What would be the value then?

If I get you correctly, you would treat an array that comes like
[0] = entry 0
[1] = entry 1
[2] = entry 2
as
[entry 0] = ??
[entry 1] = ??
[entry 2] = ??

What happens when there are duplicate values in the source array? You will
loose entries on duplicate values.

If I got you right here have a look at array_flip()
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-flip.php) to exchange array sides.

You can't tell with absolute certainty if an array is enumerated, or built
as associative array. Take this example:
$a = array('one','two','three');
$b = array(); $b[0] = 'one'; $b[1] = 'two'; $b[2] = 'three';
$c = array(0 = 'one', 1 = 'two', 2 = 'three');

Which one would you believe is enumerated, and which one is associative?

What you can do is walk the array keys and check if there is at least a
single non-numeric key. If you found one the array is associative. If you
found none it may be likely that the array is enumerated, but you can't be
sure in a general way, except your application is designed in a way that
uses always non-numeric keys for associative arrays.

[PHP] Favor from gurus

2003-03-20 Thread Dennis Gearon
If one of you are a guru and on the php-dev list, would you please
either look at the code or ask others on that list if it's possible to
use:

'requiressl=1'

in the connection string for pg_connect/pg_pconnect and it will actually
work in PHP ver = 4.2.2 ?

I am already on so many lists, I don't want to join another for one
question.

Please cc me because I'm on digest for php-general.

Thank you in advance.

Yes, but you need to tell Apache (in the AddType line in httpd.conf) to 
parse all .html files with php. This has a performance implication for 
ordinary .html files.

PHP as an Apache module runs as the user that Apache runs as. Typically 
nobody or apache.

I use a well known PHP based messageboard on a website I run, and I want
to prevent non-root, non-me access to the file containing my database
password.
I suggest if a file then put it outside Apache's document root or use an 
environment variable.

For a perl script, I'd just chmod it 700 with directory given perms 711
- but in PHP 4.3.2rc1, it seems that to reference a file by way of a
relative path, the script must be at least 644 and the directory it's in
755.
My older version of php is quite happy with 700 permissions, unless I've 
got this wrong.  The owner is the Apache user.

Re: [PHP] Cleaning user data

2003-03-20 Thread rotsky
That's useful stuff, thanks - and thanks to other respondents.

My main concerns are to avoid junk in the database (and on-screen messages)
and to avoid dangerous and malicious postings, like the one Justin outlined
below (so I guess strip_tags is a major step there). What I have in mind,
then, is:

Use a foreach loop to run through all posted data and perform the following
on each item:
- strip_tags()
- trim()

I'll be saving this stuff to a database, so I'll keep htmlentities for the
display stage.

Also, on a field-by-field basis (depending on what it holds):
- check not empty
- check length
- check against allowable characters  formats

I'm still battling with the whole escaped characters business. My hosting
supplier has magic quotes turned on, so on the page that receives the data
from the form, I run the $_POST variables through stripslashes(). And yet
the slashes are still there - eg, in front of apostrophes. Perhaps they've
been escaped twice for some reason. I take them out because the data is
going to be POSTed again before being written to the database. I guess I
need to experiment more.

Justin French [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message

 BTW: Allowing some tags with striptags() offers are great security risk:

 let's say you allow b tags -- then I can go:

 b onmouseover'javascript:window.close();'hahahaha/b  --  not good!!

 $a = array('one','two','three');
 $b = array(); $b[0] = 'one'; $b[1] = 'two'; $b[2] = 'three';
 $c = array(0 = 'one', 1 = 'two', 2 = 'three');
 
 Which one would you believe is enumerated, and which one is associative?

they'd all be enumerated, except perhaps $c -- but i've grown :) and now

Well, all these 3 arrays are _exactly_ the same. If you print_r() them
you'd see
Array {
0 = one
1 = two
2 = three
}
The key to this issue seems to be understanding that it makes no difference
how the array keys are constructed... an array is an association of key to
value, being a hash  always if you want to see it that way.

in my code

 $q = mysql_query ( SELECT production_id, title FROM productions ORDER 
BY title; );
 $this-all_productions[] = ;
 while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $q ) ) {  
   $this-all_productions[$row[production_id]] = $row[title];
 }

the array is kept in order when i foreach the array - wouldn't they sort
themselves into 0,1,2,3,4,5,etc if my while loop was populating an 
enumerated array?   or are all arrays in php actually a keyed hash?

