[PHP] GD fonts and ImageLoadFont
Hello, I've been trying to figure out how to properly convert a bdf font into a GD font for use with ImageLoadFont. The conversion goes without a problem, and I can load and use the font, but for some reason, all the characters look as though they have a space inserted between them. So, instead of the number 20, I get something that looks like 2 0. Instead of Hello, I get something that looks like H e l l o. I've seen suggestions to use the php commands that use truetype instead of GD fonts, but we're working with a hosting company who does not have freetype installed (much less current versions of gdlib and php). Is there something I can do to get the GD fonts to space properly? Thanks, Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Writing to files
Not sure I understand how you concluded that web server should not create files, it certainly should not be able to create files on client machines without permission of user (which it cannot do). Users should not be able to upload files to the server without the permission of the web application, but if a web application performs the upload and controls where the file goes and what is in the file, that would be safe. If the web application completely controls where temporary files go and what goes in them (variables) then how is that unsafe? On the subject of using the database, check out which environment variables that actually control session management (you can do this by running the phpinfo() function. There are two major configuration options which you have full control over; 1. If the sys admin controls the default configuration of where to write the session data (usually points to /tmp directory), then the session_set_save_handler function is your way to override those parameters. 2. In fact if you read the routine that performs garbage collection (deletes expired session data) session management will pass to that routine the parameter that controls the default lifetime from the sysadmin's setup data, which you as the writer of the routine are free to ignore and use your own. Only caveat is you need to include these routines in every page that records data to a session (no big deal). I wish you luck on this, you seem to have been advised on some rules, by people who didn't know what they were talking about, or perhaps you understood their recommendations out of context, and that makes it hard for you. I really think session management is the way to resolve your problem. It would be interesting for you to get a couple of opinions on the subject of creating files on a server. You could create routines that would write to physical files in these save_handler functions and put them in your user directory if you like, but I would not mix these files in the same directory as your application code, perhaps a sub directory. I would be willing to bet there are log files that are updated on your server every time someone accesses one of your web pages.

When you check your info page, do sessions automatically start? If not, make
sure you do a session_start(); in there somewhere before you start checking
things.
Not sure why (lost in the annuls of time) but I always manually start/stop
my sessions.

[PHP] unique strings from string column type in mySQL
I have a column in a database with a column type of string that holds catalog numbers. They can be in two formats. 1: 410998 2: 555336-18 The 18 in the dash number represents a length. So there could be multiple entries with the same base, just a different int after the dash. I am experiencing two issues: First, when using the catalognumbers in a SELECT statement, only those without dashes return anything. Is there something I need to do with my datatype in order to use: $item = 555336-18; $sql = SELECT * FROM products WHERE catalognumber = $item; Second question, when I strip off the dash and following int(s), my select statement will work, even though the subtring I am then searching for doesn't really exist in the database. And if I have two numbers with that same subtring base they are both returned. For Example: $item1 = 555336-18; $item2 = 555336-7; $item = substr($item,0,6); $sql = SELECT * FROM products WHERE catalognumber = $item; Both items will be be returned, even without using %LIKE%. I'm guessing this all stems from my column type. Should I change it to something else, and if so what? Can anyone help out?

It's probably because by not using single-quotes around $item, you're forcing your column, which is a string, into a number. The DB does its best and takes as many leading characters as it can to make this number.

Re: [PHP] Changed localhost?
Hi, Did you try http://localhost , instead of 127.0.0.1, or with your machine, if you have changed any, recently. Or else just check if it conflicts with the port(s) if you have PWS also installed on your machine. If you don't get any solutions, alternatively post your query to the PHP Windows mailing list also. Hth, Karthick All of a sudden Apache is nor running correctly under Windows 98. It appears that somehow localhost was changed from 127.0.0.1 to something else.

So asuming the user has an image compressed with 50 % and he does upload this picture through my application, PHP will blow up the size by going back to 75 %. Quality stayes the same.

