[PHP] Re: can php detect whether an email address is a valid one?

[dav]

You can do it like:
1) Have php send the email with a particulare return reply so that wrong
email addresses get sent back to it
2) Configure procmail to launch a php script when an email is received on
that account (the "return" one)
3) Write the php script (SCRIPT NOT WEB) to parse the email reiceved and
delete the email-address from database.

What I did once was to:
Write an email (mime format, with colors and images) to many persons with
"Hello $customer_name".
But the system had to be controlled by the business boss :) So he could
write an email to a "bot", and the "bot" converted all the $some_thing into
text taken from database. It's much similar than what it looks...

Re: [PHP] Checkboxes / Undefined Variables

[Jason G.]

your error reporting must be set to E_ALL.

a very simple way is:
$checkbox_3 = isset($checkbox_3);

Now, $checkbox_3 will be either TRUE or FALSE with no errors!

[PHP] Function Call Line Number

[Jason G.]

Hello,

Does anyone know of a way, that from within a function, you can determine 
what line number and file the function was called on?

I did try:
function myfunc($lineno = __LINE__)
{
echo $lineno;
}
but this just outputted the very line that __LINE__ resides on.

This would be very helpful in displaying sensible error messages, like the 
native php functions do.

Thanks,

use : @$name_of_chechbox_3   to suppress warnings
or at the start of the file do :

or something similar

In am HTML form, checkboxes NOT checked are not passed 
to the PHP script called by the form.

Therefore, if $name_of_chechbox_3 is not passed but it's 
used in the PHP script, it results in "Warning: 
Undefined Variable".

How can I avoid this?

[PHP] using sessions and include

[jtjohnston]

Martin, are ya out there? Does anyone know anything about sessions? (An
post & reply would be handy :)

I am using session_register. I have:

http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/index.html
http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/index.html.phps

Which submits to:

http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/postcard.php

http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/postcard.phps

postcard.php  is supposed to pass data to display_image.php

http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/display_image.php

http://www.collegesherbrooke.qc.ca/languesmodernes/postcard/display_image.phps

The problem is that display_image.php loses my data coming from
index.html

}else{
include "display_image.php";
}

But when I try to debug and remove the \\ on lines 3 & 4

//include("display_image.php");
//exit;

display_image.php will display my data correctly from index.html

Can anyone help? What am I doing wrong?

[PHP] Re: EXPIRATION PROBLEM; PLEASE HELP ME !!!

[Fred]

Your login.php uses the POST method to send the username and password to
main.php.  In general this is a good idea, because you do not want someone's
password available from the URL.  If you used the GET method you would not
have a problem with the page expiring, but the password would be available
in the URL.

I do not know of any way to get around this problem, browsers do not
automatically resend POST data as a security measure.  This is a good thing.

In order to get around this you need to change the logic of your scripts.
Put the verification and session code in login.php.  Login.php should check
for the username and password variables.  If they do not exist just show the
login form.  If they do exist, check them for validity and if they are valid
register the session and print a link to main.php or use javascript to
redirect to that page.

You don't! PHP and your browser will do it for you. It doesn't matter
whether you're in frames or not. All that matters is the cookie that is
automagically generated by the session manager and is sent to the server
on each request.

You only need a call to session_start() in each file that relies on the
session variables, and a session.register('varname') for each var once
you've decided you want it being saved accross pages.

Sorry about asking a non-PHP question here, but I thought that since I've
been helping others recently, you'll give me a bit of lee-way.

In IE, to find out how far down a page is scrolled, you can do
"document.body.scrollTop"
what's the equivalent in Netscape 6 ?

Yep, and that's one thing I've been looking at. See, I find it strange
that you need an KEY idpass (id, passcode(245)) when the ID is
quaranteed to be unique in itself.

Funny... Would not explain why you get more, I'd rather expect you to
get fewer entries.

Anyway. Try this: Drop the passcode VARCHAR and make it fixed CHAR(10).
It seems like MySQL can't keep up with the speed of your inserts, and
varchar is obnoxiously slow.

You can set the "Error-To: " header to some email address that runs a script

I have a php script sending newsletter to a mailing list time by time,

Can php detect whether an email address is a valid one, then remove it 
from the list automatically? no matter before or after the newsletter

RE: [PHP] take date and convert to day of year

[Martin Towell]

I'm running on WinNT4 w/ PHP 4.0.6 and the code I supplied came back with
333
and for today I get 317
dunno why you're getting 364

I have tried to implement your code Martin, and I do thank you VERY MUCH 
for the help, but your code seems to have the same trouble as mine, it 
doesn't matter what date I start with, I end up with 364 as the day of 
the year, I am on win32 though I don't know if that matters.

