PHP - Xml-rpc Request Confusion
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. Similar TutorialsDoing something wrong, but don't see it. How should one retrieve a POST parameter? My $request->toArray()['html'] works, but I am sure it is not the "right way".

$request = $requestStack->getCurrentRequest();

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? $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, $entry) keys. am i right ? Ok I have this form with 6 fields that the user enters a geocaching code. In the database I have a table called cacheinfo. There are 6 enteries in the database in this table. Now Im trying to confirm that each field entered matches the right geo code. I have it working but I feel that its a very bad way of doing it my way. can someone please show me a better way as I have other situations I do something simliar and its just getting silly. Here is the code; if(isset($_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 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> 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 $totals_old Let's say each looks like this (with the 123456 being different for both):
Array
(
[2014] => Array
(
[123456] => Array
(
[EMPS] => 114350
)
)
)
When I merge the two, I get something like this:
Array
(
[2014] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[123456] => Array
(
[EMPS] => 114350
)
)
[1] => Array
(
[60] => Array
(
[EMPS] => 1470
)
)
)
)
How can I avoid the [0] and [1] and just have those be [123456] and [60], without referencing the 123456 and 60?
Alright, hopefully my last question for this current project. I've build an array containing other arrays which each hold 5 values. I'm trying to loop through all the arrays in the main array but only pull out one of the values. What I have right now is: echo "<ol>"; for ($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][$col]."</li>"; } } echo "</ul>"; echo "</li>"; } echo "</ol>"; Which produces: Quote The row number 0 value0 value1 value2 value3 value4 How can I modify my code so I still loop through all the arrays, but only pull out say value0 from each of them? Thanks again. why does Code: [Select] while($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??? After reading the PHP guide that actually seems way more useful then online tutors. Im starting to see why PHP is confusing me now. My way of thinking is way off on how the script reads stuff. when I read this code I think the output should be Bob cause echo reads $foo which equals bob and thats the end of it. but the output is actually My name is bob can someone please help me understand the error of my thinking in how this works. would be most appreciated. Code: [Select] <?php $foo = 'Bob'; // Assign the value 'Bob' to $foo $bar = &$foo; // Reference $foo via $bar. $bar = "My name is $bar"; // Alter $bar... echo $foo; // $foo is altered too. ?> Hi How can i see which category is being used in rss feed, this is my code to parse one rss feed. $feed_url = "http://www.foo.com/feed/"; $xml = simplexml_load_file($feed_url); foreach ($xml->channel->item as $item) { $ns_content = $item->children('http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/'); $title = $item->title; // This is title $desc = $ns_content->encoded; // This is description $category =""; // Here i am stuck, how can i get category associated with this feed } How can i see its category, i see in source code it looks like this and even categories have sub categories which looks same, i wants categories names to display wihich is associated with feed: <category><![CDATA[Health]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Men]]></category> thanks for any help. Hi, I am writing a script for invoicing various contractor jobs. I have fields for date assigned and date completed. Both are timestamp with timezone columns in a postgresql table My goal is to have a cron job which selects the records from the table on the dates the invoices are due and includes the proper jobs-- i.e. the ones that are completed prior to the due date and time(5PM on the first and 15th of each month) That is where I am running into confusion as to how to store the time/tz and then select it in the future so everything is correct This is what I have right now: Code: [Select] $assignmenttype, "miles" => $miles, "notes" => $notes, "dateassigned" => "{$assignmenty1}-{$assignmentm1}-{$assignmentd1} $time1:00 America/Chicago", "datecompleted" => "{$completedassignmenty1}-{$completedassignmentm1}-{$completedd1} $time2:00 America/Chicago"); $res = pg_insert($conn, 'assignments', $invoicearray); hey, I started creating this page that is suppose to upload pdf files, it opens the file upload box but when i click to submit the file nothing happens.

