Re: [PHP] Does JavaScript not work in php web file?
Dear Sanjeev,
you're right. I am sorry for my carelessness. I corrected my code and than try
it again. But again, it does not work as I expect.
I even put << prompt("this function is being called"); >> in the jsopsi() but
again the prompt does not come out. Pffuih... I am desperate only because of
this small thing.
Please keep telling me what's wrong with my code. Do I have to write the
JavaScript in another way if the javascript is placed in php file?

//This is my current code:

I would change it to assign it here. No need to assign it a second

already set

I would go for:
if (isset($_REQUEST['gender'])) $_SESSION['registrationGender'] =
$_REQUEST['gender'];
print isset($_SESSION['registrationGender']) ? "You are registered as
gender: ".$_SESSION['registrationGender'] : "Your gender is unknown";
And make no assumptions about a gender when you don't know any ;-)

[PHP] upload temp dir in vhost env.
Hello again; I have a question about upload temp dir as defined in php.ini; I have been working on a project that has registered users, each having a user space portion of the web site file system. I want them to be able to upload images and such and have the stuff transfered to their own user spaces. With one up load temp dir designated, how do I insure that the uploaded files get to the correct destination? Or, is it possible to designate more than one up load temp dir in php.ini. (that would be the best solution) This situation is not a virtual host environment, but one site that will be using ssl. I am using Apache on unix based host and am aware that php assigns a temp name to files that are uploaded, but if different users are uploading files concurrently, there could be a confusion as to where each file should be transfered to. I do not know where else to look for an answer to this question at present. Any knowledgeable response appreciated.

No, the best solution is for your application to grab the path to that particular user's directory and assign a unique name to the uploaded file, then move it from the temp dir: move_uploaded_file($_FILES['upload_file']['tmp_name'], $upload_path); where 'upload_file' is the name of your upload form field. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.move-uploaded-file.php I am using Apache on unix based host and am aware that php assigns a temp name to files that are uploaded, but if different users are uploading files concurrently, there could be a confusion as to where each file should be transfered to.

Re: [PHP] upload temp dir in vhost env.
Hi, that's not a problem to specify where the uploaded file has to be moved after upload. As you specify for each user a personal directory in the system, you just need to use a function like move_uploaded_file() to move the uploaded file to this directory. Each uploaded file goes to, let's say, /tmp (the directory specified in your php config), and inherits from a unique filename. This filename is contained in the $_FILES array available in the script which handles the upload. So if you have a form containing a file upload field called "file", you can retrieve the filename of the newly uploaded file using: $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'] (if the upload went successfully). You can then simply use: move_uploaded_file( $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], '/path/to/user/personal/dir'); This will work even if multiple users are uploading a file at the same time, as the $_FILES array will contain the info related to a single user. I hope I've been clear enough...

[PHP] How do I delete a composite key?
Im trying to delete a composite key but cannot figure out the proper format.
Would somebody tell me where im messing up? I have an url that is supposed
to send the member id and game id to a delete query. And the delete query is
supposed to grab the id's based on type.
This is the link:
href=\"member_commit.php?action=remove&type=Member&id={$record->Member_id}&gametype=Game&id={$record->Game_id}\">[GAME
REMOVAL]\n";
This is the code that recieves the link information:
case "remove":
switch ($_GET['type']) {
case "Member":
if (!isset($_GET['do']) || $_GET['do'] != 1) {
?>
Are you sure you want to delete this ?
yes
or Index
WHERE Member_id = '" . mysql_real_escape_string((int)$_GET['id'])
. " .
AND Game_id = '" . mysql_real_escape_string((int)$_GET['id']) . "'";
}
}

RE: [PHP] Does JavaScript not work in php web file?
Hi,
I tried this code by removing PHP codes and made as HTML. As you said prompt
dint come to me also. When I checked JavaScript errors then I saw that
prompt function had some errors (like ; in wrong place). I have corrected
the errors in script.
function jsopsi(){
prompt("This prompt comes out if this function is really being called");
if(document.formulir.opsinegara.value!="Virgina Islands (USA)"){
document.formulir.opsistate.options[5].selected=true;
}
}
And the complete code after converting to HTML is as follows.
guru.com - Menu for new customer
function jsopsi(){
prompt("This prompt comes out if this function is really being called");
if(document.formulir.opsinegara.value!="Virgina Islands (USA)"){
document.formulir.opsistate.options[5].selected=true;
}
}

