[PHP] About sessions and subdomains
Hi everyone, Sorry, this might be a stupid question, but still. Once upon a time I had done so my sessions were handled on all subdomains of my website (shame on me for doing so!). Now, when I comment out the line session_set_cookie_params(0, /, .oire.org); in my header file, I got an empty $_SESSION array after submitting every single form on my website. For sure, signing out and back in, as well as cookie removing, were tried several times.

[PHP] A php bug or?..
Hi everyone,
As we all know, count() returns 1 if the variable
is not an array.
Question is: why in the world does it this? If a variable is *notA* an array,
it contains *zero* array elements.
You can answer: but no, man, you can say
$x=world;
$y=$x{3}; // $y=l
so the variable is treated or can be treated as an array.
Well. If strings are treated like arrays, why count($x) doesn't return 5
instead of 1?
Just asking.

Hello Daniel, DPB does it return the number of characters within a string --- instead, DPB as you likely know, you'd use strlen(). For sure.

Hello alekto, I've got several notes to point out: 1. You can't do neither a header(), nor a SetCookie() after any echo on the page. The out-of-php pieces of the page included. 2. Don't, please please don't store raw passwords in the database! Hash them, better even adding a salt.

[PHP] Session treating
Hi guys and girls,
I'm completely stuck at a really stupid thing.
For some reason my session id doesn't pass through the links.
Here is the code:
index.php:
?php
// Checking if the admin was ever authorized
if ($_SESSION['PSS']!=session_id()) $auth=0; else $auth=1;
if ($_SESSION['Editor']!=Voice of Istanor) $auth=0; else $auth=1;
if ($auth==0) {
if (!@$_POST) {
// If there's no POST values, including the login form
include login.php;
// For debugging only, outputs: Session name: PHPSESSID, session id: ;
printf(Session name: %s, Session Id: %s, session_name(), session_id());
} else {
// Here go real values
if (($_POST['uname']!=Tralala) || (sha1($_POST['upass'])!=abcdeftralala)) {
echo h3Invalid login or password!/h3;
include login.php;
} else {
// Attention!
session_name(PalantirSessId);
session_start();
// Everything goes Ok here
printf(Session name: %s, Session Id: %s, session_name(), session_id());
$_SESSION['PSS']=session_id();
$_SESSION['Editor']=$_POST['uname'];
$auth=1;
}
}
}
if ($auth==1) {
echo !DOCTYPE HTMLhtml
head
meta charset=\utf-8\
/head
body bgcolor=#CCBBFF;
include header.html;
// Still ok! the same name, the same Id
printf(Session name: %s, Session Id: %s, session_name(), session_id());
end of code.
But now go the links such as
a href=articles.phpArticles management/a
And there, in the articles.php, I write the following:
?php
session_name(PalantirSessId);
session_start();
printf(Session name: %s, Session Id: %s, session_name(), session_id());
And here (!) the session name is correct, but the session id is changed.
My question is: why?
Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Session treating
Hello Ashley, One thing sticks out a little bit to me. In your index.php file, you're accessing an element of the $_SESSION array, but without calling session_start() first. I believe this may be causing the issue you are seeing. I tried using it without success. I'm having now 3 separate session IDs: 1. Before the login form is processed, 2. After the login form is processed, 3. When clicking the Articles link, on the articles.php page. -- With best regards from Ukraine, Andre Skype: Francophile My blog: http://oire.org/menelion (mostly in Russian) Twitter: http://twitter.com/m_elensule Facebook: http://facebook.com/menelion -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Andre, I have checked the $_POST, and THE $_FILES.
I am pretty sure the actual path is not passed. Now you can find the path on
the server in the tmp_name of the $_FILES array.
I have read a few DOM related issue concerning the PATH of the file uploaded in
mulitpart/form-data.
Microsoft: Internet Explorer 7 and later. By default, Internet Explorer does
not include folder or directory path information when uploading files to sites.
So this means the Clients Browser is passing the file name NOT the path.
I am sure if you dig around in JavaScript you may find a way to see the value
of that attribute on submit or click.
I have never wanted to know the actual file path from the end user, nor has it
ever been a request for me to do so.
You can however change the ini for upload_max_filesize and post_max_size inside
of your php script at the top.

