Re: [PHP] is it safe to stripslashes() on all form variables?

[Yasuo Ohgaki]

Previous post does not address how to avoid making this kind of security hole.

Anyway, if anyone want to avoid creating security hole like this. Do not
stripslashes() added by magic_quote. If you use stripslashes(), use addslashes()
again. If you do not use magic_quote, use addslashes() before feeding to
database, shell or whatever that might be dangerous w/o slashes.

Disabling magic quote will reduce amount of code and increase performance a
little, unless application is very small. Without magic_quote, script does not
have to get rid of slashes to use value from browser and add slashes again
before feeding to database. Code would be cleaner and easier to read also.
(Especially for programmers are not used to PHP.)

Hope this helps someone.

And, you should never assume magic quotes is on or off. If you're
developing for an environment you cannot control, but using an 
environment that you CAN control, you should code around magic 
quotes' presence or absence as neccessary:



This code would happily exist on servers both with and without 
magic quotes enabled.

Why should it be array and not, let's say, object?

Because I went on to use it as if I'd used fetch_array in the rest
of the example code, I'd wager.

Re: [PHP] baffled :<:

[Plutarck]

In the loop, try using print_r($myarray) in the loop to see if the data is
in there at all.

Other than that, switch the while loop to:

while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {


That should fix it...

[PHP] RE: A slightly amusing, though mostly dangerous, endless loop

[Greig, Euan]

Is the anti-recursion feature you mention automatically activated or do you need to 
configure it to take effect?

This error with print_r is documented in the manual, but would still be (have been) an 
easy trap to fall into!

This is a bug which was apparently fixed in v 4.0.4pl1 at least, but it
still present in 4.0.3

I just found it kind of amusing and it makes a nice warning.

Consider this:

print_r($GLOBALS);


That's it. It prints all the variables available, however part of it is an
array called GLOBALS. Which then prints all available variables, including
an array called GLOBALS...

And it will continue until you hit the Stop button or until the script times
out. But if you have ignore.user.abort on, it will continue till it times
out. If you've screwed with your scripts timeout settings...

...so be wary of that, and ensure you don't try and print out the variables
available in GLOBALS in older versions of PHP. It was fixed with the
anti-recursion feature, which automatically breaks endless loops.

[PHP] 'Embedding' a PDF file

[Alexis Antonakis]

Hi,

I've got a couple of questions relating to PDF files.

Firstly, to display a PDF file in your browser, I presume that you must have
a 'plug-in' installed?

Secondly, is it possible to display a PDF file within a table, as I have
only ever seen them fill up the entire browser?

TIA
Alexis

RE: [PHP] 'Embedding' a PDF file

[Henrik Johansson]

Hi alexis.

Yes, with Internet Explorer equipped with the shell-integration component in
a Windows
environment, this is possible with the Adobe Acrobat plugin.
For Netscape, this is not currently (to my knowledge) an option.
Further, to display a pdf-document in only a part of IE, the easiest way, i
guess, would be
to use frames as a base for Your HTML/PHP-documents.

Best Regards,
Henrik Johansson!

I don't know if I can answer your question thoroughly in a short space, but
suffice it to say that you'd have to provide web pages (hopefully properly
configured for proper access restrictions) where your users can edit content
in a text area (for instance) that, when submitted, updates the content in
the database.

I'm sure there are some good projects (content management systems) that do
this on SourceForge. I'm writing a web application platform (not on
Sourceforge yet) called WunSite, but content management like this is
optional in mine and is not the focus of WunSite.

'array_push' is only useful for numerically-indexed arrays. It's basically a
shortcut for getting the length of the array and putting a value in the last
available spot in an array. It treats the array like a stack.

In an associative array (or hash), the array is indexed by strings, so the
order you input them in is irrelevant (for the most part). I think in PHP
you can actually retrieve the values in the same order as you put them in,
but this does not have to be the case. Hash keys should be arbitrarily
ordered.

Instead of 'array_push', do this:

$input[$key] = $val;

Chris.

I tried doing something like:

set_error_handler("Error::handleError");

myself, and to no avail. It seems that the namespace resolution in PHP is
still very primitive. I know "Error::handleError()" will work in normal
context, but it doesn't seem to work in dynamic evaluations. Perhaps when
PHP gets real namespace support.

RE: [PHP] Time needed for a SQL-statement

[Maxim Maletsky]

Have you tried EXPLAIN ?

EXPLAIN
SELECT
*
FROM 
tables
WHERE
this='this' AND
that='that'
ORDER BY
this, that
;

A query like this would return you some of the stats. Catch the time it
gives you and vuale...
not sure though, it might be useless if the time taken to do that is
equivalent as to select pulling the results out. (think it is)

[PHP] highlighting search results (revisited)

[Matt Williams]

I am trying to write a little search script to search a mysql db.

I would like to highlight the search words for the displayed results, like
sourceforge etc...

After a little help, I have got it to hightlight when searching for one
word. The problem is if I do a search for more than one word it repeats the
hightlighting.

here's the code I got so far

$bg = explode("%",$string);
while($db->next_record())
{
$title = $db->f("title");
$des = $db->f("description");
for($z=0; $z <  count($bg); $z++)
{
if(next($bg) == false)
{
reset($bg);
}
$bgstring = current($bg);
$title = preg_replace("/($bgstring+)/ie", "'\\1'", $title);
$des = preg_replace ("/($bgstring+)/ie", "'\\1'", $des);
}
echo $title.NL;
echo $des.NL.NL;

}
The problem is is I search for class or span it screws up the code as it
replaces the span or class in the original tag.

How could I stop this?
I know this another rex ex thing and I'm gonna get the oreilly book when I'm
next in the city but untill then it's driving me bonkers.

TIA

[PHP] Is this kind of code safe?

I was playing around with various ways of doing conditional output of text, and I 
tried the following.

   value is not a


It seems to work, ie it outputs different text depending on the value of $test. But is 
it safe, can I rely on this behaviour? Maybe I just missed something somewhere, but I 
thought I would have to use echo or print in such circumstances. It'll be nice if I 
was wrong.

Use usernames. Some people have email addresses with about 50 chars 
(students at my uni e.g. get one like 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]). Nobody likes to type that 
each time to log in.

The last one with a one-way encryption function like md5(). That way (1) 
passwords are stored encrypted and (2) encrypted passwords can not be 
decrypted again. And yes, it does work.

[PHP] variables empty

[Dennis Haller]

Hi all,
I've got this problem with variables. In the code below I've got the
variables: $jaar and $vak, if I echo them they r displayed correctly, but if
the function unlink is called it doesnt seem to know what $jaar and $vak
are. If I do $the_path = "/home/H0RNET/ftp/jaar1/PRO/";  then the function
unlink works just fine.
Do I have to declare the 2 variables again? What is the problem here?

Thx,
H0RNET

Are you 100% sure that it's /bin/php ? That's a pretty unusual location 
for PHP to be installed in. /usr/bin/php or /usr/local/bin/php are the

[PHP] php equivalent for `command`

[Greig, Euan]

Is there a php equivalent for the use of ` (I think) in Unix/Perl? So for example echo 
"`$x++`" would first evaluate $x++ and then print the resulting value.

Modules are *way* faster (I haven't done benchmarks myself, but heard of 
a 10x speed increase compared to CGIs)

Sure. Let's say you pull 4 records from the DB, with the "card" field set 
to "A", "B", "C" and "D" respectively. Now you loop over the records, 
setting $card to "A", then setting $card to "B", then to "C" and finally 
to "D". In other words: in each iteration you overwrite all previous 
values

[PHP] Running php as a CGI

[Boget, Chris]

We compiled PHP to be used as a CGI and it's
working great.  However, whenever we run a
php script, the following message gets outputted
at the start of the output:

"X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.3pl1
Content-type: text/html"

Is there any way we can suppress that message?
I looked all over the docs and missed that info if
it's there.  If the details on how to suppress this
is in the documentation, a link would be most
appreciated (or a link to anywhere else that might
have this info).  Otherwise, any insight would 
be greatly appreciated!

