 Posted: Thu Apr 22, 2004 4:34 am Post subject: MultiProfile for AIM |
 |
|
I wrote a PHP Script called MultiProfile for AIM. It displays different content based on the Screen Name of the user viewing it. I thought it was pretty useful.
Check it out here: http://www.cfxnetworks.com/csa/multiprofile.html
I know there is a lot I can do to improve this script, and I will be writing revised versions every week or so, but right now I will release it how it is. Currently, it does not support screen names with spaces due to the nature of how AIM handles URLs. If I have some extra time, I can try to fix this issue.

Well I've been looking around, and I can't seem to find a solution to my space issue. Here's the problem:
When you pass a variable in the URL, which is what I am doing, a browser automatically formats the URL. If the URL has a space, then the browser sticks a %20 where the space goes. The problem is, that AIM does not format the URL with a %20; it instead just leaves it as a space. When the script receives the variable, it cannot handle it, and returns with a "400: Bad Request."
I know there is a method of getting around this; for I have seen it done before.

have you tried this !
Leaves a space in between words
| Code: | | $name = urldecode($name); |
Shows a + in between words
| Code: | | $name = urlencode($name); |
This keeps dumb spaces from
being sent as % characters.

Will it work with a query string as oppose to a variable I set (or request) myself?
Note: Encoding the URL is my goal here; because if it doesn't get encoded, it won't work.

It should but you might have to create some sort of
variable that opens the URL secretly to decode the
username so that it can work , I will post code later on.
Im pretty sure if you use
| Code: |
<?php
$name = urldecode($name);
print "Hello $name";
?> |
Using A URL like this
http://your-site.com/post.php?name=abyss rules
will show a percent character in the URL but in
the print will print out the 2 words "abyss rules' ok
Online Example:
http://os17fan.cjb.net/php-scripts/post.php?name=Abyss%20Rules |

I'm still getting a bad request.
I think the difference is that I am using a conditional statement, whereas your example isn't. Actually, the "urlencode" didn't do the trick. It was the browser that did it. I tried your link in AIM, and the URL didn't encode; it gave the same error as mine.
| Code: | <?php
if ($_GET['sn'] == "FFx10 32") {
?> |
That's what I'm trying to work with. When AIM fills in the variable "%n," it enters "FFx10 32" without the %20. When that is requested by "$_GET['sn']," PHP can't handle a pure space like that.

Here's something that should fix your problem
your updated code should be the following! 8)
| Code: | <?php
//MultiProfile Script
//Written by iNaNimAtE
//http://www.cfxnetworks.com
$_GET['sn'] = urldecode ($_GET['sn']);
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
}
if ($_GET['sn'] == "#ENTER SCREEN NAME HERE#") {
?>
#ENTER PROFILE MESSAGE HERE#
<?php
exit;
} else {
echo '#ENTER MESSAGE ALL OTHER PEOPLE WILL SEE HERE#';
exit;
}
?> |

I don't know what to do than , all I can say is that
the URL will always be %20 but the print out it self
will become seperate words , do you understand ? |

No, I understand that. The print out isn't the problem.

There is the problem; the URL is not encoded. AIM doesn't encode it.
Therefore, I need to find a workaround.
