Thank Chris , but met with same behaviour.
2 Questions:
1- Should I drop the $url line ? I tried both ways ,
no change though.
2- Do I still need to call the SID ?

<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
$url = "nextpage.php";
Header ('Location:
http://www.mysite.com/nextpage.php);

}
?>

You should move your session_start() to the VERY top. =D

Just see if that makes any difference. You might also make sure there
is a session_id:

if (session_id())
// do stuff
else
// throw computer out the window

Have fun!

As I have pointed out in a previous thread and Mike has pointed out in this
thread you MUST use

session_write_close()

before you do a redirect.

Okay, first, sorry, but what is top post? Writing

Second, I'm not entirely sure where the
session_write_close() belongs, because here below,
isn't this a redirect? back to page2 if there are
validation errors:

if ($WAFV_Errors != "") {
PostResult($WAFV_Redirect,$WAFV_Errors,"page2");

or is it solely in:

session_write_close()
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
$url = "TestMulti3.php";
Header ('Location: http://www.mysite.com/page3.php);

Thank you ,

Are you certain? If this is true, it is a bug in PHP, and we should fix
it.

Well, it was certainly a problem, so at least it's one less thing to worry
about. :-)

> 2 Questions:

It doesn't matter. Your method was fine, but $url needs to be an absolute
one (http://example.org/path/to/script.php).

> 2- Do I still need to call the SID ?

This was a separate suggestion given by someone else, the idea being that
perhaps the browser is not sending the cookie. This is a good suggestion,
because most of these lost session problems are a result of the browser
not identifying itself (by sending the session identifier by some means).
The causes of this problem range, but this is the first thing to check.

On each page, it might be good to add some debugging information near the
top (where session_start() is):

<?php
session_start();
echo '<pre>' . htmlentities(print_r($_COOKIE, true)) . '</pre>';
echo '<pre>' . htmlentities(print_r($_GET, true)) . '</pre>';
echo session_id();
...

What you may notice is a lack of a session identifier in the $_COOKIE
superglobal or $_GET superglobal and/or the session identifier (from the
session_id() call) changing for every page.

Top posting is writing your reply above what you are replying to. It's
really not worth discussing the advantages of bottom posting, but I will
say that trimming your posts makes people not mind so much. :-)

For example, you were really only replying to two things Jason said.

This:

> Please do not top post.

and this:

Everything else in the email just gets in the way and makes it harder to
follow. That's all.

OK I just did a quick test using PHP 4.3.8 and you do NOT have to close
session before redirect. But IIRC this was an issue with older versions of
PHP so this probably got fixed somewhere along the line.

I love discussing the advantages of documented standards, and 'known
best practices' of doing things Chris.. whatever do you mean 'not
worth discussing' ? :)

Bottom posting gives context.. first you read the question, then you
read the answer. It's very helpful to those of us who read top to
bottom and left to right.

But yeah, trimming posts goes a long way towards consideration.
Nothing's worse than scrolling two or three pages to read a one line
response.

And most of all.. if you participate in a list serv like php-general,
please use a 'threaded' mail client. The list serv messages contain a
unique message id and thread capable mail clients will thread them for
you based on that message id. This somewhat prevents multiple
(correct) answers to the same questions over and over throughout the
day. And don't forget to turn threading 'on' in your mail client.
Like in Pine for example, you _have_ to turn it on before it begins to
work.

I added this in , on top, right under session_start()
as shown and get this error:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers
already sent by (output started at
/home/lurkkcom/public_html/page1.php:6) in
/home/lurkkcom/public_html/page1.php on line 54

So it's clashing with the redirect:

Header ('Location:
http://www.mysite.com/page2.php?'.SID);

I'm ready for the fork in the eye now ! ;)

Moved session_start() to way on top.

Placed the following in the redirect area:

<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
Header ('Location:
http://www.mysite.com/page2.php?'.SID);
}
?>
Following Jason's last post, based on my server using
4.3.8 I did not include the session_write_close()

This is defintely a tough one!

If your script outputs anything and then tries to redirect it WILL throw
that error. I believe if you want to do echos AND redirects you'll have to
use output buffering (see the manual: http://uk.php.net/outcontrol) and only
output the buffer if you do not redirect.

this may get you started

preg_replace('!\s(and|not|or|&&|\||\|\||)\s|(\+|-\s*)!i',' ',$string);

you have to replace with ' ' or the words will run into each other and you may
also get the + or - with no trailing space.

