CSS does not make forms! HTML makes forms, and CSS can be used to style 
them.

I also wanna add that it works for functions as well:
$foo="bar";
$foo();

would call the function bar()... I read this in the manual at some point
like a year ago... This isn't something I would recommend using as you could
in 90% of the cases screw it all badly... Could be useful sometimes though

There are several reasons why not to turn globals on.

Hmm. Would you confirm that this code snippet doesn't work for you?

");
}

if (strpos ($haystack, $needle))
{
echo ("strpos() worked");
}
?>

Because if it doesn't, I think there's a problem with your install.

BTW, strstr and strpos don't return TRUE if a string is found. strpos
returns an index into $haystack, strstr returns a substring of $haystack.

Maybe you're doing this?

if (strpos ($haystack, $needle) == TRUE)

which would (I would assume) fail. Though PHP plays fast and loose with
types, so it might work.

I assume you could use it to only pull in variables from POST or GET, or you
could add some complexity to the loop and verify the variables as they come
in.

(Personally, I agree - just turn the damn switch back on. It's always the
first thing I do to an install.)

Re: [PHP] can pdf forms be used to submit data into db?

[Evan Nemerson]

Take a look at php.net/fdf for input to database (easy part). As for 
automatically filling out the PDF, you can actually embed javascript in a 
PDF, although I'm not exactly sure how to do it. PlanetPDF.com will have the 
info, though. Also, there is an excellent PDF forum over at planetpdf.com 
which has been very helpful in the past for me. If that fails, you could try 
comp.text.pdf but IIRC the forums work better.

I can't speak for other software, but you need one of the full versions

I think you mean "forms completely styled with CSS", don't you?  The 
answer is "yes", but it would depend on your definition of "complex".

Do a google search... there's plenty of reading to do out there :)

http://alistapart.com/stories/practicalcss/ is one place to start.

If the forms are already created in PDF, then who created them?  That 
person must have access to the higher versions of Acrobat, therefor 
must be able to edit the files, specifying a target script on the web 
to which they will be to POSTed.

I would also add some structure to avoid all the different

Then:

foreach ($_REQUEST['elements'] as $id => $element) {

First, the Text Edit application that comes with Mac OS X, coupled with
iDisk, may actually be more than you need. By default, it edits RTF, but
it also edits plain text. iDisk allows you to set up an FTP connection
and edit over the network. It has the OSAX (AppleScript, et. al.)
interface, so there is a way to interface with it programmatically.

BBEdit is supposed to support editing via the web. It's an editor, not a
word processor, but the interface is WYSIWYG, only modal in terms of
switching to raw binary and such. I've used it to good purpose:

http://www.barebones.com
http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit

Mind you, it's a very powerful editor. Includes some neat integration
with perl, and should be easy enough to interface with php. BareBones's
Newer, cheaper TextWrangler is also supposed to support FTP, if that
would be enough. They have a good record about working with their
customers, too.

Hydra is a cute piece, allows people to simultaneous edit the same
text document over the local network. The Coding Monkeys's page seems to
be down right now.

I have only heard mention in passing of Pepper, but it looks like it has
returned to active development:

http://www.digitalwandering.com/ (Mac fork)
http://www.hekkelman.com/pepper.html (cross-platform)

Alpha has been highly praised by some I count as friends. It has been
compared with Emacs, although it is not really an Emacs work-alike. But
I don't find any recent information on it, the links all stall.

Hmm. Plugged "text editor macintosh" in at google.com, and got more
information than I want to wade through. Then I went to apple.com,
clicked on the "Made4Mac" tab, and wandered onto this page:

http://guide.apple.com/uscategories/productivity.lasso

scrolled down, selected text processing and editing utiliities, and got
quite a few hits.

[PHP] installation problem

[Jeremiah Breindel]

I was recently involved in installing PHP 4.3.2 on a NT 4 server with IIS 4.
We followed all of the installation instructions, but whenever we tried to
run a test script through a browser to see if PHP was installed correctly,
all the page did was load.  And load and load and load.  It never displayed
the text it was supposed to, and it never errored out.  Anybody have any
ideas?

I'd explode() the string into an array, and take the 0th element of the
array.

$s = 'here is a text what i have';
$a = explode (' ', $s);
echo ($a[0]);

If you want to match  /whitespace/ (tab, space, etc), replace explode() with
split() using the correct regular expression.

