<kuja> No, the wall.
<kuja> The very big black wall surrounding this channel... yes, I'm talking to you.
<kioto> you're fun of pink floyd
<kuja> If you can't form proper English (at least where I can understand half of what you're saying), please don't speak.
<mjec> kuja: had a good day then? ;)
<kuja> Just another day :P
<kuja> I need a shower.
<mjec> bathroom's at the end of the hall on your left, there should be fresh towels in there
<CarlH> !rules
<CarlH> !guidelines
<kioto> kuja i need to choose an abstract layer to use
<AzMoo> Does XPath even work with RDF? :\
<CarlH> ok cool, no rule against asking for PHP workers :) --- Anyone here want to work for me as a PHP coder? if so msg me
<whyz> hey.. the $_FILES array is just for files posted via forms, right? Am i right in thinking that messing with $_FILES manually would be a bad idea? (i.e. adding stuff to it)
<kuja> CarlH: Are you stupid? Do people read the topic at all?
<mjec> whyz: well, it's not good practice to do so... why would you?
<AzMoo> CarlH, Guideline 7
<CarlH> grrr -- thought I read the whole thing, 'job postings' missed my eyes altogther ---
<eml> 'e dot ahlback[ at ]muff dot com' <- I compare two exactly-the-same strings like these, but with strtolower() before, how can they not be equal?
<CarlH> there is one PHP channel on one net where that isn't against the rules thought this was it
<Getty> whyz: why you would do it?
<whyz> mjec: there's this project i'm supposed to develop further. It relies on dump variables, among those $_GET, $_POST and $_FILES .. in order to edit the information i must either mess around in those variables, or take on a new approach
<AzMoo> CarlH, thats' efnet
<Getty> whyz: aehm
<Getty> whyz: why you want to work directly with the variables?
<CarlH> AzMoo: efnet ?? are you sure
<whyz> ie the variable dumps are used instead of databases or xmls or anything
<cb921> i think that if i were looking for work then carlh's propposition would have been welcome... i am here, sitting and reading and working and hey, cash. why not? does it really become a problem?
<mjec> eml: var_dump() them to see if they really ARE identical. There might be whitespace
<Getty> whyz: my constructor of main has the following: $this->POST = $_POST and so on
<AzMoo> CarlH, no, vague recollection. It's quite likely I'm wrong.
<Getty> whyz: so why you just THINK about using the internal variables as your storage?
<Getty> whyz: never thought 2 steps further?
<kuja> cb921: Questioning, debating, arguing the rules will not get you anywhere.
<whyz> Getty: i'm not THINKING about storing them that way, they already are
<Getty> whyz: you want to change $_FILES
<Getty> whyz: thats the point
<cb921> kuja well hell where do you think I am trying to get?
<kioto> oki kuja i have take some stuff from this intro http://netevil.org/downloads/Introducing-PDO.ppt
<Getty> whyz: so copy it before, change whatever you like and let always your function NOT access the original one
<kuja> cb921: Straight out of this channel. You could do yourself a favor.
<Getty> whyz: thats a solution, its clean and straight........ what is your excuse now?
<guru[1]> hi monday
<guru[1]> hi sahithya
<monday> hi guru
<eml> string(31) "e dot ahlback[ at ]muff dot com" string(31) "e dot ahlback[ at ]muff dot com" <- if $var == $var2 should return true yes?
<TML> eml: Yes.
<eml> ah, it does, perfect :]
<eml> hehe :P once again I
<Syruss> what's the best/easiest way to check for the existance of a mysql table in php4?
<eml> I'm acting drunk, can't even write
<MBzle> guys, how do i retrieve the total amount of rows?
<MBzle> mysql_num ?
<MBzle> i mean: mysql_num_rows right?
<AzMoo> tias
<Frixon> MBzle: I think you want SELECT COUNT(*)
<Frixon> That's somehow optimized.
<TML> Unless you're *also* going to return the rows themselves.
<TML> In which case you don't want to run two queries.
<MBzle> Frixon, thx... this is what i wanted
<MBzle> TML, thx
<MBzle> but one more thing: after doing the COUNT(*) how can i insert the result in a variable?
<Frixon> The same way as with a normal SELECT.
<Frixon> You can also use SELECT COUNT(*) AS yourName FROM ...
<Frixon> So you can access it via yourName
<MBzle> Frixon, after doing: mysql_fetch_array ?
<TML> Yes.
<MBzle> TML, aight...
