So do u think its a good idea to try with php ? or i should try javascript or another source?

Static Classes Vs. Singleton Classes Vs. Globals
Sometimes I want to use certain data and functions anywhere in my code; for example, when writing logging routines. In PHP5 I could write a class with all static members and functions, a singleton class, or a regular class assigned to a global variable. What would be the advantages of each? In Java web-apps (or in non-web applications), these classes persist for much longer, so it's easier to see the reasons for using them. But in PHP, it seems like you could do pretty much the same thing with all three.

Classes Within Classes Scope Question
I have two classes, A and B. B is created as an object within A, but also needs to use a variable within A. How do you reference it? Example, class A { var somevar = "test"; A { $obj = new B (); } } class B { B { print ( * $somevar from the A class * ); } } The class B is trying to use the variable $somevar declared in class A. I just don't know how to use the variable.

Schedule
Currently, I have a database that stores a course schedule. For example: Course Title, Start Time (datetime), End Time (datetime), Mon (T/F), Tues (T/F), Wed (T/F) Thurs (T/F), Fri (T/F) I want to take this data and graph it as a visual calendar using tables. For example: Time Monday Tuesday Wednes ... 10:00AM WS1093 10:30AM WS1093 11:00AM WS1093 11:30AM 12:00PM EH2312 12:30PM EH2312 1:00PM EH2312 Something like that. What's the best way to do this? Clearly, I could make a an html calendar and load it up with a bunch of if statements but is there a more elegant way to fill in the calendar? Are there any classes available to easily do this? Code examples are very much welcomed!

Schedule And Php.exe
i am making an installer for a shoutcast control panel i have designed http://sourceforge.net/projects/cast-control it runs on both windows and linux I have made a bitrate controller that runs a batch file or cron job (depending on the operating system) which will run a php file with php. In the batch file i have c:/php/php.exe "D:/pathto/shoutcast_cpanel/bitrate/bitrate.php" The problem is that i cannot include the database.php file which is in the same directory as bitrate.php. I was wondering how to make this possible or at least include the database settings from the file somehow. The reason im not just running http://serverurl/bitrate/bitrate.php is because under windows it opens up a new windows in explorer for every time.

Wrong Dates In A Schedule
I am using the following code (many thanks for the code folks BTW) to generate 3 schedules in three tables one is a schedule with 7 day intervals and two are daily schedules. The two daily schedules seem to have out of sync dates at the start of each schedule. The dates look as if they may be dates from the preceding loop. I am presuming that I need to reset something after the completion of each loop but I am not sure what. $now = time(); $day = $now + 7*24*60*60; $cutoff = strtotime("+$months months"); while ($day <= $cutoff) { $date = date('Y-m-d', $day); $insert = "INSERT INTO daily_data SET subscr_id='$subscr_id', date='$date'"; mysql_query($insert); $day = $day + 7*24*60*60; } //then create a daily schedule in the excercise table for($i=0;$i<=($sched);$i++) mysql_query("INSERT INTO exercise_data SET subscr_id='$subscr_id', date=date_add(now(),INTERVAL LAST_INSERT_ID() DAY)"); //then create a daily schedule in the food and diet table for($i=0;$i<=($sched);$i++) mysql_query("INSERT INTO food_data SET subscr_id='$subscr_id', date=date_add(now(),INTERVAL LAST_INSERT_ID() DAY)");

How To Schedule Jobs On A Host?
I'm using a php hosting company for my website. It seems most php pages are user-event triggered, so it is difficult to schedule something to run regularly. For example, user puts something in discussion board, and I need to update my search index to include it. Since building index is pretty IO intensive and takes long time, I hope to do it once a day when traffic is very low or zero so it doesn't impact server performance. I can't really rely on user events to trigger such things. For example, user won't expect his click would trigger a 20 minute delay so I can piggy bag an index-build at the page handler, and there might not even be user clicking my site at the time I desire. Is scheduling for jobs (or something similar) achievable using regular PHP? (I don't have shell login, etc. for the typical PHP hosting service).

How Would Watchers Know, Without A Cyclic Check On MySQL Schedule Table About Task Validity?
I have developed a PHP-based website where a "planner" user can make up schedules of activities to be performed, storing them into MySQL tables. Afterwards, other "watcher" users can connect to the website and retrieve closest task due time, and keep retrieving next task after each one has been performed. The problem arises if the planner asynchronously changes the schedule, e.g. deleting the task "watcher" users consider to be the next one, or inserting a closer one. How would watchers know, without a cyclic check on MySQL schedule table about task validity? I would need a sort of asynchronous server-pushing tecnhique towards watcher's browser when any schedule modification occurs. Would you say this could be done with PHP alone?

