UPDATE query with ORDER BY and LIMIT
Hi to all! I have to use an UPDATE query with ORDER BY and LIMIT clauses. This is the query: UPDATE TBLTEST SET LOCKEDBY='test' WHERE FIELD1 LIKE 'test_' ORDER BY INS_DATE LIMIT 1; MySql tells me that I have an error in my SQL syntax near 'ORDER BY INS_DATE' at line 1. I use Mysql 3.23.30-gamma with MyIsam table format. I have read the manual and the syntax, according to that, seems to be correct... but... nothing is as it seems What is wrong?

General install questions...
Hi! I was introduced to MySQL on the web and was wondering whether anyone can answer the following questions about MySQL: 1) I am being hosted on a server and the server is Cobalt RaQ3 type with linux. It's a unix based server. Is it possible to install MySQL on my server? If so, which type of the many different MySQL packages should I download? 2) How large would the installation of MySQL take up server space? Thank you for your time.

RE: Save image to database
Hi
I asked the same Q a while ago about bin data if you look in the archives of
this list it should still be there look under "binary data" as the subject
To point you in the right direction tho here are some excerpts from my
answers that I kept...
if you look at the second excerpt there is a perl example to laod the data,
but I think that there is a function called loadfile() I think and you can
use this too! I just remember seeing it, but I forgot to save that message
:-( Apparently it escapes all your bin zeros, ", \ etc although after lots
of discussions with other ppl we decided it is better to have a reference to
the files instead of storing the actual file on the DB, although ppl, do
still find it useful to do it, we didnt...
Hope this helps

Hi Barry,
I do not know what do you use for feeding your database, but in Perl you
shoud use the DBI module, and insert the binary data through bindings.
use DBI;
use strict;
...
my $dbh = DBI-connect("dbi:mysql:image_db", "user", "password") || die
"$DBI::errstr\n";# connect to the database
...
my $sth = $dbh-prepare("INSERT jpeg_table SET size_x = $size_x, size_y
=$size_y, image_data = ?;") || die "$DBI::errstr\n";# prepare the insert
statement, replacing the image data with a question mark
$sth-bind_param(1, $image_data); # binding the binary
data
$sth-execute() || die "$DBI::errstr\n";# executing the
insert
...
$dbh-disconnect(); # disconnect

problem with blob
Hi, I'm new to MySQL so please forgive me if this post is very rudimentary. I've created a new database and added all my tables, etc... Everything seems to be fine except for a blob field in one of my tables. I'm using myODBC and ColdFusion 4.0 on Win2000. When I output the content the blob contains all that it displays are a series of letters and numbers, nothing remotely like the data I put in. But when I use the console and run the query it shows me the data that's in there.

Buggy comparison with varchar2 containing Greek (ISO8859-7) on linux
Hi, In addition to what Balanis found about a year ago :
I have some problems with mysql because it does not
cooperate very well with greek characters.
The first problem is that mysql distinguishes the capital characters
with accend from all the other possible "ways" the same letter can be
found:
1) capital without accend
2) small with/without accend
e.g.
select "A" = "'A";
***
* "A"="'A"*
*0 *
It matches all the other possible "ways" e.g.:
"A"="a"
"A"="'a"
"a"="'a"
Although it doesnt (the previous) completely hold as of Mysql 3.23.32-1,
the problem is much worse:
the set {0xD3,0xD4) (greek S and T) are considered the same char by the =
comparison.
the set {0xEC, 0xED, 0xEE} (greek Mi, Ni, Ksi) of chars are also considered
equivalent in comparison.
I am really surprised!!
Are the developers aware of the problenatic behaviour for greek lang??

Yet more root password hell
Hi All, i'm currently setting up my first mySQL database, and have made the mistake of updating the root user's password without using the Password() function, meaning i am unable to get at the mysql database, or the new one i had just created. As has been suggested on this list, i have tried using the command below: safe_mysqld --skip-grant-tables However i receive a "Permission denied : cannot unlink `/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' error, and nothing happens. This could be due to my inability to shut down the mysql server, as to do that (Using mysqladmin) requires the root login. Is there any other way to restore the database, or should i try and re-install? (No data will be lost) Also, if a reinstall is the only way, does anyone have any experience of doing this remotely, on a Cobalt Raq4 server?

