[PHP] Affiliates Programs

[The Digital E]

Does anyone know of a good PHP affiliates program, I'm willing to spend 
some cash if I need to, I have to have one up in a week for a client 
and can't possibly write it from the ground up by then. A good free one 
that I can build on or a great package that costs $100 or less would be 
ideal.

Thanks,
Eric

Running FreeBSD 4.7 and MySql 3.23.58 if that helps
Thank you in advance for any help or guidance and once again sorry for being

If you have an int auto-increment field that is the primary key, you 
could have reached the upper limit for int -- which would prevent new 
rows from being added.

1mb is not any limit for MySQL.

I ran across that one as well, it may be a bit more than I need though, 
and doesn't look very customizable. I'll look further into that one, 
though, thanks. If anyone has used it though... please let me know how 
your experience has been.
Thanks

Possibly. You would have to read the changelog of GD to see.

You would normally have to recompile PHP to get it use a newer version of GD. 
If your host allowed you to do so then you might as well upgrade your version 
of PHP and use the bundled GD libs.

[Alessandro Vitale]

check apache server version from the test page.
depending on your system, you may have another web server already running.
if you really wish to install and use version 2.0.49 make sure the installed
server is not conflicting with another one.

Do you check mysql_error and mysql_errno to see what

Yes, you must use a cookie with function setcookie() before any header

Have you tried 'compressing' something using PHP and then 'uncompressing' it 
using the VB-zlib wrapper?

gzuncompress() <-> gzcompress()
gzinflate()<-> gzdeflate()

There seems to be an error in the manual listing:

  "gzuncompress -- Uncompress a deflated string"

Put an if check around your QT placeholder code:

if (isset($_POST['nameOfYourSelectBox'])) {

// placeholder code

}

Set your embed src-tag to:

src="../../../mov/"

So if you submit your select box the selected movie should be shown. Maybe
you can omit the width and height attributes.

[PHP] extracting quoted text in string

[Vincent DUPONT]

Hi,

I would like to extract the quoted text from a string
for example : the translation for beautiful is "beau" and wonderful is "formidable"
I need to get 'beau' and 'formidable' strings into an array.

Any idea??
I can go with strpos and substrings, but maybe there is something more convenient?

I can imagine preg_match() with search pattern "/\"[[:alnum:]]*\"/Ui"
See http://www.php.net/preg_match. You may need print_r to see where the

Use preg_match_all(), otherwise you'll only get the first match.

http://us2.php.net/setcookie

Don't put the username and password in the cookie. You need to set a unique
identifier in the cookie that is related to the username and password on the
server side. md5() and uniqid() can come in handy for this.

[PHP] PEAR/MySQL woes: Function registration failed - duplicate name

[Jough P]

Installed a new PHP last night because I wanted to start using PEAR.   
When I use 'pear' from the command line a few funny things happen.  
Among them are a bunch of errors like the following:

PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - 
mysql_connect in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - 
mysql_pconnect in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - 
mysql_close in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - 
mysql_select_db in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - 
mysql_create_db in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - 
mysql_drop_db in Unknown on line 0
etc

I looked in php.ini and the line that includes the mysql.so is only 
there once:
extension=mysql.so

Any ideas how I can fix this?  I'd rather not have a couple pages full 
of errors every time I use the pear command.

Thanks!!

how about just calling 'db.php' so that when someone does request it via
a web browser it will be parsed and end up not sending any data to the
client?

that should read, "just calling *it* 'db.php'", regarding the name of
the file used to store the username/password info.

[PHP] PHP Basic's Problem with a simple script.

[php-general]

Hi !

I am an unexperienced PHP newbie, and a have a Problem:
The following script is a sample from a PHP tutorial,
but it does not work on my machine.
I use  PHP Ver. 4.1.2 with apache 1.3.26 on a debian box.
In php.ini, "safe_mode" is off, and "register_globals" is on.

The script from the mentioned tutorial 
(http://www.galileocomputing.de/openbook/php4/kapd.htm)
should be a sample for a php-file which invokes itself;
This does not work on my machine;
I can enter names and submit them as often I like, but
the statement from the if-block is never executed, i.e.
the output "You have entered the following name: ..."
is never displayed.

