[PHP] Statistics function
Hello everybody, How does the behind the scenes work by PHP exactly go? Does the PHP thread remain active so long as the information is sent to the visitor? Or will PHP parse the code and send it to Apache which will send the data to the user itself? The reason that I'm asking this is I'm writing a statistics add-on for one of my sites and was wondering whether the code below would give the time in which PHP parses the code or in which the data gets streamed to the user. $time_one = microtime(void); fpassthru($file); $time_two = microtime(void); // + here will be the code to calculate the difference //betweeen $time_one and $time_two Would I get information about my server (parsing time) or would I get some information about the requesters internet connection (how fast will my files get to the user). Both would be pretty important! PS What are the advanced statistics programs out there? I wouldn't mind seeing a sample report (any commercial or non-commercial). Thanks in advance in advance!

[PHP] Creating thumbnails
Hello everybody, I just finished reading a message from the server root and I have been told that the server I have to work with by our current project doesn't support GD and they can't install it neither. We will, however, need to create thumbnails from larger images (JPEG). Are there any other solutions that don't require installing? Some CGI scripts or something similar perhaps? Or does anybody have any other ideas? Perhaps letting another server to do the thumbnailing? There will be only a max of 20 images per day which have to be converted to a 100*200px image. Our main scripting language will be PHP and the database will be some form of SQL. Thanks in advance!

[PHP] Templating solutions?
Hi there!
During the last two weeks or so, I've been bugged by a question deep inside me.
It's about various templating solutions used with dynamic web applications.
Oftentimes simply embedding the code into the HTML template does the trick.
Othertimes the
include("header.inc");and
include("footer.inc"); works its magic.
There are, however, also moments when such approaches aren't enough and
something else is required.
What does one do when the templates of most pages within one site differ in look
and feel? One possibility would be to specify a template, load it into a
variable and replace certain marked spots (a la "") with the
dynamically created code/text using eregi_replace() or something similar.
What are the templating solutions available? Pros and cons?
How do you solve your templating?
Yours,
Lauri

[PHP] multiple replaces...
Hello there,
I have about 30 markers in the text which need to be replaced with the value of a
variable or an array.
Common sense comes up with
eregi_replace("!one!","blah",eregi_replace("!heh!",'foobar',eregi_replace("blah","ho-ho-ho",text)));
The list above could go on and on... I'm sure there are better ways to replace many
markers or spans of text with something else. A loop? Something even more easier and
better?
Thanks,
Lauri

RE: [PHP] multiple replaces...
Hi Nick, Yes, I thought about that. But, what should I do when the markers are absolutely NOT in any sequence. I also thought about something like $replace[1][1] = "!one!"; //marker $replace[1][2] = "hehee"; //replace with $replace[1][1] = "test";//marker $replace[1][2] = "foobar"; //replace with $replace[1][1] = "repl";//marker $replace[1][2] = "humpty-dumpty"; //replace with $replace[1][1] = "blah";//marker $replace[1][2] = "boo"; //replace with Now, when I would do a loop thingie that goes through all those, then it would be a pretty nice and compact solution... What about speed issues regarding this solution?

Whoops, forgot to change the first number in every one of those. The first numbers in the brackets should increase after every two lines...

[PHP] Two SQL tables: asking data in chronological order??
Hi there,
I have a somewhat urgent issue so I'll get right to the point.
There are two tables and for simplicitys sake I stripped about 2/3 of
the tables structure.
I need to order the data from two SQL tables by date. Basically a
chronological list from the two tables. Now, ordinarily I would do two
queries and put disbursements into one list and activities into another
one, just above it. But in this case they need to be mixed so that it
would be a TRUE chronological list.
One way would be to do two queries and load all of the dates from the
two tables into a PHP array (and also define whether it's a disbursement
or activity) and then sort it in ascending order. Then I would have a
chronological list with information about ties of that table. Now I
could ask for the data by the name of the table and the date when I loop
through that PHP array and display it.
That, however, is a bit "around the edge". Do I have any simple
alternatives?
CREATE TABLE activities (
id int(11) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL auto_increment,
matterid int(11),
costtype enum('unit','hour'),
cost float(10,2),
actcount float(10,2),
fillin date,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
CREATE TABLE disbursements (
id int(11) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL auto_increment,
matterid int(11),
disdesc varchar(30),
discost float(10,2),
fillin date,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
Thanks in advance.
Yours,
Lauri

