Fwd: [PHP] Problems with Zip+IE6
Apologies... forgot to CC to the list... -- Forwarded message -- From: Javier Ruiz [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Dec 18, 2006 11:25 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] Problems with Zip+IE6 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, Nah, the only thing I'm trying to do is to serve a regular zip file to the user of the app I'm coding, I could just put the file in an accesible folderand provide the link to the user (when I say accesible I mean inside the docroot of apache), but I really want the files (those zip files) to be available to the user ONLY if he's logged in and in a session with some background stuff... I did this a houndred times and really never realized about this problem with IE, I'm a linux user (Gentoo :-D ) since years ago and always used mozilla and/or firefox, but the users of the application I'm making now use IE, so they reported the problem thinking that it is related to our code. Ah! And it really doesn't matter what software you have to work with zip files, the problem is before that software: The concrete problem I found is that when you click on a zip file link in IE, it asks you to choose: open it or save it, the only difference between both operations is that if you say save it it will download the zip file to a temp folder and then move it to the directory you specify; if you say open, it SHOULD download it to the temp folder and then call the application you have for zip files (winzip, winrar, whatever) with the location of the file in the temp folder. I think all the browsers works more or less the same way. The problem with IE is that saying open it just doesn't download the file, but opens anyway the zip application with the temp file location, so the application (and not IE) complains that the requested location is not existing, in my case, WinRar... Indeed it matters the content-type to use with files in webpages! and as I mentioned before, I like your article because it's just pointing it, but I'm just trying to find out if anybody, doing any trick (dirty trick even) got the temporally download problem solved anyhow, and I'm trying whatever to get it. But unfortunatelly as much as I'm searching, I'm more realizing that this is an unsolvable bug in IE and I'll have to ask my client to please, you will have to always download the zip files before opening them, or change your habits and use another browser. It's a recognised IE bug, it's not a PHP's mistake, not a coding mistake (by me I mean) but sincerelly, and I'll say it like it is... it's a pain in the ass! I appreciate Richard for your efforts, thanks a lot. Regards, Javi Ruiz.

I tried playing a bit with the Content-type, but it seems that Internet Explorer doesn't really care about Content-type... it uses the extention of the file to determine the type (microsoft's way...) so it doesn't matter if I use application/octet-stream or even application/force-download or application/makethisdownload-or-ikillyou :-D as long as I name the file whatever.zip, IE6 shows the open with dialog and if I use open with an application, it fails :( It does matter on real browsers... Use the correct content type for a download: application/octet-stream thanks again Richard for the answer and for the article :) anybody with a miracle for the ZIP+IE problem?? You're going to HAVE to open the Zip file with some kind of unzip application such as WinZip, pkunzip, or, possibly, that goofball Windows unzip thingie that lets you pretend zip archives are directories, even though they aren't, but only up to a certain point, as you can't do some things with files in the zip archive that you can do with normal files, so it's just a very confusing Human Interface... Sort of like Windows in a microcosm. If you were hoping that somehow IE would magically unzip the item, and then let you open the contents within the zip file with a chosen application... Even MS Windows isn't THAT stupid. Yet. What if there are 2 things in the zip archive? For that matter, if there aren't 2 things, why is it even zipped? 1 - To change the mimetype (when writting http headers) from application/zip that I used before to application/x-zip-compressed 2 - To not use MOD_DEFLATE in apache2 (I was not using it really...) I now am beginning to wonder if you are trying to send your HTML as gzip'ed data for the browser to surf to your site, to save on bandwidth... If so, none of the above has any bearing on this at all... -- Some people have a gift link here. Know what I want?

