[PHP-DB] Interbase queries
Hi I am new to using PHP with Interbase. If I want to issue a query, I use: $sth = ibase_query ($dbh, $sqlstmt); I am assuming this issues the query to the database, and commits at the same time? Do I need to release anything after having done this, or does it take care of that by itself?

[PHP-DB] mySQL help on win xp
i installed php and apache fine on my pc, but mysql is giving problems. in winmysqladmin, you cant create a adb on the databases tab. all that lets you do is flush threads, flush processes, etc. so i had to create my database through the mysql command line. also, phpMyAdmin doesnt work, it returns an auth error. but i know for definite the username and password. whats going on?? is it something to do with win xp and users or win xps firewall??? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] updating a column based on info from another coluimn? Desperate!
Hi All, This is OT but I am in need of serious help. I am rewriting URL's for a site and came across an issue with spaces in URLS having %20 applied to them. I can't seem to find a solution with mod_rewrite to get rid of the %20 and replace with - (hyphen) so I am hoping someone can help me here with an MySQL solution. I have over 4000 records in a table. I've added a new column in that table called newUrl Is it possible with a QUERY to take from the 'designers' column and write into the 'newUrl' column and replace spaces with - at the same time? I'm probably talking out my a$$ here but I am a little desperate for a solutions. Thanks in advance and again my apologies for the OT message. Aaron

Will urldecode() work for you on the PHP side or do you have to convert everything in the database? http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.urldecode.php > -Original Message- > From: Aaron Wolski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 3:14 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP-DB] updating a column based on info from > another coluimn? > Desperate! > > > Hi All, > > This is OT but I am in need of serious help. > > I am rewriting URL's for a site and came across an issue with > spaces in > URLS having %20 applied to them.

RE: [PHP-DB] updating a column based on info from another coluimn? Desperate!
This note from http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.rawurldecode.php might
explain what you're seeing if you're using urldecode()
"Note: rawurldecode() does not decode plus symbols ('+') into spaces.
urldecode() does. "
If you start out with $url = "The+Man+On+The+Moon" and you urldecode($url)
then you should, predictably, end up with The Man On The Moon.
If plus signs are a problem, you may need to implement a little bit of code
just to check the string for + then use either urldecode() or rawurldecode()
to get the output you want. Something like:
$position = stripos($urlFromDB, "+");
if($position === FALSE){
rawurldecode($url);
}
else(
urldecode($url);
}
or something along those lines. I'm just shooting from the hip here.
stripos() returns a boolean false so be careful there. Not sure if my if()
statement is right.

RE: [PHP-DB] updating a column based on info from another coluimn ? Desperate!
Sorry, I'm only reading half posts today. :)
If you want to turn your + into - you'll probably have to go through one
more step and do a preg_replace(). Like
$new_url = preg_replace("+","-",$url);
I think that'll work. Again, shooting from the hip and not testing. Yeah,
baby, livin' on the wild side!
Anyway, check out this page for additional info if you need it:
