RE: [PHP] a question, need an answer

2003-06-22 Thread PHP4 Emailer
I could be wrong here, but from my experiences with sessions is that your
first session_start()
is assigning the value of 'arma2' to the $_SESSION['eventid'] variable,
whereas the second one you are making the 'arama2' variable a global session
variable, so as to whatever it's value is on the page can be called from
subsequent pages like post would do with a form script after a user hits
submit.

I'm still learning PHP, so I could be way off, but that's how it's been
working for me. *Shrugs*

Good Luck

PS, from the http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-register.php
page, you might want to read that because your second session call won't
work with register globals is disabled but $_SESSION array will.  :)

Both accomplish the same thing, except how you are using it might not be 
what you expect.

$_SESSION['eventid'] = 'arma2'; 
will assign the string "arma2" to $_SESSION['eventid'] (obviously).

session_register('arama2');
will make the variable $arma2 a session variable.  I believe you want 
session_register('eventid')
The session_register way of doing things makes it act a lot like register_globals is on.  It seems like we're trying to move away from this style of coding, so I'd suggest you use the first method with the $_SESSION variable.

[PHP] TIP parsing form row data into variables

2003-06-22 Thread George Pitcher
Hi all,

This might be well known, so apologies if I'm going over old ground - I've
not seen this explained this way.

Last year I did a site using the variable variables method to parse row
data.

Now that I've moved to globals=off, I couldn't get that to work so I tried a
few other options settling for the following:

('howmany' is  the number of form rows on the previous page)

$howmany = $_REQUEST['howmany'];
for ($index = 1; $index < $howmany; $index++){
   $e_id = 'e_id'.$index;
   $e_id = $_REQUEST[$e_id];

Then do something with it.

Hope this helps someone.

George in Oxford

Re: [PHP] TIP parsing form row data into variables

2003-06-22 Thread justin gruenberg
Nothing appears blatently wrong in the code you provided, but it's 4am 
here, so I might be off.

This comes to my mind:
1.  $_REQUEST was available from PHP 4.1.0 and later, are you using 
somthing before that?
2.  I assume you're doing somthing with $e_id within your loop, or else 
you're just resetting the contents of it.
3.  You might want to try print_r($_REQUEST) to see if it contains what 
you think it contains.

[PHP] strong authentication for a lamp-system

2003-06-22 Thread Daniel Struck
Hello,


I am thinking of setting up strong authentication for a lamp-system based on 
smart-cards:
First authenticate the user with a two-way authentication with apache (openssl). I 
hope I can put the client certificat on a smartcard. Then read the client certificate 
within php from an apache environment variable.

Has someone already set up such a system and used it successfully in praxis?


Best regards,
Daniel

I think you mean:

$_SESSION['eventid'] = 'arma2';

vs

$eventid = 'arma2';
session_register('eventid');

I'd advise the first, unless you need to ensure backwards compatibility with
PHP < 4.1

RE: [PHP] TIP parsing form row data into variables

2003-06-22 Thread George Pitcher
Justin,

I'm using 4.3. V4.1 was my first ever exposure to PHP.

The example I provided used a field I knew had to be popluated (because of
where it came from, but for others I do some isset() validation.

The scenario I'm working with is university reading lists. A university has
several reading lists for which they want to purchase online materials. When
they run a course more than once (material is generally licensed on a
course-by-course basis, lasting for 1 year), I want to be able to generate a
fresh list, based on the old one but modifiable. Its working quite nicely,
but I need to get it finished before Tuesday, including re-writing the code
(and databases) to MS Access, rather than my development version using
MySQL.

Cheers

George

The following code obtains lists of files from two different directories and reverse 
numerically sorts them.  Then bellow it takes one file and dumps the contents into an 
array, which works fine.  The problem is where it takes the entire content of the 
matching file from the second directory and tries to put it into $entry.  It returns a 
parse error on line 67, which is the line I marked.  What should I do to fix this?  

Thanks a lot to you guys by the way for help with all of my problems.  I'm a 16 
year-old trying to create a weblog system using PHP (a new language to me) over summer 
vacation for fun.

[PHP] variable shortened in hidden fields?

Hello friends.

I am passing a variable of two word like "communications software" from one
form to the other. The variable passes as communications%20software . This
is okay for some purpose, but not for the hidden text field that I want. The
hidden text field gets the value "communications" only instead of
"communications software".

Is there a way to solve this?

Thanks

Apache 2.0.45

I've searched the archives and google, but haven't been able to quite
find a solution to this problem. I just upgraded from php4.3.1
(pre-release version) to php4.3.2. I am now getting the following two
errors, which I'm sure I've gotten and fixed in the past, but can't
figure out now...

ERROR 1 (An Apache error)

The dynamic link library Secur32.dll could not be found in the
specified path 

I click OK, and get the following php error:

Unknown() Unable to load dynamic library
'c:\winnt\system32\php_imap.dll' The specified module could not be
found.

Secur32.dll is not on my system, and hasn't been in the past.
php_imap.dll was copied to c\winnt\system32

php extension dir is c:\winnt\system32 (tried it with
c:\php\extensions as well).

My apologies - I can't imagine this is a new problem, and I'm sure
many others have found and solved it. I just can't seem to find it
logged anywhere.

echo "$seat[$i]";

[/end code]

Now - all of that works perfect and it displays seperate lines with links 
to each $seat in the browsereven when I click on the link and goto step 
5, it "seems" as though it is working correctly...

[code page=step5.php]

session_start ();
$_SESSION['seat'] = $_REQUEST['seat'];
echo "$_SESSION[seat]";

[/end code]

My question is - is my session working correctly? am I doing what I need to 
be doing in order to keep the seats secure so that noone can just type the 
seat number in the location bar and get to register their seat?

The reson I ask this is because the only way I know to test sessions is to 
close out my browser completely, reopen it and try going to the page I am 
testing...HOWEVER, when I do that in this situation, I am still allowed to 
change the actual seat number in my location barthis is what I do NOT 
want...

I have read and read and read online and every place I have looked says the 
same stuff that the way I have it above should be secure, but apparently it 
is not...

TIA,

Jay

[PHP] Variable from hidden fields shortens.

2003-06-22 Thread Denis L. Menezes
I have a form called feedback which has a hidden field as follows :
";
?>

I send this hidden field as a variable in form2 which sends an email with
the following code :
http://www.mydomain.com/findbymember.php?SubCategoryName=".$SubCategoryNa
me;

 $Message="$SenderName had searched for '$SubCategoryName'. His/her details
are as follows : "."\n"."Telephone number : ".$SenderTelNumber."\n";
 $Message=$Message."Mobile number : ".$SenderMobNumber."\n"."Email address :
".$SenderEmailAddress."\n";
 $Message=$Message."Address : ".$SenderAddress;

// Send email to member company
mail($mailTo, $mailSubject, $Message,$link);
?>

When my variable in form 1 is "Large Format Print", the mail that arrives is
as follows :
Please follow this
linkhttp://www.findusnow.com/findbymember.php?SubCategoryName=Large Format
Print

Jack had searched for 'Large Format Print'. His/her details are as follows :
Telephone number : 454588445
Email address : 989855564
Address : some address1, some home, some street, some city

As you can see the link does not show the full variable at the end and shows
only the word "large" instead of "large Format Print"

can any of you help?

Thanks

For example:

$a = 'a b c';
print $a;// a b c
print urlencode($a); // a+b+c

So, you want to urlencode your url (the query string).

Btw, magic_quotes_gpc and magic_quotes_runtime are totally
different beasts.  You cannot set magic_quotes_gpc at
runtime but may use php.ini as Jason suggests or .htaccess

Before you set it off, be sure you know how it will affect

[PHP] Security conundrum ....

2003-06-22 Thread Miles Thompson
This does have to do with PHP, but bear with me.

We're using a Flash movie, which calls various PHP scripts to authenticate 
users & retrieve news articles, to display a daily business digest. As 
Flash's printing capabilities are pathetic, we use JavaScript to popup a 
chromeless window in which runs print_news.php. (This is a small window, 
with selection, resizing, etc. all disabled, and which calls the print 
dialog on load; all that is really visible is its "Close" button.)

It won't be too long before some bright spark realizes that our site could 
be visited and the URL for print_news.php fed in; that person would then 
have free access - not good.

What I planned to do is add authentication to print_news.php, by passing 
the user's ckval  (obtained when first authenticated by user_logon.php) 
back to the browser in a session var. That does not work, as Flash 
apparently gobbles the cookie.

The apparent alternative is to call an intermediate script from Flash, 
passing the ckval, and having that script set the session and then redirect 
to print_news.php, using the header( Location: ... ). The problem is that 
opens in the same window, and I need a new one.

I obviously can't pass ckval in the URL, and I don't have any way, that I 
know of, to fake a  POST.

Suggestions or nudges in the right direction will be appreciated.

Regards - Miles Thompson

[PHP] changing PHP include location without .htaccess

2003-06-22 Thread Tim Thorburn
Hi,

I have a site running on a shared server (and as such, I have no access to 
the php.ini file) that I'd like to be able to change the default include 
path.  I've done this before using the .htaccess file and the following 
command:

php_value include_path ".:/path/to/web/"

However, on this particular server that command produces an error 500 on 
all PHP files with the above command in the .htaccess file.  Is there 
another way that I can change the default include path?

The server is running FreeBSD 4.4 and PHP 4.3.2RC4

Thanks

[PHP] limit on displaying a LONGTEXT filed from MySQL database

Hi,

How can I start searching for the first space in a string while starting at
say the 150th character?  I'm trying to display the first 150 characters of
an article that is stored in a LONGTEXT filed of a MYSQL database, and
should the 150th character be inside a word, I would want to finish
displaying that word.

For example supose the 150th character is the v in the word "privileges"  I
would want to finish displaying the word and end with "privileges" rather
then ending  with"priv"

thanks

How about using the SUBSTRING_INDEX function
 with delimiter set to ' ' (space). You could select
 for example - 25 words - with it, I think.

[PHP] How do I get the exit code of an external program?

2003-06-22 Thread Daevid Vincent
I wish to use Ping to test if some IP addresses are up... Now I could run
the command and parse to find various string components like this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ping -n -c 3 -w 2 -q 192.168.1.60
PING 192.168.1.60 (192.168.1.60) from 192.168.1.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.
--- 192.168.1.60 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% loss, time 1012ms


[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]# ping -n -c 3 -w 2 -q 192.168.1.4 
PING 192.168.1.4 (192.168.1.4) from 192.168.1.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.
--- 192.168.1.4 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% loss, time 999ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.322/0.340/0.358/0.018 ms


but it would be much more efficient if I could just use the built in exit
codes that 'ping' provides as per 'man ping':

"If ping does not receive any reply packets at all  it  will  exit  with
 code  1.  If  a packet count and deadline are both specified, and fewer
 than count packets are received by the time the deadline  has  arrived,
 it  will  also  exit with code 1.  On other error it exits with code 2.
 Otherwise it exits with code 0. This makes it possible to use the  exit
 code to see if a host is alive or not."

So it seems to me there needs to be another PHP function like exec(),
shell(), etc. that is the equivillent of the php exit() function but for
external programs. One that simply returns the integer exit code of an
executed shell program...

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php
string exec ( string command [, array output [, int return_var]])
exec() executes the given command, however it does not output anything. It
simply returns the last line from the result of the command.

However, you are correct in that there is the optional parameter that I've
never used before. Thanks for pointing that out...

