RE: [PHP] ssh command in php script
Don't know if this will help, but I worked on one implementation that involved writing a daemon (we used perl, but php would work as well) which runs as a user privileged script (started from cron), and waits for a connection from my web app, and verifies that the request is coming from the proper server and script, executes the ssh, and returns the controlled result to the web app. We also used this daemon to fork some processes and create multi-threaded collection process (but that's another nut). In my case the apache web server tasks ran as a user named nobody, which had no system privileges at all, a common safeguard, on RH Linux.

Here's the problem... If I leave all of the fields as text input fields,
the form works fine. But, as soon as I change the manufacturers field to
a drop-down menu populated with entries from another table, I get the
following error when accessing the page...

What's up? These drop-downs from another table work fine in Add forms.
They just seem to crap out in Update forms. It was suggested that I
needed to create recordsets for both the menu and the rest of the form. I
did that and the form still doesn't work. Attached is the entire page

What I would really like to do is allow a limited set of HTML tags (like the anchor a tag) but at the same time implement reasonable protection. I prefer htmlentities() to strip_tags() in cases like this, because by stripping tags, you eliminate the chance that your users can talk about code. If you use htmlentities() instead, their code will appear exactly as they typed it. You may not want this, but I thought I'd mention it. In regards specifically to the HTML anchor tag a, are their guidelines for what should, and should not be allowed? Any tag like anchor is more difficult to deal with, because you have attributes whose values can be anything. For something like a bold tag, on the other hand, you can simply replace lt;bgt; with b and do the same for the closing tag. With tags like anchor, you want to determine two things: 1. Which attributes you want to allow, stripping all others (or the entire anchor tag if this rule is broken). For example, you may want to begin by only allowing href. 2. What the acceptable format is of each of the attributes you allow. For example, with the href attribute, you probably want to only allow valid URLs. If you allow anything, someone might be able to use some client-side scripting trickery to do something you did not intend. It's better to be safe. I don't have any sample code to give you, but maybe someone else can pitch in. Hope that helps.

So why is PHP changing this number to 2000? Is there a way to stop it?

His suggestion was just that, a suggestion. You are the expert of your own applications, so you know when it is best to follow a suggestion or ignore it. Guidelines like this are mostly about exposing people to certain ideas that make them open their eyes. If you understand the risk and can mitigate it through other means, that is fine. In your case, it might be best to use something like htmlentities() prior to displaying the data to a user rather than prior to storage. Some data filtering is still a good idea, of course, and you might want to consider the data in the database tainted if your data filtering prior to storage is incomplete whether by necessity or design. The most common approach is to cleanse data as soon as possible, but this isn't always best. Hope that helps.

Hello List! I have tried to get this command working with php for about 2Weeks now, and i would like you to try to get this thing working. This shell command: /usr/local/bin/mplayer -identify -frames 0 /tmp/pitstop.mpeg 2/dev/null| grep ID_LENGTH | cut -d = -f 2 gives me the result 16 back, the LENGHT of the filename. $var=shell_exec(/usr/local/bin/mplayer -identify -frames 0 /tmp/pitstop.mpeg 2/dev/null| grep ID_LENGTH | cut -d = -f 2); just wont for some reason! $var ist just empty. I was playing around with stderr and stdout and stuff, but i dont know why php wont deal with it as shell does. $var=shell_exec(ls -al); for examle works just fine! Could someone please give it a try, cause i have spent hours in irc channels and googeling around to get this solved :/ Thanks a LOT!!

RE: [PHP] Passing header info for use in downloading files...?
Look's correct... you could consider adding
Header(Content-transfer-encoding: binary);
But I highly doubt that would fix things. It would help much more if you
pasted the output by the server...
The link you pasted us is not sending any of the headers you set. Maybe you
already expired this url... but that surely won't help us in debugging!
These are the headers returned by your script...

There is clearly something else broken with your script and it's not in the
part of code you sent us. Not only are the headers not what you set, the
file isn't what your passing. Hope this helps.
Also, stylistically I would use a switch(..) statement. It lends itself
perfectly for the kind of thing you're trying to do...
switch($type)
{
case 'pdf': $mimeinfo = application/pdf; break;
case 'doc': $mimeinfo = application/msword; break;
default:$mimeinfo = application/octet-stream;
}

Rather than trying to see whether this might work on most browser, you should try to make it right. When constructing a query string, all you need to do is delimit pairs with an ampersand: var1=val1var2=val2var3=val3 Don't write your logic in such a way that you construct a string and always prefix every new addition with an ampersand. This is what leads to problems like you are experiencing. It's the wrong approach, even though it can be fixed by distinguishing between the first pair and all others. In PHP, constructing a proper query string is painfully easy, thanks to things like implode() and all of the array functions. Once you have a proper query string, you simply prefix it with a question mark prior to appending it to the rest of the URL. Just keep in mind that fragments go at the end. Hope that helps.

[PHP] Unique ID
Hi there, Here's my situation: I'm making a message board and I've decided the best way to go about the structure is to have 3 tables, two of them will be Posts and Replys. Now, in order for this ti work, each post has to have a UniqueID - same with the replys. Looking at another program, I can see that one way to do this is to do it by rows (ie. count how many rows, add 1, then that is the ID). It would be unique because no two rows would be 1 for example. The problem I can see is that the database would become incredibly huge (size wise I mean). I want to delete the posts after 30 days, and if I delete the row, then that would mess up the row system. Any suggestions? Dimitri Marshall -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] Unique ID
auto_increment is not in the SQL standard, and not everyone uses MySQL. To be cross-compatible between databases use a Sequence: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.database.db.intro-sequences.php provides a brief introduction, the PEAR::DB class allows you to use sequences easily. Neither auto-increment nor sequences allow you to do what you're asking for though, which is like database garbage collection. If you really need something like this you should implement it in a cron job that runs during non-peak hours as it will be quite an expensive operation on a large table (the best way I can think of would be to iterate over all table rows and look for gaps in the table, and for each gap take the record with the highest ID and change the ID to fill the gap, then update all replys to match the new ID, after everything is finished reset the sequence to the highest id in the modified table and you're done). Note from the MySQL manual for you auto_increment fans out there: Posted by Jim Martin on Tuesday October 1 2002, @11:57am Just in case there's any question, the AUTO_INCREMENT field /DOES NOT WRAP/. Once you hit the limit for the field size, INSERTs generate an error. (As per Jeremy Cole) And the comment a few beyond that regarding being able to drop the index and renumber doesn't help here, as there is an exterior resource (the reply table) that will be broken as soon as the ids change. If anyone has a better suggestion on how to do this I'd love to hear it :) -Javier -Original Message- From: Marek Kilimajer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 3:30 PM To: Dimitri Marshall Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Unique ID Dimitri Marshall wrote: Hi there, Here's my situation: I'm making a message board and I've decided the best way to go about the structure is to have 3 tables, two of them will be Posts and Replys.

Any suggestions? Dimitri Marshall A standard solution in this case is to use one common table for all messages, both 'posts' and 'replays', distinguishing them by 'type' (TypeID, say 1 for post, 2 for replay), and then build a parent/child relationship between both type of messages in that table. In this way each message will have unique id. When you need all or some 'post' messages, use a query for selecting TypeID = 1, resp. TypeID = 2 for 'replay' messages. Concerning the deletion of a message (post or replay), you should write a query which will recursively delete the message selected as well as all child messages assigned to that (parent) message. The easiest way to do this is to use triggers, but that depends on the database you work with. To get closer to this approach and to find some nice examples, check out the following resources: http://www.sqlmag.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=8826 http://www.sqlteam.com/item.asp?ItemID=8866 http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/acdata/ac_8_qd_14_5yk3.asp http://www.yafla.com/papers/sqlhierarchies/sqlhierarchies.htm HTH, Boyan -- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You'll only need one table and a parent-child relationship. The initial post will have a parent of zero and child posts under it will have a parent column relating back to the original post.

It looks to me like you just need to use substr() to parse out the elements however you want. You can see if strtotime() can do anything with it, but I doubt it. If you want to convert it to a real timestamp, look at the mktime() function. Once you have a timestamp, it's very easy to work with, and you can use date() to format it however you want.

I am following the tutorial at
http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/tutorials/phpmysql/
The source code is on the website on the left hand side
http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/static/tutorials/phpmysql/example.zip
My software:
PHP version 4.3.4 on Windows 2000
MYSQL version 4.0.16 on Windows 2000
Apache version 1.3.29 on Windows 2000
The problem is I cannot get the database to add a new records aside
from the auto-increment field. All the other fields are left blank
when the add.html is subitted.
I have the add.html with the following code exactly the same as the
source code.
form action=insert.php method=post
First Name: input type=text name=firstbr
Last Name: input type=text name=lastbr
Phone: input type=text name=phonebr
Mobile: input type=text name=mobilebr
Fax: input type=text name=faxbr
E-mail: input type=text name=emailbr
Web: input type=text name=webbr
input type=Submit
/form
The insert.php
?
include(dbinfo.inc.php);
mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( Unable to select database);
$query = INSERT INTO contacts VALUES
('','$first','$last','$phone','$mobile','$fax','$email','$web');
mysql_query($query);
mysql_close();
?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Mark - After the mysql_query($query); line add the following line
echo mysql_error();
run the script and try to add something again, if there is an error, it
will tell you via mysql_error(); echo it out to the browser, and get
back to me :)