You're chosing your own keys here - so this makes a perfect associative
array, even if the keys ($row['production_id']) would be a sequenced
number. If you would just add the titles up ($this-all_productions[] =
$row['title']), PHP would choose an index key for you - the most general
thing it can do is to enumerate it. Basically what it does is
 array[count(array)] = new_element

So much for the theory - what are you really trying to achieve? Maybe
there's something you can redesign so you're not relying on the fact if an
array is enumerated or not.

[PHP] Srange error

2003-03-20 Thread shaun
Hi,

I would be very grateful if someone could explain to me why this is
happening. I am trying to convert a date sent from a textfield. The
textfield is initially populated by a JavaScript calendar control. Using the
following code I am attempting to read in the date sent from the textfeild:

 //initialise dates for header of table
 if(isset($goto_date) == true){
  //use dates sent from form
  $full_date = date(dS of F, strtotime($_POST[input1]));
  $day = date(d, strtotime($_POST[input1]));
  echo full_date: $full_datebr;
  echo day: $daybr;
 } else {
  //use todays date
  $full_date = date(dS of F);
  $day = date(d);
 }

but i keep getting this output:

full_date: 24th of August
day: 24

the javascript populates the textfield in the form off dd-mm-.

Thanks in advance for any advice offered

thanks very much for your help - i understand now that no matter what
kind of array i think i'm making, it is being morphed into an associative
array.  i half-understood this from the docs, but was puzzled.. i expected
the behaviour of an array in other languages, which even if i were to
define an array in this sequence:

$arr[2] = z;
$arr[0] = x;
$arr[1] = y;

would shuffle itself internally into a sequence like: x, y, z.

but in php this obviously isn't the case, and it remains: z, x, y.

thanks again for your time.

Re: [PHP] Passing variable from webpage to php (newbie?)

2003-03-20 Thread Bobby Rahman
Hiya

It could need setting register_globals =on in your php.ini

if after that still problems then you may need to look into sessions and in 
particular session_start() and $_SESSION['varname'] and make sure the 
variables are global so that more than one script can use them.

Hope this steers you in right direction

Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2003 10:57:11 -0500
I think I already tried to post once, so sorry if this is a duplicate, but 
I
don't see my first attempt.  I am trying to do what should be a relatively
simple and basic task.  I've got a php script/page that has a switch/case
selection statement in it.  Obviously, depending on what value a particular
variable takes when passed to the script, the script SHOULD :) do different
things.  However, when I invoke the script using
www.somedomain.com/somephpscript.php?action=1  (substitute one with, 2, 3, 
4
or whatever) and then do a check whether any value is passed to my script,
it always tells me the value is empty ( if (empty ($action)) - it just
always thinks its empty.  I'm copying this script from a book, so I do not
have any reason to believe there is an error in the code, but obviously
something is not happening properly.  My thought is that perhaps something
needs to be turned on in the php.ini or in the apache httpd.conf file to
allow this variable passing to work.  Is there some other way to do this?

Sorry for the long paragraph sentence.  I'll be happy to post the code if
needed or provide any additional information or give the actual URL so you
can see what is happening.
Thanks for any thoughts

This is what I did for a dynamic zero-fill for renaming batches of files:

// Get Zero Padding For New Image Names
$zero_padding = strlen(count($image_array));

  foreach($image_array as $temp){
$n++;
$n_length = strlen($n);
for($i = 0; $i  ($zero_padding - $n_length); $i++){
$n = 0 . $n;
  }
$new_name = $image_inbox . / . $newName . - . $n . .jpg;
rename($image_inbox/$temp, $new_name);
  }


I'm not sure if this will be applicable to your situation, but it works
perfectly for me since it will zero-fill for any length of numbers and pad
the shorter numbers appropriately.

