[PHP] How PHP recover value from another frame?

[M]

Hello, I know probably this question already solved, but I couldnt find
msgs about.

I have page with two frames.

frameA is built by frameA.php and frameB is built by frameB.php scripts.

Into frameA is form variable named 'varA',  frameA.formA.varA.value =
'ok' . I know PHP knows this variable as '$varA' when frameA.php
executed.

The problem is I need execute frameB.php and recover frameA varA value
to decide some actions, BUT at PHP time, not at document time (since at
document time I can recover via javascript).

Is this possible?

Thanks

[PHP] How retrieve database data from email?

[M]

Hello People:

I have my pages built in PHP / Mysql, all working ok, but now I need
solve a problem I don't know how to solve or even how search about. Case
this problem was already discussed in this list, I would be grateful if
someone pass to me correct date so I can search about.

My problem is very simple: I have customers who dont want enter into
html pages to retrieve some info (suppose info are stock values), but
rather they want to send email with formatted query into mail subject
(or at least in body) , and then receive response again by email.

For instance, customer could send this for [EMAIL PROTECTED]

to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
subject: name=ibm, year=2001
body: (empty)

In response, he should receive an email with all IBM stock prices day by
day.

That't all, I hope this will have solution, but I can't figure how email
could communicate automatically with PHP/Mysql.

Thanks

Miguel

[PHP] How to program very basic chat on PHP?

[M]

Hello, this question is about dynamic communication between browsers.

I have a site to meet people (PHP/Mysql).These people have their
profiles and pictures stored into the site.
I would like to make some kind of chat (very single chat), so when
people log into system, I can trace their nicknames and list all active
users onto some table.

When someone wants talk to any other listed person, he just click on
nick name, and some window will open on the other people browser's. This
way, a single chat between two users could be stablished easily.

Is this possible to program just using PHP?. I cant figure here how to
control remotely the other user's browse (open chat window for instance)
using only PHP.

Thanks for any help

Hello Phil, your idea is interesting. I am evaluating it because it is not a
true 'chat' (if user doesnt load any page he will never see incoming msg), but
your idea is the only thing I have to this time.

Hello Timo, thanks very much. I don't know flash, but do you think Flash
5 has this option also?. I read a basic Flash manual and didn't find
some feature for 'sockets' or something else.
For Java, I know a very basic programming of it, I will try study more
of it to understand socket functions.

Thanks all of you for your responses.

Hello Gerhard, I had an idea, and would like  you say to me if it is possible or
not. I program little javascript, and I think there is a timer function into JS.

My question is: what if some timer start every nn seconds a function to read
stored msgs table?

My doubt is: how to start a function in JS to read a table?. Remember PHP and
Mysql are server-sided operations, while JS is cliente side op.

Maybe your idea is JS start a new window embedded into iframe, and this window
then would exec a PHP script to check msgs table.

Is this true?

Thanks

Hello Justin

Ok, you are right, I know it is possible to get complete chat services at free (just
install it in your page).

I think I forgot mention something. The reason I don't want use these services is
because I want people be able to retrieve info of my database when chatting.

Since I have profiles and pictures of people stored in databases, I want people
instantly getting these info through chat services.

For instance, when presenting list of chatters, just with a click you can see
picture and profile of that person.

This connection is impossible to stablish when using predefined chats, thats the
reason I want to make my own chat.

Thanks

[PHP] Why MySql doesn't free space when erasing BLOB fields?

Hello, sorry this mysql question here, but I cant't answer this one.

I have database with BLOB fields to hold pictures (60-90 kb each).
Actually I am erasing these BLOB fields (move '' into and update rcord)
to free some space from my DB, but space is not released by mysql. I
verified BLOB fields really were erased.

How can I tell mysql recover these space?

[PHP] About thumbnail functions

[M]

From:  "Torkil Johnsen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 Subject:   How do I check GD version?
To:   <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Cheers all...

