I'm having a major problem with what seems, on it's face, to be a

What happens is on the browser end, I've written some javascript code
that packages up javascript variables in native PHP format and sends
the packed variables to a PHP script on the server via a POST and
XMLHTTP. On the server end, the PHP script grabs the packed variables
out of the $_POST, strips slashes and uses the unserialize command.
Here's the function that gets the post data
$unpacked_data= GetDataFromPOST();
And here's a var_dump of $unpacked_data as it appears in the browser
array(1) { [handler]= array(1) { [0]= string(9)
databases } }
I'm able to get the handler with no problem like so:
$parts= $unpacked_data['handler'];
Which yields the following var_dump
array(1) { [0]= string(9) databases }
I did the following as a test:
?php
$unpacked_data = array
(
'handler' = array
(
'0' = 'databases',
),
);
?
var_dump( $unpacked_data );
and I did...
?php
$unpacked_data = array
(
'handler' = array
(
0 = 'databases',
),
);
var_dump( $unpacked_data );
?
I also tried:
?php
$unpacked_data = array
(
'handler' = array
(
'0' = 'databases',
),
);
var_dump( $unpacked_data );
?
But no matter what I did I could NOT get var_dump to dump my 0 key for
the 'databases' as you have in your output. So methinks therein may lie
your problem. Perhaps during the serialization in javascript check if
the key is an integer-like string and if so then convert to an integer
for the key serialization.
Let us know if it works :)
Cheers,
Rob.

4096 is the number of bytes fgets() will get, but the fgets()
call is inside a while loop which keeps running until the 'filepointer'
(as denoted by the handle $dataFile) in question has reached the end of the
given file. so if 4096 is not big enough the loop merely grabs another 4096
bytes until its grabbed it all.
so actually you have a handy bit of code which will allow you to 'eat' through
massive files without the requirement of being able to store the
whole file in memory.
Is there a way to detect the filesize and insert a value for 4096?
filesize()
$buffer = fgets($dataFile, $filesize);
Is this what it is for?

[PHP] zipped files
Hi does any one have code/examples for unzipping a file thats been uploaded to a server.

[PHP] Re: fopen
Hi,
yes, there could be some problem with your code. But it depends on what
are you trying to archieve.
If you are trying to put whole file to database, there is no reason to
use fgets function. Just use $buffer=file_get_contents($filename); and
put the buffer into SQL. No reason to read it line by line using fgets.
The whole file will end in memory in the SQL section, so it doesn't
matter ho you read it.
If you want to process huge file line by line, it's really good idea to
not put whole file to memory (using file_get_contents) but to read it
line by line using fgets, process every line and forgot it. The file
could be very large and you still need only very small memory amount.
And there can be problem you are saying.
What if there is some line longer than 4096 bytes (or some bigger
limit)?? You can solve it simply using code like this:
$dataFile = fopen( $filename, r ) ;
$buffer = ;
while (!feof($dataFile)) {
$buffer .= fgets($dataFile, 4096);
if (strstr($buffer, \n) === false !feof($dataFile)) {
// long line
continue;
}
echo $buffer;
$buffer = ;
}

[PHP] Perl style
Hi guys
I would like to convert this ..
$tmparray = split(',', $csvstring);
$element5 = $tmparray[5];
. to something like this:
$element5 = (split(',', $csvstring))[5];
. but I just can't find the correct syntax. It is Perl style - i know, but I
just love this syntax. :-)
Does anyonw know the correct syntax?

RE: [PHP] GUID or any other unique IDs
Hello Ben, While not ideal, you could do a select on a db. MS SQL and MySQL both have functions to generate unique id's and I imagine the other databases do as well. While running a SELECT uuid() and hitting the database for each one of these things is annoying, it is one possible pseudo-solution. Finally I have come to the same solution since the generated UUIDs/GUIDs are intended to be saved into a DB after performing some actions. I was also suggested to use a PECL extension for this but I have no idea how to make it work under Win32 (since it uses *nix's libuuid). Many thanks to all contributors!

The syntax is correct in your first example, AFAIK the PERL syntax you
describe cannot be done straight up in PHP unless you write a function to
handle it. You could always write a PHP extension.

don't use split() here - there is no need for regexp.
use explode() instead.

$element5 = (split(',', $csvstring))[5];
$csvstring = 1,2,3,4,5,6;

Simpler(?) approach:
$element5 = current(array_splice(split(',',$csvstring),5,1));
This is fun!

