PHP ToString() equivalent
- by Antoine Aubry
How do I convert the value of a PHP variable to string? I was looking for something better than concatenating with an empty string:
$myText = $myVar . '';
like the ToString() method in Java or .NET.

How to explain DRM cannot work?
- by jerryjvl
I am looking for the shortest comprehensive way to explain to people that are trying to use DRM as a technology to prevent users from using their data in some fashion deemed undesirable, why their solution cannot work by definition. Ideally I'd like something that: Covers why technically it is impossible to have people access local data, but only in such-and-such a way Imparts an understanding of why this is, to avoid follow-on "But what if" rebuttals Is intuitive enough and short enough that even a politician (j/k) could grasp it When faced with this situation I try to be clear and concise, but I usually end up failing at least on one of these points. I'd really like to have a 'stock' answer that I can use in the future.Read the article

Javascript (JSON) Objects: Get Parent
- by Dänu
Hey Guys I got some question about nested javascript objects (is it me, google or is javascript quite poorly documented?). Now, I got the following (nested) object: obj: { subObj: { 'hello world' } }; next thing I do is to reference the subobject like this: var s = obj.subObj; now what I would like to do, is to get a reference to the object obj out of the variable s. Something like: var o = s.parent; Is this somehow possible?Read the article

How to assign a value of a property to a var ONLY if the object isn't null
- by Blankman
In my code, is there a shorthand that I can use to assign a variable the value of a object's property ONLY if the object isn't null? string username = SomeUserObject.Username; // fails if null I know I can do a check like if(SomeUserObject != null) but I think I saw a shorthand for this kind of test. I tried: string username = SomeUserObject ?? "" : SomeUserObject.Username; But that doesn't work.Read the article

Bash PWD Shortening
- by dlibby00
I'm looking for a bash function that will shorten long path names to keep my PS1 variable from getting excessively long. Something along the lines of: /this/is/the/path/to/a/really/long/directory/i/would/like/shortened might end up as: /t../i../t../p../to/a/r../l../d../i/w../like/shortened something that the took the path and a maximum acceptable number of characters to shorten to would be perfect for my .bashrc file.Read the article

dao as a member of a servlet - normal?

I guess, DAO is thread safe, does not use any class members. So can it be used without any problem as a private field of a Servlet ? We need only one copy, and multiple threads can access it simultaneously, so why bother creating a local variable, right?Read the article

How to increase the volume gain when viewing online flash video?
- by Nick000
When watching online Flash videos on Youtube, Dailymotion, etc... sometimes the videos are recorded at low volume. The thing is that, I have a HP Notebook with good enough audio volume, but when I watch these "low volume" videos the sound level is really low, even when I have the volume at 100%. So I am looking for a way to increase the volume gain (like VLC player where you can increase it to 200%), BUT while watching it live on Youtube... that is, I don't want to download the video on my PC. Is there a software that can do that? Maybe an advanced flash video player that integrates to browser? or some other software to increase the volume gain overall on my laptop? My Specs: HP Pavilion Notebook, Audio: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC (integrated), Vista 64-bit, 4 GB RAM, etc.....Read the article

Realtime MySQL search results on an advanced search page
- by Andrew Heath
I'm a hobbyist, and started learning PHP last September solely to build a hobby website that I had always wished and dreamed another more competent person might make. I enjoy programming, but I have little free time and enjoy a wide range of other interests and activities. I feel learning PHP alone can probably allow me to create 98% of the desired features for my site, but that last 2% is awfully appealing: The most powerful tool of the site is an advanced search page that picks through a 1000+ record game scenario database. Users can data-mine to tremendous depths - this advanced page has upwards of 50 different potential variables. It's designed to allow the hardcore user to search on almost any possible combination of data in our database and it works well. Those who aren't interested in wading through the sea of options may use the Basic Search, which is comprised of the most popular parts of the Advanced search. Because the advanced search is so comprehensive, and because the database is rather small (less than 1,200 potential hits maximum), with each variable you choose to include the likelihood of getting any qualifying results at all drops dramatically. In my fantasy land where I can wield AJAX as if it were Excalibur, my users would have a realtime Total Results counter in the corner of their screen as they used this page, which would automatically update its query structure and report how many results will be displayed with the addition of each variable. In this way it would be effortless to know just how many variables are enough, and when you've gone and added one that zeroes out the results set. A somewhat similar implementation, at least visually, would be the Subtotal sidebar when building a new custom computer on IBuyPower.com For those of you actually still reading this, my question is really rather simple: Given the time & ability constraints outlined above, would I be able to learn just enough AJAX (or whatever) needed to pull this one feature off without too much trouble? would I be able to more or less drop-in a pre-written code snippet and tweak to fit? or should I consider opening my code up to a trusted & capable individual in the future for this implementation? (assuming I can find one...) Thank you.Read the article

