[PHP] php5 call by refference
Hi,
AFAIK, in PHP5 one can't call function with function parameters .
The error is that you only can pass variables by reference.
foo(strlen('aaa'),strlen(''));
Is there some sort of workaround ?

Re: [PHP] mod_rewrite and include paths
I found the source of my mod_rewrite problems. I was doing everything right to start with - The odd behaviour was due to a PHP bug (http:// bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35059) that's fixed in 4.4.2-dev and 5.1.0RC7- dev (I'd assume 5.0.x as well). Recompiling with a new checkout works fine.

Re: [PHP] php5 call by refference
Georgi,
You should assign the output of the functions to variables before the
call and use those variables as the parameters.

which means that you can't use a function call as the argument to a
function that required the argument to be passed by reference, if the
argument is not passed by reference then you can use a function call as
the argument directly.
apart from, atleast, func_get_args() which cannot be used directly as a
function argument for some reason I don't fully understand (has to do
with engine internals I believe)

Is it possible to use the ($test)?$true:$false construction in a (double

many lines like:
$var = first part of string .(($a==$b)?$c:$d). rest of string;

You can call functions like that without problems UNLESS the function
is expecting values by reference, i.e. results are passed back
through the parameters. If you supply a function result, then you may
as well not be calling the function as you'll never be able to get a
result back from it, hence the error message. e.g.
function foo($a, $b) {
$a = $a.$b;
}
If you call this as you asked, where would the result go?
Is there some sort of workaround ?
As was suggested, put your values in variables before calling the
function, though the code example you posted suggests you're trying
to do something odd.

Strange as it may seem, you'll probably find that this is the fastest
method:
'first part of string '.(($a==$b)?$c:$d).' rest of string'
I benchmarked this a while ago and was surprised to find that
multiple concats with single quotes are significantly faster than
interpolation.

One major irritation with it is that with standard error reporting you can't tell where a missing class can't be found from (it is reported as having come from your __autoload function). You need a stack trace to figure out where the original problem occurred - xdebug works a treat (but it won't mix with APC).

First of all, the problem with this arises if your function foo is
defined as
function foo($a,$b) { ... }
There is no problem if a and b are not reference parameters.
So think a second about this: You tell in the definition of foo that you
want to write to the position where a and b are stored. But by calling
the funtion with strlen() you don't have a position in user space
because the results of strlen() are just values which haven't been
explicitly stored.
Now you can decide if you don't write to your parameters a and b. Then
there is no need for call by reference! It is not true that PHP copies
the value and that you save memory by using references! The values of
call-by-value parameters are copied if and only if you WRITE to them!
The Zend Engine 2 is highly optimized for this.
If you want to write to a and/or b then you must supply a storage
container (also called variable *g*). Simplest way of supplying a
temporary container:
foo($t1=strlen('aaa'),$t2=strlen(''));

[PHP] Re: Deployment and maintenance of php software
Andy Pieters schrieb: Is there anyone that can provide a solution to this or suggest another approach to the problem? First of all something about packages: PEAR is coming up with their own format .phar for this. These are tar archives that may contain an additional PHP script that is executed when unpacking the archive. This gives you all the possibilities of other package management systems. If you decide to go for standard package formats: I can't tell you anything about .rpm but I know that it isn't too difficult to build .deb packages. There are good howtos for the debian format. As another approach: How about using Subversion? PHP developers have one advantage: They don't have to compile their code before deployment. So in other words: Deployment is somehow very similar to just getting the source code. Subversion on Apache allows for easy access control. You cann create a deployment branch or even different branches for each of your customers. After you have created some new features in your project you can simply merge the changes to your braches. All the client has to do to fetch this update is one single svn up! OLLi -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

cookies from this domain. I can't verify that he's set it correctly,
but he has been told twice how to do it. I also know his browser must
be saving some cookies, as he is able to login to other sites. Has
anyone run into other sources of cookie-blockage in the past? I
cannot manage to duplicate this when I have IE set to always allow
cookies from this domain.
Thanks for any tips,

Not sure what you mean. I sent him to this script:

I have looked on php.net and there is a way to upload an array of files but one would need to make the name of all the input fields are the same.

