[PHP] email a web page

[DC]

Hi all,

I have a newsletter ready to email to my database of customers.

The entire newsletter incl graphics , layout etc is enclosed within a form
which posts to a second page which s supposed to email the desired
page..but it does not work! The code is listed below

___

Unable to connect to the " .
"database server at this time." );

exit();

}

if (! @mysql_select_db("NameOfDataBase") )

{

echo( "Unable to locate the " .
"database at this time." );

exit();

}

?>

Error performing query: " .
  mysql_error() . "");
  exit();
 }
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) )
 {

 $message = "
 

::: Welcome to my Newsletter  :::






  



content content etc



  

  



";

  $email = $row["EmailAddress"];

  (line 79) $headers .= "From: My site.com<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
   $headers .= "X-Sender: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: testDC\n";
   $headers .= "Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$subject = " Club Newsletter";
   (line 91) mail($email, $subject , $message, $headers);
$headers = "";

 }

echo("$message");

?>
_

and then I get this message each time.

Warning: Undefined variable: headers in
c:\www\cavalier\admin\newsletteremailcommand.php on line 79

Warning: Failed to Connect in
c:\www\cavalier\admin\newsletteremailcommand.php on line 91


Any quick and easy tips to get my newsletter happening? Even a new script or
easy tutorial in Englsih.


Thanks

DC

[PHP] highlighting Search Results

[DC]

Hi all,

I have a mySQL database running with PHP4. I have constructed a search form
($searchSite) which returns results in a results page & now I want to have
the word that was entered in the search form highlight in the results page.

eg User enters a search for products using the word " gardening"

Results page might return:

"this shovel is a great gardening tool" and  "to be a expert in gardening,
you will need"...I want the word gardening to be bold wherever
it is displayed.

My results page has the following code to display search results: BTW it
works like a dream...I just want to jazz it up a bit.

");
echo("" . $row["Description"] . "");
echo("" . $row["ProductName"] . "");
echo("\$" . $row["RetailPrice"] . "");

?>

How do I do this to highlight my search words?

Thanks, any ideas much appreciated by this PHP newbie.

[PHP] Date and time functions

[DC]

Hi all,

I am on the East Coast of Australia.

Do you know if by default if the date/time display will display only East
coast Australia time, or will display  from the user's time zone?
eg Will USA users see the Australian time or their own time?
Would this cause a issue with timestamping an order when it comes to writing
to a mySQL database?

Can someone suggest a script that may give me the option to offer both  time
zones to the user?

[PHP] custom tag support

[dc]

I was curious if there was any custom tag support like jsp or cold fusion in
php (or outside libraries). I'm looking at trying to make re-usuable
components and want to use something more than including simple classes or
function calls.

Thanks for your time,

Re: [PHP] custom tag support

[dc]

I was simply looking for a way to easily develop re-usable components. I
know that functions can be used in php, however, the custom tag (xml type)
syntax is more clean and easy to view. I may try using xml with functions to
get what I desire.

I don't think custom tags will go away with functions. They exist in jsp
also and are good to use. In fact at Java One there was a push towards
removing all java code from the jsp. Simply use custom tags. This allows you
to divide your development team into java guru's and web guru's. The web
developers would not need to know all of the java code. They would simply
need a listing of the custom tags. This becomes handy if you have people
that are inexperienced in Java. You can give them a small pocket reference
of the tags you use in the jsp's rather than a 1-2 inch book on Java.

As for the C approach...I may try that also. I'll have to dust off my
Ritchie book.

Thanks for the help,
Dan

[PHP] Re: how do you use a CLASS ???

[dc]

Lets say you have a class called Car.

You should see a "constructor in the class the same as the class name:

class Car {

function Car(possible params...) {

}

function start() {
...
}

function stop() {

}
}

To create a new car object you would do something like this:

$myCar = new Car(...possible params...);

Note that you should pass the parameters that the constructor expects (for
instance the constructor could have a parameter called type).

[PHP] Re: how do you use a CLASS ???

[dc]

Class files should be independant of platform. However, that does not mean
it is not. For instance the class may query the database. So then it would
be dependant on the database, type of database, or whatever.

Your variables should not be the same name as your classes.
e.g.
$myCar = new Car()
$blueCar = new Car()
$redCar = new Car()

you should always have "new" and call the constructor (e.g. Car() ) when
creating a new instance or object.

[PHP] Re: javascript ?

[dc]

You will need to use DHTML with javascript. Try www.docjavascript.com and
search for dhtml columns. I'm sure he has something about turning on and off
the display of items.

The basic idea is you will change the display properties from none to block
and vice-versa.

example

function show() {

rElement = document.getElementByID("ToGoDiv");
rElement.setAttribute("display","block");

}

function show() {

rElement = document.getElementByID("ToGoDiv");
rElement.setAttribute("display","none");

}

[PHP] extending built in classes?

[dc]

Hi -
(B
(BI am trying to extend a built in class, but cannot seem to get my
(Bsubclass methods called.
(B
(Bclass movObj extends SWFMovie {
(B function init() {
(Becho("init");
(B }
(B}
(B
(B$m = new movObj();
(B$m->init();
(B
(BGives:::
(BFatal error: Call to undefined method SWFMovie::init() ...
(B
(BThis method call i would have hoped would pass up to the baseclass.
(B
(BBut if I add a constructor to my own subclass, the init method can be
(Bcalled. BUT i can now not call any of the SWFMovie methods. Like, it
(Bis not really extending the built in class, or there is no hierarchy.
(B
(BI messed with various versiosn of trying to call the super myself:
(B
(Bparent::method
(B$this->parent->method()
(B
(Bwithout much success.
(B
(BIs this a limitation of phps classes? We cannot subclass built in types
(B(perhaps they were built/not compatible with php5 object model)?

[PHP] passthru in IE: fullscreen display of SWF

hi list-
