Being a fully-fledged member of the pedants' society, I can't let that go without comment. Those dates only hold if you stick to FORTRAN. Algol-68 had if-elif-else-fi, and I don't believe it was a pioneer in the structure even then (although the syntax may have been novel). It also had a case-esac structure. I'd say both elseif and case/switch developed in other languages and were adopted into FORTRAN long after they were established as bona fide programming constructs. In Algol 68 rev0 had the longer conditional clause: * IF ~ THEN ~ ELSF ~ THEN ~ ELSE ~ FI Subsequently - in rev1- this was dropped in favour of: * IF ~ THEN ~ ELIF ~ THEN ~ ELSE ~ FI Or... brief form: ( condition1 | statements |: condition2 | statements | statements ) Pdf - AB36.3.1 FINAL REPORT ON IMPROVEMENTS TO ALGOL 68 c.f. http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1061641 (registration required) C 55 (representations) Some further small changes: elif is now used in place of elsf , (on a bad lineprinter , ELSE was too difficult to distinguish from ELSE) The ALGOL 68 page on wikipedia details the ALGOL 68 conditional clause in German: # Nachfolgetag - Deutsche Variante # menge datum = tupel(ganz tag, wort monat, ganz Jahr); funktion naechster tag nach = (datum x) datum: wenn tag von x monatslaenge(monat von x, jahr von x) dann (tag von x + 1, monat von x, jahr von x) wennaber monat von x = Dezember dann (1, Januar, jahr von x + 1) ansonsten (1, nachfolgemonat(monat von x), jahr von x) endewenn; Note

[PHP] Which PHP 5.3 documentation generators have you found?
Hi all, Anybody know of a documentation generator which plays nicely with PHP 5.3? Thanks, Adam -- Nephtali: PHP web framework that functions beautifully http://nephtaliproject.com
Re: [PHP] Which PHP 5.3 documentation generators have you found?
Does phpDocumenter not do the trick? I must admit, I've not tried anything specific to 5.3 (i can imagine the namespace thing would be a major part if the documentation) but its served me well with other php5 code.

[PHP] converting a mysql date value
Hello, I've got dates stored in a mysql database. The field is of type date so the value is something like: 2010-09-29 I'm wanting to display them as in U.S. dates as in month, day, year. I had a function that did this, now it is not working and I am perplexed as to why. Here's my echo statement: ?php echo sqlDateFormat($row['date']); ? The $row['date'] is coming out of the mysql database. Here's the sqlDateFormat function: function sqlDateFormat($value) { $date = $value; $date = strtotime($date); $date = date('m-d-y', $date); return $date; } I'd appreciate any suggestions as to why this isn't working.

Re: [PHP] converting a mysql date value
http://www.w3schools.com/sql/func_date_format.asp when you do your select, SELECT DATE_FORMAT(`field_name`,'%b %d %Y %h: %i %p') AS 'field_name' which would yield you the field field_name: 'Nov 04 2008 11:45 PM' would be easier to do it there, rather than in your PHP... and you can change the date_format in your query via PHP if you need to change it on the fly... if the dates were in UNIX TIME, you can do it like: SELECT DATE_FORMAT(FROM_UNIXTIME(`field_name_in_unix_timestamp`),'%b %d %Y %h:%i %p'); Steve On Wed, 2010-09-29 at 15:11 -0400, David Mehler wrote: Hello, I've got dates stored in a mysql database.

Re: [PHP] PHP Email Question
Hi I am trying the following snippet as Bostjan suggested, and an email is getting sent when I submit the form however in the body of the email I am getting none of the form data in the body of the email. All I am getting is the letter 'z' ? Also in the from field of the email this is showing as my email address and not the email address of the user who has sent the form Any ideas on where I am going wrong with this snippet? Any advice would be much appreciated $msgContent = Name: . $values['name'] .\n; $msgContent .= Address: . $values['address'] .\n; $msgContent .= Telephone: . $values['telephone'] .\n; $msgContent .= Email Address: . $values['emailaddress'] .\n; $msgContent .= Message: . $values['message'] .\n; function ProcessForm($values) { mail('myemail:domain.com', 'Website Enquiry', $msgContent, From: \{$values['name']}\ {$values['emailaddress']}); // Replace with actual page or redirect :P echo htmlheadtitleThank you!/title/headbodyThank you!/body/html;
[PHP] Open Source Website Flowchart and Wireframe Software?
Hello, This is not strictly a PHP question, though i do think some members that subscribe to this list might be able to answer this question. Is there an open source website flowchart and wireframe software. My google searches are not quite pulling up what I'm looking for. I would like a piece of software that let's me layout the wireframes for various pages of a site. I would like to create a unique number for each page. On each wireframe, next to the links on that page, I would like to reference the destination of that link by the unique number of the page to which it is directed. When I'm all done with the wireframes, I would like the software to create a flowchart for the site. Other than the above, I'm looking for a very simple piece of software. Any ideas?
