[PHP] UDP socket_read() problem
Hello, I created an UDP socket using $sock=socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM,SOL_UDP) successfully and then used socket_bind($sock,$address,$port), up to there, no problems, but when I try to $buff=socket_read($sock,3) it just stays there doing nothing forever. What could be the problem? What is the normal behaviour of socket_read() when the socket is empty? I write to the socket (address/port) like crazy from the other side of the LAN, but nothing seems to be happening.

[PHP] Commenting out characters?
Simple question for the newbie...I hope...
The following line is returning an error, and I can't figure out what and
how to comment out. I assumed I had to \ the parentheses...but it doesnt
work... any suggestion?
echo 'TDA HREF=#IMG SRC=image.gif WIDTH=62 HEIGHT=15 BORDER=0

If I understand correct, you will want something like this: ? $var = $_POST[var]; session_start(); session_register(var); ? And now, in all the scripts on your site, when you execute the session_start() function, $_SESSION[var] contains the original contents of $_POST[var] .

[PHP] 256colour PNG?? WHY?!
Hmm.. Interesting problem I seem to have stumbled upon I am running apache2.0.36 and php4.2.2 (i am using gd1.6.2) Now the catch is.. I just want to output a few diff image types directly to browser.. I can do JPEG's fine.. BMP's don't work because of using a older gdlib.. that's no big deal though.. i just wanted jpeg and hopefully PNG.. Thing is.. PNG's well.. it loads them fine.. but they end up 256colour palette in the browser.. it actually creates the new image from the original true colour (~24KB original) and instead spits out a 256colour ~4KB version.. since the palette's been reduced involuntarily this is not the desired effect.. I run the img resource through imagecolorstotal($img) to get the colour palette. sure enough.. it returns 256.. and yet i open the PNG in Photoshop and its a truecolour PNG and without discolouration.. It's definitely freaking me out since I have no idea why it's doing it. I started reading the docs' more closely to see if it was a known issue and that the png func's are supposed to return 256 colour images.. but to no avail.. Below is the code of the very simple (as can be seen) test php page: ? header(Content-type: image/png); //header(Content-Disposition: image; filename=test); $img=imagecreatefrompng(./news/n1d1.png); //imageinterlace($img,1); imagepng($img); ?

Re: [PHP] Attack of the ghost double slash??
Thanks much, that made all the difference in the world. The function would be get_magic_quotes_gpc() Chris Shiflett wrote: Gerard, The most likely reason is a php.ini configuration called magic_quotes. When enabled, PHP will automatically add slashes to single and double quotes, as well as slashes themselves (to escape them). This is helpful in some environments to help protect against attacks that can be used to execute arbitrary database commands. However, this particular setting is one of the more annoying ones, in my opinion, because it makes it more difficult to write portable code. Hopefully this answers your question, and you can just check your php.ini. If you need to dynamically check the configuration, there is a function that will give you the setting of magic_quote. A quick reference in the manual will give it to you. Oh, also, you cannot disable this per script, because the slashes are added perior to the data being given to PHP, hence prior to your script's execution. Happy hacking. Chris Gerard Samuel wrote: A few months ago, I wrote a bit of code to stripslash() PATH_TRANSLATED on a w2k box, because, php was reporting it with double slashes like C:\\winnt\\some_dir Today I noticed that the code is broken because PATH_TRANSLATED is now reported with one slash like C:\winnt\some_dir Does anyone know when paths contain double slashes on a w2k box, so that I can anticipate for them??

1. To do that you should 'or' the categories when the ID's are
to be in more than one category, not add them
eg $category = $cat1 | $cat2;
2. To extract the categories within a compounded category
use the 'and' operator ''
eg
for ($mask=1; $mask = 64; /*or whatever*/ $mask *= 2; ) {
if ( $mask $category ) {
print Yes $mask is in $category\n;
}

Re: [PHP] checking if an array is empty
There are many different states, in which an array would be empty. Can you post the output of a var_dump($array); in that special case you want to check? In general: 1. the variable may not have been set: if (!isset($myarray)) echo 'error'; 2. the variable is set, but ain't an array: if (!isarray($myarray) echo 'error'; 3. the variable is set and is an array, but contains no data: if (array_count($myarray) == 0) echo 'error'; I think the 3rd case could apply to your problem, but only a print_r or var_dump of the $_POST['myarray'] can show this.

Re: [PHP] Re: session cookies
I responded to this in a private email to you, and not on the forum... I did respond. I will post here again so there is no question; I want to force it to use a cookie that points to a transparent SID on my system. what I mean by this is it was my understanding when reading the sessions doc's that there was a way to for the system to use a stored system ID stored in an SID, but the information wouldn't be sent to the browser, but be stored in a cookie. With use_trans_sid set, PHP is going to append the session ID to the URL of links, etc., on: I tried setting the user_trans_sid = 0, but it still will not use a cookie. it doesn't appear to change anything when I play with these settings.