So I would like to have your suggestions about the store. Here are the requirements: 1. Basic functionality (possibility to purchase without authorization, maybe no basket). 2. Accessibility and usability by visually impaired persons, for the admin part included (that means, no complicated flash content and such features). 3. I18n capabilities (unicode of course). We need it to be in English, Russian, and Swedish since it's a Swedish company. 4. It should be freeware (or, if it's really impossible, not expensive). 5. It should be Php+MySql.

Re: [PHP] phpsadness
Hello Nathan,
Do you mean $x{8}?
That is good but not for all situations.
I need sometimes to make an array with letters as keys and numbers as
values, like this (I give English alphabet just as an example, so
please don't suggest str_split):
$alphabet=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz;
// I wish that worked
$alphabet_array=explode('', $alphabet);
$letter_numbers=array_flip($alphabet_array);
this is just one case I encountered some time ago. Yes, I made this by
separating letters with commas... but it's not the unique case when I
need it.

Re: [PHP] PHPCaptcha / Securimage 2.0.2 - Authentication Bypass - SOS-11-007
Hello Lists, Sorry for my rude words but... there are already too many websites that either don't give us a possibility to get an audio file instead of those damned captcha images; there are lots of others (such as Msn) where the audio is too distorted to be heard. It's not my f***ing problem that you can't protect your audio against spammers. I'm blind, you know, and I *can't* see the image, because I have no sight at all! And I'm not alone, there are thousands of us only in the USA. So make conclusions: if you make a popular site, one day you might have deep problems and maybe even lawsuits from people.

Remote without authentication Solution Status.Vendor workaround (remove securimage_play.php) CVE reference. Not yet assigned Details. PHPCaptcha, also known as Securimage, is a popular Open Source PHP CAPTCHA library. It is also used in popular WordPress plugins such as the 'Fast Secure Contact Form'. Insufficient distortion in the audio version of the CAPTCHA allows an attacker to quickly decode the CAPTCHA by performing basic binary analysis of the generated audio file. The issue is compounded by the fact that even if the audio feature of the CAPTCHA has been disabled, it can still be accessed by forceful browsing to the /secure_play.php URI. Proof of Concept. Proof of concept code that works against the example_form.php page and the MP3 file format provided with the standard PHPCaptcha package available from www.phpcaptcha.org is available at: http://www.senseofsecurity.com.au/advisories/SOS-11-007.zip Proof of concept code is only available for the MP3 version of the audio, however the WAV audio format is also affected by the same vulnerability.

Hello Negin, that is completely wrong.

There's the outside covering (paint, bricks, siding) and the inside covering (paint, carpet, wallpaper), which makes the presentation -- that's CSS; 3. There's the inside works, such as the plumbing, furnace, air conditioning, and electrical, which provides functionality -- that's PHP; 4. And there's the light-switches that turn on/off, doors and windows that open/close, rheostats that go up/down, faucets that turn on/off, and door bells that remain silent or ring, which allows behavior -- that's JavaScript. You put all of these items together and the entire house can do more than any one of them can do by themselves, namely make a home. Additionally, how you arrange and combine these things together and have them interact with each other is a topic of study that far exceeds the knowledge of any one of them. Furthermore, if you include these things with how people react with web sites (what makes people do things) then you'll have an excellent introduction into problems in creating a good web site -- and that's my ultimate goal.

