[PHP] The Cat Signal
Hey guys, I just became aware of this: http://internetdefenseleague.org/ It's a site setup by Mozilla, Reddit, and others to defend internet freedom in the wake of recent legislative events in the U.S. and elsewhere (full members list here: http://www.internetdefenseleague.org/members). They've setup what they're calling the cat signal, an invisible bit of embeddable code you can put in your website that will activate (and display the afore-mentioned signal/link/etc) if/when the next SOPA/PIPA/etc comes along that threatens the open internet. I'd like to propose that we integrate this into the PHP website. This issue directly affects our community and we already staked a claim in this fight when we participated in the last great blackout. In addition, I'd also l ike to propose that we officially join this group as a member. I'm not sure if we'd do this by vote or something similar to the RFC process etc, but if you'll grant me permission, I'd be happy to do the legwork on this myself (make the HTML edits, contact the organization on PHP's behalf, etc). Thoughts? --Kris

[PHP] Detect timeout of stream_socket_client using STREAM_CLIENT_ASYNC_CONNECT ?
(apologies if this sends twice - email verification issues)
Is it possible to detect the timeout of a stream created with
stream_socket_client() using the flag 'STREAM_CLIENT_ASYNC_CONNECT' ?
As soon as this flag is used, it seems there is no way to detect a
timeout situation.
tcp://192.168.100.100:123 is a fictional, non-existent endpoint.
Code:
===
?php
ini_set('default_socket_timeout', 1);
$flags = STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_ASYNC_CONNECT;
$conn = stream_socket_client('tcp://192.168.100.100:123', $errNo,
$errStr, 1, $flags);
stream_set_timeout($conn, 1);
$read = array($conn);
$write = array($conn);
$e = null;
stream_select($read, $write, $e, 5, 0);
var_dump($read);
var_dump($write);
var_dump($errNo);
var_dump($errStr);
var_dump(stream_get_meta_data($conn));
Output:
===
array(0) {
}
array(0) {
}
int(0)
string(0)
array(7) {
[stream_type]=
string(14) tcp_socket/ssl
[mode]=

Re: [PHP] Re: Independent Contractor Suggestions
Alrighty, thanks for waiting. I've posted the files here: http://freelancetools.sourceforge.net/ Currently, there are two documents there: A general contract and a statement of work (SOW) contract. Typically, the general contract would be signed first, essentially laying out the overall terms of the business relationship. Then, the SOW is signed, which outlines the specifics of the project (work to be done, budget, payment schedule, etc). You'll want to read each document carefully. At the top, you'll want to replace the generic information with yours and your client's. After the first paragraph of each document, both parties are referred to as Client and Provider, so you won't have to change names in a whole bunch of places. The SOW provided contains budget/work for a hypothetical sample project; you will want to replace this with the details of the actual project you're working on. I may add more stuff later, like SEO scripts and whatnot I've created over the years, but for now this should at least help you with your current situation. Everything uploaded to the project URL above is in the public domain, which means you are free to do with it as you please. And, as always, use it at your own risk.

You don't need an extension to help you generate an XML feed. You
dimply output XML data instead of HTML and send an appropriate content
type header, eg:
header('Content-Type: text/xml');
You actually mean application/xml not text/xml
And its alot better to use DOMDocument in PHP5 for XML Creation rather
than hardcode everything.
Thanks

[PHP] PHP5 DOM Problem
Hi there. I don't kno id this is the correct place to post but...
I am using the PHP5 DOM to make up RSS Feeds ..
A Problem I have is I want to make this up for itunes..
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
rss version=2.00 xmlns:itunes=http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd;
etc..
I use..
$p_dom = new DOMDocument('1.0','UTF-8');
$p_rss = $p_dom-createElement('rss');
$p_rss-setAttribute('version', '2.00');
$p_rss-setAttribute('xmlns:itunes','http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd');
$p_dom-appendChild($p_rss);
which is working for me.. Debian (PHP 5.2.6-2+b1)
but doesn't work on some other people with other versions of php5 ( I don't
know yet which version they have)
they only get
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
rss version=2.00
So the name space is missing..
So I looked up http://nz2.php.net/manual/en/domelement.setattribute.php
and it says the correct way is to use createElementNS.. but I have tried and
tried and I cannot get it to make up what I want it to do.
can someone help?
I also want to make something like
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
rss version=0.91 xmlns:media=http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/;
xmlns:dcterms=http://purl.org/dc/terms/;
xmlns:gm=http://www.google.com/schemas/gm/1.1;
xmlns:av=http://www.searchvideo.com/schemas/av/1.0;
xmlns:dc=http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/;
for mediarss feeds + other types . but I can't seem to be able to use
CreateElementNS to make this up either
Can someone help??