This dependes primarily on the application the _other_ PC has running.

Basically the answer to your question is yes if you are in control of the
website the _other_ PC just visits. This website needs some JavaScript to
refresh its content - that's where you can come in.

I've answered a similar question a week ago that you might find in the

I would be guessing that there is a mysql error so put in some checking and echo 
mysql_error()
Also count(id) will ever only return 1 row so you have to retrieve that to get the 
actual count.
An easy way is like this

if(!$result = mysql_query (SELECT count(id) AS id_count FROM listings WHERE agent = 
'$agent' AND child = '0')){
   echo 'Oops : '.mysql_error();
}else{
   $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
   echo 'count = '.$row['id_count'];
}

 I'm trying to query the database using a string pulled out of the
database
 and compare and get the id.  I can do it to a certain point and what
kills
 my query is single quotes.  I CANNOT figure out how to escape it.

 I DID THIS:
 $address2 = str_replace(', , $address);

 that worked on some, but not all.
 $address = stripslashes($store['address']);
 $address = str_replace(', , $address);
 $address = htmlspecialchars($address);
 $address = addslashes($address);

 anyone

 Some errors I have gotten back
 You have an error in your SQL syntax near 's Linen  Home'' at line
1
 and
 You have an error in your SQL syntax near 's 800 number.'' at line 1
You need to use addslashes() on any string you insert into your query.

[PHP] Random Number Generation

2003-03-20 Thread Christopher J. Crane
I have a script that loads 13 or more file names into an array. Then at
random I select one of the names out of the array. This files are background
songs used on my webpage. Streaming a different song each time the page is
refreshed or loaded. My issue is I do not want the same song to ever be
played back to back. How can I check for that and if the random file chosen
is the currently played file then pick another..

Here is what I have so far.
?PHP
$Music =
array(bk1.swf,bk2.swf,bk3.swf,bk4.swf,bk5.swf,bk6.swf,bk7.swf
,bk8.swf,bk9.swf,bk10.swf,bk11.swf,bk12.swf,bk13.swf);
srand((float) microtime() * 1000);
$rand_keys = array_rand ($Music, 2);
$MusicToPlay = $Music[$rand_keys[0]];
?

How do I pass the variable to the next page easily so that PHP will know
what is currently being played?

[PHP] Re: Anybody have any thoughts on Smarty?

2003-03-20 Thread David Eisenhart
Smarty is a fantastic tool.

One of it's really great features (compared with a couple of other
templating engines that I have looked at) is the inherent ability to include
logic (using smary syntax) in the templates. This'll sound a bit odd - after
all, a point of templates is to separate logic and presentation. However, it
is really handy to be able to include 'presentation logic' in the
presentation layer. For example, contained in a template a very simple eg
in pseudo terms:

if form validated then
show success message
else
show failure message

From your code you pass this template the form validated variable value and
it shows the appropriate message. Without the ability to do this (as in
other
templating engines) you find that your logic code becomes cluttered with
presentation issues. Hence Smarty facilitates a much cleaner separation of
logic and presentation.

However, this does mean that either your page designer has to get to grips
with introducing smarty code into his/her templates or you must add such
code to his/her templates. Though for the reason above (and others) it is
well
worth giving it a try.

Re: [PHP] Cleaning user data

2003-03-20 Thread CPT John W. Holmes
 --- John W. Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
  I disagree. I think stripping HTML from my text is a horrible thing. If
  I want to put a b in my text, then use htmlentities() and show me a
  b when I look at it. Obviously you don't want to evaluate HTML, but
  the end result should be that I should see exactly what I typed into the
  text box.

The real problem I have with strip_tags is that if I want to type smile or
grin, it's going to be stripped out and now I have to go back and edit my
code and change it to something else... If you just use htmlentities(), the
user is none the wiser.

  If you need to allow formatted text, then use something like BBcode
  where you can specify exactly what is allowed.

 Maybe there is something I'm missing, but I have always hated these
alternative
 markup languages like BBcode that seem to offer no benefit over HTML. If
you
 want to allow the b tag to be evaluated, you can do something like this
after
 you use htmlentities():

 $blah = str_replace('lt;bgt;', 'b', $blah);
 $blah = str_replace('lt;/bgt;', '/b', $blah);

 Of course, if people want the b to appear exactly as they type it, they
would
 either have to use lt;bgt;, or you would have to let them choose an
option as
 to whether they want to use HTML (much like slash code does).

That would work, too, I guess. If the user actually typed in lt; it would
be encoded as amplt; and not match something similar to a replacement like
you've shown.

You don't want to do matching like you've shown, though. If I put a b on
my page with no /b, then it's going to make everything on the entire page
following my post bold. When cleaning the data, you want to make sure you
match a pattern that includes both the start and end tag. You can use
regular expressions or go through character by character.

Write a should script ?PHP phpinfo() ? and put it on your server and

date() returns a unix timestamp, which is in seconds.  You are only adding one 
second.

Try using mktime, and increment hte month argument there.

[PHP] sorting an array

2003-03-20 Thread Steve Buehler
I am having problems sorting a multi-dimensional array.  I am hoping that 
somebody can help me figure out what I am doing wrong.  It should sort on 
the field than on the fac.  Here is my code:
-start code-
$sortterm;
get_locations();

function cmp ($a, $b) {
GLOBAL $sortterm;
return strcmp($a[$sortterm], $b[$sortterm]);
}
function get_locations(){
GLOBAL $sortterm;
$i=1;
while(($row=mysql_fetch_object($result))){
$locs[$i][loc_id]=$row-loc_id;
$locs[$i][fac]=$row-fac;
$locs[$i++][field]=$row-field;
}
	reset($locs);
	$sortterm=field;
	usort($locs, cmp);
	reset($locs);
	$sortterm=fac;
	usort($locs, cmp);
	reset($locs);
	while (list ($key, $value) = each ($locs)) {
		echo $locs[$key][loc_id]., .$locs[$key][fac]., 
.$locs[$key][field].br\n;
	}
}
-end code-

Here is how it comes out when run:
12, Johnson County Community College, C
11, Johnson County Community College, B
13, Johnson County Community College, D
14, Johnson County Community College, E
10, Johnson County Community College, A
8, Johnson County Girls Athletic Assoc, D
6, Johnson County Girls Athletic Assoc, B
7, Johnson County Girls Athletic Assoc, C
5, Johnson County Girls Athletic Assoc, A
9, Shawnee Civic Center, 1
1, Tomahawk Sports Dome, 1
2, Tomahawk Sports Dome, 2
3, Tomahawk Sports Dome, 3
4, Tomahawk Sports Dome, 4
As you can see, the fac is sorted correctly, but the field isn't.

Thanks

 I would be guessing that there is a mysql error so put in some checking and echo 
 mysql_error()
 Also count(id) will ever only return 1 row so you have to retrieve that to get the 
 actual count.
 An easy way is like this
 
 if(!$result = mysql_query (SELECT count(id) AS id_count FROM listings WHERE agent = 
 '$agent' AND child = '0')){
echo 'Oops : '.mysql_error();
 }else{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo 'count = '.$row['id_count'];
 }

[PHP] File management system

2003-03-20 Thread J J
Anyone have a good recommendation for a file
management system that would allow the average person
to browse certain files/directory on a web server and
possibly make edits.

Then the front-end would sort of catalog those files
and index them so the web user could browse/search and
open the files?

Something like:
Category1:
  file1 --- this file contains blah blah blah
  file2 --- this article talks about blah
Category2
  

So maybe if there was a way to tack on categories and
descriptions to files, that would be nice.



