[PHP] Re: PHP_AUTH_USER failing, please help me...
Just a quick guess that register_globals is probably turned off (check
with a phpinfo() to be sure) and therefore $PHP_AUTH_USER and $PHP_AUTH_PW
are not being set.
Or, try $_SERVER[PHP_AUTH_USER], etc...

[PHP] Re: query join 2 databases? or match up arrays?
Hmm... what about querying the informix database for the set of rows you want all at once, putting that into a temporary mysql table with a timestamp and then doing the rest of your work from there. Then the next time it happens check the timestamp on that mysql table and if it's out of date, delete it and go and fetch updated rows from informix, otherwise just use what's in that mysql table. This would act as a sort of replicated table, but only taking into account the records that are actually being hit... maybe?

Replace your last line with this...

Or take a look at the date() command... something like:
$date = date("mdy", time());
would do the same thing (check the man page for sure).

[PHP] Re: multiple entry forms !!
Use several smaller forms and store the results of each into a session variable. Also store a "got-results-for-form-1" (through 7) that gets set for each of the 7 forms. Once all 7 are set you can do the final processing. Set the action of each form to say "save.php" and pass in a "saving_what" field". save.php can then do a switch on the saving_what field to determine what needs checking/storing/etc. Works good for me.

[PHP] Re: php question - query string
You've got it right... look at the man page for parse_str() for more info
on the QUERY_STRING stuff as well as the register_globals configuration
option.
Looking at the script below, there is nothing special about setting
$addjoke to 1. It's just important that it is set to *something* (because
of the isset($addjoke) call. You could set it to whatever you want, but
setting it to 1 is commonly done to indicate "trueness" or "it's on".
You could set it to "yes" if you wanted and the script would work the
same.
Hope this helps.

That seems very doable... look at the date() function, in particular the options to return week number, day of week (0-6), etc. Then it's just some conditionals, and substractions to get back to the right sunday, and then add 14 (or is it 13?) days to get the right saturday. Just remember to do it all the math as the number of seconds since 1970 (look at time() and strtotime()) and you'll be fine. -philip -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: Anyone? more info...
That is the right answer though... along with the various magic_quotes flags in the configuration. You need to look at your existing settings and then create a simple test where you type in something such as: x'x"x\x and then spit it out and save it and generally see at what point slashes are being added. There's a couple of ways to do it... put slashes in automatically, strip them on display don't do it automatically, add them before insertion to a database but which one is easiest for you depends on your sites configuration and what code you've already written, etc... -philip On Mon, 10 Feb 2003, Shawn McKenzie wrote: > Is more info needed, or was everyone just going post replies like: > > "see stripslashes() and htmlentities()" > > *** > > I have a form and I want the user to be able to enter html in a text area. > This will then be stored in an array in a config file.

[PHP] Re: $$ Variable?
Check the manual for sure, but assuming:
$cookie = array("foo" => "bar", "red" => "blue")
once this is done you'll have the following variable defined:
$foo = "bar";
$red = "blue";
I think that's how it works anyway.

[PHP] Re: Date/Time Logic
Store the timestamp of their first login to a database. Also store the number of days (3, 90, 365) that there account is valid. Setup a script to nightly go through the database and for any records where: first_login_timstamp + number_of_days < right_now is true invalidate their login and send notifications. Pretty easy to do with the date/time functions in any database. Of if you can't use a database like that, store it all as numbers (timestamps - number of seconds since 1970...) and just do the math with 86400 seconds equalling one day. good luck!

Use the w option of date() and loop through adding 86400 to $t until you
get to a number between 1 and 5.
w - day of the week, numeric, i.e. "0" (Sunday) to "6" (Saturday)

So, let's say: $a = 5; # 0101 $b = 3; # 0011 Then: $a & $b 0101 & 0011 = 0001 (1) and $a | $b 0101 & 0011 = 0111 (7) does that help?

I don't know which is actually quicker, but I would guess that the first
case would take longer since it PHP has to evaluate "$r != 0" instead of
just doing whatever is in the "else { ... }" clause.
If you want clarity, why not:
if($r == 0) {
...
} else { // $r != 0
}
that gets you the clarity, but keeps PHP from having to evaluate it.

[PHP] Re: PHP Rounding Time
I haven't quite thought this through, but I think something like this:
$remainder = $ts % 60;
if( $remainder < 15 ) {
$ts = $ts - $remainder;
}else if( $remainder > 15 && $remainder < 30 ) {
$ts = $ts + (30 - $remainder);
}else if( $remainder > 30 && $remainder < 45 ) {
$ts = $ts - ($remainder - 30);
}else if( $remainder >= 45 ) {
$ts = $ts + (60 - $remainder);
}
something close to that I think...

[PHP] Re: randomize etc?
split should work fine... Just do something like:
$teamMembersArray = split(" ,;", $textarea);
That will give you an array of the team members. Of course I'm assuming
that their names don't include spaces and that you'll separate them with
either a space, comma, or semi-colon. And you'll want to get rid of any
newlines in $textarea as well.

You're best bet would be to make an animated gif that looks like a progres bar (or twirling icon or whatever).

[PHP] Re: progress bar for uploading files
This wouldn't work for uploading files however since the long part of the process is the act of uploading the file and until that completes your "save.php" (or whatever) isn't called. So in regards to file uploading it has to be done with Javascript. What you do below is great for scripts that just take a long time though. -philip On Fri, 16 Aug 2002, Peter J.

[PHP] Re: Image library
Lots of good ideas. One other thing to consider when designing this is the possibility of multiple web server accessing a single database server. If you use the file system method which assumes that the web/db are on the same server as soon as you want to have multiple web servers you'll run into problems. Of course you also probably don't want to have multiple web servers ask a single db server over and over for the same image. Especially if mysql's blobs are inefficient (I don't know if they are or not). You might consider storing the images in the database, and then setting it up so that it first checks the filesystem and if it isn't there, gets it from the database and caches it to the filesystem so the next access it fast. This would allow you to run multiple web servers since they could both cache them locally. For what it's worth, for our application we use a two level directory heirarchy of [0-9]/[0-9]/primary_id.jpg. Works well for us. -philip On Wed, 21 Aug 2002, Scott Houseman wrote: > Hi there. > > Which way would be the most efficient/fastest to access images from an image > library. > A) Store image files in a hash directory structure AND storing each file's > information in a mysql table > OR > B) Storing image information in mysql table AND storing the image in a BLOB > field in that table. > > The way I see it, considerations to be taken into acount: > - Is it quicker/better to retrieve image from table & then stream out to > browser OR simply direct the browser to the file? > i.e OR SRC="/imagelib/5/f/10"> > - Will a database OR filesystem be more scalable i.e. which wil perform > better when there are 1 images in the libary? > > Thanks in advance > > Regards > > -Scott > > -- > Scott Houseman > Jam Warehouse http://www.jamwarehouse.com/ > Smart Business Innovation > +27 21 4477440 / +27 82 4918021 > > > -- > 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

I think more important than how many files can you fit in one directory before things start to suck is the issue of that directory getting big enough (kilobyte wise) that it fills up the partition. If you put them in separate directories to start out with you can always add a new disk (fileserver, etc.) and put half of the directories on the new disk, mounted in the same place. This way your code doesn't need to change at all. -philip -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

add the following:

You might need to vary the zero in that equation to get it to print at the

first iteration of the below loop.

[PHP] Re: syntax question - eregi()
If memory serves, $match will contain an array whose 0th element is the
entire string and whose 1st element contains whatever is matched in the
first (), 2nd element matches the second () and so on.
Check the manpage for more...
and when testing things like this out try adding the following for
debugging reasons:
print("");
print_r($match);
print("");
that will let you see what $match looks like in its entirety.

[PHP] Re: All Queries TRUE even when they should be FALSE
Could be wrong, but the fact that $result isn't empty doesn't mean there
are rows... it would be better to say:
if ( !empty($result) ) {
echo "VALID QUERY";
} else {
echo "INVALID QUERY";
}
Although you should probably check $result against TRUE and FALSE instead.
If you want to know how many rows have been returned use mysql_num_rows()
(or something very close to that).
good luck!

