AllowOverride is set to All in apache, and when I put this in a
.htaccess file, it changes the value:
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value upload_max_filesize "7500000"
</IfModule>
however, when I put "php_value browscap "/home/user/php/browscap.ini" in
there, it doesn't change the setting.
Is browscap not changeable from .htaccess, or am I doing something
wrong? Thanks for the help!

What amount of chars is reasonable and should I allow for each of the
following fields in a database:
company name: 30 chars
address/street: 30 chars
city: 30 chars
???? Thanks.
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
I'm no expert on MySQL field types, but I'd be going for a varchar field of
50-ish (maybe more???)... the reason is that (from what I understand)
varchar fields only take up as much room as the content, plus one or two
bytes, so making them 50 vs 30 will offer no advantage, but may become a
disadvantage down the track.
It'd be worth checking the MySQL manual though.

I need to count how many times the word AVAILABLE appears in a string
like this
$string ="AVAILABLE More Info AVAILABLE More Info";
some time the string looks like this
$string ="UNAVAILABLE More Info AVAILABLE More Info";
or
$string ="AVAILABLE More Info UNAVAILABLE More Info";
when I use
$srch="AVAILABLE";
$count=substr_count(strtolower($string), strtolower($srch));
echo $count;
it puts the count a 2 even when one of the words is UNAVAILABLE
how can I make it only count AVAILABLE and not UNAVAILABLE or visa
verse

if this is your SPECIFIC problem, putting a space at the beginning of $srch
will help, eliminating XAVAILABLE... but this will cause a problem with the
word AVAILABLE appearing at the start of the string, so temporarily put a
space at the start of the string:
<?
// UNTESTED
$count = substr_count(' '.strtolower($string), strtolower(' '.$srch));
echo $count;
?>
this won't help if there are newlines and other white space instead of
spaces, and won't help (so far) for a different set of circumstances...
it would be nice to extend substr_count() could be extended to have an
option.

Hello Justin,
That worked perfect but I have one more problem I need to know if one
of the word is UNAVAILABLE I need to know if it is the first one or
the second one. I don't know if there is any way to do this.
1st 2nd
$string ="UNAVAILABLE AVAILABLE More Info";
1st 2nd
$string ="AVAILABLE More Info UNAVAILABLE ";

turn register globals ON on php.ini (they now default to off), then read the
1000's of threads about register globals, missing/empty form variables,
super global arrays, etc etc in the archives.
post vars are found in $_POST, session in $_SESSION, get in $_GET, etc etc

If you want to make the script compatible both with register globals=off
and work with old AND new PHP versions, use $HTTP_POST_VARS and
$HTTP_GET_VARS. Manual says they are deprecated, but there is no reason to
presume they are removed from PHP any time soon. And if that day comes it's
a few minutes task to search and replace all sources to convert them to
$_GET and $_POST.
For commonly used $PHP_SELF I use this:
if (isset($_SERVER)) $PHP_SELF = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$scriptname = basename($PHP_SELF);
This way users don't have to select from two source versions, one > PHP
4.1.0 and one < 4.1.0.

Hi Erwin,
and anyone else too.
It's me again. Maybe you are able to solve another problem for me.
The last Scriptcode I returned to you is working fine in IE6 and below
(I believe), but a friend of mine tried to download a tared file with IE
on MacOS. After checking this behaviour (I'm not really able to do a
real check, because I'm not really able to understand what really
happens with theese mime-types), I thought about to check it in
Netscape too, and later Mozilla in Mac and Win, but it worked
nowhere else than in IE 6 until now. In Netscape the download
starts and a 10 KB file is safed to disk called download.php. In
Mozilla the download starts and a file named picture_name.tar.php
is safed. Size 10KB. The main picture Size is still 406 KB, packed
as a Tar File it's 410 KB.
Thats the problem I need a solvation for.
I read something about theese headers on php.net. There was
an workaround for the circumstace that the download would not
start in IE but not in the other direction.
So please, if you know some more, please share it with me.
There are only two days left, to finish my project. So I'm really
in trouble. After this projekt I will step up and start learning Linux
and Apache configuration to the fullest.
So later I maybe will be an helpfull guy too.
Greetz
Sascha
PS.: Just for remembrance, the old working samplecode:
<!-- download.php -->
<?
Header('Content-Type: application/x-tar');
Header("Content-disposition: filename=".$_REQUEST['name'].".tar");
$dir = explode("/", $_REQUEST['image']);
chdir('../images/'.$dir['0']."/".$dir['1']."/".$dir['2']."/");
$command = 'tar -cf - '.$_REQUEST['name'].'.jpg';
passthru($command);
// Insert the download into order_db for statistic use
include('global.inc.php');
$Query = "INSERT INTO order_db (id, user_id, image_id, date, time) ";
$Query .= "VALUES
('','".$_REQUEST['customer_id']."','".$_REQUEST['image_id']."','".date('Y-m-d')."','".date('H:i:s')."')";
mysql_query($Query, $connect);
?>