(Note: explode() takes a 3rd optional parameter, limit, if you want a
remainder string, too.)

[PHP] fread(): SSL: fatal protocol error

[Ray Van Dolson]

I'm running PHP 4.3.3 compiled with --with-openssl against Red Hat 8.0's 
latest OpenSSL libraries (patched versions of 0.9.6) and am having some 
strange issues using fopen(), fread() and friends.  Here's my code:

function echo_test() {
  $opts = array(
'ssl' => array(
  'allow_self_signed' => "TRUE"
  )
   );
  $context = stream_context_create($opts);

  $handle = fopen("https://www.secureurl.org/";, "r", FALSE, $context);

  while (TRUE) {
$data = fread($handle, 1024);
if (strlen($data) == 0) {
  break;
}
$stuff .= stripslashes($data);
  }
  fclose($handle);
  return $stuff;
}

When I run this code, the content IS returned correctly and in in the 
server SSL logs I see that a request was made via SSL.  So I'm getting 
the results I want... EXCEPT for this:

Warning: fread(): SSL: fatal protocol error in /WWW/inc/ECHO.php on line 
23

Any idea what this is?  I thought not allowing self signed certs might 
be the problem since this server is using a self-signed one... but 
adding that to my options (reflected above) didn't help any.

I can very easily force the errors not to show up and mosey on since I 
am able to access the data, but I'm curious why this is happening.  Any 
ideas?  There were a few other posts on this topic, but none with any 
concrete answers or solutions...

It seems you need to authenticate with the SMTP server. You can't do 
that with the mail() function. Try these classes in conjunction. They 
come with a function named smtp_mail() that you can use as replacement 
to the mail() function but you can also specify the user and password to 
authenticat with the SMTP server:

[PHP] Re: php equivalent to asp's instr()

[David Cuddeback]

Hi Chris,

I've always used strstr() for this _exact_ same purpose and it's worked just
fine.  I find it much more useful as an InStr()-like function than for
actually doing anything with the string it returns.  You'll want to note
that the parameter order is $haystack before $needle.  That goes for
strpos() as well.  I noticed that in your original post, you're using a
hypothetical function FoundInString($needle,$haystack).  If you used the
same order ($needle,$haystack) when you tried strstr() or strpos(), then it
would fail because it's a bit difficult to find a haystack in a needle. =/

I _strongly_ recommend using one of these built-in functions, as they will
run much faster than any programmer-defined function.  Below I will explain
how and potential pitfalls.

Only problem I noticed is that you want the function to return an explicit
true if the string is found (and false if it is not).  Both functions will
return an explicit false if the needle is not found, but neither return an
explicit true.  Don't let that stop you from using them though.  If needle
is found, strstr() returns a string and strpos() returns an integer
(possibly 0).  An if statement will consider a string (as returned by
strstr()) as logically true, so you can use strstr() by itself inside an if
statement.  strpos() however returns the offset from the beginning of
$haystack where it found $needle.  This means that if $needle is at the
beginning of $haystack, then it will return an integer 0.  This of course is
considered false by an if statement.  However, you can use
if(strpos($haystack,$needle)!==false).  If you take a look at
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.comparison.php, you'll see
that PHP's $a===$b and $a!==$b operators result in a true only if $a and $b
are of the same type (bool, int, etc).  Since an integer 0 is not the same
as a boolean false, strpos()!==false will not choke when it returns an
integer 0.

If you want the function to return an explicit true because you want to
assign the result to a variable, you can do this:
$foo = (strstr($haystack,$needle)!==false)
or anywhere else you plan to use it for that matter.

[PHP] Bug...

[Joe Privett]

Hi,

I am running PHP 4.2.3 on Apache 1.3 and using COM to write 3 reports using
Excel.  The problem I am having is that something is going wrong with this
process, but I can not put my finger on it as no clues are presenting
themselves.
I run the script through a browser.  The overall script takes about 36
minutes to run.  I have changed the php.ini values to allow the script to
run for longer than this.  The script runs, but I always end up with a 500
error.  The script also always only manages to produce just two of the three
reports, but as no error messages are being returned by PHP, I am assuming
that my code is sound.  If I configure the script to produce a single
report, and produce each report individually, it works successfully.
Therefore, I am stumped as to why it won't run the entire script.  My
initial thoughts are that it is some sort of timeout happening somewhere,
but I can't think where.  Can you help?

