PHP - Passing Unicode Chars Using Curl
Hi,
I am writing a PHP program to send SMS using HTTP API gateway. I use cURL to launch the URL. I am getting problems when I send UNICODE chars in the message. I am getting simply square boxes instead of UNICODE chars. When I launch the same URL directly in a browser it works well. Following is the code snippet currently I have. $message = "unicode chars here"; $launch_api = "http://xxxsss.com/send.php?message=".$message."&sender=aaa&to=xxxx&type=2&username=bbbb&password=cccc"; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$launch_api); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); $contents = curl_exec ($ch); curl_close ($ch); Could some one please help me what I am missing? Similar TutorialsHi My job in work at the moment is to write an API for an application, where external sites will be communicating with our server using cURL. They need to validate themselves with their username and password for each and every command. To make this as secure as possible, how would you suggest encrypting the password for transit, I was just going to use md5() but I don't know if this will allow the level of security that would prevent flaws.. Any suggestions welcomed. Ste I am calling CURL and trying to do a POST request with parameters: Code: [Select] $curl = curl_init(); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, Array("Accept: application/json", "Content-Type: application/json")); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 15); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, true); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "curl 7.23.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)"); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "username:password"); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.mydomain.com/route"); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true); curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "key1=blah1&key2=blah2"); return curl_exec(curl); The problem, inside the request at http://www.mydomain.com/route I am not seeing any POST parameters passed. I.E. Code: [Select] print_r($_POST); Code: [Select] Array ( ) Should have key1=blah1 and key2=blah2. Any ideas? How in php using the preg_replace php function can i allow only the basic english a-z letters, numbers 0-9 and unicode code letters and remove anything else? Hi, I have been working with inserting unicode characters into mssql database from a php application. My php web application displays the chinese characters as i entered and retrieves from database properly. But when I take a look at the database the fields are populated with some other values other than the characters i inserted. When i developed the same application in ASP.net the database has correct values inserted into it. Here is my code in php: Code: [Select] <?php // direct insert $var = mssql_connect('RAL-DEV-SQL01','TestDBSa','TestDB$@'); $selected = mssql_select_db('TestDB', $var); $myVar="日常生活"; $myChineseVar=$myVar; echo $myChineseVar; $query = "insert into TestChinese (TestName) values (N'{$myChineseVar}')"; $result = mssql_query($query,$var); echo "Inserted<br>"; echo $query; echo "<br>Result<br>"; $result2 = mssql_query("SELECT TOP 10 * FROM [TestChinese] order by SeqNum desc",$var); while($nt=mssql_fetch_array($result2)){ echo "$nt[SeqNum] - "."$nt[TestName] -"; echo "<br>"; } mssql_close($var); ?> Can someone help me with this problem Thanks This topic has been moved to PHP Regex. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=331361.0 Hi there guys, can any1 help me out to sort this thing.

Can I send this information to a specific email address instead of browser? And if Yes, can I say to this code to calculate more than one day but for more? Is this possible? Please help me with that. Thanks! [attachment deleted by admin] good day dear community, i am workin on a Curl loop to fetch multiple pages: i have some examples - and a question: Example: If we want to get information from 3 sites with CURL we can do it like so: $list[1] = "http://www.example1.com"; $list[2] = "ftp://example.com"; $list[3] = "http://www.example2.com"; After creating the list of links we should initialize the cURL multi handle and adding the cURL handles. $curlHandle = curl_multi_init(); for ($i = 1;$i <= 3; $i++) $curl[$i] = addHandle($curlHandle,$list[$i]); Now we should execute the cURL multi handle retrive the content from the sub handles that we added to the cURL multi handle. ExecHandle($curlHandle); for ($i = 1;$i <= 3; $i++) { $text[$i] = curl_multi_getcontent ($curl[$i]); echo $text[$i]; } In the end we should release the handles from the cURL multi handle by calling curl_multi_remove_handle and close the cURL multi handle! If we want to another Fetch of sites with cURL-Multi - since this is the most pretty way to do it! Well I am not sure bout the string concatenation. How to do it - Note I want to fetch several hundred pages: see the some details for this target-server sites - /(I have to create a loop over several hundred sites). * siteone.example/?show_subsite=9009 * siteone.example/?show_subsite=9742 * siteone.example/?show_subsite=9871 .... and so on and so forth Question: How to appy this loop into the array of the curl-multi? <?php /************************************\ * Multi interface in PHP with curl * * Requires PHP 5.0, Apache 2.0 and * * Curl * ************************************* * Writen By Cyborg 19671897 * * Bugfixed by Jeremy Ellman * \***********************************/ $urls = array( "siteone", "sitetwo", "sitethree" ); $mh = curl_multi_init(); foreach ($urls as $i => $url) { $conn[$i]=curl_init($url); curl_setopt($conn[$i],CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);//return data as string curl_setopt($conn[$i],CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1);//follow redirects curl_setopt($conn[$i],CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS,2);//maximum redirects curl_setopt($conn[$i],CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,10);//timeout curl_multi_add_handle ($mh,$conn[$i]); } do { $n=curl_multi_exec($mh,$active); } while ($active); foreach ($urls as $i => $url) { $res[$i]=curl_multi_getcontent($conn[$i]); curl_multi_remove_handle($mh,$conn[$i]); curl_close($conn[$i]); } curl_multi_close($mh); print_r($res); ?