[PHP] getting rid of NOTICE
I have this short script (below) that does checking whether a userid has an associated
jpegPhoto in an LDAP database. The script is working fine but gave a 'Notice' msg bcos
I made error_reporting to report all errors.
Notice: Undefined index: jpegphoto in test.php on line 34
Question: How do I make the Notice go away without changing error reporting to
error_reporting (E_ALL ~E_NOTICE) ?
Please advise.

Re: [PHP] getting rid of NOTICE
I dont know how to explain this but when you work with an ldap attribute, they are
case sensitive. jpegPhoto was what the schema was written with.
However when you retrieve that into PHP, you accessed them with all lower case. So
accessing userPassword attribute in ldap will become userpassword in PHP.
Just to satisfy your curiosity, I have changed that to your advise with running the
script produces identical result.

Re: [PHP] How to implement mass emailing?
Hi,
you can create a mailscript to run seperartly in the background, so
when a administrator wishes to send a mass mail, it writes the content
to a database and then executes a stand alone mailing script eg:
exec(' php phpmailscript.php logflile.txt '); use the to run the
script in the background.
This script can then pull info from a db (user and content) and mail
individually and log that the user was sent a email. This will also
save you the hassel of worring about administrators closing the
browser and having to resend the mail again and if there are thousands
of emails you can then schedual email's to be sent at specific times,
in the evening for example.

you can set max time by set_time_limit(), for disable

this is a completely expected result. What you're doing is:
statically calling function a() which is defined in a PARENT class.
Inside this parent class, the function calls __CLASS__, which is a magic
constant, holding the name of the class it's in AT THAT MOMENT, and the
class it IS in is the parent class!.
There is no easy way to do what you ask for. If you were using
non-static objects/functions, then you could use get_class($this), which
would work just fine. However, when using it statically, $this does not

Hi Michael, Thanks very much for the assistance, I'll have to investigate further! Kind Regards, Aidan Lister Michael Sims [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Aidan Lister wrote: Hello list, I'm pretty terrible with regular expressions, I was wondering if someone would be able to help me with this http://paste.phpfi.com/31964 The problem is detailed in the above link. Basically I need to match the contents of any HTML tag, except a link. I'm pretty sure a lookbehind set is needed in the center (%s) bit. Any suggestions would be appreciated, but it's not quite as simple as it sounds - if possible please make sure you run the above script and see if it PASSED. So basically, you want to put a link around foo, only if it doesn't already have one, right? The problem with look-behind assertions is that they have to be fixed-width. If you're certain of what kind of data you're going to be dealing with then this may be sufficient. For example, I came up with a regex that will PASS your script but I doubt seriously that it'll be very useful to you as it would be easy to break it by coming up with various test cases. For your single test case, however, this works: /(?!a href=foo)(?!a href=)(foo)/ The problem is that HTML tags can be split across lines...they have have any variable amount of whitespace within the tag...they can have other attributes (class, id, onClick), etc. Since look behind assertions have to be fixed width it'd be impossible (IMHO) to come up with a single regex that would match all cases, unless the input data was uniform. For example, stuff like a href = foo ID=id1 class=redlink onClick=javascript:someFunction();foo/a and its infinite variants could not be trapped for with a single regex since you cannot have an infinite number of fixed width look-behind assertions. If quantifying modifiers such as '*', '+', and '?' were allowed in look-behind assertions it would be possible, but they aren't (see man perlre). If your data is coming from unknown sources you'll probably have to use a full fledged HTML parser to pull out text that isn't already part of an a tag. I know there are several of these available for perl and I'm sure there are for PHP too but I'm unaware of them. Sorry if this isn't terribly helpful.

