[PHP] failed to open stream error

[Richard Kurth]

 Way do I get
 Warning: 
fopen(https://esos.state.nv.us/SOSServices/AnonymousAccess/CorpSearch/CorpDetails.aspx?CorpID=478765):
 failed to open stream: Invalid argument
 When I run this. I can access the page from the browser but not from
 inside of a script
 

fopen("https://esos.state.nv.us/SOSServices/AnonymousAccess/CorpSearch/CorpDetails.aspx?CorpID=478765";,'r');

Re: [PHP] Getting checkboxes as array

[Sebastian]

well, your trying to get the insert_id() without running the query first. so 
you have to add:

mysql_query($query);

before:

$art_id = mysql_insert_id();

also, your foreach loop should be:
foreach ($media_types as $type)
(without the brackets [])

i am assuming $media_types is an array already.

You didn't appear to be running the query before trying to get the
last ID - so there's obviously not going to be an ID which will cause
the subsequent queries to fail, as they rely on them.

jj> foreach ($media_types[] as $type)
jj> {

jj>   $query .= "INSERT INTO media_art
jj> (media_art_id,media_id, art_id)
jj>VALUES ('','" . $type . "','" . $art_id . "')";
jj>// perform query here

Before you run the query you need to check what $type contains - you
don't want to perform an insert for every single checkbox, only for
those that have actually been checked.

Also - you don't appear to be actually performing the query at all
here - you're just appending it onto the $query string. You can't do
it like this if you need the IDs returned - you have to actually DO
the query THEN get the ID, then move onto the next stage.

So at this point in your code you need to actually perform a query.

Best regards,

Richard Davey

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes

[Rory Browne]

It's probably something to do with maximum memory, or something like
that, but taking into account that your method is stretching the
resources, fopen/fread may be a better solution.

I'd be curious to see the benchmarked differences  - but couldn't be
bothered at this minute doing the benchmarking atm.

Re: [PHP] Getting checkboxes as array

[Sebastian]

Don't forget to mention that even if you don't select a checkbox it will 
still add a empty record to the db.. i know for sure the foreach loop 
will add a record even if a box is not check, so you have to check its 
actually set before you start inserting.

[PHP] Getting checkboxes as array

[jack jackson]

HI I have a form which pulls values from the db, and thanks to help
from the irc chat, hopefully makes any checkboxes which are selected
part of an array to be gotten in post:

while ($media_rows = mysql_fetch_assoc($media_result)){
  
$checkbox_media[] = "{$media_rows['media_name']}  ";
}

I'd like to now add the value of any checked box to an intersection
table based on my last question to the list:

$art_id = mysql_insert_id();

What I'd like to end up with is  something which for each value in
media_types[] create a New row in the intersection table (media_art)

However how can I make this:

$query = "INSERT INTO media_art (media_art_id,art_id, media_id) 
VALUES ('','" . $art_id . "','" . $media_types[2]. "')";  

repeat as many or few times as possible to account for the number of
checked boxes, such as

$art_id $media_types[5]
$art_id $media_types[9]

etc

I suspect it's something to do with the foreach but I'm stuck in
figuring it out.

Thanks in advance!


$media_types[] = ($_POST['media_types[]']);

Why not just increase the PHP script timeout value to something that
works better for your current situation? You can do this from the code
itself, not just the php.ini

Hey Richard,

I was going to do that... also, I do have access to my php.ini... I
was just thinking it wasn't a good thing to do

hmmm... would it okay to make it like 5 minutes??? or is that
unadvisable... i may be running into apache limits then


and also browser limits. if you make the timeout 5 minutes, send some 
output and flush() every few iterations.

Why not just increase the PHP script timeout value to something that
works better for your current situation? You can do this from the code
itself, not just the php.ini

Assuming MySQL - just use 2 insert statements and after each one get

[Matt Babineau]

Well after the first query you could do this:

$art_id = mysql_insert_id();

There is your new unique art_id you just created.

Do this for the next table, the do the insert on your 3rd table.

Hi,

   Hi,

  Tried it and it works indeed, but it's quite annoying to make such tricks
and is not the best solution either; fopen and fread are "expensive".
   I can't say if it's a bug in PHP or some config option.

[PHP] Three queries. One Form.

[jack jackson]

Hi, 
I am trying to make one form on a single page insert info into three
tables; query 1 creates an art_id (auto-increment) for the newly
created row in table art;

query2 creates a media_id in table media. 