[PHP] config error
Hi
I'm trying to get PHP to build and keep on getting an error:
configure: error: mysql configure failed. Please check config.log for
more information.
FWIW, I'm trying to install on Mac OS Server 10.3.9 with the
following options:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php5 --with-apxs --with-config-file-
scan-dir=/sw --with-iconv --with-zlib=/usr --with-zlib-dir=/usr --
with-gd --with-iconv-dir=/usr --with-snmp=/usr --enable-exif --enable-
wddx --enable-soap --enable-sqlite-utf8 --enable-ftp --enable-sockets
--enable-dbx --enable-dbase --enable-mbstring --enable-memory-limit --
enable-calendar --enable-bcmath --with-bz2=/usr --with-mysql=shared,/

dir=shared,/sw --with-xsl=shared,/sw --with-pdflib=shared,/sw --with-
jpeg-dir=/sw --with-png-dir=/sw --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-
json=shared --enable-memcache
I've installed various libraries (using fink, as you can see) but I'm
using the packaged version of MySQL available from mysql.com. The
tail end of the error log is included below the sig.
I've been mucking with this, on and off, for a couple of days now and
have pretty much exhausted efforts to install a pre-compiled version
of PHP (preferred route as I'm lazy). Also, I've tweaked the config
options which, at times, has added a new missing dependency but I
always come back to this MySQL issue.
If anyone's got any ideas, please let me know as I'm starting to run
out of things to try.
Many thanks

That way, when the user hits refresh it doesn't ask to resubmit the data. It just refreshes the display. I've never seen a good implementation of that style. If there's an error in the form submission then such implementations usually have a generic error message saying, please go back, or they then need to stuff th eentire post contents into a session var or favourite deity forbid, into the URL. It's almost certainly always better to submit to the same page and move along when the processing is done.

Might I suggest that you support several options?... A key priority is that they won't have much technical sophistication (probably no db experience or php experience). Offering more formats gives the partners more options to choose what suits their experience/needs/skills. Also, these would be third party sites so there would also be an issue of requirements (differnet xsl processors, no allow_url_fopen, etc...) Without allow_url_fopen(), you're down to curl or no PHP at all, with an iFrame or JS... I tried looking at sites that get their content on other sites to see how they do it: the possible solutions seem to be: 1. rss / xml - this is well known but would have a pretty high technical hurdles on the other sites. We could create every walk through and code sample but I still think it would be too involved. Only way out is either a xsl transformation (not going to happen), custom parsing library in php (maybe) or writing to db with associated libraries (too complex) You should probably provide your content as RSS, no matter what else you do, because it's so ubiquitous. Assuming your content is in a db, dumping out an RSS feed is pretty much a no-brainer, really. 2. serialized php with custom library - this seems more feasible than #1 in terms of requirements I don't even know what this means... 3. php proxy and ajax call / json - i think this would be too complex and would require too much manipulation of apache to handle subdomains, etc. I can sort of see where you are going, where they'd use Ajax to input the parameters of the content they want, but, really, just a well-designed GET and an iFrame or Ajax or whatever the partner wants to use to snarf and display the content is probably easier. 4. included javascript - kinda how digg handles syndication (see http://www.digg.com/add-digg for example). This would seem to be the lowest barrier to entry. The main concern is preventing unauthorized bots from crawling. It would seem our only option would be using the referer property but this could be forged relatively easily. It's very common to require a username/password in the URL for content partners. And you can require them to pre-register the IP of their server[s] that will be crawling for the content -- Only their servers need to access your content, not all their visitors' machines. So they are static IP and they should not have TOO many of them to register, even in a mutli-data-center setup. I worked for a content aggregator for awhile, and virtually all their content partners required a username/password in the URL, and we had to register the IPs of the servers that were getting the data. I suppose you could do a reverse DNS lookup and cache the results, but, really, it's easier to get the IP address up front. 5. SOAP - no way Again, if you have the db already, and if you have PHP5, this is actually not difficult at all to implement on your side. So maybe it only helps you get one more content partner (sale) that loves using SOAP instead of RSS or whatever. It's a pretty small investment on your side, for relatively good odds on payoff. It's a bit tougher in PHP4, though there are libraries out there that can take care of 99% of it. 6. REST - if meant to just mean xml, i see this as an extension of #1. Somewhere between #1 and #5, sort of. Same answer though. A PHP REST library and a couple hours of hacking and a couple days of serious development and a couple weeks of hard-core QA, and you're good to go. So I'm suggesting that you could support MOST of the above, probably with the same core set of functions and minimal effort for the output layers: RSS / XML SOAP REST You could also provide a nice CSS Zen Garden span/div only HTML output for an iframe so that a CSS hack could make decent output. Perhaps even a CSV or tab-delimited data dump for somebody who wants to store-and-forward the data. If you plan well, you could build the application so that you can roll out a new API layer every month or so, and not have to do *ALL* of them from the get-go, but always be in touch with your partners, bragging on yourself about how you now support XYZ and giving them more options and the warm fuzzies about how much you cater to them. -- Some people have a gift link here.

