I'm not a Linux guru, so maybe my question is stupid, but are you sure

What about making an exec call, but piping the results of that call to a
text file. That way, it will be in a file that is easily accessed from
other parts of your site. I'm not sure which is more expensive, a call
to ifconfig, or a file read.

Getting the images into variables isn't an issue at all, but how do I output
it?

Current image:

If you don't have the proper INI setting to allow for the short-hand , you can replace it with:



If this made you pull your hair out, then perhaps you should go back and
get a fundamental understanding of HTML and PHP basics before trying to
combine the two. Just sayin'.

Thank you for your wonderful sarcasm Todd. But the solution you suggest just
won't work, and as a programmer, you should be just about knowledgeable
enough to know that.

However, I got a tip about something that WILL work, so I prefer to listen
to that person instead. She said;

[PHP] Time zones and $_ENV vs getenv

[John Coppens]

Hello people.

Argentina changed timezones (Oct 19th), just two weeks ago, and, as PHP
has a separate table, I forgot to change the zones both in my machine and
on the server. I did so yesterday, and have some problems. Here's what I
did:

1) Downloaded the latest timezonedb (2008.9), compiled and installed it
locally and on the server. Apparently no problem there.

2) I have a calendar on my pages
(http://www.jcoppens.com/kayak/peperina/agenda.php&uniz=1) which shows
the unix time stamp if the cursor is above a date (just to help
debugging). The stamps coincide till Oct 19th, then differ by one hour
(as compared to my PC).

At the remote server, the time seems correct (-0200), on my machine it
isn't (-0300). I _did_ restart my apache, and yes, the php.ini is correct.

One strange thing I noticed (on both my machine and the server) is that
$_ENV['TZ'] was empty, while getenv('TZ') was correctly set
(America/Argentina/Cordoba).

I'm confused... Can someone point me to some more tests I could do?

Thanks,
John

I had noticed the same thing.  I unsubscribed her from the list
right after she wrote that first message, and haven't heard back

[PHP] proc_open and sockets

[man_in_the_middle]

I'm trying to build an interface in PHP to open prolog and feed it commands
and return answers without shutting it down. (I think you'd call this
running prolog as a daemon) The code below does two things. It opens prolog,
feeds in commands and pulls out the answers then closes the prolog. It then
opens a socket and listens for commands and prints out the command that was
sent until an 'END'  command is sent. However, if you try to do it in this
order... 

Open prolog
Open socket
while (command not 'END')
   Listen for commands
   Send command to prolog
   Return answers down socket
Close socket
Close prolog

It just hangs, won't open the socket unless prolog is closed. Does anyone
know loads about sockets and processes who have any ideas why that happens?
The below code works but not how I want it to.

 array("pipe", "r"),  
   1 => array("pipe", "w"),
   2 => array("pipe", "w") 
);

$cwd = null;
$env = array('options'=>'');

$process = proc_open('swipl', $descriptorspec, $pipes, $cwd, $env);

if (is_resource($process)) {

fwrite($pipes[0], " ['/var/www/dev/tools/e2et'].");
fflush($pipes[2]);
fread($pipes[2],1024);
fwrite($pipes[0], " skip(1).");
fflush($pipes[2]);
$data = fread($pipes[2],1024);

fclose($pipes[0]);
fclose($pipes[1]);
fclose($pipes[2]);
proc_close($process); 

echo $data . "";

$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0) or die("Could not create
socket\n");
$result = socket_bind($socket, '127.0.0.1', 9993) or die("Could not bind to
socket\n");
$result = socket_listen($socket, 5) or die("Could not set up socket
listener\n");
$spawn = socket_accept($socket) or die("Could not accept incoming
connection\n");

do {
$input = socket_read($spawn, 8, PHP_NORMAL_READ) or
die(socket_close($spawn));
if (trim($input) == "END"){
socket_close($spawn);
break;
}
else {
echo $input;
}

} while (true);
socket_close($socket);

}
?>


I guess you're wondering why I'm bothering - it's just to avoid having to
recompile the prolog code that I want to run each time I want to query it
via a web server.