Joe

So why does college suck? Afraid of learning?

Anyway, you can solve your problem by simple parsing. An example is below.


This will result in "edmondpaper.com"

Obviously there are ways of refining this further, but if college 
sucks, you might not be interested in learning more :-).

No it should just get rid of the www so your left with domain.com
and now that I see what you are after it should have been:

$domain = str_replace('www.','',$domain);

and if you need the dot now add it in

$parseddomain = '.'.$domain;

No need for the preg_replace at all

Hello,

Since this is a cab file, i don't think you will be able to modify it. 
Why don't you put the cabs outside the document root? there was a 
discussion on doing something similar just this week on this very list.

If you insist on having the stuff on the document root you can use 
.htaccess files with the appropriate allow / deny directives. but i have 
a hunch you may be on windows :-)

Re: [PHP] Linking to files outside the directory structure...?

[Tristan . Pretty]

Getting there.
I'm using...
$path = "/home/risk/public_html/$bu/$file";
//Where $bu is the folder name where the file is, I've passed that from 
the previous form, no worries there. I've also passed the file name from 
the previous form, as I have the file type.
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file");
header("Content-Length: " . filesize($path));
header("Content-Type: application/$type");
readfile("$path");

yet when I get this header called, I get prompted to save teh file, all 
good, but I can only save it as an HTML doc, even though in the save 
dialog box, it tells me it's an acrobat fiel (in the case of pdf's etc)
How acn I force it to save as pdf, or zip etc...?

[PHP] session_start() : read failed: Value too large for defined datatype (75) ...

[Richard NAGY]

Hello,

I'm using an apache server 1.3.28 on RedHat GNU/Linux 6.2 with php
4.3.1. Before, I was using apache 1.3.14 with php 4.0.6. Since I have
upgraded, I have problems with session_start. I have tried to set
register_globals either to on or to off but it has no effect on this
problem.

Example :

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: read failed: Value
too large for defined data type (75) in
/var/www/htdocs/site/ssl/accueil/connexion.php on line 28

(Before upgrading, it was running without any problem.)


How can I solve this problem? 
Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I am wondering if it is possible and legal to convert gif to jpeg with

Thanx for any comment on that.
ImageMagick can read .gif, so you could filter the uploaded file through 
that and convert it to .jpg.

Re: [PHP] speed of mail() on two servers

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hello,

I recall someone (pardone me i don't save list mails) pointing out that 
the delay could actually be in generating the message rather than in the 
sending. You are sending a customized message to each user aren't you? 
Would you be creating this message from what's in a mysql database or 
something like that?

Have you tried running your php script from the command line instead of 
the web space? It could be that your httpd.conf has some processor and 
memory usage restrictions imposed. I once worked on a server on which it 
was impossible to send mail from cgi script. the apache configurations 
turned out to be the culprit.

all the best

[PHP] Urgent help required for using Cron

[Safal Solutions]

Hi friends,
  I have to send mail  to people automatically at specified time . Our
environment is RedhatLinux 7.3 , Apache ,mysql and php. I am writing a
program in php to send the mail if some
Condition is met. I want to activate this program at specified time using
cron facility.
So, How can we do that? Can any one help me?.

I have another problem also.   We want Cron to indicate ( through a message
or a mail)  to us that a given task is completed or not.  In the present
case Cron does a task of sending a mail to a user.  After sending the mail
we want Cron to indicate to us that the mail was successfully sent or not
sent.  This we want to know through a program because we want to use this as
a part of automation of sending mails.

Thanking you,

Re: [PHP] Urgent help required for using Cron

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hi

briefly: you need to create a cron job by typing crontab -e at the 
command line.
each line in the crontab has five fields which define the time at which 
the cron job will run.
more info in man cron and man crontab.

Cron sends a mail to the owner of the job when a job fails. you can pipe 
it to a program (this has been discussed extensively in this group this 
week so i will not go into details)

all the best

2. type "i" for the insert command
3. on the last line type the time you would like the cron to run, along
with commands

15 3 * * * /usr/local/bin/php /path/to/my/mail_script.php

will run the PHP script each morning at 3:15 AM

4. Hit 'escape' and type :w! to save

RE: [PHP] Urgent help required for using Cron

[Javier Tacon]

For example, you want execute a script every day at 09:00 am:
$ crontab -e
And put this line:
0 9 * * *   /path/to/your/php/binary  /path/to/your/script.php
Crontab only can say if the cron was executed correctly or not, but it doesn't say if 
your script in php has sent the mail correctly or not.
For debug if the mail was successfully sent, develope the debug into your script.
You can use a some mail classes that they have debug options (for example I use 
phpmailer v1.65).

