The htaccess option would not really be a great solution for me given we
have many diferent htacces files do lots of different things.
But I did try it just in case it lead me to some answers. I created a new
directory placed a .htaccess file in there with the correct stuff directing
404's to a test error page. The test error page has your exact code except I
dont mail I just displayed and it all worked, BUT the $URL variable as per
you last email just contains the URL of the error document.
I'm thinking maybe some settings in my php.ini file need to be different.
I'm looking into that now.

Try $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REQUEST_URI'] (and others if needed)
Works on my Apache/PHP4.0.4pl1 both virtual and non-virtual server.
--httpd.conf--
ErrorDocument 403 /error/not_permitted.php
ErrorDocument 404 /error/file_not_found.php
-------------
Or are you using CGI version of PHP? (Even if you have access to httpd.conf??)
I don't use CGI version, but you can still put phpinfo() in your error
docuements and see if there is anything useful values are set or not. If you can
use DSO, I recommend to do it.

On which machine? Under how much load? Using what operating system?
Write a script that does what you want and put a timer on it.

Sure, depending on the hardware, database and server configuration. On my
desktop with a small database which fits entirely in RAM, MySQL doesn't even
blink at a few thousand updates in a second. If you were working with a large
database which is being read and updated by many processes at the same time,
performance won't be as good.
Tips:
- Make sure you have enough RAM. An easy way to get high performance is
to make sure the operating system can cache everything and MySQL has
all the space it wants for buffers.
- Try to avoid situations with lots of SELECT and UPDATE / INSERT
statements being executed at the same time. MyISAM tables allow
simultaneous SELECT and INSERT statements, which can help a lot.
- If the data doesn't need to be kept permanently (e.g. session
variables), use the HEAP table type. HEAP tables are kept entirely in
memory and are insanely fast. This could also help with busy tables
getting updated frequently - have a HEAP table which is periodically
refreshed using the INSERT INTO ... SELECT syntax so that you get a
large SELECT or INSERT statement hitting a table ever 30 seconds
instead of every time someone requests a page.
Brandon,
It works just fine via ODBC. Driver are available at www.openlinksw.com and
a HOWTO on compiling iODBC into PHP (needed if you want to use ODBC drivers)
is available at www.iodbc.org.
Please let me know if I may assist in any way.

You can use GET/POST/COOKIE to do that.
i.e. You must send new request to server and send variables, that you wan to
pass PHP, as $HTTP_GET_VARS, $HTTP_POST_VARS or $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS. And of
course, you cannot call PHP functions from JavaScript.

Dear All,
Is there a way to re-write a method in parent class and still access
the parent class by parent::method()?
I have a class (classChild) extended from another class
(classParent). In classChild I have re-implemented method foo() as a
wrapper function of method foo() in classParent. Method foo() in
classChild calls method foo() in classParent by parent::foo().
The scheme works out fine when I test it by writing a shell script
that runs a CGI version of php. But when I run it through apache module, I
got a fatal error saying 'No parent class available in this context'. I
have made sure the parent class file is included, and the classChild
'EXTENDS' the classParent. Now, where is my parent?
Thanks in advance for any comment and suggestion.

P.S.: PHP CGI version is 4.0.2, apache module version is 4.0.4pl1
Hello,
I am trying to start/stop a java program using PHP 4.04 on RH6.2. I can
successfully start the program using:
exec("/usr/bin/nohup /home/itrades/bin/startserver >/dev/null 2>&1 &")
But when I revisit the page or refresh the page the web server hangs
until I kill the java program.
Can someone tell me why or provide a solution for controlling
applications via PHP.
Thanks

I would wirte a C or Perl program query database tables. If there are
event must be handled, send e-mail or whatever. Use cron, to execute
the program for certain interval. If you have many events, users or need
realtime response, you may need to use different approch so that you
don't have to query db a lot. i.e. create deamon that stores and handles
events.
If you really would like to do it with PHP, use CGI version of PHP for it.

