Hi Peter,
I use about same system, but instead putting ids of tables into session
variable (which is easy to guess) I use a md5( uniqid( rand(), true ) )
string and I create an enreg into online tables (similar to your session
table) with this string as primary key. I also add into session a hashed
variable with host. When I receive a request I check session variable
($_SESSION['session_id'] in your case) and also the hashed string.
For session timeout I delete the enreg from table online (session in
your case). For this I have a function which is called at a request of
any script at a resonable interval (like once 10 mins) and remove from
table online every session that passed a number of seconds (which I
defined). When a request comes with a session id, and I don't find it in
online table I say that session is expired.
I'm not saying this is the best, this is what I use.
Regards,
Andy

Hi,
I would like to get some comments about my user system.
1. A user logs in, the username and password is checked against the database
2. If correct it adds a row in my database "session" with member_id.
$_SESSION['session_id'] will be set to the mysql_insert_id().
3. To verify if someone is logged on or not, I have a function isLoggedOn()
that checks if there is $_SESSION['session_id'] and it returns the
member_id. If not logged in, the isLoggedOn() returns FALSE.
4. I user the member_id to retrive specific member information
5. To logout, I just unset $_SESSION['session_id']
Is this an ok system to continue to work on? Or is this a very weak system
that is easy to break in to?
I am thinking about setting an new variable $_SESSION['member_id'] so that I
do not need to o a query every time to get the member_id.
Thank you very much!

Hi,
When I go thru this documentation the parsing seem to be very complex. With
Java this was not the case.
Assume I have XML like this:
$xml = '<greeting><from>Peter</from><to>The group</to></greeting>';
I would like to get the value of 'from' and 'to'.
My dream function would be:
$from = xml_function($xml, 'from');
$to = xml_function($xml, 'to');
Or maybe an function that create an array from the XML:
$arr = xml_to_array($xml);
Any one who can give a really SIMPLE example of this?
I would LOVE you.

Stupid me :) It has all I need!!!
And the opposite way, creating XML, must be even easier. Any function that take
an array as input, and returns XML? If not, I just need to create a recursive
function that loops thru the array. If there is a standard function I would be
very happy.
Right now I am getting killed by the strong Thai woman that is giving me
massage here in Bangkok.
Tnx

Foreach works here great.
you can recursively go through arrays.
not with standard foreach but with a small additions.
if you need code let me know.
i think there are also XML functions.
But forgot which one it was ><

Once again, check those user comments. There's some excellent examples
there, for two-way parsing XML files!

PROBLEM SOLVED!
yeah! :-)
What I actually was including was a variable ($main) and since some my
pages are called on from different pages in different folders what I
actually did was seting $main to the full URL to the site
(http://mysite.com/page.php) to avoid confusion. But when calling on a
URL I guess PHP is set to drop $_SESSION variables...
php is capable of opening files on remote systems via http,
when you did:
require 'http://yourdomain.com/yourpage.php';
you actually made a seperate request to youre own webserver
which when it was processed obviously didn't have the session
cookie (as pArt of the request) that would cause the session
array to be initialized with the data you would expect.
go read up on the ini setting 'allow_url_fopen' for more info on this.

That's why it is so important to post the source code.
Not rewriting it, post the code!
Ths problem would have been solved after 2 mins if have known that the

Hi Matt,
I use define's.
me too. mostly because unless you use the runkit extension or
something you can't undefine or change the values of a constant.
bare in mind though that define() is horribly slow (to paraphrase
Rasmus) which may be the reason many projects choose to use variables
instead. see here:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.apc-define-constants.php
With variables it's easy to forget to global'ise it when you go into a
function, define's don't have this issue.
also true :-).

Hello Everyone,
I have a config.inc.php file which basically contains all the

However, I've seen some open-source projects which either use
$variables or associative arrays to save the values.
My application works pretty fine but I'd like to solicit opinions from

That should've been my follow up question - which is, if define() is a
lot safer and more elegant to use than variables, why do many projects
use variables?
Would you guys know why this is so? AFAIK, in compiled languages like
C, constants are faster because the preprocessor expands them at
compile-time rather than being allocated memory during run-time - but
then we're talking about PHP here.

