[PHP] file get contents
Hello,
I have been usng the file_get_contents function to insert a (repeating)
part of my code
$lines = file_get_contents('../shared/acessibility_box.htm');
echo "$lines";
In this file I have the a self submitting link
A
The problem I think is this code is inserted after the page headers have
been set. And so the line just generates an error.
When I roll over the link I get (or something similar)
http://localhost/nhs/?text_size=small
I have tried most of the other similar functions (include, require) with no
success.
Any help would be great...

[PHP] Re: file get contents
Ok...got it now.
Thanks for the tip max. It was that there was no parsing with the
file_get_contents function. Had another minor error but helped that I knew
include() was the way to go.

file_get_contents does exactly that - it gets the contents of the file
*without* parsing it, i.e. any raw PHP code that exists within it,
will be treated as what it is when 'got' = plain text.

[PHP] PHP / MySQL Authentication class
Can anyone point me to a good User Authentication class written in PHP (Version 5 preferably) that uses MySQL as the backend. If the output is valid XHTML then even better. There are lots of hits on Google but I need some help sorting the wheat from the chaff. It's for a hobbyist site so I'm looking for something using cookies that will keep people logged in between visits and provide some personalisation.

[PHP] Changes from 5.0.4 => 5.0.5 (_SERVER variabes not defined).

However, these were not defined in PHP-5.0.5 - I then tried PHP-5.0.4 to see if affected this too, which it didn't. So there is some change in PHP between 5.0.4 & 5.0.5, I'd be grateful for any suggestions/ideas in regards to this matter.

[PHP] Help with Reverse Tree Traversal using Recursion ..
I have a large data tree that I wanted to display in an outline
format. I used a textbook tree recursion function to go through the
data and display it as nested unordered lists:
function outputTree($id) {
if (checkChildObjectExists($id)) {
print "";
$child = getChildArray($id);
foreach ($child as $key => $value) {
print "$value";
outputTree($key);
}
print "";
}
}
This works as expected:
> Level 1 (Top)
> Level 2
> Level 3 (Bottom)
However, I also want to display a reverse tree to allow users to trace
their way back up the tree after landing on a lower branch. I tried to
be clever and reverse the function above as:
function outputReverseTree($id) {
if (checkParentExists($id)) {
print "";
$parent = getParentArray($id);
foreach ($parent as $key => $value) {
print "$value\n";
outputReverseTree($key);
}
print "";
}
}
Which works, but there is something wrong with my logic as the tree
comes back reversed:
> Level 3 (Bottom)
> Level 2
> Level 1 (Top)
Any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks,
- Greg

[PHP] Virtual includes of PHP into SSI pages.
Hi Folks, I'm attempting to diagnose an apparent problem with my Apache/PHP server setup. The platform is SPARC Solaris 9. I'm running Apache httpd 2.0.55 and PHP 4.4.1, built from NetBSD pkgsrc. I have a user who has .shtml (server side include) pages which include PHP fragments using directives like (and yes, I know this is silly, and that obvious thing to do is to use PHP for the top level pages rather than SSI; unfortunatly I'm the sysadmin providing the service, rather than the person maintaining the content). I wanted to check to see if anyone knows of any known problems or gotchas in this area? I'm told that this mechanism was working okay until recently, but it broke at some point in the last few months. I've done a number of upgrades to both the apache2 and PHP packages over the time period in question, in response to security advisories; unfortunately the user can't pinpoint exactly when things started to fail. I've recreated a very simple test case: test.shtml: Test Page Begin Test End Test foo1.php: Hello From PHP Fetching "test.shtml" produces the output: Begin Test End Test (no sign of the included fragment in the output). Editing the test harness to teplacing the include of foo1.php with an include of a plain HTML or SHTML file produces the expected output (included content appears in the output between the begin and end markers). Furthermore, if I edit the test harness to include an HTML file and *then* the PHP fragment, I get a reproduceable segmentation fault in PHP: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0xfecb541c in zend_hash_index_update_or_next_insert (ht=0xfed3c1c4, h=0, pData=0xffbfdec8, nDataSize=12, pDest=0x0, flag=1) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/Zend/zend_hash.c:390 390 p = ht->arBuckets[nIndex]; (gdb) where #0 0xfecb541c in zend_hash_index_update_or_next_insert (ht=0xfed3c1c4, h=0, pData=0xffbfdec8, nDataSize=12, pDest=0x0, flag=1) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/Zend/zend_hash.c:390 #1 0xfecb8cc0 in zend_list_insert (ptr=0x299250, type=2) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/Zend/zend_list.c:45 #2 0xfecb8eb8 in zend_register_resource (rsrc_result=0x0, rsrc_pointer=0x299250, rsrc_type=2) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/Zend/zend_list.c:98 #3 0xfec693d8 in _php_stream_alloc (ops=0xfed31528, abstract=0x1eb770, persistent_id=0x0, mode=0xfece83f0 "rb") at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:281 #4 0xfec6e0b0 in _php_stream_fopen_from_fd (fd=22, mode=0xfece83f0 "rb", persistent_id=0x0) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:2072 #5 0xfec6de5c in _php_stream_fopen (filename=0x297cb8 "/usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/foo1.php", mode=0xfece83f0 "rb", opened_path=0xffbfeb90, options=165) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:2004 #6 0xfec6d5cc in _php_stream_fopen_with_path (filename=0x297cb8 "/usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/foo1.php", mode=0xfece83f0 "rb", path=0xfece7fc8 ".:/usr/pkg/lib/php", opened_path=0xffbfeb90, options=165) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:1784 #7 0xfec6efd4 in php_plain_files_stream_opener (wrapper=0xfed31598, path=0x297cb8 "/usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/foo1.php", mode=0xfece83f0 "rb", options=165, opened_path=0xffbfeb90, context=0x0) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:2489 #8 0xfec6fb18 in _php_stream_open_wrapper_ex (path=0x297cb8 "/usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/foo1.php", mode=0xfece83f0 "rb", options=173, opened_path=0xffbfeb90, context=0x0) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:2696 #9 0xfec6ff34 in _php_stream_open_wrapper_as_file_handle ( path=0x297cb8 "/usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/foo1.php", mode=0xfece83f0 "rb", options=141, fh=0xffbfeb88) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/streams.c:2823 #10 0xfec53900 in php_open_wrapper_for_zend (filename=0x297cb8 "/usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/foo1.php", fh=0xffbfeb88) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/main/main.c:764 #11 0xfec82730 in open_file_for_scanning (file_handle=0xffbfeb88) at Zend/zend_language_scanner.c:3022 #12 0xfec82a34 in compile_file (file_handle=0xffbfeb88, type=2) at Zend/zend_language_scanner.c:3114 #13 0xfecae520 in zend_execute_scripts (type=2, retval=0x0, file_count=1) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/Zend/zend.c:934 #14 0xfecd2b74 in php_handler (r=0x297150) at /export/scratch/pkgsrc/www/ap-php/work/php-4.4.1/sapi/apache2handler/sapi_apache2.c:574 #15 0x000e3c28 in ap_run_handler (r=0x297150) at config.c:152 #16 0x000e4848 in ap_invoke_handler (r=0x297150) at config.c:364 #17 0x00114840 in ap_run_sub_req (r=0x297150) at request.c:1855 #18 0x000382a4 in handle_include (ctx=0x283660, bb=0xff

You need "or" not || here. The operator priorities are such that the above
means
$theFile = (fopen("docs/InstallationInstructionMaster.txt", "r") || die);
which assigns TRUE to $the File when the fopen() succeeds, rather than the file
handle. You can't have error reporting turned up very high, or this:
> while(!feof($theFile)){
> $theLine = fgets($theFile, 4096);
> echo $theLine . "\n";
> }
would be throwing all sorts of warnings about the invalid file handle. I'm
guessing that feof(TRUE) returns NULL as well as throwing the warning, so this
should be an infinite loop echoing just linebreaks. Oh, wait! ;)
On the other hand, the version using "or" works out to be:
($theFile = fopen("docs/InstallationInstructionMaster.txt", "r")) or die;
which assigns the result of fopen() to $theFile, and then executes die if it's
false -- which is much more satisfactory. ;)
Cheers!