Here is what I tried:


//FORMAT HAS TO BE date("d-M-Y");
//GET DAY OF YEAR FOR DOB utime = UNIX time
$utine = strtotime("30-Nov-1971");
$dob = getdate($utime);
$dobnum = $dob['yday'];
print "dob is " . $dobnum . "";

//GET DAY OF YEAR FOR TODAY
//$today = date("d-M-Y");
$utoday = strtotime(date("d-M-Y"));
$today = getdate($utoday);
$todaynum = $today['yday'];
print "today is " . $todaynum . "";

There should be a different of about 17 days here right? Not if this is 
returning 364 for $dobnum, then it's 48!

[PHP] Security concerns with Virtual Hosts

[Michael A. Peters]

I am not going to mention which host I'm using for obvious reasons.

However, I'm wondering if it is just a mis-configuration, or if it is a
weakness in php.

With this host, you initially have the same database password to the MySQL
database as you do to the account. It is wise to change both, and to
change them to different passwords, but this is the real world, baby...

Anyway, when setting up phpbb I didn't like the fact that the password is
stored within the document root. That's easy enough to change- move it
outside, and run a sed script to change the include path for that file.

I then thought of another issue. My MySQL database name that was given to
me is identical to my username to log into this server. So I did a SHOW
DATABASES in MySQL and got myself a collection of all the user names on
the system.

Then I wrote a script to wget http://servername/~username/phpbb/config.php
What it got wasn't useful, but did tell me the file was there.

So I wrote a php script in my directory to sizeof
/home/username/public_html/phpbb/config.php and then send the text/plain
mime type, and read the file.

Right there in my browser I had the a text file containing some guys MySQL
password, which could be his login password as well.

There were about a dozen sites running phpbb in a directory called phpbb
with the config file where I expected it to be.

The web server MUST have permission to read that file since php is an
apache module.

What I would like to know is if there an apache directive you can put in a
VirtualHost container that tells the php engine that it is NOT allowed to
read files or include files or etc. outside of a certain directory.

A directive that could look like this:
phpreadroot "/home/username"

There's still the problem of the exec() function, which could circumvent
that, but exec() I think can be turned off (and probably should on
multiuser systems)

As a user, if I tried to cat the file, I would be rejected. But the web
server would not be. I assume this same type of vulnerability exists with
cgi-bin as well, although I think there are solutions where the script
runs with the users permissions, not the web servers's. I don't know
cgi-bin security that well.

I guess the bottom line is be sure to have your database password
different from your login password, and rename and/or move any config
files that contain the database password, but is there any way within php
to limit the ability of people to do what I did?

There's a bazillion user accounts on this machine, most of them porn
sites, and lets just say I don't personally believe that "porn webmasters"
will follow the common courtesy rules.

Hell, I guess even I didn't technically- since I did extract someone's
database password.

Any ideas?

The value you are passing in $myrow["id"] doesn't exist in your code. You 
need to do 

$myrow = mysql_fetch_row($id);

after your mysql_query to populate the row data. And your query should 
probably read "SELECT id FROM...

Well, what exactly is your include_path setting? $DOCUMENT_ROOT certainly 
works on a W98, I'll just fire up an NT4 w/station here and see Works 
a treat there. Are you by chance running php as a cgi - that may have a 
bearing? See what phpinfo has to say.

David's correct. The reason it wasn't working for you is that you didn't put
braces around the code you wanted executed in the if statement. Also, to
output large chunks of html in a simple manner with variables included, look
into "here docs". They look like this:

You can drop in and out of php parsing, even in a control structure. So 
something like


That

will work just fine.

You'll need to recompile and specify odbc support in your configure 
flags. You'll also need to get hold of some odbc software - check the 
manual for some sources at this link
 http://au2.php.net/manual/en/install.configure.php#install.configure.data
bases

There are several odbc options - I don't know which is better or worse 
but a search through the mail archives will probably turn up some recent 
discussion.

[PHP] Re: Can If Else statements be split into code blocks??

