Obviously, you wouldn't want to repeat the same darn code in every cell (but would move it up into a function in the head), and nobody who has the slightest love for people who might have to update his code later would use style attributes (but would instead use classes and CSS declarations), but I hope this steers you in the right direction... test From mark.macinnes at gmail.com Tue Jun 10 10:47:47 2008 From: mark.macinnes at gmail.com (Mark MacInnes) Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2008 16:47:47 +0100 Subject: [thelist] Protect PHP Application Message-ID: <78ade31a0806100847j1ee7a1d2h8fc68514b4dae123@mail.gmail.com> Hello, Recently, one of my clients has employed an in-house web developer. Whilst I am (relatively) happy to deal with this guy, he has been asking a huge number of questions about how the site operates as well as questioning my abilities (which blatantly being very inexperience himself). I amalso concerned with this individual taking my application and selling it off as his own work. So I have two main issues. How would you/your company deal with this situation? Would you answer every question in detail, thus effectively training up this guy and giving work away that strictly should be ours? Or would you politely state that it is not in your interests to train this individual and that whilst you offer support to the client in terms of running the site and any bugs that appear, you do not in terms of how it is coded? Secondly, how would you protect your application? Obviously copyright grants me protection, but this is only effective when you know the product has been stolen. I have come up with having a small function that checks the server ip and e-mails back if it does not match authorised IPs, however this could be easily disabled if removed. I also have come up with moving some core files to another location on the server (the client is hosted on my own server) and not giving the developer access to these files, thus if the application is stolen the developer wouldn't be able to run the application without lots of effort, however this still means that he would have access to a lot of code. I realise there is only so much that can be done to protect my work in this environment, however I want to employ at least a few tactics.

Just encrypt the code with your ip check function in it. If it were me, I'd go with the option of sending the new guy an email politely explaining that you don't provide training, just support and that he should look elsewhere for help learning... maybe even throw him a link to a for dummies book at amazon.

Move all the files away! Give him access to templates or whatever files he NEEDS to access. Why give them anything that's not theirs?

Message-ID: <498140.97758.qm@web57302.mail.re1.yahoo.com> To anyone out there who can help, I'm in the very beginning processes of creating a web site that will host a class I will teach. The class will be taught through a webconference that people can access through their personal computers. I don't have any experience in building web sites or in creating this sort of setup, but I'm figuring it out. The webconference must have audio and video of me that the students will hear and see as well as audio for each of the students so that I can hear each of them and each of them can hear all the others. If I were able to provide a video picture of any student who wants to provide one, that would be even better. I would like the students and myself to access the webconference through the web site. I'm trying to do all this as cheaply as possible. What software or hardware would be best? I would like it to be inexpensive, but in the end, reliability is most important. The audio and video also need to be able to work well on just about anyone's computer. And I would like it to be as easy to use for the students as possible. I would also like to have the ability to run the class from various computers and locations. What webcam could I easily attach to any computer? If anyone can answer any of these questions or can send me to a place where I can get them answered, I'd very much appreciate it.

Thanks for writing. Unfortunately that technique -- while brutishly simple :-) -- doesn't account for one thing I didn't mention: the search criteria are optional. So there may not be a value for toe type, for example, in which case the if statement would always fail. Neat thought, though; I hadn't considered it myself! Cheers, Aaron.
