[PHP] Looking up, deleting and inserting array values
Hi,
I'm trying to do something that I know works when you build an array like a
map with elements and values. One of the problems with this is that I only
get out the values from the array from the last row. And the other problem
is it looks like I can't delete desired values within the array. Is anyone
able to tell me if it's really possible? And if it is, how?
A snip of my code follows bellow:
($$row[3] contains single values that apear in the rows and are decleared
higher up on the page)
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
// If var based named as value in $row[3]
if ($$row[3]) {
// Splits keys and values
foreach($$row[3] AS $key = $value) {
// If $value is the same as $row[2]
if ($value == $row[2]) {
// Sum old value within the array with the new value
$new_value = $value+$row[2];
// Delete the old value from the array
unset($$row[3][$key]);
// Insert the new value
array_push($$row[3], $new_value);
}
}
}
}
Thanks in advance // Jonas
(Yes, I try to read the manual - but it's not allways good enough for me)

[PHP] Is there an easier way of doing this?
morning all,
Is there an easier way of doing the following??
form1 submitting to form1.php
input type=checkbox name=1
input type=checkbox name=2
input type=submit
form1.php
?php
$link = mysql_connect('host', 'user', 'pass') or die (Connection
failed: . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('yourdbname', $link) or die (selection failed: .
mysql_error());
if(isset($_POST[1])) {
mysql_query(INSERT INTO menu (label) VALUES ('item 1 selected'));
}
else {
mysql_query(INSERT INTO menu (label) VALUES ('item 1 not selected'));
}
if(isset($_POST[2])) {
mysql_query(INSERT INTO menu (label) VALUES ('item 2 selected'));
}
else {
mysql_query(INSERT INTO menu (label) VALUES ('item 2 not selected'));
}
mysql_close($link);
?
So my question is, if I have a form with 20 + items which can be
checkboxes, when submitted do I need to go through each one and add it
to the datasbase or maybe some kind of loop?.
Thank you
Chris

Yes, this is called HTML. Output in a pre tag to get it formatted.
Actually If I run my test.cgi file I get well formatted one I am
attaching the screenshot also If you can see from the output
HTTP_USERNAME
nick=amit,Master=0,acct_no_hash=1B2M2Y8AsgTpgAmY7PhCfg==,EMAIL=[EMAIL PROTECTED]
which is missing from test.php script output
I see no screenshot (which is a good thing, so please *don't* repost
with the screenshot). What type of authentication is HTTP_USERNAME
supposed to be coming from?

Thats a very poor method of storing values in SQL. I believe MySQL now
has a boolean datatype (at long last, postgre has had it for ages) and
it does have integers. Why not a combination of a boolean and an
integer, and no storage of text. It makes a hell of alot more sense.
So my question is, if I have a form with 20 + items which can be
checkboxes, when submitted do I need to go through each one and add it
to the datasbase or maybe some kind of loop?.
http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_QuickForm/ may be of use. You could use
a combination of exportValues() and foreach. Its added validation makes
it even nicer. Also, I do believe your reference to $_POST is incorrect.
What if the variable does not exist? You get an error, thats what.
array_key_exists('1',$_POST) should be used.

Re: [PHP] Is there an easier way of doing this?
definitely a loop will do the job.
on a form submission, you can get all the submitted fields/ values in
$_POST or $_GET array.
just, try 'print_r($_POST)', on top of your receiving script. you will
realise the scene behind. :)
then, get the size of the $_POST array and loop through the array
elements. a common data base function to insert the data will ease
your life further.

why not make the checkbox an array checkbox and just loop through the values that come through the POST and insert those into the DB. I would definitely recommend using integer rather than what you
have above for the DB value.

Hi Chris
While this works, it only posts the checkboxes that have been selected.
How would I get a list of ones not checked?
Always reply to the list as well.
Checkboxes aren't submitted if they are not checked. It's not a PHP
thing that does this.
That's why you have to check it this way.
. if it's in the post array, it was checked.
if (isset($_POST['blah'][$p])) {
.
}
. if it's not in the post array, it was not checked.
if (!isset($_POST['blah'][$p])) {
.
}
notice the isset and !isset (not isset).

