Re: How do I find all the users that are new since my last login
Daevid Vincent wrote: I have a SQL challenge I'm not sure how to solve. But it's so common, I feel kind of stupid asking this... I have a 'user' table with 'login_date' which is an auto updated DATETIME column and a 'created_on' which is a DATETIME (but not updated after the record is created the first time) I want to show a list of users who are new since my last login. But the problem is that my last login changes for every page load (i.e. it is updated so that I can guestimate if a user is logged in still or not... I consider 10m to be the window, since rarely do users ever officially 'logout'). So I think I need to have a SQL query that only deals with the date, not the mins/secs? I'm just not sure the optimum way to do this. The other challenging part seems to me that as soon as 'login_date' is updated, then everyone that was 'new' is now 'old' because the login_date just got updated right? I kinda want the 'new' user status to persist for the whole session [or maybe even the whole day (that is, I could logout/in and those people would still show as new) -- but I can live with just being new for the session] How is this sort of thing usually handled? Do I need another column that isn't auto-updated and that just get's set upon each new 'login' session? Unlike a message board or web based email system, I CAN'T flag each user as viewed or something like that. This feature is for a network type scenario where a user can see new users added to their network of friends since the last time they logged in. Or so the Administrators can see all new users.

Question about mailing list protocals
I have been subscribed to this list for a couple of years now. I don't often respond and rarely ask questions, but I do read it every day and typically learn something new. Around the 13th of this month I suddenly stopped receiving the mailing list (though I was able to send a question to the list). Are email addresses dropped from the list if they are inactive for a given period of time? Can notices be sent out before that to inform the readers? I ended up simply having to resubscribe to the mailing list to start receiving it again.

stored procedure TYPE
*Disclaimer - this will be kind of vague mainly because I only vaguely recall the material. I am trying to create a stored procedure. Now I vaguely recall reading something that says I have to match a column type if I am messing with one. Something like I want to match a table column type... even if I don't know what it is. I think it was something like TYPE table.column... I'm not sure if it was only in a DECLARE or if I can set one of the INOUT vars to the column type as well. Hell I can't even remember if it was MySQL or something I read about while researching stored procedures in general and it dealt with a different database system Anyone have any ideas what the heck I am talking about or if it is even supported in MySQL? If it is - any help pointing me in the right general direction to get some information on it would be helpful. If it isn't - I will just make the datatype fixed. I have been looking over the MySQL manual pages on stored procedures, the articles on the MySQL developer zone and google (of course) and can't find it anywhere. -- life is a game... so have fun. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

If they don't have Charset UTF-8 in there, it won't work on REAL browsers (Mozilla based) Then, for reasons known only to Microsoft, you have to use a META tag to define the Charset for IE. MS will *ignore* the headers in favor of a heuristic whereby they count the number of characters in any given document which do/don't fit into various common charsets, and then they choose the charset based on that. Apparently, MS assumes that web-designers who can only handle META tags are smarter than developers who use header() function.

Odd mysqld behavior
System - Windows XP SP2 Version - 5.0.15-nt I just ran into some odd behavior with the mysqld on Windows XP... I am learning about Stored procedures and went to copy and paste an example provided in an article on dev.mysql.com (http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql-storedprocedures.html). I forgot to use db before hand but remembered DELIMITER // (came back to it after a break). When I went to create a stored procedure on the command line the mysqld stopped running (after the full SQL was input and enter hit). I had to manually restart it with net start mysql on the command line. I repeated this a couple of times just to see if it was a fluke - same thing happened every time. Is this expected behavior?

Re: clarification on stored procedure syntax
never mind - found the paragraph in the manual.. quote The |SQL SECURITY| characteristic can be used to specify whether the routine should be executed using the permissions of the user who creates the routine or the user who invokes it. The default value is |DEFINER|. This feature is new in SQL:2003. The creator or invoker must have permission to access the database with which the routine is associated. As of MySQL 5.0.3, it is necessary to have the |EXECUTE| privilege to be able to execute the routine. The user that must have this privilege is either the definer or invoker, depending on how the |SQL SECURITY| characteristic is set. /quote. Ligaya Turmelle wrote: Am I understanding this correctly?

