[PHP] Semi-OT: Anti-password trading/sharing solutions
Hello, all - First, I'd like to appologize for treading a bit off-topic here, but I think that it will cover a lot of questions that others may have. My company hosts several Adult-oriented Web Sites. Among other tools that we use to combat Password Trading are ProxyPass and iProtect. They're both amazing products, which stop the use of Shared Passwords by detecting multiple logins from different IPs, and they also maintain a database of known abused proxies that are often used in conjunction with these shared/traded passwords, and block connections from them accordingly. The real magic comes about when you consider how these pieces of software actually work. They don't modify any existing authentication systems, but rather, they're both Apache modules. I've been unable to find an Open Source version of these programs, which I've been looking for, for quite some time. At more than $50.00 per license for ProxyPass and $300.00+ for iProtect, this would be more than a handful back in the pockets of my company, and ultimately, mine, when you consider the amount of our servers that run these tools. I've found one solution that looks promising called PureMember, but this too, costs a bit. Seeing that is what prompted me to write to the PHP list, because it makes itself into an Apache module using an mmencode procedure. With that being said, what kind of solutions might the PHP community suggest to combat the trading and abusing of shared or traded passwords? These solutions cannot modify the existing authentication procedures - meaning, I cannot convert a site that relies on .htaccess/.htpasswd authentication to a SQL-based authentication. The solution needs to have some sort of logging, either locally or remotely. The solution also has to be Open Source. I eagerly await some feedback on this, because like I said, I'm sure there are others that have some of these same questions.

[PHP] Pop-up message
At the risk of being shouted at because *I* know it's not a PHP problem! I have a page that is being refreshed every 30 seconds or so, and displays a list of 'tickets' waiting to be dealt with on a list from a database query. No problems there, but a couple of sites now want me to add a pop-up warning when a ticket is added that has a staff ID matching the logged in user. I can drive a sounder in the target browser, but need kicking in the right direction for a method of adding a pop-up window. Ideally it needs to be browser agnostic, which is where the problem comes given the pop-up blockers and other 'toys' that are being added to the browser end of things. So can anybody point me in the right direction for a CURRENT method of achieving this, many of the bits I've found so far are somewhat antiquated, and fail in one way or another :( -- Lester Caine - L.S.Caine Electronic Services -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] problems with several JPEGs in GD2
Hi, PHP 4.3.10, GD2 I've noticed that there is a group of JPEG files that cannot be operated with GD2 functions. For example, if you try to imagecreatefromjpeg(my.jpg) it replies: Warning: imagecreatefromjpeg(): 'my.jpg' is not a valid JPEG file in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\test.php on line 20 (this is not a scripting error, it works with lots of other jpegs) Meanwhile the same my.jpg file can be shown in web browser by HTML tag img src=my.jpg, can be opened in PhotoShop.. and other programs.. But GD2 thinks that it is not a valid JPEG.. Any suggestions how to deal with these types of JPEGs in GD2? Any workaround?

Re: [PHP] Problem submitting a POST request by hand
The problem is that the URL which I posted to doesn't display in a
browser again. I want to do the following:
1) www.someserver.com/feedback.phtml sends the user-entered form data to
www.someserver.com/mailer.php
2) www.someserver.com/mailer.php (the example below) checks these data
and submits resulting parameter list via POST method back to
www.someserver.com/feedback.phtml and loads it again
3) www.someserver.com/feedback.phtml displays again in a browser
according to received POST parameters...
PROBLEM: www.someserver.com/feedback.phtml doesn't load again (a blank
page is displayed). I discovered by accidant that if I add the echo $c;
line then the page loades but the c value's string is seen on the top.
How can I get the www.someserver.com/feedback.phtml loaded again without
this trick?

