It's quite easy to remove access to the mail function, simply put mail in

Don't you know if there is a way to redefine the mail() function in
the php.ini file without touching the source code. Something like
prepending a file for every script parsed in the server and redefine
there several functions or something like that.

Thanks!

Consider removing the mail() function, and requiring they they use
SMTP
connections.  I believe one of the external mail classes supports
authenticated SMTP, so with that you could tell who was sending the
mail.

Wait until you have installed PHP5, then use the simplexml library.

[PHP] Configuration Variable user_agent

[Bernhard Kraft]

Hallo !

I run PHP 4.1.2.

I want to set the user_agent which gets sent
along when fetching file via the fopen(...) call.
Normally this is "PHP/VERISON" in my case "PHP/4.1.2"

I want to set a different user_agent.

I tried to set the variable "user_agent" in the
php.ini file. But the variable doesn't show up when
I view a phpinfo(...) page.
I also tried to set "user_agent" using the function
ini_set(varname, value) during runtime but this
didn't work either 
Was this directive removed ? I didn't find anything
in the archives.
Any suggestions ?

greets,
Bernhard

Hi.

I want to close fd 0 & 1, like I would do in C under Linux to close a socket with a

[PHP] Forcing Mac's to show download box, rather than inline

[Mark C]

Hi,

I'm trying to server an image(s) up from a php script, this script, checks
for the image and then outputs the required header types, I'm trying to
get the browsers to download the requested image (when they click the
link), rather than display inline.

I've got it working on both Mozilla and IE, perfectly, but on the mac's on
both Safari and IE it displays the image inline.

I'm pretty sure it has to do with the: Content-Disposition: or Content-type:

I'm currenntly using:

header("Pragma: public");
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0
header('Content-type: application/octet-stream');
header( "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=somefile.jpg" );
header("Content-Length: ".filesize("somefile.jpg"));

Coulod anyone advise me on what I would need to add/edit to get the mac to
do this,
I have no problem, outputting different header details, for differnt OS or
brower from the user agent string..

This as mentioned works ok for Mozilla and IE
(not yet tested in in konqueror or Opera)

Thanks in advance

ok, a little update, using the headers below, it opens a download as for
all the browsers on both Mac/Linux/win

header("Pragma: public");
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header('Content-type: image/jpg');
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$imageName);
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($imageName));
readfile($imageName);


except (there had to be one), as usuall IE fails to do what it is told, on
the Mac only using the code it tries to download an unkown filefile, of
extension application/force-download.

I've tried moving the headers around, removing the
application/force-download, but these headers are the only ones that will
for IE on both win and Mac to download rather than display it inline.

Also on IE in Mac, it's ignoring the filename being sent and saves it as
the script name (again all other browsers do as required).

The file once downloaded can be renamed, and works fine. whilst this is
fine for me, the avaerage person who will be using the site once finished,
probally will not even know how to rename files, so it has to save it
correctly.

Re: [PHP] Relative Url

Re: [PHP] Relative Url

Hi chris,

Haven't much time now but maybe you can find a way with those ideas:

in pollFunctions.php do :

$pollFunctions_path = str_replace( basename ( _FILE_ ) , '' , _FILE_ );

in foo.php do :

$foo_path = str_replace( basename ( _FILE_ ) , '' , _FILE_ );

Now you just have to compute the diff between $foo_path and 
$pollFunctions_path.

Hope this helps :-)

Used on *nix flavors and you need to compile ncurses into PHP. This will
allow you to do some cool things with shell scripting in php. Try

$append = '';
$string = '';
$origin = explode('/',$origin); 
$target = explode('/',$target);
unset($origin[(count($origin)-1)]);
unset($target[(count($target)-1)]);
for ( $i = 0 ; TRUE ; $i++ ){
if ( !isset($target[$i]) AND !isset($origin[$i]) )
break;
if ( strlen($string) == 0 AND $origin[$i] == $target[$i] ){;
continue;
}else if ( isset($target[$i]) AND $origin[$i] != $target[$i] ){
$append .= $target[$i].'/';
if ( isset($origin[$i]) ){
$string .= '../';

$HTTP_* aren't superglobals and are not available inside functions, so you 
have to adjust your code accordingly.

