Hello Michael,

please go to your Bash-Shell. There you type:

Maybe I'm not understanding your situation properly so please correct me
if I'm wrong. URLs should have the FQDN not IP address. DNS was created
so that fixed, easy to remember, names could be given to computers not
numbers. The numbers (IP address) may change.

If you are running a server, its hostname should be fixed, e.g.
mybox.myisp.com whilst its ip address may change.

I suggest that you use $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] in the URL. Its populated
with Apache under linux, but whatever you are using you should have a
way to get the hostname. Best if you are running a server is to get a
static ip address from your isp but few will have them these days (I'm
on a static IP address from Demon Internet). As long as your hostname
remains the same you will have little problem. Your isp should provide
forward DNS for your hostname (they should provide reverse too). Maybe
for dns you may need something like dyndns.org.

Some broadband ISPs use hostnames based upon the IP address e.g.
dsl-111.222.333.444.myisp.com. It saves them playing with DNS and are
intended for end users (who would usually have no problem with it as
they would not be trying to run a server).

Hope this helps.

Hello all,
Oh my god
As a perl hacker I did it that easy way:

Please go to your Linux Bash-Shell. There you type:

MYIP=`/sbin/ifconfig ppp0 grep inet | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d" " -f1` ;

$MYIP has now your dyn IP Adress.

Yes. So make up a URL with it and _hope_ that when a user clicks it the
address has not changed.

My point was simply that, for a server, the server FQDN hostname should
be fixed and never change. Use the hostname in any URL and avoid the IP
address problem completely.

Then you write a short script, that whenever IP changes then start it anew.

hi all,

I am looking for any tool in PHP using PostgreSQL for setting up a collaborative web based system for a small group of people.

Mainly we need a system to track a list of tasks and maybe to track the task related to a project (therefore some kind of project tracking).

I have been looking around during more than one month, and the best that I have found seems to be phpGroupware, PHProjekt and TuTOS but I am hoping to get some comments/suggestions from you guys.

Many thanks in advance.

You have started a new thread by taking an existing posting and replying to it while you changed the subject.

That is bad, because it breaks threading. Whenever you reply to a message, your mail client generates a "References:" header that tells all recipients which posting(s) your posting refers to. A mail client uses this information to build a threaded view ("tree view") of the postings.

With your posting style you successfully torpedoed this useful feature; your posting shows up within an existing thread it has nothing to do with.

Always do a fresh post when you want to start a new thread. To achieve this, click on "New message" instead of "Reply" within your mail client, and enter the list address as the recipient. You can save the list address in your address book for convenience.

I didn't see any sorting in your code. so maybe I missed something, however you could try natcasesort() function.

your new line would look like this:

while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) $filenames[] = natcasesort($file);

please note that this sorts in alphanumeric order and not case sensitive.

Hope this helps,

Hi Fella!

I found the problem and fixed it. I only have one php.ini which is found under 'c:\winnt\'. What happen was that a couple of months ago, someone in my company without my knowledge had made a backup copy of php.ini and put it into hte D:\ drive. So, IIS for some reason didn't go to c:\winnt\ directory and jumped from c: drive to d: drive and use the backup php.ini. I fixed the problem by renaming hte file, from php.ini to php.ini_safe. This then cause the IIS to revert back to the php.ini in c:\winnt.

Hope this knowledge will help everyone one day. The weird thing is that when I use phpinfo(). It didnt show any file path. It just said the filepath is 'php.ini', no 'c:\winnt\php.ini' at all. It just said 'php.ini' before I renamed the file. After renaming the file, it still say 'php.ini' as if nothing had changed.

Take care, Scott

I use Homesite (v5) as well. And while it is a very useful tool, I just wish it were better supported. Not only is it a memory hog but it's got a leak like a seive. Earlier versions were worse and at least I don't have to re- boot every other hour with v5. But I still get loads of pointer errors, exception errors when I close down, etc. If there was anything else that had the same features as HS, I'd start using that in an instant. Sadly, I've yet to come across anything like that so I'm stuck with HS.

attached mail follows:

I want to be able to retrieve POST variable in one PHP script (which is straight-forward) and then send these from the script to another one returning the processed input.

