[PHP] Carrying Variables
How would I carry a variable from one page to another Here is what I mean I have a send.php page and this is sent to insert_into_database.php where the values of the previous page are inserted into the database. I then use a meta=refresh to go to another page and evaluate the variable. The problem is that I do remember how to carry the variable. I believed that I used the meta before to carry it, but unsure. Any help would be appreciated! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

This could be done via GET by appending the values to the target URI: insert_into_database.php?value1=$value1&value2=$value2&value3=$value3 On the next page you acces those values via: $_GET['value1'] $_GET['value2'] $_GET['value3'] Here's the corresponding manual: http://de3.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.get Hope this helps.

Hi Will,
Thanks for replying.
Yes, I know how to delete rows/products etc from the database, cookies etc,
the only think I was confused about was that I didnt get the "blank pause"
as I clicked on the item to be removed, it was immediate...Curt pointed out
its probably coz I am on a fast line (10mbs) and that the page is using good
cacheingothers on the list kind enough to try it out reported that its
giving the "blank pause" when they accessed it via Linux using these
browsers Netscape 7, Opera 7.2 and so on
Cheers,
-Ryan

[PHP] mdecrypt_generic problem
Hi,
trying to use mcrypt/decrypt, but i'm not able to print the decoded text
without the script stopping.
The code below is taken from php.net, supplied by [EMAIL PROTECTED] dot com
07-Apr-2004 07:29.
$key = "this is a secret key";
$input = "Let us meet at 9 o'clock at the secret place.";
$td = mcrypt_module_open('tripledes', '', 'ecb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_RAND);
mcrypt_generic_init($td, $key, $iv);
$encrypted_data = mcrypt_generic($td, $input);
mcrypt_generic_deinit($td);
mcrypt_module_close($td);
echo "Encrypt: ".$encrypted_data;
echo "";
$td = mcrypt_module_open('tripledes', '', 'ecb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_RAND);
$key = substr($key, 0, mcrypt_enc_get_key_size($td));
mcrypt_generic_init($td, $key, $iv);
$decrypted_data = mdecrypt_generic($td, $encrypted_data);
echo "Decrypt: ".$decrypted_data;
//modified
echo "something's wrong";
mcrypt_generic_deinit($td);
mcrypt_module_close($td);
?>
The script seems to work, but the string "something's wrong" doesn't print.
However the script below works fine:
$td = mcrypt_module_open('tripledes', '', 'ecb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_RAND);
mcrypt_generic_init($td, $key, $iv);
$encrypted_data = mcrypt_generic($td, $input);
mcrypt_generic_deinit($td);
mcrypt_module_close($td);
echo "Encrypt: ".$encrypted_data;
echo "";
$td = mcrypt_module_open('tripledes', '', 'ecb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($td), MCRYPT_RAND);
$key = substr($key, 0, mcrypt_enc_get_key_size($td));
mcrypt_generic_init($td, $key, $iv);
$decrypted_data = mdecrypt_generic($td, $encrypted_data);
//echo "Decrypt: ".$decrypted_data;
echo "something's wrong";
echo "something else is wrong";
mcrypt_generic_deinit($td);
mcrypt_module_close($td);
?>
Outputs:

[PHP] imagedestroy problems with memory
Hi there, I am having trouble with ram memory. After about a day the system starts to swap. After doing a bit of research I found that a possible reason could be the missing of the imagedestroy() function. There is a question I have on that.

Re: [PHP] GD createpng and getting different png formats
Sam,
File size totally depends on what you're working with. For text and
graphics, PNG is significantly smaller than JPEGs that have quality
settings anywhere near close to looking similar. For other things, it's
tricky.
Certainly, reducing the number of colors is a good way to cut file
size. If you're really picky about this, you could use exec() and call
the pngcrush binary for your pngs (though this will slow the process
down enough to not be a good idea if you're running it in real time).
Depending on many factors, pngcrush can often yield a 5-25% reduction
in file size with zero quality loss.
Also, I'm not sure what you're actually compressing, but turning off
antialiasing will cut the number of colors required by a lot
(automatically saving space) and eliminate all the excess edge detail
(also saving a bunch). If you're compositing the image in real time
(i.e. image + text) try cutting the colors on each one individually
(before compositing) and you may be able to use fewer colors (i.e. make
the antialiased text be only 3-4 colors but allow the image to retain
more quality).
You might also like using imagemagick (in the command line) and working
with things there. I haven't yet found enough of a need for it to play
with it yet, but I would bet you could do all sorts of things that
might help file size (better color reduction, etc) and it doesn't look
too tricky.
Good luck!

imagetruecolortopalette, but had not taken it on board. I'm now using
it as follows to get a balance between image quality and file size
(for png output):
imagetruecolortopalette ( $myImage, true, 64);
It's just remarkable how much better quality I can get for a given
size with jpeg as opposed to png - but then I'm unable to use jpeg for
my current application.
Many, many thanks for your help.

