[PHP] Problem solved!
I didn't want to give up entirely on the flexibility of writing my scripts in C, so I thought some more about how to get a CGI script to use PHP without having to spend a lot of time on PHP logic. My first attempt was to see whether I could substitute the extension .php for the usual .cgi extension. I could, but it made no difference, i.e., PHP didn't intercept the output. I did some searching in /usr/local/lib/php to no avail, but then I brought up the phpinfo page and studied it. Under the Environment heading, I found the variable SCRIPT_FILENAME and passed it a test PHP filename as a command-line argument. Voila! I got a HTTP header and the expected PHP-processed output! Now all I have to do is use popen from the C program that will become my CGI script, and I'll be able to let C handle the GET and/or POST query strings, create the MySQL queries, and pass a more manageable amount of PHP code to access the tables. Using HTTPS should also be more straightforward that way. I knew there had to be a better way! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Thanks very much, Curt. I assumed (stupid me) that I needed to configure PHP 5 for mysqli but this was nonsense since I am using version 4.0 of MySQL. Now I use php_mysql.dll in C:\PHP and only remove the ; from ;extension=php_mysql.dll in php.ini. Sorry to have bothered you all with this. !

[PHP] [problem solved] - Is it possible to see if a jpeg is RGB or CMYK via PHP GD2?
I was to fast on this list... I found the solution reading the manual better ;) ... With JPG images, two extra indexes are returned: channels and bits. channels will be 3 for RGB pictures and 4 for CMYK pictures. bits is the number of bits for each color. Beginning with PHP 4.3, bits and channels are present for other image types, too. However, the presence of these values can be a bit confusing. As an example, GIF always uses 3 channels per pixel, but the number of bits per pixel cannot be calculated for an animated GIF with a global color table. ... -Original Message- From: SED [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 9. janúar 2004 09:51 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Is it possible to see if a jpeg is RGB or CMYK via PHP GD2?

[PHP] Problem Solved
I figured i would post my solution to the problem that i found somewhere. It
had nothing to do with anything i was doing. Its a bug in some versions of
PHP.
here is the function i had to use to fix this
function fix_php_upload_bug($tmp){
$infile=fopen($tmp,r); // Open the file for the copy
$outfile=fopen($tmp.new,w); // create a new temp file
$header=fgets($infile,255); //get the 1st line (netscape sometimes doesn't
add a Content-type line)
//if its more than just a \r\n sequence then
if (strlen($header)2) $header=fgets($infile,255); //get next line also
while(!feof($infile)) { // Loop through the remaining file
$temp=fread($infile,128);
fwrite($outfile,$temp,strlen($temp)); //copying contents to new temp file
}
fclose($outfile);
fclose($infile);
copy($tmp.new,$tmp); //replace the original with our new bug fixed file
unlink($tmp.new); //and delete the new file
return $tmp;
}

As I showed by this :
FORM ACTION=http://your.domain.com/your.script.php; Method=Post
ENCTYPE=multipart/form-data
Input Type=text Name=ImageFile_name value=../../../../etc/passwd
Input Type=Submit Name=Submit
/FORM
I can write this in a simple html, press the submit button and instead of
file you will receive $ImageFile_name as a text variable.
I can write in it everything but you rely on that PHP made it. No PHP
didn't. Also in such form $ImageFile_tmpname can be supplied
and if someone does this :
?php
echo (implode('',file($ImageFile_tmpname)));
?
The /etc/passwd file can be shown easily.
My suggestion : rely on $HTTP_POST_FILES . Yes it is long to type but it's
secured. Also as I said. Since the new PHP 4.1.0 there
will
be $_FILES array, equivalent of $HTTP_POST_FILES(which will exists also).
The GD extension is used for dynamic construction of jpg,png,gif(up to
some 1.x version). The constructed image can be saved to file
or sent to the
browser. GetImageSize() is one of the many functions provided by GD.

Subject: Re: [PHP] Image Uploads beeing corupted
this means nothing to me... sorry, i've only been working with PHP for a
couple weeks. and a few month of web learning. the site im
working
on is hosted by some other guy, so i dont have access to it if i had to
change anything there.
Why is $ImageFile a possible security hole?
What is GD extension?
I dont need to find the type... i just used that as a test to see if
that
might have anything to do with my corrupted file problem. And i found
that
all the information beeing entered into the database re: its name and
size
is fine... but it wont return a type... Im thinking if it cant return a
type
(but still uploads the file) there must be a connection to it beeing
corrupt.

If you have GD extension build in your PHP use it to find the type(if
you
are limited ot jpeg/gif/png files).
I want to say again that the using of $ImageFile* is a possible
security
hole.

Subject: Re: [PHP] Image Uploads beeing corupted
the funny thing is this
the information is beeing inserted into the database... the file is
beeing
uploaded (as i can see it in the directory). I can get results from
$ImageFile
$ImageFile_name
$ImageFile_size
but i cant get a result for $ImageFile_type this comes up
blank
there is obviously some connection, but just not sure what.

The problem is in that you do global only for $ImageFile, but not
for
$ImageFile_name.
Big flaw is that if someone make a form
FORM ACTION=?php $SCRIPT_NAME ? Method=Post
ENCTYPE=multipart/form-data
INPUT TYPE=hidden name=MAX_FILE_SIZE value=100
Input Type=text Name=ImageFile__name
value=../../../../etc/passwd
Input Type=Submit Name=Submit
/FORM
may be can make a big shot. Depends on under which user Apache is
running.
The best technique is to use $HTTP_POST_FILES. Since PHP4.1.0
there
will
be new name
for it = $_FILES .This array will be global, so there is no need
to
