Hi all,
Cpanel is a control panel to manage accounts for ISP's (And espcially 
ISP's resellers). I knnow there is some librarys to directly manage 
the accounts from PHP-Scripts and I got some very small and 
undocummented samples.

I'm working on some scripts to manage the accounts directly from PHP 
(Scripts will be GNU/GPL licensed).
I haven't found good examples for this, but I have written a cpanel 
class that provides methods to query cpanel accounting information.

Sample methods :
userExists
fetchUser
listUsers
setCredentials
and the usual
kill(), suspend(), etc.
I had planned on polishing it and submitting it to PEAR, but I haven't 
found the time to do so.  Let me know if you need any specific 
functionality, and I can just paste that snippet for you.

I've got the script suplied by cPanel. Is not much to see there, but at 
least I have the parameters to call the functions and could understand a 
bit how it works. With that, I can start making some tests and make some 
samples to work.

At this moment I'm a bit busy in other projects, so I will test it as 
time permits... What I need is basically to automate the account 
creation and cancellation, nothing more, nothing less :)

Don't forget to post a notice when you submit your class to PEAR ;)

[PHP] Displaying Secure Server Lock Symbol??

[Jeff Swanberg]

Very new at this so pardon my ignorance:

Off of my regular server, I'm calling a script off of a secure server in
order to process a credit card inquiry.  I thought that, just by calling the
script off of the secure server, that the "gold lock" icon would
automatically appear but it does not.  Is there something I'm supposed to do
when going to that script to make that icon appear?

Right now my button click code looks like:
href="https://secure.plasticpayments.com/keatleyphoto/authorizenet.php?UID=<
? echo $UID ?>&id=">

What else need I do on my end?  Or, is the error in the authorizenet.php
script on the secure server?

I have had one of my own applets featured on this page so i can assure 
you with sufficient authority that a java applet can connect to the host 
that delivered it.  This just says the applet runs on the client - 
something I never disputed.

Anyway like I said in a previous message this is way off topic for this 
list so let's take it else where.

Java Applets cannot connect to the same host they were loaded from.  They run 
on the client machine as a local program.  I know this because I attempted to 
run an applet and have it connect to a mysql server the resided on the web 
server. 
 

You are trying to connect to the localhost which is your client machine 
(again i mentioned this in previus mail).  Localhost is not he 
originating server in your case so that connection is not allowed.


The applet could not connect using localhost as the domain name of the 
server. ( Which due to security settings was the only URL I could connect 
to.) 

 

If you want to know how to by pass the java applet security restrictions 
please read up on http://www.raditha.com/java/sandbox/

I'm surprised that no one else already replied to this?!?!  Anyhow, my 
answers are below.

Phil Dowson wrote:
Hi,
I am having a couple of difficulties with a script to parse XML. This may
well be because my 16 month kid was up all night, but I'm banging my head
against a wall right now.
OT: And this is why I'm still happily single.  But my time will come.
The script quite easily extracts one of the entries listed under 
but doesnt list the other. This is my first look into parsing XML, so I am
not sure of the terminology :-). How can I have both entries in this XML
file parsed to an array that I can use to build a table. (I just really need
the array, I can take it from there).
So, make all of the xml children listed under LIST_2 become part of an 
array?  I first have to ask if you're using PHP5 now (or will soon). The 
dev team has added a new simpleXML extension that handles this type of 
operation and it can be quite simple (imagine that!).  An example 
straight from the site shows how to turn xml into an array:


if (file_exists('test.xml')) {
   $xml = simplexml_load_file('test.xml');
   var_dump($xml);
} else {
   exit('Failed to open test.xml.');
}
?>
This handy extension also allows you to use xpath.  For an overview see:
http://www.php.net/simplexml
If you're using PHP4 then I would suggest you try this PEAR package.  It 
will create PHP objects from XML:

Before you're diving into the PHP core, have you tried using a DB (MySQL) as
the container for your session data? You could easily set up a test script
with PEAR's DB and HTTP_Session. I'm using this configuration and my
provider just upgraded to 4.3.6 - no problems at all.

It delimits your variable so PHP knows what to interpret as a variable and

$ar[1] = 'foo';
echo "Value is {$ar[1]}"; // Value is foo

$ar = 'foo';

Re: [PHP] Simplistic PHP tutorial

I disagree with the suggestion that you need to or should have programming
experience to learn PHP, although it is helpful.  There are a few books out
there (and books probably are the best starting point) that assume the
reader has no programming background, although you need to be familiar with
HTML (and not just creating HTML pages with a WYSIWYG like GoLive or
FrontPage).  Larry Ullman's book is a good example (PHP FOR THE WORLD WIDE
WEB, Peach Pit Press).

are you saying you already have the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name)?

$search_for_list[$i] is an 'Array' which is followed by the string '[0]' ...
how is PHP supposed to know you mean
$search_for_list[$i][0]?

echo "\"{$search_for_list[$i][0]}\""; will work, btw.

Re: [PHP] Sessions simply do not work?

[Michael R. Wayne]

Sessions do not work properly for me.  Thanks to other people on
this list, we've proven that the test script I am using works fine
for other people.  So, something is wrong with PHP on all of my
systems since the same script fails (see previous posts) on multiple
servers for me.

So, I am now seeking information on how to debug PHP (not my
script but PHP itself) to determine where the failure lies.

Help??

Sure you can.  When you use a custom session handler then setting / getting 
the $_SESSION[] variables will use sess_write and sess_read in order to 
write/read that information.  I think the only problem with using $_SESSION 
variables is when you use session_register.  So, I just use $_SESSION for

2)  How can I pass objects from one page to another, if I am using the

You'll still persist sessions as you would without the custom session 
handler, e.g. sending the session ID as part of the URL.  The main 
difference is that now you have a custom sess_open function to tell PHP 
where / how to retrieve the session information for that user.

[PHP] Parse XML

[Phil Dowson]

Hi,

I am having a couple of difficulties with a script to parse XML. This may
well be because my 16 month kid was up all night, but I'm banging my head
against a wall right now.

The script quite easily extracts one of the entries listed under 
but doesnt list the other. This is my first look into parsing XML, so I am
not sure of the terminology :-). How can I have both entries in this XML
file parsed to an array that I can use to build a table. (I just really need
the array, I can take it from there).

Thanks !

Phil

Here's my code (please let me know if I'm missing anything really simple):


== PHP CODE

 $val) {

   if($val['type'] == "open") {
 array_push($hash_stack, $val['tag']);
 }
   elseif($val['type'] == "close") {
 array_pop($hash_stack);
 }
   elseif($val['type'] == "complete") {
 array_push($hash_stack, $val['tag']);
 eval("\$ret[" . implode($hash_stack, "][") . "] =
'{$val[value]}';");
 array_pop($hash_stack);
 }

  }
print_r($ret);
?>

So it seems a PHP4 bug, now corrected in PHP5-RC.

Waiting for a stable release of PHP5, it seems I need to add a "tiny fuzz factor"

where 3rd decimal is 5.

I'm working on Euro conversions, this isn't a good new...:(

It seems that people have forgotten last week's postings.  To recap:

Session support worked fine in 4.1.2.  It's broken in 4.3.4 and 4.3.6.

The relevant session variables are:
   Session Support  enabled  (as per phpinfo)
   session.auto_start   On or Off (makes no difference)
   session.use_cookies  Off <- not using cookies
   session.name PHPSESSID
   session.use_trans_sidOff (trans_sid worked with forms in 4.1.2)
   session.gc_maxlifetime   1440
Other things people have asked about:
   url_rewriter.tagsa=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry

Environment
   FreeBSD 4.8, Apache/1.3.31 (Unix) PHP/4.3.6 mod_ssl/2.8.17 OpenSSL/0.9.7d 

The session directory is writable and the files are getting properly
written to that directory as shown below.

