[PHP] scan a text string to pick up certain words

2004-08-11 Thread Alex Shi
Hi All,

I guess regex can do the trick but I don't know much about regex :((
Here is what I want:
Say a text string in which there're several words enclosed by {
and }, for example {hellow}. I need to pick up each of the words
like this and print them or do some processing one by one. 
Can any one please show me an example how to do this in PHP.
Thanks in advance!

Hi All,

Can any one recommend a strong/stable PHP/MySQL based web 
mail system? It must support large mail transfer, some times may be 
more than 10 MB for a single message.

[PHP] Very weird issue....

2004-07-20 Thread Alex Shi
Hi all,

Please take a look at following very simple script;

#!/usr/bin/php -q
?
echo Hello, world!\n;
if (!$tty) {
$tty = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
}
print Hello: ;
$ch = fgets($tty, 1024);
print $ch\n;
?

I tested it on many servers. Here is how it running (you can 
figure out yourself): Firstly it displays Hello, world!, then 
displays Hello:  at second line and waits for user input; 
You input a yes and it displays the yes; then end. So, on 
the screen you will see:

Hello, world!
Hello: yes
yes

However, on one of the servers, it doesn't run like above, 
but in a reversed way: Firstly, it displays nothing but waits 
for your input; you input a yes, then it displays the yes, 
then Hello, world!, then Hello: yes. So, on the screen it
looks like this:

yes
Hello, world!
Hello: yes

Weird? To me IT IS! I really don't understand why all the 
echos/prints did not function until the script got data from 
tty, even they are before fgets..

I found this issue during an unsuccessfull pear installation. 
The pear installer stopped and waited for my input without 
any prompt - there is prompt message but not displayed!

Can anyone let me know how this can happen? Thanks
in advance!

[PHP] using PHP script to simulate a login

2004-07-16 Thread Alex Shi
Hi,

We have a web interface to do following:
1. login
2. check phone number (maybe thousands of)
3. logout.

I am just wondering is it possible to use a php script to simulate 
the three steps? I understand that after login the web server will 
send a cookie to browser, so in that way a session can be kept 
at the visiter's end in correspondance to the web server. However
I have no idea is it possible for a script to simulate browser's 
session handling?

[PHP] Got error Inappropriate ioctl for device when trying ssl connection....

2004-07-07 Thread Alex Shi
Hello,

I got an error message when trying following script:

?
//..
if (!$handle = fsockopen (ssl://my.com, 443, $errno, $errstr, 
$timeout = 30)) {
   print $errno: $errstr\n;
   return -1; /* connection failed */
}

/* The my.com site WAS installed with a SSL certificate, and 
it works perfect if access from a browser with 'https://' prefix. */
//..
?

The errstr said 25: Inappropriate ioctl for device.
I'm using PHP 4.3.0. Its phpinfo indicates that OpenSSL is 
enabled. 

However, I also tested the script on a server with php 4.3.2
and it works perfect. Both PHPs are OpenSSL enabled but 
why behaved differently?

Thanks in advance!

[PHP] php unlink a file - is it possible?

2003-10-08 Thread Alex Shi
Hi,

How can have a php script unlink/delete a file uploaded via FTP? 
Usually a ftp-uploaded file belongs to the ftp user, and a php
script is running by apache/nobody. Seems like there shouldn't
be any way to do this...OK, my situation is that I want a php script
to this: it can move bulk uploaded (ftp) file to certain directories 
and then remove the original files, something just like a move.
If anyone knows on how to move or delete a file, please give 
me a hand. Thanks in advance!

[PHP] header ('Content-type...') does not work properly if session_start initiated...

2003-09-26 Thread Alex Shi
Hello,

I have a strange problem with a download script. Here is the situation:
On my development server, the php is 4.0.6 while on the application 
server it is 4.3.2.  I created a very simple code for opening pdf in 
browser. the main part of it is like following:

?
 session_start ();
...

 $docPath = '/path/to/file_name.pdf';
 $pdftmp_name = 'tmp_name.pdf';

 header ('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate');
 header ('Content-Type: application/pdf');
 header ('Content-disposition: inline; filename=' . $pdftmp_name);
 header ('Content-length: ' . filesize ($docPath));

 readfile ($docPath);
?

This code is working perfect on development server. However
on the application server, it will first ask for confirm downloading
then report error saying that cannot download.

I checked the code line by line and found that if remove the first
line session_start () then it will work in the correct way. However
session is required for this script. I don't understand why it works 
OK on the development server but not for application server.

Thanks in advance for all help!

