PHP - Utf8 Mail Problem
Similar TutorialsHello to all out there! this is my first post,so my question may sound a bit simple. :] I am studying PHP and MySQL and I tried to make a mailing form based on a mysql database. My problem occured when I tried to use the PEAR mail object. Here is my code: // THE INCLUDED FILES require_once ("attach_file.php" ); require_once ("Mail.php" ); require_once ("Mail\mime.php" ); //THE VARIABLES TAKEN FROM THE HTML FORM OR JUST CREATED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE EMAIL $my_email = "something@gmail.com"; $email_subject = mysql_real_escape_string(trim( $_POST['email_subject']),$server_connect ); $email_body = mysql_real_escape_string(trim( $_POST['email_body'] ),$server_connect ); $attached_file = $destination ; // the $destination variable comes from the copy() function in attach_file.php $username = "the_username@gmail.com"; $password = "the_password"; $host = "smtp.gmail.com"; $attach = new Mail_mime(); $attach -> addAttachment($attached_file); $email_body = $attach->get(); $extraheaders = array('from'=>$my_email,'to'=>$email_etaireias,'subject'=>$email_subject,'Bcc'=>$email_etaireias); $headers = $attach -> $headers($extraheaders); // HERE GIVES ME AN ERROR!!! -->Fatal error: Method name must be a string $smtp_info = array('host'=>$host,'auth'=>TRUE,'username'=>$username,'password'=>$password); $smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',$smtp_info); //loop through every single line of the database until there are no more lines with data //and store each line in 3 different variables that i can use while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { $onoma_etaireias = $row['onoma_etaireias']; $email_etaireias = $row['email_etaireias']; $website_etaireias = $row['website_etaireias']; } //construct the mail function . The @ is supressing the errors created .remove it and they will be shown. $mail = @$smtp->send($email_etaireias,$headers,$email_body); As i searched here and there for a solution, i found that it has something to do with the way the mail-mime object creates the body of the email . I also tried to find a solution from the PEAR documentation. do i create the headers someway wrong????? I have a notification system that notifies users of new comments, inside the email I have images, some of the logo, some of different people, everything shows up fine on my computer (yahoo email), however in the iPhones email application no images show up, there are just the blue squares with the question marks in them. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Code: [Select] $from = "Kithell <notifications@kithell.com>"; $headers = "From:" . $from ."\r\n"; $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; $subject = name($from_id, 'fl').$action; $message = '<html><body> <style>@charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ .e-container { background-color: #FFF;position: relative;width: 90%;min-height:1px;margin-right: auto;margin-left: auto; } .e-container .e-m-header { padding: 2px; background-image: url(http://www.kithell.com/assets/tall-grey-header.png); background-repeat: repeat-x; border: 1px solid #CCC; background-position: bottom; display: block; text-align: center; } .e-container p { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; color: #666; vertical-align: text-top; display: inline-block; } .e-container .e-usr-photo { display: inline-block; margin: 10px; float: left; background-color: #F4F4F4; } .e-container p a { font-weight: bold; color: #3F60A3; text-decoration: underline; padding: 0px; float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 5px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; } .e-container .e-quotes { font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #999; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif; display: block; padding: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 75px; margin-top:10px; } .e-container .e-message { font-size: 13px; color: #333; padding: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 10px; clear: none; display: inline; }</style> <div class="e-container"><div class="e-m-header"><img src="http://www.kithell.com/assets/kithell-logo.png" /></div><img class="e-usr-photo" src="http://www.kithell.com/'.photo($from_id, 55).'" /><br /><p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.kithell.com/#/profile&id='.$from_id.'">'.name($from_id, "fl").' </a> '.$action.'<div class="e-quotes">"<p class="e-message">'.nl2br(htmlentities(stripslashes($message))).'</p>"</div></p></div></body></html>'; mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); This topic has been moved to Other Web Server Software. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=347009.0 Hi, I am trying to update the database with the arabic characters using utf8, when am trying with firefox no problem in updating also i check with database values are in utf8 format. But at the same time working with IE, values are not updating as utf8 format. Looking for answer confused..hope.. Thanks hello i have problem with reading utf-8 text from normal text file with utf8 encoding. I am bulgarian i want to read and write bulgarian text but i cant. $fh = fopen("pics/names.txt", 'r'); $theData = fread($fh, 5); fclose($fh); echo $theData; This is what i use. Iam with windows 7. Pls help me... Im using this code Code: [Select] //create message with token gained before $post = array( 'access_token' => $access_token, 'message' => html_entity_decode($description, ENT_QUOTES), 'name' => html_entity_decode(strip_tags($post_title, ENT_QUOTES)), 'caption' => html_entity_decode(strip_tags($post_title, ENT_QUOTES)), 'link' => $_SESSION['blog_base'].'article/'.$post_url.'/', 'description' => html_entity_decode($description, ENT_QUOTES), 'picture' => 'http://www.socialnewsoffice.com/uploads/'.$article_img); to publish information to facebook however when i publish this i get this Code: [Select] Leasing receive another Great Testimonial from�Steve Brennan at�MCM Insurance Group\r\nTo whom it may concern\r\nEarlier this year we to... any ideas? Hello, Hi everybody !
Am back with the never ending security issues, just that this time it has to do with the character set related security issues. I read the whole day on utf-8 and am still lost on certain aspects related to PHP security.
Consider the simple script below:
<?php
//error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
session_start();
if(isset($_POST['login'], $_POST['password']))
{
$login = $_POST['login'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
if(!empty($login) && !empty($password))
{
//echo "Ok";
echo "Welcome ". $login;
echo "<br> You password is.$password ";
}
}
?>
<html>
<body>
<form action="welcome2.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="login" />
Password: <input type="password" name="password" />
<input type="submit" name="submit"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
It is not a login script, but assuming that it was one, I would like to know that if UTF-8 was the charset that was selected for this script, then :
1. how could it be exploited to pass a string that would effectively break thorugh this login. It would be great if someone can demonstrate the hack using the above script example.
