I must confess that I do not know the O'reilly book you're talking 
about, but "PHP & MySQL development" from SAMS is a good book both as a 
reference, basic intro and has a lot of in-depth examples. Furthermore, 
it has a rather fine introduction to OO-programming in php

Re: [PHP] Run two separate version of Apache and Php

[Al Baker]

I believe you will need to compile two versions, and point two to
different php.ini locations.

Here's a snipet from the manual.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.configure.php#install.configure.options.php

Al


--enable-maintainer-mode

Enable make rules and dependencies not useful (and sometimes confusing)
to the casual installer.
--with-config-file-path=PATH

Sets the path in which to look for php.ini, defaults to PREFIX/lib.
--enable-safe-mode

Enable safe mode by default.
--with-exec-dir[=DIR]

Only allow executables in DIR when in safe mode defaults to
/usr/local/php/bin.
--enable-magic-quotes

Enable magic quotes by default.

[PHP] xslt_output_begintransform() - What Happend to it?

[Nigel Liefrink]

Couldn't help noticing with the upgrade to version 4.21 that this function
is no longer available,

I've looked around and not found much on the subject but so far I have
worked out that my code basically has to change from this...




   

  
  
Whole Site
  
  
  Product Code
  
  
Categories


UNPCSC


Manufacturer Name


Manufacturer Code

  
 

  


  




To this ...



$XMLText.="".(date('Y-m-d'))."";
$XMLText.="".unparsedXML($globalBuyerName)."";
  if($MainWindow != "No"){
$XMLText.="Whole SiteProduct CodeCategoriesUNPCSCManufacturer NameManufacturer Code";
$XMLText.="";
$XMLText.="";

$xh = xslt_create();
$result = xslt_process($xh, $XMLText, $xslfile, NULL, $arguments);
print $result;

I've been using 4.06 for a while and the code in the old way is much easier
to read (especially with a Color Coded Editor) and therefore much easier to
maintain and there is a lot of it..,

I've started changing the code to make it work, but the whole time I'm
feeling sorry for the Poor Tortured Soul who has to maintain it. and then it
hits me that the Poor T S will most probably be me.

Why did the xslt_output functions get removed? As far as I could tell they
worked just fine.
Am I approaching this change to the code from the wrong angle?
Is there a way to use XML and XSL in the way similar to the xslt_output
functions?
I was thinking of having files that could call the Old XML files and execute
the PHP inside them and return a string of executed phtml.
I think I could shell out to PHP.exe, but to me that doesn't seem very
efficient? as php is compiled into apache at the moment. Is there another
way to execute a PHP file called from within another PHP file and return the
output results as a String?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

By the way PHP is fantastic.
Keep up the Good Work.

Nigel

[PHP] URGENT!!! File Uplaod

[César Aracena]

Hi all.
 
Sorry for this, but a couple of hours ago (imagine… Monday at 3 in the
morning) one of my clients called and asked me to put a Photography
upload for each member of his business and the dead line is in 2 hours.
 
I’ve been messing around for the first time with file uploading, but it
seems I keep doing something wrong. I’m using:
 




Select Photography: 


 
but phpinfo tells me (Under HTTP_POST_FILES["userfile"]):
 
Array
(
[name] => picture.jpg
[type] => image/pjpeg
[tmp_name] => none
[size] => 0
)
 
Why is this??? Also, this is going to be the first time I deal with file
managing… so if you please throw some bones at me…
 
Thanks very3 much… I’m on dial-up but will stay connected though.

[PHP] Removing Empty Lines from Text??

[Jason Caldwell]

Is there an elegant way to remove excess blank lines from my form data?

For example;  if someone enters the following text and then press' the
Submit button:


This is a some text


This is more text, and yet even more


What I want to do is remove the excess white space and make it look like
this?


This is a some text

This is more text, and yet even more


My users may press  too many times and I want to ensure clean text
and formatting.

Thanks.
Jason

Short answer: with great difficulty.
Longer answer: use some form of regular expression to extract the bits that 
you need displayed.

