[PHP] HELP with ODBC Connection

[Daniel]

Please help. I have a basic scipt:

$connection_id=odbc_connect("$DSN","$user","$pass");
$sql="select * from whatever";
$stmt=odbc_prepare($connection_id,$sql);
$result=odbc_execute($connection_id,$stmt);

this script used to work on RH-7.3 with php-4.1.2
the script will not work anymore when i installed RH-8 using php-4.2.2
the connection IS successful, but when i try anything after that i get this
error:

Warning: SQL error: [unixODBC][IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Error in host
server data stream., SQL state S1000 in SQLPrepare

i can connect,prepare and execute statements from c++ so it must be php
specific?
please help!!

RE: [PHP] More array syntax

[daniel]

here is a tricky question , as i've probably said work is still using php3 and 
mysql 3.22 which has no random select function , and the only way i can 
randomise results is place them into an array and use shuffle , although 
shuffle will not randomise on a two dimensional array , how can i get this to 
work in php3 i have to call the microtime seed function first before shuffle 
it works for one dimensional arrays?

[PHP] preg_replace question,

yes another one sorry, i'm trying to find the most efficient way to do a 
replactment over this 
eregi_replace("\[f$key\f\]","$value",format_content($content));, would 
preg_replace be quicker and how could i go about it ?

i'd need to replace [f1247f] with its replacement value better still maybe 
even [1313431] is needed ? i dont know why they has f's in there ?

RE: [PHP] preg_replace question,

[daniel]

the current function been put in place replaces [f1253f] with a file, for 
inside cms content , where 1253 is the key or the id of the filename in the 
database , therefore to denote its an ftool they added f's around the keys , 
so maybe i could get away with [1253], what else i'm asking if preg_replace is 
more efficient over eregi_replace ?

Re: [PHP] splitting content into pages

[daniel]

your example doesnt work , and the whole purpose of this is because the
background image wraps if there is too much text , i'm also trying to
figure out of leaving it this way and add a few page breaks at the certain
length so the text doesnt go over the dark edge as u cant see it any ideas ?

$array = explode("\r\n", $content);
$maxline = count($array);
if ($maxline > $limit) {
$max = $maxline - 1;
$page ? $page = $page : $page = 1;
$page ? $next = $limit * ($page - 1) + 1 : $next =
1;
$s=$next+$limit;
for ($i=$next; $i<$s; $i++) {
if ($array[$i]!="") $formatted_content .=
$array[$i]."\n\n";

ok apologies i went a bit far there , but you know what i mean , it terms
of a wasted post he/she should say that offlist i reckon then the poster
can problem reverify him/her self with a better question.

but i've had stuff like i dont understand anything u just said , something
on those lines , maybe something like can you please rephrase your question
might be better.

i dont think in particular this is what the list is about and i am not
implying this , i usually head str8 to php.net then to google then to the
list, most of my issues that i ask are regex related and even then, i dont
get an exact answer it merely leads me into the right direction where i can
modify the example to do what i need it to do

yeh ok we've had stuff like 'is there a script out there that does this', a
trip to hotscripts first should have helped them out , but from the time
i've started here i dont think there has been any guidelines set on this ,
and even then , i dont think ppl will read them :\

[PHP] dbx

[daniel]

hi there , i am interested to know more about dbx, especially the error
handling

$link   = dbx_connect(DBX_MYSQL, "localhost", "db", "username", "password")
or die ("Could not connect");

is there such an error feature where it can die to the screen with a custom
error message instead of doing the error checking for every single query
and connection ?

and there is also no example of how to get a list of results like

while ($row = $result->fetchRow()) {

}

[PHP] project management php system

[daniel]

Hi guys ok i am doing it now, but i'm not asking for you to code something
for me, i'm looking for a classy project management system possibly in an
open source format in PHP and Mysql.

I was wondering who has implemented such a system they could recommend, i
am investigation to look into customising an already developed system or we
have to develop one from scratch to suit our needs.

