to upload an image for a photo gallery (my own code) I have to have permission 
for the directory images 0777.
but having permission for a directory 0777 is REALLY bad idea, isn't it?
I'm owner of the directory (lamp:lamp images).

what to do to set my code has permission to upload an image into the images 
directory and have permissions on the directory 0755?

I googled for file uploader scripts and classes to se how they handle it but I 
can't see that part. just file/size/type validation and moving uploaded file to 
final destination.

thanks.

A simple way is have your program create the dir, instead of you doing it with 
ftp or a file manager on the sever. Then your scripts will own the dir.

This is fairly simple to do as an http upload. With the folder above  
the web root, it less if an issue since general users can't gain

[PHP] Timestamps and strftime

2009-06-04 Thread John Comerford

Hi,

I am having a problem trying to use a date that I take from a MySQL 
database.  The field is defined as a timestamp in the database.  I 
extract it using PDO and I am trying to use the value with strftime as 
follows:


foreach ($stmt-fetchall(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC) as $row) {
 echo strftime(%j,$row['UpdateDate']);
}

but it returns the following error:

PHP Notice:  A non well formed numeric value encountered...

I understand that this is because strftime is expecting a numeric value 
and that ,$row['UpdateDate'] is a character but I am not sure how to 
resolve the issue.  Any help would be apprecaited.


TIA,
 JC

 Hi Ashley,
 
 Thanks for the feedback.  See my comments below:
 
  Doesn't work in the majority of browsers out there at the
  moment. 
 
 I've tested it in IE7, FF3, Safari3 and Opera9. Which Browsers have you 
 tested it in?
 
  For striped tables, you're still better off
  using server-side code to apply a class to every other row of the
  table. Pure
  CSS solutions are not ready
 
 The zebra example was created using server-side code (Raxan PDI) and can be 
 made to use CSS classes if you so desire:
 
 $page['table tr:even']-addCSS('row-color');
 $page-reply();
 
 The above example will generate html tags that can be rendered in all html 
 browsers.
 
 The Raxan Framework is very flexible enough to allow developers to create 
 just about anything they want. 
 
 I would recommend that you download the framework and give the examples a try 
 to see how easy it is to create both Ajax and Non-Ajax webpages.
 
 If you have any questions feel free to drop me a line or post a comment 
 inside the forum.

I tested in Firefox 2, just showed a plain vanilla table, with no row
colours at all. My guess is, it won't work with IE6 either. These are
the two browsers most common at the moment (as far as my stats go)

Always W3C validate html and CSS .

Use Firefox's Web Developer extension. It's super. It would have shown you the 
problems in minutes, see the forms selections. I also use the HTML Validator 
extension. Leave it active and as you develop and test your resultant html code, 
it'll check your pages on the fly.  When you see the red circle, with a  cross, 
click the circle and get an error report in detail.

 I think the first problem is because both your inputs are defined as 
 title.

   
 Does that change anything in the functionanlity? If so, how?
 Bastien says it works in IE8; here it does not in IE6. :-)

 

 I'm not sure about functionanlity, but it definitely changes the
 functionality. ;-) 

 It means that regardless of whether someone is able to enter a value
 in the field you have labeled accès client, your PHP page will never
 see it because it will look at the value from the field you have
 labeled mot de passe, even if it is left blank. And that is true
 regardless of which browser they are using. In some scripting platform
 other than PHP, or if you process the raw post data yourself it could
 be different, but in PHP the variable $_POST['title'] will only have
 one value in it, and it will be the last one passed by the form. (In
 this case, mot de passe.)

 Andrew
   
Thanks Andrew, I hadn't gotten that far and had not thought about
that... it's a wake-up call for me. Glad to learn that. PJ

 I had posted this earlier... just before finding the blockage for the
 input in PROBLEM 1, though I don't know why some stray divs would
 cause that.


 

 Based on the fact that you said things were off the page and clipped in
 the upper right hand corner, I thought that you had a style that may
 have positioned the div or the form or something.  If you disable all
 styles, whether in the head of the document or via an external
 stylesheet, then that should show the form on the page as it should.
 I think I didn't explain correctly; It does not appear on the page(IE
6) as it should  does in Firefox3.
The form is displayed but off-screen on startup; The page is set for a
width of 1025px but the display is probably about 900px so the form is
just off-screen to the right. But it is clipped in the middle and all
you see is the password and submit fields.
I suspect that the guilty party here is the CSS - I have the top margin
set to -100px in order to position it where I want it. I guess, I have
to find another way to position it. :-(

You need to do something simmaler to reading files stored in a database,

http://www.php-mysql-tutorial.com/wikis/mysql-tutorials/uploading-files-to-mysql-database.aspx

bit instead of reading the data from the DB, read if from the file using
fopen() and fread(). you may need to read the file in chunks to prevent
running out of RAM, depending on how big the spasific file is.

I´m not sure, nut I think you cant put a file into a ftp server using http, 
you must use the $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT] to get the file you want to put.

Since it is passing a full path I don't know how it can be only going to the

Apparently, it's not actually a file in the first place. Just a

 I still have to check and see how opera reacts to that (IE gets html version
 of my pages so it won't get that anyway, I can't test safari)

 html won't validate with that attribute, but that's OK I guess.
 Maybe it will in html 5 (I don't know) but that's not even stable yet.

 I'd prefer it to be at the input level rather than form level, the problem
 (and I think it is a firefox bug) is that it assumes an input before a
 password the same form as a password is a login name.

 I *might* actually be able to just move the password field above the e-mail
 change and fix it.

 But the autocomplete='off' is very useful to me for another form where users
 add GPS coordinates, which are from within shasta county and thus all very
 close, unless the records are for identical coordinates they'll never be the
 same and if they are identical, using the autocomplete feature risks a
 mistake of selecting the wrong one thus resulting in bogus data.



I just thought I'd toss this out there. Do you know that there is an

user a browser configuration option to ignore it)?

against the user's wishes (in this case by preventing the user from

Andrew



I have no problem with browsers giving users an option to disable it.
I have no problem with browsers ignoring anything that is not defined in 
the DTD - though technically the way I did it, that attribute is defined 
in the DTD.


All a bank needs to do is provide a custom DTD and they can have it.
Browsers that refuse to autocomplete don't get certified and thus won't 
work with the bank, many bank web sites are very picky about what a 
browser must to before they'll certify it and allow it at their bank.


Several years ago I was stuck needing to install binary Netscape 7 in 
Linux - same code base as Mozilla 1 - because Mozilla 1 wasn't certified 
at my bank, Netscape 7 was.


Yes, you can fake browser strings and get around it, but only a few 
people will.


Microsoft won't yank autocomplete=off out of their browser, and 
FireFox won't want IE to to be the only browser that works with banks.


Users who really don't want it could probably use a firefox extension 
that ignores the attribute if they really want autocomplete in their 
bank forms.


In my case I want it turned off because FireFox does the wrong thing. It 
should look at the input name attribute before auto-completing, but it 
doesn't - it assumes a password field means the field before it is a 
login field.

[PHP] formatting - design question

2009-06-04 Thread PJ
This may not be strictly php but I think is may be relevant.
Were I to use a different css file for every page (that is slightly
different), would that affect performance?
It seems to me that might be a way of simplifying and certainly speeding
up development (design-wise, anyway) when using css. A different css
file for different pages would certainly make it a breeze to design a
page; otherwise it is hell to try to put all formatting in one file - it
even tends to get fairly bloated and difficult to follow your own shadow.

There is nothing to remove. It is a proprietary extension and not likely
to ever be accepted as part of the W3C standards. As such, it won't be
in any W3C DTD, but will always require a custom DTD be supplied
locally. Each browser supplier must decide whether to support it or
leave it out.

From my viewpoint, the bigger need is to educate administrators of
publicly available computers to disable autocomplete in the browser
configuration. If they would do that, when you go to the workstation in
the library, you can't see the credentials of the last user, and the
next user won't be able to retrieve yours.

I would have one main file that holds common styles and then if you need
one, a page specific style sheet. You can even add all styles to the
first and then override them in the second.  This is how they were
intended to be used.  Also, most times the style sheets will be cached
by the browser so only the first page load should matter.

/* style sheet 1 */
.someclass { color: red; }
/* style sheet 2 */
.someclass { color: blue }

someclass will be blue.

/* style sheet 1 */
.someclass { color: red; }
/* style sheet 2 */
.someclass { color: blue; background-color: yellow; }

/* style sheet 1 */
.someclass { color: red; }

reference:

This way you can use a default format for all the pages and create minor (or

I would also suggest to attach the CSS filename reference at the head tag

I just installed IE 8 just to have it for verification. It's no better

alternate colors to table rows. Here's another solution that's very 
simple and straight forward. For example:


$page['table tr:even']-css('background:#eee');

Check out the full example code at 
http://raxanpdi.com/zebra-striped-table.html



Best regards,

Raymond:

A little late to reply, but your example doesn't work for me.

However, this does:

[PHP] webpage has expired remedies

2009-06-04 Thread Ed Bukhman
Hello,

Could someone suggest the steps needed to troubleshoot the webpage has 
expired issue in IE. I have a self-posting php form which queries and 
writes to a pgsql database. Occasionally, when an input is entered, the form 
never loads and I get this error instead. I do want to make clear that this 
has nothing to do with using the back button on the browser, as most 
instances of this error do. I also cannot reliably reproduce this error on 
IE. Sometimes it occurs several times on a specific input, but the next 
minute the same exact input is processed without any issues. It does seem to 
be associated with especially onerous queries that take the (gis) database a 
while to process, but sometimes even quick queries cause it.
Also, as I mentioned, this only occurs on IE, not on firefox or safari. 
Feels almost as some kind of a timeout that IE responds to, but I don't know 
much about these things and would appreciate any guidance.

Best regards,

--Ed Bukhman

 This way you can use a default format for all the pages and create minor (or
 major) changes in the theme in no time :)

 I would also suggest to attach the CSS filename reference at the head tag
 the update time of the file, so that the browser will automatically update
 the cache of the CSS whenever you decide to edit it.

 Just my 2 cents ;)
 

Oh, I think it's worth a lot more than that.
I just installed IE 8 just to have it for verification. It's no better
than IE 6. I never use them personally.
But how do you produce interesting web pages to look well on both
without making stupid compromises. What looks well on Firefox, looks
like MSshit on IE.


The way you do it is to keep it simple.

If you use a different style sheet for every page, then not only does 
that cause more load times, but it confuses the Hell out of things, 
in my opinion.


Style sheets are meant simplify things so decide on how you want 
things to look uniformly throughout your site and then stick with it. 
There's really no good reason to keep changing things throughout a 
site.

tedd

[PHP] PHP Graphing Libraries...?

2009-06-04 Thread li...@mgreg.com

Hi All,

I'm currently looking for a quality (preferably open source) PHP  
graphing library that will allow me to create various graphs and plot  
points.  I've seen several that do some amazing things, but cost a  
fortune -- others are either limited, lack documentation, or don't  
allow plotting of points for multiple entities within the same graph.


Can anyone make any quality suggestions?

Best,
Michael

Maybe I'm just too complicated. ;-)
I do try to keep it simple. But then, little things creep in, like a
login box on the index page which mucks up all the other pages. Then
there is a recipe page which is totally different, yet to keep is
stylistically continuous it uses a similar layout to the other pages but
different. The same for the main recipe page, and the same for the
portraits of producers - all the pages are different yet remain within a
cohesive style. CSS gets super bloated and almost unamageable. Most
sites are very repetitive; mine tend to be provocative or semthing
like that. I really don't see an ooption. Although, Nitsan's body tags
sound promising. I'll have to try that; maybe the solution is to do a
series of definitions unique just fo certain pages. :-)


That's simply an example of not thinking things out before you write the code.

First you figure out a layout, then you populate it. You don't pick a 
layout, populate it and then change the layout. That leads to a 
lackluster and lack of thought site.


Cheers,

tedd

[PHP] Listening on host:port - Windows

2009-06-04 Thread John Fairley
I'm running my test server on Windows XP SP3 and have been successfully
running PHP 5 for some time using:
 
php-cgi.exe -b 127.0.0.1:1
 
My live server is running on PHP 4.4 and that gives an incompatibility risk
in problem solving.  So I've removed PHP 5 on my test server and have
installed PHP 4.4.9 but I can't find how I set host and port in php.
 
Running php -v has confirmed that this is the cgi-fcgi version.  
 
I'm sure it's simple but I'm being driven nuts.
 
TIA,
 
John

Thanks Gary.  I've actually been looking at both JpGraph (http://www.aditus.nu/jpgraph/ 
)  and XML/SWF Charts (http://www.maani.us/xml_charts/index.php).   
However, JpGraphs is one of those that suffers from horrendous  
documentation, and neither seems to allow X-independent graphing for  
multiple entities on the same graph.  For instance, I can't give one  
entity its own array of  x,y coordinates and provide another entity  
with an entirely different set of x,y coordinates.  I must create a  
new graph for each and every entity.


My current task is an electrical one.  I'm writing an app to plot KWH  
values at specific increments.  However, the increments are unique to  
each particular event.  I can't make my X-axis uniform because not  
every event records data at every second.  And I, of course, can't  
haphazardly insert 0 values to accommodate spacing as that falsifies  
the data.  So I need to be able to plot (KWH, TIME) for multiple  
entities on the same graph.   However, as I said, neither of those  
packages seem to accommodate this in a straightforward manner.


Thoughts?


Thanks,
Michael

Thank you, but this would involve the target (get) page having a bunch of 
stuff in the URL, no? I would like to avoid this if possible, not least 
because it would allow people to go directly to the get page the next time, 
and this would be problematic for my application. Is there a different way 
(that avoids the GET method)?

Re: [PHP] Zebra Striped Table Example

2009-06-04 Thread Raymond Irving

I've just tested it in FireFox 2.0.0.20 and IE6 and it works just fine. 
I can toggle the stipes by clicking on the Toggle Stripes hyperlink. 

See the attached snapshots

PS. I think I'll just update the example to show the zebra stripes by default 
as that might be the reason why it appears to not be working at all.

 gnuplot may be what you want - but it doesn't have php bindings as far
 as I know, so you'll have to call it via a system call.

I use Gnuplot every week to graph the statistics of my business. It's
extremely flexible, and will output not only to graphics formats, but to
PDF format, if I'm not mistaken.

I know for a fact it outputs to postscript, as I've used that with TeX
