Re: [PHP] How to send mail with authentification?

 Hello!
 
 Our SMTP-Server has changed to authentification. Now we cannot send
 mails anymore using mail(). How can I set the password in mail?

The built in mail command cannot handle authentication.  There is a class on
phpclasses, though, that can.  I forget which one it is, but you can start
your search here:

http://phpclasses.php-start.de/browse.html/class/2.html

Looks like you have a little re-coding ahead of you.

 There has to be somewhere you can pick up a script or function that will

If you can search by US Zip Code or lat/long, search the archives of this

believe PHP Classes
(http://www.phpclasses.org/mirrors.html?page=%2Findex.html) has some scripts

Sometimes, it's appropriate.  You can't tell me that if I'm programming in

you shouldn't sprinkle it about too liberally, either.

Re: [PHP] PHP 4.0.6 file upload problems?

 One of the users of OPT has major problems uploading files to the system and I
 have absolutely no clue why that is. His PHP version is 4.0.6 on Linux.
 Quoting his description of the problem:
 
 In fact, now it doesn't even report an error. It just takes some time
 (about 30 seconds) trying to upload, I guess. The progress bar in the
 bottom of MSIE 6.0 shows it doing something, but then it 'finishes',
 while still showing the page with the 'Add a new document' form.
 
 I know, your first thought is that OPT has a problem - but here's
 another report from the same user when I directed him to alter some
 stuff in a MySQL database:
 
 By pasting it into the 'query' window in phpMyAdmin, but I was
 surprised by the result. Instead of an error or successful result from
 phpMyAdmin, I got a browser error from MSIE: 'This page cannot be
 displayed'
 
 I have absolutely no idea why this happens - when he sent the first
 report, I started thinking it may have been some php.ini setting
 regarding uploads, but I was completely confused by the second report.
 
 Did anyone encounter this? Is it a PHP bug? Is it a setting?

Well, you could post the code you're tryingbut as I found out recently
while learning this, if a file is bigger than max file size, $_FILES['name']
will have 'none' and $_FILES['size'] will be 0.  (I thinks that's
$HTTP_POST_FILES under 4.0.6).  Check thatOtherwise, we need more info
about what 'is not working'. (Not sure what query you're checking in
phpMyAdmin...)

 tmp_name and size *are* set -- none is PHP's way of saying it didn't
 actually upload anything, and 0 is the correct size for a file that wasn't
 uploaded anyway!
 
 At a guess, you've exceeded one of the size limits -- check the settings of
 the php.ini parameters upload_max_file_size and post_max_size (which should be
 larger than upload_max_filesize).  And, just for good measure, check that
 file_uploads is turned On!

Hmm.  Sure, file_uploads is onand I just tested with a really small
file...andyup.  Looks like I'm going over some limit.  Crap, I thought I
had that nailed down.  Thanks - back to the manual for me.

[PHP] Using Sessions under Win98/Apache

2002-05-15 Thread Edward Marczak

I've been developing a PHP driven site that will ultimately run under
Solaris and Linux - no problems there.

But I set up a small development/test environment on my laptop running
Win98.  Downloaded the PHP binary (v 4.1.2) along with Apache (v 1.3.24) and
MySQL.  Everything works greatalmost.

Sessions aren't working for some reason.  Yes, they're enabled in my php.ini
file (and running a php_info() confirms that session support is enabled).
The odd thing is, is that it will create the 'sess_038d7' file.  Just no
data goes into it.

Yes, I'm running the exact same code against it that I'm running against the
Solaris and Linux PHP.

Is there something different about the Windows version that I don't know
that is causing my sessions to not work?

Thanks!

Re: [PHP] security checks with sessions...

