[PHP] mail() w/ mailing lists

[_lallous]

Hello,

Is is advisable that I mail lots of users from a database via one call to
mail() ?

Or else, how do you think I should split the list and send my mails?

Is there is a way to tell if the mail was returned because the email address
was invalid?


Thanks.

[PHP] Re: Stripping IMG tags

[_lallous]

$string = preg_replace('/]*>/si', '', $string);

"Richard S. Crawford" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
All I need to do is strip out IMG tags from strings; I don't want to strip
out all of the HTML, just the IMG tags, so the strip_tags() function won't
be adequate.

I've tried

 eregi_replace("","",$string);

but that doesn't seem to do any good (though the regexp works fine in Perl).

Any thoughts?

[PHP] Login verification

[Ashley M. Kirchner]

I want to make a login page in PHP, which will check the
user/password against the system's user/password file (in my case,
/etc/passwd and /etc/shadow.)  With the machine running PAM, how can I
have PHP do this?

Keep in mind I don't need to modify anything, just verify the
login.  Once verified, the script either continues on to doing other
things, or it bombs with a bad login page.

RE: [PHP] Resetting ID in mySQL DB

[Jack Dempsey]

say you have 100 records.
you delete number 36.
your db will then be 
...
34
35
37
38
...
correct?
after a delete, you could then say:
update table set id_num=id_num-1 where id > 36
and this would update all relevant records

Subject: [PHP] Resetting ID in mySQL DB


Hi,

I'm facing a problem. I made a simple DB with simple
adding records in DB operation. I've even put up a
JavaScript validation of the Form from where you add
info. And yet, in the display table, there are many
many blank fields. I don't know how they are
generated. 

The Adding of info form is at :
http://www.mjimm.com/index.php3?page=fanlist_add.php3

The display of records is at :
http://www.mjimm.com/fanlist_view.php3

Now the Display table also Displays the ID of the
Record. If i go in my mySQL Admnin, and delete the
rows with blank or duplicate records.. the ID also is
deleted but then is alway missing from the list. That
is, if i delete Row with ID 78, the next record feeded
will start from 79 and not 78. So there's gonne be
missing ID's from Records. Which i don't want. But
which has already happened. How can i correct it?? 
I want to reset the entire IDs to reflect the true
Number of records after i delete the Empty/Blank Rows
& Duplicate Record Rows!! How can i do that! Please
help!

Hmm, think I spoke too soon. It appears that you can concatenate several 
files into one gzipped file - have a look at man gzip. Tarring and 
zipping is a common way of doing this, however. (Not tarring and 
feathering, usually reserved for those who give wrong advice...)

Gzip only compresses single files?

So what if I want to compress a directory and have it download when a page is

I thought gzip would allow this. To compress a specified directory
when page.php is accessed. This is confusing. I tried the zend.com articles,

Presumably you mean tar and gzip, because gzip only compresses single 
files; in which case the answer is a qualified 'yes' - qualified because 
earlier versions of Winzip (and no, I don't remember when it changed) 
don't do compressed tar files.

I believe this info is also on the Winzip site.

It may, it may not. It works like user/group permission as you 
know. I don't know what you want to protect :)

Do you mean a script with "opendir()" shouldn't allow openning any 
directory under "open_basedir" if UID does not match?

I think it should be allowed. It's perfectly valid to me.

What if directory is owned by other user, but there is files owned 
by the user. Would you like to disallow to list directory? I guess 
not.

You can protect file basis, why do you need other protection for 
directories under open_basedir? Do you have good reason for this?

[PHP] Question about using system call/gzip

[Joelmon2001]

Hello. I just want to confirm that if I use a system call to 
execute gzip, so I can zip a directory, the file can be
decompressed by windows users

for example, if I visit
bleh.php and it compresses a directory /directory
will that file that it creates, which I download, be 
able to be unpacked using a 'winzip' for example on a windows machine?

Please insert "Yes" :)

Thanks

once you have read in the file and parsed it up, all you need to do then is
to find the correct "string" to execute and call it using :

eval($string);

[PHP] Save to Desktop

[Sharat Hegde]

Hello,

I need to capture the contents of a Form into a text file format and
automatically allow the user to Save the file to his desktop.

Here is what I am intending to do:
* Capture the form contents and save to a temporary file. This works fine.
* Provide some method of the user automatically downloading this. How do I
get this download to happen?

I want the screen which says "Open File or Save" to come up and then the
user can basically save to his desktop.

Can anyone help and suggest how do get the Form contents saved to the
Desktop?

Thanks for your help.
With Regards,
Sharat

That's probably not exactly the case; there would presumably be no reason

Out of curiosity, why do you not want to make multiple accesses to the 
DB? It would seem to be the easiest, and probably best way of dealing 
with the problem.

[PHP] possible safe mode bug with opendir() ?

[operator]

When in "safe mode" shouldn't PHP check to see if the directory that is
about to be opened with a opendir() function has the same UID as the PHP
script itself, and fail if the UIDs do not match?

