Introduction |

|
|
============ |
| 7 |
|
|
|
| 8 |
|
|
I have tried to make the phpHtmlLib fairly easy to install |
| 9 |
|
|
and to use on anyone's current running site. There are a few assumptions |
| 10 |
|
|
I've made, but it shouldn't be a problem for 99% of the folks out there. I |
| 11 |
|
|
haven't tested the libs in a windows environment, as I don't have a M$ O.S. |
| 12 |
|
|
installed anywhere in my house. If you encounter any issues, please let me |
| 13 |
|
|
know. I welcome any and all feedback. |
| 14 |
|
|
|
| 15 |
|
|
Thanks and enjoy, |

Installing the libs |
| 22 |
|
|
================================================ |
| 23 |
|
|
|
| 24 |
|
|
1. Overview for the impatient |
| 25 |
|
|
-------------------------- |
| 26 |
|
|
|
| 27 |
|
|
$ mv phphtmllib <your webdir DOCUMENT_ROOT> |
| 28 |
|
|
|
| 29 |
|
|
NOTE: in your script, set a global variable $phphtmllib to the |
| 30 |
|
|
location of your phphtml install. If you installed it into |
| 31 |
|
|
your DOCUMENT_ROOT, you would do |
| 32 |
|
|
<?php |
| 33 |
|
|
$phphtmllib = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/phphtmllib"; |
| 34 |
|
|
include_once("$phphtmllib/includes.inc"); |
| 35 |
|
|
?> |
| 36 |
|
|
|
| 37 |
|
|
2. Requirements |
| 38 |
|
|
------------ |
| 39 |
|
|
|
| 40 |
|
|
The following requirements exist for using phpHtmlLib : |
| 41 |
|
|
|
| 42 |
jonen |
1.3 |
o PHP version 4.2.x |
| 43 |
jonen |
1.2 |
|
| 44 |
|
|
Optional |
| 45 |
|
|
o One of phpHtmlLib's DataListSource Classes can work with |
| 46 |
|
|
PEAR and/or ADODB DB abstraction layer classes. PEAR should |
| 47 |
|
|
already be installed if you have a proper PHP install. You |
| 48 |
|
|
can get ADODB (much better IMHO) from |
| 49 |
|
|
http://php.weblogs.com/ADODB |

3. Installing |
| 53 |
|
|
---------- |
| 54 |
|
|
|
| 55 |
|
|
1. Copy the entire phphtmllib directory into your website's source |
| 56 |
|
|
tree. I typically install it in DOCUMENT_ROOT/phphtmllib. |
| 57 |
|
|
You don't have to have it installed in the document root, but that is |
| 58 |
|
|
where I normally install it. |
| 59 |
|
|
|
| 60 |
|
|
2. In each script that uses the libs, you MUST set a global variable |
| 61 |
|
|
$phphtmllib to the path of your phphtmllib dir in your web tree. |
| 62 |
|
|
So, if you installed phphtmllib in your DOCUMENT_ROOT, like I do, |
| 63 |
|
|
then you set $phphtmllib = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/phphtmllib" |
| 64 |
|
|
I usually do this at the top of my scripts, or have a include file |
| 65 |
|
|
of defines and such that sets this. |
| 66 |
|
|
|
| 67 |
|
|
After that you should be able to include the main includes file |
| 68 |
|
|
include_once("$phphtmllib/includes.inc"); to include all of the files |
| 69 |
|
|
in the lib, or you can include each file that you need individually |
| 70 |
|
|
to save include processing. |

3. Optionally, review the SECURITY file if you are installing |
| 72 |
|
|
phphtmllib into a production environment. |