This mail got rather long, so here are my 3 questions in a short
version:
1) What is GD? (fore use with imagecopyresampled function)
2) How can I run a function that will tell me what version of GD is
installed on my server, if any version at all?
3) Anyone know of some good hosts out there which has got all of this
under
control? (basically people who has a clue about what they're doing)



Hello Torkil

I face same problem. I tried to make a thumbnail function by analyzing
directly string of image, but this is not single task, specially for JPG
images. I also buy my site and pay monthly, but I prefer no to trust on
GD and other features because these people who sell sites often change
PHP features and disables/enables apache / mysql / php parameters
crashing entirely my sites. Then to convince them that they should
restart disabled features pass some weeks. My customers don't want to
know about these problems.

I still dream some clever people (and charitative one!) already
developed a function like $mythumb =
thumbnail($image,new-size,new-size)  then $mythumb will carry binary
string for image (no file names of course because my images are stored
into blob fields), and I hope someday to discover these function.

I often search for some C++ routine, so it could be translated to PHP,
but also none found.

It appears this dream is over. I will continue to work in this problem
as longer as I can.

Thanks

Hello John, thanks for your reply.

suppose this form into myurl.html (i will replace < and >  by [ and ] to avoid
unwanted url treatment into msgs)

[form]
[input type=text name=driver length=20]
[input type=text name=os length=20]
[/form]

I figured could open myurl.html already with filled values by calling

http://.../myurl.html?driver=midi&os=windows

but it appears not working. I regularly program PHP and pass url parameters in
this way to my php scripts successully.

My problem is as follow: there are many forms around web I will need fill
regularly with values at every week (or months). My idea is to create a
database with these web urls, containing all info needed to fill automatically
these forms. Probably will need to store info about these pages uses get or
post commands, I really don't know how to begin with.

At every week, I would call my PHP script and browse all these urls and
automatically fill values to call pages with values already filled. I even
don't know how my 'robot' could send button action commands to these forms.

Ok, thats all.

Thanks for any info on this subject.

Hello Jason

Well, maybe I got little confusion by naming 'myurl.html' rather than
'yoursurl.html', because web pages I want to fill automatically are web pages
built by another people I have no contact with. For instance (it is not true,
but it worth like example), I want to fill automatically some creditcard page
with name, account , address and so. I want to program my script to fill exactly
that page, because I know that URL, I can peruse through that html source and
learn what name values are into form and I know exactly how that url treat those
names (get, post etc). The only problem is: I am obligued to call that url and
write manually all data.

Suppose I need to fill that web page thounsand times (to all my employers), then
I want to make some kind of script to call url passing parameters, in a way when
that page appears to me, it already has all fields filled with correct values (I
only would need to press the 'send' button). If possible, I would like to press
'send' button also automatically.

I know there are programs that perform this task, because I noticed some search
engines (ie altavista) ask you type some blurr code appearing as image, just to
avoid these robots fill automatically fields. Since robots can't read (for a
while) that blurr images, it is necessary a human to type that info.

[PHP] Running WML (WAP services) under PHP

[M]

Hello, I am trying to develop some WML apps using PHP.
To run WML apps into my local Apache (win98) server, I added

AddType application/x-httpd-php .wml

into httpd.conf. This works ok when calling directly from netscape
http://localhost/mywml.wml ,
treating script like a true PHP program.

BUT when writing a REAL WML app. (cards and so) and trying to run on
NOKIA simulator (by calling URL), it shows a parse error on line 1 (for
all scripts).
The same script, when executed in file mode on NOKIA sim (that is first
load .wml file and then press SHOW button) , works fine, proving the
error is not in script, but in way PHP interpret .WML pages.

I suspect PHP introduces some invisible code (just 1 byte?) or something
at beginning of .WML page.


Thanks for your attn.

[PHP] Uploading files with on webhostings

[M]

Hello, first of all, thanks very much for your answer about WAP and WML
php headers. I corrected headers and page works ok now.

==

Now a question about uploading files (.gif .jpg) using  to be stored into Mysql blob fields.

I hope somebody here having sites on www.blueboxinternet.com hosting
company, because I have big trouble there I can't solve, and support
says I first shoud read faq because they have lot of customers with no
problems.

I make industrial and commercial catalogs, so my customers should be
able to send (upload) pictures of products and goodies directly from
their HD to site, these pictures stored in Mysql tables and shown when
customer pages are called by someone.
The only way I know to perform this is



Enter filename 






This script will store picture-file into some tmp directory on bluebox
servers and will return tmp file name into $myfile var when script
called again by 'form action' command. Then I can treat file and store
in DB.

