RE: [PHP] Form help
You could have a check for the HTTP_REFERER variable, if it doesn't
contain "application.php", chances are they didn't come from that page.
it's not a good idea to rely on $HTTP_REFERER for anything, and especially
for this. a referer is only reported when the user follows a hyperlink, so
in the hypothetical case given there would be no referer.
Isn't that the point? If there's no referer, they didn't come from the first
page, so you send them back there. I could be completely wrong here - is
HTTP_REFERER empty following a form submission, even if it's to a different
page?
what you need to do is combine your two scripts, which is really a neater
way handling forms anyway. point your form action to the same page
($PHP_SELF works really well for this, since you can rename the file and
it will still run properly), and then add the following code to the top
of your application.php file
if($GLOBALS["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
include("process_application.php");
exit;
}
This is how I would handle it personally, but then he'd mentioned having two
pages, so..
Cheers

Now when someone refreshes/reloads the page they get the
question if they want to resubmit the form.
I don't want that. You get double posts this way.
I know it is possible to check the input for any duplicates,

However, JavaScript can do this -- there's a screen object, with properties called screen.width and screen.height that specify (surprisingly enough) the width and height of the user's screen.

This is because your server is set up to parse .php files as php, and .html files as html. If you have access to your httpd.conf or whatever, you can set it to include .html files in the php parsing.

[PHP] Problems with date() - what have I missed?
Hi list.
I have a strange problem with a PHP script (WinNT/Apache/PHP4/MySQL).
The line of code
$dayname = date("D", mktime(0,0,0,$cmonth,$eventdate,$cyear));
should, if I understand it correctly, fill the variable $dayname with the
three-letter abbreviation of the day of the week for the date I supply.
I have $cmonth=3, $eventdate=26, and $cyear=2001. I would expect this to put
"Mon" in $dayname, given that March 26th 2001 is a Monday. However, my
script displays "Tue" which is a bit peculiar.
As if that weren't enough, it isn't consistent in getting the days wrong.
For example:
November 30th 2000 was a Thursday. It gets this right.
December 14th 2000 was a Thursday. It says it was a Tuesday.
January 11th 2001 was a Thursday. It says it was a Monday.
February 11th 2001 was a Sunday. It says it was a Monday.
March 26th 2001 is a Monday. It says it is a Tuesday.
What am I doing wrong? Is it something to do with last year (officially it
wasn't a leap year but as 2000 is divisible by 4, many people thought it
should be)? I'm in GMT so unless it's a BST thing I'm not being affected by
a local time zone.
All help gratefully appreciated

helps a *lot* :-)

Go into your httpd.conf file and look for a set of lines that look something like: IfModule mod_dir.c DirectoryIndex index.php index.shtml /IfModule The DirectoryIndex directive lists, in order, which pages the server should look for when it receives a request ending in /. As you can see, my config looks for an index.php file, followed by an index.shtml file. If it fails for both of these, I *think* it will return an HTTP 404 error.

Subject: [PHP] newbie mail() function
Hello!
I am very new to php programming. I have been experimenting around with
php's mail function and html forms.
I have a generic HTML form with user_name, email_address, comments, and
like_site as inputs on the HTML
form. I have the following code in a seperate php file which the form calls:
?php
$msg = "Sender's Full Name:\t$user_name\n";
$msg .= "Sender's Email Address:\t$email_address\n";
$msg .= "User Comments:\t$comments\n";
$msg .= "Did you like the site?\t$like_site\n\n";
$mailheaders = "From: My Web Site\n"
9$mailheaders .= "Reply-To: $email_address\n\n";
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Feedback Form", $msg, $mailheaders);
echo ("Thank you $user_name\nbr");
echo ("I appreciate your feedback\n\n");
?
for some reason I get a parse error on line 9. If I remove the mailheaders
variables the PHP script works
just fine and emails the form to the correct address. Any help on this
would be appreciated.
It is probably something qyite simple. I just don't see it though.
Thanks.
Chad

RE: [PHP] For My Information
Over 60% of websites use Apache. Many people using MySQL and PHP also run Apache for the complete open source solution. This is cheap to set up, and easy to get support for (there's even a mailing list called AMP - Apache/MySQL/PHP). And, IIRC, those on NT 4.0 Workstation don't *have* IIS. It's easy to configure and maintain, is constantly being upgraded and bug-fixed, and has tons of support and reference online. Just my 0.02 euros, obviously.

Is there a reason? I have PHP up and running with dBase tables converted to MySQL and ODBC connected to Access 2000, on an NT 4 box with IIS 4 and it runs very well. Performance is great. My only problem is automating the conversion to update tables in MySQL. I would like like to convert the Access 2000 tables also but the converters either don't seem to work with Access 2k, or not much at all, or are not such that a timed batch file can be generated using them. I just looked at what I've written and it's a little jumbled. Mega-Sigh. Let me summarize. 1.. Why Apache on NT 4.0? 2.. Is there a good way to automatically convert Access 2000 to MySQL to keep MySQL data up to date? The data needs to be updated several times a week. No I can't just switch everything over and not have to convert again. 3.. A way to do #2 for dBase would be good too, but less critical because the data only gets updated every couple months.

