Re: [PHP] defending PHP mail function
Really? No good at all, huh? I would think that would answer the question right there if it was an SMTP problem or a problem that lies elsewhere. If you take SMTP out of the equation, and the problem still occurs, then you know that's not the issue. If the problem does go away, then you've isolated it to either PHP SMTP code (probably) or your SMTP server (not as likely, but still a possibilty) He already stated that the same code worked with a previous version. He also made it clear that he was using Win32/SMTP. We all know it will probably work on a Unix box with sendmail or similar because so many of us use it on a daily basis with no such problem - that won't help his situation. I think probing the guy a bit on the premise that he might be mistakenly loking at Php as the problem is fair enough, but beginning an inquisition certainly isn't warranted ;) jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] virtual() call to CGI script
if you're using apache, something along the lines of the following untested directives should prevent anyone but the localhost (which is where your virtual() calls should be coming from) from accessing the cgi's via http Directory /path/to/usr/cgi order deny, allow deny from all allow from localhost /Directory Thanks for the idea, but ... That would cause the script to be executed with permissions of the web server, and for security, that is generally prohibited by the ISP (we are the ISP). The only exception to that rule is public scripts which reside in: safe_mode_exec_dir = /host/runphp and are thus allowed to execute with permissions of the web server. To provide for the execution of private user CGIs, each user has their own /cgi directory. Apache is configured to recognize /cgi in any URL as an executable CGI, and wraps all user CGIs with SuEXEC, to run them with permissions of the user, not the web server. But of course that means user scripts are accessible via URL. So the question remains, how to limit their access. As the ISP, we could use any feature of the web server for our own CGIs, but we intentionally avoid that. We have a hosting environment with a rich set of customer accessible tools, and we demonstrate that fact by using only those tools ourselves. IOW, we use what we sell. I have some techniques for limiting access to user CGIs, but I still wonder how others have approached this problem ...

Re: [PHP] virtual() call to CGI script
After testing this I see that: Apache uses the IP address of the remote host to determine whether to allow or deny access. Even though PHP is running on localhost, and making a request via the virtual() function, Apache still knows the IP address of the remote host, and uses that. I didn't think of that I just did a test on my own server and used readfile(http:///cgi-bin/test;) where test just prints getenv(REMOTE_ADDR) and it prints the ip address of eth0, so you'd be able to do it this way - but I don't think using readfile() is as nice as virtual() in this case because readfile() performs another literal http request back to the server causing the use of another httpd process I think, whereas virtual() probably doesn't Another way you might be able to do it is find an environment variable that is only present when the cgi's are executed by the virtual() call, then use the apache SetEnvIf directive combined with DirectoryMatch jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] .htaccess and determining if a user is logged in
I've done further investigation and it seems that if I go with the approach of looking for a REMOTE_USER value, I'll have to do the following: Since Apache only fills out the REMOTE_USER if the file is in a protected directory, I have to make a symbolic link within a protected directory to the non-protected script. Then Apache will require authentication for the file. Thus, both non-authenticated and authenticated users are running the same script. Any problems with this approach? My worry is that if the user passes $REMOTE_USER=FooledYou in the url, it'll fool my script into thinking Apache sent it. I'll have to check into that one. Any better ideas?

Re: [PHP] sprintf()'s in if()'s

Guess my question is; why doesn't this work?
if(sprintf(%01.2f,$Result[CurrentPrice]+$Result[Increment]) =
sprintf(%01.2f,$BidAmt)) {
when this works;
if(0.30 = 1.00) {
I'll just settle with a workaround for now.
Thanks,

The former is being treated as a string, the latter is a double/float
You probably don't need to format them when making the comparison. Just try:
if ( ($Result[CurrentPrice]+$Result[Increment]) = $BidAmt) {