It's complaining because you're trying to read from an array index
that hasn't been set, Assuming this isn't a typo or something, if you
want to avoid the notice you normally have two options:
1. initialise all the indexes that you plan to use.
2. check whether the index has been set before you try to read from it.
In this case, you're pretty much stuck with the second option as
you're getting the array from an external source.
So do something like this:
$photo = isset($resultEntries[0][jpegphoto]) ?
$resultEntries[0][jpegphoto] : array('count' = 0);

Re: [PHP] How to implement mass emailing?
Well, you do have a number of options. First, as someone suggested, you can write a CLI script that doesn't depend on a web browser being connected to run. That's probably the best solution overall, because you have the most control over what happens. You can even trigger it indirectly through a call to a web page. If you want to run the script through the web, you can set_time_limit(0) to prevent your script from timing out and register_shutdown_function() to ensure that your script continues running even if the user terminates the connection from the browser. Because of this, though, you will also need a mechanism that makes it possible for the script to determine whether there is another instance of the script running, so that you can prevent an overanxious usre from refreshing your script multiple times because he can't tell that it's still sending out mail and hit your mailing list more than once. Finally, you will need a fast mailing mechanism. mail() is not your only option--you can interface directly with any mailer through SMTP or pipes, for example--but in my experience, you don't need to go any further to make things work properly. What you really need, is a fast MTA that is capable of queueing your messages and deliverying them efficiently, like qmail. If you want an easier way of composing e-mail programmatically, you may want to take a look at PHPMailer (http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/), which can simplify things significantly and can also interface directly with a fast MTA like qmail. We use a combination of these techniques to send out tens of thousands of notifications once every month, and never had a problem with it.

And I'm wonder how to implement this on PHP. Sending an email to each subscribers can take a much time and PHP will stop after max_execution_time.

actually, that path you gave depends on the system (OS), the way it's

and most common, location though.
A different way of executing such scripts is by adding a cronjob like
* * * * * * /usr/bin/php -q /path/to/script
This does exactly the same as what Petar said, except that the script is
passed to the interpreter, and thus the user that the crondaemon runs
the script as only needs read (and doesn't need execute) permission to
the script.
However; To find out the path to the interpreter, since you're saying
you can't just call 'php -v' or any such commands, we'll need to
investigate further.
One way of doing this is a bit ugly, but it works. Instead of calling
PHP directly, we'll call the server and request the php script (if you
want, you can add tons of security shit in the call). We'll be doing
this using wget (on Linux systems).
Imagine you'd like to run the following script:
?php
// (let's presume it's located in www.example.net/scripts/bin/mail.php)
if($_GET['user'] == 'a' $_GET['pass'] == 'b') {
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'sub','body');
} else {
header('Status: 404 Not Found');
exit;
}
?
You can call this as follows:
* * * * * * wget
http://www.example.net/scripts/bin/mail.php?user=apass=b ; rm -f ./mail.php
The first part will call the server via an http connection to run the
script and show its output. It then downloads it to the directory run
from, and saves it. That is what wget does. The second part, after the
semicolon, the 'rm -f ./mail.php' will make sure to get rid of the file
after it's been run.
I hope this small example, will help you ;)

[PHP] Muti-Dimensional Array Help Please
hello all,
I have some text files in a directory that contain newline delimited IP
addresses. Here is what i would like to do with them, and what i have
achieved so far:
I read the files into a multi-dimensional array like: (pseudo code)
array(IP_blocks) = (
File_number[1] = array('ip1', 'ip2', 'ip3')
File_number[2] = array('ip1', 'ip2', 'ip3')
File_number[3] = array('ip1', 'ip2', 'ip3')
)
the ip files have variable numbers of ips, some have 5 ips, some 40
etc..
What i want to do is to run a loop through the whole thing doing a task
on each IP address. Easy so far right? - Well, where im stuck is that i
want to operate on them like this:
do_stuff(File_number[1][ip1])
do_stuff(File_number[2][ip1])
do_stuff(File_number[3][ip1])
do_stuff(File_number[1][ip2])
do_stuff(File_number[2][ip2])
do_stuff(File_number[3][ip2])
I cant even get that far LoL! but then there is the problem of what
happens when there is no IP left in an array? (its a short file of
ips..)? - I need to start that particular array back at the beggining
but continue the cycle (it doesnt matter that an ip is worked on more
than once..)
Here is the *actual* code I have so far:
##CODE
?php
/*
* Open the proxies dir and read all of the
* ips contained within each file into a mutidimensional
* array ($machines)
*/
$dir = dir('proxies');
while(FALSE !== ($file = $dir-read())) {
if($file != '.' $file != '..') {
$machines[$file] = file($dir-path . '/' .$file);
}
}
$dir-close();
foreach($machines as $machineId = $ips) {
// do stuff here
}
###END CODE
Im not really expecting anyone to be able to do my work for me but some
*guidance* regardig how to tackle this problem would be magnificent...
Thankyou..

if it doesn't matter in what order they are all processed, then you
could so it like this:
?php
foreach($machines as $machineId = $ips) {
foreach($ips as $ip) {
do_stuff($ip);
}
}
?
However, if it does matter, then I suggest a different way. This would
order them by their 2nd index, not the first (meaning by
$machines[1][1], $machines[2][1], etc);
?php
$max = 0;
foreach($machines as $machineId = $ips) {
$max = ($max = count($ips) ? $max : count($ips));
}
for($i=0;$i$max;$i++) {
foreach($machines as $machineId = $ips) {
if(isset($ips[$i])) {
do_stuff($ips[$i]);
} else {
continue;
}
}
}
?
but that's just my point of view ;)

It looks like you're hading in the right direction. You've grabbed an array
of each file. Then cycle through that array and read data from each file.
The fread function will allow you to pull data from each file line by line,
so you can store each line in an array. Using your idea of pseudo-code:
$data = array();
$i = 1;
foreach ( file ) {
$n = 1;
fp = fopen
while ($line = fread() ){
$data[$i][$n] = $line;
}
}
foreach ($data as $key = $line ) {
foreach ($line as $line_number = $ip) {
// do stuff
}
}

[PHP] Page cannot be displayed after form submission
Hi all. I have a form that calls the same page whenever it is submitted. It does some error-checking to make sure that all the appropriate fields were filled in by the user. So, if there's an error, it stays on the same page and lets the user know what they need to fill in. However, I get `Page cannot be displayed` error if the page calls itself and has to reload some data but only in IE for Windows. If I hit the `Refresh` button, the page shows up and all the appropriate fields are filled in or not filled in with the specified error message. It does not give the `Page cannot be displayed` error in other browsers: Mozilla and Firefox for Windoze, Safari and IE for Mac. Despite the fact that IE for Windoze is immensely inferior, is there a reason/get-around for this happening? I can actually fix it to where it doesn't do it, but it's a hack. I have the form actually call a different page - but then that page just has an automatic redirect back to the original page. And all the information shows up correctly without the `Page cannot be displayed.` Thanks for staying in tuned this far. Anyone have any thoughts on why this is happening?

hehe, not sure i get it but im playing with it ;-) i need to see code in

though (i think): If i can create an array with all of the ips in order
like this
123.123.123.1 // 1st IP from machine 1
123.123.123.2 // 1st IP from machine 2
123.123.123.3 // 1st IP from machine 3
123.123.123.4 // 2nd IP from machine 1
123.123.123.5 // 2nd IP from machine 2
123.123.123.4 // 2nd IP from machine 3
etc...
then i would have *exactly* what the application needs. Does that make
the problem any easier?

Hello all,
I didn't see any reaction on my previous message so let me try again.
I noticed some problems with PEAR Auth package. Here they are:
1. (See my email below). I still don't see any reaction. But that is
obviously a bug.
2. I found a very troublesome problem with installation of Auth package on
old PHP (4.3.3). (Newer PHP versions haven't this problem.) PEAR installer
fails because of the file named .tmpusers (it has zero length - is this
file
really needed?).
When I unzip the archive, add some characters to this file, delete
appropriate md5 attribute in package XML and zip all this back -
installation goes fine.
What is working wrong: old PHP, PEAR installer, or that is a problem of
Auth
package?

Subject: Auth package bug or documentation issue?
Hello all,
I got a very strange behavior of getAuthData() method of Auth class.
I tried to follow the example given here:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.authentication.auth-http.auth-
http.example2.php but any kind of calls like $objAuth-getAuthData() or
$objAuth-getAuthData('id') etc. returned no result (null value or empty
array).
Then I dug a little in the sources and found that there is an error in
the
example code, the line
'dbFields'=*,// enabling fetch for other db columns
have to be
'db_fields' = '*' // enabling
Re: [PHP] Page cannot be displayed after form submission
Philip Thompson wrote: Hi all. I have a form that calls the same page whenever it is submitted. It does some error-checking to make sure that all the appropriate fields were filled in by the user. So, if there's an error, it stays on the same page and lets the user know what they need to fill in. However, I get `Page cannot be displayed` error if the page calls itself and has to reload some data but only in IE for Windows. If I hit the `Refresh` button, the page shows up and all the appropriate fields are filled in or not filled in with the specified error message. It does not give the `Page cannot be displayed` error in other browsers: Mozilla and Firefox for Windoze, Safari and IE for Mac. Despite the fact that IE for Windoze is immensely inferior, is there a reason/get-around for this happening? I can actually fix it to where it doesn't do it, but it's a hack. I have the form actually call a different page - but then that page just has an automatic redirect back to the original page. And all the information shows up correctly without the `Page cannot be displayed.` Thanks for staying in tuned this far.

