Still having problems:
magic_quotes_runtime is off
BUT
magic_quotes_gpc is on
I cant change them myself so I tried
stripslashes
That doesnt work though:
$_POST[$fname] = fread($fileHandle, $_POST[$fname.'_size']);
$test=$_POST[$fname];
$test3=stripslashes($test);
$test3 and $test are the same.
Any other Ideas?
Thanks

The PHP site's page on ini_set() [1] talks a bit about how to set that
particular option in an .htaccess file:
set PHP_INI_PERDIR settings in a .htaccess file with 'php_flag'
like this:
php_flag register_globals off
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on
If you can get at your .htaccess, maybe you could do it that way (since
I don't believe you can change magic_quotes_gpc using ini_set() or
similar methods).

PHP does *not* do the addslashes on $_POST when you cram something into it in
your PHP code.
It does it during the process of auto-filling up $_POST.
So either:
A) you have magic_quotes_runtime turned on LOCALLY. Use phpinfo() to see.
B) you actually managed to put the backslashes into your text file.
PS
You really shouldn't be cramming data into $_POST, imho.
Too confusing for later development/maintenance.
$_POST should be "read only"
Copy the parts of $_POST you want into something else, and add in your file
contents as well.

Hello,
I have a quirky behavior I'm trying to resolve.
I have a REGEX that will find a function definition in a php file:
.....function InsertQuery($table,$fields,$values).....
the REGEX is:
$regex='/function [a-z]* *([$a-zA-Z]*)/';
the problem is that:
1. a slash is automattically put in front of the $. This is good but I dont
know how it gets there.
2.a slash is NOT put in front of the parenthesis. Thats bad
3. If I try to escape the parenthesis with a \ , I get \\.
Help

Mike,
Certain characters are considered "special" in RegEx. The $ means "end
of the line," so it must be escaped to avoid confusing its meaning. I
was not sure it had to be escaped within a character set [], but that
may very well be the case. Try this:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\((\s*\$?[-_a-z0-9]+\s*,?)*\s*\)/i';
The word "function" is followed by 1 or more spaces (or tabs). The
function name [-_a-z0-9] can be a combination of alpha-numeric
characters, underscore, and dash. Then, there is optional whitespace
between the name of the function and its parameters. The opening
parenthesis "(" for parameters has been escaped (as has the closing
parenthesis). Then, in a repeatable capture group, the parameters can be
grabbed: Indefinite whitespace, an optional $ (because maybe you're not
using a variable, eh?), one or more alpha-numeric, underscore, or dash
characters, followed by indefinite whitespace and an optional comma (if
there are more arguments). After any number of instances of the capture
group, the regex continues by looking for indefinite whitespace followed
by the closing parenthesis for the function text. The "i" switch at the
end simply means that this regex pattern will be treated as
case-insensitive ('APPLE' == 'apple').
If you're not worried about actually splitting up the function
parameters into capture groups, then you can just use a look-ahead to
ensure that you grab everything up till the LAST parenthesis on the
line.
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?\)(?=.*\)[^)]*)/i';
That one probably needs to be tweaked a bit in order to actually grab
the last parenthesis (instead of just checking for its existence). If
you're willing to trust the text you'll be searching through, you can
probably avoid that "last parenthesis" rule altogether, and make a lazy
regex:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?/i';
Once you get to the opening parenthesis for the function parameters,
that last regex assumes that the rest of the line will also include that
function declaration, and just grabs everything left. If you are using a
regex setup to where the dot marker can also consume newline or carriage
return characters, just throw a "$" at the end of the regex (before the
flags part "/i") in order to tell it just to grab characters until it
reaches the end of the line:
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\(.*?$/i';
These are all untested, but hopefully I've given you a nudge in the
right direction. If you are still getting strange behavior out of your
PCRE engine, then perhaps you have a different version installed than
what I'm used to--all of the above should work (perhaps with some very
minor changes) in PHP.

Hello,
i use in .htaccess
php_flag log_errors 1
php_value error_log folder/file
seems to be a new behavior that folder/file must be a absolut value. relativ
path/file raises an open_basedir error which is set up in httpd.conf
but folder/file is not outside open_basedir and is writeable.
Is this correct?

Basically, what I'm doing is reading in a PDF or TIF which will

smaller single or multipage documents.

