compared to the php setcookie command which didnt always set on all

Change your Netscape preferences to "warn me before accepting any cookies".
Is Netscape getting the cookies?
Look at the cookie Netscape stored in your Cookies file. Does it seem to
have what you would expect?
You *ARE* doing all of this on an SSL site with https:// throughout,
correct?...

attached mail follows:
While building a simple feedback form, I came across what seemed like a puzzling error(?) in the manual.
After the user has filled the form I call for the mail() function. To do so, I referred to the manual about the mail function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php
"...Please also note that the cc: and bcc: headers are case sensitive and should be written as Cc: and Bcc: on Win32 systems."
Since I Am using a Win32 system, and accustomed with the many 'nuances' involved in running PHP on Windows, I followed to the letter.
<?php
/* subject and message are arguments returned from the form */
$headers = "From: Me <Memyplace.com>\r\nCc: someonelsewherever.com\r\nBcc: logmyplace.com";
mail($address, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
When I ran the script IE repeatedly launched an error message saying the page can't be opened, and the connection with the server has been reset. The mail of course wasn't sent, as well. I tried a few different ways to write the headers argument, but none of them worked unless I removed the 'cc' and 'bcc' ones. Then finally I gave up, and wrote them case insensitive.
$headers = "cc: someonelsewherever.com\r\nbcc: logmyplace.com";
To my surprise that worked perfectly, and produced no error at all, despite of the explicit warning in the manual.
It really is no biggie, the script Is Working. But it is interesting, as I usually assume that on these matters the manual is accurate. I also checked the PHP Manual Errata (http://www.php.net/manual/browse-errata.php) , but no one seems to report this error before.
I would appreciate it if someone would clear the matter, as it seems very unlikely to me that the fault is in the manual, rather than in my system. I am using Apache 1.3.12 and PHP 4.0.6, on a Win32 (95) system.

This depends more on the mailing software you use that Win32-ness. There might even exist some lame-ass Un*x software somewhere that insists on case-sensitivity, which is still in accordance with RFC-spec, though somewhat niggardly so.

Me <Memyplace.com> is the trouble-maker. I dunno exactly if you can only
use xxxyyy.zzz or what, but for sure what you got ain't working...
> $headers = "cc: someonelsewherever.com\r\nbcc: logmyplace.com;
Ah, but now the From: is not in there, so it works.

Hi there,
First the code:
---
$invdate = "14.8.2001";
echo "$invdate\n";
list($day, $month, $year) = split(".", $invdate);
echo "$year-$month-$day";
---
Somehow, the second echo outputs only "--" as it should be "2001-8-14". Any idea why this happen and how this could be avoided?
Thanks,

Change the third line to read:
list($day, $month, $year) = split("\.", $invdate);

Or change: split(".", $invdate)
To: explode(".", $invdate)
Since you aren't using the regex overhead anyway.

split uses Regular Expressions.
This means that a whole slew of characters like [, ], |, \, $, ^, and [drum roll please] '.' are "special".
Specifically, "." means "any damn character at all".
You could 'escape' the "." character with file://\\. and all would be good
But, it would be way easier (and more efficient if you're doing a lot of these) to use http://php.net/explode instead, wherein *NO* characters are "special" (other than the usual ones for PHP itself, of course.)
As a bonus, you save yourself the headache of trying to understand Regular Expressions. :-)
list($day, $month, $year) = explode(".", $invdate);
Besides, blowing things up is much more fun than just chopping them with an axe :-) :-) :-)

Do you get this error output? What number? If not, add this:
echo implode("<BR>\n", $output);
Are the Perl scripts world-executable? Do they start with #! /usr/bin/perl, or are you relying on shell configuration to "know" they are Perl scripts, which PHP's shell probably won't?
Does either Perl script access other files to which "nobody" might not have access?
Why are you using Perl anyway? :-)

It should just work.
Your page *IS* trying to return some HTML as well as dealing with the uploaded file, right?...
With the segfault, read the instructions on http://bugs.php.net about generating a back-trace to submit.
You may want to back off of the -dev version (development == untested) and go with an actual release.

Why is the sprintf in there?...

Under Un*x, compare the files using:
diff original copy
Or, just use a text-editor to A/B them.
It's possible that the OS is allocating file segments in "chunks" differently depending on how the file is created, I think... And it's reporting the actual allocated bytes, not the true file size.

I dunno about the Interbase part, but you need to have a separate script just for the image, since that's a separate HTTP request from a web-page.
This separate file needs to send out the right header for GIF images: <?php header("Content-type: image/gif"); ?>
You then need to get the GIF data out of Interbase, and echo it out.
Since echo-ing error messages will not be visible in image data, you may wish to use http://php.net/log_error and view your Apache logs for any errors you think you might be getting.
You can also comment out the header line and see what you get by surfing directly to the image URL.

Actually, you're not... Sorry. The fact that you want to store data in flat files, and that you want to store CREDIT CARD INFO the way you describe tells me that you haven't read enough.

Those are nice features, *IF* the information is stored and accessed properly.

Consider moving to a different server. $24.95/month should get you everything you need including MySQL *UNLESS* you're a high-volume site with 10,000+ hits/day or heavy bandwidth like audio/video.

.htaccess and htpasswd would be okay for AUTHENTICATION of a few people, but if your server is running PHP as a Module, you're better off using PHP to do the HTTP Authentication. See the PHP manual online for sample code. http://php.net/
Authenticating a user as a specific customer is COMPLETELY SEPARATE from safely storing their credit card information.

Don't.
md5 is useless for this, and developing your own cipher is out-and-out silly unless you are a cryptography expert.
When Amazon et al store a credit card number, they have a very specific custom setup for that, involving:
A separate dedicated computer *NOT* directly connected to the Internet to store the cc info. These machines are: accessible via a SECOND Ethernet card in the web-servers invisible to the outside world only accept connections to the Database server -- no other software installed only accept data from that one Ethernet cable physically accessible only to trusted few
Further, even their web-servers are DEDICATED machines, not shared-access at an ISP. These machines will have an extremely limited number of users able to directly access them. Yours has several hundred untrusted users.
In short, if you are balking at $24.95 a month for MySQL, your budget is *NOWHERE* *NEAR* within reach of the hardware/software/facilities required to safely STORE credit card numbers.
By all means, feel free to hook up with a third-party firm to process your credit cards in real-time.
But you'll have to forego the STORAGE of credit card info feature for now.

Hi,
I agree completly with him. You should go through another entity for payment. You should go through some company that ensures you reliability and security. Here in Europe there are a lot of histories about company databases being hacked and loosing up to 15.000 cc numbers. By no way you could get the security these companies can offer you.
Try these ones (I do not endorse to any of these companies or have no information about them) ccbill.com or americanbank.com. I recomend you browsing through the net for more.
Also for the private information you should use SSL in the trasactions. Hope this helps

You wrote the path with backslashes (\). An inclusion path should be written with regular slashes:

Hello, I did an timed online quiz using session variables for my timer. It work fine.
When the user start the quiz, you check the time and calculate the duration of your quiz. exemple: 20:00 + 60 min = 21:00 So you register 2100 in a session variable
Each subsequent request you make shure the current time is still below 2100 or you stop the quiz and tell user.

I'm trying to update a number in a text file using eregi_replace.
The original line is:
$registrationLimit = 100;
and I'd like to change it to:
$registrationLimit = 300;
now, 100 appears multiple times throughout the file, so I have to match on the whole string, not just 100. I used the following code: (this may wrap in your mail client)
$contents = eregi_replace("registrationLimit = ([0-9]+);","registrationLimit = " . $form_registrationLimit . ";",$contents);
which works, but I'd like to find a more elegant way to do this, rather than rebuilding the entire string. I tried:
$contents = eregi_replace("registrationLimit = ([0-9]+);",\\1$form_registrationLimit,$contents);
but that only produces:
$100300
(in other words, it combines the two values and strips out the "registrationLimit = " part...) After reading the manual, I understand why, but I'm hoping there's some similar such method where I can parenthesize a substring in the string pattern and then replace only that substring with my replacement string.
Any thoughts?

