Get Auth'd Username From IIS4 Challenge?
I'd like to setup some intranet pages that are personalized by user. However, I'd like to keep my users with one name/password that's dynamically updated in all "places" when they change their userame and password. Thus, I think I want to use IIS4's built in NT Domain auhentication.
Now, I know how to suck the current authenticated user in VBScript ASP code... is there any way to get this same info in PHP? Would a session variable be the way to go, putting the auth routines in ASP and then transfering the info to PHP with session vars? or something else "Secure"? I'm not a pro on session variables.

NT Installation (with IIS4)
After installing PHP on an NT we are having a few problems. First we can't seem to pull up files with the extension .html but the same files will work using the extension .phtml Is this normal for NT use? No big deal if so. Second, and most important, (in a PHP program that does work on another server) I am getting the following error from pages that use ' if ($submit) '. ************************** Warning: Undefined variable: submit in includes/product.inc on line 20 ************************** The program does work correctly, it just gives this warning. What have we missed? Oh yea, we are also getting warnings referring to variables used in an email() at the end of the entire site. But the variables are coming through with the email.

Search Engine Challenge
I'm running a site with +20.000 articles. The articles (html files) are saved on the server as txt files. Alle other data (author, date, category and so on) are in a MySQL db. Before we had the articles put in the db also and then performed SQL queries for the search engine. But this is no longer feasable since there are too many articles and the db has gotten too big. The search engine does all of the db and the server cpu goes max. I'm looking for a php type search engine that automatically indexes the txt files, produces 1 index file with all indexed words + the id's of articles having those words. Like that the search script doesn't have to query all the articles (the whole db) anymore but just this one index file. Would be nice also if there would be possibility to have a blacklist of words (the, a,...) and other admin things.

Create My Own Auction Site Bored Need A Challenge
I am going to create my own auction site as a challenge. Its something I have wanted to do after learning how to create a small shopping cart. I intend to keep the database as small as possible, so I was thinking that storing the auction description in text files could be the way to go. Everything else would need to go in the database ie start time, end time, bids etc.... Do you think this is a good idea to store just Auction descriptions in text files. Is it not better to keep as much info out of the database as possible? When an auction id is called from the database it displays the info from the database but also opens the corresponding text file on the server the contains the description.

Simple Challenge - Working With Image Coordinates And Dynamic Linking.
(*** apologies for the X-Post, but I felt it was relevant to all the groups ***) I have a page with a large centre-aligned image on it. I want a functionality whereby users can click their mouse on any point in this image and it would then show a virtual mouse pointer at the place where they clicked it. If they were to click somewhere else, the position of the virtual cursor would change. The position of the cursor needs to dynamically generate a link and display it in a form field text edit box. If that link is then viewed separately, it would launch the same page with the virtual mouse pointer at the location where the original person placed it. Basically I want to be able to have one guy point to a location on the image for the benefit of another guy, but graphically as opposed to relying on written explanation. I can run CGI and PHP scripts if need be. Easy-peasy, or can of worms?

A Real Challenge For Real PHP Programmers
<?php /* A challenge to every PHP programmer.The one who's gonna solve this problem would be deemed as PSP(PHP Supreme Programmer).The problem is this : You have to write a script that displays a list of categories and subcategorieslike this one: <select name="category"> <option value="1">Main</option> <option value="2">Main > Computers</option> <option value="4">Main > Computers > Hardware </option> <option value="8">Main > Computers > Hardware > PC</option> <option value="7">Main > Computers > Hardware > Mac</option> <option value="9">Main > Computers > Hardware > Atari</option> <option value="11">Main > Computers > Hardware > PC > History of Pc</option> <option value="">etc...</option> </select> The categories and subcategories details are stored in these two tables in a MySQL database. -categories : the categories names and ids. -cat_relations : the relations between categories.It shows which subcategory belongs to which category. The belongings between categories can go very deep and the number of categories is unlimited. This script will create the two tables and fill them with sample data. All you need to do is to change the four variables below. You can send the script back to this email : yasbergy@yahoo.com. */ //Here starts the script. Please change the values of these variables to fit your settings $user = "prospective_PSP"; $database = "db"; $server = "localhost" ; $pwd = "" ; //Connection to the database that you created mysql_connect($server,$user,$pwd) ; mysql_select_db($database); //Creation of the two tables : categories and cat_relations $categories = " CREATE TABLE `categories` (`id` INT not null AUTO_INCREMENT, `name` VARCHAR(100) not null , PRIMARY KEY (`id`), INDEX (`id`), UNIQUE (`id`)) comment = 'The categories details' "; mysql_query($categories) ; $cat_relations = "CREATE TABLE `cat_relations` (`id` INT not null AUTO_INCREMENT, `daughter_id` INT not null, `mother_id` INT not null , PRIMARY KEY (`id`), INDEX (`id`), UNIQUE (`id`)) comment = 'Which category is the daughter of which category'"; mysql_query($cat_relations) ; //Filling the two tables with sample data $cats = array('Main','Computers','Countries','Hardware','S oftware','Programming languages','Mac','PC','Atari','Winamp','History of the PC','IBM','Components','High level','USA','NYC','LA','Manhattan','India','Winzi p'); for ($i=0;$i<count($cats);$i++){ $sql = mysql_query("insert into categories (name) values('".$cats[$i]."')"); } mysql_query("insert into cat_relations (daughter_id,mother_id) values (2,1),(3,1),(4,2),(5,2),(6,2),(7,4),(8,4),(9,4),(1 1,8),(12,8),(13,8),(10,5),(20,5),(14,6),(15,3),(16 ,15),(17,15),(18,16),(19,3)"); //Now you can have a look on them through phpMyAdmin ?>

Only One Session Per Username, But How?
I am developing a small database which users will have to log in with a username and password, which is checked against a MySql database. I am using sessions which will end when they either hit the log out button or close their browser. Everything works fine so far, but I can't figure out a good way of making sure if a username is currently logged in (has a session open) that no one else can log in using that username. Would adding a column to the database and querying the database to see if they are logged in be the best, or is there an easier way with sessions that I just don't know about. The issue with using a database by switching a simple yes/no column, would be if they close their browser or computer freezes, they try to log in but can't because the database was never reset.

Username Generator
I’m going to be creating a username generator that gives you a few usernames you could use, based on the one you asked to have but was taken. For example, when you signup for a hotmail account and the e-mail address you specified is already taken, it gives you a few choices to pick from based on DOB, age, etc., or create your own custom one again. The thing I’m going to be making is very similar. Instead stead of generating some names based on your DOB, age, etc. it will just give some names with numbers added on, or whatever the guy I’m making it for wants it to operate. Like I enter in Epsilon and it is taken, it then gives me something like Epsilon2002 (Based on the current year), Epsilon_, Epsilon- and so on.

Username And Password
I've got this 'helpdesk' application where people can simply fill out a form and send it off. Each time they have to type in their name, phone number and email address- then answer the questions that they're having problems with. I'd rather store that common non-variable info in a database and pull it out so that they don't have to type it in each time. Is this possible without issuing each individual their own username/password? Or would it be best to have each person log in one time and create their own accounts? Before I just had 3 or 4 general usernames/passwords that the organization members used. I'm trying to keep confusion down to a minimum here. Would it be feasible to have them log in with their last name and pull the information based on that- or there must be another way.
