Re: [PHP] Where to insert a phrase in the right place
Hi, it seems that you set the $_SESSION['greeted'] variable and
do not unset it anywhere.
If user wants to log-in, and his credentials are OK, you then create
session and set this varaible you want. If it isn't OK, you need to
unset the variable or/and destroy the session so that the variable
won't be set to 1 any more.
Then, you need also to have some logout form/page/whatever to destroy
the session in case user wants to. And unset the variable accordingly.
Hope that helps.

It doesn't work :(

print('Welcome ' . $name);
$_SESSION['greeted'] is always equal to 1 as set in the beginning of the

Very bad solution.
Don't just tell us it's bad, explain why (even with an RTFM or URL to
look at)... nobody learns from an answer like this.
The only thing I can think of is that $_SERVER variables can be
compromised (ie you can't rely on them, they can be changed via curl or
some other method).
But that's just a guess.

On the other hand, I remember you talked about the type of that column to be char(2). Have you specified what encoding it's using? Moreover, I hope you're not using legacy encoding like Big5 or GB. Use Unicode (UTF-8) if your database is a brand new one. Unfortunately, I am still using Big5. you need a longer field to store utf-8 codes for the same big5 string right? -- .~.

I guess I should have explained a bit more about what I'm doing. first of all, this is not my site, it's for a client of mine. second, I did suggest using a paypal API or a paid site to take care of this, but my client said no. She has a credit card processing account and how she works with it right now, is that interested users email her, she calls them, gets their credit card info and charges their card manually without the card present. so, this is not really my problem, it's what she's been doing before and wants to continue doing. All she asked me to do is that as part of the form that people send their requests through, now she wants their credit card info as well. So that she doesn't have to call them. And the reason I'm keeping cc info in the session for a few steps, is to take them to confirmation page, and then the reciept page. and after wards, I want to keep it in there untill the client logs in to the admin page and sees new requests, charges them and then deletes them for ever. So now I've got two different responses, some people say do it, but use encryption/decryption methods, and some people say don't do it. But if I don't do it, that means I tell my client that I can't do it and I lose the job.

Never touch credit card numbers. You can't just take credit card numbers and manually process them in 'card not present' transactions (or MOTO in more archaic terms.) You need a merchant account that allows for this -- usually at a higher discount rate. Check the merchant agreement. Your client should get an account like this, or better yet, provide you with the instructions on how to integrate his site with the payment providers so that you never have to worry about credit cards. As an additional note... Maybe your SSL cert secures the numbers from the client to the server, and just maybe your PHP scripts have no security flaws in them, but you must remember the server itself and everything else outside of PHP. What if someone found a flaw in the FTP server for example, or the mail server even, and used that to get the CC info.

Travis Doherty -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php Did you know sessions are just plain text files sitting on the webserver in most cases? So by putting a credit card in the session it is actually just cleartext for people to read. Also if for some reason you think the benefits of this job outweigh the chances that something could go wrong and the credit cards are compromised, make sure all pages that deal with this are SSL. So on the end-user side where they send data in and on the side where your client checks them. Also make sure to have something that purges the credit cards after X amount of days or after a transaction has been processed. The company I work for deals with lots of people like this who are stuck in their ways on I already have a working system. The problem is that the liability is too high to do something on this level without serious thought into security. I think you should try to do a better job of convincing your client that a payment gateway that does a capture is the only way to go because it would change having the liability of credit cards laying around in temp files for sessions and databases.

Encryption is a mandatory part of PCI compliance... -- itoctopus - http://www.itoctopus.com Jim King [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Does encrypting credit card information really do any good? You have to store the keys somewhere to decrypt the data to use it. As we have seen with blu-ray and HD DVD movies, the keys are the weak point that are easily compromised. Besides, even encrypted data can be decrypted by brute force. The strength of the encryption only dictates how long it will take. Once you have the decryption key, the strength of the encryption means nothing. Does anyone believe that all these botnets are just for sending spam? You could use them to create a huge supercomputer for code busting. I think it is better to protect you network and passwords. Use the Visa/MC/Amex standards that the companies themselves publish.

You were talking about an OCR reader for the arrows to see what letters it is pointing to. If the arrow would be at a random location in the actual image, the arrow being not an arrow but ie. a man pointing and the arm being flexible (so even if the man himself would move around randomly, the arm would always face the right direction for the image. I like the idea of a pointing arrow, it could be quick, pretty effective (not 100% since nothing is) and easy for the user to identify.

Most can be converted easily using mb_convert_encoding or iconv but I have some emails encoded as ks_c_5601-1987, which neither of these two functions handle. Googling for ks_c_5601-1987 doesn't help. Most people just say it is an invalid charset and can be ignored as spam, but we have genuine emails that need to be stored in the DB. If I don't convert the messages, they get truncated when inserted into the database. Any ideas?

Moreover, I hope you're not using legacy encoding like Big5 or GB. Use Unicode (UTF-8) if your database is a brand new one. Unfortunately, I am still using Big5. you need a longer field to store utf-8 codes for the same big5 string right? Yes. While in Big5 every (Chinese) character is represented by two bytes, every Chinese character represented in UTF-8 uses at least three bytes (in rare occasion, 4 bytes, if very rare characters are used such as those in ancient Chinese). This is because UTF-8 is designed to be 8-bit compatible to old data-processing functions. In other words, for a string containing pure Chinese characters, a UTF-8 one is 150% longer than a Big-5 one. You could, of course, use UTF-16 as the base format for your string. In this case, every character is represented by 2 bytes, be it a Western Latin character or an Eastern CJK character. OK, yes, for rare characters, you would use up to 4 bytes, but this is rare. Anyway, you should look at the positive side of using Unicode instead of the dinosaur encoding, sorry, I mean Big5 :p Hard drives (and RAM) nowadays are getting real big, string size should be considered as a first criterion to choose what encoding to use. Unicode is done by an international consortium and it could support most languages in the world. For instance, using Big5, you can't even represent the simplest of Western European characters like in these words: español or français!! But you could represent them using Unicode. Actually, the ability to represent (Western) European characters might not interest you. But using Unicode, you could store both traditional and simplified Chinese! And this, I'm sure you're interested. You can't do that in Big5, I'm 100% sure! Still not convinced yet. Well, Unicode even contains traditional Chinese characters that Big5 doesn't support. For example, a friend on mine has this character 驊 in his first name. This character isn't supported in Big5 and in pre-Unicode period, he had to type (馬華)! Very stupid! Another example: 氹 is quite a common word in southern China but this character can't be found in Big5. So, think about using Unicode.

If you store the GMT offsets for each user at a certain time in the year, they will turn invalid when they switch from daylight savings to no savings.

You are totally right, I am sorry. I would hate to miss my plane or train due to such mistake.

You *ALSO* need the users Daylight Saving Zone as well. This has been giving us great fun since the winter dates and times need a different offset to the summer ones. Something that simplistic browser time offset does not supply. :( The point is that you don't store the time offset in any user profile or anywhere but a session variable, which you keep for the duration of the session so it lasts only while the user is connected, whether logged in or not, profile or not. Next time he/she connects you get the new offset. If the time has changed due to daylight savings or the user travelling elsewhere, you'll get a new offset. The only time it fails is if the user is connected while the time switch is happening, but so will most of the clocks, watches and whatever is on at the time. Please read what I wrote. The time offset from the browser is only of use to map CURRENT time. It is no use to display dates and times stored in the database that are reliant on the daylight saving offset. If TOMORROW is after the change in daylight saving, then the browser offset will not give you the right offset for tomorrows. The problem is convincing people that there *IS* a real problem, and trying to display the correct times JUST from a timezone offset is wrong for at least half of the year! You need to know that the time is changing tonight so that you can display tomorrows calendar correctly? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://home.lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://home.lsces.co.uk MEDW - http://home.lsces.co.uk/ModelEngineersDigitalWorkshop/ Treasurer - Firebird Foundation Inc. - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- No virus found in this incoming message.

