How to view local PHP files with my browser?

I want to learn PHP and be able to view files I create (stored in my documents folder) by my browser. I read I'd have to get into Apache via Terminal and make some changes to be able to view PHP. I took a look inside and ran across warning comments, which scared me off!
Any suggestions?

Pretty simple, ther arew no "warnings" to consider. Depending on your version of Apache you may need to enable the PHP module in the configuration file at
/private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf
Look for the part where it says
#LoadModule php 4_module
and also
#AddModule mod_ php 4.c
and make sure those lines are uncommented by deleting the "#" character, then restart Apache to activate the new settings . When you acces a PHP page, you must do it through Apache by clicking this URL: http://127.0.0.1/ Remember that HTML files can be dropped in a browser, but to run a PHP script file you must use an Apache URL.

How to view weblogic log files from a browser

Hi,
I am running WebLogic Server 7.03 on Solaris 8.
I have one Admin and multiple Managed servers running.
Each creates its own log file.
Is there anyway I can access this log files from the browser ?
In Apache, you can create a link from htdocs dir to the logs dir
and then view the log files from the browser. Is there a similar
mechanism in Weblogic server.
A quick response is well appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you are on a unix system you can do something similar by making an open
directory webapp with symbolic links to the weblogic log directories. I suggest
that you protect that webapp with administration access only.

How can I download any file with this browser?

I can't download any mp3 or mp4 file with the browser. When I click on the download box,then the browser started to load a page.. And after some time,it became stopped..

Firefox for Android added the ability to save HTML5 video/audio playback in Firefox 21. Long tapping on a media file while it is playing will give you a save option. It can be found as Firefox Beta in the Play Store. In about 4 weeks it the change will be available on the release version of Firefox for Android.

Render local PHP files... any fix yet?

So, I read numerous posts on this topic - but they all have been "archived" and cannot be replied to?? I think it is still very important and wonder, does that mean it is dealt with or still a know, ongoing issue I just missed the answer to??
This thread most similarly matches my issue and themost detailed: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=978104
I use Dreamweaver 8 and Safari 2.0.1 on a 10.4.2 System. As others have noted, when I go to drop a PHP file onto Safari, it just renders the source code. But, if I drop it on IE or Opera or FF it renders as expected.
Yes, I have turned on Web Sharing in the System Preferences. Yes, I have turned on PHP (using this simple article http://www.phpmac.com/articles.php?view=225) and verified it by puttng a php file into my "Sites" folder and it renders fine in Safari that way. But, neither have been a solution. Nor is using other lesser supported browsers and what-not as I need to develope for Safari and have 30 or so sites I manage with a local system already in place that worked just fine in 10.3 and Safari from 10.3 - so moving all my stuff to my "Sites" is a no go. And, I believe I read it still is an issue in 10.4.7 - so updating the system is not the answer either.
It is very bothersome to not be able to view my PHP files locally on Safari and have to have to put them on the server to view/test them as that was not the case under Safari under 10.3. The only other way to view them in Safari I have found is by using the Preview feature in Dreamweaver 8 (which no one else mentioned in other threads), BUT if there is a text link (like a 'click here' navigation link) in the page to another PHP file and you click said link, you jut get the source code for that next page as if you dropped the file on Safari. That is weird in itself that through Dreamweaver 8 it makes a Temp file of the PHP file and loads that in Safari just fine!!!! but to actually drop or load the actual PHP file (not the created Temp file).... nothing but source code.
So, any status on this? Still a lingering issue? I wondered if the stop in posting to the topic means people just accepted the bug (I find that hard to believe), or it was fixed (by a hack or by Apple) and I missed it someplace? It does not seem to be a PHP issue (as some reports said initially) as othr browsers on the same system can render the files when dropped on them, but an actual issue with how Safari deals with PHP files now - when it handeled them just fine in 10.3.

Please read the link to the previous closed thread in my first post as it explains it pretty clearly. It is all about a file with extension .php versus .html.
but I will recap again here:
I am very clear that Safari cannot run server side script locally. That is not the issue as that is a given.
"What I am expecting Safari to do" - and what all developers are expecting Safari to do when it encounters a local PHP file (a file with extension .php versus .html) is to render the HTML and display the page - not the source code. who wants to see the source code when trying to preview the layout and look and feel of a page.
again, in old 10.3 if you dropped a PHP file (file with .php extension) onto Safari, the file would display the HTML portion just fine and show the resulting webpage - and not process the PHP within the code naturally as it cannot being local and not off a server - but now in 10.4 if you drop a PHP file (file with .php extension) onto Safari it just shows you the source code. IF you chnage that exact files extension to .html it renders fine, chnage it back to .php and nothing but source code.
this is a know glitch and covered in the first linked thread in depth..... I am more looking at this point to see if anyone is aware of a fix yet??

Firefox 3.6.8 won't open local php files. It opens the save as text dialog box instead.

When I try to open a local php file on my MAC hard drive with FF 3.6.8, the save file dialog box opens instead. It says: You have chosen to open index.php which is a TextEdit.app Document. I do not have this problem with Firefox 3.5.11.
I have tried:
opening the file directly from Firefox as well as
double clicking the file (which is the most common way).
I have also tried changing the file "open with" preference to "open with Firefox." That did not work either.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
I'm on a MAC OS 10.5.8
Thnx, Nick

You have to delete mimeTypes.rdf.
You can find it here (Windows XP): C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Aplication Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default.

How to view a PDF file

Hey, i was wondering if anyone knew how to view a PDF file in Java? I'm trying to make a button that will open a PDF file. Is there any other way without downloading an extension?

The thing with downloading extensions is that they are not free. Some are trial version. iText and Jasper are probably free and stable to a great extent. Plus they allow you to play with PDFs, Excel, Bar charts, Pie charts, CSV etc etc without the hassles of the heavyweight Swing.

How to load unicode data files with fixed records lengths?

Hi!
To load unicode data files with fixed records lengths (in terms of charachters and not of bytes!) using SQL*Loader manually, I found two ways:
Alternative 1: one record per row
SQL*Loader control file example (without POSITION, since POSITION always refers to bytes!)<br>
LOAD DATA
CHARACTERSET UTF8
LENGTH SEMANTICS CHAR
INFILE unicode.dat
INTO TABLE STG_UNICODE
TRUNCATE
A CHAR(2) ,
B CHAR(6) ,
C CHAR(2) ,
D CHAR(1) ,
E CHAR(4)
) Datafile:
001111112234444
01NormalDExZWEI
02ÄÜÖßêÊûÛxöööö
03ÄÜÖßêÊûÛxöööö
04üüüüüüÖÄxµôÔµ Alternative2: variable length records
LOAD DATA
CHARACTERSET UTF8
LENGTH SEMANTICS CHAR
INFILE unicode_var.dat "VAR 4"
INTO TABLE STG_UNICODE
TRUNCATE
A CHAR(2) ,
B CHAR(6) ,
C CHAR(2) ,
D CHAR(1) ,
E CHAR(4)
) Datafile:
001501NormalDExZWEI002702ÄÜÖßêÊûÛxöööö002604üuüüüüÖÄxµôÔµ Problems
Implementing these two alternatives in OWB, I encounter the following problems:
* How to specify LENGTH SEMANTICS CHAR?
* How to suppress the POSITION definition?
* How to define a flat file with variable length and how to specify the number of bytes containing the length definition?
Or is there another way that can be implemented using OWB?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Carsten.

Hi Carsten
If you need to support the LENGTH SEMANTICS CHAR clause in an external table then one option is to use the unbound external table and capture the access parameters manually. To create an unbound external table you can skip the selection of a base file in the external table wizard. Then when the external table is edited you will get an Access Parameters tab where you can define the parameters. In 11gR2 the File to Oracle external table can also add this clause via an option.

How to open a pdf file with command in WebBrowser control?

Installed acrobat 6 or7 in my PC, then I load a WebBrowser control in IE to open a local pdf file with command line, such as "Page=3", and then open the same pdf file with WebBrowser control in other IE process, I found the command will affect other open and show operations in webbrowser. is it normal? That is to say, When i set command "Page=3", the second time WebBrowser still open pdf with command "Page=3",I think it is bad.

Hello:
Thanks for your reply. I installed Acrobat6.0 or 7.0 in my PC, then i load a WebBrowser Control in IE by Html, then open local pdf with different command by running IE. We can get the command in this website: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf
First:open local pdf with command : oWebBrowser.Navigate("G:
PDF
07000001.pdf#Page=3&Pagemode=thumbs", null, null, null, null);
Second:Open the same local pdf with no command: oWebBrowser.Navigate("G:
PDF
07000001.pdf", null, null, null, null)
【Result】The first command "#Page=3&Pagemode=thumbs" will effect the way of showing pdf when second open. But, the phenomenon will not appear in Acrobat 8.0, 9.0, 10.0.
