[PHP] split() - not working in this case

2002-09-08 Thread N. Pari Purna Chand


I have a string 
$to =  abcd [EMAIL PROTECTED], efgh [EMAIL PROTECTED] ;

I want a function returning an array of
indivial names+mailids like from the $to seperated by ,
something like
$tos[0] = abcd [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$tos[1] = efgh [EMAIL PROTECTED];

Now split() in the following function*** is notworking as needed.
ie, I'm getting 
$tos[0] = abcd;
$tos[1] = efgh;

Not the complete name + mailid,
Why ?

split didn't do anything wrong.  use your browser's view source to see
the desired output.  funny things, those less-than  greater-than
characters ... they make browsers think you've created an HTML tag!

Two things you can do to make displaying such data in a browser:

1) if you're trying to display text that has HTML entities in it,
   within a HTML page, use the htmlentities() function when
   printing output.   http://www.php.net/htmlentities

2) if you don't care about HTML at all, send a Content-type header that
   tells the browser what you're sending is text.
   header( Content-type: text/plain );

Okay, having had my own solution shot and burned ;), I would love to look at
yours, but unfortunately the page (well, the entire site), will not load.
It could be a temporary outage with either ISP, but is there anyway you
could post it here? (I perhaps flag it as large?).

On my site, I'm not really bothered about most of the session data being
hijacked, because  a user would still not be able to be malicious (any

check before it's executed, that verifies the username/password.
Of course, this then becomes a problem if the user has stored the password

 Dear all:

 Until I read the article PHP Session security
 (http://www.webkreator.com/php/configuration/php-session-security.html)
 I haven't noticed how insecure PHP Sessions are.



 Basically there're 2 problems:

 *) It's possible to hijack a session if you know the
 SID (session id)

  1) If you're on a shared server (cheap webhosting)
 other users can get the SIDs by doing ls /tmp/sess_*
 (/tmp/ is defined on session.save_path on the config
 file, so it may be different).

  2) When a user clicks on an external link, the
 browser sends the REFERER url and sometimes it
 contains the SID (if session.use_trans_sid is enabled)

 PHP offers a security measure: with
 session.referer_check it will reject SIDs comming from
 other referers, but the referer url can be easily
 forged.

 *) Users can read session data from the session files,
 which are owned by the server process (every user
 which has an account on the webserver can read server
 owned files)

 (If you're intrested in the subject I would recommend
 to read full the article:
 http://www.webkreator.com/php/configuration/php-session-security.html)

 I have developed some functions to avoid this
 problems. They replace the standard session functions
 (using session_set_save_handler), so you only have to
 include the file at the beggining of your script and
 (afaik) you're safe :)

 This is the idea:

 Apart from the session cookie, I set another one (with
 the same name and the string '_sec' appended). On this
 cookie I set a random KEY.
 The name of the file which contains the session data
 is the md5 hash of the SID and the KEY together. This
 turns impossible to guess the session id by looking at
 the filenames.

 To hide the data inside the file, the serialized
 string is crypted using the KEY as password, so nobody
 can see the content of your user's sessions.

 You can find the code here:
 http://www.n3rds.com.ar/files/docs/php_sessions/sess_handler.txt

 Im looking for suggestions to make it 100% compatible
 with the standard session functions, and I would like
 to hear some thougts about the idea

Nope, have no idea... I've just allways been told (and adhered to) the rule
that you don't trust anything client side, which would include IP address'.
Even if you could get it working for AOL, what about some other ISP located

Don't trust IPs.  AOL was just an example.

[PHP] Re: Proposal for securing PHP sessions

2002-09-08 Thread M1tch

One thing that I did that may help.
Every time a session is opened, the system insists on writing to disk on
every page, whether the session is updated or not.
With a lot of users, this is a bit of a system bog.

So, I hold the contents of a session when 'read', in a global variable.
Then, in the write function, I see if it's changed. If it has, I do the
write. If it hasn't, I simply return from the function.

Re: [PHP] How to program very basic chat on PHP?

Hi Mig,


to create something that behaves more like a true chat, you 
need an active client side.
For example, you could let a frame with the PHP be reloaded in a 
short interval.

