Earlier versions of 4.x would auto-create variables for you. 4.2 no
longer does that. Your Apache server is probably using an older version of
PHP, or has register_globals turned on. Use
$variable = $_POST['variable']; // or
echo $_POST['variable'];
or, extract($_POST) or extract($HTTP_POST_VARS) to create all POSTed
variables.

Read this link: http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.registerglobals.php
Having register_globals set to on can make it easier for someone to exploit
poorly written code (there are examples on the page).
I like to use register_globals=off too because I know explicitly where each
variable is coming from (i.e. POST, GET, COOKIE, SESSION, etc).

Hello List -
I am having a problem with fsockopen since my ISP upgraded their linux
server. The same function works just fine on another linux server and PHP
version (using a different ISP).
This fsockopen function previously worked as expected, returning within the
specified timeout (2 sec) if a socket connection attempt to client is
rejected, eg by a firewall.
For connection to port 1720, (then immediate close of socket if fsockopen
returns true) I use :
$fsock=fsockopen( $address, 1720 , &$errno, &$errmesg , 2);
I have also tried 2.0 (float) rather than 2 as per PHP manual, this makes
no difference.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php
The specific symptoms :
No listener on client port 1720 : Succeeds
Listening client socket on port 1720 Succeeds
Client firewall configured to allow connections Succeeds
Client firewall configured to deny connections Fails
The fail mode is that fsockopen does *not* return after the specified
timeout, and the script itself eventually times out at the default 30 sec.
Working configuration : PHP 4.1.2, Linux Redhat 2.2.20, Apache 1.3.22
Http Env vars :i386-redhat-linux-gnu
Non-working configuration : PHP 4.0.6, Linux Redhat 2.4.9-21smp i686,
Apache 1.3.27
Http Env vars : i386-slackware-linux-gnu
Anybody able to offer any help or point me at a way to step round this
problem ? I thought of setting up an XML feed by HTTP Post from one machine
to another - they are on diffrent networks so I worry about latency.
Thanks for any help or suggestions to fix this problem, or any anecdotal
evidence I can use to fix it !!

Hello.
Here is the question:
I have apache 2 and php4.3 installed as cgi script (not an apache2 module),
so, in apache2 config i've create a webDir, it normally works from IE,
so, then a've load apache2 mod_dav and it starts working too (from Network
Places i can add this folder).
Now, the question itself, how i can add control of this folder to PHP ?
i mean, it is possible to emulate WebDAV protocol using php ?
So it will be as dynamic content of the folder not an actual dav directory.
In other words, i need to pass dav requests from apache to php?
Give me some idea how i can do thah ?
Big thanks.
Sorry for my english, just teaching...

I answered my own question with a little digging on the PHPBuilder page...
is_file() and is_dir() will report everything as a directory unless you
first chdir() to the directory. After I added the chdir() it worked. Anyone
know if that's going to be changed in the future?
(I love recursion!)
<?
function Check_For_Slash($path) {
if (substr($path, (strlen($path) - 1), 1) != "/") {
$path = $path . "/";
}
return($path);
}
function Get_Directory_Listing($path) {
$base_dir = "/inetpub/wwwroot"; // all paths will be relative to
webserver
$base_dir = Check_For_Slash($base_dir);
if ($dir_handle = opendir($base_dir . $path)) {
while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) {
$path = Check_For_Slash($path);
chdir($base_dir . $path);
if (($file != ".") && ($file != "..")) {
if (is_dir($file)) {
chdir($base_dir . $path . $file);
print($file . "<DIR>\n");
Get_Directory_Listing($path . $file);
print("</DIR>\n");
}
elseif (is_file($file)) {
print("<A HREF='" . $path . $file . "'>" . $file .
"</A><BR>\n");
}
else {
print("I don't know what " . $file . " is. <BR>\n");
}
}
}
closedir($dir_handle);
}
}
Get_Directory_Listing("/somedir/public");
?>

[... skiped ..]
there is a easier way to get is_file & is_dir working on win32:
u just need to put full path to file or dir
is_file("c:\web\index.html");
I've had such a problem.

Passing the whole path does work as well.
I wrote the attached script so departments in our company could put files on
out internal website by dragging and dropping to a shared folder. I have to
find away around the "This page has expired" message when you click the
"back" button but other than that it works fine.
Let me know if you like it.
Any suggestions on the expiration issue?

Hello, I'm pretty new to this list, and to hosting my own server and
running PHP.
I run a Windows 2000 Server box with IIS5. My box is currently running
Chkdsk so can't look up my version of PHP or MySQL.. but I only installed
the latest versions about 2 months ago.
Lately my server has been crashing with a Stop error. The main error
message is 0x00000024. The MS help on this is a bit vague, as it says it
might be either hardware, or a incompatible driver, or another application
which is incompatible with W2K. However, Chkdsk just hit a couple of PHP
files it found it needed to delete.
Under verifying files, I get the message:
"Deleting corrupt attribute record (16, "")
from file record segment 21556."
Under the verifying indexes, I get the messsage:
"Deleting index entry post_reply_post.php in index $130 of file 27087.
Deleting index entroy POST_R~1.PHP in index $130 of file 27087."
I'm hoping this is not a hardware problem, but maybe something related to
PHP. I was wondering if any experts out there have experience with this. :)
I run a couple of PHP MySQL based message boards on my server.
Thanks,
Cynthia
