Does anyone have a piece of code that emulates a Perl 'Chomp' function? I need one.
Thanks in advance!!

I looked at the documentation on rtrim. It trims ALL whitespace characters
from the end, not just the '\n'. I need only the '\n' trimmed.

Look again, but check out the second argument:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', true);
$foo = "bar \n";
$bar = rtrim($foo);
$baz = rtrim($foo, "\n");
echo "\$foo == '$foo'; \$bar == '$bar'; \$baz == '$baz'\n";
?>

No, chop() is an alias for rtrim(), and is identical in every way
(save for its name, of course...)

hmm name the text fields the field of the database then put a [] in front of
them to make them an array then
then try maybe
foreach ($_POST['id'] as $key=>$value) {
//sql statement
update table set us=$_POST['us'][$key] where id=$_POST['id'][$key];

I have a file, current.txt, that at the start has only the digit 1 in it. Here is my
code:
$current = readfile('setupData/current.txt');
foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $index => $value) {
$index = $HTTP_POST_VARS['$index'];
}
$info = fopen("postInfo/{$current}-{$dateFile}.txt", 'w');
fwrite($info, "$author\n$email\n$dateActual");
fclose($info);
$entry = fopen("postEntries/{$current}-{$dateFile}.txt", 'w');
fwrite($entry, $body);
fclose($entry);
$currPost = fopen('setupData/current.txt', 'w');
fwrite($currPost, $current + 1);
echo $current;
fclose($currPost);
Two files are created in seperate folders, each with the same name, the current number
in current.txt, a dash, then a series of numbers and letters that represent the
current date and time exactly. That happens correctly, but then the number inside of
current.txt is supposed to increment. Every pair created should be the next number, a
dash, then the date and time. It will increment once to 2, but all created files are
1- and nothing else happens no matter how much I do it. What went wront?
Thanks,

This will cause $current to contain the number of bytes read from the
file, not the contents of the file.
http://www.php.net/readfile
Instead, use fopen()/fread(); or file()/implode(); or if you have PHP
4.3.x or newer, use file_get_contents().
http://www.php.net/file_get_contents
http://www.php.net/fopen
http://www.php.net/fread
http://www.php.net/file
http://www.php.net/implode

This will do two things you probably don't want: first, it will
repeatedly assign values to $index, overwriting it on each iteration;
and, it will always use the same value to do so, since
$HTTP_POST_VARS['$index'] has the single-quotes, which prevents PHP
from interpreting the contents of $index--so it's literally using the
string value '$index' instead of the value of the $index variable. You
probably want variable variables:
$$index = $HTTP_POST_VARS[$index];
...although even easier would be:
$$index = $value;

I am writing a php event registration system for lanparties and I believe I
have everything written that I need except for a seating selection chart. I
dont want to reinvent the wheel if I dont have to and am curious to know if
something like this has already been written as public source...
If not, I possibly may pay a reasonable fee for one or for someone to write
it for me...Here is what I need and maybe you could provide a direction for
me to do research or some logic as to how it can be done...
As a person goes through the event registration system, they will come to a
page that displays 8 rows of 30 seats (240 seats total)...but in the future
I would like to have admin capability to increase or decrease this amount.
When they get to that page it should display all of the open or available
seats in one color and all of the sold or reserved seats in a different
color. The registrant will then select an open seat they wish to buy or
reserve and then take them to the next step in registration where they
enter their attendee information and pay to attend via paypal or mollyguard.
Then when the next person decides to register, when they get to that page,
one less seat will be available. I would like to have as much control as
possible and I do know a minor bit of php and mysql.
Any help or guidance is appreciated.

