Hello,
I've got a site that is needing to have two email addresses on it, one
for general contact and information and the other for webmaster for
site problems. I do not want these addresses to become harvested by
spammers yet i want to make it possible for people to email if needed.
I can not use javascript for this solution.
Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.

If Javascript isn't a solution (which I can understand for accessibility
reasons) then the only method I've seen that seems to work is to have
the email as an image in the same font style as it would be on the page
if it were just text. Facebook uses this to display contact email
addresses for people, and I've seen it used elsewhere also. The only
other method I've seen is to add in extra characters with a small note
to humans to remove them, but I find this quite a messy solution.
Unfortunately, you can't get away with just a contact form these days if
you're a business, as it's a legal requirement in some countries to have
a contact details available, and not just a contact form.

Ash

Another is a CSS solution where you type the email address backwards and
then use the CSS style declaration:
style="direction: rtl; unicode-bidi: bidi-override;"

Hope you don't mind, I've copied the list back on in this reply.
What Facebook used to do (it doesn't seem to any more for some reason)
is have a small image with the email address on, and the filename is a
random string of letters and numbers. Presumably the thought is that the
spiders that spammers use to harvest email addresses won't be using OCR
on every image it comes across to detect an email address as that would
be too time-consuming for them.

That's clever. I never saw that before.
I guess that you could also span portions of it to reverse and other
portions not to. Interesting.

How does that work with screen readers? How about copy-paste?

One way I do it at times is v-a-v what is seen in my .sig below.
It usually requires a fixed pitch font -- depending on how it's laid out.
I also use the image technique as described by others.
I also use the obfuscator technique with acceptable success.

I would not use _all three_ on the same email addy.... :-)

I don't think there's an accessible way of doing this. Anything that
allows a screen reader to speak the email address would also be
susceptible to spammers email scrapers.

Do you have specifics? I've never heard of such a requirement.
Notwithstanding Ash's assertion, I would suggest a contact form. The
email address is effectively hidden, and you can apply CAPTCHA to the
form to cut down on bot spam. It also introduces some discipline on the
user, and potentially allows you to categorize inquiries (making it
easier to pass them on to the proper person). You can also have a pick
list on the form which details which person you'd like the form to be
sent to.
In general, on contact forms or "about us" pages, I include some
physical address and possibly a phone number. This might satisfy Ash's
requirement for "contact details".

It's not my requirement, it's been a legal requirement in the UK for 3
years now.

Thanks for the link, Ashley, I'll admit I my ignorance regarding these

It's useful to leverage the work of others. So using parse_url() gets
you all the parsing stuff for a url without having to worry about the
spec (such as embedded user, password, port, parameters, and fragment.
Then we just augment to provide the extra functionality :)

Hi gang:
Considering all the recent parsing, here's another problem to
consider -- given any text, parse the domain-names out of it.
You may limit the parsing to the most popular TDL's, such as .com,
.net, and .org, but the finished result should be an array containing
all the domain-names found in a text file.

Nope, just a text file containing whatever and domain-names. The only

Hi gang:
Considering all the recent parsing, here's another problem to

You may limit the parsing to the most popular TDL's, such as .com,
.net, and .org, but the finished result should be an array containing
all the domain-names found in a text file.

I'm assuming it won't be anything as simple as assuming all the
domains begin with the http:// prefix? :p
Thanks,

Nope, just a text file containing whatever and domain-names. The only
domain-name indicator would be the period followed by an approved
TDL, such as .com, .net, or .org.
<?php
function rip_domains( $text )
{
$domains = false;
$pattern =
'[^-[:alnum:]]*'
.'('
. '[-[:alnum:]][-.[:alnum:]]*'
. '\.(com|net|org)'
.')'
.'[^-_[:alnum:]]*';
if( preg_match_all( "#$pattern#", $text, $matches ) )
{
$domains = array();
foreach( $matches[1] as $domain )
{
$domains[$domain] = true;
}
$domains = array_keys( $domains );
}
return $domains;
}
?>
Naive implementation. I'm sure I've missed edge cases someplace.
Cheers,
Rob.

