[PHP] group comparision
i have a php script that has three variables that could be set to "1"
depending on the values of a form being sent to the .php file.
$add
$remove
$view
i need to do some error control in my script to make certain that one and
only one of these is set to "1". i am coming up with a very long
control structure:
if (($add="1") && ($remove="1") || ($add="1") && ($view="1") || etc...))
is there a shorter method to do this? and can i break this up onto
multiple lines to make my code a bit cleaner? can i do something like:
if (
($add="1") && ($remove="1") ||
($add="1") && ($view="1") ||
($remove="1") && ($view="1")
) {
Thanks! -Charles

Re: [PHP] group comparision
I don't think this is quite what I am looking for because I am hoping to
issue an error message if more than one variable has a value of one. Sorry
for not including this as a stipulation.

[PHP] while loops [ newbie ]
be forewarned that a bash fan is writing this message with little to no perl/c++ experience. i have a file $file that is full of usernames and descriptions, one per line. i have another variable $username that i would like to compare against each line in the file and remove the line that matches the username field identically. $filename charles routers craig systems tonyportmasters i would think that a while loop could do this and possibly write the output, minus the line i want to take away to a temp file and then copy it over. in bash i would use a statement like: while read i; do < blah > done < $filename > $filename.tmp however i am not certain how to read in the contents of a file for comparison within a while loop. this is just going to be an uphill thread since my next question will be for the < blah > portion :) thanks in advance -charles -- ** There are two major products to come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX.

[PHP] PHP 5.4 new output control API callback buffer
Hi,
I'm just wondering, what is the right output of below code should be
ob_start(function($o) { fwrite(STDERR, $o); });
echo 'hello';
ob_end_clean();
Does it should print "hello" or does it should print nothing?
In PHP 5.3, it prints hello, but in 5.4.0 it prints nothing.
Looking at the C code of PHP 5.4, it explicitly discards the output
buffer before calling the callback, except when flushing
or when using the internal callback handler.

I think you'd need to subtract it with 1 day
date_create(date('Y-m'))->add(new DateInterval('P1M'))->sub(new

Okay, scratch that, the standard function works fine
$number_of_days = idate('t', strtotime($year.'-'.$month));

[PHP] Bug with "+" sign when using CLI?
I'm using the CLI script shown below to parse and show all argv variables passed to it. ## -rwxr-xr-x1 nobody nobody plusbug.php ## #!/usr/bin/php -q ### END ## Command being entered: ./plusbug.php 'something+something' Output: Array ( [0] => ./plusbug.php [1] => something [2] => something ) I found nothing about a + splitting argument variables anywhere in the CLI documentation though I know this is a CGI characteristic. I've tried escaping the + character to no avail. I need to pass a string with a + character in it, anyone know anything I can do other than repopulating the character back into the string within the php script which would make what I'm trying to accomplish very difficult. In the php.ini I have: register_globals = On register_argc_argv = On Note: If I have either of these turned off, I am not even able to pick-up the arguments passed to the script whether I use $argv or $_SERVER['argv'].

RE: [PHP] Mail(): How much time?
There are a couple of spots it may be slowing down depending on how your
doing things. I have a mysql database and submit one query in which I
hold all the data in an array. Then I loop through the array so I do not
need to send multiple queries.
I use something like the following, though I like to stay away from the
mail() function, especially when sending a lot of emails.
$Subject = "This is the subject";
$Message = "This is the message\nand with a second line";
$Query_Result = mysql_query("SELECT `EID`, `Email`, FROM `Emails_Main`")
or die (mysql_error());
while ($CurrentRow = mysql_fetch_row($Query_Result)){
mail($CurrentRow[1], $Subject, $Message, "From:

}

Subject: [PHP] Mail(): How much time?
Hi,
I am getting all my emailadresses for my mailinglist out of a database
in a loop, and in that same loop I personalize the email by adding the
name and a personal URL (script.php?email=youremail). In that loop I
then send the email. This whole process takes about 0.5 to 2 seconds per
adress. This seems quite long to me. It can't be the database query or
the if conditions in the loop, so why is this taking so long?? I don't
have any problems with script execution time as I increment it in every
iteration. This is not a nice solution though. I am also wondering how
many adresses you can put in one subject, Cc or Bcc field?
thanks in advance

[PHP] JOIN for FREE ... Learn and Earn
Hello: My name is Charles Cedeno. I am now focusing in one online opportunity.I have tried several of these opportunities full of hype promising us thousands of dollars every month. I would get all excited and run to my family and friends with another "Great Money Maker ". It is a sad fact that many people who are in need of additional income, are being victimized by these fly by night scam artists. As a result of trying all these opportunities, I finally found the company which is true to their words. Not full of hype, but consistently send me the monthly check. They have given me the best compensation plan with their high % commission. I didn't have to perform some juggling act to maintain some 60 to 40% balance in my legs. It is not a pyramid, so there are no legs. It is not one of those binary compensation plan failures either. Everyone earns commissions here. They are providing a real service not the one that simply transfers wealth from the new signups to the people at the top.

[PHP] dealing with dates
Hi all, I posted earlier with some date questions, but realized I could probably do better with my question presented as such. I need to save the time date and time of posting for the records in a table. I then need to be able to search via a startdate and enddate text field where the user will be entering the date ranges as mm/dd/. What is the best way to handle adding the date to the MySQL record, and also how to search for that date based on a range in the above stated format?

[PHP] File upload and permissions
I have a form which uploads a file to my server. The files that are uploaded will be .doc files and will need to be able to be downloaded from a web page. My script works locally - I have tested it well files upload etc., but I am moving it to a commercial web server and am not sure what permissions should be set like for this directory. I have tried my script and gotten the files to upload but when the script tries to move them to the directory where I want to keep them I get a permission denied error.

[PHP] PHP and MySQL Full Text Search Problem
Hi all,
My first try at MySQL Full Text Search and it is not behaving ;)
Here is what I have for my query string:
$sql = "SELECT id, concat(fname, ' ', lname, ' ', degree1) as name".
" FROM tbl_personnel WHERE MATCH (fname,lname) AGAINST ('" .
$attributes['searchstring'] . "')";
This works pretty good. The only problem is it only works if there is
an exact match for either the first name (fname) or last name. For
example. In tbl_personnel there are 5 people with the first name
Christine.
If I pass Chris to this query in $attributes['searchstring'] I get 0
results. If I pass Christine I get all 5.
What do I need to modify to make this work?
Thanks,

This seems like what I need exactly, but I am having a bit of trouble
getting it to work.
Here is how I have worked around this, but I know there is a 'real' way
to do this. Any thoughts? I had to set the variables, or should I just
use the variables as ${dra_0} etc.?
// get the values for the default dra from array
while(list($key,$val) = each($r_p_dras)){
$n = "dra_$key";
echo $n;
$$n = $val['dra_id'];
}
$dra_a = "${dra_0}";
$dra_b = "${dra_1}";
$dra_c = "${dra_2}";
$dra_d = "${dra_3}";
$dra_e = "${dra_4}";

Re: [PHP] File upload Stuff ... well kinda.
Check the permissions on the directory you are trying to upload your files. The host I am using required me to either chmod the upload directory to 777 (not what I wanted to do) or run PHP with cgi-wrap enabled - this allowed my PHP application to run as the user and therefore had permission to write to a directory.

[PHP] PHP & MS Exchange Server problem
Hello All---
I'm having some trouble getting PHP to communicate with my Windows 2000 MS
Exchange Server... I'm running PHP 4.3.2 on a Win2000 machine serving with Apache 1.3.
The code I'm using is:
$mbox = imap_open("{x.x.x.x:143}","admin","adminpass", OP_HALFOPEN);
$err = imap_errors();
while (list($key, $val) = each($err))
print imap_utf7_decode($val)."\n";
$alrt = imap_alerts();
while (list($key, $val) = each($alrt))
print imap_utf7_decode($val)."\n";
This yields the error:
Warning: imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {x.x.x.x:143} in
c:\apache\apache\htdocs\sdimail.php on line 11
Connection refused
If I change the imap_open command to use {x.x.x.x:143\} as the host, I get a
different error:
Warning: imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {x.x.x.x:143\} in
c:\apache\apache\htdocs\sdimail.php on line 11
Can't open mailbox {192.168.0.3:143\}: invalid remote specification
which makes me suspect that I am actually able to connect but PHP isn't finding
anything it likes (what is it looking for?)
can anyone help me with this or at least point me towards a tutorial on using PHP with
MS Exchange?
Thanks in advance for your help,

[PHP] date question
Hi all,
I have a form where users will be adding publication dates for uploaded
files. I want to store the date in mySQL as date('U') format. If the
date is entered as mm/dd/ - will the date function know this or is
there some way of 'telling' php how the date to be converted is
formatted, if you all get what I am saying...
Thanks

[PHP] php, mysql, and method question
hi all, i have a question about a good method of handling this challenge. i have a table that contains articles. i have another table which contains the order 1 - 9 that i would like to display them in. this part is done, and is not a problem. here is where I am not sure how to proceed. 1. tbl_display_order - can only have 9 records in it (or do i just ignore anything beyond 9?) 2. when a new article is added to tbl_display_order - it needs to get the field that contains it's order set to 1 so it shows up first when I display the articles, and all the other articles need to have their order number incremented. Maybe there is a better way to do this? Just not sure. Maybe not with a database at all? Thanks for suggestions.

[PHP] Parsing results from mySQL query
Hi everyone, I have ALMOST gotten this working (mySQL part works). I have gotten the advice that this is easier to do in PHP then to try and make this query work in mySQL. Here is the query and a sampling of the current results (from phpMyAdmin) SELECT p.fname, p.lname, w.web_link, a.dra_id, dra.area, t.title FROM tbl_personnel p LEFT JOIN tbl_personnel_weblinks w ON p.id = w.person_id LEFT JOIN tbl_personnel_dras a ON p.id = a.person_id LEFT JOIN tbl_dra dra ON a.dra_id = dra.id LEFT JOIN tbl_personnel_titles t ON p.id = t.person_id; Because some of these people have multiple records in tbl_personnel_dras AND in tbl_personnel_titles - I get many repeats of each person (one for every combo).

I would like to display the data to the web like: fname lname title(s) - (this would be the list of titles for this person) Areas: area, area, area (this would be the list of areas in one place as opposed to making the record repeat) Thank you for any help.

The contents i need are the name of the link (plain text which sits out side the HTML code) and all the a href tags. I would like the a href (ie.the hyperlink) tags to be displayed on the HTML output as plain text. All other HTML tags would be kept in place. The reason why I am doing this is that I am placing a link's name and the http:// link in to flat files, where they can be updated just by appending to them. The srcipt that I have does the rest.

[PHP] Processing current file
Hello, I'm a PHP newbie who needs to serve a custom file format and turn it into valid XHTML. I can imagine someone using a similar technique to remove all comments from HTML files as they're being served, etc. I've configured Apache so that it assigns the file extension to PHP and prepends PHP code to create a pageServer object and call its render method. So far, so good. Now I need to process the file (minus the prepended PHP), and deliver the XHTML result rather than the original file. I'm thinking that there must be an easy way to do this, and would appreciate any tips. Thank you, -- Charles Wiltgen "Well, once again my friend, we find that science is a two-headed beast.

[PHP] fopen() with permissions?
Hello, There doesn't seem to be a way to fopen() with permissions. Someone commenting on the PHP manual suggested writing a file via FTP (which would allow me to specify a user name and password). Is this a reasonable thing to do? My plan is to create empty files via FTP, and then fopen($thefile, "r")-ing from there (since I think that will be faster than sending everything through an FTP server).

My understanding is that this lets you run CGI scripts as another user, but I'm not sure how I could take advantage of this since my code isn't run by users per se. I'm building something that I hope lots of people will use, and the challenge is that it needs to "just work" on almost any system that supports PHP because the audience is, well, not going to know anything -- the ones that'll have access to a command line won't generally know how to use it. If I could chmod 777 the directory for a millisecond, the file could get created/written fine and then everything would work fine from then on out because the file has the correct permissions. But in the notes for chmod, it sounds like lots of hosting providers disable this (which kinda rules it out). I will have the users' FTP user name/password, which is why I was thinking of creating files via FTP. But speed is important, so this seems like more of a "last resort" strategy. I'm stumped.

Re: [PHP] fopen() with permissions?
Hello,
Well, I'm able to make an empty file with
fopen("ftp://username:password@;domain.com/folder/file.prefs", "w")
However, I'm still nowhere because this file belongs to the user and her
group, not to Apache, so I still can't write to it.
Here's what I have to work with:
-- I have the user's FTP username and password, which is necessary to
install the software.
-- The provider does not allow the backticks (``) operator, system(),
exec(), passthru() or dl() for security reasons, and I assume this
is the case with most people's service providers.
I'm starting to think that PHP, although a great choice for anything but
in-house software, may not be the right choice for a product aimed at non-
technical people. Is there a PHPriest in the house?

A very good point, and this will work for me. I mentioned in my first note
that I'm afraid that this is about 1,000 times slower than creating/writing
a "local" file, but I don't see that I have an option.
Thank you!

So, DreamHost doesn't appear to have compiled PHP with FTP support. Can
anyone recommend a great FTP class? (I'm not exciting about doing this via
sockets, but I will if I have to...)

No curl, no exec. :^) I'm using sockets, and everything working except I can't CD to a directory with a period in it (which is, of course, what I need to do).

My provider uses suexec, but that just means that Apache and its processes run as (in my case) "dhapache" instead of "nobody", putting you in the same boat with the same paddle. I'm not sure why PHP doesn't let you fopen() with a user name and password. It seems obvious, so I assume there are technical issues that prevent this from happening. My solution (for now) was to use FTP, since I will have the user's FTP username/password. Worse, I can't depend on the FTP commands (my provider's PHP doesn't have them), so I'm using fsockopen() to "speak FTP" to do things like delete files I've created with fopen(). This is far slower and more error-prone, and I'm very, VERY interested in other portable solutions.

[PHP] File locking problem

This may also be a problem at some point, but currently I'm just trying to get it working in an test environment where only one instance is running. I know I can just use another empty file as a semaphore, but my performance is already killed by having to use FTP to create and delete files with PHP, and I need to do whatever I can do avoid it. Basically, it appears that using fflush() and fclose() is no guarantee that a file is completely written, and I'm wondering what I can do besides insert sleep() statements. -- Charles Wiltgen "Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra and then suddenly it flips over, pinning you underneath.

Crap. Good and bad news. So I hardcoded "/home/.pix/cwiltgen/coremessaging.com/index.php" and it worked every time. But then I hardcoded "/home/cwiltgen/coremessaging.com/index.php" (which is what $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] is returning) and *it* worked every time. So then I changed include($this->getSourceDirPath() . "index.php"); ...to... $foo = ($this->getSourceDirPath() . "index.php"); include($foo); ...and IT worked every time.

BTW, when I only get part of the file in the browser, I open it with Pico
and it's all there. So I know that $stuff = ob_end_clean() is working, and
that $stuff is being written to the fopen(ftp://...) pointer correctly.
I suspect that PHP is including before the file is closed, but not returning
an error. I haven't found any other mechanisms in PHP that would allow me
to verify that the file is really, really, really closed after using
fflush() and fclose() on an fopen("ftp://...";). Any ideas?