Jeff Bluemel wrote: what I mean by this is it was my understanding when reading the sessions doc's that there was a way to for the system to use a stored system ID stored in an SID, but the information wouldn't be sent to the browser, but be stored in a cookie. Cookies are stored on the client, so they are also sent to the browser. Basically, the unique identifier (e.g., PHPSESSID) must be provided by the Web client in order for it to be associated with previous requests. The two most common methods of this are for it to send this information in a cookie (there is a Cookie header in the HTTP request) or as part of the query string in a URL (such as http://www.example.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=123456789) that it is requesting. With use_trans_sid set, PHP is going to append the session ID to the URL of links, etc., on: I tried setting the user_trans_sid = 0, but it still will not use a cookie. it doesn't appear to change anything when I play with these settings. Right. I was explaining (poorly looking back) what the use_trans_sid does. Basically, the idea is that the developer doesn't have to worry about how the unique identifier is passed back. This is the easiest way to use session management, because it is transparent for the most part. PHP will try both cookie and URL methods to maintain the unique identifier, and it will use only a cookie once it can determine that the client supports them. You are having a problem, it sounds like, with the Web client *not* sending back the cookie in subsequent requests. Thus, use_trans_sid will append the unique identifier to the URL every time, as it believes the client to not be supporting cookies (which might just be your problem). When you combine this with use_only_cookies (sp?), you are basically telling PHP to ignore the unique identifier if it is sent on the URL. Thus, it is not receiving the cookie, and it is being instructed to not use the URL variable. It has no way to identify the client and maintain state. Your problem boils down to one thing: the cookie is not getting passed back. Focus on this initially. Make sure your Web browser is accepting the cookie (you can configure most browsers to warn you before accepting a cookie, so that you can be certain it is being set), and try to make sure your PHP script is receiving the cookie like it thinks it should be. For example, if the cookie is named PHPSESSID, try this: ? echo cookie is [ . $_COOKIE[PHPSESSID] . ]br; ? If ths cookie is blank (e.g., cookie is []), you have identified your problem. Hopefully this will help you solve it. Happy hacking. Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Best Practice
I'm working on converting several static (price) pages on our site into dynamic pages, with the data stored in an MySQL database and PHP to pull the data out, with CSS to build the page and present it. At the same time, I would also like to have a 'printer friendly' link on each page that visitors can click on and get the same page re-rendered for easy printing. What's the best way to get the data converted from one form to another? Should I be querying the database again to get the same data to reformat? Should I store the data in sessions and reformat based on the CSS? I would think having to query twice for the same thing would be a degradation in performance, right? So what's the best practice? -- H | Life is the art of drawing without an eraser. - John Gardner + Ashley M.

Re: [PHP] Best Practice
Ashley, This is difficult to answer, as you are actually the best person to decide. Consider some of the following things: 1. How often do you anticipate people will use the printer-friendly link? 2. How much data do you anticipate, on average, to be contained in the results of these queries? 3. How much traffic do you anticipate? 4. How much memory does your Web server have? 5. Are you maintaining sessions anyway, or would this be the only thing to require them? My (uneducated) guess would be that querying again is the best approach. You're basically talking about a separate request anyway, and the overhead of maintaining state might not be worth it, as you may end up with many of these result sets stored in the session, and the client may never use them.

[PHP] debug function - string to variable conversion?
hi there,
i was thinking of a 2 ways to write a new debug function, ...
1. debug all variables in php script, e.g. function debug( all )
which should parse the whole source code of a particular php-script for all
occuring variables and treat them corresponding to their variable type, e.g.
- simple one-dimensional variables like int, float, string,... should be
printed as key = value pairs.
- arrays could be printed with the built-in print_r function
- etc...
= has anybody done this already? do you have any conclusions?
2. debug specified variable(s) only, e.g. function debug( var, var2, var3,
... )
But the problem is to pass the parameters in the right way to get the needed
information and afterwards treat the passed function input to dynamically
print the output.
when i tried to pass, e.g. the variable $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] to my debug
function, it was totally confusing, if the variable should be
a) passed as $param, without using any quoting, like:
debug($_SERVER_[SERVER_NAME])
b) passed as string, using single ticks, like:
debug('$_SERVER_[SERVER_NAME]')
c) passed as string, using double quotes, like:
debug($_SERVER_[SERVER_NAME])
and on the other hand, how to retrieve the passed function input, to write
output, like e.g.
$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = www.remslakecity.de
every time i tried, my only output was,
$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']
or
www.remslakecity.de = www.remslakecity.de
= where can i see the source-code of the phpinfo() function, maybe there is
hint of how to do it?
= is there a conversion from string to variable, if $var was passed as
string?
= after passing $var as variable it is evaluated on-the-fly, so i can' t
get the $key (varname)
afterall, if my explanation was too confusing,
i only want to write the varname once, like debug (var) and to retrieve the
$var = value pair !!!
thanks a lot for helping me out,... me, myself i, we completely lost our
nerves...

Hello Dave,
The php mail function is still not working. I've changed the coding a little
bit to help you debug it. The code on the page is now:
?php
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'An email to two people', 'This is
a test');
?
As you can see, it will send an email to both you and me.
To test the page you can go to community updates or sellwithpictures. The
two URLs are:
http://www.sellwithpictures.com/php/emailtest.html
and
http://www.communityupdates.com/php/emailtest.html
Please email me when you have it working.
Thanks for your effort.
Apart from being a neat thing for a page to be able to do, I'm doing a quote
for a large site where they require emails to be sent out by the site when
someone fills out a form, so we need to have this figured out.
Thanks again,
bob

If the system is set up correctly on your end, it should work flawlessly.
Unfortunately, at this point, it is not working. Apparently, the php.ini

In your above example, you could specify document root (/) as the resource like this: http://www.site.com/?phpsessid=gafklgjr952344afgfa Or, you could specify a specific script to use: http://www.site.com/foo.php?phpsessid=gafklgjr952344afgfa Either way, it is best to use a proper URL. Even when Web clients handle improper URLs (most handle http://www.example.org for example, which fails to specify any resource), it is dangerous to depend on that.The old saying, be strict in what you send and lenient in what you receive, has unfortunately been combined with, use whatever works, so that many people are now lenient in what they send. :-) do I have to do anything so that I force php to recognize the session id in the query string? The short answer is yes. However, it must be named whatever PHP is expecting it to be named (for example, a variable named foo won't be assumed to be the unique identifier), and you must not have php.ini configurations that will force PHP to ignore it (such as session.use_only_cookies, or whatever that one is called). I hope that answers your question. :-) Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

here is a test i'm trying to be able to send script into the header and then
be able to redirect ones the script output has finished, it states in the
manual that ob_end_clean : This function discards the contents of the

issue i'd like to solve sure there is document.location but i'd prefer to
stick with header for redirecting let me know

Hi, I place name all my included files *.inc...

This does a few things for me: 1. I know that all *.php files are intended to be served direct to the user through a web browser, and I know that all .inc files are code fragments, not intended to be run out of context. 2.

This explanation from Justin is worth saving. I also like to call all of my included modules *.inc, and I prefer to store them outside of document root. However, if you want to keep all of your files together, the .htaccess file shown below is the best way to restrict direct access to modules. Some people make the mistake of simply making *.inc files considered PHP by Apache (claiming it is better to execute them than to have their source code displayed), but this gives attackers the opportunity to execute your modules out of context - a very dangerous approach. One extra note worth adding is that you should add this configuration to your httpd.conf if you are the Web server administrator. This will keep you from having to remember the .htaccess file everywhere. Justin's method is best for when you do not have this option.

Hello Dave,
The php mail function is still not working. I've changed the coding
a little
bit to help you debug it. The code on the page is now:
?php
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'An email to two people',
'This is
a test');
?
As you can see, it will send an email to both you and me.
To test the page you can go to community updates or
sellwithpictures. The
two URLs are:
http://www.sellwithpictures.com/php/emailtest.html
and
http://www.communityupdates.com/php/emailtest.html
Please email me when you have it working.
Thanks for your effort.
Apart from being a neat thing for a page to be able to do, I'm
doing a quote
for a large site where they require emails to be sent out by the
site when
someone fills out a form, so we need to have this figured out.
Thanks again,
bob

I'm working on converting several static (price) pages on our site
into dynamic pages, with the data stored in an MySQL database and
PHP to pull the data out, with CSS to build the page and present it.
I don't see how CSS would build anything, I guess it's just
terminology.
At the same time, I would also like to have a 'printer friendly'
link on each page that visitors can click on and get the same page
re-rendered for easy printing. What's the best way to get the data
converted from one form to another? Should I be querying the
database again to get the same data to reformat? Should I store the
data in sessions and reformat based on the CSS? I would think
having to query twice for the same thing would be a degradation in
performance, right? So what's the best practice?
I have not idea what the best practice is. If your data changes
infrequently you could build static pages, nothing faster than static
pages. Few people work on sites where most of these questions mean
much. A friend worked on a site that he and I had developed and I left
the firm and he later said the customer was complaining about response
time .. I suggested he take the query string and cache the response in
a db file and check that db file for every incoming request rather than
going to Oracle (yeah, they were using Oracle when mysql would have
done fine). They opted to just bolster the hardware, end of complaints
and it was running plain cgi, not even mod_perl. Oh well.
I do something that few people do. I take a request from the *client*
and I process it. Just data manipulation. Since I'm doing the web I get
an html template (from Smarty.php.net in this case) and do a merge. I
like to use a wrapper, as such:
$data contains an array or arrays of whatever which is all the data
needed for this page (based on the query string in the request). It is
the body of the page (I've got smarty in my own class, viewer):
$data['content'] = $g-viewer-Merge($data,$template);
Now, I merge everything with the WRAPPING page:
print $g-viewer-Merge($data,'index.html');
Here is my index.html page ($content is the body of the page):
{include file=inc/header.html}
{include file=../site_nav.html}
table width=80%
tr
td valign=top width=25%
{include file=./left_nav.html}
/td
td valign=top width=74%
{$content}
/td
/tr
/table
{include file=inc/footer.html}
__END index.html
So if you want to show a printable page just do something like this:
if($print == 1) {
print $g-viewer-Merge($data,'print_index.html');
where print_index.html would have a different layout, perhaps minimal
header and footer or none at all. Or you could do some processing on
the data or whatever.

However, if you want to keep all of your files together, the .htaccess file shown below is the best way to restrict direct access to modules. Some people make the mistake of simply making *.inc files considered PHP by Apache (claiming it is better to execute them than to have their source code displayed), but this gives attackers the opportunity to execute your modules out of context - a very dangerous approach. One extra note worth adding is that you should add this configuration to your httpd.conf if you are the Web server administrator. This will keep you from having to remember the .htaccess file everywhere. Justin's method is best for when you do not have this option. Chris Justin French wrote: I place name all my included files *.inc... I place them all in a folder /inc/ and place a .htaccess file in that directory to restrict the files being served of HTTP: Files ~ \.inc$ Order Allow,Deny Deny from all /Files Another option would be to place them in a folder ABOVE your web root, so that Apache can't serve them -- if you have that option. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] accessing session variables
I'm assuming there has got to be a better answer then this, but I found I had the same problem is I was using headers to go to the next page, but when I used the html tags then everything was fine (the SID wasn't getting passed).

[PHP] Re: Editor
I am using Zend Studio, and I absolutely love it. this isn't just an editor, but a project manager, and has debugging options where it loads the file in your default browser, and then allows you to do step through, add watches etc. http://zend.com/store/products/zend-studio.php Bryan McLemore [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 004901c26170$fc6fc510$0101a8c0@fwcmain">news:004901c26170$fc6fc510$0101a8c0@fwcmain...

Remember, with CSS you can hide and unhide elements? Ah .. yes ... forgot about that. That is building. Appreciate the reminder. The best practice, IMHO, is the one implemented here: http://www.alistapart.com/ Try the page with your standard-compliant browser (like N7) and with a (crappy) browser like N4 and see the difference. You can dissect the site and find out how they did it.

[PHP] Running a PHP script automatically?
Folks, I have a PHP script that needs to be executed automatically every 15 minutes. I have the option of doing this on a RedHat linux box, or on Windows 2000 Server. How would I do this (on either platform) and which would be easier? I believe somehow I could create a cron job on linux, but I'm a bit confused how that would work. Would I just call the php script using Lynx? If so, does the Lynx process die when the php script is finished? Will I have dozens of Lynx processes still running at the end of the day? In Windows, I believe I could use the task scheduler, or something like that. But again, how exactly would I call the script? I certainly don't want a new browser window to open every 15 minutes, especially if it doesn't close again. Any insight? Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Running a PHP script automatically?
Joseph, The easiest way, in my opinion, is to make your PHP script into a shell script or to call it with PHP yourself. A Red Hat Linux box is going to have a command line PHP located somewhere like /usr/bin/php. So, make the first line of your PHP script something like this: #! /usr/bin/php Make sure it is executable (chmod 755 script.php, for example), and execute it: ./script.php With cron, just call the script using the full path, and you're all set. Happy hacking. Chris Joseph Szobody wrote: Folks, I have a PHP script that needs to be executed automatically every 15 minutes.

Re: [PHP] Running a PHP script automatically?
On the Linux box compile PHP as CGI (i.e. don't configure it as an apache mod). Then you can just run your script from the the command-line. For example: #!/usr/local/bin/php -q ?php print Hello world.\n; ? The -q suppresses the html crap that gets spit out. I don't know jack about Redhat (Debian rocks), you might be able to get an RPM that will install the php executable for you. To do the crontab: RUN THIS COMMAND crontab -e TYPE THIS 15,30,45,0 * * * * name_of_your_script THEN ESC :wq Keith Vance Vance Consulting LLC www.vanceconsulting.net (206) 355-2399 Try my open source PHP authentication system, Rampart by visiting http://rampart.sourceforge.net/.
