Hello
I tried to used PHP with autentification....
I wrote script, but I had got error :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pam_auth() in
/usr/home/httpd/html/farm/dev/test/user.php on line 2
I read some FAQ and I found the answer:
....
For some reason, newer version of php4 do not always seem to properly update
the autoconf stuff when your run the buildconf script. If you get this
error, configure php again and then look through the autoconf output and
look for a line that says "Checking for Pam Auth support: yes". If you don't
see it, it isn't getting built in. To fix this, run the command 'autoconf'
in the top level php source directory, this should update the configure
script to recognize the pam auth stuff.
....
I was trying to configure PHP with "Pam Auth support", but I can't find this
opitions.
I looked all option from ./configure and there is nothing...
Server use FreeBSD 4.1.1

Try using the PNGs instead. They can get very small with good results.

Is there anything java servlets can do that php can't.
is there any pressing need for me to learn servlet
technology,other than to expand the old skillset.
the difference between jsp and servlets is that
with the former the code is embedded in the html.correct?
Adrian Murphy wrote:

Well I had to use a servlet because of it's threading ability once. Java
servlets are actual programs that can continue to run on the server. That
is useful when you need a threaded process for instance.

I send roughly 1M of these and put a sleep() (not usleep - that's microseconds)
into the while loop - I've come up with a decent balance that sends out a good
number (like 5000) and then sleeps just long enough to get them out of qmail's
queue, then it sends another 5000 (and so on).
Usually takes about 24 hours to send out 1M messages.

BTW when it sleeps PHP takes up no noticable resources. Also I'm running the
php binary to send out these messages (that way I can use screen and make sure
that my browser doesn't crash, os freeze, etc.)

hi,
thanks again. questions:
1. sleep(300) would mean pause by 300 mins, right? That's why i thought you
mean usleep(300) - 300 microseconds. please comment
2. what you mean is i will send 5000 emails, then pause and send again?
Thanks for your help.

No, 300 seconds - 5 minutes.
Chris
1.) sleep() is in seconds - plain old seconds - so sleep(300) == 5 minutes.
2.) yes - send, sleep, send, ...

For Canadian web developers, you might want to check out Magma in Ottawa.
They have great packages, fantastic connections, and offer great service
help.
Also, if you sign up more that 2 accounts, you can bill through YOURSELF and
make money... that is, if you develop for others, they pay you and then you
pay Magma a percentage.
IF you just need redirecting name servers, they can do that for $50 a
year... for $US, multiply by about .65 to .69...
I have also used Verio.com - formerly Tabnet.com (VERY fast connections) --
located in California... the packages are better now than when i started
using the service about 4 years ago.
take care,

No.
echo '<?' will ensure that the stuff is not parsed, but the browser will
not evaluate it (unknown tags are ignored). So < or echo '<' is
needed.

Well, I agree with the last comment on that page - Why should that be
added to the language if it's implemented in PHP with only 4 lines?

Hi,
We have a PostgreSQL and Php 4.02 preinstalled Cobalt RaQ4r server and I
want to manage PostgreSQL via pgPgAdmin. But when I try to login I got
error such as :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pg_connect() in
/home/sites/home/web/manage/phpPgAdmin/lib.inc.php on line 130
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At "Documentation.html" of phpPgAdmin there is an explanation such as :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
phpPgAdmin can't connect to PostgreSQL. What's wrong?
Either there is an error with your PHP setup or your username/password
is wrong. Try to make a small script which uses pg_connect and see if it
works. If it doesn't, it may be you haven't even compiled PostgreSQL
support into PHP.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So how can I login into phpPgAdmin ? Do I need to install any extra
support for PHP ?
Thnx !

Do you have PHP compiled to work with Postgres? Because thats what the error
message says. It says that pg_connect is not defined, which means you don't have
a postgres php.
recompile!!!!!