[PHP] Migration from php4 to php 5 open_basedir directive.
Hello,
I have just attempted to migrate for the first time from php4 to php5.
The problem i am having is some sort of change in how the open_basedir
directive works in php 5. I don't see much discussion about this, so I
must be doing something stupid, otherwise, I would think there would be
a lot of people bumping into this.
On both servers I have safe mode on and open_basedir directive set for
the virtual host in apache. The offending php code from the top level
file calls another php file with require_once ('path/file.php') and then
file.php in turn calls another php file require_once ('path/file2'). Its
this second require_once that causes the fatal error, in otherwords, I
can call the first file with require_once, and put just about any sort
of reasonable php code in this file, and it works, i.e. its included in
the origional file. When the called file, calls another file, in php 5,
I get an error,
==
Warning: main() [function.main]: open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/usr/local/pkg/php/php-5.0.2//lib/php/config/_config.inc.php) is
not within the allowed path(s): (/www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site) in
/www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site/includes/app.php on line 3
Warning: main(config/_config.inc.php) [function.main]: failed to open
stream: Operation not permitted in

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required
'config/_config.inc.php'
(include_path='.:/usr/local/pkg/php/php-5.0.2//lib/php') in
/www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site/includes/app.php on line 3
The code and paths are unchanged, works on php4, not on php5, apache
version unchanged. (1.3.x). I have tried various php.ini files, of
course turning open_basedir off will make the error go away. The file
being called is clearly within the scope of the open_basedir
restriction, and thus it works just fine in php4.
/usr/local/pkg/php/php-5.0.2//lib/php/config/_config.inc.php is not the
correct path to the file, I guess because it doesn't find the file in
the . (dot) part of the include path, then it blows up when it tries to
find the file in (what is basically) /usr/local/lib/php.
This kind of sounds like a TRANSPATH related problem, and its certainly
a path problem (where is dot), but as I read the docs, TRANSPATH is
something that changed for apache 2.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Migration from php4 to php 5 open_basedir directive.
The files in question are 'within' the open_basedir directive.
To explain further/better
within virtualhost,
php_admin_value open_basedir /www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site
and...
/www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site/index.php contains
===
?php
require_once(includes/app.php);
which is /www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site/includes/app.php and this
file contains
===
?php
// base includes, don't change
require_once('config/_config.inc.php'); // config
===
which is /www/htdocs/midwifefinder.com/site/includes/config/_config.inc.php
but I have tried this with simple file names and a simpler structure,
the contents of add.php is
parsed, and the contents of config/_config.php is never parsed.
why not just add the necessary directories to the open_basedir setting
(I'm guessing it can take multiple dirs because the error says
'allowed path(s)')?
e.g.:
/usr/local/pkg/php/php-5.0.2//lib/php/config/_config.inc.php

However, when I'm at work, we use Zend Studio to do all development.

the problem when the user enters 0 in the form field

Is $Game_rating supposed to be an integer? If so, then make it one and
check for = to zero.
if(!isset($_Game_rating) || (int)$Game_rating = 0)
{ $errors[] = You didn't enter the Online Status for the Game.; }
Now you _know_ $Game_rating is an integer above zero and is safe to
display and/or put into a query.
Simply checking for
if($Game_rating == '')
will throw notices on some setups about an undefined variable (depending
upon error_reporting level) and will allow text through when it's
supposed to just be an integer.

how many elements are returned by the sql statement?
If you want the 7th item returned in the sql statement would need to
code $things[6]

[PHP] Re: Sessions nightmare continue...
Why are you testing if $_POST['submit'] is set are you posting something to
the page??
In the two scripts you posted the code block wont be executed because there
is no post variable
being set.
Try this:
a1.php
==
?php
session_start();
header(Cache-control: private); // IE 6 Fix.
$_SESSION[login]=inside;
session_write_close();
header(Location: a2.php);
exit();
?
pre
?php print_r($_SESSION); ?
/pre
==
AND
a2.php
==
?php
session_start();
header(Cache-control: private); // IE 6 Fix.
if(!isset($_SESSION[login])){
echo(brsession variable NOT set);
}else{
echo(brsession variable set);
}
echo(brsession ID: . session_id());
echo(brsession value: . $_SESSION[login]);
?
pre
?php print_r($_SESSION); ?

Works fine now.

