PHP - I Read The Md5 Sticky But.. Process Confusion Arises
Ok here is what I am a little confused about, dealing with md5 for example
- the md5 of anything generates a 32 character hash - I have a login form that supplies a user and pass to check in the database - user password stored as hash in database, so that protects visual of seeing the database, if it was somehow possible - now on submission I process that form Code: [Select] <?php // some random salt $salt="2bhga6YHJuhyhshabshbnla;"; // user password 10 digits $pass="bLac123Kow" // hash the password $hash=md5($salt.$pass); // query db to compare user and hash $sql=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE user='$user' AND pass='$hash'"); // process result if match login else use ip logging and ban after 5 attempts for 15mins redirect with error Ok my point of confusion is even with the hashing, the task for the hacker is only trying to find a matching or similar original password that generates the same 32 character md5 hash is it not? As every attempt made would use the same process script in my login already applying the salt for them for the comparison in a brute force attack. Lets assume the attacker has already guessed a user name and uses that for all the attempts. I am also aware that I have used a 10 character password which increases the brute force attack time. So no matter how I process the password with hashing, I have to do the same process in my login form processing to compare it to the stored hash or they wont match? Is that how it works or have I got that wrong? I am just looking for the best way to setup a login system, as I have used the above method for quite some time and not really sure if it is effective, and want to understand it better, am I using the md5 setup the best or right way? Similar TutorialsI have a web site with a user login requirement that has worked splendidly for months. I also have a development version of my site on my laptop, localhost. At the moment, I have identical code on both the development and production sites. I'm getting some header error in production, but not on development. Is it guaranteed that my page is generating some white space, or is it possible that there may be another issue at hand (I'm fairly non-technical, so I'm grasping here - my web host upgraded to a different PHP version that is creating whitespace in production while development on my laptop is a different version of php, my web host has done something else that is causing this, fill in the blank with your own conspiracy theory)? Any reading material out there (besides the php.net manual) that explores what may be going on? Thanks in advance - this community has been wonderfully helpful for me over the last year! Hello,
I try to get website speed of some website, but i can read only ''domain.com'' i can't read website files like css , js ... why ? i use proxies for this job.
here is the php code:
$options = array( 'useragent' => "Firefox (+http://www.firefox.org)", // who am i 'connecttimeout' => 120, // timeout on connect 'timeout' => 120, // timeout on response 'redirect' => 10, // stop after 10 redirects 'referer' => "http://www.google.com", 'proxyhost' =>'85.25.8.14:80' ); $response = http_get("http://solve-ict.com/wp-content/themes/ict%20theme/js/jquery-1.7.1.min.js", $options , $info);but it works fine with http://domain.com/ , but with files css or js it gives 404, using some free proxy servers available ? Thanks. Trying to get this done: Page_1 has many external links, when certain links are clicked i do not want user to go directly to page, but rather go to a special add page_2 where user must click a second time on the link to finally get there. The add page_2 must show on screen the name of the initial link from page_1, it must change accordingly with the link it came from page_1,once on page_2 the hyperlink redirects outside the site. So far i am thinking give an id to the div or "<a href..." on page_1 then somehow have page_2 detect that id and fill in the variable for the final external link. Other wise is there a way to detect a url from incoming? I guess a similar example is how some domain name sellers landing page will indicate the name of the site. Such as "Thisdomain.com" is for sale. same landing page but the name changes according to the domain that was typed. I got a question im using izabi for me im one who loves the software. But there some quirks that they forgot to add when making the mail system. I was wondering how it would be possible to code in a peice of php where it says read after someone read the email. If you need a copy of the mail mail script let me know. Why is my First Name text box not "sticky" when my Form reloads due to data validation errors? Here is a snippet... Code: [Select] <!-- First Name --> <li> <label for="firstName"><b>*</b>First Name:</label> <input id="firstName" name="firstName" type="text" maxlength="20" value="<?php if(isset($firstName)){echo htmlspecialchars($firstName, ENT_QUOTES);} ?>" /><!-- Sticky Field --> <?php if (!empty($errors['firstName'])){ echo '<span class="error">' . $errors['firstName'] . '</span>'; } ?> </li> I was certain that this was working before, but who knows?! At the top of the same file if my Form Handling PHP code. Here is a snippet... // ************************************************************* // HANDLE FORM. * // ************************************************************* if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=='POST'){ // Form was Submitted (Post). // Initialize Variables. $_SESSION['resultsCode'] = ''; $errors = array(); // Trim all Form data. $trimmed = array_map('trim', $_POST); // Connect to the database. require_once(WEB_ROOT . 'private/mysqli_connect.php'); // ************************ // Validate Form Data. * // ************************ // Validate First Name. if (empty($trimmed['firstName'])){ $errors['firstName'] = 'Please enter your First Name.'; }else{ if (preg_match('#^[A-Z \'.-]{2,20}$#i', $trimmed['firstName'])){ $firstName = $trimmed['firstName']; }else{ $errors['firstName'] = 'First Name must be 2-20 characters (A-Z \' . -)'; } } Thanks, Debbie $sql = "INSERT INTO entries(title, entry) VALUES (?, ?)"; $stmt = $db->prepare($sql); $stmt-> execute(array($title, $entry)); $stmt->closeCursor(); I'm confused but i think i gotta just stop the self doubt -> i'm confused about what these code does ok i know the insert statement $stmt = $db->prepare($sql) = i'm guessing this prepares the $sql variable and prepares it for execution and stores the (?, ?) as an array with ($title, $entry) keys. am i right ? ok so this code here is working find in regards to fetching the users name and ID number however it's just putting them in any order I want the first user to be user 1 and then 2 then so forth? would a simple for loop do this if so before or after my while loop? or would I even need a while loop? I am trying to implement a sticky footer on my site, but I cannot get it to work. I've done it on about 5 sites prior to this, but this one is just not working.
The footer sticks to the bottom of the window, not the bottom of the document. I need it to be the bottom of the document.

I could use some a push in the right direction thanks. I have a form where users can send comments. The form sends the comments to me via e-mail. Why is the e-mail field not staying "sticky" after I click "Submit" yet the other fields are?? Code: [Select] <form id="comments" action="" method="post"> <ul> <!-- Sender's Email --> <li> <label for="senderEmail">Your E-mail:</label> <input id="senderEmail" name="senderEmail" class="text" type="text" maxlength="40" value="<?php if(isset($senderEmail)){echo htmlspecialchars($senderEmail, ENT_QUOTES);} ?>" /><!-- Sticky Field --> <?php if (!empty($errors['senderEmail'])){ echo '<span class="error">' . $errors['senderEmail'] .

I'm trying to loop through all the arrays in the main array but only pull out one of the values. What I have right now is: echo "<ol>"; for ($rw = 0; $rw < sizeof($serenwilde); $rw++) { echo "<li><b>The row number $rw</b>"; echo "<ul>"; for ($col = 0; $col < 5; $col++) { if (isset($serenwilde[$rw][$col])) { echo "<li>".$serenwilde[$rw][$col]."</li>"; } } echo "</ul>"; echo "</li>"; } echo "</ol>"; Which produces: Quote The row number 0 value0 value1 value2 value3 value4 How can I modify my code so I still loop through all the arrays, but only pull out say value0 from each of them? Thanks again. Ok I have this form with 6 fields that the user enters a geocaching code. In the database I have a table called cacheinfo. There are 6 enteries in the database in this table. Now Im trying to confirm that each field entered matches the right geo code. I have it working but I feel that its a very bad way of doing it my way. can someone please show me a better way as I have other situations I do something simliar and its just getting silly. Here is the code; if(isset($_POST['nextbtn'])){ $cache1 = trim($_POST['cache1']); $cache2 = trim($_POST['cache2']); $cache3 = trim($_POST['cache3']); $cache4 = trim($_POST['cache4']); $cache5 = trim($_POST['cache5']); $cache6 = trim($_POST['cache6']); $cache1 = mysql_real_escape_string($cache1); $cache2 = mysql_real_escape_string($cache2); $cache3 = mysql_real_escape_string($cache3); $cache4 = mysql_real_escape_string($cache4); $cache5 = mysql_real_escape_string($cache5); $cache6 = mysql_real_escape_string($cache6); $FetchCache = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cacheInfo WHERE cacheInfoID='1'") or die('can not find cache information'); $cache1 = mysql_fetch_array($FetchCache); if($cache1 !==$cache1['cacheCode']){ $url = "/register-cache.php?error=true"; header("Location: $url"); } $FetchCache = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cacheInfo WHERE cacheInfoID='2'") or die('can not find cache information'); $cache2 = mysql_fetch_array($FetchCache); if($cache2 !==$cache2['cacheCode']){ $url = "/register-cache.php?error=true"; header("Location: $url"); } $FetchCache = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cacheInfo WHERE cacheInfoID='3'") or die('can not find cache information'); $cache3 = mysql_fetch_array($FetchCache); if($cache3 !==$cache3['cacheCode']){ $url = "/register-cache.php?error=true"; header("Location: $url"); } $FetchCache = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cacheInfo WHERE cacheInfoID='4'") or die('can not find cache information'); $cache4 = mysql_fetch_array($FetchCache); if($cache4 !==$cache4['cacheCode']){ $url = "/register-cache.php?error=true"; header("Location: $url"); } $FetchCache = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cacheInfo WHERE cacheInfoID='5'") or die('can not find cache information'); $cache5 = mysql_fetch_array($FetchCache); if($cache5 !==$cache5['cacheCode']){ $url = "/register-cache.php?error=true"; header("Location: $url"); } $FetchCache = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cacheInfo WHERE cacheInfoID='6'") or die('can not find cache information'); $cache6 = mysql_fetch_array($FetchCache); if($cache6 !