[PHP] Unusual Form situation?

form's contents.
The form is a html template used by a CGI script.
So, instead of having a 'submit' button for the form's content, there is a
GIF. The CGI apparently reads the GIF as a button to submit the form's
content and move on.
How would I go about getting php to recognize this GIF as such? Typically
for forms I use:
if ($submit) { blah, blah, blah }
Would I use if ($gifname)? Would the the GIF's name be the ALT tag? Or am I
going to have to sift through the arcane CGI to find some action?
Can I make the PHP come to life using the ACTION section of the form (which
only refers to the CGI right now)?

Re: [PHP] Unusual Form situation?
I assume that you are doing something like this for your image:
input type=image src=path/to/image/image.gif border=0 name=myimage
Given that, PHP gives you $myimage_x and $myimage_y which correspond to the
X and Y coordinates that were clicked on the image from the user.
So on the page that your form submits to, you can do the following:
if (isset($myimage_x) || isset($myimage_y)) {
// do something
}
If the image was clicked, this will submit your form, and both $myimage_x
and $myimage_y will be set.

[PHP] Form Annoyances
I'm having this one issue that's really bugging me - I have a textarea where
you can type in something - After typing it in, it goes to another page
asking you to verify, if it's correct, it inserts it into a database.
The page that asks you to verify holds the value of the textbox in a hidden
form field. If the value the user entered in contains any single (') or
double () quotes, it will mess everything up. Single quotes end up having a
backslash thrown automatically in front of it, and it inserts it into the
database WITH THE backslash. If there are double quotes, the HTML will get
messed up due to the fact that when it sees the quote, it will cut off the
rest of the value because if:
value=this is an example: Hello how are you.
everything after example: is going to get cut off.
I tried putting the value in a query string, but when traveling across two
pages, it seems to do the exact same thing.
Any suggestions?

[PHP] apostrphe's entered into MySQL database
Hi,
I've sent a few emails thus far regarding adding apostrophe's through a PHP
script form into a MySQL database. The responses I received indicated to
me that I needed to get my hosting company to activate magic_quotes_gpc.
After several days of talking with what seems to be the sole tech support
person left at my hosting company - I was told that the magic_quotes_gpc
variable is not supported by them.
Sooo ... this leaves me in a rather awkward situation. I need to have a
basic content management system up and running in the extremely near future
that will be utilized by a great number of individuals. If when an
apostrophe is entered - all the information entered through the form is
rejected by the database - the entire endeavour suddenly becomes rather
useless.
I know that if I enter a \ before any apostrophe's in the form, it all
works well ... but I highly doubt that the large number of volunteer's
we're going to be working with here will take the time to add them, or even
remember 5 minutes after I tell them.
Does anyone have any possible solutions for this problem? I'll include the
portion of code that seems to be causing the problems now ...
I'm already using the addslashes() command and it is not working ... I'm
desperate at this point ...
Again, the following works flawlessly on my local test machine running
Apache 1.3.23 and PHP 4.1.1 with MySQL 3.23.39 but not at all on my web
host running Apache 1.3.12 and PHP 3.0.16 with MySQL 3.22.32

[PHP] Getting the compression rate of a jpeg image possible?
Hi there, I am wondering if it is possible to get the compression rate of a jpeg file?! As I did read on php.net creating a jpeg gives you a third parameter with the compression. Default is 75 %. So asuming the user has an image compressed with 50 % and he does upload this picture through my application, PHP will blow up the size by going back to 75 %. Quality stayes the same. So it is absolutly neccessary to know that value. Does somebody know how to get this thing?

[PHP] Re: Form Annoyances
Hi there :)
Use the addslashes() function prior to insertion to database, and
stripslashes() on retrieval from db before you display it.
//prior to db insertion
$myvar = addslashes($myvar);
//on retrieval
$myvar = stripslashes($myvar);
Since you are wanting to display it to the user before inserting to the
databse, you'll have to add, then strip before displaying, and then use the
addslashes() again prior to inserting.
When retrieving this data at a later point you'll have to use stripslashes()
again.
Hope this helps, Joe :)

I have created these 'groups of power', where you can add/remove users.

And a Mysql query:
// 'groups' is a table with a collumn for every section of the site.
$sql = SELECT section_power FROM groups WHERE id = 0 . $var . AND active

Fw: [PHP] maximum string length
Steven (and anyone else interested), I was working on email earlier in the day, and have just cleared my desk of all that 'junk'. Your reading for tonight (1024/1000/997 byte line length limits in email) can be found in the discussion of RFC 2646 available from sunsite.dk (and elsewhere) - one of the MIME format 'standards' for email. If you're that interested!? Regards, =dn It may be able to store 8MB, but each line can only hold 1024 characters. I ran into this using a string variable to store the message body of an HTML email. If I did not put a '\n' at the end of each line, I would get random '!' placed through the sent email. Maybe you know more about what Kancha is planning to do with this massive string, but the above criticism only applies to strings used to 'write' an email msg - and only to certain email servers/clients at that. It doesn't apply to strings within PHP, eg reading in the whole of some large text file and storing it in a string.

I assume that you are doing something like this for your image:
input type=image src=path/to/image/image.gif border=0
name=myimage
Given that, PHP gives you $myimage_x and $myimage_y which
correspond to the
X and Y coordinates that were clicked on the image from the user.
So on the page that your form submits to, you can do the following:
if (isset($myimage_x) || isset($myimage_y)) {
// do something
}
If the image was clicked, this will submit your form, and both $myimage_x
and $myimage_y will be set.

Subject: [PHP] Unusual Form situation?
I have form I am working with and trying to add some PHP
processing to the
form's contents.
The form is a html template used by a CGI script.
So, instead of having a 'submit' button for the form's content,
there is a
GIF. The CGI apparently reads the GIF as a button to submit the form's
content and move on.
How would I go about getting php to recognize this GIF as such?
Typically
for forms I use:
if ($submit) { blah, blah, blah }
Would I use if ($gifname)? Would the the GIF's name be the ALT
tag? Or am
I
going to have to sift through the arcane CGI to find some action?
Can I make the PHP come to life using the ACTION section of the form
(which
only refers to the CGI right now)?

Mário, It runs fine, either using the unified-ODBC or compiling PHP --with-iodbc as per the HOWTO at www.iodbc.org and using real ODBC drivers. As in every case with ODBC, the quality of your experience will be determined by the quality of the ODBC drivers you use. OpenLink provides free, non-expiring downloads at www.openlinksw.com for development and testing. Hope this helps!

Re: [PHP] apostrphe's entered into MySQL database
I don't see why addslashes wouldn't work, but why not roll your own?
$dbStr = preg_replace(/'/, /\\'/);
I believe that, in MySQL, you can also double-up single quotes to escape
them:
$dbStr = preg_replace(/'/, /''/);

Hi,
I've sent a few emails thus far regarding adding apostrophe's through a PHP
script form into a MySQL database. The responses I received indicated to
me that I needed to get my hosting company to activate magic_quotes_gpc.
After several days of talking with what seems to be the sole tech support
person left at my hosting company - I was told that the magic_quotes_gpc
variable is not supported by them.
Sooo ... this leaves me in a rather awkward situation. I need to have a
basic content management system up and running in the extremely near future
that will be utilized by a great number of individuals. If when an
apostrophe is entered - all the information entered through the form is
rejected by the database - the entire endeavour suddenly becomes rather
useless.
I know that if I enter a \ before any apostrophe's in the form, it all
works well ... but I highly doubt that the large number of volunteer's
we're going to be working with here will take the time to add them, or even
remember 5 minutes after I tell them.
Does anyone have any possible solutions for this problem? I'll include the
portion of code that seems to be causing the problems now ...
I'm already using the addslashes() command and it is not working ... I'm
desperate at this point ...
Again, the following works flawlessly on my local test machine running
Apache 1.3.23 and PHP 4.1.1 with MySQL 3.23.39 but not at all on my web
host running Apache 1.3.12 and PHP 3.0.16 with MySQL 3.22.32
