It could be possible to figure out what zone one is in via the
zone.tab file. It probably will be a lot of work just to figure
that out, not to mention you need to be able to find the
coordinates of the persons Country/State.

Of course, this only works assuming that the would-be hacker doesn't
know
HOW you are authenticating the file. If you are going to try this
method,
mix it up, use a rather unique variable name and or use a value that is
hard
to guess.

I often do it this way:
main.php:
<?
define('MyScript', '1.0');
include('file.php');
?>
file.php:
<?
if (!defined('MyScript')) die("Access denite");
?>
To hack this, the attacker needs filesystem access to your script - an if
this happens, that should be your smallest problem...

I have just started using mod-rewrite, and have two questions...
I see everywhere on the net that I can change file names to lower case -
at present they are an ex-Windows based mess of upper and lower. But I
can't see anywhere how to actually do it, just that it is possible.
Also, I use
RewriteRule ^comm/(.*).php /comm.php?C=$1
to change comm.php?C=abc to a more search engine friendly comm/abc.php.
But this leaves gives the effect of being in a different folder, and
relative URLS within that page no longer work correctly. Is there a
Clever Fix? Or do I have to change to absolute URLS? And if absolute
is absolutely necessary, should I include the domain name?

Wow - this is *really* spooky!
When I wrote that, with RewriteRule "relative URLS within that page no
longer work correctly", I had not realised that those within PHP worked
ok, whereas those in raw HTML didn't...

Yes it does! It aint off topic.
Pate is trying to figure out how to integrate mod_rewrite
functionality with his PHP scripts.
If you're new to mod_rewrite then you can use this alternative PHP
script that does the work for u. Here you go:

Ah well, I should just ask a question or two about how to integrate
mod_perl functionality then, eh? It's as offtopic as MySQL, JavaScript,
etc questions are on this list. There _are_ places out there were
mod_rewrite would be on topic, but this isn't one of them.

Is direct multi inhertance supported in PHP5?
I'm on PHP4, didnt find this on the docs nor at zend's. It might be
the reason of migrating to PHP5 for me. Any Idea? anyone who tested
it? by this I dont mean the chaining method of inheriting. I mean
direct multi inheritance!
Thanx in advance.

I believe so -- this was one of the new features of the object model
introduced in PHP5. My understanding is that you have to create
interface classes that a class can then implement. Unfortunately,
interface classes are abstract -- no code allowed other than
declarations.

I saw a number of mentions of it when PHP5 was first released, but the
only reference I can dig up now is at:
http://www.zend.com/php5/andi-book-excerpt.php#Heading3
and, unfortunately, when it talks about interfaces being how multiple
inheritance is achieved, fails to give an example.
Surely somebody has a more definitive answer, but I thought I'd give it
a shot.

Thanx Mathew
I guess I found it, it's disapointing though.
Here was the answer: http://www.zend.com/php5/andi-book-excerpt.php#Heading3
<Copied from the link above>
4. Interfaces
Gives the ability for a class to fulfill more than one is-a
relationships. A class can inherit from one class only but may
implement as many interfaces as it wants.

Hi Everybody,
I'm running php 4.3.2
When I run the following
$fname = tempnam('mytmp/', 'PREFIX_');
and then echo $fname, it returns
/tmp/FILENAME rather than mytmp/FILENAME
I'm running under RHEL 3 U3
Anybody know what's going on?
thanks,
Brent
