Good idea!
I hear MIR is for sale. This could make a good PHP random function, one
that always works! Let's pool our resources and get on it. Great thing
is, no need for these mysterious seeds.

I have an account on JTLNET ...
I have decided to install Phorum (from Phorum.org), but this requires
the
scripts to be run inside a PHP CGI wrapper ......
JTLNET although supporting php very nicely indeed, do not provided
CGI Wrappers for scripts... hence if i were to run the scripts, i would
be
doing so as 'nobody' and this won't do!
My question is, what are the possible solutions to getting around this
problem?
Would moving all the scripts into the CGI-BIN that they provide and
sym-linking
to them fix the security hole?
Thanks in advance..
Jon
Hi folks,
Seen this discussed on here a bit in the past, so I hope someone
remembers and can help me sort of quickly before I go nuts, declare
victory and move on to another problem :)
My regular expression abilities are ... limited. This is what I'm
trying to accomplish:
An input buffer to a function will consist of a chunk of HTML code.
This code includes the use of stylesheets, generally in the form
of "<SPAN CLASS='something'>text here</SPAN>".
I'd like to find a regular expression that'll match each of these
occurrences within the text, thus allowing me to pull out "something"
and "text here". (Why do I want to do this? To convert the style
sheet into <FONT FACE> tags... its neccessary, if ugly. :\).
Any help would be appreciated, thanx!
Jason

Why do we ask rhetorical questions?
Well, now that I finally got your attention, you perhaps
might be able to help me!
Just wondering why nobody ansered yet: Is my
question to hard to understand or is the issue
to complicated....???
--------------- original message ---------------
Please help! Perhaps you have an idea what to do:
I want to get information directly from sendmail,
like the body of the message and, very important,
the receipients address.
So if someone sends an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I want to see who it was sent to.
Currently I am using a script that is triggered
by an alias in /etc/aliases. Problem here is, I
only get the header but no more information. This
script isn't intended for one single user but for
a whole domain, purpose is for messaging. So I
really don't want to create a login for every possible
name as I don't know the names before. You have
to think of this like a short messaging service
where you send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
with 0123456789 beeing the phone number of the
subscriber.
The above mentioned script gets the emails' contents
from stdin but fails if e.g. the mail is sent as
a blind copy (BCC) or if multiple receipients are
listed in the header!
Do you have an idea for me? I was thinking about
the mailertable, to do something similar as you
do when you set up an UUCP account for a whole
domain, but I don't know where I can interface.
So, any ideas are highly appreciated!
Thanks,
dk
If you set it up so that every incoming mail to your domain ends up in one
account, use the imap-functions ( compile them into php if not already done
) to open a stream and fetch the data. The "TO" header should be in there
somewhere and contain the original data.
Could be run from cron at a regular basis.

Hello!
I am having a problem when people copy and paste text inside a TEXTAREA in a form that
contains double quotes ' " ' .
The first file is a simple form. The second one is a php script that treats the data
from the user and stores in a MySQL table. Onyone has any ideas? I need to use
javascript to treat the variables before I execute submit?
Thank you,
Rom
Have you tried looking at addslashes() ??? Or am I not understanding the problem
here. Just remember to deliminate the "'s and ''s before entering them into the
db.

Either your header files don't match the installed GLIBC version or
libresolv.so.1 was compiled against a GLIBC version other than the
installed one.

search the array and return the page title. now - how do i do this with an
array? I know that i've seen it done like aboutus.php:About Company or
something. Its hard to explain - can anyone help me?

How about __FILE__ ? ;)
Note: it's a constant, so make sure you don't try to use a $
before it

uh,
while I agree that including your html is definitely the way to go, you
_must_ mix php with html to a certain extent, assuming you're actually doing
anything interesting like talking to a database.
if you're _only_ including files (i.e. using php as a replacement for SSI) I
guess that would work.
but, so long as the php code is _extremely_ light, and the logic is stored
elsewhere, sounds good to me :)
definitely avoid print() and echo like the _plague_ for html output.

hey robert,
have a look at binarycloud, with form builder, we take form input, check it,
and return errors with the same form, input there and everything.
if you want, you can have it do fancy stuff like carry over elements on
multi page forms (a person forgets fo fill out one elemtn on a page, instead
of sending them back to that page - we just say "oops, you forgot to put in
your name" and give them the form element. etc)
soon, form building will allow you to define all of your elements for a form
in xml, and attach "rules" (bits of php code that can filter input, or check
that one element equals some other value, etc) to form elements.
it's working really well for us, and soon it will be working ridiculously
well :)!

