[chiPHPug-discuss] hi, PHP gurus in Chicago land

[Guangsheng H. <kha...@gm...>]

Hi to all PHP gurus in Chicago land!

I have been working with C/C++/Perl in UNIX/LINUX environment for many years
and now want to create web for both myself and some projects at work.

I have experience with simple HTML, CGI and SQL, and a little bit PHP work
two years ago. I want to use PHP to make my user interface nice and friendly
-:)

I want this page talk to communicate with server and display contents.
Because users are not superuser so I run several listening process/thread on
server side, I wish this php page can constantly exchanges data with server.
Some process might take more than 10 minutes before sending feedback to
client.

First 'dump' question is, how PHP keeps alive and refresh itself?

Happy weekend to you all.

Joe

Re: [chiPHPug-discuss] Sending thousands of pieces of mail at a time - PEAR? qmail?

[matt d. <mm_...@ya...>]

I used to send 60,000 Unique emails at a time.
I have the code on a disc (I believe) and can get you later.

Here's what I've learned over years of doing it.
use sockets to send and write you own headers- it's not that complicated and it's faster.
swapping in data is not a problem (I used an array to hold some 300 HTML templates and then would just str_replace sections/keywords).
qmail has quirks (there is a line length limit- go past it and it starts spelling text funny).

I'll email you if I find it later.

Matt

Subject: [chiPHPug-discuss] Sending thousands of pieces of mail at a time - PEAR? qmail?

So currently, my company is using an ancient clunky way of sending mail.
The sysadmins are building us a new qmail server.

What I need to know is how do I hand off several thousand unique
MIME-encoded emails to qmail to send in the most efficient manner possible?
I read somewhere I should be using the PEAR::Mail and PEAR::Mail_Queue
packages, but I have not used any of the PEAR stuff as of yet and am not
sure where to start looking for direction. If someone could push me towards
an idea of what part of the classes to look at first, or even a
skeleton/outline of how to do what I need, it would be greatly appreciated.

[chiPHPug-discuss] PHP MySQL site redesign and streamline help

[George T. D. I. <ge...@ge...>]

I am looking for someone to help with a small website redesign. The current
site was very poorly written and has actually ceased working at all. I would
like someone to redo the entire site layout, cleanup the backend
functionality and in general, streamline the entire site. The site relies on
some fairly basic PHP and mySQL and is hosted on a linux box. I would like
this person to be somewhere close to the Loop in Chicago as I envision
having weekly meetings to both discuss progress and also provide a bit of
tutoring / q&a sessions on general concepts etc. 

I would also like this person to be available going forward on an as needed
basis for additional functionality and any ongoing maintenance that might be
needed.

Part time and students are ok as well.

Please reply and we can arrange a time for a chat.

Hello everyone,

(First time poster, not-so-long-time-reader!)

Does anyone have any thoughts on parsing Excel files in PHP?  I know
there are several Excel2SQL classes out there, which seem to be all
over the place in terms of quality, but I was wondering if anyone knew
and/or had worked with any other solutions for manipulating Excel data
in php before I start trying to rip the guts out of one of those MySQL
oriented solutions.

Thankers,
Pete

Thanks to everyone who responded to my note. I'm going to plans some time to
do this and then consider which approach to take.

Maybe I'll see you at Uncommon Ground some day, if you still meet there.

Thanks again.
