Thank you! Glad someone pointed this out so I didn't have to. And if you use a system like Recaptcha which has an audio option, you've still locked out deafblind users. Also, avoid relying on javascript. It can be turned off, disabled, blocked and sometimes isn't available at all, such as with some speech/Braille browsers. Or lynx. Yes I'm a blind person, but even a person who isn't may want to use it quickly from a shell to get something done. One popular route is to ask a question that only a human could answer. I use this method on the contact page of my site. I just ask a question such as Multiply the number of heads a person has by the number of legs on 2 dogs. It's easy for a human, but requires context, something a bot can't do effectively. Since the person was looking for a ready-made solution, I'd like to recommend TextCaptcha.com. It claims to have 180,243,205 easy questions, and even has an article on ways to avoid needing a CAPTCHA in the first place. I once (and only once) struck a test like this on a New Zealand government website. I nearly died of shock. And I was able to use it with lynx with no problems at all.

[PHP] Re: problems in extension development
Besides, are there some APIs I can use if I want to setget environment variables like DOCUMENT_ROOT in my extension(similar to sapi_cgienv_get/set). Thanks! 2012/2/17 Rui Hu tchrb...@gmail.com hi, I just started to write a simple PHP extension hello, but encountered some problems. I followed tutorials step by step: 1. ./ext_skel --extname=hello 2. modified hello.c and php_hello.h, and wrote function hello_world() which simply return a string hello world. 3. phpize 4. ./configure ; make ; 5. the I encountered error in make. I looked up in Makefile and found that $(PHP_MODULE) is null, which I think is the reason. Makefile is automatically generated by ./configure. What mistake did I make? How to fix it? Thanks!

Re: [PHP] pathinfo or other
Hi, All I do not remember where I found the list of variables that are provided if you load PHP using Apache, nginx, IIS ... Fact is that there's a list of variables in the CGI 1.1 definition that should be given to a cgi script: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3875#section-4 PATH_INFO is on the list and therewith should at least be given to every cgi-script. As not all web-server are fully compatible to the definition or do not support cgi 1.1 there are quite much posts where you find work-arounds for misconfiguration web-servers. I know about nginx that you have to add a special configuration to get the path_info - but the example provided at the developers-page sometimes returns a wrong value. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8265941/empty-value-to-path-info-in-nginx-returns-junk-value/ Maybe there are also some other known issues around this PATH_INFO ... Here's a request for a portable way to receive the path-info even if it's not provided by the web-server: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1884041/portable-and-safe-way-to-get-path-info I've always tried to use something like mod_rewrite and manage all incoming requests in an own dispatcher. That helped me a lot getting around this problems. Hope that this gives you more detailed information in what you need.

For this reason he provides a list of extra stuff that you can use to protect your formula against spam instead of a picture that's text should be written in an input-field. One of those is the honey-pot. You simply create an additional field (f.e. * email2*) hide it for most visitors (using *css*) and ignore the comment if there's text in here. As most of the bots cannot read css they'll fill a valid email-address in here :) But then you also have to think about users that have css disabled f.e. *ScreenReader*. Another disadvantage of this issue is that you can use an auto-field-fill mechanism provided by the browser who could fill this field ... But both cases should not be that difficult. For the screenreder you can change the label for the field to look like *Do not paste your email in here. Just leave it empty.* Just to have the word email again in here ;) Another good thing is to think about how fast this form can be submitted when the user enters the formula for the first time. Also think about the second time, when the user as entered some wrong values and you have to show him a message. If you have a formula that contains more than 5 fields it's quite unusual that the user can submit that below 2 sec after receiving the response. You could even add a feature by using javascript that the user cannot submit this form or his request will be delayed for a view seconds (one or two).

system() Returns the last line of the command output on success, and FALSE
on failure.
So, lets assume your gams program does not fail but prints nothing, the
output is empty.
By simply checking
if (system(...))
you will get echo 'Error'; even if everything is fine, but nothing is
print. Try checking on FALSE
if (($out = system(...)) !== FALSE)
{
print('Not error');
printf('Output is %s', $out);
}
else
{
print('Error');
}
Besides: I would prefer setting the complete path to your exe-file.

give the full path of trnsport_php.gms too. shell_exec should be working fine on windows as well.
Re: [PHP] how to execute Exe file in system
I don't know what is going here!? well it shows no error but the out put is nothing and my gams when running should make a text file but by running,it doesn't happen so It has problem
Re: [PHP] how to execute Exe file in system
Try to write full path to executable file and don't forget to bring
double quote to that path. It must because Program files contain
space and php think your program is Program that contain parameter
files.

Re: [PHP] basic captcha
Hei, Ashley The php bugtracker himself uses just simple math. Others are made by clicking on the man's name in the picture (3 shaddows of people with names in there) ... But I myself dislike the visitor having extra-work. Therefore I'll stick to the honey-pot the referer check and so on. One check I think is quite effective is something google does for discovering spam-mail: Discover which language this mail is written in. If it does not seem to be a lanuage at all its most likely spam ;) But I think that's not possible for not-so-big websites .. Anyways: most likely it's just about filtering the 99% spam and get all user-mails through. Nothing is more annoying as when you (as user) get the feedback *Go away!

* Use back ticks to get the full output.
* Use escapeshellcmd and escapeshellarg to ensure the command is built in a
safe and valid way.
* Redirect stderr to stdout using 21 so you see any error messages that are

Try that, then you can build logic that checks the output for errors. You may
also want to make sure that safe_mode is disabled, though I doubt that's the
problem.

Re: [PHP] how to execute Exe file in system
I think it's wrong:

Instead, try this:
system(' C:/Program Files/GAMS23.7/gams.exe C:/Program

It is a good practice to write full path because we don't know
behaviour any operating system we use when we just use simple name.

[PHP] ASP to PHP
I think I've already decided how to handle this, but I thought it's worth asking. I've inherited some fairly static .asp sites which are being hosted on a windows server and to tidy things up I'm looking to 'move' them to one of the linux boxes. My Initial thought is simply to clone the working site and add back in any functionality that I need. None of them are dynamic ( those are alreay on PHP :) ) so at least static html will be easier to maintain than the .asp code. But has anybody had any experience of translating the asp code over? ( I'm also playing with asp2php at the moment :) ) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

many files but It needs many other files which I regretted so it is not
possible.

gams.exe should be execute in that path file in program Files
one time I tried to do it and when It shows me missing files I copy

many files but It needs many other files which I regretted so it is not
possible.
I tried \\\

GENERATES:

Ok, in that case try \\\ instead of \. Alternatively move GAMS23.7 out
of
Program Files and into a directory without spaces!
Change the \\ in the commands to just a single \ but leave the space
after
it.

If that still doesn't seem to work, I suggest you try just executing

$cmd = 'C:/Program\\ Files/GAMS23.7/gams.exe 21';
Backticks execute a command and return the output:

ERRORNULL maybe program Files which has space should have something like \ which I don't know ha? or because of Null It is correct? means false.. it cannot find the path. you have problem with path.

when echo system('dir')

qoute the paths using \ double quoutes outside. then pass them.

[PHP] html_entity_decode is trying to kill me
Hi, So I decided to give one of those PHP math classes a go and have come across a joyful character encoding problem. He's the deal: $rule = 1 lt; 2; $rule = html_entity_decode($rule, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'); echo $rule; And the result is still 1 lt; 2.

[PHP] Do an LDAP Password Modify Extended Operation?
Is it possible to do an LDAP Password Modify Extended Operation, as
specified in RFC 3062? The password hashing scheme in the LDAP directory I
am working with may change periodically, so it is my understanding that I
can't hash a new password according to a specific scheme, e.g., {SHA}, on
my side. Instead, I should use an Extended Operation and let the directory
do the hashing. Is that correct? The help page for ldap_set_option
suggests that it might be possible, but I sure can't find any example code
anywhere.

Re: [PHP] basic captcha
Thanks for all the input. Yes, there are a lot of ways and means and issues that can be considered (thanks Simon), but this project will use a simple captcha, mostly because it is familiar to users and fits with the project. Yes, I've found some options via google, but was more inquiring to see if you all had success with certain open-source freeware scripts. I haven't used google's version, but the problem I have with using google API's is that there can be delay's in page loading (in my experience). I don't generally like linking to 3rd party API's when I can help it. Ashley, I've used some of your techniques before within projects where those types of things fit. One I thought about recently is displaying an array of colors in random order and asking the submitter to choose their favorite color from the list. Perhaps not fool proof, but nice creative option.

Re: [PHP] html_entity_decode is trying to kill me
It actually works for me as well if I run it in the browser. The structure of the app is a bit strange, though, so debugging character encoding issues is quite difficult. The code is being run by Code Igniter in the backend and the response passed via JSON to a ExtJS 4 frontend, so what I'm looking at to debug is the server's response in the browser console. What I can say is that I decode the string and pass it immediately afterwards to the EvalMath class that was suggested earlier, it complains that there's illegal characters lt;, so obviously it's the server that isn't operating as expected... but why?

Glad someone pointed this out so I didn't have to. And if you use a system like Recaptcha which has an audio option, you've still locked out deafblind users. Also, avoid relying on javascript. It can be turned off, disabled, blocked and sometimes isn't available at all, such as with some speech/Braille browsers. Or lynx. Yes I'm a blind person, but even a person who isn't may want to use it quickly from a shell to get something done. One popular route is to ask a question that only a human could answer. I use this method on the contact page of my site. I just ask a question such as Multiply the number of heads a person has by the number of legs on 2 dogs. It's easy for a human, but requires context, something a bot can't do effectively. Since the person was looking for a ready-made solution, I'd like to recommend TextCaptcha.com. It claims to have 180,243,205 easy questions, and even has an article on ways to avoid needing a CAPTCHA in the first place. I once (and only once) struck a test like this on a New Zealand government website. I nearly died of shock. And I was able to use it with lynx with no problems at all.

What's arriving at the target is exactly the POST array that this script received in the first place. Here's what I don't understand... The cURL request is coming from this script on domainA, but the target address is also domainA. Does everybody play nice in this situation?

http://www.mail-archive.com/internals@lists.php.net/msg19665.html
It provides a lot of the functionality that you can only imagine and more, but
it fails against versions 5.3.x.
I sent an email to the original maintainer, Pierangelo, but have not received a
response yet on that status of maintenance.
Do you use OpenLDAP? I am not sure if it built, if it would support AD or not.
