I use Homesite.
It has plug-ins for PHP so you have tps and cose completion.
I just modified another plug it has so I can see then entire list of methods
a script has in a window, which can then jump to, scroll to, insert here.
And I can hit F-12 and it will talk to my apache server and run the script
right there!
All in one!
Thee is CVS integration for Homesite, I just never got around to it.
I just use WinCVS, I'm just lazy.

PHP eclipse is also nice, you need eclipse from http://www.eclipse.org
and then you install the PHP Eclipse module
http://phpeclipse.sourceforge.net. Very easy to install, I am a big fan
of Komodo, I also like Vim, Kate and Eclipse. I tried Zend Studio 1 and
2 but it didn't live up to the expectations that I had for the price.

I must agree with Ryan that there is no 1 app to use. Dreamweaver MX is a staple in anyone's software library, especially for visual development, and Zend Studio is another great app. However, what I like about either, you may not so you'll really just have to try out the numerous demos and find what works for you.

Doesn't fit in the "visual feel" category but I really like HTML-Kit

Eclipse offers tons of additional plugins and if you like java you can
surely write your own php plugins too.
There are many great db plugins that i use too.

Naaaah, a slightly larger company named Microsoft Inc. created an editor
called wordpad that doesn't bugger the document with \r, or is it, it
can read the document properly when \r doesn't exist? *shrug* I use joe
-- joe, yeah that's right, one more time JOE >:) It's got really cool
features, like no auto completion, no colour, no graphics. best of all
it runs in a terminal such as Eterm or aterm which can be semi
transparent so I can see my cool background showing through. What more
could you ask for?
Cheers,
Rob.

You must either be insane, a genius, or joking. I couldn't imagine
writing code without context sensitive highlighting -- there are so many
bugs that would be overlooked. And not being able to use M-g to goto a
line number? (I use Emacs) I'd go bonkers.
Look at GNU Emacs. It's got a large learning curve, but once you learn
it it's worth it. E-mail me if you want how-to instructions on setting
it up.

hightlighting? Like built-in colorful magic markers? Ehh. Bugs can NEVER go
overlooked as long as PHP's parse-errors are always right there to rub it in that

Notepad as well. ctrl+G -- only found out about that a year into

Hope ya don't think I'm tryin to poke fun Dan. I meant well ;) Quite frankly
I dont think I'd ever learn an "editor", I've used Notepad so long, it's like

Maybe my problem ist simple to solve, but I canīt.
Here it is:
A special PHP CGI Script, letīs say 'phpscript.cgi' might be called with GET
or POST Parameters.
Though I will never now which kind and how many of such parameters will be
passed to that script, I have to do some work of mine with them and after
that would like to call (redirect to) an other script passing exact the same
amount and type of pararmeters origninally given to my famous phpscript.cgi.
I just succeeded in handling the URL based stuff like Host, Scriptname GET
Paramters etc.
But how to handle the POST Data ?
Any guess out there ?

All POST value are stored in the $_POST[] array, all GET values are
stored in the $_GET[] array. Both POST and GET values are stored in the
$_REQUEST[] array. So if you don't know whether it will be a post or a
get, grab the data by accessing the $_REQUEST[] array.

Use the $_POST array. You can loop through it conveniently using something like
the following:
foreach ($_POST as $name => $value)
{
...
}
As for redirecting, you cannot force a client to send a POST request to another
URL (thankfully). So, you either need to send the POST request yourself (and
send the output to the client), or you need to think of another solution (such
as using URL variables for everything).
Hope that helps.

Yes, it will get rid of the permission problems.
Example of creating a directory:
$fp=ftp_connect('localhost');
if(ftp_login($fp, $ftpuser, $ftppass)) {
if(ftp_mkdir($fp, $ftpbasedir .'members/'.$iid)) {
/*if(!ftp_site($fp, 'chmod 0777 '.$ftpbasedir .'members/'.$iid))
die('Could not change permission on user directory (chmod 0777
'.$ftpbasedir .'members/'.$iid.')!'); this would not work for you*/
} else {
die('Could not create directory, user directory not created!');
}
} else {
die('Could not login, user directory not created!');
}
I had to create directory with ftp so I could later open it using
opendir(). Because chmod does not work for you you will have to even
create files using ftp functions.

My 2 cents. OSCommerce is great if you want to use it out of the box, but we
tried to extend it and alter some of it's functions and the code is very
obtuse and making changes in one spot can lead to problems in others. Also,
it tries to throw in the kitchen-sink worth of options and if you need
something slimmer or more easily configured you might be better off starting
from another codebase.
That being said..if you're looking for an OSS program which works well for
what it's meant to be..a full featured shopping cart solution..then look no
further.

I messed around with it for a few days just trying to add two fields to
the product table but it so difficult to find where all the mysql db
errors were being generated I just gave up and decided to write my own
cart from scratch. ;)
I should clarify a little. I gave up after only trying to add two fields
because the other features that I needed in a shopping cart were WAY
more complicated than the two fields and I reasoned that if it was that
difficult to add two fields it's going to be near impossible to add what
I wanted. So I decided my time would be better spent developing my own
cart (what learning experience it's been!!). I would be able to extend
my own cart much more quickly and efficiently than I could anyone elses
code.

Hey everyone.
I am looking for an editor that will highlight the string
"{$array['index']['index']}" within a string.
For example:
+--------- gray ------------+
| |
| +-- red ---+ |
| | | |
$variable = "The amount is {$amount[0]}.";
Is there anything out there that does this?

If you need more than two levels of classification I would suggest you
use a method called Modified Preorder Tree Traversal. You can read about
it here. http://www.sitepoint.com/article/1105
It's a little complicated at first but once you grasp the idea it starts
to make a lot of sense.
Hope this helps.

Wondering if maybe someone famililar with php5 can respond to this. I am
reading about PHP5 and it's interface support, and i have a concern. The
purpose of interfaces is to handle multiple inheritance in a fashion that
resolves a number of conflicts that arise when performing true multiple
inheritance, the most obvious conflict being two identical members being
inherited from different classes.
What appears to be missing, and correct me if I'm wrong, is the ability to
address this issue in PHP5. A (rather poor) Example:
interface BoardMember
{
function position(); // used to set board position of board member
}
interface Employee
{
function position(); // used to set job title of employee
}
class BusyBoardMember implements Employee, BoardMember
{
function position(); // what does this function do? ambiguous unless I
am missing something
}
In Visual Basic, for instance, this is handled using the "implements"
keyword, so the function definitions within BusyBoardMember would look like:
function position() implements Employee.position()
function position() implements BoardMember.position()
Then when you do something like
function operatesOnEmployee(Employee $e)
{
$e->position("CEO")
}
or
function operatesOnBoardMember(BoardMember $b) {
$b->position("Chairman")
}
The right thing can happen, as the compiler/parser knows which position()
you're referring to in each case.
Hopefully this is the right list to be posting this, and hopefully I'm
completely wrong and have missed something while reading about PHP5 :)

Greetings,
I'm designing a table with 21 columns and 3 rows (1-row column header, 2-row
data) store in .php file, and each cell of this table storing a value, that
I stored it using MySQL database. Now, I want all the values (just the
values, but NOT the table) shown on this page automatic update every
1-second.
So, I use "create_table.php" to create the table and automatic load
"get_data.php" every 1-second to retrieve data from database. Once the
"get_data.php" loaded, my IE only show those data and the table disappeared.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

I'm beggining to develop the theory that things go awry when
using exec from within a webserver-executed PHP script to call
a shell script itself written in PHP.
The example that I'm really trying to do might be too complicated for
presentation here, but here's a simplified version.
Take the shell script "helloWorld.php":
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
<?PHP print "\nHello World!"; ?>
Now take a calling wrapper:
<?PHP
$execStr = "/usr/home/jakus1/www/htdocs/form2mail/helloWorld.php";
echo "\n<br>Calling: ($execStr)";
$output = exec($execStr);
echo "\n<br>Called: ($execStr)";
echo "\n<br>output: ($output)";
?>
Note that there are no loops or recursing in those scripts. I bring that
up because of the bizzare results I'm getting. Brace yourselves:
Calling: (/usr/home/jakus1/www/htdocs/form2mail/helloWorld.php)
Called: (/usr/home/jakus1/www/htdocs/form2mail/helloWorld.php)
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: (
output: ()))))))))))))))))))))))
(See http://fsboutah.net/form2mail/testphpcall.php )
So... not only am I not getting the expected result back in $output,
something really weird is going on.
If, however, I change the $execStr assigning line in the calling script to:
$execStr = "ls -l";
I get what I expect:
Calling: (ls -l)
Called: (ls -l)
output: (-rw-r--r-- 1 jakus1 vuser 193 Sep 23 01:27 testgrcall.php)
(See http://fsboutah.net/form2mail/testlscall.php )
I wondered if it might just be a problem with calling bang-begun scripts, so
I tried a helloWorld.sh:
#!/bin/sh
echo Hello World
(See http://fsboutah.net/form2mail/testshcall.php )
And got:
Calling: (/usr/home/jakus1/www/htdocs/form2mail/helloWorld.sh)
Called: (/usr/home/jakus1/www/htdocs/form2mail/helloWorld.sh)
output: (Hello World)
(See http://fsboutah.net/form2mail/testshcall.php )
Similar results for perl (see http://fsboutah.net/form2mail/testplcall.php ).
Anyone have an idea of the black magic that forbids trying to do this with php?
Thanks,
Weston

Why are you trying to call a php script with exec...since it is php why
not just call it directly instead of creating a process outside of the
php you are in and then creating a php cgi to do the processing. It is
easier to call parse the file with the php process that you are
currently in.

One damn good reason would be namespace conflict.

While what you're saying is true, the point of what I'm trying to do is let
a PHP script I'm writing call another arbitrary script to retrieve some
data that's beyond the scope of what it should be made to do. Abstraction,
essentially.
I could use include() to accomplish this; however, I don't want to limit
someone else who might be using this extension mechanism to writing only
PHP scripts if at all possible. Using include() also introduces namespace
collision problems, which again, I'd like anyone using this mechanism
(including myself) to not have to worry about.
In short, I think there's a payoff by designing this way, allowing someone
to call an arbitrary external script (PHP or no) to perform a certain
function. I might be wrong. :)
The other thing -- I'm just curious as to why this apparently breaks PHP.

Hi,
I'm trying to pass parameters to a PHP script and it's not working.
Whilst this is the first time I've tried to use this, I'm basically
copying an example straight out of a text book and can't understand why
this doesn't work.
In one script I have a (static) link:
http://localhost/text/basic.php?html=basic
ATM basic.php looks like this:
<?php
echo("<html>\n<body>\n<p>html: $html</p>\n</body>\n</html>\n");
?>
Pretty simple? Well it doesn't work. All I get in my browser is:
html:
The only thing I can think of is that I have "register_globals" switched
off in php.ini, but I didn't think that this applied when it came to
passing parameters in URLs.
Can anyone help?
thankyou; sol

Yes, it does apply. Change $html to $_GET['html'] since you are passing
this in the URL. If you were passing via a form post method, you would
use $_POST['html'], and you can use $_REQUEST['html'] for either. Look
here...

Hi,
I'm trying to generate a string that contains a <br>, to insert into a MySQL
table. It appears the <br> is being stripped out either just before or
during the update.
** code **
// has both info, update both
$ad_contact = $tr_email;
$ad_contact .= "<br>";
$pSep = "-";
$ad_contact .= $tr_p1AC;
$ad_contact .= $pSep;
$ad_contact .= $tr_p1PRE;
$ad_contact .= $pSep;
$ad_contact .= $tr_p1SUF;
// update the record
$qUpdate = "UPDATE subscriber_ads SET ad_contact = '$ad_contact' WHERE subid
= $sid"; print("$qUpdate<br>"); $rUpdate = mysql_query($qUpdate, $CCB) or
die(mysql_error());
The print() statement shows the correct format in the browser. I've looked
at printf() and sprintf(), but can't quite figure the syntax.
I want the <br> in the string so it will output correctly in the browser
when that data is retrieved from the DB.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
James

I have a link on a page...
<a href="./admin/?listType=event_list&action=item_add" target=_blank>
Add or Update Your Event
</a>
This open the PHP file just fine and passes the vars fine.
But I need a new window to open via JavaScript. Why? Because I have a
"RETURN" link on the opening page that closes the child page, and if this
new window is not opened via JavaScript I get the "Close Window OK?" dialog.
The only way to not get that annoying dialog is to have that child window
opened via JavaScript.
So I did this...
<a
href="javascript:window.open('./admin/?listType=event_list&action=item_add',
'', '');">
Add or Update Your Event
</a>
A child window opens, I get 1 error dialog and a Download dialog, and then
the page opens fine.
error:
IE cannot download calendar.php from window.open('...
IE was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is
either
unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again.
I hit OK and both the error dialog and the download page goes away.
But the desired page is displayed in the child window!
And the "RETURN" link closes the window without complaint!
So, I've solved one issue to raise another.
Anyone have any idea on this?
Thanks

Hi all;
I would like to cash all the output of PHP files on my apache .. to increase
the performance. To prevent PHP to work all the time to interpret and
connect to myself which is slow the performance and use the CPU .. as I have
very heavy loaded server.. I thought there might be a way to store all the
HTML output from my PHP pages, that will apache serve instead of calling
the PHP file every.. and should be a way to time the update ...
Any idea ??

The correct spelling is "cache." I'm not trying to be a spelling and grammar freak
(though I am), simply aiding your future searches on the topic.
PEAR has a very nice output caching class. I haven't used it myself, but I've heard
good things. I believe it was discussed recently on this very list, though it may
have been in PHP Architect. I read too many things to keep track! :)

I use the TAR.php file for extract tar.gz file. The tar file extracted
fine, but the tar class raises the 'Invalid block size 351'. Why? And
how can I discard this error.