This script worked fine on bluebox servers  until NOVEMBER 1st ,
when they made some important changes on their servers. When this change
happened, my script began to receive this error:

Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory
in
/home/httpd/vhosts/meucatalogo.com/web_users/gratis/rest_prox.php on
line 25

Bluebox support says I am recording my files on tmp directory with owner
'someowner' and trying to read file with 'anotherowner' owner.
I argue I have no control about owners and file modes into their servers
(specially into their tmp directories), and that PHP performs this task
in a transparent way for me. Thats to say, I have no tools to bypass
this problem.
Then they answer I shoud read faq.

Case some of you have site using this (otherwise excellent web hosting)
company, I would greatly appreciate what solution for upload files thru
HTML forms there exists.

Thanks very much

Thanks Jim. Yes, I know about these variables. I am using there (specially
$userfile) to fopen. Problem is with file permission on server side. I don't
know how to bypass this problem unless I could say to HTTP where to store temp
files instead storing in tmp default dir. Support people insists I am trying
to read files with different owner, but I am just client.

[PHP] passing variables from - to frames

I want pass variable values between frames, these definded via input
hidden tags into form definition.
I have first frame name=framea containing form name=forma
then second frame name=frameb form name=formb
I have forma input type=hidden name=vara value=valuea and want to pass
this value to formb type=hidden name=varb

I wrote little javascript into framea something like
frameb.formb.varb.value = framea.forma.vara.value  but only got
'javascript error'. Java doesnt reckognizes frameb.formb.varb names at
all. I tried also by creating  into frameb header
but this also didnt work.
Is there some other solution?

Hi Jason!

Your solution is very interesting, but I think it is necessary GD library to built 
dynamic thumbnails. My PHP provider has no GD library installed, so I am searching for 
some other miraculous solution. Here another idea: it is possible to store thubnails 
into JPG header files, this is allowed by JPG specifications, but I don't
know PHP functions to retrieve thubnails from into JPG streams. The  html code won't prevent downloading all bytes from image. I 
think I am lost.

Any idea?

[PHP] About old msg on attachements using PHP mail function

[M]

Hello, regarding old email from [EMAIL PROTECTED] about mail
attachements

From: py" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>  21/05/01 08:25
Subject: Re: [PHP] sending attachements with mail
To: "Tolga \"thorr\" Orhon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
CC: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Here is a nice class that handles e-mail attachment.
Works fine for me.



function write_mimeheaders($filename, $mime_filename) {
 if ($mime_filename) $filename = $mime_filename;
 $out = "MIME-version: 1.0\n";
 $out = $out . "Content-type: multipart/mixed; ";
 $out = $out . "boundary=\"$this->mime_boundary\"\n";
 $out = $out . "Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT\n";
 $out = $out . "X-attachments: $filename;\n\n";
 return $out;
}

function write_smtpheaders($addr_from) {
 $out = "From: $addr_from\n";
 $out = $out . "Reply-To: $addr_from\n";
 $out = $out . "X-Mailer: PHP3\n";
 $out = $out . "X-Sender: $addr_from\n";
 return $out;
}

...

I am trying to attach single text file to mail, then don't want to
implement new class for this task.
I imagine to send MIME messages, it would be enough build appropriate
headers, in same way PY wrote these functions above, then send these
headers into PHP mail function.

PHP mail function has parameters ($TO,$SUBJECT,$BODY,$HEADERS) , then I
built MIME headers into $HEADERS parameter. Message arrives ok to me,
headers are right placed into message headers, but no attachements
appears for me (and no body also!)
My doubt is: when sending MIME parts, should $BODY be empty (and actual
body sent like MIME part), or rather should I mount all my headers into
$BODY and let $HEADERS empty?

What I made is:

$mime = 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\n';
$mime = $mime . 'MIME-version: 1.0\n';
$mime = $mime . 'Content-type: multipart/mixed\n';
$mime = $mime . 'Boundary="1234567890"\n';
$mime = $mime . '--1234567890';
$mime = $mime . 'Content-type: text/plain; name="myfile.txt";';
$mime = $mime . 'this is my text file to be attached, blha blha
blha...';

mail([EMAIL PROTECTED],"mysubject","mybody",$mime)

mail arrives ok, but no body and no attachement into.

Thanks in advance.

[PHP] Javascript document variable names for complex forms

[M]

Hello people.

First , let me thanks all of you who answered  my mime-mail question
(special Richard Lynch).

Next question (probably not for proper list, but I couldn't get answer,
so please sorry me).

I have http frame page (classical 'top', 'left' and 'center' frames),
then 'center' frame opens new window. From this new windows, I need
access some 'top' document variable names-values. I tried all possible
combinations, but couldn solve this.

Examples:

(from into new-window, child of 'center' frame)

var myvar = parent.top.document.form.var.value
var myvar = top.document.form.var.value
var myvar = parent.parent.top.document.form.var.value

Thanks in advance

Miguel

Re: [PHP] Issue when inserting Slovak characters in database via PHP code

[M]

The important steps:

1. display the form on utf-8 page:
header('Content-Type: text/html; codepage=utf-8');
... and the same in  tag
2. use pg_set_client_encoding('UTF8') after connecting to posgres
3. have your database, tables and rows in UTF8 (you have already)
4. again, when retrieving, pg_set_client_encoding('UTF8')
5. display the form on utf-8 page

perhaps the characters are stored as UTF-8, but you view them over ASCII

these are html entities, they are different, they use only 7 bits. I
would not recomend on using them, you will use many capabilities.

The message is being sent, but the UTF-8 specific characters are not being

The messages etc are coming from a form. Is it possible to set the charset

Content-Transfer-Encoding is 7-bit, but utf-8 is 8-bit. So you need to 
encode it (see notes in http://sk.php.net/quoted_printable_decode), or 
leave the Content-Transfer-Encoding header.

Hello, I decided to make a pre-URL caller into my script, so when user
try link to another URL, instead show these annoying http errors (when
URL off), I could direct him to more user friendly environment.

I checked FOPEN($url-name,'R') command, but in some cases it will pop up
fire-walls alerts for users who uses firewalls, when FOPEN is executed.

I would like to try more silent tricks for this task, and appreciate any

[PHP] PHP ImageCreateFrom.. malfunctioning in last PHP releases...

[M]

Hello people,

I use ImageCreateFromString PHP functions to resize (thumbnails and so)
dynamically my JPG images.

I use third party WEB hosting provider , so I have no control about new
releases and updates of server softwares.

I have not changed my images in last 3 years (they are used for virtual
stores), they appeared beautiful in these 3 years, but from some days
ago, they are appearing with terrible filter colors (all blue for
instance, some entirely black and so). When bypassing image PHP
functions, images again appear beautiful in my page, but site
performance to show product catalogs gets terrible, not to say
impossible for customers browse on it.

I wrote web provider to check what changed in their PHP environment, but
I am afraid they will answer none has changed.

I use the following sequence of commands to rebuild thumb images:

$orimage = ImageCreateFromString(string) to get original image
from opened JPG file
$thumb =  ImageCreate(new-width, new-height) to create empty new
thumbnail
ImageCopyResized($thumb,$origame,)  to fill thumbnail
ImageJpeg($thumb)  to show thumbnail

I checked by increasing 'quality' parameter  ImageJpeg($thumb,'',100)
but result continue to be wrong.

Is anobody else experiencing these problems lately?, how did you solve
it?

Thanks very much

(I would appreciate cc to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if possible)

Or if you do not want it to be completely automatic, export the .xls file in
.csv (comma separated values) and then do the usual file read, line by line.
For each line you get use the explode() function with the delimiter you have
set and then finally you will get an array of all values per line. Loop
through this till the end of the file.


There's fgetcsv()

I tested to use @fopen instead of fopen and it took 1 second longer...



I meant using:

if(($x = @fopen('http://www.stammis.com/getstart.php')) !== false) {

instead of:

You can execute totem-video-thumbnailer. It captures the middle frame, I

Ben Ramsey wrote:
B is a secure page, with a CC info form that when submitted will 
process their card, charging the amount of money passed in the 
encrypted packet, and if the charge succeeds, redirecting back to A. A 
would probably need to send an order number to B, and B could pass 
that back to A upon success or failure.