To quote Jonathan Well, mysql_real_escape_string doesn't protect against sql injections more than addslashes, but that's not the reason you use it. addslashes() was from the developers of PHP whereas mysql_real_escape_string uses the underlying MySQL C++ API (i.e. from the developers of MySQL). mysql_real_escape_string escapes EOF chars, quotes, backslashes, carriage returns, nulls, and line feeds. There is also the charset aspect. However, it is a common thought among a lot of PHP programmers (beginning and even more advanced) that SQL injections are the only thing to guard against with sanitizing user input using it in a query. That, actually, is incorrect. If you only rely on *_escape_string and addslashes because you are only thinking about injections, you leave yourself vulnerable to attacks from users. http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/guide-to-php-security-ch3.pdf It's a nice read, especially if you like reading articles about PHP programming (*guilty*).

So I'd like to make possible to call, for example,
$db-num_rows($result)
and
$db-NumRows($result)
And was just wondering :-).

Hi everyone,
Is there any possibility to make a method or function alias in PHP?
Yes, I know I can do the following:
?php
function foo_bar($x) {
// And so we code...
return $result;
}
function FooBar($x) {
return foo_bar($x)
}
But maybe there is a more elegant solution?
Thanks!
Whilst you can do class_alias() - something I use to hide the long
class name for soap services - there isn't a function alias.
But, if you are creating your own functions, then you could use a
closure and that can be assigned to a variable ...
$fn_FooBar = function() { ... };
$fn_FooBar($a, $b, $c);
or
someFunc($fn_FooBar) { ... }
Closures are ideal for callbacks.
Why do you want to alias functions? Is it to obscure the existing name?
If so, take a look at using an encoder. This uses the compiled code
rather than the source to run.
It is faster to run as there is no compile phase and the code isn't
very easy to reverse.

Really?
How does the blind via readers, such as JAWS, understand what a B is?
First, never use B -- or I for that matter.
Second, use strong or em instead. Readers can understand and
render STRONG and EMPHASIZED text, but not B and I text -- those
tags mean nothing and that's the reason why they are not encouraged
for use and even removed from XHTML.
Third, if neither of those tags (i.e., strong or em ) work for
you, they try using a class (or an id) with a css rule of:
.whatever
{
font-weight: bold;
}
or
#whatever
{
font-weight: bold;
}
Cheers,
tedd

By the way, the non-last optional parameter can't be missed, am I
right? In some languages we could write something like:
function test ($a, $foo=50, $bar=true) {
// ...
}
Then call it like this:
$m=test(blah, , false);
meaning
$m=test(blah, 50, false);
This is impossible in PHP, isn't it?

Correct Richard. Ron
function load_advertisement( $web_page_reference ,
$web_advertising_sizes_reference=default_value)
This sets a default value for a parameter, which you can check for
within the function itself and use it if it differs from what you set.
Set it to something that it shouldn't be, like null or something.
Also note that these parameters have to occur after any that don't have
a default value

how many entries are you talking about, ie., how many conditions?

if you have more than 4-5 it's going to be easier to code up as a case

Never in all my days have I ever heard of using an array for such a

Subject: [PHP] Submitting data to MySQL database using HTML/PHP form
Thanks everyone! However, when I click the submit button, the url simply
moves to http://localhost/login.php (from home.php) and it is a blank page
(apart from asking whether it should remember the password for future use).
The values still do not move to the database.
I included most of your suggestions
a) added mysql _error()
b) different names for the variables
c) removed double quotes
d) changed ? (silly error!)
e) modified the $insert query
The code now looks like this:
?php
// Connect to server and select database.
$host = localhost;
$user = root;
$mysql_pass = abc;
$db = directory;
mysql_connect($host, $user, $mysql_pass) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db) or die(mysql_error());
// username and password sent to mysql database
$login = $_POST['login'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$insert = INSERT INTO user_info
(login, password)
VALUES
('.mysql_real_escape_string($login).','.mysql_real_escape_string($password).');
mysql_query($insert)
or die (Unable to add user to the database:.mysql_error());
?
I could insert the values using the command line, and it was updated in
MySQL, but it doesn't work through the form... it just goes to a blank page
on login.php. I'd appreciate any insights on why that's happening.

