PHP Easter Egg

Want to see an Easter Egg in PHP, then just add [?=PHPE9568F36-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42] onto any url that works in PHP, like say for example Threadwatch, or Matt Cutts Blog. Now curiously Jeremy has a different picture, things that make you go hmmm ....

via digg

- Y! MyWeb

strange

Can't seem to get it to do anything on my forum site that uses PHP


Doesn't work on my sites either...

...must be a version thing. (Ah well)


wonder if you can do it on

wonder if you can do it on Paypal too :-p


Can't requests like that be blocked?

Like in .htaccess or something, serve a 403 to any request for a page with that query string? (I don't know enough about it to know for sure and don't have time to test right now...)


.htaccess

Matthew -

Yes, you definitely can.


If you don't like the pics -

If you don't like the pics - here's a php logo...[?=PHPE9568F34-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42]

Eg: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/?=PHPE9568F34-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42

:)


And another one

http://www.threadwatch.org/?=PHPE9568F35-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42

I've also seen different versions of this one.


I have a morse !



I get nothing on my server

But, that's because I've set my server to not identify php, so this is disabled also.


Found this in the libphp5.so file:

PHPE9568F36-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42
PHPE9568F34-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42
PHPE9568F35-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42

Only ones in there that return something. There are a couple more but they do not appear to do anything (without much investigating behind it).

And these in the info.h file:

#define PHP_LOGO_GUID "PHPE9568F34-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42"
#define PHP_EGG_LOGO_GUID "PHPE9568F36-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42"
#define ZEND_LOGO_GUID "PHPE9568F35-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42"

So that is about it.