My use of CONSTANCE's and variables depend upon need. If I require a
constant throughout the main() portion of my code, then I use
define() and if I need something that is subject to change, then I
use variables.
However, from my personal programming experience (for all languages),
I find it best to write functions that are self contained -- that
don't rely on global variables or constants. They simply receive what
they need and return, if required, a result. If I place constants in
them, then it's harder to reuse the code for other projects.
Some constants are truly constants, like PI -- while other constant
elements change depending upon use, like db_name, user_id, and such.
The use of constants depends upon your programming style and your
ability to remain consistent in defining them.
Would you guys know why this is so? AFAIK, in compiled languages like

It's my understanding that php is written in C.

Consants are very good for multilingual sites.
Well and the name it self says what they are for:
To be constant.
So vars which have the constant same value should be defined as constants.
That's how i see that.
And safe, well. if php is safe, the vars in it are also.

Another option you can use is to create a "Config" class, and place all your
configuration state in it. This is probably the slowest, but easy to code
with.
class Config
{
function Username()
{
return "Snoopy";
}
function Password()
{
return "Secret";
}
};
This class is accessible anywhere, and your newer editors assist you -- type
"Config::" and you get a list of all your available configuration values.
It also makes it easy to have a configuration value that depends on state
(like "Debug", depends on which machine or folder it is running from).
I also have a class called "Settings" that are user-configurable within the
website admin page. All settings are placed inside a table, and the user
can monkey with them at there will. Settings::GetValue("Color") returns the
user-defined value from the table.
Just some thoughts

A small but significant factor in deciding whether to use define()d
constants is that constants can't be integrated into expressions as
neatly as can variables.
Variables can be embedded in expressions:
$sUserName = "Froggy";
echo "Variable: $sUsername.";
Result: Variable: Froggy.
Constants can't be embedded in expressions:
define("sUserName", "Froggy");
echo "Constant: sUsername.";
Result: Constant: sUsername.
In order to use constants in string expressions it's necessary to use
concatenation operators:
echo "Constant: " . sUsername . ".";
Ditto for heredocs:
Variables can be embedded in heredoc expressions:
$sUserName = "Froggy";
echo <<< hdExample1
Variable: $sUserName
hdExample1;
Result: Variable: Froggy.
Constants can't be embedded in heredoc expressions:
define("sUserName", "Froggy");
echo <<< hdExample2
Constant: sUserName
hdExample2;
Result: Constant: sUsername.
Likewise, functions & classes can't be embedded in expressions
without use of concatenation operators, and can't be used in heredocs.
Of course I'm not suggesting that our inability to embed
non-variables in string & heredoc expressions removes them from the
toolbox, it simply informs our choices within a given
application. Personally I love using heredocs, functions, and
classes and simply work around the embedding limitation.

Hello!
Can Curl be configured to use SSL certificates in strings, rather than in
files? I am storing my user's certificates in a mySQL database, and I don't
really want to write those certificates to a file, and then use the file, and
then delete them when I'm done. I would much rather just pass the certificate
to Curl as a string instead.
For example, instead of:
curl_setopt($Curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, "/tmp/cert.pem");
I would like to do:
$UserQuery = mysql_query("select * from Users where ID = 1000", $Database);
$UserRow = mysql_fetch_assoc($UserQuery);
curl_setopt($Curl, CURLOPT_SSLCERT, $UserRow["Certificate"]);
Is that possible? If it isn't using Curl, is there some other library I could
use to accomplish this? All I need to do is simple HTTPS posts and gets.

