[PHP] Help needed developing Logic!

[Thomas Edison Jr.]

Hi,

I've made a PHP Chatroom and i need help developing
the logic behind the "Private Chat" feature.
I'll first explain briefly how my chat works. 
It's a very very simple Chat using just DB and nothing
else. 

User enters.. his name,date goes into Chat.
QueryString passes his name to main area from where he
can post messages with the name as the main link
between his messages & database. 
You can view it at 
http://www.mjimm.com/index.php3?page=chat/mjchat.html

Please choose "PHP Chat" from above link.

Anyway, now i need to develop a system where one can
private chat with a user. So that by selecting the
User's name, when the person sends a message.. it is
displayed only on the Selected User's chat.. and not
anyone else.. or perhaps some other way. 

Can anyone help?
Ask me any question if you wish to clarify further how
my chat works!!

Cheers & Glory,
T. Edison jr.

[PHP] UDP Sockets (networking)

[Blaster]

Hi,

I have a problem with UDP sockets in PHP. What I want to do is the 
following, i send a UDP message
to a server, and a reply should come instantly back. Now, the length of the 
message returned to me
is unknown. It can be anywhere from 1 to 8192 (or more) bytes. However, 
some strange problems
arise when i try to do this.

I first open a udp socket to my server. The socket handle is valid, and I 
send off my message.
(my socket is now in blockingmode, opened by fsockopen).

A message is returned to me and I receive one byte at the time in a loop. 
The receive procedure I
use is "fgetc". It states in the manual that this function retrieves 1 
byte, if the file pointer is at the
end of the stream, it should return false.

This is my code so far:
$query_handle = fsockopen("udp://$host", $port, &$errno, &$errstr, $timeout);
$request = "mymsg";
$databuffer = "";

if ($query_handle) {
  fwrite($query_handle, $request);
  $do = true;

   while ($do) {
$tempdata = fgetc($query_handle);
if (!$tempdata) {
 $do = false;
} else {
 $databuffer .= $tempdata;
}
   }

  echo("Received " . strlen($databuffer) . " bytes of data.");
  fclose($query_handle);
} else {
  echo "Invalid socket handle - $errstr.\n";
}

Now, the fgetc doesn't seem to return false. Ever? Instead it sits there 
and waits for another byte, but since
there is no more data, my script sits here until the script times out (30 sec).



In short,
How can I get the number of bytes waiting for me in the socket buffer (so I 
can use fread to get all in one)
OR
How can I set a timeout for fgetc? For example, it should wait for a char 
for x seconds.



Please help. I'm getting extremly frustrated about this now!

I've tried fread($mysockhandle, 8192) to receive all data but it doesn't 
work either. It seems like
fread also waits until 8192 bytes is in the buffer, THEN returns. But since 
i cannot assume the
message is a constant size, this is no good for me.

Re: [PHP] Is Freetype needed for Gd? Or just truetype fonts?

[Michael A. Peters]

Hi.
If you are going to be doing text stuff with gd- you definately want
FreeType.
You want t1lib as well.

I'm not positive, but I think your gd library needs to be compiled against
FreeType.

Here is the part of my configure script for gd-

   --with-gd=/usr/local \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local \
--with-png-dir=/usr/local \
--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local \
--with-t1lib=/usr/local \

my gd library is compiled against libpng, libjpeg, and freetype.
It is not compiled against t1lib but adding t1lib in the configure script
gives me t1lib in my php gd.

RE: [PHP] MySQL function in a Table's Column

[Webmaster M&B Trading Co., SA de CV]

Look Pared, basically, if you want to do that, is done in the program
portion of it through variables, that way every time it reads the data,
it calculates the output. If you do the math, and then save it to the
record, it might not be accurate at all times. I'm of course not an
expert, so I will await input from someone else, but I suggest you read
about variables, and math processes in the Handbook.

Plus, if you change the pricing, you don't need to recalculate your
whole inventory value, cause it is always accurate.

As I said, look in the variables, and add it to the program portion of
it.

No, you can't do that, you store the raw data, and do the math when you
retrieve it.  It's bad database design to store summary data (i.e. a
total
order amount vs calculating from detail lines), or data that can be
derived
within a row itself by caclulating from other fields.  The reasons are
basically that it wastes space in the db, and that the calculated values
become out of balance (and require cleanup programs/scripts to realign
them).  Sometimes one must store this type of info for efficiency
purposes,
and in those cases, the value is calculated (by you) and then stored in
the
db; but it should be avoided as much as possible because of the db
integrity
issue noted above.

In a spreadsheet it's different, right, the value isn't stored, it's
calculated when the sheet is modified.  That's what you need to do.
Retrieve
the row, calculate the value in the script, and display it.  It looks to
the
end-user like it was in the db, but only the basic info is there, such
as
qty, and unit price.  The extended price is calculated on demand as
needed
from those two basic entities.

