Looks ok to me, except last I remmeber, ASP gave you a line number it

You get this error because you echo display messages and errors before
trying to do a header() redirect. You can't have any output before header().

Take a look at your form again, you're using POST.

But you must have register_globals still on because $id is set with the

Is there any enviroment variable that may help to solve this problem? I

Well, should have make one long string to the $res_str variable a lot

It turned out that the for() loop isn't the slow part when you mentioned
about substr(). I tried out the while() loop and it is pretty much the same
when the loop take over 5 minutes. So, it now seem to have to do with
substr() function. Yea, I'm not sure what hte best substitute of it would
be. In other branches off of this posting, someone said about using the
strpos(). I'm willing to give this a try but I have problem with this
because I have two "<!CDATA[[***]]>" tags in it and I want to use both, not
just first one.

Wow I didn't think you were going to post your whole program. :0
1. Are you sure the for() loop is the slow part?
2. As someone already suggested, calculating the sizeof() outside of the
loop should help a lot. Another enhancement is changing your for() to
while(). (This is a small enhancement but makes a bigger difference as
your iterations increase.)
REGULAR for() loop construct:
$iMax = 99;
for($iCnt = 0; $iCnt < $iMax; $iCnt++)
{
}
OPTIMIZED:
$iMax = 99;
$iCnt = -1;
while(++$iCnt < $iMax)
{
}
Like I said it's only slightly faster, but might make a difference
depending on your number of iterations.
3. I think what may be slowing you down is your substr() calls. Maybe
there is a substitute function that is faster? (I don't have any ideas
unfortunately.)
Let us know if you figure something out.
HTH,
Chris.

attached mail follows:
As a substitute for substr, you might want to give a regex a chance.. have
no clue if it's faster, but it might just be.
/^.{2}(.{0,8})/
would be your regex if you want to start at offset THREE and take out a MAX
EIGHT char string (remove the 0 and get ONLY EIGHT char strings). Not sure
if PHP sets $1, $2, .. vars, else give the optional third "Matches" param to
preg_match();

Use the offset parameter:
<?php
$haystack = 'To be or not to be.';
$needle = 'be';
$needlesize = strlen($needle);
$pos = 0;
while (($pos = strpos($haystack, $needle, $pos)) !== false)

I did it, but I can't see any relevant info on it.
(I'm total newbie)
Where exactly should I look on the phpinfo page if it's running as cgi or
mod?
Maybe i haven't put mmcache info to the right place in php.ini.
It looks like this:
;Windows extensions
.
.[snip]
.
;extension=php_snmp.dll
;extension=php_sockets.dll
;extension=php_sybase_ct.dll
;extension=php_xslt.dll

mmcache.filter=""
mmcache.shm_max="0"
mmcache.shm_ttl="0"
mmcache.shm_prune_period="0"
mmcache.shm_only="0"
mmcache.compress="1"
Maybe I should change "zend_extension_ts" to "extension?"
No. I tried it.

The column in the very first part that says: Server API
It will say something like IIS Version if its a module or CGI
gateway if its a cgi.

There is no real difference in common usage, print returns true always so you
can use it in weird situations otherwise echo is a tiny bit faster.
You can do stuff like this
if(isset($_GET['name'] && print('DEBUG: received name set to '.$_GET['name']."<br>\n")){
//normal processing here
}

You should always use echo. It'll make a significant performance
increase in your scripts as it's only four letters instead of five.

Look at the optional 3rd parameter to strpos().

"The optional offset parameter allows you to specify which character in
haystack to start searching. The position returned is still relative to
the the beginning of haystack."
So if you are trying to find subsequent occurrences of the string, you'd
need to make the offset be greater than the last character you checked, or
you're going to keep getting the first occurrence.

If you're just trying to pull one bit of data out of a file, you might
want to look into regex for this purpose. If you're actually trying to
write a parser, I think you might do well to read up on how other parsers
work (like, using a stack). Anyway, don't do that, use an existing XML
parser.. unless you are on a learning quest.. then, by all means!