Re: utf8 questions?
have you altered your php.ini file in the mbstring section? I don't know if it makes a difference but I have always changed my to: ; language for internal character representation. mbstring.language = utf8 ; internal/script encoding. mbstring.internal_encoding = utf8 and have never had a problem. D. wrote: Hi, this might not be a mysql problem, but hopefully someone will be able to answer, thanks in advance. I notice a lot of people had asked the same question and the typical response in the mailing list seemed to be, make sure you encode the data to utf-8 before insert into mysql..., or something similiar. I have tried that too, but somehow it didn't work out.. what i'm trying to do is, to make everything utf-8, so that there is no conversion between database - connection - php - output (at least on the server level) the first thing i did was to set mysql charset variables: character set client utf8 character set connection utf8 character set database utf8 character set results utf8 character set server utf8 character set system utf8 all database, tables are created in utf8 output HTML charset: utf-8 (I even set the php code to utf-8...dont know if that's useful...) case 1: when i input traditional chinese characters on internet explorer (charset utf-8) and store them into database, supposingly there's no need to go through any encoding conversion? (the browser will send the data in utf-8? i did a utf-8 validation, just to make sure all the data are utf-8 before i insert, and the data was utf-8 validated.) when I extract the data from mysql: 1. it works fine, almost all characters can display properly, except for some characters. (example: ? ?, will show up as ? ?) 2. NONE of the data showed up correctly in mysql query browser case 2: i inputed in a set of test data in mysql query browser, and it shows up properly in mysql query browser, but when i try to fetch the data from my php, and render it to browser( charset utf-8), it shows up ? (that's the problem other ppl are having i guess, but i have done all those encoding steps, did I?) phpMyAdmin (my version 2.6.1beta, and 2.6.1) behaves the same way mysql query browser does. just to make things less complicated, instead of getting data from browser, i tried to get from uft-8 encoded files (same bad result), and i tired to make the data contained in a variable inside the php code page(utf-8 encoded), same problem occured. and lastly, i tried to output the posted data back to browser(without going through database), internet explorer renders all characters properly. so it seems to me that i'm missing something on the php mysql communication level. is that so? other information: php 5.0.3 apache 2.0.53 windows xp sp2 mysql 4.1.10a with innoDB/utf8 default mysql query browser 1.1.6 phpMyAdmin 2.6.1 mysql mysqli I notice that phpMyAdmin doesn't have this problem when it displays the data it stores, probably this is not a mysql issue, (phpMyAmin works well with MySql Query Browser too, i must have missed something in php i guess), hopefully someone will be able to tell me, so my questions are: after setting mysql charset to utf-8, and beside making sure the data is encoded in utf-8 properly (which i think i did), what else do i need to do on the programming level? or could i have done wrong in some of the steps? or could i have not done some necessary steps to work with mysql charset features? and lastly, is it possible to develope an encoding conversion free program(at least on the server(s) level)? any inputs will be appreciated.

Re: query problem in num_row
Your not getting a valid result from your query. Add
if (!$result) { echo 'Bad query - message: ' . mysql_error();}
I think it will give you a syntax error on your query. MySQL syntax for
the LIMIT clause is:
[quote]
The LIMIT clause can be used to constrain the number of rows returned by
the SELECT statement. LIMIT takes one or two numeric arguments, which
must be integer constants.
With two arguments, the first argument specifies the offset of the first
row to return, and the second specifies the maximum number of rows to
return. The offset of the initial row is 0 (not 1):
mysql SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 5,10; # Retrieve rows 6-15

Re: PHP/MySQL Problem
Are you running the 2 queries at the same time? they should be run 1 at
a time. What does mysql_error() say? use it when you are checking the
result set (if (!$result) { echo Error: . mysql_error();}Are the
result sets being sent to 2 different identifiers? Just a few
possibilities.

