You could try chown user:group, where user and group are those apache runs in. Is this script running on your own machine, or on a web server hosted somewhere?

[PHP] Redirect after download
I am writing a file download system and I need to be able to do a
redirect after the download is finished.
Basically, the user will be presented with a simple HTML page that
contains a link to download the file (href=/download.php?fileid=143).
I have the code to send the file working just fine, but I can not figure
out how to do a redirect after the download is complete. I have spent
the last hour searching the archives, and the closest I have found is:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalm=106128750620349w=2
But I can't seem to find a way to actually do a Location style
redirect. Even static HTML does not display the way one would expect.
Using a small text file to download, I can view source from NS and see
the everything that was sent to the browser, and everything is there
(the ---Boundary(s), the text file, and the simple HTML line).
So my question is: How can I perform a redirect after the file has been
sent.
Thanks,
Justin

How about go directly to the site where you want to locate and make there the
file downloadable... ?

Re: [PHP] Redirect after download
have you considered attempting to use
header(Location: .$URL);
where $URL contains the URL AFTER putting
ob_start(); at the top of the php file?

[PHP] uploading 'large' files (e.g. 6MB) - tmp_name is empty?..
Hi, When uploading 'large' files of (for example 6MB) I have a problem that after uploading to the tmp folder on the server (so when the php script is called), the tmp_name in the FILES global is empty. So this means I can't do a move uploaded file because I don't know where the tmp file is. Any idea why php 'resets' the tmp_name when uploading large files (aka when uploading just takes a minute or two). Thanks in advance!!

Re: [PHP] Header's download
Hello.

So I want to give an administrator the rights to choose what to export. My problem is that when I include the php file download.php, the HTML\JAVA code are written to the file. download.php are containing the headers. All the export data are written to the file, but also HTML\JAVA. How can I get around this problem? I would be very happy if someone has a solution.

[PHP] transparant session propagation and headers
hi all, If a client doen't accept cookies and transparant session propagation is enabled, links are changed to include the SID. But this is not the case while redirecting clients. This results in session loss unless you manually add the session id to the redirect url. Not really transparant... I was wondering if this is correct behavior or a bug in php. currently this happens for sure with os x server php 4.3.2 - 4.3.9, but i have seen it before... bas -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Referencing Multi Dimensional Arrays
Hi, I've kind of solved this question already using recursion but I recon (in the grand tradition) that someone has a better solution! I have an multi dimensional array that is of variable depth, a snippet is shown below. The problem is that I don't know how deep the array goes as any entry can contain further entries which can contain further entries and as the array grows the data is increasingly unknown. My first thought was to use variable variables but the following doesn't work: $Network = array(--as-below--); $MyKey = [allocations][network][0]; print $Network[$$MyKey]; Now the obvious use of print $Network[$$key1][$$key2]; won't work for me as sometimes I need to be two layers deep and other times five. As I mentioned I've solved this problem using recursive functions but it's all a bit nasty. I've knicked various functions from the php site to search multi-dimensional arrays and can return myself an array of keys leading to the item I'm after but I can't seem to use that array to reference the data! All/any solutions or pointers (no pun intended) welcome. Kind regards Matthew Array ( [allocations] = Array ( [network] = Array ( [0] = Array ( [address] = 10.0.0.0 [netbits] = 8 [name] = TEST [creationdate] = 20041124 [description] = Test Address Space [security] = Array ( [alloc] = intech [subnet] = intech [unalloc] = intech ) [free] = Array ( [0] = Array ( [netbits] = 9 [address] = 10.128.0.0 [creationdate] = 20041125 ) [1] = Array ( [netbits] = 10 [address] = 10.64.0.0 [creationdate] = 20041125 ) ) [network] = Array ( [0] = Array ( [address] = 10.0.0.0 [netbits] = 24 [name] = MAFFNET [creationdate] = 20041125 [security] = Array ( [alloc] = intech [subnet] = intech [unalloc] = intech ) [description] = A Test network [free] = Array ( [address] = 10.0.0.0 [netbits] = 24 [creationdate] = 20041125 ) ) ) ) ) ) This message has been checked for all known viruses by the CitC Virus Scanning Service powered by SkyLabs.

RE: [PHP] Referencing Multi Dimensional Arrays
lol, perhaps embedded a bit too deep in my pre-amble. My question is simply what's a good way to reference a given array entry when you don't know where it is or how deep the array is. I can do a multi dimensional array search and return an array of keys to locate the item, I then want to use that array of keys to be able to reference the data to perhaps do work on it ie: The array is a collection of network data that can consist of address allocation entries or other networks which can contain either more networks or allocations. I call my search function to locate a particular network which returns me an array of keys to locate that entry. I then want to pass that to another function to actually work on the data. I have a search function: $search_result = multi_array_search($net_array,needle); now search_result equals an array of keys to locate the needle, this is variable in count. Sometimes the array of keys is 3 entries other times 5, I want a way of taking those entries and being able to do something like: $net_array[multi-dimensional-key] = value; where sometimes it might be in longhand: $net_array[net1][net2][address1] or other times: $net_array[net1][address1] but you don't know how deep you're going until the search returns you the keys.

