[PHP] How do I get Apache 1.3.36 to use PHP 5

2007-08-26 Thread Beauford
Not to sound like a total nob, but how do I get Apache 1.3.36 to use PHP5. I
have both 4 and 5 installed, but it still uses 4. I never had a problem with
4.

I read the followed the INSTALL file for PHP5, below. I reinstall Apache as
well and nothing - step 11.

I tried putting LoadModule php5_module /usr/local/apache/libphp5.so in my
http.conf, but it doesn't exist.

Any help is appreciated.

   Example 2-2. Installation Instructions (Static Module Installation for
   Apache) for PHP
1.  gunzip -c apache_1.3.x.tar.gz | tar xf -
2.  cd apache_1.3.x
3.  ./configure
4.  cd ..

5.  gunzip -c php-5.x.y.tar.gz | tar xf -
6.  cd php-5.x.y
7.  ./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.x
8.  make
9.  make install

10. cd ../apache_1.3.x

11. ./configure --prefix=/www --activate-module=src/modules/php5/libphp5.a
(The above line is correct! Yes, we know libphp5.a does not exist at
this
stage. It isn't supposed to. It will be created.)

12. make
(you should now have an httpd binary which you can copy to your Apache
bin d
ir if
it is your first install then you need to make install as well)

13. cd ../php-5.x.y
14. cp php.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php.ini

[PHP] List

2007-04-24 Thread Beauford
Does anyone else have this problem with the list. It seems that every time I
check my email there is one or more messages from the list that royally
screws up Outlook. I usually have to delete all list messages from the
actual server and reboot. It only happens with emails from
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Just trying to narrow down the problem. Not sure if this is spam that's
sneaking into the list messing things up or what.

If you want help, you must provide some example text strings that are to be

 Here's the code.

 }
 elseif(!preg_match('|[EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:_. /\t-]+$|',

 $formerror['comment'] = invalidchars;

 Hi,

 Your sample text contains newlines.  If you wish to allow newlines,
 instead of  \t you should use the whitespace selector \s

 ?php
 $comment = 'Testing 12345. This is a test of the emergency 
 broadcast system.

 WAKE UP!!';
 if(!preg_match('|[EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:_.\s/-]+$|', $comment)) {
 echo 'oops';
 } else {
 echo 'ok';
 }
 ?

 Try that code sample, and you'll see that it says ok

 What exactly are you trying to accomplish with this 
 preg_match()?  What
 exactly are you trying to filter out?  I understand you want to
 eliminate invalid characters but why are they invalid?  I 
 ask because
 there may be a simpler way to solve the problem, if you can 
 explain what
 the problem is.

 Thanks,
 Greg

FW: [PHP] Re: LOL, preg_match still not working.

2007-02-19 Thread Beauford
I pasted this right from my PHP file, so it is correct. Just to elaborate. I
have tested this until my eyes are bleeding.

Sometimes this works sometimes it doesn't.

One minute !!!##$$ This is a test %% will work the way it is supposed to,
the next minute it does not.

It seems that the first time through it is fine, but on the second time and
on it is not.
So if I keep hitting submit on my form with the above string, it will be ok
on the first submit, but on subsequent submits it says there are invalid
characters.

Suffice it to say, it is wonky. It seems like it works when it wants to.

Thanks

Perhaps the code in your email, that is working for other people, is not 
the same code that you are testing and having problems with. Perhaps you 
should try clipboarding the code from the email into a file to test 
yourself. Perhaps there is a typo in the code you are actually testing, 
so that it is not the same as the code in the email you sent to the 
list. Anyway, you can test that by clipboarding the code from your 
email, like others are doing, and testing it.

I've been over this a thousand times with various users on this list and
escaping this and escaping that just doesn't matter.

The error is that it thinks valid characters are invalid. In the case of the
example I included, the ! and the period are invalid, which they should not
be.

The nocomments and invalidchars are constants.

 Maybe you just copied it wrong, but nocomments and 
 invalidchars are not 
 quoted, or they're constants.
 
 I don't think you have to, but you might need to escape some of the 
 characters (namely * and .) in your regex.  It's been a while, so I'd 
 have to look it up.
 
 What's the error you are getting?

 I had the same problem on FreeBSD 6.2, with php5 installed from ports

 For me it appeared to be some kind weird misconfiguration

 happened during the portupgrade...
 
 I had to:
 
 pkg_delete -rv php5*
 rm -rf /var/db/ports/php5*
 rm -rf /usr/local/lib/*
 cd /usr/ports/lang/php5
 make install clean
 cd /usr/ports/lang/php5-extensions
 make install clean
 
 A bit harsh, but all of the preg_* errors disappeared since then.

 otherwise I'll just remove
  it as I just spent way to much time on this.
 
  Thanks
 
  Here's the code.
 
 if(empty($comment)) { $formerror['comment'] = nocomments; 
 }
 elseif(!preg_match('|[EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:_. /\t-]+$|',
  $comment)) {
 $formerror['comment'] = invalidchars;
 }   
 
  This produces an error, which I believe it should not.

RE: [PHP] preg_match problem

2007-01-24 Thread Beauford
 Here is my rendition of what I think you are looking for.
 
 $str = 'tab(  )/space( )/[EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:...';
 
 if ( preg_match('|[EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:_. /\t-]+$|', $str) ) {
   echo 'success';
 } else {
   echo 'failure';
 }
 

Here is the problem, and it is strange. If I enter each of the above
characters into my form one at a time and hit submit after each one, NO
error is produced for any of them.

If I cut and past this all at once:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:_.\ then an error
IS returned.
If I continue to remove one character at a time, submitting the form each
time, errors ARE still produced.

This is the code in a nutshell:

If(isset($submit)) {

$name = stripslashes($_POST['name']);   I have tried this with and
without

$formerror = array(); unset($result);   I have tried this with and
without

if($result = ValidateString($name)) { $formerror['name'] =
$invalidcharacters;

Function ValidateString($string) {
if (!preg_match('|[EMAIL PROTECTED]*();:_. /\t-]+$|',
$string) ) {
return invalidchars;
}
}
}

 if (preg_match('/[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'\\/ ]+$/', $string))
 
 Use single quotes and double back-slashes. PHP strings also 
 have escape sequences that use the back-slash as escape 
 character, that's why you have to double them. And single 
 quotes to avoid the $ character interpreted as the start of a 
 variable.
 