Hi Guys,
I have a problem with MySQL in conjunction with PHP so
I also decided to post here:
I have a PHP script that contains two consecutive
MySQL queries, something like this:
Query 1: Delete some rows from Table A
Query 2: Insert some rows into Table A
The problem is, only Query 2 seems to be executed.
Query 1 is not executed at all.
I tried running the script with only Query 1 and it
worked. However, when I put back Query 2, then the
problem comes back.
What can be causing this problem? How do I solve this

Re: Advice on Database Schema Design
I think I get what you are trying to do and it sounds good (though I am still a beginner). The only thing I can think that might cause a problem is since you have more then a couple of tables you MAY have to write joins for all of them . Only you would know if you can do that and/or be comfortable doing it. To get a stronger idea though of your design I would need to see either a logical ER diagram or all of the creates (I am very visual so I like pictures). *shrugs* whether or not you want to pass those along is up to you. Respectfully, Ligaya Turmelle Robert A. Rosenberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I am converting a form that was originally designed to be Email Submitted into a Submit-to-PHP-Page Form (which will then insert the data into a MySQL Database). I expect no problems in actually scanning the submission to extract the data but I have some questions on the design of the Tables that I will need to define to store the data. I have done some research and have come up with a tentative design that I want to post here for critiquing. Here is what I have come up with. Each form will get assigned a sequence number (SubmitterID) that will identify the form submission in all the tables (thus linking them). There are a number of TextAreas where the user is requested to enter free form replies to questions. I am thinking that these should go into a separate table as Text fields of the correct size with SubmitterID as the Primary Key. That keeps the data away from the main table and thus only accessed when needed/requested as well as not bloating the size of the main table or slowing its retrieval/processing. There are a number of blocks of CheckBoxes on the form. While I could, in theory, use a SET column type to store them, I get the impression that a better way is to create a Many-to-One table for each block with the total contents of each row being the CheckBoxID and SubmitterID (in that order) as the Primary Key. A Index for SubmitterID would also be defined. This way I can do a WHERE on either Column and get Index Usage as opposed to needing to do a row-by-row lookup. I have the impression that doing a WHERE over a SET Column (especially when I'm looking for more than one value) is not a good or efficient idea. The CheckBoxID would map to a 3rd table to get the actual CheckBoxName. There are also two Select Tables (one for US States and one for Countries). While the States are passing the USPS 2-Letter State Codes, the Countries are passing the full Country Name as their OPTION VALUE=. I want to make a State Table and a Country Table using respectively the 2-Letter Code and a sequential reference number (which I will revise the Country OPTION tags to use as their VALUE) as the Primary Key with the State or Country Name as the other column. To create the reference key and populate the OPTION pages with it I plan to take the current HTML for these tags and read them into a Text Editor where I will then alter them into MySQL Insert Commands to populate the Table. Then using a one-shot QuickDirty PHP page, I will read the table and recreate the Option Statements which would the be CutPasted into the original HTML code replacing the old versions of the tags. The states go though the same Turn into INSERT Commands but there is no need for post processing or HTML Tag replacement. Of course all the Table Pointers would be defined as Foreign Keys to insure Referential Integrity. Am I making any mistakes in my design or am I on the correct track. I welcome any critique of my design or advice on how to improve it.