Hey Everyone,
I'm working a project for one of the company's websites. they have a subscription
mailing list that the user signs up their email address to receies periodical
emailings.
The email addresses are stored in a flat txt file. 1 email per line. I could also
convert it to a coma delimited txt file if it would be easier.
So, they've had problem with people who no longer want to receive emails, and one's
that bounce for whatever reason, generally a bad email address.
What I am trying to find out if who has some information to set up a system where we
will send out our emails to the subscribers with our mailing list manager. when i
customer respondes with a certain command in the body or subject (like unsubscribe) or
if the mail bounces, I'd like it to search out the email address and delete it.
Now, I know there's lists like majordomo that do something similar. But I'm looking
for something a little more straightforward.
I also know this may be more along the lines of shell scripting, but I thought some of
you ingenious people may have already done something similar or have some ideas on
where to start. thanks.
Sure - I did this with qmail. In your .qmail file or any file that passes the
incoming mail to /dev/stdin you need to pipe it to a php script. It will look
like this:
<?
$fp = fopen('/dev/stdin','r');
while(!feof($fp))
{
$line = trim(fgets($fp,4096));
if(ereg("^From:",$line))
{
// example of parsing out the From: header
}
}
?>
I had email addresses setup like ezmlm -
ie [EMAIL PROTECTED] or on the other hand
[EMAIL PROTECTED] - then just parse out the
To: address and replace the = with a @ (dashes as well with something else) and
remove the email.

hi Guillermo,
as part of the binarycloud error handling infrastructure, we capture all
errors on a page (that and sql queries + apache environment) and provide a
module that you can (optionally) have print all of that stuff in your pages
in an easy-to-read table. it has helped us quite a bit, because we show all
php and binarycloud system errors related to a page.

hi Brandon,
we use php's session handing functions to set cookies, they are obviously
hashed, etc before the values are sent.
as part of the authentication system, we check to see that the user's client
matches the last access with that session id, if not, we request a sign in.
if you're not talking about authenticated pages, (which you probably aren't
for a basic shopping cart app), we handle all of that stuff transparently.

I've adapted a session management script I found on
www.phpbuilder.com for storing session info in MySQL, but
I'm wondering about "garbage collection". Does the system
do the garbage collection itself somehow, or should my
sess_open function call sess_gc directly?
I noticed that when I invoke session_destroy(), the session
row for that id remains in the database - but the session
data associated with that session id is gone. Is that normal?
I almost expected the whole session row to be removed,
especially since the sess_destroy function does actually
does a DELETE FROM. I don't quite understand how this is
working.
Is there some documentation somewhere on the "user"(database)
functions for a session management in a database, like what
each function is expecting, and what each should return, and
when each one is called???
TIA.

Don't reinvent the wheel. It will take you longer to write it than it will
to learn to admin majordomo or any of 10 other programs like it.

well, the fact of the matter, is that we will not be sending the mail from

sent to a specific email address, which resides on the server. the resources
are not available to use to send out that volume of custimized emails.
i may go that route, just for the sake of ease, but what we really need is
much simpler in form. only needs to remove email addresses from a file.

I notice this is kinda getting pushed towards other
directions and the reasons for keeping the direction asked
for seem to have merit, so...
It can be done, I'm sure, but you'll have to sit down and
design it... you'll probably be better off using a package
that already does such things. You've got to figure out how
the script will be called, how it's going to determine what
address to remove, and how it will remove the address
(probably the easiest part).
That's pretty broad... and probably a day or two worth of
work, with chances for bugs, etc...

Is there a decent scp for windows? In particular, is there one that
could be run through a browser?
What Nando2 probably wants is the normal HTTP upload, but over SSL. Use
that SSL only if the contents of the files need to be protected, because
of the overhead it adds. If the contents don't need to be protected, a
good sessioning system (with the HTTP upload) would probably work.
the people who make putty (my favorite ssh client for windows) also make a command
line scp program. this could be included as an exec() in a script I would think...
Yeek! Not quite what I meant. I don't think that web servers have any
business being on windows boxes. I was wondering if there were a way to
upload using something like scp from a windows (or other) browser to a
unix server.

Either it's not the first, or it's pretty old news...
And if it's the same old virus from before, the referenced article didn't
even bother to describe the virus and how to detect remove it, which other
articles have done -- They just hawk their wares.
Search the archives for "PHP Virus" and you're bound to find much better
references to what it's all about.
Oh yeah -- You'd pretty much have to install the virus yourself for it to
get onto your server... Last I heard, it had spread to two (2) machines.
:-^
While I don't want to downplay the importance of security, nor negate their
claims of future risks, it's a pretty uninformative article.

we chose metabase for binarycloud (www.binarycloud.com) specifically for its
maturity, relative simplicity, and the incredibly cool XML schema thing,
which has saved me countless hours of crapwork :)
I think PEAR's db class will eventually be good, but for now metabase beats
is simply because it is _far_ more mature.
I would recommend using metabase for your projects, I'd also recommend using
binarycloud (we use metabase for database abstraction, and have a bunch of
other code for building php apps)
both will save you many hours of work :)

just name the submit:
input type="submit" name="credit_card"
and
input type="submit" name="dealer"
that's easy to capture.

Humm... that's a bit difficult. There are easier solution:
1) Get your users to learn and usr SCP :) (not likely :))
2) Get a better FTP Server. There are better FTP servers out there other than
Wu-FTPD :). Try Pro-FTPD
3) SSH server to forward the FTP port (21). This will pass the "command" channel of
FTP ie the username
and password part of FTP process to SSH. But all other command like actual files
transfers etc. will not
be encrypted. And as I recall the FTP clients will have to always use passive mode? or
the other one I can't
remember.
4) Run SSL on your server. This way you can just let your user use your PHP scripts to
upload files
Otherwise, it'll be pretty difficult to get PHP to work with SSH.

Actually, the pages I've been working on lately have been so code-intensive
I've found it easier to echo/print the HTML, especially as not that much
has been generated.
When I turn PHP on and off I tend to have "OOPS" scenarios, and have to go
searching for the previous "?>" or "<?".

Ah yes, but even that goes back to the Learning HTML days. "When you
open a tag, immediately create the closing tag."
Out of habit, you'll eventually stop making that mistake.
Likewise, if you get into the habit of doing <? ?> or ?> <? in tandem,
your worries will soon disappear.

P.S. a decent editor that has *good* syntax highlighting (Ie.

There are more differences between PHP and Perl than this.
Anyway, mixing PHP and HTML ties you HMTL rather firmly to your
PHP-Code and you will never be able to let anyone who doesn't know PHP
edit you design, which tend to be a bad thing since many
PHP-programmers don't like to design and most designers don't know PHP.
You get the most readable (smallest, in this case) code by generating
the HMTL in special functions calls, or by including you HTML. There is
no need to have that nasty HTML bloat your actual code, is there?
Ever heard about templates? This way, even a dumb designer who can't do
more than click-and-point can edit your design.
I, personaly, never found any use for having HTML and PHP highlighted
in the same file and am pretty contenc with emacs cc-mode or that
php-mode I got somewhere, which both don't do that.
There may of course be cases where nesting PHP in HMTL is useful, but I
can't think of too many of them now and never encountered one.
Especially with bigger projects, it definately is not the way to go.

Sanity is calming, but madness is more interesting.
Does anyone around knows the regular expression that matches all the
ocurrences of a word (p.e. "needle") not within PHP code, i.e., outside the
<? and ?> tags?
By the way, is there a good online tutorial or reference on regular
expressions?
Thanks a lot.
I reconfigured php with ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/etc/mysql
--with-apxs=/usr/local/etc/apache/bin/apxs and apache will no longer start. I removed
the path from the mysql to get the webserver back up but my question was why would it
not be able to find libmysqlclient.so.10 (error down below). The file is located at
/usr/local/etc/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10 ... any reason its not picking up
the fact that its there when I pointed it to the directory I told mysql to install to?