AIUI:
The barcodes are on faxes and whatnot, with no predictable skew, position, nor
orientation.
You've tried JOCR/GOCR, and they don't do very well.
Here are your options:
1) Shell out the money for that PaperPort OMNI or whatever it is commercial OCR
product. It *is* better than JOCR/GOCR, in my experience.
[If you Google for OCR you'll find it, as it's the only/best contender, and
referenced everywhere.]
2) Roll your own with GD. With sufficient skill and time, you can utilize very
specific knowledge of your content to do even better than the generalized
commercial solution. I have done this myself for standardized medical documents
that were scanned in, getting a percentage point or two better than 1)
No matter what you do, OCR will never ever get you 100%. You WILL need a human
oversight process on the results that hand-checks everything, or be prepared to
accept a (small) failure rate.
Set your [client's] expectations properly, or be doomed to frustration
[failure].

I had always thought that faxes were a big no-no for character
recognition software? I know that we can't use it for one of our OCR
solutions because it is just too... well, crappy. The image quality is
nowhere near what it should be for a successful OCR pass.
As for client expectations: hell yes--tell them not to use a fax machine
in the digital age. Scan the document and e-mail it or something. Where
I work, we've done away with 90% of any fax machine usage in order to
have documents that can be used by our OCR solution.
My 2c,
// Todd
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
Certainly if the quality of the input can be improved by using some digital
transfer that is not a fax, go for it...
I assumed the OP already knew that, but perhaps not.
The fax is going to cost you a LOT of accuracy, probably too much to make OCR
even viable, really, but it depends on the faxes involved. If it's always the
same two fax machines, and they are both set at image quality and have good
feeders, you *might* get halfway decent quality out of them.
If you're talking random faxes from random people, then forget about OCR. Not
gonna work.

1st. Replace your $sql query with this
$sql = sprintf("SELECT * FROM admin WHERE UserName = '%s' AND Password
= '%s'", mysql_real_escape_string($UserName),
mysql_real_escape_string($Password));
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

Subject: Php question from Newsgroup
Todd,
I have attached a few jpgs to show the problems I am having (With both of my
recent posts)
Any questions you can call me.
The first one shows the value of the php file I am trying to parse.( I cant set
any of those directives,) I can't set php.ini per dir
The second shows what your REGEX looks like as its being sent to:
preg_match_all($regex, $test2, $result, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
As you can see there is a whole lot of escaping going on here.
Thanks
Mike
Heres all the code:
<?php
process_uploaded_file('letter');
function process_uploaded_file($fname) {
// Assumes set of $_POST variables in the form: name, name_fname,
name_size, name_type
$_POST[$fname.'_fname'] = $_FILES[$fname]['name'];

$_POST[$fname.'_type'] = $_FILES[$fname]['type'];
$_POST[$fname.'_fname'] = strtr($_POST[$fname.'_fname'],'
%&*;:"{}[]|\<>,/()%...@!','________________________'); //fix special chars in

$_POST[$fname.'_fname'] = strtr($_POST[$fname.'_fname'],"'","_");
$fileHandle = fopen($_FILES[$fname]['tmp_name'], "r");

Mike,
You are using preg_quote(). This will add slashes to every "special" RegEx
character in your pattern (i.e., parentheses and dollar signs, etc.). Try
performing your RegEx search without using preg_quote() and let me know if it
does any better. Also--try to keep your replies on the PHP List, as the
information in them can be used by others on their own projects.

