RE: [PHP] Dynamic to Static
Hello Ed,
We have used a combination of the following scripts on our site:
/jim
if ((filemtime(cache/$sidid) + 60) time()) {
$cachefile = fopen(cache/$sidid,r);
fpassthru($cachefile);
exit();
}
// start buffering the output
ob_start();
// output format - either www or file
$output = outputfile.php;
$data = ob_get_contents();
$fp = fopen (inputfile.inc, w);
fwrite($fp, $data);
fclose($fp);
ob_end_clean();
echo finished;

If so, what solutions are you using to achieve this? Thanks, Ed Hey Ed, there are a couple of ways that you can do it depending on your needs. Probably the easiest way to do it is to generate the entire page once and cache it for some period of time (1 hour?) and then serve that page until you determine it should expire. OR You could create a static part of a page and a dynamic part of a page. HTML works best for the static part (obviously :) and then you just get the php code you need for the dynamic. If this is your choice, then you'll probably want to cache MySQL query results and as much of the personalized user information as possible - dbm files can work well for this. OR If there isn't much personal information (but a lot of users... you DO have a lot of users right? ;) you can be really stingy and store some user data in a cookie. Usual rules for cookies apply here, but basically if you have very little personalized info needed for every page then this can be more efficient than db calls. OR Try using one of the software packages out there that cache php byte code (especially if you have a lot of includes). If you absolutely demand dynamic generation and want a performance boost, Zend can help you out a lot in this department. OR Some other solution someone more clever than I has come up with :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: [Q] PHP 101 -- How to check for session existence?
Hey Michael, I think you really only need to check the $_SESSION array,
not necessarily each index.
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
// login
header('Location: ' . MEMBER_LOGIN_PAGE);
} else {
// session exists
}
However, if you want to have non-empty values for your session variables
you should use:
if (empty($_SESSION['username'] || empty($_SESSION['session_id']) {
// session indexes username and / or session_id are empty
header('Location: ' . MEMBER_LOGIN_PAGE);
}
There is a fine difference between isset() and empty(). Check the
online manual or this newsgroup for further discussion.

Although you can turn on zend engine 1 compatibility, if you intend to
distribute your code you cannot expect this on most servers. Another
way to pass by value is to use the __clone method.
function test($orig, $clone) {
$orig-x = 'I am the original.';
$clone-x = 'I am a clone.';

To protect certain web pages on my site, I am using the following code
inserted at the very beginning (top) of the page:
?php
include_once( 'init.php');
if( isset( $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['session_id'] ) == FALSE ||
isset( $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['username'] ) == FALSE ){

Is this a recommended way of doing this?
Next, to initialize the session, a login page posts the username -
password
information to a PHP script, check_login.php. The login info is checked
against a database and, if all is kosher, a new session is created and the
user is dispatched to the site's home page. Here's the relevant code:
?php
include_once( 'init.php');
...
$username = trim($HTTP_POST_VARS['username']);
$password = trim($HTTP_POST_VARS['password']);
... if username and password check out, initialize a session...
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['username'] = $username;
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['session_id'] = crypt( $password );
header( 'Location: '.SITE_HOME_PAGE );
...
?
Does this make sense? Am I missing something? Any review, advice, etc.,
would be much appreciated.

Re: [PHP] upload an image and store it in mysql
I have php code that takes text input from a webpage and and stores it in a mysql data base.
I tried uploading small images (jpg) using basically the same syntax but they don't make it into the data base.
Does anyone know of a simple tutorial that shows how to do this?
although I'm against storing files in databases...
$file =
mysql_real_escape_string(file_get_contents($_FILES['yourfile']['tmp_name']));
$query = INSERT INTO yourtable (imgdata) VALUES ('$file');
Thanks, that seems to work. Although trying to retrieve them and show them in a
browser shows characters / symbols instead. This

Another reason for not storing images in a database - you need to spit

To be honest I don't know enough about the internals of the apache module to tell you why it's better for an apache server (would love it if someone could explain!).

Basically, there's a lot of extra work in running PHP as a cgi. There are some benefits to having the cgi available though. For example, if you're at a unix prompt and need to process a file.

