[PHP] How do I use a Javascript variable in PHP?
Hi all, I hope this is the right place to pose my question, so here goes: - I have a javascript function called calcMonth() and given a number it will return a date i.e. month = calcMonth( 57 ) - month will be 'sept 2002' The problem I`m having is at the beginning of my PHP file I`m calling this calcMonth() then doing a load of php stuff and then trying to use the javascript month variable, but to no avail: - print ""; The result is, the browser displays the words 'javascript:month;' - not a month number I`ve looked everywhere for an answer from persistent javascript data to using framesets to hold the variable but to no avail. I know its quite a bit of javascript, but its mixed in with PHP too so I thought it`d be the right place. Anyways, I hope someone can provide the answer to my problem.

[PHP] How do i assign Integers only and not real numbers?
Hi all, I have a line of code that assigns a new year number: - $years = $years + ( $themonth / 12 ); but sometimes $years == 1998.08 or $year == 2002.75 etc... I cant find anything like a round() or floor() function in PHP so that year would be 1998 or 2002 only. Does anyone know what function would do this? Sorry if I`m wasting your time if its a really obvious one! thanks in advance, Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Randomizing 3 different numbers.
Just to give you something to chew on, try the code below.

[PHP] Best way to split a string of numbers into segments.
Hi.
Is there an easy, non expensive way to do the perl-equivalent of:
$date=20031202;
($year, $month, $day) = ($date =~ /(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/;
I looked through the preg_* functions online, but couldn't see anything
to help me. Am I stuck with substr() :P ?
Thanks.

Re: [PHP] Best way to split a string of numbers into segments.
I agree that preg_match generates an array, but I cannot assign to it
directly,
and in your example I have 4 elements in the array, not three.
Array
(
[0] => 20031202
[1] => 2003
[2] => 12
[3] => 02
)
I suppose something like
preg_match("/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/", $mydate, list($y,$m$d));
Is vaguely what I am gunning for.
And substr()...
$date = 20031202;
$year = substr($date,0,4);
$month = substr($date,3,2);
$day = substr($date,5,2);
That seems like a lot of lines of code, and I am believe that substr()
is expensive.
Maybe I have been doing too much perl, as it seems such a neat solution
to me :P
preg_match should do it...
$mydate = "20031202";
$date = array();
preg_match("/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/", $mydate, $date);
print_r($date);
substr would be much quicker though

list() springs to mind
list ($a, $b, $c) = preg_split (/* mumble mumble */);
Hi David.
Yes, list() was, initially, my starting point. But preg_split() will not
allow me split with the
full /(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/ syntax (and assign the temp vars to thos in
list().
Unless I missed something?
$date=20031202;
list ($a, $b, $c) = preg_split (/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/);

[PHP] Non American strtotime
Is there a way I can force PHP's time functions not to read date strings
in the American MM-DD- format?
I am using strtotime and strftime and date at various points (mainlty to
avoid some niggly 0/NULL problems between PHP and mySQL
and datefields).
My date calculations (which are done in mySQL) are coming out with
screwy results: adding 6 months the 3rd July becomes 7th September.
("03/07/2004" reads as 7th March, add six months for 7th September
which is then displayed as "07/09/2003").
Is there a way I can have strtotime read "10-01-2004" (and all other such
date connotations) as the 10th Jan and not 1st Oct?
Thanks.

[*snip*] Is there a way I can have strtotime read "10-01-2004" (and all other such date connotations) as the 10th Jan and not 1st Oct? No. strtotime() only recognises the formats mm/dd/, -mm-dd and mmdd for numeric months; if you use a textual month, you can pretty much put the day, month and year in any order. Your best bet is to rejig the date into one of the formats recognised before passing it to strtotime -- although, once you've split it into its constituent parts, you might just as well use mktime() to get your timestamp. And if you just want to insert into mySQL, why not use the mySQL date format specifiers to specify the format of your incoming dates? (Someone else can expound better on this, as I don't use mySQL.) This will really stump me, and leads me to the conclusion that the only PHP solution is to write my own strtotime function, which is unlikely to be an acceptable answer. The end user gets to chose their date format, and so if I cannot reverse their arbitrary date format into a timestamp then I have no chance of ensuring that dates are correct. This seems like a really fundamentally bad thing about PHP :( I don't suppose there are any PHP classes to hand that connect to mySQL and do all this?

