You need to use a program such as php-cgiwrap to "wrap" the script so it can be called using your user credentials. Then, you can chmod the file to 700 and it will be protected.

If you've got php loaded as an apache module in a shared hosting environment, then any file that apache can read, I can gain access to through a simple FTP account and a well-constructed php file using fopen(). Doesn't matter if that file resides within my vhosts dir or not. I may have to guess at the path a bit, but that's fairly trivial. The only way to protect a file in a shared hosting environment is to use something similar to php-cgiwrap which allows you to chmod the file to remove group/world read access. (If someone knows of another way to do this using the apache php module, please let me (and my ISP) know) Regarding shell access being a "security risk", ssh is far, far more secure than FTP can ever hope to be. This is straying off-topic, so we should probably take further discussions offline.

There isn't a way to solve it within the constraints you've mentioned (shared server at a hosting provider, apache, php-as-a-module) If apache has read access on a file, which it has to have in order to serve it, someone else can get to that file via a PHP/Perl/C/whatever script/program. Yes, you can use a server that has php safe_mode enabled, but that doesn't mean your scripts are safe -- it just means they're safe from being exploited by other php scripts. So, the only way to secure your PHP scripts from prying eyes (in a shared environment) is to upload them with group/world read permissions removed (i.e. chmod 700 or 600) But then Apache can't read that file either. That's where php-cgiwrap comes into play as it acts as an interface between apache and your chmodded 600 file. Basically, if you're on a shared server, you're either going to be buddies with your fellow users and trust them, or you're going to use something like php-cgiwrap which allows you to remove group/world read permissions and still let apache read the file. And, if security is *that* important to you, then you can, of course, use a dedicated server. Then you don't have to worry about other users. --kurt -- 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]

When you use a file-related command (fopen, mkdir, etc.) you're executing
that command under the same user-context that apache runs under. (usually
"nobody" on shared servers) So, you need to make sure that user "nobody" has
write permissions on the parent directory where you're trying to create your
directory.

[PHP] while() looping over query results twice?
I'm executing a query that returns some a UID and a company name. I'm using
the following code to loop over that query result set:
$result = mysql_query($myQuery) //$myQuery gets defined earlier
$resultCount = mysql_num_rows($result);
$companyID = array();
while($query_data = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
$companyID[$query_data[0]] = $query_data[1];
$companyID_string .= "," . $query_data[0];
$companyName_string .= "," . $query_data[1];
}
I've used $resultCount to verify the query is returning 4 rows. However, the
while loop above is looping over the results twice -- $companyID_string and
$companyName_string each have 8 values. Looking at the values shows that
it's the 4 rows duplicated.
What the heck am I doing wrong?

Re: [PHP] while() looping over query results twice?
OK, so I defined the variables before using them and that solved the problem.
(Thanks!)
I'm still curious as to why not defining them ahead of time would cause the
data within each string to get duplicated. In other words, if the query
results are "a,b,c,d", then by not defining the variable ahead of time
produces "a,b,c,d,a,b,c,d" which is weird.
At this point, my problem is solved, so this is more of an academic question
than anything.
Thanks for the help.

Is it possible to account/trap missing arguments in functions?
For instance, say I have a function foo:

If someone calls that function as:
foo($arg1);
Can I somehow code around the fact that $arg2 is missing? I've tried:
function foo($arg1,$arg2) {
if (!isset($arg2) { $arg2=0 }
}
But that doesn't work. However, that's the sort of functionality I'm looking

Re: [PHP] problem with a while loop
your while loop is working fine -- it's just that you're re-setting the value
of $email every time it loops through.
I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish, but you might try something
like:
$query = "SELECT * FROM members Where Company LIKE '%$search1%'";
$result=mysql_db_query($dbName,$query);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$email[$row['lname']] = $row["E_mail_1"]
} //untested code -- probably missing some quotes somewhere.
that will give you an array with lname as the key and e_mail_1 as your value.
You can then loop through it and format it however you want.

