I think Erik has gotten his terms mixed. He wants the "most-chosen" value,
which is the "mode" and not "median".
To get the mode, use array_count_values();

I told you guys I was bad at math! I don't even remember the terms...
thanks to everyone who replied to this thread with advice, it looks like
I can do:
- grab all values from the desired inputs and slap them into an array
- run the array against array_count_values() to get the number of each
input value in that array (in the form of a new array)
- rsort the resulting new array (of 'value => occurrences' form) to put
the
highest-numbered array at the beginning of the array
- the key of the first element in this rsorted array is the value I am
looking for -- the most-chosen value from the initial user inputs
- array_flip the array inside the first element of the rsorted array to
make
the key into the value and vice versa
- my desired value is now the value of the first element in the array
It seems like a lot of work, but sounds logical. The end result is the
most-chosen value from the user inputs becomes the value of the first
element in the array returned by array_count_values() after that array
has been rsorted and flipped.
Crazy!
Erik
PS: can anyone see a flaw in this scheme? Can anyone even tell what I'm
talking about?

hi again,
well sorry about that, it worked when i changed it to:
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-xml --with-curl
--with-swf=/usr/local/flash --enable-ftp --with-gd=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local
--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 --with-png-dir=/usr --with-imap
--with-ming=/usr/src/ming-0.2a --enable-magic-quotes --with-mysql --enable-safe-mode
--enable-track-vars --with-ttf --enable-versioning --with-zlib
...however, now i ran into another problem: Ming!
The source is located /usr/src/ming-0.2a
and the installed files are located:
/usr/lib
/usr/include
but neither of these 3 is accepted in the configure line.
Or can i just leave it in the configure line and then just add the php_ming.so file,
copy it into the extension dir and add it to php.ini file?
Regards,
Duncan

No. If you display data on my machine I can do anything with it,
since it must exist on my machine in some form in order to be
displayed.

Seriously, another option that works in IE would be to use the link tag
in the <head> of the document. Put an alternate document in the tag
so when they print the page you can control the content. Here is the
tag:
<link rel=alternate media=print href="whatever.txt">

But you could save the page... change the colors and then print it.

If you have control over the query string, just name your variable 'state[]'
and then when it is passed through the query string as:
http://www.archipro.com/test.php?state[]=AB&state[]=BC
PHP will see that it is an array and will parse it as such and you can
access the variables as an array.
Cheers!
Rick

Hello,
Thanks for your responses; however, I do not think I have the gd
libraries installed because ImageCreateFromString() was not found. I will
install it.
I have a question: I can display the PNG or GIF image using the
browser. So Why do I need the GD library? Since I store the mime type in
the database I think that a call to header() to tell the browser what type
of mime-type is coming from the database should sufice. Also, I want to
store any type of binary data into my database (PNG, GIF, word, JPG, etc) Am
I missing something?
Thanks,
-Teresa

You need to insert the following lines after this line:
Header("Content-type: image/gif");
$im = ImageCreateFromString ($fileContent);
ImageGif ($im);
and then remove this line: echo $fileContent;
That should do it.

RE: [PHP] Unable to display images on browserI've never done this in PHP, but one way
of testing if your output is correct is telnet to your webserver and request the php
script yourself. Then request a valid JPG (or whatever), and compare the outputs..
If you have netcat (great tool), you can do this:
nc localhost 80 -v >> output.txt
GET /ddownloadfile.php?fileId=1 HTTP/1.0
and in output.txt would be some headers and some raw data, and u can compare this to a
normal jpg request.
If you don't have netcat, then just use standard telnet that comes with windows and
type
GET /ddownloadfile.php?fileId=1 HTTP/1.0
for the request as normal
Hope this helps

This is a simple solution and it should work and you'll probably kick
yourself when you hear it *grin* Use:
<textarea rows=8 cols=50 name=open_why_good_consult><?echo
$open_why_good_consult?></textarea>
Put it all on one line, because the way you have it currently there are
white spaces in the textarea and a newline so it's always going to be FALSE
when testing to see if it's empty.
Cheers!

Hi,
I use NT for development and I like to write snippets of code and
test them on my local box. I can do this in Perl. How can I do that
in PHP without installing a webserver etc. etc. I guess I can install
a version of PHP and just make sure I've got the path in my env.
Thanks,

Just download the CGI version and call it from the command line. I am
doing a project now based entirely on the command line using PHP as a file
parser on Win 2K. You can add it to your path or just call it:
c:\php\php.exe -q nameOfScript.php
Make sure you write it like a normal PHP script with the tags <?. The -q
will supress the HTTP headers.