I figured out what was going on. I knew it would be something simple
(embarrassingly simple too).
We run apache split across 2 servers so I have the error document path in
the httpd.conf as a full URL, i.e. http://www.etc...
This is what was causing it to lose all the Redirect info. When I use a
relative address for the error document it works like you would expect. I
would have expected that the HTTP_REFERER would be set when using the full
http url but its not...thems the breaks!!
Thanks for your help David and Yasuo. Maybe this will all help someone else
in the future too.

hi,
How could i sort data in a multi-dim array?
for example:
$data = array(
array("Job 3","House Party","Done"),
array("Job 1","Days End","Done"),
array("Job 5","Light Wave House","Done"),
array("Job 2","The Amazon","Not Done"),
array("Job 4","Fear","Not Done")
);
I want to sort that array via the first,second or third key (Job ID,Job
Title,Job Status)
basically what i need to end up doing is having a table where i can click on
the header colums and sort ascending/descending based on the heading i
clicked
very much like SQL's ORDER BY, which ive been using so far, but now ive come
into a situation where the data cant be fetched from a DB.
Thanks in advance

It could be that (although I'd expect them to close unless your code or
your Apache settings explicitly keep them open) or it could be the
forking (careful how you pronounce that!) of Apache. What kernel are you
using? Going to 2.4 should show an improvement in Apache performance if
the forking is the problem.
I'll try a look at the code, but there are far better code readers out
there than me!

I don't want to do that because that sort of link will work only when this page is

It won't work if I mirror my site onto a hard disk :-).

Well, if you use PHP you'll need some web server anyway. And all good
mirroring tools can do automatic link conversion (absolute->relative).
So I'd just go with absolute paths.

In talking about PEAR and PHPLIB, the subject of large class
libraries came up.
So in response to this problem, I had this idea. I'd like to get
some feedback on it.
Every script includes a simple parsing function from the
'prepend.php' file at the very top of the script. This function causes
the script being loaded to **parse itself**. It finds all the 'new'
statements, to make an array of needed class names.
Only the executing file would would parse itself, all the classname
files and classname extending files would could only include any parent
object file, and NOT the parsing function file.
<implementation-1>
The parsing function includes the correct file by just adding '.php' to
the end of the class name. This would require:
A/ One class per file
B/ the class name same as the class
<implementation-2>
Classes are in libraries that are named after the prefix of a SET of
classnames. The library file is included which has the bare name of the
'prefix.php'.
<implementation-3>
Classes have little 'ghost files.php' which are just just an
'include once' statement for the relative library. The first time the
library gets included, it appends all the class names it holds to an
array in the parent script. The function checks that array for relevant
classnames before reopening the 'ghost.file' and reopening the
'libraryX.php' file.
<implementation-4>
The classname<>library list is in a master library file, parsed into
an array first off in the function. The parsing function first queues up
classnames needed, then checks the names in the master list, erroring
out if desired, then queues up the appropriate libraries to include,
then includes them.
<implementation-5>
An extension of number 4 above. You give the parsing function the
class/class library path, and for any classes it doesn't find in the
master list (table), it goes through the libraries looking for 'class'
statements and updates the list. If you happen to be the unlucky user
who loads a page when that happens, it sends a timed redirect page back
to the original page with a message with the (typical user) mind blowing
message, "You have triggered an automatic self improvement process on
our server! The server is adjusting it's performance to your
requirements. Thank you, and HANG ON! You will be rewarded with a reload
of the page you requested and a faster site! Thank you for helping us!
Reload will occur in '10', '9', etc....." It's be good if you could make
this an 'in memory table or file'.
<?php-----------?>
FINAL RESULT FOR ANY IMPLEMENTATION:
A/ You would never have to worry about what file to include the
class from.
B/ You could limit the amount php included.
C/ Depending on the implementation, you could limit the number of
php, file opening, and use also class libraries.
With good grouping, this would let a minimal amount of included php/file
operations happen.

Pros and Cons
Pros
Persing required files result in minimum number of included files, it may result
in better performance.
Cons
Parsing and finding required files from scripts would requries CPU intensive
work, it may NOT result in better performance.
It would be nice to have a ability to include all class/function definitions
required by a certain scripts. However, I think programmer must control
include()/require(). If there are many files to be included and hit server
performance, I would consider to use script cache modules like, Zend Cache, APC
or bcache(?).
Besides, I think programmers should know which files are needed for a program
and PHP complains if there is no class/function definitions.
Although, this kind of approch works great for build system like autoconf,
libtool, etc. It is generally not a good idea especially for script language
like PHP.
(In some cases, this kind of approch works great with PHP also. For example, you
can implement abstruct database class as follows. Create abstruct database class
for 20 different databases, and you want to use the same class name for all
databases. You can make a class that defined only user interfaces and create
database spcific object as the class property. Each database has its own class
definitions and abstruct database class needs only one of them. In this case,
you can improve performance with your approch)
Sorry for the negative response.

