AW: [PHP] Second opinion needed - javascript blocker

[Red Wingate]

Maybe u should just strip all the javascript tags out
Of the user-input (output page) with a script like this:

$text = eregi_replace("< *script[^>]*>([^<]*)<[^>]*>","//1",$test);

this should stip all the script-tags out of the text, but
will keep the text between the tags.

(the code was NOT tested :))

I am trying to block javascript from ares of my site that  users can change.
I am going to use the following code.  Can someone give me a second opinion
on whether it will work?

function stopjavascript($text){
//Stop people from using &whatever;  tags, in case they can smuggle
javascript in with that
$text = str_replace("&","&",$text);
//Stop the onmouseover, etc. parameters
$text = eregi_replace("on","o-n",$text);
//Stop script tags, as well as links to javascript:
$text = eregi_replace("script","sc-ript",$text);
//Return the edited string
return $text;
}

He might want to use this function but doing so no links or bold underline
Tags will be destroyed as well.

Try looking at htmlspecialchars() and htmlentities() instead. They'll
convert things like < and > to > and < and ampersands to &.

I'm trying to come up with a regular expression that will match the TL
and Second Level domain names in someone's email address ONLY.

So, say someone's address is "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", I
need to match ONLY pacbell.net.   It shouldn't matter what the address
looks like, I'm looking for any number of digits, a dot, any number of
digits, and the end of the line.  The closest thing I can come up with
is  /\@.+?(.+\..+)?$/, but, as you can guess, that matches everything
except the very first character.  Can anyone help me with this? Thanks

Betreff: [PHP-DB] auto-increment question

Hi all,

I'm wondering if there is a way to start an auto-increment field at a number
other than 1. I'm working on a table meant to store large amounts of users,
each with their own unique ID, but my employer wants the UIDs to be a four-
digit number, rather than starting at 1 -- but they still need to auto-
increment. Can this be done, or do I need to find a workaround (and if so,
can anyone suggest anything?)

Thanks in advance,

Dan

I might be wrong but :

ORDER BY id";
> $ret = mysql_query($query);
> while($row = mysql_fetch_array($ret))

is absolutely wrong ... the first $ret and $row is replaced by the
second $ret and $row, try to change the names of one of those
two pairs and give it another try.

I looks to me as if one row executes the IF and another one the ELSE
Statement ( try to let the script die(); after one the first while.

The CLI SAPI was released for the first time with PHP 4.2.0, but was still 
experimental and had to be explicitly enabled with --enable-cli when 
running ./configure. Since PHP 4.3.0 the CLI SAPI is no longer experimental 
and the option --enable-cli is on by default. You may use --disable-cli to 
disable it.

Using:  './configure --enable-cli --with-mysql' is just right :-)

My way to go:
1. Display the form
2. Check all required fields (name start with req_)
2.1 ( ok ) Parse page and display input instead of fields
2.2 ( fail ) Parse page and display form again with values inserted
3. Send the E-Mail

You could also build your own client using PHP displaying threads by using
the imap_thread function which will return the structure of the mails.
But you will have serious performance troubles as you are only allowed to
fetch all headers at once :-(

I'm no DB guru, but as I understand it what you want to do requires 
the use of foreign keys.  InnoDB tables implement them, but I don't 
think they currently grab the related information when you do SELECT 
statements.  It sounds like you are emulating that right now with your 
SQL statements, and I don't think that any of the 4.x versions of 
MySQL will fully support foreign keys.  I did find something 
interesting, though: apparently MySQL is going to support 
*stored_procedures* and *foreign_keys* in the 5.0-5.1 branch.  I may 
have to go play with some of the 5.0 alpha stuff soon...


Alternatively, use a better database :)
Firebird has had Triggers and Stored Procedures from the start. Using 
these with PHP gives the power needed to update cross references without 
having to build complex PHP code.

Hi,

this is a plain design fault on your side:



allright, just set $a to be a string, thats allright, now
you check wether an string-offset ( foo ) is an array or
not which causes an FATAL ERROR on PHP5.

Now if you wrote some clean code you would have done:



Now this makes sense as you first of all would make sure if $a is an
array and not start with the first index ( which doesn't exist as $a
is not even an array )

[PHP] Re: $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] in read-only.

