First read the chapter "PDF Functions". 

Then decide on, and install one of the supported PDF libraries.

This is absolutely possible. If you decide on using the PDFlib library then I 
recommend pc4p (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pc4p/). Its a class which 
makes creating PDFs extremely easy.

Re: [PHP] Displaying array of elements problem

[hugh danaher]

first, set up the array something like:

$artist("Bon Jovi","N\'Sync","Boyzone","Britney Spears","Jethro Tull",
"Crosby\, Stills & Nash");  //  note escape slash before single quote and
comma I think they'll be needed, but maybe not.

then set up your checkbox array something like:

for ($i=0;$i<=count($artist)-1;$i++)
{
print "$artist[$i]"; // The escape slashes are important here
}
print 
print 
if (isset($submit))
{
for ($i=0;$i<=count($artist)-1;$i++)
{
if (isset($artist[$i])) print $artist[$i];
if (isset($artist[$i])) $number=$number+1;
}
print $number;
if ($number=="0") die ("go back and select something");  / / or do
something else here.
}



The above is untested especially the array set up, but the rest should give
you a hint on how to do what you want.

Re: [PHP] emulate a browser

[Frank Benady]

It works really nice, Michael, thanks again.

I have one more question, maybe you can answer me :
If the domain name has been redirected with hte permanent redirect, I
get the 301 Moved Permanently header response. But if the domain name
has been frame-forwarded, I have no header response. Is it normal ?
Do you know if there is some alternatives so I could check if the domain
name is used, even on a frame-forward type redirectection ?
Moreover, if the domain has been redirected, is it possible to get the
url it has been redirected to ?

Thanks again for your help

Frank

Re: [PHP] Need opinion On sessions - Cookies mandatory?

[DL Neil]

Entering the conversation late...

1 IP addresses
Remember these are not necessarily 'unique'. If two of us here log in, won't we appear 
(to you) have the same IP
address if we're 'hiding' behind a NAT (Network Address Translation) box? Also dial-up 
users share a pool of IP
addresses which are reallocated between customers as they disconnect/reconnect.

2 Cookies
I think someone has already made points against their use. Many corporates set 
up/require that browsers are
configured to reject all cookies (plays havoc with many shopping and banking sites). 
Obviously there is popular
advice that cookies are 'not good', because I've had a number of friends and clients 
tell me that they regularly
clear out their 'cookie jar' - and need help when they get over enthusiastic and clear 
more than they should...

There's a balance between easing life for those who are 'in', and turning off those 
trying to arrive. The trick
is finding it!

Re: [PHP] Whats the best way.

[Stefan Rusterholz]

Read this through: http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php
Consider then: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-uploaded-file.php
After that read:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php

and then do it like that:
-upload form
-check if user has uploaded a file (he could have sent an empty form)
-check what extension is needed (.jpg, .gif or whatever)
-move_uploaded_file($userfile, "Your/Directory/".time().$extension)

hope this helps

It means PHP doesn't know about that function, ie its not a built-in function 
and you haven't defined it.

I don't know what you're trying to do but maybe you mean to use phpinfo() as 
opposed to infophp()?

Hi all,


I have this huge db in FileMaker Pro format :-(

Now I need this db to make a db content based website. I know enough stuff
about MySQL to do this, but I don't know anything about converting db's.
Does anybody have any tips, or ideas how I can handle this db converting

I am able to export the filemaker pro file to -tab based- files, which I
know M$ excel can import



many regards, and thx for all the ideas.

[PHP] Using Mail Functions.

[Sidney]

Dear all,

I am a new user on php and I have read on the function of IMAP in the
php.net but they made me confuse. In ture i am not understand what is the
function and how to use them.

Have there got any resource for me to reference? I think that if there got
more example it can be more easy to understand.

In case, I want to design program which can receive mail and save to mysql
server.

I have spend so much time on this... :(

Can you give me some suggestion?

Sidney

[PHP] XML / XSLT parsing using PHP

[Lasse Laursen]

Hi,

We are about to develop a CMS that uses XML and XSLT.

