By far, the most popular are the tools offered by
ImageMagick, such as mogrify:

Netpbm is used by Gallery. Works very well.

After doing a google search for the terms mogrify php:
http://www.google.com/search?q=mogrify+php
The first result was this article, it appears to touch
on the subject:
Resizing Images with PHP and Mogrify
http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/michael20020712.php3
I'm sure there are many more examples around, and
including PHP in the search field of google is very
much optional. But, I guess this all depends on your
knowledge of PHP... Maybe thumbnail is another good
search term to throw into the mix.

By no errors, do you mean you have a PHP version greater
than PHP 4.2.0 and checked the ['error'] code, and it
has a value of 0? Are you sure you want the filename
to be $file_name? I doubt you do.

Your new PHP lacks XML support, otherwise this (and all
the other php.net/xml functions) will be defined. Look
at a call to phpinfo(), you should see something like
--disable-xml in the configure line, or maybe it's
shared and not included... Anyway, bottom line is, your
PHP must now lack XML support.
Regards,
Philip

Thank you. I checked my php_info() and sure enough --disable_xml is
present. Are there any Gentoo Users out there having this problem as well?
Any Gentoo Users out there that might be able to help me work out a
solution? I have 'xml' and 'xml2' in my make.conf use flags.

Hi, I just installed PHP 4.3.2 and tried to run php_pdf. I found that I was
able to generate a pdf in memory using pdf_open_file($pdf), but when I tried
to generate a real file using pdf_open_file($pdf,$filename) nothing
happened, no file was generated. What's going on? Just as a sanity check I
did an fopen($filename,"w") and that worked fine. I did replace my existing
php.ini with the new php.ini-recommended, but I don't think I'm missing
anything there.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Using a global like that could be an example of problem code.
Sensitive stuff should be within a well defined routine:
function isadmin() {
global $PHP_AUTH_USER, $PHP_AUTH_PW;
static $admlogin=FALSE, $didit=FALSE;
if ($didit)
return($admlogin);
$didit=TRUE;
if ((strcmp($PHP_AUTH_USER, ADMINNAME) |
strcmp($PHP_AUTH_PW, ADMINPASS)) == 0 )
$admlogin=TRUE;
return($admlogin);
}
...
if (isadmin()) ...
<rant>
register_globals=off won't make good code any better --it's just
a safety net for the sloppy coders.
The real lesson is: Don't be (or hire) a sloppy programmer.
I understand why the PHP team made reg_g=off as the default. I don't
like it, but i understand why.
The main thing I don't like is that it seems to coddle the LCD of
bad code.
A craftsman rarely learns good practice if s/he is insulated from the
results of bad practice.
</rant>
IMHO, of course.

In some sense, register_globals = off makes both bad and
good code better, because it means less pollution. So
many unused variables get defined with register_globals
on and this means wasted memory/resources. Pollution
makes any environment worse! Granted this isn't what you
meant, but still... ;)

Also true.
On namespace pollution --based on some of the replies I've seen on the
list, there's a sizable number of neophyte (and too many veteran) coders
that are starting scripts with:
<?php
extract($_GET); extract($_POST); extract($_COOKIE);
...
And so far, I don't recall anybody mention that you need to
unset($admin, $internal_var, $nukenewyork, ...) afterwards.
So nothing's really changed.
Bad code will mysteriously go tits-up (or worse) and good code will
keep on cranking.
No matter what register_globals= is set to.

Anyone that would suggest using extract() like that would
only do so to quickly make a register_globals dependent
script work (using .htaccess would be preferred there). I
doubt people actually do that for new code, well, at least
anyone with half a brain.

My webhost just upgraded to php 4.3.2, and now I have a problem with
popen. I'm opening an output buffer then piping it through htmltidy to
make nice looking output.
<?php
ob_start();
// Other unimportant coding goes here
$str=addslashes(ob_get_contents());
$fp=popen("echo \"" . $str . "\" | /bin/tidy - config /my/home/htmlrc", "r");
@$newstr=fread($fp, 999999);
ob_end_clean();
header("Last-Modified: " . $gmt_modtime);
header( "Content-length: " . strlen( $newstr ) );
echo stripslashes($newstr);
?>
This code worked perfectly before the upgrade, now "strlen( $newstr )" is
only getting back 4096 bytes. Is anybody else having this issue, and how
can I fix this? I don't see any configuration setting that looks like it
fits to this situation. It is running under redhat with Apache/1.3.27
Thanks, Jeff

PHP 4.3.0-1 has a bug that made your previous code "work",
have a look at the fread() docs for why, here's a quote:
"Note: When reading from network streams or pipes, such
as those returned when reading remote files or from
popen() and proc_open(), reading will stop after a packet
is available. This means that you should collect the data
together in chunks as shown in the example below."
It goes on to show that you must loop threw it to get
fread() to do what you want in the below code. Although,
the example it eludes to is wrong (a correct example will
show when the manual next builds), you get the point... :)

Philip

Wow. 6 minutes for a response. Of course, I thought my error was in the
popen(), not fread(), so I didn't even check there. I've just fixed the
code, and it works! Thanks, Philip.