True, but sometimes it's easier just to help someone along.  She
mentioned that she'd tried several times, so it doesn't hurt for me to

I was, in fact, NOT being sarcastic. Perhaps if you had been more
specific about "images in variables" (it looks like you're using BLOBs,
I had guessed you were using filenames and storing the images on disk...
which is another argument altogether), my answer (or sarcasm, in your
eyes) would have been more direct to your question.

As for my solution not working--for BLOBs, no. Of course not. My analogy
of your question, however, is a bit like this:

Q: "How do I turn on this light switch?"
A: "You flip it to the 'on' position."
...
Q: "No, I mean how do I route power from the solar panels on my roof to
produce a current that will be affected by this lightswitch?"

I don't see the reason for Base64 encoding anything, but I'm glad (also
not sarcastic) that you got the answer to your question that you were
looking for.

I also hope that you learned to be more specific when you're requesting
assistance, and not throwing someone's suggestions back in their face
when they were just trying to lend you a hand with what they understood
your question to be.

[PHP] Sending mail with Outlook high priority

[Edward Diener]

Is there any PHP functionality for sending mail and attaching a high 
priority to the mail item ?


In Outlook ( and Outlook Express ) there is the notion of a high 
priority mail item, but I do not know if this corresponds to anything in 
an RFC for mail. Nor do I know how to mimic this in PHP. If anybody does 
or could point me to the right functionality, it would be appreciated. 
Currently I am using the mail() function that is standard in PHP.

All you need to do is a add header like "X-Priority: High".  It's just a
line of text.

That's limited by three things:

1.) Server resource availability (RAM, CPU, bandwidth).
2.) Server configuration.
3.) Your ISP (some, such as GoDaddy, have a cap each month).

[PHP] COM and VARIANT types

[Alex Bovey]

Hi,

I am playing around with some COM interfaces and getting my head
around VARIANTs.

I have a method that is returning a VARIANT and using variant_get_type
returns the type as 9.  How do I find out what type 9 relates to?  The
manual page for variant_get_type isn't much...

Thanks all,

Alex

[PHP] OT? my own posts are invisible to me. How to decloak?

Hi all

this may be a matter of settings on my own software, and so OT for  
this list, but I have sincerely looked more than once and still can't  
find it, so I ask?


Does anyone know why can't I ever see my own posts to this list (or  
another list I subscribe to)?  I want to.

You're using Gmail. They won't be visible (in your Inbox) until
someone replies to them. They should be in your Sent Mail folder
though.

That's a combination of the list software configuration and Gmail.
 With some lists, unless you set your subscription (where applicable)
to send you a copy, it won't.  And as for Gmail, it keeps your posts
hidden until a thread is created by receiving a reply from someone.

You can, however, see your posts in the archives almost
instantaneously.  You can check the following links if you're ever
concerned that a message didn't get through to this list:

http://news.php.net/
http://marc.info/?l=php-general
(GMANE link would go here if GMANE wasn't down right now.)

You can have the image script as part of the same PHP file, by checking
to see if it is being called for an image rather than a normal page, but
it just makes things more convoluted. Also, the base64 method will not
work in IE. I had a similar problem at work that could only be solved by
using a separate script to output the image. It can't be streamed inline
in a consistent manner.

[PHP] Grouping records

[Matthew Halpin]

Hi,

I have transactional records with the following structure

Rowid   TimePerson  TimediffGroupid

1   20:22:49Bob
2   20:22:49Bob 0
3   20:22:50Bob 1   
4   20:22:55Bob 5
6   20:24:55Bob 120
7   20:24:56Bob 1
8   20:30:56Kevin   360
9   20:30:57Kevin   1
10  20:33:57Kevin   180

(hope the formatting turns out)

What I would like to do is update the Groupid column with a number
starting at zero and increment where the timediff is greater than 60,
also starting from 0 again when the Person changes. Ending up with the
below.

Rowid   TimePerson  TimediffGroupid

1   20:22:49Bob
0
2   20:22:49Bob 0
0
3   20:22:50Bob 1
0
4   20:22:55Bob 5
0
6   20:24:55Bob 120
1
7   20:24:56Bob 1
1
8   20:30:56Kevin   360
0
9   20:30:57Kevin   1
0
10  20:33:57Kevin   180
1

Anyone got any ideas?
There will usually be more the 2 different people (number of people can
differ)
The number of groups can and will vary per person.