My confusion is with this script <?php $file_dir ="/path/to/upload/directory" ; foreach($_FILES as $file_name => $file_array) { echo "path: ".$file_array["tmp_name"]."<br/>\n" ; echo "name: ".$file_array["name"]."<br/>\n" ; echo "type: ".$file_array["type"]."<br/>\n" ; echo "File name is" . " ". $file_name ; } ?> What I don't understand is the foreach statement foreach($_FILES as $file_name => $file_array) $_FILES is an associative array, right? So $filename should represent the key id and $file_array the value. but she is using the $file_array as if it is an array and accessing the values with associative index which confuses. I mean, let's say I declared a normal array. $array = array("Sarah" => "Jane", "John Smith") ; if i wanted to use a foreach loop i would do it like so foreach($array as $fname => $surname) { echo $fname ; echo $surname ; } $fname will print the first name and surname surname. I didn't use an indices to access the values. foreach($_FILES as $file_name => $file_array) can someone explain this to me? Thanks I'm fairly new to this and I have looked around but I can't find much information on it. Basically I know what an array and a function is but I'm currently working through an oop login and register sytem and I am seeing this quite a lot:
function myFunction($myVariable = array()){
$Firstvariable = $myVariable[0];
$Secondvariable = $myVariable[1];
//etc
}
This is really confusing me and I can't see any examples in any tutorial sites or books of an array and a function being used like this. Can someone just explain how something like this would work in simple terms? I have also checked the manual but I can't see an example an array being used like this. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Hey, I'm trying to create an object oriented webpage, with just some basic features, like creating a user, logging in, admin restricted pages. However I'm stuck at this point. This is my code: class_user.php Code: [Select] <?php include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/includes/class_database.php"; ?> <?php class User { private $database; public function __construct(MySqlDatabase $database) { //Type Hinting $this->database = $database; } public function find_all() { $result = $this->database->db_query("SELECT * FROM users"); return $result; } public function find_by_id($id=1) { $result = $this->database->db_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id={$id}"); $final = mysqli_fetch_array($result); return $final; } } ?>class_database.php Code: [Select] <?php include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/includes/values.php"; include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/includes/class_user.php"; ?> <?php class MySqlDatabase extends MySQLi { function __construct() { //Check if constants are missing if (defined(!DB_USERNAME) || defined(!DB_SERVER) || defined(!DB_PASSWORD) || defined(!DB_NAME)) { die("One or more of the database constants are missing: " . mysqli_errno); } //Establish connection if constants are present using the parent class parent::__construct(DB_SERVER, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME); //Echo error message if connection has failed if ($this->connect_errno) { die("Database connection has failed: " . $this->connect_errno); } } public function db_query($sql) { $result = mysqli_query($this->connection, $sql); if (!$result) { die("Database query failed: " . $this->errno); } return $result; } public function query_prep($value) { $result = mysqli_real_escape_string($this->connection, $value); if (!$result) { die("Preparing query failed: " . $this->errno); } return $result; } } ?>Calling externally: Code: [Select] <?php $database = new MySqlDatabase(); $user = new User($database); $found = $user->find_all(); ?>This is the error I'm getting: Quote Warning: mysqli_query() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in C:\xampp\htdocs\includes\class_database.php on line 28 Database query failed: 0 I've tried everything I can come up with, but still I'm stuck at this error. 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? Hi Everyone First off I don't know PHP except the includes statement which I use regularly to make the site a little easier to update. But anyways am having an issue. I am trying to make a standard template page. On a prior site I had it set up this way with the code I will post below and it worked for me but I have tried to implement it on this site and am not having any luck. Few things on the code below. It was designed for another site. So what I need is as follows. The home page should bring up the default index.txt file. That has the home page info on it. Second the code below has a table in the coding as I required a table on my site so that is in the code but for this site don't need the table. There is also one image in the code. That too is no longer required. I will just leave these in place that way you can see the code I am working with so you can hopefully correct it to work for me as I am going nuts trying to get this to work. Also somewhere in the coding it seems maybe there is an open link tag as I did get this to work a little bit but for some reason when it was the TXT file information was also being made to be a link even though the txt file for time being only contains basic text no coding what so ever. Now what I need is as follows. Default home page TXT file loaded when home page loads. But the link below is what I was using for my site and when this was clicked it would load the TXT file for that page so the example link below would open up a members page that was associated with my message board I was using. Code: [Select] <a href="members.php?categories_file=Members">Forum Members Websites</a> that link would bring up file members.txt which was stored in the text folder Below is the code that in both cases was and is placed in the main window of the table I am using for layout. Last time this all worked perfectly but this time not sure why it refuses to load the page like it use to. Can anyways sort this code so it works fine for me. Thanks!! Dave Code: [Select] <?php if ($_GET['categories_file']) $fp = fopen("text/$categories_file.txt", "r") or die("Could not open $categories_file."); while (!feof($fp)) { $line = fgets($fp, 512); $categories[] = $line; } asort($categories) or die("Could not sort array."); $table_column_counter = 0; echo "<table border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' width='90%'>"; foreach ($categories as $item) { if ($table_column_counter == 0) { echo "<tr>\r\n"; } $link = explode(",", $item); echo "<td><img src='images/green.gif' width='13' height='13'><a href='$link[1]' target='_blank'>".$link[0]."</a></td>"; if ($table_column_counter == 2) { echo "</tr>\r\n"; } $table_column_counter = $table_column_counter + 1; if ( $table_column_counter >= 2 ) { $table_column_counter = 0; } } ?> |