Where's the code? T_* errors are parse-errors. Basically, the parser checks (parses) the syntax before running the script, during this parsing, the parser might find a syntax error. All those T_* parts stand for specific keywords/parts of the PHP syntax. When the parser tells you it found an unexpected T_STRING, it means that the parser found a string where it doesn't expect one. Same thing for eg T_ELSE (an else statement where one shouldn't be). -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Certainly a lot clearer.
The only (easy) method I can think of is to use eval(), something like:
$MyKey = [allocations][network][0];
$MyKey = '$net_array' . $MyKey;
eval(\$val = $MyKey;);
print_r($val);
Another more messy method would be to use something like preg_match_all() to
grab the individual array keys, ie 'allocations', 'network', '0' then:
switch (number of indices) {
case 1 :
$val = $net_array[$idx1];
break;
case 2 :
$val = $net_array[$idx1][$idx2];
break;

[PHP] protecting class/include files
Hello All, I am looking for some advice on how to keep my class files protected. Here is the situation. We have a web system we have built that all of our clients use. Now each client has php files that include our classes. The classes are stored in a common folder. This folder is read accessible by all our clients so that their php files can include the classes. However our problem is that while we want to give our clients php include access to our classes, we do NOT want to them to be able to actually have access to our source code. For most of our clients this isn't a problem as they are not technical enough. However we do have a few savvy clients who might just decide to do a show_source or an fopen of the include files and steal our source code. I have looked around at a few of the encoders on the market and was wondering if that was my only option? Am I missing something simply with permissions or what not that would prevent users from viewing the source code of our class files? Thanks for your help!

If PHP can read the files, then PHP can read the files. That is a tautology. Thus, by definition, they can show_source or fopen the files. You can encode the files with one of the products you found, but you should also copyright your work, and have your clients sign an agreement that makes it VERY clear they should not use your proprietary code.

Re: [PHP] Upload is not working ( Permission Problem), I tried a number of ways , still no success!!!!!
The directory folder where you upload the file(s) and folder(s) inito must have the ownership of Apache and the permission of 755. Then you'll have no trouble uploading file(s)/folder(s) into it since Apache would have the permission to create the file(s)/folder(s) where none exist or update them only if the file(s)/folder(s) was created by Apache in the past. If those file(s)/folder(s) weren't created by Apache but by you or someone then it wouldn't work because the ownership would be different, you'll need to change the ownership and permission to what Apache can use. This is from what I had noticed and had no trouble with them since then. When I move the files from 1 webserver to another, I alway check the ownership and correct it if it is wrong the first time.

The code formatting provided by another poster doesn't seem all that better to me than the original. YMMV. Then, a minor nit with the original poster: Dude, you chopped out the line number from the error message. That would pretty much have made it possible to determine what was going wrong, maybe. You probably left out a ']' somewhere, which is exactly what PHP is complaining about. It's also possible a missing quote or apostrophe in an EARLIER line is the real problem, and the code you posted, on its own, is 100% correct. Finally, to all newbie PHP coders.

[PHP] [PHP-WIN] filectime problems
I'm running PHP 5.0.2 on IIS 6/Windows Server 2003. Below is a snippet of
the code from a script that looks into the news directory for files ending
in .txt. After it finds the files, I want to get the creation time of each
file. The script finds all the files (in this case blah.txt, but
filectime gives me an error:
Warning: filectime() [function.filectime]: stat failed for blah.txt in...

$dir = ../news/;
$dh = opendir($dir);
while (($filename = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
if (strpos($filename, .txt)) {
$time = filectime($filename);

Any ideas why? The user that the webserver runs as, has full permissions to
the news directory, and all the files in it.

Recursion and http://php.net/is_array is probably the most clear-cut solution. If you are concerned that the arrays could become *S* deep and huge that rrecursion will blow up the stack, then most times you can take your straight-forward recursive algorithm, and convert it to an almost-as-straight-forward iterative algorithm. In fact, it's been proven that any tail recursion can be converted to iteration. Some terminology that may be meaningless to the Reader, loosely translated into English, partly for the amusement of Readers who do understand this terminology: blow up the stack - a function that calls itself so often that it ends up eating up the whole computer in a fit of self-indulgent gorging on its own beautiful voice. tail recursion - recursion where the function call to recurse is at the tail end of the function -- the last line, not counting closing brackets. iterative - a simple for or while loop PS The real solution may be to not store your data in that manner, as it clearly is giving you trouble... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] classes and variable scope

echo $some_global_variable;
}
Function set_global () {
$some_global_variable = abcd;
echo $some_global_variable;

The first echo statement (the one inside the set_global function) prints
abcd, but the second prints nothing. How can I set the value of
$some_global_variable inside the set_global function so that it sticks?
I'm using PHP 4.3.3.

