RE: [PHP] inspirational

[Ray Hunter]

Why don't you try something like this...do a system call to pwd and
strip out the portion of the url that you know is the upper directory.
Then you can exchange that for the http://www.site.com/  and then add
the additional directories to the end and call the script name...there
might not be a function that does all this, however, you can try to work
around it

Thanks,

Ray Hunter

Subject: [PHP] inspirational


I want to detect the url my .php lies in.

This is over kill and BS:

$myurlvar = "http://".$SERVER_NAME.parse($SCRIPT_NAME);

How do I get "http://foo.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/";.

There seems to be nothing in phpinfo() that will give me a full url to
play with.

Flame me if you will, but I browsed TFM and found nothing inspirational.

Looked at phpinfo() too and got discouraged.

I need a full url.

John

After moving to php 4.2.1 my scripts that use xxx.php?blah=4 fail to work.

I know that i need to turn register_globals on in my config, however I know 
that there are security problems with this.  So bascially I need to know 
how to make 500+ scripts work without editing a bunch of files to make it 
so that all my get and post vars start with $_POST and $_GET

any ideas?

For now you can add this to the top of your scripts:

$types_to_register = array('GET','POST','COOKIE','SESSION','SERVER');
  foreach ($types_to_register as $type) {
$arr = @${'HTTP_' . $type . '_VARS'};
if (@count($arr) > 0) {
  extract($arr, EXTR_OVERWRITE);
}
  }

Somebody else posted this a few weeks back and it has worked for me until I
can convert everything over...

Do you know what the security problems are? Do you realise that having
register_globals on or off isn't the security problem, it's how you write
your code? If you're not going to change any of your code, just turn on
register_globals. Changing your code to _POST or _GET and doing nothing else
isn't making it any more secure that using it the way it is with
register_globals on.

I looked through your configuration files and didn't notice any
serious differences between them and my ones. I have PHP 4.2.1/Apache
2.0.36 on WinXP Pro. My register_globals was off. When I made it On
your scipt worked properly. I don't know what the reason. What PHP you
have?

I attached my php.ini. Maybe you can find some important things.
Another one question: does $PHP_SELF give proper value? It must not be
set if register_globals=off. So if $PHP_SELF is set to some value,
then global variables are registered.

And the last question: why do you use global variables? It's much
easier to use superglobal arrays $_POST, $_SERVER, etc. They guarantee
that any values passed to your script won't be mixed.

Re: [PHP] Need some advice concerning forms (multi select pulldown) and arrays

[Victor Spång Arthursson]

Hello and thanks for your fast answer!

I'ld like to know if there is any possibility to distinguish the selects 
if I've multiple multiple selects, that is, more than one on the same 
page? What I'm loooking for is the possibility to have an unknown number 
of multiple selects on the same page

Is it possible? Anyone who can describe how to do this or provide a link 
to some tutorial? And also, where in the manual can I read about this?

Re: [PHP] inspirational

[Michael Virnstein]

but the scriptname itself will be included there.
Try this, if you don't want the scriptname to be included.:

$url = preg_replace('/^(http:\/\/)[^\/]+((\/[^\/])*\/)([^\/]+)$/',
'\\1$SERVER_NAME\\2', $SCRIPT_URI);

Haven't tested them, but should work.

You need to define the type of file you are creating.
Like when you create wml pages with php.

Header("Content-Type: text/javascript");
or summing to that effect.

Just give each select its own name. Or name them all the same followed
by an [] and you'll end up with a multi-dimensional array if things go

RE: [PHP] inspirational

[John Holmes]

If you're getting this discouraged over creating a URL, then maybe you
should give this stuff up. There's no variable that gives you the full
URL of your script, deal with it.

What is this parse() function you're using? What does it do? Why is this
"over kill and BS"?

Try this:

$myurlvar = http:// . $SERVER_NAME . dirname($SCRIPT_NAME);

Sounds better - but I've a lot of items and I'ld like to know which of 
the arrays that go to which item... Can I just write 
…name=array[whateverid] and then in some way reveal the whateverid's?