Also it would help to make good use of mysql_error() after *each* call to the 
mysql_*() functions.

Forgive the top-post.

I copied php.ini from /etc/ to /var/www/conf. Now the shell_exec works fine.

Thanks Jason. 

If I wanted to use exec() for this project in the future, is:

(shell_exec ("free -b")) = (exec("free -b", $data ,$result_code)) 

I tried using exec as 
exec("free -b", $data ,$result_code)); 
but I didn't get the $data I was expecting. Are my variables mixed up?

[PHP] ADOdb installation

[Gabe]

For those of you that are using ADOdb, hopefully you can help me out.  I'm
evaluating PHP on IIS and I was curious if I had to have a directory with
the ADOdb scripts for every virtual host?

For example, if I had three virtual hosts at three different IP's:

210.210.210.200
210.210.210.201
210.210.210.202

Would each virtual host need to have a directory with the ADOdb scripts?  Or
would it be possible to setup a virtual directory in each virtual host that
points to one folder that has the scripts?  It seems a little wasteful and
inefficient to have to copy the scripts for each virtual host.  Or does
someone know of a good way to do this?

Thanks!

Just put the adodb scripts in the include_path, or just have a

include('c:\adodb\adodb.php'); //not exactly sure what the include is

RE: [PHP] I think this is a bug...cant use exec commands.

[Jay Blanchard]

[snip]
I tried the php -I found php was looking for the php.ini in
/var/www/conf.
I copied php.ini from /etc/ to /var/www/conf. Now the shell_exec works
fine.

(shell_exec ("free -b")) = (exec("free -b", $data ,$result_code)) 

I tried using exec as 
exec("free -b", $data ,$result_code)); 
but I didn't get the $data I was expecting. Are my variables mixed up?
[/snip]

So there WAS more than one copy of the php.ini! :)

Have you tried $data = exec("free -b"); ?

They're different, see manual for details.

  exec("free -b", $data ,$result_code);
  print_r($data);

The real reason is probably because it's $HTTP_SESSION_VARS.

No, the php binary (ie not the webserver php module) was *expecting* its 
php.ini to be located at /var/www/conf. As it wasn't there, the existing copy 
at /etc/php.ini was copied over.

> Have you tried $data = exec("free -b"); ?

That will only give the *last* line of output, which I believe, is not what 
the OP wanted.

Are the smtp settings in php.ini identical to the previous version?

Are you positive you have made no other changes to your setup whilst upgrading 
php?

If so, does downgrading back to the previous version work?

[PHP] control panel--graphic question

[Leonard B Burton]

Greetings,

This is more of a graphic question

For a program I am writting I need to have a control panel to display anything that 
may be wrong.  I would like to use something like a stoplight so that it would be 
easily understood by a lay person.  Does anyone have any comments as to what they have 
used?  Also does anyone have a function/graphic that would be a stop light and 
changing the var would make it either show red, green, or yellow?

Thanks,

Leonard.

My only problem is: Sometimes you actually need the data from that table 
later in the same script, so instead of doing another data pull, I have 
alot of cases where this is alot more useful (not actual code from any 
of my work, but I've used this structure in the past):

$query = mysql_query("SELECT $fields FROM $table WHERE $crit") or 
die('fetch error'.mysql_error());

if (mysql_num_rows($query) > 0) {
  $result = mysql_fecth_array($query);
  // and so on ...
}
Use this code instead:
if ($result = mysql_fetch_array($query))
{
// do something
}
BTW, pls remember that an array of nothing (array()) is FALSE when it is 
casted into boolean. The comparison '!== FALSE' is not necessary just 
because mysql_fetch_array does not return empty arrays.

[PHP] Zend Optimizer 2.5.1 + PHP5 RC1 + WinXP + Apache 2 not happy together?

I've installed Apache and PHP5 RC1 fine, added my needed modules fine, then
I installed Zend Optimizer 2.5.1 and it doesn't load? phpinfo() doesn't show
it as loaded. php.ini is in the correct place and PHP is reading it. php.ini
has the Zend Optimizer lines at the bottom as added by the installer.

What to do?

Re: [PHP] PHP charset encoding

[Leung WC]

if the page that the input form is on sets utf-8 as the content type,
then most (?) browsers will send utf-8. you can use a meta tag like:
  

utf-8 characters are 8 bit clean, so they can be stored and retrieved
in mysql 3.x ok, but proper utf-8 sorting etc. doesn't work. for many
purposes though it seems to be ok.
single characters in utf-8 encoding do look like multiple characters
as far as 8 bit text handling programs are concerned (so yes, 15 characters
in iso-8859-1 or ascii isn't the same length as 15 characters in utf-8).
fonts that support utf-8 are required for properly displaying utf-8,
and you have to specify utf-8 on the display page (either via a content-type
header or with content-type meta tag as above) to get the browser
to use the right fonts.
- rob
Always use Content-type header, because the meta is overrided by the 
ISO-8859-1 default in php.ini. Also, use *DOS* as the encoding in MySQL 
to work w/ UTF-8 characters.

Also, remove the default encoding in Apache server (if you're using one) 
because it also overrides meta tags in html files.

After the proper header is sent, it is the duty of the client (browser) 
to find relevant fonts. However, make sure you use the lang and xml:lang 
attribute in your html/xhtml to select your locale. (different locale 
use a different set of fonts)

I'm running both 1.3.x and 2.0.x (both currently running PHP 4.3.4) and 
both seem to work equally well.  I would say that if the your server is 
running Linux  and you don't need any of the new fancy modules that can 
be used with Apache 2.0.x use 1.3.x.  If your server is running Windows 
you will probably want to run Apache 2.0.x since that is supposed to run 
much better under Windows than 1.3.x.

[PHP] Re: Session help please?

[Justin Patrin]

Paul wrote:

Probably a stupid question.

I figured I could do something like $_SESSION['test'] = 5 and refer to $test
on other pages however I cannot. The reason I thought I could do this is
because I can do $_SESSION['test'] = $_POST['test'] and be able to refer to
just $test on other pages.
Is the correct way to do this to make sure that I have somewhere
session_register['test']
Thanks!
It is true that you should be able to use $test to access the session 
var in other pages, but only if you have register_globals on and you 
have called session_start().

$_SESSION['var'] = 1;
is the same as
$var = 1;
session_register('var');
However, it's never a good idea to rely on globals because:
  1) The variable could come from the session, POST, or GET and you 
don't know which one it comes from. Sure, you know the order of 
precedence (you can even set it yourself in the php.ini), but you still 
don't know which one was used.
  2) Within functions, you don't have direct access to global 
variables. You can use global $var; but that's *VERY* prone to errors. 
You can use $GLOBALS['var'] but that's nearly as much typing as 
$_SESSION['var'] and is far less reliable and secure.

My suggestion is to turn off register_globals (as many others will tell 
you) and use $_POST, $_GET, $_SESSION, and maybe even $_REQUEST.

Thank you all for your collective help. I was very frustrated. This list
helped me find the answer quickly and once again PHP is slowly all beginning
to make sense. The default values enable safe-mode and that is what Jason
was trying to get me to check. Thus when the php.ini wasn't where php
thought it was then the engine just used the default values.

[PHP] asigning an array of variables to $_SESSION

[Andy B]

hi...

i need to assign an array to $_SESSION. the reason for this is that i have a page that 
gets data from 2 different tables from the same mysql db all at the same time... there 
is guestbook (for the guestbook) and events (for the events section). i guess i would 
need to know 2 things:
1. can only 1 call to mysql_connect deal with 2 different table calls at the same time?
2. since "guestbook" and "events" have the same exact field names i need to have 
$guestbook array and $events array assigned to $_SESSION so they dont get mixed up. i 
have something like this to start with:
$query=mysql_query("select * from guestbook order by Number ASC")||die(mysql_error());
while($guestbook=mysql_fetch_array($query)){
//this is as far as i got so far
//how and where would i  assign $guestbook to 
//$_SESSION so i would have something like $_SESSION
//['guestbook']['Number']?  
}

