Steve, The commas are not concatenation. They are separators for the echo construct.

[PHP] Rewriting string
Hi everyone, I think the subject is right, or somewhere close. Anyway I am trying to perform a little trickery here with links. In the following code you can see where I am trying to replace the link on the current page so it's not a link when on that page. I think I got the general idea of what I need to do as you can see in the code I just don't know how to accomplish it, if it's possible. $categorys = array('home', 'services', 'gallery', 'about_us', 'contact_us', 'testimonials'); foreach($categorys as $category){ $deadlink = $_GET['page']; if ($deadlink == 'page') { $replace = str_replace("_", " ", $category); echo "$deadlink"; } else { $replace = str_replace("_", " ", $category); echo "$replace"; } -- Blessings David M. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

One of the issues at the time was the namespace separator. Do to all the common symbols already being used, it was necessary to re-use one and the context dictates its intent. So whilst "\n" is the newline character, in the namespace string below namespace my\namespaces\are\here; the \n is not a newline. With that, there are no common symbols available. The Hungarian Notation [1] was what I was taught all those years ago when I learnt standard C programming. I've kept that with me through to PHP. Some say it is redundant in PHP. I suppose this is true, but it works for me and doesn't really get in the way. One thing to remember though is that PHP is a loosely typed language. Having a mechanism which would somehow enforce the type based upon a symbol would certainly be a different way of working for PHP. This is mentioned in the [2] and is suggested to be a poor way of working due to the lack of symbols in general. Regards, Richard.

If it's not right, someone point it out. Actually at one point early on they did support a $this, but the way it was bound to an object was half-assed and incomplete so it was removed entirely from 5.3. The intent was to then properly think through how that binding should happen and re-introduce it properly in 5.4. I believe a consensus was reached on how that should happen but I'm not sure what its implementation status is at present.

[PHP] query strings and other delights
I have circumstances which cause me to investigate get strings and such, and wish to start a thread discussing such matters. This relates to a cluster of functions iin php such as public array HttpQueryString::toArray ( void ) and it's bretherin and sisterin and otherin. Being new to php, come here of the snake charming schhuol of python, I find there are rather interesting properties to h ow you get things done in this big tent. SO; presume I want to send a querym, where there is a format: http://www.foo.org/item1/delivery.php?item=name&code=DATA we need to extract the string, bust it up, toss everything into a structure with data keyed with keywords, and march on. (I would have called that structure a dictionary, but that's under a different tent with the snake charmers). I need to come up to speed with GET method and closely relating functions in php, Let's discuss this, and are there any good links to offer on the subject to pages of much interest and clue? Clue glue is in generous supply, but the feathers themselves are pretty scarce, snakes not having any.

I prefer method A which is nearly identical to Java's inner classes where $this would remain tied to whatever it held when the closure was created and gain the object's scope. I do like the idea of being able to explicitly bind the closure to a new object as well. That's all well and good come PHP 5.4 or 6.0, but for now you are limited to holding a reference to $this without gaining its scope, i.e. you can only access public members. Also, you must assign $this to a new variable because you cannot pass $this in the use() clause. $that = $this; $closure = function(...) use ($that) { ... $that->property ... $that->method() ... } If you need access to a protected or private variable inside the closure, you can pass a reference to it inside use(). Once again you need to first assign the reference to a new variable and then pass that in to the closure. Important: you must use the & operator in the use() clause as well as when creating the reference. class ClosureFactory { private $count = 0; public function create() { $ref = &$this->count; return function() use (&$ref) { return ++$ref; }; } } $factory = new ClosureFactory(); $closure = $factory->create(); for ($i = 0; $i < 5; $i++) { echo $closure(); } Yields 12345 David

[PHP] A bad design decision or pure genius?
Hey Everyone, I have a question about php & javascript... Yes I know this forum is for php BUT I needed an opinion on where to look for stuff... I have a application that I'm working on that uses google maps to display interactive maps (using javascript) on the website. I now have the need to display multiple maps on the same page and from what I can tell I have to create new instances and variables for all of them... What I'm wondering is since I know very little javascript would it be bad to create a PHP function to write the java code for the proper number of maps I need to display? The map info is being pulled from a database where events are being added and could contain 2 or 200 maps... Or should I learn javascript and figure out how to create a loop in there so that I can just loop it in the java and not repeat code? Thanks for any assistance you can give!

Or should I learn javascript and figure out how to create a loop in there so that I can just loop it in the java and not repeat code? Thanks for any assistance you can give! Jason Pruim pru...@gmail.com Not sure why you would need to show more than a single map at any given time. Therefore why not use PHP to show a list of possible maps and when the user clicks on one, use AJAX to populate a single map on demand? Hey Daevid, That is a great idea... The only issue is i don't know ajax yet :) But it's on my list of things to do this year! What I ended up doing is just putting a static image in which is generated automatically by google on the fly using the GPS coordinates that I supply, it places a marker on the image, and then it links into a full map where you can pan, zoom, get directions etc. etc. So just needed to think out side the box a little bit! And... For the archives... YES that would have been a bad design decision. It was a crutch to get me through until I can learn more javascript and start mastering that.

Also http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.external.php http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php Spend a little while perusing the documentation at php.net - it is very good. And php.net/function-name is a handy way of looking up a specific function. Cheers -- David Robley Diagonally parked in a parallel universe.
