Re: [PHP] Evaluate PHP var in stored sql statement?
Don't quite understand why this works, but it does:
/* Escape quotes in sql_query so our header_id gets evaluated */
eval("\$myrow[2] = \"$myrow[2]\";");
What's the deal with the leading backslash in ' eval("\$myrow[2] '?
Does eval() tell php to evaluate the string as php code; i.e. text without
quotes?
Thanks for the help...

Thanks for your help Maxim.
I've got quite a bit to learn. PHP is far more challenging than Cold

Re: [PHP] Switch statement || How to output html without using echo() or print()
That does the trick, although I'm not exactly sure why.
Shouldn't the html between the and
statements be executed regardless of whether or not case 1 matches the
switch variable?
In Cold Fusion anything outside of cf code here is
ignored by the CF language processor; thus the html here
would display the html for each case.
In any case thanks for workaround -- I would have echoed out all the html
otherwise..

Re: [PHP] Form Variables not getting passed || Apache, MySql, Win 2k Setup
Sure.
In the code below, class_type is passed in the query_string (e.g.
index.php?section_id=12&page_type=class_submit&class_type=apartments)
Also, below sql values are sent via a post.
Code Snippet ***
switch($_REQUEST['class_type']) {
case 'apartments';
dbConnect("INSERT into c_apart_data (submit_date, apart_type_id, location,
bedrooms, rent, heat, lease, deposit, pets, phone, email, blurb)
Values('$submit_date', '$apart_type_id', '$location', '$bedrooms', '$rent',
'$heat', '$lease', '$deposit', '$pets', '$phone', '$email', '$blurb')");
break;
more code....

What is going on here? Is there something in php.ini that needs to be

Re: [PHP] Single vs. Multiple DBs || Which way to go?
Hey John. Thanks for the candid reply -- basket weaving ;--) Re: scoring, yes, you're right, queries are sport dependent; i.e. if you're in the basketball section, basketball queries are run... At this point in my development experience, creating an all sport scoring table is stretching it a bit. Based on a hockey report I created a few months ago, I understand how to create functional, albeit crude, single sport interfaces. Given the limited time frame I'm working with, using the single sport model is preferred -- because I've yet to learn the alternatives! In any case, the multi-db model is out of the picture for now. I'll just have to alias the table names and do the best I can to organize the table structure in a sensible manner. If you have any brainstorms about how to work with a multi-sport interface in a single db, let me know. I'm not looking forward to sifting through a 100 tables..

Re: [PHP] Output yyyymmdd formatted date || 20030131 to FridayJanuary 31, 2003
Hey Michael. The dates are stored in a MySql db. I checked out the MySql DATE_FORMAT function -- pretty cool. However, pardon my ignorance here, how can I do date comparisons? For example, if I want to retrieve records from the db where the date is between say, 2003-02-01 and 2003-02-07, will MySql be able to compare the strings? I stored my dates as integer fields to do such a comparison, but it looks like I need to graduate to MySql date time functions.. --Noah - Original Message - From: "Michael Geier" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF High" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 08, 2003 1:31 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] Output mmdd formatted date || 20030131 to FridayJanuary 31, 2003 > the real question here is are you "storing" your dates in a file or database. > > If in a database (say MySQL), you can use the native DATE_FORMAT function of > MySQL to pull the date out in the proper format. > > Otherwise, have a look at http://www.php.net/date > > Quoting CF High <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > Sorry for the frequent simple posts... > > > > I've been storing my dates in mmdd format (apparently this is a bad > > idea). > > > > In any case, I need to display this date format as [day name month name day > > #, year] e.g. Friday January 31, 2003. > > > > Any ideas? > > > > Thanks for any leads, > > > > --Noah > > > > -- > > > > > > > > > > -- > > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > > > > === > Michael Geier > CDM Sports, Inc.

Re: [PHP] Output yyyymmdd formatted date || 20030131 to FridayJanuary 31, 2003
Right. I've switched the date column from type INT to type DATE in our MySql db. The problem I've had with retrieving records in a certain date range with: SELECT * FROM table WHERE yourdate BETWEEN 20030201 AND 20030207 is getting the latter part of the expression; i.e. in this case 20030207 to be seven days "older" than the first part. This is where I need to use MySql's DATE_ADD, and other date manipulation functions.. Lots to learn; little time to do it. Thanks for feedback, John. --Noah - Original Message - From: "John W.

