RE: [PHP] Netscape problems with PHP
$PHP_SELF is set by the web server - not the browser. Problems in Netscape are almost always caused by incomplete syntax in the HTML code you've output. Netscape is more strict about this than IE.

No martin, it doesn't work properly - I just tested it. The problem is the qmail program. It pick the From address out as the subscription address, and it should pick out the From: address instead. They are not the same for everyone, including me. The From address is set to my login name and machine name, i.e. [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, I am subscribed under the name [EMAIL PROTECTED] Qmail picks up the subscribe address properly, but not the unsubscribe.

All broswers simply interpret the html, javascript, java, etc.that gets sent to them. PHP is not a factor in whatever is causing a browser to misbehave. For Netscape it's often an improperly formed table that causes trouble. I occassionally find that people also use IE-centric code without realizing it (or perhaps without caring initially).

Tyler, the manual pages appear to have changed sometime recently. They
used to state that the cookie would expire if no time was passed to it
when the browser was closed. I do not see that statement there any
longer.
However, note the remarks about older versions of some browsers not
setting cookies properly unless the time is specified. I have not
concerned myself with that on my sites, but it may be a factor to you.

The way I approach this, besides blocking execution, is to put any sensitive files in a directory above the Document Root for the virtual domain. PHP can then reach it, but Apache won't. /var/www/domain.name /var/www/domain.name/htdocs<-- php scripts go here /var/www/domain.name/private <-- inc files go here Billy -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] bug in echo function?
I ran across a curious bug in the echo function this morning. My PHP is
Debian binary 4.1.1-1.
The first example below does not work (it should draw a
checkerboard-like table):
-
Chess
";
for ($j=0 ; $j<8 ; $j++) {
echo "" . ($i*8)+$j . "";
}
echo "\n";
}
?>
-
However, by changing the echo line to two echo lines, it works as
desired:
-
Chess
";
for ($j=0 ; $j<8 ; $j++) {
echo "";
echo ($i*8)+$j . "";
}
echo "\n";
}
?>
-
I don't see any limitations about concatenating strings in the man page
of the echo statement. Perhaps this is a bug?

Hmmm - so my assumption that the concatenation operator between the
strings gives them a delination equivalent to listing this as three
separate echo statements is incorrect, I take it.
Shouldn't the echo function process it in this manner from a standpoint
of consistency?
Thanks for the clarification.

So would you rather just use pre-compiled binaries from some company that says "trust me"? You're responsible for the code on your site. If it's open-source one at least has a fighting chance of examining it. If it's too complex for someone to understand, then they shouldn't use it.