[Red Wingate]

AFAIK the content of the superglobal variables cannot be changed ( even
though i haven't found this in the docs i can remeber got beaten by PHP
for doing so :-) )
Back to the problem ( if existent ):

If you don't do stuff like '$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = ;' inside your
script you won't run into trouble - I know some ppl like to use such
strange work-arounds ;-)
Otherwise using
define ( 'SERVER_NAME' , $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] );
right at startup will usually solve your problem ( as workarounds will
most likely kill other scripts if the SERVER_NAME is diffrent :-))

Hello,

I am using the variable $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] inside a function, for 
example:

function check_servname() {
  global $server ;
  if($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] != $server) {
 echo "NOT OK, NOT GOOD SERVER NAME" ;
 exit ;
   }
}
But we can modify the value of $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] before calling 
the function check_servname(). And I am looking for a the right server 
name not for a server name which may have been changed before calling 
check_servername:
$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = "www.google.com" ; //before calling 
check_servname and $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] will be "www.google.com" 
inside the function even the server name is not "www.google.com".

Is there any way to get the server name with a variable which would be 
read-only ?

Thanks,
Vincent.


Agreed - constants are the way to do this.  I wanted to mention that the 
$_SERVER variables are meant to hold values generated by your server. Of 
course if you really ARE google then I'm going to feel stupid for even

zap you are done ... again when using a function to include
a file with relying on depts within the file you would most
probably use a registry-pattern or similar to access the required
variables.

That makes local copies only, still no access to the global variable

The other thing to consider is that everything dies at the conclusion of

[PHP] Re: Select from 24 tables

[Red Wingate]

First, this is a MySQL Question, next time you better send your request
to a list which covers your type of question.
use tablename.fieldname in your WHERE clause if you have fields with the
same name.

Hi List,

How do I select data from 24 table in my database.

Each one is identical in structure layout being

Id,name,list

I want to select where like $_POST[var] from a form all of the tables but I
am having trouble :(
I thought making a var string like

$string = "table1,table2,table3,.";

And doing

(select * from $string where list like \"%$_POST[var]%\");

Would work but I get a MySql error which say "Column: 'list' in where clause
is ambiguous"
I am stumped so I ask the list for help or advise please.

Any advise is very much appreciated and I thank you in advance for any help
or pointers.
Thank you

[PHP] Re: Sorting text with multibyte characters

Run into this before, PHP seams to do quite well when you set the locale
right ( de_DE ) which will place AÄBCD instead of ABCDÄÖÜ.

Hi,

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to effectively sort text with

them seems to be made for string comparison.

Re: [PHP] Multiple substring replacement

In this special case you would even use 'file' to read the content
of the file into an array and use 'implode' to replace every \n with

$content = implode( "" , file ( './my_file.txt' ) );

Hi Rene,
Here's a thought- make your animated gif that's a "grow-bar"
that fills from left to right. Maybe it maxes out at 99% or
loops back around to 0 after reaching 100. :) Display this at
the top of the screen - but not within a table that is part of
the results display. More on why shortly.
Send about 256 characters of HTML (including the IMG SRC link
to your gif), then issue a flush(). At this point begin your
long-running query, displaying output as it becomes avialable.
Once the output is complete, issue a javascript that changes
the gif to a different one that's not animated (ex: 100%).
A few things to keep in mind:
 - Some IE browsers won't display anything until 255 chars
have been output- hence the 256 number above.
 - Some NS browsers won't display a portion of a table until
the entire table including closing tag has been written.
Hence, don't put your grow-bar inside a table unless it's
completed before issuing the long-running query.
Hope this helps,
james

When Expedia.com is searching for flights, it displays a page with a
little animated GIF progress bar, then display the results.
How do they do that? How does the page sit idle until the query is
finished, and then sends a new page with the results? I was thinking
that they might use HTTP-REFRESH or something, and just keep hitting
the database until the result is there. But is there a "best way" to do
this? In my application, when the user clicks a certain button, it will
take 10-20 seconds for the operation to complete—during that time I
need the web browser to "waiit" for the data.
I looked around for an article on this, but I'm not sure how to
characterize this operation.

the magic constant __FILE__ will give you the absolut filesystem

Content-Length request header, approximately, it also contains other

H, thanks Marek.  That might work, though I'm not entirely sure.  
The form through which users upload files can upload five at a time, 
so I'm assuming that the content-length request header would contain 
the sum total of all uploaded files, and I don't really see how I 
could get the individual sizes.

Thoughts?

Then you are lost. If you want it really bad, you can turn on 
always_populate_raw_post_data and parse the post stream, but 
post_max_size will still limit you anyway.

