How many search engines do you know of that will parse and follow the
JavaScript location.href redirection suggested earlier?

This will (or should...) always work regardless of JS settings. Being a
HTTP equivalent this also means you can transmit it as MIME header as well:
header('Refresh: 5;URL="http://www.microsoft.com"');

I run PHP via a simple-minded webserver which sets up some environment
variables and then calls my php scripts (which begin with a
"#!/usr/local/bin/php" line). My scripts must handle all the headers,
including the HTTP status header. My standard included file contains
"header($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] . ' 200 OK');", and other files may
emit a similar header with a different status code for redirection and
so forth.
Unfortunately, after upgrading to 4.3.2 I encountered two problems.
First, PHP was "helpfully" refusing to emit status headers for which the
status code was 200 even when explicity instructed to by the above
header() call. Second, while my scripts would run correctly at the
command line, when run via a web server I was getting a 404 status and
the error message "No input file specified."
I have created a patch to work around the above problems; it is a hack,
but restores my desired functionality if I also set "cgi.rfc2616_headers
= 1" in php.ini. PHP developers, if you're out there, please consider
backing out rev 1.195 of php4/sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c or adding a
configuration directive to disable its behaviour. I'm not sure what the
correct solution for the "No input file specified" problem is; I'll try
to look into it more if I have some time next week, but this was my
first peek at PHP's source.

Hello List,
The issue appears to be that no rows are being found with mysql_num_rows using the SQL LIMIT offset. There should be rows found. Further, all processing just halts, and no query is shown as per the code here:
// RUN THE QUERY TO RETRIEVE EACH FOUND RECORD
$queryResultHandle = mysql_query($concatquery, $link_identifier) or die ( mysql_error());
// make sure that we recieved some data from our query
$rows = mysql_num_rows ($queryResultHandle);
if ( $rows > 0 ) { // <<<<<<<< THIS IS WHERE THE SCRIPT FAILS
while ($data = mysql_fetch_array ($queryResultHandle)) {
/* /////////////////////////////////////////////////
// COMMON VARIABLE ASSIGNMENT BLOCK - start
$yflastupdate = $data["lastupdate"]; // and other fields too ...
// COMMON VARIABLE ASSIGNMENT BLOCK - end
//////////////////////////////////////////////////// */
include("showOneRecord.php"); // display the row values in a template
} // while
// mysql_free_result ($queryResultHandle);
}else{
echo"<br>Process anomaly. Please try again.<br>";
echo $query;
exit;
}
The result is intermittent failure with the message "Process anomaly. Please try again." when the first or subsequent "next page" button is clicked. No query shown with the failure, and a query should be shown.
CONFIGURATION
This issue is experienced intermittently on the developer production site and "always" on the customer localhost and production sites. The customer is using "I just recently installed PHP and mySQL so they are pretty close to the latest versions. I think it's PHP 4.3.1 and mySQL 4.0.13. I get the same error on both the first time I click the "More Results" button. My browser is IE 6.0.2800 SP1."
What's the problem?

$_POST variables are still subject to poisoning; in your case, SQL
injection. The error you're getting, however, is because you have not
enclosed your quoted variable references with braces. For example:
<?php
echo "{$_POST['foo']}";
?>
You should be passing each of those variables through
mysql_escape_string() before using them in a query.

How is variable poisoning possible when using $_POST ?? I always felt
that the php compiler should check to see if the variable was part of
the POST Global array. At least this is is what I thought about the
$_POST global array.
Thanks in advance

It will do so only if magic_quotes_gpc is on. I tend not to rely on
that, especially when we have mysql_escape_string() easily available.

Never mind translation, "season" in English has more than one meaning.

I think that was his point. And the two meanings correspond to two different words in Spanish.
Most translation programs attempt to determine the intended meaning of such a word from its context. But it's an imperfect science.

What does "doesn't work" mean? Does it blow up your computer? Or does it give
an error message or what?

If chmod() fails I'm pretty sure it spits out an error, so if you've already
cranked up error reporting and are 100% positive there's no error being
reported then have a look at your umask() setting.

What are the permissions of the script producing the file? Does it have

First, if you just need to write to it, don't chmod it to 777 (you're
giving rwx across the board doing that). Who needs to write to the
file? The webserver only? Then set the permissions to 600, assuming
that the user which the webserver is running as owns the file (to keep
things as secure as possible, it's best not to give out more permission
than is actually needed).
Next, if you're dealing with a stock install of Apache, it's probably
running as 'nobody', which can give you fits. I usually create a user
for Apache (user 'apache'), and set it's home to /sbin/nologin so no-one
can access the machine with that account (no password). If you go this
route, you'll have to edit your httpd.conf file to make apache run as
the new user, and restart apache.
This is of course assuming you're running php with apache on a *nix
system. :)

Sorry should have made that clear. Apache's error log does not show any
reference to PHP or Zend, nor does /var/log/messages. Is there another
place I should look?
From php.ini:
[Zend]
zend_optimizer.optimization_level=15
zend_extension=/usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendOptimizer.so
/usr/local/Zend/lib# ls
ZendOptimizer.so
/usr/local/bin# php -version

Running the CLI on a phpinfo() call also does not show Optimizer. Also
phpinfo() says "Debug Build => no" so that's not it.

