if you want to get a reply

1) look in the manual/ archives first

2) use a helpful subject line
eg making links clickable

3) show us the code
you have tried to get it working - and this code will help greatly
in explaining what you are trying to do

4) show us the error message OR show us the output
and explain what is wrong with it

remember - you aren't paying for this - there are hundreds of messages a
day - personally I only skim read most of them - and if a question makes
little sense I'm not going to spend time on it.

<?php

$text = "This is a test. It is only a test.
What happens when I include a URL in my results text?

http://not.a.real.url/programs

This is only a test";

$clickable_text = preg_replace("#(http://[^\s]+)#i",
"<a href=\"$1\">$1</a>", $text);

echo $clickable_text;

I haven't been particularly strict with the allowed url charecters -
I've just allowed everything and assumed that the url ends with
whitespace (or end of file)

Hi all,

So I have a page that processes information and then "echo"s out a redirect
that looks like this:

The thing is, there are some variables that I would love to pass in $_POST
or $HTTP_POST_VARS to the page referred to in "$url".

Is there any way to stuff this data into either of these globals so that the
"$url" page can access 'em?

Thanks a bunch!

--Noel

attached mail follows:

Hi.

If you add them to the $url variable as in a query string, they
should be available in that page's $_GET array e.g.
if $url = "http://myhost.com/mypage.php?id=$id&page=$page&user=$user"

then you would have the values

$_GET{'id'}
$_GET{'page'}
$_GET{'user'}

created for you with the values as given.

Cheers

Scott

If you can't call your page with a "real" post (a form submitted), it would be possible to simulate it with this function (from Rasmus Lerdorf, AFAIK) :

function PostToHost($host, $path, $data_to_send) { $fp = fsockopen($host,80); fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\n"); fputs($fp, "Host: $host\n"); fputs($fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\n"); fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($data_to_send)."\n"); fputs($fp, "Connection: close\n\n"); fputs($fp, $data_to_send); while(!feof($fp)) { echo fgets($fp, 128); } fclose($fp); }

with $data_to_send = "formfield1=myfieldvalue1&formfield2=myfieldvalue2";

Otherwise, easier, couldn't you use sessions ? you would hide your $url into $_SESSION['url']

You can also build a form with hidden variables and use <body onload="document.formname.submit()"> to submit it. For javascript disabled browser put a "Continue" submit button

Noel,

To answer your original question, no, you cannot force the remote Web client to submit a POST. If you think about it, this is a good thing. You can, as another person pointed out, manually perform a POST from a PHP script, so that the user can GET your PHP script, initiating a POST. However, the POST request is sent from your Web server, not the Web client.

There are ways to "hide" URL variables without resorting to POST. As an example, some people use frames (not my preference). Of course, those who use frames to maintain a simple and clean URL do not (or rather, should not) rely on this for any sort of security. The real URL can be easily discovered.

Another idea would be to create a portal of sorts, where you have a PHP script that fetches a verbose URL for you. For example, you could have a PHP script located at http://example.org/search.php that contains the following:

Thus, a user who visits http://example.org/search.php would see the results of a Google search for PHP (Note: This is just a hypothetical example, and I am not sure whether this would violate Google's terms of use).

For this method to be useful to you, you must know the URL variables in advance, so you might need something more dynamic. Some people will redirect the user after setting some session variables, so that the "final destination" URL is very plain, but the Web client can still use GET to send the data.

Hopefully this will give you some ideas, so that you can find a method that works for you.

This will work perfectly! Actually, building a dynamic javascript function and/or hidden form will allow me to collapse a couple of other redirect systems on my site into one... Thanks a bunch!

James -

Don't know how you're working with Cookies and sessions for sure, but the default / "easy" way to check for an established session is to put "session_start();" at the top of every page that's going to access the session variables. That will check for an established/open session and make the registered session variables accessible to the page.

Then a logical check is as simple as using "session_is_registered()" like this:

if (session_is_registered("registered_variable_name")) //do something here if the person has already registered their session else //session not registered!

Hope this helps!

Take care,

I have moved an old web to a new server (Windows-2000) with fresh versions of php (4.3.0) and GD.

I get the error message "Unable to load dynamic library .../php_gd.dll. The specified procedure could not be found.

This looks like a false setting of the extension_dir path in php.ini but this is correct.

I have also put a copy of php_gd.dll on the c:/php directory where php.exe is located, but this does not help.

I have tried to limit the number of Image* routines involved by trying the simple php script given below, but the same error message keeps popping up.

Can someone give me a suggestion here?

To: Jean -Christian Imbeault

Thanks for helping out... I actually do not want a mailing list right now, I already have one. What I need is to use the same concept for some other email driven tasks.

