[PHP] Weight function.
Hi all.
Wondering if anyone can shed some light!
I have a problem whereby I need to define the weight of a selection of
items in a shopping cart in order to calculate a shipping cost.
Basically I have 5 products (at the moment) which are of set weights.
What I want to do is add up the amount of items in the cart and multiply
by weight then determine what the shipping weight is. Once that is
determined I can calculate the shipping cost. My problem is arrays. I
dunno what I'm doing with them! I can return the weight of one item and
multiply that by the amount of items in the cart but need to figure out
how do then do it again for any more items and add them to the first
calculation. Here is my code:
function calculate_weight($items)
{
global $weight;
$conn = db_connect();
$query = select weight from products
where catid = $catid;
$result = @mysql_query($query);
$weight = ($result*$items);
return $weight;
}
Where $items is the number of items in the cart. $catid is the category
the products are in but maybe I need to use a different identifier. I
have another identifier called $itemCode which defines the actual item
which would probably be more reasonable?
Thoughts?

[PHP] how to setup mysql logging from php scripts
Hi I need to be able to see logs of all mysql queries from php scripts on my server. I have a multitude of virtual hosts on my RedHat server, with many mysql db's, and would like to be able to see what queries are done against the db's from which scripts. The reason being is that I suspect that some of the scripts on some domains are causing problems, for example infinite loop db queries etc. Yesterday again I had mysql freeze up completely on the server, and the only interaction with mysql are from php scripts on the various domains, so looking at the mysql.log file gives no help. Ideally I would like to see something like the following logged: time || path/to/script.php || sql_query || mysql_error or ANYthing that will help me to determine what went wrong. At the moment I can merely blame the gremlins, and I don't know if it is a poorly written script causing this or not, so I can't do anything about the situation... ANY suggestions or methods being used by ppl out there are also welcome. Thanks alot. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Blank PHP pages...
I had the same thing just two days ago. This is what happend: I have some code using include files in this way: 1 ?php 2 3 // some php code 4 include(xlib.inc); 5 // some php code 6 7 ? The include file looks like 1 ?php 2 // some code 3 ? The problem was in line 3 of the include file. If there is a line feed behind ? , the code does not work - gives a blank page just like yours. Removing that linefeed solved my problem. I did not yet figure out why this happend. It has someting to do with html headers being send. The line feed behind ? is considered HTML output, so headers are send at that point. Somehow the rest of the PHP-code gets lost. Anyway... with a little luck this could be of any help to you. Good luck René Angel Gabriel wrote: ... I've got PHP working, on my server, I know this because I used that small PHP script that shows all the variables, and that worked fine.

Re: [PHP] Problem with setcookie and IE6.0.2800.1106
It seems that the problem is with IE, and characters in the domain name.
This is a beta site (of one of my existing sites), and I have the
virtual host name set as by-tor_v70. I tried setting the cookie on
another virtual host running on the same box, and it worked. So, I
removed the underscore from the name, and the cookie worked fine. Live
and learn, eh? IE6 != underscores. Thanks for the help guys.

Timothy,
The headers are coming across fine. I looked in the privacy report,
and told IE to accept all cookies from my domain, but it still isn't
registering them. If it wasn't for the fact that I've had over 100,000
page views by IE6 this month, I wouldn't give it a second glance.

As per my earlier commments about seeing the privacy report this will

You should then see the header information as well that should
include your cookie informaiton if not you have even a bigger problem.

John,
Can you see if this works:
header(Set-Cookie: foo=bar);
If not, then check the configuration for IE6. I seem to recall
hearing that cookies are disabled by default for sites that are not
P3P compliant? Or, perhaps that was for third-party cookies only. At
any rate, I seem to recall some significant change with IE6 in
regards to cookies, so maybe you're experiencing that. My example
above will give you the simplest test case for setting a cookie.
Good luck, and happy hacking.

Your code as it stands does not do anything meaningful.
1) mysql_query() returns a resource_id -- which you assigned to $result.
2) You need to pass $result into one of these functions to actually get the
data resulting from your query -- mysql_fetch_row(), mysql_fetch_array(),
mysql_fetch_object(), mysql_result().
Try to get this part working then post your question again!

RE: [PHP] Weight function.
Thanks.
I have just this minute got it working.
Basically the same function I used for determining price of the cart
items could be used for determining weight. All I needed to do was
assign my DB with a field called weight and call that instead of price
from the DB so my calculate weight function looks like this.
function calculate_weight($cart)
{
// sum total weight for all items in shopping cart
global $weight;
$weight = 0.0;
if(is_array($cart))
{
$conn = db_connect();
foreach($cart as $ItemCode = $qty)
{
$query = select weight from products where ItemCode='$ItemCode';
$result = mysql_query($query);
if ($result)
{
$item_weight = mysql_result($result, 0, weight);
$weight +=$item_weight*$qty;
}
}
}
return $weight;
}
By making $weight a global variable I then call that in my shipping
function and set it's parameters:
function calculate_shipping_cost($weight)
{
//shipping costs calc. less than 10KG is 15 more than 10KG currently
20.
global $shipping;
if ($weight = 1)
$shipping = 15;
else
$shipping = 20;
return $shipping;
}
I still don't fully understand why this works but am happy it does!

