I'm wanting to make a simple PHP script that converts Celsius to Farenheit, Farenheit to Celsius, Farenheit to Kelvin, and Celsius to Kelvin. I have the formula but it requires fractions. How can I use frations in PHP to multiply or divide? If you can't, how could I substitute doing so? 5/9 (F - 32) is the forumla to get Celsius to Farenheit if you need it.

Thanks,

Supposing you want to display the numbers as decimal values:

$celsius = ($farenheit - 32) * 5 / 9;

Unless, of course, I did not understand your question properly.

Well, seeing as you're in the 7th or 8th grade (at least according to your
Website) - my sincere apologies ...

Just use 5.0/9.0 in your formula.

9/5 and 5/9 would be a repeating deicmal. I find fractions would be easier to multiply 
then a repeating deicmal. That's why I asked how to use fractions...

OK - I got the rasmail codes from Zend.com's code library.  it is working
perfectly for my application except for one problem.  the email I am using
to send has a .pdf file attachment.

I can open that PDF file up directly from the site after it is created,
but

I cannot open the file attachment up.  it seems the coding is wrong of
something like that so that the attachment is getting corrupted.

I have emailed the author for assistance, but haven't receive a response.

Only writing is an issue.  PHP 4.3's bundled GD2 library supports
gif-reads.  And the patent actually expires in 2003 so we'll be able to
roll in gif-writes next year.

Hi,
If your register_globals is off then you will need to use
$_GETand $_POST  to get the data from the form.

echo $_POST['Name'];

OK...

I'm using base64_encode to encode a file on the linux side.  however,
outlook express does not seem to unencode the file properly.  I'm wondering
how to work around this problem.

Hi,

I'm using php 4.2.3 with courier-imap, when I run the function
imap_fetchstructure the return for 'type' and 'subtype' variables are always
text/plain even when the content type says multipart/mixed, text/html, etc...
The same happends with the 'parts' array, empty all the time.
I tried diferent php, from 4.1.0 to 4.2.3.
I'm running apache 1.3.27.

This is an example of the returning values after an imap_fetchstructure with a
multipart/related content type:
----------------------
type = 0
subtype = PLAIN
ifsubtype = 1
encoding = 1
parts =

imap_fetchheader:
CONTENT-TYPE: MULTIPART/RELATED; BOUNDARY="----
=_NEXTPART_94915C5ABAF209EF376268C8"
-----------------------

Any ideas ?
Thanks!

Dear all

I'm trying to create a search function that can check the current day in a calendar 
against a mysql database where there is a startdate and enddate and if the date is 
there then colour code the cell in the calendar.

I have tried to use the following command

$eventQuery = "SELECT title FROM prestigecal WHERE '$sql_currentday' BETWEEN startdate 
AND enddate;";

The database has an ID - title - startdate - enddate

This seems to work BUT if the date in the database is a single number i.e. 0 to 9 it 
cannot dispaly it and also if the startdate or endate is a 10, 20 or 30 it also thinks 
that it is a 1, 2or 3

Just in case it helps the full codede for this section is as follows :

/snip
$sql_currentday = "$year-$month-$zz";
$eventQuery = "SELECT title FROM prestigecal WHERE '$sql_currentday' BETWEEN startdate 
AND enddate;";
$eventExec = mysql_query($eventQuery);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($eventExec)) {
if (strlen($row["title"]) > 0) {
echo "<td bgcolor=\"red\" valign=\"middle\" align=\"center\"><font size=\"1px\" 
face=\"Verdana\">$zz</font></td>\n";
$result_found = 1;
/snip


Thanks for any advice.

This is how i deal with dates...

$date   = date in the database.
$today  = strtotime( gmdate( "Y-m-d" ) );
$spd    = 60 * 60 * 24;                         // seconds per day
$fdate  = strtotime( substr( $date, 0, 10 ) );
$future = ( $fdate - $today ) / $spd;

do the comparision with $future and it should work for yeah...

Basically, I convert it all to seconds and do the math...

Hello,

I've managed to get a series of javascripts to work exactly as I wanted.
They check all and uncheck all checkboxes with a single click of a control checkbox.

Unfortunately, the information has to be sent to php.  As soon as I add the [] 
brackets to
an input name, the javascript no longer functions.  I'll look up a javascript mailing 
list next,
but I figured there must be some other way to get php to recieve the data and convert 
it
to an array.

