Re: [PHP] Negative Look Ahead Regex - Code Mistake or Bug?
Cameron B. Prince schreef: Hello, I¹ve run into a problem with a regex and need help determining if this is my mistake or a bug. The regex is for inserting a SID into every link in the buffer before it¹s flushed, but only when each link doesn¹t already have a SID. 1. you really shouldn't be stuffing session IDs into URLs (but you may not have that choice) 2. you should let php take care of this by activating the ini setting session.use_trans_sid (but you may have reasons not to) An example of the code is here: $buffer = preg_replace('/http\:\/\/www\.domain\.com([\/\w\.-]*)(?!\?PHPSESSID\=2u0cca ffoh6jaeapkke35qpp87;?)/', 'http://www.domain.com$1?PHPSESSID=t9gksvpdcuobsnqt98qloe6lg4;', $buffer); The code works correctly in most cases except when a SID already exists and there is a path after the .com such as: http://www.domain.com/path1/path2.php?PHPSESSID=2u0ccaffoh6jaeapkke35qpp87; When this URL is processed by the regex, it becomes: http://www.domain.com/path1/path2.ph?PHPSESSID=t9gksvpdcuobsnqt98qloe6lg4;p? PHPSESSID=2u0ccaffoh6jaeapkke35qpp87; So the problem is the regex not only falsely matches, it's inserting the SID in between 2nd and 3rd letters of the extension. You can see the code in action here: http://kottmann.com/test.php The full source for the test code is also available when viewing the source of this page. I've tested this on PHP v5.1.6 and PHP v5.2.6. TIA, Cameron -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] PHP Script/Thread ID thingie
[EMAIL PROTECTED] schreef: I'm logging things with error_log, and would like to be able to sort out one script run from another. So I'm looking for some kind of script id or thread id or PHP script run execution ID type of function. getmypid() just returns the same apache child process ID all the time, so that's not what I want. zend_thread_id() looks useful, but I suspect it's not quite what I'm looking for. But I'd have to re-compile with ZTS and --debug-mode and I don't think the function I'm looking for should require that... Perhaps I've just missed the right function name? Or perhaps this should be a Feature Request? might very well be. I've had thew same annoyance more than once ... my 'solution' was to use a wrapper for error_log() (you do that anyway right ;-) and have it prepend a per-request 'unique' string to each log message (some timestamp/scriptname/random-value mashup) and then output that same per-request 'unique' string at the bottom of each page (so that you can then use that value to grep in the error log) ... not very satisfactory, but it works.

This is something only fraudsters, scammers and cheater would feel the need to say up front. 2) There is absolutely no mention of what company he represents or what type of work they do. Anyone legitimately looking for talent (ie. who is not gonna screw people over) is more likely to provide more details about who they are. Something like we are an outsourcing company looking for top quality talent for occasional sub-contracting would be better, and including a link to their website would be even better.

Error in /var/log/apache2/error.log Exim is a Mail Transfer Agent. It is normally called by Mail User Agents, not directly from a shell command line. Options and/or arguments control what it does when called. For a list of options, see the Exim documentation. Has anybody had this before or could point me into the right direction?

Re: [PHP] File download problem
I had a similar problem with a script I was using to stream video clips to a user from a directory that was not accessible through the web. Turned out I had already sent some HTML content down to the browser without realising it. I'll go out on a limb here and guess that those three bytes you're seeing are always the same three? If so, it's highly likely you are sending some content to the browser ahead of the file, which gets added to the beginning of the file.

Re: [PHP] File download problem
Thanks for the reply. I think I found the problem here: The php file was saved with UTF-8 encoding, and for some unknown reason it was adding the UTF-8 BOM to the output as well. I just saved the PHP file as ANSI, and it worked like a charm. Thank you for all your help :) Stefano Ashley Sheridan wrote: I had a similar problem with a script I was using to stream video clips to a user from a directory that was not accessible through the web.

The files name, type, and size are stored in a MySQL Database. The user need to click on a link, and a PHP script should handle the download of the file. Here is how I organized it: The script gets the ID from the $_GET array, retrieve the name, type, and size from the database, and then it sends the following: [CODE] header(Content-Type: $type); header(Content-Length: . filesize($fileNameWithAbsolutePath)); header(Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary); header(Expires: 0); header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); header(Cache-Control: private); header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\$fileName\); readfile($fileNameWithAbsolutePath) or die(File not found.); [/CODE] This script needs to work with any file type. I checked it and it works fine with PDF, TXT, and MP3 for example, but not with ODT, DOC, or JPG which are corrupted and won't even open. Those are the only files I tried so far. I should add that the connection to the web page is encrypted through SSL. The server (Fedora 9) runs Apache 2.2.9, PHP Version 5.2.6, and MySQL version 5.0.51a.