Here is the excerpt from this script:

--


";
   }
?>


Please enter a Name and send the form:

 2nd Name
 1st Name







I assume the reason is in global or general settings,
but I don't know them.
Does anybody know what to do ?

best regards

chrm

We'll call that Option 3, which is a viable option if you cannot do Option 2
(store outside of webroot). The problems with this method is that if PHP
ever fails for any reason, the file may be delivered as plain text. It can
also be run "out of context". For a db connection script, this could mean
that someone could program a bot to hit this script multiple times and use
up your database connections and slow things down. If the file runs normal
PHP code, depending upon how it's written, it could be run "out of context"
and perhaps generate useful errors to people profiling your application or
possibly show data that wasn't intended to be shown by itself (imagine an
.inc file that generates a table from the database that's normally protected
by surrounding PHP code, but now it can be run by itself).

Option 4 would be to place the files in an .htaccess protected directory.
Again, though, if Apache were to fail for any reason, the file could be
served as plain text. This option is also not portable to other web servers,
so that could be an issue.

Are you clicking on the submit button to submit the form or pressing enter?

If clicking on the button and this still isn't working, then register
globals is OFF. Whoever told you it was ON is a damn liar and should be
whipped and thrown in the brig for a couple weeks to teach them a lesson!!!

If php.ini says it's ON, then you're looking at the wrong php.ini or PHP is
reading another one (or using defaults). Look at the first block of a
phpinfo() page:



to see where PHP is reading it's php.ini from or where it's expecting it.

I am an unexperienced PHP newbie, and a have a Problem:
The following script is a sample from a PHP tutorial,
but it does not work on my machine.
I use  PHP Ver. 4.1.2 with apache 1.3.26 on a debian box.
In php.ini, "safe_mode" is off, and "register_globals" is on.

The script from the mentioned tutorial
(http://www.galileocomputing.de/openbook/php4/kapd.htm)
should be a sample for a php-file which invokes itself;
This does not work on my machine;
I can enter names and submit them as often I like, but
the statement from the if-block is never executed, i.e.
the output "You have entered the following name: ..."
is never displayed.

Here is the excerpt from this script:

--


";
   }
?>


Please enter a Name and send the form:

 2nd Name
 1st Name







I assume the reason is in global or general settings,
but I don't know them.
Does anybody know what to do ?

best regards

chrm

[PHP] Spammers

[The Digital E]

Hey everyone, don't know about you, but I'm sick of spam and so I've 
reported the spammers to their ISP ipowerweb.com
I've sent them the headers and traceroute results and their abuse team 
is investigating, it would be more powerful if a bunch of people 
complained about it, so if you have a minute and are sick of the 
garbage from suisse bank and information desk, send a quick email to 
the ISP. They should be shut down.

Last resort
If this doesn't work, I have a few buddies that would love to try out 
their DOS attack skills, but I'd rather deal with it legally.

I believe he made reference to them in his original post here:

Oftentimes, when I send a message to the PHP list, I get an auto-response
from both of the above.

Those messages are only broadcast if you happen to send a message to the
board cause people have autoresponders set. Given that there are only two
and now one bad address returning a message, I find it fairly easy to just
hit the delete button three times. I don't think this qualifies as spam.

So, as I hit the send button, I know I'll have 3 messages to delete in a few
seconds. No big deal...

Well yeah, I could, but I'm rather adept at deleting the REAL spam I get so
it's not a bother.  lol

I use a combination of filters and outlook message rules to catch most of
it, so no worries. I'm used to it now.

(And yet again, another couple to delete...)

I guess you found a php.ini somewhere and saw that register_globals was
on? I seriously doubt your findings (unless I overlooked a typo regarding
a variable name or something), but please add this code to be sure:

echo 'register_globals [' . ini_get('register_globals') . ']';

Hope that helps.

I have sent a message to them as well, got a investigating response
and nothing has happened.  ipowerweb seems to be a popular place
for people to spam from.  Even though they do have a no-spam
policy, they seem to look the other way when it does occur.

