[PHP] Re: magic quotes

2003-04-02 Thread Foong
Hello,

When magic_quotes_gpc is on, addslashes() will be automatically applied on
all data from GET, POST, COOKIES by PHP.

When magic_quotes_runtime is on,  addslashes() will be automatically applied
on all data collected form database (ex: when you execute a SELECT
statement). Therefore when  magic_quotes_runtime is on, you need to use
stripslashes() on data colected from database. It is not only apply to data
collected from database, others as well. I believe there is a details guide
in the php documentation at php.net.

[PHP] *Umlauts/UTF-8

2003-04-02 Thread Alexey Lysenkov
Hello,

I am having a problem with umlauts in utf-8 encoded txt file, which is 
being read by my script. Instead of umlauts I get ? or squares or 
anything else, but not those umlauts. What is the problem, can anybody 
help, please?

Thanks.

ps. I've chosen utf-8, because I have to have Western European _and_ 
Cyrillic characters on the same page. utf-8 seems to be the only 
encoding to let me do that.

pps. originally posted at php.lang, but it seems that no one lives there 
anymore :-/

Yes, assuming that's the name and location of the
CLI or CGI PHP (and one exists).  Typing 'whereis php'
or 'which php' in bash should help.  Also, it might
be called something else so try names like php4 too.

> Note that any errors will be chucked back to the terminal in HTML.

Sometimes this is true, depends on the html_errors directive
which defaults to OFF in CLI.  CLI is the wave of the future,
CGI is so old school :)

This means you essentially ran addslashes() twice before
insertion.  Don't do that.  You should never ever have to 
strip slashes from data already in the database.

No, only add slashes once.  Do this with a function like
addslashes() OR do it magically.  Once.

Defaults to on so I guess that's "normal".  See also

PHP can run as a script indeed.

#!/usr/bin/php

Do that like you would perl and then make it executable. Should work.

Note that any errors will be chucked back to the terminal in HTML.

[PHP] magic quotes

2003-04-02 Thread Justin French
Hi all,

Can I just have a quick head check on magic quotes runtime (&gpc)?

I have them both set to Off currently, and my pages work fine.  However,
when I set them to on, I end up with slashes throughout the mysql data.

Is this the expected behaviour?  Seems counter-intuitive to me, but I've
never really cared about it 'till today, because i've never had a problem!!


What is a common setting for these two directives, so that I can have my LAN
server *reasonably* "normal".

That faq mentions that if only a directory is listed from phpinfo()

  /usr/local/lib/

There are a few options.  The easiest is to just put a php.ini
in the directory it lists.  Or, you could set the PHPRC environment
variable, or you could use the --with-config-file-path option
during compile.  Search around for more information on these
options.

Re: [PHP] chill out

2003-04-02 Thread Tim Thorburn
Hi,

I'd have to agree with the original poster on this topic - I've been on 
this list for about 3 years now, at times it is helpful - and then there's 
every other day.

Granted, there are guru's out there that know all there is to know about 
PHP, and then there's the new kid that has no idea what it is, but either 
wants to learn or has to learn.  And it is quite possible that not everyone 
is as adept at finding information online - if you're new to server-side 
programming languages in general - how or why would you know of the great 
many repositories of information available online?

Sarcasm is one thing, gawd knows I use it on a by the minute basis ... but 
when a newbie posts a question that may seem simple to some - yet utterly 
impossible to others, is it constructive to tell them to go back and RTFM 
in a violent manner?  Suggesting that they review the manual again may 
help, or better yet - if you think it's not worth your time, that's what 
the trash can button is for.

In general, I've had great luck with this list - it just seems the majority 
of puter ppl don't have super ppl skills ;)

Now back to work

Re: [PHP] chill out

2003-04-02 Thread Chris Blake
My two cents,

I`ve  been on the list a month now and I think it`s really cool that
this type of thing exists.

I`m new to PHP, read all the posts that come through, and 98% of the
time don`t have a clue what is being spoken about, so the flaming and
other comments provide a welcome relief from my daily stress of working
this PHP thing out.

I learned the ins and outs of the list by reading all the posts, so I
guess this has helped me do my homework before simply requesting someone
give me an answer to a problem I could have solved simply by RTFM.

Anyone who can`t handle sarcasm.well.that`s another thing

Not exactly true.  unset() destroys the reference to the value, not the
value itself.  For instance,

error_reporting(E_ALL);
$var1 = "foo";
$var2 = &$var1;
print "$var1\n$var2\n\n";
unset($var1);
print "$var1\n$var2";

will output:

foo
foo


Notice:  Undefined variable:  var1 in PHPDocument1 on line

foo

In other words, unsetting $var1 will NOT destroy $var2.

