored using one of the mysql date or time
formats, why not try using mysql's DATE_FORMAT to pretty it up as you
select from the db? IIRC some of the date column types have a range of
around 10,000 years, which should meet your needs.

[PHP] Re: Forcing browsers to use cached pages
>Is there any way to force a browser to use a cached version of a page if the >user hits the back button? "Force" might be a bit too strong, but there are a bunch of headers about Cache-control and Expiration and such-like that you can convince a lot more to cache a document than do without the headers. But there's no way you'll get every single browser to all do the same thing with caching. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: Output Compression & output buffering..
Hi Gerard,
I never had any problem using output buffering...
Do you correctly dump the buffer when an error occurs ? I suppose you have
built your own error() function, a bit like this one :
exit_on_error($msg){
ob_end_clean();
echo $msg;
exit();
}
can you tell us a bit more concerning the way you handle the exit of your
program ?

Re: [PHP] FW: Need example of Next 5>>
Do you have phpMyAdmin on your server?
Because when it displays a table with more than 30 results, it splits it
into pages of 30. The brilliant bit is that it always displays the query up
the top of the page, so you can learn what's going on.
You want to read up on LIMIT in the MySQL manual.
In short, SELECT * FROM 'mytable' LIMIT 60, 30 Will return rows 60 through
to 90.
Then you need to dynamically generate your next and back links, which pass
some kind of offset to the query:
next 10
Your query might look like:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT {$_GET['offset']}, 10";
Good luck.

Re: [PHP] Forcing browsers to use cached pages
There is no way to force the behavior, but you can exclude the HTTP headers that tell the Web browser to not cache the pages. Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate Pragma: no-cache Expires: etc. I believe PHP may include some or all of these when you use session management. A browser that adheres to these HTTP headers will explicitly not cache pages, and the "no-store" directive of the Cache-Control header actually forbids the Web browser from even storing a copy of the resource. IE ignores the "no-store" directive and treats it like "no-cache" instead. I believe most (if not all) Web browsers will cache resources when not forbidden to do so. You should just be able to use the header() function to overwrite these values. Happy hacking.

Re: [PHP] filter files in a directory
You need to have a look at the regular expression functions like ereg,
eregi, ereg_replace, eregi_replace and the preg functions.
The manual itself doesn't document regular expression pattern matching that
well, but there is a reasonable starter article here:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/dario19990616.php3
Anyhoo, rather than testing for
$files != "*.config"
you need to test for
!ereg('.config$', $files)
which means if the file doesn't END with .config.
Similarly, you could also rule out .. and . with another regular expression:
!eregi('^.', $files)
Revised code, untested:

Was this before supplying the password or after?
I believe this log entry may be normal when authentication fails.
I also believe the message you got on your browser means that the 401 error

http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php also mentions that http

work the way I wanted in "both" IE and NN. The pop-up pops up. The jpg and
pdf, etc. files open in the windows. If it's an xls or some such file, the
dialog asks if I want to save or open. Whatever my response, it knows the
filename and behaves as requested. Hard to believe. :) I believe the key
was to add:
header('Cache-Control: public');
Any thoughts as to why this is needed for MSIE.

Among other stupidities, some versions of IE require that you provide *both*
date and directory, or *neither*, but not just the date.
In addition, Cookie expirations more than 2 years in the future are assumed
by some browsers (and by the Cookie spec) to be BOGUS, so 2010 is going to
mess up some browsers.
It's also a Bad Idea to bury 2010 in there anyway. What's gonna happen if
this code actually survives through 6/20/2010? Bam! It breaks for no
apparent reason and some poor schnook (maybe you) has to go figure out why.
Use $expDate = time() + 60*60*24*365*2; for the maximum two-year Cookie
time-out. (Roughly two years, natch.)

mktime() will not work beyond mid-August of 2038 on 32-bit machines.
This is because Unix time-stamps count time by marking off the number of
seconds since 1/1/1970 midnight:
12:00:00 01/01/1970 == 0
12:00:01 01/01/1970 == 1
12:00:02 01/01/1970 == 2
.
.
.
12:01:00 01/01/1970 == 60
.
.
.
??:??:?? ??/??/2038 == 2147483648 == 0x ==
0b
After that you either "wrap around" back to 1970, or you buy a 64-bit
machine and extend your time range another century or so.
MySQL *probably* has some data types that can handle much larger dates, and
probably has something like mktime() only different (different name, and
handles bigger dates).
So your best bet is to figure out what MySQL data type will handle the full
range and precision of the dates you need to work with:
http://mysql.com
Another alternative may be as simple as:
$months = array(1=>'January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June',
'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December');
$enddate = explode("-", $datereuslt[0]);
$month = $enddate[1];
$year = $enddate[0];
$finaldate = $months[$month] . ' ' . $year;
It's crude but it will work for any year no matter how distant.

