hi--
firstly, I am relatively new to mysql.
I am having a problem getting text I enter into a perl script (for reasons
of parsing and sending to my mysql database) to consistently get entered
into the database.
the perl script takes a mail message and makes the body of the message
"$body". It then pulls the first bit of the body to make the "$header"...
this is then written to the database. All very simple.
when i run a simple text body through the program it is picked up, parsed
and correctly sent to the mysql database table specified. When I try a
number of other texts of same or very similar formats, I found that only a
quarter to a half of them get written to the database.
this is very confusing because I have it set upin the perl script that all
the parsed values ($body and $header) are e-mailed to my address so I can
confirm the script worked correctly on the text in question.
And in every case it did ... based on the e-mail.
So then, why am I getting selective acceptance of data strings into my mysql
database?
Is this something that others have suffered with that you may be able to
help me with?????
As a note: the mysql I use is run through PhpMyAdmin.
thanks,
chris herold
