Hi, I have a quick question. Is it possible to do something like this? The options are generated dynamically based on foreach loop. I want the loop to stop where the $_GET['t'] equals the $k and make it selected. <option value="http://domain.com/<?php print $k; ?>/" <?php if ($k == $_GET['t']) print 'selected'; ?>><?php print $v; ...
Are there any PHP-scripts out there that can unzip regular zip-files? The requirements we have is that we must run with safe_mode on and we're not allowed to install any extensions to enable this functionality. Thus, any functionality must be regular php scripts. Any thoughts? EDIT: Unfortunately, neither of the posted solution works...

We are interfacing with a piece of hardware developed here, and allowing access via the web. The firmware for this device is written in C, and part of that firmware is about 5000 lines of code that parses huge binary files for config data, compiled to a .dll. Is there any way under heaven that I can access a .dll, written in C, from PH...

I'm learning PHP and MySQL to get a hang of server-side scripting and for personal interest/development. The first 'program,' beyond 'hello world' seems to be writing ones' own blog. This is a little beyond me yet and so thought I'd start with a contacts-database type. So far so good, but (and there's always the but!) I'm trying to form...
I'm looking at the function trim but that unfortunatily does not remove "0"s how do I add that to it? Should I use str_replace? EDIT: The string I wanted to modify was a message number which looks like this: 00023460 The function ltrim(00023460, "0") does just what I need :) obviously I would not want to use the regular trim because it...
I have the code for a javascript calendar and it works perfectly as it creates it when the page loads. However I was wondering if it's possible to add events to it. I found a plugin (jQuery) that enables the user to hover over a td with class "event" and an event will be displayed. So since this calendar will not be used by me but by som...
We all know that $a1 = array('foo'); $a2 = $a1; $a2[0] = 'bar'; // now $a1[0] is foo, and $a2[0] is bar. The array is copied However, what I remember reading, but cannot confirm by Googling, is that the array is, internally, not copied until it is modified. $a1 = array('foo'); $a2 = $a1; // <-- this should make a copy // but $a1 and ...
How would I go about creating a system in which a user must click a link to validate something. Let us say that on my website, each user has their own folders that are not shared. I want their to be an option for each user on their account page in which they can create a trust with another user to access each others folders. Perhaps by ...
Hi, has anybody tried out the new 5.3.0 RC1 php release and played a bit with anonymous functions? I would like to know if you can use it like python for functional programming. E.g., can you do something like: def sinus(x): if x<=0.1: return x else: return (lambda x: 3*x-4*x*x*x)(sinus(x/3)) print sinus(172.0) Or bet...

I have a list of items in MySQL, connected through a column "parent_id". Let's assume the columns are: id, name, parent_id If one of my users deletes an item high in the hierarchy, I need to delete all of its children. So, two part question: 1) Is there an effective and efficient MySQL call that will return ID's for all items where ...
Hi, I know this is an elementary question for you php people out there: I put p tags around in some php by doing this: echo "<p>"; echo $VM_LANG->_('PHPSHOP_COUPON_ENTER_HERE') . '<br />'; echo "</p>"; It is a silly way to do it. So how can I put the p tags within the one 'echo'? ...
I read specifications of mysql_pconnect of the function of PHP.. "mysql_pconnect is that connection with the SQL server is not closed even if the practice of the script is finished". There is it unless connection is closed, but will it be that connection stays until a timing of the reboot of mysql? ...
I would like to access a PHP file whose name has UTF-8 characters in it. The file does not have a BOM in it. It just contains an echo statement that displays a few unicode characters. Accessing the PHP page from the browser (FireFox 3.0.8, IE7) results in HTTP error 500. There are two entries in the Apache log (file is /க.php; the let...

Is it madness to expect this to just work? Here's some additional info of the LAMP host: Linux 2.4.32 PHP 5.2.6 No non-default modules ...
