[PHP] If statement w/ multiple conditions
I'll be trying to use a routine that checks 4 seperate variables for content and need to know the easiest method to do so. The function works on 2 conditions; either all the variables are empty and I do something or I do something else. $lineone $linetwo $linethree $linefour Would you use if ($lineone && $linetwo && $linethree && $linefour = "") Thanks, Ed -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] If statement w/ multiple conditions
All four must be an empty string. I will be pulling the values from a MySQL database. If these fields are empty I'll be prompting for information. If any one of them contain anything I'll be showing it to the user and asking if they want to change it.

Re: [PHP] If statement w/ multiple conditions
The db will include these 4 rows even though they don't store data.
Eventually they will contain data for contact info as soon as the users
log in and it prompts them for it.

Re: Re[2]: [PHP] How to handle "so called" expired sessions??
I've noticed this as well with the things I've been doing for sessions. They way I understand it is that the server side session storing values is supposed to expire after a certain lenght of time. I currently have this at default so I think it should expire after 24 mins. The cleanup is done within php itself so nothing is cleaned up until php is called again. Is this correct? If so, I have sessions located within my /tmp directory that are over 3 weeks old and have been there ever since they were first created.

[PHP] PHP and PDF Forms
Anyone have some good examples of using PDF forms and parsing the form using PHP? I've done some searching (ala google and manual) but all they seem to mention is parsing a .fdf file. Seemingly when you use a PDF form and set the action to a php script a file is still generated on the client machine in the temp directory that inserts the context of the action taken by the script it's sending the form data to. For instance, I set a pdf form to pass the form data to a file called pdfform.php on my server. The pdfform.php file parses the data then stores it in a database. This works. From there the pdfform.php script sends the user to my homepage. What happens from here is the page comes up but is being called by a file on the local machine. The file po3426.html located in my temp directory is actually made up of the source code for my homepage. All I really want to do is yuse the data from the form and continue on with my script. How do I go about that? TIA, Ed -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] PHP and FDF
I'm trying to create web page based on a PDF Form with the action
assigned to a php script to parse out the vars. It seems to be working
because I can parse and write the vars to a database but it seems that a
file is getting passed back to the client containing the output of the php
script that was called. If I write in a header("Location") command and
route the client to another page their browser opens a file locally on
their computer that contains the source code of the page called. How do I
just get the results of the form?

Re: [PHP] Cannot show reuploaded image file on page unless manualrefresh
Aha! Something I can chime in on. I happened across the same scenario a
few months back. The list helped me then so I'll give back.
Call the image using a random identifier.
$rand = rand(1000, );
echo "http://someurl.com/image.jpg?$rand";;
Since the browser will more than likely not have the image file identified
by the random number it must request it again from the server. Works
great where I need it!

Re: [PHP] authentication
There is a way to supposedly do this by authenticating a username and
password through php first through such methods as database lookups and
then passing the username and password through $PHP_AUTH_USER and
$PHP_AUTH_PW using the header() command to point to the URL of the
.htaccess protected directory but I have never gotten it to work myself.
if ($pass = $pass) {
header("Location:$PHP_AUTH_USER:$PHP_AUTH_PW@http://www.someprotectedsite.com";);
}
My command above my be wrong. I haven't tried it for a while. I know you
can do such a thing on the Address bar of any browser and pass it that way
though.

Re: [PHP] authentication
I don't think the process is an extra step at all. In fact, it's just a
trade off using one or the other. You can either login using php and a
database backend or just authenticate using .htaccess directives.
In my case (a few months back) what I was trying to do was offer up a
single login page for 500 or so different companies each having their own
directory on my server. Each directory is password protected via
.htaccess. They would all login using my php interface which would in turn
check the username and password for matching. Their database record would
also contain the URL to their directory on my server. After logging in I
tried to use a header call containing the username, password and URL but
it never quite worked although you can actually do it in the address bar
of the browser with ease. Theoretically it should work like a charm but I
never got the chance to investigate any further because I was rushed off
to the next "Big Project."

[PHP] Date format from file
Is it possible to read a string from a text file (i.e.
0502031130) and be able to use that in a date function such as:
$date = date("dmyHi", strtotime('+28 days));
How would I use that string as the date in the above code?
TIA,

RE: [PHP] Date format from file
I'm not using this for any database related function. What I'm trying to
do is come up with a method for scheduling processes needed for our
company that are run through command line php scripts. I'll be using cron
or to run a command that will check the date within the file and see if
the process needs to be run on that day and then rewrite the date + 28
days back into the file spawning the process if need be. To the best of my
knowledge cron cannot run schedules this way. It can only run on specific
days or times outlined directly. Our processes must run every 28 days, not
a specific day of the month. If there is any other scheduling system out
there that can do this type of thing on Linux/Unix I'd much rather use it
than doing it this way.

Thanks alot for all the help. Using cron to run the checktime script I
can then make sure the process gets run on the exact time it needs to be
run along with the exact date in the file.

[PHP] Running system commands
Before I ask, I have read the documentation but nothing seems to work.
I want to run a system command from behind the scenes (totally secure
area of my server) that creates a directory and changes permissions on it.
i.e. system ("mkdir $path");
Example above uses a value from a form passed to the script and is
assigned from $_POST['path'];
When I run it no directory is created. Ideas??
Thanks,
Ed

[PHP] Making a true statement false.
Whenever I query a database with php I've always used the following code
as a result.
if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
do something }
else {
do seomthing else }
This method will persuades you to take action on something true first then
false.
How would I write it so it would assume false then true?
Thanks,

Re: [PHP] Basic Auth question
That is one way to try it but I haven't been able to get it to work.
Questions about PHP variable authentication through .htaccess protected
directories has been brought up many times since I've been on this list
but has never been completly answered. Apparently it cannot be done. The
closest thing you can do is create a .htaccess type pop up with PHP but
the username and password still have to be entered via the user which is
what I take to be what you are trying to avoid.

[PHP] PHP and Mysql Limit
I've created a script that reads a sorted mysql query and outputs specific
results into text files defined by the start and limit of mysql. The
database holds 178 records. I want to start my output on #9 with 10
records per page. Should leave me with 17 equal pages right?
$count = 178
$start = 8; (Mysql starts at record 0)
$per_page = 10;
$page = 1;
while ($start <= $count) {
$fp = fopen("Page$page.txt", "w");
mysql_connect ($host, $user, $pass);
mysql_select_db ($database);
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM internal_listings, agents WHERE
internal_listings.agent = agents.name AND category = 'Standard' ORDER by
area,price LIMIT $start, $per_page");
if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
do {
##misc ouput to file $fp for 10 records in query
}
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result));
}
fclose($fp);
mysql_close();
$start = $start + $per_page;
$page++;
}
When I run the script outlined above I get 18 pages. Page number 18 is
blank as it should be as there should be no more listings to output to a
text file but why is there a page number 18 to begin with? It should end
with page number 17.
Thanks in advance for any insight,
Ed

Yes, the next page of results would start at #18. The page number only
increments by 1.

The recordset would not alway contain an even number of records resulting
in 10 records per page. It may contain something like 1027 records which
should then produce 103 pages. 102 pages each with 10 records and one page
of only 7 records.

Re: [PHP] Re: Red Hat 9, Apache 2, and PHP
I'm current;y in the process of setting up a new web server myself. The obvious choice for me was to use Red Hat 7.3 for the install. On a clean install all the nice options are already present, (ssl, php, mysql, gd lib) which is much better thatn what we used to run, Red Hat 5.2! Been running that for the past 4 years on that dinosaur.

