Try this instead: exec(php path/calculate.php); I still don't think this is how exec() should be used when executing remote PHP scripts via HTTP, since the web server is not going to give you the underlying code simply because you're calling the URL from PHP and not your web browser. User-Agent tags do not a secure connection make. Perhaps doing a wget and directing it to /dev/null (if you're on *nix) would be appropriate to invoke a remote script and pass it parameters. Hell, even wget to standard output if you want, and use that as your result code. It's basically doing what cURL does, but outside of the PHP script itself. Anyway, I digress. My point is that exec(php http://mysite.com/script.php;) will fail, since it will be reading the remote script's OUTPUT, and not the remote script's SOURCE CODE. I dont' know how come his code works either. I figured that exec() is not going to get me anywhere when I have it stored remotely. I am now using cURL instead of using exec(), since it is doing a lot closer to what I initiated. I am not sure if I should have a new thread for this, but I found that things start to get a little weird when I tried to do cURL with Perl files inside. The PHP only brings me back Perl code and not the processed content. Is this something I should not be doing with cURL? It seems to do quite a bit of powerful processing when I wrote everything in PHP and have it stored remotely. Alice, If it's returning the code instead of the processed content, then it means that the webserver which houses the Perl script is not executing/parsing it. You should check with the administrator of the remote webserver to see if they have a Perl module installed, and if it is configured properly for your web app. HTH, Todd Boyd Web Programmer -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] changing order of items

this one bugs me for a while. how to change order.
I have a list of tasks. by status, task could be 1 (todo) or 0 (done) -
status value stored in mysql. I can list tasks per status or all.
order number is stored in mysql too.
the easiest way to change order is to have form for each task where you
will enter manually number and then submit (one submit button for whole
form). but, if you change order number for any task you have to change
then all order numbers below the task manually
solution with arrows (or up/down buttons) where you click on arrow and
the task switch the place with its neighbor is easy and fancy. Though,
I get in trouble if, e.g. tasks 10, 11, 12, and 13 change status from 1
to 0 and I have to move task 14 to place 6. I have to click first 4
times (to switch places with tasks 13, 12, 11, and 10) - but nothing is
actually happening on screen (of course) before start switching places
with 9, 8, 7, and 6.
how do you avoid this gap?
what solution do you use at all?
thanks for any help.

http://www.php.net/unsub.php
I am assuming that each time you click the up or down arrow you are
re-loading the page (via a GET request). A simple solution to this, would
be to adjust the URLs assigned to the up and down arrows to carry an extra
variable, the item either directly above or directly below the one selected,
and instead of doing whole-sale renumbering, create a swap function. That
just swaps the position of the two items.
example:
?php
$rows = get_items_in_list();
for ($i = 0 ; $i count($rows); $i ++) {
echo $rows[$i]['taskname'].nbsp;;
// create move up link
if ($i 0) {
echo 'a
href=page.php?this='.rows[$i]['position'].'other='.$rows[($i-1)]['position'].'move
up/anbsp;';
}
//create mode down link
if ($i (count($rows) -1)) {
echo 'a
href=page.php?this='.rows[$i]['position'].'other='.$rows[($i+1)]['position'].'move
up/abr/';
}
}
?
Then your page would just have to watch for those two variables being set at
load and select the appropriate items in the database based on the order and
swap their two positions, this will allow you to handle gaps in the
positioning scheme, for example when you are only listing the status 1 items
and not all the items.
*note* The code above is completely off-the-cuff and not tested, don't blame
me if there are any bugs in it ;)

[PHP] RegEx for a URL?
Hi folks,
I'm looking for a regular expression which matches a URL. I've found
several already by looking around various sites, but they don't seem
to accomplish what I'm looking for.
I'm developing a PHP-driven message board / forum system. As a part
of this, of course, I have to give users the ability to put links
in their messages without allowing them to post HTML, so I've settled
on the markup [link=URL]text[/link] (odd how much that looks like
an A tag, I know). There is also an [image=URL] tag which gets
changed into an IMG tag. Additionally, for user-friendliness, I'd
like to catch any URLs that are in the body of the text themselves -
these will be preceded by a newline, a space or will be at the very
start of the message, so the same RegEx should suffice.
The RegEx's I've tried so far:
1. (From the online PHP manual's user-contributed notes):
[[:alpha:]]+://[^[:space:]]+[[:alnum:]/]
Works ok for picking out URLs from plain text, but doesn't work with
[link=URL]text[link] ... it seems to eat the closing ] of the [link]
markup and it's all bad from there on out. Works fine though if I
change the markup rule to [link=URLspace]text[/link], but that's
nonstandard and not very intuitive.
2. (From regexlib.com, long line sorry)
(http|https|ftp)\://[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}(:[a-zA-Z0-9]*)?/?([a
-zA-Z0-9\-\._\?\,\'/\\\+amp;%\$#\=~])*[^\.\,\)\(\s]
Works fine for [link=URL]text[link] and picking URL itself out of
plain text, as long as URL isn't too complicated. It's happy with
a URL like http://www.shadow.net.au but when that URL has a path
after it, like http://www.game-spin.com/forums/gfx/stars/star1.gif
then it gets real useless, real fast.
If anyone's interested, the board system itself is up and running
on my dev/test server at http://boards.shadow.net.au - you can see
a live version at http://www.auswrestling.com/forum/ and also at
http://www.game-spin.com/forums/. I'll be releasing it soon, and
if someone can give me a working URL RegEx I'd be happy to give
them some credits in the documentation ;)
Thanks in advance...

You can achieve the same effect (having the same function do

$param1 is required, $param2 is optional - if its not

RE: [PHP] Home Finance System / Bill Splitter
I was about to set up a spreadsheet again - but since I've started getting into learning PHP - and have recently set up our home linux server - thought that it would be a lot more exciting / functional to have a system running on the server that would allow each person to log in, track the current bill status, pay a bill, enter new bills, etc. It seems strange to me why anyone would want to do such a thing.

RE: [PHP] Nasty DoS in PHP
I have found something interesting that can kill the server.
I'm not sure if this is because of Apache or PHP. If you use
PHP to send a header() inside of a while loop, the httpd
process will begin to use massive CPU and Memory until it is
killed, or the server is killed. Here is what I used:
?
while(01) {
header(A);
}
?
Umm, but, this is an infinite loop. It won't stop executing.
Actually, it *should* stop executing once PHP hits its maximum
execution time limit (usually 30 seconds).
If you code something like this into pages, you've got bigger
problems than a DoS attack.
It's also not strictly a DoS since you'd be doing it to yourself
if you ran this code. Of course, if you're silly enough to let
visitors to your website upload and execute arbitrary code then
there are, again, bigger problems (such as possibly comprimising
root access, fetching /etc/passwd and guessing passwords, or
getting access to other sensitive information on your file
system).
Unless there's something specifically bad about the Header()
command (you didn't make it clear if this is what you were
talking about), inifinite loops are, in general, bad.

RE: [PHP] Nasty DoS in PHP
It does not stop after its execution time. Is your PHP actually configured to stop running after 30 seconds, though? Its the default, but you may have overridden it. We have let this run for 10+ minutes to see if it would crash the server, and it did. Is it possible you're called set_time_limit() to increase the script's timeout and thus allow it to run? It does not affect the person that loads the code in the browser, just affects the server running the code. Well ... yeah.

RE: [PHP] Nasty DoS in PHP
It's a default PHP installation. We aren't calling set_time_limit().

Has anyone ever converted an excel file over to a MySQL database via PHP? I'm currently doing it with perl, and this isn't a very good option for me. The client needs to login to a server via ssh every time they want to put data from their excel file to mysql. I'd like to find some way to do it through a web browser. If you can get them to save the Excel file as tab-delimited, you could just read it, explode on \t and assemble your SQL insert statements. Failing that, you could continue to use the Perl script but accept the Excel file as a HTTP upload, and have PHP run the Perl script.

RE: [PHP] reading excel file
Thanks Jason, that is a pretty good idea. Any idea how well PHP handles large ammounts of data like that? There'll be about 25,000 lines in every excel file, and they come in groups of 5 or 6. I've rigged up an import script for similar functions before, it seems to run ok... it really depends on the specs of the server you're running it on. If you notice slowness, consider raising the timeout by X seconds per Y lines, then you can judge the size of the incoming file and change how long PHP gets to run.

RE: [PHP] php, text file, and mysql
But for storing images and PDFs or other binary data, there's no other way. Actually, after having some problems with BLOB columns when mysqldump'ing and moving the data into a new database, I did find another way. I borrowed a trick from MIME mail handling, and base64_encod'ed, then chunk_split'ed the data. This makes it very text-field friendly. Note that many MySQL wizards will recommend that instead of storing binary data in a database, use a filesystem to store the data and then use the database to create a sort of directory for quickly locating those files in the filesystem, There's a problem with this, it assumes that you only use one filesystem for your site. In the case of Melbourne IT / INWW, we have 5 or 6 web servers that load balance. If a user uploads data and we copy it to the filesystem, then it's only available on 1 web server. This is why we put it in the database. :) Jason -- Jason Murray [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Developer, Melbourne IT Work now, freak later! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] Unable to Jump Row ?!?
Here is the error...
Warning: Unable to jump to row 1 on MySQL result index 2 in
/blahblahblah/patient/display_search_results.php on line 39
This means that the query you executed didn't return enough
rows to count up to ... 1.
Here is the code on line 39
$d = mysql_result($result, $c, id);
the field id is an auto_increment column.
$c is an exsisting row in the query, $result.
Any help?
Yes, it looks like $result doesn't contain anything, so maybe
your SQL is messed up. When you execute queries, you should
do:
if ($result = mysql_query($sql, $mysql_connection))
{
// It worked, proceed
}
else
{
// It didn't work, die.
echo MySQL failed: .mysql_error();
}
... that will tell you what went wrong.
Is there a way to tell MySQL to shut the hell up on certain
pages?
Yes, if you put a @ in front of any function call it will
supress error messages. However, it's a better idea to fix
the cause of the error messages :)

RE: [PHP] IP address from which country
Thank you Andrew,but in China mainland ,I saw many websites can even tells the province information which the user come from and I think in USA the State information can also be gotten from the visitor's ip address.BTW,in PHP what we can get is just the ip address of the user how can we get the host name ?Anything missed here? A database may exist for IPs in China (I don't know), but outside of China it's impossible to tell with much accuracy which country an IP is in. You could look at Digital Envoy, which was an attempt a couple of years ago to 'map the internet' and obtain exactly the data you're referring to. The problem is that as soon as that data is published it's out of date due to routing changes and network configuration changes. You can do a reverse lookup on the IP address to get the hostname, but you can rely on that even less - for example, a hostname ending in aol.com could be in the USA, Europe, Asia, or Australia these days.

Say I wanted to do something as simple as (within a form): input type=button value=Test onclick= ?php print 'testing, testin 123';? Essentially, when a click this button in a form it prints out testing. PHP is a server-side script language.

news would actually be a PHP script, of course. I know how to handle /2002/01/02/keyword as parameters, my question is on making news be interpreted through PHP. Off the top of my head...

RE: [PHP] User-friendly URI's
A 404 ErrorDoc would still reply with a 404 code, which could mess up some search engines. Not true, try this: www.inww.com/ifdbnifoudbvfd This is actually produced by ErrorDocument 404 /404.php3 in our Apache configuration, and 404.php3 is a PHP script that sends the neccessary stuff to be seen as a 404 to a web browser (thats basically a TITLE tag of 404 Not Found). You could just as easily subvert 404.php3 to do redirects or include other stuff to produce the neccessary pages without sending the 404 bits (and we do, we recently moved all our PDF files into a database and use 404.php3 to silently redirect to the database-drawn version of the file). I was thinking of the .htaccess solution, but I'm not sure if that's possible to force only certain files or perhaps all files in just a certain directory to all be application/x-httpd-php? I believe you can force a single file.

Hi folks, I've seen messages on here in the past about Store Locator tools, where someone enters a postcode and the nearest store to that postcode is found.
