CSV File-based Address Book Code Snippet?
Since I'm a PHP newbie and the only address book apps I found
through Google require MySQL or PostgreSQL, I figured I'd ask if
someone has come code handy.
I'd just like to keep a list of addresses in a CSV file (ie. columns
last name, first name, e-mail, office #, etc.) so as to ease backing
up, and read/update this list from a PHP script.
I guess it's pretty much just a loop to read + parse, and a form to
update, but if someone has the code handy, I'm interested :-)

A User-accessible Address Book Using Php?
I still can't figure it all out. I am trying to create a web page (using php) where: 1) A visitor add his or her name to an address book that can also be viewed online by other visitors to the website. In creating this, I will also need to: 2) Allow that visitor to create a username and password to add his/her information. 3) Allow that visitor to make changes and updates to his or her entry in future visits to the website. and... 4) Create an automated system for that user to retreive his/her username and/or password if s/he has forgotten it. Boy oh boy, would I be happy just to be able to make step #1 a reality. Can anyone please help me with this? I am leasing space from Aitcom and my server is a Linux system. I have MySQL and PHP available to work with. I have an example in mind. The following website is another school very similar to ours in Maine, and they have a system in place almost exactly as I'd like to create:
Contact List Or Address Book Repost
Posted this incorrectly as a response in an unrelated thread. Sorry! I've looked at many that are available, but would like to solicit other ideas. I am looking for a solution to manage and make available the 1000's of name and numbers that a family accumulates. I want to make this information available away from the home, and have a host with: PHP Version 4.3.3 Mysql Version 4.0.15-standard Php-projekt seems to have the features in Contacts that I would like, especially import and export. I would like something with a simpler interface, though. Is there a PHP book that might cover something like this? I don't have the programming experience to do this, of course, but maybe I should attempt it. I've rambled on a bit, but think this is a topic that many people are interested in.
Serving A Website Based On Source Internet Address ?
Based on the source internet address a different version of the website should be presented/served to the user/browser. I would like to keep the script as simple as possible and it should replace the index.php. The script could look something like this in pseudo code: if SourceAddress = â¸.3.5.1' then begin ShowBlueWebsite; // load/show BlueIndex.htm end else if SourceAddress = ït.5.15.7' then begin ShowRedWebsite; // load/show RedIndex.htm end; Is this possible with php ?
PHP Based Email Address Obfuscator For Website Mailto: Tags
I found a PHP based email obfuscator for use in websites, where the source HTML (PHP, actually) file doesn't contain the actual email address in the Mailto tag, but generates it and that generated page (containing a full and conventional Mailto: tag) is what is ultimately presented to the user. The intent is to thwart Spam bots and spiders, by NOT having the email address in the original HTML Source, but ultimately presenting it to the person browsing the site. But here's my question.... Even though the program works exactly as advertised, isn't this a case of flawed logic on the part of this scripts author? PHP runs server-side, so won't the PHP be interpreted, whether it's requested by a bot, a spider, or a legit website visitor? (and thereby, presenting the bot with the full Mailto: tag and email address anyway)? Or is there something basic I'm missing here?
Book Script ,should I Use Txt File Or Mysql Text Field ?

I have noticed, when i copy 150 kB files and paste into phpmyadin, it gives me internel error..but it insert record. I used txt field for book contain.
Code Review: Does This Class Method Really Validate An Email Address?
I wrote a method that should check if an email address is valid. In another method I've already checked to see if $_POST['email'] exists and is well-formed, so those checks are not necessary in this scope. However, "Step 4" bothers me, and I wonder if others are as bothered as I am. [PHP] /** * Validate submitted email * * @access private * @see checkdnsrr * @link http://www.devshed.com/c/a/PHP/Email-Address-Verification-with-PHP/4/ * @see link regarding use of getmxerr() as a double-check behind checkdnsrr * @link http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.fsockopen.php * @see link regarding usage of fsockopen() for domain reachability verification */ function &validateEmail() {// STATIC VOID METHOD global $webmasterEmail; list($user, $domain) = @explode('@', $_POST['email']); if ($this->isValid && (!$user || !$domain)) { $this->isValid = false; $this->setErrorArray(array('email' => 'No validly formed email address was found')); } // STEP 1: USE checkdnsrr (either built-in UNIX version or "homegrown" version in client functions.inc.php for Windows) if ($this->isValid && !checkdnsrr($domain) && !$_ENV['windir'] && !$_SERVER['windir']) { // ONLY PRODUCE AN ERROR IF NOT IN WINDOWS ELSE ALLOW getmxrr() TO THROW ERROR $this->isValid = false; $this->setErrorArray(array('email' => "Domain: "$domain" not found to exist for email address to be valid")); } // STEP 2: MAKE SURE $domain IS NOT OUR DOMAIN if ($this->isValid && strcmp(trim($domain), preg_replace('/^([w]{3}[a-zA-Z0-9]*).?([a-zA-Z0-9-_.]+)$/i', '$2', $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'])) == 0) { $this->isValid = false; $this->setErrorArray(array('email' => "You are not allowed to use our domain of "$domain" for your email address")); } // STEP 3: USE getmxrr() BUILT-IN PHP FUNCTION TO DOUBLE-CHECK BEHIND STEPS 1 AND 2 if ($this->isValid && @!getmxrr($domain, $hostArray)) { $this->isValid = false; $this->setErrorArray(array('email' => "Domain: "$domain" is not found to exist for the email address to be valid")); } // STEP 4: VERIFY VIA fsockopen() IF YOU CAN EVEN REACH THAT DOMAIN, MEANING IT'S ACTIVE (COULD ALSO BE DOWN OR UNREACHABLE OR BOGUS) if ($this->isValid) { $socketID = @fsockopen($domain, 25, $errno, $error, 15);// LAST NUMBER IS TIMEOUT FEATURE - TIMEOUT AFTER 15 SECS if (!$socketID) { $msg = "There was a problem attempting to connect to "$domain": " .. nl2br($error) .