The manual is perfectly clear -- the third parameter is the offset within the string of where to start searching, not an occurrence number or any other way of counting. And the return value of strpos() is also an offset within the string. So, assuming your CDATA segments are nested (which the above seems to imply), then:
> $XML_Start = strpos($res_str, "<![CDATA[") + 9;
> $HTML_Start = strpos($res_str,"<![CDATA[", $XML_Start) + 9;
> $HTML_End = strpos($res_str, "]]>", $HTML_Start);

If they're not nested, then the search order would need to be different (you need to look for substrings in the order in which they occur in the string as a whole) but the principle is exactly the same.
Cheers!

Yea, the manual is clear but honestly, don't know what the offset really
meant since there is no definition or explaination of how the offset work.
All I know the definition of the offset is 'To balance each other out'.
Like a weighting scale where one weight is more than other and I would need
to add a bit of a weight to the lightest part to offset the other. So, I
knew that is not what the manual meant so don't know how exactly does it
work since there's no explanation or example of it.
But now I understand when I saw your example, so I'll tweak the coding.
I'll also have to customize the codes to check to see if the HTML's CDATA is
returned or not as well as the XML's CDATA is returned or not. Oh boy!

I was only suggesting that rather than try to perfect your own parser,
you'd be better off spending that time getting comfortable with something
that already exists for this purpose. There is too much debugging,
testing, optimization and research required to build one that is adequate,
and many already exist that probably exceed any home-brew solution.
I have not done too much XML parsing in PHP yet, but you might look to
PEAR for help with this. I've briefly experimented with the various PEAR
XML packages, like XML_Tree and XML_Parser. Take a look:
http://pear.php.net/packages.php?catpid=22&catname=XML
If you're dealing with poorly formed XML then you've got another problem
if you're trying to actually parse it. To simply pull one or two values
out of the file, a regex still might be the quickest/dirtiest..
If you do want to move forward testing parsers and stuff, make yourself a
valid XML file to test with, so that is not the issue...worry about fixing
malformed XML later with the provider or through an intermediate filter..

Don't you mean
$data = date('F d, Y');
I don't see why you're calculating $day and then putting it in date().

Not unless you include the javascript variable in a subsequent GET or POST
request to the server - once your browser renders an HTTP response, PHP's
involvement is long finished.

Not unless you send a request to the server (reload the page, go to
another page, etc.). php runs server side, JavaScript runs client side.

Thanks for your help manu and david. I'm going to attempt converting
the html characters and see if that works, but something also makes me
think this might be a server configuration issue.
The reason I say this is that I've run into this error on my machine,
but when I try it on our academic web server it works fine, and when I
ran a test on my system administrator's machine it worked fine as well.
Now, some time ago I ran into a problem with the uploading of images on
my machine, in that during the upload process the image was somehow
being mangled and the uploaded copy was always a few K larger than the
original, and no longer a valid file. I ran the test on my system
administrator's machine and it was fine.
These two things make me think it's something in the way my server is
configured. I'm pretty new to Linux, so I have absolutely no idea what
it might be and will be posting to some Linux and Apache forums to see
if I can pinpoint it.
In the meantime I will try converting the characters before they're
displayed in the textarea for editing and before they're submitted to
the db.
Thanks again guys.

What is the simplest way to avoid duplicate order
entry on a form? Some people aren't patient enough to
wait for the SSL/credit card processing and will click
the submit button two, three, or more times causing
duplicate orders.
Is there a quick way to disable the submit button at
least in javascript? Better yet, something quick and
easy that could be done server-side without a lot of
programming like cookies, database flags, etc?
I've thought of a few things (like hidden variables
with an order ID or cookies/flags) but this really
should be a quick fix since it's not a big problem on
the site.
Thanks in advance for any tips or techniques!

The way I do is, on the result page, to create a variable (for example
$done) and I put to into the session. So if this variable already
exists, I don't re-execute the form treatment code.
Hope this helps

<form .... onsubmit="this.submitButton.disabled = true;">
If you have any javascript form checks, disable the button just before
returning true from the onsubmit handler.

