Hi, people
#The problem:
There is an error message that stops proper loading of one iFRAME, I
couldn't understand what is the problem.
Complete error message issued:
CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:<<
###Additional:
PHP Version 4.3.3 is running on Windows 2000 server
This is a common problem with php on iis, google for the error string to
get possible solutions.

Most of the time, I edit files via the command line, (FBSD).
When the files are saved, it adds a \n (newline) character (at least I believe
that is what it is) after the closing ?>
When viewing these files in a windows GUI editor, there is an extra line
after the ?> closing tag.
Using the php function headers_sent(), doesn't show that there is any output
being created by these extra lines after closing ?>
So is "white space" only physical space (\s) or can it be anything like
\t \r \n???
Thanks.

This is a feature/bug of PHP, depending on your perspective. When a
closing ?> is followed by a newline, the newline is not output.
Hope that helps.

FYI, if you're woprried about the "header cannot be sent due to
output..." error, then if your file only has code and no HTML, then you
can omit the ?> tag at the end of your script. This solves countless
issues with there being a space, a tab, a newline, or any whitespace
after the closing tag.
Cheers,
Rob.

Whats your take on adding your own data in the $_SERVER array?
For example, if I wanted to add a value to the $_SERVER array like ->
$_SERVER['foo'] = 'bar';
Yes its possible, but Im looking for "legality" issues with this frame of
thought.
Thanks

been trying to use a code that i got from
www.hotscripts.com the scipts retutns alternet rows colors for information
sent back from the database when displayed in the broswer.
Here is the script:

function alternate_rows(
// color_1 and color_2 have default values, but can be over-ridden.
$data,
$color_1 = '#999999',
$color_2 = 'black'

{
// Declare $color as static so it retains its value when program
// execution leaves the local function's scope.
static $color;
// Set the color to that's not currently set.
if ( $color == $color_1 )
{
$color = $color_2;
}
else

Well, first of all Ill just scrap you script since this one is so easy
its better to do it from scratch.
OK, somewhere in your script you have the code that accually
aoutputs the tables you are working with. Im refferring to lines
here, and Im meaning the bottom of this document which is
the scipt you posted, and I have numbered the lines.
Overview of your script.
Line 5 - we print out the table header
Line 11 - 23 is the loop which prints out all the lines, or rows.
Line 24 closes the table.
So what we have to do?
First we need to declare the values we want to use as backround
colours, lets use logical names :
(fig a)
$backcolor1="#fafafa";
$backcolor2="#c0c0c0";
$backcolor=$backcolor1; // we assign color 1
This code has to be written before the loop starts, so somewhere
before line 11.
In the loop (11-23) we need to switch between the colours where
we write the colour of the <tr>. So we write something like :
(fig b)
echo '<tr style="background-color:' . $backcolor . ';">';
// continue with the rest of <td....... </td></tr> here
// which is -> your code.
This will print out the first background color, nice. Now we need it
to switch color, so we need to add a little logic. This will be inserted
right before the loop ends (infact, you can put it where ever you like
aslong as its in the loop).
(fig c)
if($backcolor=backcolor1)
$backcolor=$backcolor2;
else
$backcolor=$backcolor1;
As you see above the logic is quite simple, if the color is 1 -> we set it
to 2,
else we set it to 1. If you think of it, if you process this logic over and
over again
you will infact get 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2 all the time, :) Nice!
There you have it, and I hope you got the hang of it.
To take your code and implement my colorswither all you need to do is,
1. On line 21 replace #000000 width $backcolor
2. Insert the logic (figc), all lines, into line 19
3. Place fig a in line 4.

Hi,
Please, can someone shed a little light on this subject: who controls PHP?
How much Zend has the power to say what goes into PHP and what not?
How much does the "community" actually have power?
For example, there are practical reasons why one should be concerned about
this: PHP doesn't have an opcode compiler/loader built in. I find this quite
frustrating to have to use some additional software to do that, which for
example Java and Python has built-in.
Please, tell me that Zend is not the dictator here.

PHP is open source. You should have received the license when you
downloaded it. It is not something to be controlled.

Hello,
Zend in no way dictates PHP, they are simply a major player in it's development and
are just as important as the PHP community. Zend develops much of the core extensions
for PHP but at the same time, they do not own or even run.

Ok then, that's nice to hear.
How about then the idea of including a reasonably good compiler/encoder into
standard PHP distribution? For example Turck MMcache is one, gpl'd and comes
as a php/zend extension.
I don't think there are other free encoders as this, so there wouldn't even
be a dispute over which to choose?

Well that's all good and grand but why increase the size of the distribution when it's
not necessary to? Nobody wants to download something they don't necessarily need
included.

Which one should be chosen? Doesn't it seem a bit ridiculous for the PHP
development team to be picking a winner? Open source is all about choice,
in my opinion.
If I had to choose a winner, personally, I wouldn't pick your choice
anyway:

I think Zend even has their business model partly in the encoder software,
there must be some need for it. Don't you think so?
Granted, this would increase the size of the download by a hundred
kilobytes.
I have no connection to Turck MMcache in any way than just a user who needs
it. But distributing software encoded with it is difficult while it is not
so easily available (have to be separately downloaded and installed).
Don't you think that this kind of functionality would be good for *PHP
language* in general, in many ways? It would encourage some people to adopt
PHP in the first place and not think of alternatives which offer this by
default. And of course this kind of software increases the performance too,
while it has the caching functionality as well.