[PHP] coding MySQL error traps [WAS: mysql if empty]
$sql = SELECT Client FROM booked WHERE Name = 'larry';
$result = mysql_query($sql) OR die('[MYSQL ERROR] -
['.mysql_errno().']br /'.mysql_error());
while ( list($client) = mysql_fetch_row($result) ) {
echo {$client}br /\n;
}
I agree with this logic overall. The above is of course just
oversimplified demo code, but I'd like to mention a few details I
would change before putting this into practice.
The syntax $result = mysql_query($sql) OR die(); is nicely compact
but obfuscates the program logic. PHP is not actually ORing two
values, it's halting execution halfway through the statement if
mysql_query() returns true. This constitutes a hack because it
depends entirely on the way the parser processes code rather than on
explicit elements of the language. To help keep legacy code from
crashing with PHP version X I'd break this into two statements: run
the query, then act on the result. The parser won't care, and your
code will be more easily readable by us humans.
Displaying mysql_error() is great for the developer but in a public
application will expose the names of tables and fields to the public
who shouldn't really see your wires and pipes.
mysql_error() doesn't usually contain the entire query and doesn't
always contain the segment of the query that actually caused the
error, so I always add the full query to the error message to save
time in debugging.
Finally, die()ing on a mysql error is pretty harsh; a friendlier
application would return the error state to parent layers, translate
the error into advice a non-technical user can deal with, and display
it in a way that doesn't crash the page.
Rather than trying to remember to go through the code later fixing
these bits, I suggest adopting a convention early on that suits both
development and publication, such as:
___
define('bDebug', true);
...
$bResult = mysql_query($sql);
if (!$bResult) return ReportSQLError('checking user name',
mysql_errno(), mysql_error(), $sql);
...
function ReportSQLError($context, $errno, $errorMsg, $sql)
{
if (bDebug)
{
die(MYSQL ERROR $errno $context:hr
/\n$errorMsghr /\n$sql);
}
else
{
return $generate_friendly_error_message;
}
}

Your buildInt() function jumps directly from PHP into HTML output,
without first closing the currently open PHP tag. It needs to be:
private function buildInt()
{
?
!--Script 10.1- calculator.php--
.. blah blah ..
?php
}
The approach you are taking for this is going to cause you headaches in
the future. I would strongly recommend that you make your class file do
one of two things:
1) ECHO out the HTML, rather than dropping in and out of PHP. It gets
real messy, real quick, especially when embedded in class files.
2) Build-up the HTML into a string and return it back to the calling PHP
script, which can then echo it as required. I.e capture the output of
your class, don't let the class itself ever output anything. (i.e. start
to separate the presentation from the logic, if only mildly in this case)

Rich

the script does not appear to be displaying large files and the date thaty
is displayed on these large files is Dec-31-69
I did not create the script I downloaded it from
www.celerondude.com/php-indexer
I also tried to get some assistance from the authors site but have not been
repsonded to yet, so I thought I would try here.
The script itself is using php readdir and some javascript functions which
is why I am so confused.
the main portions of the script is
?php
// This block MUST be at the very top of the page!
@ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
if(isset($_GET['icon']))
{
$e=$_GET['icon'];
$I['file']='ENCODED gif files (*** I REMOVED to save SPACE ***)';
header('Cache-control: max-age=2592000');
header('Expires: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s \G\M\T',time()+2592000));
header('Content-type: image/gif');
print base64_decode(isset($I[$e])?$I[$e]:$I['file']);
exit;
}
// End block
// Start configs
$sitename='BACKUPS';
$date='M-d-y'; // date format
// $ignore=array('.','..','.htaccess','index.php','icon.php','iconup.php','
netdirs.php','main.css','index.html','Thumbs.db'); // ignore these files
$ignore=array('.','..');
// End configs
// $root=dirname(__FILE__);
$root=/archive1/AutoBackups;
$dir=isset($_GET['dir'])?$_GET['dir']:'';if(strstr($dir,'..'))$dir='';
$path=$root/$dir/;
$dirs=$files=array();
if(!is_dir($path)||false==($h=opendir($path)))exit('Directory does not
exist.');
while(false!==($f=readdir($h)))
{
if(in_array($f,$ignore))continue;
if(is_dir($path.$f))$dirs[]=array('name'=$f,'date'=filemtime($path.$f),'url'='/backupdirs1.php?dir='.rawurlencode(trim($dir/$f,'/')));
else$files[]=array('name'=$f,'size'=filesize($path.$f),'date'=filemtime($path.$f),'url'=trim($root/$dir/.rawurlencode($f),'/'));
}
closedir($h);
$current_dir_name = basename($dir);
$up_dir=dirname($dir);
$up_url=($up_dir!=''$up_dir!='.')?'/backupdirs1.php?dir='.rawurlencode($up_dir):'/backupdirs1.php';
// END PHP ?

