[PHP] question regarding subclasses, is this possible to do
Hi, i was wondering if the last line of the following code is possible
somehow (the second last works perfect) but say i wanted to automatically
get the id (or anything else for that particular window) would it be
possible? or would i have to include a new function in windows called setID
or something like that?
php code-
windows = new windows();
}
function getSize(){
return "Big House";
}
}
class windows{
var $id;
function windows($id = "all"){
$this->id = $id;
}
function showID(){
echo "ID: " . $this->id;
}
}
$test = new house();
echo $test->getSize() . "\n\n";
$test->windows->showID();
$test->windows("Window3")->showID();
?>
---end php code--
I could always have $test->windows->setID($id) then display the properties
for that current window, but it would be sumpler if i could use
$test->windows($id)->showID() and if no var is there, show all...any ideas
on how to do this?
Thanks heaps
Luke

i forgot to mention, that being a class, you should be able to set any of the variable you want (either on class creation: new honeyPot($value1, $value2, etc); or with the class variables, $spambot = new honeyPot; $spambot->addresses = 50; //amount to create) Luke -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

no, but on windows, you should be able to access most of them (depending on

Some type of unique host Id is needed by the PHP scripts to contruct
database records. For this exercise, we are not using PHP sessions, and the
students do not have usernames and passwords for access to the database.
Access is automatic after each host is logged onto the intranet.

[PHP] Re: Losing Sessions.
Hi
Well, what i can think of (and its happened to me) is session timeouts, how
long does your session last?
Just a note, in newer php versions, session_register is not required, all
you need is session_start, and then use $_SESSION['variablename'] to set the
variable.
session register used to be there to set the variable as a global, so
instead of using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['xebitsession'] you could use
$xebitsession
i noticed something else too, (maybe its how you want it) but in first
section you have if (isset($_SESSION[$xebitsession])), unless $xebitsession
is set somewhere, that code should be
if (isset($_SESSION['xebitsession']))
same with everywhere else, unless $xebitsession is set, anwhere that there
is $_SESSION[$xebitsession] should become $_SESSION['xebitsession']
Maybe you could try it with a cookie instead and see if the same thing
happens?

[PHP] Re: Sort Array by date
an easy way, but might not work in your case is to use sort()
if instead of storing the dates like 12-04-2003, could you prehaps store
them as
2003-04-03
year-month-day
and then you could use
$datearray = sort($datearray, SORT_STRING);
would this work for you?

[PHP] Re: Search logic question
Chris' suggestion sounds allright.
Depending on how you do the search depends on what you will want to do (to a
certain degree)
you might be able to store the search criteria in the url
search.php?start=10&search=php%20general&subsearch1=search&subsearch2=logic
$results = "query results from {$_GET['search']}";
//then you could loop thru it
$i=1;
$subsearch == true;
while($subsearch == true){
if(isset($_GET['subsearch' . $i])){
$results = "subquery results";
}else{
$subsearch = false;
}
$i++;
}
just a concept, but it can work :)

[PHP] Re: PHP Includes and Echoes in Head Sections and Search Engines
hi
Very simple problems, good to see ur getting the hang of it :)
the first is, you have defined your variables after you include the page, so
that the echo is outputting a blank variable...
so instead of:
make it
';
include ("../../../../includes/javascript.php");
include ("../../../../includes/stylesheets.php");
\?>
i just changed the opening and closing tags a little (you didnt need so
many) but the main change is, now the variables come before the included
file, so that the include file can access those variables too.

hmm, well that sure is strange. cuz here http://au3.php.net/ftp_put someone got it working...ahh i see, they used FTP_ASCII, so its the default anyways...hmmm might be a bug, because FTP_BINARY is just a constant, so it has a numerical value, (eg 2003 (i dont think thats it)) but in theory ftp_put($conn_ftp,$picuploadname ,$piclocalname , FTP_BINARY); should be the same as ftp_put($conn_ftp,$picuploadname ,$piclocalname , 2003); so i duno :/ -- Luke "Jay Blanchard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [snip] That shouldnt matter, because FTP_BINARY is a constant, and therfore has a numeric, or string value.