Re: [PHP] Removing Empty Lines from Text??

[Justin French]

Well, in short, you want to replace \n\n\n or \n\n\n\n with \n\n.

This can be done cleaverly with a regexp (not my expertise at all, but you
want to replace 3 or more occurences of \n in a row with \n\n.

Otherwise, a simple str_replace() will do it an okay job.

something like:



Untested of course.

Like I said, a regexp would be better here.

It's worth noting that round doesn't always work e.g.

try round(0.35,1)

As I understand it, you just want to truncate the number, without
rounding.

I think you are right, there isn't a function to do it for you but the
following code should do it:

intval(4.623 * 10)/10

or more generally:

function truncate_number($mynumber,$places) {

return intval($mynumber * pow(10,$places))/pow(10,$places);
}

[PHP] imagecopyresized() problems

[Phil Ewington]

Hi,

I am trying to copy and resize an image using imagecopyresized() and 
cannot seem to crack it. Below is the code I am using, can anyone tell 
me why I keep getting and invalid image resource warning and is this 
the src or dest parameter that the error is referring to?

$srcImageName = "../properties/$line[propid].jpg";
$destImageName = $rm_branchref . "_" . $line[propid] . ".jpg";
$destImage = imagecreate(275, 183);
imagecopyresized($destImage, $srcImageName, 0, 0, 0, 0, 275, 183, 
imagesx($srcImageName), imagesy($srcImageName));
imageJpeg($destImage, $destImageName, 75);
imagedestroy($destImage);

All that happens is that I get an identical copy of the image, and not 
a resized one.

TIA

Phil Ewington.

[PHP] php & JavaScript

[Luis Miguel N. Tavora]

Hi there.

I've tried to include a simple javascript in a .php file, 
but couldn't get it to work.

Actually not even the php code worked at all...

Is there any specific configuration flag that needs to be
set up in the Apache server so that the javascripts work
correctly? 

Thanks in advance

Luis

PS- Btw, I use an Apache server on a RH72 machine

[PHP] ftp class problem

[Steve Edwards]

i've written a class for connecting to an ftp server in 
passiv mode, sending a text file, sending one or 
more .mpegs and disconnecting.  

on my test box this script works fine (PHP 4.2.1) BUT 
on my live box (PHP 3.0.18) it fails...

On the live box (php 3.1.8) the script fails when i 
call the ftp passiv mode function  
(*  $conn_pasv = ftp_pasv($this->connection, 1);  *) 

If i comment out this line - the script connects ok but 
then fails when trying to do ftp_put().  

here's the connect method :

// open ftp connection 2 box and authenticate
function connect() {
  $this->connection =  ftp_connect($this->boxip);
  if (!$this->connection) { 
 $this->msgHandler('Could not connect to Box.',1); 
  } else {
 $this->login = ftp_login($this->connection, $this-
>boxuname, $this->boxpass);
   if (!$this->login) { $this->msgHandler('login',1); }
   $conn_pasv = ftp_pasv($this->connection, 1);
   $this->msgHandler('Connected to Set Top Box...',0); 
}
}


In the send method the ftp_put call looks like this -

$put = ftp_put($this->connection, $this->remfile,$this-
>localfile, FTP_BINARY);


Any ideas as to why this bunks in PHP 3?  I'm beginning 
to think upgrading PHP on the live server is the best 
thing to do... can anyone shed any light??

Thanks

[PHP] Sessions problem

[Francesco Chicchiriccò]

Hello people out there!

I've experienced a curly problem with Linux 2.4.16, Apache 1.3.9 & PHP
4.0.6 (Slackware 8). 

I use a session variable ($login) to manage the authentication to a web
administration interface: every page begins with a simple test which
checks if $login is stored in session. If not, it prompts an error
message.




Sometimes (I wasn't able to find out any reproducible condition) the
interface kicks off the user: the sessioned variable is lost.

The most amazing thing is that I got no problems with 4.0.3pl1 on Linux
2.4.18 (Debian potato).

Anyone of you can tell me the deeply hidden reasons?

