Re: Add/Edit/Delete Form Woes
http://localhost/geowebworks/php/exp3.php?CCode=caf That looks right; caf (for continent-Africa) is the value for the CCode field on the Africa row. But if I type something in the form and press submit, the change isn't reflected in my MySQL table. My thought is that the tutorial used the column id as int auto_increment . When you changed to CCode (a char), you didn't quote it in sql. So this line: $sql = UPDATE Continents SET CCode='$CCode',Name1='$Name1',Type1='$Type1',Group='$Group',Hemisphere='$Hemisphere',ID1='$ID1' WHERE CCode=$CCode; Should be changed to $sql = UPDATE Continents SET CCode='$CCode',Name1='$Name1',Type1='$Type1',Group='$Group',Hemisphere='$Hemisphere',ID1='$ID1' WHERE CCode='$CCode'; Repeat everywhere you're using CCode without quotes.

Re: Add/Edit/Delete Form Woes
$sql = UPDATE Continents SET CCode='$CCode',Name1='$Name1',Type1='$Type1',Group='$Group',Hemisphere='$Hemisphere',ID1='$ID1' Also, this has a pretty severe logic flaw.

If so, a simple, efficient way is to add an auto_increment column to your students table, so each name is given a unique ID. Then, when results are returned, you can create a link for each student that includes the student's ID. If this isn't the case, and you really want to do a statement like that above, how about: SELECT * FROM Students WHERE LastName='Smith' and FirstName LIKE 'J%'; or worse, SELECT * FROM Students WHERE concat(LastName, , , FirstName) LIKE 'Smith, J%'; Ryan Fox sql, query, sausage - 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?

My problem is coming from the following two tables: snip Making indexes smaller will help. Does it need to be varchar(50)? Also, I'd consider creating a numeric auto_increment primary key on your NewSequence table, and using it to relate the 2 tables together. It may make for some more complex SQL statements to describe the relationship, but you'll gain the time back in performance. Consider using the following. CREATE TABLE NewSequence ( id int(11) not null auto_increment, Seq_ID varchar(50) NOT NULL, GenBank_Acc varchar(10), Organismvarchar(50) NOT NULL, Seq_Type enum(EST,GSS,EST Contig,EST Singlet,GSS Contig,GSS Singlet,GSS Plasmid Contig,Protein) NOT NULL, Seq_Length int NOT NULL, Seq_Title textNOT NULL, Comment text, Entry_Date dateNOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id), UNIQUE (Seq_ID), UNIQUE (GenBank_Acc), INDEX (Seq_Type), INDEX (Organism) ); CREATE TABLE NewSequence_Homolog ( id int(11) NOT NULL, Homolog_PID int NOT NULL, Homolog_Descvarchar(50) NOT NULL, Homolog_Species varchar(50), PRIMARY KEY (id, Homolog_PID) ); This would make your example query: select count(*) from NewSequence s left join NewSequence_Homolog h on s.id = h.id; And this would run much quicker, as instead of searching through 50 character indexes for each table, it would only have to look at 11 digit indexes.

Re: The dreaded move from Oracle to MySQL
Can you explain this procedure to me a little better or point me to something I can read? I still have to convince the person who manages the Oracle box to open up an NFS share. The point of using NFS to transfer the files from the oracle box to the mysql box is to avoid copying the data twice. If this isn't possible (because the oracle box doesn't already have nfs set up, and the admin doesn't want to make changes...), you can copy the data via any other means. CD-R's, DLT, FTP, scp, wget, . NFS would likely be the easiest to use, and cuts out an intermediate step of copying the data to a second location, but it is not necessary. SQL Ryan Another way we could increase load times would be to use 4 scripts to load data from 4 tables at once. We have the bandwith to handle that and the MySQL box seems to be handling request just fine at 11,000 inserts its still not tapping out both procs or killing the disk I/O. Though I don't think you'd see much (any?) speed up by doing this, I'll defer to the good judgement of other list members than have more data than me. - 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: MySQL: Problem Installing on RH 7.3
First, nice username :) Anyhow, use the /etc/init.d/mysqld script as root to start/stop mysql, not the safe_mysqld binary. The init.d script really calls the safe_mysqld binary, but ti also makes a couple sanity checks like ensuring that the initial database files exist and are owned by the proper user. Example: # /etc/init.d/mysqld start This should get you past the problem you are currently having, which is that mysqld can't find it's database files.