To create a real chat, you need a socket connection. The best 
solution would be Flash (which has great functions for that). 
Java is another option.

When using ldaps:// all communications are through SSL, you do bind
etc as usual and your data will be tunneled through SSL.

 How do I specify a key/certificate for encrypting and decrypting?

For SSL and the necessary encryption you only need a certificate at
the server. It seems you have done this, that is enough for the
communications to be encrypted. You may want to give your client a
certificate for the CA that signed the server certificate, see my
mail on LDAP and SSL on php-general from Aug 26th (and the mail I
replied to). It is also possible to give the client a certificate if
you want the server to know which client it is talking to.

For details on LDAP and SSL I suggest you look at OpenLDAP docs, in
OpenLDAP list archives etc. Doing SSL with OpenLDAP is the same
when using PHP and other tools. Using ldaps:// in the connect is
similar to using -H ldaps:// to OpenLDAP tools like ldapsearch etc.

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way that I can pass on an information
from a pull down menu into a sql query. Right now I have to right a PHP page
for each piece I am wanting to pass on. Example I have a movie database and
now if I want to see what is in my Anime Category that starts with A I
have to create a page like this:

Select * FROM database WHERE category = 'anime' AND title like 'A%'

I know I have to do an array? Would it be like this?

$category 
$letter 

Select * FROM database WHERE category = '$category' and title is like
'$letter'

But it get to the sql statement is where I am lost.

Can't you make a form?
Lets say you have a lexical database for categories like:
IDNAME
1 Anime
2 Action
etc...

then in the form so:
select name='cat'
?php
$query = select * from categories;
$result = run_query($query);
while($row = fetch_array($result)
{
echo option value=$row[0]$row[1]/option;
}
free_result($result)
?
/select

This would send to the form action page the numerical representation of 
the categoried selected from the drop down list.

 I created a nice system, whereby if your IP is changed (or someone is
 hacking your session), the session is destroyed, and the user must log in.
 Does not add much overhead either.

large ISPs like AOL use variable IPs (your IP could change from page to
page)... that's a pretty good reason to start with.

if people get disconnected, they too are likely to have a new IP on most
dial-up ISPs.

The app, is that your PHP script? Or is it the LDAP library (PHP is

try to authenticate and search with ldapsearch or similar tool and
see if it happens then?

[PHP] dropping mail into queue

2002-09-08 Thread Petre Agenbag

Hi list
Is is possible to change the default behaviour of the mail() function to
send the message to the queue instead of trying to send it immediately? 
I did do some research into this a while back, but it never really got
to a point where I was completely satisfied with the results. I can
recall from then that the behaviour of the mail() function was inherited
from the way sendmail was configured on the server, but I cannot go that
route ( ie, reconfigure sendmail to send all mail requests to the queue,
as the server is not only a webserver, but servers my clients normal
e-mail as well), so I'm basically asking if it is possible to override
the sendmail behaviour when you issue the mail() function, or to even
compose and write the message directly to the /var/spool/mqueue folder (
that would obviously NOT use the mail() function).
The reason for all this is that there are some clients that are
abusing/miss-using the mail() function to query a mysql db of 20K users
with a while() loop and then doing a mail() inside the while, this is
causing some serious problems on my server, and I'm trying to look for
ways to put a tab on this.So any other suggestions are also very
welcome.
Thanks

[PHP] Upload Progress

2002-09-08 Thread Jacob Miller

Everything I've read says that there is no way to display the progress of a 
file upload (via a form) using PHP.

I'm currently working on a site which will regularly be accepting very 
large uploads, anywhere from 10 to 250+ mb and I really need a way to 
display the progress of the upload so that it doesn't appear as if the 
browser has frozen for a few hours.

Any suggestions for a solution?

[PHP] Need a Linux Guru!

2002-09-08 Thread SaschaBraun

Hi,

I'm setting up an Linux Server for codetesting an routing, but it takes
about one week now to configure this s**t.

I could make the routing working. But some Daemons don't start at bootup.
Such as Apache, Squid, MySQL and so on. The only way I'm able to surf in the
Internet is to start Squid after booting manually from Commandline via SSH.

I've read somewhere that if the DNS isn't configured right squid is not able
to run at bootup. So I believe it has something to do with this.

