I was thinking if you use 90 character long filenames, assuming you only

which is quite a bit. Hopefully the numbers involved would make it
infeasible for an attacker to loop through all the permutations.
But what if the attacker just knows one file's name, for example index.php
or something that's in the url in the browser. Then he/she can stole that
file, read it, and gets other filenames because of includes/requires.
With some work he/she can get all the files without any bruteforce
filename guessing.
Well if a php file is parsed to the server, then they can't determine what
the orginal included fiels were at all, unless you're dumb enuff to do this:
!-- include /inc/secret/passwords.inc --
?
include('/inc/secret/passwords.inc');
?
:)
If you adopt some of the practices (I think) included earlier in this thread
by me, you could restrict browser access to your inc files by the use of
smart file naming, dedicated directories and .htaccess files, then this
should cover the basics of people grabbing your included files (with
passwords etc) via http (browser).
It doesn't cover people within the server (others on a shared server, etc)
though.

Re: [PHP] supersession
I think there is also a directive in php.ini to ALWAYS include a certain file at the top of each script, transparently. Perhaps you could dynamically write to this file as needed, or dynamically write to a MySQL table which is called/queried by this script.

PHPLib has session functions, and was essentially what people used before PHP4. It will of course require a fair bit of work to port your scripts across.

No, but you can do it this way:
switch ($foo) {
case 1:
...
do_something();
break;
case 2:
...
do_something();
break;
case 3:
do_something();
break;
}
function do_something() {
# this is the stuff that you want to do that is common to your

}
This accomplishes the same thing.

Re: [PHP] [Session] SID automatically add on all pages?
enable-trans-sid appends a session id to URLs, but it works in conjunction with php's session functions. Simply compiling with --enable-trans-sid or appending it to the URL yourself will not maintain session. using functions like session_start() and the registering of session variables ($_SESSION['something'] = foo;) will establish/maintain a session. enable-trans-sid will only append a session ID to the URL for you if needed... it's main use is for maintaining session across multiple pages whilst not relying on cookies. simply converting your files to .php and compiling with enable-trans-sid will not give you sessions.

[PHP] bug in sessions
Hello,
i discovered bug in sessions:
when using unset($_SESSION[...]) insted session_unregister(...) and
before calling read _$SESSION[...] variable WILL NOT unset.
please try these examples and see result.
here is method how to produce this bug (you must have cookies enabled):
1. run script
2. reload page (you should see 2 $_SESSION arrays with the same value)
3. click on unset link
4. now you should see first array filled with test value and second
should be empty - that's OK - but variable test should be deleted from
session
5. reload page
6. here is BUG: i unset session variable test so i shouldn't exists,
but exists.

7. comment line marked #fatal
and go to repeat process from begining
on step 6. both arrays will be empty
cut here--
?php
session_start();
echo 'pre';
print_r($_SESSION);
if (isset($_GET['submit'])) {
$test = $_SESSION['test']; # fatal
unset($_SESSION['test']);
} else {
$_SESSION['test'] = 'this is test';
}
echo 'a href='.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?submit=yesunset/abr';
print_r($_SESSION);
echo '/pre';

cut here--
replaceunset($_SESSION['test']); with
session_unregister('test'); and repeat process - here will be
everything OK.

