As far as I know it does, because I'm doing it! (However, I *am* using
Windows NT4 and a rather old version of PHP.)

My Windows environment is a test-bed for a Sun Solaris environment using the
same version of PHP, and scripts transfer unchanged and work flawlessly in
both environments.

Cheers!

Well, yes and no. There was just a new 'crumb' class released (see

http://www.phpclasses.org/browse.html/package/934.html

for more) which will let you track where you've been. You can then put
up a 'back' link to your last page for the user, or otherwise direct it;
although the user's browser history will actually only be going forward,
you'll get the forward and back that you need.

If I remember right the problem is that the session must be deleted if the visitor closes the browser. I think it can be done with the method that "ugly sex" sites use for opening ads when their window is closed. An example: <body onunload="window.open('/destroysession.php?SID=....')"> I know it's not a 100% reliable sollution, but in javascript what is that? This way you can make a request that'll destroy the session and sends javascript code that immediately closes the window. It works for me in opera but not in mozilla :(( Maybe there's another sollution, the idea is to somehow send a a request when the onunload event happens (I'm sure you already knew this Scott). I tried to search in google for how to make http request but didn't find anything really useful in a few minutes, of course that doesn't mean that it can't work at all. Good luck with it Larry! Arpi

It's no problem. We're all very interesting in finding out what can work.

Maybe I can help with one of this problem. The Gecko browser does have the option of blocking the opening of hte unrequest window which is maybe why yours doesn't work in Mozilla. Just wondeirng...

Why does *what* return T-error?

If this is an error message, please cut-and-paste the exact error message, and the relevant section of code indicating which line is the one on which the error occurs.

> Should I jsut > replace my old ways with $HTTP_SESSION_VARS for sessions and > $HTTP_POST_VARS for posted form vars from now on or what?

Probably not. The $_* versions are the newer ones, and you should use them if you have a recent enough version of PHP -- but if your PHP is older than 4.1.0 (in which case: why?), you will need to use the $HTTP_*_VARS versions.

Cheers!

Nowt wong wi' that!

> > the if should be: > > if ((statement)&&(statement))

That's not true! The syntax of "if" is:

if (expression) statement;

and one possible expression is:

expression && expression

so this is a valid if condition:

if (expression && expression)

Now, you *may* need additional parentheses around the expressions if they contain lower-priority operators than &&, but they are not required.

Also: a statement is *not* an expression, so the if condition can never include statements!

Cheers!

I would recommend phpWebSite http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu .

The newest version coming out is very promising, and uses the PEAR libraries. It is XML compliant. Better than the NUKE clones, etc.

$oneDay = ( 60 * 60 * 24 ); $timeStamp = date( "U" ) + ( $oneDay * 125 );

> or 03:30 hours next?

$oneHour = ( 60 * 60 ); $timeStamp = date( "U" ) + ( $oneHour * 3.5 );

This is just one of the many different ways it can be done.

<?php

/* for getting a future or past timestamp use mktime(void) function that returns current unix timestamp in seconds

The simplest way is with strtotime() for example

$stamp = strtotime("+ 125 days");

It does sound like you're right. Like ZA is perhaps allowing the user's request to go twice. This is akin to people who double click on links because that's what they're used to doing on windows icons. However, it seems a bit odd how it selects to do it. It seems that if it did it twice on every call, one would expect the count to go immediately to 2 rather than start at one. Or does the session only begin after that first item is clicked?

Have you tested this on several machines?

i am writing a shopping site for training (just out of interest).

When a user clicks "add to basket" i want to check whether an item with that id is already in my session ($ALCOHOLE["items"]), if so, redirect them the the view_cart page, if not then append it to the $ALCOHOLE["items"] array as $key => $value pairs.

I have played around with all sorts of loops and sorts all day but still cannot get it sorted. Can anyone suggest where I am going wrong or has anyone got a better method they would care to suggest?

Couldn't you use in_array() on your $ALCOHOLE array so see if your "item" is in it?

If it is, then use header() to redirect, or append the value.

What's the format of your "item" variable and maybe we can help more.

This is more than likely a disparity between the error_level settings on your local server and the ISP's server. There's a couple of things you can do about this:

(1) turn error_reporting up on your test server to E_ALL, and rewrite to eliminate all the warnings; this is technically probably the best solution, but the most work.

