[PHP] Re: file not opening in internet explorer

[John Taylor-Johnston]

I had a similar problem Perling once. The server sometimes has default CHMOD settings. 
I suspect the default is "rw--". You may have to CHMOD your file in your script 
yourself to overcome this.

>the file permissions are "rw-r-r"

Are you sure :) Use your command line and check the CHMOD.

I cannot reach http://192.168.0.1/bdoi_change/sundar.html myself. My money is on: 
"rw--"

Rasmus,

If I were going to remanufacture http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php I 
would add/edit:

$data = "foo:*:1023:1000::/home/foo:/bin/sh";
list($user,$pass,$uid,$gid,$gecos,$home,$shell) = explode(":",$data);

echo $user."".$pass."".$uid."".$gecos."".$home."".$shell;

Thanks again.

HTH?

Yes I do. I need to learn a little more about declaring arrays & its syntax.

I figured I was declaring an array called "list". Then ... :) Copied & tinkered from:

What is $list supposed to be?  You probably want just $db and $table

1 --x execute

3 -wx write and execute 
4 r-- read 
5 r-x read and execute

Re: [PHP] Wrong version displayed after upgrading to php-4.2.3

[Rasmus Lerdorf]

Did you move things around after installing Apache?  The apxs program
needs to know where these various Apache files are.  Somehow your apxs is
out of synch with where your files actually are.  Either re-install using
whatever mechanism you use or edit your apxs script and teach it about
your paths.

No, in almost all cases it is wrong to have "lib" or "include" in a --with

You have a $1, which is not valid unless it's inside a "replacement"
string. It's not where you have it.

Anyway, you need an 'e' modifier to make this work. Use these two lines:

  $pattern = "/\^(\d)/e";
  $replacement = '$color[$1]';

Re: [PHP] Sessions Timing Out Too Often

[Justin French]

Did you look in the manual first?  Didn't think so.

php.net/session
first search result is http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php

There are two PHP.ini settings you should look at:

"session.gc_probability specifies the probability that the gc (garbage
collection) routine is started on each request in percent. Defaults to 1.

session.gc_maxlifetime specifies the number of seconds after which data will

if you can't change the settings yourself in php.ini (or ask the host to),
then i'm 99% sure they can be over-ridden on a per-directory basis using a
.htaccess file (apache assumption here).

Something like (guess):


php_flag session.gc_maxlifetime 1440



Of course, all this was available by:

a) searching the manial
b) searching the archives, where this gets asked weekly

Re: [PHP] running code on my machine wile serving other domain?

[Jason Sheets]

It is possible but not always a good idea.

First every time they go to the application it will have to load the
code off the Internet, that depends on your site being up and it will
introduce a lot of latency into your program.

Additionally a lot of people are not happy about applications phoning
home or automatically downloading code (some people flat out will not
run code that automatically downloads other code because they can not
guarantee the security of your web host which opens them up).

Rather than trying to hide the source code from them by putting it on
your server either encode it with Zend Encoder or another encoder or
preferably get an attorney and get a good license worked out that
legally binds them.

Re: [PHP] security issues on shared servers

[Jason Sheets]

If your hosting provider has enabled safe mode then others can not
include scripts that have a different uid than the owner of the current
script, that prevents them from including your code.

As far as the files go you could checksum them or if you are honestly
concerned about them being changed store them in your database where
only you have write access, the problem with that is that for your
application to connect to your database it must know the db password, if
the other users have shell access they can read your applications source
code and connect to your db as your application.

Bottom line, safe mode makes PHP a lot safer in multi user environments
but you are always going to be exposed when you go with a multi user
environment.

Any programming language/application encounters these problems when
introduced into a large multi user environment, switching programming
languages would not alleviate these security issues.

Or you can use the DATE_FORMAT() function in your query. 

SELECT DATE_FORMAT(Posted,'%m/%d/%Y') as F_Posted FROM Prayer

Then you can echo $row['F_Posted'] and it'll already be in the correct
format. Check the manual for the correct usage of DATE_FORMAT() (The
MySQL manual.)

