[PHP] European daylight saving summer-time.
Hello! I just want to get the actual date and time which works fine with date(). The problem is that php doesn't give the european daylight-saving-time in summer, so the time shown is offset by 1 hour in summer. It seems that my internet service provider doesn't adjust the clock of the server to this. How can I avoid this without manually correct it every spring/autumn?

Hi all,
I'm wrestling with this problem for a while now. I want to read a binary
file (created by C software) using PHP. I know of unpack(). But the C struct
that is stored in the binary file contains variables with bitfields:
struct some_struct {
char val_a : 2
int val_b : 7
}
Such a construct means that val_a is char with a bitfield of 2 and therefore
can contain values between 0 (00 binary) and 3 (11 binary). val_b is an
integer with a range of 0 (000) to 127 (111).
Now the problem is: how on earth do I handle those values with PHP's
unpack()?!? I've tried a lot of syntaxes but none of them seem to work. Can
someone please shortcut whether it is possible or not and if yes, *how*?
Thanks in advance,
Tim

Hi,
I am having some problems with duplicate form input.
I have a form that adds comments to an article, works fine, but if the
user clicks on refresh, having added a comment previously, the same
comment is added again. I tried clearing the variables after the database
write, but the refresh somehow resends the previous values.
Roughly, heres how my script works: (not using actual code syntax here)
--
if {$flag=1 AND $name!='' AND $commentbody!=''){
inserts the comment into the database
$flag = 0
$name = ''
$comment = ''
}
--
routine to display the article and the existing comments here
--
form here
if user clicks send, puts $flag=1 and calls same page

How can i prevent these double entries? Some command to definitely clear
the variables?
Thanks.

There is a very simple solution to this on the page that
does the entries into the database simply to a header redirect
to a new page that displays the success notices etc and if they
do a back or a refresh nothing will happen as the POST data
is on the previous now removed from history page.
header('Location: http://www.yourdomain.com/success.html');
* you will need to put some GET data in the URL to show the correct page.
That will do it for you.
Remember that you can't send output on the database entry page simple
to the database calls and they do the header call as above.

RE: [PHP] Form duplicate post problem
You can still use one page and use a middle-man technique. The part that processes the form input would redirect back to itself after the data is inserted into the database, thus getting rid of the post data. So subsequent refreshes of the page will refresh without attempting to repost the data. This post is merely for reference and, hopefully, to help out some other person that runs into the same problem. I solved my duplicate form post problem using that middle-man technique you guys mentioned, but i did it in a little more user friendly way than using a complete page and redirecting back to the original. (thus preventing some design problems on my specific site) I used some javascript to open a small window, it has the code to insert the comment into the database, thanks for the user input and immediately closes and refreshes the original, showing that last inserted comment. Works very smoothly, and if the user connection is fast enough, he doesnt even notice the window. If anyone needs the code, feel free to email me, ok? I am just not posting it because its a bit long, and might unnecessarily clutter the list. :-) Thanks for all the help, guys, you got me in the right direction.

[PHP] Formatting text
Hello friends, I have to put results of various departments in our school website. All results will go in the Mysql database. The problem is formatting the output.

Thanks Denis
Re: [PHP] Formatting text
Two ways to do this...
One just use
echo pre;
for($i=0; $i sql-rows; i++){
echo $values['grade'];
echo $values['admno'];
}
echo /pre;
or create a table
table
for($i=0; $i sql-rows; i++){
tr
td$value['grade']/tdtd$value['grade2']/tdtd$value['grade3']/tdtd$value['grade4']/td

I subscribe to your opinion, i spoke too soon. It seems i cant pass the form vars to the new javascript window, and i dont have a clue why not! Quite simply, if instead of opening a new window, i use the exact same code on the main window, all the vars are passed, if i use javascript to open a new window, no php vars are passed on. So i apologize for my early cry of victory, it quickly turned into a cry of despair. bah. Any ideas on how to get it working? PHP doesnt pass vars to javascript new window?

I get this error: Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: open(/tmp\sess_b400575a818f9bb0361b06dad912410c, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pcu\index.php on line 1 I haven't edited the php.ini file yet but I'm not sure what to set it to.

RE: [PHP] Form duplicate post problem
2 ways around that.. make sure you send that before any other ouput... Even empty
lines etc In other words nothing before ?php and nothing after ? Not ever a
carriage return.
or start of with ob_start() and end with ob_end_flush();

RE: [PHP] Form duplicate post problem
You can also enable output buffering on your middle page, this will
allow you to output data and set cookies, send headers, etc at any point
in your script.
You can enable output buffering globally with php.ini, with an .htaccess
for specific directories or use the output buffering functions to enable
them for just a script or even part of a script.

Ok, I am a bad coder. :( I can't figure this out at all:
$fileID = fopen(nicknames.txt, 'r');
$stuff = fread($fileID, filesize(nicknames.txt)); fclose($fileID);
if (strlen($stuff) 0) $priorNickNewLine = \n;
$nicks = explode(\n, $stuff);

I would recommend you to always check if the file was opened successfully.
Simply add this after your fopen..
if ($fileID === false) { // 3 '=' signs checks

die(Error opening file. $php_errormsg); // you will need
track_errors = ON in php.ini to use $php_errormsg.