 PS: Will we be risking going the perl way if we ask that PHP 
 supported regular expressions natively (I mean: without 
 having to provide them as strings)?

I have tried all the examples posted in the last couple of days, and none of
them, including the above work. Is there another solution to this, as this
just seems to be way to buggy?

RE: [PHP] preg_match problem

 You need to escape that forward slash in the character class:
 
  preg_match(/[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'\/
 
 Also, you've got only two backslashes in your char class.  PHP is 
 reducing this to a single backslash before the space character.  I 
 think you intend this to be two backslashes in the pattern so you 
 need four backslashes in PHP:
 
  preg_match(/[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'\/ ]+$/, $string)
 
On top of this, every time a ' is entered it gets preceded by \. If I just
check for the characters like below that doesn't happen. Totally confused.

if(preg_match(/^[-A-Za-z0-9_.' ]+$/, $string)) {

RE: [PHP] preg_match problem

2007-01-23 Thread Beauford
 You don't need to escape the apostrophe if the pattern isn't 
 quoted with apostrophes in PHP or delimited by apostrophes in 
 the PREG pattern.  But generally there's no harm in escaping 
 characters unnecessarily; it just makes for messier code.
 
 Here is a simple test of the regexp I recommended yesterday 
 using the pattern:
  /[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'\/ ]+$/

Ok, after a lot of testing and seriously losing it, this is what appears to
be the issue. Blank lines or \n or some kind of carriage return is  not
allowed. The first example works, the others don't. I tried adding a
carriage return, but who knows, I may be way out on left field with this.
It's insane.

I'm trying to get this but not quite there. I want to allow the following
characters.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'/\ and a space.

Is there a special order these need to be in or escaped somehow. For
example, if I just allow _' the ' is fine, if I add the other characters,
the ' gets preceded by a \ and an error is returned. If I take the ' out of
the sting below it works fine, I get no errors returned. I am also using
stripslashes on the variable.

This is my code. (although I have tried various things with it trying to get
it right)

 Please read this page:
 
 Pattern Syntax -- Describes PCRE regex syntax 
 http://ca.php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.syntax.php
 
 specifically the section on character classes:
 http://ca.php.net/manual/en/reference.pcre.pattern.syntax.php#
 regexp.reference.squarebrackets
 
 In PREG there are few characters that you need to escape in a 
 character class expression:
 
 1) ^ must be escaped (\^) if it's the first character (it 
 negates the match when it's unescaped in the first position).
 
 2) ] must be escaped (\]) unless it's the first character of 
 the class (it closes the class if it appears later and is not 
 escaped).
 
 3) \ must be escaped (\\) if you're referring to the 
 backslash character rather than using backslash to escape 
 another character.
 
 4) Control codes such as \b for backspace (not to be confused 
 with \b which means word boundary outside of a character class).
 
 
 In addition, you may need to escape certain characters in PHP if 
 you're expressing the RegExp pattern in a quoted string, such as 
 single or double quotes (whichever you're using to quote the pattern):
 
  '[\']'  escape the apostophe
  ['\]  escape the quotation mark
 
 Those are PHP escapes -- by the time PREG sees the pattern, the PHP 
 compiler has rendered it to:
 
  [']
 
 And then of course there's the complication that both PREG and PHP 
 use the backslash as the escape character, so the pattern:
 
  [\\]  escape the backslash
 
 must be expressed in PHP as:
 
  []  escape the escape and the backslash
 
 Interestingly, PHP compiles both \\\ and  as \\, go figure.  I 
 use  to escape both backslashes to maintain some semblance of 
 logic and order in these eye-crossing expressions.
 
 Because PHP requires quotes to be escaped, I find it easier to write 
  debug patterns in PHP if I express them in heredoc where quoting 
 and most escaping is unnecessary:
 
 $sPattern = _
 [']
 _;
 
 becomes the PREG pattern ['\\].
 
 
 So to address your character class:
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'/\ and a space.
 
 I'd use the pattern:
 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'/\\ ]
 
 where the only character I need to escape is the backslash itself.
 
 In PHP this would be:
 
  $sPattern = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.\'/ ]';
  (escaped apostrophe  blackslash)
 or:
  $sPattern = [EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'/ ];
  (escaped blackslash)
 or:
  $sPattern = _
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'/ ]
 _;
  (escaped blackslash)

I've probably read 100 pages on this, and no matter what I try it doesn't
work. Including all of what you suggested above - is my PHP possessed? 

if(preg_match(/[EMAIL PROTECTED]()*;:_.'/\\ ]+$/, $string)) { gives me
this error.

Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Unknown modifier '\' in
/constants.php on line 107

So if If you wouldn't mind, could you show me exactly what I need right from
the beginning and explain why it works.

i.e. 

if(preg_match(what goes here, $string)) {
Echo You got it;

[PHP] Php / MySQL DESC tablename

2007-01-21 Thread Beauford
Hi,

First off thanks to everyone for the previous help. I managed to get it
sorted out and used several of the suggestions made.

I am trying to do a DESC table_name using PHP so it looks like it would it
you did it from the command line.

i.e. 

| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra  |
+---+--+--+-+-++
| id| int(11)  | NO   | PRI | NULL| auto_increment | 
| name  | varchar(30)  | NO   | | NULL|| 

What I have found is that the following does not work the way I would have
thought.

$query = DESC table .$currenttb;
$result = mysql_query($query);

while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
etc.

I have found something that works, but it is still not like the above and is
really bulky. I can not get the type (varchar, etc) to show like above, it
will show string, blob, etc, and the last problem is it puts the last 4
fields in one variable (flags).

Does anyone know of a way to get this to output as shown above. I am putting
this into a form for editing, so I need everything in the proper places.

Thanks


Here is the entire code:

mysql_select_db($_SESSION['currentdb']);

$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM .$_SESSION['currenttb']);
$fields = mysql_num_fields($result);
$rows  = mysql_num_rows($result);
$table  = mysql_field_table($result, 0);

for ($i=0; $i  $fields; $i++) {
$type  = mysql_field_type($result, $i);
$name  = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
$len  = mysql_field_len($result, $i);
$flags = mysql_field_flags($result, $i);
echo all the filds
}

This outputs (depending on the order you echo them):

username string 50 [not_null primary_key auto_increment]  value in [] is one
value.

The regex itself was not really the problem, although I appreciate the help
on that, but I'm not sure I follow the rest of what your saying. I tried
your line below, and whether or not there were errors, an error was always
returned. So ABC or @#$ would give me the same result.

if ( ($result = ValidateString($event) ) !== false ) {
$formerror['firstAttempt'] = $result; }

[PHP] One last try at this!

2007-01-17 Thread Beauford
I hope I can explain this so I can get this figured out, 'cause if not I may
just have to find an alternative to PHP. I can't be wasting 3 and 4 days on
something as simple as this.

Below are 3 validation routines. When I first enter the page 'Optional' is
displayed for all of them as it should be, but when I click submit on the
form without entering any data, the first one displays optional (which it
should), but the 2nd and 3rd ones execute the elseif and the validation
routine says there are invalid characters in the string. If nothing is
entered in the form where is it getting a value It should never
get to the elseif to start with if nothing is entered in the form. So how
can I make a reliable check?

if(empty($orgname)) { $formerror['orgname'] = Optional; }
elseif($result = ValidateString($orgname, 2)) { $formerror['orgname'] =
$result; }

if(empty($website)) { $formerror['website'] = Optional; }
if($result = ValidateString($website, 2)) { $formerror['website'] =
$result; }

if(empty($event)) { $formerror['event'] = Optional; }
if($result = ValidateString($event, 2)) { $formerror['event'] = $result; }

Again, sorry to be a pain, but I just don't get it.

RE: [PHP] I lied, another question / problem

2007-01-16 Thread Beauford
Obviously I'm not quite understanding, maybe a further explanation is needed
to help me understand.

This is how I see it from what you said - am in in the right ballpark.

The function is returning a null value if there is no error, and I guess PHP
sees 'null' or  as a value. So how do I get around this?

This is how I call the function.

if($result = ValidateString($orgname, 1)) { $formerror['orgname'] = $result;
}

If there is an error an error string will be returned (i.e. Error in field),
if not I want nothing returned.

Later on in the page I use - if(!$formerror) blah blah.

This is where the problem is because if null or  is being returned then
$formerror has a value which breaks the above if.

I hope this helps.

  function invalidchar($strvalue) {
  if(!ereg(^[[:alpha:][:space:]\'-.]*$, $strvalue)) {
 
 That regexp matches if $strvalue consists of zero or more

 numeric values of 
 ' and . in your locale.  Zero or more means it

  three spaces) are valid entries?
  
  Where do you see 3 spaces?
 
 That's a value the regexp will match. Is that intended?
 
  In any event, I don't think this is the problem.
  As I have said the code works fine on two other pages,

RE: [PHP] I lied, another question / problem

2007-01-16 Thread Beauford
 
 This is a bad way to test for a value also, unless you 
 expecting only TRUE or FALSE and you are sure that it will 
 always be set.

 Otherwise you should do something like this
 
 if ( isset($formerror)  $formerror != '' ) {
 // Display Error
 }

The problem here is this. formerror is an array and can have formerror['a'],
formerror['b'], etc. I don't care how many errors there are, I only want to
know if there was an error somewhere along the way.

Example:  if I have two fields, Name and Age and they both have errors, I
would echo $formerror['name'] and $formerror['age']

Then I check if(!$formerror) { do something.. This would not get done as
the above two have errors, which is what I want.

The problem still lies with something being returned from the function even
if there are no errors. So if(!$formerror) never gets done. Which is the
problem.

Another question, and not related, how do I kill a session when someone
leaves a particular page.

As I said the problem is that a value is being returned, how I check it is
really not an issue as I know there is value there. I guess I need to figure
out how to only return something if there is an error, and not return
anything if there is no error, or just totally revise the way I am doing
this period.

I have corrected the problem, but it is messy and it is cumbersome, but it
will have to do until I can work out something better. At least now I can

2007-01-15 Thread Beauford
I'm familiar with the .htaccess file and I am told by the hosting company
that apache is set up to use it, I've just never used it much - especially
for PHP. If this works I'd even like to set an includes file for PHP. Here
is the file.

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

Limit GET POST
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
/Limit
Limit PUT DELETE
order deny,allow
deny from all
/Limit
AuthName www.site.com
AuthUserFile /home/user/public_html/dir/file.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/user/public_html/dir/file.grp

php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0

 Copying this back on list where it belongs...
 
 If the apache process on the server is configured to support 
 .htaccess files, then there shouldn't be anything special you 
 need to do.  Do you have any other htaccess directives in use 
 that could be affecting it?  Remember that it's not 
 htaccess, it's a .htaccess file.  Mind the period.

On a real web host, they'll let you have a .htaccess file where 
you can disable them like so:
   
php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0

[PHP] FW: Eregi question

2007-01-15 Thread Beauford

Hi,

Hopefully this is my last question so I can put this site to bed. Is there a
good article that explains how to do the patterns for eregi.

I have read tons of articles, but none really explains what everything
means. Like why some things have square brackets and some have round, what
does the * and $ do? Etc.

i.e.

^[_+a-z0-9-]+(\.[_+a-z0-9-]+)[EMAIL 
PROTECTED](\.[a-z0-9-]{1,})*\.([a-z]{2,}){1}
$

The problem I am having is I'm trying to create a small function to validate
a web address.
i.e. www.site.com (no http://).

I have tried [a-z0-9]+.[a-z0-9]+.[a-z0-9], but it only works partially. If
I input www.bob I get an error -  www.bob.com I get no error, but it doesn't
stop. www.bob.com.bob.bob.bob also produces no error. How do I stop it after
it matches the 3 patterns?

