PHP - Handling User Addresses??

goodguybadguy.net

they can tell when you enter an email address that hasnt been registered yet. how the hell are they doing this? does gmail or  yahoo have some sort of database they allow access to for this?

So, to keep this as short as possible, I am almost done making a website that lets visitors send already-made text messages to people. I just paid for hosting for the site, and they told me that I can only send 100 messages in one hour. This is fine as I was already intending on setting limits per ip address.

So, I've set up MySQL and everything else works correctly. My only problem is that on the test script I've been working on over the weekend doesn't successfully check to see if an ip address exists in the database.

Let me try and better explain what I need to do:
I need the visitor's ip address to be logged on to the database the first time that they send a message in a day. (This part works.)

But before it logs their ip address, it needs to check to see if it was already logged for the day. If their ip IS there then it will check to see how many messages they've sent today, if it is less than 5 then it will let them send the message and add 1 to the log. Otherwise it won't let them send the message.


Tell me if it sounds too complicated.

I'm trying to make a script that will search the source code of a given url and strip every email address that pops up.

I already have a script that will crawl around, jumping from webpage to webpage... i just need to figure out how to strip the contents... any suggestions?

Hi Everyone,

Very new to PHP and databases, so please go easy on me!

I have a series on web pages each containing a link that says 'apply here'. What I am trying to achieve is when any of these links are clicked on the user is taken to a php form page where they are asked for a series of further information such as name, telephone number etc. When they click submit this information then gets sent off to a speciifc email address.

My problem is that depending on which page the user has originally come from (the page where they clicked on the apply here link) needs to determine what email address the form information gets sent to.

I thought that the best way to achieve this would be to create a database that contains all of the email addresses (as eventually there will be alot of them) and the form page could call in the relevant email somehow... although I am totally confused on how to go about doing this.

Any help would be great! Thankyou.

Hey guys

Whats the best way to take all the email addresses from a MySQL database of contact information and turn it into an array which i can use in the To: Section of sending an email in php?

Thanks.

If I have a string like this:
Code: [Select]
Anne Somebody <anne@email.com>, John Smith <john@hotmail.co.uk>, bob Someoneelse <bob@email.it>is there a simple way of extracting the emails? I can do the explode and trim so I am really asking how to handle the
Code: [Select]
John Smith <john@hotmail.co.uk> in a reliable way. To be left with john@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks,

has anyone here ever seen these 2 sites?

IP DENY
https://www.ipdeny.com/

TOR EXIT NODES
https://check.torproject.org/torbulkexitlist

with regard to the former, the domain has one page per country I believe. so, you can get listings for like say, China and Russia on these 2 pages:

China: https://www.ipdeny.com/ipblocks/data/countries/cn.zone

Russia: https://www.ipdeny.com/ipblocks/data/countries/ru.zone

my question to folks here is, would this information be useful to me? I am putting together some website content that I do not want everyone in the world to see. And, it is possible that by some miracle, the sophisticated hacker world outside the USA will want to take it down and/or disrupt the service offerings of it if they find out that it exists. Anyone got any advice on whether these resources are even worth the effort to use? and if they are, what is the best way to leverage them? e.g. - when pulling info from the server DB to display content on the page, check this IP data first to see who they are and whether I will allow them or block them?

thanks.

@requinix, I know we've talked about blocking illegitimate traffic before.  and I know you said I can't ever get rid of all of it.  but this is new info that I've run across.  Just wondering what you guys think of this.  =)

I have a list of IP addresses in an very very very large array in random order.

I am trying to find a way to determine if there are at least 8 IP addresses that are consecutive. I was thinking some sort of for loop after a sort but that seems very time consuming and I'm sure PHP has a better way...

Some searching online revealed this: http://bytes.com/topic/php/answers/12143-flagging-consecutive-numbers-data-set  Is this the way to go?

Any tips?

Thanks!
Carmen

This topic has been moved to PHP Regex.

I have recently created a small snippet of php code for posting mail and it's sweet apart from 1 thing.

I have two email addresses in the recipient section. It only sends to the last name in the list.

Is this because i have written recipient? Should it be recipients?

I need this mail to be delivered to both of the email addresses.

I'm sure it's simple for someone with expert knowledge.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I have no idea what im doing wrong but this just isnt working, theres no error messages but im not getting any of the emails. Here is all the code that i had anything to do with editing, i have removed any personal info from it.

Hi, I got this script which I would like to send a message to all email addresses in the database or send to approved members only. Once I got the first part of this script working I can get the rest to work when sending to approved members.

Here is the form which passes the message to the script.

Code: [Select]
<?php 

include_once("data/server.php");

$all = 'unchecked';
$approved = 'unchecked';


if (isset($_POST['Submit1'])) {

$selected_radio = $_POST['Mailto'];

if ($selected_radio == 'all') {
$all = 'checked';

}
else if ($selected_radio == 'approved') {
$approved = 'checked';
}
}

?>

Hi there everyone!