[PHP] arrays

[Michael Hall]

A couple of simple ones here ... the usual references don't appear to give
a straightforward answer on these:

Can arrays be passed to functions just like a simple variable?

Can arrays be passed as values in hidden form fields just like a
simple variable?

I've been playing around with these and getting inconsistent results.
I've been trying things like serialize and urlencode, but still haven't
worked out a straightforward 'rule' or policy.

Can someone throw some light on this?

> Can arrays be passed to functions just like a simple variable?
yes, no difference. You can pass every variable to a function, you can pass
constants or your values directly. You have to use a variable if a function
requires passing by reference or if you want to pass by refernce, because
only variables can take the value back.

> Can arrays be passed as values in hidden form fields just like a
> simple variable?

yes, but differently.
either you serialize the array, send it urlencoded to the page and
unserialze it there:
//page1.php:

Page2
//or input field:


//page2.php


or you can appen urls like this, no serialization or sth needed then both
pages:
numerical indexed arrays:
Page2
or
Page
2
string indexed arrays:
Page2

or with forms:

numerical indexed arrays:





or





string indexed arrays:

Re: [PHP] Need some advice concerning forms (multi select pulldown) and arrays

[Victor Spång Arthursson]

Ok, I can't get this right...

Have the following code:

'dog', 2 => 'cat', 3 => 'mouse', 4 => 'frog');

if (is_array($_REQUEST['animals']))
{
// get the number of selectcases
echo "get the number of selectcases: " . count($animals) . "";

// get the number of provided selects from select with name "2"
echo "get the number of provided selects from select with name 
\"2\": " . count($animals[2]) . "";

// test to print some data
echo $animals[2][0]. "";
echo $animals[2][1]. "";
echo $animals[2][2]. "";
echo $animals[2][3]. "";
}
   ?>


dog
cat
mouse
frog


 
dog
cat
mouse
frog
 


Why does it not work?

// get the number of selectcases
echo "get the number of selectcases: " . count($animals) . "";

This works great

// get the number of provided selects from select with name "2"
echo "get the number of provided selects from select with name 
\"2\": " . count($animals[2]) . "";

But this doesn't...

Thankful for any help,

Just to be clear, $_GET['id'] will work fine with register_globals 
on or off.  In otherwords, these php predefined variables will 
exist either way.  Just like the older non-super ones, such as 
$HTTP_GET_VARS.

[PHP] regex help

[Jeff Field]

This is not really specific to PHP (although the information might be useful
for all that form validation we all do), and for that I apologize in advance
(does anyone know of a regex mailing list?), but maybe someone here can help
with the following:

I find no good regex for checking valid domain names.  None that I have seen
take into account the fact that, although dashes ("-") and dots (".") are
allowed in a domain name, the domain name can neither begin with nor end
with a dash or dot, and additionally, two dashes or two dots in a row are
not allowed and a dash followed by a dot or a dot followed by a dash are not
allowed.

So, I've come up with two regex's for checking domain names. The first one
checks that the name contains alphanumerics, the dash and the dot, and
neither begins with or ends with a dash or dot:

   ^[a-z0-9]$|^[a-z0-9]+[a-z0-9.-]*[a-z0-9]+$

The second one checks that two dashes and two dots are not together and that
a dash followed by a dot or a dot followed by a dash are not together:

   --|\.\.|-\.|\.-

Putting it all together, the way I check for a valid domain name is with the
following:

   if (eregi("^[a-z0-9]$|^[a-z0-9]+[a-z0-9.-]*[a-z0-9]+$", $domain_name) !=
true
  OR eregi("--|\.\.|-\.|\.-", $domain_name) == true
   {
  error;
   }

So, my question (finally!) is this:

Is there any way to combine both expressions (basically, one part that
checks for false and one part that checks for true) into one regex that just
returns true or false?  I haven't been able to find any documentation that
shows me how to do that, basically a "like this but not like this" syntax.