If so, what solutions are you using to achieve this? I looked at doing it, wrote a single PHP-page that when I accessed would make static pages for me (numbering in the thousands), but it was all for nought as the pieces of code I included in the web pages made for not being able to get a PHP-session variable and hindering my cart process. Maybe I could change the code in some way to get the correct information where I need it, but at this time the functional way to do it was with leaving the pages dynamic.

[PHP] File locking in PHP???
Hi! I saw the php function flock(), since I never used it before so I thought I would ask you folks a couple of questions. 1) Is this function good or is there a better function somewhere that I'm not aware of? 2) If the flock() activated the file lock then is it possible that I manually unlock the file? Like chmod or something through the Linux console for example. 3) good example of script just in case..

RE: [PHP] Storing text with carriage returns in MySQL
The major difference between TEXT and LONGTEXT data types is the size (65k vs 4Meg). The function addslashes() will resolve many user input problems where the user; Inputs a quoted value in the middle of his string. Uses and and in text. Inputs other ASCII control characters like tab and bell (remember that one). Just to name a few. Usually MySQL will strip slashes when the column is retrieved, however care should be taken when displaying the value on a form (inside another text area should be no problem). Suppose a user codes the following bTEST/b to be stored in your database, you have to decide if you want that displayed on a web page as bold text or exactly as input. If you want it to appear exactly as the user typed it in, check out the htmlspecialchars() function.

But you say that you sometimes have problems which implies that sometimes it works. Could you explain how it works? We just flush it on the display. the php-script is an image src like img src=showImage.php That's interesting. The showImage.php does an include of the image which is located out of the DocumentRoot. The image is generated by a cron script. Mostly it works but sometimes we have the problem described above. And anyway why are your images in safe_mode_include_dir in the first place? Cause php-scripts (owned by different uids = therefore the safe_mode_include_dir ) of various virtual servers make use of the image. Several suggestions: 1) If the various virtual servers have no need to perform file operations anywhere else then you may get away with setting open_basedir appropriately. 2) Use the safe_mode_gid switch. 3) If cronjob is owned by root then have it create images for each of the virtual servers and set permissions accordingly. -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design Hosting * Internet Intranet Applications Development * -- Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general -- /* Why are we importing all these highbrow plays like `Amadeus'?

Hi, I am trying unsuccessfully to set up an email form and as far as I know my code is fine, but it won't send. I suspect that it's because my server requires authentication.

On Linux I don't get a specific error message, the mail just never shows up. I am in the right ballpark here with the authentication, and if so, how can I get around this..? Thanks
Re: [PHP] problem with super global '$_REQUEST'
You can't unset $_REQUEST. All it does is unset the reference to it in
the current context. It still exists elsewhere. If you *really* want
to get rid of $_REQUEST, you should do it this way:
unset($GLOBALS['_REQUEST']);
But I would advise against that. Why exactly are you unsetting a superglobal?

Re: [PHP] problem with super global '$_REQUEST'
I found the answer, as my second post on this told.
Why unset the globals?
I plan on implementing filters on all User input to ALL scripts in the prepend file.
And if someone wants to get a variable that was supplied by a user, they have to
specifiy if it's going to be INT, STR(with options to remove run on spaces, validate
email addr, remove carriage returns to prevent embedded email directives) 'NUM' type
with formatting like in databases, and also, anti SQL injection escaping is possible.
The programmer will HAVE to choose which filtering, but strip tags is automatic. I'm
not going to have XSS holes or SQL injection on my site.

Re: [PHP] Re: problem with super global '$_REQUEST'
You *can* unset it, you just have to unset the place where it really
sits. When you have a global in a function, then unset it, you only
disconnect the variable. unset doesn't destroy a variable, it just
breaks the reference.
As I said in my earlier e-mail, using this *will* work (I tested it):
unset($GLOBALS['_REQUEST']);
$GLOBALS is itself a superglobal.hmmm, wonder what would happen if
you unset($GLOBALS['GLOBALS'])

[PHP] Offset error
Hello, error: PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /home/ant/test.app/teste3/getfiles.php on line 217 I have this Undefined offset error in PHP because I am trying to get a value from this $att[$k]-parameters[1]-value that sometimes does not exist with offset 1 as the parameters go up to 0 and not one. Can anyone tell me how to test the offset 1 or more in the array $att[$k]-parameters[1] so that I can avoid this error? Thanks. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] problem with super global '$_REQUEST'
Ok
Why not just set the values in $_REQUEST then?
AbstractEnvironment::stripTagsArr($_REQUEST);
Or something like this:
foreach($_REQUEST as $key = $val) {
$_REQUEST[$key] = stripTagsNStuff($key, $val);
}

