Subject: [PHP] NEWBIE- Is this possible? How?!
Hello All Helpers! :)
I was wondering if it is possible to mix Dynamic Content with Layers?
If not I was wondering if someone can help me with my idea:
I have designed a website for a band (see below name) and I would like to
add a feature where the band members can log in and write something, and
have it displayed on the page...i guess kinda like a guestbook, but I would
like to have the content to be overwritable..... I guess if the band members
had their own page, they could add their own content whenever they wanted
to, and it would update accordingly.
Be warned I have no background in PhP.
I would basically like to know what it is I am looking for to creating this.
I have bought Beginning PhP 4 by Wrox, and I am slowly getting into it. I
just need some direction please.
Thanks,
Kevin

Translation:
You want a password-protected form, which the band members can access, which
overwrites (updates) a central (or individual) chunk of text.
This text is placed inside a HTML page (dynamic, whatever, doesn't matter)
at run time, and is visible each time the page is hit, until someone else in
the band overwrites it.
This can be achieved quite easily, but may not be an ideal "first go" at
PHP.
In simple terms, you want:
- a form
- validation of that form (user, password, content validity, minor security
checks)
- overwrite a text file or MySQL database field with the new text
- include that text in your home page (or whatever).

Yup, you just hit the nail on the head with that one Justin.
I am sure this isn't the best way to learn PhP, but I am running out of
ideas for making this website work. Static content just seems boring these
days, so I would liek to "spice" up the site by having the band members
themselves contribute to the site, instead of me always doing it.
It might bring people to the site more often, and make it more interesting
for the band members.
I just have to figure out whwre to start, thats all.
Thanks,

Hello All,
I am new on this list serve and am the developer of the Terracotta project
(http://terracotta.sourceforge.net) which is an extentsive document management system
written in PHP.
Terracotta uses, stores all it's contents as files. I am attempting to introduce a
feature, where by users can download a ZIP or a TAR.GZ archive of all files on the
server, introducing an easy backup solution for them.
If any one has any ideas about dynamically creating archives using PHP please send me
links to the resources.
Regards,
Devraj

Hi Ragnar,
I had the same problem whenI wanted to display an uploaded image file.
Unfortunately, Imagemagick isn't pre-compiled with Linux-Mandrake 8.2 distro.
So I couldn't do it the usual way. However, I solved it in a very easy way.
Since the file was referenced in my db, and the actual file resided in ~/pix,
I simply issued:
****************************************************************************************
<?php
// The actual uploaded file was 320x380 in size and a jpeg (could be anything)
print <td align='left'><img src='/pix/{$_SESSION['rpix']}' width='40'
height='40'></a></td>"
?>
**
***************************************************************************************
Works for me . . . no need to alter/mogrify/resize. Perhaps I am missing
something, but after struggling with resizing, I remembered that the image
file automatically resizes itself to whatever size or shape you put it in --
especially jpg/jpeg and tiff.
Hth,
Andre

This doesn't resize the image, all it does is tell the browser to display the
image at a certain size!

You must be doing something wrong. unset($foo[0]) is correct and should work.
If you're still having problems, post your real code.

You need to use regular expressions.

that seems odd
I've got a function that returns an array something like you had in your
example. eg
function blah()
{
return array("C"=>3,"D"=>9,"M"=>1);
}
$arr = blah();
then doing echo $arr["C"] output's 3

OK, I tend not to put javascript inside php echo statements as it
confuses things - which variables belong to which language. Second, as
it stands, if I understand you correctly, it won't matter which image is
clicked on, you'll always get the same prod_id. That's a logic problem.

You don't seem to be doing anything much on this yet - except trying to
display text.
Anyway, if you're serious about solving this why not start simpler and
work up. Create yourself some html with the javascript in it to call
your new php page. This way you _know_ what is being passed to your
popup. If this doesn't work then you need to fix your javascript. If
it does work you can start putting your php back into the first one and
see where it stops working - this will likely be what you need to fix.
In future please reply to the group rather than to me personally - and
no, I'm not going to write your code for you.

