Hey all -
I'm using mcrypt to store credit cards into MySQL. About 90%

character that appears in about 10% of my encryptions that's
not being encoded properly???
Can you come up with a phony CC number that fails the
decryption? If so, please post:
$cc_number
binhex($iv)
binhex($cc_encrypt)
binhex($row['encrypt_iv']))
binhex($row['cc_encrypt']))
More below...
// Encryption is set up at the top of the script:
$crypto = mcrypt_module_open('rijndael-256', '', 'ofb', '');
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv(mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size($crypto), MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);
$ks = mcrypt_enc_get_key_size($crypto);
$key = substr(md5('my_funky_term'), 0, $ks);
// When the card number is collected by the form, it's encrypted:
$cc_number = addslashes($_POST['cc_number']);
mcrypt_generic_init($crypto, $key, $iv);
$cc_encrypt = mcrypt_generic($crypto, $cc_number);
mcrypt_generic_deinit($crypto);
// This is written to the database:
$query = update accounts set cc_encrypt='$cc_encrypt', encrypt_iv='$iv',
other_fields='$other_stuff' where id='$account_id' limit 1;
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
No mysql_real_escape_string()?
Both the cc_encrypt and encrypt_iv fields are tinytext, latin1_swedish_ci,
MyISAM, MySQL 5.0.91
Why are you using text fields for storing binary data?
Sounds like this could go horribly wrong for a number
or reasons.
In another script, when I retrieve, I first set it up at the top of the
script exactly like step #1 above, then retrieve it like this:
mcrypt_generic_init($crypto, $key, $row['encrypt_iv']);
$cc_number = trim(mdecrypt_generic($crypto, $row['cc_encrypt']));
mcrypt_generic_deinit($crypto);

Considering their is no validation of the credit card number, you
could just use a random string of numbers starting with 99.
According to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Bank_Identification_Numbers#References,
nothing starts with 99.

Re: [PHP] Re: Help! Made a boo-boo encrypting credit cards
Maybe I missed something here, but aren't the cc's held by the merchant account provider, and just an id by you to recharge(recurring or once), which can be disputed. I ask because it's been a while since I had to look at this. So let the OP's question take precedence, and mine secondary if necessary, if not then I'l move it to another post. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Never heard of it -- what Nation? Perhaps not the correct expression, but most non-English languages have their own alphabets, and despite some countries sharing a language, what they allow for domain name registration isn't always the same (ref. Michelle Konzacks earlier posting). For instance, while 'ï' is used in Dutch, English, and French (I believe), it is not used in Danish, so it is not allowed in Danish domain names.

No, only the Greek alphabet which probably is used in Greece and Cyprus only. In addition, many registrars are clueless about IDNS, Char Sets, and what is legal and not. Not in my experience.

While I can send/receive (square root) through my email program (Eudora) what your email program displays to you can be (as shown) something completely different. The mapping of the code-points (i.e., square-root) to what your program displays (much like a web site) depends upon how your email program works. If your email program has the correct Char Set and will map it to the what was actually received, then the character will be displayed correctly. If not, then things like .com happen. Unfortunately, this mapping problem has not been of great importance for most applications. As it is now, most applications work for English speaking people and that seems good enough, or so many manufactures think. However, as the rest of the world starts using applications (and logging on to the net) it will obviously become more advantageous for manufactures to make their software work correctly for other-than-English languages. Apple is doing that and last year the majority of their income came from overseas (i.e., other than USA). The mapping of other than English characters was the problem addressed by the IDNS WG, where I added my minor contribution circa 2000. Unfortunately, homographic issues were not resolved by the WG. However, a solution was proposed (I entitled as the Fruit-loop solution) which was to color-code (flag) the characters in the address bar of a browser IF the URL contained a mixed Char Set. Unfortunately, that solution was not pursued and instead Browser manufactures choose to show raw PUNYCODE, which was never intended to be seen by the end users. A giant step backwards IMO.

As such, we were allowed to register IDNS domain names on a trial basis. The conditions of the trial were that we could register any IDNS we wanted (at $100 a pop) and if at anytime over the following year our names caused problems, then we would forfeit our names without compensation. In short, a $100 per-name bet! At that time, I registered almost 30 names. Fortunately, all of my names passed and I was permitted to keep them. Unfortunately, all browser manufactures (except Safari) negated some of the work done by the IDNS WG and as a result PUNYCODE is shown instead of the actual characters intended. I continue to hold on to my domain names because I believe that the PUNYCODE problem will be resolved someday and my single character domain names will be valuable. Please realize that single character ASCII characters are estimated to sell for over a million dollars each -- you may want to review this: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/11/28/tech/main1080245.shtml In any event, this is out of the main stream of PHP. However, it should just be noted that Unicode characters, which started this thread, are very involved and many software manufactures are not implementing solutions correctly. In contrast, the PHP community has provided numerous Multibyte String Functions (mb_) for dealing with Unicode. So, our PHP applications can correctly deal with what Unicode provides that are far exceed simple ASCII.