RE: [PHP] upload_max_filesize
It's usually in your system root, but you could have put it somewhere else when you installed PHP. If you're on Windows it's liable to be in \windows\system, \windows\system32, \winnt\system, or \winnt\system32. Most OSes come with a Find Files command these days (just a thought). Once you have found it, open it in your favourite text editor. Search for "upload_max_filesize" and set it to whatever you like. Save it.

If you've copied-and-pasted that script, you might want to correct this
line:

Both the words "script" and "Javascript" have a T on the end of them :-)
On the other hand, why don't you just use PHP for the whole thing? Get the
e-mail address from a form, make the action of this form $PHP_SELF, and have
a condition along the lines of
if ($submit) {
... send the mail
} else {
... display the form
}
Then you don't have to switch to and from client- and server-side scripts,
and you don't risk your system being fubar'd by people who browse with
Javascript turned off.

RE: [PHP] Beginner in php!
Hi, welcome to the wonderful world of PHP... grin You can use any text editor you like to write your PHP, my personal favourite is EditPlus 2 (www.editplus.com), but this is holy war territory so try a few out and see which one you get on with best. There are loads of great tutorials all over the www, IMHO you could do a lot worse than starting off at Webmonkey (http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/programming/php/) where there are a shedload of articles to do with loads of different aspects of PHP. If you're using NT Workstation and you're currently stuck with PWS (a big pile of sh*te), you might want to have a look at Apache (www.apache.org) which is considerably better. For databases, I'd heartily recommend MySQL (www.mysql.com). This combination - Apache/PHP/MySQL - is used by a huge number of websites and the support is superb from the open source community. The best thing about the whole lot is it's easy to persuade management to go for projects where the overall price tag is 0.00!

I.E. checking if you could open the picture or not, and displaying a message
either way.
I have tried
$file = fopen ("../images/maps/$filename.jpg", "r");
if (!$file) {
print "This is no map for this trip.";
exit;
}
else
{
print "img src=/images/maps/$filename.jpg";
}
This works but also brings up a warning message as well, which is not
wanted.
Is there a way to get rid of the warning message?

RE: [PHP] I love/hate FrontPage - need another HTML editor.
But, you know, the look and feel of a site is pretty important and an HTML editor goes a long way toward managing that part. If you can find an editor that helps you set up some style sheets that carry across all your pages without you having to type in all the code for every page, you're golden. If you can get some reports that check to be sure that you don't have any dead-ends, man, you're saving you and your users from some serious frustration. And, better yet, if you can see a bird's-eye view of your site with some easy-to-check tree charts, you can check on the logical layout of the site. Eek. You shouldn't have to "type in all the code" for each page for your styles anyway. The line link href="css/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" in your head../head will bring the same style rules into every document and give you the advantage of smaller pages. You can get link checkers such as Xenu which work superbly, even building you an HTML site map you can cut 'n' paste into your own site. I can't see the advantages of using an editor over hand code so far. See, all our fancy-schmancy work with databases and power-code is for naught if it's not easily accessible to the visitor and I think we all overlook that to our peril. What was that British fashion site that recently folded because they delayed launching because they wanted to "get it just right?" Then, their site was so bloated and took so long to load that people just surfed away... I think that a good HTML editor will display how long a page will load using various modem speeds and allow me to choose whether I want to spring that kind of burden on my visitors. Well, yes, in the same way Photoshop displays how long an image is supposed to take to load. But, in my experience, most HTML editors write code that is considerably more long-winded than a well-coded page should be - so the only benefit you get is an accurate picture of how much your editor has messed up your code. If you design your pages well and code them properly, you can avoid many of the long download times associated with most websites today. If you run an image-intensive site, optimising your pictures is as (more?) important than having tight code - and an HTML editor doesn't help with this. It was boo.com that went under, incidentally. So, you've used both products and you know what I mean when I say that I can apply a "theme" with FrontPage. Can you do likewise with Dreamweaver? If you set up a site that specializes in fireworks, for instance, will a button that you design once with a pretty exploding shell carry across all your pages without having to insert or "include" it on all your pages? With FrontPage, you just set up one "theme" and all the elements carry across without having to manually include them. That's the kind of drudgery I'd like to get away from so that all I have to do is open up the editor and stick some PHP in there that interacts with MySQL. Without having to insert or include it? You have two options, if you want the same stuff on several pages. 1. Have the code on each page. (ugh - if you want to change it you have to change all of them, and each page is bigger). 2. Have an include file of some sort (.css, .inc, .whatever) and link to it. I don't see (2) as being more drudgery than (1), quite the reverse in fact. Do you think I'm living in La-La Land? Not really - there's a time and a place for editors (marketing people who want to "just design a quick page for the Intranet"), but for anything serious, I'd like to quote your first sentence again. There's no question that hand-coding is the way to go. I'm with you 110% on that score!