If i changed TEXT file All right!
If i changed Binary file php script answer Error!
in sources code PHP using Binary method...
And temporary subject $source_file is empty!
if i insert in PHP { echo "source: $source_file"; } and PHP say "Source:

I'm not sure if you are talking about HTTP upload or FTP upload, but anyway
if you are using HTTP upload, check $HTTP_POST_FILES for uploaded file info.
(It must be set if you are using recent PHP4)
If you are talking about FTP upload, post some of your code.

I am creating a site right now and I think many of the pages will
use php in the future...But not right now.
Should I put the .php extentsion at the end of these pages now
even though they currently do not have php on them.
So there anything that can go wrong if I do this?
Steve
Before you do that, you are better to read PHP manual AT LEAST Getting Started
Section.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/getting-started.php

YES!
The only "problem" will be that these .php pages will be maybe 5% slower
since PHP is "parsing" them.

Does anyone know of one that can do custom function
management?
e.g.
You have a functions file - site_functions.php, and a page
- the_page.php, with the functions file included/required.
What I need is to be able to open the_page.php, and have
a functions list that shows what functions are available from
the included file, and be able to select a function to include,
complete with the number of parameters if possible.
Does anyone know of an editor that will do that?
(Win / Mac / Linux)

Many thanks Yasuo.
Unless I've missed something (which is quite possible), that
would seem to help if I was trying to do it at runtime, but this
is a feature I need during development (ie a feature of the
editor).

Hi,
I don't want to argue about anything, just point out something that occurred
to me.
First of all, I am a newbie as far as PHP is concerned, though I am more
than comfortable with programming.
I recently asked a pretty simple question on this list ("Finding the
depth"). I could have found out the answer to it in about 10-15 minutes on
my own, thanks to my experience with programming. Still, I posted the
question to this list. Why?
What did I gain:
* I saved time.
* I got to see _PHP_code_ for solving my problem. Any solution from me
would have been more C++ than PHP. I got to become more familiar with
thinking the PHP way.
What did I lose:
* Nothing, because reading the code snippet and investigating the
functions used therein taught me all I needed to know (for this
instance). Following the "See also" links taught me some more.
Did I _waste_ somebody else's time? I don't really think so. Plus, a posting
can always be ignored...
An answer saying "RTFM" and pointing me the relevant functions (even if they
were just function names) would have been good enough too. But then I
wouldn't have gotten to see an experienced person's PHP code.
The question is: how many of you think that that posting was "ok" and how
many had to curb the temptation to flame me :-)?
Btw, I too don't like all those "PHP editor" and "How to loop" type of
questions ;-). But then, I simply delete them and that's it!

The question itself was fine. I think the FAQ postings haven't been about
Newbie's to PHP, but newbie's to programming in general asking Programming
questions in the guise of being PHP questions. There are many resources out
there on the basics of programming, and their is simply no excuse for not
understanding what a variable is, what a loop is, and how a function works.
However, I don't expect the average person to know the Rules of
Normalization for database design, nor do I expect the average PHP person to
understand classes. These concepts, while common for the experiences
programmer, is something that some people just do not deal with. These are
the times the questions are okay. But when you simply don't understand the
concept behind what you want (at least in your post, you understood what you
wanted to accomplish, understood how it could be accomplished, but wanted to
instead find a better/faster way), you are merely hiding the truth.
The mailing list is here not so PHP programmers can program things for
people, but to help people learn (and help out with the occasional problem).
It just bothers me that I spend time learning to program, learning other
languages, learning PHP. If I can't figure something out, I don't jump
right to the mailing list or the news group. I take my time, look through
all my manuals, my own code, look back through the PHPManual and logically
deduce what the problem is. So far that method has worked very well.
Agreed, sometimes a function may not be working like I thought it would, and
I need someone to post some sample code for it in use, but that is not me
not understanding the concepts of programming. Thats merely syntax.
Programming is 90% creativity. The rest is just syntax.

I thought it was "ok" and didn't want to flame you - until now when I saw
that you "could have found out the answer to it in about 10-15 minutes"
on your own (well, not realy). In such a situation the correct thing is
IMO to actually spend these 10-15 minutes and then post your code and ask
the list how this could be done better.

It would probably be easier to just make a 2-D array instead of dealing with
variable variables...

You can *call* a variable-named function, but I don't think you can define
them like that...