I and my www space provider have fought with a problem. All
files/directories created by PHP are owned by nobody/nobody and we want
them to be created by my own uid/guid. How this would be solved by least
amount of modification in the scripts.
The problem is in that safe mode requires that the script and the
directory containing the file/directory to be accessed is owned by me
and only me. If I tell PHP to create a directory test1 under my www root
and then change to that directory and tell it to create another
directory for example called test2, it fails because test1 is owned by
nobody, not me.

The easiest way to make this work is to use open_basedir settings instead
of safe_mode. Safe_mode is specifically created to prevent you from doing

if you are on a unix system running with apache, you could modify the
virtual host block and have apache run as your user name and then change the
permissions of the docroot so you are the owner and group.

Smarty 2.0 is out!
The most notable new things:
*) Smarty has been rewritten with an underlying plugin architecture,
so adding functions, modifiers, compiler functions, prefilters,
postfilters, resources, and insert functions is as easy as dropping
a file into the plugin directory.
*) Performance, performance, performance! The benchmark page shows the
huge steps Smarty has made in performance, as well as comparisons to
other well known template engines.
*) Completely reorganized documentation, available in HTML and PDF.
*) Smarty no longer depends on PEAR.

No, that is not a good idea. It is potentially much worse to allow people
to execute include files out of context than to merely let them see them.
The correct way to handle this is to either put your include files outside
the document_root, or add an Apache rule to block any direct access to
.inc files.

I have been using this code to show the last modified time:
(Note: the following was adapted from http://www.terrabyte.dc.com.au/phpscripts.php3 )
// the server is 13 hours ahead of Eastern Time USA
$hourdiff = "13";
$timeadjust = ($hourdiff * 60 * 60);
$eastern_time = date("d M Y g:ia",getlastmod() - $timeadjust);
echo "Last modified: $eastern_time (ET/USA) <br />";
This works really well, except for one thing.
All of my pages have two required parts:
index.php
body.html
and two optional parts
header.html
footer.html
The code above is 'include'd into 'index.php'
'index.php' is a boilerplate, and will hardly ever change.
The optional files are not likely to change all that often, if ever, if
they exist.
Is there a way that I can adapt the above PHP code to show the last mod.
time of 'body.html' (always the same filename) instead of index.php?
TjL
ps -- I did try to Google the solution, but this is such a specific
situation (needing to adjust the timestamp and then check the last mod of
an included file) that I did not have any luck finding anything that was
'on target'. Pointers happily selected.

Hello, I am writing software which uses MySQL as a
backend. I need to accept Arabic form input, store it
in MySQL, and use it later. I don't believe MySQL
supports Unicode except in BLOB column types, so I
want to convert it to NCR (numeric character html
entities). After looking at iconv() and recode(), I
think I need to use mb_encode_numericentity(). Some
questions:
1) Does that sound right? Accept Arabic form input and
then use mb_encode_numericentity() to convert it to
html character entities and then store in db?
2) Does anyone know where I can get a conversion map
for Arabic text? I'm still not sure what the encoding
is used by browsers to submit Arabic, iso-8859-6 I am
assuming.
3) Any other words of advice? :)
Thank you for any help! I have spent a lot of time
poring over manuals and technical papers to learn this
i18n stuff but I am stuck with the best way to
implement this in a web application I need to finish
(a non-commercial web project). Thank you!

I have a weblog type script I'm building for a friend where there are main
posts then comments - Registered users can post comments, unregistered don't
even have the option. I was thinking of making a page where a user logs on,
then it registers a session with a few variables like $sid, $username, etc.
IF a user is logged on, they can post, if not they don't even see the option.
Instead of doing a SQL query everytime they look at the posts, I was thinking
of registering a variable called like $true where if they're logged on, it's
set, and if it's set they see the option to post. The only thing I'm worried
about though is that someone could probably figure out to type in something
like comments.php?true=1 and that would allow anonymous posting, which I
don't want. Is there anyway to set a variable that can't be set in a query
string? Or, is there even a better way of doing something like this?
Sorry if I don't make much sense in this question, explaining what a script
is supposed to do is kind of difficult for me :)

Have you investigated the possibility of turning register_globals=off ?
That's exactly why this recommendation was made. This keeps any GET
variables passed in the querystring (like the way you describe true=1
being passed) from being interpreted as session variables. When
register_globals=off, you have much more control and a much better sense
of where your variables are coming from and which variables you are
privileging to perform actions. This is because every variable (apart
from variables that are created only for the purposes of the current
script) is marked as being within the $_POST or $_GET or $_SESSION
array, etc. Someone can send GET variables like comments.php?true=1 all
they want, but your script doesn't globalize them -- and your script is
also specifically programmed to only check the $_SESSION array for the
presence of "true=1" (i.e. : if ($_SESSION['true'] == 1) etc). Thus
any extraneous GET variables just bounce off your script, having no
effect unless the script specifically looks for $_GET['true'] or
something.

Nope, that won't work. I'm not even sending output at this point, just
trying to prevent a header from being sent and I'm not being allowed to
override it.
Maybe in some later version we'll get the ability to either fine-tune what
headers the Session handler sends, or the ability to directly modify what's
being sent for headers? Pleeease?
-- Daniel Grace
(my original message is re-quoted for context below)
Is there a way to override the headers that session_start() sends to the
browser from within a PHP script? On php 4.0.4pl1 (will be upgrading to
4.1.1 later) on SOME browsers (notably, IE 6.0 on XP -- my setup), a script
I have that outputs a PDF document will misbehave in IE when the "No-store"
portion of a cache-control header is present... which PHP sends as part of
the sessions.
When this is present, IE6 will either come up with a blank page, or it'll
present your typical "You are downloading the file: blah blah blah... would
you like to open the file or save it to your computer?" dialog box. However,
the 'open' option of the dialog box will be grayed out, and clicking Save
yields an error message reading "Internet Explorer can notnot download
<location> from <host>. Internet explorer was not able to open this Internet
Site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please
try again later."
Like I said, it seems to be the "No-store" part of a cache-control header
that causes the problem. Change the caching options for sessions from
nocache to private fixes this, but happens to break other things on the
site. Sending my own cache-control headers with header() either merges them
with the ones the session_start sends, or does absolutely nothing (verified
by doing a GET /url HTTP/1.0 via telnet to port 80), regardless of whether
the header occurs before or after the session_start.
-- Daniel Grace
P.S. The PDF documents are generated using Wayne Munro's cpdf and cezpdf
classes, located at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdf-php/.; They do not
require clibpdf or pdflib and are public-domain, so there are no licensing
fees involved...

Ok - the scenario:
I have a box that I lease... I have root privs, so I can do almost anything
I want to it. Almost being the key word. Unfortunately, any time I try to
upgrade a base library, I snafu the thing, and the datacenter has to rebuild
the libraries.
Right now, I've got php4.0.4pl1 to compile with a jurry rigged GD 1.8.4...
It's patched to disable freetype, and jpeg and png... since the version of
the GD libraries that are installed only support GIF -- and as I mention, if
I try to install new ones, the machine fubars...
My Question:
Has anyone been able to (or can anyone suggest a means to) build PHP (I'm
going to move up to v4.1.2) with a statically linked GD that has all the
bells and whistles?

*thought* I'd heard some rumblings of some of the PHP team looking to
address the issue of allowing PHP more access to the Apache request
cycle. I think there's 7 stages, and PHP is only hooked in to one
stage, IIRC.
Maybe it was Rasmus in a recent interview who suggested there might be
tighter integration with Apache, I don't know. Perhaps this is also
something for Apache 2, down the road,

I think you'll have to use url rewriting for this. Not as tight
integration as mod_perl, but if you have to use it, that's probably your
only option at this point.
Good luck!

Yes, I started this work and was hoping there would be more interest out
there. If you look at the apache_hooks CVS branch you will see the code
needed to register a PHP script to handle the url translation request
stage. Each of the other stages would be implemented the same way.

The way I see it, there are three options for maintaining state in php.
I've already taken the route of keeping a random session id and putting it
into a database to track a user/cart. So the only variable i need to track
is the session id. The three options I know of then are:
1. Putting the session id in the url
2. Putting the session id into a cookie
3. Putting the session id into a hidden input type and have every button be
a form
Option 3 sucks asthetically and coding wise. Option 1 is somewhat ugly
because now you have a big ole session id in your url (plus I don't think
search engines like these). Also, with option 1 you need to have a <?php
echo "?session_id=$session_id" ?> type line in every href which is a pain in
the ass. Option 2 is great, if the user uses cookies, if not, you cannot
track the user at all. Anyone have the perfect solution?
Thanks.

I just developed a new site and some of the users that I have go to visit the site are
prompted (under IE only) to download a language pack..... Not sure why and to top all
of that, the language pack it prompts them to download is blank.... Meaning the prompt
doesnt say what language pack.
So if the user downloads it, the page comes up, if not the page is blank (although the
source is there when they view it). Sound familiar to anyone? got any ideas what to
change/check?
Thanks!

You must start session implicitly or explicitly. I suggest to start
session explicitly. Do not use auto start.
