I guess it would be possible to do this with 'DISTINCT' - something like

SELECT DISTINCT LEFT(1,1,field) FROM .

Yes I know the syntax is probably wrong but I can't be hanged checking the 
docs :-)

[PHP] PHP 4.3.2 Compiling error in native GD

[Bix]

I'm compiling with:

./configure --with-apxs --with-mysql=/usr --with-mcrypt=/usr/local/lib/ --wi

This worked fine with 4.3.1 and in 4.3.2 it configures fine, but under
make...

[PHP] Php 4.3.2 "stream does not support seeking" in includes

[Nicolas Ross]

Hi there !

I just upgraded to php 4.3.2 on several servers, and some of them uses
incldes of remote files (via include("http:...") functions.

I get :

Warning: main(): stream does not support seeking in ... on line ..

All the time, on all machines.

My "standard" configure line is :

./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr --with-
xml --enable-ftp --with-zlib --with-png --with-png-dir=/usr --with-jpeg --en
able-exif --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-gd --with-ttf --with-freetype-dir=/usr
 --with-tiff --enable-track-vars --enable-trans-sid --disable-debug

I just tried somthing, I disabled the Zend optimizer and it stoped doing
that...

Any hints ?

[PHP] How stable is CVS releases?

[Timothy Arnold]

Hi all,

I am having a problem with compiling PHP 4.3.2 on Solaris 8. The compile
runs ok but blows up when I try a make install. Before submitting this a
bug I downloaded the latest CVS release to see if it has been fixed. It
has!

Unfortunatly, I do not know how stable the CVS version is for production
use? At present 4.3.1 has some serious bugs (i.e persistent connections
not working) but we hve implemented workarounds.

What I would like to know is, is it worth waiting for PHP 4.3.3 or just
use the CVS version?

Thanks,
Timothy

[PHP] PHP CLI question

[Monte Ohrt]

Hi,

A couple of questions:

1) Is there a way to make the CLI version of PHP ignore certain settings
in the php.ini file? For instance, I don't want the ioncube accelerator
invoked when using PHP from the command line. My current work around is
to use two separate init files, php.ini and php-cli.ini ... and this
brings me to my second question:

2) Is there a way to specify a different name for the php.ini file,
apart from hacking php_ini.c ? It seems I can only change the _path_ to
the file, but not the filename itself.

TIA
Monte

[PHP] How do I display new lines in a textearea?

[Petre Agenbag]

Hi

I want to have a textarea that contains details read from a mysql table,
but I want to echo each row so that it is on a new line. What is the
"new-line" character for a textarea? ( in effect the reverse of nl2br()
)

Thanks

A newline is \n

$text = "word\nword\nword\n";

echo "$word";

will have each "word" on a different line.

[PHP] Re: How do I display new lines in a textearea?

[Bobby Patel]

this is discussed in the posted comments under the function section of nl2br
on php.net.

But from what I remember there is no br2nl() (unfortunately).

just goto php.net/nl2br and search the posted comments for br2nl

The "|" means "OR", so logic would dictate you can point
directly to the file with the -c option.

Obviously there are ways to optimize the code for speed.  However, as
with many optimizations, there are trade offs...  One way to do away
with the 450 lines of case would be to use a BUNCH of include modules. 
For instance:



What this means is that you would need a "Function" file for each
option in your directory with only the code for that function.  It
would be included when the "Opt" function matched.  Of course, you
would need to either see if the file exists or catch the error if it
doesn't but you just compressed 450 lines of case into 2 lines.  You
also probably compressed 2200 lines down to about 120 or so lines (3
lines for the driver, 80 for the standard includes and another 20-40
for the main function).

The down side to this is that you have to have 100+ php files that you
will have to maintain separately.

[PHP] recursive displaying tree structure

[Armand Turpel]

Hi,
May this can help you:

$tmp[$key] = $value; 
}
$tmp['indent'] = $indent;

$ret_tree[] = $tmp;

tree($tmp['id'], $indent+1);
}
}
else
{
return 0;
}
}


 // This is your tree structure. It should be sorted by titles
 //
 $g_tree = array();
 
 $g_tree[]  = array(
   'id' => 1,
   'id_parent' => 0,
   'title' => 'Astronomy'
  );   
 $g_tree[]  = array(
   'id' => 2,
   'id_parent' => 1,
   'title' => 'Radio-Astronomy'
  ); 
  $g_tree[]  = array(
   'id' => 3,

 {
  $indent = '';
  for($i=0;$i<$cat['indent'];$i++)
   $indent .= '___';
  
  echo $indent.$cat['title'].'';

?>

It sould even work to print a subtree eg. tree(1,0)

Re: [PHP] PHP Class for IP CIDR notation

[Mark]

Here's a quick function of the top of my head. I'm not sure if
x.x.0.x or x.0.x.x are valid IP addresses. Adjust as necessary.