Add "or error_log(mysql_error())" to the end of this, so if your database
goes down or something you'll have a record of it in your Apache log.

Get rid of all the () except for count(*).
The rest of them are bogus.

NO.
$result is *NOT* your information.
If your SQL is broken, you'll get nothing output here.
You should again have:
or error_log(mysql_error()) at the end of the mysql_query() statement.
If everything goes well, though, $result *still* won't be the information
you want.
It will be a "result identifier"
That's a fancy way of saying it's like a little ticket at the meat counter
in your grocery store so you know whose turn it is.
You need to use http://php.net/mysql_fetch_row (or similar functions) to get
your actual data.
In this case, since you only get one answer, I would just use:
echo mysql_result($result, 0, 0);
to see the answer you want.
Actually, it will be more like this:
$taken = mysql_result($result, 0, 0);
if ($taken){
echo "Villa $place is not available between $book_start_date and
$book_end_date\n";
}
else{
echo "Villa $place is available from $book_start_date to
$book_end_date\n";
}
mysql_query() never returns your actual data -- It only returns an
"identifier" so you can go get your data.

Every user has a unique ID when they log in, right? And every message has a unique ID, right? create table messages_read( user_id int(11) unsigned not null key, message_id int(11) unsigned not null key ); When they read a message: $query = "insert into messages_read(user_id, message_id) values($user_id, $messages_id)"; You can then use this in the query that gets the messages for display: select blah, blah blah, messages_read.user_id from messages left outer join messages_read on user_id = $user_id and messages_read.message_id = messages.message_id where blah, blah, blah The "left outer join ..." part is the new bit in your query. Notice also that I've added "messages_read.user_id" to the columns you select. As you iterate through the messages to display, either: 1. messages_read.user_id is their $user_id, and they've read that message or, 2. messages_read.user_id is NULL because there was no row in the messages_read table, so they ain't seen that message yet.

You might try:

MySQL support is "optional" and whomever set up this server needs to enable

Also, version 4.1.1 is "old" and they really really really ought to upgrade

Maybe put the trim() "outside" the str_replace()...
Also be sure you don't have a hard-coded newline in your HTML/PHP source
inside the tags.
I also would use htmlentities() rather than htmlspecialchars() personally...
Probably arguable what's "right"
You may also be the victim of Windoze/Unix/Macintosh newline issues.
Perhaps try:
# Convert Windows to Unix:
$msg = str_replace("\r\n", "\n", $msg);
# Convert Mac to Unix:
$msg = str_replace("\r", "\n", $msg);
before you do the "\n> " part.
You may also wish to consider using textwrap (wraptext?) before you do the
"\n> " part, since some people's mailers will not wrap outgoing text.

If it's not obvious where the value is coming from, whether they have register_globals "on" or "off" isn't really going to help. If the code is that messy, then they'll probably have something like: in one file, and then start using $i out of the blue 37 files later, and 'i' is *such* a great variable name, isn't it? register_globals "off" only stops the over-riding of un-initialized variables from the "outside" world (GET/POST/COOKIE).

It's the right solution for a [bleeped]-up world, but that doesn't make one not wish for a better world.

It's almost-for-sure in your logic/code and not really in PHP...
Source code needed.
At a guess, I'd say that you are doing session_start() and/or the relocation
in such a way that the variables are *NOT* getting saved when/where you
think they are.
I think you're probably over-using header("Location: ") and are just going
to be having problems until you stop using it so much. It's really designed
for web pages that *MOVED*, not as an alternative to programming logic.

[PHP] Re: Dynamically Downloading Data
>Is it possible to select data from a database and have it be available for

Yes, of course :-)
Here is a tab-delimited file of upcoming events from 'whatever' table:
= now()";
$upcoming = mysql_query($query, $connection) or error_log(mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($upcoming)){
echo implode("\t", $row), "\n";
}
?>
You may or may not want to add something like:
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
to force a download, as well as review the posts of the past few days (and
seemingly every week or so for the past 5 years) about how to force the
browsers to pick a "nice" filename for the "Save As..." box.

