But I'm a self-educated webdeveloper. I just use classes since a couple of years (started PHP in 1999) and hadn't an example how to factor certain solutions for known problems. Nowadays I hear about patterns and deep OOP and design with real architecture in mind. Fine, PHP gets more mature, gets more attention and can fit in an enterprise environment (ducks.;-). But to teach myself software engineering is still a steep curve even if I've done a lot of webprogramming in the past. I can't find the time to study software engineering to a level that is desired these days for webprogramming. I'd love to follow some courses or workshops here and there, but that doesn't compare to 4 years of hardcore computer science. I also see that besides nice OOP etc. there is a need for security expertise, configuration / optimization expertise, Web x.x expertise, database expertise. I think you cannot become a guru at all these fields to a same level even if I want to and probably am able to. What I want to say is, yes classes can take some trouble away, but right now I don't have the complete skills to software engineer the whole shebang over and over. I'd rather have the job done in time than do it the 'professional engineering' way. -- Aschwin Wesselius social What you would like to be done to you, do that to the other /social -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

$test=preg_replace('/\b([^\s]+)ע\b.*/U', '$1א', $test);

The a character (97) is different from the א character (1488).
$a = html_entity_decode('#1488;');
$test=preg_replace('/\b([^\s]+)' . $a . '\b.*/U', '$1A', $test);

No, it doesn't. I've been playing around a bit and learning, and it
looks like it really should work. With English letters it does. But
not with Hebrew. You can see the result and the exact code used

[PHP] Traverse directory - Find empty directory
Hi
I'm using Spl RecursiveDirectoryIterator to traverse a directory and have no
problem with it but now I'm stuck. I only need to display directories with
no files in it.
Can someone help with this?
My current code:
set_time_limit(0);
$files = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new
RecursiveDirectoryIterator('c:\dev'),
RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);
foreach($files as $file) {
if ($files-isDir()) {
echo $file . br/;
}
}
I have
c:\dev
c:\dev\php
c:\dev\php\file1.php
c:\dev\php\file2.php
c:\dev\php\test
c:\dev\php\test\db
I would like to display 'test' because although there is a 'db' folder,
there are no files in c:\dev\php\test
Bets regards,
holo

Not without a lower-level stack trace utility like xdebug, as far

function names of everything in the stack. of course something like xdebug
can take it to a whole new level.
as I know. However, you can slightly modify your code to do this:
?php
function error ($func,$message) {
print The error message is $message;
print The function that called the error was: .$func.\n;
}
function bad_function($param) {
error (__FUNCTION__,This is dumb);
return false;
}
bad_function(blah);
?
I also placed that online in my code library (to which I always

Close, but no cigar. $i should be initialised to strlen($str)-1
otherwise you start one character beyond the end of the string.

Hang on, ignore that. You're including the file, not running it on the
CLI.
What do you mean when you say it doesn't work? Do you mean you get no
output?
I suggest you remove the @ at the start of the include while
developing it. Or alternatively spit something out after you call
ob_end_clean so you know it couldn't include the file.

depended on it. Sometimes it really does scare me!
So my experience is that there are far more web developers out there
than software engineers who do web development, and it's getting
harder
to find decent software engineers to do web-based work at a
reasonable
price. The good ones are rare - so rare in fact that I'm having
trouble
finding one at the moment. If anyone considers themselves a software
engineer rather than a web developer and would like a job in Windsor
drop me a note.
Job! Now!
foreach($array as $k = $v) {
$reversed[$v] = $k;
}
$array = $reversed; //optional
No wait!
Yeah, nice try ;)
Anyways, I assume you're based in the US somewhere so unless you're
considering emigrating to the UK you were never in the running.

