RE: [PHP] PHP as a web browser?
you may want to look at the curl functions as a start. thats most of the functionality down already. otherwise you'll have to parse raw data. not too hard, but can be painful to keep stateful info. you'll also have to rewrite code when the interface changes, you'll probably want to look at hotscripts or manuel lemos's script archives for prewritten html parsers. fopen/fread/fwrite is the way to go, but you'll need to interpret that data accordingly.

Return into an array, then loop through the array or shuffle it (easier)?.

mysql_fetch_array
?php
mysql_connect ($host, $user, $password);
$result = mysql_db_query (database,select user_id, fullname from table);

while ($row[$j] = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {

Subject: [PHP] display query results at random
How do I return a specific record from a db outside of the query?
Let's say I select * from table (using mysql_fetch_object) and get 5
results. I want to display the 5 results in different / random places
on the page.
Place 1 - show details for record 3
Place 2 - show details for record 1
Place 5 - show details for record 5
How do I do this?
I know how to loop thru a mysql result - but what if want to display
things in a random order around the page? I could have multiple select
statements - but this would increase the load on the server and is
unnecessary as all the data was returned from the query - it's just a
matter of knowing how to get it!
Can anyone help?
I am sorry if the question is confusing, but I can't think of a better
way to explain it at the moment (i'm tired)...

RE: [PHP] Mysql check
Another thing to check
Are your table(s) corrupted?
From the MYSQL Manual
Typial typical symptoms for a corrupt table is:
You get the error Incorrect key file for table: '...'. Try to repair it
while selecting data from the table.
Queries doesn't find rows in the table or returns incomplete data.
Do a
repair table (tablename) or
isamchk {table name} ... or isamchk *.ISM
For MySQL 3.23.x use myisamchk instead of isamchk
If isamchk reports any problems or recommends fixing that table, repeat
isamchk with a -r option on that table to repair. During the repair,
isamchk will do its best to repair any corruption without losing any data,
but there are no guarantees.
I would also recommend dumping the data out, and putting into another table
to see if it occurs with a fresh table.

limit the return page value after a certain number (say 10) to every 5

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ..15 ..20 ..50 ..100
This can be done relatively easily

Subject: Re: [PHP] limiting rows and pages like google
It's not too hard to do the next/previous through all your results, as
has been shown by several people. What is a little trickier, at least
when using mysql and trying to take advantage of the limit clause, is
how to display how many results you have (ie 1 to 10 of 107 results). If
you use the limit, you can't get the total number of rows, without doing
a second search sans limit. It's also harder to do the next link,
because you don't necessarily know if there are any more rows (imagine
you are displaying 10 rows at a time, you are on page 3 and there are 30
total rows). Conversely, if you do a single query without the limit,
then you're doing a slower search (limiting a search is way faster), and
I'm not sure of the implications of the full result set residing
serverside - maybe higher memory requirements. So what do people do to
take advantage of limit? Two queries or a single query? Any other
solutions? Any more insights on how limit works?

RE: [PHP] Performance: PHP vs. Visual Basic
It may not be a performance thing based on software in use, it could be coding problems with the current software. If you are having problems with 40 - 50 users, you may want to look at where things are locking up. Table locking because of badly designed update queries can freeze a good system because of contentions. How do you handle concurrent locking - what does your code look like for the initial 20 seconds to load page / slow loading pages? Run some performance monitoring on sql server, it has good tools for this, as does win2k. How much ram do you have? sql server eats ram. (buy more, depending on whether your monitoring tells you its needed - look at paging). There are lots of nt tuning faq's out there. Check what you have before dumping it for something else. I learnt from someone once its better to find out and understand the problem than to avoid it. It may come back and bite you. That said, php is more scalable than vb (flamebait), but its equally easy to write bad code in both. SQL Server is a bit of a behemoth, but feed it nicely (ram), and it generally behaves (*unless you are russian nuclear materials database admins - see slashdot for more.)

