[PHP] Turning magic quotes on/off.

2001-01-16 Thread void

Hi,

I just struggled with quoting in php3 and php4. Traditional
old-style raw data would be nice to have but using
set_magic_quotes_runtime (false) doesn't help. Should that
turn it off anyway?

Another thing not documented to me is get_magic_quotes_gpc (). What
does the gpc part mean?

Best regards,
Sven Klose

[PHP] building a search engine ??

2001-07-12 Thread void

I am thinking of building a search engine with the grep command for our
site.
i have my information in a mysql db,
but i am putting it back into text files.
reoson being is that maybe the mysql db goes down under hevy load,
and then our site would look like a tree with out branches.
So i put all the info in the text files.

now for the search engine i have a form that posts of the pattern.
on the page receiving this pattern as say $searchpattern
i do the command
grep --binary-files=without-match -lri "$searchpattern" $path

is this too resource intensive ?

How does this idea sound ?

please let me know.
thanx in advance for any replies.

[PHP] stop a file called foo.bar

2001-08-03 Thread void

stop a file called foo.bar from being downloaded with a web server ?

Say you'r web site's name is foobar.net.

..and...

Script-kiddy Johny knows that,
but also knows that you'r secret file is called foo.bar
and it is saved in the root dir. of you'r web site.

in a http browser little Johny
can simply type in http://www.foobar.net/foo.bar";
to download it, since the web server (i am on)
will trigger the clients download box to open,
because its not a wrapped extension, or php, or htm, or so .

I have looked into the .htaccess file and added the directive
IndexIgnore *.*
there'r millions of directives and i am looking at them now,

But please tell me if there IS NOT a directive I can add to the htacces file
to keep "little Johny" from downloading the file.
Because then i might just look the whole day long for nothing !

Thanx a lot for your time

Ben

enjoy the day :-)
