Hi Arsen,
I think that'd be a lot of work, and I'm not sure I understand why you can't
use MySQL?
I suppose you could do it, but i think you'll find once starting it, that
its not worth the time it'll need...

Hi guys!
I'm going to use paypal with my site, and they have a cool "instant
notification" feature which sends, to a page I preassign, information
about a transaction as it happens. My script is supposed to:
a) receive this information (as a "post")
b) send it back to them with a sort of "is this really coming from
you?" message
c) get a confirmation from them, "yes, this came from us"
d) take the post and insert it into my database or whatever else I'd
like to do with it.
They have provided a perl sample script (see below).
Mostly I'm just trying to figure out how to replicate the whole
"receiving", "sending", and "receiving again" thing in PHP. This is
especially tricky since I apparently can't test my work without
actually going through a transaction on paypal (and spending money).
I sorta have to get it right the first time.
Anyone done this before?
Thanks again!
Sondra
sample perl script:
# read the post from PayPal system and add 'cmd'
read (STDIN, $query, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
$query .= '&cmd=_notify-validate';
# post back to PayPal system to validate
use LWP::UserAgent;
$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$req = new HTTP::Request 'POST','https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr';
$req->content_type('application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
$req->content($query);
$res = $ua->request($req);
# split posted variables into pairs
@pairs = split(/&/, $query);
$count = 0;
foreach $pair (@pairs) {
($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
$value =~ tr/+/ /;
$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg;
$variable{$name} = $value;
$count++;
}
# assign posted variables to local variables
$receiver_email = $variable{'receiver_email'};
$item_name = $variable{'item_name'};
$item_number = $variable{'item_number'};
$custom = $variable{'custom'};
$payment_status = $variable{'payment_status'};
$payment_date = $variable{'payment_date'};
$payment_gross = $variable{'payment_gross'};
$payment_fee = $variable{'payment_fee'};
$txn_id = $variable{'txn_id'};
$first_name = $variable{'first_name'};
$last_name = $variable{'last_name'};
$address_street = $variable{'address_street'};
$address_city = $variable{'address_city'};
$address_state = $variable{'address_state'};
$address_zip = $variable{'address_zip'};
$address_country = $variable{'address_country'};
$payer_email = $variable{'payer_email'};
if ($res->content eq 'VERIFIED') {
# check transaction for uniqueness
# process payment
}
elsif ($res->content eq 'INVALID') {
# possible fraud
}
else {
# error
}

<snip sample script>
Most of that script can be replicated with fread()
<http://php.net/fread>,fwrite() <http://php.net/fwrite>, a couple of PCRE
functions <http//php.net/pcre>, and extract() <http://php.net/extract>. In
essence, fread() is what does the "receiving" and fwrite() does the
"sending".
Alternatively, you may want to check script archives like hotscripts.com.
I'd be surprised if no one's posted a Paypal class yet.

Hi
Is there a php technique, app, code example..., where users can enter normal
formatted text with paragraphs etc and the '<br>' or '<p> ' tags (and even
'table') are entered so the text looks ok on an php page. This will then
mean the end user does not need to know a smattering of html code just to
enter some text into db.
thanks

There is the nl2br() function which will convert end of line characters
to a <BR>.
For tables, you might have to build something based on say tabs as cell
separators, EOL as row separators, but you would also need some
indication of where table starts and ends.

Actually, I am still trying to figure this out when I get time. What I
did was:
phpmail: "| lynx -dump > /pathto/your/php/script"
But the problem is nothing appears to be capture in the script. Or rather
in what format does this mail arrive. I even tried to write it to a file
but nothing is written.

The pipe feeds the incoming data to the script as standard input - $DEITY
knows what lynx would do with that, but black holes seem to be the most
likely destination. Your script needs to be an executable, standalone
which reads and parses data from stdin and which is the direct recipient
of info from the pipe.

As my colleague on the eastern seaboard has noted already, you can have a
module and a standalone on the same system.

Catscan: searching for kitty.
Some time ago I asked for help regarding techniques to provide dynamic
update of content on a PHP-page.
Someone mentioned a javascript routine which I've forgotten. Anyone here
might have a clue? What I want to do is that
User selects and option from a option box, and depending on what that
selection is the page populates other option boxes.
TIA,
Martin S
Good day!
Well... you can recive access to any tag on HTML page form java-script with
code like this:
<h1 id='Razdel'> here will be text from selected option </h1>
<br>
<select id=selector onchange='some_event()'>
.............
</select>
........
function some_event()
{
objH1 = document.all["razdel"];
objSelector = document.all["selector"];
objH1.innerText = objSelector.value;
}
.........
innerText is a content betvin <h1> </h1>
Well... don't test that code... so cach only idea... but if you need more
coments mail me I'll send working example.
Have a nice day!