I included most of your suggestions
a) added mysql _error()
b) different names for the variables
c) removed double quotes
d) changed ? (silly error!)
e) modified the $insert query
The code now looks like this:
?php

$host = localhost;
$user = root;
$mysql_pass = abc;
$db = directory;
mysql_connect($host, $user, $mysql_pass) or die(mysql_error());

// username and password sent to mysql database
$login = $_POST['login'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$insert = INSERT INTO user_info
(login, password)
VALUES
('.mysql_real_escape_string($login).','.mysql_real_escape_string($password).');
mysql_query($insert)
or die (Unable to add user to the database:.mysql_error());
?
I could insert the values using the command line, and it was updated in
MySQL, but it doesn't work through the form... it just goes to a blank page
on login.php. I'd appreciate any insights on why that's happening.

In case you're actually trying to test if a variable was passed or not
that doesn't work (as it doesn't detect NULL passed in). Use
func_get_args() as that gives you any and all arguments passed to the
function, excluding defaults.
That said, if you're making use of optional parameters and need to
check if anything was passed in, you're almost certainly doing things
wrong.

Using an empty string and the empty() function in this way can lead to subtle
and hard to find bugs - for example if $z = 0, the code will not be executed.
Note the list of things that are considered empty:
http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.empty.php
Instead, consider setting the default value for $z to boolean false:
function MyFunction ($x, $y, $z = FALSE) {
if ($z) {
// do stuff with $z
}
}
In this way almost any value in $z will trigger the conditional code,
including 0 or an empty string. The exceptions are FALSE and NULL. If you
explicitly need to react to a NULL value, use is_null() to detect it.
Cheers,
Mark

Greetings List members,
I have a script that takes quite a while to run, one or two hours, I wish
to
redirect the normal php output to a file on the webserver itself. I don't
mind if in the process, the browser displays a blank page. The reason I
want
to do this is that if the script crashes or the browser Is closed by
mistake, I have absolutely no record of where the script stopped running.
I could use code like below
At the beginning of the script:
ob_start();
At the end of the script:
$page = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_flush();
$fp = fopen(output.html,w);
fwrite($fp,$page);
fclose($fp);
However, I see some problems with this:
I'm not too sure of the size of the output. It may balloon to over the
buffering limit (in PHP? Apache?) and then what happens?
Secondly, if the script crashes before the end, I won't get any output.
Finally, I am using a library in the script that outputs status and error
messages of its own. So, if I manually opened a file and used fwrite()
alongside echo for my messages, I would lose out on those messages.
Anybody has any pointers on how you could send the output not only to a
browser, but also to a file on the webserver? If not, at least to a file?
Thanks and regards,
Ferdi
Just curious, but if it takes that long to run, why are you running it
from a browser? why not run it from the commandline, that way you dont
have to change your php.ini for the webserver (increasing the timeout,
memory limits, etc etc... you can change those for the CLI only?
2 hours is a long time to hope that the browser doesn't close, or
connectivity doesn't get interupted for even 1 microsecond...
if the script has breaks in it, where it starts to do something else,
you can put in an email to yourself, to say hey, we're HERE now
but i would look into running it from the CLI over the webserver, you
would be less likely to run into issues on something that takes that
amount of time to run.
If you needed the output to be displayed on a webpage, you can write the
progress to a file, and then have a php webpage that reads the file, and
using ajax or whatever, refresh the content.
good luck in your script, and if you still run it from the browser, and
need to output to a file, then i would continually be writing content to
that file, every time you do soemthing, or start another part of the
script so you know EXACTLY where you are, at all times...
Steve
Hi Steve,
Thanks for the tips. To answer your queries, I don't mind using CLI. How do
I then ensure the messages, error or otherwise, output by the library I use,
show up in the file I'm outputting to? Please note that I only make calls to
the functions and object methods from this library and error or success
messages are probably echo'd by the code from the library.
I believe some context is in order. I am actually sending an email to a
large number of our customers (around 10,000), each with the customer's
name.
My script does output a simple success or failure message. The library
outputs more technical info. All I would like to know is which email got
sent and which one failed. As you point out, I could write the success /
failure messages to a file, but, I would also like to capture the messages
output by the library.
Thanks and regards,
Ferdi
I would log the success/failure with the data (assuming it is coming from a
DB).
If not, you could use a simple file_put_contents($filename, date('r')
. $text . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND);
That would append 1 line of text at a time to the file. Using tail on
that file would show you the last work done (and when it was done).

