Outputting data without echo/print
 
Well I'd like to see how inventive you all are in outputting data to the screen without using echo or print or C hooks (Alan)


Here goes my try

PHP Code:

function newecho($text)
{
     $path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/file.html';
     file_put_contents($path,$text);
     include_once($path);
} 

Alan @ CIT 03-01-2008 08:13 PM
Can't beat good ol' streams :-)

PHP Code:
function newecho($text)
{
    $output = fopen('php://output', 'w');
    fputs($output, $text);
}

It might be kinda lame but there is always var_dump();.
PHP Code:
$myVar = 'TalkPHP';
var_dump($myVar); 

Wildhoney 03-01-2008 10:15 PM
If we're going to be lame then there's printf, too!

php Code:
printf('%s', 'TalkPHP');

Long live the geniuses.

Damn it, you beat me to it.
PHP Code:
$name = 'TalkPHP';
$threads = 1365;
$posts = 10486;
$members = 1892;

$myString = "%1\$s current stats: Threads: %2\$s, Posts: %3\$s, Members: %4\$s";

printf($myString, $name, $threads, $posts, $members);

He didn't say using only PHP. I guess that what Salathe was getting at.

Salathe 03-02-2008 11:18 PM
It outputs data without using print/echo. Put it in a .php file and try for yourself.

ETbyrne 03-03-2008 01:24 AM
Don't forget sprinf() and fprintf()! :-P

You could also use include(), include_once(), require() , and require_once().

ummm
PHP Code:

#include <iostream.h> 
using namespace std; 
 
 
int main() 
{ 
  cout << "Hello World"; 
  return 0; 
}

Austin6641 03-13-2008 10:33 PM
There is always this:
PHP Code:
<?php
die("Hello World!");
?>
It would cause problems if you wanted to execute code after that though...

Orc 03-13-2008 11:09 PM
PHP Code:
<?= "Hello World." ?>

ReSpawN 03-14-2008 01:41 PM
PHP Code:
<?php exit('TalkPHP'); ?>

martins256 03-25-2008 06:43 PM
PHP Code:
<?php
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @imagecreatetruecolor(51, 20)
      or die("Cannot Initialize new GD image stream");
$text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
imagestring($im, 2, 5, 3,  "Talk", $text_color);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 246, 122, 48);
imagestring($im, 2, 29, 3,  "PHP", $text_color);
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>

wow i didnt know you can do that with php

ReSpawN 04-28-2008 06:45 AM
Search the web for GD library. And uh, why start a silent command (@imagecreatetruecolor) and then call up the or die ("..") function...? Couldn't you then just better $im = @imagecreatetruecolor(...); if (!$im) { exit('DieCommand'); }

sketchMedia 04-28-2008 10:54 AM
PHP Code:
die(chr(0x54) . chr(0x61) . chr(0x6C) . chr(0x6B) . chr(0x70) . chr(0x68) . chr(0x70)); 

Kalle 05-22-2008 01:41 PM
HTML Code:
<p>Hello TalkPHP!</p>
=P

ReSpawN 05-22-2008 06:28 PM
*sigh* ...

Didn't see this one yet.
PHP Code:
die('Bye Bye TalkPHP');

You beat yourself to it by using exit() earlier, but this person also did. ;)

As in response to ReSpawN's exit() code:
You can't use exit()'s parameter to specify a shutdown message, thats why we have die(). exit()'s parameter is an integer that tells the shutdown code.

exit(0); means that the program shutdown correct just like in C++:

Code:
int main()
{
        return 0;
}
;-)

Salathe 05-23-2008 11:39 AM
exit can take a string argument (in place of the usual integer). If the argument is a string, it gets printed just before exiting just like with die. Try it. :-)

TexasMd91 06-12-2008 08:27 PM

Never said it had to be in PHP. XD

Village Idiot 06-25-2008 03:18 PM
PHP Code:
$im = @imagecreatefromJPEG("bg.jpg");
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagestring($im, 3, 5, 2, "Hello TalkPHP", $black);
header("content-type: image/jpeg");
echo imagejpeg($im);
imagedestroy($im);

Mah way of outputting data without using echo/print:
PHP Code:
<?php
system("echo wut");
?>
...hey i didn't use php's echo. :(

Dr_Neffy 08-22-2008 06:40 AM
PHP Code:
<?php
$a = array("TalkPHP Rulez\n");
print_r($a);
?>
or with a system and without any echo or print
PHP Code:
<?php
system("perl -e 'printf `hi TalkPHP\n`'");
?>
(lol)

wiifanatic 08-23-2008 12:25 AM
Code:
document.write('O HAI');

rune_kg 08-23-2008 08:03 AM
The same, but different
 
<?=`echo Hello_World`?>

zendkush 08-26-2008 08:32 AM
Use a java bridge!
Code:
// action handler to fill button
function clicked($sender, $e) {
  $win = new Mono("Gtk.Window", "phpinfo()");
  $win->set_DefaultWidth(640);
  $win->set_DefaultHeight(400);
  $pane = new Mono("Gtk.ScrolledWindow");
  $view = new Mono("Gtk.TextView");
  $buffer = new Mono("Gtk.TextBuffer", new Mono("Gtk.TextTagTable"));
  ob_start();
  phpinfo();
  $buffer->set_Text(ob_get_contents());
  ob_end_clean();
  $view->set_Buffer($buffer);
  $pane->add($view);
  $win->add($pane);
  $win->ShowAll();
 }
 $btn = new Mono("Gtk.Button", "Show output from phpinfo()");
 $btn->add_Clicked(new Mono(
                                "System.EventHandler",
                                mono_closure($this, "clicked")));
// then send button to window.

Howzabout some Error Tossing
 
PHP Code:
<?
ini_set('display_errors','on');
error_reporting(E_ALL);
trigger_error('Woah, error d00d',E_USER_NOTICE);
?>
What? It works. You can even execute stuff after it too :-D

Ross 09-02-2008 08:16 PM
PHP Code:
file_put_contents('error.html', '<p>error\'d</p>');

$ch = curl_init('error.html');
// explanatory line
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURN_TRANSFER, false);
curl_exec($ch); 

Village Idiot 09-10-2008 03:14 AM
C++
Code:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    fstream file_op("test.txt",ios::out);
    file_op<<"Hello World";
    file_op.close();
    system("test.txt");
    return 0;
}
Only tested on windows XP, but should run cross platform.

sketchMedia 09-10-2008 10:52 AM
I can confirm it compiles on linux, although you may need to change the line:
cpp Code:
system("test.txt");
to something like
cpp Code:
system("cat test.txt");//cat vi nano whatever 
 
so linux knows what to do with it.

in a similar vein, heres ruby:
ruby Code:
File.open('test.txt', 'w') {|f| f.write("Hello World \n\r") }
exec("cat test.txt")

erect 12-02-2008 09:59 PM
how about breaking out of php and just getting the html to output?

PHP Code:
?>text to this page<?
no echo's or print's involved
