I think there's some useful info here (about doing it with "just Apache"):
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/ssl/ssl_howto.html

yuck
recommend insuring this is at the top of your page and using header() instead
appears seamless to the client

and would eliminate that as well
-Start of file--
https://www.example.com/page.ext";);
exit;
}
# rest of page here since if it isn't secure the page stops at the exit after
the header has been sent to the browser to redirect.
?>
-end of file--
Check your particular server response for the match, you may be able to just do;
if (!$_SERVER['HTTPS']) {

You want to check wether the server variable HTTPS is set or not.

That should work. Or you could echo the META redirect if you wanted to
display a page, but this should do it transparently. There is probably a way
to do it with just Apache, too, that wouldn't involve PHP.

John, PHP-general,
OK. I think I understand this, but let me ask just to be sure.
So if I setup in my page something to this effect:
if ($_SERVER['!HTTPS']) {
echo "Switching over to SSL...";
echo "";
} else {
echo "**Rest of Page**";
}
Would this work? I am about to add a secind site to my site using an alias
in Apache. Example is http://www.mysite.com for first site and
http://www.mysite.com/2ndsite. Except I want everything for the second site
to be https. Make sense?
Thanks again,

I think it's $_SERVER['HTTPS']. If that is set, then the connection is over
SSL.

Re: [PHP] Can php do this?
I've followed this with interest, but unless you specifically need some
properties of PHP to do this, use an easier tool.
Python has modules for both MySQL and PHP. They are easily invoked and
don't involve calling Lynx & feeding it the script.
Here's some code, you might want to think about it as an alternative. I
hope the indents preserve, as Python reliese on indentation and a ends
it's line.

Thanks guys I just want to confirm one last thing, as it's been a while since I needed cron After I create this file (cron.file) for ex and use crontab cronfile (I do this as root, if it matters) do permissions need to be set? I really can't recall I would think that would do it as I am not uploading it and do it as root Thanks for the help, GREAT help and it's appreciated Now I just need to get freetype 2 installed right on my raq 3 and I can live like a king Joel

Another alternative is using wget on the URL, or links -dump if you have that instead. Or if your script has #!/usr/bin/php or whatever path at the top and is made executable, you can just call that script without relying on the webserver.

Re: [PHP] Can php do this?
If you have built the php standalone binary then its easy- #!/usr/local/bin/php What I do when I build php is build it twice. First I build it with all my options EXCEPT for with-apxs=/blah That builds the standalone binary, and I install that in /usr/local/bin Then, I build the apache module and install that where my apache modules go. This allows me to use php as a regular unix scripting language, so I can do stuff from the crontab. btw- I'm actually doing a very similar thing- I have some customer support software that pops my support e-mail address and puts the message in a MySQL database. I have a cron job that calls a php shell script that pops the e-mail for me every 15 minutes. That way I don't have to log on to the support application as often, and the customers get an automated response fairly quickly, giving them a unique case ID etc. On Sat, 24 Nov 2001 22:04:21 EST [EMAIL PROTECTED] mentioned: > Thanks for your time . *This* = create follow up autoresponders > Or at least have php run with cron, so I can daily hit a mysql > db and use php to email those people at a specified time, like > every 3 days.

It sure can. There's a couple of ways to accomplish this. I personally think the easiest way is to code your page like normal, then call it in a cron job via lynx. Let's say you have a page called "page.php" that connects to your database, retrieves the email addresses, and sends the emails. To call it from a cron job add the following to your crontab: 0 8 * * * /usr/bin/lynx -dump http://localhost/page.php > /path/to/logfile/or/dev/null Of course this means your script is in your public web space, so theoretically could be called by anyone who knew the name of the page. You could put the page in a subdirectory and add an .htaccess file that restricts access to only 127.0.0.1 to take care of that if it concerns you. If you have PHP installed as a CGI then you could also write your page as a shell script. As the first line of your script put the line: #! -q I haven't personally used this method because I have PHP installed as an apache module and I was too lazy to compile the CGI version.

[PHP] Can php do this?
Thanks for your time . *This* = create follow up autoresponders Or at least have php run with cron, so I can daily hit a mysql db and use php to email those people at a specified time, like every 3 days. Just so when I have users to the site who register and their name/email is in a table "users" in db "data", php/cron can be used to pull the name/email from mysql and (with unsubscribe message at bottom) email them when I say to do so in cron. Getting cron by itself to work is fine but with php script that connects to mysql and emails users? Can that be done? Sort of like cron doing what you would do if you visited page.php and once it's hit, it emails specified users in a database Would I need path to php in the cron script to do this? Or am I just living a dream? The idea of emailing users in a mysql db with php script every day is very appealing to me. (Yes, with unsubscribe feature) ;) Thanks, I hope to goodness this made sense and you enjoyed your holiday Joel