Re: [PHP] Clearing POST variable on page refresh
On Sun, December 17, 2006 4:59 pm, Beauford wrote:
I have a page with a form on it which posts to itself. The problem is
when
someone refreshes the page it enters the data into the DB again. How
do I
clear these variables so that doesn't happen. I tried the unset
function,
but no luck. I really don't want to use sessions or cookies as this is
just
a simple little page, but still, it has to 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.

Please read this: http://richardlynch.blogspot.com/ Go test with MORE browsers and MORE OSes, because you haven't yet hit the ones where your Content-Disposition does not work, and they are out there somewhere. As if it mattered that much. The filename's just a hint, the browser can be configured to ignore it even if it understands it, whatever. I would even say you're bound to hit a browser configured for some unintelligent reason to handle all app/o-s files with winamp. So what? You cannot count on anything the UA will/not do to the content. If the browser ignores application/octet-stream and doesn't do a download, it's broken. It *HAS* to prompt you for a filename and do a download, by the original HTTP RFC spec. Please read more RFCs until you find the one about application/octet-stream If the UA opens up application/octet-stream it is in direct violation of one of the few HTTP standards that every other UA on the planet actually honors! A standard that is clear-cut, with no wiggle room for mis-interpretation whatsoever. What filename will any sane browser use for: http://example.com/dir1/dir2/iwant.xyz BTW, the 1995 johnny-come-lately Microsoft made-up Content-disposition header has been proposed for MIME by Qualcomm (RFC1806, RFC2183). HTTP/1.1 (RFC2616) says: 15.5 Content-Disposition Issues: RFC 1806 [35], from which the often implemented Content-Disposition (see section 19.5.1) header in HTTP is derived, has a number of very serious security considerations. Content-Disposition is not part of the HTTP standard, but since it is widely implemented, we are documenting its use and risks for implementors. See RFC 2183 [49] (which updates RFC 1806) for details. [...] 19.5.1 Content-Disposition The Content-Disposition response-header field has been proposed as a means for the origin server to suggest a default filename if the user requests that the content is saved to a file. This usage is derived from the definition of Content-Disposition in RFC 1806 [35]. content-disposition = Content-Disposition : disposition-type *( ; disposition-parm ) disposition-type = attachment | disp-extension-token disposition-parm = filename-parm | disp-extension-parm filename-parm = filename = quoted-string disp-extension-token = token disp-extension-parm = token = ( token | quoted-string ) An example is Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=fname.ext The receiving user agent SHOULD NOT respect any directory path information present in the filename-parm parameter, which is the only parameter believed to apply to HTTP implementations at this time. The filename SHOULD be treated as a terminal component only. If this header is used in a response with the application/octet- stream content-type, the implied suggestion is that the user agent should not display the response, but directly enter a `save response as...' dialog. See section 15.5 for Content-Disposition security issues. If you read between the lines, what you will find is that Qualcomm essentially asked for an RFC to standardize the stupid behaviour of MS IE, which was using Content-Disposition, originally conceived for MIME Email, and not HTTP at all. Fact is, the browsers didn't really pick up and run with this RFC for a long time. Not to mention that it's a STUPID thing for MS IE to have done in the first place, to re-purpose a MIME email header for HTTP. It doesn't even make sense, since Content-Disposition has a MIME type embedded in it, which may or may not match the Content-type of the HTTP Request! Not to mention the aforementioned security considerations they noted. There are so many inherent internal inconsistencies with this RFC if you think about the HTTP interaction and how UA and server works, I'm amazed Qualcomm even put their name on it. But I guess they preferred that to living with the un-documented behaviour of IE. Bottom Line: Content-Disposition will come back to bite you on the butt sooner or later. -- Some people have a gift link here. Know what I want?