I need really help on this. So please write me if you are willing and able
to help me.

I can give you the IP and the Root Acount information, or you describe me
how i can solve my problem.

The Server runs SuSE 8.0.

Another Problem is, that I don't know where to setup or start the FTPD
daemon.

Please, please Help

Sascha

Re: [PHP] Upload Progress

2002-09-08 Thread Jed Verity

There really isn't a great solution for this, that I know of. It's one of
the few things that makes an argument for ASP over PHP, as far as I'm
concerned (if you have the luxury of choosing). Below is what I did once to
try to get around the problem. It worked *okay*.

The bummer is that I had to ask people to enter the size of their file in a
field. (Rough estimates were okay.) Then, as soon as somebody hit the submit
button on my form, I popped up a small, modal, progress bar sized window
that was actually two frames. I passed the file size value from the form
field to the top frame. In the bottom frame, JavaScript created a bordered
div equal in pixel length to the number of MB of the file being uploaded.
The top frame, a PHP doc, would then refresh every three seconds, executing
a filesize() on the uploaded file, converting it to MB, rounding up, and
then using DHTML to resize the width of a blue-gradient gif contained in the
div of the bottom frame of the progress bar window.

Typically, this worked okay for me. It wasn't the prettiest progress bar in
the world, but it did the trick for most people.

HTH!

Re: [PHP] Need a Linux Guru!

Hi,

cd /etc/rc.d
locate the scripts reflecting the services you need to start at boot
do insserv for each script.
e.g.
insserv apache

That way, next time it boots these services will start.
Another way is to use the runtime-level editor of YaST2.

 Hi,
 
 I'm setting up an Linux Server for codetesting an routing, but it takes

 I could make the routing working. But some Daemons don't start at bootup.
 Such as Apache, Squid, MySQL and so on. The only way I'm able to surf in the

 I've read somewhere that if the DNS isn't configured right squid is not able

 I need really help on this. So please write me if you are willing and able

 I can give you the IP and the Root Acount information, or you describe me

Shoudn't it be:

if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query(INSERT INTO events_Williams ('user', 'detaildesc', 'index',
'reference', 'date_added') VALUES
('$cookiewho','$add_Williams','','$row_num','$last_update'), $sql4)
or print mysql_error();
}
You need the '(' and ')' in your query to group VALUES

(And what's with all the escaping with '\'?  They don't appear to be
needed and make it look very cluttered, i.e. not very readable.

[PHP] Upgrading PHP on Redhat

2002-09-08 Thread David Yee

Hi all. What's the correct procedure to upgrade PHP (in this case 4.0.6) on
a Red Hat system?  Usually I just get the PHP tarball compile it myself but
for this particular machine I just want to upgrade the Redhat PHP that's on
the system.  As you guys know Redhat puts its PHP (and Apache) files in
different locations- e.g. php.ini is in /etc.  I looked for some RPMs but I
kept getting failed dependencies when trying to install them- e.g.:

# rpm -Uvh php-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-manual-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-imap-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-ldap-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-mysql-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-odbc-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-pgsql-4.0.6-15

I'm not an expert in using rpm so I'm probably doing something completely
wrong???

Re: [PHP] Proposal for securing PHP sessions

2002-09-08 Thread Chris Shiflett

I think you are definitely on the right track here, though I 
unfortunately haven't had time to look at your code (thus, I'm just 
going by your description).

Due to frequent vulnerabilities found in Internet Explorer's cookie 
handling (versions 4.0 - 6.0 allow anyone to view cookies from any 
domain, regardless of the cookie's characteristics), cookies should be 
considered public by any system attempting to be secure. Meaning, if 
both your key that you describe as well as the session ID are stored in 
cookies, a compromise of both these cookies opens you up to a 
presentation attack. This does not require the attacker to sniff the 
HTTP traffic in any way, so even the use of another security method such 
as SSL does not prevent this type of attack.

Instead, you should consider some sort of combination approach, where 
you utilize both URL variables and cookies. URL variables are quite 
exposed (and can be revealed with the Referer HTTP header), so you want 
to make the exposure of this by itself useless to an attacker. At the 
same time, you want a cookie compromise to not compromise your entire 
mechanism. By requiring both types of attacks, you at least make a 
compromise more difficult and therefore slightly strengthen what you've 
already got.

