Mike,
Certain characters are considered "special" in RegEx. The $ means "end
of the line," so it must be escaped to avoid confusing its meaning. I
was not sure it had to be escaped within a character set [], but that
may very well be the case. Try this:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\((\s*\$?[-_a-z0-9]+\s*,?)*\s*\)/i';
The word "function" is followed by 1 or more spaces (or tabs). The
function name [-_a-z0-9] can be a combination of alpha-numeric
characters, underscore, and dash. Then, there is optional whitespace
between the name of the function and its parameters. The opening
parenthesis "(" for parameters has been escaped (as has the closing
parenthesis). Then, in a repeatable capture group, the parameters can be
grabbed: Indefinite whitespace, an optional $ (because maybe you're not
using a variable, eh?), one or more alpha-numeric, underscore, or dash
characters, followed by indefinite whitespace and an optional comma (if
there are more arguments). After any number of instances of the capture
group, the regex continues by looking for indefinite whitespace followed
by the closing parenthesis for the function text. The "i" switch at the
end simply means that this regex pattern will be treated as
case-insensitive ('APPLE' == 'apple').
If you're not worried about actually splitting up the function
parameters into capture groups, then you can just use a look-ahead to
ensure that you grab everything up till the LAST parenthesis on the
line.
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?\)(?=.*\)[^)]*)/i';
That one probably needs to be tweaked a bit in order to actually grab
the last parenthesis (instead of just checking for its existence). If
you're willing to trust the text you'll be searching through, you can
probably avoid that "last parenthesis" rule altogether, and make a lazy
regex:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?/i';
Once you get to the opening parenthesis for the function parameters,
that last regex assumes that the rest of the line will also include that
function declaration, and just grabs everything left. If you are using a
regex setup to where the dot marker can also consume newline or carriage
return characters, just throw a "$" at the end of the regex (before the
flags part "/i") in order to tell it just to grab characters until it
reaches the end of the line:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?$/i';
These are all untested, but hopefully I've given you a nudge in the
right direction. If you are still getting strange behavior out of your
PCRE engine, then perhaps you have a different version installed than
what I'm used to--all of the above should work (perhaps with some very
minor changes) in PHP.
HTH,
// Todd

The PHP site's page on ini_set() [1] talks a bit about how to set that particular option in an .htaccess file: set PHP_INI_PERDIR settings in a .htaccess file with 'php_flag' like this: php_flag register_globals off php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on If you can get at your .htaccess, maybe you could do it that way (since I don't believe you can change magic_quotes_gpc using ini_set() or similar methods).

Re: [PHP] fread question
PHP does *not* do the addslashes on $_POST when you cram something into it in your PHP code. It does it during the process of auto-filling up $_POST. So either: A) you have magic_quotes_runtime turned on LOCALLY. Use phpinfo() to see. B) you actually managed to put the backslashes into your text file. PS You really shouldn't be cramming data into $_POST, imho. Too confusing for later development/maintenance. $_POST should be "read only" Copy the parts of $_POST you want into something else, and add in your file contents as well. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You are using preg_quote(). This will add slashes to every "special" RegEx

performing your RegEx search without using preg_quote() and let me know if it

I had always thought that faxes were a big no-no for character recognition software? I know that we can't use it for one of our OCR solutions because it is just too... well, crappy. The image quality is nowhere near what it should be for a successful OCR pass. As for client expectations: hell yes--tell them not to use a fax machine in the digital age.

RE: [PHP] Read/decode barcodes from an image
Certainly if the quality of the input can be improved by using some digital transfer that is not a fax, go for it... I assumed the OP already knew that, but perhaps not. The fax is going to cost you a LOT of accuracy, probably too much to make OCR even viable, really, but it depends on the faxes involved. If it's always the same two fax machines, and they are both set at image quality and have good feeders, you *might* get halfway decent quality out of them.

