Well I've been fixing up all my code (and other peoples which is worst) getting ready
to do an upgrade to 4.3. and turning off globals and warnings on.
I very often move parameters that were once POSTed as a GETs.
For instance... some one does a search but is not logged in, they can see the results
but don's see the "Edit" results button.
So they log in, and I send them back to the search they just did.
The first search is done by a POST and when I redirect them after the login it's done
by a GET.
So I use to simply not specify if it was a GET or POST and looked to see if the var
existed or not to see how to load that page.
Now I've been adding alot of:
if (isset($_POST['keyword'])){
$keyword = $_POST['keyword'];
}elseif (isset($_GET['keyword'])){
$keyword = $_GET['keyword'];
} else {
unset($keyword);
}
I suppose I could also do something like this (which is not much different)
if(isset($_POST['keyword']) || isset($_GET['keyword'])){
$keyword = isset($_POST['keyword'])?$_POST['keyword']:$_GET['keyword'];
}else{
unset($keyword);
}
I guess I could get rid of the unset, but I like it there just in case something
earlier filled that puppy.
So I end up with alot of these right now at the top of each page.
Especially if the URI is something like
http:www.mysite.com/index.php?this=that&id=1&lang=en&so=on&so=on&so=on&so=on&so=on&so=on
Know what I mean?
So just wondering if anyine had something really elegant to replace it.
Cheers,
Mike

this basicly mimics the way register_globals works.
I use this code to fix register_globals aswell as the magic_quotes_gpc:
$global = @array($_SESSION, $_SERVER, $_COOKIE, $_POST, $_GET, $_FILES, $_ENV);
$global_old = @array($HTTP_SESSION_VARS, $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS, $HTTP_POST_VARS, $HTTP_GET_VARS, $HTTP_FILES_VARS, $HTTP_ENV_VARS);

What expressions should I look for and not allow > in my forms? Personally, I'd disallow ALL HTML tags. Why? Best two reasons I have are: - someone might open a <b> tag, and never close it, making your whole page bold, or a link, or whatever - someone could do something evil with javascript or any other onmouseover/click type event, like <b onmouseover="javascript:window.close();"> (can't remember exact syntax) Just use striptags() (or is it strip_tags()?) on the entire contents of all your form's text elements, giving you clean text. If you wanted to bring back simple formatting (say, B,I,BR), you could implement 'BBtags', basically using [ and ] instead of < and >: Hello, [b]this bit is in bold[/b][br][i]and this in italics on a new line[/i]. Then you can specifically search and replace those tags using str_replace() or eregi_replace() or preg_replace(). Personally, I believe they don't have the right to get such amazing access to your site... everyone who you don't "know" shouldn't be trusted to provide decent content, or write decent HTML.

--- Begin Message --- Hi,
i need the php mssql functions, but php is not configured --with-mssql on my server.
What options do i have to enable this?
I mean, if i need the mssql-functions, does the client (as stated in the php manual) have to be installed, or can i use s.th. dynamical and load it at runtime?
S.o. mentioned to use a mssql.so with the php dl command, but regarding the client isn't installed on the server, would it work then?
btw: with client i mean Sybase's OpenClient or FreeTDS.

From: David Chamberlin
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Is there an easy way to set something in a select list to be selected?
Right now I'm doing a real brute-force method. e.g.,
echo "<td><select name=\"disp_address\">";
$choices = array( 'pub' => 'On Public Page',
'members' => 'Only on Members Page',
'nodisp' => 'Do not Display' );
foreach ( $choices as $key => $choice ) {
$selected = '';
if ( strcmp( $key, $member_info->display_address ) == 0 ) {
$selected = 'selected';
}
echo "<option value=\"$key\" $selected>$choice";
}
echo '</select></td>';
--------------------------
Well, that's pretty much how to do it. I'd really only query the expense of
a call to strcmp(), rather than just doing a straight comparison. And I'd
tend to do the if in-line where required, rather than assigning to an
intermediate variable. Which gives you this:
foreach ( $choices as $key => $choice ) {
echo "<option value=\"$key\""
if ($key==$member_info->display_address) {
echo 'selected';
}
echo ">$choice</option>";
}
Actually, I often wrap the "selected" test into a ?: operator, so you get
something like this:
foreach ( $choices as $key => $choice ) {
echo "<option value=\"$key\"" .
. ($key==$member_info->display_address?'selected':'')
. ">$choice</option>";
}
Also, the suggestion of turning this whole thing into a function is a good
one, if that works for you.
Cheers!

It doesn't work because of the /* Some code including ... */ part ;-)
First thing, I would check if $h and $id really are what you expect them
to be, like:
$sql = "UPDATE d SET h='$h' WHERE id='$id'";
echo $sql;
MYSQL_QUERY($sql);
If this part is okay, then the problem lies within this myterious /*
Some code */.

I have $REQUEST_URI that will take two values:
"/event/login.php"
and
"/event/register.php"
What I need to do is so simple it's brainless!!! I need to look into $REQUEST_URI and
find if it contains "register.php". I tried this and it completely failed, the
results were wrong every time:
if (strpos($REQUEST_URI, "register.php") !== 0) { // you're in login.php }
I don't know why I can't get this other than weekend stupidity, can someone help?

