PHP Equivalent To The Asp Function GetClientUsername
I'm making a site running mainly on a intranet with all NT machines on it.. Every user has his own username of course, and i would like to make a poll system which only let persons vote once, just logging the IP or placing a cookie won't really work, because every computer keeps getting other users (still with the same ip though). Personally i think that getting the clientusername would be the easiest, but i just don't know how to do that in php.

PHP Equivalent Of TCL Command "subst"?
I need to find a PHP equivalent to a very familiar TCL command "subst" (see http://www.hume.com/html84/mann/subst.html ). This command will take a string and evaluate anything TCL inside of it and return values. for example, if this were my line: [TCL] set word {World} set line {Hello #word#} regsub -all {#([^#]+)#} $line {$$1} line return [subst $line] [/TCL] My return should be Hello World and not Hello #word# Nor Hello $word Because of a requirement for my app I am having to do the same kind of substitution variation, however, I am having to do it entirely in PHP. I don't know of any PHP manual operated command close to TCL's subst() but I'm open to the idea. Here is my class method that fails to do so: Code: ( php )

Tracert :: Passing Command To Command Prompt Via Exec
I want to execute a "tracert" command in the command prompt via php (using windows) I've managed to use passthru() to open the command prompt (but it doesn't allow me to use it) and when I close it, it outputs the command prompt output in the browser. I don't mind whether the result is passed back to the browser to stays in the command prompt window (but that would use exec() I would think). So how can I tell the command prompt that launches to execute the line tracert 192.190.201.273 So far my experimental code is: <?php passthru("c:windowssystem32cmd.exe"); ?> EDIT: my backslashes have been stripped from the path, but you know what I mean!

Equivalent Of PS In PHP?
I am looking for classes/modules in PHP that can give me output similar to the output of unix command "ps". Additionally, are there classes/modules that can kill processes based on process IDs? Though I can execute a system command, I do not have a consistent method that will work across platforms like Linux, SunOS, AIX, HP-UX and Windows* and was hoping that PHP will help reduce complexity.

Clearerr() Equivalent In PHP?
Does PHP have a clearerr() equivalent for file streams ? It allows to do things such as "tail -f", by resetting the error status and dozing for few seconds. I didn't see any equivalents in the function list (www.php.net) void clearerr( FILE *stream); The function clearerr clears the end-of-file and error indicators for the stream pointed to by stream.

PHP Equivalent Of ASP Code
Im trying to duplicate this ASP code in PHP. Basically its a form of 10 records pulled from an MySQL table. The form lets the user update all 10 records at once if they want to. Each text box I name using the ID of the database record and the Database Field. Example: 3|Name (3 is the ID and Name is the database field) When the form is submitted this code is run: for x = 1 to request.form.count() if request.form.key(x) <> "Submit" then curFld = request.form.key(x) aryCats = split(curFld, "|") ID = aryCats(1) Field = aryCats(2) Data = request.form(curFld) strSQL = "UPDATE " & Table & " Set " & Field & "= '" & Data "' WHERE ID = " & ID 'response.write strSQL conn.execute strSQL end if next The code loops thru all the objects on the form. It takes each object name and splits it into an array using the | in the object name. Is there anything in PHP that will count the number of objects on a form and let you loop thu them like this script?

JSP Equivalent To PHP $_SERVER?

Is There A PHP Equivalent Of Server.Transfer (in ASP.NET)
I've only been at PHP for a couple of days, and I'm trying to get some stuff done as fast as possible. I'm an experienced ASP.NET programmer, and am trying to find some equivalent stuff in PHP. In ASP.NET there is a method called Server.Transfer which transfers the request to a different page from the one that the user requested, but without doing a redirect. The user gets sent headers as though they were seeing the page they requested. Does PHP have such a function? I have seen the function... header('Location: page.php'); ....but these seems to be a redirect, which is not the same thing. I don't want the headers altered as I want the search engines to see the page with the original URL.

Php Equivalent To Perl's || Behavior?
one feature of perl I'm desparately missing in php is using || to assign the first non-empty value in a list to a variable. For example, # perl example 1 $a = 1; $b = 2; $c = $a || $b; print $c; # displays 1 # perl example 2 $a = 1; $b = 2; $c = $d || $b; print $c; # displays 2, since $d is empty # perl example 3 $a = 'apple' $b = 'banana' $c = 'cherry' $d = $a || $b || $c; print $d; # displays 'apple' # perl example 4 $a = '' $b = '' $c = 'cherry' $d = $a || $b || $c; print $d; # displays 'cherry' This is such a handy language construct. Is there any such php equivalent that accomplishes this? I've already written a function to do it. (Like this: $d = value($a, $b, $c). But making value() visible everywhere is something I'd rather avoid if there's something built-in to php.)

PHP Equivalent Of MySQL STR_TO_DATE()?
I have an application where I would like to be able to allow the user to specify the date format used throughout the program (for internationalization). Then, on a date entry field, I can specify the date format on a MySQL SELECT to get the date in the proper format. The Javascript date selector I am using allows me to specify the format for selecting the date. Where I am having problems is posting the date back to MySQL. If I was using v4 of MySQL, I could use STR_TO_DATE(). However, I need to be able to support version 3 of MySQL, so I need a PHP equivalent to convert the date in the user-defined format to the MySQL date format. I can use date() to get a timestamp into the proper format, but how do I get the user-defined format into a timestamp? strtotime() was the closest I could find, but that doesn't look like it is going to work for any format.

Array_pop Equivalent For SESSION
I understand how array_push() and array_pop() work on simple arrays, but I need something like this to manage $_SESSION arrays. So far, the best I can come up with is using unset() unset($_SESSION[$key]); But, I would like to use the push/pop functionality for $_SESSION arrays. I guess it is as easy as writing my own function to simulate it, but it would be nice to harness this power if it already exists in a predefined function. I scoured the us.php.net website, and to no avail. Sessions don't seem to be equipped with this. Or, perhaps I am doing it wrong.

Simple Mod_rewrite Equivalent
I've got a site which is visible with three different domain names that I'd like to consolidate into one. Unfortunately, I've got a bug with mod_rewrite on the server, so I'm looking for a way with PHP. I've done this, which appears to work, for the home page: <?php if ($_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]!= "www.example.com") { header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently"); header("Location: http://www.example.com/"); exit; } else {}; ?> That sorts it out for one page, but I'd like to extend it to be placed in an include on every page. Is there a way of doing that which would redirect automatically with a 301 to the same page name in each case.

Trying To Convert String To Decimal Equivalent

Can anyone tell me how to convert this value?