I have a page with a form on it which posts to itself. The
problem is
when someone refreshes the page it enters the data into the
DB again.
How do I clear these variables so that doesn't happen. I tried the
unset function, but no luck. I really don't want to use sessions or
cookies as this is just a simple little page, but still, it has to
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.

Please read this: http://richardlynch.blogspot.com/ Go test with MORE browsers and MORE OSes, because you haven't yet hit the ones where your Content-Disposition does not work, and they are out there somewhere. As if it mattered that much. The filename's just a hint, the browser can be configured to ignore it even if it understands it, whatever. I would even say you're bound to hit a browser configured for some unintelligent reason to handle all app/o-s files with winamp. So what? You cannot count on anything the UA will/not do to the content. If the browser ignores application/octet-stream and doesn't do a download, it's broken. I think you missed my point, which was: broken software is. It *HAS* to prompt you for a filename and do a download, by the original HTTP RFC spec. Please read more RFCs until you find the one about application/octet-stream If the UA opens up application/octet-stream it is in direct violation of one of the few HTTP standards that every other UA on the planet actually honors! A standard that is clear-cut, with no wiggle room for mis-interpretation whatsoever. The only mention of a/o-s in HTTP 1.0 or 1.1 is this (1.1 version): Any HTTP/1.1 message containing an entity-body SHOULD include a Content-Type header field defining the media type of that body. If and only if the media type is not given by a Content-Type field, the recipient MAY attempt to guess the media type via inspection of its content and/or the name extension(s) of the URI used to identify the resource. If the media type remains unknown, the recipient SHOULD treat it as type application/octet-stream. HTTP actually defers to MIME for the CT entity header values. a/o-s was actually proposed in RFC1341 (obsoleted by RFC1521), the latter says: application -- some other kind of data, typically either uninterpreted binary data or information to be processed by a mail-based application. The primary subtype, octet-stream, is to be used in the case of uninterpreted binary data, in which case the simplest recommended action is to offer to write the information into a file for the user. and: RFC 1341 also defined the use of a NAME parameter which gave a suggested file name to be used if the data were to be written to a file. This has been deprecated in anticipation of a separate Content-Disposition header field, to be defined in a subsequent RFC. The recommended action for an implementation that receives application/octet-stream mail is to simply offer to put the data in a file, with any Content-Transfer-Encoding undone, or perhaps to use it as input to a user-specified process. What filename will any sane browser use for: http://example.com/dir1/dir2/iwant.xyz HTTP doesn't discuss this at all, as far as I can tell. [RFC2616 quote] If you read between the lines, what you will find is that Qualcomm essentially asked for an RFC to standardize the stupid behaviour of MS IE, which was using Content-Disposition, originally conceived for MIME Email, and not HTTP at all. Qualcomm simply wanted to standardize something it badly needed for Eudora. Not to mention that it's a STUPID thing for MS IE to have done in the first place, to re-purpose a MIME email header for HTTP. It doesn't even make sense, since Content-Disposition has a MIME type embedded in it, which may or may not match the Content-type of the HTTP Request!

[PHP] ob_flush() possible memory leak in Apache
Server Specs
CentOS 4.4
Apache 2.0.52 (httpd-2.0.52-28.ent.centos4)
PHP 5.1.6 (php-5.1.6-1.2.centos)
PHP running as Apache Module.
Simple script reads a file in (mp3 or other binary file) and spits out
to browser. Upon completion, memory consumption of the Apache child
rises dramatically and CPU usage spikes. Same is true under PHP 5.2.0.
Removing ob_flush and using ini_set(output_buffering = Off);
eliminates the problem, but causes others (browser doesn't appear to see
the headers).
Just want to make sure I'm using the function correctly before filing a
bug report. Offending code example below, just add mp3 file. Use 'top -u
apache' to monitor httpd process, RSS (memory) will jump at the end of
download. You can safely kill that child process ID without having to
restart the entire server.

