Definetely yes.
The PHP session is (with the default setup) nuthing more than a hash that's
used to construct a file name. So the session ID
"0ee410a57762be937d6d277b4ff642c8" will render the filename
"/tmp/sess_0ee410a57762be937d6d277b4ff642c8" which will subsequently used
by PHP as the session storage.

You cannot really control if the user is logging out or not - I saw a
"solution" once where they had a JavaScript for "onUnload" where they
warned the user that the next time he should log out - I believe the actual
action was to use the onUnload handler to redirect the browser to the
logout screen. However this wouldn't work if the user has JavaScript
switched off.
What I usually do (I also have session cookies switched off) is to send the
user a session cookie when he logs in. This way I can use cookieless
sessions, but when it comes to sensitive areas I can be sure that
bookmarking or giving away the SID wouldn't automatically transfer the
login session...

I always recomment NOT using session.auto_start. It effectively disables
making objects session-persistent as any class file needed for the objects
must be loaded BEFORE objects gets reconstructed.
When the browser requests an URL with a SID you have no control if this
stems from a link or from a bookmark (maybe you could go and analyze
$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], but not all browsers tranmit it. What you can do
is to have a timestamp of the last access recorded in your session so you
can always check against your own timeout requirements.
Personally I believe it's a good thing not to enable automatic session
cookies. Relying on a session cookie effectively disables having two
browser windows open with the same application but running in different
contexts, since both would transmit the same session cookie.

True ... but the browser does.
I think I would not have this problem using cookies since the cookie would expire after the browser is closed. The reason I am seeing this problem is that I am passing the SID in the URL and hence PHP does not know that the browser was closed.
> If you access that URL tomorrow, I doubt the session will STILL be valid...
True. I guess I should set the gc to clean up sessions more often than it does now. Maybe 30 minutes ...

I know what they mean. I got very confused until you pointed a very obvious thing out. It's passing the SID in the URL that is causing the problem and as you pointed out there is no work-around.
I'll just have to live with the fact that by passing the SID in the URL the session will be alive until the session gc cleans up.
Thanks,

This is controlled by the session.gc_probability value in your INI file which is set to 1 by default. This means that every 100th access to any PHP script on your server will initiate the session garbage routine which might kill your outdated session file. Increasing this value will make this process more often, setting it to 100 will have PHP run the garbage collector every time a PHP script gets executed (you shouldn't do this - think in concurrency terms...)

I don't get what you mean here. Can you explain a bit more? Sounds like what I need but I don't understand. You say you have cookies switched off but send the user a cookie ... a contradiction.

I didn't know that but it doesn't matter as I don't do OO in PHP. Being also a Java programmer I can't wrap my brain around how PHP does pseudo-OO.

Again, why would congruency be affected by the gc? If the session hasn't timed-out then the gc won't clean it up. If it has then it's ok to clean it up. I obviously am missing something has what you say seems to make sense but I can see it just yet :)

If you set it 100, then _every_ request in which sessions are used, PHP has to go through all the session files (by default stored in /tmp) and check whether they have expired. If you have a busy server you could have thousands of session files. Checking thousands of files at each request is very time consuming.

*That* I understand and agree with. What I was more interested in was the "concurrency" aspect. Why setting gc to 100 might cause problems with concurrency.

The session.gc_probability value is an overall value that you cannot escape as to my knowledge. If you want a finer granularity you need to run this from within your application. For example, when a iser accesses your script, record the current timestamp in session storage. On the next access, compare the current timestamp with the recorded one and act accordingly.

If it hasn't timed out it won't be touched, that's clear - but _if_ it has timed out it's not guaranteed that the gc has already removed the session file. Note that there is no expiry check when the session storage is accessed by session_start(); only the gc process itself checks if it should remove the session file.
In another message, Jean-Christian Imbeault said: --------------------[snip]-------------------- >*That* I understand and agree with. What I was more interested in was >the "concurrency" aspect. Why setting gc to 100 might cause problems >with concurrency.
Setting this to 100 means that _any_ script access will start the gc. Which means that even on a moderately busy server a multitude of gc's will check the session files, possibly interfering with each other as one gc removes a file that's being checked by another gc. Might be painless (I haven't looked at the implementation); but I'd avoid this as far as I could :)

