Onderwerp: [PHP] PHP on client-side

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a way develop client-side (browser-based)
applications for PHP? I see so many posts about using PHP to interact with
JavaScript - wouldn't it be cool if you could just tell your PHP code where
to run - server or client (similar to what ASP does with VBScript)? I know I
can't be the first person to think about this, but I've searched and can't
find anything about it. Any ideas/suggestions/resources?

From http://gtk.php.net

Too often PHP is thought of as only an HTML-embedded web scripting language. However, it is also a very full-featured general purpose language that can be used for much more. One of the goals behind this project was to prove that PHP can be used to write client-side GUI applications.

Re below, I am just curious if anybody on this list has already written a "significant" application using PHP/Gtk. I keep looking at Gtk, but it still seems to be too much shifting sand right now. I want to use these widgets et al for some applications that I would normally use Python for.

The great disadvantage seems, of course, the difficulty to port/use something in PHP/Gtk for Windows...

Yep, it's not. I misunderstood your question. Sorry.

-- Pavel a.k.a. Papi

attached mail follows:

It is possible, but you'd need to define the x-application/php or so mimetag in each and every client that you would want to parse the code -- thus reducing the platforms it runs on.

The fact that it is parsed on the server allows a great variaty of clients to read it - since they basically get html back.

I use php for scripts that run using crontabs on my servers, but I don't really think that PHP is usable in the same way as - for instance - JS or VBS.

I think one major hurdle with this is that the browser would have to be programmed to parse the Client-Side PHP. While you might have a shot at convincing the nice folks at Mozilla to do this, IE is by far the most used browser and I don't see MS implementing PHP into their browser anytime soon.

In addition, can you imagine having to learn to write PHP with browser incompatibilities as bad as JavaScript has? I shudder at the thought.

the only problem with PHPGTK is that if you make an app with it and you pass it on to your friend they have to have php installed and running on their machine to run your app. I've heard of some people actually running a small installer that installs php on the client machine so that they can run the PHPGTK app.. but that's about all i've heard. It's still in the earily stages of development.. and i would think that in a year or two it will be very well rounded..

Link in HTML like <a href="http://www.myserver.com/myfile.php?>>Link</a> And on the "myfile.php" you have to do this in the beginning of file:

session_start(); if (session_is_registered("Session")) { /* This code is run if Session called "Session" is registered */ };

Hopefully this helps you out.

What we have here: registering variable $Session into current session. This code works perfectly if session id is propogated normally. Bu what i need is to set session_id and session_name so it can resume given session by given id. Normally session id is propagating through cookie. I have set [ini] session.use_cookie = 0; So it passes GET/POST session_id propagating method. And using url as i wrote before it doesn't gets session id and starts new session :(( So i need somehow to force it to use known session_id and start session using this session_id.

Why don't you use session.use_cookie. When U use cookies for your sessions, you can use whatever URL you like. PHP won't care about that, and just use the cookie in order to determine the current session.

I appreciate the clearer, more detailed description. Unfortunately, I probably cannot help as much with this one. If it were my problem, I would try finding and downloading the source for the Sybase modules, then look for someone to contact in the notes. I would also exhaust any contacts I have with Sybase, mostly because much of the original code for the interface modules probably came from them originally (derived from their old C interface modules).

Another approach would be to try to unload the source for the Stored Procedure, and try to split up the queries (I believe the results you are seeing are produced by a UNION, but I'm not certain). Sybase can compile its query procedures on the fly, with only slightly longer run times, or you could create a new procedure from what you find and store that one.

Good Luck,

Warren Vail

No, you seem to have missed my point entirely. So I'll explain in a little more detail.

I run a stored procedure. Let's assume I run it from the interactive utility and not from PHP for the moment.

> SP_SOMETHING_OR_OTHER PARAM1 PARAM2 PARAM3

The database returns:

foo bar === === 10 20 30 40

field1 field2 field3 ====== ====== ====== string bla 15 nothing bla 12

As you can see, it returns TWO result sets. One with two numeric columns. The next with three columns, the first two string and the last numeric.

This is, of course, just an example.

Now back to the web interface.

If I use PHP, I get only the first result set. That is, I write something along the lines of:

$rs = sybase_query( "SP_SOMETHING_OR_OTHER PARAM1 PARAM2 PARAM3", $conn );

while ( $row = sybase_fetch_row( $rs ) ) {

echo $row[0]; // and so on

}

This will only display the results of the first result set - the one with the two fields, foo and bar.

There is no way for me to reach the second table generated by the query. This is supposed to be the significant table.