I found phpCommander or something like that after
looking through tons of applications on hotscripts,
most were junk.  It's fine for looking at
folders/files and editing, but there's nothing to
catalog or display the files on a front-end.

So I'm looking for good recommendations.  Thanks in advance!

Re: [PHP] Re: Creating graphs with PHP?

2003-03-20 Thread Alberto Brea
If all you need is a simple bar graph, you can:
1. make a 1-pixel gif
2. make a table with fixed-width tds on the same row (e.g. width 10 pixels)
3. in each td you put one gif with img src=xx width=10 height=xxx wherein the 
height is queried from your data source.
4. on the row below you put the day, month or whatever corresponding to the relevant 
gif
You can make it horizontal too.
If you want a line graph, you make a second transparent gif, make this the 
variable-height image, and put the visible gif at the top, so you make the line.
Hope this helps

 ordinary .html files.

[PHP] Addslashes problem (MSSQL)

2003-03-20 Thread Poon, Kelvin (Infomart)
Hi,

I have a problem that lets you add a record to a database.  THere is a
problem with it, and the following is the area of the program where it has
problem.



$created_date = date('m, d, Y');

$title = strip_tags($title);
$keywords = strip_tags($keywords);
$content = strip_tags($content);
$product = strip_tags($product);


if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
$title = addslashes($title);
$keywords = addslashes($keywords);
$product = addslashes($product);
$content = addslashes($content);
}

$query = SELECT * FROM knowledgeBase;
$result = mssql_query($query);

$ID = mssql_num_rows($result);
$ID += 1;

$query2 = INSERT INTO knowledgeBase(
ID,
Title,
Keywords,
Content,
[Created Date],
[Updated Date],
Product)
   VALUES(
'.$ID.',
'.$title.',
'.$keywords.',
'.$content.',
'.$created_date.',
'Never',
'.$product.');
$result2 = mssql_query($query2);



where my $content value is osmethign like this.

Step 1: Access the homepage
Step 2: type in your username under the field 'username' 

and after the addslashes funciton there would be \ around the 'username'
like this..
\'username\'and now after running this program I got an error message:

Warning: MS SQL message: Line 14: Incorrect syntax near 'username'.
(severity 15) in d:\apache_docroots\internal.infomart.ca\infodesk\kb_add.php
on line 119

Warning: MS SQL: Query failed in
d:\apache_docroots\internal.infomart.ca\infodesk\kb_add.php on line 119



does any body have any idea?  I did the same thing with another problem but
it worked fine.  I have no idea what the problem is.  I know I need to
addslashes to the string since I am putting it in the valuable
$query2..please advise..

THanks!.

MS-SQL doesn't escape with slashes. It escapes single quotes with single

Re: [PHP] internally stored binary image

2003-03-20 Thread Ernest E Vogelsinger
At 15:57 20.03.2003, [EMAIL PROTECTED] spoke out and said:
[snip]
In order to distribute a single script I would like to store a small
image internally. Is this at all possible with PHP? How would I go about
it? Please feel free to rtfm me to the relevant sections.
[snip] 

You could make some script to retrieve the hex values of the image byte by
byte, then create a source file like
$imgdata = '\xff\x19\x00\x12   etc...;

Then when you're about to send the image simply transmit the correct
header() and echo out the data.

This little sample works just perfectly:


// use one of your files here, of course...
$file = 'images/dart.gif';
$hf = fopen($file, 'r') or die(Can't open $file for reading);
$bin = fread($hf, filesize($file));
fclose($hf);
$asc = '$img_data = ';
for ($i = 0, $len = strlen($bin); $i  $len; ++$i) {
if ($i  !($i % 16))
$asc .= \ .\n\t\;
$asc .= '\\x' . bin2hex(substr($bin, $i, 1));
}
$asc .= ';';

// $asc now contains the hex-coded binary file.
// Example (a real gif - try it)
$img_data =
\x47\x49\x46\x38\x39\x61\x20\x00\x20\x00\xa2\xff\x00\x00\x00\x00 .
\xff\x00\x00\xff\xff\x00\x00\x00\xff\xc0\xc0\xc0\x00\x00\x00\x00 .