RE: [PHP] cookies

[Grimes, Dean]

Are you using IE 5.01 by chance? I was having very strange problems with
cookies and headers. 5.00 and 5.5 both worked without problems, however 5.01
has some real bugs. Some of the problems I was having included: cookies not
deleting, executing headers caused PHP to behave abnormally and other
unexplainable random problems. I had these problems on both Win9x and NT but
after upgrading to 5.5 all of the problems went away. Just for the heck of
it I tested 5.00 as well and had no problems.

Good luck,

Yup!

Just run it with the flag '-q' to QUELL HTML-headers.

Example :

 #! /path/to/php -q
 

Or just run them with 'php -q script_name'

Good luck

If you are doing print $myrow["card"] here, $myrow at this point is false,
so that's why you see nothing. It's reset to false by the final $myrow =
mysql_fetch_array($result).

Here's wishing you more sleep and less debugging next time :-)

[PHP] Reauthenticate

[Marcelo Pereira]

Hi All,

I'm in trouble to authenticate each user (using a database).
When the user sucesfully login on your area the php script send a cookie,
and every php script reads this cookie. So when the user log ou the php
script expires the cookie and then the user cannot bookmark the page and
turn back.. but, if the user clicks the 'logout' button, I expire the
cookie e show the main screen, but, by other side, if the user click at
'back button' then he can see the page... I would like to:

- Each page look for the cookie, even if the back button is pressed.
- If the cookie isn't there, then a 'expires page' is showed

Which is the better way to do it ???

Thanks in advance,

Marcelo Pereira

Easy. Just use fopen('http://localhost/file.asp')  then fread the data you

[PHP] Returning part of a string, ereg..

[Chad Day]

I'm horrible at regex's, maybe someone can help me out.

What I'm trying to do is parse a string in the format:  number-number-number
(ex.  1-23123-312039128)

I need to pull that second number, regardless of length

This code returns nothing:

$part = ereg("([0-9]{1})-([0-9])-", $f, $regs);

but

$part = ereg("([0-9]{1})-([0-9]{1,10})-", $f, $regs);

will return the number, but I don't want to take a chance and limit it to 10
characters.  I thought the first bit of code would work.. any ideas what is
wrong?

Thanks,
Chad

[PHP] Persistent connection & many scripts ?

[Picard, Cyril]

Hi all
I use PHP to query a PostgreSQL database.
Today I know how to query the database with a PHP script, but I have to
establish a connection to the database in each script.

Is there a way to get the following : 
connect.php : a script where the user enters its login and password, and
connect to the DB by the submit button (submit button which action url is
query.php).
query.php : a script that performs a query using the connection from
connect.php

I know that I could send the login/password to the query.php to establish
the connection ; but it is not what I would like (sometimes - often - the
connection time is bigger than the query time itself !)
Thanks for your help !

Re: [PHP] Returning part of a string, ereg..

[Morgan Curley]

try
$part = ereg("([0-9]{1})-([0-9]*)-", $f, $regs);

your original exp was looking for 1 digit followed by a dash follwed by 1 
digit followed by a dash

the * should match 0 or more occurences of the previous match ( in this 
case 0 or more numbers )

you shouldn't need the {1} in there either.

But that gives you the RESULTS of the ASP script, not the script
itself.

Re: [PHP] Reauthenticate

[Plutarck]

When using sessions, which you might want to do, PHP automatically sends
header's that tell the user's browser not to bookmark the page.

The reason they can click the back button and see the page is because their
browser is caching the page. If they press the Refresh key they won't be
able to see the page, as long as you check for their cookie on that page
anyway.


So it's not fool proof (nothing is), but use header to send the Pragma:
No-cache setting.

Note: You can't _force_ the browser not to cache the page. You can only
_request_ that it not be cached.

Re: [PHP] Persistent connection & many scripts ?

[Plutarck]

Ideally you could use pconnect, then save the connection ID into a session.
Then just try and use the connection like that.

That _should_ work. But you may just want to use pconnect and not bother
with the rest...that might be just as good as what you are trying to do.

[PHP] Dynamic Pages and Google ???

