Re: [PHP] question about magic_quotes_gpc not adding slashes into $_GET
That is incorrect. There *IS* a setting for another magic_quotes_runtime, which will do addslashes to all data coming FROM the database. That's a particularly silly setting UNLESS your entire application consists of taking date out of one database and shoving it into another database -- which is extremely rare. But, if you *DID* have such an application, and if you *DID* have magic_quotes_runtime turned on, and if you *DID* want to echo something out to see what it was, you'd want to use stripslashes, because magic_quotes_runtime has added slashes to your data on its way OUT of the database. Bottom line: First thing you do is drown all the laywers. SECOND thing you do is turn magic_quotes_gpc *OFF*! And most certainly magic_quotes_runtime should be OFF, as it's just plain silly, really, to ever have it on. On Sat, April 8, 2006 10:03 pm, jonathan wrote: that makes more sense but in that situation, I wouldn't need to stripslashes but most tutorials tell you that you need to stripslashes when echoing the row? it seems like that would be incorrect.

It's my understanding that this should add slashes to something like Joe's so that it's Joe\'s but when I look in the db, it is in there as Joe's. This doesn't seem like it should be the anticipated behavior. It DOES add the slashes to $_GET. But when you put the data *IN* to MySQL, MySQL eats the slashes -- In fact, MySQL *needs* the slashes to distinguish somethings: ' the beginning of a string \' an apostrophe embedded IN a string ' the end of a string. So, in slow-motion: HTTP sends ' PHP Magic Quotes makes it be \' MySQL sees it *INSIDE* a string like 'Joe\'s' MySQL stores this internally: Joe's Is there another setting in either PHP or MySQL that will subsequently strip out slashes from magic_quotes_gpc or override this setting such that the automatic adding of slashes isn't taking place? Just turn Magic Quotes *OFF* and use mysql_real_escape_string For the love of god do *NOT* try to do *both* MagicQuotes and mysql_real_escape_string and then be happy when you've got 'Joe\'s' *inside* your database. That just means you've corrupted your data. TIP: If you find yourself calling http://php.net/stripslashes you almost-for-sure have ended up calling addslashes or some thing similar twice. -- 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 -- 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] Date problems
Timestamps are stored as seconds from a certain date. The base date differ
depending on the platform, Windows use 1/1/1980 the rest 1/1/1970, but still
seconds. 7 days are 7*24*60*60. Just add that much to a timestamp. It
helps having a constant such as:
define ('DAY_IN_SECONDS',86400);

Subject: [PHP] Date problems
Hi,
I am having troubles adding 7 days to the current date. I have been
reading through php.net date() and this is what I have come up with but it
doesn't work
$today = date('m/d/Y');
$nextweek = date('m/d/Y',mktime(date(m), date(d)+7, date(Y)));
if I echo the above variables they are the same? Shouldn't the $nextweek
be different?
Thanks for the help

The problem with doing it this way is that it won't take leap seconds,
leap years and daylight savings into account, so on any of these edge
cases it will appear to be broken. That's why strtotime(+7 days) is
the correct way to do this.

Re: [PHP] Completing forms offline with PHP/MySQL
I haven't thought about this much, but I'd probably create an onSubmit handler, that would hide the form in an iframe, and create a new one. I would then when they are online, submit all the forms. This would require the user to keep the browser window open and at the same page. Alternatively you could have the user allow the script to write files to the local hard disk, and store the form data there.

use curly brackets to help PHP understand what you're after:

[PHP] function by reference
Hi gang:
Not that I have an immediate need for this, but in other languages
one can access a function by reference (in other words, it's address
-- such as call(function address) ).
In php, one can pass a variable by reference by simply using the
ampersand, such a $a.
Is there a similar way to reference a function?
Rob, was kind enough to post the following code, but I was looking
for something where I could store the function's address in a
variable. Something like:
$a = f_a();
And then, where I could use call_user_func($a); (or something
similar) and the function would do it's thing -- anything like that?
Thanks
tedd
--- Rob's suggestion follows.
Like the following?
?php
function f_a()
{
echo 'a';
}
function f_b()
{
echo 'b';
}
function f_c()
{
echo 'c';
}
$map = array
(
'a' = 'f_a',
'b' = 'f_b',
'c' = 'f_c',
);
$map['a']();
$map['b']();
$map['c']();
?

