Re: [PHP] msession - giving me a hard time

Heh... okay, let's start over.

 From Server1:

If you create a link like this:

a href=server2/page.php??php echo SID; ?Server 2/a

The problem with SID is that it is defined as session_name=session_id if 
the client did not send session cookie. Otherwise it will be an empty 
string.

So the proper way is

a href=server2/page.php??php echo session_name() . '=' . 
session_id(); ?Server 2/a

[PHP] What is white space

[Gerard Samuel]

Most of the time, I edit files via the command line, (FBSD).
When the files are saved, it adds a \n (newline) character (at least I believe 
that is what it is) after the closing ?
When viewing these files in a windows GUI editor, there is an extra line
after the ? closing tag.
Using the php function headers_sent(), doesn't show that there is any output 
being created by these extra lines after closing ?

So is white space only physical space (\s) or can it be anything like
\t \r \n???

Thanks.

[PHP] Using $_SERVER

[Gerard Samuel]

Whats your take on adding your own data in the $_SERVER array?
For example, if I wanted to add a value to the $_SERVER array like -
$_SERVER['foo'] = 'bar';

Yes its possible, but Im looking for legality issues with this frame of 
thought.

My php knowledge is limited always learning something new.  Anyways I have
been trying to use a code that i got from
www.hotscripts.com the scipts retutns alternet rows colors for information
sent back from the database when displayed in the broswer.

Here is the script:
//---


function alternate_rows(
// color_1 and color_2 have default values, but can be over-ridden.
$data,
$color_1 = '#99',
$color_2 = 'black'
)
{
// Declare $color as static so it retains its value when program
// execution leaves the local function's scope.
static $color;

// Set the color to that's not currently set.
if ( $color == $color_1 )
{
$color = $color_2;
}
else
{
$color = $color_1;

have had no luck :(


Could some one help me with this please :)

[PHP] Who controls PHP?

[John Smith]

Hi,

Please, can someone shed a little light on this subject: who controls PHP?

How much Zend has the power to say what goes into PHP and what not?

How much does the community actually have power?

For example, there are practical reasons why one should be concerned about
this: PHP doesn't have an opcode compiler/loader built in. I find this quite
frustrating to have to use some additional software to do that, which for
example Java and Python has built-in.

Please, tell me that Zend is not the dictator here.

This is a feature/bug of PHP, depending on your perspective. When a

Hello,

Zend in no way dictates PHP, they are simply a major player in it's development and 
are just as important as the PHP community.  Zend develops much of the core extensions 
for PHP but at the same time, they do not own or even run.

Re: [PHP] Include an encoder into PHP distribution?

Ok then, that's nice to hear.

How about then the idea of including a reasonably good compiler/encoder into
standard PHP distribution? For example Turck MMcache is one, gpl'd and comes
as a php/zend extension.

I don't think there are other free encoders as this, so there wouldn't even
be a dispute over which to choose?

Your approach makes me wonder why you are bothering to convert between
timestamps and formatted dates so many times. It makes much more sense to
use timestamps for conditionals and math, and use date() only in your echo
statement.

As for your particular error, I'm sure you could easily find it with just
a few minutes of debugging. For example, output the value of $start and
$stop at the beginning and very end of each loop.

Also, you might want to use != for not equal. From the manual
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.expressions.php):

PHP supports  (bigger than), = (bigger than or equal to), == (equal), !=
(not equal),  (smaller than) and = (smaller than or equal to). These
expressions are most commonly used inside conditional execution, such as
if  statements.

Hope that helps.

Re: [PHP] Include an encoder into PHP distribution?

[John Smith]

I think Zend even has their business model partly in the encoder software,
there must be some need for it. Don't you think so?

Granted, this would increase the size of the download by a hundred
kilobytes.

I have no connection to Turck MMcache in any way than just a user who needs
it. But distributing software encoded with it is difficult while it is not
so easily available (have to be separately downloaded and installed).

Don't you think that this kind of functionality would be good for *PHP
language* in general, in many ways? It would encourage some people to adopt
PHP in the first place and not think of alternatives which offer this by
default. And of course this kind of software increases the performance too,
while it has the caching functionality as well.