[PHP] reboot pc with PHP

[Petre Agenbag]

Hi List

I've gone through the list for previous questions and the only one that
seems to be a solution is to use sudo, however, I cannot seem to get it
right.

Just as background:

I want to make a small "admin" utill for an intranet machine, so the
security risks don't bother me at all.

Instead of myself having to ssh into the box to reboot or do other
"routine" commands, I'd like to make a simple password protected webpage
that would have simple links on them like "reboot", "redial" etc, so
that someone with some sort of responsibility can do it themselves.

Obviously these command(s) need to be run as root, so I looked at the
/etc/sudoers and added apache , BUT, in the error log it prompts for a
password.

I tried to add the option NOPASSWD: ALL to the file, but it says there's
a syntax error.

What am I missing?

Any other ways of doing this?  PS, I don't even want to consider Webmin,
it's way too complicated, I just want a handfull of predefined commands
to be run, nothing else)

Thanks

You can write a little script with expect (man expect) and execute it from php with 
exec().

Other solution its to write a .procmailrc in root that executes the reboot when coming 
a mail with some text in subject or boyd, so, from php you only need to send a mail.

[Catalin Trifu]

if you are really not interested in the security,
then you can run the apache server as root; then you have
root privileges for your PHP scripts.
then you can use the system() function with no restrictions

RE: [PHP] reboot pc with PHP

[Javier Tacon]

A more easy solution is that:

Make a cron that executes every minut /tmp/rreboot.sh for user root
crontab -e
Add the line:
* * * * *  /tmp/rreboot.sh

The script is:
/tmp/rreboot.sh
---
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f "/tmp/rreboot" ]; then
 rm -f /tmp/rreboot
 shutdown -r now
fi
---
Make executable the file with chmod +x /tmp/rreboot.sh

And a simple PHP like:
 /tmp/rreboot");
echo "Ok, i'll reboot in a few seconds";
?>


So, when anyone calls to this PHP, creates a file, that if its detected by rreboot.sh, 
the root will reboot the machine.

just one little point (i'm glad i don't have to give a setuid lecture) personally
i would make sure that the location of the check file is extremely secure.

under normal circumstances, any user could write the rreboot file and cause a reboot

also, remember to remove the file again in rc.local before cron starts etc.

but i like the idea. its much more secure (from a web perspective).

[PHP] Including classes inside functions vs outside - scope/globalquestion?

[Verdon vaillancourt]

Hi :)

Somewhat newbie question...

I'm trying to include some open source classes into a project I am working
on. The classes build a set of relational select menus from the contents of
two tables. I have not trouble using the classes in a simple test page, but
am running into problems when I try to use them as part of a function. For
instance the following works just fine...

init() ;
$ls = new linked_select("conn","testselect","clients","Select
Client","id","company",1,"pieces","Select
Piece","id","title","client_id",0,1) ;
$ls->create_javascript();
$ls->create_base_select();
$ls->create_sub_select_multi();
// the end of the class stuff

echo "a bunch more of my own stuff";

include("foot.php");
?>

While this does not...

init() ;
$ls = new linked_select("conn","testselect","clients","Select
Client","id","company",1,"pieces","Select
Piece","id","title","client_id",0,1) ;
$ls->create_javascript();
$ls->create_base_select();
$ls->create_sub_select_multi();
// the end of the class stuff
echo "a bunch more of my own stuff";
}

$main_content = whatever();
echo "$main_content";

include("foot.php");
?>

It returns an error like 'Call to undefined function:  debug() in
/xxx/xxx/mysql_recordset.php on line 40'. When I check this line out, it is
' $GLOBALS[$this->connobj]->debug() ;'.

