No, the user can't set a class variable directly, but if you are doing something like $this->var = $_GET['something'], then it's unsecure unless you are validating $_GET['something'] first. ---John W.

--- Begin Message ---Great! I was just looking for confirmation that my assumptions in my original post were correct. I have been using PHP for quite some time but have never read a specific article about possible attacks that allow modification of values in a class object or execution of functions in a PHP script.

I don't understand what you're asking... it's not making sense. The
file() function takes the path to a file and reads it into an array,
each element of the array being a line in the file. It could care less
if the first three lines were PHP code. It simply reads text and does
not evaluate anything (unless you are opening the file with a HTTP
connection, i.e. file('http://www...'))
Can you show your exact code and what the output is?

OK, I have a file called page.php that has the following code in it
(example but same layout and concept).
<?PHP
require("membercheck.php");
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
This is the text in the body of the page.
</body>
</html>
The membercheck.php file contains a login form that is used if a session
variable doesn't exist, i.e. the user is not logged in. What happens is
when I run file() to read in the contents of page.php it reads in the code
that is in the membercheck.php file, and never reads in any code that is
in the page.php file. What I would need is a way to read in the contents
of the page.php file without reading the membercheck.php file.
Better explanation?

You can use strtotime() (probably) to convert what's entered into a unix timestamp. From there you know how many seconds are in a day, so a little math can figure out how many days are between the two dates. You can use date() to find out the month of each one and do some more math... ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.

Consider this:
I have display.php, a script that will do XML parsing into an array and display its
contents.
I have view.php, a script that will include display.php and have to manipulate the
variables within display.php for itself.
So in view.php I have:
require('/.../.../display.php');
However, when display.php finishes being "required", I lose all of my variables that I
need for view.php. How do I retain them?? How can I ensure that these variables in
display.php will also exist in view.php?
Thanx
Phil

--- Begin Message ---Hello, I have the Images table setup with columns (width, height, size, type, etc...) the question is should I have the image data stored in this table or disk? I know, alot of people have said it is faster in disk, which is 1 page I/O. But I need these images for displaying product pages, and I believe that it would be faster to just pluck the properties from the dB (including the image file) . Usually I will need to pull 6 or 10 images per page, this is my rational for this situation: If all stored on db: One query - will take about 4-5 page I/O (assumiing index on filename) If just properties stored on dB and image on disk: One query to grab the rows of properties - 2-3 page I/O to grab 6 or 10 images - 6 or 10 page I/O Total - 8 - 13 Page I/O's If all images stored on disk, no dB whatso ever: to grab 6 or 10 images - 6 or 10 page I/O cpu time to run getimagesize() for each image - CPU time unknown? I assume that "page I/O" is that same as "disk access". I AGREE that storing images strored on disk is a valid approach PROVIDED that you only need 1 image per page, but if you need to grab a bunch at a time, I do beleieve that storing the actual file on the dB is faster. I would like to hear from the list, of people that have worked with images and PHP. I just started with images, so I just want to take the right path.--- End Message ---

--- Begin Message ---It looks nice. It does take a couple of seconds, (but I guess that is to be expected with dealing with images). I guess seeing your example, it seems that I can go with the filesystem. But do you use the getimagezise function? do you set the width and height for the IMG tag dynamically, or you don't use the image function and just have the IMG tags already set in stone? <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Have a look at: > > http://vrscenes.com/2003/gallery.php?mls=230944 > > and tell me what you think - all images are stored in the filesystem > > Don't worry about what it looks like - I extracted this from the frameset it goes in > > Cheers! > > RW > > Quoting Bobby Patel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > ### Hello, > ### I have the Images table setup with columns (width, height, size, type, > ### etc...) the question is should I have the image data stored in this table > ### or > ### disk? > ### > ### I know, alot of people have said it is faster in disk, which is 1 page > ### I/O. > ### But I need these images for displaying product pages, and I believe that > ### it > ### would be faster to just pluck the properties from the dB (including the > ### image file) . > ### > ### Usually I will need to pull 6 or 10 images per page, this is my rational > ### for > ### this situation: > ### > ### If all stored on db: > ### One query - will take about 4-5 page I/O (assumiing index on filename) > ### > ### If just properties stored on dB and image on disk: > ### One query to grab the rows of properties - 2-3 page I/O > ### to grab 6 or 10 images - 6 or 10 page I/O > ### Total - 8 - 13 Page I/O's > ### > ### If all images stored on disk, no dB whatso ever: > ### to grab 6 or 10 images - 6 or 10 page I/O > ### cpu time to run getimagesize() for each image - CPU time unknown? > ### > ### I assume that "page I/O" is that same as "disk access". > ### > ### I AGREE that storing images strored on disk is a valid approach PROVIDED > ### that you only need 1 image per page, but if you need to grab a bunch at a > ### time, I do beleieve that storing the actual file on the dB is faster. > ### > ### I would like to hear from the list, of people that have worked with > ### images > ### and PHP.

I just started with images, so I just want to take the right path. I would say develop your application so that it both stores the images in the DB _and_ copies it to the filesystem -- it should only require a few more lines of code. Then have a flag at runtime which decides whether to retrieve images from DB or from filesystem.

I know, alot of people have said it is faster in disk, which is 1 page I/O. But I need these images for displaying product pages, and I believe that it would be faster to just pluck the properties from the dB (including the image file) . Usually I will need to pull 6 or 10 images per page, this is my rational for this situation: If all stored on db: One query - will take about 4-5 page I/O (assumiing index on filename)
If just properties stored on dB and image on disk:
One query to grab the rows of properties - 2-3 page I/O
to grab 6 or 10 images - 6 or 10 page I/O
Total - 8 - 13 Page I/O's
If all images stored on disk, no dB whatso ever:
to grab 6 or 10 images - 6 or 10 page I/O
cpu time to run getimagesize() for each image - CPU time unknown?
I assume that "page I/O" is that same as "disk access".
I AGREE that storing images strored on disk is a valid approach PROVIDED
that you only need 1 image per page, but if you need to grab a bunch at a
time, I do beleieve that storing the actual file on the dB is faster.
I would like to hear from the list, of people that have worked with images
and PHP. I just started with images, so I just want to take the right path.

The strange thing is that it is not necessarily twice. Say I buy 2 items and then I buy 5 items, it will take 7 (2+5) and add that onto the first purchase of 2 giving me 9 items (when I should only have 7). As you can imagine, the more you buy the more this problem escalates. > Have you tested this on several machines? No I haven't I'm afraid. > Mike Another thing I have noticed is that the problem only occurs if I use ONE PHP script to do everything (i.e. display and add to the cart) If I split the code accross different scripts I then get nothing added to the cart at all (even though the SID automatically gets inserted inside each form, everytime I sumbit and look at the code the SID changes). I think this is probably to do with the fact that I have used the Rewrite rule in an .htaccess file and the SID (if in the URL) is not getting passed on to the script - not sure about that though. Hmm, still scratching my head although I have the items being correctly added to the cart when no ZA and now I have them not being added at all when Privacy is on. This is after having split the code into multiple files. Don't know why it should make a difference over multiple files though? Thanks Neil--- End Message ---

--- Begin Message ---I think that the developers of PHP know exactly where they want PHP to sit in the big bad world of .NET/J2EE. The whole reason the dotnet and java extensions have been written for PHP, is to allow PHP to talk to java/net objects, but more importantly, have PHP act as the front end, and .NET/J2EE do the business logic. I can't remember where I read it, but one of the PHP developers was mentioning that part of the modifications to ZE2 and its object handling, was to enable better interactione with Java and .NET. It will be more interesting once the Mono project reaches v1.0. Then you will have a .NET runtime on Unix environments, as well as ASP.NET, and the argument that 'ASP.NET is windows only' will cease to exist. There will always be a place for PHP in the web world.

If so, email me, because I can get you some great deals on anything you want! Anyhow... PHP/ASP/JSP are all here to stay. PHP is moving further up and up. Overall, the best recommendation is to use what you know and what accomplishes your mission. On a semi-related note, I read something the other day that MS was dropping the .Net name from it's next round of OS releases. I guess there was supposed to be a Windows Server .Net or something, but they decided to drop it because even they admitted that _everything_ was .Net and it was getting saturated. ---John Holmes...--- End Message ---

The disadvantage to this approach in my opinion is that I have to include the controller in all pages and it is therefor not possible to integrate pages which I do not control without breaking the concept of redirecting all requests to the same script.

I loaded the site onto another account within the same machine, and I can't seem to replicate the "document contained no data" error at all.

The server does use trans-sid, but in my case, it's using cookies... the session doesn't get LOST (because it's "back" next time I refresh), but I do appear to be "logged out" until I refresh again.

As a beginner I have been trying and trying, but to no suc6. Hope there's
someone here able to help me out:
Am trying to get rid of spaces and change all into uppercase in an entered
form variable, which I am able to do when trying things out but when running
the full php statement it refuses to change and enters the original variable
into the database anyway. Haven't got a clue why.
Please, what's wrong with the following:
if(mysql_result($query, 0, 0) == 0)// && (mysql_result($query2) > 0)#)
{
$password = md5($_POST['strPassword']);
$newstrUserName = $_POST['strUsername'];
$newstrUserName = strtoupper(ereg_replace(" ", "",
$newstrUserName));
$strQuery = "INSERT INTO users (";
$strQuery .= "`username`, `password`, `level`, `firstname`,
`lastname`, `ngfnummer`, `email`) VALUES (";
$strQuery .= "'$newstrUserName', '$password', '1',
'{$_POST['strFirstName']}', '{$_POST['strLastName']}',
'{$_POST['strNgfnummer']}', '{$_POST['strEmail']}')";
if(mysql_query($strQuery)) etc etc etc
original username given f.i. 'joe 8', $newstrUserName makes this 'JOE8', but
the above still enters 'joe 8' into database, how come?????