[PHP] include files or fopen
Hi, I am trying to write a program that is very modular in nature one of the features I need the user to be able to do is install/uninstall or enable/disable the module though the interface. I have though of 2 ways this could be done, either when the module is installed it adds additional lines to an include file, which means the next time the page is loaded the new module will also be included. Alternatively I though of writing my own config files and using fopen etc to read in the values and store them as appopriate. If I was writing this as a compiled program in C / Java, I would definately use the fopen method as the operation only needs to be done either a program start or when a new module is added. However with PHP the operation would need to be done on each page request. As far as I can tell both methods ultimately come down to opening a file and reading it in, but I would think that the built in include directive would be less of a performance risk that writing my own handler. The problem is by using include files I run the risk of if my script/server crashes half-way though a write or the user makes an error when editing the page directly it would possibly bring down the whole app, where as if I read the values in via my own file methods I can ensure that the values and syntax are valid before acting upon what is read in. Therefore if my assumptions are correct I am caught between either possibily having a faster program but is possibly not a resiliant to error, or a slower program that is more resiliant and can exit nicely on error. Any thoughs that people have on this would be appriciated. Regards Lee -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Steve,
Thanks very much. This make total sense to me. Now, I was pretty sure that
I was getting an array back from mysql_fetch_array because when I do a
'print $myCourses' without specifying any value, I just get 'array' which I
believe I am supposed to, IF it is truly an array. Anyway, I'm going to
revisit the mysql_fetch_array function right now. Thanks for your help, it
is greatly appreciated.

Hi All,
I've stumped myself here. In a nutshell, I have a function that returns

$result = mysql_query( SELECT C.CourseName FROM tblcourses C, tblusers

if ( ! $result )
die ( getRow fatal error: .mysql_error() );
return mysql_fetch_array( $result );
}
end code
I call this from a PHP page with the following code:
begin code--
$myCourses = getCourses($session[id]);
foreach ($myCourses as $value)
{
print br$value;
}
end code---
Now, when I test the SQL from my function directly on the database, it
returns just want I want it to return but it isn't working that way on my
PHP page. For results where there is a single entry, I am getting the
same
entry TWICE and for records with more than a single entry I am getting
ONLY
the FIRST entry TWICE.
Now I know my SQL code is correct (I am testing it against a MySQL
database
using MySQL-Front) so I suspect I'm doing something stupid in my foreach
loop.
I think your problem lies in a misunderstanding of the
mysql_fetch_array() function. It doesn't return the entire result set
in an array - just one record at a time. You can fix this in one of
two ways:
(1) Loop though the entire result set in your function:
function getCourses($UID)
{
global $link;
$ResultSet = array();
$result = mysql_query( SELECT C.CourseName FROM tblcourses C,
tblusers U,
tblEnrollment E WHERE C.ID = E.CourseID AND E.UserID = U.ID AND
U.ID =
$UID, $link );
if ( ! $result )
die ( getRow fatal error: .mysql_error() );
while ($Row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ))
{
$ResultSet[] = $Row['C.CourseName'];
}
return $ResultSet;
}
...
$myCourses = getCourses($session[id]);
foreach ($myCourses as $value)
{
print br$value;
}
or (2) set a flag in getCourses() so that the query is only executed
once, otherwise returning a result line - something like:
function getCourses($UID)
global $link;
static $result = false;
if (!$result)
{
$result = mysql_query( SELECT C.CourseName FROM tblcourses C,
tblusers U,
tblEnrollment E WHERE C.ID = E.CourseID AND E.UserID = U.ID AND
U.ID =
$UID, $link );
if ( ! $result )
RE: [PHP] bug in sessions
Same for me (PHP4.2.1 on Win). Unset removes the variable from the
session for the duration of the script, but doesn't actually remove it
from the session. Using session_unregister() does remove the variable
from the session. You should post it as a bug, Michal, or tell them to
change the documentation.

[PHP] Register Globals = off
Hi Going through some literature, it seems like the use of registered globals can cause security issues. Now, the dilemma, all my previous PHP installations ( for the last year or so ) have come with register globals = on in the php.ini file by default, and users on my system has happily coded their websites using this function. Now , with all the new versions of PHP, the registered globals are turned off in the ini and will basically cause all those previous sites not to function. Which means that I'm between a rock and a hard place, turn the register globals back on and carry on with the security risks, or keep it off and have all those people re-code their sites... Is there a more gentle solution out there? Am I just misunderstanding the issue? Any light on the matter will be appreciated.

Thus the global setting for register_globals, ie php.ini, can be off. Then for each of your users who have not yet recoded, enable register_globals in their virtual host setting. Thus the people who have bothered to recode will be able to benefit from a more secure application without being affected by the people who have not yet recoded. -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.com.hk Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design Hosting * Internet Intranet Applications Development * /* Depart in pieces, i.e., split. */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] XML Problem
Hello, I am having some problems parsing XML with PHP. Here is an example of my problem: Example 1: PAGE TAG1 SOME TEXT /TAG1 /PAGE When I try to use the expat XML functions I cannot parse TAG1 in the above example. I simply get nothing. However with the following example: Example 2: PAGE TAG1SOME TEXT/TAG1 /PAGE I have absolutely no problems. I get the text in between TAG1 without any problems. However I have some very long documents that I would like to translate to XML and I cannot put the whole document on one line, as it would be impossible to read. I have, however seen other XML files like example 1 that were parsed fine, AND they were parsed with the expat functions. I cannot figure how though. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [PHP] Register Globals = off
You could leave the setting to ON in your php.ini, and impose OFF on a per-directory (account, domain, etc) basis with a .htaccess file (or vice-versa), assuming you have Apache. This will mean all new clients will have the setting to OFF, and will do things the right way from day 1. It will also allow existing clients to modify their setting to OFF (as I do on a shared server) to keep things a little more secure. You could also advise all existing clients of a planned changeover in 12 months, offer code advise (including a simple function at the top of each script can push all $_GET['var'], POST, SESSION, etc vars into standard $vars), and document the many security holes and benefits of upgrading over time. In 12 months, you can changeover to OFF in the php.ini file. At which time coding practices, books, websites, applications and all the rest will be much more inline than they are now.

RE: [PHP] [Session] SID automatically add on all pages?
Tim,
You might want to look into a good templating solution, too. You can
make it so the customer can maintain all of the HTML and you maintain
the PHP, and it's all kept separate. It's would be similar to what it
looks like you are doing now.
Instead of telling the client to put ?=makeBuyButton(black shoes, size
34)?, you could do something like BuyButton type=shoes size=34,
which may be easier for someone with an HTML background to understand.
It's up to you.

RE: [PHP] [Session] SID automatically add on all pages?
Thanks for the help guys. The one-line include is definitly a very good
idea, which I'll use.
Templating is very interesting, although, only if it works exactly as you
say, with HTML-like tags. I looked at Smart, patTemplate en some others,
but they all use {} or [] style tags. In that case, I prefer de php. If
anyone knows of a template-engine that can recognise the difference between
a custom-tag with and a HTML-tag, I'd appreciate the URL :)
For now, I'm going to make this work.

Re: [PHP] fopen(); deciding if going for the IP or domain.
The manual shows fopen(http://www.php.net/,r;) works. If you are saying it is only today that it is not working then I wonder if the server (or dns server for it) is down. If on unix, does dig domain.com give an ANSWER section with ip address? If on NT, does nslookup domain.com give an ip address? (with domain.com changed to be whatever server the url you are looking for is on). I don't know anything about the particular error you are getting but maybe the above are some pointers (assuming you didn't just do a typo).

RE: [PHP] XML Problem
You were right, I found the following:
# Declare the function that runs each time
# character data is encountered.
function CharacterHandler($Parser, $Line) {
global $CData;
# Place lines into an array because elements
# can contain more than one line of data.
$CData[] = $Line;
This should, obviously solve the problem, but I am not sure how I should go
about using it?
Later on, you make the $Cdata a string, $temp, and then the next time you
use it: $Temp = $Data['TRADE-DATETIME']
You re-assign it again without using the data. Did I miss something?