Re: [PHP] Wrong version displayed after upgrading to php-4.2.3

[PathFinder Software]

Now I get a Config file error.

apxs:Error: Config file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf not found
make[1]: *** [install-sapi] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/mnt/System/php-4.2.3'

On my distribution I have the httpd.conf in the

As you can see I give the full path on the line:

Why am I getting this error?

You can change the session.gc_maxlifetime in php.ini to a larger value.
That is the number of seconds after which inactive session files will be
seen as garbage.

[PHP] Sessions Timing Out Too Often

[Monty]

I'm finding that my sessions seem to be timing out fairly quickly. For
example, in a little forum I wrote with PHP, people are telling me that if
they type a long message and click Submit, they are taken to the Login page
because their session obviously timed out, and they loose their posts in the
forum. I do have a "remember me" feature that uses a cookie, but, not all
visitors are using it, and they are the ones experiencing this problem.

Is there a way to extend session time, and is that the best way to reduce
this problem from happening to most members?

Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Block direct image loads but allow them in PHP

[Michael Mulligan]

So I implemented this the other day and got excited as it worked...sort of.
My code is very similar to the link that you suggested. This is the script
that I would call from within an :

if(isset($i))
{
//codeImageURL decodes $i into an image path that we can work with
$link=codeImageURL($i);
if($link!="" && (isAdmin() || !isThisFileBlocked($link)))
{
header("Cache-control: private");
header("Content-type: image/jpg");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$link);
$fp = fopen($link, 'r');
fpassthru($fp);
fclose($fp);
}
else
echo "Error: Couldn't decode image URL\n";
}

This code seems to work in *some* browsers, but not all. That is, in some
browsers, images will display just fine. In other browsers (i.e. Some
flavors of IE on the PC) I just get red x's. I cannot identify any
particular commonality among them and I was wondering if you have any
suggestions to make this work?

Thanks in advance!

Change your query:
select  dayofmonth(Posted) as DOM_Posted, 
month(Posted) as M_Posted, 
year(Posted)as Y_Posted, 
hour(Posted) as HH_Posted, 
minute(Posted) as MM_Posted, 
Name, 
Prayer 
from prayer

Then access the access the fields by the name (DOM_Posted).
$recSet = mysql_query($query);
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($recSet);
Access individual field:
$row['DOM_Posted'];
$row['M_Posted'];   
etc

OR
Use the php date (Don't know - haven't tried) functions to parse the
required values out of the Posted field.

[PHP] mysql select and date functions

[Sunfire]

i have a field in a table called Posted and it is a timestamp type
im using mysql and my page is supposed to take the timestamp field and show
it on the screen in the form of month#/dayofmonth/year
like 02/18/2003 the problem im having is trying to get it to be formatted..
i tried mysql functions like dayofmonth(Posted) month(Posted) and
year(Posted) in the query:
$query=mysql_query("select dayofmonth(Posted), month(Posted), year(Posted),
hour(Posted), minute(Posted), Name, Prayer from prayer");

this query works just fine but my question is now in php how to display the
results for dayofmonth(Posted) and so on further code follows:
while($view=mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
//display variables from query here...

//get to the date functions:
//$view[month(Posted)]/... doesnt work
//php complains about missing ] and this doesnt work
//either
while($view=mysql_fetch_object($query)){
//show variables here..

//show date fields in table...
//$view->dayofmonth(Posted) doesnt work either all i get
//in display is (Posted)
...rest of code here...

?>
and its strange because if i try: echo $view->dayofmonth(Posted); i get
parse error call to undefined function dayofmonth() in file.php on line
(line #)

any ideas on how to get this to work?

Hello, I was wondering if there are any native PHP functions that will

I have an issue where I would need to compare international characters, for

I could just create a function that would do this, and I already have ideas
about how to go about this, but before i start coding, i want to make sure
there isn't something that PHP does already that could replace what i'm
trying to do here.

Thanks

Re: [PHP] limiting characters

[Justin French]

Season to taste:

= $length) {
$i = 0;
$new = '';
while($i < $length) {
$new .= $words[$i].' ';
$i++;
}
if($suffix) {
$new .= $suffix;
}
return trim($new);
} else {
return $string;
}
}

$foo = "This is my really long string";

// EXAMPLES

// no change, since $foo is less than 20 chars (default)
echo chopper($foo);

// echos 'This is my ...' -- uses default suffix
echo chopper($foo,3);

// echos 'This is my [too long]'
echo chopper($foo,3,'[too long]');
?>

Re: [PHP] limiting characters

You can use the substr function:

$myoutput = "This is my sample output.";

$myoutput = substr($myoutput,0,10)."...";

RE: [PHP] script to check if server is up

[Luke Woollard]

Another useful idea is running a cron job (as root) every so often on each
machine that opens a socket connection to a port (eg. for www: 80)

If the socket connection returns false, you have a problem. You could then
reboot the service (in this case apache or similar).

I did this to check mysql was running on our old server.. It always seemed
to crash at awkard times...

Subject: [PHP] script to check if server is up


Hi
I have two servers on two different networks. I would like to implement
some sort of a watchdog application between the two to inform me should
either of the machines go down or has a connection problem.
I was thinking along the line of using a PHP script running from cron on
an hourly basis to "ping" the server as well as another server such as
google.com (they seem to be always up) and to only raise the alarm when
google can be reached, but NOT the other server.

My only problem is with the actual recognition of a "failed" ping, or
for that matter a successful one?

Can anyone give me some brain food as to the code for detecting a
up/down connection?

pseudo code:

make connection with server1
get result of connection_server1
make connection with google.com
get result of connection_google

if connection_google && !connection_server1
sms me
else
chill out


and a plus would be to do this ONLY if the result of the next cron-run
is the same, ie, don't sms me if the problem has been fixed within an
hour.
I just don';t know what to use to "make connection" and "get result of
connection"

Thanks.

[PHP] security issues on shared servers

[David Feldman]

I run a PHP-based Web site hosted on a shared UNIX server provided by a  
pretty standard Web hosting company -- as I imagine do many people.  
There are a lot of users on this server, and I know nothing about them.  
Apache (and thus PHP) generally runs as www or nobody, so although each  
user on this shared server has a separate account, all PHP scripts run  
as the same user. As such, I have a few security concerns:

1. I restrict access to certain portions of my site, either with  
.htaccess/.htpasswd files or with a PHP equivalent. This works fine for  
anyone using a Web browser, but it leaves a security hole: One can  
write a PHP script that circumvents the Apache access restrictions,  
either by calling a UNIX shell command (using passthru(), backticks,  
etc., only some of which are blocked on my server), or, more  
disturbingly, by using the include command. Using either of these  
methods in a publicly available page can circumvent htaccess- or  
PHP-based authorization and output the contents of a supposedly  
restricted file, _including_ a file in another user's Web site.

2. I am working on a PHP script that allows users to upload images,  
view them, and ultimately send them over email. All the problems listed  
in (1) apply, but in addition, these images' owner is www or nobody,  
the user PHP runs as. As such, not only could other users on the same  
shared server view these uploaded files, they could modify or delete  
them through a PHP script, and it doesn't matter what I set the access  
privileges to with chmod(), since they can call chmod() on the files  
themselves. Now, I can run a checksum at upload time and verify it  
later on to ensure that uploaded files haven't been changed. But that  
might still leave a few seconds (between upload and checksum) during  
which a file could be altered, and doesn't protect against deletions.

Both (1) and (2) are disturbing to me, since if I'm protecting a  
portion of my site I don't want several hundred random people (whose  
only qualification is that they purchased Web space at the same company  
I did) to have access to it. Is there any way, short of a dedicated  
server or a wholesale switch to another server-side language, to avoid  
these problems?

Thanks.

Thanks for the link. I added the following to my php.ini -
user_agent = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows 
NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212  

And it prevents any pages from being displayed. I copied that line
from the http_user_agent line in php_info. The php doc mentioned
above doesn't provide any info on the format of the user_agent line.
Obviously I'm doing it wrong. 
Suggestions?
Thanks

You changed the string to be "abcd\0f" on line 8. You didn't remove the
character, you set it to nothing.