(2) put an error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE) at the start of all your scripts.

(3) persuade your ISP to turn down the default error reporting on their server -- there's really no reason to have notice-level messages turned on on a production site. (Personally, I'd say that a production site shouldn't send *any* PHP errors to the browser -- they should either be turned off completely, or sent to a logfile for you to peruse periodically.)

Cheers!

Just a suggestion - you might want to disable the ability to input html code in the messages, as a precautionary messure. I tested the script and was able to make a mess of the page after submitting.

Thanks.

Any ideas after looking at the code why I'm having difficulty publishing the file to a MS IIS server with undeclared indexes and variables if it works on Apache server?

The IIS one sounds as though it has E_NOTICE set. I feel its good practice to initialise variables before using them (then the warnings do not occur), but otherwise set error reporting to E_ALL ~E_NOTICE (from memory as I don't have a computer with php switched on at the moment). Its detailed in the manual.

My Full system settings are IIS 6.1, Windows XP Professional, etc. I'll be publishing the script later and most will have CHMOD settings. Now I guess I need to know how to fix it on my test server and then what the CHMOD settings should be...

As for Sean's email, I just did those settings and I'll have the results later today. I'm only home for lunch, need to get back to school...

attached mail follows:

I'm using imap_open in PHP 4.3.0 to successfully access every pop server I've tried - except 1: "mail.fea.net". I know the mail server, port, login, and password are correct because I can successfully log into the pop server with both telnet and Outlook.

Here's the code:

if ($pop_inbox = imap_open("{".$mailserver."/$mailbox_type:$port/notls}",$login,$password)):

I've tried every variation of the code, such as using "notls" or not. In any event, I know the code works because I can log into every other pop server I've tried.

imap_last_error() returns: Can not authenticate to POP3 server

Has anyone else run into this? Is there a way to see more about the interaction between imap_open and the pop server?

Hi,

I'm using I.E. 6. I noticed that register_globals was set ON in my php.ini file so I changed it to OFF in as per the security warning. I've noticed a side effect. When I submit a form via POST and then go back from the results page, my form has been cleared, i.e.., as if the page has been reloaded. Is this a normal effect of setting register_globals OFF? Is there a way to continue caching?

Thanks, Don

If you are using the recommended setting of off then you get at your variables with the new super-globals, that is: $myvar = $_POST['myvar']; // for POST data. $myvar = $_GET['myvar']; // for GET data. $myvar = $_REQUEST['myvar']; // for both POST and GET data.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for your response but I don't think this is what I was asking; could be wrong though.

What I want to know is why is my initial HTML form is empty when I click on the back browser button. There is no PHP in my form, just straight HTML. I only use PHP to process the form, not to create it.

Order of events ---------------- Fill out form Click submit PHP processes script and returns confirmation page User clicks browser BACK button and returns to form Where have the user's entries vanished to?

Thanks, Don

This doesn't have anything to do with PHP. Whether or not a form will be populated or not after hitting the back button completely depends on whether or not the browser decided to cache that page or not. By default, a page served up by PHP will not be cached. You can make it cacheable by sending an appropriate cache-control header. However, in this case I think you said that the page was not even a PHP one, just static HTML in which case it should have gotten cached. Have a look at the HTTP headers the page generates.

This should in no way be related to register_globals.

Try using a different block cipher mode. When encrypting with ECB, as you said, your plaintext must have a length that is a multiple of the blocksize for the cipher. If it's anything less, you're going to get some garbage at the end of the decrypted ciphertext. I believe that mcrypt uses zeroes padding for ECB mode.

You might want to try one of the other block cipher modes, like CBC or CFB. This will require that you use random IVs for each encryption, but it's much more secure than using ECB mode. Even though you create an IV in your code below, ECB mode ignores it -- if you encrypt the same plaintext multiple times using the same key, you'll end up with the same ciphertext. With random IVs and the proper mode, this wouldn't happen. This will require that you store the IV for each encryption along with the ciphertext, but that's fine, as storing the IV along with the ciphertext is not a security problem.

I'm not sure what mcrypt uses for padding on it's various block cipher modes, but it might help. It'll be more secure than ECB, at any rate.