Because in PHP 4.0.6 with safe_mode "on", a PHP script owned by "fred" can
open any directory owned by any other UID, so long as the directory is
under the "open_basedir".  This does not seem right to me, as it allows a
user in safe_mode to browse all the files on the entire webserver, looking
for things he might be able to peek at with a web browser.

Please advise whether this should be a bug report.

[PHP] PHP] Re: UPLOADING BLUES: Empty form variables when uploading

[Sandra Rascheli]

Hi Steven,

Thanks a lot for answering. Have you uploaded files successfully with the
GET method? I was wondering if the problem may be because I submit the form
to itself and not to another PHP page. All the examples I see, the form gets
submitted to a different php page.

The strange thing in my case is that the problem is erratic, it happens to a
reduced number of users on my website but most of them are able to upload
files succcessfully. But I have asked the users who have had the problems to
see what browsers, versions they're using, but I have not been able to find
a connection regarding the problem.

I am going crazy with this, since I am not able to reproduce the error
myself so I cannot make any tests whatsoever. In my computer it works fine,
I just wished it worked in all the others!!!

If you find any information regarding the problem please let me know. I will
do the same.

Do you think may be I should try the GET method instead of the POST method?

Thanks again, Sandra

Hi,

I'm willing to be that you have PHP installed as a module in apache whereas 
your hosting company is using the CGI version for some reason.

You will need to install the CGI version of PHP and tell the system to treat 
your scripts as a CGI instead of as a PHP module script.

[Steven Sullivan]

Sandra,

I've been trying to get a file upload form to work, but am not having any
success. So, I dropped the file part from the form, leaving just text input,
and have discovered that when I use the POST method, my variables may or may
not be available on the receiving page. GET works fine. I've tried using
HTTP_POST_VARS and ..._RAW_..., but both are empty. The variables simply do
not come through every time. I am running the latest version of Apache
(1.3.x, not 2.x) and PHP 4.0.6. I've been unable to find any information on
this problem.

Let's start with "perceptions" because there's a couple here that have the potential 
to hold you on the
side-benches whilst everyone else has a date and has made it to the dance floor...

The manual (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php) says, "strtotime --  
Parse about any english
[sic] textual datetime description into a UNIX timestamp". The key word is "any" and 
the fact that it is not
"all".

> //$today is CLEARLY between the two dates I'm testing with but "no" is
> always returned.

Er, no - it is not "clear"! A quick geography/horology lesson: the rest of the world 
either do not use the same
date system or do not express the Gregorian calendar the way Americans do. Today no 
one has a problem with a
date written as 11/11/2001, but when 10/11/2001 is written down, does it mean 
yesterday (10-Nov-2001) or one
month back (11-Oct-2001)? In America, the two formats are known as "American" 
(MM/DD/CCYY) and "European"
(DD/MM/CCYY) format.

Moving to the format used in the code above (2001). A format of this nature is 
widely used because it
facilitates sorting/comparisons - ah but watch those perceptions, if you were 
comparing/sorting/performing
arithmetic on two dates, one in Oct and one in Nov, then the convention will have to 
be CCYYMMDD = century,
year, month, then day! BTW you will see the logical flow of this ever decreasing 
period/increasing precision,
and how it can be kept going into CCYYMMDDHHMMSS and thereafter depending upon your 
needs, time base/available
utility functions, etc!

The function is called 'string to time'. In other words, a series of alphanumeric 
characters are passed, and a
date-time is returned (in the form of a UNIX timestamp). Given that there are many 
perceptions involved in
interpreting what the incoming string of digits means, some dates cannot be 
unambiguously expressed/resolved (eg
yesterday's date).

It's always a good idea to add some 'debug echoes' to new code, just to be sure that 
your perceptions agree with
the computer's implacable logic - I added to your code:

echo "Todaydate=$todaydate~";
echo "Today=$today~ Startcheck=$startcheck~ DoB=$dob~";
echo "".
 "Today=".date("Y-M-d",$today).
 "~ Startcheck=".date("Y-M-d",$startcheck).
 "~ DoB=".date("Y-M-d",$dob)."~";

and this was returned:

Todaydate=2001-11-11~
Today=1005436800~ Startcheck=1005510600~ DoB=1005509700~
Today=2001-Nov-11~ Startcheck=2001-Nov-11~ DoB=2001-Nov-11~no

The last "no" is the original output, but before that you can see 'why' - if the date 
values/definitions are
modified, the code works exactly as (I perceive, is) required.

Regards,
=dn

[PHP] sending php page by mail

[Mark Wouters]

Hi all,

Description of my problem: i want to sent a newsletter to a mailgroup.
However i also want to be able to see who read the mail at a certain
moment and who didn't. Therefor i thought putting the page online, i.e.
it's a php page which gets its data from the database. By sending a mail
to the client with it's personal emailID, i can track who reads the mail
when accessing the php page.

That part works fine, but my problem now is that i want the page to be
opened directly in the mail, so the receiver of the mail does not have
to click on a link to see it..

Someone told me to use this:
$msg_body = "";
But all i get, working like this is a broken image in the mail.
This is the headers i use sending the mail:

$headers .= "From: ";
$headers .= "$mailfrom";
$headers .= "\nReply-To: ";
$headers .= "$mailfrom";
$headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1\n";

Did i forgot something? Is there an other way to do this?