Now I know this function exists (it's in the required file
'mysql_connection.php'), and works from my simple test. Quickly commenting
out the line 40 allows the page to finish rendering, but the select menus
are empty, so my guess is the 'connobj' is not being passed along or the 3
required class files are not talking to each other in some way ;)

Doing some reading in the manual tells me it's a scope issue (I think). I
thought though that $GLOBALS was a super global but I guess I just don't get
the concept yet. I've tried declaring all sorts of things as global in my
function whatever() to no avail.

Is there something really basic that I am missing in understanding, or is
this a more complex thing?

TIA,
Verdon
Ps. Cc'ing to me when/if replying to list would be appreciated as I am on
digest mode :)

RE: [PHP] reboot pc with PHP

[Javier Tacon]

Exactly ..
Well, the script removes the rreboot file before the shutdown.

For security choose a directory for rreboot file placed in a directory that only can 
be readed/writed by apache, and the php file in the example its very simple, but you 
can ask for a password, create a log, etc ..

chown 700 /directory/for/rrebootfile
chown apache.nobody /directory/for/rrebootfile

just one little point (i'm glad i don't have to give a setuid lecture) personally
i would make sure that the location of the check file is extremely secure.

under normal circumstances, any user could write the rreboot file and cause a reboot

also, remember to remove the file again in rc.local before cron starts etc.

but i like the idea. its much more secure (from a web perspective).

Re: [PHP] reboot pc with PHP

[Matthew Harrison]

of course, i've only just seen that the script removes it. it's been a long
day, my apologies.

just out of curiosity, why would you want the ability to reboot your box
like that?

[PHP] PHP5 - self referencing classes

[Thomas Hebinck]

Hi all,

I have a class which creates a new object and caches this object (see source
at the bottom). The new object holds a link on the creator class.
The __descructor function of both classes are never called - because the
classes are destroyed (killed), when the script terminates.

Is there a way to "destruct" a class on another way manually?

Does anyone know about any deeper documentation about objects in PHP5?

Thanks!

Bye,
Thomas.

-

';
  }

  function __destruct() {
echo __CLASS__ . '::' . __FUNCTION__ . '';
  }

  function get_b() {
if (!isset($this->b)) {
  $this->b=new b($this);
}
return $this->b;
  }
}

class b {
  private $p_caller;

  function __construct($caller) {
echo __CLASS__ . '::' . __FUNCTION__ . '';
$this->p_caller=$caller;
  }

  function __destruct() {
echo __CLASS__ . '::' . __FUNCTION__ . '';
  }
}

$a=new a;
$b=$a->get_b();
unset($a);
unset($b);

?>

Just prints:

a::__construct
b::__construct

[PHP] building php witk libiconv

[Alain Bonnefoy]

Hi,

I don't know what to do with libiconv to build php4.3.3.
My libiconv-1.9 is installed in /opt
if I invoke configure  --with-iconv=/opt the script runs fine but I 
get the following message at compile time:

gcc: /usr//lib/.libs/libiconv.so: No such file or directory
gcc: /opt//lib/.libs/libiconv.so: No such file or directory
What is strange is that /lib/.libs is a directory tree in the 
libiconv-1.9 source directory.
So, I tried to invoke configure  
--with-iconv=/home/a.bonnefoy/portage/libiconv-1.9.
But now configure complains asking me to reinstall libiconv.

What to do???

Thanks,
Alain.

You need to compile PHP with the option --with-gd in the configure step.

The function is imagecreatefromjpeg()

[PHP] var static

[Alvaro Martinez]

I want to obtain only one instance of one class. In other to do that, I call
to a static method, that creates the instance(if it doesnt exit) or returns
the reference of the instance.
The call to the static method is the next:

   $conexiondb=db::getInstancia();

Well, but if I call to db::getInstancia() another time, I obtain another new
object  :-(

The code of the db class is the next (it is a Singleton Pattern, but it
doesnt work)

class db{
   var $_miInstancia;

   function db (){
  // funcion que se conecta con la BBDD
 static $miInstancia;
 $this->_miInstancia=&$miInstancia;

 $result = @mysql_pconnect("inforalv", "discoteca", "password");
 if (!$result)
   return false;
 if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]("discoteca"))
   return false;
   }

&function getInstancia(){
   if (!isset($this))
  $_miInstancia=new db();
   return $_miInstancia;
}
}

I think that the problem is that the var _miInstance is not static and I
dont know how to do it.
Could you please tell me if there is anything wrong?

Thanks.

