This is what you are asking PHP to do.
Actually - to achieve this - it would be better to use the 'htmlspecialchars()' function
[http://php.libero.it/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars.php]
Anyway, probably I didn't understand what you want from your code...

Ok, first off there are builtin functions to do this kind of thing:
http://www.php.net/htmlspecialchars
http://www.php.net/nl2br
Secondly, think about what your code is doing, and the order that it's
doing the replacements.
The first thing you're doing is replacing the newlines with <br> tags.
The second and third things you're doing will disable all the tags
including the <br> tags you've just inserted, by replacing '<' with
< and '> with > html entities;
The fourth thing you're doing is disabling the html entities by
replacing '&' with & including the entities you've just inserted
as steps two and three.

Like the others have said, consider using htmlspecialchars().

The owner should now be the user the Web server is running as.
To change file ownerships you need to use the PHP FTP functions.

Could you post the relevant parts of your code so we have a little
context to work in?
You say you're copying a file from one location to another on the same
server. If this is the case you are very unlikely to be in need of the
ftp family of functions, which are only valid for use over an
established ftp connection.
I suspect that the file is indeed now owned by the webserver
has it changed from aidal:somegroup to nobody:nogroup or something like
that?
Post us some code and the answers you get will probably be more useful
Cheers

You can indeed establish an FTP connection to your local server - provided it has an FTP
server running.
The files are actually copied by Apache (or whatever Web server he's using), so this is
why the server becomes the owner.

I guess this is the problem Aidal is experiencing.
In order to maintain file ownserships, what he can do (since he doesn't have PHP 5) is
"copy" the file with 'ftp_fput()' [http://php.libero.it/manual/en/function.ftp-fput.php].
That is, he opens the files he wants to copy and PUTs it via this function. Since he is
logged in - using 'ftp_connect()' and 'ftp_login()' - the files will be owned by the user
he used to login.

Aidal,
presumably, your server had the write to copy the file, otherwise the
copy would have failed. Is the only problem that you don't have the
correct permissions on the copied file?? if so check out
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.umask.php>. If you set the umask
before you copy, you should have the correct permissions.
Best regards. . . Dusty

Aidal,
I assume that you are using your server to copy the file, and since the
copy apparently suceeds, your server must have read access to the source
file. Check out
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.umask.php>. If you set the
correct umask prior to your copy, your copied file should end up with
the correct permissions. Even if it doesn't, you should be able to
chmod correctly. Be careful with the mask, it is set up with negative
logic. If you have access to an *nix system, try a "man umask" for more
information.
Hope this helps. . . Dusty

Aidal,
since you are using the server to copy the file, and the copy succeeds,
the server obviously has at least read access to the source.
You just can't get the permissions right. Check out:
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.umask.php>. If you have access
to your server or another *nix machine also check out "man umask". If
you set your umask before the copy, your file should be copied with the
right permissions. If you set the umask after the copy, you should be
able to chmod. Be careful how you set the umask, it's not as straight
forward as is seems.
Hope this helps. . . Dusty

Unfortunately yes. This is a serial code from a paper form. Because they

no other way.
(maybe I should implement an archivating function)

Yes.
I have set it to 64M, but it didn't seem to work.
It is strange, that now I have set it to -1 (according to the php doc
this is the value for unlimited memory access). Now it is faster. But by
now I can't say how fast it really is. The customer will say it
tomorrow.
Thanks very much for the help by now
attached mail follows:
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!
This becomes more and more strange. Aftar I was really happy, that the
code runs fast again, the customer sent an e-mail that is still slow.
So I logged in into his network and everything was ok for me, but when
they tried to use the program, I still saw (using top), that the CPU
usage is still 5% (highest value).
So I began to use the debug log of apache, and see what happened (LOOK
AT THE LAST NUMBER, WHICH SHOWS HOW LONG THE SCRIPT RUN):
In this case I was using it from the localhost:
10.36.0.5 - - [20/Oct/2004:14:27:25 +0200] "GET
/form.php?op=reprint_form_sel HTTP/1.1" 200 1478211 "-" "Links (0.99;
Linux 2.6.8-1-686 i686; 80x24)" 17970 3
In this case I was using it from another host in the network (actually
the proxy):
10.36.0.2 - - [20/Oct/2004:14:23:33 +0200] "GET
/bizerba/form.php?op=select_form HTTP/1.0" 200 1473492 "-"
"Lynx/2.8.5rel.1 libwww-FM/2.14
SSL-MM/1.4.1 GNUTLS/0.8.12" 17969 7
In this case the some other client was using it from the network:
10.36.0.2 - - [20/Oct/2004:14:33:23 +0200] "GET
/bizerba/form.php?op=select_form HTTP/1.0" 200 1473492 "-" "Mozilla/4.0
(compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)" 17970 36
No, it is not the network, which is slow!
Is it possible, that all clients (except me) are accessing it throug a
proxy and some proxy settings were changed, so the webserver is running
slower? (of course this wouldn't excplain the fact, the the code ran
slower on other machines too).