255) {
  echo "First octet of IP address cannot exceed 255";
  return false;
}
$ip_list[]=implode(".",$octet);

  }
  return $ip_list;

}

$arr=cidr("192.168.1.0",23);
echo "";
print_r($arr);
echo "";

[PHP] PDF

[Lukas Gerhold]

Hy!

I have an existing pdf formular, which I have to fill up with data from a
mysql database.
Now, I know, that there are these pdf funktions which could do all the work.
But to use these functions I needed the PDFlib.
Only the 'lite PDFlib' is an open source product, and the full version
espezially PDFlib+PDI or PDFlib Personalization Server (PPS) costs an
amazing mount of money.

So my questions, is it possible, to fill in data using the 'lite PDFlib' in
an existing pdf form?
And if not, are there any other possibillities than to buy 'PDFlib+PDI' or
'PDFlib Personalization Server (PPS)' to do so?

I'm thankful for every post!
greetings to all of you!

[PHP] PHP Mailing list software..

[Chad Day]

Can anyone make a recommendation for me?  I'm looking to tie mailing lists
in to my existing site, which is coded in php/mysql.  I would be looking for
a script that has browseable archives, ability to restrict access to them to
subscribers only, and the ability to send mail to the list a web form, which
would require a u/p stored in mysql, preferably in md5 format.  I know I'll
have to do a lot of customization to get it to integrate into my site, but
I'm looking for a solid script that I need to tweak the least.  Any
suggestions?

Thanks,
Chad Day

[PHP] Passing values back to form

[Daniel J. Rychlik]

Im new to PHP coming from a background in perl devlopement.  I have a form that a user 
can fill out.  

On submit the values are iterated over a foreach to check for empty().  If the an 
emtyp $key is found then it passes an error string to my error function.  

I have 2 php files, one that is the Form called profile.php and one that processes the 
values from the form, called profileprocess.php.  There are multiple functions in 
profileprocess.php.  When the header function is called in the profileprocess.php it 
takes you back to the profile.php with empty values in the fields.  I was wandering if 
their is a way, (which Im sure their is) to pass back all the data that was correctly 
entered back to the form, and then a nice little message that displays the error of 
the data that needs to be checked by the user.  I could do this a number of ways, but 
the key is not writing code that you dont have to.  Its just smarter programming.  

Any ideas, or functions I could read on in the rtFM manual is greatly appreciated.  

I appreciate you looking at this problem...
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Re: [PHP] PDF

[Philip Olson]

Odds are you don't need PDFlib at all.  The docs at php.net/pdf
link to the following faq:

   How can I generate PDF files without using the non-free and 
   commercial libraries ClibPDF and PDFLib? I'd like something 
   that's free and doesn't require external PDF libraries.
 
   http://us2.php.net/manual/en/faq.using.php#faq.using.freepdf

Consider using one of these alternatives.

Philip

Re: [PHP] Passing values back to form

[Kevin Stone]

Hi Daniel,

My advice is to use php sessions.  You can register both the filled and
empty values in the session after processing them.  Then you can header()
redirect normally with no fuss and extract the values from the session file
on the form page.

And here's a tip.  Set up some CSS in a switch() statement to highlight the
form fields that are left blank.  This makes for a nice user interface,
esspecially on larger forms.

Read up on sessions..

[PHP] Regex for Browser Versions

[Gerard Samuel]

Im trying to pull the Mozilla version and *possibly* the MSIE x.xx 
string out $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']
If I did this correctly, (MSIE\s\d\.\d{1,2})? should mean that if its 
there pull it out, else move on, since its not there.
When viewing this script via a windows browser, it doesn't match the 
MSIE section.  If I take out the trailing ?, it will match successfully.
But when viewing it with a mozilla browser, the regex fails as there is 
not MSIE string in there.
Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks



var_dump($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
echo '';
preg_match('/^(Mozilla\/\d\.\d{1,2}|Opera\/\d\.\d{1,2})\s\(.*?(MSIE\s\d\.\d{1,2})?.*?\)(\sOpera)?/', 
$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], $foo);

var_dump($foo);

You can run separate ./configure commands for the apache (or whatever) module 
and for the CLI version, specifying a different "--with-config-file-path".