Now, in ASP, there is something like

set rs = rs.NextResultSet

Which sets the rs to the second result set, the one with the three fields of mixed types, at which point you loop, just like above, and retrieve the new information. This method or an equivalent of it is not in the PHP documented set of Sybase functions.

I hope I made myself clearer. And by the way, you don't have to sell me on the uselessness of ASP, the general uselessness of Microsoft etc. - I don't use any Microsoft products, even at work.

Just do a phpinfo(). There should be an environment-variable you should be able to use. The safest way to retrieve them ist getenv().

getenv('SAPI') perhaps?

You could also use a config-file. This way, you could run your scripts on more than two sites.

Paul,

You could check one of the following variables:

$HTTP_SERVER_VARS{"OSTYPE"} $HTTP_SERVER_VARS{"SERVER_NAME"} $HTTP_SERVER_VARS{"SERVER_ADDR"} $HTTP_SERVER_VARS{"HTTP_HOST"} or $HTTP_SERVER_VARS{"DOCUMENT_ROOT"}

Check phpinfo(), it gives some really usefull info.

Alternatively, you could check the $SERVER_SOFTWARE (or $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['SERVER_SOFTWARE'], depending on your config) variable; you'd have to parse the OS out of the returned string, though.

It should perform the optimizations automatically. However, the bottleneck in your case will be your image manipulation library (GD, ImageMagic, etc..), and you most likely won't see much of a speed increase with the optimizer.

attached mail follows:

Zend Optimizer will speed up the code, but I do not believe it crunches the size of files. If you need smaller files for a graph, use PNG or JPEG - not the GIF format. The GIF format is old and unoptimized in PHP/GD, so it gets really big in size unless you have something like ImageMagick to optimize it after it has been created.

PNGs are kind of like the new GIF format when working with PHP image generation. JPEG format is best reserved for photos and such.

My UNIX apache server that I host from seems to be preset to execute PHP code within html docs. That is, a php require statement within a ".html" file is included, executed, and sent to the browser.

Is this unusual? or standard? I ask because I would hope not to become dependent on including php code in html docs and have them switch a server setting back.

Of course, if that happens I guess I could rename my files from ".html" to ".php". But I really prefer to just having ".html" appear in the browser URL bar.

attached mail follows:

Apache can be set up to parse whatever files you like as .php (you could have .paul if you like...) - presumably your host has enabled this. If you have access to .htaccess files (or the main server config, httpd.conf), you can set this up on any Apache server with the line

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html

You can put as many extensions as you like in there, for example:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .html .phtml .foo .bar .baz .xyzzy

Although this is probably overkill :-)

Mayhaps with Apache it is possible to have the .html files in a subdirectory (for instance yourdomain.org/php/file.html to have the php mentioned) handled as PHP and the other dirs not. I agree that it is a waste of server time to send all html files through php.

Instead of trying to sort the result AFTER it returns from the query, you could use an ORDER BY clause in your query to sort the results prior to trying to output it?

I want to sort a result set from a mySQL query (see code below). I can't figure out how to properly sort the $result in the while loop.

I just want to alphabatize the search result.

Any suggestions how to do this?

Hi,

I have a function like so

function updateForm() { global $link; $query = "UPDATE badgers SET lname = '$lname', fname = '$fname' WHERE ID = '$ID'"; mysql_query( $query, $link ); }

is there a simple way to access the global form values without working out which method was used and then using the global keyword on the HTTP_POST_VARS / HTTP_GET_VARS??

This I have to disagree with. Without the %s %s, you are rolling dice as to whether the page will work or not. I never had this problem with Apache under win32, but I have with IIS. I would definitely leave them in there.

OK, and now the obvious one, are all your sites in one tree with the root directory of all of them being pointed at in the php.ini file? Or have you set up Virtual domains somehow in the php.ini file with the base of each site being pointed at? This killed me for almost 2 weeks. I had PHP installed when I changed from Apache to IIS, so all of my sites had to move to the location of the wwwroot for IIS, well, I forgot to redo the php.ini file, nothing would work, then I found that dread little variable, and everything works fine now.

I'll have to strongly disagree with your disagreement ;)

I've had PHP 3 to 4.01 and now 4.06 running under NT4 SP6a and now with W2K & IIS 5. From my experience, the %s %s is a requirement of IIS (not PHP). This according to Microsoft rules (apparently %s %s is CASE SENSITIVE): http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q245/2/25.ASP

The %s %s has to do with script mappings within IIS. The closest i've found to an explanation is: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q190/0/11.asp

apparently the "%s %s" are not necessary for ISAPI extensions, as seen at: http://www.microsoft.com/TechNet/prodtechnol/iis/deploy/confeat/cgiis4.asp

I believe that IIS passes the script name to php.exe with the first %s. I think IIS replaces the first %s with the script name. From the second article, I suppose that if the %s is changed to %S, the name passed to php.exe would be UPPERCASE. Can anyone verify this? Apparently, the second %s is used by IIS to pass any additional parameters to the script. Like running php.exe from the command line, that would be "php script1.php parameters". I think IIS requires the %s's to emulate that behavior. I know that PHP runs fine without these, but I haven't verified if the filename of the script passed to php.exe is upper or lower case when the %s %s is dropped. I'll have to do some testing and post the results here.

