Does anyone know of a good tutorial for using ereg and eregi to validate
standard fields for SQL input (i'm using PearDB). Typically the type of
validation that I think I need would be, firstly to detect invalid
characters, or special characters, or things that can screw up the SQL
Query. Others would be the alpha only, string lengths, email address, dates
and times, phone numbers.
These are standard items in a lot of systems...surely there's a tutorial out
there somewhere, or a sample script or something. I've only just discovered
regex, so its all a bit hmmmmmmmm at the moment.
Any links for tutorials or sample scripts would be much appreciated.
Thanks

How are you executing top? Sounds like you need to use the -d option for
top. Example:
$exec - exec("top -d1");
This way, top won't, run and run and run, and run, and run, etc, etc, etc.
Try that

Try inserting a "\n" at the end of each string you write. This is a new-

I agree about going to technical colleges and other areas. In fact, I made
that very point. There is no reason that these kinds of programs even NEED
to be four year degrees.
I don't want to get into a debate about certifications. As one who hires
programmers, I can say this for myself and many others: certification mreans
squat to myself and to most people I know. They have become as devalued as
Argentinian currency :)
On the other hand, the general truth is that certification WILL open doors
in some places, particularly those that are technologically clueless in the
first place. They may or may not be jobs worth having, it may or may not
happen for the job you are pursuing now or the job you might pursue in the
future.
My real point in all of this is that establishing a LAMP certification, for
instance, or a PHP certification, is no panacea and is no guarantee of
opening any doors, not to mention the possibility of such certifications
becoming a joke as MCSE and other Microsoft Certs (for instance, and a cert
I can speak of with firsthand experience :) have become in many circles and
actually having as much negative impact as positive.

Hi all,
I would like to ask my experienced friends here if its possible to port a
script made for linux to run in windows IIS. I've been trying to make linux
scripts run on my server and some of them do and some don't. I also notice
that the problem relies how Linux and Windows refer to firectories.
Linux Ex.
$base_dir = "/home/somescript/"
Windows Ex.
$base_dir = "C:\home\somescript"
Now. My question is... Is there any way to use script made for Linux in
Windows? If YES what have to be done in order to make it to work?
Thank you,
Andre

Well, that depends on the script greatly. Both Win32 and Linux have
difference sets of functions, and features. Issues such as relative
path's are easy enough to solve, however, it would greatly depend on
what other features the piece of code use.
In most cases, it is possible to port a script from Win32 to
Linux, and vice-versa, with a few hours of hair-pulling and a little
bit of luck... But then again, this question depends on the
application.

I'm currently working with a few developers to redesign my company's
website using PHP. I am developing on a Linux platform while some of the
other developers are using Windows. We are using CVS to merge our
individual changes into one main source tree.
So far this has been working really well. I've found that it's much easier
to develop on Linux first and then tweak any oddities on the Windows
side. For example, the following is only valid on Windows:
$file = "some\\relative\\path\\filename.ext";
But the following is valid on either platform:
$file = "some/relative/path/filename.ext";
Another example is case sensitivity. To Windows, "SomePath/filename.ext"
is the same as "somepath/filename.ext" but not on Linux. Since Linux is
the more picky of the two (for good reason) then it's easier to make sure
the case is correct on the Linux side. Just be careful and don't create
"Filename.ext" and "filename.ext" as two different files on the Linux side,
because Windows obviously won't be able to handle that.
I would say for 95% of basic scripts, you are not going to have any
troubles. You could run into problems would be scripts that work with the
filesystem (for example, umask() doesn't work on Windows). COM components
can only be used on Windows, so avoid them if your goal is platform
independence. Most DB functions behave exactly the same way, with minor
differences (for example, mssql_next_result() does not work if you are
using Linux/FreeTDS but it does on Windows)....etc. I've found that the
mail() function works exactly the same on either platform assuming you have
both servers configured properly.
My best advice is to develop on Linux first, periodically testing your
scripts on Windows and tweaking the oddities. It's not too tricky. Let me
know if you have questions...

