Could you post a short, self-contained example that doesn't work?

Michael, I referred you to the upload example in the manual (which you say you 
got working) so that you will have a solid working foundation to build upon. 
In the example, the code to check whether a file has been uploaded is:

  if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {

So why are you using this:

>  if ($fileatt != "")
>  {





> $uploaddir = '/home/sites/webserver.agraservices.net/web/mike/';
> echo "it found the attachment";
>move_uploaded_file($_FILES['fileatt']['tmp_name'], uploaddir .

>}

As has been pointed out you're missing the $ in uploaddir.

$fileatt is pointing to a directory. You need to define it as:

$fileatt = 
"/home/sites/webserver.agraservices.net/web/mike/{$_FILES['fileatt']['name']}";

Note the braces {}. Read the language reference of the manual (not sure where 
exactly it is so can't be more specific) to see why they're needed and how 
they work.

Not sure whether there are any more errors in your code, but correct the above 
first and see where that gets you.

Re: [PHP] Fast Templates error in PHP 4.3.1 ?

[Travel Jadoo]

PHP 4.3.1 apparently doesn't allow anymore assigning of the same
function name twice which FastTemplates still does around line 630 with
function "clear_assign" for a perl module alias.

So Fast Template users beware!

THe book is out of date. RTFM for the latest info, also read the 
changelog/history to see what has changed since the version of PHP mentioned

That should be all you need.  Make sure that something isn't re-assigning

RE: [PHP] Re: Found a bug in 4.2.3 re: and echo vs.

[Rasmus Lerdorf]

You are getting completely mixed up.  Simplifying your example:

function foo() { echo "foo"; }

$a = "".foo()."";

Will you agree that this is bogus code?  foo() is not going to return
anything, so the resulting value of $a is going to be "".
Correct?  But while that assignment is happening the foo() function echoes
something, so you will see "foo" in the output, but it has nothing to do
with what ends up in $a.  Nothing changes when you change the code to be:

function foo() { echo "foo"; }

echo "".foo()."";

The parser is going to build a string to be echoed since you used the
string concatenation operator (dot).  While building that string one of
the components happen to output something, so that something will get
output.  Then the string that was built will be output.  So what you see
is:

foo

Perhaps it is clearer if we make the function return something:

function foo() { echo "foo"; return "bar"; }

echo "".foo()."";

What do you think the output will be here?  We build a string out of the
components, but while building, foo() happens to echo "foo", then we
finish constructing the string and output the final string.  So the result
is:

   foobar

As someone else pointed out, if you use commas here, things change a bit:

function foo() { echo "foo"; }

echo "",foo(),"";

The comma syntax for echo is basically a shortcut for executing echo
multiple times.  The above is equivalent to writing:

echo "";
echo foo();
echo "";

In this case things will be output in the correct order as we are no
concatenating a bunch of parts to make a single string before echoing it
in this case.

So both tables in the output look the same? Not for me under PHP 4.3.0:

(1)

this fails!

(2)



this works


If I change '.' to ',' in this line:

echo "".alarmLightMySQL()."";

I get the expected result:

this fails!

It appears that - in this case, at least - one cannot concatenate a string
with a function. I never meant to imply that this made sense.

Neither works.  You're doing something like this in your other code:

function foo(){
 echo "foo";
}
echo foo();
The foo() doesn't return the (non-existant) value from echo, it simply 
echo()s and returns nothing, and there's nothing wrong with echo()ing 
nothing.  It would fail if you were using

function foo(){
 return echo "foo";
}
echo foo();

You would probably be better off using an apache module for this.
Something like Mod Auth MySQL It would be easy to make the module
set a few enviroment variables if you need to pass info to php.

Re: [PHP] Found a bug in 4.2.3 re: and echo vs.

[Rasmus Lerdorf]

I don't see a parse error, but the order of things is not going to be what
you want because it is going to run the function and thus do the echo
inside alarmLightYMD() before it does the outermost echo.  If it had done
anything else it would really have been a bug.

RE: [PHP] custom error handling + fopen

apolgies sorry i removed a check for E_WARNING

You can't really separate them.  In your error handler you can check what
type of error it was and treat them differently.

Re: [PHP] chill out

[-{ Rene Brehmer }-]

That's called a welcome message and is standard on nearly all email lists
... although I truly can't remember getting any when I sub'ed to this one
in november.