Yes, just use different statement handles

2. since "guestbook" and "events" have the same exact field names i need to have $guestbook array and $events array assigned to $_SESSION so they dont get mixed up. i have something like this to start with:
$query=mysql_query("select * from guestbook order by Number ASC")||die(mysql_error());
while($guestbook=mysql_fetch_array($query)){
//this is as far as i got so far
//how and where would i  assign $guestbook to 
//$_SESSION so i would have something like $_SESSION
//['guestbook']['Number']?  
}

$arr = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
$_SESSION['guesbook'] = $arr;
or

$_SESSION['guestbook']['Number'] = $value;

No. '<' is always for the opening tag.
So you have to enter the entity < whenever you mean '<' in XML data.

[PHP] Re: PHP as module, also as suexec, in Apache?

[James Butler]

Running PHP Version 4.2.2

I would also like to run PHP both as an Apache module and in CGI mode.

My Red Hat 9 installation includes a nice Apache with PHP compiled in.

I would like to run the "ARSC" PHP/MySQL chat application (from
sourceforge.net) on this server. I could run it as-is, however the
authors recommend using its server sockets feature to cut down on
CPU/RAM useage. This requires that PHP be compiled as a CGI version
with --enable-sockets.

Can I add a PHP CGI installation to my system without its interfering
with the Apache module's performance?

The suggested PHP CGI compilation instruction for ARSC is:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php-cgi/4.2.3 \
--with-mysql=/your/mysql/sources \
--enable-sockets

followed by "make" and "make install", of course.

My guess is that this will NOT impact the Apache installation, as the
CGI version of PHP would need to be invoked by the application, which
is not the same as the server module that parses every file with an
extension identified in the .conf files. (In Red Hat 9/Apache 2.0,
that's the php.conf file included in httpd.conf. In earlier versions
of Apache it's right in httpd.conf itself.)

Maybe? Thanks!
James

If you are going to be doing this a lot, you should take a look at AMFPHP,
Flash Remoting for PHP, at http://sourceforge.net/projects/amfphp/

This seems to be a fast, reliable way to send data back and forth between
your server and your Flash client.

No, that will se $_SESSION['guestbook'] to one thing after another, not 
an array. I would suggest:

while($rec = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
  $_SESSION['guestbook'][] = $rec;
  //do something else with $rec?

If you are using HTML in the  Tag

It think you will want getURL("change_flash_value.php?flash=1") and then
grab the flash variable from the $_REQUEST array.

There is a great book called "Macromedia Flash MX Professional 2004 for
Server Geeks" by Nate Weiss (ISBN: 0735713820) that, while it doesn't have
PHP examples, does a great job of discussing Flash/server communication.

[PHP] I can't view files uploaded with PHP

[Linux Zero]

Hi everybody!

I write some PHP scripts for a system's module that allows the user to upload a file 
from his computer to the host. It works fine in a server with Linux   Apache   MySQL   
PHP (LAMP) environment. I based on the examples of this page:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php

Las week we transfer the whole system to another server with the same environment, but 
now the uploaded files can't be viewed in the browser. That's because the file is 
uploaded with 640 permissions and can't be opened by the browser with a wwwrun user.

We check in the old server and find that these uploaded files with 644 permissions. I 
check the httpd.conf and php.ini files looking for something like a umask option, but 
I find nothing like that.

Can anyone tell me what can I do to solve this problem in the new server? We can't 
return to the old server anymore!

Thanks a lot for your help!

Use SendandLoad as was done here to pass vars to a php login script:

varSender = new LoadVars();
varReceiver = new LoadVars();
varSender.first_name = first_txt.text;
varSender.last_name = last_txt.text;
varSender.password = pass_txt.text;
varSender.action = 'login';
varSender.sendAndLoad("http://"+ host + "user_logon.php", 
varReceiver, 'GET');

A copy of ActionScript for Flash MX, The Definitive Guide is really 
helpful. I don't know if Colin Moock has a MX2004 version out yet.