Re: [PHP] How to retrieve form data?
You are correct, and I must apologize.
In addition to the modifications below I added a pair of brackets
to the select clause:
select name=item[]
After removing those the $_POST array looks much better
and I was able print the selected item using
echo Selected item is: .$_POST['item'];
Results now:
---
Using printr, $_POST array contains:
Array
(
[item] = select item 1
)
Selected item is: select item 1

[PHP] textarea posting duplicate text
Hello. I have been asked to look at a PHP issue for someone, and I can't
figure out what the problem is. I'm hoping one of you experts can help!
They are using Red Hat Linux / Ensim Pro 4.0.2, PHP 4.3.10, and Apache 2.0.
The problem: When a lot of text is entered into a textarea on a form, the
text that shows up in the $_POST['textarea'] variable has the text that was
entered, but it is duplicated. This is causing problems for their forums.
Here is a very simple script I placed on the server:
www.tidefans.com/textarea_test.php (code below)
When I place the same script on another server I have access to, the
textarea text is posted fine.
Is this a PHP setting somewhere that I'm missing?
Here is the code for the PHP script mentioned above:
html
head
titleTest PHP Script/title
/head
body
form method=post action=textarea_test.php name=Form1
textarea cols=50 rows=20 name=textarea
//[a bunch of text goes here]
/textareabr
input type=text name=text size=20 value=This is some textbr
input type=submit name=Submit value=Submit
?php
if ($_POST[Submit] != )
{
echo h1_POST values/h1;
echo pTextarea submitted:/p;
echo pre . $_POST[textarea] . /pre;
echo pTextbox submitted:/p;
echo pre . $_POST[text] . /pre;
echo pSubmit submitted:/p;
echo pre . $_POST[Submit] . /pre;
}

I think you should read his post before telling him to RTFM. AFAICT He wants to move the files, not copy them.

Does anyone have a nice function that will resize an uploaded image to specific width/height dimensions? I wanted to find something that would work for only GIF and JPG image types. I've converted my shopping cart application from Cold Fusion to PHP and need to create thumbnails and reduce the size of large uploaded images. I've already done a google search and found an example but can't get it to work for some reason and it includes a bunch of other stuff that's not needed and too much trouble to remove.

[PHP] Improving a MySQL Search
I'm creating a serious of pages that show various aspects from a Syslog output. The main information is currently stored in one MySQL table - which after having been run for about 2 and a bit months has got nearly 100 records. With this amount of information, it's taking a large time to carryout even the simplest query. Someone has suggested I look at setting up an archive, for slower searches, and a more recent table for quicker searching, but I'm reluctant to do this, as it would take quite a bit of time to copy all the information across as it stands, and then also to run a cron which transfers between the live and archive. Can anyone suggest some quick easy methods for speeding up the search? Cheers James
Re: [PHP] function to resize images
Dave! I would start by reading the PHP manual. Look for a function called 'imagecopyresized()'.

This one works for me: currently I have a max of 600kb on upload which is

$pix_temp_file = $_FILES[pix][tmp_name];

if(is_uploaded_file($pix_temp_file)){
move_uploaded_file($pix_temp_file,
/your_site/web/pix/{$_SESSION['rid']}-{$_SESSION['sid']}.jpg);
}
$original =
/your_site/pix/{$_SESSION['rid']}-{$_SESSION['sid']}.jpg;
/* Resize the uploaded picture */
$dest_h = 190;
$dest_w = 117;
// create the blank limited-palette image
$base_image = imageCreate($dest_w, $dest_h);
move_uploaded_file($base_image, /your_site/pix/convert.jpg);

imagejpeg($base_image, '/your_site/pix/convert.jpg');

$src_w = imagesx($imageToResize); // Current Image
Width
$src_h = imagesy($imageToResize); // Current Image
Height
// resize the original image over temp.jpg
// since you have GD2, you could also use imageCopyResampled
imageCopyResized($image, $imageToResize, 0, 0, 0, 0, $dest_w,
$dest_h,
$src_w, $src_h);
// values for output jpeg quality

They're both amazing products, which stop the use of Shared Passwords by right up there with Clippy(tm) and the AOL webbrowser. detecting multiple logins from different IPs, and they also maintain a database of known abused proxies that are often used in conjunction with these shared/traded passwords, and block connections from them accordingly. The real magic comes about when you consider how these pieces of software actually work. They don't modify any existing authentication systems, but rather, they're both Apache modules. I've been unable to find an Open Source version of these programs, which I've been looking for, for quite some time. At more than $50.00 per license for ProxyPass and $300.00+ for iProtect, this would be more than a handful back in the pockets of my company, and ultimately, mine, when you consider the amount of our servers that run these tools. so you spend 350 dollars per server, you wouldn't do it unless it made money, besides I'll bet the clients actually pay it (or you spend your own money to provide free hosting to hard-up 'adult content providers') - so really your looking for a OS variation so that you can pocket the extra 350. ah do all the other pr0n peddlers have TWO porsches'? poor little Dan must be feeling left out. I've found one solution that looks promising called PureMember, but this too, costs a bit.