RE: [PHP] [Session] SID automatically add on all pages?
Well Tim, I don't have much time working with PHP, but I did study the
template format made by Ying Zhang. I found it when searching for a
shopping cart - PHP made - script. If you want to look at it, search
hotscripts for mymarket. To give you an idea, I make just one page
with session_start() for all my sites... in the header.inc which is
obviously inserted at the top of every page... This page also inserts
the login and logout functions, so I can make all the other pages
without having to worry about session management.
I don't know if this is going to help you, but it sure makes my life
easier when working with sessions.

Thanks for the help guys. The one-line include is definitly a very
good
idea, which I'll use.
Templating is very interesting, although, only if it works exactly as
you
say, with HTML-like tags. I looked at Smart, patTemplate en some
others,
but they all use {} or [] style tags. In that case, I prefer de php.
If
anyone knows of a template-engine that can recognise the difference
between
a custom-tag with and a HTML-tag, I'd appreciate the URL :)
For now, I'm going to make this work.

Re: [PHP] Getting IP from behind proxies
why not assign your user a unique id when they first visit you site and this is registered in a database. The unique id is then passed from page to page in the URL (i.e. get method) when they submit their vote, the PHP page: 1: check to see if that Unique ID is stored in the database (checks it hasn't just been made up) 2: checks to see if the Voted field is set to false if either of the above return as FALSE reject the vote because either the user has already voted or they modified the unique id to try and cheat the system. Now, the only way for them to make multiple votes is to keep getting to the voting page by going back to your homepage and following the links to your vote page or to make up a unique id and hope it's already been created by someone else. Every time you change the poll, you should empty the database as there could be a few unique ids that were created but the visitor didn't vote. It's a bit overkill for a web poll though!!!

Even that is not quite foolproof. Personal certificates might be an option here, but that is rather cumbersome for everyone involved. Basically there is no good solution for this problem.

[PHP] Finding all instances
Hi, I have a little problem I am trying to solve but right now I have no idea where to begin. I am preying that someone out there might be able to help me. In my MySQL database I have a group of figures, one for each record. Through PHP I have concluded at a 'magical' number which I will need to compare against. What I need to do is try to find all instances or combinations of figures from the database which fit inside this magical figure, but how I do this I am not sure. I'm thinking I need to somehow read the figures into an array somehow but I have not had enough experience with php to know how to even do this effectively. I have read up on the issue but it all seems double dutch, and I don't know what I need to do from this point anyway. For example: Magic Number: 7 Numbers in database: 12, 6, 2, 8, 5, 3, 1 Combinations returned: 1, 3, 5, 2, 6, 52, 32, 321, 51, 61, 21, 31 Can anyone please help? Thanks, Michael.

RE: [PHP] include files or fopen
I am trying to write a program that is very modular in nature one of the features I need the user to be able to do is install/uninstall or enable/disable the module though the interface. I have, in the past, stored such information in a database. In projects that have need of such functionality I create a modules table and use that to store what information I need - normally that's a path to the module, the name of the config file for that module and any other relevant bits that the project as a whole needs to know about. Then when a page loads it can check for any appropriate modules in the process and deal with them accordingly.

[PHP] Globals bug??
We are seeing a rare bug that seems to imply that there is a bug in PHP's global variables across httpd processes. To make a long story short, it appears that on rare occassions our script gets the value of a HTTP_GET_VARS variable from another user's process. Is this possible? BTW, it seems to occur when using HTTP_GET_VARS and the new 'super globals'. FWIW, we're using PHP 4.1.2 on (Red Hat) Linux 2.4.9 with Apache 1.3.12. Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Globals bug??
I don't see how. But if what you are saying is actually happening, then it is a Linux kernel-level bug if memory is leaking from one process to another. No matter how badly we screwed up in PHP, the kernel prevents such a screwup from infecting a separate process. I'd suggest having a close look at your code. -Rasmus On 30 Jun 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We are seeing a rare bug that seems to imply that there is a bug in PHP's global variables across httpd processes.

