If I want to define a set of varibles ( two dimension array, eg : $func[0,0] )
and via the varibles of form tag ( format, eg : $_GET["varname"] or
$_POST["varname"] )...
How about the example ?

Re: [PHP] Javascript Src and HTTP_REFERER

[Joe Wollard]

I haven't tested this and it's off the top of my head so don't shoot  
me if I'm off track here ;-)


You could possibly use some embedded javascript to set a cookie with  
the current URL stored in it. This would be easy to spoof as well,  
but not quite as easy as appending ?site=xyz.


(shrug) just a thought

   'Return-path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' . "\r\n" .

6. PHP is a server side scripting language. Whatever processing PHP does

to go for JavaScript and ask the question in a JavaScript list.

Re: [PHP] Magic Quotes or Curley Quotes or Something

[Lance Earl]

Hi Marco,

Thanks for the help, you gave me a place to start. Before doing what would
amount to a lot of coding to correct this problem throughout my site I
wanted to see if it could be corrected on the server side.

I found the following section in the php.ini file:

; As of 4.0b4, PHP always outputs a character encoding by default in
; the Content-type: header.  To disable sending of the charset, simply
; set it to be empty.
;
; PHP's built-in default is text/html
default_mimetype = "text/html"
default_charset = "utf-8"
;default_charset = "iso-8859-1"

In the default file the iso-8859-1 line was commented out so I uncommented
it to see it that would help. It changed the unreadable goop to another
type of unreadable goop but the problem remained.

I then recommented the iso-8859-1 line and added the utf-8 line. This
changed the output back to what I had before. My thinking is that since my
code worked under the older version of php, it should also work under the
newer version if I can configure it correctly.

Thanks,

Lance

Re: [PHP] how to check http:// or https:// ?

[Matt Blasinski]

True, but if you check that it's equal to 'on' and it doesn't exist, 
you'll get a warning.  If you want to avoid the warning, check that it 
exists first.


Matt



I mean, if $_SERVER['HTTPS'] exists doesn't mean it's equal to 'on'
but if $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' IT MEANS $_SERVER['HTTPS'] exists

why then
if(isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on')

[PHP] PHP 5.0.4 on AMD64

[Joseph Oaks]

So, heres the deal, I'm running Fedora Core 3 on an dual proc AMD64 system.

I have compiled Apache 2.0.54, and PHP 5.0.4, when I try to start apache
I am given an error. The error is as follows...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] conf]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start
Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 24 of /opt/apache-2.0.54/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /opt/apache-2.0.54/modules/libphp5.so into server:
/opt/apache-2.0.54/modules/libphp5.so: cannot restore segment prot after
reloc:
Permission denied

The only thing I'm finding on google is about /usr/lib64 well I don't have a
/usr/lib64, its just /usr/lib so that can't be the issue.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.
thanks

$_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on'

[PHP] Re: Sending post data from a script

[Manuel Lemos]

Hello,

on 08/05/2005 04:33 PM Paul Nowosielski said the following:

I'm trying to setup a PHP script that will send a POST data request to a
web form. The script needs to be automatic and not driven by a web form.

For example.

I have a cron script that runs every 15 minutes. The cron script calls
my php script on the server and sends the important data to a web based
form without human interaction. The data has to be passed with the
method="post". Sending the data via a URL request does not suffice.

So my question in general is: How can I send HTTP POST data to a remote
interface without using an HTML FORM?.


You may want to take a look at this HTTP client class. Besides 
submitting POST form values, it also handles redirection and cookies if 
necessary.

As for why things like istringstream, etc. are useful, you can also head 
over comp.lang.c++ and ask...I, quite simply, have no interest in a 
debate or discussion I already know the final answer toi.e. it is 
useful.



btw do you think the functionality surrounding stream_wrapper_register()
will do it for you?


I don't see any reason why not at the moment.

I personally use PEAR's CS, and made that decision a little over a year
ago. I've never looked back, and code I've had to maintain that predates
that decision gets updated -- simply because it makes maintenance and
debugging a thousandfold easier.

D'oh! I was thinking this was an anonymous function (ala perl), and of
course it's not. Good catch, Jochem.

Thanks for the reply.  The problem I had - and that I was trying to 
briefly describe - is not quite explained by slow DNS lookup, at least 
not so far.  I have one script, run on the same machine:


takes less than 1 second on CLI:

# php gethostbyname.php
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.2

gethostbyname(www.imakenews.com) took 0.0010 s and resolved to 
208.254.39.65
gethostbyname(rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com) took 0.0005 s and resolved to 
63.87.252.162
gethostbyname(itpapers.zdnet.com) took 0.1922 s and resolved to 
216.239.113.159
gethostbyname(rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com) took 0.0005 s and resolved to 
63.87.252.162



Running CLI again, host names are apparently cached, because then they 
all return in .0005 seconds.


takes 20 seconds under Apache 2.0.46:

gethostbyname(www.imakenews.com) took 5.0071 s and resolved to 
208.254.39.65
gethostbyname(rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com) took 5.0099 s and resolved to 
63.87.252.162
gethostbyname(itpapers.zdnet.com) took 5.0097 s and resolved to 
216.239.113.159
gethostbyname(rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com) took 5.0099 s and resolved to 
63.87.252.162



This will happen consistently, with less than 1/100 s variation in time 
for each lookup.



Any DNS lookup tools are perfectly fast when run from the command line.  
Also, other machines in the same subnet, using the same DNS servers, 
using 99% same apache config files (I diff'ed 'em) run just as fast 
under same apache/php version as they do command line.  It's hard to 
imagine what external DNS problem could exist that would affect only one 
of our servers, and on that one, only apache/php and nothing command 
line.  Something else is going on, but my initial tries of 
downgrading/upgrading both php and apache haven't made a different yet.  
Perhaps you have another suggestion?
   



could you please mention the environment, i mean, the os, and the
versions of php? is it binary install or a compile?

 



All binaries - RH-packaged rpms.

Working version (takes < 1 second for each gethostbyname() call under 
CLI and under apache):


# rpm -qa | grep php
php-odbc-4.3.2-23.ent
php-imap-4.3.2-23.ent
php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent
php-4.3.2-23.ent
php-ldap-4.3.2-23.ent
php-mysql-4.3.2-23.ent
# rpm -qa | grep httpd
httpd-2.0.46-46.ent
redhat-config-httpd-1.1.0-4.30.2
httpd-devel-2.0.46-46.ent
# uname -r -o -i -s
Linux 2.4.21-4.ELsmp i386 GNU/Linux


Not working (takes 5 seconds for each gethostbyname() call under apache, 
but < 1 second under CLI):


# rpm -qa | grep php
php-imap-4.3.2-23.ent
php-4.3.2-23.ent
php-odbc-4.3.2-23.ent
php-mysql-4.3.2-23.ent
php-ldap-4.3.2-23.ent
php-pgsql-4.3.2-23.ent
# rpm -qa | grep httpd
httpd-2.0.46-46.ent

httpd-devel-2.0.46-46.ent
# uname -r -o -i -s
Linux 2.4.21-4.ELsmp i386 GNU/Linux


The function returns correctly, but it takes about 5 seconds every 
time.  After I run the script the first time on the "not working" 
machine, it looks like the names are cached for the CLI, as they tend to 
take only .0005 seconds to resolve.


Thanks for the help.

If you're willing to go the lengths of writing out a temporary file and the 
overhead
is the only thing that is stopping you, AND you are running on Linux, consider 
using
a tmpfs volume (RAM-based) and write your temp files there.  That should almost
eliminate any overhead of writing the file out.  tmpfs is flexible, as it grows 
(up
to a maximum you can set) and shrinks as necessary, and can even have its 
contents
paged out to the swap file if they haven't been accessed in a while.  Assuming
you've got the RAM to spare, setting one up is as simple as creating a 
directory and
adding an entry to /etc/fstab.  I've used tmpfs volumes for similar things in 
the
past with great success.  FWIW...

Ok.

I thought it might since PHP does apparently have some generic stream

Please see useful examples related to istringstream. A google search

You could always write an

that PHP has many built in string functions that it can probably
manipulate a string any way that you would desire.


As you have already stated, the PHP built in string functions are not 
directly capable of treating a string as a stream.


But thank you, it would appear that I will either need to write the

Matthew but it's perfectly valid to define a function inside an if()
block... It generally gets doen in apps where they have to support older

of php and conditionally define functions if they don't exist e.g.

For example, the C++ STL contains istringstream, which allows one to

If you are truly wondering why such functionality is useful and examples

That's because it shows up only if you are under HTTPS! :-)

RE: [PHP] String to Stream

Again, I would like to treat the string as a stream.

One possible way to accomplish this would be to simply write the string

However, I am assuming there is an easier way (i.e. a method without the

Treating a string as a stream (the most common thing is to convert a
stream to a string and work with the string using the string functions I
showed you or writing custom functions) is going to incur additioanl
overhead. What, exactly, do you want to accomplish? Can you give an

Keep going backwards.  It looks like maybe you've got an IF statement 
that you're not getting past.  Find where that is, and why it's 
evaluating to false.  If it's outputting *nothing*, then you're not 
evening reaching those echo statements.  Make a note after every IF 
statement, something like


echo "Inside if( this == that )";

So you know which blocks of code are being processed.

You have an encoding problem--the content is being uploaded to your site
using a different encoding mechanism (most likely utf-8) than the one you
use to display it. 

I'm not much of an expert in this area, but a couple of suggestions:

1. You're already outputting UTF-8 code from the looks of it, so a simple

Header ("Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8");

Or even adding this to your HTML code in the :



Should do it. Remember to also use htmlentities ($data, null, "utf-8"); to
properly encode the entities in your content.

2. Convert the text over from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1. I think you can use
utf8_decode, or you may have to go with the mbstring extension (not too sure
here, I'd just go ahead and convert everything over to UTF-8).

I'm sure some other people who have more experience with this stuff can give
you even more pointers, but this should get you started.

Cheers,


Marco

I recently upgraded my server. It is running Ubuntu Linux with PHP and

insertion to the database and later retrevial and display on a web page.

The problem I am having is that content which includes quotes is is not

Yes it is perfect, and provided this is a new session and we're going

(Step #1 when inserting or creating dynamic

queries that aren't working: print them out to make sure they are 
what you think they are.)  Is the category being incremented?





Yes, absolutely

You say you can go back, but you can't go forward.  





Actually no. In a new session, I can start and go forward page by 
page to the end of the questionnaire, advancing each stage perfectly, 
storing all values exactly as I'd expect.


The trouble starts if, during the process, the user hits the BACK 
button. At that point, user can reload the last page of questions, 
displaying the answers they gave. If the user makes changes, those 
changes get error checked but do not become part of the sql query. 
Also, user can not move forwards any more. So it's as the subject 
says - everything works...until they hit the back button, from which 
point the whole thing goes gablooey.


Look at the page source, is the


form action what it should be?





Yes

  Look at the form hidden variables (if


any) are they what you expect?




No. $cat remains what it was BEFORE the user hit the BACK button. 
However the questions dispayed are from the $cat which is in fact $cat-1

Where's the end to this elseif? You follow it immediately with the

if() blocks).

FW: [PHP] [NEWBIE GUIDE] For the benefit of new members

[Jay Blanchard]

=
Please feel free to add more points and send to the list. 
20050322jb - Note the new location of PHP Editors list.
=

1. If you have any queries/problems about PHP try
http://www.php.net/manual/en first. You can download a copy and use it
offline also. 

Please also try http://www.php.net/manual/faq.php for answers to
frequently answered questions 
about PHP (added by Christophe Chisogne).

2. Try http://www.google.com next. Searching for "php YOUR QUERY" may
fetch you relevant 
information within the first 10 results.

3. There is a searchable archive of the mailing list discussion at
http://phparch.com/mailinglists. Many of the common topics are discussed
repeatedly, and you may get answer to your query from the 
earlier discussions. 

For example: One of the repeatedly discussed question in the list is
"Best PHP editor". Everyone has his/her favourite editor. You can get
all the opinions by going through the list archives. If you want a
chosen list try this link :
http://www.thelinuxconsultancy.co.uk/phpeditors.php
(contributed by Christophe Chisogne).

4. Not sure if PHP is working or you want find out what extensions are
available to 
you?

Just put the following code into a file with a .php extension and access
it through your 
webserver:

 

If PHP is installed you will see a page with a lot of information on it.
If PHP is not installed (or not working correctly) your browser will try
to download the file.
(contributed by Teren and reworded by Chris W Parker)

5. If you are stuck with a script and do not understand what is wrong,
instead of posting 
the whole script, try doing some research yourself. One useful trick is
to print the variable/sql query using print or echo command and check
whether you get what you expected. 

After diagnosing the problem, send the details of your efforts
(following steps 1, 2 & 3) and ask for help.

6. PHP is a server side scripting language. Whatever processing PHP does
takes place BEFORE the output reaches the client. Therefore, it is not
possible to access users' computer related information (OS, screen size
etc) using PHP. Nor can you modify any the user side settings. You need 
to go for JavaScript and ask the question in a JavaScript list.

On the other hand, you can access the information that is SENT by the
user's browser when a client requests a page from your server. You can
find details about browser, OS etc as reported by 
this request. 
(contributed by Wouter van Vliet and reworded by Chris W Parker.)

7. Provide a clear descriptive subject line. Avoid general subjects like
"Help!!", "A Question" etc. Especially avoid blank subjects. 