Ever consider reading the online manual?
First, say header("Content-type: image/png");
Second, create image.
third use ImagePNG() function
fourth, destroy image.
fifth, go directly to the php script that generates the image, then you
will see PHP generated errors.

I just did that tonight.
Lookup the predefined variables in the manual.
$argc gives a count of the arguments
$argv is an array of the arguments
Ex:
php -q myscript.php Apple Orange
$argc == 3
$argv[0] == 'php -q myscript.php' or something like that
$argv[1] == 'Apple'
$argv[2] == 'Orange'

I've just been watching the posts regarding this issue.
I can see the following:
You SHOULD test it on *nix JUST to narrow down the problem.
You ask for help from all the *VERY NICE* people on this list, and then
WILL not do what they say will help???
If you do not like the php smtp implementation, then read RFC821 and
implement a better one.

Hi php'ers
I'm about to build a site that allows payment with credit card.
Of cause the card number, expiration date etc. should be secured
when transfered. How do I do that?
I've been looking at the OpenSSL functions in php, but they seem to
be unsatisfying.
Kind regards,
Morten Winkler
Hello:
Is there any way to find out the week of the month. Today is in the first
week of month.
That is, a function like weekofmonth() which displays 1 today & 2 next week.

No builtin function in PHP. You will need to search to see if some kind and
generous soul has published their code for this purpose or write your own.
Remember the actual first day of a week can be country specific.

Well seeing as Monday of this week was the 29th of October is this week the
first of November or the last of October? I think the United Nations set out
a specification for determining the week number of the year but not sure if
they have a spec for the week of the month.

If you do that this way it looks for php like this:
<?php
function somefunc($text,$n)
{
for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++){
echo $text;
}
}
#$string='xxx <?php somefunc("yyy",3); ?> zzz';
#eval($string);
xxx <?php somfunc("yyy",3); ?> zzz
?>
(as someone before correctly stated)
As you see, for PHP is some HTML-Code in the php-code-zone. To avoid this,
do it that way:
<?php
function somefunc($text,$n)
{
for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++){
echo $text;
}
}
$string='xxx <?php somefunc("yyy",3); ?> zzz';
eval("?>$string");
?>
Pay attention to the trailing "?>" in eval. That causes php to change to
HTML-Mode within the eval'd code.
Hope, I could help you

1. $telefono is an array (as has already been pointed out) so you need
to reference an element
2. you're never actually setting the property in the constructor, your
constructor lines should be:
$this->telefono = array("Teléfono","Phone");
etc.

Subject: setting member variables out of class
Hello,
I want to set member variables out of their class. The code class
is:
<?php
class translator {
var $nombre;
var $departamento;
var $despacho;
var $telefono;
var $correo_electronico;
var $pagina_personal;
function translator(){
$nombre = array("Nombre","Name");
$departamento = array("Departamento","Department");
$despacho = array("Despacho","Office");
$telefono = array("Teléfono","Phone");
$correo_electronico = array("Correo Electrónico","E-mail");
$pagina_personal = array("Página Personal","Personal HomePage");
}
}
?>
I access to this class from another php file and want to set this
member variable:
$c = new translator();
echo $c->telefono; /* this member isn't set but in constructor
method has been set*/
I have written too:
echo $c->$telefon;
echo "{$c->telefon}";
but is not correct.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

Bear with me, new to PHP and got a beginner's questions
How do I run an if statement and the if statement compares a String?
IN ASP (yes I Know, ASP is evil) I would have wrote
if (String(Request("Action"))=="Submit")
do this
In PHP I have tried
if ($Action == "Submit") but I get a parse error in that statement.
What am I doing wrong? Thank you. I did an echo $Action to confirm
that it's value is Submit.
I feel fairly new to this as well but I think that, whilst your logic is
right, the syntax may be a little off.
if ($action == "textstring)
{
echo "true";
}
else
{
echo "false";
}
Above should show how the syntax will rok.
Good luck

If the variable is set as you've confirmed, then that should work. If PHP
is reporting a parse error with that line number, note that the lines where
PHP stopped parsing isn't necessarily the line where the bad code resides.
Try checking back a few lines; you may have left off a semi-colon or
somesuch. Another idea: check that the variable's length is the expected 5
chars; maybe there's some trailing whitespace that's causing the comparison
to fail (trim() is handy for avoiding this gotcha). If neither of those
solve the problem, try re-posting with a larger code snippet.

Must have been a missing semi-colon it works now. Thanks.