Re: [PHP] People who searched this also searched this!
Hi guys, Does anybody have a working example of doing the lists of 'People who searched this also searched this!' that I see on Amazon and other websites. That is a very complex problem. It is not for PHP. PHP may only insert queries and get results and another system computers all data. Such system is based on statistic or artificial neuron nets. For example the company Net Perceptions makes such systems as NetP based on statistic but they are not very fast. If you would like to buy their system you would have to sell some good cars. -- Krzysztof Dziekiewicz -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] weird IE cookie problem
Is the time set properly on your machine? Double check both the time AND the timezone. I went nuts trying to fix a similar problem once just to find out that someone had changed the timezone on the PC for a test and then forgot to put it back. It is very easy to check. Set $expires = 0; It makes a session cookie independed from time set.

[PHP] xml parsing
Hi! I understand that it's easily possible to parse xml documents with php. But what about changing them? With other xml parsers, I have the xml document in a structure (usually a tree or an array) and when I change something in the structure I can later write out the structure again into a xml file and get a changed xml file that way. Is this possible easily with PHP too? Thanks Mike --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Re: [PHP] MySQL GMT -- Local time
My logging application is feeding a MySQL database with data records that are time stamped with GMT time. I would like to query the database for records matching local time(eg. all records created on oct 17,2002 local time). I would prefer if the records could be formated in local time when returned from MySQL. What is the best way to do this. I don't know if there is an automatic way to do it, but if you know you are 5 hours ahead of GMT for example, and you want all records for Oct 17, 2002 GMT+5, then you could do this: SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE TO_DAYS(datetime_column + INTERVAL 5 HOUR) = TO_DAYS(20021017) You can use DATE_FORMAT() in your query to reformat the MySQL timestamp, or use UNIX_TIMESTAMP() to retrieve a unix timestamp instead and format it in PHP. With the above query, the 5 and actual date 20021017 can be PHP variables, to make it more flexible. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re:[PHP] fopen error
First of all... thanks for trying to help...
I'll show the full piece of code I made :
$file = http://www.ivan.ivao.org/whazzup.txt;;
$fp = fsockopen($file, 80);
if (!$fp) {
echo does not open;
} else {
echo $fp; - Here is what I say it does't return anything. This
line is just to figure out what fsockopen() returns.
while (!feof($fp)) {
echo fgets ($fp,500);
}
fclose ($fp);
}
Thanks again
Alfonso

What do you mean it returns nothing?
fsockopen() returns a file handle. Was the file handle valid, i.e., not 0?
If true, then you must READ from the opened file handle.
Please, be more specific in your error discussion.

Subject: Re: [PHP] fopen error
I'm still stuck with this...
Using fsockopen() I'm not able to open the remote file.
I use
$file = http://www.xxx.xxx/file.txt;;
$fp = fsockopen($file, 80);
and $fp returns nothing...
Any idea?

if allow_url_fopen is not on, you can still use fsockopen(), and no it
doesn't affect security, if you don't open files based on unchecked user
input.

Hello
I'm a newcomer to PHP and I wish to know how to get the contents of a

located in an URL if the parameter allow_url_fopen is no value in the

Does this parameter, if is on, affect the security of the server?
Thanks in advance

Re: [PHP] xml parsing
Change xml into a different type of xml sounds like a job for the xslt functions. Works like a charm Michael Ransburg wrote: Hi! I understand that it's easily possible to parse xml documents with php. But what about changing them? With other xml parsers, I have the xml document in a structure (usually a tree or an array) and when I change something in the structure I can later write out the structure again into a xml file and get a changed xml file that way. Is this possible easily with PHP too? Thanks Mike --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Re: [PHP] MySQL GMT -- Local time
On Thu, 17 Oct 2002, 1LT John W. Holmes wrote: My logging application is feeding a MySQL database with data records that are time stamped with GMT time. I would like to query the database for records matching local time(eg. all records created on oct 17,2002 local time). I would prefer if the records could be formated in local time when returned from MySQL. What is the best way to do this. I don't know if there is an automatic way to do it, but if you know you are 5 hours ahead of GMT for example, and you want all records for Oct 17, 2002 GMT+5, then you could do this: SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE TO_DAYS(datetime_column + INTERVAL 5 HOUR) = TO_DAYS(20021017) You can use DATE_FORMAT() in your query to reformat the MySQL timestamp, or use UNIX_TIMESTAMP() to retrieve a unix timestamp instead and format it in PHP. With the above query, the 5 and actual date 20021017 can be PHP variables, to make it more flexible. ---John Holmes... Where it gets messy is when daylight saving kicks in. Knowing what dates are included with standard or daylight savings time offsets is a problem. It gets more complicated when I want to return a distinct date record set from the timestamp column.