The standard for most lists is that you get a message telling you what the
list is for, what is allowed, what is not, and how and where to get info
on whatever common OT posts that eventually pop up ...

So I'd agree to this ...

That is more like an oximoron (sp?) ... comp ppl are generally secluded

You don't learn much in the area of ppl skills that way ... I know ... I
started coding when I was 8 ... that's 19 years ago ... Until a few years
ago I literally knew noone in the real world...

But whatever your disposition is ... the best way to fit into a list is to
sub, keep quiet and read for a few days, and then try to fit into the
rhythm of the list ... the ones that sub and post within 5 minutes are
usually the ones that get the most disrespectful feedback ... because they
simply haven't gotten the vibe of the list yet... and I speek from
experience ... I've been subed to over 100 lists in the past 5 years, and
all lists have had this very problem ... some are nice, some aren't ...
some needs to learn how to ask a question, some needs to learn how to

I totally don't see what you mean. I've learned more from this list in the
past 6 months than any other mail group I've ever been sub'ed to in the
past 5 years, nomatter what the topic have been.

I haven't seen any flaming at all, but agree that sometimes the sarcasm
step a bit out.

When people ask questions they could've very easily answered themselves by
looking into the manual, then you can sure expect the responses to be a
bit on the annoyed side ... especially when 10 people ask the same
question in different threads, instead of checking the threads for the
past 2-3 days ... I've also seen that happen alot more often here, than
anywhere else...

There's only a few lists left I'm still subscribed to. All the ones I've
dropped have been too filled with people answering questions on things
they don't really know well enough to answer. This list is positively
different ... there are more willing and insightful answers here than
there's actual questions ... and sometimes when the answers do get a bit
spightful, it's usually because the asker didn't word his/her question in
a manner where it's easy to understand what's being asked...

If the topic is off-topic, the poster must be made aware of it ... just
ignoring them often leads to frustration and reposting ... It's better to
point them to where they can obtain the answer, than just pretend they
don't exist ... that also helps keep the noise to a minimum.

[PHP] headers and apache

hi

having a little problem with apache and its "customizable error messages"

i have a basic authentication system here:
##in file called deletepost.php i have:##

html for error web page here...
#end#

now in apache httpd.conf file i was told to do this:

ErrorDocument 401 /errors/unauthorized.php
#end#

after i do all of this i still cant get anything to show up on the web page if someone 
puts in the wrong username/pwd and i want to change the error message for cancle on 
the login form to a header error message... 

the only problem i can see with this is that the actuall working web server might not 
be able to use my custom error messages and stuff.. but does anybody know how to fix 
my problem here?

tnx for help if can give...

Re: [PHP] mysql_num_rows

[Kevin Stone]

Uh. no that can't be right becuase  mysql_query() returns a pointer not an
array.  The variable does contain a string refering to the pointer ID but
that's about all the information you're going to disseminate from print_r();

You should be accessing the $_GET, $_POST and $_SESSION arrays directly
rather than relying on request vars to be parsed automatically.  This will
allow you to be much more discriminatory in your code.

Read up on Predefined Variables in the manual..

That means your query failed, generally. Check for mysql_error() after
you run your query to see what went wrong. For example in your SQL,
you're missing the "FROM table" portion of your query... oops!

I don't know of any off hand, but I know they exist. A search on google
will turn up some. Why not just set up a development server on your own
machine, though? Apache and PHP are free and simple to set up (depending
upon your OS), so you can test everything before you even upload it.

Take a look at the set_error_handler() function.
www.php.net/set_error_handler You can trap the errors with that and then
apply any translation you need. Gettext may be of some use here, but
I've never used it. www.php.net/get_text

This one is tricky because you're relying on something from the client
side. You don't know if it's correct or not. The best option is to just
offer them a simple drop down to choose their language and then remember
it for them (with a cookie) after that point.

MD5() creates a 32 character hash of a string. There is no way to get
the original string or password back. You must use md5() on the password
that the user supplies and compare that to the md5() values you have
stored. There is an md5() implementation within JavaScript that I've
heard about.

[PHP] Running scripts in non-php file

[Tom Tsongas]

Hi folks.

This will probably sound like a stupid question, but I will ask it 
anyway: how can I get the PHP interpreter to execute scripts in files 
that don't have the .php extension? i.e. if I want to embed php code 
into a .html or .xml file that gets run.

I thought all I had to do was add the extension to the AddType 
application in the apache configuration file so it looked like this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html .xml

I tried it but the code isn't being executed. (And yes, I did restart 
apache)
Am I missing something?

