Re: [PHP] [scalability, performance, DoS] To or not to process images at runtime
@Per Jessen Disk-space is cheap, especially if you don't need to be worried about backup etc. I'm not sure why you think applying watermarks in an off-line process would any less manageable than doing it on-line. Well, the processing will be online in the sense that it will be triggered via an admin interface. The pictures will then be batch-processed by a php script using GD and saved to the disk and later served statically, without the overhead of applying the watermark per-request, at runtime. Less manegeable becouse I would have to keep copies of the pictures on the disk. If I ever want to change these watermarks, I would have to somehow recreate them. It is more work to do than if I used the per-request runtime applying of watermark approach, since in this case, I would just apply the watermarks I wanted and then serve the stream directly from memory. Sounds like you are planning to do the processing off-line then. You could even do a mix - if you've got a lot of photos (millions and milloins), applying the watermarks could take a while in itself, so you could leave that running slowly in the background, but combine it with an on-line process that does on-demand watermarking (when the photo is displayed). Yes, applying the watermarks offline in a batch to lots of images could take a while, but the album wouldn't be published before this process is done. So, I don't really understand what you mean by mixing the two approaches. @Nathan for the code that will invoke the watermarking, put it behind another layer, so that you can easily alter it in the future as the site grows. for example, you might use strategy pattern, and your initial strategy will use the current webserver directly. however, as the site begins to grow, you can add additional webservers, dedicated to running gd on top of php. you can then write a strategy which will pass the requests off to those boxe(s), and it will be transparent to your existing code that knows only of the strategy interface. also, as you grow, distributed filesystems are key. for example, your front-end webserver can handle requests from users on the site, dispatch a request (restful for instance) to another box, dedicated to gd. since both boxes share a common filesystem via nfs (or other) the gd box can create the watermark, which will then be immediately available to the front-end box, which it could signal w/ another request to say 'hey, the watermark is ready'. You have come with some great insights, the strategy idea seems nice and could work. Adding dedicated image processing boxes is a good idea, even better if the software to apply it is written in C, but I don't think my use case justifies such an investment of time and money. Another thing that you mentioned that is of great interest to me is the use of a distributed filesystem, since I think I will just pre-process the images in batch to add the watermark, the use of HDD space will grow considerably as time goes by and the app grow. Is this approach transparent enough so that architectural changes to the app wouldn't be necessary? Thank you all for the replies! Marcelo.

Hmm, I don't usually think more work = less managable, but that's a
matter for you.
My personal take on this type of thing -
I would go for the on-demand watermarking, but with a cached copy of
everything that is watermarked. on-demand = when a photo is
published the first time. Like Bernhard said earlier, it probably
takes a few milliseconds to apply a watermark, so the very first time a
photo is viewed, the viewer might just experience the slightest delay.
With apache this is really easy to do:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-s
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ apply_watermark.php?name=$1
This means: if photo-with-watermark doesn't exist,
run apply-watermark.php to apply a watermark, write the
photo-with-watermark to cache/disk, and then output the watermarked
photo.
If you need to change the watermark, just erase the cached copies and
they're regenerated next time someone wants to view a photo. To save
on disk-space if that is a concern, you can run regular purges of
cached copies that haven't been viewed for a while:
find cachedir -atime +30 -type f | xargs rm

I have to do following task. 1. when user gives the url a installation page apears. when he clicks on user agree terms, it goes to then next page where he give information about database and other stuff with the registration key. 2. If the registration key goes to the company's site and checks for authetication and if they have bought the product or not. can any one tell me how do i go about this? and also how do will make these code unreadable so that user could not manuplate the code. get access without registration.

[PHP] Object overhead vs. arrays
I knew that there would be some overhead when working with objects vs
working with arrays, but I didn't expect this much. Is there some
optimization that I could do to improve the performance any? While
the script below is just a benchmark test script, it approximates
functionality that I'm going to need to implement. Ultimately, I need
to iterate through a large amount of data and am wondering if perhaps
I should encapsulate the data in objects (which closer represents the
underlying data) or if I should encapsulate it in arrays. Based on
what I'm seeing in this benchmark script, it seems like it should be
the latter...
Advice and/or input would be much appreciated!

Re: [PHP] php File upload
smaller files is no problem. The error occoured, if the uploaded File is bigger than the installed main memory. Ok, i know that http ist not designed for big uploads.

