[PHP] backtracing of includes
Hy, I would like to know if there is a way to get information on the include hierarchy of files in php, especially to find out where which file is included and trace back the line from some file until the first called php file. My special case here and now is that I get an error that some function is already declared and cannot be declared again because of this. I know i must have included the file with that function somewhere already, but as i have lots of nested includes I have trouble right now to find the place where ist already happens. I know I can prevent those things in future by using things as require_once and so on, and i can search through all the code, making yself a map on paper to see which file includes what, but what i really want to know is, if i can ask some function to tell me where the function which makes the error stated above and from where the file is included, and from where this file again is include, going as far back until i have my first-called php file. I hope you can understand what i mean, henning -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That's what I wrote - I know I can use things like that, but I am
curious if there are other ways to find out which file is included by
what and which function is defined in which file - i didn't find answers
about that in the manual.
Meanwhile I found out what the real problem was, namely that a function
was declared inside a function, and the parent function was called
twice, resulting in an error. I think it's generally not recommended to
declare functions inside functions as I see no obvious reason now when
this should be useful, only that it can make things complicated as i saw
right now.(btw: this code does not come from myself, i am just making
additions to it)
So, I am still curious if and how one can trace function definitions and
includes in a convenient way.

What do you really want to do? Can't you go and use php sessions to save data generated in multiple pageviews of the web application, and when you finished all data collection from the user, at the last page you go and make your DB transaction to save all the data. If you worry that some data could be changed in the meantime you can even add a timestamp column in your database and check if it's still the same before doing something like, e.g. updating a database row on the last page. So i don't see why a transaction _must_ live over multiple pages and not only start on the last one when input is finished. Anyway, the last sentence is double wrong - you can make _real_ GUI application with php-gtk, see gtk.php.net, and then, i can think of web applications that _could_ do something like that, even if I don't know one that does it - sure you could create a server side, web based software that would let db connections and even transactions alive even after a request and sending out the answer is done(which is the way php, CGI Programs, and i suppose nearly all other Web based software works), save the state of db connections as session data and use the same database connection again with the next request, but i think that brings some problems. E.g. I could fire thousands of programs that stay alive on the server just by sending some http requests - that wouldn't be very nice for folks runnning the webservers. Writing more clearly what the purpose of all that is migth bring me another view of this all... greets, henning -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

with date as you use it up there you only generate numerical values in a
format you specify, and then you substract those numericals from each
other, echoing the rest of 8876
> But in date thinking it should be 7!
I think if you want to get the number of days you have to
1) substract the mktime values you used in the date statement to get
the difference in seconds
2) count how many days you have with this amount of seconds by dividing
the seconds through 86400
date is a function to give you representations of a date and time at any
given moment as expressed in unix time in a lot of different,
configurable formats. after you generated a date representation with
date, the program doesn't know anything at all about the date/time
meanings of that string or number.

I would do it another way.
say you have all the possible choices in an array that come out of a
database, and ypou want, if the user already selected one, this one to
be selected, right?
Then i would set the selected atribute only if the value out of the
database is the same as the one submitted by the form:
like this (omitting the surrounding html):
$query= "select distinct * from sometable";
$result=mysql_query($query);
// the select field is named selectfield,
echo "";
echo "";
// the variable $selectfield is, if set the value submitted by the form
$selectfield = $_POST["selectfield"];
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo "" . $row[1] . "\n";
}
echo ""
echo "\n";
echo "";
i think this is a more straightforward solution for your problem...

this question is too general - you should describe your idea of what you
want to do and where your problem is a bit more.
In general is is you who would be responsible to write the code that
checks if a user is authenticated and should have access to something,
and you have to include that piece of code at the beginning of each page
you want to limit access for.
>If I am using MySQL to

this either a mysql related question - as mysql deals with the problem
that a user has to be authenticated within mysql_connect or
mysql_pconnect to access some information - or it is a matter of your
application design - if you want only special users to do something or
to get some views of the data you queried from mysql you can go and
create a user table with users and poasswords, and a permission table
where users are designated to specific tasks, then, before you show some
data in your script, you ask the user for a password, look him up in
your users table, and only let him view the things he is allowed to.
but, again, this is a very general answer on a general question, which
might be the reason why nobody answered until now, to get some real
useful answers or solutions to your problem you have to be more specific.
maybe you want to go through some basic tutorials first before doing
such comlicated things and learn the basics of php and mysql before
playing around with big applications, permissions for users, etc...

This won't work with PHP, only with JavaScript Code which may be
dynamically outputted by php, which means, you could open windows with a
piece of javaScript, but you could save the size each individual user
wants in a database and output the size part from there.
the Javascript Code that would open a new window would be something like:
window.open("datei.htm","Fenster1","width=310,height=400,left=0,top=0");

do you want to include the code in that file or read the content?
include is used to include code for execution,
if you wanna read the content of the file you have to use the fopen and