[PHP] GD fonts and ImageLoadFont
Hello, I've been trying to figure out how to properly convert a bdf font into a GD font for use with ImageLoadFont. The conversion goes without a problem, and I can load and use the font, but for some reason, all the characters look as though they have a space inserted between them. So, instead of the number "20", I get something that looks like "2 0". Instead of "Hello", I get something that looks like "H e l l o". I've seen suggestions to use the php commands that use truetype instead of GD fonts, but we're working with a hosting company who does not have freetype installed (much less current versions of gdlib and php). Is there something I can do to get the GD fonts to space properly? Thanks, Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I was just looking at that. Someone told me to use GET instead of POST.
Since JS is validating is it as easy replacing GET with POST ? Nothing else
needed? Is it better to remove the JS and just code using PHP as you showed
before?
if (empty($_POST['email']) ||
empty($_POST['realname']) ||
empty($_POST['feedback']))

I am no Coder and don't have a lot of time to devote to these things, to
busy running a business, but I do enjoy learning how things work which is
why I have taken this on. Website is just for informational display as they
don't produce much in the way of mortgage originations. I was hoping to get
something along the lines of the actually coding needed to pull this off. I
have spent every available moment over the last three months on this
website (which is my first) with nothing more than an online beginners
course in CS3 & CSS. I have appreciated everyones feedbackl. If anyone has
coding I can cut and paste with just a few adjustments on my end that would
be great.

[PHP] XSLTProcessor issue
I have located what appears to me to be bug in the XSLTProcessor in
PHP5.2.13 but want to insure that I am not overlooking something before
reporting it. Any advice will be appreciated.
The issue is apparent discrepancies in output sort order in an XSLTProcessor
generated list. Following is a detailed description.
Scenario: Disk resident xml file with a top level "Places" element and a
list of subordinate "Place" elements. Each "Place" element has a "fullName"
attribute with self explanatory value. Place heirarchy is indicated by comma
separated fields in the attribute value, e.g. Accomac Co., Virginia, USA.
Also, a disk resident xsl file whose purpose is to transform the xml file
into a html file with the "Place" element collection sorted and rewritten as
a list of full place names. When the xsl translation is invoked by assigning
the xsl to the xml file and accessing the xml file in IE8, the displayed
output appears exactly as expected, e.g.
Accomack Co., VA, USA
Adams Co., PA, USA
Ahoskie Twp., Hertford Co., NC, USA
Ahoskie, Hertford Co., NC, USA
AK, USA
AL, USA
Alachua Co., FL, USA
Alamance Co., NC, USA
Alameda Co., CA, USA
Alameda, Alameda Co., CA, USA
However, when invoked via the following php script, using PHP5.2.13 -
$xml = new DOMDocument();
$xml->load("F:\Places.xml");
$xsl = new DOMDocument();
$xsl->load("F:\Places.xsl");
$xslt = new XSLTProcessor();
$xslt->importStylesheet($xsl);
echo $xslt1->transformToXML($xml);
some sort order discrepancies appear in the output, e.g.
AK, USA
AL, USA
Accomack Co., VA, USA
Adams Co., PA, USA
Ahoskie Twp., Hertford Co., NC, USA
Ahoskie, Hertford Co., NC, USA
Alachua Co., FL, USA
Alamance Co., NC, USA
Alameda Co., CA, USA
Alameda, Alameda Co., CA, USA
Note that the state records, which have upper case second character,
incorrectly appear ahead of other places. This behavior appears even if the
"case-order='lower-first'" attribute is included in the element
in the xsl stylesheet.
Question: Is this a bug or am I overlooking something?

