What does phpinfo() tell you? Don't forget that there are several places
where this can be set; the php.ini file, the .htaccess file, and within
the PHP code itself. If phpinfo() tells you that both settings are for
errors off, then it's most likely that a line in your PHP code is
turning them back on

[PHP] table mixing PHP, javascript, ajax and CSS

[Alain Roger]

Hi,

i'm currently working on some project which needs in several pages, a table
to display query results...till now nothing special.
however, in order to not create several time the table and features i've
decided to create my own templates including PHP classes, CSS and
javascript.

this "table" class should have filter, colors schemes, multi selection and
header/paging header.
I would like to know what are your suggestions, recommendations or tips to
have something easy to deploy and upgrade ?

i was thinking to have a common (framework) base : a simple html file having
3 divs, each div receiving a particular php file (header, pagin, or the
table itself)
header, paging or table PHP files could be located in some folder being
different for each template... main changes in templates are usually for the
table it self (in terms of columns amount, of presented data record,...)

basically my structure is the following one:
/folder_to_include_by_user_in_his_development_environment
   /templates
  /template1
 pager.php
 table.php
  /template2
 pager.php
 table.php
  header.php
   frame.php
   /class
  table_class.php
  helping_classes.php
  ...
   /js_and_ajax
 function.js

the user will have only to run a js function which will include the
frame.php file into his own webpage with the template given as parameter.

thx for any suggestion.

[PHP] turn shared hosting server to external image storage hosting

[paragasu]

do you have any idea how to do this. i have a small vps about 10GB
space. i live somewhere is south east asia where solutions like Amazon
S3 is incredibly slow. (500ms ping time).

i have a simple php gallery. But dedicated server is quite expensive
($100/month). searching around, i found several local hosting
companies provide a very cheap shared hosting. ($100 / year, 300GB).
local server with 40ms ping time.

i am interested to use that shared hosting just as storage for images
of my gallery and a cheap vps to store the database.

What is the best way for me to accomplish this? Amazon S3 using REST
etc. Is it possible to write a simple storage (REST system) like
amazon s3 in PHP? is there anyone wrote this before. I am interested
in your solutions..

thanks

An appropriate set of classes (data types, field names, even/odd 
designators for zebra styling) plus CSS is everything you need for color 
schemes.


Can you elaborate on what you mean by "multi selection" and "paging header"?


I would like to know what are your suggestions, recommendations or tips to

I'd look into:

http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/datatable/

It includes filtering.

I usually write my own code for generating raw table markup - that could 
be used by as a progressive enhancement by YUI datatable - with a 
minimum of repetition.


http://www.webaim.org/techniques/tables/data.php has information about 
what constitutes good markup for data tables.

The use of JS as an include mechanism is largely pernicious. Couldn't 
they just use include()?

Re: [PHP] retrieve result of a query

[Thiago H. Pojda]

You can return (echo) a JSON or a XML with those results.

That way it doesn't store the file anywhere. :)

(I'd go for JSON + jquery)

Ajax is what you need to look at. JS can certainly accept the data  
being posted back from the server.

If the user doesnt press the submit button PHP has no idea what's
going on there.

That's client-side and you should use JavaScript for that.

In case you have a specific business logic in that field and don't
want the user to know about it, you should use AJAX.

But this sounds simple, a small JS should help you.

The JS can submit the form, if it's okay. Or you can add a action to
form's onsubmit event. (you can "return false" if the validation
fails).

Hope this helps!

[PHP] What does

[tedd]

Hi gang:

I have a small php routine to provide the user with a style choice. 
The working url is here:


http://php1.net/a1/david/

The simple code that allows style switching follows:



As you can see, the code works. However, if I add the following line 
IN THE HTML (i.e., after ?>):




I receive a:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING

What's up with that? Apparently the php interpreter is considering 
"this something else?

Is there a compelling reason to use either REQUEST_URI or SCRIPT_NAME

I know that REQUEST_URI includes the ?variable=value string and that
SCRIPT_NAME does not. This form does not depend upon get variables, so
this should never be an issue, but I ask here anyway to know if there
are other differences that I did not account for.

Thanks, Tedd. That approach seems a bit dangerous for non-standard
browsers such as mobile phones and the like who's developers might not
have though about it. Also, in the event that a user saves the form
locally (likely in this case) I need it to have a place to go!

Thanks!

Tim:

Can not do that using php. Php is server-side and hasn't a clue as to 
what the user is doing until the user clicks the submit.


If you want to check for user input in real-time, then you'll have to 
do that client-side with javascript.


Here's an example:

Correct.  It's shared hosting, so short_open_tags is on for

[PHP] Webhotel structure

[Nordstjernealle 10]

Hi Carlos and "what" people

Thank for trying to help.

As I said Im a newbie or rather total beginner in the web territory
My webhotel is surftown starter (I paid for 5 years long ago before the 
price went up so I do not want to change.

I got a domain attached.