Thanks.

Javascript is client side and is not parsed by the server at all

If you are generating javascript with PHP, and it is in an external file, it
still needs a .php extension

Sorry, can't be done.  People aren't really "online" when they are using 
a web browser.  They request a page, and it gets sent to them, and the 
web server forgets about them.  Unless the web server logged their 
request, but then the web server has no way of knowing when the user 
"stops" looking at the page, so... you get the picture.

You'd have to write a Java applet or something that can maintain state.  
HTTP can't do this.  Unless you're really creative and you use 
JavaScript and sessions (and even then it won't be very reliable).

PHP does dynamic typing.  So the following returns TRUE

if ("1" == 1)

even though the first value is a string and the second value is an 
integer.  You can force PHP to check for the same type by using three 
equal-signs, so that the above would return FALSE but either of the two 
below would return TRUE:

if ("1" === "1")
if (1 === 1)

Someone else mentioned the "empty()" language construct.  Learn this and 
use it everywhere.  I find that it is probably one of my most-often used 
tricks to evaluate user input of any kind, especially checkboxes and 
radio buttons.  The reason why is because if you use "if 
($_POST['varname'])" or "if (isset($_POST['varname']))", you're testing 
to see if the variable was ever set.  With HTML forms, they may in fact 
have been set but have no values.  Using empty() will test to see if 
they evaluate to false (such as if they contain an empty string, which 
is what happens when someone submits a form but doesn't actually put 
some data into a certain input), and that is a reliable way to test for 
changes.

Also, I have a shopping-cart-like feature on my site.  I store my 
"purchased" objects in an array.  One thing that I learned the hard way 
is that if you use unset() to remove items from this array, you will end 
up with empty array elements.  If you need to re-order the array (to put 
the indexes into a sequential order once again), you can do something 
like this:

array_push($array, 'dummy_value');
unset($array[$index_to_unset]);
array_pop($array);

Because using array_pop() will re-index the array.  Much thanks to 
Nathan for that tip.

Ottneder,

You can't easily do what you want i.e. to have an html page in the user's
browser with Javascript which goes back to a php script on the server
after a user select in order to pick up the data for a new select list.

Normally when creating dynamic select lists, I actually get the php to
drop ALL the data in the top of the page as Javascript variables.  You
can see an example in the source of http://tandridge.cpfc.co.uk/tables.

I guess it is at least theoretically possible to do what you want by getting
your Javascript to open up a "hidden" background frame targetted at
a php script which then puts the data back into that frame so you can
then access it in the original frame.  It would be a bit complicated and
clumsy...

The third option is to have your select as a separate frame and do a submit
of just that part of the page.  This is the easiest to code but probably the most
clumsy from a graphics point of view.

How much data is involved? How many different versions of the select list
and how many options in each version?   If it's not too much, then I'd put it
all in the page as I do, as compactly as you can e.g. short variable names etc.

Hope this helps,

George

John,

The best way to do this is with both.  maxlength/Javascript as a courtesy,
 strlen for security.

As you say, you can NEVER rely on any kind of client-side check, all checks
must be done on the server side.  So, it's tempting to skip client-side checks,
but making the user wait for server side execution before any checks are done
is actually very rude.  Every time I see server-only checks for required fields etc.,
I switch off and lose confidence in the site.

George

There's a meta tag that will auto-refresh the page after a specified 
number of seconds.  That will work.  But you can't re-populate the data 
in the page using PHP.  Remember, PHP has generated an HTML document and 
sent it to the user's browser.  That is all.

If you are creative, you can use JavaScript to solve the problem, but it 
will require some kind of communication with the web server, and won't 
work if the user doesn't have the right implementation of JavaScript.  
That can be a headache.

or you can write a Java applet (actually for this kind of task I 
recommend this).

PHP can't control the refreshing. It simply sends the data to the web
server, who sends it to the browser, and forgets about it. It's up to you to
provide some code that the browser can understand that'll make it request
the page again, automatically. Most situations like this are handled with a
META REFRESH tag in the header, to request the same page again after X
seconds...

