Integrating ImageMagick With PHP In IIS
I'm sort of new at this but I'm pretty proud of myself for configuring a W2K3 server and installing php4.3.1 and mysql successfully. Since then, I got the GD2 libraries to work and now I'm trying to install ImageMagick so a content management system I'm using (typo3) will work as well as possible.

SO...I installed IM today on to the server. It passed the test and the test image appeared. I activated IM in the content management program and now php returns lots of errors (related to forks). How do I make sure PHP knows IM is installed and integrate the two?

Integrating PHP And C++ Or ASM For Web Applications?
I am simply experimenting in this area, but are there any tutorials on
integrating C++ or ASM binaries with PHP? For instance, I have an
application in PHP that reads a rather large matrix of data from a
database and then needs to structure it into a tree. Well, it works fine
in PHP, but it would be a lot faster in C++. I was thinking of exporting
the tree function to C++ so that I would have a faster execution time of
my PHP script.

Is there a way to have like a function type interface in PHP to a binary
without writing a PHP module and installing it on a system? Other then the
obvious, just using standard output/input.

Common SQL Injection

Integrating RSS Feed Into A Website..
I would like to integrate an RSS newsfeed into my website but can't
seem to figure out how.

Integrating PHP Calendar To Website
First thanks for helping me with my PHP/SSI question from an earlier thread. Allow me to throw another question at the group which should be real simple.

I have my PHP calendar script that I uploaded to the server and viewing the calendar directly, it works great. The calendar is located at:

mydomain.com/calendar/index.php

I want to integrate this on my website, so I added this line to where I want it to appear on the appropriate page:

<?php require("calendar/index.php");?>

It displays great. Trouble is, the css file and advancing to the next month are not working, because the relative links aren't pointing to the calendar folder, but instead are pointing to the root of mydomain.com.

How do I get the links to point to the calendar folder?

Integrating An Internet And Intranet
I developed a php inventory system on the public Internet. I have now been asked to create a customer information system that will run in an INTRAnet environment. What php and/or perl functions can I use to seamlessly integrate the intranet and internet applications.For example:

We have all the product information online, but we want all the customer information offline(especially credit card stuff). When we make a sale, we would like to have the customer information displayed along with the product information. This will be used for invoicing and then for accounting purposes.

Integrating A CMS With An Existing Design
I'm after suggestions for a CMS to use with an existing design. Here's what the site looks like: Pulse I guess CMS is probably a little too grand for what I want. I just want to be able to update the text on each of my pages without editing the design. I've implemented solutions like TinyMCE before and think it's an ideal editor to use, but I need to be able to integrate this with something that can handle the content.

Approach To Authentication When Integrating An App
I have just a general question about how to integrate applications without requiring separate logins for users. For example, lets say I had elgg installed but wanted to integrate phpbb. Is there a general way to integrate separate applications such that the elgg login and session extend to phpbb? Is there a general approach to invoke when building this sort of frankenapp?

Common Database For Php And Java

Web Surveys: Common Practice
I am just wondering, what is the current best
common practice for online surveys:

1. allowing users to vote any number of times
2. allowing one vote per IP
3. requiring email address verification (seems overly complex for a survey)
4. setting a cookie on the web browser and allowing no more voting until
the user closes the web browser
5, other

Common PHP Files On Different Domains
I have several websites on a remote virtual server. These websites use the same software. I am looking for a way to update all the common files at the same time, rather than uploading the same file via FTP to each domain. I can not INCLUDE() a file from a different domain.

Is there a way to use a common source file stored on one domain, to be used on multiple domains?

PHP In Array Issue - Common Words
I have an array

$commonwords = array ("and", "he", "I", "in", "is", "it", "of", "that", "the", "to", "was","are", "as", "at", "be", "but", "for", "had", "have", "him","his", "not", "on", "one", "said", "so", "they", "we", "with", "you", "about", "an", "back", "been", "before", "big", "by", "call","came", "can", "come", "could", "did", "do", "down", "first", "from", "get", "go","has", "her", "here", "if", "into", "just", "like", "little", "look", "made", "make","more", "me", "much", "must", "my", "no", "new", "now", "off", "old", "only", "or","our", "other", "out", "over", "right", "she", "see", "some", "their", "them", "then","there", "this", "two", "up", "want", "well", "went", "were", "what", "when", "where","which", "who", "will", "your", "i", "&", "a", "good", "i'm");

Now I am trying to check if a perticuler search word containing any word which is in array.. so avoide them.. example:

if(!in_array($space_split['search_word'],$commonwords))
{
// some work
}

this is not giving me right result.. for example.. it is not avoiding some words like "a" "i'm" "&" and few others..

can anyone tell me what is this issue?

Common Login For Diff Modules
I need to make a community site containing blog, forum, shoutbox, gallery, news, event calenders. Any one can give me suggestions like how can i make them accessible with one common login? Is it already handled by joomla or any other cms?

