[PHP] Text File open and display

2003-03-03 Thread Chris Blake
Greetings learned PHP(eople),

There have been a number of postings recently on opening and reading
files, and whilst I have read `em all I fail to make sense of it all.

Basicaly...I have a text file with entries in it...I wish to display the
contents of this file line by line in an HTML table :
At present all I get is a table with 1 row and all the text in it in a
large messy blob.
=



  '."\n";
   echo '   File Entries'."\n";
   echo ' '."\n"."\n";
   //
   //For each line in the file
   // while (fpassthru($handle));
   //{
   //Print them out to Table-
   echo ''."\n";
   echo '   ';
   echo fpassthru($handle);
   echo ''. "\n";
   //}
   echo '';
   //fclose($handle);
  
  ?>
  
  
  
=
I have commented out those lines which fail and am stuck as to what the
correct syntax should be. I have read up on nl2br,fgets and other posts
on php.net, but ..harump

Thanks

You need to eval your code (not "exec"):
eval($contents);

Note that $contents need to be valid PHP for eval(). It must not start with

You get a file to an array of lines with file().

Example:
 "row 1";
// [1] => "row 2";
// [2] => "row 3";
// .

for ($i = 0; $i < count($myFile); $i++)
{
print "Row ".($i+1).": ".$myFile[$i];
};
?>

[PHP] php as php3 perhaps with htaccess

2003-03-03 Thread Cranky
Hello,
I have a website and all my files are *.php3

I would like to change the extensions of all files to *.php

My problem is for the search engine and links to my site.
Because the site is well referenced in the search engine with files liek
*.php3

So if I rename all files in .php, the links in the search engine will be
broken

So I would like to know if there is a way perhaps with a .htaccess file to
say that the file .php3 must be redirect to the same file but in *.php

So when I try to access this page :
http://www.my-site.com/page.php3?param=value

I will access this page :
http://www.my-site.com/page.php?param=value

Thanks a lot

Are you not allowed, according to US laws, to encrypt files using something
like the Zend Encoder, if that was a feature?
No, it was more of a joke :)  The reason the Zend Encoder does not use 
encryption is that it would be quite useless, as the file would have to be 
decrypted when it's loaded.  It would then be relatively easy for a 
malicious hacker to take a look at the decrypted data.
Instead, the contents of encoded files is simply not very meaningful to 
anything but the Zend Engine and Optimizer, so even if you get a hold of 
the data, you would still be far away from the source code.

So, an encoded script does not decode to plain text and then execute?
It certainly does not.  There are products in the market in which the data 
does get restored to the original plain text in runtime, but they are 
inherently insecure.  With Zend encoded files, the original plain text is 
gone for good.

>3. Zend Encoder is the most secure way to deliver php code. That said, no
protection scheme is absolutely 100% protected.
What is the acual difference between Zend Encoder and say ioncube
(http://www.ioncube.com), security-wise?
I'm not familiar with the internals of the ioncube products, so I can't 
really answer that.  I do know Zend pretty well, and nobody knows the 
engine as well as the ones who wrote it, so I stand behind Brad's statement :)

If you have the ability to use mod-rewrite, you can do

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  ^.*\.php3.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.php3(.*)$  $1.php$2 [L]

This can be done either in the general configuration, within ,
or within .

I am using exactly this stuff to allow legacy links to a site that has been
developed in Python (*.py) to access the same URLs as PHP files.

Sounds as if there was some problem in the extensions initialization code.
I'd try to put some debugging in there (write to a file, flush and close
it) so you can see how far your extension executes until the segfault.

But I can not use the mod-rewrite because my site is on a shared hosting.

Ask your sysadmin to install the mod-rewrite for your site to the

Greetings,

Th command 

echo gethostbyaddr("ip.number.inserted.here"); 

returns the name of the server when it`s an internet address.
Is there a similar command that will return host names on a local

I tried using the above command putting in a LAN address, but it just
returned the IP address.

This isn't a PHP issue, this is a DNS issue. "gethostbyaddr" uses DNS
resolution to convert the IP address into its named equivelant... if no
name is found, it will return the IP address again.

The only way to get the reverse DNS for a private (LAN) IP address is to
use a DNS server which has those IPs registered. In short, you have to run
your own domain name server and apply the entries in there.

There are other, OS independant, ways of adding these lookups (eg:
/etc/hosts on Unix %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\hosts.pam (I think) on Windows
2000+) but you will have to investigate those yourself.