These solutions cannot modify the existing authentication procedures - meaning, I cannot convert a site that relies on .htaccess/.htpasswd authentication to a SQL-based authentication. The solution needs to have some sort of logging, either locally or remotely. The solution also has to be Open Source. I eagerly await some feedback on this, because like I said, I'm sure there are others that have some of these same questions. can anyone else see a good reason to sit down a write a a free OS apache module that stops passwd sharing so that some porn peddler can make more money? sarcasm I for one would love to donate all my free time to making you rich, but only on the condition that you can prove at 50% of all the females portrayed in the media offered by 'your clients' can truthfully have the following said about them: 1. they have been forced fed drugs. 2. they have had their passport withheld. 3. they are beaten/raped regularly. 4. they have Shires Horses forced upon them. /sarcasm or maybe you could go f*** yourself (no doubt one of your clients can provide an instruction video).

You probably have PHP installed as an RPM or some other kind of pre-packaged binary from your Linux distribution. You can either search for PHP mhash module with the *SAME* version numbers of PHP, or you can un-install the pre-packaged stuff and compile from source code. Had you compiled from source code, the configure part would be self-evident, as that is the first step in compiling from source code. It's also possible you are using Windows, in which case you need to search for a php_mhash.dll (or similar name) again from the *SAME* version, or you need to buy Visual C++ compiler and attempt (and probably not have much success for a long time) to compile PHP from source. Do *NOT* attempt to use an mhash Module unless you are 100% certain it was compiled with the same PHP version as what you have (see http://php.net/phpinfo).

[PHP] header('www-Authenticate ...') Problem
I can't remember where the example below came from, but the event handler
for the 're-authenticate' button doesn't allow a re-authentication
following a successful login. If you run the code, it allows you to login
the first time, or even catch the incorrect password and display via the
line with the comments in the authenticate function after 3 failures. But
after a successful login, trying to re-authenticate by hitting the button
only redisplays the network login box without the password. And after 3
failures,
Password = . $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] displays just Password = so
obviously $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] is never getting a value the second time
through.
This IS NOT a mission critical problem, but it is bugging me. It perhaps
is an Apache issue...?
Testing environment is Win2k, Apache 1.3.31 with SSL ( though behavior is
the same on Apache without SSL), and PHP 4.3.7.
Comment very welcomed.

If I want some other size, I just use:
http://example.com/scale.php/target/150/full/path/to/originalfile.jpg
where 150 is the max width/height I want.
I wanted to find something that would work for only GIF and JPG image
types.
Looks like I just output a JPEG no matter what the input is -- You'll have
to add another 'switch' statement much like the one near the top to decide
which kind of image to output.
Probably be a good idea to add some error-checking right after the
getimagesize call, and if that failed, just die().