Then I need to get the art_id and media_id created by the first two
queries to insert into an intersection table as query three.

Must I run an intermediate query to get the ids, and assign it to
vars? What would it even look like?

Thanks in advance,

Yeah, I know the feeling of resignation well

But, with a PDF, being that they were designed to do this, I think you'll
have more luck. I will warn you though, building a PDF in PHP isn't a piece
of cake, even with the available classes out there.

One option I had considered, before I gave up struggling with this
question, was to change all the colors to foreground colors by using
 tags and creating the images on the fly with PHP in the proper
color (with text if I want to)> (images will print by default in most
browsers. But hold on for the upload time, nothing is free).

There are some things (this one being an example) that you just can't
control from the server side.

Another one is forcing a page to print as landscape. I have long since
given up on that one for sign-in rosters. I just put a big note next
to the link to make sure to print it in landscape.

As for IE / FF borders, that one drives me nuts too. I like to use
outset and inset borders for a 3-D look, but in IE it's all
stairstepped when I do nested borders.

I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you other than I don't think
you're going to achieve what you want with CSS.

If I decide the write a script, and it is my idea, then the point of

random numbers a thousand time?"  No, it's not gonna happen.  I
decided what the benckmark would do, and so I wrote it.  I wrote two

If you think it matters a great deal rewrite the benchmark and remove
it.  The OO version will still be slower.

Putting a single function call in a wrapper function is better known
as 'abstraction'.  If later I decide to use srand() instead of
mt_srand() I only have to change it in one place.

Exactly why I always write procedural style.  It's much faster to
code, to run, and to debug.

[PHP] Php.net/pdf -> Making a PDF from the invoice

[Matt Babineau]

Speaking of PDF...I was looking at php.net/pdf and couldn't figure out if
there was a way I could just dump in the html of the page and have it output
as a pdf? Does anyone have any sample code for dumping HTML to PDF format?
(Using PDFlib). Didn't seem like the samples on php.net were that good.

Most web browsers I know of don't print anything specified as background by
default.  I imagine that functionality extends to CSS-defined background
colors and images.  I doubt there's a way to change that preference other
than setting it manually.  If changing the print settings on your machine
will not work for you, then you may consider PDF, though it certainly comes
with it's own hassles.

Matt,

Taking into account what Leif has pointed out here, maybe you can have a
link that sends the page to the printer automatically that before doing
anything pops a dialog instructing the user to turn on background
images. Give the user instructions on how to do it and two buttons
"print" and "cancel".

You realize that the printing of background colors is determined primarily
by the user's browser right?

In IE:
Tools / Internet Options / Advanced / Under Printing section.

In Firefox:
File / Page Setup / Under Options

Re: [PHP] Beautiful HTML Invoice -> Prints like crap! I need somesuggestions!

[Kristen G. Thorson]

Most web browsers I know of don't print anything specified as background 
by default.  I imagine that functionality extends to CSS-defined 
background colors and images.  I doubt there's a way to change that 
preference other than setting it manually.  If changing the print 
settings on your machine will not work for you, then you may consider 
PDF, though it certainly comes with it's own hassles.

Isn't this a user selectable option, which by default is turned off (on
most browsers)?

My Internet explorer has an advance configuration option that enables
"Print background colors and images".

Don't think you can override the users selection on this.

[Matt Babineau]

Unfortunately you can't override this setting. It is really quite
frustrating overall - I'm sure some of you have used background color to
create an excel style table...or maybe I'm just doing things totally wrong.
Customers get to login to get their invoices, so I really want them to be
able to print a copy. I've looked into PDFing the invoice but its just a bit
easier to hit the print button and be done since Adobe PDF usually crashes
your browser :(

Actually, that is the point. 

What Chris was getting at is that usually you have a bit more going on
in a function or method -- several operations, not just a wrapper for a
single operation -- that the function/method call serves to abstract.
So, calling a method that simply calls and returns a single php internal
function call isn't going to give a good comparison; we already know
that calling the function is faster.

Unless you have several function libraries that were developed
separately and *do* have the same function names. Where I work, for
instance, at one point we had three function libraries, developed
separately, that each had their own 'send' function, which worked fine
until we tried to develop an application that mixed some functionality
from the different libraries.

Granted, we could have refactored and split out the common functionality
from the libraries into a separate library, but we found it was much
easier to wrap everything into classes and uses the class structure as a
namespace.

(We've since completely refactored and gone all OOP, but that's neither
here nor there.)

