Hi All,

I have been handed a site from a friend of mine to fix as there were a few errors on it. I have only had very little experience with php coding and believe im doing well so far as i only have one more error to rectify on this particular site. Is any one familiar with the following error codes and how to resolve them?


Warning: include(list_.inc.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/user/public_html/list.php on line 13

Warning: include(list_.inc.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/user/public_html/list.php on line 13

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'list_.inc.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/user/public_html/list.php on line 13

Iv done a bit of research and to me it doesn't seem like a huge fix and i think its something i am capable of doing myself i just need a bit of guidance. Any help greatly appreciated.

I have a form with a table that contains ONLY dropdown menus for users to select quantities from 25 dinner items.  It contains some Javascript, but nothing fancy.  In an effort to establish my database and TEST to see how some PHP functions might respond so I could improve my form, I created a mini version of the db in MySQL.

But when I click the submit button, the page blinks, the address bar fills with field names, but there is no connect.  No error messages.  No data transfer.  NO NOTHING!

I searched the web and copied a form and plugged it in (an html form, a php insert file, and a MySQL database) and it worked fine.  I peared down my page to mirror it, and still, no success.

What little detail am I missing??  If I have 25 fields but create a db for the first 6, should it function?
If I reduce it and try to re-use the same db, am I persuing a problem?
I've tried error trapping and changing the form inputs, but it just still doesn't connect.

Please help!

Hey guys im having 2 minor problems with my script if someone can give me some advise please? (all 2 problems are commented on the script itself)   1.  highlighting string characters when typed. 2. also im trying to add "Hide Suggestions" at the bottom of my menu so people can turn on/off autocomplete

{	
	function search_autocomplete(selector, tags, default_value)
	{	
		
		$('#' + selector).focus(function() 
		{
			if($('#' + selector).val() == default_value)
			{
				$('#' + selector).val('');

	                     {"label":"XBOX One", "type":"Electronics"},
	                     {"label":"Nike", "type":"Clothing & Footwear"}];
	
	search_autocomplete('query', availableTags, 'Search...');
});

Good day dear community.

I need to build a function which parses the domain from a url. I have used various ways to parse html sources. But this one is is a bit tricky! See the target i want to parse - it has some invaild Markup:

http://www.schulministerium.nrw.de/BP/SchuleSuchen?action=644.0013008534253&SchulAdresseMapDO=194190

well what do you think - can i apply this code here


<?php
require_once('config.php'); // call config.php for db connection
$filename = "url.txt"; // Include the txt file which have urls
$each_line = file($filename);
foreach($each_line as $line_num => $line)
{
    $line = trim($line);
    $content = file_get_contents($line);
    //echo ($content)."<br>";
    $pattern = '/<td>(.*?)<\/td>/si';
    preg_match_all($pattern,$content,$matches);

    foreach ($matches[1] as $match) {
        $match = strip_tags($match);
        $match = trim($match);
        //var_dump($match);
        $sql = mysqli_query("insert into tablename(contents) values ('$match')");
        //echo $match;
    }
}
?>

Can anybody help me  here to get a better regex - or a better way to parse this site ...

I just installed this new script here http://webhost.pro/domain-check.php it's a basic domain availability tool.

I am trying to make a form that can be used on any page forward to this page with the content.

The page loads with this in the url webhost.pro/domain-check.php?domain=dwhs.net and will run the page.

So I can make a form that just submits to that page and sends the details.

I made this page for testing

http://webhost.pro/test.html

But no go, here is the code:

<form id="search" action="/domain-check.php" method="GET">
<input type="text" name="s">
<a onClick="document.getElementById('search').submit()" class="button1">Search</a>
<div class="clear"></div>
</form>


Thanks!

Hello,

I stored a fsockopen function in a separate "called.php" file, in order to run it as another thread when it needs.
The called script should return results to the "master.php" script.
I'm able to run the script to get the socket working, and I'm able to get results from the called script. I tried for hours but I can't do the twice both 

My master.php script (with socket working):

Code: [Select]
<?php
$command = "(/mnt/opt/www/called.php $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] &) > /dev/null";
$result = exec($command);
echo ("result = $result\r\n");
?>

and my called.php script
Code: [Select]
#!/mnt/opt/usr/bin/php-cli -q
<?php
$device = $_SERVER['argv'][1];
$port = "8080";
$fp = fsockopen($device, $port, $errno, $errstr, 5);
fwrite($fp, "test");
fclose($fp);
echo ("normal end of the called.php script");
?>

In the master script, if I use
Code: [Select]
$command = "(/mnt/opt/www/called.php $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] &) > /dev/null";
the socket works, but I have nothing in $result
(note also that I don't anderstand why the ( ... &) are needed!?)

and if I use
Code: [Select]
$command = "/mnt/opt/www/called.php $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]";
I have the correct text "normal end of the called.php script" in $result but the socket connection is not performed (no errors in php logs)

Could you help me to find a way to let's work the two features correctly together?
Thank you.

I'm trying to use this script known as SimpleImage.php that can be found here <a href="http://www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk/articles/php-image-resizing.php">link</a> I'm trying to include what is on the bottom of the page to my existing script can anyone help me I've tried several ways but its not working.

Well the subject line is pretty explicit.  I found this script that uploads a picture onto a folder on the server called images, then inserts the the path of the image on the images folder onto a VACHAR field in a database table.

The script seems to work fine because I managed to upload a picture which was successfully inserted into my images folder and into the database.
Now the problem is, I can't figure out exactly how to write the script that displays the image on an html page. I used the following script which didn't work.


Code: [Select]

//authenticate user
//Start session
session_start();

       
        //Connect to database
require ('config.php');

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT* FROM images WHERE member_id = '".$_SESSION['id']."' AND image_cartegory = 'main' ");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql);
$imagebytes = $row['image'];
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
print $imagebytes;







Seems to me like I need to alter some variables to match the variables used in the insert script, just can't figure out which.  Can anyone help??

How would I go about making it to where,, I can tell the script to use a certain extension of php in the script like curl.. ?

Thanks
