Hello,
I want to be able to read any random RSS/ATOM XML file. That would mean I would not not know the tags, start the loop and the fields. How do I go about doing it in PHP.
Thanks
Jean
I want to create my own RSS/XML feed. I fetch data from the database to display, but keep getting invalid character errors. If the string has an ampersand or other strange characters in it, the XML will be invalid.
I tried using urlencode and htmlentities, but these don't capture all possible characters which need to be escaped. Does anyone know of a PHP function which will prepare a string for XML output?
I have always been confused that .e,g in php i have sql statement
$qry = "select * from table where id = $id";
now can i insert "$" directly inside the quotes or i have to use
$qry = "select * from table where id =".$id." ";
or
$qry = 'select * from table where id = $id';
or
$qry = 'select * from table where id = '$id'';
Which is correct
I'm building an iPhone app, which will allow users to log in to a PHP web server that authenticates the user and starts a session.
My idea for managing a session is to create a singleton User class that has a sharedLogin method. Would it be prudent to store the session variable in the shared instance in order to maintain the session?
i'm developing an iPhone app which communicates with a remote DB.
for that purpose I'm looking for a web hosting service which inclues the following specs:
latest PHP
cUrl
SSL support
mySql
cron
live support
Max uptime
great money per value ratio
The main functionality is communication with the DB and displaying some info on the app.
It is important that the web hosting provider will be highly reliable.
Are there any providers who give some free usage before starting to pay?
Thanks
I've been using CodeIgniter for some quite time, and I've been extremely happy with its Active Record stuff. It's great to query the database with it.
Recently I've started a new project and I can't use such a framework anymore.
Is there a simple PHP Active Record library that does its job and gets out of the way (similar to CodeIgniter's version)?

How can i do it with php on my site
I have two Fedora-based apache webservers making the same SSL PUT/POST calls with php/cURL. One works fine, but with the other the call succeeds but takes a VERY long time to return a response (~10 min). (GETs don't seem affected)
The working server's cURL uses OpenSSL for SSL, while the non-working version uses a later version of cURL that uses NSS for SSL
I know nothing about SSL implementations or their effect on cURL. What would cause such a significant delay in SSL PUT/POST responses?
Any suggestions appreciated- Thanks--
Consider I have two arrays:
$friends = Array('foo', 'bar', 'alpha');
$attendees = Array('foo', 'bar');
Now I need to populate a new array $nonattendees which contains only the elements which are in $friends array and not in $attendees array. i.e, $nonattendees array should be populated with 'alpha'.
Is there any in built array operation available in PHP to achieve the above functionality or should I write my own for loops?

I'm trying to have an accurate Unix timestamp values for:
today,
this week,
this month,
this year
There are a few snags however:
- Today should be everything since last midnight
- This week should start on the last/this monday
- This month (should know if its 30/31 days or 28/29 days feb)
- This should be the very beginning of the current year up til now
I want to do this without mysql at all, purely in php as I need it as an accurate Unix timestamp to assign to a variable. Any Idea how these timestamps periods can be calculated?
Hey,
The PHP SOAP client is constructing a soap request that uses "href" to reference other parts of the message. The web service i'm trying to consume does not like this. Is there a way to force it to construct the soap envelope without references?
Thanks in advance
In my mind, a web app something that runs continuously; therefore, I'm confused by documentation pages that talk about the "end" of a PHP script (eg this one). Such references seem to refer to the end of each web request, but if the script ends there, doesn't that mean that the OS has to setup a whole new process for each request? That seems unlikely, because spinning up a whole new process is expensive, and be very inefficient for the whole site.

I am relatively new to php and have a feeling that I am going the long way round when displaying data from mysql.
I have a table a I want to show a few fields from my database.
How would I achieve this without having to echo every bit of the table???
Here is the code:
<?php
$query1 = mysql_send("SELECT firstname, lastname, email, user, country FROM customers WHERE id='".$_COOKIE['custid']."'");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query1))
{
echo ' <table id="account_table" style="width:550px; border:none; ">
<tr>
<td width="155">Contact Name</td>';
echo '<td width="335">';
echo $row['firstname'] ;
echo ' ';
echo $row['lastname'];
echo '</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Email Address</td>
<td>';
echo $row['email'];
echo ' </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Username</td>
<td>' ;
echo $row['user'];
echo '</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Country</td>
<td>';
echo $row['country'];
echo '</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Time Zone</td>
<td>GMT+1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Activated</td>
<td>16 Dec 2009</td>
</tr>
</table>';
}
?>