I am trying to upload a file using php's ftp functions between two RedHat
7.3 systems. I'd like to make sure the destination file has the same
modification date as the source file, so that I can later compare to see if
it has been modified on the remote machine, but not sure how to approach
this. I tried to use the SITE command to pass a touch command, but that
didn't work.
Other than the obvious places, where do I go from here?
thanks in advance,
Warren Vail

eregi("^([0-9.])*$", $string)
will match:
an empty string
a string containing only 0-9 and periods
It is better for you to learn the preg_*() functions instead of the ereg*()
ones.

FYI, that code will also allow a string such as "99.4.3....223...04..."
If that's not desirable, you could look into using the is_float() or
is_numeric() functions, or a regex such as:
if(preg_match('/^[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+$/',$string))
{ echo "good"; }
else
{ echo "bad"; }
That will allow text/numbers with or without a period.

HELP? I AM ABOUT TO PULL MY HAIR OUT?
I have already spent time reading over the online php manual and I still
can't figure a way around this issue. I notice that when I start a session
and I create session variables, those variables are attached to the specific
domain. For example:
both of the urls point to the same place:
http://www.test.com/start.php
http://ww2.test.com/start.php
I have noticed however that if you create a session variable in the
following file http://www.test.com/start.php
and try to access from a file http://www2.test.com/access.php the variable
will not exist.
The reason I am asking all these questions is that in my code I need the
ability to do a re-direct to a secure site such as https://secure.test.com
but still maintain all of the session variables and keep the same session
open.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dale

Session IDs are passed in cookies. Cookies are, by default, set to the
current domain. So a cookie set on 'www.test.com' will not be available
to 'ww2.test.com'.
You can try to adjust the cookie domain property to 'test.com' like
someone else mentioned, or pass the session ID in the URL when linking
to the other domain. This will only work if both domains use the same
directory for storing session files, though.

Hi
I'm writing a wrapper for some mailman archives and i'm trying to put
them message into a variable as in:
$body = <<<EOF
text here.....
EOF;
But I'm getting an error because of some charactors. ^L to be
specific. If the text contains a control char I get:
Code:
<pre>
<?
$test = <<<EOF
line 1
^L
line 2
EOF;
echo $test;
?>
</pre>
Error:
Warning: Unexpected character in input: '' (ASCII=12) state=5 in
test.html on line 6
Is there any way I can stop it complaining about it. Or is there
another way I can put the the text into the string (it's done via a
template file and a string substitution). The contents could be
anything so I thougth heredoc would work..
Thanks in advance.. I'm not on the list so please reply to me directly.
Regards
Simon

I'm sure and I'm sure it works on the Linux box where my pages is placed.
This is not a question of writing a fuctional code, but writing correct
code! In my perspective that means platform independent!
(btw: the problem occure i my update script:
if (date("M",filemtime($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED']))=="Jan") {......}

If you mean to have the user print to a paper printer what he sees in
his web browser then that has nothing to do with PHP.
Printing from a web browser is controlled by the web browser. PHP cannot
affect the way a web browser prints.
Did I understand you question correctly?

I just installed the rpm for mysql 4 on Redhat 7.1.
Now the service is running, but I cannot go to a
command line and type in mysql to get to the mysql
command prompt. Did I install it wrong? Do I need to
add a path like you would in windows (Enviroment
Paths)?
Thanks
Silly

Furthermore this is a PHP list ... for MySQL support you would be much
better off posting to a MySQL list no? ;)
Unless of course there *was* something related to PHP in your question

It looks like my apxr relies on apr-config.
I've extracted an apxs from a previous rpm and it looks like
configure is working now.

Thanks Leif. I hoping to get something for vers of PHP < 4.2. From my
earlier post:
The following never echos STARTING!!!
ob_end_flush();
if(ob_get_contents() == FALSE) {
echo "STARTING!!!";
ob_start();
}
also tried: if(ob_get_contents() === FALSE)
and: if(!ob_get_contents())
and: if(ob_get_contents() == "")
But I do get the following notice at the ob_end_flush(); line which tells me
that output buffering is not on:
Notice: ob_end_flush() [ref.outcontrol]: failed to delete buffer default
output handler.
Thanks!
