Description

This takes care of most external link issues.

We still need to wait for the patch for getUrl, but this should be solved soon.
  • add user-agent #13800
  • correct handling of location (Thanks to Daniel Minder)
  • move code up and down
  • remove useless or duplicated code

Hi Philipp,

do we need the line t3lib_utility_Debug::debug($cookies);?

The rest looks fine.

No, of course not ...

I am currently rewriting the whole loop and I will come up with a patch. It will cover all open issues regarding external link handling.

Updated by Daniel Minder about 13 years ago

I tested the patch (with getUrl($url, 2, ...) instead of 3) and found a bug in the Cookie handling.

It's not required that a path is given, and if it's present it does not need to be the first attribute. So, line 117 should be changed to:

if ((preg_match('/Set-Cookie: ([^;]+)/', $line, $cookie))) {

since the actual cookie stops at ; or at the end of the line. I'm not sure if the name or value of the cookie can be a quoted string that includes ;. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-httpstate-cookie-21 defines name and value to be a token as defined in RFC 2616 where token is "1*<any CHAR except CTLs or separators>". Then, the regexp would become more complex...

A Cookie an also have an expires entry.

I think Name= + value + expires + ; + path is pretty much standard.

I will do some tests this afternoon.

-remove only fetching headers

this was dropped for now in core, so we will have to come up with a better solution for fetching URLs first.