Hope that helps. Happy hacking.

Chris

Dear all:

Until I read the article PHP Session security
(http://www.webkreator.com/php/configuration/php-session-security.html)
I haven't noticed how insecure PHP Sessions are.



Basically there're 2 problems: 

*) It's possible to hijack a session if you know the
SID (session id)

 1) If you're on a shared server (cheap webhosting)
other users can get the SIDs by doing ls /tmp/sess_*
(/tmp/ is defined on session.save_path on the config
file, so it may be different).

 2) When a user clicks on an external link, the
browser sends the REFERER url and sometimes it
contains the SID (if session.use_trans_sid is enabled)

PHP offers a security measure: with
session.referer_check it will reject SIDs comming from
other referers, but the referer url can be easily
forged.

*) Users can read session data from the session files,
which are owned by the server process (every user
which has an account on the webserver can read server
owned files)

(If you're intrested in the subject I would recommend
to read full the article:
http://www.webkreator.com/php/configuration/php-session-security.html)

I have developed some functions to avoid this
problems. They replace the standard session functions
(using session_set_save_handler), so you only have to
include the file at the beggining of your script and
(afaik) you're safe :)

This is the idea:

Apart from the session cookie, I set another one (with
the same name and the string '_sec' appended). On this
cookie I set a random KEY.
The name of the file which contains the session data
is the md5 hash of the SID and the KEY together. This
turns impossible to guess the session id by looking at
the filenames.

To hide the data inside the file, the serialized
string is crypted using the KEY as password, so nobody
can see the content of your user's sessions.

You can find the code here:
http://www.n3rds.com.ar/files/docs/php_sessions/sess_handler.txt

Im looking for suggestions to make it 100% compatible
with the standard session functions, and I would like
to hear some thougts about the idea

Re: [PHP] Upgrading PHP on Redhat

2002-09-08 Thread Jan Kudrman

Hi David,

you should start by checking your current php instalation:

# rpm - qa | grep php

This will show you all packages which contains php. It will be something
like following:
php-4.1.2-7.2.4
php-manual-4.0.6-15
php-imap-4.0.6-15
php-ldap-4.0.6-15
php-mysql-4.0.6-15
php-odbc-4.0.6-15
php-pgsql-4.0.6-15

Now you know what packages you have installed on your system. Now go to Red
Hat web site to find all this packages - you should to upgrade all of them.
If you have Red Hat Linux 7.2, go to
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-102.html and find all of this
packages and download them. Be sure you are downloading rpms for your
version (ie. 7.2).

If you will have all these files downloaded, write the folowwing rpm command
whitch will update all of packages:

# rpm -Uv php-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-manual-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \
  php-imap-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-ldap-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \
  php-mysql-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-odbc-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \
  php-pgsql-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm

All the packages are on the one line. Something like following:
# rpm - UV package_1 package_2 ... packege_n

By this way you will update all the packages and there shouldn't be any
dependencies error.

If yes, please let me know. I'm not an expert for Red Hat Linux but I am
yousind this distribution and I am doing it by this way... and it's works
for me.

Best regards,
Jan

Re: [PHP] Re: turn register_globals on

2002-09-08 Thread Brad Bonkoski

Does this work for the original poster?

Does not work for me (of course I am going the opposite way, wanting to
test scripts one-by-one to verify they work with register_globals off)
running: ini_set(register_globals, 0);
(and, tried both) ini_set(register_globals, Off);

According to the docs it says:
register_globals   0PHP_INI_PERDIR|PHP_INI_SYSTEM
Stating that this variable can only be changed in .htaccess, or php.ini

It does seem to return the correct value, but it does not make the same
changes to my script that setting this value to Off in php.ini does.

So, is this allowable to set in user scripts?  Or is the dosumentation
correct in saying it cannot?

Re: [PHP] How to program very basic chat on PHP?

 Hi Mig,

 to create something that behaves more like a true chat, you
 need an active client side.
 For example, you could let a frame with the PHP be reloaded in a
 short interval.

