It's up to you to manage the "life" of a session. <snip> if($_SESSION['last_seen'] && ($_SESSION['last_seen'] < time() - timeout) { //session is ok proceed } else { //session expired $_SESSION = array();//destroy session //whatever you want to do } </snip> btw! the code above does not take care of the first time a user visits u'r page.

heres the code i made based on what you said: <?php $day=2; $hour=2; $seconds=05;
$theDay=24*60*60; $theHour=60*60; //$theSec=$seconds;
$FinalDay=$day*$theDay; $FinalHour=$hour*theHour;
$offset=$FinalDay + $FinalHour + $seconds; $FinalTime=time() + $offset;
print time(); echo "<br><br>"; print $FinalTime; echo "<br><br>"; $Result=mktime($FinalTime); echo $Result;//gives a warning or error ?>
Its giving me a number based on the above that is correctly higher than time() but how do i enter that into mysql for a comparision?
eg: my table structure in mysql is so: present_day datetime expire_day datetime filename varchar(50)
(my logic) if ($present_day - $expire_day <= 0) {echo "link expired";} //else //give file
Kindly reply, -Ryan

Look at the documentation http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/DATETIME.html I think the field type you need should be TIMESTAMP(14) since you can use some MySQL functions to easily check for expired data. also see the php manual for mktime : http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php As you will notice you didn't exactly used it like you should have, hence the error Hope this helps, Catalin "Ryan A" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Hi, > Thanks for replying. > > Am a bit confused even after your example as to how to enter this into the > datetime field in mysql so that i can compare it to the present datetime > > heres the code i made based on what you said: > <?php > $day=2; > $hour=2; > $seconds=05; > > $theDay=24*60*60; > $theHour=60*60; > //$theSec=$seconds; > > $FinalDay=$day*$theDay; > $FinalHour=$hour*theHour; > > $offset=$FinalDay + $FinalHour + $seconds; > $FinalTime=time() + $offset; > > print time(); echo "<br><br>"; > print $FinalTime; echo "<br><br>"; > $Result=mktime($FinalTime); > echo $Result;//gives a warning or error > ?> > > Its giving me a number based on the above that is correctly higher than > time() but how do i enter that into mysql for a comparision? > > eg: > my table structure in mysql is so: > present_day datetime > expire_day datetime > filename varchar(50) > > (my logic) > if ($present_day - $expire_day <= 0) > {echo "link expired";} > //else > //give file > > Kindly reply, > -Ryan > > > > Hi, > > > > offset = 1day + 1hour + 10 secs = 24 * 60 * 60 + 60 * 60 + 10 > (seconds) > > time() + offset = the time you need > > or > > $now = explode('.', date("d.m.Y.H.i.s", time()); > > $now is array ( 0 => the day, 1 => the month. aso) > > add to the elements of the array the values you need > > then turn it back into a timestamp with mktime() > > > > Cheers, > > Catalin > > > > "Ryan A" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > > news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Hi, > > > I have a datetime field in my table, i want to enter a datetime 1 day,1 > > hour > > > and 10 mins into the future from today/the present, how do i calculate > > that? > > > > > > This is for the expiring links/members part of a script i am trying to > > > create. > > > > > > > > > I have looked around the archive and google but maybe i didnt find the > > > correct thread. > > > Google turned up these revelient results but are not too much help: > > > > > > http://forums.devshed.com/showthread.php?threadid=4238&kw=get+current+date+and+time+of+server > > > > > > useing the date function > > > http://www.phpbuilder.com/mail/php-general/2002062/1026.php (rasmus) > > > > > > now() > > > http://www.phpbuilder.com/mail/php-general/2002062/1033.php (john) > > > > > > This was very helpful but it brings up the other question of is the > local > > > php time on the server the same as the one on mysql?

Make sense? Not really. Forget about the file extension (php, html, etc). Doesn't matter once you're off the server. What is the /content/ of the file you're trying to recover? Sounds like you're screen-scraping HTML. Getting the file should be a one-liner, but depending on what you want to do, parsing it might be more complex. (slashdot's scripts are Perl writing out static HTML every five minutes, anyway. It doesn't have a "backend.php")

