[PHP] Installing Imagemagick on Windows

2004-06-02 Thread Tan Ai Leen
Hi,
I need help with installing Imagemagick on Windows. I tried googling but 
there is no solution provided. I discovered that a lot of people are 
having the same problem as me. After placing the dll in the extension 
folder and adding in extension=php_imagick.dll into php.ini, Apache will 
hit error Unknow(): Unable to load dynamic library 
F:\php\extensions\php_imagick.dll.

I believe that my php.ini is configured correctly. I am able to load 
other extensions with out any error.
This is what is in my php.ini file

extension_dir = F:\php\extensions\
extension=php_imagick.dll
What should I do with the ImageMagick library? Is there a step by step 
guide on installing imagemagick? With versions of library and links to 
download them?

Thanks in advance,
Ai Leen

 Is any Linux techie out there willing to accept a small payment to upgrade
 my Linux dedicated root server from PHP 4.2.2 to PHP 4.3.3 (or 4.3.6,
 whichever is recommended)?  I need to leverage the latest version of GD
 Library for better quality picture uploads.  I'm a windows guy and don't
 have much experience with shell commands and Linux machines.

[PHP] Can session.save_path data be saved to a database instead of a file system?

2004-06-02 Thread Caleb Walker
I have 2 servers fail-over/load-balanced behind an F5
bigIP.  I want session data to be maintained in the event one server takes
a dive.  In this scenario, if a user is in the middle of doing
something while logged in, they will not have to lose all work and log
back into the server to continue working. Can that be done without
rewriting an application?
I saw a link here:
http://www.phpfreaks.com/quickcode/DB_eSession_class_securely_stores_PHP_sessions_in_a_MySQL_DB/286.php
but this seems to be something that would have to be written into the
application and I didn't write it and do not want to take on the
responsibility to do so from here.  Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thank You,
Caleb

 I have root access to my server.  It's a dedicated server with 1and1.com.

OK.

 I have zero experience with shell commands and will be working off of any
 directions I can find online.

There're plenty of those to be found. The list archives should have plenty of 
posts from myself (and others!) regarding the recompiling/reconfiguring of 
PHP and the installation of GD lib.

 I'm researching whether to upgrade PHP from 4.2.2 to 4.3.6 or just upgrade
 the GD Library from 1.8.4 to the latest.  But I'm still not sure if it's
 best to upgrade the entire thing or just the library.

Well one way to base your decision on salient facts is to find out what has 
changed between the 4.2.2  4.3.6 (and the intervening versions) by reading 
the changelogs. Then decide whether the bug fixes and improvements are worth 
your while to upgrade to.

 I'm totally new at installing apps via shell...if anyone is interested in
 doing it for a small fee please let me know!

If you're using a pre-installed dedicated server then it's more than likely it 
has a version of RedHat on it. You may be lucky and be able to upgrade PHP 
via RPM. But AFAIK RedHat has never (or hardly ever) provided PHP upgrades.

[PHP] text search in database

Hi,

I need to do a text search on some fileds in a database. I would like the users to be 
able to use some syntax like 'AND' 'OR' 'NOT' parentheses () and quotes to make their 
search queries more powefull. 

I face 2 problems :
1. parse the query
2. execute the search (create the appropriate SQL query)

Do you known of any existing package that could parse such a syntax and /or generate 
some kind of sql query?

Re: [PHP] RewriteUrl + open_basedir

2004-06-02 Thread Christophe Chisogne
Markus Post a écrit :
DocumentRoot /srv/www
RewriteRule ^/(.*)/(.*)$/$1/$2
This redirects the request http://domain.de/dir1/dir2 to the local files
/srv/www/dir1/dir2/ and works fine.
No RewriteRule necessary to do this: '/dir1/dir2' becomes '/dir1/dir2'
btw RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/(.*)$ /$1/$2 is little better
coz '.' can match '/' and /d1/d2/d3 is then no more ambiguous
See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html
and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/rewriteguide.html
php_admin_value open_basedir /srv/www/$1, but it doesn´t work.
open_basedir can use multiple (: or ; separated) dirs if you want
See http://www.php.net/features.safe-mode
Perhaps you meant something like this:
NameVirtualHost 1.2.3.4
NameVirtualHost 5.6.7.8
VirtualHost 1.2.3.4
  ServerName site1.com
  DocumentRoot /var/www/site1
  php_admin_value open_basedir /var/www/site1
/VirtualHost
VirtualHost 5.6.7.8
  ServerName site2.com
  DocumentRoot /var/www/site2
  php_admin_value open_basedir /var/www/site1
/VirtualHost

[PHP] [Newbie Guide] For the benefit of new members

2004-06-02 Thread Ma Siva Kumar
===
Please feel free to add more points and send 
to the list.
===
1. If you have any queries/problems about PHP 
try http://www.php.net/manual/en first. You 
can download a copy and use it offline also. 