IE is stupid.
Really, really stupid.
Not that Netscape is any smarter, or anything, but IE is really really
really stupid.
In particular, their hack to have embedded documents in a browser and stuff
rely on the URL of the thing being downloaded and when you start crossing
that with your .php URL and JavaScript's popup windows, all hell breaks
loose, as you've noted.
Things you *might* try:
1. Rename the getdocfile.php to getdocfile.htm and force Apache to make it a
PHP file.
2. Get rid of the ?file= part, and just use
/Value('filename')?> and then use $path_info in your
getdocfile.htm script instead of $_GET['file']
3. Whoops. 2. conflicts with 3. You maybe be "stuck" with something really
stupid like using:
/Value('filename')?>.htm and then
inside of getdocfile.htm you'll need to de-construct the foo_pdf.htm back
into foo.pdf to get the file you actually want.
Yes, your URLs will now look very strange, but remember how stupid IE is?
It's really stupid.
4. You may even need to go so far as to have the popup window have a META
tag to re-locate to the actual document you want, so that only an HTML
document is the first thing to appear in the popup window. Again, IE is
really stupid, and as soon as you cross a popup with a non-HTML document (of
certain types you have begun to discover empirically) it screws up.
I never have figured out which/why/when IE screws up popups with non-HTML
content and don't really care cuz I hate popups... But it's a known issue,
and there's not much you can do about it other than make IE happy by
following the adage: "Don't do that."

[PHP] Output Compression & output buffering..
In an included file, I have an error handler that is using the 'output buffering' trick to dump a page in progress to display the error page. I also happened to have a switch to turn on output compression. When output compression is on, if an error is comitted while the page is displaying, I get an empty page, instead of the expected error page or the page hangs, depending on the browser.

Do a trial with the same code below but put a sleep(120) right before the
copy() line, and have a window open on the directory D:\harly\images\ and
hit F5 a lot to refresh it. See if the file DSC00447.jpg (or whatever)
appears before you try to copy it. If not, why not?
I'm also getting more than a bit nervous about this harleyuppic_fsp.php on
my second read-through...
Are you trying to do a header("Location: ") or something before you deal
with the uploaded file? You can't do that. PHP is gonna nuke the file that
uploaded as soon as the script that "catches" it ends. You *must* copy that
file or otherwise preserve its contents within that script or it's *GONE*.

!= doesn't understand the glob (*) character, so the easiest way to make
your example work is to use a regular expression match. Something like:
if ($files != "." && $files != ".." && !preg_match("/\.config$/", $files)) {
should do the trick. However, if you anticipate adding any more filters
on the listing (.cfg, .txt, .conf, etc...) you might want to come up
with a more general way to add filters besides simply tacking on stuff
with &&. One thought might be to keep an array of patterns, and do a
match on the whole array. When a new file needs to be filtered, simply
add an entry to the array, keeping your code more-or-less clean.
It's up to you, though.

[PHP] Date conversion problems
Having a little trouble with converting dates.
I have, in my database, a bunch of dates stored like this: -M. Month is
obviously the number of the month (5), not the name (May).
I want to convert the format to MMM, (ex: May, 2002), so I used the
mktime function. Basically I extract the date with a regular MySQL query,
then explode the date, and my components look great. However, when I put the
components into my mktime function, sometimes it'll work and sometimes it
won't. It won't work if the date is too far off in the future (2085, etc.),
but I'm not exactly sure what the cutoff is. If it's recent, say 2005, it
works fine.
My code is this (after grabbing the query results):
$enddate = explode("-", $datereuslt[0]);
$fullenddate = mktime(0, 0, 0, $enddate[1], 0, $enddate[0]);
$finaldate = date("M, Y", $fullenddate);
Any ideas? Alternatively, if anyone has an easier way of doing this, I'm all

[PHP] Re: PHP Cookies
Each cookies is it's own name/value pair. If you want to store multiple pairs, you need to encode them in some manner and store them in the value. Otherwise, you can just create multiple cookies, one for each variable. Assuming that the browser is configured to accept cookies, all cookies that you set will be returned to you with each request. --- Seairth Jacobs [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Erich Kolb" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Why cant I use more than 1 variable in a cookie? > > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Using $DOCUMENT_ROOT has always worked just fine for me when working in
other directories. It's much easier to have a solid point of reference than
have to change levels.
For example:
$userDataFile = "$DOCUMENT_ROOT/forums/users/{$userName}.php";
would look for the file in $userDataFile in www.mypage.com/forums/users/

[PHP] Posting variable without form
Hello,
I saw searching in the archive for posting variable without using a
form.
I saw the answer by one of you, which is in this link:
http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/12039/fid/51
The code is actually a senttohost() function:
=
function sendToHost($host,$method,$path,$data,$useragent=0)
{
// Supply a default method of GET if the one passed was empty
if (empty($method))
$method = 'GET';
$method = strtoupper($method);
$fp = fsockopen($host,80);
if ($method == 'GET')
$path .= '?' . $data;
fputs($fp, "$method $path HTTP/1.1\n");
fputs($fp, "Host: $host\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-length: " . strlen($data) . "\n");
if ($useragent)
fputs($fp, "User-Agent: MSIE\n");
fputs($fp, "Connection: close\n\n");
if ($method == 'POST')
fputs($fp, $data);
while (!feof($fp))
$buf .= fgets($fp,128);
fclose($fp);
return $buf;
}
=
I tried it but it is not successful. I think it is because I tried to
post to a https(SSL link).
I would like to know if I can perform a SSL posting using the above
code, or if anyone could point to me how I can post variables without
using a form, please point to me.
Thanks.

I have been struggling with this problem for the last several days. (See my
recent post, "Trouble Downloading Files, 8.24.02". The problem I had was
mostly with IE. Here is how I solved it.
I used the code from the following as the basis of my code:
http://www.zend.com/zend/trick/tricks-august-2001.php
To make it work in IE, I had to add two lines to the section on "send
headers" (See commented lines below).
//send headers
if(($pc > 1) AND isset($mimetype[$p[$pc - 1]]))
{
//display file inside browser
header("Content-type: " . $mimetype[$p[$pc - 1]] . "\n");
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"$file\"\n"); // THIS
LINE IS ADDED TO GIVE A CHOICE TO OPEN, OR SAVE AS FILENAME.
}
else
{
//force download dialog
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream\n");
header("Content-disposition: attachment;
filename=\"$file\"\n");
}
header('Cache-Control: public');// THIS LINE IS ADDED TO MAKE MSIE
WORK
AT ALL
header("Content-transfer-encoding: binary\n");
header("Content-length: " . filesize($path) . "\n");
//send file contents
$fp=fopen($path, "r");
fpassthru($fp);
The Cache-Control header came from comments by [EMAIL PROTECTED], 04-Apr-2002
12:25, in http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fpassthru.php
I'm not sure why these additions fixed the problem, but they did. Maybe
someone out there with a better understanding than I can explain. Hope this
helps.

Thanks for everyones help yesterday but nI have come up against a problem
(as I am new). I have created my document as detailed below with notes. I
can see from the form that I have connected to the server, accessed the
correct database, created the statment and executed it. The problem is how
to display the information - as far as I can understand from yesterday if
the result is 0 then the villa is available. So what I need to do is if the
result = 0 display villa available and if the result is greater than 0 then
display villa not available . I know that the variables are getting to the
query as if I change the echo $result; to $sql; and key in 3 as the id and
2 dates in the form I get the following:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM bookings WHERE ('2002-04-04') BETWEEN booking_start AND
booking_end OR ('2002-04-10')BETWEEN booking_start AND booking_end AND
villa_id = ('3')
So, corrcet me if I am wrong but the query is working its just i cannot see
anything. I have spent hours on this today, reading books and looking at the
list. I hope that once I have done one good script I can then start to
understand it and create more :-)