I'm trying my best to Google my way through this issue, but have run into an issue I can't out-Google. I'm trying to write a script that is receiving an email, breaking it apart into it's various components and then storing into a database. I would like to sto

from name
from email
to name
to email
subject
headers
body

Here's what I've cobbled together from various tutorials and demo's:

$fd = fopen("php://stdin", "r");
$email_content = "";
while (!feof($fd)) {
    $email_content .= fread($fd, 1024);
}
fclose($fd);

//split the string into array of strings, each of the string represents a single line, received
$lines = explode("\n", $email_content);
 
// initialize variable which will assigned later on
$from = "";
$subject = "";
$headers = "";
$message = "";
$is_header= true;
 
//loop through each line
for ($i=0; $i < count($lines); $i++) {
    if ($is_header) {
        // hear information. instead of main message body, all other information are here.
        $headers .= $lines[$i]."\n";
 
        // Split out the To portion
        if (preg_match("/^To: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {
            $to = $matches[1];
        }
        $toregexp = '/To:\s*(([^\<]*?) <)?<?(.+?)>?\s*\n/i';
        if(preg_match($toregexp, $email_content, $to_dissection)) {
            $toname = $to_dissection[2];
            $toemail = $to_dissection[3];
        }
        // Split out the subject portion
        if (preg_match("/^Subject: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {
            $subject = $matches[1];
        }
        //Split out the sender information portion
        if (preg_match("/^From: (.*)/", $lines[$i], $matches)) {
            $from = $matches[1];
        }
        $fromregexp = '/From:\s*(([^\<]*?) <)?<?(.+?)>?\s*\n/i';
        if(preg_match($fromregexp, $email_content, $from_dissection)) {
            $fromname = $from_dissection[2];
            $fromemail = $from_dissection[3];
        }
    } else {
        // content/main message body information
        $message .= $lines[$i]."\n";
    }
    if (trim($lines[$i])=="") {
        // empty line, header section has ended
        $is_header = false;
    }
}

My issues are many. I've got from and to names that don't reflect the true data,
the from address will be the original sender and not the most recent sender if
it's forwarded and finally, the body is showing up empty. Clearly, I'm not handling this properly. With all the trouble-ticket like systems out there, there has to be a fairly bulletproof method of handling this, doesn't there?  I'm thinking I've gone about this totally the wrong way.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Hello, any help would be greatly appreciated. I have two dropdowns with 2 options in each. Customer picks one option from each dropdown and the form gets emailed to addresses from the two selections. The code below gives and error.

My form:
<form method="POST" action="quote.php" onsubmit="return checkform(this)">
<input type="hidden" name="agent" value="recipient_1,recipient_2">
<input type="hidden" name="office" value="recipient_3,recipient_4">
<select name="agent" id="agent">
<option value="recipient_1">Agent1 </option>
<option value="recipient_2">Agent2 </option>
</select>
<select name="office" id="office">
<option value="recipient_3">Location1  </option>
<option value="recipient_4">Location2 </option>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

quote.php is below:
$recipients = array(

'recipient_1' => 'email_1@yahoo.com',
'recipient_2' => 'email_2@yahoo.com',
'recipient_3' => 'email_3@yahoo.com',
'recipient_4' => 'email_4@yahoo.com',
);
$exploded_recipients = explode(",",$_REQUEST['agent']);
foreach($exploded_recipients as $value)
{
$my_email = $recipients[$value];
$success = mail($my_email, $Subject, $Body, "From: <$EmailFrom>");
}


Thanks in advance

I need a map which locates all the stores addresses(Less than 10). Those address must be retreived from the database. But the database don't contain any lat or long field. Therefore geocoding an address into their corresponding lat and long coordinates must be done and appropriate markers must be placed. The code which I have at the moment is as follows:-

<?php
require_once '../model/stores.php';
$obj=new Stores();
$result=$obj->getStores();
$new_array = array();

while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
$new_array[] = $row['stores_address']; 
}
$add_js = json_encode( $new_array );
?>

<html>
<head>
<style>
#map_canvas {
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
}
</style>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
var map;
var elevator;
var myOptions = {
zoom: 1,
center: new google.maps.LatLng(0, 0),
mapTypeId: 'terrain'
};
map = new google.maps.Map($('#map_canvas')[0], myOptions);

//var addresses = ['Norway', 'Africa', 'Asia','North America','South America'];
var addresses = <?php echo $add_js ?>;;

for (var x = 0; x < addresses.length; x++) {
$.getJSON('http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json? address=' +addresses[x]+'&sensor=false', null, function (data) {
var p = data.results[0].geometry.location
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(p.lat, p.lng);
new google.maps.Marker({
position: latlng,
map: map
});
});
}

});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="map_canvas"></div>
</body>
</html>

I have looked on various forums and other web resources but no use as none of them worked out for me...Hope any genius would help me to solve the problem.
