Yes, I see. The new order is coming :)
Well .... If I rewrite all the things corresponding to the manual, the
class will stop work under pre-4.1, because registering/unregistering
session variables using direct assignment to the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS or
$_SESSION was introdused first in 4.1.
I guess the fix would be a simple thing, which checks for a version &
register_globals settings and uses different
register/unregister/is_registered ways to do things.

MW> As I say everything works with register globals off and the old sessions.
Yes, because the old Session pushes the registered variables into the
global scope. It does not depend on register_globals, because its
variables are always global.

Haven't tried yet. Why it should not? It does not interfere with
external variables, so it should not suffer from register_globals
setting.
But many things in PHPLIB, like Auth, i guess, need to be fixed to
work with register globals off.
More fixes should be in the PHPLib-based code itself because of the
coding style, when session variables were assumed to always appear in
the global scope.

Re: [Phplib-users] Ooforms doesn't work when I set 'register-globals =off'

[Mike G. <Mik...@sa...>]

Ernest,

I have not yet gotten to making oohforms work with register globals off.
But as a start I would suggest you replace
global $PHP_SELF;
in get_start()
with $PHP_SELF = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

In addition I suspect that the statement "global $$vname" in function
marshal_dispatch() of oohforms.inc would need to be changed to use one of
the new superglobals ($_GET and/or $_POST). I would have to digest what
marshal_dispatch() is doing to know for sure. (I think I once knew what
marshal_dispatch() did. But it escapes me now.)

Cheers!

[Phplib-users] register_globals off

[Mike G. <Mik...@sa...>]

I've searched this list and perused CVS to try to find what others have
done to make PHPLib work with register_globals off. And I've tried out
some patches to my own code. I can't, however, get things working.

What I've done (based upon the foregoing) is to add the following to
prepend.php:
    $PHP_SELF         = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
    $HTTP_REFERER     = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
    $HTTP_USER_AGENT  = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
    $REMOTE_ADDR      = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    $QUERY_STRING     = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
and
        $username = $_POST['username'];
        $password = $_POST['password'];
to function auth_validatelogin().

I'm using session4.inc, session4_custom.inc, and user4.inc and PHPLib
7.4-pre1.

BTW I suspect that at least the statement "global $$vname" in function
marshal_dispatch() of oohforms.inc would need to be changed to make
oohforms work for register_globals off. But I haven't gotten that far
yet. And I would have to digest what marshal_dispatch() is doing to know
for sure. (I think I once knew what marshal_dispatch() did. But it
escapes me now.)

TIA for any recommendations.

Cheers!

[Phplib-users] (no subject)

[<pe...@kr...>]

Hi there

I'm thinking of using pre-authorisation on a new site I'm involved in developing.

Assuming I dont want to use rabbit intestines, but instead want to use cookies, this is what I reckon is involved.

A.
Modify my auth_validatelogin() to set a cookie once the user has been validated - eg
	setcookie("ckUser",$uid,time()+360000); // Valid for 100 hours ie approx 4 days
and to clear the cookie if validation fails (not sure how this could happen, but lets be safe)
	setcookie("ckUser","",time()-3600);

B.
Write an auth_preauth something like this:
   function auth_preauth() {
      //Very basic check to prove the concept
      global $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS;
      $uid = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['ckUser'];

      if (empty($uid)) {

         return false;

      } else {

         $this->db->query(sprintf("select username,perms,password from %s where user_id = '%s'",
                                $this->database_table, $uid));

         while($this->db->next_record()) {
            $username = $this->db->f("username");
            $perm  = $this->db->f("perms");
         }

         if (empty($username)) {
            return false;
         } else {
            $this->auth["uname"] = $username;
            $this->auth["perm"]  = $perm;
            return $uid;
         }
      }

C.
and finally override auth_unauth():
  function unauth() {
    $this->auth["uid"]   = "";
    $this->auth["perm"]  = "";
    $this->auth["exp"]   = 0;
    setcookie("ckUser","",time()-3600);
  }


OK then. Firstly - is this the approach you would take, or have taken? Is there a better way?

Secondly - what are the security implications? Should I be storing the UID? Is there a way to guarantee that someone hasnt stolen the cookie or faked it on another machine? (I thought of also keeping the IP address, but that wont work because of dynamic IP allocation).


Thanks for your thoughts!

Yes I've just started a new project with phplib with register globals off=

found this too.

The CVS says some fixes have been added in for register globals off but t=

doesn't work either.

So far I've found that most things I've tried up to now (sess, perm) seem=

work ok. This is with the newer files from CVS.

I have not however got the working with the max's session4 stuff.

So far I haven't had time to have a look an further into any of it.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help

Re: [Phplib-users] IIS and cookie mode

[anze <an...@vo...>]

Hi!

The plan A (turn off fallback mode) worked for me... Just a word about this 
code (plan C) - I looked it up on the Internet and someone wrote that it 
doesn't work since the vars it uses are set in the part that follows it. I 
didn't check it though. Just so that someone doesn't waste too much time 
figuring out what he did wrong. :)

Thanks for help, have fun!

a long time ago we had the same problem
this is what our kb says about it (IIRC we=B4ve  choosen "c"):


A. There is a way -- but it doesn't work in fall-back mode:

    Subject:  [PHPLIB] IIS 4 is real pupu!
    From:     Giancarlo Pinerolo <pi...@ac...>
    Date:     1999-01-13 13:08:02

    Ok that IIS 4 flushes cookies and wants to  start any new session in
'get'
mode but, even after  applying the suggested changes (A 'META HTTP-REFRES=
H
to
itself' instead of a 'location: PHP_SELF', and set PHPLIB to send cookies=
 in
any case, even  if in fallback-get mode), I found that all HTTP_POST_VARS
are
lost when in *real* 'get' mode (eg when cookies are *really* disabled)...