Hang on, ignore that. You're including the file, not running it on the CLI.
What do you mean when you say it doesn't work? Do you mean you get no
output?
I mean that the shebang line at the top of the included file is output
to stdout even when I turn on output buffering on prior to including the file.
nothing else is output but that's because the script doesn't generate any
further
output - it logs everything instead - and I know it runs because the relevant
lines
appear in the relevant log file.
I suggest you remove the @ at the start of the include while developing
it. Or alternatively spit something out after you call ob_end_clean so
you know it couldn't include the file.
the @ is niether here nor there with regard to the problem I have, well more
of an annoyance - nobody is going get hurt by some spurious output to stdout but
it looks messy.
just to clarify - I need to be able to run the script directly (as an
executable) and
be able to include it within another script ... so the shebang line is needed
(well I could hack around it with a wrapper script to use directly on the
command line
or run it using /usr/bin/php foo.php ... but I don't find either of those
satisfactory)

I don't know what goes wrong here. I took your script and it just works,
so it is not your code (I guess).
I've done this:
$oldIFvalue = ini_set('implicit_flush', false);
ob_start();
if (!include 'scrap2.php') {
ob_end_clean();
}
else {
$output = explode(\n, ob_get_clean());
if ($output[0] preg_match('%^#!%', $output[0]))
unset($output[0]);
echo implode(\n, $output);
}
ini_set('implicit_flush', $oldIFvalue);
The only difference is it echoes imploded $output. And I do a bit
different preg_match ^#! instead of ^#!\/
If you can include the script you want to include, than it should work.
If you can buffer output without the include file, than it should work.
If you can dump $output after you've done the explode, than it should work.
So, I don't know what goes wrong.

So my experience is that there are far more web developers out there
than software engineers who do web development, and it's getting
harder
to find decent software engineers to do web-based work at a
reasonable
price. The good ones are rare - so rare in fact that I'm having
trouble
finding one at the moment. If anyone considers themselves a software
engineer rather than a web developer and would like a job in Windsor
drop me a note.
Job! Now!
foreach($array as $k = $v) {
$reversed[$v] = $k;
}
$array = $reversed; //optional
No wait!
Yeah, nice try ;)
Anyways, I assume you're based in the US somewhere so unless you're
considering emigrating to the UK you were never in the running.

So in looking, ask how they incorporate css into their program. If they go Huh?, go somewhere else. Actually, you can usually simplify that question by asking them if they use a font tag. If they do, then they're clueless. Oh, when you find something, please let me know.

it's sick, I like it, nice example of streams filtering while your at it.
I learned something! it also works in so far that the shebang line is no longer
output but the output buffering in *my* script(s) doesn't work, whilst the same
construction does work in Stut's test scripts (although whilst playing with
his script I did manage to bork ik so that the output buffering *doesn't* work
there anymore ... how I did that I can't fathom)
anyway - they problem has been nicely shoved under the carpet. apart from
the shebang lines the script don't ever output anything anyway but rather
log to files ... a simple redirect output to /dev/null in the command line
that is used to run the 'master' script will take care of any spurious cruft
ending up on screen.
thanks to everyone for their input regarding my output! :-)

let's learn
about 'by reference' parameters (notice the '' before '$table')

// do you want to stop/catch 're-authentication'?

// escape your data!

$name = mysql_real_escape_string($user);
// only select what you need (no semi-colons [needed] to delimit
the query)
// name + password should be unique! so no real need for the LIMIT
clause
$res = mysql_query(SELECT tableName FROM current WHERE
loginName='{$name}' AND loginPassword='{$pass}' LIMIT 0,1);
// I think a die() is overkill
// rather an abrupt end to the script, such errors can be with more
grace
if (!$res)
die(Wrong data supplied or database error .mysql_error());
// nobody found - bad credentials, authentication failed
if (!mysql_numrows($res))

// grab data
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);

// let's set the 'by reference' variable to the value we found
$table = $row['tableName'];

}
which you would use like so:
$spoon = null;
if (authenticate(Jochem, MySecret, $spoon))
echo authenticated! table is set to $spoon;
else
echo authentication failed, there is no \$spoon;
I think the real question is... why are you using tabs instead of

It's intelligent design on Gmail's part. If you send an email to
a list, Gmail filters the message sent back to you so that it doesn't
appear in your inbox until someone replies to the thread. The
exception is if a bounce is received.

line breaks, like it or not - at least via the web interface.
Write out a simple mail script with complete From: and
X-Mailer: headers. You'll see at least the X-Mailer: line appear
in the message body.

you're able to read it later because you have two return $xxx

As soon as a function reaches a `return` statement, it returns
that data and exits, so the second `return` is never processed.