Hi Rick,
you are not doing anything wrong. You just have to send the proper
content-type depending on what you're outputing. For example if you want
to
produce a gif image you have to use header("Content-type: image/gif");
There's nothing wrong with it as PHP can't predict what you want to do.
text/html is set as default simply because it's the type most users in
most
cases need.
Yes, I know that. But what I'm saying is that eg.
?php
header("Content-type: text/vnd.wap.wml");
?
wml
card
pHello world!/p
/card
/wml
...gets put out with a text/html content type as opposed to the specified
text/vnd.wap.wml. Having said that, I just tried it on the linux machine and
it worked fine. A Windows thing?

RE: [PHP] Working out the name of the day given a date
Hmmm. I did:
$timestamp = mktime(0,0,0,$month,$date,$year);
$day = date("1", $timestamp);
and it returns 1, no matter what the contents of $month, $date and $year
are. Did I miss something?

covert your date string to a unix timestamp and then use date("l",
$myString)

RE: [PHP] Working out the name of the day given a date
Gah. I read that lower case l as a number 1. Time to get new glasses/switch
to 640x480 mode.
Thanks to everyone for your help.
Cheers
Jon

[PHP] Problem with Exec()
Hello list,
I'm having a problem with Exec and Sendmail, on PHP-4 running under Apache
1.3.14 on Windows NT.
When I go to a DOS prompt and enter
d:\sendmail\sendmail -t -messagefile=d:\sendmail\msg.txt
it works fine. When I have any of the lines
exec ("d:\sendmail\sendmail.exe -t -messagefile=d:\sendmail\msg.txt");
exec ("d:\\sendmail\\sendmail.exe -t -messagefile=d:\\sendmail\\msg.txt");
$foo = exec ("d:\sendmail\sendmail.exe -t
-messagefile=d:\sendmail\msg.txt");
$foo = exec ("d:\\sendmail\\sendmail.exe -t
-messagefile=d:\\sendmail\\msg.txt");
all that happens is my PHP script times out. If I remove this line,
everything works fine. I'm sure I'm missing something simple but I'm *very*
tired. Any ideas?
Cheers
Jon

RE: [PHP] to be persistent connected or not to be persistent connected
In your Apache httpd.conf, do you have the line KeepAlive On - this is the Apache directive to turn on persistent connections. You will also want to play with the MaxKeepAliveRequests directive, if you set it to 0 then it will allow an unlimited number of connections. There may be more to it than this, but it's worth checking. HTH Jon -Original Message- From: Kayra Otaner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 January 2001 15:32 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] to be persistent connected or not to be persistent connected Hi, I am searching for detailed information about persistent connection. I've looked at all the web sites just for "persistent" word but always I found the same information. All the time people are saying "persistent connection is good if you are dealing with lots of small queries". Here is my case: This week I've upgraded necessary server software to the latest versions of Php and Apache (Php 4.04 and Apache 1.3.14) As I did before upgrade I've compiled Php as an Apache Static Module ( mod_so is not necessary ) And check MySQL for persistent connection. My site is focused on free web services like graphic counter, polls, url redirection, webring and news syndication to personal web sites. (www.kelalaka.net, it is Turkish only). Only for graphic counter services, it counts 180.000+ hits per day. It means 350.000+ queries per day. Day average is 250 query , 60 connection per minute, but in popular hours it is very high and MySQL server gives "Too many connections" errors. MySQL server is default and set to 100 connection at most. Yesterday I ordered more ram in order to increase connection number of MySQL from 100 to 200+ connection. But today I realized that my server wasn't work with persistent connection. All the Php code contains mysql_pconnect for MySQL connections. Apache and Php works in module type not in cgi mode. I've looked at phpinfo() in order to see anything that can indicate status of persistent connection. It says "mysql.allow_persistent is On". But again in phpinfo it says "Active Persistent Links 1" . It is sometime changes to "0". In MySQL I am looking for active processess by using "mysql" and "show processlist" commands it shows me 100 active links but most of them are in sleep state. In php.ini there is a line in order to set maximum number of persistent connection and I set it to just 25. If somebody uses mysql_pconnect's instead of mysql_connect in Php cgi mode, he doesn't see any error messages. All mysql_pconnects work like mysql_connect. My questions : 1 - How can users exactly determine whether they are using Php as a module or cgi mode? (from phpinfo or ..?) 2 - Is it sufficient Php and Apache compiled in static or dynamic module version in order to use mysql_pconnects in Php code? Anything to do with MySQL? 3 - In a Apache + Php module compiled system is it normal to reach more than predefined connection number in php.ini? (100 active connection but 25 defined in php.ini. In phpinfo shows same settings in the php.ini file (it shows 25 max persistent connection)) 4 - Is there any web page containing a real how-to and tutorial about persistent connection? (If not I will certainly prepare one in a few weeks :-)) Any kind of help will be appreciated...
