I have discovered that if you use the following header command, the

header("Cache-Control: public");
The back button takes you back to the form, without a warning message,
and the form redisplays with the info you entered. Does anyone know a
reason that the above header should not be used? Does it cause some
sort of problem that I should be aware of?
Yes. It allows cache proxies to cache the page. That means e.g. if Joe X
(using ISP Y) fetches that page, *all* users of ISP Y will get the same
page afterwards (including all his private data).
Well, in practice proxies won't cache results of POST queries, but it's

$WeirdDArray = array ('1dim' = 'Hello man',
'2dim' = array ('Hello', 'man')
'1d2' = 42);

str_replace doesn't know about regular expressions, so it tries to find
the literal string "flag=[0-9]{9}PHPSESSID=[[:alnum:]]{32}" in your URL
- which it doesn't find.
Use eregi_replace instead

Well, I *can* understand that printf () isn't prepared to handle numbers

2.2864849511949E+190
How can I transfer this to normal-human-readable number?
Well, I doubt that
228648495119489900
is more human-readable than
2.2864849511949E+190
Perhaps you want to change it to
2.2864849511949 * 10^190
But I'd say adding a note explaining the "E" notation is simpler...
PS: The long number is, scientifically seen, also *less* correct than the
'E' form - the 'E' form states that it is a number with a precision of 16
digits, while the long one implies that it has a precision of 190 digits
(which is definitely wrong).

Re: [PHP] Qoute problem
On Wednesday 14 February 2001 17:56, Tanya Brethour wrote:
Hi! I was hoping that someone could help me out. I am not positive if I
understand whats going on.. so let me try to explain.
This is a process to modify news articles in a MySQL database.
(From the point after picking the article to modify)
PHP Script #1:
I grab everything from the database and stick it into the HTML form
(textarea, text, etc). I allow the user to modify whatever they want.
(1) Be sure to run the data through htmlentities() before inserting it
into the textarea. Otherwise stuff like "" signs, ampersands ("") etc
will get munched.
PHP Script #2:
This script takes the new information and displays it to the user.. it
is a preview of what it will look like with the changes.
Do a
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
$TextFromForm = stripslashes ($TextFromForm);
}
That will un-escape the quotes ('some \"text\"' - 'some "text"'), i.e.
give you the text as it should be.
PHP Script #3:
Updates the news article in the database.
Now the problem I am having.. is that the description and content
fields have qoutes in them. For example:
Description: I like to run and walk. I love "smelly cheese."
So.. when it tries to update the database. It will only store this as
the description:
I like to run and walk. I love\\
$Query = "UPDATE foo SET field1 = '" . addslashes ($TextFromForm) . "'
WHERE ...";
The addslashes () here properly escapes the quotes in your string, so
that the SQL parser can interpret it correctly.

Let me guess - You're printing this in some string enclosed with double

Then you need to escape the "\" before the "t" - "\t" is a TAB character,
and chances are good that the browser won't like that in a filename.

You need to assign the output of this function to a string:
$new_line = str_replace($oldemail, $newemail, $line);
Another little thing: You don't need the eregi() here - just do
str_replace. If it doesn't find $oldemail it won't do anything.

Just as any other variable. Read on...

echo "$key = $valbr";

process_members($asker_rank, $total_members, $email);
Look at the definition of process_members() again. The function takes two
values. The first is called $asker_rank and the second $email.
Now you pass *three* values to it. #1, $asker_rank, is fine. But #2,
$total_members, is passed in place of $email, so every time the function
body accedded its "$email" parameter, it gets the value of $total_members
- which is not an array.
The third parameter is ignored.

On what?
It depends on the charset you use.
No. the return value of ord('\t') may differ depending on the charset,
but '\t' itself always is a tab character :)

Re: [PHP] Future plans (4.1) ?
On Friday 02 February 2001 14:47, Rasmus Lerdorf wrote: So If possible I'd like to hear from the developers if they have a TODO that includes such things for a 4.X release? As for better OO. I think many of the things people ask for, like visibility (public,private,protected) class properties, aren't actually features that add functionality, but more just convenience features that could be implemented in user space. I disagree. Just as with strong typing (which I hope will be added to PHP5 (optional - see how it's planned for Perl6)), language-enforced OO visibility makes it possible that the *compiler* (interpreter) immediately catches a bug that could hide for ages otherwise. Errare humanum est - conventions can't prevent mistakes. For example, you could establish a convention that said that any class property that starts with an _underscore should be considered a private property, and one would hope that your UML tool could be configured to understand that. -- Christian Reiniger LGDC Webmaster (http://sunsite.dk/lgdc/) Google results 1-10 of about 142,000,000 for e.

Re: [PHP] Can you do this
On Wednesday 31 January 2001 16:03, Boget, Chris wrote:
Now, say I have a function where one of the arguments
is passed by reference and is modified within the function.
I can call this function on one line
myFunc( $modifiedVariable );
and print out the value (if any) of $modifiedVariable on
the next
echo $modifiedVariable.
So what I am wondering is if you can turn those two
statements into one? The function is going to get evaluated
first we already know, but I am not certain how I could
get the (new) value of $modifiedVariable.
What about using normal pass-by-value and returning the result?
function MyFunc ($SomeVal)
{
$SomeVal += 42;
return $SomeVal;
}
echo MyFunc ($StrangeVal);
Anyway - functions that get their parameters by reference and modify them
can cause much trouble, so better be careful with that.

Basically you create "virtual directories", e.g. a PHP script named
"Yarns" which simply include()s your one "real" script.

Perhaps. In an earlier version of PHP I had a problem where the above
code (fopen...) read *more* than the page length. I.e. the page was e.g.
20k big and the fread appended ~5k of junk to it.