I found the answer, as my second post on this told.
Why unset the globals?
I plan on implementing filters on all User input to ALL scripts in the prepend file.
And if someone wants to get a variable that was supplied by a user, they have to
specifiy if it's going to be INT, STR(with options to remove run on spaces, validate
email addr, remove carriage returns to prevent embedded email directives) 'NUM' type
with formatting like in databases, and also, anti SQL injection escaping is
possible. The programmer will HAVE to choose which filtering, but strip tags is
automatic. I'm not going to have XSS holes or SQL injection on my site.

You can't unset $_REQUEST. All it does is unset the reference to it in
the current context. It still exists elsewhere. If you *really* want
to get rid of $_REQUEST, you should do it this way:
unset($GLOBALS['_REQUEST']);
But I would advise against that. Why exactly are you unsetting a superglobal?

I have a function in a class that unsets the superglobal $_REQUEST;
Well, it's supposed to, it doesn't do it. I'm on version 4.2.3 of PHP. This page:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php#language.variables.superglobals
says that $_REQUEST is a super global as of version 4.1.0. Is there some bug I
don't know about or am I doing something wrong?
Here's the code:
?PHP
$_REQUEST[var1]=\scriptscript stuff/script;
$_REQUEST[var2]=a_string_of_course;
$_REQUEST[arr1][elem1]=scriptscript stuff2/script;
$_REQUEST[arr1][elem2]=another_string_of_course;
if( !defined('TEST_UNSET') ){
define('TEST_UNSET', TRUE);
class abstract_environment{
var $_REQUEST;
function abstract_environment(){
$this-_REQUEST=$_REQUEST;
unset( $_REQUEST );
echo(unset was done);
$this-_clean_all_vars();
}
function _clean_all_vars(){
//ADD OTHER PROCESSING AS NEEDED
$this-_strip_tags_arr( $this-_REQUEST );
}
function _strip_tags_arr( $arr_or_solo ){
if( isset($arr_or_solo) ){
if( !is_array($arr_or_solo) ){
$arr_or_solo= strip_tags($arr_or_solo);
} else {
reset ($arr_or_solo);
while (list($key, ) = each ($arr_or_solo)) {
if( isset($arr_or_solo[$key]) ){
if( is_array($arr_or_solo[$key]) ){
$this-_strip_tags_arr($arr_or_solo[$key]);
} else {
$arr_or_solo[$key] =
strip_tags($arr_or_solo[$key]);
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
$abs_env=new abstract_environment;
echo pre;
print_r($_REQUEST);
print_r( $abs_env );
echo /pre;
?

Re: [PHP] Offset error
if(isset($att[$k]-parameters[1])) {
//use $att[$k]-parameters[1]-value
}
or, assuming indexes start at 0 and are sequential:
if(count($att[$k]-parameters) 1) {
//use $att[$k]-parameters[1]-value
}

RE: [PHP] image
I would recommend you start here; http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php As I understand you are trying to understand the process where an image tag in hmtl causes a browser to request an image be loaded, but because the image statement looks something like the following; img src=path/to/my/phpscript.php It causes the browser to request the server to send the phpscript.php file, and since the server knows that .php files are executable, the server then executes your module. If your module begins by outputting the appropriate mime headers that indicate the type of image the script will generate, it then takes the remaining characters sent by the script as the actual image itself. Hope this is what you are looking for.

Re: [PHP] Encrypting passwords from page to page -mcrypt question
Scott Taylor wrote: I would like to go from page to page, submitting the password through a GET query string. Of course I wouldn't want to do this unencrypted. So is mcrypt the best option? I think to submit the password on the query string is a really bad idea. What will happend if a user decides to mail the URL to someone? Any recipient of that message would have access to the password protected data. In my opinion, passwords NEVER should be sent to the client computer in any form (encrypted or not). I will recomend to find a different way to authenticate the user on every page wich does not require sending him the password.

[PHP] Embedded Email Directives

Should I filter all CR and LF Just in headers or also I should do that in the message body? (Which is sent in the SMTP DATA section).