Thanks

[PHP] I lied, another question / problem

2007-01-15 Thread Beauford
I have file which I use for validating which includes the following
function:

function invalidchar($strvalue)
{
if(!ereg(^[[:alpha:][:space:]\'-.]*$, $strvalue)) {
 return *;
}
}

Here is the problem. If I don't use the function, like below, there is no
problem.

if (empty($person)) { $formerror['person'] = *; }
elseif(!ereg(^[[:alpha:][:space:]\'-.]*$, $person)) {
 $formerror['person'] = *;
}

If I use the one below it says $formerror['person'] is set, but if I echo it
there is nothing in it. But here is the kicker, I have several other scripts
that use the same function with no problems. In fact, I have another form
which uses the code below with no problems. So I am at a loss as to what the
problem is. I have deleted all other validating except for the one below to
try and narrow this down, but still at a loss. One last thing, if I unset
$formerror['person'] at the end of the code below, it works. So obviously it
has a value - but what is it and how is it getting it?? Am I just losing
it

if (empty($person)) { $formerror['person'] = *; }
else { 
$formerror['person'] = invalidchar($person); 
}

Any help before I go insane.

This is the entire code:::

? 
session_start(); 

if(isset($_SESSION['nodatabase'])) { unset($_SESSION['nodatabase']); }
$databasename = database;
include_once(constants.php);  // This has the functions in it

if($mysubmit  !$_SESSION['added']) {

$name = slashstrip( $_POST['person'] );
$place = slashstrip( $_POST['place'] );
$comment = slashstrip( $_POST['comment'] );

if (empty($person)) { $formerror['person'] = *; }
else { 
$formerror['person'] = invalidchar($name); 
if($formerror['person']) { $formerror['person'] = *; }
}


if (!$formerror) {

// Calls function to write entries to database - which works
if I could get here

$inserterror = writerecord($today, $_SESSION['cfname'],
$person, $place, $comment, $ipaddrs);
if($inserterror) { 
$headerror = $inserterror;  
}
else { $_SESSION['added'] = True; }
}
else { $headerror = formerrors; }
}

?

Further to my previous email, there is something weird going on here. I just
tried using this:

if (!ereg('^[A-Za-z0-9]', $strvalue)) {
 return error;
}

When I enter the word Test, which is valid, I am still getting an error
returned - but only on this one page. So there has got to be something on
this page that is screwing this up, but what. I have been over and over this
and can't see a problem.

I could really use another pair of eyes on this as it is driving me nuts. I
am now into hour 6 with this. Absolutely ridiculous.

 I don't know, I don't care. You have enough problems with the

 Should it

 I don't understand that paragraph. The regexp matches, and 
 the function returns *nothing* just as you programmed it.  
 That, of course, means that the variable you are assigning 
 this *nothing* gets set to *nothing*, which, in PHP lingo, is null.

The problem is that it is returning *something*, and that's what I am trying
to figure out.

If I put this in my code after I do the checking it works, but it should not
work if the function is retuning *nothing*. So the original question
remains, what is being returned and why?

If($formerror) echo Testing;  This will display Testing - it should not
display anything since nothing should be returned.


 
  All I want to accomplish here is to allow the user to enter 
 a to z, A 
  to Z, and /\'-_. and a space. Is there a better way to do this?
 
 1. Do you really want to let them enter backslashes, or are you trying
to escape the apostrophe?
 2. Does that mean that /\'-_. (without the quotes) and (that's
three spaces) are valid entries?

Where do you see 3 spaces? In any event, I don't think this is the problem.
As I have said the code works fine on two other pages, which logically
suggests that there is something on this page that is causing a problem.

Does anyone have any idea to this problem? All the code is in the emails I

my own function not using any pregs, eregs, or any other regs and it works
perfectly. It's probably not considered good programming, but it works the

I would however like to know what the issue is with the original code, or if

My apologies, but I am just so frustrated right now. It seems my function
doesn't work either (if that's even the problem, which at this time I just
don't know). Somehow my variable is still getting a value, and I have no
idea how. Even if I don't return anything it still gets a value. Basically
this has just broken my whole site.

If anyone can figure this out let me know, right now I just have to put this
site up with no validation.

[PHP] Forms and destroying values

2007-01-12 Thread Beauford
Hi,

How do I stop contents of a form from being readded to the database if the
user hits the refresh button on their browser.

I have tried to unset/destroy the variables in several different ways, but
it still does it. 

After the info is written I unset the variables by using unset($var1, $var2,
$etc). I have also tried unset($_POST['var1'], $_POST['var2'],
$_POST['etc']). I even got deperate and tried $var = ; or $_POST['var'] =
;

What do I need to do to get rid of these values??? Obviously I am missing
something.

Any help is appreciated.

is unset() used for as it doesn't seem to do anything? With a language as
good as PHP I though there would be some way to do this. I have got a
workaround, but that's exactly what it is - a work around. I am also still
confused as to why giving them a null value doesn't work.

Thanks to all.

 Subject: Re: [PHP] Forms and destroying values
 
 This issue comes over and over again.  The trick, as I 
 learned from this list, is to send a redirect to the browser 
 to a confirmation page, so the browser remembers the page 
 redirected to and completely ignores the page that made the 
 redirection so that neither a refresh nor going back to it 
 can repeat the operation.
 
 So, if the database update has been succesful, use the 
 header() function to send a 'location' header along with 
 enough arguments in the URL to display a significant 
 confirmation message  but make sure that it is different from 
 the URL that makes the database update.   It will be this 
 address, not the 
 post that made the database update, that the browser will remember.

  Hi,
 
  How do I stop contents of a form from being readded to the 
 database if the
  user hits the refresh button on their browser.
 
  I have tried to unset/destroy the variables in several 
 different ways, but
  it still does it.
 
  After the info is written I unset the variables by using 
 unset($var1, 
  $var2,
  $etc). I have also tried unset($_POST['var1'], $_POST['var2'],
  $_POST['etc']). I even got deperate and tried $var = ; or 
 $_POST['var'] 
  =
  ;
 
  What do I need to do to get rid of these values??? 
 Obviously I am missing
  something.
 
  Any help is appreciated.
 
  Thanks

RE: [PHP] Forms and destroying values

2007-01-12 Thread Beauford
Thanks, a little confusing there. You would think though that once the info
is transmitted by the browser it would be forgotten by the browser. Anyway,
I do have a work around, and since PHP can't do anything about what the
browser does, this will have to suffice.

Thanks all.

 You need to get it clear in your head when PHP is sending 
 data to the client and when it is not. Your assumption is 
 basically that the data in $_POST is actually *connected* to 
 the form displayed in the browser. 
 This is not the case. When you change the contents of $_POST 
 it has no effect on what the browser displays or uses since 
 it's not actually sent to the browser unless you specifically 
 output it in the form of a, erm, form.
 
