[PHP] object method overloading

[PHP] Login / Authentication Class
I've been developing a simple (protecting nuclear secrets it aint) login /
authentication class library.
This code is designed to -
1. check unname & password are completed
2. check uname & password contain only permitted chars (a-z,1-9)
3. match user against dbase user table
4. generate a unique session token
5. store session token in dbase
6. set client side session cookie
I've attached the code here in the hope that it may be of use to some of
you. I also welcome any feedback regarding problems / security shortcomings
or ways it can be improved.
Happy Coding...
Notes -
-- dbase is postgres (dbase stuff should probably should be abstracted to
make the code platform independant)
-- password encyrption is done using CRYPT_STD_DES rather than md5 because
of legacy data (passwords in current dbase are crypted like this)
Here's the code...
begin index.html >>
end index.html
begin doLogin.inc >>
uname = $uname;
$this->pass = $pass;
$this->cookieName = "cookieName";
$this->authUser();
}
// validate & authenticate
function authUser(){
// check that both uname & password are complete
$this->loginDataComplete();
// check uname & pass contain only valid chars
$this->validateLogin();
// create dbase object
$db = new db();
// encrypt password
$cryptedpass = crypt($this->pass,"CRYPT_STD_DES");
// select user & password from dbase
$userQuery = pg_exec($db->db, "select oid, adminuser from user where
username = '$this->uname' and pass = '$cryptedpass'");
if (pg_NumRows($userQuery) != 1) {
$this->halt();
} else {
$user_oid = pg_Result($userQuery, 0, "oid");
$this->adminUsr = pg_Result($userQuery, 0, "adminuser");
// generate unique md5 crypted session token
$this->createSessionID();
// write session token 2 user table
$resultSessid = pg_Exec($db->db, "update user set sessid =
'$this->session_id' where oid = $user_oid");
// set session cookie
$this->setSessionCookie();
// authentication complete
// redirect 2 welcome page here
}
}
// check uname & password are not empty
function loginDataComplete(){
if ((!isset($uname)) || (!isset($pass))) {
$this->halt;
} else {
return;
}
}
// do login char validation
function validateLogin() {
if ( (!$isValidUname = $this->validateChars($this->uname)) ||
(!$isValidPass = $this->validateChars($this->pass)) ) {
//$this->halt();
} else {
return;
}
}
// validates login against permitted chars
function validateChars($what){
$isValid = (ereg("^([A-Za-z0-9_]*)$", $what)) ? true : false;
return $isValid;
}
// create unique md5 encrypted session token
function createSessionID() {
srand((double)microtime()*100);
$this->session_id = md5(uniqid(rand()));
return;
}
// set cookie with encrypted session token
function setSessionCookie(){
$issetCookie = setcookie($this->cookieName, $this->session_id,
time()+7200); /* expire in 1 hour */
if (!$issetCookie == 1) {

} else {

Re: [PHP] control structure question
So refering back, i re-wrote the original example using the switch syntax...
switch (true) {
case doStep1():
case doStep2():
case doStep3():
error();
break;
default:
valid();
}
Each case expressions is evaluated, until one of them evaluates to a value
equal (==) to the switch expression (in this case a boolean error flag).
The error() code will only be called if one of the doStep() evaluates to
false.
And the valid() code will only be evaluated if the switch reached the
default, which means that none of the above check returned false
I think for this example the switch syntax is more elegant than using a
series of if() statements.
Thanks,
Javier

[PHP] insert query fails w/ postgres database
Hello PHP people...
I'm trying to insert a filename (string) into a postgres database field but
the insert query is failing -
Warning: pg_exec() query failed: ERROR: oidin: error in
"abc_abcde012_010_mpeg1.mpeg": can't parse "abc_abcde012_010_mpeg1.mpeg"
in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/filename.php on line 835
Here's the query -
$addFileResult = pg_exec($db->db, "INSERT INTO

Table looks like this -

[PHP] setcookie IE6 problem
I'm setting a session cookie with the following code -
function setSessionCookie(){
$expires = time()+$this->session_expires;
$issetCookie = setcookie("$this->cookiename",
"$this->sess_id",
"$expires",
"/",
""
);
}
Occasionally setcookie seems to fail in IE6, or perhaps when I subsequently
retrieve the cookie as a part of the authentication code on each page IE6
fails to pick up the cookie - either way I get logged out.
Other browsers (NS4, IE5, IE5.5) seem okay.
Any Ideas?

Speaking of cookies, any general thoughts on the relative merits of using

both methods equal?

