Actually, you could use explodo or split and reorder the pieces:
from the docs:
$date = "04/30/1973"; // Delimiters may be slash, dot, or hyphen
list ($month, $day, $year) = split ('[/.-]', $date);
echo "Month: $month; Day: $day; Year: $year<br>\n";

How is it possible to create web services in Windows NT4 using open source
;) ?
perhaps i could create a web service to print PDF files and output my
what-to-print to it in that format ...
perhaps :
network/atatched printers <- PDF <- server web service
<- XML <- PHP /
client

If you're willing to do a bit of work, you can do a workable solution.
I'm assuming that PHP is running on a Windows server.
You can use the Windows printer functions if the printer was connected
directly. If not, you can still get it to work. The Windows Scripting
Host resources give you a few ways. A kludgy way would be to configure
IE on the printer machine (since it's almost surely installed) to not
show the header and footers. You can use the WSH functions to open a
non-visible IE instance and issue the print command from there. WSH also
has functions in it's COM objects for mapping network printers, etc so
you could customize your own server's IE config and print to a mapped
printer. Lots of ways to skin this cat, but they're all messy.

All I have to do now is add the drive path up to the web directory to

Thanks again! Easier than I could have hoped for.

Have you tried just changing '/acc/includes/headstart.htm' to
'c:/acc/includes/headstart.htm'? i.e. leaving the unix style slashes in
place...
There is a nasty bug in the latest versions of PHP on Win32 affecting
the
include statement with absolute paths.
The above is a workaround solution - once the bug is fixed you should
be
able to remove the 'c:' stuff.
HIW!

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Mixing include path styles. How do I do this???
We recently switched from Netscape Enterprise to IIS and I now need to
make a lot of changes to over 600 htmls - mostly in include statements.
We're doing two things here, switching servers and switching all our
SSI's to PHP includes.
Under Enterprise, I could define a path just by putting it into the
include from the root, ie:
<!--#include virtual="/acc/includes/headstart.htm"-->
I used a global Find and Replace app to change all these (each html has
about eight includes) to:
<? include '/acc/includes/headstart.htm'; ?>
and now they don't work. If I replace the whole path with a Windows
path structure (C:\...) to the included file, it does work.
Here's the problem as I see it. I can easily do another Find and
Replace to add in the first part of the directory tree to the web
directory. What I cannot easily do is change the "/" to "\" inside the
path for the part of the path that's already there.
Is there some way to define the path to the web directory using "\",
maybe in a variable and then somehow/way switch over to "/" so I don't
have to mess with the paths I already have?
Or maybe there's a solution I'm not even aware of. Thank you.

--- Begin Message ---Hi there,
I thought I'd just drop a note with some advice that might be of use to you all. I am running some command line scripts which activate Cognos Impromptu via the COM interface.
We are activating these scripts via scheduled tasks on a Windows 2000 server. We found that the COM interface would work when the scripts were run by the user, but when run by scheduled tasks - the COM part of the script failed.
We checked everything we could think of - permissions on program directories ... log on settings ... local admin settings ... security fields and could find no problem.
Finally - we found the problem in the "Component Services" screen. You will find that there are two default permission settings on the "computer" object. If the user running the task (specifically when running a scheduled task) does not have permission to launch or access the com object - it will fail.
Anyway - it might save someone a bit of time in the future!
Cheers,
Michael.

--- Begin Message --- Hello all,
Running PHP on IIS WIN2k. Have a strange situation which is confusing the heck out of me. I read a very interesting article about accessing the Google API via NuSoap http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/GoogleAPI/page1.html . Looked simple enough, a bit of cut and paste .. at most some tweaking ... A week later and several conversations with a german developer who doesnt speak very good english and I am starting to get a tad frustrated.
My problem is (which the nuSoap developer cant seem to understand) that I am stuck inside a firewall. To send or receive http requests I need to do so through a proxy server (no control over it). This requires username/password authentication. If i just want to do a http request through CURL i would use ...
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_PROXY,"http://proxy.utas.edu.au:8080";);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD,"MYusername,MYpassword");
HOWEVER using the nuSoap implimentation I cannot access the GOOGLE API or any other WSDL feed for that matter as it doesnt have a proxy feature. I tried tweaking the code to add my proxy settings to no avail ... Am I missing something? Is it impossible to do a WSDL request via a proxy server?
has ANYONE managed to get the google API running from a WIN2K box?
cheers
Brendan.

I am trying to open up a remote text file, parse the file, and output the parsed text as html. As of now I can open the file read characters into a buffer and then output them as html. My problem is with parsing the buffer to get to the text I want to output. Should I read the entire file into an array? Then output the parts of the array I want to show?
