Yeah, appears the server was compromised again. I've removed the problematic code/issues but unfortunately I can't take back the emails that were already sent.

Welcome to the site and thanks for the warm reception.

You can get a toolbar with no apps, but to get the pretty icon resizing bit you are referring to, you need a program like y'z dock.

You ARE using windows xp right? It should be there...

If you received an email or two from bfarber.com today, please be aware we did NOT authorize those emails to be sent, and the links contained in the email link to a malicious site that tries to download an exe file.

Please do NOT click those links, and delete the emails immediately.

We are working to protect our members against the actions this user apparently took.

Thank you!

Hello,

I just got thee same emails and I assure you we did not send them. It appears our admin control panel was hacked. I'll post a news announcement shortly and remove that link.

Sorry for the troubles.

I'm working on it. No date or deadline, but sometime in the near future hopefully. It all depends on how busy I get, or stay, over the next month...

Thx.

Welcome to the site!

Hello....this is an end-all debate really.

Firstly, replace backticks ` - they're used in XSS attacks.
Replace hex entities, they are almost never used for valid reasons, so assume if you see them they are XSS attacks. By hex entities, I mean like

k

Yes, you can do html entities that way, and IE parses them....

Also, any characters that would ever be used for bbcode should probably get replaced, or they can break bbcode.

i.e. [ ] | ' " ;

and so on.

It's very hard to say the right combination. Just be careful of what you DO allow...

It wouldn't be UIFILE, it would be the section in Resedit that says Strings. Go to the line that says 106, expand it, go to 1033 (English table) and find the values posted.

Ok, here's what IPB basically does...

it only SHOWS users that have been active in the last 15 minutes (settable in the ACP).

it DELETES users who haven't been active in over an hour (when the task runs).

My recommendation = put into your configuration settings for both. Then, anyone you give/sell this to, can't really complain because they have the control. Something like:

Session: Time of inactivity before the user will not be shown as 'Online'

Session: Time of inactivity before the user's session will be deleted completely

Welcome to the site. Hope you enjoy all that is to offer.

Writing the template files you wouldn't want to do str_replace. What you'd do is store the new data in the db (since it sounds like you are using that method) and then pull all the functions for one skin file and write them to the flat file at once.

You wouldn't really be replacing a function in the skin file, but rather just generating a new file with the most up to date content.

XML with PHP is trickier than I thought originally, but once you get the hang of it it's not too bad.

The & symbol forces a reference of a variable, array, or object rather than copying it.

If you do

$test = $somevar;

then $somevar is copied over to test. This means changes to either one do not affect the other. If you do this instead

$test =& $somevar;
(or $test = &$somevar; - the & can be against the = sign or the variable or have a space between either)

then you are making $test a reference of $somevar. This uses less memory, however if you edit $test, it edits $somevar as well. This can be desirable at times. You want to use references when possible because it uses a LOT less memory to make a reference to something than to actually copy it over to a new variable. This is especially true for objects.

You can't make a bitmap invisible (bmp's don't support alpha-transparency) however in most of the resource files, if you use magenta (255,0,255 RGB code), the magenta areas are drawn invisibly.

Hmm, neither did I. I would try avoiding doing this change in the registry with that being the case. Mess one thing up in there, whole system can be rendered useless.

It means to save the bmp file into the kernel. The instructions for that are in the tutorial. You use reshacker for that step.

It's a folder on the C:\ drive, and it was winnt on other versions of Windows, but note that these instructions *only* work for Windows XP.

To use Logon Loader just install it and point it to the directory where your logons are. Doesn't matter if you install it before or after you download the logon screens.

Sorry it took so long to reply, but here are the answers to your questions.

You should output everything after all script execution is done. Not during shutdown (if you are using register_shutdown_func for anything) of course, but after everything else in your script is done.

Best bet I've found is to do this at the end of each of your source files like IPB. This allows you to process anything you need to process in your source files and then output it, or not output anything in the case of a redirection. You could put the output call in your index file if you wanted though, as it would essentially work the same.

Great thing is, it doesn't matter. As long as the name you set with
<<<NAME

is the same one you use with the

NAME;

call, it's fine. You can put anything you want, those two lines just have to match. The traditional usage though, is the letter o (stands for End of Function).



I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but if you mean pull content from one function, then overwrite that content rather than append it, what you should do is when this *could* happen, save the content of your output to a different variable temporarily, and then when you have decided you don't need to overwrite it, THEN assign it to your main output variable. Like this

$temp_output = $skin->templates['global']->whatever_func();

//you've decided to overwrite it here

$temp_output = $skin->templates['global']->diff_func();

// No more need to overwrite it

$func->output .= $temp_output;

You need to sniff for them to do this (for either solution). You have to match the user-agent against the ones bots use, and there are litterally like millions. Of course you could just limit this to the commone ones (like google, msn, slurp, yahoo, etc.).



All the @ symbol does is repress warnings. It doesn't repress fatal errors or anything like that, but it will stop a warning from displaying on the screen.

Yeah, it kind of helps knowing what you need help with.

It also kind of helps if you give more than 5 minutes for an answer.
