[PHP] Re: how to determine if a mysql query returns an empty set?
Is there a way to determine if a mysql query returns an empty set? I am
selecting 10 results at a time with a limit statement and need to know
when i've ran out of rows. I've only got 2 rows in the database, so
when I start with row 10, it returns an empty set. I have the following
code:
//running this query gives "Empty set (0.00 sec)" in mysql console.
$get_requests = "select form_id, full_name, email, phone, division,
location, date_format(time_of_request, '%m-%d-%Y %r') as
time_of_request, contact_time, problem, accepted_by,
date_format(accepted_time, '%m-%d-%Y %r') as accepted_time, resolution,
date_format(resolution_time, '%m-%d-%Y %r') as resolution_time from form
where ((stage = 'Closed') && (email = 'awilliam' )) order by
resolution_time limit 10 , 10"
//checks to see if it returns nothing, then print that you are at the
end of the results
if (!$mysqli_get_requests =
mysqli_query($mysqli,$get_requests))
{
echo "You have reached the end of the results.
Please press the back button.
";
exit;
}
but that doesn't work, because I guess an empty set is not false, 0, or
NULL?
Hello,
Something better than *_num_rows() : try a do...while loop :
$res = mysqli_result($sql);
if ($data = mysqli_fetch_*($res)) { // At least one row was found
do {
//
} while ($data = mysqli_fetch_row);
} else {
// 0 rows
}

Re: [PHP] How can I detect an exception without using try/catch?
Ok, the details of the problem obviously aren't being understood.
Let's assume that I explained it poorly and I'll try again. Take the
following code (It's complete, cut/paste to see what happens.):
running = true;
}
public function stop() {
$this->running = false;
}
public function __destruct() {
if ($this->running) {
throw new exception('I have not stopped running yet!');
}
}
}
function fail_horribly() {
throw new exception('This is the real error that I want a stack trace from');
}
function do_that_thing() {
$running = new running();
fail_horribly();
$running->stop();
}
try {
do_that_thing();
}
catch (exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
?>
While putting this together, I discovered lots of interesting
behaviour. Depending on exactly where I put the try/catch, there are
different things that happen and different errors that occur. It's
kinda interesting.
The thing is, that none of those errors is the result that I _want_
which is to ignore the fact that $running was unset and just report
the error that started everything going wrong.
If I could put my fictional function (get_current_exception()) in the
__destruct() method, I could detect that an exception was already in
progress and avoid throwing another one.

[PHP] Using scandir() in a Novell Netware Volumen or a Windows Shared Folder
Hi,
Im having problems when i try to use the function scandir() in a Novell
Netware Volumen or a Windows Shared Folder
they both are mapped as a windows network drive, so i suppose i could access
them as local drive, but i can't. instead i receive this message:
Warning: scandir(R:\) [function.scandir]: failed to open dir: Invalid argument
in C:\WebServ\wwwroot\htdocs\index.php on line 3
Warning: scandir() [function.scandir]: (errno 22): Invalid argument in
C:\WebServ\wwwroot\htdocs\index.php on line 3
this is the script:
i' am logged to novell as a administrator (testing only)
if i use scandir() in a local drive it works fine for example
scandir("D:\\")
so i guess it's not a security problem
i have appache server 2.0 installed on a WXP SP3 workstation (only for testing)
and a Novell Netware Server v5.0 used as a File Server, PHP 5.0.2
i have read some message posted before on the list, suggesting to go and search
in google before asking help to the list.
I wish i could do that, i live in Cuba and i DON'T have access to the
internet :-(( :-(( :-((
sorry for my english.

Dedel.

I've always > thought the return-path is where an email is bounced to and reply-to etc > are used by mail clients, not the mta's. The way I read it, the return-path field is used to indicate a gateway where the message entered the current email network. So a bounced message has to be returned to that gateway to get back to the network from whence it came. This is useful where traffic passes into an SMTP network from a network with an older routing mechanism, or vice versa. The intent is to return the bounce to the Sender or From address, in that order. But, since the RFC specifically says the field is reserved for use by the MTAs, it is not proper behavior for an email client to add it to the header. Reply-to is a specific instruction to the recipients client software to insert this address as To when a reply is composed. It is ignored by the MTA. If you don't want bounces to go to the From address, use Sender. It was intended for mailing lists and administrative assistants to send mail on behalf of someone else without having to forge their From address. It's also useful when you have a web site running on a commercial server farm outside your domain that has to send mail that acts like it came from inside that domain. Many border filters will block mail when the From line says it came from within their domain. So the From address can be the web server (it doesn't even have to be a valid address) while Sender indicates the address in the domain where any bounces need to be sent.

I expected to get all instances of Johnson or of John but I got only 1 and I saw that there were others, so that didn't seem right.

RE: [PHP] Self-Process php forms or not?
When you have it all in one file, the first thing you do is check to see if this request was submitted from the form. If not, you send the blank form. If it was, you validate all of the data. When a validation fails, you add error messages and resend the form with any fields that passed the validation already filled in. When validation succeeds, process and move on. No muss, no fuss.

Re: [PHP] Self-Process php forms or not?
Well, if you keen on separating business from presentation (which is usually a good practice), you can always do this: So you can call in fact the processing page, the real presentation can be in another PHP file, as well as the processing functions. Of course, instead of PrintForm() you can actually implant the real HTML code. And by the way, if you keep the form and the processing parts in one file, and create the form like this: you can name your file as you want, it will work without rewriting the page.

Having a script that is self executing - when it posts back to itself instead of a separate script - has absolutely nothing to do with the separation of business and presentation. It is possible for a single script to use separate components for the presentation, business and data access layers. -- Tony Marston http://www.tonymarston.net http://www.radicore.org ""MEM"" wrote in message news:002b01c9c4dd$08569bc0$1903d3...@com... > So, on your opinion, we can call that method, on some circumstances, a > good > practice? > > What about the moto: "let's separate business from presentation?" > > > Thanks once again, > Márcio > -Original Message- > From: Sándor Tamás (HostWare Kft.)

I only made the suggestion as a matter of defensive programming, since not everyone developing with PHP knows and/or has control over how PHP and MySQL communicate. For many sites, a developer writing an app has no idea whether the web server and database are on the same physical machine, let alone how the two services communicate. What's more, in some of these environments, what is true today could change tomorrow. (The issue of query logs is another good point, too.) All I'm saying is if you hash/encrypt the value in PHP rather than passing it off to MySQL in open text, you don't have to worry about whether the connection is (or becomes) sniffable. For that matter if you're going to bring up performance, I know many DBAs who would argue this as performance issue as well.

[PHP] Re: Self-Process php forms or not?
What you are describing is known as a "self executing" script where the script posts back to itself. In other words it has two passes - the first uses the GET method to build the screen for the user, which may or may not be empty, while the second uses the POST method to send the user's changes back to the server for validation and updating. By dealing with both the GET and POST in a single script it means that you don't have to redirect to a different script if you have to redisplay the data because of invalid use input. -- Tony Marston http://www.tonymarston.net http://www.radicore.org ""MEM"" wrote in message news:002301c9c4d9$03515920$09f40b...@com...

[PHP] help with explode()
I have a form where users submit search terms and it explodes the terms
into an array based upon spaces. But, how can I have explode() keep
words in quotation marks together? For example, if someone enters on
the form:
John Jill "Judy Smith"
and I run $termsarray = explode(" ", $_POST["terms"]);
it explodes into:
Array ( [0] => John [1] => Jill [2] => "Judy [3] => Smith" )
but I'd like it to explode into:
Array ( [0] => John [1] => Jill [2] => "Judy Smith" )

Yes, preg_match_all returns all matches and the subpattern matches
(the "stuff" inside the brakes)
You can ommit stop it by using (?:) instead of ()..
So: preg_match_all('/(?:[a-z]+|"[a-z ]+")/i', $_POST["terms"], $termsarray)

(Like mail.host.com) This is what I have so far: mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers); I was to http://ca2.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php and saw this syntax: mail ( string $to , string $subject , string $message [, string $additional_headers [, string $additional_parameters ]] ) Ronhttp://

Re: [PHP] SMTP mail server
I am on a shared web site hosting company. They are asking me to edit my PHP script to specify the SMTP using $aditional_parameters on the URL below. If this can't be achieved then I need to confirm this. Ron On Fri, 2009-04-24 at 20:04 -0500, Adam Williams wrote: > > Ron Piggott wrote: > > How do I specify an actual SMTP server?

Re: [PHP] SMTP mail server
I am needing to put this into one specific PHP script. What would the ini_set look like? Ron On Sat, 2009-04-25 at 06:43 +0530, kranthi wrote: > if u cant change the configuration settings of php.ini > use http://pear.php.net/package/Mail > alternatively u can also hav ini_set on top of every page.
Re: [PHP] SMTP mail server
ini_set("SMTP", "mail.host.com");
ini_set("smtp_port", 25);

You may want to watch this tutorial video that explains why presenting and processing a form with a single script is a better solution. http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/video/1/package/1/section/usage.html Basically if you use the same script, if the form has invalid fields, you can present the form with the previously submitted values. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Find and post PHP jobs http://www.phpclasses.org/jobs/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

No, AFAIK you cannot configure the SMTP server that way, unless your Web hosting company hacked the mail function. Otherwise, I think they have no idea how to do it and are wild guessing. The fact is that you do not need to use an SMTP server, especially if your web host is run on Linux or any Unix like system. In Linux the mail function just injects the message in the local mail server queue and from then on the mail server sends the message to the remote recipient domain SMTP server so it reaches the destination mailbox. You may want to watch this slide presentation that has a slide that explains exactly how mail messages are routed.