Nathan Nobbe wrote: look at C++, Java, and PHP. these languages are all written in C; Just wanted to pick you up on this. PHP is the only language you've listed that only has a single implementation. There are implementations of C++ compilers that are writting in other languages. I can't speak for Java since I have little experience but I'd be surprised if all implementations are written in C. PHP could easily (although lengthily) be re-implemented in another language, including PHP itself if you were sufficiently mad. they are high level, and although php allows you to write proceedrual code, i think it is best used from an oop paradigm. This would be a personal choice. Just like C++ "allows you to write procedural code" there are times when OOP makes sense and times when procedural is "better". It's a choice that should be left up to the developer, and the argument over whether OOP is better than procedural is not winnable. It's in the same league as PHP vs Python. -Stut -- http://stut.net/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Your URL contains 2 instances of a GET variable named, which you then

Game_id. Change the name of one or both IDs and you should be ok.

[PHP] Adding text before last paragraph
I have a string with some HTML paragraphs, like so: $text="First paragraph\nMore text\nSome more text\nEnd of story"; I'd like to add an image before the last paragraph. I know that preg_replace can replace only the first n occurrences of a string, but how can I replace the _last_ occurrence of a string? My initial idea was to do this: 1) Count how many times "\n" occurs as $n 2) Replace them all with "\n\n" 3) Replace $n-1 replacements back to "\n" Is there a cleaner way? Thanks in advance.

If the string really really ENDS on that LAST "", then you can key
off of that:
$story = preg_replace("|(.*\$|Umsi",
"$new_paragraph\n\\1", $story;
You may have to fiddle with the DOT_ALL setting to only match the true
end of string and not just any old "\n" within the string...

Another possiblity, if you are trying to write this more generically,
would be to use:
?id[game]=$record->Game_id&id[Member]=$record->Member_id
$_GET['id'] will then be an array that looks something like this:
array('game' => 42, 'member' => 17);
You would then iterate through $_GET['id'] and show all the factors
that are going into the query/delete.

You could also do:
echo "", str_replace("\n", "\n", $text), "\n";
Another option, if the text is more pre-formatted or ASCII-art like,
is to wrap it in tags -- or style it with CSS as, errr,
whatever, instead of tags.

I didn't follow your code, but I think your answer lies in here
somewhere:
$array1 = explode(',', $string1);
$array2 = explode(',', $string2);
$diff1 = array_diff($array1, $array2);
$diff2 = array_diff($array2, $array1);
$diff = array_merge($diff1, $diff2);
var_dump($diff1);
var_dump($diff2);
var_dump($diff);

No, that's pretty much it.
Except you should get with the times and use:
$_SESSION['loginid'] = $loginid;
and then:
isset($_SESSION['loginid']);

The XML stuff, if you need to parse XML a lot, which is not exactly a niche market, but not everybody needs it either. That said: PHP 4 end of shelf life is just that. It's software that you're simply going to see less and less of as fewer and fewer hosts/distros use it. If you analyze the situation more carefully, I think you'll find that the statistics about PHP 4 versus PHP 5 adoption are pretty skewed by large-scale webhosts that are offering PHP 5 now, but aren't pushing their clients to move to a new box with PHP 5, nor upgrading to PHP 5 on the box they are using. Will they start pushing their clients or upgrading PHP out from under them? Probably some of both. Will PHP 4 suddenly disappear from the face of the Earth in December? Or course not. Should you jump through hoops to write new code that works in both 4 and 5? Probably not, as PHP 5 is readily available to anybody. Should your old code that runs on 4 be made to run on 5? Maybe not today, or even tomorrow, but unless you want to co-lo your own box with software for which even Security updates aren't available after Aug 8, 2008 (I think that's the date), then, yeah, you probably should re-write any code that won't run on 5.

Don't use http://php.net/extract on $_REQUEST would be the same as enabling register_globals again. There is no real difference from a SECURITY stand-point between GET or POST or COOKIE. They are all equally trivial to inject any data the user chooses.