Hi all,
Still no luck with sessions. I have installed an older version: 4.3.1
and have register_globals=Off
I have 2 test pages a1.php and a2.php
All I want to do is register a session variable, set a value for it and
then in a2.php check that it is still registered and view the session's
value.
a1.php:
?
session_start();
header(Cache-control: private); // IE 6 Fix.
if(isset($_POST['Submit']))
{
$_SESSION[login]=inside;
session_write_close();
header(Location: a2.php);
exit();
}
?
I can successfully register the session variable and set the value of
it on page a1.php but when I go to page a2.php the session variable is
not set and the value isnt set either.
a2.php:
?
session_start();
header(Cache-control: private); // IE 6 Fix.
if(!isset($_SESSION[login]))
echo(brsession variable NOT set);
else
echo(brsession variable set);
echo(brsession ID: . session_id());
echo(brsession value: . $_SESSION[login]);
?
I have been trying to get this to work for ages with no luck. I have
been reading the manual and have googled and cant seem to find the
problem. if anyone can help that would be great.

[PHP] Re: Checking for form submission
Hi Shaun,
Your expression is evaluating, if you like does the $_POST superglobal
exist and it does
but might be empty, this would be the same for $_GET and other superglobals.
If you did the following:
if (isset($_POST) !empty($_POST)) {
echo '(isset($_POST))';
}
This would only appear if there was in fact a $_POST variable 'set'.
If you want to test to see if a form has been submitted, I would suggest
that you
use the name from the submit button.
e.g - input type=submit value=Send Form Data name=sendform
if(isset($_POST['sendform'])){
echo Form has been submitted!;
}
So basically this checks if the form button sendform is set.
HTH,
Craig

Re: [PHP] Re: Checking for form submission
Ok, in simple form - If the submit button was clicked,
If some one hits enter this would be a problem, easy way to resolve
this would be to have a hidden form element flagged and to terst for that
instead of the
submit button, wouldnt you agree Jason?

This is not reliable, some browsers does not set the submit button if it
was
not explicitly clicked on. Even some big name free webmail providers fall
into this trap of just checking for the submit button rather than checking
the form as a whole.

I require a calender that is simple, loads fast,small and not javascript,
the closest I found is at:
http://scripts.franciscocharrua.com/calendar.php
just two problems with it,
1. It does not have the days on top (eg: s,m,t,w,t,f,s - sunday,
mondayetc)
2. (not required but would be nice if it would) allow me to link from the
days of the calender to some page/s
I guess I could modify the above calender as it pretty good + open
source...but if anybody is using a calender already which is like the
above
+ the 1 or two points I wroteyour response would be appreciated. ;-)

Constants are useful when a variable will remain exactly the same (constant) through the life of a script. e.g a script I wrote to calculate dates be it in the past or future would have constant values for how many seconds are in a day or a week. to be used in calculations. e.g: define(SECONDSINWEEK, 604800); // Number of seconds in week define(SECONDSINDAY, 86400); // Number of seconds in day $iDayOfWeek = 1; // 0 to 6 - 0 being Sunday $iNumWeeks = 12; // Number of weeks to lookback $iOffsetTimestamp = 0; // Initialize this var $iCurTime = time(); $iCurDay = date(w, $iCurTime); ^^^ The above constants will always be what they are defined as. Constant :-) Also another advantage of using constants, is that it can make your code easier to read. Usually constant names are declare in uppercase, which helps to break up your code.

you use multiplication instead (just make sure that the largest number

RE: [PHP] Re: mycrypt 3des (php vs .net)
I am not sure if it will help of if you have already tried
this but try
all of the cipher modes available for the tripledes cipher (eg. cfb,
ecb, etc.). There may be a difference in the way .net and mcrypt
produces the cipher text but if that were the case then it
wouldn't be a
true tripledes encryption for either the .net or mcrypt encryption
libraries. Are you able to view the source of the .net code which
originally produced the cipher text? If so then see what mode it is
using with the tripledes cipher. And you are right about the
documentation, it took me awhile to get it working and even longer to
figure out how it worked. Good luck,
Jas
I did check out the .net documentation and it uses cbc, but maybe I'll
try
the other modes for kicks.

[PHP] triple DES encryption
Hi all, I have to replicate the file encryption of a desktop bound application. This means using triple DES, but I can't find anything on the web or in the maunual (other than single DES).

[PHP] random alphanumeric value generator
Hi,
I am trying to generate a non-sequential random alphanumeric value.
Just to make things fun, I need to guarantee that each value is unique.
I have a working solution, but it seems retarded to me because there
is a small chance that 2 people might hit the same page at the same
time, do separate inserts, but both get the same MAX(uiIndex) value.
Is there a better way to do this?
TIA,
Craig
table defn:
create table randomKey (
uiIndex int unsigned auto_increment not null primary key,
cKeychar(20) unique
);
function getKey() {
//get random number into db. it is guaranteed
//unique from db once result = true because
//cKey is unique
$query = 'INSERT INTO randomKey (cKey) VALUES (RAND())';
while (!$result = mysql_query($query, dbConnect($errorMsg))) {
//do nothing, just loop until result = true
}
//now get the random number, and MD5 it to get it alphanumeric
$query = 'SELECT MAX(uiIndex), cKey FROM randomKey GROUP BY cKey';
$result = mysql_query($query, dbConnect($errorMsg));
$row = mysql_fetch_object($result);
return md5($row-cKey);

Let's say I take the address from a form and want to enter it into the database as it is.

