[PHP-DB] MySql security
Hi, Since i dont know any mysql group, i will try here - it is anyway related to php. When i want to make php/mysql application i have mysql on the server and i connect to it with mysql_pconnect(localhost,root,) and it works. I assume that any user or hacker could connect to mysql database like this. So, i want to create my database and i want to limit access to this database for some usernames and passwords. I know MSSQL or Interbase can do it - but how i do this in mysql. If this is offtopic can someone point me to any mysql newsgroup. Other question is: if i need to make application which uses credit cards, how can i increase security for it. I have heard about https protocol, but dont know much about it. Any link would be appreciated. Thanks, Radovan -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP-DB] MySql security
Hi,
Since i dont know any mysql group, i will try here - it is
anyway related to
php.
When i want to make php/mysql application i have mysql on the
server and i
connect to it with mysql_pconnect(localhost,root,) and it works.
I assume that any user or hacker could connect to mysql
database like this.
So, i want to create my database and i want to limit access
to this database
for some usernames and passwords. I know MSSQL or Interbase
can do it - but
how i do this in mysql.
If this is offtopic can someone point me to any mysql newsgroup.
I would say this is very offtopic, but this query should do the trick:
GRANT select, update, insert ON your_db_name.* TO
your_username@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password'
Take a look in the MySQL manual for more details on GRANT.
To set a password for root you can use the mysqladmin command:
mysqladmin -u root password your_new_pwd
Note that the word password here really is the word password!
Or you could run this query on the mysql db.
SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD('your_new_pwd');
Other question is: if i need to make application which uses
credit cards,
how can i increase security for it. I have heard about https
protocol, but
dont know much about it. Any link would be appreciated.
You have to look in your webserver's manual for this.

Joakim

RE: [PHP-DB] Email Encryption?
Hi All, I want to thank everyone for their suggestion. A short term solution we're simply going to remove the username from the email. This way if a hacker does obtain the email they don't have the complete details to gain access to the users account. I would like to know more about the code supplied below though. How does this work? As long as they HAVE a string that gets compared in the DB then what good is this? They can still gain access to the users account. Thanks again.

[PHP-DB] formatted text, php and mysql
Hi, hopefully someone can help me out with this.. I need to be able to copy text from a document, keeping carriage returns and white space chars, into a database and output the same to a web page. I have a field in a mysql table of type 'longtext' into which i can load text and keep the white space and carriage return characters intact. I can output this field to a page using php in a similarly formatted way by using the pre tag in an echo statemnet : - echo trpre$content/pre/tr; however, by using the pre tag all individual lines of text are printed on a single line and the sizing of my table is ignored, i.e. the text won't wrap. pre width=20 for example doesn't work.

Unfortunately, this probably means that I will be completely rewriting this application at least once in the future. Oh well, live and learn. Thanks again for the help. If you have multiple checkboxes with the same 'name' then you should name then with brackets, [], such as 'system[]'. This will tell PHP to make the results an array when the form is submitted. For any of the 'submit[]' checkboxes that are checked, they will be present in PHP array on the processing page. Those unchecked will not be present. Say you have the following. input type=checkbox name=submit[] value=1One input type=checkbox name=submit[] value=2Two input type=checkbox name=submit[] value=3Three If the method on your form is POST, and the user checks One and Three, then you'll have the following values in PHP on the ACTION page of the FORM. $_POST['submit'][0] == 1 $_POST['submit'][1] == 3 From that data, though, there's no way to tell that checkbox Two was not checked, unless you go through and check all of the values. That's fine for small forms, but a hassle for large ones. You could also name your checkboxes like this: input type=checkbox name=submit[1] value=1One input type=checkbox name=submit[2] value=2Two input type=checkbox name=submit[3] value=3Three and if the user checks one and three again, you'll get $_POST['submit'][1] == 1 $_POST['submit'][3] == 3 Hopefully that clears some things up.

Re: [PHP-DB] retriving values from two tables
I'm not clear on what you're considering the 'main links'. You can use the linkid value to match the header in the Links table to the childid in the subLinks table. SELECT Links.header, subLinks.childid FROM Links, subLinks WHERE Links.linkid = subLinks.linkid; This should return values like this: - | header | childid| - | yahoo.com | 2 | | php.net| 5 | | sai.org| 3 | - You could narrow down the results returned by adding WHERE subLinks.childid = $value in your query.

RE: [PHP-DB] HTML Forms question...
You learn something new every day! I'll have to remember the [] thing.
My way of handling this situation that does not screw up JavaScript is to assign the
names sequentially, so instead of all the checkboxes being system they would be
system0,system1,... Since PHP is so wonderfully easy to use for referencing variable
variable names I simply loop through:
for($i=0;$iNUMBEROFCHECKBOXES;$i++){
$var = system$i;
$val = $$var;
if (isset($$var)) //--- I think this works.
echo $var = $valbr;
else
echo $var is not checked.;
}
Since I always end up creating the form in PHP I just have the algorithm put a hidden
field in the form that contains the number of checkboxes, in fact my PHP usually
creates the JavaScript code as well, so it ends up being pretty flexible.

Let me append my earlier post.
If you write a function like this:
function myfunction(name){
document.form.name.do_something_legal_to_this_object
}
All you have to do on subsequent pages is pass the name of the object into
the function and you're good to go (e.g.
onClick=javascript:myfunction(objectName)) as long as the function is
included in the page.
Sorry for any confusion.

Not only does Mike's description below work really well for a
single page,
if you write all of your JS stuff like this, you can very
easily use the
same script on multiple pages. Portability! Works great for me.

If you name the checkbox as name=system[] then PHP will
automatically
create an array of the checkbox values which can be
subsequently accessed
via $_POST['system'][n] - be warned however that the '[]' can
screw up any
JavaScript code that refers to the checkbox object...
G' -- not this old chestnut again!
It only screws up your JavaScript if you don't write your
JavaScript to
allow for it.
It's really very simple: *by* *definition* in JavaScript,
the notation
a.b
is *identical* to
a[b]
Thus, if you have a single checkbox named with name=system,
then you can
access it in either of these ways:
document.form.system
document.form[system]
By extension, if you have multiple checkboxes all named with
name=system[], you can refer to them as:
document.form[system[]][0]
document.form[system[]][1]
document.form[system[]][2]
etc...
I know this works because I've been using it for years
(even before I
started programming with PHP!).
Cheers!

Re: [PHP-DB] HTML Forms question...
Great piece of advice Mike. Thanks. Far from obvious. I was stuck with this problem since a few days. Will that also apply to n-dimensional array, like: document.form[system[]][0][1] ?

Javascript... What's that???
Just kidding. I know what it is, but that is about the extent of my
knowledge. Thanks for all the great feedback. I was actually just looking
to be pointed in the right direction as this was a bit outside the scope of
this group. You guys come through in shining fashion though and solve the
problem for me.
Now just to figure out the next 73 issues/steps/challenges/problems.

You learn something new every day! I'll have to remember the [] thing.
My way of handling this situation that does not screw up JavaScript is to
assign the names sequentially, so instead of all the checkboxes being system
they would be system0,system1,... Since PHP is so wonderfully easy to use
for referencing variable variable names I simply loop through:
for($i=0;$iNUMBEROFCHECKBOXES;$i++){
$var = system$i;
$val = $$var;
if (isset($$var)) //--- I think this works.
echo $var = $valbr;
else
echo $var is not checked.;
}
Since I always end up creating the form in PHP I just have the algorithm put
a hidden field in the form that contains the number of checkboxes, in fact
my PHP usually creates the JavaScript code as well, so it ends up being
pretty flexible.

OK. If I am using the POST method and the checkbox 'name' for all
of the checkboxes is 'system', how do I access the results? I am
researching on the PHP site trying to figure out what this array is, and how
I access this if the index name is the same for all elements. I am hoping
that this data will be in an array and I can simply loop through the
contents of the array. If this data is stored in a hash (Perl word for this
type of array, not sure if it's the same in PHP), how do I access this data
since the index for every element would be the same?
I am SURE that I am probably missing some important conceptual
issues here, but still learning as I go. Unfortunately, this probably means
that I will be completely rewriting this application at least once in the
future. Oh well, live and learn. Thanks again for the help.

[PHP-DB] Inserting Picture into the image field in sybase db
Hello, all: I have one probelm about inserting picture into the image field in sybase db. Now, I could insert 15K picture into Sybase db, but just only 15K size. I have on idea how to make the size larger, at least expand it to be 60K. Does anyone have this experience? Does the image field in Sybase have size limitation? Or, does the sybase_query() have size limitation? Any suggestion would welcome. Thanks in advance.

If you have multiple checkboxes with the same 'name' then you should name
then with brackets, [], such as 'system[]'. This will tell PHP to make the
results an array when the form is submitted.
For any of the 'submit[]' checkboxes that are checked, they will be present
in PHP array on the processing page. Those unchecked will not be present.
Say you have the following.
input type=checkbox name=submit[] value=1One
input type=checkbox name=submit[] value=2Two
input type=checkbox name=submit[] value=3Three
If the method on your form is POST, and the user checks One and Three, then
you'll have the following values in PHP on the ACTION page of the FORM.
$_POST['submit'][0] == 1
$_POST['submit'][1] == 3
From that data, though, there's no way to tell that checkbox Two was not
checked, unless you go through and check all of the values. That's fine for
small forms, but a hassle for large ones.
You could also name your checkboxes like this:
input type=checkbox name=submit[1] value=1One
input type=checkbox name=submit[2] value=2Two
input type=checkbox name=submit[3] value=3Three
and if the user checks one and three again, you'll get
$_POST['submit'][1] == 1
$_POST['submit'][3] == 3
Hopefully that clears some things up. If you have any other questions, just
ask.

[PHP-DB] how to update a text BLOB in ODBC?
hi, i am having the devil of a time with this. have been researching it
for 3 weeks. have posted to php.faqts.com (no answer), looked a million
times on php.net, and www.borland.com/interbase, written people email
(no response!) and even tried to get the people at easysoft to answer
(they are working on it)..
but it's been 3 weeks now and i cannot seem to get this question
answered, and our project is waiting..
the question simply is: how to write a BLOB (sub-typwith ODBC in PHP?
fyi, it shouldn't make a difference, but i am using interbase 6.0 as the
back end, and the blob is SUB-TYPE 1 (text).
*reading* the blob is trivial with php Unified ODBC. I just use a normal
SQL select statement:
==
$sql = select note from note_tbl where pkey = '45';
# get result
$result = @odbc_exec($conn, $sql);
# assign values
if ( @odbc_fetch_into($result, $row)) {
$note = $row[0];
}
==
(where notes is the BLOB field). pretty simple.
however, when i try to *write* it back:
==
$sql = insert into note_tbl
(note) values ('${note}')
where pkey = '45';
$result = odbc_exec($conn, $sql);
==
i get an error message:
==
Invalid modify request. Conversion error from string BLOB
==
.. so apparently i cannot simply write the string back out to the BLOB.
(tho' IMHO if i can read in a SUB-TYPE 1 (text) BLOB that easily, then i
should be able to write it back out that easily).
apparently this is not just at the PHP Unified ODBC level.. if i run
easysoft's isql program at the command prompt and try to run the same
commands, while i don't get as specific an error message, it does return
an error:
==
SQL update notes_tbl set note = 'hello there' where pkey = '16784'
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLExecute
SQL _
==
does anyone have some example code for how to do this (in PHP)?
i'd be most grateful..

Re: [PHP-DB] how to update a text BLOB in ODBC?
Jeff,
Check your SQL. Shouldn't
$sql = insert into note_tbl
(note) values ('${note}')
where pkey = '45';
be UPDATE where pkey = '45' ?
Or, do a delete where pkey = '45' followed by an insert. In that case check
the synatx of your insert 'cause it doesn't look correct.

Re: [PHP-DB] $_get 2 variables
Quoting Gavin Amm [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi, I'm wanting to retrieve data from my database using 2 conditions in the WHERE clause. How do i pick up 2 different variables from the URL? i can get just 1 variable easily (eg: http://localhost/myscript.php?var1=blah) My question essentially is: what string do do i need to type into the URL to pick up the 2 variables like this: $var1 = $_GET['var1']; $var2 = $_get['var2']; Do I need to start messing around with strings? or is there an easy way? Thanks, Gav Try: http://localhost/myscript.php?var=foovar2=bar '' is the default url parameter seperator. The rest of your code looks fine. (course there are lots of other ways to go about it). --Ryan -- Ryan T.

Re: [PHP-DB] standart variabels melfunction
Martin, what you are experiencing is the normal way to call form variables. There is no problem. You should use register_globals=Off whenever possible. better security.

With MSSQL the blobs (text/image) can be handled with READ_IMAGE/READ_TEXT and
WRITE_IMAGE/WRITE_TEXT. This writes/reads from the paged resource directly,
bypassing the transaction log etc etc. I don't know if your DB possibly has a
similiar method?
Aside: Insert and Update work normally as well... but are fully logged.

RE: [PHP-DB] how to update a text BLOB in ODBC?
Hi Jeff,
Just a question - why are you using ODBC instead of PHP's native
Interbase connectivity? ODBC is definitely slower.
I don't know anything about BLOBs under ODBC, but I could help you with
direct Interbase connectivity, which I use extensively (but not for text
fields - it makes it difficult and slow to search).
Let me know if you need help with direct connection BLOB handling under
Interbase. I am using Firebird, not that it should make any difference.