BTW, anticipating someone mentioning the fact that the above regex's don't
check for a domain name ending with a dot followed by three characters max
(as in .com, .net, etc.), it's because that long-held truth is no longer
true.  We now have .info and .museum, and who know what the future will
bring.

About the only truth left is that domain names end in a dot followed by two
characters minimum (there are the country code domains like .us, .de. etc.
but there are no one character TLD's at present and I would expect perhaps
not for a long long time, but you never know).  Perhaps someone would expand
on the regex above to include checking for a name ending with a dot followed
by two characters minimum, I just haven't been into regex's long enough to
know how).

Of course, you could get really anal about all this and check for domain
names that only end in the current ICANN root server TLD's (about 260 or so,
I believe), but that wouldn't account for TLD's that operate within other
root servers (there's always sumthin').  Anyways,

Any help with the above is certainly appreciated!

Jeff

Re: [PHP] regex help

[Miguel Cruz]

I use this, but it's a preg rather than ereg pattern:

 '/([a-z0-9]+[a-z0-9\-]*\.)+[a-z0-9]+[a-z0-9\-]*[a-z0-9]+$/i'

Two problems (which in practice are so slight that I've foregone my usual 
standards-analness to ignore them) 

  1) It will allow a domain name component (except the final one) to end 
 with a dash (e.g., "test-.example.com").

  2) It will not allow a one-character final component.

Re: [PHP] arrays

[Philip Olson]

> Can arrays be passed to functions just like a simple variable?

Yes.

Yes, with a little work.

> I've been playing around with these and getting inconsistent

For example:

  $arr = array('color' => 'red', 'fruit' => 'apple');

  $str_arr = urlencode(serialize($arr));

  

And in the action script, do:

  $arr = unserialize(stripslashes($_REQUEST['foo']));

Notes:

  a) stripslashes may be needed, in case magical quotes 
 get in the way (magic_quotes_gpc).
  b) am using $_REQUEST, you may use $_GET or $_POST or 
 whatever contains the form value.
  c) hidden, text, textarea ... doesn't matter.
  d) a way to test if what _should_ be an array 
 is really an array is with print_r() and/or 
 is_array().  print_r($arr);
  e) we don't need urldecode() because that'll 
 happen automatically when going through the form.
  f) you could use implode() instead of serialize too.

I hope so :)

[PHP] Parsing PHP output

[Mark]

Dear folks,

Has anyone ever been able to get a CGI to produce valid PHP output??

Whatever I do, my browser ALWAYS wants to open or save the non-parsed PHP
text produced by the CGI file. And yes, I have set the proper ExecCGI and
PHP entries in my vhosts.conf; and yes, I restarted the server.

Basically, I open an existing php file (in a Perl CGI), and output its
contents again to the Apache server. The CGI starts with sending this
header:

print "Content-type: application/x-httpd-php\n\n";

Then I output the text. But, no matter what I do, it will not parse the PHP
code. I do not understand this. Regular PHP files in that dir work fine.
There is, as far as I can see, no reason why this should not work.

And the PHP file really needs to be generated from the CGI, as it needs to
run as a specific user.

Anyway, any help would be much appreciated,

- Mark

RE: [PHP] Parsing PHP output

[Ray Hunter]

The problem is that you are sending this output to the browser and not
the server.  You can do this with XML because IE and Netscape have XML
parsers built-in.  You should create a form that will catch the data
from CGI then handle it on the server.  There might be other work
arounds as well...however, I have only played with the XML stuff...

Thanks,

Ray Hunter

[PHP] ini_set('register_globals',0) doesn't work

[Jens Lehmann]

I tested ini_set('register_globals',0) and ini_set('register_globals','Off')
for turning register_globals off. It doesn't work and it doesn't produce any
notice, warning or error.

Here's a quick example:

$test";

?>

 
 


This prints out $test, what it shouldn't do with register_globals turned
off.
I tested this with PHP 4.1.2 and 4.2.1. Even if I start to doubt it is
supposed to work according to the documentation. Can anyone tell
me what I've done wrong?