If you want to remove the character instead... you have to slide
everything after it in the string back a place.

There are lots of ways to do this. For example,

$var = join("", split("e", $var));

will remove all instances of "e" from $var (I find this is the most
common manipulation of this type I want to do).

Joining together two string parts will also work.

$var = substr($var, 0, 4) . substr($var, 5, strlen($var));

ereg_replace() also springs to mind.

[PHP] Re: function getting redeclared

[Greg Beaver]

Hi Erik,

You may want to re-investigate using nested functions for this purpose, it
seems a bit illogical.  The main reason is that it clutters up the source.
If you want a private function, use docblock tag @access private to let
other users know that it should not be accessed directly, or wait for php 5
when you can declare a method to be private/protected.

Having said that, if you are still into nested functions, try using

if (!method_exists($this,'isValidPhoneNumber'))
{
..
}

[PHP] Using mail() function in php.ini (Unix/Linux)

[Scott Fletcher]

For those of you who don't know it or are struggling with the problem with
the slow sending of hte e-mail behind the firewall.  This problem doesn't
alway lie with the DNS itself.  The workaround to the problem is the
hostname resolution or the alias to the hostname.  Just open up the
/etc/hosts file using either vi or emac and add this ...   (Substitute the
term in the bracket for something else)

--clip--

--clip--

Do not use the dot between the hostname and the domain name.   Just like
this as you normally see in most host files




Enjoy.

Re: [PHP] Wrong version displayed after upgrading to php-4.2.3

[Jason k Larson]

if you did a 'make install' and didn't receive any errors, then I'd 
suggest making sure you restarted the Apache daemon, if that still 
resolves to the older version, then check the paths to the 
/path/to/apache/libexec/libphp.so

You can look at the date/time stamp of the file to determine if the 
PHPv4.2.3 install overwrote the older one successfully or not.  If you 
still have problems, then you might need to check the path you are 
giving to the --with-apxs for compiling PHP.

I suspect the previous PHP installation is still cached. Do a make

Use two different browsers, for example, both Mozilla and Netscape. The 
session cookie (with the session ID) is being shared by the two windows 
of your one Mozilla browser. Hence the confusion.

[PHP] Wrong version displayed after upgrading to php-4.2.3

[PathFinder Software]

Hi,

I upgraded PHP from 4.0.3pl1 to php-4.2.3 on my Apache/1.3.14
using 'apxs' and I did not received any errors during the
configure and make. The installation seems to have gone just
fine.

However, when I load a phpinfo.php document I get the 4.0.3pl1
version displayed???

What can be wrong and what test or steps do I need to perform to
correct this?

[PHP] Replacing JSP with PHP?

[Jiann-Ming Su]

Is it possible to replace JSP and use PHP to encapsulate our page rendering 
code?  We're running a java servlet that needs to be integrated with a PHP
front end.  I've given up on trying to run php as a java servlet.  I know
this is a strange request, but thanks for any tips.

Maybe you can str_replace or strtr (or some other similar function) to

[PHP] application security

Hey Everyone,

There have been a couple of threads lately about application security. A

one way of increasing security. I cleaned it up this morning and put it
up on my site if anyone is interested. 

http://robinsontech.com/articles/web_app_security.php

If you have any comments on it I would like to hear them. And a quick

Very weird - I thought RedHat would have enabled it too. I did

Anyway, maybe I should check the RH distro. Can you run the following

[PHP] escaping quotes for redisplay

[Erik Price]

Hi,

I am running into a problem, that I'm certain I've had before but for 
some reason don't remember how to handle.  If anyone can advise me on 
what to do here, that would be great.

I have a PHP script that accepts some user input and validates it, and 
if the validation fails, it re-displays the form.  In the form, the 
text fields' "value" attributes are set to the user's input so that the 
user doesn't have to fill everything out again.  The whole system works 
great, and I'm sure you've all seen it a hundred times before.