After some searching using "process email" I realize I can use PHP to get the emails and parse its contents much like a webmail system.

I am not sure, but I think I need and imap extension installed. From another script, the programmer attempt to include the php_imap file, which I am not sure what is it too...

Does anyone by any chance know whether imap is a must for retrieval of emails or is it just like you say, extract files from the mail/username folder?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure how it's done exactly but I think the basic concept is to have a daemon running, or have your program run by cron, and have the program collect it's mail.

On Linux I think you can get your mail simply by fetching and parsing the file /var/spool/mail/"username", where username is the name of the account unsubscribe requests are mailed to.

But you want a mailing list, use major domo or some other ML spftware instead of writing your own.

99% of the time scripts such as this operate in the following manner. Lets say the script responds to emails sent to fooexample.com. The server which handles mail for example.com has an alias for the address "foo" which actually points to an external script. Most MTA's will allow you to do this (yes, even some for Windows, believe it or not). For example, in sendmail you could place a line in /etc/aliases or /etc/mail/aliases (depending on your installation) like the following:

foo: "|/usr/local/bin/myscript.php -s"

This would cause sendmail to send the text of any email sent to "foo" to myscript.php's stdin via a pipe. (Be aware that some sites with sendmail use the sendmail restricted shell, so there are some extra steps involved in getting an alias like the above to work, which I won't go into here).

"myscript.php" would need to be a PHP CLI script, meaning that it's chmod'ed executable and has:

#!/usr/local/bin/php

at the top or something similar. Then this script would have to read from stdin and parse the text it receives via regexes or some other method to determine how to handle it. The script would receive the full message, including all headers.

In PHP you can read from stdin by opening a filehandle to it:

$stdin = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');

Although in PHP 4.3.0 there are CLI specific constants defined which obseletes the above. For more info:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php

I've implementing a script like this before, but unfortunately it's written in Perl. Many of the concepts are similar, though, so if you know any Perl at all and think it may help you I can send it to you off-list.

HTH...

Hi,

I got serious problem I need to solve a.s.a.p. Well, I've developed a database application with PHP and MySql, I used sessions. While developing I used my own computer as a web server - Windows 2000 Pro, IIS 5, PHP 4.2.3 via ISAPI. And all my code was tested successfully while my computer is the server and the client. Now after moving the sources to the server (Windows 2000 Advanced Server) and exporting the MySql database to the server, the application fail. While debugging I got to a firm conclusion that the sessions doesn't work well. I copied the php.ini to the system root on the server and it still doesn't work.

Please advice me what to do in order to make the application work on the server.

Thanks I advance,

Hello,

I'm using Red Hat Linux 8.0. The Apache Server 2.0 and php 4.2.2 are installed when I install Linux. The server is installed in /var/. So, I don't know how to follow the installation instructions described in your web to set up php. Do I need to install apache and php again? Furthermore, I don't know what i need to edit the php.ini file and I have modified the httpd.conf file. Thus, could you feel free to describe the detailed instruction for me? Thanks for your help!

You likely not need to do anything, just start writing php, e.g. create file /var/www/html/phpinfo.php and write <?php phpinfo(); ?>

Now you should be able to access it from your browser using http://localhost/phpinfo.php If apache server is not running, run /etc/init.d/httpd start as root

Hi,

Many apologies if this has been covered before - but I haven't tracked it down in the archive and it's been annoying me for weeks.

I'm using a script to send an order number & encrypted cc number by GnuPG. Unfortunately the temporary files don't seem to be created causing error messages. Can anyone point me in the right direction - many thanks.

Script lines are;

$message = 'Order #' . $insert_id . "\n\n" . 'Number: ' . $GLOBALS['cc_toencrypt'] . "\n\n"; // I've tried this variable putenv ("GNUPGHOME=/home/www/.gnupg"); // I've tried this variable putenv ("GNUPGHOME=/home/.gnupg");

//set the environment variable for GPGPATH putenv ("GNUPGHOME=/usr/local/psa/home/ahosts/ppppp.com/home/.gnupg");

//generate token for unique filenames $tmpToken = md5(uniqid(rand()));

//create vars to hold paths and filenames $plainTxt = "/usr/local/psa/home/ahosts/ppppp.com/httpsdocs/tmp/" . "$tmpToken" . "data"; $crypted = "/usr/local/psa/home/ahosts/ppppp.com/httpsdocs/tmp/" . "$tmpToken" . "gpgdata";

//open file and dump in plaintext contents $fp = fopen($plainTxt, "w+"); fputs($fp, $message); fclose($fp);