Thank you very much for any answer!

See ya,

Max

[PHP] Re: warning eror

[Kal Amry]

This is a Cobalt box! well you should edit the code and look at line 141 -
What error it mentions.

Telnet to the box, and cd to that directory

then vi repeat.php to edit the file

then Type 141 and then Shift G

That should take you the line but if you are not familiar with vi the  do
not continue just exit by doing :q! Enter

It seems that this file is part of a php opensource or whatever application
so if you didn't code it I recoment u seek other alternatives - One could be
to copy the original file if you have it backed up and then back up that
repeat file on the server and then copy the original to the server and see
if that solve the problem!!

What error are you getting anyhow. If it is parse error then I doubt it is
line 141.

Can someone please tell me what to look for when this error appears:
Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in
/home/sites/site7/web/admin/repeat.php on line 141

It just came about in a page that has worked fine until now.  But that is
how problems usually arrive, I think it is fine and leave it alone and all
hell breaks loose.  If anyone has any input I would appreciate it.

Leave out the second $.

Eg, $this->database is correct.

Next time when debugging, set error_reporting(E_ALL);
This will catch this error I believe.

On (or before) line 141 of /home/sites/site7/web/admin/repeat.php, an array 
function is being used on a non-array value, and that won't work.

[PHP] #!/usr/local ignore option?

[Michael Rice]

Hi All,
I have a kind of unique problem that I've had trouble finding information 
on around the net. I have a site that I pay a hosting company for that 
expects my php scripts to have #!/usr/local/bin/php at the beginning of 
each script which works fine. Now, I'd like to keep a development server 
at home that uses Apache 22 and the latest php. 

I followed the installation instructions carefully can got php running 
great at home. The only problem is that it serves up the #!/usr... at the 
beginning of file, which wouldn't bother me except that it causes major 
problems with redirects.

Any ideas on how to tell my development server to ignore that line or to 
reconfigure my apache/php in some such that it won't serve up that line??

I promise that I did due diligence in looking around but came up empty 
handed... keyword searching has its limitations...

Thanks very much in advance.

A few options:

1.  Don't use absolute paths -- use relative paths.  Then you don't have to 
worry about it as long as the overall structure of your site stays the same.

2.  set a variable or named constant to the value of your path and then use 
that throughout your site.  For example:

DEFINE("MY_PATH","/www/my_newdir");

include(MY_PATH);

This works well when you have one file that contains all your named constants 
and other stuff that needs to be accessible on a global basis.  You then 
include that one file (using relative paths) at the top of every php page.  
If you need to change a value, you change it once in your global file and be 
done with it.

3.  It's fairly trivial to do an automated search and replace across multiple 
files.  Just do this and let the computer replace all occurances of 
include("/www/my_olddir") to include("/www/my_newdir")

Anyone have an example of mail() attaching a png or jpeg?

I'm doing this:

...
ImagePNG($image);
imagedestroy($image);





I am trying to determine if todays date ($today) is within a week 
($startcheck) of a given date ($dob). This is what I have so far.

$todaydate = (date("Y-d-m"));
$today = strtotime($todaydate);
// $today prior to strtotime = 2001-10-11
$startcheck = strtotime(2001-08-11);
$dob = strtotime(2001-15-11);

//$today is CLEARLY between the two dates I'm testing with but "no" is 
always returned.

if($today <= $dob && $startcheck <= $today) {
print "yes";
}
else {
print "no";
}

Here are the values assigned to the vars, why is $today so much smaller 
than $startcheck and $dob?

1002783600 = today
1005452940 = startcheck
1005451980 = dob

Thanks in advance







I'm trying to compile php-4.0.6 on FreeBSD-4.4-STABLE for Apache, and I've 
tried using both version 1 and 2 of the gd library; however, the compile 
continues to crash with undefined calls to gdImageGif.

I can see that in the code there are mentions of a drop-in replacement 
gd_png for this call -- however, I'm not a programmer and couldn't really 
figure it out.

Is this a known problem?  If so, is there a work around? 





Just for kicks, try this instead:

if (!isset($newimage))
{...

[PHP] warning eror

[brett]

Can someone please tell me what to look for when this error appears:
Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in 
/home/sites/site7/web/admin/repeat.php on line 141

It just came about in a page that has worked fine until now.  But that is how problems 
usually arrive, I think it is fine and leave it alone and all hell breaks loose.  If 
anyone has any input I would appreciate it.

[PHP] | delimiter can not be found with strpos nor with explode

[Kal Amry]

If I have the string like this "str1 | str2"

Then "|" is found

However, if I do the above as "str1|str2" without spaces

Then "|" can not be found

I appreciate any hints on a work around.

(1) [EMAIL PROTECTED] has nothing to do with this. So don't crosspost to 
there.

(2) No, it shouldn't work
"WHERE RAND ()" means "where some random number evaluates to true (i.e. 
is nonzero)"
you want "ORDER BY RAND () LIMIT 1"
