Re: [PHP] What would you like to see in most in a text editor?

[Brad Huskins]

Thanks Tim.

That is some very useful feedback.

I am aiming to build something that is almost as easy to use as Notepad.

Don't know if I'll be successful or not, but nice to know people value 
simplicity.

Pah! You and your full screen editor.

EDLIN is the way to go.


Is that more or less terse than TECO?

Back in 1989 when I was at SLAC, they were just getting into unix, and debates were 
raging about which editor to standardise on and teach people (emacs, vi, jove, 
etc). Because this wasn't settled, I started using notepad (and later, dxnotepad) 
and got on with coding. Six months later, the debates were still raging. I then had 
an epiphany: I'd been using notepad for six moths  got work done. It took me 5 
minutes to find out how to use it. I didn't need teaching about it or to have a 
manual. So IMO, emacs, vi, and all their ilk belong in the dustbin of history.

[PHP] What would you like to see in most in a text editor?

[Brad Huskins]

Hello all you php coders out there,

I'm doing an Open Source text editor (just a hobby) that's designed for 
PHP developers and is accessible through the web. This has been stewing 
for a while, and has gotten to the point where I can use it for my own 
work. I would like any feedback on things that people really 
like/dislike about their current editors, as I believe some of these 
things could be resolved in mine.


I currently have username/password protection (with Salted-Hash 
passwords), a file-system browser, file loading/saving, and syntax 
highlighting -- and these things seem to work reasonably well. As well, 
most things about the editor are scriptable with JavaScript. This would 
seem to imply that in a few weeks I would have something useful. So I 
would like to get some feedback on what features people would most want, 
since I am still at a very flexible stage in development.


If you would like to see what I have, you can go to 
un1tware.wordpress.com. You can also peruse the code at 
github.com/bhus/scriptr. In particular, the README on github gives a 
little bit better rationality for why something like this might be 
useful, and how things are currently structured.

[PHP] What would you like to see in a text editor?

[Brad Huskins]

Hello all you PHP devs,

I'm building an Open Source text editor accessible through the web. It 
has been brewing for a while in one form or another. But I think I 
finally have something solid to build on. I would like some feedback on 
things people like/dislike about their current editors.

I currently have a basic system working with a login, file browser, 
ability to load/save files and syntax highlighting working. All 
keystrokes are sent through a client-side JavaScript API built on JQuery. 
This would seem to imply that something usable is not more than a few 
weeks away, so I figured I would get some input now while things are 
still quite flexible. All suggestions are welcome, though not all will be 
implemented.

If you want, you can visit the web site for the project at 
un1tware.wordpress.com. There's a link to a video demo, as well as a the 
current version of the source code to try out.

As well, the project can be found at github.com/bhus/scriptr. I have 
tried to make the README readable and yet comprehensive.

[PHP] How PHP handles memory on exit

[Brad Lorge]

Hey All,

I have a question pertaining to how PHP handles the residual values in
memory once a thread exits. I am working on some credit card processing
logic and would like to ensure that the values I am working with are not
being left to their own fortune after the application exits. Out of habbit,
I have just been overwriting all the sensitive variables with x's (strings
only).

The concerns I have are:



   - Am I wasting my time? Does PHP already do this?
   - If a sensitive var had somehow been cast as an int, and then I
   overwrite it as a string, does that just change the pointer to another *
   copy* of the var typecast, or does it actually overwrite the original?
   - Does PHP store the argv/$_SERVER/$_REQUEST vars anywhere other than
   what is reachable in userland? If so is there a way to ensure they do not
   persist?


Any help you can provide would be hugely useful!


Regards,
Brad

Re: [PHP] Detecting Multi-Scope Variables

[Brad Lorge]

Perhaps my question was not as succinct as it could have been.

Basically, can you think of a means through which to detect whether or not a
variable is currently present in multiple scopes.

IE:

?php

$bob = fish;

echo is_multiscoped($bob); //False

function something()
{
 echo is_multiscoped($fish); //False
 gloabal $bob;
 echo is_multiscoped($bob);//True
}

function getJam($ref)
{
echo is_multiscoped($ref);//True
}

$jim = nothing special;

echo is_multiscoped($jim); //False

getJam($jim);

  Hello All,
 
  I am new to the list so please be gentle :)
 
  I am working on a PHP framework and have run up against a functionality

 all
  function in a similar way and require this functionality: templating,
 event
  handling and action handling. Within the core code of the application,
 as
  is common with many applications with plugin architecture, I pass a
 number
  of parameters to functions which have hooked into a particular event.
 Part
  of the mechanism is that parameters can be passed by reference to allow
  for the listeners to make modifications.
 
  $username=bob;$account_type=ISV;$password=fishbum;
 
  register_action_listener('process_user', function($username,
  $account_type, $password){$username.=. . $account_type;} // Or
  whatever
 
  call_action('process_user', $username, $account_type, $password);
  //Result: $username == bob.ISV

 I think you meant to use [1].

 
  Now, what I am trying to do is establish a method to prevent the hook
  functions from making changes by reference without reference explicitly
  being passed to them by the calling code.
 

 Perhaps you  should review [2] and see if your logic works with your
 'call_action'.

  I have thought of a method which simply makes a copy of all the
 parameters
  for each listener within call_action(), however what I would really love
 is a
  function which returns whether or not the supplied variable is available
 in
  multiple scopes or is in the original scope which it was initialized in.
  Does anyone know of a way to achieve this?

RE: [PHP] Re: How safe is a .htaccess file?

One thing I would do, and I have done this in many of my applications:

   a) Store the username / password in a database.
   b) Encrypt passwords (with a salt) with AES-256 using a key stored in a
file OUTSIDE the document path.
   c) Add code to the beginning of the included file to ensure it is only
executed by approved files.

?php

 if( 0 == preg_match( /maplerunfarm-secure\/admin.php/,
$_SERVER[SCRIPT_FILENAME] ) )
 {
 exit(Error: invalid inclusion of file. Please contact your system

 tedd wrote:
 Hi gang:

 The subject line says it all.

 How secure is a .htaccess file to store passwords and other sensitive
 stuff?

 Can a .htaccess file be viewed remotely?

 Semi-safe,

 .htaccess is prevented from being served by configuration options (which
 come as default), however these can be overwritten so best to check by
 doing a GET on the resource URI.

 This doesn't prevent them from being exposed via other processes though,
 for instance a poorly coded 'download.php?path=/path/to/.htaccess' could
 still expose the file.

 Typically, its obviously better to store only a hash of a password
 rather than the pass in plain text, choosing the strongest algorithm you
 can; password security is of course relative though, a sha-512 of
 'password1' is far from secure.