--- Begin Message ---Hey there - quick question - until a week ago, the mail() function I am using to email confirmations was working fine, now the following error is showing up in the logs: Aug 31 11:50:26 www2 sendmail[29579]: h7VFoQc7029579: localhost [127.0.0.1] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA This error shows up for each mail going out - no matter where it is going to - and that could be one of 4 addresses (an internal, the customers email, and 2 external addresses including a hotmail account). Is this a php thing that I am missing a setting for the mail() function? Or is this a problem with the local mail server perhaps? The following are the settings (on OS X btw): ini_set(sendmail_path, "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f mail.vtc.com"); $headers = "From: VTC Orders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\r\n"; $subject="Order Confirmation from VTC"; $body="A bunch of things that will have no affect on the the email it's self"; mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]",$subject,$body,$headers); I am not aware of anything that has changed since this worked last (actually about 3 days ago) except that the company has messed with their internal mail server - still - this error is showing for ALL emails going out - not just the ones being delivered internally - and their internal mail server is running on an entirely different server anyhow. So - is there something that I am missing - and if it is not a php error just say so WITHOUT FLAMES and I will check it out somewhere else.

Yea, mabey the sendmail list. I did a quick search on the error (with not much results) but there are some comments that this indicates that your connection is dropping early.

--- Begin Message --- Hi there,
I am having trouble to install imagemagick. It requires to
8) rm ./configure 9) ./buildconf
the proble is, that somehow libtool will not install. It requires automake and I have installed this (see below), but does not change anything.
OUtput: SARATOGA:/home/sw # rpm --install automake-1.4p1-1.src.rpm SARATOGA:/home/sw # rpm --install libtool-1.4.3-6.x86_64.rpm error: failed dependencies: automake >= 1.4p1 is needed by libtool-1.4.3-6 libtool-libs = 1.4.3-6 is needed by libtool-1.4.3-6 SARATOGA:/home/sw #
Has anybody a good idea on how to solve this?
Thanx,
Merlin

If this is the case I would suggest doing a rm -fR imagemagick/ then build php --with-gd Curt -- "I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure."

--- Begin Message --- hmmmm. I see your point.
Imagemagick does not need to rebuild the configure, but the pear extension:
5) cd /usr/src/php/ext/imagick
6) phpize
7) cd /usr/src/php
8) rm ./configure
9) ./buildconf
10) run configure as you normally would and add --with-imagick
If Imagemagick is installed in a non standard dir, add this dir to --with-imagick=dir
If you want GraphicsMagick instead of ImageMagick as backend, add --with-imagick-gm
11) make
12) make install
I need to be able to convert gifs to jpegs. GD cant do thsi, right?

GD cant do thsi, right? Sure can: $im = imagecreatefromgif('/path/to/image.gif'); imagejpeg($im, '/path/to/converted.jpg'); You just cant use the imagegif() function unless you use a version of gd < 1.6.

Thank you sooooooooooooooo much! I was completly sure that due to the lizence claims it was not possible with gd > 1.6
This solves lots of my problems.
Have a great day,

I would like to provide the surfer with a text input area that would give a means of using bold, underline and different text colors. Can this be done with PHP?

I'm looping through a directory and creating thumbnail images and in doing so, I get the error above for each image. The code I'm using to resize and create the image is below (it's an example from php.net) and the parameters are as follows:
$forcedwidth = 100 $forcedheight = 100 $sourcefile = 'marching/years/2000/Miscellaneous/24left.jpg' $destfile = 'thumbnails/marching/years/2000/Miscellaneous/24left.jpg' $imgcomp = 50
Both directories exist as does the source file. Which makes me wonder, will the library create a directory if it doesn't exist?
function resampimagejpg($forcedwidth, $forcedheight, $sourcefile, $destfile, $imgcomp) {
$g_imgcomp=100-$imgcomp;
$g_srcfile=$sourcefile;
$g_dstfile=$destfile;
$g_fw=$forcedwidth;
$g_fh=$forcedheight;
$g_is=getimagesize($g_srcfile);
if (file_exists($g_srcfile)) {
/////////////// Set Image Size ///////////////////
if(($g_is[0]-$g_fw)>=($g_is[1]-$g_fh)) {
/// Width is Greater Than Or Equal to Height
$g_iw=$g_fw;
$g_ih=($g_fw/$g_is[0])*$g_is[1];
} else {
/// Height is Greater than Width
$g_ih=$g_fh;
$g_iw=($g_ih/$g_is[1])*$g_is[0];
}

$img_src=imagecreatefromjpeg($g_srcfile);
$img_dst=imagecreate($g_iw, $g_ih);
imagecopyresampled($img_dst, $img_src, 0, 0, 0, 0, $g_iw, $g_ih, $g_is[0], $g_is[1]);