Re: [PHP] Re: Red Hat 9, Apache 2, and PHP
Does anyone remember the warning concerning MySQL and glibc. I distinctly remember some conflict between the two and up2date installing a bad mismatch lib making MySQL act funny.

[PHP] Older Version problems
I'm moving some scripts to a new server but the PHP installation on the new server is actually older than the version I currently have installed on the production server. I'm moving from 4.2.3 to 4.1.2. In my file upload scripts I can't seem to get any $_FILES values out of my upload. The scripts don't error out and the file appears to transfer. I've enabled E_ALL and logging. Uploads are on and max upload size is sufficient. When I check $_FILES['filename']['tmp_name'] or ['size'] or ['name'] or ['type'] they are all empty. Did I miss something in the ini file somewhere? I'd really hate to upgrade at this time as this came from a Red Hat 7.3 install and I'd hate to lose all the functions that are already pre-compiled into it (gd, mysql, etc) Thanks, Ed -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Yes, the method below would work just fine if you only needed to display

[PHP] Error on mysql_num_rows
I've been trying to count records that match my query in MySQL using the
examples given in the on-line manual as well as the user comments and I'm
still getting the error:
Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource.
Here's the code.
mysql_connect ($local_host, $local_user, $local_pass);
mysql_select_db ($local_db);
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT count(id) FROM listings WHERE agent =
'$agent' AND child = '0'");
$rc = mysql_num_rows($result);
mysql_close();
Is there something I'm missing here? I've tried using just about every
example in the on-line manual and get the same error. I can run other
queries just fine though.

[PHP] PHP or Mysql or Combination
I'm currently stuck in a project where I need to pull info from a
database and sort it by order of 2 seperate fields and creates a text
report of the results. No problems there but
now what the boss is wanting to do is break it up into slices of 8 records
per file and save each file individually so you get issue3page1.txt is the
first 8 results from the query and issue3page2.txt would be result 9-16 of
the query. Anything results less than 8 for the final recordset would
consitute 1 page as well.
Here's what Im using now.
--
mysql_connect ($host, $user, $pass);
mysql_select_db ($database);
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM listings,agents WHERE listings.agent
= agents.name ORDER by area, price DESC");
if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
do {
$agent = $row['agent'];
if ($row['banner'] != "No Banner") {
fputs($fp, $row['banner']);
}
fputs($fp, $nl);
fputs($fp, $sp);
fputs($fp, $sp);
fputs($fp, $ar);
fputs($fp, $sp);
fputs($fp, $row['area']);
fputs($fp, $sp);
fputs($fp, $dol);
fputs($fp, number_format($row['price'], ","));
fputs($fp, $sp);
fputs($fp, $sp);
fputs($fp, $nl);
fputs($fp, $row['copy']);
fputs($fp, $nl);
$agent_name = $row['name'];
fputs($fp, $agent_name);
fputs($fp, $nl);
$line1 = $row['line1'];
$line2 = $row['line2'];
$line3 = $row['line3'];
$line4 = $row['line4'];
fputs($fp, $line1);
fputs($fp, $nl);
fputs($fp, $line2);
fputs($fp, $nl);
fputs($fp, $line3);
fputs($fp, $nl);
fputs($fp, $line4);
fputs($fp, $nl);
fputs($fp, $nl);
}
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result));
}
fclose($fp);
mysql_close();
echo "Done Creating Sorted Listing Report";
------
How would I go about creating files of 8 records each in individual
files?
Thanks,

[PHP] strtr question
I want to remove unwanted characters from filenames of files uploaded to our server. I am currently using strtr to do this.

[PHP] PHP and .htaccess
I didn't want to steal a thread so here's a new one. I've seen this subject come up alot since joining the list last fall and believe that the question meant to be asked never got the expected answer simply because it wasn't asked in the correct way, myself being one of the culprits. From scanning documentation and all the responses on the list we all know PHP can do .htaccess type authentication by popping up the username/password box. That's easy enough but, can you create a form page in PHP prompting for a username and password and then redirect into an .htaccess protected directory without having the server pop up another username/password box?

