Re: [PHP] Reliability of sessions
I use them because 'sid' isn't always populated and, who knows, some browser may not handle cookies right and then lose a session. I do it to make sure, to be absolutely sure that it will work.

Well, I know that SID is a defined constant (see session functions in the
online PHP manual) but just to be sure, I created my own functions:
function sessinfo() {
return session_name() . "=" . session_id();
}
function sessfield() {
echo "\n";
}
I use 'session_name()' rather than PHPSESSID because some webmasters may
change the PHP.ini file's definition for the session name.
Then whenever I make a URL link in my site I do
my link
Of course, the sessfield function is for passing the session ID via a form.

[PHP] Reliability of sessions
I have a quick question for a veteren of sessions out there. We're building a shopping cart and I'm playing with the idea of keeping the checkout information such as Shipping and billing address in a session variable until I retrieve it at checkout. The checkout is a step process: Shipping info -> billing info -> confirmation -> final. At shipping and billing the information would be stored in a session variable. To be retrieved at confirmation, etc. (cc information would be encrypted before storing in the session var.) Otherwise I could possibly create the order starting with shipping info in the database and merely pass the order number that is assigned to them. What is the opinion, are sessions reliable enough to go through the step process? -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager - New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Searchengine friendly URLs
I found several problems with managing this. All links on the page CANNOT be relative (i.e. HREF="filename.php/var/var/var" it must be HREF="/filename.php/var/var/var" or with the full path. Otherwise your browser will try to attach the filename to the end of the long querystring you created. Unless someone on this list knows of a way around that. As for a form, say the resulting form of a searchbox. If you want the form to be a 'GET' form so people can see the querystring I created a file which made that happen. You POST to the form with a hidden variable in there containing the actual destination. The code is here: > Search engines don't normally reach anything on a query string (whatever's > after a ? ).

Re: [PHP] getting data from form...
Well the form has to submit to the other file. Normally with default PHP configurations it will automatically make the variables $Steak, $XYZ, and $CHIPs with the corresponding values IF the checkboxes are checked. If it's not checked nothing is set. So you can do this on the receiving page: If (!isset($Steak)) $Steak = 0; If (!isset($XYZ)) $XYZ = 0; If (!isset($CHIPs)) $CHIPs = 0; Remember that variable names are case sensative.

Re: [PHP] Sessions just don't work on my machine. (Trying this again)
I just tried this here below. Before trying this I changed any called to $PHPSESSID to session_id(). I turned off cookies Loaded the page... Created session id and file: sess_44074d3a54862b480c3407c9eb373f77 Contents: var1|s:8:"My var 1";var2|s:8:"My var 2"; I submitted the form: PHPsessionid shows up as: 2f633e17c6752342d0c1e7e6191b4112 New file with same name contents: var3|s:8:"My Var 3"; I removed index2.php and went back to the first file. PHP SessID shows up as 68b482365d9086068edfa3e35d8dd41d Corresponding file with contents: var1|s:8:"My var 1";var2|s:8:"My var 2"; This is different then what I previously said. But it's clear to me that each time session_start() is called, it doesn't open the existing session rather it creates a new one. When I click the 'try this link' instead when starting over. It still creates a new session ID on the server. On 9/24/2001 1:31 PM this was written: > OK, do you have access to your /tmp directory?

Re: [PHP] Sessions just don't work on my machine. (Trying this again)
Thank you everyone for your continued help with this. It's still not fixed but I have to leave to a dr. appt. I hope that most--If not all--of you are on when I get back. I just wanted to alert you as to why I wouldn't be responding to your questions/messages. Here is the last information I sent Tamas: I find as exepcted, it's creating a new PHPSESSID every time I post to the index2.php As I mentioned in the first e-mail, it ust creates a new session. But this is something I find interesting. I start the session for the first time, it regsiters var1 and var2. Then I post to the next page, the PHPSESSID values are posted perfectly fine but on the server a new session with a different vale is created with var3 in it. Then I will reload the first page again by erasing index2.php and hitting enter and it will display a new sess id number and show the first page, as normal but that sessid number is equal t the new session created on the server and the value of it is: var3; var1; var2 This is stranger than strange. -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager - New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[PHP] Sessions just don't work on my machine. (Trying this again)
I have written here several times on this subject and in the end those who have gratiously helped me have ended up just telling me they have no clue why it doesn't work. It HAS to be my server setup but I don't know what it could be. Sessions just don't work on my machine... The heart of the problem is the session_start() function. The first time you start a session with this function it creates a new session, that's fine. The problem happens when it's run and no matter if the SSID is in a cookie or passed via a form, it will still create a new session, every single time. It will not pickup the old session. Here is the app I setup to demonstrate the problem: http://fromtheduke.com/session/ The first page initiates the session, the variable is posted to the next page, the next page should retrieve the session and display the first two variables which were registered in the session, then display the third var. You'll see the third var showsup, the first two don't. The session ID may or may not remain the same. If you manually remove the index2.php file and reload the first page, the SSID will have changed. Source of the files: index.php: Session Page 1 PHPSESSID: Var1: Var2: VAR 3: -- Source of index2.php: Session Page 2 PHPSESSID: Var1: Var2: VAR3: -- I have tried session_name() to force the session ID. I was told though this function doesn't set the SSID. It gives the SSID a name or something. I have been told this is all setup correctly, yet, you can see it doesn't work. The permissions on my /tmp directory look like this: drwxrwxrwt /tmp Does this have anything to do with this? I don't know much about the permissions part of things. -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager - New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] num2string wish list
I don't know if this exists already, I'm looking for it but I'm not coming up with much of anything.