RE: [PHP] Array remove function?
While that is true, you need to know the key,
you could do something like this,
which I think is more efficient than your way...
foreach($array as $key = $value)
{
if ($value == $remove)
{
unset($array[$key]);
//if you know there is only one hit,
//then you could also:
//return;
//for more efficiency and speed.
}
}

That works when you know the key, but will that work when you only

foreach($array as $key = $value) {
if($remove_value $value != $remove) {
$new_array[$key] = $value;

array_remove(array(1=2,2=3),2,true); // array (2=3)
array_remove(array(1=2,2=3),2,false); // array (1=2)
Anyone knows if there already exists such function?
Else should i create future request?

Something along these lines?
$flipped=array_flip($arr);
unset($flipped[$val])
return array_flip($flipped);
From the manual of array_flip:
If a value has several occurrences, the latest key will be used as its
values, and all others will be lost.

[PHP] Novice PHP Question - Listing Folder Contents
I apologize in advance, however I know almost nothing about PHP - ( but I am trying to learn now)...

OMG. Now that is the best idea. How simple. Guess I learned something new today too! :) -Original Message- From: Lori Lay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Use array_search() and unset()? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Array remove function?
Unset works, but if he's trying to do a search and remove in one function,
unset is a step removed from that criteria (missing the 'search' part).
Looking at the array functions, I see some potential.
# array_remove(array(1=2,2=3),2,true); // array (2=3)
// Keep all but where values = 2
$new_array = array_diff(array(1=2, 2=3, 3=4), array(2));
print_r($new_array);
# array_remove(array(1=2,2=3),2,false); // array (1=2)
// Keeps only where values = 2
$new_array = array_intersect(array(1=2, 2=3, 3=4), array(2));
print_r($new_array);
So keeping the same syntax you had:
function array_remove($array, $remove, $remove_value = true) {
$remove = array($remove);
if ($remove_value) {
return array_diff($array, $remove);
} else {
return array_intersect($array, $remove);
}
}
Not a single function but a simpler version of your function.

RE: [PHP] PHP Directory List Script Files over 2 GB
I didn't take too much time to look at this, but I believe that where
you see:
---
sprintf(_f('%s',%d, .
---
Try and change that to:
---
sprintf(_f('%s',%u, .
---
From what information you provided, it seems that this is what would
work.

Subject: [PHP] PHP Directory List Script Files over 2 GB
Hello everyone
My OS information is
PHP Version 5.1.6
Apache/2.2.2 (Fedora)
Fedora Core 5 Kernel 2.6.20-1.2307.fc5
I am having some trouble with a script that displays files within a
directory.
the script does not appear to be displaying large files and the date
thaty
is displayed on these large files is Dec-31-69
I did not create the script I downloaded it from
www.celerondude.com/php-indexer
I also tried to get some assistance from the authors site but have not
been
repsonded to yet, so I thought I would try here.
The script itself is using php readdir and some javascript functions
which
is why I am so confused.
the main portions of the script is
?php
// This block MUST be at the very top of the page!
@ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
if(isset($_GET['icon']))
{
$e=$_GET['icon'];
$I['file']='ENCODED gif files (*** I REMOVED to save SPACE ***)';
header('Cache-control: max-age=2592000');
header('Expires: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s \G\M\T',time()+2592000));
header('Content-type: image/gif');
print base64_decode(isset($I[$e])?$I[$e]:$I['file']);
exit;
}
// End block
// Start configs
$sitename='BACKUPS';
$date='M-d-y'; // date format
//
$ignore=array('.','..','.htaccess','index.php','icon.php','iconup.php','
netdirs.php','main.css','index.html','Thumbs.db'); // ignore these files
$ignore=array('.','..');
// End configs
//
$root=dirname(__FILE__);
$root=/archive1/AutoBackups;
$dir=isset($_GET['dir'])?$_GET['dir']:'';if(strstr($dir,'..'))$dir='';
$path=$root/$dir/;
$dirs=$files=array();
if(!is_dir($path)||false==($h=opendir($path)))exit('Directory does not
exist.');
while(false!==($f=readdir($h)))
{
if(in_array($f,$ignore))continue;
if(is_dir($path.$f))$dirs[]=array('name'=$f,'date'=filemtime($path.$f)
,'url'='/backupdirs1.php?dir='.rawurlencode(trim($dir/$f,'/')));
else$files[]=array('name'=$f,'size'=filesize($path.$f),'date'=filemti
me($path.$f),'url'=trim($root/$dir/.rawurlencode($f),'/'));
}
closedir($h);
$current_dir_name = basename($dir);
$up_dir=dirname($dir);
$up_url=($up_dir!=''$up_dir!='.')?'/backupdirs1.php?dir='.rawurlencode