// Now write the stuff to a file
$hf = fopen($file.asc, 'w') or die(Can't open $file.asc for writing);
fwrite($hf, $asc);
fclose($hf);

// Here you may either include the file, or copy/paste its contents into
your own code.
// The next lines are just to test the stuff - adjust the Content-Type
header to your needs:

header('Content-Type: image/gif');
eval($asc);  // this will render the binary content into $img_data
echo $img_data;  // send it
exit;// and voila


Note that reading the file is only needed once as a tool to create the
ascii version of the binary file.

If you're using apache you can have per domain or per directory settings in 
either the httpd.conf file or in .htaccess files. And according to the manual 
you can even set session.auto_start dynamically from within php.

www.mydomain.com. I thought about just passing the session ID to www.securedomain.com, 
but if I need to destroy the session while the visitor is in www.securedomain.com, I 
am hoping this will also include destroying data from www.mydomain.com.
Basically, I am talking about a shopping cart system. If the user decides to stop half 
way through the checkout on the secure site and continue shopping in the store, I want 
the cart to remain. But if the user completes the checkout process on the secure 
domain, their cart should be empty when going back to the original domain.

Thanks for any help.

[PHP] credit card validations..

2003-03-20 Thread Edward Peloke
The owner of the php site I am working on just told me he want to do credit
card validations on the site.  Currently, we aren't doing anything with
credit cards.  I have no idea as to where to even start with this.  Should I
simply go the paypal route?

Credit card validation is somewhat involved but not terribly difficult.
There are several good tutorials (such as the one below) and many classes
and functions already written if you don't feel like reinventing the wheel.
Good luck.

[PHP] php, mysql, and method question

2003-03-20 Thread Charles Kline
hi all,

i have a question about a good method of handling this challenge.

i have a table that contains articles. i have another table which 
contains  the order 1 - 9 that i would like to display them in.

this part is done, and is not a problem. here is where I am not sure 
how to proceed.

1. tbl_display_order - can only have 9 records in it (or do i just 
ignore anything beyond 9?)
2. when a new article is added to tbl_display_order - it needs to get 
the field that contains it's order set to 1 so it shows up first when I 
display the articles, and all the other articles need to have their 
order number incremented.

Maybe there is a better way to do this? Just not sure. Maybe not with a 
database at all?

Thanks for suggestions.

Yes. For example, with MySQL, you just need to create a user with

[snip] 

To be able to actually charge a CC you need a contract with a clearing
house (FirePay,  for example). There's no standard to it; every
clearinghouse I've ever dealt with uses its own protocol.

Generally this involves transmitting data via POST and receiving
(asynchronously) transaction data via SSL. You might consider using cURL
for this kind of stuff; most of them have working examples in Java, PHP,
ASP, etc.

[PHP] To use PEAR::DB or the PHP database functions

2003-03-20 Thread Merritt, Dave
All,

I've always used MySQL databases and the MySQL functions in PHP for my code
in the past.  However, I'm now working on a project that I want the project
to be able to be database independent so that the user of the project can
use whatever database he/she wishes.  I'm looking primarily at providing
support for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle,  SQL Server databases.  What's the
general consensus on how to handle this?  Do I need to look at using
PEAR::DB so that the type of database is hidden from my code or would I
look at writing different include files for each database type and each of
the include files use the relevant PHP functions?  Or some other totally
different way?

[PHP] PHP Devel Environments???

2003-03-20 Thread Henrik Hudson
Hey List-

Any one have some input on some good GUI WYSIWYG devel enviroments for 
creating PHP scriptlets. The boss wants to lose the dependancy on the 2 
programmers (myself and another person) for every little piece of PHP code. 
Of course, the graphic designers have no desire to learn source code, so we 
have to see if there are any WYSIWYG's out there that will allow them to 
create code chunks to either do webforms or handle simple variable passing 
between pages?