My php.ini has session.use_cookies set to 0, so no (automatic) session cookies get transmitted. Thie however doesn't stop me from programmatically sending a cookie to the client... So that's what I do, basically: I might be using a session for a lot of stuff that's not related to user login; but when a user logs in this happens:
a) Create a unique cookie name and remember it: $cookie_name = md5(date('YmdHis')); $_SESSION['cookie_name'] = $cookie_name; b) Create a random value for the cookie: $cookie_token = rand(); $_SESSION['cookie_token'] = $cookie_token; c) Transmit this cookie to the client (lifetime=session): setcookie($cookie_name, $cookie_token);
From now on, the login-check tests for the random session cookie to match the token: if ($_COOKIE[$_SESSION['cookie_name']] == $_SESSION['cookie_token']) { // valid cookie found, so generate a new value $_SESSION['cookie_token'] = rand(); setcookie($_SESSION['cookie_name'], $_SESSION['cookie_token']); } else { // no cookie set, or token doesn't match - take the appropriate action }
This helps me to allow multiple sessions at the same client computer, since every session has its own unique cookie. Giving away a link containing a SID wouldn't harm security since you cannot pass or bookmark session cookies.

It's not pseudo-OO - it's some kind of "back-to-the-roots" OO :) You _do_ have (single) inheritance, you _do_ have class abstraction, you _do_ have polymorphism (although you need to go a lot by hand), but you _don't_ have protected and private storage.
You can always put an object into session storage, like this:
class A { function A() {} } session_start(); if (!is_object($a)) $a = new A(); $_SESSION['a'] =& $a;
This will give you the same object of class A anytime you access the page with the same session. Note however that the session handler needs the class definition to be able to reconstruct the saved object - only the class name, and the instance data, gets stored in session data.

Well if you have a few requests per second, then each of those requests will want to check through your thousands of session files meaning you will have tens of thousands of disk accesses?

I 'm not where I can test this right now, but if a session is older than session.gc_maxlifetime, isn't it invalid anyway? I.E. if I bookmark a page on your site and then come back 3 hours later passing an old SID, shouldn't that session have expired on the server by that time, in which case the session vars would be empty and you could kick me back to your login page?
I personally use a custom session handler (MySql based, which I got from www.phpbuilder.com) and I believe this is how my site behaves, but I'm not for certain. I'll try to test it out and see...

I don't think the session handler checks session expiry - only gc does. I haven't checked the PHP sources yet, but I found out that on my development server (where we definetely don't have a lot of traffic ;->) session files can persist over night, and the session is still available in the morning... only when the gc_probability is hit (i.e. at the 100th access), the file gets removed. At least with my PHP (4.2.2, RH 7.2).

Jean,
This is a common challenge with a pretty easy solution.
First, in case you are curious why the session can be reestablished, the bookmarked page likely has the session identifier in the query string. Thus, it is unnecessary for the browser to send a cookie, because it is sending the session identifier as a GET variable. This is what PHP is using to identify the client.
It is a bad idea to depend on the timeout of a cookie or the session cleanup process to maintain a session timeout mechanism. Instead, you should keep a timestamp stored as a session variable that you use to make any time-based decisions for that session. For example:
$_SESSION["last_access"] = gmmktime();
To use this value to enforce a timeout, you would make a check similar to the following to make sure it hasn't been too long since the last access:
$seconds_idle = gmmktime() - $_SESSION["last_access"];
If the number of seconds they have been idle is too long for you, force them to reenter their password or even completely reauthenticate to continue. If the idle time is acceptable to you, reset the session variable to the current time.

Of course it is possible for any application running locally to fetch any data about your hardware - e.g. M$ does it with their semi-automatic bug reporting feature (in Win XP). However you'd need hardware and OS specific applications to accomplish this.

I think you should try fclose() the file before you die!

OK, the only reason why the 2nd IF block is not executed is if $initialize is not empty (ie isset($initialize) is TRUE hence $start_over = 1 is never executed). So try:
if(!isset($initialize)) { $start_over = 1; } else { var_dump($initialize); // to see what the **** it contains }

The variable $initialize contains "int(1)", so it does set itself within the last if statement. I'm just not sure why it's not unsetting all the sessions when the page loads.

If the second block is being executed...
Did you check out php.net and the comments about session_unset()?
If it is not, are you closing the browser between tests? The session information stays open even after leaving the site and coming back.

While it is more efficient space-wise (4 bytes vs. 12 bytes), the price of the additional disk storage needed for storing them is trivial (unless you have a billions). Make sure you consider the addtional costs of maintenance, too, when you store data in a "non-human" format.

This has been discussed many times too :)
Last plan was to have it auto-posted to the subscriber when they sign up, plus possibly a monthly or weekly reminder... the weekly reminder is really easy (it just requires someone to write the FAQ and set up a cron or something), but the one when ppl sign-up really needs the PHP-team in on it... really, it's their list, so it should be in their hands.