Yes, but,
I don't think APC, while a good cacher, has the source code protecting
(encoding into opcode code) feature?
There is the Ioncobe encoder, Zend encoder and Turck that I know of. Of
course any of them would suit me (just one opinion while everyone has one),
but Turck is the only free one *I* know of. Well, if there is going to be a
winner comtest, maybe Ioncube or Zend wants to join it, I don't know.

I'm still having problems getting Turck MMcache to work on FreeBSD.
It looks like the configure script is Linux-centric. That's a bit of a
minus when it comes to distributing software across multiple platforms.

Yes, it's still quite a new piece of software, at least so I have
understood. But anyway, as an idea for the future. Just about any encoder
would be great.
If it's really built-in, always-on, that would be even better.
Besides encoding, I think code profiling features should be (almost) built
in too.

I've successfully installed turck-mmcache-2.4.6 from FreeBSD
Ports collection.
cd /usr/ports/www/turck-mmcache/
make install

Hello,

How about then the idea of including a reasonably good compiler/encoder into
standard PHP distribution? For example Turck MMcache is one, gpl'd and comes
as a php/zend extension.
I don't think there are other free encoders as this, so there wouldn't even
be a dispute over which to choose?
The right place for you to discuss that is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(aka php-dev) as it is where most core developers hang out.
Anyway, I don't think Zend people will allow a competing extension be
included in the core PHP distribution precisely because it compromises
their business.
At most, they will not object to be included in PECL extension
repository as PECL extensions are not shipped with standard PHP
distribution.
Either way, another problem of Turck is that it uses a GPL license. Most
people do not understand that GPL software is not really free for the
users despite what it is advertised.
There are restrictions in the GPL license that prevent the software that
uses it to be linked with other software without imposing license
contamination, ie, software based on GPL license becomes GPL.
This is incompatible with PHP and Apache licenses which are BSD based.
Unlike GPL, BSD like licenses are really free for the users. So, linking
PHP or Apache with GPL license would make them less free.
Most people do not understand this licensing thing very well because
they confuse free as in gratis which is what Apache, PHP and others with
BSD like licenses, with strictly conditional free of the GPL software.
IMHO, if you really want to make software free without confusion, forget
GPL.

This is exactly the reason I started this thread by asking "Who controls
PHP?" ... Thanks for clearing this out.

Yes, a good point. I could suggest that they change the license Lesser GPL,
but of course I don't know how it goes (I don't have any connections to
Turck people). I had to verify that it is really GPL, and it seems so.

Your approach makes me wonder why you are bothering to convert between
timestamps and formatted dates so many times. It makes much more sense to
use timestamps for conditionals and math, and use date() only in your echo
statement.
As for your particular error, I'm sure you could easily find it with just
a few minutes of debugging. For example, output the value of $start and
$stop at the beginning and very end of each loop.
Also, you might want to use != for not equal. From the manual
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.expressions.php):
PHP supports > (bigger than), >= (bigger than or equal to), == (equal), !=
(not equal), < (smaller than) and <= (smaller than or equal to). These
expressions are most commonly used inside conditional execution, such as
if statements.
Hope that helps.

Well as far as I can see you have 2 options.
a) Store them directly on disc
b) Store them in a database (eg. mySQL)
I would think that a) is the best way without doubt, since it doest
use any extra processing power to serve the images to your visitors
as its only the webserver doing the usuall stuff.
The b) option has a better advantage regarding the backup function,
as its easier backuping a database than backing up a directory with
scripts anyway. (Unless you are thinking FTP, but right now im
thinking automatied scripts) On the otehr hand I have succesfully
installed ZIP ability with PHP, which makes backing up directories
no problem. So all in all it depends on where you stand if you know
what I mean.
The database sollution puts extra demand on the database as it
constantly has to query the database to get the images all the time.
So if you are thinking about the health of your server, and how quick
you want your site to accessible for your visitors I would stick to a)
I dont think it good practise to store images into the database either.

I usually take this option myself, but when you are creating an
application to run on a large cluster of servers, option b is the better
choice in many cases. It eliminates having to maintain server affininty
with your load balancer or having to replicate the data among all the
servers.
Hope that helps.

You may want to try this class to submit HTTP request. See the

Here is j2me code snippet:
byte[] postData="This is my test line! It works!
Yipi-Yai-Yee!!!".getBytes();
try{
c = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url_post);
c.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
c.setRequestProperty( "User-Agent", "Profile/MIDP-1.0
Configuration/CLDC-1.0" );
c.setRequestProperty( "Content-Language", "en-US" );
c.setRequestProperty( "Content-Type", "text/plain");
c.setRequestProperty( "Connection", "close");
c.setRequestProperty( "Content-Disposition","attachment;
name=\"userfile\"; filename=\"userfile_txt\"");
c.setRequestProperty( "Content-Length", Integer.toString(
postData.length ) );
os = c.openOutputStream();
os.write( postData );
os.close();
os = null;
Here is PHP code snippet:
//Here I see HTTP method, and response is POST
:
echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'];
:
:
// Show any post vars, but nothing shows - never!
if(count($_POST)>0){
echo "POST".$new_line;
print_r($_POST);
echo $new_line;
}
:
// try with upload files array
if(count($_FILES)>0){
echo "FILES".$new_line;
print_r($_FILES);
echo $new_line;
}
That's it.

Ivan