I have written a script that will parse a frames-based page and render it as a flat page (i.e. all frames displayed as a table in one HTML file) - this is so that I can create a website using frames, and still let browsers that don't support frames to access it without my having to create a separate version of the site.

e.g.: http://www.redradish.co.uk/rr/index.htm (frames based site) http://www.redradish.co.uk/php/framesprocessor.php?Frameset=http://www.redra dish.net/rr/index.htm&RenderMethod=1&MainFrame=main&AllHead=1 (the same site rendered as single page).

The problem is that if in the frames-based site one of the frames is a form submission, I need to be able to send this data to the original form and retrieve the output to display in the rendered page.

e.g. http://www.redradish.co.uk/php/framesprocessor.php?Frameset=http://www.redra dish.net/rr/index.htm&TargetName=main&Target=http://www.redradish.net/rr/con tact/contactF.htm&MainFrame=main&RenderMethod=1&LinkSearch=1&AllHead=1&Debug =1 (this is a page that has a contact form).

I can't find any information on how to forward such a request.

The script in question is located at: http://www.redradish.co.uk/php/framesprocessor.php

It uses these variables (passed using GET or POST): Frameset frameset page. This needs to be parsed and a static HTML page created. Target (optional) full URL of page to be displayed in frmae named TargetName. TargetName (optional) name of the frame that $Target should appear in. MainFrame (optional) is the frame from which header info, etc. is taken. Default is first frame. AllHead (optional) If set (is 1 or more), copies <HEAD> content from all frames. RenderMethod (optional) defines how the frameset is to be represented: 1 - All frames dumped into new page in order they appear in frameset. 2 - tables are used to attempt to recreate original format Default is 1. LinkSearch (optional) how links are replaced: 1 - Only specific tags are replaced 2 - Anything within quotes (' or ") that contains document path is replaced Default is 1. Debug If set (greater than 0), debug info is added in comments.

It works to a good degree on most frames-based sites, but does have a couple of failings (such as the one mentioned) that I would like to overcome.

The other problem is handling JavaScript in e.g. <frame src="JavaScript:openpage(xx)">. There is no way to process JavaScript in PHP that I am aware of - does anyone have a workaround for this? i.e. so that my script can process the JavaScript function and retrieve the relevant page for inclusion in the rendered page.

Hope someone can help!

Thanks.

Think you may have misread the problem, or I am not good at explaining it ;-)

I can receive POST variables fine, and GET. My problem is that when a frameset (which my script renders) contains a form, I need to retrieve the OUTPUT from the form's target (i.e. ACTION tag), so I need to send all the POST (or GET... but that is easy) data received by my script onwards to another.

Does this make more sense?

There is probably a better way but what I do is create hidden fields in the form of the first page and populate it with the variable I need to go on to the next one. Ie for variable a, b, c, d coming to the first page...

[Do something with some or all of those variables here]

echo "<input type=hidden name=a value=$a>"; echo "<input type=hidden name=b value=$b>"; echo "<input type=hidden name=c value=$c>"; echo "<input type=hidden name=d value=$d>"; echo "<input type=submit value=\"Next Page\"> echo "</form>

That is what I usually do because I don't know of a better way. So if you don't find one you can always resort to that. And if you need these to move on automatically by telling another frame window what the variables are while this one is still visible, you can use javascript to send variables to other frames. That is out of the scope of this message and I'd have to look up the syntax for that, but it is definitely possible.

Why is my solution messy?

My script has to deal with a form from ANY server, it is not written simply to process framesets on mine. I can therefore not rewrite the page from which the form is posted (as I won't have access to the server), otherwise I could obviously write an elegant solution that wouldn't need to repost anything.

