[PHP] PHP session expiring too early?
I am experiencing a strange bug after upgrading to PHP 5.2.4 with the Zend Optimizer 3.3.3. In two of our locally-hosted web applications, NolaPro and SugarCRM, the login sessions are expiring after 5 minutes of inactivity and I cannot figure why. The relevant values from my /etc/php.ini file are as follows: session.save_path = /var/lib/php session.use_cookies = 1 session.cookie_lifetime = 0 session.auto_start = 0 session.cookie_path = / session.cookie_domain = session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440 session.cache_limiter = nocache session.cache_expire = 180 /var/lib/php is set to 777 permissions. There is a cron job in /etc/cron.d/php: 09,39 * * * * root [ -d /var/lib/php ] find /var/lib/php/ -type f -mmin +$(/usr/lib64/php/maxlifetime) -print0 | xargs -r -0 rm The script /usr/lib64/php/maxlifetime outputs the value 24 which is consistent with the value in the php.ini file. There are no .htaccess files in the root directories for either of the applications.

I have it broken up into 7 sections. All 7 are generated by the same PHP source file, from data in a database. When the user updates a section they can submit it and go to the next section, or submit it and finish (return to a higher-level page). There is also a navigation form at the top that lets them jump from any section to any other, and uses JavaScript to prompt if they try to jump without having saved changes they made to the page. All of this is working fine. What's bothering me here is that when the user is done editing the data I use their input to regenerate a style sheet (the form allows them to customize the appearance of a web page for their customers). That's expensive -- relatively speaking -- in server load so I'd rather do it only once, when they're really done. But right now I do it every time they submit any page -- i.e. whenever any of the seven pages is submitted, the generation code runs. I don't see any simple way to let them jump around between pages, yet for me to know when they are truly finished with all the data. Of course I can give the required instructions -- after you are done you have to click submit to save all the data but I bet that those won't be read and the users will jump around, fail to save, and then complain that their changes are getting lost.

Re: [PHP] not gettingg desired results... is my programming logic run amuck...
Ok here is what I get...
The isAttendanceReport() fails... so in the displayMenu() function I get
Print Attendance Sheet
No Attendance Report Available1
OK, so why does isAttendanceReport() return 0?
When debugging it's always a good idea to plugin absolute values where
possible, ie instead of using isAttendanceReport($SID), use
isAttendanceReport(1).
When using 1 in the fuction... no change
During the code... it gets to the following point...
[snip]
#
# Check if report report is present or not #
#
if(!mysql_num_rows($dba['results']['attendance_report'])){
#report is not present
return 0;
}
else {
#report is present
return 1;
#gets here
}
[/snip]
it gets to the return 1 section
however the calling statement just does not seem to work
using SID = 1, mysql_num_rows($dba['results']['attendance_report'])
evaluates to 8
Dunno if that helps
Isolate the problem, just run isAttendanceReport() on its own and plugin
various values to see what comes back.
How can I do that... I have tried but how do you see what the output
is? I have tried just echo ing it, print_r, var_dump ...
Note that it is good practice to use { } around your statement(s).
I am under the opression that it is only for when you have
multistatement groups and not just a one statement after a condition?
Please correct me if I am wrong.
You're not wrong, like I said it's _good practice_. Say you revise your code
to add more statements, it is all too easy to forget to put in the braces as
well thus resulting in faulty logic in your code and you pulling your hair
out trying to figure what the problem is. PHP's flexibility also means that
there is more than one way to shoot yourself in the foot (TIMTOWTSYITF (TM)).
BTW PHP is not an oppressive language at all :)

Just to be sure, how are you determining that your code does indeed goes to
the 'else' branch and return 1? Because if it does indeed return 1 then:
echo isAttendanceReport(1); // should display 1
For debugging something like this I would put in echo statements (or
trigger_error()) all over the place to indicate which part of the code is
being executed.
however the calling statement just does not seem to work
If isAttendanceReport() did indeed return 1 then the if-clause in
displayMenu() would be obviously be true and would obviously execute (unless
you have uncovered a bug in PHP). So the most likely explanation is that
isAttendanceReport() is NOT returning 1.
using SID = 1, mysql_num_rows($dba['results']['attendance_report'])
evaluates to 8
Dunno if that helps
How does $dba['results']['attendance_report'] get assigned? What variables
does it rely on? What variables are present/not present in the case that
succeeds/fails?
$dba['query']['attendance_report'] = Select A.AttID, P.Part_ID,
P.LastName, P.FirstName, A.Present FROM Attendance A, Participants P,
Sessions S Where P.Part_ID = A.Participant AND S.SessionID =
A.Session AND A.Session = .$sd . ' ORDER BY P.LastName ASC';
# attendance_report -- Query is written above.
$dba['results']['attendance_report'] =
mysql_query($dba['query']['attendance_report']) or
die('$dba[\'query\'][\'attendance_report\']: '.mysql_error());
Isolate the problem, just run isAttendanceReport() on its own and plugin
various values to see what comes back.
How can I do that... I have tried but how do you see what the output

By not running unnecessary code. In this case you seemed to have determined
that isAttendanceReport() is not returning what you think it should be
returning. Hence running displayMenu() to test for the return value of
isAttendanceReport() is unnecessary, particularly when the execution of
displayMenu() is itself subject to a switch construct. So cut through the
crap and just run isAttendanceReport() direct as in:
echo isAttendanceReport(SOME_VALUE_FOR_SID);
If you still don't get any joy then dig deeper. What isAttendanceReport()
returns is solely dependent on:
mysql_num_rows($dba['results']['attendance_report'])
This return 8 for some the SID value of 1
As I have hinted above you have to find out what code is setting
$dba['results']['attendance_report'], what factors (variables) will affect
that code, and even try running that bit of code direct instead of going
through isAttendanceReport() (which itself is adding another layer of
unnecessary complexity).
Most of isAttendanceReport() comes directly from the code of
AttendanceReport() -- the function that fulls the report... the only
thing that it does does diffrently is is check to see if the data is
there instead of displaying the data.
When I was doing the DEBUGGING I had put echo 'got here(line
number)'; statements during the code and it displayed going through
out the isAttendanceReport().

[PHP] not gettingg desired results... is my programming logic run amuck...
Greetings:
I am having a problem with some php that I have written... In an
attempt to clearly state the problem and how it is supposed to work
the following may be lengthy, to which I appologize for.
I am not getting the results that I am expecting. I am using the
following url to access my page.
http://localhost/AHRC_PL/ahrc_programleader/ahrc_programleader.php?SID=1get_switch=0
the ahrc_programleader.php file is supposed to use switch/case
statement to determine what action to take:
switch ($_GET['get_switch']){
case 0:
displayMenu($_GET['SID']);
break;
case 1:
attendanceReport($_GET['SID']);
break;
case 2:
attendanceSheet($_GET['SID']);
break;
default:
// Return Error Message ## TO BE CODED LATER
// Reprint Menu
}
In the displayMenu() function it is (1) supposed to print out a link
to get an Attendance Sheet for the SID and (2) check if an attendance
report exists using the isAttendance Report() function... if there is
it prints out a link to it (ahrc_programleader.php with SID=$SID and
get_switch = 1. Otherwise it prints out No Attendance Report
Available. the function isAttendanceReport() is supposed to return
either a 0 if no report or invalid session id or 1 for is a report.
function displayMenu($SID){
echo a href=\ahrc_programleader.php?SID=.$SID.get_switch=2\Print
Attendance Sheet /abr /\n;
if(isAttendanceReport($SID))
echo a href=\ahrc_programleader.php?SID=. $SID .
get_switch=1\ Print Attendance Report /a br\n;
else
{
echo No Attendance Report Available;
echo $SID; // DEBUG CODE
}
#echo Enter Attendance br \n;## TO BE CODED LATER
#echo Print Progress Notes br\n; ## TO BE CODED LATER
#echo Print Progress Notes with Attendance br\n; ## TO BE CODED LATER
#echo View Participantsbr\n;
}
I know for a fact that an attendance report exists for the given SID.
Because when I manually put in the URL with the get_switch value = 1
(http://localhost/AHRC_PL/ahrc_programleader/ahrc_programleader.php?SID=1get_switch=1)
it displays the report.
When I was testing the code after it not returning results, I had
attempted to make sure that it was going through the logic and was
reaching the return 1; statement and it was... so I am perplexed...
Below I have placed links to the full code for both pages.