//invoke GPG to encrypt file contents system("/usr/local/php_safe/bin --encrypt -ao $crypted -r 'Ralph Brookes <salesppppp.com>' $plainTxt");

//open file and read encrypted contents into var 251 $fd = fopen($crypted, "a+"); 252 $mail_cont = fread($fd, filesize($crypted)); 253 fclose($fd);

//delete files! unlink($plainTxt); 255 Unlink($crypted);

tep_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO, 'Extra Order Info', $mail_cont, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, '');

Error messages are;

Hello

Is it possible to get the transfer (traffic) size from a webpage as is stands in the apache access_log file

127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jan/2003:13:01:58 +0100] "GET /~torsten/cups/pdf.php HTTP/1.1" 200 48 (size)

When i work with outbut buffer i only get the html source size with ob_get_length.If there are images in the side this method faild ob_get_length ignores the images.

I can get the size if i parse the apache log file but there is no way to assign it to a customers homepage because i use a CMS.

Maybe there are other ways.

Requests for images bypass php, so you need get it from apache log.

Turn off magic quotes in the php.ini to not have them go in, and you will most likely get a bunch of error's, or pass what you select from the database through the stripslashes function like:

$query = mysql_query("SELECT field FROM table;"); $array = mysql_fetch_array($query);

$array[field] = stripslashes($array[field]);

Tim,

thanks but it still doesn't work. What puzzles me is that last night I reinstalled a 'vanilla' install of RedHat 8 from the distribution where I selected PHP and Apache. So now I am running PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 2.0.40, I make the change you recommened to httpd.conf, stop and restart the service and it still simply ignores the PHP code...this is driving me insane.

I'm very new to PHP. (have just bought the book "PHP and MySQL Web Deelopment") SAMS authors Luke Welling and Laura Thompson

I working with the examples in the book.

I have loaded MySQL, Apache and PHP onto a NT server. All the test passed as per the examples in the book.

Working with the the first example in chapter one.

I have the HTML document that when the quantities are entered the "processorder.php" should be called to show the results and do some calcs.

what happens is that the php file is called but I get an error message:

"Warning: Undefined variable typeqty in C:\apache group\apache\htdocs\processorder.php on line 23"

this varialbe is defined in the html document exactly as in the php document.

now this warning is repeated for all the variables that should have been passed to the php for processing.

What am I missing ?

Without seeing some code I would guess that it is register globals issue. It falls into the same explanation as the previous problem. You can fix this in one of two ways. 1) use the super globals instead of $typeqty use $_POST['typeqty'] or $_GET['typeqty'] depending on how it is passed. 2) turn register globals on in the php.ini file.

Hello,

I just recently upgraded from 4.2.3 to 4.3.0 and a script of mine has begun behaving erratically. The code is included at the bottom of this message. I am essentially updating a large (1.94m row) table to include a new field...the queries needed to do this updating are somewhat time consuming, so I have been updating all of this for about fifteen months now. However, since my 4.3.0 upgrade, this script can get through maybe 110 lines before halting. I get no errors posted with regards to the script, and no HTTP errors or timeout messages, it's as if the script thinks it's completed. If anyone could give me a clue-in as to what's up, I would be much obliged.

Cheers, Ben

ive recently started experiencing a problem from broadcasts made over a mailing list i wrote some time ago. up until now its been functioning fine, however recently it started sending out raw html unformatted (tags etc appearing in email), instead of the usual interpreted results. this coincided, as best i can tell, with my isp upgrading their server to php 4.3.0. the only change is in the subject line as follows;

this is the subject line from a working email; -Subject: update 10:32pm Dec 6 this is the subject line im getting now since the change (incorrect!); -Subject: update 9:54am Jan 9 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 From: [ ******** ] < ******** > Reply-To: ********

as you can see its now putting EVERYTHING within the header on that one line and ignoring the \n after each row (see relevant section of my code below) ..

$br_subjectc = "$br_subjectbox\n"; $br_subjectc .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"; $br_subjectc .= "Content-Type: text/html;\n\tcharset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n"; $br_subjectc .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n"; $br_subjectc .= "From: [$title] < $br_return >\n"; $br_subjectc .= "Reply-To: $br_return\n";

any idea what is causing that? ive looked on php.net and i cant see anything that catches my eye mentioned about this in the changelog. im not aware of any alteration to email structure standards either.