I'd be interested to hear from other people if that works in other browsers.
It had a nice effect when I looked at it in IE6.

Notice that the page is plain text, though. If you start adding in tables
and what not, then it's up to the web browser to decide when to render the
page. You'll notice that the one table that's on the page renders all at
once (in IE6 at least). Depends on the application whether this is useful or
not...

Re: [PHP] php & JavaScript

[1LT John W. Holmes]

Can you please explain what you're doing more?

PHP and Javascript are completely different. PHP happens first, on the web
server, to create code to send to the browser. The browser then interprets
this code, executes any javascript, etc, and displays the page. You can't
have both at the same time. Each one can send information back to the other,
but it needs to happen with a page refresh...

Are you sure your server is even set up for PHP?

Is it possible that your php.ini file is configured for 
register_globals = off ?

If so, you should use:

$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] instead of $PHP_SELF.

You're probably using a newer version of php (4.1.x+). If so, then you need to 
refer to $PHP_SELF as $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']. Read the release notes for your 
version of PHP or read the php.ini or RTFM for more details.

There are quite a few config settings which cannot be altered using ini_set(), 
register_globals being one of them, although that can be set using .htaccess 
files.

You're giving it a filename and not an image resource.

I see.  I must have misread this page:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php

The terms PHP_INI_SYSTEM and PHP_INI_ALL aren't totally clear in the 
right-hand column titled "changeable".

To add my tuppence's worth, I would search for and remove any white spaces

[PHP] PHP as a proxy to an htaccess protected site. (STILL UNRESOLVED)

[php]

Hi people,

Iam trying to make a script that you give it the login and password for 
a determined password protected site, and it logs you in. It will be 
like a proxy.

So, what I have is something like this:



So now.. here I have two problems:
1.) If the user enters a login/pass that is not the correct this 
appears on the screen hundreds of times:

"Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource .."

2.) /protected_area/index.html is a frame site, which means that if the 
pass/login are ok it will show you only the index.html, but this is 
made of frames, so then I have another login prompt for the frames.

My question is, is there anyway I can fix problem 1, and in problem 2 
is there anyway to proxy this in a better way, where you input the 
login once and it stay there so i dont get any more login prompts?

Thank You.

If you're using imap you need to install the kerberos libraries as well.

google for: "libphp4.so undefined symbol:gss_nt_service_name" should yield

[PHP] function definition causing problems?

[Bill Hudspeth]

I am using PHP 4.2.1, Windows 2000P, IIS4 connected to an Access 2000
database with an ISAPI module. I have created a very simple form and have
written a function to display radio buttons. While a hard-coded, HTML
version of the form works perfectly (correctly returning data), the php file
brings up an error message when I simply add the function definition at the
top of the page (whether or not the function call is present in the code
further down).



i.e.,



Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting
T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\PHP\cat_proto3.php on line 46





Line 46 corresponds to the form tag, as follows:









The entire code is below:







  Prototype IOM Meteorite Catalog Access Site





"
: ">";

$String .= "\n";

} #end of for loop

return chop($String);

} #end of function MakeRadioButtons()




#

?>

//execute query

$queryexe = odbc_do($connectionstring, $class_query);



//query database

while(odbc_fetch_row($queryexe))

{

$msample = odbc_result($queryexe, 1);

$mtype = odbc_result($queryexe, 2);



//format results

}

}

?>

[PHP] session_is_registered = secure?

[Duncan]

Hi there,

i created a session based login and in order to enter the selected part of the script, 
i check for the passed variable and if the session is registered, which only happens, 
if the user password is right.

So, currently i am checking for:

else if (($login)&&(session_is_registered('login_user')))
{
...SCRIPT_PART...
}

However, can this be exploited?
I mean, would it be possible for a user to forge the 
"session_is_registered('login_user')" and so gain access to that part of the script?

Would you recommend adding a sepparate "check for right user&pass" within the 
SCRIPT_PART again?

Regards,

Duncan

[PHP] Using $PHP_SELF in a form

[Frank Miller]

Hello All,

    I’m working on a project here
at our university and need a little.  We installed a wireless network and
bought 5 ipaq’s to use and experiment with.  I wrote a work order system
that we are still using. Basically the tech guys want to be able to check WO
from the ipaq’s and if they finish them fill in a check box and have it
be updated in the WO database and not be displayed on the open or uncompleted
work order page. I can do everything except when the completed box is filled I
can’t get it to fill in the database. Below is the code I’m using.
Keep in mind it is being displayed on a ipaq so the headings are brief. Also I’m
working on my local computer before it is put in production. Any help would be
appreciated. 

 

TIA – Frank

When you echo out an array element, the name needs to be enclosed in
curlies, e.g.,

echo {$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}

Sorry, can't give you the manual reference.

[PHP] wordwrap doesn't work for customer's Outlook

[m u i n a r]

Hello

What would *you* do if you wordwrap a text and send it via the
mail() command, and your costumer gets the whole text on 1 single
line?

I'm using $newtext = wordwrap( $text,76,"\r\n" );

He has Outlook. When I'm testing it in my Eudora, in Bat and in
Outlook Express, it's wrapped nicely.

(So far the headers end with \n and not with \r\n - may this
have an influence on the resulting email body? I cannot run 33
tests, because the only one who can test it for me is the
customer...)

TIA

The 2nd argument to setcookie needs to be a string.

Frank,

I can't see anything obviously wrong with your code, but it's a bit hard to follow.

In general I tend to do all processing in a script first before writing any output so 
you get something like:

if (isset($submit))
{
   ... sql updates 
}
... sql selects  e.g. $cursor=mysql_query("");



 header

...form start

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($cursor))
{
   print ' per row html '.$row[value1] etc.
}

...form end...
... footer stuff


A big advantage of this is that if you do hit an error during your SQL stuff, then
you can redirect straight to an error page without having to worry about
"headers already sent" messages.  A secondary advantage is that if you do
your updates first, you can just let the normal select code run so after every
update the form just returns with the new values of data without another stage
of selection.

Anyway, back to the problem, it looks as if you'll need some traces to find out
what is actually happening.  First of all I'd suggest you just print your query
string before executing it, then you can have a look and see what it's actually
trying to do.  Most likely it either is never getting to the query or no value set
in $checkbox[0].

I guess (!$HTTP_POST_VARS['submit']) works, but I always
go for a named submit e.g. type=submit name=update, and an explicit isset check
if isset($update) etc.  I also wonder why you look for submit in HTTP_POST_VARS
but pick up $checkbox[0] directly.

As your code stands I guess they can only check one box at once.  Have you
considered a foreach($checkbox as $orderno) loop for the updates?  Personally,
after very unpleasant experiences with early Internet Explorers I still name each
form field individually instead of trusing arrays e.g. checkbox0, checkbox1 etc. Of
course if you do that you need to have a hidden field with the number of records
displayed to know how many checkboxes to check which is a bit of a pain.

Sorry I couldn't help more.


Good Luck,

George

[PHP] Ensim with PHP and MySQL

[Mark McCulligh]

Has anyone ever used Ensim on their server with PHP and MySQL.

I am looking at purchase Ensim to management my web sites.  It looks like a
great product, but because it is embedded into RedHat, I am worried about
its flexible.

If I want to upgrade my PHP, MySQL or Apache on it. It doesn't look like it
is that easy.

In short I just want to know if anyone out there is using Ensim and if so,
do you like it.

Thanks, Mark.

[PHP] Re: Convert a grayscale value to a #RRGGBB hex value

[Matthew Gray]

If you know its grayscale...

function GrayScaleToHex( $val ) {

$norm = $val * 2.55 + $val/100;
$hex = sprintf("%02X", $norm);
return '#' . $hex . $hex . $hex;
}

Should get you close enough.