[PHP] The future of PHP
A little background... Skip to "THE JIST" if you wanna make this quick. I am on this webmaster's list where most of the people are fairly new webmasters. They're just getting the hang of things. I am probably one of the only advanced ones on there (not to toot my own horn really) and I'm one of two who use PHP (the other is just learning.) I tout PHP and MySQL as awesome, which they are, but I don't say they're the only technology out there. There is another guy, a kid, who is a major Java guy and he's BIG into XML and JSP. Some guy on this list asked what a good dynamic web solution is, I immediately chimed in and said PHP was great, free, and on most all linux hosts. Told him how powerful it was and what could be done with it. This kid chimes in and says, something to the affect of that if the guy wants to live in the past and not let his website go anywhere then he should go with PHP but JSP is the wave of the future and it's more powerful, and has the backing of the almighty Sun and the Open Source community (as if PHP doesn't). THE JIST So, the jist is, what does PHP have to offer to the web in the future? I think it's still a viable option that will be around for at least another 6-7 years. This kid thinks it's shelf life is another 3.

I'm actually revisiting this after 8 months or more. I have never gotten sessions to work on my server and here's the problem: Page 1: Create session register a variable. SessionID created is say: 555 (for example) On the drive in /tmp I get a file sess_555 and it contains my variable. I submit a form to another page with additional variable info. Page 2 Page two creates the session and recalls the first variable, it is empty. I set the variable which I posted to the page. If I echo $PHPSESSID to the screen I get 555. But in /tmp I have another file sess_777 Contained in sess_777 is my second variable. Is this too abstract? Do I need to give code? I even do session_name($PHPSESSID); before session_start() and get the same results. 8 months ago, nobody had an answer for me.

Re: [PHP] Teen Hobos having sex? ..no.. but MAYBE
This is a classic case of someone not having formmail.pl from Matt's Script archive locked down. I found it very interesting that while Matt's Script Archive is setup to block you from using someone else's form as a referer to yours to prevent the use of your script from another server, he simply allows you through if you have no referer at all. And that's how someone used our server several times about 6 months ago. If you format a perfect querystring and simply hit enter on the browser, you can successfully send many people e-mail through formmail.pl if it's not modified to block 'no referer' references.

I think the majority is man hour. I actually handn't heard of lines of
code. I think that would be ridiculous, can you imagine. You get paid more
depending on your style:
If ($foo == "bar") {
$dofoo = fobar($foo);
} else {
$dofoo = foobar($bar);
}
Or
If ($foo == "bar")
{
$dofoo = fobar($foo);
}
else
{
$dofoo = foobar($bar);
}
I would never trust someone who charged by line.
I think in general it's about $100-$150/hour for programming/database work.

$location = getenv("HTTP_HOST") . getenv("REQUEST_URI");
Or if your system handles it do this:
$location = $HTTP_HOST . $REQUEST_URI;
This will concatinate the site requested with the rest of the url.

Um.. You're using double-quotes inside of double quotes. You need to use

Only thing I can think of is a loop:
$temparray = array();
Reset($array);
while ($elem = current($array)) {
if ($elem != "2") {
$temparray[] = $elem
}
next($array);
}
$array = $temparray;

Re: [PHP] Passing values from ASP to PHP
Well, if it's a query string it's easy...
In the ASP page you do:

%>
If it's posted form data do this:
<%
Dim Querystring
Querystring = ""
For each Item in Request.Form
if Querystring = "" Then
Querystring = Item & "=" & Server.UrlEncode(Request.Form(Item))
Else
Querystring = Querystring & "&" & Item & "=" &