Alvaro

:) no, I was think in terms of how easy is to write template oriented

things, that is why I used "I think" fomulation :). Anyhow, it was not my
intent to refer to the execution efficiency. My appologoizes for beeing
misleading.

I'll take a look, but I am not sure I could fit into the structure of the
benchmark. Problem is that this benchmark oriented towards the simple
templating class (or functions) that user has to initialize and make some
calls in order to has his variables substituted. This benchmark then wraps
this substitution calls in the loop to see how efficient is template engine
at simple variable substitutions.

TemplateTamer works other way around, it basically provides you a light
framework, and code generator. You as a progaramer have a duty to provide
the data for the variables (by returning them in the array as result of the
getData() function), and there is no more you are doing. You do not
initialize templates, you do not load various template files into the
template engine, you do not assign variable one by one, you do not call
substitute function, you do not echo the youtput in order for your page to
appear. All this is handled by code that was generated by TemplateTamer or
by framework. Actually first (internal) versions of TemplateTamer did not
have its own template engine, they were just using FastTemplate for the
task.

I believe such approach can be a real time saver and more easy way to work,
but it seems difficult to fit into your benchmark, but I will give it a try
if nothing else to get one more link :) . Another problem is that thing that
is benchmarked is plain page without structure. No subtemplates, not
conditional parts, no repeated subtemplates. And I believe this is where the
real action is for the templates, and this is all you have in the real world
situations. Also I believe that in real world situations, time that is spent
in the any template engine is not that important, usually the bottleneck is
somewhere else, database most usually. But I am driffting.

Thanks for the response!

[PHP] PHP won't parse under https, but will with http

[Jason Jacobs]

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but I'm hoping someone can 
help nonetheless. :)

I installed an SSL Cert. on a site the other day for a checkout page, and the php 
won't parse.  If I take the "s" off, it parses just fine.  I have a feeling it's an 
httpd.conf setting, but I don't know where to look.  Maybe it's a php.ini issue to 
make it parse on port (whatever SSL is)?  Thanks for any suggestions.

[PHP] Parsing Current Server Domain

[jeffrey pearson]

Does anyone know how I would parse the domain that scripts are currently being 
executed in?

For example:

I use seperate domains for development and production. There are times I have to 
specify a hard coded url instead of a relative one. So for the development it would be;

dev.domain.com/somefile.php

where on the live site it would be

www.domain.com/somefile.php

I would like the script to be able to parse the domain part so it would be;

$currentdomain/somefile.php


AAny suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

In most cases $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] is what you want.  It wont be
available if you access the site with the ip address.

[PHP] Re: Including classes inside functions vs outside - scope/global

[Greg Beaver]

Hi Verdon,

Be sure that $connobj is declared as a global variable in the 
mysql_connection.php file.  You can do this in two ways:

1) instead of $connobj = blah, use $GLOBALS['connobj'] = blah
2) global $connobj; $connobj = blah
Regards,
Greg

Hi :)

Somewhat newbie question...

I'm trying to include some open source classes into a project I am working
on. The classes build a set of relational select menus from the contents of
two tables. I have not trouble using the classes in a simple test page, but
am running into problems when I try to use them as part of a function. For
instance the following works just fine...

include_once("config.php");
include_once ("functions.php");
include_once("head.php");
loginCheck(3);
global $config;
echo "a bunch of my own stuff";

// this is the class stuff I am trying to include
require("mysql_connection.php");
require("mysql_recordset.php");
require ("linked_select_class.php");
$conn = new mysql_conn("localhost","user","pass","database") ;
$conn->init() ;
$ls = new linked_select("conn","testselect","clients","Select
Client","id","company",1,"pieces","Select
Piece","id","title","client_id",0,1) ;
$ls->create_javascript();
$ls->create_base_select();
$ls->create_sub_select_multi();
// the end of the class stuff
echo "a bunch more of my own stuff";

include("foot.php");
?>
While this does not...