==$cache6['cacheCode']){ $url = "/register-cache.php?error=true"; header("Location: $url"); } // If all match now run the rest of my code...... } I am very confused at an example in a book I am reading called Beggining PHP regarding XML-RPC requests. I will write the code below: function send($remoteServer, $remotePort, $fullXMLRPCRequest) { $headers = ''; $data = ''; $socket = fsockopen($remoteServer, $remotePort); fwrite($socket, $fullXMLRPCRequest); while ($str = trim(fgets($socket))) { // why doesn't this exhaust the returned call?? $headers .= $str . "\n"; } while (!feof($socket)) { $data .= fgets($socket); } fclose($socket); return $data; } The question I have is notice how there are two while statements and they both access the same resource ($socket). So how can there be two while statements?? Wouldn't the first while statement exhaust the resource and there would be nothing on the second while statement? I hope this makes sense. It's sort of like saying while(x < 10) { //execute... ++x; } then another while statement while(x < 10) { //execute... ++x; } Well then wouldn't the second while statement not execute? I hope I made sense. Thanks for all the help in advance. Obviously knowing XML-RPC would help in answering this question, hopefully most of you are familiar with it. I'm sure this is something simple that I'm just overlooking right now, but it's got me very frustrated and I just want a quick fix... I have 2 arrays, $data_old and $totals_old Let's say each looks like this (with the 123456 being different for both): Array ( [2014] => Array ( [123456] => Array ( [EMPS] => 114350 ) ) )When I merge the two, I get something like this: Array ( [2014] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [123456] => Array ( [EMPS] => 114350 ) ) [1] => Array ( [60] => Array ( [EMPS] => 1470 ) ) ) )How can I avoid the [0] and [1] and just have those be [123456] and [60], without referencing the 123456 and 60? I think i have muddled myself up here somewhere along the line I am trying to check to see if various things already exists in a database. So for example i have a collumn with names, second collumn is email address, third collumn phone number etc. So i make the usual connection to the database: $sql=("SELECT * FROM table") $result = mysql_query($sql); $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); Now to assign the various collumns is where i have come unstuck. if (in_array("?", $row)) {do something} or is it if (in_array("?", $row['name'])) {do something} ? I have it working by hard coding to a seperate php file, but its bulky and would prefer to use the database. Hi, I'm trying to make an area where people can post stuff, status updates etc... I have a small layout done, but something has confused me. I'm trying to get it so when somebody is logged in, and posts something in the chat area, it displays: [Name] [Comment] I know how to read from the database, but for some reason, when I press the 'submit' button, the text in the 'comment' box isn't inserting into my 'comment' column in my database... But I want it so it inserts in the users column. Is this possible? Code: [Select] <?php if($submit) { $comment = $_POST['comment']; $submit = $_POST['submit']; $connect = mysql_connect("****","****","****") or die("Could not connect to database."); mysql_select_db("****") or die ("Could not find database!"); $query("INSERT INTO login ('comment') VALUES('$comment')"); $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <form method="POST"> Comment: <input type="text" name="comment" /><br /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /><br /> </form> </body> </html> why does Code: [Select] while($random_user_TOTAL_COUNT <= 15 && $random_user_INFO = $random_user_USERS->fetch_object()){ work, but Code: [Select] while($random_user_INFO = $random_user_USERS->fetch_object() && $random_user_TOTAL_COUNT <= 15){ doesn't. why??? I have a full working order form in PHP. I process it and display it with a process page called "process.php." Whenever this information is displayed on the web page "process.php" I also want it to send me an e-mail with all of the information that it just processed. i.e. Checked checkboxes, text entered, etc. Whenever I try to send the contents of "process.php" to an email $message = include 'process.php'; the process page just goes through an infinite loop displaying itself over and over again instead of sending itself in an email.