This is not exactly a bug report, because i am not sure where problem
is.
I am using PHP4.3.1 on Win2000/IIS.
I am setting a custom error handler through:
set_error_handler(array(&$objError, 'handleError')); where $objError
is an instance of an error handling class.
Then, i trigger a user error in the following way: trigger_error("test
error", E_USER_ERROR);
The problem is that sometime the custom error handler is invoked and
sometimes it is NOT. The times when it is not invoked i get the
following error: Fatal error: test error in C:\********.php on line
104
Does this mean that there is a problem in my Error Handler class or is
that a PHP issue with using a Custom Error Handler class?

To get the superglobal array ($_GET or $_POST), I try
to build these strings '_'.$method. I'm sure this part
works, PHP builds the string _GET or _POST according
to the $method parameter.
I use ${'_'.$method} to get the contents of the
superglobal. But this piece of code doesn't work.
--------------------------
Well, it won't, because there's a prominent warning on the manual page (http://www.php.net/language.variables.variable) that says:
"Please note that variable variables cannot be used with PHP's
Superglobal arrays. This means you cannot do things like ${$_GET}."
Cheers!
attached mail follows:
Thanks for the answer Mike.
Thanks for the explanation, but I think this is a
different case, isn't? I'm not trying to do this
${$_POST}, I'm trying to make this string $_POST.
And I have another question. Why does this code work?
<?php
echo '<pre>';
print_r($_POST);
echo '</pre><br><br>';
$method = 'POST';
$data = ${'_'.$method};
echo '<pre>';
print_r($data);
echo '</pre><br><br>';
?>
It does what I want it to do. I use it as the action
of the same form I submitted before and it does print
the superglobal array twice. The difference between
this code and the one that doesn't work is that the
latter is a class method.
What do you think? Thanks again.

Hi all,
I'm new to the list and to PHP. I haven't bought a book as of yet but I've
found a number of resources that are getting me through the basics.
I am collecting data from a form. I've having no problems collecting the
data and printing it out. But...
I have a form with check boxes with 4 options. See below.
************************************************************************
<input type=checkbox value=Investment name=investment>
<input type=checkbox value=Vacation Home name=vacation>
<input type=checkbox value=Retirement Home name=retirement>
<input type=checkbox value=Primary Home name=primary>
************************************************************************
This form data is being sent off to a php page to get the values printed
out. See below:
****************************************************************************
**********************
print "Which best describes your reason for wanting to purchase land?<br>";
print "$investment<br> $investment2<br> $investment3<br> $investment4<br>";
****************************************************************************
**********************
The problem is if a check box is not checked a blank space gets printed out
which I don't want. Can someone show me how to use an if then statement
with the following stucture:
***********************************************************************
if $investment <not eqaul to a blank> then print $investment
***********************************************************************
I would use this structure for each of the variables in the checkboxes
above. I'm sure this could be done with arrays in some form or another but
since I'm new at this I would just as soon keep it simple for now and learn
more sophisticated techniques later.

Oh, sorry, I missunderstood you... You want $myoutput to be the programs
input, not the output of the program... Hmm... Look into popen(), fputs()
and fclose()...

If $myoutput is "foo", it will attempt to get input from a file named
"foo". Use "command | $myoutput" instead.

YYYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSS!
Finally - It works!!
I used the following:
$fp = popen("$mycommand", "w+");
fwrite($fp, $myoutput);
Thank you for your assistance. I've been looking at this for 2 days and
nothing was coming to mind!
Again thank you!

Just wanted to let everyone else know so they don't waste days trying to
figure it out.
When using fread() on just about anything except for a file, it only
reads one packet at a time.
This means you must fread within a loop to read the bytes you need.
You can no longer pass "$length bytes to be read".
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=24033 for details, which was classified
as Bogus (Wez states this is the expected behavior of PHP, he fails to
recognize that it is not the expected behavior of the developers that
have been using PHP for years)
The little Note: in the documentation was NOT enough of a notice for
such a large change in functionality.
Code like this:
$fp = fopen('http://finance.yahoo.com/quote.php?q=MSFT', 'r');
$data = fread($fp, 100000);
will no longer work, now you must:
$fp = fopen('http://finance.yahoo.com/quote.php?q=MSFT', 'r');
do {
$_data = fread($fp, 8192);
if (strlen($_data) == 0) break;
$data .= $_data;
}
or some other similar looping of your choice.
Hope this helps someone else from wasting days trying to figure out why
their code no longer works.

I read the document 4 times. I understand how it works and now Im excited
about applying this to my application, however Im running into a problem.
Im recieving an error on my page.
I have this in my form.
<input name ="fname" type="text" value=" <?php $HTTP_POST_VARS['fname']; ?>"
/>
and when running, I recieve
Notice: Undefined index: fname
I also used the example from here
http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/form-pro-php4.php and I recieved the same
message.
Any Ideas, to help me break through these barriers?
Thanks so much

I think this may be because you did not include echo in:

so try this:
