Hi,
I'm getting an error trying to install PHP 5.0.2 on a fresh Fedora Core 2
installation:
"Sorry, I cannot run apxs
apxs was not found"
I verified this by searching the drive, it is not there. Is Apache
installed by default without using --enable-so ?
If so, what can I do?????
Thanks,
Don

Thanks so much for the insight which is a much simpler way.
I successfully set up a test page (a form) that takes email to, from,
subject and body and sends it.
<?php
$emailto=$_GET['emailto'];
$emailfrom=$_GET['emailfrom'];
$emailsub=$_GET['emailsub'];
$emailbody=$_GET['emailbody'];
$headers = "From: <$emailfrom>\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: <$emailfrom>\r\n";
if(mail($emailto, $emailsub, $emailbody, $headers)) {
echo"Email Sent";
exit;
}
echo "Email Error";
?>
However, when I send a message to subscribe to the EZMLM list, it sends
ok, but doesn't get added to the list. When I send a test message to
myself I noticed that the Return-path in the email sent is not what I
set in my script, but that of the apache user. I wonder if that is
where the EZMLM-sub gets the address for submission and is sending the
confirmation to the dead mailbox.
Any insight?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,
I'm writing a little script (my 3rd) that takes name (first, last)
and email address
and writes it to txt file and submits the email address to an EZMLM
list server.
All is well but I'm not sure where to go for the submission.
The command line - ezmlm-sub works (from the shell)... if the user is
root or vpopmail.
Is there a safe way to run the shell command via a php script?
Or can someone suggest another way to submit an address to ezmlm.
You can make use of the public interface to ezmlm-sub by sending an
email to <listname>[EMAIL PROTECTED]
You'll need to set the 'From:' header of your emails to the address of
your subscriber.
You can find information on the mail() function at

Hey everyone, I'm trying to delete multiple records from a database using
PHP. I have a file list page which shows each entry in the database with a
checkbox next to it. At the bottom of the page is a "Delete" button. A
user should be able to check as many items on the file list and hit delete
which would cause all checked items to be wiped from the database.
Unfortunately I'm running into really erratic behavior with this. First the
page worked fine on Mac(in the Safari browser) but not on IE on any OS.
Now I can only delete the first time in the list but ONLY in Safari once
more.
As far as the code goes what I'm doing is retrieving each record from the
database and assigning the "value" attribute of each checkbox the unique id
from the database. From that point on, when a checkbox is checked and the
delete button is pressed, I push each checked unique id into an array and
then call a function that cycles through the array and deletes each database
entry. The last step is a simple page refresh. I'm posting some of the
more relevant sections of the code I've used below:
echo "<form action=\"{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}\" method=\"post\">";
//form declaration
echo "<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Delete\"value=\"Submit\">";
//The delete button
<td><input type=\"checkbox\"
value=\"{$row['upload_id']}\"></input><br/></td>"; //This is what the
checkbox is coded as
$stack[] = $row['upload_id']; //This should get pushed into an
array called stack when the delete button is hit(and it does when I echo it
out, so this part works)
echo "</form>";
if (isset($_POST['stack'])) {
deleteFiles(); //This checks to see if the array stack is not
empty, and if not it calls this function which is declared as shown below.
}
function deleteFiles() {
foreach($_POST['stack'] as $i) { //This should work but I can't
tell if it is or isn't
mysql_query("DELETE FROM uploads WHERE upload_id =" . "$i");
}
header("Location: http://"; . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //forces a
page refresh to show the file list without the items that were deleted.
}
I appreciate any help I can get on this.
Thank you
Adil.

For sanity of your mysql database, you might consider making this one
query.
Something like
DELETE FROM table WHERE id IN (32,34,46,432,35);
generating your list of numbers/ids from your array...

This is your problem, you need to give the checkbox a name:
<input type="checkbox" name="stack[]" value="...">
When the form is submitted $_POST['stack'] will contain an array of
items that were checked.

Thats different than what you originally had:
$rs->rows[0]->fields = $rec
php is being friendly and creating an object before assigning the
variable (to a non-existing array element). The error you are
getting is because you have E_STRICT included in your
error_reporting level.
;E_STRICT - run-time notices, enable to have PHP suggest changes
to your code which will ensure the best interoperability
and forward compatibility of your code

$rs->rows[0] = new stdClass();
$rs->rows[0]->fields = $rec;

Can this be done when the file already exists?
cleong at organic dot com says
29-Mar-2000 04:36
rename() doesn't seem to overwrite files on NT. The behavior is an
OS-dependent side-effect I guess.
on the PHP site @ http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php
So this this true, or is there some work around that doesn't involve
unlinking the file first?
Thanks!

