Re: [PHP] sprintf problem... (with simplified code )
Sorry, this morning I have gone through everything again, and the
simplified example was wrong, but corrected it gives the right answer,
however although I'm sure I've done the same with the main script I can
not get the correct answer.
I need to round each article seperatly so that the Vat inc prince
remains the same.
So a 10.03 without vat always makes 12.00 with vat.
My test files works as it should :
Result : Total : 12 - Total 2 : 24
However the file I'm working on does not :(
The script I'm working on makes use of the fpdf php project which
automaticaly creates PDF files.
Here is the extract of code :
while ( list($code_tva, $articleHT) = each( $px ) )
{
$tva = $tab_tva[$code_tva]; // is 19.6 %
$this->SetXY(15, $y); //sets the coordinates of cell to be created in
PDF file for each item )
$this->Cell( 21.5,4, sprintf("%0.2f", $articleHT),'', '','C' ); //
inserts the item
//=> $totalHT is TOTAL without VAT and
$articleHT is a table which contains the price of each item without tax>>>
$totalHT += $articleHT; //adds all items without vat
//=> $totalTTC is TOTAL with VAT >>>
$totalTTC += sprintf("%0.2f", ($articleHT * ( 1 + $tva/100 ))); // adds
the rounded (item * 1.196) (including vat)
//=> $totalTVA is TOTAL of VAT >>>
$tmp_tva = sprintf("%0.2f",$articleHT * $tva/100); //amount of VAT of
current item
$a_tva[ $code_tva ] = $tmp_tva;
$totalTVA += $tmp_tva; //adds current item's vat to total vat
$this->SetXY(10, $y);
$this->Cell( 5,4, $code_tva, 0,0,"C"); //prints vat option
$this->SetXY(58, $y);
$this->Cell( 21.5,4, sprintf("%0.2f",$tmp_tva),'', '' ,'C'); //prints
the current item's vat amount
$this->SetXY(79.5, $y);
$this->Cell( 21.5,4, sprintf("%0.2f",$tva) ,'', '', 'C'); //prints the
vat percentage for item
$y+=4;
}
$this->SetXY(114,266.4);
$this->Cell(15,4, sprintf("%0.2f", $totalHT), '', '', 'R' ); //prints
the total amount excluding vat
$this->SetXY(114,271.4);
$this->Cell(15,4, sprintf("%0.2f", $totalTVA), '', '', 'R' ); //prints
total amount including vat
This is how I see it :
If I have two different items ($articleHT) at 10.03 this line ($tva =
19.6 and $articleHT = 10.03) :
$totalTTC += sprintf("%0.2f", ($articleHT * ( 1 + $tva/100 )));
Should add 12.00 to $totalTTC However it seems to add 11.99588 to
$totalTTC instead ...
In my test files it does exactly this, any idea why it would not do this
in the real file ?
Thanks again :)
lists-php a écrit :
your issue is with rounding, and whether vat is applied (rounded)
per-item or on the invoice total.
your sprintf output is simply truncating and rounding on display. you
aren't storing the rounded (up) value.
increase the decimal positions to 4 or 6 and you'll see things better.
Total = 11.995880 - Total 2 = 23.991760
the vat on 10.03 is 1.96588, which when you only display 2 positions
on display rounds up to 1.97.
if you stored the rounded value ,on a per-item basis, you'd get what
you're after.
now, the question is whether vat is applied per item or on the
invoice total.
the difference becomes more obvious with say 3 items, at 10.03. on a
(rounded) per-item basis the vat total would be 5.91. on an invoice
total it would be 5.90 (rounded up from 5.89784).

Subject: Re: [PHP] sprintf problem... (with simplified code )
Here is a simplifie version of my code :
I get 12.00 and 23.99 ... what should I do to get 12.00 and 24.00 ?
Richard a écrit :
Hello, I'm trying to write a invoice script but I have encountered
a slight problem.
Each product needs to be listed without tax, and at the end of the
file I need to show the VAT. In France VAT is 19.6%
So €10.03 without vat = €12.00 with vat.
So I do this :
$totalwithoutvat = 0;
$totalwithoutvat = 0;
$totalvat =0;
while ( $itemwithoutvat) = each( $px ) )
{
$totalwithoutvat += $itemwithoutvat;
$totalwithoutvat += sprintf("%0.2f", $itemwithoutvat * ( 1 +
19.6/100 )); $totalvat += sprintf("%0.2f",$itemwithoutvat *
19.6/100); }
print ("Total Vat =".sprintf("%0.2f",$totalvat)." - Total without
vat = ".sprintf("%0.2f",$totalwithoutvat)." - Total with vat =
".sprintf("%0.2f",$totalwithvat));
But I'm not sure I am using sprintf correctly, maybe I should use
a different function because :
When I have one item at 10.03, the result is : Total Vat = 1.97 -
Total without vat = 10.03 Total with vat = 12.00
but if I have two items at 10.03 the result is : Total vat = 3.93
- Total without vat = 20.06 Total with vat = 23.99
but I need it to be : Total vat = 3.94 - Total without vat = 20.06
Total with vat = 24.00
So from what I can see, sprintf only seems to work for printing
and the actual result is kept in memory, is this correct ? if so
what function should I use instead?
Thanks in advance :)