Just a comment : Note: This function (mysql_escape_string) has been deprecated since PHP 4.3.0. Do not use this function. Use mysql_real_escape_string() instead. So, if you're coding new scripts is better to use mysql_real_escape_string().

Re: [PHP] Square brackets tags
I am thinking in theory include() the file in to a wrapper php file
that can then do as Marco says evaluate or do a series of
str_replaces?
[quote from previous emails]
I'm sure there are. For example you can convert the string using
htmlspecialchars, and then convert only allowed tags back:
$text = htmlspecialchars($_POST['text']);
$replace_to = array('b', '/b');
$replace_from = array();
foreach($replace_to as $tag) {
$replace_from[] = htmlspecialchars($tag);
}
$text = str_replace($replace_from, $replace_to, $text);
Or you can install pear in your account, just unpack the archive and set
include_path.

Typically people use BBCode to do this.
This mean the user will enter something like
[b]this is bold[/b] or [i]italic[/u] and the BBCode will be parsed and
transformed into HTML when the page is displayed. There are many parsers
already written to do this, or you could make your own, or use PEAR:

Of course, this only works assuming that the would-be hacker doesn't know

mix it up, use a rather unique variable name and or use a value that is hard

Re: Does it _really_ matter if only a number is passed?
I would think so since if someone is trying to pass a string that is
not proper it should be treated as such and not as if they are just
take the first set of numbers and Throw away all the rest.
Maybe I am over thinking this or I am being paranoid
I am trying to make this work good and hope to design it to be
secure since this is my first PHP endevor
Thanks

Does it _really_ matter if only a number is passed? If someone passes
abcd and it's converted to an integer, it'll be zero. Then your query
will not return any rows (which you're already testing for, anyhow,
right?) and be handled accordingly. Who cares if they pass 104abcd?
It'll just be converted to 104 and see if a matching record exists.
I think you're getting caught up in too many tests. If you're expecting
an integer, MAKE it an integer, then run your query. 99.9% of your
values are going to come through correct if they are coming from your
program, right? Just silently ignore the rest because it's someone
screwing around.
If, however, you _really_ want to ensure $_GET['api'] is _only_ numbers,
then you can use
if(!isset($_GET['api']) || preg_match('/[^0-9]/',$_GET['api']))
{ echo 'API is not all numbers'; }
or
if(isset($_GET['api']) preg_match('/^[0-9]+$/',$_GET['api']))
{ echo 'API is a number only'; }

Now I m perplexed time 10!
I run the code that follows this time providing a query string
of admin_template.php?api=101
I have an if statement that tests if $_GET['api'] == 0 if it is
true I have it listing options, else it queries the database with that

However it does not seem to execute the else
I: thought that the value may of been wrong so I usedecho

Hmmm... I couldn't get SimpleXML to work with this data; maybe it doesn't
pick up attributes or that XML could be better formed???
I'm sure there's an XML way to do it, but if you don't find anything, here's
a quick way to match it with regular expressions.
?
$str =
file_get_contents('http://www.dhs.gov/dhspublic/getAdvisoryCondition');
preg_match('/CONDITION=([^]+)/',$str,$match);
echo $match[1];
?
Off topic, I was thinking this XML would be better formed XML as:
THREAT_ADVISORY_CONDITIONELEVATED/THREAT_ADVISORY_CONDITION
and then you can use:
$str =
file_get_contents('http://www.dhs.gov/dhspublic/getAdvisoryCondition');
$xml = simplexml_load_string($str);
but simplexml simply has one element, [0] = ELEVATED. You can't do $xml[0]
or $xml-0 (since $xml is an object), etc and you have to do
$threat = current($xml);
echo $threat;
You can cast $xml to an array, but that still doesn't seem very intuitive:
$a = (array)$xml;
echo $a[0];
I'm not an XML wiz by any means... is this just bad XML that SimpleXML is
handling the best it can or is SimpleXML acting up?? If it's bad XML put out
by DHS, then I can pass some messages up the chain... :)

I was thinking of making an external file but was not sure if it should have just variables or should it have more? also, does the content of the external file need to be enclosed in ?PHP ?'s Thanks for your help Gary -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Multiple External Files with DB calls
I have a question, what happens if there are multiple 'required' and 'included' files that have calls to the same DB via the same username and password (they even use the same variable to call)? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
