Unable to download files

Marcu Alin — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 12:00:27 -0000

I'm unable to download any file, upload works ok

It could be that i'm using https on non-standard port something like "https://my.server.com:19944/nav/"

Thank You

initial test page

Paul Wratt — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 04:06:08 -0000

When index.php loads it can check for an "switch" file, say "tested.txt", it it is NOT there, it can then run an initial TEST page, similar to the server info link at the bottom of the panel, to show weather or not certain things can be done, and the resulting output can be stored in the tested.txt file, either for reference, or to be attached to a bug or error related query by the user (or at least they can cut and paste the contents to show what php knows about).

This can also be used to test the authentication as well as GZIP. Some windows GZIP algorithims are faulty, and hence the new WWW_PAGE_OPEN and WW_PAGE_CLOSE functions need to be used, as they can compensate for this by reducing the compression level from 9 to 5, which DOES work on a buggy algorithim

As a result, a mechanism to automatically modify the "config.php" should be implemented too, and an alternative login system needs to be created, maybe an encoded timestamp can be tagged into a cookie, or tagged into the default form data (however this would require rewriting most of thefile based functions, so a cookie system would be simpler)

seperate download access for big files

Paul Wratt — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 03:50:09 -0000

By createing a hidden IFRAME tag, downloads on a slow connection, or files larger than can be sent in 30 seconds (PHP timeout limit), can be downloaded, and not affect the interface as a result..

Ajax Object

Paul Wratt — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 02:09:17 -0000

Any issues with Ajax are derived from having only one "transport" object.

Upon reviewing AjaxRequest.js, I would suggest the following:
AjaxObj.tooltip - because they are serial (linear) in requests (that is one object for ALL requests)
one object per file type request, or (as AjaxRequest does) a dynamic Ajax.req that does multiple requests at the same time..

This avoids any tooltip "transport" getting inthe way of a "more priority" file/folder "transport" request

This moves into the realm of "reasons for a complete rewrite", but its not as "major" as it sounds..

.. unless you are going to do funky "cant delete because Ajax is waiting for a create file reply" type checks

issue with file delete

Paul Wratt — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 01:58:48 -0000

I found a "return delet(f)" in the printbuttons() function, this may be a contibuting issue to deleting files but it should not interfere

file rename problems with \"&,+ and \\ \"

Paul Wratt — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 00:20:00 -0000

the variable that catches the "newname" just need to have "escape()" applied to it in the JS before being sent to rename.php.

Unfortunately there needs to be 4 "escape()"s added & 3 ammends to the "if" statements of "rename(f)", "newfolder(f)" and "newfile(f)" (the "if" ammends are to catch spaces at the beginning of a filename, which is illegal)

Even more unfortunate is the fact that once you allow escapeable charcters into file & folder name, you must also escape them EVERYWHERE you send them as form data, AND everywhere they are retrieved as form data, and there is still a problem of " " and "+" being escaed as "%20", which would need a workaround ..

Either you leave it out altogether, or you change ALL data send and recieve's

warning.gif not a GIF (but a PNG)

Paul Wratt — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 23:46:41 -0000

the "warning.gif" is actually a .PNG which is why there is a black background in IE (which can NOT handle alpha channel in ANY image)

I have converted this image, although I had to do some pixel work ont, so it is not as "good looking" as the original, which could just be saved out as a gif from a decent art package

editor.php has short_open_tag (File not found Error)

Anonymous — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 16:04:12 -0000

editor.php has some short open tags. I have short_open_tag disabled in php.ini so this is a problem for me.

It is best practice to use <?php not <?

Also newfolder.php has a typo on line 15. There should be a space between allready.

Keep up the great work!

Text error.

When uploading a file, it works correctly. When it´s done, you get a message.

But you don´t get status when deleting alot of files or unzipping alot of files, you have to update manually.

This is tested in FF 2.0 and with IE7.