Re: why too long entries get _cut_ without error
Doesn't matter: If you assign a value to a CHAR or VARCHAR column that exceeds the column's maximum length, the value is truncated to fit. ok, so it isn't depending on fixed length as you first said, and the reason for it is just the simple design of sql, right? As I see it, the question is what should an SQL server do in this case of a value being assigned to a CHAR (or VARCHAR) column that exceeds the column's maximum length. The current action is that this value is truncated to fit the column. The other option would be to automagically expand the column's length so the value would fit. Despite what the original poster may think, they _really_ don't want that to happen. Apart from applications that depend on only receiving a certain length string from a query (think buffer overflow), having an insert unexpected alter an indexed char column on a 200,000 row table would be A Bad Thing. I wouldn't be terribly opposed to having an option to be set to allow this, but it shouldn't be on by default, and most MySQL users who can read the manual and find the option to do this should already know why this is a bad thing and not want to use it.

Re: MySQL on Win2000
- Original Message - From: Alex Shi [EMAIL PROTECTED] Okay, I will try MySQL GUI later BTW, do I have to use ODBC if I use PHP? I'm told PHP has its own very API for MySQL... You can access MySQL from PHP using PHP's ODBC functions (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.odbc.php), it's MySQL functions (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php), or an abstration layer such as ADODB (http://php.weblogs.com/adodb) The latter might be the best, as you trade a tiny loss of speed (but not nearly as much as when using odbc) for the ability to migrate to or support other databases than MySQL easily.

Re: mysql round problem
From : http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/manual_Reference.html#Fun ctions ROUND(X) Returns the argument X, rounded to the nearest integer: mysql select ROUND(-1.23); - -1 mysql select ROUND(-1.58); - -2 mysql select ROUND(1.58); - 2 Note that the behavior of ROUND() when the argument is half way between two integers depends on the C library implementation. Some round to the nearest even number, always up, always down, or always towards zero. If you need one kind of rounding, you should use a well-defined function like TRUNCATE() or FLOOR() instead. ROUND(X,D) Returns the argument X, rounded to a number with D decimals. If D is 0, the result will have no decimal point or fractional part: Also, From the mailing list: Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) Ryan Fox - Original Message - From: Attila Soki [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 10, 2001 12:40 PM Subject: mysql round problem hi, is this bug already in buglist, maybe in newer verisons of mysql is already corrected? if yes then please let me know please from what version. the probmlem: select round(9.065,2) ++ | round(9.065,2) | ++ | 9,06 | ++ why not 9,07 ?? cheers, Attila Soki - 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: Php connection with mysql?
In your situation, MySQL sees the client to be the web server, as it is the box that connects to the database and executes queries. If you need finer granualarity on the access controls at the MySQL level, you can pass different usernames/passwords to MySQL through the php mysql_connect() function dependant on what user is authenticated in to your web server. If you need to restrict clients on a per-IP basis, you can do this at the php level by checking the $REMOTE_ADDR variable and acting accordingly. Hope this helps, Ryan Fox - Original Message - From: Wee Chua [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a question regarding the client IP address between PHP and MySql. The built-in mysql database have different privilege tables. When I log on to mysql through the internet browser, does mysql know where I am connecting from if I use mysq_connect(.) function? From what I see, this function doesn't tell where I am connecting from, if this is true, those privilege tables are not helping to check on the privileges if the client is from browser. Does it have any other ways to tell mysql server where the client is connection from besides default localhost?

Re: How do temporary tables die?
How do tamporary tables die? Is there a time limit, og do I have to drop them manually? They are dropped when the client connection that created them disconnects. They can also be dropped manually.

Re: Data Normalization Paradox
Among other criteria, it mentions that in first order normalization No repeating groups of data are allowed. It then gives a table with 3 rows of data, and shows that one of the columns (company name) has the same entry in two of the rows. It says this table is not in 1st normal form. For the correct way of doing it, it shows the same table, with that column changed to (company name id) and links it to another table that has two columns, company name id, and company id. Right. The main reasons for doing this are to minimize data storage space (the number '1' takes far less space to store than the string 'Foo Company'), ensure data integrity (make sure you don't have entries such as 'Foo Company' and 'foo company'), and to speed queries (matching integers can be performed by the sql server MUCH qiucker than matching strings).