The XML files contains some static information (header, footers and common
non-dynamic information). We would like to have a XML file that would
contain a field like:


  <...>
  <...>
  <...>


Before the XML file is loaded into the PHP script that uses the xslt_process
routine to convert the XML/XSLT files into plain HTML we would like to
replace the  field with come dynamic content (eg. some other
variables, etc.)

What's the easiest way to do that? SAX or?

Furthermore the 'xslt_process' function requires the following parameters:

xslt_process (resource xh, string xml, string xsl [, string result [, array
arguments [, array parameters]]])

where the XML and XSLT variables are references to files. - The XML file is
in our example a variable (eg. $current_xml_file = "x";) and therefor we
cannot use the xslt_process function? Of cause we can store the XML var. in
a temporary location and then read the file, but that's an extreamly ugly
approach! :) Any ideas?


I'm looking forward to your replies :)


Yours

Re: [PHP] Using Mail Functions.

[Ben-Nes Michael]

Never done this before but its look rather simple:

first connect to the server|
probobly with imap_open

Read the messages into some Variable/ array what ever

Upload to the MySQL server.


Small Tip:
Drom MySQL and use Postgresql

[PHP] Clear form post data

[Conrad Strydom]

um , lets say a form calls its own page , does some db operations and then
returns to its former self ,

how do you get it to not perform said db operations on refresh?

i.e the data is reposted and thus  the submit variable still appears to be
set?

Thanks

Which plattform? Mac, Win?

I had once to write an import script for mysql to import a tab-export from
FM Pro Mac. I did it this way:
-HTML-Fileupload
-Translate chars (e.g. german characters ä, ö, ü - or in HTML ä,
ö - furthermore I translated ASCII 13 to )
-Read in a loop line for line
-Split line by tab
-check if record is already in mysql database (only if you have to import
more than once)
-build mysql insert query
-done :)

If you have more questions or more detailed questions just ask
best regards

[PHP] RE: phpwiki save button

[Tim Ward]

What is it you actually want to do? Add the current date/time or a timestamp
entered on the submitting form? See date() for the former. Once you've got
your stamp in a format you want just add it to the front of the story before
saving. Give us a bit more detail about what it is that isn't working, or
the code that you want to modify.

Subject:  phpwiki save button

Hello everybody.  My name is Tim and I am new to this list.  I am
not a 
programmer and don't even play one on tv.  

I've recently installed and have started to attempt to customize
phpwiki.  I 
need to modify the way the "save" button works.  I not only need it
to do the 
save, but I would like it to append a date and time stamp to the
text being 
posted to the wiki.  My first choice would that the line of text
being typed 
would be prefixed with the stamp rather than slapping it on the end.
This I 
believe would be the most ergonomically convienient for those
reading that 
which has been posted.

Is there anybody out there willing to give me a hand.  

TIA,

Tim B.

[PHP] RE: One Line text boxes vs. Multiline text boxes

[Tim Ward]

Sounds to like you're not putting the value in quotes.
i.e.  you can get away with  you can't.
's (what I assume you are referring to as multiline text boxes)
are different as the value goes between the tabs and seems to be treated as
prefdefined text (like between  tags)

For some reason, when a user enters information into a form field
that's
only one line, it might enter the database differently than if it
was a
multiline text box.
 
Anything characters after a blank space or a comma will get deleted
if
it is entered into a single-line text box.  But if I make it a
multiline
text box, it enters all the information correctly.
 
Why is this??

I had intended that the 'institutional approach' be seen as the seeds of a viral 
marketing campaign. If students
learn the tool, when they 'go out to work' they want to use it. Even if the student is 
a 'hobbyist' then it
still spreads the 'word' around...

Your point earlier, if statistics say x million dynamic web sites are held together by 
PHP, IT managers/decision
makers tend to feel they should take notice, eg Apache and the Netcraft surveys. The 
same will apply to PHP,
numbers need to build to some 'critical mass' for corporate credibility to follow (as 
wrong as that sounds).

