Thanks to all.
First sample of interface usage in php manual:
vars[$name] = $var;
  }
  
  public function getHtml($template)
  {
foreach($this->vars as $name => $value) {
  $template = str_replace('{'.$name.'}', $value, $template);
}

return $template;
  }
}
?> 
IMHO its normally to use access type for methods declaration in interfaces. Why 
not?
Maybe my first example was not sufficiently illustrative. But my question was 
"why it does not work in one environment and work fine in another". The problem 
has acquired when i try to add "static" in my interface definition. I don't 
think that this is a bug in PHP. I just want to be deep insight in OOP of PHP5 
engine.

your right, its not a bug - although some have argued that its Sucks(tm).
in short it was decided by the devs that interfaces are not meant for
static classes, they only apply to objects - which is why 'static' is
not (no longer) allowed on interface methods. if you want to know more
then digging into the php internals mailing list archives will give you
long discussions and justifications as to why it works they way it does.
if you think about it you can see where they are coming from: passing
around classes (i.e. classNames) and then checking whether said class
implements something is really odd, instead you pass around objects.
or more simply:
class == blueprint
object == house
you can interface with a house (lets hope your house IMPLEMENTS a door
interface!) but you can't interface with a blueprint (possibly with the
piece of paper it may be printed on but not with the actual blueprint)
because the blueprint is an idea/concept.
hope that helps you to understand the rationale.

[PHP] PHP5: DOM->removeChild Problem

[Mike Blank]

Hi Guys!

I've got a problem with Dom and php 5.0.2. I'm trying to access an xml
node with $item = $objDom->documentElement->childNodes->item(0);. That
seems to work, because on the next line I can output the node Value with
echo $item->nodeValue. But when I use the command
$objDom->removeChild($item); on the next line, dom throws a
DOMException:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'DOMException' with message 'Not Found
Error' in

[PHP] if then else short form

[Ben Edwards]

I seem to remember seing someone use a abreaviated form of a
if/them/else of the type that can be used in java.

It was something like

if ( a=b ) ? a=1 ; a=2;

Anybody know what the correct syntax is?

It's called a ternary operator.

$action = (empty($_POST['action'])) ? 'default' : $_POST['action'];

In the PHP manual under Comparison Operators.

It was something like
if ( a=b ) ? a=1 ; a=2;
$a = ($a == $b) ? 1: 2;
which meand: if $a is equal to $b then set $a to 1 otherwise set $a to 
2. that is equivalent to:

if ($a == $b) {
$a = 1;
} else {
$a = 1;
}
btw: its called the 'tertiary' syntax (because its the third form)
Anybody know what the correct syntax is?

I called it the 'tertiary' syntax which is not correct:
to quote a page I found: "
that the book refers to a "tertiary" operator, instead of a "ternary" 
operator. Of course, "tertiary" means third. "Ternary" means having 
three parts and is the correct way to describe the ?: operator. 
Alternatively, this operator could be described as "trinary".

Coming a little late to the discussion here, but I don't think anyone's
really cottoned on to the fact that:

   switch ($x):
   {
  case $e1:
 ...
 break;

  case $e2:
 ...
 break;

  ...

   }

is functionally equivalent to:

   if ($x==$e1):
  ...
   elseif($x==$e2):
  ...
   ...
   endif;

(except that the $x expression is evaluated only once, at the start, instead
of multiple times).

So it's important to be able to predict how an == comparison will perform,
but because of the way PHP does automatic type conversion, this isn't always
obvious (and, unfortunately, there's no switch() modifier to force ===
comparisons).  I can't remember all the minute details, but basically it
goes something like this:

0, 0.0, FALSE, '' and '0' all compare equal to each other.

if one expression is Boolean, the other is converted to Boolean before
comparison.

if one expression is a number, the other is converted to a number (using
usual PHP rules, so a string which does not start with a number is converted
to 0).

if both expressions are string, and both look like a number, both are
converted to numbers and a numeric comparison is performed (so "3"=="3.0",
for instance).

In addition, the tables at http://php.net/types.comparisons may be of help,
particularly table O-2.

Cheers!

otherwise why not try hitting port 80 instead (assuming that allowed)

that Squid should be acting in reverse-proxy mode which when setup 
properly is transparent.

btw: Squid is a generic proxy/cache/reverse-proxy server which is:

[PHP] [suspicious - maybe spam] Using heredocs

[Tim Burgan]

Hello,
I've just tried using heredocs [1] for the first time, but I am
receiving parse errors always on the very last line of my document.
The error is caused by my heredocs. Am I using it correctly? When I
replaced the heredoc with a string.. everything worked again.
Here's my code with heredocs (and the lines before and after for context):
/* Query the database */
$db_sql = <<
SELECT  id, expiry, permissions
FROMtblStudents
UNION ALL
SELECT  id, expiry, permissions
FROMtblStaff;
SQL;
$rs = $db_connection->execute($db_sql);
Here's my code without heredocs (and the lines before and after for
context) - this works fine:
/* Query the database */
$db_sql = 'SELECT id, expiry, permissions FROM tblStudents UNION ALL
SELECT id, expiry, permissions FROM tblStaff;';
$rs = $db_connection->execute($db_sql);
What am I doing wrong? Are there any requirements to using heredocs?
I'm using PHP4, Apache, Win XP.

correct.
I have read a little about gateways and from what I have read it seems

you own a phone company? get one of your lakey sysadmins to fix up what 
you need ;-)


just like with a std net connection you need to actually _have_ a 
connection, and in your case you need to be able to reach the machine in 
question (i.e. not connect thru a gateway that only give you access to 
servers run by your connection provider).

a 5 second google gave me this page: http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
maybe that helps you on your way?
whatever you do you need to cough up money for a GPRS connection :-)

Heredoc is a strict format.  the SQL; *must* be at the very beginning of

OK Google tells me GPRS is this: 
http://www.gsmworld.com/technology/gprs/intro.shtml#1
(Sorry, like I said I've never served WML before!)

I definitely have never treaded into these waters.  If GPRS is a 
protocol that is built on top of HTTP then I can think of no reason why 
your Apache server shouldn't be able to do this.  The main task, I 
think, would then be to check the browser's user-agent and generate WML 
if it is a browser built for a phone.

Lucky you... I actually looked through some packages once upon a time to 
 serve WML.  I remember liking what I saw from HAWHAW; perhaps it will 
work for you?

This link will probably help you out:
http://www.hawhaw.de/faq.htm
I have read a little about gateways and from what I have read it seems

AFAIK yes, mobile phone companies provide the gateways to the net. 
Sprint actually has a lot of stuff out there to help developers provide 
content to their system, but I never got into it much (I remember it 
being more work than my just-for-fun project justified).

Re: [PHP] Extending a Class

[Brent Baisley]

You've got most of it. Just adding "extends MySQL" to your page result 
class will allow you to access all function in the MySQL class. I 
usually reference functions in the parent class like this:
parent::FunctionName()

You still reference functions in the current class using $this->, that 
way you can have functions of the same name in both classes.

Greetings all,

What I would like to do is to Have the paged results extend the MySQL

  $this->pageSize = $pageSize;
  if ((int)$resultpage <= 0) $resultpage = 1;
  if ($resultpage > $this->getNumPages())
  $resultpage = $this->getNumPages();
  $this->setPageNum($resultpage);
 }
}

I would like to be able to pass the results from the MySQL class to the
PageResultSet class without have to do the query over and such.
How would I go about coding that? I am not clear on that.
Also can I extend a function in PageResultSet that is started in 
MySQL??
In MySQL I have
 function fetchAssoc() {
  if (!$this->results) return FALSE;
  $this->row++;
  return mysql_fetch_assoc($this->results);
 }

In PageResultSet I have
 function fetchAssoc() {
  if (!$this->results) return FALSE;
  if ($this->row >= $this->pageSize) return FALSE;
  $this->row++;
  return mysql_fetch_assoc($this->results);
 }
Can I just write something like within PageResultSet
function fetchAssocPRS extends fetchAssoc () {
  if ($this->row >= $this->pageSize) return FALSE;
}
Thanks for the help.

Lovely jubbly!  That is all I need now.

I just got through with talking to Virgin (phone company) and they have told

few days, and having checked I can't even see their own pages!!! So, maybe
my pages are OK after all.

RE: [PHP] REPOST: Serving WML

[tg-php]

Sorry, I didn't completely follow this thread (deleted the messages before I 
really read them).

But I've served WAP/WML before.  Made a couple of basic WML scripts and was 
able to  access them via my cell phone.

I posted them on a regular web server, nothing fancy.  All I had to do is make 
sure the headers being output were correct.   There are a ton of cell phone 
emulator programs for the PC to test to see if your script is working properly 
(saving you from having to do all your testing on your cell phone).  OpenWave 
makes a browser for many many cell phones and I believe they have an emulator.  
There are a couple other big ones, some that will emulate different types of 
cell phones.  Forget the name now, but Google will tell you.

First I used this script as my index.php (default file that's served out):
### index.php
http://www.gryffyndevelopment.com/index2wap.php";; // ABSOLUTE URL 
to your WML file

header("302 Moved Temporarily");   // Force the browser to load the WML file 
instead
header("Location: ".$redirect);
?>
###

Here's the script that it was redirected to:

### index2wap.php
");
?>

http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml";>




  
  
testing
  





  
  
testing2
  




###


I don't think it's any different for GRPS (I'm on SprintPCS so it's..err.. CDMA 
I believe for the network protocol).  As long as the header is correct and the 
script is correct (WML is VERY strict unlike HTML) then you shouldn't have a 
problem.

If you want to do graphics, look for a WBMP converter.

If you have a newer phone, you might be able to do regular HTML or something 
else.   My stuff was all made to use old green background/black LCD text type 
cell phone.  Havn't played with it in ages, but thought I'd post what I had as 
an example.  Everything else can be done with a PHP backend to snag your email 
via POP3 or whatever you're trying to do.   Everything after that is WML and 
not really pertenant (sp?) to this mailing list.

Good luck!

Hi again - thought it best to keep the two topics separately...
I have just leased a virtual hosting package and want to provide GPRS
access to my email server using WML.

I have never built a site that served WML, but I know a 
small bit about it

Now I have a couple of test pages that I have put up on the server 
that I
want to view, but can't seem to get to them.  I am not really sure about
how GPRS works, but I thought that any internet server could serve 
WML as
long as it was valid.

OK Google tells me GPRS is this: 
http://www.gsmworld.com/technology/gprs/intro.shtml#1
(Sorry, like I said I've never served WML before!)
WML = wireless markup language - an XML definition not unlike XHTML but 
much more cutdown and geared toward, small mobile platforms (usually 
with tiny screens and a limited input system - i.e. no 104-key keyboard :-)

quoting the site above:"
Because it uses the same protocols, the GPRS network can be viewed as a 
sub-network of the Internet with GPRS capable mobile phones being viewed 
as mobile hosts. This means that each GPRS terminal can potentially have 
its own IP address and will be addressable as such.
"

I definitely have never treaded into these waters.  If GPRS is a 
protocol that is built on top of HTTP then I can think of no reason why 
lets not confuse the issue here - GPRS is NOT a protocol built on top of 
HTTP - if anything its the other way around. GPRS is a physical network 
spec (is my language correct there?) capable of hosting a TCP/IP 
environment upon which HTTP can travel so to speak.

your Apache server shouldn't be able to do this.  The main task, I 
think, would then be to check the browser's user-agent and generate WML 
if it is a browser built for a phone.
Jason is correct in this. a slightly different way would be to setup a 
seperate site (e.g. vhost) geared purely to WML output (e.g. 
wml.yourdomain.com) but the end result is the same.

obviously you will have to sort out the connection to the 'web' via your 
phone. then its just a case of pointing it at you WML server to view a 
page. when your at that stage you can actually get it to the fun side of 
writing a secure php app that will output your email as WML pages
hacing said that all those newfangled all-singing-all-dancing phones of 
yester-minute have minibrowsers that are capable of viewing std (X)HTML 
(e.g. the Opera mobile browser?) - in which case layout is your biggest 
problem (i.e. cos of the small screen)

there maybe a need to read/write special HTTP header 'by hand' in order 
to fully communicate with the WML device... PHP give access to raw 
request data so that should be a 'big' problem.

good luck on this - sounds interesting! keep us informed on how you get 
on :-)

Lucky you... I actually looked through some packages once upon a time to 
 serve WML.  I remember liking what I saw from HAWHAW; perhaps it will 
work for you?

This link will probably help you out:
http://www.hawhaw.de/faq.htm
I have read a little about gateways and from what I have read it seems
that it would be my phone company that was responsible for providing 
that.

AFAIK yes, mobile phone companies provide the gateways to the net. 
Sprint actually has a lot of stuff out there to help developers provide 
content to their system, but I never got into it much (I remember it 
being more work than my just-for-fun project justified).

Any ideas?

[PHP] display imap attached files?

[Fredrik Hampus]

Hi!
Iam trying too make a page where the function is to display an attached  
.jpg file
from a imap mailbox. This is a small code i found and rewrote some...


include '/etc/labbuser';
$mbox = imap_open ("{localhost:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}INBOX",  
"$imuser", "$impass");
$mno = "57";

$parttypes = array ("text", "multipart", "message", "application",  
"audio", "image", "video", "other");
 function buildparts ($struct, $mno = "") {
   global $parttypes;
   switch ($struct->type):
 case 1:
   $r = array ();
   $i = 1;
   foreach ($struct->parts as $part)
 $r[] = buildparts ($part, $mno.".".$i++);

   return implode (", ", $r);
 case 2:
   return "{".buildparts ($struct->parts[0], $mno)."}";
 default:
echo "--Size--";
echo $struct->bytes;
echo " ";
echo $struct->subtype;
echo "";
if ($struct->subtype == "JPEG") {
echo "MATCH";
echo "";
}
   return ''.$parttypes[$struct->type]."/".strtolower ($struct->subtype)."";
   endswitch;
 }
  $struct = imap_fetchstructure ($mbox, $mno);

  echo buildparts ($struct);
imap_close($mbox);
?>
This will display how many parts there is in the mail and the size of each  
one of them and what type they are.
but how do a display the image of an attached jpg file on a webpage?

Mikey: I'm not sure what your exact goals are here.  If email is all you 
need (which is what I was after as well) I found a cool shortcut.  You 
can just set up your server to page your phone with SMS whenever you get 
email.  You'll need to look into your provider's webpage to see the 
exact process, but basically there is an "inbox" for each phone 
number/account and you can send emails through SMS / MMS in that way. 
Obviously if you want to be able to receive anything but text you'll 
need MMS.

This is a bad practice when inheriting, usually -- the whole point is
that the parent classes methods are directly available to the child
class without using such constructs. 

$this-> FunctionName()

will execute the method 'FunctionName' from the current class -- or any
parent class if it is not defined in the current class. There's one good
exception:

> You still reference functions in the current class using $this-> , that 
> way you can have functions of the same name in both classes.

To make a method in the child class of the same name as a method in the
parent class is called overriding -- and is usually done to either
change the behaviour of that method (for example, if you want to do
something completely different than what was done in the parent class)
or to supplement the behaviour of the parent method -- for instance, if
the child class wishes to do some processing before or after the parent
method is executed. In this latter case, you *will* use the
parent::FunctionName() construct -- so that you can actually access the
method you're currently overriding:

class parentClass 
{
// ...

function someMethod() 
{
// do something
}
}

class someClass extends parentClass 
{
// ...

function someMethod() 
{
// do some processing first
parent::someMethod();
// do some postprocessing
}
}

So, in the OP's case, he might want to have override the fetchAssoc()
method in his PageResultSet subclass so that it tacks on the LIMIT info
to the SQL statement, and then have it call the parent (Mysql class)
fetchAssoc() method with that modified SQL.

Your subject says "regular expression help" but your problem is "with the 
global variable $mac ...". So which is it? If you're going to declare a 
variable as 'global' then it has to be done in every function in which that 
variable is to be used.

Which means here:

and wherever else.

[PHP] Hidden images.

Ok - I've finally got something that sometimes works.

function ShiftVal($ov1, $ov2)
{
  $nv = floor($ov1 + 1.8 * (newrange(127) - $ov2));
  if ($nv < 0)
return 0;
  else if ($nv > 255)
return 255;
  else
return $nv;

[PHP] Static Array declaration within class PHP5

[Marek]

Hello

I'm trying to create a public static array within a class.(PHP5). 

First - the following fails: 

class yadayada { 
public static $tester[0]="something"; 
public static $tester[1]="something 1"; 

Second - However the following works:

class yadayada { 
public static $tester = array (0 => "something", 1 >="something 1"); 

My question is this: I have an array that has about some 150 different values 
and using the second example would get very very messy, is there another method 
of doing this ? The first example(which fails) is the cleanest, is there 
anything I can do ? 

