[PHP] Troubleshooting mail() and sendmail
Does anyone have any tips for general troubleshooting of mail()? The standard *nix mail command works fine from the command line, but php scripts that use php's mail() run very slowly -- then the mail ends up not getting send. I assume I have something misconfigured for sendmail but am not sure where to begin looking. I am running php 4.3.1 on RH 8.0. output of phpinfo() follows.

[PHP] Call to undefined function: mysql_connect()
This is driving me buggy... I just upgraded to RH 8 which included an Apache 2.0 update. PHP and MySQL work OK independently; I can call mysql_connect() from the command line, but an attempt to do so from a script within Apache returns a Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() I tried to install php-mysql-4.2.2-8.0.7.i386.rpm but am getting: warning: php-mysql-4.2.2-8.0.7.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e error: Failed dependencies: php = 4.2.2-8.0.7 is needed by php-mysql-4.2.2-8.0.7 libmysqlclient.so.10 is needed by php-mysql-4.2.2-8.0.7 Attempts to install the client RPM return messages that it's already installed.

[PHP] Constants and Here Document Interpolation
Can anyone tell me if it is possible (and how) to use defined constants within here document content? I've not been successful finding anything on this in the online docs. Thanks! Dan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Actually I did try it and couldn't think of a way to work around the matter.

You simply could have tried it - it's trivial.
The answer: no, you cannot have a constant within a string, be it heredoc
or quoted. A constant must always reside on native code level.
However you can easily concatenate strings and heredocs - both of the
examples below work correctly:
define('A_CONSTANT', 1);
$text1 = EOT
This heredoc text contains the constant A_CONSTANT (
EOT
. A_CONSTANT . EOT
) outside the heredoc construct...
EOT;
$text2 = This quoted text contains the constant A_CONSTANT ( .
A_CONSTANT .
) outside the string quotes...;
echo $text1br /$text2;
Output:
This heredoc text contains the constant A_CONSTANT (1) outside the heredoc
construct...
This quoted text contains the constant A_CONSTANT (1) outside the string
quotes...

FW: [PHP] Constant Arrays Possible?
I know constants can't be changed or undefined; the use I have in mind won't be; the array size and elements would be completely static. I'm just looking to do this for the sake of ease of access to its elements and to eliminate the need to redeclare the array as global in every bleeping function that uses its data. -Original Message- From: Ernest E Vogelsinger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 23, 2003 6:56 AM To: Daniel R.

RE: [PHP] Sitewide Header Footer Includes || Trouble with Relative Paths..........
I do the following and it seems to work OK:
I put the following two lines at the top of each script:
$defsPath = [my include path]defs/;
include_once($defsPath.globals.php3);
...and later a call to a function I wrote ( printNavLinks() ) that outputs
whatever I want in the header/footer. The function is defined in another
include file included by globals.php3.

I do this at the top of my scripts
ini_set (include_path,'path/to/inc/dir:'.ini_get(include_path));
that way you just do include('file.inc') from anywhere and it will find
your
files.

As long as your headers/footers are static, you could define them as constants, include just the script that defines the constants, and do a print(SOME_FOOTER_NAME); where you want them to appear. -Original Message- From: CF High [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2003 5:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Sitewide Header Footer Includes || Trouble with Relative Paths.. Hmm Sounds like a good idea, but we've got quite a few includes in our site, not to mention variable image paths (i.e. images/headers, images/groups, etc.) Seems like a lot of work to create maintain this config file + load the references on each page. Maybe I'm just lazy, but I wonder if there is isn't a more direct way to modularize a site? I'll check out your idea in any case as I haven't come up with a better solution myself. Thanks for the feedback, --Noah Sebastian [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] What I did on my site is made a file called config.php, I then made a variable for all the files that need to be included, example, header, footer, leftnav, rightnav, etc..

Then I simply call config.php into all my pages and when I want to include a file I just do: ?php include($header); // html and stuff include($footer); ? my config.php has all my site includes and it allows me to dynamically change anything throughout the site in a matter of seconds. hope this helps.
