Re: [PHP] Rewind foreach loop

[Jeffery Fernandez]

I think the best option for me is to refactorise my code a bit to cater to my 
situation. Thanks all for your help.

No, I am only rewinding if there is an error. Then I have the script 
auto-learning from the error, fix a config file and then want to go back to 
the array pointer to re-execute the process.

That will only give me the value of the previous index. What I want is to 
rewind the array pointer and continue with the loop.

[PHP] Rewind foreach loop

[Jeffery Fernandez]

Hi all,

Is it possible to rewind a foreach loop? eg:


$numbers = array(0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10);

foreach ($numbers as $index => $value)
{
if ($value == 5)
{
prev($numbers);
}
echo "Value: $value" . PHP_EOL;
}

The above doesn't seem to work. In one of my scenarios, when I encounter and 
error in a foreach loop, I need the ability to rewind the array pointer by 
one. How can I achieve this?

regards,
Jeffery

[PHP] Array Slice without loosing index

[Jeffery Fernandez]

Hi all,

I am wanting to retain the array indexes after it being sliced. Here is what I 
have so far.

if ($user_count > $group_count)
{
for ($i = 0; $i < $user_count; $i+=$group_count)
{
$output = array_slice($properties['users'], $i, $group_count);
print_r($output);
}
}

Every time the array is sliced it results with arrays which have new idexes. 
Is there a way I can retain the array indexes when slicing the array.

regards,
Jeffery

[PHP] Generating sequence of AlphaNumber

[Jeffery Fernandez]

Hi all,

I am having trouble generating a sequence of numbers from the following start 
value:
AX0001

what I have done so far is loop through each character and check if its a 
alphabet and separating the characters and digits.

But when I increment the digits, its strips of the leading zeros. How can I 
get a sequence of values like:

AX0001
AX0002
AX0003
AX0004
.
AX0099
AX0100

and so on ?

Some WYSIWYG editors do this nicely. Look at the code of FCKeditor, it has 
some javascript functions to cleanup the Word document characters.

Any clues Nathan? 

I have done some further testing and found that if I copy the working code 
(standalone script) and put it amongst the application code, that doesn't 
work either. I am thinking its a locale or character encoding problem. Any 
thoughts ?

I don't know if this will make a difference.. have you checked the permissions

[PHP] SimpleXMLElement is not Simple

[Jeffery Fernandez]

I am having nightmares with this bit off code.

The following code work perfectly fine:

$soap_request_string = <<
http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"; 
xmlns:ns1="urn:Gateway_Proxy" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
xmlns:enc="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>

  http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>
61ecc268-1cd0-f468
15495

&payment_id=61ecc268-1cd0-f468
Order from Student Library Fees with Payment Id: 
61ecc268-1cd0-f468
  


XML;

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($soap_request_string, NULL, false, 
'http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope');
print_r($xml);
$ns = $xml->getNamespaces(true);
//print_r($ns);

foreach ($xml->children($ns['env']) as $body)
{
//printf("%s", $body->getName());
   
foreach ($body->children($ns['ns1']) as $function)
{
printf("function %s()", $function->getName());
   
foreach ($function->children() as $parameters)
{
printf("%s => \"%s\"", $parameters->getName(), 
$parameters);
}
}
}


However when the XML string is coming from the database it does not work. The 
Field and table have a collation of "utf8_unicode_ci"

$soap_request_string = trim(str_replace(array("\n"), '', 
$record['SoapRequestEnvelope']));
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($soap_request_string, NULL, false, 
'http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope');
print_r($xml);


The above code is supposed to print out the following (for me to proceed 
further):

SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[Body] => SimpleXMLElement Object
(
)
)


but only returns:
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
)


The XL string from the database looks exactly like this (after replacing new 
lines):

http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"; 
xmlns:ns1="urn:Gateway_Proxy" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
xmlns:enc="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>5ce30dcc-7df7-04e810&payment_id=5ce30dcc-7df7-04e8Order
 from Student Library Fees with Payment Id: 
5ce30dcc-7df7-04e8


I can't figure out whats wrong with the code. Any suggestions?

cheers,
Jeffery

Ho big are those faxes? 4294967295 bytes = 4GB

have you tried executing that SQL directly into the database? Does it return

[PHP] Extract SOAP Request Data

[Jeffery Fernandez]

I have a SOAP request logger which logs all SOAP requests/responses being made 
on the system. What I want to do is extract the function name being called and 
the params passed to it. The following is an example XML Request:


http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope";
xmlns:ns1="urn:Gateway_Proxy"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:enc="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>

  http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>
61ecc268-1cd0-f468
15495

&payment_id=61ecc268-1cd0-f468
Order from Student Library Fees with Payment Id: 
61ecc268-1cd0-f468
  

 

What I want to do is extract the function name and the parameter names and its 
values.

I have done the folloing so far:
$soap_request_string = <<
http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"; 
xmlns:ns1="urn:Gateway_Proxy" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
xmlns:enc="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>

  http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding";>
61ecc268-1cd0-f468
15495

&payment_id=61ecc268-1cd0-f468
Order from Student Library Fees with Payment Id: 
61ecc268-1cd0-f468
  


XML;


$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($soap_request_string, NULL, false);
print_r($xml);
$ns = $xml->getNamespaces(true);
print_r($ns);
foreach ($xml->xpath('//env:Body') as $body)
{
//print_r($body);
foreach ($body->children($ns['env'], true) as $child)
{
print_r($child);
}
} 

which does not return any SimpleXMLElements Objects. I can't figure out how to 
extract the values which are tied to the Name Space.