[PHP] PHP extensions and multiple source files?
Howdy folks! Is there a way to have multiple *.c source files and still end up with a single *.so while using gcc? How would that be reflected in the config.m4 file?

[PHP] authorize.net
Hey all. I have an app that I need to integrate with an online payment service. I read an article here http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/Administration/CREDIT/page4.html that uses authorize.net as the example and suggests that you don't need an account to test your app with their service. Does anyone know if this is true? The article is over a year old so the info might be outdated. I tried modifying the code from the example to work for me, but I kept getting error messages back from authorize.net's servers. Stuff like "Cannot process this request." .. I tried emailing their tech support but haven't heard back from them. Does anyone know of any payment services that I can use for free just for testing my app with it? Can you suggest any php libraries out there that will make life easier? tia, --ed __ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!

Re: [PHP] What the heck is this Zope?
Check this page out: http://www.zope.org/WhatIsZope .. And click the links on that page too. I don't know much about it. But what I gather is that it's sort of like an open source "cold fusion" type application written in python. Not that it necissarily resembles cold fusion in any way, but that it's sort of a framework for building web applications. I don't know a whole lot about python either, but it looks really cool. I think python is probably a better general-purpose scripting language than php, similar to perl in that respect. But as far as building applications that are strictly for the web, is there anything as good as php? I would probably say no, but a lot of it is a matter of taste. hth, --ed - Original Message - From: Deependra B.

[PHP] funtion exporter; static inclusion of external scripts
Does anyone know of any tools for php that will let
you include only
certain functions from a file.
For example if I only wanted a function named "login"
from a file named
"func_common.php", I could maybe do something like
this:
my_require('path/to/func_common.php', 'login');
I was thinking of writing a script that would offer an
api to let you include
only certain parts of a file, or maybe you'd could use
"*" in conjunction with
a directory name to include all the files in a
directory.
What I have in mind is building a new static version
of the "main" script with the
"included" code being a part of the main script.
I guess if you're scripts are being cached then the
disk reads that
including files requires isn't that big of a deal. But
it could probably
make a big difference on sites where people aren't
caching their php scripts.
Let me know if anything like this exists.

[PHP] php/mysql slow with zone alarm
Hey all. I do most of my coding on win98 before uploading it to my web host running linux. I'm running the windows versions of apache/mysql/php. I'm using the cgi version of php. I also run the personal firewall software, zone alarm. When zone alarm is running it slows php/mysql down so much that the script usually times out. I have given these programs the permissions that they need in zone alarm. Zone alarm doesn't keep them from running, it just makes them really slow. It doesn't run slow unless I query the mysql DB from a php page. Php in and of itself is not slow, just when used in conjunction with mysql. Also, when I use mysql from the command line it doesn't seem to be slow. I know this isn't necessarily a php issue, but thought maybe some of you may have run into a problem like this before and would know a remedy. Any help appreciated. tia, --ed __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

All variables are now stored globally and can only be retrieved using

i.e.
$username = $_POST['username']; or get if your method was get in the

[PHP] coding standards - control structures
Hey all. I've read the pear coding standards.
I assume that if php has any official coding standards
then the pear standards would be them, correct?
Anyways, the pear docs on coding standards show
examples of using controls structures like
the following:
if ( !$var ) {
do_something();
}
else {
do_something_else();
}
---
But I really don't like putting the opening brace
on the same line as the control statement.
I really prefer doing this:
if ( $var )
{ do_something();
}
or
if( $var )
{ do_something();
}
else
{ do_something_else();
}
---
Putting the opening brace one line down on the same
column that the control statement starts on seems to
give me a much better visual cue, especially when
dealing with nested control statements.
Is doing it my preferred way acceptable?
Will my code be looked down on?
thanks,