Pre-caching Common Queries On A Database
In trying to improve the performance of searches on a database, I read that it makes sense to run a small set of common queries off-line and cache them in a plain HTML file, and then use HTTP Location: to point to the static page. Problem is the book I read only talks about CGI. Can anyhow tell me/point me in the right direction for doing a similar thing using PHP?

Common MySql Search Algorithms In PHP?
I need to put together a simple search function. I imagine there is
already some PHP code out there that handles the basics?

For instance, how do I search for just words, from one word boundry to
another?

Common Causes For Apache Exiting With SIGSEGV?
I have a website that's built with PHP and MySQL and it works just
fine, most of the time. However, when the load gets higher (say 3
hits per second), Apache starts to exit with SIGSEGV on almost every
request.

Are there any typical areas to look at to solve these kinds of
problem?

Sharing Common Files Between Sub-domains
I'm looking for some ideas and best practices for setting up my sub-domains to make sharing/including common files among different sub-domains easy.

Specifically, I am looking for a solution that will make it easy to reference common files in the PHP script as well as referencing common images within the HTML. This is particularly a problem when including files in a PHP script that may include other files - can't use relative pathing.

For example, let's say I had this folder structure:

mydomain.com
|
|--sub1.mydomain.com
|
|--sub2.mydomain.com
|
|--images
|
|--includes

I could create a $prepath varaible with the value ".." for the subdomains and "" for the main domain. Then use that to reference all files from the root of the main domain. Of course I would have to reference any images in the HTML with a full path from the main domain only.

Integrating Custom Coupons With Shopping Cart
Does anyone know of an Open Source shopping cart that supports custom coupons and discounts?

It's simple to discount certain products for certain affiliates, but we want to have more power over what a coupon can do. For example, we might want to have 2-for-1 deals for select groups of products, or one that credits an affiliate's account twice the usual amount.

We're already involved with oscommerce.com, but the model is lacking in this particular area. I don't mind inventing wheels, just as long as I'm not re-inventing one. Any help would be appreciated. BTW, the cart will be built on PHP/PG.

Integrating Quickbooks Enterprise With Unique PHP Store?
We're being asked to get Quickbooks Enterprise edition for our
business.
We use a completely hand-made online store (PHP and mySQL) and used to
simply create CSV sheets that were imported as invoices into regular
Quickbooks.
But I guess that's neither 100% accurate and may not even be doable in
newer Quickbooks.

We want to be able to integrate Quickbooks into the system without
replacing our system. Has anyone done this?
Anyone have any experience with Quickbooks Enterprise and unique
in-house online stores?

Integrating Smarty With The Zend Framework 'View' API...
I hope someone here with experience could add their two cents, as I am
kind of a noob to the ZF and Smarty....

Integrating IP-Whitelist With Unruly Bot-Blocking Script
I got a sticky from "a fellow Yorkshireman" having problems integrating the IP-Whitelist into the Unruly Bot-Blocking Script that I champion. These things are always best discussed in the forums - all can learn, and others can chip in with better ideas.

First,Obtain Bad-Bot-Blocking script here
The previous post is hereThis is the sticky, heavily edited to cut down on the PHP-listing (which is within the download link above): ...for some reason i can't get the ip whitelist working with it. Obviously i don't want to block legitimate bots and an ip list is a better idea than the user agents for reasons you mentioned in your post.

I copied the ip whitelist code over the relevant lines at the top of the file. So:

Common Email Characters Not Accepted By Mysql
I'm making array of characters to replace with temporary proxys (equalsign, singlequote, doublequote, etc.) that will be switched back the original character when a user views his or her emails. For those of you who've done e-mail scripts with mysql before, which characters have proven to be the most trouble (I'm only imagining how many emails one email could hold up if checkmail.php's error array didn't have a certain charactter)?

Failed Opening Required 'common.inc'
I get this fatal error message when i try to include the 'common.inc' file. Could someone explain where common.inc and php.ini should be located and what their contents should be. I am running an apache server and php4. I found 3 different 'common.php' files in different locations within the php directory.

Reusing An Object For Common Select To Database
I've noticed that after I finished this app, I had repeated a similar task over and over and would like to modularize it. The repeated task was connecting to the database, executing a select, putting all the results of the columns into different variables of an object. PHP Code:

List Of Common Words Mit My Keyword Search?
Seeing if anyone had a list of common words (the,a, as, of,...) so that I can limit my keyword search. I do not want to use the length of the word to limit.

How I Can Find Longest Common Prefix Of Strings
I'm interested in such algorithm that solves problem of finding longest
common prefix of two or more strings.

I haven't found such function in PHP, or I pass it?

Problems Integrating Two User Databases And Session Systems
I've been working with a client adding features to his website. Over the past few months, we've added a registration system and an array of membership features. His forum, which is running phpBB, is running on a separate database.

Here's the scenario:

Main site - "subscribedUsers" table contains all user information -- uses sessions/cookies system
Forum - "phpbb_users" table contains all user information -- uses sessions/cookies system

As a quick and dirty solution, we have phpBB create a new forum user and associate the forum user_id with the site user_id in a forum_id field.

In the header of the page, we're including /phpBB2/common.php and defining IN_PHPBB. We use the session_pagestart() and init_userprefs() functions. On login, we use the same process that phpBB does to login the forum user at the same time.

We run into problems in a few places. I'll outline them here:

- When you go from site -> forum -> site, the session is lost. However, the forum user remains logged in.
- When you try to log out from the forum, it doesn't budge.
- The append_sid() function stops working in both the site and forum.

Ideally, we want to create a system in which a user logs in from the main website, and is seamlessly logged into the forum using their forum user_id. We want the session to remain constant at all times, even when going from site -> forum -> site. Finally, we want the logout in the forum to work as usual.

Common Prob With Mysql LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE ...
i have most recent php & mysql versions running on a linuxmachine

i want to use LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE and pass it from php to mysql.

- the file i load is given with full path and the directory is readble
- On MySQL local-infile = ON
- From PHP i connect using client flag (128) to allow passing a file over
that connection: mysq_connect( $host, $usr, $pwd, false, 128)

Ive followed all advice from php & mysql sites and deja.com ...

But i still get the message: The command is not allowed with this MySql
Version or something ...

any ideas where i should look further?

what are *all* the requirements for a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE to work
seamingly?

Converting A PHP Site To A Total Static HTML Site

PHP OOP Interface?
Can any one provide a link about PHP OOP interface?

why a class method is declared static? I want to know more abt abstract class, abstract method, abstract interface.

Web Interface
I want to build a web interface to act as a server adminstration app. ( add accounts create directories copy files moves files do chmod and other admin stuff) The problem is when trying to execute thes commands from the web I never get the right permission level to do these things. My current thinking is ssh tunneling but because the interface is one way I can never enter a password I can't create a key file because again I don't have the correct permission to do this via a web call.

I have bounced all over the place trying to find the answer from the linux forum to google to phpnet don't know where else to turn I am posting here because I want to develop the interface in PHP so I can pass parameters to the scripts on the server

I do have root access to the server and can do all of the thing I want to do via the shell but the goal is to do it all via the web interface. at a loss as to where to go now
I am now using RHlinux 7.2 with PHP4.x.

OOP Interface
Why we use intrerface? What is the necessesity of interface? Why interface is useful?

PHP & API Interface
How would you embed an API interface into a PHP application? What is the easiest way to implement the embed? I don't think I fully understand what an API really is, so I will example what I think it is.

I think that an API is an actual program or application. Maybe an API is just a piece of script where the developer just embed it.

Site Flow Chart/site Map Creator For PHP?
I'm working on a site created by someone else, containing a hundred
different pages or so in PHP, with connections (includes and form
actions) going all over the place.

Is there a utility out there that will create a visual site map of all
the connecting pages in a site?
I tried using Dreamweaver MX 2004's, but the best it can do is see
connections in HTML. It'd only go one layer deep and find only a few
connections for a total of about 6 pages out of the dozens.

PHP Script To Interface W/ UPS Via XML
Has anybody created or know where I can find code to help me integrate my PHP driven site with the UPS XML rates and service selection tool?

The documentation UPS supplies is pretty good (122 pages) but I'd rather not have to write the whole application from scratch.

Opinions On Best DB Interface

typically use the PEAR DB package but curious as to what others see as
strengths and weaknesses in PDO, native mysql drivers and others.

Bbcode Interface
I'm implementing a bbcode parsing engine on a news script, but my only concern is how to create those buttons that interact with the textbox and automatically insert tags and such when you click on them.

PHP And Oracle OCI Interface
I have a simple application which accepts some search criteria, and then displays all of the data results in table format. I would like to have a [PREV] and [NEXT] buttons, but I cannot see a way to jump to a particular record. So that I can limit the number of records displayed on the screen. I'd like a way to say:

startpostion( pageNo * recordsSet )
while (read record() and rec++ < recordSet)
print data;

Can I do this anyway?

PHP Interface To Mailman
Does anyone know about any work on building a PHP interface to Mailman ?

I've read about the Python extention for PHP "PiP" (Python in PHP), which
would allow to build an interface to Mailman directly in PHP :
http://www.csh.rit.edu/~jon/projects/pip/
http://www.csh.rit.edu/~jon/pres/ph...iles/frame.html
But it still seems to be quite experimental. Did anyone happen to use this
extension ?

PHP Abstract Vs Interface?
What is the difference? When would you use one or the other? I mean, they both provide a format for child classes to extend from.