Can someone tell me why this code works for setting the table name:
dunno. lets rewrite the thing shall we? let cutdown on variable
usage, shorten some
names and use a verb rather than a noun to name the function ...
and let's learn
about 'by reference' parameters (notice the '' before '$table')
function authenticate($user, $pass, $table)
{
// do you want to stop/catch 're-authentication'?
if ($_SESSION['loggedin'])
return;
// escape your data!
$pass =
mysql_real_escape_string(md5(someThingOnlyDanBrownCouldGuess.
$pass));
$name = mysql_real_escape_string($user);
// only select what you need (no semi-colons [needed] to delimit
the query)
// name + password should be unique! so no real need for the LIMIT
clause
$res = mysql_query(SELECT tableName FROM current WHERE
loginName='{$name}' AND loginPassword='{$pass}' LIMIT 0,1);
// I think a die() is overkill
// rather an abrupt end to the script, such errors can be with
more grace
if (!$res)
die(Wrong data supplied or database error .mysql_error());
// nobody found - bad credentials, authentication failed
if (!mysql_numrows($res))
return false;
// grab data
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
// set session data
$_SESSION['user'] = $user;
$_SESSION['loggedin'] = true; // use a BOOLEAN ... because
NO equates to TRUE!
// no idea what this 'table name' is about but ...
// let's set the 'by reference' variable to the value we found
$table = $row['tableName'];
// user authenticated!
return true;
}
which you would use like so:
$spoon = null;
if (authenticate(Jochem, MySecret, $spoon))
echo authenticated! table is set to $spoon;
else
echo authentication failed, there is no \$spoon;
I think the real question is... why are you using tabs instead of
spaces? =D
~Philip
My editor automatically replaces like 4 spaces with a tab... Is there
a reason not to use tabs instead of spaces? :)

I didn't think the original on the Zend-Engine-CVS list was such a
bad post. It's brief, direct, to-the-point, and sounds like an
interesting proposition. However, I'd be inclined to drop everything
and walk out the door the same second, leaving everything I own behind
if an offer like the one you just joked about popped up.

Your escaping should be right before you run the query, not somewhere
else. What if you change something around and take off the escaping
function? Or what if you decide to change your database connection?
Having it all in one spot makes it easier to make changes and know it
isn't going to bust.

I recognize that code, Jason! At least the base of it (and the
comments). ;-P
See in the first block how you're using $_SESSION? That's why
you're able to read it later because you have two return $xxx
lines in each function.
As soon as a function reaches a `return` statement, it returns
that data and exits, so the second `return` is never processed.

Guess all your posts stating to sanitize data just really don't have
an impact, huh? Perhaps you should stop posting code that doesn't
validate/escape as it will be copied and pasted as I've told you
before.
The code for escaping and sanitizing the input is in a different
module of the program. I actually do it right before sending it to my
authentication function. I didn't see the need to post it since it
wasn't related to the problem :)
And the comments were from Mr. Brown who gave me the code originally
that has now been adapted to use in a different program :)

Your escaping should be right before you run the query, not somewhere
else. What if you change something around and take off the escaping
function? Or what if you decide to change your database connection?
Having it all in one spot makes it easier to make changes and know it
isn't going to bust.
It's actually just before I call the function... The database
connection is in a completely separate function from everything that
we have been talking about... And all that's in that file is:
$link= false;
function dbmysqlconnect($server, $username, $password, $database) {
$link = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password, $database) or
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($database) or die('Could not select database: ' .
mysql_error());
return $link;

All my point is that I've been on this list for a while. I've posted
code and watched people just copy and paste it. I've watched other
people copy and paste their examples. I used to say sanitize your
data and watch the same exact thing in their new function coming back
at me without any sanity checks whatsoever.
So my point is that people don't know how to do it. If you decide to
help people out with their issues you need to also help them
understand how to filter/escape their data. Otherwise keep in mind
those people are going to copy your code with the comment saying
sanitize it, and it isn't going to be escaped. Maybe that is okay
with you but I see that as a problem. I know Jason said he is doing
it elsewhere, but that is the rare case.