Hi,
I am running apache server as user/group=apache/httpd
And want to access the shadow file to authenticate my users from the system.
shadow file is owned by root and chmod to 400.
server-root:/5:28pm>ls -al /etc/shadow
-r-------- 1 root sys 27695 Feb 22 10:06 /etc/shadow
I can access the shadow from cgi-bin / c code by giving the chmod +s bit .
How can I access from my php codes.
Giving +s bit to the php source don't solve my problem.
Can you give me a solution or documentation about it.
Thanks for your advice.
Hi,
Why do you want to access /etc/shadow from your PHP?. As a general
rules of thumb that's a pretty bad idea. The reason for this is that
/etc/shadow is owned by Root and it's *should* only be readable by
Root
and noone else.
Now in answer to your question "Why your PHP" script can't read
/etc/shadow is that if you're PHP script is running as Apache module
(or even a stand alone CGI). Your User ID would most likely *not* be
Root.
Thus you are not allowed to read the /etc/shadow.
You are able to fix this by running the Apache process as Root!
THIS IS A VERY VERY bad idea but possible nonetheless as it is
a huge security hazard.
To configure Apache to run as Root, check out Apache doc
HTH.

I use the same to see if a file was uploaded, may not be the best, but it
works.
a simple class that I include works just as well as yours but it gives 4
decimal places on the seconds. one simple line.
$debug->time();
$debug->time('finnishing while statement');
<?php
function mtime()
{
$mtime = microtime();
$mtime = str_replace('.', '', $mtime);
$mtime = explode(' ', $mtime);
$mtime = $mtime[1] . $mtime[0];
return($mtime);
}
class debug
{
function debug()
{
$this->start = mtime();
}
function reset()
{
$all_vars = get_object_vars($this);
foreach($all_vars as $pos => $val)
if ($pos != 'error')
unset($this->$pos);
}
function time($text = '')
{
$this->break = mtime();
$time = ($this->break - $this->start) / 1000000000;
echo number_format($time, 4) .' '. $text ."<br>\n";
$this->start = $this->break;
}
}
$debug = new debug;

Hi,
I wondered if anyone knew what would be the better method to use to see if a
file has been sent/uploaded?
method 1:
if ($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name'] != "none" && $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']
!= "") {
method 2:
if (@$fp = fopen($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],"r")) {
method 2 seems to work better, and seeing as I have to open the file on the
next line testing to see if its there seemed the better way to do it?
How can I find out how long my scripts take to execute?
I'm currently using..
$stimer = timer();
// code ......
$etimer = timer();
echo "\n\nPage processed in: ". ($etimer-$stimer);
Function timer() {
$milli = explode(" ", microtime());
return $milli[0];
}
Which works but is their a better way to do it?
Thanks,
Matt
I have a problem with imap_open:
I can do imap_open on nntp server that has no authentication. But when i try on
a nntpserver that requires a password.. php dumps core (signal 11 gdb backtrace
is #0 0x0 in ?? ()) ( i executed the cgi version of php to be sure that apache
has nothing to do with it.)
i tested c-client with the mtest program and it worked perfectly.
I've tried to compile php4 with -enable-debug but i'm not so experienced with
gdb so when i load the core-file i still get no symbols or references to the
instruction that causes the problem.
it should be simple to test:
try to connect to a nntp server without username and password
try to connect to a nntp server that requires username and password
i have looked through the c-client code and the php4 extension and i could
imagine the problem might be in mm_login but i'm
the server is running:
php4.0.5-dev latest cvs
linux 2.2.12-20smp
imap (imap-2001.BETA.SNAP-0102201858) also tried (imap-4.7c)
All help is appreciated an if anybody wants more information or maybe a test
nntp account i can provide that (just send me a mail).