My argument is that it is to wide open and there are too many variables that 
need to be taken into account for this to happen.

We did look at Dreamweaver MX, but it's PHP support is limited to syntax 
highlighting and being able to insert if and else clauses. I'd tell'em to use 
gvim, but I don't think that would fly :) The boss says there are some 
Dreamweaver extensions for doing some of this stuff, but I still question 
their quality for open ended stuff like writing PHP.

Thanks.

 zip file and unzip is not installed by on Unix servers. :-(

So either install it on the servers that need it, or distribute the un/zip
exe with your package in your projects local directory -- this also saves
you having to deal with different versions on different servers that may not
always do what you expect. At least this way it's a controlled environment.

to 1 so it shows up first when ...), so why not something like select *
from article_table order by id desc, limit 9 [assumes id is int not null
auto_incremented].
You could also increment the value in the field something like:
$result=mysql_query(select article_order from article table);
while ($array_result=mysql_fetch($result))
{
$article_order=$array_result[article_order]+1;
mysql_query(update article_table set article_order=$article_order where

[PHP] Is there a way to access all the variables in my script?

2003-03-20 Thread Daevid Vincent
Is there some global array or something that contains all the variable names
(not even values per se) that are used in my script.

Here's the scenario. Like most of you, I do a lot of mySQL db work. So I
tend to use this:

if (mysql_num_rows($result)  0) { 
  $row = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC);
  while(list($myVariableName,$sqlFieldName)=each($row)) 
{ $$myVariableName = $sqlFieldName; }
}

So now I have a bunch of variables all named say, $company_name,
$company_id, $company_phone, etc...

What I want to do is make a function that can step through all the $company_
variables and unset them all.
(I imagine I'll just string compare to company_ and then prefix the result
with $$, then set = , etc. you get the idea)

I suppose I could re-write all my code and use the $row['company_id'] method
instead then clear $row[] but it would be nice to know if there is a way to
do this 'my way' as well...

[PHP] php and forms

2003-03-20 Thread b b


 
Hi,
 This could be a silly mistake or it could be a sign
of configuratin problems. Simply put, my submitted
form variables are not reaching the recieving end:

 A form:

   form method=post action=testForm.php
input type=text name=testVar
input type=submit name=submit value=submit
/form

A recieving file testForm.php:
 html
body ?php
printf(brtestVar is : %s, $testVar);
?
/body
/html


When entering value like testtest in the form element
I still get the following in the recieving file:
  
testVar is : 


 i.e. the form variable is not submitted or not
recieved. I also tried doing it through the url
.../testForm.php?testVar=whatever  and still the
testVar is empty. 

 Is there a configuration problem I should be aware of
as clearly it is not a code issue? Also want to add
that php has been functioning otherwise including
using database connectivity ... So do I have to set a
variable in the configuration files of Apache to
enable  forms and url variables to be processed? 

 If anybody could shed a light on this I would be most
greatful

 Thanks,
b.

I think (without looking) Kevin's advice was to help you determine whether a
credit card number was of the valid format. Charging a credit card is not too
different online than it is at a physical cash register - you need a merchant
account, etc. Many banks provide some sort of API for you to use if you
establish a merchant account with them, especially since online transactions
have become more important.

Things like PayPal charge you a bit of money in exchange for them being the
merchant (as I understand it anyway).

So, there is no magic PHP code that is going to set this up for you. You need
to fill out some paperwork somewhere.

 How can I put out a Zero Fill for numbers
 The result should be
 
 $something=26;
 echo $something;
 
 e.g.
 026

I'm sure there is a better way, but I can add two lines of code between yours
above to accomplish what you want, resulting in this:

$something = 26;
$something = sprintf('%7d', $something);
$something = str_replace(' ', '0', $something);
echo $something;

But then again, I'm only serving maybe 5 million views in a month with it.