Extension like in binary that is either an integral part of PHP or a
loadable module.

You need to escape the quotes inside the string, or use single quotes to
define it. Either this:

  echo "Please enter other login id:";
  ^^^^  ^^
^^
  note escaped quotes

Or this:

  echo 'Please enter other login id:';

Hi,

No, you need to use Javascript's alert() function. PHP is server-side only.

> 2) I would like to know the max. number of records or max. space
> a database (mentioned below) can provide.

Oracle, MySQL and SQL Server are limited only by the space available on the
server. Access has a defined limit, but it's quite large (2 gigs, I think),
and it chokes when you have more than 5 connections open.

I would *strongly* advise you not to use Access for a website - give MySQL
or Postgres a go, they both beat it hands down. Access is a desktop
database, not a server - it's great for holding your CD collection, but
that's about it :-)

Answer to number 1:
I'm sure you could, but why would you want to when Javascript is more suited 
for this type of processing.  If you don't know javascript google for some 
tutorials or for alert boxes, and I'm sure you will find plenty of examples.

for #2: 
For Mysql check this:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Table_size.html
And for the others, look around, that information should not be too hard to 
find.

[PHP] eval help

2003-03-03 Thread neko
Hi guys,

My current task involves passing a string into a function that is able to
reference variables defined within that function for the final output. The
idea is that a function iterates through objects and eval's the string so
that the objects data (name etc) is substituted in the string.

Currently I have something like this:

$someVar = "testing for node - wootah, \$evalTestArr[TAG_PAGENAME]"


then in some other function that gets passed this string
...

$evalTestArr[TAG_PAGENAME] = "hello anna marie gooberfish!";
$str = $someVar;
eval("\$str=\"$str\";");

if I echo it out, the substitution is not done.

any thoughts? I'm reading through
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eval.php but yet to be inspired.

Your almost there... just remember one very simple rule - if in doubt,
break out. Meaning, if you're having variable resolution issues, then just
break out of the string. Apply the following change to have happy dreams:

From:
> $str3 = "Hello, $arr2['name']";

To:

[PHP] MySQL, Apache and UPDATE, INSERT and DELETE

2003-03-03 Thread Frans Bakker
Hello friends,

Thanks for the help with the file upload, that has been solved by simply
setting the write permissions on the corresponding directories.

Another thing: I have developed my PHP application on a Windows machine with
a MySQL server database. However, it was meant for a Linux server running
Apache.

Now it turns out that the results of SQL statements  including UPDATE,
DELETE or INSERT are not shown on the PHP page. To say it in another way: I
have a form which after submitting performs an UPDATE, INSERT or DELETE, and
I don't see their effects on the database on the results page.

I have already checked that the mentioned database operations are carried
out, but it is as if the pages are cashed in someway or that the server does
not allow database updates to be shown on the browser.

What phenomenon is this? I know that Apache has some peculiarities which has
to do with setting security. I am not an expert in Apache, not to say I am a
complete nitwit in Apache.

Also, my script works perfectly on my Windows machine.

Can somebody help me out please?

Thank you,
FRANS BAKKER

I don't see why you would want to export data to MySQL first. PHP has a built 
in support for Oracle and OCI8, and it works really well. I've been doing a 
lot of developement using PHP + Oracle. You lose some SQL capability that are 
native to Oracle if you export from Oracle to Mysql.

ok - my latest in the eval saga is this:

I want to be able to eval a function call anywhere in the string supplied,
and the function call is not in scope when the string is defined.

So

-- somewhere in my code I wanted something like this:

$string = "testing nodename: \$node->getName()
pagename:\$nodePageTags[".TAG_PAGENAME."]";

-- where the code is evaled eventually, there is a $node object defined, so
the function call should work. Of course, that currently does not work :)

Pay attention to the error messages. This one explains exactly what you're
doing wrong, if only you'd read it.

You're trying to save your session files into your /tmp directory, which
only exists on unix-based systems. You can fix this by editing your php.ini
(specifically the session.save_path directive), but it's probably a good
idea to RTFM as well.

Your php.ini still has the default /tmp session save path which is OK on
Unix but squawks on Win32. So you will need to reset the directive
session.save_path to c:\temp or any other valid scratch directory on your
windows machine you will probably also need to bounce IIS as well to
pick up the new settings if your running as an ISAPI module

The second and third errors are a knock-on effect of the 1st problem so fix
the bad session temp directory and they will probably disappear.