Re: AW: [PHP] export mysql to csv prob
If your mysql server has access (or can have access) to the directory
where you want to dump the file, you can just use the "SELECT INTO
OUTFILE FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','..." syntax as your query, which is very
fast.

Betreff: [PHP] export mysql to csv prob
hi
i have a script that exports the result of a mysql query to a csv file
suitable for downloading
the code looks like
$result = mysql_query("select * from user,mjp1,mjp2,mjp3,mjp4");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$csv_output .= "$row[userid] $row[firstname] $row[lastname]\n" }
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel");
header("Content-disposition: csv" . date("Y-m-d") . ".xls"); print
$csv_output;
this works fine, except that when i expand the line $csv_output
.="$row[userid] $row[firstname] $row[lastname] $row[anotherfield]
$row[anotherfield] ...\n"} -to include an increasing number of fields, it
tends to bog down the speed at which the $csv_output file can be printed.
when i have this line output 30+ fields for each row, wait time for output
file generation is almost 4-5 minutes.
is this the most efficient way to do this? i'd like to be able to generate
the file as quickly as possible.
thanks

[PHP] Implementing compulsory fields in a mySQL driven, SMARTY templated site?
Hello. As per the subject: I am using PHP, mySQL and Smarty for a web site with lots of forms everywhere. The site is split into display, content and logic. And I want to introduce the concept of mandatory fields. Manually editing all the content files to mark the mandatory fields and matching them 'manually' in the logic scripts is one solution, but I am racking my brains to move more towards a way of a full management suite - being able to set the mandatory fields on a page on the site in the site itself. I appreciate that the first solution is much more realistic than the latter, but a sensible, middle- ground solution is still evading me. Has anyone got any ideas, suggestion, solutions or handy links to forums that have tackled this problem?

Hi. I'm trying to upgrade a server (up2date RedHat9) - which is running Apache 2 (default!) and PHP 4.2.2 - to PHP 4.3.6. It is the SAPI version (running as an Apache module). I have downloaded the tar.gz, exploded that and run ./configure --disable-cgi --with-apxs2=/var/share/Apache/apxs.pl However it errors with apxs:Error: /home/httpd-win32-msi/apache-1.3.20/httpd not found or not executable So it seems I have completely the wrong version! I don't seem to be able to find apxs.pl for Apache 2 on linux (RH9). Could anyone point me in the right direction and possibly warn of me of the upcoming problems I am bound to face? :) Thanks.

[PHP] Using linkDisplayFields of FormBuilder
Hello all, I've successfully generated my DataObjects for my database and have a set of objects that extend these generated classes so that my logic is separate from the generated code (so that any slight schema changes won't overwrite my code). My question concerns using FormBuilder to change the displayfield for a linked dataobject. For example, I have table1 and table2. table1 is extended by table1extended class. I create a do from this extended class and pass that to formbuilder. table1 has a link to table2, but I'd like to make table2 use a different field when being displayed by the form generated for table1 *without having to place the fb_linkDisplayField variable into the generated do for table2*. I'd prefer to keep that out of the do. Putting it in the extendedtable2 class is alright, but how do I make formbuilder see that class instead of the base do that is generated? Even better, I'd like to be able to effect the way table2 is displayed in a form(s) generated from table1 from the page that is creating that form. (Page one with a form displays table2's name field, while page two with a form displays one of table2's other fields). This may fall more into how to structure my application. I want to separate the generated do code from my 'business logic' and separate the form/display details from the business logic. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Using linkDisplayFields of FormBuilder
I've mailed this list per the instructions on the pear.php.net site. I first thought to email the lead maintainer (Justin Patrin) for the DB_DataObject_FormBuilder package (http://pear.php.net/package/DB_DataObject_FormBuilder) but the email form page gave these instructions: "Do not send email to this developer if you are in need of support for any of his/her package(s), instead we recommend emailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] where you are more likely to get answer. You can subscribe to the pear-general mailinglist from the Support - Mailinglist page." That's what I've done. Also, searching the list archive turned up some questions from users and answers from the package's lead maintainer (http://beeblex.com/lists/index.php/php.pear.general/20823?s=formbuilder+%3Aphp.pear.general), so I thought this was appropriate, on top of respecting the explicit instructions of the site, Justin Patrin's inbox and the idea that submitting to the mailinglist will allow others to see questions/solutions and contribute/benefit. Other than contacting the developer directly (which, again, seems to be discouraged), and search engines, (google didn't turn up anything specific to this concern), does anyone have other specific resources regarding FormBuilder?

smaller files is no problem. The error occoured, if the uploaded File is bigger than the installed main memory. Ok, i know that http ist not designed for big uploads. But on a big website with upload enabled and 30 users upload simultan a 20 MB File, they lost the upload while php hold all in memory/Cache and swap is not used. I don't understand why php write the upload chunck for chunck (i can look this) in upload temp file AND holds the upload in main memory.

Re: [PHP] php File upload
With what linux BS have you tested? No, it isn't the apaches job/problem. I do nothing with the file. Looking for $_FILES Varables and then move_uploaded_file. But i said it before, the problem is not at this point. If i upload the file and watch memory with vmstat, free is going 0, cache is going to top and if free is 0 => temp file was deleted and script witout an error comes back. At the crash point, the File is not complete uploaded, so my $_FILES have no entry about the file specs. Im hanging some days with many tests on differnet machines (alls suse) on this Problem and can't solve it :-( "Per Jessen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tom wrote: > hmm, memory buying is okay, not the final solution.

Once the file is uploaded, PHP is invoked to process it. You do your move_uploaded_file() etc. What do you do to the uploaded file? /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

No, high utilization of file system cache will not cause any swapping - file system caching uses whatever is spare. If there's nothing, no caching. AFAIU. I can confirm what you're seeing about the cache being used up - I saw that too. My cache-number only went to about 485000, and free only down to 6000-7000. My webserver also has 1Gb RAM, but it does a few more things. Does your free memory actually go as low as 0? I don't think this is about the file system cache - I know you said no limits, but what do you have for post_max_size and upload_max_size ? I'm using 1200M for both for this test. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: php File upload
Problem solved (at one machine)! I can upload a ~ 2 GB File now on a machine with 1 GB Main Memory! No Problem, swap is used but no break now. The answer is, i think, the dramatical overhead for http upload, simply my post_max_size and upload_max_size are to small. If i will upload 1 GB it must minimum 1.5 GB (better more) on this limit variables. Im very glad to fix this problem, but the next one is here: Other machine (but 2 GB Ram), same suse version, same (working now) php.ini with limits to 5000M now and i can't upload a File greater than 900MB. A file under 900MB i see the tmp file growing. A File with +1 GB no temp file seeing at all and break after a view minutes. It's horrible with no error codes and wasting pure of time :-( Now i begin at bottom on this machine. Thanx for alle, who look for this problem.

You could use preg_replace( '/&(?!amp;)/', '&', $string);

[PHP] array walk and class member functions
Hi
I'm batting my head against a wall on this one...
I have a class that has a constructor which sets some initial
conditions, and then a public function that does some work. I want to be
able to call this function from an external array_walk call, but when I
try and reference it as $myClass->myFunction in the array_walk call, I
get an error back saying that this is an invalid function.
eg)
$myArray = array("item1"=>"firstItem", "item2"=>"secondItem");
$myClass = new aClass;
array_walk($myArray,'$myClass->aMemberFunction');
?>
As a workaround, I redifined the class so that there was a public
function which made the array_walk call with the worker function defined
internally as follows, but this throws another issue in that if I create
multiple instances of the class then I get an error to say that the
internal function is already defined ...
*Fatal error*: Cannot redeclare aFunction() (previously declared in
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/includes/functions.php:23) in

{

public function aPublicFunction($anArray)
{

function aFunction($value, $key)
{
global $aReturnString;
$aReturnString = $aReturnString.$value;
}
array_walk($anArray,'aFunction');
return $aReturnString;
}
}
Can anyone help me to get either solution to a working state?

Re: [PHP] array walk and class member functions
Thanks very much for the help - both methods work fine. I'd had a look
at the array_walk manual, but didn't realise that the second param would
accept an array - that's really cool!
I don't like the function_exists method much, as I frequently overload
class members. Not needed now as I have the worker defined as a private
function and can access it from the public one as
array_walk($anArray,array($this,'aFunction');
Thanks

wrap the function def. like so:
if (!function_exists('aFunction')) {
function aFunction($value, $key)
{
global $aReturnString;
$aReturnString = $aReturnString.$value;
}
}
OR define the function outside of the class e.g.
function aFunction($value, $key)
{
global $aReturnString;
$aReturnString = $aReturnString.$value;
}
BTW: using a global in the way you do in this function is a bad idea.
array_walk() is defined as follows:
bool array_walk ( array &array, callback funcname [, mixed userdata])

Re: [PHP] Re: php style guides
Something I've laboured over for years, in various languages (same issue in perl, ASP, JSP...). My personal preference depends on how much of what is being dumped. If it's a really simple page, then do it in line, I tend to indent it as a seperate tree to the php code (ie there are two staggers). However if it's a longer page or includes loads of javascript or dynamically built tables etc, then I tend to keep the html in another file wrapped up as php functions with a UI_ prefix. This does make it a bit slower (calling loads of functions), but the maintenance is loads easier and it leaves the main code tree legible! All down to personal preference though. The only hard and fast rule is to keep it consistent and comment well so that when you pick it up again a few months down the line you can still maintain it! eg Tom But what I'm really wanting to get everyones thoughts about is in regard to combining PHP with HTML.

[PHP] mysql improved extensions affected_rows
I've just started playing with the php5 improved mysqli extensions.
I have the following code:-
$updateQuery = "UPDATE client SET status = 'INACTIVE' WHERE clientName =
'Tom'";
if ($mysqli->query($updateQuery))
{
$updateCount = $mysqli->affected_rows;
echo "updateCount = $updateCount";
}
else
{
excpetionHandler("updateFailed: ".$updateQuery);
}
?>
This returns "updateCount = 1"
However, when I check the underlying table, there are actually 4 rows
updated (and yes, before anyone asks, I have repeated this several
times, correctly resetting the data before each run)
Is this a known bug, or am I doing something stupid?

How many rows actually had 'Tom' for their clientName?...
I mean, is the '1' wrong because it should be 4, or is it changing records
it shouldn't?
It correctly updates 4 rows, but returns 1 as the count.
I think that this may actually be a mysql issue - I've put the same
php/apache configs onto another similar box, the only difference being
that the second box is mysql 5.0.1, whereas the problem is reported
against 5.0.0 (both alpha's!). The correct value is returned from the

PST = UTC - 8, therefore if you ask for strtotime in PST it will give
you now + 8. This is standard in most languages, you are just reading
the functionality back to front.
ie when you say strtotome('now PST'), what you are asking for is the
current local time (UTC in your instance) given an input date in PST
The time zone correction is applied in the wrong direction. Does it in
both current PHP 4 and 5.
Named time zones like these are supposedly deprecated, but the

PST = UTC - 8, therefore if you ask for strtotime in PST it will give

ie when you say strtotome('now PST'), what you are asking for is the
current local time (UTC in your instance) given an input date in PST
OK, I see some logic in that - now how to work around it?
try
print date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('now') -0800)."\n";
sorry, wrong language, you need
echo "full date PST is ", date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('now -8
hours')), "";
If you define the constants in another file, then you can use them wherever
eg $PST = -8;
...
$dateString = 'now '.$PST.' hours';
echo "full date PST is ", date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime($dateString)),
"";
Tom
That definitely won't work; -0800 will be interpreted as an octal
value, but it's not a legal value. If it was interpreted as a decimal
value, it would subtract 800 minutes, which is no use to anyone.
Numeric offsets are supposed to work inside the strtotime string
param, according to the docs.
Much of the point of using zone names rather than fixed numeric
offsets is that it allows for correct daylight savings calculations
(assuming that locale data is correct on the server).
Let me rephrase the question - how can I get the current time in a
named time zone using strtotime and without using a numeric offset?

