First off, I am a total newbie to php and DB stuff. Pardon the intrusion on
your busy schedules. Really.
My host is having a hard time finding phpmysqladmin and he touted this as a
solution to my wanting to get into the DB arena as well as php. Does anyone
know where to get it? All of my evening has now been wasted googling
looking for it and perhaps there is a better solution.
And no, I really am out of my game here, but I figured it was a good place
to ask. The only caveat the host said was that it MUST be PHP4.x
compatible.
I sincerely apologize for the intrusion if it's not on topic enough. I know
I need to go further in my exploration that the net has via tutorials and
PHP manual, but if anyone has time I would sincerely appreciate it. I have
been lurking for a week or two. Good stuff to be found here. Indeed.
I could have all the assumptions above all wrong and some bad
data/opinions... sorry. please explain. If I am in the wrong place to
ask, please tell me where the best place to look/ask is. I don't want to
waste anybodys time. I surely would not want mine wasted.
BTW-- I am on DIGEST, so a CC: would be appreciated dearly.
TIA.
Erik

I think you're looking for phpMyAdmin and yes, it's very viable and PHP4
compatible.

Damian,
Yes, I sent that to him, but who knows... well, at least I don't know. PHP
is new to me. SQL? Even newer.
I created an account like that on L33T.ca last week, and just sent my host
an email on that before posting here. I just figured that phpmysqladmin was
a different thing.
These are the same things. eh?

Well, let's just say that my host is not a server farm and my hosting fees
are incredibly hard to pass up on many levels (work that comes my way and
theirs..) and the simple fact that i can actually email and get a quick
response (or dare I say PHONE!) to Q's and exceptional service is one of my
strong longings in any industry.
I am happy so far, but will forgo switching hosts for now. It has simply
worked up until now, and this is nothing more than a minor "blip" in the
radar.
I do know exactly what you're talking bout tho... appreciate the concern.
I have had to mediate host v. client v. coder v. designer all too often.
Maybe I should be in arbitrage. LOL (well, maybe not, but I will consult
;-)

After installing PHP 4.2.0 I got the following error-message under a run:
"Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed
by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration
of [runtime function name](). If you would like to enable call-time
pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in
your INI file. However, future versions may not support this any longer. "
This is actually big news as parameter passing is a fundamental issue.
Traditionally
function foo($v) called as
foo(&$myvar)
was regarded as safer coding than
function foo(&$v) called as
foo($myvar)
as in the first case the user would automatically be aware that $myvar
could be changed by the function, in the second not.
Worse is that in some functions it makes fine sense for the user to have a
choice. These functions will be very hard to rewrite as the user will be
forced to references in all cases.
Finally default parameters are not supported for reference-parameters in
the function header.
Anyway - it seems that I have to choose between either starting to rewrite
quite a lot of code right away or risk being forced to rewrite more later
if I use the quick fix with setting allow_call_time_pass_reference to true.
Any thoughts?

What version did you upgrade from? This has been the case for over two
years. Here's the actual commit which added this warning:
http://cvs.php.net/diff.php/Zend/zend_compile.c?r1=1.85&r2=1.86&ty=h&Horde=f1b8ac02f66b49090920734c03b780c1
...which is from Dec 15, 1999---5 months before PHP 4.0.0 was released.
Chances are you had the error suppressed in php.ini.

Yup. Start changing that code. :)
Sorry if this seems overly glib but it's just the way things work. This
has been hashed over before--check the list archives. Essentially, the
feeling is that references are not what you might expect if you come
from a C-like background and the call-time syntax doesn't give you
the benefits you might expect.
Hope that explains some of it. I believe there is more on the topic
on zend.com, too.
Cheers,
Torben

A simple looks around at phpbuilder.com will result in an article on browser

Greetings, Thomas.
Did you solve this problem? If not, I would suggest getting rid of the
"--enable-libgcc" in your ./configure command. Here's how I configured
my installation of 4.2.0 for Solaris 8: (Directory names XXX'ed out)
'./configure' '--prefix=XXX' '--enable-cli'
'--enable-magic-quotes' '--disable-short-tags' '--enable-bcmath'
'--enable-calendar' '--enable-dba=shared' '--enable-dbx' '--enable-dio'
'--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-shmop'
'--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm'
'--enable-tokenizer' '--enable-wddx' '--enable-yp'
'--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-apxs=XXX'
'--with-openssl=shared,XXX' '--with-zlib=shared,XXX'
'--with-bz2=shared,XXX' '--with-curl=shared,XXX'
'--with-gd=shared,XXX' '--with-ldap=shared,XXX'
'--with-mcal=shared,XXX' '--with-mcrypt=shared,XXX'
'--with-mnogosearch=shared,XXX'
'--with-mysql=shared,XXX'
'--with-sybase-ct=shared,XXX' '--with-expat-dir=XXX'
I'm building with gcc 3.0.3.
Regards,
/bsh/

