I am using MySQL so mysql_pconnect() or mysql_connect() will insert a

Specifying two servers (with the same granted user/pw combo) throws a
syntax error. I have tested and searched, but turned up nothing so far.
This is an experiment, but I can see where the value would be far
ranging for those operating database server farms within their network

If you have attempted this sort of (or would like to) thing I'd like to
hear your thought, caveats, etc.

Hi Jay
We are currently developing an application that will have a set of rules dbs sitting
on a
single server while client data is stored in dbs on different servers (for performance
reasons). We are also faced with the issue of only wanting to keep one copy of the
rules dbs (to ensure consistency and ease of updating) and using these rules in
queries
involving client data - i.e. queries using databases on separate hosts.
I raised this question (either in this list, or PHP-DB, or MySQL..my memory fails me)
and the responses that I got suggested that the only viable option is keeping local
copies of the rules db on each client and keeping these updated via replication.
Currently we are developing on a single server (client and rules) but we are building
the
code so we have yet to sort out the replication but that looms ahead of us.
If there is a way to do what you suggest, I would be glad to hear about it, and if I
could I
would happily assist to the best of my meagre abilities as it would definitely make my
life
simpler.

[PHP] Suexec/SafeMode Hybrid [repost]
So it's, at the time of this writing, 4:12 AM. My apologies for misposting this into a previous thread, previously. I was looking at my webserver configuration. I am in love with Suexec. It's a gift from god for web hosts. Not only does it secure your directories, but as a bonus it forces your users to keep their stuff secure (i.e. by not running scripts in 777 directories, et al). Wonderful stuff. So then I looked at suexec with php, which pretty much breaks embedded php scripts, and requires that most freely available scripts be modified in a now-unfamiliar and non-standard way, i.e. sticking a php shebang in the scripts. As a bonus, it's slower. So then I found suPHP, and while it looked interesting at first, as it comes with an apache module, and a suid program, I thought it was exactly what I needed. Nope, it still runs in CGI mode. I think there's a couple benefits, but I still think that if PHP had always been a CGI, it would have NEVER gained the popularity it has. So then I had a thought. What about a stub program, similar to suexec, that instead of running all the php scripts and the php CGI binary, merely handles all the file operations that php would. Ideally it would speak to the httpd via pipes or something. This would be similar to the way safe mode presently operates (as in, it would do the same permissions checks on file reads for UID and GID, except that it would, at least for file writes (and optionally, for reads), fork a quick process that handled the file operations. Also, it could possibly do more than UID/GID checks, and actually check permissions, ala suexec. Am I making no sense here? Or is this actually doable? I tend to think if it WAS feasible some other company would have done it and would be selling it now, but in simple terms, I'd love to know why it CAN'T be done. I've thought about the fact that you're still slowed down by the forking of a separate process, but I'd much rather fork only on file writes, while things like SQL-based message boards getting thousands of hits a day still run at full-speed. This would also solve the biggest bane of my existence, the fact that I can't find a half-decent way of making it so that users can't read each others' MySQL login info, usually sitting in the config.php of some script. This would solve that too. (Safe mode would solve it, but safe mode is known for breaking too much else.) Am I insane? If so, please tell me why. How much would I have to donate to the apache foundation to get this feature written if it is feasible? :) -Dan Mahoney -- Goodbye my peoples. I'll miss each one of you.

From: Aaron Wolski [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /services/webpages/a/t/somedomain.com/secure/Store/index.php on line 140 The line of code is this: $paging-query(SELECT * FROM ProductTable); At the top of the page I have this: require(../paging_class.php); I can post the paging_class.php file if anyone needs but it hasn't changed from when I used it on another site.

Re: [PHP] POST_QUERY STRING without letting php to parse it.
I want to get the POSTED data as it is without letting php to parse it. You may be thinking of $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA. You should set the always_populate_raw_post_data config option someplace if you want to use it reliably, though.