Re: [PHP] constructing class
Lorderon wrote:
I want to create an instance of a class and construct it with different
params. The class name is a variable and the params change in each class.
Is
there a way to pass params to the constructor of a class like you pass
params in the function call_user_func_array() ?
PHP has built-in functions for constructor (and destructor in 5 (4.x?)).
I don't think they take any arguments, however.
You could write your own function, such as:
$object = build('className', array('var1'='val1', 'var2'='val2'));
function build($class, $fields){
$result = new $class();
while (list($k, $v) = each($fields)){
$result-$k = $v;
}
}
There are also, in PHP 5, some nifty new setter and getter functions,
so that you can write $result-$k($v) if that makes you feel better, or if
you *NEED* to have the object call complex functions when the values are
initialized.
Hope that helps.
For sure, the eval solution is pretty grungy and will give you headaches
sooner or later. Or both sooner and later.

Re: [PHP] transparant session propagation and headers
If a client doen't accept cookies and transparant session propagation is enabled, links are changed to include the SID. But this is not the case while redirecting clients. This results in session loss unless you manually add the session id to the redirect url. Not really transparant... I was wondering if this is correct behavior or a bug in php. Feature. There's no way PHP can know if you are re-directing to something where you want the sesssion propogated or not. [soapbox] Onee really shouldn't have *THAT* many redirects in one's code. Redirects were designed as part of the HTTP protocol for documents which *moved* from one Universal Resource Locater (URL) to another, to allow for the fact that sometimes documents have to be moved, and that Universal is not really really really Universal for all time. Using Redirect as a programming construct, in place of if/else/require etc is just Bad Programming. I realize a zillion programmers do it. I even was guilty of it myself in my early days of PHP programming. Because it worked. But it really makes code hard to read, hard to debug, and hard to follow in its logic. If you are using header(Location: ) as an error-trapping mechanism, or instead of if/else and a require to factor your code, re-think your Design. The hair you save may be your own.

Probably best to use 'sudo' in the shell to make the script run with the rights of the user you want, or some similar shell-action. You may also want to examine the Apache 2 directives that let a Module (EG PHP) run as a specific user under certain circumstances. I have not investigated this avenue myself, but would surmise that you could restrict this to a specific script in a specific directory, and could give over the PHP thread to be run by some special user. While I'm not certain, I'd be willing to bet cold hard cash that doing this and using root as that special user is a REALLY BAD IDEA. You'd need to set up a new user with *JUST* enough permission on the system to do the bare minimum of what you need that user to do to get the task accomplished. If, however, you are stuck on a server where you don't HAVE access to a shell and/or httpd.conf... Well, first, start looking for a new host where you DO have access to a shell, at least. In the meantime, you can sometimes do like this: exec(echo _password_ | command $arg1 $arg2); Note, however, that su itself specifically prohibits doing this from a non TTY shell (EG from PHP) to prevent you from doing this inherently very dangerous action. Also note that depending on the version of PHP and other factors I never quite figured out back in the day (PHP 3 PHP 4) sometimes stdout/stdin were bound up by PHP and sometimes not, so that the shell echo and | trick would only work on some versions/servers. Some PHP Developers claimed this was simply not true, however, despite my experience.

Example: Bad guy decides your server would be a nice place to upload not a worksheet, but his latest cracked video game or highly-popular software package or, ahem, graphic images. Then *your* server becomes a free source of illegal content, or content you are not in the business of hosting. That's bad.

RE: [PHP] Date Manipulation
As was already mentioned, mktime() and strtotime() both return a serial date. I use mktime() a lot to add/subtract days and such. It automatically compensates for leap days and all that. Example: ?php $month = 1; $day = 31; $year = 2004; $serialdate = mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day + 1,$year); echo date(m/d/Y, $serialdate); ? This should output 2/1/2004 (unless I made a typo). The initial 0,0,0 are the hour, minute, second. It works equally well with any numbers you give it for any of those values and if you throw it back into the date() function, you can format the outputted date however you want. I know mktime and strtotime were already mentioned, but I think examples help too so pardon me for expanding on it. -TG -Original Message- From: Christopher Weaver [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 30, 2004 9:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Date Manipulation I've looked at the date functions in the manual but can't find what I need.

