Hi,
you can do something like this :

$query="INSERT INTO your_table (data) value ('$imgdata')";
$result = @mysql_query($query);
I haven't try but it may work...

Odd. Try this
$tr_addr1 = mysql_escape_string ($_POST['addr1']);
$query = "INSERT INTO subscribers (addr1) VALUES('$tr_addr1')"; echo
("$query");
And tell us what you get. Then you at least know whether it's a MySQL
problem or an HTML/PHP problem.
Hmm. You are quoting your HTML attributes, right? That's the only thing I
can think of that even comes close to the behaviour you describe.

[PHP] Multiple word strings getting truncated - help please.
Hi,
I have a form for a member to signup for an account. The form has standard
fields for addresses, city state, etc. When I insert the data into the
table, if the string has more than one word, it gets truncated to the first
word.
Does this sound like a PHP or a MySQL problem.
Here's the code: (partial as the query is quite long)
$tr_addr1 = $_POST['addr1']
$query = "INSERT INTO subscribers (addr1) VALUES('$tr_addr1')";
The MySQl table is as such:
addr1 = varchar(50)

[PHP] Problems with $DOCUMENT_ROOT being blank
I set up a PHP4.3.3/mySQL4.0.14/Apache2.0.47 server and everythign is configured and running properly. i tested php with some scripts and functions and they all work. When i try and do any file editing/including in scripts i get file not found errors all over the place when i open like $DOCUMENT_ROOT/some/file/location. if i manually describe the location as in /usr/local/some/file/location it works fine. When i echo $DOCUMENT_ROOT i get nothing (literally '').

Apparently you have a problem with reading. You did exactly the
*opposite* of what Goba suggested and took your rant, and then some,
to this list.

[PHP] Re: Lack of info
IM not ranting, IM pointing out that I have looked on the website and the FAQ is a joke and help from other sources is either buy something or as the case of IRC, no channel of that description was turned up in the search. Out of fustration and spending several attempts to implement PHP and IM doubting weather or not its worth all this bother, I cant get the help IM looking for, FAQ has not got my particular issue listed and now I have resorted to direct contact as I cant get any straight answer or link to somewhere that does not sell me something or ask for membership or payment of any kind. The IRC sounded a good deal better but even then the #php channel is not listed, I try to join the #php channel and nothing I followed the set up a from the examples in the acompanying documentation which is very sketchy at best and all you state is after install the php.ini file needs putting in the %system root% and configuring... well I did all that, What I want to know is information on what is acceptable info that should be used in the config...nice to say it needs configuring, perhaps you could enlighten me as to all the terms and what they are meant for and what data needs putting into the fields? I also want to know how I know its installed and functioning as I have no idea if its functioning. So IM stuck, fustrated as this is about the 5th time I have tried to tackle the problem over as many months but cant get the information on what I need to do to get it up and running, the FAQ is a joke, more info on LINUX than you can shake a stick at, if you care to look at the site you will see the word LINUX poping up ever few lines or so.all IM trying to do is set up a messaging board, either Snitz forums or phpBB2, and they both use PHP. It is no good either hi-lighting that 100's of other people have no problem using it, mabey so, but how many 1,000s have had problems and not chased it up? Chances are those users will have grown up and been taught that in school or know people who understand the config of it, IM a lot longer in tooth and have no prior knowledge of PC technology other than what I left school with some 25 years ago, so simply stating a fact like that does not remedy the situation and I dont think you appreciate my position when I say that my knowledge although patchy, I have problems when setups and setup information waffels on about terms and items that have no meaning and have no explanation other than another jargon word or tech term... the basics of setting up operating systems and servers is childs play as is building PCs from scratch but compaired to setting up PHP, it has become a nightmare of biblical proportions. One final thing is if PHP is so easy to set up, why am I having problems? and why is their so little help in the FAQ ? Perhaps you should have an FAQ for newbies, no jargon or tech speak, just information presented in a package that everyone can understand. I really would appreciate some help, as the info IM looking for is not listed in your FAQ. - Original Message - From: "Gabor Hojtsy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Senshi Oukan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, August 30, 2003 4:47 PM Subject: Re: Lack of info > > Been down that road and it got me knowhere, I dont wish to buy information > > or books, I just need to know if its running as well as if its working and > > if the config or rather how the config works... > > > > For an organisation that wants people to use PHP, you sure make things very > > difficult to achieve, why I am so critical of sites like yours. > > > > I will re-iterate once more, I have trawled the site and resources and > > cannot find the answer to my problem anywhere in the site or links you > > provide, plenty of waffel and hot air but no nuts and bolts stuff, if you > > dont know what IM talking about???

In all other languages the decision is in the signature of the function, and there is no ability to to have call time decision. Probably it causes implentation problems and inconsistences, and needs to be eliminated before new 5.0 semantics is in the place. rush -- http://www.templatetamer.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The SQL has nothing to do with it (though make sure the query returns
what you expect), it's just how you format the table with the data you
have. My advice is to start it simple with no colors or stuff like that
and work on it until you get the proper table (html). Forget about using
other people's code in something like this and try to understand the
logic before you get to beautifying your output. I just spent the last
couple of days with tables formating, css, etc

[PHP] Re: Table format needs php correction
There are too many problems with your code for anyone to spend the time
going thru them all.
I'd suggest, first constructing a regular html table that looks like you
want it to. Hint, IE6 requires something in TDs [e.g., ] for
borders to show.
When the table looks the way you want it to, validate the code at
http://validator.w3.org/
Then work on your php code to generate the exact same html.

