is it possible to scandir a random file?? This code selects the first file found $dir = '/htdocs/user/site.com/thumbs/'; foreach(scandir($dir) as $file){ if (strtolower(substr($file, -4)) == '.jpg') { if (file_exists($dir . $file)) { $image = "/thumbs/".$file; echo $image; } else { //default image echo "There was an error getting the thumbnail "; } } }//end foreach

Thanks. But can this be limited to one file. Im pulling the filename from the database. Im trying to filter out unwanted files

I need to transfer a file from one directory to another, but this script loads endlessly. $dir = "/htdocs/user/videos/"; $backup = "/htdocs/user/backup/"; $file = video.flv; //**check if file exists**// $filename = $dir . $file; if (file_exists($filename)) { echo "<font color\"green\">The file exists</font>"; $current = file_get_contents($dir . $file); file_put_contents($backup . $file); }else{ echo "no"; }

I want to filter out some i dont need. Anyway i got the remote database to work by using an ip, now i just need to transfer the files from one directory to the dackup

you can also flush you page to present the tables and text first. Put it in you header template flush();

I have 2 server one with a database (no remote access) has file names stored and second with physical files I need to make a backup of 20,000 videos on the remote server. Local server: /htdocs/user/dir/ftp_script.php Remote server: /htdocs/user/dir/ //all videos here /htdocs/user/backup/ //transfer backup files here What ftp function can i do this with, the only way i can think of is to download the file to local server then reupload it to remote server

Im trying to learn curl, but the script endlessly loads set_time_limit(0); // create a new cURL resource $ch = curl_init(); // set default curl options curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookie.txt'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'cookie.txt'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11"); $g_url = http://site.com/page.html; echo "Fetching...<br>"; curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $g_url); echo "test<br>"; $html = curl_exec($ch); echo"test2"; if (strlen($html)>0) { echo "ok"; } This echos : Fetching... test Its sticking on this part for some reason: $html = curl_exec($ch);

Thanks

Im trying to delete multiple files by ftp, i can do this with a single file but how can i do it to delete multiple files $file = "image.jpg"; //deletes this single file //$files = array(image1.jpg, image2.jpg, image3.jpg); $target_ftp_server = "server"; $target_ftp_user = "user"; $target_ftp_pass = "pass"; $target_ftp_path_thumb = "/"; // connect to target ftp server $target_conn = ftp_connect($target_ftp_server) or die("Could not connect to target_ftp_server!"); ftp_login($target_conn, $target_ftp_user, $target_ftp_pass); // switch to passive mode if behind a firewall ftp_pasv($target_conn, true ); // change to the target path ftp_chdir($target_conn, $target_ftp_path_thumb); // delete file if (ftp_delete($target_conn, $file)) { echo "<font color='red'>Removed!</font>"; } else { echo "could not delete $file\n "; } // close all ftp connections ftp_close($target_conn);

/ means root so make your css and javascript a base /style.css /js/java.js etc..

Thanks. The query works, but im still having trouble with the while loop while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo $row['username']." has ".$row['COUNT(id)']." videos"; echo "<br />"; } The username is grouped and echos but doesnt have any video count

Im trying to make a query to tell how many videos each user has uploaded, but the there are two tables and i need to sort by amount of videos descending Heres what ive done $query = "SELECT videos.*, signups.* ". "FROM videos, signups ". "WHERE videos.user_id = signups.user_id limit 5 "; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); // Print out the contents of each row into a table while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo $row['username']. " has ". $row[' ']." videos"; echo "<br />"; } Heres my table structure Table1: signups (tabe name) user_id | username Table 2: videos (Table name) id | user_id I proberly need a count or group in here but im uncertain

Im trying import a txt file line by line Heres the txt file: one two three four five etc... Basically i want to import this into my database: $file_names = '/home/htdocs/file_names.txt'; $sql = "INSERT INTO `forum` SET `username`='ghost' "; $result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

If you have directories like this that broswers dont need to enter: /includes/ /js/ /images/ etc... Boot the browser off with htaccess, redirect them to the root account. Your index.php page is the main target for hacking. Youll sometime see it with 777 permissions, if you dont update this page - chmod it to 444. Rember htaccess is you best friend for fooling hackers as to what directory structure youve got by useing urlrewrite, its easier for them to go to a less confusing site - unless your worth hacking of course Use remote address to check the ip for admin panels so only allowing your ip into the admin panel

Yep works now. It was the ajax http request i was using to initiate the page. It still doesnt work with ajax but works when browser enters page.

Thats why i added the echo "Completed! <a href=\"/\">Click here to test</a>"; part Ive tested it on 3 browser and no cookie is set, although i can set cookies with javascript ...maybe an elusive bug....

Im going round in circles trying to set a simple cookie, ive done this before but i cant get it to work. Can someone see my error?? $expire=time()+60*60*24*30*30; setcookie("turbo", "on", $expire, "/"); echo "Completed! <a href=\"/\">Click here to test</a>"; if(!$_COOKIE['turbo']){ echo 'its not there'; }elseif($_COOKIE['turbo'] == "on" ){ echo 'its on'; }

Im trying to only select files with a .jpg extension in a directory. Also i need to kill the script if it doesnt have any files with this extension in it. Heres what ive got so far $dir = '/home/user/public_html/pics/'; foreach(scandir($dir) as $file){ //kill the script if no files if ($file< 0){ echo "No files"; die(); } //if $file has a .jpg extension do something here }

I built a "trash or fame" mod for my video site and its addictive, i used to have a rating system which no one used. Im always adding new mods and experimenting - for fun of course

Well that's one way to get the PTA off your back. If i was him i would do it. It wouldnt surprise me if someone found him a few years down the track.....as a woman

Think about it...if you were him you would fake your own death, and live the second half of your life in peace....with more surgery

Im trying to float this form to the right but it becomes inactive somethings stopping you from entering anything into the form. <style> .search{ color:#777; display:block; font:bold 12px Arial; height:20px; margin-bottom:3px; padding:0 0 0 18px; float:right; margin-top: 20px; }</style> <div class="search"> <form name="searchForm" action="/search.php" method="GET"> <INPUT class=search_box tabIndex=1 maxLength=128 name="search_id" value="" size="31"> <input style="background-color:#c0c0c0; margin-right: 15px;" type="submit" value="Search"> </form> </div>

How can i have a div with an image inside that says "Loading...." until the image is actually loaded. Is this a body onload thing?? <div class=loading" align="center">Loading Image....<div> <div class="image"> <img border="0" src="http://img.site.com/image.jpg" width="25" height="25"> </div>

Thats did it, it loads much faster now. Thanks

Im using num_rows to cound how many rows there are in a table, but is count(*) faster Heres what im using: $result3 = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM table WHERE approve='1' ")or die(mysql_error()); $content_count = mysql_num_rows( $result3 ); Also i cant seem to get count to work, it only select about 200 rows, but there are over 30,000 rows $content_count = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(id) FROM table WHERE approve='1' ")or die(mysql_error()); echo $content_count;
