[PHP] Full versus relative URLs

2009-02-16 Thread Paul M Foster

Here's a question related to my last post. When specifying a link in a
HTML file (like to the css or an image file), there are two ways of
doing it. One is to simply include the relative path to the file
(relative to the doc root), like:

/graphics/my_portrait.gif

Or you can include the full URL, like:

http://example.com/graphics/my_portrait.gif

My casual observation seems to indicate that the former will load faster
than the latter. But has anyone done any benchmarking on it?

 Well, I just thought, since the strtotime() uses the current timestamp
 to calculate the new timestamp, if you only give it a time then the
 returned timestamp is today's date with the new time you passed.  If you
 had a large array and the callback started at 23:59:59 then you could
 end up with some times from the date it started and some from the next
 day, which of course would not be sorted correctly with respect to times
 only.  So, this might be better (not tested):

 Your best bet above.

I did a little test, the ultra-fast version offered by McKenzie
is really great as long as your array of time strings aren't ever
going to be longer than say 3-4 items (with the caveat that you
don't use a second argument to strtotime() ... if you do then
even with 3 items it's substantially slower).

for any reasonable number of items my tests show tedd's version
pisses on McKenzies from a great height (note that I actually
optimized Mckenzies variant by halfing the number of calls to
strtotime()).

I added a third variant, as a sort of control, which runs pretty
much on par with tedd's version but uses rather less LOC
(tedd you might like it as a little example of using array_multisort(),
i.e. a way of avoiding writing the double foreach loop in this case)

[PHP] E-Mail Attachment Filename Encoding Problem

2009-02-16 Thread Edmund Hertle

Hey,

my problem is that I send an e-mail with an attachment (pdf file). I get the
filename out of a mysql table. While using echo or downloading the file, the
filename is showed as expected but as an attachment it is not properly
encoded:
Should be: PC-Beschaffung 2008 (nur für Lehre)
Will be: US-ASCII''PC-Beschaffung%202008%20(nur%20f%C3%BCr%20Lehre)

I think I have to encode the file name and already tried utf8encode but this
didn't help.

Re: [PHP] Apache odd behavior

2009-02-16 Thread Stuart

2009/2/16 Paul M Foster pa...@quillandmouse.com:
 I'm submitting a url like this:

 http://mysite.com/index.php/alfa/bravo/charlie/delta

 The index.php calls has code to decode the url segments
 (alfa/bravo/charlie/delta). It determines that the controller is alfa,
 the method is bravo, and converts charlie and delta to $_GET['charlie']
 = 'delta'. It verifies that the controller and method exist, and calls
 the controller and method.

 This works fine. The right controller gets called and the right method,
 and the GET parameter looks like it should. The method sets some
 variables and then calls a render() function to render the page, which
 is in the doc root of the site.

 The page does get rendered, but without the stylesheet, and none of the
 graphics show up. Why? Because, according to the logs, Apache appears to
 be looking for the images and everything else in the directory
 index.php/alfa/bravo/charlie/delta, which of course doesn't exist.

 No, I don't have an .htaccess file with RewriteEngine on. Apache figures
 out that index.php is the file to look for in the original URL, but
 can't figure out that everything else is relative to that file, not the
 entire URL.

 This method is in use in at least one other MVC framework. What am I
 doing wrong?

You need to specify the absolute URL for all assets when using a URL
scheme like this because the browser has no idea that index.php
indicates the current directory so it resolves relative paths using
the full URL.

Why would you want to do such a thing?
If you want parameters in the filename without using get, use 
mod_rewrite and explode the page name - and use a delimiter or than a / 
- IE use an underscore, dash, upper case vs lower, etc to indicate your 
different variables.


/ has a special meaning in a URL string, I don't understand the motive 
of wanting to use it as a delimiter in a filename. That calls all kinds 
of weird issues (like the one you are experiencing, which is because the 
browser has no way to know index.php is a page - and the browser 
resolves relative URL's - that's not an apache issue)

Re: [PHP] Back to Basics - Re: [PHP] Re: for the security minded web developer - secure way to login?

2009-02-16 Thread German Geek

Brilliant. Someone who understood my intentions :) It's not only a good
exercise but also useful. Once done in PHP and various JS frameworks, we
could port it to other languages. Would suggest to support as many as we can
because they all have pros and cons. PHP first tho :) . Maybe just good old
javascript as a start although the frameworks make it a lot easier. Who on
earth has Javascript turned off these days anyway? I don't know anyone who
is that paranoid. Sorry if someone here is but i believe if you are scared
of javascript you might as well not turn on a computer. There are always
going to be security holes.

Good on ya mate. Looks ok as an approach. Didn't look into all the details
though. I would suggest to put it under the MIT License as LGPL and GPL are
kind of restrictive as to the usage. Donations welcome of course :P.