So the blanket statement to never use $_REQUEST is probably ill-advised. Use $_POST when you expect the data to always be in POST data. Use $_GET when you expect the data to alwasy be in GET data. If you actually want to accept HTTP requests of either kind for flexibility to an external user, by all means use REQUEST. You must, of course, also factor in that you should never ever use POST for a non-idempotent operation. Or, in layman's terms, if the script *changes* data, use POST and not GET.

No, it only relies on one "Designer" who wants their request to look like a FORM and another "Designer" who wants their request to look like a link. And I don't really *CARE* if the search terms (or whatever input it its) comes from GET versus POST as there is NO Security difference whatsoever.

You're still not getting the point. There *ARE* valid reasons for allowing GET and POST to be used inter-changably. Consider a stupid simple web "service" that lets you look up Longitude, Latitude by zip code from their own website. Do you really CARE if they use a link or a form to REQUEST the long/lat with the zip input? No. You don't. So go ahead and use REQUEST. And register_globals should be off, and using REQUEST does not "undo" *anything* that was done by register_globals being turned off. >> Use $_POST when you expect the data to always be in POST data. > > correct. > >> Use $_GET when you expect the data to alwasy be in GET data. > > correct. > >> If you actually want to accept HTTP requests of either kind for >> flexibility to an external user, by all means use REQUEST. > > In my opinion a properly coded web application shouldn't be lazy and > should know the source of data.

I have fought with SOAP in PHP 5, and PHP 4, and I think maybe even PHP 3 (shudder). I've used nuSoap, and I think I used PEAR::SOAP once.

I believe it will handle the whatsit tag namespace-y thingie you are getting with that business better than nuSoap, as I recall.

Correct. The OP could use rpm and/or up2date to just get the php-mssql package if they installed from rpm to start with. If they compiled from source, they should be able to go back to the source and ./configure --with-mssql=shared, and then make and then copy the php-mssql.so file into their extensions dir.

Can you give us an example of two strings where the comparison fails?
I suspect you are looking for the number of "entries" in the
string, rather than the length of the string. For example:
$string1 = "1,2,3,4,5,6,9";
$string2 = "1,2,3,10,11,12";
number of entries in $string1 is 7, number of entries in
$string2 is 6, but length($string1) = 13, while
length($string2) = 14. Is this the problem you are seeing?
Yes that is the problem $string2 is what is saved in the database and
string1 is coming from a form. The form has every thing that is in the
database but could have some items added and some removed. I need to know
what is different so I can add to or remove from a separate table so both
tables are the same.
How about something like
$array_string1 = explode(',' , $string1);
$array_string2 = explode(',' , $string2);
$len_string1 = count($array_string1);
$len_string2 = count($array_string2);
Now you can compare the number of elements in $string1 ($len_string1)
vs. the number of elements in $string2 ($len_string2). And the two
arrays can be compared to see what the differences are.
You haven't really provided enough information about what is really
going on (nor is it necessary to do so), but is it possible that the
two strings could be different but have the same number of elements?
If so, then the lenght of the strings is not particularly relevant,
and you might just want to compare the specific elements of both
strings with each other.

[PHP] Database includes
I'm curious as to how everyone organises and includes their classes in PHP5. Let's take a simple example that has 3 classes: customer, order, and database. The database class has a base sql db class (I know there is PDO and other things but this class is already written and working) and classes that inherit from the base class for dev, test, and prod, passing the associated logins. The customer and order will both use the appropriate database class depending on which environment its in (e.g., SalesDevDB, SalesTestDB, SalesProdDB). I don't want to have to go into the customer and order class code and change which db class it uses when I move it from dev to test and from test to prod. What's the proper way to handle this? Or am I way off base? Thanks. Regards, Bruce -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You'd really have to take that up with Steffan Esser and the Core PHP Dev Team... They had differences of opinion about where to draw the line in the sand on some PHP Security issues which led to Steffan starting Suhosin and eventually withdrawing from the team.

Hi Bruce,
Use a factory or singleton pattern to instantiate your database objects,
and you can centralize the choice.
public $production = 'Dev'; // or 'Test' or 'Prod'
static function factory($dbname, $args)
{
if (!class_exists($dname . self::$production . 'DB')) {
require 'However/You/Find/It.php';
}
$db = $dname . self::$production . 'DB';
return new $db($args);
}
Singleton would simply return a pre-instantiated object if it exists for
that class type but is otherwise the same.

