Re: [PHP] Mime-type handling
mime types are very unreliable and should never be used for file type authentication (they can also be faked by users). Instead you could try using the extension of the file or an identifying statement in the file.

I tested on multiple machines (with different version of file) and I sometimes obtain a diffrent behaviour but never the one expected :/ I also looked for the latest version of file but it seems that the file used to detect the mime-type is out of date... My questions are: * If you already encounter this problem, how did you solve it ? * Where can I find an up-to-date version of magic number list usable with file for mime type checking ?

Re: [PHP] ob_start session_start
Sure, ob_start begins a buffer allowing you to display content in the browser before your script has finished executing. This is useful when loading a time intensive page to tell the user to wait. When you create a session (provide php is not configured otherwise) php attempts to store a cookie with the session id that corisponds to the session file on the server. If it cannot set this cookie it appends the session id to pages in the get format. If you were to call session_start() after the output buffering, content and consequentially the headers would have been already sent to the browser. Since cookies must be set in the headers and the headers must be set before any content is sent to the page, to use cookie based sessions you must begin the session before the buffer.

Re: [PHP] array carrying from one php page to another
you could just pass in in the address, eg:
www.example.com?var1=$var1var2=$var2
to get them use $_REQUEST['var1']
to pass an array you could use serialize($var1) and unserialize($var1)

$array = array('my', 'list', 'of', 'stuff');

And in the code that is called in the popup:
?php
if(!isset($_SESSION['array_for_popup']) {
die('you should not be here anyway, only on a popup is this allowed');
}
$array = $_SESSION['array_for_popup'];
// .. do your magic.
// optionally clean things up. so the session var is removed.
unset($_SESSION['array_for_popup']);
?
Don't forget session_start(). :-)
(You might have session.auto_start enabled, but it's not by default.)

Re: [PHP] ob_start session_start
I have never tried it but if it did work i doubt it would use cookies, it would probably pass it in the addresses or throw an error.

Sorry it looked like the rest of your email was part of the previous one.