Re: [PHP] Automatic Table Creation

Awlad,

I would guess you are trying to create an HTML table to display the 
records.

$Row = The results returned from. mysql_fetch_array().

$Total = count($Row);

$TotalInEachRow = round(($Total/3));

if (($TotalInEachRow * 3) < $Total) {
$TotalInEachRow ++; // Planning for the Remainder items.
}
$HTML = ""; // HTML string that holds the table

$ColumnCount = 0; // For knowing the Number of Columns.

for ($C=0; $C<$Total; $C++) {
if ($ColumnCount  == 0) {
$HTML .= "";
}
$HTML .= "".$Row[$C]["DatabaseFeildName"]."":
$ColumnCount ++;
if ($ColumnCount == 3) {
$HTML ."";
$ColumnCount = 0;
}
}
if ($ColumnCount > 0) {
for ($C=$ColumnCount; $C<=3; $C++) {
$HTML .= " ";
}
$HTML .= "";
}
$HTML .= "":

That should do it for you. I typed this code directly into the email so 
be forwarned about copy and pasting it.

Hope this helped.

Do you have a /tmp folder on your computer? Probably not, so that's why PHP
is throwing a warning, because it can't write to a directory that doesn't
exist.

These are just by-products of the first error.

Set your session.save_path setting in php.ini to a folder that IIS can write
to.

No, since sessions is usually just a cookie that points to somewhere with
more data...

The easiest thing would be to use PHP to dynamically re-write the page so
both the image and link reference the same "thing".  You can use an iframe
to do this pretty easily...

[PHP] MySQL, Apache, SELECT, UPDATE etc. 2

2003-03-03 Thread Frans Bakker
Hello,

In addition to my previous message the following:

I have developed a PHP application on a Windows machine with a MySQL server
database. However, it was meant for a Linux server running Apache, where it
runs now.

After checking with the server administrator it turns out that pages with
SELECT statements are executed normally, while UPDATE, DELETE and INSERT
statements are ignored.

Contrarily to my previous message on this problem, it is not a cache problem
or anything like that: the server simply doesn't accept UPDATE, DELETE and
INSERT statements, though the server administrator assures me to have given
the right permissions on the database.

Is there anybody who can tell me what is wrong here?

Kind regards,
FRANS BAKKER

Sorry, but I am unaware of this function.  It is not a native function to
php, maybe it is a custom function that is part of a library that you are
using.  You would have to contact them for documentation on thier functions.

Re: [PHP] Automatic Table Creation

2003-03-03 Thread 1LT John W. Holmes
The easiest way would be nested tables. Your three "columns" would each have
a nested table within them where you loop through 1/3 of the results. Some
simple math functions and the result of mysql_num_results() should tell you
how many to loop through in each table.


  

  

aaab
  


  
bbba

  


  
ccca

I have a mysql table containing about 100 record, alphabetically ordered.

How would i display them in browser in a 3 columns, doesn't matter how long
the rows is as the number of records will grow in the database table.

the records should be in alphabetically order, for example:

aaa bbbaccca
aab cccb
aac bbbc
aad bbbdcccd

any idea anyone?

[PHP] Session variable under PHP 4.0.6

2003-03-03 Thread Henry Grech-Cini
Hi All,

I'm having a problem with session variables under PHP 4.0.6 on a secure
server. I ran phpinfo and have attached the resulting page after the main
body of this message.

My test code looks like this

Filename: index.php

Page Start --


click here to go to the next page

Page End --


Next file
Filename: index2.php

Page Start --



Page End --


Suffice to say it doesn't work. The first page displays

"click here to go to the next page"


as expected. However clicking on the link takes you to index2.php and the
following is displayed:


"Array ( ) --><--"


Namely that the session variable called "variable" is not set in the
session.


I have run the exact same code on a machine running PHP 4.2.3 (non secure
servers) and it works perfectly! And outputs:

"Array ( [variable] => the variables value ) -->the variables value<--"

Exactly as required!!



I hope that you can help, since I am getting frustrated after 4 days trying
to fix this problem.

Henry

RE: [PHP] Session variable under PHP 4.0.6

2003-03-03 Thread Johnson, Kirk
In the first file, replace this line:

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['variable']="the variables value";

with these two lines:

$variable = "the variables value";
session_register('variable');

This is because 'register_globals' is enabled in the php.ini file.

