[PHP] Thank you everyone, What a wonderful world
Hi List, I would like to appreciate from you all. I hope that you enjoy your holidays. Children (yes! children) are dying in Gaza, and we're safe! We're happy. Happy Christmas!! Thank you for supporting Israel, and for being so quite. The God is with you! How Palestinians defend(!) themselves with stones, and how Zionist are performing a new holocaust using the American weapons in a prison, named Gaza strip. But you now what... this is really good. At least this could bring democracy, and freedom to middle east. PEACE! HUMAN RIGHTS! YEAH! a lot of bullshit !!. We're all responsible for this event. What a shame for mankind in 21th century. Forget this. This is SPAM and/or PROPAGANDA! CHEERS! -behzad
Re: [PHP] Thank you everyone, What a wonderful world

Kill all of those terrorist, including those women and children! Victory is yours. Soldiers! Don't make any mistake, since you have modern weapons, equipped with lasers! Use your modern war machine; Use F16 and 100-ton bombs to kill, Do not let them to throw stones at you. Do not let them to leave the land. Do not let them to have food. Oh My God ! Look at their rockets... Look at those hand-made toys! How miserable these terrorists are! Who are we? Vampires or Blinds? On Sat, Jan 3, 2009 at 9:59 PM, Dotan Cohen wrote: > WTF?

[PHP] DB Question | A hotel reservation scenario
Dear list, e-Greetings! I'm faced with an interesting and challenging problem. Consider a database, designed for a hotel. At any given time, each room has a different status: It's Busy or Reserved, or Free. It's easy to retrieve number of Free rooms at the current time. But how can I count the number of rooms that were busy during the last week ? I would appreciate if you take a brief moment of your time and share your opinion. Thank you in advance, -b
Re: [PHP] Re: DB Question | A hotel reservation scenario
Based on Ashely's reply, I created the following scheme: The table "Rooms" has the following fields. - id (PK) - room_no (varchar) - status (ENUM: Busy, Reserved) the other table, "RoomLogs", has the following fields: - room_id (the id from above table) - status_modified_on (date) - status (enumerated value - 'busy','reserved') The problem is to generate a graph to display status of rooms in different periods of time (daily, weekly, monthly). X Axis = Status (Busy, Reserved) Y Axis = Number of rooms with a certain status (the last status for each room makes sense) On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 8:13 PM, Ralph Deffke wrote: > to answer this is in fact not possible on the base of information u give. > > I dont think there is a general db outlay for hotels. it depends how the > "booking" tables are designed. > > does the application excist or u are doing a new one? > > if it excist, have a look how the availability of a room is calculated and > then go from there. it would be the same calculation, just with backwards > dates. > > hope that helps > > ralph_def...@yahoo.de > > > > "Behzad" wrote in message > news:470fa6660908180745i6bb6a442xd53d2c02fac7b...@mail.gmail.com... > > Dear list, > > e-Greetings! > > > > I'm faced with an interesting and challenging problem. > > > > Consider a database, designed for a hotel. > > At any given time, each room has a different status: It's Busy or > Reserved, > > or Free. > > > > It's easy to retrieve number of Free rooms at the current time. > > But how can I count the number of rooms that were busy during the last > week > > ? > > > > I would appreciate if you take a brief moment of your time and share your > > opinion. > > > > Thank you in advance, > > -b > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > -- Kind regards, -behzad
Re: [PHP] DB Question | A hotel reservation scenario
Good questions, I need to talk to the client to determine the exact requirements and specifications. Thank you every one for helping me to figure out the potential db-scheme and for opening my view with your answers :) On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 10:39 PM, Bob McConnell wrote: > From: Ashley Sheridan > > On Tue, 2009-08-18 at 19:15 +0430, Behzad wrote: > >> > >> I'm faced with an interesting and challenging problem. > >> > >> Consider a database, designed for a hotel. > >> At any given time, each room has a different status: It's Busy or > Reserved, > >> or Free. > >> > >> It's easy to retrieve number of Free rooms at the current time. > >> But how can I count the number of rooms that were busy during the > last week > >> ? > >> > >> I would appreciate if you take a brief moment of your time and share > your > >> opinion. > > > > Keep a table that lists all the rooms along with their current status > > > > Keep another table that has these fields: > > * room_id (the id from above table) > > * status (enumerated value - 'busy','reserved') > > * start_date > > * end_date > > > > Then you perform your query using a join of these two tables, within a > > particular date range.

[PHP] LoginShare | How to authenticate once, and login to different websites
Dear list, i'm trying to integrate two php-driven web applications, which both require the user to authenticate using a username and a password. Consider a situation where the user has logged-in to the 1st application. She clicks over a hyper-link, which directs her to the 2nd application. The challenge is to automatically authenticate the user on the 2nd application as well. i'm wondering how? Is it secure to store the username and password in the $_SESSION, and share the session between the two applications? Please let me know what do you think. Thank you in advance, -behzad
Re: [PHP] Re: LoginShare | How to authenticate once, and login to different websites
Thank you all for your answers. i was looking for a simple and fast answer -> I'm going to store the a unique id in the database, and pass it between applications using the $_SESSION. Shawn and Martin, Thank you very much for your help. Kind regards, -behzad
Re: [PHP] Re: LoginShare | How to authenticate once, and login to different websites
Dear paragasu, Never heard of oAuth before, but I guess that it's complex for my purpose. But I'll take a look at it, I'll use it for the next version. Thank you so much for introducing this great tool!

[PHP] RegEx to check for non-Latin characters
Dear List, For a Form Validation process, I need a function to avoid Latin characters to be provided as the first or last name. Since we expect our users to enter their personal info in Persian. Do you know any regular expression to provide this functionality? 1) Regex to check whether there are Latin and Numerical characters in a string. 2) Regex to check whether the string only consists of certain characters. Thanks you very much in adnvace, Kind regards, -behzad
Re: [PHP] RegEx to check for non-Latin characters
Thanks everyone. I guess I find the answer: *// return true if the $str ONLY consists of Arabic characters and space-character public function isArabicString($str) { return preg_match('/^([\p{Arabic}]|\s)*$/u', $str); } * PHP 5.1.x or higher is required. @see: http://www.regular-expressions.info/unicode.html Cheers, -b