Yes, but,

I don't think APC, while a good cacher, has the source code protecting
(encoding into opcode code) feature?

There is the Ioncobe encoder, Zend encoder and Turck that I know of. Of
course any of them would suit me (just one opinion while everyone has one),
but Turck is the only free one *I* know of. Well, if there is going to be a
winner comtest, maybe Ioncube or Zend wants to join it, I don't know.

Yes, it's still quite a new piece of software, at least so I have
understood. But anyway, as an idea for the future. Just about any encoder
would be great.

If it's really built-in, always-on, that would be even better.

Besides encoding, I think code profiling features should be (almost) built
in too.

 I'm still having problems getting Turck MMcache to work on FreeBSD.
 It looks like the configure script is Linux-centric.  That's a bit of a
 minus when it comes to distributing software across multiple platforms.

I've successfully installed turck-mmcache-2.4.6 from FreeBSD
Ports collection.

Hey,
Or CodeSecure from http://securecents.com

Cheers,
-Ryan
P.S - biased opinion as i work with them.




 Ok then, that's nice to hear.

 How about then the idea of including a reasonably good compiler/encoder
into
 standard PHP distribution? For example Turck MMcache is one, gpl'd and
comes
 as a php/zend extension.

 I don't think there are other free encoders as this, so there wouldn't
even
 be a dispute over which to choose?

 This is a feature/bug of PHP, depending on your perspective. When a
 closing ? is followed by a newline, the newline is not output.

FYI, if you're woprried about the header cannot be sent due to
output... error, then if your file only has code and no HTML, then you
can omit the ? tag at the end of your script. This solves countless
issues with there being a space, a tab, a newline, or any whitespace
after the closing tag.

[PHP] Re: Storing images

[Kim Steinhaug]

Well as far as I can see you have 2 options.

a) Store them directly on disc
b) Store them in a database (eg. mySQL)

I would think that a) is the best way without doubt, since it doest
use any extra processing power to serve the images to your visitors
as its only the webserver doing the usuall stuff.

The b) option has a better advantage regarding the backup function,
as its easier backuping a database than backing up a directory with
scripts anyway. (Unless you are thinking FTP, but right now im
thinking automatied scripts) On the otehr hand I have succesfully
installed ZIP ability with PHP, which makes backing up directories
no problem. So all in all it depends on where you stand if you know
what I mean.

The database sollution puts extra demand on the database as it
constantly has to query the database to get the images all the time.

So if you are thinking about the health of your server, and how quick
you want your site to accessible for your visitors I would stick to a)
I dont think it good practise to store images into the database either.

I usually take this option myself, but when you are creating an
application to run on a large cluster of servers, option b is the better
choice in many cases. It eliminates having to maintain server affininty
with your load balancer or having to replicate the data among all the
servers.

Hope that helps.

[PHP] Re: Alternet row colors

[Kim Steinhaug]

Well, first of all Ill just scrap you script since this one is so easy
its better to do it from scratch.

OK, somewhere in your script you have the code that accually
aoutputs the tables you are working with. Im refferring to lines
here, and Im meaning the bottom of this document which is
the scipt you posted, and I have numbered the lines.

Overview of your script.
Line 5 - we print out the table header
Line 11 - 23 is the loop which prints out all the lines, or rows.
Line 24 closes the table.

So what we have to do?

First we need to declare the values we want to use as backround
colours, lets use logical names :

(fig a)
$backcolor1=#fafafa;
$backcolor2=#c0c0c0;
$backcolor=$backcolor1;// we assign color 1

This code has to be written before the loop starts, so somewhere
before line 11.

In the loop (11-23) we need to switch between the colours where
we write the colour of the tr. So we write something like :

(fig b)
echo 'tr style=background-color:' . $backcolor . ';';
// continue with the rest of td... /td/tr here
// which is - your code.

This will print out the first background color, nice. Now we need it
to switch color, so we need to add a little logic. This will be inserted
right before the loop ends (infact, you can put it where ever you like
aslong as its in the loop).