The problem happens when a user enters a single quote, such as in the 
string "O'Reilly".  Re-displaying this value in the "value" attribute 
of the form, like this:

  

is clearly invalid HTML, and it shows when the page is rendered in the 
user's browser (only the "O" gets through).

If I turn on magic_quotes_gpc or use addslashes, the output is like so:

  

And of course, when rendered, simply allows the "O\" to get through.

I can solve this problem by using double-quotes instead of 
single-quotes for my attributes, and that is probably what I'm going to 
have to do.  However, this means I can't let users enter double quotes, 
or the same thing will happen.  In other fields, double-quotes might be 
necessary.  Is there any other solution?

Thanks,

Erik

PS: I am using htmlentities() on the output before displaying it in the 
browser, but it doesn't apply to singlequotes.  I suppose I could 
str_replace it, but I'm wondering how other people handle this 
situation

[PHP] highlight_string for VB, CPP or .NET source code?

[stefen Lars]

Hello all

PHP offers the fantastic function ‘highlight_string’ to highlight PHP source 
code.

I was wondering whether anyone had written a function to highlight Visual 
Basic, CPP or .NET source code.

Alternatively, would anyone have any suggestions on how to write such a 
function. Ideally, the output of this function / these functions would look 
very similar to that of ‘highlight_string’.

Thank you in advance for any light that you could shed on this subject.

All the best

You can add a comment to your table with the COMMENT modifier, which

tables.

(In a table named "registrants", you could have the comment

  registrants.user_id = users.user_id

)

You want the tables and the relationships between them? Not easy to get

If you want a table, "DESC tablename".

If you want to capture the create statements for the tables, "mysqldump

You have to connect to MySQL with a username and password.

First check that the user you're connecting as has permission to do

HI all...

At last I got safe-mode turned off (Gott sei dank!). But I'm still having a 
problem.  I can only read Mysql DBs. I can not open a DB to update. 

All I can see is that there must be something wrong with either the way I 
complied PHP or the php.ini file. When I complied PHP I used "--with-mysql". 
Is this enough or do I need a dir name? If a dir name what?

Is there any special thing I need in PHP.ini to update mysql?

Lastly, how can I make PHP read php.ini without rebooting? 

BTW I'm using SuSE 8.1 Pro, netscape, and KDE.

Thanks,

JIM

Too many for my tastes.  Probably 8% of browsers have JS and cookies

Well, it kinda does, but as it doesn't limit the scope in any way 
there's
not really any point.  Besides, it can lead to the kind of problems 
you're

Okay, so PHP stores all functions that are not class methods in a 
global namespace?  Or does it even do this with methods?

Just curious so I don't depend on anything I'm used to from other

Well, you can always access the array elements using a
numerical index.  And you can use whatever method is
most convenient to set that index.  Alternately, you can
look into current() and next().

The key defensive step is to initialize all of your session variables at the
time you create them, like so:

$isAdmin = '';
session_register('isAdmin');

PHP will do the rest ;)

[PHP] Set Current Array Pointer

[Sascha Braun]

Hi Folks,

is it possible to set the pointer of an array to a specific
key or value of the array, so i can write an array navi-
gation script?

Maybe there is a way to use pos() to set it to a specific
place in the array, but i dont know how.

Please help me.

Re: [PHP] php.ini for UNIX sendmail????

[Scott Fletcher]

Well, okay, even with the '\r\n' path, I still have problem.   Here's the new script 
and I retested it.

--clip--
$message = "This is a test";

mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "the subject", $message,
"From: webmaster@$SERVER_NAME\r\n"
."Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\r\n"
."Reply-To: webmaster@$SERVER_NAME\r\n"
."X-Mailer: PHP/".phpversion()."\r\n");
--clip--

So far, I never got the email at yahoo and I never got the email at abcoa.com.

The latest survey I've seen indicates that about 11% of browsers have JS

About the same percent have cookies disabled.

Well, it kinda does, but as it doesn't limit the scope in any way there's
not really any point.  Besides, it can lead to the kind of problems you're
experiencing.  Just declare the two functions sequentially in your include
file.