How to get PHP into the institutions? You'd think it would be easy, wouldn't you - 
it's 'free', and that sounds
great! However you need competent/trained teachers/training staff. You need teaching 
materials and supporting
text books. You need sample exercises and databases. Look at what SuSE are doing with 
email servers (etc) and
RedHat with Linux distributions. Perhaps a distribution of LAMPS or the 'PHP Triad', 
especially configured for
an educational environment could be considered? Finally you need people to be 
convinced that there's a demand
for the teaching, and conversely students convinced that it is a valuable skill to 
acquire...

=dn

Re: [PHP] db conversion advice needed

[Miles Thompson]

If you have access to the MySQL console (command line) ...

1. Read the MySQL doc's on LOAD DATA INFILE so that you know the various 
parameters, etc.
2. Export from FileMaker Pro using delimiters which will work with your 
data and are acceptable to MySQL
3. Create necessary database and tables
4. Execute LOAD DATA INFILE with appropriate switches. Don't be surprised 
if this takes some messing about; how the line is terminated often trips 
one up.

Here's one import line that worked ...
load data infile 'pwlist.txt' replace into table subscriber  fields 
terminated by '\t' optionally enclosed by ''" " "" lines terminated by '\r\n'

I can't quite remember how the "optionally enclosed" bit was conformer, I 
think it is tripe quote enclosing double quote.

It's difficult to be more specific, as so much depends on the data. I've 
only had to export from FM Pro once, and thatwas to transfer to MSFT Access 
for a client. The original consultant had specified FMP's "number" type for 
the telephone numbers. Many were of European origin, with embedded hyphens, 
etc.

First time around I tried using Access as the intermediate step, and it 
insisted on doing arithmetic on those fields, as did Access when I tried to 
import it directly. I ended up using FoxPro (old DOS version)  to create 
the table, then edited the header to change numeric field to character, 
deleted all the data and re-imported. Sheesh!

I hope you'll be spared these hoops.

=Hmm, I'm still come at it from the other way around (all due respect to Jason) - but 
then I don't recall OpSys
details, or know if there is a utility/tool for the job in your choice of OpSys.

=What it reminds me of, is what we used to do when archiving files/file sets larger 
than 1.44MB - zipping them
onto more than one diskette.

=Try using PHP to read the original file, and copy it out into a set of ~700MB 
copy/sub-files. Burn each of
these onto CDs. Get PHP to output a handy 'key' - report listing what came from where 
and how to reassemble it
all again (in six months' time when all is forgotten).

open original file
$FileCtr=0;

while not eof
{
create output sub-file nr $FileCtr
$MegCtr=1;

while $MegCtr<700 and not eof
{
read megabyte
write to sub-file
$MegCtr++;
} //end write loop

close sub-file
$FileCtr++;
} //end read

close original file
echo "Copied original into $FileCtr sub-files";

I'm not really sure what you mean by frame-forwarded.  The only methods of 
redirection that I'm really familiar with are:

1. An HTTP header redirect, such as "Location: http://somewhere";

2. A refresh meta tag in the actual body of the document, such as:

http://somewhere";>

3. A javascript redirect like so:

http://somewhere'">

I'm sure there are many other methods but those are the only three that I 
am personally familiar with.

Number 1 is easy to figure out by simply parsing the HTTP header that is 
returned to you from the remote server.  Numbers 2 and 3 are trickier, 
because you actually have to read the page in and parse it.  I'd probably 
do so using a regex to try and determine if these redirect methods exist 
and where they are going if so.  Number 3 is further complicated by the 
possibility of the redirect being wrapped up inside a JavaScript function 
so that makes it even harder to find using a regex.

Maybe someone else reading this can give you some more/better information...

Well unless it's a *really* obscure OS I'm sure there must be some readily 
available file splitter utility. No point doing more work than necessary by 
writing your own file splitting routine :)

[PHP] eval on php embedded html

[DigitalKoala]

hi folks,

i'm having a problem using eval.

i have some html code interdispersed with php code (proper statement not
just variables) in a database.  when i fetch the code and display it using :

$reg_adv_html=addslashes($reg_adv_html);
eval("\$reg_adv_html = \"$reg_adv_html\";");
$reg_adv_html=stripslashes($reg_adv_html);

  print "$reg_adv_html";

the variables work (their values are substitued), but my condtional staments
don't work.

[PHP] Re: Difference between i586 RPM and SRC.RPM?

