I've heard or read about the headers somewhere but right now I sure could
use pointing in the direction of a step-by-step tutorial for extracting my
data into a CSV file and, of course, setting up the PHP file to handle it
correctly.

Subject: [PHP-DB] Save mySQL data into a CSV file.
Importance: High
Hi,
I have a table with 1,008 columns in it and at it's peak it has up to 500
rows of data.
I want to enable my client to click on a link and the next thing they are
prompted with is 'Save or Open' (the CSV file).
The data will be compiled into a comma delimited CSV file but rather than
be
printed to the screen it would be best if the browser popped up asking
where
to save the 'filename.csv' file to. Once saved, the file can be opened in
Excel for analysis.
Where do I start to do this?
Thanks
Martin

RE: [PHP-DB] Save mySQL data into a CSV file.
do a var_dump($result_set) to see what $result_set contains (if it's
actually and array.
(did you implement the code given as is? if not AND you have put line-11
in a function and $result_set as a global variable then you need to
define $result_set as a global inside the function.)

[PHP-DB] RE: Save mySQL data into a CSV file.
Hi, You can use a content header to instruct the browser to treat output as an attachment for saving. Use something like the following: ?php header(Content-type: text/plain); header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=filename.csv); ? (These *must* be the first lines output by your script) Then in the body of the script, do something like this: ?php echo $var1,$var2,$var3\n; ? Note the commas between each value, and also the '\n' which sends a newline to end each row. If the user is running Windows with Excel installed, they will be given a choice of opening the file in Excel or saving it. This works for me using Internet Explorer. Mozilla appends a .txt to the filename (so you get 'filename.csv.txt'). Does anyone else know how to prevent the .txt being added by Mozilla? Hope this helps, Colin Williams. -Original Message- From: Martin E. Koss [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 June 2003 13:53 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Save mySQL data into a CSV file.

[PHP-DB] Password generator
Hi people,
I have to make a password generator, but i have a little problem.
- It needs to generate password 8 characters long, and including 1 or 2
special characters(like #$%*@).
- Those special characters can never appear as the first or last
character in the string... anywhere between is fine.
I have a password generator script now that does the first thing... but
the special character can be in front or back of the string wich it
shouldnt.. i have been looking on the web for this but i havent found
the answer. Below is my scripts so far..
Any help is appreciated, thanks for your time,
Best regards,
Davy Obdam

// A function to generate random alphanumeric passwords in PHP
// It expects to be passed a desired password length, but it
// none is passed the default is set to 8 (you can change this)

// for the password. Note that the number 0 and the letter
// 'O' have been removed to avoid confusion between the two.
// The same is true of 'I' and 1
$allowable_characters = abcdefghefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789%#*;
// We see how many characters are in the allowable list
$ps_len = strlen($allowable_characters);
// Seed the random number generator with the microtime stamp

// Declare the password as a blank string.

// Each iteration, pick a random character from the
// allowable string and append it to the password.

[PHP-DB] MySQL Transaction
A question was raised on the MySQL list about implementing transactions with PHP. I had planned on them for an upcoming project but I'd yet to figure out how I'd coordinate things. The original author's solution (slightly altered) was to make an array with all the queries and loop through them, setting a boolean flag and exiting the loop if a query fails. Testing for the value of the flag would execute a commit or rollback according to its value. I think this is a decent solution, but I'm wondering what some of you are using. A search of the Classes Repository yielded only one class, the comments for which are written in Spanish. I've included a link below for those who are interested. http://promoxy.mirrors.phpclasses.org/browse.html/file/3077.html Edward Dudlik Becoming Digital www.becomingdigital.com -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Tim, You need to name your multiple select box as an array (e.g. selectThis[]). The values will be passed as an array to the next page. You then need to iterate over that array and pass the values into the database. There's plenty of info on how to pull this off in the archives on PHP.NET just search for select box or multiple select or the like and you should get plenty of hits with code and summaries and the whole smash.

Hello from North Central University in Minneapolis. I have two forms.

The first is a credit registration form which students fill out before starting a ministry. The second is a credit evaluation form which students fill out after their ministry is over. Often, when students fill out the registration form, they don't have accurate information regarding their ministry assignment. So the information they enter into the evaluation form takes precedent in terms of accuracy. I would like the data from the evaluation form to update the student's record (for those fields which overlap). What I don't want is the evaluation form to create a new record, because then I would have two records for each student. How do I: 1) check the table to see if the student's ID has already been entered, then 2) update the fields in that record with the new data from the evaluation form?

Hi people,
I have to make a password generator, but i have a little problem.
- It needs to generate password 8 characters long, and including 1 or 2
special characters(like #$%*@).
- Those special characters can never appear as the first or last
character in the string... anywhere between is fine.
I have a password generator script now that does the first thing... but
the special character can be in front or back of the string wich it
shouldnt.. i have been looking on the web for this but i havent found
the answer. Below is my scripts so far..
Any help is appreciated, thanks for your time,
Best regards,
Davy Obdam

Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Transaction
Becoming Digital wrote: A question was raised on the MySQL list about implementing transactions with PHP. I had planned on them for an upcoming project but I'd yet to figure out how I'd coordinate things. The original author's solution (slightly altered) was to make an array with all the queries and loop through them, setting a boolean flag and exiting the loop if a query fails. Testing for the value of the flag would execute a commit or rollback according to its value. Sounds like a good solution to me. Sounds like something that could easily be passed to a function with a flag to use a transaction or not on the group of queries. Sounds good. -- ---John Holmes...

RE: [PHP-DB] connecting to mySQL - testing server specified does not map to the http://localhost/_MMServerScript/MMHTTPDB.php
PHP is for sure not installed correctly. I hand a similar problem when I did the install for the first time. It was a while agoand I don't remember clearly but I seem to remember that it had to do with mis-configuring apache for PHP. Honestly the best solution for all the time it would take is to just uninstall mySQL and PHP and go at it again following the directions closely. If you're looking for a handholding process through the installs the book Foundation Dreamweaver MX by Friends of Ed has a great opening on getting set up with PHP and mySQL.

Subject: [PHP-DB] Select Statement with output in different colors.
I have a php script that does some select statements, on mysql, and
outputs that to a table. I would like to change the color of the table
row depending upon one of the fields. The select statements are from a
syslog database that I have and I would like to highlight key events by
changing the colors for that row. Example would be MAJOR, yellow and
INFO, green. Does anybody have any examples of how to do this?

RE: [PHP-DB] Select Statement with output in different colors.
Thank you for the heads up. I did notice that is must have a ; after
every variable case entry, e.g. $bg = 'blue'; in order to work right.
That was at least how I had to get it working.