 When the user hits refresh, or uses the back button it is up 
 to the browser what it does. In the case of refresh, if the 
 page being refreshed was created in response to a form being 
 submitted the browser will ask the user if they want to 
 resubmit the data. When using the back button the browser 
 will usually use its cached copy of the page rather than 
 hitting the server again.
 
 Hope that makes it clearer.

RE: [PHP] Windows directory listings

Maybe I should clarify. When I use a windows path (c:\whatever) I get an

 this if statement will run given the value of $page, it's not

This makes no difference. I took it out before and got the same error.


 btw: php defines a constant DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR automatically 
 which may help you make your code more portable, and save you 
 having to think/worry about the blacksdlashing 'problem'.
 
 $dirlist = array () ;
 if ( $mode != FILES ) { $dirlist[] = $page ; }
 
 right here I suggest adding a check using is_dir() and 
 is_readable() on the $page var.
 for now stick in a bit of debug code ...
 
 echo 'pre';
 var_dump($path, is_dir($path), is_readable($path)); echo '/pre';

I checked the NTFS permissions and they are fine, and the local directory
displays fine. By this I mean the directory where this script is.

So if the script is in c:\test I can read c:\test, c:\test\test2.
c:\test\test3, ../test2. etc. It only happens when I go outside of the
current drive. 

So if I put $page = test, or $page = test3, or $page = ../ they will
all work. As soon as I add a drive letter, it gives me the error. Even on
the local machine.

I am trying to access a networked drive, but I have a share on the PC where
the script is . May this is the issue. Is there a way to use a UNC path?
 
 I'm guessing that is_readable() is going to return false, 
 which would point the fact that either the drive or the 
 directory is not readable by the webserver process (you don't 
 mention whether you are running via a the webserver but I 
 assume you are given the output your generating include a 
 'br') - the situation maybe compounded by the fact that F: 
 is actually a mapped drive of some sorts (I have no idea what 
 kind of trouble this could cause).
 
 
 
 if ( $handle = opendir ( $page ) ) 
 {
 while ( false !== ( $file = readdir ( $handle ) ) )
 {
 if ( $file != '.'  $file != '..' )

[PHP] Date problems

2007-01-04 Thread Beauford
Hi All,

I have a database with a bunch of dates in it. I want to count the number of
entries for each year and then display the year and the count.

i.e.

YearCount
200622
200518
200414
200322

This is what I have tried but just not quite getting it.

$query select count(date) as count, YEAR(date) as thisyear from stats group
by thisyear;

This is the error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in
C:\Websites\Website\test.php on line 29

So obviously I must have the syntax not quite right. If I run just select
YEAR(date) from stats from the mysql command line it works fine, so I
believe the database is set up right.

Any help is appreciated.

  work right.
 
 The redirect solution has several gotchas
 
 It tends to mess up the back button, which is annoying to 
 some users.  (Okay, maybe that's just me.)
 
 It's possible for an impatient user to hit Back and Stop 
 fast enough to re-submit the data anyway, in some browsers, 
 so it doesn't solve the problem 100%, really.
 
 A header() to redirect chews up HTTP connections, which can 
 be problematic on a heavy-traffic site, because it has to 
 send the 302 to the browser, which then has to send back 
 another HTTP request to the server to get the new page.  So 
 you double your traffic load and number of Apache children 
 needed to provide the feature-set of this page.  On a 
 much-visited page on a busy server, that can be a real issue, 
 instead of the non-issue it usually is.  YMMV  NAIAA
 
 
 Embedding a token in the FORM, and tracking that token as 
 used in a session or db is what I prefer, personally.
 
 Since you don't want to use sessions, you can simply have one 
 more table in your DB:
 
 create table used_token (
   token char(32) unique not null primary key,
   whatdate date
 );
 create index used_token_whatdate_index on used_token(whatdate);
 
 Then in your original FORM part of the script:
 form action=?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']? method=post
   input type=hidden name=token value=?php echo 
 md5(uniqid(rand(), true)? /
   Rest of form here
 /form
 
 In the processing section:
 ?php
   $token = $_POST['token'];
   if (!preg_match('/[0-9a-g]{32}/i', $token)) die(Bad Guy);
   $query = select count(*) from used_token where token = '$token';
   $used = mysql_query($query, $connection) or die(Database Offline .
 error_log(mysql_error($connection));
   $used = mysql_result($used, 0, 0);
   if (!$used){
 //insert form contents to DB (your existing code goes here)
 $query = insert into used_token(token, whatdate) 
 values('$token', now());
 mysql_query($query, $connection) or die(Database Offline .
 error_log(mysql_error($conection));
   }
   else{
 //do whatever you want to do with a re-submission, 
 possibly nothing
   }
 ?
 
 
 Then you'll want a cron job to clear out any token in 
 used_token where the whatdate field is, say, a week or more 
 old.  Less than a week on an ultra busy server.
 
 ?php
   //cron job to clear out old data
   $query = delete from used_token where whatdate  
 date_sub(now(), interval 1 week);
   mysql_query($query, $connection) or 
 die(mysql_error($connection)); ?
 
 There is a 1 in a billion chance that two users could get the 
 same token, but you can play games with that as well to 
 guarantee uniqueness.

Hmm. I was thinking more of a one liner that would just clear the memory
buffer of these variables, but it seems this is a little more involved than
I anticipated. And it's not that I didn't want to use sessions, I just
didn't want the extra work - but what you suggested above is way more work
than sessions. So now I've just used a simple session. If it's true, don't
add the user, if false add user. Still not exactly what I want, but will do
until I find something better. 

This is most likely not a php thing, but would there be a way to refresh the
page, fooling the browser into thinking it's being freshly loaded?

Thanks to all.

Did you recompile apache after running php's make install? Using
--with-apache builds a module that gets compiled *into* apache (as opposed
to --with-apxs which creates a dynamic module), ie. you need to rebuild
apache after building php.  My guess is the gzinflate error probably comes
from an old php module.

Zlib is different to zlib-dev/zlib-devel.

The zlib package only contains the binaries and man pages.

The zlib-devel package contains the header files (zlib.h for example) you
need for compiling against it.

locate zlib.h

if that returns nothing, then the problem is still that you need the

If it does return something then what does it return ? Maybe you need to
specify the path to zlib in the php configure line.

[PHP] PHP Installation question

2006-12-06 Thread Beauford
Hi, 

I am trying to install vBulletin and keep getting this error: Fatal error:
Call to undefined function: gzinflate().

The only thing I can find on this is that zlib needs to be configured with
PHP at compile time. So I reinstalled PHP using the following:

./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.36 --with-zlib
--with-gd
make
make install

The above finishes with no error.

I rebooted, but still get same error, and zlib or gd doesn't show up in my
phpinfo output. zlib is installed, and from my understanding gd is included
with PHP, all the other libraries for gd are also installed. So what am I
doing wrong?

Also, how do I find out where something is installed? i.e. zlib. If I do a
search on it I get hundreds of hits...

Last. In the above ./configure line I get a message from PHP saying I am
using the built in version of MySQL - if I point it to the actual MySQL
source directory I get the following error.

configure: error: Cannot find libmysqlclient library under ../mysql-5.0.22

Any help is appreciated.

I am using Slacware 10, PHP 4.4.4, MySQL5.0, and Apache 1.3.36

Thanks

RE: [PHP] PHP Installation question

I have zlib-1.2.1.1-i486-1. Whether that is zlib-devel or zlib-dev I have no
idea, and not sure how to find out.

Sort of figured out the MySQL problem, but now I get an error when I run
'make'. This is not a biggie, but the other problem I need to get resolved.

Thanks

Check if you have zlib-devel or zlib-dev package installed. You need this to
be able to compile support into other applications.

No idea how you do this on slackware.

Also try specifying the path to zlib:

--with-zlib=/usr for example.

 Also, how do I find out where something is installed? i.e. zlib. If I 
 do a search on it I get hundreds of hits...

No idea about slackware. Do a search or ask a slackware list/forum.

 MySQL source directory I get the following error.
 
 configure: error: Cannot find libmysqlclient library under 
 ../mysql-5.0.22

Install the mysql-dev/devel /or mysql-client packages most likely.

Or point it to the right directory. You need to point it to the base of the
mysql package. Eg if mysql is installed in /usr/local/mysql (so binaries are
under /usr/local/mysql/bin  libs are in
/usr/local/mysql/lib) then

--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql

[PHP] Viruses

Does the PHP list not monitor spam or filter out viruses? I am getting a lot

[PHP] php.ini ini_set

2006-10-31 Thread Beauford
I am working on a website for a friend that is being hosted by a third party
(which uses Linux) and I don't have access to the php.ini or any other
system files.

The problem I am having is this. When an email is sent from the website and
the user receives it, it says it is from [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of the
websites email address. How can I get it to say it is coming from the
website address. I do have access to a cgi bin, and maybe .htaccess if
something can be done with these. I thought though that I could use ini_set
to do this.

Any thoughts.

Thanks

If that works then you have a problem:  you are storing dates as a plain
string ( varchar or whatever) instead of a native date/time datatype, which
precludes the use of a large number of native SQL date/time functions, such
as year() which should suit you nicely in this case.  Eventually, you will
bump into something more elaborate which you won't be able to do on the SQL
side just with string functions and that will force you to bring whole
tables into PHP to do more extensive processing.

You can do this in .htaccess under Apache, or with ini_set (which would have

But you SHOULD NOT DO THIS

Nobody else on the planet is using % for PHP, and it's unlikely to be all

Hi. If you re-read my reponse you will see that it uses preg_replace with
the i flag which ignores case and will match banned words within words. With
a little modification (I can help if you like) you can easily use it in your
case. 


[PHP] Question on explode and join.

2006-09-13 Thread Beauford
Hi,

I have a form which I want to check for inappropriate words before it is
posted. I have used explode to put the string into an array using a space as
the delimiter and then I check it against another array that contains the
inappropriate words.
I then replace the inappropriate words with *'s and join the array back into
a string.

This works perfectly except for one thing.

If the word in the string has a any kind of punctuation after it (period,
comma) it won't be matched.

So if  moron is an inappropriate word then you are a moron works, but you
are a moron. won't.

Any ideas?

Thanks

This is my code.

function badwords($string) {

$language = array(contains the inappropriate words);

$words = explode( ,$string); 
$count = count(explode( , $string)); 

for($i = 0; $i  $count; $i++) {
if(in_array(strtolower($words[$i]), $language)) {
$words[$i] = *;
}
}

$newcomments = join( ,$words);

return $newcomments;
}

There ya go. Works and is shorter than what I did. Thanks.
 
One other question. if I have bunny and bunnyhole in the badword array. if
someone types in bunnyhole, I end up getting *hole in the clean string. If I
change the order of the words in the array would that solve the problem?
 
Thanks

Perhaps you could try an approach like this:
?php
$dirty = array(
'ipsum',
'eloquentiam',
'Vero'
);

$string = Lorem ipsum ius no etiam veniam, usu alii novum ne, sed cu
molestiae eloquentiam. Vero invenire philosophia est ne, quo nemore timeam
an.; 

$clean = str_replace($dirty, '*', $string);

echo brstring: . $string;
echo brclean: . $clean; 


GENERATES:

string: Lorem ipsum ius no etiam veniam, usu alii novum ne, sed cu molestiae
eloquentiam. Vero invenire philosophia est ne, quo nemore timeam an.
clean: Lorem * ius no etiam veniam, usu alii novum ne, sed cu molestiae *. *
invenire philosophia est ne, quo nemore timeam an.




RE: [PHP] Question on explode and join.

2006-09-13 Thread Beauford
 
The problem with scripts like these is there is so many variables to deal
with. First, this doesn't deal with uppercase. So a word like bAdWoRd would
not get detected, or a word beginning a sentence. Also, a word within a word
like wordbadwordword would not be detected, and I'm sure there are more I
haven't discovered yet. I haven't had much time to play around with it since
earlier today, so I haven't experimented with it, but ideas are welcome.

Thanks

$dirty = array(

foreach ($dirty as $key = $word) {
$dirty[$key] = '/\b'. $word . '\b/'; }

Good luck. I have tried 1001 ways to try and get PHP 5.xx to work on Windows
with no luck. Everyone says it's simple, but I believe there is a bug in PHP
5. I have no problem in Linux, but on Windows - that's another story. If you
do a search of the archives for this list I'm sure there are tons of posts
about it. Let me know if you figure it out as I'd be curious to know how you

[PHP] Quick Question re: Windows/Linux PHP

2006-06-30 Thread Beauford
Hi,

I'm just curious, because I come across this from time to time.