[PHP] Security and register globals
Having recently switched from php 4.0.0 to 4.2.3 I quickly realized the change in variable handling. I still experience problems using the $_POST and $_GET globals so I currently have my register globals ON so I can have the ability to pass variables from page to page without using the $_POST and $_GET methods although I would really like to use them. My current project has me creating a login interface for users to access a form and file upload tools. I am using only 1 set of scripts for everyone. Each user is assigned a path to their file area and these records are kept in a MySQL database along with username, password and contact info. As Each page is loaded the ID variable is checked and table data is then loaded for them for use on that page. If the ID variable is null they are given an error and redirected to the login page. This is to keep them from bookmarking the index page for the tools. My question is this: If I were to turn off register_globals and use the $_POST and $_GET methods, what are the chances of a user getting someone else's variable information using only one set of scripts for all. There could be up to 700 people using the script at any given time. Cookies are not an options as many users may have them turned off and sessions have never worked for me or at least I have never figured them out to work the way I think they should.

RE: [PHP] Security and register globals
Correct! Problem is that I have been given explicit instructions to not use cookies to do this. The only way I can think of doing it without using cokkies is to pass at least one variable from page to page so the scripts know who the user is. Getting them to the user index page with links to the tools without knowing what the ID is was my main focus. I did this using hidden input type variables so it's not included on the URL when they get there. I could continue to do so if I were using all based links but the value could still be seen in the source for the page. Ed On Mon, 30 Sep 2002, John W.

RE: [PHP] Security and register globals
It would be possible to do this if I then created another table to load their profile data to and use the unique id as the identifier. It would make it alot harder for someone to guess an ID. I would then need a way to flush out their records from the second table when they are finished. Easily enough done using a logout script but who actually does this anymore. It would be possible to create a script to run through cron to delete records from that table that are more than say 30 minutes old. Good idea, thanks.

I thought of this was well and into the PHP documentation about this option.

[PHP] PHP and .htaccess authentication
I just got done reading the online docs concerning http authentication and tried out a script that appears on the page. Apparently it is easy enough to protect any page with http authentication after you have already forced someone to enter a username and password on a regular .htaccess prompting under Apache. What I need to try to accomplish is checking a username and password against a MySQL database and redirect to a different directory upon success. The directory would be protected via a .htaccess file. Is there a way to pass through a .htaccess file if they have already passed a previous authentication scheme as above?

[PHP] Mutiple header statements?

Nope, I still get a header already sent error if I choose "that."

This could be an option if neither of the if's matched it could continue
with additional scripting below these conditions without getting sent a
header.

My original code is:
What I'm trying to accomplish here is to check the value of a variable
against these two conditions at the very top of my script. If any one
condition matches is sends the user to it's respective script as defined
above. If neither of these conditions match it continues on with
the script. I'm getting header already sent errors if I choose the
variable that makes the second condition true. It works just fine If I
choose to make the first condition true or choose to make both conditions
false.

[PHP] Outputting multiple images
I've found a little problem that's not explicitly a php problem but I was hoping that php may be the solution. Someone is shown an image and then asked if they wish to change that image. If they answer yes they are taken to an upload form and the new image is upload to the server overwitting the old image using the same filename. They are then taken to a page to show them the image they just uploaded but the old image is diplayed from cache instead of the new photo being shown. I'm using absolute path to the image on the server, not URL. Is there a way to get the script to load in the new photos?

Re: [PHP] PHP Auth with Apache

What I've been trying to find out is how to pass through a .htaccess file if someone has already passed an database authentication lookup in PHP.

One field in their user records is the URL to their directory on our server. Each one of these directories is protected via .htaccess.

RE: [PHP] Registered sessions.
You need to append the session name and id to the header location everytime
you redirect that way. So your header redirect should read:
header('Location: researchpapers2.php?'.session_name().'='.session_id());
When you have normal links to other pages you don't have to do this but on
header redirects like the one above you do.
Hope this helps,