 A good way to approach encryption for files is to openssl_seal them
 using a public key which is only available to your application - this
 doesn't negate insecure code, but it at least ensures the raw files are
 encrypted securely enough to negate any of these worries. (just keep
 your private key safe, preferably in a pkcs12 w/a strong 64char+ pass)

 Best,

 Nathan

Hi Nathan,

I'm not a crypto expert.. but I'll try to explain it:

The weakness of MD5 is mainly because MD5 collisions are possible.
That means, that different strings can have the same MD5-hash...

When you use test as a secret password, then no hashing algorythm at
can be considered as safe. The first two passwords a cracker will
try might be 1234 and test.. No big deal.

Databases of MD5-hashes exists. And so can exist Databases of SHA-*
hashes. To get around these databases you can just salt your hash..
that way the Hash of the word test will not be the same as the hash
in the database without *your* salt. No matter if you use MD5 or
SHA256

$ echo -ne test | md5sum
098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6  -
$ echo -ne test-mySecretSalt | md5sum
c62fb41567c476e36ba46e5b53ae6d59  -

Only the first string will be available in a hash-database.

So you see - as long as a cracker only get's your salted hashes
WITHOUT the used salt, it's pretty safe.. as long as you don't think
about ignore collisions!



Back to topic:
 - as mentioned before the biggest risk in authentication via .ht*
files is that one can try to get these files via a bug in an
application.. (e.g. ?read_file=.htaccess%00)
 - that's why you don't want to use plain text-passwords in .htaccess
files. most used is the htdigest algorythm. Be sure to use a STRONG
password: long string with letter, numbers and more chars.
 - if you're curious, get a copy of John the Ripper password cracker
and try to decode your passwords.. that's what the bad guys use once
they get your .htaccess file.

[PHP] regex pattern for extracting URLs

[Brad Fuller]

I'm looking for a regular expression to accomplish a specific task.

I'm hoping someone who's really good at regex patterns can lend a quick hand.

I need a regex pattern that will grab URLs out of HTML that have a
certain link text. (i.e. the word Continue)

This is what I have so far but it does not work properly (If there are
other attributes in the a tag it returns them as part of the URL.)

    
preg_match_all('#a[\s]+[^]*href\s*=\s*([\\']+)([^]+?)(\1|)Continue/a#i',
$html, $matches);

It needs to be able to extract the URL and disregard arbitrary
attributes in the HTML tag

Test it with the following examples:

a href=/path/to/url.htmlContinue/a
a href='/path/to/url.html'Continue/a
a href=http://example.com/path/to/url.html; class=linkContinue/a
a style=font-size: 12px href=http://example.com/path/to/url.html;
onlick=someFunction('foo','bar')Continue/a

Please reply

Your help is much appreciated.

 I just changed your regex a bit. What your regex was previously doing was
 matching everything from the first quote after the href= right up until the
 first  it found, which would usually be the one that closes the opening
 tag. You could make it a bit more intelligent if you wished with
 backreferencing to make sure it matches against the same type of quotation
 character it matched as the start of the href's value.

   Thanks,

I appreciate the help.  However, when try this I only get the first
character of the URL.  Can you double check it please.

  hand.
 
  I need a regex pattern that will grab URLs out of HTML that have a
  certain link text. (i.e. the word Continue)
 
  This is what I have so far but it does not work properly (If there are
  other attributes in the a tag it returns them as part of the URL.)
 
  
  preg_match_all('#a[\s]+[^]*href\s*=\s*([\\']+)([^]+?)(\1|)Continue/a#i',
  $html, $matches);
 
  It needs to be able to extract the URL and disregard arbitrary
  attributes in the HTML tag
 
  Test it with the following examples:
 
  a href=/path/to/url.htmlContinue/a
  a href='/path/to/url.html'Continue/a
  a href=http://example.com/path/to/url.html; class=linkContinue/a
  a style=font-size: 12px href=http://example.com/path/to/url.html;
  onlick=someFunction('foo','bar')Continue/a
 
  Please reply
 
  Your help is much appreciated.
 
  Thanks in advance,
  Brad F.
 
 
 
  preg_match_all('#a[\s]+[^]*href\s*=\s*[\\']+([^\\']+?).+?Continue/a#i',
  $html, $matches);
 
  I just changed your regex a bit. What your regex was previously doing was
  matching everything from the first quote after the href= right up until the
  first  it found, which would usually be the one that closes the opening
  tag. You could make it a bit more intelligent if you wished with
  backreferencing to make sure it matches against the same type of quotation
  character it matched as the start of the href's value.

 I appreciate the help.  However, when try this I only get the first
 character of the URL.  Can you double check it please.

 Thanks again


 I think it's probably the first ? in ([^\\']+?)

 Remove that and it should do the trick

That did the trick.  Thanks Ash you are awesome!

Also thanks Jim for your suggestion.  I may move to SimpleXML if the project
grows much bigger.  But for now I was looking for a nice one liner and this
is it.

Cheers,
Brad

 Hi Brad,

 I agree with Jim.

 Take a look at this. It might help.

 ?php

 $xml_string = TEXT_BOUNDARY
 html
     head
     title/title
     /head
     body
     div
     a href=http://example.com/path/to/urlA.html;Continue/a
     a href=http://example.com/path/to/url2.html;Brad Fuller/a
     a href=http://example.com/path/to/urlB.html;Continue/a

     a href=http://example.com/path/to/urlC.html;
 class=linkContinue/a
     a style=font-size: 12px
 href=http://example.com/path/to/urlD.html;
 onclick=someFunction('foo','bar')Continue/a
     /div
     /body
 /html
 TEXT_BOUNDARY;

 $xml = simplexml_load_string($xml_string);

 $continue_hrefs = $xml-xpath(//a[text() = 'Continue']/@href);

 print_r($continue_hrefs);

 ?


Thanks, I'm sure I will use this at some point in the future :)

[PHP] RE: Paypal and Php

[Brad Broerman]

A couple years ago, I wrote a simple PayPal gateway. If you'd like, I can
zip up the files and send them to you. It's really not that difficult.

After registering, you have to call a SOAP api, redirect to their page, and
then call another api when they return to your site. I can go into more
detail later if you're interested. As others have mentioned, there are some
more complex Zend framework classes for this, but you may opt for the
simpler and more direct route...

[PHP] RE: Multiple return statements in a function.

Well, the latter method is generally easier to understand later. Most
programming style books preach this method, and it's the one that most of my
previous employers use.

Subject: Multiple return statements in a function.


I tend to put my return value in a variable and at the end of the
function I have 1 return statement.
I have seen others doing returns in the middle of the function.

