I agree. It's a pain to have to click "Reply-to-all" and then strip out
the individuals email address (leaving only the address of the
list)...other lists that I'm on have the reply-to always pointing back to
the list so all you have to do is click "Reply" and you know it will go
where it needs to...

uhhhhmmmm.. I can give you one good reason.. Out Of the Office replies
don't get to the list.. M$ Lookout is specilized in bombing lists with
those stupid messages. Seems a complete list with reasons why you shouldn't
set reply to to the list.. can be found on the web..
Bye,
B.

Ahhh, good point. But I believe that most mail programs (including
Lookout) will only auto-respond to messages where the owners address is the
only one in the "TO:" field. (Someone correct me if they know better...I'm
on Eudora here...) Since messages from the mailing list are send TO:
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" then the autoresponders should ignore
them. This would be consistent with the fact that I've posted a few
messages to this list over the past few weeks, messages that must have been
delivered to at least hundreds of mailboxes with my address as the
reply-to, yet I haven't received a single automatic out-of-office or
vacation response to any of them...

I have some records in a MySQL database that store a start and stop time. In
my display page that displays the record info I would like to use PHP to
find the elapsed time between the two fields. So if I had;
Start 13:44:20
Stop 13:49:25
Possibly use a function to calculate
Elapsed 5:05
Do I need to do this in MySQL?
Thanks,
Tom

echo date("i:s",$d2-$d1);

I've just been preparing a site for upload from my local test server to the
net and have come accross a php.error.log file which was 13.4Mb!
I'm using PHP 4.1.0 and Apache 1.3.19 on Win98se and ever since upgrading to
4.1 PHP
has been creating these error log files all over the place. Does anyone know
what to change in php.ini to stop it doing this?
Also, apart from my coding being rubbish and causing lots of errors, does
anyone know of any reason why an error log file would grow to such a huge
size? The page has onle been accessed a few times and I can't think of any
way a single page could create 1Mb of error text on each hit.

Why don't you actually look at the error log and see what it contains?

While I understand your frustration, and agree with your pre-judgement, I
fail to understand why you would read, let along complain about,
something that clearly says
"PLEASE IGNORE".
It's like touching a wall that's marked "Wet Paint", then complain when
your hands get dirty. This is something that could, and should have
been avoided. The time you took reading, and replying to, this message
could've been spent on something else.
I've been subscribed to this list for over two years, and never have I
done anything that (I thought) would be abusive to other users.
I hardly think three test messages, over a period of two+ years, is
abusive. It's apparent that I was having issues with the lists.
I resolved to that method (of testing), because I felt it was necessary.
I knew it would be a little unneasy, and that's why I
specifically asked users to 'ignore' the message. Your frustration
could've been avoided by simply following instructions.
Nevertheless,
I do apologize for the trouble this test caused (if any). I know it wasn't
the most convenient method, but it was a matter of bad solution vs worst
solution. I've done everything (including unsubscribe/re-subscribe, and
use ezlm command queries) before sending that test message.
FYI
(for those who care)
I recently started having problems with the list. I was receiving
messages, but could not send them.
When I checked the ezlm admin commands ([EMAIL PROTECTED]),
it said my address was NOT subscribed.
Long story short...my server admin changed the server name (added an extra
name to the domain), so the list saw the new name as a new address. Old
addresses were translated here (on my server), but not in the list.

Brian et al -
How do I redirect the output *if* the output is errors? For example
# make > /home/todd/makeerr.txt
I am getting an error when I run "make" after configuring with
"--with-apxs". The configure runs fine; it is just the make and I have
noticed that with the above redirect, everything goes to the file
*except* the errors.

Oh, and if you want it *all* to go to that file:
make 2>&1 /home/todd/makeerr.txt
You can also use grep or egrep to search for specific things if you
want.

Gah! I need to just go watch TV or something.
I meant:
make 2>&1 > /home/todd/makeerr.txt
That directs STDERR to STDOUT and that's redirected to
/home/todd/makeerr.txt
Sorry for the list bomb.

Hi all -
I'm experimenting with PHP's XML parser for an application that maps XML
tags to MySQL database fields.
As a test for my parsing program, I've been grabbing XML from the
Slashdot news feed (http://www.slashdot.org/slashdot.xml) and inserting
it into a database. This is very simple data - <title>blah</title> gets
inserted into the 'title' field, etc. However, when there are some
strange characters in the title field, the XML parser seems to choke.
Here is an example. The title of a recent article from Slashdot looks
like this in the XML file:
<title>Follow-up To Critique of BeOS &amp; Mac OS X</title>
Don't ask my why they have a double ampersand in there... Anyway, the
XML parser returns this as three sets of data, instead of one. The array
that I get looks like this:
$myArray[0] = "Follow-up To Critique of BeOS "
$myArray[1] = "&"
$myArray[2] = "amp; Mac OS X"
This is the data I get back from the parser, BEFORE putting it into the
database. I'm echoing each array field to the screen, just to make sure.
So I know it has nothing to do with MySQL. The double ampersand
shouldn't make a difference - the XML parser should not be interpreting
HTML...right? Also, I don't get an error code or error string from
xml_parse().
Anyone have any ideas? This is a subtle bug - in fact I had been
satisfied with my XML parsing code, and was well into the rest of my
application when I happened to notice this.

A DYNAMIC, Happy, New Year.
PHP is great. Through it, and Linux, I've had a very interesting two years of
programming and
my career seems to be bending away from desktop apps and towards net-oriented ones.