The latter form (K&R) conserves vertical space, but I find it a lot 
harder to follow.  Harder to move blocks of code around too.  I'm sure 
plenty of people disagree, so of course this is IMHO.
And I'm one of them. :-) I like the K&R version because it saves 
verticaly space and most editors can't really handle correct tabbing 
when you put it after. IMHO it's just not necessary as ALL blocks should 
have braces, even those that are one-line. If you always use the braces, 
 you can looks for indenting as the open of the block and the end-brace 
(and un-indenting) as the close of the block.

Possibly. You would have to read the changelog of GD to see.

You would normally have to recompile PHP to get it use a newer version of
GD. 
If your host allowed you to do so then you might as well upgrade your
version 
of PHP and use the bundled GD libs.

It's not spam per-se, but these addresses obviously should not be on the 
list. AND If you try to respond, the mailboxes are full, so there's no 
way to contact the users themselves. I see it as spam because it's 
wasting lots of bandwidth. Just think of the number of messages on this

[PHP] easy question...

[Tim Traver]

Hi all,
I'm sure this question has come up before, so it should be an easy answer...
I'm running PHP as an apache module, and have safe_mode turned on.
When a script attempts to create a directory, or upload a file, it creates 
it as the web server user.

Since it is an apache module, running suexec won't make it act like a 
particular user, so how can you get it to create directories, or upload 
files that have a particular user ownership ?

Thanks,
Tim.

Everyone says use a filter, but you need to think of the resource issue 
as well. There are at least 2 (probably more) servers which have to 
process this mail. In addition, extra bandwidth is used. This may not 
seem like much, but it's still a complete waste of resources.

some text -and also a page that shows all the table results . i 
have to
get this on my site in the next few hours, please any help appreciated.

ie:
john blah blah blah blah blah
markblah blah blah blah blah
jenny   blah blah blah blah blah

Well, there's phpMyAdmin, but it's a complete DB admin system. If you 
just want a form to enter data and a listing of data, you might want to 
look into PEAR's DB_DataObject_FormBuilder and rdbedit2.

Whoops, wrong URL form rdbedit.

[PHP] "Date object"

[Ryan A]

Hi,
A bit confused, I downloaded a function and it says it takes a "date
object"what exactly is a "date object"?

This is exactly what is written " The function takes a date object as its
only parameter."

I checked out the manual and tried a timestamp, and then checked "date",
"getdate", "mktime" etc
am doing something wrong...but wont know what till I understand the "date
object" that this needs.

The script is at:
http://scripts.franciscocharrua.com/php-calendar.php

Thanks,

[PHP] Online Testing Application

[Pushpinder Singh]

Hello All,
 I am designing a PHP and MySQL based online Testing Application. 
The application will consist of about 120 lessons and each lesson will 
have a quiz at the end of the lesson. There will also be some core 
lessons that all test takers will have to pass before going ahead. 
There will be a good number of optional/elective courses.

The main page that I am trying to design a page which will tell a user, 
what lessons he/she has passed, what lessons he /she is eligible to 
take and the lessons he /she cannot take at the moment. The lessons are 
numbered sequentially like Lesson 101, 102, 103, 104, 105 , 106 
110. Out of them e.g. only Lesson 101 and 104 are CORE 
requirements, the rest are just electives. However a person cannot do 
Lesson 106 (which is an elective ) till he /she has passed Lesson 104.

I know people may have attempted to do the same in the past.  I would 
appreciate any pointers for the design/ implementation. I know that I 
will have to create  a set of rule which will dictate the order in 
which the users will be allowed to  travel through the tests. But other 
suggestions will be most welcome.

Thanks in advance
Pushpinder

Re: [PHP] Spammers

[Steve Douville]

"This may not seem like much, but it's still a complete waste of resources."

So is this thread...  ;-)

Really, though, the spam problem as a WHOLE is a resource waster. On top of
the 100+ spam messages I get a day, getting these two IF I post a message
really isn't wasting that much resource. I mean, really, I don't read all of
the posts from this list, either, but the mail server still has to process
them all.

The only reasonable way to solve this is for the admins to delete the
addresses. Maybe if they got as many emails as this thread has produced,
perhaps they would be prompted to do something about it.