Hi,
1) like Bastian already pointed out, you need to name your checkboxes "val[]" in order to have PHP recognize them being an array.
2) You cannot use "isset($val[0])" and "isset($val[1])". If any checkbox is clicked, $val[0] will always be set. If only one is clicked (regardless which one) index 0 will be set and index 1 unset.
Instead, you should if(is_array($val)){ if (in_array('a', $val) && in_array('s', $val)) $eval='as'; elseif (in_array('a', $val)) $eval='a'; elseif (in_array('s', $val)) $eval='s';
However this would give you the very same result, but much more elegant: $eval = join('', $val); And it will automatically handle all further additions when $val[] might have more possible values except 'a' and 's'.

Yeah, of course. To convert "20/11/2002" into a float, just do
echo (float)"20/11/2002";
and you get 20!!
Or you can use strtotime() to convert it to a Unix timestamp (integer, number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970).

Here, I want to be able to match the alpha characters as well as the spaces in between each word. So far I have:
preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z]+$/", $text);
But that only matches a single word without spaces. I would like to try to stay away from ereg and use preg_match instead because I heard preg_match is faster. ereg() has a way to match spaces by specifying [[:space:]], but I didn't get that solution to work either. How do I match $text to return true?

Hi,
We have added some new features to a SiteShield protected website which makes it neccessary to use sessions. Although creating the session and the appropriate variables is a server side process there seem to be problems with IE (tested with version 6 on Win2000 Pro and WinXP Pro).
If I access the site with IE I will see the following error message at the bottom of the page:
Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/home/globstag/tmp) in Unknown on line 0
However if I access the site with any other browser writing the session data works.
But this isn't all yet. I can't replicate the problem on any other machine I have access to. On all other machines I have access to the site works fine.
First I thought that it might have been a problem with the PHP version because the server runs on PHP 4.0.6 and my notebook runs on PHP 4.2.1. Upgrading the server to 4.2.1 unfortunately didn't solve the problem.
I have then deployed the site to my private dedicated server which runs PHP 4.0.6 on SuSE 7.2. Even on that machine I can't replicate the error.
The main difference between the other servers and the server in NewYork is that only the server in NewYork is protected with SiteShield. Which leads me to the conclusion that there might be a problem related to the combination of SiteShield, IE and PHP.
If you have any ideas feel free to share your thoughts with me.

Hi,
I don't see how this behaviour could be related to a browser version - all browsers behave (should behave?) identically when requesting a page... they simply issue a MIME request, like GET /?PHPSESSIONID=aasdasdasdasdasdasd HTTP/1.0 Host: www.yourhost.com
The message you see looks disturbing to me - is the session.save_path value actually set to /home/globstag/tmp? Does Apache (or else) have all necessary rights to this directory?
_MAYBE_ you're using some mod_rewrite rules on the target server, depending on the user agent, so IE's would end up in a defunct installation?
I'd check for this inn the first place.

Well, guess what I did before writing this eMail ;-)
At the end of my original eMail I said: On Friday 22 November 2002 14:24, Andreas Otto wrote: > The main difference between the other servers and the server in NewYork is > that only the server in NewYork is protected with SiteShield.

So what we have is a set of web servers to which access is controlled by a (proxy) server. The software that is used to manage access rights is called SiteShield and is developed by a company called Tempest.
Every request to the server I experience this strange problem at has to pass the SiteShield server.
The question is now: Has anyone heard about or had problems with the combination of PHP SiteShield and InternetExplorer?

I have been trying that, but it looks like I have to run the query through our office in NewYork where the servers are hosted. My colleagues in NewYork will have the right support details.

Hello!
I am looking to find or code a script that does the following. If anyone could help I'd be extremely greatful.
Users can upload their files, but the files they upload can only be downloaded X amount of times. After they've been downloaded so many times in an ideal world they'd be automatically removed, though just to be made so people couldn't download them anymore would be great.
Please help! Thanks!