changing character set used for data and sorting
Hello, can anyone help me to solve the following problem: I've installed MySQL server Ver 8.0 Distrib 3.22.32 from FreeBSD 4.1 ports while installing OS. Now I need to make the server sort data strings encoded in koi8-ru in SELECT .. ORDER BY .. statements correctly. At this stage I don't need any other extra functionality other than sorting strings in russian language correctly. I looked through the manuals and mail lists and figured out eventually that MySQL server must be started with --default-character-set=koi8_ru. The first problem is that there is no share/mysql/charsets/ directory installed. And the second - server doesn't understand this option if I put it in /etc/my.cfn like [mysqld] default-character-set=koi8_ru There is error message in log file saying: /usr/local/libexec/mysqld: unrecognized option `--default-character-set=koi8_ru' What the server does understand is [mysqld] language=russian but it has nothing to do with the data sorting. Why does the server fail to start with the default-character-set=koi8_ru option in /etc/my.cfn? Do I have to compile it from the sources with --with-charset=koi8_ru option in order to solve the problem or I just can copy share/mysql/charsets/ from appropriate tarball distribution and restart the server? In case I have to compile it, I have to recompile php, apache and DBI as well, don't I? Please send your responses directly to my email address because I'm not subscribed to this list.

Re: Once again... quotas...
At the company I work for we decided to try and implement reverse quotas. rather than limit said user to x we keep track of their usage and compare it to x. If they should happen to exceed that values then they are billed for the overage. It's very muhc like how UU bills us on our bandwidth for the burstable circuits.

Connecting via MyODBC always brings up the TDX mysql Driver Connect dialog
Hello, I've recently successfully downloaded and installed both MySQL and MyODBC on my Win2000 "box". Everything thing works great, except that for every connection via MyODBC I make, the ODBC-setup dialog "TDX mysql Driver Connect" pops up and I have to hit its OK button to close it. There is a checkbox named "Don't prompt on connect" which I thought was ment to have it stop poping up that dialog, but it has no effect. Any idea what to do?

Re: Future suggestion
Yeah, I totally agree with the idea of limiting the fields selected for most operations. But it would be useful even for using something like the MySQL client -- I want to see the majority of fields but don't care about a few text or varchar fields. It's a pain to type in the field list every time. I just think that an EXCEPT clause in the field list would make sense in a lot of ways. Too bad about Microsoft's "Not Invented Here" treatment of Visual FoxPro.

Is this normal behavior?

The above only means that client program has not called mysql_close()

Re: Can this query not be done in MySQL.
How about : select a.flight_no, a.sequence, a.city from stop_offs a left join stop_offs b on b.sequence = a.sequence + 1 and a.flight_no = b.flight_no where b.sequence is NULL; Richard Reina wrote: Steve, I never received Mr. Van Engen's response. I appreciate your response. However, my question remains unanswered. If you put "sequence" in the GROUP BY it does not give you the value that correspond to the MAXIMUM sequence. As a matter of fact I can't find any combination of values that you can put in the GROUP BY clause that will give you the values that correspond with MAX. What good is an aggregate function like MAX if it does not give you the value ( and only that ) that corresponds to that aggregate function. In this case shouldn't (MAX(sequence)) give you only those values that correspond to the maximum sequence for each flight which would be: +---+ |flight_no |sequence|City | | 127 | 2 |Boston | | 391 | 1 |Miami | +---+ The documentation in the documentation under GROUP BY functions (section 7.3.12) seems to advocate this syntax -- specifically with their example of querying orders by MAX(payments) -- although they don't show the results of their examples. If this cannot be done in MySQL will someone with authority on the subject -- perhaps Sasha or Monty -- simply say that MySQL cannot perform this type of query. If it can be done will someone demonstrate how it can be done in MySQL. I believe I can do it in other DBMSs with the following subselect: SELECT soo.flight_no, soo.sequence, soo.city FROM stop_offs soo /* That's "stop_offs outer" */ WHERE soo.sequence = (select max(soi.sequence) FROM stop_offs soi /* "stop_offs inner" */ where soi.flight_no = soo.flight_no ) however, it is my understanding that MySQL does not support subselects. I have once again included a copy of the table below. Once again, thank you for your attention in this matter. Here is the table: +--+ | STOP_0FFS | +--+ |FLIGHT_NO |CITY | SEQUENCE| |127 |Chicago |1| |127 |Boston |2| |391 |Miami|1| +--+ SELECT flight_no, MAX(sequence), city FROM stop_offs GROUP BY flight_no; gives the result: +---+ |flight_no |sequence|City | | 127 | 2 |Chicago| | 391 | 1 |Miami | +---+ However Chicago is the city of the first stop off (sequence 1) not the value that corresponds with a sequence of 2 which would be 'Boston'. The desired result is the following: +---+ |flight_no |sequence|City | | 127 | 2 |Boston | | 391 | 1 |Miami | +---+ Steve Ruby wrote: Your question was answered already after you posted it on Saturday by Fred van Engen...

