Well, there is that ... and if the browser does not accept your cookie, it will be trapped in an infinte redirection cycle.

[PHP] problem with my class
Hi guys,
I've been learning about object oriented programming and I wrote this test
class but it doesn't seem to be working, it throws no errors but doesn't
insert anything to the database either. I have made sure that the data being
sent when the class is instantiated is valid.
I'm probably missing something simple here...
I have already
class RecipeCreator
{
private $rtitle;
private $problem;
private $solution;
function __construct ($t, $p, $s)
{
if(!isset($t, $p, $s))
{
throw new Exception ('Missing parameters for
__construct, need $title $problem and $solution');
}
$this-rtitle = mysql_real_escape_string($t);
$this-problem = mysql_real_escape_string($p);
$this-solution = mysql_real_escape_string($s);
}
public function saveRecipe()
{
$query = INSERT INTO recipe (title, problem, solution)
VALUES ('.$this-rtitle.',
'.$this-problem.',
'.$this-solution.');
mysql_query($query);
}
}

And what happens when you instantiate your object without parameters?
$foo = new RecipeCreator();
It should throw and exception. This way you at least know if your
constructor is functioning properly.
And take a look at the message you throw when the parameters are not
set. The parameters are named $t, $p, $s but the message in the throw
statement uses $title, $problem, $solution
did you try echoing out the query and run it from phpMyAdmin or
something similar?

Hi Luke,

function __construct ($t, $p, $s)
{
if(!isset($t, $p, $s))
{
throw new Exception ('Missing parameters for

I think the problem was with the $title. As above, you defined the private
variable $rtitle but you were trying to call the variable later as $title.

How does your Source and Dest variables look like? Full paths? Have you tried your firewall? (Assuming both script and file is coming from local and your firewall is on whitelist mode.) Cheers -- http://www.lampadmins.com I think that explains your problem, in order to upload a file via FTP your FTP client GENERALLY must reside on the same computer as your client, in your case your FTP client sits remotely elsewhere (which is your PHP script) and your file is on your local computer.

Hi guys,
I've been learning about object oriented programming and I wrote
this
test
class but it doesn't seem to be working, it throws no errors but
doesn't
insert anything to the database either. I have made sure that the
data
being
sent when the class is instantiated is valid.
I'm probably missing something simple here...
Are you actually calling your public function?
$x = new RecipeCreator('a', 'b', 'c');
$x-saveRecipe();
You might want to insert some error reporting...
echo mysql_error(); and alike
Byebye
I have already
class RecipeCreator
{
private $rtitle;
private $problem;
private $solution;
function __construct ($t, $p, $s)
{
if(!isset($t, $p, $s))
{
throw new Exception ('Missing parameters for
__construct, need $title $problem and $solution');
}
$this-rtitle = mysql_real_escape_string($t);
$this-problem = mysql_real_escape_string($p);
$this-solution = mysql_real_escape_string($s);
}
public function saveRecipe()
{
$query = INSERT INTO recipe (title, problem, solution)
VALUES ('.$this-rtitle.',
'.$this-problem.',
'.$this-solution.');
mysql_query($query);
}
}
Many thanks,
Luke Slater

Yes I am doing that. The query seems to be going through all right too
I
tested the syntax in mysql query browser and tried mysql_error() but
there
was nothing.
I think there's an issue with the __construct because when I wrote a
method
in there to return one of the properties of the function, it turned up
blank! As I said before the variables I'm passing in are definitely
valid...
And what happens when you instantiate your object without parameters?
$foo = new RecipeCreator();
It should throw and exception. This way you at least know if your
constructor is functioning properly.
And take a look at the message you throw when the parameters are not
set. The parameters are named $t, $p, $s but the message in the throw
statement uses $title, $problem, $solution
did you try echoing out the query and run it from phpMyAdmin or
something similar?
I changed the variables to $t $p and $s because I thought by naming them
with $title $problem and $solution may have been getting them mixed up
somehow.
I figured out the problem, which was that I was actually calling the
saveRecipe() method without the parentheses.
Too long programming in Perl -.-
Thanks for your help,
Luke Slater
Hi Luke,
class RecipeCreator
{
private $rtitle;
private $problem;
private $solution;
function __construct ($t, $p, $s)
{
if(!isset($t, $p, $s))
{
throw new Exception ('Missing parameters for
__construct, need $title $problem and $solution');
}
I think the problem was with the $title. As above, you defined the private
variable $rtitle but you were trying to call the variable later as $title.
The problem was already solved. But I feel like mentioning, that the
Exeption is just naming the variables with their content...
the class reads the vars as $t, $p and $s and it dowsn't matter at all
if you call ist with new foo($BAR, $whatever,
$somethingveryverydifferent), as once in the class only the VALUES
count. and yey're being assigned to the function vars $p, $t, $s,
which are being set to PRIVATE vars $rtitle, $problem etc.
Conclusion: The variable handling has no errors!