Couple of thoughts ...
Each 'event' is unique to time and place.
So you'll need a 'event' table with datetime, interval, name,
description and a place (or 'forum' --see next paragraph).
table event (
id int unsigned auto_inc primary key,
idforum int unsigned,
ebeg datetime not null, // begins
eend datetime not null default '0', // ends
emin int unsignd default 0, // how long in minutes
name varchar(64),
descript text,
index idx_b (ebeg), // might be handy ...
index idx_f (idforum)
)
Each place is (usually) limited to hosting one 'event' at any interval.
But some places can have several events at the same time. Consider a major
hotel and all the conference rooms --or a sports stadium with all the
owner, boxholder's, home-team, & visting-team parties ...
So 'place' is a poor term. I'll suggest using 'forum' as the locale to be
to attend a particular event.
Also you'll have to think about assigned seating and/or general admission
seating.
Example:
At the downtown Hilton, the local Lions club might reserve the "Omega" room
w/ 5 seats per 4 tables, general admission.
But a dinner with President Bush in the "Omega" room is gonna run like 6
seats @ 40 tables. And definitely assigned seating.
Same room name but clearly a different 'forum'.
It's a toss-up if this should be a field in the 'event' or in the
'forum' table. I go with forum.
So there's another table:
table forum (
id int unsigned auto_inc primary,
name varchar(16),
descript text,
ftype enum('A', 'G'), // assigned or general seating
m_block int unsigned not null, // max # of seating blocks
m_seats int unsigned not null, // seats per block
block_type enum('row','table','section') not null default 'row',
// what does m_block encompass?
seat_limit int unsigned not null default 0,
// maximum seats (m_block * m_seats where ftype='A')
unique index (name)
)
Then there is seating.
When each event/forum is scheduled your app adds m_block * m_seats to
a seating table.
For general admission add block=x, seat=1 -> seat_limit.
---
The 'seating' table is where it gets tricky --and where it gets solved.
table seating (
idforum int unsigned not null, // link to forum description.
block int unsigned not null, // a dinner table or stadium row
seat int unsigned not null, // d'oh
guest int unsigned not null default 0, // who has this seat ?
primary key (idforum, block, seat),
INDEX idx_g (guest) // handy stuff.
)
Assigned seating:
As each guest reserves a [optional] seat:
"UPDATE seating SET guest='$idguest'
WHERE idforum='$idforum' AND block='$idblock' [AND seat='$idseat']
AND guest=0"
General admission:
"UPDATE seating SET guest='$idguest'
WHERE idforum='$idforum' AND block='$idblock'
AND guest=0"
</programmer doodle>

Hello all,
I do not know if this is the right place to post a question about this. I am
trying to figure out what all I can do using stream_wrapper_register
functions.
I have looked over
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.stream-wrapper-register.php and I am
trying to write a class that will allow everything that you can do to a
system file to be done with content in a database. I think this is the
proper function to use for that but would like a little input first.
The link above states
stream_wrapper_register() allows you to implement your own protocol handlers
and streams for use with all the other filesystem functions (such as
fopen(), fread() etc.).
My question is will this work all of the PHP functions from
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php:
example:
filesize -- Gets file size
touch -- Sets access and modification time of file
unlink -- Deletes a file
and too many more to list
first few lines of code sample at
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php:
class VariableStream {
var $position;
var $varname;
function stream_open($path, $mode, $options, &$opened_path)
{
$url = parse_url($path);
$this->varname = $url["host"];
$this->position = 0;
return true;
}
If so would they need to be wrote like this?
function stream_filesize($path, $mode, $options, &$opened_path)
{
// put sql here
return true;
}
function stream_touch($path, $mode, $options, &$opened_path)
{
// put sql here
return true;
}
function stream_unlink($path, $mode, $options, &$opened_path)
{
// put sql here
return true;
}
and so forth
Thanks,

Hi all, wish u all a good weekend..
Guys I have a question as the following:
1- In my wwwroot I have two folders : folder1 and folder2 (actually I have
14 folders)
2- In the same two folders there are same PHP files do the same job, as db
jobs with different databases..
3- I log in the users by register a session, lab lab lab ... etc
4- the logging files in the two folders are different by registering a
different session value.
4- I want if any user jumped to the other directory and logged in with the
correct requested password TO HAVE THE FIRST SESSION UNREGISTERED
automatically, so he can't be logged in in both at same time.. and keep only
the new.. and ofcourse have to re logging if he jumped back to the first
one...
(the reason that every folder has different DB connection, and the
interface of the two section are identical.. so I need to split it .to avoid
any problems with many users ....)
5- what I m trying to do is , if there is a possibility to control the
header.. by if { /folder1 go } else { unregister session whatever}
if {/ folder2 .............. } else {.........} etc
6- IS IT A GOOD WAY TO DO IT , OR NOT? of cource I need a security in the
first place..
I HOPE I WAS CLEAR, and thanks for your patient again... :))

You possibly have a select list box named 'title[]' remove the brackets []
and rename the list box 'title'. That should work.

Hey,
How do you save the data from a TEXTAREA of a form into a mysql database so
that when you retrieve the data later you get the same format that the user
entered
EXAMPLE
user enters the following and cliks save
Line 1 testing
Line 2 TEST
Line 4 test
line 5 test
test
testing
result when displaying data
Line 1 testingLine 2 TESTLine 4 testline 5 testtesttesting
How do I get it so the format is the same?
Thanks