Another MS page worth looking at: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/iis/deploy/depovg/miglamp.asp

Who on his sane mind would drop Linux in favor of Win2K and IIS5 (with all the bugs it has, and those yet to be discovered)? http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/iis/deploy/depovg/lintowin.asp

Found MS explanation! (at least the only place I've found the reason WHY %s %s must be used)

http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q276/4/94.ASP

I know, this is a KB article for Python, but look closely at the line that says: "(The two "%s" after the executable are required for console-based script interpreters but would not be required for an Internet Server API [ISAPI]-based script interpreter)."

It's the only MS explanation I've seen as to why the %s %s must be used. If anyone finds anything more in-depth please expand on my comments.

I did something like that once. Mine sent only about a few hundred at a time and it was still quite a strain on the system because you have a TON of sendmail processes started and running at the same time. Just be aware of the possible system load. - dan

I have done this, and it's not a bad idea as long as you aren't sending spam.

It's rather easy to do this, just do a mysql_query() from the database where you select the subscribers field and then do a while which sends out emails via the mail()-function.

You may experience problem with max execution time if you're using a bad mailserver but it can be solved by simply extending the max execution time in php.ini or in just the specific script.

Yeah...probably too much. Sending 5000 individual e-mails would really bog the system down...no matter what it is. Personally, I wouldn't do it.

I have a system where we send periodic batches of 60,000 messages at a time, so it's definitely doable. It helps to put some throttling in there (i.e. a sleep() periodically) to be kind to your e-mail server.

You could write all the emails to a database with columns

toAddress,fromAddress,subject,body and any others you might want,

and then write a cron job to check the database every 10 mins for records

it might also be possible to read the process list into a variable and then only start new sendmail processes when there are less than certain number of sendmails runnning to balance the load.

Doesn't that make your script take A REALLY LONG TIME to run? If you do sleep(1) after each call to mail() and send out 1000 e-mails that would be a little over 16 and a half minutes of sleep.

At 5000 you are up to over 80 minutes.

Isn't this a problem?

Jim, Could you give us an example and explanation as to why no %s %s is unstable? How has this failed you ? because I've never had a problem with not having it in there that I know of. PHP has always executed for me properly, NT 4.0 and w2k. But if it is unstable I don't want to find out later. Thanks!

Yes, thanks.

I was trying to avoid "allowoverride options" because I did not want users to set +Includes or +ExecCGI in their .htaccess files.

But since it was the only way to get php_value working in .htaccess, I decided to use:

<Location /> Options -ExecGGI -Includes </Location>

to override their .htaccess overrides, in case they try.

All happy now. :-)

I'm trying to integrate a payment processing service for a client. The client would like to store the values passed from the payment processing service in a database on the clients server. I'm using a Meta Tag redirect from the payment processing service to my client to pass the variables.

Unfortunately I loose the variables when using Netscape 4.7 on the Mac if the variable has a space in it. Here's a url for an example;

http://www.smyclient.com/relay.php?trans_id=0&sub_acct=10&delay=nodelay&node lay=&revshare_id=&first=Tim&last=Jorgenson&address1=710 Clearview Road&address2=&city=San Francisco...

I loose everything after the first blank space in the url. In this example at "address1=710 Clearview Road&"

The payment processing service does not run PHP so I can't alter the variables on their side to include html formatted spaces, i.e. %20.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You're not sending CC numbers in the url as plain text are you? That's a REALLY BAD idea. You should store the information in your database before you go to processing the CC (name, address, etc.) and don't store CC numbers, the liability is much more than you're being paid. If you store it ahead of time all you need to pass in the url from the processing company is an id# to look up the info in your database.

Hi all, I don't know if this is a PHP related question, but here it is:

I'm developing a PHP / MySQL site, and, in one page the admin of the site has the power to add categories to the database in a <input type="text"> field. To check if the entry is already set, there is a <select> control with all the entries in the database. So, when the admin type the name of the categorie and press the submit button, another page load and tell if the insert operation was success or not. Then if the entry was add and press the back link ( <a href="" window.history.back();return false">[ back ]</a> ) the option in the <select> is not show after the user press the reload button. Is there a way that the page reaload automatically the data from the database without the user pressing the reload button? Thanks in advance.

but this is not working, the values are remaining empty.

