You need to specify valid sender and recipient addresses. If you still have problems, you may want to try this class that has workarounds for some of the problems of the mail() function:

Personally, I love things like this.  I have a feeling that those of us not fond of 
such recursive acronyms are also not fan's of the old "Who's on first?" routine.

It's not exactly a Php problem, but MySQL and Php seem to be so intertwined
and this newsgroup has been so unbelievably helpful that I thought I'd post
the question here.

I've got a query which returns a group of records. the field which I want
to display in a list contains many duplicates. I need to remove all
duplicates so that each entry is only displayed once. Another query based
upon a selection from this list will display all of the appropriate
records.

Can anybody help with the syntax? Do I need a loop or is there a MySQL
command/function which I am overlooking?

Thanx,

You'll want to do a SELECT DISTINCT rather than simply a SELECT for your
SQL query.

SELECT DISTINCT filters out duplicate results from a query.  Hope this
helps.

This time your script is ok, the connection to the SMTP server is established, but because the host name of the machine that executes your php script is not a valid host name in the SMTP server's local network, the server refuses to accept your request for security reasons (smtp relaying blocked for external hosts).


To avoid this you have (at least) 2 options:

- to use the SMTP server of your provider, i.e. SMTP server for which you are a valid local network host. Keep in mind that the SMTP server does not care about the host name you provide in your code ('$senderFrom = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";'), but just takes the real host name of machine executing the script.

- to find and use an open relay SMTP server, that smells very much to a spamming activity, so I strongly suggest you to don't do that.

Hi,
Is this PHP's or Mysql fault or my own ( most likely)?

I'm doing a simple query to the DB and want any companies which start with a
number as the first "letter" to come up...

eg:
1company
23blah company
007bonds company
7lucky seven
etc

This is my query:

if($bok==1)
{$query = "select compno,thCompany from main_company where thCompany LIKE
'%0123456789%'";}

I have looked in the DB and i see quite a few companies have a number in the
beginning, but still this returns me no rows....any ideas why?

Thanks in advance,
-Ryan

That query is looking for any record where thCompany includes the text
"0123456789" at any point. Compare

"LIKE '1%'"

and read the chapter on string comparison functions in the MySQL manual.

Inappropirate but intruiging nonetheless.  I've always been curious how Amazon handles 
the amount of traffic their site generates and now I've got a slightly better idea.  I 
know eBay uses CGI as I've already seen discussion of it.  Regardless, perhaps the 
thread would have been better if prefaced by an "OT."

Thanks for the tidbit, Nathan. :)

  I assume sites like Amazon and Ebay does not use PHP to generate its pages.
  Does it use CGI and C++?? If so, does that mean a C++ program is run each
  time I request a page.

Amazon mostly look for people with Perl, C++ and Java over Unix. Typical
example:

"Competence in C/C++, Perl, and UNIX is essential. Java is a plus."

Take a look at their job ads.

My guess would be an Oracle database (hence the Java), C++ backend, some
Perl glue around the edges, and a big, big server farm. Of course with a big
distributed application like Amazon, different bits are bound to be written
in different languages.

The net-facing machines claim to be Apache (Stronghold) over Linux, and may
have been Solaris in the past, but that doesn't tell you much.

Their desire for RPC/SOAP experience is probably more about integrating the
supply chain than improving Amazon Web Services.

All guesswork, of course. Pinch of salt advised.

Yeah. both of these are uncommented in httpd.conf:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

Restarted Apache? Possibly have another httpd.conf file that Apache is reading? Anything in the error logs when you start Apache?

Yep. same result.

Possibly. I used the package installer from Marc liyannage's web site which seems to have done something odd to the httpd.conf file but I don't know enough unix yet to fix it without possibly screwing up. there are the following config files in the /private/etc/httpd directory:
httpd.conf
httpd.conf.applesaved
httpd.conf.bak
httpd.conf.default
httpd.conf.entropy-backup.1059884513
httpd.conf.entropy-temp


In addition to these, there is another config file named "httpd.conf.php" in the "/usr/local/php/" directory

Which one Apache is using is a mystery to me.

Anything in the error logs when you start Apache?

No. this appears to be in order.

Odd. To be sure it's using the conf file you want, have you tried starting Apache with the command.....?


/path/to/httpd -f /path/to/httpd.conf

I tried your suggestion but the system won't let me modify it even with su permissions. I'm too tired and frustrated to continue tonight. Clearly, the installer must have messed something important up so I'm just going to reinstall Panther tomorrow (have to partition my drive anyway so what the heck)


Thanks for all your help.

€€€€
If you're re-installing anyway, give the Complete MySQL, Complete Apache and
Complete PHP installers from serverlogistics.com a try. I have never had a
problem with them and they come with a couple of nice preference panes for
controlling things - including httpd.cong and log files.

I used to use the Entropy builds but am sold on the serverlogistics ones
now.

cheers

change your logic and put the OR first like this

$string = '';

for($x=0;$x<4;$x++){
  if(!empty($string)) $string .= ' OR ';
  $string .= 'word';
}

This way OR only gets added if there is already something in the string

Slightly more sensible approach:

<?
        $a = array ('1', '2', '3', '4', '5');
        $a = implode (' OR ', $a);
        echo ($a);
?>

Hi,

I'm just discovering how I can effectively emulate interfaces using the
object aggregation extension. This is a major benefit to me so I'd like to
know if others are using this extension. It is marked as experimental. Does
that mean the api might change in PHP4? I'm guessing it won't - I do
understand that this extension will be removed in PHP5 but I need this
feature now so I'm looking to make use of it.

Anyone have an opinion regarding how suitable this extension is in a
production environment? I can guarantee that I'll be using at least PHP
version 4.4.3

I think if there comes a time I need to port the application to php5, I'll
be able to replace the aggregation with actual interfaces.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Matt.