Hey guys and gals,
i have a form with method=post which sends
<input type=hidden name=quiz[quiz_title] value=$quiz[quiz_title]>
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_name] value=$quiz[owner_name]>
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_email] value=$quiz[owner_email]>
<input type=hidden name=quiz[number_answers] value=$quiz[number_answers]>
<input type=hidden name=submitted value=TRUE>
to the same page, and picks it up in an
if ($submitted) {....} loop.
but now here's the problem:
when it comes back and goes into the loop. Only the first name from
$quiz[owner_name] is left, so where it used to be John Doe, is now only Joe.
how do i fix this?
thanks
Jule

Use quotes and a little common sense.
<input type=hidden name=quiz value=John Doe>
How do you expect HTML to know that you mean John Doe to be the entire
value? Computers only do what you tell them.
<input value=John Doe crap=foo name=quiz>
So what's the value there? Is it 'John', 'John Doe', 'John Doe crap=foo'
or what??
Hope you see the point...
<input type="hidden" name="quiz" value="John Doe">

You need double quotes around the value. E.g.,
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_name] value="$quiz[owner_name]">

Subject: [PHP] method=post problem
Hey guys and gals,
i have a form with method=post which sends
<input type=hidden name=quiz[quiz_title] value=$quiz[quiz_title]>
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_name] value=$quiz[owner_name]>
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_email] value=$quiz[owner_email]>
<input type=hidden name=quiz[number_answers] value=$quiz[number_answers]>
<input type=hidden name=submitted value=TRUE>
to the same page, and picks it up in an
if ($submitted) {....} loop.
but now here's the problem:
when it comes back and goes into the loop. Only the first name from
$quiz[owner_name] is left, so where it used to be John Doe, is now only Joe.
how do i fix this?
thanks
Jule

Your HTML is invalid. You have to quote non-numeric values.
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_name] value='$quiz[owner_name]'>
Otherwise it ends up looking like:
<input type=hidden name=quiz[owner_name] value=John Doe>
and it thinks "Doe" is some other attribute to the input tag.

You're missing quotes around the attribute values. Thus, the system is
assuming only the first thing following the value is the value. Write
your HTML up to spec and you'll be fine.
echo '<input type="hidden" name="quiz[owner_name]" value="' .
$quiz['owner_name'] . '" />';

Based on the parts of this thread that I have read, I didn't see anything
about the failing platform. What is the OS, Webserver, etc.? Does it have
to function thru a gateway or proxy server to get to URL you are trying to
open, perhaps security is tighter on this machine? Are tcp/ip connections
to port 80 from this machine blocked in any way?
The "bad file number" message could be a clue. Does this platform return -1
when the file does not exist (or is blocked)?
Using a browser, you get a series of numbers (mostly floats). Perhaps if
you were to exercise a browser on this machine against the same URL, you
might get a few more clues.
just a few thoughts,

Well, you don't show your source code, but if I had to guess I'd say you
have a newish install of PHP and an oldish book, and you're trying to get
the value of $LastName rather than $_GET['LastName'].

With newer installations of PHP, form data does not by default show up in
eponymous variables. This has been discussed at great length here - just
check the archives for any random day in the past month or so.
For best results, write the print statement like this:
print "Your first name is {$_REQUEST['FirstName']}.<br>\n";
and you'll get the results you're after.

That's ridiculous. Buy a new book.

More than likely you're using 4.2.0 which had global variables turned off by
default. You're not the first one to experience this problem and probably
won't be the last.
You'll need to call the files using a global array....since you're using the
post method
$_POST['$FirstName']
would be the correct variable to use to get the FirstName data from the
form.
Or an easier approach would be
$_REQUEST['$FirstName']
which will provide you with the results no matter what method you use to
post the form.
> And the book suggested POST instead of GET because it

hehehahaha =) The book is dead wrong. Both formats are insecure, the main
difference is that the GET method displays the variables in the url string
whereas post caches the variable values in the browser. There are
advantages and disadvantages to both but neither of which have the advantage
of security. IMO POST is better to use generally since it presents much
cleaner URLs to the end user, but I find the GET method much better when
debugging a script designed to process a form submission.
Sincerely,
Craig Vincent

Are you using post or get? I imagine you'd run into some limitations
using get.