Please also try 
http://www.php.net/manual/faq.php 
for answers to frequently answered questions 
about PHP (added by Christophe Chisogne).

2. Try http://www.google.com next. Searching 
for php YOUR QUERY may fetch you relevant 
information within the first 10 results.

3. There is a searchable archive of the 
mailing list discussion at 
http://phparch.com/mailinglists. Many of the 
common topics are discussed repeatedly, and 
you may get answer to your query from the 
earlier discussions. 

For example: One of the repeatedly discussed 
question in the list is Best PHP editor. 
Everyone has his/her favourite editor. 
You can get all the opinions by going through 
the list archives. If you want a chosen list 
try this link : 
http://www.thelinuxconsultancy.co.uk/phpeditors/
(contributed by Christophe Chisogne).

4. Not sure if PHP is working or you want 
find out what extensions are available to 
you?

Just put the following code into a file with 
a .php extension and access it through your 
webserver:

?php
phpinfo();
? 

If PHP is installed you will see a page with 
a lot of information on it. If PHP is not 
installed (or not working correctly) your 
browser will try to download the file.

(contributed by Teren and reworded by Chris W 
Parker)

5. If you are stuck with a script and do not 
understand what is wrong, instead of posting 
the whole script, try doing some research 
yourself. One useful trick is to print 
the variable/sql query using print or echo 
command and check whether you get what you 
expected. 

After diagnosing the problem, send the 
details of your efforts (following steps 1, 
2  3) and ask for help.

6. PHP is a server side scripting language. 
Whatever processing PHP does takes place 
BEFORE the output reaches the client. 
Therefore, it is not possible to access 
users' computer related information (OS, 
screen size etc) using PHP. Nor can you 
modify any the user side settings. You need 
to go for JavaScript and ask the question in 
a JavaScript list.

On the other hand, you can access the 
information that is SENT by the user's 
browser when a client requests a page from 
your server. You can find details about 
browser, OS etc as reported by 
this request. - contributed by Wouter van 
Vliet and reworded by Chris W Parker.

7. Provide a clear descriptive subject line. 
Avoid general subjects like Help!!, A 
Question etc. Especially avoid blank 
subjects. 

8. When you want to start a new topic, open a 
new mail composer and enter the mailing list 
address [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of 
replying to an existing thread and replacing 
the subject and body with your message.

9. It's always a good idea to post back to 
the list once you've solved your problem. 
People usually add [SOLVED] to the subject 
line of their email when posting solutions. 
By posting your solution you're helping the 
next person with the same question.

10. Ask smart questions

11. Do not send your email to the list with

upload your code, try the many pastebin 
websites (such as www.pastebin.com).

MySQL has a FULLTEXT index type which might provide what you need.  I'm 
also using a program called SWISH-E (http://www.swish-e.org/) to index 
my website but it also allows you to index data from any source by using 
a custom spider.  You could set this to extract data from your database 
in the correct format for indexing.

Yes, you can use a database to store session data and retain existing 
session manipulation methods.  Surprisingly, the PHP manual tells you how:

http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php
And lists a couple of examples, including this one at Zend:

[PHP] sessions handling

2004-06-02 Thread Dmitry Ruban
Hi folks,

We have two instances of apache/mod_php running on 80 and 443 ports
accordingly. For both mod_php we have the same dir (/tmp) to store session
information. Is it possible to mix sessions data up if user switches between
80 and 443 ports? I mean what if when user surfs over 80 port and has
already sessionID in this mod_php context(PHPSESSID stores in cookie), then
he jumps to 443 instance, would that mod_php correctly find proper session
file? Is it possible that PHPSESSID in 443 context hasn't been initialized
and mod_php won't get proper file?

RE: [PHP] sessions handling

2004-06-02 Thread Vincent DUPONT
Hi,

I beleive that if both servers run the same hostname (www.foo.com) (cookie domain) and 
both session files are stored in the same place (/tmp), then the session is unique for 
80 and 443 ports.

you could simply test this be adding a $_SESSION['foo']='port80'; on the HTTP server 
instance and trying to print($_SESSION['foo'] when the user enters the HTTPS (443) 
pages

However, i believe this could be a security issue if both secure and non secure sites 
use the same cookie.

keep us informed.

