PHP Development :(

Hi All,
Please help me, my knowledge on PHP is very limited (and when I say limited I mean very limited ) LOL
I was asked by my superior to create a time management and statistic reporting application which can be accessed via ou intranet. This should basically contain what time the consultants did what and then calculate the amount of hours or minutes, seconds that it took them and then basically do a print out of the stats by the click of a button to her.
This seems very nice and seems easy to most, but to me this is difficult. As this is our internal section application I am not allowed to use SQL, so I want to use a NoSql program with Dreamweaver and code in PHP.
Is there any one that can give me some pointers as to where to start, I have created the layout in html form, but the data needs to be placed on a seperate page to be viewed (which I cannot seem to get through) also from there be able to print this in a decent format (.pdf).
Please help, I am actually just webdesigner and is more familiar with html than any other.
Any help would be much appreciated....

What do u mean NoSql ? Does it mean that we must not use any database at the back end or something else. If we are not supposed to use database at the backend your application is not poosible to build.

PHP Development in Mac OS X

I am looking for software to create PHP website's, i've heard about BBEdit but i don't know if it is the best or someting. Can someone give me any advice on this topic ?

Hello ThaDude,
welcome to the OS X Developer's forums.
Indeed, OS X is one of the best environments for PHP Development. There a variety of tools and each one is best suited for the kind of developer you are and for what you are looking for.
I would say that BBEdit is best suited for someone who wants to do some quick PHP editing and not so much of a huge development.
If you want something for heavy-duty professional PHP development, I suggest you have a look at PHP Eclipse here:
http://www.phpeclipse.de/
I use it a lot and by far is one of the best PHP Development environment around.
On the other hand, if you are looking for a tool you would like to pay for, I suggest you have a look at Macromedia Dreamweaver MX on http://www.macromedia.com/dreamweaver.

Best Practical JSP Book for PHP developer

Hi Friends,
I am new to JSP and want learn basics of JSP so that I can do simple web page works.
I am a PHP developer with one and half years of experience.
Can anybody tell me what is the best JSP book for beginners or any web link with lots of simple jsp example?
--Sujoy

Before you learn JSP, you need to learn Java. I heard 'Head First in Java' is a good book. Install Eclipse IDE (its free) and work through some of the book's examples in it (as you read the book from cover to cover). Then Install Tomcat (its free) and the tomcat plugin for Eclipse (its free). Then read a book on JSP (cover to cover). I like the book 'JSP in action'. It covers both JSP and servlets. Then, create a hello world JSP in Eclipse, then a hello world servlet in Eclipse.

Regarding PHP Development to Related area in SAP

Hi All,
I am presently working in PHP Development technologies & Web services.
Now i want learn some related area in SAP which relates to PHP Development.
Can anybody sujjest any technology in SAP which will be suitable for me to get started and will have good future!
Thanks,

Hi,
maybe start with <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/e9/bb153aab4a0c0ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm">BSP (Business Server Pages)</a>, go through the <a href="https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BSP">Wiki</a>. This should give you enough information for a start. Once you got a grip on BSP, try to expand your knowledge to MVC development, which is the foundation for Web Dynpro ABAP, the future standard UI technology.
Good luck with your SAP start!

Got lost on Setting up a PHP development environment for Dreamweaver

I am following Dave Powers article on building a dynamic website. I am using Mac 10.6.7 and Dreamweaver CS5. I have downloaded Dave's example file and tried putting it on the desktop that didn't work. Next I tried dragging it into the website folder. That didn't work. Then I tried putting the php_test file into MAMP/hedocs and that didn't work. Where should the file go? I got to 2 green lights on the MAMP and can open the start page. The next step was to put in the time code which I did. It looks fine in design but when I click on "live view" it wants me to save the file. I save it as a php on my desktop. It then tells me I havn't specified a testing server. I have tried several ways of setting up the testing server. I set up the file name as :Local Testing---connect using: Local/Network---for the sever folder I have tried /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/php_test with web url: http://localhost/php_test/ . And I have tried it with: /Users/checkout/Desktop/php_test. Any ideas?
Thanks,
She

