Multithreading For Standalone Php
I'm trying to write a mutlithreading server with standalone PHP. Concurrent requests is possible. Normally it is done by handling each socket spawn by serversocket in separate threads. But it seems that there is no thread support in PHP at all. Would anyone give me some suggestions? BTW, is the community considering add thread support to PHP in the future? What is the major difficulty to import an existing thread library (such as pthread library) into PHP

Standalone Program
I'm going to be doing a program for an elderly couple who owns a horse ranch, and wants some software to keep track of all their horses, owners, doctors, etc. I'm going to be writing the program in PHP using a MySQL database. I set up one like this for my work and it runs off of Apache on our server. I need this program to be a stand-alone install, without installing MySQL, PHP, and Apache seperately. How could I go about integrating it all into one package?

Standalone PHP Installation
I have never installed PHP before. It's always been set up for me. I have a client whose site is hosted as a virtual server. I'm trying to set up ecom for him, but the mhash library is not installed. So I use fopen to open a script on my website that hashes the variables. Obviously, this is not ideal because if my site goes down his ecom will too. I asked the tech people at his hosting company to set that up, but they said they don't do custom compilations. "As per compiling PHP with --with-mhash=[DIR] this is how that works: any custom compilations, custom applications, etc. are up to the user to compile and install. Use gcc/etc. to compile PHP with the options that you like. The php.ini in /etc is available for your customization as well. If you compile your own binary of PHP, you can place it where you like (or leave it at the default) and get the paths updated to use it, or you can obviously use it directly if necessary." I was planning on compiling a new, minimalist version of PHP (with just mhash) in a different directory, but I'm hesitant to do it in case I get unexpected results (I don't want to take the rest of his site down). Can anyone tell me if this sounds feasible? What kind of pitfalls can I expect? And can anyone recommend a tutorial? Most of the tutorials I've found assume you have root access and/or are compiling PHP/Apache together. I was also wondering if it would be possible to just compile the mhash library and add it to php.ini? That seems to be the simplest thing, though I don't know if it would work...

Standalone DB (like Access) For PHP/Apache
I am in the process of translating an WIndows/ASP/MsSQL Content Managment System (CMS) to Linux/PHP/???. Is there a popular database I can use that will allow standalone files like Access did (which used .MDB files)? In order for the CMS to work, there needs to be a standalone database file that is self-contained, just like Access .mdb files are under Windows. I guess I am asking for an Access equivalent for Linux/Apache.

Standalone Executable File
I downloaded the tarball and while was able to compile within PHP with no problems, I am having memory timeout issues involving image manipulation with extremely large images (800K - 2mb). Requirements are to create thumbnails for even these banner-sized images, but PHP + GD + [huge image] = too much memory. I'm trying to prove that it is undoable, though the suggestion was to do a command-line GD call to the image instead of using the PHP functions to do so to save some memory; if it still times out, then it's undoable altogether. However, I cannot find the standalone executable file that will ensure I can run GD from the command line.

Submit Standalone Programs With Php
I'm building an application which submits scheduled php jobs. The way I would like it to work is to have one php program to submit the other php programs on a scheduled basis. This control program shouldn't have to wait until one job finishes before it can start the next one; instead, it should be able to submit all the jobs in one go, but it also needs to be able to be informed of the return codes of the submitted programs so dependent programs can be submitted too. I've looked at the exec() and system() commands, but they either don't seem to allow return codes to be returned from a submitted program to the submitter program or they unconditionally print anything the submitted programs produce.

Charset
I'm a newbee, also in english. The thing is that I have a kind of javascript based search engine that use a .txt as its database, it has several field delimited by tabs. What I want to do is using the same application to diferents projects. I just change the look, the datas and I have another beautiful serach engine. How I don't know much about javascript, I made a PHP script that builds a .txt with identical structure to the one I have just explained and fill it with the datas. But It doesn't work. I have noticed that the javascript says anywhere something about "unicode" charset. The PHP script make a entirely new file each time from a Access database, I do this because I needed to modify some database content in some fields, and I think that It doesn't use the same charset that javascript. I belive this because I tested to paste same records directly from txt formed by PHP script to original txt and when saving WordPad tell me something about that I'm saving without format and I am going to loose any format issue. And after this, I could see throught the serach engine the records pasted in the txt. I am using WinXP, Nusphere, Dreamweaver, etc, everything in spanish (so the charset, I think It is ISO LATIN number-015, with Euro, I'm just guessing)

Eclipse, Charset And PHP
I'm trying to internationalize my PHP code, but some of the ISO-8859-2 characters don't show in the browser. I'm namely trying to use Croatian and Russian, and some of the characters show and most don't. I did the header (that's the one for Croatian) header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-2"); but it doesn't work. When I type my strings in Eclipse it is all fine and I see all the characters that I want. Is it maybe an Eclipse setting I need to worry about? What am I missing? It is not the browser, as I can see all the Croatian/Russian pages just fine. Server maybe?

Default Charset
When not specifying the charset in a php script, which one is used by default? A php server seems to have a default charset setting (see phpinfo below of my host's server). Code: php core default_charsetno value Apache Environment HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 HTTP Headers Information Accept-Charset ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 HTTP Headers Information Content-Type text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Though this one seems to have a default charset setting of none, does the http headers information mean that any website or php script accessed with the browser's address bar gets a iso 8859-1 by default anyway?

Debugging Charset
We've been building a pretty big web app here for internal use. SMS text messages come in from an aggregator and are stored in a MySQL 4 db. Our operators then deal with them using a web interface. The db is queried using PHP4 and the results output as XML which is then transformed using XSLT into XHTML. Now, in our testing environment everything works just fine. However, when we try and run it with actual live data, any incoming SMS message that contains a non-ASCII character breaks the system at the Sablotron stage (invalid token). Now the aggregating service is sending us the incoming messages UTF-8 encoded. The XML and XSL is all set up to be UTF-8. However, somewhere along the lines something is getting screwed up so that Sablotron barfs (typical examples are pound signs or euro signs). I'm having a hard time debugging this because as far as I can tell everything is set to be using UTF-8 by default. Clearly something isn't (MySQL possibly). I'd really appreciate some pointers for things to check.

I'm from Poland so i'm trying to use ISO-8859-2 charset style. In my PhpMyAdmin configuration file i have: /* From config.default.php */ $cfg['DefaultCharset'] = 'iso-8859-2' My apache 2.0 get on well with words like £,¹,¿,Ÿ...

Unknow Charset In Database
This problem of charset support seems to annoy many people, and I haven't found a solution so far. Our php.ini as well as page content type charset are iso-8859-15 (for support of Euro sign). In a form, users sometimes paste text written first in MS Word (even if I was not aware of this at first). Each input is html_entitized before INSERT in the MySQL database. It seems however that some browsers overwrite the charset encoding of the page, so that I'm not sure what the charset encoding of the input really is. But since I was not aware of the problem, I haven't checked the input on that. Anyhow, input validated error checking, and was written in database. Here again, I have no idea with which encoding. At least, I've seen that the charset Index of our MySQL version has no cp1252 nor utf-8, even if I'm not sure if that's an issue or not. Also, when looking at the content in MySQL, some of the "odd" MS Word characters are no entities, but just glyphs. Anyhow, when retrieved from database and echoed in a webpage, these are replaced by a "?", meaning at least that they are outside the iso-8859-15 repertoire. Trying to be smart, I did a utf8_decode($string); on a sample, but still got the "?" instead of curly quotes, em dashes, ellipsies etc. utf8_encode made it even worse! Even a mb_convert_encoding($string, "iso-8859-15"); on the same sample did not cure the problem, and also returned "?" as substitute character. As for pasting the "odd" sample in an input field and check that, this will not teach me much, since my configuration has nothing in common with the ones of our users around the world. I even know of someone dealing with Russia having an old French version of MS Office, enabling Cyrillic encoding, all of which is running on a Mac! God only knows what charset that might send through the browser when pasting text in a textarea. I also tested on just a sample, because the "oddity" can be nested into a very big text, and not always near the beginning of it. The problem has two sides: - first, I should find a way to echo correctly what's already stored in database; - second, I should find an efficient way to identify and convert 100% of the "odd" characters, so as to keep ALL of the input inside the iso-8859-15 repertoire before sending it to the database, to avoid further pollution. Even the very extensive explanations of ergophobe and some of his code samples did not help to solve this.