I noticed that you CCODE in the Nations table wasn't the same size as in the Continent table. Fixed that. Good luck! Respectfully, Ligaya Turmelle David Blomstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] OK, I've made some changes, and I'm still trying to figure out this foreign key stuff. This time, I'll focus on just two tables, named continents and nations. I put screen shots of their structure and some sample rows online at http://www.geoworld.org/try.gif It sounds like non-repeating numerals are generally preferred for use as primary keys, but letters can be used. I'd greatly prefer to use letters, because it's much more easier for me to match them with their respective countries and continents when working on related tables. But if this experiment fizzles out, too, I may abandon abbreviations and just use numerals for my primary keys. At any rate, I want to join the continents and nations tables via a shared column named CCode. In the continents table, it's designated a foreign key, and none of the codes repeat. In the nations table, some of the values do repeat - obviously, Canada and the U.S. both merit the abbreviation na (North America). If I understand correctly, I have to designate a column a unique index BEFORE I can make it a foreign key. I tried designating the CCode field on the table nations a unique index, without success. Is that because of the repeating values? I then tried to designate a column with non-repeating numerals a unique index, but that didn't work, either. I finally learned how to create a foreign key with phpMyAdmin, but that doesn't work, either. I put screenshots of my trials online at http://www.geoworld.org/fk.gif (The second table was then named nations2, but I've since renamed it to nations.)

Re: newbie question: best column type for other languages
Don't quote me on this but I don't think it makes a difference what datatypes you use with multiple languages (I never even considered it with English, Japanese and Korean) as long as the field is large enough to handle the multiple bytes. You might wish to check out the Unicode support pages of the manual. I also vaguely remember that when using an index on a multibyte column you have to be careful. Why - I can't remember (maybe it was for an older version) but you might wish to research it. Quote from manual under Unicode support: To save space with UTF8, use VARCHAR instead of CHAR. Otherwise, MySQL has to reserve 30 bytes for a CHAR(10) CHARACTER SET utf8 column, because that's the maximum possible length.

Re: MySql and php
You can do a simple if statement. Instead of using a foreach I would use a
while with list
Example in pseudocode:
(while(list($col1, $col2, $col3) = @mysql_fetch_row($resultID))
and then
if ($col3 == value1)
echo td stuff with bgcolor = whatever;
else
echo td stuff with bgcolor = something else;
end if
echo $col3;
make sense?

Re: GROUP BY across UNION
I am pretty new myself but can't you do it with a join? Like SELECT AVG(avg) FROM table_a, table_b GROUP BY id_field. Respectfully, Ligaya Turmelle John McCaskey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] First of all I am using mysql 4.0.18 and I am not free to upgrade to 4.1 or 5.0. I have two tables: table_a, and table_b these two tables have the same structure: CREATE table_a ( id_field mediumint(8) unsigned NOT NULL, avg float default NULL ) What I want to do is get the combined avg across table_a and table_b for each id value. So I tried doing (SELECT AVG(avg) FROM table_a) UNION (SELECT AVG(avg) FROM table_b) GROUP BY id_field; This however doesn't work. I can see why this is thinking about how a union should work mathematically but I'm left with no apparent way to directly get the avg across two tables. I know that I can take the avg from each along with the row count and then do a weighted average using those values, but I'd prefer not to have to do that. Any suggestions or am I stuck doing individual group bys on each table uninoning the results and then doing weighted averages on the matching pairs? Here is what I'm talking about doing with the weighted averages incase it is unclear: (SELECT AVG(avg) AS avg_a, COUNT(id_field) AS count_a FROM table_a GROUP BY id_field) UNION (SELECT AVG(avg) AS avg_b, COUNT(id_field) AS count_b FROM table_b GROUP BY id_field); Then I would match up the results and compute total_avg = (avg_a*count_a + avg_b*count_b)/(count_a+count_b).

Hi Rhino
If your table name is bar and it is in a database named foo, the
following
commands will show you the columns in that table:
describe foo.bar;
-OR-
show columns from foo.bar;
If you try either command on a table that does not exist, you get an
error
message. Therefore, the query only returns the fields if the table
exists.
Is that what you wanted? That's how I understood your question
yes, this is what i want, now to get the name of fields and i should use
MYSQL_FIELD with the result returned from the query like
MYSQL_RES * res;
MYSQL_FIELD *field;
mysql_query(my, show columns from foo.bar);
res = mysql_use_result(my);
for (i:= 0; i=mysql_num_rows(res); i++)
{
field=mysql_fetch_field_direct(res,i);
do ant thing with field
Right
