[PHP] PEAR::Auth
Concerning PEAR::Auth
I can't tune interaction between PEAR::Auth and MySQL auth table .
Typical code from manual
?php
$dbtype = 'mysql';
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = '';
$dbpass = '';
$dbname = cosmos;
$dsn = $dbtype://$dbuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/$dbname;
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
mysql_select_db($dbname);
require_once Auth/Auth.php;
function loginFunction(){
echo form method=\post\ action=\ . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . \;
echo input type=\text\ name=\username\;
echo input type=\password\ name=\password\;
echo input type=\submit\;
echo /form;
}
$a = new Auth(DB, $dsn, loginFunction);
$a-start();
if ($a-getAuth()){
echo OK;
}
?
With typical SQL statement from manual:
CREATE TABLE auth(
username VARCHAR(50) default '' NOT NULL,
password VARCHAR(32) default '' NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (username),
KEY (password));
I tried:
INSERT INTO auth VALUES ('qq', 'pp');
After submitting the login form the process buzzes on the procedure start();
I tried too:
INSERT INTO auth VALUES ('qq', PASSWORD('pp'));
I tried (using phpMyAdmin):
GRANT SELECT , INSERT , UPDATE , DELETE , CREATE , INDEX , ALTER ON * . *
TO qq@ localhost WITH GRANT OPTION MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 0 MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR
0 MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR 0 ;
But process buzzes on the procedure 'start()' as before;
Could you show me the simple
but concrete example of MySQL query
that make the above php-code working with
login (for instance) 'qq' and password 'pp'.
Thank you

Re: [PHP] Query Returning Error
You can get around this problem more easily by putting your variables
inside curly brackets when they appear inside strings.
See here:
http://uk.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.parsing.complex
Or as an example:
?php
$Query01 = SELECT * FROM Users
WHERE UserID = '{$_POST['TXT_UserID']}'
AND UserPassword = '{$_POST['TXT_UserPassword']}';
$Result01 = mysql_query($Query01) or die (Error 01: . mysql_error());
?
Note also that you didn't quote the index you were using inside the
$_POST array. This is wrong - it will work in raw PHP because it will
be interpreted as an undefined constant, and thus replaced with the
string, however the behaviour inside a quoted string is even less
correct, and will almost certainly not do what you expect.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Chris

I have also found some smaller ones that are less appealing. Is FPDF a suitable replacement to PDFlib or should I be looking to use another library? Any other comments are welcome about FPDF.

I could But on massive file uploads the various gateways between clients and server are timing out. I've no evidence that PUT would help me solve this problem, but it's an avenue I thought worth pursuing, as the whole point of the PUT method is to send large quantities of data to a server. I am hoping that the gateways will respect this fact (although I'm not holding my breath). If anyone has any alternate suggestions (other than Stop using MS gateway servers, which is unfortunately impossible given our clients), I'd be happy to hear them.

Subject: [PHP] Exporting HTML to Excel
Hi all.
This may not be completely a PHP question, but hopefully you will be
able to provide some insight. I have a table in HTML that I want to
export to an excel spreadsheet. Using PHP, I can create an excel
document - however, it's empty/blank. I think I am just doing it
incorrectly. Anybody done this before and/or have any ideas? I would
prefer to NOT use a third-party program.
I've searched the web and php.net, but have been somewhat
unsuccessful
in finding anything. Here's what I have so far:
-
?php
header('Content-Type: application/ms-excel');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=project.xls'); ?
table
tr
tdSomething/td
/tdSomething else/td
/tr
/table
-
I just want it to have that content in the spreadsheet. It's actually
more involved than that, but that's the gist of it.
Thanks in advance.

