Re: [PHP] Regular expression newbie question, convert this: [::word1\" word2 \" word3::] to : ".word1 " word2 " word3."

[Lance]

hi dan,

its because the html text is from user input. and i dont wanna spend too 
much time educating them on coding with php. sometime its a pain trying 
to get them to understand the codes. so i just wanna give them some 
simple commands in php whereby they can happily insert date formats on a 
page. something like what phpBB did on the [url] thingie.

Can simply set $i before the while.

I assume the $last_name is coming from the DB.

Not exactly sure what you want, but hope this helps.
good luck... Dan.

This is all really straight forward stuff.  Here's some code that will get the file 
parsed to an array, what you do from there is up to you.



Note: if you have a precise structure for your lines you can say to read from point a 
to b using substr().  For example, let's say the first name is exactly 3 characters in 
from 0  and exactly 10 characters long so you could do substr($line_array[0], 3, 10);  
This is a really dirty way to handle this and I'm sure there are better ways so poke 
around a bit.  Also if you have your phone number located down to a specific location 
you can use an explode statement to get both area code and main number seperated.

Subject: [PHP] Parsing Text File

I am trying to input data from a text file into a MySQL database and would
like to be able to input the data using a single script.  What's the easiest
way to parse a line, such as below, and turn it into variables to be placed
in the database.  While I can simply place the data in by importing from a
file, it's not quite so easy.  I only need to place some of the data in,
plus I would like to split one of the fields.  Below is an example of a line
from the file, and then the variables that I need to enter.

Here is an example of a line from the file:
Number,City,State,Country,Provider,Isdn,56K,CreateDate,Active,Timezone,ModDa
te,ModNote
403 -770 -4904 ,CALGARY,AB,CAN,T2,Y,Y,Apr 29 2002
12:00:00:000AM,I,GMT-0700,,

As for variables, I need the following:
Split Number into $AreaCode & $Number > 403 & 770-4904
$City
$State
$Country

Thanks for any help.

Just how much can the php name be used in applications?

The license says
  3. The name "PHP" must not be used to endorse or promote products
 derived from this software without prior permission from the
 PHP Group.  This does not apply to add-on libraries or tools
 that work in conjunction with PHP.  In such a case the PHP

So, we have applications such as phpnuke etc that use the php name
quite freely. Is this ok, or is it a breach of the license?

Using "0" in the time slot does work for this, as long as the entire

Wise.  Be sure to read the changelog!

CI> Is it enought :
CI> tar -zxvf phpfile4-2-1.gz


No.  All that does is unpack the distribution. You must now build the PHP
module.

If you were the person who installed PHP before, then you probably
remember the process.  It's a configure/make/make install process.

You may want to do a phpinfo() on your existing installation, to
determine the configuration directives that were used.  Likely, you
will want to use the same ones (or nearly the same) with this new
build.

Once the configure is successful, do a make && make install.  This
will place the PHP module in the correct place.   You need to then
restart Apache.

Note that this is a very simple description.  The PHP Manual has a
wonderful and thorough chapter on installation and configuration.

Or, if you need extra hand-holding, I have a hand-holding tutorial
called "Setup and Install Apache with PHP 4.2.1 as a Dynamic Module"
at http://www.thickbook.com/extra/php_apachephp4_ix.phtml

Although you wouldn't need the Apache part, just the PHP building
part.

Good luck!

Ok, if you're saying you do not have root access, then  you have to
have someone with root access do it for you.

If you are saying that you didn't do it the first time and you don't
know how, then read the instruction manual or tutorial _very_ closely,
since it will be your first time.

[PHP] md5 php vs. md5 perl

[Danny Kruitbosch]

Hi,

I'm trying to rewrite a perl finction to php. The function uses Digest::MD5.

PHP md5() returns a 32 char hex number. The perl Digest::MD5 function 
returns a 16 char (ascii??) string. Can I also get this from PHP? If so 
how do I do that?

My ultimate goal is to have compatible PHP/Perl functions.


Thanks!

And people wonder why others get frustrated when answering cries

You then said:

And then:

CI> Could you explain me a little bit more, how to do ?

To which I will respond, albeit "classically", that you could:
a) read the installation manual or
b) read a tutorial or
c) read previous email message, which says to run the configure
command, then make, then make install, which will put the module in
the proper place.

If you do not understand option c, then you must read the installation
manual or a tutorial to gain some insight into the power that is root,
in this case.

32 hex characters describes the 128 bit result from the MD5 routine no
matter where it is run: PHP, Shell, whatever.  This assumes one hex
character stands for 4 bits => 32 x 4 = 128.  This is the usual way of
handling MD5 hashes as this is simple 7 bit ascii characters use to
describe the hex numerals 0-9, A, B, C, D, E, and F.

If you use a full byte then you get 8 bits * 16 = 128.  This result is an
extended ascii string which may or may not be difficult to handle with
built-in PHP functions.

You could write a routine that combines every two hex characters into one
byte by converting the right hex to its numerical value (0 to 15), the
left bit to its numerical value * 16, add them together to get the
resulting byte value (0 to 255) and use it to build your 16 byte result.

This should get you compatibility between the two different ways of
describing MD5 hashes.

[PHP] php, xml and flash

[Henry]

i'd like to use the flash xml sendAndLoad method to send a number of variables to a 
php script.

php would process the variables and query a database and dynamically write an xml 
formatted
response. and then obviously load it back into flash.

however, i'm having problems with the initial step of php processing the xml formatted 
variables.
how can i structure my php script to get at these variables?

the xml would be formatted like :



i need the value of variables type and search. the values may also have spaces.

cheers
Henry

[PHP] String within a string

[Anthony Ritter]

I want to make sure about the syntax using mysql and PHP.

Here is the line of code:

$query="SELECT * FROM books WHERE ". $searchtype. " LIKE '%" .$searchterm.
"%' ";
.

Am I correct that the reason for the single quote within the expression
above is that:

"SELECT * FROM books WHERE"  // Beginning and end double quotes before the
variable $searchtype

.  // concatation operator

$searchtype // variable

. // concatation operator

"LIKE '%"  // Beginning of double quote and then beginning single quote
beacuse it is the beginning of a string which then ends before the variable
$searchterm.

. // concatation operator

$searchterm // variable

. // concatation operator

"%' "; // beginning of double quote for regex synmbol which then ends the
string and then an end double quote.

Thank you.
Tony Ritter

My email program might mess up that code...either way, just use fopen()

Re: [PHP] String within a string

[Chris Shiflett]

Each item within double quotes is a literal string. The example you 
inquire about dynamically builds an SQL statement.

For example, if $searchtype is "author_name" and $searchterm is 
"Rasmus", then you would build a statement like:

select * from books where author_name like '%Rasmus%';

The SQL statement should be terminated by a semicolon, I believe, and 
that appears to be missing from your example.

"Beginning of double quote and then beginning single quote beacuse it is 
the beginning of a string which then ends before the variable $searchterm."

This is incorrect. The $searchterm is a part of the string. In the SQL 
statement above, '%Ramus' is the result of concatenating "'%" with the 
value of $searchterm with "%'".

Basically, you just want to achieve your SQL statement, regardless of 
the logic you use to do that. An SQL statement is just a string, so 
there are numerous ways to contruct one.

Re: [PHP] String within a string

[Anthony Ritter]

Chris,
Maybe I didn't make myself clear...


"LIKE '%"// Beginning of double quote and then beginning single quote
beacuse it is the beginning of a string which then ends before the variable
$searchterm.
..

Is the reason that the is a single quote *before* % and then a double quote
after the % is:

There is a single quote in the above example because all strings *within* a
mysql expression which already starts and ends with double quotes must have
a single quote to differentiate the two quotes - double and single.   Please
disregard esacping characters in this example. Double quotes and single
quotes.

And in this case, the code begins with double quotes and ends with double
quotes *before* the concatenation operator and variable.  The string which
comes before the first string ends needs a single quote as in:

'%" file://here comes the concenation operator and variable

and then:

// variable and concenation operator and

" %' ";

The end single quote then resumes *after* the variable and next concatention
operator.

Thank you.

[PHP] persistent connections

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

Is there anyway to "manage" persistent connections to MySQL?

I've started using them on various of my sites (mysql_pconnect instead of
mysql_connect - as in the documentation), but after a few hours, I notice
that the connections just keeps on getting more and more and more.

Eventually, the entire server crawls to a standstill and I have to restart
mysql to speed up the system...

Any ideas?

Yes its funny looking, but if I could get this going Im golden.
$bar is always returned with '=_L_OL_HERE=' as the link and not 'here'

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [PHP] String within a string

[Chris Shiflett]

I might be misinterpreting the question, because it sounds like the same 
question as before. Let me try to be more thorough.

SQL statements traditionally use single quotes around literal values. 
There is no reason of "escaping" that makes this characteristic exist.

Now, in PHP, most people construct the SQL statement as the value of a 
variable and use that variable in their SQL execution statement. This 
isn't necessary, but it makes for cleaner code.

You have to consider an SQL statement to be a string. There is 
absolutely nothing special about it in this regard. For example, this 
might be the string you wish to assign to a variable:

select * from books where book_title='HTTP';

Alternatively, you might want to search for all books where the title 
contains the term HTTP:

select * from books where book_title like '%HTTP%';

The "%" character just acts as a wildcard, so it matches zero or more of 
anything.

Taking the second SQL statement, we can store it in a variable like this:

$sql_statement="select * from books where book_title like '%HTTP%';";

Notice that there is no specific reason for using single quotes within 
the assign statement; they're just part of the string we wish to construct.

Now, getting back to the question at hand, the "HTTP" part of the SQL 
statement might be something from a form. For this example, we will 
assume it to be stored in a variable called $book_title.

If we want to use concatenation to build our SQL statement, we can do 
something like this:

$sql_statement="select * from books where book_title like '%" . 
$book_title . "%';";

Broken down, there are three things concatenated to build this string:

1) select * from books where book_title like '%
2) $book_title
3) %';

Notice these are just slices of the original SQL statement from the very 
top. The double quotes surround pieces 1 and 3 because these are 
strings. Don't let the fact that the string have single quotes within 
them confuse you. There is no reason for the single quotes for our 
concatenation. These become important when we try to execute the SQL 
statement only.

As another example, to get away from the single quotes, consider the 
following string:

I wish the HTML specification had a tag called  that I could use.

Assume the string "cool_tag" is in a variable called $tag_name, and we 
can do something very similar to the above method:

$example_string="I wish the HTML specification had a tag called <" . 
$tag_name . "> that I could use."

Since we are using angled brackets instead of single quotes, maybe it is 
easier to understand.

Hope that helps.

Chris

You're trying to match one or more characters in the class, so add a "+".  
And you're not concatenating the expression 'constant("$2")' with anything, 
so lose the extra periods.  Parentheses aren't needed around the equals 
signs, so you might as well drop those too.  Ex:

preg_replace('/=([A-Z0-9_]+)=/e', 'constant("$1")', $foo);

[PHP] domxml

[Douglas]

Hi,

I have a web page with a form. I want the user to be able to use the £ 
symbol in a text field on the form. I then pass the value of the text 
field(the £ symbol) to a DOMXML function which creates a XML string 
which is transformed into XHTML using the XSLT functions.

I have a meta tag defining the encoding of the web page as UTF-8. (So 
the £ symbol is being passed into the DOMXML function in this format? I 
echo it out just before doing this and it displays correctly.)

the DOMXML functions use UTF-8 for input and output. When I echo the XML 
output before passing it to the XSLT functions, I see that it has placed 
a  symbol immediately before the £ symbol.

Why? What is going on?
Any ideas very much appreciated.

Douglas.