Hi all,

I'm making a new site for a client and he needs to put several different menus under a static FLASH menu. The bad part is that every item in the flash menu leads to different categories and these need different number of sub menus. I use MySQL & PHP 4. The categories and sub categories are something like this:

* Products <-- Flash static menu - Item 1 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 2 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 3 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 3-1 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 3-2 <-- MySQL fetched menu

* Services <-- Flash static menu - Item 1 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 1-1 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 1-2 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 2 <-- MySQL fetched menu - Item 3 <-- MySQL fetched menu

What would be the best solution for this? Another problem to solve is the creation of new children into the menu... sub categories AND items dynamically.

Thanks in advance,

I don't know about the flash part, but submenus are simple. Your menu items table needs a "parent" column, where the id of the parent menu item, but for top level menus (Flash static menu) it will be 0. Then first select all menu items with parent=0 and as you loop throught the result result, recursively get all child elements. This function will get you started:

get_childs($menu_id) { $resp=array(); $res=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM menu_items WHERE menu_parent_id='$menu_id'"); if(mysql_num_rows($res)) { for($i=0;$tmp=mysql_fetch_array($res); $i++) { $resp[$i]['menu']=$tmp; // ['menu'] will contain info about particular menu item $resp[$i]['childs']=get_childs($tmp['menu_id']); // ['menu'] will contain all childs of this menu items, each child will again contain ['menu'] and ['childs'] etc. } } return $resp; }

$menu_tree = get_childs(0);

echo '<pre>'; print_r($menu_tree); echo '</pre>';

HELP!!!

I have read through the manual about using $_POST['<name>'] to retrieve data from forms, but what happens when a form element is not filled in or checked?

If I have a checkbox on a form called "chk1" I get an error from PHP when I try this: $chk1 = $_POST['chk1']; // error if user did not chech the checkbox on the form!!!

How do ya usefully retrieve the fact that a form element has not been filled in/checked?

List, I have a website that uses (too) many frames. At its most ugly, it will load 8 frames at once. All of the pages in these frames activate the session, and some of them modify session variables. Can this cause the pages to load slowly? Can a page have the session file write locked and make other pages wait?

Well, I have no idea what Fletcher's checksum is, but if you have a version in C that's not too long (<20 lines of code, say), it shouldn't be too difficult to convert it into PHP. There should be enough people here sufficiently proficient in both C and PHP to at least give you a pointer in the right direction!

Thanks for the reply.

I do have the C code that does this. If anybody can easily translate it to PHP, it would be very apriciated.

Here is the C code. There is a decode function, but I don't need it in PHP because I have a C program listening to serial port on the other end that will validate the checksum.

/* * operator fletcher_encode */ fletcher_encode( buffer, count ) unsigned char* buffer; long count; { int i; unsigned char c0 = 0; unsigned char c1 = 0; * ( buffer + count - 1 ) = 0; * ( buffer + count - 2 ) = 0; for( i = 0; i < count; i++) { c0 = c0 + * ( buffer + i ); c1 =c1 +c0; } * ( buffer + count - 2 ) = c0 - c1; * ( buffer + count - 1 ) = c1 - 2*c0; }

My problem with PHP was with the unsigned char.

Thanks again,

Since, mathematically, the binary representations of floats used on computers in general is only an approximation to the real value (albeit a very close approximation), you can never rely on repeated subtraction of one float from another value to end up exactly where you thought it would. When I were a lad, learning about these new-fangled computer thingies at university, it was drummed into us never to do this:

for ($x=0; $x<10.0; $x+=0.1) { ... stuff involving $x ... }

but either this:

for ($x=0; abs($x-10.0)<a_very_small_value; $x+=0.1) {... stuff ...}

or, better yet:

for ($i=0; $i<100; $i++) { $x=$i*0.1; .... stuff .... }

The first version tests for an end value that's *close enough* to the desired one, but errors in the approximation of 0.1 will still get magnified along the way. The second version is better because you're dealing with exact integer quantities, and calculating the closest representation of the desired float each time round the loop -- no magnification of approximation errors, and a well-defined termination condition.

(Well, actually, since C hadn't been invented yet (nor even B, and no that's not a joke!), the syntax we used was a lot uglier than that, but the principle's the same! ;)

Cheers!

This extension would allow me to drop my own text-base objects using the php ncursus extension. But has has some bugs which are hard to fix. So yes, please commit. I guess you should put it into PECL..

Hi,

I'm planning to build a web album for my digital photographs, and have some questions regarding the design:

1) Is it better to store the images within the database, or just store pointers to the images which is put outside, in the filesystem?

2) At log in, I want to show to which albums new pictures have been added since last visit. For performance reasons, should information about last added pictures be added to the database, or is it ok to make a MySQL-query each time, comparing the add-date for every picture in every album with the users last log in date?

3) If I've understood things right, there is functions within PHP that can handle picture resizing? Is that correct?