[PHP] Re: PHP Includes and Echoes in Head Sections and Search Engines
? Holy cow, this gets simpler all the time. Pretty soon, there'll be
? nothing left on my page but PHP includes and echo functions!
?
? Does this cut down on a website's file size? In other words, are the php
? includes effectively inactive when no one's viewing your main pages,
? leaving them empty of the included pages?
Well in a way yes, it wont cut down the transfer bandwitdth, but because you
are reusing the same files over again, this will take up less disk space on
your
server. But the same amount of data is transferred when a user views the
page (as you can see from view->source)
? But suppose there's a certain page where I don't want the style sheet in
? the middle - the one I named MIDDLE. Is there a way to mark it in the
? include page, then instruct the main page to either not import it or
? replace it with nothing ("")?
youd have to use a variable, so in the main page do the following
if($pagetoshow == 'withoutmiddle'){
$includemiddle = FALSE;
}else{
$includemiddle = TRUE; //(or false depending)
}
and in the include do this:
if($includemiddle == TRUE){
echo '';
}
just a side point, you may be better of doing your html code with echos, as
you have a few variables in there.. eg
';
if($includemiddle == TRUE){
echo '';
}
echo '';
?>
and if you are echoing a variable, quotes around it arent needed
you can just use
echo $variable;
instead of
echo "$variable";

[PHP] Re: Can this head section, which loads many style sheets, be improved or simplified?
Well you could use elseif statements so you only have to set one true
instead of X amount false
eg
if($includenorth){
//Do North Include
}elseif($includesw){
//Do Southwest Here
}
the only thing is with that way, only one well get done, not all, but it
depends on what you want, that may be suitable.

[PHP] Re: Specifying file paths in Windows
try removing the dot and /
so
if (is_file("filedir/test.txt")) echo "Found it!";
else echo "Not found";
that should work on windows and unix platforms, i dont think windows likes
the single dot, but you can use relative referencing, by just using the
directory name.

Re: [PHP] authentication problems!
Yeah, i think i mentioned the same thing(or was going to :/ )
you should be able to use the local filesystem, and reffer to it relatively!
and then you can stream it and you wont need any authentication, and noone
will be able to directly link to the file

Re: [PHP] Odd Code Error.
ok, i read the section, but even so
if $a == $b
and $a == $c
then $b should be equal to $c
but php is saying otherwise?
this sounds confusing i want to try n get my head round it
a string equals a integer of zero, and a string equals true, but the reason
the bool doesnt equal the int is because when the string and int are
compared, the string is zero (because it has no numerical value)?
did that make sense? am i right?

[PHP] Re: Specifying file paths in Windows
Well, the thing is, it sounds like PDFlib isnt programmed well? or perhaps
there is a limitation in something they used...
because, sure, windows uses C:\windows\system\blah\folder\ but you can do
any of the following (this is the output from the command prompt: windoze
cmd.exe
C:\>cd windows/system32
C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd\
C:\>c:/windows/system32/ftp.exe
ftp> quit
C:\>cd /windows/system32
C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd ../system/
C:\WINDOWS\system>
so there shouldnt be a problem using relative referencing and forward
slashes? as far as i can see :/

Re: [PHP] 2 x DB connections at once
It depends, how are you creating the connections, and where are you keeping
the connection ID
and when you query, or select database, or anything to do with the
databases, do you make sure you specify that connection id?
//Notice the TRUE, that creates a new conenction, and doesnt use the
existing connection (hence returning a different id)
$sqlconnection1 = mysql_connect('test.com', 'username', 'password');
$sqlconnection2 = mysql_connect('test.com', 'username', 'password', TRUE);
then when you select databases and query youll have to specify that
connection!
//choose DB 1 on connection 1
mysql_select_db('mydata1', $sqlconnection1);
//choose db2 on connetion 2
mysql_select_db('mydata1', $sqlconnection2);
//and querying
//this will select the table named table from the mydata1 database
mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE name='me'", $sqlconnection1);
//this will select the table named table from the mydata2 database
mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE name='me'", $sqlconnection2);
hope thats what you were after

OK, now I have done some work and it gets even stranger.
Two Objects
Validator
Importer
Both objects have private variables called $this->Connection
However, when I change the DB for one objects connection pointer, the other
objects connection pointer ALSO changes DB.
Is it not possible to have two completely separate DB connections active at
the same time?