It works really well.

Re: [PHP] Re: help on using 'request_uri' to make a front-end site
The thing that would help here is if I could get a reliable way to extract the working 'path' (from an http:// pov) from the $_SERVER array somehow. Each of them gives a result tantalizingly close to the base, but they get it wrong in various ways. You can use $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] which will give you the path to the script or $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] (you will probably have to remove the query string with this), along with either dirname(). -- Richard Heyes Employ me: http://www.phpguru.org/cv -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The problem is that the URL does not stay constant, it keeps growing. For
example after clicking between home and use1 a few times I see these values,
note how index.php repeats:
'REQUEST_URI':/~donn/template-dev/routertest/index.php/index.php/home
dirname('REQUEST_URI'):/~donn/template-dev/routertest/index.php/index.php
I suppose some kind of htaccess voodoo could help here, but I am in no shape
to grok those murky waters.
A link a href=index.php/use1 causes 'index.php/use1' to be appended to the
full url [http://localhost/~donn/template-dev/routertest/] and at first, it's
fine but after a few clicks, it keeps appending. Amazingly things still work,
but the URL is out of control!
All I can think to use to enforce correct link behaviour is to employ absolute
urls.

a much safer technique is to restrict the options on the input and define a

has expectations based upon those restrictions:

$addComponents = explode('+', $stringWAddition);

When your PHP script does curl it does not interact in any way,

That's kinda the whole POINT of curl, to be able to snarf down content

If you just want to send the user off to Google's site, you can skip

I have tried with higher versions of openssl, zlib and curl but get

Kindly suggest some workaround.

From the PHP docs:
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION (integer)
This constant is not available when opendbase_dir or safe_mode
are enabled.
Do you have openbase_dir or safe_mode on?

Re: [PHP] Re: help with multi dimensional arrays
Hello Everyone, I have a problem with GET strings. I use $_SERVER[REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING] to get the value-pairs in the URL. The problem is that there is a cID variable that keeps amending itself to the string continuously everytime someone clicks on a different category link on the website. For example, instead of this: http://www.someexample.com/admin/index.html?cID=42somevar=valuesomevar2=value2 it keeps amending another cID to it everytime it goes to a different link, like this: http://www.someexample.com/admin/index.html?cID=42cID=39cID=44cID=37somevar=valuesomevar2=value2 I know that this is happening because I'm amending it with the dot (.) but is there a way to just inject a single cID and still have the rest of the values available? Something built into PHP, maybe a different predefined variable I don't know about? Or, do I have to make a complex function to separate each out and then put it back together again like humpty dumpty? Is there an easier way to do this and still have a single cID variable in the GET string? Thanks in advance to anyone that contributes, I really appreciate everyone's effort on this list in the past. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Re: Help with the php bug in the Squirrelmail plugin's script
Hi I'd like to ask you for the help I'm using Squirellmail with plugin Shared calendar. This is simple nice plugin written by Paul Lesniewski But I found the bug in this plugin. The bug seems to be related with variable and memory. The scripts are really slow and sometimes takes 20-30 seconds under some conditions. Unfortunately Paul is busy and has no time to examine it. Just told me that it seems like there is a problem in that all files are inspected even when it just needs to look for one file. I found out what caused this delay and what action but I'm not good programmer therefore I cannot repair it by myself Can anybody look at this plugin and bug ? I can provide more information Can anybody give me some advice how to proceed? You should post AS MUCH information as you have, that way someone can look at it and decide if it is something they can do right away. So I hope this can tells more The plugin is using file backend for user calendar data. The structure is simple: data_dir | | calendar_data | | private_calendars | | | |- iCal files containing only calendar info | for user personal calendars | | public_calendars | | | |- iCal files containing only calendar info | for public calendars Problem is with files stored in the private calendars folder. There are files related to users. In my case there is thousands files. When I deleted this files plugin run without any problem. When the count of files is increasing it's getting worst Here is the answer from Paul: seems like there is a problem in that all users are inspected even when it just needs to look for one user When user files has increased the scripts stopped running and I got error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 128bytes) I had to increased memory_limit = 64M in php.ini but this is temporaly solution that force the plugin to work So it seems there is problem with variable $calId that is responsible for unique names of the private calendars But I cannot redefine it or change it I think it is necessary to install this plugin with SM Thanks a lot PEt -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi.
I need help with matching a variable. The variable would be e.g. 0-15
, 16-30 etc. and when the variable is equal to a certain range, it
would echo an image.
Does anyone know what function I should use? preg_match?
The code would be something like
if(preg_match([16-30],$variable))
{
echo image;
}
but the above code doesn't work. How do I fix it?