[PHP] Scripts for removing Reg entries
I was looking thru some of the scripts that were mentioned and I am wondering if there is a way to write on that will delete registry entries? I am trying to uninstall Office 97 on XP machines and there are a lot of pieces left after the uninstall has run. I would need to look and see if the entry exists and if it does delete it. Also, is there a way to script removing items that have been pinned to the start menu?

I'm confused as your code looks like it's already doing what you're
asking. It's hard to tell without seeing what bind_param() looks
like. But just a thought to use arrays in one of two ways:
// 1.
$this-db-bind('ii', $id1, $id2);
function bind () {
$args = func_get_args();
$this-statement-bind_param($args);
// then bind_param() can count the number of args and use them
}
//2.
$this-db-bind('ii', array($id1, $id2));
function bind ($var, $ids) {
// pass thru to bind_param()
$this-statement-bind_param($var, $ids);
// then bind_param() can use the $ids array
// or count the ids and send individual args to bind_param()
}
As I said, it's kind of hard to tell without knowing exactly what
you want to achieve.
One of the more elegant ways that I have seen is to pass required
args and then an array of args that the receiving function can use,
like:
$this-db-bind('ii', array('someoption'=$id1, 'feature'=$id2,
'action'='doit'));
Need more info on the desired outcome.
-Shawn
The bind_param() function is a built-in PHP MySQLi function (http://php.net/mysqli_bind_param
). I can't change how this accepts args (of course). Thanks for your
thoughts anyway. =D

No, high utilization of file system cache will not cause any swapping - file system caching uses whatever is spare. If there's nothing, no caching. AFAIU. I can confirm what you're seeing about the cache being used up - I saw that too. My cache-number only went to about 485000, and free only down to 6000-7000. My webserver also has 1Gb RAM, but it does a few more things. Does your free memory actually go as low as 0? I don't think this is about the file system cache - I know you said no limits, but what do you have for post_max_size and upload_max_size ?

Ok, is it possible to send any number of variables to db-bind() in
order to send those to statement-bind_param()?
Or, if someone else has a better db abstraction method, feel free to
educate...
Thanks,

I'm confused as your code looks like it's already doing what you're
asking. It's hard to tell without seeing what bind_param() looks
like. But just a thought to use arrays in one of two ways:
// 1.
$this-db-bind('ii', $id1, $id2);
function bind () {
$args = func_get_args();
$this-statement-bind_param($args);
// then bind_param() can count the number of args and use them
}
//2.
$this-db-bind('ii', array($id1, $id2));
function bind ($var, $ids) {
// pass thru to bind_param()
$this-statement-bind_param($var, $ids);
// then bind_param() can use the $ids array
// or count the ids and send individual args to bind_param()
}
As I said, it's kind of hard to tell without knowing exactly what you
want to achieve.
One of the more elegant ways that I have seen is to pass required
args and then an array of args that the receiving function can use,
like:
$this-db-bind('ii', array('someoption'=$id1, 'feature'=$id2,
'action'='doit'));
Need more info on the desired outcome.

The bind_param() function is a built-in PHP MySQLi function
(http://php.net/mysqli_bind_param). I can't change how this accepts
args (of course). Thanks for your thoughts anyway. =D
~Philip
innerHTML is a string. The DOM is not a string, it's a hierarchal
object structure. Shoving a string into an object is impure and similar
to wrapping a spaghetti noodle around an orange and calling it lunch.
function bind () {
$args = func_get_args();
call_user_func_array(array($this-statement, 'bind_param'), $args);
}
Maybe?

[PHP] A few questions about PHP's SOAP module
* I'm trying to better understand the 'classmap' option for the
SoapClient class. Is it used to define the class of an instantiated
object which will be passed as an argument to the server's function
call? So, as a very simplistic example, it might go something like
this:
?php
class MyClass
{
public $sStockSymbol ;
public function __construct( $sStockSymbol )
{
$this-sStockSymbol = $sStockSymbol;
}
}
$oObj = new MyClass( 'ibm' );
$oClient = new SoapClient( $sWSDL_URI, array( 'classmap' = array(
'StockSymbol' = 'MyClass' )));
$oClient-getStockValue( $oObj );
?
Am I even close? Now, what happens if one of the required arguments
to the server function is a variable that has a hyphen in it? Is
there any way I can get around that since PHP doesn't allow you to
define variables with hyphens?
* Whether using class/objects to pass parameters to a server function
(assuming I have the above correct) or arrays, how can you define
further attributes for each parameter? Is that even possible? So
here is an example of a SOAP message that the server is expecting:
?xml version=1.0?
soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/;
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema;
soap:Body