RE: [PHP] limiting rows and pages like google
2 queries is ok imho, but let the database do all the work ;)
The first query should be a select count (*) QUERY for a count.
The second query should be the actual QUERY.
Eg something cut 'n' pasted from some code of mine (not nice, but hey ;) )
--
$db = mysql_connect($db_domain, $db_user,$db_password);
mysql_select_db($db_databasename,$db);
$sqlwhere = where CuisineID = $CuisineID ;
$numresults=mysql_query( select count(*) from restaurants . $sqlwhere);
$numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults);
// get results
$sqlstring= select ID, Name,LanguageID from restaurants . $sqlwhere .
limit $offset,$limit;
$result=@mysql_query($sqlstring,$db);
//Do stuff with $result...
// calculate number of pages needing links
$pages=intval($numrows/$limit);
// $pages now contains int of pages needed unless there is a remainder from

RE: [PHP] Re: Mailing list
Should be relatively easy. Its going to take 2 steps. Send out one of the images with a unique id per mailout, this could be the users email address if you wanted to tie in the data per user (may be illegal in some countries without users permission). eg first mail html bla blah img src=webbug.php?id=1 /html next mail html bla blah img src=webbug.php?id=2 /html ... webbug.php webbug.php will passthrough the image that you want to send - phpbuilder, webmonkey, and hotscripts all have sample code for this kind of thing online. Make the php script pass through the image to the browser (remember to set the relevant content type header), and count the unique id in a database (i think due to image reload, count unique id's returned rather than number of reads) eg if user 1 reads email database should add user, count=count+1 to database for user reply read stats do a select count distinct (user) type sql query. This is called a webbug usually, most spammers use something like this. Remember not everyone reads mail online. So this technique will not work for offline mail readers, and those who don't use html compatible mailers. Also some email program's will autopreview mail, so a returned id, doesn't necessarily mean that the user has read it, only that their mail software has. No code, just theory here, but should be relatively easy to implement. Lawrence -Original Message- From: Richard Lynch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: September 12, 2001 12:51 PM To: Sheni R.

RE: [PHP] hi
It still won't work though.
(unless show_source is javascript, which I doubt)
You can't embed php in html like that. HTML is for client side, and they
aren't running php in their browser. Browsers generally support javascript
or vbscript ECMA style scripting on client side.
If you wanted to show the source for something you can't write a one line a
href, you'll have to make it some code.
eg.
sourceme.php
?php
show_source('source.php');
?
myhtml.html
a href=sourceme.phpView Source/abr/br/

RE: [PHP] Problem with microtime()
You are casting microtimes results as an integer value. It isn't an integer
value, hence the 0.
From the manual It returns the string the string msec sec where sec is
the current time measured in the number of seconds since the Unix Epoch
(0:00:00 January 1, 1970 GMT), and msec is the microseconds part. This
function is only available on operating systems that support the
gettimeofday() system call.
Try:
for ($i = 0; $i 100; $i++) {
$k = microtime();
echo br$k;
for ($j = 0; $j 1; $j++)
$m = $j *3;
}
Or look in the http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.microtime.php for
examples.

[PHP] Session Problem
I can't get session variables to work
I know this has been done to death in the past, but I've looked on php.net,

My php session settings are as follows:
NameLocal Global settings
session.auto_start Off Off
session.cache_expire180 180

RE: [PHP] hacks we should know about
my 2 cents Anyone with a clue doesn't use /etc/passwd anymore *shadow password file*, so thats kind of depreciated... Your php process should not be running as root - typically you will give apache its own group, and apache + php will only be able to access files which that group has permission for. If you are running IIS on Windows, you are pretty screwed. More holes than a sieve. Change to apache or zeus. .htaccess files or apache.conf can set .inc or other files not to be passed to the webbrowser. You can set it to be restrictive, so only files you specify can get opened in a browser. turn off directory browsing in apache for directories without a default page. any data passed via the browser interface is suspicious. sanitize it for your data. eg if expecting a numeric value, check its numeric and zero it if not. error checking in the code is good, but try not to show too much info about the server. initialise all variables before using them. (in case someone passes something via get/post that may get used). if you use any common scripts, change the default passwords - there are a gazillion sites out there with the default script passwords out there. use an include file for database access passwords. keep this out of the webserver directory if possible. eg (sample example, not a functional one!) website is in /home/website /home is out of webservers directories. db.ini saved in /home ?php $db_pass=my password; $db_user=username; ? myphppage in /home/website ?php require /home/db.ini; mysql_connect ($db_pass,$db_user); ? common sense gets 99% of things. If the usual holes aren't there the script kiddies will go to another site with more holes. Don't forget to also keep up to date with recommended patches for your OS. Bugtraq.com and securityfocus.com are good places to keep up with both ends of the stick. -Original Message- From: Bob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: August 17, 2001 11:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] hacks we should know about hi i found it very helpful to know about hacks such as the below list and was wondering if anyone had any more dumb mistakes they could tell us before we make them. 1. http://www.somesite.com/source.php3?url=/etc/passwd 2. http://www.somesite.com?page=../../../../etc/passwd 3. not setting .inc files to be parsed by php 4. setting directory ownership to nobody _ Do You Yahoo!?

http://www.somesite.com?page=../../../../etc/passwd
Originally written for a directory browse script i use for a /pics directory
on www.shanghaiguide.com/pics
I used to use realpath, but it started working differently on my box in the
4.0.6 release, so I wrote this
function TruePath ($path){
//Not really optimized but it does work.
$patharray = explode (/, $path);
$path=;$count=count($patharray);//We have multiple count($patharray) so a
minor bit faster.
for ($i=0;$i$count; $i++){
if ( $patharray[$i] == . || $patharray[$i]== .. || ( (($i+1) $count)
($patharray[$i+1]== ..)) ) {
//If the current pos is a . ignore, if pos+1 == .. ignore, lastly if current
= .. ignore.
}
else {
$path .= $patharray[$i]./;
}
}
//Trim trailing slash
$path = substr($path,0,-1);
return ($path);
}
May or may not be useful for someone. I welcome an optimized one using a
regex, this was my non regex attempt ;)

This is the wrong solution to securing include files. The correct
solution is to block any direct access to .inc files by either putting
them outside your document root or by using an Apache deny rule.

RE: [PHP] a bit off the list but should be easy
Most people do it like this Specify the charset in the document. e.g. Simplified Chinese meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=gb2312 Traditional Chinese meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=big5 You can also specify the language type in the web server - have a look at your apache settings. Doing it via the charset= method is better though imho. Note that the download font thing is Internet Exploder Specific. Internet Exploder also has a few issues with different charsets. Also note that *all* html documents should have a specified charset - even the plain english ones. Most of the html on the internet is coded wrongly, this does not make it correct.

Well, It seems your web server is setup not to parse .html files as php If you are running apache, then add configure it to correctly parse the ?php in all files. php.net has ample doc's about that, as does apache.

RE: [PHP] ----- BEING AN ASS CLICK HERE NOT ABOVE!!!!!
Kyle, Apache runs as a background program. When you've installed apache, and php, you don't actually run them from the commmand line. What you have to do is open up a browser window, and point it to your computer. Open up Internet Explorer (you're running windows it looks like), and type in http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost This should bring up a screen saying you've installed apache correctly. If apache is installed in the default directories, then most likely you'll need to put some webpages into c:\apache\htdocs I would recommend making a file called test.php with the following lines in ?php phpinfo(); ? Save it into c:\apache\htdocs now go to your webbrowser, and go to http://localhost/test.php If php shows the phpinfo screen then you've installed everything correctly. If it doesn't work, we'll need to look at your apache settings and php settings. Try the stuff above first, then tell me what happens.

RE: [PHP] MySql help #1
Sounds like a strange request, what are you trying to do?
I don't think you can do this directly in mysql, but you could build an
array of results in php.
eg something like (crappy code below)
//Grab results
$db = mysql_connect($db_domain, $db_user,$db_password);
mysql_select_db($db_databasename,$db);
$sqlquery=select ID from table1 where condition1;
$result = mysql_query ($sqlstring,$db);
$count=0;
while ($resultset = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {
$array[$count]=$resultset [ID];
$count++;
}
for ($count=0;$count2;$count++){
update table1 set field='VALUE' WHERE ID=.$array[$count];
$result = mysql_query ($sqlstring,$db) or die (mysql_error());
}

RE: [PHP] MySql help #1
Have you thought about your database design carefully?
You might want to create a column for item count
eg
id, item name, items in stock
1, frog, 7
if, say a customer orders 3 frogs, decrement the items in stock by 3.
Just an idea...
Do you know about database normalization? How is the database designed?

Kyle, Apache runs as a background program. When you've installed apache, and php, you don't actually run them from the commmand line. What you have to do is open up a browser window, and point it to your computer. Open up Internet Explorer (you're running windows it looks like), and type in http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost This should bring up a screen saying you've installed apache correctly. If apache is installed in the default directories, then most likely you'll need to put some webpages into c:\apache\htdocs I would recommend making a file called test.php with the following lines in ?php phpinfo(); ? Save it into c:\apache\htdocs now go to your webbrowser, and go to http://localhost/test.php If php shows the phpinfo screen then you've installed everything correctly. If it doesn't work, we'll need to look at your apache settings and php settings. Try the stuff above first, then tell me what happens.

RE: [PHP] Hmmm?
I presume you mean code layout
Its there to make code easier to read.
eg some silly code
for ($x=1;$x100;$x++) {
while ($i50) {
print $i;
}
}
This is more legible than
for ($x=1;$x100;$x++) {
while ($i50) {
print $i;
}
}
Indentation makes it easier to spot where your code constructs - if ,switch,
while etc start and end.
Hope that explains it a little. Do a search for code layout in google, and
read up on it, and check out a few examples. There are a number of coding
styles, find one that you like, and be consistent. Remember to also comment
your code, as well as making it presentable. If you look back at old code
in a few years time you'll be grateful you did.
Cheers,
Lawrence.

Bear in mind that you don't want to be doing queries like that generally.

RE: [PHP] fopen not opening url
Are you still having problems?
Things to try:
1. Try and open the url directly in a browser.
eg http://p.moreover.com/cgi-local/page?c=Music%20business%20newso=xml
Does it return data (you may need to change the o=xml to o=html though).
Some countries (like the one I'm in China, have moreover access banned via
some providers)
2. socket blocking - you may need to enable or disable this dependant on
your server settings:
set_socket_blocking ($connection,false);
function LoadFile ($filename,$block=false){
$fd = fopen( $filename, r );
if ($block) set_socket_blocking ($fd,true);
$contents = fread( $fd, filesize( $filename ) );
fclose( $fd );
return ($contents);
}
Without socket blocking
LoadFile
(http://p.moreover.com/cgi-local/page?c=Music%20business%20newso=xml;);
With socket blocking
LoadFile
(http://p.moreover.com/cgi-local/page?c=Music%20business%20newso=xml,true
);
3. I use something like this for reads on difficult servers (some china mail
servers are a p.i.a to get at sometimes).
Function GetLine() {
$timeout=30;
$iStartTime = time();
set_socket_blocking($this-connection, false);
$line = fread($this-connection,128);
while(empty($line)){
$line = fread($this-connection,128);
usleep(25);
}
if ($debug) {
print ($line) .br;
System(echo '');
flush;
}
return ($line);
}
Let me know how you do.
Lawrence.

RE: [PHP] OT--PHP, MySQL, WML and GPS Tracking
I'm of the opinion you cannot do this totally in PHP. You are going to need some client side, and some server side software - server side can be php of course. Client side ie (gps/wap device)- One possibility - write a wap browser that interfaces with your gps device and returns co-ords in header variables or cookies. (or post variables possible). you are either going to have to licence a web browser (or write on yourself, add in some extra headers in the software), for your gps/pda. This is most probably going to be an embedded system written in C or similar. 1.Its not as hard as it seems, there are open sourced browsers you can base it on. 2.It is possible inhouse, but from what you describe, but probable you want to outsource it. let me know if you need some more answers - i used to do embedded systems design in another life back in the good old daysgrin. -Original Message- From: John Monfort [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: July 26, 2001 7:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] OT--PHP, MySQL, WML and GPS Tracking Hello everyone, This is slightly off topic, but I'm sure you guys are the best group to answer this. I have a client who needs a wireless website, that interacts with PHP and MySQL. In addition to that, the client wants to be able to track the geographical location, of the user--who will access the site with a cell phone and/or PDA device. Basically, if someone from, say Los Angeles, access the website, we want to be able to (automatically) capture his/her location. This is for internal uses, so the PDA device will be uniformed. That means, I will need to integrate a GPS system/function in the wireless pages. Once the connection is made, I can use php and mysql to handle the rest. My problem is with the GPS functions. I've never worked with any GPS system, so I'm looking for advices, references, and general directions. 1) How do I track a user's PDA device (geographical location)? **- I know some of the WAP enabled phones (like the i1000 by Nextel) doesn't let you do that** **- I think there some legality issues around that, but am not sure. 2) Where can I read up on that? 3) Has anyone work with something on that level? If so, then please help. At this point, the PDA device has not been chosen. We are still in the research stage. As far as I know, Trucking Companies, uses this type of system to track their trucks and drivers. And, off course, any car with a Navigation System is using the same concept. Where can I get some information on this? Has anyone programmed anything related to Global Positioning Systems? If so, then I would appreciate any information that you can share.

IMHO
$query = SELECT shoodID FROM shoots WHERE location=\$location\;
and even
$query = SELECT shoodID FROM shoots WHERE location='$location';
sometimes cause SQL Syntax Error,
because the variable $location may contain quote characters (')()...
since i experienced the same thing i've been doing like this...
(the reason is just that i did with 2 byte japanese characters?)
$query = sprintf(
'SELECT shootID FROM shoots WHERE location=%s',
AddSlashes( $location )
);
going well, but is this code too ugry?

RE: [PHP] Syntax Eyes
Almost, but not quite. You also need to prepend a Header before any output your data to tell the browser its content type. Eg ?php Header(Content-type: image/jpg); ...rest of output code ? -Original Message- From: Mark Roedel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: July 26, 2001 12:02 AM To: Clayton Dukes; Php-General Subject: RE: [PHP] Syntax Eyes -Original Message- From: Clayton Dukes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2001 10:42 AM To: Mark Roedel; Php-General Subject: Re: [PHP] Syntax Eyes I have a row in sql that is binary data (a jpeg) I need to echo that data to a table on the web page in the form of the original jepg, when I echo it now, I just get the actual data stream.

RE: [PHP] how do you write queries in php codes? (was Re: [PHP] Why doesn't this simple query work?)
Its however you prefer it (or whatever is easier to type usually).
sprintf is usable, depends on if you have a c or perl background, and its
second nature.
For me, I use editplus on windows which gives color coding
(www.editplus.com), if I do
$query = select abc,def,ghi from table1,table2. $another_table . where
abc='. $a .';
I can immediately see the $another_table, and $a are variables.
Use a color coded editor - it makes life a lot easier.
Lawrence.

Subject: [PHP] how do you write queries in php codes? (was Re: [PHP] Why

yes,
both of yours make the same result too, and are clean :-)
and i wonder what the best way is, to put queries into php code...
there's a more complicated sample,
$a=addslashes($a);
$b=addslashes($b);
$c=addslashes($c);
if( $another_table ) { $another_table=','.$another_table; }
$query = select abc,def,ghi
from table1,table2 $another_table
where abc='$a' and def='$b' and ghi='$c' ;
and i prefer because i often confuse php variables with columns
if( $another_table ) { $another_table=','.$another_table; }
$query = sprintf(
'select abc,def,ghi
from table1,table2 %s
where abc=%s and def=%s and ghi=%s',
$another_table,
addslashes($a), addslashes($b), addslashes($c)
);
but i think the latter loses some good php features...
then, does anyone have good idea?

RE: [PHP] OT--PHP, MySQL, WML and GPS Tracking
Probably necessary to have a customised browser or other solution - i haven't seen any that explicitly interface to a gps device for lat/long co-ords. You cannot triangulate position using wap - the phone company does it by triangulating the position of the cellphone (Very simplified explanation here) GSM cellphones transmit a 'i am here' signal every few seconds, minutes etc (dependant on phone settings) It waits for a response from a cell tower, the strongest one to respond is used. On some nokia phones (and motorolas) you can turn on the engineering menu to have a look yourself. The phone company can look at the celltower stats and work out from response times what cell you are in. By using triangulation they can pinpoint you down. This is not available for the general public though. I haven't worked with GPS devices so I can't really point you at any people - garmin is a big name though. I do know some gps devices have serial inputs for reporting position, you could write code interface to that and use some method to transmit that info back. WML is not the only solution. CDPD is also available in most countries. I use that here in China for internet on the go. For low bandwidth solutions, its not too bad. You could possibly end up with a iPaq or similar, a GPS module for that, and a wireless modem for your solution. Would be expensive though, and does incur monthly costs. Not sure what your application is, or volume though.

The embedded C option sounds tempting. Question: Is it necessary to have a customized browser? I know that most WAP browsers (like the UP.SDK browser) pass certain parameters to the server. Like, phone numbers, software version, and other values. Any chance that one these parameters could be the Lat/Long coordinates? (I don't think I've ever noticed that). How does the phone company triangular a cell pone user? Is anyone aware of a customizable GPS system? Or, any suggestions on GPS developers? I've noticed quite a few companies, but most of them focus on automobiles, and other large devices. The GPS device is too large for our purposes. I am familiar with Embedded C...with the right direction, I can probably put the browser together. But, I'll research the option of a third party browser, or outsourcing a customized browser.

You are going to need some client side, and some server side software - server side can be php of course. Client side ie (gps/wap device)- One possibility - write a wap browser that interfaces with your gps device and returns co-ords in header variables or cookies. (or post variables possible). you are either going to have to licence a web browser (or write on yourself, add in some extra headers in the software), for your gps/pda. This is most probably going to be an embedded system written in C or similar. 1.Its not as hard as it seems, there are open sourced browsers you can base it on. 2.It is possible inhouse, but from what you describe, but probable you want to outsource it. let me know if you need some more answers - i used to do embedded systems design in another life back in the good old daysgrin. -Original Message- From: John Monfort [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: July 26, 2001 7:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] OT--PHP, MySQL, WML and GPS Tracking Hello everyone, This is slightly off topic, but I'm sure you guys are the best group to answer this. I have a client who needs a wireless website, that interacts with PHP and MySQL. In addition to that, the client wants to be able to track the geographical location, of the user--who will access the site with a cell phone and/or PDA device. Basically, if someone from, say Los Angeles, access the website, we want to be able to (automatically) capture his/her location. This is for internal uses, so the PDA device will be uniformed. That means, I will need to integrate a GPS system/function in the wireless pages. Once the connection is made, I can use php and mysql to handle the rest. My problem is with the GPS functions. I've never worked with any GPS system, so I'm looking for advices, references, and general directions. 1) How do I track a user's PDA device (geographical location)? **- I know some of the WAP enabled phones (like the i1000 by Nextel)
RE: [PHP] Headers
To emulate a post you'll have to do something similar to the following
header POST /index.php3 HTTP/1.1;
header Host: $host;
header Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded ;
header Content-length: . strlen ($data);
header Connection: close\n\n; //may only need one, can't remember if
header postpends \n
//Now print variables
//var1=informationvar2=more
//for each var to submit
header $$var1=$var1$$var2=$var2;
or
function PostToHost($host, $path, $data_to_send) {
$fp = fsockopen($host,80);
fputs($fp, POST $path HTTP/1.1\n);
fputs($fp, Host: $host\n);
fputs($fp, Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n);
fputs($fp, Content-length: .strlen($data_to_send).\n);
fputs($fp, Connection: close\n\n); fputs($fp, $data_to_send);
while(!feof($fp)) { echo fgets($fp, 128); }
fclose($fp);
}
$host = cgiserver.x.com; // target server
$path = /cgi-bin/target.cgi; // cgi's name
$string = value1=value1value2=value2 ; // There can be more value
PostToHost($host,$patha,$string); // call the function
Cheers,
Lawrence.

Header () is for altering the HTTP headers sent back to the browser. Read
some HTTP intro. Regarding your problem - have a look into sessions. they
might be what you want.
