Programming :: URL With Parameters Containg Ampersand?

May 20, 2010

[URL]... The above url is generated by PHP code.

Code:
if($msg=="No capex advice")
echo " .. <a href="upload_capexadvice.php";
if($msg=="No purchase order")
echo " .. <a href="upload_purchaseorder.php";
if($msg=="No invoice")

[Code]...

I pass two parameters in a URL, s and q. I recently ran into the problem that the & in the value(aerial&satelitecity)causes a bit of trouble so I need to replace it. After some research I found that it needs to be replaced by %26. I've tried the standard PHP functions htmlspecialchars and htmlentities, but they translate to & Is there another function that I haven't found yet or must I write my own?

Programming :: How To Run External Exe With Parameters

Mar 8, 2010

Specifically I'm trying to run xmacro from within a c program. If I were to run it from the terminal I would do it along the lines of Code: xmacroplay :0.0 < script_file.txt, but I want to run it from my c program. I'm fine with my c program running it from the terminal if that's possible and easier but I'm guessing there must be a better way.

Programming :: Bash Script Sed -r -i And -e Parameters?

May 3, 2011

I have a bash script where I am replacing a date with a variable

Code:
variable="date"
sed -r "s/([0-9][0-9])/([0-9][0-9])/([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9])/$variable/g" /path/to/file.txt
I have googled but cant find any info on what the -r, or sometimes I have seen -i and -e, after the "sed" I googled "sed parameters"

r appears to output the replaced date, but not change the original file. Usually using -i will change an original file for me. Does anyone know what the -i, -e, -r are about? A link to an explanation would be good, as I have been unable to find one in my searches.

General :: Command Line Terminated By Ampersand - Put It In The Foreground?

Jun 14, 2011

I know a program running in the background can be brought to the foreground by typing 'fg'. So, if

command_line &

really runs the program in the background, my question has just been answered. But then all reduces to this question (yeah, I know; but I'm asking in earnest): does the ampersand sign make the program run in the background?

Programming :: Passing Parameters From C Code To Bash Script

Apr 16, 2011

I get no print to stdout on screen from the C code.Does bash somehow block or mask it?I get print from bash. I get this error in the non-test bash script like: let "rdval = $rdstr"syntax error: operand expected (error token is " ")The let command prints rdval= but I presume this is due to the printf test statements getting in the way.I am getting no compile errors. Why does the C code not print the values specified?

Programming :: Access Grub Parameters Using Shell Scripts?

Apr 12, 2010

I am setting up my test / development machine with the following scenario in mind : I boot the machine and then select one of a number ( e.g. 3 ) boot options in Grub ( Normally "OpenSuse", "Safe Mode" etc., but in this case "System Restore Dev.", "System Restore Test" ). The only difference between these options are the settings ( e.g. "vga=378" ) in these cases something like "distro=dev" / "distro=test".

In a script run on the booted system I can extract the value of the "distro" parameter ( in this case "test" ) and use it as input for a command line tool. Meaning that name entered as the value for the "distro" parameter is used for loading a file when the system is up and running. The command line tool then restores the partition with the contents of the file and reboots the system.Now, my problem is this : How to I access the Grub arguments? Code snippets ( in shell scripting or python preferbly ) are more than welcome.

Programming :: Parsing Unflagged Parameters In Bash Script?

Apr 6, 2010

I've searched online and found many examples using getopts, but nothing that clearly explains it use, nor any examples of what I'm trying to do. I have a script named "process". It can take from 0 to 3 different options. I'd like to be able to handle these options regardless of the order that they are entered.

Syntax:
process [-v] [-d #] [-h|-?] [string]
-v = verbose mode on
-d # = how deep to do the process, expecting a number parameter
-h or -? = show command usage
string = only process lines containing the specified string

Programming :: Asm 64bit Registers - "64-bit Linux Allows Up To Fourteen Parameters To Be Transferred In Registers (6 Integer And 8 Floating Point)."

Mar 28, 2010

I have tried to learn how 64bit asm (nasm in my case) works and found, among the many disparate pieces of info on the net, a few vague inferences that floating point registers can be used for other purposes than what they are intended for, example: "64-bit Linux allows up to fourteen parameters to be transferred in registers (6 integer and 8 floating point)." This would be fantastic for string operations/manipulation (I have never used asm for floating-point operations), can anyone shed a bit of light?

I have a strange problem with RHEL4.7, with kernel 2.6.9-78.

I cannot set any kernel parameters by editing sysctl.conf file and run sysctl -p, everytime the old value appears, while it was possible before.

I tried to edit files under /proc by using vi when trying to save it gives me: E667: Fsync failed!
While echo 1>/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward also cannot edit the file.

Also I mounted proc device on another mount point:

Ubuntu :: Audio CD Extractor And VBR Parameters?

Mar 11, 2010

A couple of weeks ago I installed Karmic. In previous options in Audio CD Extractor I modified a string in the "edit preferences" to set the variable bit rate for MP3 ripping. Specically the option "VBR=4" (Lame New Algorthym) However, I now notice that the "VBR=" option is no longer there!

I've searched around and read some indications that using a newer realease of Lame this is no longer necessary. But its a bit unclear to me. Do I need to insert VBR=4 or not? and if I do anyway will it affect anything?

Debian :: Add Parameters To Module And TVtime?

Jan 25, 2011

Just installed squeeze from previous Lenny and am having problems. With Lenny, for the tv card, needed: the modudule saa7134 card=54 tuner=78, i.e. had to give it the card= tuner= stuff - it could not autodetect that bit. Squeeze appears the same:

Code:
[ 5.055340] saa7133[0]: subsystem: 17de:7253, board: UNKNOWN/GENERIC [card=0,autodetected]
So, question, how do I give it the module options? - the problem is 'modconf' will not unload the saa7134 module because it says it is in use, even though the TV is not being used. And # modprobe saa7134 card=54 tuner=78 does not appear to do anything - it does not say anything but nothing shows on dmesg. Here is how tvtime, a fairly fool proof tv player, behaves:

Code:
root@fido:/home/lugo# tvtime
Running tvtime 1.0.2.
Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /root/.tvtime/tvtime.xml
mixer: Can't open device /dev/mixer, mixer volume and mute unavailable.

Debian Configuration :: Permanently Add Boot Parameters?

Mar 12, 2011

I installed Debian 6 last night on an older Compaq. For the system to properly reboot and shutdown when requested, both acpi=force and reboot=warm must be in the boot parameters, this was required with other Linux distros installed on this hardware. Otherwise, the system erroneously shuts down when reboot is chosen.

I would like to know how to permanently add these so they pass each time the system is turned on.

I already added these to /etc/default/grub (and ran update-grub afterwards) and at the next startup, noticed they were NOT in the parameters when "e" was pressed at the boot menu.