From all practical accounts the ISAPI is still not stable under
Windows. The claim is that PHP itself is stable, but the majority of
the DLL files which provide the additional functionality (IMAP, GD, etc)
are NOT stable (threadsafety I think is the issue) so unless you're
doing something extremely basic ISAPI may not be the answer.
Only you can tell for certain - set it up on your system and if it
works, great. If it starts to crash, don't waste hours or days or weeks
trying to fix it - it's not your problem. Just go back to CGI. If
you're an experienced C coder under Windows, jump in and try to help
debug and patch it, otherwise just stick with CGI.

If I have n variables:
$nr1 = "some text";
$nr2 = "some other text"
$nr3....
....
and I want to print the text "randomly" (like if I enter the page.. it displays
$nr1... next time it displays $nr 5.. etc)
how can I achieve it ?

Try this:
Store variables in an array, say $msg_array. (For those of Hungarian preference,
$arrMessages.)
$index = rand (0, $n)
echo $msg_array[ $index ]
Now this will require a bit of messing about, seeding the randomizer, etc., but you
get the idea.

Or, if you've already set your massive list of variables...:
$varname = "nr".rand(0, $n);
print ${$varname};

Pop them all into an array and use array_rand()

Hehe, I didn't think of that. Actually I didn't mean push /or/ pop in

Add the path to libphp4.so to the file /etc/ld.conf.so
and run ldconfig
or
copy libphp4.so to the libexec directory found beneath the main apach directory.
It's most likely in the libs directory of your php source directory.
The second way is probably the best.

I had this problem on RedHat 7.2. Turns out I needed zlib support
(libz.so). Not sure how to do it on Slackware, but on RedHat 7.2 you need
two RPMs, both zlib-1.1.3-24 and zlib-devel-1.1.3-24. After I installed
these RPMs I had to do a make clean, rm config.cache, and then configure
again adding "--with-zlib" to the configure command.
(I saw some saying that you needed to add "-ld" to the LTLIBRARY_LDFLAGS
line in the top level Makefile but this did not work for me.)
To be honest, I have no idea why any of this was needed, I got all this
info from various sources on Google Groups. But it worked for me. Maybe
this can point you in the right direction...

Check and see which directory libmysqlclient.so is in, and make sure that
directory is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig. Then try to
start the server.

Thanks for your replys.
What I see in /usr/local/mysql/lib is:
libmysqlclient.a
I'm wondering if the MySQL binaaries use static libs?
Thanks,

Try it t wo ways ...
1. w/o the with-mysql, run a script containing phpinfo() and see what it returns.
MySQL support is compiled in by default to a default location.
2. Check that the with-mysql parameter is correct. On one system I had a path that was
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql
and yes, that fina lmysql was a directory. It caused so me problems.
It would help if the error messages were clearer, but they're still better than Winows
GPF's.

Thanks for your reply Paul.
The script is getting subscriber details from a database and then
firing our personalised emails in HTML and text format. The while
statement loops through the query results and fires out the emails
using the mail() command.
It works well so far and indeed does finish the loop OK - but as
mentioned the script is still running 13 hours later. I don't get it.
Any ideas? Is it possible to kill a script via PHP code?
Matthew
PS Here is the script again
<?
ignore_user_abort(true);
set_time_limit(1800);
while:
personalise the message;
mail();
set_time_limit(1800);
endwhile;
?>

what are you doing a while on
if while never ends and you reset the time out each loop and use
ignore_user_abort(true), it will still be going 13 hours latter.
maybe if you send the full code so we can look at it.

I suspect you mean the mysql field name is 'iName', not '$iname' ($iName
being the PHP variable name).
try
select distinct(iName) from tablename
and loop through those result sets.

Almost right. DISTINCT is not a SQL function:
select distinct iName from tablename
would be the correct syntax.

Can someone tell me why this is not working right? Two pages are
basically the same, passing an accumulating value back and forth.
There is no other session being created. The first time it increments
and passes to the second page, and is picked up. It puts a 1 in the
session file. After that, it seems to try, as in editor wanting to
reload, but the contents don't increase beyond 1.
I have 4.1, register globals off, on Windows 98.

