Re: [PHP] mail function and headers
hiChris, i've read several forums where this mail() function from PHP initial package is not so great. Therefore a lot of people use PHPMailer which is more convenient for that purpose...especially more flexible. thanks a lot for your help.

When you are comparing the contents of disk vs. db, you have three possible outcomes: 1) file is listed in db, but not found on disk 2) file is found on disk, but not in db. 3) file is found on disk and in db. I think I'd probably read the directories of where the physical files are located into an array = files_in_disk(), then read in the file list from the database into files_in_db(). Use array_diff() to identify the discrepancies, then sort them out (delete file, add row, delete row). for files_on_disk(), lookup opendir() and readdir(). for files_in_db(), lookup mysql_query() and mysql_fetch_assoc(). Will consume a lot of memory if you've got a lot of files. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: php cron to check and remove files
I handle your object a different and, I believe, a simpler way. Instead of a cronjob, I call a cleanup function whenever a page is opened. Obviously, this approach requires a time overhead and thus is not good for very high volume sites. You can mitigate this drawback by maintaining a simple touch() file that keeps track of the time when your cleanup function is run and insure it only runs once a day, or whatever frequency you need. You can even make the file sticky so it stays in memory to further reduce the overhead.

So what if a malicious user uses a cookie to pretend to be a real user IF before they can get access to sensitive data they have to enter a correct password? Please explain. Certainly. It's not about them getting access to the data in that cookie, it's got more to do with ensuring the cookie contents remain unchanged. While it's true that the remember me cookie could live with not being encrypted I would then need to validate the data it contains. By encrypting it I know that if it decrypts successfully it's exactly what the site put in it at the end of the last request. For some sites this would not be an issue but due to some of the ways we use the data in that cookie I decided the cost of encrypting it against the cost of validating it and the risks involved made encryption the better option.

As I state in the article most of the site is the same for all users whether logged in or not. If the user is logged in then we should a menu in the left column which displays their name. We also pre-fill some forms with their name, email address and phone number. That means that to remove the need to access the DB on every request for logged in users on most of the site we just need to store their name, email address and phone number between requests in a way that doesn't involve the database. That is the problem the technique in the article solves. It's true to say that when the user is in the members area most page requests will need to hit the DB, but as stated that amounts to less than 30% of page views on any given day. The end result is that DB load is now at an acceptable level without compromising the user experience. Hope that makes sense now. If not I'm happy to explain further. -Stut -- http://stut.net/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Because that negates the whole point of doing it which is to reduce database access to the minimum possible. To do house keeping, simply run a routine at some interval to check the sessions' age and remove those that are older than what's wanted. Why put anything client-side that might be a security problem? IMHO the encryption reduces the security risk to a more-than-acceptable level, and it saves a shed load of database calls to the point where most page requests (~70%) don't touch the database at all which is what I was aiming for. -Stut -- http://stut.net/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Windows + php + oracle PL/SQL = ORA-06550
Hello everyone, I just installed Zend Core 2.5.0 (simply apache + php 5) with oracle instant client. I enabled the oracle extension. Everything works ok, but I ran into one strange problem. I can connect to the oracle server without problems, I can also perform SELECTs,INSERTs, etc. The problems start when I try to execute a PL/SQL script. E.g. Lets have these 2 oracle tables. CREATE TABLE TABLE_A ( AIDNUMBER, ADATA VARCHAR2(255 BYTE) ) CREATE TABLE TABLE_B ( BIDNUMBER, AIDNUMBER, BDATA VARCHAR2(255 BYTE) ) INSERT INTO TABLE_A (AID) VALUES (0) INSERT INTO TABLE_B (BID) VALUES (0) lets try to execute very simple PL/SQL DECLARE AAID NUMBER; BEGIN SELECT MAX(AAID)+1 INTO AAID FROM TABLE_A; INSERT INTO TABLE_A ( aid,adata) VALUES ( AAID , 'table_a data'); INSERT INTO TABLE_B ( bid, aid,bdata) VALUES ( (SELECT MAX(bid)+1 FROM TABLE_B) ,AAID , 'table_b data'); END; I can execute this script through TOAD or using simple Java script. But if I try to execute this script using the next php on the Zend Core, I get this warning. Quote: PHP Warning: oci_execute(): ORA-06550: line 1, column 21: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol quot;quot; when expecting one of the following: begin function package pragma procedure subtype type use lt;an identifiergt; lt;a double-quoted delimited-identifiergt; form current cursor in C:\Program Files\Zend\Apache2\htdocs\coreLib\get_event_itm\test.php on line 21 Here is the very simplified code I'm using ?php error_reporting ( E_ALL ); $link = oci_connect(USER,PASSWORD,HOST); $query = DECLARE AAID NUMBER; BEGIN SELECT MAX(AAID)+1 INTO AAID FROM TABLE_A; INSERT INTO TABLE_A ( aid,adata) VALUES ( AAID , 'table_a data'); INSERT INTO TABLE_B ( bid, aid,bdata) VALUES ( (SELECT MAX(bid)+1 FROM TABLE_B) ,AAID , 'table_b data'); END;; $result = oci_parse ( $link, $query ); $status = oci_execute ( $result ); ? Note: When I deployed this script onto the production server, running php5 on RH4, it finnished without problems. To be honest, I don't even have an idea where the problem can be.

