note 55840 added to features.file-upload.put-method

A Case Study: To set up publishing with Netscape 7.2 Composer to Apache/PHP, no need to use CGI (which I tried unsuccessfully for too long) or to alter Apache's httpd.conf. I needed only to click Publish As, fill in put2disk.php as the filename (where its contents are the below), and fill in that file's dir as the "Publishing address". XAMPP 1.4.14: Apache/2.0.54 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.0.54 OpenSSL/0.9.7g PHP/5.0.4. <? // filename: put2disk.php. //file_put_contents ("get_def.out", print_r (get_defined_vars(), TRUE)); // debugging // Two slurp methods: (a) didn't work, (b) did. //$stdin_rsc = fopen("php://input", "r"); //$putdata=''; //while ($putdata .= fread($stdin_rsc, 1024)); // a. Hangs the "Publishing..." dialog. //while (!feof($stdin_rsc)) $putdata.=fread($stdin_rsc, 8192); // b. Worked, but file_get_contents is faster. //fclose($stdin_rsc); // All that's nec: $putdata=file_get_contents('php://input'); // Not php://stdin! (When the ability to see error messages isn't available, the doc (this manual page) needs to be more accurate.) file_put_contents("stdin.out",$putdata); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.put-method.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55840 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55840&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55840&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55840&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55840&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55840&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55840&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55840&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
