PHP :: Generating A List Of Files On Another Server

Generating A List Of Dates
Using PHP 4.4.4, I want to generate an array that contains strings
representing days from Jan. 1, 2005 to whatever the current day is.
So the array would contain the first values

&#55614;&#57157;-01-01', &#55614;&#57157;-01-02', &#55614;&#57157;-01-03'

and end with the values

&#55614;&#57159;-01-27', &#55614;&#57159;-01-28'

In case you're interested, I will then take this array and populate a
MySQL table.

Generating A Dynamic List
I am tying to write a statement that will compare the values of 2 columns, and display the result in a temp table.

ex. Table A has the following columns: "Minimum" and "Maximum." The temp table will hold the reult of the difference between the 2 columns of table A.

Scope: I am trying to crate a drop down with the resulting data as it is incremented. If Min = 2 and Max = 7, the TEMP tab;e should get the results of 2,3,4,5,6,7. I want to have this result displayed in a drop-down list.

Get A List Of Files On A Website
I need to get a list of all files in a particular virtual directory on
a web site, such as -
http://www.myServer.com/FileStore

I tried using the directory functions, but this doesn't work.

if($dirHandle = opendir("http://www.myServer.com/FileStore/"))
{
while(false !== ($file = readdir($dirHandle)))
{
print($file."<br>");
}
}

Is there a way to do this?

How Does One Get A List Of All Files In A Folder?
need a list of all files (i have like 5k or so) in a folder, I need to add there names to a table

I am doing this so i can compare two tables

table 1. comments added to uploaded pics -finished pictures-
table 2. no comments added yet to uploaded pics (so they can be commented on GET IT?) -unfinished pictures-

All the pictures are in a single folder for the time being i'm going to be making a form based on the pictures that are on table 2 so that they can have comments and titles and file name added to table 1 (to be done still) but i need to know all the file names for the folder in question, i guess i could do it via cmd line ls or something like that, i'll get back to you.

List Php Files In Directory.
I am creating a plugins folder that I will use to store php files. I also store other folders within that "plugins" folder. The problem I have is getting the script to read only the the .php files and skip subfolders.

Plugins[main folder]
->plugin1.php
->plugin2.php
->screenshot[folder]
->downloads[folder]

How to keep the script from checking the folders (screenshots, downloads..) This part of my script filters the main folder and parent but not subfolders

if ($file!= "." && $file!= "..") {

How do i get that code to not check subfolders.

Dropdown List Of Files In Folder
I am preparing a form that includes a drop-down list consisting of the names of files in a certain folder on the server.

I only need to trap the file name (jpg), not the path and I'm not trying to upload the files or anything - simply allow the user to select one of a number of different image files (they're actually location maps).

Display A List Of Files In A Folder
How do you display a list of files in a folder and then delete one by clicking on it?

How Do I Edit A List Of Files Associated With A Product ?
-I wrote a script that you use it to add products in the database.
-Each product is associated with files.
-In the Form to add the product you have to enter the product name in a
textfield and below there are $no_of_add_file filefields.
$no_of_add_file is an integer that determines the Maximum number of
filefields that you want to associate/add for each product.

So it succesfully adds the product and the files in a database and the
filesystem.

The problem I am trying to solve is how am I going to edit those files in
the product.
If you know what I mean... and you have done something like that or you know
a url or script that does that, pls let me know.
What I need mostly, is not the PHP code but the logic and what are the
possible ways of doing something like that.

In the database i have two tables that this script needs:
One is the products and the other the files.

Products : product_id, product_name
Files : file_id, file_name, product_id

Get A List Of File Names From The Server
im working on a flash interface that needs to call a script that reads a directory on the server and returns the names of the files that are there. what would the php command look like that would get the file names?

List Files In Directory Excluding Directories
I have the following code which I require to get the list of files in a given directory. However in that given directory I have other directories as well. I thought the second if condition was taking care of excluding the directories, but its not. I get a bunch of directories listed along with the files. PHP Code:

List Of Files Fetched Via Include() Or Require()
I want to be able to, at the end of an executed file, summarize what files it
included and required (via include() and require()). I have a very dynamic
script that depending on the situation handles several different files and
scripts.

To aid in developing, listing them would be helpful, to troubleshooting
problems. Iss there a way to list all the files that have been included along
the way?

Create PHP Pages From List Of Files In Directory
this is probably easy for a php pro... but I cant figure it
out..

I have a directory of mp3 files named like this.
Chevy_Car_Commercial.mp3

There are about 150 files.

I am trying to find a script that will make php pages based on the file
names.
chevy_car_commercial.php

And also dump that variable title
Chevy Car Commercial into the <title> of the web page...

I have made dynamic pages before... but that was using a form..

Ereg, Read The Dir And Print List Of Files.
I have a dir of html files that link to websites, i would like to read the dir
and print a list of those files as a link. Which the script i have does. I
would like to take this one step further and replace the ".html" extension
with ".com" so it winds up being:

List Files In Directory For Apache Alias
I want to list the files in a given <dir> with a given file extension ...
opendir() or scandir() would seem to be my solution. BUT! those files are outside the root dir of the site ... accessed via an apache alias. so opendir() and similar functions do not seem to work as I cannot feed it a relative path.

is there a way to do this?

my page:
<http://myintranet/prodinfo/listdir.php>

http location of dir to be listed:
<http://myintranet/dailies/>
/dailies/ is an alias pointing elsewhere on the server.
indexing has been turned on for this alias in apache, so loading the above URL shows the dir contents by default.

so for example ...

this works because /images is in the root of the web dir:
$myDir = "../images/";
$scanFiles = scandir($myDir);
print_r($scanFiles);

this does not work as dailies is an alias and not a dir in the web root:
$myDir = "../dailies/";
$scanFiles = scandir($myDir);
print_r($scanFiles);

one option I see is to grab the html of that apache auto-generated index page and parse the content to grab the links out of it. but this seems rather roundabout, and with all the great php file tools, I'm hoping there's a much simpler way.

does anyone have any ideas, or is there some addtl info I can provide to make my question clearer?

Files Move From Server To Server
I moving to a new server. Is there a way that I can do this without downloading all my files and uploading them? Is there a script that can do this?

PDF Files On The Server
I create pdf files on my unix server using php and a very useful utility from http://ros.co.nz/pdf/.
Due to many IE problems I have found the best way is to save them to disk rather than streaming them and then redirect the user using javascript.
The problem is that the file is then on the server. I can write a cron to delete the files every so often but the files contain sensitive information so I would not want them to be accessed by just anyone.
My main site is password protected through php and mysql. I have thought of using .htaccess files but then the user is asked for a username and password even though they are logged in to my system. Is there anyway of securing these files?

Uploading Files To Sql Server
I'm trying to upload files (into an image field) and then download them, but my files are reduced to 4096 bytes after the downloading. I've tried to execute the query "set textsize=60000" before each select, but this seems to have no effect. I read the files and execute the queries from php 4.2.4.

Transporting Php Files To A Mac-server?
Run into some problems when transporting my php filez to a mac server (it is unix based, right???). Somehow, some of my variables (1 out of 3) would not show up. I needed 3 vars to make a mysql-query. I fixed it by using $_REQUEST['var'] for just one variable, but for the other variables i did not use it and it works.

Deleting Files From A Server
As part of a project I want to allow users to save files to a server or delete files from a server. I have the uploader working fine, but i have no idea how i would delete the file from the server.

Uploading Files To A Web-server
So here's the deal; I'm hosting several people on a virtual server
running Linux (White Box Enterprise), each of which has an internet
presence. (Apache webserver.) They're also web novices. I want to
develop a method by which they can upload photos to a folder on the
server from their client computer, without having to use FTP, creating
the folder if necessary. This would be accessed from the client-side
from a signed applet. How could this be done, short of granting
univeral write access in the folder? Is there a way (for instance)
that a user can access their remote account with the rights of their
local user? I.E., as if they'd logged in via FTP? This should run as
quietly as possible, not requiring HTML forms and the like.