Re: [PHP] heredoc
I usually use an include rather than a heredoc.

Heredoc seems to be ideal in that I can do all processing first and then layout with relative ease. I was wondering if it was acceptable to use and maintain going forward as i have read on a few mailing archives that this is a cheat and lazy and to be depreciated?? Yikes! Then a scoundrel I must be indeed. I love using heredoc, primarily because it lets me compose blocks of pure output text without interrupting it with control structures, nested quotes, and concatenation syntax, even when it contains nested variables. It helps me to separate logic from markup, something that benefits my code (if not my character!). I imagine you'll hear from others whose sensibilities are offended by heredoc -- in particular those whose careful indentation it spoils -- so I wanted to make sure you knew that it had an (admittedly cheating and lazy yet) ardent supporter as well. I don't know whom, in programming, you can cheat other than yourself; I've been suffering under the misapprehension that laziness is a virtue because it teaches efficiency; but I really hadn't heard that heredoc was going to be deprecated. If it is then it will be my loss and the gain of those who earn royalties from the use of quotation marks and periods and who make their living pulling the tangled and bloody fragments of logic and markup from the wreckage of their collision.

Re: [PHP] DOMDocument Size limit
Chris W wrote: Jochem Maas wrote: what version of php? what version of libxml? php: 5.2.0 libxml: 2.6.26 nothing wrong there I believe, although I haven't yet played with php5.2 myself is the limit actually 4096 bytes per chance? (that seems more likely) the limit is probably 4096 but I think it may be due to the length of tags and other things not just the value. what happens when you create the element with an empty value then use something like this?: $el = $foo-createElement($name, ''); $el-nodeValue = $yourBigString; Same thing happened there also are you able to use $foo-createElementNS() ? does that suffer from the same limit? I'm not familiar enough with the how this dom works to make that modification. I didn't write this code I'm just trying to fix it. could it be a problem with the actual contents of your $value variable? what does it contain? (especially around the 4K bytes mark) the variable contains htmlspecialchars encoded html. The next character this last comment leads me to believe that the data in $value (your html) should be contained in a CDATA node, in which case you should be using the following to create a the CDATA node and add $value to that, after which you can add the CDATA node to the node your are currently trying to add $value to: http://php.net/manual/en/function.dom-domdocument-createcdatasection.php after it stops is either a space or a period. I tried in vain to find something in the php source that might point to your problem.. that's not to say there is nothing there, it's just my skills/understanding aren't up to the job. I looked for something in the php.ini file but the only thing I found was output_buffering = 4096 and that doesn't seem like it would be a problem. agreed - but in the spirit of Murphy it's worth setting it to something bigger to see if it has affect. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You must use full text searching. It will rocks your search speed and suits your scenario. Here is an article for fulltext searching http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2003/06/26/fulltext.html -- Shafiq Rehman Sr. Web Engineer http://www.phpgurru.com On 12/19/06, zoticaic [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm not really sure which is the best path to go but let me give you an example scenario : 1. We already have a database of varchar data : +---+ | links | +---+ | 340-golfers-dream-and-swimmers| +---+ | 89-golfers-dream | +---+ | 45-golf-equipments| +---+ | 3-best-golf-training | +---+ | 0-golf-equipment-and-training | +---+ | 39-golf-training | +---+ 2. From data above if we search the database for '%golf%' it would return all rows as results, if we search for '%golf%training%' it would return three rows . How do I choose from the multiple results? For the '%golf%' query, the desired result is golf-equipments or golf-training, while for '%golf%training%' the desired result should be 39-golf-training alone . This is sort of like search engine ranking their results, but for this how do I set the criteria using MySQL queries or if not possible using PHP . I hope it makes it more clear, questions are welcomed.
