Message from Gilles Ganault Most recent post: 10/28/2007 8 authors and 14 replies. Hello I have been googling for a couple of hours, but still have not found what I need: - really simple PHP-based image gallery software. Ideally, just a single file that I just drop into a directory filled with JPG files - uses eg. GD to generate thumbnails automagically, and saves them into a sub-directory for the next time (I do not want thumbnails to be regenerated every time someone views the pictures) - as an option, supports slideshow - free/open-source Any good recommendation? Thank you. read more about Simple image gallery?
Message from DiAvOl Most recent post: 10/28/2007 4 authors and 17 replies. Hello, wrote in message and have some questions related to the resource id's. When a new client connects to the server or the server opens a file the Resource id number increases normally, but when the server closes the socket and the file and then a new client connects or file opens, the Resource id still increases without reseting to the previous closed id's. For example: Client connects to the server...accept(); Client fd: Resource id #1 client quits.... fclose/socket_close Client connects to the server...accept(); Client fd: Resource id #2 client quits.... fclose/socket_close ... ... ... Client connects to the server...accept(); Client fd: Resource id #12456 Should not the resource id reset to #1 when the second client connected ? Can this behaviour cause problems to the server ? wrote in message a simple socket server and client to demonstrate this: server: ---------- <?php set_time_limit(0); $socket = stream_socket_server("tcp://0.0.0.0:6000", $errno, $errstr); if (!$socket) { echo "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n"; } else { while ($conn = stream_socket_accept($socket)) { testme(); testme(); testme(); print("Client fd: ".$conn." \n"); fclose($conn); echo '$socket is resource = ' .

Message from admyc Most recent post: 10/28/2007 8 authors and 10 replies. Hello I am having trouble making PHP web page that uploads an image file and moves it to a new file name. The problem occurs when the new filename already exists. I am using move_uploaded_file(). The fist time an image file is uploaded and moved to a new file name there is no problem, however if I decide to upload a different image file, when the script tries to move this to the same filename (which is what I want as I want the uploaded file to have a specific name) it does not work and a couple of warning messages are shown one saying 'failed to open stream: No such file or directory in...' and the other saying 'Unable to move '...\tmp\php42.tmp' to 'htdocs/.../images/ newimagename.jpg' ...' I have looked at www.w3schools.com and it says 'Note: If the destination file already exists, it'll be overwritten.' however I think the problem is that this isn't happening?

Message from leonardodiserpierodavinci Most recent post: 10/28/2007 3 authors and 5 replies. Hi. Sorry for what is perhaps a neophyte question: is it possible to pass a variable to a PHP script from inside another PHP piece of code? For instance, the file test.php (which of course resides on a webserver that supports PHP) is as such: [some HTML code...] <?php echo("<i>the variable abc contains " . $_GET['abc'] . "</i>"); ?> [some more HTML code...] and if I open this file directly i.e. by typing test.php?abc=888 in the URL line of a web browser, I correctly get the message "the variable abc contains 888" in italic, surrounded by the HTML content. Now, let's say that I want to include all this content in another file, index.php. I tried to call it as such in index.php [other HTML...] <?php include "test.php?abc=888"; ?> [yet other HTML...] which isn't the correct way as it gives the following error: Warning: main(l/test.php?abc=888) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/index.php on line 52 Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'l/test.php? abc=888' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/ pear') in /home/www/index.php on line 52 How should I call the file?

As far as I know I can override the php settings for a certain branch of the whole directory tree by putting a additional, new php.ini in this directory. Is this true ? If I assign in this new php.ini only a new value to 1 (!) php variable are then all the other php parameter values taken from the next php.ini when I go towards the root of the directory tree?

Message from Gustaf Most recent post: 10/27/2007 6 authors and 9 replies. I have been working on a membership form for a while, and find it very tedious to get an acceptable level of form validation. A web search for solutions revealed some home-brewed solutions, such as these: http://simonwillison.net/2003/Jun/17/theHolyGrail/ http://samuelsjoberg.com/archive/2004/11/form-validation-on-client-and-server Quoting from the first link, this is my idea of what form validation is like from the user's perspective: 1. The form is displayed; you fill it in. 2. You submit the form to the server. 3. If you missed something out or provided invalid input, the form is redisplayed pre-filled with the valid data you already entered. 4. The redisplayed form tells you what you got wrong. It also flags the fields that were incorrect. 5. Loop until you fill the form in correctly. In my membership form, I have found this to be complicated, error-prone and tedious if coded by hand in PHP. Plus, I find that very little of the code that comes out of it can be reused. There must be a better way... I'm all for coding by hand, but in this case, the most productive environment I can imagine'd be a WYSIWYG IDE environment, where you draw the form and pick most properties from drop-down lists. The IDE would then generate all the code for you, and offer to FTP it to the right location. I believe this is what Microsoft wanted to accomplish with Web Forms in ASP.NET.

I tried just echo'ing the JAVAscript to do an alert(); , or even a window.open. It works if I just run the script by itself, but when it runs in the div on my main page, I get the rest of the feedback (it displays the message I echo'ed that said "youve got mail", but the alert box doesnt pop up.

Message from pwiegers Most recent post: 10/25/2007 3 authors and 3 replies. L.S., I'm in the process of wraping up a 0.9-version of a new reporting-tool I have been developping for the past months. I want to invite 2 or 3 people to beta-test this new, exciting tool! My tool is class-based. (ie: you need to be able to use classes, so if you do not know OOP 1) please learn, you will love it! 2) do not try to test my new tool :-) ) The users I have in mind are PHP-programmers that create online applications. (Not CMS'ses, that won't be of much use.) I'd like my testers to be experience programmers (+5 years programming, +3 years PHP.) You'd be in the process of creating a online application at the moment, and the client want LOTS of (complex) reports. You know how to generate the SQL-code, but creating all those reports is a lot of work. My tool can make this easy! (At the moment, my code cannot deliver graphs of any kind. If you need those, wait till the next version :-) ) I'll send you a date-locked byte-code .php file, and all documentation (which isn't yet available online.) I'd like from you bugreports, and a general feeling if this is usefull (to you, or to others!). You'll, of course, recieve a free copy of the 1.0-version! (which I plan to sell for $ 145,-) If you are interested, please let me know. Paul Wiegers pwiegers@xxxxxxxxxxx read more about Seeking beta-testers for a new reportingtool
Message from turnitup Most recent post: 10/25/2007 5 authors and 5 replies. I am in the process of transforming a procedural code base into an OO code base. The code lends itself to this refactoring and it is proving an effective exercise. However, I am running into a few irritations. I am using __autoload to load class files corresponding to code names. I have cranked up error reporting, but if for some reason there is a syntax error or whatever in a class, the application crashes with no explanation. The bug hunt takes ages and lots of echoing. Is there anything I can do to help myself? Use of assert, or exceptions, or try-catch handling? read more about General Advice - objects, classes and coding style