Re: [PHP] Re: Help with some clever bit operations
Niels schrieb: The problem: A function tries to update an existing value, but is only allowed to write certain bits. There are 3 variables: A: the existing value, eg. 10110101 B: what the function wants to write, eg. 01011100 C: which bits the function is allowed to write, eg. With these examples, 1000 should be written. How do I combine A, B and C to get that result? 1) First, AND the mask with the value the function wants to write in order to suppress bits: 01011100 (B: value the function wants to write) (C: mask) 1100 (D: intermediate result) $D = $B $C; 2) Next, OR the above result with the existing value: 10110101 (A: existing value) | 1100 (D: B C) 1001 (E: final result) $E = $A | $D; Or, more succinctly: $E = $A | ($B $C); I love Boolean operations.

Something like sessionid CHAR|starttime DATETIME|lastvisittime DATETIME You could then update this table each time the user visits a page, and delete it if the interval between starttime and lastvisittime is longer than you want. A cron job/scheduled task could be used to clean this table up periodically a nice description of 'session garbage collection' :-) which is pretty much all you can do in terms of 'logoff'. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Uhmm, you could try some debugging of your own instead of relying on the list.
Liberally douse your code with print_r() and var_dump() of all your important

not.

Look at it carefully, you've got a multi-dimensional array. Element [30] contains an array (see below). Here's a tip, when using print_r(), wrap a pre tag around it: echo pre; // you may want to consider creating a print_r($var); // function for this echo /pre; That way you can see clearly the structure of any array that you print.

Hi Stuart
Not sure what's happening with the $Ind variable, maybe check the $_POST
array as you enter the script to ensure that the form is passing the data
correctly. It is almost as if you are appending it to itself at some point.
You don't have a line like this anywhere do you : $Ind[] = $Ind; OR maybe 2
of: $Ind[] = $_POST['Ind']; ??
Part of the problem is with the implode statement. It is this that is not
adding the initial and final ' to your IN statement, see below:
if (count($Ind) 0)
{
$IndStr = implode(',', $Ind);
$where[] = VendorJobs.Industry IN('$IndStr');
^---^
}else{
$where[] = VendorJobs.Industry = {$Ind[0]};
}
I would also remove this line:
$Ind[] = ;

I think it's working , at least I get results now with
no error messages. Still some work to go on the
script. Here is the current initializatin and sql
code:
$Ind = $HTTP_POST_VARS['Ind'];
if (count($Ind) 0 AND is_array($Ind)) {
$s_Ind = '.implode(',', $Ind).';
}
I guess here I should put this in braces as it should
be conditional if $Ind is set, if not the subsequent
sql statement shouldn't go in.
if ($Ind)
$sql .= WHERE VendorJobs.Industry IN ($s_Ind);

I think you're implode example is pretty close.
?php
$Ind = ;
$Ind = $_POST['Ind'];
if(is_array($Ind)
{
if (count($Ind) 1)
{
$IndStr = implode(',', $Ind);
$where[] = vendorjobs.Industry IN($IndStr);
}else{
$where[] = vendorjobs.Industry = {$Ind[0]};
}else{
// Is there an error if not an array?
}
$sql = 'SELECT ...
FROM vendorjobs
WHERE ' . implode( ' AND ', $where );
?
Not sure if you need the {} above, I think you do as it's an array reference
in a string.
This should result in:
WHERE vendorjobs.Industry IN (2,3,5)
OR
WHERE vendorjobs.Industry = 2

What I meant was that the $sql variable should contain a where clause of WHERE vendorjobs.Industry IN (2,3,5) if you had a multi-element array or WHERE vendorjobs.Industry = 2 if you had a single-element array. The IN statement is easier to construct than multiple ORs and tends to run faster as well.

Re: [PHP] Re: Help with Regular Expressions
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all, I am working on a small php script which should do the following. I want all the links in the page to be preceded by first character and first two characters of the link.Please look into the example below for more clarification. eg. a href=/code.htmllink here/a to be replaced as a href=/c/co/code.htmllink here/a I guess, this is possible by using regular expressions but I am not able to crack the right expression. Hi, This is not very simple. The URI which in your example is /code.html can be anything, including something like m.html. In that case which would be the first 2 letters? Or, the URI can be something like m-like.html. In this case the first 2 letters will be m- or ml? A good regular expression should work in all situations so it is important to know what is the desired result, and not to asume that there won't be any links like /.html or something worse.

You can use the following function:
function FormatUrl($url)
{
if (eregi(www, $url))
$result = http://$url;;
else
$result = http://www.$url;;
return $result;
}
You can test it using:
$test1 = FormatUrl(google.com);
$test2 = FormatUrl(www.google.com);
print test1 = $test1br;
print test2 = $test2br;
And this will give you the results:
test1 = http://www.google.com
test2 = http://www.google.com
Good luck!