I've never had any problems with the native PHP session implementation
(except for that buggy 4.2.?? version). It can be adapted to use
databases or any other method. I think all of the problems you read
about are from people trying to do things the hard way or just not
understanding how sessions work.

Why not create your .ini file in the same format as php.ini and use
parse_ini_file() to read it. This will allow you to put in comments and
name the variables so that when someone else sees this file or tries to
edit your program, they'll know what the heck this file is.

;Host
host = localhost
;User
user = john
;Password
password = mypass

Then in PHP:

$var = parse_ini_file("/path/to/filename.ini");
echo $var['host'];
echo $var['user'];
echo $var['password'];
etc...

www.php.net/parse_ini_file

Letting a native PHP function handle reading and loading the file into
variables will be faster than a homegrown method from within PHP.

Try first to take off the \r char on the string. It worked very good for me
using only the \n to send more headers. Other is to put the address into
angle bracets (<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) and in this way you can use a name on the
server (read some rfc's, it will be helpful if you're using email often in
php programs; begin reading the 822). Other is try to send one message at
the time. Remember that you can une more than once the mail() function on
the program. Other, chech if your SMTP server allow to send CC and BCC
messages. Some ones for security reasons don't let you to do that. Other add
the CC address to $strSubject separated with a semi colon and still use the
CC extra header.

make a rand value for the cookie -- stick that rand value in a db with
the actual user account info ... then we pull the real account info
using the random value from their cookie -- simple, efficient and pretty
dang secure -- also the system is load balance friendly

You've disabled cookies, either in your browser, or in php.ini completely
(for sessions, that is). Make your redirection like this:

header('Location: ../index.htm' . (SID ? '?' . SID : null));

I assume that your setup has "htm" files parsed by PHP. Otherwise - where
should the session data go to if you're redirecting to plain html?

[PHP] Replacing Unicode characters

[Jeff Bearer]

I'm working on an application where I need to replace some Unicode
characters with a PHP shell script.

The problem I'm having is matching multibyte characters.

One character in particular is Unicode 2014 an m-dash '—'

To get the decimal code to identify the character I've tried two
methods, one was with a little script like this:



I took the multiple decimal codes returned and tried a replacement like:

echo str_replace(chr(226).chr(128).chr(148),"-hyphen",$data);

But that didn't match it I figured my method of finding the decimal
value wasn't correct.

Next I thought if I UTF-8 encoded the character and took the ord() and
used that decimal to compare against a utf-encoded version of my string.
but when I tried getting the ord() of all the characters I wanted to
watch for it always gave me the same decimal, 195. So that idea wasn't
going to work either.

I'm out of ideas, any input would be appriciated. Thanks.

RE: [PHP] Opinion on a method....

[Dan Joseph]

Hi,

Thanks to everyone for the input.

Reason I'm not using an include is simple.  The file does not contain any
variables, it just has a line of text that is & delimited.  I guess I was
just looking at the include() method as insecure.  I can see how it wouldn't
be now.

Thanks to everyone!

Should do it - it's a bit of a long-winded route, though.

As Kevin said, why not just use include()? It'll be a lot easier and just as
safe :-)

[snip] 

This depends on the contents of your library. If you have it included
within the function, all variables and data structures created within the
included file are within the function's scope. If included outside, they're
on a global scope - you would need to use either the $GLOBAL superglobal
array, or to declare them being global within the function that uses them.

RE: [PHP] Includes confusion

[Jennifer Goodie]

PHP parses includes inline, so whatever the scope is where the file is
included, is the scope of the variables that the include contains.  You can
declare the variables global in your fuction and it will use what was
included, that would be the quick fix, you could also switch your include to
use DEFINE instead of just instantiating variables. Constants have global
scope.

Re: [PHP] Apache SetHandler

[Zoff]

Hi !

what i want is to write something in PHP which does authentication
(not basic auth but my own DB driven stuff) and after that something
apache resumes normal operation so that whatever is served afterwards
does not need to know anything of the auth process.
e.g.:
--> apache --> PHP-script --> apache --> static.html
or:
--> apache --> PHP-script --> apache --> PHP.php
or:
--> apache --> PHP-script --> apache --> perl.pl
or:
--> apache --> PHP-script --> apache --> acrobat.pdf
and all POST or GET data if there should be passed along for forms to work,
or uploads.
so is that possible ?

	Zoff.

I can't figure this out. I have a line where I include a file

include "/Library/WebServer/includes/database_connection.inc";

I want to have this declared in one location, so that I don't have to 
change multiple lines if I ever move the application, everything works 
fine except inside functions. So if I have the following:

include "/Library/WebServer/includes/database_connection.inc";

function list_search_results()
{
// my code that lists search results
}
The functions returns an error, but if I do this:

function list_search_results()
{
include "/Library/WebServer/includes/database_connection.inc";
// my code that lists search results
}
Everything works fine. Shouldn't the function be able to use the 
include file when it is declared outside the function?

Different folders, or different hostnames?

PHP's ability to automatically add the SID to href's, as well as cookies,
are limited to the same hostname.

Example:

www.myhost.com => /html/myhost/www/
www.myotherhost.com => /html/myhost/www/

These two couldn't share the same session, even if they reference the same
physical directory.

I tried to configure these platforms, and when I write http://localhost
, it doesn't work, I think the problem is the web server, but I don't
understand because I install all the applications mentioned as a package
that bring nusphere. Does Win95 have problem with this tecnologies?

AHA!
That's it!
I thought the default was 1%, which should have been enough as I had 
several hundred session files there, but it was at 1/1000 or 0.1%

Thank you,

I'm sure this isn't the problem, but
the OS must be able to track the last "access" time of the file in order for
garbage collection to work. I'm sure RedHat does that, but I'm just bringing
it up.
Can you write a simple PHP script to try and delete one of these files? Just
a one liner using ulink() would work. You could then see if PHP, running as
Apache, has any issues accessing these files.

I will add in this case that include() is going to be no less secure than
fopen(), plus it's going to be a whole hell of a lot easier.

RE: [PHP] Opinion on a method....

In a php file I can just include the connection information and reduce
the overhead that comes with fopen.  Still gives me one central spot for
changing connection information as necessary.

There is always more than one way to do it.

Put the connect info into a php file (i.e. connect.php).  
If it is ever directly accessed by the client the PHP engine will render

RE: [PHP] Opinion on a method....

Hi Jon,

the ini file looks like:

hostip&user&password&databasename

after I import it, I split it up, and assign each to a variable name.

I also have it outside the doc root, and it gives a generic error msg for
every error in the system (db related, or not).

Should this do it?

Does this filename.ini contain the code to connect to your database? If so,
I usually do two things with this file:

1. put it outside the document root, so users can't browse to it
2. put any code that might output something (an error message, for example)
inside a function, so even if it is run, nothing will happen - you need to
include() it and then call the function yourself.

If it's just connection information, with no code (I'm a bit confused by the
.ini extension :-) then just make sure it's somewhere outside your document
root.

I don't think XML is inherently any more secure than plain text - it's all
down to how you store and transmit the data.

So long as filename.ini is outside of your web root, you are fine. You could
also just have a plain PHP file outside of your web root and use the
include() function to get the variables...

include.php:



index.php (or any other script)


etc You can instead put the connection function within the include.php
file, too.

Hi,

I'm having a problem where session files are not expiring or getting deleted.

I'm running RedHat 7.3 (which normally expires sessions fine).
I removed the RedHat PHP packages (rpm -e), and compiled and installed PHP 
4.3.1 from source.

 './configure' '--with-mysql' '--with-gd' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib' 
'--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs' '--with-config-file-path=/etc'

I'm using the php.ini-recommended, with ONLY the following changes:
display_errors = On
session.save_path = /tmp/php
session.auto_start = 1
session.entropy_length = 16
session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom
Following some documentation I found somewhere on php.net, I have the 
permissions on /tmp/php equal to 310:
>ls -l /tmp
d-wx--x---2 apache   apache  17408 Apr  3 11:14 php

There are hundreds of files in there; many are over 1 week old.

I've just tried changing the permissions to 770 (drwxrwx---) and 
restarting apache; it doesn't seem to be making any difference.

apache is
apache-1.3.27-2
from RedHat's RPM
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Barry Gould

I guess so, here's what worked:

everybody was telling me this, but I failed to notice that what everyone said 
was to use $_POST['applicant']

but I was using $_POST['$applicant'] I wasn't paying attention to the "$" 




Welcome
!



What I would like to use is: echo ("Welcome " . applicant . "!");
But it doesn't work, so I guess I'll worry about learning what works first.