Example how I do it:
function check($a) {
  $return='';
  if ( is_array( $a ) ) {
$return='Array';
  } else {
$return='Not Array';
  }
  return $return;
}

Example of the other method:
function check($a) {

  if ( is_array( $a ) ) {
return ('Array');
  } else {
return ('Not Array');
  }
}

What is your take? And is there any benefit to either method?

[PHP] RE: AJAX with POST

[Brad Broerman]

Well, as the A in Ajax is asynchronous, there's no real way to make it
wait. What you would normally do is use a callback:

function createXHRObject( )
{
if (typeof XMLHttpRequest != undefined)
{
return new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else if (typeof ActiveXObject != undefined)
{
return new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XMLHTTP);
}
else
{
throw new Error(XMLHttpRequest not supported);
}
}

function sendAjaxRequest( websvcurl , params, callbackFn )
{
var xhrObject = createXHRObject();

xhrObject.open(POST, websvcurl, true);
xhrObject.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if (xhrObject.readyState == 4)
{
if( xhrObject.responseXML != null )
{
callbackFn (xhrObject.responseXML);
}
}
}

xhrObject.setRequestHeader(Content-type,
application/x-www-form-urlencoded);
xhrObject.setRequestHeader(Content-length, params.length);
xhrObject.setRequestHeader(Connection, close);
xhrObject.send(params);
}

Hey all,

At the risk of being told this is a PHP and not a JS list, but
also knowing the discussions on this list, to the benefit of
all I believe, very wildly, I'm posting this JS code snippet
for some advice.

As I posted earlier, my AJAX app that uses a GET to post to
the server (and get a response), fails on IE with larger data,
so I thought I'd take a shot at writing a POST function, but
so far I can get it to get the data back, but the problem is
by the time the data has come back the function has already
returned null back to the calling function. What I need this
function to do is wait for the data to come back and then send
it back to caller. Here's the function. Any advice would be
greatly appreciated. (The code to get the appropriate object
per browser has been omitted.)

http.open(POST, url, true);

//Send the proper header information along with the request
http.setRequestHeader(Content-type,
application/x-www-form-urlencoded);
http.setRequestHeader(Content-length, url.length);
http.setRequestHeader(Connection, close);

http.send(url);

http.onreadystatechange = function() {//Call a function when
the state changes.
if(http.readyState == 4  http.status == 200) {
alert('['+http.responseText+']');
return (http.responseText);
}
}

[PHP] Issues with mcrypt (Rijndael 128) and external C application.

[Brad Broerman]

Hi, I am trying to encode a string using Rijndael-128 using a C application
that I wrote, based on the BSD crypt/rijndael libarary and decode it in PHP
using mcrypt_decrypt. Each part of the program works separately (I can
encrypt with the c app, and decrypt with it, and I can encrypt with
mcrypt_encrypt and decrypt with the mcrypt_decrypt method).

Both use CBC mode, and I have the C process generate a random IV that is
also sent to the PHP process. I have verified that the IV is correctly
picked off of the stream, and stored.

Additionally, the key is stored in hex, and converted to binary for both
processes. The output strings are converted to Base64.

Both applications are currently running on the same system.

Demo app is at http://www.bbroerman.net/aestest.php

The PHP code for the decode is:

// Base64 decode the input (turn into binary)
$decoded = base64_decode($decrypt);

// Get the size of the IV
$iv_size = mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC);

// Split the incoming message into the original IV and the cryptext
$iv = substr($decoded,0,$iv_size);
$string = substr($decoded,$iv_size);

// Decode the cryptext.
$decrypted = mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, pack('H*',$key), $string,
MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv);


and the C code for encrypt is (unnecessary helper methods removed):

// Convert key to binary from a hex string.
char* binkey = NULL;
int tmpkeylen;
hex2dec( key, binkey, tmpkeylen );

// Make sure the message is padded to the correct block length.
unsigned int msglen = strlen(messageSrc);
char* paddedMsg = NULL;
if( msglen % 16 != 0 )
{
int padding = 16 - msglen % 16;
paddedMsg = malloc( msglen + padding + 1 );
memset( paddedMsg, 0, msglen + padding + 1 );
strncpy( paddedMsg, messageSrc, msglen );
msglen = msglen + padding;
}
else
{
paddedMsg = malloc( msglen+1 );
memset( paddedMsg, 0, msglen+1 );
strncpy( paddedMsg, messageSrc, msglen );
}

// Build a random IV block.
int idx;
char iv[RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE];
for(idx = 0; idx  RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE; ++idx)
{
iv[idx] = get_random()  0xFF;
}

// Initialize the cypher instance, in CBC mode.
int retCd = rijndael_cipherInit(ci, MODE_CBC, iv);

// Make the key.
rijndael_makeKey(ki, DIR_ENCRYPT, 128, binkey);

// Encrypt the message.
out = (char*)malloc(msglen*8);
retCd = rijndael_blockEncrypt(ci, ki, paddedMsg, msglen * 8, out);

// Now, take the IV and the output cryptext, and compose the output message.
char* fullmsgbuff = malloc( RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE + msglen + 1);

for( idx = 0; idx  RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE; ++idx )
fullmsgbuff[idx] = iv[idx];

for(; idx  RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE + msglen; ++idx )
fullmsgbuff[idx] = out[idx - RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE];

// Base64 encode the output.
char* buffout;
base64encode(fullmsgbuff, msglen + RIJNDAEL_MAX_IV_SIZE, buffout);

// and print it all out.
fprintf(stdout, %s, buffout);

[PHP] strtr array replace issue...

[Brad Freshour]

Apache: 2.2.8 threaded
 PHP: 5.2.4-2
 mySQL: 5.051.a

 Ubuntu 8.04 minimal with everything needed installed via apt-get.

 Using SMF forum, I'm having an issue with the strtr command...  Here's
 the code...

 $ftp_file = strtr($filename, array ($_SESSION['pack_ftp']['root'] =''));

 The $_SESSION['pack_ftp']['root'] variable is an empty set: ''

 Well, if the above strtr command was translated it would look like this:

 strtr(/home/user/public_html/Packages/temp, array ('' =''));

 You would think that the return would be : /home/user/public_html/Packages/temp

 However, it returns '' instead.

 I can get around this by modifying the code to the site manually and
 checking to see if $_SESSION['pack_ftp']['root'] == '' and if it does
 assign it something crazy, like $_SESSION['pack_ftp']['root'] =
 '%'

 However, the code works on another site I have that's hosted for me
 (shared hosting).

 Anyone have any ideas?

 I was wondering if it was related to this: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27457
 But that seems like an old bug...

 Thanks.