Re: [PHP] PHP Cache
Squid any good to you? You can configure it to cache based on page name, GET and POST params (personally don't like to use POST params for static or semi static content, but that's a personal preference, not a hard and fast rule), farside domains You set it up above your php servers so it doesn't care what language you are using to provide the content.

Hey Andrew...
IN MY OPINION... forget the cookies... only use php sessions... but
like I said IMO you can never rely on the end user having them
cookies enabled... same with things like javascript...
let me outline some steps for you... everyone else... feel free to
state pros and cons to theses.. cause i always make mistakes, or
forget things :o)
1. get the user's access info... ie username & password
2. look for the user in the database that stores the access infro
3. if access is granted, I usually set 2 session variables
a. $_SESSION['auth'] = TRUE // They are authorized
b. $_SESSION['user_id'] = {who} // Who is it
a. $_SESSION['user_level'] = {level} // What level access do
they have (optional)
4. at the beginning of each restricted access page, verify that they
are authorized to access that page... if they are not redirect them to
a access denied page.
that should get you started... maybe the second step would be to make
this stuff into functions... ... also, IMO.. it's a good idea to make
a logout script that will distroy that user's active session...
my turn for an IMO :) - my preference is to have a check on the function
that writes the $_SESSION vars or the cookie (I generally use encrypted
cookies which are in turn restricted to certain areas of the site). This
check is on the referer - if it's not from a foreign URL, then write
them new as if the user is non auth. This stops people on public
machines from hitting a back button and being authenticated as the
previous user.

sure what your PHP experience is... but hopefully the above steps will

I use the pear auth package and like it alot. I know I did some

All you do is include auth.php on all pages you want to protect and it

What am I doing wrong? Thank you very much.
What you are doing wrong is trying to use mod_rewrite, the nightmare
extension from hell!
Seriously though, it is your rewrite rule that is wrong, you have
defined a recursion in there for any filename that do not already end
'.php' or have no .
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.php => add '.php' to the end of any filename that has a
'.' in it somewhere (remember that you are in unix world, so the . does not
signify a file extension in the same way as a domestos environment, it is just
part of the filename).
eg1) blah => blah (no change as it doesn't match the regex)
eg2) favicon.ico => favicon.ico.php
when the rule next runs, it finds that favicon.ico.php does not match the
exception of .php (the .ico gives the first match), so adds .php again, and
again, and again, and again.

Re: [PHP] check server status...please help
Sarcasm was also my first thought on this one, then I thought I'd tell the world how I handle it ! For one of my sites there are two solutions implemented to two situations (that's two solutions in total, not four :)). 1) User is already in site, and makes another request. Load up a very small js with the site. When the request times out, this script either pops an error message or redirects the requests to the failover. 2) User is trying to get to the site for the first time. The domain is actually pointed to a GSLOB (load balancer). This continually polls both primary and secondary (and tertiary...) sites and directs traffic to whichever has the lowest load, or to whichever site the rules are set to. This is of course a more expensive solution that may not be at all applicable in your instance (expense is the purchase and hosting of the load balancer hardware). Tom Jay Blanchard wrote: [snip] I want to write a script that will check if the server is down if it is I want to redirect the user to another site, the backup server.