[Fredrik Wahlberg]

src.rpm is the source code packaged in an rpm-file. If you install it as
rpm --rebuild it will compile a binary rpm for you. If you use Redhat you
can find the binary rpm in /usr/src/Redhat/RPMS

i586.rpm is a compiled binary for the i586-platform architecture

[PHP] multi-threading within php?

[Mattias Andersson]

Hello!
 
I was making a spider for a simple searchengine and all was well until I
started testing it on larger sites.
The problem isn't that it doesn't work, it does, but it is very very slow,
just handling one connection at the time.
Basically, it just downloads a page, extract all links from it, then
downloads those pages, extract their links, until all pages on a site has
been downloaded and archived.
Is there any way to do it in several threads so that it handles several
connections simultaneously?
If it would dynamically allocate threads that would be even better.

Mattias Andersson

[PHP] problems with system()

[John Gurley]

Hello,
  I am in a bit of a pickle and would greatly appreciate any help. I 
have code which writes inputs to a txt file. These inputs are used as inputs 
to a c program. What I am trying to do is use the redirect command < to run 
the code from php. The command is:
./a.outjunk");
it does write the first couple of lines of the code output to the file.

Can anyone see anything wrong? Any help would be great, thanks again

Sorry, I don't have an answer on your question, but a question to you:
I'm currently building a class to browse a page and was interested in the
source of your script. Especially on that part extracting the links.
Would you mind providing the source or is it a commercial?

You may want to use 'wget' spider function, then parse the files with PHP if necessary.

Please review http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-fetch-array.php. The second 
argument to
mysql_fetch_array is the name of a system-defined constant, not a string
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.constants.php).

Given the way you have coded this example, may I also suggest mysql_assoc() at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-fetch-assoc.php

The following is the savepage.php script.  It (in as much as I can figure) is 
 what is executed when one pushes or clicks on the "save" button when phpwiki 
is serving up the"editpage.html" file to a user on his or her browser, and 
the individual is finished editing, and wishes to save their entry.  The 
"save" button is at the bottom of the edit page.  What I wish to have happen 
is, to have the save button do what it does now, save the changes, but in 
addition to that, if I had my perfect world, I would like this savepage.php 
script prefix the edited text with a date and time stamp on the left side of 
the page, appearing as a (redundancy here) prefix to the typed material.  
That way each entry would have a date and time stamp.  I hope I am describing 
this in a fashon you can understand.  Let me give you an example.  One types 
...

This is a good day.

Then the individual pushes the save button.  The save is executed, and the 
user is bounced back to the preview page (the preview page part happens as a 
result simply of how the thing just works).  When the preview page is 
displayed, the newly added text appears, but looks like this...

2002 01/24 09:33:45  This is a good day.

The format of the date and time are really fluff to me, as long as it appears.

I hope my description is understandable.  I eagerly await your response.

Think about a multi-volume archiver, like tar.
Also pkzip, rar and ace have an option to archive without using compression.

[PHP] Re: Clear form post data

[Atanas Vassilev]

The general approach when a form has $PHP_SELF as the action value is to use
a switch construct and in one of the cases perform the mentioned db
operations, in all other cases (depends what variable you'd be switching)
simply do not perform them.

Many ways to do this, one of which could be:


  

  


Then in your file download.php, have a single statement using the header() 
function to redirect to the file that is to be downloaded.

[PHP] Problems writing the TM (™) symbol when generating XML file

[Atanas Vassilev]

I'm generating an XML file and because of the later purpose of this XML file
I need to write all occurrences of the TM symbol using "™" code
instead of "™". However, no matter how I write this symbol in the
input text fields, holding ALT and typing 0153 or just entering "™" in
the end I always get "™" in the generated XML file. I would appreciate
any clue for a workaround of this issue.

Thanks!

If you only want the associative array, just use mysql_fetch_array($result).  If 
you're using the constant MYSQL_ASSOC, uppercase it, and don't quote it.

One would need to check the db to see if the operation had already been performed, so 
as not to do it again.

[PHP] Sending a POST-message

[Björne]

Hi!

I wonder how I can send a POST-command to a server, via a PHP-script instead 
of a form.

