 What makes you think that the developer did something unethical?

It looks like you're familiar with this particular case and the developper 
happens to be your friend so you're defending him?
Anyways, I believe I said to make a long stroy short. but if you insist on 
knowing why I said that he did something unethical (let me add to that 
unprofessional ); he sold an intellectual property which he was paid to 
developpe to competitors in the business.


 I have seen those small icons used by numerous developers, but I don't
 know if they are available for uncredited or uncompensated works. Other
 than that those screenshots look like dozens of packages I have seen.

Thanks for the feedback.

 Capable to upload what in a batch?

Have you ever seen anyone upload bananas or oranges on the net? the most 
obvious word that could be placed here is files, excuse me for forgetting 
to mention it!

BTW: thanks for the your time Jay.

[PHP] CMS question.

2003-08-22 Thread Edmond Baroud
Hi all,

I have a friend who have paid a developper to build him a CMS. This honest 
programmer did that (supposedly developped it on his own), encoded the CMS 
with Ioncube and did some other unethical activities as well. To make a long 
story short, I have read some articles about decoding and cracking the source 
/ reverse engineering, and it looks like it is time consuming and also 
illegal.

I have taken snapshots of the CMS and put them available to whoever is 
interested in giving me a hand to see if this CMS is an open source one?
note the php files: categories_list.php, content_list.php and 
content_edit.php.
the CM is also capable to upload in batch... ?
It might be a mix of CMS and an Image Gallery script pakcage.. I also see that 
Smarty (template engine) is installed in the same root directory of the CMS, 
I am not familiar with Smarty, and since the code is encoded I have no way to 
tell wether it's being used with it or not..

Any hints would be appreciated!

snapshots available here:

PS: the CMS is not used for the website above where I put the images :)

Thanks!

Ed.

[PHP] MySQL's connection information.

2003-03-26 Thread Edmond Baroud
Hi all,

I've been using php in a local Unix environement where I never had to worry about read 
permissions of users/groups on my db connection's config file which contains the user 
and password. I'm trying to think of a possible solution for my connection properties 
in a shared/hosting environement where users/groups *might* have read access to my 
files.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Ed.