 If it doesn't have to be automatic, I believe you can open
 an ODBC connection to the MySQL database and use the export
 functionality of Excel. I may be wrong since it's been a
 while since I've done anything with Excel, but it's worth
 a try.

[PHP] How to set a timeout limit for a call of a connection?

2003-03-10 Thread Alex Shi
Hi,

I have a script in which there is a call to open a remote file:

fopen (http://www.somewhere.com/file.php?foo=bar;, r);

Sometimes if www.somewhere.com is down, it will stuck at the function
for very long a time. I hope to setup a timeout limit for this function
(just
this), so that it won't stay very long to wait for a result, but just quit
if the
call take a time longer than timeout limit, and then go on for next steps.

Thanks in advance!

 You can't control the timeout with fopen(). Try looking at fsockopen().
 You can set a timeout for that.

I checked the manual. From the example, it is apparently that timeout only 
works for the handle setup by fsockopen, but not for fsockopen itself.

Re: [PHP] Post method

2003-02-28 Thread Alex Shi
 Curl will let you perform post operationgs, take a look at
 http://www.php.net/curl.

 Note you will need to have libcurl installed and PHP will have to be
 compiled with curl support.

 There are also probably classes that allow you to do post requests, take
 a look at the script repositories, hotscripts.com and you might try
 phpclasses.org as well.
  ^^
Thanks! I found a great class in phpclasses.org.

[PHP] again, dynamic image of text string

2003-02-15 Thread Alex Shi
Hi,

I am using following script to generate a dynamic picture from 
a text string. It works fine for both my developing server and the
application server (a virtual host). Both server are Linux RH. 

?
$im = ImageCreate (110, 16);
$white = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
$black = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);
$blue  = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 255);
//  ImageFtText ($im, 10, 0, 0, 1, $black, /path/verdana.ttf, hello);
$font = 2;
ImageString ($im, $font, 0, 1, hello, $black);

Header (Content-type: image/png);
ImagePNG($im);
ImageDestroy($im);
?

The ImageString utilizes a php built-in font to generate image. 
However if replace this function with ImageFtText() (see the 
commented line), it will get error on both servers. 

On my developing server the error is no ttf support. I checked 
phpinfo and in the GD section it says it does not have ttf support, 
so I would assume a recompiling with ttf support will resolve the 
issue.  

On the application server since the server API is CGI but not 
Apache, all type of errors will be shown as 500 internal error. 
I checked the phpinfo in its GD section ttf support is enabled. 
I tried several different types of fonts but all get same error. 
I found those font files from windows and uploaded them to the 
server. I don't if the Windows fonts could work for Linux.

 Easy to do what you want.  Check out the image functions in the php

[PHP] PHP 4.1.2 session problem

2003-01-29 Thread Alex Shi
Hi,

I am sure at least I was not a newbie in the topic I am talking about.
But this problem made crazy. I was hoping for a bit of help please.

The problem is: you have to make double correct logins to get into 
the session protected area. Here is the situation:

1. server configuration:
PHP 4.1.2,
Rapidsite/Apa/1.3.26 (Unix),
FrontPage/5.0.2.2510,
mod_ssl/2.8.10,
OpenSSL/0.9.6e 

2. the the login script:
?
session_start ();
session_register ('_SS_AUTHEN');
if ($_SS_AUTHEN == 'passed') {
header (Location: protected/index.php);
}

if ($trying = $HTTP_POST_VARS['trying']) {
// for the first time display the page don't check
$userID = $HTTP_POST_VARS['userID'];
$userPwd = $HTTP_POST_VARS['userPwd'];
if (check_user_ok($userID, $userPwd)) {
$_SS_AUTHEN = 'passed';
header (Location: protected/index.php);
} else {
$error_msg = 'Error: username/password not matched!';
}
} else {
$error_msg = '';
// for first time display the page, no error_msg
}

// require login page
require 'templates/timereport_login.inc';
// in the login page, $error_msg will be displayed
?

3. in the session protected area, each php file must be added with
following code at very begining:

?
// check session
session_start ();
if ($_SS_AUTHEN != 'passed') {
$reDirect_to = '../login.php';
} else {
$ReDirect_to = 'thescript.php';
}
header (Location: $ReDirect_to);
?

Again, with the script above, the problem is: you have to make 
double correct logins then you can get into the protected location.

The similar scripts have been used in many different projects but 
only this one get so weird result. So I would prefer to say session 
behaviour on this server is abnormalHowever, I do hope I myself 
made something wrong thus the bug is possible to be fixed...

Thanks for any help in advance!

