RE: [PHP-DB] [Resolved] Unable to connect to MSSQL with PHP through a firewall

2004-01-31 Thread Ricky Boone
Okay, the problem was the MSSQL Client Tools wasn't installed.  Once it
was installed script connected perfectly.

What I had done prior to installing the MSSQL Client Tools was copied
ntwdblib.dll from the SQL Server to the Web Server.  According the the
PHP documentation for Microsoft SQL Server functions
 this was one of two ways of getting mssql
functions to work, the other being installing the Client Tools.  I had
not installed it initially due to the shear size of the installer I was
required to upload to the server, so I opted for just the DLL.

Apparently I was wrong, but perhaps the documentation needs to be
reworded to reflect that the Client Tools is the only way to get these
functions to work properly.

Thanks for the help.  :)

If you _have_ to get this in your query I'd say you have a flaw in your 
logic somewhere. However, you can do it in MySQL using these two queries.

SELECT @a:=0;

SELECT @a:[EMAIL PROTECTED], * FROM table;
This isn't very good SQL coding.
Sure it is. It's the question that's not very good.

If you use a database with sequences, built a temptable to put the data in 
temporarly, with an INT field at the begining, and a sequence to have the 
autoincremental.

Very easy, and compatile with any relational DB. :-)
Exactly. That's why I gave a solution for MySQL.

Honestly, you could have taken the two seconds to try that and see if it 
worked instead of asking and waiting for an answer from a mailing list.

Use DATE_FORMAT() in your query. It's a MySQL function, so see the 
manual for the syntax. It's in chapter... crap.. they changed the 
chapter numbers recently... chapter 12.4.

Either that or use strtotime() on the MySQL date format to convert it 
into a unix timestamp and use the PHP date() function.

[PHP-DB] mysql date/time question

2004-01-31 Thread js
ok, 2 questions. first, how do i do a mysql query that orders by date? like, say i 
want to have 5 newest members who have signed up? i want it to display only 5 also. 
how do i do that? like this? 

$newestquery = "SELECT artid,title,artdate,artauthor FROM article WHERE artdate <= 
$today ORDER BY artdate DESC LIMIT 5";

and also, my next question is how do i format the display of date and time from how 
MySQL stores it to where i want it displayed differently in PHP? like, mysql will 
store it as -DD-MM  and i want it displayed in php as date("n.j.y.") and time 
displayed as $time = date("g:ia");   my time and date columns are 2 different columns 
in my TABLE, and i want to know how to format the date to enter into mysql and how to 
format it when i retrive it from mysql. thanks for your help.

I would not bet money on John Holmes bad coding.

More likely the original question was not well formulated.

RE: [PHP-DB] Problema con MySQL

2004-01-31 Thread Marco A. Ortiz
Buenos días a todos:

Espero que alguno de ustedes hable español y me pueda ayudar a descubrir qué
está mal en el siguiente código:

El objetivo de la función  es acceder a una base de Datos (MySQL) y mostrar
los registros que cumplan cierta condición.  Si no existe ningún registro
que cumpla la condición, despliega un mensaje informa al usuario de la
situación, de lo contrario, muestra en una tabla cada uno de los registro
encontrados acompañados de las opciones “Eliminar” y “Editar”.  

Por lo menos esto debería hacer. El problema es que no muestra el primero de
los registros que cumplen la condición.  Le he dado mil vueltas y no he
logrado encontrar el error.

function mostrar_articulos_admin($boletin)
{
if (!$boletin == NULL)
   {
   $conn = db_connect();
$query = "select id_articulo, titulo_articulo,
autor_articulo from articulo_boletin where id_boletin=$boletin";
$result = mysql_query($query, $conn);
$row = 0;   
$hay_arts = mysql_fetch_row ($result); 
if ($hay_arts)
{
echo "Artículos correspondientes al Boletín
$boletin";
echo "\n
\n
\n
Detalle
Artículo\n
Eliminar\n
Editar\n
";
while ($fila = mysql_fetch_array($result,
MYSQL_NUM)) 
   {
$row++;
echo "\n";
echo
"$fila[2]$fila[3]\n";
echo "
\n";
echo "
\n";
echo "\n";
}
echo "";
   }
else 
   {
echo "No existe ningún Artìculo asociado a este
Boletín.";
}
}
else 
{
echo "No ha indicado un número de Boletin Válido,

Is it possible to retreive the font size or view size from the browser.

In the browser it is possible to change the screenview (make it larger or
smaller for people with a visual aid). I would like to ineract my stylesheet
with these default settings.

Re: [PHP-DB] Row count in a query

2004-01-31 Thread Ignatius Reilly
The best way I can think of is:
- create a temporary table T with an autoincrement field + desired output
column structure
- perform a INSERT INTO T SELECT 0,  in the temp table
- you now have the desired result in your temp table

[PHP-DB] Row count in a query

2004-01-31 Thread Shaun
Hi,

Is it possible to have an incrementing row count in my query that is not
part of the table data?

i.e.

1  data  data
2  data  data
3  data  data
...

This has to be done in the query not the PHP!!

Thanks for your help