RE: [PHP] Displaying a money datatype from mssql - Solution

[Alex Hogan]

Recap:
In the query I had;

And it was returning;
Total Amount
5.41108926696E-309

I tried to modify the query to;
SELECT cast(totalamount as decimal(10,2)) as totalamount

And php gave me an error;
Undefined Index at line (x);

When I tried to use 'number_format($totalamount,2)' it returned;
Total Amount
0.00

Solution:
The solution was in the query;
SELECT cast(totalamount as numeric(10,2)) as totalamount

This returns the proper formatting;
Total Amount
123.50

[PHP] problem about php

[Lu Wang]

Dear Sir/Madam,

 These days I am studying php, however, there are always problems 
of configuration with php under windows 98. Could you tell me how to 
configurate it in detail.
 
 In perticurly,when I deal with some codes about domxml function, 
the browser always shows like this: Fatal error:  Call to 
undefined function:  domxml_open_mem() in 
c:\apache\htdocs\svg_dom_xml_php_bsp.php on line 76. What is wrong 
here?
 
 I also looked through the web site www.php.net.  But I was 
confused with so much information.Should I download GNOME XML library? Should 
domxml run only under linux, not windows?Should domxml run above 
the version php4.0.x?
 If possible under windows, how can I get the GNOME XML library and 
then how to install it? At last,how can I configurate php again after 
installing it?
 
 Do you know the software phptraid-2.2.1? After installing it, I 
can do nothing about the configuration? And, which version of php is in 
this phptraid? 
 
   Thanks for your reading my mail. 
 
Best regards,
 
Lu Wang

Without further information it is hard to help you.

Anyway, the PHP mail() function has problems in some circunstances.

You may want to try this class that provides workarounds to some of the 
mail function problems. It comes with a wrapper function named 
smtp_mail() that emulates the mail() function except that it always 
sends the message via STMP independently of your platform.

You can enable debugging to see the SMTP dialog and so you can have a 
clue if the message is reject or accepted by the SMTP server you are 
using. If you do not have SMTP server to relay the message, you can 
always try to use the class direct delivery mode.

http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage

You will also need this other class:

[PHP] Strange Numeric Conversion...

[Monty]

Why is this happening???

$id = 11;
echo $id;   // Displays: 9

$id = 11;
echo $id;   // Displays: 11

How do I make the first number (00011) display as 11? Why is it showing 9?

Thanks.

Monty

[PHP] Why does session ID sometimes show appeneded to url and sometimes not?

[BOOT]

Thanks to those who helped with my last post on session vars.

My question now is why does my server seem to randomly choose whether or not
to show the session ID appended to the browser URL? Sometimes it is there,
sometimes not. All pages session_start();.

Thanks!

Sorry for responding to myself but I also need to ad that you should
not echo or print anything out in your php code before your header
function or the text/html header will be sent.

Number values starting with a leading zero are assumed to be octal values.

Octal 11 = Decimal 9

First of all you have "naked" numbers. The first one, 11, looks like
a binary number (which actually should be 3). You are going to have to
trim the leading zero's from the number to have it display as 11.

Re: [PHP] Strange Numeric Conversion...

[Monty]

I tried removing the zeros, but, I get the same result:

$id = 11;
$id = ltrim($id, '0');
echo $id;   // Displays: 9 instead of 11 ???

This didn't work either:

$id = 11;
settype($id, 'string');
$id = ltrim($id, '0');
echo $id;   // Displays: 9 instead of 11 ???

No matter what I do, $id=11 is seen as "9". Only way is to pass the
number without the zeros ($id=11), but, because this data is being read from
a database, I can't change the format because PHP seems to be converting it
immediately to a 9 instead of reading it as 11 or even 11.

If PHP sees this as an octal, then why does gettype(11) = INTEGER? This
makes no sense.

Monty.

Re: [PHP] Image output (Newb question)

[Red Wingate]

use the output-buffer functions ( ob_start() ... etc.. )
but if you want to display an image you need to only display a image by 
your image or save it to a file and view it using the html  tag.