So here if you echo $newstrUserName, it is correct and what you had expected?
> $strQuery = "INSERT INTO users (";

> `lastname`, `ngfnummer`, `email`) VALUES (";

> '{$_POST['strNgfnummer']}', '{$_POST['strEmail']}')";
What if you now echo $strQuery? Is it still what you expected?
> if(mysql_query($strQuery)) etc etc etc
And you should have error checking in your code, something like:
if (mysql_query($strQuery)) {
do_your_stuff; }
else { //an error
echo mysql_error();
}
or checkout the examples in the manual.

If you can install your own programs then you can use netpbm or ImageMagick

--- Begin Message ---I'm working on a large VB/Sql Server to Php/Postgresql conversion (approx. 60k lines of code). I'd like to design this thing as OO as possible, because I think ultimately it leads to better, more extendable and readable software. However, since php does the whole copy thing with objects, I'm a little concerned. Is this "deficiency" on the part of PHP 4 something I should be concerned about? If I have a 60k loc fully object-oriented php app with a large amount (approx. 500 or so) queries to a db, am I making a mistake by going OO? Will it really slow down the app *that* much, or consume memory like a pack of hungry piranhas? Thanks for the input, guys. John--- End Message ---

First of all, VB is precompiled and PHP is not. This will already be slower. So, you gonna need to create a logic that loads only the necessary classes for every request. In VB you wouldn't probably need it. > I'd like to design this thing as OO as possible, because I think > ultimately it leads to better, more extendable and readable software.

So, make sure that *only* the required classes are loaded on each execution. -- Maxim Maletsky [EMAIL PROTECTED]--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message --- If the server crashes, it is definetly NOT fault of your scripts, the server/php should return errors when there is something wrong, not crash. Remember that on multithreaded server you are taking other requests down too. The server, php, some extenssion might have been miscompiled, wrong versions of libraries are used, there is a bug, anything. But you should not be able to take server down from a script language.
Take a look at extenssions used, if any of them is unstable/experimental

It appears your site is causing the webserver to segfault (crash), which isI asked for a copy of the logfiles she talked about:
why nothing comes up some times - these crashes are logged in the main Apache
logfile, which is why you saw nothing in your site logfile when this happened.
I don't know exactly what is causing it to crash, but it is definately
something in your PHP code.

As far as I can tell, the error I receive (basically a "document contained
no data" error) is the result of the server shitting itself because of
ANOTHER script on my site, that was accessed before it.
This makes debugging even worse, because I don't even know what script to
look in!
It could be in any include()'d file in my header or footer, or the guts of
any script on my site!! Yay!!
The other possibility is that the crash occurs on the actual script I'm
calling, which IS a bit easier to debug... I think!
The sysadmin has pretty much ruled out memory leaks:
I checked the httpd processes
to see if any memory was leaking (if the memory usage climbs constantly,
memory is being leaked), but it was all fine.
Has any one got any suggestions on how I might track down this bug, or
ascertain which script/include file is causing the server to segfault?

All,
I have a problem sending Multipart - MIME (plaintext + html) email....
$bodyPlaintext = " (PLAINTEXT)";
$bodyHTML = " (HTML CODE)";
$headers = "";
$headers .= "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP " . phpversion();
$subject = "Alert! Confirmation!";
//unique boundary
$boundary = uniqid("HTMLBODY");
//add From: header
//$headers = "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\r\n";
//specify MIME version 1.0
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
//tell e-mail client this e-mail contains//alternate versions
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary =
$boundary\r\n\r\n";
//message to people with clients who don't
//understand MIME
$headers .= "This is a MIME encoded message.\r\n\r\n";
//plain text version of message
$headers .= "--$boundary\r\n" .
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n\r\n";
$headers .= chunk_split(base64_encode($bodyPlaintext));
//HTML version of message
$headers .= "--$boundary\r\n" .
"Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n\r\n";
$headers .= chunk_split(base64_encode($bodyHTML));
sent with:
mail($email, $subject, "", $headers);
Now... the problem I have is some people are reporting they get the
Multi-part stuff as the body... for others it'll work as wanted... i.e.
display Plaintext or render the HTML as wanted.
Anyone had this problem?

I have al for loop that looks something like this:
$checkCurrName = "SELECT imgName FROM $db_img ORDER BY imgName DESC";
$resultCurrName = mysql_query($checkCurrName, $db);
for ($i = 0; $i < $n; $i++){
list($currName) = mysql_fetch_row($resultCurrName);
$newName = $currName++;
print($newName);
//insert $newName into db
}
The problem is that I get the first printout right (the current value in
the database + 1) but all after that equal the first one, it looks
like i’m not getting the newest value from the database after the first
loop.
Any Ideas about this
Thanks, David

Are you sure $n is being set somewhere?
Why not do it like this:
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($resultCurrName))
{
print $row[0]+1;
//do rest of whatever...
}