Are you just trying to get the contents of the page, or is there

David, please refrain from top-posting.
As for cURL login/session handling... I have an automated script that
connects to a phpBB bulletin board, and here are the settings that
have worked for me:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, {$homedir}cookiefile);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, {$homedir}cookiefile);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, session_name() . '=' . session_id());
I would think CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION and the CURLOPT_COOKIE* options
are most important for resolving your issue.

RE: [PHP] PDO fetch_obj - question
Thanks. I will see. The script for my database was been generated so, I will
doublecheck this uppercase issue...
Regards,

2009/4/15 Thodoris t...@kinetix.gr
Hi there, Ive made a fetch_obj and, as stated on some sites, it returns a
anonymous
object where the properties will have the name of our columns database.
However, when I do this, I notice that instead of giving me the column names
as they are typed on the DB I get them uppercase. So, when my database field
is id_dog to retrieve the property properly I have to search for ID_DOG
Why is this? Is this a normal behavior?
Thanks a lot,
Márcio
I have just dumped an object using var_dump retrieved with pdo fetch object
method:
object(stdClass)#3 (4) {
[id]=
string(1) 1
[cat]=
string(1) 1
[cod_sin]=
string(6) 120014
[cod_uis]=
string(2) 26
}
and it seems quite normal to me. Try to see your table info using:
describe `tablename`;
To see what are your table's fields .
Try to include more info about your system, php version etc in case you
reply. It will help us to help you.

Done. No problem at all. The scripts as generated the database columns with

Coupled with the difficulty of taking over development of someone else's

function call alt() which is dotted everywhere in the main templating
script
(sample below):
// Get/Set a specific property of a page
function getPageProp($prop,$id=) { return
$this-PAGES[alt($id,$this-getPageID())][$prop]; }
function setPageProp($prop,$val,$id=) {
$this-PAGES[alt($id,$this-getPageID())][$prop]=$val; }
It looks to be defining properties for a list of pages, with each page
providing its own PageID.
I've never seen this function before, nor can I find any definition of it
in
the site code, I was wondering if anyone recognises this, is it from a
thirdparty templating tool at all?
It's been suggested you do a thorough search for this function, but the
fact that PHP isn't finding it in the first place leads me to believe it
isn't there. If that's the case, I'd suggest you make up your own alt()
function that does what you think this one is doing (maybe just return
the passed variable). You'll have to decide where to put it that's
visible in all the places where it's called.

There are several issues that came up during the mind-storm: First, how we can keep the files out of being published as direct links? My first idea was to host them one directory up from the http directory. It seems good but how I would deliver the files to the users? We are talking about unlimited file-size hosting so that means that we will have to stream the files somehow... and they will be BIG (it's defendant, about 700MB~ each) We thought of letting users pay by SMS'es, whats your ideas about it?

As far as hiding them from being accessed directly, I think you're right--the file itself will have to be outside of your web root. I would probably use a middle system to grab a request from your page, verify that it did in fact come from your page (maybe with a time-sensitive hash value) and then retrieve the file's contents based on the validity of that hash value.

php wrapper.
It validates (session id or whatever) that the client has permission to
access the file, and then sends the real file.
$archive = /path/to/some/tarball;
$tarname = something.tar;

$sendOutput .= $l;
}
$outputLen = strlen($sendOutput);

We are talking about unlimited file-size hosting so that means that we

Then I suggest setting up a torrent instead of direct download.
You can have protected torrents. I don't know how to set them up but I
use them - there's a torrent site that requires I log in from the same
IP as I'm running the torrent client from, for example.
If you want to provide service for those who can not use a torrent
client, use an ftp server to serve the files - so that ftp clients
capable of continuing an interrupted download can be used.
700MB is really too big fot http. Sure, it works, but it is better to
use a protocol designed for large binary files.

We came to conclusion that we are going to write it in PHP.
There are several issues that came up during the mind-storm:

php wrapper.
It validates (session id or whatever) that the client has permission to
access the file, and then sends the real file.

$tarname = something.tar;

We are talking about unlimited file-size hosting so that means that we
will have to stream the files somehow... and they will be BIG (it's
defendant,
about 700MB~ each)
Then I suggest setting up a torrent instead of direct download.
You can have protected torrents. I don't know how to set them up but I use
them - there's a torrent site that requires I log in from the same IP as I'm
running the torrent client from, for example.
If you want to provide service for those who can not use a torrent client,
use an ftp server to serve the files - so that ftp clients capable of
continuing an interrupted download can be used.
700MB is really too big fot http. Sure, it works, but it is better to use
a protocol designed for large binary files.
RE: [PHP] Need Your Help :) I'm Just About Creating File Uploading Service
How is 700MB too big for HTTP? Ever download a linux distro? Ever
benchmark FTP vs HTTP, the overhead is minimal...

Re: [PHP] Need Your Help :) I'm Just About Creating File Uploading Service
You are definitely right, but there is one thing that you didn't knew and I'm sure that you didn't take into account - usually the files on the server will be DVD rip's that are typically 700MB~ in size, every second movie that people will download will contain some interrupted pieces, although that these small pieces won't affect the file that much in order to keep it out from playing. Most of the video players know how to player these corrupted files and will handle them good. And for torrent - this is a good solution but this is not what I'm after, I'm going to set up an HTTP file hoster, not a torrent tracker ;) Any other ideas regarding serving the files and hosting them will be very appreciated!!

If you want to use http the code I provided in my first response works very well for files I serve outside the web root. make a dummy directory in the web root.

There might be - I'm not familiar with such a technique though. You may be able to use php sessions to enter an IP into a database (or flat file) that standard apache access restrictions could use to determine whether or not to send the file. IE upon succesful login from 192.168.15.7 - that IP is added to a list used in an apache allow from directive. The potential problem I see with that is the IP address you associate with a session may be a proxy.

[PHP] array manipulation
The more I get into arrays, the less I understand.
I have a ridiculously simple task which excapes me completely.

So, I have the query, I have the results. But since I need to split the
list into 2 parts, I need indexes. I cannot use the table index as it
does not correspond to the alphabetical order of the data column. In
order to get the index, I sort the resulting array and that now gives me
34 arrays each containing an array of my results. Wonderful!
But how do I now extract the arrays from the array?
Here is what I'm trying to do:
$SQL = SELECT category
FROM categories
ORDER BY category ASC
;
$category = array();
if ( ( $results = mysql_query($SQL, $db) ) !== false ) {
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($results) ) {
$category[$row['category']] = $row;
}
sort($category);
//var_dump($category);
echo table ;
$count = mysql_num_rows($results);
$lastIndex = $count/2 -1; echo $lastIndex;
$ii = 0;
$cat = '';
//print_r($category['0']['category']);
foreach($category as $index = $value) {
$ii++;
if ($ii != $lastIndex) {
$cat .= $value, ;
}
else {
$cat .= $valuebr /;
}

//echo pre$category/pre;
echo tr
tda href='../categories/, $catn, .php', $cat, /a
/td
/tr ;
}
}
echo /table;
What should I be using in the foreach line?
Please help!

[PHP] catching up
Hey guys, Just trying to catch up to the rest of the world again. Prob wont be able to read all the php mail. Just one thing: Maybe PHP should be renamed to PFP (PHP Free Processor) or something. A recursive acronym sort of suggests that you cannot be free or break out of this infinite loop. What do you think? It could introduce another variable call it $f (for FREE of course, nothing else you dirty minded people), you get the idea. Btw donations on my website are not abused, but rediculously low. I was planning to make my CSV to SQL program free software, but without donations im afraid ill have to fight a court case with the guy who owns me. i love diet coke or coke zero is even better. advertisement not intended.

Yes its me :) Tim-Hinnerk Heuer http://www.ihostnz.com Mitch Hedberghttp://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/m/mitch_hedberg.html - I drank some boiling water because I wanted to whistle. -- Forwarded message -- From: Tim | iHostNZ t...@ihostnz.com Date: 2009/4/17 Subject: catching up To: PHP General list php-general@lists.php.net Hey guys, Just trying to catch up to the rest of the world again. Prob wont be able to read all the php mail. Just one thing: Maybe PHP should be renamed to PFP (PHP Free Processor) or something. A recursive acronym sort of suggests that you cannot be free or break out of this infinite loop. What do you think? It could introduce another variable call it $f (for FREE of course, nothing else you dirty minded people), you get the idea. Btw donations on my website are not abused, but rediculously low. I was planning to make my CSV to SQL program free software, but without donations im afraid ill have to fight a court case with the guy who owns me. i love diet coke or coke zero is even better. advertisement not intended.

The more I get into arrays, the less I understand.
I have a ridiculously simple task which excapes me completely.
I need to ouput all fields in 1 column from 1 table in two phases sorted
alphabetically.
So, I have the query, I have the results. But since I need to split the
list into 2 parts, I need indexes. I cannot use the table index as it
does not correspond to the alphabetical order of the data column. In
order to get the index, I sort the resulting array and that now gives me
34 arrays each containing an array of my results. Wonderful!
But how do I now extract the arrays from the array?
Here is what I'm trying to do:
$SQL = SELECT category
FROM categories
ORDER BY category ASC
;
$category = array();
if ( ( $results = mysql_query($SQL, $db) ) !== false ) {
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($results) ) {
$category[$row['category']] = $row;
}
sort($category);
//var_dump($category);
echo table ;
$count = mysql_num_rows($results);
$lastIndex = $count/2 -1; echo $lastIndex;
$ii = 0;
$cat = '';
//print_r($category['0']['category']);
foreach($category as $index = $value) {
$ii++;
if ($ii != $lastIndex) {
$cat .= $value, ;
}
else {
$cat .= $valuebr /;
}
$catn = preg_replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/, , $cat);
//echo pre$category/pre;
echo tr
tda href='../categories/, $catn, .php', $cat, /a
/td
/tr ;
}
}
echo /table;
What should I be using in the foreach line?
Please help!

Re: [PHP] cURL - Error 400
Hi,
Sorry, that didn't work. The website is still returning error 400 with
CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION and CURLOPT_COOKIE enabled.
I did some experimentation in Firefox by blocking and deleting all cookies
from the site. When I then visited the site, I was able to reach the logon
page without returning error 400 so I doubt it's cookies that is the
problem.
I also tried changing the HTTP headers to:
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Which didn't work either.
Thanks

Are you just trying to get the contents of the page, or is there
something special you're doing? If it's just the contents you're
after, try file_get_contents() if allow_url_fopen is set to TRUE for
your PHP installation.
http://php.net/file_get_contents
http://php.net/allow_url_fopen
David, please refrain from top-posting.
As for cURL login/session handling... I have an automated script that
connects to a phpBB bulletin board, and here are the settings that
have worked for me:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, {$homedir}cookiefile);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, {$homedir}cookiefile);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, session_name() . '=' . session_id());
I would think CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION and the CURLOPT_COOKIE* options
are most important for resolving your issue.

When you uncheck a checkbox in an HTML form, it will not be submitted.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#checkbox
The part on the above page talking about only on checkbox controls can become
successful. is the key here.
The successful part links here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#successful-controls
This explains that the definition of a successful checkbox submission is one that is
on.
To have a checkbox in the on state means that it has to be checked.
So, any checkbox that is /not/ checked is considered off or undefined will
not be submitted because it is not valid.
Or something like that... :)

Maybe create a hidden input tag right next to it that references some default
value.
Why are you wanting to get a value if it is not checked?
If this is what you are looking for are you sure that a checkbox is the right
form input type to be using?

You could use an array system in your checkbox form section.?
Basically, take your check boxes. I am assuming that you have a defined list
of what is expected? Correct?
Have your elements setup like such:
input type=checkbox name=reserve[rm1] value=yes / Room #1
input type=checkbox name=reserve[rm2] value=yes / Room #2
input type=checkbox name=reserve[rm3] value=yes / Room #3
input type=checkbox name=reserve[rm4] value=yes / Room #4
input type=checkbox name=reserve[rm5] value=yes / Room #5
Then on your processing page, you know that you have 5 rooms, 1 - 5.
With this information you can check to make sure that something exists
?php
$rooms = range(1,5);
for ( $i = 1; $i = 5; $i++ ) {
if ( isset( $_POST['reserve']['rm'.$i] ) {
# Room was checked
} else {
# Room was NOT checked.
}
}
?
Something like that should do the trick.