I need to generate every possible combination of the the values in an array.
For example, if...
$array = Array("A", "B", "C");
I want to be able to do something like
print_r(magic_function($array));
which would output
Array
(
[0] => "ABC"
[1] => "ACB"
[2] => "BAC"
[3] => "BCA"
[4] => "CAB"
[5] => "CBA"
)
I really have no idea where to begin. The best lead I can think of is that
there are going to be n! elements in the output array, where n is the size of
the input array.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

recursive function, passing back in the array, minus the current position
and current combination. when array is empty, use current combination.
um... something like (but not tested)
function comby($arr, $comb = "")
{
$num = count($arr);
if ($num == 0)
{
echo $comb;
return;
}
for ($i = 0; $i < $num; $i++)
{
$tmp_comb = $comb . $arr[$i];
$tmp_arr = $arr;
array_splice($arr, $i, 1);
comby($tmp_arr, $comb);
}
}
$array = Array("A", "B", "C");
comby($array);

Correct, this also implies that using more than say 20 elements (20!)
will take *loads* of CPU time and memory. Anyway, I did such a program
once to test the performance of VB versus Java but alas I dont keep it
around. It was recursive tho.
A quick check on google came up with some code here:
http://www.delphiforfun.org/Programs/Permutes_1.htm
and som theory here:

Hi
What I do is use the function GetImageSize(), if that returns x and/or y =
0 it probably isn't an image file and dump it.

2 things that are foriegn to me. Im trying to construct a class to
handle errors.
I started out trying to make it recognise errors in the first place and
then expand, but Im having difficulty.
class.php
<?php
class eh
{
function eh()
{
error_reporting (E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);
set_error_handler($this->errorhandler);
}
function errorhandler($type, $str, $file, $line)

switch ($type)
{
case E_ERROR:
echo 'ERROR OCCURED';
break;
case E_WARNING:
echo 'YOUR WARNING!';
break;
}
}
}
?>
-----------------------------------------------------------
test.php
<?php
require_once('./class.php');
$eh = new eh();
join (':', $next);
?>
Whenever I run test.php, I get the regular php error page instead 'ERROR
OCCURED'. Im not sure if I can feed set_error_handler the way I did.
Does anyone see anything wrong with this piece of code?

I'm pretty sure the sessioning works perfectly. And it
is not the problem. The problem is Header(), which
fails without any error or other output. You can only
look at the other mails posted on this subject, that
it is a major problem in v 4.2.1. Until it is solved,
I'll work on something else...
Thanks for your time.

Hello list,
I have a php program which executes a heavy mysql query upon request.
Normally, it should not be requested too often, but I am afraid
malicious user trying to massively call this program. I am considering
to use $HTTP_REFERER to restrict the connection source, but is it worth
trusting? Is it possible for a hacker to make an identical $HTT_REFERER
in the header? I have no idea how $HTTP_REFERER is made, is it made from
the http client and put in the http header?
If I can't trust $HTTP_REFERER, how can I deny malicious attack like
that?

An HTTP_REFERER header is sent by the client browser...which means it is
mimicable (and quite easily I might add). Although adding HTTP_REFERER
restrictions to a script may add a small bit of security against script
kiddies it by no means is a true method of defence against hackers. The
best thing you can do is temporarily record the IPs of connections to your
script, and then block IPs that connect to the script too often directly
from your routing table. It doesn't necessarily stop those using proxies
but definately is more reliable than an HTTP_REFERER protection scheme.
Sincerely,
Craig Vincent

Thats exactly how its done. The user agent (browser) takes the URL it was
on when a link was clicked / form submitted etc and places that into a
HTTP header which is sent back to the server. This information can be very
easily faked and is widely implemented into spam / attack bots.

The best way is authentication. I dont know what the load on your server
is generating, but Im pretty sure there will be an alternative way of
doing it.
eg: on request do the load-based method and dump the details into a
temporary table with a timestamp of the last time it was updated. If you
get the same request within x minutes (or hours / days) then serve up the
generated information from the table.
This would mean that your db no longer gets hammered if malitious users
were to launch 5000 requests at it in the space of 10 mins, it would just
do the big DB operation the once.