That's *your* experience. You're going to keep seeing namespace
discussions pop up whenever other people have experiences that indicate
namespaces would help solve the issue. You're also going to have the
issue pop up whenever you have developers from other languages start
using PHP. I come from a perl background; I'd *love* to have namespaces
in PHP... but I can use classes to emulate them fairly well.

Again, your experience. I *have* seen OOP PHP that was easier to read
and maintain. I've seen (and written) some perfectly horrendous
procedural code that was a nightmare to read and maintain.

You're right -- you should try to write efficient code. But sometimes
you have to look at programmer efficiency as well -- if you're working
for a client under a deadline, you don't always have that luxury.

[PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes

[Catalin Trifu]

Hi,

   I installed php5 using the configue below. I tried with apache2 as well and 
same things.

'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php5' 
'--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--disable-cgi'
'--with-config-file-path=/etc/php5' '--with-dom' '--with-gd' '--enable-sockets' 
'--enable-exif'
'--with-freetype2' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2' 
'--enable-gd-native-ttf'
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-curl' '--with-curlwrappers' '--enable-ftp' 
'--with-mysql=/usr'
'--with-xsl' '--with-libxml-dir=/usr'

   I have a script which generates a temporary catalog file, which is generated 
correctly having
4.7MB on disk.
   Then I push up the wire with readfile($filname):

   header("Content-Type: text/csv");
   header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=somfilename.csv");
   header("Content-Length: ". filesize($file));

   readfile($file);

   I also tried with fopen.
   If I try to download the file directly from apache it works, all 4.7MB are 
received.

   As expected the browser starts the download and reports it is expecting a 
file of 4.7MB.
   However, the download stops at 2.000.000 bytes no matter what browser I use 
(normally i use
Firefox on Linux), no matter if php runs on apache2 or apache1.3

   Is there some php config option I missed ?
   Could this be from curlwrappers ?
   Where could this come from ?


Thanks,
Catalin

Of course I have the developer tools installed - I wouldn't even be

is squarely targeted at development of OS X applications that are set

almost none of the thousands of open source projects available via

designed for a standard unix-style build system using the tools I  
mentioned.


Doesn't 10.4 ship with gcc 4? I know I read about some bugs and  
problem with gcc 4, some specifically related to PPC chips. Do you  
know if you are compiling using 3.3 or 4.0?


I'm using the standard system gcc 4.0.0, but this is a problem with  
the parameters (defined in the PHP configure script) passed to ld, so  
strictly speaking this is a linking rather than a compiling problem  
(i.e. the problem occurs after gcc has finished successfully). It  
seems that the OS X ld has different options to the GNU or BSD  
implementations, so I guess I'm really after someone that knows ld  
well enough.

Indeed, that's working ;)

But PHP doesn't do much here, I'd say it's more a libxslt "bug", but I
didn't look up the standards (but your assumption seems obvious)

Sure.. you could the domain name of the server that MySQL is really

But they might have locked MySQL down so that you cannot access it

According to Google, my MySQL db is not on secure.inetwave.com server 
and have to use "something else" instead of "localhost" for host in 
mysql_connect(), right?

RE: [PHP] Is there a big speed difference...

[bruce]

in all honesty, it would really depend on how good the compiler/optimizer
is.. but since you're dealing with php.. and i assume that there's not a
good (if any) optimization process...

i would tend to say, include the function/file once, use the function as
required...

Yes, there is a big difference. Including files is expensive, even with
a compiler cache.

Hope that helps.

you mentioned it was 6 lines of code - replicating it and commenting the code

ruled out the possibility of using an include. unless you intend to make a call

[PHP] Printing functions under PHP 4.3.11

[Fausto Mira]

Hi! First off, thank you very much for your efforts.

I have set up my php.ini file properly with the extension_dir tag. I
am running under Windows XP Apache 2.0.50 and PHP 4.3.11. I have
noticed that php_printer.dll was no longer part of these late versions
4.3.11 and 4.3.10. I tried an unconventional method and copied this
file from an older version of PHP 4 to the extensions directory.

When I try to start the Apache server, a Warning Message pops up with
the following error:

"Unknown(): Unable do load dynamic library
'C:\php\extensions\php_printer.dll' .

What's wrong with my PHP 4.3.11? These functions are now buit-in in
this version?

[PHP] XSLT processor and xsl:param - expected behavior?

[John Browne]

Question..  I'm using PHP 5.0.4 with the built-in libxslt-based xsl
extension. I'm passing XSL parameters to the XSL processor like so:

$xslt_proc->setParameter('', 'param_test', "some test value");

My question is, is it *required* to declare this parameter in the XSL
stylesheet with:



What I have noticed is, the transformation is successful and works the
same whether I declare the parameter using xsl:param or not.  The
following:



works fine without the xsl:param declaration, the xsl processor does
not give an error, and the parameter is available for use in the
stylesheet.

Shouldn't the xsl:param declaration be required and cause a
transformation error if it's missing?

Re: [PHP] Compilation trouble on OS X

[Brent Baisley]

I'm pretty sure you have to install the developer tools in order to get 
the gcc compiler installed. So while you don't need XCode to compile, 
you do need the developer tools, which is almost synonymous with XCode.


Doesn't 10.4 ship with gcc 4? I know I read about some bugs and problem 
with gcc 4, some specifically related to PPC chips. Do you know if you 
are compiling using 3.3 or 4.0?

if you really really care about a few microseconds then test it. theory is
only half the story, the machine you run it on, the average load it has, etc, 
etc
will be the biggest factor in real world performance.

btw 5000 records is a small number, I have a script that regularly does syncing
on a 500,000 strong customer recordset - it runs for 3-4 minutes, but it runs. 
:-/
just to given an indication that your 5000 records will be processed in
a matter of seconds ... of course if you expect the recordset to grow 
substantially
during the lifetime of your code you should factor this in (which means testing
with a much bigger dataset probably)

I called mt_srand() inside the constructor, so it's only called once,
same as the procedural version.  This being an example of a class, it
seems like the logical place to put it.  I can remove it from both
versions but it's not gonna change much as far as speed.

I agree.  In the real world a given task will likely be more
complicated, but that's not the point here.

There is little point in making classes to then only use the methods
statically.  You could just put all your similar functions in an
include file and be done with it.  Nothing more annoying than working
on someone else's OO code and seeing Foo::bar() all over the place. 
Pointless.

If PHP needs namespaces then add them, last I heard the consensus was
that it didn't.  I've never needed them personally.  It doesn't seem
like enough justification to use objects just because you don't want
to rename a few functions in the rare event you actually have a
conflict.  Seriously, how many times have you been working on a PHP
project that was so big, with so many developers, that you bumped into
each other with function names?  Has yet to happen to me.

Renaming anything is simple when you use good tools.

for file in *.php; do
cp $file $file.tmp
sed -e "s/foo\(/prefix_foo\(/g" $file.tmp >$file
rm $file.tmp
done

I always value efficient code over time to code.  Doing more with less
hardware should always be a programmer's first goal in my opinion. 
The overhead involved in bringing a web-based object into existence
for the extremely short period of time it will live can never justify
the 'maintainability' and 'readability' arguments I'm always hearing
preached.  I've never seen any OO PHP code that was easier to read or
maintain for that matter.

This baffles me too then.  In your code above, if $name is not set, $err1
will be set to equal $error_style.  There is obviously more coming into play
than just this code snippet.  Double-check your variable names.  Place
strategically located 'echo' statements to see what is happening, for
instance, right after the above 'if' statement, place an 'echo $name;'.

try changing the amount of memory that php script can use, and see if

is suspiciosly equal to 8Mb/word size.

[PHP] http to https session problem

[Joe Harman]

Hey ladies & gents

I am having a little problem with users keeping the same session id
when they go from http to https... is there a work around for this...
I don't appear to have this problem when using openSSL just when the
site has it's own certificate.

should I store the session id in a cookie??? or is there another way or setting

zlib does gzip (.gz) and is not the same as [pkware] zip which I believe 
is what the OP wants.

OP, put your google googles on and look, there is (or was?) at least one 
solution which involved a zip handling library using pure PHP.

[PHP] PEAR AUTH - Login Session not expiring?

[Scott Sharkey]

Hi All,

Trying to use the PEAR Auth library.  I'm set up, and after a successful 
login, I'm making the $auth->setExpire(30*60) call to set up for 
expiration after 30 minutes.  But I left the web site last night, and 
this morning went back, and it was still active, so it didn't ask for
a password.  I also set the setIdle to 10*60 to set for 10 minutes IDLE 
time.  Is there something I'm missing?