 In order to distribute a single script I would like to store a small
 image internally. Is this at all possible with PHP? How would I go about
 it? Please feel free to rtfm me to the relevant sections.
 [snip]

 You could make some script to retrieve the hex values of the image byte by
 byte, then create a source file like
 $imgdata = '\xff\x19\x00\x12   etc...;

 Then when you're about to send the image simply transmit the correct
 header() and echo out the data.

 This little sample works just perfectly:

 
 // use one of your files here, of course...
 $file = 'images/dart.gif';
 $hf = fopen($file, 'r') or die(Can't open $file for reading);
 $bin = fread($hf, filesize($file));
 fclose($hf);
 $asc = '$img_data = ';
 for ($i = 0, $len = strlen($bin); $i  $len; ++$i) {
 if ($i  !($i % 16))
 $asc .= \ .\n\t\;
 $asc .= '\\x' . bin2hex(substr($bin, $i, 1));
 }
 $asc .= ';';

 // $asc now contains the hex-coded binary file.
 // Example (a real gif - try it)
 $img_data =
 \x47\x49\x46\x38\x39\x61\x20\x00\x20\x00\xa2\xff\x00\x00\x00\x00 .

RE: [PHP] To use PEAR::DB or the PHP database functions

Hey List-

Any one have some input on some good GUI WYSIWYG devel enviroments for
creating PHP scriptlets. The boss wants to lose the dependancy on the 2
programmers (myself and another person) for every little piece of PHP
code.
Of course, the graphic designers have no desire to learn source code, so we
have to see if there are any WYSIWYG's out there that will allow them to
create code chunks to either do webforms or handle simple variable passing
between pages?

My argument is that it is to wide open and there are too many variables
that
need to be taken into account for this to happen.

We did look at Dreamweaver MX, but it's PHP support is limited to syntax
highlighting and being able to insert if and else clauses. I'd tell'em to
use
gvim, but I don't think that would fly :) The boss says there are some
Dreamweaver extensions for doing some of this stuff, but I still question
their quality for open ended stuff like writing PHP.

Thanks.

pritty simple to transfer some data like a currency exchange rate over the
web service. But how about a complete web portal? Connected to the same DB,
the php files hosted on my server, but the application served by a different

Maybe someone can point me into the right direction.

Hi guys,
we have been silent observers to this list over the last few weeks. 
most of our web-app development is done in cold fusion, and i am still coming to terms 
with php, our involvement with the language to date has been via phpnuke.

a while ago one of our tech guys showed me the output of a php page which showed our 
system passwords - 
since then he has subsequently moved on, we have changed all our passwords etc..

my q: 
does anyone have any knowlege about this type of script?
does anyone have a copy of it, so i can make sure there are no copies of it on my 
system - it would be a hell of a backdoor to leave on our server.

[PHP] Missing session vars when doing var_dump()

2003-03-20 Thread Gavin Jackson
Hi

I have come across a strange problem. I have an application that a user
logs into and when I find the user in the database I load all the custom
info for that use which I store. By the time I'm done, the session array
has 18 key's. When I do a var_dump($_SESSION) I sometimes get
18 variables and sometimes I only get 16. The two fields that are missing
are TEXT fields from a MySQL database and they also appear to be
the last two keys when var_dump() returns all 18 keys.

Does anyone know what is causing this, it's driving me crazy at the
moment with many late nights. The PHP version running is 4.2.3

[PHP] Call another program from withing a program

2003-03-20 Thread Kevin
I need to know if I am doing this the right way or if there is a better way
to do this.

Scenario, two programs. program_1.php and program_2.php.  Based on case
statement, program_1 could possibly call program 2.

Example:

switch ($page) {
case '1':
call program_1.php script
  break;
case '2':
do_some_stuff();
break;
}

The only way I could get that to work was to do a require/include or
redirect.  Example:

Exmaple 1:
switch ($page) {
case '1':
require program_1.php;
exit;
break;
}

Example 2:
switch ($page) {
case '1':
print META HTTP-EQUIV='refresh' content='0;URL=program_1.php';
exit;
break;
}

Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks
Kevin
