why this is occuring.

As Justin stated, doing this (use of .htaccess) is possible
if your host allows it. The following will work in
.htaccess:
php_flag register_globals on

This will not work as expected, $_GET['foo'] will not
be $foo with register_globals set via ini_set().

This will not work, the whole point of register_globals is
to register variables into the global scope, which is what
$GLOBALS is. You're also trying to rewrite a ton of variables,
such as $_GET. Not a good idea. To see what I mean, try:
print_r($GLOBALS);
Also note that $GLOBALS lives within $GLOBALS. As do all
the PHP variables.

Just to be clear to everyone, register_globals is a directive that
can be set in php.ini any time, in any version of PHP. Also read
about the mysterious variables_order directive.
> Using the above code, we scroll through the $GLOBALS array, and for
> each key (eg foo) we assign a var of the same name (eg $foo) and

As stated above, this will not work. register_globals = on will
add 'foo' to $GLOBALS.

> though sorry.
foreach has been around since PHP 4.0.0, see php.net/foreach
for PHP 3 alternatives.
Now, to hack them old scripts to work, consider using either
extract() and/or import_request_variables(). These will allow
you to easily mimik register_globals at runtime. I believe
the following is a pretty good hack to get the job done:
Goal: register a lot of variables into the global scope
order: gpcss (order of $types_to_register)
$types_to_register = array('GET','POST','COOKIE','SESSION','SERVER');
foreach ($types_to_register as $type) {
$arr = @${'HTTP_' . $type . '_VARS'};
if (@count($arr) > 0) {
extract($arr, EXTR_OVERWRITE);
}
}
Granted that it may not be identical to your register_globals,
it may or may not be what you want so adjust accordingly.

[PHP] Re: Postnuke Anyone ?
Kirk,
Thanx for your help, I've tried with another script and it worked, I
successfully retrieved variable content after issueing a POST, I had
to add my code after the heather code --->
>? footer code ?>
This code simply posts the form and uses javascript to validate form
contents before submit. But I still couldn't make my prior code to
work, because variable data is not outputed to mysql db, and I'm
getting parsing errors.
BTW is there a way to know the type of error code is producing ?
TIA
Cheers,
Rick

RE: [PHP] Tailing a log file {!?}
> Is there a tail util for NT/W2K? Almost certainly there will be a tool that will read the end of files. The problem will be in what you want to look at. If you want to look at log files on NT/2K then, AFAIK, they aren't actually vanilla text files so a tail util won't do the job. I'm not actually sitting near an NT/2K box at the moment so I can't check that for certain.

[PHP] Register Globals workarounds
Hi all,
For those faced with the task of updating 100's or 1000's of pages that
assumed register_globals on, I've found a couple of solutions which can work
as a temporary solution whilst you re-engineer your pages (as I plan to do).
1. simple: ask your ISP to change php.ini :)
2. use a .htaccess file to change register_globals for your domain / dir, as
long as your Apache config file allows it.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php
3. (untested) use ini_set() to turn them back on at a per-script or
per-config file level.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php
4. add this code to the top of your pages, or in a common library of code /
config file:
$value)
{ $$key=$value; }
?>
If you have this url: page.php?foo=bah, with register_globals off, $foo will
not be available in your script automatically, as it was in older PHP
versions.
Using the above code, we scroll through the $GLOBALS array, and for each key
(eg foo) we assign a var of the same name (eg $foo) and assign it the
matching value (eg $foo = "bah").
The ultimate (secure) solution would be to get your code up to scratch with
the new set-up (and I plan to do this, ASAP), but I myself do not have time
for this, given that I have to update MANY sites within a short time frame,
and my ISP is planning a merge to the new version very soon.
I think foreach() was only available in newer versions of PHP though sorry.
Hope this helps.

