[PHP]IE6 back button problems
Here's a puzzler, I've searched the archives and couldn't find a satisfactory answer, and it would be nice to have one in the archives. I'm working on a web app that draws a search screen with fields coming from settings in a database. When you do the search, it works fine, but in IE 6 on WinXP when you hit the back button it loses the user's form field entries. This is not true of IE 5 on the mac, Safari, etc. I've tried all kinds of tweaks to the settings in IE6's internet options to no avail. However, I think it is too simplistic to say that it is just the browser, because IE6 maintains form field entries when using the back button on some sites, like google. All pages in the web app force a refresh by sending these headers: ##Header Info to force refresh header( Last-Modified: . gmdate( D, d M Y H:i:s, filemtime( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] ) ) . GMT); header(Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate); header(Cache-Control: post-check=0, precheck=0, false); header(Pragma: no-cache); ## I've tried commenting out some or all of these to no avail, it still loses the user's form fields. HOWEVER, I also tried setting a test session variable to something in the search results page, and when you hit the back button in IE6 if you echo that variable on the search page it echoes the NEW value; other browsers it does NOT. So IE6 is requerying for the page without resort to a cache, while the others are using cached pages. All the header code hooie doesn't seem to affect any of this when you are talking about the back button.

Re: [PHP] arguments against moving site from Linux/Apache/PHP server to Windows/IIS/PHP needed
If you have to move to Windows, at least use Apache. I note in my server access logs on my Windows test machine that people are trying to hack in every day and I have a very obscure site just to test my own clients' web apps. It always looks like some kind of super long url trying to do some kind of vbscript or something. Apache of course just spits it right out. I can't even IMAGINE having a real IIS machine open to the internet for a real site. Its just not done. Don't let them, you are their last hope; they know not what they do! Which opens to the notion that Apache isn't really meant for windows, and Linux or OS X or BSD or ANY unix is simply more stable and secure. It makes business sense to use them because over the long haul you are going to spend less time cleaning up after hackers, less time cleaning up after crashes, etc. It is pure lunacy to go from a successful linux site to a windows IIS site. It will not be as successful. That said, with my low volume site, apache on windows server 2003 and even win XP professional have run very nicely. That might be a nice compromise for them.

[PHP] php arrays into flash
I know a lot more about php than about flash (which is probably sad) but does anyone know how to take info in an array and pass it into an array in flash? I think they have arrays, but the only thing I can seem to find in flash to get info from php is the loadvariable actionscript step. I looked around via google and I couldn't find anything within a reasonable time that seemed to answer this question.

Re: [PHP] Synchronize MYSQL
From Paul Dubois's MySQL book: If you are dumping a database so that you can transfer the database to another server: (on the unix command line or in a shell script) % mysqladmin -h boa.snake.net create samp_db % mysqldump samp_db | mysql -h boa.snake.net samp_db the first command obviously creates the db, the second dumps the data to it. You can also take the update log which records deletes, inserts, updates, etc. as SQL statements, and pipe those to another MySQL server in a similar manner.

Re: [PHP] Re: php editor?
on mac OS X, BBEdit color codes php, perl, shell scripts, SQL, and HTML, and does regular expression searches/replaces etc. across multiple files and also cleans the dishes. Its definitely my favorite text editor. jim mcneely On Monday, June 16, 2003, at 10:49 AM, James Hatridge wrote: Hi John et al,, On Sunday 15 June 2003 02:09, John Nichel wrote: Linux I use Quanta.

Re: [PHP] Re: Using register_globals
I'm a bit of a neophyte with php, and I've read through lots of prior posts and the php.net online docs, but some of this is still not registering in my head. TIA for your patience. I've got a script I include at the head of each of my scripts that checks $_POST['username'] and $_POST['password'] against a database, and exits to an error page if it doesn't check out. Every link is a post where it passes these two values. So if you open any page in the whole thing it has to have the actual value of a real username and password or it exits to an error page asking for these values. This seems to have been working fine, but when I installed a newer version of php it started making noise about register globals being off. Upon further reading, it seems SESSIONS are insecure, COOKIES are insecure, POSTS and GETS are insecure. It seems to me that you would have to write some exceptionally stupid code for these things to be really openly insecure, so I must be missing something. After a point it seems like if you leave your machine off or disconnect it from the network that would be the most secure but you have to pass this info somehow. What is the accepted practice for passing user info into variables? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