Mike,
Certain characters are considered "special" in RegEx. The $ means "end
of the line," so it must be escaped to avoid confusing its meaning. I
was not sure it had to be escaped within a character set [], but that
may very well be the case. Try this:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\((\s*\$?[-_a-z0-9]+\s*,?)*\s*\)/i';
The word "function" is followed by 1 or more spaces (or tabs). The
function name [-_a-z0-9] can be a combination of alpha-numeric
characters, underscore, and dash. Then, there is optional whitespace
between the name of the function and its parameters. The opening
parenthesis "(" for parameters has been escaped (as has the closing
parenthesis). Then, in a repeatable capture group, the parameters can be
grabbed: Indefinite whitespace, an optional $ (because maybe you're not
using a variable, eh?), one or more alpha-numeric, underscore, or dash
characters, followed by indefinite whitespace and an optional comma (if
there are more arguments). After any number of instances of the capture
group, the regex continues by looking for indefinite whitespace followed
by the closing parenthesis for the function text. The "i" switch at the
end simply means that this regex pattern will be treated as
case-insensitive ('APPLE' == 'apple').
If you're not worried about actually splitting up the function
parameters into capture groups, then you can just use a look-ahead to
ensure that you grab everything up till the LAST parenthesis on the
line.
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?\)(?=.*\)[^)]*)/i';
That one probably needs to be tweaked a bit in order to actually grab
the last parenthesis (instead of just checking for its existence). If
you're willing to trust the text you'll be searching through, you can
probably avoid that "last parenthesis" rule altogether, and make a lazy
regex:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?/i';
Once you get to the opening parenthesis for the function parameters,
that last regex assumes that the rest of the line will also include that
function declaration, and just grabs everything left. If you are using a
regex setup to where the dot marker can also consume newline or carriage
return characters, just throw a "$" at the end of the regex (before the
flags part "/i") in order to tell it just to grab characters until it
reaches the end of the line:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?$/i';
These are all untested, but hopefully I've given you a nudge in the
right direction. If you are still getting strange behavior out of your
PCRE engine, then perhaps you have a different version installed than
what I'm used to--all of the above should work (perhaps with some very
minor changes) in PHP.

[PHP] CLI in background on windows
Hi, I am looking for some method, how to run php cli script on background in windows. It should be started by windows task manager. Do you have any idea? Thans, Fanda -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The Task Manager is more of a process listing, like "ps" or "top" in Linux. In the Windows command-line interface (cmd.exe), type "start /?" to give you an idea of what your options are. As far as "in the background" goes, Vista's task scheduler can hide the programs it executes from being viewed by the user. Pre-vista, I think you can just minimize it (unless it's run on a different account on the same machine other than the one logged in)... start /min /b php myscript.php The "/b" option MIGHT prevent pre-Vista machines from showing the user that a task is being executed. If it doesn't, then at least "/min" will keep the window minimized rather than slapping them in the face with it.

[PHP] Variable Scope problem passing function parameters
I'm new to PHP 5 and classes, but I've done a lot of ActionScript.
I'm trying to use PHPMailer inside my own class (a service for AMFPHP).
I'm having problems getting the data that'spassed into my class's send()
method to the instance of the PHPMailer.
Basically, I have this:
class EmailAMF {
public function send ($from, $to, $subject, $body) {
require('class.phpmailer.php');
$phpMail = new PHPMailer();
$phpMail->From = $from;
$phpMail->AddAddress($this->to);
$phpMail->Subject = $subject;
$phpMail->Body = $body;
return $phpMail->Send();
}
}
As far as I can tell, it sends an essentially blank email to nobody (but
returns true.
If I replace any of my function variables with strings, like this:
$phpMail->AddAddress('m...@example.com');
the email actually "gets" that data.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Jim

$this -> to
it has no meaning in the scope of your class.

Re: [PHP] CLI in background on windows
Yes, it should be "task scheduler". :-) My Windows is in czech, sorry. I was trying commands you suggested before, but black window always blinks on screen.

[PHP] utf8 php howto?
Hello,
I have a text file encoded in utf-8.
i am using fopen/fgets/echo etc..
how do i display these utf8 characters from the file on the web?
I have tried different combinations of
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1");
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8")
and
utf8_decode/utf8_encode functions
I can't seem to get the characters from the file to display as
non-giberish on the web.
if i set the charset=utf8, and type the unique characters in directly to
my document (hard coded) and save the document as utf8, then the
characters display properly on the web.
examples:
1) save file as utf-8, web produces correct characters
[type special characters here using russian keyboard layout]
2) save file as ASCI, web produces [giberish]
3) save file as utf-8, web produces [giberish]
Thanks for your help,
dK
