Hi,
I am trying to upgrade my server to apache 2 from
apache 1, but i am running into a problem
in apache 1, i had the following line:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php ..php3
..phtml .htm .html
now if there is a certain directory where i specify
to turn the engine off:
<Directory "/home/httpd/test">
php_flag
engine on
</Directory>
it would still server the regular .htm pages
fine.
Unfortuanetly, it seems in apache 2, it does not
allow this.
if i try to server a page from a directory where i
have turned the engine off, it prompts the my browser to download the ..htm file
now.
i can't remove .htm and .html from my AddType
because I have .html files that have php code unfortuanetly.
has anyone found a way around this?
thanks

hi, I'd like to start developing php applications that will access oracle 9i
databases.
I am trying to setup a development enviroment using Linux so I was
wondering what should I download/install from oracle's web site in order to
compile php with 9i support.
I am assuming that there is some sort of devel package only with the
libraries and headers...
The database is already running (under Windows).
regards,
mena

You will need to download and install Oracle Instant Client which is
free. How to setup PHP to use it, you can read at http://www.php.net/oci8

Hi,
most probably, things like XSS (Cross-Site-Scripting) and SQL-Injections
might lead to a successfull hacking-attempt.
If you try to write your own online store, make sure that you do NOT use
register_globals!
Try to google for XSS and SQL-Injections, there might be plenty of
information on the web.

Hi,
I was checking on several php/mysql based on line store, free and
commercial, but didn't find any that fits the best for us. Looks like,
it would be the best to develop one.
To make a online store that works fine - it shouldn't be such a big
problem.
To make a SECURE ad SAFE online store - that's the tough one form me.
Before I even start building the store, can somebody point usual
"traps" and problems, and security problems that usually happen, some
advices, any advices?
Thanks for any help!

feel these are great solutions, specially hard-coded array, it would
make me able to take full control of level browsing even though when
sections are reused(I guess).
ex.
home > Departments > Articles
home > Categories > Articles
home > Users > Subscriptions > Articles
Here 'Articles' would be an action that can be reused to show articles
from different patterns and levels, so with the hard-coded array I
would do this, but now I must see how to call the show_location()
function(where I implement the logic) and with what arguments, from
the Articles' Action and how make it decide that is one section and no
other(keeping the track) in some dynamic way. Hope don't fall into
redundant jumping again.
What do you think?...

Hello, all -
I've been trying to figure out a reliable way of creating user:pass
combinations to be used from within an Apache-based .htpasswd file.
>From what I understand, PHP's crypt() function is almost identical to
the Linux system crypt() function, which 'htpasswd' uses. However, when
using PHP's crypt(), my result string is much longer than the one that
can be found in your ordinary .htpasswd file generated by 'htpasswd'.
However, thi smight be what I'm looking for, since 'htpasswd' is know to
use two different types of password encryption:
(from htpasswd's manpage)
"htpasswd encrypts passwords using either a version of MD5 modified
for Apache, or the system’s crypt() routine. Files managed by htpasswd
may contain both types of passwords; some user records may have
MD5-encrypted passwords while others in the same file may have passwords
encrypted with crypt()."
Does PHP's crypt() use that modified version of an MD5 routine, and
that's what I'm seeing?
Basically I'd like to make an application that can modify any .htpasswd
file, adding and deleting users, without actually running the 'htpasswd'
utility.
Thanks!

Hi there,
Is there any way to get the file descriptor of an IMAP stream opened
with imap_open?

No. You'd have to manually connect to the IMAP server with socket
functions or whatever.
One way to look at it is that imap_* functions are a higher level of
abstraction than raw file descriptors and sockets, so providing the file
descriptor would break that abstraction.

This won't help with that, but please stop top-posting.
Your ISP is probably adding it because it thinks you're message is spam.
It might be something to do with your signature, maybe the word "gauge"...
Talk to your ISP.

You could use wordwrap() to wrap lines at 50 characters and then just take
the first line....

Hey Philip you can use this function
function cuttext($text, $maxChars = 20, $tail = '')
{
$arrWords = explode(" ", $text);
$temp = "";
for ($i=0; $i<count($arrWords); $i++)
{
$temp = ($i == 0 ? $arrWords[$i] : " ". $arrWords[$i] );
if (strlen($temp) < $maxChars)
{
$returnStr = $temp;
}
else
{
return $returnStr.$tail;
}
}
return $returnStr;
}
Usage:
echo cuttext("Please visit my site", 15, $tail = '..');
This will echo "Please visit"

In this code, I'm not getting the value of $list passed to the Mailman page.
I've checked this umpteen times by now, but fail to see the error. I've
beaten myself suitably with a steel ruler -- but it didn't help. Nor does
the cold I'm coming down with I suppose.
Anyone see the error, and feel like pointing it out to me?