Also - is there a way to modify the SQL the Auth program uses to look 
for an "enabled" flag?  As currently implemented, if the 
username/password exists, the user can login.  I need an additional flag 
for whether they have paid or not.  Am I best off writing my own Auth, 
or subclassing, or something?  Suggestions welcome.


Thanks.
-Scott

[PHP] _construct() problem

[Stéphane Bruno]

Hello,

I designed a "player" class with the following properties and
constructor:

class player {
  private $properties = array('firstname' => NULL, 'lastname' => NULL);

  function _construct($first, $last) {
$this->properties['firstname'] = $first;
$this->properties['lastname'] = $last;
  }
}

Then I have other methods that allow me to set and get the properties.
However, when I issue a:

$myplayer = new player('Laurent', 'Blanc');

it seems that the constructor is not taken into account: the properties
are not initialized. I have to explicitly initialize them with the
setter methods in order for the initialization to take place.

What did I do wrong?

I am running PHP 5.0.4 with Apache 2.0.54 on Fedora Core 1.

Does it re-populate the fields with the previously entered data?  If not,
register_globals might be off, and you'll have to set the variables
manually:

$name=$_POST['name'];

...or use them directly:
 
if (!$_POST['name']){...}

How small are we talking? and how often will this data change?

If the answer is "not very" and "not very" then why not just hard code
the data into a PHP script as a ready to include array (or similar) ?

If your situation allows it then there is nothing actually wrong in
doing this.

The reason to set to a value is to set the buffer size -- and usually
you do this to tune interaction between PHP and Apache and/or the
underlying OS. You want to set it to a value that matches Apache's
buffer size and/or the OS's network buffer size. If you don't know
these, using the defaults is probably the best bet.

I would not recommend running Apache as a service on XP if it's just
your development machine and you like doing other things on this PC
like playing games, etc :) Uninstall Apache. Get the latest 1.3 build
of it, install it and pick to choose all the settings yourself. Fill
the basics in (host name, etc) but do NOT set it to run as a service.
Complete the installation.

"Install" PHP 4 and 5
-

Grab the ZIP versions of PHP 4 and PHP 5 - do NOT get the
"installers", they're not worth the time and will only serve to
confuse you as to what has happened on your PC.

Create a local folder, perhaps something like:

D:\dev

Unzip PHP4 and 5 into this folder, so you have:

D:\dev\php-4.3.11
D:\dev\php-5.0.4

Edit the PHP INI files
--

Go into each folder and find the php.ini-dist file. Take a copy of it
and call it php4.ini. Do the same for php5.ini

Open up these files into Notepad. You can leave most of the settings
as they are, but find this one extension_dir and change it:

extension_dir = "D:\dev\php-4.3.11\extensions"

Do the same for the php5.ini (obviously the path will be different)

Also decide which extensions you want enabled. For example you may
want to un-comment

;extension=php_gd2.dll

to enable GD graphics support. Just remove the ;

For the PHP5 ini file you need to un-comment the php_mysqli.dll
extension if you want to use the new MySQLi commands (recommended).

Copy to the Windows directory
-

Save both of your ini files. Copy them both to the C:\Windows
directory.

Now copy these files into C:\Windows as well:

php4ts.dll (from the PHP4 folder)
php5ts.dll (from the PHP5 folder)

You should now have 4 PHP files in your Windows folder. Don't run
anything yet - it still won't work, we're getting there...

Configure Apache


Go into C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\conf

Make a copy the httpd.conf file and call it httpd_php4.conf
Make another copy, call it httpd_php5.conf

Open up the httpd_php4.conf in Notepad. Find the LoadModule section
and add this to the bottom of the list:

LoadModule php4_module "D:/dev/php-4.3.11/sapi/php4apache.dll"

Scroll down to the AddModule section and add this to the bottom:

AddModule mod_php4.c

Now scroll to the very bottom of this file and before the
 block starts, add this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps


Locate the "DirectoryIndex" value. It will have index.html,
add index.php to it:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

Finally make sure that NameVirtualHost is NOT commented and looks like
this:

NameVirtualHost *

Add this line under it:

Include "conf/sites.conf"

Save your file.

Repeat for PHP 5


Do ALL of the above, but this time do it to the httpd_php5.conf file.
You will need to use different LoadModule and AddModule lines, they
are:

LoadModule php5_module "D:/dev/php-5.0.4/php5apache.dll"
AddModule mod_php5.c

Everything else is the same however. Save this file.