[PHP] PHP redirects (was Re: [PHP] Advanced. Trapped in architecture.)
AFAIK, ASP does output buffering by default (meaning it doesn't send the code to the browser until the page is fully parsed and ready to send to the client) That's what allows it to response.redirects after headers have been generated. Cold Fusion is the same way. However, once the actual HTTP headers have been sent to the client, I don't believe it's possible to do a server-side redirect -- only client-side. Someone please correct me if I"m wrong. So, PHP does have this feature if you have output buffering turned on. And not being able to do it without output buffering is more of a limitation of the HTTP protocol than it is a limitation of PHP. --kurt On Friday 26 October 2001 12:15, you wrote: > I know in ASP it's as easy as doing: > > Response.Clear > Response.Redirect > > But PHP doesn't seem to have that feature. -- 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]

You can't fopen() a file for read/write through FTP. You can do one, or the

You need to read the manual on the mysql functions.
Specifically, functions like mysql_fetch_array, mysql_fetch_row,
mysql_result. You're setting $imglocation to a string, not a returned result
from mysql. You need to use one of the three functions I mentioned to retun

Two things to try:
1. Run that exact query on a mysql command line, substituting whatever
variable name you're trying to pass in the URL. Often times, I find that I
tihnk I have a PHP problem when, in fact, I screwed up my query syntax
somewhere.
2. Explicitly define $getimg as something you know to be a valid image. If
that works, then you know it isn't getting passed from the url properly.

Actually, yes you can.
$myImgSize = getImageSize('/unix/path/to/my/file.jpg'); should return the
image sizes in an array. You should then be able to do something like:
Which should automatically include height/width parameters. (see this
function on the php site for more info -- also, that's untested, off-the-cuff
code I just wrote. Might not work perfectly. :)

Using LIKE means that MySQL has to do a lot more searching on all your database records. Instead of searching for an exact match, where it can look at things like string length, first characters and other simple criteria, it now has to evaluate the entire contents of the field in case there's a possible match somewhere in the string. Much, much slower.

Not that I doubt you, but I do suspect a problem other than PHP, such as a strange, non-printing character getting inserted in the email address somewhere (like at the end) or a newline character. It could also be a problem with the SMTP server that you're using. I highly recommend that you try this out on another, totally different PHP server (esp. one that runs on Apache/*nix, since that doesn't use SMTP to transport mail) That will help you isolate the exact area where the problem occurs.

So, to be blunt, you probably have a problem with your code, your SMTP server, the way you've configured PHP, or something other than mail(). It's easy to blame it on mail() and/or PHP, but I think you're barking up the wrong tree.

Is there a specific reason you want/have to use PHP for this particular project?

If you're looking for something that can look up data in a database and manipulate message headers based on the return data, then I'd say Perl is a better option since it will provide a better blend of powerful text processing with web and database enablement. Specifically, the Mail::Audit perl module available (for free) at CPAN.org. It's intended as a procmail replacement, but with easier syntax and is written in Perl, so you can easily modifiy it to hook into a database. (If you're just playing around with PHP, trying to see what you can do with it, then by all means, give it a whirl and let us all know how it turns out.

A few options:
1. Don't use absolute paths -- use relative paths. Then you don't have to
worry about it as long as the overall structure of your site stays the same.
2. set a variable or named constant to the value of your path and then use
that throughout your site. For example:
DEFINE("MY_PATH","/www/my_newdir");
include(MY_PATH);
This works well when you have one file that contains all your named constants
and other stuff that needs to be accessible on a global basis. You then
include that one file (using relative paths) at the top of every php page.
If you need to change a value, you change it once in your global file and be
done with it.
3. It's fairly trivial to do an automated search and replace across multiple
files. Just do this and let the computer replace all occurances of
include("/www/my_olddir") to include("/www/my_newdir")

Short answer; you can't. Long answer; if users have shell accounts, there is no way you can do what you're trying to do. If you limit users to FTP access and PHP *only* (i.e. no telnet, ssh, custom CGI, Perl or other languages that can access the file system) then you can use PHP safe mode to at least protect PHP.