You probably have PHP installed as an RPM or some other kind of pre-packaged binary from your Linux distribution. You can either search for PHP mhash module with the *SAME* version numbers of PHP, or you can un-install the pre-packaged stuff and compile from source code. Had you compiled from source code, the configure part would be self-evident, as that is the first step in compiling from source code. It's also possible you are using Windows, in which case you need to search for a php_mhash.dll (or similar name) again from the *SAME* version, or you need to buy Visual C++ compiler and attempt (and probably not have much success for a long time) to compile PHP from source. Do *NOT* attempt to use an mhash Module unless you are 100% certain it was compiled with the same PHP version as what you have (see http://php.net/phpinfo). If you do attempt to do that, it might even work for awhile, but will cause huge problems sooner or later. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm - Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: [PHP] textarea posting duplicate text
Elizabeth Lawrence wrote:
Hello. I have been asked to look at a PHP issue for someone, and I can't
figure out what the problem is. I'm hoping one of you experts can help!
They are using Red Hat Linux / Ensim Pro 4.0.2, PHP 4.3.10, and Apache
2.0.
The problem: When a lot of text is entered into a textarea on a form, the
text that shows up in the $_POST['textarea'] variable has the text that
was
entered, but it is duplicated.
Have you verified that the POST data itself is doubled?...
This sounds REALLY weird to me...
This is causing problems for their forums.
Here is a very simple script I placed on the server:
www.tidefans.com/textarea_test.php (code below)
When I place the same script on another server I have access to, the
textarea text is posted fine.
Is this a PHP setting somewhere that I'm missing?
There's certainly on double long POST data setting :-)
It could be a bug in PHP or Apache -- Search their bug databases.
http://bugs.php.net/ for PHP.
http://apache.org/ should lead you to it for Apache.
You're on your own for Ensim Pro, whatever that is.
I would also recommend that you start LOGGING the text inputs that are
giving problems as they come in.
EG:
?php
$input = $_POST['input'];
$len = strlen($input);
if ($len 10 substr($input, 0, $len/2) == substr($input, $len/2)){
error_log(Double Input: $input);
}
?
This may lead you to finding some commonality in the input text other than
length that is not immediately apparent right now.
Actually, I guess you *COULD* just use the code above or similar to
automatically strip out the doubled text -- But document/comment the hell
out of that unless you want to confuse every developer that ever looks at
it!!!

Let's assume, however, that you actually have \ in front of each embedded

that you want the \ to be embedded in your string.
$body = preg_replace('/lt;(.*?)gt;/es', 'highlight_string(\\1,

At this point, you are replacing HTML entities lt; and gt; with their

Re: [PHP] problems with several JPEGs in GD2
Mario Lopez wrote: I've noticed that there is a group of JPEG files that cannot be operated with GD2 functions. For example, if you try to imagecreatefromjpeg(my.jpg) it replies: Warning: imagecreatefromjpeg(): 'my.jpg' is not a valid JPEG file in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\test.php on line 20 (this is not a scripting error, it works with lots of other jpegs) Meanwhile the same my.jpg file can be shown in web browser by HTML tag img src=my.jpg, can be opened in PhotoShop.. and other programs.. But GD2 thinks that it is not a valid JPEG.. Any suggestions how to deal with these types of JPEGs in GD2? Any workaround? I encountered this recently (except the PhotoShop part), and it turned out that: 1. The JPEG in question was *NOT* a JPEG at all. 2. The JPEG in question was *REALLY* an .art (ART) file. 3. ART files are an AOL invention in a proprietary format. 4. AOL takes an image (JPEG or GIF) Converts it to the other format (GIF or JPEG) Blindly chooses the smaller file size, Saves it as an .ART file. But sometimes simplifies life for AOL Users by pretending it's a JPEG 5. So *YOU* end up with a file that ends in .jpg but isn't a JPEG 6. And most/some non-AOL browsers happily display these ART files The Linux file command is what properly identified the file for me, I *think*... Not 100% sure on that part. Oooh, maybe IrfanView was the tool that tipped me off that I was dealing with a bogus JPEG. IrfanView Rocks! Try the GIMP too -- Almost for sure not that, as I was using a Windows box at the time, so wouldn't have had GIMP installed. (Yes, I know GIMP runs on Windows now) AFAIK, You can undo the ART packaging *only* by installing all of AOL (ugh!) and then opening up the image in their editor and doing a Save As... It only took me 10 minutes to figure out that after starting AOHell, I could *CLOSE* the window that looks like a modal dialog that pushes me to connect/signup with AOL and then I can use the Tools menu (or whatever it was) to open/edit/save the image. If you Google for ART JPEG AOL Convert you should find the same pages I did that led me down this path to success. YMMV NAIAA IANAL Somebody from the OpenSource community who wants to fix this issue by writing some quick hack utilities to easily identify and un-package ART files to non-proprietary... errr, less-proprietary, formats would probably gain a lot of reputation quickly and easily. I don't grok enough about image formats to do it myself. Of course, *YOUR* images may not be ART images, and might just be broken JPEGs. They might also be using some fancy JPEG thing that GD2 doesn't support... Interlacing? GD2 does that, though, I think... Maybe something like that. So maybe they *ARE* JPEGs, but are using a feature of JPEGs that GD2 doesn't do -- Open up a bunch of good images in PhotoShop, and bunch of bad ones and see what they have in common in terms of features like Interlacing and Gradients (?) and, err, other PhotoShop-y things of which I'm ignorant.

