[PHP] Is there a bug in fopen() and fsockopen()?

2003-01-29 Thread zlu tarch
Hi,

I think fopen() and fsockopen() have a bug. For
example, while I had no problem connecting to
"http://www2.barchart.com"; using a browser, it was not
possible to open a socket connection uisng either
fopen() or fsockopen() (i.e., none could initilize the
socket).

I was wondering if anyone else had similar problems.
Please let me know if there is a bug, or I was doing
something wrong.

Thanks,

Zlutarch

P.S., both fopen() and fsockopen() can be used to
connect to "www.barchart.com", but NOT
"www2.barchart.com". Isn't this weird?

Re: [PHP] Is there a bug in fopen() - solved, maybe

2003-01-29 Thread zlu tarch
I was not able to either telnet (via port 80), or
connect using fopen() to www2.barchart.com. 

But it seems that it is fine now. Perhaps it was a
temp problem on the site's server, but still, I had no
problems connecting to the site via a browser while
fopen and telnet were not working.

It would be interesting to see if anyone else
experienced similar problems.

[PHP] PHP PDF parser and FFDB-php SQL wrapper

2003-02-02 Thread zlu tarch
Hi All,

I need to extract text ata from PDF files. Does anyone
know if there is a PHP PDF parser?

Also, does anyone know if there is a sql wrapper for
the ffdb-php project
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdb-php/)? 

John created this wonderful FFDB in PHP, and I was
wondering if there are plans to include his FFDB in
the next PHP release. I mean, has there been any
discussion about adding FFDB as the default database
for those who don't have access to a real SQL
database. I think adding FFDB support would enhance
PHP's popularity.