[Jon Shoberg]

So I was having a conversation with a manager/educator in the IT Industry :)

In a discussion concerning search engines he stated how he dislikes dynamic
web pages (PHP/ASP/JSP/CFM) because search engine spiders 'choke' on dynamic
content or gives those pages a lower ranking.  I can't see this as being
true. I epically can't see the search spider "choking" on dynamic pages
returning well-formed/valid HTML.

Any thoughts?

Re: [PHP] php equivalent for `command`

[Plutarck]

The backtick operator " ` " is used like an exec() or passthru() function.

But I know what you mean. For instance, try running this in a script:

$n = 1;

echo "The number is: $n++";
echo "The number is: $n++";
echo "The number is: $n++";

PHP will not increment a variable inside of a string. However, now try this:

$n = 1;

echo "The number is: " . $n++ . "";
echo "The number is: " . $n++ . "";
echo "The number is: " . $n++ . "";

But now try this:

$n = 1;

echo "The number is: " . ++$n . "";
echo "The number is: " . ++$n . "";
echo "The number is: " . ++$n . "";


To do what you are wanting to do, just use the post-increment or
pre-increment operators, just like in Perl. Just be aware that PHP will not
do any mathematical functions on variables which are inside of a string.

Re: [PHP] Is this kind of code safe?

[Plutarck]

Don't use that on such small outputs, simply for the reason that it's really
hard to read and follow. It also screws up Syntax highlighting.

However, it works just like you would hope it would. When you call an ending
tag, PHP just outputs whatever is there without parsing it. But it doesn't
forget what it was doing, and will pick up right where it left off once you
call an opening tag.

But it can be pretty useful so you don't have to use here-doc printing, or
escape a bunch of things inside of a string.

Maybe *you* need glasses :)

#ifndef HAVE_DBMAKER
if ((*pv_onoff)) {
#else
if (pv_onoff && (*pv_onoff)) {
#else

Either way an "if" block is started but not finished.

As Dan pointed out, it looks as if the diff got truncated.

Snap I'm afraid. I didn't spend too much time on it but it's on the list of

If this is urgent though Chris, let me know your exact configure/build

you built these. As there's not as many of us on SCO it maybe better if we

Re: [PHP] Dynamic built web pages administration

[Plutarck]

If you are storing the content in a database, your job is a ton easier.

Just add an edit link on the page you want people to be able to edit. It
will link over to an edit page with the value of the current page sent in
the URL via get.

Get the content from the database pointed to by the url, and stick it in a
variable.

On the edit page have a text area. Set the "value" to the content the person
can edit.

When someone clicks submit, just take the content they submit and stuff it
into the database using UPDATE.

Of course you will need to do safety features like stripslashes() or the
special character functions before storing the data, just to be safe. You
will also want to have the option only available for registered users, and
you probably want to limit it to users you know won't be malicious.

There are many little tricks like using a little piece of javascript to
execute a file on the hard drive that shouldn't be executed, malicious
ActiveX controls, java applets, etc, that you don't want users writing to
the page.

But for administration used by only trusted people, it's actually pretty
simple to put together. For use by people who aren't trusted...

[PHP] HTML and slashes.

[Dddogbruce \(@home.com\)]

Hi.

Considering PHP takes " 's " into consideration as part of the script,
and adds a slash infront of them I need a way to overcome this.  And
second of all, I need a way to prevent HTML code from being seen, none
the less used on the output.


 $subject :  mailto:$email\">$name   $submition  " );
fclose( $fp );
 }
else
 {
include ( "guestbooks.php" );
 }
?>

All help's welcome, since I need it..  :P

Re: [PHP] HTML and slashes.

[Johannes Janson]

Hi,

there is NO way of hiding the html from the user.
the browser can't output otherwise. You can only
try to make it difficult to get the source.

Where does the " 's " problem come in? More detail plz.
Is it a part of a text? Then try htmlspecialchars() or
htmlentities().

Why don't you just put the quotes outside the php?

RE: [PHP] Dynamic Pages and Google ???

[Jeff Holzfaster]

I too would be interested in learning what others on this list might have to
say about this.  Knowing how a search engine such as Google indexes a site
or a page might be a good starting point in answering this debate: dynamic
vs. static.

