You need to start the session before any html. So: ?php session_start(); ? html Cheers! Rick Too much caution is bad for you. By avoiding things you fear, you may let yourself in for unhappy consequences. It is usually wiser to stand up to a scary-seeming experience and walk right into it, risking the bruises as hard knocks. You are likely to find it is not as tough as you had thought.

I'm trying to use xslt_process() to transform a variable containing XML data
with an xsl file into a result using PHP. Incidentally the XML is from an
external source, i.e. a database. However despite following the examples in
www.php.net I am unable to do so. The code works out to something like this:
if (! empty($searchword ))
$query = SELECT aml FROM arguments WHERE aml LIKE '%$searchword%';
$result = mysql_query($query) or die (Query failed);
$line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC);
var_dump($line);
// Create an array
$arguments = array('/_xml'= $line);
//XSL file
$xsl = ./sheet1.xsl;
// Create an XSLT processor
$xslthandler = xslt_create();
// Perform the transformation
$html = xslt_process( $xslthandler, 'arg:/_xml', $xsl, NULL, $arguments);
// Detect errors
if (!$html) die ('XSLT processing error: '.xslt_error($xslthandler));
// Destroy the XSLT processor
xslt_free($xslthandler);
// Output the resulting HTML
print $html;
What I get on the screen is:

And:

To add search functionality I decieded this was the best table structure I
could come up with for a keywords table.
Here it is:
CREATE TABLE article_keyword (
aid int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
keyword char(50) NOT NULL default '',
weight tinyint(2) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (aid),
KEY keyword (keyword),
KEY aid (aid),
KEY weight (weight)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
Using that structure could I get a decent search?
I would probably add up the weight for each keyword(Where it is searched
for). Then sort it by the most 'relevent' then I could use a join to get
the
title, time etc of the article and return the results.
What I am asking is that if this is a good table structure for something
like this(N00B alert!). If not could you please give me a better one?

How come if I convert from 1000 from Binary to Hex in calculator, it returns 8, but when I use the PHP bin2hex function, it returns loads of 3s and 0s Georgie Casey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Rite, There's a PHP script that takes a monochrome BMP and converts it into some sort of hex code and I've noticed some patterns with this code. This image is 72 pixels wide by 14 high so there's 1008 pixels. In the code returned, theres 252 chars, which is 1008 divided by 4. So I guessed the image is split into 4 pixels each. So if I pass an image with the first pixel black and everyhting else white, it returns 8 for those 4. If I pass an image with the first and second black, it returns c. With the first three black, it returns e. With the first 4, f. And if I have the 5th pixel black it goes onto the next char code, eg returning f for the first 4 pixels, then 8 for the 5th pixel black, ie the first pixel in the next 4. In total it returns f8. PS I tried reading in each pixel of the script, checking if it was black or white, 1 for black, 0 for white. Then converting these 0s and 1s from decimal to hex, then converting from binary to hex, but to no avail. Then I tried taking a set of 4 1s or 0s and converting them, but still no luck. So my questions is, does anyone know how theyre encoding the image I could probably could decipher the coding with some experimentation but it really looks like hex and I might be

RE: [PHP] == vs = should generate a warning or error -- was: Why won't this work?
If you want to get a warning when you accidentally do an assignment instead
of a comparison ( = instead of == ), get in the habbit of putting the
constant/function FIRST when you're doing a comparison.
For example, using 'while(mysql_fetch_row($result) = $row)' or 'if(5 = $x)'
should give the warning you're looking for because you can't assign $row to
mysql_fetch_row, or $x to 5.

Subject: RE: [PHP] == vs = should generate a warning or error -- was:

That would suck since many many PHP programs use stuff like:
while($row=mysql_fetch_row($result)) { ... }
There is absolutely nothing wrong with doing an assignment in
a conditional and if it generated a warning it would drive a
lot of people crazy.
First off, I have to LMAO at that would suck.
So unexpected but humorus.
But seriously, this is why I suggest it be a config file option. Not a
new way of doing things, to break old code. But something toggle-able.
Or, I'm sure the PHP parser could be made smarter to look for common
'assigments' that are supposed to be 'conditions'.
For example I seriously doubt that NOBODY EVER means to do
if ($x = 5)
{
}
That CLEARLY is supposed to be using a == and not =
And I'm sure there are other such obvious cases that the parser could
check for somehow.
Just a suggestion. Thass all.

There's no need to be doing all of the array manipulation. Just use the variables in

[PHP] Can a form submit to two PHP form processers in succession?
Hi, I'm not sure how to do this but I have a form which I wish to do the following. When the uses clicks the submit button, I wish to perform a check where I look for a value in a MySQL database. If found, I need to return an error page telling the user that the value already exists. I assume that I can just POST to a PHP page that performs the check. If the value was not found, I would like to POST the results to a PHP form handling script I use. The above tow are separate PHP documents that are not connected.

No extra parameters have been added to the mysql_connect() function. The error you're seeing is straight from mysql...so it's really not php. Mysql says Using password: YES because you're trying to login in with a password. If you took out password in the mysql_connect() function, it'd say Using password: NO.

[PHP] Re: Newbie getting close, form submission
Work by process of elimination... Here goes...
Start with testing whether your mail will actually send
the mail by executing a one line script... Just out of curiosity:
how come your host is running an old version of php...
Test the following:
?php
( [EMAIL PROTECTED], Testing, Just a Test, );
?
if possible try and run it as a script by connecting to your
host via telnet or whatever (I am assuming the platform
is UNIX or Linux):
php MyMailScript
If you are using Linux or UNIX and this doesn't work then
there ought to be something wrong with the sendmail file...
If you are on a MS Windows platform then there ought to
be a problem in the ini file with the smtp setting...
If it sends then we can start sticking echo statements in
your script to see where the breakdown is...
Drop another line on the news group if you still need help,
I'll be behind this monitor for a while as will others I'm
sure...
Spike...

[PHP] Windows NT Server, FORK, SOCKETS, and seperate processes
I've got effectivly a glorified chat server which upon the arrival of a message thorugh a socket connection goes off and runs a bunch of database processed. My questions is this: How can I seperate the database processing into a seperate processor process? I really don't want the chat server to have to wait until after the database processing is done to go intercept and process another request--this just doesn't seem right. I want the chat server process to be able to deal with getting and receiving messages, and another process to deal with the database processing. That way if one of the processes get's slow, the other isn't affected. Something like the fork command would work really well, but fork doesn't exist in NT. Anyone have any ideas?

Hey man, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the freakin sun. Atleast PHP tells you about holes, not like Microsoft who will fix it six months down the line (if they even admit a hole exists). Plus, if your running anything past 4.1.2 on production systems, it's your own damn fault because several times it has been said that the 4.2 series wasn't considered safe for production use. And by the way, don't want to use PHP anymore because of this? Then don't. PHP doesn't need you, the rest of the people who can handle an update without whining will be fine.

[PHP] PHP Security Advisory: Vulnerability in PHP versions 4.2.0 and4.2.1
PHP Security Advisory: Vulnerability in PHP versions 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 Issued on: July 22, 2002 Software: PHP versions 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 Platforms: All The PHP Group has learned of a serious security vulnerability in PHP versions 4.2.0 and 4.2.1. An intruder may be able to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the web server. This vulnerability may be exploited to compromise the web server and, under certain conditions, to gain privileged access. Description PHP contains code for intelligently parsing the headers of HTTP POST requests. The code is used to differentiate between variables and files sent by the user agent in a multipart/form-data request. This parser has insufficient input checking, leading to the vulnerability. The vulnerability is exploitable by anyone who can send HTTP POST requests to an affected web server. Both local and remote users, even from behind firewalls, may be able to gain privileged access. Impact Both local and remote users may exploit this vulnerability to compromise the web server and, under certain conditions, to gain privileged access. So far only the IA32 platform has been verified to be safe from the execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability can still be used on IA32 to crash PHP and, in most cases, the web server. Solution The PHP Group has released a new PHP version, 4.2.2, which incorporates a fix for the vulnerability. All users of affected PHP versions are encouraged to upgrade to this latest version. The downloads web site at http://www.php.net/downloads.php has the new 4.2.2 source tarballs, Windows binaries and source patches from 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 available for download. Workaround If the PHP applications on an affected web server do not rely on HTTP POST input from user agents, it is often possible to deny POST requests on the web server. In the Apache web server, for example, this is possible with the following code included in the main configuration file or a top-level .htaccess file: Limit POST Order deny,allow Deny from all /Limit Note that an existing configuration and/or .htaccess file may have parameters contradicting the example given above.

