RE: [PHP] PHPLIB and PHPMyAdmin
How can you control 'magic quotes' with .htaccess? I thought this is a php.ini command? I kind of have the same problem. My web host has magic quotes off and I would like to use phpMyAdmin. Is it possible to turn them on without accesing the ini file?

RE: [PHP] PHP_SELF - silly question
You may have to declare PHP_SELF as global.

I have a script (imagine that huh?) that I want to pull some code out of and put in a function that is contained in a seperate file. The function however inlcudes some lines with $PHP_SELF in a link (a href). When I remove the code from the running script and include it in a function file seperate from the script the function works fine as far as generating links etc, but when the link that includes $PHP_SELF is selected, the file of the running script is not passed. So in other words, when I have my function code in my running script, it generates some links that limit a query on a mysql database and pass data to PHP_SELF, the passed URL looks like this (for example): http://69.02.217.123/php4/php.exe/searchitem.php?sql=SELECT+%2A+FROM+items+W HERE+LCASE%28partnumber%29+LIKE+%27x%25%27+ORDER+BY+partnumber+&offset=100&n umpage=3 But, when I move the code to create the links externally into a function, the link I end up with is like this: http://69.02.217.123/?sql=SELECT+%2A+FROM+items+WHERE+LCASE%28partnumber%29+ LIKE+%27x%25%27+ORDER+BY+partnumber+&offset=100&numpage=3 Can someone shed some light on the best way to handle this? -- Larry H. -- 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] -- 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]

RE: [PHP] Developer certifications
OK now I'm pissed. I consider myself to be an above average programmer with extensive skill in PHP (amongst other things). NOW... I am not going to go jumping through hoops just because some ignorant/illiterate HR Recruiter/IS Head thinks that if you're not PHP certified by some company (eg. brainbench) you're not worth consideration. I REFUSE to do it. I WOULD NOT on my life take the MCSE of MCwhatever, however I may take the Cisco or the Oracle test. Things that require and properly compensate specialization I am open to. But things that test how well you can interact with a GUI (Windows) are bullshit. With respect to PHP there are other methods of determining ones competency with a particular language. What should be judged is a persons overall programming competency, or how well they can adapt to a new language, as oppose to specialization in PHP or PERL or . If you specialize in PHP, what are you going to do when there is no more PHP. (Not that we are expecting that). To summarize, judging a proficiency as it relates to a particular language shows the inexperience and ignorance of your future management.

RE: [PHP] Recursive Childs
Many databases can handle hierarchical SQL statements. For examples oracle uses "START WITH / connect by". eg. SELECT level L1, level_id, name FROM company_level START WITH level_id=21 CONNECT BY prior level_id=parent_level_id Very easy. Let the database do all the work. It would not be possible for Yahoo to query the database recursively (ie issue many separate SQL statements for a hierarchy). So look into your database SQL reference. Hierarchical queries are defined in SQL99 but most databases are only SQL92 compliant with some custom SQL99 support. I know DB2 supports hierarchies as well.

The files are no longer avaible form the site but are still avalible via cvs (cvs.php.net) just checkout the files you want from the distributions directory. I wouldnt advise using anything less recent than 4.0.4pl1 though due to security issues in previous versions.

This is the situation: I have a bunch of PDF files on my server directory. I show the user a listing of the PDF files they can view, and allow them to hyperlink click on the PDF they wish to browse. When the user clicks the link, I execute a header() and then my passthru on my PDF file. The code is essentially: header("Content-type: application/pdf"); passthru($pdf_file); Now, my problem is that the title of the HTML window that pops up is of the URL path. I want to set the title to something meaningful (like the name of the PDF file the user is looking at). But, if I try to print a "PDF File" after the header, my PDF document does not show up (it shows the raw encoding of the PDF document). Does anyone have any suggestions to allow me to show a title on a header/passthru page? Is there a better way to do this?

They said, "You can update it online", I said, "Your control panel isn't behind a secure server. I will not update my Credit card information online."