Set Apache to handle local web sites


To set Apache up to handle different web sites create a blank file in
the conf folder called sites.conf - open it up into Notepad. Add an
entry like so:


ServerName bgs.dev
DocumentRoot D:\usr\home\bgs\public_html


ServerName is the domain name you wish to type in to access this site
locally. Do NOT use proper domain names! But rather if you are working
on a site called "phprocks.com" then put the ServerName as
"phprocks.dev"

Change the DocumentRoot to point to a location on your PC where your
web files FOR THAT SITE live. This can be anywhere.

Save this file (make sure it is called sites.conf and not
sites.conf.txt)

Nearly there!
-

Go into this folder (on XP):

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

Open the file called hosts into Notepad.

Add 1 line to it, at the bottom:

127.0.0.1  phprocks.dev

(change the domain to reflect whatever you added tot he ServerName
above)

Save this file.

Last step:
--

Go into your D:\dev folder. Create a blank text file called
go-php4.bat. Edit it in Notepad, add this:

@copy /Y "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\conf\httpd_php4.conf" 
"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\conf\httpd.conf"
@copy /Y "C:\WINDOWS\php4.ini" "C:\WINDOWS\php.ini"
@start "Apache" "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\A

Apache *is* a web server.  Nothing to fix here.  You need it to be a web
server to be able to develop against it.  If you don't want it to be
*ACCESSIBLE* from the web, firewall it.

You should probably download the version of PHP that has the installer:
 
http://www.php.net/get/php-5.0.4-installer.exe/from/a/mirror

It will install and configure PHP for you.

[PHP] Installation

[afrodriguez]

Hi!

I am running Apache on Windows XP and would like to install PHP.  I'll be using 
PHP within my computer for development purposes.

1st issue.  When I installed Apache, the installation program self-configures.  
Since I use a permanent, broadband connection, I think Apache detected it and 
assumed I was using Apache as a Web sever.  How can I fix this?

2nd issue.  I downloaded and extracted PHP 5.0.4-Win 32.  Although I read the 
installation instructions, I have no clue how to install it.  There are several 
files and I don't know which to execute to install PHP.  Or which file (if any) 
to configure.

Can someone please help me?

[PHP] Compilation trouble on OS X

[Marcus Bointon]

I've been beating my head against this  - I've done this so many  
times on BSD and Linux but I just can't get PHP 5.0.4 to compile on  
OS X. Even the simplest case:


./configure
make

fails with:

/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_mbstring_globals
_php_mb_encoding_translation
_php_mb_gpc_encoding_converter
_php_mb_gpc_encoding_detector
_php_mb_gpc_mbchar_bytes
_php_mb_strrchr
_php_ob_gzhandler_check
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [sapi/cgi/php] Error 1

I'm running 10.4.1 on a dual G4.

I've also built a much more complex configuration (why I need to do  
this) that configures OK, but gives me this on make:


/usr/bin/ld: unknown flag: -export-symbols
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libs/libphp5.bundle] Error 1

OS X's ld command definitely lacks this option, so I removed  
references to it from the configure script, and just got some  
different errors.


I have an up to date fink installed and I'm pulling in some stuff  
from there (jpeg, freetype etc), and my CFLAGS contains:


DBIND_8_COMPAT=1 -DEAPI -O3 -mcpu=G4 -mtune=G4 -I/sw/include

(I've tried emptying it too, same error)

I can't use the Entropy binaries as they're missing some extensions I  
need. There are no bugs posted on the PHP tracker that match these  
errors, so it's clearly not a common problem.


Any ideas what might be broken, and how I might fix it?

so,the file (.zip) can read via Zip File Functions , they dont have
any method to do compress things.

CSS is definitely the way to go. Here are some good articles:

Re: [PHP] Really simple regex

[Jochem Maas]

...


$string="I have  apples!";
$string=preg_replace("/x+/sim","x", $string);
print "$string";


...




Thanks, that did it. I did not know about the +. And what is the 'sim'


its not one thing but 3 things, everything that comes after a
regexp closing marker (but inside the string) is treated as a regexp modifier,
in this case the modifiers are:

modifer - meaning

s   - PCRE_DOTALL
i   - PCRE_CASELESS
m   - PCRE_MULTILINE

read more here: 
http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.modifiers.php


...







Thank you for that link! I have so much to learn (there is so much to learn).


well the guys that wrote the page deserve the credit!, and I know how you feel
about the learning thing - everytime you think you have a reasonable 
understanding
of something, another door opens and you realise you don't know 'jack'! :-)

good luck
