[PHP] caching dynamic thumbnail
just would like to confirm here whether thumbnail images that i generated dynamically with gd is cached by browsers. a) i have a html frontend to call the php script that does that thumbnail. this html file, say, view.htm contains these lines: html img src=thumb.php?image=../images/001.jpgx=150resize=1 /html b) the thumbnailing works perfectly. but is this thumbnail cached inside my browser. how do i find this out ? c) if the answer to question b) above is 'No', is it a good idea to generate thumbnails dynamically but PHYSICALLY writing it to disk (with extra checking of course; is the thumb previously was available, is it the desired size etc etc) please advise. -- roger __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [PHP] New way to make select boxes auto select
i used the same techniqu a while back when i worked with Fast Template.
scenario:
- present a user with a form to input
- there are several text fields and several select options
- if there is/are error(s) upon form submission, we will call the same template
file and insert proper error messages at appropriate places, normally close to
the input field.
- we would also luv to make the select option field to DEFAULT to the PREVIOUS
value that WAS selected.
with the technique that Nathan describe below, you can do just that.
At present i have dropped this technique as I have switched to Smarty. Smarty
can do all this with its {html_optios blah blah blah}.
Recently I made frequent use of Webreference javascript to make select boxes
that are related to each other. ie changing(selecting) a left select box would
make a right select box change accordingly. I am trying to apply Smarty to this
but my javascript knowledge is too shallow. after submitting a form with
errors, the 2 select boxes will default back when the script starts. which is
NOT what i want. if nebody have done this, appreciate your help.

You may already be doing it like this, but I think I found a new way to
make select boxes auto-select (what data they put in) a lot easier. All you
have to do is put a variable in each select tag that is equal to the value
of the select option i.e.: option value=teacher $teacher -- then all you
have to do is base the variable on that select name=interest $$interest =
selected; quick and easy with out having to loop through an if elseif
statement. Let me know if you like that method or have any objections.
Full example below.
print(select name=interest\n);
// creates a variable with a name based on
// the value of interest with a value of selected
$$interest = selected;
print(option value=- Select One -/option\n);
print(option value=teacher $teacherTeacher/option\n);
print(option value=lego $legoLego Enthusiast/option\n);
print(option value=student $studentStudent/option\n);
print(option value=homeschool $homeschoolHomeschool Parent/option\n);
print(option value=browsing $browsingBrowsing/option\n);
print(option value=afterschool $afterschoolAfterschool/option\n);
print(option value=bgca $bgcaBoys Girls Club/option\n);
print(option value=ymca $ymvaYMCA/option\n);
print(/selectnbsp;nbsp;\n);

Quoting Robert Sossomon [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
CREATE TABLE `users` (
`num` int(10) NOT NULL auto_increment,

`password` varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`num`),
KEY `num` (`num`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=12345 ;
That should help out. When creating the table in mysql you can set the
auto_increment number on the last line, which when you add a new user the
query
looks like:
insert into users values('','name','login','pass');
leaving the first field empty makes it automatically increase it. The beauty
is
that you can have 400 people registering at once, and their number
gets
assigned as the query is run against the database, no matter what order they
hit
it in, the system will take it as they come.

Re: [PHP] Re: run remote shell script
OK. I am able to setup remote key authentication between svrA and svrB. From
svrA I can login to svrB with something like
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www]$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and I can also execute a shell script like
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www]$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh
On svrA I have a PHP script like so:
?
system('ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh someDIR');
?
/tmp/test.sh on svrB is only a one liner like so:
mkdir /tmp/$1
I ran the script from the browser but the /tmp/someDIR is not created :(
Could it be that user nobody on svrA is *not* allowed to connect to svrB
because the public key belongs to user www ? How do I rectify this ?
In the actual situation, I need to execute a shell script in svrB (from browser
served by Apache on svrA) that only root can run. Please advise. I am getting
very worried.

