RE: [PHP] Search for keyword in txt file
Greetings, Sorry for the delay in responding to your posting, I have been grappling with your suggestion for a while and still things are not working out. I have included all my code below and seek your advice.. As it stands, the resultant HTML page prints out the content of each file, but it puts it all in the right table row, as opposed to splitting it up for each row(file).also, my code, when viewed in vim, is all in blue after inserting the $result string you gave me. By taking out the * at the end of your statement, it reverts back to showing things in the proper colours, but the page is blank with the exception of the table formatting I have tried a lot of different things with your code but am now ready to start kicking the cat out of frustration. === '; echo '' ; echo ''; echo 'Log Files on '.$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_HOST'] .''; echo 'Created'; echo ''; { // Loop over the directory - while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) echo $file . ''; $result= `grep -n Started logs/*` ; //Take out upper directory pointers if ($file != "." and $file != "..") //Start filename insertion-- { echo '' . $file . ''. '' . $result . '' . ''; } } echo ''; echo ''; closedir($handle); } ?> ======== Thanks for taking the time to assist on this one.

A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is impossible.

[PHP] Directory Size
Greetings learned PHP(eople); Is there a way to calculate the size of directory in PHP ?

''; When I do that my browser hangs endlesslymind you, it also hangs when I run du -sc from the command line...

Re: [PHP] chill out
My two cents, I`ve been on the list a month now and I think it`s really cool that this type of thing exists. I`m new to PHP, read all the posts that come through, and 98% of the time don`t have a clue what is being spoken about, so the flaming and other comments provide a welcome relief from my daily stress of working this PHP thing out.

[PHP] Ximian Mail on PHP
Greetings learned PHP(eople), I want to create a PHP page that can pull all the messages from my PHP-list inbox, and display them on the local intranet. There are a few users who use PHP and I want to create a system where they simply log into the intranet, and view the messages with related answers. Rather than having three machines downloading 100`s of postings per day from our mail server, I would like to make one point of access for them. Ximian stores messages locally in ../evolution/Local/Inbox/subfolders/PHP.there is one large file in there with everything. Is this a gigantic task, has anyone done this before, am I re-inventing the wheel, barking up the wrong tree, or what ?

[PHP] Creating Images
Greetings learned PHP(eople), I am using the code below to create buttons based on entries that are inserted into a text field from the preceding page. I got this code from my trusty tome "PHP and MySQL Web Development" by Luke Wellign/Laura Thomson.

Here`s the code : --- 8 && ($height_text > $image_height_wo_margins || $width_text > $image_width_wo_margins) ); if ($height_text > $image_height_wo_margins || $width_text > $image_width_wo_margins) { //No readable font size will fit on button echo 'Text given is too large for button'; } else { //The font size fits //Now where to put it $text_x = $image_width/2.0 - $width_text/2.0; $text_y = $image_height/2.0 - $height_text/2.0; if ($left_text < 0 ) $text_x += abs($left_text); //Factor for left overhang $above_line_text = abs($bbox[7]); //How far above the baseline $text_y += $above_line_text; //Add baseline factor $text_y -= 2; //Adjustment factor for shape of our template $white = ImageColorAllocate($image, 0,0,255); ImageTTFText ($image, $font_size, 0, $text_x, $text_y, $white, $fontname , $button_text); ImagePng($image); } ImageDestroy($image); ?> Thanks in advance for any assistance..

When accountants talk of quarterly profits, the development budget is about to be cut. When senior scientists talk blue sky, the clouds are about to roll in. Truly, this is not the Tao of Programming. When managers make commitments, game programs are ignored. When accountants make long-range plans, harmony and order are about to be restored. When senior scientists address the problems at hand, the problems will soon be solved.