To all who've helped.
Thanks for your input. [embarrassment] Truthfully, when I gave that
example in my original email, I didn't try that specific one. But it
did work for me also when I attempted that one. [/embarrassment]
The reason I was getting a blank spreadsheet was b/c I was
only showing
specific columns based on whether certain $_SESSION variables
were set.
However, the page that's supposed to export to excel, I did
not include
my `session_start()`, so none of the variables were ever TRUE. Once I
saw that and fixed it, it worked like a charm!
But I have run across a small dilemma at this point. I cannot
open the
excel file using IE. However, I can through Mozilla and Safari. Guess
this is something else I have to look at and try to tackle!
Thanks again!
~Philip
table
tr
tdSomething/td
/tdSomething else/td
/tr
/table
Btw: the example above has a /td instead of a td on the second cell
so it puts the values in A1 and A2 instead of A1 and B1.
Yeah, I realized that also whenever all of my items were going in
column A. But I fixed that.
Another note, I put a td=A1+B1/td and it worked fine (put the
formula in and it evaluates just fine that is).
Neeto feature!
Also, if you're having trouble in IE (I didn't, it worked fine) you
might try changing the MIME type to something that'll download and give
the option of save/open. There was another thread on this list about
creating folders (not with PHP, but opening a file dialog so the user
could create a folder for the download) that had a lot of good info
about forcing the browser to open that dialog box.
What problem are you having in IE right now? Is it opening INSIDE IE
as
an Excel sheet embedded or something (like PDFs do with Acrobat
Reader)?
I had that happen once or twice while testing the code above.
Well, whenever I click on the link to export to excel (in IE), a File
Download box pops up. It says the 'File name: toexcel.php' and the
'File type: ' (blank). It asks if I want to open or save. However, the
File name should not be toexcel.php (that's the page), it should be
'project.xls'.
The error message I get whenever I try to Open or Save the file is: IE
cannot dowload toexcel.php from your.server.com. IE was not able to
open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or
cannot be found. Please try again later. This is obviously not true
b/c I can download from elsewhere.
Here's what I have included in the top of my file (just to reiterate):
header('Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=project.xls');
I tried adding the `vnd.` to the content-type, thinking that IE might
like that better, but it didn't. It works just the same though.
Anyway, good luck. Glad you figured out the session problem, that can
be
frustrating.

I have been having all kinds of problems with the mail() function in PHP. I realize that there are problems inheritly, but I think I am still trying to track down the problem.

I know that our system is supposed to be using qmail that actually sits on a different server, but I found interesting information in phpinfo that is making me wonder if a local sendmail is handling the requests instead. Here are the things I am finding in phpinfo: sendmail_from no value no value sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i SMTP localhost localhost smtp_port 25 25 Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i Enviornment MAIL /var/mail/kpratt (what does this one do?)

I've had issues with this also and the solution was to change the session.cache_limiter value. It interfered with the download for some reason. A search of the archives should bring up some relevant threads. Yes, this is on a secure server. I don't have access at this point to the .ini file at this point, but I will look into this when my supervisor returns tomorrow. Do you happen to know what value to change the session.cache_limiter to? I'll search the archives also. ---John Holmes...

Re: [PHP] mail problems - phpinfo information
I have been having all kinds of problems with the mail() function in PHP. I realize that there are problems inheritly, but I think I am still trying to track down the problem. My latest theory is that PHP isn't set up to work with the right mailing program. I know that our system is supposed to be using qmail that actually sits on a different server, but I found interesting information in phpinfo that is making me wonder if a local sendmail is handling the requests instead. Here are the things I am finding in phpinfo: sendmail_from no value no value sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i SMTP localhost localhost smtp_port 25 25 Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i Enviornment MAIL /var/mail/kpratt (what does this one do?) With all of the above refering to sendmail, is there anyway that my mail() can actually be using qmail? Thanks! The mail settings in php.ini is for Windows only. When using PHP on Unix/Linux, mail() always defaults to the sendmail binary on localhost. So you can ignore what it says in phpinfo. My mail server at home is running Qmail as well as the web server I run at my work. (Quick plug, Qmail rulez!1!1!!)...okay, anyways, since Qmail comes with a sendmail wrapper you should have no problems using it with the mail() function. If your Qmail server is on a remote host, then you need to configure the local server's sendmail program to relay mail to the remote server. /var/mail is where users mail boxes are stored when using to old mail format mbox. Qmail uses the newer format Maildir which resides in user's home directory. So it looks like you have a user by the name of kpratt? -- --Matthew Sims --http://killermookie.org -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Without seeing your classes, PHP4 classes will not work with PHP5. The OO
model has been completely revamped. So if the code works in PHP4 but not
in PHP5, my guess is that you either need to downgrade to PHP4 or re-code
your classes to fit the PHP5 OO model.

