Re: [PHP] libcurl (cookies across cURL session). . .?

[Michael Williams]

Robert,

Thanks.  The thing is that lots of cookies are set regularly.  Are  
you suggesting that every time I receive a "Set-Cookie:" to  1)parse  
that line out 2)append it to a file 3) retrieve it when necessary?   
I'm not terribly familiar with the proper format for a cookie, but  
I'll look into it.  I'd appreciate *any* insights you have.


Regards,
Mike

You should be able to retrieve the cookies from the response headers.
Then you just need to resend them. There may be an option for cURL  
to do

this automatically. Search for cookie at the following link (check the

Re: [PHP] File Upload Security and chmod

[Andy Hultgren]

For whatever reason when I ftp in using WinFtp I don't see public_html
(it's hidden, don't know why; if I make a directory called
".public_html" it gets created and then disappears), but I can see my
file structure from my host's website and so I know that when I ftp in
to myDomain.com this is what is "there":

index.htm
page1.htm
page2.htm
.public_html/
images/
etc. etc.

Currently nothing is stored in my .public_html directory since it is
not my root (and my website loads just fine when browsed to).

I don't ftp in from DreamWeaver and it isn't an issue of going
straight to public_html just to skip the cd step.  public_html just
isn't set up as my root directory and I have no directories accessable
that are higher than my root.

So, since I have no access to directories outside of my root, do you
really think I should change that before allowing file uploads?
(either by changing servers or just bugging my server adminstrator
until he changes it).  I currently check extension type and then image
type using get_image_size(); and also files with image extensions are
not executable on the server.  However, from what I've read I
understand that those steps are the minimum in terms of file upload
security.

Also, I'd be curious still to hear why I can browse to a file in a
directory that has been set with chmod 0100.  I really didn't expect
that.

Thanks again very much for your thoughts,

Andy

If you do "cd public_html" then you actually HAVE space outside your

do "cd public_html" and you'll have an uploads dir outside the webtree

NOTE:

I would like to have one point clarified:

E.g. for an input of '2' do you expect '2' or '3' as the answer?

You really need to specify PHP version and platform and all that,

[PHP] how to get server response with ftp extension?

[Robin Kunde]

is there a reason why php's built-in ftp extension does not have a 
function that returns the last message the ftp server sent? for example, 
it would be nice to know whether i can't create a directory because it 
already exists or because i don't have permission. am i missing 
something obvious here?

Yes, exactly.  I was flipping through a PHP5 book (possibly a magazine, but

If so, then your example should work (syntax aside). Here's another
'test' example that I just whipped up and tested that shows you can
use any method name you wish.

thing = $val;
 }


 function getThing() {
   return $this->thing;
 }

}

$t = new test;

// Show that thing is empty
print $t->getThing() . "\n";

// Set thing to 'Thing'
$t->setThing('Thing');

// show that thing contains 'Thing'
print $t->getThing() . "\n";
?>


If I'm still on the wrong path I apologize. I probably shouldn't be
trying to provide advice on cold medicine ;-)

Re: [PHP] Help converting C to PHP

That aside, I think that it would be very beneficial to the community as a
whole if a contest was started that encouraged readability and good
practices.

The scoring and judging could be done by a panel, but I think that it
would be more fun if the community itself was able to vote on various
attributes; readability, efficiency, general approach, originality, etc.
Allow people to comment on each entry. I don't know about the winner
getting anything besides bragging rights, but it if gets large enough
maybe there can be a few corporate sponsors giving away licenses or
something. Who knows?



Fair enough.
Prime Number Script Competition ( for Bragging Rights ).

I challenge the readers of this list to produce the necessary code to find
the lowest prime number higher than a certain inputted number.

The script must be web based, and ask the user to enter a number. The script
must then calculate the lowest Prime Number above that number.

Scripts will be rated on Functional Accuracy ( the program must correctly
perform its required function ), Code Maintainability(eg Presence of
Comments, etc ), Ease of Use, and Code Efficiency, in that order. Brownie
points may be earned through use interesting or original ideas or
methodologies, provided they do not compromise the previous four criteria.

The submitted script will be rated by volunteers from this list. Submitting
an entry disqualifys you as a volunteer judge, whilst judging someone elses
code disqualifys you as a candidate. Deadline for submissions is 12:00
(Noon) (CEST UTC + 2 Hours) on Friday 29 September.

Interesting to see (a) if anyone enters, and (b) what the code will be like.