/SubArray3
/SubArray2
SubArray2 xmlns= encoding= node-type=/SubArray2
/SubArray1
/Array1
/ServerFuncName
/soap:Body
/soap:Envelope
How can I set up the attributes illustrated above? Encoding,
node-type, etc? Is that possible?
* Finally, is there a really good and/or comprehensive tutorial and/or
write-up on PHPs SOAP module? The documentation is pretty spartan and
what I have found doesn't really go in to much depth.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
thnx,
Christoph

?
Am I even close?
first off, let me recommend the phpt tests in the php source. for the soap
stuff, you will find them under ext/soap/tests. i was looking through a few
of them. looks like if you have a chunk of wsdl, like this
xsd:complexType
name=book
xsd:all
xsd:element name=a
type=xsd:string/
xsd:element name=b
type=xsd:string/
/xsd:all
/xsd:complexType
you can map classes to it like this (which i gather you already got) w/ the
$options param in the SoapClient constructor
class book{
public $a=a;
public $b=c;
}
it looks like you can use contructors too though, im a bit too lazy to hash
out the details as i go through the phpt tests =/ but anyway, instead of
instantiating book ourselves, the SoapClient instance will do that for us,
as in
$sc = new SoapClient(
$someWsdlAddr,
array(
'classmap' = array(
'book' = 'book'
)
)
);
$book = $sc-readBook($myFavBook);
so assuming there was a method defined in the wsdl, roughly like,
ns1:readBook
res xsi:type=ns1:book
a xsi:type=xsd:stringLord of the Rings/a
b xsi:type=xsd:stringJRR Token/b
/res
/ns1:readBook
we could then take the book instance the SoapClient created for us, and do
echo title: {$book-a}, author: {$book-b}; /// produces title: Lord of
the Rings, author: JRR Token
Now, what happens if one of the required arguments
to the server function is a variable that has a hyphen in it? Is
there any way I can get around that since PHP doesn't allow you to
define variables with hyphens?
soo, im guessing the wsdl might be something like
xsd:complexType
name=book
xsd:all
xsd:element name=a--
type=xsd:string/
xsd:element name=b
type=xsd:string/
/xsd:all
/xsd:complexType
normally, with variable variables, you could hack around this, as in
$varWHyphen = 'a--';
$$varWHyphen = 5;
however, instance variables cannot be created out of variable variables, so
i doubt thats possible in this context.
* Whether using class/objects to pass parameters to a server function
(assuming I have the above correct) or arrays, how can you define
further attributes for each parameter? Is that even possible?
well, i think so. basically, i think this feature is just a way to have the
SoapClient instantiate an object rather than just returning an array. so
the examples in the phpt tests are simple, but you might have a class that
actually has methods and so forth, you just use a soap call to create it.
then you go on your way. this could be a bit more desireable for some folks
than getting an array and using it to create an object themselves, i
suppose.
so for example in the book class above you might have,
public function __toString() {
return title: {$this-a}, author: {$this-b};
}
So
here is an example of a SOAP message that the server is expecting:
?xml version=1.0?
soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/;
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;
xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema;

/SubArray1
/Array1
/ServerFuncName
/soap:Body
/soap:Envelope
How can I set up the attributes illustrated above? Encoding,
node-type, etc? Is that possible?
dunno, maybe scope the phpt tests and see if you can figure something out..
i might play around w/ the example later, but as i said im weak on the
actual xml structure of the soap spec.

Ultimately, I need to iterate through a large amount of data and am wondering if perhaps I should encapsulate the data in objects (which closer represents the underlying data) i lost you on this one.. organizing data w/ arrays and objects should be essentially the same thing. they both support name value pairs and nesting. since data doesnt inherently have operations, i dont see how organization could be any better w/ objects (just my opinion). or if I should encapsulate it in arrays. Based on what I'm seeing in this benchmark script, it seems like it should be the latter... so when i tend to design a project, if i plan on using oop, i use oop. some systems might offer options to get back 'only' an array at certain points, as an optimization. however, if i see data and methods realating to one another, i tend to bundle them up in a class. of course you can just use plain old methods and arrays, but then thats a different style of programming. if its any slower, in my mind, i really dont care. i save time and sanity by using the oop techniques i know at design / impl time. soo, maybe more ram and cpu and objects on this one :D -nathan

