Yes, on a Unix machine you can run a cron job (not sure how to do that
since I don't use Unix, maybe someone can fill him in) or on windows
2000 you can insert a new task into the scheduler and just have it link
to Internet Explorer and then the web page like this:
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
http://www.yoursite.com/script.php

Another option is the "at" command
I don't remember the syntax but from a command window just type in
at help
or
at /?
or
at ?
One of those should get you the help listing which will tell you the
syntax, on windows the "at command" is the same thing as Cron in Unix

Problem 1: Solved!
Problem 2: Two good suggestions. If you find yet more stuff - send it. I am
still interested in codesnippets / tutorials.
Thanks all who responded!

I don't know about the rest of the people in here, but i could need some more
information.
..."migrating from a unix server" - To what? M$ or linux?
If you use the ISAPI extension i suppose this is a M$ system (Windows 2000, 98,
95), correct?
Secondly, by default i think that php only parses pages that have the extension
.php even thou they may contain HTML, PHP or a combination of both.
How did you do when you installed PHP?
If you followed some guide / tutorial - could you give a link to it?
..."but a view source shows ascii gibberish" - Might be interesting to see a
bit ot that output. It could give some clues.
I have *no* experience on using the PHP ISAPI (running CGI myself) so i am
afraid i can't help you with any installation tips.
Are the files that work / don't work:
Located in different directorys?
Do they have different extensions?
Do they contain the same <?PHP ?> start and end tags?

In your server config file, edit
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3 .php .php4 .htm .html
and remove any other MIME mappings for .htm or .html. Voila - you just told
your server that all .html files should be processed as PHP.
If you have some .html files that don't need preprocessing, I've heard of
people running two servers on different ports - Apache for all the files
that need processing and something small and fast like OmniHttpd to serve
static files and images. Can anyone give advice about this?

Hi
Have you tested it on more than one client/browser?
I dunno if it helps, but I've read there's a bug in IIS and cookies (I'm not
all that into IIS myself)
Look at:

I don't know anything about apache - and i suppose that this don't have anything
to do with your error, but shouldn't the php/html files be located in your
"webroot" dir?

Add
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php3 .php .php4
LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/sapi/php4apache.dll"
to your httpd.conf.
Remove
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
This will tell apache to load the module version
of php. Unless you want the cgi version.
This works with my setup (2k, apache 1.3.19, php4.0.5)

I am using PHP3.
I would like users to be able to download Power Point
files from my site.
As these files are big, I would like :
- to propose to the user a "Save as" button (I don't want
the power point file to open)
- to display a download progress bar.
Anybody has an idea ?
Thank you.
Pierre

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Spell checking w. PHP in Windows
I have been looking for a while for a way to supply spell checking to the
users of my submit forms, and stumbled accross the tutorial at Zend
Technologies (http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/spellchecking.php?print=1)
dealing with this, utilizing the Aspell/Pspell modules.
Now, this is all dandy, but I have not been able to find any info what so
ever on how to accomplish this on the Windows platform. So my question is,
does anyone know how to make this work on a WinNT system, and (preferably)
where to obtaion the needed modules?
I thank you in advance for your time :)

I thought this was a PHP mailing list, not a Pspell mailing list!
I have seen all kinds of special interest questions and MySQL
questions that do not pertain directly to PHP. People learn to
put a few HTML tags in a txt doc and call themselves "web programmers".
If you do not know anything about RDBMS then why are you messing with
it?
Keep it real.
(Keep it PHP)
thanks