Right, but my point is that the rules and spirit of the list
apply: we're not going to hold your hand and write your code for you.
If you want to be smart enough to put together a PHP page, you should
be smart enough to at least ask *how* to sanitize the code. I'm not
deliberately setting people up for failure, I'm taking into account
that - while it's not as common as it should be - the poster has
common sense. Quite honestly, we all learned the hard way, I'm sure.
It's what makes us better programmers: experience. If I had asked for
people to write things for me and blindly installed them and ran the
code, I'd never have learned anything. Plus, if you provide
immaculate code, you're potentially taking a chunk of time out of your
day, without pay, so that someone else can potentially (and I'd hazard
a guess at likely) make a few bucks on your work.
So my point is that people don't know how to do it. If you decide to
help people out with their issues you need to also help them
understand how to filter/escape their data. Otherwise keep in mind

sanitize it, and it isn't going to be escaped. Maybe that is okay
with you but I see that as a problem. I know Jason said he is doing
it elsewhere, but that is the rare case.
I agree completely and that's what I do. If I tell someone
that they have to sanitize their code, then I've done my job in that
respect. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever that I should feel
forced or even compelled to take an additional five minutes for a
one-minute post to explain that they should use
mysql_real_escape_string(), run an arrayed regexp for filtration,
and/or escape all single, double, and backtick quotes. When they read
my sanitize input string and ask about it, then I'm more than happy
to help, but presuming someone doesn't know how and writing a
dissertation on input sanity - while it is the safe road - is
redundant and potentially insulting to the person. Especially if it's
someone who's been on the list for a while (as is generally the case
anyway).
Summarizing, I'm not disagreeing by any means that you do have a
valid point; contrarily, I'm absolutely concurring. I'm just stating
that it's not entirely applicable to the posts to which you refer.
There is a time and a place to presume at least a small piece of
intelligence on behalf of the poster.

Jason,
Keep in mind that data validation and escaping are two different
concepts. Data validation should happen as soon as you read the value
from the user to make sure that user names are long enough/not too
long, phone numbers or e-mail addresses contain only valid characters,
etc. That part should definitely be happening outside your function.
However, escaping should really only happen at the point it is needed,
and Dan's comments suggest a very good place for this to happen. (I
often put it even later - directly at the point it gets merged into
the string either through concatenation or through a function like
sprintf.) This is because the escape sequences are not part of the
actual data. Your application may need to use any of several different
character escaping functions (or no escaping at all) on the same value
depending on whether that value is going to a browser, a database, a
socket, an LDAP query, etc. This prevents you from having to write
lines like this:
$user = mysql_real_escape_string(stripslashes($user));
or this:
echo htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($my_text));
(This is one reason magic_quotes is such a Bad Idea[tm].)
[BTW - Who trademarked all these phrases on this list anyway? :-)]
What you have done may work and be quite safe. However, Eric pointed
out some very good reasons to keep the character escaping inside this
function.

Eric,
You do make a valid point about people copy and pasting code, and that
we should all take a bit more care; however we also have to remember
that not all posts are going to newbies, when a solid software
engineer posts a short query on here, I'm sure they don't expect a fully
santised application back, when a short snippet of code would more than
suffice.
One thing I don't understand, why did you go all out and personal on
Dan? I'm not even going to go into it, you were bang out of order order
and you owe the man an apology; no need to explain what you meant, we
all got it the first time. Further, if you felt the need to challenge
somebody or give them advice why do it public?
Hell I'm not even involved and that kind of ill-mannered post even
managed to put me in a bad mood.