[PHP] two small issues with php mail

[Brad]

Implementing Bcc and smtp.

 

#1 email is only being sent to a few recipients.

I need to implement 

$smtp = ‘localhost’; 

Somewhere, but I keep getting parse errors?

 

#2 trying to do a Bcc but that gives me parse errors as well

It should be as easy as?

$Bcc [EMAIL PROTECTED]; $eol = \r\n;

 

Here is the working code, but if I implement the above needed inserts
anywhere, I get a big ‘ol fat parse error

 

Any assistance would be truly appreciated.

An explanation of why would really help since this is for a school project.

 

Working code as is:

 

?

$email = $_REQUEST['email'];

$fromaddress = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';

$fromname = 'Zone of success Club'; $eol = \r\n;

$headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

// $headers = 'bcc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';

$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

$headers .= 'Return-Path: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP '.phpversion().$eol;

$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.$eol;

RE: [PHP] two small issues with php mail

[Brad]

Apperently my smtp portion is not working.
This did not solve my problem of sending email to only 50% of the
recipients, just no parse error
This is what the php mail manual page suggest?

And

Where should the bcc go if not the header?

 Works but corrupts the from portion and changes it to nobody
 Which I think goes back too the smtp portion.

There is no bcc: header. BCC'ing someone is normally done by sending
them the email without listing them explicitly in to: or cc:.

Ahh, suddenly everything becomes clear. You can't use PHPMailer because 
that would mean that you didn't learn it yourself you just used somebody 
elses work. So instead you ask here rather than reading the PHPMailer 
source code. Nice.

 Working code as is:

 $fromaddress = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
 
 $fromname = 'Zone of success Club'; $eol = \r\n;
 
 $headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

This should work. However, because you're assigning this to $headers 
rather than concatenating it you're trampling over the From line above.

BTW, Bcc usually has a capital letter. Probably wouldn't cause any 
problems but has the potential to stop it working.

 $headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

$headers .= CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED];

Googling PHP: mail bcc (sans quotes) has 5 viable workings on how to do
it.  If it fails, then you need to be examing the php.ini file for
information or talking with the server admins as to what piece is wrong.
Also, if you are error checking your own stuff, then the error log should be
able to tell you what has failed out.

I'm glad your professor is teaching you how to learn, but shouldn't this be
something you should be able to do already?

RE: [PHP] two small issues with php mail

You say

 The use of BCC with the PHP mail function is pretty well-explained on 
 the PHP manual page for said function.

I say,

No it doesn't, I tried everything on that page and it either parse error'ed
or didn't work.

The php manual page goes from baby basics to crazy smtp authentication
processes with a snippet of my issue which when extracted does not work.
When add lib is added, it does not work, when the entire code piece is
extracted, it does not work, when attempted to clean it up and cater to my
environment, it parse errors.

How about a relational examination or how they got from point a to point d?

I didn't say TO edit the php.ini file, but it will tell you what the setup
of said server is, including compiled in pieces and smtp settings.

Are you aware of .htaccess files?  google override php.ini using .htaccess
and you should get some good hits there.  But then that is probably outside
the scope of your assignment.  However some professors see that as
insightful, YMMV.

 very basic,  ALL books say to make this page when verifying PHP is

 Works but corrupts the from portion and changes it to nobody
 Which I think goes back too the smtp portion.

There is no bcc: header. BCC'ing someone is normally done by sending them
the email without listing them explicitly in to: or cc:.

 Implementing Bcc and smtp.
 Here we go again

 Somewhere, but I keep getting parse errors?
 Those are not normal quotes, but I'm guessing you actually typed that in 
 the evil that is Outlook.

 #2 trying to do a Bcc but that gives me parse errors as well

 It should be as easy as?

 $Bcc [EMAIL PROTECTED]; $eol = \r\n;
 That's not valid code. Ok, the second bit is, but still rather pointless.

 Here is the working code, but if I implement the above needed inserts
 anywhere, I get a big ‘ol fat parse error

 Any assistance would be truly appreciated.

 An explanation of why would really help since this is for a school
 project.

 Ahh, suddenly everything becomes clear. You can't use PHPMailer because 
 that would mean that you didn't learn it yourself you just used somebody 
 elses work. So instead you ask here rather than reading the PHPMailer 
 source code. Nice.

 Working code as is:

 ?

 $email = $_REQUEST['email'];

 $fromaddress = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';

 $fromname = 'Zone of success Club'; $eol = \r\n;

 $headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

 // $headers = 'bcc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
 This should work. However, because you're assigning this to $headers 
 rather than concatenating it you're trampling over the From line above.

 BTW, Bcc usually has a capital letter. Probably wouldn't cause any 
 problems but has the potential to stop it working.

 $headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

 $headers .= 'Return-Path: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

 $headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP '.phpversion().$eol;

 $headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.$eol;

 $headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit';

 $subject = 'Your free book!';

 $body = 'a

 href=http://www.zoneofsuccessclub.com/freePDF/autopilotebook.pdf;Click
 ME/a  Here is your FREE autopilot book';
 Click ME indeed. I'm guessing this isn't an HCI course you're doing.

 mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers);

 ?

No, you don't have clearance since you haven't passed syntax 101 along with
English and Grammar 101.  Once you have completed these courses, the answers

If Stut's answer does not make sense to you, google concatenate in the

From and Bcc are *BOTH* part of the headers - that's why you want to
concatenate them. By not using the . (dot), you are over-writing the From

Subject: RE: [PHP] two small issues with php mail

 

My original issue is trying to implement a Bcc and 

 

Emails are only making it to 50% of the recipients.

Research and past experience says that I need to implement smtp into my
code.

 

Testing of the present “parse free” code show that email addresses on the
same server: To: works Bcc: does not

 

Once Bcc: works on same server, I will need to test Bcc on another server
which I am sure requires the proper smtp configuration.

 

Working code:

 

?

$email = $_REQUEST['email'];

$fromaddress = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';

$fromname = ‘g'; $eol = \r\n;

$smtp = localhost;

$headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

$headers .= 'Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'; $eol = \r\n;

$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

$headers .= 'Return-Path: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;

$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP '.phpversion().$eol;

$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.$eol;

$headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit';

$subject = 'Your free book!';

$body = 'a

Do I just replace mail and the end with print?
Aka

well, you need to do some basic debugging.

a) replace your mail() function with print statements and review the
output to make certain that it is correct. [this will require that
you look at appropriate documentation to see how message headers/body
should be formatted.]

b) if a) looks right, then look at your mail server's logs to see
what shows up there.

Just because you can't use php-mailer in your project doesn't mean you 
can't use it as a reference.