include_once("config.php");
include_once ("functions.php");
include_once("head.php");
loginCheck(3);
global $config;
function whatever() {
global $config;
echo "a bunch of my own stuff";
// this is the class stuff I am trying to include
require("mysql_connection.php");
require("mysql_recordset.php");
require ("linked_select_class.php");
$conn = new mysql_conn("localhost","user","pass","database") ;
$conn->init() ;
$ls = new linked_select("conn","testselect","clients","Select
Client","id","company",1,"pieces","Select
Piece","id","title","client_id",0,1) ;
$ls->create_javascript();
$ls->create_base_select();
$ls->create_sub_select_multi();
// the end of the class stuff
echo "a bunch more of my own stuff";
}
$main_content = whatever();
echo "$main_content";
include("foot.php");
?>
It returns an error like 'Call to undefined function:  debug() in
/xxx/xxx/mysql_recordset.php on line 40'. When I check this line out, it is
' $GLOBALS[$this->connobj]->debug() ;'.
Now I know this function exists (it's in the required file
'mysql_connection.php'), and works from my simple test. Quickly commenting
out the line 40 allows the page to finish rendering, but the select menus
are empty, so my guess is the 'connobj' is not being passed along or the 3
required class files are not talking to each other in some way ;)
Doing some reading in the manual tells me it's a scope issue (I think). I
thought though that $GLOBALS was a super global but I guess I just don't get
the concept yet. I've tried declaring all sorts of things as global in my
function whatever() to no avail.
Is there something really basic that I am missing in understanding, or is
this a more complex thing?
TIA,
Verdon
Ps. Cc'ing to me when/if replying to list would be appreciated as I am on

Try to add --with-jpeg, but probably you need to install some libraries, like libjpeg

[PHP] var static

[Alvaro Martinez]

I want to obtain only one instance of one class. In other to do that, I call
to a static method, that creates the instance(if it doesnt exit) or returns
the reference of the instance.
The call to the static method is the next:

   $conexiondb=db::getInstancia();

Well, but if I call to db::getInstancia() another time, I obtain another new
object  :-(

The code of the db class is the next (it is a Singleton Pattern, but it
doesnt work)

class db{
   var $_miInstancia;

   function db (){
  // funcion que se conecta con la BBDD
 static $miInstancia;
 $this->_miInstancia=&$miInstancia;

 $result = @mysql_pconnect("inforalv", "discoteca", "password");
 if (!$result)
   return false;
 if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]("discoteca"))
   return false;
   }

&function getInstancia(){
   if (!isset($this))
  $_miInstancia=new db();
   return $_miInstancia;
}
}

I think that the problem is that the var _miInstance is not static and I
dont know how to do it.
Could you please tell me if there is anything wrong?

Thanks.

[PHP] LWP::Parallel in PHP

[Alex]

Hello all!
I am looking for PHP analog of Perl LWP::Parallel.
I need to fetch several URL(pages) from PHP at the same time.
I have a script which fetch 5-10 URL, each URL fetched 0.5 - 2 sec.
Totally it's about 10 seconds in average.
I suppose if I fetched them parallel I would speed up the script 5 times.
I am looking mostly for PHP solutions.
(Hope they exist :)

Have anybody faced with such problem?
Any ideas/suggestions will be appreciated.

Alex.

[PHP] Re: PHP won't parse under https, but will with http

[Jason Jacobs]

>> Is this a virtual host ? How did you define the AddType in httpd.conf ?
Yes.  And I believe our AddTypes are set for each v-host.  In this case, the v-host 
has its own AddTypes.

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Like I mentioned, the php works fine with http.  Also, html files work fine.

>> Also check that u'r apache listens to 443. 
I tried to add Listen 443, but the server start failed saying something like no 
listening sockets available.  I also tried Listen 64.83.52.19:443, but I got the same 
thing.  I checked to make sure that mod_ssl was loaded, and while I didn't see it in 
the LoadModule list, httpd told me it was already loaded when I added it to the list.

I now know this is an Apache issue, so if I should take it to an Apache list I can do 
that.  Thanks!

static calls to a class will never have $this set so you have to set
your reference globally something like this:

c = $count;
// funcion que se conecta con la BBDD
$result = @mysql_pconnect("inforalv", "discoteca", "password");
if (!$result)
return false;
if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]("discoteca"))
return false;
}
function &getInstancia($count=false){
global $_miInstancia;
if (!isset($_miInstancia['db'])){
new db($count);
}
return $_miInstancia;
}
}
$conexiondb =& db::getInstancia(1);
print_r($conexiondb);
$conexiondb2 =& db::getInstancia();
print_r($conexiondb2);

?>

(The $count was just to prove we only have the one instance)

[PHP] Loading advise (no problem)