[PHP] MySQL function in a Table's Column

[Jared Howard]

I'm not really sure what I should be looking for in the MySQL manual.  I
basically want to make a column that will do math to other columns, like in
a spreadsheet program.  Is it possible?  And if so, what do I look for?
And if you can give me an example that would be great.

Re: [PHP] pipe email to php?

[Michael Geier]

The real question is why?  What is the purpose of piping the email to a
PHP script?

Are you trying to insert emails into a database?
Are you trying to deal with emails automatically based on subject?
Are you trying to deal with emails from a specific source?

The answers to these questions will change how a PHP script deals with the
input.

Also, you are piping the information to php://stdin and using fgetc() to
grab the data, correct?

[PHP] Stripping Unwanted Characters

[Robert Miller]

I'm posting this (see below) for two reasons: 1. so that others may benefit, and 2. to 
invite feedback on my code (PHP is the first language I have learned... and I've only 
been doing this for a week or so).

Cheers, Rob

P.S. Has anyone found a good way to parse variables to validate specific formats? For 
example: Canadian postal codes (ZIP codes) are like A1A-1A1. Driver's Licences are 
A123456789.


Problem:
Unwanted characters are often added by users of web based forms. This causes problems 
when storing the data, especially given the constraints of a database such as MySQL.

Solution:
Evaluate each variable, character by character, and (if true) add it to a new variable 
which may be used.

Re: [PHP] pipe email to php?

[John S. Huggins]

The forum PHP program package Phorum has something like this available.  I
believe it is a file called phorummail.php.

I remember using it as a basis for another program and it really does a
good job of indentifying and splitting headers and body of emails into
assorted variables.

Hello. What I mean is, I want to manipulate images
that exist, and those that I create

To use truetype fonts so the default font text
is not all that's required, but more importantly
I want to do all the stuff gd/php can do

so, I wonder if *just* having true type font support
is enough, or is freetype so special, I must get that
with libpng/gd and the rest?

IN order to make/modify images, text on those images
specifically. I am just confused that's all

Thanks for your time

Joel

my gd library is compiled against libpng, libjpeg, and freetype.
It is not compiled against t1lib but adding t1lib in the configure script
gives me t1lib in my php gd.

Can anyone help me with translating the following (which was
written in something else):
[NOTE: I've simplified the code for this purpose]


pairs = {{"First Name", "first_name"},{"Address", "address"}};

while (data) {
  line = split($data, " ");
  for pair in (pairs) {
if (match(line[1], pair[1])) {
  pair[2] = line[2];
}
  }
}


The idea here is that 'pairs' contains a list of items that the
program uses, by matching the first item with 'data', and if it matches,
it sets the second item with whatever 'data' is passing.  With the above
code, if 'data' was something like "First Name:   John" (yes, with
the spaces before the name), the result will basically set first_name to
"John".  And that variable 'first_name' can be used elsewhere in the
code.  When the 'data' contains 'Address' in it, it'll set the variable
'address' to whatever the second value is in data.

The code itself contains a rather large set in 'pairs' that it goes
through while there's 'data' for it to parse.  However, as you can see,
the code is also rather poorly written in that it cycles through the
entire list in 'pairs' for every single line of 'data' there is.  (this
is why I'm trying to rewrite this whole beast into PHP and hopefully get
something better).

The data that comes flowing in looks like this:

First Name:John
Last Name: Doe
Address:   12345 Fairy Lane
Address:
City:  White Clouds
State/Province:Cloud 9
Country:   Heaven
etc.
etc. (there is more information that I need to capture after this)

Re: [PHP] php->html

[Jim Lucas]

checkout the output control function at php.net

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.outcontrol.php

they allow you to capture the test that would have normally been sent to the
browser.

take the value of the variable and write it to a file..  :)

[PHP] Using zip files

[Emiliano Marmonti]

Hi people,
 
    I´m looking for alternatives in 
using zip files. Our users should upload into our server zipped files and we 
need to unzip this files and process it. I have read there is a library that 
could be used like an extension, but I´ve tried to use it from NT and don´t 
seems like the extension was added and when I try to use the commands PHP says 
that don´t recognoice the commands. In the other hand somebody has told me that 
PHP must be recompiled for using this library. Our platform is Windows NT but in 
the future could be Solaris.
 
    Anybody could send me your 
experience?
 
    Thanks in advance.
    
Emiliano.

[PHP] Can php do this?

[Joelmon2001]

Thanks for your time . *This* = create follow up autoresponders
Or at least have php run with cron, so I can daily hit a mysql
db and use php to email those people at a specified time, like
every 3 days. Just so when I have users to the site who register
and their name/email is in a table "users" in db "data", 
php/cron can be used to pull the name/email from mysql
and (with unsubscribe message at bottom) email them when I 
say to do so in cron. Getting cron by itself to work is fine
but with php script that connects to mysql and emails users?
Can that be done?

Sort of like cron doing what you would do if you visited
page.php and once it's hit, it emails specified users in a database
Would I need path to php in the cron script to do this?
Or am I just living a dream?

The idea of emailing users in a mysql db with php script
every day is very appealing to me. (Yes, with unsubscribe feature)
;)

Thanks, I hope to goodness this made sense and you
enjoyed your holiday

Re: [PHP] Hour Calculation

[Philip Olson]

Calm down grasshopper, everything will be okay :)  Is there a way you can
modify 'start' and 'end' times as more 'standard' time strings?  In
otherwords, how exactly are they created?  I ask because it would be nice
to get strtotime() to work here.  Or optimally, steps #1-2 would already
involve unix timestamps.  A hack can be created but let's try to avoid
that :)

Philip Olson

[PHP] Free Software--EasyType 1.2 Basic makes you type as fast you think

[Slimsoft]

   EasyType 1.2 Basic

EasyType increases your typing speed in ANY Windows editor. It takes you from
the age of inputting words letter by letter to the age of inputting
word-by-word and phrase-by-phrase. EasyType has three major functions: (1)
Auto-learning words and phrases 2) auto-completing words and phrases, and (3)
Auto-expanding shorthands into full text. 

EasyType prompts the best-matched words to the user with a fully optimized
prediction algorithm. Just press a single hot key to auto-complete the word
you want. EasyType also expands its knowledge by learning new words that you
have typed. In contrast, shorthand expansion is based on targeting. For
example, type 'syl' and EasyType will expand it into 'See you later'.
Shorthand expansion is made more flexible with parameters, which are highly
useful for code auto-generation. You can even include special cursor controls
to make the expanded text well formatted. 

Many libraries are provided to empower EasyType. International language
libraries make it easy to input non-English words on any keyboard.
Programming language libraries liberate programmers from the pain of typing
long identifiers. Everyone can find libraries suitable for their own needs.
You can create your own library from word list files or learn frequently used
words from a large number of text documents with just one click. EasyType is
ideal for users who must deal with a heavy load of typing everyday, such as
programmers, writers, lawyers, translators, secretaries, and medical clerks.

folders and all files, IE favourite web pages, predefined email contacts by
selecting with mouse from drop-down lists. Much simpler than to direct
operation in windows explorer and IE. 

It supports 16 clipboards in total, with one current clipboard and 15 history
clipboards. Whenever you copy, EasyClip will automatically push the existing
content of the windows clipboard into the history clipboard boards and then
copy the text into the current buffer. You can select any one of the
clipboards by mouse and EasyClip will automatically paste the content of the
selected clipboard into the window you are working with. It also supports
appending-mode copy which will keep appending copied text to the end of the
current clipboard. This is convenient for  combining small pieces of text
from different places.

It also support a quick-run dialog where you can input short aliases for long
paths and URL's like in UNIX. Aliases can be defined in a text file with one
alias corresponding to one path/URL.

Calm down grasshopper, everything will be okay :)  Is there a way you can
modify 'start' and 'end' times as more 'standard' time strings?  In
otherwords, how exactly are they created?  I ask because it would be nice
to get strtotime() to work here.  Or optimally, steps #1-2 would already
involve unix timestamps.  A hack can be created but let's try to avoid
that :)

regards,
Philip Olson

I've got a huge table that I'm trying to get information about. I use a 
MySQL database, and the windows telnet utility to access it. To see info 
about the table, the DESCRIBE command is used. However, since it's about 40 
fields, it doesn't fit on the screen, so the top half just zips by in a 
millisecond.

Is there any break command, something to show one screen of info, read key, 
and then show another screen, for the DESCRIBE command?

Or just any other way to see the information...

Thanks.

Hi people,
 
    I´m looking for alternatives in 
using zip files. Our users should upload into our server zipped files and we 
need to unzip this files and process it. I have read there is a library that 
could be used like an extension, but I´ve tried to use it from NT and don´t 
seems like the extension was added and when I try to use the commands PHP says 
that don´t recognoice the commands. In the other hand somebody has told me that 
PHP must be recompiled for using this library. Our platform is Windows NT but in 
the future could be Solaris.
 
    Anybody could send me your 
experience?
 
    Thanks in advance.
    
Emiliano.