Ok, I think I've got it now. The code is autoexplicative, the only
restriction is that the object must be converted to an array using the
function obj2array instead of a direct cast. There's another ways to do
this without the needless of that obj2array function, but I think this
is not really a limitation.

Here it is:

function obj2array ( &$Instance ) {
$clone = (array) $Instance;
$rtn = $clone;

    while ( list ($key, $value) = each ($clone) ) {
        $aux = explode ("\0", $key);
        $newkey = $aux[count($aux)-1];

        if ( $newkey != $key ) {
            $rtn[$newkey] = &$rtn[$key];
            $rtn['___FAKE_KEYS_'][] = $newkey;
        }
    }

return $rtn;
}

function bless ( &$Instance, $Class ) {
    if ( ! (is_array ($Instance) ) ) {
        return NULL;
    }

    // First drop faked keys if available
    foreach ( $Instance['___FAKE_KEYS_'] as $fake_key ) {
        unset ($Instance[$fake_key]);
    }
    unset ( $Instance['___FAKE_KEYS_'] );

// Get serialization data from array
$serdata = serialize ( $Instance );

/* For an array serialized data seems to meant:
array_tag:array_count:{array_elems}

        array_tag is always 'a'
        array_count is the number of elements in the array
        array_elems are the elemens in the array

For an object seems to meant:

object_tag:object_class_name_len:"object_class_name":object_count:{object_members}

        object_tag is always 'O'
        object_class_name_len is the length in chars of
object_class_name string
        object_class_name is a string with the name of the class
        object_count is the number of object members
        object_members is the object_members itself (exactly equal to
array_elems)
    */

    list ($array_params, $array_elems) = explode ('{', $serdata, 2);
    list ($array_tag, $array_count) = explode (':', $array_params, 3 );
    $serdata = "O:".strlen
($Class).":\"$Class\":$array_count:{".$array_elems;

$Instance = unserialize ( $serdata );
return $Instance;
}

class TestClass {
    private $One=1;
    protected $Two=2;
    public $Three=3;

    public function sum() {
        return $this->One+$this->Two+$this->Three;
    }
}

$Obj = new TestClass ();
//$Clone = (array) $Obj;

$Clone = obj2array ( $Obj );

echo "As the original object: ";
print_r ($Obj);

echo " As an array: ";
print_r ($Clone);

$Clone["One"]=7;
$Clone["Two"]=7;
$Clone["Three"]=7;

bless ( $Clone, TestClass );

echo " After blessing as a TestClass instance: ";
print_r ($Clone);

echo " Calling sum method: ";
echo $Clone->sum();

echo " The array was blessed! miracle!!! ;-) ";

Still having trouble with this. I have tried to

Hi,

I have a submit form from where I can search things to several sites
(google, freshmeat, ...). I use PHP4/urlencode to generate the correct
query. But it seems google does not use the right encoding :(

example - query="programme télé":
********************
$engine = $_POST["engine"];
$query = urlencode($_POST["query"]);
switch($engine) {
case "google":
 echo "<html><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.google.fr/search?q=$query\"></html>";
 break;
case "freshmeat":
 echo "<html><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://freshmeat.net/search/?q=$query\"></html>";
 break;
}
********************

when I use my code, the final URL is:
        http://www.google.fr/search?q=programme+t%E9l%E9
when I search "programme télé" straight from google's page, the URL is:
        http://www.google.fr/search?num=20&hl=fr&q=programme+t%C3%A9l%C3%A9&btnG=Rechercher&meta=
i also tried (by hand):
        http://www.google.fr/search?q=programme+t%C3%A9l%C3%A9
which is working.
how comes urlencode generates "%E9" and google generates "%C3%A9" ?
is google using some specific encoding ? any tweak to encode "the google way" ?

TIA,
Jo

PS: I'm running OpenBSD/sparc64 with Apache 1 and PHP 4 (if it matters)

you can specify your encoding to google using "ie" parameter. and output
encoding with "oe". google usualy uses UTF-8, that's why some single
characters are encoded in two bytes.

hum... I don't get what you mean :(
there is no parameter to the urlencode php function, isn't it ?

I tried :
echo "<html><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://www.google.fr/search?q=".utf8_encode($query)."\"></html>";
which acts the same, aka "%E9"

and
$query = utf8_encode($_POST["query"]);
which is worse than ever :)
it produces : %20t%C3%83%C6%92%C3%82%C2%A9 %-)

can you clarify what you mean when you say "use the ie param" and "encoding with oe".

sorry if those questions seems sily, but I'm not a heavy php coder ;)

TIA,
Jo

I meant get parameters to google:

http://www.google.com/search?q=help&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

you need to change ie parameter ----^^ to whatever encoding you are using.

Hi everyone,

I have a webform which my users are expecting to act like a Windows program,
they only need to check the box and it is automatically written to the
database.

So I'd like to use a combination of javascript, like this, but it isn't
quite elegent enough:

- Tick the box.
- Javascript opens up a popup window, SQL query is made, popup window closes
again

Or a second method:

- Register an onexit() function, and auto-submit the form.

The only problem there is to remember to redirect them to their intended
destination, after having submitted the form. (i.e. they pressed back,
forward, or entered in another URL).

Can anybody point me in the right direction....?

Many thanks,
Steve

Use $dom->createProcessingInstruction($target, $data) ;
and then append this to the document.
that could maybe work

http://ch.php.net/manual/en/function.dom-domdocument-createprocessinginstruction.php
for more details.

The extension is not experimental anymore ;)
And the formatting is not lost. you didn't provide any ;) The DOM
Extension doesn't make any assumptions about the formatting of your
XML document (or correctly said, it doesn't insert whitespace
"automagically" ) but you can try to set the property formatOutput
just before saveXML:

$doc->formatOutput = true;

Never tested, but should work

Thank you Christian, the following code worked fine.
(From within the DOM object)
$this->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
$this->resolveExternals = true;
$styleSheet = $this->createProcessingInstruction("xml-stylesheet",
"type='text/xsl' href='../../../course.xsl'");
$this->appendChild($styleSheet);
$this->createRoot();
$this->formatOutput = TRUE;

I already had formatOutput = true; in the sample code. Of course when I
am loading the DOM from a string, I am providing the formatting, which
DOM is honouring but when I am creating the DOM completely from php, you
are right, I am providing no formatting. In this case, the formatOutput
works as I would have expected, (default??)formatted output when true,
and not formatted when false. It would seem that if you provide some
formatting, DOM expects you to provide it all. When I have finished
this current assignment, I'll try to follow the calls through from PHP
to libxml2, and see if I can find something more.

Once again, thanks for your help... Dusty

You said you installed in via ports, so did you happen to check the
'debug' option when you installed it?

[ ] DEBUG Enable debug

Just a question.. as that might help explain more what's going on.

You need to send the Content-Type header for text instead of html.

Hi All,

Just looking to be pointed in the right direction... I've googled and
all that, but don't know what exactly I should be looking for.

I am writing an XML application with PHP.

Side one - send XML To side two and wait for a response:

Side two - sit and wait for side one to send XML, then process and
send a response.

I guess I don't know what functions with PHP I should be focusing on.
Everything I read tells me to point the code to file.xml, but there is
no file. I'll be receiving the XML string from another place on the
internet.

Help?

It won't be thru a form. I guess it'll be a direct send, he'll format
something like...

... in a string and send it over.

What methods are best suited for something like that? Would it be
best Side One to open a socket up to Side Two and send it thru that
way? I'm open to suggestions...

Look at the SOAP functions. There's a SOAP client & SOAP server. The
applications use SOAP calls to transfer their XML messages over the
Intenet, typically http/https, but could also use smtp for transport.

Any ideas why the session variables get set to their first value after
starting the session for the second time? Should I create a different
session id each time?
Tia, Lizet

        if(session_id()){
        session_destroy();}
        ?>

Try this:

//unregister the sessions
$_SESSION['validlogin']=""; $_SESSION['username']="";
$_SESSION['password']=""; //destroy the sessions array $_SESSION = array();
//destroy the session
session_destroy();

It still doesn't work :(... When I try to destroy the session without asking
if there's a session_id, it gives me a warning, I fixed it with the
if(session_id()) but still, when the user logs in again with a different
profile, in the same browser window, the profile that is loaded is the
previous one... Here I copy the logout.php code: <?
$_SESSION['validlogin']="";
$_SESSION['username']="";
$_SESSION['password']=""; //destroy the sessions array
$_SESSION = array();
//destroy the session
if(session_id()){
session_destroy();
}
?>

And the code that runs when the user logs in:
<?
$username=trim($_POST['user']);
$password=trim($_POST['pwd']);

        if(session_id()){
        session_destroy();}
        ?>

Try this:

//unregister the sessions
$_SESSION['validlogin']=""; $_SESSION['username']="";
$_SESSION['password']=""; //destroy the sessions array $_SESSION = array();
//destroy the session

I guess this was the one thing I overlooked.
Since the page had to return to itself if validation
errors, it was already set in the validation script to
do so. So, as I had shown in my original post the
form action was blank ..well ""

Simple solution to keeping my session vars, set action
to page itself. i.e. Page1 , form action = "page1.php"

then the redirect like you all help me with. Sweet
and working ! I might be back when i get to page 5 :)

Is there a way to get PHP to display the full name of time zone?

I know I can hard code all of these using switch statemetns. I'm just

Depends on the server and the release, but my apache shows

If($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") // if true is secure

Lots of other information like cypher key size, etc.

Look in the $_SERVER array.

Keep in mind that lots of servers are setup to use the same htdocs base
directory for both secure and insecure pages, what happens if someone comes
to your unsecured page using https? Another example is, if you have coded
full urls for images, the browser will usually complain if the page is
accessed via https and the image via http.

I couldn't get SimpleXML (nor the SimpleXMLIterator) to work with NS-enabled

Using PHP you can neither find the screen resolution nor resize the
browser window. Both must be accomplished using JavaScript.

Larry

attached mail follows:

The reason why this worked for javascript is because it is a client side
instruction set. PHP is a server side instruction set. PHP has no idea
what resolution the user's screen is nor can it resize the browser. In
fact, PHP can't do anything with the browser.

I should just copy and save the above and paste it into everyone one of
these types of questions. ;)

go back and find your javascript function. PHP is server side not client
side.

Good point, I suspect much of the desirability of having PHP on the client,
is it seems almost cruel and unusual punishment to have to learn how to use
a screwdriver, after having spent valuable time learning all about a hammer.
I wonder if I would have been so enthusiastic about learning and using PHP
if I had known in the beginning that I'd need to learn JavaScript as well.

Q re: php-5.0.2 ./configure --with-soap --with-openssl --with-tidy

Hello all. Hoping for some direction with the above step.

Have PHP-5.0.2 and can configure the soap and openssl options, but when I
add the tidy option, the operation stops with the following message.

--> checking for TIDY support... yes
--> configure: error: Cannot find libtidy

I have of course gotten the latest tidy source (1.1) from sourceforge, but
don't understand what to do with it. The rpm doen't seel to load the
libtidy as I was hoping it would. Further to my confusion, the PHP docs
speak to using tidy 2.0 with PHP5, but can not locate any other refs to
tidy 2.x)

My system is Fedora Core 2 (and is pretty standard and otherwise
up-to-date).

I of course would like to get the TidyLib functions enabled within the PHP5
core. The command-line version works just fine, but I don't remember from
whence it came.

Any help would be most appreciated.

I've never have used the rpm for tidy, but in general it should in
theory install libtidy in either /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib so
you'll need to configure php like:
  ./configure --with-tidy=/usr
  or
  ./configure --with-tidy=/usr/local

If that doesn't work, then the rpm may not have installed the
libtidy.

As for the tidy 2.x reference, that is referencing php's interface
to tidy:

tidy 1.0: for php4.x
tidy 2.0: for php5.x

Both tidy's use the same libtidy, it is just that 2.0 includes the
new OO interface that PHP5 provides.

Right now, I'm tweaking a function that has a bunch of optional parameters.
I would like to be able to set a default value for the very last one if it

&arg1_len, &arg2, &arg2_len, &long, &long_len) == FAILURE { RETURN_FALSE; }

if (!long || long==NULL) {
long=DEFAULT_VALUE;

However, what I found when printing out the value of "long" is that it has
been set to 1?! I imagine this was by the zend_parse_parameters function.
Is there a way to disable it from setting values to optional parameters?

This is inside the C source code for PHP. C does not prefix variables with
a $.

The DEFAULT_VALUE was simply shorthand for what I'm setting it to, and is
not representative of an actual value, and that bit doesn't particularly
matter, since it was never getting executed (although it was for a global
constant from a header file).