All of this is to get around the Apache limitation of allowing only 
one virtual host to use SSL.


apache does not have this limit. this is limit of https protocol, 
because encryption takes place before any request is made, so the only 
way to know what SSL certificate to use is the IP address. You can get 
apache to listen on more than one IP and use as many certificates as you 
like.




Anyhow, B could keep track of all of the order numbers it was sent by 
A, and if it was re-sent a duplicate could simply deny the whole 
transaction. Thus, if someone sniffed my encrypted "data burrito", and 
attempted to re-use it to gain access to B, they would fail, since B 
will only allow that burrito ONCE. Perhaps these order numbers could 
be GUID's.


You can look at how payment gateways do this. There are basicly 2 ways:

1. postback - when user is redirected from B to A with the result status 
and order id, A asks B (rpc, simple get method, anything...) if the 
result is really what it got from the user. Check every important 
information - order id, amount


2. signing - site B computes a sign from important information of the 
transaction (at least order id and amount) and a secret key, and adds 
this sign to the redirect url that leads to site A. Site A can then 
compute the sign from the same values and check it against sign received 
from the server.


In both cases you should also incorporate site id, so site A is not the 
only one that can use the interface of site B.

And columns should be able to hold NULL values only if they can be

$clean['pass'] = md5((ini_get('magic_quotes_gpc') ? 
stripslashes($_POST['pass']) : $_POST['pass']));


or users with quotes in their password won't be able to log in.


$clean['pass'] = md5($_POST['pass']);

Of course, it is best to use a salt:

Re: [PHP] Regex to wrap tag around a tag

[M]

The second parameter to preg_replace is the replacement string (with 
optional backreferences), not another patern.


Use '/(.*)(?=<\/p>)/' for patern, 'href="edit_paragraph&text=$1">$1' for replacement string, however, 
this does not urlencode the text parameter. You can use 
preg_replace_callback instead of preg_replace to encode it in the 
callback function.


This won't work for long paragraphs because the lenght of GET request is 
limited. Change it to use forms instead.

I'm having a strange problem when trying to show a array after its value 
was defined on a file that was included. Something like this:




On the file lang/pt_BR/login.php i have this...



But the result of the first script is 'S' (without quotes).

If i change lang/pt_BR/login.php to



I get 'Usuário' (without quotes again).

Why does this happens?

Thanks,

Fernando.

Re: [PHP] Error with array and include

[Fernando M. M.]

T.Lensselink,

Ok, problem solved. I didn't realized that i was using the same variable.

Thanks for the help!

T.Lensselink escreveu:

How can you use an array as string in the include statement and two lines lower 
as array?
Think it echo's 'S' because it see's $lang as a string and not an array.

[PHP] date() and timezone

[Fernando M. M.]

Hello,

I have a lot of php scripts that uses date() for some important
operations. Yesterday those scripts were moved to another server which is on an
different timezone. I haven't predicted this so my scripts aren't working 
anymore. The
servers timezone is GMT -4 and mine is GMT -2. Is there a way to change the 
default
timezone for all scripts within a folder? And what about changing just one?

I
appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Fernando.

Because i can't set

are about 10,000 scripts.

How do i make curl receive

How do i make curl send it?

Hi, i am trying to create a member login/authentication script to

I am following a tutorial:

Re: [PHP] Can anyone help? PHP script/MySQL problem

Hi Rich

The prob is that the data isn't stored into the database as it should be and
the user doesn't get an email back with their data.  It seems to get lost
before reaching the database, meaning the rest of it wont work, and i don't
know why.

Thanks

Rich,

I'm not getting any error messages.  I have just checked my database and the
only data other than that i manually entered is an auto-increment number and
a random password, which i assume were produced when you filed in the form.
There is no first name, last name, email etc which there should have been if
you filled in the form.

If it was working fine you would recieve an email automatically at the
address you specified.

If you have any ideas what's wrong i'd love to hear them.

[PHP] Resizing a png tranparent image.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I am trying to resize a png file, my autograph ;-)


Good result thanks to gimp:
http://boxfly.free.fr/test/test1.jpg
Bad result with php:
http://boxfly.free.fr/test/test2.jpg

This is my PHP code to resize the autograph:

$newAuto = imagecreatetruecolor( $widthImgAu, $heightImgAu) ;
imagecolortransparent($newAuto,imagecolorat($newAuto,0,0)) ;
$imgAuto = ImageCreateFromPNG($img_auto);
imagecopyresized($newAuto, $imgAuto, 0, 0, 0, 0, $widthImgAu, 
$heightImgAu, $imageInfoAu[0], $imageInfoAu[1]) ;
ImagePNG($newAuto,"new_auto.png");

So I tried:
imagecopyresampled($newAuto, $imgAuto, 0, 0, 0, 0, $widthImgAu, 
$heightImgAu, $imageInfoAu[0], $imageInfoAu[1]) ;
Instead of imagecopyresized...

To copy the autograph inside the photo I do:
$newImg = ImageCreateFromJPEG($img_des);
ImageAlphaBlending($newImg, true);
ImageCopy($newImg, $newAuto, $posX, $posY, 0, 0, $widthImgAu, $heightImgAu);

But with no sucess

If I do not resize the png autograph and copy it directly inside the 
photo, that's perfect, as a result the problem is the resizing...

What do I have to do to resize a png image without loosing transparency ?

Thanks.

[PHP] PHP/MySQL help?

[Steven M]

What am i doing wrong with the script below? What i am trying to do is check
whether the "newtest" field has a 0 or a  1 value then redirect the user to
a different page based on the answer.

I am then trying to add 2 to the value in the "points" field of my database
and then  to set the "newtest" field value to 1 so the user is directed to
the second of the two pages if they click the link again

My database is MySQL and the connection details are correct and stored in an
external script.  I have missed out the PHP tags on the code below in case
that interferes with how it appears on the list.  I really would appreciate
any help with this as i am a newbie to MySQL and PHP and am finding it a
really steep learning curve.  Thanks.

Here you are closing your conenction to the MySQL-Server:
> mysql_close();

> if($number==0)

But here you need it again:
> {mysql_query("UPDATE users SET points = '$+2' WHERE 14 = '$0'");

So remove the mysql_close() if it don't work: Post the error message!

I thought i read somewhere that you could refer to the field by number.  Was
i wrong? It doesn't seem to make a difference anyway.  It still doesn't
work.  Here's the code with words instead of numbers.  I'd be grateful if
you could let me know if there are any obvious errors.

Hi there

yes , the shebang ( the  #!/usr/local/bin/php ) is not needed for use 
with dynamic webpages wether they be perl , php or whatever

Shebangs are used only with shell based scripts. Your webserver should 
be configured to know what to do with the file by extension, e.g. .php 
files should be processed by php in apache

This link describes how to configure a webserver to do this

[PHP] Sessions and phplib.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I am using the phplib just for the sessions management and unfortunately 
this projects seems dead (no?), no official realise using the php4 
session support.
What's more, i am looking for a sessions library which could check the 
IP adress of users not only the cookie. In case of bad hats steal cookies...
What I use in my current code is:
page_open(array("sess" => "SIOVA_Session", "auth" => 
"SIOVA_Challenge_Auth", "perm" => "SIOVA_Perm"));
$perm->check("user");
page_close() ;
$auth->auth["perm"] == "admin" ;// and others privilege checks...
$sess->delete() ;
$auth->unauth();
$auth->logout();
etc...

What do you think I should use instead of the phplib, do you think I 
should change what I use at this time which works full well :-/
I do want to use a library checking the cookies AND the IP adresses...to 
do something more secure.


Thanks for you advises,
Vincent.

Hi,

I have created a form that passes details to the next page so the user can
see the details they have submitted before clicking confirm to submit to the
database.  The problem is that the details dont seem to get passed to the
script after they have appeared on the confirmation page.  I know the script
works because i submitted info to is successfully before i changed the form
action to point at the confirmation page.

I think it has something to do with PHP sessions but am not sure how to make
it work.  Thanks for any help.

Hello,

I didn't find in the doc how to:
 - Know the full path of the current directory. Like /var/www/to/the/path


try using dirname(__FILE__) or dirname($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'])

dirname($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'])is good for me.

How can I know all these variables, for example, now I need to know the 
upload_max_filesize ! And later, for sure, I will have to know another 
config option of the server...wich can be access by such variable.
How to know all these variable ?

Thanks.

"Voir l'image suivante" -> "See the next image"
"Voir l'image précédante" -> "See the forward image"
"Chargement de l'image en cours...Veuillez patienter" -> "Loading image 
in progress...Please wait"

Have you ever seen such a good gallere browser ?
And look at my future concurent:

Of course, you can create dynamicaly javascript via php, ie:
  echo "

  var yourvar = $onephpvar ;
" ;
Is that what you were asking for ?

[PHP] define variables.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I do a lot of define like that:
define ("_LANG1", "Server options");
define ("_LANG1", "Manage your system");
etc...
And stuff like that:
  if($num == 1) {
$mgs = _LANG1 ;
  }else if($num == 2) {
$mgs = _LANG2 ;
  }
etc...
But I do want to avoid all these if and else, is there a way to do 
something like that:
$mgs = _LANG.$num ;
?

Thanks.

Strange it does not work if I do:
  $num = "_LANG".$num ;
  $msg = constant($num) ;
  echo $mgs ; //It does not display anything!
But If I do it directly, it works:
  $num = "_LANG".$num ;
  echo constant($num) ; //It display the constant variable.
Anyway it works  :-)

[PHP] cookie problem.

[H M]

hello.
i'm new to this NG, so i don't know if this is the right mailinglist / 
newsgroup for my problem. if not, please let me know which one to post 
it to. anyway, here goes:

i'm designing a new website with several php scripts. for that purpose 
i've configuerd my server (apache under MacOSX 10.2.4) to process php. 
the scripts get executed as they should be. so far so hoopy. the problem 
is the cookie. i have a login.php which checks user input and depending 
on the results either sets a cookie, displays a message and proceeds to 
the next page or returns to the login page. the problem is, it doesn't 
work. the next page checks the cookie and if it isn't set, it returns to 
the login page. this keeps happening even when it should proceed to the 
order forms.
now the strange thing: before i had to reinstall OSX, it worked nicely.

what can i do about this? any suggestions?

[PHP] Global VARS.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

To get ride of magic_quotes I do:
function no_magicquotes() {
  global $HTTP_GET_VARS ;
  global $HTTP_POST_VARS ;
  global $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS ;
  if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
   // Overrides GPC variables
  for (reset($HTTP_GET_VARS); list($k, $v) = each($HTTP_GET_VARS); )
   $$k = stripslashes($v);
   for (reset($HTTP_POST_VARS); list($k, $v) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS); )
 $$k = stripslashes($v);
  for (reset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS); list($k, $v) = each($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS);)
 $$k = stripslashes($v);
 }
}
And it seems to work, But i have have a file like that:
$VAR_mailadmin = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ;
$VAR_urlgallery= "http://www.siova.net/paris2"; ;
$VAR_categories[0]["title"] = "Montréal by Night" ;
$VAR_categories[0]["name"]  = "Mtl by night" ;
$VAR_categories[0]["file"]  = "montreal_by_night" ;
...
And many others variables. And magic_quotes seems to work for global 
vars too. Is there a way to modify no_magicquotes() to make this 
function works with all global vars ? Another for...each...but how ?

Thanks,
Vincent.

[PHP] Easy Way.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

Is there an easy way to change an integer to a 5 caracters string.
For example:
$i = 3 ;
$j = 110 ;
After having changed them:
$i = "3" ;
$j = "00110" ;
Is there a php function to do so instead of doing this:
  if( ($i>0)&&($i<10)) {
$i = "".$i ;
  } else if( ($i>9)&&($i<100)) {
$i = "000".$i ;
  } else if( ($i>99)&&($i<1000)) {
$i = "00".$i ;
  } etc...
Thanks :-)

Use str_pad, the manual page is available at http://www.php.net/str_pad,
a short example would be:
$i = 3;
$i = str_pad($i, 5, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);
This function is described in the PHP manual in the string functions
section, the manual is an excellent place to go first when questions
such as this arise.
Yes I know, but it's not so easy to find to right function I need there

[PHP] HTTP_POST_VARS empty!

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I don't understand this code empty my HTTP_POST_VARS variable:
if ((get_magic_quotes_gpc() == 1)) {
  switch ($REQUEST_METHOD) {
  case "POST":
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
  $$key = stripslashes($val);
}
break;
  case "GET":
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_GET_VARS)) {
  $$key = stripslashes($val);
}
break;
  }
}
This script is usefull to simulate get_magic_quotes_gpc to 0 but if I do 
 it it empty my HTTP_POST_VARS and this code does not work:
while(list ($key, $val) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
  echo "$key => $val";
}
echo "Here we are...!!!..." ;

It displays, "Here we are...!!!..." but nothing at all for $key and for $val

How should I do to simulate get_magic_quotes_gpc to 0 without emptying 
HTTP_POST_VARS ?

Thanks,
Vincent.
PS: If I delete the code ...(get_magic_quotes_gpc() == 1)...it works...

ok,
It seems to empty the HTTP_POST_VAR variable when we parse it with
while(list ($key, $val) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
...
}
So I can't do this while 2 times :-( and I need to do it several times!
Does anyone know how to parse $HTTP_POST_VARS whithout emptying this 
variable ?

[PHP] Sensibly accounting for timezone differences?

[M Wells]

Hi All,

I'm an Australian PHP developer and host most of my web sites on US
servers. One in particular is primarily accessed by Australian visitors
and I want to be able to reflect Australian Eastern Standard Times when
writing / reporting records, rather than the server time, which is set
to US Eastern Standard Time.

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if there is a sensible way to do
this easily?

Many thanks in advance!

Regards and best wishes,

[PHP] Searching for a file.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I am looking for a way to search a file knowing the beginig of his name. 
For exemple, I know that the file I am looking for is:
montreal_13_120.jpg
But I just know:
montreal_13
And I can't know _120.jpg

So at this time I did this:
$dirthumbs = $dir."/thumbs" ;
$direc_src_obj2 = dir($dirthumbs) ;
while($entry=$direc_src_obj2->read()) {
  if( substr($entry, 0, 15) == "$begining"){
$return[$i]["thumb"] = "$entry" ;
break ;
  }
}
It works but it's not enough fast :-(
For resume, is there a way to do something like that:
ls montreal_13*
without using the passthru function, I am looking for a native php 
function doing ls $mychar*

Thanks,
Vincent.

[PHP] Zip Way of life.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I'd like to uncompress to the Hard disk a zip file send by the browser.

At this time I do this:

function uncompresszip($zipfile) {
  copy($zipfile, dirname($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'])."/zip/zipfile.zip") ;
}
But I do not understand how to uncompress the zip file, I tried for exemple:
$retour = 
readgzfile(dirname($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'])."/zip/zipfile.zip");

But as mentionned in the php doc it outputs the content of the zip file 
in the browser :-(

How to uncompress a zip file in a directory ? I just want all the files 
which are in the zip file...

Thanks,
Vincent.

Either use zip file functions (rarely supported) or PclZip

No, it works with .zip files too, I just don't know how to manage it :-(

You mentioned wanting the "files" (note the plural) in the zip file.
AFAIK gunzip can unzip an archive containing a single file, but if you
have more than one in there then you need to use an actual unzip tool
(like, say, unzip :-)
While a class or a built-in command might be nice, if you just want to
get them out then a simple system call might be the easiest way to go.
HTH & HAND

:-D
Yes but gunzip does not work when there are more than one file in the 
zip file and unzip is not installed by on Unix servers. :-(

[PHP] Test the server.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

Is there anyway to check these two things:
 - If the server is an Unix server.
 - If a command is available on the server.
For exemple, I need to test if the shell command unzip is avalaible to do:
exec("unzip ...something...") ;
So I can test if exec is available doing:
if(function_exists(exec)) {
  ...
}
But how to test if a shell command is available on the server and if the 
server is an Unix-like server ?

Thanks.