(fig c)
if($backcolor=backcolor1)
$backcolor=$backcolor2;
else
$backcolor=$backcolor1;

As you see above the logic is quite simple, if the color is 1 - we set it
to 2,
else we set it to 1. If you think of it, if you process this logic over and
over again
you will infact get 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2 all the time, :) Nice!

There you have it, and I hope you got the hang of it.

To take your code and implement my colorswither all you need to do is,

1. On line 21 replace #00 width $backcolor
2. Insert the logic (figc), all lines, into line 19
3. Place fig a in line 4.

Re: [PHP] Can't fetch HTTP POST data in PHP?

Here is j2me code snippet:

byte[] postData=This is my test line! It works!
Yipi-Yai-Yee!!!.getBytes();

try{

c = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url_post);
c.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
c.setRequestProperty( User-Agent, Profile/MIDP-1.0
Configuration/CLDC-1.0 );
c.setRequestProperty( Content-Language, en-US );
c.setRequestProperty( Content-Type, text/plain);
c.setRequestProperty( Connection, close);
c.setRequestProperty( Content-Disposition,attachment;
name=\userfile\; filename=\userfile_txt\);
c.setRequestProperty( Content-Length, Integer.toString(
postData.length ) );

os = c.openOutputStream();
os.write( postData );
os.close();
os = null;


Here is PHP code snippet:

//Here I see HTTP method, and response is POST
:
echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'];
:

:
// Show any post vars, but nothing shows - never!
if(count($_POST)0){
 echo POST.$new_line;
 print_r($_POST);
 echo $new_line;
}
:

// try with upload files array
if(count($_FILES)0){
 echo FILES.$new_line;
 print_r($_FILES);
 echo $new_line;
}


That's it.

The right place for you to discuss that is [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
(aka php-dev) as it is where most core developers hang out.

Anyway, I don't think Zend people will allow a competing extension be 
included in the core PHP distribution precisely because it compromises 
their business.

At most, they will not object to be included in PECL extension 
repository as PECL extensions are not shipped with standard PHP 
distribution.

Either way, another problem of Turck is that it uses a GPL license. Most 
people do not understand that GPL software is not really free for the 
users despite what it is advertised.

There are restrictions in the GPL license that prevent the software that 
uses it to be linked with other software without imposing license 
contamination, ie, software based on GPL license becomes GPL.

This is incompatible with PHP and Apache licenses which are BSD based. 
Unlike GPL, BSD like licenses are really free for the users. So, linking 
PHP or Apache with GPL license would make them less free.

Most people do not understand this licensing thing very well because 
they confuse free as in gratis which is what Apache, PHP and others with 
BSD like licenses, with strictly conditional free of the GPL software.

IMHO, if you really want to make software free without confusion, forget 
GPL.

This is exactly the reason I started this thread by asking Who controls
PHP? ... Thanks for clearing this out.

 Either way, another problem of Turck is that it uses a GPL license. Most
 people do not understand that GPL software is not really free for the
 users despite what it is advertised.

Yes, a good point. I could suggest that they change the license Lesser GPL,
but of course I don't know how it goes (I don't have any connections to
Turck people). I had to verify that it is really GPL, and it seems so.

 This looks you are expecting to receive a POST request with PHP. So, are
 you wanting to send one or receive one?

The problem was the lack of concatenation operators around $id2. If you

I can't be bothered to figure out a test case, but you apparently have a SQL
injection risk with your code. You're assuming that the data from the client

 Receive one.

Is it possible for you to show us the HTTP request that is failing? It is
possible that it is malformed in some way that is fine with some Web
servers and not with others.

You might be able to use ethereal (http://www.ethereal.com/) to get the

This is a very good point. To highlight an example in the sample code you

 foreach ($_POST['accomodatieid'] as $Key = $Value)
 {
  $query = INSERT INTO ttra (reisid, accomodatieid)

  $result = mysql_query ($query)

You're using values from $_POST (which can be anything, since it's data
supplied by a user, potentially a malicious one) directly in the SQL
statement that you send to MySQL. This grants a lot of power and
flexibility to the user, which is very dangerous.

In addition, you loop through $_POST, so that even unexpected data might
be used. This is even worse than expected data with an unexpected format.