[PHP] MySql connection error on win XP for script that works on Freebsd 5.3
I have just installed MySql on Win XP and am attempting to run a php script to create some databases. The script works fine on FreeBSD 5.3 running mysql-client-5.0.11 and mysql-server-5.0.11. MySQL has been installed on windows XP using a download of mysql-5.0.13-rc-win32.zip. Test.php reports php version 4.3.1.0 and is installed with ZendStudio which I am currently testing on win XP as I cannot yet get any version of Zend later than 3.x to run on FreeBSD. The username for mysql is 10 chars with a password of 8 chars and is able to login successfully from the command line. However when attempting to login via the script I get the following error: Error while connecting to MySQL: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client. I have searched the mysql website and located an article which shows reference to this error indicating that the client may need to be upgraded but as I am using the mysql-5.0.13-rc-win32.zip package I am cautious about assuming that that is the actual cause. I am curious whether it is something to do with the php version. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Re: [PHP] Decompress a zlib'd string in PHP
Just to show I am not a total leech, I did consult the manual before I posted the question :) The compressor in the file data says: dcomzlib I tried the below with gzinflate and with gzuncompress. Both give errors: gzinflate(): data error gzuncompress(): data error The below is the copy/pasted hex of the compressed movie header in the Quicktime Movie File FYI ,I did not compress the string myself...it is compressed automatically when a Quicktime movie is exported. $compressed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string = pack(H*, $compressed); $uncompressed = gzinflate($string); //$uncompressed = gzuncompress($string); echo $uncompressed; ?

Re: [PHP] regex and global vars problem
Um I did actually, but I will re-interate the problem with more detail.
the vars $mac1, $mac2, $mac3 are to get passed to the chk_mac()
function which determines if it is a valid hex representation of a h/w
address, if it does not meet the criteria of having a : separating
every two characters it then passes the var to the fix_mac() function
which attempts to fix the string or h/w address by either replacing any
- with a : or to break the h/w address up and insert a : every two
characters. I also believe this is the one you should be playing with
as the last post I added a new regex which wasn't working.
Any help is appreciated.

Re: [PHP] regex and global vars problem
The code I just showed you is supposed to do the following, the chk_mac() returns a true or false on the vars $mac1, $mac2 and $mac3. $mac3 is the only var that should not be thrown into the fix_mac() function which is working correctly. The problem is when $mac1 and $mac2 get put into the fix_mac() function nothing is being returned. I am not recieving any error codes, just an empty var. Sample output: 00aa11bb22cc converted to 00-aa-11-bb-22-cc converted to 00:aa:11:bb:22:cc is valid. As you can see $mac3 is a valid example of a h/w address where $mac1 $mac2 were returned from the fix_mac() function as an empty string.

OK, thanks for that. I've rewritten your function below in much cleaner
code. Some of the situations you've used regexps in, string functions
would work fine. They're also much faster.
The below function works fine in my testing. I removed the special-case
for a valid MAC address at the start since your regexp was throwing
errors and there was no need since you already checked if it was valid
with chk_mac() (which by the way should return true or false, not 1 or
0, but meh).
?php
function fix_mac( $mac ) {
if( eregi(
^[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .

) ) {
$mac_final = str_replace( '-', ':', $mac );

$mac_array = str_split( $mac, 2 );
$mac_final = implode( ':', $mac_array );

return false;

It appears that in QuickTime movie API, all sprite variables/

So I need to:
find the string

change its value = password=new_password
recompress the new value
write the zlib'd string back to the file
I'm sure if I can decompress the string, then it will not be

I'm sure if you spent 5 seconds searching the manual you would

'the rest' involves find your substring's beginning and ending

using those values to 'splice' the new substring (aka password)

