Re: [PHP] PHP vs JSP

2001-01-14 Thread Donald Goodwill

There is an interesting ZD Net comparison of several
scripting languages at
http://www.zdnet.com/enterprise/stories/linux/0,12249,2646052,00.html
Some time ago I did the comparison of JSP to PHP and
JSP turned out to be much, much slower.

Now I'm just learning CodeCharge generator and so far
it seems really helpful. I even started redoing one
project from scratch using it. Maybe surprise your
client and create both PHP and JSP versions...

Re: [PHP] CodeCharge? is it any good?

2001-03-29 Thread Donald Goodwill

Re:1 Yes, PHP should be the right tool to use to build
your system. It is likely much more powerful (has more
functions) than any other web related language you can
find.
Re:2 CodeCharge is the best PHP generator (or code
generator in general) I seen, except for its own UI,
which can be confusing. You may want to browse through
their newsgroup or actually ask questions there. The
code is fairly clean and looks standard, if that's
what you're asking about.

Re: [PHP] Best Practice-HTML In Database

2001-04-29 Thread Donald Goodwill

Using an URL to point to an HTML page or file is
better.

Inserting the HTML page in the database would cause:
a) more database requests and thus heavy load on the
database
b) large amount traffic between the database server
and the web server

At my previous company we even ended up removing the
text from the database and placing it as files on the
disk...

Re: [PHP] a bit off the list but....

2001-05-01 Thread Donald Goodwill

SAP, is a company producing a small little program
called R/3 and also known as "Enterprise Software",
which costs several $million to several $billion to
implement. It is used by Microsoft, General Motors and
other monster companies.
I don't know what it is written in, but SAP software
comes with a 4GL programming language called ABAP,
which can be used to create reports and customize some
of its modules.
If you saw an SAP job ad offering $250/hr., that's not
unusual.

Unless there are other SAPs. Search the web.

Re: [PHP] PHP on PWS not working!

2001-05-05 Thread Donald Goodwill

I couldn't find your original message, but here are
some ideas:
1. Rename php.ini-dist to php.ini (if you haven't)
2. Simplify your script
3. Try changing your directory properties in PWS:
Read/Execute/Scripts - try different combinations