I don't know if this is your problem for sure, but here goes..
configure says:
for i in lib lib/mysql; do
str="$MYSQL_DIR/$i/libmysqlclient.*"
for j in `echo $str`; do
if test -r $j; then
MYSQL_LIB_DIR="$MYSQL_DIR/$i"
break 2
fi
done
done
if test -z "$MYSQL_LIB_DIR"; then
{ echo "configure: error: Cannot find mysqlclient library under $MYSQL_DIR" 1>&2;
exit 1; }
fi
So it's checking /usr/local/etc/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.* and
/usr/local/etc/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.*
And it didn't spit out:
"configure: error: Cannot find mysqlclient library under
/usr/local/etc/mysql"
Right?
Then it obviously found it, which prompted you to start Apache.
SR> Cannot load /usr/local/etc/apache/libexec/libphp4.so into server:
SR> Shared object "libmysqlclient.so.10" not found
Try sticking the path to that library (/usr/local/etc/mysql/lib/mysql) into
ld.so.conf and run ldconfig once as root.
Then build php with mysql support again and start apache.
I find myself saying this a lot <g>, but see if that fixes it.

I know this is kinda silly. but, if I have the following, will the file
only be included when the case is matched or does require always bring in
the file regarless?
case blah:
require('include.php');
do something....

Pretty sure it depends on whether your file system is case-sensitive. If
you're on Windows, it's not; it Unix, it is.

That is *supposed* to be the way it works. That is *supposed* to be one
of the differences of require() and include(). You'd use include(),
for example, within a conditional.
I can only speak for PHP 3.0.18, but yes. require() includes it
regardless. include() only includes it if 'blah' is met.

'require' ALWAYS includes the file; 'include' is what you want here.
The tradeoff is that include is slightly slower. For more info, see

require includes the file BEFORE any processing is done - so yes it will be
included - you need to use include() instead.

Hi, I'm involved in a conundrum that is a little difficult to explain
with plain English. Perhaps some PHP code will help you understand
what I am attempting:
#Option 1: code I wish worked
$s = include("phpcode.php");
#Option 2: also code I wish worked
$s = sprintf("%s", include('template.php'));
Basically, I'm wondering if there is a way to redirect print and echo
output from PHP to a variable instead of directly to a browser or
file stream. What I'm trying to do is create code that can generate
an HTML page to a variable that I can manipulate and then later store
in a database.
Obviously, the "real" way to do this is to not use print() statements
at all, but simply build a variable as follows:
$output .= "<html> yadda yadda yadda";
$output .= sprintf("More html and function output %s", function());
until the $output contains the entire file.
The reason I don't want to do this is that it will require rewriting
all my PHP file templates.
Also, I'm simply obsessed with the problem now. I even went as far as
using eval() on the reading of an fopen(template.php) of the PHP
template, but even then I couldn't assign the output to a variable.
Anyone want to kill themselves trying? My head hurts.
Sincerely,
Kristofer

Why this??? It's redundant, isn't it? Wouldn't
$s= implode("\n", file('template.php')); do it?

Gfunk, and Mr. Murray,
I guess I didn't write my query very clearly. What I am looking for
is not just storing the PHP in a variable (that, as you both have
pointed out, is easy enough), but I want to EXECUTE the PHP script
(including it's print statements and everything) and instead of
having that output go directly to the browser, I want it to go to the
variable. The solutions offered certainly do put the PHP into a
variable, but it doesn't execute the PHP and have the output of the
executed PHP get stored into the variable.
Thanks for familiarizing me with implode(), though, as I'm sure to
use that often.
Sincerely,
Kristofer

Look into output buffering (ob_* functions). You wouldn't
want to do that with your whole script; but there is an
example (if not in the manual it's on zend I believe) so you
can assign the results (what would've been outputted to the
browser without the buffering) to a variable.

$s = system ("/usr/local/whatever/php/bin/php /path/to/your/file.php");
This should be what you're after. In PHP4 there _may_ be some way
to use the inbuilt buffering for that purpouse, but I doubt it.
Perhaps this could be added to the language? It would be a good
counterpart to eval()...

