Re: [PHP] inserting utf8 from PHP to MySQL makes text unreadable
Dave wrote:
PHP General,
The Situation:
I am creating a form for users to enter text into a MySQL 3.23
database. The text is often in Japanese, encoded in utf-8 format.
The Problem:
When the utf-8 encoded text is inserted into the database, it becomes
random ASCII gibberish.
What I've Tried So Far:
I've noticed that it is possible to save utf-8 encoded text in the
database. When I insert Japanese text into the database using
phpMyAdmin, it stores okay, and I can access the text via PHP for
placement on web pages. So my speculation is that there is something
wrong with my script.
My search on the web for information has turned up indication that it
should be possible to simply store utf-8 text without the need for
modifications. Some places suggest that it might be best to store the
Japanese text as binary. But since I can enter utf-8 text into fields
and store them as text successfully in phpMyAdmin, I am sure there must
be a way for getting around binary storage. I'd like to avoid binary
storage if possible, for a variety of reasons.
The difference between text and binary in mysql is that text column type
takes into account character set for stuff like case insensitive
comparition and the likes. Character set is set per server basis in
mysql 4.1, so if your mysql is set to use iso-8859-1, it's better to
store utf-8 in binary to get rid of the transformations.
The Question:
How can I preserve the text so that it does not become garbled when
written to the database?
For Reference:
Here is the form and the PHP script that it accesses. $showData is
obtained by querying the database and seeing what is already stored there.
The main part is missing here - head section of your page. It must
contain
meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8
else it will default to iso-8859-1.
form enctype=multipart/form-data action= method=POST
pEnglish (256 characters)/p
ptextarea name=introE rows=5 cols=50?php echo
$showData['introE'];?/textarea/p
p(Japanese)(256 Characters)/p
ptextarea name=introJ rows=5 cols=50?php echo
$showData['introJ'];?/textarea/p
Use htmlspecialchars() to display $showData['introJ']
pinput type=submit name=submit value=submit //p
?php
if (isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS['introE']) || isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ']))
{
$updateQuery = UPDATE events SET introE=' . $HTTP_POST_VARS['introE']
. ', introJ=' . $HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ'] . ' WHERE eventid = . $show;
$updateResult = mysql_query($updateQuery);
}
?
/form
Any help much appreciated.

Re: [PHP] file upload error
Thanks for the replies. My manual was out of date, not that it would have made any difference to this anyway as . upload_tmp_dir variable was correctly set in the php.ini file, and I'd restarted the web server several times. It seems however that the file is getting cached somehow, and is not re-read until I restart the entire box. Anyone out there know why this may be, or a slightly better way of getting around it than rebooting? (By the way, the upload functionality is fine after the reboot :)) Ta Tom Marek Kilimajer wrote: Tom wrote: Hi I have a very simple file upload form and script to handle it (copied verbatim from the php manual, except for the file target location and the script name).

[PHP] PHP SOAP Client question
The following wsdl file was provided to me.
http://64.122.63.81:5454/IfxService.wsdl
I first attempted to genrate the PHP classes using the following code...
?php
require_once('SOAP/Client.php');
$wsdl=new SOAP_WSDL('http://64.122.63.81:5454/IfxService.wsdl);
// Look at the generated code...
echo ( $wsdl-generateProxyCode() );

I was expecting this code to generate a code makes use of the underlying
SOAP_Client class - that is I was expecting to see each functions.
But what I found is this:
class WebService_IfxService_IfxService extends SOAP_Client
{
function WebService_IfxService_IfxService()
{
$this-SOAP_Client(http://64.122.63.81:5454/IfxService.asmx;, 0);
}
function IfxRequest($IFX) {
$IFX = new SOAP_Value('{}IFX','',$IFX);
return $this-call(IfxRequest,
$v = array(IFX=$IFX),

'soapaction'='https://www.cashsystemsinc.com/ifx/150/WebService/IfxRequest',
'style'='document',

}

Any Idea what is going on here?

Re: [PHP] Displaying a html line as html
OK...I am close, but still missing something. The string returned by
the function is $page_path and it contains
a href=http://209.204.172.137/casesearch/php/search.php;Home/a-
a href=http://209.204.172.137/casesearch/php/search.php;Search/a
And here is how the function is used:
$page_path = make_page_path($page_string, $fullscriptname);
print($page_path);
It is not printing the string as a link, and
print(' . $page_path . ');
just prints the literal string with apotrophies added. I tried
$page_path = ' . make_page_path($page_string, $fullscriptname) . ';
with the same results.

I'd use localhost but, I need to attach some GET arguments and I can't
figure
out a way to do it. e.g.,
$str=

Put some quotes on that, and http:// on the front, and it should work as-is.
Your own domain not working is a symptom of something else though...
Can you ping restonrunners.org?
What happens if you try to do this in a shell:
telnet restonrunners.org 80
GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: restonrunners.org
Hit 'return' twice after the 'Host:' line.
You should get your homepage.
You may have some firewall mis-configured, or DNS issues, or /etc/hosts
might be messed up or...
Many things *could* be wrong to cause this, but none of them are really
PHP-related.
You are correct, the problem is due to the host switching to load balancing
servers.
Required syntax is now fsockopen(localhost.domain.com, port, time) and
$string= file_get_contents(http://localhost.domain.com/path;).

no its a type declaration (is that the correct term). it states

if $comp is not anj IComp object you get a fatal error.
this only works for classes. and it does not work in conjunction

[PHP] Homebrew fulltext search function (help)
Hello,
I'm trying to make up for the lack full text searching in sqlite by
passing the search off to php with sqlite_create_function. The parsing
part works fine, but I'm a little lost with the scoring, if anyone
perhaps a little better @ math than I am, may be of assistance!
The parsing code below, basically allows you to use a php function
within a sqlite call. This pases matched content to a function, where
the function needs to pass back a score:
sqlite_create_function($sDB, 'fulltext', 'fulltext_step',2);
function fulltext_step($title, $content) {
$words = explode(' ', strtolower('php books'));
$content = explode(' ',strtolower($content));
$content = array_intersect($content,$words);
foreach($content as $wordpos = $word) {
print $wordpos - $wordbr;
}
}
sqlite_create_function($sDB, 'fulltext', 'fulltext_step',1);
$rs = sqlite_query($sDB,select title fulltext(content) score from page
where content like '%php%books%' order by score);
while($data = sqlite_fetch_array($rs)) {
print $data[score] $data[title]br;
}
So basically... the fulltext step builds and array, of how many times a
word is matched, and at what word position (broken into an array for
each word)... eg:
array('php'=2,'php'=30,'php'=55)
array('books'=3,'books'=130);
The word php is at position 2, and the word books is at position 3...
and so on.
What is the best way to return a single score for this page?
It's a bit confusing I suppose, but thanks!
As a side, on a 90meg text table, the parsing function above runs in
about 0.061858177185059 ms... mysql does in about 0.0039310455322266
ms. I'm fine by that.

Re: [PHP] Displaying a html line as html
You are using html entity code for brackets and such. When you use lt;
instead of , the web browser prints it literally as a rather than
interpreting it as an html symbol to mark the start of an anchor (or
whatever). Replace the entity code with their 'regular' equivalents and
you're print problem will go away.

you say the function returns:

will see that the string that is output is:

Marek, Thank you for your advice. I've wrapped my variable like so: htmlspecialchars( $HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ'], ENT_COMPAT, UTF-8) and that seems to have made the variables store and display okay.

Re: [PHP] file upload error
Tom wrote: Thanks for the replies. My manual was out of date, not that it would have made any difference to this anyway as . upload_tmp_dir variable was correctly set in the php.ini file, and I'd restarted the web server several times. It seems however that the file is getting cached somehow, and is not re-read until I restart the entire box. Anyone out there know why this may be, or a slightly better way of getting around it than rebooting? (By the way, the upload functionality is fine after the reboot :)) Several possibilities here... First, you can ERADICATE the idea that the file was getting cached, at least by Apache or PHP. Maybe you've got something really funky in your file-system to cache it, but that's also incredibly unlikely. On to the possible scenarios: 1. You only *THOUGHT* you re-started Apache, but the script you use to stop/start Apache, or Apache itself, failed to inform you that it didn't stop and then start correctly. 2. You *DID* re-start Apache, but the script you used is telling Apache to read a DIFFERENT httpd.conf from the one that gets read by your boot processing script (/etc/rc.init/[apache|httpd] probably, on Linux). That different httpd.conf, in turn, points to a DIFFERENT php.ini and/or mod_php.so getting loaded, so the php.ini you *thought* was getting re-loaded when you restarted Apache, was not the one really getting loaded. You can easily confirm/deny #2 by looking at ?php phpinfo();? after a re-boot, then re-starting Apache, then looking at ?php phpinfo();? again. The same php.ini file should be listed near the top in both cases, or you'll quickly find out which php.ini file[s] are being read. For #1, you can try your Apache re-start again, and use http://localhost/server-status (or is that server_status) to see Apache's up-time, if you have mod_status installed. Or you could use ps auxwww | grep httpd to see how long Apache has been runing. Or maybe use top to find out if you really really re-started Apache. Hopefully, this is a development machine so you can re-start and re-boot as needed to track down what is or isn't happening. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] best flow for this project
Dustin Krysak wrote: -a user adds their email address, name, etc to a database. -a responder sends an email to them to confirm their email address (within 72 hrs). -upon confirmation of their email address, a script will generate a store coupon with a random coupon id # in the browser (which they can print at that time). Now I guess my question relates more to the email confirmation. How would you go about this? Store it in a database? Every-time the script is run it also checks to see which requests are more than 72 hrs old and removes their request from the database? And those that are confirmed, a flag is added to the database so they are not removed? Just looking more for ideas on the script flow to accomplish this. If you WANT them to get the coupon and carry out the transaction to make the sale, I'd have the response email just go out as part of the registration process using: http://php.net/mail (unless you need *TONS* of email to go out, and should upgrade to SMTP using a class from http://phpclasses.org) If you HOPE they don't turn in the coupon (rebate) you'd want to send it out as late as possible while not violating your 72 hour promise, so you'd use a cron job to do it. To delete records older than 72 hours with no confirmation, I'd just run a cron job. Google for man 5 crontab and cron PHP to learn more about how to work cron and PHP together. If you're on Windows, just substitute scheduled task for cron. Same thing, but MS can't use industry-standard terminology. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I was expecting this code to generate a code makes use of the underlying

It does make use of the underlying SOAP_Client class.
the generated class is a subclass of the SOAP_Client class
a subclass inherited all methods from its superclass, unless these methods
need different functionality in the subclass they are not (should not) be
overloaded (or whatever the correct f** term is in PHPland).
But what I found is this:
class WebService_IfxService_IfxService extends SOAP_Client
^--- the important bit!
it means that WebService_IfxService_IfxService is a SOAP_Client
class and has all the methods available for use that are defined in
the class definition for SOAP_Client.

no its a type declaration (is that the correct term). it states

There is a user contributed note on that page:
Type hinting allows not to specify a required interface to be

not give an error for that.
Is it a bug in php or what is the reason?
I don't even understand what the guy was trying to say in the user

with regard to type hinting with Interfaces - I have no idea offhand,
but by using my hands I found out in about 30 seconds... I wrote the bit of

So when you then base64_encode() it, the extra slashes that are there for MySQL to know what is data rather than syntax are *ALSO* turned into data in your base64-encoded content. Your choices are: Fix the original source code that called *both* addslashes (directory or indirectly through magic quotes) Or, be stuck with bogus data and always have to remember to call http://php.net/stripslashes on it after you base64_decode() it. The first solution is preferrable, but you'll need to: Record the record number where the data is currently bogus. Fix the source to NOT call addslashes + base64_encode Copy out all the bogus records. Call base64_decode/strip_slashes/base64_encode and store that result back in In the short-sighted view, it looks easier to just do the second solution -- but every time you come back to this data, you'll curse yourself for that... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] File upload difference between browsers
I have a problem uploading a file in IE6 or Firefox1.0 but it works fine using Opera7.54. The problem is that I want to ensure that the file being uploaded is a CSV file, so I test the $_FILES['file']['type'] value. In Firefox IE it is returned as application/octet-stream but in Opera it is returned as text/comma-separated-values, the latter being what I would expect. The posting form has: enctype=multipart/form-data Can anyone offer some advice on how I can reliably test for a valid CSV file?

Re: [PHP] stream_set_timeout() mystery
Al wrote: I can't use a bad URL because the fopen fails. Sorry, that was silly of me. I assumed from reading the manual that if I started stream_set_timeout() it would monitor the stream and do something when it reached the timeout, either truncate my data stream or show up as [timed_out] = true. It doesn't appear to do anything. I can set the timeout down to microseconds and/or read a 4mb remote file and nothing appears to happen. The 4mb file is read fully and [timed_out] = never changes for small or large files, microseconds or 600 seconds. I did a function_exists() on stream_set_timeout() and it's fine and I have all errors on and nothing unusual shows up. php version is 4.3.10 But the timeout ONLY happens when the remote server *FAILS* to deliver the data in the time-frame specified. File size is irrelevant, if the connection is good and solid, and the remote server is not busy/interrupted. Setting it to microseconds, and trying to get something over a slow connection would maybe (MAYBE) be a valid test. Or, if you really think a large file will cause the time-out, then use a LARGE file. 4Mb is not a large file. 400Mb is a large file. :-) Or, if you control a development server, connect to your own server and start a big download, and UNPLUG the ethernet cable from the remote server half-way through download. If it still doesn't crap out, then there's something wrong. Actually, it would be very magical, wonderful, and nice if you could make it still work with the cable unplugged :-) My point is that you haven't tested anything if the data comes through all right -- Everything works is not an indication of a problem. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

That only ensures that somebody else can forge the type header being sent
to you.
Anybody with half a clue (okay, a clue and a half) could do that:
telnet example.com 80
POST /your_form.php HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Content-type: text/comma-separated-values
INSERT FAVORITE TROJAN WORM HERE
So it's pretty useless as a security measure...
In Firefox IE it is returned as application/octet-stream but in
Opera it is returned as text/comma-separated-values, the latter
being what I would expect.
Plus, as you have discovered, the browser manufacturers have absolutely no
concept of standards when it comes to setting Content-type: on an
uploaded file.
Can anyone offer some advice on how I can reliably test for a valid CSV
file?
Actually, you're very lucky on this one, in that you can use
http://php.net/fgetcsv on it, repeatedly, and either PHP has an error, or
PHP doesn't, and then you KNOW it parses as a valid CSV file, from
beginning to end.
So, what you *MIGHT* do would be something like this:
?php
.
.
.
flush();
ob_start();
$old_reporting = error_reportin(E_ALL | E_STRICT);
$csv = fopen($_FILES['file']['tmpname']) or print(ERROR: could not open
. $_FILES['file']['tmpname']);
if ($csv){
while (!feof($csv)){
$line = fgetcsv($csv, 100); //Lose the 100 in PHP 5
}
}
$php_output = ob_get_clean();
if (stristr($php_output, 'Error') || stristr($php_output, 'Warning') ||
stristr($php_output, 'Notice')){
//NOT a valid CSV file
}
else{
//CSV file is valid
}
//play nice, and set it back to what it was.
error_reporting($old_reporting);
?
You may not be able to READ $_FILE['file']['tmpname'], so you'd have to
move_uploaded_file() it to a staging area first, and then read that.
You might want to play around with the error_reporting setting a bit, and
a bunch of CSV test files from different sources.
You may want to rule that ANY output (strlen($php_output)) is indicative
of an error, rather than checking for 'Error' 'Warning' 'Notice' as I
did... In fact, that would probably be better.
If the files might be large, you may want to cache the CSV data you read,
and then you can use it later in your script, after you've read the whole
thing in and you know it's kosher... Course, if it's REALLY large, you'll
want to cache that in something like a temp table in MySQL or something,
just so you won't fill up RAM with some monster Array in PHP...
For a small CSV file, it really won't matter that much if you read it
twice -- It will probably be in the File System cache for you anyway,
depending on server load.

I'll bet that if you did: $array['1'] = 'whatever'; it would turn into a struct. The crucial difference being that your KEYS are strings in the ones that get turned into struct. I bet that you only need to set *ONE* array element key to a string if you can't change all of them: ?php //Force string key so XML uses struct, not array: $array['1'] = $array[1]; unset($array[1]); ?

Re: [PHP] Switch Form

Now, in page.php is possible to do a switch of form name? Something like
this :
Switch ($_POST['form'] {
'form1' : ...
'form2' : ...
}
If this is possible,i dont know how to call it, can you help me please?
The NAME attribute on a FORM tag is not sent via HTTP by any browser.
W3C HTML 4.01 spec says it's only there style sheets or scripts but is
only there for compatibility and you should use id attribute -- which is
ALSO not sent by any browser I know of.
Perhaps the spec should read client scripts since clearly these are
useless for server scripts dealing with the submitted form, if you read
the form submission specification.
Assuming you can stay awake enough to read that sucker... :-)
To solve your problem, you'll need to have INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN
NAME=form VALUE=form1 on the first form and use form2 on the second
form.

Re: [PHP] Credit card storing, for processing
HI Richard, thanks for the info. With regard to the setup it will be something more or less like this: I want to generate my own keypair. The private key I keep secure, offline, on the machine that does the admin (charging, refunds etc). The public key is used on the server to encrypt card details the minute they arrive on the server (even using SSL, the data will arrive unencrypted because the web server decrypts it). Encrypted card details are written to file, and moved off the server overnight by a cron job. On the admin machine, offline, the details get decrypted when needed to perform transactions, using the private key. The admin box is on ADSL, but behind a firewall with no services or ports open to the internet. I.e it can initiate a connection to the server on the internet, but not the other way around. Does this setup sound secure enough and a solution that can work? What kind of encryption should I be using? Point out any areas where you think I might be missing something or going wrong. Thanks in advance. Angelo Richard Lynch [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/31/05 8:37 PM Angelo Zanetti wrote: this might be slightly OT but I know that the list has quite a knowledgable crowd =) So here is my situation: I have a client who I have developed a site for in PHP it provides various models for shares forecasts, the way it works is that people register for free (with their credit card details-https) now if they are not satisfied after a month they must just unsubscribe. If they have not unsubscribed after the first month they become a customer and each month their credit card is charged the relevant amount depending on what they have subscribed for. Now our the complication is as follows: I know that storing client's credit card details online is a big NONO, so we would have to move the credit card details offline when they register. Im not sure how to go about this. Whether to save the details in text files somewhere else on the server or save to text files not on the server but another location. Can anyone recommend/advise the best way to do this, also what type of encryption should I be using for the credit card info? The SIMPLEST way to do this is to charge their credit card with a recurring charge when they sign up, and then just THROW AWAY their credit card number. Your credit card processing vendor then has to remember their credit card number, not you. You'll get a one-time transaction identification from the credit card server that you can use to manage their account -- You can then use THAT one-time transaction number to cancel their account, issue refunds, etc. without remembering their credit card number at all. You MIGHT even be able to set this recurring charge to not start until a month later, so you're all set. Given the sheer number of sites and services that have a free trial period, it's very very very likely that the credit card vendors are already all set up to handle this for you. If not, you can almost for sure set the recurring charge, then reverse out the first month's transaction, leaving the rest intact, so they get their free month. You do *NOT* want to store their credit card info *ANYWHERE* at all, period, if you can avoid it. For sure, you do *NOT* store it in a text file on that server, and probably not even in a text file on some other server. If you absolutely MUST store their credit card info, re-post again, explaning WHY, and you'll get some advice. Be warned that that advice will probably involve buying more computer hardware, and hours and hours of setup, as well as a physically secure location, and an independent audit by a security expert, and ...