No need for this, in fact this is what is preventing it from working! Once
you've used session_register('var'), $var is available for use.

You're inc'ing $page_views twice, this is what makes you *think* the session
is working when in fact it isn't!

Hi there!
Sorry for posting this again, but I got no
answers...
Does anybody know a replacement for the
built-in getenv()-function, since according
to the manual it's not supported, when
running as an ISAPI-module under Internet
Information Server 5.0 on Windows 2k
Professional.
I've created a small counter that looks up the
user's IP in a database in order to prevent
duplicate hits when user is reloding the page
and to track how many users are "currently
online".
Suggestions welcome....
BTW, this is the code I'm using now
(temporarily running the CGI version):
=== CUT HERE ===
// ...
// Get user's IP and user agent (-->>> problem arises here <<<--)
$ip = ip2long(($tmp = getenv("HTTP_X_FORWARD_FOR")) ? $tmp :
getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"));
// -->>> and here <<<--
$useragent = getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
// Check if visit already counted
$id = 0;
$counted = false;
$r = mysql_query("SELECT visitor.id, visitor.ip, visitor.useragent,
visits.timestamp FROM visitor, visits WHERE visitor.id = visits.visitor_id
ORDER BY visitor.id DESC");
// ...
=== CUT HERE ===

You could try contacting your server admin and seeing if he / she will
increase the limit...
That would be where I would start.
If that doesn't work, my hosting fees are quite reasonable ahah

hey...
i was wondering, is there any way to check wether the replacing of a
variable failed or no? example :
{one}
$t->set_var("one", "1");
I want to know wether one was replaced by 1.. or wether the term "one"
exists at all in the template.. any ideas on how to find this out?

Well, when giving the flexibility to the user to change the look of a
program, it is impossible to track wether the user leaves your program copy
right code in the template... so, if the {copyright} variable doesnt exist,
just display the copy right info.. if {copyright} exists, replace it...
simple...

Use str_replace(). Only use preg() and friends *IF* you need to search for
regular expressions.
$q = str_replace(array('!', '@', '#'), '', $q);
Also, please do not cross-post.

Hi all,
I'm trying to add MySQL to my RaQ4. It came
by default with PHP4 but no MySQL.
I've installed all 4 RPMs (including the developer part and
everything) of the latest version, and MySQL is working fine.
I've got DbTools (fantastic!) to interact with it, no probs.
However, I have reason to believe that PHP has been compiled
without MySQL support. Namely 'cause phpMyAdmin doesn't work and
I'm clutching at the only thing on the install list that I didn't
do myself (ie php4 was pre-installed and is built into the GUI,
unlike my RaQ3 where I added it in).
When I first started tinkering around with adding PHP4 to my
other RaQ3, I remember using tarballs with switches to ensure
MySQL support was installed.
So, my question is, how can I tell if PHP has been compiled with
MySQL support or not, and if not, how can I add it in without
breaking whatever's already there!! I presume PHP will be an RPM
(or even a .PKG?), so can I specify these options within RPM installation?
Many thanks for any help.
Regards,
Greg Conway.

That'll give you the PHP internal information and you can see pretty
quickly what's 'in' and what's 'not in'.

I want to make something like when you are attaching something to an
email in hotmail. I want to make something that searches your own
computer for files on your harddisk that you want to upload to the
server.
But I don't know if this is possible. If this is possible.Can somebody
tell me which function I should use? Or if someone have an example...

If this file has a .php extension remote users will not have access to the
variables because the file is parsed by php and they never see the actual
file contents when requesting the document via the web. If you are
concerned with users on localhost having access to the file, simply give it
the correct permissions so that no one else has read access.
If you are concerned about web users having access, if, for example, the php
parser crashed and apache tried to pass the file through without parsing,
you can put the default server, user and pass variables in the php.ini file
which is not in the document root for apache. Of course, this only works if
all of your scripts use the same server, user and password.

Careful there.
'$hostname', '$user', '$password', and '$dbname' aren't interpolated.
They're literally taken as the string $hostname, etc.
Leave off the 's or surround the variables in double quotes. But you
know that. ;-D

If you know you are running on an apache server, you could try using a
simple .htaccess file in a (say) etc directory which contains any or all
files you wish to secure.
ie:
/index.php
/etc/config.php
/etc/.htaccess
--index.php--------
<?php
include("etc/config.php");
...
?>
--etc/config.php--------
$config['db_host']="sql";
$config['db_name']="root";
$config['db_pass']="hooray";
?>
--etc/.htaccess--------
deny from all
And that's it!

It seems that you are running the script on a windows machine... Yet, I
think that your php.ini must be trying to store session files in /tmp
(which does not exist on windows). Perhaps if you change the session path
in the php.ini file it will fix the problem...

Page 1 is a list of people's names (queried by State).
Page 2 is each person's profile.
When I hit the back button on Page 2 it tells me it has to requery the
List on Page 1 (apparently not stored in the client's browser cache).
Is there anyway to make it use the cached copy instead of requeurying
the database? I know using Active Server Pages you could do this.

For a start, please don't cross-post.
Secondly, people don't see these files because the PHP engine parses them.
However, you could remove each of the parameters to an include file outside
the web tree and have PHP read it.
Set the include_path in php.ini
Thus in a file named parameters.inc you can have these lines:
$hostname = "12.34.56.78";
$user = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "database";
and change your connection string as follows:
include 'params.inc';
//maybe some other stuff her
$conn = mysql_connect( '$hostname', '$user', '$password');
mysql_select_db('$dbname',$conn) or die( mysql_errno()." :
".mysql_error());
There has been a lot of discussion on this topic, even within the past ten
days, so a search of the archives will give you the full discussion.

The actual content of the .php files won't be seen from the net since it is
server side scripting language.. But if you are still concerned you can put
database connection info into another file (preferably .php file) and place
it somewhere outside your web directory and access it thru require() or
include() functions inside your actual web page.
But if your concern is for local users' access to those file , just set
your file/directory permissions accordingly.

No so easy. The server itself must have read access. If other users on
the local host can install scripts that the server executes, any of those
scripts can read the text of your scripts.
What then? You're hosed.

Hi everyone !
I try to install PHP in the following environment.
O/S : solaris 2.7
PHP version : 4.0.6
Web Server : Nestscape Enterprise 3.6
But, I have some problems in installing PHP4.
I referenced the following document fully.
http://benoit.noss.free.fr/php/install-php4.html
I had no problems until "configure", "make" and "make install" the
PHP4.
But, When I restarted the web server after I configured the
file,"obj,conf",
the following error message occurred.
ERROR : pclose() failed.(2 : Unknown early startup error)
I added followig 2-lines to the "obj.conf" files.
Init fn="load-modules"
funcs="php4_init,php4_close,php4_execute,php4_auth_trans"
shlib="/usr/local/netscape/server4/bin/libphp4.so"
Init fn="php4_init" errorString="Failed to initialize PHP!"
If I remove the second line('Init fn="php4_init" errorString="Failed
to initialize PHP!"'), there is no error message but PHP is don't work.
What is the problem? I cannot solve this problem.
Please help me.

*NB* if user didn't connect through proxy (or NAT) then
$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] would be empty and Actual ip# would be

I've got a live script which occasional has to retrieve a file via ftp,
download to the server, post-process it then display it.
I use caching to check to see if I've already got the file, but if I don't I
have to process the ftp_get operation which occasionally times out.
So, is it possible to trap the time limit exceeded error and return a fail
code?
For example:
function GetFileViaFTP( $filename )
{
if (file_exists("cache/" . $filename))
{
return true;
}
$ftp = ftp_connect("some host");
ftp_login($ftp, "some username", "some password");
ftp_chdir($ftp, "some path");
if (ftp_get($ftp, "cache/" . $filename, $filename, FTP_BINARY)) // This
will sometimes fail
{
ftp_quit($ftp);
return true;
}
ftp_quit($ftp);
return false;
}
function GetFile( $filename )
{
if (file_exists("cache/" . $filename) || GetFileViaFTP($cache))
{
return file("cache/" . $filename);
}
return "Sorry, the file {$filename} could not be located";
}
