" Warning: OpenDir: Invalid argument (errno 22) in c:/page.php on line 21"
"Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in c:/page.php

Here you have no trailing /

But here you do...
It should not make a difference as far as I know, but it may be worth a
try. Have you tried other subfolders?

Post your code and point out the lines that give errors.

At least not with PHP 4.2:

<?php class A { function A() { echo "default constructor A()\n"; } function A($string) { echo "overloaded constructor A($string)\n"; } }

$a1 = new A(); $a2 = new A('Test');

Results in: overloaded constructor A() overloaded constructor A(Test) thus bypassing the default constructor and calling the overloaded constructor both times.

What you might do to distinguish which "overload" has been called:

function A($string=null) { if (!isset($string)) echo "Default constructor A()\n"; else echo "Overloaded constructor A($string)\n"; }

Hope this helps,

well I found a way. It's a bit of a hack but FYI heres how it works:

function Form() { // a slight hack which allows us to overload // constructors by the number of args

$name = "Form".func_num_args(); $arg_list = func_get_args(); $num_args = func_num_args(); switch($num_args) { case 0: $this->$name(); break; case 6: $this->$name( $arg_list[0], $arg_list[1], $arg_list[2], $arg_list[3], $arg_list[4], $arg_list[5]); break; default: echo "Wrong number of args for constructor!"; } }

// pseudo-constructor for 0 args function Form0() { $this->formName = "myForm"; $this->formAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; $this->formMethod = "POST"; $this->formVersion = "xhtml"; $this->formLanguage = "en_gb"; $this->formStyle = "/styles/form.css"; $this->formElementCount = 0; }

// pseudo-constructor for 6 args function Form6($formName, $formAction, $formMethod, $formVersion, $formLanguage, $formStyle) { $this->formName = $formName; $this->formAction = $formAction; $this->formMethod = $formMethod; $this->formVersion = $formVersion; $this->formLanguage = $formLanguage; $this->formStyle = $formStyle; $this->formElementCount = 0; // don't allow user to set this }

Excuse me breaking in...somewhat similar problem:

Have set up a client recently, preaching security persuaded them into updating so that could run Register_Globals=Off. Now they want to install a 'wiki' which requires (to my horror) Register_Globals=On.

Short of two Apache/PHP servers, what is a logical way to structure things so that the 'wiki' runs 'insecure' but other/'my' PHP work runs more securely?

Please advise, =dn

a .htaccess file in the directory you want RG OFF (ie /wiki/) should do the trick:

<IfModule mod_php4.c> php_flag register_globals on </IfModule>

This seems to work for me...

Set it on a per directory basis. If using Apache something like:

<Directory "/home/www.example.com/wiki_directory"> php_value register_globals 1 </Directory>

Just set register_globals on in the wiki directory.

Like this in your httpd.conf:

<Directory /path/to/wiki> php_admin_flag register_globals on </Directory>

No, can't do it. Only one query per mysql_query() call. Not sure with other database interfaces, but it should be the same.

...perhaps, a better way to put it is "run multiple SQL statements" _one after another_ :)

It's a good approach though. ;)

Yes, you cannot do it in MySQL. But you can do it with others.

(I think it was discussed before--about "sql injection" or something...)

Hi I have the following code that breaks:

// PLACE NICK INTO NICKNAMES.TXT AND START OFF MESSAGES.TXT $fileID = fopen($path . "/nicknames.txt", "a") or die("Could not open " . $path . "/nicknames.txt"); chmod($path . "/nicknames.txt", 0755); fputs($fileID, $nickname . "\n"); fflush($fileID); fclose($fileID); $fileID = fopen($path . "/messages.txt", "a") or die("Could not open " . $path . "/messages.txt"); fputs($fileID, "*** WELCOME \"" . $nickname . "\" TO THE ROOM ***"); fflush($fileID); fclose($fileID);

I did just that. Permissions are set the /chat folder as it is in all other folders. This is the first time I've ever done fopen with "w" and I can't get it to write, always getting "unable to access" errors. I want to be able to create the file if it does not exist. It works for me to do "r" in all other folders with the same permissions as /chat.

If you want to create a file, the directory must be writeable to the server proces, so if the directory is owned by you do chmod o+w chat

Hello!

So, let me see if i understood:

1) Static content like Google´s logo(which i see every ten minutes :-) ) are cached with no problems. Actually, i´ve got that working. Does that always depend on the If-Modified-Since header?

2) Given that i send the proper header, could i receive as a response the 304 Not Modified for a dynamic content (GET something.php), just like the logo? If so, what would the proper header be?

3) Lets say that i got the php-response browser-cache working. Is it possible to store the cached response on my reverse proxy instead of the browser itself? Actually, thats what i would like to happen.

Thank you for the help and best regards!

Well, my explanation was not complete, because I wanted to make sure I was talking about the right thing. :-)

One important thing I failed to mention is that caching applies to responses to GET and HEAD requests. If the response you showed us was a reply to a POST, it is not going to be cached.

As far as the 304 responses are concerned, this depends in part on the Web browser. For example, if the browser sends a conditional GET request with an If-Modified-Since header (it has a date as a value), the Web server will make a decision. If the resource being requested has in fact been modified since the specified date, the entire resource is returned in a 200 OK response. If it has remained unchanged, a 304 Not Modified response is sent with no content, saving bandwidth.

If you would like a good example to compare responses with, request an image from your Web server and notice the HTTP headers used. If you take a page such as Google as an example, your browser requests http://www.google/com first, receives the HTML from that, then notices the embedded image and requests http://www.google.com/images/logo.gif in a separate request. If you are like me and visit Google all the time, your browser has this image saved and rarely (usually only on holidays) gets anything but a 304 response from Google.

So, for pages you make available via GET requests that you want to be cachable in the same way as Google's logo, you can start by mimicking what they do. Here is an example of the HTTP transactions required to see http://www.google.com/ (HTML and some headers edited for readability):

------------------------------ GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: www.google.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (...) Accept: text/xml, ... Accept-Language: en-us, en;q=0.50 Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1, utf-8;q=0.66, *;q=0.66 Keep-Alive: 300 Cache-Control: max-age=0 ------------------------------ HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Length: 9390 Server: GWS/2.0 Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2002 20:31:18 GMT Content-Type: text/html Cache-control: private

<html>... ------------------------------ GET /images/logo.gif HTTP/1.1 Host: www.google.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (...) Accept-Language: en-us, en;q=0.50 Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1, utf-8;q=0.66, *;q=0.66 Keep-Alive: 300 Accept: video/x-mng, ... Referer: http://www.google.com/ If-Modified-Since: Mon, 21 Oct 2002 02:32:25 GMT Cache-Control: max-age=0 ------------------------------ HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified Content-Length: 0 Server: GWS/2.0 Content-Type: text/html Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2002 20:31:19 GMT ------------------------------

Hopefully that provides a little more information to get you going.

This is more like a diversion around the problem... It will either be relevant to your problem, or not :)

In particular, I use this to prevent people from refreshing their page (and hence adding something to the DB twice for example).

Lets say you have form.php, which submits to process.php... the aim is to have process.php as a server-only script (ie, nothing is sent to the browser), with a header() redirect to a thankyou.php page once I've added stuff to the DB, or whatever....

The point is, they'll never see a page expired message in this case, because the script receiving the POST information never gets to the browser.

This may or may not help, depending on your problem :)

I would notice the difference, but computers don't understand text, it is just data for them, and they represent it the same way (there is no special file type for text and binary in filesystem either).

If you have using a new php.ini file, perhaps you can compare it with an old one and see if there's anything different--might give you a hint.

Or, you might want to check the manual about error reporting and see what you can do about it:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-reporting.php

But then again, perhaps the problem is somewhere else... (i.e. file is not there, permissions, etc.)

