[PHP] non-blocking sockets + newbie compile question

1) socket_set_blocking()... what the devil's up with this? *I* get socket_set_blocking(): supplied resource is not a valid stream resource, which is obviously a lie, since I can connect to the server program and socket_recv and socket_send both work. I'm using PHP 4.3.1 (cgi) 2) I figured I'd

RE: [PHP] Re: PHP & XML

I still wouldn't use XML for this. I mean, all the articles are in the database, and I'm already using PHP to pull them out and format them into html, right? I can just as easily use PHP to put them into all those other formats. So again, why waste time with XML unless I need to feed these ar

Re: [PHP] CC Processing Merchants

[PHP] Curl request works on command line but not in script

Hi folks, I'm trying to send an XML request to a server to get its response back... I can get it to work on the command line (with passthru) but not with libcurl. I'm using libcurl 7.9.2 which may actually be different from the curl on the command line... the latter came with OS X, the former

[PHP] shtml & php in the same file?

I'm working on this site that is all shtml files... in order to add some dynamic content, it just includes php scripts in different places. However, sessions don't work unless you start it before outputting anything to the server and that's what's needed now... I don't want to change all the l
