[PHP] I am lost
Previously I had PHP on my older computer using IIS 5.1 it worked fine. But I'm on my new computer using IIS 7 and features like include or completely normal scripts that use to work no longer work. I have try to see if it's the web server and some of the times for the exception of the include function it is. How would I fix my main server IIS 7, is the new PHP 5.2 fully compatible with it? If not when will a fully functional PHP be available for work with IIS 7. In my php.ini file I began by using the recommended file and slightly modifying it enabling gd2, openssl and mysql.

Re: [PHP] preg_replace() help
What am I doing wrong?
Using regular expressions when you don't need to:
$txt = str_replace(' ', ' ', substr($txt, strpos($txt, --)));
Might be a few typos in there. And I may have mixed up the args.

[PHP] Re: Multiple Session Buffers
You guys confirmed my understanding, it can't be done in a reasonable manner. I'm adding a simple CAPTCHA to an existing page and don't want to bother tracing the code that modifies the session buffer. It's obvious that the code is resetting the buffer, so it messes up my saving of the security number. Obviously, I don't want it exposed with GET or shown in the HTML source. I'll just make my own simple session-like buffer with a tmpfile() outside the webspace. Al wrote: Is there a way to instigate 2 separate named session buffers?

[PHP] Re: Multiple Session Buffers
The only way to do that is for each session to use a different session name other than the default PHPSESSID as a session_id is tied to a particular session_name, but then you would have to include a method of propagating this new session name between pages in the same session, either through the URL or a hidden field in each HTML form.

I'm, not entirely sure, but I think foreach may grab a copy of the keys before iteration. I've never worried about that in foreach although I can remember issues back in the old days with the reset(), next(), end() set of array traversal functions :) If you're at all worried anyways, you can always do: Cheers, Rob. -- ...

When in Rome do as the Romans. PHP has a very distinct definition for an
array and for a string. If you think you're using C then maybe you
should go read the documentation. Assumptions based on previous
experience only go as far as they are right. Since you explicitly cast
to an array and not to a string, it can only be expected that you have
an array -- or an exception as you previously offered. But we know you
get an array because it's documented.
:)

Rob.

Re: [PHP] Re: Announcing Xaja, a PHP Reverse Ajax framework
Indeed, Xaja relies on the keeping of an open connexion between the server and the browser. In fact, it uses, the Comet approach (which is a pain to implement in Javascript because the IE code and the Firefox code are completely different). (more information here: http://www.thecodingmachine.com/cmsDoc/xaja/trunk/architecture.html) The whole idea behind Xaja is to built a complete framework on top of the Comet-like javascript library that will enable the developer to write as few Javascript as possible. So, indeed, through the "XajaController" object, we are implementing a "data driven programming" library on top of the classical request/response HTTP protocol. Regarding performances: Indeed, since a connexion is kept open for each browser, this consumes a few connexions on the server (that's not a big problem). Each process also takes some memory. Xaja is still in an early stage of development and I haven't had the opportunity to run a full performance test, but basically, right now, I can tell that a simple applications takes 5 Mo of RAM per client. Which means that for 100 concurrent users, you need 500 Mo of RAM on your server. Now, the vast majority of the servers have less than 100 concurrent users, and at this early point in the development cycle of Xaja, I wouldn't recommend installing Xaja on a server that has more than 100 concurrent users! ;) Regards, David.