Grab phpmailer and look at the process it follows to do smtp sending.

smtp authentication is a pain at the best of times but trying to do it 
the way you are now will just drive you mad (been there, done that).

Looking at a working code sample will make things a lot clearer in your 
head rather than random code from 100 different locations.

http://www.cosmonroe.org/~devin/postfix/smtp-auth.txt under SMTP 
Authentication will give you an idea of what you need to do but there 
is a ton more error checking and validation you need to do along the way.

the php mailing list is not intended as a tutor. we have all provided
you with pointers and direction. it is for you, as the student, to
use your skills, seek out examples if necessary, and then determine
how to implement a solution.

the online php manual is really sufficient documentation. if the core
documentation provided by the php developers isn't sufficient, then
look at the included user-provided examples (realizing that they
aren't vetted, so aren't always 100% accurate). if you don't do well
with things in manual format (some people do, some don't), then you
might want to buy the o'reilly php book or something similar.

on the specifics, if you don't know how to format a print statement,
then look it up:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/

a tutor might turn the manual to the appropriate page and point to an
example, but as that's not our role so i'll let you thumb through to
the right page.

 well, you need to do some basic debugging.
 
 a) replace your mail() function with print statements and review
 the output to make certain that it is correct. [this will require
 that you look at appropriate documentation to see how message
 headers/body should be formatted.]
 
 b) if a) looks right, then look at your mail server's logs to see
 what shows up there.

Sir, you are very kind, but your implementation of array has me as the
monkey with a light bulb
I know BASIC (the language) at a minimal.
Basic functionality I know;
Your implementation of core knowledge programming to php quarks is blowing
my mind when looking at my existing problem.

#1
You build your array with;
= array(
'Function 1',
'function 2',
//...
);

?
//...
);
??

Skip the ... and end with ):

Php has enough goof ball stuff, with it's mail function.

Your suggestion is kind but you are shooting over my head...
  $headers = implode(\r\n, $headers);

Implode
Hmmm = build array here but, the usage of \r\n is already confusing me.
The manual says to use it for Bcc
Parse error says otherwise when not in you array.
Why?

Else blame casey

Never, you are trying to help!

1.) You reference $to in the mail() function, but there is no $to
defined.  Instead, either change $email to $to or vice-versa.
2.) You don't need to start the first line of a variable off with
a .= --- this will append to an existing variable of the same name, if
it exists.
3.) You change your quoting style where it's not necessary.  All
$msg lines should be using double quotes in your code above.
4.) ahref=... is not a tag.  The correct usage is a href=...
5.) You have things in the message body that should be in the headers.
6.) You don't need to do a carriage return and newline in the
message body.  A simple \n will suffice.
7.) I'm not sure what you hoped to achieve with the
'.www.domain.com.' conglomerate, but don't.  That makes PHP
think that the domain is some sort of internally-defined variable of
horrible construct.
8.) You should use http:// prior to the FQDN.

Taking hints from what appears to be your code, this is how it should
be:
?
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$eol=\r\n;
$headers  = From: .$fromname..$fromaddress..$eol;
$headers .= Reply-To: .$fromname..$fromaddress..$eol;

You have a MIME boundary where it doesn't belong.  MIME boundaries are
for the body, not the header.

No access to the server command line to install it!
And, I am into this guy too deep to switch technologies. For the next time
around, no problem, this time I am just trying to get php to do what it is
supposed to do.

The suggestion of mime was presented to me from another kind sole trying to
help that knows more than I and recommended on other help files.

Why is php refusing to parse as html?

You should not have a mime boundary in your headers. Why not use 
PHPMailer? All this (apparently) complicated stuff is already 
implemented for you. Either that or spend a few days learning about the 
structure of emails by following the links Daniel Brown sent you a few 
emails ago.

PHPMailer can be found here: http://phpmailer.sf.net/

RE: [PHP] Cannot send a hyperlink

[Brad]

Thank you so much!

It worked like a champ first try!
I would have never seen that and have been looking everywhere on the net for
a working example!

Funny thing is, right after is work perfectly twice, my database crashed!

But, this is the technology we play with!

Problem solved and I am going to post this code on the php website for
others to reference!

Thank you!

You don't need command line access to install it. PHPMailer consists of 
PHP only - nothing to install but PHP files. See here: 
http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/install.php

 The suggestion of mime was presented to me from another kind sole trying
to
 help that knows more than I and recommended on other help files.
 
 Why is php refusing to parse as html?

And here lies the basic problem. PHP is *not* the thing that's refusing 
to parse it as HTML. Since you don't know that you really should do a 
lot of reading before you try sending HTML emails without using 
something like PHPMailer.

For beeps and farts I've fixed your code, but even though it will now 
work it is nowhere near the right way to send this type of email, but 
my life is probably going to be too short to tell you what you could 
easily find out yourself.

$email = $_REQUEST['email'];
$fromaddress = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
$fromname = 'Zone of success Club';
$eol = \r\n;
$headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;
$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;
$headers .= 'Return-Path: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP '.phpversion().$eol;
$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.$eol;
$headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit';
$subject = 'This is my spam, worship me';
$body = 'a href=http://www.zoneofsuccessclub.com/;link/a';
mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers);

Some *important* notes...

* I defined $subject because it tries to use it.
* You don't need to provide the MessageID - your mail server will do 
that for you... correctly.
* You don't need to add two carriage returns at the end of the headers - 
PHP will do that for you.
* This email will be in HTML only which makes it a lot more likely to 
get flagged as spam.
* If you're on a unix-based platform you really should be using the 5th 
parameter to mail, but that's probably going to confuse the hell out of 
you so I won't mention it. D'oh!
* This code is not secure. It's trivial to inject headers (and a body 
too) into the message. You should be validating that $_REQUEST['email'] 
is a valid email address and just a valid email address.

 You should not have a mime boundary in your headers. Why not use 
 PHPMailer? All this (apparently) complicated stuff is already 
 implemented for you. Either that or spend a few days learning about the 
 structure of emails by following the links Daniel Brown sent you a few 
 emails ago.

If you do please don't mention me. This might work but as I said in my 
email (which you clearly read very carefully!) it's not the right way to 
do it.

Please pay particular notice to my last important note below... THIS 
CODE IS NOT SECURE. It's easily used as a mail relay script, so please 
don't use it in production or $DEITY will kill a bunch of kittens.

 You don't need command line access to install it. PHPMailer consists of 
 PHP only - nothing to install but PHP files. See here: 
 http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/install.php
 
 The suggestion of mime was presented to me from another kind sole trying
 to
 help that knows more than I and recommended on other help files.

 Why is php refusing to parse as html?
 
 And here lies the basic problem. PHP is *not* the thing that's refusing 
 to parse it as HTML. Since you don't know that you really should do a 
 lot of reading before you try sending HTML emails without using 
 something like PHPMailer.
 
 For beeps and farts I've fixed your code, but even though it will now 
 work it is nowhere near the right way to send this type of email, but 
 my life is probably going to be too short to tell you what you could 
 easily find out yourself.
 
 $email = $_REQUEST['email'];
 $fromaddress = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
 $fromname = 'Zone of success Club';
 $eol = \r\n;
 $headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;
 $headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;
 $headers .= 'Return-Path: '.$fromname.' '.$fromaddress.''.$eol;
 $headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP '.phpversion().$eol;
 $headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.$eol;
 $headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit';
 $subject = 'This is my spam, worship me';
 $body = 'a href=http://www.zoneofsuccessclub.com/;link/a';
 mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers);
 
 Some *important* notes...
 
 * I defined $subject because it tries to use it.
 * You don't need to provide the MessageID - your mail server will do 
 that for you... correctly.
 * You don't need to add two carriage returns at the end of the headers - 
 PHP will do that for you.
 * This email will be in HTML only which makes it a lot more likely to 
 get flagged as spam.
 * If you're on a unix-based platform you really should be using the 5th 
 parameter to mail, but that's probably going to confuse the hell out of 
 you so I won't mention it. D'oh!
 * This code is not secure. It's trivial to inject headers (and a body 
 too) into the message. You should be validating that $_REQUEST['email'] 
 is a valid email address and just a valid email address.

 [snip]
 
 1.) You reference $to in the mail() function, but there is no $to
 defined.  Instead, either change $email to $to or vice-versa.
 2.) You don't need to start the first line of a variable off with
 a .= --- this will append to an existing variable of the same name, if
 it exists.
 3.) You change your quoting style where it's not necessary.  All
 $msg lines should be using double quotes in your code above.
 4.) ahref=... is not a tag.  The correct usage is a href=...
 5.) You have things in the message body that should be in the headers.
 6.) You don't need to do a carriage return and newline in the
 message body.  A simple \n will suffice.
 7.) I'm not sure what you hoped to achieve with the
 '.www.domain.com.' conglomerate, but don't.  That makes PHP
 think that the domain is some sort of internally-defined variable of
 horrible construct.
 8.) You should use http:// prior to the FQDN.
 
 Taking hints from what appears to be your code, this is how it should
 be:
 ?
 $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
 $eol=\r\n;
 $headers  = From: .$fromname..$fromaddress..$eol;
 $headers .= Reply-To: .$fromname..$fromaddress..$eol;

Brad I'm sorry.

Instead of insulting you and telling you to go read a book I simply

Yes you do not need quotes in the mail() function.

about NOT HAVING TO USE ANY QUOTES HERE ? Are you defining any type of 
string-like values here? no. Then you don't need quotes, right? no, you 
don't. SO DON'T USE THEM HERE THEN.
You're defining a $to and an $E_MAIL, you're not using $to anywhere, and 
only using $E_MAIL in one place (out of two), thus creating a mismatch 
between your headers and the To parameter for mail (which is used in 
SMTP traffic). [iz bad (tm)]

 You can use the database to generate the $E_MAIL address and the $to

 Your problem is the Headers are missing which allows the html content to

wtf. $_REQUEST is a super global - nothing what so ever to do

 is about as robust as a soap bubble. in a world where 60-70
of all mail is SPAM how far do you think the crufty output your generating

which is why I suggested a mailer class that is known to work and wraps

most people will probably be using a DB as the source of dynamic content

oh yeah and taking the 'to' email address from the request is just asking

RE: [PHP] Cannot send a hyperlink

[Brad]

Explanation of code

$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
(generated by dreamweaver that pulls in the database functions)

$message = 'a href='.www.zoneofsuccessclub.com.'link /a';
(my nemesis, I can not figure out this puppy. If it works at all, php will
generate it at text and not html. Taken from example I find on the web.)

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . \r\n;  $headers .= 'Content-type:
text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . \r\n;
(found on the web to solve my html problem???)

mail( $email, Your FREE book from Zone of Success Club .com, $headers,
$message, From: $email ); ?
(Send the mail, when I put $headers in, the function quits working all
together.)

I hope this helps explain where my head is!

You *really* need to read the manual page for function before you use 
them. For example a quick glance at http://php.net/function.mail reveals 
that you have the parameters in an almost completely wrong order.

And please tell me you're not really setting the to address directly 
from an external variable with verifying that it's just an email address 
and nothing else. Really bad idea.

RE: [PHP] re-post (unanswered) Tables, flash and text

[Brad]

Sure thing,

The site is http://www.gaymillionaire.net

You can see that I have a bunch of text underneath the flash animation in
the middle.
I am trying to fill the dead space to the right of it.

In the code, I can see where to widen the table.
One would think that php would fill the dead space if the is nothing
blocking it.
But it is not.

Here is the snippet I think is controlling it.
Just seeking an answer or got reading material to understand it.

div class=columnWide
?php $this-loadTemplate(boxes/simple.tpl, false, array('secheader' =
$this-language['welcome'], 'class' = 'brown'), true); ?

Brad, it's been barely six hours since you first posted that question.  

1) be patient. 
2) it's a lot of code to ask someone else to look at for you.  I would
start by narrowing down the problem/code a bit, then perhaps ask the

[PHP] header error without whitespace issue

[Brad]

Error =

WARNING: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output
started at /home/zoneof5/public_html/index-dev.html:10) in line 1528 of file
common.inc.php

 

Which comes from me trying to take a login script and put it into an
existing .html file with .htaccess configured to parse php scripts.

 

Research yields that the header needs to be loaded before anything.

The header is being called by another file “common.inc.php”

 

How do I safely extract this call from the existing script and place the
call at the beginning of the .html or just simply fix the error?

 

Php code;

 

 

?php

include('./amember/config.inc.php');

$t =  new_smarty();

$_product_id = array('ONLY_LOGIN');

if (isset($_REQUEST['amember_redirect_url']))

$_SESSION['amember_redirect_url'] = $_REQUEST['amember_redirect_url'];

function rcmp_begin_date($a, $b){

return strcmp($b['begin_date'], $a['begin_date']);

}

include($config['plugins_dir']['protect'] . '/php_include/check.inc.php');

$payments =  $db-get_user_payments(intval($_SESSION['_amember_id']), 1);

usort($payments, 'rcmp_begin_date');

$now = date('Y-m-d');

$urls = array();

foreach ($payments as $k=$v){

if (($v['expire_date'] = $now)  ($v['begin_date'] = $now)) {

$p = get_product($v['product_id']);

$url = $p-config['url'];

if (strlen($url)){

$urls[] = $url;

}

}

}

if ($_SESSION['amember_redirect_url']) {

$redirect = $_SESSION['amember_redirect_url'];

unset($_SESSION['amember_redirect_url']);

} elseif (count(array_unique($urls)) == 1){

Re: [PHP] adding Back to Search results link

[Brad Bonkoski]

Something like this might work:
a href=javascript:history.go(-1)
(To go back 1 page)
Of course if this is a form post, it would repost the data resulting in 
that annoying pop-up on most browsers indicating the page is being 
re-posted.