if you're using a linux based server, you could log (like Richard said)
each success / failure to the file, or each to its own success / failure
file, and then if you want to watch the, you could just do a tail -f of
the file, to see what is it doing (sometimes having it scroll is pretty
handy i find)...
it wouldn't be hard to write a web-based 'tail -f' page, so you

Subject: [PHP] questions about if statements regarding a checkbox
hello,
I'd like to know the proper code to use in a php script that processes a
form with a checkbox in order to send one email if the checkbox has been
checked and another email if the checkbox hasn't. I tried if($check ==
true) and I tried putting the word true in double quotes, and both of
them caused the unexpected variable syntax error. The only problem
is, all I could think to use was that line of code I just used, I'm not
sure what the proper syntax is for checkbox when using the if statement
to send one email when the checkbox is checked and a different email
when it's not checked. I'm wanting to send an email to the site admin
with the information given by the person who filled out the form that
contains the checkbox.
Thanks,
Ben

[PHP] RegExp question: how to add a number?
Hi everyone,
I hope you're doing well (haven't written here for a long time :-)).
The question is as follows: I have a regexp that would do the
following. If the string begins with Re:, it will change the
beginning to Re[2]:; if it doesn't, then it would add Re: at the
beginning. But (attention, here it is!) if the string starts with
something like Re[4]:, it should replace it by Re[5]:.
Here's the code:
$start=mb_strtolower(mb_substr($f['Subject'], 0, 3));
if ($start==re:) {
$subject=preg_replace(/^re:(.+?)$/usi, re[2]:$1, $f['Subject']);
} elseif ($start==re[) {
// Here $1+1 doesn't work, it returns Re[4+1]:!
$subject=preg_replace(/^re\[(\d+)\]:(.+?)$/usi, re[$1+1]:$2, $f['Subject']);
} else {
$subject=Re: .$f['Subject'];
}
I know there actually exists a way to do the numeral addition
(Re[5]:, not Re[4+1]:).
How do I manage to do this?
Thanks!

[PHP] Making multiple RSS feeds for the blog website
Hi everyone, We are developing a blog service website. What we need now is the ability to make multiple RSS feeds from several pages (an RSS of each user's blog, a feed from each timeline - timelines are our representation of users' favorites; a feed filled with comments to a separate entry, etc.). What would be great is the following: a user enters, say, in my blog and sees the mark that there are RSS feeds. Then he/she clicks the mark or presses a keystroke (Alt+J in IE8, for instance), finds the feed and double-clicks on it. Then he/she can either read the feed or subscribe to it. The feeds have usually file extensions of .rss or .xml. Question: how do we do that with PHP?

How secure is a .htaccess file to store passwords and other sensitive stuff? Can a .htaccess file be viewed remotely? Semi-safe, .htaccess is prevented from being served by configuration options (which come as default), however these can be overwritten so best to check by doing a GET on the resource URI. This doesn't prevent them from being exposed via other processes though, for instance a poorly coded 'download.php?path=/path/to/.htaccess' could still expose the file. Typically, its obviously better to store only a hash of a password rather than the pass in plain text, choosing the strongest algorithm you can; password security is of course relative though, a sha-512 of 'password1' is far from secure. A good way to approach encryption for files is to openssl_seal them using a public key which is only available to your application - this doesn't negate insecure code, but it at least ensures the raw files are encrypted securely enough to negate any of these worries.

Re[2]: [PHP] Do you have some standard for defined the variable in program language?
Hello viraj,
As for classes, it's suggested to start a class name with a capital:
class MyBestClass {
...
}
As for functions and class methods, there are lots of people who name
them like this:
function the_greatest_function_in_the_world () {
...
}
Maybe it's readable and great, but I have a little problem: I'm using
a screenreader, so the word underscore (and its Russian equivalent)
is too long for me. So I prefer
function TheGreatestFunctionInTheWorld () {
...
}
However, just discussed it with my wife. She prefers the same method
as me, though she doesn't use any screenreading software for
developing.

$firstName is the most readable.. for variables.

There is no enforced standard on how you define your variable names in
PHP. However, you should try and remain consistent with whichever way
you decide to use. Personally, I find the $firstName style the best of
the four examples you gave. It's easily readable when I look over code
at a later date, and slightly faster to type than $first_name (although
even if only by a mere fraction of a second!)
Some existing codebases might use a particular method though, and if
you're working on a project with a team, then it really helps to all be
using the same convention of naming variables.
At the end of the day, this is all down to preference, along with code
indentation and layout.
Thanks,
Ash

if (!empty($_POST['EndDate'])) {
// blahblah, inserting into database
}
3. This is quite simple, I think. You write:
optionChoice 1/option
What would you like PHP to write in the DB? It has nothing to write at
all) You should do this instead:
option value=1Choice 1/option
option value=2Choice 2/option
So now you have values to insert)
Hope I could help you!)

Subject: [PHP] Inserting, storing, outputting dates and selections
Hello,
I've got two questions which are probably fairly simple, my issue is
i'm staring at this so long it's blurring together.
I'm working on a form to insert data in to a mysql database. I've got
a startdate and and enddate field in the database both of type DATE,
i'm needing this as i'm wanting to do a calculation against the date
and only display records greater than or equal to the current date. My
understanding is dates have to be entered as 2010-06-02 with this
format.
I'm having several issues: the first of which is I entered a date as
probably a user would as June 2, 2010 and on the display page got all
zeroes, is there a way i can be more flexible with my data entry,
enter it, then store it in the format mysql needs?
My second issue is that the startdate field is NOT NULL while the
enddate field is. On submission I only want those forms that are
actually in the post data to get inserted in to the database, and
displayed, i.e. if enddate was not entered I shouldn't see all zeroes
in the field in the database, if using the mysql commandline client,
or all zeroes in displayed output. I'm not sure how to conditionally
insert or display a field based on whether it's set.
My last issue, not on dates, is on a selection box. I've got two
choices to choose from, choice1 and choice2 just for this example. If
a user goes through and selects nothing I want choice1 to be
automatically selected on form submission, if a user selects choice2
then the form should go with that. Here's my code.
div
label for=txtchooseChoose*:/label
select name=Choice for Selection
option - choice1 - /option
option - choice2 - /option
/select
/div
On form submission the php script processes it and enters an empty
field in the database if the user doesn't select an option.
Thanks.
Dave.

