Re: [PHP] passing checkbox info
1)Name value pairs of check boxes which are checked will be
returned.
2)To figure out which check box is returning "yes" you can use the
keys of the cbox[] array which is returned. That is if your query
returns 10 rows .. and user checks checkbox 1,3 and 5 out of those
.. then $cbox[0], $cbox[2],$cbox[4] .. will have values "yes".
3)Then you can use $checked = array_keys($cbox) .. and $checked
will be an array having all the keys of returned cbox array. ie
(0,2,4) in the above case.

Re: [PHP] PHP IDEs
Even I would be very interested to know what every one out there uses for these. I use PhpMyAdmin for creating tables. Textpad for coding.

[PHP] file uploads problem
Hi,
(Linux RH 7.1, Apache/1.3.22, PHP 4.0.6).
I am trying to write a script to send emails. It needs to support
attachments. The point where I am stuck is after the file to be
attached gets uploaded to /tmp as /tmp/tempfilename thorough an
HTTP POST form.
I am not able to open that file directly .. follwing error shows
up.
Warning: fopen("/tmp/phpOaILXx","rb") - Operation not
permitted in
/var/www/vhosts/mydomain/httpsdocs/lib/email.inc.php
on line 254
I tried to copy this file using
move_uploaded_file($userfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file");
and here a strange thing happened. The file was successfully
copied BUT it had permissions like -rw-- which I interpret as
only accessible to root. I tried copy() function instead and it
failed.
I think I have tried every thing I could think of .. so please
HELP :)

Re: Re: [PHP] file uploads problem
Thanks .. but I think you are saying exactly what I wrote I was
doing .. except that you have used exec("cp $file $path") while I
tried PHP's copy() function .. I don't think that will make a
difference...though will give that a try any way.
Forgot to mention in my previous mail that the directory where I
am trying to copy the uploaded file from /tmp is in 777 mode
already.

Re: Re: [PHP] file uploads problem
No Edwin .. I can't do any thing to that file .. not even from my
ftp client .. can't download can't change permissions ..
The server is managed by rackspace .. I doubt they would do some
thing like running apache as root which I "hear" is a v foolish
thing to do (frankly I don't know how to figure it out myself
..if that is the case .. phpinfo() did not say any thing on
that.)
A brief restatement of problem
File uploaded via HTTP POST to /tmp OK
After this I tried the following three things and none worked.
a) fopen("/tmp/temp_file_name","rb") FAILED (Operation not
permitted)
b) copy($tempfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file") FAILED
c) move_uploaded_file($userfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file")
DID COPY BUT file had -rw permissions, and could not open
this file either... so back to square 1
The directory in "/place/to/put/uploaded/file is mode 777 .
Still fighting it out.
Regards
Jaski