On Windows, "/" in filenames is internally translated by PHP to "\" -- which
means you can write code that works on both Windows and *n*x using "/".
*Really* portable code uses the DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR constant, however.

If the very same piece of PHP produces different results in different browsers,
this *MUST* be due to differences between the browsers. It could be due to
settings in the browsers, or it might simply be a bug in one or the other --
but it can NOT NOT NOT be down to PHP. (Well, except inasmuch as you might be
able to make reasonable adjustments in your PHP to allow for the difference. ;)

Re: [PHP] php Slow with Mac OS X 10.4
I've finally narrow-it down and found a solution. After much, much googeling, trying and error on my test machine and my xserve running mac os x 10.4, I've found out that apache2 was shipped with mac os X 10.4 server (server only). I decided to compile my own php (as allways) againts this apache, and it works, and it's fast ! This apache is in /opt/apache2, and is only configured with the default from the apache distribution. The version that comes with os x 10.4 also suffers from a bug in apr preventing it from delivering more than 64k of content. But that's not important. I examined the compile option in /opt/apache2/build/config.nice, and saw something verry importent : --with-mpm=worker Php compiled againts this apache works ok. But if I compile my own apache2, with --with-mpm=worker, apache won't start saying php needs to be recompiling. Php's manual about apache2 clearly states not to use worker mpm. Ok, I took the libphp4.so from the php compiled againts the stock apache2 from /opt, and copied it into my own apache2 compiled with my usual configure options, and all is well and fast. After comparing phpinfo's output from my ususal php and the one's compiled againts /opt/apache2's apache, I only see 2 difference. Virtual Directory Support and Thread safety is enabled on the good apache from /opt/apache2... Now, after examining the output from configure command, and greping for safety and all in my source tree, I found that --enable-experimental-zts is enabling this. So, I tried agin my own php configure option, with my own apache (without specifing mpm=worker), but with --enable-experimental-zts, and voilà ! All is great. Now to my question : Why is that enabling threat safety in php afects the performance of apache2 accessing the filesystem ?

I don't see why it wouldn't have worked, but perhaps try:
at the tip-top of the page instead.
Your other option is to structure your code better so that the headers
are dealt with before any HTML output, which, honestly, is usually the
natural way things fall out if your code is well-structured...
"Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by
(output started at "
is, for me, a Red Flag, that the code is a mess and not well-structured.
YMMV

If it's in the top level directory, then maybe that directory should
be hard-coded into the include_path, as well as '.'
include_path
".:/whatever/httpd.conf/has/for/DocumentRoot:/full/path/to/PEAR"

This all rules out the above, but one possibility is this:
In just the script that gives you trouble do this:
include_path("/full/path/to/DocumentRoot:" . include_path());
This may not be the right syntax/function to set include_path, but it
is a dynamic way to set the include path, from within PHP.
Of course, for the multiple deployments, you'll need to make the path
based on the deployment somehow.
Now, on to the simple solution I intimated at the beginning...
If mod_rewrite is giving you the headaches it gives me, just get rid
of it. :-)
INSTEAD, do this.
Create a PHP script, and name it 'x'
In .htaccess, force 'x' to be PHP as far as Apache is concerned:
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
You can now access your "x=123" from $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] (or is it
'PATH_INFO'?
No more endless tweaking of Regex rules in httpd.conf and logging the
mod_rewrite and dinking with ^/[0-9]+ junk and re-starting Apache
every time you want to try a change.

E. It may not be my final choice whether they download or not, but if a browser doesn't treat: application/octet-stream as a download, and only as a download, then that browser is pretty broken.

Re: [PHP] Help with Reverse Tree Traversal using Recursion ..
Richard -
Thanks for the helpful suggestion but that won't resolve my problem
the way I currently have it written because I'm creating a new, nested
each time I loop through:
print "";
foreach ($parent as $key => $value) {
...
}
print "";
So when I tried this, the output was still inverted because it began
printing at the innermost branch of the nested list.
I'm trying to figure out a way now to save the output into an array
instead of outputting and then traversing the array in a separate
function to output it. Might run into the same problem again but I'm
hopeful that once the data is an array, I can make use of a php
function to reverse or sort the array.
Another reader also recommended this article on php and recursion:
http://www.zend.com/zend/art/recursion.php
I'll post if I get any closer,

You could load up an array with your result set:
$records=array();
$rownum=0;
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$rownum++;
records[$rownum]=$row['data'];
}
...then use $rownum/2 to determine the second column:
for ($i==1;$i<=$rownum/2;$i++){
$col1=$i;
$col2=$i+($rownum/2);
echo "$record[$col1]";
echo "$record[$col2]";
}
There are probably much better ways to do this, but this is a start.

It's certainly not a magic bullet. But I think it would help a lot of newbies get set on the right path from the get-go, of thinking about security from "Hello World" instead of trying to graft Security onto their 30,000 line forum after it gets nailed by bad guys. The residual effects are, hopefully, bigger than the direct benefit. If a good way to escape OUTPUT was also incorporated, that would be even better. But just getting folks THINKING about this kind of stuff from Day One of their PHP scripting would make a big difference. Perhaps one should use: $_ICLEAN $_OCLEAN for Input and Output. $kosher = '/[^A-Za-z0-9\\',\\.-]/'; $_ICLEAN['first_name'] = preg_replace($kosher, '', $_GET['first_name']; /* more code */ $_OCLEAN['first_name'] = htmlentities($_ICLEAN['first_name']); echo "$_OCLEAN[first_name] is way smarter than me.\n"; If you had anything other than $_OCLEAN in an echo and friends, then you would know you were screwing up. I really think it's important for the PHP community to push towards safer practices at the most basic levels. Examples in the manual, textbooks, etc. If everybody knew $_ICLEAN and $_OCLEAN meant data cleaned from input or data cleaned for output, then one could simply use them in examples instead of $_GET or $data. I'm not sure we can (or even should) go as far as Perl's tainted mode, but I think setting the right example and having an infrastructure to "do it right" would be a Good Thing. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

In my office we found it to be quite quick and easy to write a library which uses PHP session extensions to store all session data into a database (we work in a load balanced environment). We found this to be the best method of dealing with this because we did not need to deal with generating unique session id's or identifying when a session has expired thus reducing code complexity and the DB load.

Re: [PHP] Walking through a bunch of MySQL Records
First of all - remember results display in a web browser, and if you want to print these you will get results that are not like a normal printed page. Second - here's an approach. Dump all records into an array, you'll have the record count, then selectively fetch elements according to how you want them displayed. Here's a rough approximation. i = 1 col_lgth = 5 until i = 1+col_lgth+i tr td arr[i] /td td arr[ i + col_lgth ] /td /tr i ++ and keep on looping. You'll have to work out something for odd-numbered result sets, which will not give you a balanced column. Others may have more sophisticated displays, a CSS guru could probably do something tricky. I do not think you can access the $result value returned by any of the queries with an index. HTH - Miles At 03:03 PM 11/14/2005, Phillip S. Baker wrote: Greetings all, I have a question.

