Re: [PHP] Dinamic generate PDF : which way ? (classes, docbook)

Hello Robert, I would suggest that if your data is such that it can use DocBook, definitely go the DocBook route. You can also use Apache's Cocoon publish your DocBook content to PDF/HTML/RTF/SVG/TXT etc. Here are some samples that use Apache Cocoon to perform dynamic conversion to PDF/HTML:

Hello Ed, To give some details: I am unable to re-produce a CSRF attack when the victim is using a I.E. 6.01 SP1 (all patches applied). However the attack works in Mozilla and other older browsers. I can't give you the exact code for attack (for security reasons), but it is similar to the fo

Hello, I m not saying the I.E. completely fixed the CSRF attacks, by only allowing .jpg .gif .png files. But it "might" be one possible way to minimize CSRF attack, just like using POST vs GET can help minimize the chances of that attack. BTW, using POST instead of GET does NOT guarantee that
