Subject: [PHP-DB] lamer noob with repeat question
Hello everyone,
I've been working on (read:tearing my hair out over) my mom's website
for
some time now. Specifically, I'm trying to get her work order
database up
and running.
The basic idea is this: you start out adding a new record by going to
add.php. It sees that you've not done anything yet and thus presents
you
with a form to fill out. That form gets submitted to add.php, which
sees
that you're adding something. It checks for a duplicate work order
number
(and eventually other errors) and then either adds the stuff you
submitted
into the DB, or pops an error and presents the form again.
Alas, it does nothing.
When you initially load the page, it works okay, sensing that you've
not
yet
done anything and displaying the form. But when you submit data, it
spits
out naught more than a blank page, and doesn't add anything to the
database.
Damned lazy script.
What I've got so far is this:

Which I figured would reduce the number of things that can pop an error to a
minimum. When I post something, it echoes a rather beautiful mysql insert
statement...then tells me that I suck. But it doesn't tell me why I
suck...$mysql_error is empty. And it's not sticking anything into my
database.

Re: INTO OUTFILE
If you're using notepad to view it, it'll display it all as one line because notepad only recognises the complete CR/LF as a new line. A CR or an LF by themselves will just show up as a square, non-displayable character and won't break the line. Wordpad, on the other hand, understands that a CR or an LF by itself is often used interchangeably with a CRLF...and renders its output accordingly. hth Dan - Original Message - From: Paul DuBois [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 30, 2004 4:41 PM Subject: Re: INTO OUTFILE At 19:18 -0400 4/30/04, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi, I am trying to put the output of certain queries into a file using SELECT * INTO OUTFILE FILENAME FROM TABLE NAME WHERE CONDITION; I am able to see the file and the records are there.

Re: unstable mysql connection
you might also try using some sort of VPN solution; depending on distance, setting up pptp might not be a bad idea anyways. The overhead can hit 5% or even 10%, but the added security and error correction makes it well worth it, especially over a potentially buggy connection such as yours. I've personal experience with using a pair of Netopia R910 routers; they're bloody cheap and approaching wire speeds on their ports, which is no small feat when you consider they're less than $150 a pop. If they're in the same room, however...just get a decent pair of 10/100 cards and make a nice crossover cable. Please.

The problem: Sometimes the lan connection has paket drops (about 1%) and the connection to the mysql server is lost. Unfortunately the client starts his work from the beginning. How can I add some sort of proxy between the client and the server on the client host that accept the mysql query from the client like a mysql server, forwards this query to the real mysql server as often as needed to get the answer over the bad lan connection and than returns the result of the clients query to the client like a normal mysql server would do?
