Re: [PHP] svg graphics and php : is it possible
Perhaps this relates to the original question as an additional
feature.
What would be the best way to offer SVG content from the
main opening page? Since SVG requires a browser that has
the approprite plugin or a dedicated browser, is it better
to create a hyperlink or maybe have the SVG capability
detected and content redirected automatically.
Another question. What is the best and lightest way
to offer SVG content from the server side? Java seems
real slow and resource hungry at sites I visit that use
it.

[PHP] Re: synchronizing php functions
Well I have a system that people can login to, and I want to produce an array (or something of the sort) that holds who is logged in so that I can monitor it. The problem is that sessions are local to the clients machine so if I tried to put this information in the session then the only information that I would get back is the people that are logged in on my machine, not the server (Please tell me if I wrong in what I say here). Therefore I need to be able to but this information in the session and have it available to all sessions (sort of like the way static variables in Java belong to the class and not the individual objects that are created from that class). So if you undersatnd what I'm trying to do here and know of a way to do it I would love to here it.

[PHP] $this in an XML data handler ... in a class
Here's a brain-bender ... At least it is for me at the moment. : )
When I use an XML parser inside a class, the xml_*_handler functions aren't
recognizing "$this->" variables. I can kind of see why ... But would like it
to work anyway. : )
Here's an example:
class Blah
{
var $xmlparser;
var $current_element;
// ...
function _parseXML($data)
{
$this->xmlparser = xml_parser_create();
xml_set_element_handler(
$this->xmlparser,
array($this,"_xml_start_element"),
array($this,"_xml_end_element"));
xml_set_character_data_handler(
$this->xmlparser,
array($this,"_xml_character_data"));
xml_parse($this->xmlparser, $data);
xml_parser_free($this->xmlparser);
}
function _xml_start_element($p, $e_name, $e_attributes)
{
$this->current_element = $e_name;
}
function _xml_end_element($p, $e_name)
{
// ...
}
function _xml_character_data($p, $data)
{
echo "element is: ".$this->current_element."\n";
echo "data is: $data\n";
}
} // end of class Blah
When this XML parser gets called from within the Blah class, the "element
is:" portion of _xml_character_data comes out blank!
This sort of makes sense, because the callback functions are "children" of
the xml_parser_create "parent" ... But should that make the children
ignorant of the "grandparent" variables referred to by $this->varname?
I hope this makes sense ... Has anyone else encountered this sort of
problem? I'm an old hat at PHP, but am relatively new to both XML parsing
and writing my own classes.
Thanks,
Clay

Actually Richard, I'll have to disagree. I replied to Chris Shiflett
privately but perhaps I should cc my reply to the group (it is rather
lengthy & I hate cluttering mailboxes). The long and the short of it is
that, after analysing the data returned to the browser from both ASP and
PHP, there is a difference. Essentially, the redirect headers are identical
(including the status code), but ASP appends the rest of the header
including the "Set-Cookie" header and the Cache requirements. While some of
this data is no doubt redundant it allows the the browser to process the
cookie correctly. I tested this on numerous different browsers (IE,
Netscape, Opera, Mozilla and NeoPlanet) and in all cases without exception,
the ASP script worked and the PHP didn't.
Unless returning all the headers as ASP does totally deviates from the HTML
protocol specification, why not make PHP a more well-rounded product and
include this functionality? Just because using "goto" is bad programming
practice and should be avoided (like the plague!), it has stopped it being
included in most decent languages...
> Re-design and re-factor your code so you don't need to re-direct. :-)
Please understand that I am not defending ASP in any way - I am merely
pointing out that there *is* a difference in the way that the two languages
process the pages. Frankly, I believe that ASP is very poor as scripting
languages go and have spent 3 months motivating a move to PHP. I am not
however that proficient in PHP yet (although I already know more PHP than
ASP) and cannot afford the time it would require to "re-design and
re-factor" all of my code to avoid using redirects and accomodate PHP
idiosyncrasies.
In my mind, the migration from one scripting language to another should
really be a case of changing language syntax. It took three hours to convert
all my code from ASP-based to PHP-based scripting. If PHP wants to gain
market share, this is the kind of bonus a developer is looking for.

I agree 100%. There is no excuse for poor programming, and no substitute for
good programming. But, that comes with experience in the language and as one
learns the ins and outs of the environment one can improve one's code. And,
since I don't do anything but sleep between 3am and 6am, I may just
redevelop the legacy code into a better solution.. :)

does not work. I have made sure that the output of the exec() is all on one

anyone aware of any problems with exec() that may be causing this behavior?

Re: [PHP] How do I split an alphabetical list (array) into A-Mand N-Z?
Try using a regular expression to go through each of the array elements, sending to one array if the first letter is [a-mA-M], to another if the first letter is [n-zN-Z]. If you're not searching by first letter in the array elements, and they are comma-delimited name sets, do it that way.

[PHP] Compiling PHP with Java support on a virtual server
Hi all, I have compiled PHP with Java support using the option ./configure --with-prefix="path to lib directory" --with-java="jdk path" on a virtual server. There is no problem with compilation. During compilation it gives Checking for Java Support yes . I made modifications to the php.ini file also. but when I tried a test php script , I was not able to see anything related to java in the output file. As the previous option was not working , we tried setting JAVA_HOME to jdk_path and used the option ./configure --with-prefix="path to lib directory" --with-java(without the jdkpath) . Even not I was not able to get anything related to Java. phpinfo() gives me the configure option as ./configure --with-prefix="path to lib directory" --with-java="jdk path" and not ./configure --with-prefix="path to lib directory" --with-java . Am I doing anything wrong ? Then we removed all PHP related files for usr/local/bin and usr/local/lib and compiled PHP again. Even now we were not able to get that working ... what are the steps to be followed to install PHP with Java support on a virtual server??? previously we had installed the same version of PHP on our local m/c and everything was working fine. The only difference is I am not using --with-prefix option when compiling on my local m/c . we don't have access to /usr/local/lib of the virtual server m/c and so we cannot put our ini file in /usr/local/lib.

Stick in some echo statements at strategic points in the loops to find out

It's getting stuck because you're moving the goalposts. It's a very bad idea to
base a loop on a variable that is changed within the loop. I suggest you loop
through one string while building a second string as the return value.
On the other hand, I seem to remember seeing a regex posted on this list
recently that did exactly this. I suggest you search the archives for it
because it would save you a lot of hassle.

Justin! That's a great idea. No one ever mentioned that to me before
(and I've been on and off this list for months). Or actually, I think
YOU mentioned it once but I didn't understand it.
So let me ask: do you have one giant script that validates all data,
depending on the variables sent to it? Or do you have a "formcheck"
script for each individual form?
This is a great way to stop someone from hitting refresh and
resubmitting their POST data accidentally, since you've got that GET
flag which basically says "do not process this form!" It's not
-secure-, since anyone can remove this flag (even if you used POST), but
it will work for Joe User to stop him from accidentally resubmitting.

[PHP] Security: PHP: how to "harden" PHP scripts?
I'm writing my first commercial site and of course I am thinking about security. I'm worried about someone using a flaw in my PHP script logic to access information they shouldn't. I've read the PHP books I have and Googled around but can't quite find specific answers to my questions about PHP and security. In general how does one go about hardening a PHP script. i.e. making it as "hacker-proof" as possible. General things like: - verifying user inputted data - not putting clear-text passwords in php scripts - use "safe-mode"? And specifically, what are some things one can do?

Re: [PHP] addslahes and magic quote woes
Try stripslashes() before addslashes(), to ensure that it doesn't already contain slashes.

This has been discussed on the list before, and even I think just last week (so check the archives, using "server variables asp" as your search criteria). Some theories suggest that it would entail a lot of overhead, unless you only have a few users to keep track of simultaneously. Possible suggestions are 1) if the data doesn't change, put it into an includefile 2) if the data is dynamic, be clever and implement this yourself with database-managed persistence (but beware the overhead).

Awww Nut! I post a reply a while ago and probably accidenly delete it
instead of sending it. Dang! I hate this MS-Outlook software! Anyway! I"m
not going to start over, so I'll be brief!
1) Check the file path, like "/usr/local/bin/curl" instead of "curl" as an
example. Sometime environment variable couldn't be access that way.
2) I had that problem with different script, so I use
"putenv("PATH=/usr/bin:");" so I can get the modem to work.

Even easier, though maybe requiring a tiny bit extra memory to deal with
the array:
$arr = array();
foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) {
$arr[] = $key . '=' . $val;

Turn off magic_quotes and do addslashes() explicitly every time you do a database insert. Then make sure you always stripslash() data returned from a database query. magic_quotes is convenient for newbies, but after a while you'll find it only trips you up, as you've discovered.

Re[2]: [PHP] addslahes and magic quote woes
Hello Jean-Christian, The answer is NO NO NO. At the beginning you have talked about security. You have to realize that there is no 100% protection against hackers. Using strip/addslashes will help you to filter some user input not all. :) So try to pick one way and go that way. if magic quotes are turned on you want need addslashes if they are off you will need them.

Nothing's 100%, of course. It will make sure that your strings are treated properly, but slashes don't do anything for integers. If you have a query like: UPDATE admin SET something = 'this' where user_id = $user_id Then using addslashes doesn't help you at all because $user_id doesn't have quotes around it. Since it's supposed to be an integer, it shouldn't have quotes, but you need to validate that $user_id is indeed an integer without any other data in it, otherwise you're open to SQL attacks. Bottom line, validate everything from the user. POST, GET, COOKIE, etc... If it's supposed to be a number, make it a number with (int). If it's supposed to be a string, make sure it's had addslashes() applies to it, either through magic_quotes or manually...etc, etc, etc... ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Make sure you define $str = ""; before it enters the loop, othewise you'll
throw some warnings if your error reporting level is set high. It's because
$str is undefined on the first loop, yet your adding something to it.

RE: [PHP] cURL in an exec() . more
OK, here is where I am (between handling other pre-holiday/long weekend
processese here);
I have the PHP script create a shell script containing the needed code for
the cURL process. Of course the shell script will execute from the command
line with me as 'root'. But the exec() that calls the shell script will not
execute the script because of improper permissions. (Has to do with the
permissions on the topmost directory for where the file lives, changing that
could be dangerous from a security standpoint).
So I have tried to change those (I am on a Linux box) via the PHP, no luck.
It will let me chmod the shell script via the PHP script. So I tried to move
the script to /usr/local/bin;
rename("getlist.sh", "/usr/local/bin/getlist.sh"); Permission denied
exec("mv getlist.sh /usr/local/bin/getlist.sh"); Permissiion denied
exec("cp getlist.sh /usr/local/bin/getlist.sh"); Permissiion denied
I am looking into posix_setuid() to change the permissions for the time
needed, but I've a feeling, after a couple of tests, that this is not going
to be the way to do this either.
I wish permissions in Linux were more straigtforward. Anyone have an idea
how to do this with opening the server wide? Thanks for all your help.

Depending on your SQL query, and assuming that you have checked for more than one row before coding accordingly, then the answer is to loop through your results using a combination of while and the mysql_fetch_array function.

No.
Think about what {add|strip}slashes() does. It simply adds slashes to
strings, and strips them from strings, depending on certain rules (like
the location of apostrophes or other special characters in those
strings).
There are far more ways for malicious users to insert their own input
than I even know of, let alone know how to handle.
Consider using add/strip a requirement, not a security precaution.

a command php is running with apaches permissions. So apache needs to be
able to run what ever you are trying to run with the exec command.

