Computer Based Testing / Assessment System
One of my clients would need an online Computer Based Testing (CBT) / assessment system. Basically, he needs a software able to present a series of questions (in Italian) with multiple choices and capable of calculate the cumulative score for multiple answers, with the option of sending the result of the test to the admin. The UI should retain the same look of the main website, so a separate header/footer management may be needed. The presence of a security system to access the tests based on the check of the IP addresses would be also useful.
I've looked for hours on the net for some PHP-based scripts, and the best one I found is TCExam. Unfortunately, this software requires PHP 5 and my shared Unix server runs PHP 4.4.2 only.
Does anybody know of any other software / script offering the features I mentioned above?

New PHP Documentation Build System Is Ready For Testing
The PHP documentation team is pleased to announce the initial release of the new build system that generates the PHP Manual. Written in PHP, PhD ([PH]P based [D]ocBook renderer) builds are now available for viewing at http://docs.php.net. Everyone is encouraged to test and use this system so that bugs will be found and squashed. Once the new build system is stable, expect additional changes to the PHP manual that will include an improved navigation system and styling for OOP documentation. Feel free to set this developmental mirror as your default by using my.php. I will be interested to see the changes. I thought the last changes they made to the manual were very good. does anyone actually set their default mirror?
PHP/MySQL Based Help System
i'm in a search for a free php/mysql based help system. In other words like you have CHM windows help. Since everybody knows windows CHM help, i won't go explaining how it should look I have been searching for on uncle google and he didn't find anything usefull.

Session, Cookie Based Tracking System
I'm going for a huge project, using sessions, cookies, and the like, to try to track what content my visitors are accessing. I have sessions autostarted on my IIS server (my ISP's decision, not mine), and would like to immediately stuff visited urls into a session array, and get a cookie placed on their machine (if there isn't one from a previous session), so I don't lose the user's information if they come back. Then if they are try to access certain content or pages, I want them to enter in some regisration information (company, name, email, phone, etc.), and stuff that into a session or cookie variable. So, if they do have information into any of those cookie or session variables, I want the information to be emailed to me upon the expiration of that session. Can anybody help me out with any of these, scripts, especially the part about prompting that email script once a session expires?
System(); Command Not Working On Remote System. Windows.
My server is a windows machine, on the same domain as python(also a windows machine). Apache is running as a service as an administrator. This is a test only environment to whom it may concern(I hate people telling me how insecure my system is) I'm just trying to run: $last_line = exec('dir pythonc$', $retval, $g); print_r($retval); echo '<br>'.$g.'<br>'; echo '$last_line= '.$last_line.'<br>'; Which outputs: Array ( ) 1 $last_line= The command from the command line works fine. And apache can access directories that only administrators can access on the local machine.

Cookie Problem With A Computer
I have a problem with cookies on an intranet page created in PHP. All the computers on the network except one works with cookies!! I though it was a general cookie problem, but every other site works, this includes hotmail and so on.. I even opened up the cookie directory and new files are created for every site visited except the intranet page. Why is this? Why is it happening to only one computer while all the other computers work fine?
Opening A File From Your Computer
How would you open and read a php file that is in your hard drive and use it inside a php script that is run on a server. Example: security.php - file located on the server would have something like this PHP Code:
Send Notification To My Computer From A Website... Possible?
I run a community website (forum and wiki) that is updated perhaps once every 10 minutes by a user. My bandwidth usage is quite high because the 40 users generally sit there pressing F5 to see if anything has been added. I do keep images small, but still... I wonder, would it be possible using PHP (or cgi, or whatever, really, I'm open to suggestions!) for the website to send out some kind of signal to users saying "I've been updated" so that they don't need to refresh so often? I know how to send anonymous emails using PHP so I could use that, but I imagine people don't want their inboxes getting cluttered with about 200 "I'm updated" emails each day! I suppose I could make a very small simple php page that reads "most recent changes" from an SQL table so people could refresh that instead of the main page, but I don't imagine people would bother to, because it'd be easier for them to just keep one main window open. It would be nice if there was something like the MSN Messenger feature where it sticks it head over the system clock in the bottom right of the screen and says "so-and-so has just come online". If it popped up and said "new post on the forum" or "wiki has been edited" that would be really cool. TBH I can't think of any way to do it, but I thought I'd throw the idea up here and see if anyone knew a way :)