Re: [PHP] More on removing item from cart
Hi Vicki:
I'm not going to cover everything in the email. BUT, the essence of
the solution is right here. I made a little test script based on the
values you said were in the cart array at the top of the page and the
variables contained in the form...
#! /usr/local/bin/php -q
?php
# Simulate the $cart session variable:
$cart[1] = 1;
$cart[3] = 1;
# Simulate the $checkbox array from the form:
# $checkbox[1] = 'yes';
$checkbox[3] = 'yes';
# Run through each item in the cart:
foreach($cart as $artID = $value) {
if ( !isset($checkbox[$artID]) ) {
unset($cart[$artID]);
echo br /removed $artID from cart\n;
} else {
echo br /kept $artID in cart\n;
}
}
?
This behaves exactly as expected. Now, let's put my foreach
loop from above (leave out all the rest of the stuff) in the place of
your foreach loop (which is in the if($save) statement).
Run it and things _should_ work right.

Same for me (PHP4.2.1 on Win). Unset removes the variable from the
session for the duration of the script, but doesn't actually remove it
from the session. Using session_unregister() does remove the variable
from the session. You should post it as a bug, Michal, or tell them to
change the documentation.

Hello,
i discovered bug in sessions:
when using unset($_SESSION[...]) insted session_unregister(...) and
before calling read _$SESSION[...] variable WILL NOT unset.
please try these examples and see result.
here is method how to produce this bug (you must have cookies
enabled):
1. run script
2. reload page (you should see 2 $_SESSION arrays with the same value)
3. click on unset link
4. now you should see first array filled with test value and second
should be empty - that's OK - but variable test should be deleted from
session
5. reload page
6. here is BUG: i unset session variable test so i shouldn't exists,
but exists.

7. comment line marked #fatal
and go to repeat process from begining
on step 6. both arrays will be empty
cut here--

[PHP] checking date is not greater than today
I am trying to compare a given date string (i.e. June 30, 2002 is 20020630). I want to make sure that the input string that is given is not greater than today (i.e. if today is June 30, and you ask for 20020701, I want to be able to throw an error).

[PHP] emulating enable_trans_sid
Hi, As discussed a few months back, I'm interested attempting to recreate PHP's enable_trans_sid feature, for users without cookies. ONLY if cookies are UNavailable, I want to open the output buffer, build the page, then run a reg exp or something over the output to append SIDs to all URLs (GET), then print it. I've got a pretty good picture in my head of how I'll test for cookies, and how I'll do the output buffering, but regexp's are NOT my thing :) I'm interested in hearing some opinions on the most efficient way to append the SID to all internal URLs on the page... this would include: - header(Location: something.php) - A href=something.php - FORM action=something.php My thoughts are that it would only be done for relative links (dir/something.php), NOT for fully qualified URLs (http://otherdomain.com, ftp://, mailto:, https://, ?), as per enable_trans_sid documentation. It would also have to accommodate URLs which already have a query string... if there's an existing query string, just append SID, otherwise append ?SID. This seems to me like a rather in-depth regexp already, and I'm sure i'm forgetting something. Perhaps there's a simpler way that I'm missing? The only simpler way I can think of would be to search for '.php' and '.php?' and act accordingly, but this has obvious problems when 'something.php' is type, but not in context of a link or header redirection. Where would I look to see the source of enable_trans_sid -- maybe this will give me some hints??

Re: [PHP] Fast code to partially flatten an array based on several keys?
Martin,
I said I'd let you know how I got on.
It's all working, but only realistically for no more than 500 or so records.
When I feed it 1+ records, the machine chokes.
So I'm back to textbooks just looking for clues on really fast sorting and
searching algorithms. I've written a mostly working quicksort routine, which
seems to have cut the time down significantly on searches, so I'll keep
plugging away at this.
Of course, now that it *appears* to be working, I'm getting a lot more work
dumped on me, so finishing it off is going to take a bit longer. =)

This is what I came up with before I saw this email, and eek, we think

This is going to be a bit iffy, but here goes (BTW: this hasn't been

$i = 0;

