[PHP] Any netscape users out there?
I develop mostly in a Linux environment anymore, but I have a problem with Netscape and PHP. Well, not so much with PHP but developing it with Netscape. Post data makes Netscape REFUSE to show the underlying source code! It's virtually impossible to design form handling stuff when I can't see the code that's generated when i send post data. Is this a bug and how do you fix it?? regards, dan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Any netscape users out there?
It happens ANYWHERE there is post info for me. Not just on my own PHP development pages. I was just wondering if there was a setting on Netscape to fix this kind of thing. regards, dan On Tue, 03 Sep 2002 10:07:11 -0600 "Ashley M.

Re: [PHP] Any netscape users out there?
Which is strange because I use Netscape 6. Hmm... Perhaps I should upgrade to 7. Also, would the fact that I have Netscape 4.x installed on the same machine as my Netscape 6 cause anything funny to "bleed" over, you think? Perhaps its a shared library thing.. hmmm...

Re: [PHP] Any netscape users out there?
hmmm... must be a bug. Same thing happens on Mozilla as Netscape. Anything with post data greys out the view source button, and I can't get it open. Weird. Time to hit some Linux IRC rooms. dan On Tue, 03 Sep 2002 12:56:02 -0400 Robert Cummings <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dan Ostrowski wrote: > > > > Windows? No, Xwindows... :) I hate M$ stuff.

Re: [PHP] Re: Please help with fresh fish.
I truely recommend "Beginning PHP4" by Wrox Press (www.wrox.com or p2p.wrox.com) if you have no experience in programming or PHP. It is, by far, the best $40 you will ever ever spend. I promise. regards, dan On Tue, 3 Sep 2002 16:46:03 -0700 (PDT) Philip Hallstrom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Read everything at the following sites :-) > > www.php.net > www.zend.com > www.phpbuilder.com > > In particular read the manuals, tips, tricks, examples, and links to other > sites sections. > > Lots of good info there and will point to more sites. > > On Tue, 3 Sep 2002, Anh wrote: > > > Hello everyone, > > > > I would like to study PHP but do not have any experience about PHP or > > programming.

Re: [PHP] Object composition and reference
Well this is just a suggestion since I am in the middle of some PostgreSQL learning and I don't entirely know your situation.. BUT... In times like this, I usually build one MASTER OBJECT to controll all the other little happy citizen objects like mindless sheep. For instance. At one point I needed Form objects ( think of your bus ) to not only have access to other objects called Style objects, which could change ( think of your diesel object ), but also communicate to a database and do all sorts of other fun stuff. Now.. I couldn't have random objects floating around in orbit cause then they couldn't talk to each other so well, and things would get frustrating and one of the objects was likely to punch one of the other objects, knocking out his front properties. I couldn't afford the dental. So what I did was create a "FormMaster" which held methods for accessing individual objects, makeing all the objects do the same thing ( whether they complained or not ), letting the objects access (indirectly) the properties ( think 'global, but not' ) of the master object, and it all stays very neat. of course.. it's more coding... hehe.. but it made my forms behave quite nicely. regards, dan Fri, 6 Sep 2002 17:45:33 -0500 Paul Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Other classes need to have access to these objects without going > through any mode objects.

Re: [PHP] Extracting Numbers from a string.
A simple: eregi_replace("[^0-9]", "", $myvar); should do it. it says.. replace everything that is not a number ( character class "[^0-9]" which means Character class "[" NOT "^" of Decimal "0-9" end character class "]" ) with a NULL string, thereby ripping out all non-numeric components and leaving you with a totally numeric string. ( in theory ). I haven't tested the code so you may have to play with it, but it's pretty simple. dan On Wed, 11 Sep 2002 15:31:22 -0700 "Jason Caldwell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I need to extract the numbers only from a field. > > For example: I have an AMOUNT field and so that I can filter out any user > typo's I would like to extract the numbers only. > > If the user enters $56.55 for example or just $56 then I would like to be > able to remove the "$" and the "." keeping just the 56 or 5655. > > Can I use eregi_replace() to do this -- I've been trying but it doesn't seem > to work right. > > Thanks. > Jason > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Installation
Well first off... the normal sequence of events goes as thus: ./configure ./make ./make install So you are missing a step in there. Secondarily, a "make clean" will only go through and tidy up bits of code that need cleaning AFTER an install. It will not "uninstall and clear space" as it were, so you have probably not really put yourself in a position to start all over. However, I am not sure how easily that can be helped. The biggest thing about installing ANY software from source is making sure you run ./configure --help first. That will show you, in tedious manpage form, what kind of options are available. The big thing, when I installed PHP on my machine, was simply to have apache installed and able to run first before attempting to hook up PHP. Also i had to dig through ./configure --help because I needed to use PostgreSQL so i needed to do something like ./configure --enable-pgsql to get things to run right. I am by no means an expert on this sort of thing, so perhaps another linux user could help? I didn't really use a "configuration script" to install my PHP, but a lot of people do, so perhaps they could share? regards, dan On Wed, 18 Sep 2002 21:14:04 +0200 "Sascha Braun" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Right now I've made a make clean to start it all over. > > Would you like to help me a little? > > Thanks > > Sascha > > - Original Message - > From: "Dan Ostrowski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Sascha Braun" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2002 10:12 PM > Subject: Re: [PHP] Installation > > > > I would really never recommend using an RPM to install any server > components really.

Re: [PHP] DB speed
For SIMPLE SIMPLE selects and inserts, MySQL will probably remain faster. If you are doing a very simple web set up where you are mostly inserting and spitting out single table information, MySQL will be the way to go. Anything else, I would recommend PostgreSQL. It's got FAR superior features and anytime you start very complex queries ( like JOINS and multi-table aggregate functions, etc ) postgres will blow MySQL out of the water. They are both nice, just for different purposes. MySQL = simple, PostgreSQL = anything else. Also, you can run "EXPLAIN " on PostgreSQL to find out exactly what is happening when you do a query and if it's using an index properly or not. regards, dan tuxen wrote: >I think i read something a while ago, about mysql being faster, having >less features, but postgres being a little slower but able to handle >LARGE databases better than mysql.

Re: [PHP] DB speed
Yes persistant connections to pg make a LOT of difference and are recommended.. I have never had overhead problems using them eaither. I am terribly sorry i didn't mention this before. Just make sure you have proper indexes and you should be good to go. regards, dan Uros Gruber wrote: >Hi! > >I make some more test for this. > >When i enable pconect (persistant) the result amazed me. > >PGSQL >Total time: 0.0070 >Execution time: 0.0034 >MySQL >Total time: 0.0072 >Execution time: 0.0027 > >Now PGSQL is as fast as mysql or maybe a lile slower. >So is this normal that non-persistant is so much overhead for >pg.