Best regards,

Anders Thoresson

How often will this get hit? If often you could also update a string in a test file the same time you do your database/album updates. But a huge traffic is not a cause for concern you should be able to safely execute a query every time to find out the lastest pictures/albums updated.

Yes, some good tutorials out there. I don't know about internal PHP functions, I often just call ImageMagik from inside my php script to re-size my images, but I'm sure there are plenty of ways...

Unless the images are small and easily managed I would recommend to store the images in the filesystem. You'll find this method is faster and more versitile. A simple script can be written to reconsile the database with the filesystem should you need to tamper with it.

I don't foresee any bottlenecks here. Just store the timestamp of the last login and the timestamp of each upload. If you're clever you can perform the comparison with one db query. Define the timestamp as the index for the album table and I guarentee speed will not be an issue even with a heavy traffic load and tens of thousands of entries.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php Or if you need to get more sophisticated such as adding water-marks and stuff I recommend you install (or have your ISP install) imagemagick.

Sounds like a fun project. Good luck!

I don't want to discourage you from hacking your own code ... that's phat, so plz take this just as some heads-up info:

IMHO, Gallery can't be beat for a web photo album. It's got some of its own problems and lacking features, but it's a solid idea with a lot of code for doing, well, just about everything you'd want to do with a web photo album. I didn't write it nor know the people who do. However, I do use it, and have hacked at it for my own albums:

http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php

If for no other use, it's probably a valuable project to study. Check it out, and dive into its code for features you like. You may find ways to implement some things well, and, like I, find ways to NOT implement things poorly. (BTW, it doesn't use a database for anything!)

That said ....

> 1) Is it better to store the images within the database, or just store > pointers to the images which is put outside, in the filesystem?

Keep files in the filesystem :)

Personal photo albums tend to be low-traffic. And you're aiming for a very specific functionality ... a repeating query is probably a safe solution (seems like the only one, too).

Yes. http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php

Hi there,

So it is the browsers problem. I tested what you said and Mozilla acts as you stated and IE does as well. I guess my question is. Is there no way to close clear out the session when the user logs out?

The way I set things up the class that I wrote just gets the current sessionid and does a select from the database to see if it has been logged. The problem this creates is that someone could sit down and reopen a browser and have access to the site as if they where logged because the session is not gone.

Hmm - Like a said I have never used sessions before so I am learning about them. Thank you for your input...

I was wondering is it possible to "re-throw" an error that one has caught with a custom error handler if, for example, I only wanted to deal with the errors generated by the library I was working on? Or perhaps some way to only catch a custom defined error type?

I suppose I'm trying to overload the trigger_error method to work like exceptions and perhap that isn't the appropiate thing to do.

Is there a consensed upon pattern for dealing with error conditions in PHP? I'm finding that using trigger_error was very natural for me as the author of a tool/library (Magpie an RSS parser) but it makes it very difficult for my users to cope with the errors.

I have successfully installed oracle 8.1.7 w/ php and have it configured to run from the command line. When I run a simple script that connects, and selects records from the database, the last line is a segmentation fault error. This does not seem to happen when the same script is run through the browser.

Can anyone offer any help or advice? The code is listed below.

#!/usr/bin/php <? function oci8Connect(){ $db_conn = ocilogon("usrname","pwd", "dbase"); if (!$db_conn){ echo "Help<br>"; exit (); } echo "Connected<br>"; return ($db_conn); }

Hi,

This may exist, but I haven't been able to find it, and I think it would be REALLY helpful and convenient.

The idea is this:

When you write a script and call a function:

<?php

$whatever = previously_uncalled_function("one","two");

PHP would automatically look for a file named "previously_uncalled_function" in your /include/functions/ directory.

This would eliminate a LOT of include() and require() calls (or at least make them automatic) in a script. The function would only get read in if it was used.

This would be very convenient. When you create a new function you drop it in that directory (with a very specific, unique name, of course), and it can immediately be called anywhere in the site. And, you only incur the disk IO to read it when its used for the first time in a script.

The 3 things I want to avoid are:

1) Explicitly including every function, every time it's needed. 2) Disk IO of including a function when it's not needed. 3) Taking the easy route and including a file with a bunch of functions when most won't get called.

Does this already exist, or is this a good idea (if not, any reasons why)? I personally would love to see it implemented if it isn't already.

Hi, You can use the backtick operator to delete whatever you have permissions to delete:

$directory = "path/*.*"; `rm -rf $directory`;

They aren't quotes, they are backticks (to the left of the 1 key on most keyboards). It is very useful for any command line stuff you have permissions to do.
