[PHP] dynamic forms
I would like to create a from that will pull and display information based on a user's ID from a postgresql database into a textarea on the form, before the submit button is clicked. Are there some tutorials on how to use PHP to dynamically display information on a form as the form is being filled out? Thanks Marc

[PHP] output buffer
I am receiving the "Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent" message even though I am using ob_start() at the top of my script. The php.ini file has output_buffering set to 4096 4096. My server is running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 I am using PHP 5.1.6 Is there some other setting I need to adjust to be able to start a session within the php script? Thanks Marc
RE: [PHP] output buffer
I figured it out but not sure why. On the dev server the script ran with no errors On the live server the script created the header already sent error. In the code I did not execute ob_start() at the top of the script. Once I executed ob_start at the top of the script on the live server it worked with no header already sent error. I cannot see why on the dev server it works with the ob_start() command in inside the script while the live server had an error when it was in the same place in the script. -Original Message- From: Alexey Bovanenko [mailto:a.bovane...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 29, 2009 1:38 PM To: Marc Fromm Subject: Re: [PHP] output buffer Hi.

[PHP] sending emails
We have web forms that send the user an email confirmation after submission, like most forms do. The emails are being delivered to the users' junk folder. The main campus IT staff claim it is because our server is sending the emails. The campus is using Microsoft exchange servers. I am using Red Hat Linux, sendmail, and PHP. Is there a way to give php the exchange server's ip address and have the emails from my php forms be sent from the exchange server? Thanks Marc
[PHP] sending email
When I use the mail function on a linux server, how is the email sent? Does sendmail act alone or does it use SMTP? Thanks Marc
[PHP] date problem
I am comparing to dates.
define('WSOFFBEGIN','09/16/2012');
$jes = 01/03/2012;
if ( date("m/d/Y", strtotime($jes)) < date("m/d/Y", strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN)) )
{
$error = " MUST begin after " . WSOFFBEGIN . "\n";
}
I cannot figure out why the $error is being assigned inside the if statement,
since the statement should be false. 01/03/2012 is not less than 09/16/2012.

RE: [PHP] date problem
Thanks for the reply.
Every example on comparing dates in PHP that I found uses the "strtotime"
function which I am using. What other type can I use?
When is this example below supposed to work?
// your first date coming from a mysql database (date fields)
$dateA = '2008-03-01 13:34';
// your second date coming from a mysql database (date fields)
$dateB = '2007-04-14 15:23';
if(strtotime<http://www.php.net/strtotime>($dateA) >
strtotime<http://www.php.net/strtotime>($dateB)){
// bla bla
}

Marc,
When you take a date and do a strtotime you are converting it to an int which
you can compare to each other much easier. So for your above example you would
be best doing.
define('WSOFFBEGIN','09/16/2012');
$jes = 01/03/2012;
if ( strtotime($jes) < strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN) )
{
$error = " MUST begin after " . WSOFFBEGIN . "\n";

[PHP] array problem
I am reading a csv file into an array. The csv file.
users.csv file contents:
w12345678,a
w23456789,b
w34567890,c
$csvfilename = "users.csv";
$handle = fopen($csvfilename, "r");
if($handle) {
while (($line =
fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$arrUsers[] =
$line;
}
fclose($handle);
}
When I echo out the elements in the elements in the array $arrUsers I get:
Array
Array
Array
foreach ($arrUsers as $user){
echo $user . "";
}
I can't figure out why the word Array is replacing the actual data.
[PHP] checking dates not working
I have this bit of code to see if a date is greater or equal to a set date.
echo(date("m/d/Y",strtotime($jobs_effective_start)));// displays entered date
of 01/03/2012
echo(date("m/d/Y",strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN))); // displays set date of 09/16/2011
if (!(date("m/d/Y",strtotime($jobs_effective_start)) >=
date("m/d/Y",strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN {
$error.="The effective start date must be AFTER
".WSOFFBEGIN."\n"; unset($_POST["jobs_effective_start"]);
}
My error message is displaying. The if statement is executing as true, as if
01/03/2012 is not greater or equal to 09/16/2011.
This is not correct since a date in 2012 should be greater than a date in 2011.
If I use 12/31/2011 as the $job_effective_start date the error message is not
displayed since 12/31/2011 is greater than 09/16/2011 and the if statement
executes as fasle.
Any ideas on why a 2012 date is treated as not greater than a 2011 date?
Thanks
Marc
[PHP] compare dates
I'm puzzled why the if statement executes as true when the first date
(job_closedate) is not less than the second date (now).
The if statement claims that "12/02/2011" is less than "11/30/2011".
if (date("m/d/Y",strtotime($jobs_closedate)) <=
date("m/d/Y",strtotime("now"))){
echo date("m/d/Y",strtotime($jobs_closedate)); // displays -
12/02/2011
echo date("m/d/Y",strtotime("now")); //
displays - 11/30/2011
$error.="The close date must be later than
today's date, " . date("m/d/Y",strtotime("now")) . ".\n";
}
If the first date is "11/16/2011" the if statement also executes as true which
is correct since "11/16/2011" is less than "11/30/2011".

As of PHP 5.2.2 direct comparison of DateTime objects is also possible. So:
$closeDate = new DateTime($jobs_closedate); $now = new DateTime('now');
if($closeDate < $now) {
echo $closeDate->format('m/d/Y'); // output in US date format
echo $now->format('m/d/Y'); // output in US date format
$error .= "The close date must be later than today's date, " .
$now->format('m/d/Y') . "\n";
}
This, IMO is a lot prettier.