No problems there, but a couple of sites now want me to add a pop-up warning when a ticket is added that has a staff ID matching the logged in user. Your first task is to convince the client what an incredibly stupid idea this is. And that it won't work with all the popup blockers. And if it did work, it would just annoy the [bleep] out of their users. I know I'm preaching to the choir, here, but I have to go on record with this statement. I can drive a sounder in the target browser, but need kicking in the A sounder? You mean like make my browser make noise? ICK!!! right direction for a method of adding a pop-up window. Ideally it needs to be browser agnostic, which is where the problem comes given the pop-up blockers and other 'toys' that are being added to the browser end of things. You're not going to defeat the popup blockers in the long run. You are better off using clean simple code in an onLoad in your body tag to open the new window. Something like: body onLoad=window.open(URL); where the URL loads in that user's recently added items. Either the users will accept the popup and whitelist it in their popup blocker, or they won't. And if a lot of them don't accept it, as they shouldn't, that tells you right there what a dumb idea this was. :-) But running around to find code to defeat the popup blockers will be a total waste of time -- and you'll end up with something so hacked and so un-maintainable that you'll have to fix it every six months, even if the popup blockers don't find workarounds to block your workarounds that popup the windows that they don't want popped up. So can anybody point me in the right direction for a CURRENT method of achieving this, many of the bits I've found so far are somewhat antiquated, and fail in one way or another :( Perhaps it would be better to segregate the tickets into those associated with the User logged in, and those that are not. Or to at least sort them that way, regardless of their other sorting options. For that matter, don't even *BOTHER* to show me items that aren't mine, unless I specifically ask for them. Build a system that detects tickets that sit un-assigned for too long, and randomly assigns them, or, better yet, assigns them based on factors such as: Ticket features (IE, interface tickets to interface team members) Productivity (IE, don't assign as many tickets to your slow team members as your fast ones) User Status (IE, if I'm on vacation, don't assign me anything) . . . That way, no tickets is left sitting there too long but nobody has to deal with tickets that aren't assigned to them. Just an idea.

I believe, in fact, that the Apache Module part of it boils down to the code Rasmus Lerdorf wrote ages and ages ago, and that mostly Rasmus (I think) has maintained since then. Perhaps with Apache 2, somebody else stepped up to write/maintain that code, and I'm under-informed. Or maybe Rasmus hasn't touched that code in ages, and somebody else is doing it now. Apologies to those individuals who I've slighted by not naming them at this time. At any rate, you're trying to get in contact with a handful of people by sending email to thousands. Bad Idea #1.

Next, let's look at your proposal: You want something that Member Sites need, to avoid the theft/sharing of username/passwords. So, in particular, only for-pay Member Sites need this, mostly, as there's not much point in stealing/sharing a username/password if you can just get one for free. So, basically, it's a for-profit motivator that drives this request. Yet nowhere do I see an offer of recompense for the developers who write this software for you. Bad Idea #2. I highly recommend you figure out what it would be worth to you and some of your colleagues/friends to have an OpenSource solution to rival the current proprietary technologies. Take up a collection or form a very loose consortium with some of your colleagues to fund the project. Then write up a specification for what you want done, and make an offer to PAY somebody and fund the resources needed to get the project from its current state (gleam in your eye) to a usable state. You could and probably should still make it OpenSource -- Perhaps with Funded by: attributions on all source code and materials to plug your consortium and its members -- and then when it's at the stage of usefulness that you need, you will probably find that some people are willing to maintain it for little or no money at all. Right now, though, you've got a lot of people seeing: I want you to work for me for free so I can save thousands of dollars every month That ain't gonna happen, dude.

Is it possible to fork away this PHP code and set some SESSION vars to trigger the end of the status page? Or do I have to put this action behind a one pixel image and act when the page is really complete? Also I'm not sure how to handle the script execution timeout problem... Do you really expect the user wants to sit there for all the time waiting for the process to finish? Is there ANY way to factor out that code and do it before they get there? Obviously not for a search where the user types in what they want, but is that what you are doing? You don't say; I can't guess. Basically, if I have to sit there waiting, then I'm not really all that impressed with an animated gif or whatever... Perhaps you have them logged in already, and you could record their search parameters and assign it an ID, and perform the search in the background, and then have a page to deliver the results to later. In other words, let me start up a couple searches, go do something else, and come back later for my answers if I can't have them RIGHT NOW.