RE: [PHP] Custom Open Tags
I think there's a way to redefine what tag PHP uses, but I think it globally resets it. I don't think you can say use !blah ! and also use ?php ?. I think that setting is in PHP.INI somewhere. It might be easier to change your to be executed later php tags to something else and before it's sent to it's final destination, do a string replace to change the tags. If you have two different servers, you might go into PHP.INI and set the following tag on the last server and turn it OFF on the first server: ; Allow ASP-style % % tags. asp_tags = Off I'm not sure, but that may allow you to use ?php ? AND % % tags at the same time. All in all, I think I'd try to find a better way than using two kinds of tags and trying to jury-rig PHP to only execute some of it. Even if it meant using a conditional on the tags to be executed later if (!$finalexecute) ... and just change that value at the top of your code or something.

//Untested code:

while (list(, $part) = each($parts)){
$phphtml = explode('mytag?', $part);
$php = $phphtml[0];
$html = @$phphtml[1]; //File may end with mytag? so squash error
$result .= eval($php);
$result .= $html;
}
//Dump $result into some file somewhere...

[PHP] Page that checks if a user exists on a remote system

ServerB to find out if a users exists and if not then add that user to
ServerB with information collected from the web page on ServerA.

}
When I access the page I get:
Could not create directory '/nonexistent/.ssh'.
Host key verification failed.
This, of course, is because the script is being run as www who has no
place to put ssl keys.
Could this be solved by having www su to a user who has remote access
privileges? Something like this:
$idResults = `su admin | ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] id bigbob 21`;

Re: [PHP] Date Manipulation
* Christopher Weaver [EMAIL PROTECTED]: This code: echo strtotime(now); echo mktime(Ymd, strtotime(now)); is producing this result: 1101945775 Warning: mktime(): Windows does not support negative values for this function ... -1 What am I doing wrong? Using the wrong function, or providing the wrong arguments. From the arguments you're giving mktime, I suspect you actually want date(), which would yield a string in the format 'YYYMMDD'.

RE: [PHP] Go Back Problem
If your php form is entered via a post, my experience is that most browsers do not save post information, therefore, clicking back to a page that was entered via a form using the post method, the browser complains that it does not have enough information to display the form, and that you must retry or something like that. I have found that the simplest way to avoid this is divide each page into two php routines. Displaypage.php will check in session data for contents for the form, or fetch the information from the database, then it will format the html for the page with values from session variables or from the database. The action field of this form will specify the postform.php routine below. Postform.php will perform all validations and echo nothing to the browser. It will then either update session data or post the valid data to the database. The only output of this routine is a header sending the browser back to the previous module displaypage.php when it has done all it can. Notice that anytime you use a header to redirect the browser you can send variables if you need to via the URL parameter list ?var1=1var2=2 string (they show up in the $_GET array). These variables are saved by all browsers that I know about, which means your displaypage.php program is never entered via a post (and always via a get), and because the redirect comes from the postform.php page, the postform.php module is removed from the browser history list by the redirect. This means that every click of the back button, or JavaScript history reference (-1) will take you back to the previous entry in the history list and if you are consistent, none of them will have been entered via a form post (i.e. no complaints). Hope this was clearer than mud, good luck.

[PHP] Organisation of classes

Save each class into its own name.class.php file.
As for the includes, if there are a lot of classes and you actually need
_all_ of them loaded, then just make one include.php that includes all
of the class files and then just add include('include.php') into each
script that needs these classes.
You should really take a look at what classes need to be loaded in each
page, though. If you have 10 classes, but a page only uses 3 of them,
then it's a waste of time to load those other 7 classes. That's
basically what you're doing now with everything in one file.
Think about using extra classes that load the others that are needed for
specific functios. Load a show class that'll load 4 of the 10 classes
needed for showing records, load an edit class that'll load 7 of the
10 classes needed for editing, etc...

Yes. In PHP5, you can register an '__autoload()' function at the
beginning of your script, and in there map class names to files. To
further automate things, you could always put the __autoload() function
into a file and then set the php.ini 'auto_prepend_file' directive to
load this file -- that way you wouldn't need to worry about defining it
at the beginning of each script.
As an old java programmer I feel that PHP is not that well deveolped. Was

PHP and Java are very different beasts. PHP is dynamically typed and has
a very flexible, dynamic runtime environment. One reason is to allow
scripts to define their own environment -- doing so makes it very easy
to drastically change the behaviour of a script simply by placing it in
a different location. (This can also open a can of worms, but if
developed right, this can be very powerful.)
However, if you're looking for consistency of behaviour, it's possible
to do that with PHP as well; you simply have to be a little more
rigorous about setting up your environment.