How can I find the dimensions of a matrix in Python?
- by PBD10017
How can I find the dimensions of a matrix in Python. Len(A) returns only one variable. Edit: Hi Thanks. close = dataobj.get_data(timestamps, symbols, closefield) Is (I assume) generating a matrix of integers (less likely strings). I need to find the size of that matrix, so I can run some tests without having to iterate through all of the elements. As far as the data type goes, I assume it's an array of arrays (or list of lists).Read the article

PHP or MySql error; Possible to display an "error page" in browser?

My classifieds website uses mainly PHP and MySql. On error, (for example if a variable isn't found), I would like to have an error-page to show, is this possible? And I mean for every error to point to the same error-page. I am thinking about htaccess, but maybe there are other ways also? Same with MySql, how is it done there? ThanksRead the article

Switching MySql Replication Format
- by NNN
I'm currently using statement-based replication. After upgrading to MySql 5.1, I'm considering using row-based replication. After reading the docs it seems that you can change the format of the master on the fly. Will the slave automatically adapt to whatever type of binary log it is sent? Do I have to make any changes to the slave or master to get ready for switching or can I simply modify the binlog_format variable on the master?Read the article

What alternatives to __attribute__ exist on 64-bit kernels?
- by Saifi Khan
Hi: Is there any alternative to non-ISO gcc specific extension __attribute__ on 64-bit kernels ? Three types that i've noticed are: function attributes, type attributes and variable attributes. eg. i'd like to avoid using __attribute__((__packed__)) for structures passed over the network, even though some gcc based code do use it. Any suggestions or pointers on how to entirely avoid __attribute__ usage in C systems/kernel code ? thanks Saifi.Read the article

pagination - 10 pages per page
- by arthur
I have a pagination script that displays a list of all pages like so: prev [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] next But I would like to only show ten of the numbers at a time: prev [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] next How can I accomplish this? Here is my code so far: <?php /* Set current, prev and next page */ $page = (!isset($_GET['page']))? 1 : $_GET['page']; $prev = ($page - 1); $next = ($page + 1); /* Max results per page */ $max_results = 2; /* Calculate the offset */ $from = (($page * $max_results) - $max_results); /* Query the db for total results. You need to edit the sql to fit your needs */ $result = mysql_query("select title from topics"); $total_results = mysql_num_rows($result); $total_pages = ceil($total_results / $max_results); $pagination = ''; /* Create a PREV link if there is one */ if($page > 1) { $pagination .= '< a hr_ef="?page='.$prev.'">Previous</a> '; } /* Loop through the total pages */ for($i = 1; $i <= $total_pages; $i++) { if(($page) == $i) { $pagination .= $i; } else { $pagination .= '< a hr_ef="index.php?page='.$i.'">'.$i.'</a>'; } } /* Print NEXT link if there is one */ if($page < $total_pages) { $pagination .= '< a hr_ef="?page='.$next.'"> Next</a>'; } /* Now we have our pagination links in a variable($pagination) ready to print to the page. I pu it in a variable because you may want to show them at the top and bottom of the page */ /* Below is how you query the db for ONLY the results for the current page */ $result=mysql_query("select * from topics LIMIT $from, $max_results "); while ($i = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo $i['title'].'<br />'; } echo $pagination; ?>Read the article

Passing function-specific variables
- by Simon Carlson
Say I got two functions that looks like this: function main(Index) { doStuff(); } function doStuff() { if(Index == 1) { document.write("Hello world!") } } And some HTML: <input type="button" value="Click me" onclick="main(1)" /> I realize this is a very stupid way to use function-specific variables and such, but it's just out of curiosity. So is it possible to pass the variable Index from the main function to the doStuff function?Read the article