Why would you want to do that? If you need mailing list software you'd
be infinitely better off using one that already exists - if you need
features that it doesn't support (eg. A web front-end for majordomo)
then perhaps you could conribute that (and write it in php even).

I'm trying to make a script that people using PHP can get information
from my site from by including it. They would do something like:
$var =

Is there anything I can do in my script to make return() work even
though they're not loading it locally?

Hi,
How would I determine if there was a high % (say > 40%) of capital letters
in a string? I'm trying to think of a way of preventing endless use of
capital letters in a message board, to stop YELLERS.

One I wrote last year sometime:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$strings = array('This is a test with only one cap.',
'This One Has Some More',
'AND THIS ONE IS SHOUTING');
function get_caps_pct($string)
{
$string = preg_replace('/[^a-z]/i', '', $string);
$non_caps = strlen(preg_replace('/[^A-Z]/', '', $string));
$caps = strlen(preg_replace('/[A-Z]/', '', $string));
return $caps ? ($non_caps / $caps) * 100 : 100;
}
foreach ($strings as $string)
{
$pct = (int) get_caps_pct($string);
echo "Percentage of characters which are CAPITALS: $pct%\n";
}
?>
Output:
Percentage of characters which are CAPITALS: 4%
Percentage of characters which are CAPITALS: 38%
Percentage of characters which are CAPITALS: 100%

What is the best way to store text with up to 1000
characters in a mySQL database?
Sorry for the slightly of topic posting but I am
not going to join another mailing list unless I have to.
I am going to create a weekly qoute generator
thingy for my site.

Hi All.
Could anyone tell me any reference for ASP and/or Java HTML
form handling script/program/module/class/etc?
I'm going to write PHP module for easier HTML form
handling and would like to know what kind of feature/options
ASP/Java have.
Thanks.

Thanks for the input, but I know the url of cource.
I'm one of a PHP developer writing C code for you
and asking some inputs to develop HTML Form handling
module for PHP written in C.
There should be many people know much more about ASP/Java
than me especially ASP.
Anyway, I don't mind if it a commercial product or not.
Anyone knows what kind of HTML form handling mechanism
(I mean thing that does, automatic JavaScript validatator
code creation, automatic user input validator such as
CGISPAWN mentioned in MSDN, automatic HTML4 form generation
from XML definition, regular expression based server side
validation, etc)
I need feature list so that I can write better module.
It's always good to know what others do before starting
my own ;)

Hi Jas:

What if the variables aren't submitted at all? Better to test for
empty() on each variable. Avoids Warnings if error reporting is high.

Put a @ in front of that require to keep an error message from revealing
the paths of your two vital scripts.
> $sql = "SELECT * from $db_table WHERE un = \"$user\" AND pw =
> password(\"$pw\")";
You're sending uncleaned information to your database. Not cool. Use
regular expressions to make sure there are no nasty characters and that
the items conform to expected parameters.
> $p_hash = "$p_word";
> $to_hash = "$image";
Why waste time assigning these things to other variables when you don't
need to? Also, the quotes are superfluous.

Exactly why are you storing all of this stuff in the session? You've
aleady validated them upfront.
Dude, let me be straight up. The reason I didn't reply thusfar is you
sent a huge mass of poorly formatted code to the list. I took one look
at it and thought, why do I need to deal with that mess.

I have a small test script which fails when enctype="multipart/form-data" is
set.
<form action="action.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Your name: <input type="text" name="name">
You age: <input type="text" name="age">
You file: <input type="file" name="myfile">
<input type="submit">
When the above is submitted to action.php, $_POST and $HTTP_POST_VARS are
both empty. If I remove the enctype="multipart/form-data" portion of the
form tag, the arrays are set correctly, and in fact, the global_variables
are created since register_globals is on.
Platform is RedHat Linux 7.3 (Valhalla) with PHP 4.1.2 and Apache 1.3.23 as
installed from RedHat's Valhalla RPMS.
I've seen several postings similar to this, but none of them carried a
solution or even a hint.
I hope I've given enough info.

PS: Resolving this would resolve issues that I have with a bunch of popular
PHP packages such as Gallery, Pagetool and phpWebSite. The authors of these
packages all have multipart/form-data on almost all their forms, whether or
not uploading a file is required.

if the file's not too long, you could use file() to read the file into
memory, then loop through the array you get back and look for the line(s)
you're after.
if you don't want to read the entire file into memory, you can loop through
the file with:
$f = fopen($file, "r") or die("can't open file");
while (!foef($f))
{
$line = fgets($f, 1024); // increase length if your lines are longer
// line checking code here
}
fclose($f);

Uh, I know you're a sharp guy, but I've got to ask anyway. If it's

go ahead and unset the array directly?

Why not have the function automatically check each variable in POST (you
know, do a while loop for each $_POST) rather than have to call the
function over and over? That way you can call the thing once and you're
done. Plus, you can then either put that second, clean up, step in here
or have it a separate function called at the end of this POST check
stuff.

I tend to use classes for reusable purposes throughout my projects.
So, I wouldn't bog it down with things you're only going to use in one
place. Perhaps put this second, clean-up, process in an extension of
the primary class?

Query your database to with an appropriate 'ORDER BY' and use 'LIMIT' to
get the number you want per page.
Display them to a page from within a 'while' loop.
Process as you require.
Include page navigation to do the next set.
What have you tried? Are you having trouble with something specific?
If you're not sure what to do then perhaps downloading something that
will do it already will work - try www.hotscripts.com or perhaps
sourceforge.net or freshmeat.net as good places to start - or even just
do a search on google - I suspect searching for 'mysql php image
browser' would get you close.

Look into mysql's LIMIT which permits you to define the number of records
returned from a query

First a disclaimer -- what I am about to tell you may sound very
complicated, but only because it's hard to explain. Really, the concept
is simple once you "get" it.
Some people have said look into the LIMIT clause in a MySQL SELECT
query. This is the right direction, but specifically you need to use
the (implicit) OFFSET argument to LIMIT.
Fundamentally, what you do is this:
You perform a SELECT as normal, which would return all results from your
database, but you use LIMIT 0, 10 which means "Limit it to 10 records
starting at the first one". [Yes, it's weird since your row's primary
key column probably starts with 1, but if you think about it it's not
really weird, MySQL doesn't care what value is in your row's primary key
column. The first record/row is 0.]
The offset is going to be passed via a GET variable, so your query will
look something like:
SELECT row_id,
row_content
FROM table
WHERE where conditions here
LIMIT $offset, 10;
This is because if the person clicks the "next 10 rows" link, which you
will provide, this link will have a querystring attached that looks
something like "?offset=10" or whatever offset it is.
So how do you implement this into a PHP script? Well, sure there's a
lot of ways to do it but essentially, you do this:
On the first page, you have two queries -- first a COUNT to see how many
records are in the table, and second the above SELECT query that does
the work you want done (getting the information).
Now, using the first query's results (which are nothing more than the
number of records in the table), you figure out how many more rows are
left AFTER the offset that you are at. If this is the first page, and
you are displaying ten results on the first page, then simply subtract
ten from the total. If this is the second page, you have now displayed
twenty records, so subtract twenty. Save this value as a variable like
$rowsLeft or something. Also, you want to save the number of rows
PREVIOUS to your current offset, which for the first page would be 0 but
for the second page would be 10, and for the third page would be 20.
Get it? This is how you will make a link that says "next 10 thumbnails"
or "previous 10 thumbnails" or whatever.
Next step is easy: you simply display the data however you wish to do
it. I'm not going to tell you how to do this because it's the same way
you'd display the data normally.
Finally, you need to make the links to go backward or forward. This is
the whole trick of the operation. You make a link to the page's self,
but you pass along the offset so that the next query knows how to build
the proper SELECT statement to return the -next- ten rows, etc. Like
this:
print("<a href=\"" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "?offset=" . $offset .
"\">Next 10 Thumbnails</a>");
Of course, the above link is really too simple. You would want to
determine the number of rows that will be returned, which will usually
be 10 but not always -- on the second to last page, if there are only 4
rows left to display, you don't want to say "Next 10 thumbnails" if
there are only 4 left. So you need to do a simple bit of processing to
get the number of rows left and print that value.
Do the same for the "previous 10 thumbnails", although if you do this
right you will always have a value of 10 in this section. (When would
you ever end up at an offset that is not a multiple of 10?)
That's all there is to it. It's complicated at first, but once you get
it, you'll always be able to do it. I strongly recommend that you
create a class called "ThumbnailResults" and store all of this logic in
the class, since it'll keep your script cleaner.
Good luck,
Erik

Not quite like that. This is the same as saying: if there's a session in
the URL ad no cookie, presume cookies are not available. Wrong
presumption. This is the reason why now it is spoofable by opening any
page with a user-provided session in the URL

+ IF THE SESSION IS FOUND EXISTENT. It should, because you created it
when generated the sid, before doing the redirect to self.
Otherwise someone is spoofing.
I've recently modified the PHPLIB behavior about session creation
policy, to behave like this. The patch is commited and published at the
project's site.

Hello,
Please read the second part of the message being forwarded and
contribute to make PHP have better recognition by voting for the
creation of the comp.lang.php newsgroup. The explantion about the
importance of this is in the message.
--
Regards,
Manuel Lemos
--- Begin Message ---
Hello,
Finally I implemented something that I have been willing to have for a
long time. I have just include in the PHP Classes site newsletter the head
lines of the latest PHP news that were released in several other sites.
So, now everybody subscribed to the site newsletter can be kept up to date
with the latest news in the PHP world without having to keep polling many
sites to know if any interesting news were released.
This addition to the site newsletter was made possible thanks to the
cooperation of the CodingTheWeb.com site that provided the news feed
aggregating news articles from several sources that are popular sites in
the PHP community.
As usual, you may see a preview of the site newsletter already with this
new news feed here:
http://www.phpclasses.org/newsletter.html
Another issue that is not really related with the PHP Classes site but is
very important for the recognition of PHP as a language well supported
within the programming community, is the fact that finally a newsgroup
named comp.lang.php is about to be voted for approval in the Usenet.
For those that do not know what this means, Usenet is probably the oldest
network of discussion groups distributed over the Internet. It has several
hierarchies of groups but only the Big 8 are well distributed among ISPs.
The comp hierarchy is one of the Big 8 hierarchies.
There are already the alt.php, alt.php.sql and the alt.comp.lang.php news
groups but the alt hierarchy is not one of the Big 8 hierarchies and so it
is not so widely available as the comp hierarchy. There are also several
regional PHP newsgroups that are even less well distributed.
The official mailing lists maintained by the PHP Group are also available
via NNTP but AFAIK no ISP redistributes those news groups.
Having a PHP newsgroup sub-hierarchy under comp.lang.php is not just a
matter of having a better distributed hierarchy of PHP news groups. It is
also a matter of status for PHP as well recognized language.
If you go to Google and see the list of languages under the comp.lang
hierarchy, you see there 55 languages and none of them is PHP, as if PHP
would be such a minor language that would not justify a hierarchy for
itself.
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&group=comp.lang
So, it is very important for PHP and all of those that work with it, that
the comp.lang.php group just submitted for voting becomes approved.
The Call For votes message was posted here:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=1023125386.82479%40isc.org
So, all you need to do to contribute to the process of approval is to send
a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text "I vote YES on
comp.lang.php" in the body of the message.
Eventually this link will help you do it without much effort:
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=I%20vote%20YES%20on%20comp.lang.php
Of course, you should only vote YES if you agree with the creation of the
news group, but as subscriber of the PHP Classes site I assume that you
most likely agree that it is a good idea.
In the name of the PHP community, thank you for your cooperation.
Regards,
Manuel Lemos

Can I tell you more than what the subject says?
proceeding:
Close the browser, clean all your cookies, and open any page with that
?PHPSESSID=spoofme appended.
And see what happens.
1) No cookies are left
2) a session 'spoofme' is created
Do you need more? Javascript url injection ad cross site scripting
become obsolete with this 'feature'.
PLS!
I mean, as the zend site doesn't quite work like this (do the same test
proceeding as described above...)
Their session to append to your cookie-enabled browser location are
Zend_Session_DB=whatever and Zend_Session_DB_SECURE=whatever2 on their
login page.
I don't know if this is related to the free downloadable version, and
the one they sell and adopt is more 'fortified'... they should clearly
state it then!

I've commited the latest PHPLIB version (php-lib-stable) that humbly
tries to prevent this unsecure behaviour, as I said in one of my prev
messages.
I can't extend it to the so-called PHPLIB4 (that uses native PHP4
session) tree, because PHP is truely holed in that.

spoofme is not the exact term.
?PHPSESSID=hijackme should be more appropriate, but I avoided it for
well known 'historical' reasons :-|

If you destroy the session (for exaple with a logoff button) this dosen
work.

Hey Scott, that at least helped me to find out what is going wrong.
When I use the code as you told me...
$fd=readdir("/home/casapu/paginas /image/caterleras/");
if (!$fd) die ("Can't read dir");
It gives me:
Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in
/home/casapu/paginas/mbt/php/dir.php on line 7
Can't read dir
So I'm assuming is not accepting the directory. I have checked the
permits, and it has all enabled, read, write and executable.
I have tried with the final slash, and without it, and so far it keeps
giving me that message... any ideas?

Instead of chdir() try putting the path directly into
readdir(); it'll make the code a tiny bit cleaner.
readdir("/home/casapu/paginas/images/carteleras");
** and check return values! **
$fd = readdir(...)
if (!$fd) die("Cannot readdir");
The code you have *should* work, but you'll never
know why it's not working if you don't check return
statuses

Is that a space in the directory path?
I think you will have to use opendir() function first.
"opendir: Returns a directory handle to be used in subsequent closedir(),
readdir(), and rewinddir() calls. "
The manual has some good examples.

Hi,
Does someone have a PHP yEnc decode routine?
Greetings, Herbert
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
Michael,
If you used to run it some time ago and it worked then but does not now
then something has changed (obvious I know). Within the "something that
has changed" is the answer, we just need to find it.
Is it the same version of Oracle and same means of getting to Oracle
from php (I mean the non-oci8 library)? Is it that connecting to Oracle
has simply stopped working or have you done a new installation.
I feel more information would help.
Regards
Chris

Hey all,
I am having some troubles setting cookies at the moment wondering if
anyone knows the solution.
Anyhow basically what is happening, is that cookies are been set fine,
however say I try to set two cookies in the one script
i.e.
setcookie("username", $HTTP_POST_VARS['username'], time()+31536000);
setcookie("password", $HTTP_POST_VARS['password'], time()+31536000);
only the cookie that was called last, i.e. 'password' will be set. I
only started noticing this problem since I installed php4.2 and
apache2.0, is that the cause? Has anyone shared a similar experience,
and if so is there a fix? Thanks for your time as always.
Regards,
Scott

Just came to think of it now, is it possible to link to php scripts, on..
lets say my server, from an online account I have, that does not support
php.
I was mostly thinking of counters included on pages now, but other things
to, like $date() and similiar.
wxw.hostedscripts.com uses cgi for the links, is it easy to do? :)

Sorry if this shows twice. I originally posted it with Mozilla and forgot
that this newsgroup server seems to ignore postings from it. This one is
posted from IE.
I've got a mail function script that occasionally terminates midway while
sending out about 600 emails.
The symptoms point to the "max_execution_time" [set for 30].
Two questions:
Are their typically any other settings that I need to check.
[e.g.,
session.cache_limiter
session.cache_expire]
What's the best approach to resolving the problem?
Should I get the web host techs to change the php.ini settings?
Or, should I modify my script with "set_time_limit()" ?
Thanks......