Ok, make a form for upload with maybe fields as well where the user can write how many time that file is supposed to be downloaded. After submit you store that information in a database (MySQL) and when downloading files you do it through another PHP-file where you can check how many times it has been downloaded, if it reach the amount, delete it, otherwise update the database with one more download for this file!
How to upload files can be read in the PHP-Manual. For database use: www.mysql.com

Could someone help me with this: What combination of functions do I have to use to automatically redirect to an .html page (with <form>'s inside), while carrying a variable that would be automatically put into one of the <input> boxes, just like a predefined "value" would? Thanks a lot! Krzysztof

Can't do it unless your page "form" page is .php so you can execute some PHP commands in it, or you're using PHP to write the entire .html page with the default values.
If you use .php pages for both, then you can just pass the values in the URL
www.page.com/page.php?name=john
and use
<input type="text" name="name" value="<?=$_GET['name']?>">

if one of $titulotxt or $cdstxt is not set, your query will look something like this:
SELECT * FROM divx WHERE && cds like '$cdstxt' ORDER BY titulo
As you see, there is unnecessery &&. I build my search queries using this form:
$query_cond=''; foreach($_GET as $col => $val) { switch($col) { case 'cds': // you can add more cases here for conditions that need to be exact $query_cond .= " $col LIKE '$val' AND "; break; case 'titulo': // you can add more cases here for conditions that need not to be exact $query_cond .= " $col LIKE '%$val%' AND "; break; } } // get rid of final AND $query_cond = substr($query_cond, 0, strlen($query_cond) - 4); // and as you don't have any other conditions, $query_cond cannot be empty - we would have excessive WHERE // so if it is empty, make it 1 if($query_cond=='') $query_cond='1';
$sql="SELECT * FROM divx WHERE $query_cond ORDER BY titulo";

An application I am developing contains something like the following:
$this->socket = fsockopen($server, $port, $errnum, $errstr, "60"); ... while (!feof($this->socket)) {
$char = fgets($this->socket,1);
if (($char == "\n") || ($char == "\r")) return $buffer; } $buffer .= $char; } return $buffer;
This works fine upto php-4.2.x. However, I've recently built and installed php-4.3.0pre2 and now the above code appears to hang.
Substituting fread in place of fgets solves the problem. I know that fgets is supposed to be 'binary safe' as of php-4.3 but I'm not sure if this could be causing the above problem.
Does anyone know of any changes to fgets in php-4.3.0 which might be causing this? Are there any reasons why I should not use fread instead of fgets here?
Also, I am looking at using something like:
$status = socket_get_status($this->socket); if ($status["unread_bytes"] <= 0) return false;
However, $status["unread_bytes"] always returns 0 until the first call to fgets($this->socket). Is this right? I'd like to check the status of the socket before I try to read from it.
Thanks,

I believe there have been a few starts and stops with a module in the past but I haven't found anything with the complete feature set. I intend to do that. I am going to be looking for help in the future but I'd like to get the current stuff closer to my goal. There a number of things on the list that I'd like to get done before asking others to help.
I only need another few days before I push this to beta and start testing it on some live sites.
Actually, one way to help now is to test it...perhaps compile it on an OS other then Linux and put it through some testing.
I'm putting up a site for it now and will push another version by end of today.

Try this:
//...snip
$headers="From: $name <$email>\r\n"; mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers);
//...end
The above code seems to work for me.

Hi all,
Before anything else, thanks for the answers to the last request of mine. Now, I'm trying to make a mailing script which is a very common task to do, but from this one, my client needs to send one e-mail to all the recipients stored in a DB every once in a while. I know that is best to send just one e-mail and add all the recipients to the hidden CC (CCO) instead of adding all of them to the "TO" header.
Now, I usually use a very comfortable way to configure e-mails by setting all the $vaiables first and then adding a mail() function at the bottom, but I never used a CCO target variable and never less a loop to fetch all the addresses... any thoughts?
By the way, I'm very used to work with FOR loops, so I'll try to keep using it. Thanks in advance,

Hi!
I'm using phpUpLoad but when I try to upload a file I get this error -
Warning: Unable to create '/home/silversa/AC/files/Amber.pet': No such file or directory in /home/silversa/public_html/AC/do_upload.php on line 9 Couldn't copy file.
I made a directory called "files" in the folder incase that was the problem but it hasn't helped. I also made the path /usr/home/silversa/public_html/AC/ incase that was the problem but that didn't help either. Can you shed any light?
Thanks ^_^

Does the Web Server/PHP have permission to write in that directory?

Need to ensure that your web sever is able to write to the location.
You may need to chmod the dir to 775 or even 777
hope that helps.

Hint: Never change your directory or file to mod 777 that just invites hackers, plus it is a bad habit.
The best thing is to make sure that your directory is owned by your apache server and that it is writeable for that user...
Verify the user in your httpd.conf file and change the directory ownership to that user. Then give that user and only that user write access to it...

... or use a wrapper SUID to the user or group who owns the dir and have it wrap a back-end script that actually does the work. I've used this effectively, and so long as the back-end script is properly written I believe it's a very secure method.

If you aren't out for the absolute best like IB, go with XMB. http://www.xmbforum.com/. I haven't used it much but I hear it's easy to skin, features are great, and all that. The admin panel is kind of hard to use but you get used to it rather quickly...

