Hi, I've decided it's time to take PHP5 for a spin, but all the hosts I use are still only on PHP4, so I need to keep PHP4 running and operational on my dev box. My dev environment is a Windows XP Pro Machine with Apache 1.3.33 and PHP 4.4.0 I'm sure many of you have PHP4 and PHP5 running on a Windows Box with Apache

I have a page with a form on it in which I have a series of input fields like so (note the sub-scripted name): <input type='text' name='rating' value='1'> <input type='text' name='rating' value='2'> <input type='text' name='rating' value='3'> How do I retrieve the submitted values in a PHP script? For example, just trying to echo the...

I'm trying to create a PHP script to send mail to a list of addresses. I'm sending mail okay, because the messages arrive in an account that I can check, but messages to a known bad address aren't being bounced back to the sending address. Here's the line of code I'm using: $mailok = mail("me@goodaddress.com,me@badaddress.com","this is a...

Hi, I trying to process an XML file using a XSL but am getting a Sablotron error ("...mismatched tag") when I entered an accented letter such as "é". I tried to play around with the encoding and am currently using UTF-8. When I process my XML file using XMLSpy the ouput is fine (the é letter is properly displayed), which leads me to...

Hello all. I have a question about what you all get paid, and what I should expect in my situation. I googled quite a bit, but not come up with any benchmarks definite enough that I would want to approach my employer with, so I figured I would check with you, since presumably at least some of you do this for money. I have been with a...

I created a form page with HTTP Authentication that works with a MySQL backend. In addition to a username and password, there is a 3rd field tied to each entry. For example: username: 1111 password: 2222 firstname: John So, when the user enters the u and p, the name 'John' will show up as an input value in a form that will be submitted.

Hi guys, I'm playing with snoopy and am stuck on doing two calls in the same script. The second call revisits a website after getting an existing link based on the results of the first call ... If I hard code the URL, then everything is fine. It's this line that goes wrong "$newsnoopy->fetchtext($newurl);" ... If I put...

Hi everyone, I was trying to use a script called PHPrint, but I think the reason it's not working is because I have register globals off. This decision is not under my control, and I am not really much of a programmer, so I was wondering if someone would be willing to edit the PHPrint script for me. the script can be found here:

Hi, I'm very new to php. In my current code I'd like to bind variables to the values of a simply (only indexed by numbers http://www.php-center.de/en-html-manual/language.types.array.html]) array. Of course I noticed the function extract(), but this works on string indices. So I had the following idea: <?PHP function abind($array,...

Hello all, I have googled every thing that I can think of but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. What I need is a daily log system for system administrators. It needs to be able to support multiple groups (ie Unix Admins, DBAs, etc). It would be used by system administrators and shift teams to log events, problems, status, etc. ...

hi all, i cant find php.ini in upgraded php from 4.3.7 ?!?!? where the hell is it ? the prefix is new but there is no lib directory /usr/local/php-4.4.0/

I've created my own function for error handling using set_error_handler(). My problem is that, when using copy() to copy files, I can't suppress system's error messages. So when I'm trying to copy a file that does not exist I get two error messages: mine and system's. I've tried the @ operator with no luck: @copy(...) Apart from adding...

I'm re-writing a CMS system for my site and one of the features we were very pleased with in the old *Nuke system was the Autolinks module. Basically, the table for autolinks contained this sort of data: text: BBC url: http://www.bbc.co.uk Simple stuff; every time we entered the term BBC into our news posts, it would autolink it like...

Can someone please explain to me how I can check (in my PHP script) whether a user input is a number or not? I thought it would be as simple as: if(is_nan($myinputfield)){ then do something } but that doesn't seem to work. The PHP docs say that the value being passed to the is_nan function is

Hi, I'm trying to compile php5 for apache2. When I try to load the php module I get an undefined symbol: _zend_list_delete error in libphp5.so. When I use objdump and look inside libphp5.so I see all the zend* functions are undefined. What did I forget to do?

the code is used for repost $HTTP_POST_VARS from a form to the insert page at the "preview" page <?php /* Re-Post all POST'ed variables */ reset($HTTP_POST_VARS); while (list($key, $value) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)) { if (!is_array($HTTP_POST_VARS)) { echo tep_draw_hidden_field($key, htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($value)));

Hi, I know how to send a file as an attachment when the file is in my file system. Now I want to send data as attachment without saving it to the filesystem first. Under UNIX shell what I do is uuencode and dump the output at the end of the 'data' part of the message.

I have an ASP.NET service that needs to be consumed on a PHP page. I can not count on the PHP server to have SOAP. I have read some info about a REST method, but I am not really sure if this can be applicable. Help please!!!! Matt

I thought I would contribute a solution for once. We have a standard SUSE LAMP (Linux Apache Mysql PHP) server running some custom apps, of which one component is dumping reports out to excel. We are running this with https and all was good for a few months. IE6 and Firefox worked fine. One day around the end of July 2005, IE6 stops...

When I execute the following script I can connect using 'mysqli_connect' but I get a "DB Error: Not Found" when I display the $db->Message() after attempting the DB::Connect. And, "yes", the "restaurant" database does exist. Where should I start looking? PHP 5.0.4 / mySQL 4.1.13-nt / IIS / XP Pro