Why does the code below work on Windows and not on Linux. PHP is 5.0 on
Linux and 4.4 on Windows (still can't get 5 on Windows). The code at the
very bottom is how I got it to work on Linux. Also, why is it with the same
setup I can't call a function within a function in Linux, but can in
Windows. Sorry I don't have the error, but something about calling a static
function. Would this be a difference between OS's or with the different
versions of PHP? 

Thanks

I have done everything that everyone has suggested here, and 1000 other
variations that I have found along the way. So if I'm doing something wrong
- please let me know, 'cause I don't see it.

MySQL 4.1 has been working great for 4 years and PHP4.4 gives me no
problems. Anything 5 and above won't work. Windows is 2000 SP4. PHP is
installed as an ISAPI module. 

;cgi.force_redirect = 1

libmysql.dll is in /winnt, /system, /sytem32, /php and php is in my path. If
it can't find it it ain't looking hard enough. I've also tried many
variations of this.

The error below is similar to what I got. I was also getting memory errors,
but don't have that one to post.

Results:

Well, I don't know what you mean by a known issue. All your message says is
that PHP 5 does not support MySQL. Yes, it does. It has no problem. I have
installed it and used it a million times. So, you are doing something wrong.

Did you test PHP 5 by itself, to make sure that it works without accessing
MySQL? Did you test MySQL by itself, to be sure the server is running
correctly when it is accessed outside of PHP 5.

Did you install MysQL using its installer? That's the best way. What version
of MySQL? What Windows?

Did you turn cgi.force_redirect off in the php.ini file? You have to do that
if you are using IIS.

What error do you get?

 Activating MySQL in PHP 5 is pretty simple. Open the php.ini file and 
 uncomment the line for the extension that you want to 
 use--php_mysql.dll or php_mysqli.dll. Restart the web server.
 
 Using the mysql functions is described in the php documentation.

You're double negating. You check the negative return of ereg() and ereg
checks for the pattern NOT existing.

?php

elseif( !ereg( '[A-Za-z0-9]', trim( $subpass ) ) )

// the ereg check is still wrong though and should be...

elseif( !ereg( '^[A-Za-z0-9]+$', trim( $subpass ) ) )

// though personally, I'd use the following...

elseif( !ereg( '^[[:alnum:]]+$', trim( $subpass ) ) )

?

Ahhh, I was thinking of it the other way round.  Thanks.

[PHP] PHP 5, Windows, and MySQL

2006-06-26 Thread Beauford
Aside from my previous gd problems, here's another problem. It appears that
PHP5 (for Windows anyways) does not support MySQL (which in itself is
riduculous), but here's my problem. I have a script I just downloaded that
works perfectly on Linux/Apche/MySQL/PHP5, but when I run it on Windows 2000
with PHP 4.4 I get a page full of errors. Lets forget about the errors, does
anyone have any idea how to get PHP5 and MySQL to work on Windows. I have
already tried 100 different variations of things from information I found
searching out this problem, but maybe someone has a new idea.

If it were me I'd just run this site on Linux, but this is for a friend who
wants to use IIS. If your curious the errors are below.

Thanks

RE: [PHP] PHP 5, Windows, and MySQL

2006-06-26 Thread Beauford
From what I have been reading this is a known issue with PHP5. There is
something in the php_mysql.dll which is not compatible. 

I wasted 3 hours today trying all the tips and tricks I could find, but the
bottom line is that it won't work. 

This was my reason for posting to this group to see if anyone has any ideas.

Here is one of the many links I was looking at to try and solve this.

Activating MySQL in PHP 5 is pretty simple. Open the php.ini file and
uncomment the line for the extension that you want to use--php_mysql.dll or
php_mysqli.dll. Restart the web server.

Using the mysql functions is described in the php documentation.

RE: [PHP] GD problems

Since I know nothing of how this works, does this actually create a physical
image, and if it does I'm assuming it would be in the originating directory
from where the script was run  - if this is the case, I got nothing.

This is a moot point now as I have done what I need without using gd, but it
would be nice to find out what the problem is.

Thanks.

 Anyone know of a way I can test this further. A small script perhaps.

OK, so that works. So is gd (or one of the required programs) wonky then - I
mean 4 out of 5 scripts I downloaded didn't work. I can't see all of these
people being bad programmers.., but the funny thing is they all work on
Windows. So that can't be it - is there still something I'm missing in Linux
that is required by these scripts? This is what I've been fighting with the
last two weeks.

It creates it in memory and it's a 50 x 50 white square.

Change the 0xff to 0xFF6600 and it should be a red square.

RE: [PHP] GD problems

2006-06-23 Thread Beauford
Honestly, I've never seen anything so ridiculous. How is one to know that in
order to get one program to work you have to install 28 others. I'm not
trying to be a smart ass here, but seriously - No where in any documentation
I've read does it say I need to install all these other packages. Would it
just not be simpler to add them to the original package, and then check
whether or not it's installed - if not, install it. Or at the very least
include all the packages needed and the user can install them if need be. By
the way, I never saw Marks post - it might have saved me some time if I had
though.

Thanks to everyone.

 After my last email I searched around some more and found the following.
 
 /Q: gd keeps saying it can't find png or jpeg support. I did install 
 libpng and libjpeg. What am I missing?/
 /A: Be sure to do make install-headers for libpng and make 
 install-lib for libjpeg, in addition to make install./
 
 This is basically what you were saying, but as I said these header 
 files do not exist on their own (for Slackware anyways) and just by 
 chance I came across the above, but in any event it still doesn't 
 work.  It might be nice though if somewhere in the instructions it 
 says, hey, you might need to do this.
 
 Then I found this when searching on the jpeg errors I keep getting.
 
