Subject: print problem
Hi
Is there any way to set the page properties of browser by javascript
before call 'windows.print();', such as size, direction...
See my post just prior to yours ! PS there was an omitted } in the @ media
declaration :
It should have read
@media print {
/* .... css print media styles here */
}
Basically some of the components are supported by most browsers, some are
IE specific. Look to these URLS for info :
http://www.richinstyle.com/test/paged/ and
http://www.aboutbabette.com/css/media.html
Cheers,
Neil Smith.

Hi
This is for PDFLIB, but notice the Content-length header. This I know to
work on IE.
$data = pdf_get_buffer($pdf);
header("Content-type: application/pdf");
header("Content-disposition: inline; filename=test.pdf");
header("Content-length: " . strlen($data));
echo $data;

Is it a problem if I ask you to explain a little more about your work
around? Because I do not understand your idea completely. How do you manage
multiple documents? because you tell me that what I do want is to make a
file and then refer to it from a html link, If I dont get the wrong idea...

Hi guys,
I'm writing a web server for Windows. I want to know how to make it support
PHP.
Here's the easy bit (which I know how to do)...
1) A client requests a web page called "anything.php"
2) The server notices the extension ".php", looks this up in the server's
configuration settings, and says "Aha - this is a PHP script".
3) The server runs the PHP script, and sends the output stream back to the
client.
Here's the bit I _DON'T_ know how to do...
How the hell can my server INITIALISE the superglobal variables $_GET,
$_POST, $_SERVER, $_SESSION, etc. in preparation for running the script?
... I mean, it's an easy enough matter to call:
system("php something.php")
to run a PHP script ... but that won't initialise the superglobal variables.
There doesn't appear to be a command line parameter to php.exe that lets you
specify this information. So how's it done? How do other web servers do it?
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Jill

Why would you do a system("php something.php")? Just put the code in the
php file and you're good to go.
i.e.
<httproot>/something.php contains:
<?php
echo $_POST['var']; // if post
echo $_GET['var']; // if get
//etc etc etc.. no need to have php call another php script...
?>
-Dash
I can't understand it. I can't even understand the people who can
understand it.

How can my server INITIALISE the superglobal variables $_GET,
$_POST, $_SERVER, $_SESSION, etc. in preparation for running the script?
In the binary distribution of PHP for Windows, there is a file called
php4ts.dll. You will need to link your web server to this DLL. It
contains the PHP interpreter. This is the way other SAPI (Server API)
implementations work.
Get the PHP source code, if you don't have it already, and unpack it to
a directory of your choice. In the php-4.3.0 (or whatever) directory,
look in the sapi directory for examples about how PHP interacts with
Apache, ISAPI and other web server extensions. I have done something
similar to what you are doing so you may email me politely (i.e. without
using profane/blasphemous language) if you have any other questions.

Wow! I've only been on this mailing list for about half a hour, and I've
only sent two emails (this is the third). What kind of a reputation do I
have already? And how did I get it? Do you know something I don't? Why
should anyone assume I would ever be anything other than polite?
Should I just quit before this newly acquired reputation becomes my undoing?

Hi!
I'm trying to do something that might not be so very kind if it wasn't known
by those I'm targeting at. ;)
Anyway, I would like to retrive the content of a file I link to using a
querystring like this:
http://www.thebook.dk/showvers.jsp?visaverser=1%20mos+2%3A10 ... Can this be
done? I don't want the page to be opened, but get the information from it
back to me and then extract some of it's content...
btw, %20 is a space character but what is %3A?

Hi!
I need to find the first occurence of a '>' that isn't followed by a '<' or
a '&' in a string and then use the index to extract a substring... How do I
do this?
Anyone?

within a do while loop, check for a '>' with the strpos() function
if the next character isn`t a < or a & then you have found the spot to start
extracting from, otherwise...
jettison all of the string up to and including the found '>' with the
substr() function and repeat the process (loop) on the remainder of the
string. The loop quits when you have either found the spot or you run out
of string.
Please note I haven`t checked the above code for syntax errors.

Look at this:
from the book:
do
{
echo'<br><br>$Auto[$Count]";
$CheckEmpty = "Auto[$Count]";
$Count = $Count + 1;
}
while ($CheckEmpty!="");
if ($Count == 1) echo "Not Applicable";
my attempt to change it:
<?php
$Count=0;
echo "Your cars are:";
do
{
echo"<br><br>$_GET["Auto"][$Count]";
$CheckEmpty = "$_GET["Auto"][$Count]";
$Count = $Count+1;
}
while ($CheckEmpty!="");
if ($Count==1) echo "Not Applicable";
?>
How do you do a double {}?
$_GET because of the GET call
$_GET["Auto"] this is right, right?
but then what with the [$Count}?
Can I do this: $_GET["Auto"[$Count]]";
How do you write an array in an array in a Global Variable place holder?
That doesnt seem possible?

I just created a simple html form and a .php file as a test to be sure php is working
right. All I want the form to do is test the echo construct (which prints the text
between the opening and closing php tags) to be sure my php interpreter is working
right.
The line in my html form used to identify the method looks like this:
<form action="processorder.php" method=post>
The line in my html form used to trigger the submit button looks like this:
<input type=submit value="Submit Order">
The code in my php file called processorder.php looks like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Seans Designs - Order Results</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Seans products</h1>
<h2>Order Results</h2>
<?
echo "<p>Order processed.";
?>
</body>
</html>
The problem is when I hit the submit button on my form, I see all the text accept for
the text Order processed which is contained in the php tag. In other words, its as if
the echo construct is being completely ignored. I think the problem has something to
do with the register_globals=on or off thing. So, I changed the setting from off
(which was the default setting) to on and restarted apache. No joy!
Is there something in the code that I need to change?
thanks