Re: [PHP] Who's having a good hosting experience these days?
Cheap? I've been with experthost.com for around 8 months, with very little to complain about... I've got a reseller account with about 12 domains, so i'm paying around US$6each, and I think the standard is US$15each for one, $10ea for two, and then a sliding scale up to 25 domains @ $5ea or something. It *shouldn't* be about the money, but I'm currently making a healthy profit out of hosting some client domains under my account. Reliable? They have intelligent support staff on 24/7, and they've had one service fallout in this time. It was a biggie, and I had to reload some data from my local copy, but I'd like to believe this was a one-off. Fast? The service seems fast (although I'm in Australia, so pings times are affected by sheer distance). Feature Rich? 50meg, 20POPs, redirects, groups, auto-responders, 2GB bandwidth, MySQL, webmail, recent versions of Apache/MySQL/PHP, intelligent support staff, etc etc. I'm pretty happy. Better still, they offer a free 1 month test account, so you can try them for yourself.

Just as the manual says, the 4th parameter which is optional allows you
to specify additional headers.
Try mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "My Subject", "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine

I think you're going to have a good time with . You could try
swapping for each space but they're sometimes wider than normal
spaces and I suspect may have other weird side effects as well.
As a print designer in a former life, by the way, the thought of you
trying to format something with spaces makes my skin crawl. But I'm trying
to keep my cool.

John,
Your mysql_db_query should contain either "DBWEB" (with
quotes) or $DBWEB (a var). Just DBWEB is an error.
Also, from the manual re: mysql_db_query
Note: This function has been deprecated since PHP 4.0.6.
Do not use this function.
Use mysql_select_db() and mysql_query() instead.
Your SQL query is incorrect. The strings you use to identify
a column contain "_" instead of ".". Perhaps just an artifact
of your mailer, but the query as it is should be throwing
"unknown column t_city_name" errors. Try adding some "as"
clauses into your query to name these "virtual" columns.
Or replace the "_" with ".".
Hey, and it's nice to see a normalized database for a change :)
Your coding formatting style is likely to cause you problems.
You have (partially) indented the code the way you want to
behave logically, but your braces are all over the shop.
Try adopting one of the coding styles commonly in use and
that will almost certainly make your life easier. I use the
K&R "one true brace style" because I'm a C hacker from way
back, but you might like an extra line break before a "{".
As for this function, the first time through the loop,
unless the cityname is not "" you return 0. Since you test for
a blank cityname, I assume that's a possible return value from
the database. In this case you shouldn't return 0 then, but
instead loop though to the next result in the result set.
Try this:
function check_city_from_plz($str) {
// connect and select database
$city_query = "select distinct t_city.name AS t_city_name,
t_city.id_city AS t_city_id_city from
t_city,t_zipcodecity where
(t_city_id_city = t_zipcodecity_id_city) and
(t_zipcodecity.zipcode like '$str')";
$city_result = mysql_db_query(DBWEB, $city_query);
if ($city_result) {
while ($q = mysql_fetch_array($city_result)) {
$city_id = $q["t_city_id_city"];
$cityname = $q["t_city_name"];
if ($cityname != "") {
r["city_id"] = $city_id;
r["cityname"] = $cityname;
return $r;
} // close if
} // close while
// return 0 if no matches after iterating through data
return 0;
} // close function

I have been doing that for quite some time and I can tell that it is not worthy to cache just database query results but rather the pages that are generated with the data that is returned with such queries.

Re: [PHP] PHP compared to JSP
Food for thought... There are a lot of performance issues outside of PHP... MySQL - version 4.0.x supports caching... Apache 2.0 - is now threaded... Memory is now cheap... Increase the server's memory You may also want to consider Zends Optimizer and Accelerator if you need additional boost in performance.

RE: [PHP] PHP compared to JSP
Does anyone think caching should be built into php for it to edge out the competition? (like what smarty is doing) I mean a static page will always serve up faster then a dynamic one. Also even if you are getting 100 pages/sec on your database, you could cache it for 5 seconds and you save 500 accesses to your database. Yeah the page would be at most 5 seconds old but no one would know. Plus if you are a crappy programmer then it would mask how slow your code is :-) -Original Message- From: Miguel Cruz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: May 5, 2002 3:01 AM To: Pag Cc: Luc Saint-Elie; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] PHP compared to JSP On Sat, 4 May 2002, Pag wrote: >> Does PHP compile : NO >> Does the user loading same page for 2nd time gets better response : YES >> it can if caching is provided > > On a side not..isnt caching a bit like going against why PHP was built > in the first place?