Re[2]: [PHP] One more time about regexes
Hello Adam,
You did understand me exactly and perfectly).
Ordering arrays is a good idea but I don't know how to do that
exactly.
For instance, there's a cypher called Polybius square. You write in
the alphabet in a grid like this:
1 a b c d e
2 f g h i j
3 k l m n o
4 p q r s t
5 u v w x y
6 z
There is a way where i/j are equal to make a 5 by 5 square but for me
it's equal since I'm working with a 33-letter Russian alphabet, so no
way to make it a perfect square.
Anyway, a letter has two coordinates and is represented by a two-digit
number. For example, E is 15, K is 21, Z is 61 and so on.
So we have a word, say, PHP. It will look like this: 412341.
What does preg_replace do? Exactly, it's searching 41, then 12, then
23, and so on.
I tried to make a loop:
$length=mb_strlen($str);
for ($i=0; $i$length; $i+=2) {
$pair=mb_substr($str, $i, 2);
$pair=preg_replace($numbers, $letters, $str);
}
It already smells something not good, but anyway.
If I do that, I have one more problem: say, we have a phrase PHP is
the best. So we crypt it and get:
412341 2444 452315 12154445
Then the parser begins: 41=p, 23=h, 41=p, (attention!) \s2=
I marked a whitespace as \s so you see what happens.
I might split the string by spaces but I can't imagine what a user
inputs: it might be a dash, for example...
Sorry for such a long message but I'm really annoyed with this
preg_replace's behavior. And it's not the only one task to
accomplish...
Thanks a lot!

If I'm understanding correctly, Andre, you want to perform a replace
operation, but you're observing that there's an element of recursion
happening (e.g., you replace one item with its replacement, and then the new
replacement is also replaced.)
To my knowledge, this won't happen with a standard preg_replace():
$string = 'Bil Tom Phil';
$pattern = '//';
$replacement = 'amp;';
// outputs Bil amp; Tom amp; Phil
echo preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $string);
However, if you're using arrays to pass in the patterns and replacements,
then one array item could later be replaced by another (see comment and
example on this page by info at gratisrijden dot nl):
http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php
If that's the case, you have to carefully structure the order of the array
items so-as to preclude one replacement having the opportunity to override a
subsequent replacement.
Sorry if I misunderstood. You might want to create a simple example of code
showing what you're working through.

Re: [PHP] Convert UTF-8 to PHP defines
Hello Guus,
Actually, we are using the same method here on http://oire.org/. We
have all of the language files in UTF8 format and everything seems to
be OK. Yes, unicode support in PHp laisse à désirer, like the French

Subject: [PHP] Convert UTF-8 to PHP defines
We use PHP defines for defining text in different languages. As far as I
know PHP files are supposed to be ASCII, not UTF-8 or something like that.
What I want to make is a conversion program that would convert a given UTF-8
file with the format
definetext1=this is a text in random UTF-8, probably arabic or similar text
definetext2=this is another text in random UTF-8, probably arabic or similar
text
into a file with the following defines
define('definetext1',chr(t_value).chr(h_value).chr(i_value)...chr(x_value).chr(t_value));
define('definetext2,chr(t_value).chr(h_value).chr(i_value)...chr(x_value).chr(t_value));
Not sure if I'm using the correct chr/ord function, but I hope the above is
clear enough to make clear what I'm looking for. Basically the output file
should be ascii and not contain any utf-8.
Any advise? The html_special_chars did not seem to work for Vietnamese text
I tried to convert, so something seems to get wrong with just reading an
array of strings and converting the strings and putting them in defines.

Hey Ash,
I do a print_r($_POST) and see there the \r\n's. Please don't pay
attention to question marks, there is some Cyrillic here:

Hello everyone,
Just can't imagine what happens. There is the simplest function in the
world:
function LineBreaks ($str) {
$what=array(\r\n, \n, \r);
$with=array(br);
$str=str_replace($what, $with, $str);
return $str;
}
And... it does work on one site and doesn't on another. Same hosting
provider, same settings, all the same.
When I call
$_POST['uwork']=LineBreaks($_POST['uwork']);
Nothing happens. Yes, it does see \r\n's but it doesn't replace them
with br's. Tried built-in nl2br(), but no result...
Thank you!..