[PHP] spam filter

2004-06-02 Thread Merlin
Hi there,
I am working on a spam filter for email forms. To improve it it would be great 
to compare 2 text and to find out how equal they are.

Is there a function in php wich compares 2 text and returns a percentage of 
equality?

The system allready checks for spam keywords, but there are some spam text which 
are verry difficult to identify. So if a person submits the same text to more 
people this would be another factor to check.

Thank you for any help,

Note:  The valid range of a timestamp is typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901 
20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07 GMT. (These are the dates that 
correspond to the minimum and maximum values for a 32-bit signed

therefore your date range may be limited to no earlier than the Unix 
epoch. This means that e.g. dates prior to Jan 1, 1970 will not work on 
Windows, some Linux distributions, and a few other operating systems.

Use GET method instead of POST, but only in forms that don't change 
state on the server (i.e. search).

Use POST method only for forms that for example insert new entry in the 
db. And you should redirect right after making the action, so the posted 
page does not stay in the browser's history.

You can't resend it automatically otherwise you could post any arbitrary
data for the users.

The common solution for this is a middle-man technique. The middle-man is
a PHP page that hanldes the form submission, sends the email, submits in the
database, etc, and then forwards to another page using header(). Now, when
Back is used, they're taken back to the form they filled out and not the
page that processes the form; so there is no re-post request.

 Yes, you can use a database to store session data and retain existing 
 session manipulation methods.  Surprisingly, the PHP manual tells you how:
 
 http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php
 
 And lists a couple of examples, including this one at Zend:
 
 http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/code-gallery-wade8.php
 
 Mike

This looks like modifications that need to be made to the application.  I
dont really want to touch the application.  Instead I just want PHP,
through the php.ini file or whatever to take the session data and put it
in a database instead of the file system.  In doing it this way, I assume
that I will not have to touch somebody else's code.

Thanks for the response.

[PHP] image resize problems

2004-06-02 Thread Edward Peloke
I have looked at several of the functions and tried a few tutorials online
but am not having much luck for some reason resizing images.  I have this
code which works fine but everytime I try to add some resizing code, I get
the error that the image is not a valid image resource.  I have even
hardcoded the values to an image I know exists and get the same error.  I
would like to resize the images on upload to 250 wide but nothing seems to
work.

$upload_dir = ../images/property_$id;
  //When REGISTERED_GLOBALS are off in php.ini
  $_POST= $HTTP_POST_VARS;
  $_GET = $HTTP_GET_VARS;

  //Upload the file
if($_GET['method'] == upload)
{

  $file_array = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file'];
  $_SESSION['message'] = ;
  $uploads = false;
  for($i = 0 ; $i  $files_to_upload; $i++)
  {
if($_FILES['file']['name'][$i])
{
  $uploads = true;
  if($_FILES['file']['name'][$i])
  {
$file_to_upload = $upload_dir./.$_FILES['file']['name'][$i];
$thisName=$_FILES['file']['name'][$i];
$sql-query(update properties set

I've been doing some of the work with Dreamweaver MX, but I'm getting

Well
If you're doing record editing...or any form-based DB data editing, the 
PEAR package DB_DataObject_FormBuilder can do it for you. You 
(basically) give it a record and it builds the form and lets users 
update it. It will automatically insert / update based on what kind of 
data you give it. It has some very cool and powerful features.

  something while logged in, they will not have to lose all work and log
  back into the server to continue working. Can that be done without
  rewriting an application?
  I saw a link here:
 
http://www.phpfreaks.com/quickcode/DB_eSession_class_securely_stores_PHP_ses
sions_in_a_MySQL_DB/286.php
  but this seems to be something that would have to be written into the
  application and I didn't write it and do not want to take on the
  responsibility to do so from here.  Any thoughts would be much
appreciated.
 
  Thank You,
  Caleb
 
 
 
  Yes, you can use a database to store session data and retain existing
  session manipulation methods.  Surprisingly, the PHP manual tells you
how:
 
  http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php
 
  And lists a couple of examples, including this one at Zend:
 
  http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/code-gallery-wade8.php
 
  Mike

 This looks like modifications that need to be made to the application.  I
 dont really want to touch the application.  Instead I just want PHP,
 through the php.ini file or whatever to take the session data and put it
 in a database instead of the file system.  In doing it this way, I assume
 that I will not have to touch somebody else's code.

 Thanks for the response.

It's pretty simple. I'm using PEAR's HTTP_Session in combination with
PEAR::DB:
http://pear.php.net/package/DB
http://pear.php.net/package/HTTP_Session

Just set those two packages up, create a session table (see
HTTP_Session/Container/DB.php for the schema) and set this HTTP_Session
option:
HTTP_Session::setContainer('DB', array('dsn' = $dsn, 'table' = 'sessions',
'autooptimize' = true));

...and off you go.

Ideally you should change the lines where the session variables are set and
get to use HTTP_Sessions static methods instead. But this shouldn't be much
of a problem. It could even work without these changes by directly accessing
$_SESSION.

Bets regards, Torsten Roehr

Hmm, weird. The function should always be available, it's part of the 
core, even missing sendmail binary does not give this error.

[PHP] Finding the sizeof a variable....

2004-06-02 Thread Matthew A. Blasinski
Hi,
I'm wondering if there's something similar to the C sizeof operator in 
PHP?  I would like to find out how much space in memory a variable is 
actually using (and possibly adjust the max memory per script accordingly).

No, sizeof() http://us3.php.net/sizeof is not what I want :-(
Thanks!

You'll have to set the path to postfix's sendmail wrapper.  I think it's 
in /usr/sbin, which is probably not in your path.  So you either need to 
add /usr/sbin to your path, or set 'sendmail_path' in your php.ini file, 
then restart your webserver.

Not exactly what you want, but it's the closest you can get:
memory_get_usage()
I guess with a little experimanting you will be able to guess exact 
alocated memory.

For example strings seem to take strlen() + 110 (or 120?) bytes

I'm having a problem with a set_ini command... I need to be able to
set
the -f parameter (to set the originating address on my server). I am
getting
a false response code when I run the following command:

looks like sendmail_path has to be set in http.conf or php.ini

False response error? You mean parse error. It should be
ini_set(sendmail_path, /usr/sbin/sendmail -t 
-f.$DataUserInfo['OriginatingEmail']);

But that will not work, as sendmail_path is PHP_INI_SYSTEM - can be set 
only in php.ini or httpd.conf

You can use mail()'s fifth parameter if you are not under safe mode. Or 
connect directly to port 25 using any of the smtp classes.

Re: [PHP] Call to undefined function: mail() with SUSE 9.1

2004-06-02 Thread Curt Zirzow
* Thus wrote Chris W ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
 I just moved my site to a new install of SUSE 9.1 and get the error..
 Call to undefined function: mail()  when ever I try to send a message.  
 What is the easiest way to fix this since suse used postfix instead of 
 sendmail.

This happens  when php is compiled and it can't find the sendmail
program.

Sounds like a problem for the maintainers of the spam blocking software?
You can't correct the problem with the headers if you don't know what the
spam software is objecting to.  It may be objecting to the fact that the
source is 127.0.0.1?

[PHP] Re: Can session.save_path data be saved to a database instead of a file system?

2004-06-02 Thread Caleb Walker
 
 
 This is how I would do it and would require no additional changes to the 
 code - just set your auto prepend in a .htaccess file if you're using 
 Apache.

This sounds interesting.  Could you elaborate a little more?  I mean what
is the auto prepend and what is the syntax for the .htaccess?  Thanks
very much.

And I'm one of them. :-) I like the KR version because it saves 
verticaly space and most editors can't really handle correct tabbing 
when you put it after. IMHO it's just not necessary as ALL blocks 
should have braces, even those that are one-line. If you always use 
the braces,  you can looks for indenting as the open of the block and 
the end-brace (and un-indenting) as the close of the block.
I used to be a big fan of both versions, but honestly, I didn't care, 
as long as an app was consistent, so that one could become comfortable 
with it over time.  The reality is that good editors like BBEdit can 
help match braces, highlight code blocks, etc.

But recently, I've changed my tactic to whatever helps the code be as 
readable and clear as possible...

$file = 'a'; if(file_exists($file)) { include($file); }
$file = 'b'; if(file_exists($file)) { include($file); }
$file = 'c'; if(file_exists($file)) { include($file); } else { 
include('x'); }
$file = 'd'; if(file_exists($file)) { include($file); } else { 
include('x'); }
$file = 'e'; if(file_exists($file)) { include($file); }

is a lot clearer,line-efficient and faster to comprehend than...
$file = 'a';
if (file_exists($file)) {
include($file);
}
$file = 'b';
if (file_exists($file)) {
include($file);
}
$file = 'c';
if (file_exists($file)) {
include($file);
} else {
include('x');
}
$file = 'd';
if (file_exists($file)) {
include($file);
} else {
include('x');
}
$file = 'e';
if (file_exists($file)) {
include($file);
}
Of course, looping through an array of file names would be even 
clearer, but you get my point :)
