[PHP] intercepting URLs in a "control-system"

Please forgive any obvious ignorances on my part, I am just learning PHP... Having read quite a bit on-line, I am interested in trying to "trap" URLs sent to my site so I can process the request and respond without neccessarily having a "real" page to serve. If this makes any sense, how do I do it

[PHP]

Hi all, can I put a function_name() in the place holder? I know I can use a file name, but it would be much better (for me) if I could use a function name. Thanks in advance Al -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] retrieving ENUM description from MySQL

Hi all, This is a bit wierd so don't flame please. Imagine a database table, field defined as ENUM with a list of allowed types such as "Mr", "Mrs", "Miss", "Dr", "Prof", etc - you get the idea. I've read the MySQL manual and by using SHOW COLUMNS FROM "table_name" LIKE "enum_column_name"; I c

[PHP] Removing Items from an Array

Hi all, I'm really struggling here! I have a large, multi-dimensional array that I want to "clean-up" a bit before committing to a database. I want to remove quite a bit of the array but using the KEYs not the values. I know the keys I want to keep and I know the keys I want to get rid of. I want

Thanks for the replies gents. I have cludged together something from your solutions but it isn't yet working. I've been staring at multi-dim arrays all day and am getting tired, so I'll carry on tomorrow. Thanks again, Alan > -Original Message- > From: Jochem Maas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTEC

[PHP] RE: Removing Items from an Array

Hi TG and others, I think I must be missing something here. Your example doesn't seem to traverse "down" into a multidim array. Also, it appears as though your script assumes that the structure of the array is known. It isn't and it is retrieved from "far away" and I have no control over it's s

[PHP] Recommended Reading?

Hi all, Forgive this long diatribe, a bit off-topic I know, but it might stimulate a good discussion... I have built a few small apps in PHP before and, whilst they work, I can't but help feeling that I go about the whole thing the WRONG way... I am not a professional software person (far from i

[PHP] Abstract Classes?

Hi All, I have started reading a couple of books about PHP 5 and whilst most of it is comprehensible even to me :-), I fail to understand WHY there is such a thing as an abstract class or method? I think I understand what it is: A class that can't itself be instantiated, only inherited from, or a