In my experience the most common network slowdown issues involve
overloaded isp DNS servers. I'd do a few nslookups and see how
responsive their nameservers are. You can easily add 4-5 seconds to a
php script's execution time with a bad nameserver. Then you add a
proxy server in there as you described and things will only get worse.
You might want to see if there's any packet loss with a ping test too.

outputs the date of the previous Monday. Does anyone know of another way?

I believe my solution to this went something along the lines of
strtotime("-6 days monday", ....);
It's quite a while since I last used this, so I might not have it quite
right, but this should set you on the road.

Great!
Really, if your purpose was to be helpful, you failed miserably.
The helpful part would have been that you would've actually hinted as
into _how_ it was possible.
I'm not looking for ready solutions or ready scripts, but with messages
like these you really only waste other peoples' time.

Conversion of / to \ is done for you by PHP. The only thing you might
need to consider is the drive on which PHP is installed.

A small sed script would easily handle this conversion. I doubt you
have any of those on windows so I'd do the conversion before moving.
for file in *.php; do
cp $file $file.tmp
sed -e "s/\//\\\\/g" $file.tmp >$file
rm $file.tmp
done
Remember on windows you will be dealing with backslashes instead of
forward slashes, and you have to escape the backslashes with
backslashes.
$path = '/usr/local/blah';
will be something like:
$path = 'c:\\inetpub\\www';

Just a point: this will be a problem if they have some forward slashes
that are not specifying file paths, i.e. URLs in the code like
http://www.whereveryouwant.com/ will be substituted by

After some back and forth posts here I had finally
thought my array issue was over, but!
To review I have 30 form elements on a page
10 are skill[]
10 are sky[]
10 are slu[]
I pass them as session variables
$_SESSION['skills'] = $_POST['skill'];
$_SESSION['skys'] = $_POST['sky'];
$_SESSION['slus'] = $_POST['slu'];
Then when everyting is passed into a database
transaction:
$skills = $_SESSION['skills'];
$skys = $_SESSION['skys'];
$slus = $_SESSION['slus'];
foreach($_SESSION['skills'] as $key => $skill)
{
$query = "INSERT INTO Profiles_skills (ProfileID,
SkilCerts, NumYear, Lused)
VALUES ($LID, '$skill',
{$_SESSION['skys'][$key]},{$_SESSION['slus'][$key]})";
//$result = mysql_query($query);
Here is the problem:
Using
(((isset($_POST["skill[]"]))?$_POST["skill[]"]:"") .
"",true,true,true,true,"",false,1);
I can't seem to differentiate between the the elements
because they are all labeled skill[]
So basically validation isn't doing anything .
I'm thinking of finding a better way to validate , or
if i change the elements to skill[1], skill[2] , what
would that do to my iteration loop ?
Thank you,
Stuart
attached mail follows:
Not sure I really know where you have the problem, but I am assuming you are
trying to construct the INSERT statement within your foreach loop.
If so, why use $_POST["skill[]"] when you have $skill which is that current
element being iterated?
Did you read the foreach doc?

My problem is not related to the insert or iteration.
It's related to the validaton of those elements:
skill[]
skill[]
etc.
Clearer ?

Maybe you would like to post your validation code then.
I (we) do not know where the line:
(((isset($_POST["skill[]"]))?$_POST["skill[]"]:"")."",true,true,true,true,""
,false,1);
is being called.
Have you thought about using an iteration as you have when constructing the
INSERT statement?
Have you considered placing validation within the iteration you have when
constructing the INSERT statement?
If you do a print_r($skills) you will see that although in the form they are
named skill[] when passed to your script they will be skill[0], skill[1],
skill[2]...
Also, this line :
foreach($_SESSION['skills'] as $key => $skill)
could read
foreach($skills as $key => $skill)
as you have the line:
$skills = $_SESSION['skills'];
Same for skys and slus.

I think I might know what you are trying to do. You want to have a
"name" associated with the skill (or skys or slus). You can use an
associative array to "name" your array elements. In your form, you can
change the array to be something like this:
skills[cooking]
skills[flying]
skills[walking]
...
Notice there are no quotes around the skill names. Now each array
element has an array key that is a name. The computer doesn't really
care, but it makes it easier for you to read your code. And you now
have name/value pairs. You can process the array like this:
$skillNames = array_keys($skills);
foreach($skillNames as $skill) {
echo 'Skill: '.$skill.' Value: '.$skills[$skill].' <br />';
}
Of course, instead of echoing you would do your validation or
substitution.

Brent,
Thank you , I can't do an associative because it part
of a user input form. The values will be dependent on
the users. I'm going to try and give each form
element a index number skill[0], skill[1] since the
foreach loop is doing that anyway.
The reason I haven't posted the validation is because
it's part of a class, so what exists in the page is
only part of the code.

I thought you were using checkboxes based on your true/false. So the
user is actually typing in skills?
Not sure where you are going with skill[0], skill[1]. You are creating
an associative array when you do that. In and input form, skill[0] and
skill[a] are actually no different, aside from the name you are using
for that element.