Oh, look, two more to delete. (I knew the risk, believe me...)  ;-)

That was not what was said nor implied in my reply. Basically upgrading the GD 
lib used by PHP needs root privileges. If I understand you correctly, you're 
on a shared host, thus _you_ are not able to upgrade anything.

If you do manage to persuade your hosting company to do an upgrade then they 
may as well upgrade PHP and use the bundled GD lib which apparently works 
better with PHP than the standard GD lib as opposed to just upgrading the GD 
lib.

If you mean text editors then I believe a link is contained in the weekly

No such thing. If you look at the code, though, it looks like it expects an
array such as the one returned from getdate().

What about just a parent-child relationship? Lessons 101 and 104 will have
no parent and the others have parents that are the prerequisites. So 106 has
a parent of 104, meaning 104 must be completed first.

Or just use a separate table that lists relationships in two columns:
class_id and prereq_id. So 101 and 104 would have no entries and 106 would
have one entry for 104. This method would be useful for classes that may
have more than one prerequisite, also.

I use a prereq table that contains lesson ids and the associated
prereqs.  When a student meets the minimal requirements for the
prerequisite course then they are given access to the additional or sub
sequential courseware.  This will show up in their login area of the
LMS.

I would suggest that you make everything as modular as possible, all the
way down to the ELOs.  This way you can reuse any learning objective
logic that you used in a previous lesson.  All  you have to do is
re-associate the content.  Most of the problems I have run into is the
IDs either don't think large enough, which is evident in the way the
course seems disjointed, or they don't think small enough, they worry
too much on the lesson and not enough on the objectives that make up the
lesson and how they can be made into expressions that will transcend
lessons, courses, etc...

text form values update just fine. would appreciate some help.

the html:



club member?
No: club_member ==
'N'){echo 'CHECKED';}?>>
Yes: club_member
== 'Y'){echo 'CHECKED';}?>>


the query to update:

$query = "UPDATE outdoor SET name='$name', email='$email', zip='$zip',
club_member='$club_member' WHERE id='$id'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Error in query: $query. " .
mysql_error());

You have to create a value for the box...or check for ON

function radioBox($radioBoxState){
/*
** this function will get the tail value of the checked radio
button
** and return the appropriate value for use by the database,
either a
** 'y' or 'n'
*/
if(TRUE == preg_match('/Yes/', $radioBoxState)){
$radioBoxState = "y";
} elseif(TRUE == preg_match('/No/', $radioBoxState)){
$radioBoxState = "n";
}
return $radioBoxState;
}
function checkBox($checkBoxState){
/* 
** this is a function that will turn an 'on' checkbox into a 'y'
for the database
** if it is not 'on' an 'n' will be returned
*/
if("on" == $checkBoxState){
$checkBoxData = "y";

Yep, noticed the getdate() thing but was just confused about the "date

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php

Note: The valid range of a timestamp is typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901
20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07 GMT. (These are the dates that
correspond to the minimum and maximum values for a 32-bit signed integer.)
Additionally, not all platforms support negative timestamps, therefore
your date range may be limited to no earlier than the Unix epoch. This
means that e.g. dates prior to Jan 1, 1970 will not work on Windows, some
Linux distributions, and a few other operating systems.

[PHP] [PHP-General] - LOC/FP for PHP.

[francesco[AT]automationsoft[DOT]biz]

Hi all,
I have a question about PHP in relation with software engineering, and in particular, 
in order to apply COCOMO metod in a web-oriented software.
I want to do a cost estimation of a software  write in PHP-MySQL (and Linux-Apache) 
for a LAN.
I know the teory about the software enginnering and especially of the model for 
estimation cost.
I have many books and online materials about this, but in all I haven't table that 
show the coefficient of LOC/FP or SLOC/UFP (for COCOMOII) of PHP (in these tables 
there are coefficient for C, C++, Java, Lisp, Basic, ADA, Assembly, but not about PHP 
or scripting languages).
Anyone know anything about this arguments?
Thanks in advance and regards to all folks.

