I wouldn't bother - you won't escape the spammers anyway. :-(

You can always convert an email address as image.no one can read but humans.
i think this is a simple solution.

When I read Ashley's reply, I figured why not use the other php interpreter?
The one the web server uses? It worked :-). Thanks Ashley.

Just for academic interest, I have put up the output of phpinfo I get with
the command line php interpreter at pastebin. This still does not work, but
that's immaterial now.

Hi,

Further to this the actual regulation is here:

http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2002/20022013.htm

The relevant line from this:

6(c) the details of the service provider, including his electronic mail
address, which make it possible to contact him rapidly and communicate
with him in a direct and effective manner;



It must be stressed that these laws were written before spam became 90%+
of all email communication (2002). So I suspect it could be argued that
a contact form can be allowed to bypass your normal email spam checking
and is therefore a quicker way to communicate effectively.

IANAL ;)

The link you gave is indeed 8 years old, whereas the one I gave is a lot
more current (3 years) and well after what you call the period of spam
(which really started kicking off big-time before 2002 anyway) Either
way, I don't think you can 'argue' with a law if you're a business. A
personal website is not under such restrictions, but there are lots a
business has to go through, and a business potentially faces more
repercussions from breaking laws, however daft or imposing they may be.

You could, I guess, claim ignorance, but that doesn't offer much
protection on a law that's 3 years old...

Thanks,
Ash

[PHP] export from one server to another

[Merlin Morgenstern]

HI there,

I am thinking about building a partner network where partners can export 
content to my server which will then be imported. It should be as easy 
as possible for the partner and not rely on any special php functions.



The best way to do this I guess is to deliver them a php file which will 
create a xml structure that I can import. The problem I have now is, how 
to transfer this xml-file to my server? Of course I could do this via 
FTP, but then they need to have FTP enabled inside their php 
installation. This might scare some partners away.


Does anybody have a good suggestion on how to do this?

Thank you for any hint,

Merlin

I'd use the POST method in HTTP. With this, on a simple page you can 
read the XML file, and through the POST method, you can reach it. You 
can put the XML in a POST variable, but you can also use File input 
control in HTML to read and upload the file. You don't have to use FTP.

You could allow them to upload XML files to your server with a plain
upload form.

I doubt though that'll you'll convince many people to setup a local PHP
installation for the purposes of creating one XML file. Setting up PHP
for the first time can be a tricky thing for a lot of people to do.

We have just done something similar. We went down the SOAP route as
this allows third parties to be able to take our WSDL file (which
describes the services we offer) and create their own code from it,
essentially wrapping the SOAP comms in a class of language x. I used a
slightly modified wsdl2php class from sourceforge to create my client
classes for our own service, rather than manually creating them, as a
proof of concept. So wsdl2java, wsdl2net (if such things exist) would
do a similar job.

For us, the biggest advantage of SOAP over say REST was that SOAP is a
documented standard (with all its faults). We can supply a single
document which is man and machine readable and fully describes our
service. Admittedly, we used the Zend SOAP, WSDL and AutoDiscovery
classes for all of this, so really, we did VERY little in terms of
creating the SOAPy bits.

We have an Authentication service and then a series of services which
retrieve and supply data. We incorporated version control into all the
classes. So, V1 is where we are today. As we increase functionality,
we can incorporate a "superseded by" mechanism, which the end-user can
take into account if they so wish. The WSDL file will have the latest
info, they can re-generate their classes from the WSDL file and then
take advantage of the new functionality.

If we find a problem which essentially breaks the contract, we can
kill a version. And if if has a superseded by, we are again,
automatically informing the client of the newer code.

Add to that live (default), test (we think this is what you asked for)
and dev (this is where we are at the moment if you really want to see
something) requests for a particular version. As dev becomes test, the
dev is "killed" and "superseded by" the test and then the same for the
test -> live (with test's not being killed).

So. A simple enough setup, but allows us to move at our own pace in
terms of further development, allows us to incorporate requests and
bespoke requests to meet the needs of our partners ... all good. And
it was good fun doing this. Admittedly, there were a few bugs in the
Zend code I had to fix (all patches have been supplied but awaiting
someone to commit them to the code).

Richard.