Re: [PHP] php4 as a module AND a cgi
I have to ask, though, why would you want to run it as a cgi? Its slower as cgi and runs more security risks. I'd only run it as a cgi if that was my only choice. It's probably less of a security risk when utilised via the cgi actually, at least when using Apache as the webserver because you can use suExec to cause it to run under the script owner's uid instead of Apache's. I've often considered switching vhosts over to the cgi version instead of module for this very reason. jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] php vs perl
When Jason says 'especially when your note using the cgi' he means the cgi version of PHP (I think) in preference to installing PHP as an apache module. Almost, yes - I literally meant the 'common gateway interface', due to the fact that the webserver spawns the requested script/program outside of it's own process. I don't know the technical detals involved in doing this, but I'm guessing that in general, it'd incur more overhead on the system than the same code would if it was parsed by the already-running httpd process. jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] deleting cart items on session expire
However, there's no necessity to have the cgi version if you already have the modular version. All that is needed is to call the appropriate script using a tool such as 'wget'. This can be done manually or from cron as appropriate. Billy No there's not - I think that goes without saying though. But while you're compiling Php anyway, why not re-run ./configure without the '--with-apache' and add an '--enable-discard-path' and type 'make; make install' - then you can use this awesome tool from the command line without having to invoke a http request to your webserver usng a third-party tool. jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] php vs perl
Is there any reason why php is better than perl for shopping carts and/or product catalogs? Thanks, Jeff It's hard to just come out and say that php is better than perl for shopping carts because there's too many factors to take into consideration. If you were a person who'd never used either, I'd guess that php might be better to use because the essential ingredients are pretty much already included with php, such as session handling, form and url data processing, and a wide variety of database functions. That's not to say the same things aren't fairly easy to plug right into perl by way of readily-available modules, but it's probably a bit of extra work, especially for the beginner. Someone who already uses perl would likely have libraries for these things already installed/handled anyway though. I think the syntax might be a little easier to understand in php too, although it's sure to be a personal preference thing to a large extent. To me, the bottom line is go with the one you feel most productive/comfortable with. They're both about as cross-platform portable as each other (I think?) and both are pretty robust under heavy load, especially when you're not using the cgi. jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] deleting cart items on session expire
You'll probably need to trigger the deletion of all expired carts with something other than trying to guess when the user closes their browser.

Re: [PHP] deleting cart items on session expire
If you're already using the CGI version of PHP, there isn't any disadvantage to using either it or perl scripts to do this clean-up. If you're running the Apache module version of PHP, you'll need to find a tool that can be invoked from the command prompt (such as perl) to do this for you. Just as an aside, there's no reason I can think of that you can't run both the Apache module and standalone binary on the same system side by side - I've been doing this for about 2 years without trouble. jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] Sockets
The online manual has some working examples Also, using the socket funcs in Php isn't very different from using them in C - try searching www.google.com if the examples in the manual aren't enough jason - Original Message - From: "Boget, Chris" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Php (E-mail)" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2001 8:00 AM Subject: [PHP] Sockets Are there any tutorials on how to use Sockets in PHP? If so, where can I find them? I've looked on several of the sites that are linked from the main php.net site but found nothing... :/ Thanks.

Re: [PHP] FW: Cookies, Dammit!
I hope you don't mind me nagging on this ;) but what do you mean by having to echo changes into the /minisite directories? What I meant was, from minisite45/index.htm, include() the same content include file you use in /index.htm. I'm not seeing why the /minisitex/index.htm pages need to change at all? The only thing that would change is the content of the include()'d file that /index.htm, and the minisite/indexx.htm include. /index.htm html etc etc body... ? include "main_include.inc"; ? /body /html main_include.inc: some possible html tags ? echo "Welcome". ($minisite ? " from $minisite" : "."); ? some possible html tags /minisite45/index.htm html stuff ? $minisite = 45; /* or even a snip that dynamically gets it from the script_name */ include "main_include.inc"; ? - Original Message - From: "Richard S.

However, since /index.htm is a dynamic page which changes frequently, we don't want to have to try to echo all of those changes into all of the /minisite directories (of which there are well over 100) every single time a change occurs. We're going to try the second approach now, but we still are going to try to build the query string of the Location: header based on values retrieved from a MySQL database. -- Richard S.

Re: [PHP] MySQL Newbie ? -Help!
one simple way would be to make a duplicate, empty table and then do: insert into newtable select distinct * from oldtable then try adding a uniqueness constraint if you don't want duplicates in the future jason Hi, Is there a way to go through a table and remove all duplicate entries so that there is only one? The way I am doing it now is taking FOREVER.
