[PHP] benchmarking php scripts
Is there a way to benchmark a PHP script to see how intensive it is? For example, execution time, CPU/RAM/disk usage, etc. Thanks in advance. -- Eugene Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How about launching a shell script that reboots the server as its own
process? For example, make a script at /etc/shutdown containing this:
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/reboot
then in your PHP script do something like:
/dev/null/ 2>&1 &');

[PHP] shopping cart suggestions
Apologies if this is an oft-repeated question, but could anyone recommend a PHP/MySQL shopping cart (free or commercial) that works pretty well, decently customizable, and doesn't depend on additions beyond the standard PHP distribution (e.g. PHPlib). The PHP Knowledge Base <http://php.faqts.com/> lists only 2: FishCart <http://www.fishcart.org/> FreeTrade <http://www.working-dogs.com/freetrade/> (dead link) freshmeat <http://freshmeat.net/> lists 16 (looks like FreeTrade moved here). HotScripts.com <http://hotscripts.com/> lists 48, but not all of the scripts are rated. Any suggestions or comments are welcome.

Re: [PHP] Re: variables
Also, it's good to read the press releases: http://www.php.net/release_4_2_1.php External variables We would also like to attend you on a big change in PHP 4.2.0 concerning variable handling. External variables (from the environment, the HTTP request, cookies or the web server) are no longer registered in the global scope by default. The preferred method of accessing these external variables is by using the new Superglobal arrays, introduced in PHP 4.1.0. http://www.php.net/release_4_1_0.php On Wed, May 22, 2002 at 11:52:02AM +0200, Michael Virnstein wrote: : : you can use : : $_POST['name1'] if you're using post vars : $_GET['name1'] if you're using get vars : : "Roman Duriancik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb: : > : > When are set in php.ini (php version 4.2.1 on linux) register_globals = Off : > how I read variables from html files with forms in other php file ? -- Eugene Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

AFAIK, Perl doesn't support named parameters (it's listed for Perl 6).
Since C does not support this, almost all C-like languages also do not
support this. The only exception I know of is Objective-C, which is the
base language for Apple's new Unix-based Mac OS X.
As for PHP supporting named parameters, it seems silly to preserve C's
use of parentheses. Why not do something more radical like Objective-C
that draws from Smalltalk syntax:
$bar = [foo par2:10]