RE: [PHP] Re: Automatic Download using URL, HELP!
Bogdan -
Sorry for the delay to your follow-up.
The total script is below... first let me explain a little more of what I'm
doing for clarity's sake.
I'm downloading a lot of data files from a site. The way the site works, you
supply some information in a form regarding the data set you want. This goes
to a PERL script which creates a packaged (zipped) data set and puts it in
an FTP directory.
What I wanted to do was write a script that would automatically do the form
submission, retrieve the name and location of the zip file, and save it to
my local hard disk. I happened to have a list of over 1000 data set names
that I wanted to get... so I just needed to loop through them.
FWIW, the "faking a form post" part of this, which is really the core of
what I'm doing, is based on the following in the pgp_general archives:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general&m=101899239727991&w=2
You can search for this by searching the archives for the term "asphttp".
ASPHTTP is a tool for ASP that does the same thing... only it costs money,
and this little function is free! How cool is that?
Here's the script (got it working, BTW).
Chip
http://www.someserver.com/cgi-bin/some_script.pl
$host="www.someserver.com;
$path="/cgi-bin/some_script.pl";
//The next line makes up the 'data to send' in the form. Apparently
// if you start the string with a "&", this will use the POST method,
// while if you start with a "?" it will use the GET method (or at
// least it's acting like it's doing one or the other).
$data_to_send = "&myDataSetName=" . $a .
"&FormVar1=Value1&FormVar2=Value2";
PostToHost($host, $path, $data_to_send);
}
function PostToHost($host, $path, $data_to_send)
{
//This part of the function creates a file that essentially POSTs the
// $data_to_send information to the $host . $path location, and retrieves
// the information into a variable called $returnData
$returnData="";
$fp = fsockopen($host,80);
fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\n");
fputs($fp, "Host: $host\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($data_to_send)."\n");
fputs($fp, "Connection: close\n\n");
fputs($fp, $data_to_send);
//Loop through the variable $returnData line-by-line. In this case,
// I'm searching for a keyword. The name of the resulting file is always
// on a line like this:
// YOURFTPFILENAME = some_file_name_.
//Once I hit this line, I want to save the entire line into a variable
// called $filename, and break out of the loop.
while(!feof($fp)) {
$returnData=fgets($fp, 128);
$filename = strstr($returnData, 'YOURFTPFILENAME');
if ($filename)
break;
}
//Use some simple string parsing functions to strip out the
"YOURFTPFILENAME = "
// part of the filename.
$filename = substr($filename, 18);
$filename = trim($filename);
//Now, I'm going to connect to and read the file that was created. In this
case
// it is always saved to the same location, so all I need to do is specify
the
// file name. The file will be read into a variable called $contents.
$host = "http://www.someserver.com/ftp_downloads/images/";;
$fp2 = fopen($host . $filename, "rb+");
$contents = fread ($fp2, 2500); //use some rediculously large number
in fread
// to ensure that you get the whole
thing.
//make a file to write to on the local system, and dump $contents into the
new
// file.
$fp3 = fopen("D:\\myFiles\\SomeDirectory\\" . $filename, "w");
fputs($fp3, $contents);
//close all of the documents

[PHP] curl and UTF-8, follow up
I did some further testing, and i found that this behaviour is not consistent. Actually i am pretty puzzled about this. When i wrote the message below is was testing with a xml document that contained only the following multi byte utf chacracter: \303\253(octal utf8) (LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH DIAERESIS) The output from CURL got automatically decoded to latin1. Then after i wrote the message i tested with another xml document that contained the following multi byte utf character: \342\202\254 (octal utf8) (EURO SIGN) I was suprised to see that the output was now correct UTF-8. Now i modified the first document and inserted the EURO SIGN in this document. When i process this document again, the CURL output is UTF-8. So it seems the output of CURL depends on what it detects on its imput, and it will try to convert the data to latin1 if possible?? Does anyone know how i can disable this behaviour? For me, CURL should not do any encoding of my data.

Re: [PHP] PHP/MYSQL query error
Why don't you do
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
or
$result = mysql_query($query);
echo mysql_error();
That way, instead of "Query Failed" you'll get something meaningful...
probably something that will solve the problem.

[PHP] strange error message when trying to start apache
Hello again, so earlier I was trying to install PHP-4.2.2 with Apache-2.0.40 and was having some sapi problems. I then read that I might be better off going with Apache-1.3.26. Well, I installed 1.3.26, and then configured and installed php into apache as a DSO. Everything appeared to go smoothly, except when I try to start up Apache, I get the following error message: Syntax error on line 205 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf: API module structure `php4_module' in file /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so is garbled -perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO? /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd could not be started Can anyone lend me a hand with this?

Re: [PHP] check unread messages in a forum
the method explained by Stas is the most common method used on all boards.
But if you need a more precise method, that will also require more
ressources from you server, what you can do is have a specific DB table
called "msg_read" taking 2 parameters : msg_id, user_id.
- Each time a user reads a message, you insert the pair "msg_id"/"user_id".
- Each time the user reloads a page,you do something like this :
$sql = "select msg_id from msg_read where user_id = ".addslashes($user_id);
// process $sql query
$msg_list = array();
while ( $row = getNextRow($mysqlResult)){
array_push($msg_list, $row[0]);
}
- when displaying the list of all message you just check if the message is
in the array $msg_list
if ( in_array($currentMsg, $msg_list)){
echo "READ";
}else{
echo "UNREAD";
}

Re: [PHP] check unread messages in a forum
the method explained by Stas is the most common method used on all boards.
But if you need a more precise method, that will also require more
ressources from you server, what you can do is have a specific DB table
called "msg_read" taking 2 parameters : msg_id, user_id.
- Each time a user reads a message, you insert the pair "msg_id"/"user_id".
- Each time the user reloads a page,you do something like this :
$sql = "select msg_id from msg_read where user_id = ".addslashes($user_id);
// process $sql query
$msg_list = array();
while ( $row = getNextRow($mysqlResult)){
array_push($msg_list, $row[0]);
}
- when displaying the list of all message you just check if the message is
in the array $msg_list
if ( in_array($currentMsg, $msg_list)){
echo "READ";
}else{
echo "UNREAD";
}

[PHP] Object member variable names
Hi, I've got a little problem with variable naming of object members. Here is my situation: I've got a website form, whoms contents will be saved in a MySQL table with two fields: name and value. The name could be anything like "bla->test", "array[3]->test[4]->name"... Now I have a php script reading out the MySQL table, and I want to assign the variables like this: $object->$name, i.e. $object->bla->test = "some value"; $object->array[3]->tes[4]->name = "some other value"; etc. Using $object->$name doesn't work, as this seems to ignore submembers and arrays. Any ideas how to solve my problem?

Re: [PHP] search in serialized string
Rodrigo, Inherited problems = ouch! Sorry I don't keep old list msgs, perhaps you mentioned this before: does the language skills field contain: 1 both the language and the skill-level, eg English - Advanced 1b what separator is used between the two words? 2 more than one language/skill-level where applicable, eg English - Advanced, German - Intro. 2b what separator is used between language entries?

Re: [PHP] check unread messages in a forum
Hi, Just store the user's last log-in date/time either in the database or in cookie. On the next log-in "select * messages where creationDate > $userLastLoginDate" and highlight those selected. It won't work for every particular unread message, but I doubt if one needs to be that much specific.

I'd say you'd need to keep a list of messages read by users somewhere. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] make problems, sapi
Hello all, I'm trying to install php 4.2.2 as a DSO with Apache-2.0.40 on a Mandrake Linux machine, and have come come upon a problem. It's having problems with sapi(?). I'm just wondering if anyone might know what is causing this problem, and if you could possibly point me towards a solution. Here's the error message: sapi_apache2.c: In function `php_register_hook': sapi_apache2.c:534: warning: passing arg 3 of `ap_register_output_filter' makes pointer from integer without a cast sapi_apache2.c:534: too few arguments to function `ap_register_output_filter' sapi_apache2.c:535: warning: passing arg 3 of `ap_register_input_filter' makes pointer from integer without a cast sapi_apache2.c:535: too few arguments to function `ap_register_input_filter' make[3]: *** [sapi_apache2.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/jalaw/downloads/php-4.2.2/sapi/apachefilter' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jalaw/downloads/php-4.2.2/sapi/apachefilter' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/jalaw/downloads/php-4.2.2/sapi/' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Thanks very much, Jesse Lawrence __ Post your ad for free now! http://personals.yahoo.ca -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] curl and UTF-8
Hello List, I have a problem with the php CURL module and UTF-8 data. My php script uses curl to do a post to a perl/cgi script. This perl script returns UTF-8 encoded XML. The perl script returns utf-8, i have verified that using the webserver logfiles, but the data that i receive in $result (see below) is decoded to ISO-8859-1. $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $post_url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postfields); $result = curl_exec ($ch);// UTF compatible? curl_close ($ch); Anyone an idea how i can get curl to return me UTF-8 data?