If the system() doesn't return something, try using the backticks (left of
the 1
key) like so:
$s = `/path/to/php /path/to/yourfile.php`;

Specifically, ob_get_contents().
Start an output buffer, include your files, get the contents, and
ob_ed_clean. Ought to do the trick.

Like when you have to to run a thousand of functions and IFs for then output
it all in a simple $message to send as an email?
then just use $staff .= whatever();
assign everything to one single variable and use it later on.
$here .= from_there(); is the method to do that.
Did I understand you your question well?

sorry, btw about my wraps. vi, pine and I are having a bit of a
disagreement at the moment and I keep forgetting to hit return.
Hi,
I'm new to PHP so I thought someone could give me some advice on this one:
I'm creating a shopping cart, which is nothing but an array within a
session variable. Adding products to my cart works fine. But now I want to be
able to change certain fields in my already filled array, e.g. the amount of
one article or maybe delete one entire recordset. Is this possible? I have PHP
4.0.4 installed on my system running apache.
Thanks
Kersten

Mr. Lerdorf, Mr. McClahahan, Mr. Butzon et al,
Thank you for your replies. It appears I'm going to have to see about
having my server upgraded to PHP 4 in order to solve the problem, as
PHP 3 does not support ob_*().
If anyone else is paying attention to this thread, please be advised
that ob_ functions require PHP 4.
Thanks to all who have helped.
Sincerely,
Kristofer

This string contains a newline... You need \\ on each of those, or just use
/ and I think it will make everybody happy.
There are settings in php.ini for that, I think...

I don't think it looks for specific HTML tags to strip.
Anything that looks like <xxx > or </xxx> is going to get yanked.
In other words, it strips *EVERY* HTML tag, no matter how obscure.

be sure you don't output *anything* before the session_start()
or session_register() call. They imply sending a cookie header to
the browser, and having something already sent means the headers cannot
be sent anymore like in:
Content-Type: text/html
<html>
output already here
Set-Cookie: foobar=baz;
^... cannot see this as a header, cause it's in the body of the response.

Hmmmm...
I dunno how IIS does Virtual Hosting, but maybe you could have a different
php.exe in a different directory for each site, and a different php.ini
sitting next to each php.exe...
IE:
C:/
/InetPub
/site1
/site2
/php
/site1
/php.exe
/php.ini
/site2
/php.exe
/php.ini
You'll somehow need to convince IIS to use the two differing copies of
php.exe, and they'll snag the php.ini sitting next to themselves.
Just be sure you don't have php.ini in your Windows and System folders or
anywhere else.
No promise this will work, even if you convince IIS to run the two different
php.exe... but it should if you get that far.
Most dbs use "localhost" for that, and the database username/password that
is configured into the database software/tables...
I know nothing of Interbase, but that's how all the others work...
If "localhost" doesn't work for the host, try "127.0.0.1"

I doubt it...
On busy servers, those files must get so huge, there's no way Apache can be
trying to keep it all in RAM.
So, pretty much, Apache logs it and forgets it.
The only place that data exists is in the log file...
Unless you hack the Apache logging routine to send it to your database or
something else instead... I guess you could do that.

I'm a trifle confused...
Exactly how do you know that the person is the same person *withou* using
one of POST/GET/Cookie?
Since the database lives on the server, and the client only talks to it
through HTTP, and HTTP is stateless, I'm not understanding what you're even
trying to describe..

Not only does php run as wwwrun, it also runs with a different shell,
environment, and most notably path than you do when you log in.
You should probably just get in the habit of providing full paths to
system/exec for any binary or file involved.
If the shell scripts are relying on the current working directory or other
environment variables, you'd better be sure you have them set up.
You can use PutEnv() in PHP to set them, or alter the wwwrun user's
.profile/.bashrc or whatever it is using, if it even has one...

exec("C:/program files/whatever/full/path/something.exe", $output, $error);
while (list(,$line) = each($output)){
echo $line, "<BR>\n";
}
if ($error){
echo "OS Error $error. Usually path/permissions.<BR>\n";
}
If the exe takes args, just tack them on after .exe:
$arg1 = 'foo';
exec("C:/.../something.exe $arg1", $output, $error);
You can have your HTML buttons choosing what to run by making the exe path a