I can verify $_REQUEST is correct for me, and I'm sure it's correct for

requires $_REQUEST['page'] to be 1 to even get to that line. If
$_REQUEST['page'] is not set, he should get no output at all.
I've been looking through the comments in the manual, and several people
mention privacy policies creating a problem in IE. My problem is none
of this can be duplicated on my machine (or any other so far), and this
customer is in Florida and I'm in Virginia. I've also never seen in
other applications that a privacy policy truly needed to be sent to
allow a cookie to be set, and apparently the web site manager settings
(where you explicitly allow or block cookies from certain domains)
override all privacy settings in IE anyways. So that seems like a dead end.

If you named the fields like this:
input type=file name=files[file_name_one] /
input type=file name=files[file_name_two] /
input type=file name=files[file_name_three] /
Then did something like (or whatever):
?PHP
foreach ($_FILES[files][error] as $key = $error) {
echo $key.BR;
echo $_FILES[files][tmp_name][$key].BR;
echo $_FILES[files][name][$key].BR;
}
?
Would that do what you need to get done?

How is the data (op=Viewid=1234) separated from the formatting?
There are two ways for retrieving data. The first you have seen is the
tag form, but obviously that's a problem when the data goes into a tag
:) For this there is the embed form (a simple example follows but data
can be retrieved from modules/components in the same way):
a href=page.php?op=Viewid={jinn:echo value={jinn:getValue name=_GET,
path=id}}
Embeds can be nested as can tags. Additionally, embeds can be used
outside of tags, they're just most convenient there.
With respect to forms, InterJinn supplies a form engine that does most
of the rendering, and which can be assigned to slices. Then output is as
simple as:
jinn:render name=someModule selector=formOpen
jinn:render name=someModule selector=country_field/
jinn:render name=someModule selector=formClose
Or if you want to customize the form field but still have the internal
validation semantics:
jinn:render name=someModule selector=formOpen/
input type=text name=country value={jinn:echo value={jinn:getValue
...}} size=20 /
jinn:render name=someModule selector=formClose/
As long as you use the internal form open and close semantics, and use
the same name given to the field internally, you can render the field as
you would in HTML. I generally don't use that method, since I like to
use configuration arrays or properties to determine how the fields look.
Either way, the engine is very flexible and gives the developer lots of
choice in how they go about the display and how much control they give
the designer.
Unfortunately the documentation for the form engine isn't currently up
to date, since I've added less cumbersome techniques for creating forms
than what it currently documents. The faster techniques don't require
working with the objects but rather just define configuration arrays
that then generate everything else.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Cheers,
Rob.

[PHP] Regex for balanced brackets?
I came across this method of matching brackets with regex in .NET
http://puzzleware.net/blogs/archive/2005/08/13/22.aspx
but I am wondering if it is possible to do the same in PHP?
I've tried it a bit but I can't seem to get it to work properly. I'm
just wondering if I am doing something wrong or if it is just not
possible.
Thanks.
here is the code I was playing with:
?php
$pattern = PATTERN
\{
(?
[^{}]+
|
\{ (?PDEPTH)
|
\} (?P-DEPTH)
)*
(?(DEPTH)(?!))
\}
PATTERN;
$subject = SUBJECT
test {
test2 {
test3
}
}
test4
{
}
SUBJECT;
preg_match_all(/$pattern/ix,$subject,$matches);
header(content-type: text/plain; );
var_dump($matches);

Re: [PHP] Decision table/business rule parser?
Mike How about jBPM (http://www.jboss.org/products/jbpm)? I looked at it, briefly, awhile back. May implement it in the next release of my company software. Anyone have any experience with it? There's a wide range of Java solutions: http://www.manageability.org/blog/stuff/rule_engines/view Most of them are over-specified for our relatively modest requirements. Plus, I've never really looked into the practicality of using Java libraries with Php 4. The only practical option I've found is this project: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=117793 ... but it's only got a couple of developers and I'm wary of betting my business on a library like this. Do you know a better way? With our modest needs, I'd much prefer to find a native solution, (if such a thing exists) rather than add a layer of complexity and potential unreliability by inter-operating with the Java VM.

