I'm writing a php script to store the contents of html and php pages in a data base, it works well until there are mysql queries in the pages source then give errors such as this one. Query failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'temp' how do stop mysql from trying to interperate this data and blindly store it ?? Another solution would be to base64 encode the data before storing it in the database. -- Lamont R.

I have php pages that are stored in a mysql database, that will later be imported into a cms I want to use mysql's regex funtion to remove unwanted php code and update links to images and urls. But i cant seem to get my brian around the regex part ... i want to remove the header include ?php require(./include/header1);? i tried \?php[^][header1].*\? , and other attempts but no luck .. unfortunetly i can do a normal string replace because of varations,in the code ... This regex would not match your case. Try this on for size: \?php.*require.*header1.*\? Many Thanks MySQL's REGEX is only for matching, not for replacement. If you really need a regex search and replace, you may find it easier to dump your data, edit it, and reimport it. If you are determined to do it in mysql, you'll need a (probably ugly) combination of mysql string functions. See the manual for details: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/string-functions.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/string-comparison-functions.html As Michael suggests, better to do this in an app. It should not take you very long to write a quick data importer in PHP that would take care of all this including using preg_replace () where you want it. -- Lamont R.

Re: copying rows from one MySQL server to another

If it were me, I would look at building it as a client/server app. Build a simple server piece that laptop clients connect to, which handles the syncranization of the data. I have built a few like this in the past (working on another now) and it works great. Basically, all you have to do is track which records have not been synced each way and then have the client server do it when they connect. -- Lamont R.