Hi,
POBs is really good, but I have had some weird problems when encoding large
files, especially if you take out the line breaks in the options.
Another problem with POBS is that you can have your "config.php" file not
encoded with the rest of the files, since it changes your variables (eg
$email becomes something like $2d4g3a5sd) your $email variable is not
recognised in the rest of the program/s, which is quite a pain in the ass
explaining to a customer who just bought your software to enter the $email
variable in $2d4g3a5sd and their $blah variable in $234sdhk23 etc etc
I personally prefer CodeSecure from securecents.com at only 49$ but then,
i'm biased :-)

I like POB too but it's an obsfuscator. To fix your $email problem just do
a search for $2d4g3a5sd and change them all to $email.
An encoder would be Ioncube or Turck's mmcache but the server needs to be
installed with their software to run the encoded scripts. POB doesn't need
anything installed to run.

Hmm... That's quite a different thing and unless I read your original
post wrong I don't think this part was mentioned. But in any case a few
questions.
1. When you say "on my system in unencrypted form" do you indeed mean
you want data that can be encrypted and then unencrypted as opposed to a
hash like md5() that cannot be reversed? (I only ask this because a lot
times people use them synonymously when they should not.)
2. This isn't a question really but I spoke with my friend google (maybe
you two have met?) and he said this
"http://www.tonymarston.net/php-mysql/encryption.html".
hth,
Chris.

To be pedantic, the data *has* to exist on your system in an unencrypted form
albeit for as long as it takes for you to encrypt it and then remove the
unencrypted data.

Yes, two way, like PKI. Honestly, I'd like to be able to encrypt the stream
as it comes in and decrypt it on the way out. I'd rather not know or have
access to, at any time, what's being transfered...

Hello,
I have an array like that:

HTTP_HOST returns the name (or ip) of the machine on which php is
running. REMOTE_ADDR will return the ip of the client accessing the

More specifically, HTTP_HOST returns the hostname used in the current
request - this may change depending on virtual host settings and relies
upon the Host: header in the request. SERVER_NAME returns the name of the
machine on which php is running, and (afaik) is /not/ dependent on the
virtual host used. The two values are frequently the same.

To the best of my knowledge, unless you're running php on a Windoze
machine, with domain authenticated Windoze clients, no.

1) print_r($_SERVER) to see what is available
2) it may be available if you have set your webserver to do DNS lookups. But
because it is expensive (ie takes quite a while to do in comparison to simply
serving the webpage) it is usually disabled
3) you can always use gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) whenever it is
needed. But do note that $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] is not a wholly reliable
indicator of who your client is.

Right...it doesn't return the machine name for any of my client machines
(didn't expect it too on the DHCP boxes, but thought it might on the two
static boxes). For the two static machines, it returns the Charter
(cable connection) and BellSouth (DSL connection) names, not my actual
machine name...gateway (returns cable-68-114-97-96.sli.la.charter.com)
for the Charter connection and web01 (returns
adsl-068-209-144-233.sip.msy.bellsouth.net) for the BellSouth.

By "remote computer name" I was assuming the OP meant the DNS name.

Hello,
I am having trouble returning attributes from an LDAP dir and was
curious if anyone had experienced similar issues. I am able to retrieve
the attributes in the $nds_stuff fine. However, once I add an attribute
to the array, I can get the last attribute in the array, but not the one
that comes before. For example, this returns usertier2, but not
usertier. If I switch the order, I can get the last one, but not the one
that comes before?
Here is my code:
$filter="(|(cn=" . $login_name . "*))";
//Attributes to get from NDS
$nds_stuff = array("cn", "sn", "fullname", "usertier");
//doesn't work as expected
//returns usertier2, but usertier is empty
//$nds_stuff = array("cn", "sn", "fullname", "usertier","usertier2");
//Search for a specified filter on the directory with the scope of
LDAP_SCOPE_SUBTREE
$results=ldap_search($ldap, $dn, $filter, $nds_stuff);
$info = ldap_get_entries($ldap, $results);
//This loops Through the array
for ($i=0; $i < $info["count"]; $i++)
{
//Declare the LDAP results as session variables
$valid_user = strtolower($info[$i]["cn"][0]);
$user_tier = $info[$i]["usertier"][0];
$user_tier2 = $info[$i]["usertier2"][0];
$user_fullname = $info[$i]["fullname"][0];
} //Close LDAP login array loop