HTH,

Yeah, and no. It's FreeBSD-Ports, my php.ini is unchanged. FreeBSD installs the new / updated ini files as ini-dist, so hence, nothing on my settings has changed. I did also check to verify this, and it is indeed the correct ini file, with the correct settings...

Yes the file does not exist. But isn't that why file_exists() is there?

Right, I might be typing faster than I am thinking... :)

Still, just make sure that PHP is using the php.ini file that you think it's using. The file that _you_ check didn't change but _php_ might be looking somewhere else... Of course, I could be wrong--haven't used FreeBSD/Ports--only linux.

Perhaps, somebody else knows the answer...

As ridiculous as this sounds...

Turning of safe mode made the warning go away. Now, I guess the question is, 1) is this a bug in the file_exists() function, or 2) does the default warning levels increase when operating under safe mode?

Either way, this never happened to me before, and is only now happening since upgrading from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2...

Rather peculiar I think...

I think one way you can try is to use JavaScript's onClick() with submit.form. There was a discussion on a similar subject ("passing js values to php") not long time ago. Maybe you can check the archives...

If you use a range of fonts with a generic family you should be ok, for example:

verdana, helvetica, arial, sans-serif

Also, try to use relative sizes, if you use fixed sized like 10pt. you will have size discrepancies on different platforms. If you use a relative scheme like 12px it will render more consistently....

BTW: I bet you'd find the same issues if you looked at your pages on a MAC as well...

Hi The problem I am having is as follows: I setup PHP with IIS and it seems to work fine. I am creating a Intranet site and would like to obtain the user logged on to the networks username. I have setup basic auth but when I visit the site it asks me for my username and password before I can get in. Integrated Windows Auth is turned off. When I turn it on and try to login it says login failed. I know that ASP can have a script added to the page to turn pass through auth but I need one for PHP. I am using $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["LOGON_USER"] to get the username and it works when I login. I just need to get rid of the login box.

Thanks for your help in advance.

shows a good view that you have a table with two columns.

If you'd like to sort these, then I think you might be able to do something like this: 1. Instead of printf()'ing your <td>'s or <tr>'s inside the class/function, why don't you try "putting" it inside an array? (Maybe with array_push() or something.) Then, 2. If you already have an array, perhaps you can use one of the functions here for sorting:

Aye, this is essentially what I need help with, is making the array.

What I'm looking for is a way to put the data into an array and then sort it based on the user's want and then print it out in a table format.

I've already got the xml info working as intended:

http://www.rpgtimes.com/daoc/

But what I've tried with getting the data placed into an array so far hasn't worked. Not many parsed XML examples out there or anything the 10 odd books I have help me with this. Books, I've found, in general, can't help me with most of my array needs due to their very basic examples and descriptions.

I am about to try doing an array as such:

Instead of:

Something to this affect:

Course, I'm unsure how this will work (but I'll try it out) since $this->ServerName may not carry to the $this->insideitem check. I would then plan to use function endElement to determine the user's want and then print the HTML out based on that, such as wanting the current data sorted by population (default) or by server name, type, or status.

Sorry, I'm new to dynamic web page creation and especially to XML, but I've got a love for programming and a head that just wants to learn more of it, so I create tons of web sites based around my hobbies so that I can practice and learn more. I'm glad I found this listserv and hope you guys don't mind my questions.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

This seems to me to be more easily handled by XSLT. (Not the only option but a good one). XSLT lets you select only the nodes you want and also sort them as well.

Heyas,

Once upon a time I used to be able to POST form data to external sites with ASP and an MSXML (or something) server object on IIS and I'm wondering if there's a similar sort of technique using PHP. Would prefer it if I didn't have to use anything that isn't part of your typical PHP/Apache install (if there is such a thing) but will take what I can get.

The easiest description of what I'm attempting is: user hits PHP page, page submits predefined search terms to Google and the results are displayed. The user wouldn't have interacted with the search at all (ie: no button clicks) as it's all performed by the PHP script.

Thoughts? Kris

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's against Google's policy. No help here...

You can post with PHP using cURL or doing it yourself manually. Search the archives for this, as the previous answers to this are more complete than what I have time to explain now. Here is a quick example of the manual approach:

http://shiflett.org/tutorials/php_post.txt

> The easiest description of what I'm attempting is: user hits PHP > page, page submits predefined search terms to Google and the > results are displayed.

Since Google's search uses GET, your question about POST doesn't matter anyway. The following URL will display the search results of a Google search on PHP:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=PHP&btnG=Google+Search

If you are wanting to display the search results on your own page, you should use Google's API. I believe parsing their HTML results violates the terms of use, so you might want to read that if you do not want to use the API.

The API can be found here:

http://www.google.com/apis/

A low-level demonstration of how the API works is given here (I plan to improve this when I have time):

http://shiflett.org/tutorials/google.php

Hope that helps.

If you want to deal with nested tags then it's probably best to replace each opening and closing tag individually. Otherwise you might end up with some fiendishly complicated regex.

Did I say I preferred the PCRE functions to the EREG ones?

Well using preg_replace() you can put all your search strings in one array and all the corresponding replacement strings in another and it'll replace all those tags for you in a single operation:

$text = '[i]This[/i] is a [i]test[/i].'; $search_for_tags = array("/\[i\]/", "/\[\/i\]/"); $replace_with_tags = array("", ""); $text = preg_replace($search_for_tags, $replace_with_tags, $text); print $text;

/* Ignorance must certainly be bliss or there wouldn't be so many people so resolutely pursuing it. */

attached mail follows:

This will replace all versions (open and close) of bold, italicize and underline tags with brackets using preg_replace.

$text = preg_replace("/\[(\/)?([biu])\]/","<\\1\\2>",$text) ; <definition> - find [ = "\[" - match IF slash exists = "(\/)?" - match one of the following = "([biu])" - find ] = "\]"

- matches get put into 'memory' (\\1 \\2) even if not found (ie. slash didn't exist). - replace with "< 'first match' 'second match' >"

- NOTE : in PCRE regexs, brackets and forward-slashes are special characters and must be escaped (preceded with a back-slash) when looking for them as regular characters. </definition>

Even if you do not know PCRE yet, don't hamstring yourself looking for a solution that is too complicated and time-consuming. EREG does not work very well on this type of problem.

Buck up, learn PCRE and use this type of solution (if you find something that works for you, use it...by no means does the code above cover every tag you 'may' want to use).

Builder.com has a pretty good regular expression checker for PERL-style regexs that make PCRE pretty easy. http://builder.com -> Go To: Web Scripting (left menu) -> Cool Tools (right menu) -> Regular Expression Inspector (2/3 way down page)

Nested tags? Do you mean [ib] ? Or [i[b]]?

If you mean [ib], then I'm afraid what you want cannot be done in ereg_replace.

As far as I am aware, that is.

You may get a better response if you actually copy and paste the error message or whatever. If that's not possible at least give a brief description as to what the problem is. Having to make people go through extra steps to help you is not a very good idea.

Try it with ImageCreateTruecolor(), since ImageCreate() produces 8-bit indexed-color images... If that function doesn't exist, you're using a pre-2.x GD, and those can't do 24-bit images at all...

Good luck!

You can read and produce JPEGs with GD < 2.x, but any JPEG you read is stripped to 8-bit, with as many colors as the reader can allocate. Any JPEG you produce will be 8-bit as well.

GD stayed at 2.0.1 for quite a while (a year or more), which was a beta and had some serious bugs, but now it's being maintained again, and is up to 2.0.8... Unfortunately the PHP extension is broken and requires specific patches, so GD 2 support probably won't be widespread with ISPs until it's sorted out and stable... So you'll have to wait, or look into something like ImageMagick.

Hi,

You have to choose a protocol for AF_INET sockets. Try getprotobyname() with tcp and udp to get one.

The short answer is, yes.

The long answer is, if you have to ask then no.

Try searching the archives for something along the lines of "create mail account using php".

Hi.

I'm working on a project where I need to send a user an e-mail whose content is identical to an already existing PHP-generated web page. (This web page relies on session data to do its work.) The mail function in PHP requires that I save the HTML of this page into a variable and send it along as the third parameter. The simplest way to retrieve the HTML is through a socket connection, correct? The problem I'm suffering from, however, is that when I try to GET a page and send along with it ?session_name()=session_id(), the browser hangs for an indeterminate amount of time.

Here's the code I've been working with.

$fp = fsockopen ("www.example.com", 80, $errno, $errstr);

fputs ($fp, "GET /itemizeFoods.php?" . session_name() . "=" . session_id() . " HTTP/1.0\n\n");

while (! feof ($fp)) { $message .= fgets ($fp, 128); }

mail ($target_email, "Food Reports", $message, "From: " . $row["userFullName"] . " <" . $source_email . ">\n" . "Reply-To: " . $source_email . "\n" . "X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion() . "\n" . "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n" );

I've also tried just passing the query string as ?id=session_id() and including at the top of the the PHP-generated page the following.

session_id($id); session_start();

That also causes the browser to hang.

If I open a new browser and manually type itemizeFoods.php?PHPSESSID=396 (or whatever the ID happens to be of my current session) or link to itemizeFoods.php?396 the session continues just fine. The page loads properly and session variable values are consistent. It's only when I try to retrieve a page through a socket that the problems arises.

Others have referred me to the curl library, but the installation of PHP I have to work with was not compiled with curl.

If you have any ideas as to how I might fix of circumvent my problem, please let me know.

Can anyone suggest an ELEGANT way to find out if an array is made of empty strings or not?

example

$a = Array( '' , '' , '' ); //ok $b = Array( '' , '' , 'error' ); // not ok $c = Array( 'error' , '' , 'error' ); // not ok

Hi,

After I submited a query, if I use back then forward again the form will resubmit itself. Which I do not want. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Thanks, David

When the form is submitted check the database with the info that is being submitted. If a record matches the data being submitted then don't do the insert. If there is not a record there, then insert the record..

Either that or, if you are using mySQL, instead of using "INSERT INTO..." use "REPLACE INTO...". Though, there are a few cases where this might not work. Read the docs on "REPLACE".

But what about updates to the database...? Is there away not to have the information send to the server at all?

Not really. The back button uses the browers history to go back.. And there is no way to disable the back button.

There is one common method used to avoid this that is pretty reliable.

1. http://example.org/1.php submits to http://example.org/2.php 2. http://example.org/2.php processes the form, then uses a Location header to redirect to http://example.org/3.php. For example:

header("Location: http://example.org/3.php");

From the user's perspective, there are only two URLs involved, http://example.org/1.php and http://example.org/3.php. Clicking back from 3.php brings the user to 1.php and clicking forward simply brings the user to 3.php. It is impossible without clicking the submit button again to execute 2.php again.

Thus, 2.php does not display anything but just processes the form and redirects the user to the appropriate URL.

That's one technique, anyway.

Hi,

I'm trying to use disable_functions inside an Apache's VirtualHost, like this:

php_value disable_functions basename,chgrp,chmod,phpinfo

I tried both with and without " but the functions are not disabled. I'm using php_flag safe_mode on in the same virtual host. Any help on what I'm doing wrongly is appreciated.

Thanks. Rodolfo.

attached mail follows:

You can't disable functions in your httpd.conf. That particular directive is probably the only one that is server-wide and can only be set in your php.ini file. The reason is that it is too expensive to disable and re-enabled functions on a per-request basis which is what we would need to do if we allowed you to set it per-dir or per-vhost.