[PHP] Rookie mail() q's .. can't find answer after RTFM...
Hi y'all I'm probably trying to do something ridicolously trivial, but here goes: I'm building a form for sending mail of my website. The idea is simply that people plop in their address, the message, and pick a subject line, and then click send. It will then show how the message will look, and people will then have the option to either correct it, send it there and then, or just dump the whole enchilada... Q 1: Well, building the form and making the page preview the message is the easy part. But how do I make the page retain the message so that I can 1. actually send the thing after the second submit, and 2. make it fill out the form when user wish to alter message (or there's an error) ???

Haven't figured out how to work the last button. Q 2: The manual doesn't really say it that clearly, but do I need to have the content-type field when the message is plain text already? And should I be adding a Date: field, or does the mail() function figure that out itself?

The last line cannot be producing the warning; it does not refer to a file.
Please show us the EXACT error message.
Are you certain the file was opened? Did you try to print $stuff after reading it?
Did it have the
info you thought it should?

Subject: [PHP] Warning: 1 is not a valid File-Handle resource - HELP!
Ok, I am a bad coder. :( I can't figure this out at all:
$fileID = fopen(nicknames.txt, 'r');
$stuff = fread($fileID, filesize(nicknames.txt)); fclose($fileID);
if (strlen($stuff) 0) $priorNickNewLine = \n;
$nicks = explode(\n, $stuff);
The last line produces the Warning.. why? I am trying to read contents from
nicknames.txt and split
according to the newline character so that each nickname is an array element.
What did I do wrong? :(

I would recommend you to always check if the file was opened successfully.
Simply add this after your fopen..
if ($fileID === false) { // 3 '=' signs checks
variable type and value
die(Error opening file. $php_errormsg); // you will need
track_errors = ON in php.ini to use $php_errormsg.

You can still use one page and use a middle-man technique. The part
that processes the form input would redirect back to itself after the
data is inserted into the database, thus getting rid of the post data.
So subsequent refreshes of the page will refresh without attempting to
repost the data.
This post is merely for reference and, hopefully, to help out some
other person that runs into the same problem.
I solved my duplicate form post problem using that middle-man
technique you guys mentioned, but i did it in a little more user friendly
way than using a complete page and redirecting back to the original. (thus
preventing some design problems on my specific site)
I used some javascript to open a small window, it has the code to
insert the comment into the database, thanks for the user input and
immediately closes and refreshes the original, showing that last inserted
comment. Works very

[...] my question is, where do i set this admin called 'mailadmin' with password 'password'. do i set it in courier/uw for example? Yes, you need to give imap_set_quota() a username and password of an account that has administrator privileges on your IMAP server. If you were using Cyrus IMAP you'd use an account that's specified in the admins section of /etc/imapd.conf. I don't know how this is handled in Courier or UW, but I assume the mechanisms are similar. I suggest checking the documentation for your particular IMAP server... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Dropping Tables
I have researched this and can't find an answer. Maybe I am just looking in the wrong places or not putting the correct keywords into the search engines. So any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using MySQL with PHP. I have some PHP scripts that create tables in a database that are meant to be temporary but can't actually create TEMPORARY tables to do the job. That isn't the problem in itself. The problem is that sometimes if the script is stopped prematurely, it doesn't get to the drop table function in it. All of the tables that are created for this start with an a and follow with a random number. What I need to do is to create a script that I can run that will delete all tables that start with an a in the database. Again, since the table name is randomly generated except for the starting a, I will need the script to find them and drop them. Has anybody done this before? I would sure appreciate some help here.

RE: [PHP] Dropping Tables
Thank You so much John and Michael. SHOW TABLES LIKE 'a%' worked like a charm and was exactly what I was looking for. I guess my searches were using the wrong keywords. Kind of figures. Some of my searches were turning up 1000's of results. How do you know whether it's an active a* table or not? Will you be dropping a table that someone is actually using? I will be shutting down the script at a certain time each day to run some things like this for maintenance. So none of these should be active and if they are, it won't hurt anything. The customer can just wait until the maintenance time is over. Approximately 10 mintues.

Just yo play safe do a dump of your db first. Or even better, use SHOW TABLES LIKE 'a%' to just get the a* tables and drop each one. How do you know whether it's an active a* table or not?

Hi Rui, I have Windows XP, Apache 2.0.43 and PHP 4.3.0 also. My php_domxml.dll extension works just fine. Did u copy all files from c:\php\dlls to your c:\WINDOWS\system32 directory? Also is your extensions path is set to c:\php\extensions in your php.ini file? I hope that works.

Re: [PHP] Re: Problem with REQUIRE in PHP 4.3.0
Hello, no, I didn't try it. But I compile all versions before and no problem. And I have computer with very similar configuration - work. On machine with OpenBSD 3.0 PHP 4.3.0 works, on machines with BSD 3.1 not but I don't know why. What I may check? g You could try adding the path of the grab_globals.lib.php (or that of all of g all the lib files) in the php.ini file in the directive include_path like g this : g include_path = g .:/usr/local/lib/php:/some/other/path:/absoute/path/to/your/lib/dir g I dont yet have PHP 4.3.0 so this is from ver 4.0.6 Thanks Radek -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] PHP and XML parser (expat)
Hello PHP. I'm running Linux Mandrake 9.0 with Apache 1.3.26 and PHP 4.2.3 and I'm trying to get the XML parser expat to work. I get this error: Call to undefined function: xml_parser_create() I have installed expat from the Mandrake Control center, but I dont think PHP found that out :-) I checked out the manual and found a tip: libexpat.a: $(OBJS) ar -rc $@ $(OBJS) ranlib $@ but i do not know what to do with it ? How do I get the XML parser to work with PHP ??? Kind Regards Lasse Tarp
