Subject: [PHP] From where was function called?
Hi,
I'm having a real problem:
In a codeset of more than 5000 lines of code, I have a rogue call to a
function.
Is there a way I can determine in a function from where the call was
made? (Filename, linenumber etc)
Thanks

You can use the 'magic constants' __FILE__ and __LINE__
For example, if you have an editor that can replace the newline "\n"
character, you can replace all "\n" with
"\nerror_log(__FILE__ . '[' . __LINE__ . ']');"

What about:
1. getting rid of anything between "<script" and </script.*>"
2. get rid of any attributes that start with " on" and end with a
quotes or space
Maybe I'm forgetting about some valid attributes that start
with "on", you might have to cater for them
Does this work?

In theory, yes. I don't think I'd trust it here -- this is potentially
malicious content added by unknown people. I'd be taking the approach keep
what you trust, throw out the rest, which is a more complex set of regexps
though.
hence <B anything> should be trimmed back to <B>.... this is easier on a
smaller subset of HTML, rather than "all HTML".
I personally would not give unknown contributors any more than you have to.

Hello all!
My company, Tap Internet, has launched the latest
version of our development platform - LogiCreate. The basic
info can be found at http://www.logicreate.com, but I'm writing
here specifically to solicit product resellers from
the PHP developer community.
The product itself has been tested in numerous deployments
over the past 2 years, including ecommerce, extranet, intranet and
CMS-oriented installations.
Although there are numerous open source projects and toolkits
you can base your development work on, we'd like to appeal to
your commercial instincts. By becoming a LogiCreate
reseller, you'll be getting much more than code and updates,
including
* Deployment experience and support. Our engineers
have deployed large scale ecommerce sites (processing
tens of millions of dollars per day) as well as handled
migration from ColdFusion and ASP-based sites.
* Sales support - if you need help developing proposals
to go up against competitors, we can help. Whether it's
the validity of PHP itself, or questions about open source
security, we'll lend our support to your sales efforts.
* Training - we offer the only professional PHP training course
in the US, and as a reseller you get preferred rates on
training courses (as well as at least one free class per year).
While there's nothing wrong with the mailing lists and
support forums on various free sites, you won't find a stronger
combination of a solid development framework and professional support
anywhere else. If you're ready to step up your development
efforts with PHP, give us a call.

In a word: Bollocks.
This obviously an untrue claim for all but one company in the world.
And I find it very hard to believe that you could be that company.
I would never purchase (or possibly even use) a product from someone
who lies and misleads in their promotional material.

Perhaps I should have clarified (and I thought it was evident)
that we were referring to the PHP market, not the
software development market in general. We still don't know
anyone else who provides guaranteed PHP development support
service or professional training courses for PHP. If you
know of others in the US, please let me know.
I apologize to you if you've felt misled - it was not the
intention at all.

I have a site where users can sign up. I have had huge problems with people
using auto-signups, so I tried to stop them with an authentication image.
Someone has since gotten around that. I highly doubt he is using OCR. Can
someone try to figure out what's wrong with my code? Here it is:
Contents of auth_image.php:
<?php
$dbh = mysql_connect ("MYSERVER", "MYUSER", "MYPASS");
mysql_select_db ("MYDB",$dbh);
$authimage = ImageCreate(40,15);
$white = ImageColorAllocate($authimage, 255, 255, 255);
$black = ImageColorAllocate($authimage, 0, 0, 0);
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
$getcode = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select * from signupcodes where id
= '$id'"));
imagestring($authimage,5,0,0,$getcode[code],$black);
imagejpeg($authimage);
imagedestroy($authimage);
?>
Some code from signup.php:
//I do seed the random number in the header
$code = mt_rand(1000,9999);
mysql_query("insert into signupcodes(code) values('$code')");
$codeid = mysql_insert_id();
<input type=hidden name=codeid value=$codeid><img
src='authimage.php?id=$codeid'><br>
<b>Code from above:</b> <input type=text name=code><br>