[Ryan A]

Hi,
No problem, Just need a little advise on improving my page display time, let
me explain:

I am using some ad software (written in php) which is giving me 5 ads
(banners) to display on a page dynamically (eg: they rotate, banner code is
given at the end of this mail)
I have put all 5 banners on a page my themselfes, renamed the file to
TestingAds.php and used a microtime function to see whats the script
execution time like so:


html and banner code here


I ran TestingAds.php 10 times and these are the numbers, you dont have to
take an averige to see they are pretty good:
 0.00024902820587158
 0.00027501583099365
 0.00025904178619385
 0.00027906894683838
 0.00043702125549316
 0.00036203861236572
 0.00045394897460938
 0.00024497509002686
 0.00025498867034912
 0.00025796890258789

then i took those ads and placed them exactly where they have to go on my
index.php page, then reloaded the page 10 times and got these numbers:
 0.00018906593322754
 0.00066602230072021
 0.00055098533630371
 0.00054502487182617
 0.00054800510406494
 0.00055789947509766
 0.00054597854614258
 0.00056195259094238
 0.00056302547454834
 0.00049996376037598

The numbers look pretty good (i think), but when i actually visit the page
it takes  a bit long to load...even though I am on a pretty fast connection,
any idea why this is the case? my page takes around 20 seconds to load and
there is a white screen till everything is loaded then BLAM its all done.
What can i do so that my page loads faster or atleast shows the page to the
visitor and then loads one ad after another so the visitor can see the page
loading instead of just a white screen?


This is the banner code:
http://jumac.com/ads/ads.php?jscript;zone=tower";>http://jumac.com/ads/ads.php?iframe;zone=tower"; MARGINWIDTH=0
MARGINHEIGHT=0 HSPACE=0 VSPACE=0 FRAMEBORDER=0 SCROLLING=NO WIDTH=121
HEIGHT=601>http://jumac.com/ads/ads.php?banner=NonSSI;page=01;zone=tower";
TARGET="_blank">http://jumac.com/ads/ads.php?page=01;zone=tower";
BORDER=0>

here is the TestingAds page:
http://bestwebhosters.com/TestingAds.php

I have not included the main page that i have already setup the ads because
right now its still be touched up and nothing on the page works but if you
still want to see it just write to me and tell me.

Thanks for your time.
Cheers,
-Ryan

Think you're out of luck. Yes, it's a problem I've run up against more than
once. There's no thread support in PHP [4. Anyone know if it's in 5?].

I suppose you might be able to hack something together by spawning external
processes, but... might as well just do it all externally then.

Re: [PHP] var static

I've found the solution myself.
The db class is the next:

class db{

function db (){
// funcion que se conecta con la BBDD
$result = @mysql_pconnect("inforalv", "discoteca", "password");
if (!$result)
return false;
if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]("discoteca"))
return false;
}

function &getInstancia(){
static $miInstancia;
if (!get_class($miInstancia) == 'db')
$miInstancia=new db();
return $miInstancia;
}


and the call to this class is the next:

$conexiondb1=&db::getInstancia();
$conexiondb2=&db::getInstancia();

In the second call I obtain the same object.

Muchas gracias por vuestra ayuda

Re: [PHP] var static

[Robert Cummings]

Globals!? YUCK :) A better solution IMHO that maintains encapsulation,
is to use a static var in a function:

function &getClassVar( $name )
{
return getAndSetClassVar( $name, false );
}

function &setClassVar( $name, $value )
{
return getAndSetClassVar( $name, true, $value );
}

function &getAndSetClassVar( $name, $set, &$value )
{
static $classVars = array();

if( !$set )
{
return $classVars[$name];
}

$classVars[$name] = &$value;

return $value;
}

Admittedly this is slower than using a global, but it doesn't pollute
the global scope and ensures you'll never have naming conflicts.

HTH,
Rob.

[PHP] Question about mail()

[Matthias Wulkow]

Hi php-general,


I have a question about the mail function. In the API I saw, that when
running on linux, I just need the binary sendmail, usually located on
/usr/sbin. Windows users need a running mail-server.
I have php working on a linux machine. Why do I need to have postfix running then to 
make it work? I posted
before, because no mails were sent. I had the sendmail-binary
(postfix) installed, but postfix was not running.
Maybe someone can explain it to me...

SvT