RE: [PHP] Copying PHP array into a Javascript array
Something along the lines of the following:
script type=text/javascript
var myArray=new Array();
?php
$files=getFiles($d);
foreach ($files as $key=$val) {
?
myArray[?php echo $key;?]=?php echo $val;?;
?php
}
?
/script
Although it looks nasty, I believe it could be a quick hack.

I don't know if I should ask this question here or in the JavaScript
group. I'll try it here since people usually are more helpful.
I've an array of file names
$files = getFiles ($d);
but would like to use this array in a JavaScript array. How can I copy
this $files into a JavaScript variable?

Re: [PHP] Array remove function?
http://php.net/array_flip followed up an unset, followed by another
array_flip, I guess...
Why in the world you'd architect the array with a value when you need
to unset by value in the first place is beyond me, though...

Hi,
Is there currently a function that removes a key/value from an

I use this code right now:
function array_remove($array,$remove,$remove_value = true)

foreach($array as $key = $value) {
if($remove_value $value != $remove) {
$new_array[$key] = $value;
} elseif (!$remove_value $key != $remove) {

array_remove(array(1=2,2=3),2,true); // array (2=3)
array_remove(array(1=2,2=3),2,false); // array (1=2)
Anyone knows if there already exists such function?
Else should i create future request?

Your buildInt() function jumps directly from PHP into HTML output,
without first closing the currently open PHP tag. It needs to be:

!--Script 10.1- calculator.php--

}
The approach you are taking for this is going to cause you
headaches in the future. I would strongly recommend that you make
your class file do one of two things:
1) ECHO out the HTML, rather than dropping in and out of PHP. It
gets real messy, real quick, especially when embedded in class files.
2) Build-up the HTML into a string and return it back to the
calling PHP script, which can then echo it as required. I.e capture
the output of your class, don't let the class itself ever output
anything. (i.e. start to separate the presentation from the logic,
if only mildly in this case)

I already use it, but I believe that try-catch would be _more_

With try-cath I can _get_ more errors instead with a if-then-else

I don't think MySQL or even mysqli have any kind of exception throwing
yet, if ever.
i.e.: with if-then-else:
$connect=mysql_connect(...);
if($connect)
{
if(!(mysql_select_db(...,$connect)))
{
echo Impossible select db.;
}
}
else
{
echo Impossible connect to server.;
}
If you didn't connect to the server, doing the select_db is rather
pointless, so I'd check the $connect FIRST, and deal with that
completely before trying to use a dead connection.
You don't put more money into the phone if the line is dead, do you?

If I want to get some debug info, I put some mysql_error() and I get
the error

can get some useful error message without... hum... *critical*

There is nothing you'd be able to get from a thrown exception that you
can't get with mysql_errno() and vice versa, in theory.
In reality, it will probably be some time before every possile MySQL
error code number (and they are legion) would be encapsulated as an
Exception.
So for maxiumu customization, short-term, mysql_errno() is probably
the way to go.
I often, for example, simply want to IGNORE mysql_errno($connection)
== 1062 becaue it's just a duplicate key insert, and that means I've
already dealt with whatever I was trying to insert, and just don't
care.

As I'm sure you know, you can't literally copy the values from PHP
into the javascript variable because the two languages are not
running concurrently; first PHP runs and finishes, then javascript
runs. What you can do is use PHP to build javascript code in which
the array values are hardcoded.
Say you want the javascript code to look like this:
aFileArray = new Array('file1.jpg', 'file2.jpg', 'file3.jpg');
Then PHP can write this for example into the HTML head:
// join array with quotes commas
$html = implode(', ', $files);
// output javascript statement to browser
echo aFileArray = new Array('$html');;
or:
echo _
script type=text/javascript
aFileArray = new Array('$html');
/script
_;

I am wondering if it is possible to create a PHP page that can:
1 - Get the contents of everything in its own folder at the same level (
just list sub folders filenames - not their contents)
2 - List/ display the contents on the same Web-page
Q: I'm sure this is most likely doable - but I sure could use some help -
any ideas how to do this?
Example list:

It might be better to use:

You have to do:
session_start();
before you can use $_SESSION.
$field1 = $_SESSION['field1'];
$field2 = $_SESSION['field2'];
Why did you bother to get $_SESSION data if you're about to throw it
away?
// GET
$field1 = urldecode($_GET['field1']);
$field2 = urldecode($_GET['field2']);
$_GET is already urldecoded before you ever see it.
This is not Perl. :-)
So unless you've got something doing an extra extra bogus urlencode()

if ($pass != $password_db) {
It is customary to store the password in the DB as a one-way encrypted
hash. For example, you could store the http://php.net/md5 of the
password, and then compare md5($password) with $password_db
The point being that your DB has something like:
4975gb87987hi2uh4rhvvyrt57ty
in it, instead of the actual password, so if somebody manages to break
into the DB or snag the data from it somehow, they STILL don't have
anybody's password.
field1=.urlencode($_POST['field1']).field2=.urlencode($_POST['field2']);
echo div class=\blocoApresentacao\
There are some lines missing here or something...
In addition to urlencoding() the data, you should also call
htmlentities on the whole URL before you dump it to the browser.
pWrong password, please try again./p

exit;
}
print('Welcome ' . $name);
This print() statement is not inside an if(){ } block.
It's ALWAYS going to print.

Re: [PHP] Array remove function?
At 4/10/2007 03:09 PM, M.Sokolewicz wrote: Such a function is inherently a Bad Idea (tm). array-values are not unique. Array keys are. So unless you want to emulate the way array_flip works (bad idea (tm)), I'd say: leave it be. Whoever owns that trademark has totally got to be the wealthiest person in this battered old world~ I guess one could argue that if the array values must be unique then you could use the associative array keys to hold those values; then you can use unset() to remove selected keys which *are* the values. If both keys and values are unique, I'd consider (if only briefly) maintaining two arrays, one a flipped version of the other, so I could look up key/value pairs using either node. If the values aren't unique and you want to remove all array elements with a given value, you might use array_walk(). Flipping the array back and forth just to unset individual elements seems extremely inefficient. Besides, if the element values aren't unique, won't flipping the values keys eliminate array elements that share the same value?

Re: [PHP] Bind IP with fsockopen
Im having trouble converting this snippet to use the bind_socket function.
my original code is..
?
$domain = 'internet.co.uk';
$fs = fsockopen('dac.nic.uk', 2043, $errno, $errstr, 60);
if (!$fs) {
fclose($fs);
} else {
fputs($fs, $domain\r\n);
$line = fgets($fs, 1024);
echo $line;
}
?
I think im getting stuck on the fputs bit.. I have this which does not
work..
?php
$domain = 'internet.co.uk';
$sourceip = 'xx.xx.xx.xx'; // ip you want to bind to
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
socket_bind($sock, $sourceip);
socket_connect($sock, 'dac.nic.uk', 2043);
// Write
$request = $domain\r\n;
socket_write($sock, $request);
//Read reply
// Close
socket_close($sock);
?
Thanks

I do this all the time for small/medium arrays. You'd want to avoid it, maybe for monster arrays... But you rarely have unique keys + values if the arrays are all that large anyway, in Real Life. -- Some people have a gift link here. Know what I want?

Assume, for the sake of argument, that you have no access to

Very bad solution.
What specifically is so bad?