[PHP] Cannot suppress fsockopen errors
Hi,
Im having a hard time surpressing fsckopen() errors. I've looked at the
manual and searched around, but what i am doing /appears/ to be correct,
yet im still geting warnings...
here's the code:
// open a socket to the server
if($handle = @fsockopen($bits['host'], 80, $errno, $errstr, 10) or die(die)) {
return true;
}
and here are the warnings:
warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name
or service not known in
/var/www/localhost/vhosts/payment.communicontent.com/modules/partners/inc/includes/validateBlog.inc

warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to www.ivana.dk:80 in

I've even tried looking though php.ini for any clues and i dont see
anything useful. Does anyone have an idea of what im missing here?
Many thanks!

Perhaps this is all a result of PHP being a procedural language first, and an OOP language second? Indeed, even if our PHP applications are fully abstracted into objects, they still begin their lives in a procedural way... [thinking_aloud] I have little experience with pure OOP, short of a quick dive into Java, but I do recall that any J2EE web application that runs does so as an instance of a class (which is a child of some base listener class that handles web requests). So your initial scope sort of is at a local object level. So then it would make perfect sense as a programmer to want the ability to call an object constant or static property without having to say hey, look for in the same place that I am right now. Because there's nowhere else you'd be, anyway. But with PHP, every script starts out procedurally, and hence at the global level. Then we instantiate a class, step into that object, and do our thing. But still, we _started_ outside, and our scope ladder does too. [/thinking_aloud] Yes? No?

[PHP] PHP suddenly stops working on FreeBSD
I restarted Apache this morning in order to allow some new virtual hosts to be recognised, and now I've got a problem whereby all of my PHP scripts are being served up as source code instead of being executed by the web server.

Be sure the LoadModule line above is then uncommented and try a restart again. Cheers, I checked make config (highly useful command, didn't know you could do that) and for some reason the APACHE option wasn't checked - I have absolutely no idea why because it's always worked in the past, perhaps it's disabled by default now or something.

Why are you passing it to the php binary? Pass it directly to your
script (make sure it's executable). For shits and giggles, do a 'which
php' at the command line to make sure the binary is in /usr/bin.

And the script it calls (email.php) the code is:

[PHP] Re: Browser displays blank page, while request still being handled
Yet another update. Strange thing happened. I fixed the problem... It's not a clean solution, it's not the right solution, but for now, it'll (have to) do :-) I changed my little test-script to include directives like max_input_time, set_time_limit(0) etc. Than I thought, why not try to generate some output when copying files!??! So I did... and you know what, all of a sudden I'm seeing my response page every single time I call my script :-D So our quick-n-dirty-but-we-know-its-wrong-solution is gonna be to have the script generate some output (a single space) for each file it has copied (i.e. print( )). After testing it with the problem-app, we feel confident this is a viable, temporary, solution. At least untill we complete our PHP5 rewrite of the Photofresher :-) I would like to thank all of you for your time, patience and advice.

Here is how I have everything setup.
I have my aliases file set up with the line: ade: |/usr/bin/php,
|/wwwroot/www.domain.com/ade/email.php
Why are you passing it to the php binary? Pass it directly to your
script (make sure it's executable). For shits and giggles, do a 'which
php' at the command line to make sure the binary is in /usr/bin.
(The path to my PHP is correct)
And the script it calls (email.php) the code is:
#!/usr/bin/php
?php
$fd = fopen(php://stdin, r);
There's also an easier way to do this. Check the manual:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php

Try $_GET['var'].
echo( Welcome to our Web site, {$_GET['var']}! );
Two things you should note:
- using $var would be using register_globals which is depricated.
(http://us2.php.net/register_globals)
- echoing out get variables can lead to a XSS attack. (read
http://ha.ckers.org/xss.html)
As many like to point out, please read http://phpsec.org/ for some

related code for simplicity.