Need to remove all "../" "/.." from user inputing string to prevent him
walking and creating files&directories where I don't whant see them/him...
The string:
$path =
eregi_replace('([..]{2,})|([./]{2})|([../]{3,})|([/.]{2})|([/..]{3})', '',
$path);
works good with any combinations ( ../../..qwert.txt => qwert.txt) untill
somth like "/../asd/../qwert.txt" will be entered ... (/../asd/../qwert.txt
=> asdqwert.txt).
So the qwestion is how upgrade regular expression to remove all this
correctly (with all entered directory names but NOT assigned their names to
file name...
Must do the operation:
/../asd/......../qwert.txt => qwert.txt
but not => /asd/qwert.txt or asdqwert.txt.ru
or
/................../asd/../qwert.txt.ru => qwert.txt.ru
but not => /asd/qwert.txt.ru or asdqwert.txt.ru

Try this:
<?
$string = "/../asd/......../qwert.txt";
$string = preg_replace("/(\.*\/\.?)+.*?(\.*\/)?/s", "", $string);
echo $string;
?>
May need some tweaking, let me know.

Whooops,
Pasted wrong line. This should do it:
$string = preg_replace("/(\.*\/)+(.*?\.*\/)?/s", "", $string);

Gah... Not.. enough... caffeine: Modification:
$string = preg_replace("/(\.*\/)+(.*?\.*\/)?(\.*)?/s", "", $string);

Here's what I use (take out the parts useful to you):
function FixSrcURI ($SrcURI)
{
// remove script name
$SrcURI = preg_replace ('#^/*{{$ Page.Source }}/*#', '', $SrcURI);
// remove potentially harmful parts
$SrcURI = preg_replace ('#/?\.\./?#', '/', $SrcURI);
$SrcURI = preg_replace ('#/\./#', '/', $SrcURI);
$SrcURI = preg_replace ('#/\.$#', '/', $SrcURI);
$SrcURI = preg_replace ('#/{2,}#', '/', $SrcURI);
$SrcURI = preg_replace ('#^/#', '', $SrcURI);
if (preg_match ('#(\A|/)\.#', $SrcURI) ||
preg_match ('#CVS#', $SrcURI))
{
pbHTTP_404 ();
}
if ($SrcURI == '') {
return array ($SrcURI, -1, 'src');
}
else {
$matches = array ();
if (preg_match ('#^[^/]+$#', $SrcURI))
{
return array ($SrcURI, '', $SrcURI);
}
elseif (preg_match ('#^(.*)/([^/]*)$#', $SrcURI, $matches))
{
return array ($SrcURI, $matches [1], $matches [2]);
}
else
{
pbHTTP_404 ();
return false;
}
}

I have a little problem that I just can't get to work.
I want to send a URL line from VB6 in an application that I have written to
populate a
three field form on one of my www sites
(http://arthurbard.com/testarea/AutoPost.php) AND post it i.e. populate the
three fields and then simulate clicking on the submit button. I can send a
URL line from VB6 or directly from a browser line and fully populate the
form but do you think I can get it to post without clicking the button....
can I heck!!!!
I can call the form and populate the fields with the following line as the
URL...

FWIW, you can save yourself all that PITA backslashing by using heredoc
syntax<http://www.php.net/manual/language.types.string.php>.

I'm not a VB person, but it's my understanding that VBscript can be invoked
with an HTML <script> tag the same way JavaScript can. Just assign
language="VBscript" instead of language="JavaScript". Does that help you
at all?

Like the "heredoc" thanx for that...
The way that I am using VB will not support the VBscript option
unfortunately but a good suggestion.
hi all,
i was developing in redhat 7.2. with php/4.0.4pl1. iwas able to use
ftp_connect().
but, in a freebsd with php/4.0.6, it returns error that "call to undefined
function"...
anyone can help?
thanks.

Ok why does this not work?
session_name(adminid);
session_start();
unset($sess);
session_unset();
session_destroy();
session_write_close();
$sess = 0;
etc etc etc etc etc etc..
After all that is executed I take a look at the session file and what do I
see? All the session variables still there... and the file still there
also! How can I get rid of them? Please how can I do it? I am sitting in
a corner letting tear after tear drop down into my sodden lap, people are
looking at me crazy... but Im not crazy... am I?

Hello,
I would like suggestions about the best PHP solution, and possibly
some code examples, to set up a web site which:
allows to its managers to add articles through the web
supports threaded discussions on such articles
includes User forum on any topic
has internal (always PHP of course) search engine on all its
content
Runs with no or minimum modification on both Linux/Apache and
W2K/IIS, as it would be tested on the first and hosted (not my
decision) on the second
I know about PHPNuke and Midgard, but would like to know your opinion
about which is the most turn-key solution w.rt. the specific points
above. Of course, other packages are welcome too
Again, code examples, or pointers to them are veryy welcome.
TIA,
web_fm

Yes you can...
If....if I rightly understand you only.... well... you whant submit
information without clicking submit button? .. well then you have to imagine
any suported event or use meta tag...... One problrm I don't use VB
script....
Way one... ( this is example of 100% stupid code ... only to show the
gate;-) ... will be usefull only if you find the way to abort/allow submit
in you <script> )
<form id=wwww action=test.php onsubmit='chek()'> // <<< any supported
event
<input type=text>
<input type=submit>
</form>
<script>
function chek()
{
document.forms('wwww').submit();
}
</script>
-------------------------------
Way two... use meta tag.... (somth like game... or grenade ;-) .... I'm not
worry you are not qwik enoth to fill all fields :-) )
<?
$timer = 10; // seconds
$url_str =
"http://arthurbard.com/testarea/AutoPost.php/?sender_name=Arthur&sender_emai
l=me@work&message=Hello."; // well.. what you wrote
?>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="<? print $timer?>; URL=<? print $url_str
?>">
Ummm... Like that where's me PHP editor..... will let you know how it goes
after I have had breakfast.
Thanks
Hello! :)
First off, please respond to me directly as I am not subscribed to the
list. Thanks! :)
Now then, I have a quick question I'm hoping someone can help me with.
I have this class method:
function query($sql, $type = 'obj')
{
if(!$result = @mysql_query($this->masl($sql))){
echo "Problem with query: <b><tt>$sql</tt></b>. " . mysql_error();
exit;
}
$objary = array();
if(@mysql_num_rows($result) > 0){
if($type == 'obj'){
while($object = @mysql_fetch_object($result)){ $objary[] =
$object; }
@mysql_free_result($result);
}elseif($type == 'assoc'){
while($object = @mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ $objary[] = $object; }
@mysql_free_result($result);
}else{
echo "Problem with type of query requested.";
exit;
}
return $objary;
}else{
return null;
}
}
And this something like this query:
$res = $this->query("select *, date_format(thedate, 'M d, Y') as dt,
date_format(thedate, 'l:i p') as tm from thetable where foo = '$bar'");
Every other query I've executed in this fashion, I've been successful in
retrieving the results. But, when I try doing something with the
date_format function, when I try to print out the formatted date and
time returned, I get the formats instead.
Does anyone have any idea why, and any idea what I can do to rectify
this? TIA! :)

More specifically the variabel $HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE will tell you what
languages the users browser will accept.
I have this code in my program but I fail to find the error, does anyone see it after

Hey list, i'm new to php so bare with me...
got some questions on mysql commands. I'd like to know how the
mysql_insert_id() function works exactly.
First of all how reliable is it? What happens this happens:
Table: (ID int unsigned primary key auto_increment, Stuff text, MoreStuff
text)
(my script)
insert into table values(NULL, "bla", "bla")
(some other application)
insert into table values(NULL, "bleh", "bleh")
(my script)
$id = mysql_insert_id
it's not likely that this will happen, but if the site is very/extremely
crowded it could be that there's an insert right after mine but before me
callind mysql_insert_id. As you might guess I'd like to know which ID will be
returned, the one my script created or the one from the other application?
Also what happens if my table is like this:
Table: (Stuff text, ID int unsigned primary key auto_increment, OtherStuff
text)
Thus having the ID on column 2 instead of 1
or like this
Table: (Bla int unsigned primary key auto_increment, Stuff text, Otherstuff
text)
Thus the ID not having the name ID
Or like this
Table: (bla int unsigned primary key auto_increment, id int unsigned primary
key auto_increment, stuff text, otherstuff text)
Thus having 2 auto_increment columns where the 2nd one is called ID (lower
case).
I'm really uncertain about that and couldn't find it back in the manual....
does it only read the first column? does this column have to be named ID,
what if ID is another column? what if there is more than 1 auto_increment
column in the table? what happens if some(one)/(thing) else inserts before
calling mysql_insert_id.
One more question (pure curiosity this one) the return value from
mysql_query... is that ever gonna be higher than 1? I assume it can be if the
insert affects more than 1 line right? Also my book says that the return
value is TRUE or FALSE for every command except for an INSERT in which case
it would be 0 on failure and higher on succes. I think that's crap? I'm
guessing it will also return a number for UPDATE's and REPLACE's is that
correct? Are there others?
OK just one more thing, this is for the people from troutworks if they're
monitoring this list. I think the translation of the PHP Bible is
crap!!!!!!!!! Please complain about it at the translator. The guy/girl
managed to translate (quotes) " to (comma's) , and there are a lot of other
wrongly translated things in there, luckily the examples in there got me on
the right path again over and over showing that the translation was incorrect
but it's just confusing like hell. The number of mistakes is unbelievable
(and i'm NOT talking about spelling errors, I'm talking about messy stuff
like calling quotes comma's) and I'm 100% certain it was NOT translated by a
programmer
regards