It sure can.  There's a couple of ways to accomplish this.  I personally 
think the easiest way is to code your page like normal, then call it in a 
cron job via lynx.  Let's say you have a page called "page.php" that 
connects to your database, retrieves the email addresses, and sends the 
emails.  To call it from a cron job add the following to your crontab:

0 8 * * * /usr/bin/lynx -dump http://localhost/page.php > 
/path/to/logfile/or/dev/null

Of course this means your script is in your public web space, so 
theoretically could be called by anyone who knew the name of the page.  You 
could put the page in a subdirectory and add an .htaccess file that 
restricts access to only 127.0.0.1 to take care of that if it concerns you.

If you have PHP installed as a CGI then you could also write your page as a 
shell script.  As the first line of your script put the line:

#! -q

I haven't personally used this method because I have PHP installed as an 
apache module and I was too lazy to compile the CGI version.  Using lynx in 
the above configuration works fine for me...

Re: [PHP] Can php do this?

[Michael A. Peters]

If you have built the php standalone binary then its easy-

#!/usr/local/bin/php


What I do when I build php is build it twice. First I build it with all my
options EXCEPT for with-apxs=/blah
That builds the standalone binary, and I install that in /usr/local/bin

Then, I build the apache module and install that where my apache modules
go.
This allows me to use php as a regular unix scripting language, so I can
do stuff from the crontab.

btw- I'm actually doing a very similar thing-
I have some customer support software that pops my support e-mail address
and puts the message in a MySQL database.

I have a cron job that calls a php shell script that pops the e-mail for
me every 15 minutes.
That way I don't have to log on to the support application as often, and
the customers get an automated response fairly quickly, giving them a
unique case ID etc.

[PHP] Creating $key, $value pairs

[Ashley M. Kirchner]

I need to "convert" the following:

---
  Todays Date:  20-Nov-2001 10:58:24AM
  Order ID: W25
  Customer Email:   [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  Email Promotions: Ok

  BILL TO:
  Business Name:
  Contact Name: Ashley M. Kirchner
  Day Number:   800 555-1212
  Evening Number:   303 555-1212
  Fax Number:
  Address:  3550 Arapahoe Ave #6
  Address:
  Address:

  State/Province:   CO
  Zip/Postal Code:  80303

  Card Number:  991234
  Expiration Date:  01/71

  Shipping Method:  PICKUP
  Order Comment:
  Gift Message:
  Shipping
  Instruction:
---

...into $key, $value pairs.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to name/use my own names 
for $key so I can end up with something like:

$BillToContact  => 'Ashley M. Kirchner'
$BillToDayPhone => '800 555-1212'
$BillToEvePhone => '303 555-1212'
etc.
(or maybe with something like:
  $bill['contact']  => 'Ashley M. Kirchner'
  $bill['dayphone'] => '800 555-1212'
  $bill['evephone'] => '303 555-1212'
  etc.)

All of these variables will eventually be shoved into a DB once the entire form 
has been parsed.

And then, at the bottom of that same (submitted) form, there's the actual 
information on the order, which looks something like this (the spacing is slightly 
different):

(unfortunately, this will wrap rather ugly)
---
  ORDER NO.  QTY  UNIT   DESCRIPTIONPRICE   TOTAL
  4x614"x6"  Standard Print (full-frame from 35mm).75   $0.75
  4x614"x6"  Standard Print (full-frame from 35mm).75   $0.75
  5x7.5  15x7.5  Image:Uploaded Image 3  4.25   $4.25
  8x12   18x12   Classic Full Frame Image:Uploaded Image 4  10.25  $10.25

 SUBTOTAL: $16.00
  TAX:  $1.18
 SHIPPING:  $0.00
TOTAL: $17.18
---


This part again I'd like to break up into separate lines, and separate variables 
for the product no., the quantity, unit, decription, price, total (per line), then the 
subtotal, tax, shipping cost and final (grant) total.

Again, if I can somehow use my own variable names, that'd be great.

($product['no']
 $product['quantity']
 $product['unit']
 etc.
 $order['subtotal']
 $order['tax']
 $order['shipping']
 $order['total']
 etc.)

I don't know yet how to create different entries for each line in that order - 
kinda stupid to create $product_1['no'], $product_2['no'], $product_3['no'], 
$product_4['no'], but then again, I don't know.

Nice tip!  Another alternative is using wget on the URL, or links -dump if 
you have that instead.

Or if your script has #!/usr/bin/php or whatever path at the top and is made 
executable, you can just call that script without relying on the webserver.

I think, even if it's just a normal php file you could cron it as 
/usr/bin/php .

Re: [PHP] Can php do this?

[Joelmon2001]

Thanks guys

I just want to confirm one last thing, as it's been a while since I needed 
cron

After I create this file (cron.file) for ex
and use 
crontab cronfile (I do this as root, if it matters)
do permissions need to be set? I really can't recall
I would think that would do it as I am not uploading it
and do it as root 

Thanks for the help, GREAT help and it's appreciated

Now I just need to get freetype 2 installed right on my raq 3
and I can live like a king