I know absolutely nothing about how ProxyPass, iProtect, and PureMember work, however, so perhaps there is something about them that just screams use PHP to do this [I doubt it though] It seems to me, however, that you're still a bit off-target on PHP-General, as your target audience is not those who use PHP, but those who wrote it and maintain it, particularly the Apache Module part of it. I believe, in fact, that the Apache Module part of it boils down to the code Rasmus Lerdorf wrote ages and ages ago, and that mostly Rasmus (I think) has maintained since then. Perhaps with Apache 2, somebody else stepped up to write/maintain that code, and I'm under-informed. Or maybe Rasmus hasn't touched that code in ages, and somebody else is doing it now. Apologies to those individuals who I've slighted by not naming them at this time. At any rate, you're trying to get in contact with a handful of people by sending email to thousands. Bad Idea #1. NOTE: Contacting Rasmus directly and offering him $$$ to do this would maybe not be a Bad Idea. Asking him to do it for free would be really stupid. Next, let's look at your proposal: You want something that Member Sites need, to avoid the theft/sharing of username/passwords. So, in particular, only for-pay Member Sites need this, mostly, as there's not much point in stealing/sharing a username/password if you can just get one for free. So, basically, it's a for-profit motivator that drives this request. Yet nowhere do I see an offer of recompense for the developers who write this software for you. Bad Idea #2. I highly recommend you figure out what it would be worth to you and some of your colleagues/friends to have an OpenSource solution to rival the current proprietary technologies. Take up a collection or form a very loose consortium with some of your colleagues to fund the project. Then write up a specification for what you want done, and make an offer to PAY somebody and fund the resources needed to get the project from its current state (gleam in your eye) to a usable state. You could and probably should still make it OpenSource -- Perhaps with Funded by: attributions on all source code and materials to plug your consortium and its members -- and then when it's at the stage of usefulness that you need, you will probably find that some people are willing to maintain it for little or no money at all. Right now, though, you've got a lot of people seeing: I want you to work for me for free so I can save thousands of dollars every month That ain't gonna happen, dude. People wrote PHP and Apache and other OpenSource software because THEY needed it for THEIR own use, and were willing to give it to you for FREE because they knew that giving away 10,000 free copies would get them one (1) more Developer to help build/improve the software. They did *NOT* do it because they wanted you to be able to run your company on free software. Which is not to say that they *MIND* that you can do that -- Only that they're not going to just up and code something just because *YOU* happen to need it to run your company more efficiently. You've got zero incentive for the Developer here -- They don't need the Module you want, and you're not paying them. [shrug] Go ahead and look at my first email. For some reason you didn't get the idea that I was looking for solutions. Ideas. I wasn't looking for anything solid. The reason why I wrote to the PHP community was to get some ideas. Aside from the two people who have sent me hatemail today, the PHP comunity is very intelligent, very clever, and might have worked on something like this in the past. That's the information that I was after. Rasmus? Waht's he got to do with anything? Sure, I value and credit the work he's put into PHP, but I really think that using his name in this context has no point. Who asked anyone to write any software for me? Again, let's focus on the primary purpose of this email - to gather information so that I can do some further investigation. You know, you're right. It's stupid for me to think that Open Source software is used in for-profit situations. PHP, Apache, MySQL, Linux in general - it's really stupid to think that they might actually help someone make money, isn't it. This is what you are saying, as per Stupid Idea #2. I'm not going to get into an argue with you over the moral values of Open Source software. I understand them fully. Gratitude and in some cases money is given to people left and right for their technical abilities by myself and others. I will always regret not being ABLE to contribute more.