B. You should not want to use the GET fallback mode and it probably won't
work
if you use one of the fixes to make cookies work on IIS:

    Subject:  [PHPLIB] IIS, Netscape Server vs. PHPLIB redirect (was: php=

    Date:     1999-01-20 13:53:52

    ...Cookie mode is the only _sane_ way to maintain such an application.
Get

is not easy. It should not be easy to maintain solutions that are broken =

C. Here is a way:

    If you are using IIS on NT its not going to use cookie mode as the wa=
y
PHPLib works out of the box isn't compatible with IIS. IIS won't send a
cookie
and do a Header:Location in the same request. You have to modify some cod=

(the start function in session.inc) so it does a META REFRESH instead of =

[Phplib-users] IIS and cookie mode

[anze <an...@vo...>]

Hi!

Can someone tell me how to convince PHPlib to propagate session IDs with 
cookies (actually, how to get it to work) on IIS? I have found some similar 
questions on the Net but no suitable answers... The problem is that the 
browser doesn't get cookie (even though the mode="cookie" and not "get") and 
therefore loses its session ID on next screen. GET mode is not suitable for 
my application because some of the pages are raw html. Everything works fine 
on production machine (Apache), but not on IIS.

There was a hint on Net that the problem is with setting cookies and 
redirecting at the same time (AFAIK PHPlib does that)... Any solutions 
besides moving to a better HTTP server? :(

Thanks, have fun!

Re: [Phplib-users] Template - block name showing when no block returned

[Layne W. <la...@if...>]

I have found one application for it in production, but I only apply "keep"
for a short while before I resume "remove". There are probably other uses.

When I have a search that allows the user to sort the results by any number
of columns, I want to arrange the columns of my list table to match the
order of the sort columns. I don't want to be parsing blocks for each item
in a list, so I make one pass with "keep" to arrange the columns and then
loop through the results with "remove" to insert the data.

The following example is from a time-billing application we use internally.


My search results template contains:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

<table border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<!-- BEGIN employee_column_head -->
	<th class="listHead" width="115">Employee</th>
<!-- END employee_column_head -->
<!-- BEGIN date_column_head -->
	<th class="listHead" width="81">Date</th>
<!-- END date_column_head -->
<!-- BEGIN client_column_head -->
	<th class="listHead" width="115">Client</th>
<!-- END client_column_head -->
<!-- BEGIN task_column_head -->
	<th class="listHead" width="115">Task</th>
<!-- END task_column_head -->
<!-- BEGIN hours_column_head -->
	<th class="listHead" width="81">Hours*</th>
<!-- END hours_column_head -->
</tr>
<!-- BEGIN ticket -->
<tr>
<!-- BEGIN employee_column -->
	<td valign="top">{employee}</td>
<!-- END employee_column -->
<!-- BEGIN date_column -->
	<td valign="top">{date_display}</td>
<!-- END date_column -->
<!-- BEGIN client_column -->
	<td valign="top">{client}</td>
<!-- END client_column -->
<!-- BEGIN task_column -->
	<td valign="top">{task}</td>
<!-- END task_column -->
<!-- BEGIN hours_column -->
	<td align="center" valign="top">
		<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 width="71">
		<tr>
			<td align="left" width="38">{hours_worked}&nbsp;</td>
			<td align="right" width="33">{hours_billed}</td>
		</tr>
		</table>
	</td>
<!-- END hours_column -->
</tr>
<!-- END ticket -->
</table>

---------------------------------------------------------------------



My results script - after setting the search query, etc.

Note: I use 2 instances of Template which I have extended to allow one
argument to parse (target and varname are assumed to be the same) and adding
clear_var() - a shortcut for set_var("varname", "") that allows arrays of
varnames.

RE: [Phplib-users] Template - block name showing when no block re turned

[Rogers, P. <Pau...@mo...>]

Layne

Thanks for the email.  You're right, I had left "keep" in the initialisation
statement (I've been blindly following the examples I found on day one).
Removing it has fixed the problem.  Is there any reason for leaving it in,
other than for debugging?

Many thanks


Paul

Have you set unknowns to "keep" when initializing Template? If so, you'll
want to set the block to a null string if there are no records found. The
problem that was fixed in 7.2b affected all blocks in PHP 4, not just empty
ones.

I had replied directly to Richard Archer about this and forgot to CC the 
list.  Here is the follow-up:

My bad.  I messed with it for a couple hours.  I set $allowcache = "no" in 
session.inc and corrected a couple of spots in my code where the session 
wasn't being appended properly to a link's url.  It now seems to work 
correctly for IE 5 and 6.

What problems are you seeing and with which browsers?
And which version of PHP are you running?

I have seen conflicting reports of Explorer's requirements of the
Cache-Control header. Apparently newer versions require it to be a
comma-separated list of arguments. Older versions require a separate
Cache-Control header per argument.

Have the page caching issues with IE been addressed in the 7.4 pre-release?

I had some problems with 7.2d not properly rendering pages (when I was still 
learning how to use it and just trying out the examples in docs) - I switched 
to 7.4 prerelease (last one that is out) and everything seems to work fine 
now. There are definitely some bugs in 7.2d, so check out 7.4 to be sure...

Hope it helps!

[Phplib-users] Template - block name showing when no block returned

[Rogers, P. <Pau...@mo...>]

Dear All

I have blocks working but if the database query returns no records I get the
bookmark, ie {block_name}.  I have checked the archive and it suggests this
has bee fixed in 7.2b or 7.2c.  I am currentl using 7.2d and it still
doesn't work.  Can any one tell me if this has indeed been fixed and if so
where I can find the fix?

Many thanks

Paul