Maybe you could write out the post variables to the session variables, 
and have your page 2 look for the $_POST and $_SESSION for the variables 
in question...

Re: [PHP] Numbers, Numbers everywhere! Need some Dollar help.

[Brad Bonkoski]

Dan Shirah wrote:

Greetins all,

In my form I have an area where the user enters in the payment amount:

input type=Text value= size=20 maxlength=16 name=payment_amount

This is all fine and dandy and works as generically as it can. BUT, the
problem is that I need to make sure the user didn't fat finger any of the
numbers.  For instance, in my generic text field the user types 600 in the
payment amount and clicks submit.

This works and the user is charged $600.  But, come to find out the user
meant to enter 6.00 not 600. Can I add a check using PHP to force the user
to put in the dollar AND cents? This way if a number such as 600 is entered
and the user hits save, the check will notice there isn't a .00 on the end
and prompt the user for more information.

Could I incorporate something like:

if ($payment_amount != number_format($payment_amount, 2)) {
  error here
}

Or, do you think I would be better off using two text areas?  One for the
dollar value and one for the cents?

Or, do you think I would be better off trying to find some kind of
javascript function that would check the value upon submit?

Any help is appreciated.

Dan

  
If you want it squarely on the client side, then use javascript.  There 
are easy functions to split a text string (like php's explode).
Then you can split on the '.' and then do some logical stuff like the 
cents is between 00 and 99, and anything else you think necessary.
If there are no cents, then you can issue a confirmation box.  So, my 
vote is to handle it within javascript, as it should not be too difficult.

As a quick follow up...

Re: [PHP] best technique to get the ID of the last inserted value

[Brad Bonkoski]

One easy solution would be to get the ID before you do the insert
i.e. in Oracle you would run the query:
select some_id_generating_seq.nextval from dual

and then you would use that id to insert and you would know the id after 
that...and the DB would take care of locking and such.
So, check the help pages for your DB of choice to see what support they 
have for something like that.

Actually I need to get the root domain from the URL as a previous step to a

example.com only.

dig www.example.com  doesn't always give the information I need either.

returns an empty authns array for some of us but works properly for Robin

 The applet *does* POST to PHP. However, it has the option to upload
 to an FTP server the choice of using HTTP, HTTPS or FTP

 So it seems applet posts complete data to that php file
 handling script (rather php engine),*as soon as upload button
 is clicked*, rather than uploading first and then posting to
 php. That is the reason for name phpxx.tmp of temporary file.
 
 As that seems to be the case; there is no real benefit in
 using applet (in case of http) other than that progress bar
 which is already supported by php
 5.2
 
 It also seems that php engine only hands over control to php
 file after the file is completely uploaded that is why my
 custom logging doesn't start as soon as upload starts. It
 only starts when file is already uploaded.
 
 The timeout is likely coming from Apache. It has a limits similar to
 PHP. 
 
 Tested on two servers. Both cases it seems to fail if it
 takes more than 30 seconds.
 I get an error:
 [08-Jun-2007 20:15:06] PHP Fatal error:  Maximum execution
 time of 30 seconds exceeded in \handle_upload.php on line 2
 
 
 If you don't mind me asking, what are people uploading? 4gig is a lot
 for a single file of any type except maybe DVD images. Is there no
 way the user can upload several (read lots) smaller files instead of
 one big one? 
 
 It is not people that are uploading things. It is admin, and
 admin is local to server. I won't want to try uploading 4 GB
 over internet. And yes these are dvd files. They are going to
 be uploaded for streaming. But along with uploading of files
 som other fields also have to be uploaded. Client is showing
 examples like http://www.attachmore.com/Whysubscribe.aspx
 which claim unlimited upload size. I assume they are using
 custom activex controls.
 
 Looks like I have to post that php's upload limit of 1.99 gb
 to php internal mailing list.

 Absolutely correct - the data sent with an HTTP POST will be
 completely uploaded before the PHP script is started. Likewise, the
 entry in the apache log will only be done once the request is
 completed otherwise it doesn't know all the information it needs.
 
 Another thing that came up with this jupload is that as soon as I
 hit upload button, a file named phpxx.tmp (xx is any number) is
 created in temporary directory and its size starts growing as
 upload happens. 
 
 If applet doesn't post to php even at start then how come the

 I tried to upload file on internet using jupload and it seems to me
 script is timing out even when I have specified 1 hour as timeout.
 set_time_limit(216000); 
 
 137 MB upload seemed to time out. and the set_time_limit doesn't
 seem to have any affect. 
 
 Now the even if I accept php's 1.99 GB limit. What to do about this
 timeout? Do I have to set it in php.ini? Why woudn't it work through
 the above function?
 
 The timeout is likely coming from Apache. It has a limits similar to
 PHP. 
 
 Stut is suggesting it has to be custom made as this kind of solution
 doesn't seem to already exit. A solution where some applet etc. only
 passes that information to php which is needed to move the file and
 update the database.
 
 Indeed, that is what I'm suggesting. However, I *do* think the
 solution exists, but I've only ever seen it on specific websites.
 I've never seen a product that can do this sort of thing.
 
 If you don't mind me asking, what are people uploading? 4gig is a lot
 for a single file of any type except maybe DVD images. Is there no
 way the user can upload several (read lots) smaller files instead of
 one big one? 
 
 -Stut


Have a look at Filechucker http://encodable.com/filechucker/

My company purchased this program for a small project; It's quite
inexpensive ($39 USD) and works well.  It's written in perl and does not
post to PHP, and we've used it to upload large files and it seems to handle
them just fine.

HTH,

Brad

Robin,

This is a very good solution, and I thank you for your response.  However I
had been experimenting with dns_get_record() before my original post and it
produces strange results on my machine.  And your example, on my machine,
produces no output.

?
$dns_result = dns_get_record(www.google.com, DNS_A, $authns, $addt);

print_r($dns_result);
print_r($authns);
print_r($addt);

/* result

[PHP] Parse domain from URL

[Brad Fuller]

Hey guys,

I'm faced with an interesting problem, and wondering if there's an easy
solution.

