I searched using the terms 'list' and 'reply-to', and the thread was on
the first page. But it depends on which archive you're searching, of
course, and you didn't specify which one you are looking in. The one I
used was http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general&r=1&w=2

This is correct. Many lists have used reply-to in a broken fashion, and
many people have become trained to expect this behaviour. Please do a
search on the net for a document entitled 'Reply-to Considered Harmful'
for more discussion on the topic. I've seen arguments about this every
couple of months for the last 10 years and quite frankly am too sick of
it to bother anymore. (And no, I don't run this list, I just work on
the manual.)

This is not a valid assumption. I would consider any list broken which

I disagree. Oddly, I've known people who have been operating using the
correct methodology for well over a decade with no ill effects.

Hi,
I am need to pass serialized assotiative array via form hidden field
(not GET or POST). In order to do it, I did the following:
urlencode(serialize($my_array)). However, after retrieving data from
hidden field and unserialize I've got junk.
Someone can explain me what I did wrong?
Also, do I need to do addslashes/stripslashes with serialized (or
encoded ?) data?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

I am need to pass serialized assotiative arrays (qty of 3) TO form
without GET, using hidden fields, but of course, I will use POST to
acquire form data.

Yes, I did. I've got junk on my web page, because of special chars and
sequences in "serialized" data.

Just tried it out and you should use htmlspecialchars() instead of
urlencode(). When you put it in a hidden field the browser is
responsable for urlencoding the data.

Why are you urlencode'ing it?

Did you urldecode it before you unserialized it? Better yet, don't
urlencode it at all.

You shoudn't, but if you add on the submit, don't forget to strip on the
retrival.

This is impossible. A hidden form field is simply a form field that is not
displayed to the user. Form actions must be GET or POST.
> In order to do it, I did the following: urlencode(serialize($my_array)).
Don't URL encode the value of the form field, since the browser will take care
of that. You should probably use POST rather than GET, because serializing an
array might yield a very long string and make the URL too large for the Web
browser and/or Web server to handle.
Hope that helps.

Hi,
Paul is right, you can't change the Return-Path header. On a windows server
you could use the 'sendmail_from' setting in php.ini, but that doesn't work
on Linux/Unix. Also, the -f 5th argument of the mail() function does not
function with safe_mode on in php. It also generates a
X-Authentication-error in the emailheader (for me, at least) and I am told
it can lead to dangerous security problems.
I gave up some time ago to try and fix this problem. When my emails don't
reach the target because visitors don't fill in their correct emailaddress,
I won't receive any delivery errors. I used Reply-To, Error-To and whatever
more, but I couldn't fix it. Maybe something can be added to a later release
of PHP to fix this? I for one would be extremely happy with that.

Why not just add the From: header to the fourth mail() param?
Something like this:
$email = "userwherever.org";
$admin_email = "webmastermath.purdue.edu";
$body = "blah blah blah";
$mail = mail($email, "Information you requested", $body, "From: $admin_email");
I've found that this sets the headers the way most clients expect to
see them. We use it a lot to tidy up emails set from "reset your
password" functions and the like. It should be trivial to set the
From: header based on a db result or whatever.
There is a much expanded version of this solution regarding sending
emails with attachments through mail() on in the online php manual,
check out "kieran dot huggins at rogers dot com"'s comments and some
others on the http://us4.php.net/mail page (it's a 06-Nov-2002
comment).
I'm coming in a bit late to this conversation -- hopefully I'm not
too far off base with this reply. If I am, sorry!

You would need to set 'SMTP' and 'sendmail_from' in your php.ini. The
'sendmail_path' doesn't work for Windows, so you can leave that blank.
Nothing else changes then...

Does mail() return true? I mean, do you get printed "U redu je"? If so, your
email should've been sent by PHP.
You are really missing a bunch of headers. I'm not sure if this is your
problem, but I think it's not a bad idea to include more headers, also
because more and more ISP's add some kind of spamfilter which might drop
your email. So maybe by adding more headers, you can solve this.
I use this:
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3\r\n";
$headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: Normal\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP/".phpversion()."\r\n";
$headers .= "From: Name <YouDomain.com>\r\n";
$body = "Whatever is in your email";
$to = "Name <Where-everthis-needs-to-go.com>";
$check_mail = mail($to, "Subject", $body, $headers);

When PHP sends an email to a non existing email address such as
YouDomain.com, the warning mail you normally get returned often does not
arrive in your mailbox. Therefore I add two additional headers:
."Reply-To: medomain.nl\r\n"
."Return-path: <medomain.nl\r\n"
and now I do get the notification mail when mail bounces.

That's funny, because I always had that problem, too. By adding Reply-To and
Return-path, it did not fix my problem. Boucing emails never got back to me.
Return-path was overwritten by my hostingserver to 'nobody...' and Reply-To
was apparently ignored by the server bouncing the email. Do you think
servers differ in this a lot?