Subject: [PHP] 2 x DB connections at once
I thought this was possible, but it doesn't seem to be working:
I have a class, that has a private variable called $this->Connection, which
is a Database Connection pointer to a MySQL database. During the lifetime of
the Class, it uses the connection multiple times without a problem.
The class also uses a function from an include file that has its OWN
Database Connection pointer. And it seems that for some reason, as soon as
that external function is called, the Private Database Pointer within my
Class suddenly points to the Database name that the external functions
Database Pointer was using.
I ALWAYS specify which connection pointer I want to use when selecting the
DB and doing a mysql_query, so I have no earthly idea how the external
Connection pointer is affecting my Private Connection Pointer.
I hope I explained that well enough; it's real difficult to put into words.
Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?

[PHP] Re: page order
Hey, Mita Kuuluu?
I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but basically you want to edit and move
around the values?
the 'no' field is basically an order?
to do the edit page you can use a combination of HTML forms and the mysql
results...
and to move them up or down, you can have a link that has the id in the url
so itd be like ?id=2&action=up
if(!isset($_GET['action'])){
//display item list
}elseif($_GET['action'] == 'up'){
//move item up
$result = mysql_query("SELECT no FROM admin WHERE id={$_GET['id']}") or
die('Invalid Query: ' . mysql_error());
$previousnum = mysql_fetch_assoc[$result];
$newnum = $previousnum - 1;
$result = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM admin WHERE no={$previousnum}") or
die('Invalid Query: ' . mysql_error());
$moveid = mysql_fetch_assoc[$result];
$result = mysql_query("UPDATE admin SET no={$previousnum} WHERE
id={$moveid}") or die('Invalid Query: ' . mysql_error());
$result = mysql_query("UPDATE admin SET no={$newnum} WHERE
id={$_GET['id']}") or die('Invalid Query: ' . mysql_error());
}elseif($_GET['action'] == 'down'){
//move item down
}elseif($_GET['action'] == 'edit'){
//edit item
if(!isset($_GET['step'] || $_GET['step'] == 1){
//display HTML form with data pulled from the database based on
$_GET['id'], submit it to itself, and add &step=2
}elsif($_GET['step'] == 2 || $_GET['step'] == 'save'){
//save data back to database based on $_POST information from
form and $_GET['id']
}
}
and you should be able to adapt that to the down one for yourself (just
change the -, to a +)
there might be a better way (and more secure) to do it, but i jus made that
then, so give it a go anyways...
hey hey,

[PHP] problem with my class
Hi guys,
I've been learning about object oriented programming and I wrote this test
class but it doesn't seem to be working, it throws no errors but doesn't
insert anything to the database either. I have made sure that the data being
sent when the class is instantiated is valid.
I'm probably missing something simple here...
I have already
class RecipeCreator
{
private $rtitle;
private $problem;
private $solution;
function __construct ($t, $p, $s)
{
if(!isset($t, $p, $s))
{
throw new Exception ('Missing parameters for
__construct, need $title $problem and $solution');
}
$this->rtitle = mysql_real_escape_string($t);
$this->problem = mysql_real_escape_string($p);
$this->solution = mysql_real_escape_string($s);
}
public function saveRecipe()
{
$query = "INSERT INTO recipe (title, problem, solution)
VALUES ('".$this->rtitle."',
'".$this->problem."',
'".$this->solution."')";
mysql_query($query);
}
}
Many thanks,
Luke Slater

Yes I am doing that. The query seems to be going through all right too I
tested the syntax in mysql query browser and tried mysql_error() but there
was nothing.
I think there's an issue with the __construct because when I wrote a method
in there to return one of the properties of the function, it turned up
blank! As I said before the variables I'm passing in are definitely valid...

