RE: [PHP] sending SMS messages via PHP

2001-03-09 Thread Simon Ould

Have you tried www.deltica.com ?

I haven't used them myself but am planning to in the near future - as soon
as I get the site finished.
You buy messages in blocks:
100 msgs £8.00 
1,000 msgs £70.00 
10,000 msgs £500.00 

They also have a trial service where you get 4 free messages.
You don't appear to be able to receive text messages.

Regards

Simon.

RE: [PHP] Problem with the HTTP_REFERER

2001-04-27 Thread Simon Ould

My interpretation of the problem is:
You want a link on page A.php which points to B.php, 
B.php does some stuff, then redirects the user to page C.php

You want the value of HTTP_REFERER on page C.php to be A.php

Correct? If so, read on, if not, then delete this email.

I'm using php-4.0.4pl1, apache 1.3.14, IE5.5, win2000, and this works on my
system.

My two solutions both use the following 2 files :
[index.html]


Test


Click here



[targetpage.php]


targetpage.php


You came to this page from ""




Solution 1:
Use the php function "header"
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php)

[test.php]
http://localhost/referer_test/targetpage.php";;
header ("Location: ".$web);
?>

---
Solution 2:
Pass HTTP_REFERER in the URL: This also works on my system, but isn't
exactly the neatest of methods.

[test.php]


test.php


window.location.href=\"http://$web\";";
?>






Hope that helped,

Simon.

RE: [PHP] Problem with the HTTP_REFERER

2001-04-27 Thread Simon Ould

I guess that this is worth a mention: (Copied from
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php)
"Remember that the header() function must be called before any actual output
is sent, either by normal HTML tags blank lines in a file, or from PHP. It
is a very common error to read code with include(), or require(), functions,
or another file access function, and have spaces or empty lines that will
output before header() is called. The same problem exists when using a
single PHP/HTML file."

RE: [PHP] PHP Book?

2001-04-27 Thread Simon Ould

"PHP Developers Cookbook", by Sterling Hughes
I like it: as the name might suggest, it is packed with real-World examples.

I also bought "Beginning PHP Programming" (Wrox press). Mistake. Big
mistake. It is aimed at people who are *completely* new to programming. The
review that I read of it didn't convey this aspect :(

For example, in chapter 5 or 6 there is a paragraph along the lines of:
"You know that we told you to make your code reusable? Here's why: you can
use something called a function..." 
I actually found it vaguely funny, whilst I was banging my head against the
wall.

RE: [PHP] Active-X

2001-03-28 Thread Simon Ould

The following code snippet was copied from
http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/check-mimes.html
Looking at it, I guess that it only works with Netscape.
Maybe for a less UA specific solution you could have a start page that
contains a small flash movie that redirects the user to the flash enhanced
version of your site. 
If they aren't redirected then they don't have a flash enabled UA: redirect
them to a standard HTML version of your site.

Regards,

Simon.