Must be a register globals problem again - php.ini (register_globals) - on
for linux off for windows.
You should keep it switched off (or at least code for it being off) and use
the superglobal arrays $_POST, $_GET etc

GREAT Q!
I have been trying to play with my cookies for a while now for this same
reason..
And to no avail..
It seems due to the structure of them and as long as the client (browser)
sticks to the specifications you can only access a cookie belonging to that
same host..
For example, I am starting up a large "network" site base but I wanted all
the sites even though they have their own unique domain to be able to have a
global member login system.. Catch is.. The only way for them to be able to
login to one site and then be able to freely go to another completely diff.
site also on our network they would still be logged in and hence they have
this main ONE account that allows them access to all our network sites..
So I studied the workings behind Terra Lycos and found their trick quite
easily.. Since they have basically this same concept they too had to find a
solution..
And their's is very close to mine :) I had thought.. since it's HOST
specific. Not the full domain.. that means that cookies only differentiate
between: aaa.com and bbb.com..
But not: one.aaa.com or two.aaa.com
Therefore to create ONE cookie you set it's host for aaa.com and that way
all your other site domains can be redirectors to the subdomain..
Ie.. if you have aaa.com as your main site and bbb.com and ccc.com just make
those other two point to: bbb.aaa.com and ccc.aaa.com respectively..
Don't think it's "unpro" because that's exactly what Terra Lycos does..
For eg.. Checkout www.webmonkey.com (I'm sure many of you already know it)
you soon see you'll be transported to: www.hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey
This is because not only is webmonkey part of Terra lycos.. It's also under
HotWired..
Then I thought.. No way.. that can't be their trick surely??
Yep.. Checkout all their other sites..
More examples: www.angelfire.com goes to angelfire.lycos.com and tripod.com
goes to tripod.lycos.com
it seems this is the idea.. that way.. if they login.. just set some details
(perhaps the SESSID so you can easily jsut reload the session on the other
sites) on for example lycos.com as the domain and then all the subdomains
can also use this freely..
Use your domains as redirectors and you get a sweet system.. :)

Nope, but you can have more than one host per domain (foo.php.net,
bar.php.net, etc.).

or you just have something like
login.myhost.com
and all your sites use that to authenticate the user. In your php login
script you can just see which site they came back from and then on a
successful login you just redirect them back to that one. You wouldn't
need to use cookies. You could make your own session ID. I thik owning
say subdomain.mydomain.com and having it point to
www.asite.com/mydomain/subdomain doesn't look as good. The PHP needed to
do something like this would be fairly simple too.

Hi folks,
I just got nuts by trying to find a regexp for use with preg_replace to achive the
following:
remove all <br /> which are in the text between a <pre> and a </pre> Tag.
So, I want no br between these tags.
Any ideas or quick help?
thanks in advance,
Thomas

Hi guys,
I have 2 identical tables called "tmp_data" and "data". (on the same mysql database).
What would be the simple and more convenient way to update table "data" with a row
from table "tmp_data".
(something like select * from tmp_data and than update data ...).
Thanks a lot,
Radu