[PHP] class problem :(
Right I've read the manual on this and all that so hopefully you find people
can help.
I have an abstract class with three children. The abstract is ForumObject
and the three children are Thread, Category and Post and each have their own
table so I wrote the following:
abstract class ForumObject
{
static private $table;
static function getObjectIds ($field, $value)
{
$query = "SELECT id FROM {self::$table} WHERE $field = '$value'";
$object_ids = mysql_fetch_array();
return $object_ids;
}
}
class Category extends ForumObject
{
static private $table = "categories";
}
That's just got the important bits for the sake of your eyes but basically
the problem I'm having is calling
Category::getObjectIds ($whatever, $whatever2);
Seems to think that it's referring to ForumObject::$table rather than
Category::$table?
I looked into it and there seems to be something you can do with
get_called_class() but unfortunately I'm stuck with 5.2.9 at the moment and
that is new to 5.3.
Any ideas? Perhaps there is a different way I could implement the classes -
I would rather not have getObjectIds repeated three times!
Thanks in advance,

[PHP] Socket error
Hey guys, getting an odd error here... The code involved: $master_socket = socket_create_listen($this->port); socket_bind($master_socket, '127.0.0.1', $this->port); socket_listen($master_socket); socket_set_option($master_socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1); socket_set_nonblock($master_socket); And I'm getting: 'PHP Warning: socket_bind(): unable to bind address [22]: Invalid argument in /home/luke/talkserver/new/classes/server.php online 30' $this->port is valid, I've checked both this and that socket_create_listen seems to be executing correctly. I'm a bit lost on the error too it seems to be what the php.net manual says are the parameters? I'm trying to create a listening socket server that binds to a port on the local machine.

Sorry about that. In relation to the question, the answer was indeed to change to socket_create, the following code works fine: $master_socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); socket_bind($master_socket, '127.0.0.1', $this->port); socket_listen($master_socket); socket_set_option($master_socket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1); socket_set_nonblock($master_socket); Thanks for the help =) -- Luke Slater :O)
[PHP] Scope woe
Hello again guys,
I was wondering the best way to tackle the following problem:
I've got a class, containing a property which is another object. So from
outside I should be able to do
$firstobject->propertycontainingobject->methodinsidethatobject();
The $firstobject variable is in the global namespace (having been made with
$firstobject = new FirstObject;), and I'm having a problem that I'm sure
many people have when accessing it inside another class, so:
class otherObject
{
static function messwithotherthings ()
{
$firstobject->propertycontainingobject->methodinsidethatobject();
}
}
But $firstobject is blank, which makes sense because in there it is pointing
to the local variable within the method.
To solve this, I could add 'global $firstobject' inside every method, but
this is very redundant and boring. I've tried a couple of things like
adding:
private $firstobject = $GLOBALS['firstobject'];
But apparently that's bad syntax. I was just wondering the best way to get
around this?
Thanks a lot for your help,

Thanks for the replies :)
Surely if I pass it as a parameter to the __construct then I would have to
make an instance of the otherObject, notice that messwithotherthings is
static?
Also, if I'm not using OOP properly, Eddie, how would I use it properly to
prevent this situation?

Sorry to annoy you Tedd,
I guess stage one would be something like
$date = $_GET['datestring'];
$exploded_date = explode(' ', $date);
foreach($exploded_date as $constituent)
{
if(preg_match('/^{1,31}$/', $constituent))
{
$sane_date["day"] = $constituent;
}
}
Then in the foreach loop would also be something that would check for months
and years, setting the constituent to $sane_date["month"] and
$sane_date["year"] respectively.
Something like that?
I would try it out but I'm at work ;)

Re: [PHP] php File upload
I think the sentiment is that you can't fit all of the file in the memory at once Luke Slater On 8 Aug 2008, at 07:59, Per Jessen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Jim Lucas wrote: What Apache starts, it reads the PHP memory limits in to the running Apache process.

Now, Apache actually handles the Upload. Once the file has been received completely, Apache then passes the file and process running to PHP. Also correct. I have never seen a case where Apache has stored the file on the file system. In my past experience it has always held the file in memory, therefor limited to the max physical memory that was install, minus a little for other things. Well, I can easily show you such a case - I can upload a 1Gb file without apache memory usage changing one bit. Even if Apache did upload into memory, why would that make the file limited to the max amount of physical memory?? How about if I upload a 1Gb file to a webserver on a machine that only has 256Mb memory - would you say that's impossible? /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
