[PHP] Importing Data with EMS MySQL Manager
I'm getting closer. I find that I can work around a lot of problems by creating tables in EMS MySQL Manager, which also has a neat feature for importing data from CSV files. Has anyone done this with EMS MysQL Manager before? If so, would you mind looking at http://geowebworks.geobop.org/mysql/csv/ and seeing if you can see where I went off track?

[PHP] mycrypt on local doesn't decode but does on web server?
Hello, I am hoping that some body might be able to point out what is going wrong. Basically I am running apache2 etc (sokkit) on a local MS XP machine. I downloaded libmcrypt.dll from http://ftp.emini.dk/pub/php/win32/mcrypt/ as specified on php.net under ‘Mcrypt Encryption Functions’ and configured with no probs. Viewing my local phpinfo() mcrypt: is showing up however with less supported ciphers than on the web server I use, but that’s not a problem. So I run the script on localhost. It encodes but won’t decode. I run the same script on the web server and all works? What am I missing none of the functions are returning any error #s / Falses etc. Code is attached.

Maybe you could try to use TemplateTamer. With TT there are no statements inside the template (like if loops etc), in template file there are only begin i end markers which show where some template starts and palceholders for variables, and that is all. All program logic is stored in separate php file, and programed in standard php. Aside from that TemplateTamer commes with IDE to develop in which shows you structure of the templates in tree like view, lets you conviniently edit template and coresponding php file, keeps account of all files in the project, and even has some rudimentary vizards that can offer you some code that fits your template.

Perhaps you weren't aware that every modern database does the same thing (or can if you turn it on): the results of query sets are cached at the db server and are available if the same query is used without involving a file read. If any update changes any of the underlying result sets then the corresponding cache entry is invalidated and the momeory released for another cache entry.

Like Hamid Said, if the ColdFusion server has the query already in memory. It doesn't need to send traffic to another server to get the information again.

Plus, you have a granular control on what is being cached. The sql server will only cache what it has room for. So if enough queries are run against it, the original query won't be cached anymore regardless.

Most systems I've worked on have the db and the web server on different areas of a firewall, so you're going through a lot of excess steps if you're hitting the db every time for something that won't change. The problem I have with this is where the database DOES change, and not on any set interval. I used to work at Insight, and our product database changed constantly, at any give moment to account for pricing changes, stock changes, specials, updates from places like TechData, etc. If I'm caching the results of my query, I miss those updates, and have a customer placing an order for a product at the wrong price, out of stock, etc. Now I can somewhat understand the use of this on a db that rarely changes, depending on how often rare is. Or in a case where the db is updated at a set time. Still, if rare is a time period of months, why have a db anyway? Static HTML would be faster than php, cold fussion, etc. And if the db is updated at a set time, what happens when I have to push a change out that is outside of the set time? Maybe it's just me, but I feel that the db is supposed to handle the dynamic data, not the web server. Plus, you have a granular control on what is being cached. The sql server will only cache what it has room for. So if enough queries are run against it, the original query won't be cached anymore regardless.

You missed the point. If you have to connect to a server anyway, whjat's the difference between going to a cached queryset on a CF server or going to a cached queryset on a db server? It's a wire transaction in any case. > Plus, you have a granular control on what is being cached. The sql server > will only cache what it has room for. So if enough queries are run against > it, the original query won't be cached anymore regardless. And this won;t happen on the CF server when you run out of memory to cache a transaction? Yeah, right. Does CF have to query the db server to stay in sync? Of course it does. Now there's multiple transactions to coordinate & synchronize. > But I think the original question was about a tree that took a long time to > create, and application variables would be a plus in this situation.

I suspect you may not be looking at the problem the right way. What exactly do you want to do? Normally, you'd go the other direction; that is, you'd have mod_rewrite recognize ^/articles/([0-9]+)$ and translate it to /articles.php?id=$1 ... so that a request to the "pretty" URL gets served as an HTTP GET on the PHP script. I get the impression that you're expecting mod_rewrite to translate copy from inside your HTML files, as well as recognize and reverse the translation when the request comes back in.

I've tried > various tweaks and just can't get it to work. I bet if you create an "articles" directory in your documentroot, with with files named things like "999" in it, you'll stop seeing the 404's. Check your apache error_log. If what you're trying to achieve is to have existing HTML files get their embedded URLs translated, you're going to have to do that with an output filter. You can do it with PHP, or use mod_sed ... lots of options. But a rewrite rule won't change page content, it'll only rewrite the *requests* that come in. Of course, if you know all this already, and really are trying to point requests for /articles.php?id=123 to a file named "123" in the directory "articles", then you'll still need to inspect your error_log. -- Paul Chvostek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> it.canadahttp://www.it.ca/ Free PHP web hosting!http://www.it.ca/web/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Threading & PHP
Hi, This may be completely crazy, but let me tell you what I want to do: thread PHP. My server is a dual-processor 2 GHz machine, and it's not very loaded. I have a few tasks that are huge and lengthy and would benefit from being placed in their own "thread" if you will. This would serve to either accelerate the process by splitting it among CPUs or allow the process to continue "in the background" for a few seconds after all pages have been loaded. There are two areas where I'd use this: 1) To accelerate results in a relevancy ranking/fuzzy matching algorithm I have created, and although I've optimized the heck out of it, it can be slow when hundreds of thousands of items are thrown at it. It would be easy to split the array in half and run the algorithm on both halves, which would almost half processing time for returning results. 2) With image processing. When a user uploads an image to a few of my pages, the image is processed, re-compressed, and filed in the database or a file system. This can take several seconds, and I'd prefer that the user doesn't have to wait for the process to complete.

Re: [PHP] Threading & PHP
One possibility is to have the code which first receives the request split it up into subrequests and do HTTP requests for the subrequests. Whether that makes sense depends on whether the overhead of an HTTP transaction is a big part of the execution time of the subrequests. - Lucas On Saturday, Jan 24, 2004, at 15:24 America/New_York, Galen wrote: Hi, This may be completely crazy, but let me tell you what I want to do: thread PHP.

If so, you can "pseudo thread" by assigning processes to different CPUs; e.g., run your main Webserver on one processor and a slave Web server or helper processes assigned to the other processor. This is a very common way of dividing tasks on multi-processor systems where code-rewrites to make things thread-safe are not cost effective. -- "Half the people know what they're talking about, and the other half are writing code." -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Trivial. All my web pages include it. The variables are all set by an outside process. Re CF server & Web server. It's "on the wire" (using sockets). You're going up & down the stacks just as if you're using a wire except for the last 2 levels (ip & above stacks are used).

Very true, but tests I've done in the past with PostgreSQL and MySQL-driven PHP sites show that adding a simple static file cache (for data that changes rarely) can make a world of difference on a heavily-loaded site, trimming response times by 90% in some cases. A database server by nature must assume that all data is equally mutable. An application developer, however, knows by design how "fresh" any one piece of data needs to be and can cache accordingly. E.g., don't hit the database for your site's navigational structure or news articles every single time, if these things don't change more than a few times per week. - michal migurski- contact info and pgp key: sf/cahttp://mike.teczno.com/contact.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Am just curious to know what do you guys use when you dont want anybody to be able to read your source files...I like the Turck encoder but problem is that the client has to have Turck installed on his server to use the files..BCompiler seems good but is still too young, and I dont know or have a C++ compiler to use BinaryPHP so I use codesecure instead...till now no problems...but not as secure (i think) as the others. The others that come to mind are Zend and Ioncube...too expensive for me (and quite a few here) , as I was not born with a silver spoon up my ...or anywhere else.

Perhaps you weren't aware that every modern database does the same thing (or can if you turn it on): the results of query sets are cached at the db server and are available if the same query is used without involving a file read. If any update changes any of the underlying result sets then the corresponding cache entry is invalidated and the momeory released for another cache entry.

Most systems I've worked on have the db and the web server on different areas of a firewall, so you're going through a lot of excess steps if you're hitting the db every time for something that won't change. Plus, you have a granular control on what is being cached. The sql server will only cache what it has room for. So if enough queries are run against it, the original query won't be cached anymore regardless.

Re: [PHP] Form variables + sessions, is this how it is supposed to work? - Grammar corrected
I figured out my problem but I am not sure why this is. I am trying to implement a back button to allow the user to go back and change form values. If I use sessions and register $test then this does not work, the value of $test does not change if the user re-submits: Thanks for any help! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: RewriteRule REGEX ?
Actually, it's not the reverse that I want to do. Right now the pages on my site use this form of URL: domain.com/articles.php?id=999 Now that I have upgraded my server to Apache 2, I'm going to use the ForceType and FollowSymLinks options to change the entire site to use this search-engine-friendly form of URL to access all pages: domain.com/articles/999 But I don't want the old links to be broken once I change the site to this new type of URL. So, if someone types in "domain.com/articles.php?id=999", instead of getting a 404 error, I'd like to use the RewriteEngine to rewrite that URL to the valid new URL format: domain.com/articles/999. So, I thought this would work in my .htaccess file, but it doesn't: RewriteRule articles\.php?id=([0-9]+) articles/$1 [R] Do I have to escape the ? before id \? I tried it, but it didn't make a difference. I also tried /articles... but that didn't work, either.

Re: [PHP] Using templates (Code & User Interface)
I wrote my own template system that works very well... I've got an outer control file that handles the user input, sets the variables for what the template should use of stylesheets and menus and such, and a variable for what body to use. All my body files are either PHP programs in themselves mixed with HTML presentation (I try to keep near all the PHP in the start, and the actual presentation generation at the end). Basically it means that the template only holds the basic table structure of the site, and a little code to include the files that are needed to make it into what it's suppose to look like. The way I made it I can use the same template file all over the site, or make another template and tell the control scripts to use that instead. I still haven't made it possible for the menu system to change looks though, but I plan to add that in the future... It would be very easy to change my system to allow it to use different templates or other elements based on various conditions FWIW Rene Fate would have it, that on Sat, 24 Jan 2004 09:53:16 +0300, Hamid Hossain wrote: >Hi, > >Always I have a problem that I don't know how to make my code away from the >user interface files. > >I tried to use some template classes, but I did'nt like what I tired because >some if statments are used inside the template. > >How can I prepare my code to be working in more that one template?

Re: [PHP] porting perl scripts to php
Al -- You have started a new thread by taking an existing message and replying to it while merely changing the Subject: line. That is bad, because it breaks threading. Whenever you reply to a message, your mail client generates a "References:" header that tells all recipients to which posting(s) your posting refers. A mail client uses this information to build a "thread tree" of the postings so that it is easy to see just how they relate to each other. With your posting style you successfully torpedoed this useful feature; your posting shows up within an existing thread even though it is completely unrelated. Always do a fresh post when you want to start a new thread. That means that you do not select any sort of "Reply" when you start your message. You can save the list address in your address book (or equivalent) for convenience. ...and then [EMAIL PROTECTED] said... % % Hi, Hi! % % I was wondering if there is an easy way to port perl scripts to php, or % maybe someone could recommend someone who could help me? The two languages are not terribly different; you may be able to do the porting on your own if you know php. You could exec the perl script and get the result if that setup works for you.
