I remember a post in this list about IE 6 not sending POST datas some times (when reloading an html form). If you use Mozilla or Firefox, the Livehttpheaders[1] extension can help seeing what html headers are sent/received So you can see if it's browser or server related.

[PHP] need help with $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
Hi all, I am using a Debian server with all stable packages so PHP is version 4.1.2 I was developing a SyncML server and was using $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA as a receiving container for incoming SyncML communication from my Sony Ericsson T-616. Recently finished writing the WBXML convertor and are working with the SyncML engine. Everything was working fine until i wanted to try to update to PHP5, but there aren't any officially unstable/experiment PHP5 from Debian. So i got mine from DotDeb.org. Everything worked but then $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA suddenly is not receiving any data. I recall reading in the PHP manual that $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is disabled, i enabled it by setting always_populate_raw_post_data = On. It did not work, so i removed PHP5 and reinstalled the stable version of PHP which is 4.1.2 $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is still not receiving any data. I looked into PHP 4.1.2's php.ini file and didn't see any parameter setting for always_populate_raw_post_data which is not surprising since the default disable is only active after 4.2.0 I added that line anyway and restarted Apache, still the $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is not working. I know that XML RPC uses this global variable for parsing XML data as well, so it should be empty. Anyone know what is going on and how to fix it? It was working fine before i upgraded and then it was just broken after that. Since $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is going to be disabled by default, is there a better variable to be used for receiving communication data? I noticed php://input but that's going to be changed to php://filter, but i have never tried using that before either. So i have no idea how it works. If anyone can help me reactivate $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA or find a better way to grab communication data, please HELP!!

[PHP] using headers to download a file takes too long
Hi, I'm writing a few scripts that allows users to download files, some around 45MB+. The files are stored outside the webroot, for security reasons, so when the user clicks on the link, this called my downloadFile.php script, this script accesses the requested files, using the path relative to the top of the actual file system, then outputs the correct headers for the mimetype and file length (to assist in the download box status time), for small files, then this is really quick and works great, yet for files from say 10MB or more, it takes around a minute before the download box even pops up. I've tried using readfile and fread, to access the files, yet both seem to take the same amount of time, it would seem like they are getting buffered, or maybe read into memory, before they are allowed to be downloaded, basically I'm trying to reproduce the same effect of having the file in the webroot and creating a simple href to the actual file (using this method, would show the location of the files, this is what I'm trying to avoid). Can anyone advise me on what I may be doing wrong, code examples can be supplied if required.

RE: [PHP] Optimizing Tips
There are many things you can do to optimize speed on a website. First of all you need to determine how many concurrent users you can handle on the server you are hosting the website on. You have to take the following into consideration: CPU, Memory, Disks, Network etc. You can gain relatively much performance let's say if you have much disk I/O activity if you switch from IDE to SCSI disks. Let's say you can handle 1500 concurrent users on this server you are running the site on but in fact there are 3000 users trying to access the site at the same time, the requests will then be queued and the site will be experienced as very slow. What you can do here is to add another server and loadbalance the load between the two servers or you can setup a web cache in front of the server to take the initial requests. Also the Internet capacity plays a big part in the overall site performance. You should have a bit more bandwith capacity that your users will use because of the overload in the TCP/IP communication. I hope this can give you a direction in the right way.

[PHP] Re: str_replace() problem in PHP5 - RESOLVED
Curt and Justin, Thanks for the ideas. I resolved this by removing the str_replace() call from within a function that I was calling and running it in-line in the code. Since the html string was less than 500 char it seems unlikely that it was memory but that's also about the only thing that would be different between prod and dev environments so that's the best candidate for causing the problem (php.ini set at default 8M). There were no error messages at all, the script would just end and the logs showed nothing at all, as if it was never even called.