I'm new to Apache programming, so I'd appreciate any links to
possibilities for doing this, or any projects that've already done it.

Copying Files From One Server To Another
I am trying to set up a link excahnge program using php and I need to know how to copy a file from one server to another.

Does anyone know how i can do this. I have tried many things but nothing has workd so far.

Server Generated PDF Files?
Heres what I need to happen now, I know how to do most of it, except the generated PDF form.

- The server puts that information into a PDF file with a background of my chosing and emails it to a specified adress. (Its already set up to send the email)

My issue is I dont know how to have the server generate the PHP form. How does it work? How do I position the text over the PDF automatically?

I'm already donating $10 to the site, thanks to the help I received from UTAlan, Lytheum, and Waldir. Ill make it a total of $20 after this.

Selecting Files From Server With Php

Including Files In Remote Server
I have a perl script to grap headlines from slashdot and such for me, and I use corn to have it run hourly and put the headlines in a file on the linux server.

Now problem is that my site is sitting on a Windows 2000 Apache Server. So I can't seem to use include() to get the file into my page. Any suggestions or alternatives?

Delete Files On Server Using Browser
I have several php files in a folder. I would like to have the possibility of deleting these files using my browser, rather than having to log onto the server and do that.

Reason? I am dealing with a slightly slippery client, in case he changes the password after i have put the entire site on it, i would like to be able to delete my files, in case i get stiffed on the payment.

Would appreciate any pseudo code/code on getting this done, if possible.

Nobody User When Upload Files On Web Server
This time I've got a terrible big problem about
the interaction between a PHP application and the web server filesystem.

The PHP application has got many funtionalities, such as uploading small image or text documents, creating directories, and so on.
Once I log on the web server filesystem, I notice that
all the files have been uploaded correctly, but their ownership is of "nodody" user, "nobody" group and 754 permission.

I would like such files should have the same owner of the web files on the server, i.e. "pippo".

Moving Files On A Linux Server
I need to find a way of moving files on my linux server using PHP. Because of security the folders I am moving files to require you to be logged in as the super user.

Problem Using PHP For Server Files Redirect
We are trying to set up a PHP page to handle server requests for
individual web pages that we are moving to a new server. The part that
complicates this procedure is that the files will not be mirrored on the
new server. Instead many will be residing in new directories and
subdirectories than they were in on the old server.

What we wanted to do was when someone requested a specific page from our
old server, it would recognize the non-existent page and send it to the
redirect.php page that we created. That part works fine. Unfortunately,
PHP is unable to see what page originally was requested. I thought it
would see one page back, but it doesn't.

Is there any way to get the redirect.php to identify what the called for
page was so it can redirect it forward to the place the file resides in
on new server properly? I know this would be simple if this was from a
form but it's not.

Saving Uploading Files On The Server
i am about to start writing a script that uploads files to my server.
the code for the form i want to use is:

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="savefile.php"
method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="30000" />
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" />
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>

using the action script (savefile.php), how do i them save the file in
a folder on the server?

500 Server Error Loading Php Files W/iis
I'm sure this question has been asked many times, but I couldn't find a thread that related to my setup, so I have to ask. I have a Windows XP pro machine setup w/IIS 5.1. I've got html, perl, and asp pages setup and working fine. But for some reason, I keep getting a file not found/500 server error when I try to load a simple php file.

I tested the file in the command prompt and it outputted the results as expected, so I know it's not a php problem. I'm using the dll file that I copied into the windows/system folder to load the scripts and setup a application configuration and filter setting, and stopped/started IIS. Same error.

Script That Can Run Executable Files On A Server
I am looking for a script that can run Executable files on a server, I have leased a dedicated server but the company doesn't allow remote desktop access to it, so I can't run them, we have uploaded server files to a dedicated server but can't run them, they are exe files.

Required Files Confused Between Applications On Same Server
I'm running PHP 5.2.0 on my Windows XP laptop, running under IIS. I
have files named 'config.php' in two different web applications on
this machine, which are included throughout each via 'require' in one
and 'require_once' in the other.

When I attempt to use the two applications simultaneously, the file
which was 'require_once'-ed is also being accessed from the other
application, even though the two applications are isolated from each
other in IIS, and are in completely different directories on the
computer.

Uploading Mp3 Files To Folder On Server Via Php Form..
Im trying to design a webpage form in php that allows uploading of three mp3 files to a folder on my server.

Download Files From Remote Server To Local Webserver
I am trying to create a php page whereby people can download files from a remote server to their own server (to update their webdirectory with updated files/images etc). So for example one php page (e.g. update.php) should be able to download files from a remote server to a specific directory on their local webserver. Is this possible?

Making A Database Backup To Local Server And Upload Files To Another?
I want to make a script that backups the *.frm and *.MYD files to my server and I also want to upload those files to another server via FTP? I have a copy of the database files in the directory, that works fine. But my ftp part doesn't! PHP Code:

User Uploading Files To Load Balanced Server Cluster
This really is a file permissions problem ... although I'm not sure how
to solve it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I have a series of load balanced servers. Each of the servers is
arranged exactly the same and handles file uploads from users as
follows:

1) User submits file to www1 server
2) www1 server saves file with permissions showing user "www" is the
owner, dir owner is the group for the file ("sg" in this case).
3) cron script on www1 scp's the file to www2 server.

All of this works great up until the following happens ...

4) User resubmits the file to www2 server
5) www2 attempts to update file located on www2 server with new
version, but cannot modify file (attempting to overwrite a file owned
by sg/sg with a file to be owned by www/sg).
6) User continues to see old image, new image is not replicated

PHP Class/library Zipping Client Computer Files And Upload To Server
Can anyone suggest good PHP class/library that can zip client local
files and upload to the server? Single package is great as well as
separate packages.

Deleting A File From Server Through A File List
I've been having trouble with this for a while. Ages ago I made an upload script that lets you upload to files/upload/ and then once you upload it, a piece of PHP will show the files in that folder.

In the admin section of my page i'm trying to find a way to delete the files off the server without having to dig into the FTP and do it manually.
Are you able to do that with PHP? Code:

List Contents Of A Folder, Make List Of Links
Does anyone know how I can write a script that:

- reads in all the files in a particular directory
- displays the file names in a html list and makes a link of them:
<ul>
<li><a href="filelocation1">filename 1</li>
<li><a href="filelocation2">filename 1</li>
<li><a href="filelocation3">filename 1</li>
</ul>

etc.?

So basically it creates a list of links with the contents in that directory,
so you can download them from there.

Get List Of Messages From One Table, Message List Indicator From
I have two tables. One has a list of messages left by users using fields named mbxno for the mailbox and msgno for the message number. I have another table that has mailbox settings for each user that contains a field named "messagelist" to indicate if they want to be included on the message list or not.

What I'm trying to create is a list of the most-recent messages with a lookup on the users table to indicate whether a message in the list should be included in the message list based on the user's mailbox settings.

SELECT messages.msgno, messages.mbxno, users.messagelist FROM messages, users WHERE (users.messagelist = Ƈ') ORDER BY msgno DESC LIMIT 100

What I'm getting, though is a list that looks like this:

mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1

I think what's happening is that I'm using the wrong type of join and more rows are being created than necessary.

If I add "DISTINCT" to the query, I get a list of the most-recent messages as I expect, but the "messsagelist" value is sometimes wrong (again, probably because the data is getting jumbled). For example, the messagelist value for the second row (2214) should be 0, not 1.

mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2214 msgno: 0412141622 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2189 msgno: 0412141408 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0003 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2265 msgno: 0412132029 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412131950 msglist: 1

How should I be doing this? If nothing else, what kind of join will work with a long list compared to a value from a short list?