DEPOSIT will be refunded when: A) A user closes out their account by their own choice B) A user has proven their ability to play well with others B) is totally at the whim and discretion of the Game Master DEPOSIT will be *LOST* if you get booted off for causing trouble. So now if they want to make a new user and cause problems, it's gonna cost them $25.00 every time. Don't think you'll have too many users doing that for very long. And if you do, well, hell, you've got a pile of money out of it at least. :-) Just one thing: Don't even *THINK* of borrowing money from that DEPOSIT to cover any kind of emergency expense or anything like that. You'll end up in deep deep trouble if you do. You may need to give other people (GMs) the ability to vet people and refund the deposit on their say-so. Then set it up so a GM has some money on DEPOSIT as well. If they clear somebody who then turns into a trouble-maker, guess what? The $25 comes out of the GMs DEPOSIT. Yeah, you're gonna lose some players. Yeah, you may have to approach this *REAL* delicately and get the existing GMs to agree that *something* has to be done, and if having $25 on deposit is the only answer, so be it.

[PHP] Current dilema for Novice
Hello Everyone, I'm somewhat new to PHP. I've read quite a bit of material and have a background with perl and Apache and Linux. Let me explain my situation. - Fedora Core 3 with Apache 2 and PHP - Using SSL. - Each Directory under $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] is an NFS mounted directory (read only). - The directories may contain various numbers of subdirectories - New directories may be created by various individuals - The application data being stored can be accessed by an application created .htm file. - The .htm file created by the application always has the same name. My goals are: - provide encrypted connection - provide security for each directory (and sub-directory) under $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']. - Find all files with a .htm suffix by recursively going through all sub-directories. - Create links for each .htm file on a single page. - Use parent directory of each .htm file (since there will be only one) as the name of the link to the file - Prevent displaying of other directories under $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] - Single Sign page for all customers - Each user will only have access to one directory under $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] - Authentication process should move customer to appropriate directory under $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] What I've done so far: First, let me state that some of the requirments weren't initially present when the design started... - The server has been set up with SSL and is working properly - The SSL site goes to $DOCUMENT_ROOT (which is currently a blank index.htm) file, preventing users from drilling down - Each site is currently configured to use Apache Digest Authentication. My experience with PHP site design comes from the book 'PHP and MySQL Web Development' which mainly dealt with web sites as Applications (e-commerce, blog, etc) and not from a file system stand point. Most was object oriented with includes and what not which would require pages in every subdirectory under the DOCUMENT_ROOT in order to comply with the application design. Having a solution to require this would not be practical; however I'm not sure if there's another way to approach. By using the Digest Authentication I know that the Directories in the realm would be covered... - My original index.php script (that I need to debug as it's not working yet) was designed to be placed in each respective directory directly under DOCUMENT_ROOT. The script, hopefully, will go through each directory, find out what files are directories or files. If it's a file I'm trying to push basename (but needs to get the directory name it resides instead) and the URL if the file suffix ends with .htm. If it's a directory, it should push the directory to an array. Calling a function in a while loop and shifting the array should recursively take me through all subdirectories. The end result should be a table on the index file that the user's would be able to click on to take to the .htm file. Right now I'm having a problem with my foreach statement... What's needed: - Simple but effective. It's not going to be feasible to add a lot of .php files to subdirectories. These directories are really working directories so this is a headache. There are more that just .htm files. That is not the problem. Just don't want the people to have to dig down. -A single sign-on would be great. Each user only needs to access one directory under DOCUMENT_ROOT. I know that SSL uses the IP address and I can't break up the SSL into multiple virtual hosts so I can't do that. The security must provide protection from somebody trying to get in from a subdirectory From my limited knowledge of PHP, I would think that creating a solution to support this would take some time. But like I said I sure don't know everything. If anyone has any suggestions (and estimations of time it would take) I would appreciate it.

[PHP] _POST not working (using mini_httpd) - 2 attachments
Hi all, I'm learning PHP and I'd need to create a simple Web-based ifconfig
tool for a Soekris box (running Pebble). However, I've been unsuccessful at
getting PHP working with mini_httpd. In particular, the POST data is not
being received. Here's what I did...
First, I applied (only) the SCRIPT_FILENAME and index.php modifications to
mini_httpd.c, as suggested in:
http://m0n0.ch/wall/list/?action=show_msgactionargs[]=15actionargs[]=11
Then I built installed this on a (regular) Debian box, which had php4
installed from apt. (This doesn't seem related, but for some reason, when I
start up, I get a warning: socket: Address family not supported by
protocol.)
Next, I created some simple PHP files, and I found that POST data isn't
getting through at all. Googling didn't really turn up much, and I know
this is possible because the m0n0wall project does just this (download
their rootfs and look at the PHP files under /usr/local/www).
I've attached a simple test.php that doesn't work (always prints no
post), along with my /etc/php4/cli/php.ini. If you uncomment the stdin-
reading lines, the server won't respond (I think because it's trying to
read stdin that's not there, or that has no EOF.) Here is the page's
initial output:
HTTP_ENV_VARS:
/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin
/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib
mini_httpd/1.19 19dec2003
dell400
CGI/1.1

192.168.1.101
Opera/7.54u1 (Windows NT 5.1; U) [en]
192.168.1.104:8000
And here is its output after a submit (when I set method to post):
HTTP_ENV_VARS:
/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin
/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib
mini_httpd/1.19 19dec2003

Here is its output when I set method to get:
HTTP_ENV_VARS:
/usr/local/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin
/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib
mini_httpd/1.19 19dec2003

Opera/7.54u1 (Windows NT 5.1; U) [en]
192.168.1.104:8000
Basically, _POST/_GET/_REQUEST never exist, and it seems the only way I can
get the data is with GET and parsing the HTTP_ENV_VARS.
I've also tried with different browsers. What's going on? Any help would be
tremendously appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It really wasn't so clear what you were looking for. It is to you, but not necessarily to the reader. Richard gave you some good feedback. You may not like what he said but the sarcastic rejoinders aren't going to get you much help, which presumably is what you came looking for. On the response you've gotten ... You are asking questions to support a business that a lot of people don't like and don't want to have anything to do with because they think it's immoral. Frankly it's not especially different from someone asking if they can get some help with a Ku Klux Klan or John Birch Society web site. I wouldn't even consider being helpful with such a project, or with yours. You can say all those who disagree with what you're doing are religious fanatics or lacking in manhood, as you did with the person who posted the rant. But you'd be pretty far wrong. Do you expect to just get help because it's a business with an interesting programming problem even though a lot of people find the product morally objectionable? If so you are not paying attention to how most people operate. People tend to not only refuse to help with things they find immoral, but to (surprise!) speak up about them. This is a good thing even if it is inconvenient for those like you who are the recipients.

That won't work because I'm setting a default value for $this and want
it to change only if it has to. The long winded way to write this would
be:
?php
$myVariable = default;
if($somethingElse == a value)
{
$myVariable = new value;
}
else
{
// don't do anything
}
?
Chris.
so this one still applies:

or
$this = ($something) ? $that: null; // if $this does not exist and your happy
to use is_null()
to put it simply, use:
$this = ($something ? $that : $this)
it does have the else part of the ternary operator, but it's the closest.
it assumes that 'this' has a value it already should have and unless
the condition 'something' is true, the value remains the same (or
remains null/not set). in which case...

Actually that gives a synax error. But I've figured it out based on your
suggestion.
It's actually:
?php
$something $this = $that;
?
this seems to do the trick as per Like ternary but without the else.
for those who want to know, u can even use:
$a print this only prints if 'a' is non false
but not echo since it doesn't return a value.
?php
$b = 2;
$a = !true;
$a $b = 5;
$a print $a, $b (boolean-in-a-line worked)br\n;
echo $a, $b :: echo line;
?
u get either:
1, 5 (boolean-in-a-line worked)
1, 5 :: echo line
- OR -
, 2 :: echo line
depending on combos with $a = true or $a = !true.
true prints as 1.
so u've found ur answer.

[PHP] problem with mail() and attachment
Hi,
I'm using the script below to send ascii files attached to mails via mail().
I'm running the script on different servers and it works fine. Now I got a
problem on windows server 2003. The attachment of the mail is disturbed, the
first 76 characters are missing, the rest of the attachment is correct. When
I looked at the mail headers of the mail I recieved I recognized that there
were some lines missing. Also the first line of the attachment part in the
header is mssing. As I use chunk_split without the chunklen paramter the
lines are all 76 characters long. So it just looks like that the server
ommits lines in the header. I marked the missing lines in the script with
comments. Has anybody got an idea where the problem could be?
Thank in advance
