How can I click a button using JavaScript print function and have it generate a PDF with FPDF and get the PDF printed automagically? It seems I have done this before but I cannot recall what I did.

sounds more like a homework assignment. by now you know range(),
by all means have array_map() too:

It's weird, but true--the simple '<=' breaks the loop.
However, in the above example, you don't need the 'else'; the 'break'
ensures that the 'echo $i'; will not execute.
You can step around the the problem more elegantly:
for ($i = 'a'; $i !== 'aa'; $i++) {
echo $i;
}

Re: [PHP] print() or echo
echo is slightly faster than print and it takes multiple arguments so instead of: echo '' . $test . ''; you can do echo '' , $test , ''; which should be faster, and I say 'should' just because as print should be slower because it has to go into the trouble of setting up a return value, so avoiding doing a concatenation first and then output the whole thing by just streaming each of the pieces to the output straight away should be faster, though string operations are so optimized as to be neglig well, you can't tell the difference.

While we're at it (running benchmarks three times, varying amount of loops): Benchmarking with 100K loops Case 1 : 'Adding a 10-character single quoted string to a var' Time : 0.23s - 0.24s Case 2 : 'Adding a 10-character double quoted string to a var' Time : 0.23s - 0.24s Performance : Anywhere between Decreased 1.1% and Increased 26.7% This seems really funny to me, cause I was under the impression a single quoted string was faster... I remember benchmarking that before. Benchmarking with 10K loops Case 1 : 'Adding a 100-character single quoted string to a var' Time : 0.03s - 0.08s Case 2 : 'Adding a 100-character double quoted string to a var' Time : 0.03s Performance : Anywhere between Increased 0.7% and Increased 66.9% Still funny... and numbers get higher, too.

Benchmarking with 1M loops Case 1 : 'Setting a var with a 100-character single quoted string incl. a variable (concat)' Time : 3.59s - 4.07s Case 2 : 'Setting a var with a 100-character double quoted string incl. a variable' Time : 4.14s - 4.40s Performance : Anywhere between Decreased 8.2% - Decreased 19.2% Well, try not to use variables in a string, but concatenate it together. Benchmarking with 1M loops Case 1 : 'Setting a var with a 100-character double quoted string incl. a variable (concat)' Time : 3.58s - 3.79s Case 2 : 'Setting a var with a 100-character double quoted string incl. a variable' Time : 4.12s - 5.24s Performance : Anywhere between Decreased 14.9% - Decreased 38.4% Same with using double quoted strings only...

You could try echo-ing it out in "chunks" instead of waiting until the very end. echo/print has to send the data "out" through the very narrow pipe to Apache -> the browser If you send every little snippet one tiny piece at a time, you waste resources. If you wait until the end and send out some huge monster string, you waste resources. Find the balance if you can.

The double quoted version has all the \n and related characters that need to be handled. Except that php is a C program and uses the printf family of functions. This means that all the single quoted strings actually have to be converted to escaped versions of double quoted strings, so internally '\n' becomes "\\n". You can see this in some benchmarks, I ran the following script and a single quoted version from the command line. I ran each 10 times, interleaved to try to balance changes in the system load. I found that the double quoted version averaged 5.5516 seconds against the single quoted script of 5.5627. Which really goes to show that while the double quoted version is faster the difference is almost completely irrelevent.

[PHP] Print or Echo takes lots of time
Hi, When I was check the performance of my system I found interesting resuts. My code stores html output into a variable. When page creation complete I printed out the variable. Problem was generation html code takes 0.5 second and just echo $strPage takes 2.0 or more second. my code structure was. $strPage = " yada dayda"; ... $strPage.= " another html tags"; ... $strPage.= getSqlDataAndCreateSomeHtmlCOde(); ... end of page creation. Current Total execution time 0.5 seconds. print $strPage; Current Total execution time 2.5 seconds. $strPage carries entire html structure (for example equal of 100K html code); excluding the cookie and other kind of header transfers and error messages, there was no print or echo command was submitted. Is there any idea about this latency and any idea to find problem... Regards Sancar Saran -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

you printed $obj which is an instance of B, which happens to

class A {}
class B extends A {}

You need to loop thru the result set if it's going to return more than
one row
while ( $column = mysql_fetch_array ( $result ) {
print $column[0];
}
In your query above, there won't be a $column[1] [2], etc., since you're
only selecting 'username'. 'username' will be the first and only element.

Re: [PHP] Print a variable's name

Because PHP passes arguments by value, you will be out of luck in most
cases -- by the time your debugging function sees the argument, it's no
longer tied to the calling scope. Michael Sims' example function works
only for variables in the global scope, which probably won't work for
anything complex enough to need its own debugging library.
I'm trying to extend my library of debugging functions/procedures by
having a procedure which can be used to "inspect" a variable whenever I
call it.
You may find what you need in debug_backtrace(). Alternatively, just pass
the variable name along:
function echo_var($varname, $varvalue) {
printf("%s: %s\n", $varname, $varvalue);
}
...Which isn't much of an improvement over a plain old echo/print. And if
that's good enough for Brian Kernighan, I'd hope it's good enough for you.

Re: [PHP] Print a variable's name - FIXED
I didn't say SOLVED becuase this gets me "sor of" what I want :
I added to the function an optional parameter so that if I reall wanted
the var name to show I can pass it in...
I know it's messy, but for debugging it's fine:
function showvar($var,$varname="Var: ") {
echo "Now Showing ".$varname.": \n";
echo $var;
}
This way I supply the var name if I want to.. such as:
$s1 = "Hello World";
showvar($s1,"s1");
or
showvar($s1);
thanks all

I'm trying to extend my library of debugging functions/procedures by
having a procedure which can be used to "inspect" a variable whenever
I call it.
This is a bit kludgy, but should work:
function showvar($varname) {
if (!isset($GLOBALS[$varname])) { return; }
echo "Now showing: $varname\n";
echo "Value: ".$GLOBALS[$varname]."\n";

The problem with the above is that it assumes that there will never be more than one
global variable that contains the same value, and will give incorrect output in this
case:
$s1 = "Hello World";
...
$s2 = "Hello World";
...
showvar($s1);
Also it's probably a better idea to have the "showvar" function use print_r() or
var_export() in case it is passed something other than a scalar.

Hello,
I have printed plenty and regularly under Linux through CUPS by issuing:
exec("lpr -Pprinter_name file_to_print")
or
$ph = popen("lpr -Pprinter_name");
fwrite($ph, $data_to_print);
pclose($ph);
If you need fancy printout, it might be a good idea to produce PDF that is
printed out, then. If this is what you want, take a look at
http://dataxi.sourceforge.net and download solib-version.tar.gz that
contains sopdf.php -- or dataxi-version.tar.gz for higher level PDF
classes. You need www.pdflib.com (free lite version available) in order
to use sopdf.php or it's derivants.

The printer functions only work under Windows. From
http://www.php.net/printer :
"These functions are only available under Windows 9.x, ME, NT4 and 2000."
So if you are on windows, you can try running the printer_write()
example ( http://www.php.net/printer-write )
If you are not on Windows, one way you can print is to try some output
redirection and see what kind of results you get, eg :
system("cat file.txt > lpt1");
were lpt1 is where your printer is connected. If your printer is
connected directly to the computer, it is on lp1 (usually, lpt1 is the
default printer port (parallel)). I think lpt1 stands for "line printer
terminal 1", but I'm not too sure about that. There are probably better
ways to do the same on other systems, but this is the quick example I

Although really, heredoc can't be compared to either echo or print, as it's just a string definition that eventually will be printed. So I guess you guys are really comparing "" vs heredoc?

> Hi, again!! I thought I saw this post once already. > I'm looking for opinions as to which is better/faster, print or heredoc. Well, like the guy said before, it sounds like you've pretty much already made up your mind. I don't use heredocs everywhere, but when I have a fairly large block of html with a small number of straight variable substitutions (no conditionals, etc.), I sometimes find heredocs to be convenient, and a lot easier to read in the source. > print makes the code layout look nice Well, one of the purposes of a heredoc is to get the code out of the content, yielding a cleaner, more readable layout. If that's not what you're getting, you probably don't want to use heredocs. > and eazy to debug, If there's something you need to debug, heredocs are possibly not indicated. > where heredoc > IS faster but makes the code look like a nightmare with everything > jammed against the left side of the code. Not sure what you're saying. When I use heredocs, that is not the result, by any stretch of the imagination. (Well, I'm not sure about the speed business.) > I'm pretty picky about what looks good and heredoc is a nightmare of > horrors...

[PHP] print vs heredoc
Hi, again!! I'm looking for opinions as to which is better/faster, print or heredoc. print makes the code layout look nice and eazy to debug, where heredoc IS faster but makes the code look like a nightmare with everything jammed against the left side of the code. I'm pretty picky about what looks good and heredoc is a nightmare of horrors... Robin E. Kopetzky Black Mesa Computers/Internet Services www.blackmesa-isp.net
