Re: Review of a File Manager

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I certainly don't want ../ to be allowed. However for some reason the code is allowing '../', and './..', which leads to the same directory is denied. Every other folder returns the correct result, child folders are allowed, and parent folders are denied. Plus, when I upload...

Re: Review of a File Manager

Oops.....It would have helped if I placed that code after $dir_to_read was set..... Now I get different results: Directory NOT OK realpath: C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\filemgr\_notes dirname: C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\filemgr dir_to_read: ./_notes/ $_GET[DIR]: ./_notes Directory OK realpath: C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\f...

Re: Review of a File Manager

Here are the printouts of realpath($fs_dir) and dirname(__FILE__) under various directories: Directory: './' realpath($fs_dir): C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\filemgr dirname(__FILE__): C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\filemgr Directory '../' realpath($fs_dir): C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\filemgr dirname(__FILE__): C:\Apache2.2\ht...

Re: Review of a File Manager

Thanks for the tip pickle, but I can't seem to get it to work. Just as a test, I stuck this in at line 38 (refer to code on first post):   $fs_dir = dirname(__FILE__).$dir_to_read;  if(strpos(dirname(__FILE__),realpath($fs_dir)) === 0) {echo('Directory OK');}   No matter what the directory is, 'Dire...

Re: mailer form

I think you can use the ini_set() function for this.

You should be able to do something like this:

Code: Select all

 
ini_set  ("SMTP", server address);
ini_set  ("sendmail_from", email address you are sending from);

Re: Record date to MySQL using PHP

I think you have to use date("d-M-Y",time()) instead of current_time, I don't know if PHP uses it as it didn't work for me when I tried it. Regardless, you have to concatenate the date properly and put quotes around it:   $sql = "update contacts set " . "address='$address', ...

Re: Review of a File Manager

Thanks for taking a look at it PCSpectra. I just renamed it over ftp, but it is something that I do have to fix. (Check if index.php is under directory './', if so, hide it?) How could I check the location of the directory currently being viewed relative to the location of index.php (essentially the...

Use the function strpos() :   <?php     if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'Firefox') == false) {         //Code to execute when the user is not using Firefox     } else {         //Code to execute when the user is using Firefox     } ?>   I changed the code to search for 'Firefox' instead of '...

Re: PHP Code to detect users browser for simple uses

Are you aware of the of the $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] variable (I think that's the right one, if not look here: http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php for all the $_SERVER variables.) It basically returns a string that has the user's browser and version and some other info. IE i...

Re: Review of a File Manager

Yeah, I've been thinking about using AJAX for a little while, but it just seems like such a daunting task to try to implement it, especially since I've never used much of it before. Would the advantages really be worth the work?

Review of a File Manager

I know there are probably dozens of file managers out there that are ten times better than this one, but this is the first practical PHP application I have written, and I wanted to get some criticism from the community in terms of practicality, as I have a long list of features I want to add but am ...

Re: Font color for key based on modif date ?

Hi Peuplarchie, I played with the code you provided and got something working: The following will echo the date the given file ($file) was last modified, colored accordingly using CSS:   if (time() - filemtime($directory.$file) < 604800) {     echo '<span style="color:#DB1212;">'.$file.' w...