Convert STRING Charset
I have a MySQL database, which stores data in UTF-8 Unicode format. I have a webpage which has a form where I enter data to store the information and the CHARSET for that page is ISO-8859-1 (latin1). When I fetch data from my database on a page that has the CHARSET ISO-8859-1 the output is great! But when I now from another page has UTF-8 Unicode CHARSET set and fetch data from the database, some of the characters are messed up (like the Swedish Å Ä Ö characters). My question follows: Can I with PHP, fetch text from my database into a STRING and then "convert" from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 Unicode before outputting it to the page which has CHARSET UTF-8 Unicode? OR Do I have to "loop" through and replace "bad/wrong" characters into UTF-8 Unicode, and if so, HOW?

Charset And Special Symbols
So my language includes symbols like č,š,ž etc. Now I'm not so sure how to input them, I set charset to UTF-8, collation in db is utf8_unicode_ci but symbols get converted to some strange ones in db. So I was wondering that I convert them into ascii (č, š,ž) so that I can process them. How should I do this? if I use html_entity_decode(), then I need to change charset to iso-8859-1, which isn't big problem, but the thing is that all symbols are not converted, symbols like š, ž etc... I checked around and I looked into cms drupal and now I'm wondering how did they managed to use utf-8 charset, but still inputs stay unchanged, so if we insert č,š,ž it shows č,š,ž in database and this would be perfect for me.

Default Charset And Collation Sequence
I have been trying to figure out what charsets and collation sequences I need. For some reason phpmyadmin (running on my local machine) insists on giving me defaults of latin1_swedish and I can't seem to tell it how to give me something else as default. The problem with the swedish is that a query involving LIKE eg select * from dogbreeds where breedname like '%beagl% seems to fail with latin1_swedish . But if I change all the columns to UTF_8 it works OK. So, my question a) is there any reason why I should not use UTF-8 as the default? b) any clues as to how I can make phpMyAdmin or mysqlAdministrator see that as the default for each table and the database?

Charset Problem, Data From Mysql Appear Wrongly
I have build an application with php/mysql on my localhost Windows XP (english) My application lets you select the language which at the moment is Greek and English. My application is working fine on both languages but when i uploaded it to a remote server greek doesn't work. Actually the greek that are stored in the DB come up wrongly. I have read many other posts regarding this problem and i have tried many things but none works. First of all, i have checked that both mysql servers have the same character_set and character_set variables, so the remote DB supports Greek. Here is the code that initializes the DBConnection $DBLink = mysql_connect($DBHostIP,$DBUserName,$DBPassword) or die ("Could not connect on MySql Database"); mysql_select_db("sarafian_Agenda") or die("Could not select database"); which resides in a function. This was the original code with which only on my server worked in conjuction with the correct character set in the header part of the produced html Having read some articles i decided to try this code in the function $DBLink = mysql_connect($DBHostIP,$DBUserName,$DBPassword) or die ("Could not connect on MySql Database"); mysql_select_db("sarafian_Agenda") or die("Could not select database"); mysql_query("SET NAMES 'iso-8859-7'",$DBLink); ini_set('mbstring.internal_encoding','iso-8859-7'); ini_set('mbstring.http_input','iso-8859-7'); ini_set('mbstring.http_output','iso-8859-7'); ini_set('mbstring.internal_encoding','iso-8859-7'); header("Content-type: text/html;charset=iso-8859-7"); iso-8859-7 is the charcter set for greek. I have tried various combinations for the iso-8859-7 with utf-8 but i had no luck. I really cant understand the problem. The curious thing is that phpMyAdmin presents the data correctly. I have tried tracking down how it does it without succes. Both databases are above the 40010 version that phpadmin checks.

Missing Charset Or Bung Server Settings?
I was wondering if some one could take a look at the two example server outputs below, and help me understand what is wrong. I'm getting garbled characters. The php script I'm developing delivers XML to a client side application I'm also putting together in VB.NET .. Example 1 is my development PC.. It has a recent build of PDP & Apache. This output is good. Example 2 is the production server and is adding all sorts of strange characters, that are causing the XML to be invalid. I'm thinking it has somthing to do with the lack of charset in Ex2.. perhaps. If that is the case can I specify it in the .htaccess file because I dont have direct control over the production server. Has any one seen this before?