Looks to me like they're still using the form to process info. If you mean getting information into the various fields then you'll need something like this:
<input type="text" name="sometext" value="sometexthere" size=30 maxlength=100>
The 'value=' bit will insert the information into the form field when it outputs to the browser. There's similar constructs for every form tag available. Find yourself a reasonable form tutorial and it'll no doubt cover this sort of thing.
The php to do it is pretty much up to you - in the case of the site above they're going away and reading the web site for you.
> Would a javascipt function be any use to me?
I guess you could. That's not the way that the web site you refer to is doing it.

a simple HTML/PHP is enough.

the same form and in the <input> fields use value attributes. i.e: <input type="text" name="title" size=20 value="<?=$title?>">
if the form was not submitted then $title will be empty and will show nothing, while if Title was submitted it will then reappear on the next page (which is obviously as same as the one before)

This comes from someone who has no experience with Postgres, but I suspect that you may be getting into trouble inside your for and foreach loops where you do apossibly huge number of inserts without freeing used result pointers. Try doing a pg_free_result after each insert and see if that helps.

I have a strange problem with PHP 4.0.4pl1 and above. It looks like including a file that contains classes can become a major performance bottleneck
My machine is an Intel Pentium ]I[ 667Mhz, 128Mb RAM running RedHat Linux 7.1; I installed PHP as a DSO module. I used ab (Apache Benchmark) for benchmarking. The following application runs a very simple query and outputs the result:
<?php $db = pg_pconnect("dbname=jokes user=foo password=xxxxxxxxx"); ?> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"> <html> <head> <title>test</title> </head> <body> <?php $res = pg_exec($db, "SELECT * FROM j_jokes ORDER BY posted DESC LIMIT 10"); echo "<table>"; for ($i=0; $i<pg_numrows($res);$i++) { echo "<tr>"; $row = pg_fetch_row($res, $i); for ($c=0;$c<count($row);$c++) echo "<td>$row[$c]</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; ?> </body> </html>
It can process up to 200 requests per second depending on the size of the dataset. Sometimes it can do even more than that. I didn't optimize Apache and PostgreSQL for performance.
However, the following "application" <?php require_once("Smarty.class.php"); require_once("DB.php"); ?>
can process about 25 requests per second.
My applications use Smarty, Pear DB and my own classes from several include files. Thus, they can hardly handle 10 requests per second. I tried to benchmark them in many different ways and I figured out that *including* a class takes a lot of time. Using those classes doesn't seem to change anything dramatically. Is it an inherent problem of using classes with PHP or is there something I can do about it?

See, there's also a time needed for the server to read the included file - an extra effort for your hard disk. If you'd put everything in one file it would work for you faster, but, of course, less portable.

Of course the absolute safest way besides encryting your PHP is to just store your state secrets in files outside the web server's document tree.
i.e. if your web server's document root is /var/www
<?php require("/var/super-secret/super-functions.php"); if ($theanswer == 42) { echo (findthequestion($theanwer)); } ?>
then even if you screw up the web server config and .php files are sent back unrendered all you expose is what's in the file above but not what was included/required statements.
This is an excellent way to protect sensitive info like database passwords too.

If your php-code is on a web-server which gives access to other than you they can read your code. An example could be other people being hosted on the same server..
Regards, Søren
attached mail follows:
its a problem because the code is not compiled into binary file, and then every one who can browse the directory ( using ftp for example ) can view your code.
To prevent this ( as root ) I chroot every user that log to ftp to another directory so they cant go out and browse the /etc /php-directories or what ever.
The problem still stays if you open php to system commands like `echo /etc/passwd` or using system() ....

A problem is also that other web-programers can read your source code through PHP. An example from my page is this: My homepage is here: /hotel/<my domain>/WWW
I can make a php-script that opens /hotels/<some other domain>/WWW , list the files, view them, steal code from others etc etc.
Hope what I wrote gave some sort of meaning :-)

I see nothing rude about his post. Your's on the other hand ... well, let's just say that telling someone to "stfu" and then insisting that they're rude and need to learn how to behave is both ironic, sad, and a bit amusing. ;)

-or-
foreach($HTTP_POST_VARS as $k => $v){ echo "$k => $v<br>\n"; }
-or-
while(list($k, $v) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)){ echo "$k => $v<br>\n"; }

Now that doesn't show all the html I use in the body but it will give you an idea.. as far as I can tell this script should work and set the content-type to text/html but when it sends the email the

is changed to
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii and I get this after it's set the content type
X-BadHeader: html; charset=iso-8859-1
but from looking in the PHP manual and php books I have the way I've tried to set it should be right.
if you want to look at my page with the script on let me know and I will send it to you off the list.

Hi peter,
You've got a space and a newline right after the headers ($headers).. they shouldn't be there.. and i'd put a \n after 64bit
I don't know if that will solve your problem, but from what i understand of headers, it should help :)
by the way, make sure that your "$headers \nContent-Type: .. etc" string is all on the same line...
also, why aren't you using the $headers variable for your extra header information?
Cheers

Hi everyone,
I am somewhat new at the use of php and would appreciate if someone could help me with a question re "location bar"
How can a location bar such as the sample below be generated in php to be displayed in web pages ...
Location : home:/category:sub_1:/page title
Is there a specific setup needed in terms of the directory structure on the server? Or will this only function with database type website?

if you're asking on how to show where you are, then this is what you could do:
Create an array of page names:
ie:
$page_name = Array(
'/' => 'Home', '/page1' => 'Page One'
);
... and so on....
Then just do
echo $page_name[strtolower($PHP_SELF)];
This is only appropriate for small static sites, and is not really a solution. try to extend this idea, with maybe use of databases and go ahead.
Also, look for such scripts. Tons of code was written already and some module like this, I think, you can easily find.

I don't believe such locations can't be displayed. Usually location contains: http://server/directory/file.ext The ':' used in the location denotes the port number that is used to connect to the web server.
Maybe javascript can do that. Don't know exactly how.
Good luck.

The following code:
$url = "http://www.php.net/"; print ( implode( "", file( $url ) ));
causes my browser to sit and twiddle it's thumbs for ages and then produce:
Warning: file("http://www.php.net/") - Bad file descriptor in myfile.php on line 33
Warning: Bad arguments to implode() in myfile.php on line 33
If, however, I explictly use the IP address:
$url = "http://208.247.106.187/"; print ( implode( "", file( $url ) ));
it will successfully dump a copy of the php front page.
This says to me that PHP can't resolve names. It is not a problem with the linux box it's running on, given that I ran "ping www.php.net" on that particular box to find the IP address.
Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make it work?

Hello:
I am using Sessions for user authentication in one of our sites. The problem is now so many users are calling us saying that they are not able to access the site. They have got IE v 4.0 . Are there any problems with sessions in older browser versions. Could anybody please suggest a way to solve this issue.

I think I know what it is. The construction I mentioned to avoid the reloading used three pages to login: the login-page, the validation page and then some page that produces output to the user. What you do, is include that output page in the validation page (authentication.php). You shouldn't do that. Instead of the include('super.php') you should use header("Location: super.php") and instead of include('ordinary.php') you should use header("Location: ordinary.php"). If you include super.php/ordinary.php you still don't leave authentication.php. That means that one can still reload authentication.php. Then the browser asks for resubmitting the form. If you use header() instead of include() you actually leave authentication.php and go to a different page. The user can ofcourse reload that page, but that page wasn't actually the result of a form-submital so the page will then just be reloaded and no information will be resubmitted. Even if one pushes Back from that page, he/she will not go back to authentication.php but to login.html. And gone is your problem.
I think this should be your solution...
Oh... btw:
in authentication.php: session_register('$emp_id'); should be: session_register("emp_id");
and in logout.php: session_unregister($emp_id); should be session_unregister("emp_id");

That question was just a small part of my message. I was explaining that you don't need to destroy the session when someone closes the browser. You were asking if you needed to take some action if the browser closes. But you never can tell when it closes. That's why I mentioned (not really asked) how you thought to detect the browser closing.

Other possibilities? Why not just utilize the second argument of the LIMIT function with a fairly simple SQL query?
Here's a portion of a script I wrote, modified to be an example on this matter:
<?php
$articles_display_limit = 5; // set the number of articles to be displayed on each page
/* $article_number sets the position in the database from which the current query results will begin from. $article_number is passed to the script as a GET method variable (i.e article.php?record_number=5) */
$articles = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM articles LIMIT $article_number,$articles_display_limit");
$next = $article_number + $articles_display_limit; // next page's starting point $prev = $article_number - $articles_display_limit ; // previous page's starting point $total_number_of_articles = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT NULL FROM articles"));
/* display this page's articles*/
/* determine if a 'Previous' button is required */ if ($prev >= 0) { echo '<a href="article.php?article_number=' . $prev . '">Previous</a>' . "\n"; }
/* determine if a 'Next' button is required */ if ($next < $total_number_of_articles) { echo '<a href="article.php?article_number=' . $next . '">Next</a>' . "\n"; }
?>
This should do the trick if I haven't modified too much. There's a good but a bit messy article about it in PHPBuilder: http://phpbuilder.com/columns/rod20000221.php3 The script is much more experienced and advanced than my own.

Actually the mysql_query() seems to accept only one statement at a time.
Any work around so i can do query suchs:
mysql_query(" SELECT 1+1; SHOW DATABASES; USE database1; SELECT * FROM table1; ");
Just multiple commands seperated with ';' ? (as if using the Mysql command prompt)
attached mail follows:
You cant do this.
Its even recommended to drop the `;' from the end of the sql command.
You can go around using array to store the sql statements and use foreach to run mysql_query with thee sql statement.
But I don't think its right way to do thing !
If you intention was to do update one after other then you should use locks or use Postgres :)

Generally ISPs either give you shell rights or access to PHPMyAdmin, if they give access to a MySQL database. Otherwise, you'd never be able to add tables, or modify data. If PHPMyAdmin is installed, you can general locate it in the following manner: your_url/phpmyadmin
So http://www.my_crazy_domain.com/phpmyadmin
You'll need to enter your database username and password, but this will allow you to upload INSERT statements, perform routine MySQL tasks, as well as run SQL queries.
Otherwise you need to request shell access from your ISP. Some ISPs only provide it when asked.

Well first of a PHP script is not a JavaScript. You need to actually use a php statement to include a php, text, or other file type. There are two methods for including a file, the general include, or the more stringent, require file. I've included a sample if both statements below:
............ <html> <?php require("/web/ftp/biz/path_to_file/html/includes/globals.php3"); include("/web/ftp/biz/path_to_file/html/includes/location.php3"); ?> <?php require($gBasePath . "/includes/header.php"); include($gBaseURL . "/includes/header.php"); ?> <?php require("/includes/header.php"); include("/includes/header.php"); ?> ..............
You'll note some differences:
The first require statement basically indicates the page shouldn't run or display unless this file is found. The path_to_file is given implicitly from the server root rather than from the .html folder. You can require a file for many reasons, but in general I do so only if the information absolutely needs to be included on the page. So for template pages: header, footer, and startBody, closeBody statements are all required, as well as a global file and a config file, just in case, we rapidly ad a MySQL statement.
The second statement is an include statement, which can use absolute or relative path.
The following two statements use the same method, but call on specifications defined in the "globals" file. The global file defines a BaseURL (http://www.yourdomain.net), and a BasePath (/web/path_to_file). Once defined they can be used to specify a full path in more relative terms. This is useful for files that are called throughout the site, since if your always using a header, on ever page, regardless of directory, you don't want to code for it ../includes/header.php on one page and ../../../includes/header.php on the next. A global base or global url, will keep the code portable, short, and sweet.
The last two statements basically specify relative paths, for including files within the same folder.

In MS SQL server, table data can be uploaded on webserver by using the Enterprise Manager by using the export option.
Is there any feature in Mysql to upload the data on webserver? I understand that it can be done with the help of SQL script file. This is the only way or some another way also is there? Also, Pl. let me know: 1. How to create SQL script file, with what extension it is to be saved? The format? 2. How to call/execute/run that file using php?
Can anyone send me sample SQL script file?
Thanks in advance??..

Hi all!
I'm trying to build a registration system for a community site that I'm building, and was wondering if people could give me advice or tell me about problems they've been having??
I'm planning to let people register with a username and password (encrypted), and then make them login with that, and thus putting a cookie on their machine.
If the cookie is detected the next time, they don't have to login, but if it is, then they do.
Sounds pretty simple??
Any advice?
TIA!
sunny

I have pages that uses session for security that looks something like this:
<?php session_start();
if( !isset($uid) ) { include("include/auth.inc.php"); auth_user(); }
more code... ?>
so $uid tells me if the user is logged on or not...
but what if somebody calls the script directly from the address bar like this: http://server/script.php?uid=10
wouldn't this be a security problem? ____________________________ . Christian Dechery (lemming) . http://www.tanamesa.com.br . Gaita-L Owner / Web Developer

Christian,
This can indeed be a security issue. Try using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS{"uid"} instead. It's a saver solution. Then one cannot just use ?uid=10 in order to fool you. At least, not in that way.

If you test $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["uid"] instead, you'll know that it came from a session and not from a GET variable.

I know, I know, I have a lot of work to do...I shouldn't be doing this. I did get to play with PCRE regexps here, though...lotsa cool features over eregs!. Anyway, here's a *** NEW!!! IMPROVED!!! *** version of smart_ucwords(), that's probably way too much overkill. I did some quick tests, seems to work. Beware of email-induced line-wrapping, particularly in the comment black & quoted strings:
<?php
function smart_ucwords($String, $ForceCase=1, $CapitalizeTrailing=1) {
################################################################################
#
# A more sophisticated approach to title-casing.
#
## PARAMETERS
##################################################################
#
# $String string Input string.
# $ForceCase 0|1 If true, will force title case (only
first letter
# capitalized, no matter what case the
string is in.
# $CaptializeTrailing 0|1 If true, will capitalize a normally-excepted
# word if it is the last word in the
string. So, a
# string like 'Shot In the Dark, A'
works properly.
#
## USAGE NOTES
#################################################################
#
# The Exception List words should be in the case you desire;
normally this will
# be lowercase.
#
# The Invariant List contains words and titles (eg; NASA, MySQL, PostGreSQL,
# eBusiness) whose capitalization should be fixed, no matter what.
#
# If one of these arrays is not to be used, simply set it to array().
#

################################################################################
$EXCEPTION_LIST = array( 'a', 'an', 'and', 'at', 'but', 'for', 'nor', 'or', 'some', 'the', 'to', 'with' ); $INVARIANT_LIST = array( 'NASA', 'MySQL', 'PostGreSQL', 'eBusiness' ); # First, strip & save leading & trailing whitespace
preg_match( '/^(\s*?)(.*)(\s*)$/U', ($ForceCase ? strtolower($String) : $String), $StringParts );
# Replace exception words
$String = ucwords($StringParts[2].($CapitalizeTrailing ? '' : ' '));
foreach ($EXCEPTION_LIST as $Word) { $String = preg_replace("/(\s+)$Word(\s+)/i", "\\1$Word\\2", $String); }
# Replace invariants
$String = " $String "; foreach ($INVARIANT_LIST as $Word) { $String = preg_replace("/(\s+)$Word(\s+)/i", "\\1$Word\\2", $String); }
# Replace whitespace and return
return $StringParts[1].trim($String).$StringParts[3];
}

Hi,
In MS SQL server, table data can be uploaded on webserver by using the Enterprise Manager by using the export option.
Is there any feature in Mysql to upload the data on webserver? I understand that it can be done with the help of SQL script file. This is the only way or some another way also is there? Also, Pl. let me know: 1. How to create SQL script file, with what extension it is to be saved? The format? 2. How to call/execute/run that file using php?