For some strange reason if I do

echo ini_set('register_globals',0);

it will print "10". For

echo ini_set('register_globals','Off');

it will print "1Off".

Jens

PS: ini_set works fine with include_path and error_reporting

[PHP] Simulating a FORM POST thing (HELP!)

[Georgie Casey]

Rite, when you see a web form, you know you can simulate the submit by
filling in the values in the address field, just like a GET method, and it
usually works the exact same. But how do you do it when one of the fields in
the form is a file upload?!?!?!

For the record, its a GIF file you've to upload. Is there any way to do this
in PHP??

You need to define the type of file you are creating.
Like when you create wml pages with php.

Header("Content-Type: text/javascript");
or summing to that effect.

have a look at www.weberdev.com

I looked through your configuration files and didn't notice any
serious differences between them and my ones. I have PHP 4.2.1/Apache
2.0.36 on WinXP Pro. My register_globals was off. When I made it On
your scipt worked properly. I don't know what the reason. What PHP you
have?

I attached my php.ini. Maybe you can find some important things.
Another one question: does $PHP_SELF give proper value? It must not be
set if register_globals=off. So if $PHP_SELF is set to some value,
then global variables are registered.

And the last question: why do you use global variables? It's much
easier to use superglobal arrays $_POST, $_SERVER, etc. They guarantee
that any values passed to your script won't be mixed.

Windows Bitmap = BMP file
a WBMP is a wireless bitmap image and is designed for display on mobile
phones. A lot of software doesn't understand the format.

You need to use createfrombmp() not createfromwbmp()

[PHP] Problem with Includes and Variables

[Pete Rippe]

Hey, im running Apache 2.0.36, and PHP 4.2.1, and im having problems with my site, 
which relies alot on includes. On each site page, it includes a file called 
"global.php" which contains the path's to the include folder, and various other 
directories needed. After that, it includes files for the site layout, which use 
variables from the global.php file. They all load fine, and in each included file, it 
is correctly processed by php, but for some reason, the variables that worked for 
including the files from global.php, aren't seen in the includes. Kinda get what im 
saying? I cant figure out how to have all the files first included, and then processed 
as one big file, instead of smaller files.

Thanks!

Re: [PHP] ini_set('register_globals',0) doesn't work

[Rasmus Lerdorf]

register_globals affects things that happen before PHP parsing begins, so
by the time you get to your ini_set() it is too late.  So no, that won't
work.  You need to set it in your php.ini, httpd.conf or .htaccess.

[PHP] Validating forms and showing errors

[Victor Boivie]

Hi everybody,

This might be a RTFM or STFW-question, but I haven't found it.

I want to validate a form (in page1.php) to check if the user has entered a
correct email-adress and more, and if he needs to correct some fields, I'd
like to display the form again with all correct values filled in and the
incorrect fields hightlighted.

To make it a bit more difficult I've decided to POST to another file
(post.php) which validates the information and redirects the user (with
Header - Location) to page1.php if he has to correct the errors. If the form
is correctly filled in then he will be redirected to page2.php. This is to
prevent the browser for asking him if he wants to repost data if he hits
'Refresh'. Now I want to know how to pass information from post.php to
page1.php since the form page (page1) needs to know what was incorrect and
what was correct so that it can hightlight the bad fields. I don't want to
stick it in the URL since it would be too ugly, but I do have session
variables I can stick them in. Is this the way to go? Or is there a better
solution?

I guess many of you have fought with this before so I know you can help me
;)

Thanks in advance,
Victor

Hi to all;

Finally i've set-up my AIX server with PHP and oracle support. Thanks for
all who helps me for the configure setup.
Now I have a problem in oracle function regarding the retrieval of entries
in the oracle table. The Ora_Fetch_Into function doesnt work properly to me
or i have  an error in which i dont know. I've written below the code that i
used to test, it doesnt echo the value of $name and $email. My query works
if i've enter it manually with my Oracle server. I really dont know why im
just a newbie with this database(oracle) statement.

Please help us here. Thanks in advance.

";
echo"Full NameEmail Address";
while(Ora_Fetch_Into($cursor,$values)){
$name = $values[0];
$email = $values[1];
echo "$name$email";
}

Any time you end up with two " characters together is a pretty good
indication of where you problem is.

You might try this:

$query = "SELECT * FROM news WHERE ID = '" . $_get['id'] . "'";

Alternately, and depending on what you're doing and why, it might be
more effective to do this:

$idstring = $_get['id'];
$query = "SELECT * FROM news WHERE ID = '$idstring'";

Your choice...

I tend to do this sort of thing using includes and a single page.  If
it's the first time being loaded (no post data) then just display the
form.  If it's been submitted then process the data and decide what to
do from there.  If there are errors, redisplay the form showing errors
that need to be corrected.  If there's no errors, move along to the next
stage in the process.

That's a browser decision based on the existence of post data - in other
words, just because the form posts to a different file doesn't mean that
if you hit reload it won't re-post the data.

There are ways to do it - cookies or hidden forms spring to mind - but
first it's worth working out if the effort is worth it.  It won't
prevent a page refresh from re-posting data (although you could test for
that in your php and deal with it accordingly).

A lot of people have answered this already, but just for a little more 
clarification, consider this: 

The reason the computer requires you to surround a string with quotes is 
so that it knows where the string begins and ends.

If you put quotes in the middle of the string, it thinks those mark the 
end; why would it think otherwise, since that's what quotes are for.

So people have provided you with various solutions for this. Each of them 
involve in some way indicating more specifically what's going on. Either 
you use a different kind of quotes (if you started the string with single 
quotes, it will let you put double quotes inside it without getting 
confused, and vice versa), or you use the backslash character before 
internal quotes. Backslash is the "escape" character which in this case 
tells the parser to ignore the special meaning of the quote that follows. 
So your line could have been written in any of the following ways:

  $query = "select * from news WHERE id = '{$_get['id']}'";
  $query = "select * from news WHERE id = \"{$_get['id']}\"";
  $query = 'select * from news WHERE id = "' . $_get['id'] . '"';

I'll take your word for it :) 

In my early encounters with php I had problems with multiple queries on a 
single page which were apparently solved by using more than one link-id. Ever 
since, I've been using more than one link-id when I have nesting or 
'over-lapping' queries.

Not sure what you're trying to do. If you're trying to extract all the values 
in $_POST so that they're available in the global scope then try:

  foreach($_POST as $key => $value)
$GLOBALS[$key] = $value;
  }

also look at extract().

Check the return values from your ora_logon, ora_open, ora_parse, and

Re: [PHP] Ora_Fetch_Into function problem

[Michael P. Carel]

thanks miguel but i've already checked it, i've included return values
checking where it stop. Here's my full source test script.
There where no Ora_Error_Code returned.

";
exit;
}
$cursor= Ora_Open($connection);
if($cursor==false){
echo Ora_ErrorCode($connection).":". Ora_Error($connection)."";
exit;
}
$query = "select * from mikecarel";
//$query = "select table_name from all_tables";
$result = Ora_Parse($cursor,$query);
if($result==false){
echo Ora_ErrorCode($connection).":". Ora_Error($connection)."";
exit;
}
$result=Ora_Exec($cursor);
if($result==false){
echo Ora_ErrorCode($connection).":". Ora_Error($connection)."";
exit;
}
echo"";
echo"Full NameEmail Address";
//$values=array(mike, tess);
while(Ora_Fetch_Into($cursor,$values)){
$name = $values[0];
$email = $values[1];
echo "$name$email";
echo "$email";
print($name);
$result =1;
}
if(!$result==1) print("no result");
echo"";

ora_close($cursor);
ora_logoff($connection);
?>

[PHP] Re: Ora_Fetch_Into function problem

[Michael Virnstein]

have you tried compiling php with oci again,
by installing the Oracle8i Client libraries?
Should work as far as i have read.
The oci interface is much better than the ora
interface. And I am not familiar with the
ora functions, only used to oci.
