Suggestions:
1. use a picture for the counter (with the image - handling library)
2. use a javascript script :)

[PHP] Restricted access

2003-08-14 Thread Ciprian Trofin
Hi All,

I want to give access to resources (PDFs and some RTFs) only to registered
users and I also want to deny that kind of access to people that "guess"
the URL. I guess it is all about putting these files outside the web-tree
and somehow putting PHP to work.

Could you enlighten me ? :))

What is readfile90 ? I tried google and nothing.

[PHP] Bug ?

2003-04-04 Thread Ciprian Trofin
I tried something like this:

";
echo $arrayB[0];
?>


The output is:
1
1

I think it should be:
1
5



Systems tested:
Windows 98 / PHP 4.2.2
Windows 2000 SP3 / PHP 4.1.1

Re[2]: [PHP] Bug ?

2003-04-05 Thread Ciprian Trofin
David, thank you very much. I suspected smth. like this, but still, it is
weird: PHP already has the "&" operator (?) for assigning by reference. And
there is more: I noticed that if I use the "sort" function instead of
"array_multisort", it works as expected.

I still think there is a bug involved :(

>>I tried something like this:
>>
>>>$arrayA = array(5,4,3,2,1);
>>$arrayB = $arrayA;
>>array_multisort($arrayA);
>>echo $arrayA[0], "";
>>echo $arrayB[0];
>>?>
>>
>>
>>The output is:
>>1
>>1

>>I think it should be:

>>5

DO> It's not a bug (ie this is expected behaviour in PHP4 for various

DO> What you're running into here is the difference between a deep copy
DO> (make a copy of a piece of memory) and a shallow copy (make two
DO> variables point to the same piece of memory).

DO> The way to think of it is that $arrayA doesn't actually contain your
DO> array values - it contains a reference (a pointer in C-speak) to the
DO> memory location where the array values are stored. The line

DO> $arrayB = $arrayA;

DO> is copying the reference, not the values. You can run up against this
DO> behaviour in quite a few of the post-C++ languages, and it can be
DO> disconcerting if you're used to languages where copies are all deep
DO> unless flagged otherwise.

DO> To add insult to injury, some array operations can implicitly cause a
DO> deep copy to be made. Try this, which adds one extra line:

DO>  function echo_array($a) {
DO> foreach ($a as $v) {
DO> echo ($v);
DO> echo (', ');
DO> }
DO> echo ("");
DO> }
DO> $arrayA = array(5,4,3,2,1);
DO> $arrayB = $arrayA;
DO> $arrayA[] = 6; // this line added
DO> array_multisort($arrayA);
DO> echo_array($arrayA);
DO> echo_array($arrayB);
?>>

[PHP] unset() un-appropriate ?

2003-10-13 Thread Ciprian Trofin

I have a form with 3 checkboxes x1,x2,x3. I want to build an array of
values from the checked boxes; I choosed the following approach:
1. build an array with all values
2. eliminate from array the "" values using unset

CODE:

  $x = array($_POST['x1'],$_POST['x2'],$_POST['x3']);
  do {
   for ($i=0;$i < sizeof($x);$i++) {
$stop = 0;
if (!trim($x[$i])) {
 $stop = 1;
 unset($x[$i]);
 break;
}
   }
  }
  while ($stop>0);


For some reason, the code doesn't work (loops ad infinitum). But replacing

unset($x[$i]);

with

array_splice($indice, $i, 1);

it does.

Help!

[PHP] Playing with globals

2004-05-28 Thread Ciprian Trofin
Hi All,

My system: Windows NT 5.0 build 2195 / Apache/1.3.23 - PHP 4.1.1

Here is a nice snippet:
___

__

the result: 1 (however, I expected to see "2")




If I change to:

___

the result: 2

I understand the concept o local and global variables, but isn't $GLOBALS
supposed to work as an alternative to "global" statement ?
