Hi guys , I was Wondering if it would be possible to write a proyect like Control Panel or WebMin (both are in Perl ) using PHP instead or PERL ? Would it be possible ?

[PHP] ImageMagick and Convert In Php
Hello All, Ok , I am about to loose my mind... this list is my last option i think :) this is what i have tried : system("convert -pen black -draw 'text 120,60 YourText Here' imageA.jpg imageB.jpg"); The above does not work , the most i can get it imageA.jpg Becomes imageB.jpg but the text does not get drawn I striped the slashes, this does not work either, i su - to what my webserver runs on to see if i can run the system command via console, it works just fine , so i tried : $a = escapeshellcmd('-pen black -draw'); $b = escapeshellarg('text 120,20 YourTextHere); $c = escapeshellcmd("test.jpg doggy.jpg"); system("convert $a $b $c"); Same as the above, imageA becomes imageB and thats it. Permissions for testing are -rwxrwxrwx a basic test with system("convert -scale 500x600" imageA.jpg imageB.jpg"); = Works Perfect I am sorry for coming to the list for help , but i am at a final loss, i have also tried shell_exec and exec to clear anything up. I have hit the imagemagick mail list and i got "Php Might have some issues" so if anyone can lend a hand to get that system command to work , i would be most appreciative. Best Wishes Rick Wilson
[PHP] Uploading files with HTTP-Upload
We have an application that used PHP's FTP function to upload files. Now it worked until we upgraded to 4.1.2. We have now downgraded back to 4.1.1 but still no luck, it won't work. We have set upload_max_filesize and post_max_size as well, and that doesn't seem to help. Here is the following code. It has not changed since it went live: srand((double)microtime()*100); //Create random timestamp for the file temp file $randval = rand(); //Creates a temp file that the file gets put in, we then read that file $tmpfile = "/tmp/" . $file_name . $randval; copy($file,$tmpfile);//line 272 ftp_put($this->connection,$file_name,$tmpfile,FTP_BINARY); //line 273 unlink($tmpfile); return true; This is inside a function, and $file is the handle for the uploaded file and $file_name is the name of the uploaded file. The weird thing is that this will work for small files (< 1MB).

Re: [PHP] Next Book
I started off with a Core PHP4 book and quickly outgrew it. I find that most of the books don't get much past the basics either, so I find myself sticking to www.php.net and it's wonderful searchable documentation. I have read Web Application Development with PHP4.0 (http://www.phpwizard.net), which I enjoyed. While it does go into some more advanced PHP syntax, it mostly discusses application development concepts -- stuff that would be boring for any experienced programmer of other languages. I think it's geared at the people who picked PHP up as their first language (me included). I'd be interested in some good PHP books as well, I feel like I'm in a rut. At first, PHP was all new, and I was learning s much... but now if I think up a task I can visualize how to do it in PHP pretty easily. I know I have a LOT to learn, but I think my problem is I don't know proper programming techniques... Has anyone tried to expand into other languages?

Re: [PHP] **** Converting dynamic webpages into static HTML pages
When running PHP as a static binary, how does it handle text (HTML code) that falls outsize of the tags. Is the text ignored or outputted? Outputted. This can be very handy. One thing I use it for is customizing configuration files where only a small percentage of the overall text needs to be modified. Using in the text makes it very powerful. Now, my client has requested that I give him the ability to generate a static version of the catalog so that he can burn it onto a CD for distribution at trade shows. He wants the CD to be a snapshot of the catalog. Furthermore, he wants to be able to generate this "snapshot" frequently so that pricing info on the CD will be current. To accommodate this, the process for generating the snapshot must be easy and intuitive. If you are lucky, and the web site has links that will get you to all the products without searching or other based activity, just point wget -kr at the site, and you will end up with a directory containing flat HTML files for all the database generated pages in the site. Be sure the destination directory is in the same path as you want it to appear from the root directory of the CD. You won't be able to put it in the root directory. If you don't have good links in the program, you can use -i input_file to name all the pages you need to grab. Try >man wget for details. I haven't tried making this something that can be accessed from a CD using file:// based URLs, but I have been able to grab entire web sites to be hosted with Apache. You may need to use sed or something to clean up the tags. Rick -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

For each entry in the array, count the number of times a value occurs: while( list( , $Value ) = each( $MyArray )) { $NumberHits[ $Value ] ++; } sort $NumberHits keeping the key/value pairs together. You can find a sort function that will do it here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.array.php The first or last entry in the sorted array is the mode. If all the entries have the same number of hits there is no mode. I'm not sure what the mode of (1, 1, 2, 5, 9, 19, 19) would be, but I'm suspect a good definition of mode will tell what to do if more than one value ties for having the most hits.

What do you mean "return to the calling page"? The exit() command simply ceases processing of PHP and HTML.

If there is something "wrong" there, you nwant to return to the page from which you hyper-linked. If that is the scenario, the valriable $HTTP_REFERER refers to the calling page.

Put the files in a directory named in the include_path such that you don't have to mess with any kind of path information within the programs. That's what it is there for. If you have to move the include files which would you rather do: a) change the include_path in php.ini, httpd.conf, or .htaccess. b) edit every file in the project to change the path. I have a group of common include files most of my sites use, and another group of files for each domain. The include path for each web sites is set in the webserver configuration, and looks like this: ... php_value include_path /web/lib:/web/hosts/www.somedomain.com/lib:. You can group files into directories under the include_path to keep related include files together. include( 'category/program.inc' ); will search every directory in the include path for a subdirectory named 'category' containing a file 'program.inc' to include.

Only words contained in the set are allowed. You can also look at a set as a number, and do bit manipulation on it. The list of values above are 0 to 7 when used in a numeric context. but ENUM is totally unnecessary in Postgres because it supports foreign keys. The big difference using set and enum is in data storage. If you look on the disk you will find both types are stored in the smallest integer they fit in. Even 'red,green,blue' fits in a single byte each time it is stored. This is more standard anyway, and if you need to update the set there is no need to touch the database schema. I like being able to define some things in the schema. I have widgets in my toolkit that build arrays of checkboxes, radio buttons or drop down lists based on the values allowed in an enum or set.

In many cases you can collect all the data you need in a single query. Every field in the Schedule table is a key to another table that has to be looked up and translated to something people will understand. Note the two different ways of connecting tables with LEFT JOIN. USING( fieldname ) connects the table being joined, with the table listed right before it, using the same fieldname in both. The ON syntax allows you to use differently named fields, and/or a different table.

I don't believe there is one. At the very least you can: touch /usr/sbin/sendmail which creates an empty file where ./configure expects to find sendmail. qmail comes with a wrapper called sendmail which emulates sendmail. I'm not sure where php's configure expects to find sendmail but you can try copying/linking the wrapper to /usr/lib and/or /usr/sbin. This is best: ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail Now any program expecting to find sendmail in the default location will find the Qmail wrapper instead, and will work.

Re: [PHP] Re: loading a db table into a php array from mysql
% different ways of connecting tables with LEFT JOIN. USING( fieldname ) % connects the table being joined, with the table listed right before it, % using the same fieldname in both. The ON syntax allows you to use % differently named fields, and/or a different table. I still don't get what a left or right or outer or inner join is... When looking up values in a second table, LEFT JOIN has two properties that make it my choice: o It lets me specify exactly how the tables are linked together. o It returns results for the first table even if there are no entries in the second table. For example, if one of my classes did not yet have a room assigned, the rest of the data will still be returned. > I've read the mysql docs for the syntax and some examples, but this is > a place where I'll need to go to outside tutorials.

This doesn't have much to do with PHP. In fact it can probably be done without PHP. The ideal setup depends on your situation. How many domans? How many users? How much email? If you have multiple domains, I suggest you look at http://inter7.com/freesoftware/ They have a complete package to manage multiple virtual domains on a Qmail server using only one system user. I've been using it for a couple years, with good luck. There is an active development effort If I was going to setup two machines as mail servers, I would put half the users on each, with all the programs running on both. Then I would setup MX records so that each server backed up the other, collecting email for later delivery if the other server is down.This way if one of the machines goes down, half your users still get mail, and the messages for the other half are queued on the remaining server. Be sure to keep a backup copy of one machine's configuration on the other. You should have everything you need to re-build a dead server on the other machine. If you put the user mailboxes and mail queue on separate hard drives you can pop that drive from one machine to another very quickly. You can run Apache on the mail server to manage email accounts, and for webmail, but keep all non-mail related web services off of it. You don't want all the web developers logging on to the mail server. Rick -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Not really. PHP has its own method of handling variables which does not make a copy of data unless it has to. See: http://www.zend.com/zend/art/ref-count.php This may be the most important paragraph in the article: Note that PHP 4 is not like C: passing variables by reference is not necessarily faster than passing them by value. Indeed, in PHP 4 it is usually better to pass a variable by value, except if the function changes the passed value or if a reference is being passed.