Use ssh. You will have to setup remote key authentication from svrA to
svrB (so that a password will not be needed), and then in your script
you would call:
system('ssh svrB /path/to/scriptToRun');

Re: [PHP] Re: run remote shell script
Quoting Richard Lynch [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
If 'www' can do it in a shell, then PHP, running as 'www' can usually do do it
www is a Limux system user on both svrA and svrB.
On svrA, Apache runs as user nobody. I mean, this is the httpd user, where we
defined it in httpd.conf:
User nobody
Group nobody
My bad, I shud have use roger instead of www.
//Do this:
exec('ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh someDIR', $output, $error);
if ($error) echo OS Error: $error\n;
echo implode(\n, $output);
I got this: OS Error: 255
This will tell you what error messages, if any, you are getting.
Most likely what is happening is that the 'www' user in PHP does not
have a true shell set up -- so 'www' has no home dir, so ssh does
not find the keys you stuck in ~/.ssh/ so you need to do something
like:
exec('ssh -i /home/www/.ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh someDIR', $output,
$error);
In my case, user nobody (that Apache runs as in svrA), does not have a true
shell setup. How do I create a private/public key for user nobody when I can't
even login as user nobody (as it does not have a true shell) ?
What's my option ?
Though why you have a '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' user and then have '[EMAIL
PROTECTED]'
running Apache/PHP is beyond my ken...
Sorry for the confusion.
It's usually the PRIVATE key belonging to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' that you would
have sitting in the .ssh directory for '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and then the PUBLIC
half would be sitting in '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' .ssh directory.
Yes, I did that. I logged in as user www in svrA and executed ssh-keygen -t
rsa. I then copied id_rsa.pub to svrB and called it
/home/www/.ssh/authorized_keys. As noted, user www are system users in svrA and
svrB.
I'd be real worried about the script that only 'root' can run...
Set up a new user on svrB that has permission to create the
directories you need, and that's pretty much all that user can do.
Using 'root' access is just too much power.
I mean, I want to execute a command in svrB where only root can do so. Like
'shutdown' or something else.
Appreciate your advise. TIA

Is 'www' a real user on either server?
What is that user allowed to do?
Does that user exist for the express purpose of doing things related
to the web-server, and nothing else?
If so, the easiest solution might be to change httpd.conf to have:
User www
It gives Apache/PHP a little more power ; which increases risk a bit
But if 'www' ONLY has permissions to do the kinds of things you want
to allow Apache/PHP to do, then that's okay.
If 'www' has lots and lots of permisions to do all sorts of things,
then it is a Bad Idea to do httpd.conf: User www
This will tell you what error messages, if any, you are getting.
Damn!
Error 255 is not particularly enlightening, at least to me -- But I
think it indicates a problem before PHP even manages to FIND the ssh
command, not one actually trying to run it.
Somebody who knows OS error codes better than me could maybe clarify
this a bit.
Most likely what is happening is that the 'www' user in PHP does not
have a true shell set up -- so 'www' has no home dir, so ssh does
not find the keys you stuck in ~/.ssh/ so you need to do something
like:
exec('ssh -i /home/www/.ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh someDIR',

$error);
In my case, user nobody (that Apache runs as in svrA), does not have a
true shell setup. How do I create a private/public key for user nobody
when I can't even login as user nobody (as it does not have a true
shell) ?
You *might* be able to use the -i /home/www/.ssh part, so long as
the nobody user can *READ* www's key files...
Though that may not be desirable.
In detail, you *COULD* create a group called 'www_nobody' and add both
'www' and 'nobody' to it, and then you *COULD* chgrp 'www_nobody'
/home/www/.ssh/ (and/or some files within that) and THEN I think the
exec() would work with the -i /home/www/.ssh because now nobody is
using wwws keyring to get into whatever www can get into.
Though, at that point, maybe just changing httpd.conf to User www is
looking more attractive.
You should first try something more simple like:
exec(ls, $output, $error);
if ($error) echo OS Error: $error\n;
echo implode(\n, $output);
just to be certain the nobody user can do *anything* with exec()
It *MAY* be a requirement that nobody has some kind of shell access
for exec() to work... I don't know for sure about that.
But this quick test without the vagaries of ssh and keys and
permissions involved will sort of work towards your goal from the
other end -- getting PHP to execute *something* in the shell, and
knowing that that something is so damn simple that it HAS to work. :-)
If the Apacher user *HAS* to have a valid shell to use exec() then
you're kinda stuck with User www, or some other user like 'www-run'
which I sometimes see... Possibly because for the same reasons that
you have a 'www' user already and don't want to use that for
httpd.conf User.
You may also want to use things like /usr/bin/ls and
/usr/local/bin/ssh or whatever they are on your box. Better to use a
full path and be sure you are not subject to the whims of the shell
and some $PATH environment variable that root might change out from
under you some day by messing with /etc/passwd in a security audit.
What's my option ?
Short version:
Make sure PHP can do something useful with exec() like ls
Make sure PHP can *read* the keys it needs to get into srvB
Use full path to ssh and use -i /home/www/.ssh so PHP knows it's
supposed to get the keys from there.
Though why you have a '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' user and then have '[EMAIL
PROTECTED]'
running Apache/PHP is beyond my ken...
Sorry for the confusion.
'Sokay.
Just wondering WHY you have a user named 'www' if it's NOT to run
Apache...
It's pretty common to have a user 'www' (or similar) running Apache
just so you can keep the web stuff out of the hands of nobody (IE,
everybody) and have a username everybody recognizes as the user that
runs Apache
But then I've seen those boxes where it's 'www-run' or 'apache' or
other more interesting usernames running Apache/PHP, so it's not
really written in stone.
It's usually the PRIVATE key belonging to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' that you
would
have sitting in the .ssh directory for '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and then the
PUBLIC

* Roger Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] :
OK. I am able to setup remote key authentication between svrA and
svrB. From svrA I can login to svrB with something like
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www]$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and I can also execute a shell script like
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www]$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh
On svrA I have a PHP script like so:
?
system('ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh someDIR');
?
/tmp/test.sh on svrB is only a one liner like so:
mkdir /tmp/$1
I ran the script from the browser but the /tmp/someDIR is not
created :(
Could it be that user nobody on svrA is *not* allowed to connect
to
svrB because the public key belongs to user www ? How do I rectify
this ?
In the actual situation, I need to execute a shell script in svrB
(from browser served by Apache on svrA) that only root can run.
Please
advise. I am getting very worried.
Okay, I should have been a little more explicit.
There are two ways I've done this. The initial details are
different,
but the final call is pretty much the same.
1. Using sudo
'sudo' allows users to run commands as different users. In this
case,
we want the user running the web server (usually www, apache, or
nobody) to run ssh, or a script that executes the ssh command, as
a
normal user. I usually opt for the latter, and create a script
such
as:
#!/bin/bash
exec ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /path/to/remote/script
and save it in /usr/local/bin. Then, edit sudoers (usually
executing
'visudo' as root), and add a line like
nobody ALL = (username) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/SCRIPTNAME
What this does is to allow the user 'nobody' (or whomever runs
the
web server process) to execute /usr/local/bin/SCRIPTNAME as
'username', and they do not need to enter a password to do so
(normally with sudo you do).
You'll need to restart the webserver after granting the sudo
privileges.
In this scenario, the normal user, specified by 'username' above,
needs to have the the SSH keys setup between the servers.
2. Give the web user a home directory
The other option is to setup a home directory for the web user.
This
will mean editing the /etc/passwd file to give the web user both
a
home directory and a shell; these are teh last two items in the
colon
delimited list. A sample entry might look like:
nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/var/www:/bin/bash
Once you've done this, restart the web server. At this point,
you'll
then need to become the web user briefly in order to:
* generate an SSH key
* send the key to the remote server
Then, on the remote server, add the SSH key to the appropriate
user
on that system.
Good luck!

* Roger Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] :
My PHP script is in svrA. How do I run a shell script in svrB?
svrB does not have PHP and Apache :(
Is this at all possible? Please advise.
Use ssh. You will have to setup remote key authentication from
svrA to
svrB (so that a password will not be needed), and then in your
script
you would call:
system('ssh svrB /path/to/scriptToRun');

Try putting quotes () around your types, names, and values in your

Question: How do I make the Notice go away without changing error reporting to
error_reporting (E_ALL ~E_NOTICE) ?
Please advise.

Re: [PHP] getting rid of NOTICE
I dont know how to explain this but when you work with an ldap attribute, they are
case sensitive. jpegPhoto was what the schema was written with.
However when you retrieve that into PHP, you accessed them with all lower case. So
accessing userPassword attribute in ldap will become userpassword in PHP.
Just to satisfy your curiosity, I have changed that to your advise with running the
script produces identical result.

You have define jpegPhoto Note Caps P.
$searchFilter = ([EMAIL PROTECTED]);
$sr= ldap_search($ds, LDAP_BASEDN,
$searchFilter,$what2return);
$resultEntries = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);
closeConn($ds);

$gn= $resultEntries[0][givenname];
$sn= $resultEntries[0][sn];
$photo = $resultEntries[0][jpegphoto];
here p is small in jpegphoto.
Got it ...

[PHP] Reservation technique
I would like to do some sort of facilities reservation system. Suppose this is for booking , say, a meeting room. Booking detail to be stored in db: - name or id of person - meeting room number - date and time (when room will be used) - number of hours to be allocated Now say Peter booked room R1 for 20th Nov starting from 9am to 12pm. Then Mary try to book the same room on the same date beginning 10am for 4 hours. How will a PHP script perform such checking to prevent that sort of overlapping in reservation ? Or could it be that my database design is bad that's blocking ideas into my head ? I need help. -- roger --- Sign Up for free Email at http://ureg.home.net.my/ --- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP] Reservation technique
Great! Thanks Murray. -- roger Quoting Murray @ PlanetThoughtful [EMAIL PROTECTED]: How will a PHP script perform such checking to prevent that sort of overlapping in reservation ? Or could it be that my database design is bad that's blocking ideas into my head ? Hi Roger, I think you need to check out the BETWEEN operator in MySQL (assuming you're using MySQL? Look for the equivalent operator in whatever db platform you're using, if otherwise). Essentially what you're looking to do is find out if either the start time or the end time of the new booking falls BETWEEN the start time or the end time of an existing booking. If either of them does, it's safe to assume there's a booking conflict.

RE: [PHP] Reservation technique
Yes. I flipped thru the manpages and found: expr BETWEEN min AND max If expr is greater than or equal to min and expr is less than or equal to max, BETWEEN returns 1, otherwise it returns 0. This is equivalent to the expression (min = expr AND expr = max) if all the arguments are of the same type. Thanks again. -- roger Quoting Murray @ PlanetThoughtful [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Great! Thanks Murray. Hi Roger, On second thoughts, perhaps the BETWEEN operator isn't what you're looking for, since it will probably return false matches on bordering reservations. In other words, someone attempting to make a reservation between 10am and 12pm might be told there's a conflicting reservation if there is already a reservation for between, for example, 12pm and 2pm on the same day. The end time of 12pm on the new reservation will return a match for the start time of 12pm on the existing reservation using the BETWEEN operator. As an alternative, you might try something like: SELECT * FROM reservation_table WHERE (new_start_datetime reservation_start_datetime AND new_start_datetime reservation_end_datetime) OR (new_end_datetime reservation_start_datetime AND new_end_datetime reservation_end_datetime) This should exclude false matches on bordering reservations.

[PHP] stripping negative number
I want to convert negative number to its positive equivalent. $num = -40; printf(Unsigned value is %u, $num); output is: Unsigned value is 4294967256 I have checked the manpages and %u seems the right format.
