you probably won't be able to edit PHP.ini with shared-hosting.

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

A sample of the problem anc be seen at www.dallypost.com/ranch/page5688.php 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 HEAD: META HTTP-EQUIV=content-type CONTENT=text/html; charset=utf-8 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.

Subject: [PHP] Persistent PHP web application?
Dear list,
My web application (an online classifieds server) requires a set of
fairly large global arrays which contain vital information that most all
the page scripts rely upon for information such as the category list,
which fields belong to each category, and so on. Additionally, there are
a large number of function definitions (more than 13,000 lines of code
in all just for these global definitions).
These global arrays and functions never change between requests.
However, the PHP engine destroys and recreates them every time. After
having spent some serious time doing benchmarking (using Apache Bench),
I have found that this code takes at least 7ms to parse per request on
my dual Xeon 2.4ghz server (Zend Accelerator in use*). This seriously
cuts into my server's peak capacity, reducing it by more than half.
My question is: is there a way to define a global set of variables and
functions ONCE per Apache process, allowing each incoming hit to run a
handler function that runs within a persistent namespace? OR, is it
possible to create some form of shared variable and function namespace
that each script can tap?
AFAIK, mod_python, mod_perl, Java, etc. all allow you to create a
persistent, long-running application with hooks/handlers for individual
Apache requests. I'm surprised I haven't found a similar solution for
PHP.
In fact, according to my work in the past few days, if an application
has a large set of global functions and variable definitions, mod_python
FAR exceeds the performance of mod_php, even though Python code runs
significantly slower than PHP code (because in mod_python you can put
all these definitions in a module that is loaded only once per Apache
process).
The most promising prospect I've come across is FastCGI, which for Perl
and other languages, allows you to run a while loop that sits and
receives incoming requests (e.g. while(FCGI::accept() = 0) {..}).
However, the PHP/FastCGI modality seems to basically compare to mod_php:
every request still creates and destroys the entire application
(although the PHP interpreter itself does persist).
Essentially I want to go beyond a persistent PHP *interpreter* (mod_php,
PHP/FastCGI) and create a persistent PHP *application*... any
suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Regards,
J. Whiting
* - Please note that I am using the Zend Accelerator (on Redhat
Enterprise with Apache 1.3) to cache the intermediate compiled PHP code.
My benchmarks (7ms+) are after the dramatic speedup provided by the
accelerator. I wouldn't even bother benchmarking this without the
compiler cache, but it is clear that a compiler cache does not prevent
PHP from still having to run the (ableit precompiled) array and function
definition code itself.

[PHP] ob_start -- output buffer problem
Hi all,
to quote from http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ob-start.php
void ob_start ( [string output_callback])
An optional output_callback function may be specified. This function
takes a string as a parameter and should return a string. The function
will be called when ob_end_flush() is called, or when the output
buffer is flushed to the browser at the end of the request.
My callback function does not get called unless I manually call
ob_end_flush().
I'm not interested in calling ob_end_flush() at all, I want my callback
function to be called when the output buffer is flushed to the browser
at the end of the request so the question is why isn't this happening?
here's my example:
?php
$x = new test();
echo hey;
// IF next line is uncommented so it manually flushes
// then the finish method WILL get called. But I need
// get around calling anything at the *end* of a script.
//ob_end_flush();
class test {
var $msg_file = cooked_html/error_log2;
function test() {
ob_start(array($this, finish));
$this-msg(got to initialize);
}
function finish($page) {
$this-msg(GOT TO FINISH!!!);
return $page;
}
function msg ($msg) {
$msg = \n . exec(date) . ::: . $msg;
$fp = fopen($this-msg_file, a) or die (cannot open .$this-msg_file);
fputs ($fp, $msg, strlen($msg)) or die (cannot write to .$this-msg_file);
fclose($fp);
}
}
?
But if ob_end_flush() IS called then the error log WILL have the GOT TO
FINISH message.
Any ideas on why the output is not being flushed automatically?
thanks

if i replace the: '\1a\2' with '\11\2' it will understand to replace with

Re: [PHP] passing an array in a link
from my experience, you don't really have to worry much on the space issue. is the delimiter to determine that the string terminates and a new argument begins next. and very often, the browser will do an auto conversion from space to %20 when you click on the link.

$result will always hold an int value if the query does not contain any

[PHP] Re: Random mirrors and download quota
how about using the counter to store an id of the mirrors instead of randomly picking one? this will provide you a sequential traverse through all mirror sites. if there are 10 sites, the counter will always be from 0 - 9. this way each mirror site will have equal share on hits. so if the counter == 2, your script will know that the next hit will be to mirror site 2. $_nextSite = (isset($_nextSite))?++$_nextSite % 10:0; the above code will always ensure the counter counts from: 0 - 9 - 0 - ... this way, you can store all counters (into database?) on the main site for all mirrors.

Re: [PHP] does a form submit from a http page to a https ensure securedata?
thanks for the insights. :) basically the 2 files are from 2 different domains saving to the same database server. the 2 sites share the same userbase. and when the registration form is submitted to the 2nd site, upon successful registration, it will redirect back to the 1st site and display a success page. otherwise it will redirect back to the 1st site and prompting them an error. you probably wonder why the complexity of the above scenario. basically the 2nd site has a ssl cert while the 1st site doesn't. so as a cost saving measure, the 1st site will be using the 2nd site's ssl cert to complete the user registration process. hope the above make sense to you. lance Michael Sweeney wrote: Your form action parameter has an absolute url specifying an https protocol. When the browser submits the form, it uses the url you specify which is https. So the request is going to be encrypted. You might consider serving the form page from https as well to kind of tighten things up a little, but the data will be posted under https which is an encrypted connection. Your main problem is going to be the fact that the http and https services are accessing two different file system spaces (or they should be unless you've got your server badly misconfigured) so the http://...register.php is going to be a different file from the https://...register.php.

yes, the + is a whitespace. hm... a bug, you could be right on that. i dont have a copy of php4.2.1 on linux to test and see if it is just windows2k that is giving the problem, or php4.2.1 is the main culprit. but i did get the same piece of code to run on php4.0.6 on linux. it runs smoothing in there. btw, i forgot to mention that i am running php4.2.1 on win2k sp2 server. Stuart Dallas wrote: As far as the SMTP envelope is concerned, the To:, Cc: and Bcc: recipients are equal. It looks like a bug in PHP to me, but I don't have time to delve into the code to confirm it. It should be stripping the Cc: and the space (which shows in your log as a +) from the Cc: line.

Re: [PHP] Cc / Bcc don't work on win2k but on linux???
i downloaded php4.2.2dev and tried my codes on it. still giving me the same problem. Cc: is not been parsed correctly. so i changed to cc: and CC: no errors thrown out this time. however, only the recipient specified in To: managed to receive the email. the one specified under CC: never gets it. i looked at the smtp log file and i can only find the To: been executed. no CC: was shown on the log file. seems that php never send the CC: list to the smtp server.

hi dan,
its because the html text is from user input. and i dont wanna spend too
much time educating them on coding with php. sometime its a pain trying
to get them to understand the codes. so i just wanna give them some
simple commands in php whereby they can happily insert date formats on a
page. something like what phpBB did on the [url] thingie.

Why not merge your PHP and HTML straight up like this?
span class=normal?php echo date('m d y') . $phpVar; ?/span
Then, just have the whole HTML file parsed as PHP.

Re: [PHP] Regular expression newbie question, convert this: [::word1\ word2 \ word3::] to : .word1 word2 word3.
hi, thanks for the code. i tried. it only worked if the string is simply
the one i wanna convert. but that particular string is in the middle of
a long text, and there are multiple occurance, it won't.
however, i did manage to come up with this code that worked. but i
believe it can be improved on. it will identify all occurance of the
specified pattern and do the necessary replacement throughout the whole
string.
preg_match_all(|\[::(.*)::\]|U, $longTxt, $matchedResult);
for ($idx = 0; $idx count($matchedResult[1]); $idx++) {
$extract = stripslashes($matchedResult[1][$idx]);
$longTxt = str_replace([::{$matchedResult[1][$idx]}::],
\.$extract.\, $longTxt);

While I don't know if this is really what you need, it does do exactly
what you want to do in your example:
$Replace['\\'] = '';
$Replace['::'] = '.';
$Replace['['] = '';
$Replace[']'] = '';

hi, i was developing an application that will read in the content of a html file. and within this html file contains php variables which will be replaced using the eval() function with its required value. and within this html, i want to be able to run php functions. however, due to the fact that characters need to be escaped so that eval() can process it, i have to make use of addslashes() to escape all that are embedded in the html file. with the escaped, eval() will be able to work and evaluate the php variable and instead of: eval(\$rs = \span class=normal$phpVar/span\;); (won't work) it will now be: eval(\$rs = \span class=\normal\$phpVar/span\;); (work) and to call a date() function on the above text, this format will work: eval(\$rs = \span class=\normal\.date(m d y).$phpVar/span\;); since the text that is passed into eval() came from a html/php/inc (whatever you name it) file, there is no way you will know that a particular text is in fact a php function. so i thought of prefixing and suffixing php function with [::date(m d y)::] and it will be helpful in the sense that the application will know that oh, this is a php function, i need to . . it so that eval will not throw me an error. with that, now the html file's content will be something like: span class=normal[::date(m d y,$phpVar)::]/span after using addslashes(), it will be: span class=\normal\[::date(\m d y\,$phpVar)::]/span for the above text, in order for eval() to parse correctly, it has to be in this format: eval(\$rs = \span class=\normal\.date(m d y,$phpVar)./span\;) and there is always a chance that the html text could contain more than 1 block of [:: phpfunction ::] thats why i came up with that piece of code to convert the text to a string that eval will be able to understand. and at the end of it, i will be echoing $rs to display the final result. you probably will wonder why dont i use include() and require()? that way, php will be handling all the above without requiring additional work. however, due to the way the result has to be handled, i couldn't use include nor require. lance -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I have a database that is setup as follows
CREATE TABLE test (

PRIMARY KEY (id)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
I have a page after a form that confirms all data to be entered the html is
as follows
text=\test \'ve\
id=1
form action=./commitcard.php
input type=hidden name=text value=\test I\'ve\
input type=hidden name=id value=1
input type=submit name=submit value=Commit to database!
/form
however in the next page I am doing a print of the insert statement for
testing and all I get is the following
insert into test (id,text) values ('1','\')
I have tried the following
$test = stripslashes($test);
but it just gets worse any ideas would be helpful
I am using php 4.0.6, apache 1.3.20, mysql 3.23.42, and Linux kernel 2.4.3

Thanks, but most variables such as SERVER_ADDR and SERVER_NAME are not set
when you run a PHP script from the command line (or from cron). Write a

how little environment information you get.
