I agree with Simon
It is actually possible to work three tiers with PHP, but not so obviously as
JSP does.
The hit you take is performance, so it depends on what the application is
whether to use JSP or PHP.
Personally, for any e-commerce work I use PHP. It's very easy to get it hosted
and those few seconds difference in making the scripts immediately available
instead of caching them all could be the difference between a customer
continuing or hitting the back button.
For intranet applications, I've found a definite benefit in JSP (and dare I say
it ASP!). Performance is never such an issue, but scaleability might be, as is
the ability to use the windows API etc - you can of course write C modules for
PHP to do pretty well anything you fancy on any platform, but this may be too
much hassle for you.

Try something like this...
<?php
print " <textarea cols=\"60\" rows=\"7\"
name=\"LongDesc\">";
if ($editing) {
print "$desc_long";
}
print "</textarea>\n";
?>
Note that there's no blank lines between the <textarea> and </textarea>
tags besides those present in the $desc_long string that was retrieved from
the database. That avoids adding undesired blank lines and spaces.

Your problem is probably not with the form passing the data; it's in your
storing it in the db. Remember there's probably lots of \n characters in a
text field. If you try to put these into a db field your results are
unpredictable; meaning the db software may or may not handle them properly.
Try using addslashes ($TextField=addslashes($TextField)) before writing and
stripslahes ( ($TextField=stripslashes($TextField)) after the db write to
return the data to it's original values.

It does work on the face of it. But when you
query the database the field is empty even if you filled
it in.

I thought it might be that as well but luckily Yoann sorted
it out for with this solution:
<"----I'm note sure the attribute "value" works with the tag "textarea".
Try this :
<textarea name="notes" rows="6" cols="30">
<?php echo $myrow["notes"] ?>
</textarea>

But thanks for the help.

Hi,
I work with Winows98 , and I want to make my system
a really server.I have two questions :
1}What component I should install on my system to
make it a really server ? IIS3 ? or IIS4 ?
2)Where can I get this component (IIS3 or IIS4
for Windows98) ?
Thanks a lot

To use IIS you need NT or windows 2000. If you really want to use win98, use
Personal Web Server instead.

Hi everybody
I'a having some little problem configuring qmail, I'm not sure if it is
qmail who not well configure but all the message I'm trying to send does'nt
appear anywhere. My PHP code is returning me 1 as response when I call the
mail() fonction, so I believe that PHP did process the function.
I did the usual INSTALL procedure that is give with QMAIL but nothing
append. Did someone did have this problem or did configure qmail right???
Thanks in advance

I'm trying to run some SQL in Oracle that returns a single value...
$sql_getID = "SELECT max(CUSTID_NUM) from cfull2.tbl_dl_customers";
how the hell do I get that number into a variable?
I've tried a dozen different things, but the documentation is so sparse and
it's all about getting rows of data...
$stmt_getID = OCIParse ( $connection , $sql_getID );
OCIExecute ( $stmt_getID , OCI_DEFAULT );
$Max_ID = 1;
echo "Max_ID (check1) = $Max_ID <br />\n"; //echoes 1
while (OCIFetchInto($stmt_getID, $row, OCI_ASSOC)) {
$Max_ID = $row[CUSTID_NUM];
echo "Max_ID (check2) = $Max_ID <br />\n"; //echoes
nothing
}
$Max_ID++;
echo "Max_ID (check3) = $Max_ID <br />\n"; // echoes 1
This WHILE statement is just the last thing I've tried... All I want to do
is put the result of the SQL line above in to a variable....
Thanks in advance all

Do this :
$Requete = "SELECT max(CUSTID_NUM) MAX_ID from cfull2.tbl_dl_customers";
OCIDefineByName($Requete, "MAX_ID", &$Max_Id);
OCIExecute($Requete, OCI_DEFAULT);
while (OCIFetch($Requete))
{
echo $Max_Id;
}
the While is not necessary here cause your query send only one row...
if (OCIFetch($Requete))
{
echo Max_Id;
}
is better !

It appears to me that PHP.EXE keeps General Protection Faulting rather than
reporting the error message to me. Things such as doing
str_repeat("blah", -123) do GPF occasionally, rather than report a txt msg.
Do other people have this problem ?
It happens only when I'm working on a rather large project (several 1000
lines of code), which has many included files, I assume that has something
to do with it.
On IIS5, or Apache (v .14) with CGI PHP v4.0.3pl1, on Windows 2000. No
changes have been made to php.ini other than to the sendmail directives :)

Hello Siggy,

Hello,
I've already installed PHP 4.0.4 on my PWS 4.0
But when I ran my homepage (default.php) on IE 4.0, it said "A device

Anybody know how to fix it ?

Subject: [PHP-WIN] A question
I am now learning PHP,I have already installed it,and have modified
the 'httped.conf'in Apache.But when I run 'apache.exe',it didn't work.I
checked it in Ms-dos,it said:
'APACHE.EXE:cannot determine local host name.
Use the SeverName directive to set it manually.'
I think i shouldn't do some local area network setup, and I have
checked the directory: 'c:\windows\hosts.sam' ,it was all
right.'localhost 127.0.0.1',<--is that right? Do I have to install
'Dcom95.exe'?
So I need some help.Can you help me? Thank you very much!
