That's usually considered a fairly serious problem.
I'm probably missing something blatently obvious but I'll post it and

I've had a fairly brief look through, and would recommend the following:
Add error checking routines
Don't do this:$fp = fopen($file, $mode);
Do this instead: $fp = fopen($file, $mode) or die(can't open file
$file with mode $mode);
You might also want to have a look at www.php.net/asssert
Recheck your strings/arrays, and your uses of them:
function assign($var,$value) {
if (isset($var) isset($value)) {
$this-_var[] = $var;
$this-_value[] = $value;
// $this-_var, and $this-_value are arrays
$this-_file = str_replace('{' .
$this-_var . '}',$this-_value,$this-_file);
Here you're trying to concatenate a string ('{') with an array ($this-_var)
Probably the easiest solution would be to do a $this-_var[] = '{' .
$var . '}'; in the assign() function.
For Clarity sake, instead of using fopen/fread/fwrite/filesize/etc,
I'd replace them with file_get_contents(), and if available
file_put_contents()

Re: [PHP] Re: A couple questions about templating
Okay well I see I have reopened the can of worms lol.
This has all been done before, and I'm assuming that the James knows,
and has seen that before, since he used the same common method names,
as is in many php templating systems. $class-assign has been used in
any templating system I've ever seen(although to be honest I haven't
seen that many).
I don't think the fact that it has been done before should inhibit him
from doing it again. Carrying out the process, is one of the most
educational ways, and perhaps one of the most enlightening ways to see
how a process works.

[PHP] A couple questions about templating
Hey fellas, sorry to infest the list with another question about a
templating engine, but I am looking for some professional opinions
here...
I am trying to make a small, fast, and simple templating class... Now
I have mastered the art of variable replacement, and have made two
versions. The first one I made simply used file() to load up the file
into an array, str_replace() to replace variables, then it printed it
back. I made a second one, which reads the file into an array,
changes the variables the same way, but instead compiles the finished
product into a compile directory and then reads the compiled file back
to the page. the benefit to this being that I can easily create a
simple cache system now.
1st question) I need a professionaly opinion on to which solution is
better, considering speed, security, and expandability.
2nd question) Like I said before, I've mastered the art of variable
replacement, but how would one go about adding support for if {}
statements as well as loops. I'm a little bit lost when it comes to
this.
Thank-you guys very very much.

All I'd change here, is that instead of reading the file into an
array, I'd load it into a string.
That was a mistake on my part, it is loaded into a string.

You could use a full featured tokeniser/parser(and you'd probably IIRC
find one in Pear), but it may perhaps be simpler, to simply use preg
to replace something like {foreach:var:list}, or whatever your
perfered syntax.
The problem is that, I have no problem replacing the keyword with the
proper php syntax for a loop or whatever, the problem is that it just
shows up as a string when all is said and done.
If you want to see the code I have right now, here it is (below). I'm
thinking I'm going to have to combine the load() and run() methods,
and then make assign() create an array of stuff that must be assigned,
then do pretty much all the work in the combined method or load() and
run(). That probably sounded pretty confusing, I hope you understand
what I'm sayin.

Re: [PHP] Fastest templating mechanism
Hi everyone,
Thanks for your replies. I Think I haven't been very clear about what I
really need. First of all, I don't need an existing templating system,
because I am working on my own templating system.
And regarding Satyam's post. This looks a lot like what I'm developing
right now, but also not my issue =)
What I really need is a fast lookup mechanism, to 'translate' statements.
For example:
setOutputType('xhtml');
echo(translate('authorstart'));
the function translate opens xhtml.data, which contains:
authorstart : span class=author
authorend : /span
So, is you're entire website template going to just look like those
keywords??? If you ask me that seems kinda pointless and if anything,
just extra overhead for your app
so, the translate function looks 'authorstart' up and returns 'span
class=author'
or if you had specified 'wml' as the outputtype, the file could like like:
authorstart : b
authorend : /b
and the function would return 'b'
This is all no problem, except that these lists can be pretty big. And I
wouldn't like to load them all into the memory, or have to loop through
the file every time translate is called.
So I need a very fast mechanism to overcome this problem.
If you're deadset on doing this, I would go with a database and
str_replace(). str_replace() is always better than a regex solution
because it doesn't incur the overhead of the regex engine. Only use
regex when you need a complex solution.
Any ideas?
grt,
Evert

in your case, you'd have to have some sort of declaration in your code
that sets apart code blocks you want replaced, invent some sort of
system of replacing that code on demand, then write that code that
implements your system. a little difficult, and out of my scope, i'm
sure. unless i spent two weeks with minimal sleep.