[PHP] session question: session.auto_start vs. session_register.
I am working on an open source e-commerce package and have hit a wall with sessions. If I have session.auto_start turned on, I get the following error message: Fatal error: The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition shoppingcart of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ the session was started in on line 12 If I turn session.auto_start off, the error disappears. So, the error message tells me that I can't use the class unless I've defined it before the session gets started. However, session.auto_start (as far as I know) starts a session immediately, before even waiting for a script to be fully parsed & executed. So, the two seem mutually exclusive. (but then the usefullness of session.auto_start would seem extremely limited) Is there a way I think there's some glaring errors in my understanding here.

The major drawback is speed: the CGI version will be much, much slower. Not a big deal if you have a low volume site, though.

You said you wanted to create some nicely formatted forms -- what's wrong with HTML and style sheets?

Re: [PHP] deleting file contents
On Tuesday 11 December 2001 09:00 am, DigitalKoala wrote: > What i want to do is then delete the contents of the file, but not the file > itself...can you tell me the best way to do this? Well, you can read the contents of the original file into a PHP variable using fopen(). Then, use something like ereg_replace to find what you're looking for and delete it (replace it with nothing) and the fwrite the file back out. You'll also want to make sure you use flock() to lock the file prior to opening it. Otherwise, you'll run into problems if your MTA tries to deliver another message at the same time. Make sure you understand about unix file locking before you try this on a production mailbox -- you have to use the same method of file locking as your MTA uses. Otherwise, Bad Things can happen. :) Honestly, I'd say you'd be better off using something like procmail or even perl for this. Procmail is designed to muck around with mail spool files and Perl is better suited for unix file handling and manipulation, IMO. That said, I'm sure it can be done in PHP, so best of luck if you decide to go ahead with it. hth --kurt -- 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]

Re: [PHP] Quering given dns and list A records with PHP
By design, most DNS servers won't let you do this because it's something of a security risk. However, for DNS servers that *will* let you do it, there isn't a built-in function in PHP that will do what you want, but I imagine you can accomplish it by interacting with a unix shell and using the nslookup command. I don't know the code to do this, but am sure there are tons of examples around. Once you get access to the shell, the commands you want are as follows: shellprompt> nslookup shellprompt> ls -t any domainname.com where domainname.com is the domain you're looking for. Again, note that 9 times out of 10, you're going to get a "Query Refused" result since most DNS servers won't give you this information. You can get an idea of your success rate by simply trying the above commands in your own *nix shell for various domain names. Most/all of the big guys (yahoo, sun, etc.) are blocked. hth --kurt - Original Message - From: "Mohamedou" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2001 3:41 AM Subject: [PHP] Quering given dns and list A records with PHP Hello all, Can somebody help me I need to query a given DNS Server identified by IP and the domain I want query and then it gives me the whole machines it has registered Regards Moh -- 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]
Re: [PHP] #exec and php together
First question is why not just use PHP for both parts? i.e. I'd guess the reason your second example doesn't work is because PHP isn't being called to parse the page. even though you're calling a php page with your SSI, the destination page is named *.htm meaning that PHP won't be involved. So, I'd say you're going to need to rename the file to *.php in order to get it to work.

I'm working on a form that reads where the user clicks on an image using:

I get this as output:
Location is x = 94 and y =Ê36
What is that strange "e" thing?
QUESTION 2
I want to check how large the image is, so I tried this:
$test = GetImageSize ("$maploc");
echo $test[3];
(it's a jpg, and $maploc is any URL)
But I get this error:

I've also been unable to get any other image funtions to work (various

Actually, that's not entirely accurate.

Re: [PHP] Re: changing to a different file in browser
is the header() code at the very top of your page before any other HTML
code? By default, you have to put all HTTP header-related information at
the top of your pages. There's a setting in php.ini that allows you to
bypass this, but I don't remember it off the top of my head.

Re: [PHP] hey, got a question....
sounds like a firewall issue to me -- do you have a firewall in between your computer and your 'net connection? Might run a port scan on your default gateway (which is likely your firewall if you have one) to see what ports it's allowing inbound. Alternatively, you could have a router that has some ports closed down. Again, a port scan will show this.

Re: [PHP] chdir() help
In that case, it would be better to read all the image names into an array
and then use that to spit out 20 images at a time. You'll get better
performance that way, too.

Chris,
I do that because i wanna have control of how many images will be displayed
at once. I understand what you are doing, but, you script will just display
all images at once, right? I wanna display like 20 images, then have a next

[PHP] stripping white space?
Is there a way using PHP to easily strip white space out of an html page as it's being sent to the client. That is to say, the page that we as developers work on is nicely formatted, indented, etc. but when it's sent out to the client, PHP will remove all the extra white space both to obfuscate the code and reduce the size a bit. For anyone who knows Cold Fusion, I'm looking for the PHP equivalent of the "Suppress whitespace by default" option in the Cold Fusion Server Administrator. (NOTE: I'm not looking for a discussion on the merits of stripping vs. not stripping white space characters or whether or not it really does any good -- I just want to know if it can be done easily using PHP) Thanks. --kurt -- 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]
Re: [PHP] stripping white space?
nope -- I want to completely suppress any extraneous white space characters
(tabs, spaces, etc.) in the HTML as it's being delivered to the client. So,
where your source file might look like:
Hello World!
The client will receive the HTML as:
Hello World!
all on one big long line. But your source file maintains the original
formatting for easy readability.
I'm guessing the answer is no, PHP can't (easily) do this but I just thought
I'd check.

Re: [PHP] If (!$results) are true what am I missing
um...I believe your query will return results if there is a match, but your
error message will only display if there is no match. !$result will only be
true if there are no records returned on your query, meaning that the domain
name doesn't exist. From your error message, I'd say that's not what you're
looking for.

Re: [PHP] stripping white space?
Well, you can simply look for a closing bracket (>) followed by only white
space characters (space, tab, return) followed by an open bracket (<) and,
if there's a match, strip out the white space in between them. That would
turn:
into just
You'd have to check for a bit more, such as and tags, but it's
not an unreasonable regex to write. What I am more concerned about is; I'm
assuming everything would have to be encased within tags, meaning
all HTML would have to be properly escaped, etc. *that* would be a major
pain, so I hope I'm overlooking something.

[PHP] converting multiple URL values for the same variable into an array
I'm modifying some code for ampache (ampache.kveton.com) and have run into a
snag that I'm not sure I understand completely.
Part of the code produces a URL similar to the following:
http://myhost/playlist.pls?song=100&song=101&song=102
and $song then gets passed to this function:
function get_song_path_from_id ( $song ) {
GLOBAL $dbh, $db_name;
$songs = '';
$count = 0;
if ( is_array( $song ) ) {
while ( list($k,$v) = each($song) ) {
//does some cool stuff
}
}
else {
//does some other stuff
}
return ($songs);
}
So, am I correct in assuming that $song will never be considered an array?
(basically, given the above code and URL, $song will always equal 102)
I'm new to PHP, and since I didn't write the original code, I'm not sure if
this is a bug, or something that I just don't fully understand. Assuming it
is a bug, can anyone offer some suggestions on how to take the URL and parse
it out and input the values into an array called $song?
(get_song_path_from_id() is used by several other parts of the code, so any
modifications to that code would need to leave the rest of the functionality
intact)
Thanks.

P.S. If anyone is looking for a simple, easy-to-use (and set up) mp3

to manage playlists and play your mp3 songs from anywhere.

while ( list($k,$v) = each($song) ) {
//does some cool stuff
}
}
else {
//does some other stuff
}
return ($songs);
}
So, am I correct in assuming that $song will never be considered an
array? (basically, given the above code and URL, $song will always equal
102)
I'm new to PHP, and since I didn't write the original code, I'm not sure
if this is a bug, or something that I just don't fully understand.
Assuming it is a bug, can anyone offer some suggestions on how to take
the URL and parse it out and input the values into an array called
$song?
(get_song_path_from_id() is used by several other parts of the code, so
any modifications to that code would need to leave the rest of the
functionality
intact)
Thanks.

P.S. If anyone is looking for a simple, easy-to-use (and set up) mp3
manager, I highly recommend ampache. It doesn't have a bunch of bells &
whistles (which I don't want) -- it simply provides a simple, effective
way to manage playlists and play your mp3 songs from anywhere.