Let me know.

Thanks

Dan

That kind of thinking leads to things like Hitler :| If we never say
anything then it becomes the norm for people to continue their
behaviour. Currently the question being debated is what constitutes
poor behaviour/etiquette within this mailing list. While I agree that
this forum is primarily for answering questions -- I disagree that it
is for answering silly little questions that would be common
knowledge if the asker had bothered to read any tutorials or
documentation -- most especially when it appears that the poster
didn't even bother to do any kind of searching for themselves. I mean
really, questions like "does X do Y" is often as simple as writing 1
to 5 lines of test code which is probably shorter than the email
itself and doesn't pollute the mailing list with 5 to 10 replies of
"yes" or "no".

Cheers,
Rob.

Re: [PHP] Display Records in Multiple Pages help please !

a sample from my db class, i had to store the total in a session as calling
the total on every page on a large database was painful doing count(*) or
even SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS, on a small database u just cant tell but on a
database of 100k + it was painful to load each page ;)

function page_query($per_page, $query, $page, $session_var, $debug = null,
$start_session = null) {
if ($start_session) session_start();
if(!$page) {
$this->page = 1;
$this->start = 0;
} else {
$this->page = $page;
$this->start = ($this->page - 1) * $per_page;
}

if ((!$page && !$_SESSION[''.$session_var.'']) || (!

$query = preg_replace("/SELECT|select/","\\0

[PHP] dynamically splitting a paragraph for a preview of content

[daniel]

hi guys , i assumed i had this working but i stand corrected, it basically 
will get the first dot in content which should denote a end of paragraph and 
show that as a preview, although say i put g.w bush in it will split off there 
which i dont want , is there a way i can do this with a paragraph that may 
look like this

rweqijr riopjwrpioqwrj pqwrojrqwiopj rqwpjwrio oqrwqwriojwqijwroij. iojwrqioj

where the dot and space should denote a paragraph or

rweqijr riopjwrpioqwrj pqwrojrqwiopj rqwpjwrio oqrwqwriojwqijwroij ojwrqioj.

wejkqwqwpokwrop rqpokqwopr poqwrkp oqwrkw

where the newline should denote a pagraph, let me know thanks.

function create_caption($content,$max_length,$primaryID,$ID) {
if (strlen($content) > $max_length) {
$paragraph_i=".";
$position=strpos($content,$paragraph_i);
if (is_integer($position)) {
$preview=substr($content,0,$position);
$preview.="  [

umm nl2br doesnt work most the time ,

"nl2br --  Inserts HTML line breaks before all newlines in a string "

sorry to give a wrong example this is for splitting your content into 
paragraphs obviously where there is a break in the content like so

efwojeiowerjwetwpjwewoj

eioptejoiejiojtei

it wont br every bloody newline ! which doesnt give good results all the time

RE: [PHP] upload question

[daniel]

there is no indication what exactly you want to know , its too ambiguous , but 
all i can say this book sounds like a dud, terrible explanation on file 
uploads, check out this pear package, it helped a great deal ,although i had 
to mod it to also do a check for mimetypes , as say i allowed only the 
extension types of jpg , or zip , i could rename an executable file to a jpg 
or zip and maybe it could be executed , anyway i had to mod it to also do a 
mime types allow check but anyway check it out 
http://pear.php.net/package-info.php?pacid=20

also do a print_r($_FILES); this will show u what you may need to know

here is a version i did which is a heavily modified version ,

mshtml style of the dhtml editor , the buggy ativex versions are now non 
compliant so i should do some upgrading :D

RE: [PHP] Is there a PHP for Dummies?

[daniel]

i can honestly say when i was a newbie , browsing other peoples code , and 
also especially the pear packages helped me formulate my own style , in 
particular , the pear packages helped alot to understand the structure and how 
to build classes properly , and phpdocs helped to understand a standardised 
and forumlated way to document code properly.
