kl_php -- Place PHP script in Content

[konlong]

kl_php is a content mambot which is used to include PHP script in content. This mambot has
4 admin parameters!

"ob" ="1" "Use Output Buffering"
"entities" ="1" "Decode HTML_entities"
"span" ="0" "Set to 1 to Wrap the results in a span"
"debug" ="0" "debug"

Examples:

 {kl_php} include("http://onlinemedicalforum.com/forum/ssi.php?a=active");{/kl_php}

 {kl_php}
$collection ="http://www.mediapanic.com/swanseasucks/random/thoughts.txt";
$thoughts = file("$collection");
$thought = rand(0, count($thoughts)-1);
echo $thoughts[$thought];
{/kl_php}

{kl_php}
include("local_script_file.php");
{/kl_php}

Thanks much for your post! I've downloaded your mod_kl_php pack and it works very well.

I am having trouble with the mambot though. It seems as if it doesn't want to recognize {kl_php} as a trigger - even when I use the examples you've posted. Rather than executing the PHP between your trigger tags - it just posts it onto my site as plain text.

Being rather new to Mambo - I'm not sure if any of my troubleshooting was worthwhile - but I've tried turning on/off different mambots to see if it would make any difference. Seemed like a logical place to start but it didn't do anything to help.

Any ideas on what to do next?



*Edit* Might it be because I'm using 4.5.2?

[konlong]

I know it gets confusing but mod_kl_evalphp is a module and your php script is stored in a parameter. While kl_php is a mambot and as such the tags {kl_php} and {/kl_php} are entered into Content and they surround the PHP script.

If the text of the mambot isbeing displayed as opposed to being parsed then there are a few possibilities:

1. the mambot has not been published (turned on)
2. you have placed the mambot in a description area of either a section or a category
3. you have placed the mambot in a module

konlong...
your bot is only for content items, right ?
well... any ideas about how to exec some php code inside modules ?
lot of people generate php code in phpadsnew and they complain about this...
phpadsnew + mambo is becoming very popular...

thanks

you are correct, however if you look in the Module Development forum you will find the module counterpart to kl_php, namely mod_kl_evalphp.

I cannot download the mambot although I'm logged in.
Is there any alternative download address?

Konlong I am getting this error
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /home/pakpass/public_html/mambots/content/kl_php.php(65) : eval()'d code on line 1

when I try to execute includes code

Any idea why?

[Scribbller]

BTW I am trying to execute this code

{kl_php} include(http:///www.pakpassion.net/test/MainPage/WhoAreWe.html);{/kl_php}

[konlong]

You simply need to quote the string.
{kl_php} include('http://www.pakpassion.net/test/MainPage/WhoAreWe.html');{/kl_php}

Hi

I am trying to get this OS API to work in Mambo.

http://metaatem.net/words/

I installed the mambot and then dropped the code into a static content page. What happened is that it does not work! I am not sure how this works but what happens is this

http://srtcweb.co.uk/index.php?optio...13&Itemi d=28

the php code is appearing in the page along with a the form.

it does not work as an API.

I used the the source code..

http://metaatem.net/words.phps



there is also a javascript wrapper code.

http://metaatem.net/spell.phps

Tried this but it did not seem to work either.



Help would be great!

[konlong]

From your link it is apparent that you are missing the opening few lines of his code. Check your file to see that it begins with: <?php
the second line of his code starts with: /*

Hi... Thanks Konlong, this is a great bot. I only have a question, what about kl_php and mambo 4.5.2? it seems to work ok.... but there is any problem that I´m missing?



.:Guille:.

[konlong]

If you are having trouble with the included code it may be that the code is trying to include things which are not available on your system. I would suggest that you contact the original author to see how you might run his application on your system.

hi, I'm new to Mambo (on 4.5.2) and am trying to get something like this working on my site. it gives me this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /home/content/r/m/i/rmirasol/html/ronmambo/mambots/content/kl_php.php(65) : eval()'d code on line 1

this example works, though:

any idea what's going on? is it a 4.5.2 issue?

[konlong]

rmirasol: This code works well on my system, perhaps your system is not setup to allow evals of offsite url's.

[rmirasol]

I don't know how to check if my system allows evals of offsite url's (real newbie) but the workaround I used was to put the first code snippet in a php file and then include it using the second code snippet.

thanks for the reply.