A description of the problem is in detail here: 
http://www.devnetwork.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=74161

just following up on this problem. I am using PHP 5.2.3. I also do remember 
that previously in older versions of PHP, I used to see the session data was 
the actual serialised data. But now with my testing it just seems to be one 
long string. Which leads me to beleive that there is some kind of encoding 
taking place.

Re: [PHP] session_decode from session handler

[Jeffery Fernandez]

I have a similar problem I am facing with session data stored in the database 
from the set_session_handler.

What I am trying to do is show a list of online users and the page they are 
currenlty viewing. For this purpose I am query the sessions table to get the 
list of session and from that I loop through to get the session data of each 
online user. But for some reason, I cannot decode/un-serialise the session 
data. Any pointers ?

Jeffery

All I’m trying to do is get an OpenBSD 3.6 box with the following

MySQL 4.1 (or 5.0.2)
Apache 2
Mcrypt
Mhash
Libmcrypt
PHP
OpenSSL
And that’s it. Nothing fancy, just something that is highly secure and 
easy to lock down to 2 ports. I’ve gotten a bunch of shell scripts 
written up for each portion of the install.. most of them are 
./configure –prefix=/usr/local/(program name) with the configuration 
files in the conf directory for each.

I’m currently hung up on Mcrypt. It’s a total monster! It’s a key 
component in so many programs and libraries, and yet Googl’ing news 
groups, checking out the main site for them, and going through the 
config.log files I can’t understand a darn thing anyone is saying.

I’m an intro PHP fella.. I can tie into databases, loop through if

encryption is something completely alien to me. I’ve done ASP before 
and installing the packages may not be as 
secure/customizable/reliable/intelligent.. it involved double-clicking 
and maybe doing something in DOS like adding a “-v” at the end.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d kindly RTFM and leave the vicious cerebral

has experienced something like this before and can bestow a nugget of 
wisdom upon me.

debugging it :-(

I did change it for php5 (to get rid of E_STRICT warnings IIR)
- but the change was fairly cosmetic:
the class def starts like:
class MDASort {
private $dataArray; //the array we want to sort.
private $sortKeys;  //the order in which we want the array to be 
sorted.

if you change that to:
class MDASort {
var $dataArray; //the array we want to sort.
var $sortKeys;  //the order in which we want the array to be sorted.
then the class should work under php4 as advertised (adding an '&' as you
do below in the callback definition wouldn't hurt either).
...
and within my class I am calling the following two lines:
   // Sort the array
   $this->mArraySortKey = 'score';
   usort($this->mSearchData, array(& $this, 'sort_array'));

cool, taking apart someone elses code and rewriting it one of the best 
ways
of learning/understanding IMHO. btw the '&' before $this is not 
strictly required,
but it should save you a few cycles :-)

You always learn by re-writing someone elses code ;-)
I had done the changes to the variable declaration and also changed the 
constructor name to be the name of the class and it still gave me 
errors. Perhaps I will test it without any Error reporting on... needs 
some tweaking I guess.

which wont help much - assuming what you say is true

sort method from the class:
function sort()
{
   if(count($this->sortKeys)) {
   usort($this->dataArray, array($this,"_sortcmp"));
   }
}

Thanks jochem, I had a second look at it and I figured it out. I had

ok, does that mean using usort() on your array works? my class is just a
fancy wrapper around usort - and ofcourse it allows you to sort on 
more than
1 'column' in the second dimension of the array (kind of like a 
multi-column
sort in an SQL statement). -- the point being that the usort() example 
Kurt
(I think that was his name) sent would work also.

anyway glad you could use it. :-)

Yes the example sent by Kurt Yoder worked for me. I coudn't work out the 
errors with the class you sent me. I realised it was written for PHP5 in

 /**

 return 0;
   else if ( $x[$this->mArraySortKey] < $y[$this->mArraySortKey] )
 return 1;
   else
 return -1;
 }

and within my class I am calling the following two lines:
   // Sort the array
   $this->mArraySortKey = 'score';
   usort($this->mSearchData, array(& $this, 'sort_array'));

That would do exactly what you asked, however, it sounds like if you

[PHP] HTTP Authenticate via PHP

[Jeffery Fernandez]

Hi,
I am trying to find out if its possible to authenticate a page against 
an HTTP authentication. Basically what I am trying to do is make 
available the stats page of the Cpanel to the admin interface of a site. 
When accessing the stats via the cpanel the user needs to login via http 
authentication.

Is it possible for me to store the username password credentials within 
the php page and pass that across via headers to authenticate the page 
for viewing the stats. The main purpose is to make the webstats 
transparent to the admin user so they don't have to enter any 
username/password. I tried putting the username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] into the 
url of an iframe page(session controlled) but stupid IE spits the 
authentication as a pop-up (login window). Hope I have explained well 
enough.

cheers,
Jeffery

Make sure the pear libraries are within the include path of PHP. Open

You don't need to restart Apache, or load any modules. To find out
