RE: [PHP-DB] Re: security/setup question: php3 script contains db password, but scriptmust be readable by nobody: any solution?
The only answer I know is in the php config, which you may not have acces to. php can be configured to run as the owner of the script that calls it. This means only your scripts can read your files. This is not the default option, and most ISPs just run the default, so your password is available to anybody skilled enough to find it. http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php should help HTH Peter --- Excellence in internet and open source software --- Sunmaia www.sunmaia.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel. 0121-242-1473 --- -Original Message- From: Michael Andersson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 04 April 2002 11:55 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Re: security/setup question: php3 script contains db password, but scriptmust be readable by nobody: any solution? you could always use a sepeate file and and then use include (path/to/whateverfile.php); with all your dc connection prefererences in it...

Hello, I use apache with php3 and mysql to get some data out of the mysql database like probably lotsa people do. The php3 file contains the password, because it must be able to connect to the database with a valid password. This file also needs to be readable because nobody (the user of the apache webserver) must be able to read the file. At least i think this is the reason because without a chmod o+r it doesn't work. There are ca. 200 users on this machine.. so i would like to avoid the possibility that other users get this password. Are there any solutions? I already checked the faq and i couldn't find it.

When the user post a message, proccess the queries on temp page and then redirect to a page where you display message to user. In this case if he hits reload button, php don't repeat queries.

Ok heres the problem. I am constructing a Message Board with MySQL and php (was usingASP) and I dont want the user to reload/repost data. For example, say the user goes to post amessage, after they hit the post button it takes them to a temp page saying that there post wassuccesful with a link to go view the post. The problem arises if some one decides to hit thereload button. Because of the way I have the posting page setup it will reload the page and postthe message again! doh!

[PHP-DB] Best way to not display frozen users?
I run a gaming website. Sometimes, I have to freeze users for one thing or another. But, since there are lots of tables involving users that get displayed to other users, they still get seen. One solution to this seems to be to have an array of frozen users in the header, which I check when displaying user-related things. Is this the best solution, and if it is, what is the best way to do it? Thanks! -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP-DB] how to bring down the mysqlserver without getting an inconsistant db?
Have in mind this : LOCK TABLES locks tables for the current thread. UNLOCK TABLES releases any locks held by the current thread. All tables that are locked by the current thread are automatically unlocked when the thread issues another LOCK TABLES, or when the connection to the server is closed.

[PHP-DB] Upload Multiple Images
Hi all...kinda new to PHP and MySQL...anyhow, I have created the following table: CREATE TABLE images ( id smallint(6) NOT NULL auto_increment, image_title varchar(75) default NULL, image_src varchar(150) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) ) TYPE=MyISAM; I have also created a form that allows me to upload one image at a time, but I would like to be able to upload SEVERAL images at once. Directory for images is: ./_images/(filenames) There are also some subdirectories. What can I do to make it so that I can upload all of the images in a directory (or at least more than one) without having to type each one in and submit it? Your help would be very much appreciated!

RE: [PHP-DB] Upload Multiple Images
brandon, you can only ever upload 1 file per file input box, but you can have more than one of these input fields per form. you might have something like input type=file name=file1 input type=file name=file2 input type=file name=file3 that way when you are processing (assuming PHP4+) you can use something like $HTTP_POST_FILES[file2][name] blah blah hope that helps. you will have to check, but i think the MAX_FILESIZE and post_max_filesize or (whatever they are) variables apply to the *whole* form, so if your MAX_FILESIZE var is set to 2meg, and you have 3 files uploading, then their total must not exceed 3meg (i think) HTH Beau // -Original Message- // From: Brandon Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] // Sent: Friday, 12 April 2002 6:06 AM // To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] // Subject: [PHP-DB] Upload Multiple Images // // // Hi all...kinda new to PHP and MySQL...anyhow, I have created // the following // table: // // CREATE TABLE images ( // id smallint(6) NOT NULL auto_increment, // image_title varchar(75) default NULL, // image_src varchar(150) default NULL, // PRIMARY KEY (id) // ) TYPE=MyISAM; // // I have also created a form that allows me to upload one // image at a time, but // I would like to be able to upload SEVERAL images at once. // Directory for // images is: // // ./_images/(filenames) // // There are also some subdirectories.

[PHP-DB] Numeric value are coming in as halfs
I'm using PHP to read data from a file and dump it into an array,
then I'mfeeding that array into mySQL
transfer happens fine except that some the numeric values are halfed
currenly I'm simply tweaking the output by going:
(int) $player_data[16] = $player_data[16] * 2 / 10;
the /10 is needed because it also adds a zero to the end (f*cking guy)
this is the script:
for ($i = 1; $i 34; $i++){
$order = fgets($fp, 100);
$order_exploded = explode(=, $order);
fwrite($this_fp, $order_exploded[1]);
echo($order_exploded[1] . br);
trim($order_exploded[1]);
$player_data[$i] = $order_exploded[1];
the fwrite() part is just a remainder of old testing (acts as write
confirm)
the data comes in 'field=value' format hence explode and sh*t
THanks in advance.
