PHP - Can't Open Local .php Files
Hey all, this is my first post ever and am not really sure if this is the right place for it or not, sorry in advance if it isn't. I'm new to PHP and trying to learn. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and Firefox 3.6.22. I have libapache2-mod-php5 installed and running, but for some reason everytime I try to open a local .php file in firefox the download manager pops up and ask me what I want to do with the file. Has anyone else encountered this before? Is it something simple that I overlooked? Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to include a link on this page to open oowriter (open office writer) for the end user on the machine. I've tried Code: [Select] exec('oowriter'); with no luck. I've also tried setting the DISPLAY value before the command like Code: [Select] exec('DISPLAY=:0 oowriter'); with no success. I don't mind have the www-data user in the sudoers file if I have to sudo the command or something, but is this possible to do?? I'm not having any luck at all! I wrote this script to rename my many tv series I have on my pc, works by finding a string in the file name and replacing it
the script works fine until I want to replace the file name with something that is also in the path
file = band ep01.avi
path = j:\media\ TV shows\Band of Brothers\
so if I try to change "Band" to "Band of Brothers" the path changes as well
is there a way I can change the code so it dosent effect the path ??
<?php $path = 'J:\media\TV shows\Band of Brothers'; foreach(glob($path.'/*.*') as $filename){ echo $filename."</BR>"; } ?> <table align="center" width="200px" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3"> <form name="form1" method="get" action="mov.php"> <tr> <td colspan="3"><strong> </strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="71">Replace</td> <td width="6">:</td> <td width="301"><input name="rep" type="text" id="rep"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>With</td> <td>:</td> <td><input name="with" type="text" id="with"></td> </tr> <tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" align="center"><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"></td> </tr></form> </table> <?php if (isset($_GET["rep"])) { $rep1=$_GET['rep']; } if (isset($_GET["with"])) { $with1=$_GET['with']; } foreach(glob($path.'/*.*') as $filename){ $strip = str_replace($rep1, $with1, $filename); echo $strip."</br>"; rename($filename,$strip); } ?> Is it possible to read from a file that is located on the user's local machine and not on the server? I have a CSV file that is about 70MB that I have to parse through and insert the data into a database. I have no problem doing this if I hard code the path to the file. Is there a way to get the path of the file that the user wants to be parsed into the database? I don't think uploading the file would be a good idea because, like I said, it is 70MB and is nearly 2 million lines. Simply parsing the file takes long enough without throwing in upload time.. Hi. I have php code that attempts to read a file into a string using get_file_contents(), but it claims the file does not exist. I do the same thing in another php file (same directory) and it works. Only difference is that the first file has the call in a function. File one: Code: [Select] $email_template = "../email_templates/new_instructor.html"; echo file_exists($email_template); $message = file_get_contents($email_template);//get the email template File two: Code: [Select] $email_template = "../email_templates/new_instructor.html"; echo file_exists($email_template); echo file_get_contents($email_file); please help.' thanx Hi, ive recently created a gallery website and im happy with the way everything currently works. However the main drawback is the site uploads using a html webfom which is great for remote users or the odd image. However, as i want to mass upload my existing collection i will need the ability to read a selected folder and then to carry out all the same processes that existed from the existing html form upload. Im also using gdlibrary and checking file types to ensure they are within my allowed list, but im wondering if there are any other common security alerts i should be aware of to keep things a little bit safer if/when i publish outside of my LAN. So in a nut shell i need some assistance with changing my upload process to work for more than one file at a time, ideally by reading a folder, or at least reading X amount of files at a time - processing them then moving onto next batch of files in the list. Then the next part i need help with is checking/improving basic security of the system Hi there, Can anybody help me to write php/javascript code which will allow users to open files directly from web browser into desktop application? Here is the specification: I have a photo editing business with many people working in Photoshop. I am currently developing a web based application (joblist) using Javascript and PHP which should allow the photoshop designers to browse and open files/images directly from joblist/web browser into photoshop. The reason I want this instead of browsing folder is that I have a database where I store who worked on which file, when and how long it took. The concept is that, designers will select a file and click on start, as soon as they click on start the original file will open in Photoshop and there will be an entry into database (using PHP). Once they finish the task they will close the file and click on Finish button. My joblist application will be published in a local server and the file will be open on a local network, so when they save the file it will be saved where the source file is located in (local server). The application should work in both PC and Mac. I have already done all other part of the application except file opening directly from browser to desktop application functionality. Anybody can help me to write the code (PHP or Javascript) which can open the file from browser (local server) directly into desktop application e.g. PHotoshop or Illustrator? Thank you very much I look forward to someone's real help! Best regards Mr. Sumon hello, I have implemented a snippet that reads images in I create folders dynamically from admin and makes them see lightbox style .. the same works fine but it shows all images in all folders and not those relating to folder clicked ..