PDF , Classes, And PHP
I'm stuck at first base here. Currently working on turning a rather static PDF building script into a more modular, OO PHP app. I have scaled this example down to the bare bones, trying to see what the heck is going wrong. It recognizes that is should spawn a pdf file, but then there is just no data. Nothing, no error, no helper app. I'm only a week or so into PDFs and only a couple of days into OO with PHP, so I'm on the lookout for the obvious. I do have PHP/PDF apps that run fine off the same system. Here is the class: <? error_reporting(E_ERROR); /******************************************** pdfReport.class.php - description ********************************************/ /* common functions / classes */ //class used to build rectangles - how exciting (-: class pdfReport{ //define our common properties //page properties var $pdf; function createPDF() { header("Content-type: application/pdf"); header("Content-Dispositions: filename=report.pdf"); $this -> pdf = pdf_open(); pdf_begin_page($pdf, 612, 792); }//end function createPDF function closePDF() { pdf_close($pdf); }//end function pdf_close function buildText() { pdf_set_font($pdf, "Times-Roman", 15, "host"); pdf_show_xy($pdf, "Active Case Review Quarterly Report", 25, 780); pdf_set_font($pdf, "Times-Roman", 26, "host"); }//end function buildText }//end class ?> And here is the page where I call the class: <? include("test.class.php"); //error_reporting(E_ERROR); //create a report $quarterlyPDF = new pdfReport; $quarterlyPDF -> createPDF(); $quarterlyPDF -> buildText(); $quarterlyPDF -> closePDF(); //end pdf document ?> thanks much for any input.

Value Of PHP Classes?
So PHP classes are pretty cool. But what is the value they provide? I understand the value of OO, but in the PHP environment, every class you instantiate lives only in the span of that request. There is no concept of singleton classes, or classes that remain across requests. The notion of allocating new memory for every instance of a class for every request seems wasteful. Thoughts?

Use And Need Of Classes In PHP
I know what object oriented programming is - I know what classes are and how they work - I'm just trying to figure out when they should be used in PHP... I have two questions: 1-How do you keep your objects? For example if we had a shopping cart, would we create a new shopping cart object and everytime the user adds/removes items update that same object? and how would you keep that object's information as the user browses through the site? Would you use serialize/unserialize session variable functions? or is there a better way? 2- For example, if we have a website that has users why would we want to make a "Users" class containing all the user information? Can't we just insert/retrieve data directly from the database? and when we get the data from the database what exactly is the point of creating an object out of them when we can just print it out? I guess my question is why would having a Users class be useful in a php web application? (assume users have name, username, password, address, etc.)

Using Two Classes
Lets say I have one class that deals with the database (class called SQL), a class that manages the user authentication (class called User) and another class that does something like getting all the options from the database for a poll (class called Options). The class Options is extended by another class called Poll which is extended by the class called Gateway, like this: class SQL {} class User {} class Gateway {} class Poll extends Gateway {} class Options extends Poll {} $sql = new SQL; $sql->connect(); $user = new User; $user->authenticate(); $poll = new Options; As you see, SQL and User are in no way connected to the other classes, however sometimes I'd like to use SQL inside the Options class. Would it be better to use global inside one of Options' function, like this: class Options { public function __construct() { global $sql; $sql->query(); } } ...or would it be better to let Gateway extend Users and SQL, like this: class SQL {} class User extends SQL {} class Gateway extends User {} class Poll extends Gateway {} class Options extends Poll {} // etc...

When To Use Classes
I've been developing websites using PHP for several years now, yet have never used OOP concepts. I am familiar with them, but have never had a need for them in my projects. However, I am now interested in using them to expand my knowledge, but unsure when they are really needed. Lets say I have a MySQL database with a "customer" table that stores all their information such as name, address, phone number, etc. The web page will do basic queries on the customer info, inserts, updates, selects, and so forth. I'm trying to incorporate classes with this, yet it seems like it's a lot more work than if I were simply using function to perform the actions on the database. I did some browsing on the web and it doesn't seem like classes are really needed when your dealing with data from a database (other than possible a class to connect to the db). Is this true? Any examples maybe?

PHP Classes
Today I looked at the documentation for PHP classes and now I would like to rewrite a member system and content mangement system using classes. In the past Ive used classes in java, and PHP seems very similar other than some syntax stuff. My primary concern with using classes is that if I wanted to make each member an object would it be possible to store that object in a mysql database, or would I have to have a method within my class to get all the data from the object and put it into the database, and another to then later get the data from the database and construct the object.

PHP And Classes
Specefically, how do they work? php.net describes them as a collection of variables and functions working with these variables. So far I'm doing this with collections of function and include'' statements. For any given operation, a link will include a $_GET['thing'] variable. The index then have: if ((isset($_GET['thing'])) && ($_GET['thing'] == "linkname")) { include 'useful_pile_of_functions.php' } This method seems to me to be somewhat like using includes as classes, as the called file contains everything needed to support the users desired function. How is using classes better than this method?