So much confusion on mail.....
Return-Path: inserted by all smtp servers on delivery.
Reply-To: handled by client
Errors-To: Maybe handled by smtp server.

Check your php.ini for this setting : 'register_globals'. With your new
installation, it is set to off, causing $_POST['name'] (the original
variable!) not to be registered to $name. With register_globals set to on,
you can use your first script.
I want to warn you though, PHP depricates the use of register_globals = On,
so it would be recommendable to use your modified script and keep coding
using $_POST, $_GET and these kind of global variables.

This is off topic for this list but here goes...
SELECT * FROM tablename GROUP BY id_comp
will probably do it.

I don't know how postgres server would optimize the query, but in teory
there should be only a slight overhead as the (I)LIKE results should be

Dear Michael;
I am Requesting your help, Redhat 7.3 to connect to the remote windows MS

Days and trying to use FreeTDS..
can you help please how to confiure php with sybase as you said?? because it
told me mssql_connect call for undefined function... but actualy i need to
use odbc_connect from linux...
more info:
-I need to connect from Linux box ( www server) and retrieve the data from a
remote MS SQL 7 , that located on the same network..
-please note that their is a CISCO firewall between the two.. and it only
allowed tcp/ip with ports 80, 443 , 1433 for ODBC... ( from windows to
windows I managed, but from LINUX)
-I spent a lot of time trying to use unixODBC with php-odbc , iODBC ,
freeTDS .. and whatever I could do, and until now I didn't find a way to
connect.. and I was getting so much errors like unixODBC DSN not found ...
so much painful story..
PLEASE HELP ME COZ I M GOING TO PULL MY HAIR OFF....

I've never had the need to do this, so I cannot verify that this
works, but I believe you can supply a port number in the servername
argument:
mssql_connect('192.168.0.1:1433', 'someuser', 'somepass');
You can also define this in the FreeTDS "interfaces" file, I believe,
but again I'm not sure as I use the default port.
>can u give me some hints regarding the FreeTDS
Read this article, it helped me out immensely when I set it all up:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/alberto20000919.php3
>if i used it then i have to confugure the DSN in liunx am i wrong?
Not sure what you mean here. If you're referring to a Windows "Data
Source Name" then that is not really relevant on a Linux platform. If
you have access to port 1433 on the SQL server all you need to do is
to download and install FreeTDS (follow the article above for help,
and when all else fails read the FreeTDS documentation), then rebuild
PHP with the "--with-sybase" option. After you have done that you can
simply supply an IP address or hostname to the mssql_connect() call.
Give it a shot and if you run into problems I'd be glad to try an
answer any specific questions you may have.

hi there my next project at work is to build an ad server for both image and
flash , i am storing each ad entry into a banner_ads table then another
table media to store each of the banners into which links to the banner ,
although in the created admin tool i allow for multiple uploads so a flash
file can be uploaded for the banner entry and a animated gif version can
also be uploaded for the banner entry , or just an animated gif banner
version , ok so when i select for a banner with a start and end date range
which is valid and is to be shown on a selected site id i grab the files
associated with it which are the flash and image, so in my while loop i end
up with to rows of results how would it be possible to display this and how
am i able to tell if the banner is a flash file with the animated gif
version of if the banner is just an animated gif and display it differently
? let me know thankyou

hi,
i have heard a lot of people commenting about the coding style of other
programmers. i think everyone has his own style. but i also say that there
should be a standard that should be followed by everyone. i know that there
are many good tutorials that explain how to code. anyway i have my own style
i like keeping all the functions in one file and the include the file
whenever i need any function. now there are few problems in that. i prefer
writing functions for almost everything sometimes the functions file grows
to over 5,000 lines. now this is not good. when ever i need one simple
function i had to include all the file. now i also don't like keeping
functions in every file that uses it. this is becoming a big problem for me.
also i have seen some programmer that prefer to use only one file as front
end and place switch or if conditions and include other files depending on
the condition. i think its good way of doing things but when the magnitude
of the projects grows i find it very difficult for me to keep working. i
find it very hard to concentrate.
this is the problem, i have thought of the solution i.e. divide the
functions into files. and then include only that file that has the function.
but i thought i would ask you people how you handle this. may be i would
find something that suits me more then this solution.
thanx in advance.

That's how I usually do it - for example, I have a file called
"dates.lib.php" which contains all my functions for handling dates and
times, a file called "db.lib.php" which has my database stuff, etc etc.
You may also want to look into classes, which provide a neat way to
compartmentalise your code. Personally I don't find them very useful unless
the project is large or has many programmers, though.

