My guess is this is an outsource deal Google did because they don't

Re: [PHP] continue after break

2003-01-22 Thread Dan Lowe
You are misunderstanding how break and continue work.  When you call 
break, the loop ends.  When you call continue, the loop starts over, 
skipping the part between continue and the end of the loop.

When you call break, you're ending the loop.  You never even get as far 
as continue (let alone as far as the second  block).

break ends a loop.  That's what it does.  If you don't want to end a 
loop, don't call break.

Take a look at your code; it boils down to this:

while (...) {
   break;
   continue;
}

Generally speaking you would break or continue based on some condition. 
 Your usage as shown below doesn't make any sense to me.  Perhaps you 
need to re-read the documentation on while, break and continue.

It just uses the system call unlink() which is what rm does.  That means
the link is removed.  If that's the only link to that file (inode), the
file goes away.  If there are multiple links, then only the link is removed
and the file (inode) remains with the one or more other links.  This is
exactly what rm does, though.

Any file can contain such code, if the server is configured to interpret

file in question.  The ".inc" extension just happens to be a popular choice
that a lot of people tend to use for "included" PHP code.  But typically as
far as the server cares they're just text files.

This should do what you want; just stick it at the end of the code
you already had in this email.

for ($i = 0; $i < $info['count']; $i++) {

Expands to whatever the parentheses surrounded during the match.  So
in this case you have:

Match pattern:  ""
Replace pattern:""

There are two places in the match pattern where there are ().  These are
memorized (rather whatever they actually matched was memorized) and then
you can spit it back out in the replacement pattern using \\1, \\2, etc.

It's not any more or less "safe" than using the $HTTP_POST_VARS or
$HTTP_GET_VARS arrays instead, but it could be less typing :-)

Note that for the arrays mentioned here to work, track_vars must be on.  In
recent versions of PHP (4.0.1 and later, I think?) that is always the case.

You don't need to escape * or + inside a character class since they don't
have a special meaning inside a character class.

You will need to use '' to match a backslash, however.  And if you move
the hypen to the last position in the character class, it loses its magic
property as a range specifier and no longer needs to be quoted either.

This should do what you want:

$string = preg_replace("/[;*+-]/s", "", $string);

make is usually in /usr/ccs/bin/

However, you probably have no compiler (unless you bought one from Sun).
Try typing "cc" - if you get the "software package not installed" error,
download GCC from www.sunfreeware.com to get a compiler.

That has nothing to do with make itself; that's still in /usr/ccs/bin/.
You can get GNU make if you want, also at www.sunfreeware.com, but Sun's
make will work for most things.

You might want to add /usr/ccs/bin to your $PATH somewhere because ld is
also sitting in there and you'll need that at some point too.

As others have mentioned, PuTTY is the way to go.  You can use key files
with it, or passwords (or both, using phrase-coded keys).  You can also use
pscp, an scp clone for Windows (although it doesn't use keys AFAIK).

For file transfer needs, check out WinSCP:  http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/
It's quite nice for copying files, and uses the familiar two-pane file
manager format that many FTP clients such as WS_FTP use.  Users of Windows
Explorer will be able to pick it up easily.  It's freeware, and quite
nicely done.  However, I don't think it supports the use of keyfiles for
authentication.

Return-Path can't be reliably set on the source system; it is commonly set
by the destination system using the value from MAIL FROM obtained during
the SMTP transaction.

You may be better off not using mail() and instead exec'ing a copy of
sendmail (or equivalent) with the "-f" flag (or equivalent).  Such as:

  sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You can do this in a few different ways, but it's not any different than
opening any other process and piping data to it.

You probably forgot to close a table with the  tag.  IE bends the
rules a bit and allows that to be omitted, Netscape doesn't, and an
unclosed table in Netscape is invisible.

Re: [PHP] checking if e-mail address and syntax are valid

2001-04-25 Thread Dan Lowe

Problem with this is that many people use '+' in email addresses along with
other strange characters (a friend of mine has an apostrophe in her address
at General Electric).

Bottom line, trying to catch all valid email addresses using a regex is a
really ugly thing to try to do.  The one shown here will probably work for
95% or more of them though.

As an aside, underscores in domain names are illegal (more correctly,
underscores in MX-related DNS records are illegal).  As such, you don't
need to have underscore to the right of the @ sign in this regex.

No, if you want to fetch that then do this:

$my_directory = dirname($PHP_SELF);

If you don't have register_globals on then you might have to do this
instead:

$my_directory= dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF']);

Should end up with "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/cha" in $my_directory (in this
particular case).

$DOCUMENT_ROOT is whatever your httpd.conf file says DocumentRoot is.
Even if you don't use virtualhosts, there should be a DocumentRoot in one
of your Apache config files.  I believe Apache will complain loudly on
startup if that parameter is missing.

Re: [PHP] link variables space problem in netscape

2001-04-24 Thread Dan Lowe

urlencode() will turn a space into "+".  If you want the real full codes
like "%20" you need to use rawurlencode() instead.

// List of variable names
$var_list = array ( 'var1', 'var2', 'var3', 'var4' );

while (list($key,$val) = each($var_list)) {
if ($$val == '') {
$url .= "&".$val."=";
$error = 1;
} else {
$url .= "&".$val."=". urlencode(stripslashes($$val)) ."";
}
}

Of course, if this is all POST variables then you should be able to just
use the pre-built array $HTTP_POST_VARS (if track_vars is on).  Then you'd
do something like this instead:

while (list($key,$val) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
if ($val == '') { 
$url .= "&".$key."=";
$error = 1;
} else {
$url .= "&".$key."=".urlencode(stripslashes($val))."";
}   
}

If you're using GET rather than post, just subtitute $HTTP_GET_VARS.

Re: [PHP] cgi vs. module

2001-04-17 Thread Dan Lowe

Previously, Franklin Hays said:
> 
> RE: PHP as a CGI or Module

Generally people will almost always use the module because it's faster and
simpler, and gives you some IPC kind of advantages that the CGI doesn't
have ("internal" cross-talk with Apache).

Reasons to use the CGI:

1. Windows servers must use CGI form

2. If you want to use command-line PHP scripts you need the CGI form

3. If you want suExec support I believe you need to use the CGI form