Re: [OT] Rel DB Question
Your link approach is fine (and I consider it preferable). Assume you suddenly start selling ties. With the Link_type approach, you simply need to create a new link type and you're ready to roll. Much simpler than needing to create a new table/relationship. Also, suppose you're asked: Show me everything that bob purchased.

Re: [OT] Rel DB Question
Hey, it depends on what type of relation you want. I'm no expert, but here's my 2cents. If PEOPLE can only have one shirt, one pants, one shoes ... then (1)your PEOPLE table might look like. CREATE TABLE PEOPLE( people_id auto.. blaa pants_idint .. shirt_idint .. shoe_id int .. .. ) (2)but if people can have more than one stuff .. then. you'll need a seperate table called PEOPLE_LINK CREATE TABLE PEOPLE_LINK( people_link_id auto.. blaa people_id int .. pants_idint .. shirt_idint .. shoe_id int .. .. ) option two is the best, gives you more flexiblility. your SHIRT, PANTS .. table might look something like this. CREATE TABLE SHIRTS( shirts_id auto.. blaa shirts_name varchar... .. ) now assume you want to do a select .. SELECT P.name,S.shirts_name FROM people AS P, people_link AS PL, shirts AS S WHERE P.people_id=PL.people_id AND P.people_id='people_id' AND PL.shirts_id = S.shirts_id this will give you the person's name and all the shirts he/she owns. hope this helps. cheers Ken -- please reply to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.mysqlwebring.com -- I have a relational DB question. I'll preface this and say I've had no formal training in DB's only on-the-job knowledge. I've been trying out some CASE tools and have discovered the following: Lets say I have a table that stores PEOPLE. I also have a table that stores SHIRTS, PANTS, SHOES. Now in the CASE tools when I create relationships between these tables, I get tons of "link" tables to relate PEOPLE to SHIRTS, PEOPLE to PANTS, PEOPLE to SHOES, and then I've got SHIRTS to PANTS, SHIRTS to SHOES, etc. I guess this is the proper way to implement these relationships. My question is, what I've done in the past is create a table like the following: PEOPLE_LINK -- people_link_id int people_id int link_type char link_id int Where link_type is either SHIRT, PANTS, SHOES (like an ENUM). Depending on what the "link_type" is, the link_id is either the shirt_id, pants_id, shoes_id. Is there anything wrong with using this one table instead of four tables to implement these relationships? Obviously, if "PANTS" becomes "TROUSERS" I'll have to do a replace, but as far as relational DB's go, is there anything wrong with have a relationship based on two keys and a char field. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. -- Clarence Kwei [EMAIL PROTECTED] ScienCentral, Inc.

Re: ranking album plays by city, help me beat Oracle
Hi. On Wed, Feb 21, 2001 at 12:32:21PM -0800, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I will respond in more detail later but just quickly now : Hm. Sorry, I don't understand your argument. By the for loop, your query does the same, doesn't it (selecting the rank of one album in each metro is the same as selecting for all metros the rank of one album)? The subtle difference is that the query I'm using ( I didn't actually write it ) calculates the rank of the single album in question by figuring out how many albums have greater play totals not caring what the more popular albums or what their totals were. Perhaps ignoring albums with smaller play totals using the HAVING focusing on just one album's position helps a lot. Ah. Okay. I thought about that meaning, but could not get positive that you actually meant it this way. Well. I doubt that this could be the reason, because HAVING is applied last, i.e. your query executes (almost) as if there was no HAVING clause, and then HAVING is applied (in fact, it is a bit different, but the main point is that _all_ albums will be examined and only the ones with a higher total_play will be returned). As I said, I guess it's rather the fact, that about 100 times more data has to be processed in _one_ turn, and MySQL decides to stores the intermediate result on disk (I believe, the default limit for in-memory temporary tables is 1MB, but it might be that I am just mixing up things here). [...] I am really curious, whether my arguments hold, and therefore what your test results are. Thank you in advance. If you are sufficiently curious I could send you a little Perl script that will create the ALBUM_BY_METRO table, populate it with test data allow you to more easily analyze the problem. Would you like that ? Yes, I would. Be sure to include enough data (so that the optimizer may not attempt to do a full table scan due to few rows). If this gets to big, just send it privately to me (or make it available for download on the web). It could take some days, because I am just upgrading my mysql version and have to do some regression tests on my software first. By the way, which MySQL version do you use?

Future suggestion
I just started using MySQL in the past month or so, and love it so far. I come from a background that includes a lot of FoxPro (way back in the days of FoxBase for the Macintosh). I also have had a bit of MS SQL Server experience, but more using it as a back end for Visual Foxpro. One of the things that have always bugged me about writing a SELECT statement has been the inablility to exclude certain fields. When doing a select * from a join, it would be nice to be able to do something like this: SELECT * EXCEPT invoice.custpo, payment.custid FROM remainder of select statement Is there anything holding back the developers of MySQL from implementing such a construct in MySQL, like the goal of ANSI compatability? Am I being a big dumbass for desiring such functionality? In any case, thanks to everyone who contributed to MySQL for such a cool product.

I see in your 'Explain's, the 2 queries use different indexes, the fast one uses soc_date_idx, and the slower one uses q_idx. The trick, perhaps is to force soc_date_idx to be used in the 2nd case. (Adding ORDER BY soc_date might do it, 'soc_date=X and (queue_id=Y and server_id=Z) ) might do it. I dunno. Perhaps if you do ANALYZE TABLE, it will comply with your desire.

Quoting numbers? (was Re:MySQL Tables)
I think you'll get better results if you don't quote your numbers. Quotes should be used for text and dates (depending) but not numbers. Out of curiosity, why? We use quotes for numbers all the time here, for consistency's sake; the programmer doesn't have to worry about the representation of, say, a salesman_id, but just reads/displays/stores it in the database. Aside from the fact that leaving them off is possible, is there a standards/compatibility/other reason to do so? (An example of a good reason not to use them would be if the db engine weren't smart enough to use an index when you say select * from table_name where numeric_key = '1234' but possibly (probably?) all dbms's are that smart.) --Pete - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

Re: error 35 with my.cnf
Hello Max, I am just catching up on my mysql messages and it didn't look like your question got answered. I am still learning mysql, but I know electronics. The first thing I would check, in your case, is the memory chips on the errant machine. Are the speeds identical? I have had a similar problem when I had chips 34 with a different clock rate than 12. How much memory is on board? Mysql is a memory hog. I had it working fine on 160Meg for development purposes, but I moved everything to a machine with 1.25Gig for production. Good luck.

aggregate UDF's
hi, i need to write my own very basic aggregate functions for MySQL and had a couple of questions regarding this: * does anybody know of a site with a collection of UDF's written by other MySQL user? * i read an old posting (from 99) about somebody writing a little tool, which enabled him to write UDFs in Perl: does anybody know more about this (excuse my naive question, but i guess there is nothing like that available for Java, or?) * any known problems for using UDFs over the JDBC-interface? * is it true that there is no way for using UDFs on the Windows-platform? * i could not find udf_example.cc neither in the Win-distribution, nor in the Linux-Intel-version. can anybody provide me with some basic example code, so that i see how aggregate functions should work? thanks a lot for your help, michi ps. i was already thinking about changing to a pure Java database, in order to write some functions on the DBserver-side in Java, since i am more familiar with this, but then i had to figure out there is nothing out there that is nearly as reliable, fast and inexpensive as MySQL!! keep up the good work, guys! - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

seemingly anomalous behaviour in Selects entered manually vs. in a script

I've got this seemingly anomalous situation that occurs when using a SELECT.
If I use the MYSQL command line thing and SELECT * FROM QUESTIONS, it tells
me that there are 7 rows in the set. There are, in fact 7 rows. Perfect.
HOWEVER, if I execute the following script I always get 1 row fewer than
exist. If there ought to be only 1 row in the result I get nothing
displayed!

Re: Quoting numbers? (was Re:MySQL Tables)
- Original Message - From: "Pete Harlan" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2001 4:51 Subject: Quoting numbers? (was Re:MySQL Tables) I think you'll get better results if you don't quote your numbers. Quotes should be used for text and dates (depending) but not numbers. Out of curiosity, why? For starters, I've had problems in the past doing this - getting incorrect results. Remove quotes and everything worked fine. The other is that not all databases/languages accept quotes around numbers. It's like comparing apples and oranges. We use quotes for numbers all the time here, for consistency's sake; the programmer doesn't have to worry about the representation of, say, a salesman_id, but just reads/displays/stores it in the database. Aside from the fact that leaving them off is possible, is there a standards/compatibility/other reason to do so? (An example of a good reason not to use them would be if the db engine weren't smart enough to use an index when you say Exactly. Not cross compatible with some databases/languages though it should be with today's databases. select * from table_name where numeric_key = '1234' but possibly (probably?) all dbms's are that smart.) I have used 2 diff. databases during my studies which would not accept the above because of quotes. Don't remember the names of the DBs but I do remember one ran under DOS and the other under VAX/VMS. --Pete - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

me that there are 7 rows in the set. There are, in fact 7 rows.
Perfect.
HOWEVER, if I execute the following script I always get 1 row fewer

displayed!

Re: Can this query not be done in MySQL.
The problem is that the value returned for a column requested in a group query without an agregate function is undefined, There is NO associated link between some column that you didn't put in the function and one that does not appear in the group by statement.. In fact usually (in my databases including mysql this will result in an error). Look at it this way.. What if you had two rows that corresponded to the max, how would it know which one to pick.. What if you were taking the Average instead of the max, and it returned 1.5 which row is it supposed to give you? As you can see there are many examples that illustrate why you can't do that query. Mr. Van Engen did have solutions for you posted to the list, I will forward you his response. It isn't that mysql can't perform the query you want, it is that the query you have shown is not compatible with SQL itself. If it were me I would do it in two queries... Get the max and then get the City corresponding to the flight and the max, in your case you should never have two cities that corespond to the max, but sql is a general language and cannot make such an assumption in all cases. Gerald Clark also posted another suggestion, another alternative, but you're not going to be able to do this with the query you state and it isn't mysql to blame... You can blame mysql for not haveing subqueries though :) Richard Reina wrote: Steve, I never received Mr. Van Engen's response. I appreciate your response. However, my question remains unanswered. If you put "sequence" in the GROUP BY it does not give you the value that correspond to the MAXIMUM sequence. As a matter of fact I can't find any combination of values that you can put in the GROUP BY clause that will give you the values that correspond with MAX. What good is an aggregate function like MAX if it does not give you the value ( and only that ) that corresponds to that aggregate function. In this case shouldn't (MAX(sequence)) give you only those values that correspond to the maximum sequence for each flight which would be: +---+ |flight_no |sequence|City | | 127 | 2 |Boston | | 391 | 1 |Miami | +---+ The documentation in the documentation under GROUP BY functions (section 7.3.12) seems to advocate this syntax -- specifically with their example of querying orders by MAX(payments) -- although they don't show the results of their examples. If this cannot be done in MySQL will someone with authority on the subject -- perhaps Sasha or Monty -- simply say that MySQL cannot perform this type of query. If it can be done will someone demonstrate how it can be done in MySQL. I believe I can do it in other DBMSs with the following subselect: SELECT soo.flight_no, soo.sequence, soo.city FROM stop_offs soo /* That's "stop_offs outer" */ WHERE soo.sequence = (select max(soi.sequence) FROM stop_offs soi /* "stop_offs inner" */ where soi.flight_no = soo.flight_no ) however, it is my understanding that MySQL does not support subselects. I have once again included a copy of the table below. Once again, thank you for your attention in this matter. Here is the table: +--+ | STOP_0FFS | +--+ |FLIGHT_NO |CITY | SEQUENCE| |127 |Chicago |1| |127 |Boston |2| |391 |Miami|1| +--+ SELECT flight_no, MAX(sequence), city FROM stop_offs GROUP BY flight_no; gives the result: +---+ |flight_no |sequence|City | | 127 | 2 |Chicago| | 391 | 1 |Miami | +---+ However Chicago is the city of the first stop off (sequence 1) not the value that corresponds with a sequence of 2 which would be 'Boston'. The desired result is the following: +---+ |flight_no |sequence|City | | 127 | 2 |Boston | | 391 | 1 |Miami | +---+ Steve Ruby wrote: Your question was answered already after you posted it on Saturday by Fred van Engen...

Re: seemingly anomalous behaviour in Selects entered manually vs. in a script
I think your command
$peek = @mysql_fetch_row($ex);
fetches the first row - you don't output it - and the cursor goes
to the next row.
For all remaining rows you use mysql_fetch_array($ex) which
starts from the second row (see above). This results in n rows,
with the first one invisible and (n - 1) rows displayed.
What's the above line about? I can't see any sense behind it.
Remove it, and I think the thing will work...

