Subject: [PHP] Keyword Constructor
For a long time I wanted keyword parameters in PHP. But thanks to newer
features like traits and reflection classes I have come up with something that
looks pretty close.
trait KeywordConstructor {
public function __construct($members) {
$class = new ReflectionClass($this);
$properties = $class->getProperties();
foreach ($properties as $p) {
$name = $p->getName();
if (isset($members[$name])) {
$this->$name = $members[$name];
}
}
}
}
class User {
use KeywordConstructor;
private $name;
private $age;
}
$lobby = new User(['name' => 'Lobby', 'age' => 36]);
Right now this requires the trunk version of PHP to work. I just wanted to
share this in case anyone finds it interesting and/or useful.

In the model I profiled, it is a system design that * requires * the
ability to retrieve secured data. For my solution, they would have to
have physical entry into the premises that hold the key/s (local
encryption done offline).

Of course, obfuscation is never a great security solution. Compiling it

de-compiled.. if so, then probably not a great solution either.

It's never a good idea to store all your keys in code, that is why we have
an iv, and a salt that you can use... neither is program encryption, since i
can dump it in it's executing form out of memory fairly easily; this is why
hard drive encryption without a controller that does crypto off the main
system is fairly pointless...

True, but in the system I was referring to, only the closed source
app knows how to "see" the key in the encrypted templates and there is
no way for another to know how to decrypt the encrypted templates to see
any of the other keys in the code... It's a unique solution for this
type of topic. I don't want to go into too many details because it's not
about PHP and my intention with bringing it up was to see if others knew
of a similar solution within PHP.. which I'm thinking there is not.

Well, not with the situation/app I was talking about..
this is why
hard drive encryption without a controller that does crypto off the main
system is fairly pointless...
I'm not exactly sure what you are saying here.. but there are good
reasons to have built the system that I was referring to... safe
retrieval of secured data being the main idea.
Look, I agree that in a typical online passphrase type of setup,
creating a hash to be matched for access is a great solution under
sensitive situations. You don't need to retrieve the pass as the owner
can change it if they forget... however, encryption is absolutely not
worth nothing and the O.P. stated he was trying to learn about PHP's
mcrypt.
Much of the time, a spec requires the access retrieval of secured data
and a developer will have no choice anyway ;-). Not all sensitive data
is at the same sensitivity level either... so mcrypt has its place.

Hey all,
I get the basics of submitting a form and organizing the $_POST data within
arrays (name[], name[key], etc). But if I wanted to submit something like
multiple addresses and have it end up organized in array form like this from
submission is this possible?
$addresses = array(
0 => array(
'id' => '1',
'address1' => '...',
'address2' => '...',
'city' => '...',
'state' => '...',
'zip' => '...'
),
1 => array(
'id' => '2',
'address1' => '...',
'address2' => '...',
'city' => '...',
'state' => '...',
'zip' => '...'
)
);
For some reason I can't seem to come up with the right naming schema in
forms in order to get this structure.

It should be pretty straight foward. Your fields would have name such as these:
name="addresses[0][id]"
name="addresses[0][address1]"
name="addresses[0][address2]"
name="addresses[0][city]"
name="addresses[0][state]"
name="addresses[0][zip]"
And so on.

Thanks. I think what I got hung up on was that I was trying this:
name="addresses[][id]"
name="addresses[][address1]"
name="addresses[][address2]"
name="addresses[][city]"
name="addresses[][state]"
name="addresses[][zip]"
Which wouldn't have given the end result I sought, I don't think. Clear case
of not seeing the forest for the trees.

It probably would have worked just fine. Not specifying the numeric
index means that PHP will depend on the order that the browser sends
the values, but they are generally sent in the order they appear on
the form. If the numeric index is important, it's better to provide it
explicitly.

What Jamie posted is equivalent to this:
name="addresses[0][id]"
name="addresses[1][address1]"
name="addresses[2][address2]"
name="addresses[3][city]"
name="addresses[4][state]"
name="addresses[5][zip]"

Please don't top-post, the gremlins don't like it :)
Going back to Bálint's post, the autocomplete="off" can be set either at
the form or form element (input) level. Bear in mind though that if you
do this, the HTML will not validate. This isn't normally an issue, and
may be an acceptable tradeoff for your website.

hi i can't see anything wrong that will cause memory problem
but parsing 1gb memory limit doesn't come enough for just parsing a 50 kb
file
but when i try to parse another file that is 24 kb 24 mb becomes enough
memory
here is the script
http://pastebin.com/H9mG7ucU
if you go to
rss.php?id=175069119656&titlebaslik=1
no problem
when you try to parse
rss.php?id=102741716484127&titlebaslik=1
Allowed memory size of 25165824 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 90564532

still same error
Allowed memory size of -2147483648 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate

Hello, im new to the whole storing sessions thing and I really dont know how to ask this question, but here it goes. So on my site when someone logs in the login.php file checks for a the username and password in the table i created, then if it finds a match it will store a $_SESSION [] variable. To be exact the code is as follows:
if ($count=='1')
{
session_start();
$_SESSION['user']=$user; // $user is the $_POST['user'] from the login form
header('location: login_success.php');
}
Now what i would like to know is how do i make my website save new changes the user made while in their account?
thanks!

You will have to store the user account related data in the database for
persistence.... Or if the site not having a 'user account system' you may
use cookies to store the settings...

I have a php script with a simple condition. If it is not satisfied I
want to exit the script otherwise I want to continue. I am having
difficulties getting it to work. The script is just exiting..
Please excuse my indention. Gmail tends to distort it.
Thank you,
Chris
This is what i have so far:
if (!session_id())
{
session_start();
}
if($_SESSION['signed_in'] == false | $_SESSION['user_level'] != 1
|| $_SESSION['user_level'] != 2 )
{
//the user is not an admin
echo 'Sorry, you do not have sufficient rights to access this page.<br/>
You must be a technician or an engineer to create a store visit.';
exit;
}
else {
continue;

It will only exit. Current user has user_level of 1 so that is not an
issue.

Yes. It might not be the best approach, but I am assigning the user a
value: 1, 2, or 3 while they create an account. This will limit what
they will be able to post. For example I only want users with user
level of 1 or 2 to be able to complete the form in this script. Hence,
the control structure I am trying to include.

Ok so I have tried to create a sort of messaging system on my website and I have run into some problems storing who the message is from, ill try to take you through step by step what I am trying to do.
step #1 (messages.php): <--This is where the member will view the recent messages that have been posted
<div id='messages'>
<?php
include 'connect.php';
session_start();
$_SESSION['user']=$user;
//store sql queries
$sql="SELECT * FROM entries";
$result=mysql_query($sql, $con);
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($count<1){
echo 'There are no messages yet!';
}
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo 'From: ' .$row['from'];
echo '<br/>';
echo 'Subject: ' .$row['subject'];
echo '<br/>';
echo 'Message: ' .$row['body'];
echo '<hr/>';
}
?>
</div>
Step #2 (create_message.php):<-- This is where the user creates a new message
<h2> Create new message</h2>
<table border='0' width='100%' cellpadding='3px' style='text-align: top;'>
<form method='post' action=''>
<tr width='100%' height='30%' style='margin-top: 0px;'>
<td> Subject </td>
<td> <input type='text' name='subject' maxlength='30'></td>
</tr>
<tr width='100%' height='30%'>
<td> Body </td>
<td><textarea name='body' style='height: 200px; width: 400px;'></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan='2' align='center'><input type='submit' name='new_message' value='Send!'/> </td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
Step #3 (insert_message.php)<-- this is where my problem is (trying to insert $_SESSION['user'] into table ['from'])
<?php
include 'connect.php';
session_start();
$user=$_SESSION['user'];
if ($_POST['new_message']){
include 'connect.php';
session_start();
$_SESSION['user']=$user;
$body=$_POST['body'];
$subject=$_POST['subject'];
$date=' ';
$sql="INSERT INTO `entries` (
`id` ,
`from` ,
`subject` ,
`body` ,
`date`
)
VALUES (
NULL , '$user', '$subject', '$body', '$date'
)";
if (mysql_query($sql,$con)){
echo 'Inserted!';
echo $user;
}
else
echo 'Not Inserted';
}
?>
Hope i dont piss anyone off with such a long message, I just really need help on this.
Thanks!