Select Specific Snippet Of Text, Replace With A Database Result
I'm having some problems trying to do something; I just can't think of a way to do it. Basically, I want to search for a specific snippet of text in a body of text, then replace it with the requested database result with some thrown in HTML. Users will be able to type the following (or something along these lines, depending on what works best): [image=12345]Insert caption here[/image] Then I need it to search for the requested image in the appropriate table and return the image's url (for an example, let's say the table is called "images", and the columns required are "imageid" and "imageurl". Code:
Database Or Flat File Based?
I'm writing a news script, where I can write articles and have them outputted on my homepage. What I'm wondering before I start is; does anyone have any advice whether something like this would be better of stored in a database or flat files? Some articles could be quite long and I just thought they may be better suited stored in a .txt file for instance, but then again it might not make any difference.

[PHP5] File Base Vs. Directory Based Authentication?
I'm looking to implement login/registration system in PHP5 and MySQL. Thus, I have come across alot of resources and source code to perform this task. However, I'm wondering, what's the best method (i.e. PHP/MySQL or PHP/MySQL using .htpasswd) from a security? Essentially, I will need to be able to password protect an entire directory. Also, a small set of directories will be for admin eyes only. BTW, I will have both admin and guest members for this membership site. Finally, if you can point me to both source and/or white papers,
Can I Hide My Email Address In Require File
I am wanting to hide my email address so that a spammer cannot use one of their "crawlbots" to crawl the pages in my web site and steal my email address.

I'm trying to put together a script that will read an email box set up for newsletter bounces and remove the bad addresses. There's an old script I've worked with that looks for --- Permanant fatal errro ---, but not all the bounced emails have that line included (3 out of about 700 do). I need to find the bad address, then delete that address out of the database. I've got the deleting out of database down, but am not sure how to find any email address & delete it.

PHP Book Recommendations
I am going to be teaching an introductory, course on PHP. As this course has not been offered before, there are no existing materials or list of resources for me to choose from. This is a Good Thing(TM) because I get to do Whatever I Want(TM) as far as choosing course materials goes. So here's the questions: What PHP books do you like? Why do you like them? What expertise range is targeted by the particular book(s) you have mentioned? What books do you really *not* like and why? (just as useful info as knowing which books are popular is knowing which are *un*popular) What other PHP resources have you used and why? Keep in mind that I am just feeling out the PHP community for opinions. If in fact there *is* a PHP community.

Which Book To Choose?
At the moment I own PHP and MySQL for Dynamic websites 2nd edition by Larry Ullman. I've read through it and done several examples. However, I personally find by creating mini websites, instead of just typing one page scripts that I learn it more. I have gone through the content management system and user management system in the book several times, using and adapting the code for different websites. I now want to expand these examples so I can see how different people code and find the best medium for myself. Which book of the following three would you suggest I buy? Sams teach your self PHP, MySQL, Apache all in one Sams teach your self PHP in 24 hours Sams teach your self Ajax, Javascript and PHP in 24 hours PHP and MySQL Web Development 3rd edition
Downloading Php Code Instead Of File

But when it is dloaded and I open it, it contains te HTML code of the file displayed... Wordt thin g is - it _used_ to work so the code is OK - only some little thing changed. Maybe the header part? global $HTTP_GET_VARS, $connection; $nodelist = array(); // Pull file meta-data $SQL = "select * from filemetadata where id = '" . $HTTP_GET_VARS[ID]."'"; if (!$result = mysql_query($SQL, $connection)) die("Failure to retrieve file metadata:L ".$php_error); if (mysql_num_rows($result ) != 1) die("Not a valid file id!"); $FileObj = mysql_fetch_array($result); // Pull the list of file inodes $SQL = "SELECT id FROM filedata WHERE Masterid='".$HTTP_GET_VARS[ID]."'

Php 5 Information, Tutorial, Book, Etc
I have worked on php for the past 6 years off-and-on and I was planning on making the conversion over to 5.x and I understand there has been a lot of changes from 4.x. Based on this, I was wonder if you could suggest a book that highlights the changes with examples as well as a site or two that would help with this. On another note, I would like to know how you guys seperate and tier your applications in php (I have been working with .NET in which we used a 3-tier). Do you try and use 3-tier, 2? How do you pass around the connection in php when you seperate the code (use some type of global or always pass the connection)? Etc?
Looking For A Good Php Book To Use With Adobe CS3
Sometime back I bought a couple books on Dreamweaver and Flash for the CS2 Suite and along with it bought a book for Php, Foundation Php for Dreamweaver 8. I read the Dreamweaver and Flash books but never have read the Php book. Now that I was ready to I just upgraded to the CS3 suite. My question is, is it important to look for a newer Php book to use with this CS3 suite or would the current book be ok and up to date? Should I look into the Foundation Php 5 for Flash 8 as a complement to the current book or is there a completely other book I should look into? I'm completely new at Php so am definitely looking at something that's entry level.

How Do I Parse PHP Code Within An HTML File?
I'm trying to figure out a way to save message bodies of the various e-mails I send from my site into HTML pages and then import them when I send the e-mails. But I've never tried anything like this before so I'd appreciate some help. Here's an example of the code I'm using: Code: $email_body = file_get_contents("emails/application_approved.htm"); I can import the HTML files without problems, but I've also got PHP variables in the HTML code and I need to know how to parse those variables. Is it even possible?