I invoke the script from a browser and see the following:
   Stage:0 SessionID: 509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201   
   ___ [Submit]
   Stage:1 SessionID: 509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201
   Request: Array ( ) 
   GET: Array ( ) POST: Array ( [field] => ) COOKIE: Array ( ) 

Checking the session directory, I see an appropriately named file:
   -rw---  1 nobody  msen  10 May 25 12:00 sess_509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201
containing
   stage|i:1;
The Apache log contains two lines.  The first does not contain the 
browser version and the second one does:
   "GET /g/xxx.php HTTP/1.0"
   "GET /g/xxx.php HTTP/1.0" 200 476 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; MSIE 5.5; 
Windows 98) Opera 7.02  [en]"

So I enter foo in the form and hit Submit.  The browser screen shows
that the script failed to use the session variable, but it remembers
it:
   Stage:0 SessionID: d7002911afdc01a5218e06af2b8f02ad   
   foo [Submit]
   Stage:1 SessionID: d7002911afdc01a5218e06af2b8f02ad
   Request: Array ( [PHPSESSID] => 509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201 [field] => foo ) 
   GET: Array ( [PHPSESSID] => 509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201 ) POST: Array ( 
[field] => foo ) COOKIE: Array ( ) 
The session directory now contains TWO files:
   -rw---  1 nobody  msen  10 May 25 12:00 sess_509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201
   -rw---  1 nobody  msen  10 May 25 12:03 sess_d7002911afdc01a5218e06af2b8f02ad
each containing:
   stage|i:1;
and the Apache log once again has two lines.  The browser has passed back
the original session ID but PHP has ignored it and assigned a new one.
   "POST /g/xxx.php?PHPSESSID=509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201 HTTP/1.0" 200 605
   "POST /g/xxx.php?PHPSESSID=509012dd5633cba355c270f3934d1201 HTTP/1.0" 200 605 
"http://SERVER/xxx.php"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 2000) Opera 6.05  
[en]"

Now, I hit Submit once more and PHP does manage to re-use the session!  And it
will continue to do so until the script is re-invoked by another browser:
   Stage:1 SessionID: d7002911afdc01a5218e06af2b8f02ad   
   foo [Submit]

[PHP] RE:php and java applets

[Ben Ford]

This is straight from the http://java.sun.com/applets/  web page:
" When you use a Java technology-enabled browser to view a page that contains 
an applet, the applet's code is transferred to your system and executed by 
the browser's Java Virtual Machine (JVM). "

Java Applets cannot connect to the same host they were loaded from.  They run 
on the client machine as a local program.  I know this because I attempted to 
run an applet and have it connect to a mysql server the resided on the web 
server. 

The applet could not connect using localhost as the domain name of the 
server. ( Which due to security settings was the only URL I could connect 
to.)

Personally, if I was teaching someone programming concepts from scratch I
would start them with Javascript. It's mostly platform-independent, you
don't need to install any software, and you don't need to upload your files
to a server that has PHP installed. Most of the basics (functions,
variables, math) are the same in php, perl, flash, and Javascript, and
Javascript is the simplest one in terms of getting started and testing your
code quickest.

There are some differences, of course, but you'll always be double-checking
your syntax anyway.

I like the PHP book from Wiley. And MySQL/PHP Database Applications from M&T
Books.
For Javascript, buy the cheapest, oldest used book you can find. Or Inside
Javascript from New Riders.

Luck.

Nearly everyone here (including me) started off on PHP via a book, although
you CAN learn PHP without spending a single cent and learn it online, I too
would suggest you take the book route. There have been a lot of good books
mentioned by the others so have a look at them and the book that I stared
on: "PHP blackbook", pretty good and starts from a real newbie perspective.

I don't mean to discourage you but you must/should have some prior
experience with programming or you are going to find this very very tough,
that said, best of luck, and _when_ you stumble across problems you will
find this list is very friendly in helping you out.

Welcome to PHP.

Cheers,

Small clarification.
if an applet is launched from naturestreast.com it can connect to 
naturestreast.com. The only time it cannot connect to that server is 
when there is a firewall or proxy getting in the way. 

 It couldn't connect using localhost as the domain name of the

I'm surprised with this note on manuals. I do not know in other places, 
but in the European Union there are laws and directives that obligates 
to always round to 5/4 in currency operations (Specially on Euro 
Conversions). It means that 5 and above rounds always up, anything 
bellow 5 rounds always down. So, 0,655 must round to 0,66 and 0,654 must 
round to 0,65. In this case, nothing to do: It is the law.

And ... the funny note on laws (almost on spanish laws) says that 
computer programs wich round in a different way are not considered valid 
reasons to not round as stated above.

I would suggest checking into a book that has a few chapters on some of
the basics; however, that also has a lot of the the advanced stuff. You
will soon be wanting to know more as you progress and it is better to
find a book that has both. New Rider publishing has a couple great PHP
books out there now that are really good too.

Sounds like you are using a dom parser and not a sax parser. I would

One of the best I've seen, (from a beginners standpoint), is a book from
Peachpit Press: "PHP for the World Wide Web" 2nd Edition by Larry Ullman -- ISBN

Isn't there some "rule" where you round up on odd numbers and don't round up
on even, otherwise it comes out unevenly rounded up?

So 0.15, 0.35, 0.55 will be rounded up to 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6, respectively,
whereas 0.25, 0.45, 0.65 will be rounded down to 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6,

I've noticed this non-coherent approximation behaviour when

It's a my error or should be a bug?

[PHP] Re: Multiple substring replacement

Because it doesn't replace the newlines, just inserts "" before them...
I liked the implode solution ... (shoulda figured, since I come from a

[PHP] R: [PHP] Reading from XML file

[Alessandro Vitale]

I had a similar problem on my system too. In my case I fixed the problem
simply outputting some information during the processing (I would recommend
a process bar or something like that). The process itself was correct
anyway, but doing that I was getting the expected behaviour from the
browser: showing me that the page transfer was finished.

good luck

Oggetto: [PHP] Reading from XML file


I have a PHP script who reads data from a XML file uploaded via http form.
This file is about 15 MB. The script builds a query of thousands inserts as
many as the products the XML file contains (more or less 4 inserts).
After 4 minutes the httpd process aborts by itself. What can it depend on? I
have also increased the memory_limit parameter in php.ini to 32 MB and
set_time_limit to 0. What can I do anymore?
Thanks.

Use a single insert statement instead of 40,000  - or -
Drop the primary key before the insert and recreate it after wards. - or -
save data into a csv file and use  'load data in file'
Having said that the page shouldn't stop loading after 4 minutes if you 
use set_time_limit please see if you have some other setting that may be 
killing it.


Thanks.

Re: [PHP] Sessions simply do not work?

[Brent Baisley]

I've never had a problem using sessions. Do you have a sample piece of 
simple session code that isn't working? You also need to have cookies 
enabled on your client if you are using the default session management 
technique. Your very first line of code, before you do anything else, 
should be session_start(). Actually, it can be in and "include" file, 
but I recall having problems if I did other stuff first. For instance, 
all my php files, except the logion, begin like this:

require('sessionInit.php');

That file checks for an existing session and retrieves session 
variables or redirects to a login screen if no session was found. Also, 
check your php configuration for sessions. You can use phpinfo() to 
check your configuration, there is a section on sessions. You might 
even have session support disabled.

In my continuing efforts to actually get sessions to work, I upgraded
to PHP 4.3.6 and apache 1.3.31.  This did not make the slighest

So, does ANYone have ideas of how to debug this?  Or is PHP simply
broken and no longer able to maintain sessions?

I usually get the md5 checksums and download the files from separate sites 
where possible. The chances that both sites are compromised are (hopefully) 
minimal. To be extra paranoid you may want to check what OS the sites are 
using and select sites which are running different ones.

It seems to need to authenticate. The mail() function does not support 
authentication.

You may want to use this class that comes with a wrapper function named 
smtp_mail() that emulates the mail() function and lets you specify the 
user name and password in the smtp_mail.php script, so you only have to 
include that script and rename the mail() calls to smtp_mail() to solve 
your problem.

No. Because the file upload process is completed before your php script gets 
to run.

As you haven't stated what error you're getting my guess is that most likely 
it's because you don't have the font file installed on your "non-windows" 
machines. Another thing is that imagettftext() seems to be very finicky and 
needs the full path to the font file.

Re: [PHP] List all files in remote url ?

Hi List,
I am trying to list all files in a remote url for processing into my attempt

The manual has nothing on this, as I can see, and searching the web has
drawn a blank.
So I ask the list if there is a way of doing it.
The idea is:
Domain name = domain.com
Then fopen or opendir or something on the domain name to get a list of files
found
As far as I know, this can't be done. You have to start fetching a file 
(usually index.html) and then find all links in there and follow them. 
That is why the Search Engines are called Spiders or Crawlers. They 
can't fetch everything. The "crawl" along the "net" that is made up by 
links.

HTH,

If you're using Apache have a look at the alias directive.
If you're using some *nix system use symbolic links.