Do you have a /tmp folder on your computer? Probably not, so that's why PHP
is throwing a warning, because it can't write to a directory that doesn't
exist.

These are just by-products of the first error.

Set your session.save_path setting in php.ini to a folder that IIS can write
to.

[PHP] where do you recommend I put useful code for people to use?

2003-03-03 Thread Henry Grech-Cini
Hi All,

I've written some javascript that serializes javascript variables so that
they can be sent to PHP and unserialized there. Is this silly thing to have
done? i.e. is it already done or superfluous for some reason? Or, if it is
not, where would I put the code to share it with others. Thing is that
although its meant for use with PHP it is javascript so I'm not sure where
to post it.

you do that by making a css style for the button, plenty of examples on the

Yes, it's possible. Search google for CSS, this has nothing to do with PHP.

[PHP] Still no luck running a PHPCLI script from CRON

2003-03-03 Thread Justin Michael Couto
Ok, by looking at my cron logs it looks like cron is trying to run my
PHP CLI script.  However, it is not running it.  I only have one line of
code that isn't commented out and the line simply sends me an email
using the PHP mail() function. 

Tom suggested that maybe the script is running, but cron may simply not
be able to send email VIA the PHP function.  I am not sure whether or
not this may be true, all I know is that I can't run any PHP script from
cron.  The only reason I am trying to have cron send me an email is to
check to see if cron was running my PHP script.  My script is for batch
order processing and it hasn't been processing my orders.  After
immediately realizing this I added the mail() function to see if the
script was running.  I got no email.  I then eliminated the script down
to just the mail() function be commenting out my batch order processing
code.  It still didn't run.  

Here is my cron log:

Mar  3 09:05:00 prod /usr/sbin/cron[3124]: (user) CMD
(/path/to/cron_script.file)

Mar  3 09:06:00 prod /usr/sbin/cron[3134]: (user) CMD
(/path/to/cron_script.file)

Mar  3 09:07:00 prod /usr/sbin/cron[3141]: (user) CMD
(/path/to/cron_script.file)

Mar  3 09:08:00 prod /usr/sbin/cron[3148]: (user) CMD
(/path/to/cron_script.file)

I have tried running this as "user" and as "root".  I get the same
results with both.  Again, my PHP script runs fine if I run it by hand
from the command line via ./cron_script.file  Anymore help on this issue
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again

Here's a URL for the second edition: http://www.kitebird.com/mysql-book/

It discusses what's new in this edition. Paul DuBois is also very 
active on the MySQL mailing lists so your question would probably get a 
more detailed answer there. Also, in all likelihood, the first edition 
may not even be available anymore.

One thing to keep in mind when working with crontab is environmental
variables. As in, Cron has none. You have to set any you want in your
crontab, or your called scripts. For example, use full paths.

You shouldnt have to call a shell before calling the php cli. Here is an
example script for you to test. My php binary is in /usr/local/bin/php, my
script is /usr/local/crontab-scripts/wibble.php and the file I am writing
to is in /tmp/wibble.output

This is what wibble looks like [chmoded to 755, owned by the user of the
crontab]:

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q


and the crontab line I have is:

* * * * /usr/local/contab-scripts/wibble.php

and you can see the output of it running every minute:

tail -f /tmp/wibble.output

Works fine for me ... try it

Re: [PHP] Session variable under PHP 4.0.6

Thanks that works in my testing example. But why? The manual says:

Caution
If you are using $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS), do not use
session_register(), session_is_registered() and session_unregister().

But in index2.php I am using $HTTP_SESSION_VARS and it works?!

Need a bit of clarification since my actual app still doesn't work!

RE: [PHP] Session variable under PHP 4.0.6

2003-03-03 Thread Johnson, Kirk
That Caution message is not the full story, read some more on
"register_globals".

If register_globals is "On" in php.ini, then do the following:

- use session_register() to create your session variables;
- use the global variable to access the variable, not the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS
array.

Example:

$myVar = 'test';
session_register('myVar');
$myVar = 'some new value';
print $myVar;

Note: the value of $myVar is what is stored to the session at the end of the
script. And, since it is stored after the script ends, its value is not
available via $HTTP_SESSION_VARS[] until the next page.

If register_globals is "Off" in php.ini, then do the following:

- do not use session_register(), etc.
- use $HTTP_SESSION_VARS for all accesses.

Example:

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myVar'] = 'test';
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myVar'] = 'some new value';
print $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['myVar'];

Re: [PHP] Keeping existing data in textarea's

2003-03-03 Thread Jonathan Pitcher
It is really easy to stop Javascript from going to the next page.

