I got it figured out finally!
It is so stupid with what the issue was...
My image was being created exactly as it should have been - and the
code was fine. Now where my issue was: I had a line of code in there
that was to prevent people from calling the script directly (had to be
referred from a particular page). Well IE did not like that for
printing. Even though the script acted exactly as it should have by
design. I saved the image to my desktop to test it, and when opening in
an image app - it would not even open (even though displaying fine in a
browser). So I changed the file ext of the downloaded file to that of a
text file and opened it... and what do you know - there was the error
my php script generates when the page is not called properly.
So I removed that line of code (completely irrelevant to the image
itself) And win/IE could print like all the other browsers could.
doh!

One thing I feel is important to point out before I keep banging my
head off of the wall here...
In the URL parameter that is sent to the file, the url parameter is
just carrying text that is printed into the image. It is not actually
the image name, or anything. The image is generated in the cstl file
(which actually is the image - sends JPEG headers,etc) - with the text
on it (grabbed from the URL parameter).

Yup.
$_PATH['x'] for the items that look like this: .../x=42/
And $PATH (without the underscore) is a string concatenation of all
elements (after the PHP script) that look like this /whatever/
So you might use something like a PHP script named 'scale' and then:
http://example.com/scale/width=100/height=100/images/subdir/
bigpic.jpg
and then you know that you want to scale the image in your
images/subdir
naemd bigpic.jpg down to 100x100 at maximum.
You'll have:
$_PATH['width'] -> 100
$_PATH['height'] -> 100
$PATH = '/images/subdir/bigpic.jpg'

Just to confirm - the $path include file is included in the file

Yes.
Something like:
<?php require 'pathinfo.inc'; ?>
You can use this same technique for not just JPEG, but also PDF,
SWF
(Ming) and FDF files, all of which Microsoft will screw up if you
don't
"fool" them with a URL that "looks" like static content.

Hi there - I had my first crack at creating a dynamic image. The
thing
is - the image is displayed fine in the browser, but when you go
to
print it, the image is either missing, or part of it is missing.
Is
there something special needed to print a dynamic image?
What you did, *should* work just fine.
But we're talking *MICROSOFT* here!
These people do *NOT* follow standards. Period.
Here is a code snippet used to create the image....
header("Content-type: image/jpg");
$image = imagecreatefromjpeg("template_cpn.jpg");
$red = imagecolorallocate( $image, 255,0,0 );
imagestring($image, 2, 306, 200, $couponcode, $red);
imagestring($image, 2, 306, 235, $exp, $red);
imagestring($image, 2, 175, 338, $myname, $red);
imagestring($image, 2, 175, 360, $myemail, $red);
imagejpeg($image);
imagedestroy($image);
Now the way I have it set up, is that there is a PHP file that
generates the image (the above code). Then I have a parent PHP
page
that calls that page like so:
$theurl = "cstl.php?dk=soemthinghere
echo "<img src=\"$theurl\">";
See any issues in my code or setup?
Any ideas?
Here's what you do: You make it *IMPOSSIBLE* for Microsoft to
screw
up.
This means you make your URL look JUST LIKE any other JPEG URL.
$theurl = "cstl/dk=somethinghere/whatever.jpg";
Step 1:
Add/Create an .htaccess file with this:
<Files cstl>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Files>
This forces Apache to treat the file named 'cstl' as a PHP
script.
Step 2:
Rename cstl.php to just 'cstl' (see Step 1)
Step 3:
Instead of using $_GET['dk'] do this:
$pathinfo = $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];
$pathinfo = explode('/', $pathinfo);
//Key-Value pairs:
$_PATH = array();
//Path information buried in URL for source image
sub-directories:
$PATH = array();
while (list(, $keyval) = each($pathinfo)){
$parts = explode('=', $keyval);
switch(count($parts)){
case 0: break; //do nothing with bogus extra '/' in URL
case 1: $PATH[] = $keyval;
default:
$key = $parts[0];
unset($parts[0]);
$_PATH[$key] = implode('=', $parts);
break;
}
}
Now you can use $_PATH['dk'] instead of $_GET['dk'] to get your
dk
value
from the URL. You'll only change $_GET to $_PATH in cstl
(formerly
cstl.php) and you're all set.
Now, there is *NO* *WAY* Microsoft can manage to screw up your
URL
and
decide that it must not be a JPEG because it has GET data, or
ends
in
.php
or whatever.
This same technique must be applied to PDF, FDF, SWF/Ming files
if
you
want to avoid a zillion MS IE bugs related to multi-media.
So you might as well put the code for $_PATH/$PATH in an include
file.
I
guarantee you'll need it again and again as you use more and more
multi-media in your web-site.

