[PHP] Who's having a good hosting experience these days?
Hello, My hosting service which WAS cool about 2 years ago has grown into a bloated mess of zero logic. My clients are going nuts, I'm sick of having mistakes and problems created by the hosting service be the only reason I have any problems to deal with at all!!! My clients aren't rich big money folks but I need a PHP capable host for about $11ish or less a month. Traffic is minimal, and like I say the only tech support calls I've had to make this past year were when the hosting service tweeked and freaked something thus messing it all up.

[PHP] Q:Anybody using PHP directly on Mac-OSX???
Hello, I love PHP but I haven't gotten deep into it because of the issue of needed to upload it to my hosts server to test it. I'd love to get REALLY good with PHP, advanced shopping cart stuff, DB etc. but I just know the way my mind works and unless its a simple one click to test it on my desktop, well you know. So, anybody out there have PHP installed on their local home desktop Mac OSX box able to test by a quick "preview in browser" from say an app like BBedit? -Marcus -- ||| Marcus Unlimited http://marcusunlimited.com Multimedia Internet Design and Education ||| -- | Limited Time Offer! | Download the Recordings of Chromaticus | FREE! @ http://ampcast.com/chromaticus | Complete song files and Sci-Fi Loops for | programs like Reason, Flash, Premiere | Logic, Cubase, Recycle, Acid, FruityLoops, | and many, many, more!!! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: FIGURED OUTQ:Why is my code returning this? Help?
Before anyone tries to hard to figure this out I looked over my code and fixed this. The answer was that I had more than one form on the same page calling to one php handler page, -Marcus Marcus James Christian wrote: > Hello, > > As mainly a designer w/ HTML and JS php is usually just an end of site > add on to process forms and I LOVE php! > > I've been away from PHP coding for about a month and I can't figure out > what I'm forgetting here is partial of the form, the php handler, and > the final email I get.

Re: [PHP] MAIL to a Bcc: ???
Sebastian,
Thanks and do you know of a place where I can get a printed book of the
actual PHP manual, already printed?
I hate printing out those huge PDF files and I can't stand reading on screen
directions while trying to learn them.
Thanks,
Marcus

[PHP] Mail Bcc to a $variable?
Hello,
Ok I've got a script going to a Bcc but can't seem to get it to work
when it's like this?
\nBCC:$recipients";
include("password.inc");
if($mailusername == $username && $mailpassword == $password);
{
mail($to, $subject, $bodytext, $headers);
};
?>
So how do I get mail to Bcc a variable like $recipients? Recipients
being a huge text file of hundreds of email addy's.
-Marcus

Like this...

Or somewhere else?

[PHP] Easiest Automated mailing list concept?

The part where automatically added names happen to an external file works but if I put line breaks in it drops them from their hidden Bcc list. Which is a no can do for this. Then when I don't put in line breaks from the string somewhere after many names the machine automatically puts a line break in and leaves this very uncool three or four most recent names sitting in the top part of the emails body!?

[PHP] Q: Kill all line brk's and white space on output?
Hello, I've got this cool auto add email mailing list that is simply a .txt file that PHP writes to. So the visitor goes to a form types in their email addy and is automatically added to the .txt file which is then read when the boss wants to send out to the entire list. This thing works perfectly except for one prob. Every time some one adds them self to the list (mainly me testing right now) their addy is added on the next line down yet when I view the code I have NO \r or \n asking to add a line break. So my question is Is there a way to say ..."Write to the file emailaddys.txt and suck out all line breaks, returns, and white space?" i.e. make sure each address butts itself up against the next with just the comma separating them. I know this would work because when I manually go to the .txt file and delete the white space till all the email addy's are back to back this app works great!