I wrote a simple script to return data from a query. The database is MS SQL
and the field I am looking to return is a VARCHAR(5000). Everything seems to
work except the data returned is not the whole field it is shortened. It
only returns a portion of the field.
Here is the field:
99 Services, Inc. is a full service IT systems integrator and general
contractor specializing in cradle to grave technology planning with strong
emphasis on LAN/WAN design (routing and switching) and deployment of high
speed, fully redundant, high availability networks. 99 Services also
provides Internet/Intranet/Website/email systems design. The company
services small to medium sized businesses as well as home offices.
Here is what is returned by the PHP:
99 Services, Inc. is a full service IT systems integrator and general
contractor specializing in cradle to grave technology planning with strong
emphasis on LAN/WAN design (routing and switching) and deployment of high
speed, fully redundant, high availab
Here is the script:
<?PHP
/* CTC Profile about Company */
/* ========================= */
$HostName = "DAS54-DAL-SBC";
$UserName = "*******"; //changed for security
$Password = "********"; //changed for security
$DBName = "DirectoryDB";
MSSQL_CONNECT($HostName,$UserName,$Password);
mssql_select_db($DBName) or DIE("Table unavailable");
$ProfileResults = MSSQL_QUERY("SELECT * FROM CompanyProfile WHERE
CompanyID = '$ID'");
$RowCount = MSSQL_NUM_ROWS($ProfileResults);
if($RowCount != 0) {
for ($i = 0; $Field2 = MSSQL_FETCH_ARRAY($ProfileResults); ++$i) {
$Profile = $Field2["Profile"];
echo $Field2["CompanyID"] . "<br>" . $Field2["Profile"] .
"<br><br>To read more information about this ";
echo "company, visit their website\n";
}
}
else { print "This company, $sym is not listed in the CTC Directory."; }
MSSQL_CLOSE();
?>

Hello,
...just wondering...
Are you sure VARCHAR in MS SQL can handle 5000? Should be 255 only? (I'm not
really familiar with MS SQL but you can count the number of characters
returned by php...)

Thanks for some help. I will look into that. This is not my database so I am
not sure how or why it was setup this way. There is more than 255 characters
in each of these fields.

On thing you could do is output <pre>tags around the text you want to
display. The <pre><> tags keeps simple formatting like tabs and new line
characters.

Greetings folks.
I need my carriage returns to show up in my HTML output from my text form
field.
There is a JavaScript function that will convert carriage return to <BR>
tags, but is there a PHP function that will add <BR> or <P> tags to a text
form field in place of the carriage returns a user might add.
Thanks in advance!

Can you fake IP addresses and referer addresses with the PHP header command.
I want to contact a remote php script and not have my page as the referer or
ip address. Is this possible with sockets or even just fopen()?

Hi, I want to export some fields on a regular basis from a table to a text
file, preferable to the users local computer. I tried writing to a file with
fopen but I get "permission denied" when I try to open it for writing.
What is the best solution?
Thanks,

Hi all..
Got this script to verify a login against a mysql-databas with several
checking for type errors etc.
When I wanna login people, I include a file with all my functions
('functions.php') and I a function verify is called upon.
the function returns false if user entered wrong user/pass, And if they
enter correct info I want them to be redirected to another page.. hm. the
headers cant be added (u heard that before?) cuz my login form already
started output...
function verify($user,$pass){
// some sql queries here...
if(count($number)>0){
return false;
}else{
header("Location:admin.php");
}
}
I would like som help using headers in a correct way, or be able to use
another way...

It's giving you this error because you are sending the headers after
outputting something (which could be just a blank line) - check in your
functions.php that you dont have any blank lines before the start of or
after the end of your script. ie. before the <?php or after the ?>

$keywords = $_POST[keywords];
if ($keywords) {

That line is syntactically invalid. Did you meant it to say
echo "<META NAME=$keywords CONTENT= $keywords >";

The quotes within the quotes.
Change to:
echo"<META NAME=\"keywords\" CONTENT=\" $keywords \">";

The quotes within the quotes -- you need to escape them. Otherwise, the
second double quote terminates the quoted string, yet there's some more junk
on the line. By escaping them, you tellphp you mean the literal ", and
don't want to terminate the string .
So change to:
echo"<META NAME=\"keywords\" CONTENT=\" $keywords \">";
