Re: [PHP] Identifying a user who previously created a profile
You could do a few things here. I would not banned people from signing up again if the ipaddress is in the database. You could make it so no email could be in the database more than once. What I did before was: if a user's ipaddress matches an ipaddress in the database I have the script email me to investigate, then I can decide and delete accordingly. You could do the same thing for similar email addresses, similar cities etc depending on paranoid you are about it. Using Ipaddress is a bad idea because ISP recycle ipaddresses all the time. Randy Jacques wrote: How can I ensure that a user is prevented from creating a second profile after he has registered a second time with different registration details?

The only code in the PHP page is ? echo 'hello world'; ?. No MySQL stuff, so that eliminates the initial idea of MySQL causing the slowness. Nevertheless, it IS slow and I have no idea why or where to start looking. The phpinfo() can be found on www.debuginc.com/info.php. Any help or hints are highly appreciated.

Was wondering if there was a clever way of doing this with foreach on
$row. something like
foreach( $row as $index = value ) {
create_var( $index, $value );
}
So the question is is there a function like create_var which takes a
string and a value and creates a variable?
I think extract() is what you're after. Just note that the quickest way
to do things isn't always the best.
Is $description going to be shown to the users? How are you protecting
it so that it doesn't contain HTML/JavaScript code? Is any of this going
into form elements? How are you preparing it so that a double/single
quote doesn't end the form element?
Just pointing out that although you can quickly create the variables
you're after with extract(), there may still be other things you should
do before you use them.
Also, why are you wasting processing time creating $text instead of just
using $row['text'] in whatever output you have? It's a few more
characters to type, but it takes away one level of possible confusion
when you come back to this code later.
Just my $0.02.

Re: [PHP] User data validation
I have a proccess where a user submits the data, data is run through checks, validation etc , then stored in a session. then the user goes to confirmation page where they hit submit to verify the details are correct. when they hit submit they go to another script that pulls the session variables. My question is: should i run the data through validation again or can i be assured that the data is a ok because it was already validated ,stored in a session and then pulled from a session.

Yeah, I'm scared...
Please excuse me but may I say that it seems like you've sent some wrong
info to the wrong mailing list?
I use PHP NOT ASP, I use MySQL or PostgreSQL or Oracle but NOT M$ SQL
Server. And IIS? Of course, some people use it (perhaps) because of some
unavoidable circumstances but I don't--I use Apache NOT IIS.
Of course, there's nothing bad about being cautious... However, please
send
some links (or documents) that are more relevant...
Thanks anyway, now *I* have something to scare my friends... ;)

Please CC me as I'm on digest:
--
Are there any libraries for data validation available? If one reads
papers like these:
http://www.nextgenss.com/papers/advanced_sql_injection.pdf
http://www.nextgenss.com/papers/more_advanced_sql_injection.pdf
It becomes apparent that sites using databases are incredibly open to
attack because of the ingenuity of the attackers. I think there should
be a PHPGuardLib or something. After reading those articles, I plan on
filtering ALL input for semi-cololons and 'chr(' character strings. In
the cases where I want to accept apostrophes, I'm going to be very
careful.
Also, are there any attacks to email programs on linux that can be done
through input forms?
PS, for those who think escaping user input only on apostrophes, THINK
AGAIN! And read the aticles above.

[PHP] question concerning php parsing
if i have functions.php with 10 functions in it and include the file in my main php file and call 1 of the 10 functions in my program does the whole functions.php have to be parsed or does it just include the function that is needed. I am just curious as I plan to use the phpa on my scripts and if I don't need all those functions to be in memory just the function that i call. Hope i did not confuse anybody.

I would like opinions how somebody could offer a 50/50 coin toss game and gurantee a 45% win ratio for the player The idea of game programming is appealing, but I have no idea how you would gurantee that the player wins 45% of the time and the operators win 55% of the time.

[PHP] temp file part II
I have not managed to get IE to download my file on the fly as suggested.
so I was wondering if there are any other suggestions on how I can create a
temp file for download and after the download is complete the file is
deleted.
thanks
randy
Instead of:
header("Content-disposition: filename=backup.csv");
try
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=backup.csv');

[PHP] temp file help
The following code downloads information on the fly and saves it as a file
on the user's hard drive. It works great in Netscape downloads data
properly but in Internet explorer it doesn't work.
Here is the error I get any ideas?
IE was not able to open this site the site is either unavailable or cannot
be found.
BUT
if I right click and says "The file cannot be written to cache". I even
commented out the following:
header("Pragma: no-cache");
But it still did not work. Please help !!!
Thanks

Also is there a way to have the file download as filename.csv but have the actually file that is create named a random name of numbers and letters i.e. 2s3d4f5g6h.csv My concern is to have the file be deleted after download and/or make it so no other users could guess the url and download someone else's history.

[PHP] Crypt problem
hello
I use crypt to crypt member's passwords and use the following verify
"$stored_password" is the encrypted, stored password.
"$password" is the plain text password you just got from the form.
## Check the passwords
$encrypted_password = crypt($password,$stored_password);
if ($encrypted_password = $stored_password) { $logged_in = 1; };
the problem I am having is that it is only comparing the first 8 characters
of the password
so if my password was randyrandy
i could get in with randyran
How do I fix this
the crypt password is stored in the database with enough room to store the
password so it isn't cutting it off when inserting to the database.
thanks
randy
