Hi I am trying to install php with PHP 4.3.0 installer on windows98. I have
the Xitami server. When I try to run a php-file in the webbpages folder I
get the following meaasge
"Security Alert! The PHP CGI cannot be accessed directly.
This PHP CGI binary was compiled with force-cgi-redirect enabled. This means
that a page will only be served up if the REDIRECT_STATUS CGI variable is
set, e.g. via an Apache Action directive."
Does anyone know how I can get it to work?
Thanks for any help!
Best regards

Uncomment the last line shown here from php.ini and set it to zero.
; cgi.force_redirect is necessary to provide security running PHP as a

hi guys how is ti possible to do a set_error_handler within a class so it

You'd set it just like you would anywhere else in your code.
If you want the callback function to be a method in your class, then you
pass an array to set_error_handler(). Details are in the manual on the
format of the array. It'll be the same as any other callback function
that you can send a classes method to.

Hi! [Hey, does that make me a guru now? ;-]

% I need your help regarding converting HTML Table structure to DB schema

While I realize that this is a php list, I nonetheless recommend perl. I
had a quick look around at search.cpan.org for "html table parse" and
found lots of results, the first two of which look like exactly what you
need. If this is a one-shot conversion for your 500 files, I'd go that
route since it's already written.

What about looking for something like that written in C that would convert your HTML into XML and then use PEAR's XMLParser to get it into a PHP structure?

Just what exactly is the problem? AFAICS its use is similar to the plain ftp_connect() -- and there are plenty of examples on how to use that.

hi
can the string source in copy () looks like that: "c:\pic.jpg". If not than how should it look like.
I'm not sure becouse script gives me "Unable to open c:\pic.jpg for reading: No such file or directory" but the file is there.
and when i'm using $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'] it returns me: 'Unable to open 'none' for reading: No such file or directory'.
attached mail follows:
you need to escape the windows backslash:
$file = "c:\pic.jpg";
should be
$file = "c:\\pic.jpg";
or
$file = "c:/pic.jpg";
which will work the same

attached mail follows:
pass it one value at the time:
session_register("valid_user"); session_register("firstname"); session_register("lastname");
Another recommended method is to use superglobal variable $_SESSION. You can then simply do:
$_SESSION['valid_user'] = $login; $_SESSION['firstname'] = $first_name; $_SESSION['lastname'] = $last_name;
and the three variables will be available on the next pages.
remember to start sessions before hand:
session_start();

It's personal preference... whatever you understand.
I'd recommend just using $_SESSION and keep register_globals OFF, but that's me.

I know it's possible, but I just can't get it working. In an old file I have a straight php coding doc where it's used and am now trying to mimic the resulting output.
I'm trying to get a result from a query in a specific color when it fits the bill ( if ($teamcaptain == $deelnemer) //if yes, we'll make the result green echo "<td class="achtergrondbottom">"; etc
(((((SEE BELOW))))))
when the person ($deelnemer) also fits the $teamcaptain I want this one to be listed in different format, I dont care if it's only color or if it's a css. Hope there's someone able to help me here, thanks,

part of php code:

I'm new to PHP but I had a similar problem. I was comparing information in a flat text file with a variable in my php code. They never matched according to the php. I echo'd both values to the screen and they matched. So then I echo'd them to the screen with three 'a' in front and three 'a' in back of the values. Much to my suspicion there was a blank space behind the value from the text file. So, I used rtrim to get rid of the blank space. Looks something like this:
$contents[1] = rtrim($contents[1]);
if ($idname = = $contents[0]) { echo "Works Thus Far!"; exit; }
Hope this is helpful! ! ! Roger

If there is really need for such a page, my first guess was, as i thought about it, to enter the content, which is responsible for the upload in a invisible frame.
For an invisible Frame you just have to make a frameset, where you only can see one part of the frame <frameset rows="*,1" or some like that, and on the other hand you are just making your transition page. after your upload is finished you just have to run a javascript parent.location.href="" command.
Dont know if it works but just give it a try.
mh, dont know if it really works, have no time yet, would be nice to know :))

