[PHP] clear a mysql table
I need to clear a table (cache) from a database based on the database size. Our web site uses cached pages. Our webhost only allow us 100 MB storage. Usually the database is just 10 MB, but when a search engine crawls our calendar, then the storage is quickly 108 MB. The system reports then mathematically correct: Space left on database -8MB !!! I plan therefore a web page, which is triggered by cron every hour and will just clear the table. Can I use just: mysql_query(DELETE FROM cash) or die(mysql_error()); or do I need to loop through all records? or is there a better solution? How can I get the database size? bye R. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Unsubscribe issues
The guy who wrote the guide lines for unsubscribing must be a lawyer or so. To make a page to find out where the unsubscribe link is in each kind of email type is paranoid. I mean the link is coming from the mail server, so just to say: [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be sufficient, wouldn't it? Maybe some (other lawyer) could clean up that unsubscribe page.

[PHP] syntax error
On a system with php4 and mysql 4.x I had these lines:
require(../db-config); // includes $dbhost, $buname, $dbpass
$db = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuname, $dbpass);
mysql_select_db($dbname,$db);
$sql = SELECT * FROM CATEGORY WHERE .;
$result = mysql_query($sql,$db);
$num=mysql_num_rows($result);
while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
Moving the *.php to a php5 and mysql 5.x site I get these errors:
PHP Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL
result resource in ...
PHP Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL

[PHP] phpmyadmin
I would like to use this time phpmyadmin (2.11.3) to setup for a new user a database, which he can use to setup his own tables for his web site. User abc should get his own database xyz. I am not sure if I did it correct, and if it is safe to do so: A == 1. I created an empty database xyz (main page of phpmyadmin) 2. I added a new user on the Privileges page with: User: abc Host: Any (%) Password: (yes) Global privileges: (Data:) SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, FILE (Structure:) CREATE, ALTER, INDEX, DROP, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES (Administration:)(nothing ticked) (Resource limits:) (nothing ticked) What does it mean so far? Can the user abc already access data of any database? B == I found Database-specific privileges for the user abc, where I added the database xyz and ticked: (Data:) SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE (Structure:) CREATE, ALTER, INDEX, DROP, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES (Administration:)(nothing ticked) What confuses me is that I have already some databases setup for my own web, but none of the users has B attached. Currently I am going away from a single person using the database to allow others also to use the database.

[PHP] scanned in manipulate to a pdf
I got a Windows program, which can scan in a book by scanning in the pages 1,3,5, n turn the book by 180 degrees and scan in from the back side n-1,n-3, ... 2. Then the program made a pdf book of the scanned in pages. I am not sure if a php program is the right way to do, but I thought to do the same by scanning in the pages (p0001, p0002, p0003, .) and then work on each page in a batch to turn p0001 by 180 degree and rename it to a0001, rename p000(n-1) to a0002, turn p0002 by 180 degree and rename it to a0003 and add each page to a book.pdf Is php right for that? bye Ronald

[PHP] BBcode
I tested BBcode (Pear extension) with that code:
if (!empty($_POST['bbcode'])) {
require_once 'HTML/BBCodeParser.php';
$parser = new HTML_BBCodeParser(parse_ini_file('BBCodeParser.ini'));
echo $parser-qParse($_POST['bbcode']);
}
?
form action=?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ? method=POST
textarea name=bbcode
?php echo @$_POST['bbcode']; ?
/textarea
input type=submit /
/form
it works!
I added it to a production page, by moving BBCodeParser.ini ouside of
htdocs directory. Added at the beginning of the php file:
require_once 'HTML/BBCodeParser.php';
and at the wished output:
echo TD bgcolor='yellow';
$parser = new HTML_BBCodeParser(parse_ini_file('../BBCodeParser.ini'));
echo FONT face=$FFACE color=$FCOLOR;
echo $parser-qParse($DB_DETAIL);
echo /TD;
I tested the input of my form with:
[list] [*]normal [*][b]bold[/b] [*][u]underline[/u] [*][i]italic[/i]
[/list]
The database field in got these data, but the output on the screen is
also just:
[list] [*]normal [*][b]bold[/b] [*][u]underline[/u] [*][i]italic[/i]
[/list]
What am I doing wrong?

[PHP] checkbox unchecked
I have now tried to add many of the security hints on a web page and
come to a problem.
I am checking if the allowed fields match the sent fields.
From the database I get the information if a checkbox is checked or not:
?php if($DB_a ==y) {
$checked=checked;
} else {
$checked=;
}
?
input type=checkbox name=R_a value=y ?php echo $checked ?
If the user takes out the checkmark the value will become and the
field will not submitted which results in a missing field.
$allowed = array();
$allowed[]='form';
$allowed[]='R_a';
$allowed[]='R_b';
$sent = $array_keys($_POST);
if($allowed == $sent) {
... do some checking ...
} else {
echo Expected input fields do not match!;
}
break;
How can I force a n for not checked in the input field? or how can I
solve that?

