13:06 < mutante> hmm,while trying to write a mediawiki extension i always get the output i return BEFORE all other html in
the wiki pages instead of inline...what could i be doing wrong
13:08 < mutante> $output=system ("figlet $input"); <maybe connected to using a system command to create output 13:08 < dammit> of course, PECL would do the job 13:09 < mutante> it returns what i want, just before the rest of all html 13:09 < dammit> haha, figlet ;-) 13:09 < mutante> yea *g* 13:09 < dammit> mutante: try using popen("figlet $input","r"); 13:09 < dammit> and don't forget to escape special characters in your $input 13:09 < dammit> or you'll end up in h4x0red box 13:10 < mutante> dammit: $input = mysql_escape_string($input); good enough? 13:12 < dammit> *shrug* :) 13:12 < dammit> then make it "figlet '$input'" 13:12 < JeLuF> mutante: No. mysql_escape_string is for SQL commands, not for shell commands 13:13 < mutante> JeLuF: oh,yea,is there something like "bash_escape_string" ? 13:14 < mutante> i guess i need to be afraid of ;'s 13:14 < JeLuF> or $( or ` or or or 13:14 < hendrik> escapeshellcmd 13:15 < JeLuF> mutante: http://de2.php.net/manual-lookup.php?pattern=escape 13:15 < mutante> does this sound good: $input =~ /[Aa-Zz]|[1-0]; 13:15 < TimStarling> use wfEscapeShellArg, it works on windows, kind of 13:15 < mutante> thanks for all the help
