what versions of Apache, PHP and what "SQL" do you have installed? Do you
mean MySQL? If so, what version?

Quite a few notes have been posted here on guys battling to get this
kind of environment going.
If you have tips on installing PHP for Apache on Win 98, could you
please read
http://www.knowsystems.com/notes/phpinstallnotes.html
and comment. The notes in the PHP Manual are ancient and need an update.
I've had some good feedback from the friendly guys on this list, but
have not been able to get the system going yet.
So I put together all the suggestions for all to see - and hopefully get
a fix so that others do not battle as I have done.
Please note that somewhere there is something missing in these
guidelines - which is where I desparately need your help. So don't
follow them yet...
Thanks
Jacques

This is what I have in my Apache httpd.conf on Win NT 4.0 SP6a:
LoadModule php4_module "C:/program files/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
php works as advertised for me
Apache=2.0.36
PHP=4.2.1

I have a text file that I need PHP to be able to read and write too, but
I don't won't people to be able to browse to it. Since it's a txt file
I can't put login programming on it. And in IIS it seems the only way
to turn off internet browsing to the file is to remove Internet Guest
BUT that is what PHP is set up on. What do I do to fix this problem?
Thanks!

Don't store this file in folder being accesible from Internet. If you place
it elsewhere nobody should be able to see it. PHP, as local process will
have acces to this directory.

There is, but I dont think you want to do it...
if you recompile PHP with "--enable-trans-sid" turned off, then PHP will
not slap on that id at the end of the URL. However, if you do this, you
will completely lose the ability to track sessions when people dont have
cookies turned on.
You could manually rewrite EVERY page you use to pass hidden form fields
between pages, but that kind of code requires a hell of a lot of
maintenance.
personally, I'd just take a page from the book of REST and leave that
ugly session id on your URL. Both the Apple Store and Amazon do it...
and those are just the A's ;)

does any one know a way i can use the command $HTTP_REFERER $HTTP_USER_AGENT
& $REMOTE_ADDR in internet explorer6.2 as every time i try to use the
commands it returns a blank page unless i use the if and elseif statments.
This would be a great help as i need to include this in a new counter i am
building at the moment

You are aware that the default for automatic variable creation changed
in 4.2? You now need to reference variables by either:
1) extract($HTTP_POST_VARS); //or GET, etc., at the beginning of the script,
then by $myvarname
2) echo $HTTP_POST_VARS['myvarname']; // for each var reference
3) set register_globals=on in your php.ini (this is documented in the first
part of the new default file), then by $myvarname

It is rather clear. As HTML may have syntax errors and be correctly
displayed, an XML document can't. Any XML compilant processor will refuse to
process XML with errors.
An XML MUST have TOP LEVEL ELEMENT. HTML should have it also (<HTML> &
</HTML> pair). This means that you can NOT simply append some content do XML
file, becouse it would add some text AFTER ending tag of top element. I
haven't read your code, becouse I think your problem is with understanding
XML where everything MUST by correct.
To get correct results try to remove last line of XML document (with top
element's closing tag), append file and, finally, place closing tag. Or
store your data in database (such as textfile) and generate your XML
dynamically with PHP as others do.

I'm new to PHP also, but I easily create HTMLs dynamically. Everything is
described in PHP documentation.
To maintenance text files could be helpfull functions like explode() &
implode(), but I prefer MySQL.
XML is also mentioned id PHP docs.
PHP programming is fun if you are familiar with programming from elsewhere.

Your script IS working correctly but maybe not as you want. PHP is not
designed to run 'constatnly running" scripts. If you try, you will geat an
timeout (after 30 seconds).
If you want to repeat pinging any server after x seconds, use REFRESH. In
that way, your script will generate HTML page (with text "ping problems,
waiting...") and refresh it running script again (and again and.... until
you close browser window or go to another page). Try this:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="x;URL=http://want.to.ping.it.again";>
</head>
...
</html>
where "x" in third line is amount of seconds to wait

I'm just experimenting with LDAP...
[ Windows 2000 Server/IIS/php 4.2.1]
I've uncommented the php_ldap.dll in my .ini... when I execute the following simple
piece of code it gives me:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ldap_connect() in E:\wwwshell\test\index.php
on line 5
<?
function checkUser ($username,$password) {
$ldapserver = 'ip_for_ad_svr';
$ds=ldap_connect($ldapserver);
if ($ds) {
$dn="cn=$username,cn=Users, DC=[sitename], DC=[sitesuffix]";
$r=@ldap_bind($ds,$dn,$password);
if ($r) { return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
if(checkNTUser("brian","moo")) {
echo "USR Auth!";
} else {
echo "USR NOT Auth!";
}
?>
What have I not done?