I need to strip out a domain name from a URL, and ignore subdomains (like
www)

I can use parse_url to get the hostname. And my first thought was to take
the last 2 segments of the hostname to get the domain.  So if the URL is
http://www.example.com/
Then the domain is example.com.   If the URL is http://example.org/ then
the domain is example.org.

This seemed to work perfectly until I come across a URL like
http://www.example.co.uk/
My script thinks the domain is co.uk.

So I added a bit of code to account for this, basically if the 2nd to last
segment of the hostname is co then take the last 3 segments.

Then I stumbled across a URL like http://www.example.com.au/

So it occurred to me that this is not the best solution, unless I have a
definitive list of all exceptions to go off of.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Brad

 Well, it's not very clean, but if you just need to remove
 the subdomain/CNAME from the domain
 
 ?
 $hostname = parse_url($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);
 $domsplit = explode('.',$hostname['path']);
 for($i=1;$icount($domsplit);$i++) {
 $i == (count($domsplit) - 1) ? $domain .= $domsplit[$i] :
 $domain .= $domsplit[$i]..; }
 echo $domain;
 
 
 There's probably a much better way to do it, but in the
 interest of a quick response, that's one way.

Dan,

Yes, that's basically what my code already does.

The problem is that what if the url is http://yahoo.co.uk/; (note the lack
of a subdomain)

Your script thinks that the domain is co.uk.  Just like my existing code
does.

So we can't count on taking the last 2 segments.  And we can't count on
ignoring the first segment.  (The subdomain could be anything, not just www)

Thx,

Brad

 This guy is going to have a lot of stuff for us. We are slightly over
 budget, but he is very happy thus far.

 When I walk into this one, he had a basic page and going crazy trying to
 write a basic DB query.

 I hooked him up with phpbb and some how to get it don instruction and now
he
 needs this piece of customer code.



 Concept:

 Joe worker logs in and says I am available on yaddy yah days (calendar mod
 is kind of works?) along with his description etc.



 Joe Captain pays 10 buck to select 5 workers over the course of a month or
 has to pay more.

 He views (without last name, email, or phone number) Joe worker, selects
 days he is need based on available days on calendar.

 Email is sent to Joe Captain with all of worker contact info and Joe
 receives email notice as well.



 Record of transaction is keep in a DB table, a count =5 should be stored
in
 a table in case Joe Captain does not use his 5 picks up to 30 days.

 Hence Flowchart:

 Collect Calendar dates and user id variable for FORM data

 On SUBMIT, POST

 Db 1 for count Captain Email Worker email DB record



 Goal:

 If I provide a basic submit button which emails Joe Worker and Joe Captain
 with user profile info and a record in the database. i.e grab the variable
 from a selected profile and submit = 2 emails and count = 5 or error. We
 are golden!

 If you have any tricks with the calendar. People will be very happy.

Maybe you know what you're doing, more than likely you don't. Posting logins
and passwords to your server on a public mailing list is usually tantamount
to idiocy.

Cheers,
Rob.

RE: [PHP] PhP and Java login trouble (can someone help a brother out whom is truely trying to understand?)

[Brad Sumrall]

I have these to independently working scripts. 1 is php, the other is
javascript. For obvious reason, to separate logins are not appropriate.
It has been recommended to make a separate function, not sure how to do
this
Common sense says, carry the variable from php to javascripting. I am
clueless on where to look on this common sense solution.

I am 2.5 weeks into this madness. I know when I find the solution, it will
be the one that was biting me on the nose.

I want to learn and understand this, but desperately need help from friends!

I will post the 2 complete code pages below..

Input, suggestion or solutions would truly be appreciated.

The first will be the original code that is javascripting friendly.
The second will be my own php working code.

Number one works fine for loging into a FCKEditor application, but is
failing with phpbb.

Number two works perfectly with phpbb applications and outside php pages
requiring phpbb related session controls, but fails sessions with the
javascripting based FCKEditor.

Sincerely,

Brad

 +--+-+--+-
 +-++
 id   | bigint(20) unsigned |  | PRI |

 created_on_gmt   | datetime|  | | -00-00
 00:00:00 ||
 +--+-+--+-

 I want to end up with two PHP arrays.  One for set_type_id = 22 and
 one for set_type_id=21. 
 
 (1) one query method:
 SELECT * from collection WHERE set_type_id=22 OR set_type_id=21;
 ...do query... while( $row = $this-db-fetch_array_row() ){
   if ($row['set_type_id'] == 21){
   $array_a[] = $row;
   } else {
   $array_b[] = $row;
   }
 }
 
 
 (2) two query method:
 SELECT * from collection WHERE set_type_id=22;
 ...do query...
 while( $row = $this-db-fetch_array_row() ){
   $array_a[] = $row;
 }
 
 SELECT * from collection WHERE set_type_id=21;
 ...do query...
 while( $row = $this-db-fetch_array_row() ){
   $array_b[] = $row;
 }
 
 
 Which method is better?  Take a hit using MySQL or take a hit using
 PHP?

I really don't think you'd notice any difference, unless your table contains
a large amount of data and is not properly indexed.  And if that were the
case, you'd notice a hit on just one query anyway.

I'd stick with the 2 query model, but instead of creating arrays, just loop
through the query results to output your data, no sense looping to make an
array when you're just going to end up looping through the array to output;
that seems redundant to me :P

Just my $.02

RE: [PHP] PhP and Java login trouble

[Brad Sumrall]

I have been hunting all around that website you referred me too looking for
javascripting information and can find nothing. I know a little bit of php
but little to nothing about javascripting.

I have been beating my head against the wall on this one for weeks now, I am
so close!

 ?php
   if(!isset($_SESSION[userid]))
   {
 ?
 form action=/phpbb/login.php method=post target=_top 
 onsubmit=return BBValidateLogin();

You don't have a javascript function called 'BBValidateLogin'.


You have one called validateLogin which references completely different 
form fields.

 Hello,
 
 I want to select two dates one being todays date and the

 Ive tried this but it does not work...
 
 $today = date('Y-m-d');
 $result = sqlite_query($db, SELECT * FROM domains WHERE date =
 '-00-00' AND '$today');
 
 I just get items with '-00-00' returned or if I reverse it ie...
 
 WHERE date = '$today'AND '-00-00');
 
 I just get  $today items returned.
 
 I also tried using OR instead of AND ie...
 
 WHERE date = '-00-00' OR '$today');
 
 But that seems to be returning all items in the db.
 
 
 Thanks.


SELECT * FROM domains WHERE (date = '-00-00' OR date = '$today')

I also use NuSOAP with PHP5, all I did is edit nusoap.php and rename the
