Do you remember yesterday’s (The Three P Three Modes Primer Tutorial) Rudimentary Profile Report featuring The Three Ps and The Three (PHP) Modes of Use? Well, we thought we could improve that application by offering the user a sharing functionality idea, and that is, as so often at this blog, the chance for the user to send an email snapshot of their Profile Report.

Please take a look at the PHP source code you could call interactive_becomes_web.php changed from yesterday in this way and for that first Surfing the Web mode we can give you a live run link to peruse, as well. We hope this helps you with some ideas.

We send the user off to their default email client by using HTML a tags with href properties starting with mailto: to achieve this.

If you examine the code you’ll see that a large number of calls are made to …

… to have it so that the link in the email is user genial.

We add little bits of CSS styling to make the HTML a tags look a bit like buttons, as well, and we hope this gives you some ideas.

Today we show three PHP modes of use with a Rudimentary Profile Report application, showing our usual (modes of use (ideas of)) …

  • Surfing the Web – with a URL typed into web browser address bar and interactively piecing together the (profile) report
  • Command Line PHP – with an interactive entry session on the (Bash) Linux command line on a MacBook Pro Terminal application session, and then firing off the report to a web browser (profile) report
  • Curl use of PHP – with a command on the (Bash) Linux command line on a MacBook Pro Terminal application session, and then firing off an interactive web page piecing together the (profile) report to a web browser report

And today we detect The Three P’s sleigh riding again, with …

  • PHP as the primary web server language used, using its exec method to call …
  • Python helps the Command Line PHP and Curl use of PHP modes fire up the web page in a web browser from the command line via the -mwebbrowser (Python command line usage) switch
  • Perl is used, a bit like the Linux sed command, to help the Command Line PHP and Curl use of PHP modes populate the Javascript DOM innerHTML property of the following web page’s H1 heading, to give context to whose profile is involved

We tried an idea for the first time today. Paring it down, the idea is the use of a PHP function …


function get_line($inidea, $j) {
$suffix="";
if ($j == 1) $suffix="<script> document.getElementById('myh1').innerHTML='Profile for ' + document.getElementById('t0').innerHTML + ' ' + document.getElementById('t1').innerHTML; </script>";
return "\n" . '<script> document.write(("<td>' . $inidea . '</td><td id=t' . $j . '>" + prompt("What is your ' . $inidea . '? You can Cancel or OK nothing.","") + "</td>").replace("<td>' . $inidea . '</td><td id=t' . $j . '></td>","<td></td><td id=t' . $j . '></td>").replace("<td>' . $inidea . '</td><td id=t' . $j . '>null</td>","<td></td><td id=t' . $j . '></td>")); </script>' . $suffix . "\n";
}

… that embeds within a <tr></tr> HTML table row, cell data information within those rows “on the fly”, by interactively asking for Profile (Report) information, at the client, via the Javascript prompt() method, encased within the Javascript DOM document.write() method.

So please take a look at the PHP source code you could call interactive_becomes_web.php and for that first Surfing the Web mode we can give you a live run link to peruse, as well. We hope this helps you with some ideas.