Hey everybody,
I'm new the list and to PHP, so I thought I'd launch right in with a question.
I have a file which contains the following syntax:
; Events listings [event] month = january day = 23 year = 2003 venue = some club description = this is an event
[event] month = january day = 12 year = 2003 venue = another club description = this is another event
Each one of these headers sections represents the start of a new event. So, my code does the following:
$EVENTS = parse_ini_file('./data/events', TRUE); while($key = key($EVENTS)) { $$key = current($EVENTS); //variable variables next($EVENTS); }
The problem is that when I try to print the values for $venue, $day, etc, I only get the values for the last section encountered. I need a way to get the values of all the events - do my section heads need to be unique, or can I continue to use the same format in my ini file?
Thanks in advance!
-Erich-
attached mail follows:
there is a bunch of examples to parse the ini files in PHP. You can even do one on your own:
1. loop every line 2. if format is [**] then this is the key 3. everything till the empty line is a key = value pair
P.S: please, when replying click on "new email" and cut&paste the email address. If you click "reply-to" and change the "to" and "body" to your own so it looks like a new post, some of us still get it as a thread of the previous one.

interesting function, i had not seen it yet.
You could have a look at the alternative function mentioned by the users 'seb' and 'Tom' in the online manual http://nl.php.net/manual/nl/function.parse-ini-file.php, at least you can tweak that so the values get added to arrays.
Or you could see whether this will work: [event] month[]=januari
[event] month[]=februari
I doubt whether it would work, the idea is that in this case $month[0] would be januari and $month[1] februari.
>$EVENTS = parse_ini_file('./data/events', TRUE); >while($key = key($EVENTS)) >{ > $$key = current($EVENTS); //variable variables > next($EVENTS); >}
if you ask me, i would do it like this:
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($_POST)) { { $$key = $val; }

Yes, each section has to be unique, otherwise you're just overwriting the values each time it's read.
If you want to do it this way, I'd write your own function to read the file and not use parse_ini_file().

Your bug is this:
inconsistency of types.
You split a formatted string into smaller strings and compare the integers to it. In order to do this correctly, you will need to take your integers and convert them into the strings, format of which you already know and used for deformatting the original string. Then compare.
That is the only way to be safe, other ways are "magic" because PHP debugged them for you. It's really all about the programming logic. few of you who are fluent with C or Java would dump into this.

PHP can easily do all that, probably even easier that with Perl. Perl is somewhat too painful to write scripts in. For my needs, i whether use PHP or Ruby for stand-alone apps. Ruby is less flexible than PHP but its "pure" OOP and I often need to resort to it.

You answered yourself again - if you are more comfortable with PHP then why hassle with painful Perl?

PHP natively works quite well with mySQL, thus its another reason to use it.

Including new classes within the existing classes is not such a bad idea as it ensures you to have only the necessary classes called.

yes, you can serialize/unserialize classes into the sessions. This makes it a little more complicated, but can be helpful sometimes.

You know what I have once done? I created a file with functions that return you the object pointers. It would create (declare) the class whenever it was not declared before or just return the pointer from a global variable if it was declared before. That way, you only load a few functions, and whenever you need a class you assign a variable to the function's return to have the class. This limits you script to only classes you use and no includes within the script itself. A kind of silly method, but can be easy to work with.
Also, check out the new Zend 2 engine, it has tons of improvements with classes for PHP5. Currently the code is in CVS (checkout php5 module). Changes are listed here:

First off, I would make sure to take advantage of inheritence as much as possible. I have heirarchies up to 4 deep for some of my classes depending on how much specialization I need while at the same time maintaining only one set of code for functionality common to all subclasses.
As for using classes within classes, I don't include the classes within a class definition nor within a method def. I include the class def in the class file but outside the actual class {} statement.
When I instantiate the class, if I will need the object ref to pass to other classes or to other methods within the calling class, I assign the initial object instantiation to a class variable. That way any class methods can have ready access to that class via the ojbect reference stored in the class variable.
Only when I know for sure that the use of a class will be for one purpose do I include and instantiate within a method.
as always, YMMV depending on the structure of your project.
NOTE: There is a set of new PHP functions that allow a sort of dynamic multiple inheritence. You can look here for info:

On the receiving side, if we're talking POST, then you HAVE to be aware of the change in handling them since PHP 4.10, before this version you could just try to read the POST variable directly, e.g. Name went to $Name, or better $HTTP_POST_VARS['Name']. But since then it is recommended to read it through $_POST['Name']. The old way only works if you set register_globals on in the php.ini file, if i remember well.
Unfortunately for you i only have a Dutch link to explain this better.

Anything that the receiving Web server outputs is sent back to you just as it would be a Web browser. So, you can read this data just as if from a file (which is why fsockopen is so convenient). Thus, just echo whatever you want to send back.
You make a statement that is very conflicting:

So, you want to send data "back through the open socket", but you do not want read this data from the socket. I think you have a misunderstanding here somewhere that will make things difficult for you. What fgets() gives you *is* the data sent from the remote server.
If you want to pass data back in a manageable way, you will probably want to output XML, because that is easier and more reliable to parse than HTML.

attached mail follows:
Okay, some clarification. I do indeed want to read what I get back from the socket. Using fgets($fp, 1024) on the sending side (where the socket is opened and the data sent) and return = $variable on the other end (oh yes, the variable has a value as of the return), all I ever get back is 'HTTP 1.1' exactly, or nothing at all in the return value. Can you fill me in on the syntax here? How would you write the fgets statement and how would you define and populate the return value on the other end?

Maybe this example will help. This searches PHP's site for curl, outputting the HTTP content to the screen. When you are making a socket connection like this, you get the whole HTTP response, not just the content. This example uses an explode() to separate headers from content, which isn't very safe (if the content contains \r\n somewhere, it screws up), but it will probably work for you:
<base href="http://www.php.net/">
<? $content = php_post("www.php.net", "/search.php", "lang=en_US&pattern=curl&show=manual"); echo $content;
function php_post($host, $path, $data) { $http_response="";
$fp=fsockopen($host, 80); fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Host: $host\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Content-Length: " . strlen($data)."\r\n"); fputs($fp, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n"); fputs($fp, "$data"); while(!feof($fp)) { $http_response.=fgets($fp, 128); } fclose($fp);
list($http_headers, $http_content) = explode("\r\n\r\n", $http_response);
# This only returns the content - modify if you want to also return the headers return $http_content; } ?>

You could match all of the strings and then use one of the other string functions to find the position.

using any of the string functions on the output would ofcourse cause a performance drawback (do you agree with me?), i had used a combination of string functions to do instead of regexps, which one will be faster as you think ?

It depends on exactly what your doing, how much text you have, and why you need to match the position as well as the text.

Hi,
i made some basic bench and see that it really depends...
try to make some basic search like ^[0-9]{1,4}$ how can u do this ? with substr, strlen, strstr and ifthenelse ? i found really faster to use preg_match(), which is really faster than if (ereg())...

Good day,
This is a bit off-topic for the list, but, I'm not sure where else I can send this.
The "search" function on php.net appears to be broken. One can search through the function list, but any query via "whole site" or "online documentation" returns no results.
I tried to send a message to webmasterphp.net, the address posted on the
site for this sort of thing. However, my message eventually bounces back to
me, with the php.net qmail deamon stating that it can not confirm that my
address was valid. I presume that there is some sort of system that replies
to me to confirm that my return address is valid, but this also appears to
be broken, as no such e-mail is ever received.
If anyone can pass this along, or even suggest where this could be sent, that would be great. This problem has been present for a couple of weeks now, at least.

Here's just one of many good reasons ...
// obviously this is some busted garbage $name.Array["first"]="Chris"; $name.Array["last"]="Wesley"; $name=$name.Array["first"]." ".$name.Array["last"];

That assumes register_globals is ON, though, which isn't recommended. If you read the questions, the poster talks about using the value such as $_POST['name.Array'], which is valid. Since it's encouraged to have register globals OFF, I think they should do aways with this period to underscore thing, also. It will only jack up people's code that rely on register_globals and they should be changing it anyhow.

There aren't two different lexigraphical parsers if you turn register_globals on or off. So, PHP either allows ALL variables to have a "." in their name, or disallow it altogether. So, moving outside of the narrow case of POST variable names is what I did *after thoroughly reading and thinking about the question*. (Somebody missed the Lex & Yacc hint.)

