PHP variable scope

george@georgemh.com (Ruckus) — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 14:04:59 +0000

I've been developing a simple PHP framework to help teach me to use OOP in PHP more. The [url=http://git.georgemh.com/?p=ezphp.git;a=summary]EzPHP[/url] framework essentially works by using mod_rewrite to dump the entire URL into a single php script. The script will then modify any default settings and initialize EzPHP. EzPHP will parse the URL and look for a module to load to handle the request. If there is no module found, and the URL resolves to a real file on the disk, there is a FileHandler module designed to either output the file, or execute it if its a PHP script. I am trying to get FluxBB to run under the FileHandler module. The most relevant code is this: [code] public function outputFile($file){ $req = $this->req; if($this->filterFile($file)) throw new NotFoundException(); $type = $this->getMimeType($file); if($type == 'application/x-httpd-php-source'){ highlight_file($file); }elseif($type == 'application/x-httpd-php' && $req->getConfig('FILEHANDLER_EXECUTE_PHP_SCRIPTS')){ chdir(dirname($file)); require($file); }else{ header('Content-Type: '.$type); readfile($file); } $req->exitCleanly(); } [/code] If the file to be executed is a PHP script, it will "require" it, so it gets executed. The chdir changes the directory to the parent directory of the file being executed. My problem is that in FluxBB, most of the functions use the global keyword to access some variables, but they aren't in the same scope as what global implies, they are in the scope of the outputFile function, so fluxbb fails to execute. The error is this: [code] Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object in /home/george/public_html/dev/stayanon/forums/include/functions.php on line 125 [/code] $db is set to null because it has the wrong scope, and isn't really a global function any more. Another odd thing is that index.php works just fine when executed under the FileHandler module, but none of the other pages do. You can see what I mean by going here: Username: fluxbb Password: fluxpassword1 [url]http://fluxbb:fluxpassword1@home.georgemh.com/~george/dev/stayanon/forums/index.php[/url] Works [url]http://fluxbb:fluxpassword1@home.georgemh.com/~george/dev/stayanon/forums/login.php[/url] Doesn't work If anything, none of the fluxbb pages should work due to the variable scope problem, but somehow index.php does work, but none of the others do. A more complete paste of the code can be found here: [url]http://pastebin.com/f27045543[/url] You can view the full EzPHP framework here: [url]http://git.georgemh.com/?p=ezphp.git;a=summary[/url] Much appreciated if anyone has any insight into this. If you have questions don't hesitate to ask.

Fallback localization?

dummy@example.com (Frank H) — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 22:38:10 +0000

There is a problem with localization files being used, that when it is about to be a new version, one should manually look up for differences in localization files, or else it would not even work. It would be great, if there were a fallback to English for strings not found in a specific localization file. It could be done through using a function instead of arrays everywhere localized strings are used, e. g. "forum_lang('common', 'No view')" instead of "$lang_common['No view']". I hope I was not too obscure in my wish. Sorry for my bad English.

SQL Query Help Needed - UserList Related...

dummy@example.com (twohawks) — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 10:12:48 +0000

Hi All, I know a lot of us need to keep hiking 1.2 up a little. Practically speaking many of us won't be able to migrate a complex BB over for some time, even if we were showering in 1.3 months ago. I have run into my userbase screaming for upgrades, and I have to deliver..... Just to be clear - I ain't complaining - I am so happy with FluxBB1.2.20. Its like a good old Ford Truck (or a Scout 4WD - my fav), takes a lickin' and keeps on keepin on... and I am very grateful to you coders, and support your hard work. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PURPOSE HERE: Obtain some help sussing a decent logical approach to a needed query. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have been working on the multigroup mod from noof at punres... got it working tamely now, and making some improvements, including integration with the SubForum Mod ;^) ***I am focussed right now on the userlist.php file with consideration to where the userslist is displaying the user's group Title (I'll refer to that as the title-cell for now). [b]With the mod installed I want to have this "title-cell" present a comma delimited list of 'g.group_user_titles' the user is a member of. I have somethings worked out in that direction, but I could use a little help.[/b] SPECIFICS ***I am looking for some pointers on - how to get groups:g_user_title - upon matching a custom value in the users:membergroupids (its a new column - lets forget for the moment it holds an array if need be - until and unless I get some other basics down) - where the value in users:membergroupids matches group:g_id. HERE IS THE CODE I AM TWEAKING.............. [b] 1) In userlist.php ~LN 191 under 'grab the users'...........[/b] is this slightly modified Select Statement:[code] SELECT u.id, u.username, u.title, u.membergroupids, u.num_posts, u.registered, g.g_id, g.g_user_title FROM '.$db->prefix.'users AS u LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'groups AS g ON g.g_id=u.group_id WHERE u.id>1'.(!empty($where_sql) ? ' AND '.implode(' AND ', $where_sql) : '').' ORDER BY '.$sort_by.' '.$sort_dir.', u.id ASC LIMIT '.$start_from.', 50 [/code] All that's added right now is the reference for u.membergroupids. From my limited experience so far I presume one cannot really pull another obtuse correlation out of this statment, for instance... ...in non-technical language... AND SELECT g.g_user_title WHERE u.membergroupids for this u.id MATCHES g.g_id AND JOIN THAT to the same ROW AS is currently being assembled for that user. ??Does this make sense? [b] 2a) A LITTLE MORE....[/b] Just below the queries containing the referenced SELECT statement(s), there is this code... [code]if ($db->num_rows($result)) { while ($user_data = $db->fetch_assoc($result)) { echo "memberGroupIds = ".$user_data['membergroupids']."
\n"; //debug $user_title_field = get_title($user_data); [/code] [b] 2b) THEN if you open include/functions.php, and under get_title($user), at ~ln500 , if you adjust the code there as follows, you will be able to observe the addition of the multigroupids values (numbers) next to the main g.g_user_title...[/b] [code] ####### In include/functions.php, Find at about ln 510 #################### ### else if ($user['g_user_title'] != '') $user_title = pun_htmlspecialchars($user['g_user_title'].$user['membergroupids']); ### ###### REPLACE WITH ####### else if ($user['g_user_title'] != '') $user_title = pun_htmlspecialchars( $user['g_user_title'].(!is_null($user['membergroupids'])&&(!$user['membergroupids']==0) ? ', '.$user['membergroupids'] : '' ) ); [/code] ================================================ From what I have wrestled with so far (and my brain is a bit overworked, it could be the answer is staring me right in the face - as usually!), I am thinking I may need to prepare a second query and nestle it in just above that following while loop in #2a above, and then catch the value in the while loop process. And then when I got that figured out for, say, as if multigroupids was a single value... then I may be ready to figure out how to properly iterate the array for the values and match things up for the desired result. I am looking for some suggestions for logic as to how to tacl;e this problem. THANKS. ---------------------------------------------------- I know, I know... its a messy and difficult mod (lots of edits), but its not so poorly thought out really (kudos to noop and cybmat for taking the tough stab)) ...but I did succeed in cleaning it up and tweaking it toward some more accomodating functionality (I have listed this at punres here: [url]http://www.punres.org/viewtopic.php?id=150)[/url], and it seems to be testing out really nicely at the present time, though I need to do more testing. Any help and direction would be greatly apreciated, thanks. Cheers, HTH

RDFa + XHTML docs?

dummy@example.com (MattF) — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 10:02:16 +0000

Would anyone happen to have some decent reference documentation sources for RDFa + XHTML combo's? Already read the W3C primer and follow on document, but they're a tad vague in quite a few areas, and all the other docs I've found so far seem obsessed with using meta and link tags instead of embedding the info in the existing divs, headers, a tags and such. Just wanting to try and get a good overall view of the general semantics as well as more indepth specifics. Cheers all. :)

Content based on referer?

dummy@example.com (Tyler) — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 04:17:58 +0000

I've been playing with referrers on localhost somewhat unsuccessfully but have the following working on two test domains. I'm trying to show different content based on the referer, so anyone finding my site through any other means than fluxbb/punbb.org will see my normal portfolio site. Those coming from flux/pun will see my skins/mods etc. [code] My FluxBB Portfolio

Welcome FluxBB user! Here you can find my skins and mods free to download.

My Non-FluxBB/PunBB Related Stuff

Welcome to my portfolio of non-fluxbb related things.

[/code] I'm looking to throw a third site into the array so that users coming from PunBB will see my "PunBB mods" page, whereas users coming from FluxBB will see my "FluxBB mods" page. If the referrer is blank or doesnt match fluxbb.org/punbb.org it should just show my normal site. If someone can code up a basic working example with a third site loaded in the array (and a seperate third html sheet) I'd be glad to shoot over some beer money through paypal. Cheers :)