Zend Studio Freezes My Computer

Check Local Computer Script

Parsing HTML Files On Local Computer
I would like to be able to open and read HTML files that are on my local (client) computer and then parse them to extract some specific information they contain. I've been looking here and reading my PHP books, but it appears to me that PHP only opens files on the server or URLs. It think that makes sense to me. Is there an alternative?
Can One Call An Access Database On Computer Using The IP Address?
An old friend of mine recently approached me and said something like: "I've a computer at my office that has an Access database running on it. We've most of our company info in there. We'd like to put a portion of it online as a dynamic site, but we don't want the database to leave our office. Our office is connected to the Internet through a static IP. Can you do it?" I said no, but I also said I'd look into it. Could a PHP script running on a web server make a call to that database to get info? How does that work?
Saving Email Attachments To Local Computer
I receive a daily email attachment, which is a zipped .csv file. I am trying to write a script that is able to read this csv file. Currently I am using the IMAP function and I am able to access my mailbox and get the name of the attachment, but this is where I've hit a stopping point. Is it possible to save the attachment to my local computer? From there I could use the zip_read function. I have tried file_put_contents, but that doesn't seem to work because of the .zip format.

Wiped Computer. Reinstalled Server. Missing Php5apache2.dll
Hello All. I've been running an apache server on my home system for over a year now, and while I know very little about it, I'm not a complete novice. About 4 months ago I upgraded to the latest Apache, PHP and MySQL engines. When I upgraded PHP5, the instructions taught to load the php5apache2.dll file instead of php4apache2.dll, which is located in the PHP install directory. Well, the installation of PHP5 did not included the file, PHP5APACHE2.DLL so I left the PHP4 installation and continued to load php4apache2.dll. Last night, I finally perfomed a complete wipe of my system, (haven't done that in 3 years! It was needed.) and reinstalled apache, PHP and mySQL. Now my problem is, Apache is running but PHP5 did not install the php5apache2.dll file. The only dll is one with 'ts' at the end of the name, but the name escapes me right now. Furthermore, it does not have the php.ini file I need to put into my apache directory. Did I just get a bad install of PHP 5? Is this pretty common? Or do I need to acquire these files elsewhere? As it stands, my webserver is down because of this problem.
Hyperlink From Intranet Web Page To Local Files On My Computer
I'm creating a company intranet, and every employee has certain program we want them to be able to run from it, meaning we want the link to the program to be on the intranet page. For example, Adobe Photoshop resides on all the employees computer under "C:Program FilesAdobePhotoshop 7.0Photoshop.exe" However, when I enter that as a hyperlink on the page, it does not run the program. Is there a way to get a web page to run a program on the local host?

Help Regarding Testing Web Page

Testing If A Value Exists.
Im trying to create a function that tests if a 'Username' exists in a particular table. If the value is found then the code generates 'Username1' as the username, and check if that username exists. If it does, it continues onto generating 'Username2' and so on. <? //testing with username andrew $name = "andrew"; mysql_pconnect("server", "username", "pass"); mysql_select_db("db"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT Username FROM users WHERE Username = '$name'"); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); if ($num_rows > 0): $count = 1; While ($num_rows > 0): //$username = $username.$count; $result = mysql_query("SELECT Username FROM users WHERE Username = '$name'"); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); print($username.$count); $count = $count + 1; endwhile; //---- else: print("ok"); endif; ?>
Testing Cacheability
I have dynamic pages that get content from a database. I have written some code to send a last modified header when significant revisions are made in the content test. Found a site that tests this and improved from no info to the message below. have I accomplished anything as far as conveying to search engines that there is fresh content and what else do I need to do? This object doesn't have any explicit freshness information set, so a cache may use Last-Modified to determine how fresh it is with an adaptive TTL (at this time, it could be, depending on the adaptive percent used, considered fresh for: 2 days 14 hr (20%), 6 days 11 hr (50%), 1 week 5 days (100%)). It has a validator present, but when a conditional request was made with it, the same object was sent anyway. It doesn't have a Content-Length header present, so it can't be used in a HTTP/1.0 persistent connection.
Localhost Testing Speed
I'm currently testing my PHP scripts in two locations. The first is my workplace, where I am using Windows 2000 SP4, and IIS. The other location is my home, where I also use Windows 2000 SP4 and IIS. The problem, is that when I run PHP scripts on my work PC, it takes a couple of seconds to display the page. But when I do exactly the same script at home, it is near instant. Are there any configuration changes I should make to IIS or something which may be different. The only real difference between the two machines, is that my work one is on a corporate LAN.
Testing For Empty Variables