[PHP] Re: Math problem (222)
Well, since it's for school I'll only point out a couple of issues...
- your for loop will never test the number 987 even though it should.
- add the following line rightr after you compute $numtotal:
print("$numtotal = $num1 + $num2 + $num3 + $num4 + $num5 + $num6\n");
and you'll see that you'll get output like:
28.6 = 2.6.5 + 2.5.6 + 6.2.5 + 6.5.2 + 5.2.6 + 5.6.2
which should help you understand why it's not doing what you think it's
doing.
good luck.

[PHP] Re: Code management
I'd separate out your shared PHP files and put them all in a directory
named say "my_php_lib". Organize it like PEAR if you want...
Then for each of your sites set up the directory structure something like
this:
/path/to/site/htdocs
/path/to/site/my_php_lib
where you've cvs-co'd my_php_lib. Then add the following to your web
server config for the above site:
php_value include_path .:/path/to/site/my_php_lib:/usr/local/lib/php
Now phpgrid can just include("ldap_rol") without worrying where it is.

I think that's because there are five keys for _$FILES['picname'].
According to the manual:
--
The contents of $_FILES from our example script is as follows. Note that
this assumes the use of the file upload name userfile, as used in the
example script above.
$_FILES['userfile']['name']
The original name of the file on the client machine.
$_FILES['userfile']['type']
The mime type of the file, if the browser provided this information. An
example would be "image/gif".
$_FILES['userfile']['size']
The size, in bytes, of the uploaded file.
$_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']
The temporary filename of the file in which the uploaded file was stored
on the server.
$_FILES['userfile']['error']
The error code associated with this file upload. ['error'] was added in
PHP 4.2.0
--
Try changing your script to... each($_FILES) and see what happens.
good luck.

[PHP] Here's a quick script to generate IE bookmarks of the functionreference.
Hi all - I find I spend a lot of time looking up functions in the manual and even with my local copy it takes awhile (click click, page down, click). So I wrote a script to run through the PHP documentation and generate a heiarchial directory of IE bookmarks for all of the functions. I just put that on my toolbar and can now quickly cruise to the function I want or think I want (usually I just need a name reminder). It's a little long if you leave all the sections in there, but the ones I never use I just deleted and it works great. Here's the script: http://www.adhesivemedia.com/~philip/makephplinks.phps Enjoy... do whatever you want with it, but don't blame me if it doesn't work for you :) -philip -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: Quick way to test series of integers
Just add zero to the variables in your processing script... ie... $var_1 += 0; $var_2 += 0; That way if they are set to one, no difference. if they are set to "" then they become zero. It's worked for me in the past. On Thu, 24 Oct 2002, Paul Kaiser wrote: > Hey there, > > I have around 50 checkboxes on an HTML form. Their "value" is "1".

[PHP] Re: Dazed and Confused
Yes... for the most part... think about it this way... (and please correct
me if I'm wrong :)
An associative array isn't ordered. It's key based. Think of it like a
dictionary, but one whose first and last several pages have been removed.
You wouldn't have any way of telling me the definition for the 100th word
since you don't know. But you can tell me the definition of "foo" is by
looking it up directly.
And you're not guaranteed anything about their order since, well, they
don't have any order :) I know that in PHP you can do:
$ary["y"] = "two";
$ary["x"] = "one";
print_r($ary);
and you'll get back:
Array
(
[y] => two
[x] => one
)
but you're not *guaranteed* to get it back in the same order you supplied
it. It just happens that you do in PHP. Back when I used Perl you
wouldn't necessarily get the same order repeatedly.
hope this helps.

[PHP] RE: Why $ on variable names?
It could have, but what does "array" consist of below?
variable = "foo";
array[variable] = variable;
Is it "variable" => "variable", or "foo" => "foo" or "variable" => "foo"
or ? By using $ you keep things simpler... at least to me :)
