I will be getting my own dedicated server soon and while I have a functional knowledge of the concepts of Linux, I don’t know everything. Will my server be reasonably secure if I am sure to keep everything updated and patched (assume there are no PHP scripts vulnerable to SQL injection etc.)

Ok, so i have a lot of different php scripts like user management, shopping cart, forums. I don’t want my customers to have to sign-up multiple times for my website. I need to know how to do this.

Thanks A lot

I have a php form that sends the information to a page that displays all the results in a nice html page. I need for the server to convert the result page to a pdf and then send it to an email. I think there is a way to do this without installing any files onto the server but I have forgot what the php function is that does this. How would I go about doing this?

I’m trying to get the hang of using php, and usually when learning a new language I like to look at working examples. I’ve found various php scripts in order to do this, but many do not work in the way their descriptions suggest. So, i wanted to know, is their any way for me to view php code inserted in a web page without the owner/programmers actually giving me access?

I am looking to host a website and use various PHP scripts. The hosting site that I am looking at offers "CGI based PHP"? What does that mean for me? Does that mean I cannot embed PHP into my web pages? Do I have to put all PHP scripts into the cgi-bin?

I have a need to host some web sites, and have been trying to do so with an evaluation copy of Server 2k3. And while I have been able to get more than a few simple sites up, I am having trouble doing anything advanced, like setting up a simple in and out bound mail server, or getting PHP scripts to run.

One option I am considering is seeing if there is a SIMPLE (meaning totally newby friendly) Linux build that might work.

Does anyone have a recommendation on a Linux build that would include a web server, mail server and php compiler (or whatever the appropriate term is) that someone who has NEVER used linux could install, configure through some sort of reasonable "wizard," plug source files into and then go from there?

Thanks in advance!

For example… I do the mysql connect php mysql connect scripts before the display scripts (using macromedia dreamweaver) how can I move to an specific location to fit on the fields on the background form.