If nl2br() doesn't even work, are you really sure that those character
exist in the string? Just for our own sake, could you demonstrate how
you determine that the carriage return and line break characters exist
in the string?
Thanks,

You shouldn't actually be able to see the \ chracters, so I would assume
that you're escaping them somehow and magic quotes are getting in the
way on the live server with the problems.
Have you checked the magic quotes settings on both servers. Also, as a
general rule of thumb, if something stops working on a new server, check
to see if the setup is the same. Compare the output of phpinfo() on both
of them first, as that will show you any obvious differences.
Thanks,
Ash

[PHP] preg_replace: avoiding double replacements
Hello everyone, Sorry for bothering you again. Today I met a problem exactly described by a developer in users' notes that follow the preg_replace description in the manual: info at gratisrijden dot nl 02-Oct-2009 02:48 if you are using the preg_replace with arrays, the replacements will apply as subject for the patterns later in the array. This means replaced values can be replaced again. Example: ?php $text = 'We want to replace BOLD with the boldtag and OLDTAG with the newtag'; $patterns = array( '/BOLD/i', '/OLDTAG/i'); $replacements = array( 'boldtag', 'newtag'); echo preg_replace ($patterns, $replacements, $text); ? Output: We want to replace bnewtag with the bnewtagtag and newtag with the newtag Look what happend with BOLD. Is there any solution to this besides any two-step sophisticated trick like case changing?

How do I make the check that allows to insert firstly the missing IDs and only then apply the auto-increment? Thanks! Using PHP, you could find the missing IDs by using the following steps. 1 - Get the current maximum ID. SELECT max(ID) as Max FROM table If you aren't interested in the ones before the first valid ID then also retrieve the min(ID). So you end up with $MinID = 1, $MaxID = 195. 2 - Get all the current IDs. SELECT ID FROM table So you end up with $KnownIDs = array(1,2,3,5,9,12,17,195); 3 - Use the range() function in PHP to build an array from the lowest id (or 1) to the highest id. $RangeIDs = range($MinID, $MaxID); 4 - Use array_diff($RangeIDs, $KnownIDs); to find the missing IDs. So ... ?php $MinID = 1; $MaxID = 30; // Edited to suit output $KnownIDs = array(1,2,3,5,9,12,17,30); // Edited to suit output $RangeIDs = range($MinID, $MaxID); print_r(array_diff($RangeIDs, $KnownIDs)); ? outputs ...

Re[2]: [PHP] Inserting rows with missing IDs
Hello Bob, Nope; they're not. They are blog entries that were deleted along with their comments. I'm just thinking about doing this when the amount of entries exceeds a reasonable number. -- With best regards from Ukraine, Andre Skype: Francophile; WlmMSN: arthaelon @ yandex.ru; Jabber: arthaelon @ jabber.org Yahoo! messenger: andre.polykanine; ICQ: 191749952 Twitter: m_elensule - Original message - From: Bob McConnell r...@cbord.com To: Andre Polykanine an...@oire.org Date: Monday, May 3, 2010, 4:40:18 PM Subject: [PHP] Inserting rows with missing IDs From: Andre Polykanine It's not a strictly PHP question, however since I use that with PHP, I'm asking it there.

Re: [PHP] Joomla FrameWork ::
Hello Nick,
That means that the function SetVar is situated in the jRequest class.
So if you want to modify the function, for example, you need to know
where the class jRequest is situated.

Subject: [PHP] Joomla FrameWork ::
I am trying to understand how the joomla framework works, i see an heavy usage
of:: in its code, here an example:
function edit ()
{
JRequest::setVar('view, 'single');
$this -display();
}
from my really basic php understanding in the function edit i call a function
setVar() and i pass the paramter 'view' and 'single' in it then the output
($this) is passed to the display() function.
My question is what does :: means? an more precisely referring to the example:
JRequest::setVar('view, 'single'); how do you read it and how do you manage
it?
Cheers, Nick

[PHP] A stupid question about classes
Hello everyone,
Just a basic question.
I have my class starting like this:
Class OireMail {
// these are required
public $smtp_server=;
public $domain=;
public $from=;
public $login=;
public $pass=;
And then go the function themselves.
I was told that it's better to put the initial variables in the
__construct() function. What are the advantages of doing that and if I
need to do it, how would I call the class from another file then?
Thanks!