You want to read about "PEAR".
How the functins you describe will be any more secure than using
http://php.net/mcrypt or exec() to call gpg, I don't understand at all...
*WHY* not use auto_increment?
Would the builtin http://php.net/uniqid function not work better?
*NEVER* seed the random number generator more than once per script. Call
srand() once, and only once.
The return() statement will return the MySQL resource ID, which is probably
not useful, but all the other variables will be forgotten so I think
whatever pointer and loop position 0 you mean will be reset-- assuming all
this is in a function.
You are limiting yourself to 99999 - 10000 records, which is pretty small.
Basically, you almost for sure are making your life difficult and should
just use auto_increment.

You could save yourself a whole lot of headaches by putting the files in the
file-system, and storing only the path in the database...
Also, IE and Netscape use different things to populate the filename box on
the download dialog...
One uses Content-disposition header(), and one uses whatever happens to be
at the end of the path part of the URL.
Thus, a goofy path like:
http://wild.net/display.php/goofy.gif?id=42
(Where 42 is a GIF image of Goofy)
actually works.
The web-server and PHP ignore that goofy.gif crap, and the browser is fooled
into thinking you're downloading a static file.

One last thing worth mentioning is the truth value of expressions. In many
events, mainly in conditional execution and loops, you're not interested in
the specific value of the expression, but only care about whether it means
TRUE or FALSE (PHP doesn't have a dedicated boolean type). The truth value
of expressions in PHP is calculated in a similar way to perl. Any numeric
non-zero numeric value is TRUE, zero is FALSE. Be sure to note that negative
values are non-zero and are thus considered TRUE! The empty string and the
string "0" are FALSE; all other strings are TRUE. With non-scalar values
(arrays and objects) - if the value contains no elements it's considered
FALSE, otherwise it's considered TRUE.
</snip>
Since variables doesn't need to be declared it's regarded as set when used
in an expression... hence $a is evaluated to "", or 0 if compared to
numbers, false if compared to boolean.

What is bothering me is the following: if variables that are not assigned
a value were to evaluate to false then since false is the same as the
number 1 the following PHP script should print the number 1 but instead
prints nothing:
<?php if (! $a) print $a; ?>
How is this behavior justified?
I could not find anything on this in the PHP manual.

Yes this works. I can see that IE5 does not cache the page locally,
by looking in Temporary Internet Files.
I realize now though, that what I really need is to drop certain pages
out of the browser "back" chain.
For instance say I have three pages:
A --> B --> C
Once the user selects page C, I don't want them to see page B with the
browser back button. If they use the back button, I want them to jump
from C all the way back to A.
IOW, I want to "unlink" B from the chain. Is that possible?

How cn I make the following code set a cookie for vars username and
password??
<?php
$auth = false; // Assume user is not authenticated
if (isset( $PHP_AUTH_USER ) && isset($PHP_AUTH_PW))
// Connect to MySQL
mysql_connect( 'localhost', 'root', '*****' )
or die ( 'Unable to connect to server.' );
// Select database on MySQL server
mysql_select_db( 'cfsforums' )
or die ( 'Unable to select database.' );
// Formulate the query
$sql = "SELECT * FROM user WHERE
username = '$PHP_AUTH_USER' AND
password = '$PHP_AUTH_PW'";
// Execute the query and put results in $result
$result = mysql_query( $sql )
or die ( 'Unable to execute query.' );
// Get number of rows in $result.
$num = mysql_numrows( $result );
if ( $num != 0 )
// A matching row was found - the user is authenticated.
$auth = true;

Hi,
I've been looking on the cool web, but up till now I got only complex
explanations about how to create users in mysql.
I know it's more a MySQL question, but since lots of you are using this
DB, maybe someone can just send me an example on how to create on a
proper way (straight forward) users. The meaning is to consolidate the
DB like:
$connection = mysql_connect("localhost","nobody","dummy")
or die("Couldn't connect to server.");
$db = mysql_select_db("searchDB", $connection)
or die("Couldn't select database. Mysql said: "
.mysql_error());
I tried to add a user with password and host in the myql database and
supposed to be able to use thatone for the searchDB database?
Hope this doesn't sound to stupid at all!
Thanks a lot for any trick or usefull example!
Yoeri.

Hi list,
this is not a problem, but a nice feature of OOP, I found today. Maybe it is
useful for someone:
<?php
// class test
class Basis
{
var $name = "Basis";
function Basis($typ = false)
{
switch ($typ)
{
case "A":
$this = new Basis_A();
break;
case "B":
$this = new Basis_B();
break;
}
}
function print_name()
{
echo $this->name . "<br>";
}
}
class Basis_A extends Basis
{
var $name = "Basis_A";
}
class Basis_B extends Basis
{
var $name = "Basis_B";
}
$my_basis_1 = new Basis();
$my_basis_2 = new Basis("A");
$my_basis_3 = new Basis("B");
$my_basis_1->print_name();
$my_basis_2->print_name();
$my_basis_3->print_name();
?>
The point is, that the class morphs itself into another class in the
constructor.
Hope it helps someone,
Moritz.
Is it possible to have a "php" executable to generate static pages instead of using
the apache to generate the dynamic pages every time a connection is received?
I would like to have a serer with static pages and recreate them using xml/html every
time there is a change...

The DCOM (COM on a remote server) works fine but you still have to run PHP
on a windows machine. AFAIK there's no decent way to use COM from a unix
box.

Below is my code. I am uploading an image and a zip file only I want to make
it insert nopic.jpg if they don't upload an image. When I change
if($fileimage== "none") { to
if($fileimage== "none") {
$FileImage = 'nopic.jpg';
}
else {
$FileImage = $fileimage_name;
}
I get error can't upload "none" Is there a fix for this?
----------------------------
<?
if ($FileType== "none") {
print "ERROR! - You must specify a File Type before we can begin the
upload.<BR>";
}
else {
if ($filezip== "none") {
print "ERROR! - You must specify a zip file to upload.<BR>";
}
elseif($fileimage== "none") {
print "ERROR! - You must specify an image file to upload.<BR>";
}
else {
copy($filezip, "/home/sites/site1/ftp/$FileType/$filezip_name");
copy($fileimage, "/home/sites/site1/ftp/$FileType/$fileimage_name");
unlink($filezip);
unlink($fileimage);
if($filezip_size >= 1048576)
{
$filezip_size = round($filezip_size / 1048576 * 100) /
100 . " Meg";
}
elseif($filezip_size >= 1024)
{
$filezip_size = round($filezip_size / 1024 * 100) /
100 . " Kb";
}
else{
$filezip_size = $filezip_size . " Bytes";
}
$FileDate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
}
}
?>

You could split the one big include file into several smaller
conceptual-based include files. Ie. put related functions together in small
groups and then only include the files containing the functions you need.

*simple* ????
I have PHP running nicely on a Pentium 90 with 48MB RAM which also
happens to be the file-/mail-/smb-/cvs-/... server in my house. So don't
worry about your "simple" notebook being too slow :)

Hello,
I am doing file uploading of only jpg file format, It first copys in tmp directory
then I copy it in main.... well you all know the procedure... neways what I am
concerned is how can I check that the file in temp is correct file and is safe for me
to copy it in the main folder?
Regards
Statbat
if(ereg("jpg|jpeg|gif$",$userfile_name))
{
do something
}
else
{
this file is not allowed
}
This will check that the uploaded file has the correct extension.
Where $userfile is the upload field name in the form

$userfile_type
contains the MIME-type of the file. This is maybe more relieable then just
the extension...

Hi everybody.
I can't seem to find the way how to connect to my mail server from php
scripts.
I have wu imap daemon running with only imap accounts - no pop3.
I have compiled php (4.03.pl1) --with-imap=path_to_wu-c0client-files,
but I always get this error: "Warning: Couldn't open stream
{mail.wittmann.sk:143} in /home/httpd/html/webmail/mailbox.php on line
13"
Line 13 is:
$conn = IMAP_Open("{mail.wittmann.sk:143}", $jmeno, $heslo);
can anybody point me how to solve this? Thanx
