[PHP] [SOLVED] Re: [PHP] disappearing array?

2007-09-21 Thread Jas
Found the problem. I had a typo on my conditional statement.

if( $fix->ValArray( $_POST['add_order_items'] === -1 ) ) {
 $errors['add_order_array'] = $erlink;
}

Should have been:
if( $fix->ValArray( $_POST['add_order_items'] ) === -1 ) {
 $errors['add_order_array'] = $erlink;
}

My eyes need to be checked or start exercising my fat fingers.

[PHP] Upgrade

2007-09-21 Thread Ed Curtis
I'm currently running Debian Woody with PHP 4.1.2 installed by default. 
It's really stable and I like it alot. Would I run into any problems 
upgrading it to say 4.3.0. There are some functions I need in it that 
4.1.2 doesn't have. I'm not ready to make the jump to PHP5 yet. I've 
tried it on a test server and have run into a couple of problems with 
the upgrade.


Thanks,

2007-09-21 Thread Rob

Colin Guthrie wrote:




I know I definitely want to do XSLT stuff and for that I need to use
DomDocument (I'm sure there are other ways but this works fine for me so
far!).


Fairly unknown tidbit: you can pass SimpleXML objects to the XSL 
extension. XSL will use the document from it.





I'll phrase it better: one can easily convert a SimpleXML object to a
DomDocument[1], but nothing is "free" (in terms of time taken and memory
requirements etc.), so really I guess I want to ask if the trade off of
the simplicity of working with SimpleXML is worth it considering the
overhead of the conversion process to a DomDocument for subsequent XSLT
transforms etc?


Conversion is easy and the time/memory is negligible due to how the 
interoperability was designed. The whole purpose of it is so you can go 
back and forth to use whichever API suits you need at the time.



if ($xml instanceof SimpleXMLElement)
{
  $rv = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
  $node = dom_import_simplexml($xml);
  $node = $rv->importNode($node, true);
  $rv->appendChild($node);
  return $rv;
}


Why??? If you really want a DOMDocument object why are you creating a 
new document, copying nodes and incurring all the additional overhead?


if ($xml instanceof SimpleXMLElement)
{
   /* No copying, just use the existing XML tree directly */
   $node = dom_import_simplexml($xml);
   return $node->ownerDocument;
}

I really don't think you should upgrade to 4.3.0 instead of going php5.
All versions of php4 are discontinued from the end of this year, see
php.net
If you insist on 4.3.0, I don't know of any problems with upgrading to
it, but pay attention to all the extensions - upgrade them also if
needed, etc...

Yeah I had that initially too but that did not produce a DOMDocument
Object but a DOMNode Object (or something like that will have to
test again as memory is corrupted - there /was/ a reason, and stupid me
didn't comment the code.).

I think I just didn't do the ->ownerDocument or something daft like that
in the past. This is great (still need to test but I trust you!) as it
means we can work happily with either model quite happily (for two
reasons if you can just pass the SimpleXML object straight into the XSLT

It had to have been for some other reason as the return type for the

Re: [PHP] Upgrade

It really depends on your situation. 
We are an ISP hosting lots of website. Upgrading from 4 to 5 means a lot of 
sites will have trouble. 
Personally I have some problem of upgrading from 4 to 5. 

The below codes work on 4:

include("DB/DataObjects.php");
$pro = DB_DataObject::factory('Product');
$pro->find();
while($pro->fetch())
   $allPro[] = $pro;  

But on 5, it has to be modified to
include("DB/DataObjects.php");
$pro = DB_DataObject::factory('Product');
$pro->find();
while($pro->fetch())
   $allPro[] = clone $pro;  

The above is only an example. So upgrading to 5 is not an option for us.

You might want to start a migration path for your code in the near
future. i would suggest something like the following:



This way you can still use PHP4 while providing the necessary changes
for PHP5 before fully switching over.

Cheers,
Rob.