Re: [PHP] Decision table/business rule parser?
I'm not aware of any. I am kind of developing my own for my current Materials System. We purchase aluminum and glass from multiple suppliers. The costing of those materials can vary supplier to supplier. I'm working on an interface that will basically let the Material dept work with a Part Profile (taking specific characteristics specific to a certain set of parts) and create a formula (by supplier) and whatever grouping from the part profile (e.g. the Glass profile has a combo item called Thickness with several options 3MM, 4MM, 5MM... That's probably more than you wanted to know. All that to say, if your requirements are modest it may be worth it to roll your own. With jBPM I hope I'll be able to change routing/approval of electronic documents more easily than it is currently.

[PHP] php 5.1rc6, oci8, and ldap
Greetings,
I am trying to compile PHP 5.1RC6 with support for both ldap and the
oci8 extension (using the Oracle Instant Client). To get this working
under PHP4, I had to modify the Apache (1.3) environment like so:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:${ORACLE_HOME}
LD_PRELOAD=libldap.so.2:libclntsh.so.10.1
Given those settings (and a valid ORACLE_HOME location), the following
code works on a PHP4 build:
$res = ldap_connect(ldaps://$ldapserver);
ldap_bind($res, $bindrdn, $bindpw);
But under PHP5, running that code gives the error:
Warning: ldap_bind() [function.ldap-bind]: Unable to bind to server: Out
of memory in filename on line 3
The oci8 library functions correctly. Does anyone have a working setup
for this, or any thoughts on what else I might try?
Thanks,
-Robert

I put this in a script now to run my chat now with nohup, something like this /* my script to start server */ #!/usr/bin/bash nohup ./server.php of course i have to be in the right directory to do this but it works and finally, i can log off of my account without the server going down yay! matt -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] username format when binding to Active Directory?
Hello,
The following script returns 'LDAP bind failed...'.
?php
echo Connecting ...br /;
$ldaprdn = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$ldappass = jsmithpass;
$ds=ldap_connect(ad.dept.some.edu);
if ($ds) {
echo Binding ...br /;
$r=ldap_bind($ds, $ldaprdn, $ldappass);
if ($r) {
echo LDAP bind successful...br /;
} else {
echo LDAP bind failed...br /;
}
} else {
echo LDAP connection failed...br /;
}
?
If I change $ldaprdn to be CN=John
Smith,OU=Users,OU=DEPT,DC=some,DC=edu, then bind returns 'LDAP bind
successful...'.
However AD supports username to be in [EMAIL PROTECTED] format
because querying from the command line works:
% ldapsearch -h ad.dept.some.edu -s sub -b dc=dept,dc=some,dc=edu -x
-D [EMAIL PROTECTED] -W samaccountname=jsmith
Our AD only allows authenicated bindings. We don't know user's DN
before binding. So anybody know how to make PHP allow
$ldaprdn=[EMAIL PROTECTED]?

