Make a socket connection or preferrably use CURL to do the low level
stuff for you.

Under the Options and "Under the Hood" there's an option called:
"Use DNS pre-fetching to improve page load performance"
I think that's what I was thinking of. That's probably not pre-fetching
whole pages so much as just resolving DNS ahead of time.
There still could be some pre-caching going on that you just can't control.
Not sure.

Greetings list!
Is it possible (and if so, how) to send username and password
information to a website with PHP?
I would like to submit some information to some network devices we have,
but they require login credentials to proceed. I would like to bypass
the traditional username/password prompt so I can automate the procedure.
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Jay

If you mean http auth style login information then you do the following:
http://www.somedomain.com:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/the/path/to/resource.html

Standard browser prompt. I'm usually pretty good with PHP stuff and

A couple of people have responded (to me; not the list) with that very
same response. I've heard of it, but never used it before. Care to
give me the 30 second rundown [I can read the site, sure, but it's
probably easier if you explained it :) ]? Is it like a glorified socket

The browser popup is caused by a requirement for HTTP authentication.
Curl is your best bet for this. All you need to do is set the following
option with the username and password...
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $username.':'.$password);
...for each request. If you don't have curl available then you can fall
back on opening a socket and writing the HTTP request manually. If you
need to do this lemme know - I have some code kicking around somewhere
that does it.

Can also use file() or file_get_contents() if your PHP config enables
allow_url_fopen

is it too much to ask to spend 30 seconds RTFM? http://php.net/curl
(it's an extension based on libcurl if you care to google further)
cURL = Client URL Libary ... read it really really slowly, then it may take 30
seconds.

Quite correct, assuming it's a GET request that's needed.

I have IE5 running in a vmware appliance. I check sites in it once in a
while for kicks :)
I also have IE 3 running and Netscape 4. It's amazing how ugly the new
tech looks when you go retro... though still looks good if you go retro
to wget ;)
I should track down a copy of mosaic for giggles.

Nathan,
Thanks for the suggestion, but it's still not working for me. Here's my
code:
===========
$HTML = new DOMDocument();
@$HTML->loadHTML($text);
$Elements = $HTML->getElementsByTagName("*");
for ($X = 0; $X < $Elements->length; $X++) {
$Element = $Elements->item($X);
if ($Element->tagName == "a") {
# SNIP - Do something with A tags here
} else if ($Element instanceof DOMText) {
echo $Element->nodeValue; exit;
}
}
===========
This loop never executes the instanceof part of the code. If I add:
} else if ($Element instanceof DOMNode) {
echo "foo!"; exit;
}
Then it echos "foo!" as expected. It just seems that none of the nodes in
the tree are DOMText nodes. In fact, get_class($Element) returns
"DOMElement" for every node in the tree.

Tim,
i got your code working with minimal effort by pulling in two of the methods
i posted and making some revisions. scope it out,
(this will produce the same output as my last post (the part after OUT:))
<?php
$text = '<html><body>Test<br><h2>[EMAIL PROTECTED]<a name="bar">stuff
inside the link</a>Foo</h2><p>care</p><p>yoyser</p></body></html>';
$HTML = new DOMDocument();
$HTML->loadHTML($text);
$Elements = $HTML->getElementsByTagName("*");
for ($X = 0; $X < $Elements->length; $X++) {
$Element = $Elements->item($X);
if($Element->hasChildNodes())
foreach($Element->childNodes as $curChild)
if ($curChild->nodeName == "a") {
# SNIP - Do something with A tags here
} else if ($curChild instanceof DOMText) {
convertToLinkIfNecc($Element, $curChild);
}
}
echo $HTML->saveXML() . PHP_EOL;
function convertToLinkIfNecc(DomElement $textContainer, DOMText $textNode) {
if( (strtolower($textContainer->nodeName) != 'a') &&
(filter_var($textNode->nodeValue, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL) !== false)
) {
convertMailtoToAnchor($textContainer, $textNode);
}
}
function convertMailtoToAnchor(DomElement $textContainer, DOMText $textNode)
{
$newNode = new DomElement('a', $textNode->nodeValue);
$textContainer->replaceChild($newNode, $textNode);
$newNode->setAttribute('href', "mailto:{$textNode->nodeValue}");
}
?>
so, the problem is iterating over a tree structure will only show you whats
at the first level of the tree. this is why you need to call
hasChildNodes(), and if that is true, call childNodes() and iterate across
that (and really, the code should be doing the same thing there as well,
calling hasChildNodes() and iterating over the results of childNodes()).
the code i have shown will work for the html i posted, however it wont work
on (x)html where these text nodes we're searching for are deeper in the tree
than the second level. im sure you can cook up something that will recurse
down to the leafs :)
anyway, im going to try and hook up a RecursiveDOMDocumentIterator that
implements RecursiveIterator so that it has the convenient foreach support.
also, ill probly try to hook up a Filter varient of this class so that
situations like this are trivial.
stay tuned :D