Re: [PHP] Re: help with mysql
My honest advice, dont use rpm's, you need to compile php via source if you
want to do anything out of the ordinary like adding extensions, yes adding
mysql is out of the ordinary for a standard rpm lol. Thats just my
experience anyway.
so ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql or whereever you put it
Martin,
Thank you for the insight when I ran the php file you suggested,
nothing appeared to be related to mysql. I installed both the php and
mysql packages onto my Linux box through a rpm installer. Where can I
obtain mysql support for php?

line 16: mysql_connect(tflood, thomas91);
I think you mean: mysql_connect(localhost, tflood, thomas91);
otherwise mysql_connect takes tflood as Server and thomas91 as
Username (if so, its better to replace passwords with * before
posting)
- http://ch.php.net/mysql_connect
after connecting you need to choose a database, e.g.
line 17: mysql_select_db(databasename);
also make sure that the mysql-extension is installed and loaded. to
check this, create a textfile phpinfo.php with this content: ?
phpinfo();
?
check the output for information about mysql

This is technically invalid for PHP -- all your form field names should conform to the rules for PHP variable names, so it would be better to use name=q1, name=q2, etc. The reason is that if you were to turn register_globals on, PHP would try to create global variables using your field names, and $1, $2, etc. are not valid variables. Whilst PHP *may* get this right if you have register_globals turned off, there is no absolute guarantee that $_POST['1'] etc. will be handled correctly. Cheers!

Re: [PHP] RE: help with explode.....
The threading is messed up on this message, so sorry for the top post.
Actually, the method that Shaunak gave is the best method to use. If you
took your questions and had them formatted from this:
pWhat color are you eyes?br
blockquote
input type=radio name=9 value=5Bluebr
input type=radio name=9 value=7Greenbr
/blockquote/p
to this:
pWhat color are you eyes?br
blockquote
input type=radio name=q[9] value=5Bluebr
input type=radio name=q[9] value=7Greenbr
/blockquote/p
You now have all of your questionIDs and answerIDs in the $_POST['q'] array.
foreach($_POST['q'] as $questionID = $answerID)
{
$query = INSERT INTO answers (questionID, answerID) VALUES
('$questionID','$answerID');
}
Throw in some validation, of course, and then you're done. How much
easier can it be?
This is what I do in my survey system. You can see a demo at
http://sepodati.realxl.net/ The admin password is just password.

The name of the set of radio buttons is the QuestionID (so it's a
number)... And the options are the AnswerID (they are also numbers)...
In that case, I assume your code looks something like this:
input type=radio name=?=$QuestionID?...
How about using an array instead of just the QuestionID as shown below:
input type=radio name=Question[?=$QuestionID?...
That way, on the next page (the one to which this form is being
submitted) you can get the AnswerIDs by simply looping through the
$_POST[Question] array (assuming your form submission method is post).
Hope that made sense.

Why are you using $_POST[]? I thought you had to use $_POST['']. I
always use '' instead of and it always works. Is it just
me? Can one
really use double quotes?
Of course you can -- it's just a string! The difference, as with all
strings, is in whether you want variable names to be interpolated or not.
Consider:
$num = 3;
$array = array('var 3'='Interpolated!', 'var $nuum'='Not
Interpolated');
echo $array['var $num'];// = Not Interpolated
echo $array[var $num];// = Interpolated!
echo $array['var '.$num]; // = Interpolated!
Of course, an arrray subscript can be any expression, so to go to extremes I
could even do something like:
$x = 1;
$y = 2;
$a = 'a';
echo $array['v'.$a.r .($x+$y)]; // = Interpolated!
Cheers!

I have corrected the typo and had hoped this was a simple solution, yet $_POST still doesn't work. Any ideas?

First, please respond to the list, not me. Second, I'm not asking the question, David Scott is. Third, I don't use either; I use ' ' - Original Message - From: Victor [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Rick Emery' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 1:49 PM Subject: RE: [PHP] Re: Help please: Unable to get $_POST[variable]; to work in a form. Why are you using $_POST[]? I thought you had to use $_POST['']. I always use '' instead of and it always works. Is it just me? Can one really use double quotes? -Original Message- From: Rick Emery [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 2:05 PM To: Subject: Fw: [PHP] Re: Help please: Unable to get $_POST[variable]; to work in a form. What version of PHP are you using? I believe that anything earlier than 4.05 does not support $_POST. Did you try $HTTP_POST_VARS['name']? This will work, regardless of version. - Original Message - From: David Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 12:54 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] Re: Help please: Unable to get $_POST[variable]; to work in a form.