Kind regards, [/snip] So I'm on this server at this URL right? And the HTTP server is down, right? The script would have to be aware of an HTTP request, right? Let us say I am on http://foo.com and I click a link or enter an address for http://bar.com . If the server is down that is hosting http://bar.com well, I think you see where I am going. Now, you could requests to port 80 maybe. And PHP CLI could be set in a loop to handle the request, but this may be a really bad plan. You would probably want some sort of port sniffer to monitor the port for activity. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Ben Edwards wrote: Been meaning to investigate persistent database connections for a while. Coming from a rdbms background (oracle with a bit of whatcom sqlanywhare) I have always felt that the overhead of opening a connection at the beginning of each page was a little resource intensive. MySQL is not remotely the same beast as oracle - take pure session create times. I have a machine that runs both. Creating an oracle session with sqlplus command line takes in the region of 2 seconds (get around this for web apps by connection pooling). Creating a mysql connection (c client) takes in the region of 5 mS. You also need to consider the memory / processor implications of caching connections (or keeping persistent connections) from your web server. Anyway, I found mysql_pconnect and this sounds like just the ticket. Seems that I can just change my connect method from mysql_connect to mysql_pconnect and it will just work. I do have a couple of questions. Firstly what is the story with mysql_close. There is no mysql_pclose. I guess you don't need to close the connection at the end of each page but what if you do. Is mysql_close ignored if the connection was made with mysql_pconnect or douse it close the connection and next time mysql_pconnect is run it reconnects causing no benefit over mysql_pconnect. also what is the timeout likely to be? My other question is what happens if lots of people connect using the same user/password. I tend to do my own user management so everybody douse. Is doing my own user management really dodge, if we were talking about oracle I would probably say it is.

[PHP] file upload error
Hi
I have a very simple file upload form and script to handle it (copied
verbatim from the php manual, except for the file target location and

However, it always fails, with an error code in the _FILE array or 6.

Thanks for the replies. My manual was out of date, not that it would have made any difference to this anyway as . upload_tmp_dir variable was correctly set in the php.ini file, and I'd restarted the web server several times. It seems however that the file is getting cached somehow, and is not re-read until I restart the entire box. Anyone out there know why this may be, or a slightly better way of getting around it than rebooting?

Re: [PHP] How to get new row on top?
The approach I've used is four steps:
(1) read the current file into a variable (which preserves it)
(2) open the 'old' file for writing "w" (which clears it also)
(3) write the "new stuf" to the file first
(4) lastly write the "old stuff" to the file
Here's a code sample that I just tested...
$new_line=" $LABEL\n";
$filecontents = join ('', file('./classified.html'));
$fp=fopen("./classified.html","w");
fwrite($fp,$new_line);
fwrite($fp,$filecontents);
fclose($fp);
Hope that helps, but YMMV.

Re: [PHP] Re: Php search results]
I wrote this function to fetch a news item off another web page but with
a little modification it should work for you. To use it you needed to
identify a set of of strings in the source to use as anchors ($start,
$end) and then it pulls that section and crops off the anchor text so
you are left with just what you wanted.
function get_item($url, $start, $end) {
global $item;
if(!($fp=fopen($url,"r"))) {
echo $url." is not accessable";
exit;
}
while(!feof($fp)) {
$item.=fgets($fp,255);

$end_position=strpos($item, $end);
$length=$end_position-$start_position;
$item=substr($item, $start_position, $length);
}
echo $item;
?>
Soemthing like this might work for you:
$results=search results;
$keyword=search string;
$startposition=strpos($results, $keyword)-200;
$endposition=strpos($results, $keyword)+200;

Re: [PHP] grabbing data from a site
Try this function, Ijust wrote it for the same purpose. You just need a
unique string in front of the stuff you want, and one after it. You
can usually get a string of code on either end that will do this. The
function will open the URL, find the anchor strings you told it, then
strip them away leaving only the text/code that was in between them
function get_item($url, $start, $end) {
global $item;
if(!($fp=fopen($url,"r"))) {
echo $url." is not accessable";
exit;

Re: [PHP] php bugs (Chinese word display problem)-help
I am not positive of the problem as I can not see your code, but if you want to display the words that end in '5C' the you can do them like so: \(escape character) like this: \(95 5C 5C) If you could sttach some code we might have a better idea. -tom culpepper [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, everyone: I am a Chinese, I am a programmer.

The browser will send the old cookie and as the name is probably the same as the
the old session it will get used again, or at least I think that is what is
happening :)
This should not be a problem as the data associated with the old session is
gone.
If you close the browser and start a fresh one you will get a new session id.