[Brad Melendy]

Ok, I figured out that just using echo seems to be the best way to do this
under PHP.  In ASP, you can end your code block and start in with HTML, but
I couldn't get that to work with PHP.  However, I was able to just use the
echo statement to get the conditional HTML I wanted to show up when the
proper condition was met in the If Else statement.

Re: [PHP] take date and convert to day of year

[sundogcurt]

I have tried to implement your code Martin, and I do thank you VERY MUCH 
for the help, but your code seems to have the same trouble as mine, it 
doesn't matter what date I start with, I end up with 364 as the day of 
the year, I am on win32 though I don't know if that matters.

Here is what I tried:


//FORMAT HAS TO BE date("d-M-Y");
//GET DAY OF YEAR FOR DOB utime = UNIX time
$utine = strtotime("30-Nov-1971");
$dob = getdate($utime);
$dobnum = $dob['yday'];
print "dob is " . $dobnum . "";

//GET DAY OF YEAR FOR TODAY
//$today = date("d-M-Y");
$utoday = strtotime(date("d-M-Y"));
$today = getdate($utoday);
$todaynum = $today['yday'];
print "today is " . $todaynum . "";

There should be a different of about 17 days here right? Not if this is 
returning 364 for $dobnum, then it's 48!

[PHP] newbie question about odbc_connect

[Johannes Ambrose]

Hi,
I've been happily using mysql_connect() for various scripts on a linux
box. Now I'd like to connect to a filemaker pro database using
odbc_connect(). However, the response I get is "Call to undefined
function".

Do I need to compile odbc support? (I thought it was built in.)

Is there an include file somewhere that I need to specifiy?

It is documented for mktime - it says '...it will automatically calculate

where the month value is 13 (at least in my older docs).

Re: [PHP] javascript to php ???????

[Richard S. Crawford]

Why, sure!

In your FORM tag, use ACTION="test.php".

You can send your JavaScript variable as part of the form, in a hidden form 
field such as INPUT TYPE="hidden" VALUE=myValue.  The value of the variable 
will be available the next time test.php shows up as $myValue.  You can 
then manipulate it to your heart's delight.

sure. for GET you would just make a request out of the variables,
i.e.:
var url="/mypage.php?value[0]="+value[0]+"value[1]="+value[1];
document.location.href=url;

you can do this in a loop if you want. for POST you would use hidden
fields, i.e.:

document.write('');
document.write('');

you could do this in a loop too.

"serialise" the array and make the "value" of a hidden field this value.
Then in PHP "unserialise" it.

RE: [PHP] take date and convert to day of year

[Martin Towell]

looking at the manual, getdate() is meant to be passed a unix time stamp,
so, you'll need to use strtotime() first thus:

$utime = strtotime("30-Nov-1971");
$dob = getdate($utime);
$dobnum = $dob['yday'];
print $dobnum;

Notice I changed the format of the date, when I tried using the original
format, strtotime() complained, saying it couldn't convert it.

Hi guys, I know that you can take todays date and display it as the 
numeric day of the year, 1 - 365 / 0 - 364 etc.
But can you take a date such as (November-30-1971) and convert that to 
the numeric day of the year?

I have been trying to do this but have had no joy, I don't think my code 
is even close.

$dob = getdate("Nov-30-1971");
$dobnum = $dob['yday'];
print $dobnum;

$dob 'should' be an array and 'yday' should be the numeric value for the 
day of the year, right?!?

This is what I am trying, and how I understand it, using 'yday' should 
give you basically the same output as date ("z");

What I would like is the ability to convert any date to the days numeric 
value. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Problems with headers in redirect

[John Steele]

Hi Richy,

  Try sending the content header before the location header:

header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
header("Location: http://yourhost.com/yourfile.jpg";);

Append manually the  (or session_name()."=".session_id()) to the
javascript code it works well :)

Re: [PHP] getrusage() not supported

[Larry Jeannette II]

According to the docs, it says to check your systems man pages for
getrusage. Since they appear to referencing *nix system (no man in NT), my
guess is that NT does not support it. In fact, executing getrusage at the
NT command prompt gives the 'not recognized internal or external command'
error.

[PHP] take date and convert to day of year

[sundogcurt]

Hi guys, I know that you can take todays date and display it as the 
numeric day of the year, 1 - 365 / 0 - 364 etc.
But can you take a date such as (November-30-1971) and convert that to 
the numeric day of the year?

I have been trying to do this but have had no joy, I don't think my code 
is even close.