[PHP] PHP/Javascript Help

[Stephen]

Hello,

I'm trying to use a calendare script to select a date in another form. I got the 
calendar working and I've got it all working except one bit of error.

I'm repeating a table field to get all these items into a table. Each row of the table 
has it's own text field where the user can type in when they want the item to be 
delivered. That's where the calendar comes in. It opens a new window, displays the 
calendar, and that's that. The problem I'm having is when the user click the date, 
they get an error, one of those "Expected ] on line whatever."

I can see what the problem is. Since I repeat the form field, I made the field's name 
delivery[item_id] and item_id is replaced with the item's id currently being 
displayed. I need to keep this array so, how can I fix this error? I tried doing the 
\[ trick since that works with apostrpohes but it didn't seem to work. Any help would 
be great!

Here's my javascript link code for each day of the month in the calendar script:

print "$d";

$HTTP_GET_VARS['name'] holds the text field name, ie delivery[3322ffds]. If I replace 
the name either order in the text field and as the variable I pass in the URL it works 
fine.

I'm not yours, so why should I be sincere about it,

[PHP] Re: Where to start?

[Monty]

Knowing any kind of programming language will help in learning PHP. If you
understand variables, arrays, if/else structures, etc., it allows you to
skim over some of the basics quickly.

I had very little programming experience, but, learned a lot from the book
"PHP and MySQL Web Development" by Luke Wellington and Laura Thomson. This
was a about 2 years ago, though, and if they haven't come out with an
update, then it's probably a little too outdated by now.

Also, I learned LOTS from a number of guys on this newsgroup who generously
offer their advice and wisdom. The sites that a few others mentioned are
also helpful. Once you start programming, ALWAYS check out the online PHP
help on php.net. It's really excellent and is chock full of input from users
who offer sample scripts and solutions for all kinds of things. It's the
best resource anywhere.

I also get PHP Architect (phparch.com), a PDF publication that has some good
and helpful stuff in it. As you can see, there are lots of online resources
for PHP and MySQL.

[PHP] Using the .htaccess file to extend the php.ini include path entry

[Saint Urho]

I want to add some directories to the "include path" entry in the 
php.ini file.  I have to do this via the .htaccess file because I do not 
have access to the php.ini file on the server.

Will the additional directories in the .htaccess file replace the 
directories in the php.ini file or will the ones in the .htaccess file 
be added to the directories in the php.ini file?

Re: [PHP] Morph an object

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Torben,

Thanks for your help.  I got it to work by creating a constructor that took
the content as an argument then set the property $this->content =
SetContent($content);

Then in my script I instantiated the object with the login form as the
content. I created a switch case for the result of the login routine and
within each case I re-invoked the constructor with a different argument to
change the content.  Then when I called the Display() function again, it
changed the screen on the browser...

I really appreciate all your help!

[PHP] Basic counter & users online..

[PHPSpooky]

Glory!
 
I'm working on a Counter thing. with a basic Hit Meter and a Users
Online Meter. 
The problem I face is.. the index page of my site is HTML .. no
frameset.. and I need to display these vars on that page. The solution I
use is that I place a Flash Clip (.swf) and I'm calling the PHP
Variables in it, from a PHP page.. 
 
But now the issues comes in.. how does the Database increment the
counter? If I place the counter increment script on a PHP page.. it's
ok. But here I have a HTML page with Flash in it.. when this HTML page
loads.. the Counter needs to be incremented by one, and this adding to
the Hits. Same way the Users Online script needs to work.. but how do I
do this? 
 
Does anybody have any other solution how to make this work?

[PHP] Allowing punctuation marks in regular expressions

[Luis Lebron]

I found the following function to test a string for alphanumeric characters

function is_alphanumeric($string) 
{
return (preg_match("/^[a-z0-9]+$/i", $string));
}

How can I modify it so that it also allows punctuation marks?

thanks,

Hi,

>   return (preg_match("/^[a-z0-9]+$/i", $string));

That a-z0-9 is where you can do it.  Just add ! or . or ? to the end:

a-z0-9!?.

