the way i posted worked fine with out either... he doesn't need to use these
to format the way his output is displayed, he only needs to use the proper
php syntax if i am correct.

http://php.net/htmlentities
You should really be using this for all output.
Hope that helps.

But what if the string is edited to contain single quotes as well?
Then your solution breaks anyway...
Like Chris said, you should be using htmlentities for output...

When I upload a file into an application I am writing with the HTML form
command
<INPUT NAME="userfile" TYPE="file">
and then give the PHP command
move_uploaded_file( $userfile , $destination_file_name);
the owner of the file is 'www'. Is there any way I am able to
automatically change the owner of the file to my FTP login identity (for
example 'rpiggott')

As far as I am aware only the root user can change the owner of files.
You could set up a very specific sudo command to allow the www user to
chown files to rpiggott but that's beyond the scope of this mailing list
(plus I'd have to look it up and you can do that just as well as I can).
Of course that would need you to have root on the server in the first place.

The owner of a file can change ownership of the file, too, I believe,
essentially "willing" it to someone else. Of course, that means your web
scripts can't access the file, either.
A better solution is to set the file's group permissions to 7, then chown the
file to apache:mygroup, then put both apache and your ftp user into the
mygroup group.

Just curious, why do you want to do this? What are you *really*
hoping to accomplish?

Dear php users,
Is there any way to decrypt data encrypted using openssl_seal
_without_ using openssl_open, and instead using the openssl command-
line tools?
Here's how the data is encrypted (using openssl_seal). The function
'store_for_later()' just base64_encodes the data and writes to an
archive location. $keycert contains the x509 certificate.
###
$key = openssl_pkey_get_public($keycert);
openssl_seal($plaintext,
$sealed,
$envelope,
array($key));
store_for_later($sealed, $envelope[0]);
###
Retrieving the stored data using php, by base64_decoding it and
openssl_open'ing it works fine. However, this sequence of commands
fails using the OpenSSL command-line tools:
###
bt$ openssl base64 -A -d -in envelope | \
openssl rsautl -inkey key.pem -decrypt > data_key
bt$ openssl rc4 -A -d -in sealed -kfile data_key
bad magic number
bt$
###
What's 'bad magic number' mean? I tried using the -nosalt option to
openssl, and get garbage from openssl, but no 'bad magic number'
error message. I suspect it has something to do with the way php
creates the initial rc4 key, as I get the same plaintext key if I
decrypt the "envelope" from within php or from openssl command-line.
Regards,
William

Hi guys,
I am trying to track where the people entered a unique page from (developing
an affiliate system).
I have been using the $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] to track this and record it
on a affiliate entrance of the web site. However, that is not tracking all
clicks. Only some of them have. I assume some of the links are not from a
traditional <a></a> link.
Is there any other way to do this?

HTTP_REFERER is not a reliable way of capturing a remote address. Sometimes
the client does not set it at all.

Check the archives - this has come up a couple of times just recently.
The usual way is to create URLs for referers in the following style...
http://domain.com/r/joesblog
Then you get /r/ requests routed to a referral tracker (several options
for that), map "joesblog" to a referrer, log the hit and redirect.

I will be sending files over my php script... One client asked me for a
project where he allow clients to send some large files (like 50mb)...I
thought that FTP (via PHP) will allow that.
Today he just give the FTP server user and password to his clients, but he
is worried about the security (of course!). Is there a better way? I was
thinking in split the files in several .RAR volumes... (actually, the
client
will send his .RAR files instead of a 50mb file), and use remote scripting
to upload each file separatly.
Eww, nasty.
Any Ideas?
Set the upload_max_filesize value for the directory where the upload
script lives. That would be the cleanest way to allow this to happen.
However, HTTP was not designed for uploading files of that size so you
are better off using an FTP server - this would almost certainly not
involve PHP at all. If security is a concern you could generate a
temporary FTP user from a PHP script that will get removed after, say,
24 hours. How you would do this will vary depending on the FTP server
you are using.