[PHP] Re: OT?? -> calling frames within frames

[Red Wingate]

Allright, even if it's OT 
Many ways to handle it, first would be to add a function within the
frameset which handles redirects to the frames:

   function handleFrameRedirect ( frame , url ) {
   document.frames[ frame ].document.location.href = url ;
   }

Within the frame you use

   parent.handleFrameRedirect(  ,  );

Another way is calling this directly within the frame:

   parent.document.frames[  ].document.location.href =  ;

Re: [PHP] OOP, Classes, Sharing Code

Look correct from my point of view...

   var $albums = array () ;
   function Portfolio ( $newID ) {
  $this->portfolioID = $newID ;
   }
   function addAlbum ( $album ) {

   }
   function getAlbum () {
  return current ( $this->album ) ;
   }
   
}
some knowlege on the iterator pattern is required though But you 
could even use a stack ( which i prefer )

class main {
   var $stack = NULL ;
   function create ( $ID ) {
  $this->stack = new stack ( $ID , $this->stack );
   }
   function remove ( $ID ) {
  $this->stack = $this->stack->remove();
   }
   function getID () {
  return $this->stack->getID();
   }
}
class stack {
   var $ID ;
   var $prev = NULL ;
   function stack ( $ID , $prev ) {
  $this->ID = $ID ;
  $this->prev = $prev ;
   }
   function getID () {
  return $this->ID ;
   }
   function remove () {

}
$foo = new main();
$foo->create( 100 );
$foo->create( 200 );
echo $foo->getID();// 200
$foo->remove();
$foo->create( 300 );
echo $foo->getID();// 300
$foo->remove();
echo $foo->getID();// 100

from what you wrote it seems that only the type of display is similar in
both classes. I don't think this is enough to extend them from the same base
class because the class properties and update/insert/load methods will be
different in each.
You have more of a 'is part of' relationship here. So I'd suggest something
like this (simplified):
class Portfolio {
var $portfolioID;
var $albums = array();
}
class Album {
var $albumID;
var $portfolioID;
var $photos = array();
}
class Photo {
var $photoID;
var $albumID;
var $name;

when it is put into the HTML textbox by PHP (from MySQL).
--snip--
  echo "";
--snip--
I can't use the HTML feature like " or something because the """
would show up in the database...  Any suggestion or advice?
Thanks,
 Scott F.

[PHP] Converting strings to match multiple charsets

[Red Wingate]

Hey guys,
i ran into serious trouble when facing the problem to convert
data, which was retrieved from a single form in our CMS to match
the requirements of multiple charsets.
Our CMS uses UTF-8 which worked out quite fine to display the data
but caused weired symbols when displayed within a TEXTAREA or INPUT
field. So i tried to convert all characters beyound A-Z,0-9 to
HTML entities which worked out even better ( i used the following
functions to convert the data :
function func_ConvertToHTML ( $string ) {
  $strlen = strlen ( $string ) ;
  $return = '' ;
  for ( $str_pos = 0 ; $str_pos < $strlen ; $str_pos++ ) {
$char  = substr ( $string , $str_pos , 1 );
$ascii = ord ( $char );
if ( $ascii >> 5 == 6 ) {
  $char2  = substr ( $string , ++$str_pos , 1 );
  $ascii2 = ord ($char2);
  $ascii  &= 31 ;
  $ascii2 &= 63 ;
  $ascii2 |= ( ($ascii & 3 ) << 6 ) ;
  $ascii >>=  2 ;
  $return .= '&#x' . str_pad ( dechex( $ascii ) , 2 , '0' , 
STR_PAD_LEFT ) . str_pad ( dechex( $ascii2 ) , 2 , '0' , STR_PAD_LEFT ) 
. ';' ;
} else {
  $return .= $char;
}
  }

  return $return;
}
But at this point i faced even bigger problems when using this kind
of data on JavaScripts or sending the data in an text/plain E-Mail.
I tryed to convert the data back but failed as chr() only supports
a Charset of 255 Characters ( which most languages don't match eg
ru, pl, ch, jp ... )
So my question is if anyone on this list has an idea on how to retrieve
the data completely? Some kind of func_ConvertFromHTML() function.

Can't you use utf8_decode() to display the utf8 encoded data?
[...]
The displayed data worked out fine for some languages but others didn't
and even simple german chars like äöü won't show up correctly within
a textarea.

Lill example:
[...]
$child1->setproperty("first");//displayed
$main->setChild($child1);
$child1->setproperty("second"); //NOT DISPLAYED
[...]
$child1 is passed to $main with property 'first'. Later on
you update $child1, but not $main->child, as they are not
the same objects ( equal but not same ).
So i guess you need to
-$main->setChild($child1);
+$main->setChild(&$child1);
and
-$this->child =  $child;
+$this->child =& $child; // MUST !!!
Now i see, $this->child = $child; copys the object instead
of creating a ref.

Re: [PHP] Messages to List Being Truncated

[Red Wingate]

Usually it should be \\\ to get a \ ... now lets take a look
at your regexp 
/^[a-zA-Z0-9\(\)]{1}[ a-zA-Z0-9\(\)_\,\.\-\'\"]{1,999}$/
^[a-zA-Z0-9()] should work, as ( and ) only needs to be escaped
when not within an []-block (cannot recall the name right now)
[- a-zA-Z0-9(),.'\"\\\_]{1,999}$ should be correct here, i am not
sure about the >>.<< and >>,<<. >>'\"<< should be replaced by >>\'"<<
if you use single quotes to build the pattern.
Full regexp would be:
#^[a-zA-Z0-9()][- a-zA-Z0-9(),.'\"\\\_]{1,999}$#
or even easier:
#^[a-z0-9()][- a-z0-9(),.'\"\\\_]{1,999}$#i
I replaced the delimiter / with # as you don't use it within the regexp
and using / makes escaping the >>/<< even worse ( guess it's 7 / then )
Hope this helps you :-)

Buddy,
nobody ( and especialy not me ) would have offended you, if you wouldn't
have flamed someone for creating a new thread by replying to another.
Your E-Mail client breaks the Threads just like he did which makes
reading the threads a pita.
It was stated more then once that replying useing any version of Outlook
causes troubles as they won't accept the MID ( or refs ) of other client
software on the first reply ( as every other client adds the one set by
outlook atleast every message following your initial message will follow
the thread correctly ( maybe take a look at the header information )
I would recommend you to either use some kind of Newsgroup software or
just try another e-mail client ( eg thunderbird )

Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems like a glaring bug in passing by
reference that nobody caught...
say you have 

	function foo(&$bar) 
	{
	}

well that works great as long as you use it like
foo($x);
but if you try 

foo("something here");
Or
foo( array('a','b','c') );
it shits the bed. :-(

Re: [PHP] load a URL and trap output

[Red Wingate]

Best way would be filegetcontents() and implode the content
with "\n".
eg:

http://www.somedomain.com');
$temp = implode ( "\n" , $temp );
echo $temp ;
?>

How do I make my application load a URL and trap the returned data so

Aside from the fopen() and fread() that was suggested by another person
you can also use the ob_* functions.

Re: [PHP] MySQL Writes Exception for PHP in License

[Red Wingate]

When you compile PHP --with-mysql=/path/to/mysql you will use the
libs from the installed MySQL dist , when using the bundled MySQL
libs by compiling --with-mysql you can use MySQL feature even if
you haven't installed on your maschine.

Re: [PHP] HTML Utilities

[Red Wingate]

How about this:



function toList ( $array ) {
$temp = '';
foreach ( $array AS $item ) {
if ( is_array ( $item ) ) {
$temp .= ''.toList ( $array ).'';
} else {
$temp .= ''.$item.'';
}
}
return $temp ;
}
$array = array ( 10 , 20 , array ( 30 , 40 ) );

echo toList ( $array ) ;

?>

Haven't testet it but i think this should work out quite nice :)

Re: [PHP] HTML Utilities

woops :-)



function toList ( $array ) {
  $temp = '';
  foreach ( $array AS $item ) {
if ( is_array ( $item ) ) {
  $temp .= ''.toList ( $array ).'';
} else {
  $temp .= ''.$item.'';
}
  }
  return ''.$temp.'' ;
}
$array = array ( 10 , 20 , array ( 30 , 40 ) );

echo toList ( $array ) ;

?>

This should now be well formated :-)

Re: [PHP] Re: determine logged in user

[Red Wingate]

Seen some interesting ways on doing this on the client. Basicly you run
a bash script ( on autostart for example ) and pass the login-info which
are saved in the enviroment to the server to make sure the user is known
by the server as well.
Another way could be to check wether the REMOTE_ADDR has authentificated
to the samba-server within a spec. timespan.

On the client, no.  At least, I hope not.
On the server... ?  Maybe.  Maybe if you ran a login script that wrote the
username to a file that PHP read.  I can't really think of a clean way of
doing it.

One last thing, check the PHP-DEV Archives someone send a quite nice

Maybe you guys should take a read about pre- and post-increment :-)

Is all you need for the second condition, it automatically sets

Does this always work? In my timesheet app, I have to do $counter =
$counter + 1, because for some reason the $counter++; doesn't work.
It just + doesn't
work, no incrementation of the variable. Is there something in
php.ini that can prohibit this from working? 

Thanks,
