There's a scalar type-hinting patch floating around somewhere, but
then your code would only work on machines with that patch.

I can see two choices - either throw an exception in checkInt() if
it's passed anything except an int or a string (which is fine -
because you've made the assumption explicit) or change the checkInt()
so it deals with ints-masquerading-as-floats. Try:
function checkInt($x) {
return((string)((int)$x) == $x);
}

Yup. Pretty graphs. That's not the best unit test example to work
from, BTW - the manual will give you better advice than I.

I guess this should work
set_time_limit(0);
$ch = curl_init($siteURL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, 'stream.bin');
curl_exec($ch);

oops, I sent directly the file name. Let me reformulate the code then:
set_time_limit(0);
$fp = fopen('stream.bin', 'wb');
$ch = curl_init($siteURL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);
curl_exec($ch);
fclose($fp);
Apologize I did not test it before.
Regards

If you're re-using a curl handle then it may be a good idea to set
these explicitly. However, these are also the default values so it's
not really necessary to set them for a new handle. You're right that
it's a good idea to include the 'b' in the fopen() mode.

I wouldn't recommend setting this to 0 unless you're very sure that
the connection will succeed; otherwise, your script will hang
indefinitely waiting for the connection to be made.

agreed, it's just he set timeout to zero so I guess he meant the curl
connection as well otherwise it does not make sense to set the timeout to 0 if
curl has 10 seconds timeout :-)

If he wants to download a very large file then it would make sense to
set_time_limit(0) but leave the curl connect timeout enabled; he
wouldn't want the PHP script timing out partway through a large
download. :) The curl timeout isn't for the transfer; just for making
the connection.

uhm, right, I should have better explain that option ... still, if timelimit is
0, I guess connection timeout matters, maybe I am wrong.
Thanks.

Hi...
I'm thinking about a document management system that can put user signature
on the created digital document. Here's the app-flow I can imagine ...
My php application creates a pdf document.
The pdf document is displayed to user.
Using the digital pen, the user will put his/her signature on this document.
or Using the touch screen, the user will put his/her signature.
The pdf document with the user signature is saved to the db.
Has anyone done this before ??
Thanks
