No, they're using a meta tag in the head section.

Not all browsers support this, so authors should provide an alternate means of moving to the new page where necessary. The Refresh header is sometimes used for splash screens or when a page has moved, but the technique is not very effective since users may not even be looking at the window that is to be refreshed and since it messes up the user's history on many browsers.

I don't think this is much of a problem. I unset() all the global session

Even if an attacker tries to set some value for a script variable, this var
will be unset() and then read from the session, so no harm is done.
On the other hand there should be no probelem to change GLOBALS to
HTTP_XXX_VARS.

All inputs (GET/POST/COOKIE) from users must be checked if you worriy

The reason why I recommend to set register_globals=off, is it's a lot
easier to write secure code with register_globals=off.
Yes I know, but if those scripts are going to be used on different servers,
with differnet type of php coders, you can't be sure what is the value of
register_globals (actually, some scripts need it to be on). So it is a little
work, but you can be sure that your script will work everywhere.
Basically it is a good idea not to write scripts that depent on php's
settings to make sure that they'll work everywhere.
Take for example the value of magic_quote_gpc. To be sure that your script
will work correctly, don't assume that it is alywas on (or off). So
you can write
if (!get_magic_qoute_gpc()) addslashes($var);
or write a function myaddslashes that does the same thing.
I also recommend you use error_reporting=E_ALL, since it seems you
care about security. Scripts that I write will catch all
error/warning/notice as fatal error and displays a page telling There
is critical error. Details are sent to system administrator. They
catch most of errors including malformed user inputs, system errors
like cannot open connections, etc and display appropriate error page.
They never raise any PHP error/warning/notice unless there is
something really wrong.
Thanks of this tip :-)
By the way, my codes posted at zend.com will not catch all errors. I
didn't put complete sources there. It will be too long for an example
:)
:
But as i've said this isn't a problem. Can you see some way to

eval() function ?
I cannot tell if your script is exploitable or not.
Just too little info to tell that.
Is this staement safe ?
eval('$a = $GLOBALS[pass1]==$GLOBALS[pass2]');
I've tried different kind of inputs to execute arbitrary php code, but found
no such exploit. Maybe you can see something that I can't.

Maybe I'm missing the point, but why not just go:
$a = $GLOBALS[pass1]==$GLOBALS[pass2];
I'm writing a form class which can also validate the form and I want to
define the rules for validating the forms, so when defining the form I can add
$form-AddRule('{pass1}=={pass2}','The 2 passowrd must be equal');
And this rule will be expanded to
$a = $GLOBALS[pass1]==$GLOBALS[pass2]
and validated through eval.
When I call the
$form-validate();
The class iterates through the rules array and in case of unmet condition
(!$a) will return the error string associate with the rule.
This method gives a great flexibility, ans as a result I can define any rule
as long as it is a valid php code.
Hope you get the idea

You lose the usefulness of just including $DOCUMENT_ROOT/yourfolder/yourfilename. This is the main reason that I do put my files in the root web directory. So how do you tell all of your files where your included content is? Do you hard code the path in every page?

If not, do you always change the include strings by hand every time you move from one environment to another? Do you run into these problems? What kind of solutions/workarounds have you implemented? I have always used this style of including documents because it enables me to do my mockup ideas on my Windows machine with PWS. Then I can move onto my Linux test box and try the site in my home account. Then I can push the exact same code to the dev server which uses www as the root web directory. Then I can push the exact same code to the staging server for clients to see which has wwwroot as the root web directory and the live environment mimics the stage environment so that move makes little to no difference. Now if someone else was working on the same project and checked the files out of CVS they would have to tweak their copy to work in their special environment instead of just running and developing the files. This just seems like a whole lot of extra work to me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only way anyone can see the source code of a php file if the extension is associated with the PHP interpreter is if you provide a phps file that they can see or if someone uninstalls the PHP interpreter (which bypasses the situation because the first condition is no longer being met).

Also you can have some kind of object support in it to inherit tables for example), but it's windows implemenation is very hard (at least for me, I like to compile it). Postgres also has a nasty show-stopping bug they don't seem to want to fix. Try making a stored procedure with many parameters, and send a single null to it. I dare you. I so love having all of my other parameters, and the return value of the function turned into null because postgres can't tell where a null occoured. I don't like stored procedures, or functions in any programming language that accepts many parameters, and I avoid the as much as I can. Those things are hard to debug and write (hmm, what paraemeters should go here ? :-( ) and they hinder the readability of the code. As for null values, I don't use them as well, I work with different databases and each one has their quirks about null. Basiclly null is undefined and should stay that way. Usually I decide on an invalid value (such as -1) and pass it to the function. I also love the fact that you can't drop foreign keys, modify columns, drop columns without rebuilding the entire table, etc. We use it here, but it makes me want to pull my hair out. If someone would just combine postgres and mysql, we'd have the best database in the universe. Fast and stable, with all of the RDBMS anyone could want. Well I can do all of this in mysql because there's no referential integrity. You can't drop or modify a column which is reference by a foreign key, beacuse that would break the integrity. You don't need to rebuld the table, just drop the foriegn key and off you go. But as it stands, postgres is still a bit player with an incomplete feature set. But I don't want to start a holy war here, so I'll drop it. OK. As for speed both are very fast (even when compared to commerical DB, in my tests the deafult install of Interbase outperfomed the default install of Oracle 8i about 10X, tested on P166 with 96MB and PII400 with 192MB). This only occours if you don't know how to optimize Oracle. Oracle is *very* picky about *everything*. You need index tablespaces on separate disks from the data tablespaces, and yet another one for system tablespaces. You should also have one for archive logs, redo logs, and of course your temporary tables. Setting it to threading mode is also nice for connection pooling and to stop killing your machine under heavy load. That, and the machines you've quoted are in no way powerful enough for production Oracle databases, period. You should also run oracle on some kind of Solaris/Sun combo. Raw mount points direct to the actual disks is ideal, but loopback filesystems work just as well. Remember to cluster your raid into 4 - 6 arrays of 3+ disks, too. There is no such thing as a default Oracle install, because installing oracle on a single user machine with one disk and only a little ram (yes, anything under 512 is very little for Oracle) will make Oracle look like a piece of crap. The point about Oracle is that it *lets* you do all of those optimizations, and if you're good at it, it will outperform almost any other database you throw at it. Trust me on this one. Well let me see, 1. I have several databases to choose from, Which give me the performance I need. 2. I don't have to be a DBA to manage them, I don't have to use raids to get performance and I don't have to split indexes between hard disks to get adaquete preformence. 3. I don't a supercomputer and I can use them in moderate hardware for my needs, and I don't have to dedicate plenty of RAM to them. 4. This databases are open-source and don't have linking problems. Anyone tried to install Oracle 8.0.5 on Linux (patch-O-rama for Glibc). 8i is a resource hog (JVM in the database, are they nuts ?) and i won;t touch it with a stick, 5. I can expect this databases to work for me out of the box (out of the install in this case) 6. All this databases are free and I can choose the one I want according to the task I'm facing, without paying outrages licensing fee to Oracle, and spending lots of money on unnedded hardware. Isn't the choice obvious ? Why would anyone touch Oracle - I guess it is only because of their hype and spin - much like some other company I won't mention. BTW, I was in Oracle's OPP program for quite a while, but left it when 8i came out, it was an overkill. (But I sure miss those Oracle parties, They were outrages, or as one of their representives said to me, they had lots of money the needed to spend).

If "localhost" doesn't work for the host, try "127.0.0.1"

Subject: [PHP] ibase (firebird) localhost login ?
hi,
I know it's slightly off topic but i hope you;ll forgive me.
i'm testing interbase because someone on this list mentioned it would be
a
good offline database.
Interbase ('firebird') wants to connect to the local server (i'm running
WAMP - Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP), and interbase needs a username.
But its all local, not connected. So what should i tell interbase??
Chris
PS i AM currently downloading the manual but that will take another hour

MB, bad line, was interrupted several times )
