Hi all,
Sorry for the delayed response, I've added both Hayat's and ljb220's suggestions.
I've tried both, but still having problems.
Code:
//----------------------
test.php
<html>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function leave() {
window.open('close.php','','toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,height=10,width=10','');
}
// end -->
</script>
<body onunload = 'leave()'>
<?php include "functions.php";
global $connection;
$connection = pg_connect("host=localhost dbname=test user=test");
echo $connection." connection <br>";
echo pg_connection_status($connection)." status<br>";
pg_send_query($connection, "SELECT COUNT(id) FROM test"); // expected to take ~2min enough time to press stop
echo pg_connection_busy($connection)." busy<br>";
$res = pg_get_result($connection);
echo pg_num_rows($res)." # rows<br>";
echo $GLOBALS["connection"]." GLOBALS<br>";
?>
</body></html>
//--------------------------------------
close.php
<?php include "functions.php";
echo "closing connection<br>";
$f = fopen("/home/xxx/log","w"); // log file to trace the code etc...
fwrite($f,"new page\n");
fclose($f);
close_con();
echo "closed";
echo "<script>window.close();</script>";
?>
//--------------------------------
functions.php
<?php
/* when the page is exited, if the connection is not null, cancel and sql statements and
close the database connection */
function close_con() {
$f = fopen("/home/xxx/log","w"); // log file to trace the code etc...
$connection = $GLOBALS["connection"];
fwrite($f,"Closing connection\n");
$status = pg_connection_status($connection);
fwrite($f, $status." status\n");
if($status == 0){// connected
fwrite($f, "connected\n");
if(pg_connection_busy($connection)) {// busy so cancel last query
fwrite($f, "connection busy\n");
pg_cancel_query($connection);
fwrite($f, "query killed\n");
}
// close connection
pg_close($connection);
fwrite($f, "connection closed");
}
else {
fwrite($f, "not connected\n");
}
fclose($f);
}
?>
With this set up, the user enters test.php. Stops before the query finishes. It should call leave(). However, this dose not happen. I believe it is because the script has not finished and passed the page text to the browser (pls correct me if I'm wrong), until php has finished processing it.
I've tried using register_shutdown_function() as:
test.php
<html>
<body>
<?php include "functions.php";
global $connection;
$connection = pg_connect("host=localhost dbname=test user=test");
register_shutdown_function("close_con");
echo $connection." connection <br>";
echo pg_connection_status($connection)." status<br>";
pg_send_query($connection, "SELECT COUNT(id) FROM test");
echo pg_connection_busy($connection)." busy<br>";
$res = pg_get_result($connection);
echo pg_num_rows($res)." # rows<br>";
echo $GLOBALS["connection"]." GLOBALS<br>";
?>
</body></html>
The functions.php as above.
This also dose not work as, " The registered shutdown functions are called after the request has been completed" (from http://au2.php.net/manual/en/function.register-shutdown-function.php ). I'm interpreting that as, any functions in the list will not be
called until the pg_send_query() or the pg_get_result(), not sure which, returns. Then close_con() from functions.php is called via register_shutdown_function(). Thus I'm unable to cancel the query :(
Any comments, suggestions or work arounds would be greatly appreciated.
I'm using PHP 4.2.3
Cheers
Noel

onunload above can't call function from PHP, but it called from javascript, you can create javascript function to call PHP function/file that you wanna PHP do
<?php
// close_connection.php
include('connection.php');
global $connection;
function close_connection($connection){
// close_connection here
// .....
// .....
// .....
}
close_connection($connection);
echo "<SCRIPT>window.close();</SCRIPT>";
?>

<html>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function leave() {
window.open('close_connection.php','','toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,height=10,width=10');
}
// End -->
</SCRIPT>
<body onunload = "leave()">