To fix this, assign the data you find in $_POST to another variable (or
array) once you determine that it is valid. For example:

$safe = array();
if ($_POST['foo'] is valid data)
{
 $safe['foo'] = $_POST['foo'];
}

Then, you can use the $safe array, and only a flaw in your data filtering
(whatever code you use for is valid data above) will create the same
security hole that you currently have.

Hope that helps.

 Is it possible for you to show us the HTTP request that is failing? It is
 possible that it is malformed in some way that is fine with some Web
 servers and not with others.

That may be possible but I am testing ASP i PHP(4.3.2) on same server IIS
5.0, localy.
Can't sniff that (Network adapter not in use)

Other, remote server I am using is Apache on RedHat Linux.

Here is failed POST REQUEST to that server:
*
POST /http_post.php HTTP/1.1

User-Agent: Profile/MIDP-1.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.0

Host: www.milleniumtip.com:80

Content-Disposition: attachment; name=userfile; filename=userfile_txt

Connection: close

Content-Type: text/plain

Content-Length: 47

Content-Language: en-US



Here is response:

 You might be able to use ethereal (http://www.ethereal.com/) to get the

For sniffing HTTP traffic I am using EffeTech HTTP Sniffer. Works OK.

Content-Type tells us that it is plain text, but there is nothing (it

Re: [PHP] Can't fetch HTTP POST data in PHP?

[Ivan Marenic]

I did not omit content.
Copied whole text box in sniffer using context menu comands (select all,
copy) - pasted to news agent.
There is no content.

However, when using local server, on my desktop, I assume there is content
because I am getting response from ASP page with exact data wich is sent
from client.
PHP page responses exactly the same as the one on remote Apache server.

I have mental fog in my mind write now.

[PHP] Unzip a file.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

Is there an easy way to unzip a zipped file which contains files 
(images), using a function from the zlib or any.
To something like that:

exec(unzip zipfile.zip -d /path/to/images) ;

But without using the exec function.

Thanks,

[PHP] Example In Changes in PHP 5/Zend Engine 2.0

[chong wee huat]

Below is the first php example found in Changes in PHP 5/Zend Engine
2.0 

?php
class MyClass {
private $Hello = Hello, World!\n;
protected $Bar = Hello, Foo!\n;
protected $Foo = Hello, Bar!\n;

function printHello() {
print MyClass::printHello()  . $this-Hello;
print MyClass::printHello()  . $this-Bar;
print MyClass::printHello()  . $this-Foo;
}
}

class MyClass2 extends MyClass {
protected $Foo;

function printHello() {
MyClass::printHello();  /* Should print
*/
print MyClass2::printHello()  . $this-Hello; /* Shouldn't
print out anything */
print MyClass2::printHello()  . $this-Bar;   /* Shouldn't
print (not declared)*/
print MyClass2::printHello()  . $this-Foo;   /* Should print
*/
}
}

$obj = new MyClass();
print $obj-Hello;  /* Shouldn't print out anything */
print $obj-Bar;/* Shouldn't print out anything */
print $obj-Foo;/* Shouldn't print out anything */
$obj-printHello(); /* Should print */
?

The result not same as stated in the remark. No print for
$obj-printHello().

It only print with the code below

$obj = new MyClass();
//print $obj-Hello;  /* Shouldn't print out anything */
//print $obj-Bar;/* Shouldn't print out anything */
//print $obj-Foo;/* Shouldn't print out anything */
$obj-printHello(); /* Should print */

Accessing protected variable cause the output fail, why?

Re: [PHP] Re: Alternet row colors

[Keith Greene]

It's so much easier to use the mod (%) operator:

using the mod operator, you can check if a variable is divisible by some 
other number without leaving a remainder.
For this example, we want to change every other row, so we would compare 
our $count against 2 to see if it leaves a remainder:
$bg = ($count%2==0) ? #00 : FF;

What this line does is FIRST, it checks to see if $count/2 leaves no 
remainder. If this is true, it sets the $bg var to #00
If it is false, it sets $bg to #FF

It only requires the addition of one line of code, and to replace your row 
background color with a php variable.
Also, you don't need to use printf(), since you aren't specifying any 
formatting.

See code below:

code:---
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM albums where id 15);
$Count = @mysql_num_rows($result);

 echo table border=1 cellpadding=3 cellspacing=0 bordercolor='#00'\n;
   echo trtd bgcolor='#66'ID/tdtd 
bgcolor='#66'ARTIST/tdtd bgcolor='#66'TITLE/tdtd 
bgcolor='#66'LABEL/tdtd bgcolor='#66'PRICE/td/tr\n;

 for ($count = 0; $count  $Count; $count++) {
   // Extract post details from database
$myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result);
   $id = $myrow ['id'];
   $artist = $myrow ['artist'];
 $title = $myrow ['title'];
 $label = $myrow ['label'];
 $price = $myrow ['price'];
$bg = ($count%2==0) ? #00 : FF;
   echo tr 
bgcolor='.$bg.'td$id/tdtd$artist/tdtd$title/tdtd$label/tdtd£$price/tr\n;
}
 echo /table\n;

Well, first of all Ill just scrap you script since this one is so easy
its better to do it from scratch.
OK, somewhere in your script you have the code that accually
aoutputs the tables you are working with. Im refferring to lines
here, and Im meaning the bottom of this document which is
the scipt you posted, and I have numbered the lines.
Overview of your script.
Line 5 - we print out the table header
Line 11 - 23 is the loop which prints out all the lines, or rows.
Line 24 closes the table.
So what we have to do?

First we need to declare the values we want to use as backround
colours, lets use logical names :
(fig a)
$backcolor1=#fafafa;
$backcolor2=#c0c0c0;
$backcolor=$backcolor1;// we assign color 1
This code has to be written before the loop starts, so somewhere
before line 11.
In the loop (11-23) we need to switch between the colours where
we write the colour of the tr. So we write something like :
(fig b)
echo 'tr style=background-color:' . $backcolor . ';';
// continue with the rest of td... /td/tr here
// which is - your code.
This will print out the first background color, nice. Now we need it
to switch color, so we need to add a little logic. This will be inserted
right before the loop ends (infact, you can put it where ever you like
aslong as its in the loop).
(fig c)
if($backcolor=backcolor1)
$backcolor=$backcolor2;
else
$backcolor=$backcolor1;
As you see above the logic is quite simple, if the color is 1 - we set it
to 2,
else we set it to 1. If you think of it, if you process this logic over and
over again
you will infact get 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2 all the time, :) Nice!
There you have it, and I hope you got the hang of it.

To take your code and implement my colorswither all you need to do is,

1. On line 21 replace #00 width $backcolor
2. Insert the logic (figc), all lines, into line 19
3. Place fig a in line 4.

Re: [PHP] Can't fetch HTTP POST data in PHP?

[Arne Rusek]

Hello.

I read throughout this thread and it looks like I have encountered
the same problem. Everything looks just fine but somehow the PHP
does not parse the request data sent to the script. I did some research on
that but gave up since I couldn't find how and where those data were
parsed. But I've used the PHP for a few days maybe it's just my
stupidity. Some of you more acquainted with the topic will find some info
I've gathered useful eventually.

I used this form:

form action=test.php method=POST
Your name: input type=text name=username/br/
Email: input type=text name=email//br
input type=submit name=submit value=Submit me!
/form

The test.php script contained this code:

?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
echo pre\n;
phpinfo();
echo /pre\nbr/;
var_dump($_POST);
?

Then I saw a pretty large page but at the end there was

array(0) { }

and _that_ seemed to me pretty strange.

If someone is interested in reading through the whole result it could
be downloaded from

http://zonk.matfyz.cz/php_post_problem

I tried to change the method to GET but it didn't work either. The result
could be seen at

http://zonk.matfyz.cz/php_get_problem

Take care.

Ok, you're getting into semantics now. 
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.php doesn't say whether 
it is acceptable or not, but as Robert pointed out, if your script is 
purely php, omitting it is a good way of eliminating the headache of 
trailing white spaces that may interfere with headers.

No, I'm getting into the reality that an undocumented feature may very 
well be a bug, and may disappear.