Also, if you want upper case letters, make sure you add A-Z:

A-Za-z0-9!?.

If the issue is running a cron job on the server, you could run the

[PHP] ob_get_contents returns FALSE?

[Shawn McKenzie]

I can't get ob_get_contents() to return false, or I don't know how to test
for it.  Help appreciated.  The following never echos STARTING!!!

ob_end_flush();
if(ob_get_contents() === FALSE) {
echo "STARTING!!!";
ob_start();
}

also tried:  if(ob_get_contents() == FALSE)
and: if(!ob_get_contents())
and:  if(ob_get_contents() == "")

But I do get the following notice at the ob_end_flush(); line which tells me
that output buffering is not on:

Notice: ob_end_flush() [ref.outcontrol]: failed to delete buffer default
output handler.

Thanks!

I think he was just saying the using $_GET and $_POST is a better way
to make sure that your script is compatible across as many
installations and version than using register_globals = on, since it
will always work. :)

[PHP] Automatic Headers and Footers

[Wendell Brown]

Ok guys, I think I have a challenge for you (actually, I don't think
this can be done, but I've been proven wrong every time I've made that
assumption with php in the past, so I'll ask anyway).  Here's the
question:

Is there a way to have php insert headers and/or footers into all of
the html files in a given directory on the fly (not actually modifying
the files)?  And by this I mean take an existing valid HTML file and
add headers and footers and end up with a valid HTML file.

Now, before some of you get trigger happy and tell me to read the
manual and point me to things like .htaccess, auto_prepend_file, google
and the like, think about what I'm really asking  It needs to
insert the header after the -body- tag and put the footer in before the
-/body- tag.  It needs to do this without modifications to the HTML
file.  

And yes, I understand that by default HTML files aren't going to be
effected by the auto_prepend_file (since they aren't php files) - so it
will require adding HTML to the list of php parsed file types.

For instance, the goal would be to take the following code:

-HTML-
-Head-
-Title-This is a test-Title-
-body-

Well, did it work?

-/body-
-/html-

and convert it to this:

-HTML-
-Head-
-Title-This is a test-Title-
-body-
-h1-This is a page header-/h1-

Well, did it work?

-h3-This is the footer-/h3-
-/body-
-/html-

Can it be done?  I don't think so, but I leave it up to your wiles to
suggest a solution

Thanks!!!

Re: [PHP] Automatic Headers and Footers

[Tom Ray [Lists]]

I would have to say yes it can be done. The way *I* would do it is like 
this:

First, I would drop a .htaccess file that allows the HTML files to run 
through the PHP parser. Like this AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html

The in all of the HTML docs it would look like this:

-HTML-
-Head-
-Title-This is a test-Title-
-body-
-h1--/h1-
Well, did it work?

-h3--/h3-
-/body-
-/html-
The next question that comes to mind is, are all the headers and footers 
static? Or will they rotate?

You will have to have that php code in your HTML docs, otherwise they 
won't know how to add the header and footer.

Re: [PHP] Automatic Headers and Footers

[Mark]

Well, my understanding of mod_rewrite is nonexistent (heck, I'm not
even sure that's the correct name), but I believe you do the
following. Write a php script to parse the file and output it with
the added lines you want where you want them. Then setup apache/php
to accept something like

http://www.yourserver.com/directory/phpscript/yourfile.html

where  is the path to where the files are located,
 is the php script (located (in )that parses
the html files, and  is... one of your HTML files.

It's not ideal, but it will let you wrap something around existing
HTML files without modifying them or their location.

Re: [PHP] Gracefully dealing with Cookies OFF

I can't remember the exact sites now, but, the issue was about how much
easier it is to spoof Sessions when IDs are passed via the URL as opposed to
being stored in a cookie.

After your indepth response, I've re-thought my re-thinking and have gone
back to wanting to support all users whether or not they have cookies turned
on. And, miraculously, I've already got it working, so, thanks for your
detailed reply.

But going back to the first point, if I'm passing Session IDs via the URL,
shouldn't I be doing something more to make the site a little more secure? I
don't store sensitive data in sessions vars, but, if it allows a non-paying
member to hijack a paying member's session, then this is going to be a
problem. But I'm not sure what more I can do to make the session a little
more secure and less likely that someone will hijack it. SSL is a little
overkill for this, as this isn't a bank or financial institution, it's just
a little community website.