[PHP] Including classes
Hi all.
Here's what's going on. I have a page which calls itself in a form.
On this page, I include two classes from other file I've created. On
load, the page reads the class stuff just fine. If I submit the form
(call the page again), then the class doesn't like to show any results.
code
?
require (myclass1.php);
require (myclass2.php);
if ($_POST[submitted]) {
// do stuff which includes the class - this does not work
} else {
// do stuff which includes the class - this works fine
}
?
form action=thispage.php
!-- stuff that uses the class info --
input type=hidden name=submitted value=1 /
/form
/code
Any thoughts on why the class is not working after the submit? I have
tried using coderequire_once (myclass1.php);/code, but that
does not work either. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

I guess you missed the custom tag post I made before:
project:access level=admin
a href=page.php?op=Viewid={jinn:echo value={jinn:getValue name=_GET,
path=id}}
/project:access
project is an arbitrary name generally chosen to reflect a project.
For different projects I usually assign unique tag spaces for any given
project. Often used tags that I share between projects I usually assign
a tag space name of common. And tags that come packaged with interjinn
are assigned the jinn tag space name.
There's other ways too. InterJinn supports if/elseif/else tags for
display logic (such as optional content based on some status). The
custom tag just happens to be very concise and clear which is generally
how I tend to make my templates :)
The templating engine isn't just limited to these types of tags, custom
compilers can choose to extend the base tag or embed classes, or they
can do whatever they want to the content. The tag system just happens to
be what I tied in most closely with the application engine.
Cheers,
Rob.

It appears that the data op=View is embedded in the html data. This seems
strange, because the PHP programmer is the one who needs to set this value,
not the page designer.
You asked for a sample of how to do dynamic link parameters. Dynamic
parameters can come from many sources (_GET, _POST, component, foreach,
etc). I gave you an example of one parameter being dynamic, the first I
left as static since perhaps the page itself determines the value.
InterJinn's TemplateJinn employes a data pull philosophy. Component
developers make available data and templates consume it (reverse of
smart which forces developers to import templates and populate the
template). Generally for simplicity I just set member vars on the
component object. But vars can be set anywhere depending on what is
agreed upon by the developer and the designer. The render tag bypasses
lower level data retrieval and just requests a chunk of output by
selector name.
Also, the jinn:getValue seems a lot like programming -- The id value must
come from a database, based on who is currently logged in. I assume it can
be done, but seems like these queries would get rather complex, as well as
redundant.
Decisions are made in any design. Since InterJinn employs data pull
mechanisms, and modules/components are created to be consumed by
templates, such that designers can import any module they want (and as
many) and just layout the data how they please, it was imperative that
one module's data not stomp on another module's data. In this way the
{getValue} embed drills down into the data structures of an existing
array or object. is this programming? Not really, it's no more
programming than you opening up a dictionary, jumping to the A section,
and then looking for Apple. This is data retrieval.
Seems like you are changing from programming in PHP to
programming in this new jinn language.
TemplateJinn employes very few logic techniques. Business logic is
expected to occur in the modules/components/compilers. I guess in the
above example I could have used the following instead:
a href=page.php?op=Viewid={jinn:render name=someModule, path=id}
But this presumes the id comes from a module. I just showed an example
of retrieving the ID from the GET parameters to the current page
*shrug*. Also, it is true that TemplateJinn introduces new syntax, I
never said it didn't, but I am happy to pay the small price of some new
syntax to increase the readability and brevity of my templates.
The id value must come from a database, based on who is
currently logged in.
As pointed out in a previous post, a developer can wrap such low level
data requests in custom tags. if I want cross site template access to
the currently logged in user's ID then I'd add a custom tag to do the
following:
a href=page.php?op=Viewid={project:user field=id}
I am interested in how this works, but am skeptical.
No problem, the programming in X template instead of programming in
PHP objection is raised often. I've given previous arguments about the
merits of templates and concise data retrieval, display logic versus
business logic, and meta tags versus traditional tags. Everything done
in TemplateJinn can be done in PHP, absolutely since templates compile
to PHP pages, but templates provide a layer between the soup of PHP
necessary to accomplish that, and the designer. Even as a developer I
don't want to engage in the soup necessary to accomplish everything
TemplateJinn now does for me -- unfortunately I maintain some sites that
do employ the soup system.
Cheers,
Rob.

Re: [PHP] Regex for balanced brackets?
I think you are doing it wrong, though reading other people's regex
easily is a skill I lack.
It is however very possible.
The php manual has a section on recursive regex where it explains how to
solve the bracket problem.
http://php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.syntax.php#regexp.reference.recursive
I think of recursive regex as creating goto loops, with all the power
and problems that come with it.
You will also have to enable the multiline flag for your test data.

RE: [PHP] security question... man in the middle attacks
your questions are on point... if you're going to really talk about doing transactions... it appears to me that you really need to solve this. www.passmarksecurity.com claims to have solved this.. although i'm not sure i agree with them.. for one, i can't find a thorough independent analysis, for two, from what i can tell... they rely on the server app getting information from the browser. their approach appears to depend on their belief that the intermediary (fake) app can't be in the middle, therefore they'll only get valid information from the 'real' browser... as far as i can tell, their solution is to look at certain information (mac address/headers/etc...) that they're inclined to believe can't be altered/spoofed. i'm not buying it as far as i can tell... you essentially need multiple information streams on the client(browser) machine coming from the server... in actuality, i can envision the following... master server customer client / \ /\ biz server --- customer browser the customer and the biz server talk to each other the customer client and master server talk to each other the customer client and browser are on the same machine the idea would be for the client app to be abel to 'get/see' the url that the biz server app is sending for return requests. the client app would then go back to the master server to 'determine' if the url/ip address is corect for the given site. this can be accomplished fairly quickly by polling random dns servers at the master level. if the majority of the polled dns servers return the same address as the one from the biz server, we can assume that the biz server is giving the correct url/ip addresses.. this could be done for every request. this kind of approach would be pretty difficult to corrupt, unless the client app where somehow mangled/forged. you could determine if the client was ever screwed with by using an SMS type of system via the cell phone... -bruce -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 8:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP] security question... man in the middle attacks 'man in the middle' relates to any interception/redirection and I see I was looking at it more as a hacker posing as the user interacting with a legitmate site rather than the user interacting with a bogus site. Two sides to a similar coin. real site bogus user - bogus site - real user the session ID issue I was talking about helps prevent a bogus user from posing as a legitimate one because only the real-site and the real-user should know the session ID being used but then again, it could be intercepted. I think there's more to it than I'm explaining, but it's not coming to me right now. My apologies for not being more specific. Definitely check out Chris Shiflett's site: http://shiflett.org/ (I got un-lazy for a moment to look it up).. he might have something in there somewhere. I think what you're talking about is going to be kind of tricky because more so than other security issues, this issue seems more susceptible to measure/countermeasure type things. You could use a secure connection, but what happens if the hacker gets a certificate for their bogus site? What happens if they mask the URL so it appears to be coming from the legitmate site? I'm wondering how often the scenario you're talking about will come into play though. Seems that unless someone hacks your site and puts in some bogus URLs that drag your legit users away from your legit site, the only way someone's going to get lured into this situation is if someone is posting bogus URLs somewhere else.. like on online forums or something saying Come see Bruce's website! and going to a totally different URL posing as yours. In which case you can really only rely on your user's intelligence to NOT fall for it. Anyway, just some things to ponder while you find a real answer. :) I have some experience with security issues, but wouldn't necessarily call myself an 'expert'. Working on it though. -TG = = = Original message = = = i'm not sure i see how this would affect a man in the middle attack... a man in the middle attack, for the purpose of this thread is the insertion of a clone/fake web app between the user's browaser and the original web site... i'm looking for ways/solutions that will prevent a fake/clone site from redirecting the user, or intercepting the user/initial site traffic... original fake user site ---site - browser in this case a fake site could look like the original site, intercepting the communication between the original/user. how can it be detected, can it really be prevented? as far as i can tell, what ever the original might send to the user's browser, can simply be intercepted by the fake site, and in