Re: [PHP] Semi-ADVERT, not really spam, sorry for it
Sorry for the top-post, and please don't be offended by the following... Much as you would probably like to think it's a good business model, bidding low for projects and then expecting other developers to help you for even less is not sustainable. I appreciate your position but you need to understand that freelance PHP developers charge what they do because that's what the market will pay. I've recently taken on 2 PHP contractors and even though there's only 20 GBP difference in their daily rates one is miles better than the other, to the point where I'm having to check everything the slightly cheaper one is doing and I've found a number of killer bugs that would have caused major issues had they gone live. The point I'm making is that you get what you pay for and you're kinda illustrating why. Unfortunately the general market out there doesn't value quality over it works so the gap between the excellent and the downright awful is pretty small. The bottom line is that you shouldn't be taking on work that either you can't do or you can't afford to sub-contract. Appealing to the community for cheap help is just not cricket! You wouldn't go broke on not getting such amounts - every penny counts when you're a freelancer, as does every minute. Some will be able to afford to lose a few dollars here and there due to non- payment, but others (in fact the ones likely to take up your offer if you can find any) probably can't. I hope you take this the way it's intended - as some friendly advice - and not as an attack of any kind. I applaud anyone who's embarking on a freelance career since it's a pretty risky route to take, but you need to approach it in a sustainable way if it's going to be a success. If you can make a success of freelancing you can do very well out of it so I wish you the best of luck. -Stut -- http://stut.net/ On 19 Aug 2008, at 15:17, V S Rawat wrote: On 8/19/2008 4:53 PM India Time, _metastable_ wrote: There are many channels out there that would be beneficial to your goals, e.g. wendo, ogone and the likes.

[PHP] loop weirdness
Hello all! I'm having some weirdness with a loop. I am adding an conditional statement to my script to see if a condition is met before running a loop. All of the code up to this point works great so I have not included it since it is very long and extensive. Basically I have a query that runs and is output to $info. This is where the code below picks up. Whenever I add the if() I only get one result returned. But if I simply delete the if() statement I get all of the rows returned. Is there some weirdness where the closing backet of the if() statement gets interpretted by PHP to be the closing bracket of the while loop? print_r($row); does display all of the results from my query so I know they are in there. So the only thing I could think of is the curly braces being used for the while() before the if() ?php if ($f_date!=) { // Start of IF while ($row = ifx_fetch_row($info)) { // Start of While $case_date = $row['caa61140005']; $case_type = substr($row['caa38840002'], 4); $case_id = $row['caa443400018']; $case_num = TRIM($row['caa44340041']); $case_title = TRIM($row['caa44340002']); $case_category = TRIM($row['caa443400013']); print_r($row); } // End of IF ? tr td width='300' id=?php echo $case_num; ? height='13' align='center' class='tblcell'div align='left' id=?php echo $case_num; ?img src=Images/Next1.gifa href=javascript:caseDetail('?php echo $case_id; ?','?php echo $case_title; ?','?php echo $party_name; ?','?php echo $case_num; ?')?php echo $party_name.br /\n.$case_num; ?/a/div/td /tr ?php } //End of While ?

Re: [PHP] loop weirdness

[PHP] make install doesn't seem to work on downgrade on OS X -- anyone else seen this?
I recently downgraded from a build of 5.3 to 5.2.6 on OS X, and had a bit of time figuring out what was going on when make install didn't seem to actually copy the CLI binary and Apache SO to their target spots. Has anyone else seen this problem? What category would a bug report for this be under? It's a build/install issue, but there's no particular category for these beyond compile issues...

Re: [PHP] Semi-ADVERT, not really spam, sorry for it
On 8/19/2008 8:11 PM India Time, _Stut_ wrote: Sorry for the top-post, and please don't be offended by the following... Much as you would probably like to think it's a good business model, bidding low for projects I would be bidding low? Where did I say that? Currently I am not at all bidding on those projects as I know I wouldn't be able to do them. Once I know that I will get help where I get stuck doing them, I would very much bid. And bid high as well. and then expecting other developers to help you When you say expecting others, it sounds as if I have invoked some 11th commandment that php developers must help me. Nothing like that. It was an offer to help me on email against tiny gesture payments that would at most fetch a glass of beer, just like your friends give you a tiny treat when you help them out in something. for even less again. even less implies that there is some high rate at which a php member would help people, and I am pleading to him to help me at a rate lower than that. Nothing like that. Firstly, there is no rate for helping in this ng. It is all free. Secondly, I don't think anybody here bother to negotiate payments with anyone against help. I thought someone would help me and would get a tiny unasked payment. As I quoted, Java ng is already doing it. May be, php ng would also do it some day. is not sustainable. no problemo. Then I wouldn't be able to do it through php. I would start using java or other languages in which somebody could help me. I appreciate your position but you need to understand that freelance PHP developers charge what they do because that's what the market will pay. They can continue charging that. Where am I coming in picture? I can't afford their rates so I can't use their professional help. If I get help, I would bid against those freelance PHP developers in the same range and market would absorb me also. I've recently taken on 2 PHP contractors and even though there's only 20 GBP difference in their daily rates one is miles better than the other, to the point where I'm having to check everything the slightly cheaper one is doing and I've found a number of killer bugs that would have caused major issues had they gone live. The point I'm making is that you get what you pay for and you're kinda illustrating why. I understand quality. I don't intend to do shabby job for my clients. I need php veterans, that is why I posted this thread here. Unfortunately the general market out there doesn't value quality over it works so the gap between the excellent and the downright awful is pretty small. No, no. Worry not on this account. One can't make-believe in code development. It either runs or doesn't run. Nobody can create a fake code that gives appearance of running and producing output but actually doing nothing really. The bottom line is that you shouldn't be taking on work that either you can't do or you can't afford to sub-contract. Appealing to the community for cheap help is just not cricket! Nobody is appealing. Nobody mentioned cheap rate as if seeking discount. There are freelancer somewhere. Of course, several regulars of this ng must be doing freelancing elsewhere and earning good money. But I am sure that this ng has several veterans who don't do freelancing. They are here helping other just due to their passion for php and due to their helpful nature. If they start freelancing, they would also earn good money, but freelancing needs its own commitments and overheads that they might not feel like bothering about due to their existing commitments. I come handy for them. I chase the projects, I bid, I commit, I interact with clients. The php veteran here wouldn't need to go into all that. but he would just give reply to my one or two emails, may be jot down 5 lines of code and send to me, and he is done. Remaining work is still upon me to finish and to feed to the client. So, the php veteran still has his existing free life, and he just spend 5 minutes for me. I thought that some of you might find it worth giving a thought. You wouldn't go broke on not getting such amounts - every penny counts when you're a freelancer, as does every minute. Some will be able to afford to lose a few dollars here and there due to non- payment, but others (in fact the ones likely to take up your offer if you can find any) probably can't. Tch. I was just telling that even in the worst case when all your fears come true and I run away with your $20, you will still have all you have. The purpose of writing it was not to confess that I would do it, but to say that I wouldn't do it as it would make me loose your further help. I hope you take this the way it's intended - as some friendly advice - and not as an attack of any kind. I applaud anyone who's embarking on a freelance career since it's a pretty risky route to take, but you need to approach it in

'downgrading' is too vague. in the mean time here is what my custom php configure line looks like, it might provide some inspiration: './configure' '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--sysconfdir=/private/etc' '--prefix=/usr/local/php5' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/httpd/bin/apxs' '--with-xsl=/usr' '--with-tidy=/opt/local' '--enable-mbstring' '--with-gd' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-jpeg-dir=/opt/local' '--with-png-dir=/opt/local' '--with-zlib-dir' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-exif' '--with-mcrypt=/opt/local' '--enable-soap' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-mysql-sock=/private/tmp/mysql.sock' '--with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config' '--with-pdo-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config' '--with-freetype-dir=/opt/local' '--with-xpm-dir=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/X11' '--with-ldap' '--with-xmlrpc' '--enable-soap' '--enable-sqlite-utf8' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-sockets' '--with-bz2' '--enable-zip' '--enable-pcntl' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-shmop' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-sysvmsg' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-gettext=/opt/local' '--with-curl' '--with-mcrypt=/opt/local' '--with-interbase=/opt' '--without-iconv' '--enable-cli' '--with-sqlite' '--with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d' -W -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Well php still yells @ me about it, but it does work. In fact someone on this list helped me before, sorry if I can't remember your name who it was :). it's always worthing looking that kind of thing up, people love to see their name in lights you know. on a technical note, it sounds like your script is relying on register_globals being turned on ... this is a bad thing, most notably when your not properly up to speed on the security issues this can bite you in the ass, also register_globals has been depreciated. code that handles form submissions should be doing something like the following to check for and validate input: $selectedStated = isset($_POST['selected_state']) ? intval($_POST['selected_state']) : null ; I encourage you to read up on input validation, etc ... phpsec.org is a good place to start IIRC. But it wasn't writing to the DB and I discovered I had to change the permissions (it was a backup I had restored) and restart mysql.

Re: [PHP] pdo compilation question
Thijs Lensselink schreef: Quoting Tim Rupp [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ... Thanks in advance, Tim you are loading extensions of an older PHP version. Do an ls -als on /usr/local/lib/php. you will find a directory with a higher date. That's your new extension path. Just change the location in the php.ini to reflect the new location. I'd second that, I'd also say that you might consider compiling the extensions in statically and save the hassle of having to load the .so files, if you still don't get anywhere. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] SESSION problem

You've never been able to use numbers as keys at the root level of the $_SESSION array. It's not a bug, it's just the way it is. I've just checked the documentation and can't find an obvious reference to this limitation which is kinda annoying. Well at http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.examples.php there's a big fat Note at the top of the page which includes the following: The keys in the $_SESSION associative array are subject to the same limitations as regular variable names in PHP, i.e. they cannot start with a number and must start with a letter or underscore.. [ -- SNIP -- ] Let me play the age-card -- in every language I've programmed in for the last 43 years an array can have numeric indexes -- except php's SESSION. I wish I understood the reason why it's like this but I've never looked into the session extension in that level of detail, but I doubt such a limitation would exist if there was not a very good reason for it. One word suffices here: register_globals! Or, if that doesn't suffice: if register_globals is turned on, all the $_SESSION entries are automatically registered as global variables -- so any numeric indexes will obviously be invalid and will disappear. For consistency's sake, PHP enforces the restriction even with register_globals off. Cheers!
