Hi,

    It does support any HTTP information, and since
HTTP_REFERER is part of the HTTP spec. it is supported.
    You can find it in the $_SERVER variable.
    FYI: The referer is not a reliable information.

Cheers,

It depends on what exactly you are trying to accomplish. Are you trying
to restrict access to your email program based on the HTTP_REFERER which
may be real or may be forged?

attached mail follows:

no, im making a "send this page to a friend program"
when the users click the button a small pop-up window will come out and the
http_referer will work and catch the previous page.

Since it's a button, you could always send the SCRIPT_FILENAME to the
pop-up window via a GET or POST method.

I suppose you can achieve this using javascript's
window.opener.location.href reference.

attached mail follows:

I use this expression to remove oneline comments:
iereg_replace("//([^\n]*)\n",'',$code);

I need to make a check if this expression is inside a string. If it is, its
not a comment.

I think it has something to do with context..

Anyone who could help me?

thanx

Does your explorer ask you if you want to resend the information? It
does. You post your form once again. If you don't want this to happen,
use header("Location: http://yourserver/your_form_page.php"); redirect.

Are you using the bundled MySQL libraries under Unix/Linux? What
version of PHP are you running with what operating system? If MySQL
compiled as a module that must be loaded?

Hi Dave,

Yes php can, but what application will you connect to?
On my old work we develop php and c programs to do it. Although the main
client that connects is on C/Unix but when the people wanted to send
messages we do it on php then web to c then c program to smsc server.

Hi,
Goto http://kannel.org and download their sources. They have some sample
PHP scripts to send sms. Obviously you will need a GSM modem or access
to an SMSC to make full use of it.

all the best.

attached mail follows:

PHP is server side, it has nothing to do with client side, aside from
server up some information. You can, and should, validate the input
using PHP after it is submitted.
For client side validation you would need to use javascript. You can do
what you are trying to do in javascript, but it will get very
complicated since you need to use the onkeypress to capture and process
each key stroke to make sure the / remain.
I think using PHP to validate after submission would be a lot easier
and much more flexible. If you do it right, the user could put in
something like +3 to enter a date three days from todays date.

I'm not sure if this will help, you, but I have a simple JavaScript
application which may help. You would simply put your options in nested
<ul>s, then put this in the <head> of your page:
<script type="text/javascript"

Hi,

I'm using the function "file_get_contents()" to replicate the content of a
remote html page on my server.

But, the function file_get_contents() works even when the name of the file
is not specified. For example:

"http://www.php.net" rather that "http://php.net/index.php"

Does a method exist to know the name of the file received form web server?

I would like to write a program that automatically downloads the images
inserted into a html page.

For this reason, I need to determine the paths of the images in order to get
them from the web server.

In other words, my program should work as the "Save as" function (File menu)
of any Web browser.

Can anybody help me?

Best regards.

No way, it might be anything from apache's DirectoryIndex directive.

For the above examples the url is the string up to the last '/' char (as
long as the string after the '/' char has an extension ie a dot and three or
chars)

This is a bit more tricky, you could just grab the url with and without the
'/' char and compare the two strings (messy I know) and probably won't work
every time, but what does!

Why? Both the HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.0 (via XML 1.0) specifications explicitly allow both single and double quotes for attribute values.

OK, I've now seen the other followups requesting backup for this, so:

HTML 4.01: At http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2, the
spec says:

    "By default, SGML requires that all attribute values be
     delimited using either double quotation marks (ASCII
     decimal 34) or single quotation marks (ASCII decimal 39)."

XHTML 1.0 relies on the XML 1.0 spec for this, and the XML 1.0 spec, at
http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#NT-AttValue, defines an attribute
value thusly:

AttValue ::= '"' ([^<&"] | Reference)* '"'
| "'" ([^<&'] | Reference)* "'"

Hope this helps!

Cheers!

Yeah, I figured someone would ask that. :) I couldn't find anything
definitive on w3c.org; can someone back me up?

AFAIK, they are required in XML and XHTML. It's a good habit to get into

with regular HTML, also (although, yes, both will work in HTML).
[/snip]

The best form HTML attributes is within double quotes. This stems from
the parent language of all of the mark-up languages, SGML (standard
generalized mark-up language). XML and XHTML both more closely follow
the rules/recommendations of the parent language. HTML validation
engines genrally throw exceptions if attributes are not quoted. It has
always been considered good form.

Hi Ryan,

Sounds like register_globals is turned off on your server (this is generally
a Good Thing). Rather than having all your form fields converted directly
into variables - which your book is assuming, as it's how PHP used to do
it - you'll need to access them via the $_POST array.

Try changing this line:

> echo $tireqty." tires<br>";

To this:

echo $_POST["tireqty"]. " tires<br>";

Search the manual or the list archives for "register_globals" and you'll get
loads of info about this.

That'll certainly fix the problem, but it kind of defeats the point of using
$_POST :-)

Ideally you'd clean the data at this point to make sure no-one's trying to
submit anything nasty (Google on "SQL injection" for an idea of what can be
done).

Seeing as these are quantities, checking them via PHP's is_numeric()
function would probably be a good idea, and making sure they're inside
sensible ranges (between 0 and 50, say) might be worthwhile as well.

Another question, does using PDF require the use of some configuration

for some classes which provide wrapper functions around the raw pdflib
functions -- they'll make your life much easier

There are at least two projects which implements some pdf functions using only
PHP code (thus negating the need to install pdflib).

Hi all,
I have a download for that collects data from a user (name, e-mail etc)
then I pass that info to a database and give them the file.
In the form, I pass two hidden variables, header and details_captured.
So when I post the form to $PHP_SELF, it detects this and then activates
the header code, and hopefully gives the file to the user.
The $bu variable and others are from the previous form too.

So, it works great on my desktop here at work, but I just got a few mails
from random users, who complained that they saw an error screen after
trying to download pdf's.
Dunno if this is a PDF problem, or if my script is bad?

So, here is my code... (that site at the very top of my page.)
The headers after the else statement are simply to avoid page caching, so
we can ignore them in this example.....
So, why does this work for me and many others, but not all?

============================

if (($header == 'collect') && ($details_captured == "yes")) {
        session_start();
        $path = "/home/site/download/$bu/$file";
    header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file");
    header("Content-Length: " . filesize($path));
    header("Content-Type: " . filetype($path));
    readfile("$path");
} else {
        session_start();
        Header("Cache-control: private, no-cache");
        Header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); # Past date
        Header("Pragma: no-cache");
}

Warren -

Well, your ideas are working like a champ *AND* I am getting a little
better idea of how Applets work - "little" mind you! However, another
challenge has emerged: why does it work in IE and not in Netscape 7.1?

The original test script contained this long assignment to the DATA
parameter in some sort of "crazy text". At that time, I did not
understand the meaning of "param" nor did I think about BASE64
encoding. And that is why in IE, the Editor had text in the initial
screen - it was assigned encoded text.

So, now the script works with IE but in the Netscape browser the encoded
text is not recognized. Do you have any ideas as to why that may be?
My need for a Java based HTML Editor is so folks at my client's business
who have Macs, PCs and Linux based computers can edit HTML based text in
a PHP app.

I'm pretty sure ActiveX controls don't run on anything besides MS
Windows Lockinware (TM). There are a number of other things that
netscape does not fully support (try loading a page with an iframe tag
in Netscape). You probably ran into another such problem.

mozzilla 1.4. and netscape 7.1 support iframe. Hey the applet looks
pretty neat is it open source?

Lean and mean secure FTP applet in pure java.
Complete with Graphical User Inteface Just 150 kb in size.

I'm not sure about the relationship between an applet and an ActiveX control, and most of my development is for IE browsers (they have 90% of the market I hear), so I'm not sure I can help much here. If you can break down what works and what doesn't, it might help.

If the applet doesn't run correctly, I'd look for some Java release compatibility (maybe where activex comes into play). I think you can update the java release for the NS browser, but you'll have to get each user to do that.

If, on the other hand, the problem is with the JavaScript, you should be able to conditionally generate working JavaScript for each browser (see PHP get_browser(). You might also enquire about the specs for the editing tool, to see if it supports other methods of encoding the document.

Wish I could be of more help here, but I've about reached the end of my chain (knowledge) on this one. I guess it would be too much to ask, but if you have the Java source, most people can sort of read Java, even though they are not proficient with it, and that could tell you a lot.

I am implementing a site with an Iframe, and having no problems with recent releases of Netscape, older releases are a problem, even with IE.

I have another site that does WYSIWYG editing in IE and provides a TEXTAREA for those NS users who insist on using stone axes, and it presents one or the other by detecting the browser in php.

good luck,

I am surprised that an Open Source applet would rely on ActiveX. It
appears that there is something I am not doing correctly in setting the
DATA param for Netscape.

Please overlook my ignorance about browsers and applets as I try to get
a better understanding, but is BASE64 encoding/decoding a feature of IE
and not , possibly, of Netscape?

One of the reasons I need this applet working in non-IE browsers is that
my client has staff that use Macs and need to access the site from the
field...

Try running Netscape 7.1 on Linux and the iframe may be broken under
certain conditions.

As always, your mileage may vary, and they may have patched Netscape by
now.

attached mail follows:

Microsoft (being a monopoly) decided it did not want to follow Sun's
java standard and effectively froze their version of Java available in
IE Java 2 1.2 . (or something like that -- they're currently
finishing up Java 2 1.5). So if you wanted to use certain things with
microsoft you either needed to use ActiveX controls (Microsoft's answer
to Java) or Java 1.2 functionality (and there is some talk that
Microsoft will drop all support for Java in its next version of IE).

So, either (1 of the 3):

        a. You must install Sun's Java Plug In for all computers running your
program. (If it relies on java > 1.2).
        b. You must use ActiveX controls and forget about non MS Machines --
or code 2 versions for MS and non MS machines.
        c. The problem is that Base 64 refers to 64 bit machines and no 32 bit
architecture will support it. (Shouldn't be the case -- Java guarantees
that different types will be the same number of bytes).

So $a is now bytes, and $range is something like 123-456

This makes no sense. The range requested is bytes 123 through 456, and
you're
converting this to 123456. Why?
>>>>>>>ANS: when I left it on what it would send to the browser would be
=="header("Content-Range: 123--456/457");"==
(it would tack on an extra dash symbol (-) and the browser did not
understand it)

> $size2=$size-1;
> header("Content-Range: $range$size2/$size");
> $new_length=$size2-$range;

This will definitely not work, based on my comments above.
>>>>>>>ANS: it appears to work enough that FlashGet will try to
recover/resume and it completes, but, the byte count is always off by around
1 or so bytes and I cannot figure out why...

If someone sends this header:

Range: bytes=0-1023

and your resource is 2048 bytes in size, your response should include this
header:

Content-Range: bytes 0-1023/2048

Work on generating the correct string before you bother actually using them
as
headers and trying for the full solution.
>>>>>>>ANS: I have set it to log to a text file previously and it is always
1 byte different. I am at a total loss as to where it is happening, I will
attach the the log files that I have been pouring over as well the actual
script to you...

Hope that helps.
