Get Localhost - Very Simple
This is a very simple question I think, but I can't find a straight answer from the php documentation. What is the function or variable that I can use to get localhost information?

Something Simple!? Sessions - Admin.localhost To Main.localhost
Why does the following code allow me to keep the same session when in the same sub domain (ie admin.localhost), yet not when I goto another related domain eg main.localhost? I would like to have the same session on the related domain. I bet the solution is really simple <grin>!... Using IE6. Win NT, Apache 1.3.27, PHP 4.3.2. php.ini file - shown at end of message (apologies for length).. is actually a copy of a PHP4.3.0 ini file (problem here?) hosts file in windows: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.1 admin.localhost 127.0.0.1 main.localhost httpd.conf setup for VirtualHosts eg ServerName admin.localhost.com // session_test.php -- located in admin.localhost <? session_start(); echo "id is " . session_id(); ?> a href="http://admin.localhost/session_test1.php" next a href="http://main.localhost/session_test2.php" next // session_test1.php -- located in admin.localhost <? session_start(); echo "id is " . session_id(); ?> // session_test2.php -- located in main.localhost <? session_start(); echo "id is " . session_id(); ?>

Simple Script For Doing A Simple Photo Album And Journal?
I'm looking to quickly get a photo album online. Very simple, thumbnails, a few pages, maybe a description, but hopefully a small script that's easy to edit and work into my existing site. I know about hot scripts, etc. but I was wondering if any one could recommend one? Secondly, I also want to setup a journal. It's not really a "blog" although I guess blog software may work. But it isn't going to be a message board or anything like that. Just a place to put out random bits of news. Once again, same premise, I'm trying to find the most simple script possible that could basically traverse a directory of simple textfiles and produce a list. I know all about Blosxom and stuff like that, but I'd like a script that just did the above and didn't overtake my site like PHPNuke or something like that. I'll probably roll my own, but I thought I'd check first.

Simple Simple String Question
When I take the input from a textarea and insert it into a mysql-base and then retrieve it and show it, all the line feeds/breaks are gone. It is shown as one giant string. How can this be fixed, so the text will be shown as it was entered? Does it have something to do with stripslashes/addslashes or am I way off?

Re Localhost
I'm trying to find out what an absolute path to localhost on my computer would be... On the web, I understand it to be something like this '/home/users/myUsername/public_html/includes/myFile.php', but what about if PHP and apache are installed on a PC? Or could it just be the windows path to the localhost folder?

PHP Mail - Localhost
Using PHP 4 on Win 95 with Apache. I would like to test the PHP mail function without going to the net using localhost. The system works fine in parsing and returning a HTML form. What do I need to change in order to have the mail locally sent to NS 4.7 or Outlook Express? The PHP INI file mail function is SMTP = localhost send_mail from = myaddress@alaska.net What mail address should be used in the PHP part of the mail form? mail($to, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders) as $to = "localhost"; ?? I receive the following message back: Warning: Failed to Connect in c:phpweb/form.php on line 18. Line 18 is the above mail($10..... which seems to indicate that it can not find the server or the path to the server. Please let me know what to alter so that localhost will send the PHP email to the appropriate email client w/o going on the net. i.e. it works just fine when using the net, but local testing would be better.

Cookies On Localhost, How?
I am learning how to set a cookie with php. I have the following code at the top of my page: setcookie("user", "name", time()+3600, "/", "", 0); this works but i would like to know where the cookie is in my cookies folder. Its not named localhost, my computers name or my ip address. What would it be called if you don't set a domain name? Also, is this the right way to set a cookie on local host? I tried putting localhost as my domain but since i'm using xp and ie6 it doesn't work.

Mozilla, Localhost
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a problem on my end. All of a sudden, I've run into a problem with Mozilla serving up a certain PHP file. Any PHP file on my server will work fine, except for one that contains: <?php phpinfo(); ?> The confusing part to all of this is that the file will output properly ONLY if I don't call it using: "http://localhost/phpinfo.php". If I use "127.0.0.1" or any other DNS, it will serve up properly. But when trying to access it via "localhost", Mozilla prompts me on what to do with the file-type, as it does not know how to handle that file-type.

Localhost, PHP And Email
I am running Apache and PHP on "localhost" (ie. offline), is there a way to setup PHP to run scripts which may use the mail facility of PHP so that if a script is supposed to send an email - it sends an email rather than choak (so you don't know for sure the script actually works until you upload and test online)?

Php Not Working With 'localhost'
When I run a php file in my browser using an IP address, it renders just fine. But when I run the php file using 'localhost', it renders the source code. It's as if it does not recognize it as php. There are other variables, but I don't want to make a full page post. In a nutshell: (http://192.130.0.230/~username/file.php) works (http://localhost/~username/file.php) does not work.

Accessing Localhost
Foxserv is a program that makes installation a breeze. I simply want to setup Foxserv so that I can edit dynamic websites locally. The program installed without a hitch, but when I went to access http://localhost/ (for the Foxserv menu), I was asked for a username/password in an authentication screen. It looked like the URL was redirected to http://localhost/localstart.asp. I believe localstart.asp is related to IIS...right? I don't see why it would automatically redirect itself there. Or why IIS would even come into play for that matter. In Opera, it also mentions something about ccd.mydomain.com in 'comments'...I REALLY can't imagine why my domain would have anything to do with it.