Hi there,
I am implementing a search function on a site that we are working on. We
have created a script that will search through the contents of a page and
looks for matches etc. It works well but will get slow on a large site.
Does anybody know a tutorial or info on how to create an indexing system so
the search can just search the indexing page rather than all files on a
site.
Thanks
Cool, Hrishi.
Can you make it work if you use a different url? For example, for SSL
connections like:
https://www.secure-website.net/~mydomain
I'm thinking of using something like this:
$spos=strpos($SCRIPT_FILENAME, "/public_html"); // or whatever the name of the
public root dir
$firstpath = substr($SCRIPT_FILENAME,0,$spos);
$fullpath = $firstpath . SCRIPT_NAME;
Not sure, but I think it's close.
kind regards,
bill

I've just done some testing and the "Image" type input doesn't seem to pass
its anem across as a variable at all when the form is submitted in the way a
submit button does. This is contrary to the w3c html specs. I've tested this
in nutscrape and micros**t ie5.
this is the code that doesn't work:
<?php
if (isset($fred2)) echo "fred2 set"; // only shows if submit button clicked
?>
<form action="#" method="post">
<input type=image name=fred2 src = "done.bmp" value="done0bmp">
<input type=image name=fred2 src = "tetra.bmp" value="minebmp">
<input type=submit name=fred2 value="submit">
</form>

FreeTDS is used to provide Sybase and MSSQL-specific TDS protocol
instructions to the databases. ODBC is a different protocol (from my
understanding).
If you're trying to use ODBC stuff, you need an ODBC driver. I think FreeTDS
might have this/allow this, but I don't think it's intended to do that.

You need to use preg_replace which supports evaluating PHP code for the
replacement. To use preg functions you need to have compiled PHP with PCRE
(Perl Compatible Regular Expression) support.
http://www.php.net/manual/function.preg-replace.php3
This should do the trick (untested!):
<?
$contents = "<img src=ThisOneReallyNeedsToBeAllLowercase.gif
alt=ThisOneReallyNeedsToBeAllLowercase.gif>";
$contents = preg_replace("/([-_a-zA-Z0-9]+)\.gif/e", "strtolower('\\1')
. '.gif'", $contents);
?>

I would do this:
if (!$AgeChild) $AgeChild = 'NA';
More compact, easier to read (to me, anyway). This presumes that a
value of '' (empty string, interpreted by PHP as false) is NOT a
valid value here.
As far as your sniplet goes, it is possible that there may be some
PHP type-casting issues here, depending on: whether $AgeChild is
numeric or string; the fact that the STRING "false" isn't equivalent
to the CONSTANT false, the use of == vs. ===.
Time to check out the docs - specifically the types and variables
sections (also the functions->variables section)...

I stand firm on strlen() for the following reasons ...
if(!$var) will sometimes act strangely (has for me in the past) when variables
are set to something other than what you are expecting.
if(isset($var)) will return true if your text field is declared but not filled
in.
if(empty($var)) will return true if $var is set to 0 (for obvious reason) so is
only good for certain instances.
strlen() on the other hand converts the variable to a string and returns a count
of characters. It's never failed or acted funky. For this reason I use it
religiously.
Others might say "well it's extra overhead" to which I reply "I'll take an extra
bazillionth of a second to know for sure I have what I need"

the status back to my page. I am not clear on how to put this data into

Will the data be in $fp as shown in the code below?

Hello all,
I've been away from php for a while, ( and I'm glad to be back) Last
time I checked in, sessioning was kinda working - especially the sessioning
of objecs. Is this feature robust enough for production now? I want to do
basic sessioning, and I don't have a lot of development time. What I want to
do is simply :
- Log in
-instantsiate an object that will contain the user information
-save the data in session
-allow me to recreate that object from page to page
How would I do/find out how to do this?
Don't store your object in the session, that is just bad design.
Store a lookup value, then grab your object from your DB only when you
need it.

Why is this good design?
If I create a user object, populate it, kill the connection to the database
(or return it to the pool) and cache the object then I can retrieve it any
time I want without having to hit the database.
Not arguing, just curious as to your perspective.

I install a new system RH6.2 width some updates the kernel is a 2.2.17-14
I use Apache 3.1.14 whit PHP 4.0.4pl1 compiles as a module.
I use a test page that is very simple to check sessions:
<?php
session_start();
if( !isset( $c)) {
session_register("c");
$c = 1;
}
echo $c . "<br>";
?>
<a href="index.php">reload</A>
In the new machine this code every show 1, don't save session data.
I see in /tmp and all the sess_* files are empty.
I check configuration, etc, and don't found anything.
I check the same code in other machine with the same configuration, and
works fine.
Can anybody help me??
Hello everyone,
I'm currently working a project that is intended to handle Japanese
character sets - and now I'm told ideally iMode too. :) The iMode isn't
such an issue at the moment - but the article below has spooked me a
little. At an early point in the project we tested if putting some input
into a web form, which ultimately was handled by php then stored in
postgres would return fully intact - and it did. This left me comfortable
that PHP and Postgres don't seem to care what language they're storing in
fields or variables. I'm 'guessing' that this is because the data, whether
its English or Japanese is being stored in binary (or something else?). Of
course I wouldn't be able to sort the data or do anything else that would
require PHP/Postgres to be able to interpret the data. However if I compile
Postgres with locals support for the character set/language in question -
then postgres will be able to sort Japanese. Is this right?
Have I got this all right so far? I have attempted to do my research on
this - but finding a real beginners guide to international web development
has been a trick. And the best sources I have found on this topic generally
are specific to Oracle. Any links would be appreciated.
Ok the next part of this message is an article I thought would be generally
interesting so I'm not hesitating to post it entirely. It was forwarded to
me so I'm not sure of the source.
For the postgres folks, these developers went with MySQL - I've chosen
Postgres. Is there anything MySQL does that Postgres doesn't in terms of
language support that I should be aware of?

there is a blank in the string

First table has variable course_name (varchar -- length 50)
This database will be used to generate the dynamic list box for the
course_name field.
Second table has variable issue_course_name (varchar -- length50) and is the
variable that stores the result of the selected

RTFM:
session_start();
session_register();
Controlled by the INI file section [Session].
Given that you use the builtin session.serialize_handler (either php, or
wddx), and the default session.save_handler (files), files will be named
after the session ID, and be stored in the directory pointed to by the
session.save_path setting.

I thought that was what it did. :-)
Read the session manual, the papers published in phpbuilder and check the
session options in php.ini.

Dear gentlemen/madams,
I am a system administrator and currently we are playing to migrate all
our CGI (written in C) to php! But playing a little with php i got
worried about how services that need to keep username/password are
handled by php, for instance:
All our CGI programs execute sql queries to a mysql server, they
contains the user name and password in order to login into the database.
Since these programs need only to be executed its read flags are turned
off. I need such a funcionality with php, but how can this be done?
PHP scripts not owned by the user that runs the web server are required
to have the read flag for all tuned on, ok? this makes its contents
readable by all my system users, right ? So how to put user
name/password information into such script in order to get it accessing
mysql, but without allowing any other user to get into its contents and
reading login/password information ?
Thanks a lot for your time and cooperation.
Where can I find some help, how to make & use page templates on my
webpages??? Needs this some add-ons to my PHP3(Linux-main)/PHP4(win98+pws)?
THNX
I want to assign a value using the url however the value contains both a ?
and an & so PHP (or the browser) seems to get confused.
Here's an example:
http://www.mysite.com/index.php?id=23&url=http://www.anothersite.com/file.ph
p?qid=234&forum=4
Everything after url= should be the value of $url but this is not the case.
Is there a way to solve this?
Thanks
URLs must be encoded if they contain special characters (and should be
encoded always). See urlencode().

Have a look at the rawurlencode() and rawurldecode() functions.
Generally spoken, any variable data passed as GET or POST argument should
_always_ be passed in URLEncoded format. MSIE handles this quite nicely by
auto-encoding unencoded data, but other browsers miss this.
When constructing your GET command line, simply use the rawurlencode()
function for any value.
Example:
<html><body>
<?php
$time = date ("l dS of F Y h:i:s A");
echo "<a href=\"$PHP_SELF?gettime=";
// this line will work everywhere
echo rawurlencode($time);
// this line will work with MSIE only
// echo $time;
echo "\">";
echo $time;
echo "</a><br>gettime = $gettime";
?>
</body></html>

Hi,
I moved my server, changed the IP addresses, etc., and now I'm having
strange problems with PHP. Not on all scripts, just some. Scripts that
worked just fine before I moved it. Most notably, I'm working with Phorm <
http://holotech.net > and I can no longer pass certain variables. Again:
this worked *just fine* before I moved the server. Makes me think it's got
nothing to do with the script, so what could have gone wrong with the
server? Again, certain scripts, such as FishCart < http://fishcart.org >
continue to work fine after the move. Has anybody run into anything like
this before? Your help would be appreciated.
TIA,
BenO
It could have to do with the register_globals setting (within php.ini)
as the following :
<?php
// foo.php?fruit=apple
echo $fruit;
?>
Will print nothing if register_globals is off. The following will
print it correctly, whether on or off (assuming track_vars is on) :
<?php
// foo.php?fruit=apple
echo $HTTP_GET_VARS['fruit'];
?>
Perhaps one script takes register_globals and track_vars into account
while another does not. See :
http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.register-globals
This setting can be seen through phpinfo().

Philip Olson

Personally I started with the Wrox Professional PHP Programming guide and
still use it today(its sittin in front of me). I see they have one out now
for php4 which is around $60 which I am probably going to order just to keep
up to date. They cover the basics and then go into some more specific
sections(broken into chapters) on useful technologies you can integrate with
such as XML, LDAP, and MySQL all the while providing good reference sections
in each chapter and sample code. If you haven't figured it out already I'd
recommend the wrox book.

I think Wrox is a very good reference for any language. I have an XSLT
reference from Wrox and it has helped me tremendously because it is so
comprehensive (includes online reference material). I'm sure the PHP book
from Wrox is just as good. Another great book for PHP, especially for
beginners, is The PHP Bible.

I'm using the file command, which reads an entire file and sticks it into an
array. I'm trying to read a file from mp3.com, and what I get back is
basically that the connection is refused. Doesn't it just load it up like
any browser would load it? Is there an equivalent command that wouldn't try
to make a connection, but would just request the file like any browser would
and then load it that way? I've also tried the fopen command, and I get the
same results.
I'm seeing various posts to mailing lists in the past on this subject, but
there doesn't appear to be a fix. I'd love it if one of you can help out.
We're running PHP 4.0.0 and Apache 1.3.12 on Solaris 7. PHP runs fine with
99 VirtualHosts, but when we add our 100th, every site on the server spits
out the following error:
Warning: Failed opening
'/usr/local/apache/htdocs/t/www.the-url.com/htdocs/index.php' for
inclusion (include_path='') in Unknown on line 0
This is regardless of whether the site uses PHP or not.
Thanks,
Dan Debertin

How may i prevent my users from reading others php scripts?
Encode them, or set filesystem permissions in such a way (suggest using
groups) to allow apache to read files but not other users.
For instance, if your users are all members of the users group, and apache
runs as nobody, then set your files to be owned by the user with the nobody
group (chown user:nobody <file>) then set it to be readable by group, but
not others (chmod 640 <file>).

Thanks, but i am considering such an approach! Isn't there any other way

May i consider using php in a shell server environment a stupid thing to
do ? Since security is very critical in such environments!
Those are the only two methods I'm aware of... Zend does offer it's Encoder
Unlimited on a subscription basis though that would allow you to encode all
of your users scripts (they actually list that as problem for which the
encoder is a good solution).

Smarty homepage:
http://www.phpinsider.com/php/code/Smarty/
Changes:
- built-in caching support (Monte, Andrei)
- moved license from GPL to LGPL (Monte)
- implemented workaround for PHP "feature" that eats carriage
returns
if the PHP tag is at the end of the line. (Andrei)
- removed $allow_php, added $php_handling logic,
fixing issues with <?xml ?> tags and the like (Monte)
- added file locking to prevent reader/writer problem. (Andrei)
- made Smarty catch unimplemented modifiers and custom functions and
output
error messages during compilation instead of failing during run
time.
(Andrei)
- removed short-tags at the top of the smarty scripts (Monte)
- added register_function() and register_modifier() API calls to
make
registering stuff easier. (Andrei)
- added optional 'options' attribute to html_options custom function
that allows passing associative arrays for values/output. (Andrei)
- modifier arguments can now contain '|' and ':' characters inside
quoted
strings. (Andrei)