I can do that now via web and think that I can convert this procedure to a list of curl requests and finally put the result into a database on my server. Fortunately this bank account does not allow transactions, just viewing the account. Is there a guide available how to start this project? I would suggest the curl documentation. In order to duplicate what a browser does you basically just need to make sure you persist cookies between requests. Depending on what the site you're accessing does it may not be particularly trivial to do this. You may end up needing to parse each page that's returned to get the right URL to use for the next request, but it shouldn't get any more complicated than that. I found in the meantime some code to play with. I also found a tutorial I followed, but it was only to pull some web sites. The challenge is to select so many things on the following pages. As I mentioned above I would strongly recommend that you do not store your authentication credentials anywhere. If you need this to be an automated system don't bother - it's not worth the risk. That is the point I do not understand. Where is the risk? The bank information is stored on the customers web site anyway, in order that their user can pay. The only thing what is not there is the login information. I believe if we can use the out of the path credentials like we access the sql server it should be same secure. The bank does not allow transactions, it is only for viewing the last 100 days transactions. Oh, and don't underestimate the damage that can be caused by someone gaining access to this account. Just because you can't carry out transactions through the site doesn't mean the information it gives you access to can't be used for evil purposes. One last thing... you may find yourself getting blocked from the banks site if you make too many failed requests. You may want to pick another site while you learn how curl works. Well, I will not try more than 3 times in a row with curl and than with the browser.

[PHP] Sessionvariable
I use at the first page a session variable to set a flag. After a few pages, or if somebody wait too long, the pages have another flag. I noticed that there are often more than one session file exist. How can I avoid that?

[PHP] Chinese input character count
I thought I did it correct to define in the header: meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 to display chinese characters correct. It works. However, if you type in a form directly, than each character will be translated to UTF-8 with a sequence of #; I could then count the numbers of # and had the amount of Chinese characters. Now I found that there are other Chinese characters in my database, which I cannot read, but on the web they are displayed correct Chinesse. How can I count these Chinese characters? bye Ronald -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Ronald
Well, if you have all the settings in a DB already, then what I would
do is this.
SELECT param_name, param_value FROM yourTable;
then
while ( list($name, $value) = mysql_fetch_row($results_handler) ) {
define($name, $value);
}
put this in place of your existing defines and you should be good.
Thanks! Works fine!
I need now a modification for that.
Two values:
SELECT param_name, param_value1, param_value2 FROM yourTable;
IF param_value1 is empty, than it should use param_value2
How can I add this?
Thank you again.

man lynx

I don't use lynx and I don't know what you mean by info to the page.
I tried
lynx -dump http://www.google.com
to try to see what you mean.
Maybe something to do with the last line (but I get several lines)
Return Values
Returns the last line of the command output on success, and FALSE on failure.
I have within a web page:
?php
$a=system('/usr/bin/lynx -dump http://api.hostip.info/country.php?ip='.$aa);
?
H1 .
later I pickup the variable $a again ...
The problem for me is that the line $a=system('/usr/bin/lynx -dump
http://api.hostip.info/country.php?ip='.$aa); prints (before H1) the
result ($a). I need the variable within the program, but do not want to
display it. It seems that 'system' includes an 'echo'

[PHP] Thoughts on multiple servers
At current stage I have two servers installed, whereby the first one does all, but the second is a database server. I need to install on different location a server pair, which should work together, fail-fall-over, ... The idea is to have in the dns for the servers: abc.example.com == general term tw.abc.example.com== redirected to, if the user is closer to Taiwan de.abc.example.com== redirected to, if the user is closer to Germany abc will be in my office (10Mbps), tw.abc de.abc are server co-location with each 150 Mbps. The database server is connected to the web server via second Ethernet port and a private IP (192.168.x.x) via cross over cable. The other ethernet port of the web server is connected to the Internet (either through another ADSL, like at my office) or to like the web server directly to the Internet HUB. The mySQL servers should be set-up as a cluster server and should work together within a VPN. Questions: 1. Any hints on above configuration? 2. Has anybody experience with a cluster mysql? 3. How to get the web servers working with the closest connection (according to the users IP) ? 4. How do I get info about the users IP (within the web server) to provide startup settings, like Time zone so time of the user, language, country, ... ? 5. How to make it fail-fall-over if one of the server (web and/or database server!) is not working?