[PHP] Kill Magic Quotes
PHP List,
I am developing a web site that is hosted on a web server where I do not
have permission to change the php.ini file.
This server has magic quotes turned on. I'd like them off.
I wrote two functions to detect when magic quotes is on, and to try and
counter act its effects. But it does not seem to be working. It seems to
have no effect, and I get slashes showing up in all sorts of output
where I don't want them. Not only in data put into the database, but
also emails sent to from the site contact page and other places.
Here are the functions I created. Where have I gone wrong?
public static function removeSlashes($string)
{
// Check if Magic Quotes is turned on.
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
// Remove escape slashes.
return stripslashes($string);
}
// Return a string that has no escape slashes.
return $string;
}
public static function restoreSlashes($string)
{
// Check if Magic Quotes is turned on.
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
// Add escape slashes.
return addslashes($string);
}
// Return a string that has escape slashes.
return $string;
}
Any advice much appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Kill Magic Quotes
If you can't change php.ini, and if it's Apache, you maybe can just
turn it off in .htaccess, far faster and easier than a PHP function.
You are calling the removeSlashes, right?
And, really, there is no reason for the restoreSlashes function to
exist. If you ever think you need it, you're wrong. :-)

Wrong way around.
If gpc is enabled, then there are already slashes - no need to add them
again.
If it's not, you need to addslashes.
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
return $string;
}
return addslashes($string);
Though I'm curious why you need to re-add them at all.

Re: [PHP] Kill Magic Quotes
Richard, Thank you for replying. If you can't change php.ini, and if it's Apache, you maybe can just turn it off in .htaccess, far faster and easier than a PHP function. I looked on the web and found this line: php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off ... and added it to my .htaccess file. But it doesn't seem to make a difference. I've set my scripts up so people can embed Google Maps on their pages. The problem I'm seeing now is that the output for the Google Map has all these additional double quotes that I don't know where they are coming from. Maybe it's not a magic quote issue? It looks like this: iframe width=\360\ height=\360\ frameborder=\0\ scrolling=\no\ marginheight=\0\ marginwidth=\0\... (trimmed for brevity) You are calling the removeSlashes, right? I believe I'm calling it everywhere there is some text being inputted or outputted. And, really, there is no reason for the restoreSlashes function to exist. If you ever think you need it, you're wrong. I guess that makes sense. -- Dave M G -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: Kill Magic Quotes
you may try the
ini_set('magic_quotes_gpc',0);
note, this line should be the first line of code.
also make sure that that your php opener is the first line in your script.
1. ?PHP
2. ini_set('magic_quotes_gpc',0);
3. # the rest of your script
The following won't work
1.
2. ?PHP
3. ini_set('magic_quotes_gpc',0);
4. # the rest of your script
Also a heads up for all readers,
Warning
This feature is DEPRECATED and REMOVED as of PHP 6.0.0. Relying on this
feature is highly discouraged
in php 6 the quotes will not be magically added.

[PHP] Using Ajax to populate a drop-down list
Hi, I have a form with two lists. One is populated with many options while the second is populated with only a single item. When the first drop-down list is changed, I call a PHP script sing AJAX to populate the second list. I also need to perform another task when the second list is changed but it seems not to work. I think this is because even though my AJAX script populates the second drop-down list using pure PHP code, the second drop-down isn't aware of it. I've tries adding JavaScript code in the AJAX route to add options to the list but it's not working. Does anyone have an example of how to do this?

Re: [PHP] Kill Magic Quotes [SOLVED]
Richard, Try php_value instead of php_flag, though both should work for this one. Whoops... my mistake. Without going into overly complicated details, I hadn't tested the original suggestion properly. Turns out, so far as I can tell, both of these lines work for me: php_value magic_quotes_gpc off php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off Right now I'm using php_value, so I'll stick with that.

Perhaps you also need to disable magic_quotes_runtime:
set_magic_quotes_runtime(0); // just call it once per page
Are you sure you actually call your removeSlashes() function?
Why do you think you need your restoreSlashes() function? (NB: not
sufficient for MySQL statements, and not applicable for some other
databases)

Keep in mind that the setting magic_quotes_gpc will not work at