The log-in for the site is fairly simple: After verifying the username and
password against what's stored in the DB, it sets up a few session vars with
that member's access level and a few other preferences. This is so I don't
have to continually query the DB for this info on every page.

Is there anything more I can do to make it harder to spoof sessions?

> just to throw another spanner into it all, what happens if I have JS off?

Well, I have to draw the line somewhere. Javascript is used throughout this
site for simple things like resizable popups. I'm not willing to dumb it
down that much.

Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Gracefully dealing with Cookies OFF

[Leif K-Brooks]

I don't have a study in front of me, but I'm fairly sure that cookies 
are much more likely to be enabled than javascript.  I reccomend opening 
a normal popup using a link with a target, and opening a sized popup and 
returning false with javascript in an onclick property.  Something like:
Open popup

[PHP] session_start questions.

[Daniel J. Rychlik]

Questions, Questions, Questions.

Where do I start in understanding how this function works.  Ive read the document 
multiple times, and I am having a bit of trouble figuring out how this function works. 
 I know that you can take session data and hold it somewhere for a user and use that 
data throughout php web pages.  I am wandering,  where is this data held and how to do 
you reference it ?  Is their a more detailed explanantion of session's ?  If their is 
not, once I get this, I will write one for people like me.  You know,  "Sessions 
for Dummies"  ;o)  

Never the less, how do you set a session name for a specific user and hold that data 
for processing?  Is this magic from somewhere or do you specifically name a session 
for every user ?  What about security implications ?  I will be running all my forms 
through secured protocol so hopefully their wont be any hijacking going on...

Sorry for being a pain.

Yeah, that would work but my goal was to not have to modify the html
files at all.  Actually, I figured it out (or at least have it
working).  I guess I knew it was possible, but I was hoping for a
miracle cure like "add_html_header".  :)  Anyway, here is what I ended
up doing...

.htaccess
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html
php_value auto_prepend_file "header.php"
php_value auto_append_file  "footer.php"

header.php



footer.php

This is a page header";
  $footer = "This is the footer\n";

  $content = preg_replace( "/(]*>)/i", "$1$header", $content );
  $content = preg_replace( "/(<\/body[^>]*>)/i", "$footer$1", $content
);

  echo $content;
?>

Any other ideas or simpler ways to do it would be appreciated.

[PHP] PHP Webmail Solutions?

[Richard Lynch]

I'm taking a survey of Webmail Solutions at:

http://l-i-e.com/compare/

It's a crude grid of "Solution" and "Feature" with user-voted ratings.

If you love a particular solution and care to vote, have at it.

If you think I've missed some crucial feature, add it.

If you think I've missed some wonderful solution, add it.

There's nothing to stop you other than you honor if you want to vote 
a zillion times for anything.

I did get rid of some idiot's JavaScript kiddie hack.  Sigh.  Do 
something nice and free for people, and what do you get?

I have a vested interest in finding the features I've pre-populated, 
but it's an Open Resource for all to use to add features and 
solutions to the grid and let the buyer decide which features are 
important to them.

Thus, there is no "final score" nor "average score" across 
feature-comparisons -- which would be meaningless unless you thought 
all features everybody liked were equally important.

Nor do I "stop" taking the survey at any particular point in time -- 
As with the other surveys (see bottom of page), you can add/vote at 
any time.

Perhaps some day I'll provide visitor-flexibility to rank features 
and compute a weighted score.  Not today.

Maybe I'll even make it look pretty.  Not this year.  Stricly form 
follows function for now, baby.

Please feel free to forward this to fans/developers of various 
webmail solutions.  The more the merrier.

[PHP] Trouble with fopen() || Win2k Machine

[CF High]

Hey all.

Quick question here that's driving me up the wall:

Using fopen(), I'm easily able to open files for reading; however, when I
attempt to open files for writing using fopen($file_path, "W+"), an error
occurs.

I'm able to use fopen($file_path, "a+"), but I need to be able to overwrite
files; not write to the end of the file.

Again, I'm testing on windows here..

Any suggestions greatly appreciated,

Re: [PHP] Automatic Headers and Footers

[Robert Cummings]

Yes it can be done, using the auto-prepend feature call a script that
turns output buffering on. Then in the auto-appended script read the
buffer a manipulate ith with the automatic header and footer. Thus you
modify the content only and achieve what you want without modifying 
the actual HTML file.

Cheers,
Rob.

Than I would suggest reading the manual page (the link I gave) to see if you
can do that.  Would you put an if or an else inside a double quoted string
and expect it to work?  I wouldn't.  Maybe I'm wrong though.  Read the
manual.

This will have no effect on JavaScript errors, though, because PHP is
server side of course...

[PHP] Re: session_start questions.

[Monty]

Sessions seem like voodoo at first, but, once you understand what's really
going on, it's actually not that complicated. Here are some links to check
out:

http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/sessionauth7may.php

http://www.free2code.net/tutorials/programming/php/4/sessions.php

http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/Sessions

http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/index.php3?cat=6&subcat=36

Sessions are tracked by your server in little text files with names like
sess-ac765JB84Ept932KCc9w0L9374. Each user to your site has a custom session
set up for them when you issue a session_start() in PHP. The name of this
session file is either stored in a Cookie (if the user has cookies enabled)
or is passed from page to page on the URL (which makes the URLS long and
ugly). 

Using PHP's built in session functions, you can store data in those server
session files just by setting variables within the $_SESSION[] array, like
this:

session_start();
$_SESSION['username'] = 'Bob';
$_SESSION['accesslevel'] = 2;

Because the session file follows the user around from page to page, you can
access the above data within your PHP scripts at any time...

session_start();
echo "Hi there ".$_SESSION['username'].", welcome back!";

That's a very brief overview. The above links provide better explanations.

[PHP] imagearc() and imageline()

[Dan Helmer]

Hello,

My question concerns the php function 'imageline' and 'imagearc'.  I am =
using them to create tables with rounded borders.  I thouroughly =
examined the specs for these methods and have come to the conclusion =
that it is not possible to draw lines or arcs with a pixel width greater =
than 1.  Could you please tell me if there are other functions that =
would allow me to draw arcs and lines and greater width.

Thanks.
Dan

No it doesn't. It's not allowing spaces, though... Is that the problem?

It's easier because you can just type it in rather than "crafting" a
cookie, but it's all pretty much the same. They are both equal, security
wise. 

Well, actually, the other problem with session IDs in the URL is that
user's could mistakenly post a URL somewhere with their session ID. If
someone clicked on this link while the session was active, it could be
hijacked.

You kind of contradict your self. It'll be a problem, but it's just a
little "community website". So is it a problem or not? Honestly, if I
somehow hijacked Joe Blow's session, what could I do? If it is a
problem, then use SSL, plain and simple. That'll protect you from
session IDs being sniffed from a network.

You have a few problems in your code. This hasn't been tested, but, is a
start...

sql="Select Numbers from dom where name = '$name'";
$results=safe_query($sql);
$DBRow = mysql_fetch_array($results);
$number_array = explode(",", $DBRow["Numbers"]);
// above splits number list into array using comma as delimiter

   foreach($number_array as $digit) {
 dofunction($digit);
}

Above foreach() construct loops through the array and assigns the value of
each element to $digit, and continues doing this until it reaches the end of
the array.

Does anyone know of a simple program that will let me specify a file

I tried writing one myself in PHP, but I ran into a problem with quotes.

If I had tags in in the text area e.g.   it would 
mess up the quotes by adding back slashes etc.

I've built my own framework over time, and would highly recommend it,

but here's a few things that might help:

- some sort of form building/validating class (10's or 100's even at
phpclasses.com)

- read up on some of the large app frameworks... fusebox comes to mind
here, but i'm sure there are others.  also look at some large opensource
products built in php (postnuke?, phpbb?, etc).  i'm not saying you will
borrow or use what they have at all, but their logic and ideas may rub

Without knowing EXACTLY what you want to automate, I can't really say

Subject: [PHP] PHP CLI question


Hi,

A couple of questions:

1) Is there a way to make the CLI version of PHP ignore
certain settings

in the php.ini file? For instance, I don't want the ioncube
accelerator

invoked when using PHP from the command line. My current
work around is

to use two separate init files, php.ini and php-cli.ini ...
and this

brings me to my second question:

2) Is there a way to specify a different name for the
php.ini file,

apart from hacking php_ini.c ? It seems I can only change
the _path_ to

the file, but not the filename itself.

TIA