Hi,
I'm storing files in DB. basically (what's important in this case),
I have two columns:
file_name - contains the original filename
file_src - blob which contains the actual file
now the user clicks on a link something like download.php?file_id=123
and the php script will spit out the file. is there any way (some
header magic) to make the user browser to offer the file to be
saved as "file_name" ?
Rgds,
Tfr
--==< [EMAIL PROTECTED] >==< http://tfr.cafe.ee/ >==< +372-50-17621 >==--
no problem :)
Header("Content-Type: {$prod_r["file_type"]} ");
Header("Content-Disposition: filename='{$prod_r["file_name"]}' ");
echo $prod_r["file"];
this code works perfect for me, just modify the variables to meet yours.

I am attempting to insert a set of data (actually a pair) into an array,
without much success. I would like to insert the data set ("course
number", "course title") into a numerically indexed array so that when I
want to output the array I can reference it like so:
echo("$array[$i]["course_num"] $array[$i]["course_title"]");
// where $i is just the index value that increments
I tried building the array like so (where $tuple[....] is a valid result
set from pg_fetch_row():
$array[] = array("course_num" => $tuple[crn],
"course_title" => $tuple[course_name]);
But all I gets outputted is:
Array["course_num"] Array["course_title"]
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Try:
echo $array[$i][course_num] . ' ' . $array[$i][course_title];

Change this to

Hi!
I am trying to put in a new data at the beginning of a file.
I have started like this;
--------
$yourfile = "test.xml"; (<a><b><c><d><e><f></c> this is the file.)
$fp = fopen ($yourfile, r);
$message = array(1 => '<a>', '<b>', '<c>', '<d>', '<e>', '<f>',
'</c>');
Here I need some code to get the output look like
this"<a><b><new><c><d><e><f></c>"
print_r($message);
fwrite ($fp, $message);
fclose ($fp);
I am thankful for any help.
Regards
Jan
You can also use PHP for shell scripting - just add #!/path/to/php -q as
the first line of your script.
Note: You will still need to enclose all PHP scripting in <?php ... ?>
tags.
Here's an example:
file: phpinfo.phpshell
<? phpinfo() ?>
The preceding information was returned by PHP info.
[EOF]
Then run the following on your command line:
machine$ cd /path/to/phpinfo.phpshell
machine$ ./phpinfo

mysql executes the queries in the order it recieves
them, (so if your program's logic executes a select
before an update, you'll never see results from the
update in your select... at least not normally :)
Are you able to access the MySQL monitor program?
if so, verify that the data really does exist
before running your script (maybe the SELECT
is failing beucase the actual data is incorrect,
not the code...)
go into the monitor and execute your SELECT
statement, then run your PHP script... if
the results still disagree, post some more
information...

well, except for insert delayed and update low_priority this might be
true, but there's exceptions.
I have been using the code below to do my page redirects for a year and a
half with good results. Recently, some users have reported to me that the
actual code is being partially displayed to the screen, and the re-direct is
not occurring. It is as if the server stops serving the page before it is
complete. Sometimes the problem can be corrected by the user just doing a
manual refresh in their browser. Is anyone else that uses META tag
re-directs having this problem? Anyone know what the solution might be?
Thanks.

if you have output buffering on in php.ini
output_bufffering = on
cobine this with
<?php

and youve got a great cobination, zero html will be sent to the browser,
just the header, the browser will refresh for you. try it, works better then
meta tags.