[PHP] not sure why regex is doing this
Hi,
I have a text file that I have to parse and insert into a db.
these are a couple of sample lines (they are part of the
variable $query)
(4536,'golf tournament management',430,0,0),
(1434,'Premium golf balls',,,0),
I have to replace the blank entries (,,) with NULLs,
and I am using this regex:
$query = preg_replace('/,\s*,/',',NULL,', $query, -1);
after this line, only ONE of the ,, sets is replaced
by ,NULL, like this:
(4536,'golf tournament management',430,0,0),
(1434,'Premium golf balls',NULL,,0),
So, my problem is that I have to run the regex twice to
replace both sets of ,, with ,NULL, and I really don't
want to do that. Why isn't it getting them both with the
first regex, and how should I modify it to catch them
both?

RE: [PHP] Form validation: client- or server-side?
Is there a distinct advantage to doing form validation / error checking on the server side using PHP? The actual code you use to validate remains hidden from a potential malicious user, while javascript code can be seen, so if there is a hole in your error checking, it can be found easier. The big advantage to javascript is that it is fast, since a request isn't sent back to the server, processed, and then sent back. It also reduces network traffic, and reduces server load. That's how I've always done it because I know PHP better than JavaScript, but wouldn't it make sense to validate as much of your form as possible using JavaScript before the form was ever posted? I'm just talking about the basics, like empty required fields, illegal characters, string lengths, etc. even if you partially validate on the client, you still have to validate on the client side, which seems redundant to me. What are your preferred methods? I do an awful lot of content management with HTML forms, so it's not an entirely spurious question. I only use javascript for things that I can't do with php, and I can validate with php. that's my 2 cents worth, Craig -- Matt Grimm Web Developer The Health TV Channel, Inc.

The regex does continue trying to make matches, but the point
at which it
continues is just past your replacement. In other words, the trailing
comma in ,NULL, is not considered part of the string to match/replace.
This should do the trick:
preg_replace('/,\s*(?=[,\)])/', ',NULL', $input);
(?=pattern) is a positive lookahead. It evaluates true if the next
characters match the pattern, but those characters are not consumed.
So that regex is equivalent to match a pattern starting with a comma
followed by any existing spaces, ONLY IF the next character is , or )
The most robust way you could write this regex is:
preg_replace('/([,\(])\s*(?=[,\)])/', '\1NULL', $input);
I know you'll probably never have input like (),
but it would work as expected.
Many tricky regex problems can be solved by lookaheads. There
is also a
negative lookahead (?!pattern) ... also note that this is an advanced
regex feature and won't it work on many regex engines not
based on PCRE.

RE: [PHP] How can i print out the files in a directory?
This has been working for me...
just pass the function the path to the directory you
want the listing for.
function getDirFiles($dirPath){
if ($handle = opendir($dirPath)) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if ($file != . $file != ..) {
$filesArr[] = trim($file);
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
return $filesArr;
}
hth,
Craig

[PHP] nested require_once
Hi All, I just wanted to confirm that require_once works as I think it should, but the manual isn't too clear about nesting scripts (or i'm just thick =). What I think is/should be happening is that dbLib.ink is only included in index.php once, but when I run helperLib.php on its own, it has dbLib.php. In index.php, i have require_once(includes/outputLib.php); require_once(includes/dbLib.php); require_once(includes/helperLib.php); and then within helperLib.php, i have require_once(dbLib.php); I know this seems to be exactly what the whole 'once' part is about, but better safe than sorry. thank you, Craig -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Credit Card Validation
this is a good explanation of the validation you can do. http://www.beachnet.com/~hstiles/cardtype.html if you are trying to validate client-side you'll need javascript, which is why there may not be anything on phpbuilder i have no idea about the bank side, but post any info you find out back here, it is coming up soon for me =) hth, Craig -Original Message- From: Nathan Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: October 8, 2003 2:04 PM To: php-general Subject: [PHP] Credit Card Validation Hey guys (and gals), I am sure this has been asked many times before, but I couldn't seem to find a recent PHP4-based thread in the logs at phpbuilder.com; so either I'm incompetent or it doesn't exist. My question is pretty obvious, I was wondering what the process for validating a credit cards with both preprocessing by the form to determine the pattern validity and post processing by a bank to confirm the actual card validity. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Best Wishes, Nathan Taylor -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