[PHP] Problems Retrieving Session Variables on 2nd submit.
Hello folks,
I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this before. I'm trying to
get sessions working for a small utility site I've developed. I'm
using PHP Vers 4.0.2 (I know its an oldie but I don't know how to
update it without crashing my entire server) on a Cobalt RAQ3 (RedHat
Linux).
The url (if you're curious) is http://www.amazon-networks.com/bms
The steps:
1. Someone goes to the homepage selects a name from the drop-down
and hits 'Submit'.
2. The form on the homepage calls my main script (decide.php).
3. The decide.php script generates an instructions page and places
the person's $name and $department on the generated page (This Works).
4. Once the person reads the instructions they are told to hit the
'Proceed' button and when they click 'Proceed,'this action (again)
calls the decide.php page (the very same script that created
this page).
5. What happens next is another page is created by the decide.php script
and displayed but the $name and $department fields have now lost their
value (even though they worked in Step #3 above).
If this is confusing you can see how it works at:
http://www.amazon-networks.com/bms
Below is how the decide.php script registers the variables.
?
session_start();
// Below I'm setting up the Date and Expiration variables.
// Below I'm setting up the Date and Expiration variables.
// Below I'm setting up the Date and Expiration variables.
$expire = date(D, d M Y, mktime(0,0,0,date(n),date(d)+14,date(Y)));
$date = date(D, d M Y, mktime(0,0,0,date(n),date(d),date(Y)));
header (Expires: .$expire. 05:00:00 GMT);
//header (Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 2010 05:00:00 GMT);
// Below I'm registering all of the varibles that I will use for
this application.
// Below I'm registering all of the varibles that I will use for
this application.
// Below I'm registering all of the varibles that I will use for

if (!$phpsessid)
{
session_register($employee);
session_register($employee_f_name);
session_register($employee_l_name);
session_register($employee_full_name);
session_register($department);
session_register($date);
session_register($expire);
session_register($col1);
session_register($col2);

session_register($col4);

session_register($col6);

session_register($row2);
session_register($row3);
session_register($row4);

session_register($row6);
session_register($row_1_title);
session_register($row_2_title);
session_register($row_3_title);
session_register($row_4_title);
session_register($row_5_title);
session_register($row_6_title);
session_register($where_from);
}
?
Any suggestions anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated.

[delete some flaming] Hehe, and I thought I had to go to USENET to see a flamewar. This is great, a flamewar delivered directly to my mailbox, it doesn't get better... Let me put my $0.02 in. Security holes happen, no matter what software you use. PHP and open source in general, unlike M$, does not have a new vius of the week, or security hole of the month. Their recent couple of announcements is bad luck, not bad design/development and I still happily stand by the PHP guys. I think PHP users should also be grateful that the PHP guys have said there is a need to upgrade to fix this hole, rahter than just put out a new release and hope most people see it and think great, a new version, I will upgrade. As for the the implied terrible difficulty of upgrading, on my Linux systems it was tragically complicated - I chose to patch my 4.2.1 source, then recompile, install and restart apache: patch -p0 php-4.2.1-to-4.2.2.patch cd php-4.2.1 ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-ldap make make install /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl restart Yes, with a script like this, it is terribly complicated. This whole process took less than 5 minutes. I had to do it on three machines, and there were no problems to be seen. If you are going to wine about having to upgrade software because of security holes, get off the net, it would be easier and take much less precious time. That's my $0.02 (or in my case 0.02 Euro). Now I will go back to trying to work out my ldap problems. Ian -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] MySQL - PHP combined log
The easiest way to do this would be to write a wrapper function to

query and returns the result set.
function my_mysql_query($query)
{
//assuming file would already be open...
global $fp;
$return = mysql_query($query);
$error = mysql_error();
fwrite($fp,info you want to save);

If your application relies on register_globals being ON, you should explicitly set it to on in your php.ini file.

RE: [PHP] What does register_globals do?
From: Matt Babineau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 3:59 PM Subject: [PHP] What does register_globals do? I have never had a clear understanding about what this does, the php.ini has an explanation but being newer to PHP I don't understand it very well. Could someone prodive a human explanation about what register_globals does and why it is so important? Register globals makes it *really* easy to code in php. It's what takes the uri or posted form data, and turns them into global variables in your script. So if a url looked like: http://www.fakename.com/index.php?target=help and with register-globals on, php will create a variable, $target, which has the value 'help' in it. It's very useful and friendly but, if you don't initialize your variables then some non-so-nice person could initialize them for you by passing them on the uri/post/cookie/etc so that your code no longer works as expected. You're safe with it on if you always initialize variables, and set error_reporting to E_ALL while testing so you catch any you might otherwise miss. If you leave it off, you need to use the associative arrays $_POST, $_GET etc. The above example would be $_GET['target']. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Re: Doing an HTML POST using header()
Forging a POST is a complicated task when compared to its GET cousin, and there is no 'easy' way You must either use CURL, or write your own mini web client...

Re: [PHP] What does register_globals do?
My way of thinking about is: With register_globals ON, all variables defined are available anywhere in the script (with the exception of functions and classes, unless defined otherwise), whereas with register_globals OFF, they are only available through the superglobals for the respective variable types. I'm sure there's a much better way to explain it, but it works for me :o) Martin Clifford Homepage: http://www.completesource.net Developer's Forums: http://www.completesource.net/forums/ Matt Babineau [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/22/02 03:59PM I have never had a clear understanding about what this does, the php.ini has an explanation but being newer to PHP I don't understand it very well.