If I am missing something, please elaborate. Thanks!

The solution must assume that I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS to the first script (from which the form is posted). Obviously if I assume access to the script, I wouldn't be doing it this way anyway, it is very inefficient. While the example script is located on my server, this is just to show what I am trying to achieve.

I have received a solution that should work (thank-you Hartmut). I am going to test it shortly.

A trick I picked up from someone on this list:

<?php $$state = ' selected="true"'; print <<<END <select name="state"> <option value="AL"$AL>Alabama</option> <option value="AK"$AK>Alaska</option> <option value="AZ"$AZ>Arizona</option>  </select> END; ?>

That's it! If $state is set to 'AZ', then the $$state line creates a variable called $AZ, and sets its value to ' selected="true"'. Running the code produces this HTML:

<select name="state"> <option value="AL">Alabama</option> <option value="AK">Alaska</option> <option value="AZ" selected="true">Arizona</option>  </select>

This solution might be considered ugly for several reasons:

* all sorts of warnings are thrown, one for each unset state variable * it's entirely un-obvious to the casual code-reviewer what's going on. So it requires more documentation. * you run the risk of stepping on pre-existing variables.

However, the upside, namely, eliminating a *ton* of code, is attractive enough to me that I use this for most select boxes I do.

Here is another option for you to sample.

The function takes two parameters, one is the name of the list box, the other is the value to be initally selected. The second parameter is optional, if not present, no value will be inially selected. I do not remember where I picked this up, but I have used it many times.

--------------------------------------------------- function MakeStateDropMenu($Name,$Selected=""){

$StateDropMenu=<<<StateDropMenu <select name="$Name"> <option value="AL">Alabama</option> <option value="AK">Alaska</option> <option value="AZ">Arizona</option> </select>

StateDropMenu; if ($Selected){ $StateDropMenu = preg_replace("|\"$Selected\">*|","\"$Selected\" selected>",$StateDropMenu); } return $StateDropMenu; } --------------------------------------------------- To call function from page: <?php echo MakeStateDropMenu("states","$selectedstate"); ?>

Okay...I am now having difficulty with putting things INTO the database.

The form is on another page, and links to this one.

And what is the problem?

What does $Query contain?

After doing mysql_query() what does mysql_error() show?

Now, this is a rather unlikely configuration, but ...

I am working on a linux based web work based on apache and php, but the authentication system on site is based on MS active directory.

Does anyone know if apache + php can be configured to authenticate users through active directory?

Is it possible to write htaccess files that queries MS active directory?

Can we treat MS active directory just like any other LDAP, i.e. is it LDAP V2 compliant?

I value any response.

Thanks,

Yes you can use java classes... from php. Yes you can write & compile C++ to a dll and use it.

For Java: Notepad + the JDK :) DLL's (C++) Notepad + dgcpp :)

IF you want a GUI - Java = JBuilder is best I've used. C++ - typically VC++ :\

There are some free alternatives but the above are the 2 industry tools.

But your question regarding tools to do either is still not PHP :)

These are not errors, but notices, you can get around it using: if(isset($i) && array_key_exists($GLOBALS, $i)) echo $GLOBALS[$i];

or you might prefer setting error_reporting to not display notices

I know my English is bad and I probably didnt articulate the question properly. I understand that some people think that newbies asking questions, or particpating in discussions should be subject to rude retorical questions, and I know that these people tend to feel that they need to place their 2 cents when they have nothing to add to the conversation.

I understand that I'm not a briant coder or I might not have the best english. BUt I hope to learn or help someone else who asks a question that I can answer ... if I can't then I hope to learn from the answers he might recieve.

Didier,

It's not that people object to stupid questions being posed - or, indeed poor use of English. Some of the best responses to queries I've seen are from people for whom English is not their first language.

What people do object to is questions being posed to the incorrect lists - I'm sure there are plenty of forums and mailing lists dedicated to both the areas you are keen to investigate. These will undoubtedly be the better sources of information.