Use glob() to get a list of matching afiles nd then unlink() them

Make sure you don't accidentally delete files you need. Once you've got
the list of files with the glob() function as Adrian mentioned, don't
just loop through and delete them all, as you could end up removing a
file which you really need later.

I think he means MySQL Query Analyzer, but I'm not sure how that is  
an answer to the question though!

Yes. MySQL Query Analyzer.
I read that it has single user login capability.
Is that not what you were wanting?

Erm...

According to mysql.com it's for Java and .Net (no mention of PHP) and it
doesn't look like the source is released, so you can't reverse engineer
it, so I don't see how it's an answer to the OP's question.

That contains some PHP classes which are based upon the WSDL file. The
conversion is with the sourceforge wsdl2php project (with some mods).

In YOUR code ...

date = '2010/01/01';

// Run the search.
$TourSearchResponse = $Service->TourSearch($TourSearchRequest);

// Dump the response (expecting it to be of class TourSearchResponse.
var_dump($TourSearchResponse);
}

catch(Exception $ex)
{
// Dump the exception, taking note of faultstring and faultcode as
these are SOAP Server generated errors.
var_dump($ex);
}
?>

But this is generating a SOAP exception on the server, so the client
code won't help here.

["faultstring"]=>string(96) "Server was unable to process request.
---> Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
["faultcode"]=>string(11) "soap:Server"
["detail"]=>string(0) ""

How are you building the WSDL file? By hand? If so, I would recommend
learning about using DocBlocks and a tool to auto generate the WSDL
file.

I use a modified version of Zend's SOAP, WSDL and AutoDiscovery tools
to build my WSDL files from my source code.

I then use a modified sourceforge's wsdl2php project to convert the
wsdl file to normal PHP classes which do all the wrapping of the SOAP
comms for me and let's me use normal PHP coding as if all the services
were local and not on a remote server.

Richard.

I don't think there's an accessible way of doing this. Anything that
allows a screen reader to speak the email address would also be
susceptible to spammers email scrapers.

Thanks,

Copy-n-paste just gives you the email address backwards; screen readers,
because we are using logical ordering and it is stored in memory the way we
expect to read it, will read it correctly. 

I was not aware that email harvesters used screen readers. Do you have some
documentation I could read to get up to speed on this?

[PHP] How could I mix popen() and pcntl_alarm() function ?

[Chian Hsieh]

Hi,

I want to use tail command to tail the file by popen and trigger the
function signal() by every 3 secs.

Here is my example code:

declare(ticks = 1);
// Unreachable function
function signal($signal) {
  echo "SIGALRM\n";
  pcntl_alarm(3);
}

pcntl_signal(SIGALRM, "signal");
pcntl_alarm(3);
$fpcmd = popen("tail -f my.log", 'r');
while (!feof($fpcmd)) {
   $line = fgets($fpcmd);
   echo $line;
}


Unfortunately, the signal() function is never reached.
Why ? Could someone help me ?

Thanks for your help.

REST is a concept, not a protocol (as I understand it), so you cannot
just create a service and supply a contract file. You have to document
the service in some other way and then the users have to write all the
code.

If there was a REST+DocBlock => wsdl_like_file then I could take the
wsdl_like_file and produce my classes to access your service. I
wouldn't need to care about the protocol.

In fact, using the Zend framework as I've suggested, I've not written
a single line of XML parsing, or header extraction or anything. Just
talked to some local classes as if there was no distance between the
client and the server.

Client_class extends base_soap_client_c

I didn't say the harvesters used screen readers. I'm saying that if
something is in plain text that a screen reader can understand, what's
to stop an email address harvester? It's not worth their time to analyse
every image (think about where Google is with image searching right now,
and they have a lot more resources at their disposal) but it is easy
enough to read text in a web page. At a push, it's possible to believe
that some might be using rendered CSS to see how an email is rendered.

Thing is, it's nigh on impossible to hide an email address. Use it once
on a mailing list like this and it's there for the whole world to see on
archive listings. I even though that my email wouldn't be found in
a .pdf CV I'd made, but thanks to Google it is now!

Basically, it might not be worth the effort to hide email addresses, and
instead see about setting up spam filtering at the server level. You
don't have to download and filter it your end, and it saves on
bandwidth.