Re: [PHP] Referencing a constant class variable
A work around I've used in the past has been to use a keyed array such as: $MyEnums = array( is = This, at = That, er = Other ); Only problem is that the above doesn't address my need (which I included in a subsequent post and probably should have included in my initial post). In order to use the above, I'd have to add it to the global scope and I'm not too keen on that. I tried using define(), but that doesn't seem to like defining arrays as constants. It would just have been very nice if PHP4 could have allowed access to a class' member variable w/o the need for instantiating the class. thnx, Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] RE: displaying blob images from a mssql db
Most often, when people are storing an binary file in a db, they are storing the absolute path to the file on the file system instead. So it should be as simple as extracting the file path from the database, using the copy() function to copy that file from the original file path to a location somewhere under the public_html/www/inetpub directory so it's accessible to the web server (make sure the directory, such as images, has the proper write permissions so that the script can write a file into that directory) and then generate the img tag pointing to the new file location. -Original Message- From: blackwater dev [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wed 10/6/2004 8:49 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Subject:displaying blob images from a mssql db Ok, I know images shouldn't be saved in the db but this isn't my db so I can't change that.

[PHP] Help with Array Sorting Please
Hi, If you scroll up the list you'll see another thread of mine, this is related. The reason for a new thread is that i've made a lot of progress but the old was getting really confusing.. Here's the scoop: I have an array like this: 123 = 1 // each value may have few or many duplicate values 321 = 1 543 = 2 432 = 2 // like here, more 2's than 1's see? 566 = 2 568 = 2 999 = 3 878 = 3 444 = 3 Now, the keys are not the issue. What i would really like, is for that array, to end up like this: 123 = 1 543 = 2 999 = 3 321 = 1 432 = 2 878 = 3 123 = 1 566 = 2 and so on... The important point here is that it does not matter if a key is repeated in the resultant array, in fact, that's *good* as long as it starts from the beggining again when there are no more values = (for example) '1' With me? If it helps to understand, each key is an IP address, each value a Machine number - my job is to never hit the same machine 2x in a row or the same IP 2x in a row, but to cycle through all the IP's on each Machine like the example resultant array.

[PHP] Interrupting instantiation
In PHP4, is there any way to interrupt instantiation of an
object? For example, by returning NULL as the return
value of the class constructor so that the variable you are
assinging the object to is, instead, null?
Here's what I'm trying to do:
class MyClass {
function MyClass() {
return NULL;
}
}
$myVar = new MyClass();
echo 'IsObject? [' . is_object( $myVar ) . ']br';
I would expect $myVar to be a NULL value. Or at least,
not an object of MyClass. But it is an object of MyClass.
So is there any way to interrupt the instantiation? So that,
if there is an error during the execution of the constructor,
an object isn't returned?
thnx,