I think it would be a lot of fun if well executed.

Re: [PHP] symlink

> Can someone explain how and why you would use a symlink in php?

A symlink is the Un*x version of a Windows "shortcut" or the Mac's
"alias"

The difference being that a symlink actually *works* and a Windows
"shortcut" is useless for anything except their crappy desktop app...

As far as usefulness goes, it's pretty wide-open, and not at all tied
into PHP, per se, in a general sense...

I mean, any time you've got some long complicated
/path/to/somewhere/deep/in/your/system and you want to get there with
out typing all that you can do:
ln -s /path/to/somewhere/deep/in/your/system short
Now you can just use 'short' instead of all that other stuff.
[Assuming you start in the same dir where 'short' lives.]

There is *ONE* thing I've been doing that's very PHP specific that I
think is useful for a symlink...


cd public_html
ln -s . edit


Now, in the PHP code, I do like this:


   


What's the point, you ask?

Well, *NOW* instead of having an ugly non-intuitive layout for the CMS
for the site owner, they see the SAME layout, with everyting in the
SAME place, except they have INPUT boxes instead of just text.

This makes it MUCH more intuitive for them to edit their site, as they
just surf to /edit/ and then navigate to what they want to edit, the
same as it is on their site.

The whole thing looks exactly the same, except that they have bits
they can edit, that everybody else just sees as text.

I don't have duplicate code for layout for the site and the edit site,
so I've got very high code re-use, and don't have to make parallel
changes.

Combine this with some nice CSS and a clean layout, and it gets very
very nice.

It drastically cuts down (like, to zero) the confusion over how to
change what in the site -- and they never have to contact me to ask
how to change this or that, or what this little bit here over in
"admin" actually does.  They *see* what it does, because they see it
just like it is in their public site.

are you trying to find a specific 'bob' example or would you just like

I seem to recall some kinda note in php.net about IIS brokenness in

Maybe in "curl"?

I think you need the PDI functions for that, at least in PDFlib, and
that costs money, I believe...

There may be other solutions.

Generating the whole PDF is one.

FDF, where you layer a FORM over a PDF is another solution for some
needs.

Re: [PHP] File Upload Security and chmod

[Andy Hultgren]

So pretty much there's nothing to be done about it?  If I can get the
chmod thing to make it so that you can't surf to your uploaded image
afterwards and view it, I'd be happy with that solution.  I'd like to
stick with this host if I could.

Re: [PHP] PHP5 object construct

[Chris Boget]

I read about a feature of PHP5 OOP that is something like this in a book 
or

a magazine a while back.  But now I don't remember exactly how this works
and I can't find any reference to it in the online docs.  The basic idea 
is

something along these lines:

class MyClass {

  private $bob;
  public $Bob {
set( $var ) {
  $this->bob = $var;

}
get() {
  return $this->bob;

}
  }
}

Could someone point me to the relevant section of the docs that discusses
this?



http://us2.php.net/class


Any particular place on that page I should be looking?  I've read it several 
times and didn't see anything like the above.  The closest thing I saw were 
actual methods called setBob() and getBob(), which isn't exactly what I'm 
looking for...

You can do this in .htaccess under Apache, or with ini_set (which
would have to be in 

But you SHOULD NOT DO THIS

Nobody else on the planet is using <% for PHP, and it's unlikely to be
all that useful to you.

Re: [PHP] stripping with an OB callback [SOLVED]

Thanks for the follow-up Richard.  I am now bracketing my Fusebox core
includes with ob_start("ob_gzhandler") and ob_end_flush().  It's done
wonders for those large query results.  And since there is absolutely
nothing in this app that relies on multiple contiguous whitespace
characters, I'm good to go.

That's one possible use.

Really, though, once your CSS is dynamic as well as your HTML, life
can be quite fun. :-)

Or, perhaps, if your so-called web Designer left NO CONSISTENT SPACE
on the layout for ERROR MESSAGES in a dynamic site, you might, just as
a hypothetical example, have something like:



Then, in the .css file, you'd be using $error_position to cram the
messages into an overflow: auto; at the $error_position, unique to
each page, where the so-called designer left you any white space at
all.

Not that this ever happened to me, oh no.

http://ralphsworld.com/

:-)

PS I embedded the CSS, actually, as I don't trust browser caching to
"know" that the CSS is also dynamic and changing.

Add a header("Content-type: text/css") to the top of it, so that the
web-server isn't LYING to Mozilla and telling it that you're sending
it an HTML file?

Only IE would be STOOPID and look at the URL and the file contents and
decide to ignore the headers.

text/css may not be right.  Whatever.

Here's where you MIGHT get bit in the butt:
  1. Anything in a PRE tag is gonna suck big-time
  2. Any kind of DATA from your db with multiple spaces will lose data

Now, you might maybe be able to fix these by religiously always doing
$output = str_replace(' ', ' ', $output);
on the DATA from the DB, or any kind of PRE tags stuff you use.

Or maybe in YOUR application, neither of these matters.

Test it with JUST the output buffer and without the whitespace crunch
-- You may find that the ob is the big win, especially if you have a
zillion echo statements going on.

Port the FreePascal to C first? :-)

I dunno... I mean, maybe there's some fancy FreePascal->C bridge
thingie to make it all work...

Can you include a bunch of C header files and make them work?

Cuz there's a TON of stuff in PHP C header files of macros and whatnot
that make it easy to write an extension.

Working without those or rolling those all over again in FreePascal
would be a nightmare, I suspect...

I just gave a talk at the Chicago PHP User Group "Extension Writing
for Dummies" based on my experience with: http://l-i-e.com/perror

I really think you'll have an eaiser time porting the FreePascal to C
than trying to marry C and FreePascal, but I'm no expert.

If you are comfy installing from source, visit each site and download
the version marked "latest stable release"

MAYBE for Apache stick with 1.x as there's not much point to 2.x with
PHP as you're stuck with pre-fork mode which means you might as well
just use 1.x as I understand it, or probably mis-understand it...

If you are not comfy with source, then whatever the distro is touting

For the sanitization...

.*? could be something more like:  [#a-z0-9A-Z]+

The # assumes you want to allow #ff style colors.

Since this whitelists the specific characters you allow, it's probably
better than the strip_tags thing.

I don't quite understand why you cannot save to another catalog.
is  www.myDomain.com yer actual directory name of merely the domain?
If either, login to yer domain and simply go either one step up, is that 
possible? 
You can also make use of a .htaccess file inside a sub directory to keep 
others from it till you have checked the file, then move it out in the open 
or delete after specifications.

Do you have access to /tmp ? That one is possible to use, in fact any system 
wide directory writable by any/you is usable.

[PHP] File Upload Security and chmod

[Andy Hultgren]

Hi,
I am relatively new to php and am trying to set up a file upload
process for my website.  I have read through the php security
documentation and a number of the security-related questions on these
lists and am attempting to implement as many of the measures as
possible.
One of the suggestions I have read is to have the uploaded files saved
somewhere outside of your root directory.  Unfortunately I cannot do
that as my root directory is simply www.myDomain.com and not
".public_html/" and I am on a shared server where my root cannot be
changed (I have already asked).  So, I am trying to keep the
permissions on my "saved_files" folder as tight as possible except
when the actual upload occurs.  I this as follows:

1) The actual file upload comes through Flash8, and when the user
uploads a file it is sent to
www.domain.com/flash8directory/upload.php, which is in the same
directory as the Flash8 upload application.
2) upload.php first chmod 0740 the "saved_files" folder (which is
located at www.domain.com/flash8directory/saved_files/).  Then it does
security checks to make sure an appropriate image has been uploaded,
and if everything looks good it moves the uploaded file to
"saved_files".
3) The Flash8 upload application is notified of the completion of the
upload and downloads the new image it its viewer.
4) Once the download is complete and Flash8 no longer needs to work
with the file, the Flash8 application notifies a separate php script
by sending the variable "complete=1" to lockdown.php (located at
www.domain.com/flash8directory/lockdown.php), which runs the following
simple script:



This script works and "saved_files" is set to chmod 0100, but here is
the problem.  If I then navigate directly to the url of the uploaded
file by entering its path in my
browser(www.domain.com/flash8directory/saved_files/uploadedFile.jpg),
the uploaded file appears in my browser!  However, if I then refresh
the browser I get the desired error message saying I do not have
permission to access that file.  Also, other browser windows never
have access to view the uploaded file, only the browser from which the
file was uploaded.

Any thoughts on why I can view the uploaded file even though it has
been set to chmod 0100?  I'd really rather not have those files
accessible to anyone, as an extra security layer.

Thank you for your help!

The value of these games is that they give you interesting problems to
solve without forcing you to maintain the code. That's the entire point.
It's exactly the sort of thing that's fun to write when you have to make
a living from your code the rest of the time. If you want to write
quality software in your free time then you start/join an FOSS project
and put the code to good use.

