Re: [phpesp-dev] form authorization modules

[James E. F. <jf...@ac...>]

Not that I know of but ideally phpESP would use the PEAR
Auth module for this. See the pear website[1] for mor info.

[phpesp-dev] form authorization modules

[Teackele S. <twe...@ho...>]

Hi,

Has anyone done an implementation of authoirization through html forms and 
posting them?
This to overcome the header problem, which doesn't work on many webservers.

Summary: Unanswered required question handling

Initial Comment:
I've installed phpESP-1.5 under Solaris 8, Apache
2.0.43 and PHP 4.2.3.
I have built a small survey and it's working fine,
except for one small
anomaly: if I omit filling in a required question, I
get a survey form back
that includes a message about the missing questions. 
The problem is that
the form does not have any of the answers indicated for
the subset of questions
that I did answer.
This seems to occur because I have register_globals=Off
in php.ini.
The esphtml.forms.inc file has comments indicating
'needs register_globals = on'
for setting the 'checked' html option.  Is this
desirable behaviour, in light
of the recommendations in php.ini to leave
register_globals set to Off?
I suggest that if it is indeed a requirement to use
register_globals=On for
replaying the answered questions properly, then if
register_globals is Off,
just the missing question texts be displayed, followed
by a directive to press the
BACK button and resubmit.

Something like this change might help (it still leaves
the "Submit Survey"
or "Next Page" button displayed ... so handler.php
needs more work too to make
this change viable.  Comments, anyone?

This shows up when viewing survey results.  In the case

order.  I was able to edit the SQL to grab the choices
in "admin/include/function/survey_results.inc" on
around line 217  under the "response_single" case,
adding an "ORDER BY id" to get the proper order.

Summary: Solaris 8 gettext test problem

Initial Comment:
I just installed phpESP v1.5 under Apache 2.0.43,
PHP 4.2.3 and I invoke manage.php ... I get nothing
but a browser error message about no data being sent.
I did some exploring and found that the test in
phpESP.ini for the gettext module being loaded or
available, is causing the problem here.  I did not
install GNU gettext when I built PHP.  Apparently
an error occurs when the .ini code attempts to @dl(
'gettext.so') ... and never returns to take alternative
action.  My work-around was to not attempt to load
gettext.so when PHP_OS reported SunOS.  So I have
this code change:
148c148
<     if (!ini_get('safe_mode')) {
---
>     if (!ini_get('safe_mode') && (substr(PHP_OS, 0,
3) != 'Sun')) {


which results in an English-only environment, which
is acceptable.

When I run your status.php script, I got:
php version: 4.2.3
cwd: /web/docs/InfoTech/UCSS/phpESP-1.5/admin
register_globals: off
magic_quotes_gpc: off

Thanks for the pointer to the info about dl() being
unreliable in multi-threaded webserver environemnts!
So I think we have a PHP issue (the @ prefix is not
preventing an early exit nor an error msg in the log).
And, since dl() is not going to work, the site admin
should set 'enable_dl=Off' in php.ini, and then a script
writer could test the value of enable_dl.  So here's a
"better" fix for phpESP.ini:

148c148
<     if (!ini_get('safe_mode')) {
---
>     if (!ini_get('safe_mode') && ini_get('enable_dl')) {

I can confirm this behavior on RH 8
Server: Apache/2.0.43 (Unix) PHP/4.2.3
phpESP 1.5

New to PHP but, tracked problem down by sticking echo's in 
until I found:
@dl( (substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)
== 'WIN') ? 'php_gettext.dll' : 'gettext.so'
);

which I commented out. This allowed authorization prompt to

[phpesp-dev] reversals diff file

[rebecca s. <rss...@ya...>]

I've submitted the code changes to Kon to allow the
designer to identify questions as reversals.  This
really only helps folks who have to analyze the data
outside of phpesp.

Will work on the download process now to make sure it
passes the reversal info.

Constant Sum (new question type 15) is coded and
awaiting Kon coming up for air so I can discuss error
trapping (spreading too few or too many points).  

After I get the reversals into the current dowload
code, I'll work on the customized labels for rank
questions.

[phpesp-dev] constant sum

[rebecca s. <rss...@ya...>]

Well.. the new question type (15) which allows you to
let the respondent key in (spread) a value over
several options should probably be called "constant
sum".

I have it coded and working BUT have a dilemma with
regards to error checking the total of the values the
respondent keyed in vs. the total allowed for that
question.

Would someone be willing to chat about this on
freenode?

Let me know a time you'll likely be lurking there on
Friday or Monday and I'll try to be there as well.

[phpesp-dev] problem with gettext

[<mic...@gm...>]

I've problems getting the german version to work.

On my local (windows) system I had to modify the phpESP.ini as follows:
cut out line: setlocale(LC_ALL, $ESPCONFIG['lang']);
add line: putenv("LC_ALL=de");   

With "putenv" all seems to be ok. "Setlocale" seems not to work on my
win2000 system.

But neither with setlocale or with putenv I get phpESP to work on the
Linux-Webserver where the production version has to be installed. Some info about
the server is below.

Any help, any hints?
Thank you 
Mike

Is gettext installed and compiled for PHP? Please tell us
the output of this[1] script when run from your webserver.

[phpesp-dev] paired comparisons

[rebecca s. <rss...@ya...>]

I finished unit and application testing for paired
comparisons today and have sent the diff file on to
Kon in a separate email.

The next question type I need is a percentage question
much along the lines of feature request 573863.

I plan to use question type 15 for this new question
type but need to research the literature for an
appropriate name.

If anyone is currently working on a solution for
request 573863, please let me know.

[phpesp-dev] semantic

[rebecca s. <rss...@ya...>]

Okay..

Separately, I'm sending Kon the code changes (diff
file) for semantic differential. (Refer to general
request: 493332)

It includes the table change for question type.

Kon.. this code change has a work around for the dl()
call in phpesp.ini since I'm running a multi-thread
server.

..
Next, I need a paired comparison question.  I don't
see an outstanding request for that.  But since it
works nearly the same way as a semantic differential,
should be straightforward to code.

I'll use question type 14 unless anyone has any
objections.

Rebecca

[phpesp-dev] Sun-gettext issue

[rebecca s. <rss...@ya...>]

I believe your problem is actually the same issue I
stumbled over last week.

dl() function is not a valid function call on a
multi-threaded server.

Could you run php_info and tell me if the enable_dl is
set on or off?

If you have a multi-thread server, you should change
your php.ini file to have enable_dl = Off (per the
developers at php.net).

A more generic change (in phpESP.ini) of:

   if (!ini_get('safe_mode') && enable_dl) { ....

might be warranted.

Rebecca

Summary: Solaris 8 gettext test problem

Initial Comment:
I just installed phpESP v1.5 under Apache 2.0.43,
PHP 4.2.3 and I invoke manage.php ... I get nothing
but a browser error message about no data being sent.
I did some exploring and found that the test in
phpESP.ini for the gettext module being loaded or
available, is causing the problem here.  I did not
install GNU gettext when I built PHP.  Apparently
an error occurs when the .ini code attempts to @dl(
'gettext.so') ... and never returns to take alternative
action.  My work-around was to not attempt to load
gettext.so when PHP_OS reported SunOS.  So I have
this code change:
148c148
<     if (!ini_get('safe_mode')) {
---
>     if (!ini_get('safe_mode') && (substr(PHP_OS, 0,
3) != 'Sun')) {


which results in an English-only environment, which
is acceptable.

When I run your status.php script, I got:
php version: 4.2.3
cwd: /web/docs/InfoTech/UCSS/phpESP-1.5/admin
register_globals: off
magic_quotes_gpc: off
magic_quotes_runtime: off
safe_mode: off
open_basedir: 
mysql: loaded
gettext: not loaded ... trying to load

[phpesp-dev] New features under development.

[angek <ang...@ip...>]

Hi Guys,

Just a quick one to let you know how my development is going and by
doing so hopefully ensuring that we are not duplicating our efforts.

I have finished stage 1 of the cross analysis and tabulation gui. Stage
2 will be to incorporate graphs with the cross tabulation and analysis
tool. This stage is underway.
Stage 3 will be to clean up the code and make it all available to the
devel list for testing prior to commiting.
Having said that if anyone is in real need for such a feature and can't
wait until I make it available to this list I'd be happy to send you
what I've got.

I also checked out the BRANCH_UCSB branch (survey forking feature -
supplied by Steve McGhee) made some mods and have it working (although I
haven't tested it thoroughly yet).
I'll be merging the changes with the latest devel cvs version of phpESP
over the weekend and start testing it properly. I should have it
finished and made available to this list within a week or two.
The same deal as above applies. If you can't hang on until then drop me
an email and I'll send you what I've got.

[phpesp-dev] dl() change for multithread servers

[rebecca s. <rss...@ya...>]

 dl() function fails if you are running a multi-thread
server 

I've added an addition check for 'enable_dl' value so
the dl() function will not be called if you do not
have enable_dl turned on in your php_ini file.

I grepped looking for any other occurances of  ' dl'
and found none.

Would someone move this change into the code base?

I totally agree.
Will suppress warning and issue error message.
I'll patch and commit to cvs shortly.

[phpesp-dev] [ phpesp-Bugs-637918 ] Results show quest. choices out of order

Summary: Results show quest. choices out of order

Initial Comment:
This shows up when viewing survey results.  In the case
of a radio button, I was seeing the choices in reverse
order.  I was able to edit the SQL to grab the choices
in "admin/include/function/survey_results.inc" on
around line 217  under the "response_single" case,
adding an "ORDER BY id" to get the proper order.

I think that this should be patched so that it fails
silently, or with a clear message if chdir() fails.

Re: [phpesp-dev] semantic differential

[angek <ang...@ip...>]

Hi Rebecca,

James' suggestion about the best kind of diffs being unified diffs is
something I also agree with. James also has a very valid point when
saying that if you are going to be devoting quite a bit of time to
phpESP that you should work with the CVS version. Have a think about how
dedicated you are about helping out with this project.

ps. Your html compliance changes are looking good!