Subject: Php question from Newsgroup
Todd,
I have attached a few jpgs to show the problems I am having (With both of my
recent posts)
Any questions you can call me.
The first one shows the value of the php file I am trying to parse.( I cant
set any of those directives,) I can't set php.ini per dir
The second shows what your REGEX looks like as its being sent to:
preg_match_all($regex, $test2, $result, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
As you can see there is a whole lot of escaping going on here.
Thanks
Mike
Heres all the code:
<?php
process_uploaded_file('letter');
function process_uploaded_file($fname) {
// Assumes set of $_POST variables in the form: name, name_fname, name_size,
name_type
$_POST[$fname.'_fname'] = $_FILES[$fname]['name'];
$_POST[$fname.'_size'] = $_FILES[$fname]['size'];
$_POST[$fname.'_type'] = $_FILES[$fname]['type'];
$_POST[$fname.'_fname'] = strtr($_POST[$fname.'_fname'],'
%&*;:"{}[]|\<>,/()%...@!','________________________'); //fix special chars in
name
$_POST[$fname.'_fname'] = strtr($_POST[$fname.'_fname'],"'","_");
$fileHandle = fopen($_FILES[$fname]['tmp_name'], "r");
$_POST[$fname] =stripslashes(fread($fileHandle, $_POST[$fname.'_size']));
$test=$_POST[$fname];
$test3=stripslashes($test);
//$regex='/function [a-z]* *([$a-zA-Z]*)/';
//$regex='/function [a-z]* *(?$[a-z]*)?/';
$regex = '/function\s+[-_a-z0-9]+\s*\((\s*$\?[-_a-z0-9]+\s*,?)*\s*\)/i';
$functions=do_reg($regex,$test);
}
function do_reg($regex,$test)
{ $test2=preg_quote($test);
preg_match_all($regex, $test2, $result, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
return $result = $result[0];
}
?>

Were getting there....
The only fuction i get is one without any parameters.
I'll play with it, but if you see an error in your regex let me know.
Thanks

Hi,
I am looking for some method, how to run php cli script on background in
windows. It should be started by windows task manager.
Do you have any idea?

I assume by "task manager" you mean "task scheduler"? The Task Manager
is more of a process listing, like "ps" or "top" in Linux.
In the Windows command-line interface (cmd.exe), type "start /?" to give
you an idea of what your options are. As far as "in the background"
goes, Vista's task scheduler can hide the programs it executes from
being viewed by the user. Pre-vista, I think you can just minimize it
(unless it's run on a different account on the same machine other than
the one logged in)...
start /min /b php myscript.php
The "/b" option MIGHT prevent pre-Vista machines from showing the user
that a task is being executed. If it doesn't, then at least "/min" will
keep the window minimized rather than slapping them in the face with it.
HTH,

Yes, it should be "task scheduler". :-) My Windows is in czech, sorry. I was
trying commands you suggested before, but black window always blinks on screen.
My soulution is to create new windows user and run my tasks under this user. In
such case tasks run is not visible...
Thanks for your tips,
Fanda

What are "Floppies"? Is it a reference to a particular male problem?

I'm new to PHP 5 and classes, but I've done a lot of ActionScript.
I'm trying to use PHPMailer inside my own class (a service for AMFPHP).
I'm having problems getting the data that'spassed into my class's send()
method to the instance of the PHPMailer.
Basically, I have this:
class EmailAMF {
public function send ($from, $to, $subject, $body) {
require('class.phpmailer.php');
$phpMail = new PHPMailer();
$phpMail->From = $from;
$phpMail->AddAddress($this->to);
$phpMail->Subject = $subject;
$phpMail->Body = $body;
return $phpMail->Send();
}
}
As far as I can tell, it sends an essentially blank email to nobody (but
returns true.
If I replace any of my function variables with strings, like this:
$phpMail->AddAddress('[email protected]');
the email actually "gets" that data.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Jim

$this -> to
it has no meaning in the scope of your class.

Apparently, neither do the other variable names. If I replace that with
a string containing my email address, it sends an email... but
everything else in the email is blank - no body, no subject, etc.
How do I reference the arguments passed to the function when setting
properties or calling methods of the instance of PHPMailer?

Never mind - I found the problem. It was a lowly typo. Ugh.

Hello,
I have a text file encoded in utf-8.
i am using fopen/fgets/echo etc..
how do i display these utf8 characters from the file on the web?
I have tried different combinations of
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1");
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8")
and
utf8_decode/utf8_encode functions
I can't seem to get the characters from the file to display as
non-giberish on the web.
if i set the charset=utf8, and type the unique characters in directly to
my document (hard coded) and save the document as utf8, then the
characters display properly on the web.
examples:
1) save file as utf-8, web produces correct characters
<?php
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
?>
<HTML><BODY>
[type special characters here using russian keyboard layout]
</BODY></HTML>
2) save file as ASCI, web produces [giberish]
<?php
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1");
?>
<HTML><BODY>
<?php
echo utf8_decode(fgets($handle));
?>
</BODY></HTML>
3) save file as utf-8, web produces [giberish]
<?php
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
?>
<HTML><BODY>
<?php
echo fgets($handle));
?>
</BODY></HTML>
Thanks for your help,
dK