$dob = getdate("Nov-30-1971");
$dobnum = $dob['yday'];
print $dobnum;

$dob 'should' be an array and 'yday' should be the numeric value for the 
day of the year, right?!?

This is what I am trying, and how I understand it, using 'yday' should 
give you basically the same output as date ("z");

What I would like is the ability to convert any date to the days numeric 
value. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

[PHP] PDF Library Not Working (Call to undefined function)

[Robert Miller]

I RTFM but did not find a solution. My head hurts from banging it against =
the wall. :-P

Apache, OpenSSL, MySQL and PHP work fine... but the PDF libraries will not =
work. I used the following configure commands:

PHP:  './configure' '--with-mysql=3D/usr/local/mysql/' '--with-xml' =
'--with-apache=3D../apache_1.3.22/' '--with-curl=3D/usr/local/curl' =
'--enable-shared-pdflib' '--enable-track-vars'

PDFLib: Almost defaults... just turned off Python and C/C++.

I can provide a complete list of configure options and the order they were =
executed if you need them...

The error message when attempting to use the PDFLib functions is:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_new() in /usr/local/apache/htd=
ocs/program/dmipps/pdfdemo.php on line 2


Thanks for any help, it's really appreciated.

[PHP] Adding Dates (To Obtain Future Dates)

[Robert Miller]

This problem took a while to figure out. I'm posting the solution so that =
other's may find this example. If you know of a better way, please reply. =
:-)

Cheers,

Rob

Problem: Generate Future Dates:
Sub-Problem: Future Dates are Dictated by Record Type (Permanent or =
Temporary)
The Script:

$cyear =3D date("Y");
$cmonth =3D  date("m");
$cday =3D date("d");
if ($sType =3D=3D p)
{
   $fyear =3D $cyear + 6
   $sExpiry =3D $fyear.$cmonth.$cday;
}
else
{
   $adv =3D $cmonth + 6;
   $newunix =3D mktime(0,0,0,$adv,$cmonth,$cyear);
   $sExpiry =3D date("Ymd", $newunix);
}

$sCreated =3D date("Ymd");
$sUpdated =3D date("Ymd");



It seems weird to have use months possibly greater than 12 ($adv =3D =
$cmonth + 6;), but hey... it works.

Re: [PHP] Re: $QUERY_STRING

[Ernesto]

Nop. getenv("QUERY_STRING") also returns an empty string.
The crazy thing is that getenv returns an empty string instead of FALSE.
Anyway, if I do "index.php?a=1", I get HTTP_GET_VARS['a']==1, but 
$QUERY_STRING is still empty :(

[PHP] Re: $QUERY_STRING

Try getenv() function to import the query string from apache ambient.
This is not a bug, maybe the index.php?1 isn't standard at all.

[PHP] $QUERY_STRING

[Ernesto]

Hi,

I'm a newbie using Apache 1.3.22 and PHP 4.0.6 on Windows.
I'm trying to access the $QUERY_STRING var, but it's empty even when I 
do have a query string. On one server (Win2K), it works ok. On the other 
server (WinXP) it's always empty.
If I use "index.php?s=1", $HTTP_GET_VARS['s'] is 1, but I need the raw 
query string because it's something like "index.php?1".

Is this a known bug on PHP/WinXP?

Ernesto

Re: [PHP] I Need To Upload Massive Huge Files : 20Mb

[The Big Roach]

Thanks Sebastian,

I'll take a look at our proxy logs.
I've also discovered a perl script deep in the bowels of our servers which
seem to be a problem.
Here's an error log excerpt:

POPSTACK
panic: POPSTACK
panic: POPSTACK
panic: POPSTACK
panic: POPSTACK
panic: POPSTACK
[Tue Nov 13 13:26:57 2001] [error] [client "IP ADDRESS HERE"] Premature end
of script headers:
/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/imanager/wizards/fm_upload.cgi
FATAL:  erealloc():  Unable to allocate 6940001 bytes

Can't imagine why it panics when it pops the stack.
Anyhow, proof here-in lies that I'm being limited : unable to allocate
bytes.
Unforunately I have no admin rights setup for this machine to mess with this
cgi.

I'll keep you all posted... seems like there's a lot of interest in
uploading files, &c.

[PHP] Basic handling of pre 1901 dates

[George Whiffen]

I'm feeling dumb!

The Basic Problem
=

Basically all I want to do is to output each day in turn from 1900 i.e.

01-Jan-1900
02-Jan-1900
03-Jan-1900
etc.

But date() won't accept dates pre 13-Dec-1901
and mktime doesn't like anything pre 01-Jan-1970.

I know I can get mysql to do this without trouble but not efficiently.

So how do you work with pre-1901 dates in php?

The Full Problem


In actual fact what I'm trying to do is list all dates within 
a given range which are NOT in a mysql table.

The dates and date ranges can span anywhere from 1850 to the
present.

I can very easily use mysql to generate an array of the days
which are present in the table.  What I can't seem to do is 
get php to run through each day in turn and let me output it.

The only possible solution I can think of is to just generate a 
dummy mysql table with all dates I might ever use and then join 
that to my actual date table and select the non-matches.  Not a very 
elegant solution!

What have I missed?

A space is a valid string. Are you sure there is a space?

";

if(is_null($a)) {

Hi!

I'm trying to send a mail with password to the new user of my website, but

I have tried this:

  mysql_select_db("subway",$db);

  $sql = "INSERT INTO nettkunder

  $result = mysql_query($sql);

  echo "Velkommen som kunde hos Subway.\n";

}

  $db = mysql_connect("localhost", "root");

  mysql_select_db("subway",$db);


$id = mysql_query("GET id FROM nettkunder WHERE epost = '$epost'",$db);

RE: [PHP] Variable definitions...

[Neil Kimber]

BTW, the official explanation is wrong.

"local part this variable is destroyed and declared again"

is incorrect. The global variable is not destroyed. The local namespace
pushes the variable name onto the stack and gives it a value for the
duration of the function. Every time you try and access this variable it is
taken from the stack by the parser. Once you exit the function the local
namespace is destroyed and all the local variables are popped from the
stack. If the call stack is in the Global area then all variabels are
accessed from the heap,  so your original variable (and its original value)
are still accessible.

[PHP] Expiration problem

[Gustavo Luis Pereira Verly]

Hi everybody, this is my first time writing in this list.

I have the next problem:

I have a page called

login.php

and when I log in,  there's a new page who receive the user and the
password, and this page is called

main.php

This page, check if the user have a valid account and a password; and if
this is OK, then make a session for the user. This work OK; but, from the
main.php I go to a link in the same page, but with a new parameter, for
example:   and the page showme another screen
(because this new screen only appears when I put the "option=1" as
parameter); and this also OK.
The problem appears when I make click on the BACK BUTTON from my browser,
and the browser go back from "main.php?option=1" to the "main.php" page, and
get me a error:
the page was expire, you have to click REFRESH button on your
browser to send the information again.
(( or sometime like that; I don't remember the exacts words, 'cause is a
spanish Internet Explorer ))

Can somebody helpme with this problem?

Thanks

Gustavo Pereira

Re: [PHP] Variable definitions...

[Chris Hobbs]

Hi Stephan,

IMHO, I think the answer requested is the only one that really makes 
sense - as soon as I read it, _my_ first thought went to scope.

If a variable changes values, the other value is no longer usable, and 
thus there aren't really two variables with the same name in that case. 
When comparing global to local scope, however, you can definitely have 
the same name in use in two places.

Of course, I wasn't a CS major, so someone else might be able to give 
you an answer that will help you justify yours - but prima facie, you 
got it wrong :(

Now, if you're talking about the compiler level, then no two variables 
(which are actually memory registers at this point, iirc) can share the 
same memory space with different values - this is just logically 
impossible. But the question is certainly referring to source code, and 
so scope is the only reasonable answer.

HTH!

[PHP] Advice Needed

[Joe Van Meer]

Hi there. I have a small php app connected to sqlServer db. The app is used
as a code library for various programming languages. Basically, a code
repository.  My problem is this, I would like to be able to insert the code
for a function (the actual code) into the db. However, I keep running into
the quote problem when inserting. In Asp for example, commenting is done by
using a ' . When I try to insert some asp code into the db via my php app,
it throws errors. Somebody had mentioned that using addslashes() and
stripslashes () functions would do the trick. Is there a better way to do
this or are these two functions the best to use? Also, how do I keep the
formatting of a function to stay the same while inputting and retrieving?

Your time is greatly appreciated!
Thx Joe

[PHP] User Authentication

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good place on the web to learn about user
authentication.
I want users of my site to login with a username & password - once they are
logged in they can see information customised to each separate user.
Without being logged in the won't see any valuable information.
Especially issues dealing with hackers.