As long as it's possible to turn register_globals on, this will have to be a problem. I'd vote for tearing this bandaid off, getting rid of register_globals altogether, and undo all the idiosyncrasies it causes, but that's just me (and others who think similarly).

I'm not familar with the core code of PHP at all, but what would happend if this "feature" was just disabled? For everyone with rg OFF, it wouldn't affect them, right? If rg is ON and you never use a period in a variable name, then it shouldn't affect you either, right? What is someone actually did, though? Would it cause PHP to shit itself or just make a weird variable name? My point was that who cares what it does, because it's only going to affect people with rg ON, anyhow, that try using a period, right?

I have looked into some classes as well and all use the crypt() function. The reason for this not working is probably the algorithm used because the passwords within a .htpasswd created with apache looks a hell lot different using something like
$apr1$rB2.....$8iUWArWEsTQ2553kjk22NS1 (not a real password by the way)
anyone having experience with that? Something up because I use windows?

I know its stupid but i´ve been writing a site for a register_globals = on enviroment now i need to convert all the code to an off setting
the page is built by sending a whole lot off vars to diferent pages. as you can see below the hyperlink sends the id var to the same page and then echos the code. can anyone help humpty dumpty?
<font size="2"><a href="left.php?id=1" target="_self">Finansiering</a><BR> <? If($id==1){ echo "<a href=info/leas.htm target=\"mainFrame\"><font color=\"#00CCCC\">Leasing</font></a><BR> <a href=info/avb.htm target=\"mainFrame\"><font color=\"#00CCCC\">Räntefri avbet.</font></a><BR> <a href=info/stul.htm target=\"mainFrame\"><font color=\"#00CCCC\">Studentlån</font></a><BR>"; }; ?>

I would try something like this instead:
$params = escapeshellarg($params); $output = system(c:\path\to\htpasswd $params); //check for output errors or what not
There very well could be a better solution (especially since I have not tried the above code...).
I remember seeing somewhere that the crypt algorithms are different for Apache and PHP on Win32.

Cleanliness is next to impossible.

Hi I have a rather annoying problem regarding forms. I have built an app that allows the users to fill in a rather large form (much like a claim form) and then have the data pumped into a mysql db. The problem is: the users want to be able to "save" their forms on their systems as a) backup/proof that they have filled it in and b) for their records for future use and c) the hope is that it would also allow for a reliable method to complete the form off-line and then submit it when online again.
So, I'm not sure what the best way is to tackle this situation. My gutt says it would need some kind of client stand alone app, but I wouldn't want to go there unless I am proven beyond reasonable doubt that it is the only way.
The users are mostly in computer limbo, and if they had their way, they would want to use "Word or Excel" to complete the forms, save it to their hard drive and "click to send it away"...
Help!, Please?!

Hi Bryan
Thanks for the suggestions.
Can you elaborate on the pdf option? Wouldn't that mean the users would
need a copy of adobe acrobat writer?

Saving the form would be useless because how would you ever know if they really submitted it or not?
It seems like the easiest thing to do would be to show them a "confirmation" page that says "your claim has been accepted" and here is the data you submitted. "Save or print this page for your records" like you see on many other systems.
Would that work?
I guess it wouldn't do anything for option C above, but that option is always present unless you're using some kind of timeout feature?

Well, this sounds like a bad idea in general, but if you have no choice in the matter, I suppose cookies can fulfill the need.
Anything you implement like this is going to lessen the security of the data, because rather than the client sending it to you once, you are going to expose it over the Internet several times. If this risk is acceptable for whatever reason, then cookies are probably no less secure for this data than anything else.
Normally, I would highly recommend *not* storing client data on cookies, because that opens you up to several types of attacks, but you can accomplish what you want to do with this method. Only "punish" those who want this feature by setting these cookies only for those who choose to save this data locally. You could help the situation by encrypting the data in your cookies, so that only presentation attacks are a concern, but your users wouldn't be able to easily look at their data as verification of anything.
My recommendation is to leverage your position as the technical expert to advise a more proper solution, one that you agree to, not them. They should not be consulted regarding application design unless they have experience with it. Rather, they should be describing their needs and let you (or the technical lead / project manager) do the technical design.
Good luck to you.
