Checking File Existence Through A List Of File Locations Gathered From An Array
I've been trying to wrote a code to check the existence of some files gathered from a field in mySql database.
And I am kind a stuck at a point where I get the file locations from the database but when it passes those locations to file exist it keeps telling me the file does not exist.
Only first file exists the other 2 file does not exist to test if the code was working or not. Code:

Checking File Locations (WinXP Pro)
Can someone confirm for me that when working on WinXP Pro, I need to put ALL the .dll files (including php4ts.dll) in c:windowssystem32 and the php.ini file in c:windows? Sorry to seem like such a nonce, but I have to verify so I'm not second guessing myself when something goes wrong with this install.
File Upload Script - Testing For Existence Of File
i'm having a strange problem when processing some form data. I just want to validate that required fields have been populated, then, if an image has been uploaded, i want to ensure that a description of the image has been provided (for alt tag purposes) before processing the data. For some reason, when a file hasn't been attached, my script interprets it otherwise and prompts the user for the alt tag. I've not come across this problem before, there's a good chance i've done something idiotic but i just can't see it Code:
How To Check For Existence Of A File?
Im programming a shopping cart in php with an administrative back end. My question is this: whenever someone uploads an image for a product, I have to check if an image by the same name exists already. I've done this in perl before with a simple while while(-e "/path/to/$image"){ //do my image renaming here} The -e means while exists this file, keep renaming the current file until it has a unique name. So in php I've never done this before and Im trying to find out a good way to go about doing it. I've looked through the manual and cant really find anything.

Deleting A File From Server Through A File List
I've been having trouble with this for a while. Ages ago I made an upload script that lets you upload to files/upload/ and then once you upload it, a piece of PHP will show the files in that folder. In the admin section of my page i'm trying to find a way to delete the files off the server without having to dig into the FTP and do it manually. Are you able to do that with PHP? Code:
Checking If A File Exsists
I have a mySQL database and a table of products. For each stock code in the products table (or for most), there will be a seperate word .doc containg diagrams etc. I will be populating a HTML form menu box with each stock code obtained from the products table using PHP, which will allow users to view the word .doc for each stock code (model number). However, if for some reason a word .doc is not available for that stock code, it will just go to a broken link. Is there some way of checking whether the word .doc exsists for each stock code before adding it to the menu list?
Checking File Type
I have a page where I can update some entries in a MySQL database and add a picture. The name of the file (added a timestamp) is stored in the database and the file it self in a directory. I have no problems in the uploading part or in database, but when i tried to add file type checking part it went wrong. The only allowed type should be .jpg/jpeg, but even though it is possible to upload that type something strange happens when trying to upload a non .jpg: It don't return the $mess ("Wrong file-type"), but instead it jumps to the "IF($img == "none") part and inserts the text in database (which it shouldn't) as if the $img is empty! Code:

Checking Remote File When Server Is Down
My webpage displays images from a remote server and occasionally the remote server goes down. I want my PHP page to check if the remote images are available and if not, take them from another source. I tried this code: $mirrorpath1 = "http://sevtrek.vinyamar.com/archives/p1.gif"; if (@fopen($mirrorpath1, "r")) { echo "File exists"; } else { echo "File does not exist"; } Normally this code works fine. Eg - if the remote server is working okay but the file doesn't exist, no problems. But if the remote server is down, this PHP script just sits doing nothing. It never gives either option - file exists or file does not exist. Is there another way to check if a remote server is unavailable?
Checking A File Exist In Several Sites
I am in link transfer site. In data base, i have a lot of site links like "http://www.google.com/index.php?search=site linking". I want to check by clicking on a button, which are the bad links from the links which i have in db. I have tried but, i can't able to check all the bad links, because script times out even i increased the "set_time_limit(100);". If i have some 800 links means, only 100 links loop is going and the script time outs and also it take long time to execute. The code which i am using be <? //Checking whether a file is exist in a sever link function urlfind($link) { if($link) { $file = @fopen ("$link", "r"); if($file) { return true; } else { return false; } fclose($file); } } // Start Calling the function for checking a file exist in a server link $sqlstr="SELECT ft_category_name,ft_category_id FROM ft_category1 where ft_category_name like '%http%www.%'"; $query=mysql_query($sqlstr); if (mysql_num_rows($query) !=0) { $i=0; while($res = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { set_time_limit(100); $strtemp=trim($res["ft_category_name"]); if ($strtemp != "") { echo $i++."

I know how to use file_exists to see if a file is there or not, but i cant use this on a remote file. I normally chekc to see if a pic is there if it is i display it if not then i dont.

MD5 Encrypt A List Of Password From A File
Does anyone have a php script that would allow me to encrypt the contents of a txt file? I have an excel file which has a list of usernames and generated passwords. What I would like to do is copy out the plaintext passwords to a txt file and then do a conversion to encrypt the passwords using MD5 encryption as they will then be imported into a MySQL database. Is that possible? I can do them one at a time using a small php script but I've approx 100+ to do.

Member Area With Dynamic File List
I have an Apache 1.3.31 with PHP 4.4.1 available and want to create some kind of "member area" with a per-user or per-group listing of files that can be downloaded. How would I do this? At present I just protect the individual files using .htaccess and .htpasswd files and give out direct URLs to the files together with username/password. What I'd like is some login functionality where people can log in using their username/password and then find a list of files they can download together with additional information individually tailored for that user.

Flat File List Style Menu
I'm trying to build a Menu Building out of flatfiling with a section to add new areas to it. The idea behind it is to have a header for each section (as the top order list item) then each one below is a link of that category. I already figured I'm buillding it with limits (20 items Max per heading) and that to do it I will simply have each Heading/links in it be a new row in the document. example row Tips tips.php Tips on Php, file tips File Tips tips/files.php, etc etc With the first item of each row being the Heading and each other being the ones under it My question is What delimiters should I use to seperate in the row (I need to separate each item by 1 delimiter and then in each row separate the href, alt, name) Secondly for rewrtiign it should I simply write it so each time it rewrites the whole file or should I try and do string replacing and do modify sorta deal.

.csv File That I Can Put Into An Array

CSV File Into An Array
Can anyone explain in layman's terms the sequence of events required to upload a csv.txt and put the contents into an array. Lets assume I have a form to select the csv.txt file, which then uploads, then what happens to it? where does it go? how do I get it out of the ether? How, where do I access it. Looking at the PHP manual, I deduce that I need to some how use the fopen and fgetcsv but unfortunately it reads like gobbledygook to me at the moment. I can do, see and understand that if it was a picture, it goes into a directory on the server and resides there, but I don't want the csv.txt file to be saved.
Array To File?

Dynamically Populate Drop-down List And Dynamically Include Html File
We have a drop down list on a PHP page, with several product names, and when people click one item, we will refresh the same page with the product name as parameter, and in turn we want to include a HTML file into the content area of the same page. I know it is recommended to put everything into database, but we want the web site to be very "portable", so the drop-downlist and the content should both in text files. Let's say the drop-down list will be poplulated from the product.txt file, and there will be a file for each corresponding item in the drop-down list. From the user point of view, if he wants to add a new product, he will just need to open the product.txt file, and add a new line with the product name, "Laptop", then add a new text file named "laptop" in the same folder which contains the HTML fragment to be included in the content area. What is the easiest way to do this?
Split A File Into An Array.
I know how to load a file into a script, I was just wondering how to take this information, which is from a text file, and put the text in there into an array. For example the text string is this "netprofit 2.3% schools 4.5%" I want to be able to break this apart and list the values into a table. I want to open the file, and be able to list the values, 2.3%, and 4.5% from a array. Do I need to use the explode function to do this?
File Type Is In The Array $ext Or Not
i have this array : $ext=array ("image/pjpeg" , "image/jpeg" , "image/gif"); i wanna check if the file type is in the array $ext or not, i wrote this : if($imgtype !=$ext[0] or $imgtype !=$ext[1] or $imgtype !=$ext[2]){ die("error"); } the $ext maybe will have more file ext., so i need to change the if term always!
Write An Array Into A File?
I want to write to a certain line of a file. Somebody suggested that I put the file into an array, modify a part of it, and write it back out. So for example if I were to edit file.txt's third line I would do. Code: $content = file(file.txt); $content[2] = "blah blah blah"; I am trying to write the array back into the file, but I can't seem to get it to work. I tried to do this after the code above: Code: $file_pointer = fopen("file.txt", "w"); fwrite($file_pointer, "$content); But that didn't seem to work.
How To Explode Array From File?
contents of myfile.txt = 5035|9638742|11938 // (one line of text) $myfile = "/home/path/public_html/myfile.txt"; $totals = file($myfile); $var = explode("|", $totals[0]); $i = number_format($var[0]); $k = number_format($var[1]); For some reason this is acting funny. I am getting a null value for $k for some reason... Is there a better way to do this?
Reading File Into Array
I have a directory which contains files and I have since found out that I can place the files into an array. However, I am new to all of this and my all attempts at writing correct code have failed. All I want to do is place the file name into the array so that I can create a while loop on the array in a table. I would even be satisified with counting the number of files in the directory.