I can visualize how ot do it but have never actually needed to
do something like
that ... I would say the compress/decompress is the easier part

would work fine. They're also much faster.
The below function works fine in my testing. I removed the special-case
for a valid MAC address at the start since your regexp was throwing
errors and there was no need since you already checked if it was valid
with chk_mac() (which by the way should return true or false, not 1 or
0, but meh).
?php
function fix_mac( $mac ) {
if( eregi(
^[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}\- .
[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}$,
this string concatenation looks a bit naff.
although on second thoughts I can see why you did it this way.
down to personal choice :-).
the use of double quotes means strictly speaking
you should be escaping the backslash and dollar sign (and the
parentheseses?) although i would recommend single quotes.
I would have used preg_match(), something like
(I'm using double quotes because of the php -r '' btw :-):
php -r '
$d = ([0-9A-Fa-f]{2});
$q = {$d}[\\-:]?;
$re = #^{$q}{$q}{$q}{$q}{$q}{$d}\$#;
foreach(array(900030ABAB0C,
90-00-30-AB-AB-0C,
90:00:30:AB:AB:0C,
90-00-30:AB:AB-0C,
90:JJ:30:AB:AB-0C) as $str) {
$matches = array();
if (preg_match($re, $str, $matches)) {
$mac = join(:, array_slice($matches, 1));
echo good mac: $mac\n;
} else {
echo bad mac: $str\n;
}
}
// and as a function:
function getMAC($str)
{
static $re;
if (!isset($re)) {
$d = ([0-9A-Fa-f]{2}); $q = {$d}[\\-:]?;
$re = #^{$q}{$q}{$q}{$q}{$q}{$d}\$#;
}
return (preg_match($re, $str, $matches)) ? join(:, array_slice($matches,
1)) : null;
}
foreach(array(900030ABAB0C,
90-00-30-AB-AB-0C,
90:00:30:AB:AB:0C,
90-00-30:AB:AB-0C,
90:JJ:30:AB:AB-0C) as $str) {
if ($mac = getMAC($str)) {
echo good mac: $mac\n;
} else {
echo bad mac: $str\n;
}
}
'
$mac
) ) {
$mac_final = str_replace( '-', ':', $mac );
} else if( eregi( ^[0-9A-Fa-f]{12}$, $mac ) ) {
$mac_array = str_split( $mac, 2 );
$mac_final = implode( ':', $mac_array );
} else {
return false;
}
echo MAC: $mac_final;
return $mac_final;
white space is nice but too many blank lines lead to overscroll ;-)
}

[PHP] Windows XP installation confusion.
Hi In Install.text for php 5.0.5 on Page 3: Heading Manual Installation Steps Previous editions of the manual suggest moving various ini and DLL files into your SYSTEM folder..we advise remove all these files (like php.ini and PHP related DLLs from the Windows System folder... While some files in the Windows folder are clearly php related in that they are of the form php*.* other files are not so easily distinguished. I wonder if someone has a list of the files that should be deleted bearing in mind I have just removed an installation of php 4.3.10 and php 5.0.5. I would like to make sure that the windows system32 folder is clean! It would be nice if such a list was added to install.txt thanks david -- 40 yrs navigating and computing in blue waters.

Re: [PHP] Decompress a zlib'd string in PHP
Hi Richard :)
Looks like all he did was change a couple of atoms names...BEFORE
the compressed movie header stuff :(
All in all is all pretty basic stuff.
I am more interested in what comes AFTER dcomzlib.
Quicktime automatically decompressed the movie header when it plays a
file, so there has to be way to decompress it?
As far as legality, I am hacking my own files :)
Ultimately, I want to write a password variable into the Quicktime file
My hope is that all movie variables are also compressed with
dcomzlib...as they are no where to be found by looking at the hex :(
If I can find the variables, then I can rewrite them :)
I know several members of the Quicktime Engineering team, and no one
has made a peep.
But, they will not tell me the answer either ;)
Maybe they are waiting to sue me the moment I figure it out ;)
Here is a 'test' movie I created:
These two examples are the SAME file...One has a compressed movie
header. The other is uncompressed
So...one has dcomzlib, and one is not

Hi,
On the MPlayer samples FTP, there is an example of a MOV file that
is presumably protected in:
ftp://ftp.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/samples/MOV/protected_mov/
Has anyone looked closely at the file? I was trying to figure out
what was
protected about it. The first 32 bytes are:
00 00 22 B6 68 24 2E 6D 00 00 22 AE 62 30 72 29 ...h$.m...b0r)
00 00 00 0C 64 63 6F 6D 7A 6C 69 62 00 00 22 9A dcomzlib...
The dcomzlib tag looks familiar. I had a hunch and changed a few
of the
bytes to:
00 00 22 B6 6D 6F 6F 76 00 00 22 AE 63 6D 6F 76 ...moov...cmov
00 00 00 0C 64 63 6F 6D 7A 6C 69 62 00 00 22 9A dcomzlib...
And then I was able to parse the file with a custom QT parser I
assembled:
