thx
<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>
... will echo something like...
food/italy/pizza/margherita.php
If you need just margherita.php, then you can explode() the string on
'/', and take the last element:
<?
$pathBits = explode('/',$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
echo $file = $pathBits[count($pathBits)-1];
?>
To look for other useful vars, try <pre><? print_r($_SERVER); ?></pre>

Hi all,
can somebody remind me how to propperly insert not just one but many
variables into a $_SESSION handle? php manual doesn't explain it very well.
It just says that it can be done.
Thanks in advanced,

Sorry, my bad. This is the Register Globals on version...
with RegisterGlobals off you would simply use..
$_SESSION['user'] = $userDataFromForm;
$_SESSION['authLevel'] ....

Hi again,
I have the following code to first start a session and then write a
cookie... is that so hard? Well it is starting the session but the cookie is
not being set. see:
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$_SESSION["user"] = $row[member_id];
if ($_POST["autologin"] == "yes")
{
$id = $_SESSION["user"];
setcookie("memberlogin", $id, time()+60*60*24*365);
header("Location: $CFG->wwwroot");
exit();
}
else
{
header("Location: $CFG->wwwroot");
exit();
}
What can it be? No error is posted.
Thanks in advanced,
Cesar Aracena
--- End Message ---

shouldn't $row[member_id] be $row['member_id']. In case anyone can profit
from this, when I find a function doesn't work right and I am using
variables in its execution I run an echo/die combination immediately before
the function to verify the data being fed to it is as it should be. In this
example...
...
$id = $_SESSION["user"];
echo "setcookie(\"memberlogin\", ".$id.", ".time() +60*60*24*365.");";
die();
setcookie...
What does this yeild?

As extrange as can be, the echo function simply returns the following:
31536000);
but not the setcookie, $varname and $value parts... What's this? Do I havve
a missconfiguration in php.ini file?

Hi,
I think that smarty [ http://smarty.php.net ] can do this for u. It
has tag nesting and, of course, you can define your own tag as a plugin.
As for performance problem - this is known "feature" of regexp. Solution
is not simple. You, IMHO, have to rethink your approach. For parsing
larger or complex files is much better to use state machine (finite
state automaton). Try to search google for more theory. For ex.

Hello,
I'm writing a routine that recursively reads an HTML document, looking for
"special tags". It's a template system, but contrary to what I've seen out
there so far, no template engines allow for any kind of customization from
within the document; they only seem to be variable replacement systems.
What I have in mind is something along the lines of:
<HTML>
blah blah
{MAGICTAG param1=a param2=b}some more {ANOTHERTAG}text{/ANOTHERTAG} here
{/MAGICTAG}
blah
</HTML>
The text between ANOTHERTAG would first be changed and then passed along
with the other text to MAGICTAG. ie, the data is treated from the inside
out, and nesting is obviously supported.
I've got everything working, but the problem is I'm using quite a few "ereg"
statements recursively, so performance is not so good.
Here's a simplified version of the core (it's part of a class, and I
modified the code for a "standalone" version here).
Thanks in advance for any ideas. Feel free to recycle this code.
function parse( $template ) {
//Look for (before*) {a tag} (after*) anything and store matches in
$regs
if( ereg( "(.*)[{]([a-zA-Z0-9]+)[}](.*)", $template, $regs ) ) {
$before = $regs[1];
$tag = $regs[2];
//Now look for (data*) {/closing tag} (after*) in the "after"
portion of first match
if( ereg( "(.*)[{][/]" . $tag. "[}](.*)", $regs[3], $regs ) ) {
$after = $regs[2];
$data = $regs[1];
$resolvedTag = initHandler( $tag, $data ); //handle this tag and
data
}
//support for "standalone" tags (no {/closing tag} )
else {
ereg( "(.*)", $regs[3], $regs );
$resolvedTag = getTagValue( $tag );
$after = $regs[1];
}
}
if( $resolvedTag ) {
$template =
$before
. $resolvedTag
. $after;
parse( $template );
}
else {
return $template;
}
}

Hi Mirek,
thanks for pointing this out. This looks like a great site -- although, as
you say, will require some [longer term] study.
I'll have closer look at Smarty as well...

Maybe, it was "correct" even in the past, but I am astonished that the
following special "variable declaration" works. Although there is not var
$MissingText in the class, one can fill it with data and pass it to the
object.
<?php
class Output {
var $Text;
function PrintOutput($Text){
echo $Text;
}
}
$Message = new Output();
// first attempt
$Message -> Text = "Hello World";
$Message -> PrintOutput($Message -> Text);
// second attempt
$Message -> MissingText = "Hello Moon";
$Message -> PrintOutput($Message -> MissingText);
?>
Maybe you can correct me.

Hi Marco,
This is and has always been possible, php is not a strongly typed language.

Hi
I can see that socket_set_timeout() will set the timeout for

What would do the same for fopen?

Hi List,
How can I sort a while loop or do something before it to achieve the
following?
I have a MySql result fetching something like this:
Id Name Number
1 Bob 34567
2 Ben 234
3 Jeff 4567
4 Dave 2345
But I want to sort the while loop by Number Highest first so the result
looks like this:
Id Name Number
1 Bob 34567
2 Jeff 4567
3 Dave 2345
4 Ben 234
I have looked at sort() asort() and others in the manual and either I am
doing something wrong (which is more than likely) or a while loop is not
what I need to use to achieve this.
Thank you in advance for any help
Dave C
P.S: Happy New Year to you all.

Since you mention mysql, why not just add
"ORDER BY number DESC" to your query? The database will do the work for you.

Hi
I'm working on a PHP5 project with some simple XML. I've seen examples
of SimpleXML in CVS ("tests" and "examples" directories) but cannot find
any real documentation.
Is there any docs somewhere ? where ?
If not, does someone can answer a few questions ?
- how do I add an element ?
- can I change the text content of an element ? if yes, how can I deal
with something like "<element> text1 <sub/> text2 </element>" ?
- can I delete elements ? attributes ?
- how do I deal with namespaces ? I've seen a "register_ns" method but
do not know if registration is inherited, and do not know how to use
namespaces after registration ($element->ns:subelement is not a valid
PHP syntax)
- I've seen many times that simpleXML is limited to 3 levels of nesting
but there is a phpt with 4 levels. Is there a limitation ? if yes, which
one ?
thanks per advance for all answers.

I use the $_SESSION buffer extensively on my site without a problem,
except one.
Maybe someone can help me understand the problem.
I have a simple page counter with a test to see if the page has been
counted for the user.
start_session();
*
* [additional code]
*
if($_SESSION['ctr_file']!==$counterFile) //See if
visitor has already been counted for this page
{$num = $num+1;
$_SESSION['ctr_file'] = $counterFile; //set/reset
counter file for next time
Pages that use the counter function all have a start_session(); and a
call to the counter function,
Everything works fine, except when I include another script file that
also uses the $_SESSION buffer.
What appears to be happening is that start_session() on the second
script reinitializes the session buffer and I lose the data from the
first session.
Yet, as I read php manual, it seems to say that start_session is suppose
to simply restore the variables for the page it is on; not start a new
session.
many thanks....