If you are expecting to have a wide (uncontrolled) audience for the data
you are outputting I would strongly suggest against doing this as the
majority of major ISPs operate transparent web proxies - where everyone
from that ISP will appear to be coming from the same IP.
If I was a malitious user, I would get a block of 50 IPs, place them on a
unix box and then bind randomly to the IPs when making the calls... making
the work around for this security measure trivial.
Im not saying you shouldnt implement any method of security, as some
security is far better than none! Just making sure that everyone is aware
of the consequences and implications.

Hello "Dan Hardiker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
Then, it is not safe to do IP-based blocking, right? Any alternative?

As I mentioned in an earlier post (my original reply to you):
> If I can't trust $HTTP_REFERER, how can I deny malicious attack like
> that?
The best way is authentication... that is asking the user for a username
and password before doing getting the data (then you can block out
specific users should they attack you - but you can only do that after the
incident). There are other methods - I dont know what the load on your
server is generating, but Im pretty sure there will be an alternative way
of doing it.
eg: on request do the load-based method and dump the details into a
temporary table with a timestamp of the last time it was updated. If you
get the same request within x minutes (or hours / days) then serve up the
generated information from the table.

This is a basic question but I'm a basic fellow. If I have an array
$timespread = array("12am-01am"=>0);
$timespread["01am-02am"]=0;
$timespread["02am-03am"]=0; etc
Using $time which is a number, I want to add 1 to the value of
$timespread[$time] without changing the key so if $time =1
I want to have $timespread["01am-02am"]=1;
Using $timespread[$time]+=1; doesn't work.
any ideas?

Nope, you must say
$timespread["01am-02am"] += 1

I think the problem here is your understanding on how array key's work.
The following method would be far more appropriate:
<?php
// Create 00 to 23 in the array
// 00 will store hits between midnight and 1am,
// 01 for 1am - 2am ...
// 23 for 11pm - midnight
$timespread = array();
for ($cnt=0; $cnt<24; $cnt++) {
$timespread[str_pad($cnt,2,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT)] = 0;
}
/* here you must work out the hour, and round *DOWN* (truncate off the
minutes .. eg: for the current time */
$timespread[date("H")]++;
?>
follow or have I lost ya?

Geez, use your editors paren-matching capabilities. Any modern editor
should notify you that you are missing the last parentheses in if
clause. I recommend emacs or vi.

Yup, there is an internal position pointer in every array which are

I have a query
"select cust_fnn, cust_name, agroup_access.group_access_cust from cust,
agroup_access where
agroup_access.group_access_group='$id' &&
cust.cust_fnn!=agroup_access.group_access_cust order by cust.cust_name"
The 2 tables are as follows
agroup_access
agroup_access_id agroup_access_group
agroup_access_cust
1 9
1610005847
2 9
0265478986
3 9
1610010254
Cust
cst_id cust_name cust_fnn (ect....)
1 xxx 1610005847
2 xxxxx 0265478986
And so on.... 200+ records
What I am trying to do is pull all records from cust where cust_fnn !=
agroup_access_cust && agroup_access_group=9..
What I am getting is all cust_fnn records but 3 of each and only 2 in
the case of it matching the
agroup_access_cust..
Can anyone see what I may have dome wrong..
I am trying to display them in a drop down box, below is the function
for the drop down box and the line to call the function..
combo5("fnn","select cust_fnn, cust_name,
agroup_access.group_access_cust from cust, agroup_access where
agroup_access.group_access_group='$id' &&
cust.cust_fnn!=agroup_access.group_access_cust order by
cust.cust_name","");
function combo5($name, $query, $sel) {
$dbq=mysql_query($query);
$html="<select name=\"$name\" class=\"longdd\">\n";
while( $data = mysql_fetch_array($dbq) ) {
if($data[cust_fnn]==$sel)
$html.="<option value=$data[cust_fnn]
selected>$data[cust_name] : $data[cust_fnn]</option>\n";
else
$html.="<option
value=$data[cust_fnn]>$data[cust_name]: $data[cust_fnn]</option>\n";
}
$html.="</select>\n";
return $html;
}
Hope someone can help...

Nothing to do with PHP...
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE ID IN (1,3,7,9);