It sounds like maybe you are trying to send too many emails -- The PHP
mail() function just isn't cut out for mass email.
Look at using Manuel Lemos' mail class or some other code that talks direct
to port 80.

Subject: [PHP] Send Mail Problem
Hello
I'm PHPer in Korea.
Now I have a problem with mail function.
I used it many times and it worked very well.
But it has a problem today !
When I use mail() function in a PHP web page, it took too many times to show
that web page like sleep.
Mail function returns some values so I guess it worked well.
But mail transfer was not done !
So I tried to restart Sendmail, Apache but it didn't make any differences .
Oops!
What I have to do to solve this problem ?
It's a strange problem.
> Warning: Unable to jump to row 0 on MySQL result index 2 in
> /home/sites/site3/web/showthumb on line 71
>
> --here is my code
Change it to look like this:
> $connetion = mysql_connect("localhost","cel34243","s2343223") or
die($php_errormsg);
> $query = "select images from celeb where name=\"$dir.\" ";
> $result = mysql_db_query("celebzone", $query) or die(mysql_error());
> $imagesnum= mysql_result($result, "images");
You are missing an argument there...
You need a row number in front of "images".
Also, you probably don't have any rows that matched your criteria, so asking
for the first row (row 0) is bad.

Use it how?...
Do you want to use it to decide where to send them?:
$userlevel = mysql_result($result, 0, 'userlevel');
switch ($userlevel){
case 1:
header("Location: guru.php");
break;
case 2:
header("Location: newbie.php");
break;
}
Or, do you want to only get users matching some pre-defined userlevel?
$sql = "select * from $table_name where member = '$member' and pw = '$pw'
and userlevel = '$userlevel'";

You can use PHP to write out the HTML to a file, instead of using
echo/print.
You'll have to fwrite() *ALL* your HTML, however.
I did this for a site that got burned into a CD once.
There are also some tools "out there" to "walk" a site and "steal" it, that
you could use on your "work" site to snag all the HTML output.

you don't have to use fwrite() if you use output buffering.
just ob_start(), ob_get_contents(), and ob_end_clean()
and leave your code how it is.

Perhaps the user pasted in characters that caused those HTML codes to be
part of their input...

No, because you have a record for every single nusario, since you don't

Cookies do not inherently support arrays.
You'll have to serialize/unserialize your arrays to store them in cookies.

Excel can import tab-delimited (or CSV) files pretty darn easy...
And you can spew those out very easily...

Hello everyone!
Could anyone help me? My problem is the following:
I have to insert an image from a PostgreSQL database(Large Object), into
a web- page.
How can I make it?
Thanks, bye!

Hello Alain,
from my point of view, the easiest way would be to use Apache on Win2k ( I got
1.3.17 installed and running very fine) and use Apache to control access to user
home directories which would be restricted realms. As for PHP, sapi module seems
to be stable for me. Download the full php 4.0.4Pl1 archive from
http://www.php4win.de, unpack to desired directory, move the php4ts.dll to
winnt\system32 directory, and copy/move php4apache.dll to apache's modules
directory.
Then add:
LoadModule php4_module modules/php4apache.dll
directive to httpd.conf under modules directive, uncomment lines:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml .inc .php4 (I add couple
more extensions to be sure that all scripts are parsed with php, and inc is
important if you use include files)
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
And configure apache as desired. Add index.php, default.php to autoindex files,
etc.
If you don't want to create restricted directories for each group, you could
create 16 http.conf files, where the only difference would be webroot and
docroot directory. For example using c:\wwwroot as uppermost directory for
storing documents, create 16 directories like group01, group02 ... group16 which
will be root directories for each group.
Then in httpd.conf01 the DocumentRoot will look like this
DocumentRoot "c:/webroot/group01"
and also Directory directive
<Directory "c:/webroot/group01">
For group02 change group01 to group02, etc.
Then the only thing you'd need would be copy corresponding httpd.confxy to
\apache\conf\httpd.conf and restart apache. Php.ini and my.ini shouldn't need
any change.
When configuring php, I found one small gotcha, if you want to use curl library,
you have to copy SSLeay32.dll and libeay32.dll from \php\dlls to winnt\system32
directory. If you want to use gd functions with gif creations, enable gd_gif.dll
in extensions directives.
For mysql I'd create one database per group and allow access only to that group.
Or allow access to everyone, and assign full rights to the owning group.
just my .02 cents.