[PHP] need help for a where clause

2002-10-06 Thread Alex Shi

Hi,

I need a where clause in following situation:

Say I want to query two tables: A and B. In table A there is field 
Afn, while in table B there are 3 fields: Bfn1, Bfn2 and Bfn3. I want  
to do a query, in which the where clause must do these things: 

if A.Afn=1, then check value of B.Bfn1;
if A.Afn=2, then check value of B.Bfn2;
if A.Afn=3, then check value of B.Bfn3.

So how can I create such a where clause to do this? 
Thanks in advance!

Yes I have read about the array functions in the manul. But I don't
think they are what I need. What I want is to drop what ever an
element from an array, not just from top or bottom.

I can create a function to do this. But I need a better solution, that
is to say not to cost too much memery.

A solution on that depends strongly on how much values A.Afn would take. For
3, it's still okay. But i wouldn't do more.

Against what shall the B.Bfn* be checked? What Data do you want to be
returned
from the query?

try:

SELECT ### FROM A, B WHERE
  ((A.Afn=1) AND (B.Bfn1 = ...)) OR
  ((A.Afn=2) AND (B.Bfn2 = ...)) OR
  ((A.Afn=3) AND (B.Bfn3 = ...))

where you should replace ### with things you want to select and ... with the
things you want to check.

On more than 3 different values for A.Afn, you should use a more normalized
version of B.

i.e.: B contains only one Bfn field and a Reference to A.Afn.
 - SELECT ### FROM A, B WHERE B.AfnRef = A.Afn AND B.Bfn = ...

[PHP] Server API

Hi,

My hosting provider still using CGI as Server API. I think this is way too
much dropped behind. On my own development server I use Apache as

learn something before I ask my hosting provier. Thanks!

 there's
  a huge basic differences between the two but I don't know them!
  In PHP 4.2.2, variables passed by either GET or POST method can

  from $HTTP_POST_VARS or $HTTP_GET_VARS. To my understanding,
  directly using submitted variables by their name is one of the basic
 great
  PHP features, and I always use vars in this way. However, you can
  imagine that, recently due to the PHP upgrading I got bunch of
 problems
  when deploying.
 
  What I want to know are:
  1. why PHP changed the way to access submitted vars;

 PHP wasn't changed, it just changed the default of one configuration in
 php.ini. Set your register_globals back to ON and things are just as
 they were in the past.

 It was changed to stop poorly written code from having as many security
 issues. If you use a variable $var, you have no idea if it came from the
 user, session, cookie, or from the script. You have to remember it
 yourself. So, you may assume your script made $var, but it really came
 from the URL. Using $_GET['var'] lets you know for sure that that value
 came from the url. With register_globals off, you know $var was created
 from within your scripts and cannot of came from a user.

  2. any good suggestion to avoid this problem, such as that is it
 possible
  to configure 4.2.2 to compatible downward.

 register_globals = On

 I woudl tend to believe it depends what kind of link it is...
 is it and HTTP downlaod site (which would use the windows save file as

[PHP] Template and Replacement

2002-08-13 Thread Alex Shi

Hello,

Currently I am using following method to generate dynamic page
content:

1. Create a page template, in which the places where substitution 
is supposed to take place are marked by a key bracketed with 
'{' and '}'. For example: {news}, {date}, {headlines}, {article_content}..

2. in php script:
- prepare all the content and assign them to varialbes which have 
exactly the same name as the keys in the template. for example:
$news = ...;
$headlines = ...;


- create a array using all the keys in the template. in this example
it is:
$keys = array (news, date, headlines, article_content);

- dump the template into a buffer:
$page = file ($template_file_path);

- do replacement:
foreach ($keys as $key ){
   $page = str_replace ('{'.$key.'}', $$key, $page);
}

- send out the page:
print $page;



OKay, this process works perfect. However I am thinking that 
this might not be a effective way do to replacement because
for each key replacement the whole template has to be scanned.
No, this is too expensive. What I am currently thinking is, just
use one scan but do all replacements. Here is my proposed 
solution:

1. create an associcate array using the keys and their values:
$pattern = array (
  news = ...;
  date = ...,
  headlines = ...,
  
);

2. scan the template and, when found something matched with
'{[what_ever_a_key]}', replace it with $pattern[what_ever_a_key]. 

I would assume that with step 2 just one scan all replacements
can be done. However I don't know with what php function and
regex this solution can be implemented. Any suggestion, advice
are highly appreciated!

 I haven't use up2date but perhaps this will work anyway. Open a terminal
 and execute this:

   rpm -ql php-manual

 The 'l' will tell you where the package was installed. While,

 Hi,
 
 I upgraded php from 4.0.4p11 to 4.0.6 with up2date (a RedHat Update
 Agent). The new php includes a huge manual but I cannot find where is
 it after installed, and I don't know how can access it. And more, my free
 disk space is only 120M. So I am thinking to uninstall this manual. Any
 one know how can do uninstallation? Thanks in advance!
 
