RE: [PHP] open_basedir
Ulrich, Pretty sure that the way to fix this will be to make sure that PHP just can't read those files... so that the apache (or whatever server) user that runs the PHP [module/binary] doesn't have access to read them. If you are concerned specifically about /etc/passwd, shadow it. You can find more information in the HOWTO's off of RedHat's site or at linux.com. This may not be correct, but I'm fairly certain. I trust someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

RE: [PHP] Running PHP as a cron job....
Otay... So, to get the shebang right, you need to know the path to the php binary... it may not be where I said it was... You probably already figured that out. You will also need to set it executable. It looks, from what you sent, that crond is interpreting the php file (and not having much luck) So... I'm not extremely familiar with cron, so, let me guess a little... in your /etc/cron.hourly (or whatever) directory, you've got this script, right? My guess would be, if you 'chmod +x file' on this, with the shebang (with proper path) it will work.

RE: [PHP] Running PHP as a cron job....
Interesting method, with the lynx... I imagine that if you've only built the DSO, then that would be the way to do it.. if it worked. My guess would be, you would have to do lynx 'http://localhost/path/to/script/script.php' to force it to go through the server. TO be totally honest with you, I'm too lazy to learn bash scripting, so I've been using php (it's fast and easy and does everything I need!

[PHP] telnetty/phpy/unixy thing
Hey all... I tried sending this earlier... accidentally sent it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], then tried bouncing it to the write address... anyway, apologies if it didn't work correctly. Anyhoo... I'm trying to get a piece of information from a server in the field that responds to a certain command with a line of data... ie 'telnet machine temp' and it gives back "MACHINE:75.3" (temperature). Anyway, there's a bunch of other stuff you can do to it with rsh, but that's not directly important. I'm trying to build a web interface to control these machines. Basically, I need to have PHP call 'telnet machine temp' and have it feed out whatever the machine returns... I've tried exec(), system(), passthru(), and backticks, all without success. I imagine that the reason for this is that telnet isn't routing it's stuff to STDOUT (or whatever it is that php reads from in this situation). Now, get this. If I use my php binary (shell scripting with php! wh00!) it works dandy... the temp gets passed on, yadda yadda yippy. But the second you try from a web browser, no dice. Now, I may be completely off track here... it may be that for some reason that I don't understand, telnet isn't actually outputting anything... I suspect it is, though. So... any ideas how I can get what I want?

Re: [PHP] highlighting keywords problem
Why not do something that parses the text, and put's tags around the text, and use a stylesheet to highlight it? The problem (that I can find) is that you are using eregi_replace(), which is case-insensitive. You may need to do something like strpos() to find the beginning and ends of the word, and using eregi_replace() to replace the the spaces on either side of it with " " and " ". I have a killer headache right now, otherwise I'd write some code => Sorry!

Re: [PHP] php in html-- what gives?
Put it in a .php file. Your webserver probably doesn't interpret PHP in HTML files (as is proper). If it MUST be in a HTML file, you'll have to set up your webserver to interpret php in html files... that process depends on your webserver.

Re: [PHP] The BIG Question
It can be used for (nearly) anything, it seems. Sure, making dynamic web sites is cool... not necessarily database driven, but perhaps driven by user input. I'm currently using PHP as my primary shell scripting language... I have a collection of scripts that manipulate directories full of digital images that I've taken (or scanned from my film photography)... I can be used to create web-based interfaces to traditionally command-line tasks... for instance, another project I'm working on (that unfortunately will need to be moved to java due to the need for multiple threads and draw-anywhere capabilities) is a website that monitors machines on my network that are out in the field... queries them for the temperature, status of some services, etc etc... the command execution functions (system(), exec(), etc) really make PHP incredibly powerful. What else? Do you have a particular application that you think might be able to use php for?

That seems much more complicated than I need. I understand that the POST operation stores the data from the form in the message headers...

RE: [PHP] HTTP header question.
All I want to do is output "Authentication failed" above the form if they type in invalid credentials. I want to do it by passing a header that contains the same information as if there were a form submitted that contained a field name "failed" and value "true".

RE: [PHP] HTTP header question.
THANK YOU. Finally. Unfortunately, in brief tests, I can't get it to work, but I will continue to beat on it. That's exactly what I was getting at.

The way that I did it was by using sessions which if you have a login you are probably using anyways. One of my session variables is "message". That way I can pass messages back and forth to pages, reinitialize them after the message has been received, etc etc etc. If you REALLY want to use headers this is what Lawrence Sheed (thanks Lawrence) sent me: header "POST /index.php3 HTTP/1.1"; header "Host: $host"; header "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" ; header "Content-length: ". strlen ($data); header "Connection: close\n\n"; //may only need one, can't remember if header postpends \n //Now print variables //var1=information&var2=more //for each var to submit header "$$var1=$var1&$$var2=$var2"; I eventually went a different route, but he said this emulates a POST.

RE: [PHP] THE END OF the HTTP header question.
If you try to do this and find that it's barfing out the headers, use this: include "include/class.http_post.php"; $poster = new http_post(); $poster->set_action("http://$HTTP_HOST$RAMS_ROOT/login.php";); $poster->set_element("failure",true); $poster->set_enctype("multipart/form-data"); $return = $poster->send(0); echo eregi_replace("^HTTP.*html>", "", $return); Just thought I'd stick a little hint along with it.