You'll have to write a parser.
Or use something like bison/flex/yacc to create one for you.
This is not something you want to try to knock out in an afternoon because
you're bored. :-)
Thank-you, but what exactly does a parser do?

Re: [PHP] software catalog
What's up Ryan, I do believe that the cart software you choose should for the most part be independent upon what exactly your selling. There are a few big shopping cart solutions that work for selling anything and I'm sure there are features and / or plugins that will allow you to do discounts based on multiple product purchases. hit up sourceforge or hot scipts and you're sure to find plenty of awsome results. Good Luck! Ryan A wrote: Hey! Anybody know of a software catalog (or cart preferably) that is free? A site i am working for sells software, now they want to have a cart feature so people can put the packages in a cart and get discounts etc if they purchase more than 1 product...they are using 2checkout for processing. I checked the usual places and google of php software cart but got back garbled results, most of that carts are for tangible products :-( Any help or recommendations would be appreciated.

If you want a nice object oriented solution that's easy to use over and
over again which does pretty much the same thing, give this class a whirl.
class page_gen {
//
// PRIVATE - DO NOT MODIFY
//
var $cls_start_time;
var $cls_stop_time;
var $cls_gen_time;
//
// FIGURE OUT THE TIME AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PAGE
//
function start() {
$microstart = explode(' ',microtime());
$this-cls_start_time = $microstart[0] + $microstart[1];
}
//
// FIGURE OUT THE TIME AT THE END OF THE PAGE
//
function stop() {
$microstop = explode(' ',microtime());
$this-cls_stop_time = $microstop[0] + $microstop[1];
}
//
// CALCULATE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BEGINNNG AND THE END AND COLOR
CODE THE RESULT
//
function gen() {
$this-cls_gen_time = round($this-cls_stop_time -
$this-cls_start_time,5);
return $this-cls_gen_time;
}
}
then, on the page you want to time, just put at the top:
require('class.pagegen.php')// OR WHATEVE YOU NAMED IT
$pagegen = new page_gen();
$pagegen-start(); // START TIMING
then at the end...
$pagegen-stop();// STOP TIMING
$pagegen-gen(); // RETURN GENERATION TIME

What's up Rory... actually there *is* a difference. Double quotes are
parsed by the php engine, meaning it goes through and finds variables
and stuff which it can parse, ex. print(Here is a variable:
$variable!); will print Here is a variable: The value of the variable!
Single quotes are not parsed by the php engine, so the same code with
single quotes (print('Here is a variable: $variable!'); will return
Here is a variable: $variable! I hope that answeres your question

[PHP] unexplainable - page generation time class
Howdy! I've made a class which simply determines the page generation
time of a php script... After pretty much an hour of straight examining
the code and trying tons of different things, no good has come of it,
however I can't find an error... anywhere.
?php
class page_gen {
//
// PRIVATE - DO NOT MODIFY
//
var $cls_start_time;
var $cls_stop_time;
var $cls_gen_time;
//
// FIGURE OUT THE TIME AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PAGE
//
function start() {
$microstart = explode(' ',microtime());
$this-cls_start_time = $microstart[0] + $microstart[1];
}
//
// FIGURE OUT THE TIME AT THE END OF THE PAGE
//
function stop() {
$microstop = explode(' ',microtime());
$this-cls_stop_time = $microstop[0] + $microstop[1];
}
//
// CALCULATE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BEGINNNG AND THE END AND
COLOR CODE THE RESULT
//
function gen() {
$this-cls_gen_time = $this-cls_stop_time -
$this-cls_start_time;
return $this-cls_gen_time;
}
}
?
What happens is it simply returns the $this-cls_start_time variable.
Both the start() and stop() functions work fine because to test them I
put print commands at the end and they both returned proper results, the
error appears to be in the line where I minus the start time from the
end time. It simply returns a negative start time instead of minusing
the two.
I tried changing the minus to a plus for testing sake and it just took
out the negative. Does anybody have any idea what is going on here?
Thanks-you

[PHP] Variable Replacement
Hey guys, I'm coding a forum right now and I just decided that I
needed to code some variable replacement to create a simple template
system. This is the code I have but it doesn't work
|?php
$tpl = file http://php.net/file(tpl/head.tpl);
$code = str_replace
http://php.net/str_replace({sitename},$config['sitename'],$tpl);
foreach ($code as $codeline) {
print http://php.net/print($codeline);
}
?|
This simply results in a mess, with only the pictures showing up on my
page... I know this code is horrible but I have no idea how to go about
doing this. I've never worked with reading files and whatnot before
