Re: [PHP] Re: session & cookies
Jeff, One quick thought ... Is your cookie domain the same domain as the URL domain you are using to test this? If not, the browser will not send the cookie, so that is a potential reason for this behavior. If the domain is the same, I see no reason why this shouldn't work, but I have two ideas you can try. 1. Rather than using the name of the cookie, try this on the receiving page: This should dump the entire array to the screen and would reveal any naming problems. 2. View the HTTP transactions themselves to make sure the proper Set-Cookie and Cookie headers are being used. There are several utilities that can help do this, and I recently wrote one in PHP (it's a quick hack though) you can get at http://protoscope.org/. The messages of interest are the original HTTP response from your Web server (which should contain the Set-Cookie header) and any future HTTP request (which should contain the Cookie header). This is the most reliable way to really analyze these types of problems. Hopefully these ideas will help uncover something. Chris Jeff Bluemel wrote: >ok - no cookie exists...

Re: Re: [PHP] file uploads problem
Thanks .. but I think you are saying exactly what I wrote I was
doing .. except that you have used exec("cp $file $path") while I
tried PHP's copy() function .. I don't think that will make a
difference...though will give that a try any way.
Forgot to mention in my previous mail that the directory where I
am trying to copy the uploaded file from /tmp is in 777 mode
already.

Re: [PHP] file uploads problem
Try:
$upload = "/path/to/copy/";
$upload_path = "$upload/$file_filename";
if (is_uploaded_file($file)) {
Exec("cp $filename $upload_path");
}
Then you have the file at /path/to/copy/, and you can do
whatever you want with it. (I'm assuming the file field of the form is
called "file", and that /path/to/copy/ has permissions set so that PHP
can write to it, 777 will work for sure, but I'm not 100% positive which
one would be best due to security and stuff.).

I hate it too, but the complications of personalised email really do
outweigh the benefits, unless you're prepared for:
a) long development time
b) constantly hitting the "ceiling" of your code/server limits and having to
re-evaluate the code ("it worked for 1000, but now i have 3000", etc)
c) placing HUGE burdens on the server
Bulk mail in a personalised manner should be done with dedicated software
and a dedicated server... I think it's a little wishful to place such
burdens on a WEB server... especially one which is a shared server.
Even if the code does work, the sysadmin should shut it down to prevent the
massive performance hit you cause.
If you've got your own server(s), that's a different story... but then I'd
be using ezmlm or something like that.

[PHP] file uploads problem
Hi,
(Linux RH 7.1, Apache/1.3.22, PHP 4.0.6).
I am trying to write a script to send emails. It needs to support
attachments. The point where I am stuck is after the file to be
attached gets uploaded to /tmp as /tmp/tempfilename thorough an
HTTP POST form.
I am not able to open that file directly .. follwing error shows
up.
Warning: fopen("/tmp/phpOaILXx","rb") - Operation not
permitted in
/var/www/vhosts/mydomain/httpsdocs/lib/email.inc.php
on line 254
I tried to copy this file using
move_uploaded_file($userfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file");
and here a strange thing happened. The file was successfully
copied BUT it had permissions like -rw-- which I interpret as
only accessible to root. I tried copy() function instead and it
failed.
I think I have tried every thing I could think of .. so please
HELP :)

Re: [PHP] Mail problem with more than 1k users
I started dealing with this several years ago using Perl. The closest I got with sendmail was to check that the call worked, and if it didn't try again up to 5 times. For me, bottom line, if you want to do what you are trying to do, use something besides sendmail. I switched to Qmail, and have successfully sent 15,000+ personalized messages, one at a time, with both Perl and PHP. (It takes a couple hours, but it does work.) Of course I only send opt in email, and I hope you are doing the same, as spam is always evil. :) HTH, Peter Janett New Media One Web Services New Upgrades Are Now Live!!!