What's the proper way to handle this? Or am I way off > base? The best way to handle that is to not use 3 separate classes. You should have one and only one code base that works on all installations. Then have a config file of some sort in which you specify your DB credentials. There's a variety of ways to do that (ini file, a PHP file with a database url, a PHP file that just has a couple of variables in it, or constants instead, etc.). Pick one you like. Then have your DB connection class read that file's data one way or another and connect as appropriate. If you have to modify anything other than a single config file in order to move your site/app from one server to another, then you have a design flaw. (I'd say that applies for moving the site to a subdirectory on a server too, but that takes a bit more effort.)

A lot of times it's easier to just delete all the old rows and insert all the new ones. It may even be FASTER than using PHP logic to work out what is different.

E. You don't. Well, okay, you *COULD* install the "Run-Kit" extension and then you can over-ride whatever you want, I think. Maybe not language constructs like 'if' and 'echo' and 'include' but any function.

To me newbies picked up PHP easily because "hey, this query string variable is $foo just like when I do a post variable of $foo!" and $_REQUEST to them is their way to get around a register_globals = off installation.

Re: [PHP] Best Practices for calling 'setup' classes that extend 'parent' classes?
Put all your classes into a single directory structure.
Use http://php.net/set_include_path (or php.ini or .htaccess) to
provide the FULL PATH to that directory.
PHP now knows where to "start" its search, and essentially prepends
that directory when it does an include.
Assume this directory structure:
/path/to/your/includes
parent_class.php
/child
some_child_class.php
This works:
Do not under any circumstances try to use './' or '../' in your
include statements. You will only make yourself miserable in the long
run.

I would expect that you need to wrap the try catch block *IN* the code
to be eval'd...
You sound like you know what you're doing, but I'm still gonna say it:
If eval is the solution, you probably didn't understand the problem. :-)

You can add the primary key, no problem. However, it might be kind of silly... For a lookup table, you probably have: member_id |game_id 1 | 1 1 | 3 1 | 17 2 | 1 2 | 5 . . . USUALLY you can just have the unique key be the composite key of member_id, game_id and you just delete "where member_id = $m and game_id = $g" The data itself is the key, so to speak, because there can only be one of each member/game combo, and it's unique all by itself. Using an extra field for a key is only a "problem" if you have a zillion members/games to the point where the "extra" space matters on your hard drive. In this day and age, you'd have to have a LOT of members and games for an INT or even BIGINT to make that much difference on the hard drive. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?

[PHP] Re: PHP eval() fatal error
When re-writing this example to a form of "create_function", the same
problem occurs:
$temporaryCalculationFunction = @create_function('', $code); // E_ERROR
here
if ($temporaryCalculationFunction === FALSE) {
$returnValue = '#N/A';
} else {
$returnValue = call_user_func_array($temporaryCalculationFunction,
array());
}
} catch (Exception $ex) {
$returnValue = '#N/A';
}
?>
Now I would expect that when I feed "create_function" invalid code
(syntax), the function returns false. It doesn't!
E_ERROR is thrown right away. In my opinion, this should return FALSE,
and only throw an E_ERROR when the created function is executed...
Before telling me to read the manual: I did over a hundred times, on
both eval and create_function: create_function is not documented to
throw E_ERROR right away, instead returning FALSE on error... Exactly
what I was thinking using the above code.
Now let's repeat my question: is there any way to gracefully evaluate
specific code, eventually catch an error and respond to that, without
using parsekit() or launching another process to get this done?
Regards,
Maarten
PS: Eval/create_function is in place in my code, I don't see any other
method to execute (filtered, of course !!!) PHP code that is embedded in
a string.

Thanks, Richard, I was also trying to use a regex with pre_replace and
getting nowhere. In the manual page for strrpos, there is a
user-comment function for finding the last occurrence of a string:
http://il2.php.net/manual/en/function.strrpos.php#56735
However, I am unable to piece 2 and 2 together.
Note that I'm adding a paragraph before the last paragraph, so I'm
searching for the last instance of "\n".
This is what I've done to your code, but I'm unable to get much further:
$text = preg_replace("|(\n)\$|Umsi", "\nTest\n", $text);