I need to add the FTP connection with user/pass paramaters. then look in set http url, to get the file contents(images) and transfer to ftp server location. Can Anyone take alook and tell me if I am going down the right path and how to get there.

So far I have managed to create an upload process which uploads a picture, updates the database on file location and then tries to upload the db a 2nd time to update the Thumbnails file location (i tried updating the thumbnails location in one go and for some reason this causes failure) But the main problem is that it doesn't upload some files Here is my upload.php <?php include 'dbconnect.php'; $statusMsg = ''; $Title = $conn -> real_escape_string($_POST['Title']) ; $BodyText = $conn -> real_escape_string($_POST['ThreadBody']) ; // File upload path $targetDir = "upload/"; $fileName = basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]); $targetFilePath = $targetDir . $fileName; $fileType = pathinfo($targetFilePath,PATHINFO_EXTENSION); $Thumbnail = "upload/Thumbnails/'$fileName'"; if(isset($_POST["submit"]) && !empty($_FILES["file"]["name"])){ // Allow certain file formats $allowTypes = array('jpg','png','jpeg','gif','pdf', "webm", "mp4"); if(in_array($fileType, $allowTypes)){ // Upload file to server if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath)){ // Insert image file name into database $insert = $conn->query("INSERT into Threads (Title, ThreadBody, filename) VALUES ('$Title', '$BodyText', '$fileName')"); if($insert){ $statusMsg = "The file ".$fileName. " has been uploaded successfully."; $targetFilePathArg = escapeshellarg($targetFilePath); $output=null; $retval=null; //exec("convert $targetFilePathArg -resize 300x200 ./upload/Thumbnails/'$fileName'", $output, $retval); exec("convert $targetFilePathArg -resize 200x200 $Thumbnail", $output, $retval); echo "REturned with status $retval and output:\n" ; if ($retval == null) { echo "Retval is null\n" ; echo "Thumbnail equals $Thumbnail\n" ; } }else{ $statusMsg = "File upload failed, please try again."; } }else{ $statusMsg = "Sorry, there was an error uploading your file."; } }else{ $statusMsg = 'Sorry, only JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, mp4, webm & PDF files are allowed to upload.'; } }else{ $statusMsg = 'Please select a file to upload.'; } //Update SQL db by setting the thumbnail column to equal $Thumbnail $update = $conn->query("update Threads set thumbnail = '$Thumbnail' where filename = '$fileName'"); if($update){ $statusMsg = "Updated the thumbnail to sql correctly."; echo $statusMsg ; } else { echo "\n Failed to update Thumbnail. Thumbnail equals $Thumbnail" ; } // Display status message echo $statusMsg; ?> And this does work on most files however it is not working on a 9.9mb png fileĀ which is named "test.png" I tested on another 3.3 mb gif file and that failed too? For some reason it returns the following Updated the thumbnail to sql correctly.Updated the thumbnail to sql correctly. Whereas on the files it works on it returns REturned with status 0 and output: Retval is null Thumbnail equals upload/Thumbnails/'rainbow-trh-stache.gif' Failed to update Thumbnail. Thumbnail equals upload/Thumbnails/'rainbow-trh-stache.gif'The file rainbow-trh-stache.gif has been uploaded successfully. Any idea on why this is? Hello I have a simple question about file handling... Is it possible to list all files in directories / subdirectories, and then read ALL files in those dirs, and put the content of their file into an array? Like this: array: [SomePath/test.php] = "All In this php file is being read by a new smart function!"; [SomePath/Weird/hello.txt = "Hello world. This is me and im just trying to get some help!";and so on, until no further files exists in that rootdir. All my attempts went totally crazy and none of them works... therefore i need to ask you for help. Do you have any ideas how to do this? If so, how can I be able to do it? Thanks in Advance, pros Not to say that this occurs in every php software out there, but I far too occasionally notice that the application is written with scattered php open and close tags, for instance
<?php if(true) ?> <?php { ?> Blah blah blah, because it's true <?php } else { ?> because it's not true <?php } ?>To me, it is extremely irritating. Regardless, I see a lot of open source software written this way and I can't help but think that there must be some underlying reason for it. Magento, for example, is written exactly in this manner. The templates are infested with these opened and closed php snippets. Obscurity is not security so I'm ruling security reasons out. Maybe it is more efficient? -- But I couldn't understand why, if so. It seems like that would put more of a drag on the system itself causing php to start and stop parsing continually and excessively, then again, I'm no expert in the field of memory consumption and other operating system complexities. Honestly, in my opinion, it is stupid. i would never write a program that way.. HEREDOCs are much more useful and eye pleasing than that awful <?php { ?> I had the misfortune a few months ago when I purchased an invoicing/customer maintenance system that I didn't know was written for PHP 5.2 or something lower, one that allowed short tags; and thus short tags were used in the same manner as I've described. Is this just plain disorganization or is there some deep-seated inner lining advantage that I'm not aware of? I am using WPSQT plugin in my blog site .I code some files in PHP also.how to add that files in plugin files.
I would like to use an external API, and access it with my 2nd IP address of the server. Is this possible? And if so, how? Example: primary ip: 4.5.6.7 secondary ip: 4.5.6.8 primary ip is used to host several websites the PHP script I made runs in CLI, I want it to access the external API from my secondary ip. Thanks! Hi, What is the best way to print the local date and time, my website have customers from 4 or 5 countries. Saudi - UTC+3 Dubai - UTC+4 India - UTC+5.30 how to print the local time for them Thanks, Hi ppl I have a weird error... (or at least i think its weird) I have a project with 3 forms, and at the end(the last file) will enter all data of this form in an email and sent it using PEAR smtp email. On my local server it works. Everything - from testing all the mandatory fields in each form till the sending of the email. I also receive the email using @localhost. When I upload these files to the server, every form with the testing of the mandatory fields and returning to that form, everything works, except the file where I test the last form and put all content in the email body. On the server, as soon as the last page starts to load, I get a Server Error HTTP Error 500. I really don't understand it, as everything works on my local xampp server. Please let me know of places I can search for errors... like log files on the server or something like that. Thanks PS: I also used NetBeans, with its debugger, so I am quite sure its not the code, maybe a php setting... Hello, I am having a heck of a time trying to get time right on my website lol When a user logs in, they select what timezone they are in (UTC -1,-2,-3,-4,-5,-6....) Now this is great an all, but with daylight savings time my times are off by one hour in either direction. How do sites like this get times to work for users so easily? Thanks! weee Hey!

Hi everyone, The website I am working on is http://teemagroup.com/puyafolder and I have a global navigation with a drop down menu. What I want to do is on the right side have a PHP code to pull sub-pages under the drop down menu that its in. I don't quite know how to write it. For example everything under "Client Services" would go on the right side of that page. You know, to make it locally available instead of a drop down. And this code would work with all other pages. It would just pull what's under that page. I've added some files for you if you need it. This is done in wordpress if you wanted to know. im wondering is there any easy way to echo server time and local time... without converting them from unix to timestamp i have found thi code, but i cant tell is it server or local Code: [Select] echo date("H:i" ,time()); |