Nobody is claiming that this is a good way to write code or a good way
to learn PHP, it's just for fun.



You're right, it's just for fun but... they could still be fun and be
useful. These kind of games could easily be used for education and training.
We all know that the quest/mob grinding factor can be very addictive, why
don't use all that energy for the good? You could still learn how to do a
good job while having fun...

[PHP] mime_content_type replacement

[PHP] Object Memory Leakage...

[Jon Anderson]

Sorry folks, this is a long one...I've re-read a bunch of the 
documentation, and I can't find a solution.


In debugging an out of memory condition, I found that PHP doesn't seem 
to garbage collect unreferenced objects. It seems to work fine for 
anything other than objects. (Arrays, strings, integers, etc.)


Here's a simple example: define a class, create 3 instances, destroy 
them in reverse order. I would expect that after each unset and/or NULL, 
the memory usage would go down, they don't. See the output below.


Note: the memory usage remains constant after the objects are allocated, 
even when they're unset/NULL'ed.


Some of the user contributed notes on the PHP documentation suggest that 
the memory is actually freed and available for use by other 
variables/objects even though memory_get_usage() says otherwise. Another 
little test seems to disprove that too... The idea here is to allocate 
close to 8 MB, then free it to show that it can allocate that data 
within the memory limit. Then allocate enough class instances and free 
them again such that the memory usage increases enough that the same 
data allocated and freed initially doesn't fit anymore. If PHP did 
indeed free the objects, the data would fit the second time too...


test = rand();
   }
}

echo "Initial Memory Usage: " . memory_get_usage() . "\n";

$mb = 6 * 1024 * 1024;
echo "Allocating 7 MB of data...";
$dat = "";
for ($x=0;$x<$mb;$x++) {
   $dat .= "x";
}
echo "Memory Usage: " . memory_get_usage() . "\n";
unset($dat,$x,$mb);
echo "Unset Usage: " . memory_get_usage() . "\n";

$num = 32767;
$objects = array();

echo "Initial Memory Usage (2): " . memory_get_usage() . "\n";
echo "Allocating $num objects...";
for ($x=0;$x<$num;$x++) {
   $objects[$x] = new Tester();
}
echo "Done. Memory Usage: " . memory_get_usage() . "\n";
echo "Freeing $num objects...";
for ($x=0;$x<$num;$x++) {
   unset($objects[$x]); $objects[$x] = NULL;
}
echo "Done. Memory Usage: " . memory_get_usage() . "\n";

$mb = 6 * 1024 * 1024;
echo "Allocating 7 MB of data...";
$dat = "";
for ($x=0;$x<$mb;$x++) {
   $dat .= "x";
}

This gives:

Initial Memory Usage: 44248
Allocating 7 MB of data...Memory Usage: 6335888
Unset Usage: 8
Initial Memory Usage (2): 44504
Allocating 32767 objects...Done. Memory Usage: 7752920
Freeing 32767 objects...Done. Memory Usage: 2807080
Allocating 7 MB of data...
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to 
allocate 1 bytes) in /home/janderson/svn/memtest.php on line 44



Am I missing something? (Is there a force_garbage_collection() function 
somewhere that I'm missing?) Any suggestions/workarounds/anything would 
be most appreciated.


Cheers,

jon

For some real trouble, try the International Obsfucated C Code Contest:
http://www.ioccc.org/

These contests like Code Golf are just for fun, I can't say that they
encourage bad practice as long as you understand what the contest is
about.

That aside, I think that it would be very beneficial to the community as a
whole if a contest was started that encouraged readability and good
practices.

The scoring and judging could be done by a panel, but I think that it
would be more fun if the community itself was able to vote on various
attributes; readability, efficiency, general approach, originality, etc.
Allow people to comment on each entry. I don't know about the winner
getting anything besides bragging rights, but it if gets large enough
maybe there can be a few corporate sponsors giving away licenses or
something. Who knows?

I think it would be a lot of fun if well executed.

I personally don't think this is a very healthy contest. It discourages
comments, and use of whitespace to make code readable.

I'd perfer a contest that rewarded code readability, and maintainability
as
well as minimal keystrokes. After all you only enter the aforementioned
keystrokes once. Perhaps one like codegolf, with an enforced coding style
(
eg KR Style, or GNU Style)



I completely agree. This kind of contests do not provide any measure of the
good qualities of a programmer working as part of a team. The objectives
ussualy end up being something of the sort: "let's see who can fit the most

[PHP] reading urlencoded data from POST

Hi.