Has anyone got any ideas on this.

I am under the (possibly flawed) assumption that you need to have the oracle client installed on the web server in order to use the oracle PHP module. Since I don't want to use the client on this machine at all, I would prefer to use the Perl DBI/DBD modules to connect to the database. Is there a way to access perl calls and return data from them from PHP? Thanks, Mike

The Perl DBI/DBD stuff needs exactly the same Oracle client library that PHP does.

The menu that's taken from the database is basically a list of links like this

$s="select * FROM molds m, prodlookup p WHERE p.cid=$cid and p.pid=m.id ORDER BY p.pid"; $menu=mysql_query($s); while ($stuff = mysql_fetch_array($menu)) { extract($stuff); echo "<a href=\"?cid=$cid&id=$id&page=1\">".$title."</a><br>"; }

So basically there could be an unlimited # of links depending on how many products there are. I'm guessing that before I echo the link, I need to evaluate whether $id is in the current URL. How would I go about doing that?

Thanks for your time.

Another way you could do it would be to check each item in the $GLOBALS["argv"] variable (or $argv). - Dan

I suppose you could check the $GLOBALS["REQUEST_URI"] variable with a
regular expression or something.

Hello...

Im having a problem with a php code that was running (and is running smoothly until today i guess).

The code that's giving me the error is this: $sql = "select * from archivo where fecha between $fechaprima and $fechasegu"; $r = mysql_query ($sql); $num_de_rows = mysql_num_rows ($r); this line <- if ( $num_de_rows > 0 ) { (i create some html tables here) }

The site is (www.passive-aggressive.org/pic_archive.php). The problem only happens when i select 08 as the month (i have a dropdown in which u can select which month u want and then i create the $fechaprima and $fechasegu from that date. Anyway... with all the other months im not getting any errors at all. However, I've done the query by hand at the mysql prompt and it is bringing me one row (the only one that exists for 08 month), so im guessing its invalid syntax, which is weird cause all the other months are running this "script" ok.

The error im getting is: Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/passive-/public_html/pic_archive.php on line 172

(line 172 is the one that i showed before)

Any ideas?

I am not sure but have some ideas where to look.

Can you echo/print the value $num_de_rows? It could be that it is 'false' or empty, and maybe php chokes on the comparison ? [ if (false>0) or (>0) ] then test add in the if a test whether the $num_de_rows is false/empty.

Would it be an idea to set $num_de_rows to 0 before you start? Nahh... wouldn't help.

Also try to print/echo the query and run the query on your database in phpmyadmin and see if the resulting table is what you expected.

<obscure> could it be that line 172 also contains a part of the html table printing? i think the numbering of the $r array starts with index 0 so there is no $r[1] if the number of rows is 1. Just $r[0]. </obscure>

I'm trying to integrate an Internet Telephony service for a client. I have a number of variables I need to dump into the clients database and then to pass to the Internet Telephony service via a Perl script they have provided for me that will reside on the client's server. Can I somehow pass them "behind the scenes" or should I use a redirect. There is info I need to keep away from the end user, mainly the phone number.

Can php and perl code reside in the same file? When the document is served up it parses the PHP and then the Perl?

Let's see if I can elaborate a little on my previous problem...

I work with 3 ISPs, 2 of which have Magic Quotes turned off (can someone tell me why an ISP would want to have magic quotes turned off???). If I feed a large dump from one database into another (using phpMyAdmin) then on the one with Magic Quotes turned ON there is no problem. But WITHOUT magic quotes turned on feeding a statement like this won't work:

INSERT INTO database ( fieldname ) VALUES ( 'bob's string' );

So... keeping in mind that it is fairly large dump, is there a way to utilize addslashes() to get it to go in? I've tried various addslash combinations but can't seem to get it right.