There are two different things being discussed, and I'm not positive which
is considered a bug.

1. When a closing PHP tag, such as ?, is followed by a newline, the
newline is not output.
2. When a script has no closing PHP tag, such as ?, it is assumed to be
the end of the file.

Personally, I think the first makes no sense while the second makes
perfect sense. The second, to me, is no different than how many other
things are cleaned up automatically. Your database connections are closed
even when you don't explicitly close them, for example. Should PHP throw
an error when it reaches the end of the file and is still in PHP mode? Is
that really a problem?

Now, I admit that I am a big fan of symmetry, so I never omit a closing
PHP tag. However, why should it be considered an error if the end of file
is reached in PHP mode instead of output/HTML mode?

The first point above annoys me to no end. Imagine this code:

table
 tr
  td
   ? echo $username; ?
  /td
 /tr
/table

Now, I'm not trying to argue for one format over another, but doesn't it
seem clear that the author of this code wanted the value of $username to
be on its own row, indented by one tab within the opening and closing cell
tags? Should the newline that follows the closing PHP tag not be output? I
think that it should, but it is not.

That's my argument. :-)

Re: [PHP] Include an encoder into PHP distribution?

[Manuel Lemos]

Hello,

On 11/15/2003 07:31 PM, John Smith wrote:
Anyway, I don't think Zend people will allow a competing extension be

This is exactly the reason I started this thread by asking Who controls
PHP? ... Thanks for clearing this out.
I was not saying or implying that Zend controls PHP alone. In practice 
they have the knife and the cheese in their hands, meaning currently 
PHP programs depend on Zend Engine to run. Maybe when somebody develops 
real PHP compilers things will be different.



Either way, another problem of Turck is that it uses a GPL license. Most
people do not understand that GPL software is not really free for the
users despite what it is advertised.


Yes, a good point. I could suggest that they change the license Lesser GPL,
but of course I don't know how it goes (I don't have any connections to
Turck people). I had to verify that it is really GPL, and it seems so.
I don't know if changing to LGPL would be sufficient to be acceptable by 
PHP group. Still, you don't know if Turck author wants to change its 
license from GPL.

The fact is that according to Turck benchmarks, it beats both Zend Cache 
and PHP-Accelerator. Since one of the important factors is Turck 
optimizer that is used by either the cache and the encoder, I do not 
know if Turck author wants to authorize the use of Turck code in closed 
source programs including Zend encoder and IonCube encoder, as it is 
potentially better and he may not be interested that competing encoders 
use their code.

Of course, since Turck code is publically available, nothing would stop 
any closed source developers to steal his optimizer ideas or even code. 
However, keeping it GPL he would not be legitimizing it, regradless if 
that would prevent any real stealing to occur.

Anyway, you should ask directly Turck author about his interest to 
change the license just in case Zend/PHP group ever agrees on an 
eventual contribution of Turck extensions, not just the encoder, but 
also the optimizer and the cache that seem to be probably the best in 
the market.

The contact address is below in this page but I am not sure if it is 
upto date.

That does seem strange. I glanced at this page of yours:

 http://zonk.matfyz.cz/php_post_problem

And I saw this:

REQUEST_METHOD = GET

So, why was the request a GET request rather than a POST request? There is
no content nor any entity headers either, so it doesn't seem like this
line (telling us that the request method was GET) is wrong.

However, I also don't see any URL variables, so it doesn't seem like the
HTTP request contained any form data, whether GET or POST.

 http://zonk.matfyz.cz/php_get_problem

This looks a bit better. We still have a GET request method, and the query
string has something:

QUERY_STRING = username=zonkemail=zonksubmit=Submit+me%21

However, I can't explain why a print_r($_GET) would not display the
username, email, and submit form variables. Maybe you can try:

echo $username;
echo $_GET['username'];
echo $_POST['username'];
echo $_REQUEST['username'];
echo $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

Hopefully one of this will output something relevant. Otherwise, I suppose
it's possible that there is a bug in the CGI SAPI, unless I'm missing
something.

Hope that helps.