I need to read urlencoded data from POST request. So far I have tried
$_POST['name'], but this converts each input %5C to two backslashes
(instead of one) and %00 to \0 (slash zero, not zero byte) for some
reason. Is there any other way to read the data apart from parsing
php://input myself?
Thanks in advance for any response.

[PHP] Re: web browser shows blank page when accessing *.php file

[Anna Barnes]

Hi All
This is all very weird and it may be that it isn't a php problem  
after all.


Here is line 494 in ical_parser.php
 ereg ("([^:]+):(.*)", $line

Additional information is
a) the mac that publishes the ical is always up, no probs there  
although I should check if a system update has been done recently.
b) The webserver that hosts the calendar is definitely up because all  
the other web pages work.
c) The athentication definitely works since if I put in the wrong  
username and password it comes back with an error.
d) the whole thing worked perfectly until a few days ago. I've  
managed to get it up again by restarting httpd but then it fails  
again shortly after.

e) I've made no changes to the webserver.
f) Is it possible that its trying to access too much data from the  
calendar i.e it is possible to go back 18 months and look at the  
schedule.


I'm just about to archive the existing scanner.ics file and republish  
another one to see it that works.

thanks

"ical_parser" sounds like it is a function which sucks in

I like kdesvn.  It actually uses the svn API so it isn't just a wrapper for 
the command line.

If you use SVN+SSH, and you run kdesvn from the command line, then it will ask

phpMyAdmin software to connect to MySQL database, the result is "Cannot load 
mysql extension. Please check your PHP configuration".

Conditions such as php_mysql.dll and supplying information for extension_dir 
in php.ini are supplied.

Such a connection runs successfully on Windows XP but not on Windows 2003.

Please answer me the problem on Windows 2003. Thank you!

Agreed, but our old ways remain to haunt us.

[PHP] Asking about failure of accessing mySQL database by PHP-5.1.6 on Windows 2003

[Nguyen, Phuong Anh Ho]

Hello Sir/ Madame,


I am a developer working with PHP-5.1.6-Win32 and mySQL database. Following is 
my question:

I successfully runs PHP-5.1.6-Win32 with Internet Information Services 6 (II6) 
on Windows 2003 under ISAPI mode. Then, I runs the index.php of phpMyAdmin 
software to connect to MySQL database, the result is "Cannot load mysql 
extension. Please check your PHP configuration".

Conditions such as php_mysql.dll and supplying information for extension_dir in 
php.ini are supplied.

Such a connection runs successfully on Windows XP but not on Windows 2003. 

Please answer me the problem on Windows 2003. Thank you!

The goal of the codegolf.com challenge is to print pi to 1000 places.

Hello,

This is off topic but I wanted to get the list member's opinions on the
subject as it will probably benefit someone else.

Currently I don't use version control at all. What I do instead is have
one directory that contains my development website and one directory
that contains the live website which I do not directly modify. When I
need to fix something or add a new feature I edit the development site
and copy the files that I've changed.

Sometimes I will start on a new feature before I am able to finish a
previous one. This is a major problem when the features overlap and I
have to edit the same file for both features. Even if I finish one of
the features I cannot publish the files because the other feature is not
ready yet.

What I'm looking to the list for is how I can overcome this through
version control.

What I'm thinking I'd do is create a base level (say v1.0) that I then
create a branch for every new feature and then merge those things
together. The issue I see in this case is the merging.

Is this a sound strategy or should I just realize that I can't publish
until all current features enhancements are completed?


Thanks,
Chris.



Not OT at all.

Use Subversion.
For a nice Windows interface - Tortoise. Sorry, I can't rememberthe name 
ofthe Linux interface.

Not quite sure where to go from here.


"ical_parser" sounds like it is a function which sucks in information from 
other computers. if one of those computers is down, then your program will 
probably timeout while waiting for the information.

I wish, the downloadable documentation would include all those
examples since this is, WHY the Documentation is realy great.

--

I'm not sure which examples you're referring to but if you mean the user
contributed notes then the download documentation does include this - at
least one of the .chm versions does. It's great, but you need to download it
regularly if you want the latest notes (obviously). Use one of the skins and
it's even better (I use the phpZ skin which displays a tab for the user
notes).

Cheers
Arno