Thank you

You were right, I removed the reference to global $mac and it started 
working great.  Thanks.  It seems sometimes another set of eyes to catch 
stuff really helps... thanks.

Re: [PHP] Extending a Class

[Brent Baisley]

You're absolutely correct. I was debating on whether to get into 
inheritance and overloading. I just settled on what PEAR tends to use 
rather than go into more detail.

Thanks for clarifying.

* Brent Baisley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> :
You've got most of it. Just adding "extends MySQL" to your page result
class will allow you to access all function in the MySQL class. I
usually reference functions in the parent class like this:
parent::FunctionName()
This is a bad practice when inheriting, usually -- the whole point is
that the parent classes methods are directly available to the child
class without using such constructs.
$this-> FunctionName()
will execute the method 'FunctionName' from the current class -- or any
parent class if it is not defined in the current class. There's one 
good
exception:

You still reference functions in the current class using $this-> , 
that
way you can have functions of the same name in both classes.
To make a method in the child class of the same name as a method in the
parent class is called overriding -- and is usually done to either
change the behaviour of that method (for example, if you want to do
something completely different than what was done in the parent class)
or to supplement the behaviour of the parent method -- for instance, if
the child class wishes to do some processing before or after the parent
method is executed. In this latter case, you *will* use the
parent::FunctionName() construct -- so that you can actually access the
method you're currently overriding:
class parentClass
{
// ...
function someMethod()
{
// do something
}
}
class someClass extends parentClass
{
// ...
function someMethod()
{
// do some processing first
parent::someMethod();
// do some postprocessing
}
}
So, in the OP's case, he might want to have override the fetchAssoc()
method in his PageResultSet subclass so that it tacks on the LIMIT info
to the SQL statement, and then have it call the parent (Mysql class)
fetchAssoc() method with that modified SQL.

What I would like to do is to Have the paged results extend the

keep them updated in just one place. How would I go about doing
that?? Is it as simple as something like this (this is shortened for

class Mysql {

  $resultpage = $this-> getNumPages();
  $this-> setPageNum($resultpage);
 }

I would like to be able to pass the results from the MySQL class to 
the
PageResultSet class without have to do the query over and such.
How would I go about coding that? I am not clear on that.

Also can I extend a function in PageResultSet that is started in
MySQL??
In MySQL I have
 function fetchAssoc() {
  if (!$this-> results) return FALSE;
  $this-> row++;
  return mysql_fetch_assoc($this-> results);
 }
In PageResultSet I have
 function fetchAssoc() {
  if (!$this-> results) return FALSE;
  if ($this-> row > = $this-> pageSize) return FALSE;
  $this-> row++;
  return mysql_fetch_assoc($this-> results);
 }
Can I just write something like within PageResultSet
function fetchAssocPRS extends fetchAssoc () {
  if ($this-> row > = $this-> pageSize) return FALSE;
}
Thanks for the help.

if you want to use globals you need to use the global in the function
not the main body.

afaict you don't need globals at all you pass mac1 to each function and
use it as $mac in the function (exactly what you want to do) and return
local $mac to $mac in the main body.  perfectly legal.  If you set mac
to global in the function I suspect that you end up not using  the local
mac and are testing an empty var in the first pass of fix_mac.

remove the global statements and you are well on your way.

[PHP] oo arcitecture (Re: [PHP] Extending a Class)

[Ben Edwards]

Your email prompted me to think about architecture.  What I have is;_

a database class which is the only class with direct access to the database.

a table class, which is passed the database class on instantiation.  

a presenter class which is passed the table class during instantiation.

This means that if you want to render html you use and instance of the
presenter class but you can also call methods on the database object
directly to, for example, update the database.  You will probably want
a valuator class to validate user input.  If you have and extended
data dictionary (i.e. validation rules in the database) you would have
a extended data dictionary class you pass to the valuator (which
itself would have the database passed to in on instantiation).

What I cant quite work out is what to do about html related methods
that do not relate to a database table (i.e.rendering table
top/middle/bottom).  Maybe you want a html class which is a composite
of the presenter class or can be accessed directly for non-table
related presentation?

[PHP] Re: Static Array declaration within class PHP5

Hello
I'm trying to create a public static array within a class.(PHP5). 

First - the following fails: 

class yadayada { 
public static $tester[0]="something"; 
public static $tester[1]="something 1"; 

Second - However the following works:
class yadayada { 
public static $tester = array (0 => "something", 1 >="something 1"); 
Since we are talking about a static variable then I think your only 
option is this.  I assume you want only one $tester array for this 
entire class, correct?

Visually another way of laying this out that looks less messy:
class yadayada {
public static $tester = array (
0   => "something",
1   => "something else",
2   => "...",
150 => "Finally done!"
  );
}

My question is this: I have an array that has about some 150 different values and using the second example would get very very messy, is there another method of doing this ? The first example(which fails) is the cleanest, is there anything I can do ? 

Thank you

It's really weird to both pass in $mac as an argument and to declare it
global...

Do one or the other, but not both.

Re: [PHP] Extending a Class

[Jason Barnett]

Brent Baisley wrote:
You're absolutely correct. I was debating on whether to get into 
inheritance and overloading. I just settled on what PEAR tends to use 
rather than go into more detail.
Are you referring to the PEAR::isError (and similar function calls) that 
you see all over the place in PEAR code?  If this is what you meant, 
then let me add something.  Some PEAR classes don't require *any* object 
to exist.  These are what you call "static" classes and "static" methods.

When a class function is called statically (i.e. PEAR::isError) then it 
is pretty much like having a normal function called PEAR_isError(). 
There is no object and no properties except for static properties; and 
these static properties are variables that are tied to a class instead 
of an object.

The main benefits for PEAR developers doing things this way is so that 
they don't have to worry about name collisions and they can share 
certain variables between these "static" functions.

I'm starting to get off track (what else is new?  :) but if you like I 
can explain static variables a bit more as well.

Thanks for clarifying.
Long story short: inherit methods from parents.  Use those methods, 
unless there is a good reason not to use one.  If there is, then you 
override it in the child.  If you must use a *static* method from a 
class, then use the :: operator.

You've got most of it. Just adding "extends MySQL" to your page result
class will allow you to access all function in the MySQL class. I
usually reference functions in the parent class like this:
parent::FunctionName()

This is a bad practice when inheriting, usually -- the whole point is
that the parent classes methods are directly available to the child
class without using such constructs.
$this-> FunctionName()
will execute the method 'FunctionName' from the current class -- or any
parent class if it is not defined in the current class. There's one good
exception:
You still reference functions in the current class using $this-> , that
way you can have functions of the same name in both classes.

To make a method in the child class of the same name as a method in the
parent class is called overriding -- and is usually done to either
change the behaviour of that method (for example, if you want to do
something completely different than what was done in the parent class)
or to supplement the behaviour of the parent method -- for instance, if
the child class wishes to do some processing before or after the parent
method is executed. In this latter case, you *will* use the
parent::FunctionName() construct -- so that you can actually access the
method you're currently overriding:
class parentClass
{
// ...
function someMethod()
{
// do something
}
}
class someClass extends parentClass
{
// ...
function someMethod()
{
// do some processing first
parent::someMethod();
// do some postprocessing
}
}
So, in the OP's case, he might want to have override the fetchAssoc()
method in his PageResultSet subclass so that it tacks on the LIMIT info
to the SQL statement, and then have it call the parent (Mysql class)
fetchAssoc() method with that modified SQL.

[PHP] bug in str_split function?

// I'm expecting

Array
t

// the output is

The problem seems to be related to the str_split function not returning an

session_set_cookie_params()
^^^

You're talking about a function whose name starts with session, which is
in the sessions section of the PHP Manual:
http://php.net/session_set_cookie_params

The Cookie in question is used to uniquely identify a surfer with PHP's
session files for that surfer.

What exactly to you think this function *DOES* if you aren't using
sessions and session files?

NOTHING!

It sets the file to be used when PHP sends the PHPSESSID Cookie which is
used for PHP's Session files.  Period.

Thus my point remains:
On a shared server, I don't need to resort to calling this function to
hijack your Cookie/session.  PHP can read the raw session files.  I can
write a PHP script to read the raw session files, regardless of what
directory the Cookie is set to use to store/retrieve the Cookie whose
purpose is to identify those files.

This is not something you can "fix" in any real-world scenario where it
matters.

If you don't like that, don't use a shared server.

It's that simple.

Re: [PHP] sendmail crash

[Michiel van der Blonk]

Hi

New results: This problem does not seem to be Smarty related, although it
did occur when
Smarty tried to read from memory. Probable cause: PEAR was missing a field
in the ini file where the email address was defined, which resulted in empty
addresses being given to sendmail. Sendmail doesn't return an error, but
does cause apache to crash later on. I will take this up with PEAR
DB_DataObject people.

First - the following fails: 

class yadayada {

public static $tester[1]="something 1"; 
of course this doesn't (ok so its obvious to me)
first of its generally not good form to initialize a var in the class 
definition but rather do it with a function. often that would be 
   the constructor - but that won't do it this time.

here is how I would do it (given the facts you provided):
class Yadda
{
private static $myArr;
public static function getArr()
{
if (!isset(self::$myArr)) {
self::setupArr();
}
return self::$myArr;
}
private static function setupArr()

self::$myArr = array(
0 => 'something',
1 => 'something1',
2 => 'something2',
3 => 'something3',
4 => 'something4',
5 => 'something5',
6 => 'something6',
7 => 'something7', // notice the trailing comma!
);
}
}
print_r( Yadda::getArr() );

btw: I did not syntax check this code.
Second - However the following works:
class yadayada { 
public static $tester = array (0 => "something", 1 >="something 1"); 
you are not forced to write the whole array on 1 line :-)
also if you are using numeric keys there is no need to write them...:
$tester = array ("something", "something 1");
with or with out the keys its the same (assuming you keys start at zero 
and are always consecutive)


My question is this: I have an array that has about some 150 different values and using the second example 
would get very very messy, is there another method of doing this ? The first example(which fails) is the cleanest, is there anything I can do ? 
by clean do you mean readable per chance? how readable is the class I

Although there are many many ways of doing this I would suggest looking 
at the Nested Set Model from Joe celko
www.intelligententerprise.com/001020/celko.shtml. A google search will 
bring up a lot more results.

In fact Joe has an entire book on do Hierarchies in SQL
(called Joe Celko's Trees and Hierarchies in SQL for Smarties)
 It is a little complicated up front, and there is a lot of 
housekeeping for inserts but it does have certain advantages  for very 
large datasets.

An alternative is this really simple method
id  pathcategory
=
1   1   root level
2   1   category1
3   1   category2
4   1.2 sub cat of category 1
5   1.3 sub cat of category 2
you can actually do nearly any queries you might need allowing you 
return all node under a level (sql.. where path like '1*'), just the 
nodes directly under the level (sql.. where path like '1.?') etc..

no sh*t.
I was making a point: namely that you should scope the problem and know 
the technology before deciding upon - if he doesn't have a clue how to 
do this then its just as relevant to go for Perl and FlatFile storage - 
so why choose PHP+MySQL off the bat (and bother us with the rather 
stupid question - stupid because googling just about any combination of 
'tree' 'structure' 'hierarchy' 'php' brings up shed loads of good links)

granted he may not have had any idea what the thing he was looking for 
was called - that would make it alot harder to search for! but he knows 
now - so hopefully he comes back with a specific question regarding his 
'tree' problem.

  $struct = imap_fetchstructure ($mbox, $mno);

  echo buildparts ($struct);
imap_close($mbox);
?>
This will display how many parts there is in the mail and the size of 
each  one of them and what type they are.
but how do a display the image of an attached jpg file on a webpage?
I have never worked with the imap funcs but:
you probably need to create an image output script which the above 
scripts' output points to. so if a struct is/contains an then you spit 
out an image tag:

echo "";
the imap-img.php script opens the request struct of the requested 
message and echos out the data contained (which would be the image data) 
- it also needs to echo out the correct headers so that the image data 
is recognized as an image.

needless to say both scripts should be checking that the user is logged 
in or something - unless we are all allowed to look in your inbox ;-)

hope that gives you an idea on how to continue.
good luck :-)

Re: [PHP] too slow to unset big array (after mem fragment)

Perhaps you could store all data with an index of time rounded off to
minutes (hours, whatever).

Example:



If you make the $purge_time *TOO* small, smaller than the frequency with
which the loop runs, then old data will get "missed" and never purged.

The point being to break up your data into "chunks" at a level that
garbage collection won't kill you.

You basically need to run garbage collection more often with smaller
chunks of data to solve your problem.

Exactly how much more often, and how small, depends on your application
more than anything else.

The above will at least let you experiment with different $purge_time
settings to see if there's a "sweet spot" for your garbage collection.

[PHP] Storing key values in an array

[Todd Cary]

I am using an array to populate a drop-down and I would like to have the 
same value in the key as the value.  Using the following, the key is 
0,1,2,3...etc.  How can I correct that?

$file_list = array();
$dir = opendir($doc_dir);
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir))) {
  if (($file != ".") && ($file != ".."))
$file_list[$file] = $file;  <---<

One of the things I liked about RH9 was they FINALLY got up2date to
actually work.

Or, at least, that was the first time *I* was able to just use it and it
worked.  RH8 was only so-so, for awhile, before up2date got too confused
to be any use.

I dunno if that will get you the versions you want, or if it's any more or
less secure than what you've got, but at least it makes the nightmare of
RPM dependencies go away.

My RH9 box is behind a firewall, locked in a cabinet, and has no untrusted
users, so is less at-risk than most...

what is there to correct - you are telling me that the value of $file 
show up as a string and then magically it becomes an integer (but just 
while you are designating the key)

listen you've just shown us a simple loop to stuff some file/dir names 
into an array where by the file/dir name is the assoc. key as well as 
the value of any given item in said array - WHERE THE F*** IS THE 
DROPDOWN RELATED CODE?

$file_list = array();
$dir = opendir($doc_dir);
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir))) {
  if (($file != ".") && ($file != ".."))
$file_list[$file] = $file;  <---<
}
what happens if you place the following right after the code you mention 
(just to prove that what you say about the key is wrong):

echo '';
print_r($file_list);
echo '';

You could set the elements one by one in a constructor, I do believe.

You *MIGHT* be able to do:

$foo[0] = '0';
$foo[1] = '1';
$foo[2] = '2';
.
.
.
class yadayada {
  public static $tester = $foo;
}

but I doubt it...

Re: [PHP] bug in str_split function?

[chris]

Still no goodI get the first echo but nothing after it.

:^(

What bothers me about this whole thing is the original code was working 
fine.
It was only today that this issue arose, when I was making documentation on 
my code.
Now, all of a sudden, it no longer works. After stepping through my code I 
was able to
isolate it to this function. I have not changed any of my settings, but then 
again other
people do have to my computer. But I could not think of anything that would 
just shutdown
a single function and not other too

If I can not get this resolve I will just make a work around

Most rational explanation:

Fact 1: str_split is only available in PHP 5, according to TFM.
Fact 2: It's *POSSIBLE* to set up error_reporting/error_log to not appear
in the browser.

Hypothesis:  You have an error message going somewhere telling you that
str_split is not a defined function, because you are running PHP 4 (or PHP
3, or even PHP 2, in theory)...

Lab Test: Does  say you are running PHP 5?

[PHP] Multiple select boxes - select in one box, populate from DB in second with no refresh!

[Matt Babineau]

Hi all -

I know this has been covered a lot but my searching has resulting in not
much success, was hoping someone had the link to a good page on this.

I have on select box that when I select something in it I need the other
select box to get vales from a database table with out having the page
refresh. I have thought about the Iframe solution - does this work in
Mozilla? Are there non-iFrame solutions?

Thanks,

That is strange.  Doesn't happen to me.  The javascript should just be 
making sure the images are a supported type.

Here is my best so far:
http://smada.com/images/Snow.png  (2 MB)
(http://smada.com/images/Snow.jpg <-- not as big, but doesn't look as good 
either)

These have to be opened in IE.

Re: [PHP] bug in str_split function?

[chris]

Thanks to Richard who pointed me in the right direction. I failed to notice 
that the str_split function is only for use with php v5, I was run 
4.3.10...DOH!

In case anyone what the solution here is a rewrite.

ping 1';
 $strSize=strlen($test);
 for($i=0;$i<$strSize;$i++)
 {
  array_push($test2,$test[$i]);
 }
 echo 'ping 2';
 for($i=0;$i<$strSize;$i++)
 {
  echo $test2[$i].'';
 }
?>


This will correctly produce

this is test
ping 1
ping 2
t
h
i
s

i
s

t
e
s
t

Jochem, thanks for pointing out the count inside the loop issue. This is a 
good point to remember...

Thank,

If the page isn't refreshing, then you aren't using PHP, because PHP only
runs on the server.

JavaScript could do this, if you dump all possible values for the second box
out as part of JavaScript data.

I have no idea how iFrame works, but you can probably get JavaScript to work
right in Mozilla for this.

[PHP] Procedural to OOP

[Mike Smith]

I am rewriting a project, and have decided to use/learn OOP. I am
using ADODB to connect to a MS SQL 2000 box. This code works, but I'd
like to know if I'm following good form or if I'm totally missing the
boat. I'd also like to include things like the
dbhost/username/password, etc in a seperate config file would I...

class foo{

function bar(){
include('my_config_file_here.php');// sets $dbhost etc...

var $db_host = $dbhost;
...
}
}

...or is there another way.

Here is my class and my index.php which will present it. I looked at
Smarty, but I think my head would explode trying to link
ADODB-OOP-SMARTY. Little of this is original, mostly borrowed from
what OOP tutorials and code I browsed at phpclasses.org, but I
understand what it's doing, which is important.


//class.php
include('../adodb/adodb.inc.php');

class PO {

var $db;

function Conn(){
$this->db = ADONewConnection("mssql");
$this->db->debug = false;
$this->db->Connect("MYSERVER","MYUSER","MYPASS","MYDB");
}

function PartList(){
$this->Conn();
$s = "SELECT partnumber FROM part_master ORDER BY partnumber\n";
$rs = $this->db->Execute($s);
$list = array();
while(!$rs->EOF){
array_push($list,$rs->fields[0]);
$rs->MoveNext();
}
return $list;
}

}
//class.php



//index.php
include('poman/class.php');

$po = new PO;



$parts = $po->PartList();

echo "\n";
foreach($parts AS $part){
echo "$part\n";
}
echo "\n";
//index.php

Any suggestions or I do I have the general idea?

TIA

I dunno what you did to the first file upload button, but as soon as I

That is strange.  Doesn't happen to me.  The javascript should just be 
making sure the images are a supported type.
I was using firefox. the javscript also calls the submit button of the 
form (if the file extension is okay - which is a nice check to do for 
honest people but won't stop [EMAIL PROTECTED]@@[EMAIL PROTECTED] from uploading a binary or 
whatever - so check the mime-type on the sideserver also) - maybe the 
call to the submit button doesn't work in IE.

Here is my best so far:
http://smada.com/images/Snow.png  (2 MB)
(http://smada.com/images/Snow.jpg <-- not as big, but doesn't look as good 
either)

These have to be opened in IE.
indeed, and may I be one to congratulate you - I love to see people keep 
hacking the problem/challenge and get it working. especially since what 
you are trying to do is quite manic (image manipulation is a heavy 
science, just ask the 200K/year guys at Adobe ;-).

very cool indeed (pun intended!) :-)

Re: [PHP] Extending a Class

[Phillip S. Baker]

Thank you,

This makes allot of sense.
However one last question about this.

If I access the overrided function from the child class do I access it by.

$instanceofchildclass->parent::someMethod();

OR would I still simply just call it

$instanceofchildclass->someMethod();

And it would get to use the overrided function in the child class??

unfortunately you use hotmail - which I doubt even lets you look at the

[PHP] Issue with virtual() calls...

[Potter, Jeff]

Hello,

Could someone help me understand why later versions of PHP (4.3.9,
4.3.10, & 5.0.3) do not maintain the same 
ordering for virtual() call output as the older versions?   Basically,
generated pages that worked in 
PHP 4.3.7 & PHP 4.3.8 are now broken.   Setting the "output_buffering=0"
seems to help on some pages, but it
is still broken on others.  The content generated from the virtual()
call inside a page ends up in the browser
before the opening  tag.   See the simplified example below:

Re: [PHP] Storing key values in an array

[Todd Cary]

Jochem -
The problem is the sort()!  I did not realize that it replaces the key 
with an integer.  Instead, I should have used ksort().

$dir = opendir($doc_dir);
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir))) {
  if (($file != ".") && ($file != ".."))
$file_list[$file] = $file;
}
// Debug code
echo '';
print_r($file_list);
echo '';
sort($file_list);  <---
foreach ($file_list as $key => $val) {
  echo $key . " => " . $val . "";
}
Here are the result:
Array
(
[mailings] => mailings
[cases] => cases
)
0 => cases
1 => mailings

what is there to correct - you are telling me that the value of $file 
show up as a string and then magically it becomes an integer (but just 
while you are designating the key)

listen you've just shown us a simple loop to stuff some file/dir names 
into an array where by the file/dir name is the assoc. key as well as 
the value of any given item in said array - WHERE THE F*** IS THE 
DROPDOWN RELATED CODE?

$file_list = array();
$dir = opendir($doc_dir);
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir))) {
  if (($file != ".") && ($file != ".."))
$file_list[$file] = $file;  <---<
}

what happens if you place the following right after the code you mention 
(just to prove that what you say about the key is wrong):

echo '';
print_r($file_list);
echo '';

[PHP] help with nl2br

[Phillip S. Baker]

Greetings all,

Due to style sheet stuff I need to modify the nl2br (IE create or use a
different function).

I am pulling data from a database and using nl2br, which does the standard.

some text copy

Some more copy

What I want instead is
Some text copy

some more text copy

Again this is because of css and the designer I am workign with. Is there a
built in function that can do something like this or another function out
there. So far I cannot see anything. Or is there a way to view the coding of
the nl2br function so I can create a new function modifying how it does it.

