Check out linux web host comes with PHP and MySql
Their PHP compile is pretty nice, including GD support. Their DB is
run via phpMyAdmin.

Check out Hub.Org Networking services
http://www.hub.org
They have Virtual Machine that can be configured to your NEEDS without
affecting other clients and vice versa. and MANY other features
including ssh, ftp, cgi/perl and I believe they have also added MySQL
3.23 to the list.
Not sure if it would be what you want but they are good :)

PHP can fork but the docs say not to do it in a web server environment.
basically, it's only usable on *nix machines and in a shell scripting
environment.

Subject: [PHP] Multiple Threads?
I don’t remember the name of the module offhand, but once upon a time, I
used a perl module that would fork multiple threads so that you could
execute several web queries at the same time. This saved a lot of time,
if, for instance, you had to get information from UPS, FedEx, and the
USPS about shipping rates to display on a page. If you had to query them
one at a time, the delay would be unacceptable. However, with that perl
module, you could query them all at the same time, making it much
faster.
Does anyone know if such a thing exists for PHP?

Hello All,
IF you are using mySQL database then the php manual indicates you can run multiple
connections. Presumably you could execute several web queries at the same time, each
with its own connection. I haven't tried such, but the manual suggests it is possible:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php
"If a second call is made to mysql_connect() with the same arguments, no new link will
be established, but instead, the link identifier of the already opened link will be
returned. The new_link parameter modifies this behavior and makes mysql_connect()
always open a new link, even if mysql_connect() was called before with the same
parameters.
Note: The new_link parameter became available in PHP 4.2.0
"
Kind Regards,
Richard Creech

Won't work for web connections, because it waits for each connection to
complete before running the next one.

You could system() or shell_exec() an external program/script which
forked off 3 children to perform the queries. You would then need to
parse the script output for the data you need. system() would require
you to capture the script output via output buffering.
If you want to use a CGI version of PHP as the external program the
functions described at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pcntl.php are
what you need.
This is a very neat idea. I hope I remember this when I need it :)

What would be the best way to make a set of variables
available to all visitors?
example:
if I stick all variables in a separate file and
include - include(settings.php); - that works fine.
seems that this is a lot of overhead to include these
on every page. These variables would never change
(they basically turn an alpha string into numeric to
speed up queries.) I don't think hard coding would be
a great solution either...
simplified example:
one set of variables to be included on all pages refer
to the article type - i would like to use urls that
make sense to the visitor rather than number strings
so -
$article_type = array("news" => 1,"opinion" =>
2,"finance" => 3);
Maybe it would be best to simply query for WHERE
article_type = 'news' etc.
Thanks much,
olinux

Actually, if they are static variables that rarely or never change, I would
stick with the include file. It's faster than making a database connection
and selecting them.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this belongs to JavaScript or PHP section. I'm
running into problems when I'm trying to use php templates with embeded
JavaScript.
In my template file, I have something like...
<script language="JavaScript">
....
function Show()
{
if(layer) {
if(timer) {
clearTimeout(timer);
}
for(menu=0; menu<Layer.length; menu++) {
if(Layer[menu]) {
eval(layer).visibility = "hidden";
}
}
for(i=0; i<arguments.length; i++) {
menu=arguments[i];
eval(layer).visibility = "visible";
}
}
}
....
</script>
When I instantiate the template in my PHP file and do a view source, I
get this instead:
<script language="JavaScript">
....
function Show()
for(menu=0; menu<Layer.length; menu++)
}
for(i=0; i<arguments.length; i++)
}
}
....
</script>
As you can see, the all the 'if' statements are missing? Why is that?
Thanks,
-Peter

I am displaying a folder tree and want to alternate the colors for each
folder so my database table shows that for example the Apples folder is
located under the Fruits folder. Therefore I want to know which row is odd
or even so I can assign it different colors. Incidently, does anyone know
of a more efficient way of displaying a folder tree without doing it
recursively?
id parent_id name

1 1 Home
2 1 Products
3 2 Fruits

while ($cat = mysql_fetch_object($qid))
{
$output .= $cat->name + $indent; // here is where I want to assign diff.
colors
if ($cat->id != $parent)

If you know you're looking for Bob or Mike or John, you could select the

mysql_fetch_array(result, MYSQL_ASSOC)

Well, you don't need to know what row number is. Something like:
function build_folder_tree(&$output, $parent=1, $indent="")
{
$color = "red"; // Set var to first option
$qid = mysql_query("SELECT id, name FROM folders WHERE parent_id =
$parent");
while ($cat = mysql_fetch_object($qid))
{
$output .= $cat->name + $indent; // here is where I want to assign
diff. colors
$color == "red" ? $color = "blue": $color = "red"; // Cycle color for
each iteration
if ($cat->id != $parent)
build_folder_tree($output, $cat->id, $indent." ");
}
}

now i have come up to this: <?
print ("<a href=german$PHP_SELF>link german</a>");
?>
and this seems to work as long as i add these php tags inside html, but how
do i insert this inside my array which is in the .js format (javascript) ?
any ideas that could help me? or would you need to look at the array?
thank you.
regards
coo
Btw. excuse the question but what means HTH in the end of our reply?