' the above line isn't supposed to wrap
End If
Next

The history is that Alabanza used to be a Virtual Hosting service as well as dedicated. Well, they sold off their virtual hosting clients to "yourwebhost.com", which is owned by the same person and, they simply provide dedicated services now. Many of the Hosting companies that I have found to have great plans were all Alabanza-hosted companies. I knew a good friend of mine who worked for one of them. He said the servers they had from them were the most insecure on the Internet. When they would lock it down, Alabanza would open the hole again and tell them to stop messing with the server. One day they changed their root passwords and locked down the server tight (security-wise) They were given a cease and desist order. I have heard, however, that they have gotten a little more security conscience since then. -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager - New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] Terrible Hosting Experience
I just need to tell all of you about my terrible hosting experience with yourwebhost.com which owned by hostingventures.com which is also kinda owned by alabanza.com (same owners, I believe, different company) Anyway. I have several sites hosted for free with them because they USED to host non-profit organizations for free. We just haven't rocked the boat with them so we remain free. ;-) Well, what I'm about to say may be followed with "That's what you expect with a free hosting service." But they have done this to a paying client too. Two weeks ago they moved one of the domains I work with to another server (without prior notification) and they didn't bother even check the front page of the website to see if it came up correctly! The database wasn't moved over so almost the whole site was completely broken. Then The SSL Cert wasn't brought over with it (I found out later) so no orders could be taken. Two day later I realized that Cybercash was not installed on the same location on the server as the last server so no credit card charges could go through! 5 days went by with no e-commerce and 2 of those five days the site was completely disabled! When I e-mailed them (tried calling, no answer even though they have 'phone support' listed as an option on their website.) and they simply replied with 'the site is now working'. No explanation, no apology, nothing. I was so angry. I finally weeded an apology out of them and they offered me three months of free hosting. Well, gee, we're free hosted so there's nothing they can give us. I simply said that I hoped they learned that prior notification and CHECKING OUT THE SITE would be things they would do next time. Now, two weeks later I find today, BAM they did it to TWO MORE DOMAINS that I have hosted with them! I cannot believe this company. So, I try calling, I leave voicemail, no response. I call and hit 'zero' for the operator, it will either jump from phone to phone and eventually hit voicemail or they will pick up the phone and hang it up! Can you believe that?!

Correction
To quote from a previous e-mail from some one else:
If register_globals is true, the variable is also available in the
global scope as $rosen (as in Rosen's example).
If this does not work, it would seem that register_globals is not set [in
the php.ini file].

Re: [PHP] processing form data
Change your form method to GET and find out what's being passed.
Check your php.ini file. I think it's the "track vars" command that
determines whether the variables will be parsed on the next page.

If you create a table in a database that holds the information that you want
to capture for them with the username as the key to the database (no
duplicates) then when they login and they're authenticated. You can pull all
necessary information you want to track on them from the table and create
your page. So, one, physical page for all users.
If you're authenticating via .htaccess you can use the environment variable
"REMOTE_USER" to use as the username to do the select on the db. Something
like:
$user = getenv("REMOTE_USER");
$sql = "Select * from usertable where username = '$user'";

Re: [PHP] mysql problem
I think if you echo the error (echo mysql_error();) you will see the exact
error you would get if connected directly to the db.
You can do something like:
$result = @mysql_query($sql_query); // hide any errors
If (!$result) {
echo "Error: " . Mysql_error() . "";

If (mysql_num_rows($findit)) {

Or whatever code you want to add there.

I would make an upload form and put the image on the server.

Re: [PHP] mysql_fetch_array and row referencing under 4.0.4pl1

Re: [PHP] MySQL 3.23
My only issue was a symbolic link had to be created for Apache to start again. ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10 /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10 Oh, and I had to recompile PHP as a DSO in order to work with mysql 3.23 On 2/10/01 12:59 AM this was written: > On Fri, 9 Feb 2001 22:08:06 -0500, Jon Rosenberg > ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: >> I'm about to upgrade to mysql 3.23 on a production installation on >> linux >> with PHP 4.0.4pl1, has anyone had any problems with this >> combination, as >> compared to 4.0.4pl1 with 3.22.xx?

[PHP] Is it server Push?
I don't know what it's called so I don't know what to search for. I have had experience with ASP apps that sometimes I'll create some scripts, say a script does multiple operations. And I want it to print to the screen after each operation is done.. The user would get a running list. Doing operation. Done Doing this Done Etc With ASP it does it as you see it, with PHP it seems to do it all and the print to the screen. Is there a way to get PHP to do the same as ASP or is that just the way PHP works? -- Thomas Deliduka IT Manager - New Eve Media The Solution To Your Internet Angst http://www.neweve.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[PHP] "Trim" an array?
I looked through the archives and couldn't find anything on this.
I have a web form which takes 9 values to create a definition for a table
that would have up to 9 columns.
I made the table so that each form field is submitted as an array so that I
can simply step through each value and create the table definition, so:
(duplicated 9 times)
Now, when I submit the form the resulting array always has 9 elements and
some of those will be empty.
I would like to do error checking in case people didn't fill anything at all
so I thought using if (!count($tblcol)) { But that doesn't work since it
always has 9 elements.
Is there a way to find out if an array contains no values even though it has
elements? Sort of like a trim() function on an array to destroy the
elements in the array that are empty.
Is it possible?

You know, this means that ALL of my hundreds of pages over multiple sites would break. That's really sad.

Re: [PHP] Zend Optimizer
When I look at the website (http://www.zend.com/zend/optimizer/) it says it works with PHP Version 4.0.3 or 4.0.3pl1 it says no early or later versions of PHP are supported so I would htink that is the reason why it's not working.