Mysql: Localhost
Whenever I connect to a mysql database, I always connect to 'localhost'. Does that mean that you can connect to a database on another host? If you can, does that mean that I could use the same database for both of my websites (which are hosted with different people)? And if you can, how please? I assume that I would have to create another mysql user, but how would I connect to the database?

FTP And Localhost Security
I'm eye-brows deep into a CMS project that's using PHP on the server, and am trying to find out some definitive info on using PHP's FTP functions and the impact that this will have on security. My Question: Does ftp'ing on localhost (transferring a file or changing permissions on the same machine) constitute a security issue? Its clear to me that any ftp op over the net is inherently insecure (as user+pass, etc are transmitted in clear text), but need to find out if using ftp just on the localhost also suffers from this weakness. Not sure how someone would be able to sniff the packets if all was happening on localhost, but would be nice to *know* and not guess

Localhost Cookies
On localhost I set my cookies with following code: setcookie('cookiename', 'secret', time()+26297, '/', false); As you can see, Im passing a boolean false as my domain parameter as browsers don't like domains with less than 2 dots and this is the way to bypass it. The only thing wrong with this method is the cookie is not available to localhost subdomains.

Localhost Constant
I am currently migrating servers and after installing PHP/MySQL I am getting problems with any scripts that attempt a database connection along the lines of: PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant localhost - assumed 'localhost' in /var/www/html/database.php on line XX. I realise that the fix is to add quotes around each usage of localhost, but as we are hosting many websites for different users who all use the unquoted form of localhost, I would rather set it up as a constant again. why did localhost function as a constant on my old installation (Fedora - MySQL - 4.0.27-standard / PHP 4.3.10), but not on my new installation (Centos - MySQL - 4.1.20 / PHP 4.3.9).

Localhost And Server
I am currently developing on a windows XP machine and upload my code via subversion to a linux server. All was great, until I just tried to test out using Zend Studio. if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']=="127.0.0.1") { $base_path="../path/"; } else { $base_path="/home/account/public_html/path/"; } Zend studio didn't like 'REMOTE_ADDR' - Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR, which then meant it couldn't include any files and fell over. I am also having problems using cookies and sessions. if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']=="127.0.0.1") { session_set_cookie_params(7200); } else { session_set_cookie_params(7200, '/', '.example.com'); }

Localhost Testing Speed
I'm currently testing my PHP scripts in two locations. The first is my workplace, where I am using Windows 2000 SP4, and IIS. The other location is my home, where I also use Windows 2000 SP4 and IIS. The problem, is that when I run PHP scripts on my work PC, it takes a couple of seconds to display the page. But when I do exactly the same script at home, it is near instant. Are there any configuration changes I should make to IIS or something which may be different. The only real difference between the two machines, is that my work one is on a corporate LAN.

Why Is Localhost Added To All My Links ?
Not sure if this is a php, mysql, or apache issue. I use win2k and I have AMP on my system as a localhost. I use this to test PHP/MYSQL scripts I write on my local PC. I render a URL w/PHP by reading the URL string from a mysql field, eg. on the php web page it shows as eg. www.yahoo.com link But when I click the link I see that "localhost" is added to the URL and it goes nowhere. ie. it get localhost added to the front - localhost/www.yahoo.com Is there a setting somewhere so that the link is exactly what the link is and localhost is not added.

Sessions Only Work On Localhost
I've created a website using Win2000 & apache. The site works fine there. I than wanted to move the website on a redhat8 server (using it in a production envoronment), but there I am getting trouble with the sessions I use in the site. The problem is on the redhat localhost, sessions works fine, but throughout the office network (using win2000 machines) pages don't work because it appears that sessions contain no data or 'wrong' data. E.g., A user enters a certain area of the website (the areas I organized using directories). Everytime a user enters a particular direcory I set up a sessions for the user in default.php of the specific directory. I do this because I want the user to enter a directory through the directory's default.php. I create a sesion called $_SESSION['areasection']=", and give it the value of the directory (a,b,c,d,e,...) example: Code:

Problem Running PHP On Localhost
I have installed Apache and PHP (and MySQL) on my own computer so that I can test out my scripts without having to keep uploading them to my ISP.

This works fine when I upload it to the server at my ISP (when I type something in the box, it is displayed back to me) but when I run it on my own system, I get nothing. I can see the value in the querystring in the address bar of my browser, but the $eek variable does not seem to be being set. Is there something I need to enable in PHP or Apache to make this work? <HTML> <BODY> <?php echo $eek; ?> <FORM> <INPUT name=eek> </FORM> </BODY> </HTML>

Cannot Connect To Localhost Using GoDaddy
I'm (trying) to help a friend setup a MySQL db and use some simple scripts on a site hosted with GoDaddy. I note that GoDaddy appears to use Microsoft. I have done this: $connection = mysql_connect("localhost","mydatabase","password") or die ("Couldn't connect to server."); $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM dummy"); $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql); echo $row['name']; ?> on several Apache servers and it always seems to work. I created the MySQL database using the GoDaddy control panel (which is very confusing and poor IMO). I dove into phpAdmin and was able to do stuff. But I can't get php to connect.