I think that this is only important when using an associative array 
element reference within certain kinds of quotes.  Like this:

// this won't work b/c of quoting issues
echo "This script is called $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]";

// this should work fine IIRC
echo "This script is called $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']";

// this should also work if for some reason you needed
// to use double quotes within the array element reference
// (to interpolate a variable, for instance)
echo "This script is called {$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]}";

// and this is the same thing really
echo "This script is called ${_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]}";

But in your original post, in your ./configure command you haven't specified 
kerberos. I used "--with-kerberos=/usr/kerberos".

good approach?

function grayscaletohex ($val)

$n = ($val * 255) / 100;// convert from range of 100 to

$h = dechex($n);// convert decimal to hex
$results = $h.$h.$h;// create 6 digit browser color

Nope.  Quoted array indexes don't work inside strings.

Nope.  The {} don't change the quoting issues you mentioned in your first 
(non-working) example.

> // and this is the same thing really
> echo "This script is called ${_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]}";

... and fails for the same reason!

You can use:

   echo "This script is called {$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}";
   echo "This script is called ${_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}";
   echo "This script is called $_SERVER[PHP_SELF]";

or even 

   echo "This script is called " . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

  if (!dbase_open("P:\\orders.dbf",2)){
   print "COULD NOT OPEN DB";
  }else{
   print "DB WAS OPENED";
  }

I receive a message that says :
Warning: unable to open database P:\orders.dbf in
C:\InetPub\wwwroot\pappreport.php on line 81
COULD NOT OPEN DB

Yes, the database exists, as I copied it FROM here to C:\ to do my test.

Any ideas??? I have checked the PHP.INI file, and all the regular settings
in IIS - and could not find anything misconfigured.. but I am by no means an
IIS expert, so I am not sure.

Thanks in advance
Dave

I thought this syntax, an unquoted key name, was deprecated ;)

Not inside a quoted string.

Oh.  Well, thanks for clarifying -- I always use the concat (last) 
method myself, but this settles an incorrect assumption I'd been 
carrying around for months.  You're batting two for two today. ;)

Re: [PHP] session_is_registered = secure?

[Kevin Stone]

I don't know of any exploit that can start a session remotely.  Only thing I
can recommend is that you modify the default session id to prevent local
hackers from hijacking your sessions (assuming you're on an ISP and not
running your own server).  Also you should consider testing those variables
more strictly.  If you're expecting a specific value or range of values then
you should test for that instead.  For example if $login is true or false
then you should test it directly with if($login=true) since any value other
than 0 will automatically evaluate to true.

"Would you recommend adding a sepparate "check for right user&pass" within
the SCRIPT_PART again?"

When you've cleared the user once why would you need to do it again on the
same page?  :)

Subject: [PHP] session_is_registered = secure?


Hi there,

i created a session based login and in order to enter the selected part of
the script, i check for the passed variable and if the session is
registered, which only happens, if the user password is right.

So, currently i am checking for:

else if (($login)&&(session_is_registered('login_user')))
{
...SCRIPT_PART...
}

However, can this be exploited?
I mean, would it be possible for a user to forge the
"session_is_registered('login_user')" and so gain access to that part of the
script?

Would you recommend adding a sepparate "check for right user&pass" within
the SCRIPT_PART again?

Regards,

Duncan

Re: [PHP] PHP with IIS

Does the user to which ISS runs under have network permissions to access p:\
?
IIRC you need to set up ISUR_machine_name to have permission to the remote
share.

[PHP] Run two separate version of Apache and Php

[rdkurth]

Hello php-general,

I need to run a separate version of Apache on the same server I also
what to use a different copy of the php.ini file with that version of
apache. I am aware that I can override most of the php.ini settings in
the httpd.conf file. But this is not what I want to do.
Php will be running as a DSO with apache. So is the only way I can do
this is to install a different copy of php to run with this version of
Apache. Or is there a way I can get the httpd.conf file to read a
different copy of php.ini

Re: [PHP] php & JavaScript

[Jim lucas]

nope, theres nothing in apache that needs to be setup for js to be used.
does your js file have any php in it?
when you say that you couldn't get it to work, do you mean that the include
doesn't work or that the js doesn't work on the page that you are including
it to?