Jeff




So I was having a conversation with a manager/educator in the IT Industry :)

In a discussion concerning search engines he stated how he dislikes dynamic
web pages (PHP/ASP/JSP/CFM) because search engine spiders 'choke' on dynamic
content or gives those pages a lower ranking.  I can't see this as being
true. I epically can't see the search spider "choking" on dynamic pages
returning well-formed/valid HTML.

Any thoughts?

Re: [PHP] Returning part of a string, ereg..

[Plutarck]

This:

ereg("([0-9]{1})-([0-9])-", $f, $regs);

What that means is "Capture a single occurance of 0-9, then a hyphen, then
capture a single occurance of 0-9 if it is imediately folowing by a hyphen."

Try this instead:

([0-9]{1})-([0-9]+)-

The "+" means "one or more". So "[0-9]+" is the same as "[0-9]{1,}". For
instance, "{x,y}" matches at least x amount of characters, but no more than
y amount of characters. Leave y off to match "x or more of the mentioned
characters". But don't forget that comma.


Regex is incredibly hard until you learn it. Then it doesn't seem hard
anymore :)

Re: [PHP] cgi vs. module

[Plutarck]

The only reason I am aware of to use PHP as a CGI is on Windows. Both apache
and the php module for windows apache is considered "beta quality", so most
people don't want to install beta software on their production machine.

But just on my local system I've never had a problem with PHP as CGI. I
honestly thought I had PHP as a module until I re-read my phpinfo, lol. And
I assumed that NuSphere would install it as a module...;)

Re: [PHP] cgi vs. module

If someone wants to run PHP scripts for other purposes then dynamic web
content, say to act like shell scripts, then you'll want to have it be
compiled as a CGI...so, its more than just the windows thing...

Re: [PHP] Dynamic Pages and Google ???

[Philip Hallstrom]

I'm not an expert in this, but I suspect that some search engines will
probably ignore URL's that look like this:

/path/to/dynamic.php?arg=1&foo=bar

because it sees the ? and knows that it's a dynamic result and perhaps
very likely to change.

I had always assumed that's why many sites (such as amazon) use urls
like this instead:

/path/to/dynamic.php/arg/1/foo/bar

which don't have the ? so perhaps the engine does cache it?

just my 2 cents.

Re: [PHP] Job in Whistler, BC

It should be noted that programming facilities are entirely outdoor. But
they do provide those little hand-held vacuums to suck the snow out from
between your keyboard keys.










Nah, I'm just kidding. But it is in Canada, so you will be forced to type
"a\'boot" hundreds of times a day ;)

(a little poke at our canadian friends. Which I am perfectly willing to do,
because I'm waaay down here on the gulf of mexico, and they'd have to

Each spider is different, and they've changed over time.  Often they don't
index a page that has a ? in it - they definitely won't be able to follow
form input tags and such - the possibilities for input are limitless.

Some can follow
blah.com/index.php?alh=fff

and links of that nature.  If you've got redirects in there,tho, they'll often
choke on those.

Apache has an advantage over IIS because you can normally
pass in parameters in the $PATH_INFO area -
http://www.blah.com/index.php/blag/222/dsfsd/dlkjsdf
calls the index.php with /blag/222/dsfsd/dlkjsdf as parameters you can grab in
your
script.  IIS doesn't allow for this.  :(  (not natively anyway)

Some search engines wouldn't FOLLOW a ? in a link,
but will accept one as a 'submitted page' to index if you submit it manually.

Again, all of this information is necessarily vague.  What works one year
doesn't work the next.

This was all info and experienced gleaned while building keywordcount.com a few
years
ago - the whole landscape has changed, and getting 'indexed' by search engines
is nice,
but imo can be a big waste of time and money given that there are many factors
beyond your control entirely.  SEOs will bash me upside the head for that one,
but it's been my experiences over the past couple years.  :)

Say I right "Hiya, my name's Owen" on the submission part of the form.  It'll
show up as "Hiya, my name\'s Owen" on the output (which is a .txt file.)

Re: [PHP] RFC: Storing User Info

[Plutarck]

As others suggested, use md5 or one of the mhash functions. You can't
retrieve the password, but you shouldn't need to anyway.

When someone looses their password, get rid of their old one and mail them
their randomly created new one. Then just allow them to change it to
whatever they want.

Make sure to tell them to use a valid email address or require a
confirmation, otherwise when people loose their password they can never get
it back.

People tend to email you when they loose their password, so be sure to make
it clear that "once it's gone, it's really gone, and you just have to pick a
new one".


I try to avoid emailing a user with their password with exception to when
they loose it. Then again, there isn't really much of an alternative...

Re: [PHP] HTML and slashes.

[Jack Dempsey]

I want to hide the HTML from the browser.  If someone adds some
malicious
code, or even  I don't want it to underline.

Could you rephrase this? You want to "hide" the HTML from the browser?
If the browser doesn't see any HTML, good luck getting a web page. 
If you're trying to hide the HTML from the user, you're in for some
fun...you can do things like disable right clicking, but then they can
view source the page. 
You can make the page contain frames and then they'd see the frameset,
and wouldn't be able to click into the source...but then they could
check the page referenced in the url attribute of your
frameset...basically, as said before, you can't completely cut the end
user off from the HTML output...what are you worried about anyway, with
the  example?

As far as the name\'s problem, check php.net for info about magic
quotes...you probably have them on...if they are on, PHP will
"magically" put a \ in front of ' or " so you don't have to worry about
that when you enter your data into wherever...you can disable it in your
php.ini, or at runtime...

Re: [PHP] Dynamic Pages and Google ???

[Plutarck]

Getting listed in search engines really is important. But in the vein of
what you were talking about, people shouldn't really "worry" about it.

Note: Getting listed in directories like Yahoo is way more important than
having any search engine list you. You always receive a far more targeted
user with places like Yahoo, because they really do want to see what you
have to say.


Back on topic, the only search engines worth bothering with can handle
dynamic pages just fine. There is _no_ difference in a static html page and
a dynmically created one.

However, be _very_ careful with sessions. Sessions can force a query string
onto the end of every page on your first page, causing the spider to be
unable to visit any other page in your site!

Also be extremely careful about the use of  and browser sniffing.
So many sites do something classically stupid so that when someone sees
their site in a search engine, the description is "Your browser does not
support frames. Your browser must support frames to view this site."...I
just want to slap the webmaster every time I see that.


In short, on your index page (which is what you want bookmarked the most) do
not have links with query strings in them, do not use redirects, do not use
frames (period. if you want to use them everywhere else on the site that's
ok, but don't do it on the main page!), do not use session_start(), and do
not complain if the user has disabled javascript- if you want your site to
be well listed in search engines.

With all that taken into effect, I can see why the person you were talking
to disliked dynamic sites. But if the webmaster knows the rules of the
search engines, dynamic sites work just perfectly.

RE: [PHP] Dynamic built web pages administration

[Romulo Roberto Pereira]

dear Plutark,

Thank you for your input.

But, let's say that I have the following:


 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text



 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text


My user don't know html. At all... So how do I do to create an edit admin
that let him only modify the text?

I did something like this:



 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text





 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text
 some text some text some text some text some text some text some text some
text



It works fine, because I identify the edit areas by the comment tags.
The problem with this is that if I put an option like Add New Page to the
admin system, the user would have to surround the tags with the comments, I
mean, he would have to edit the HTML.

Pretty toff thing!!!

Jesus!!

Thank you,

Rom

If you are storing the content in a database, your job is a ton easier.

Just add an edit link on the page you want people to be able to edit. It
will link over to an edit page with the value of the current page sent in
the URL via get.

Get the content from the database pointed to by the url, and stick it in a
variable.

On the edit page have a text area. Set the "value" to the content the person
can edit.

When someone clicks submit, just take the content they submit and stuff it
into the database using UPDATE.

Of course you will need to do safety features like stripslashes() or the
special character functions before storing the data, just to be safe. You
will also want to have the option only available for registered users, and
you probably want to limit it to users you know won't be malicious.