 To create a real chat, you need a socket connection. The best
 solution would be Flash (which has great functions for that).
 Java is another option.

 Timo

Hello Timo, thanks very much. I don't know flash, but do you think Flash
5 has this option also?. I read a basic Flash manual and didn't find
some feature for 'sockets' or something else.
For Java, I know a very basic programming of it, I will try study more
of it to understand socket functions.

Thanks all of you for your responses.

The app, is that your PHP script? Or is it the LDAP library (PHP is

try to authenticate and search with ldapsearch or similar tool and
see if it happens then?

Re: [PHP] How to program very basic chat on PHP?

2002-09-08 Thread Justin French

An extremely basic chat would be a frame or iframe which has a meta tag
refresh (or javascript refresh) of a plain HTML page every 10-20 seconds.

As far as the flash stuff goes, have a look at macromedia.com or the 1000's
of flash sites... I'm positive you'll find some development tools for a
pre-built chat room that you can modify.  I'm certain I got one of
macromedia.com a few years back (flash 4 days i think).

[PHP] Problems with GD 2.0.1

2002-09-08 Thread Ville Mattila

Hello everyone,

I should get GD 2.0.1 installed to my PHP 4.2.2 binary running as a module
in the Apache 1.3. The box is RedHat 7.3. There is a previous version of GD
(1.8.4) installed as a default and it seems that I can't even get ereased it
due to depencies. Anyway, I'd need that GD 2.0.1 due to some functions
previous versions of GD don't have at all.

I explored the PHP manual and found this little help:
http://www.php.net/~rasmus/gd.html. Wonderful, or not! I followed those
items in the Rasmus' file step by step, but still without results. I tried
to build PHP with make clean (that was only way when the configure changes
really affected to the configure command on phpinfo() -function) and then
all steps. But no... My PHP script is still shouting Warning:
imagecreatetruecolor(): requires GD 2.0 or later. Grr...

My current PHP build is configured with following string:
'./configure' '--with-mysql' '--with-apxs=/etc/httpd/bin/apxs' '--with-curl'
'--with-gd=/usr/local/gd-2.0.1' '--with-xml' '--enable-ftp'
'--enable-sockets' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--enable-gd-native-ttf'
'--enable-gd-imgstrttf' '--with-zlib' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr'
'--with-png-dir=/usr'

Well. Any ideas?

Ville

By the time your script is read register_globals has already done it's

Re: [PHP] Upload Progress

2002-09-08 Thread Jed Verity

Yikes, I sort of lied. It's been awhile...

Clients uploaded files from an intranet server to an external servier via
their browser and ftp_put. It wasn't local machine to remote server.

Sorry! Best of luck,
Jed

P.S. I wonder, though, if there isn't some way to execute a script with
exec() to get the info through the file system. There was some talk awhile
back about using flush(), too. If you haven't already, check the archives
for that one...

 There really isn't a great solution for this, that I know of. It's one of
 the few things that makes an argument for ASP over PHP, as far as I'm
 concerned (if you have the luxury of choosing). Below is what I did once to
 try to get around the problem. It worked *okay*.
 
 The bummer is that I had to ask people to enter the size of their file in a
 field. (Rough estimates were okay.) Then, as soon as somebody hit the submit
 button on my form, I popped up a small, modal, progress bar sized window
 that was actually two frames. I passed the file size value from the form
 field to the top frame. In the bottom frame, JavaScript created a bordered
 div equal in pixel length to the number of MB of the file being uploaded.
 The top frame, a PHP doc, would then refresh every three seconds, executing
 a filesize() on the uploaded file, converting it to MB, rounding up, and
 then using DHTML to resize the width of a blue-gradient gif contained in the
 div of the bottom frame of the progress bar window.
 
 Typically, this worked okay for me. It wasn't the prettiest progress bar in
 the world, but it did the trick for most people.
 
 HTH!

 display the progress of the upload so that it doesn't appear as if the
 browser has frozen for a few hours.
 
 Any suggestions for a solution?

One trick for using old PHP code is to use

extract($HTTP_POST_VARS);

...at the beginning of your script.  That will autocreate all the POST
variables for you.  Works for GET and others, too.