Sam,
OK, sorry, I only had a few moments before. Let's see if this points
you in the right direction.
Basically, you can have "standard" 8-bit images ("color") and then
"true" color images (24 bit). When you "create" the GD image
resource, you use a function to do that. One such function is
imagecreate() - this generates a palette based image that (IIRC, 8
bit or less) will compress to that smaller PNG 8 file.
imagecreatetruecolor() typically makes full-depth ("true color")
images that become PNG 24/32 and support transparency and
everything. You may find imagetruecolortopalette() also of interest
as it transforms a true color image into a palette based image.
So the distinction is this: true color = 32 bit (24 bit + alpha
channel), palette based = exact number of colors + no alpha channel
I may be subtly wrong on a few of these smaller points, and please
accept my apologies if I am, but the gist is that you need a
palette-based image to get 8-bit PNGs!

Hi Galen,
Many thanks for your reply. I tried to find things in the php
manual relating to bit depth, but I didn't find anything relevant:
http://www.google.co.jp/search?sourceid=navclient&hl=ja&ie=UTF
-8&oe=UTF-8&q=site:www%2Ephp%2Enet+bit+depth
I haven't read every single one of the image functions in detail,
but I did look through them all, and at the moment I can't see
anything that allows me to manipulate the bit depth. The closest
thing I can see is the imagecolorstotal function which returns the
number of colors in the specified image's palette.
Apologies if I'm missing something obvious, but if anybody knows
about a specific function that does this I'd be very interested to
hear about it.
Many thanks in advance.

IIRC, the goal of PNG is lossless output and it outputs that
exactly with PHP. What you send is what you get out. When you're
using GD, I suggest you make an 8 bit GD image resource, then make
that into PNG. There are several functions dealing with converting
bit depth and such, poke around the GD image reference section in
the PHP manual.
Sorry if this is too vague, it's all off the top of my head but I
think it will give you enough to go on.

Hi all,
I've recently got the GD libraries set up and working with php and
I have been resizing and reformating images to my hearts content.
One thing I notice however is that when I output png images they
seem by default to come out in the larger size PNG32 format, as
opposed to the lightweight PNG8 format that I would prefer.
I've checked the archives and googled and found no direct
reference to this issue.
If anybody can tell me how to adjust the png output format php I'd
be very grateful. Although I have the feeling that this might
well require hacking away at the gd source
Thanks in advance.

[PHP] Re: accessing $_POST from another page.
Save the POST variables in $_SESSION buffers.
Don't forget to 'start_session" first thing on the page.
Edward Peloke wrote:
I have a page class which controls what happens within a given page. For
example, the code in my index page is this:
$page=new AdminPage();
$page->action($action);
$page->paint($paint);
The paint and action methods simply set include files
Function action($action){
include_once($this->actionRoot.$action.".action.php"); }
On my test page, my paint method paints an add client form. The action of
the add client form recalls the page passing in the action:
action="index.php?action=addNewClient".
So, when this form is submitted, the page is reloaded and
$page->action("addNewClient") is called which includes the
addNewClient.action.php page which simply contains the insert into the
database using the $_POST vars. The problem is, this page doesn't seem to
have access to the $_POST vars. To help remedy this, I added this to the
end of the form:
';
?>
and added this in my addNewClient.action.php form:
$posted = unserialize(base64_decode($_POST['posted']));
However the $_POST variables only come through after I have clicked submit
twice. What's the best way to handle this? Do I simply need to pass in the
$_POST array to my action script?
THanks,
Eddie

[PHP] Class variable unexpected behavior
I am sure this is something I'm doing wrong, but I just can't see it. I
have the following in my test.php file:
$a = $arg;
echo "a = " . $this->$a . "\n";
echo "b = " . $this->$b . "\n";
}
}
$d = new test;
$d->c("hello");
?>
When I load the page, I expect to see the following output:
a = hello
b = goodbye
Instead, what I'm seeing is:
a = hello
b = hello
It seems that all variables in the class are taking the value of the last
assignment to any other variable in the class.
Can anyone tell me what mistake I'm making? I'm using PHP 4.3.4 on an
up-to-date Fedora Core 1 system.
Much thanks,
-Richard

$this->$a should be $this->a
same with '$b': $this->$b should be $this->b

You might want to read:

You're using $_GET here but $_POST in the output of your meta tag,
which one is it?

A few points:
- You're if/elseif would better be written with a switch()
statment.
- You shouldn't really use a meta-refresh, but redirect the user
using header().
- Learn the difference between how php treats the single quote (')
vs the double quote (")
