Why do you have to use PHP at all to do this? You could run the query
directly at the MySQL console.
Failing that, why not use a tool such as phpMyAdmin, which will do all
the hard work for you?

I use it to deploy schema updates and run unittests. So there are many sql
files running many times actually. Its been working fine for years until I came
up with wanting a trigger recently...
good point to check how phpMyAdmin does this. They must have faced the same
problem.

not quite as easy: mysqli->multi_query() works nice with many queries in a
string but that DELIMITER syntax still produces an error...

Hello,
I have a contact form with three fields, name, email, and comment, and
a CAPTCHA
I am doing some basic validation for empty fields but am getting a PHP
error when trying to redirect back to the original page with an ERROR,
It seems when my COMMENT field contains <BR>s, it generates the PHP
ERROR. No <BR?s works perfectly. Am I missing a function for the
comment that is necessary for the GET STRING return?
if($_POST['name'] AND $_POST['email'] AND $_POST['comment']) {
}else{
header("location: contactus.php?Error=Missing values in REQUIRED
FIELDS&name=".$_POST['name']."&email=".$_POST['email']."&comment=".
$_POST['comment']);
exit();
}
session_start();
if($_SESSION['Captcha_Str'] != $_POST['scode']) {
echo "HI";
header("location: contactus.php?Error=You did not enter your SECURITY
CODE correctly. It is case sensitive.&name=".$_POST['name']."&email=".
$_POST['email']."&comment=".$_POST['comment']);
exit();
}

Add a line in to your .htaccess file then to turn error displaying on.
Note that if this is a live server then you shouldn't really do this,
but if you have to, turn them back off again asap.
php_flag display_errors off
ps. please keep the list copied in, as other people might be able to
benefit from the thread.
psps. please try not to top post; every time you do, a kitten dies ;)

It is probably something I need to do to the header() string to
accommodate the <BR>s. I am redirecting back to the original form,
displaying an ERROR, then re-populating the fields via the GET
string.
The omission of this is CHOKING PHP.

When I look at my FTP client, I cannot see this .htaccess file. This
is a live server, so I am hesitant to find it anyways. I will wait for
my partner to assist me with this config so I can see the error.
Unless someone know what I am missing by description. We'll see ;-)

If the file doesn't exist you can make it. Some FTP clients may hide the
file as it begins with a period. By default, this character is used to
hide files on *nix-based systems. Windows tends to choke every now and
again on .htaccess files, as it sees it as a file with no name and just
an extension.
You mentioned that there were newline characters in the URL you were
attempting to redirect to. URLs can't contain newline characters, so
that could be causing it to choke. If in doubt, put the URL into a
string first and echo that out and see what the result is. You may need
to view the source of the output in your browser, as the browser will be
treating that string as HTML by default, which treats whitespace
differently.

Ash

You still haven't given us what ERROR you receive, but you need to
urlencode() $_POST['comment'] and the other values in the URL query string.

You still haven't given us what ERROR you receive, but you need to
urlencode() $_POST['comment'] and the other values in the URL query string.
echo "HI";
header(...
This part will cause an error since outputting anything will cause the
headers to be sent (unless output buffering is on). Once sent, the
headers cannot be modified.
You should also think about using urlencode on the values being sent in
the redirect URLs, or even using a code to reference each error.

I don't believe cookies are available in a CLI script, they are a
construct of the browser/web server setup. Running PHP via the command
line is just like any other script over the command line.

Hello List.
I need to parse the PATH portion of URL. I have assigned the path
portion to a variable using the following:
$thepath = parse_url($url);
Now I need to break each portion of the path down into its own
variable. The problem is, the path can vary considerably as follows:
/mydirectory/mysubdirectory/anothersubdirectory/mypage.php
vs.
/mydirectory/mypage.php
How do I get the either of the above url paths broken out so the
variables equal the following
$dir1 = mydirectory
$dir2 = mysubdirectory
$dir3 = anothersubdirectory
$page = mypage.php
...etc... if there were 5 more subdirectories... they would be
dynamically assigned to a variable.
Thanks for any help.

$filename = basename($path);
$parts = explode('/', $path);
$directories = array_pop($parts);
Now you have your directories in the $directories array and the filename
in $filename.

Hi Rick,
Just a thought, but cant you do something to separate them according
to the "/" (forward slash)?
maybe preg_replace or something. Sorry not much more help.

As your example string didn't have a double slash I didn't write code
for that, but it's easy enough to remove 0-length strings from the
$directories array.

You don't look for one, that's the point. The explode() breaks the
string into an array at every occurrence of a '/' character. This will
leave zero length strings in the array if there is a double // (which
wasn't in any given example in this thread that I saw) When you use the
array, just don't do anything with empty elements!

Because you've given it an array. Your original question never mentioned
you were using parse_url() on the original array string. parse_url()
breaks the string into its component parts, much like my explode
example.

OK, sorry for any confusion.
Here is all my code:
$url = "http" . ((!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS'])) ? "s" : "") . "://".
$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$thepath = parse_url($url);
So, given that the URL can vary as follows:
/mydirectory/mysubdirectory/anothersubdirectory/mypage.php
vs.
/mydirectory/mypage.php
How do I get the either of the above url paths broken out so the
variables equal the following
$dir1 = mydirectory
$dir2 = mysubdirectory
$dir3 = anothersubdirectory
$page = mypage.php
...etc... if there were 5 more subdirectories... they would be
dynamically assigned to a variable.