Re[2]: [PHP] cURL in an exec() . more
Hello Jay,
That wasn't what i recommended you LOL :).
Ok from the beginning PHP executes and writes files with
permissions (like userid and groupid) Webserver is running.
So what i think will be the best way for you to do. Is to create an
executable with the same owner. and then execute it. As for
/usr/local/bin directory it allows to write in it only to root or
superuser. I recommend you to create a user like foo
then in his home directory create a subdirectory like web and chmod it
to 777. and use it as an output for the script. Got an idea?
Also you always can use /tmp directory :)

I haven't used DW Mx myself, I don't really like WYSIWYGs. But the way
to do it is use a while loop.
// $db = your connection parameters
// $sql = your query
if (!$result = mysql_query($sql, $db)) {
die('The query failed for some reason');
}
// this part goes through all the data in $result
// and does something with that data on each iteration
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row_RsSingStanDailybb['DailyBB'];

Re: [PHP] cURL in an exec() . more
Ah! I know what you're feeling about Linux. I had that problem using PHP
and text editing software (for programming) with Caldera, like ftp timeout,
security, file path, etc. It become too much for me, so I junked it and
went back to AIX. I haven't tried it on Red Hat but I can easily turned off
hte ftp timeout, etc. from there. Haven't tried PHP stuffs on Red Hat.

I'm not sure I understand you. You have a php script which creates a
shell-script. Then you have a php script which exec('shell-script')? Assuming
that the php script is run by the same user throughout then I don't see why
it cannot exec your shell-script. Perhaps you can elaborate.

OK ...

so why do you need to move it? Why can't you exec() it where it is?
Try hand writing a script then exec() it from php.

I'm not sure -- is that the directory that you want to be your document root? I doubt it from what you're saying but nobody else has any way of knowing. If you want your document root to be /var/www/html/mysite and it is currently something else, you need to set your httpd.conf file differently. Or perhaps a .htaccess file can be used. (This is assuming you are using Apache.) Go to www.apache.org and read the httpd documentation there for more information about setting up the document root in httpd.conf.

(preferably by a good looking woman) :)
exec was not broken
the permissions don't have to be mucked with
ownership and group can be left alone
this should be stamped on the forehead of each and every PHP developer
USE FULL PATHS!
$bash = "#!/bin/sh";
$curl = "/usr/local/bin/curl -d
\"name=myname&password=mypassword&btnsubmit=submit\" -s -o cdrlist.html
https://theserver.com/download/list.html";;
$sh = fopen("/var/www/htdocs/rcr/getlist.sh", "w+");
fputs($sh, $bash."\n\n");
fputs($sh, $curl);
fclose($sh);
chmod("/var/www/htdocs/rcr/getlist.sh", 0755);
exec("/var/www/htdocs/rcr/getlist.sh");
This solved all of the problems. I did the full paths thing during the
process of elimination, to remove all doubt about the code. This will make
sure that the script can be found and executed.
On another note;
Had I done this with exec and the cURL statement earlier it would have
worked as well. But I think that i am going to keep it this way as it will
hopefully make the code clearer. I will have to write more cURL statements
later in the script and I can then assemble shell scripts as needed.
Thanks for all of your help...

Can we go back to basics?
Does:
echo shell_exec('ls');
work? If not, are you running in safe-mode?

[PHP] Need Help with $_SESSION.
Have not been successful in making this work for 2 days now. I'm focusing
on making the $_SESSION to work on each webpages. The 1st page is the
login. The 2nd page represent the rest of the webpages on a secure side
after logging in. I could use some help in making this work. The $_SESSION
does not work on the 2nd page. Since I can't use the register_global(), so
I don't see how someone claim that it can work without it. I will
appreciate it.
--clip-- (Page 1)
odbc_fetch_into($result,$_SESSION,1);
$salt = strtoupper(md5(uniqid(rand(;
session_id($salt);
session_start();
header("Location: https://test.whatever/index.php?".SID);
--clip-- (Page 2)
print_r($_COOKIE);
print_r($_SESSION);
--clip--
Thanks!