2. Could the same be thwarted by the use of input filters?
3. I also read that the use of a regex to limit the use of special characters in passwords is not good . So in case the hack can be thwarted by the use of regex and that is a bad idea in the first place what should be done?
There are a few more questions that are on my mind but I would only ask those once I am clear on these that I have just asked.
Thanks all.
I am using a regex with /iumsU modifiers. On some servers this crashes PHP and I need to turn UTF8 off thus the modifier becoming /imsU I am wondering how can I detect the requirements for /u to work normally so I can dynamically adjust my regex? Cheers Hello, I've got a huge database that is filled with text. It is encoded in UTF8 and some of the symbols used (like emoticons) are encoded in the private use area of UTF8 (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/block/private_use_area/utf8test.htm). Now I want to replace those codes of the private use area with the corresponding smilies etcetera. So actually my question is, how do I replace specific UTF8 codes with something else in PHP? Thanks in advance! In attachment is the code I generated from Flex Builder: My issue is that the UTF8 (coding of the MySQL database) isn't correctly interpreted, the solution is to use : $stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection, "SET NAMES UTF8;"); But I don't know how to enter it in this syntax? It is I think the: $stmt = mysqli_prepare($this->connection, "SELECT * from $this->tablename"); that has to be modified, but how? Really searching a long time on the correct syntax, but without any result... Please help, thanks a lot Wimmerke I am trying to get the PHP mail function to work. I am using a WAMP server and php.ini is set to: [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP = localhost smtp_port = 25 ; For Win32 only. ;sendmail_from = ; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i"). ;sendmail_path = ; Force the addition of the specified parameters to be passed as extra parameters ; to the sendmail binary. These parameters will always replace the value of ; the 5th parameter to mail(), even in safe mode. ;mail.force_extra_parameters = My PHP script looks like this: <php? $to = "djbouch@comcast.net"; $subject = "Test mail"; $message = "Hello! This is a simple email message."; $from = "djbouch@comcast.net"; $headers = "From:" . $from; mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); echo "Mail Sent."; ?> For some reason the mail won't send and I am getting the following message: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() Thanks for your help with this. Daniel I have this code in borrow.php Whenever they click the button 'sendMail' an email is sent to that user who tries to borrow that specific book (the book details are left out cuz we don't need them here) Code: [Select] <?php global $interface; global $user; if (isset($_POST['sendMail'])){ $to = $partner->email; $subject = "ILB Request"; if(!isset($user->id)){ $lastname = $_POST['lastname']; $firstname = $_POST['firstname']; $email = $_POST['email']; $telephone = $_POST['telephone']; $fax = $_POST['fax']; }else{ $lastname = $user->lastname; $firstname = $user->firstname; $email = $user->email; $telephone = $user->telephone; $fax = $user->fax; } $message = " <html> <body> <h2>Loaner Details</h2> <table> <tr> <td>Name: </td> <td>" . $lastname . "</td> </tr> <tr> <td>First Name: </td> <td>" . $firstname . "</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Email: </td> <td>" . $email . "</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Telephone: </td> <td>" . $telephone . "</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Fax: </td> <td>" . $fax . "</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> "; // Always set content-type when sending HTML email $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" . "\r\n"; // More headers if(!isset($user->id)){ $headers .= 'From: <' . $_POST['email'] . '>' . "\r\n"; }else{ $headers .= 'From: <' . $user->email . '>' . "\r\n"; } if(!empty($email)){ if(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers)){ $interface->assign('success', "Your IBL request has been sent succesfully!"); }else{ $interface->assign('success', "Your IBL request has failed!"); } }else{ $interface->assign('success', "Email address has to be filled in!"); } } And then there is this code in Edit.php: Whenever a person changes someone elses profile (like an admin), the person whos profile is being changed needs to be notified by email. It's the same function as before though it gives this error: "Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\vufind\web\services\MyResearch\Edit.php on line 182" But the php.ini file hasn't been changed, and it doesn't give error the the previous code above (+ I receive the email) So I add to the file below: Code: [Select] <?php ini_set("SMTP","mySMTPserver."); ini_set("smtp_port","25"); ?> and now i get this msg... "Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 503 5.5.2 Need Rcpt command." Code: [Select] <?php global $interface; global $user; if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { if(isset($_GET['userID'])){ $updateUser = new User(); if($user->id != $_GET['userID']){ $to = $updateUser->email; $subject = "Profile has been changed by " . $user->firstname . " " . $user->lastname; $message = " <html> <body> <h2>Notification</h2> <br /><br /> Hi, <br /><br /> This is an email notification you receive when your profile has been changed! </body> </html>"; // Always set content-type when sending HTML email $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" . "\r\n"; // More headers $headers .= 'From: admin@felnet.be' . "\r\n"; echo $to . " " . $subject . " " . $message . " " . $headers; if(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers)){ $interface->assign('sent', "Success!"); }else{ $interface->assign('sent', "Fail!"); } } I really need help with this I have a php script that queries the database and then sends a separate email but I was just recently told they would like each query to to be put in an email so we only send one like the way i made it below (sorry if it's sloppy) if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.

Hello! Dear all, I'm having this problem with PHP Mail From Name, it took me entire day, and still haven't figure out the issue...that is... In "From: ", if I have it in simple email format, such as "From: name@server.com" it works...but when I have it with a From Name, eg. "From: Name <name@server.com>", then it just wouldn't send... I heard that some of the servers just won't parse "Name <name@server.com>", if it is the case...would there be any work around to get that From Name appeared?