When you make array(03042003) what you get is an array like this
Array ( 0 => 3042003 ); PHP convers the string you got from date to an

So when adding the results from date() to the $dates array, you should
keep them as strings.
you could say
$d = date('mdY', timestamp);
$dates[] = "$d";//this will keep the variable added as string

I think you just need to understand how filesystems work and what a URL is. ../ is the parent directory ./ is the current directory / is the root directory If you reference /image.png from a page found at http://example.org/foo/bar.php, the browser will request the resource at http://example.org/image.png.

Re: [PHP] Re: trouble with array_search
the problem is, when you do it the second way, it drops the leading zero off
the number.
and the first way you are telling it that you are setting a string.
Try this.
print_r(array(001,'001',002,'002'));
you will notice that on two of them, you don't see the leading zeros, that
is because normal integers do not retain their leading zeros even if you
enter them.

You aren't understanding what that flag does:
; - allow_call_time_pass_reference = Off [Code cleanliness]
; It's not possible to decide to force a variable to be passed by reference
; when calling a function. The PHP 4 style to do this is by making the
; function require the relevant argument by reference.
This flag does not apply to what you have above. What this disables
is the ablity to decide at 'call time', of the function, to pass by
reference or not. This was an old method and changed in php 4:
function foo($bar) { }
foo(&$mybar); // this is what it doesn't allow.
It is up to the function to declare if you want to pass by
reference or not, this is not depricated:
function foo_reference(&$bar) { }
function foo_copy($bar) { }

How could the parser possibly know that one was missing as it's going
through the file? It just keeps a count and can only realize something
is wrong when it gets to the end of the file and sees the count is off.

I can't see how a human could determine this prior to getting to the end
either, unless you assume that the author has properly indented the code. Am I
missing something obvious?
if ($foo) { if ($bar) echo 'blah'; else { echo 'else'; }
Where is the missing brace? :-)

I'm pretty sure I've seen an error message from something (maybe,
asp.net, or classic asp) that shows a line like i've drawn and points to
where it thinks the problem is. (And no it wasn't always the end of the
last line.) But maybe my memory is a little foggy.

I should also add (before someone corrects me) that is could have been
related to syntax errors only and not missing braces. Thus the "But
maybe my memory is a little foggy." clause in my previous post.

The issue with the session still being around when your browser
closed then reopened has to with the ini setting:
session.cookie_lifetime
You want it to be 0, for it to expire as soon as the browser closes.
You might want to manage your lifetime of the session yourself,
like Tom Rogers suggested. This will also avoid issues with clock
settings on the client's computer. So a set up with something like
this:
php.ini:
session.cookie_lifetime = 0
file.php:
$lifetime = (60 * 10); // 10 minutes lifetime
session_start();
if (! empty($_SESSION['last_access'] &&
$_SESSION['last_access'] >= (time() + $lifetime) ) {
// Session has expired
$_SESSION = array(); // kill session
} else {
$_SESSION['last_access'] = time();
}
-OR-
if you're not worried about the client's clock being fast or slow:
php.ini:
session.cookie_lifetime = 10;

If a garbage collect is not triggered the data is still valid as far as php is concerned. You have to implement your own timeout checks if you need exactly 24 minutes. You can do this by storeing the last accessed time in the $_SESSION array and check it on each start. I think by default garbage is collected 1 in every 100 hits.

It seems that HTML is LAME, LAME,LAME when it comes to determining local directories. I would like to somehow: put image links relative to a base directory (if a relative URI is given) and have PAGE links relative to the current page (if a relative URI is given) What I seem to be able to do instead, is to: with NO in the header hard code the location of the images use relative URI for pages -OR- with NO in the header use relative location of the images hard code the URI for pages there seems no way to tell the browser to look below the base of the site for relative URI for images, but do local to the current file relative for other pages.

You can psudo trap the error message, if you have the php.ini
setting 'track_errors' on then you can do something like:
if (! @imap_fetchstructure(...) ) {
array_push($errors, $php_errormsg);
}
The @ suppresses direct output to the browser. and php_errormsg
contains the string that woulda been sent.

Re: [PHP] PHP - XHTML converter to HDML or WML
Hi, The best approach for you is to use XSLT. good information about XSLT can be found on w3shcools.com briefly what it can do is to take an xml and convert it to virtually any other format. For this is to happen though you need to have strict XHTML transistion will not do because it's not always well formed. If you are really keen to parse your XHTML and go on that path, it can be done with SAX (once again provided that it's well formed). Otherwise the best HTML parser i have seen actuall comes with perl. best regards raditha Joe Harman wrote: Hey maybe you guys can help me out here. I would like to start developing for WAP enabled devices. since there are a lot of people out there who still have phones that use different version of WML and still some that use HDML. and then the new phones being able to display XHTML.