Basically it keeps track of the active sessions for the total user #,
and then determines how many of those sessions are 'logged in'

PHP deletes any variable which is no longer referenced in memory.. So in
this case the first object that the variable $object pointed to will
automatically be destroied. If you want to force a variable to be
destroied, just unset() it.

So No it's not possible to "orphan" any object or variable in PHP.

[PHP] Deleting Objects

2003-04-02 Thread trlists
How does one delete an object?  For example:

$object = new Class(...);
.
$object = new Class(...);

I want to throw away the old object and create a new, freshly 
initialized one using the same variable.  Is the above adequate or will 
this orphan the first object?  If so is an unset($object) prior to the 
second "new" the appropriate approach?

Thanks,

 --

It's using default settings.  You'll have to recompile PHP to change 
where it looks for php.ini, or you can move your php.ini file into that 
location.

[PHP] asynchronous processing?

2003-04-02 Thread Seairth Jacobs
I want to POST data to a server and get back an immediate response.
Independently, I want the action to cause the server to submit its own POST
request to another server.  I do not want the original POST to block while
waiting for the second POST to complete.

I recently read an article [1] that said that register_shutdown_function was
not capable of doing this (it causes the original request to block) and that
a new function called apache_register_shutdown_function would allow this.
Unfortunately, I don't see my host upgrading to 4.3.1 anytime soon (assuming
that the function is even in that version).

So are there any alternative methods?

Before PHP 4.2.0 the default value for register_globals  was on. And, in 
PHP 3 it was always on. The PHP community is encouraging all to not rely 
on this directive as it's preferred to assume it's off and code 
accordingly.

RE: [PHP] trying to write sql query as a function

2003-04-02 Thread John W. Holmes
You need to call it such as:

$variable = query("field","table");

Where $variable is an arbitrary name and is what you'd later use in the
mysql_fetch_*() functions...

[PHP] Phorum 3.4.2 Released - SECURITY NOTICE

2003-04-02 Thread Brian Moon
Today, we released another bug fix for the Phorum 3.4 branch, version 3.4.2.
Among other things, it fixes a Cross Site Scripting Vunerability. Here is
the changelog:

Phorum 3.4.2 Changelog

More Postgres fixes. (tomaz)
better date formatting for newer Postgres verions. (tomaz)
Attempted to fix new flag issue. Could never duplicate, but found some buggy
code. (blm)
added script to clean up orphaned messages (blm)
fixed disabling post-editing for users in non-threaded (ts)
removed unneeded escape of ' in forum.php (blm)
replaced striptags with a preg. Strip tags does not strip just tags (blm)
Fixed some bad HTML in read.php (blm)
Fixed horiz scroll in IE (blm)
fixed tab order in form.php (blm)
removed \r in secure script (blm)

Strip tags and   from author, subject and email (blm)

That last item is what addresses the recent XSS exploit reported in the

released something when I fixed that a while back.

[PHP] trying to write sql query as a function

2003-04-02 Thread scott
hi

I'm trying to write a simple MySQL query in a php function so that I can
just call it and pass arguments, but I'm missing something :o(

there are 2 files, index.php and common.php, commom.php contains all the
functions, and is included at the beginning of index.php

the first function called in index.php is db_connect, which calls the
function to create a connect to the MySQL database, this would seem to be
working correctly

the second part (here's where I crap out) is the actual query. the function
is written as follows

function query($strField, $strTable) {
 $sql = "select $strField from strTable";
 $result = mysql_query($sql);
 return $result;
}

I call it with query(my_field, my_table) for example, and I would hope it
would return $result back to the calling page for further us, but the rest
of index.php

   print "";
   while ($line = mysql_fetch_row($result))
   {
  foreach ($line as $value)
   {
 print "$value";
   }
mysql_close($my_conn);
print "";

simply renders an empty list box :o( if I take the code out of a function
and place it in index.php like this

 $sql = "select my_field from my_table";
 $result = mysql_query($sql);
   print "";
   while ($line = mysql_fetch_row($result))
   {
  foreach ($line as $value)
   {
 print "$value";
   }
mysql_close($my_conn);
print "";

then it works fine ?? what am I missing here ?

Yes... make your connection, select the first database, do your insert,
select the second database, and do your final insert. Isn't rocket

[PHP] Nested select options from database.

2003-04-02 Thread Krista
Hi everyone,

Is it possible, using just PHP, to pull a select menu from a DB, then when
the person makes a selection have it populate a second drop down select
menu, and again for a third one?  Would javascript need to be involved here
to keep it all on the same page?

I'm in pretty desperate need of some code that can do this to select
categories for products to go into, and I'm not sure how to make it work.
There are way too many categories to have top level, second and third in the
same drop down anymore - we only want people to be able to add the products
to the third level.

Your assumption is way wrong.  $_GET will only contain data that actually 
passed through a GET-method request.  Decoding a URL-encoded string 
doesn't suddenly make it GET data.  It will simply create entries in your 
global symbol table, or alternatively you can pass a second argument which 
is an array it will put the data into.  As per the docs.

Repost because no one replied originally.  Are there any other lists

disappointed in this one because I thought this was a fairly easy
question for those who have been working with php for a while.
I have the following issue between my html forms and php scripts.

Html file (input.html) looks like this:

 
 

Php file (input.php) looks like this:

I can input text (i.e. superman) and then click submit.  The resulting
php page returns:
supermanttt=superman

It seems to me that it must be something in the php.ini file 
that needs
to be changed, but I can't identify what exactly.  Any help would be
appreciated.

php 4.2.2

registered_globals is off by default in your version of PHP (its in the 
release notes)

so, try replacing your echo statement with

echo $_POST['ttt'];

and see if that helps.

There's nothing tricky about it. Just do the database insert and then send
the email. I suggest returning a simple success/failure from the database
insert so that if it fails you can note that in the email (probably going to
a site administrator). I build strings for $subject, $headers and $message
(from the values that were used in the insert) like so:

$message = "SUBMITTED:\n\n";
$message .= "First name: $first\n";
$message .= "Last name: $last\n\n";
$message .= "Address: $address1\n";
if ($address2 != "") {
$message .= "Address: $address2\n";
}
etc.

Then send it and report failure or success to the user like so:

if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]("$send_to_name<$sendto>", $subject, $message, $headers)) {
// report failure to send confirming email
} else {
// thanks for submitting
}

I wrote some code that might be what you want. It was for a reference 
download system. Here is what it does :

1. Scans a directory for all sub-directories
2. Scans those subdirectoties for files
3. Creates a drop down box with the appropriate categories (sub dir name 
), and file listing.

You can see it in action at http://www.meidomus.com

Let me know if this is what you were after and I will post the code. Its

Can't be done. 

You can investigate the use of client-side scripting.

*can't* do it with PHP, but ...

If this is a real priority, you can write some sort of ActiveX component 
that you can use to upload. However, you will have to ask the client for 
security permissions, since client apps do not have access to the remote 
file system (for good reason).

Either that, or you can write a Java applet to do it.

Bottom line, no way to do it with PHP, but if you really want it done, 
look to other languages.

a tons of times.  well, today when i typed php -v it told me that version 4.2.2 was 
the one that was installed.  so apparently my installing has not been taking the place 
of the old one.  

The original root is that the original compile of php (not done by me) was installed 
w/out mysql and i need mysql for what i'm working on.

now that i know the problem here, any suggestions?

I'm running apache for what i'm working on, tomcat for other things that this server 
does, and the latest version of mysql

now how do i get rid of hte old php and make sure this new one goes into its place?

P.S.- i'm not a total linux newb but i'm not, NOT a newb either.

Re: [PHP] So many functions!

2003-04-02 Thread Richard Baskett
What I would do is first read a cookie that you set on the clients machine
that follows the accept language guidelines.. so just the first two letters
then if that is not set, then take the browsers languages
$HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE and use them.

So instead of english you would have 'en', espanol = 'es', german = 'de'

$lang["en"]["category"]

So you just take that one variable and it will know which array to use..

You haven't convinced me either. Changing the included CSS file, if you're 
using CSS-P for your layouts, lets you re-use *all* of your PHP code. 
Including extra files for templates in sub-directories sounds like a 
terrible waste of server space to me. Plus, once you've created the CSS 
files, the rendering overhead is shifted to the client, saving your server 
the extra processing for a template. And as for better thinking, CSS-P lets 
me debug a lot faster because the individual sections are truly modular in 
both the PHP code and the finished output.

I was hoping for some convincing reasoning for using Smarty templates over 
CSS, but "code re-use and future changes" aren't doing it for me since I 
get both of those in spades with CSS-P.

[PHP] Problem with PHP and MySQl after install

2003-04-02 Thread Don
1) Installed MySQL 4.0.12

2) Installed PHP 4.3.1
One of my config options was --with-mysql=shared,/usr

3) added the following to /etc/ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig:
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/lib/mysql

4) When I try to run phpmyadmin, I get the following error:
cannot load MySQL extension,
please check PHP Configuration.


5) Looking at the explanation of the errro still leaves me baffled on how to
proceed:
[1.20] I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP
Configuration".
To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions called
"MySQL extension". This extension may be part of the PHP server
(compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded dynamically. Its name is
probably mysql.so or mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension but
failed.

What was I missing fom my install that is causing my problem?

Thanks,
Don

Re: [PHP] Html forms to php scripts

2003-04-02 Thread CPT John W. Holmes
It's an Apache 2 / PHP bug. I think if you use $_POST['ttt'], you'll get the
correct value, but I'm not sure. Try turning register globals off or using a
stable version of Apache that works with PHP (the 1.3 series).

Re: [PHP] Warning Extract

2003-04-02 Thread Andy
logname is not in my database.
It is a session variable used to hold the members login name.
In the form it is session_register('logname'); which is then set to a
variable with this code:
if ($num2 > 0) { // password is correct
   $auth="yes";
   $logname=$fusername;
   $today = date("Y-m-d h:m:s");
   $sql = "INSERT INTO login (username,loginTime)
   VALUES ('$logname','$today')";

does that make any sense?

I'm pretty sure that this is an Apache 2 problem that's fixed in a later version of 
PHP and/or Apache.  Try searching the bug database for more details.

[PHP] Can php run as a script?

2003-04-02 Thread Poon, Kelvin (Infomart)
Hi,

This might be a newbie question but I can't find an answer anywhere I
search.  I know php can be excuted by a web browser, but can it run as a
script like Perl?

The reason i ask is, I need to write a php script that updates a database in
a server.  And this script needs to be running in the background as a
service, that's why i was wondering if I can excute it like a perl script.

If it can't, do you guys know if I can use perl to call up a php script?

Please advise.

Thanks,

[PHP] Warning Extract

2003-04-02 Thread Andy
Help AGAIN!!!

Thank you for all the help so far, i am close to getting this members
section working correctly now i think!
I think i would have given up by now if it were not for the help i get from
you all, thank you.

I have a warning that i don't understand:
Warning: extract() expects first argument to be an array in
/home/.sites//New_member.php on line 23

I also find that although i get through to the new members page OK when
filling in the form it does not write to the mysql database with the new
details, yet if i enter a username that already exists it tells me, so the
php and mysql must be interacting.

Here is the code for the warning message, hope it helps:

$connection = mysql_connect($host, $user,$password)
   or die ("Couldn't connect to server.");
$db = mysql_select_db($database, $connection)
   or die ("Couldn't select database.");
$sql = "SELECT name FROM members
   WHERE username='$logname'";
$result = mysql_query($sql)
   or die("Couldn't execute query 1.");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC);
  extract($row);
  echo "

Before sending: javascript that prevents this on sending or even while 
typing.  Check the javascript form faqs on www.irt.org for this.

After sending:

Detect spaces with
if (!(strpos(' ', $string)===false) {ECHO "bloody idiot, i told you not to 
do that. Stupid User!";}

In PHP you can remove spaces at start and end of the entry with trim(...).

Remove all spaces in a string with $string=str_replace(...) (replace " " 
with "").

 (see manual www.php.net/manual  for proper use of these functions.)

Re: [PHP] $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]

2003-04-02 Thread Jason Sheets
It isn't always possible to get the visitor's real IP address, if the 
user's traffic is proxied the REMOTE_ADDR will be the proxy IP address, 
some proxies set the forwarded for header but for security and privacy 
some do not.

If you are not being directed through a proxy REMOTE_ADDR does show the 
real user IP address.

Also be aware dns lookups are expensive, rather than resolving their ip 
address when they visit you should consider resolving them when you need 
them in host format.

Jason

John wrote:

Makes me think.. what exactly the $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] is doing

Cause it does not really show the actual IP address instead IP address
within its range
e.g. 66.87.25.122
output 66.87.25.2
any idea how to get their actual IP add and if possible the name of their
computer
Also, is it also possible to get or trace the IP add?

I have a script that needs to open a remote file on another Web

protected, and if so, prompt the user for username and password to 
open it?

Thanks.

Can't be done. 

You can investigate the use of client-side scripting.

yes, of course they can ... but i'm looking for a way to automate the
process for them (a method which may not exist) .. i suppose i can give them
the option to upload multiple files using multiple input fields, but I'd