Subject: [PHP] Exporting HTML to Excel
Hi all.
This may not be completely a PHP question, but hopefully you will be
able to provide some insight. I have a table in HTML that I want to
export to an excel spreadsheet. Using PHP, I can create an excel
document - however, it's empty/blank. I think I am just doing it
incorrectly. Anybody done this before and/or have any ideas? I would
prefer to NOT use a third-party program.
I've searched the web and php.net, but have been somewhat unsuccessful
in finding anything. Here's what I have so far:
-
?php
header('Content-Type: application/ms-excel');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=project.xls'); ?
table
tr
tdSomething/td
/tdSomething else/td
/tr
/table
-
I just want it to have that content in the spreadsheet. It's actually
more involved than that, but that's the gist of it.
Thanks in advance.

so are you saying that the code can't handle '$rs-rows[0] = $rec'

i tried to print $rs-rows[0], and got an 'Undefined offset: 0' err msg

[PHP] Image upload not working correctly
Hello. I am working on a rather large form for my work that accepts, among
other things, 2 images, one smaller one 65 x 93 pixels, and a larger one 105
x 150 pixels, both in JPG format. Let me run through the whole process,
showing my code.
I use simple, standard HTML for the form:
input type=file name=thumbImage size=15
input type=file name=fullImage size=15
I check the $_FILES array to make sure the server uploads the images:
array(2) {
[thumbImage]=
array(5) {
[name]=
string(15) DAK01_thumb.jpg
[type]=
string(11) image/pjpeg
[tmp_name]=
string(14) /tmp/phpXxmX1s
[error]=
int(0)
[size]=
int(7161)
}
[fullImage]=
array(5) {
[name]=
string(14) DAK01_full.jpg
[type]=
string(11) image/pjpeg
[tmp_name]=
string(14) /tmp/php05LOkc
[error]=
int(0)
[size]=
int(12235)
}
}
I do the following error checking for various things:
// Small Thumbnail Image
if (trim($_FILES[thumbImage][tmp_name])) {
if ($_FILES[thumbImage][size] 10240) {
$formVars[results] .= The small photo must be 10240 bytes or lessbr
/;
}
if ($_FILES[thumbImage][type] != image/pjpeg
$_FILES[thumbImage][type] != image/jpeg) {
$formVars[results] .= The small photo must be in .jpg formatbr /;
}
$imgSize = getimagesize($_FILES[thumbImage][tmp_name]);
if ($imgSize[0] 65) {
$formVars[results] .= The small photo must be 65 pixels wide or
lessbr /;
}
}
// Full Image
if (trim($_FILES[fullImage][tmp_name])) {
if ($_FILES[fullImage][size] 20480) {
$formVars[results] .= The large photo must be 20480 bytes or lessbr
/;
}
if ($_FILES[fullImage][type] != image/pjpeg
$_FILES[fullImage][type] != image/jpeg) {
$formVars[results] .= The large photo must be in .jpg formatbr /;
}
$imgSize = getimagesize($_FILES[fullImage][tmp_name]);
if ($imgSize[0] 105) {
$formVars[results] .= The large photo must be 105 pixels wide or
lessbr /;
}
}
Then, I move the temp image files:
// Copy image to $GLOBALS[dvdimgpath].$_POST[gameId]._[thumb/full].jpg
$thumbPath = $GLOBALS[dvdimgpath].$_POST[gameId]._thumb.jpg;
$fullPath = $GLOBALS[dvdimgpath].$_POST[gameId]._full.jpg;
echo Thumb image uploaded to .$thumbPath.br /\n;
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES[thumbImage][tmp_name], $thumbPath)) {
$formVars[results] .= Image file could not moved to the images dir.
Please try again;
}
echo Full image uploaded to .$fullPath.br /\n;
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES[fullImage][tmp_name], $fullPath)) {
$formVars[results] .= Image file could not moved to the images dir.
Please try again;
}
Everything works fine, except that the images are simply not there when we
go look for them. The best explanation I can come up with is that they are
not moved, but I have no idea why. I've done this with no problem on my
personal site. Is it a problem with the move_uploaded_file function? Any
ideas?
Thanks!

Re: [PHP] ezmlm-sub or alternative
Thanks so much for the insight which is a much simpler way.
I successfully set up a test page (a form) that takes email to, from,
subject and body and sends it.
?php
$emailto=$_GET['emailto'];
$emailfrom=$_GET['emailfrom'];
$emailsub=$_GET['emailsub'];
$emailbody=$_GET['emailbody'];
$headers = From: $emailfrom\r\n;
$headers .= Return-Path: $emailfrom\r\n;
if(mail($emailto, $emailsub, $emailbody, $headers)) {
echoEmail Sent;
exit;
}
echo Email Error;
?
However, when I send a message to subscribe to the EZMLM list, it sends
ok, but doesn't get added to the list. When I send a test message to
myself I noticed that the Return-path in the email sent is not what I
set in my script, but that of the apache user. I wonder if that is
where the EZMLM-sub gets the address for submission and is sending the
confirmation to the dead mailbox.
Any insight?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,
I'm writing a little script (my 3rd) that takes name (first, last)
and email address
and writes it to txt file and submits the email address to an EZMLM
list server.
All is well but I'm not sure where to go for the submission.
The command line - ezmlm-sub works (from the shell)... if the user is
root or vpopmail.
Is there a safe way to run the shell command via a php script?
Or can someone suggest another way to submit an address to ezmlm.
You can make use of the public interface to ezmlm-sub by sending an
email to listname[EMAIL PROTECTED]
You'll need to set the 'From:' header of your emails to the address of
your subscriber.
You can find information on the mail() function at

[PHP] deleting multiple items from a database
Hey everyone, I'm trying to delete multiple records from a database using
PHP. I have a file list page which shows each entry in the database with a
checkbox next to it. At the bottom of the page is a Delete button. A
user should be able to check as many items on the file list and hit delete
which would cause all checked items to be wiped from the database.
Unfortunately I'm running into really erratic behavior with this. First the
page worked fine on Mac(in the Safari browser) but not on IE on any OS.
Now I can only delete the first time in the list but ONLY in Safari once
more.
As far as the code goes what I'm doing is retrieving each record from the
database and assigning the value attribute of each checkbox the unique id
from the database. From that point on, when a checkbox is checked and the
delete button is pressed, I push each checked unique id into an array and
then call a function that cycles through the array and deletes each database
entry. The last step is a simple page refresh. I'm posting some of the
more relevant sections of the code I've used below:
echo form action=\{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}\ method=\post\;
//form declaration
echo input type=\submit\ value=\Delete\value=\Submit\;
//The delete button
tdinput type=\checkbox\
value=\{$row['upload_id']}\/inputbr//td;//This is what the
checkbox is coded as
$stack[] = $row['upload_id'];//This should get pushed into an
array called stack when the delete button is hit(and it does when I echo it
out, so this part works)
echo /form;
if (isset($_POST['stack'])) {
deleteFiles();//This checks to see if the array stack is not
empty, and if not it calls this function which is declared as shown below.
}
function deleteFiles() {
foreach($_POST['stack'] as $i) {//This should work but I can't
tell if it is or isn't
mysql_query(DELETE FROM uploads WHERE upload_id = . $i);
}
header(Location: http://; . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);//forces a
page refresh to show the file list without the items that were deleted.
}
I appreciate any help I can get on this.
Thank you
Adil.

For sanity of your mysql database, you might consider making this one
query.
Something like
DELETE FROM table WHERE id IN (32,34,46,432,35);
generating your list of numbers/ids from your array...

This is your problem, you need to give the checkbox a name:
input type=checkbox name=stack[] value=...
When the form is submitted $_POST['stack'] will contain an array of
items that were checked.

[PHP] question about mkdir() and ownership permissions
PHP General List, I am trying to use mkdir() on a shared unix server to create a directory within my home space. I have to have the ability for my user on this server to upload to this folder, however I think that mkdir() creates the directory and makes it owned by the process running Apache -- nobody, httpd, or apache depending on the system (which is someone else's so I don't know) I get permission denied when I try to upload to these folders. I suppose I could use mkdir and specify the mode as 0777 to give broad write access to these folders, but I always thought this was a security risk. Does anyone know how I can create a directory which is owned by my user account on this server-- or have any other creative suggetions? Thanks. Jason FB

[PHP] Determine variable with the lowest value?
Any help with this would be appreciated. I am trying to come up with something that will find which variable(s) have the lowest value and inidicate which variable this is. In the event that variables have an equally low value then it is to randomly pick one of the variables and idicate which this is. I have been able to do this by means of if comparisons but the more I variables I add then the more complicated and messy it becomes. There has to be a simpler way. If it makes any difference, the variables could just as easily be array elements. example: $a = 2 $b =2 $c= 4 $d= 5 $e=6 $f =7 the code should determine that $a and $b have the lowest value, and randomly pick one of them. if $a was = 1 instead then it would just pick $a Thanks for any suggestions! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Form Validation
There are several JavaScript solutions for validating forms on the client side. Search on hotscripts.com and google.com. Client-side validation (in the browser) is useful, but you shouldn't depend on it to guarantee that the data that your users submit is valid. You should also validate the data in your PHP script as you process the form. Oh, and there are several PHP-based list managers available, for instance phplist, so you may not need to program it yourself. /Mattias Huang, Ou wrote: I am currently working on a newsletter mailing list project and developed a form in php.