I use a javascript to do that for my forms:

if (window.RegExp) { var reg = new RegExp("^[_0-9a-z]*$","gi"); if (!reg.test(f.elements['username'].value)) { alert("Kullanici adi harf ve/veya rakamlardan olusmalidir. Lutfen Duzeltiniz!"); f.elements['username'].focus(); return(false); } }

I am sure you could write something similar with PHP.....

hi...

i have compiled php as a cgi binary on my linux box. i want to be able to tell the binary which ini file to use on the command line, which i thought would be the -c switch.

entering:

./php -?

reveals:

Usage: php [-q] [-h] [-s [-v] [-i] [-f <file>] | {<file> [args...]} -q Quiet-mode. Suppress HTTP Header output. -s Display colour syntax highlighted source. -f <file> Parse <file>. Implies `-q' -v Version number -C Do not chdir to the script's directory -c <path> Look for php.ini file in this directory -a Run interactively -d foo[=bar] Define INI entry foo with value 'bar' -e Generate extended information for debugger/profiler -z <file> Load Zend extension <file>. -l Syntax check only (lint) -m Show compiled in modules -i PHP information -h This help

but entering either of:

./php -c /path/to/ini/ mytest.php ./php -c /path/to/ini/php.ini mytest.php

tells me that it is using the following (and incorrect) ini file:

/usr/local/lib/php.ini

does anybody know how to accomplish this?

Consider the following table that I grabbed from another web site using:

<? $url = 'http://www.abc123xyz.com'; $lines_array = file($url); $lines_string = implode('', $lines_array); ?>

<table cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" border="0"> <tr> <td align=center>banana</td> <td align=left>.46</td> <td align=right>.55</td> </tr>

<tr> <td align=center>apple</td> <td align=left>.59</td> <td align=right>.33</td> </tr> </table>

The fruit lables don't change, but prices change daily. How would I parse JUST the two prices to the right of the word pear into a new html table?

How would I parse the word pear AND the two prices to the right into a new html table?

I think the answers will help me understand better.

I'm currently running my site on a win2k server, I'm using PHP for my tag board. Today a hacker managed to overwrite the text file I was using to store all the messages, which really isn't that big a surprise considering the permissions to the folder it is kept in are wide open thanks to my hosting company.

My question is, is there anything that I can do so that only PHP scripts on the server are able to access the file? Or am I going to have to contact my hosting company and see if they can figure out how to set the permissions properly?

Thanks in advance.

Keep the file outside the web directory... ie, if your web directory is /home/users/craig/www/ then keep the file in /home/users/craig

I have OpenLDAP and PHP 4.0.4p1 on a RedHat 7.1 (plain distribution, didn't recompile anything, and I use MOD_LDAP to authenticate users to an intranet site. I want PHP pages to show the real username so I have this function I call when I want to know the username.

the mod_ldap queries and ldap queries from a Perl CGI return very fast. On Perl I don't notice an performance issue (with less than a couple queries/second), but each query using PHP takes about two full seconds (or more). I did a workaround keeping the result on a session variable, but it's still slow every time I call this function. mod_ldap stores the user's dn on the REMOTE_USER environment variable.

Here's the function. I don't know how to make it faster.

Thanks, Emilio Panighetti

<?php // Retrieves user's real name from LDAP function ldapcnsearch() { $s_ldapserver = "localhost"; $s_ldapport = 389; $ds = ldap_connect( "ldap://".$s_ldapserver.":".$s_ldapport ); ldap_set_option( $ds, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3); $qar[] = "cn"; if ( $ds ) { $r = ldap_bind( $ds ); $sr = ldap_read( $ds, getenv( "REMOTE_USER" ), "cn=*", $qar, 0, 1, 1 ); $info = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr); $s_RealName = $info[0]["cn"][0]; ldap_close( $ds ); return( $s_RealName ); } } ?>

It's probably a good idea to learn a bit about regular expressions. In short, PHP gives us two types of regular expressions to play with, POSIX and PCRE. For more information : PCRE : http://php.net/manual/en/ref.pcre.php POSIX : http://php.net/manual/en/ref.regex.php The following is an example rich tutorial : http://www.phpbuilder.org/columns/dario19990616.php3 It uses ereg, which is POSIX : ereg() : http://php.net/manual/en/function.ereg.php Your question is "How can I make sure a string contains ONLY alpha-numeric characters?" That could look like : $string = 'examPle123';

if (eregi("^[a-z0-9]+$",$string)) { echo 'String is alpha-numeric'; } else { echo 'String is NOT alpha-numeric'; }

Which in english says : if the string : - begins with // ^ - contains one to an unlimited number of // + - ends with // $ the following characters : a-z // all lowercase letters A-Z // comes from i in eregi (case insensitive) 0-9 // all numbers then this is TRUE.

Let's say we wanted to make sure the length was between 3-11 characters, tinkering with the regex the following works : if (eregi("^[a-z0-9]{3,11}$",$string)) { echo 'Is alpha-numeric and 3-11 characters in length'; } else { echo 'Is NOT alpha-numeric and/or 3-11 characters in length'; }

Allowing spaces in $string is easy as : [a-z0-9 ] Also, some good variable and string functions exist : variables : http://php.net/manual/en/ref.var.php strings : http://php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php