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.system.php
string system ( string command [, int return_var])
system() is just like the C version of the function in that it executes the
given command and outputs the result. If a variable is provided as the
second argument, then the return status code of the executed command will be
written to this variable. 

The problem is that system want's to dump the output to the screen!!! I need
a command that will allow me to execute/system the command "silently" and
then *I* can do something based upon the exit code...


function active_nMap()
{
$test = exec("/usr/bin/nmap -sP ".$this->IP);
if ( strstr($test,"1 host up") ) 
$this->active = true;
else
$this->active = false;

return $this->active;
}

function active_ping()
{
$test = `ping -n -c 1 -w 1 -q $this->IP`;
if ( strstr($test,"100% loss") ) 
$this->active = false;
else
$this->active = true;

return $this->active;
}


function active_ping_exit()
{
//http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.system.php
$test = system("ping -n -c 1 -w 1 -q $this->IP", $code);
if ( $code == 0 ) 
$this->active = true;
else
$this->active = false;

return $this->active;
}

Re: [PHP] Secur32.dll and php_imap.dll

2003-06-22 Thread Mark
Well, I'm not sure if I did a smart thing, but it appears that
secur32.dll and security.dll are the same file, just differnt
versions. It seems that the file is secur32.dll on all Windows
versions except WinNT (I could be wrong). I simply copied and renamed
security.dll to secur32.dll.

So far so good. I just hope I didn't start a ticking timebomb.

Re: [PHP] Security conundrum ....

2003-06-22 Thread Justin French
Ok, I'm trying to get a grip on what happens here:

1. i visit your site, see a flash movie, which enables me to log-in

2. after i log in, I see a link called "news"

3. I click on it, which pops open a HTML window through javascript, with a
URL like example.com/print_news.php

[At this point, the news page should only be available to authenticated
users, but it isn't -- right?]


The answer appears to be sessions.  When you log in, you should be able to
pass a session ID back to the flash movie, along with the user's ckval
(whatever that is), and add a session variable like 'logged_in' to the
session.

When the flash movie uses javascript to pop open the news window, you should
be able to pass the session id as a GET variable in the URL, eg:

example.com/print_news.php?PHPSESSID=x

print_news.php needs to have this at the top:



...
Your news
...



...
Sorry, you must be logged in baby!
...




You don't NEED cookies to have session work... it can be done with URLs.

No offense, but why not just use exec() and its third argument, as 
suggested and as you yourself noted? It does, in fact, do what you are
asking for. You are quite correct that system() is not the function you
want.

Just wondering. :)

[PHP] Getting at $_POST values using a loop

2003-06-22 Thread Dave Alger
Hi all,

This one is causing me a few headaches. How should I be doing this?

On my previous page I've created a series of fields using a loop so that a
field is created like this:

 echo "$fieldname:";

On my next page then I've got to try to read these values. I could do this
as $_POST['Field0'], $_POST['Field1'] etc but a loop is what is required.

I've tried getting at the value by:

$a=$_POST['Field$n'];

and

$nb='$'."_POST['Field".$n."']";
$a=$$nb;

And neither works. How should I be doing it?

Thanks in advance for all help.

regards,
Dave

I've never done this using CURL however I have done this using socket

sure payflow will allow you to post data using socket connection.

Take a look at:

[PHP] Passing objects into methods or functions

2003-06-22 Thread Gerard Samuel
Im trying to pass an object into functions and class methods, and for some
reason, Im unable to access the object's methods.
When I var_dump() the object, its a valid object with the function or 
class method.
When I check via get_class_methods, all the methods are there, from 
within the function or class method.
I tried passing by reference, and the regular "copied" way.
I end up with the error ->
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: display_thumbnails() in ..
I can access the object's variables, but not it's methods

Maybe because Im tired, but if anyone experienced this before, I'd
greatly appreciate any feed back on this.
Thanks

{
   var $_tpl;
   var $gal_tpl = array();