Re: [PHP] PHP URL query
register_globals is disabled on your system, which is a good thing. So you
have to reference all values sent via a form using GET with the $_GET
superglobal array as follows:
Welcome to our web site, {$_GET[var]}
or
'Welcome to our web site, ' . $_GET['var']
etc etc

Didn't take long to learn that snipplet that I found on Google was just screaming to include remote code. ;) How was I to know when I was just playing around for the first time making a dynamic site that passing ?page=x could allow people to run PHP code on my site through an include. Nowhere in the tutorial did it mention anything about remote including. My guess is that the author wasn't aware of it either since it was such a small easy thing. After I realized what was going on I made it a point to read as much as I could understand into code security. The hardest part for me is trying to get out of the mindset of making the script work, but rather into the mindset of if someone were trying to exploit my script, what can they possibly do? Once I did that I was able to see that not forcing ?id=x to use $id = (int)$_GET['id'] could get me into trouble if I wasn't fortunate enough to have mod_security enabled on our server. I'm sure this is very obvious to most of you and that is great.

$menu = $_POST['menu'];

Re: [PHP] Re: Upload File
There are names for people who use the blob field of a MySQL db to store images. Moron, and Idiot are just two examples, but if other circumstances exist, you can say newbie as well. As a newbie I thought myself that storing images in a DB would be a nice clean solution. Voices of experience said otherwise. Over the years as I grew more experienced I began to understand myself, why putting images into a MySQL Db is a Bad Thing[tm]. Use blobs to store small amounts of transient data. Use the FS to store something as large and semi-static as images. Sorry if this seems rough / harsh, but if it causes a person to think twice before using MySQL as a file storage solution, then it's justified. There are a few less polite names for people who develop software like this that I have to maintain later. Are you going to write queries that involve the data *IN* the file as part of the search, sort, or filtering? PHP has the facilities built-in to perform this search/sort/filter - while their use isn't always the cleanest solution, anything is better than putting files in a db. If you can't find the features you require, then feel free to use external tools - anything to avoid db file storage.

to 'escapeshellcmd' the command and run it in system, then I got
paste: invalid option -- f

temporary named pipes so I don't have to worry about the temporary files
generated. I've been googling around without much help. Could anyone
plz give me some hint? Thanks a lot

(I guess only someone like Rasmus could say whether this was even an acceptable proposition) 2. promote 'hacking ethos' in general - which starts with RTFM but goes further in that 'newbies' should be encouraged to broaden their understanding of a problem area beyond 'getting it to work' 3. dish out more praise to those 'newbies' that do go the extra mile to enrich their own skills beyond what is strictly necessary to get their job done. encourage research and problem solving. 4. conversely I do believe we can [keep] making it clear that certain attitudes don't cut it - I'm referring to the 'please do my job for me crowd' - (in the end you can't save the all ;-) - maybe we can 'nominate' certain experienced people to reply to messages which are blatantly bad questions (and/or show blatant signs of not being interested in the 'why's) encouraging people not to answer until the OP until he/she shows signs of wanting to expand their own understanding and researching their own problems. for instance the only reason I hardly ever have reason to ask a question on the list is because the information/answers I'm looking for have 99% of the time already been documented in articles/tutorials/etc on web - (i.e. I'm always saying 'how the does that work' and almost always someone 'out there' has already written something that explains it! it's a matter of finding it and taking the time to read/re-read) [quite probably point 4 does not come accross the way I meant - in which please ignore :-)] in short I stand by you notion and will try to do my part.

Remember mod_php5 has gone from ports so lang/php5 then make config and select build apache option. I've no idea whether it does that with PHP5, but I'm not ready to upgrade to that version yet (perhaps over the summer when I have a bit more spare time I'll attempt it).

[PHP] php parsing and db content
Greetings All, I have the following problem. I load certain links and breadcrumbs from the database into a external .php file which I include on various pages within the site. Due to this I have defined a constant '_root' and precede all links with this to ensure that the links will work no matter from where inside the site structure they are called. My problem is this, when I load these links from the database into the external .php file and the load the page that includes this, the line ?php echo _root ? is not parsed and shows up in the links, for example: /our_work/?php echo _root ?/our_work/index.php when it should be /site_root/our_work/index.php How can I ensure that these calls to ?php echo _root ? are parsed before sent to the browser? Thanks! -- Kind Regards Schalk Neethling Web Developer.Designer.Programmer.President Volume4.Business.Solution.Developers -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

That has already attempted to upload the file to the server.. which is
what the OP didn't want.
Would be handy to be able to do this but *shrug*..