<Faces\away> so, i have this preg_replace, and i want to replace using a $text[array][key] where array and key are $1 and $2, but i don't know how to put $1 and $2 in the call to the array
<Faces\away> $text["string"] = preg_replace("`\[\%ts\:(.+?)\:(.+?)\%\]`i","<b>$text[{$1}][{$2}]</b>",$text["string"]);
<Faces\away> is what i've got, and i've tried varios combinations of "{ }" ".$var[$1... etc
<Frixon> Faces\away: I'm not sure if the variable interpolation works that way.
<Faces\away> so how could it be done?
<Frixon> Have you first tried preg_match if your pattern is correct?
<Faces\away> yeh
<Faces\away> if i do just "<b> $1 $2 </b>" it works fine
<Frixon> You could use preg_match, using the optional last parameter, create the replacement from within these results and afterwards perform a regular replace.
<Frixon> Or else. Try "<b>".$array[$1]."....
<Frixon> Btw...what do you expect of those curly braces?
<TML> Faces\away: You shouldn't do what you're trying to do, it can lead to bad, bad things. But the answer to the question is that you have use a special modifier on the pattern that tells PHP to eval() the replacement string.
<mazza[W]> they'll run away in fright
<Faces\away> hm, so what other way is there?
<Frixon> Ah OK. That's what I meant by interpolation. :)
<Faces\away> preg_match_ all then go through?
<TML> Faces\away: I liked Frixon's suggestion. It sounds nicely constructed.
<Faces\away> kk, i'll look into it, thanking you
<Frixon> Hm. Didn't know the "e" modifier. :)
<TML> Frixon: Sorry for stripping away your blissful ignorance. :)
<four_eyes> how do i encode & or ? in the source code? anyone?
<TML> four_eyes: php.net/rawurlencode
<four_eyes> ok
<four_eyes> will it be possible to link to an external site from my site, wherein i can encode/decode the & and ? that is in the url of the external site?
<four_eyes> :d confusing sentence. :))
<ace_me> hi all
<four_eyes> lolz what a msg style :))
<ace_me> :)
<four_eyes> javascript?
<ace_me> not necesarly but yes please
<ace_me> is better not posting if he doesen't press a key
<four_eyes> ?
<Frixon> ace_me: What excatly is your problem? That an empty input field can occure?
<dexta> englighten us
<ace_me> thank you frixon
<Frixon> No problem.
<Frixon> I don't know what I did...but OK.
<ace_me> I've just inserted an if empty(... :)
<Frixon> I wouldn't do that.
<ace_me> in fact that was the problem
<Frixon> User != '' instead of emtpy()
<Frixon> -r
<Frixon> empty() has a very strange way to determine what's empty and what's not. For example "0" (string) is seen to be empty.
<Frixon> And since $_POST data is always a string, you can use != ''
<kuja> Frixon: It's not strange.
<Frixon> kuja: Yes...but not always useful.
<Frixon> I really don't like empty()
<ace_me> In my case was a id of an item
<ace_me> so it's ok with empty ! ( a search function)
<kuja> Frixon: (array() || 0 || null || false || '' || "") === false
<Frixon> kuja: I know what empty()n does, thanks.
<kuja> So, that's what empty() does, no abnormality.
<ace_me> I will fill it with current id and set a msg to please input a sequence
<kuja> Frixon: Well, just pointing out that even if you don't use empty, and just do if ('') it's still false :) ...I know what you mean, though.
<Frixon> irb(main):002:0> "0".empty?
<Frixon> => false
<Frixon> That's how I like it to be :)
<kuja> Ruby's types are different.
<Frixon> I know.
<kuja> Ruby doesn't have a concept of "undefined variables"
<kuja> foo.nil? #=> true
<Frixon> irb(main):003:0> defined? a
<Frixon> => nil
<kuja> I like Ruby's way of doing it too.
<kuja> Less things to worry about, and you're always sure that nil and false will always fail on boolean expressions.
<kuja> Whilst everything else is true.
<Frixon> Well...Ruby plays in another league than PHP does. :)
<kuja> PHP is no comparison to Ruby :)
<kuja> Ruby and Python are comparable, but Python and Ruby are not comparable to PHP.
<kuja> Simply, cause PHP is naturally meant to work with web applications, while Python and Ruby naturally aren't. :P
<Frixon> kuja: Have you had a look at rails yet?
<Frixon> kuja: Fantastic framework. Very powerful.
<kuja> Frixon: Yes, but that's a framework, not the bare language.
<kuja> I'm saying you can't compare PHP and Ruby as bare languages, cause PHP will always be better at what it does.
<kuja> And vice versa, Ruby will always be better than PHP at what it does :)
<Frixon> Yes sure. PHP was designed for web applications.
