Hello. I have two questions regarding the PHPDocumentor package: 1] Is it possible to add the html-output of phpdocumentor to existing output of the program?

Hi all, Quick question... I am storing jpegs as blobs in a mysql table, which is fine on my live server because I am just uploading them using phpmyadmin (I am working with a small number of images that will rarely change and thus do not have a need for an upload script). My problem is I do all my testing on my local host where I do not...

Hello, I know three ways to pass variables form one page to another. The first one is to declare and set session variable. In this case if one goes to another page (by clicking on hyperlink or pressing a button) value of a session variable will be automatically seen on the new page. The second way is to set hidden variables in the form and...

I tried mod_perl. It is too troublesome. Many old scripts stopped running. Even those running eat memory like crazy. I wonder why mod_php does not have the problems in mod_perl, such as memory hog, varible initialization etc. Is there a way to use Perl scripts at the same speed of PHP without worrying about those clearing varibles etc in...

I have a script which parses the BBC RSS feed once an hour, and drops any stories with certain keywords into a database. I would like to ban certain strings; at the moment the script will pick up the word "train" but also "training"; this is giving me a lot of false positives. Can anyone assist? I tried a couple of things but nothing that...

Q: How should I handle file upload? A: File uploading requires HTML form of content type "multipart/form-data". The file content has to be POSTed/submitted via the form and once the file is uploaded, it will be available at the "upload_tmp_dir" (usually /tmp) directory. Then you may move that file to another directory using...

Folks, I could do some basic regular expressions (which I picked up from sed, in unix) but I'm afraid its been a while. I'm wondering if someone could help out. I basically want to check that a string variable contains only alphanumeric characters, in addition check for the underscore. No decimal point check is required, and it should be...

Is there a way to make a text link post to a form without passing all the parameters in the url? The urls tend to get very long and messy. I often wonder if there is a limit to how long they can get?

I installed PHP5, Apache2 and OpenSSL on my Debian woody server. Everything seems to have installed fine without any complaints. I can bring up my .php test page fine on the ssl https. But when I try to bring it http up on port 80 I get the download-a-document and what-do-you-want-to-open-it with dialogue box, as if there is no PHP on the...

I have a form with drop down menus to query for name, month, and year to capture activity accordingly by an individual for a given month and given year. But I'd like to also be able to query ALL individiduals for a given month and year OR an individual for the whole year for example. My question, is there any way to have blank (not filled...

i can't seem to get the "ssh2_exec" function working on Windows XP. the example in the manual (which is obviously linux biased) says: ssh2_exec($connection, '/usr/local/bin/php -i'); i have tried the windows equivalent: ssh2_exec($connection, 'c:\php\php.exe c:\some_file.php'); .... along with many other variations, but nothing seems...

I've written a simple e-newsletter app using the PHP mail() command. I want to be able to deal with bounce-backs if a member's email is no longer working or is using an old account. I'm using a Red Hat Linux server with Sendmail and Apache. I've seen mention of using Procmail or filtering mail to a certain account through a PHP script, but,...

My Dynamic variables print out, same as strings but aren't the same. They are not correct when using them as DB.connection vars. I was using my own routine, that read in string values from a config file, that had entries like host=localhost etc, etc. After reading, I used explode with "=" as a separator,... then finally created some...

howdy, I am using this code library thing: http://sourceforge.net/projects/php-csl/ http://www.php-csl.com/snippets/ and had an idea. I was thinking about keeping a bunch of functions in the root dir of my server, so I can re-use my code from any of my websites without having to copy each func or code into the current site that i’m...

How do I emulate perl’s crypt function. I found a pear module here: http://pear.php.net/package/Crypt_CBC/docs/0.3/Crypt/Crypt_CBC.html but it seems to only take one...

I killed last night and a good chunk of today trying to figure out this one particular attempt to get a class and initialize it. My code is using a class method called getObject to include() a file and then initialize the class in that file (one class per file, each file has the same name as the class). This code has been working fine for 8...