Im the original author to this thread, and this is an attempt to bring back 
this thread to square one, as it was straying in other directions that 
doesn't apply to me.

Command Line editors used.
ee, vi, vim, joe
X GUI editors used
Quanta, Gvim

Currently all these editors add what appears to be a \n after a closing ?
This I believe is normal, because all *nix files contain a \n at the end of 
lines.
I had a theory that output buffering was cleaning up my code, but this isn't 
the case, as I've turned off output buffering and Im still getting the same 
results.
Speaking of results.  Im not getting the infamous headers sent error.
My scripts operate normally.
The reason why I started this topic was to get some ammunition to ward off 
windows GUI editor users who claim that my code contains white space after 
the closing ? tag.

Some dummy code -
x.php
?php
?

y.php
?php
include('./x.php');
var_dump(headers_sent());
?

y.php returns false, even though, there is apparently a \n after the 
closing ? tag of x.php

You may download my dummy code and view them in a windows GUI php editor, and 
see the extra line after the closing ?
http://www.trini0.org/white_space.zip

So going back to my original question -
So is white space only physical space (\s) or can it be anything like
\t \r \n???

.Thanks

[PHP] Segfault using ibase (firebird) with PEAR

[Jos Romero (SistemasJG)]

Hi folks,

I'm very new to PHP and PEAR. But I'm having very strange troubles
with this simple thing.

I'm trying to run the following script into a php file:
  ?php
require_once 'DB.php';
$db =
DB::Connect('ibase(firebird)://SYSDBA:[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]//var/lib/firebird/data/database.gdb');
// The same error ocurrs with or with out the (firebird) string in
// the DSN
$res = $db-query('SELECT * FROM USERS');
echo $res-numRows();
while ($row = $res-fetchRow()) {
  echo $row[0];
}
  ?

So simply, uh?

But when the line containing $res = $db-query('SELECT * FROM
USERS'); is executed inmediatly I've a segfault of PHP in the
Apache's access.log file and a 404 Error in my browser.
Commenting this line out , the page is shown empty, as usual.
Using ADODB or ibase* functions, the same procedure (stablish the
connection, run the query and show the results) is done with out any
problem.


Thanx in advance,

No need for regular expressions here.

$str = 'well, how do I do this? should i experiment?';
$newStr = str_replace('? ','?? ',$str);
echo $newStr;
// should echo well, how do I do this?? should i experiment?

Unless you want ANY white space (\n, \t, etc) instead of just spaces, 
an ereg would be better.  I prefer preg_replace():

$newStr = str_replace('/?(\s)/','??\\1',$str);

[PHP] Limiting repetitive file access

[Andre Dubuc]

Hi,

Recently, a 'user' attempted to access a restricted area of my site 
repetitively (spanning five hours) entering the same url repetitively 
[probably by script]. A massive log file was generated. I would like to ban 
such behavior by limiting the number of successive 'get's a user can do (say 
4 attempts) before an appropriate action is taken..

As a temporary measure (until I can figure a better way) the url in question 
was disabled.

What I'd like to do, on a per-file basis using $_SESSION, is a combination of 
ipaddress perhaps with a counter that records the number of times that file 
was accessed, and limit the number of successive 'get's that can be done 
before the file is no longer accessible.

In a script that checks for bad words, I have used:

?php

if ($_SESSION['text'] = badwords){
 $_SESSION['attempt'] = 1; 
header(location: unwanted.php);
}

[In the file unwanted.php I checked for $_SESSION['attempt'] = 1 and booted if 
the condition was met]

However, using this approach I cannot augment this number without resorting to 
a file get/put schema. Is there a way around this? Is there a better 
approach?

I've tried .htaccess but the user in question has a dynamic address.

Any help appreciated.
Tia,
Andre

Re: [PHP] Limiting repetitive file access

Hi,

While your solution is feasible it would still consume processor and 
memory because you are doing this at a very high level, you will
be better of solving this at a lower level by a proper use of a 
firewall. What you have described sounds like a kiddie script attempt at 
a denial of service or brute force cracking.

You may want to check here

The functions are read only. I don't know if this will do it, but it

However, if you just want to execute the command line app on the OS and