Sometimes the developer knows how stale information can get before it needs to be refreshed. An awful lot of pages fetched with GET args are just straight-up retrievals from mostly-static databases, and can be cached with impunity. Also, there are other types of caching. On a multi-use machine that is busy with other stuff but not getting a lot of web traffic, httpd may have been paged out.

Hi guys,
just a simple question, how would I go about displaying the last 100 lines
of a log file?
I know that on the command line it's:
tail -n 100 access_log
Is there a PHP function to do this?
Cheers,
Liam

Not that I know of, but the process is pretty simple. Seek to the end of
the file, then read chunks backwards, spitting out a line each time you
see a line break.

View the source of the page displaying the retrieved data. If the text
displays on multiple lines there, then you just need to call nl2br() on
the string to convert internal line breaks to HTML breaks.
If the text does not show line breaks in the source (or when you use the
mysql CLI to query), then you need to change the parameters of the
. Probably but I'm not 100% sure offhand.

Hi
You need

$result will be an array with the output of the command.

[PHP] Please, can you help me?
Hello! I have a big problem and cannot find the answer anywhere, so please, help me if you can. When I use fwrite() function on webserver, it sometimes happens, that more then one user accesses the file and the result is, that the file is corrupted or truncated. A good example of this problem is webpage access counter. I know, that I can use MySQL to count accesses, but on some servers I can't. When I have this counter as a file on my server and read/write into it, there's only a question of time, when it corrupts itself. Please, can you help me to solve this problem? I think, that the easiest solution should be to prevent more that one user to write to that file, but I have no idea, how to do this. Or is there any other way to prevent that files from their corruption? I'll be very happy, if you help me with this problem. Thank you in advance.

Straight from the manual at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php
PHP is capable of doing this transparently when compiled with
--enable-trans-sid. If you enable this option, relative URIs will be
changed to contain the session id automatically. Alternatively, you can
use the constant SID which is defined, if the client did not send the
appropriate cookie. SID is either of the form session_name=session_id or
is an empty string.
You probably didn't have --enable-trans-sid when you configured/compiled PHP

You could use cookies and should use cookies if your looking for a simpler way, sessions as well. If you don't mind information not being around the next time the user returns (after closing his/her browser) you could write to the always global always available $_SESSION array. For example $_SESSION['foo']="bar"; and $_SESSION['bar']="foo"; It's not writing to a file, but is one simple command and the information you store will follow them anywhere within your site. If you want save the information you could just as easily use $_COOKIES. But would require that you use the setcookie command. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] function sql question
I've got a small function which checks city name with post codes
And because this needs to be checked in several scripts I want to have it in
my common functions file
and include it !
require ("common_funtions.inc");
and then use it
if (!check_city_from_plz($t_zipcode)){
echo "Your city does not exist with the
plz!
";
}
It doesn't work though, I'm sure it something simple but can someone please
point me in the right direction !
This is the function itself
function check_city_from_plz($str) {
connect and select database
$city_query = "select distinct t_city_name,t_city_id_city from
t_city,t_zipcodecity where
(t_city_id_city = t_zipcodecity_id_city) and (t_zipcodecity_zipcode like
'$str')";
$city_result = mysql_db_query(DBWEB, $city_query);
if ($city_result) {
while ($q = mysql_fetch_array($city_result)) {
$city_id = $q["t_city_id_city"];
$cityname = $q["t_city_name"];
if ($cityname !="") {
return 1;
return $city_id;
return $cityname;
} else {
return 0;
}

RE: [PHP] RE: SSH
Well, as described below, the key is read by a root-owned, sudo-gated shell script which executes a specific remote command. And of course the arguments, if any, are strictly sanitized by the shell script. So the worst someone could do is cause the premature execution of that remote command. Also, I rarely if ever work on servers shared with untrusted users, which changes the security situation somewhat. People in that situation are going to have it much harder. But if PHP's in safe mode, they can use a similar scheme but provide access to their individual user ID rather than 'nobody'. miguel On Sun, 5 May 2002, Insomniac Admin wrote: > Wouldn't that be like very insecure?