You could load up an array with your result set:
$records=array();
$rownum=0;
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$rownum++;
records[$rownum]=$row['data'];
}
...then use $rownum/2 to determine the second column:
for ($i==1;$i<=$rownum/2;$i++){
$col1=$i;
$col2=$i+($rownum/2);
echo "$record[$col1]";
echo "$record[$col2]";
}
There are probably much better ways to do this, but this is a start.

This may not be the right syntax/function to set include_path, but it
is a dynamic way to set the include path, from within PHP.
Yup, I tried this and it kind-of works, but still leads to some weird
behaviour.
INSTEAD, do this.
Create a PHP script, and name it 'x'
In .htaccess, force 'x' to be PHP as far as Apache is concerned:
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
You can now access your "x=123" from $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] (or is it
'PATH_INFO'?
No more endless tweaking of Regex rules in httpd.conf and logging the
mod_rewrite and dinking with ^/[0-9]+ junk and re-starting Apache
every time you want to try a change.
That's a nice trick - I'll have to remember that. My rules are
in .htaccess (as seems normal for 'deployable' systems) so I don't
need to restart apache and it's easy to twiddle with them, and
besides, I like regexes ;^) The issue isn't really the passing of
parameters (which your approach deals with very nicely), it's that
PHP gets fooled into thinking that it's somewhere that it's not. The
most annoying thing about this problem is that I'm sure it should
'just work', and I know I've seen it do so before in both my scripts
and others - Serendipity has an almost identical setup for rewrites
and it doesn't do anything special to work with them - all this
futzing with paths that mod_rewrite does is long finished by the time
that PHP gets to hear about anything - PHP never has to know the real
URL, it should be happy to deal with the rewritten one.
The problem seems to be that given the incoming URL:
/x/123
this gets rewritten to
/x.php?x=123
and it does run the correct script in the correct directory, however,
once it's running PHP acts as if it had said:
/x/x.php?x=123
Which just breaks paths everywhere. I know that this is what the
passthrough option is supposed to deal with, but removing it doesn't
help either. Maybe I should look more carefully at my RewriteBase etc.
I've asked in sitepoint apache forums too, see if anyone there has
any idea.
Thanks for the ideas.

I know that's not a common situation, but there should be nothing preventing me from doing it. There are browsers that don't do downloads at all (I've written some), there are others that do nothing but downloads (I use Interarchy for just that).

Different platforms have different line-break conventions. \n is a line feed, while \r is a carriage return (these names date from typewriters, I believe!) I think that \r\n is the standard way to separate header fields in HTTP and SMTP, but maybe it's just the most interoperable way. Everyone I know does it, so I'm just being a sheep...

[PHP] Template Question
HI All, In your template parsing classes do you put the code for tags in seperate files or do you have some kind of array or other method of assigning the action associated with the tag? I have been putting the code for the tags in a dat/tag.dat file and then including the file wherever the tag is called. For good measure I call the attributes in the tags (which a returned by a regex) as $ATTRIBUTES['name']. and then any data needing passed back from the code in the tag I call $PASSBACK['name']. Does this seem standard? I have looked through a few template parsing classes and feel it is easier to come up with my own than it is to use most of them.

I don't think there's a standard per se :) Different template systems reach for different results and employ different methods in doing so. At some point though there needs to be something to handle the content/attributes and so your inclusion system works. My own system requires that custom compilers be configured (registered) in the project config file, and then the template manager loops over each entry and allows each one to process the content in turn. Most of these custom compilers inherit from a base compiler class and so the actual parsing code is shared, upon parsing, the code performs a call to tag handling methods contained/registered in the compiler object that can process the content that was parsed. In this way custom compilers of different semantics can be plugged in with a simple registry entry. Additionally within this system the generated content can itself include custom tags/content which can subsequently be reparsed. This can cause recursion issues if the developer isn't wary, but allows for the building of custom tags based on smaller custom tags.

I'm not sure what your 'Integer' requirements are but if you use md5() or sha1(), you will more likely be able to validate the content more reliably vs crc32().
