Tim Perdue Server scripting languages like Lasso and Java servlets make sending mail so complicated that you’d rather avoid it at all costs. Until recently, I have been relying on a cheap (read “free”) perl script from cgi-resources.com , but I want to be able to do this from PHP. Yesterday (1999-02-20), I decided to give email a whirl with PHP3. I needed to have a customized “thank you” page after sending the mail - like the rest of geocrawler.com and gotocity.com , the response page… (more…)

by Joe Johnston October 31, 2001 XML-RPC is a useful protocol for building cross-platform, client-server applications. Often XML-RPC is demonstrated with high-level interpreted languages like Perl and Python. In this article, Eric Kidd’s XML-RPC C library is used to build a simple, yet powerful debugging client. Special care is taken to bring programmers with rusty C-hacking skills up to speed. When It Absolutely Has to Be in C XML-RPC is a wire protocol that describes an XML… (more…)
by David E. Wheeler 02/07/2003 In part one of this series, I identified the lack of support for Mac OS X by the libapreq library (which includes the Apache::Request and Apache::Cookie Perl modules) as a reason to build your own Apache/ mod_perl server. Although the other issues I identified with Apple’s default Apache installation remain, the libapreq issue is no longer quite as relevant. As of version 1.1, libapreq formally supports Mac OS X 10.2. This means that those of us running… (more…)
Tutorial Written By: Till Lots of programmers like PHP for its ability to code and develop web applications fast. Code-debugging is a lot easier than with PERL or C. However, there is one thing a lot of developers are puzzled about, “How to run PHP Scripts with crontab?” Cron is normally available on all Unix and Linux distributions; if you cannot access it, contact your root or server administrator. It is a daemon which allows you to schedule a program or script for a specific time of… (more…)
