Hello Tim
I am using PHP 4.2.2 on Win98 for eval and I have encountered problems with
extension_dir
too. Basically it comes to that:
PHP is not yet consistent in the usage and basing of relative pathnames in the
different
contexts (extensions, session_save, ...). In addition, absolute pathnames don't always
work.
There are differences in that between 4.2.2 and 4.3.
I am interested in that because I want to have an "tentative update" strategy with
parallel
installations of more than one version of PHP on my machine. At its best i want to
change
a folder name and copy php.ini to switch from one version to another.
So I refuse to put anything in %WINDIR% or %WINSYSDIR%.
That leaves two locations necessary for php.ini:
- the folder with the current PHP inst (for CLI and CGI operation)
- the folder with (in my case) the Apache (more general: Webserver) inst (for SAPI
mode operation)
This is because PHP.INI is looked for (among other loc) in the folder of the primary
executable.
This is PHP in CGI and CLI modes and the Webserver in SAPI mode. "C:\php4" is a special
case in that it is hardcoded in PHP as the perferred location for the PHP inst.
<rant> I find that imposing and interfering </rant>.
Now at least some relative pathnames in PHP.INI are based on the location of PHP.INI
itself,
especially "extension_dir".
So, to have all things at hand I install:
<drive>:\<Program Files>\WebDev\
and below that I have the folders
- "PHP-x.y.z>" (possibly more than one) with subfolder "extensions"
- "Apache" with a copy of the current PHP.INI
- "PHP" (the current PHP, copied or renamed out of PHP-x.y.z)
My PHP.INI states relative pathnames in the form "..\PHP\folder for any purpose".
This way it works for 4.2.2 and 4.3 SAPI, CGI and CLI. All this is strictly for dev
purpose
and possibly invalid under security restrictions ( namely ..\<any folder> as a folder
spec in safe mode).

Header-Location is simply what your browser will go to. So, if that link
pasted into the address bar of the browser works - header works too.
Perhaps the protocol is not available for you - that could be the reason.
mms: is supposed to launch some application and things get a bit dirty.

Hi everyone,
subject's allready my question ! I want to echo something like : "<form
action = \",?php echo $PHP_SELF ?> \" >" so that the action becomes <?
echo $PHP_SELF ?> !! But I can't figure out how to escape ?> so that the
interpreter doesn't take it as the end of the script ! Any idea ?

you want to do this:
echo "<form action=\"<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>\">"; right?
consider this: echo "<form action=\"$PHP_SELF\">";

Try
echo '<form action="', '<', '?', 'php echo $PHP_SELF', '?', '>', '">';
This should work (untested)

Ernest, your solution is quite correct, I write lots of scripts that "write
scripts" and it works fine. just concatenate little strings together
"<"."?"."php" and "?".">" pretty much as you suggested to Philipp.
If you have a really sick and twisted mind you can create functions that do
this in combination with $$ variable variables for some very interesting
effects but after a while your friends will start crossing over to the other
side of the road when they see you coming. If these functions write the
scripts to disk for later execution you are entering the realms of self
modifying code, or software that "learns". PHP has to be THE perfect
language to experiment in this area with, surely.

Actually, you don't even have to concatenate them at all. Just treat <?
as a string and that is it:
eg:
<?
echo '<? echo "hello world"; ?>';
?>
will output you:
--
<? echo "hello world"; ?>
--
without any parse errors.

Maybe I don't understand... but,
echo "<form action=\"<? echo \$PHP_SELF ?>\" >";

If you're trying to get a LITERAL ?> Use > for your > symbol so that

?>
I also noticed you didn't have a <? at the beginning of your string, so
use <? for that.
Does this help?

The php_value only works when php is added in apache as a Module not as
Intrepruter.
Please check it as who php is added as Module or php.exe

Prachait,
You were like Ronaldo, player of Brazilian soccer that
acts in the Real Madri of the Espanish: you made a
great goal!
Thanks very much for this help me!
Next, I write a step-by-step explaining how I solved
my problem. I believe that this procedure can help
other users.
I solve the problem adding php as a Module of Apache.
Once PHP 4.2.3 is incompatible with the Apache 2.0.43,
due to a bug in php4apache2.dll, I made the following,
to solve this problem:
First, I downloaded the php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip
from
http://ftp.proventum.net/pub/php/win32-snapshots/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip
Unzip it and extract the php4apache2.dll (only it) in
the directory C:\php\sapi
Replace it, if necessary.
Insert the two lines
LoadModule php4_module c:phpsapiphp4apache2.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
at the end of httpd.conf file.
Notes:
1. Apache 2.x for win32 is sensitive to "\" and "/".
2. I tested it in Win2K Workstation, Apache 2.0.43,
PHP 4.2.3, and MySQL 3.23.52.
I don't guarantee that this will solve other problems
similar to mine. Follow this example for his/her bill
and risk.
Jaboticabal-SP, Brazil, November, 8, 2002.
I am sorry, but my english is not good.

Do you had successed to parse the external parameters entities with Expat?
If yes, could you explain me how you make it work?
