Daniel,
Rather than sending them to a new page to validate the form and then
sending them back if a field is invalid, do the error checking from the
same script.
Here's an example, a bit simple but just to give you an idea.
For a better explanation, you should read this article which elaborates
on this method:
http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/form-pro-php4.php
<?php
if($HTTP_POST_VARS){
// check for required fields
if(!HTTP_POST_VARS['name'] || !HTTP_POST_VARS['email'])
$error_message = 'You did not provide all required fields'
}
// any other error checking you want to do
....
?>
<?php
// if error, print out error message
if($error_message){
echo $error_message;
}
?>
<FORM METHOD="post" ACTION="<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="name" SIZE="20" VALUE="<?php echo
$HTTP_POST_VARS['name'] ?>">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="email" SIZE="20" VALUE="<?php echo
$HTTP_POST_VARS['email'] ?>">
and so on....
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="process_form" VALUE="Submit">

Subject: [PHP] $_SESSION as $key=>$value
Is this valid to iterate over a form variables.?
foreach ($_SESSION as $key=>$value)
and another question, do I need this <form action="scripts/process.php"
method="post"> in my form?
Im really struggling with $_SESSION. Im trying to program smarter and
make friendlier applications.
Ive submitted several emails dealing with this function and I apologize
for beating a dead horse, so to speak.
I have a form with a few form fields. Im working on an error function
that will take the data that was entered and pass it back to the form so
that the user will not have to input the data again. If an error is
found I use the header function to go back to the form. Im having
trouble with passing back the data. Do I in my form setup a $_GET or
should I use the $_SESSION to call it. I am also going to setup a few
css styles that highlight which field was found in error.
Again, I apologize for my lack of vision and maybe a spark of light will
go off, and I will be able to make some connections to get this done.

Regardless of whether I use ignore(0) or ignore(1), the script keeps going
after the user has hit stop. The apache error-log is then full of:

OK, that's good to know too :-)

Fair enough - this isn't production as such - I thought it might be worth
asking. What are the plans, if any, regarding apache 2.0.x and php?
For my purposes, I would be perfectly happy if my php script would stop
running once the client has disconnected.

Yeah, that would do about the same.
The expected result is for the script to stop running once the client
disconnects.

Just a little nitpick here, but 4e4 is not hex but scientific notation
representing 40,000. 0x4e4 would be a hex value representing, ooooh, a
little over 1200 at a rough guess.
I'm pretty sure both of these have been suggested, but personally I'd go for
either a pattern match or something like:
if ((string)($value+0)===$value)
Cheers!

Why don't you write your own test function since it's
getting so hard to find one. All you have to do is check
if the string only has number characters.
I would say this is a simple task!
Good luck,
Rafael

The problem with is_numeric() is that something like
"4e4" comes up as
true, because it could be construed as a HEX value.

Well, the following values will all cause that test to succeed:
0
0.0
''
'0'
array()
FALSE
NULL
so take your pick!
Personally, I tend to use NULL in this situation, because it fails isset(),
is detectable with is_null(), and, crucially, doesn't generate a notice on
doing if($variable).
Cheers!

it's not good to make the 3rd party gateway so obvious. he's looking

i think there should be a way to do it. maybe use the fsock stuff to

Is it possible to change the Return-Path header in PHP on linux? I have
seen all the posts about setting it in the php.ini with the -f switch to
sendmail. But I need to set it based on the person logged into the
page? Right now the Return-Path is set to a default that gets sent to
me (the administrator).
I have a group of about 20 users who log into the webpage, and send
email messages. If any of the messages bounce, those users don't know
about it until I sift through the postmaster mailbox and let them know
(that is unless the remote mail server is nice and send the bounce to
the From: or Reply-To:). Changing the Return-Path would solve this for
everyone. Any thoughts ideas, or am i just out of luck?

My understanding of this (am still a newbie though) is that the
<?=$variable?> is a short tag that assignes the $variable directly to a
"print/echo" command. You can use the other way by just adding <?php print
$variable; ?>
Hope this helps.