By keeping the lists dedicated to specific areas, even where these can interact, the lists are kept to more manageable proportions.

Good luck with your explorations.

Hello,

Long time reader, first time e-mailer :-). I am having a pretty strange issue with fgets and a socket, and was hoping that perhaps someone here can help me. First, my code:

function dowhois($who) {

$data = array("");

$whom = trim($who);

$fp = fsockopen ("127.0.0.1", 43, $errno, $errstr, 30) or die("Could not open socket to proxy");

if (!$fp) { die("$errstr ($errno)\n"); } else { fputs ($fp, "$whom\r\n") or die("Could not write to socket"); while ($fp && !feof($fp)) { $packet = fgets($fp, 4096) or die("Could not read from socket"); array_push($data, $packet) or die("Could not push data into array"); } fclose ($fp); } return $data; }

As you can see, this is a function that accepts a string as an argument and is supposed to open a connection to a local WHOIS server, query for that string and return the results in an array. Unfortunately, when I call this function I always trip the third die();, "Could not read from socket." fgets always trips this. I am running PHP 4.3.0. I will also share some things I have learned in the last two days worth of problem-solving:

- If I use fread instead of fget, I can pull the data, although it looks pretty worthless (I need \n terminated to parse the output properly) - Changing $fp from blocking to non-blocking alleviates no problems - Changing the max line length to anything does not cause issues - I have turned on auto_detect_line_endings to no avail - I have a pretty much identical script that does an HTTP query and that works. 3rd party php scripts that use sockets also work. It seems that WHOIS is causing the problem?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

Regards, Ben

Hi, I have succesfully installed php with Apache and Mysql under FreeBSD; everything is working great...but after installing it I realized that I need some more "extensions" installed as well, such as GD and so on. Now, the question is: What should I do to add the new extensions to the existing installation without having to reinstall everything again? Will I keep the old settings if I only add the new extension??? Thanks for anybody's help.

Hi....

I'm developing a site where the user shall be able to upload files. The size of theese files can range from approx. 1-500 Mb. The problem is that the file upload is stored in memory and starts to swap with large files (~ > 100 Mb). I want the uploaded file to be written directly to disk. Is there any settings for this?

Server info: Cobalt RaQ 4 512 Mb RAM Cobalt Linux release 6.0 (Shinkansen-Decaf) apache 2.0.43 PHP 4.2.3

Unfortunately not that I know of with PHP. However, I had to do the same thing for our users here and I found a great solution to be mod_perl for Apache. It writes to disk into a temporary file and then copies that file into the dir you specify. This isn't evangelism, just informing you of how I eventually solved the same problem on my end. Also look into libapreq for Apache... simplifies things even more. However, I'd stick with Apache 1.3.27 if you go this route though, mod_perl's Apache 2 version isn't quite up to production snuff.

Hope this helps.

Hi to all, I found this error in my code:

class BaseForm {

var $_fields; var $_method; var $_postedData; var $_formAction;

.... ....

function init($eMsgFile,$method,$formAction) { ... ...

$this->_method=strtoupper($method);

----->>> Why next line gives me the error "variable _POST is undefined" ??? <<<------ $this->_postedData=${"_".$this->_method};

$this->_formAction=(empty($formAction))?basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']):$formAction;

}

Is it normal????

Thank you a lot!

There's nothing in your posted code that could cause two inserts into mysql. The only thing I can think of is that somehow, your script is getting executed twice. Is there any way that could be happening?

Isn't it a little bit too much of paranoia for autocompletion? In programming schools they make you writing the programs on paper so you understand it better :)

I, personally, only care about the code highlighting. Autocompleting often exposes you to make silly mistakes (not always, of course) and these are the hardest ones to debug. Copying, pasting and replacing is much "safer", IMHO.

For that, I prefer EditPlus on win32 - simple autocompletion (I wrote one for them -