Ps. I used references so PHP4 wouldn't create copies at every
function call :)

i noticed the previously posted php4 code was doing a lot of copy
operations.
perhaps thats the only reason the code is actually working under 4 and the
clone keyword needed to be used in 5 (didnt look into it too much tho).
i always use the =& construct when assigning object references in php4.
this is another one of the sore spots i have for php4.  the reason being
php4
requires developers to use the =& construct so that a copy is not created.
i like to think the people i work w/ are competent, but less face it, in
large systems
w/ lots of developers, its hard to ensure =& is always being used.
in fact, in php4 singletons break if =& is not used.  that makes singleton
in php4
very delicate.

[PHP] Working with sessions

2007-09-21 Thread Jason Pruim

Hi Everyone,

I have a question about sessions, I am attempting to store a search  
term in a session variable to that when it finds the set of records  
from the database it can export it to excel. The problem I have is  
that the session variable is 1 search behind...


IE:
Search 1: Harry
Result 1: Nothing

Search 2: Bob
Result 2: Harry

Search 3: Larry
Result 3: Bob

Should I not be using a session variable to preform my search but  
instead use a local variable to do the actual search and then use the  
session variable to do the export?


Ugg... Session's are driving me crazy so far...

Thanks for looking!

Wouldn't that be what this code does:

$qresult = $qrow[0];
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($qresult);
//display search form

$_SESSION['search'] = $_GET['search'];

It also displays the search results on the same page and that display  
works just fine. Just the session variable that's messed up.


Thanks for looking though :)

1) Caching
2) Caching
3) Caching

And if all that fails...

4) Caching

Why do you need to reduce database connections? Is the site really busy 
enough to be legitimately maxing it out? Have you optimised the crap out 
of the database usage?


If the site really has reached the limit and you can't find any code 
optimisations then you need to look at adding more hardware. Assuming 
you've developed the site "properly" you shouldn't have any problems 
scaling it horizontally.

Hello Stut,

That is not exactly what I am looking for. If I try using that in My PHP
script what I get as a result of that is repeatedly the Phrase "Post Array"
when I check the values there. The PDF form that is posting to the PHP script
is passing variable names like "Employer_name" or "Employee_Name". I am
hoping to get those variable names.   


Put this line at the top of the script that the form posts to...

print ''.print_r($_POST, true).''; exit;

That will display the contents of the $_POST array and you should be 
able to figure out where everything is.


By the sounds of it the posted values are actually in $_POST['Post 
Array'] but use the above line to be sure.

Maybe this will get you started and give you some ideas.

Please take me off the list as I have already tried to unsubscribe several
times.


Andrew:

Just for my own amusement, who do you think you are talking to?

Figuring out how to unsubscribe shouldn't be much harder than 
subscribing, which you did by all by yourself. So, figure it out -- 
other's have without problems.


Cheers,

tedd

Just for grins, tell us the steps you took to unsubscribe.

There is a link at the bottom of every email inviting you to unsubscribe.  So 
I'm sure you began there.

Tell us where it failed.

Ahh, the old sequence bug. Funny how variables have to be set before 
they contain the values you want -- been there a few times.

honestly, if he responded to either of the two un-subscribe submissions 
that I submitted for him, he is probably off the list already.

[PHP] str_replace oddity

2007-09-21 Thread Kevin Waterson
I am using str_replace to strip double quotes.

$string = 'This string has "quotes" in it';

$string = str_replace('"', '', $string);

this seems to work, yet when I put the $string into mysql,
it uses backslashes to escape where the quotes were. The
double-quotes are gone, yet it still escapes the 'ghost'
where they were.

I even tried 
str_replace(array("\x8c", "\x9c", "'", '"'), '', $string)
but the ghost remains and mysql continues to escape them.

I check the charsets, and the db is Latin-1 and the sting is ISO-8859-1

Any thoughts on this would be most graciously accepted.
Kind regards
kevin