[PHP] Calendar - loop 365 times?
Hello there,
I have a task to modify a quite problematic calendar that wasn't created
by me -- currently only weeks and months are shown (for that, all days
of the week/month are looped through). For every day, 7 queries are done
-- one for each table (there are different tables for weekly, monthly,
annually etc recurring events). When there is an event for that day in a
particular table, then the DetailsID will be returned and the details
table will be queried about closer information regarding the event
(time, name, desc etc).
I don't really think that looping though the entire year would be such a
wise idea (that would be 365 * 7 queries sent to mySQL database). Can
you think of an alternative?
The queries are as shown below.
/// nr. 1
SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Daily
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND
( ('$queryDate' = StartDate AND StopDate = '-00-00') OR
(StopDate != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN StartDate AND
StopDate) )
/// nr. 2
SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Daily
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND
( ('$queryDate' = StartDate AND StopDate = '-00-00') OR
(StopDate != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN StartDate AND
StopDate) )
/// nr. 3
SELECT CalendarDetailsID, DaysOfWeek
FROM phpCalendar_Weekly
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND
( ('$queryDate' >= DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )
/// nr. 4
SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Monthly
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND DayOfMonth = '$q' AND
( ('$queryDate' >= DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )
/// nr. 5
SELECT CalendarDetailsID
FROM phpCalendar_Yearly
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND DayOfMonth = '$q' AND
Month = '$Month' AND
( ('$queryDate' >= DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )
/// nr. 6
SELECT CalendarDetailsID, WeekDays
FROM phpCalendar_PeriodicalMonthly
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND WeekNumber =
'$numOfTodays' AND
( ('$queryDate' >= DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )
/// nr. 7
SELECT CalendarDetailsID, WeekDays
FROM phpCalendar_PeriodicalYearly
WHERE ".$LocQuery." AND Active = '1' AND WeekNumber =
'$numOfTodays' AND Month = '$Month' AND
( ('$queryDate' >= DisplayStart AND DisplayStop = '-00-00')
OR
(DisplayStop != '-00-00' AND '$queryDate' BETWEEN
DisplayStart AND DisplayStop) )
Are there any wiser ways to solve this instead of making 2555 queries
per time the calendar will be requested by a visitor???
TIA
Yours,
Lauri

[PHP] CMS -- central module handling
Hello there, I'm seriously researching some aspects of writing a content management system that would be 'relatively' easy to extend. My biggest problem is the ground level -- how should the central system (that registers modules) work? Ideally, it should be possible to easily extended the system -- running the install.php file (or something similar) will tell (insert new database rows or will add new rows to the configuration file) the central module that a new module was just added and also gives instructions, how to use it, with which other modules it integrates and where the new files are. The basic idea is that modifications to existing files (modules) shouldn't be made (except the central module, which handles all others). Each module should be totally *independent*, but should still integrate with the rest of the modules (when marked as possible in the database). What I mean by 'integrate' is the following: there are two modules, for example, "image gallery" and "articles". Both of them should appear in "What's new" part (when the appropriate checkbox will be checked). Also, it would be nice when one could choose the option "Publish to articles" when inserting a new image gallery (a client event for example -- story in pictures). Yes, that's a simplified example. So, the problem is that there might only be the "article" module at first. Later, the "articles" and "What's new" module will be added and all three of them should now work together. I hope you catch my drift. I have quite a few ideas, but I'm sure that our team is just re-inventing the wheel. What are your experiences? Are there any good books on the subject of creating an extendable content management system (preferably from the coders point of view, but not language-specific).

[PHP] Uploading files in Russian? (urgent)
Hello there, I'm having quite a few problems at the moment. The story is as follows. The designer created 14 HTML files. That includes two language versions (so basically there are only 7 different files... the rest are same files in a different language). One language is English, the second one is Russian. I have to embed some PHP code so all the submitted data would go into the database. I have never dealt Russian webpages before. My problem is that the designer uploaded the files and the texts were already in Russian before. Now, I did my modifications and uploaded the file. The forms worked like charm, but the text looked completely different from what there was before (I don't speak Russian myself, but one could easily see that it wasn't the original text any more). Then I did another test. I downloaded a file, where the text was in Russian, from the server and uploaded the *exactly* same file again. I stood there astonished -- the text changed again. This time, I made no modifications, whatsoever. Does anybody have any ideas? Do I need to install Russian language packs on my computer? Do I need to pass a header in PHP, which would define the charset to use? Anything else? Which encoding to use (currently: )? Please let me know of your thoughts.

[PHP] PDF print page creation...
Hello, A client requested a script to create a page to print out the list of clients that are subscribed to a chosen service. This list will be printed and then faxed to an outer source because that's how the second company that oursources the service requests it. The present script creates a HTML page with an image, text and a few tables. The problem with the HTML page is that the browser prints the web address of the script to the lower left corner of the sheet (and also things like "Page 1 from 1"). The PDF is meant to eliminate it all. How complex would it be to code this script to generate the PDF file. How much time would it take to make a PDF creator based on existing script that gets the data out of the database? Remember, the PDF would have to contain tables and a logo as well (image). The text has to be positioned and aligned as requested by the client. So my questions: 1. How hard would it be to create such a script? 2. How much time would it take? (any common pitfalls that could make coding time longer?) 3. What are the best classes/wrappers out there to handle the job? 4. Or would it be better to get a HTML to PDF converter (do such things exist and do they do a good job?) Thanks in advance!

[PHP] Writing "xxx" OR "yyy" with a regular expressions`?
Hello there,
I need to write all of the href="" contents into an array. Presently I use the
following code, which works like charm:
<.CODE>preg_match('!HREF=[\"\' ]{0,}([^\"\'>]*)[\"\'>]!i', $Content,
$reg_array)<./CODE>
That, however, doesn't support Frames so I would need to make the script match
"HREF" or "SRC". I tried the following code, but it doesn't want to support
frames and ceases to support usual HREF's as well.
<.CODE>preg_match('!(HREF|SRC)=[\"\' ]{0,}([^\"\'>]*)[\"\'>]!i', $Content,
$reg_array)<./CODE>
In other words I replace <.CODE>HREF<./CODE> with <.CODE>(HREF|SRC)<./CODE>.
Any ideas how to make the script support both?
Yours,
Lauri