hi Jason,
you made the following claim on sitepoint (I would have reacted there
but couldn't be bother to crteate another website account) - which
I think is incorrect:
<QUOTE>
Nobody has yet brought up the slightly annoying issue that interfaces are actually implmented as abstract classes "under
the hood". This means you can't decare two interfaces with an identical method name
PHP Code:
interface boat {
public function drive();
public function float();
}
interface car {
public function drive();
public function rotateTires();
}
class amphibious implements boat, car {
public function float() {}
public function drive() {}
public function rotateTires() {}
}
</QUOTE>
You are correct in that amphibious can't implement both car and boat but you
suggest that this is because of a problem with the engine and that it should be
fixed.
But there is no problem and there is nothing to fix. (regardless of
interfaces a class can only implement a method once (we don't have C-like
function overloading) and that means you can't implement both interfaces,
besides which it makes no sense because if you we're allowed to implement
one drive() method to satisfy the 2 drive() interface methods then neither
the engine nor your code would know which of the 2 drive() methods
was actually bveing implemented (and if that cannot be determined then the
whole point of the interface becomes moot)
This misconception regarding broken interface functionality seems to seem from
content of your example. 'boat' and 'car' are not interfaces in my mind
rather I would see them (and 'amphibious') as [abstract] classes and if
they were to implement an interface 'vehicle' springs to mind as a candidate.
(also boats aren't generally 'driven' ;-)

Jochem

I am attempting to call a script that actually renders the image and
then check for a session variable. However, the session variable does
not seem to be there...
<?php
$fn = $_GET['id']; // filename
$p = $_GET['p']; // path
$img = "/srv/pix/" . $p . "/" . $fn ; // where the photos are + path + filename
if ( $_SESSION['photoid'] != md5("validphoto") ) // set by caller script
die( "Invalid photo request" ); // or redirect to alternate image
$_SESSION['photoid'] = "";
$render = @imagecreatefromjpeg( $img );
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($render,'',100);
imagedestroy ($render);
?>
Does anybody have an idea why the session var is not available?
The script above is called with this:
$_SESSION['photoid'] = md5("validphoto");
echo "<p><img border=0 src='showimage.php?id=$get_pic&p=$from'
alt=\"Photo $get_pic being located...\"></p>";

Hi All,
This may turn out to be more of an apache question (but I'm hoping there
are some apache experts on the list as well), but I'm wondering how I
would go about automatically redirecting requests for /rss.xml to read
the contents of /rss/rss.xml instead?
Any help appreciated!
Much warmth,

Best group member,
I want to read the content from a socket that is sending XML.
The socket_read(socket, length) takes the two parameters. But what I am
concerned about it, I do not actually know the 'length' of what is being
sent. How do I protect myself from that?
Right now I just use a value of 'length' that with margin is larger then the
size I will receive. Is it possible to get the size of what is ready to be
read from the socket?
Best regards,
Peter Lauri

IIRC, you just read in a loop while there's still stuff to read.

Ok, any standard value for the size to read per time? Will the total time be
faster if a larger maximum size is choosed?

Hello,
I'm writting a domain checker and for that, I want to use fsockopen to send
data to the registry's whois database.
Unfortunately I have always "Connection refused", Error 111 when try to
create a socket...
Even the example shown on php.net website doesn't work, so I believe it's
not a code problem from my side...
http://www.php.net/manual/de/function.fsockopen.php
PHP has been compiled with -enable-socket option, so I also think it's not
the problem neither. On top of that, I tried the same code on two different
machines (Ubuntu, FC4): same result...
I first thought it could be a DNS problem, but as I can use my browser
normally on the same PC, I wonder...
Any help would be highly appreciated ;-)
Thx:
BB

Are you just doing whois lookups? If so, there's an easier way on a linux
box:
$whois=`whois gmx.net`;//look up gmx.net in the whois database
print"$whois\r\n";//echo it to the screen

Hello,
>I am also creating the same thing...
>I use socket_create(), and it works fine. Who is the registrar?
Well I try querying denic which is the german registry.
I finally got it to work, but it seems it is a name<->ip resolving issue.
Instead of using the whois.denic.de as a name, I used the corresponding IP
address. And now it works.
What I really don't now, is why name resolution works when I use the command
line or the browser... ???
One error reported was (in combination with leaving out the "@" in front of
the fsockopen() function):
Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed:
Temporary failure in name resolution in /path/php/class/Request.php on line
22
...
Adding "@" in front of fsockopen and using Address instead of domainname
solves the problem (superficially)...
Thx for your help
