Shouldn’t you unlink() the tempfile so as not to have a bunch of unused files laying around in your file system?

1. Yes. The first request sets the cookie.
2. Not sure, but I think it does it automatically.

Comment on Javascript Sleep Function by therealdealsince1982

I have searched/googled quite a few webpages on javascript sleep/wait… and there is NO answer if you want javascript to “RUN, DELAY, RUN”… what most people got was either, “RUN, RUN(useless stuff), RUN” or “RUN, RUN + delayed RUN”….

So I ate some burgers and got thinking:::
here is a solution that works… but you have to chop up your running codes…:::

replace <.. with < to run..
//…………………………………..
//example1:

DISPLAY

//javascript sleep by “therealdealsince1982″; copyrighted 2009
//setInterval
var i = 0;

t=setInterval(”run()”,1000);

//………………………………
//example2:

DISPLAY

//javascript sleep by “therealdealsince1982″; copyrighted 2009
//setTimeout
var i = 0;

function flow() {
run(i);
i++; //code segment finished running, increment i; can put elsewhere
sleep(1000);
if (i==5) {clearTimeout(t);} //stops flow, must be after sleep()
}

function sleep(dur) {t=setTimeout(”flow()”,dur);} //starts flow control again after dur

flow(); //starts flow

//……………………………….
//example3:

DISPLAY

//javascript sleep by “therealdealsince1982″; copyrighted 2009
//setTimeout, switch
var i = 0;

function flow() {
switch(i)
{
case 0:
run(i);
sleep(1000);
break;
case 1:
run(i);
sleep(2000);
break;
case 5:
run(i);
clearTimeout(t); //stops flow
break;
default:
run(i);
sleep(3000);
break;
}
}

function sleep(dur) {t=setTimeout(”flow()”,dur);} //starts flow control again after dur

flow(); //starts flow control for first time…

hi,

File on another host… calling form http://localhost/test.php
—————————————————————————————-
$url =”http://localhost/taiba/tfcsadmcp/index.php”;
$reffer = ‘http://localhost/taiba/tfcsadmcp/index.php’;
$cookie_file_path = getcwd().”/tfcsadmcp/_files/cookie.txt”;
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 0);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, 0);
//curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_REFERER, $reffer);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie_file_path);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie_file_path);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, TRUE);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIE, session_name() . ‘=’ . session_id());
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, “username=admin&password=323123&pageaction=login&”);
$data = curl_exec ($curl);
$signupStr=getSignupString($data);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL,”http://localhost/taiba/tfcsadmcp/index.php?component=cman&page=wce.gall.php”);//set this URL to wherever the form submits to
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie_file_path);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie_file_path);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST,1);//yes we want to post
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$signupStr);//tell it where to find our sign up string
$data=curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);//close the session

echo $data;

NOTE: But I can’t access another pages after i login.. only the calling page i can access and the target web is using cookies and session.
Login is working prefect..

Comment on Javascript Sleep Function by Al

This is a terrible implementation. The while loop will completely dominate the CPU and hang the browser until sleep is done. On Firefox, if you sleep for longer than 5 or 10 seconds, this will cause an ugly warning dialog because the browser will think the script is stuck in an infinite loop.

There is no JavaScript sleep() function. (Which I find to be a huge flaw with the langauge.) Instead, you should use setTimeout(). Google “JavaScript sleep” to find what other people have said on this topic, but a loop that polls the current time is NOT what you want.