Re: [PHP] What's wrong the __autoload()?
Are you talking about Ruby-On-Rails, which is a framework, or about Ruby? Well, to point out my view, I have to admit that PHP is not really good written. In some functions the needle is the first argument, second the haystack and vise-versa in other functions. And talk about OOP with PHP, well, it is -working- but not as like as you know from Java. In Java I can create a type-hinted hash-map in one line, by the type-hint is an interface. Very nice and small code. :) Ruby might also be able to do this. In PHP I have to write a class which does this for me. Well, what I want to say is that you cannot compare PHP with wether RoR nor Java. RoR is a framework, PHP is not.

And not the most successful one, since I've heard people talking like you back in 2005. Ruby on Rails is not new and has not proved anything yet. It's an arrogant language, so much arrogant that its community pretend it can fix the world. Back in 2005 I was very enthusiastic and thought it could have a future, but after confirming what other poster said the RoR community is insane, I didn't give a f... anymore. I believe it will become some piece of *enterprise-class* piece of dust in the best of scenarios. In the meantime, the web moves towards PHP more and more. And if they need a fat cat... they don't use RoR, just the Tom Cat. Look at it this way, in 2001 M$ released the .Net Framework. It's been 7 YEARS since PHP is STILL the leader and will be so for many more years. And .Net has the glorious Visual Studio IDE, compiled code, built-in caching, and idiot-proof tools, and has the BIGGEST software company behind. Do you think that the work of a man can do much more than that? Specially, a man that has the arrogance of a big Co.? In March 2007 David Heinemeier Hansson filed three Rails related trademark applications to the USPTO. These applications regard the phrase RUBY ON RAILS, the word RAILS and the official Rails logo. As a consequence, in the summer of 2007 Hansson denied to Apress the permission to use the Rails logo on the cover of a new Rails book written by some authoritative community members. The episode gave rise to a polite protest in the Rails community. In response to this criticism, Hansson made the following claims: quote I only grant promotional use [of the Rails logo] for products I'm directly involved with. Such as books that I've been part of the development process for or conferences where I have a say in the execution. I would most definitely seek to enforce all the trademarks of Rails /quote Sorry, even if it was the ONE AND ONLY programming language... I will dismiss it until it becomes a business need, as I don't even trust its creator. PHP is easy to deal with, it's free... and IT GETS THE JOB DONE.

Below is the code that is working perfectly except the context that is not displayed: ?php function error_handler($errno, $errstr, $filename, $lineno, $errcontext) { try doing a print_r($errcontext) here and see what you get? maybe the zero index does not exist. $str = ; $str .= brbrERROR Number: . $errno; $str .= brERROR MESSAGE: . $errstr; $str.= brFile: . $filename; $str.= brLine number: . $lineno; $str.= brContext: . $errcontext[0]; echo $str; } echo h1Testing set_error_handler/h1; I have always used error_reporting(E_ALL); instead of this. error_reporting(0); set_error_handler('error_handler'); ini_set('error_reporting', 0); I have never seen the above line before. This and the error_reporting(0) would probably suppress all error messages generated by PHP. Double check these settings and make sure the you can still trigger an error with trigger_error() if you have error_reporting() turned off. //trigger_error(The string for testing the error, E_USER_WARNING); $ourFileName = testFile.txt; $fh = fopen($ourFileName, 'X');// or die(Can't open file); fclose($fh); ?

Re: [PHP] What's wrong the __autoload()?
Oh, I get it. Thank you!

Things that happen without you explicitly causing them (ie require() et al) can lead to confusion. For example a junior developer who doesn't know of its existence and is new to a job is less likely to admit ignorance and ask how a class is being defined when __autoload() is being used. -- Gustavo Narea. http://gustavonarea.net/ Get rid of unethical constraints! - Switch to Freedomware: http://softwareliberty.com/ - Reclaim your culture: http://lifesnotreadonly.net/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Alain Roger wrote: hiChris, i've read several forums where this mail() function from PHP initial package is not so great. mail() works fine. phpmailer (and zendmailer, swiftmailer and other such packages) help you with things like: - sending through an smtp server - putting a multipart email together - adding attachments - embedding images in your email content and a whole bunch of other stuff so you don't have to write the code to do all of that. There's nothing fancy in any of them, and if you don't tell them to send through an smtp server, they use the normal mail() command (in most cases I think anyway). -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

When running this same script through apache however, it works fine without the port directive. However, I get no results when attempting to connect to port 8080. Command line curl works fine too.