My header looks just like this:
HTTP/1.0 200 OK Date: Sat, 16 Nov 2002 16:45:29 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.20 (Win32) PHP/4.0.6 Cache-Control: public, max-age=3600 Expires: Sat, 16 Nov 2002 17:45:29 GMT X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.6 Content-Type: text/html
And yes, we use sessions.
So, setting session_cache_limiter() to "public" should solve my problem? The pragma header is what is missing?
Instead of changing the code, could i use Apache´s mod_header to do the job?
Thank you for the help!

Luanna,
This response allows caching, but the cached response is only considered fresh for one hour (which might be appropriate for you), as is determined by both the Expires header and the max-age attribute of the Cache-Control header.
The Pragma header is defined under HTTP/1.0 and is only used when backwards compatibility with HTTP/1.0 Web agents is required (meaning, Web agents that do not support HTTP/1.1). The absence of Pragma will not restrict caching in any way, however, even with an HTTP/1.0 cache.
You can use PHP's header() function to manipulate headers.
One thing I am not clear on is whether this type of caching is what you were originally inquiring about. The HTTP headers specify what restrictions are placed on the ability for a caching system to cache this HTTP response. It has nothing to do with caching the PHP script in any way on the server. If that latter sounds more like what you are interested in, there are several products that can help with this also. One is Zend Cache.

Chris,
your explanation was just what i needed to really understand my problem :-)
For the moment, i want to cache the HTTP Response. So, if i´m correct, the header that i sent to the list should do the job.
I have:
Apache Web Server 1.3.x A Reverse Proxy The client(IE 5.00)
I thought that, if the responses were cached, the access.log file would have 304 codes on the responses for php scripts. Is that correct? Well, if it is, that´s not happening. If its not, i´m pretty lost :-)
Thank you for the explanation!

Hi All,
I've been using PHP and FastTemplates for a couple of years on multiple platforms (Mac OSX, Win98, WinNT, Solaris). I've just installed RedHat 7.3 and FastTemplates doesn't work anymore.
I get the message: Warning: Invalid content of \{\} in /var/www/cgi-bin/php/FastTemplate/class.FastTemplate.php4 on line 201
Here are the lines from FastTemplate: line 199> // php4 doesn't like '{$' combinations. line 200> $key = "{"."$key"."}"; line 201> $template = ereg_replace("$key","$val","$template");
I've applied the patch for FastTemplates and php4. The version of PHP that comes with RedHat 7.3 is 4.1.2 which is the same as my Mac OSX which works fine.
One of the only differences I see is that with phpinfo the RedHat systems are using the system regex library and the others are using the bundled library. This is the default installation with RH7.3.
Any Clues?
Thanks, Gary Smith

Hi,
i wrote a helpdesk script, which can send the user emails, if requested.
The helpdesk sends emails as "nobodymydomain.com", but some servers
don't accept "nobody" as the sender!
do you know how i can change that?
i don't mean the "From:" header, but the real sender header of the email...
e.g.:
"Received: from nobody by hostname.mydomain.com with local (Exim ......"
Would i have to change the apache user to change this? I mean, there are so many scripts out there and they all have a proper "Received: from..." header, so i guess i simply overlooked s.th.
Thanks for your help,
Duncan

This header is added by mail server, so you must change the apache user.

Hi!
here is my test code
<?php
ob_start(); for ($n=1;$n<10;$n++) {
echo "test<br>";
ob_end_flush();
sleep(2); }
?>
I can make this work on php and apache. I always get output in one shot not line by line. If i try this code with php and iis it works.
What am i doing wrong. Do i have to tell apache to send line by line to browser not everything together.

This turns off output buffering after flushing, the first time it gets called in the first iteration of your for() loop.

Try using ob_flush() instead. http://www.php.net/ob_flush "This function does not destroy the output buffer like ob_end_flush() does."
What's odd is that it works like you want it to in IIS ....

Hi!
I changed it to ob_flush() and the problem still exist.
Check the link and you'll se. http://www.kud-igen.si/link.php
I have 3 apache servers and no one works as i want to. But iis makes no problems.

You need to use flush() to try and send a chunked response that will display on the user's browser line at a time like that. Output buffering is fairly closely related I suppose, but it is a separate thing.
As far as I know, you cannot flush() with output buffering started unless you end or flush that output buffering first. However, output buffering is not required for what you are wanting to do, so only use it if you also need that.
I wrote a quick little example of displaying a bulleted list one item at a time that might be helpful to you:
