I wrote a html scraper to scrape my various social identites, so I can make a real time 'biography' website.
However after using php curl_exec, I find that texts that I have quoted, end up being formatted in a weird character set.
ex: "I love dogs" gets formatted to ’I love dogs ’
"I hate cheese" gets formatted to “I hate cheese�
How do I either scrub these characters, or set curl not to format quotes like this.
Also, I have turned off magic_quotes.
I have to build an application using Maven for PHP that has multiple modules.
The scenario in which the maven seems to not work is this: I have a common module and a client module depending on the first one.
When doing "mvn site" on the client module which depends on the common module, the test fails to see the paths to the common module. Is there a flow in my build or this is just not possible?

Hello Guys,
We have been using PHP/MySQL for our web application which has been growing a lot, the database is around 4-5GB and one of the table is 2GB sometimes, hence slowing down whenever any queries to that table is called.
Should we just try to optimize, or are we using MySQL above its limit? Will switching our web app to .NET/MSSQL resolve the issues?
Thanks
I'm trying to upload to AWS S3 by using thier AWS for Android SDK but both sample project within SDK and my project give the following error on devices while emulator runs without problem. So there's no problem with my AWS account.

Upload Code :
s3Client.createBucket(Constants.getBucket());
PutObjectRequest por = new PutObjectRequest(Constants.getBucket(), record.getFile().getName(), record.getFile());
s3Client.putObject(por);
Any help is appreciated.
Hey,
I'm working on some old(ish) software in PHP that maintains a $cache array to reduce the number of SQL queries. I was thinking of just putting memcached in its place and I'm wondering whether or not to get rid of the internal caching. Would there still be a worthwihle performance increase if I keep the internal caching, or would memcached suffice?
Traits have been one of the biggest additions for PHP 5.4. I know the synatax and understand the idea behind traits, like horizontal code re-usage for common stuff like logging, security, caching etc.
However, I still dont know yet how I would make use of traits in my projects.
Are there any open source projects that already use traits? Any good articles/reading material on how to structure architectures using traits?
I have a string which contains only numbers. Now I want to remove all leading 0s from that string
For example:
input: 000000001230
output: 1230
input: 01000
output: 1000
Is there any function in PHP/Zend for this?
Thanks
Hi All,
Using Reflection in PHP I can dynamically create a object like so
$target = 'core_domain_Person';
$reflect = new ReflectionClass($target);
$obj = $reflect->newInstance();
I would like to replicate this same concept in JavaScript is there a way to do this out of the box? Or is there a way to replicate what Reflection is doing?

I have a PHP script on a webserver.
This file is invoked via the shell by another program but it could still be run by the webserver in response to an HTTP request.
How can the script determine the way it was invoked?
I have a step 1 page, and a step 2 page. I want to take the information from step 1 page, then step 2 page, and save as session information (which i have already done). Once this information is all gathered i then want to be able to submit it to another php page using HTTP POST.
I'm using WordPress as a CMS, and I want to extend one of its classes without having to inherit from another class; i.e. I simply want to "add" more methods to that class:
class A {
function do_a() {
echo 'a';
}
}
then:
function insert_this_function_into_class_A() {
echo 'b';
}
(some way of inserting the latter into A class)
and:
A::insert_this_function_into_class_A(); # b
Is this even possible in tenacious PHP?
I am new to coding and would just like to know a bit more about frameworks. How does a framework help you code and what exactly is it? Such as Zend for php.
I am currently building a site and all the books I have read on PHP so far are just on functionality and not much on security. Is there a book that deals specifically with making your code/site secure? I don't want to go public and the next day have all my code changed or my database erased by SQL injection.
thanks
Hi,
I have a PHP script that runs database queries. Now, if a query fails, should I trigger an error or throw an exception? I noticed that if I do the latter, the script execution will stop after facing the exception.
My code is as follows:
if (!$this->connection[0]->query($this->query))
throw new Exception($this->connection[0]->error);
What are the pros and cons of using exceptions for this kind of cases (failed queries)?
Money, Staff, Skill and preference to open source or commercial is neutral. Lets take the best of the best programmers (for arguments sake) and think about this:
What will perform better overall:
PHP & MySQL
or
ASP.Net & Microsoft SQL
(I don't want biased answers, just
looking for Performance, and Speed).
I need to return a JSON encoded response to a flash http get request.
In ASP.NET, I do this with a ASHX handler.
What's the PHP equivalent ?
I mean in order that I only get JSON back, and not the <html> etc.