[PHP] Including files for templates
I'm trying to write a template system, my template is the HTML layout, and my content is fetched from another source. However I don't quite understand how to output the template so that all the variables are parsed by PHP. Simple version of what I'm trying to do; ob_start( ); extract( $params, EXTR_PREFIX_SAME, "am_"); $pageContent = file_get_contents( "page_to_display.html"); include( "template.html"); echo ob_get_clean( ); $pageTitle is in the template, it's replaced, $pageContent is in the template, it's replaced. But any variables within the page_to_display are simply output into the page rather than processed by PHP. I realise that file_get_contents is basically returning a string and I"m just doing string replacement when I include the template.html, so my only question is, what's the actual way of doing this?

wget http://${USER}:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/

wget --http-user="${USER}" --http-passwd="${PASS}" http://some.url.tld/
too. And since it is visible to any users on the local machine which
can excute "ps", you can put the user/passwd into your ~/.wgetrc.

[PHP] Manipulating PDF
Hi, I know it is possible to create PDF's and read them within PHP. But I'm after a method to read a PDF file, analyze it (dump structure or whatever) and being able to modify it in a valid way. And with modifying I don't mean just replacing text. I want to be able to remap layout, change fonts, change standards (if possible, I don't know). In other words, I want to have full control on the PDF and output it to my definitions. At least I want to be able to analyze PDF's so maybe I can built things myself upon the format. Has anyone seen such a thing for PHP? Or does anybody has a hint how to start doing it myself (maybe examples in Python or C which can be ported)? Again, I'm not after PHPLib or FPDF, since these libraries are either old or insufficient for what I want. Thanks in advance.

The simples way would be like so:

?>
1) {
switch($_GET['s']) {
case "page1":
$section = $_GET['s'];
break;
case "contact":
$section = $_GET['s'];
break;
case "about":
// We'll pretend the page name was changed here.
$section = "about_us";
break;
default:
$section = "home";
break;
}
} else {
$section = "home";
}
include('content/'.$section.'.php');
include('templates/header.php');
include('templates/'.$section.'.php');
include('templates/footer.php');
/* This means that the content file with the
variables is parsed first, and defines the
variables within the scope of this execution.
It's included before the header.php file so
that the $page_title variable is defined. */

It almost sounds like this is the first mailing list to which you've subscribed. 1.) Hit reply-all. It takes a second and isn't a big deal. 2.) Any mailing list in the world that you subscribe to opens you up to the exact same threats as which you've mentioned here, whether or not the email address is masked. 3.) A mailing list which masks the email is called an anonymous distribution list. That means going off-list for non-topic discussion is a pain in the ass.

You're using sprintf() with the float correctly, you're just missing how it's rounding. (10.03 * 19.6) / 100 = 1.96588 (rounded to 1.97) ((10.03 * 19.6) / 100) * 2 = 3.93176 (rounded to 3.93) If you want it to come out to an even number with the VAT added, simply round the amount first, then multiply it. -- Forensic Services, Senior Unix Engineer 1+ (570-) 362-0283 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] ob_start: Capturing STDOUT and STDERR
Hey There,
I looked at the ob_start manual and found a segment of code that can be used
to capture the output of a shell script and place it into a log file. One
of the entries indicates this should work for both STDOUT and STDERR
(29-Mar-2007). I wrote the following piece of code to test it out.
function logger($buffer)
{
$handle = fopen('/var/log/test.log', 'a');
fwrite($handle, $buffer);
fclose($handle);
}
ob_start("logger");
This will capture the output buffer until the shell terminates when the
buffer is dumped to the test.log file. This is a simple mechanism and it
works really well to keep STDOUT from going to the console and logging it.
Unfortunately, STDERR continues to go to the console which is what I am
working to avoid.
I would like to capture STDOUT and STDERR using this technique. I am working
to create a self contained script that does not rely on some external script
to capture the output. The actual application needs to perform some
post-processing of the output buffer at the end of the script.
Any pointers in the correct direction would be helpful! Thanks, Greg

You could use set_error_handler() and make your own function to echo

[PHP] Date math
I have this math equation this list helped me generate a few weeks ago. The purpose is to calculate how many days have passed between 2 dates. Right now my output ($difference) is 93.958333 days. I am finding this a little weird. Does anyone see anything wrong with the way this is calculated: $date1 = strtotime($date1); (March 21st 2008) $date2 = strtotime($date2); (December 18th 2007) echo $date1 => 1206072000 echo $date2 => 1197954000 #86400 is 60 seconds x 60 minutes x 24 hours (in other words 1 days worth of seconds) $factor = 86400; $difference = (($date1 - $date2) / $factor); -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I don't know what time zone 1206072000 is is. -- -Casey -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
