Re: [PHP] Creating new site
I have investigated some frameworks.. Zend and Codeiginiter but I haven't done any testing/exercises. They seem to make things much more simple/faster yes...but I'm not sure how much time it will take to get know one of them(or CakePHP). And I haven't got into reading licences...I'm sure they have got licences that restricts something(or not ?) To be honest, I kinda hate all kind of licences. There are many pages info what I can and what I can't do...but I mostly like to do what I have and want to do. Also, inventing the wheel once, might give good experience or am I going slippery way ? Shawn McKenzie wrote: Micah Gersten wrote: Depending on the size of the site, you might want to consider a PHP framework to start with. There's usually no point in reinventing the wheel.

Thank you, Micah Gersten onShore Networks Internal Developer http://www.onshore.com I too like CakePHP. I have coded in PHP for quite a while and understand OOP and OOP in PHP, however I don't really have any experience building sites or apps from scratch using OOP/MVC. Cake or a framework makes it much quicker and easier. For those that need total freedom to do things the way they want but need some pre-built functionality to make it quicker, Zend seems to be the choice. I consider Zend to be more of a class library like PEAR only more consistant. For me, I had no habits/best practices or preferred way when I started with OOP/MVC so Cake was great. It has a certain structure and uses certain conventions and code generation which makes it very quick and easy. The main drawback is the docs. -Shawn Raido wrote: Hi, There are many sites explaining how to build new site etc but I'd like to hear what You suggest. (about how to plan whole thing and how to write separate parts which can be put together later) I have build many small sites for myself(site to organise class assembly which is like yearly convention..it has user administration etc) but they all are anything else than OOP. But now, I need to help with creating one bigger site which should be OOP. That site should include user management(each user has it's own profile), each user can post job and other adds in different categories. (there will be many categories for example 'work,cars,training,apartments'.) And users profile should show ads posted by himself. Logic itself is simple: 1) unregistered user: a) I go to site, I see categories (work offers, apartment offers, training offers, etc) b) I click on category I'm interested in c) I see ad that I'm interested in d) I click on it c) I see detailed information about it(which company posted it etc) d) at bottom page I see form where I can contact with ad author 2) registered user a) I go to site b) I log in, my profile page opens c) there I can see ads posted by me..also I can see how many times ad is viewed etc d) i click on link 'Post new ad' e) there i choose category and probably Ajax helps to load specific fields(for example if I choose 'Cars' as category, then fields like 'year,transmission,color, etc' will appear. That is short summary what that site should do. It seems quite big for me so I'd be happy to hear any guidelines from people who have built big sites. Creating forms, posting data, user login etc, these things are not problem... problem is: how to build the whole thing aimed to OOP and use with Smarty to keep things organized. I'm not sure but I have idea about what things I should do first: 1) think and write down any function that needs to be done(for example different validations, functions for showing/posting form etc) 2) plan and create database? 3) create database class which handles database connection But what next? Or am I starting all wrong? Big thanks in advance, Raido -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

What I love about CodeIgniter is that, while some frameworks obfuscate my thinking, CodeIgniter clarifies my thoughts, structure and overall architecture. MVC programming is no longer some mysterious theoretical entity - it just makes sense with CodeIgniter. Plus it doesn't tell you how to do something - it just gives you the structure for you to decide and do whatever you want. And it's so light I'd barely call it a framework - more like a kick-start. I could wax lyrical about this all day. Maybe I should write an ode... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Yes this can be correct. Since the above action is set to blank, the
form will submit to the same page as that on which is is presented. As
such, if any GET parameters were set in the URL, they will be
re-presented upon submission along with any POSTed data.

[PHP] Using $_GET for POST
In handling an HTTP POST request I came across some PHP code, which I
need to modify for my own purposes, which has code like this:
if ( ! (isset($_GET['x']) && $_GET['x'] == 20) )
{
// Do something by returning an error
}
Can this ever be correct when the form looks like:
?
Is the $_GET possibly being used to check for an 'x' parameter being
passed in the query part of the URL ?

Definitely. I've been the server-admin behind this sort of stuff (actually php3 -> php4 :P) and it's very hard to do even on your own servers. Clients get other developers to write their software so you have no idea what it does etc, you can't support it, you certainly don't want to break it - so as much as possible you leave the server alone (of course you upgrade for security issues, that's a given). In time you get a new server and slowly migrate people to that, kill off the old server and rinse-repeat. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hello,
I'm using some php-classes which worked fine with php-5.0.4. Now I tried
to upgrade to php-5.2.6, but the classes give a lot of errors. If I set

I see messages like
Notice: Undefined property: FastTemplate::$main in

Notice: Undefined property: current_session::$cust_id in
/whereever/inc.init.php on line 117
In inc.template.php there are a lot of calls like $this->$key. In
inc.init.php there are calls like $session->cust_id.
to fix these errors, you would need to modify the code so it does something
like this.
where it calls $this->$key you need to check and make sure that $key exists
before you trying call for it.
So something like this would work.
if ( isset( $this->$key ) ) {
$this->$key;
} else {
$this->$key = null;
}
You didn't show any context in which you are using the above code. So I don't
know what will actually work in your situation. Show a little more code that
includes the method in which $this->$key is called.
You will want to look at using the Overloading feature of PHP5. Check out
this page for overloading examples
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.overloading.php
Take note of the __get() and __set() methods. The __get method checks to see
if the key exists before it tries working with it.
What has changed in php-5.2.x so that these calls don't work any more?
What is the new, required form to use objects in a similar manner
(unfortunately I have no ressources to code these classes from scratch)?
Thanks.

[PHP] Still "zend_mm_heap corrupted" error in PHP 5.2.6
Dear Srs,
We are having some "zend_mm_heap corrupted" errors followed by a
"Segmentation fault (11)" in our Apache2 + PHP 5.2.6 servers. There are few
information about this "bug" in internet:
* #40479 -> http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=40479
* #43295 -> http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43295
I have applied all proposed patches, tested with PHP 5.2.5 and 5.2.6.. and
I still have the error :-/
Anyone has more info about this, or how to solve/prevent?
I'm also looking for a method to get more info about this crash: what
virtualhost + PHP scripts generate it and the timestamp, for example. What
can I do to get more info? Searching in the source code, I see that this
message only is printed by the zend_mm_panic() function in
"Zend/zend_alloc.c" file, anyideas to hack this function to get more info?
static void zend_mm_panic(const char *message)
{
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", message);
#if ZEND_DEBUG && defined(HAVE_KILL) && defined(HAVE_GETPID)
kill(getpid(), SIGSEGV);
#endif
exit(1);
}
Is there any macro o similar to get the URL, virtualhost or PHP
script/path? Thanks!!
Regards,
--Santi Saez

I suppose to be complete, I should point out that in Linux a call to date finishes in 1.2271404266357E-5 seconds on average. For those unfamiliar with scientific notation, that would be: 0.12271404266357 seconds, or rougly 1/10,000th of the time Doze takes. -- Some people ask for gifts here.

Re: [PHP] Why PHP4?
Sometimes deprecation is necessary is a language feature is created out of necessity but is superseded by a superior language form. A great example is the HTML FONT tag. Font tags slow down downloads and renderings, and were deprecated in favor of CSS style sheets which offer much more control and a smaller footprint.

Per Jessen wrote: Lester Caine wrote: Some ISP's are still only supporting rather ancient versions of PHP4. They should simply be warned of the security risks. Some ISP's have a PHP5 offering, but again an older version simply because it causes less problems when converting from PHP4. The problem for an ISP is - with thousands of customers, he has no way of knowing who has used what PHP extension or feature. Without virtually guaranteed backwards compatibility, a mass upgrade of 4 to 5 could be a major headache. Besides, are the security risks sufficiently severe for the ISP to warrant the upgrade effort+headache? Having seen the problems some of the 'upgrades' have caused I can only agree. But getting a stable version of PHP5 out on to which existing PHP4 users can be migrated is probably essential. And feature freezing that base is a must, so that at least there is a fixed target. I've managed to sort of jump through single versions of 5.0.x - 5.1.6 and now 5.2.6 although the latter was more due to regressive bugs in most of the versions from 5.1.6 to 5.2.6. At present I can't see any logic reason to even bother with 5.3 until all of my customer sites have been moved to 5.2.6 which will probably take another year. so anything that helps people at least start migrating TO PHP5 should be encouraged? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi, Even if it's just a site don't thing u don't need a structure to it. Why not a MVC structure? U can dig about cakephp on google to see some of it working.

It may seem a little disorganized, but I don't believe I can come up with all the functions and all the variables for those functions before I start writing it and I see how things are heading. Some stuff yes, like if you're going to connect to a database, that can be done ahead. But if you are searching, how will you search when you don't know what all the possible fields are that you want to search by? As far as the list you have, use it as a road map but don't be afraid to take detours on it. Nothing on the internet is set in stone :) Add, Remove, Modify... And always push your understanding into new heights because that is what will make you an excellent Web Developer instead of a decent web programmer...

The problem for an ISP is - with thousands of customers, he has no way of knowing who has used what PHP extension or feature. Without virtually guaranteed backwards compatibility, a mass upgrade of 4 to 5 could be a major headache. Besides, are the security risks sufficiently severe for the ISP to warrant the upgrade effort+headache? /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Yes, but a change in the language or a library should not force anyone to make source code changes. IMHO, that is to be avoided at all costs.

Writing code with every eventuality in mind is simply ludicrous. Umm, I beg to differ. A developer should not need to worry about a possible/future upgrade of the runtime platform. I certainly don't worry about the next release of gcc or glibc when I write C. I can live with both sides of the argument. All the SQL scripts I write SHOULD still work with a later version of the database engine, but changes to make things compatible with standards can cause problems with that. So I need to test scripts following a major release. PHP upgrades have certainly broken backwards compatibility, but then I've had similar problems with the Borland C compilers as well. But at least Borland attempt to update things to at least compile in later versions and warn of the 'errors' gcc has had problems and I see various posts about 'not using version xxx' for building yyy because it's broken. So we all have to live with the possibility that a later version may not ACTUALLY work for us - and wait for the problem to be fixed either in gcc or the application. ( Wasn't there a problem with PHP5 and some version of gcc? ) I don't agree with a lot of the 'changes' that are being forced into PHP5 and certainly feel that they should have been kept to PHP6, but the real problem to date has been BACKPORTING some of these changes TO PHP4 rather than having frozen any 'development' of PHP4 a lot earlier. I never used PHP4 and I would prefer not to have to worry about it now, but projects I am using still maintain backwards compatibility rather than also freezing a version that works with PHP4.X and then moving developments forward. Currently I'm looking at a lot of 'deprecated' messages from PHP5.3.x and wondering "Do I fix them and risk problems with PHP4 compatibility or do I just switch off the error?" Some ISP's are still only supporting rather ancient versions of PHP4. They should simply be warned of the security risks. Some ISP's have a PHP5 offering, but again an older version simply because it causes less problems when converting from PHP4. PHP5.3 is going to throw up another round of problems which makes a move from PHP4 even more time consuming so there should be a serious discussion as to *IF* that should be allowed? Keeping moving the goal posts even further from an environment into which PHP4 applications can be ported easily is the problem, rather than the switch from PHP4 to PHP5 pre say :( Lets request that PHP5.3 is not released at this time, but instead an effort is put in to get all the major web applications at least running in PHP5.2 before even more changes are introduced.

[PHP] Creating new site
Hi, There are many sites explaining how to build new site etc but I'd like to hear what You suggest. (about how to plan whole thing and how to write separate parts which can be put together later) I have build many small sites for myself(site to organise class assembly which is like yearly convention..it has user administration etc) but they all are anything else than OOP. But now, I need to help with creating one bigger site which should be OOP. That site should include user management(each user has it's own profile), each user can post job and other adds in different categories. (there will be many categories for example 'work,cars,training,apartments'.) And users profile should show ads posted by himself. Logic itself is simple: 1) unregistered user: a) I go to site, I see categories (work offers, apartment offers, training offers, etc) b) I click on category I'm interested in c) I see ad that I'm interested in d) I click on it c) I see detailed information about it(which company posted it etc) d) at bottom page I see form where I can contact with ad author 2) registered user a) I go to site b) I log in, my profile page opens c) there I can see ads posted by me..also I can see how many times ad is viewed etc d) i click on link 'Post new ad' e) there i choose category and probably Ajax helps to load specific fields(for example if I choose 'Cars' as category, then fields like 'year,transmission,color, etc' will appear. That is short summary what that site should do. It seems quite big for me so I'd be happy to hear any guidelines from people who have built big sites. Creating forms, posting data, user login etc, these things are not problem... problem is: how to build the whole thing aimed to OOP and use with Smarty to keep things organized. I'm not sure but I have idea about what things I should do first: 1) think and write down any function that needs to be done(for example different validations, functions for showing/posting form etc) 2) plan and create database? 3) create database class which handles database connection But what next?

Re: [PHP] Why PHP4?
Brainfuck rox! LOL :) Sure you must see the changelog and other things but take a look: I can do more and better things with the next generation of the language in which i wrote my app, but i don't think that it's fair that my app doens't compile (if it was a compiled language) or stops executing just because i get an upgrade.

Re: [PHP] Why PHP4?
Quoting Hélio Rocha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Sorry to disagree, But I think that with PHP4 a lot of people start thinking that they could be programmers (maybe they can, developers it's another story). When php5 came they didn't know how do deal with the deprecated methods and worst, some hosters didn't know how to virtualize a f1ck1n' server with Apache+PHP5. A lot of mistakes were made when php5 came out but how can a language grow up when they DEPRECATE the syntax? we're not talking about removing the last ';'... O come on. All people have had enough time to get used to it. Between the time PHP5 first came out and when it started to gain attention mainstream wise. Is a gap of 5 years. I think 5 years is enough to get used to new / deprecated features. I still think PHP is moving the right way. When i do an upgrade i first check change logs. You can always expect things to change. It's a dynamic world we live in :) Maybe I'm in a "GET LOST PHP" phase but I think that someone is killing it, and the ones who are stuck in 4 are not helping.

There are many other cases but I feel strongly this is what makes them still support PHP 4. Thanks Personally i use PHP5 when ever i can. But at work we are stuck with some small legacy applications . And some major applications written on top of PHP4. For which is no time to do the research let alone the time to rebuild them. I think there are a few reasons why people still use PHP4. 1. People learned PHP4 as a hobby. So upgrading knowledge goes much slower. Then when you have to stay on top work wise. (which will create a chicken egg situation with point 2) 2. Hosting providers have no clue how to configure their environment. Or are stuck with customers running PHP4 applications. 3.