The surftown webserver runs linux has 10GB space and
Linux Webhotel STARTER
PHP Safe Mode On
Sun ASP, PHP4 , PHP5
MySQL 5.0 databaser
phpMyAdmin
PostgreSQL 7.4 databaser
phpPgAdmin
FTP accounts
Webalizer & Modlogan statistik
1click Toolbox installation
Your own CGI-scripts

It also has mail support , but I do not plan to use that, and I am pretty 
sure it has not been configured.


I tryed Surftowns help and wiki offcourse, but did not find any usefull 
info about the overall structure.
Is it possible to see what is running on my web hotel like SQL databases + 
?

Is there somethink like windows taskmanager or linux ps command?


Yes then I properly want to start all over and delete everythink including 
databases and what else could be running?
Problem is a student tryed to set up my web and do not know what he has 
installed and why features he has started.
After clearing everythink I will install the php program coppermine, due 
to safe mode on I can not use the Gallery.
Coppermine is a one click install on surftown, I have tryed but get a 
number of different errors, so I want to start over from a clean web 
instead of finding that the problems relate to the unknown code from the 
student.


I guess I just have to delete all files below my domain name and 
stop/delete any database I can find, but is that all or could there be 
other thinks I have heard off?

Hallo Peter,
i think i understand what you mean (again: i think) but i am not really 
sure to understand what you need.

You need some Support on PHP? and when yes, by what?
When you dont need support for PHP please tell us, what you are looking 
for? Do you need Suport for coppermine? then look here 
http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/languages.htm
You want remove all the Application on your server and you dont know how? 
What is your System, where ist Your Server System?
Do you need some Support from PHP programmer? Please contact me then :-) 
(reply only to me then)

[PHP] Problem with fetching values...

[Michelle Konzack]

Hello,

I have to code a compatibility  layer  under  PHP5  for  PostgreSQl  and
MySQL, which mean, I have to code something like db_query()  which  then
can be used with mysql_query() and pg_query().

But now I have hit an weird error, since in PostgreSQL it is wotking but
in MySQL it get the right number of values but NO the value itself.

I use:

[ '~/.tdphp-vserver/includes/database_mysql.inc' ]--

} elseif (DB_TYPE == 'mysql') {

  function db_connect($host=DB_HOST, $port=DB_PORT, $database=DB_NAME, 
$user=DB_USER, $pass=DB_PASS, $link='db_link') {
global $$link;
$$link=mysql_connect($host . ':' . $port, $user, $pass);
if (!$$link) { db_error($query, '', mysql_error()); }
$tmp=mysql_select_db($database, $$link);
  if (!$tmp) { db_error($query, '', mysql_error()); }
return $$link;
  }

  function db_close($link='db_link') {
global $$link;
return mysql_close($link);
  }

  function db_error($query, $errno, $error) {
die("Error $errno$error$query");
  }

  function db_query($query) {
global $$link;
$result=mysql_query($query) or db_error($query, '', mysql_error($$link));
return $result;
  }

  function db_fetch_array($db_query) {
return mysql_fetch_array($db_query, MYSQL_NUM);
  }

  function db_free_result($db_query) {
return mysql_free_result($db_query);
  }

  function db_fetch_fields($db_query) {
return mysql_fetch_fields($db_query);
  }

  function db_input($string) {
return mysql_real_escape_string($string);
  }


and the code which produce the error is:

[ '~/.tdphp-vserver/includes/10_electronica_admin.inc' ]

Dotan:

Sometimes the simplest is the best, but you might try this:

action=""

At least you can say it's not as simple.  :-)

As for saving a form locally, then you'll have to get the entire url. 
Here's a less than simple solution:


function selfURL()
   {
   $s = empty($_SERVER["HTTPS"]) ? '' : ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") ? "s" : "";
   $protocol = strleft(strtolower($_SERVER["SERVER_PROTOCOL"]), "/").$s;
   $port = ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] == "80") ? "" : 
(":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"]);
   return 
$protocol."://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$port.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

   }

function strleft($s1, $s2)
   {
   return substr($s1, 0, strpos($s1, $s2));
   }

It works.

[PHP] is_readable(http://.... text file) says not, but I can in browser

[John Allsopp]

Hi

I'm sure this is simple for yous all but I'm not sure I know the answer.

   $myFileLast = "http://www.myDomain.com/text.txt";;
   if (is_readable($myFileLast))
   {
   $fh = fopen($myFileLast, 'r');
   $theDataLast = fread($fh, 200);
   fclose($fh);
   echo ("The dataLast: ".$theDataLast."\n");
   } else
   {
   echo ("Last fix file unavailable: $myFileLast\n");
   }

returns Last fix file unavailable even for a file that my browser can 
read. All I want to do is skip over files


This could be a very simple error, I'd appreciate a pointer. Is it 
permissions being different for PHP versus the browser or something? PHP 
is running on a different server.


Cheers

Hello all,

I am using system to convert some files using a binary in linux.  My code 
looks like this:
 $response = system('gpsbabel -p "" -r -t -i gpx -f "test.gpx" -o kml -F 
"test2.kml"', $retval);
 echo "Response: ", $response, "Return Value: ", $retval;

The $retval is returning code 127 - Any ideas on why this?

