except that it doesn't say WHERE in the source.  I can't find it.  #if 0 
&& shows up about a million times.  anyone got any advice?  I swear i'm 
not crazy.



The -internals list will know the source code.. or send that guy an 
email and ask him where he had to change it.

Stupid question - you're using php5 right? It should already be there:

http://php.net/proc_open

PHP 5 introduces pty support for systems with Unix98 ptys.

[PHP] calling php script from C - pclose problem

[Ysidro]

Hello,

Calling a php script from legacy c code using popen(), works great.
Problem: when php script is done, pclose() in c code fails with ECHILD, 
No child process, wait4() failed.


This is because the php script does not hang around to be wait'ed for; 
any idea how to make a command line php script behave like a normal 
child process that waits for its parent to get a status via a wait 
system call?

Take a look at the header() function.

To redirect you can use:  header("Location: http://www.example.com/";);

[PHP] suse php apache2 sessions problem

[Paul Nowosielski]

Dear All,

I'm setting up a development server (SuSe 9.1 x86_64, apache2, php 4)and
I'm having a weird issue with php 4 not recognizing the start_session
function.

I've loaded the module with the php.ini file:
extension=session.so

I've installed the rpm for php sessions and frankly I'm dumbfounded as
to why my phpinfo() is still not even listing sessions as a modules??!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA!

After processing a form and sending the data via email, I need to

I prefer this but, the client wants me to redirect to another page. All

You can compare each character against the "standard character set" by 
means of regular expressions.

Well any kind of character that could break the the site and the SQL

rather how to remedy the situation once these characters have been entered.

The data between  and  is, in HTML documents, CDATA, so
HTML entities are not decoded. You either have to encode the document using
a character encoding which supports the characters you want (such as
UTF-8), configure your server to emit a suitable HTTP header, and use
literal versions of those characters or represent those characters as
\u (where  is the Unicode character specified by four hexadecimal
digits), or \XXX (three octal digits representing the Latin-1 character),
or \xXX (two hexadecimal digits representing the Latin-1 character).

Re: [PHP] php, sessions and ie

[Wolf]

I used to use a database table which housed their information, and their
cookie housed their sessionID that the server assigned them when they
logged in.  Grabbing the sessionID only from the cookie (and their IP) I
was able to log most people in (even "dynamic" IPs don't change THAT
often).  For those whom were dealing with a changed IP, the system had
them verify just their password.  Wrong password dumped them back out
and asked for full login information.  no browser issues at the time.

Re: [PHP] help with some logic.

[Dallas Cahker]

Okay I'll look at that.

What about switching to setting the password in md5 format in the cookie
rather then a regular id.  I might not call the cookie password but to me in
thinking about it seems like the same thing as setting a random id and then
saving the random id in the db.

Re: [PHP] help with some logic.

[Dan McCullough]

hey Dallas,

have you thought about breaking this up and making two seperate
functions one the checks the cookie and one that checks the session
information?  I'm not sure if that is what you were looking for as far
as an answer but it might be a good start.

[PHP] help with some logic.

[Dallas Cahker]

I've been looking at this code for a few hours now and I get the nagging
feeling that I am overcomplicating something, something I never ever do.  I
have a login that puts some information on the session, and if the customer
wants they can ask to be remembered, the cookie is given the customers user
name and another cookie stores a unique id, similar to a password I could do
the password in a cookie as its md5 encrypted, but I went with an a unique
id which is store in the user db.

Anyway here is what I am trying to do with the code below.  The authorized
user section requires 4 pieces of information, userid, password, username
and user level, a person who logs in each time gets that information
assigned to their session, that part works *knock on wood* perfectly.  When
a customer says "remember me" they go away and come back a while later they
are remembered, so that part works perfectly, however I need to get the
persons information and put that on the session, however I would like the
function to behave in such a way as to not overwrite the information each
time the page load.  So for example the cookie is read the information is
valid, the query to the db, the information set to the session.  You might
wonder why I dont set the userlevel to the cookie, well I dont want someone
changing the value of a cookie and getting admin access, which reminds me I
should add that as a check.
Thats about it.  getCookieInfo() the function inside the checkLogin function
just looks up the information for the cookie in the db.  I know that someone
is going to say something really simple that I am going to slap my forehead
over, I would like to thank that person before hand.

function checkLogin () {
 /* Check if user has been remembered */
 if (isset($_COOKIE['cookname']) && isset($_COOKIE['cookid'])) {
  if (!isset($_SESSION['name']) && !isset($_SESSION['id']) &&
!isset($_SESSION['level']) && !isset($_SESSION['password'])) {
   $cookieInfo=getCookieInfo($_COOKIE['cookname'], $_COOKIE['cookid']);
   if ($cookieInfo==0) {
return 0;
   }
   if ($cookieInfo==1) {
setcookie("cookname", "", time()-60*60*24*100, "/");
   setcookie("cookid", "", time()-60*60*24*100, "/");
return 1;
   }
   if ($cookieInfo==2) {
setcookie("cookname", "", time()-60*60*24*100, "/");
   setcookie("cookid", "", time()-60*60*24*100, "/");
return 2;
   }
  }
 }

 if (isset($_SESSION['name']) && isset($_SESSION['id']) &&
isset($_SESSION['level']) && isset($_SESSION['password'])) {
  if (loginUser($_SESSION['username'], $_SESSION['password'],'') != 1) {
   unset($_SESSION['name']);
   unset($_SESSION['id']);
   unset($_SESSION['level']);
   unset($_SESSION['password']);
   $_SESSION = array(); // reset session array
  session_destroy();   // destroy session.
   // incorrect information, user not logged in
   return 0;
  }
  // information valid, user okay
  return 1;
 } else {

Hmmm... Are you sure it is not a matter of your fonts being incapable of

Can you try with these : http://sourceforge.net/projects/font-tool

In our framework, we use a few methods, depending on what needs to be
done in what way...

If you look at our wiki module, we use AJAX to check for valid PageNames
when using SmashWordsTogether. In our other forms we use a form
validation object that checks for numeric, alphanumeric, textonly etc on
form submission.

It sounds as though the AJAX route is more what you are looking for. If
you would like some help let me know, or ask on our developers list.

You can check it out at any one of our sites. Try registering and adding
a page to the wiki at http://fsiu.uwc.ac.za/ for an example of the AJAX
validation

[PHP] test for illegal characters and consequences

[Angelo Zanetti]

Hi guys.

Ive developed a site and now I've come to the stage where I need to test each 
textfield on each form for illegal characters that have been inputted.
I would like to know from some of you how you go about it?

Do you use a regular expression and test each textfield sequencially, also what do you do when you find illegal characters? do you strip them out of the inputted information or do you post an error 
message and tell them that there are illegal characters?


I have many pages and many textfields so I would like to use the best and most 
appropriate and time effective approach by taking in your suggestions before 
doing the testing and counter measure.

Thanks in advance

Hi Rosen,

either use ISO-8859-7 for the encoding or UTF-8. If you use ISO-8859-7 your 
site will not need any modifications (either than replacing the "&tau, ...,

[PHP] FQDN of the server thru CLI

[Venkat Venkataraju]

Hi All

I'm writing a bunch of cron scripts that send reports periodically using 
phpmailer.


I'm having a hard time trying to find the FQDN of the server. I need 
that information to construct the from address for the emails.


The $_ENV['HOSTNAME'] works only if the script is executed manually. the 
cron does not pass the HOSTNAME env variable to the scripts.


When executed from the CLI, the $_SERVER['HOSTNAME'] does not have the 
fqdn, but just the hostname part of the FQDN.


Unless i hard code the corntab file with
HOSTNAME=fqdn

i do not want to hardcode the hostname anywhere as these script will be 
copied onto many servers. is there a way i can find the fully qualified 
domain name thru PHP?

Re: [PHP] Looping information into a table

[Georgi Ivanov]

A little OT but i think it is important :
I really would not write this code like this .
You are making too many queries to the database . If u have 100 rows in first 
table and 200 rows returned from  second query , you make 100*200 queries to 
the database !

Great - thanks Chris - that's the answer I've been looking for!

Tom is correct, you're overwriting $banner each time.  While the
following is a bit verbose (Tom's assignment step is all you need),
this might help to show what's happening:

[code]
$banner_array = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
 $banner_array[] = array(
   "url" => $row["url"],
   "image" => $row["image"],
   "display_type" => $row["display_type"]
   );

}
[/code]

> echo $banner[$value]["display_type"]. "";
>  }

Here you're also not incrementing your loop counter.  Try this:

[code]
foreach($banner_array as $banner)
{
 echo $banner["url"] . "";
 echo $banner["image"] . "";
 echo $banner["display_type"] . "";
}
[/code]
