[PHP] Deleting directories...

2002-04-02 Thread Philip Jeffs

Hi,

I'm trying to delete non-empty directories. I'm using a windows 2000 server.
I have a script that seems to be trying to delete the directories as it should but it 
can't delete the directories because it does not have permission.
The script runs CHMOD on the direcory to make sure it has permission but it still 
doesn't work. 

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

Does the chmod operation actually work?

Does the user which runs the webserver have permissions to chmod the 
directories that you want to delete?

 Andreas,

 Great idea, but it doesn't work.  The $BASE_URL is empty.  Looking at a
 PHP book I have, it appears that I should be using the HTTP_HOST server
 environment variable, but being brand new to PHP, I have no clue how to
 get at the variable.  Can you enlighten me?

[PHP] help please - strange session behaviour on IIS with php4.1.2

2002-04-02 Thread Wolfram Kriesing

i've written a simple script, which tests the session behaviour on the IIS,
since it didnt seem to work
the following script should increase the session-var $testVar and display it
but it always stays at the same value
can someone explain that? is that a bug?

also if i would increase $_SESSION['testVar'] it doesnt work.

i have been looking at the server and the session-file is also updated, but
not with the new values, only the timestamp is updated, it seems

session_start();
// make the session variable globally available
// we have register_globals = Off
$testVar = $_SESSION['testVar'];

// init testVar to 1 or increase it
if( !isset($testVar) )
{
print 'set testVar to 1br';
$testVar = 1;
}
else
{
print 'increasebr';
$testVar++;
}

// i can put session_register before
// or after the 'if' it always happens the same
session_register('testVar');

print $testVar;


the environment:
- IIS-Server5.0, WIN2k
- PHP4.1.2
- session.auto_start = 0
- register_globals = Off

i am using the recommended-php.ini, that's why register_globals is off

thanks for help

Re: [PHP] WWW-Authenticate problem in Apache

2002-04-02 Thread Billy S Halsey

Hi,

I've never tried requiring authentication via a header (only through 
httpd.conf or .htaccess), but here's my best guess:

You're telling it what type of authentication to do, and you're telling 
it what realm to authenticate to, but:

- You're not telling it what to require, and you're not telling it where 
to find that info.

For example, with the httpd.conf format, you would have something like:

Directory /var/www/htdocs/foo
AuthType Basic
AuthName My Realm
AuthUserFile /var/www/auth/htpasswd
require valid-user
/Directory

Any reason you're not using .htaccess?

[PHP] Checking if a link is valid

2002-04-02 Thread Christoph Starkmann

Hi there!

This is a general networking problem, I guess...

$fp = fsockopen ($tempUrl, $tempPort, $errno, $errstr, 30);
// variables are fine, it works in most cases...

if ($fp)
{
fputs ($fp, GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n);
$code = fgets($fp,1024);
$code = str_replace(HTTP/1.1 , , $code);
$code = (int)$code;
echo $code;
fclose($fp);
echo  nbsp;a href=\ . $url . \ . $tempName . /abr;
}

I just have my code that does an fsockopen on a
webpage. This works just fine, and in most cases
I can extract the error code (404,200 etc.).
But now I experienced the following strange behaviour:
When trying this on a domain that is automatically
redirected by the provider, I just get a 404.
If I adress this site with my browser, I get
redirected and everything works fine.

The url in this case is http://www.gruppe-69.de/
't is redirected by my provider directly to
http://www.gruppe-69.com
but my linkchecker thinks it would be dead
(404)

Any idea how I can check this, too?

Thanx and cheers,

Kiko

RE: [PHP] BUG in recursion

2002-04-02 Thread Rick Emery

No, this is NOT a bug.  You recurse 10 times down into the function.
Therefore, as you come back up and exit the previous call to test(), you
complete Test's processing, which is to print j

The recursion process is as expected and correct

Why is there 10 j at the and. If this would work it can be

[PHP] Re: Including Picture in PHP

2002-04-02 Thread Michael Virnstein

if the output of graph.php is a URL, your code should work.
img src=/images/mypic.jpg

if graph outputs the image itself, you have to do it a bit different:

in the html it should look like:

img src=graph.php?...

and graph.php should do something like:

header(Content-Type: image/gif);

echo $imagecontent;

Hope that helps

Re: [PHP] help please - strange session behaviour on IIS with php4.1.2

2002-04-02 Thread Stephen Phillips

Hi,
It sounds like you are experiencing a similar problem to one I had.  It seems 
there are some problems with setting cookies when using IIS, and as I understand it 
one of the ways that sessions work is by storing the data in a cookie on the clients 
machine.  On the page at www.php.net it suggests appending the session id to the url, 
go here to look at that http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php,

An example of this would be;

?php
if (!session_is_registered('count')) {
session_register('count');
$count = 1;
}
else {
$count++;
}
?

Hello visitor, you have seen this page ?php echo $count; ? times.p;

?php
# the ?php echo SID? (?=SID? can be used if short tag is enabled) 
# is necessary to preserve the session id
# in the case that the user has disabled cookies
?

To continue, A HREF=nextpage.php??php echo SID?click here/A

on the notes at the bottom someone said this, sounds like a similar problem,

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
01-Apr-2002 04:30 
 
Using PHP 4.1.2 on IIS 5.0, Win2k, haven't migrated app yet to Linux
(later!)
Managed to eventually get the sessions to work as follows.
In the php.ini, session.auto_start = 1 
Then without a session_start(); 
$xvar = something ;
Use
session_register(xvar);
then u CAN retrieve from a later page using the new way:
$var = $_SESSION[xvar] ;
also without session_start();
even doing a var_dump($_SESSION); seems to work at least some of the time!

The odd thing is that storing vars using the new way:
$_SESSION[xvar] = something;
will save only for the CURRENT page, this gets lost when moving on to the
next page!
best regards
Mike 

Hope this helps with your problem,

Steve.

 i've written a simple script, which tests the session behaviour on the IIS,
 since it didnt seem to work
 the following script should increase the session-var $testVar and display it
 but it always stays at the same value
 can someone explain that? is that a bug?
 
 also if i would increase $_SESSION['testVar'] it doesnt work.
 
 i have been looking at the server and the session-file is also updated, but
 not with the new values, only the timestamp is updated, it seems
 
 session_start();
 // make the session variable globally available
 // we have register_globals = Off
 $testVar = $_SESSION['testVar'];
 
 // init testVar to 1 or increase it
 if( !isset($testVar) )
 {
 print 'set testVar to 1br';
 $testVar = 1;
 }
 else
 {
 print 'increasebr';
 $testVar++;
 }
 
 // i can put session_register before
 // or after the 'if' it always happens the same
 session_register('testVar');
 
 print $testVar;
 
 
 the environment:
 - IIS-Server5.0, WIN2k
 - PHP4.1.2
 - session.auto_start = 0
 - register_globals = Off
 
 i am using the recommended-php.ini, that's why register_globals is off

[PHP] DB Question

2002-04-02 Thread Martin Clifford

Hello all,

I've been waiting in the shadows, reading, trying to get a handle on what type of 
questions go here.  I'm hoping this one does, and that some of you guru's might be 
able to offer some insight.

I've just started out with PHP, and want to get to know relational databases.  I've 
seen numerous tutorials that show you how to create the DB with PHP... something along 
the lines of... 

$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mylogin', 'mypass');

And the like... but here's my question...

You connect to the database program (MySQL in MyCASE, hehe) and create the database 
and tables you want to use, but... do you only have to run this PHP script once to 
create the database/tables... or do you have to run the lines that create the database 
and tables each time you want to write information to them or extract information from 
them?

I've not come across any tutorials that expand on that.  I'm guessing you run the 
script once to create the DB and Tables, then it's there.  After that, you need only 
write to/extract from them.  If anyone can please offer information on this I'd 
greatly appreciate it.  Also, direct replies to this mail address are encouraged, as 
I'm in digest mode and want to get your answers as soon as I can :o)

Take care all, and thanks in advance!

RE: [PHP] DB Question

2002-04-02 Thread Rick Emery

Normally, you'll create the databases within the native database
environment.  For instance, for mysql, at the mysql command line.

Then, you use PHP/PERL/C/sh/bash/... to access the database with various
queries, such as SELECT.

You also use the database native environment to update/maintain table
structures.

[PHP] how did this become an array?

2002-04-02 Thread The PHP newbie


Hi,

I am trying to figure out a part of the PHP code which belongs to one of
the files that is responsible for operating a discussion group.

I was examining some of a part of the code which produces the total number
of messages and displays the subject of the message.

I encountered a part that looks like this:

mysql_select_db(discussionboard, $db)
   or die(Couldnot select database);

$sql = select max(thread) as thread, max(mesgid) as mesgid from
discussionboard;

$result = mysql_query($sql)
or die(Query failed);

$numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);

$result_row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
echocenterbNo of topics: $result_row[0]br
No of total messages: $result_row[1]/b


What I don't understand is how did $result_row become $result_row[0] and
$result_row[1]?

Also what does it mean to select max(thread) as thread, max(mesid) as
mesgid?

I have never used this as command before.

Thanks for any insight.

RE: [PHP] how did this become an array?

2002-04-02 Thread Rick Emery

  What I don't understand is how did $result_row become $result_row[0] and
  $result_row[1]?

mysql_fetch_row() returns an array structure

  Also what does it mean to select max(thread) as thread, max(mesid) as
  mesgid?  I have never used this as command before.

max(x) returns the highest value for all records in that particular field
The AS clause renames the resulting field.  For instance, in this case,
max(thread) returns as a field named thread.  So you would access like:

$result_row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$mythread = $result_row['thread'];

I suggest you experiment in the mysql command line to see the various
results.

Re: [PHP] set browser timeout

2002-04-02 Thread Carl Schmidt

I'm uploading a file to a web site using forms.  I'm trying to narrow down
if the problem is the connection is timing out on file upload, or if I'm
exceeding a web host imposed limit on file upload size.  I've found the
server i'm running on has:
upload_max_filesize 2M
post_max_size 8M
Apache connection: 300 sec

1.  I was assuming that post_max_size (since I'm posting the file, not
uploading via ftp) takes precedence, so I should be able to upload up to
8M.
2.  I'm uploading via a T1, so there is no reason why the apache connection
should timeout
3.  However, no matter what I do, it seems that the file upload times out
after about 30 seconds for files below 2M.

So there are 2 things I need to test:
1.  Is it that the upload_max_filesize is really what is limiting the
upload  and my assumption is wrong? OR
2.  Is it just a coincedence that anything over 2M takes over 30 sec to
upload, and that the conenction times out after 30 seconds but the server
_could_ handle more?

Sorry for the long winded reply, but I wanted to provide some context for
this question I posted as best I could.  i was afraid if I put up the usual
file upload problems in the subject line it may get ignored.

if the problem is the connection is timing out on file upload, or if I'm
exceeding a web host imposed limit on file upload size.  I've found the
server i'm running on has:
upload_max_filesize 2M
post_max_size 8M
Apache connection: 300 sec

1.  I was assuming that post_max_size (since I'm posting the file, not
uploading via ftp) takes precedence, so I should be able to upload up to 8M.
2.  I'm uploading via a T1, so there is no reason why the apache connection
should timeout
3.  However, no matter what I do, it seems that the file upload times out
after about 30 seconds for files below 2M. 

So there are 2 things I need to test:
1.  Is it that the upload_max_filesize is really what is limiting the upload
and my assumption is wrong? OR
2.  Is it just a coincedence that anything over 2M takes over 30 sec to
upload, and that the conenction times out after 30 seconds but the server
_could_ handle more?

Sorry for the long winded reply, but I wanted to provide some context for
this question I posted as best I could.  i was afraid if I put up the usual
file upload problems in the subject line it may get ignored.

Is there an HTTP tag in the header that can be sent to tell the browser
not to timeout?  I found the HTTP spec page, but I'm not sure what to
look for.

 use cache control in your HTML to prevent BACK button usage
 This is easily done

I've tried this using the HTTP headers recommended on the header() man 
page, such as

header(Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT);
header(Last-Modified:  . gmdate(D, d M Y H:i:s) .  GMT);
header(Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate);
header(Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0, false);
header(Pragma: no-cache);

These don't seem to have the effect that I'm looking for.  Someone else 
on the list suggested storing a session variable that basically says 
this page  has been filled out, do not do anything if it has been 
resubmit which is a good idea, but I was hoping to have the user 
automatically re-routed to an error page if they hit the back button.  
(The session variable idea won't work until they refresh a page or 
submit a form, because they will be returning to a page in their 
history.)

[PHP] Please help me

2002-04-02 Thread Ing. Fernando Proll Segura

Hi all:

I was working with PHP 4.0.6, ISAPI on a Win2000, IIS server, ; now I install PHP 
4.1.2 on the same server but CGI module and I'm geting the following errors when I try 
to run any script:

Security Alert! PHP CGI cannot be accessed directly. 
This PHP CGI binary was compiled with force-cgi-redirect enabled. This means that a 
page will only be served up if the REDIRECT_STATUS CGI variable is set. This variable 
is set, for example, by Apache's Action directive redirect. 

You may disable this restriction by recompiling the PHP binary with the 
--disable-force-cgi-redirect switch. If you do this and you have your PHP CGI binary 
accessible somewhere in your web tree, people will be able to circumvent .htaccess 
security by loading files through the PHP parser. A good way around this is to define 
doc_root in your php.ini file to something other than your top-level DOCUMENT_ROOT. 
This way you can separate the part of your web space which uses PHP from the normal 
part using .htaccess security. If you do not have any .htaccess restrictions anywhere 
on your site you can leave doc_root undefined. If you are running IIS, you may safely 
set cgi.force_redirect=0 in php.ini. PHP Warning: Unable to load dynamic library

Re: Re: [PHP] Warning: Undefined variable

2002-04-02 Thread Adam Voigt

PHP does give warnings about undefined array positions if you don't use
quotes around them like $array1[var1] will warning (if warnings are on),
but $array1[var1] won't. I have never seen (even with error reporting
turned to the maximum setting) PHP throw an error about doing something
like: $robot = findRobot(); or whatever without defining var $robot; above
this, so I'm pretty sure it's ok not to define them, and other then organizationally,
it doesn't really serve a purpose since you can't define datatypes (strings, int's,
or any other type can go directly into the same $robot).

 I do prefer strongly-typed languages, such as C++.  That said, I love the

You could use a form and have a hidden vield that contains a value.  The
user would have to click the submit button for the variable/value to carry

i dont know if this really would solve your problem, but what i am using

{
$id = save( $_REQUEST['data'] );
if( $id != false ) // is it a valid id?
{
header('Location:'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?id='.$id );
die();
}
}
explaination: what it does is saving the $_REQUEST['data'] and on success, it 
reloads the same page again but without the posted data to show exactly the 
data that had been saved i use the $id returned by the 'save'-method, which 
is the id of the data set that was saved

so reload or back buttons wont disturb
on reload, simply the same page with the GET-param is reloaded
and back button goes to the page before, since it seems the 
header-redirection is not saved in the history

this only works for special cases:
- if you load the same page again, and want to show the entered data, it has 
to be the same page for showing and editing the data
- showing data also has to work using $_GET-parameters, as this is what the 
header function does

drawbacks are:
- only useful in some special cases
- browser gets contacted once more, than actually necessary ('header')

SV: SV: [PHP] Passing a variable invisibly via a href?

2002-04-02 Thread Daniel Alsén

 Yes, there is a way to do it without using any forms.  I may be able to
 help you better if you could show me the relevant code -- I'm not sure
 if what I have in mind is really applicable to what you want to do.

It´s not really advanced:

session_start();
session_register('text_size');

if ($change == inc) {
$text_size++;
}
elseif ($change == dec) {
$text_size--;
}

I use the variable $change to set the text size in my stylesheet:

if (isset($text_size)) {echo $text_size;} else {echo 10; $text_size = 10;}

And i set the variable via a link:

a href=? echo $PHP_SELF; ??change=inc (or change=dec)

Now - i don´t want the variable to be visible. And i would prefer if the
variable didn´t get set every time someone hit reload.

Or am i attacking this changing-text-size-thingy the wrong way?

Try this for your connection:

-
?

// Database constants
define(DATABASE_HOST, localhost);
define(DATABASE_USER, root);
define(DATABASE_PASSWORD, *YOUR_PASS*);
define(DATABASE_NAME, *YOUR_DB_NAME*);

// Establish connection
$dbLink = mysql_connect(DATABASE_HOST, DATABASE_USER, DATABASE_PASSWORD);
if(!$dbLink) {
print Unable to connect to the database, please contact Sysadmin
asap.;
} else {
   $dbUse = mysql_select_db(DATABASE_NAME, $dbLink);
}

[PHP] Problem reading in and displaying an image...

2002-04-02 Thread Chad Day

I'm trying to read in a 1x1 pixel file and display it, basically to assist
in setting 3rd party cookies (our other affiliated sites that don't follow
under the same domain.. it's really sloppily set up, but thats another
story)..  The problem I have is the script is just hanging, sits there and
does nothing, constantly trying to load..


setcookie($cookieName, $u, $expire, /);
setcookie($cookieName.logon, $t, $expire, /);

$fd = fopen(http://www.armytimes.com/images/spacer.gif;, r);
$image = fread($fd, 5024);
fclose($fd);
Header(Content-type: image/gif);
echo $image;

exit();


now, if I comment out the Header and echo $image; lines, the script works
fine, it reads in the file with no problem it seems.  But when I turn those
2 lines back on, it totally hangs.  does anyone have any ideas?  I am
totally stumped.

Thanks,
Chad

Re: SV: SV: [PHP] Passing a variable invisibly via a href?

2002-04-02 Thread Erik Price


On Tuesday, April 2, 2002, at 10:28  AM, Daniel Alsén wrote:

 I use the variable $change to set the text size in my stylesheet:

 if (isset($text_size)) {echo $text_size;} else {echo 10; $text_size =

 And i set the variable via a link:

 a href=? echo $PHP_SELF; ??change=inc (or change=dec)

 Now - i don´t want the variable to be visible. And i would prefer if the
 variable didn´t get set every time someone hit reload.

 Or am i attacking this changing-text-size-thingy the wrong way?

Hmm.  I thought that I had a clever solution for you, but I don't.  The 
one that I came up with would probably be far more complex and inelegant 
than you would ever want to use.  If you were submitting your data to a 
database or some kind of service, then it would work (I am thinking of 
the PostToHost() function in the archives), but since you are trying to 
set a session variable, you really need to refresh the page in the 
process.  This means that either using a form with POST data or the 
querystring method that you mention above is really the best way to do 
it.

If you used a form with POST data, you'd probably want to use radio 
buttons or make a little listbox and a submit button, like:

form method=post action=?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?
select name=change
  option value=incIncrease Size/option
  option value=decDecrease Size/option
/select
/form

This would keep your querystring/URL free of extra data like 
page.php?change=inc.

2002-04-02 Thread Adam Voigt

The set_error_handler didn't work correctly in that it wouldn't execute except
when trigger_error was called, otherwise this would have worked great a week
ago when we were trying to implement this. Thats why we went with a error log
which was auto-emailed by a timed script.

Re: [PHP] set browser timeout

2002-04-02 Thread Jason Wong

On Tuesday 02 April 2002 22:44, Schmidt, Carl wrote:
 I'm uploading a file to a web site using forms.  I'm trying to narrow down
 if the problem is the connection is timing out on file upload, or if I'm
 exceeding a web host imposed limit on file upload size.  I've found the
 server i'm running on has:
 upload_max_filesize 2M
 post_max_size 8M
 Apache connection: 300 sec

 1.  I was assuming that post_max_size (since I'm posting the file, not
 uploading via ftp) takes precedence, so I should be able to upload up to
 8M. 

My understanding of those settings is that:

upload_max_filesize determines the maximum size of a file and 
post_max_size determines the maximum size of the post which is all the bits 
of a form -- all the inputs, the textareas, the files etc.

Thus the settings you have above would limit your max file size to 2MB.

 2.  I'm uploading via a T1, so there is no reason why the apache
 connection should timeout
 3.  However, no matter what I do, it seems that the file upload times out
 after about 30 seconds for files below 2M.

 So there are 2 things I need to test:
 1.  Is it that the upload_max_filesize is really what is limiting the
 upload and my assumption is wrong? OR
 2.  Is it just a coincedence that anything over 2M takes over 30 sec to
 upload, and that the conenction times out after 30 seconds but the server
 _could_ handle more?

Try increasing the upload_max_filesize and see what happens

[PHP] odbc vs mysql

2002-04-02 Thread Maris Kalnins

When connecting to database (Sybase) through ODBC it takes some time to
establish odbc connection with:

$cx=odbc_pconnect($G_dbname, $G_dblogin, $G_dbpassw);

And only after that I am able to access data through SQL Selects

The problem is that every time the script is finished this connection is
automatically closed,
how to keep it open after displaying a page - no idea ...

How about using MySql in this situation?
There will be no need to waste time connecting to ODBC every time,
is it really so? could this be faster?

is there any idea how to keep ODBC connections open after script is
finished?

Any other solutions?

Thanks

P.S. I tried to use Sybase funcitons.. but it says - that they're not
defined or something like that..

[PHP] global vars within 2-level functions

2002-04-02 Thread Erik Price

I have some code, in which I am using the function keyword to create 
subroutines of code (in otherwords, not true functions but rather 
reuseable chunks of other code).

Yeah, it's ugly, but I need to do it this way for now.

So my question is this:  One of my subroutine/functions generates a 
variable.  I would like to make this variable available to another 
subroutine/function, which is called from the first 
subroutine/function.  If what I say is confusing, think of it like this:

function1
   - creates variable_A
   - calls function2

function2
   - needs to access variable_A

The problem is that this variable is not available to function2, even if 
I use the global keyword.  The only way I can pass this variable to 
function2 is if I pass it as an argument.  However, in some cases, I 
need to call function2 without this argument, but this creates some 
Warnings which I don't want to see.  I don't want to just suppress these 
warnings, how can I either

(a) Pass a variable from a function to a subfunction called from the 
first function
(b) Pass a variable as an argument to a function but make that argument 
optional so that it does not have to exist to make the function 
legitimate.


Thank you,

Erik

Well, not really.  This easter egg has been in the code since April 2000,
so it isn't actually a new thing.  We had this same discussion in April

You just need to edit it until it works.

[PHP] Counting months between two dates

2002-04-02 Thread John Hughes

I want to determine the number of months between two dates. Is there a
function in PHP or a way to make strtotime do the job?

For instance, how many months between 2001-08-27 and 2002-06-05.

Thanks for the pointer.  I didn't realize that passing a blank argument 
would achieve this effect.

John,

Are you pulling dates from mysql?  If so, let mysql do it for you.
If you don't know how, ask again.

[PHP] header location redirect to frameset target

2002-04-02 Thread Tom Beidler

Can you specify a frameset target, i.e. _blank, in a redirect. I have a site
built with frames and one of the frames has a redirect in it. Currently the
redirect works but pulls the site I want up in the frame and doesn't create
an entire new page.

Re: [PHP] header location redirect to frameset target

I think what your looking for is _new, but I'm not sure if you can do it
in what I guess your saying is a meta refresh, I know you can as target=_new
in a href.

 How does that relate to readline()?

With fopen() you can do something like:

  cat textfile | myprog.php


readline() is for interactive input.


What exactly are you trying to do?
