Hi, I'm looking for a host that has CURL and Cybercash installed, but so
many good hosts out there do not have this installed and aren't willing to
budge on there build of php. I'm wondering only because i'm not a Unix/Linux

that I could load these on demand? and if so, how do I accomplish this?

A host that gives you dl() in a module environment would be not very secure,
as I understand it...

It really only makes sense to install CyberCash on an SSL box, no? And an
ISP shouldn't be letting you upload arbitrary code to a shared server that's
allegedly SSL, since that's inherently insecure, I think.

What you *might* be able to do is get them to let you have PHP as suExec'ed
CGI binary so you can dl() into that, which runs as your user, so you can
only hurt yourself.

You'd use a different extension for those PHP-as-CGI pages, and not hurt
performance on the other pages.

Hi Anna,

Have you ever heard of PHP Library (PHPLIB) ?

It is quite simple to install and will give you possibility of easily switching between databases as well as choosing when and how to receive the database errors. It also has a whole bunch of other features - a very good base for development. If you wonder where to get PHP Library here's the link www.phplib.org

Because it's a pain to have error messages popping up all the time? Here is what I do with every query I every write:

$query="yada yada"; $result=mysql_query($query, $connection); if($result=="" || $result=="0") { //if it is a page for my use, I print the error // if it is a page for the general public, I email the //error to myself, and print "There was a problem //completing your request", or something like that. print "Error : ".mysql_error($connection)."<br>\n"; } else { while($row=mysql_fetch_row($result)) { //do whatever you want to do with the data. } }

I greatly prefer this to display "0 is not a mysql result index" for everyone to see, if/when something goes wrong.

You'll probably need to compile PHP from source to get a CGI (standalone) binary.

It's actually easier than messing with rpm, if you ask me.:-)

Oh -- Once you have that PHP CGI binary, you can run it from command line or Perl or shell script or whatever. Use it just like you would Perl with #!/usr/sbin/php or whatever.

Try disabling mod_gzip, and also ZendOptimizer.

Wild Guess:

You know how you need *two* newlines after that GET to make it go? I think you can throw more stuff in there, and *then* the two newlines. In other words, it's just like headers...

fputs($data1, "GET / HTTP/1.0\n"); fputs($data1, "HTTP_USER_AGENT spiderman\n"); fputs($data1, "\n"); #end of headers

This is purely wild speculation on my part, but it does make sense it would work this way...

Using FRAMESET?

If you are doing FRAMESET for "look" or scrolling control, you can send all your links back to the FRAMESET page with any ?page=page2.php&var1=42&var2=yes GET data.

Then, in your FRAMESET page, you can "pass down" the $QUERY_STRING to the individual pages:

Check the FAQ. http://php.net/FAQ.php

If you really mean to compare them as *CGI* for performance... Why? CGI performance is grossly inferior to Module, no?...

It used to report errors by default a long time ago, I think...

Maybe you upgraded PHP? Or upgraded, but never restarted Apache, and only now is the upgrade actually kicking in?

Sorta off-topic, but it's all to get files with no extension to be run through PHP...

Okay, since DefaultType is just plain broken on FreeBSD4.1Release&Apache1.3.14, I tried to simulate it with mod_rewrite:

RewriteRule !.*\..* - [T=application/x-httpd-php]

This actually works and everything (which is amazing since Regex and I never get along too well...)

Only problem is, *that* breaks the whole "auto-completion" of trailing slashes on directories and/or DirectoryIndex.

I tried to fix that using:

RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^(.+[^/])$ $1/ [R]

which I pretty much stole verbatim from: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/rewriteguide.html but it didn't seem to have any real effect... Actually, it seems to sometimes add a trailing slash to the files that have no extension, but the page loads okay...

I tried moving the trailing slash fix both before and after my DefaultType rule, and it didn't seem to behave any differently.

Any Rewrite gurus in the house? Is there a "mod_rewrite under FreeBSD mailing list" somewhere?...

PS DefaultType on FreeBSD really is broken. Honest. I copied and pasted the DefaultType from the httpd.conf line above, so I know I spelled that right. And ditto for the mime/type. Besides, I can use ForceType, and it "works", only ForceType breaks all the stuff that *does* have an extension, like GIFs. And I tried moving DefaultType to several different places within httpd.conf: Where the default had it, inside the Directory I want changed, above that Directory, below it, at the very bottom...

Well, I ran your code through weblint which (and this is pretty normal behaviour for that old fusspot) spewed out an A4 page of errors!

But the trick with weblint is to work from the last error backwards (the exact opposite of what you'd do with a C compiler).

(I called it login.php -- I may want to pinch some of the code sometime!)

login.php(0): no closing </HTML> seen for <HTML> on line 1. login.php(0): no closing </BODY> seen for <BODY> on line 1. login.php(0): no closing </HTML> seen for <HTML> on line 27. login.php(0): no closing </BODY> seen for <BODY> on line 27. login.php(0): no closing </CENTER> seen for <CENTER> on line 28. login.php(0): no closing </TABLE> seen for <TABLE> on line 29. login.php(0): no closing </TABLE> seen for <TABLE> on line 63. login.php(0): no closing </HTML> seen for <HTML> on line 69. login.php(0): no closing </BODY> seen for <BODY> on line 69.

And here we see the dreaded missing </TABLE>.

Someone made the point that it's best to develop on Netscape, and I think this is true for HTML. It's also true, to a point, for Javascript, while the Java applet issue is pretty much that the only way to get many Java applets to run is to use Netscape: if they'll run (by some miracle) in IE, they'll run in Netscape, so develop on IE. What a mess.

Weblint is -- I think -- available for Windows. It's a fussy old tool, but really usefull for spotting those mistakes which the code blinded coder can't spot in an editor with colour syntax highlighting. It's saved me from throwing the monitor out of the (X)window on several occasions.

You don't need to be a genius to know that HTML that is seen in IE and not in NN is missing at least one </TABLE> tag.

IE is not that picky about closing tables :)