Don't have the pro version? That's unfortunate. catch-22 for you... can't get any $$ to buy tools for web development until you start getting $$ developing websites and can't develop websites until you get $$ to buy tools for web development.
You have no doubt learned by now through searching (and REsearching) that virtual host is a MAMP Pro feature. If you're too cheap/poor/whatever to afford $59 for MAMP Pro (but you somehow managed to afford the high price of Dreamweaver) then put your site files in MAMP's host location: Applications/MAMP/htdocs
You said in OP that you did something like that... that you put php_test file (presumably php_test.php with contents unknown to forum readers) in the MAMP directory and could not load the page by visiting http://localhost/php_test
That is probably because you did not specify the file extension in the localhost URL like this: http://localhost/php_test.php
How about this... what exact tutorial are you following (provide a URL) and what exact step in the tutorial are you having trouble with? Or try this: instead of php_test use index.php in htdocs directory. For contents of index.php put <?php phpinfo(); ?> then visit http://localhost and see what happens.

Freetype2 with GD Library (PHP Developement)

I am wanting to develop with the GD Library for PHP and use Freetype2. Do I need to have Developer Tools installed? Is it necessary to use my Snow Leopard machine, or is Leopard fine? I have both...
The only reason I ask, I seem to get some of the image functions to work, but when I try to access some of the Type Functions I get errors (imagefttext). I am thinking, maybe I got the GD Library installed correctly, but for some reason cannot get the Fonts installed correctly. In one of the links I read, they mention Developer Tools need to be installed for this to work.
This is the link I tried to follow. Second post. Working through Terminal, was getting errors. Not finding directories, and also, GNU does not recogize "make"...
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=381298
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm thinking...
in "init.php" to see if FreeType2 is available.
As a first step to resolve this recompile Your PHP4 setup using the following basic configuration (depending on the local conditions some options/path might have to be changed). The critical options are marked in bold.
./configure --prefix=/usr/share \--datadir=/usr/share/php \--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs \--libdir=/usr/share --includedir=/usr/include \--bindir=/usr/bin \--with-config-file-path=/etc \--enable-mbstring --enable-mbregex \--with-mysql \--with-gd \--enable-gd-imgstrttf \--enable-gd-native-ttf \--with-ttf-dir=/usr/lib \--with-freetype-dir=/usr/lib \--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib \--with-png-dir=/usr/lib \--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib \--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6 \--with-tiff-dir=/usr/lib \--enable-memory-limit --enable-safe-mode \--bindir=/usr/bin \--enable-bcmath -enable-calendar \--enable-ctype --with-ftp \--enable-magic-quotes \--enable-inline-optimization \--with-iconv
If there is still no TTF fonts displayed then the enxt step is to upgrade Your TTF libraries to the latest version. The FreeType version 2.1.9 is known to work well.
http://jpgraph.net/doc/faq.php
If you want to use the TrueType font support, you must also install theFreeType 2.x library, including the header files. See the Freetype Home Page, or SourceForge. No, I cannot explain why that site is down on a particular day, and no, I can't send you a copy.

Install a test JSP Web Server on a mac for a PHP developer

I am looking to write some simple JSP pages. I need a Java web server and the development kit [JSPWDK or is it JSWDK?]
I have only Java SE 6.0 installed on my mac. I have Snow Leopard OS.
I had trouble in the downloads finding the right one, but I downloaded the
jswdk_0_1_solsparc.tar.z
I was looking for a regular UNIX JSWDK and didn't find one?
Will the Solaris Sparc version work for a mac?
I have apache on my mac. I normally use PHP but for a web project.
I need the JSP server.
Can I install the JSP Server on my mac along with the Apache server. This is only for development.
I have got Zend Framework for PHP running on my mac so I don't want to mess up too much for this test.
Thanks for any advice or any pages anywhere to help but I can install from a tar file if there isn't too much configuration.
TIA.

Hi,
If you need to install a full development environment with Tomcat in Mac OSX take a look at my tutorial at http://jmaw.blogspot.com.es/2012/08/minimo-entorno-de-desarrollo-java-mac.html. The blog has translation if you need it.
I hope I can help. Also you can. Install both servers taking care of the ports, usually Tomcat listens requests by the port 8080 while Apache server listens requests by the default http port 80.

