[PHP] Anyone fancy getting paid to improve my PHP in London?
Do any experienced PHP programmers in London fancy helping me improve my PHP? I'd like to know where my code could be improved and to be shown how an experienced programmer would approach a new site. I'd rather pay the right person a high amount than find someone cheap! Thanks, Tom PS - May as well take this opportunity to thank to everyone on the list that's helped me out so far!

Rob,
if ($blank_cheque == "cleared")
{
$set_temp = "warm";
$drinks_order = "martini";
$service = "massage";
$num_ladies = $tasty . " & " . $robs_wife;
}
else
{
$blank_cheque = 0;
}
Think you should be looking at the latter ;)

I use this and find it very good: http://getid3.sourceforge.net/
Here is some code I'm using on one of my sites.
Bit messy - but it works for me :)
require_once('../public_html/audio/getid3/getid3.php');
function show_audio($type) {
//Set path to audio files
if ($type == "rmx") {
$path = '/audio/productions/remixes/';
$DirectoryToScan = '../public_html/audio/productions/remixes/';
}
elseif ($type == "pro") {
$path = '/audio/productions/original/';
$DirectoryToScan = '../public_html/audio/productions/original/';
}
$getID3 = new getID3;
$dir = opendir($DirectoryToScan);
while (($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) {
$FullFileName = realpath($DirectoryToScan.'/'.$file);
if (is_file($FullFileName)) {
set_time_limit(30);
$ThisFileInfo = $getID3->analyze($FullFileName);
getid3_lib::CopyTagsToComments($ThisFileInfo);
echo (!empty($ThisFileInfo['comments_html']['artist']) ?
implode('', $ThisFileInfo['comments_html']['artist']) : ' ')
. " - ";
echo (!empty($ThisFileInfo['comments_html']['title']) ?
implode('', $ThisFileInfo['comments_html']['title']) : ' ');
echo " (" . (!empty($ThisFileInfo['audio']['bitrate']) ?
round($ThisFileInfo['audio']['bitrate'] / 1000).' kbps' : ' ')
. ") - ";
echo (!empty($ThisFileInfo['playtime_string']) ?
$ThisFileInfo['playtime_string'] : ' ')
. " - ";
echo 'Download';
}
}
}
Then I simply upload audio files to the right directory and I don't
have to update the page that lists them.

Sounds like quite a good idea. Can anyone tell me if there's any reason for not doing that, even on pages that do not require session data? Or perhaps use an htaccess file to server side include a file file to all files under an admin folder or something and another to destroy the session. I'm thinking of smaller, low-traffic sites. I know people are going to say, if they're small sites, why can't you only start sessions on the relevant pages but it sounds like it could work well for me.

[PHP] MySQL Queries in PHP
Hi List, Just wanted to pick your brains please? I'm trying to standardise on the way I query databases and move away from the Dreamweaver built-in functions (which I know you all hate!) ;) I've been on this list for about 5 years now and I don't think I've ever heard anyone mention the Pear packages, eg: MDB_QueryTool and wondered if there was any reason why not? I found some classes on phpclasses and have already started using one of them by Henry Chen and there are plenty more. I am still using Dreamweaver as the text editor for PHP on a Mac and trying to code things manually but building SQL queries are one of the biggest problems I come across. To be honest, Dreamweaver used to be fine but for me, historically on both PC and Mac, after a while it decides that it can connect to the DB but cannot see any of the tables which prevent using the wizards which is why I'm moving away from it. All tutorials on the net are different and I'd like some info on the best practices that you guys follow when dealing with MySQL. Thanks in advance, Tom PS - I'm only dealing with simple queries: show, insert, update, delete, etc.

I do understand SQL (at a very basic level) but I'm trying to start using the same custom functions for future projects and thought, "I wonder if there's anything in Pear?"

[PHP] Directory Listing
Hi gang, I'm trying to create a script to read the files in a folder (approx 2000) and get the filename, path and last modified date in a tabulated format to copy into excel. (We have been issued a CD and need to get all files documented and assigned to an owner.) I've tried loads of different scripts but can't get them working with all the features. I think the best one to work with is this (although I'm having problems getting the date but don't worry about that at the moment) Here is an example of what I'm getting out from the $dirTree array: Array ( [./Tender] => Array ( [0] => 9216_100_REV_V1.0_bound.dwg ) [./Tender/Tender Docs] => Array ( [0] => BAA Works Terms v1.1 (22.05.08).pdf [1] => Contents of Volumes 1 and 2.pdf [2] => Cover Letter and Instructions.doc [3] => Form of Tender.doc ) [./Tender/Tender Docs/Health and Safety Questionnaire] => Array ( [0] => NT Baggage Tender Questionaire rev2.xls ) [./Tender/Tender Docs/NTB BH Lighting] => Array ( [0] => 3J-B-1 PIR.xls [1] => 3J-B-2B PIR.xls [2] => 3J-B-2R PIR.xls [3] => 3J-B-3R PIR.xls [4] => 3J-D PIR.xls [5] => 4G-G PIR.xls [6] => 4J-B-1B PIR.xls [7] => 4J-B-1R PIR.xls [8] => 4J-B-2B PIR.xls [9] => 4J-B-2R PIR.xls [10] => 4J-B-4 PIR.xls [11] => 5G-G PIR.xls ) I'm having problems getting my head round how to get access the array data so that I can format it how I want, eg: Folder Filename Tender 9216_100_REV_V1.0_bound.dwg Tender/Tender Docs BAA Works Terms v1.1 (22.05.08).pdf Tender/Tender Docs Contents of Volumes 1 and 2.pdf etc. I'm trying to do this at work (php is a hobby and this is the first time I've tried to use it in my electrical engineering job) in notepad without any code highlighting, etc. and tearing my hair out to try and avoid going through the CD manually! Could anybody please help or let me know which function I need to read up on? I've tried countless searches on array formatting, etc and not getting anywhere.

Ended up tidying it up and using Ralph's idea and now working nicely.
(Need to 'view source' to see it properly as I was having issues
copying into excel but this is fine for what I'm trying to do.)
Now I'm having problems getting the file date.
I'm using: $modDate["$file"][] = date ("d m Y", filemtime($file));
and trying to merge it into the array but I'm missing something. Any
ideas?
Refer to lines 5, 14, 17,
New code:
$folder ){
//echo $key . "\n"; //Don't need folders as they're shown with the files
foreach( $folder as $file){
echo str_replace("./Tender", "", $key) . "/\t" . $file . "\n";
}
}
?>

Re: [PHP] Re: Directory Listing
I've been playing about more and now I have the following code:
$folder ){
echo "\n"; //Don't need folders as they're shown with the files
foreach( $folder as $file){
echo str_replace("./", "", $key) . "\t" . $file . "\t\n"; //Pad
out with a tab for easy import into excel
}
}
print_r($dirTree); //Just using this for debugging
?>
The output is fine for the paths and filenames but I still can't get
the dates showing. It's getting the correct date for some but not all.
I did something else earlier and found that all the dates were
01/01/1970 but at least there was a date for every file but can't
remember how I go there!
Here is a sample output result:

Cheers Ash,
I read that too, but I was getting the error for over 90% of the files
which I know are generally only a few MB.
I've started from scratch again and come up with something that is
easier to deal with but still having one last problem!
The output I'm getting is:

All I need to do now is get a tab between the filename & the path
I'm thinking I need to explode on the "/" and somehow match the last
value but stumped at the moment!

Yes.
I did try using if(is_dir($file)) { insert tab } but couldn't get it to work.
Also tried counting the length of the $file value and and comparing it
to the position of the first "/" using strpos and if they matched then
assume it was a directory but couldn't get it to work either.
Out of the 2000 files there are less than 50 directories so it wasn't
too much trouble to go through and sort them out manually but I'd love
to hear a way of doing it properly

Hi,

I would like instead of that, to display my own error message... in fact,
i
would like to display something like : "We are sorry but temporary we have
some technical issues. Please try again later".
how can i do that ?
i tried to do :
$conn = pg_connect($conn_string);
if ($conn) // check if database is online
{
// close database connection
pg_close($conn);
}
else
{
// impossible to connect to DB
die('Maintenance in progress... Try later.');
}
but it still display the previous warning message.
thanks for your help.

[PHP] PHP Dynamic Form Generator
Dear list, I'm currently reviewing a load of scripts to dynamically generate a form for a membership system. I have designed a registration form, and once registered and logged in there are a load of different options relevant to people's profile (which will all be radio check boxes) in a 2nd form. As the number of these check-boxes may change, I'd like to be able to read the structure of the relevant table and generate the form from that. I just wanted to ask everyone for any advice on this and which scripts you use? I'm not being lazy, but currently I'm looking at 8 of them from phpclasses.org and sourceforge and I'm sure someone out there knows exactly what I'm looking for.

[PHP] Trouble with using isset and form posting
I think I'm missing something here really obvious! I am using a script where you get a variable from one page and post to another. I've just realised that some people are jumping straight to the second page (it rates higher in search engines) so the variable (yourname) remains unset. I want to use isset so that if there is no variable the field is pre-filled to prompt for Your Name? A simplified version of the code is shown below and is posting to itself.

[PHP] Best table structure
Please can someone let me know their opinion on the following:
I have written some code for submitting a top 20 music chart online.
I use the following to insert into mysql:
INSERT INTO chart (name, chartpos, artist, title, label) VALUES
('$name', '1', '$artist', '$title', '$label'),
('$name', '2', '$artist2', '$title2', '$label2'),
('$name', '3', '$artist3', '$title3', '$label3'),
-- repeat til -
('$name', '20', '$artist20', '$title20', '$label20'),
Another page queries the table and sorts by name (multiple people submit
charts) and latest date.
My question is this:
Would I be better keeping this format and inserting multiple rows on each
submit, or to have one row for all 81 variables ($name, 20 x Position, 20 x
Artists, 20 x Titles, 20 x Labels.)
I know that the latter will be easier to query.
Also, without maintenance, the size of the table for the current method will
get extremely large. Will that affect server performance?
I am still a newbie, so plain explanations would be most appreciated.
Thanks very much in advance.

Re: [PHP] trouble trying to connect to gmail server.
This may not be relevant as I'm only glancing over this as I have to

you can download to another email client like Thunderbird or Outlook,
so maybe the same applies?
Anyway, I'm looking to find a way of accessing my gmail as I am unable

[PHP] Gallery Script
Hi all,
I have a working gallery script which reads a directory then shows all
thumbnails, each linking to the full size image.
I'm trying to change it so that the page shows an image (fullsize)
then links to the previous/next images in the sequence & then all the
thumbnails below (the bit that's working fine at the moment). The
filenames are straight from the camera (eg DSC102834.jpg or something)
so I know that I need to get all the filenames into an array then use
the key indexing or something, but I'm not sure how to do it?
Also I'm not sure if I should be using readdir or glob?
I've modified the code below so that it just displays the text of the
filename rather than the actual image to speed up testing/reduce
bandwidth.
If anyone could point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it
Here is my code:
\r\n\r\n";
$count = 0;
if(is_dir($folder))
{ if($handle = opendir($folder))
{ while(($file = readdir($handle)) !== false)
{ //Filter out any unwanted files
if ($file !="thumbs.db" && $file !="_notes" &&
!is_dir($file))
{
echo "" . $file .
"\r\n";
$count++;
if (($count % 4) == 0)
{ echo "\r\n";
echo "\r\n";
}
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
}
echo "\r\n\r\n";
echo "\r\n";
echo "There are " . $count . " photos";
?>

Thanks Andrew,
It's the link for the first image I'm having problems with.
I can create a table with all the images, but I can't work out how to
specify a single image to use as the main (larger image)
Let's say that I've got 4 images called img1, img2, img3, img4. The
script gets the filenames using readdir() but how do I associate the
results with one image, eg img3? I thought it would be something like
$files[2] then the prev/next would be $files[1] & $files[2]
The section of code is:
if ($file !="thumbs.db" && $file !="_notes" && !is_dir($file))
{
echo "" .
$file . "\r\n";
$count++;
if (($count % 4) == 0)
{ echo "\r\n";
echo "\r\n";
}
}
}
Any ideas?

[PHP] Glob
Please can someone help me understand the following:
I have 4 images with a .jpg extension in a folder.
The following reads all four:
$files = glob("thumbs/{*.gif,*.jpg,}",GLOB_BRACE);
All good, however, I noticed that if the extension is in capital
letters, eg .JPG it doesn't work. Apparently this is because when
using *. in glob it's case-sensitive (I have RTFM/STFW)
So, I would expect the following to work, but it's reading each image twice!
$files = glob("thumbs/{*.gif,*.jpg,*.jpeg,*,png}",GLOB_BRACE);
What am I missing?

[PHP] Word Wrap on highlight_file
Can anyone tell me how to wrap the results of highlight_file so it
doesn't mess up the size of my table div?
I tried the following and doesn't work!
if ($ext == "phps") {
$showcode = highlight_file($pathtoscripts . $_GET['file']);
echo wordwrap($showcode, 70);
} else {
echo "Nice try, but you are not authorised to view the source of
files with a $ext extension! ;)\n";
}
Thanks,
Tom

Jochem,
Thanks for that. So presumably it's not possible to do it in PHP?
Haven't come across array_pop before - that's much quicker than what I
was doing before. Thanks :)
And thanks for the pointers about sanitizing. That was my next step!

The manual says: *Warning*
In PHP versions prior to 4.4.0, *"next"* is incorrectly computed as +2. A
typical solution to this is to use *"+1"*.
Dunno if that helps you out? Is the other server > 4.4.0?

> An example that may help:
when using strtotime("wednesday"), you will get different results whether
you ask before or after wednesday, since strtotime always looks ahead to the
*next* weekday.
strtotime() does not seem to support forms like "this wednesday", "wednesday
this week", etc.
the following function addresses this by always returns the same specific
weekday (1st argument) within the *same* week as a particular date (2nd
argument).
function weekday($day="", $now="") {
$now = $now ? $now : "now";
$day = $day ? $day : "now";
$rel = date("N", strtotime($day)) - date("N");
$time = strtotime("$rel days", strtotime($now));
return date("Y-m-d", $time);
}
example use:
weekday("wednesday"); // returns wednesday of this week
weekday("monday, "-1 week"); // return monday the in previous week
ps! the ? : statements are included because strtotime("") without gives 1
january 1970 rather than the current time which in my opinion would be more
intuitive...
[PHP] [Slightly OT] Apple MacBook MAMP and Logic
I am looking to buy a Mac in a couple of weeks primarily for writing music using Apple Logic Studio 8 which will run absolutely fine on a MacBook. However, I am considering installing something like MAMP and using that as my development server too at which point I'm wondering whether I should invest in a MacBook Pro or whether I can get away with the lower spec MacBook. So I guess what I'm asking is, does having Apache, MySQL & PHP installed on a Mac use much system resources?

[PHP] Changing URLs from Relative to Absolute
Dear list, I was recently trying to write a script where a user copy and pastes their HTML code to display something on a listings site and tried to find a way to change the URL of an image from relative to absolute. For example becomes http://domain.com/images/1.jpg";>. That is easy enough and I created a regexp, but I found that some people call the img tag differently such as: Does anyone have experience of this? How can I create a regexp that will find it in every case? Thanks in advance. Tom -- Tom Chubb [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] What's the regex for this...?
h a lot in the actual pattern (especially if you're dealing with
pathnames) you might want to use something else:
!/root/home/random!
To make a match case-insensitive, all you need to do is append the option
i to the pattern:
/colou?r/i
Perl-style functions support these extra metacharacters (this is not a full
list):
\b A word boundary, the spot between word (\w) and non-word (\W) characters.
\B A non-word boundary.
\d A single digit character.
\D A single non-digit character.
\n The newline character. (ASCII 10)
\r The carriage return character. (ASCII 13)
\s A single whitespace character.
\S A single non-whitespace character.
\t The tab character. (ASCII 9)
\w A single word character - alphanumeric and underscore.
\W A single non-word character.
Example:
/\bhomer\b/
Have a donut, Homer no match
A tale of homeric proportions! no match
Do you think he can hit a homer? match
Corresponding to ereg() is preg_match(). Syntax:
preg_match(pattern (string), target (string), optional_array);
Example:
$pattern = "/\b(do(ugh)?nut)\b.*\b(Homer|Fred)\b/i";
$target = "Have a donut, Homer.";
if (preg_match($pattern, $target, $matches)) {
print("
Match: $reg[0]
");
print("
Pastry: $reg[1]
");
print("
Variant: $reg[2]
");
print("
Name: $reg[3]
");
}
else {
print("No match.");
}
Results:
Match: donut, Homer
Pastry: donut
Variant: [blank because there was no "ugh"]
Name: Homer
If you use the $target "Doughnut, Frederick?" there will be no match,
since there has to be a word boundary after Fred.
but "Doughnut, fred?" will match since we've specified it to be
case-insensitive.

[PHP] Image Destroy
I know this will be really simple, but I'm struggling to get my head round
the use of imagedestroy()
I have some code which uploads an image, resizes to create a smaller image
and thumbnail then deletes the source image.
My question is which images need to be destroyed?
I've read the even reusing a variable name still keeps the old one in
memory.
Here is the code...
$image1 = basename($_FILES['image1']['name']);
$image2 = basename($_FILES['image2']['name']);
$image3 = basename($_FILES['image3']['name']);
$uploaddir = '/home/public_html/images/upload/';
$uploadfile1 = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['image1']['name']);
$uploadfile2 = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['image2']['name']);
$uploadfile3 = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['image3']['name']);
// echo '';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image1']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile1)) {
echo "Image1 is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
echo "";
}
// echo '';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image2']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile2)) {
echo "Image2 is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
echo "";
}
// echo '';
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image3']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile3)) {
echo "Image3 is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";
} else {
echo "Possible file upload attack!\n";
echo "";
}
echo "Car inserted into database";

Should I be using imagedestroy($sourcefile) each time I create an image or
imagedestroy($targetfile) or both?

[PHP] Max File Upload Size
This is a really stupid question, but I've not been able to find an
answer for it.
I have always thought that your max upload size is limited to the
value in the php.ini file.
However I recently changed a site to a new server which had problems
with memory on one of the image resizing scripts.
I managed to work around it by inserting one line at the start of the
problem script:
ini_set("memory_limit","32M");
Can a similar thing be done with the upload_max_filesize?
Assuming that it can't, what is a good workaround? Using FTP within a script?
This is for uploading an audio file, typically 4MB.
Thanks in advance,
Tom

Subject: [PHP] Function Misbehaving
The following function is a basic user auth prep procedure for multiple
pages. If the url desired is different than the default a url is supplied.
This function works most of the time flawlessly; except, on some pages when
the url has a value that was passed, the function still thinks url is NULL
until it is used, such as printing it or assigning another variable its
contents. Another way to eliminate this sporadic problem is to rename the
parameter url to something else, such as url2. There are no global or
session vars with the url name. Why does php think url is null when it is
not, but only fault in this manner part of the time. Any help would be
appreciated.
// Code
function Secure_Login($user,$pass,$db,$pg,$url=NULL)
{
//print($url); if I uncomment this url
is no longer null or if I rename url to url2
$checkuser =
is_user($user,$pass,$db);
if (!$checkuser)
{
Secure_Email($pg);
if(isset($url))

I'm now getting:

refused in
/home/sites/tnhosting.co.uk/public_html/scripts/gclub/updateplaylist.php

How come you can access it and I can't?!?
Permissions are 755.
Obviously I was getting it when using file_get_contents('player.php')
but when using the URL I get connection refused.
(Don't think that it makes any difference, but allow_url_fopen is on)
BTW, Brad, I was stripping the HTML tags around the object ok, but I'm
echoing variables in player.php.
$song_url & $song_title, are read from a seperate file after upload
and that is what's being updated by this script, but the textarea was
showing the php code.
Thanks for your patience, guys.

php is transparently making a http request to the webserver there is no
way the webserver will differentiate between your script and every other request
and give your the scrip the source code while everyone else is recieving
the result of running the script:
file_get_contents("http://www.tnhosting.co.uk/scripts/gclub/player.php";);

it makes a difference, and it sounds likes it's off - another possibility
is that safe_mode is on (and that safe_mode blocks allow_url_fopen), but I don't
know about that - you'll have to test it.
phpinfo() says that allow_url_fopen is on and safe mode is off
you can double check that you can reach your site from the box itself by doing a
very simple 'wget' check from the commandline (assuming you have ssh access):
wget http://www.tnhosting.co.uk/scripts/gclub/player.php
if that downloads a page then the problem is very like to be php.

Did manage to get it working though using
$player = file_get_contents('player.php');
//Strip out unnecessary HTML
if(preg_match('/(.*)/s', $player, $matches)) {
$content = $matches[1];
}
function phpWrapper($content) {
ob_start();
$content = str_replace('<'.'?php','<'.'?',$content);
eval('?'.'>'.trim($content).'<'.'?');
$content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $content;
}
echo "" .
phpWrapper($content) . "";
Bit messy, but it works at least. :D
Thanks for your help though.

I have a reseller account and on another site, the DNS entries were

The domain www.tnhosting.co.uk is probably not resolving to the right IP
when used from that box. Can't think of any other reason that would work
remotely but not locally.

Re: [PHP] file_get_contents
The host support team told me that:
Our servers do not allows a HTTP connection onto itself. This is a
security precaution to stop recursive code. You can try to reference
the code by path rather than HTTP
...which works fine!

[PHP] Readdir
What would be the best way to retrieve a list of files from an upload folder that are called "id" where the extension could be .doc .txt or .pdf For example, I have a folder where people can upload a document and the document is renamed as their user id.

try the glob() function, something like:
$id = getUserId();
foreach (glob("/path/to/user/files/$id.*") as $file) {
echo $file,"";

[PHP] Date Question
Please can you help me. I've created a page where problems are posted into a database and I am using the datetime format in MySQL and trying to find the best way to display it in the 17/03/06 format.

Re: [PHP] Here is a silly question
I'm very interested to see the best option for this.
Currently I set 2 variables in the include file (header.inc)
$siteurl = "http://www.yourdomain.com/ <http://www.yourdomain.com/psp/>";
$pathto = "/home/location_on_server/public_html/";
Then for includes I do something like:
include($pathto."functions.php");
And for images, links, etc.

I was using $_FILE['image']['name'][0], instead of
$_FILES['image']['name'][0]

[PHP] HTML Mail script reading text from MySQL
I can't work out how to load the text from a recordset result into a variable for sending using mail in a script. I have a script which creates a dynamic table then I want to load the table's HTML into a variable which will be echoed in the mail function. I can't work out how to do this. I've tried calling the file using exec and fopen but I don't get any result. I have googled and RTFM (especially variable scope) but just can't work out how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. PS - I know there are many Mail classes out there, but I also realise that this is something I will want to know how to do at a later time. Thanks, Tom
