[PHP] "x" as a multiplier
Code: $newwidth . "x" . $newheight What I want to get out is a string, like 89x115. All I am getting though, is one number, even though if I do this $newwidth .

I've really only used them once, but they were handy for that situation.
I had a column in a mysql table that was a set column of user

$$privs[$i] = 1;

Just a couple of thoughts here: 1. Now() outputs the date, so ASP does have that. 2. I hate the concept of saying that one of these products is "superior" to the other.

I'm okay with somebody choosing ASP (or PHP) as long as they are basing it on the facts and there particular needs; what I don't like are advocates (read a**holes) turning this into a heated debate devoid of any facts or basis in reality.

Re: [PHP] Php is serversided????
Two ways this is possible: 1. The user has selected an item and hit the submit button, thereby sending everything to the server and it is working there. 2.

I've seen a neat trick in ASP (*boo* *hiss*) where you could take the image, and binary write it out to the web page as the src. Could that be done here?

[PHP] foreach loop
When I go through a foreach loop, are the values of the individual items in
the array changed?
For instance:
$variables = array($author_firstname, $author_lastname, $author_dob,
$author_dod, $author_bio);
foreach($variables as $value) {
$value = strip_tags($value);
$value =
AddSlashes($value);
}
will the values be changed outside of the loop?

[PHP] arrays in forms.
Hi, I have a multi-select listbox set up like this:
Author (you are able to select more than one.Click
here to add a new author):
" .
$row["AUTHOR_FNAME"] . " " . $row["AUTHOR_LNAME"] . "";
echo $option;
}
?>
I then have a bit of code that parses through and checks which authors they
selected, if any.
if isset($author) {
if is_array($author) {
foreach($authors as $key=>$value) {
$query = "INSERT INTO BYLINE(TITLE_ID, AUTHOR_ID)
VALUES(" . $titleid . "," . $value . ");";
mysql_auery($query) or die(echo mysql_error());
}
} else {
$query = "INSERT INTO BYLINE(TITLE_ID, AUTHOR_ID) VALUES("
. $titleid . "," . $author . ");";
mysql_auery($query) or die(echo mysql_error());
}
}
What I'd like to know is, is this correct, incorrect, redundant, etc?

Re: [PHP] help with php mysql and images...
A couple of things: 1. ASP is not dumb. It was just written by Microsoft. Seriously, though I'd learn both, it would make you much more marketable. 2. First off, create the database. Then ask yourself what are the steps that you have to go through. What your probably looking at right now is selecting the information off of the database and reporting it. I'd _definitely_ think about sitting down with the MySQL manual and the PHP manual, both of which are availible free. Also, look for a good MySQL/PHP book (my favorite is "MySQL/PHP Database Applications", by Jay Greenspan and Brad Bulger). You have some work ahead of you, but not a lot.

Re: [PHP] most powerful php editor
Dear god Arnot, would you like to stand back for a moment and consider how retarded those statements are, or would you like for me to do it for you? Whether you use a powerful IDE or not, you still have to use the same compiler underneath. In PHP, that "compiler" is the web server. Unless you buy an IDE that contains a mini-server for you to test the files, yoru comparison between IDEs and word processors is ludicrous at best. > > On Mon, 2007-01-22 at 01:22 +0200, Arno Kuhl wrote: >> For me the analogy goes something like this: if you type the occasional >> letter or note then Wordpad is perfectly adequate, but if your livelihood > is >> churning out professional well-formatted heavy-weight documents then it > pays >> you to invest in a top-class word processor and supporting tools.

I propose these guidelines 1. Syntax highlighting 2. Web server integration 3. Link checking 4. Browser check in the top three (Mozilla-IE-Opera) Now maybe you disagree, maybe you agree. I'd love to just use vi and type away, but quite frankly I'm not that smart.

Re: [PHP] strlen ?
Jim Giner wrote: Trying to manage line breaks in some output I'm generating and using strlen to measure the lengths of the strings I'm printing. Discovered something strange (to me!) in that strlen is returning +1 more than it should. The strings are from a query of my database - simple name fields. But everyone of them is coming back with a length that is one more than I see. Ex. Mike Hall comes back as 10, not 9 F.B. comes back as 5, not 4. I've looked at my data and counted the chars - there is no extra space at the beginning or end in my table. Anyone have an explanation?

Certainly not intentionally. The data is captured from a d/e screen I wrote and it simply grabs the post value and inserts a new record with that value along with some other values. And I don't see anything concatenating a LF to my string. Is this a browser being used for input? Never assume what a browser will do. It is good practice to validate and condition data before inserting into a database. Consider trimming the data before doing the INSERT. I do validate my data by quoting it but I never expected to have to do a trim to remove a LF.

The number of kids staying with a host family can range from 2 to 10. When deciding which kids should stay together at a host family, the idea is for the system to put together kids who have stayed with each other the least on past weekends. So, if a host family can keep 5 kids, then the group of 5 kids who have stayed together the least will be chosen. I can't think of an easy, quick way to accomplish this. I've tried various approaches that have resulted in a lot of coding and being very slow. My idea was to give each group of kids a score and the lowest score is the group that is selected. However, this approach wound of iterating through several arrays several times which was really slow. Does anyone have any ideas on this puzzle? Thanks!

[PHP] mysql connection question
Hi,
For a long time, on all of my mysql pages, I've done something like this
$conn = mysql_connect($server,$username,$password) or die("Could not
connect")
mysql_select_db($db);
I've finally put that into its own script file, moved it to my include
files, and simply included it whereever I needed a connection. My question
is, could this get me into trouble if multiple people access the database at
the same time?