Re: [PHP] Why does this happen?
H... So in the receiving page I'll need to string together date_year[i], date_month[i] and date_day[i] in order to get the full date for each scheduled game. Which is what CF apparently "glues together" for the developer on the fly. I'll try out both this method and the array method suggested by OP (I need practice working with arrays in PHP anyway).

Re: [PHP] Sitewide Header & Footer Includes || Trouble with Relative Paths..........
Hey John. Do you ever sleep? You've got a zillion posts in this news group.. To answer your question, it's not that I'm afraid of absolute paths, it's that I don't properly understand how to implement them. I understand why the path references are not working when I move beyond the root level directory, but getting the file reference to work beyond the root is the tricky part for me. For example, with $_CONF['path'] = '/home/me/www/program'; set in my global_vars.inc how will I reference my image files? As $path.image_file_name? Could you provide an image file reference code snippet? Let me know. Thanks, --Noah - Original Message - From: "John W.

Re: [PHP] Sitewide Header & Footer Includes || Trouble with Relative Paths..........
Don't have access to php.ini -- we're in a shared hosting environment... I can make it work with $my_include_path = $DOCUMENT_ROOT . "includes/file.inc"; Then I just prepend include files with $my_include_path. A little more work, but better than chucking all my files in the root directory as I've been doing.. The .htaccess idea is another option, but it looks like apache.org doesn't view setting the include path in .htaccess as particularly efficient (something about apache crawling from top to bottom through the directory tree to find the default include directory) -- I don't know, the $DOCUMENT_ROOT method does the trick for now Feel free to chime in anyone who has a better solution, --Noah - Original Message - From: "Robert Cummings" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF High" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2003 1:22 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] Sitewide Header & Footer Includes || Trouble with Relative Paths.. > I don't know if it helps... but you should take a look at the ini_set() > function.

Re: [PHP] Performance and Function Calls
Thanks for the informative response, Don.
While a few microseconds saved isn't much, the example I gave was not the
"real_world" situation we're actually dealing with.
We're looping through a roster list of players (e.g. a soccer team) with a
minimum of twenty players on a team. When filling out the roster, each
player field has a set of drop downs ranging from state and country of
origin to height and weight and jersey #. By setting the drop downs (which
are generated by functions) to variables before looping through the number
of players on a team, I think we'll save a fair amount of time, not to
mention having to make changes in one place; not throughout the
page
Alright enough blathering.
Thanks again for your help,

Re: [PHP] strip_tags() Quandry....
Hey John; Hey Carl.
I've heard this debate before; i.e. regular expressions vs. PHP string
formatting functions.
The problem I'm dealing with will require, I believe, a combination of
preg_replace(), str_replace(), strstr(), and str_pos().
To my limited knowledge, there is no way to remove white space with PHP
string functions; when I use strip_tags on a block of html text, whitespace
results; thus the need for preg_replace().
The rest can most likely be taken care of with PHP string functions,
although I'm running into a few headaches with user errors; i.e. when a
coach types up his/her team roster and mistakenly adds extra spaces between
fields (e.g. player height = 6' 2" instead of 6' 2"), or roster fields do
not match up with our roster table fields (e.g. one team roster has a field
for player's favorite professional athlete) -- in these cases it may be that
I'll need to use regular expressions to crawl through roster string data
looking for word boundaries and the like.
I'm new to regular expressions to say the least -- just took the dive in
yesterday; much to learn...
If either of you feel like elaborating on the pros and cons of regular
expressions vs. PHP string functions, let me know.

While I agree that regexp are powerful and useful, the examples you gave are
better suited to using str_replace(), trim(), or nl2br() calls rather than a
regular expression.
Also, about the "warning" for inserting data into a database... try not to
scare people to much. If you have
column = '$value'
or
column = "$value"
in your query, as long as you've run addslashes on $value to escape single
quotes in the first case and double quotes in the second, there's no
vulnerabilities.
If you have
column = $column
then you BETTER make sure that $column is a number and only a number. When
you put unquoted (unquoted within the actual SQL, not PHP) values into your
SQL, that's when you open yourself up to vulnerabilities if you're not
validating that the value is only a number.

str_replace('|','',$html_string);
etc...

Re: [PHP] strip_tags() Quandry....
Exactly, Carl. The HTML team data I'm dealing with comes in myriad formats -- nothing is uniform as each school presents their team data differently, not to mention potential inconsistencies (e.g. users mistakenly entering multiple spaces between fields and the like) within each format. For the most part I intend to rely on regular expressions for this job, although I'm a little wary -- regexp syntax is tres bizarre ;--) Thanks for the clues; ultraedit.com has a great regexp tutorial Enjoy the spring/summer, --Noah - Original Message - From: "Carl Furst" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Noah" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 30, 2003 7:44 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] strip_tags() Quandry As you can guess, I'm more a fan of the regular expressions myself being primarily a PERL head. However, PHP string functions are useful and convenient (like trim() for example), and they don't require you to know the in's and out's of regexps which can look like gobbledygook, be very confusing, and sometimes very difficult to use if you don't really know how they work. If you can get them to work, they are very powerful. However getting them to work can require some serious tweaking. I think the main thing when deciding which to use is how much control you want over what is done to your string. Using a PHP function can lead to precarious results sometimes if you don't know exactly what they do (nl2br(), for example, you have to be sure that ALL of your 's are to occur right before a "\n", this isn't always the case). They also don't afford as much flexibility in some cases as regular expressions do (str_replace for replacing multiple spaces, for example). If it's something simple that you know a PHP function can take of, use it. If not, use regexps. They may take a bit more tweaking, but in the long run are much more flexible and a lot more powerful.

[PHP] Array of COM objects doesn't work in PHP but does in ASP?
Hey guys, OK I favor PHP so far above ASP however it doesnt seem like PHP can handle an array of COM Objects. Here's the scenario: Within the 'Deal' object contains an array of 'Bonds'. I want to access each bond by doing: $comDeal->Bonds->Item[$i]; ( btw Item is part of the com object to access each) However i get this error: Warning: PropGet() failed: Invalid number of parameters In ASP I can do: comDeal.Bonds.Item(i) and it works fine Any suggestions?

[PHP] does chdir() change include_path on the fly? HELP
my problem is i have an include file in a parent directory which includes other files. i want these other files to be in the same directory as this parent directory file..(hope your gettin me here...). the prob is the parent directory file looks for its include files in the current directory. example: current path is: www.blah.com/blahdir a file in blahdir called blah1.php includes blah2.php which is located in www.blah.com blah2.php includes blah3.php and blah4.php which are also located in www.blah.com the problem is blah2.php looks for blah3.php and blah4.php in www.blah.com/blahdir will chdir() fix this? or is there another way?

[PHP] cookie paths are really confusing me...please help!
ok here's what i get from php.net: SetCookie()'s behavior is dependant on where it is called within the web document tree. For example, setting a cookie from a php script in a directory makes that cookie available only to other scripts in that directory and its subdirectories. However, setting a cookie of the same name from a script in the directory's parent directory will override all cookies of that name in the parent directory's subdirectories. scenario: im browsing a file in lets call directory 'test'. this file is including a file in the parent directory. this included file is setting a cookie. the problem is when i goto directory 'test2' and use this same included file in the parent directory, it cant find the cookie. how should be setting this cookie?? - Noah -- 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]

[PHP] how to scale down image using ImageMagick?
I have a bunch of pictures all in ranging filesizes and dimensions. I want to resize the ones that over 175 pixels wide to a 175 pixel wide picture however i want the height to scale down (ie. i dont want a really thin picture, i just want it to be what it would be if it were resized). i have this but i cant figure out how to just scale down the width: c:\progra~1\imagem~1\mogrify.exe -geometry 175x30! picture.jpeg the '!' forces those sizes to be used but obvoiusly i dont want the height to be 30. i want it to be whatever it should be so the picture doesnt look flattened.

Re: [PHP] how to scale down image using ImageMagick?
morgan,
this is starting to work! the 175x175 does resize it to a width of 175
while retaining the aspect ratio.
however when i tried using the less than sign, the windows nt
command prompt is treating it as saving the output to a file:
c:\progra~1\imagem~1\mogrify.exe -geometry 175x175> picture.jpeg
imagemagick replies with : missing image file name. this is because the >
sign is telling windows to save the output to a file.
i tried putting a 1 after the > sign and it made a blank file with filename
of '1'.
how can i get around this? i couldnt figure out how to use -identify, it was
not in the docs
Thanks so much!
- Noah
"Morgan Curley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message
[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
according to the docs use
-geometry 175x175> picture.jpeg
man mogrify:
-geometry x{+-}{+-}{%}{!}{<}{>}
preferred width and height of the image. See X(1) for
details about the geometry specification.
By default, the width and height are maximum values. That
is, the image is expanded or contracted to
fit the width and height value while maintaining the aspect
ratio of the image. Append an exclamation
point to the geometry to force the image size to exactly the
size you specify. For example, if you
specify 640x480! the image width is set to 640 pixels and
height to 480. If only one factor is speci
fied, both the width and height assume the value.
To specify a percentage width or height instead, append
%. The image size is multiplied by the width
and height percentages to obtain the final image
dimensions. To increase the size of an image, use a
value greater than 100 (e.g. 125%). To decrease an image's
size, use a percentage less than 100.
Use > to change the dimensions of the image only if its size
exceeds the geometry specification. <
resizes the image only if its dimensions is less than the
geometry specification. For example, if you
specify 640x480> and the image size is 512x512, the image
size does not change. However, if the image
is 1024x1024, it is resized to 640x480.
it looks like mogrify bases its resizing on the first value that is diff
than the one supplied i.e. if your image is 200x50 it will scale it to
175x? but if it is 50x200 it will scale it to ?x175
if it is important you not resize based on height use identify to get the
geometry first.

[PHP] What's more effecient: var on every page or simple function?
Which of the two is more efficient:
# start of file.php
$myvar = 3;
# end file.php
#start of file.php
function myvar() {
return 3;
}
#end file.php
the difference between the two is the first example would set the variable
on every page regardless of whether it was used whereas with the function
obviously it would be used only if it were called.
what's better? (myvar is a constant #)

[PHP] Are constants more efficient than variables that never change?
I may have a variable that changes page to page, but once it loads up, it
never needs to be changed on that page.
So my question is should i just do:
define("myvar", 3);
OR:
$myvar = 3;
does defining it make that much of a difference (if i have several of these
variables that could be defined instead).

[PHP] how to hide dbconnect file if its in published directory?
Hey guys, I come for advice once again. Say i have a file dbconnect.inc which connects to my database. Now if this file is located in a directory accessible for to the web is there anyway that if someone types in that file i can detect it being accessed, instead of included, and redirect them elsewhere?

[PHP] Include fails when "./" is in front of file name
This works:
include("file.inc.php");
This doesn't:
include("./file.inc.php");
I can't figure it out! PHPMyAdmin uses "./" so it's obviously not working.
Here's my environment:
Win2003 Server w/ IIS 6
PHP 5.2.5 setup as ISAPI
All PHP and httpdoc directories have read, write, and execute
permissions given to IIS_WPG, IIS_USER, and NETWORK SERVICE
PHP.ini's include path is: include_path = ".;.\includes;.\pear" (I've
also tried include_path = ".;./includes;./pear")
phpinfo() works fine.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Noah

Re: [PHP] Include fails when "./" is in front of file name
Casey -- nope. the include statement is being issues from the parent page.
both files are in the same directory.
Nitsan -- the problem is apps like phpMyAdmin are littered with
include("./file.inc.php"); i'd have to replace all those to use full
paths. it's not a good idea from a servicability statement anyways.
thanks!

Re: [PHP] Include fails when "./" is in front of file name
Here's the error I get:
*Warning*: include(.\file.inc.php)
[function.include<http://www.emsplannertest.com/function.include>]:
failed to open stream: No such file or directory in *
C:\Inetpub\httpdocs\test.php* on line *3*
*Warning*: include()
[function.include<http://www.emsplannertest.com/function.include>]:
Failed opening '.\file.inc.php' for inclusion
(include_path='.;.\includes;.\pear') in *C:\Inetpub\httpdocs\test.php* on
line *3*
This works fine on my old server which is running PHP 4.3.9.
I honestly feel like I'm overlooking some stupid tiny thing. Are my
permissions correct? Is it possible to debug this and look at the full path
of file.inc.php that PHP is trying to load?
Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Include fails when "./" is in front of file name
I appreciate the help guys. I don't understand what's going on. Here's
what I've tried since posting:
Copied over the PHP binaries and php.ini from my old server to my new one.
No luck.
Copied over the phpMyAdmin from my old server to my new one. No luck.
I've double-checked all permissions. Seriously, what else could there be?!
I repeat:
on old server, include('./file.inc.php') works FINE
on new server, include('./file.inc.php') BREAKS
I'm about to do a replace of "./" with "" but I know that's giving up!

People seem to be missing the point here. These are PUBLIC applications

Next people will be saying that we should re-write PHP if it does not
work
for us.
Oh, did I say that? Must not have been paying attention as I
typed in words to that effect. Sorry.
I'm giving steps to debug and recreate the issue, not to rewrite
anyone else's code. You may have noticed where I mentioned
cross-platform portability.