To pop open the alert box I am assuming you call a javascript function.



Usually you would do onclick="VerifyForm(this.form)"

but by changing it to:
onclick="return VerifyForm(this.form)"
You tell javascript to go to the page only if you return true.

function VerifyForm(form) {
if (Values == true) {
return true;
} else {
alert();
return false;
}
}
With any browser 5.0 or older this will work.

Now, with PHP you need to pass the information back to the form either 
through a URL or in session variables.

I hope this helps some,

Micro,

Are you doing your error checking with Javascript or PHP.  Makes a big

Well, when they submit the form, whatever they typed is going to be in
$_POST['name_of_textarea'], right? (or $_GET...)

To put that value back into a textarea, do something like this:



I'll assume you use the same form for entering if there is an error. the
first time this form is displayed, $_POST['whatever'] will not be set, so
the  will be blank. After it's submitted, then the value will be
filled back in.

[PHP] processing pop3 inbox

2003-03-03 Thread Henry Grech-Cini
Hi All,

I need to process the inbox. Any pointers, I don't use Perl and would like
to use PHP. Also I do not have PHP compiled for a comand line so I'll
probably use a crontab and unix text based web browser to invoke the PHP
page to process the inbox.

TIA Any help much appreciated.

[PHP] ICQ # validation

[PHP] max_execution_time and set_time_limit() problem.

2003-03-03 Thread Eric Wood
I'm uploading a large file through my web page and after 30 seconds, the
fails with an error.   I bumbed the max_execution_time parameter in
/etc/php.ini to 600 seconds and restarted apache.  Still errors at 30
seconds.  I added set_time_limit(600); to various place in my file upload
handling script... still errors at 30 seconds.

Is this just a good 'ol bug in my Redhat 7.3 version of PHP?:

$ rpm -q php
php-4.1.2-7.3.6


Thanks,

Re: [PHP] ICQ # validation

2003-03-03 Thread 1LT John W. Holmes
Use single quotes around your pattern.

if(ereg('^[0-9]{7,9}$',...

With the double quotes, PHP is probably seeing the $ and looking for a
variable, even though it's at the end of the string.

if (ereg ("^[0-9]{7,9}$", "2264532680")) {
print ("a-okay!");
} else {
print ("error msg");
}

fails. I suspect you're not grabbing the variable from the environment
correctly.

What kind of news? Paid or unpaid? You could try searching for RSS

Integration is pretty simple - a cron job that grabs the feed every n

[PHP] Bitwise operator question

2003-03-03 Thread Dan Sabo
Hi,

I'm reading the description of Bitwise Operators on page 81 of "Professional
PHP 4", the Wrox book.  In the highlighted example on that page, the line of
code...

$user_permissions = CREATE_RECORDS | ALTER_RECORDS;

the description in the book says that this line is building a set of user
permissions out of the previously created constants with the OR operator (I
understand what OR means).  The value of $user_permissions is set to either
1 or 4, which is in fact 5 (0101).  But how is this single line doing that?
The explanation was cryptic (to me).

[PHP] Re: Bitwise operator question

2003-03-03 Thread Philip Hallstrom
Here's how I think about it...

CREATE_RECORDS = 1 in decimal and 0001 in binary.
ALTER_RECORDS = 4 in decimal and 0101 in binary.

that line returns a binary string where *any* of the bits are 1, so line
them up:

   0001
|  0101
=  0101

which is 5.

[PHP] All Code Executing Even After header() Redirect

2003-03-03 Thread Monty
At the top of every page in my site I have a snippet of code that
authenticates the user by checking for valid SESSION vars and their
contents. If they don't, they are redirected with a header() statement to a
log-in page like this:

include_once("function_library.php");
session_start();

if (!LoggedIn()) {  // If not logged in, take to Login page.
header("Location: /login.php");
}

LogAccess($_SESSION['user']);  // This function logs user's access.


I noticed that the LogAccess() function I have after the header() redirect
is executing, even if the user is not logged in and is redirected to the
Log-In page. I did confirm that the LoggedIn() custom function is working
properly and returning the right value.

I thought the code below the header() redirect would not actually be
executed unless the user was logged in and allowed to proceed. Is this how
PHP is supposed to work? Is there any way to prevent the script from
executing below a certain point if the user is not logged in?

Thanks,

Monty