RE: [PHP] Re: Empty form variables when uploading, Help please???

[Warren Vail]

Interesting because I have used multiple submit buttons on forms for years.
Each can have a different name, and even if I use the same name for all of
them, which I often do, each can have a separate value.  Each will cause all
other form fields to transmit their variables in their usual manner, but
obviously I will only receive one submit button( the one that was clicked).
If all are named "go" with different values (what displays on the button),
all I have to do is;

Switch($go) {
 Case "Add":  something; break;
 Case "Update":  something, break;
 Case "Delete":  something else, break;
}

 << File: [PHP] Re Empty form variables when uploading, Help please.txt >>
In a form you can't really have 2 submit buttons.
Either a submit submits or it is just a button.
That's because the var name is already submit (check out your
http_post_vars).
And you have it twice!
Change one of them and make it just a button (HTML4).
Recheck your post-vars.
This should help.

Otherwise you're loosing your post vars somehwere in the fire-wall.
That's bad!

Hi everybody,

I hope someone is able to help me with this, I've been having this problem
for  a couple of months now and I have not been able to find a solution. I
have a form to upload a file which submits to itself, and has two submit
buttons, one called "eliminarfoto" (deletephoto) and "salvar" (savephoto),
but for some weird and unexplainable reason (it only happens to some users,
not all of them) when they hit any of these two submit buttons, the form
returns empty variables.

This is part of my script, has anybody had a similar problem before??? Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Try this code:

$n=count($Wort);

[PHP] matches problem ("preg_match")

hello
we want to save every word of a text in an array field.
we want to solve the problem without "split".

Here's our code:

$str="eins zwei drei vier fünf sechs";
preg_match("'(\w+)(\s+\w+)*'",$str,$Wort);

$n=count($Wort);
for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++){echo "$i: $Wort[$i]";}

The result is:
0: eins zwei drei vier fünf sechs
1: eins
2: sechs

it only saves the first and the last word.
why doesn't it save every single word in one array field?
can anybody give us the (corrected) code to achieve the desired result?

[PHP] Variable definitions...

[Stephan]

Hello,

first of all I didn't exactely know where the right place is to ask this
question.

Well, my problem is that I just had some exams and am very unhappy on
how certain things were rated.

There's especially one question and I try to translate it as exact as
possible:

When is it possible that two variables have the same name but display
different variables?

The official solution was when in a script a global variable is declared
and then in a local part this variable is destroyed and declared again
with the same name (maybe even using different data type).

As for me, I'm of the opinion that this definition according to the
question is too narrow minded. I think that a variable is already
different if the the value within the variable is changed due to script
OR if you appoint a new value to the variable OR if the variable is an
array and some elements are accessed / elements are added / elements are
removed.
The reason why I think variables with different values can be considered
as different variable according to the question asked in the exam is
that when you declare a variable it also has a value even if this value
is NULL.

Now I'd like very much to hear your opinion on this issue since for me
very much depends on that (3 years of studying at college).

Stephan

That's definetely not true. You can have more than one submit buttons in
a form. I often make formulars with more than one submit button, there
have not been any problems. 
You just have give a name and a value to your submit buttons. Then you
can check which one was pressed by the user.
For example:
...


...

Then just write:
if ($submit1 == "do this")
...
else if ($submit2) == "do that")
...

To [EMAIL PROTECTED]: 
Please post some code your formular action script (foto.php). Having
just the form, we can guess what went wrong.

[PHP] I Need To Upload Massive Huge Files : 20Mb

[The Big Roach]

Fans!

I need your help, but first you must worship me.
Does PHP have a flakey file upload limit? Or what could be wrong?

max_upload_size and all that is set to 32Mb.
post_max_size is also set to 32Mb.
max_exec_time is set to 0 (unlimited).
apache's timeout is set to 1800 (30 mins).

And my 6Mb or less files upload.
But not my 7+Mb files.
This is frustrating.

But I think Rasmus can answer this for me.
Rasmus, over to you...

Here's my code just to prove I'm not a proud ^%#@!