File Names Into Array
right so im in the midst of creating a gallery for a friend of mine, i have most of it right, but when i get the file names from the directory and into an array i have the ".." and "..." as the first two elements, any ideas? my getImages functions is simply as follows: #PHP function getImages() { global $images; $mydir = opendir(images); for($i=0; $i<10; $i++) { $entryname = readdir($mydir); $images[] = $entryname; echo("<br>"); } #PHP
Read From File Into Array
I see what my problem is but not sure what I need to change. I'm reading a single number from a file that's fed into an array but the array doesn't want to print out its output. $oncall=array(); $oncall[1]="msims"; $oncall[2]="dtilbury"; $oncall[3]="jma"; $oncall[4]="jweaver"; $oncall[5]="cirwin"; $filename="oncall/.oncall"; $n=file_get_contents($filename); echo "$oncall[$n]"; This prints nothing. But when I comment out the file_get_contents and simply do $n="2" the array prints out dtilbury like it should. My guess is the error lies in how $n is being assigned from the file_get_contents. Any thoughts?

Sort Array From .dat File
I'm using the following to open and print values from a .dat file but I can't figure out how to sort the results. I think I need to use either the array_multisort() or krsort() functions. If so, how would I do that? <html> <body> <pre> <?php $fp = fopen("datfile.dat", r); $count = 0; while(!feof($fp)) { $register = fgets($fp, 4); $sales = fgets($fp, 5); $register_array[$count] = $register; $sales_array[$count] = $sales; print "Register: $register_array[$count]<br>"; print "Sales: $sales_array[$count]<br>"; $count = $count + 1; } ?> </pre> </body> </html>
Storing A File In A Php Array?
I have been searching the internet for examples of how to transmit data to a given server (for example a simple .php server). At the moment im not interested in how the server side deals with it but just how the client side does. The front end gives the user the abiltiy to upload a fie (say in this case an image .jpg). Basically the file is selected into an upload field and then a submit button hit. From here is where I need help How will the image will be stored so it can be transmitted? I know in java you can use byte arrays, but I dont seem to be able to find anything useful on the web to do this in php?

Access An Array From A Text File?
Im trying to build an array from elements I have stored in a text file (So I can access them on multiple pages). What is the syntax for this? I thought it might be... storedArray1 = array(require_once("/arrays/stored_array_1.txt")); or storedArray1 = array(include("/arrays/stored_array_1.txt")); but I guess you can only use the 'include' statement when inserting text into html code NOT php code?
Writing Data From An Array To A File
I'm am writing a script to basicly function as a news script but will be modified/made for anoter purpose. Anyways, I have been sucessful in opening the data file, seporating each (item; in an array), and then dividing each item up (item1||item2||item3, etc.) for use in the script and display purposes. When each item is printed out and "delete" link/button is printed under each. When clicked will pass an action (delete) and an item_key (the items ID). From there I would like it to do the following: Unset the item that was clicked for deletion (via item_key) Open the data file Write the remaining items in the array back to the data file Close the data file I set the following up at first for testing so that it wouldn't actually do anything with the data file but just unset the delete item and print (echo) the rest to make sure it was doing want I wanted it to do. And everything seemed fine. When I changed it to open, write, etc to the file something must me wrong. It just delete's everything. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to fix this buy the code:
Read Only First 10 Lines Of A File Into An Array?
It's nice to be able to generate an html table from a PHP array. I know how to do this, but the array in question is built from a file. The file in question can be very long, and I only want the first 10 lines. So, I'd like to reduce the overhead it takes to read the file into the array by limiting the number of lines read in - rather than have the entire file read in and then limiting the output to the html table. $visits= file("visdata.txt"); //reverse the array so table is ordered by date decending $visits = array_reverse ($visits); //show only the last 10 visitors $number_of_visits = count($visits); if ($number_of_visits > 10) { $number_of_visits = 10; } echo "<table border=Ɔ' cellspacing=Ƈ' width=ò“'>"; .... .... .... ....