 Alex
 
 P.S. thank @ Edwin for your suggestion for upgrading.
 

 You're welcome!

 This thread is leading into non-PHP territory (ie you're better off asking
on

 use. However if the ISP only allows certain ports, eg SMTP, HTTP, _and_
 you're already using those ports, then you're stuck up a creek.

 Of course you can always ask your ISP to unblock that port. Why are _they_

Sorry for the confusing...the ISP is the hosting company where my client's
web site hosted. That's why I need a php solution for this...

The thing is that, the MySQL table resides on a remote web server, my client
want to download it and access it in Access.

Alex

 You can also use ODBC (Ships with Acess) to make a DSN connection to
MySQL.
 Access can retrieve data from any ODBC DSN.

[PHP] Re: Newbie Questionabout variables

2002-05-25 Thread Alex Shi

Not sure what your question is

In the case password is not a variable but the value of
the variable, while admin is the name of the variable.

Variables passed by url is obtained by GET method, and
in your script all vairables passed by GET method can be
accessed directly. So, in following script,

?
.
print $admin;
.
?

the result of print will be password.

If this is not the answer to your quesiton, pls clarify.

 I hope this posting is not a duplicate.  I originally posted it yesterday,
 but it doesn't show on the newsgroup for me.

 Apparently you can set a variable as part of a URL statement.  For
example:
 www.company.com/index.php?admin=password.

 Where password might be a simple variable to test as a rudimentary
 authorization password.

 I can't find anything like this on the php website or manual.

 Can someone point me in the right direction?

 Hi Guys,

  I need a PHP script that will allow me to upload/download chmod files etc
 on
  a remote server...
  I know there are loads of these scripts out there but being a newbie to
PHP
  I really dont know which one is good...
  can you recomend any? coming from Java I love PHP so would appreciate if
 you
  would recomend only a php script and not perl,servlet,asp etc.
  Another problem is my webserver is something like
  /wtn/cgi-bin/www/

  all cgi scripts will have to be put in the cgi-bin directory of course
but
  must be called like this mysite.com/cgibin/script.pl

  the php script should allow me access to this directory too!

  ANY ideas or recomendations will be deeply appreciated esp from John
 Holmes,
  Jason Wong, Miguel Cruz coz you guys are really brainy and have helped me
 in
  the past so I know your advise is supurb.
  I would tip my hat to you, but dont wear one...;-)

Hello,

I have created several web sites using php. In all these sites
session id is passed via cookie. However I noticed that some
times it was passed by url. I am thinking that to pass session
id by url will be safer than by cookie. However I don't know 
how can do this without change my code. Do I have to do any
configuration on php so that I can use url session id but don't

 While I understand the necessity in not answering every question that a

 the following is documented at

 or
 see the Content-Type: header for instructions on how to do this.

 Do you think someone who won't read the docs, or search the archives,
prior to
 the question understands what RTFM means?

 My recommendation: http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net
 While this is not using the mail() function, it is a more robust, more
 functional method of sending mail, including multi-part, SMTP-Auth,
 attachments, etc, that works with a variety of MTAs including Sendmail,
Qmail,
 and direct SMTP transport.

Re: [PHP] I want to use a mailer other than sendmail

2002-05-03 Thread Alex Shi

Thank you, Rasmus. I am going to try your way right away..

Alex

 Alex, the real answer is to just turn your sendmail into a SMTP
 passthrough.  It is dead simple to do.  Locate your sendmail.cf file.
 (Yeah, I can already hear the screams of anguish, but this file isn't
 actually all that bad)
 
 Now find the line that starts with DS and change it so it says:
 
 DSmail.mindspring.com
 
 for example.
 
 Then restart your sendmail.  And now hocus-pocus-presto-shazzam, your
 sendmail suddenly works great for all your apps, not just PHP.

[PHP] MySQL connection problem?

2002-01-13 Thread Alex Shi

Here is my situation: 
1. Two hosts: HA and HB, both connected with each other via Internet.
2. On HA there is a MySQL server SA and a Web server WA, while on
HB there is a SB and a WB.
3. On WA there is a page, on which there are two buttons: ba and bb.
The ba is linked to a script sa.php while bb linked to sb.php. Both the 
scripts are lcated on HA. The sa.php only talks with SA while sb.php 
talks with both SA and SB. So connection between sb.php and SB 
will have to go via Internet.
4. Sometimes both the scripts works well, when click on either ba or 
bb the scritps responce very quickly. But sometimes there may be
problem with sb.php: when click on bb the WEB just stuck there and 
the small earth keep on rotating but nothing return. The most strange
thing is that, if something wrong with sb.php, you cannot stop it. You 
click browser's stop button (it do looks stopped because the earth 
stopped) and then click ba (will call sa.php), still got nothing return, 
the browser seems not wake from sb.php's problem.

I guess it might be something to do with MySQL connection via internet.
But have no clue how to look into the problem.

Could any one here can point me the right direction to get it fixed?

Thanks in advance!

[PHP] How MySQL Query and Fetch work?

2002-01-08 Thread Alex Shi

Yesterday I posted a question yet got response. The question 
is regarding to how Query works. Now I repost it in a more 
specific way.

I am just wondering how MySQL API functions work. Let's look
at following two functions:

1. mysql_query(), 
2. mysql_fetch_array()

To my understanding, mysql_query() will definately to its job with
MySQL server. But how about the latter? Does it just fetch data
from client/local buffer, which is previously put in by mysql_query(), 
or still has to goto server side to fetch data?

[PHP] How Query Works?

2002-01-07 Thread Alex Shi

My situation is to access a remote MySQL server, and of course
I do care about traffic. Suppose In a script there's a query:

$result = mysql_query (select * from employ where age45)
or die (Invalid query);

I am just wondering that if MySQL server would return all the query
result in total, so that the following fetches won't go to server again.
This is what I expect. However if it does in the other way, I mean
MySQL would hold the result and the following fetches had to go 
server to obtain dataOh my GOD it will definately cause trouble-
some traffic

Is it a MySQL question, or a PHP question? I'm not sure.
I am thinking that PHP's API would have something to do with 
Query behaviour.

Thanks for all reply in advance!

Re: [PHP] How to compute time to load page...

Re: [PHP] How to compute time to load page...

2001-12-08 Thread Alex Shi

This is an Einstein problem :)) Maybe we need a time server 

However, we can have an alternative solution to get round turn time.
Let's say on page A there's a link to a backend script. When the link
is clicked, then use javascript to pick up current time T1 and pass it to
the script. This script will send a page back to browser. Let's say this
is page B. Time T1 is passed to the js of page B. And at the end of
page B a js function will pick up current time T2. When the page
rendered at local browser, we have both T1 and T2. Thus we calculate
the time difference of a round turn. I know it is not a final solution
but this is acurate.

Hope someone else out there can give better solution.

[PHP] HTTP Environment Varialbles

2001-12-06 Thread Alex Shi

Hi,

I have a question about how we can read environment variables. In perl we
can
do this as following:

$caller = $ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'};
$doc_name = $ENV{'DOCUMENT_NAME'};
$visitor_ip = $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'};
$visitor_host = $ENV{'REMOTE_HOST'};

Actually in Perl, either SSI or CGI, we can get all the environment
variables.

How can we do the same thing in PHP?

Re: [PHP] HTML mail

2001-09-06 Thread Alex Shi

Hi Sid,

Following link is an article about sending MIME email in php:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/kartic2807.php3

But I think it is too complicated for me to read:((.  I suggest you
can try following instead:

example
$email_address=[EMAIL PROTECTED];
$subject=anything you can do;
$email_contents=HTML test: write your HTML tags here;
$tips=Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit;
mail($email_address,$subject,$email_contnets,$tips);
/example

here $tips is the key for html mail.

Hope this can help.

Alex

[PHP] Problem with header()

2001-09-05 Thread Alex Shi

Hi,

Can anyone tell me why header() cannot been used after any network
operation?

In my script, there are following steps:

1).a socket is opened for smtp; 
2).send email;
3).closed the socket; 
4).use header() to redirect to another page. 

If no 1), 2) and 3), 4) can be processed without any problem. But if 
socket steps added, system will send warning message: Cannot add 
header information - headers already sent by ( output started at.)

So, it seems like fsockopen will cause a header to be sent and other 
header cannot been sent after that within same scritp even though
the socket is closed. Now my question is how can the second header
been sent?

Alex

Re: [PHP] what does this line means? Many thanks

2001-09-05 Thread Alex Shi

strstr($str, $needle) returns a substr start from first occurance of $needle
in $str to the end of $str.

strstr($value,VLD:) !=  ? $VLD_CNDTNS[] = strtr($value,VLD:,) :
$SBMT_CNDTNS[] = $value;

equivalent to:

if( strstr($value, VLD:) != ) {
$VLD_CNDTNS[] = strtr($value,VLD:,);
} else {
$SBMT_CNDTNS[] = $value;
}

This kind of express is borrowed from C.