There are many little tricks like using a little piece of javascript to
execute a file on the hard drive that shouldn't be executed, malicious
ActiveX controls, java applets, etc, that you don't want users writing to
the page.

But for administration used by only trusted people, it's actually pretty
simple to put together. For use by people who aren't trusted...

Re: [PHP] HTML and slashes.

[Plutarck]

Check magic_quotes_runtime in your ini. If it's on, turn it off.

Use the htmlspecialchars() family of functions. They will "hide" HTML in
that the browser will not attempt to parse. so "" will be displayed as
"", and not make all the text turn to bold.

It's automatically enabled, and I don't think it's available for disabling.
I recall hearing something about a feature being added to PHP to help
prevent infinate loops, and it apparently works with print_r.

It should probably be listed more prominately and in any place where
$GLOBALS is mentioned.

The first time I saw it I was thinking, "Geeze, this page sure is taking a

[PHP] Session Variables & Cookies

[Bob Clingan]

I've tried to follow the example in the online manual, but and I believe my
session/cookie variables are being stored. Is there some specific way I need
to call them? Can anyone provide a brief example?

Thanks.

[PHP] get_class()

[Boget, Chris]

Given the following code:

-

class myClass {
  function myClass() {
$classVar = get_class( $this );

  }
}

$thisInstance = new myClass();

-

What value should $classVar contain?

"myClass"

or

"thisInstance"

?
The documentation leads me to believe that it is the 
latter value, but in practice it contains the former.  
If it is supposed to have the latter value, is there any
way I can get the fomer?  Any way that I can get the 
name "thisInstance"?

Re: [PHP] OT - cyber squatting?

[Plutarck]

I assume you mean registering a web address of a company, just to keep them
from registering it or to try and make them pay you for it?

Check NetworkSolutions "domain name dispute" policies.

InterNIC has a pretty good policy, actually. If someone registers a name
with is copyrighted, trademarked, or is clearly only valuable because it is
familiar to a registered trademark of copyright, they are in violation and
the domain name can be taken away from them and awared to the rightful owner
via arbitration.

To avoid having a domain name taken away they must prove either that they
have made a good-faith effort to build a destinctive trademark of brand
which does not impede upon a pre-existing copyright, and that the name was
not registered for the sole purpose of keeping someone from rightfully
registering it.


Is that what you meant?

Re: [PHP] cgi vs. module

[Dan Lowe]

Previously, Franklin Hays said:
> 
> RE: PHP as a CGI or Module

Generally people will almost always use the module because it's faster and
simpler, and gives you some IPC kind of advantages that the CGI doesn't
have ("internal" cross-talk with Apache).

Reasons to use the CGI:

1. Windows servers must use CGI form

2. If you want to use command-line PHP scripts you need the CGI form

3. If you want suExec support I believe you need to use the CGI form

[PHP] PHP and a C++ application

[Xinkun Wang]

I am doing a project with PHP to a text database. Basically the text
database is created in C++. But I only can use exec() function
to transfer query commands as an array parameter to its interface, and get 
result from a temp file. Not like php directly call mysql function, and I 
want to (if possible) create my function which can do things like mysql 
function. Anyone know how to do it? Or anyone can tell me which is the best 
solution to connect a C++ application from PHP?

Re: [PHP] Time needed for a SQL-statement

Hmm, how about metering the overall time required by mysql_query() using
microtime(), http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.microtime.php. As
long as there's no network bottleneck between the database (server) and
the application (server) you should be able to use that time as an
approximate value.

What's the value of $d is unlink ever executed? Try unlink($the_path .
$d).

Re: [PHP] get_class()

[Plutarck]

"This function returns the name of the class of which the object obj is an
instance."

The name of the class is "myClass", therefore the behavior is as it should
be.

"thisInstance" is an object, not a class. If you are trying to do something
imparticular you'll have to be more specific.

As for getting the name "thisInstance", I'm not really sure why you'd need
to, so I can't think of a work-around.

Since "thisInstance" is the name of the object, you need some object related
function. I've never had to do it, so I have no clue how, but maybe someone
else will know :)
