Thanks for the reply, however, that will not work. The only line breaks you may get with that are those layed out in a text box or from your mail client. What if I have other variables that need to be put in the body of the email. i.e. Age: 16 Height: 168 Weight: 120 etc etc etc. These are variables that the user inputs into a form and need to be on a seperate line, so if I did $message = $age, $weight, $height, etc. they would appear on the same line - I need to have them on separate lines. - Original Message - From: Kyle Gibson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 25, 2002 10:54 PM Subject: [PHP] Re: More mail() questions.

[PHP] Re: Making verification code harder to OCR?
There was a thread about something similar to this on Slashdot oh, at
least a year ago. One technique that was suggested was to draw a
random image on the screen - say, a grid of colored squares, or a set
of different shapes/images - and just direct people to 'pick the blue
square' or 'click on the large house' or something to finish the
registration.
Of course, there are limits here for the color blind or those using
text browsers/screen readers...
As an alternative, if you needed to stick with text fonts, you could
use some unusual-looking ones, like old english, or a 3-d looking
one, perhaps combined with the color technique below.

Use two different shades of one color (ie. blue and somewhat lighter
blue). You may also want to do some tricks with the form of the
characters, so instead having a nice 0 on your screen, you can use
dots to somewhat represent it. (Much like the color-blindness tests
do).

I had this problem when I stored my images on another webserver, and linked the images with the whole adress like img src=http://somewhere/image.gif; I solved the problem by copying the images to the same webserver that views the page.

Imageing a little web-based application for browsing images. Every page is exactly the same (from a php point of view). A user can browse through all the images which are displayed as thumbnails. Normally, everything works fine... But on some browsers (and or operating systems), suddenly, at a certain point, all images are turning white. No more new images are shown. Old images (which have already been shown earlier) are fine, but no new ones. They are just white. Reloading the page or reentering the URL doesn't work. The only thing which does work is shutting down the browser and restarting the whole thing. So, why do some images turn white? These normally happens after about the 6th page of images (12 iamges a page). Any idea?

Hi The problem I am having is as follows: I setup PHP with IIS and it seems to work fine. I am creating a Intranet site and would like to obtain the user logged on to the networks username. I have setup basic auth but when I visit the site it asks me for my username and password before I can get in. Integrated Windows Auth is turned off. When I turn it on and try to login it says login failed. I know that ASP can have a script added to the page to turn pass through auth but I need one for PHP. I am using $HTTP_SERVER_VARS[LOGON_USER] to get the username and it works when I login. I just need to get rid of the login box. Thanks for your help in advance.

//show it to the user and ask if they want to change it

Do you mean that the db-tbl will have a row of data even if the four fields
are empty, or if there is no data (in those fields) will that imply that
there is no row (and thus different code needed)?

[PHP] passing complete URL through php scripts using javascript popup
Gretings:
I am trying to set up a referal script; I want to pass a URL query
string to another php script. I am able to pass the complete query
string with all the variables I want through to the javascript function
call but then the string gets cut in the php script:
in the shopping cart:
a href=javascript: openWin('email.php?ref=?php echo $pageURL;
?')this page/a
where 'ref' is set correctly and $pageURL is returned as
'http://mydomain.com/shop.php?val1=1val2=2val3=3' (this shows up on my
status bar and I can 'echo' it on the shopping cart page - so Iknow it
is getting captured correctly -- also - I removed the javascript and saw
it get passet in the url as a 'get' correctly.)
but in the email script in the popup window I try to display 'ref' and
what I get is:
'http://mydomain.com/shop.php?val1=1' -- everything past the first ''
gets cut off (ie, I lose the 'val2=2val3=3' portion of the query string )
Any ideas? Sorry if this is obvious - pulling an 'all nighter'...
TIA,
Nicole

Re: [PHP] Re: Sorting parsed XML
You don't need to do client-side transformation (although you could check user agent and do it client-side if the browser supports it). You can use Php's XSLT functions see the manual for more info. I was just suggesting this as a potential option. It may not be appropriate in this situation.

The db will include these 4 rows even though they don't store data.
Eventually they will contain data for contact info as soon as the users
log in and it prompts them for it.

Assuming there will be a response from the db-tbl, here is another
choice:
if ( $lineone . $linetwo . $linethree . $linefour )
{
//show it to the user and ask if they want to change it
}
else
{
//prompt for information
}
Do you mean that the db-tbl will have a row of data even if the four
fields
are empty, or if there is no data (in those fields) will that imply that
there is no row (and thus different code needed)?
=dn
All four must be an empty string. I will be pulling the values from a
MySQL database. If these fields are empty I'll be prompting for
information. If any one of them contain anything I'll be showing it to
the user and asking if they want to change it.

is getting captured correctly -- also - I removed the javascript and saw
it get passet in the url as a 'get' correctly.)
but in the email script I try to display 'ref' and what I get is:
'http://mydomain.com/shop.php?val1=1' -- everything past the first ''
gets cut off (ie, I lose the 'val2=2val3=3' portion of the query

Thanks for the reply, however, that will not work. The only line breaks you may get with that are those layed out in a text box or from your mail client. What if I have other variables that need to be put in the body of the email. i.e. Age: 16 Height: 168 Weight: 120 etc etc etc. These are variables that the user inputs into a form and need to be on a seperate line, so if I did $message = $age, $weight, $height, etc. they would appear on the same line - I need to have them on separate lines.

Actually, this expression yields true when $lineone, $linetwo, and

the empty string.
Don't confuse boolean tests with tests for whether a string is empty.
Yes, an empty variable will evaluate as false, but so will a variable

All empty:

Same problem here. Try these conditionals with the following values:
$lineone = 0;
$linetwo = 0;
$linethree = 0;
$linefour = 0;
Something like this will probably work:
$all = $lineone . $linetwo . $linethree . $linefour;
if (empty($all))
{
echo All lines are empty;
}
else
{
echo All lines are not empty;

Also, many multiple page forms like this are for some sort of user registration or similar task where you might want the entire process completed prior to creating a user record. Perhaps he doesn't want to create the record in the database prior to the user finishing all the screens. Sessions are the more straightforward approach to keeping up with data like this. After all, not everything warrants permanent storage, which is why most Web applications generally have two data stores: 1. Permanent user record data store (where you might store username and password, for example) 2.

Also, many multiple page forms like this are for some sort of user registration or similar task where you might want the entire process completed prior to creating a user record. Perhaps he doesn't want to create the record in the database prior to the user finishing all the screens. But even incomplete records can have useful information. What page did the user stop at, for example. Keeping this kind of data in a permanent store has use even beyond the application. Sessions are the more straightforward approach to keeping up with data like this. Perhaps. Depends on what, ultimately, you want to use the data for. After all, not everything warrants permanent storage, which is why most Web applications generally have two data stores: 1. Permanent user record data store (where you might store username and password, for example) 2. Session data store (where you might store whether a user is logged in or keep up with form data from page to page) We always have a permanent store, keeping even the incomplete records. It helps us out in alot of other ways. Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] Re: amp; in Query String
--- Jonathan Rosenberg (Tabby's Place) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In an earlier message, Derick Rethans [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] said Yes it is. Actually, you should specify the URL with the amp; yourself, like this: a HREF=show_pic.php?pic=blahamp;caption=Some+Text otherwise it is not valid HTML. I understand that using '' is technically not correct HTML. Actually, I think he might have meant XHTML. I'm not sure though. If your syntax looks like this: a href=show_pic.php?pic=blahamp;caption=Some+Text Then your Web browser should interpret the amp; as an HTML entity and send a GET request (when you click the link) to: show_pic.php?pic=blahcaption=Some+Text Meaning, if show_pic.php receives $_GET[amp;caption] as someone else mentioned, the browser has failed. But I don't see how changing the '' - 'amp;' solves my problem. I think your intuition has served you well. From your initial description, it sounds like your problm is that you write this: a href=show_pic.php?pic=blahcaption=Some+Text And the browser sends a GET request to: show_pic.php?pic=blahamp;caption=Some+Text If this is true, this seems like an obvious browser bug to me. I agree with the other suggestions to beef up the debugging information you mail yourself, since I'm assuming you can't reproduce this on your own. Look at all of the $_GET variables, the user agent, and anything else you can think of. Oh, I assume your past emails have had timestamps. I would recommend looking through your Web server's access logs, and see if you can locate the request that returned an error. See if the URL being requested has the amp; in it (which it should not). I'm missing something here. If you use 'amp;' to separate arguments on the query string, how do they get separated out for access via $_GET? Because you are writing the amp; in the HTML source code. The browser should interpret this as prior to sending the GET request to the Web server. Hope that helps.

[PHP] spawing new PHP process
I'm interested in spawing a new PHP process -- if that's the correct terminology. The situation is that I've got a very slow loading page, where, for example, I'm using PHP to send, say, 1000 emails. The user clicks submit, and, although PHP is firing out the emails, it appears to the user that page is hanging. I'd like to somehow send that process to the background and let the page load straight-away. In another scripting language I've used, this function was called spawn.

RE: [PHP] Re: Sorting parsed XML
Okay, that's neat and I get what you're saying with xml_process() to
handle this.
From what I'm reading, it would not allow this sort of procedure, but
please let me know otherwise:
==
echo td . $ServerName;
if ($ServerType)
{
echo i( . $ServerType . )/i/td\n;
} else {
echo /td\n;
}
if ($ServerStatus == Down)
{
echo tdi . $ServerStatus . /i/td\n;
} else {
echo td . $ServerPopulation . /td\n;
}
==
So, what would print in the first and 2nd column would depend upon the
results of one of two variables (1st column relies upon if there's a
$ServerType or not, 2nd column relies upon the $ServerStatus not being
Down).
My problem is still my own, I can't get it so that when I parse, the
information is placed into an array that can then be used for sorting.
This would be ideal for me as I plan on reading from more than one .xml
(different structures as well) on the same page if I can get this to
work.
I guess what I'm asking for is a method to parse information into an
array and then sort it by any part of the array. I attempted the
$ServerArray[$this-ServerName][$this-ServerStatus] = $data in the
parse section (where $data = current node value), but it didn't work.
Again, thanks for all your help so far and in advance for any help you
can provide.

Re: [PHP] spawing new PHP process
Assuming you're working on UNIX--you need to use one of the execute functions (search for exec in the manual). You can spawn a separate PHP in the background in a number of way, for example, by using the screen program. If I remember correctly, you can't instantiate it directly and run it in the background because PHP does not close stdout and stderr--but this might have changed and/or I may be mistaken (nothing new there).

[PHP] Re: suEXEC and PHP
Hi, suEXEC will only work if PHP is installed as CGI, not Apache module... Regards, Serge Hi, Apache 1.3.24, PHP 4.2.2 I am running a php script which executes something like system(scp -r -S ssh host1:/home/dir host2:/home); The scp command executes as the apache user, in my case 'nobody'. This does not work, as the ssh authentication is not set up for user 'nobody' nor should it be. Setting a different user, as in scp -r -S ssh myuser@host1:/home/dir myuser@host2:/home deosn't work, ssh still tries to authenticate 'nobody'. First I tried running apache as a different user, 'apache', after setting up the rsa keys etc (ssh stuff) for 'apache'. The authentication then works but there are issues of the 'apache' user having read/write permissions on the directories host1:/home/dir and host2:/home. I thought that giving the 'apache' user permission to read/write these directories wasn't a very good idea. Now I am trying to use the apache suEXEC feature to do this, so that my php script can run as a different user (eg. myuser) who has all the right permissions and ssh configured. However, so far I have been unsccessful and suspect that suEXEC will not work with PHP. Does anyone out there have experience with this?

Have your page before the email's would actually be sent, submit to a page with a frameset, in the bottom frame have a height of 1 pixel so that it's invisible. Then, in your PHP page, add something like: script language=javascript parent.topframe.progress.value = eval(parent.topframe.progress.value)+1; /script Have that print after every iteration of a mail being sent, and ofcourse you would have to create the necessary text boxes on your top frame and everything, but that would make it appear to be working to the user because the count of email's being sent would keep going up till it was done.

Rich, Why don't you create an ssh tunnel between your two boxes and then perform you ftp connection through there? This way, the connection would be secure and you could impersonate whichever user you need to. There is also a secure version of ftp, but I don't think that it can be instantiated directly from PHP, and you would therefore have to run it from a shell, which would give the same problems you have with ssh now.

That's like saying 10% is 10%. 10% of what? The physical size of a pixel varies depending on the device therefore it is not static. You said px is absolute and even tried to quote from the spec albeit there was no such quote at the location you cited. So again, I WILL quote directly from the spec: -- SNIP -- There are two types of length units: relative and absolute. Relative length units specify a length relative to another length property. Style sheets that use relative units will more easily scale from one medium to another (e.g., from a computer display to a laser printer). Relative units are: * em: the 'font-size' of the relevant font * ex: the 'x-height' of the relevant font * px: pixels, relative to the viewing device -- END SNIP -- I'm pretty sure that says px is a relative unit http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/syndata.html#length-units section 4.3.2 In the current versions of IE for Win, using the text size larger smaller or % options in the menus has no effect whatsoever if values like 12px or 12pt are given. Sounds like just one more reason in the long list of reasons not to use MS software. But, you are correct and if this is an issue then it needs to be addresses accordingly. However, if memory serves, the original question was how to get fonts to appear more consistent in size across varying platforms and browsers. Not accessibility issues. I believe I did provide the solution for that. Like I said, try it, then we can debate... ;-) So, I stand partially corrected, the user CAN override ALL font size by digging into the accessibility menus, but I seriously doubt many do. Well, really all you have to do is check the ignore font sizes in the accessibility menu. But again, the fact that IE does not allow resizing sounds more like an IE specific issue (bug if you will) especially since every other browser I know of does allow it. If the latest versions of IE *DO* allow text zooming via the menus, again I stand corrected, but there are millions of web users out there on IE5 and IE6 without text zoom. IMO, specifying a px or pt font size is taking away the users right to choose what font size they prefer to read with, IF they are using IE4/5/6. Well, I guess, but I think MS took that decision away, not the site author. Your always free to use NN, or Mozilla, or Opera. Anyway, besides you mis-quoting the spec I am just arguing for the sake of argument. Accessibility is an issue that should be addressed even if Microsuck can't do it themselves and does not have the insight to make a more user friendly method of controlling font sizes for the end user. But, non of this really has anything to do with the original question. And, it is certainly WAY off topic for the PHP list.

implode() expects an array as the second argument. You're passing a string.

[PHP] re-writing to the same socket
Hi, I have some code that writes data to a socket (works fine) and stores the resource id created in a table with the column defined as varchar (80).

[PHP] Newbie: Can't get my PHP server to work
Hello Everyone: First of all: I've been dealing with PHP for less than 24 hours, so please forgive me if my questions are too basic... I'm using Xitami on a Windows 2000 server. I installed PHP and it seems to be working fine, but then, I tried to add a few file management scripts: PHP Commander - http://szewo.com/php/ and QTO File Manager - http://www.qto.com/fm Both seem to initialize correctly at first, but when I try to use the interface - press buttons to upload files or navigate to subdirectories - nothing happens. I suspect that it is something related to the php server setup; I already tried to change the INI file in my W2000 forder, allowing uploads. My whole objective is to create a public file repository for our company. Please? Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

[PHP] Getting the script path of a commandline script
Anyone know how to get the script path (not the current working directory, but the actual path of the executing script) of a commandline script? I've dug through the docs and can't find this anywhere. None of the typical $_SERVER variables return the script path (although several of them return the filename, hooray for redundancy). The docs say several times that getcwd() will NOT return the path of the executing script, but they don't mention how to get it.

Re: [PHP] re-writing to the same socket
This happens because the Resource ID is a pointer to the socket, not the socket itself. You are storing the value of the resource ID (i.e. '1') in the database. However, when you are pulling it out, you are pulling it out as an int, and not a socket identifier. Keep the socket identifier as a global variable/pointer, or pass it through functions with the arguments.

[PHP] IE Problems: disappearing text with 'Back' button
A few people using IE have complained that when they click the 'Back' button
to edit their registration form, all info is lost and they're presented with
a blank form.
I've read archives on this, and I really don't know what to do. The referring
page starts with
?php session_start() ob_start(); ? and I know the session variables are
passed. The referring page is headered to the check page where users would
click 'Back'
The session variables are there too. Is there some way that I could:
(a) Prevent the 'blank-form-syndrome'
or
(b) Encode the input type=text size=20 name=rfname so that the name is
filled in - I've tried:
input type=text size=20 name=rsname ?php if($_SESSION['rfname'] !=
''){print value='{$_SESSION['rfname']}'';}
but I just get a ? in the value field, not the name.
or
(c) As much as hate to use it, javascript. I've coded everything without it,
so only if I can't accomplish a reasonable approximation of 'Back' in a php
hack.
or
(d)I read in one of the last archived messages about a workaround. After the
user clicks 'Back' and is confronted with a now-virgin form, all they have
to do is click 'Refresh' in IE. Question is, does IE have a 'Refresh' button,
and does this, in fact, work? I have no way of testing this since I only have
Linux running. So, if some kind soul could verify whether this is true, it
would save me a whole pile of coding!
I would be very grateful for any suggestions on to retrieve hyper-lost data
input using php.