All

I've been trying to compile php4 to run under HP-UX 11 64 bit and I get errors on documents when trying to include files. As far as I can tell everything else works. The message only appears when I do an include with a soft path suh as:

require('includes/config.inc.php' );

I do not however, have any problems doing:

require('./includes/config.inc.php' );

The error I get is below. Can anyone tell me how to fix this or at least point me in the right direction?

*** Error Begins *** Fatal error: Failed opening required 'includes/config.inc.php' (include_path='/usr/local/lib/php') in /opt/apache/htdocs/admin/includes/auth.inc.php on line 24 *** Error Ends ***

Hi, I would like to know if there is way to measure how much memory a script uses during execution. Althought threre is no such function in the manual, in my opinion there must be some indication how much memory is used because of the memory_limit directive in the php.ini file. So if php is able to determine the maximum level it should be able and to give indication and for the actual.

Thanks in advance Peio Popov

This is a bit off-topic, but I would suggest ignoring any error messages from IE. It will generally "hide" the real error and show you some generic page instead. This can be very misleading. Go with Netscape's assessment of the problem.

> I guess what I'm hoping for is some wild stabs in the > dark as to what the problem might be, and where I > might start looking.

There are a few different ways you can get a "document contained no data" message:

1. You have an endless loop somewhere in your code, so that under certain circumstances, the script never completes. 2. You have an endless loop in the form of protocol-level redirects (using header()), so that the Web client continues to make HTTP requests without ever receiving a 200 response. 3. The network connection is terminated. This can occur when the server crashes, among other things.

I can think of no other ways to receive this error (please, someone chime in if I have left one out). So, you can try to rule out possibilities one by one.

Endless loops in your code might be difficult to identify if the logical path through your code required to generate it is rare. Sometimes looking through your code with this in mind is the best way to find the problem.

Endless amounts of protocol-level redirects can be detected pretty easily. If you can reproduce it in any way, tcpdump or some other debugging tool can reveal the HTTP transactions. Short of this, many requests within a very small window of time from the same IP is a good indicator as well.

If the Web server crashes under certain circumstances to cause this error, this can be the most difficult to track down. Your best bet is to be able to at least reproduce the steps necessary to crash the server. If you believe it might be only demonstrable under load, you will want to test the application under heavy load to see if you can reproduce the error.

> - (occasionally) makes use of header() redirects

I would recommend looking at these first. Make sure there is no way for the client to enter into an endless loop of redirects.

Anyway, I hope that helps. Sometimes just knowing some common cases that result in the same error can help you identify the problem.

Good luck.

I'd say Outlook Express (untested of course). The reason: I once helped a guy that could not send an email to one specific person, it was because of a Garman character in the persons name in his address book. Try creating an english IMAP folder and see if OE can read that?

Yes, I've tried using the Content-Disposition header. It doesn't seem to work...here are the relevant parts of my code:

<snip> // Change Content-Type so that it matches the MIME-type of the part header('Content-Type: ' . $type . '/' . $subtype); // Check if there is a name for the part if (isset($name)) { header('Content-Disposition: inline; filename=' . $name); } else { header('Content-Disposition: inline'); } </snip>

I've tried printing $type, $subtype and $name and they all contain correct values...still no luck.

As per your suggestion I tried using wget -S to check the headers. Here are the results:

I'm VERY confused about line 11! The type (for this particular request) should be image/bmp (Mozillas Page Info tab confirms this). Still, wget claims it is text/html...hm...strange...now what?

It doesn't matter whether I choose 'inline' or 'attachment', browser doesn't seem to care...but at least I found out why wget -S got me text/html instead of image/bmp. I had some session variables that messed things up, but I hacked it a bit and now wget -S is giving me the following headers:

Hi All,

I am a C++ guy, who plans to do a site about C++ Idioms. I would like to make it into a community site with interactivity. I have concluded that PHP would be the right way to go. However I am "lazy". I would like first to be able to start doing the site using some sort of visual environment where I can concentrate mostly on the site and on the possible minimum on PHP itself.

What I am thinking of is a well searchable knowledge base with articles, which has a structure (let's say some standard sections). I plan to make it possible to comment on the different articles/its sections just like it can be done on the php.net site for the documentation.

