Introduction
I needed a database for my link collection at Cable-Modems.Org that would display a "Yahoo-like" directory. First
thought was to sign up as a volunteer editor for the Open Directory Project and then just refer to "my" sub-category
there. Unfortunately the other editors would not let me structure the categories the way I think is right.
Enter phpHoo, a php3 script using MySQL, written by CDI and described in great detail at
www.webreference.com/perl/xhoo/php1/ as a complete php3 tutorial. Unfortunately no management interface was available.
Be sure to read the tutorial, as this is really all the explanation you need in order to use and modify this code.
See http://www.cable-modems.org/phpHoo for full story. |

Added phphoo2.php3 to original phpHoo directory.
Change mysql.php3 to point to your modified mysql.php3.
Created the new Tables in MySQL: MyCategories and MyLinks.
Is there anythig else that needs to be done because I
couldn`t get it to work.
Thanks.

I do not really intend to use this as a support feature - or spend a lot of time supporting phpHoo2 at all -
but rather prefer you guys to find your problems yourself and then tell the world how you fixed them! But
yes, you need to fill in the name of your database, password etc. to make it work. Run though the original
phpHoo tutorial and make sure you understand everything - then proceed to phpHoo2.

I couldn`t get either the original or second version to
write to the database. It might work but neither
developers responded to emails. Also, when using the
phphoo2 script and the password section, if you get a
cookie error, open both files up and delete any extra
charater spaces below the last line in the file. The
source code I got had them in there and prevented the
cookies from working. But it really doesn`t matter since
I never got the rest of the script to work.... If anyone
knows a solution, I`d like to hear it.

Well, I got the original phphoo to work pretty fast. Then I
went on and added the phphoo2 things. And I heard from
quite a few happy phphoo2 users - so trust me: you can
do it!

I have problems with line 68 : print " > <a href=\"$PHP_SELF\">phpHoo2</a>";
It repeat the url and I have something like that : http://my.site/my.site/directory/phpHoo2.php3
Do you know if there is a forum for phpHoo2 users ?
Thanks for this useful tool.

What I`d really want from PhpHoo is that submissions to
the Top Level of the link direcorty is not allowed.

I was having the same problem as Philippe, along with
the script not accepting any form input. I discovered a
neat little trick from my "PHP Essentials" book. My
hosting company has php loaded as a cgi instead of a
module. This in and of its self wasn`t a problem...but
when they loaded it they had "track vars" turned off. I
putt <?php_track_vars?> at the top of my script in the
phpHoo2.php3 file right before the <?php line, and
pretty much everything started working.
I`m still having problems with the disapprove and edit
links showing up on all of my listings when I`m not in
admin mode. Any ideas???

Has anyone incorperated banners into this project?
Answers:
If you see the listings to approve, that is because of cookies, don`t worry users won`t see it.
I tried some things to stop peole form adding to the top, but I created a bug and had to take it out.
You would have to add some code to give a message if they try to add.

Has anyone made a fix for the big security problem????
| | | | John wrote :499
I was just wondering if anyone has, or knows of an existing spider to work with this. So you can spider sites automatically. It would help reduce the amount of work you have to do personally i think. I amvery new to PHP and like everything I know about it so far. I haven`t even incorporated this script into a site yet. I full intend to, but i think maybe I should get a book on MySQL since I have no experience at all with it.