  $conn_id = ftp_connect("$ftp_server");
  $login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "$ftp_user_name",
"$ftp_user_pass");
  if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)){
  echo "Ftp connection failed!";
  die;
  }
  else {
  echo "Connected to $ftp_server!";
  }

  @ftp_chdir($conn_id, $my_dir);

  @ftp_pasv ($conn_id, TRUE);

  /*Using ftp_fput*/
  $local_file = fopen($source_file, "r");
  $upload = @ftp_fput($conn_id, $destination_file, $local_file,
FTP_BINARY);
  /*Using ftp_put*/
/*  $upload = @ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $source_file,
FTP_BINARY);*/

  if (!$upload) {
  echo "Ftp upload failed!";
  $headers = getallheaders();
  while (list ($header, $value) = each ($headers)) {
  echo "$header: $value\n";
  }
  }
  else {
  echo "Ftp upload successfull!Uploaded $destination_file to
$ftp_server/$my_dir";
  $headers = getallheaders();
  while (list ($header, $value) = each ($headers)) {
  echo "$header: $value\n";
  }
  }

  @ftp_quit($conn_id);

RE: [PHP] Re: Empty form variables when uploading, Help please???

[PACKER, Steffan]

another option could be to make the choice between delete and update two
radio buttons with the same name and just have the one submit button, then
add extra logice to your PHP script to either delete or update depending on
the value of this field.

good luck!
Steffan

In a form you can't really have 2 submit buttons.
Either a submit submits or it is just a button.
That's because the var name is already submit (check out your
http_post_vars).
And you have it twice!
Change one of them and make it just a button (HTML4).
Recheck your post-vars.
This should help.

Otherwise you're loosing your post vars somehwere in the fire-wall.
That's bad!

Hi everybody,

I hope someone is able to help me with this, I've been having this problem
for  a couple of months now and I have not been able to find a solution. I
have a form to upload a file which submits to itself, and has two submit
buttons, one called "eliminarfoto" (deletephoto) and "salvar" (savephoto),
but for some weird and unexplainable reason (it only happens to some users,
not all of them) when they hit any of these two submit buttons, the form
returns empty variables.

This is part of my script, has anybody had a similar problem before??? Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Mysql and Images

[Stefan Rusterholz]

If I understand you right, then what you want is just impossible.
You have to give a source as filepath. You can't put the binary picture data
into the same output.
What you could is to have a file which calls itself with params telling it
to output now the image instead of the html e.g. example.php which produces
without given parameters html like

You can then check in the example.php file if $showimage is set. if it is
set then you call a function to send correct header and binary data and die
afterwards (better: exit ;-)
But due hold it more simple I would hardly suggest you to have image-output
functions in a separate file. You can still use that file for all images in
your database

If I misunderstood you and you just want a sample code for outputting
picture-data then look at this:


I hope I could help you

[PHP] RE: server side games question

[Brinkman, Theodore]

PHP will do fine.  What's the project?  I'm a wannabe game developer, and I
had a bit of fun a few months back with randomly generated, but
reproducable, game worlds (in my case it was a star map for a space conquest
type of game).  It's a really neat concept, and its how alot of the 'big
world' games were done when games came on floppy disks.  

The code isn't very polished, but if you're interested in that sort of
thing, I can dig it up and fire it off to you.

Subject: server side games question


Hi,

Right I'm still pretty new to server side programming and have a few
questions regarding the possible uses of existing technology in 'low-tech'
(not 3d FPS/RTS/RPGs) online games.  As I understand it PHP is used to add
dynamic content to HTML (from MySQL database for example) and it is also
possible to write applications in C/C++ that run on server computer (SUSE
7.2 + APACHE for example) that update databases at set time intervals.  I am
a games programmer and was wondering if it would be possible to code the
following system which would run on an SUSE Apache server box:

An database containing client and game data (use MySQL?),
An HTML/PHP based front end (is PHP best choice for this?),
A Some form of application that process the game or turn info (in the DB) at
set time intervals and updates the game database with it (use C/C++?).

I am competent in C/C++, ok at php and ok at MySQL but not sure how to fit
it all together like how do I go about creating an application that
process's the database?  Can any one suggest sites/books/people who I could
read/ask to find out more about this idea?  Also are the languages I
specified the best languages to use for this?  I am open to suggestions and
constructive criticism.

Cheers,

Daniel

[PHP] URL Headers - Retrieval

[HEW Staff]

I currently have a script which gathers information from a site, adds a new
variable and then resubmits it as a post back to the originating script.

I need to gather the header information from the final response to
categorise the errors received. At the moment the error I get is not
consistant with the information that has been sent.

My hosting server, w/ Apache/1.3.19 PHP 4.0.6 and Linux does not have the
CURL lib installed.

Any help much appreciated.