[PHP] Need Some Direction
Hello, I am trying to build up a members only site, but I need some direction. So far I have written a page that will let a user register for access. That script emails me their info so I can validate it, sends them a thankyou email and then sends the data to a temporary MySQL database table. In the email that I get I created two links. One will send the user an acceptance email and put their info in a final database table. The other will send the user a Deny email and will delete their info from the temporary database table. I have also created a login script that will ask for a username and password and verify it with the database. If its all correct then it will redirect you to a restricted page. The direction I need is how do I go about restricting access to the members only pages? I have been reading up on sessions, which I think will be a cool addition to this site, but I still havent found much on restrictin access without a username and password. Currently my login and registration pages are located in the root of the domain. The all the members only pages are in a directory called /members/. Can anyone give me some direction on how I should go about all this. Thanks, Aaron -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: JavaScript Enabled?
Indeed an old thread this one, but I still would like to know if someone have some input on some ways of solving this dilemma. Surely it is easy to detect javascript when its enabled, but what to do when it's not enabled is a much more interesting approach. I have several systems online which (maby from old habits) heavily depends on javascript functionality. Surely I could easily remove all javascript and do all processing and validation serverside, but in my honest opinion I see no practical reason to ignor javascript in any application. The benefits of using java is far greater than the problems. SOLLUTION 1 - DETECTING THE CLIENT I would think that if we set a meta refresh to the noscript.htm and an onload javascript to switch to script.htm we could from theese pages set some session variables if the user has script or not. However this redirecting of pages is kinda silly I think, and I would like to think that there are other ways of doing this? Let us not forget that search engines would just love this sollution on our frontpage... Surely we could add this code and refresh the same page with ?jave=false or ?java=true, but for some reason I dont like this sollution. Meta refresh is bad. ALTERNATIVE SOLLUTION - POSSIBLE? Hoping someone has already solved this Im throwing some thoughts here. Since I use the session variable on all my pages, I could also create a fake gif spacer from a php script (eg. spacer.gif.php, which eventually spits out the gif but lets me do some stuff meanwhile at first). This gif could be called from javascript document write. A 1x1 spacer, which if I call this gif would mean that javascript would work, and if this script is triggered I could update the session with eg. script=true; Which would make me know if the user has it enabled or not? Atleast this sounds logical in my head, aslong as I dont need to alert the user at once if hes got enabled java or not. This approach would mean that I can alert the user with whatever HTML code from PHP I would want after eg. 3 pageviews, since he would surely have the triggered the dopcument.write by then. (Ofcourse if he has deactivated images aswell we have problems but hey... ) Alot of nothing here really, but maby someone have some thoughts on the matter. -- Kim Steinhaug - There are 10 types of people when it comes to binary numbers: those who understand them, and those who don't. - www.steinhaug.com - www.easywebshop.no - www.easycms.no www.webkitpro.com - Richard Davey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all, Can anyone suggest a suitable means for detecting if a client browser has JavaScript enabled or not?

Re: [PHP] Optimizing Tips
All things being equal as your test environment (i.e. hardware, load), the big difference is latency on the network. You may have designed your application to echo code to the client as you create it. This may cause lots of small network packets which will slow things down considerably. You should build your web page and then send it all at once, either through output buffering or by storing everything in a variable and echoing the variable at the end. This also allows you to take advantage of compression available in the HTTP 1.1 spec. Try and get you code so that a single line delivers the whole page to the client. Think of it as someone saying repeat after me. Then they proceed to say one word at a time, waiting for you to say the word before they move onto the next one. There is a lot of latency, pauses between words and response, in that technique.

For that I've applied strip_tags() To apply htmlspecialchars() after that Is done to convert double quotes, and ampersand to html entities. Not appliying it has two efects: Strings with quotes does not show correct in input boxes. Strings with ampersands do not pass the W3C validator. And just to convert lt and gt signs when used alones like ... 5 2. Just that are my reasons to apply both: Security and get a clean string. There's no added security by using strip_tags and you're just removing content that the user wanted to include. I guess it depends upon what this text is. If you apply htmlspecialchars() to a string that contains HTML, Javascript code, etc, the code will not be evaluated, so there is no security risk. I don't know what the purpose of the text your recieving is, but if I entered Use an img tag for that and you stripped out img, it would suck. If you just applied htmlspecialchars(), then when you redisplayed my text, either in regular HTML or in a text box, then you'd see exactly what I entered. The img text would not be evaluated as HTML and no actual image box would be shown. If you can't tell, I _hate_ the strip_tags function as it needlessly removes content and the allowable_tags gives a false sense of security. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Need Some Direction
Aaron, The way to do it is to have an authentication page where users log in. A successful login starts the session, on each subsequent page test for the session and if it is not present, redirect to the login page. This test is just one line at the top of each page you want to protect. This way if someone comes to a members page through something like Google, they will be redirected automatically to the login page.

RE: [PHP] How pass form variable to window.open()
Unless student is set somewhere else that wont work.. you need the form
to submit before the text field 'student' sets a var named student.
One way to do such, without all the window formating is to just submit
the form to the page you want. and target=_new in the form tag.
other than that, you must use javascript to grab the data from the
textfield, then use window.open() ..create a javascript method called
openwin or something that gets called OnClick on your button.
function openWin() {
student = document.Form.Student.value;
win = open('yourpage.html?student=' + student, 'Title',
'width=45,height=34');
win.focus();

Your page is redirecting you over and over again. Your problem is that
you're not checking for https before you redirect! If the user comes
in with the https URL, you're still redirecting them. Try checking the
value of $_SERVER['HTTPS'].

[PHP] Log transaction for audit
Hi, I'm writing an application that requires log every transactions users done, e.g. update which record, delete which record, something like that. I guess one way is whenever I issue a mysql_query(), I also insert this query in whole into another table together with the user name, so I can log and retrieve it out for audit. Will you have that kind of experience? How can I do it comprehensively, e.g. no too big additional coding effort, easy to manage, reliable, etc. I'm using MySQL.

Re: [PHP] need help with $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
* Thus wrote PHPDiscuss - PHP Newsgroups and mailing lists:
I noticed php://input but that's going to be changed to php://filter, but
i have never tried using that before either. So i have no idea how it
works.
The only time php://input will have the data sent from the client
is if php doesn't read in any of the data. You can force php not
to read that by setting the php.ini post_max_size to a small
number.
Then you can simply do something like:
($fp = fopen('php://input', 'r')) or die('cant open input');
while (! feof($fp) ) {
echo fgets($fp);
}
Although a slight hack, it is much more effecient with memory,
expecially if you are expecting lots of data.

[PHP] Re: Browsers on terminal server
Lester Caine wrote: I am using $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] to get address of the browser accessing the system and then using gethostbyaddr() to get the machine name. This worked great until I came to a site using M$ Terminal Server to provide the terminals. We still need to know what machine we are talking to, so we can identify the room, and flag the correct set of displays, but $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] seems to be giving only the IP address of the TS machine.

Re: [PHP] Why do I keep getting a 501 mail error?
From: Brian Dunning [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Developing on a Windows server to be deployed on Linux. I get SMTP
server response: 501 Bad address syntax. Here's my code:
$mail_from = 'My Name [EMAIL PROTECTED]';
$mail_server = 'mail.servername.com'; // This is hosted externally
ini_set(SMTP, $mail_server);
ini_set(sendmail_from, $mail_from);
$mail_to = $first_name $last_name $email;
mail($mail_to, Here is my subject, Please click this link to
activate your account:\n\n$http_root.owner.php?id=$entry_code, To:
$mail_to\nFrom: $mail_from\nContent-type: text/plain\nMailer:
PHP/.phpversion());
I read about trying \r\n instead of \n in the headers, but it didn't
seem to make any difference, and \n is working on other mail actions on
this same server.
Thanks for any clues... :)
The first step is to see if you can send a mail using a very basic call to
mail(), simply: mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]','subject','message');
If that works, then you can move on by slowly adding the code you have
above.
Why do you have two To: headers? That'll mess things up. remove the one from
the extra headers parameter.

Re: [PHP] Log transaction for audit
From: CHAN YICK WAI [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm writing an application that requires log every transactions users
done,
e.g. update which record, delete which record, something like that.
I guess one way is whenever I issue a mysql_query(), I also insert this
query in whole into another table together with the user name, so I can
log
and retrieve it out for audit.
Will you have that kind of experience? How can I do it comprehensively,
e.g.
no too big additional coding effort, easy to manage, reliable, etc.
Sounds like you just need to write a wrapper for mysql_query() that logs
what's going on.
function my_mysql_query($query)
{
log_query($query);
return mysql_query($query);
}
and use my_mysql_query() everywhere instead of mysql_query.

[PHP] periodic file writing error (fputs)
Hello, I am having a periodic problem that I cannot duplicate and wonder if anyone has suggestions. Once a sale is completed a record is written to a log file on the server. $filename = $dir. /. $logType._.$today..txt; $fp = fopen($filename, a+); fputs($fp, $logEntryStr); fclose($fp); The file is chmoded to 644. About 3 out of 600 times, the log file is not written to. The times of day this happens are not consistent, and as I mentioned, I cannot duplicate it when testing. I initially thought it was some kind of error on the server, but I am beginning to think it is in my code.

True. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Binary_log.html
I assume there's probably some application level information that'd need to
be logged also, that probably isn't contained in the query.

I resolved this by removing the str_replace() call from within a function that I was calling and running it in-line in the code. Since the html string was less than 500 char it seems unlikely that it was memory but that's also about the only thing that would be different between prod and dev environments so that's the best candidate for causing the problem (php.ini set at default 8M). There were no error messages at all, the script would just end and the logs showed nothing at all, as if it was never even called. Jon Bertsch As I said, that sounds like a threading issue.