 /This error occures becuase the linker (ld) cannot find the jpeg 
 library./ /You can fix this problem by editing the config.nice file 
 inside the php4/ /directory and adding / /LDFLAGS='-L/path/to/lib' \ / 
 /above the ./configure \ /
 
 /For example is your libjpeg.so resides inside /usr/local/lib, you'd 
 add/ /-L/usr/local./
 
 /Once you've edited the file, remove config.cache and run 
 ./config.nice,/ /after that make; make install; should work./
 
 Since my/// libjpeg.so / is in /usr/lib I put/// LDFLAGS='-L/user' \/ 
 - I still get the same error. If I compile without the jpeg it works 
 like a charm - so I recompiled libjpeg thinking it may have gotten 
 screwed up, but same errors.
 
 So the question is, why can't it find these files?
 
 Any ideas on what else I can do. I'm assuming that other people have 
 this working on Slackware, if so, how did they do it? I posted to that 
 forum as well and didn't get one answer.

Please always CC the list - you'll get more (and faster) help.

As David suggested, try adding this:

--with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr

to the php configure command.

If that doesn't work, where is the jpeglib.h file?

Mine is in the /usr/include folder, so I use /usr for the --with-jpeg-dir
parameter.

If that file doesn't exist anywhere on your system, you haven't got the
headers installed for libjpeg.

Thanks for the reply, but what are these for then - libpng and libjpeg? No
where does it say I need anything else. I have searched and searched for
information on installing this and never have I seen anything about -devel
packages. Even in the link I gave it says nothing about this. I've just
spent the last hour searching for these packages and can't even come close
to finding anything - all I get is the ones I've already installed, which
I'm thinking are one and the same - and they say Windows is bad. It only
took me 5 minutes in Windows to get this working.  As you can see I'm way

You need the libjpeg-devel, libpng-devel and so on packages to compile
support for these into php. I don't know slackware, so they might be called
-dev or something, but you need the dev packages which contain the header
files.

RE: [PHP] GD problems

2006-06-19 Thread Beauford
What surprises me about this is that no one in the various forums,
newsgroups, email lists, etc. can offer a solution. I'm sure I'm not the
only one that's had this problem. I can't even get an answer from the gd
forums or faq's.

I guess I'll have to see if I can find a captcha program that doesn't use
gd, or (shudder) move my web server to Windows.

Thanks again

 Thanks for the reply, but what are these for then - libpng and 
 libjpeg? No where does it say I need anything else. I have searched 
 and searched for information on installing this and never have I seen 
 anything about -devel packages. Even in the link I gave it says 
 nothing about this. I've just spent the last hour searching for these 
 packages and can't even come close to finding anything - all I get is 
 the ones I've already installed, which I'm thinking are one and the 
 same - and they say Windows is bad. It only took me 5 minutes in 
 Windows to get this working.  As you can see I'm way pass frustrated.

Some things you learn from experience or asking questions :)

It's reasonably standard if you want to compile something into another
program, you need the headers (which are in the -devel package mostly). 
Databases are slightly different in that mysql and postgres (at least) give
you a mysql_config and pg_config to tell you about different stuff.

This of course all depends on which system you are running. Most package
based systems separate things out so the base package installs binaries
only, and the -devel package installs headers and things you need to compile
against it. Port systems (*bsd and gentoo for eg) of course are different
again.

I thought php told you what you needed, I know some other programs will stop
the configure script and say to compile support for X you need package Y
installed. Obviously not..

[PHP] Includes, Require, Location, Other

Hi,

If I were to have something like the following, what is the best way (or
best practice) to reload the page and display the error - or is there a
better way to do this. I want to keep the site uniform and don't want errors
popping up and making a mess.

Thanks

-

$query = select idn, name from manager order by name;
$results = mysql_query($query) or $mysqlerror = mysql_error();
if ($mysqlerror) { 
$error = $table_error$mysqlerror;
include(season.php); - This is not what I really want and
in   some cases
it cause problems.
exit;
}

[PHP] GD

2006-06-12 Thread Beauford
Hi,

I am trying to get GD working so I can use a captcha script and not having
much luck. I can get it to work in Windows, but not Linux. 

I have seen a few comments suggesting that PHP needs to be compiled with the
GD switch. Is there another way to do this? I have PHP, MySQL and Apache
installed and working great, I don't want to have to recompile PHP and have
it screw up everything just for one program. 

Any help is appreciated.

I'm using Slackware 10 and installed GD as an install package. I also

Tom: I have no idea how this program works, all I know is that I need it for

Depending on your Linux distribution, you might be able to find a GD module
for PHP.  That way you don't have to re-compile PHP.  If you use an RPM
based distro, this would be very easy.  Free-BSD you could just compile the
port.

[PHP] Session variables and words with spaces

2006-05-31 Thread Beauford
Hi,

I have a form in which a drop down field is populated from a MySQL database.
I am also using sessions.

The problem is this. After I submit the form the session variable only shows
the part of the input before the space.

Example: if I choose Niagra Falls from the drop down list, then I only see
Niagra when I display it.

I'm not sure though if it is the session or the forms variable that is
causing the problem. I haven't been able to find much on this.

See code below

Thanks



session_start(  );

..Open database and connect to server...

Include(connect.inc);

!! Start of form !!

select name=province
option selected-- Select Province --/option  
 
?

$query = select pid, location from province order by location; $results =
mysql_query($query) or $mysqlerror = mysql_error(); if ($mysqlerror) { 
$dberror = Messed Up;
include(index.php);
exit;
}   

while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
if($line['pid'] == 1) {
echo Option
Value=$line['location'].$line['location']./option\n;
}
}

Not sure why I would get a parse error, but that did correct the problem. I
just completely missed the single quote. I never even clue'd in when I
looked at the source of the page.

Sometimes another pair of eyes does the trick. Maybe it's time for a break.

Thanks


 I'm surprised you're not getting a parse error...

echo Option Value=' . $line['location'] . ' . $line['location'] .

[PHP] PHP, Javascript, and Forms

2006-05-30 Thread Beauford
Hi,

I have a form with about 20 fields in it and have two drop down menus in
which the second one changes depending on the previous one. This is done
with a javascript which reloads the page.

The problem with this is that everything the user has put in so far gets
erased when the page reloads. I am using PHP sessions, but at this point
these fields are not saved yet.

Is there a way to do this using sessions, or some other PHP function. All
the javascript I've looked at reloads the page.

This also screws up my validation routines.

Thanks

The mail function does not support authentication. You may want to try this
class that comes with a wrapper function named smtp_mail(). It emulates the
mail() function but lets you specify the authentication
credentials:
