RE: [PHP] get_browser and $_SERVER info from an IFRAME[Scanned]

2004-07-14 Thread Michael Egan
As Richard Davey has pointed out - there is no reason why your approach in itself 
would cause the error message you are getting.

I did a similar thing with a site I created and was plagued with similar error 
messages but the problem wasn't due to sessions but due to the way in which I tried to 
add a different header section to the scripts. This isn't straightforward with PhpBB 
because of the way in which some of the scripts use redirects. Perhaps this is causing 
the problem.

HTH,

Michael Egan

 Subject: [PHP] get_browser and $_SERVER info from an IFRAME[Scanned]
 
 
 Hi,
 
 I have a php webstats script that puts info into a MYSQL database.  I
 include it at the top of each page that I have.  I recently 
 put a php built
 forum (PHPBB) on our website and wanted to include the php 
 script at the top
 of that.  Unfortunately as it already uses sessions, I kept on getting
 'headers already sent' error messages for obvious reasons- I was using
 sessions and so was PHPBB.  I thought a good way round this 
 would be to have
 an IFRAME on each of the forum pages where the IFRAME would be the PHP
 webstats page.  The only problem with this is that it logs 
 the information
 of the IFRAME and not the main page.  I use get_browser and 
 $_SERVER to log
 things such as the IP address, browser, os, and work out the 
 country and the
 name of the page being looked at.
 
 $browser = get_browser();
 $parenty = $browser-parent;
 $browsery = $browser-platform;
 $crawlery = $browser-crawler;
 $cookiesy = $browser-cookies;
 $pathy = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
 $ipy = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
 $hosty = gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
 
 All these will return details for the IFRAME.  How do i get 
 details of the
 main page?

I can understand why somebody would want to capture the information in this way. There 
are a lot of hosting companies which offer packages that don't necessarily include 
such stats. 

I might be wrong - I frequently am :-( - but is it also not the case that by tying 
this information into sessions you get a better profile of unique visitors to the site 
which is often difficult to obtain from some of the access logs?

 But is it really needed? surely a web log analyser is more 
 efficient . 
 If your hosting company does not provide you access to raw 
 log files you 
 are being ripped off.