This has been discussed more than once by the PHP developers, and the decision has
always been not to adopt it. I think you can safely file it in the "Won't Fix"
category (there may even be a Feature Request at bugs.php.net marked as such).

Hello,

I totally agree with your first sentence *grin*.
Anyways, I won`t be able to use your class because my
server is kind of "locked" in their network, meaning I
don`t have the possibility to connect outside, only to
their servers (NT servers). And as Exchange servers
don`t use SMTP (meaning the whole protocol is NOT
used, so your classes won`t help me), I`m not able to
send mails at all. Only like he offered me to put an
extra box in the network which will relay the mails
from my linux server.
That will do.
Does anyone know about the way exchange servers work,
mapi and mapisend? The only thing I found was how to
program that in VB (and being able to talk to Exchange
servers), but it seems like this is not possible for
my penguin :) (VB on Linux??? sounds stupid)
No, that will not work on Linux because you do not have COM object
support, which is a Windows thing.

just today I stumbled into the same problem. It is
true, I got this answer from an expert:
"Unfortunately this will not work. SMTP relaying
is
disabled on all the
Exchange connector servers and a standard Exchange
mailbox server does
not
support SMTP. The only way that you can send SMTP
email from within
our company is to use the Internal MailSweeper.
And
to allow this we need
the IP
Address of the box that will be sending the
messages
so that we can
include
it in the authenticated list. We have to have
things
set up this way
for
Security reasons.
One other thing I should have mentioned. Outlook
uses
mapi to send on
the
Exchange servers. So we can use the mapisend
command
but I do not know
if
your application would support this. I think that
this may also need a
valid Outlook profile to work."
I don`t understand that either, because I am
trying to
use my Linux server (inside my companys network)
to
deliver mails to the exchange server via sendmail.
If anyone knows more about this topic, let me
know.....sorry that this obviously does not belong
to
a php list, but I deleted the original email &
could
not find the email address of the author of this
topic
:(
I wonder about his expertise. Authentication was
meant for security reasons.
Anyway, you do no not need to relay in the company
SMTP server unless
outside access is blocked in some firewall.
If you are using Linux, you just need to use the
mail() function because
it just uses sendmail by default.
If you still have problems, just use the classes
that I mentioned
enabling direct delivery mode in the SMTP sending
attributes. That does
the same as sendmail but at least if it fails you
can enable debugging
to see what the SMTP protocol dialog reveals.

I do not see what he means by not speaking SMTP
correctly. Anyway, if it
receives e-mail that you get, it also can relay
messages that you send.
I think in the worst case you need to
authenticate.
In that case you may want to try this class for
composing and sending
messages. It comes with a sub class for sending
messages via SMTP that
supports authentication.

You also need this class for the actual message

Hi
Check out the following code:
<?php
$image_file = "images/test.gif";
$font_file = dirname(__FILE__) . "/" . "fonts/timesbd.ttf";
$str = "You must be kidding :)";
$red = 0;
$blue = 0;
$green = 0;
$img = imagecreatefromgif("images/test.gif");
$color = imagecolorallocate($img, $red, $blue, $green);
# use TTF
imagettftext($img, 20, -20, 20, 40, $color, $font_file, $str);
/*
int imagestring ( resource image, int font, int x, int y, string s, int col)
*/
# don't use ttf
# imagestring($img, 5, 0, 0, $str, $color);
header("Content-Type: image/gif");
imagegif($img);
imagedestroy($img);
?>
When i use imagettftext() i httpd child process always crashes with signal 11
and in 20% requests it doesn't serve the image.
If i use imagestring() everything works okay, with no crashes at all..
Any ideas?

Hi all,
Sending multiple emails using PHP - as BCC or multiple mail() commands -
takes quite long; usually over 50 seconds for 10 addresses.
While sending these messages the browser won't show anything else but a
blank page, which is not a very exciting internetexperience for people using
my mailing-application.
I've been using exactly the same code on some other boxes without any
extreme delays.
The box is running Sendmail 8.12.9, PHP 4.3.1 on FreeBSD 4.8.
Any help greatly appreciated!

Are you sending these in a loop?
Write out something as each mail is sent, the email address is useful, plus
an OK or FAIL depending on what mail() returned.
Also, don't enclose this in a table as on some browsers nothing will
display until the closing table tag is received.
You might also investigate flush() (I think) .

Hi List
I recently installed 4.3.1 and enabled the magic_quotes_gpc to deal with
quotes in mysql inserts.
However, I think I have run into a problem that might be related, and
was wondering if there is an easy way to fix it:
I have a script that gets user input from a drop-down, on the action
page I search a mysql table for the row matching the selection made
previously. What I do then is to extract the result of that "select *
from table where data = form_selection" and then to re-insert the data
into the table ; note, re-insert, NOT UPDATE ( the app cals for a new
row to be added with the updated data, so the "old" row stays intact and
a new row is added that contains some of the old row's data plus some
new stuff I add).
So, the new insert sql looks as per usual
insert into table (`var1`,`var2`,`var3`,`var4`,...) values
('$var1','$var2',....);
where $var1, $var2 etc is either "inherited" from the extract of the
first querie's result set, or overwritten with my newly generated
values. The problem now comes in with this:
If one or more of the extracted variables containes something like
" O'Healy " or something similar that causes trouble with the quotes in
the new INSERT sql, well, you see the problem...
And I don't want to have to go and addslashes to all my extracted
variables, because there really are a whole heap of them.
So, is there another php.ini setting that I'm missing to help me with
this, or maybe a function that will addslashes to all my extracted vars?
I'm lazy, shoot me!

Hi Awlad
Yes, I know addslashes(), but that's the point, I would rather NOT want
to go and have to use addslashes() to all my extracted vars as there are
almost a hundred vars, and I douldn't want to go and have to add
addslashes($var1), addlsashes($var2), ....., addslashes($var100) UNLESS
it is the unanimous feeling of the list that there is no other way (
BTW, the app worked fine on PHP 4.0.4, hence my suspicion that there
might be a php.ini setting I missed when upgrading to 4.3.1)

Just as a matter of interest, are there security/performance issues with
this setting as well as the magic_quotes_gpc or other oddities that it

Yes, there is a performance hit. And the oddity is (if set globaly in
php.ini) you have to stripslashes() everything you want to echo to the
browser. So I would recomend you to ini_set() magic_quotes_runtime on
right before this process and then turn it off.

It seems that some php versions have difficulties with the fgets() function.
On php 4.3.2 it works fine, but other versions report warnings.
fgets($f);
Warning: Wrong parameter count for fgets() in
/var/www/Xprotector/include/base.inc.php on line 70
If I change fgets to
fgets($f, 4096);
it woks.
Any idea why?
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
From the manual:
Note: The length parameter became optional in PHP 4.2.0, if omitted, it
would assume 1024 as the line length. As of PHP 4.3, omitting length
will keep reading from the stream until it reaches the end of the line.
If the majority of the lines in the file are all larger than 8KB, it is
more resource efficient for your script to specify the maximum line length.

Hello everybody.
I have the following class method:
function HTTPValidator($method)
{
$this->data = ${'_'.$method};
$this->rules = array();
$this->required = array();
}
data, rules and required are arrays. The parameter
$method can have the values: GET or POST. I'm trying
to store the superglobal array in the data class
property.
To get the superglobal array ($_GET or $_POST), I try
to build these strings '_'.$method. I'm sure this part
works, PHP builds the string _GET or _POST according
to the $method parameter.
I use ${'_'.$method} to get the contents of the
superglobal. But this piece of code doesn't work. It
seems like PHP doesn't build the $_GET or $_POST
string.
Funny thing, I tried the same code on another script
and worked. Here's that script:
<?php
echo '<pre>';
print_r($_POST);
echo '</pre><br><br>';
$method = 'POST';
$data = ${'_'.$method};
echo '<pre>';
print_r($data);
echo '</pre><br><br>';
?>
(I even tried to send the $method parameter as '_GET'
and '_POST', and didn't work either).
I'm very confused. Thanks for any help.

hi there , i am about to build a shopping cart which will interact with a
paypal payment system , the cart will use sessions to store the items and
basket information before checking out and posting to the paypal form , what
i'd like to know is would the cart require a login system to track users and
to prevent ppl from making dodgy orders , if not can a session easily be
hijacked at all ? better still is there anyone out there who has intergrated
their users with the paypal login, so say they login to your shopping cart
to start making payments they are alreayd logged into paypal aswell this
would be ideal :D

I want to do one of those redirect pages where a php script prints HTML
saying "sorry we're not here, we're redirecting you to the right location"
and then after about 2-3 seconds a new location header gets printed and you
are transported to the new location. I see this everywhere but don't know
how it's done.
I tried this by printing the "Location" header first and then the text and
it just
relocated me without seeing the text. I tried printing the text first and
then the "Location" header and php complains that my header was already sent
and I
can't modify it to relocate.
How do you do this?? Is there something in the header I have to specify to
wait before it relocates? Do I have to do it manually by printing the text..
tell the script to wait and then clear the header somehow and send a new one
(can that be done?) I looked at HTTP1.1 docs and I didn't really get
anywhere.
Any ideas?
Carl.

Subject: [PHP] Redirects in PHP
I want to do one of those redirect pages where a php script prints HTML
saying "sorry we're not here, we're redirecting you to the right location"
and then after about 2-3 seconds a new location header gets printed and you
are transported to the new location. I see this everywhere but don't know
how it's done.
I tried this by printing the "Location" header first and then the text and
it just
relocated me without seeing the text. I tried printing the text first and
then the "Location" header and php complains that my header was already sent
and I
can't modify it to relocate.
How do you do this?? Is there something in the header I have to specify to
wait before it relocates? Do I have to do it manually by printing the text..
tell the script to wait and then clear the header somehow and send a new one
(can that be done?) I looked at HTTP1.1 docs and I didn't really get
anywhere.
Any ideas?
Carl.

Build a JavaScript and have it execute as the document loads... i.e. in the
body tag with an onLoad event...
the header function in php will not do anything if you have sent output
already

I miss the response.redirect in Python and DTML which can be placed
anywhere as well.

Javascript.. bah humbug. :)
Carl, you can avoid these issues by using output buffering allowing you to
call header() whever you want in your script.
<? // example..
ob_start(); // buffer output
echo "this is output you'll never see";
header("Location: thankyou.html"); // header redirect
ob_end_flush(); // flush output
?>

This will not solve the OP's problem; the header will still be output
first, and the client will be immediately redirected. I am curious
though; why is everyone suggesting to use JavaScript when the following
in the <head> section of the HTML document will work just as well?
<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="3;URL=http://example.com/new-page.html"; />
Am I missing something?

But he doesn't get to see the printed info - so it's basically the same
difference. I think either JavaScipt is probably the solution
I have also found reference to the following:
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="8;URL=http://
www.example.com/somepage.html">
It is supposed to do what is wanted but it's not W3C standard.

Oh you're right I didn't read the original post. You can still use the OB
method and redirect to an HTML page containing the "sorry we're not here,
we're redirecting you to the right location" message and meta refresh
without goofing up the output in the original script. It's a straight
forward and clean transition.

It's like a meta tag...<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5;url=FILE.PHP">
JavaScript version:
<script language="javascript">
function deelay(secs)
{
setTimeout("goto_url()",secs*1000)
}
function goto_url()
{
location.href="FILE.PHP"
}
</script>
<body onload="deelay(2)">

Search engines frown on using meta refresh because of
abuse problems. Some engines won't index the page
period and all of them penalize you at the very least.
While it will work as you described, you're sacrificing
search engine positioning to use it. You need to weigh
the trade-offs

How many search engines do you know of that will parse and follow the
JavaScript location.href redirection suggested earlier?

You're absolutely right. Thus, the need for a server-side
redirect. You can use meta refresh as long as the time is
set to around 10 seconds without being penalized. I
guess you could include a message that you are going to
be transferred in 10 seconds, then provide a link for the
impatient types, like myself, to get there quicker.

echo ob_get_level(); returns 1
but the next line:
ob_end_clean(); returns
Notice: ob_end_clean() [ref.outcontrol]: failed to delete buffer default
output handler.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