If you want to host/version control the source code somewhere, i can offer a
git repository on my hosting or setup svn for you if you prefer that. Please
no CVS, i hate it. Just let me know if you need it.

I can also help with some development at some stage. I also believe that the
approach that i suggested would actually work well, even with a salt in the
original password hash. Maybe that salt should be hashed with a timestamp or
the same random salt as well lol. Computing a hash is not that expensive but
sending the salt might make it quite insecure because then an attacker knows
it. But i guess the salt's intension is primarily that an attacker cannot
use a pre-computed hash database from dictionaries. So maybe just sending it
is fine.

I might draw some diagrams and put them online somewhere to make it a bit
easier to understand.

Tim

2009/2/16 Rene Veerman rene7...@gmail.com

 Just for this case, where authentication of the server isn't an issue, and
 things like deployment cost are,

 i'd like to propose that we on this list look again at securing login/pass
 through onewayHash functions, in an otherwise non-ssl environment.

 i hate to be a critic of the community here, but isn't this insistence on
 SSL a bit eh... lazy?

 here's a starter for a onewayHash-based login crypto:

 and think that with a proper layout of authentication architecture, one can
 really secure a login system without having the administrative overhead of
 installing SSL everywhere, and the monetary cost for a SSL certificate for
 each domain.

 I wish to code such a solution into a really-free library (so probably LGPL
 or GPL + MIT) over the next 2 to 5 months.
 This library would be a complete SQL, PHP  javascript package (jQuery
 plugged in), targetted for the novice programmer.

 I'm halfway (or more?) there, i think.
 For my own CMS, i have taken the following approach, which i'd like to hear
 your improvements on:

 (For onewayHash() i have MD5 and SHA256 implementations in both JS and
 PHP..)

  SQL:

 create table users (
 user_id   integer,
 user_login_name  varchar(250),
 user_login_hash  varchar(250),
 user_password_hash   varchar(250),
 other fields
 primary key (user_id)
 );

 create table preferences (
 pref_system_hash   varchar(250)
 
 );

  PHP (pseudo-code) , on system installation:
  preferences.pref_system_hash = onewayHash ( randomStringLength(100) );

  PHP , on user-create:

  users[user_id].user_login_hash = onewayHash(user_login_name +
 preferences.pref_system_hash);
  users[user_id].user_password_hash = onewayHash (someGooodPasswordNot +
 preferences.pref_system_hash);

  PHP, on request of a login form:

  challenge = makeNewChallenge ();
  //checks since when [browser IP] has last received a new challenge, if
  threshold : make a new challenge. else return old challenge.
 //a challenge is a random string (+ special chars) pushed through the
 onewayHash function.

  html = '
 form id=loginForm
input type=hidden id=sh name=sh
 value=preferences.pref_system_hash
input type=hidden id=ch name=ch value=challenge
input id=plain_user name=plain_user/
input id=plain_pass name=plain_pass/
input type=hidden id=user_hash name=user_hash/
input type=hidden id=pass_hash name=pass_hash/
 /form
  ';
  sendHTMLtoBrowser (html);

  Javascript: on page with login form:

  jQuery('#loginForm').submit (function () {
var sh = jQuery('#sh')[0]; //same for ch, plain_user, plain_pass,
 all the inputs in the html form.


user_hash = onewayHash ( onewayHash ( plain_user.value + sh.value )
 + challenge );
//same for pass_hash basically

plain_user.value = ''; //clear out the plain text fields so they
 dont get transmitted (same for plain_pass ofcourse)

jQuery.ajax ( /* submit login form through POST, handle results */ )
  }


  PHP, on receiving the login form data:

 // walk through all the records in

XSL needs to know that you are outputting XML-derived data...

eg. try putting this before your xsl:template:

  xsl:output method=html indent=no encoding=UTF-8 
omit-xml-declaration=yes/

Symfony uses exactly this method for pretty urls. Check it out. Maybe it has
everything you want :). Have a look at symfony's .htaccess rewrite rules at
least. You have a few possibilities here: You can make ur own rewrite for
urls that contain index.php or rewrite
http://mysite.com/alfa/bravo/charlie/deltahttp://mysite.com/index.php/alfa/bravo/charlie/deltaas
http://mysite.com/index.php/alfa/bravo/charlie/delta and other urls...

Or in your framework or cms or whatever have helper functions to get the
right urls for images etc. Paths like simply putting img
src=/images/myimg.png alt=my img / shouldnt be too hard either.

Why would you want to do such a thing?
If you want parameters in the filename without using get, use mod_rewrite
and explode the page name - and use a delimiter or than a / - IE use an
underscore, dash, upper case vs lower, etc to indicate your different
variables.

/ has a special meaning in a URL string, I don't understand the motive of
wanting to use it as a delimiter in a filename. That calls all kinds of
weird issues (like the one you are experiencing, which is because the
browser has no way to know index.php is a page - and the browser resolves
relative URL's - that's not an apache issue)