Thanks, Chris. This touches on another problem. Have you tried this with
session cookies disabled in your browser? Can you pass the session ID using
the header function? I can't seem to, but I *can* pass it using SID appended
to the URL in the META tag. This is one reason I wanted to stay with the
META refresh method, if possible, so the site still works for people with
cookies disabled.
Thanks, again, I will play with this.

yes I know what your saying.
trans-sid will not work when the url is absolute ie.
<form method=post action='http://$SERVER_NAME/index.php'>
or
<a href='http://$SERVER_NAME/index.php'>index</a>
or
header("Location: http://$SERVER_NAME/index.php");
header redirects *require* absolute url's so your going to have to add the
phpsessid yourself, ie.
<?php
$SID = "PHPSESSID=$PHPSESSID";
header("Location: http://$SERVER_NAME/index.php?$SID");
?>
rember "" not '' seems people get them mixed up alot. '' doesnt parse the
string.
I use this method to transer valid sessions accros multiple domain names on
the same box. sessions will not follow absolte urls and cookies are only
vaild on a per-domain name basis. use sessions and your can force a session
across multiple domain names. ie. our secure server is on a differnet domain
name then the regular sites. we do this to get a cheaper deal on our
certificate, all our sites use one domain name for secure info.
I would recomment agains php.net's sujestion os using SID ie.
echo "<a href='http://$SERVER_NAME/index.php?'". SID ."'>index</a>";
SID is only set if the a cookie is NOT set. oi. thank god $PHPSESSID is
allways set :)
another note too though is try and limit the amount of header re-redirects
you use, search engines will not index pages that follow header redirects.
spam thing or something.

You should either do this with ereg, or strtolower and not a combination of
the two, and in all actuality strtolower is specifically desinged to do this
very easily so I would go with it.
<?
$contents="<img src=ThisOneReallyNeedsToBeAllLowercase.gif
alt=ThisOneReallyNeedsToBeAllLowercase.gif>";
$contents = strtolower($contents);
?>
Should do what you want.

Hi,
My last message on this topic was a bit hard to translate. So here is the
thought out version.
1. I have a page on a server called admin.php (protected by htaccess for
admin use only)
2. This page holds variables that are changed by form elements.
(Checkboxes etc)
And this in turn effects different parts of the site it is being used
in.
3. I want to know how to keep the changes to the form.
Example: If i bring up the admin.php page in my browser and click a
checkbox, it permantly keeps it changed until i decide to change it again.
4. Is there some sort of PHP save command, that saves the state of a
page.
5. Any ideas?
Please help, I gotta have this worked out by Monday or I'm dead.

You could have the page output options to a formatted plain text file.
Sample Format
{
bold = 0;
italic = 1;
}
and then when the page loads it reads in the options from that file and
alters the page accordingly. For extra credit use a database rather than a
plain text file, but if you haven't done that before (and there is a
deadline) this is probably the easiest learning curve.

Your asking a huge question and expecting a small answer ie.
php_save();
the anser your looking or is not small, im sorry. your asking a big
question, and with all big questions comes a big answer.
Do you know how to use db's ? mysql? postgres? I'll assume you do. save you
changes in a db, pull those variables rom the db and arange the client pages
around this data.
http://phpbuilder.com/columns/jesus19990308.php3
has an article on learning to use mysql.
if you dont have a db you can use, you could use xml, I would recommend
installing a db before you tackeled this, you said you have till monday,
this doesnt leave alot of time to learn xml and all that is assisiated with
it. your going to be pushing it to learn a db language by then.
when php is run all the variables are rememberd, untill... php stops
running, then all is lost, this is why you need a db, to remember all the
data. you could use sessions, but this is not what your looking for.
sessions are for remebering *one* persons info, not many people's, and not
for long term, short term.