On 5/15/02 12:38 PM, Jas [EMAIL PROTECTED] pressed the keys forming the
message:

 I am wondering if someone can help me understand a good way to use sessions
 to check to see if a user has entered a user name and password before
 allowing them to view the rest of the page.  I need to have this check on
 each page, just not sure how I can pass the sessions to each page, as of yet
 I can get the variables I have registered to pass from the login form to the
 login check, and from there it seems to drop the session variable I
 registered.  Any pointers would be great!
 Thanks in advance,

You need to use session_start(); on each page (in fact, it has to be the
very first thing).  That'll tell PHP to either look for an existing session,
or to start a new one.

To store variables for later use by the session, use $_SESSION[varname];

Now, when you say, I can get the variables I have registered to pass from
the login form to the login check, and from there it seems to drop the
session variable I registered, without looking at your code, it's tough to
tell what's going on.

I'm having a problem with Windows right now that is causing that same
problem.  Other problems would be:

- Not using session_start()

- Not storing the variables correctly for later retrieval (e.g. Using
$_SESSION).

- Not passing the session ID, either yourself or letting PHP do it.

Check the manual for the section on sessions.  It explains a lot.

the keys forming the message:

 You probably want to get 4.2, or 4.2.1 if it's out.

Didn't think those were considered production quality just yet.

 How are you registering variables for the session? Is register_globals on or
 off in your php.ini.

Off

 If it's off, you register a variables just by using
 $_SESSION[var] = value;
 instead of using
 session_register(var);
 $var = value;

Yeah, I'm using $_SESSION[blah]

 If register globals is on, then use the second method with
 session_register().
 
 This is all after you call session_start, of course.

Of course.

Again, this is all code that works perfectly against a setup I have on
Solaris and Linux.  And again, I'm using a file handler for sessions, and
the 'sess_037df7670' file gets created.  Just that nothing ends up in it
- which is a problem when PHP goes to retrieve a session.

Thanks for the response.

Re: [PHP] Using Sessions under Win98/Apache

On 5/15/02 3:47 PM, 1LT John W. Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED] pressed
the keys forming the message:

 I'm not sure what it could be then. If you try a simple test script, doing
 nothing but starting a session and setting a value, does it work?

No.

 If that still doesn't work, then definitely upgrade to 4.2.1.

The reality is, why should I?  I want to match my production environment as
closely as possible.  Is this working for other people or not (under
Win98/WinApache)?  Are you saying that sessions never worked under this
configuration until v 4.2.1?

 Load this script up:
 ?
 session_start();
 if(isset($_SESSION[var]))
 { echo variable is already set; }
 else
 { $_SESSION[var] = one; }
 echo pClick a href= . $_SERVER[SCRIPT_NAME] . here/a;
 ?

It remembers the variable for the duration of the script.  Once the page is
reloaded, since the session is never written, I get nothing.

I appreciate your help on this.  However, my frustration is that it's not my
code, it's something with the system setup - which seems right!

[PHP] Web Hosts and PHP 4.10 +

2002-02-07 Thread Edward Marczak

I know the subject of web hosts that support PHP comes up frequently - but
here's a twist:

After going through the archives, and checking out many, many hosts, I
haven't found a web host that is up to PHP 4.10 or better.  Most seem stuck
at 4.04 or, at best, 4.06.

Since 4.10 made some important changes/improvments, (and most of my code
already takes advantage of this), I'd like to find a host supporting 4.10
and MySQL.

I understand I could run a dedicated server, but I'm trying to save that as
a last resort right now.

Any recommendations?  Thanks.

[PHP] 4.10 New Vars Question

2001-12-25 Thread Edward Marczak

Hello!

Two items in the new 4.10 change-log caught my attention:

*Introduced a new $_REQUEST array, which includes any GET, POST or
COOKIE variables. Like the other new variables, this variable is also
available regardless of the context. (Andi  Zeev)
*Introduced $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE, $_SERVER and $_ENV variables, which
deprecate the old $HTTP_*_VARS arrays. In addition to be much shorter to
type - these variables are also available regardless of the scope, and
there's no need to import them using the 'global' statement. (Andi  Zeev)

However, I can't seem to find any documentation regarding these variables on
the php.net site.  Any pointers?  Am I missing something obvious?  Thanks!