Imagen that I have this form:

Name: 
E-mail: 



Now I want to send a command to the /request.php, and formate the returned 
data - via a PHP-script.

Should I use sockets or fopen? Or something else? This would be easy if I 
could use the GET-method, but unforntuatly I can't.

I think you just need to add the timestamp to the start of the story before
you save it,
i.e.
$content = date("d/m/Y H:i:s - ") . $content;

or am I missing something?

Re: [PHP] RE: phpwiki save button

[Tim Bogart]

No, you're not missing a thing.  I just need to know exactly where to put the 
line you sent me.  The word "content" is mentioned a few times in the script 
and I'm not a programmer, remember?  Could you please indicate exactly where 
you would put the line you sent me?  I'm sure you are taking for granted that 
I know more than I seem, but I don't.  I'm a newbie at this and have to have 
my nose put down into it before I understand.  Where should I put the line?

Thanks!

Tim

[PHP] Change files of users?

[Tobias Schweitzer]

Hello

I just subscribed to the list, hoping that someone would be able to help
me with my question.
Well, I'm working on a script that can and will be used by different
users from the machine and I was wondering if there was any way to do
something like an su, changing the user the script is executed under to
the user currently logged in by the script.

Reason:
I'd like to give users the ability to save their options and preferences
for the script. I'd like to accomplish this with a file in the users
homedir, something like the usual .something config files, chowned to
the logged in user and set to his/ her permissions...

Hope someone will be able to help me.
Ciao
Tobias Schweitzer

[PHP] Re: [PHP-DB] Creating a pdf document

[Daniel Ems]

Mihai,

There is a php class that can generate pdf documents without the 
dll's/libraries required by other methods:

http://ros.co.nz/pdf/

You can definitely use the results of a database query to create a pdf!  
Enjoy!

RE: [PHP] RE: phpwiki save button

[Tim Ward]

without the full source code of the classes you are using I'd be guessing,
but within savePreview() and savePage() $content is passed to an object
method that does the saving. You could just pass date("d/m/Y H:i:s - ") .
$content instead of $content. However it looks like this may be amended from
previous versions ... if so you'll need to strip the first x characters from
the front ... but this is getting messy.

the better way to do this is with a last_updated field in the database
holding a timestamp and handle including it at the top of the text when
displaying. I'd be surprised if the table doesn't already have a field like
that.

[PHP] Warning: Failed opening '....' for inclusion (.....) in Unknown on line 0

[Scott Fletcher]

Hiya Everyone!

I'm a little baffled on what is happening.  I'm using Apache on the UNIX
machine.  When I built the website, everyone work okay.  Then I accidently
remove part of the web directory because I was in the wrong directory at
that time.  So, I had to restore the lost directory from the tape backup.
All of the deleted file had been restored.  Then that's when this problem
came up.  I kept getting the error message on some files with a "Warning:
Failed opening '...' for inclusion () in Unknown on line 0".  I did some
troubleshooting but with no luck.

Can someone tell me what the problem is?  Have I overlooked something?

Thanks,
 Scott

Hi again!  I just did the crazy thing and it work!  What I did was to copy

Is that warning coming from one of your 'restored' files of one of the
others? That's usually a *path* and or *file name* probem.

Scott, this is a mailing list with hundreds of posts a day, the only
reason I know what your on about is that I just answered your last post.
Please keep the thread together, it makes life much easier :-)

Just found out it was the *quotes* that were pasted into my stuff from
a tutorial from a web site that were locking me up.  They looked good
but they weren't *official* quotes... :-/   Probably other characters
that will do that too..?  Duh!  

Well maybe someone besides myself didn't know that, eh?

[PHP] Re: phpwiki save button

[Tim Bogart]

So...I would create a new table in my postgresql database that's being used 
which would contain the timestamp.  I would populate that table when the 
savepage.php was executed, extract the data from that table and write it to 
the screen, then execute the save.  Does that sound right?

[PHP] One more time... Sessions questons?

[Floyd Baker]

Hi 

I have been reading but can't get sessions to even try working..  

The set up is win32/php4.1/apache. 

Reading the list I have done what was suggested where it I could
understand it.  Just went nuts creating /tmp dirs everywhere I could
think of to see if any of them worked...  Nada!  Also changed the ini
line to point to c:/tmp, etc. Still ng.

Here is one of the scrips that doesn't work.

session_start();
session_register('page_views');
$page_views++;

print " You have viewed this page ";
print $page_views;
print " times(s).";


The ini is the 'recommended' version with register_globals off and
whatever vanilla settings were in there.  Everything else seems to be
working...  I can pass vars using $_REQUEST just fine.  What's wrong?

[PHP] Re: The Euro symbol, default charset and htmlentities()

[LaserJetter]

can you not print the charset inside one of the HTML tags? ( it
might be in).

Also, if you dont want to keep typing out
htmlentities("¤",ENT_QUOTES,"iso-8859-15") to get a euro, just do:
$euro = htmlentities("¤",ENT_QUOTES,"iso-8859-15");

SV: [PHP] multi-threading within php?

[Mattias Andersson]

Then I would have to write a parser when I have already written my own
spider. But the problem isn't the spider itself, but rather the lack of
multi-threading within PHP (which is needed in quite alot of sitatuations,
depending on what you're coding). I'm not sure if it really does lack
multi-threading though, it might just be me that doesn't know about it.
Is there any way to execute several functions simultaneously?

[PHP] function scope question

[Joel Boonstra]

Hello,

I wrote a PHP class to display an HTML calendar, and then wrote a subclass
of it for a specific project I'm working on.  Here is the entirety of the
subclass:

// create our new sub-class of the calendar
class rantCal extends calendar {
  function get_link($day) {
$link = "";
if (valid_date($this->my_year, $this->my_month, $day)) {
  if (rant_exists($this->my_year, $this->my_month, $day)) {
$link = "index.php?date=$this->my_year-$this->my_month-$day";
  }
}
return $link;
  }
}

Basically, it's used to determine if a given date should be linked or not.
When I wrote it, I didn't expect it to work, since these two function:

valid_date()
rant_exists()

are defined completely outside of the class.  In fact, they're defined in
a functions file that I include (with include()) above where I define my
rantCal class.  Shouldn't their names not be recognized within this class?
I was assuming that a class was entirely self-contained, so it can't know
about functions defined outside its scope.  However, it works just fine
(that is, the functions get called), which is helpful, but it doesn't seem
like the way things should work.

Am I completely wrong?  I seem to recall that this sort of thing should
work in a more strict OO language, like C++.

I'm using PHP 4.0.6, if that's important.

If you want the user to be prompted to save the data you are sending,
such as a generated PDF file, you can use the Content-Disposition header
to supply a recommended filename and force the browser to display the
save dialog.

When functions are defined, they are available everywhere: in other
functions, in classes, and in subclasses. As far as availability
goes, any function you define is just as available as any of the
built-in PHP functions (like addslashes() for instance).

Personally, though I am not a HEAVY OO programmer, I cannot see why
having those functions UNAVAILABLE in the class would be
advantageous in anyway.

If you want a function to exist ONLY within a particular class, then
it should be created in that class, otherwise, it should be created
outside of any class, and is therefore available globally.

I can't say whether it SHOULD be the way it is or not... but I can
tell you that the behaviour you are describing is accurate and
intended.

This is where you put whatever chunk of code you use to create the
file that you wish the user to download. If this is a PDF file on
disk, you can do something as simple as readfile("filename.pdf")..
or if you are generating it yourself.. then, again, you'll probably
use readfile("whatever.pdf"), since (though I have never used them)
I am pretty sure the PDF libs don't have an output function, so you
have to write to disk.

Example 1 on this page (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php)
shows EXACTLY what you are trying to do with one small change, make
the word "inline" read as "attachment" so it'll force the user to
download, as opposed to displaying in the browser.

[PHP] using a text file for variables in a form?

[Alexis N. Mueller]

I have some variables stored in plain text in a text file. Unfortunately I
am not going to be able to use SQL to solve this one, since that server is
not running it. Anyway.

The text file looks like this (everything between the *):
*
SAVINGS=type1
FILTER=disabled
SPOOL=category1
*
I use a form to edit this text file. SAVINGS and SPOOL are 'select' form
items with multiple options. FILTER is a 'radio' form item with two options.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to make the text file pass the variables
into the form that i use to edit the text file... confusing?
hmm...
let's say i was editing the text file that i gave as an example, I would
like like the SAVINGS 'select' field in the form to have type1 selected. the
FILTER 'radio' field
in the form should be checked on disabled. And the SPOOL 'select' field
should read category1

Anyone have any ideas on how to do that?
Help would be appreciated,
Thank you

Alex

Re: [PHP] emulate a browser

[LaserJetter]

If it is frame forwarded, you would get a 300 OK status becuase you have
accessed a web page and it has been server OK. The webpage (which contains
the  tags) then send a request to another server to get the page
to be redirected to.
The only way to check for this would be to see if the page you have sent the
request for contains the  tags (use GET instead of HEAD) but this
would be unreliable as a lot of websites start with a frame based page
anyway.

First, you need to get the data from the file and make the items
useful:



Now your values are accessible as $data["SAVINGS"], etc.

So... when building the HTML...

Load the XML into a variable,
do whatever changes to it,
then process the variable with xslt_process.

Have a look at:

Example 3 Using the xslt_process() to transform a variable containing XML
data and a variable containing XSL data into a variable containing the
resulting XML data

The code you are showing should work... therefore it may be
something to do with your browser. Try changing the Content-Type
to something that there is no way you could have ever registered in
your browser:

header("Content-Type: x-this-is-a-test/for-php");

And see if that changes the way it handles it. Of course,
application/pdf is the CORRECT MIME type, so if this NEW MIME type
does solve the problem, you should attempt to fix your browser, and
put the script back the way it was. If it doesn't fix anything, try
using a different browser, or better yet, a different machine.
Additionally, when working with this type of operation, the first
time you hit the page, it will be cached (in it's incorrect form) in
your browser. Therefore, after making these changes, you should dump
the Disk and Memory cache in your browser, and close and restart
your browser just to be safe.

1) What kind of file are you letting people download?
2) Is the file generated on-the-fly or is it already on disk?
3) What webserver are you using?



In general, if the file is on disk then simply using:

  header("Location: http://www.domain.com/downloads/myfile.exe";);

would work. Whether the user is asked to "Save or Open..." depends on the 
browser setting.

If you're using a webserver such as Apache then certain common file types are 
automatically recognised and the appropriate HTTP headers are sent to the 
browser.


If you want to force a download regardless of whether the file type will be 
recognised by the browser then you would have to send your own headers. 
Something like the following:

  header("HTTP/1.0 200 OK");
  header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
  header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=some_filename");
  header("Content-Location: $F");
  header("content-length: " . filesize("/path/to/file.ext"));
  header("Location:http://www.domain.com/some_filename";);

**CORRECTION** (I was trying to adapt some old code to use for this example)

   header("HTTP/1.0 200 OK");
   header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
   header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=some_filename");
   header("Content-Location: some_filename");
   header("content-length: " . filesize("/path/to/file.ext"));
   readfile("/path/to/file.ext");

I just want to point out that some versions of IE are notoriously buggy 
(what's new ;-)) and would try to display any type of file regardless of what 
you have for the Content-Type. So if you have a buggy version of IE you need 
to upgrade it.

Re: [PHP] multi-threading within php?

[DL Neil]

If the links are placed in a db as they are found, then couldn't you run the same 
script in multiple instances
(browser windows, DOS boxes/command lines) against the same db. That way you would be 
fetching and parsing
multiple web pages concurrently. The only 'multi-threading' would be against the db. 
Your Internet link should
be able to cope.

Subject: SV: [PHP] multi-threading within php?


Then I would have to write a parser when I have already written my own
spider. But the problem isn't the spider itself, but rather the lack of
multi-threading within PHP (which is needed in quite alot of sitatuations,
depending on what you're coding). I'm not sure if it really does lack
multi-threading though, it might just be me that doesn't know about it.
Is there any way to execute several functions simultaneously?

You may want to use 'wget' spider function, then parse the files with PHP if
necessary.