8. When you want to start a new topic, open a new mail composer and
enter the mailing list address php-general@lists.php.net instead of
replying to an existing thread and replacing the subject and body with
your message.

9. It's always a good idea to post back to the list once you've solved
your problem. People usually add [SOLVED] to the subject line of their
email when posting solutions. By posting your solution you're helping
the next person with the same question. 
[contribued by Chris W Parker]

10. Ask smart questions http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
[contributed by Jay Blanchard)

11. Do not send your email to the list with attachments. If you don't
have a place to upload your code, try the many pastebin websites (such
as www.pastebin.com). 
(contributed by Burhan Khalid)

Following these guidelines will ensure that you get effective responses
from the list members. Otherwise, your questions might not be answered.

===
Hope you have a good time programming with PHP.

Does the documentation at php.net not suffice? It usually says when
particular functions were introduced/changed, e.g.:

http://www.php.net/pg_escape_string
pg_escape_string
(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5)

With this you shouldn't have any limit on how far back you can check,
unless I run into the limits of mysql. We'll see. Certainly more than
a day though, unless you are Google's webmaster!

As fot the image, that won't be a problem, but you will need to pass
the image through a script. That is no problem at all, I intend to
include instructions on how to do so as part of the documentation. Or,
you will need to parse your apache logs (or whatever server you are
on).

Re: [PHP] Exceptions: function x throws Exception

[Jochem Maas]

Dear Internals,

class FooBar { public function foo() throws Exception {} }
function fooFoo() throws Exception {}

this came up on php-generals and I wondered if anyone had time/cared
to comment if it (as it does to me) seems like a good idea and/or whether it is
technically feasable. My thinking was that one could then use the reflection API
to determine whether functions/methods are capable of throwing exceptions and or
what kind - might be quite handy when using third party apps/classes
(PEAR springs to mind.)

thanks and regards,
Jochem

Or is there another possibility to tell a function throws an exception
and to force the caller to handle that exception?

thanks in advance,

Hello Norbert,

The Java way doesn't work here. The best approach would be to simply run
a try/catch/finally around the call to your function/method, and inside
the function itself you do the following:

if (...) { throw new Exception("My message."); } }



indeed - bottom line is you have to know that a function/method/extension may
throw. mostly you do know because:

1. you wrote the code,
2. or it's documented in the extension manual pages
3. and/ro you hit an unacaught exception whilst developing.

my approach to cover any oversights is to wrap every thing in a main try/catch 
block
just in case - keeping in mind that the idea is that this 'main' catch block is 
never run
is al goes well.


Regards,
Torgny

Since you are presumably authenticating against a user table in the 
database, add a login_count field and increment it when the user logs in. 
That will track all your users. Then execute a query to fetch the data for 
a particular user. Hint SELECT COUNT() ...


If you want a profile of activity, add a separate table with timestamp, and 
user_id fields, the user_id having user.user_id as its foreign key. For 
each login, insert a record in this table, and as it's PostgreSQL you can 
set a trigger to automatically write the timestamp. Now you can track your 
usage profile by users, time of day, user and time of day  fun isn't it?

Re: [PHP] diplaying code in pages and forums ??

[Miles Thompson]

Well, it took about 5 min - checking the PHP site for "display" and then 
for "source".
That lead to the display_source() function, an alias for highlight_file(), 
which itself had a link for highlight_string(). These functions display PHP 
source with syntax highlighting.


It is a fine manual; please Read The Fine Manual.

Side note: Use of other's code, such as Exponent CMS, does not absolve one 
of the responsibility to understand the language, nor of the need to 
wrestle with these things on one's own. Did you know there was a whole 
thread within the last week on this v. issue?

Something like this perhaps:

$res = mysql_query($query);
$row = mysql_fetch_object($row)
if (preg_match("/\r$/",$row->textfield) {
   echo "Got CR";
} else {
   echo "No CR at end";
}


Just an example to help you on the way.

Diana Castillo wrote:

get the data out of the DB first. stick it in $myString




$myString = "wtf I fond a carriage return - horsedrawn even.\n";
if (preg_match("#[\n|\r|\r\n]$#", $myString)) {
echo "wtf I fond a carriage return - horsedrawn even.";
}

tip: using trim() on $myString will strip a trailing CR.
tip: want to allow blank spaces after the CR, use this regexp instead.
"#[\n|\r|\r\n][ ]*$#" e.g:

$myString = "wtf I fond a carriage return - horsedrawn even.\r\n   ";
if (preg_match("#[\n|\r|\r\n][ ]*$#", $myString)) {
echo "wtf I fond a carriage return - horsedrawn even.";
}


now can I have your roomkey? :-P


also if you want to know what \n and \r and \r\n are about then you might
start by searching for posts by Marco Tabini 3 days back on this list

shouldn't we be writing the necessary code for you? for nothing?

did you f***ing google for 'syntax highlighting php' or something similar?
and/or do you bother to read any of the posts made by other people of this list?
let me answer those last 2 questions for you - no you bloody well didn't - this 
topic
was covered not more than 3 days ago on the list - PHP has at least 2 functions 
made for the
very purpose (try using the like textbox at the top right hand corner of EVERY 
page on
www.php.net to find them) AND, now get this, php.net has a show source function 
(also on
every page) which allows you to see how they do stuff - the really 'crazy' 
thing is
you can even viwe the source of the script that is used to view the source .. 
right
there in your goddam browser.

with regard to displaying code - you'ree not the first to do - plenty of code 
out there,
in fact it took me 2 seconds to find a WordPress plugin that does exactly that 
-- you might
need to hack that code to make it work in your cms but heh, that's what its all 
about.

my 2 year old son say 'I want' less than a lot of people on this list, make an 
effort.

PS - any one guess I just started having a bad day?

Sure. If you have any features that you'd like to request, now's the
time! What stats, in particular, are you interested in? Do you have
mysql? What stats programs are you currently using, and how often do
you check them?

[PHP] Cannot pass data between forms when 'enctype' attribute is present

[MisterJingosSmile]

Hi and thanx for taking the time to read . . .

The issue I'm experiencing appears to be that I cannot pass data (values)
between forms when
the enctype="multipart/form-data" attribute is present in the form.
Commenting it out allows data
to pass but prevents uploading of files through the form.

As I am no expert at what I am doing (Apache/PHP/MySQL) I would really
appreciate any
pointers you would care to give.

I've been googling around and found an old post from someone who appears to
have the same
issue. It is here:

http://archives.neohapsis.com/archi...03-q4/0771.html

I have also made another post describing my issue in more detail here:

http://www.justlinux.com/forum/showthread.php?t=141885

Cheers.

RL> --with-pic is the default, so you don't need to add it.

When  I  at  first  confugured without "--with-pic" and then immediately
with "--with-pic" I got two different libphp4.so by filesize. If you say
there is no difference, what is nevertheless the difference?

The  question  apperead  since  I  heard  somewhere that "--with-pic" is
important  when  one  is  going  to  use PHP module with multiple Apache
instances...

[PHP] Re: overwrite private class members in php5?

[Norbert Wenzel]

* Norbert Wenzel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


Hi, I've done something like this:

class MyClass {

  private $var;

  function __construct($value) {
$this->var = $value;
  }

  public function printVar() {
echo($this->var);
  }

}

$object = new MyClass('1');
$object->printVar(); // prints 1
$object->var = 3; // Fatal Error as expected
$object->$var = 2; // no error msg



$var is empty, so this is setting a non-existent class property to 2.



$object->printVar(); // prints 2



I got 1 when running this -- just as I would expect. Are you sure it
printed 2?

Basically, if a property is undeclared, it is assumed public, so you can
set undefined properties without issue. If defined private or protected,
the calling script will not be able to alter the value.



i did write the script out of my mind, and didn't paste it. not the best 
idea, i know.
thanks for your help, i see my mistakes very clearly. forgive a noob for 
such question.


thanks,
norbert

Re: [PHP] login check

I think this is the way I need to write my if statement. 


if ( $min && $user[ "min" ] == $min && $user[ "pin" ] == $pin || $pin ==

try a couple paretheses to make your intension explicit. your if statement might
work the way you want it but I have no idea - and I'm way to lazy to go and look
up the operator precedence to work it out

if ($min && $user[ "min" ] == $min && ($user[ "pin" ] == $pin || $pin == 
'allow')) {
// you are okay to login
}



$min login name entered by the customer at the form. 
$user[min] is the login name from my sql db that matches $min

$user[pin] is the password from mysql db that matches $min
$pin is the password that is entered by the user

There's 4 checks
1) $min must have a value
2)  $user[ "min" ] must equal $min 
3) $user[ "pin" ] must equal $pin 
4) $pin == 'allow'


check 4 seems a little absurd - anyone who knows it will be able to login
as anyone on your app. also checking whether $user['min'] is equal to $min
_seems_ pointless because I assume that you had to extract the data from the
database somehow - usually this means using the login (i.e. $min) entered by
the user to do the look up.

lots of good reading here on security: http://www.phpsec.org/



I want it so that both 1 and 2 must be true and either 3 or 4 must be true. 
Will this if statement work?
