Anyone have a PHP4 server handy?

Legacy Dynamo
1

I have a little script that will do directory listings, and I’ve
built in a compatibility layer for PHP4, but I have no way to test it.

Can anyone help?

Hi Walter,

I could help there, but only on my local Mac, as that is where I do testing using MAMP Pro.

If you have MAMP installed, you can choose between PHP4 and PHP5 in the PHP panel when MAMP starts up.

If you mean and online live server using PHP4, then I’m sorry, I can’t help there. Hopefully someone else will be able to help.

Hi Walter,

Just replied by email. I forgot to add that in the PHP5 version, I tried clicking one of the links to the files and it threw up an error.

Safari can’t open the page “http://localhost/test/file1%20copy%202.txt” because it can’t find the server “localhost”.

It looks like the PHP code is not allowing for the port addition (:8888) to the local URL, this may, or may not be a problem on a live server.

It’s a MAMP thing, I’ll see if I can shim it.

Try editing the part that begins with //base for all links with this:

//base for all links
$port = ($_SERVER[‘SERVER_PORT’] != ‘80’) ‘:’ . $_SERVER
[‘SERVER_PORT’] : ‘’;
$base = ‘http://’ . $_SERVER[‘SERVER_NAME’] . $port . dirname($_SERVER
[‘REQUEST_URI’]) . ‘/’;

Or rather:

$port = ($_SERVER[‘SERVER_PORT’] != ‘80’) ? ‘:’ . $_SERVER
[‘SERVER_PORT’] : ‘’;

Hi Maccie,
Hopefully we got everything sorted out last night.
Walter will give a definitive answer on that though.

Yes, I think it’s all sorted out. I put a couple of hours into making it an Action yesterday, but there’s this last wrinkle that I haven’t figured out yet. More of an interface/workflow problem than anything else.
