I've seen many Linux tools that use weather.com weather data.
www.wunderground.com told me it was possible to do it from weather.com

And I've asked weather.com webmaster the authorization.
They did'nt answer clearly yet.

Stay in touch.

The module is 100% PHP.
No external command line, no wget, lo lynx.
Try this PHP file


<?

echo gethostbyname("www.weather.com");

$handle=fopen("http://www.weather.com/","r");

while(!feof($handle)) {

   $buf=fgets($handle,2048);

   echo htmlspecialchars($buf);

}

close($handle);

?>

This should print the IP: 63.111.66.11
and a HTML source code.

If not then you have some DNS resolving problem with your
host server.

I just got the same pb 2 weeks ago, the host server admin had modified some configurations and now it works for me.

OH cool.
The sanitization can be done in a loop before a request.

Yeah that's right to.
But I'm so lazy that I find tedious to do things such as
$sql="select * from table where name='".$_p["name"]."' order by id;";

I would prefer
$sql="select * from table where name='$p_name' order by id;";

Register Globals OFF - A suggestion on how to by pass

It is sometime tiring to use $HTTP_POST_VARS and $HTTP_GET_VARS to access variable passed by URLs of forms.

Few couple of minutes ago, I got an idee and wanted to discussed it.

The eval() function is used to evaluate a string as PHP commands. This mean you can create a string dynamically and evaluate it.

So you can recreate the function that Register Globals is calling when set to ON.

You can also add a prefix to each variable so you can tell which are POST and which are GET variables.


$post_prefix="p_";

$get_prefix="g_";

$cmd="";

while(list($key,$val)=each($HTTP_GET_VARS)) {

        $cmd.="$".$get_prefix.$key."="".$val."";";

}

while(list($key,$val)=each($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {

        $cmd.="$".$post_prefix.$key."="".$val."";";

}

eval($cmd);

$p_address could then be the Address field of a form sent by POST method.

$g_action could be the variable sent via the URL.

This can also be used to port some PHP script that do not require high security level. Setting


$post_prefix="";

$get_prefix="";

will avoid you to pass by $HTTP_POST_VARS or $HTTP_GET_VARS