Ash

No, because Java and Javascript are not the same thing at all, and this
program doesn't control user logins, it's for analysing MySQL queries,
hence its name!

The enhanced MySQL Query Analyzer is available via the latest release

I know it's a concept, but using that concept as the "language" or
"data transport" and the data format being JSON. I could try to map
these to OSI model or TCP/IP model levels but I can't be bothered. I
just find SOAP to be too bloated and an annoyance to work with.

I mean, technically, a SOAP request is "RESTful" too since it can use
POST or GET... but I don't like to consider it RESTful :)

What version of PHP are you running?

Read: http://php.net/declare

I found this at the bottom of the declare page.

[quote]
The encoding declare value is ignored in PHP 5.3 unless php is compiled with
--enable-zend-multibyte.
[/quote]

Also, doesn't look like you are using the "register_tick_function()" function.

Is it required?  Not sure, but their examples show its usage.

You'll be looking for something like this (untested):

SELECT * FROM a
LEFT JOIN b ON (a.pid = b.pid)
WHERE (b.aid = 1 AND b.value > 100) OR (b.aid = 3 AND b.value = 'jpg')

Obviously instead of the * you may have to change to a list of field
names to avoid fieldname collision on the two tables.

RE: [PHP] SQL Syntax

[Jan Reiter]

Thanks. That was my first attempt, too. Only this will throw out rows, that 
meet only one of the conditions, too. For example, I would get all pictures 
that are bigger than 100, regardless of type, and all pictures that are of type 
jpg, no matter the size. 

Doing it with a view would be an option, but that would immensely decrease 
flexibility.  

I guess I have to keep on cooking my brain on this ;-) 

I think I did it before, a few years ago when MySQL didn't support views yet, 
but I can't find that stuff ...

This isn't exactly a PHP question, but since mysql is the most popular

I have 2 tables. Table A containing 2 fields. A user ID and a picture ID =>

attribute ID and a value for that attribute => B(pid,aid,value).

 

Table B contains several rows for a single PID with various AIDs and values.
Each AID is unique to a PID.  (e.g. AID = 1 always holding the value for the
image size and AID = 3 always holding a value for the image type)

 

The goal is now to join table A on table B using pid, and selecting the rows
based on MULTIPLE  attributes. 

 

So the result should only contain rows for images, that relate to an
attribute ID = 1 (size) that is bigger than 100 AND!!! an attribute ID =

I think maybe your table structure could do with a little work, as it
doesn't lend itself to simple queries. It could probably be done the way
you need with sub-queries, but as the tables become more populated and
more people are triggering the queries, this is going to become very
slow.

[PHP] SQL Syntax

[Jan Reiter]

Hi folks!

I'm kind of ashamed to ask a question, as I haven't followed this list very
much lately. 

 

This isn't exactly a PHP question, but since mysql is the most popular
database engine used with php, I figured someone here might have an idea.

 

I have 2 tables. Table A containing 2 fields. A user ID and a picture ID =>
A(uid,pid) and another table B, containing 3 fields. The picture ID, an
attribute ID and a value for that attribute => B(pid,aid,value).

 

Table B contains several rows for a single PID with various AIDs and values.
Each AID is unique to a PID.  (e.g. AID = 1 always holding the value for the
image size and AID = 3 always holding a value for the image type)

 

The goal is now to join table A on table B using pid, and selecting the rows
based on MULTIPLE  attributes. 

 

So the result should only contain rows for images, that relate to an
attribute ID = 1 (size) that is bigger than 100 AND!!! an attribute ID =
5 that equals 'jpg'. 

 

I know that there is an easy solution to this, doing it in one query and I
have the feeling, that I can almost touch it with my fingertips in my mind,
but I can't go that final step, if you know what I mean. AND THAT DRIVES ME
CRAZY!!

 

I appreciate your thoughts on this.

 

Regards,

Jan

Fwd: [PHP] How could I mix popen() and pcntl_alarm() function ?

[Chian Hsieh]

Hi,

my PHP version is PHP 5.2.4-2.

I was according to the example in page ( pcntl_alarm() function doc page )
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pcntl-alarm.php

In that page,
the register_tick_function()
does not register any function, and it's work on that example in above URI.

In my try and error experiment, I think the SIGALRM does not trigger because
we called popen() function.

Could anyone help ?
Thanks