Jason,

I have root access to my server.  It's a dedicated server with 1and1.com.  I

I'm researching whether to upgrade PHP from 4.2.2 to 4.3.6 or just upgrade

Here's a little tip:

  $a = (object) getDate();
  print_r($a);

haha.. now you got your date object :)

Did you start the session before you set $_SESSION['new_name']?

Yes, it is. Providing you have sessions configured correctly and use 
session_start().

That was my problem.
I reorganized and put some code in a file that didn't have a 
session_start() call. :-(

[PHP] PHP Newbie needs a little help 1-on-1

[Mike]

Ok, I'm a pretty fast learn but syntax and basic lack of serious 
programming background hinder my efforts. I can make Javascript do what I 
want it to and usually perl also but I'm in over my head with my PHP 
project and I'm on a deadline.

Objective:

To create a set of forms that 
1) input data to a MySQL database (done)

2) login to that database with a username and password and set thos 
values with a cookie while redirecting the user to a form for updating 
data (mostly done)

3) use the values of the set cookie to call the users record into that 
form for modification (begun)

4) Modify the data on submit

Additional Objectives:

1) create a calculator that takes length x width x depth in inches and 
results a cubic foot calculation.

I've been doing some of the work with Dreamweaver MX, but I'm getting 
some unfound XML error on one of the extension forms so that the code is 
not generated. Know anything about this?

I would like to have an email and phone exchange to finish up this thing.
It's mostly done but I may need syntax and query help.

If you are comfortable with mid level PHP please email ASAP. I'm on Long 
Island and work late into the evening so calls are no problem. I have 
flat rate phone and can call you back.

Mike
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

PS - if you are hip to Burning Man, this project relates to that and I'm 
doing it as a labor of love.

[PHP] Willing to Pay For Upgrade Help

[Ryan Schefke]

Is any Linux techie out there willing to accept a small payment to upgrade
my Linux dedicated root server from PHP 4.2.2 to PHP 4.3.3 (or 4.3.6,
whichever is recommended)?  I need to leverage the latest version of GD
Library for better quality picture uploads.  I'm a windows guy and don't
have much experience with shell commands and Linux machines.

 

Thanks,

Ryan

[PHP] Installing Imagemagick on Windows

[Tan Ai Leen]

Hi,
I need help with installing Imagemagick on Windows. I tried googling but 
there is no solution provided. I discovered that a lot of people are 
having the same problem as me. After placing the dll in the extension 
folder and adding in extension=php_imagick.dll into php.ini, Apache will 
hit error Unknow(): Unable to load dynamic library 
F:\php\extensions\php_imagick.dll.

I believe that my php.ini is configured correctly. I am able to load 
other extensions with out any error.
This is what is in my php.ini file

extension_dir = "F:\php\extensions\"
extension=php_imagick.dll
What should I do with the ImageMagick library? Is there a step by step 
guide on installing imagemagick? With versions of library and links to 
download them?

Thanks in advance,
Ai Leen

[PHP] Can session.save_path data be saved to a database instead of a file system?

[Caleb Walker]

I have 2 servers fail-over/load-balanced behind an F5
bigIP.  I want session data to be maintained in the event one server takes
a dive.  In this scenario, if a user is in the middle of doing
something while logged in, they will not have to lose all work and log
back into the server to continue working. Can that be done without
rewriting an application?
I saw a link here:
http://www.phpfreaks.com/quickcode/DB_eSession_class_securely_stores_PHP_sessions_in_a_MySQL_DB/286.php
but this seems to be something that would have to be written into the
application and I didn't write it and do not want to take on the
responsibility to do so from here.  Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thank You,
Caleb

There're plenty of those to be found. The list archives should have plenty of 
posts from myself (and others!) regarding the recompiling/reconfiguring of 
PHP and the installation of GD lib.

Well one way to base your decision on salient facts is to find out what has 
changed between the 4.2.2 & 4.3.6 (and the intervening versions) by reading 
the changelogs. Then decide whether the bug fixes and improvements are worth 
your while to upgrade to.

If you're using a pre-installed dedicated server then it's more than likely it 
has a version of RedHat on it. You may be lucky and be able to upgrade PHP 
via RPM. But AFAIK RedHat has never (or hardly ever) provided PHP upgrades.