This also works with the ternary operator... I don't think it likes the ++ because it
doesn't know the type yet.

if you can get $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] or $HTTP_REMOTE_ADDR
and if you can trust it (not only that it's right, but also that there are no
man in the middle attacks or other scripts on the client that can pretend
to be your script) then you could just check that the request is coming
from the right IP.
alternatively, you could use hashes that change from one invocation
to the next (to avoid replay attacks). the server and the client
should both have a secret passphrase (perhaps even a whole set
of them, one for each day, and generated every month or so).
on the client (process.php) randomly generate a string, e.g., $randstr.
create a hash based on the secret passphrase and the randstr, e.g,
$hash=makeMyHash($passphrase.$randstr); /* use whatever hash
function you want: openssl, mhash, mcrypt or whatever you
use */
send the randstr and the hash along with the rest of the data. on the
server side, process.asp takes the randstr, takes the hash as above,
and compares the hash generated with the hash passed in.
if they don't match, don't reply. if they match, then the request comes
from process.php (unless you're really paranoid, in which case, add
some more hoops for process.php to jump through :).

That's just the way empty() works. Strings which evaluate to false
(either an empty string or the string '0') will cause empty() to
return true. Therefore if you have a form where '0' is a valid value,
empty() is not appropriate.
Instead of:
if (!empty($var)) { ... }
use:
if (isset($var) && $var != '') { ... }

This should work most of the time, but be aware this will produce a
warning if $var isn't set (and you haven't set your error reporting
level to ignore warnings)... If you're not sure that $var exists it's
better to check it with isset() before checking strlen()...

Michael, thanks for the response..
Only prob is I'm using the win32 precompiled version.. I got a couple linux boxes I
could throw this on I suppose, but I was kind of hoping to use this machine as a dev
box.
I ran the same code you posted and these were my results:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefromgif() in
c:\apache\htdocs\test.php on line 14
I don't get it - there are two gd dll's that come with it and I've tried both. Any
other advice would be appreciated. Thanks

There aren't any, however there is a GD section which says:
GD Support enabled
GD Version bundled (2.0 compatible)
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with freetype
JPG Support enabled
PNG Support enabled
WBMP Support enabled
Doesn't say anything about GIF =/. I looked in the php.ini file and didn't see
anything relating to gif support, and there aren't any gif extensions in the
php\extensions directory.
Thx again.

I know that mySQL errors are caught in mysql_error() and I find that
function extremely useful (kudos!). However, I have several queries in a few
scripts of mine but am wondering if anyone has written a small function that
catches errors and outputs them. What I mean is lets say I have a block of
code like so:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT field1, field2 FROM users WHERE userLogin =
'$authusername' AND userPassword = '$authpassword'");
Instead of a small loop under my query that is like so:
if (mysql_error()) {
echo "Error: ".mysql_error();
exit;
}
I'd like to be able to call a function that does this instead of adding this
if statement after all my queries...so...anyone do something similar?

How about something like this..
function runquery($query)
{
$query = mysql_query($query);
if (mysql_error())
{
echo "<div style=\"color:red\">MySQL Error: ". mysql_error() ."</div>\n";
exit(1);
}
return $query;
}

Here is a small class I use for mysql that will do what you want.
<?
class mysql_class{
var $connection =
array('db'=>'database','host'=>':/tmp/mysql.sock','user'=>'username','password'=>'password');
var $handles = array();
var $con;
function mysql_class($db='',$ini=''){
global $class_ref;
$class_ref["mysql_class"] =& $this;
if($ini != '' && file_exists($ini)){
$this->connection = parse_ini_file($ini,TRUE);
}
if(!$this->con = @mysql_connect($this->connection['host'] ,
$this->connection['user'] , $this->connection['password'])):
echo "oops failed to connect <br>";
else:
if($db != '') mysql_select_db($db,$this->con);
else mysql_select_db($this->connection['db']);
endif;
}
function get_handle($db=''){
$r = 0;
if(!empty($this->con)):
$r = count($this->handles) + 1;
if($db == '') $db = $this->connection['db'];
$this->handles[$r]['db'] = $db;
endif;
return $r;
}
function select_db($h){
mysql_select_db($this->handles[$h]['db'],$this->con);
}
function sql_query($sql,$h,$line=''){
$r = 0;
if(!empty($line)){
$line = "on line $line ";
}
if($sql != ''):
$this->select_db($h);
if(!$r = mysql_query($sql,$this->con)):
echo 'Oops error '.$line.':
'.mysql_error($this->con).'<br>';
endif;
endif;
return $r;
}
function num_rows($result){
return mysql_num_rows($result);
}
function sql_insert($sql,$h,$line=''){
$r = 0;
if($sql != ''):
$this->select_db($h);
if(!$r = mysql_query($sql,$this->con)):
echo 'Oops error at '.$line.':
'.mysql_error($this->con).'<br>';
else:
$r = mysql_insert_id($this->con);
endif;
endif;
return $r;
}
function fetch_array($res,&$row,$type=MYSQL_ASSOC){
$r = 0;
if($row = mysql_fetch_array($res,$type)) $r = 1;
return $r;
}
function fetch_result($res,$field){
return mysql_result($res,0,$field);
}
}
//usage
$mysql = new mysql_class();
$con = $mysql->get_handle('test_database');
$result = $mysql->sql_query("SELECT * FROM test_table",$con,__LINE__)):
.
.
.
$insert_id = $mysql->insert("INSERT INTO test_table (id,name) VALUES
($id,'$name')",$con,__LINE__);
.
.
If it errors it will print an error and give the line number of the call.
It can handle multiple databases in the same class just get another handle.
Hope this helps
Tom

Hello
I am trying to parse ESRI shape files, which have double values stored in
little endian format. when i read these values using something like this:
$RawFileHeader = fread($ShapeFile, 100);
$FileHeader =
unpack("NFileCode/N5Unused/NFileLength/VVersion/VShapeType/d8Box",
$RawFileHeader);
the double values seem garbled. Is there any way to force unpack() to read
the doubles as little endians and convert the value accordingly?
Thanks.
Tim