To test example.com and www.php.net and other domain names
such as january.pilotpig.net and ca2.php.parasane.net, we need a
reliable method of checking. We don't want to match on regular
periods, nor on the 2.2million or 2.2 million or just 2,200,000
other potential matches. And not when we are double-spacing or
single-spacing, just when oidk.net and similar domains are found.
We'll match hyphen domains like l-i-e.com, but not fake_underscored_domain.net.
We also want to match http://-fronted domains like http://php1.net/,
which also contains a number. If we wanted to match domains plus
paths, but there was no leading http:// to indicate that it should
be a URL, we could extend this to grab things like www.facebook.com/parasane,
so long as we don't ignore the rare one-character SLDs like x.com,
as well as the domains in email addresses like danbr...@php.net
So if everything works as expected, we should see eleven domains
matched here, because ccTLDs like guthr.ie should be matched as well.
TXT;
/**
* $fromText can be defined via a file_get_contents() or
* similar function, while $fullLink should be anything
* but false to enable link-matching, which will return
* only link-like domains with paths attached.
*/
function extract_domains($fromText,$fullLink=false) {
// If we only want to match the domain names.
if ($fullLink === false) {
preg_match_all('/\b([a-z0-9\-\.]{1,}\.[a-z]{2,5})\b/',$fromText,$matches);
return $matches[1];
}
// If we want to match just domain names with trailing paths.
preg_match_all('/\b([a-z0-9\-\.]{1,}\.[a-z]{2,5}\/.+?)\b/',$fromText,$matches);
return $matches[1];
}
// Demo
echo "<pre>".PHP_EOL;
echo "Just domains:".PHP_EOL;
var_dump(extract_domains($text));
echo PHP_EOL;
echo "Full links:".PHP_EOL;
var_dump(extract_domains($text,true));
echo "</pre>".PHP_EOL;

Hi list,
My config is XAMPP 1.7.2 with PHP 5.3.0
I'm trying to run a php script as a cron job. The same script works
perfectly from the browser, but fails when I try it from the command line
(not yet set it up as cron).
I get the following error:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in
/opt/lampp/htdocs/CS/weekly_email_report.php on line 3
I tried using dl('mysql.so') before the mysql_connect, but to no avail, I
get:
PHP Warning: dl(): Unable to load dynamic library
'/usr/lib/php/modules/mysql.so' - /usr/lib/php/modules/mysql.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory in
/opt/lampp/htdocs/CS/weekly_email_report.php on line 2
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in
/opt/lampp/htdocs/CS/weekly_email_report.php on line 3
In general many functions that work when the page is accessed from the
browser, fail on the command line. I tried setting extension=mysql.so in
both the php.ini files (the one used by the web server and the one used by
the command line (/etc/php.ini, correct??), though not simultaneously)
Any pointers??
TIA
Ferdi

It sounds that maybe you have two different setups of PHP or that the
CLI isn't using the same php.ini as the server module. What happens if
you run a phpinfo() from the CLI? Do you get the output you expect? You
should see the php.ini location as being the same as the server module.
If not, you can pass the location of the php.ini in with the command
line arguments.
If you have two different installations of PHP (which some people tend
to do) then you might need to make sure the right modules are installed
on both.
Try the ini thing first and see if that fixes the issue.
Thanks,
Ash

Our company is looking to hire a PHP Developer for a short term project.
We're currently in the last couple weeks of the interview phase to narrow
down our options. We are looking for a developer that is comfortable
working with existing code as well as creating new code. You must be
skilled in PHP and MySQL in addition to HTML and javascript. Experience in
jQuery is a plus!
We're looking for candidates from the U.S. and UK only right now.
If you meet the requirements and are intersted, please respond with a resume
and contact information.
We'll be making a decision in the next couple weeks, so please respond soon!

Ironically, I believe that in the old days of PHP/FI the "+" was used
instead of "." -- to their defense, OOP wasn't even around then and so no
precedent had been set for the "." and I think they wanted to avoid
confusion with actual addition. I just remember having to go through and
re-work a bunch of code that broke b/c of this change.
But yes, I agree with you there. + should have stayed as the concat AND
addition, just like in JavaScript and other languages, and "." should have
been used instead of "->"
All of this I think could have been done AND maintain backwards
compatability with the use of some php.ini directives. Alternatively, I bet
some fancy regex scripts could also have been written that would migrate
"old" code to "new" code styles (I think the python guys did this for
"print")
*sigh*. It is what it is now. Ain't no going back from here. Like it or
lump it as they say.

Thanks Malka,
I was wondering if you had a web page I could go to before I sign up
to see some discussions that have taken place.
I tried using the lists.evolt.org, but it did not show the
javascript section.
TIA,
Karl

Listen, Karl, if you find something like this, let me know. I've been
looking for a javascript list as well.

Hey,
I just found this app that I think will do your single user login. It
is a MySQL monitoring app called MySQL Query Analyzer. It has the
functionality I think you were looking for. Might be worth a "look-see".
:))
Hth,