PHP General List,
I am trying to use mkdir() on a shared unix server to create a
directory within my home space. I have to have the ability for my
user on this server to upload to this folder, however I think that
mkdir() creates the directory and makes it owned by the process
running Apache -- nobody, httpd, or apache depending on the system
(which is someone else's so I don't know)
I get permission denied when I try to upload to these folders.
I suppose I could use mkdir and specify the mode as 0777 to give
broad write access to these folders, but I always thought this was a
security risk.
Does anyone know how I can create a directory which is owned by my
user account on this server-- or have any other creative suggetions?
Thanks.

If you have it, use FTP.

That's incorrect. The
sendmail_path =
setting is very much a un*x only setting (although for most standard server
setups you never need to change it).

Maybe that's why the OP asked? Anyway I don't see the reason why one would
want a patch. Surely bandwidth can't be an issue? And applying a patch would
most certainly mean taking the webserver offline briefly as would a full
upgrade.

4.3.8 -> 4.3.9 is not a security fix, i.e. there are no security holes
closed in 4.3.9. From the 4.3.9 announce:
"PHP Development Team is proud to announce the immediate release of
PHP 4.3.9. This is a maintenance release that in addition to over 50
non-critical bug fixes, addresses a problem with GPC input
processing."

Any help with this would be appreciated.
I am trying to come up with something that will find which variable(s) have
the lowest value and inidicate which variable this is. In the event that
variables have an equally low value then it is to randomly pick one of the
variables and idicate which this is.
I have been able to do this by means of if comparisons but the more I
variables I add then the more complicated and messy it becomes. There has to
be a simpler way. If it makes any difference, the variables could just as
easily be array elements.
example:
$a = 2
$b =2
$c= 4
$d= 5
$e=6
$f =7
the code should determine that $a and $b have the lowest value, and randomly
pick one of them. if $a was = 1 instead then it would just pick $a
Thanks for any suggestions!

So stick them into an array and use one of the many array functions.

The "randomly pick one" part you would have to code yourself.

Thanks guys. Yes I figured using an array and the MIN function would be a
start.

There are several JavaScript solutions for validating forms on the
client side. Search on hotscripts.com and google.com.
Client-side validation (in the browser) is useful, but you shouldn't
depend on it to guarantee that the data that your users submit is
valid. You should also validate the data in your PHP script as you
process the form.
Oh, and there are several PHP-based list managers available, for
instance phplist, so you may not need to program it yourself.

don't have much experience on this. I am thinking using a form validator
but not sure where I can get it.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Nope, no go...but dont worry about it, most of the PHP
gurus on the list have not replied so I guess it was
beyond them too....so where do we mere mortals have a
chance :-D
Will leave it as as for now and come back to it at a
later date i guess.
Thanks for trying.

Good Evening:
I would like to know if it is possible to add text over an image. If
so can someone please help me with it?
Here is what I would like to do. I currently have a "random masthead"
that I pull from my database (the location of the image is stored
there with other info such as credits and description)
I would like to overlay on top of the Masthead the words
"Administration Mode" without me having to create a duplicate copy of
the original mastheads and save them again... I would like to be able
to just have a bit of code that would add on top. I ask this because
I have too many masthead options right now that it would be infeasable
for me to create duplicates of each one to just add Administration
Mode as an overlay.
Thank You.

With PHP, use GD to print your text on a copy of your image.. Look at
the image functions in the manual:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php
- Or -
With CSS, use "background-image" to load the image behind your text:
#header {
background: #90a090;
background-image: url('/header.jpg');
}
<h1 id="header">Administration Mode</h1>

I am running into a problem with user input when a user inputs a single
quote in the form field, such as entering O'Brien as a last name. When the
user enters this, PHP adds a \ in front of the single quote, and then if the
form is submitted again, adds a \ in front of the \ and again in front of
the single quote. Example:
<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="lastName" VALUE="$lastName">
if the user enters a name containing a single quote, such as O'Brien, it
becomes
<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="lastName" VALUE="O\'Brien">
Upon submitting the form again, it become
<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="lastName" VALUE="O\\\'Brien">
Any ideas on dealing with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm having a bad day with sessions which hopefully someone can help me with.
A user logs in to my 'site' (script1.php) and I store relevant details in a
session, all fine. I redirect to another page (script2.php) which checks and
retrieves certain session values, all fine. My problem is with script3.php
which happens to be within an iframe in script2.php. When the user is
automatically passed to that page, from log in, the session details are not
available but if the user makes a (menu) selection the session values are
available to script3.php within the iframe. help !
Simplified code:
script1.php
<?php
session_start();
[some code]
$_SESSION['user'] = $_POST['user'];
[some code]
$hdr = "Location: script2.php?".SID;
header($hdr);
?>
script2.php
<?php
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['user']))
Header("Location: ../index.htm"); << Does not redirect.
[some code]
<iframe name="content" src="script3.php">
Your browser does not support the use of frames.
</ifame>
[some code]
?>
script3.php
<?php
session_start();
print_r($_SESSION); << outputs Array()
[some code]
?>
If you need any specific info on my config just ask and I'll try and supply
it.
TIA
Graham