Re: [PHP] Frusration using Sessions!!!
Don,
First I must strongly advise that you never, ever design a Web
application that depends on the back button. This is a key
characteristic of a poorly designed application in most cases and is
worth a second look.
Glancing at the HTTP headers you are sending, two things stand out to
me. First, I am not sure that both Cache-Control headers will get sent.
Even if they are, I am not sure that you're going to see consistency
with Web browsers handling the multiple Cache-Control headers. Some HTTP
headers are intended to be used in multiple instances, such as
Set-Cookie, but Cache-Control is not one. Thus, you should specify your
directives in a single Cache-Control header.
In addition, many versions of Internet Explorer are known to ignore the
no-store directive. This directive does not allow even the storage of a
resource on your local computer. The message you see is being given by a
browser that actually adheres to this directive. Only non-compliant
browsers will not show this warning.
Either way, however, you eliminate just about any form of caching with a
compliant Web browser with all of the headers you are sending, and it
sounds like you specifically want the browser to cache a
previously-viewed page. So, you're going to have to make up your mind.
:-) The best first step for you to take is to learn what those headers
mean that you are sending.
Happy hacking.

RE: [PHP] session and expiration function
Just use ini_set() to set a different session.save_path() than what's in your PHP.ini. then the garbage collector won't touch it.

Hi again people! How's it goin? Here's the question How do I do left joins from multiple tables? I want to do something like this: "select a.name, b.department, c.position from emp a left join dept b on a.staffno = b.staffno left join position c on a.staffno = c.staffno where staffno = $staffno"; I know the statement above is totally wrong. I'm just hoping u guys can understand what i'm trying to achieve from it. By the way, this is on Oracle 9i, but I guess ANSI would be fine. Thanks again.

Re: [PHP] How do i assign Integers only and not real numbers?
Wouldn't round() work??? Or, if you always want to round down, why not just split it on the decimal?

Just how are you going to decrypt it? Password encryption is ordinarily
one-way - you have no choice. You have to compare encrypted passwords.

If it aint broke, don't fix it I guess, but I'd argue a few points: - at some point, your data will get too large, and the file method will get sluggish. this is where MySQL differs, because you can index columns, have full text indexes for search engines, etc etc to increase performance and features. - simple things like auto-incrementing row numbers - i find updating / editing data MUCH easier in a database than I do in a CSV... - i find complicated queries MUCH easier in a MySQL database. I guess the answer is that you COULD provide functionality for all of this by writing some functions, but my question is WHY, when MySQL is likely to be 1 or 100 or 1000 steps in front of you at all times. What I *DO* find useful is to let some of my customers edit or export their data in CSV format, which I use to munch into a set of MySQL tables... It gives them very cheap, hands-on editing of the data, but still gives me a quick/flexible back-end.

[PHP] Need help.
I am using php-4.1.2 and apache-1.3.26. I am allowing users to download
files from my site. The problem is that the file is not downloded fully.
After downloading say 84%, the counter stops and download manager says that
the download is complete. This problem is intermittent. Sometimes the file
is downloaded fully and sometimes not. Here is the code I am using
$range=getenv(http_range);
$fsize = filesize($DOWNLOAD_FILE_DIRECTORY . $file_name);
$p1 = strpos($range, "bytes=");
$p2 = strpos($range, "-");
$offset = substr($range, $p1+6, $p2-1);
header( "Content-type: " . $file_type );
$header_range = sprintf("Content-Range: bytes %ld-%ld", $offset, $fsize );
header($header_range);
$header_range = sprintf("Content-length: %ld", $fsize - $offset );
header($header_range);
header("Content-disposition-type: attachment\r\n");
header("Content-disposition: filename=" . $file_name);
header( "Content-Description: PHP3 Generated Data" );
header( "Accept-Ranges: bytes" );
$fp = fopen($DOWNLOAD_FILE_DIRECTORY . $file_name, "r");
fseek($fp, $offset);
do
{
$section = fread($fp, 102400);
echo $section;
} while (!feof($fp));
fclose($fp);
---
What could be the problem?
Now, I have changed my code to this
$fsize = filesize($DOWNLOAD_FILE_DIRECTORY . $file_name);
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename = " . $file_name);
header("Content-Type: application/x-zip");
header("Content-Length: " . $fsize);
$fp = fopen($DOWNLOAD_FILE_DIRECTORY . $file_name, "r")
fpassthru($fp);
flcose($fp);
It works with IE 6.0 only. IE 5.5 and 5.0 are still not working. With 5.5
and 5.0 empty files are saved.
I don't what I am doing wrong. If anyone have any idea can you please let me
know.
Thanks for any kind of help.

I can't speak for the differences between 4.1.1 and 4.2.1, but maybe the following information will help you: On my site I have a custom error handler than displays a "friendly" error message screen and emails me an error report. I use output buffering because if an error occurs I don't want this friendly error message screen to be rendered in the middle of whatever else was going on when the error occured...I get the contents of the buffer and then and then call ob_end_clean() to empty it before I display the friendly error message. I noticed that this was not working properly on one section of my site that used sessions. I noticed that if I called session_start() and then an error occured, I got the error message in the middle of the the page, just as if I hadn't cleared the buffer. I then discovered why... I am using trans sid support to perpetuate the session id, and apparently this is implemented internally using an output buffer. Trans sid buffers the page output, then rewrites the hrefs and insert the hidden form values before flushing the buffer to the screen. Apparently you can start multiple buffers, and they are stacked. If you call a buffer function such as ob_end_clean(), it *automatically* operates on the last buffer in the stack...i.e. the buffer that was most recently created. In my case this buffer what the trans sid one, and NOT the one that I started. To make a long story short, I had to end up calling ob_end_clean() TWICE...once to flush the trans sid buffer and once more to flush mine. Maybe something similar is at work with your problem. Try calling the flush function twice back to back and see if that makes any difference... If anyone knows of a way to determine how many output buffers have been started or are currently active please let me know... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Frusration using Sessions!!!
Hi,
I am having trouble with sessions. I've created a user login/password
section that uses session variables. Within this section, I have a form
where the user enters data and submits. When the user clicks on the Browser
back button, they should get back to the form with their data intact. This
is indeed what happens most of the time but some users report that they get
the following message after clicking on "Back":
===
Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using
information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available. As a
security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically resubmit your
information for you.
To resubmit your information and view this Web page, click the Refresh
button.
===
When the refresh, their data is gone!!! I've gone through the docs and
placed the following headers at the top of every file. Why is this
happening and to only a few users???
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");

Umm .. I did something along these lines awhile back ... yeah, I had
all the public pages outside of the document root. I had every request
for a page going to my script, if the person was recognized (using a
cookie), I would get the page they wanted and return it. Plain cgi and
was fast enough. You could do this in PHP. No one can access the
restricted pages as they are outside the doc root.
This is of course something for mod_perl where you can write your own
auth handler and you don't need to do something as goofy as I did
above. I don't think PHP has that ability. Your pages can still be in
PHP. Here is an example (I just wrote this up will quick so if you go
this route, do your homework)
http://www.schoenster.com/authtest/
The above url is protected by a mod_perl handler which requires a
cookie (script below)
If you go to the above url you get redirected here:
http://www.schoenster.com/login.php
Enter something, cookie set, you are in. Click on welcome.php and
logout to kill the cookie.
I don't know how you can do this in PHP without doing something goofy
like I suggest above or other suggestions I've seen.
I use an .htaccess file in /authtest
PerlAccessHandler Apache::GateKeeper
PerlSetVar login_failure_handler 'http://www.schoenster.com/login.php'
PerlSetVar column_name username
The mod_perl handler is such (I just cut,pasted from some other stuff)
package Apache::GateKeeper;
use strict;
use Apache::Constants qw(:common REDIRECT);
sub handler {
my $r = shift;
my $location = $r->dir_config("login_failure_handler");
my $okay = get_cookie($r);
if ($okay) {
return DECLINED;
}else {
$r->status(REDIRECT);
$r->header_out( Location => $location );
return 1;
}
}
##
sub get_cookie {
my $r = shift;
my %headers_in = $r->headers_in;
my $cookie = $headers_in{'Cookie'};
my %cookie = ();
my(@bites) = split /;/,$cookie;
my $n = '';
my $v = '';
for(@bites) {
($n,$v) = split /=/;
$n =~ s/^\s+//;
$cookie{$n} = $v;
}
my $username = $r->dir_config("column_name");
if($cookie{$username}) {
return 1;
}else {
return undef;
}
}
##
1;
Now, if you reckon I should have only given a solution as above in PHP,
well, I would have if I had known one. The solutions I've seen so far
are not very elegant or evolutionary imho. Can the above be done in
PHP so you don't have to tell every page your write to check for
permissions?

