Re: [PHP] encrypted urls, mcrypt and mod_rewrite
Yes somehow in this case apache is treating the urlencoded string of a forward slash as a forward slash and so isnt matching the rule properly.

[PHP] File database, a href= works, but direct url access in address bar doesn't
I got a really weird and annoying problem:
I have a file database that people can access, depending of the file
status (pending, active, deleted) i allow access to it from different
people. For example, pending is available only to owner and admins,
active is avail to everyone and delete is not available anymore.
My problem starts here, i did a web page that looks like a file browser,
every file uploaded by the current user is diplayed there, its nothing
complicated, just a simple html list of the different folders and files.
If you click on the file's link it loads the content-type, filename,
reads the file and everything is sent to the user perfectly fine. Now if
i take the URL of the link leading to the file and copy paste it in the
same window's address bar, the download fails. For example:
http://dev.palliscience.com/dev_mvg/Palli-Sciences/file_explorer/file.php?element_id=8214
Works perfectly fine if its a link inside of the web site... BUT, if i
copy paste this URL in my address bar, it fails. This is no special site
with engines rewritting urls its a simple normal file by file website.
Some other clues:
When i click on the link, IE states the filename, contenttype and source
perfectly fine. When i copy paste the url, instead of seeing
magistra_recipes.sql
text/plain
dev.palliscience.com
i see
file.php?element_id=8113
text/plain
dev.palliscience.com
Both urls are the same but IE reacts differently...
Here is the code of the page... (Line returns may make the code strange

If your page is already displayed and you want to auto start a link, its
not done via PHP, its done via javascript to open a new window towards
one of those links. Nothing prevents you from outputting javascript
yourself from PHP, give it a try its really fun to build dynamic
javascript applications.

I think you can use anything except those types, like for instance application/octet-stream which is the default for binary files.

It can send custom POST requests. http://www.phpclasses.org/httpclient You are correct, setting the headers is necessary but I was already doing that, curl supports it by calling struct curl_slist *headers=NULL; headers = curl_slist_append(headers, Content-Type: text/xml); curl_easy_setopt(easyhandle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, headers); I have everything working at the moment by base64 encoding my data and then doing a urlencode. One pitfall I noticed: do not urlencode the post argument, only the data, eg: data=JtVLV43XWl... urlencoded data%3DJtVLV... This doesn't work, so I just urlencoded my base64 data, and prepended the data= string.

[PHP] Re: Reading binary http post
Hello, on 02/23/2006 02:55 PM Dirk Vanden Boer said the following: The problem is that you are misleading PHP telling that you are posting form data. You need to correct the request Content-Type. It must not be application/x-www-form-urlencoded nor multipart/form-data . I think you can use anything except those types, like for instance application/octet-stream which is the default for binary files.

If you are sure that the content type of the request being sent is text/xml and PHP is treating as a form post, you should report that as a PHP bug because PHP should only process form requests when the content type specifies that. For binary posts, the way to retrive posted data is not via $_POST. There are other request variables for that. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.metastorage.net/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] without session variables

[PHP] return node-set to stylesheet via php:function
using: RedHat ; PHP 5.1.2 ; libxml 2.6.22
How do I return a node-set to an xsl stylesheet via php:function?
I've had no difficulty returning strings, but so far xsl refuses to see
the result as something I can iterate as real XML.
php fragment:
-
// return String
function getNodesOne()
{
return 'RESULTNODEfoo/NODENODEbar/NODE/RESULT';
}
// return DomDocument
function getNodesTwo()
{
$xml = 'RESULTNODEfoo/NODENODEbar/NODE/RESULT';
$doc = DomDocument::loadXML($xml);
return $doc;
}
-
xsl fragment:
-
xsl:variable name=nodes
xsl:copy-of select=php:function('getNodes') /
/xsl:variable
cnt=xsl:value-of select=count($nodes/RESULT/NODE) /
-
expected result:
cnt=2
actual result:
cnt=0
Same result calling php:function('getNodesOne') or
php:function('getNodesTwo').
In both case, the xsl variable $nodes contains a string, not an actual
node-set that can be iterated and otherwise worked with.
$nodes/RESULT, like $nodes/RESULT/NODE, doesn't exist.
I also tried this, but it returns an empty node-set and not even a string:
-
xsl:copy-of select=document(php:function('getNodes')) /
-
Finally, I've also tried this, but libxml2 evidently does not support the
inline-data URI form:
-
xsl:variable name=tmp
xsl:value-of select=php:function('getNodes') /
/xsl:variable
xsl:variable name=nodes
xsl:copy-of select=document(concat('data:text/xml,',$tmp)) /
/xsl:variable
-
So, in all cases/combos of the above code, I get a string or an empty
node-set.
Clearly, there should be a way to get a node-set via php:function, without
creating a temporary xml file and without making a full request to apache.
Am I missing something? Is something broken or, worse, broken by design?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Moin,
You can´t start the browsers download dialog if you already sent any

not completely true. you can call header() many times, IIRC even
over writing specific previous calls e.g.
?php
header('Location: http://www.foo.com');
header('Location: http://www.bar.com');
exit
would send the user to bar.com (ask him to buy all a drink).
essentially the headers are not sent until output in initiated.

I'm trying to send emails from my PHP page, and while both mail() and PEAR Mail work, I'm having a hard time finding out whether a message was actually sent or not. The short answer is 'not really'. The long answer.. If the mail server accepts the mail, then the php mail() command returns true. If it doesn't accept it (eg it's down), then it returns false. Since (in this case) your mail server accepts the email to attempt delivery and places it in the queue, mail() returns true. Whether it works after that is up to the mail server to figure out. You could try to send emails through an smtp server but I don't think this would give you any extra benefits and it's a lot harder because you have to check at each step that the command works..

I notice that in the mail queue, each message is given a unique ID, which I suspect could be used for my purpose, i.e. has the message been processed yet, is there a temporary or permanent delivery problem, etc. I don't see how the PHP function would be able to get the message ID of the message it just handed over to the MTA. PHP can't directly (you could parse the 'mailq' output but is it worth it?). Those numbers / id's apply to the mta only, they have no meaning to anyone else. -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

No, you can't chain ini files like that, but you can build your PHP using: --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php Then any .ini file you put in /etc/php will be parsed in alphabetical order. -Rasmus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Floored!
If anyone has an answer for this, I would be greatly appreciative. I was trying to compare two values, the first is the total cost of products to be refunded, and the second is the original order total. To the naked eye, they both were coming out as 102.85, yet an if($Refund_Amount $Order_Total) was coming back true, so. I ran some tests, and did the following: $Order_Total = sprintf(%01.20f,$Order_Total); $Refund_Amount = sprintf(%01.20f,$Refund_Amount); which produced: $Order_Total = 102.84431566 and $Refund_Amount = 102.85852651 so, I figured I would try the following to make sure that the figures in the database weren't weird: $Bar = 102.85; $Foo = sprintf(%01.20f,$Bar); echo \$Foo = $Foo; which produced: $Foo = 102.84431566; I am completely lost. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

exploding the urls??? - this list is not called 'php-psychics'
for a reason. i.e. don't assume we know that you happen to have a
string which contains 'urls' that you seem to explode on a comma before
going on to run parse_url() on each item in the ensuing array. ;-)
PHP slang == explode()
I understand what exploding means in the context of php, what I didn't
understand was that you started to go about exploding urls in a follow
on post without any clarification (in the previous post there was no mention
of the processing being done to the _url_ let alone that your dealing
with a whole list of urls)
obviously you didn't get the point about not forcing
other people to infer whatever it is you are doing [prior
to where your code 'breaks'] when you want them to help you fix your
code.
padding, i had to trim it first, the array was coming out like
host=__http path=//www.thedomain.com :\
here is another example of what I mean: in the string __http
you _seem_ (that what I infer but I don't for sure) assume that
everyone implicitly understands that where yuou place an underscore
should be read as a blank space.
that 'array' is clear as mud.
next time maybe post some code and show (copy+paste) the actual output
not
some handtyped approximation. And before doing even that I recommend
you always do some simple debugging with var_dump() to examine the
actual contents of the variables in the code that seems to be broken
(once you see what in a variable it is quite often obvious what is going
wrong).
The previous part was from the var_dump ,as explained the url needed
do you see the difference between the following 2 statements?:
1. 'one has space padding'
2. 'it had a space before the http://'
and with regard to the remark The previous part was from the var_dump
that is just not true as the following code demonstrates
(unless you happen to have a php install with a serverly borked
var_dump() function):
$r = array(
host = __http,
path = //www.thedomain.com
);
var_dump($r);
this outputs (notice how the output is nothing like the string
host=__http path=//www.thedomain.com that you posted originally):
array(2) {
[host]=
string(6) __http
[path]=
string(19) //www.thedomain.com
}