What you really need, is a fast This is a common misconception. It seems that most people confuse queueing with deliverying. Queuing via SMTP is a much slower method than queuing messages directly to the local mailer. The TCP communication overhead is much higher than sending data via pipes or just dropping messages in the local mailer queue. When you run a bulk mail campaign it does not matter how fast the local MTA can send messages to the remote recipients because often the messages are just dropped in the local queue a delivered later. What matters is how long does it take to inject a message in the local queue so your bulk mail script can run faster. Some people think that queueing via Sendmail is slower than via SMTP because their Sendmail installation is configured to attempt to deliver the messages immediately and that can take too long. The solution is not using SMTP. The solution is to configure sendmail to just queue the messages so its queue manager can deliver them later and your PHP bulk mail script can run much faster. Nowadays even queueing with Windows 2000 or later using IIS or Exchange mail servers is even faster than doing it with sendmail/qmail/etc.. because it allows drop mail messages in a special folder for later pickup and your PHP script can run much faster the bulk mail campaigns because all it is needed is to write queued messages files, so no pipes needed to be opened. All these mail queueing optimization tricks and a few other have been implemented in this class that can be used to take advantage of this knowledge on how to queue bulk mail messages the fastest way possible depending on your preferred delivery method: mail, sendmail/exim/postfix, qmail, SMTP, windows pickup, etc... http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] session_save_path
For all you're talking about, It looks like your hosting provider is running PHPsuExec. So, PHP is now running as CGI and .htaccess does not work anymore to setup PHP values or flags (Will fire a 500 internal server error). Instead, you have to use a custom php.ini fle. (just write in this custom php.ini the values you need to change). I don't know where you should place the custom php.ini file, but sure your hosting provider will tell you where -or try with phpinfo()-. Also, keep in mind that PHP does not run anymore as nobody nor apache. Normally in shared hosting will use your own hosting account. Hope this helps a bit, Jordi.

But now, years later, I look back and there sure are a lot of us using it, hobby or not: http://www.php.net/usage.php I will add that I've been feeding my family with my PHP skills for several years now. Can anyone point me to resources about versioning and inherent strengths and reliability of PHP? PHP strives to remain backwards compatible except in the most extreme cases, and only has compatibility breakages across major revisions. I know this from experience but I'm sure there are some docs to prove it as well. One of PHP's inherent strengths is it's super-low (easy) learning curve. You can be writing complex scripts in as little as a few days, possibly less if you're already a programmer in some other language like Java or Perl or C++. Another strength is the PHP manual. In my opinion no one scripting language on the planet has an online manual as good as PHP has. I can't begin tell you how many times I've copied and pasted code straight out of the manual to get the job done fast and efficiently. And last but not least, look where you are.

This is the actual script I need it to work in.
I still am not sure how I would use printf or sprintf I don't want

The startnumber and stopnumber will always change. some times they
will start with a whole number and sometimes they will start with
just one 0. As you can see with this range of number it starts with
1 it needs to add 1 to that number to make it 2 when it gets
into the 100 it needs to look like this 00100.
$startnumber=1;

-- Original message from Matthew Sims : -- www.thewb.com (uses PHP for the interactive areas such as message boards, polls, etc.) Up until September 2003 I was the developer for PHP applications for this site. To the best of my knowledge the message board is the only thing using PHP. Prior to the AOL/Time Warner merger the majority of interective content on the site was driven by PHP. But after the merger all developement started migrating to Vignette, I would estimate this was around 2001 or 2002. Occassionally if they needed quick turn around time a poll or sweepstakes would be done in PHP. The same holds true for kidswb.com. My knowledge is a little over a year old, but when I left my former position there was very little WB development being done in PHP. I went from spending 30+ hours a week doing it to well under 5.

If you need to use the number as a string inside the loop, you will have to convert it back to a string. You can do this with sprintf, as in: $str_num = sprintf(%05.0f,$i); You can use var_dump($varname) to see what kind of data is stored in $varname.

Re: [PHP] general research question(thanks!)
Thanks for all the great replies. I will have fun preparing this particular report. -dg It can be difficult to show support for Open Source software when up against proprietary software when proprietary has the backing of money to offer assistance. With Open Source, when something goes wrong, YOU get the blame. With proprietary, the software company gets the blame. The company I work for is branched off into several data centers. Luckily, the data center I work at is very open minded with open source software and I take advantage of it greatly. It's served my center in many ways. Yet, the company as a whole is still very Microsoft-centric, even going as far to say that the only IM client you're allowed to use is Microsoft's with their main intranet website requiring IE only. Yet we're having budget cuts for 2005. It kinda makes me sick to think what money could be saved if we switched some of strategies to free software. The knowledge base and know-how is there with us techs, it's just the upper management that's out of the loop. Anyways, ending my slightly OT rant and going back to PHP, my only guess as to how to speak with your boss is to show the similarities between Sharepoint and PHP rather than showing what Sharepoint can't do. That would put your boss on the defensive and make him/her resent you. Then after you show the similarities, show the costs/savings of Sharepoint/PHP. Does that make sense? -- --Matthew Sims --http://killermookie.org -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