Just asking so I do not have to create something from scratch.
Thanks.

[PHP] Notice:Use of undefined constant

[Tamas Hegedus]

Hi,
On my system (Fedora 2) we (users) can use the following php:
PHP 4.3.10 (cgi) (built: Dec 21 2004 09:18:25)
Copyright (c) 1997-2004 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2004 Zend Technologies
According to our system administrator php works in safe mode. I do not 
know (think) if there is any other special setup or not.

In a file, which is included into all my scripts, I defined constants 
(for MySQL access). PHP claims these constants as undifined constants, 
however, if I let them print out they have the right values 
(HOST='localhost'; NOT: HOST='HOST').

The output of my script:

PHP Notice:  Use of undefined constant HOST - assumed 'HOST' in 
/home/hegedus/bin/hae_chng.php on line 4
PHP Notice:  Use of undefined constant USER - assumed 'USER' in 
/home/hegedus/bin/hae_chng.php on line 5
PHP Notice:  Use of undefined constant PWD - assumed 'PWD' in 
/home/hegedus/bin/hae_chng.php on line 6
PHP Notice:  Use of undefined constant DB - assumed 'DB' in 
/home/hegedus/bin/hae_chng.php on line 7
User: haetu
Host: localhost


One solution could be to suppress php notices, but I think this is not 
the right treatment. Do you have any idea?

Thanks for your help in advance,
Tamas

[PHP] Re: [PHP-DB] checkboxes

[Joe Harman]

Well.. i just got done doing something like what you are trying to
accomplish... you will need to name your check boxes like so :
name="completed[]"

when the form is submitted, I use something like this and shove it
into a field in the database:

if($_POST['completed'] <> NULL)
{
// This makes one string of all the check boxes
$completed_separated = implode(":", $_POST['completed']);
}
else
{
$comma_separated = NULL;
}

anyhow... use explode to get thte values out... not sure how you are
using this... but i made each check box equal to a value when checked
i.e. 23, 34

so, not sure if this is the right way to do it, but i find it to be a
pretty simple solution for my uses.

cheers

[PHP] nl2br misprint

[Scott DeMers]

>From the function page on php.net (
http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.nl2br.php ):

"Starting with PHP 4.0.5, nl2br() is now XHTML compliant. All versions
before 4.0.5 will return string with '' inserted before newlines instead
of ''."

Is this a misprint, ot does the revised function actually do this? According
to the w3c, "' is compliant, while "" is not; see

why would you implode and explode it in the same piece of code? sounds 
pretty... useless... to me. I'd just say, loop over the array, and do 
whatever you want with it.


is equivalent to $_POST['array_name'][] (Or $_GET['array_name'][]).

is equivalent to $_POST['array_name'][126] (Or $_GET['array_name'][126]).
etc. etc.
Not that hard it seems ;)

Versions before 4.0.5 returns ""
Versions after 4.0.5 returns ""

There is no misprint, you're just interpreting it incorrectly.

Where do you print them out? In the file in which they're defined or somewhere 
else?

This suggests that your file containing the constants definitions was not 
included. Which means you're not going to be able to connect to mysql (unless 
by some fluke that your host happens to be 'HOST', etc).

Suppressing notices/warnings/errors is never a solution. The solution is to 
not give them an excuse in appear in the first place.

[PHP] Using List() and a do-while loop with MySQL results.

[Phillip S. Baker]

Greetings all,

I am pulling records from a MySQL DB.
I am walking through the array using the whole.
if (  $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
do{
//Some stuff
   }while (  $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result));
}

What I am wondering is if there is something I can do like.

if (  list ($id, $someinfo) = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
do{
//Some stuff
   }while (   list ($id, $someinfo) = mysql_fetch_assoc($result));
}

When I tried something like that
The variables where not populated.
Is there something I am doing wrong, or is this just something that cannot
be done (or is bad programming practice??)

Thanks.

Blessed Be

Phillip

You do realise that doing this ...

... effectively discards the first result of any resultset that you get? 
Unless that really is your intention then simply use a while-loop. If there 
aren't any results nothing in the while-loop will be executed (which means 
there is no need for the IF).

Sorry, no it doesn't. But it's much clumsier than simply using a while-loop.

Of course you can fix it! You can change your sessions handler and
save your session data in a database. For that you can use the
session_set_save_handler().

Re: [PHP] Notice:Use of undefined constant

[Tamas Hegedus]

In a file, which is included into all my scripts, I defined constants
(for MySQL access). PHP claims these constants as undifined constants,
however, if I let them print out they have the right values
(HOST='localhost'; NOT: HOST='HOST').
Where do you print them out? In the file in which they're defined or somewhere 
else?
I was wrong. In my test scritp I do not include any other file, just 
define the constants, and print them out.

This suggests that your file containing the constants definitions was not 
included. Which means you're not going to be able to connect to mysql (unless 
by some fluke that your host happens to be 'HOST', etc).
This could not happen, since I did not inserted any other file in my 
test script.

===
But now I run the test script on my local machine without any notice.
My php -v:
PHP 4.3.2 (cgi), Copyright (c) 1997-2003 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2003 Zend Technologies
The script:

//-- Ez a teszt

Re: [PHP] Using List() and a do-while loop with MySQL results.

[Chris]

Excerpt from http://www.php.net/list
"*Note: * *list()* only works on numerical arrays and assumes the 
numerical indices start at 0."

So the best way , in my opinion, to achieve this effect would be:
while(list($id, $someinfo) = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
//Some stuff
}