You´re welcome here, if your questions related to php. If there are specific
php-windows questions, you should ask them on the windowsPHP list.

You can shorten this :
echo "<a href="'$HTTP_HOST."/german/".$PHP_self.'">German</a>';
echo "<a href="'$HTTP_HOST."/spanish/".$PHP_self.'">Espanol</a>';
but it should be enough if you use
echo "<a href="'german/".$PHP_self.'">German</a>';
assuming that this dir/page is locatet in the root of your vserver.

It should like this, but I don´t know your encironment, so I put some "/" in
hope you get it fixed
or if you want to cat these vars to a new word
$link = "german".$PHP_SELF."link german";
echo '<a href="'.$link.'">FOO</a>");

Maybe you´re mixin´up two things, where php is enough.
But as I cannot know whats in your JavaScript, I can give you only a hint.
Your JavaScript should be echoed also, To avoid conficts with java´s "'"
you should escape them and/or the " .
so it would look like
echo " some javacode \' (foo)\' ";
And as another hint "JavaScript" is client-side while PHP is serverside.
You´re just delivering a page to the clients browser.

No. Consider arrays, constants, extract(), etc.

I'm trying to get my code to print out a "sorry - no results" message if
there is no match. I've read the If statement in the PHP manual
(http://www.php.net/manual/ro/control-structures.php#control-structures.if)
and
I think my code structure may be wrong.. am I wrong to nest it this way in
the following code? If so, where should I be putting the " if $sql returns 0
records, then print.." code?
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)) {
if ($sql_result = 0) {
$option_block .= "Sorry, your search has resulted in 0 records. Please try
again. \n";
}
else {
$advocateID = $row["advocateID"];
$esc_fname = $row["FNAME"];
$esc_lname = $row["LNAME"];
$esc_firm = $row["FIRM"];
$esc_city = $row["CITY"];
$esc_province = $row["PROVINCE"];
$esc_area = $row["AREA"];
// strips out special characters before output.
$fname = stripslashes($esc_fname);
$lname = stripslashes($esc_lname);
$firm = stripslashes($esc_firm);
$city = stripslashes($esc_city);
$province = stripslashes($esc_province);
$area = stripslashes($esc_area);
$option_block .= "<li><b>Name:</b> <a
href=\"advocate_details.html?sel_advocateID=$advocateID\">$fname
$lname</a><br><b>Firm/Organization:</b> $firm<br><b>Location:</b> $city,
$province<br><b>Specialty:</b> $area<br> </li>\n";
}

Firstly, $sql_result insn't the value to check and secondly you should do
it before you start the while loop.
Do your query to the DB, then check mysql_num_rows. If it is zero, print
the error message; otherwise go into the while loop to display your
results.

Hi,
I've rewritten the code to:
// Sends the Query
$sql_result = mysql_query($sql);
if (!$sql_result) {
echo "Can't execute $sql " . mysql_error();
exit;
}
if (mysql_num_rows($sql_result) == 0) {
$option_block .= "Sorry, your search has resulted in 0 records. Please try
again. \n";
}
// organizes data in an orderly manner (ie bulleted area)
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)) {
$advocateID = $row["advocateID"];
$esc_fname = $row["FNAME"];
$esc_lname = $row["LNAME"];
$esc_firm = $row["FIRM"];
$esc_city = $row["CITY"];
$esc_province = $row["PROVINCE"];
$esc_area = $row["AREA"];
....
and it works beautifully! Thanks for pointing me to the clue!

hey ppl,
I need to create some fairly complex graphs dynamically, and I need to be
able to specify line, bar, or pie charts. Are there any PHP packages that
someone could point me to that would fill my needs. Thanks

Don't know if anyone can help me with this one:
It's not directly a PHP question -- but maybe someone knows the fix?
I have a form, when the user presses the submit button, I pass the form vars
to my PHP checkform.php script -- which checks all the fields to make sure
the user entered the correct values -- if the user missed something, then
they are passed to my error page, which lists out the fields they need
fix -- ideally, i would like them to press their browsers BACK button to
return to the form, instead of reloading all their session data back into
the form with a submit button on the error page -- too much data.
So, in Netscape, when a user presses their BACK button all the fields are
filled in just as they were filled in ... including the password field.
However, in Internet Explorer, when the user presses their BACK button, all
fields are good EXCEPT the password fields, which are bank ... so the user
is forced to reenter their password info -- kinda annoying.
Is there a HEADER or something or an IE fix anyone knows of that will force
IE not to delete the password info in this manner?
Thanks.
Jason