[PHP] Download queueing
Hi! I'm writing a download queueing script, and it works quite well, except for one thing: I'm unable to determine the amount of data actually transfered to the client. The script sends a portion of a file (eg. 10 kb) and waits for a second, this way achieving a transfer rate of 10 kb/s. The problem is that the client doesn't necessarily have to receive the data as soon as the script sends it, because of server buffering. Is there a way to determine how much data is still in the server's buffer? Or maybe it is possible to determine if all the data outputted by the script has been sent to the client?

Wouldn't that be like very insecure? I wouldn't need to root the server in order to use that connection! Example Scenario: I generate a key pair from server local to server remote, and place the auth key in a 0400 moded file owned by root, but accessable by "nobody" (as this is the uid I will be sshing out as). Multiple people have access to write php scripts on this server. Now *anyone* who is able to execute commands as "nobody" can (very very easily) get from server local to server remote without the need for a password to be entered.

Remember to check the RSA key pattern. My experience, at least with recent SSH versions, is that they try very hard to verify stdin is an actual pty before accepting a password from it. This is specifically to stop people from storing passwords in cleartext. However, you can do wonderful things with key pairs. Read all about ssh-keygen.

You might want to use .php file extension and /include/ directory to prevent
Miquel stealing your pressious passwords :))
file.php?file=inc.foobar.php
-
include("include/$file");
Just a thought :)))

[PHP] Initializing a db $var and retrieving a required CONSTANT
Hi Folks,
Two questions:
1) Initializing a db $var
What's the best way to code $dbvar, which is coming from a database query, given the
new superglobals:
$data = mysql_fetch_array();
$dbvar = stripslashes($data['someFieldName']);
Is there a newer or better way to initialize $dbvar?
2) retrieving a required CONSTANT
If a CONSTANT is defined on foo.php and called with a require_once("foo.php") on
another page called bar.php, then CONSTANT is not global and is not called with the
new supernotation, but rather same as before:
$someVar = CONSTANT;
... correct?
richard.

Re: [PHP] Tailing a log file {!?}
check directory rights.
If need be, passwd the user and give it a shell.
then try on the console as the webserver user
to tail the file.

Re: [PHP] Tailing a log file {!?}
I have PHP's safe mode enabled, can't use backticks.
And no I can't disable it, I'm hosting a few hundred sites =)
I looked up "return_var" in the manual and got nothing, had a read of
return() but don't quite understand how that would benefit what's happening.
Could you please give an example?
Thanks!
Liam

I prefer something simpler than exec(), try:
$output = `tail -n $len /www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/$open`;
echo $output;

Still returns nothing under the top text.
All log files are chmodded 644 and are owned by the web server.
The paths to the files are correct.

1) Check that you have permissions to access the file
2) Add a 'return_var' to your exec() call. And check what this contains.

Re: [PHP] Tailing a log file {!?}
Sorry, I should have included this in the first email...
Here's my full code. Page is called like this:
log.php?open=access.log&len=150
=
Excecuting: tail -n $len
/www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/$open ";
echo "Displaying the last $len lines of
$open...";
exec("tail -n $len /www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/$open", $result);
foreach ($result as $val) {
echo "$val";
}
?>
=
When I call the page, I get the expected at the top:
Excecuting: tail -n 150 /www/hosting/domains/lanolot/logs/error.log
Displaying the last 150 lines of error.log...
But there's nothing underneath it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Liam

An infinite loop most likely. Remember, $result is an array. Try:

RE: [PHP] Defining PHP varibles from URL
-Original Message-
$file = "";
//the above is defined from the url
include "$file";
It could be what I was typing in the url bar.
file.php?file=foobar.inc
-Original Message-
Hmm, so you define $file in your url as "foobar.inc" and then, in the
page itself you take change $file to be "".
At least, that's how I'd read it. I'd suggest, it's not an overly good
idea to include a file like this as someone else has already mentioned.
In any event, your fix would have to be something like this:
If (!isset($file) || empty($file))
{
$file = "some file";
}
Include "$file" ;
That way you're only going to over-write the contents of $file if it's
already either unset or empty.
CYA, Dave

Hi
You need
exec("tail -n 100 access_log",$result);
$result will be an array with the output of the command.
see http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php
