RE: [PHP] Dynamic built web pages administration
Hi, I am also working on a project similar like this. I am creating a News Module which will allow user to create their own pages and post it on web with images chosen. Edit option also will be given to edit the content. I thought of following options. Please note that I am not always sticking to database option. 1. Display templates (may be according to Theme / Layout) to select and display the form to fill up the content (database option can be implemented). For non IT user this will be the simplest form and some sort of customization is also possible by giving options like to choose color, bold, style etc. 2.Give option something similar to Yahoo's Geocities. (please go to http://geocities.yahoo.com - you may need to register). They have developed something like PageBuilder, which is nothing but the applet I believe. Where complete customize page can be created and loaded on the web. Database option will be tedious. 3. OR as you said user can have his own page but then he has to mark it for ' edit content' purpose. If the user is using Dreamweaver then you do not worry, it has a option like ' Create template' option and user can mark the area as 'Editable'. I am also interested in exploring more about it specially option 2, How to do it and whether it will be very complicated ? If you know any good portal which has something like Yahoo!

[PHP] Can I install Lihnux on My Windows 95 machine ?
Hi all, I am having my own personal computer running on windows 95. I have C / D / E / F / G drives with FAT 32 file system with lot of information on it. I can format one drive out of these. Can I install Linux on it ? (i.e. format F:\ and load Linux). Later on I want to load Apache also on it. Is it feasible ? Any information about this on web ? If I format one drive and load Linux whether other drive info will get affected ? manisha -- 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]

I have Pentium II Processor with 64 MB RAM. The drive which I am thinking of converting into Lihnux (F:) has 2.92 GB hard disk space. Current file system is FAT 32. I am thinking of loading Red Hat Linux (may be latest version) and Appache web server by formating that drive.

Is it ? Current my Hard disk space for drive F:\ is 2.92 GB which is just fine for the time being. Do you mean to say that I can increase from 2.9 GB to let us say 4GB by taking it from some other drive may be D:\ ? Can you explain some more ?

Re: [PHP] Can I install Lihnux on My Windows 95 machine ?
Hi all, Again I am here asking the same question as I got confused because of my colleague's comment. I asked my colleague (who is in charge of all network administrator - setups - hardware configurations etc etc etc)). I asked the same question that I am having 4 drives, I want one drive to be converted into Linux. He is saying that if I want to format one drive (F:) out of total 4 drives and install Linux, then I need to do lot of configurations. According to him I need to change BIOS set up of windows so that it will understand 2 boot sections. Currently my window system is recognising only one boot system and some predefined partitions. So if I want to remove one partition and change to Linux, I need to repartition i.e. format again. That means lot of info which is on other drivers will be wiped off.? Is there any remedy for this ? I want my all other drives running properly whenever I am in Windows and I should be able to use Linux commands when I am in Linux system.

[PHP] Problem with the double quotes
I want to display the content of a file containing double quotes. It is giving me error. I experimented with one small string variable. If I add 'Slash' manually, then it is ok. But addslashes function is not working $str1 = addslashes("this is the " " msg "); This gives me error. But $str1 = addslashes("this is the \" \" msg "); This is ok. Manually adding slah to big file quiet impossible. Is there any good solution for this ? How to convert double quotes of file into \" ?

[PHP] Can I delete / update line inside the file ?
Hi, I have one file with following format No. | Name | Email | status 1 | Manisha | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Pending 2 | Neha | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Reject 3 | Aish | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Pending ... I want to update status change against that line. e.g For sr no 1 - I want to change the status from Pending to Accepted. I read about the fseek / fwrite command, but did not came across the delete the line from file. I believe fseek command will write a line starting from pointer but will not overwrite. I am using PHP3 and no database is available (That's the main problem). And many times I need to seek the record (line) , change it and store back. I may be asking some silly questions as I am very very new to PHP. Please bear with me.

Re: [PHP] Can I delete / update line inside the file ?
It is not possible to get the database as client is not ready for that (Can't help it - you know). I am thinking - I will take the data in an array first - change it and flush back to file again. Is there any command to flush back the whole array in to file (each array element will become one line) or do I need to write one by one line ? manisha At 04:59 AM 5/23/02 +0300, you wrote: >Get a database working!

RE: [PHP] File Path - Which way is better ?
Thanks to all who responded. I have concluded that - if directory structure is fixed then we shall use relative path, so that we can copy the code as it is to different server without changing anything. But if we are not sure about the path on server - from where the files are going to be fetched for reading - then better use actual path. We can even keep the path in some include file and just change that path so only one file gets changed.

The client will open / download it on his local machine and will decrypt it for reading. These reports are very sensitive, so I want high end security (I am out of USA). I am thinking of using pki (public key infrastructure). One key will be used to encrypt and another key to decrypt. Server will encrypt it and client will decrypt it. I hope there will be some companies who will be providing ready made software for that. Whether anybody can recommend about it? Also require more detail information about it.

[PHP] want to restart session after time out
Hi, I want to make use of sessions. Very new to this part. I read a lot about it. Now know how to register / start etc. I understand that session terminates after time out (specified in php.ini file e.g 30 mins). But I do not want session to be terminated like this. I want to terminate session only if user closes the browser or clicks 'LogOut' button. After 30 mins I still want to keep all session values as it is. Is there any way out ?

Re: [PHP] want to restart session after time out
thanks all, If session has to time out then in that case what shall i do in following case ? I have a login page, user logins and starts playing (it is a on line game site), for each action (he tells something to do), i need to check whether he is login (i.e session on), if yes, then take all session vars and act accordingly. So do u mean to say that i need to ask for login again if i do not find any session? Is it a normal practice to do ? I always wonder what will happen if the user is half way - running some PHP script at back which calls another script in turn and session ends in between? May be this question will be very basic, but i always get confuse. I know bit of ASP. I remember it is having something like 'On Session End' event hadler. but PHP does not have some thing like this ?

[PHP] Need secure login
Hi, I have a client. He does not want member login by just giving password and login id. He says anybody can give this info to his friend and his friend can access the site. One way is to make use of cookie on his computer. So only from one computer he can access the site. But the thing is that user needs to accept it, and i believe I need to provide some method too in case they delete the cookie. Is there any other solution for this ? Is there any third party software for this ? Regards Manisha -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Just now discussion was going on for new line - the same worked for me (I used string replace) Live Server : Linux / MySQL / PHP There is a field called 'Address' (textarea) - mysql stores \n for carriage return. Now from current disussion thread i know i can remove this with something like (may be something else also) I want to export this to csv file. PHPMyAdmin 2.0 version has one option to convert to csv with delimiter e.g ';' . On my computer (Windows) If I do not use string replace command then '\n' goes as a new row. If i replace it with then it appears in the Excel that is also I do not want. Is there any better way so that '\n' does not come out as new row - but do not want to make use of as this will appear, please suggest, regards manisha When i open it in Excel now that \n becoms a new row which i do not want -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] New line problem - but for Excel
Actually I do not have phpscript for this. I am using readymade function from PHPMyAdmin 2.1.0. They are having option to export to csv file with delimeter ';' (It comes on screen first and then i copy to file manually.) So my csv fil looks like 22;33;address line1 address line2 What excel does is it shows this as 2 different lines. But this all should be in one line. if replace \n with then 22;33;address line1address line2 Do u mean to say i need to write script only to produce proper '.csv' file ?

[PHP] Suddenly some errors are coming
I am having a login page which goes to login process file. I have a include file which connects to database. Till now all was ok suddenly it started showing following --- Warning: main(): stream does not support seeking in /home2/www/members/login-px.php on line 6 This line is nothing but where i included my file for database connection. My client got very upset, i am also not understanding why suddenly this popped out when for last 6 months nothing was wrong. I did not change anything neither my client. I tested db connection separately - it is ok. Then what can be the problem? The environment is Apache / MySQL / Linux / PHP.