The other thing I just thought of is: can $row['dealer_id'] and
$row['vehicle_id'] be indexes to the array
$vehicles[$row['dealer_id']][$row['vehicle_id']][$row['company_id']]
= $row['page_views'];
so you'd get something like (manually created result...):

(

Martin,
Here's an example of what I implemented (simplified down again).
As you can see, it's hideously simple and not optimized in the least.
It works well on small datasets, but you can see by looking at it that
large
datasets get exponentially slower.
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$found = false;
$count = count($vehicles);
for ($j = 0; $j $count; $j++) {
if ( $vehicles[$j]['dealer_id'] == $row['dealer_id']
$vehicles[$j]['vehicle_id'] == $row['vehicle_id'] ) {
$vehicles[$j][$row['company_id']] = $row['page_views'];
$found = true;
}
}
if (!$found) {
$vehicles[$i]['dealer_id'] = $row['dealer_id'];
$vehicles[$i]['vehicle_id'] = $row['vehicle_id'];
$vehicles[$i][$row['company_id']] = $row['page_views'];
}
$i++;

this sort of merging would be easier to do when you create the array

I have a large dataset which can contain many different fields, and I'm
trying to flatten them in such a way that I can display it happily in a
table.
To simplify: I'm populating the array such (many many more fields, but
these
will do):
$i = 0;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$vehicles[$i]['dealer_id'] = $row['dealer_id'];
$vehicles[$i]['vehicle_id'] = $row['vehicle_id'];
$vehicles[$i][$row['company_id']] = $row['page_views'];
$i++;
}
Now, if that vehicle_id and dealer_id combination exist, instead of
adding
it as another record completely,
just add
$vehicles[$existing_id][$row['company_id']] = $row['page_views'];
The end result of this would be (if given two 'company_id' records for
the
given dealer):
(
[0] = Array
(
[dealer_id] = 645
[vehicle_id] = 35073
[1] = 10
)
[1] = Array
(
[dealer_id] = 645
[vehicle_id] = 35073
[0] = 6
)
)
Turns into:
(
[0] = Array
(
[dealer_id] = 645
[vehicle_id] = 35073
[1] = 10
[0] = 6
)
)
Can anyone think of a fast way to do this

RE: [PHP] Fast code to partially flatten an array based on several keys?
Sorting - are you sorting the array keys or the values ? If you're sorting the keys, maybe it would be better to have another array that holds a list of keys, sort that, and then use that as a pointer to the actual array. If you're sorting the values, then php has a good sort function (uses the quick sort algorithm if I remember rightly) -Original Message- From: Morgan Grubb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 01, 2002 1:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Fast code to partially flatten an array based on several keys?

Subject: [PHP] checking date is not greater than today
I am trying to compare a given date string (i.e. June 30, 2002 is
20020630). I want to make sure that the input string that is given is
not
greater than today (i.e. if today is June 30, and you ask for
20020701, I
want to be able to throw an error).
I'm a newbie, so I'm not sure the best way to do this. My thought was
that if I take the year () and add on the day-of-year (i.e. Feb 10

041) then I would be able to compare them as you would any other

The problem I have then run into is that strftime and date seem to
have
different opinions as to what day of the year it is.
date
z - day of the year; i.e. 0 to 365
strftime
%j - day of the year as a decimal number (range 001 to 366)
I have these variables defined
$SEARCHYEAR =
i.e 2002
$SEARCHMONTH = MM
i.e. 06
$SEARCHDAY = DD
i.e. 30
$TODAYCMP=date (Yz);
$SEARCHCMP=strftime(%Y%j,mktime(0,0,0,$SEARCHMONTH,$SEARCHDAY,$SEARCHY
EA
R));
and then I tried it for today and got
echo !-- TODAY is $TODAYCMP SEARCHCMP is $SEARCHCMP -- ;
as a result I get
!-- TODAY is 2002180 SEARCHCMP is 2002181 --
So I'm trying to figure out:
A) Why strftime and date don't handle leap years the same way
and (more importantly)
B) The best way to make sure a given date MMDD is not greater than
today

I'm aware of this. What I'm trying to do is emulate this process on servers which have not compiled with --enable_trans_sid. I thought that was pretty clear, but perhaps not. In the ideal world, enable_trans_sid would have been compiled, but I'm yet to find many shared hosts where this has been done.

I thought that was pretty clear, but perhaps not. In the ideal world, enable_trans_sid would have been compiled, but I'm yet to find many shared hosts where this has been done. And since shared servers seem to be what my current client set are using, I'm looking at emulating enable_trans_sid.

ONLY if cookies are UNavailable, I want to open the output buffer, build the page, then run a reg exp or something over the output to append SIDs to all URLs (GET), then print it. I've got a pretty good picture in my head of how I'll test for cookies, and how I'll do the output buffering, but regexp's are NOT my thing :) I'm interested in hearing some opinions on the most efficient way to append the SID to all internal URLs on the page... this would include: - header(Location: something.php) - A href=something.php - FORM action=something.php My thoughts are that it would only be done for relative links (dir/something.php), NOT for fully qualified URLs (http://otherdomain.com, ftp://, mailto:, https://, ?), as per enable_trans_sid documentation. It would also have to accommodate URLs which already have a query string... if there's an existing query string, just append SID, otherwise append ?SID. This seems to me like a rather in-depth regexp already, and I'm sure i'm forgetting something. Perhaps there's a simpler way that I'm missing? The only simpler way I can think of would be to search for '.php' and '.php?' and act accordingly, but this has obvious problems when 'something.php' is type, but not in context of a link or header redirection. Where would I look to see the source of enable_trans_sid -- maybe this will give me some hints??

RE: [PHP] PHP with CSS
1. when you say the link, you're talking about the link tag right? if so, are you sure your syntax is correct - this tag is something I keep stuffing up (using src instead of href, forgetting rel=stylesheet [is this required?], setting type=text/stylesheet instead of type=text/css) 2. is the style sheet file accessable from the web can't think of anything else that could be wrong -Original Message- From: Bruce Karstedt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 01, 2002 3:17 PM To: 'Martin Towell'; 'PHP - General List (E-mail)' Subject: RE: [PHP] PHP with CSS Checking view source was the first thing I thought of.

Both external (CSS) and inline styles are ignored. If it was the only the external stylesheet that wasn't working, the first thing to do would be to check that Apache is configured to the right content type (text/css) for it and that the PHP code isn't doing anything silly like sending the dynamically-generating the *.css page with a header() declaring a different content type; but with the inline styles also not working, that scenario would either be unlikely or only part of the story. Have the HTML and CSS both been validated yet? If the output of your PHP includes syntactically-flawed HTML, that could lead to problems with the CSS rendering as well. And of course, invalid CSS will not render as expected. This final thought may already be obvious to you, but is there any chance that the styles you're using are either not supported by your browser, or that your page's doctype has accidentally triggered the browser's less-forgiving standards mode? (If any of this sounds unfamiliar, you can follow-up with a newsgroup or list where CSS is on-topic, such as news:comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets.)

I want to avoid this, because it adds a level of complexity to the construction of pages that I'm not comfortable with. With multiple writers, designers and programmers passing stuff around, it'll be way too easy to loose the session. I'm not really looking for easiest, I'm looking for the solution, regardless of how long it take to perfect, because this will be a write-once solution that I'll use over and over. It's quite possible that the end solution will require a decent HTML parser or state engine.

Justin It's quite possible that the end solution will require a decent HTML parser or state engine. Fun fun :) Do you have any JS that will have to be altered because of what you're trying to do. 'Cause if you have to write an HTML parser, you'd prob have to write a JS parser too :) More fun for ya!
