[PHP-DB] pg_escape with copy
I have data that I'm running through pg_escape_sting in php and then adding to stdin for a copy command. The problem is O'reilly is being changed to O''Reilly in the string and then in the db. I saw with the copy command I can specify the escape but it isn't working for me. Should this command fix this double 'single' quote issue when I put it in the db? And what is the proper syntax? COPY mytable FROM stdin with escape Thanks!

[PHP-DB] mssql_select_db(): Unable to select database:
Hello all, I set up freetds on one of my servers and everything worked fine. I just set it up on another server (this one with the latest php) and now the same code seems to connect but can't select the db mssql_select_db(): Unable to select database:. How can I figure out what's wrong? The mssql db is hosted remotely so both servers should be able to hit it fine and are using the exact same source code. The differences are they are running different versions of php and possibly freetds. Thanks!

[PHP-DB] mssql_select_db
I have some code which connects to a remote SQL server. The code has worked fine for a year and now the mssql_select_db is failing. The code hasn't changed and I talked to the SQL Server admin who assures me nothing has changed and I am talking to the web host who says nothing changed...how can I debug this? The web host is running FreeBSD with the FreeTDS library and php 4.3.9. Is there a way to echo all of the mssql tables after I make the connection? I can connect fine, just can't select a db so I want to see what databases php can see. Thanks! -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] floats
I am running a query on MySQL: select * from cars where id =52 It returns the row and I can see that gas mileage is saved as a float with a value of 23.45. So I then do a query, select * from cars where id=52 and gas_mil=23.45 and the query doesn't retun anything. Why? Do I have to cast this as a float?

[PHP-DB] group by
Hello, Let's say I have an app used in car garages. I have two tables: table cars id make model table work_done id carid details work_date I need to pull out the last work order for each car. This pulls them all: select c.make, c.model, c.id, wd.details from cars c join work_done wd on wd.carid=c.id I can do this to get one per car: select c.make, c.model, c.id, wd.details from cars c join work_done wd on wd.carid=c.id order by c.id but that doesn't always pull the most recent one. How can I group by carid so I only get one row returned per car and ensure that row contains the most recent work row? I can't used subqueries as I haven't updated to MySQL 4.1 yet.

[PHP-DB] mysql 4.1-4.0

[PHP-DB] Rand()
I have the following query: Select id, fname, lname from clients where featured=1 order by RAND() At any time, there should only be three clients where featured =1. Problem is I have run this query several times yet it always returns them in the same order. Not sure it makes a difference but the primary key is on the id column. What am I doing wrong?

Re: [PHP-DB] Rand()
Yeah, I had tried that earlier but it doesn't work. It does generate a new value for temp each time but they are still in the same order as the first one always has a lower temp value On Thu, 7 Oct 2004 06:40:23 -0700, Ed Lazor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: select id, fname, lname, RAND() as temp from clients where featured=1 order by temp -Original Message- I have the following query: Select id, fname, lname from clients where featured=1 order by RAND() At any time, there should only be three clients where featured =1.