Re: [PHP] date functions

Off the top of my head... Convert both date1 and date2 to unix timestamps,
and subtract one from the other. That will give you the number of seconds
between them. Then, convert to hours, minutes, etc as required.

[PHP] in a logic loop!
I have a logic problem: I have a complicated query. The main thing is that I have an ID, and for a particular ID, I may have between 1 to 3 rows returned. The rows returned are variable, that is for 1 particular ID there might just be 1 row and at a later time it may have 3 rows. But what I need to do is print only one row for a particular ID. Please do not suggest I do it through SQL itself, because it's after using various aggregate functions that I have arrived at the min. result set. I need the logic clarified, because it has me stumped. It will be simple for a clear-thinking individual. What I am doing is: I maintain a set of details in say $prev_row (previous row) and another in cur_row (current row). The minute my cur_row detail (one unique id) doesn't match the prev_row detail, I print out all the previous row details, and reinitialize the various variables (all in a loop). This works fine for all cases but fails for the last ID, because of the logic used. Do I need to create a special case for the last one, or can anyone suggest a better way? -Thanks Naintara -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Error with file upload: "No file uploaded in Unknown on line 0"
I have some code that a user can set a description about an item to be posted, and then add some image files of the item. Its a 3x3 frame of fields, along with an 'include' line for each one.. only selecting a file with the 'Browse' button, or entering a website manually will trigger this include.. Of course, there aren't always going to be 9 images to upload, so sometimes they have to be left blank ... everytime I submit something without all 9 entries filled, I get a bunch of lines in my error log like the following: [error] PHP Notice: No file uploaded in Unknown on line 0 Is there something I can do to combat this? It's quite annoying to see up to 9 of these lines everytime I submit something from my page. I don't want to turn off all error reporting or anything like that, either... I'd like to see something that'll make it a non-error. Thanks! -Jason Young -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] freetype - problems with true type and transprency
Hi there,
I am trying to put text into an image. There are some problems where I do
not find a solution for.
The image is a jpg and stored on the filesystem. Now I would like to create
a stamp in trutype font
verdana with a name. Just the text on the image.
I experianced following problems:
o The text has a white background which covers the other image
o It does not work with truetype. I tryed imagettftext but results in a
broken image.
Here is the code which should do the job, but does not:
$label = imagecreate(200,50);
$white = imagecolorallocate($label,255,255,255);
$black = imagecolorallocate($label,0,0,0);
Imagestring($label,1,0,0,'andy',$black);
#Imagettftext($label, 30,0,10,33,$black,'verdana.ttf',$number);
$photoImage = ImageCreateFromJPEG('card_city.jpg');
$pos_x = 5;
$pos_y= 220;
$label_w= 200;
$label_h = 50;
ImageCopy($photoImage, $label, $pos_x, $pos_y, 0, 0, $label_w, $label_h);
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($photoImage);
Has anybody an idea how to solve this prob?
Thanx in advance for any help.

[PHP] Searching a db
Hey all, I am looking for a way to search a MySQL DB based on a users input string. The string would be searched on particular fields in my DB, which is already setup. The problem I am having is that I want to be able to return strings that match all *or* part of their string. Right now it only returns exact (case-insensitive) matches. But I want to be able to return partial matches as well. I have the relevancy calculation worked out but I'm not sure how to go about gathering the partial matches. i.e. User inputs: Christmas Output would be something like: Christmas (100%) Christian (67%) Christy (67%) Chandelier (20%) Anything below 10% will not be displayed. I am using a class I found at phpclasses.org called better_field_search. I am looking to modify it to fit my needs but I'm not sure how to go about it.

[PHP] file reading/writing question.
I'm using 4.2.2 on a Linux 7.1 system. The problem that I am encountering is copying the contents out of a pdf file and writing them to a new file. I've tried fopen() in concert with fread() and fwrite() with no success. The file is created, but the file size is markedly smaller. I've also tried file() and then write the array to a string and write that string to a new file. This has come the closest to success. Any ideas??? Simply copying the files won't work because I will be performing an ereg_replace() with the contents of the copied file. This works on a pdf file with no graphics, however the file I am using has graphics embedded in it. Any ideas???

Re: [PHP] MySQL vs. basic text file
I was doing this too with good old AWK CGI scripts and text data files. Once I imported the data into MySQL I said, "Well this is not much benefit." Then I started sorting. Then I accessed the information from a different application. Then I wrote a maintenance application so my customer could sort, review and edit the data. Then I started using multitable queries. I am now so hooked on the database method, I have never looked back. Keep up with your text data. You will always be able to import it into MySQL when you are ready. I would do ahead and migrate to a database; You will have a slight learning curve, but will reap many benefits.

It sounds like you're basically asking why one would want to use a relational database. Standardization, speed and flexibility for starters. MySQL and many other databases use the SQL language for accessing db data. If your dataset is large a SQL statement to return records from indexed tables will be much faster than code at the application level. And a relational database allows you to store data in separate logical tables instead of one large table - for example tables of products, inventory, customers and orders. Using SQL to query these tables to find out something like the quantity and total revenue of widgets sold in August to customers in New Jersey whose company name begins with R would be much easier with a relational database than 1 or more text file datasets. There are many other benefits, though that's not to say that text files aren't sufficient for your current needs. I recommend reading about relational database online or in a book and playing with one of the more popular open source databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL. -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] MySQL vs. basic text file
Well, one major advantage I have found using MySQL verses txt files is the simple implementation of transactions, if you are doing multiple transactions that are related, it is nice to simply "rollback" all other statements if one fails or "commit" if they work. Of course you can do this other ways but the simplicity is nice. Although I am still a newbie, I would also have to say there would be a speed issue, if you only wan't one row returned versus reading enire file into memory then walking through it one at a time, mysql's indexing can greatly speed this process up.

I tried what you suggested, but now the db burps the stuff back. Perhaps, for

everything passes through 'localhost' which has been extraordinarly 'fussy'
lately.

Re: [PHP] Confused
well it depends how you want to go about it.. I have done something exactly like this, this morning.. :-p Firstly.. you can use a normal SQL SELECT statement, but use GROUPing to seperate the groups in this case and ORDER them alphabetically or something.. Next.. You can do something like this: 0) echo ""; $curgrp=$row["group_name"]; echo "Group: ".$row["group_name"].""; } echo " ".$row["user_name"].""; } ?> This HAS NOT been tested. but I have ran it through the inbuilt PHP interpretor in my brain.. and passed it through the mySQL server also up in my head.. and it seems OK.. In any case it was mainly to demonstrate the concept.. As you can see.. It iterates through the result table which should look a little like this (using your data supplied): Blue,Tom Blue,Nancy Blue,Jim Red,Bob Red,Susan Red,James You get it? HIH.. Please if you notice any bugs in the coding above.. point it out.. I did it quite quickly and with very little checking as such or testing..

Re: [PHP] Create Thumbnails from image
OMG..
This is the second question tonight I answer that I was just working on
today :-p
hah..
Ok.. simple.. here's my code I used today for www.operation-scifi.com/lobby
Thing is.. It's about as understandable to other's as hieroglyphics..
Therefore.. a simple solution..
do this:
Substitute the filepath etc.. and also the 150/100 dimension sizes..
xxx denotes the image type which depending on your GD version .. jpeg has
always been supported.. GIF has been removed as of 1.6 I think due to the
LZW compression patent by Unisys.. and now they have PNG which my site uses
due to it's much better file format and flexibility..
Also BTW.. this script is designed to be a seperate file.. ie image.php
perhaps even do what I did and make the filename actually a $_GET param..
As in.. you call: ./image.php?im=whatever.jpg
and it generates a thumbnailed version..
if your using JPEG format you can also use this param in the
imagejpeg($img2); function:
imagejpeg($img2,"",80); whereby the output quality is no 80%.. that means
lower qual thumbnail..
There is a lot of fun things that can be done just with the core graphics
module of PHP without GD.
but GD is soo great it can do much more exciting things..
Like for instance today I wanted to resize these big pics.. That's all
good.. But they are somewhat pixellised from the large downshrink. Now.. the
function imagecopyresample() would be great..
but's a GD2+ thing.. I don't use GD plus yet.. [downloading the bin as I
write this] but that's just one great func. taht allows for resize and
interpolation of near pixels (ie smoothing)..
w00tage eh??
Anyways.. enough said. rambling on now.. HIH

Re: [PHP] How do i assign Integers only and not real numbers?
Hi Tom, Try this: $years = round($years + ( $themonth / 12 )); From the manual: float round ( float val [, int precision]) Returns the rounded value of val to specified precision (number of digits after the decimal point). precision can also be negative or zero (default). ceil() and floor() also exist.

RE: [PHP] How do I use a Javascript variable in PHP?
You cann't from php but you can from javascript.
For exemple:
file -
Function insert_value(){
Document.form_name.text_box_name.value = javascript_value;
}
---
Now: when you click on button insert - then the javascript value insert
value into textbox.
If you open a window with a calendar and choose a value the syntax of
function will be:
"Window.opener.form_name.text_box_name.value = your_value; "
and close windows with
"Window.close();"
I hope this help you
Kale.

Subject: [PHP] How do I use a Javascript variable in PHP?
Hi all,
I hope this is the right place to pose my question, so here goes: -
I have a javascript function called calcMonth() and given a number it
will
return a date i.e. month = calcMonth( 57 ) - month will be 'sept
2002'
The problem I`m having is at the beginning of my PHP file I`m calling
this
calcMonth() then doing a load of php stuff and then trying to use the
javascript month variable, but to no avail: -
print "";
The result is, the browser displays the words 'javascript:month;' - not
a month number
I`ve looked everywhere for an answer from persistent javascript data to
using framesets to hold the variable but to no avail.
I know its quite a bit of javascript, but its mixed in with PHP too so
I thought it`d be the right place.
Anyways, I hope someone can provide the answer to my problem.
Thanks in advance,
Tom

Re: [PHP] 0 byte session files.
I ran into a problem with sessions on sourceforge, which uses load balancing. What's probably happening for you is that each server is looking in it's own /tmp directory for the sessions. So, a user logs on from a page on Server A, which creates a good session file on Server A for the user. Now, the next request goes to Server B. It doesn't have a session file to load, but it sees a session_start() in the code, so it creates an empty session file. I'm surprised your sessions are even working. A solution would be to have all four servers share a common folder to write session data to. I don't know how possible/easy that is, though... ---John Holmes... - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 10:40 AM Subject: [PHP] 0 byte session files. > Hello, > > I run a site that operates across 4 load balanaced servers and we seem to be > getting a problem where session files are created with 0 bytes (contain no > data) on 2 of the 4 servers.

They will eventually get cleaned up by PHP if you are using the session_save_path as specified in php.ini. There are settings in php.ini that control how often this happens: a.. session.gc_probability specifies the probability that the gc (garbage collection) routine is started on each request in percent. Defaults to 1. a.. session.gc_maxlifetime specifies the number of seconds after which data will be seen as 'garbage' and cleaned up. Note: If you are using the default file-based session handler, your filesystem must keep track of access times (atime). Windows FAT does not so you will have to come up with another way to handle garbage collecting your session if you are stuck with a FAT filesystem or any other fs where atime tracking is not available. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You could cast it to an int, although the manual warns that you can get spurious errors upon casting an unknown fraction, so be careful. $year= (int) ($years); Mark -Original Message- From: Tom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 September 2002 15:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] How do i assign Integers only and not real numbers?

Re: [PHP] Non-functioning db 'include'
Once you go to https://www.yoursite.com
you are at a completely new url as far as the browser is concerned so
you need to include using the full
http://www.yoursite.com/yourinclude.inc syntax or throw another copy of
your include db file in your directory for secure serving
Not sure if this is what you are referring to but hope it helps