For that kind of site I am looking for a sort of visual design environment, preferably free (since it is non-profit) and preferably something for which I do not need my own server.

If you have any hints how should I start, what should I use, please let me know!

Ps: I am not looking for a way of not knowing PHP and use it: but I am looking for a way to create a site ASAP, since I believe that what I plan to do serves a need.

Ok, this is going to be laughable, but here goes. I am looking at code too much to get this one:

Have 2 text fields on a database called "hours" and "minutes". How can i get the current time (hour-minutes) in two digit format and apply it to the two variables? Everything i do only gets one digit when the minutes are between 00 and 10. I know its going to be stupid but anyway, could use your help, i cant see anything straight in this code anymore. :-P Sorry and thanks.

use the date() function, in this case date("i") and date("h") or date("H")

Hi all,

is there a way to execute a custom function as soon as an error happens in PHP? I looked at the set_error_handler function, but it doesn't seem to trap all the errors. What I want to achieve is to execute a function that mails me the error everytime an error happens.

Cheers,

Pieter

My site has a custom error handler (implemented via set_error_handler) which sends a nicely formatted email including all of the error details, a variable dump, the contents of the output buffer before the error occured, and the contents of a call to debug_backtrace, in addition to logging the error to a file. We've used it in some form or another for nearly a year now and it's been very helpful.

set_error_handler effectively traps every error you're likely to encounter with the exception of parse errors. And if you have a script with a parse error, you'll know it pretty quickly and likely won't need to be emailed, which means that for all intents and purposes, set_error_handler traps all errors.

Is there a specific problem you're having with set_error_handler, or a specific error that you were hoping your custom function would catch that is isn't?

Use the error_reporting function to define which errors you would like PHP to report to the error handler. If you want everything to be mailed to you, including warnings, use the E_ALL setting, though you may get a lot more "warnings" than you expect this way:

error_reporting(E_ALL);

function ErrorHandler($_ErrorNumber_, $_ErrorString_, $_ErrorFile_, $_ErrorLine_) { mail(...); }

set_error_handler("ErrorHandler");

I did a complex class that works with XML parsing and complex structured where I used references extensivly and now I'm surprised with:

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of array_push(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. However, future versions may not support this any longer.

I can't modify the php.ini since I'm in a shared but the problem is deeper. Why was it deprecated ? what replaced it ? is there any work arround ? My 200 lines of code without references could take much, much longer and be much, much more messy. Any ideas ?

I am sure array_push accepts the array as a reference so there is no need to use the & operator in the call. At least thats how it works in a simple class.....

No, I mean, what you're pushing inside the array is a reference: array_push($anArrayOfReferences, &$thisIsAVariable); that doesn't work, but I replaced by $anArrayOfReferences[count($anArrayOfReferences)] = &$thisIsAVariable; Thanks :) - -- Pupeno: pupenopupeno.com http://www.pupeno.com - --- Help the hungry children of Argentina, please go to (and make it your homepage): http://www.porloschicos.com/servlet/PorLosChicos?comando=donar -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux)

The errors aren't actually generadted inside the PHP but the problem im having makes no sense to me. The pages validate.php feed out: Please veify below that all your details are correct. If there are any errors, they will be lsited first. Error 1: Primary e-mail address was left blank. Error 2: Please specify whether or not your license has ever been revoked. Fatal Error: You did not agree to the terms listed. Errors were found in your submission. Please use your bowsers back button to go back and fix them. There were 4 errors found.

The problem lies within the fact that these errors are not actually being triggered. The errors are told to trigger if the field is left blank. The problem is are the field are not left blank. The form that feeds to the file is at http://www.skyfor.planetmodz.com/shsapp.html and the PHP script is http://www.skyfor.planetmodz.com/validate.php .. The text of both are too long to post in here. I checked myself to make sure the form fields line up. Could someone please try to see if they can figure out my error?

Hello friends,

I have made the following table of data and a button on every row to view the details. The code is working fine and the table is displayed with the buttons.

The problem I have is that the $SelectedItemNumber posted to the next page remains the same number no matter which row button I click. I have my relevant code below. Please help me. I know I am making a mistake somewhere but I cannot figure out where.

G'day All Just a quick question This is really a html more than a php question.

Is it possible to have two buttons and have different actions for each button in the same form?

Thanks CJ