[PHP] multibyte/multilingual support
We have a CMS which is written is based on php mysql. Recently we received a request to support multiple languages so that sites in that particular laguage can be created. I did some search on the google and it seems I have to build in multibyte support for php and mysql. Mbstring (http://us3.php.net/mbstring) claims to support multiple languages with a caution saying it might not work properly. After further research it seems unicode might be the way to go, since unicode can represents all characters (in all languages) with integers, which in turn can be handled in php as it has excellent integer support. But again since all the data is store in mysql we need unicode support for mysql too and it has 2 formats (http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Charset-Unicode.html) usc-2 (for storing data) and utf-8 (for encoding). Finally, we decide to stick with utf-8 as it could support more languages than usc-2 and also since php has utf-8 support. Our application evolved over time and it was not very long ago that we introduced a new DB layer. Even though efforts were made to change code to use this new DB layer, I am afraid there still might be instances where we use the php mysql functions to access db. We use egexes heavily and do a lot of text manipulation, so that rules out any chance of being closer to utf-8. So I am wondering if there are any good approaches to this issue i.e. modify the existing application code minimally to handle utf-8 (that doesn't sound right!) and make it all transparent to the presentation layer. Any suggestions or comments are welcome. Turi http://aijalon.net -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It takes a lot more of users to tamper with POST data than with GET data. However you can never trust anything coming over the net and there are ways to fake POST data. In the post-form page check whether the referer is from your own site, that will also make it a lot harder.

[PHP] Sorting data into columns vertically
[ Please copy me off list. ]
Say I have 7 items of data and I wish to sort them into 3 columns in a HTML
table. The items are unevenly sized, so rather than print them out in rows -
resulting in lots of wasteful whitespace - I would like to output them in
vertical order. However if I use the modulus operator to check for when to
break into a new column...
foreach ($items as $item) {
$counter++;
if ( ($counter % $columns) == 0) {
print /tdtd;
}
}
...the output will be something like this...
+---+---+---+
| Item1 | Item4 | Item7 |
| Item2 | Item5 | |
| Item3 | Item6 | |
+---+
...when what I'm really looking for is this...
+---+---+---+
| Item1 | Item4 | Item6 |
| Item2 | Item5 | Item7 |
| Item3 | | |
+---+
Obviously if the number of items and columns are static, I have no problem,
but how do I get a layout that appeals to people and not computers if
they're dynamic? This has me befuddled, I'm wondering is there an algorithm
for doing it or is it effectively a Turing Test.
Thanks,

Re: [PHP] Max GET size?
--- James E Hicks III [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've seen the post_max_size in the php.ini. Is there a corresponding get_max_size? I couldn't find anything about this anywhere in the php.ini or apache.conf. I want to send a lot of information via header(Location: http//server.com/program.php?val[]=1) Is there any limit on size of GET method? I assume you mean to ask whether there is a limit on the size of the URL, and the answer is yes. However, this depends entirely on the Web server and Web browser involved in a particular transaction. It is not something that is defined in the specification. For example, if your Web server can handle URLs up to 2048 characters in length, and a user's Web browser can only handle URLs up to 256 characters in length, that particular user will have trouble when you use URLs over 256 characters, while other users may be fine. As far as recommendations, I can't recall where I read this (I believe it was on the W3C Web site somewhere), but you can follow these rough guidelines: 256 is very reliably handled by practically every Web agent = 1024 is reliably handled by most modern Web agents 1024 is not generally recommended Of course, the total length of the URL is greater than the query string alone, so you'll have to keep that in mind if you're splitting hairs.

If by after a page is submitted you mean after a page is requested, then you can already be assured that the user cannot tamper with data. Now, don't be mislead by this, but all it means is that if you have code such as: ? $foo = 'bar'; echo $foo; ? Then, regardless of whether register_globals is enabled or what the user may do, you can feel comfortable that this script will output bar. Once your script begins execution, the user's request has been received, and the user cannot take any further action that will manipulate data. Of course, the user can try again on the next request. I noticed when I use the hidden html input tag with hidden data in it then when I click the submit button to submit the webpage, the hidden data then show up in the URL address. This happens when you specify a method of GET, do not specify a method, or specify an invalid method (neither POST nor GET). I noticed one problem, I can changed the value in the URL toolbar of the web-browser and get different result on the webpage. Yes, but both GET and POST are sent by the user. Surely you wouldn't trust POST data any more than you would GET. So, is there a way to keep that $_REQUEST[], $_GET[] data unchanged? Does this require the php.ini configuration or what? Absolutely not. This requires that you validate all data from the client. This means GET data, POST data (which may include file uploads), and cookies are potentially dangerous. Hope that helps.

[PHP] Re: Sorting data into columns vertically
$l_iSecond = ($l_iMod 2 ? $l_iHigh - $l_iMod : $l_iHigh);
This should actually be:
$l_iSecond = ($l_iMod == 1 ? $l_iHigh - $l_iMod : $l_iHigh);
but it works both ways.

[PHP] Re: Sorting data into columns vertically
Well you didn't say you wanted a dynamic number of columns...
What's the problem with the solution 102, 101, 101? That's the count of the
elements in each column -- you said in a 7 member array, you wanted 3 items
in the first column, and two in the other two columns. That's 3, 2, 2,
which the code will give you. If you want, echo the other variables and it
will make more sense.

[PHP] Redirecting and get length problems
In this application I am working on, if there is a problem with the data, I use a redirect to go back to the form and send the data with an error message in a get. That way the user doesn't need to retype everything. Most errors can be caught with java script before they post the form but not all. 3 of the fields in this form are to store various URL's so if they are long URL's it is easy to see how I could go over the limit of the max url length. So my question is what is the best alternative? Is there a way to redirect and use a post instead of a get to send the data? The only other Idea I have is to put the information in a temporary table and just send a get with the key for the record in the table.

I get:
Your columns are: 102, 101, 101
???
The other problem with this solution is that it's for a static number of
columns, however I'm looking for a solution with dynamic variables. For
example, I might want 4 columns with 100 items, or six columns with 15.
Thanks for trying though.

RE: [PHP] Re: Sorting data into columns vertically
given: $num_cols and $num_items
$num_with_extra = $num_items % $num_cols;
$num_per_col = floor($num_items / $num_cols);
the first $num_with_extra columns has $num_per_col+1 items in it
and the rest have $num_per_col items in it
(not tested in code, but looks okay in theory...)

Well you didn't say you wanted a dynamic number of columns...
What's the problem with the solution 102, 101, 101? That's
the count of the
elements in each column -- you said in a 7 member array, you
wanted 3 items
in the first column, and two in the other two columns.
That's 3, 2, 2,
which the code will give you. If you want, echo the other
variables and it
will make more sense.

[PHP] Re: Is there a way to protect PHP's $_POST, $_GET when user tamper with post string in URL toolbox???
Hi Scott,
You've discovered one of the basic tenets of form security on the web :)
It is crucial that you never trust input from ANY outside source. This
means you should do a couple of things:
1) limit the possible input values
2) validate the data type. If you expect a number, use is_numeric(), or
a regex like ^[0-9]{1,5}$ (1-5 digit integer), and if your data does not
match, stop all processing of the input and raise an error.
3) NEVER execute input from outside sources, instead, use output from
the outside to choose between a controlled, limited number of options
from within the program, leave nothing open-ended.
Don't worry about controlling $_GET, $_REQUEST or $_WHATEVER, just limit
the input you expect, and check to make sure it is within the limits you
set.
Regards,
Greg

Hi!
I wanted to know is is there a way to configure PHP to make it not be
affected when the web user tamper with the values in the post string after a
webpage is submitted or something. (Further explanation below)
I noticed when I use the hidden html input tag with hidden data in it
then when I click the submit button to submit the webpage, the hidden data
then show up in the URL address. Fine, no problem. But I noticed one
problem, I can changed the value in the URL toolbar of the web-browser and
get different result on the webpage. I know it is where $_REQUEST[],
$_GET, etc. come into play. So, is there a way to keep that $_REQUEST[],
$_GET[] data unchanged? Does this require the php.ini configuration or
what?
Thanks,

Is this a one time thing that you need to do or is it continuous? If it's a one time thing, why not just dump one database and import it into the other? If continuous, why not enable replication? You could also use the REPLACE() query, which will UPDATE if the row exists and INSERT if it doesn't. Also, if you remove your indexes while you INSERT a bunch of data and then rebuild them afterwards, it'll be faster. -- ---John Holmes...

Re: [PHP] Redirecting and get length problems
Chris W wrote: In this application I am working on, if there is a problem with the data, I use a redirect to go back to the form and send the data with an error message in a get. That way the user doesn't need to retype everything. Most errors can be caught with java script before they post the form but not all. 3 of the fields in this form are to store various URL's so if they are long URL's it is easy to see how I could go over the limit of the max url length. So my question is what is the best alternative? Is there a way to redirect and use a post instead of a get to send the data? The only other Idea I have is to put the information in a temporary table and just send a get with the key for the record in the table. Easy way is with sessions. Throw $_GET into session and pull it back out on the next page. $_SESSION['get'] = $_GET; $_GET = $_SESSION['get']; As an alternative, how about you rethink the flow of your page? Make the part that displays your form into a function, class, or include file. Then you can just include it wherever you need it, without the need to actually redirect back to another page. -- ---John Holmes...

You are overwriting $lines every time you make an assignment. From the
looks of how you create $message, you want $lines to be an array. Try
$lines[] = 'whatever' instead of $lines = 'whatever';
