[PHP] Clearing pipe stream and a few other issues.
ok, I'm not sure how to explain this but here goes..
I have a php script being used as a cgi to get around certain permission
issues.
Its not what I wanted but is basically working. Running through the cgi-bin
has been
much more difficult however, for example,
1. I need to clear or reset the stream because on occasion, I am get
variables from a previous submission to the form.
Not sure how to do this.
2. I have having trouble using the header function. Its says that the header
is already been sent.
I can only assume at this point its because of the
#!/usr/local/bin/php -q at the top of the script required for cgi's.
I may be wrong. I may not even need the header.
3. The formatting is coming out in plain text..The html code is not
executing. Here again I believe its a header content issue.
here is the code:
?
echo
H1 align=centerThank You, $sender_name/h1
p align=centerYour secret message has been sent./p;
?
here is the result:
H1 align=centerThank You, David/h1
p align=centerYour secret message has been sent./p
I am rookie at php, so any insights, workarounds or help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Zed

foreach (explode('', $str) as $v) {

// urldecode content for readability
$arr[$split[0]] = urldecode($split[1]); // create assoc. array
${$split[0]} = urldecode($split[1]); // form the variables
}
//echo $sender_name . 'br/' . $arr['sender_name'];
print_r($arr);
$msg = Sender's Full Name: $sender_name\n;
$msg .= Sender's E-Mail: $sender_email\n;
$msg .= Secret Message? $sender_msg\n\n;

What exactly are you trying to achieve and what problems were you having
using it as a normal script?
I'm guessing it's some form of a mailing script.
What's wrong with using a regular php script with a mail command:
?php
$sender_name = htmlentities($_POST['sender_name']);
$sender_email = htmlentities($_POST['sender_email']);
$sender_msg = htmlentities($_POST['sender_msg']);
$msg = Name: $sender_name\n;
$msg .= Email: $sender_email\n;
$msg .= Message: $sender_msg\n;
mail('');
?
and then your form posts to this script (change the form action to point
to this new file)...

Re: [PHP] Clearing pipe stream and a few other issues.
Permissions on a virtual server is the reason for running this script as a
cgi. It's not what prefer to do. However, this is only way php will work
under my user name. Perl would probably be a better alternative but I don't
know perl. If I had control of the apache server this would not be a
problem.
I have the script working, I just need to clear up these issues.