BDB Problem with MAX() and multipart primary keys
Hi folks, I have a problem with BDB tables. Please look at this short mysql session: mysql create table sample ( id1 int(8) not null, id2 int(8) not null, primary key (id1,id2)) type=BDB; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.67 sec) mysql insert into sample values (1, 2); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.07 sec) mysql select id2 from sample where id1=1; +-+ | id2 | +-+ | 2 | +-+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql select min(id2) from sample where id1=1; +--+ | min(id2) | +--+ |2 | +--+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql select max(id2) from sample where id1=1; +--+ | max(id2) | +--+ | NULL | +--+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) Is this a bug in mySQL? Why does MIN() return the correct result, while MAX() does not? Is it a severe bug which possibly can cause data inconsistency within the table data or does there exist a "good" workaround for this problem with only modifying the query?

An Oracle/Java web combination is a powerful, object-oriented way for web app to speak to a database.

[OT] Rel DB Question
I have a relational DB question. I'll preface this and say I've had no formal training in DB's only on-the-job knowledge. I've been trying out some CASE tools and have discovered the following: Lets say I have a table that stores PEOPLE. I also have a table that stores SHIRTS, PANTS, SHOES. Now in the CASE tools when I create relationships between these tables, I get tons of "link" tables to relate PEOPLE to SHIRTS, PEOPLE to PANTS, PEOPLE to SHOES, and then I've got SHIRTS to PANTS, SHIRTS to SHOES, etc. I guess this is the proper way to implement these relationships. My question is, what I've done in the past is create a table like the following: PEOPLE_LINK -- people_link_id int people_id int link_type char link_id int Where link_type is either SHIRT, PANTS, SHOES (like an ENUM). Depending on what the "link_type" is, the link_id is either the shirt_id, pants_id, shoes_id. Is there anything wrong with using this one table instead of four tables to implement these relationships? Obviously, if "PANTS" becomes "TROUSERS" I'll have to do a replace, but as far as relational DB's go, is there anything wrong with have a relationship based on two keys and a char field. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. -- Clarence Kwei [EMAIL PROTECTED] ScienCentral, Inc.

Re: XML support under mySQL

RE: XML support under mySQL
The database does it. It is my understanding that MSSQL will return the results of a query in XML. The idea, as I understand it, is to create web pages with XML data. (I attended a XML class where we did this) Since the web page contains code to call the database and the result is in XML, then it should be easier to present the page. (Note: some browsers can already do this with native XML) Another reason, maybe even a better one, is that XML is less database specific. So too will be the data. So the result of a query is no longer tied to the database that produced it.

Subject: seemingly anomalous behaviour in Selects entered manually vs.

Hi!
I've got this seemingly anomalous situation that occurs when using a SELECT.
If I use the MYSQL command line thing and SELECT * FROM QUESTIONS, it tells
me that there are 7 rows in the set. There are, in fact 7 rows. Perfect.
HOWEVER, if I execute the following script I always get 1 row fewer than
exist. If there ought to be only 1 row in the result I get nothing
displayed!
SNIP
?php
MYSQL_CONNECT("localhost","yourID","yourPASSWORD");
mysql_select_db("yourDATABASE");
$ex=@MYSQL_QUERY("select * from questions where uid='1' ");
echo 'table width="95%" border="1" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="4"
align="center" bgcolor="#CC" bordercolorlight="#FF"
bordercolordark="#99"';
echo "form action=\"integrateTest.php3\" method=\"GET\"";
//THE NEXT TWO LINES -- TRY EXECUTING ONE SELECT AND THEN COMMENT THE OTHER
LINE AND EXECUTE THE OTHER SELECT
//$ex=@MYSQL_QUERY("select * from questions where uid='1' ");
$ex=@MYSQL_QUERY("select * from questions ");
$peek=@mysql_fetch_row($ex);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($ex))
{
$var=$row["uid"];
echo "tr tddiv align=\"left\"";
echo "bselect: /binput type='checkbox' name='ID[]' value='$var'";
echo "/b/div div align=\"left\"bQuestion:/b
$row[question]/div/td /tr";
}
echo "/table";
echo ' p align=centerinput type="submit" name="Submit" value="Create
Test" /form/p';
?
SNIP
I suspect that it is something ridiculous that I am doing (or not doing),
but I just don't see it.
Would someone mind setting me straight on what I'm not doing correctly?
Thanks heaps!