Does anyone have an idea how I can make the php script gather all the multiple
&browser=lynx&browser=mosaic&browser=explorer
instead of only the last entry?

Thanks for any help,


Keith

Hi Keith:

Unfortunately, the information has to be sent to php. As soon as I add the [] brackets to
an input name, the javascript no longer functions. I'll look up a javascript mailing list next,
but I figured there must be some other way to get php to recieve the data and convert it
to an array.

If your checkboxes all have the same name i.e. group, then for php to see them, you have to name them group[].
Then you can use something like this to get them out of the array:

if (count($group) > 0){
for($i=0; $i < count($group); $i++) {
$sql = "INSERT INTO groupImage VALUES ";
$sql .= "(0, '$imageID', '$group[$i]')";
mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
//echo "linked \"$imageName\" to groupID=".$group[$i]." in gi table<br>";
}
}
you might have to change the js.
If you are accessing form elements in js then you can use something like:
forms.elements['group[]']
to access the js checkbox array by name.

Does anyone have an idea how I can make the php script gather all the multiple
&browser=lynx&browser=mosaic&browser=explorer
instead of only the last entry?
AFAIK varName[] is the only way to go if you want the checkboxes in an array.

I suppose you could just give a unique name to each checkbox.
I believe that PHP will have a value for those checkboxes that are checked.
Then you could loop through your set of checkbox vars and see which have a value.

--- Begin Message --- Put the brackets for php...

<input type="whatever" name="myname[]" value="somevalue">

Now, to loop through the elements in JavaScript, you're going to have to do something like this....

var test = false;
for ( i = 0; i < document.forms[0].elements['myname[]'].length; i++ )
//code for whatever you want to do here
//if you want to check if at least one of the boxes are checked
if ( document.forms[0].elements['myname[]'][i].checked ) {
test = true;
}
}

then you can just check to see if "test" is true or false...true if at least on box has been checked, false if none of the boxes have been checked.

This setting can potentially make a difference. BTW, where possible, please 
use copy and paste. "magic_qoutes_gpc" should be "magic_quotes_gpc". 
Introducing spurious typos into does not help in diagnosing anybody's 
problems.

Why don't you say exactly _what_ problems you're having?

If you wait a few more days, I'll upload the new version that deals with that. It is done but I need to update the documentation as well for a new feature regarding checkbox validated that had requests for.

I need to make a search engine for my site. Instead of making a table with all the words of my content of my reviews, I need to make it simple. How could you search a table of articles (let's say game_reviews) by comparing keywords the user types in, to the text of the article? All the tutorials I can find make a table with a list of words of every single keyword...

Well, if you're using a database, say MySQL, you can look at FREETEXT
indexes and queries. If you want to index your web pages, you should be
looking at a search engine that works with your web server. For example,
ht:dig (http://www.htdig.org/) works with Apache.

Ok, then you can use FULLTEXT queries.

Take a look here:

Hello,

Extreme newbie here (halfway through my first book :) ).  I need to open a
file, read the whole file into a variable, manipulate it, and then echo it
to the screen.  I'm doing it right from my book and it's not working.
Here's what I have now:

<? $header = fopen("header.html","r");

echo $header; ?>

It writes "Resource id #1" at the top of the page.  What is that?!  :)

I have also tried using file().  That displays "Array" on the screen.  What
am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Troy

Check the manual:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php

You're echoing the result of fopen() which is an "int"--you have to make
sure that you're using the function properly ;)

> I have also tried using file().  That displays "Array" on the screen.
What
> am I doing wrong?

I think it's because you're echoing the result of file() which is an array.
You cannot just "echo $the_array;" Try print_r($the_array) and you'll see a
different result--though I doubt it's the one you want to see :)

Check the manual again:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file.php

Anyway, I think you're looking for something like this:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-get-contents.php

Esp. the "User Contributed Notes".

This appears to be a register globals problem....

replace "switch($select)" with "switch($_GET['select'])".

For information on register globals and why it has been turned off in later
releases see this pagee:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.registerglobals.php

There is nothing syntactically wrong with the switch statment you are just
refering to an non-existant variable... I imaginge this came from an
outdated book or tutorial.