Hi,
I have been playing around trying to build a 'perfect' shopping cart. A brief
as possible feature list: database driven, fully indexable by search engines,
and can operate without cookies.
I decided to use Apache's mod_rewrite to change a standard looking URL into
something php can use easily.
ex: http://www.mydomain.com/produce/carrots/spec1/94d0bb50cd.html
would become
http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?dept=produce&product=carrots&;
specials=spec1&PHPSESSID=94d0bb50cd
Now for the problem, when a search engine spiders this it will be including
the session id. Unless I do some kind of checking, I could end up with
multiple users having the same session id -- if they click into the site from
a search engine or a bookmark.
The best solution I have come up with is to add a timestamp variable inside
the URL. If the timestamp is more than 1 hour old -- reassign a new timestamp
and session id then build the page as specified by the other variables passed
to the script.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a more elegant solution for this problem.
thanks,
don

Hello,
Try the following code:
<?php
$gGlobal = 1;
function ChangeGlobalValue()
{
global $gGlobal;
$local = 55;
$gGlobal = $local;
print "Value:Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
}
function ChangeGlobalRef()
{
global $gGlobal;
$local = 99;
$gGlobal = &$local;
print "Ref:Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
}
print "Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
ChangeGlobalValue();
print "Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
ChangeGlobalRef();
print "Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
?>
I get the following results:
Global=1
Value:Global=55
Global=55
Ref:Global=99
Global=55 <=========== shouldn't this be 99 ???
Why does setting a global variable to a reference fail in a function?
Tested on PHP 4.0.4 on IIS5 (CGI version).
This is expected behavior of PHP's reference. Reference works like a pointer,
but it dose NOT works like a pointer. This is case that reference does not
works as many programmer expected.
I think this is in manual.
Hint: when programmer use 'global $var'. It is the same as do '$var = &
$GLOBALS['var']'.

Thanks Yasuo,
That might explain why $gGlobal is not permanently set to 99,
but that doesn't explain why $gGlobal is set to 55 in ChangeGlobalValue()
permanently. So are you or am I missing something?

Reference in PHP is not actually a pointer. It's a common pithole for C/C++
programmers.
In C/C++, you will get 99, instead of 55. But we get 55 in PHP. Here is why.
Reference is just a place holder for a value.
Your code creates referece with "global" statement asI wrote in previous mail.
global $var;
creates reference to $GLOBAL['var'] for local $var IN function scope.
$var is actually a reference, NOT a variable itself nor a pointer.

You assign reference of "$local" to "$gGlobal" which is also a reference.
$gGlobal = &$local;
This replaces $gGlobal(reference) with $local(reference).
Your code does not change $GLOBAL['gGlobal'], which is the value you want to
change.
> > > print "Ref:Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
> > > }
Since your code replace reference with reference inside function scope.
You get $gGlobal = 99 inside the function, but not outside the function.
(Note: Your $gGlobal is refered to $local that has 99 in the function)
Because $gGlobal itself is local to the function.
Therefore, you cannot get 99 outside the function, but 55.
I hope I explained well, so that all readers understand what I'm talking about.

Hi,
My configuration: w2kserver (1GB RAM etc.), last stable Apache, last
stable PHP4.
I installed Servicepack 1 to my clean w2k Server. After that PHP4.0.4pl1
generates a "FATAL: emalloc(): Unable to allocate 2147483599 bytes"
errormessage when I tried to call the function odbc_execute(). Before
this it works! I think, any other should know about this problem.
Carsten
Is it possible to use odbc to connect to a mysql database.
If not which database functions should i use
Hi,
Yep I do. I just figured out that it was because I had session_start() inside
another function ;-)
Thanks anyway,
Jord

A performance comparison of various web scripting languages. PHP does rather
well!

Yes, the Zend Encoder is the Zend Compiler, it just went through
a name change, to more accurately reflect what it does. After all,
it's the Zend Engine itself which compiles.

Hi Yasuo,
Thanks for taking the trouble to explain everything in such detail.
Actually I understood your first message. What it doesn't explain is why:
$gGlobal == 1 is changed permanently to $gGlobal == 55.
in the following code:
<?php
function ChangeGlobalValue()
{
global $gGlobal;
$local = 55;
$gGlobal = $local;
print "Value:Global=$gGlobal<BR>";
}
$gGlobal = 1;
ChangeGlobalValue();
print $gGlobal; <=============== THIS IS 55 NOW
?>