I do a little of all three, myself. But, it depends on the project.
If the project is small enough, a single function file will do. I start
to segregate functions by category when I see logical divisions between
the functions. (I.e. billing things, statistical things, etc.) Then I
choose which function libaries to call based on whatever criteria I have
on hand -- usually user input.
Often it's simpler than that -- a project could have a "billing.php"
script that calls "functions-billing.php", and "stats.php" that calls
"functions-stats.php". And if a particular billing function wants to
use something out of stats, it can simply include that library.
Another thing I've done from time to time (though I wouldn't recommend
it) is name your function library after a variable that's used to denote
the part of the program you're running in. For example:
if (ereg('^[a-z]+$',$sect)) include("functions-" . $sect . ".php");
That way, you're basing your include on something that you're already
managing, perhaps as a form or session variable. YMMV. Don't forget to
do your sanity checking. This method may be prone to security problems.

if i am at the root level then i store "./" in it. and if i am one folder
under the root then i store "../" in it. now as i tend to name variables

Whoa! Nasty and inefficient!!
I can understand if you decide initially to use a brute-force drop-in
replacement for register_globals, and leave modifying the rest of your code
until later, but really:
(i) Better:
// _GET
if (isset($_GET))
foreach ($_GET as $key=>$val)
{
$$key = $val;
}
(ii) Even better:
// _GET
if (isset($_GET))
extract($_GET);
Cheers!

Whoa! Nasty and inefficient!!
I can understand if you decide initially to use a brute-force drop-in
replacement for register_globals, and leave modifying the rest of your code
until later, but really:
(i) Better:
// _GET
if (isset($_GET))
foreach ($_GET as $key=>$val)
{
$$key = $val;
}
(ii) Even better:
// _GET
if (isset($_GET))
extract($_GET);
Cheers!

You can shorten it down a bit:
if (isset($_REQUEST) ) {
foreach($_REQUEST as $key => $val) {
$$key = $val;
}
}
I'm not sure if session is there but I know the $_REQUEST has all GET,
POST and COOKIE vars. Of course this isn't completely compatible with
how register_globals works. There is GPC ordering of where to get the
variables from.
$GPC = "GPC"
for($i = 0; i < strlen($GPC); $i++) {
switch($GPC{$i}) {
case 'G': $VAR = '_GET'; break;
case 'P': $VAR = '_POST'; break;
case 'C': $VAR = '_COOKIES'; break;
}
if (isset($$VAR) ) {
foreach($$VAR as $key => $val) {
eval("global $$key"); //make it global if this is in a function
$$key = $val; //set value
}
}
}

It'll be different depending on what you want to happen if you pass a Friday
timestamp to the function, but it should be something like:
function friday($ts)
{
while (date("w", $ts) != 5)
$ts -= 86400;
return date("d-m-Y", $ts);
}

Actually, for this upcoming Friday, that'd just be
echo(date('U',strtotime('Friday')));
Slightly confusingly, 'next Friday' would be the Friday after that (because
'next' is defined to be equivalent to '2nd' -- no, I don't understand why
either, I just know it is!!)

Take a look at strtotime() -- http://www.php.net/strtotime
Some combination of words using the word 'Friday' should get you what you want -- try something like strtotime('last Friday') ('-2 Friday', '-3 Friday', etc.,) to see if it does what you want; if not, you may need something like 'last week Friday', '-2 weeks Friday', etc., or some other more complex combination.

Hi John,
Thanks for your response.
Actually i am thinking on the same way except saving
the URL of the page. You gave me a really good tip of
storing the URL with all other information.
Additionally, i was thinking to implement the "Save"
feature of MS word. So user can keep saving his/her
work after some period of time..
There is still one problem. On so many forms on my
education intranet application, students are
submitting the final projects with the supporting
documents and images. Once they submit the final
project, my script is performing serveral error
checking for the file size, extension etc. What should
i have to do for those kind of stuff? Because if
someone submits a very large file then my script won't
be able to upload the file (because of PHP file upload
limit set into the php.ini)
Let me know if you have any suggestion for improving
this functionality a little bit more.
Thanks again for your positive reply.

Look in the manual under 'printer'..

Printer functions are server-side and work on Windows operating systems

It seems like $DownloadUpdateArray[$_REQUEST['dw_code']][1] takes so long.
Or the previous code alwyas takes 29.9 secs, who knows.
You can tell php.ini that scripts can take some time longer dan 30 secs, or
you can add a line to prolong the script time
(http://nl2.php.net/function.set-time-limit) or you can try to make that
function faster.
I have some extra headers to prevent several problems:
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in
the past
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); // always
modified
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache"); // HTTP/1.0
header("Content-type: text/csv"); //adapt to
your file type
header('Content-Disposition: inline; filename="filename.ext"');
Note that internet explorer 5.5 does not accept the 'attachment' part so
for your header with 'attachement;' in it consider to add this conditional:
if (strstr($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"],"MSIE 5.5")) {$att = "";} else {$att
= " attachment;";}

It doesn't. Your script is taking over 30 seconds to run you will need
to find out why and where its taking to long or extend your time-out
setting.
btw, also on the content-disposition, not only will some browsers not
honor that, they will just use the name of the script as the 'save-as'
filename.

That's okay with the 'save as' filename because no one know hte real
filename on the webserver because it is renamed when it is download anyway.