Lisa, -- shameless plug If you want a more traditional shopping cart, you might look into Shop Script (I'm a distributor). I've installed and set-up a few of those.

[PHP] stripping enclosed text from PHP code
Hi,
I am writing on a script that parses a PHP script and finds all function calls
to check, if these functions exist. To do this, I needed a function that would
strip out all text, which is enclosed in apostrophes or quotation marks. This
is somewhat tricky, as the script needs to be aware of what really is an
enclosed text and what is PHP code. Apostrophes in quotation mark enclosed text
should be ignored and quotation marks in apostrophe enclosed text should be
ignored, as well. Similarly, escaped apostrophes in apostrophe enclosed text
and escaped quotation marks in quotation mark enclosed text should be ignored.
The following function uses preg_match to do this job.
?
function stripstrings($text) {
while (preg_match(/^(.*)(?!\\\)('|\)(.*)$/, $text, $matches)) {
$front = $matches[1];
$lim = $matches[2];
$tail = $matches[3];
while (preg_match(/^(.*)(?!\\\)('|\)(.*)$/, $front,
$matches)) {
$front = $matches[1];
$tail = $matches[3] . $lim . $tail;
$lim = $matches[2];
}
if (!preg_match(/^(.*)(?!\\\)$lim(.*)$/, $tail, $matches))
break;
$string = $matches[1];
$tail = $matches[2];
while (preg_match(/^(.*)(?!\\\)$lim(.*)$/, $string,
$matches)) {
$string = $matches[1];
$tail = $matches[2] . $lim . $tail;
}
$text = $front . $tail;
}
return($text);
}
?
I noticed that this function is very slow, in particular because
preg_match(/^(.*)some_string(.*)$/, $text, $matches);
always seems to find the *last* occurrence of some_string and not the *first*
(I would need the first). There is certainly a way to write another version
where one looks at every single character when going through $text, but this
would make the code much more complex.
I wonder, if there is a faster *and* simple way to do the same thing.
Is there btw a script freely available, which can parse PHP code and check for
errors ?
Any help is highly appreciated.

[PHP] Implied permissions
Hey guys... implementing a permission system and just wanted some advice. If i have permission A which has implied permissions B and C How do the permissions relate to each other, for eg if I select permission A to true, that implies that permission B and C must be set to true, but then if I set B to false or C to false, or both does that affect permission A? Assuming that B, and C dont have implied rights you should be able to turn both of them off while leaving A on, but then that breaks the rule for A having implied permissions B and C.

If you don't get an immediate response you don't need to repost your
question.
The data stored in the database is $title, $name, not the filled in
variables. When php prints it out (in this case), it's printing it out
exactly how it came out of the database. No variable substitutions etc
take place unless you tell them to.
I'd suggest using htmlentities / htmlspecialchars to help make sure your
data won't cause issues like XSS.
You could do:
print str_replace(array('$title', '$name'), array($title, $name),
htmlentities($row['template']));

Eval() will operate on $x = 4; just as easily as on Hello $foo. You should not use eval() frivolously because it presents a potential vulnerability in your code. You may wish to ensure that the database text it operates on is first cleansed of any other PHP syntax -- similarly to the way we should all ensure that any incoming data is clean before we process it and incorporate it into our scripts. Here's an example of variaible evaluation: ___ $bar = cat; $foo = Hello \$bar.; echo $foo; RESULT: Hello $bar. By escaping the $, I have made it a literal character in the text, the same as if I'd read Hello $bar from a database. ___ eval(echo \$foo\;); RESULT: Hello cat. This is equivalent to scripting: echo $foo; I'm using eval() to execute the echo command and interpret the PHP variable $foo. ___ eval(\$dog = \$bar;); echo dog = . $dog; RESULT: dog = cat Here I'm using eval() to set one PHP variable equal to another. ___ You can't simply write: eval(\$bar;); or $x = eval($foo); because everything inside the eval() parentheses needs to be a complete PHP statement. The eval() function itself doesn't return the value of an evaluated expression.