There is a PHPNuke (web portal application) module that will allow you

NukeAmazon http://www.PrecioGasolina.com/
I'm still looking for an eBay feed, I think the barrier there is that I
heard eBay charges some big bucks to be able to access the interface.
Amazon on the other hand recognized the power of having a proliferation
of front-ends promoting and selling their products and provides access
pretty much for free (there are features you can pay extra for if you
are inclined).
Don't know if eBay will ever come along. Apple, even today, doesn't
recognize that IBM gained it's dominance by giving away its bios listing
and hardware specs (and some of its business) in the very beginning,
while apple looked at that type of move as giving away income it was
intitled to receive and jealously guarded it's monopoly, even sueing
vendors in some cases. eBay probably feels they already have a monopoly
on auction sites and don't need to give their stuff away.

Hi!
I use a page to authorize a user and based on certain criterias (user
group etc) include a file in another directory (named private)...
Everything is working fine but the problem is anyone goign directly to
private/includefile.php can run the script without authorising themselves...
Is it possible to set folder permission such that files inside it cant
be open directly but could be included?

Can you just give read permissions -only- to the user that PHP runs as and
not these other users?

Configure apache to not allow access to the private directory... That will
stop web browsers from getting there, but still allow your php script to
include() a file within it.
Something like the below if you're using apache. Other servers have
similar functionality...
<Location /url/to/private/directory>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all

All,
I have a form which submits technical requests. It worked fine on an
old linux box using Mysql 3 series but recently we switched to windows
2003 server SP1 using Mysql 4.1.10. It was doing this before the
service pack. I get the form values and then insert them into a table.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it dies. I don't know where to look
to fix this. Here is my code:
<?php
$Email = $_POST['Email'];
$Phonenumber = $_POST['Phonenumber'];
$RoomNo = $_POST['RoomNo'];
$Situation = $_POST['Situation'];
$type = $_POST['type'];
if (!( (empty($Phonenumber)== TRUE) || (empty($Email)== TRUE) ||
(is_email($Email) == false) ) )
{
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$DateRec = date("Y") ."-".date("m")."-".date("d");
$TimeRec = date("H").":".date("i").":".date("s");
// initialize database connection
include ('../../db.inc');
$connection = mysql_connect($Host,$User,$Password) or
die("Invalid server or user");
// select database
mysql_select_db("techsupport", $connection);
//formulate and run query
$query = "insert into
techsupport(Completed,Phonenumber,RoomNo,Email,Situation,DateRec,TimeRec,ip)
values('N','$Phonenumber','$RoomNo','$Email','$Situation','$DateRec','$TimeRec','$ip')";
$result = mysql_query($query,$connection) or die("Couldn't
Insert into table techsupport");
$WONumber = mysql_insert_id();
etc...
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks - Frank

Hi
Whilst you are searching the net, you might also want to search for 'sql
injection'. This is no joke!
Please use the mysql_escape_string on each variable you get from the user
side.
In your example
$Email = mysql_escape_string($_POST['Email']);
$Phonenumber = mysql_escape_string($_POST['Phonenumber']);
etc
There are some issues when magic quotes are turned on but you can implement a
hack that corrects any consuequences of that (stripslashes)

Take a look at the following functions:

and modify your die() statements (all of them) to include the output of

I'm loading them into a flash video player and
everything works fine except it takes longer it seems
and it doesn't allow streaming the actual video.
If I load the same videos with a direct link to the
http:// file system (/videos/file.flv) it loads in
super-fast and allows streaming.
I'm guessing mysql and/or php doesn't actually release
the BLOB until it's loaded it completely.
So, is there a way to actually have PHP read the BLOB
and stream it as it's loading? Is there an fstream()
option like the fread()?

Hi
I like to think of PHP as a stream programming language. You can use it to
generate a stream of html documents, images, sound files, text files, etc etc
etc.
So why shouldn't you use it to make your own dialogs in it as well?
Make an include file that contains the classes, then just declare your class
and use it.
Like
$mydialog=new clsDialog;
$mydialog->type=DIALOGTYPE_INPUTBOX;
$mydialog->title="Provide some information";
$mydialog->regexp="$xxx^";
$result=$mydialog->showDialog();
unset($mydialog);
Off course the limitations are second to none!
I have released some PHP CLI scripts under the terms of GPL2 and they all use
the same basic simple engine for argument processing. It may not suit your
needs, but you're welcome to study it to get you started.
With kind regards
Andy

Hello, PHP gurus,
As a PHP newbie, I am trying to create a PHP page that generates
and force dowload a file depending on user's input. Attached is the
code.
I give 's' to 'submit' and double checked that the value is
correctly retried and the control flow is right.
It works well if I use direct download of firefox or open the
download file with an editor. It also works well with IE. But if I
tried to download the file thru flashGot extension of firefox, which is
connected to net-transport (an multi-thread download accelerator), the
name field has 'tmp' instead of the real file name. And the downloaded
tmp has only the stderr saying that '/var/tmp' can not be removed as
it is a directory. But this flashGot works if I replace the variables
with its real value.
I tried to output the value of $filenm and it is correct. It
must be sth that has to do with how this sort of download accelerator
deals with HTML headers. Has anyone seen this problem before? can I
have some hint?
Thanks a lot

Hey,
On our profiles page we are allowing the person to pick their own font color
and background image,
the font color is picked by a DHTML popup and displays "swatches" of color,
when the user picks the color she wants
its html RRGGBB value is automatically inserted...
Heres the problem....the profile is displayed like this (I'll use html code
so it will be easier to understand)
<b>Name:</b>
<i>Harry Houdini</i>
if they pick a light color for the <i>part</i> I want the <b> part</b> to be
the opposite...
eg: if they pick white I need the heading to be black and vice versa...any
way to do this?
Thanks,

Well it depends what you mean by "opposite", but as a starting approach
I would try simply complementing the bits in the RGB value:
$opposite_color = $original_color ^ 0xFFFFFF;
This will yield, for example, all of the following, and their
inverses:
#000000 => #FFFFFF (black => white)
#FF0000 => #00FFFF (red => cyan)
#00FF00 => #FF00FF (green => magenta)
#0000FF => #FFFF00 (blue => yellow)

I want to write an application that's almost like a webmail, but not
quite. It must receive emails from several mailing lists, store them in

proper, nor a webmail can be used instead (and that's why i'm writing
it).
But i do not want to reinvent the wheel. Are there any PHP libraries or
something to process email? E.g., for things like "here's the message,
separate the headers from the body and do something different with each
other item" or "find a discussion thread in these emails if i give you
the headers of each message". Things like that.
BTW, i will use PHP-4.3

You may want to start to use POP3 to fetch any messages that you want to
be processed. Here you may find one POP3 class for that purpose:

We have two kinds of arrays in PHP:
$array["name"] = "George"
$array[0] = "George"
How can I determine (with a function returning true/false for example) which
type of array I am working with?
