Re: [PHP] File permissions do not seem to be my friend
Brian, This is a php.ini setting, so a FS permissions problem. The sysadmin needs to disable safe mode on your behalf.

I set the permissions on the enclosing folder to 777, and all the attempted writes are within this folder: SAFE MODE restriction in effect. The script is not allowed to access /blah/blah/blah...

Re: [PHP] How to destroy HTTP authentication (from PHP)?
Olaf,
How about generating a hash-enhanced (TM) realm name, such as:
Basic Realm Session HASH
Then store that timestamp-based hash in the session. When you want to
user to bugger off, change the realm name. This is just a theory, and
I've not tested it at all.

Hi all,
Alright: here's a bit of a challenge (so as to avoid the word issue)
;) my colleagues have run into previously: how to kill HTTP
authentication...
I remember that they never did figure that one out, and I too will now
have to get my hands dirty with trying to find a proper way to do so.
Simply unsetting the PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PWD variables doesn't
seem to do any magic, and using a forced 401 ('Unauthorized') HTTP
header is also highly ideal (not to say blatantly dirty)...
S, has anyone found a proper way of achieving this (ideally from PHP)?
Also, in case this cannot be done from PHP, does anyone know of any
Apache modules (or tricks/tweaks/settings) that will allow HTTP
authentication to be neatly destroyed?
Thanks in advance, and cheers,

Re: [PHP] Hide email addresses from spam bots
Gerry, If a human being can read it, so can a spambot. New techniques might be developed all the time, but you shouldn't bet against spammers bringing themselves up to date with those techniques too. If the user wishes to display their e-mail address on a web page, they should ensure they have good spam-filtering. You might consider using some sort of CAPTCHA image, but that isn't guaranteed to work flawlessly, and reading an e-mail address in a CAPTCHA image would be hard work.

I select all the options in that list and hit the submit button.
Obviously, a select list, will return each value with the same name to

To resolve this we have to create an array out of our select name:

I added the square brakets to the name...now when I select all the
options on the list I can read all values individually.

Try:
$t1 = ;
$t2 = ;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
list($t1, $t2) = $row;

Other (anything else)
To explain a little further, I want anything that starts with a number to
show up first in the sorted list, then anything that starts with a letter,
and finally anything that starts with some other character. My usort
function I'm using now gives me results close to this, but it sorts it as
follows (which is wrong for what I need):
Numbers (0-9)
Other (anything else)
Letters (Aa-Zz)
They are all sorted properly alphabetically, but not in the group order
that I need them in. Here is the usort function I'm using right now:
function myUsort($x, $y)
{
if(strtolower($x) == strtolower($y)) return 0;
if(strtolower($x) strtolower($y)) return -1;
return 1;
}
function myUsort($x, $y) {
if (ctype_digit($x[0])) {
} elseif (ctype_alpha($x[0]}
}
As I stated above, this provides me with the proper alphabetical results,
but I need it tweaked. Basically this function will give a sorted list
like this:
007
90210
__underscore
abra-cadabra
Zebra
But I need the function to provide a sorted list like this:
007
90210
abra-cadabra

__underscore
Anyone know what I need to do to get these results? Please let me know.

Re: [PHP] Problem: Distortion while saving text file.
Could it be the other way around, i.e. Windows is stripping slashes, and
Linux is not? How does $contents come to exist in the script?

$file=fopen('content/' . $site . '_' . $lang . '.txt', w);

tdinput type=file name=File_1.CSV/td

However if I loop through the $_FILES array like this:

echo '$value = '.$value.'br /';
}
$key = File_1_CSV
$value['name'] = File_1.CSV
$key = File_2_CSV
$value['name'] = File_2.CSV
The . is replaced with an underscore in the $key value. I could get around
this with a substr() but it seems a little inelegant, can anyone tell me why
this is happening please?

Re: [PHP] Unnecessary if statement? Programming technique
Hi,
I imagine this kind of thing is not especially taxing on the processor,
especially if the condition is a fairly simple comparison. That said, I
have very little understanding aside from my own limited experience of
what runs slowly!
If you're worried about code maintenance, then move the code out to a
function and pass the parts that vary as parameters.

Steve McGill wrote:
Hi,
David is right about the unwanted side-effect. Thanks for the idea though.
Unfortunately the 'greater problem' is not so great, I've just been doing
this for a while now and find myself programming loops like these so often
and I've never got round to testing if a simple IF statement is a major
drain on the CPU. Somehow I doubt it.
I got this reply from someone direct to my mail address, which seems to sum
it up:
--
In truth you are not evaluating the whole if block just the condition
and since its such a simple condition I can't see how it would be at
all taxing on the server. In your specific case I can't think of a
better way to do it either.
--
I'll try and think of a better example:
?
$bool = true; // this is set dynamically and not known in advance
while(true) {
if($bool) { // this condition tested in every single loop
// do first code
} else {
// do second code
}
}
?
and I am wondering if the compiler is smart enough to turn this into:
?
$bool = true; // this is set dynamically and not known in advance
if($bool) { // this condition only tested once
while(true) {
// do first code
}
} else {
while(true) {
// do second code
}
}
?
I realise this might be hard to follow without giving specific examples and
code.
In this case, the coding style of the 2nd example seems far better, but
sometimes the 2 blocks of code are practically identical and it's a
programmer's nightmare to have the blocks of code in 2 places and to
remember to keep them both updated.
I'm also assuming that using function calls is also much slower than
evaluating a very simple IF statement.
Thanks for your interest.
Best wishes,
Steve

They have ?= placed throughout and I am not sure what they are and how to fix them at this point. Stupid question, I know, but... not stupid, although a 'google' might have helped, regardless you have already had the answer. I find it funny that you say 'fix them' - one of the things [some of] the core developers are looking to get rid of is this shorthand syntax (according to posts on internals@lists.php.net) ... something to do with XML compatibility ... for now its valid php syntax though :-).

Re: [PHP] understanding session vars ?
Gregory, Are you always setting $_SESSION['menu'] to the contents of $_GET['menu']? If so, the second link will set $_SESSION['menu'] to null. You need to check the contents of $_GET['menu'] first before setting, i.e. if (isset($_GET['menu'])) $_SESSION['menu'] = $_GET['menu']; Cheers, David Grant Gregory Machin wrote: Hi I'm a bit stuck on session var, and thier implamentation, or my perseption thier of.

Re: [PHP] understanding session vars ?
Gregory,
Values in the $_SESSION superglobal will persist over pages so long as
session_start() is called on each page.
Cheers,

My test code is for test.php which is intended to call it's self, and
starts with sesstion_start().
buy does not disply x after link2 is clicked on, but only y..
what am I missing ?
x wouldn't display because it depends on $_GET['item'] being set,
which isn't. Try var_dump($_SESSION) instead of the conditional echoing
of the variables.

Try preg_match instead of ereg.

Hi list
I still fail to understand why regular expressions are causing me such a hard
time.
I used and tested my regexp in kregexpeditor (comes with Quanta [kdewebdev])
but when I put it in the php script it fails.
ereg('^([\w]{3,3})[\s]([\d]{2,2})[\s]([\d]{2,2})[:]([\d]{2,2})[:]([\d]{2,2})'
Does not match my query string.
Which is
Nov 22 06:51:36
Any ideas why? I mean Line start, followed by 3 word chars, followed by a
space, followed by 2 digits, followed by a space, followed by two digits,
folowed by a colon followed by 2 digits and followed by a colon, should match
that date?
With kind regards
Andy