[PHP] Re: Cannot get data from form.
Turning off register globals and referencing variables through the new array
syntax certainly gives a greater degree of control over the origin of data;
ie: a variable referenced $_POST['foo'] has (most likely) been received as a
result of http post and it's reasonably safe to assume $_COOKIE['foo'] is a
value from a cookie etc. In this example with globals=on $foo could have
come from anywhere...
The only thing i've found a bit annoying is when a value can be passed
variously by a form (method=post) or as a query string value appended to a
link uri.
Writing...
if (isset($_GET['foo'])) {
$foo = $_GET['foo']
} elseif (isset($_POST['foo'])) {
$foo = $_POST['foo']
}
when I want to use $foo is a bit annoying, but i haven't figured out a more
elegant way of saying this yet.
Javier
>>
That's the way it works in the newer PHP for security reasons. I had to
rewrite all my
code about a week ago because my client was using php 4.2 and I had 4.0. It
has to do
with the Globals are set to being turned off in the php.ini file. You
should be able to
change the php.ini file to globals on, but people will argue that it's a
security problem
and you should just change all your global varieables to the new way. It's
your call.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
how do I send information to a php page from a menu list?
When a user selects an item from the list I would like to be able to =
send "selcategoryid" to faqbycat.php without the use of a submit button.
Is it done by using the onChange event? if so how may this be done?
The code I am using presently is below
Select a =

$faqcats";
}//while =
($myrowadmintitles=3DMySQL_fetch_array($admintilteresult))

=20
Thanks for your answer,

[PHP] sorting array question
i have the following code which reads a list of files from a directory -
$listcmd = "ls " .$dirPath;
$temp = exec($listcmd, $listoffiles, $status);
if($status == 0) {
for ($i =0; $i < sizeof($listoffiles); $i++) {
$this->fileName[$i] = $listoffiles[$i];
$this->sizeofFile[$i] = sprintf("%01.2f",
(filesize($dirPath."/".$listoffiles[$i])/1024)/1024);
$this->fileDate[$i] = date("d-M-y H:i",
filemtime($dirPath."/".$listoffiles[$i]));
}
$this->displayFiles();
What I want to do is display the files sorted by date.
Okay, so I've just realised that the really easy way to do this is by adding
-St (sort by time) to the ls command...
$listcmd = "ls -St " .$dirPath;
But how could this be achieved by sorting the three arrays? What if I
alternately wanted to sort the files by name, size or date without
re-reading the directory each time?
Would an associative array structure be better suited to this type of
operation?
Thanks for your insight,
Javier

[PHP] re: Refering to an object from within an array variable in another class
Hi, Syntax B doesnt seem to work exactly because as you say "it doesn't directly access the 'bars' variable..."; here... $reference_to_bar = $this->GetBar($id) ; it seems that a copy of the bar object is being created, which is a new object. This new bar object is not related to the bar object which is a part of the $bars array property of the foo object. When you set the marklar property to the new value ... $reference_to_bar->SetMarklar($value) ; the value is changed for the new copy of the bar object you have just created. Because this value is assigned to the new object it doesn't appear when you print the contents of foo. This is illustrated by the lines i've added below. Maybe after setting the new property value you could reassigned this object to the $bars array of object foo. I'm no expert but it's always fun to play with code... Hope this helps in some way, Javier /* But this syntax doesn't: and this would be prefered, as it doesn't directly access the 'bars' variable... */ $reference_to_bar = $this->GetBar($id) ; echo $reference_to_bar->marklar; $reference_to_bar->SetMarklar($value) ; echo $reference_to_bar->marklar; print_r($reference_to_bar); _ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] re: Refering to an object from within an array variable in another class
I believe the following discussion from Web Application Development with PHP
4.0 (available online at http://safari.oreilly.com) may shed some light on
your question...
>>
Whenever PHP encounters a statement for which write access to a variable is
needed, it evaluates and calculates the data that will be written into the
variable, copies it, and assigns the result to the target space in memory.
(This description is a little bit simplified, but you get the idea.)
$some_var = 2;
$my_var = $some_var * 3;
$new_var = $some_var + $my_var;
Looking at this script, PHP will
Create space for $some_var and write 2 into it.
Create space for $my_var, retrieve the value of $some_var, multiply it by 3,
and assign it to the newly allocated memory.
Create space for $new_var, retrieve the values of $some_var and $my_var,
total them, and write them back to the new place in memory.
Well, this sounds nice and logicalbut these are simple types and you've
worked with them many times already. Things are very different (and
illogical) when PHP is handling classes:
class my_class
{
var $var1, $var2, $var3;
}
$my_object = new my_class;
$my_object->var1 = 1;
$my_object->var2 = 2;
$my_object->var3 = 3;
$new_object = $my_object;
$new_object->var1 = 3;
$new_object->var2 = 2;
$new_object->var3 = 1;
print("My object goes $my_object->var1, $my_object->var2, $my_object->var3
!");
print("New object goes $new_object->var1, $new_object->var2,
$new_object->var3 !");
What do you think this will produce as output? The script first declares a
class, creates one instance of it, and assigns values to its three
properties. After having done this, it creates a new reference to this
object, reassigns its properties, and then just prints out each property by
using both references. Remember, one instance. Figure 2.7 shows the result.
Figure 2.7. PHP creating a copy instead of a reference.
If you're not surprised now, you either know PHP very well already or
haven't thought enough about objects yet. PHP has created a copy, a new
instance of my_class instead of just a new reference! This is not the
desired behavior, since the new operator is supposed to create an instance
of my_class in memory, returning a reference to it. Thus, when assigning
this reference to another variable, only the reference should be copied,
leaving the original data untouchedsimilar to a file system link, which
allows access to the same data through different locations on the file
system. This behavior of PHPcreating copies of referenced data rather than
just the reference itselfmay not sound important enough to focus on;
however, you'll see in a moment that it actually does make a difference.
Note: At the time of this writing, both PHP 3.0 and PHP 4.0 are using copy
syntax. A chat with someone closely involved in the core development
revealed that the plan is to change the default behavior to use a reference
syntax, but this change would cause a loss of backward compatibility. A
possible change is planned with version 4.1if this happens, information
contained here will be invalid for all future versions.

[PHP] left click downloads
I want to make it easier for people to download files from my website by having the download start when the visitor clicks a link (as opposed to right click / save target as). How can I achieve this with PHP? Do I include the file in a header() call ?

RE: [PHP] left click downloads
here is a simple function I have created to do single click downloads in php
-
function sendFile($filepath) {
$filename = basename($filepath);
$mimeType = mime_content_type($filepath)
header("Content-type: $mimeType");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename");
readfile($filepath);
}
In Unix can anyone post a method of obtaining mimeType using the file
command which could be compatible with this function?
I guess this is possible... my understanding is that mime_content_type() is
based on unix file commands method of pattern matching 'magic bytes' of
known file formats.
hope this is useful to some of you...

Hi Javier,
Nope, this is not a php thing at all. You could probably get it right
with Javascript or something similar.

[PHP] PHP download problem IE5 on mac
I'm using this code to various files for download via a http header -
$filename = basename($filepath);
header("Content-type: unknown/unknown");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename");
readfile($filepath);
works fine in most cases - the save dialogue appears. However -
IE on a MAC loads the file inline rather than throwing the save prompt.
Any ideas?
Javier

[PHP] Re: multiple file upload
Is it posible to do multiple file upload without selecting each file manual in multiple form fields? Yes. I have recently implemented an upload mechanism based on hotmails add attachment mechanism. haven't got time for a detailed explanation but here is the basic idea - on your html page - // a file selector field // add remove files buttons // files in the upload list field $FooObj->displayFileUploadList(); ?> file upload list is a database varchar field with each file id seperated with a pipe character - fileID1|fileID2 add / remove event handlers write / remove entries from this list. displayFileUploadList writes tags for each file in the list finally a doUpload function retrieves the file upload list and copies the files from the upload staging area to their final destination. Incidentally the same mechanism works for lots of other stuff like sending email to multiple recipients etc. Have Fun, javier _ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: multiple file upload
here's a couple of the more tricky code snippets which should make it easy
for folks to see how a multiple file upload select can work - the rest is
basically a lot of interaction with the database - storing / retrieving the
upload list.
Its a bit tricky but worth it though - the users responcible for uploads via
the system I built have been saying it makes their lives a lot easier.
If i get time i'll try and generalise the whole thing into an absract class
that folks can use...
// remove a file from upload target list
function removeFileFromUploadList() {
$this->getFileUploadList(); // get the upload list from the database
$selectedFileList = $_POST['selectedFileList']; // an array of selected
values from the multiple select box
// diff the arrays, store the new list
if ((sizeof($this->uploadFileList) >= 1) && ($selectedFileList != "")) {
$this->uploadFileList =
array_values(array_diff($this->uploadFileList,$selectedFileList)); //
subtract remove items
$this->storeFileUploadList();
}
}
// add pipe encoding to an array (file upload list) and return a string for
storage in db
function addPipeEncoding($array) {
for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($array); $i++) {
$addPipe = ((sizeof($array) == 1) || ($i == sizeof($array)-1)) ? "" : "|";
$returnValue .= $array[$i].$addPipe;
}
return $returnValue;
}
// remove pipe encoding from string
function removePipeEncoding($encodedString) {
$split = explode("|",$encodedString);
for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($split); $i++) {
if ($split[$i] != "") {
$returnArray[] = $split[$i];
}
}
return $returnArray;
}