Hello,
I am working on a PHP script for an e-commerce site that mails out calling
card pin numbers after somebody purchases them online. Turing testing I not
noticed that aol users were not receiving the messages. AOL seems to be
filtering them out without sending a bounce or anything. We tried it with
multiple aol users, and nothing I tried when using the mail function got
through, but messages sent from the server with pine and the php mail
package SquirrelMail do get through. The messages are received on every
other mail system I have tried.
I know this is more of a mail question, but I was hoping somebody here and
encountered this before and knew of a workaround. I noticed that
SquirrelMail doesn't use the mail function, they chose to write their own
SMPT package. I wonder why?
Anyway, my test scripts look like this:
<?php
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Test 1",
"This is a test",
"From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nReply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nX-Mailer: My
test mail program\nX-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nContent-Type: text/plain;
charset=\"us-ascii\"");
echo "Mail sent!";
?>
I tried playing around with different headers and nothing made any
difference. I sent them to myself and they sure look like valid email
messages to me. Does anybody else have this problem? What did you do about it?
Thanks,
Steve
Can someone help me with this script? It is an example from weberdev.com. I
ran it and it gave me the following error...
-- Warning: Use of undefined constant count - assumed 'count' in
c:\windows\desktop\localhost\examples\counter\counter1.php on line 27
25
The number 25 is the correct number for the counter, but how do I get rid of
that error message that keeps coming up before the counter number (25)? I am
testing and learning PHP on Windows ME and am using PHP 4.0.4 with MySQL
3.23.33. Here is the script:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- This example from
http://www.weberdev.com/index.php3?GoTo=ShowShoppingItems.php3%3FMasterCateg
-->
<?php
$hostname = 'localhost';
$username = 'username';
$password = 'password';
$dbName = 'database';
MYSQL_CONNECT($hostname,$username,$password) OR DIE("Unable to connect to
database");
@mysql_select_db("$dbName") or die("Unable to select database");
$name = "$SCRIPT_NAME";
$result = MYSQL_QUERY("SELECT * FROM counter WHERE (name = '$name')") or die
("Bad query: ".mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
if($row){
MYSQL_QUERY("UPDATE counter SET count = count+1 WHERE (name = '$name')") or
die ("Bad query: ".mysql_error());
$count = $row[count];
}else{
MYSQL_QUERY("INSERT INTO counter VALUES ('', '$name', '2')") or die ("Bad
query: ".mysql_error());
$count = '1';
}
echo $count;
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>
-- Navid
change
$row[count]
to
$row['count']
it thinks the work [count] is some kind of conastant, it doesnt know you
mean (string) 'count'

I have a few sites which contain forms that span multiple screens (all
contained in two scripts though...)
theforms.php
<?
// Include file
class theForms
{
function showScreen1()
{
global $error;
?>
The html for the form.
<? if($error){ echo $error; } ?>
<?
}//function showScreen1
function saveScreen1()
{
global $HTTP_POST_VARS;
// save the input into a database or file etc.
if(success)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}//function saveScreen1
function showScreen2()
{
global $error;
?>
The html for the form.
<? if($error){ echo $error; } ?>
<?
}//function showScreen1
function saveScreen2()
{
global $HTTP_POST_VARS;
// save the input into a database or file etc.
if(success)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}//function saveScreen1
}
?>
forms.php
<?
include('theforms.php');
$theForms = new theForms;
if(!isset($screen)){ $screen = 'showScreen1'; }
switch($screen)
{
case 'showScreen1':
$theForms->showScreen1();
break;
case 'saveScreen1':
if($theForms->saveScreen1() != true)
{
$error = "it died!";
$theForms->showScreen1();
break;
}
case 'showScreen2':
$theForms->showScreen2();
break;
}//Switch
?>
so basically I put all the html into functions in a class, and control the
flow of the form with the switch statement, that way if my function that
saves the data comes across an error, it get's trapped and shows that screen
again...
Has anybody else found a more elegant way to accomplish this? It works quite
nice, but I was wondering how other people go about creating their forms.
Thanks,
-Jonathan
File uploads -was- working. I reinstalled the server with the RedHat packages
apache-1.3.14-3.rpm
php-4.0.4pl1-3.rpm
php-mysql-4.0.4pl1-3
I'm using the same scripts, but file uploads is not working
now. Correction... the file uploads to the server, but doesn't view
properly when I try to load it in a browser. If I grab it by ftp from the
server and view it in Photoshop, it looks fine.
Any ideas?
-Ed
More info:
I transferred an image to the web server via ftp and was able to view it
successfully from the web site.
Here's an example image that was transferred using a file upload form that
won't display properly:
http://www.atfantasy.com/attachments/3224/samurai1.jpg
When you try to view it, it just displays a box with a small x, as if the
image wasn't there. I've verified the image is there.
What would be doing this?