$getcode = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select * from signupcodes where id
= '$codeid'"));
if($code != $getcode[code]){
die("<b>Error:</b> wrong code");
}
In the middle of process_signup.php, after I've done checks of a few other
things:
echo "You're a member! :D<br><a href='/'>Back to homepage</a>";

I can't see anything wrong with it. Maybe the hacker is smarter than
you give him credit for.
>$authimage = ImageCreate(40,15);
Try randomising the size of the image. That'll stuff up any hash tables
he's built.
>imagestring($authimage,5,0,0,$getcode[code],$black);
and try varying the offset of the string in the image.
>$code = mt_rand(1000,9999);
Only 8999 possible codes? Is he brute-forcing it?
Check the server logs for thousands of verification attempts.
>if($code != $getcode[code]){
>die("<b>Error:</b> wrong code");
And consider deleting the code after 3 incorrect attempts.

Hey James, yeah you're right that was a typo, ereg was what I meant. Thanks
your suggestion worked and plus I think preg is much faster then ereg so
that's cool.

First off, you're using eregi (case insensitive), but defining a-zA-Z (a
through z, case insensitive) in your characters class. You could just use
ereg and leave the character class as it is, or drop the A-Z from the eregi
version.
Secondly, I'd amend your code to:
^[a-z]+$
And thirdly, I'd just use a combination of ereg / preg_* functions and
strlen.
if(preg_match("/^[a-z]+$/i", $string) && strlen($string) < 255)
{
echo "Whatever.";
}
I'm not sure why you're getting that error, but then again, I haven't
bothered reading up about it :)

I have a guest book , and I want to make sure that those people who sign the
guest book can't impersonate a member of the web site. the code below
checks the input string, which is the guestbook signer's name, against a
list of defined web site members. Is there any way to circumvent the code
as I've written it?
function validateGuestbookSigner($valToEval,&$errorArray){
echo "Value: $valToEval<BR>";
$valToEval=preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9]/","",$valToEval);
echo "Value after stripping all nonessential debris: $valToEval<BR>";
//obtain the list of names to test against
$names=getGuestBookNames();
//iterate through each person in the list
foreach($names as $name){
//explode to get first and last name
$namePieces=explode(",",$name);
//look for the last name,case insensitive
if(preg_match("/" . $namePieces[0] . "/i", $valToEval)){
$errorArray[]="The last name that it matched is: $namePieces[0]";
$errorArray[]="Please consult the Guestbook Rules for a list of
names of those people in the band or are affilliated with the web site
";
$errorArray[]="Part of the guestbook signer's name matches a last
name that cannot be used";
return false;
}
//look for the first name,case insensitive
//(the name might just be Webmaster, so make sure
// to check if first name exists at all)
if(count($namePieces)>1){
if(preg_match("/" . $namePieces[1] . "/i", $valToEval)){
$errorArray[]="The first name that it matched is:
$namePieces[1]";
$errorArray[]="Please consult the Guestbook rules for a list of

First, you'll need to get the length of the str with the str_len() function.
After you have that, use the substr() function like Rasmus mentioned.

Wouldn't it be better to check to see if charicater is indeed a comma before
removing it?
I was guessing eregi_replace would be the way to go.
Am I thinking wrong?

No you don't. You should go read the substr() docs as well:

Actually, if he uses a negative index in substr(), he doesn't need to
know the length of the string.

its my understanding that you wish to strip the last character of the string
not return it. Putting -1 in the length parameter will just return the last
character, it wont get rid of it....
$string = "This is the string,";
$str_length = strlen($string);
if (substr($string,0,-1) == ",") {
//Strip
$formatted_str = substr($string,0,str_length-1);
} else {
//Dont strip
//
}
That should work but I didnt test it ;)

hello all:
:)
My version of gd is 1.8.4,my php is 4.1.2,which works on apache server whose version
is 1.3.24 and my OS is linux7.2.
When I compiled gd ,I used some libraries,such as
libpng-1.2.0,zlib-1.1.4,freetype-2.1.0,I want my gd can support ttf besides png
image,is it enough?
Can php support ttf?I hava just compiled gd in php,but I found it can not use some
functions like ImageTTFtext and ImageTTFBBox,why?
Is that right that gd-1.8.4 can't support functions about ttf ,just as gd cannot
support gif?
Thank you

Hi,
You need freetype-1.* library . You can get it at www.freetype.org . Then compile
php --with-ttf=/usr/local assuming you have the library in
/usr/local/lib .
I struggled a lot getting the TTF fonts to work in my env . Now I conclude that
only specific combinations of versions of php/gd/freetype work well
with each other . I am using
freetype-1.3.1
gd-1.8.4
php-4.0.4pl1
which works well for me .
hope this helps.

Also, non-Unicode TTF fonts will /not/ work with PHP.

it's a "bookmark"
basically, it's telling the browser to scroll the page down until it finds
the named bookmark
eg
<a name="top">Top of page</a>
blah...
...
<a href="#top">go to top</a>
clicking on that link will scrol the page to "top"
in your case, it's a "no-name" bookmark, and most browsers treat this as
either "don't move" or "top"
it's useful when doing "onClicks", etc. when you don't want to user to go to
a different page

I am using the following code to create a downloader. It works, except
that IE will just dump the contents to it's browser and Netscape 4
asks if I want to save it in a file called "blah.php".
// File: blah.php
if ( ! $fp = fsockopen ("www.steptwo.com.au", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30) )
{
echo "$errstr ($errno)<br>\n";
}
else
{
$userpass = "user:password";
fputs ($fp, "GET /files/file.zip HTTP/1.0\r\n" .
"Host: www.steptwo.com.au\r\n" .
"Authorization: Basic " . base64_encode( $userpass ) .
"\r\n" .
"\r\n");
while ( $headerStr = trim( fgets( $fp , 3072 ) ) )
{
if ( strpos( $headerStr, ":" ) )
header( $headerStr );
}
fpassthru( $fp );
}
Is there any way to get it to save as a file called "file.zip"?
Is there any header I can set? The headers it currently returns
are:
Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2002 06:02:36 GMT

Yes. The field would need to be some kind of binary blob.
You would need to access it using a PHP script that
set the header eg:
header( "Content-type:image/gif" )
and then out put the image.

How: just addslashes() on the content and insert it.
What: a blob of an appropriate size.

I have an array where each element contains an array that in turn contains
2 numbers indexed by "id" and "parent".
Every id except for the first one belongs to another, its parent.
What I want to do now is sort the array so that every id is put after its
parent starting with id 1.
Example:
arr1 = (
0 => array("id" => 1, "parent" => 0),
1 => array("id" => 2, "parent" => 1),
2 => array("id" => 3, "parent" => 1),
3 => array("id" => 4, "parent" => 2),
4 => array("id" => 5, "parent" => 3),
5 => array("id" => 6, "parent" => 2),
6 => array("id" => 7, "parent" => 1),
7 => array("id" => 8, "parent" => 4),
8 => array("id" => 9, "parent" => 5)
)
In other words they are in the following order..
1=0
2=1
3=1
4=2
5=3
6=2
7=1
8=4
9=5
After the sort I want them to be in the following order..
1=0
2=1
4=2
8=4
6=2
3=1
5=3
9=5
7=1
Note that id 6 isn't placed right after id 4 since id 4 has parents of its
own which have precedence.
An easier way to illustrate this would be by indenting the list..
1=0
2=1
4=2
8=4
6=2
3=1
5=3
9=5
7=1
The index of $arr1 makes no difference so the array can be shifted or
rebuilt..
If you are wondering I need this for a forum that im building. If you have
any suggestions as how to do this better feel free to tell me all about it
:)
Thanks in advance.

No it doesn't. It just provides another excuse for lazy programming.

Hey,
I am trying to make a drop down list such that, when some one selects an
option, it refreshs and displays the option on the same page. There are a
couple of things already in the URL [ the query string ], which need to
remain there. How would I do this easily?