Sounds like you have short tags turned on in your php.ini. Search the
php.ini file for short tags (possibly short_tags) and make sure it is
set to off. Note however, that if you have an older app, it may require
these types of PHP tags to function. In that case, you could use an echo
(or print) as the last line of PHP and output the line of XML you need
instead of putting it as standard output after the ?> closing tag for
the PHP.

It's standard form behaviour that the attribute defaults to itself if
not set. If it doesn't work with some browsers, then it's more a case of
bad browser than anything.

you might try shell_exec() instead to see if you can get any more mileage.
the return value of shell_exec() is the output of the executed command.

are you basically trying to tell if theres a resource @ the given url?  if
so, id prefer curl myself.

something like

if(($ch = curl_init($url) === false)
  echo ("Last fix file unavailable: $myFileLast\n");
else {
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);*
*  $theDataLast = curl_exec($ch);
  echo ("The dataLast: ".$theDataLast."\n");*
*  curl_close($ch);*
*}

obviously, youll need the curl extension installed for this to work.  i know
the fopen wrappers will allow you to get a read-only handle to an http url,
but im not sure what is_readable() will do w/ that, it may be limited to the
local filesystem.

You overlooked the ampersand in front of $retval. The syntax for
'system' is:

string system  ( string $command  [, int &$return_var  ] )

You have to pass a pointer to the variable, not the variable itself.

Actually, that's not entirely correct while the documentation
shows it as a reference variable, it's not actually required to be a
pointer.  And in either case, the OP had the error code returned
(127), and $retval would have nothing to do with causing the error.

What I would recommend trying is:

&1',$ret);
print_r($ret);
?>

On a side note, I'm curious as to what 'gpsbabel' does.  I've
worked a bit with Keyhole markups and GIS overlays, etc.  Neat stuff.

Simplified:

http://www.myDomain.com/text.txt";;
$theDataLast = file_get_contents($myFileLast);
?>

You can manipulate the code as you see fit.  If it doesn't work,
then check your php.ini file (if you have access) to ensure that you
have this line:

allow_url_fopen = On

good point dan, and just to add further clarification, thats b/c the
function specifies $return_var is passed by reference in the formal
parameter.  when you include the & along w/ an actual parameter (during
function invocation) thats referred to as call-time-pass-by-reference in
php, and its typically frowned upon.  in fact, i think its being removed
from a future version of php.

You may want to try this forms generation and validation class. It can
perform both server side and browser side validations by generating the
necessary Javascript (so you do not have to learn it too much) using a
single definition of the validations you want.

Here is a live demo form:

Amazon released a CDN (Content Delivery Network) that expands S3 to
serve files closer to different world regions.

have you tried photobucket ?  we have an api in php which is freely
available and we use a CDN for caching all around the globe.  in fact, id be
interested to find out how it stacks up over there, in your neck of the
woods.

You don't call system using the ampersand.  The reference is declared in
the function definition.  There's no reason for this to be frowned
upon.   What you are referring to is the old PHP4 style of explicit
pass-by-reference in function usage which is frowned upon.

well i dont think they deprecated it for shits-&-giggles.

http://us.php.net/manual/en/language.references.pass.php

its disabled by default in php.ini; wonder why.. ;)

no im referring to call-time-pass by reference, which works just as well in
php5; as long as you enable it in php.ini (or one of the other various
ways).

and also, for clarification, marking parameters as pass-by-reference works
during method definition in php4 as well, of course.

[PHP] Re: Architecture patterns in PHP

I use the Use Case Mapping as methodology to implement Web applications
in PHP since 1999 .

It does not mean that this is necessarily the best Web development
methodology, nor that you could not use another methodology that you may
prefer.

It is a methodology that I have been using for developing PHP Web
applications with very satisfactory productivity results. I have been
using it since 1999, when Object Oriented Programming support was added
to PHP 3. Over time, it has been refined to address better the real
world needs of sites of growing complexity.

This methodology has been used extensively to develop busy sites like
the PHPClasses repository. Therefore, it has proven to be suitable to
develop enterprise grade Web applications. It does not impose
excessively complex development procedures. So, it is also suitable for
developing small Web applications.

You may want to read this document that explains what are use cases in
the scope of a well structured project and the methodology that
describes how map use cases to PHP code for Web applications.

Hi all,
I can not understand what is the Target of this question like 
"Architecture Patterns in PHP". This is for me like the question, "what 
is your favorite IDE". If i need to know about design Patterns in PHP, 
then i can buy a book about it or i search the Internet for my information.

Carlos

i find this list to me a most excellent supplement to these other resources,
in fact in many ways its often times better.

this topic is no less relevant than most ive seen since ive joined the list,
which most likely is the reason for the several long, well thought
responses.

You have a pretty clear-cut case of a built-in function gone awry, and it will 
probably be fixed pretty fast.



I also rely on this function quite a bit, so it needs to work right when I end 
up at 5.2.8 some day :-)

Well, yeah, ok, I read about the problems imap_rfc822_parse_adrlist()

has, but shouldn't it just work at least as advertized in the manual?

Plus, this is breaking an existing application (Twiggi).