[SOLVED] PHP: developer's permissions

Hi,
I'm new to PHP, so the question may be dumb. On the other hand, I haven't been able to find much with Google. How am I supposed to debug/modify files in /srv/http as a user? Even on localhost? I've been thinking there should be a suitable group, but this doesn't seem to be the case.

Use of scope resolution operator in PHP development example

I am relatively new to OOP in general so this question may sound dumb but
In this documentation: Query Performance and Prefetching
To quote that text, "
The $db->setPrefetch() call is used to set the prefetch value. The microtime() calls are used to show how long the report took to generate.
A new Db::fetchRow() method is used to get one row at a time. It is called in a loop after the query has been run"
Why the does it use the scope resolution operator? Isn't it used for just static methods and overridden methods.
I do not see any static declaration when this method is entered into class.
To quote the method declaration:
/** * Fetch a row of data. Call this in a loop after calling Db::execute() * * @return array An array of data for one row of the query */
public function fetchRow() {
$row = oci_fetch_array($this->stid, OCI_ASSOC + OCI_RETURN_NULLS);
return($row);
Am I missing something really trivial thing about this concept?
Thank you.

It's shorthand documentation for "A new fetchRow() method in the DB class is used to get..."

PHP to XI development

Hi
Can any one please suggest me on how to go about xi from a perspective of PHP developer. I have little exposure to Java and worked on XML and XSLT. I have gone through the blogs of Sravya Talanki and understood the basic concepts of xi and those blogs helped me to realize what xi means and i thank and appreciate the efforts put by sravya in bringing up such a nice article.
Here are my few questions.
1. As Abap is also crucial to xi, can you please send me some documents about the things we should know in abap that are helpful to Xi developer.
2. What role does the integration processes play in integration bcz i have also read that integration scenarios can be developed without integration process or whether it depends on the size of the project or so?
3. Is the message mapping is the default to be used in integration or can we use XSLT mapping in all the cases or whether it depends on the requirements?
4. I have developed file to file scenario using the blog published by venkat donela. The part1 i.e, the steps followed in registering business systems, technical systems and creating integration scenarios,msg mappings etc worked and also i tested the mapping by inputing the values, target structure is also generated. But in the Integration directory, in Sender Agreement, I have created the Business System with out party.
When i was creating Sender Agreement, and selected the service, in the interface listing and name space listing, the interfaces and name spaces are not being listed. Even though i tried the Search Criteria by selecting All, no luck.
So can any body explain the solution for the above problem.
Also thank venkat for publishing nice articles.
And also please forward me if any body has a pdf document explaining the all the contents in xi
Thanks in advance for everybody

PHP & SSO

Is there anyway to use SSO to authenticate someone straight into a database. I used the information here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/webcolumns/2003/techarticles/bennett_php.html
to authenticate the person, but what if I need to access a database as that person? Is there anyway to use that person's username and password to login to a database to query without making custom SSO pages and storing username/password in sessions (which is generally frowned on from what I hear)?
thanks.

Did you already take a look at the OTN PHP Developer Center?

I need help getting my local testing server to work - PHP/MySQL

Hello,
I am using DW CS5 and have installed XAMPP for my Server/PHP/DB package (which is the same as my live site).
I have gone thru every tuitorial and all information on this subject, and unfortunately I can't get the server set up correct. Other than my page not showing in a browser (or live view) when I try to view it, DW just says: "Dynamically-related files could not be resolved because the site definition is not correct for this server" when I have index.php open and try to find the files.
One major question is I am unsure of what folder to have as the root folder of the site, which has a public_htlm directory and www directory - or do I just use the main folder they are both located in as the root folder?
(Not to get too deep with this first question, but I also looked at the error log file in Apache c:\xampp\apache\logs\error.log and it is not finding the following:
[Tue Oct 09 14:26:38.573504 2012] [:error] [pid 3100:tid 1488] [client ::1:56261] script 'C:/xampp/htdocs/BusinessTube/index_e5pebna8e.php' not found or unable to stat]
I'm guessing that the file "index_e5pebna8e.php" is a cached version of the file generated by index.php - but I'm unsure why it is not being 'found'.)
Second question is about having to set the php.ini file to listen to port 88 as this computer also has IIS installed. I have done this, and it works with a local project directly from NetBeans (which I have to use for a PHP development class). How will this change my DW site definitions? I'm assuming that anywhere I would have localhost I will now need to have localhost:88 but once again I'm not sure.
I am eager to get this site working locally so I can start using the new PHP skills I'm learning - any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
Kirk

You're getting mixed up over the meaning of public_html.
Most hosting companies that offer PHP use the Apache web server, which has a single server root folder called htdocs. XAMPP also uses Apache, so c:/xampp/htdocs is the XAMPP server root, and its URL is http://localhost/.
Although Apache has only one server root, virtual hosts make it possible to run multiple websites on the same server. Each virtual host is located in a separate folder that acts as the site root. It's common for this folder to be called public_html. What bregent was describing was the location of the site root on your remote server. The name of the site root in your local testing setup can be whatever you decide to call it.
When learning to use PHP, most people use a subfolder of the Apache server root because it doesn't require further configuration. However, once you're working with real sites, it's normal to set up a virtual host for each one. I create all my virtual hosts in a folder called C:/vhosts. So for example, I might have one in C:/vhosts/site1. In the virtual hosts configuration file, I designate C:/vhosts/site1 as the root folder for a virtual host called site1, which can then be accessed as http://site1/.
The only reason I might have a folder called public_html is if I designated C:/vhosts/site1/public_html as the site root.
I hope that's clear. Once you understand the principle of virtual hosts, the concept of the site (or server) root becomes obvious, but it can be difficult to explain. I remember it took me a while before the concept sank in.

Apache 1.3.33 and PHP 4.3.11 compiled in

The package
Here are the good stabile versions of both Apache and PHP including the following stuff:
- support for these databases: mysql, postgresql, firebird
- gdi support
- mod_ssl along with a dummy certificate
- eaccelerator for PHP and the default configuration for it
- mod_gzip for pages compression
- mod_security for ids system (see Snort and making its rules compatible with mod_security). Also remember to disable rules if you get problems with PHP developement. mod_security tends to be too aggressive at first with these default rules.
The files
PKGBUILD
httpd
apache13.install
http.conf.d
httpd.conf.mod_gzip
httpd.conf.regression-v2
httpd.logrotate
Done
02.05.2005
- fixed apache13.install to properly stop the server before unistall
- set eaccelerator to be configured more like it is in cactus's package
01.05.2005
- backing up etc/php.ini and etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
- added logrotate support code from Judd's package
- phpize is now called from startdir instead of /usr/bin/phpize for eaccelerator
30.04.2005
- the package depends now on my firebirddb package. It was needed because
libgds.so is needed when firebird support is compiled in
- disabled imagick for the time being - got to find out how to make it compile properly by default
- cleaned up the code that sets up php (the manual file copying doesn't seem to be needed anymore with 4.3.11)
- made phpize to be called from ${startdir}
- set mod_security filtering to Off as default
29.04.2005 - updated php to v. 4.3.11
- Tested using Gallery 1.4.4-pl5 and my own project (a lot of database activity and file handling)
28.04.2005
- fixed eaccelerator and it now works (php.ini had eaccelerator's settings inserted wrong way with "-marks). The execution of some scripts that took before 0.075 - 0.09 seconds now only takes 0.03-0.04
27.04.2005
- cleaned up code a bit and old comments and disabled cookie format checking for mod_security that was causing 500 error
Todo and thoughts
<i>10.05.2005</i> - found a great guide about securely setting up apache and php
- it would be really great to implement a curses-based configuration where the PKGBUILD would be edited according to choices the users makes (because there are changes needed in many parts of the file) - this way the package would really be for everyone
- deleting default apache manual
- to get imagick to compile- graphicsmagick installation to work properly or to make it optional
(ignore the text about graphicmagic in PKGBUILD - it was just for my own tests)

I built it today and tested again and compiling part went just fine. Only apache13.install was missing - it had pre-remove commands (if server is already running to stop it). Then removed the older same package (pacman -R) and replaced it with the new one. Then started up apache and had 500 error - it was caused by mod_security. Turned off cookie filter in httpd.conf.regression-v2 (SecFilterCheckCookieFormat Off) and then it started up fine.
The eaccelerator did not appear on php info page, so got to fix setting it up... Please let me know what else seems suspicious to you and what might cause errors.