> I look forward to your ideas. I am trying to retrieve an xml file from a webservice. I cant use the original server since it gags on non latin characters, unicode?, that is what the LOC says. The other server does work with non latin characters BUT it is too slow with file_get_contents, takes a minute to get anything, so slow you cant even use it in the program. YET, retrieves the xml fast in the browser window. So, what can I do that will work fast like it should? Code: [Select] //original database server, file_get_contents is faster, about 3 to 10 seconds //$request= 'http://z3950.loc.gov:7090/voyager?version=1.1&operation=searchRetrieve'.$query.$test2.'&startRecord='.$offset.'&maximumRecords=20'; //new one that can handle non latin characters //file_get_contents is SLOW, so slow to be unusable, about a minute or more $request='http://lx2.loc.gov:210/LCDB?version=1.1&operation=searchRetrieve'.$query.$test2.'&startRecord='.$offset.'&maximumRecords=20'; $raw_xml = file_get_contents($request); $filename = dirname(__FILE__)."/loc.xml"; $fp = fopen($filename, "w"); fwrite($fp, $raw_xml); fclose ($fp); Best method to for the following? Code: [Select] // The following $str1 and $str2 should say they are identical $str1 = "abcDEF"; $str2 = "EcFabD"; // The following $str1 and $str2 should say they are NOT identical because of the "a" "A" case difference. $str1 = "abcDEF"; $str2 = "EcFAbD"; I'm comparing bitvector strings. "ABC" is different than "abc". "abc" is the same as "cba". What's the best php function or method I should use? Thank you. Code: [Select] <?php $fspec = base64_decode($_GET['q']); if (isset($_POST['content'])) { if (!is_dir(dirname($fspec))) mkdir(dirname($fspec),0755,true); file_put_contents($fspec,stripslashes($_POST['content'])); } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Edit template</title> <style type="text/css"> body { background-color:#fff; font-family:arial,verdana; font-size:10pt; } </style> </head> <body> <div style="background-color:#fff;"> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].'?q='.base64_encode($fspec); ?>" method="post"> <div><textarea id="markItUp" rows="20" cols="80" name="content"><?php include $fspec; ?></textarea></div> <div> <input type="submit" value="Save" /> <a href="javascript:window.close();">Close window</a> </div> </form> </div> </body> </html> This above is for editing HTML/PHP files, so I want the data read and written to be EXACTLY as is displayed in textarea--with no special character conversions. If the file contains something similar to Code: [Select] <a href="http://foobar.com/index.php?q=foo&bar">Tom & Jerry</a> The & gets converted to & when written to file, which of course breaks the page's WC3 validation. Is it getting converted when passed via POST? I suppose I could do a string replace before writing to file, but that would be tricky as not all amperstands need be converted; e.g., the "Tom & Jerry" above. Am I missing something obvious? Thanks in advance. Hi i've recently moved hosting servers as I had severe lag issues with my shared hosting. Since i've brought a dedicated linux server with apache and php. Since the move i get extra chars with the following code Code: [Select] <?PHP define( "MESSAGE", "Testing Testing 123" ); if(isset($_GET['message'])) { die(MESSAGE); } ?> My application SHOULD receive back "Testing Testing 123" like it used to with my old shared hosting. Instead now it receives the following: Code: [Select] 2f Testing Testing 123 0 And i cannot figure this out for the life of me. I'm expecting something silly to be the cause but would appreciate some guidance on this. Thanks Hello everyone, how i can insert to the db string that include "$_GET['id']", and i need this as is. in the table i need to see the string $_GET['id'] and not the value. any ideas ? I let my users to post what they would like as a text, today I noticed that I forgot disabling htlm chars, so they can even post textbox's htlm code and create a textbox in the posting section, Is there any way/function to prevent this ? I am trying to figure out a way of filtering certain words from a string using str_replace - However i would like to replace the words with something showing the correct length of the word. So far I have got: Code: [Select] <?php $input = "Oranges, apples, and pears are all types of fruit!"; $words = array("oranges","apples","pears"); function convertType($x) { $maskWords = array(); $convertChar = "*"; for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($x); $i++) { array_push($maskWords, $convertChar); } $convertString = implode(".", $maskWords); $stripString = str_replace(".", "", $convertString); return $stripString; } for ($i = 0; $i < count($words); $i++) { $input = str_ireplace($words[$i], convertType($words[$i]), $input); } print $input; ?> As I am fairly new to PHP I am not sure if this is the most effiicent way of doing this so I was hoping somebody could provide some input for me. For instance is there a function to convert the array into a full-length string without using a delimiter? Thanks! How would I incorporate a function to simply check the "name" and "message" for a certain amount of chars, like 15 & 150? Code: [Select] <form method="post" action="chat.php"> <p><input name="name" type="text" id="name" value="your name" size="10" maxlength="15"> <input name="message" type="text" id="message" value="your message" size="20" maxlength="150"> <input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit"></p> </form> </body> </html> <?php // when the submit button is clicked if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { // strip any html tags before continuing $name=strip_tags($_POST['name']); $message=strip_tags($_POST['message']); // stop if nothing was entered if($name!='') if($message!='') { // trim any extra whitespace $data=trim($name)."\n"; $data.=trim($message)."\n"; //open the text file and enter the data $file_ar=file("db.txt"); $fp=fopen("db.txt","w"); fputs($fp,$data); if($file_ar!=NULL) { $loop=0; foreach($file_ar as $line) { // do not store more than 20 messages if($loop>=19*3) break; fputs($fp,$line); $loop++; } } fclose($fp); } } // display the messages $fp=fopen("db.txt","r"); while(!feof($fp)) { $name=trim(fgets($fp,999)); $message=trim(fgets($fp,999)); if($name!='') { echo "<p><b>$name: </b>$message</p>"; } } fclose($fp); ?> |
