[PHP] Auto Include a Function

Hi, This may exist, but I haven't been able to find it, and I think it would be REALLY helpful and convenient. The idea is this: When you write a script and call a function: PHP would automatically look for a file named "previously_uncalled_function" in your /include/functions/ directory. Th

Fw: [PHP] unlink ($files);

Hi, You can use the backtick operator to delete whatever you have permissions to delete: $directory = "path/*.*"; `rm -rf $directory`; They aren't quotes, they are backticks (to the left of the 1 key on most keyboards). It is very useful for any command line stuff you have permissions to do. B

[PHP] restore_error_handler() to default error handler

Hi, I was playing around with error handlers, and tried this: Which worked just fine. A little too good, in fact. I got over 1,200 emails in a matter of minutes (high traffic site). I was finally able to get it to stop by re-declaring the function without the mail() call, but how do I restor

RE: [PHP] Re: get the $email string

Hi, If you have a URL like: http://www.whatever.com/page.php?[EMAIL PROTECTED] Then in your script $email will already be set to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". This depends on register_globals being on, if I remember correctly, and you'll want to be aware of the order for variable assignment (for POST, GE

[PHP] session_register() Killing MySQL Connection

RE: [PHP] Returning a value from a recursive function

I think it will work if you return true, and just modify the global variable (not try to output it). Then output it (or capture it to begin with ($total_count = OneHundred();) after the function is called. You could also pass the variable, rather than making it global (OneHundred("0") initially,

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP site on CD-ROM

Just create it online in such a way that you can spider your whole site and burn it to CD. Granted you will lose the searchability of the DB, but the contents would all be there, and could easily be indexed so that you could still find what you are looking for. Create one page that has a link to
