[PHP-DB] Capturing a sql query
I'm trying to capture a sql query and save it to the
database. Not as a stored procedure , more a URL
parameter string , to be called up at will.
I have this code that I believe will take the URL,
just not sure how to go about grabbing it. I think
maybe a hidden form with POST.
I'm open to any ideas or help. :)
$ReturnPage = isset($_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]) ?
$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI] : ;
if(!strlen($ReturnPage)) {
$ReturnPage = isset($_SERVER[SCRIPT_NAME]) ?
$_SERVER[SCRIPT_NAME] : ;
$QueryString = CCGetQueryString(QueryString, );
if($QueryString !== )
$ReturnPage .= ? . $QueryString;
Thank you,
Stuart

[PHP-DB] I have a query
I have a query regarding mysql and PHP ... here it is I know there is a field data exisiting in one of the tables in the present database; I want to know whether there is any sql or PHP function with which I can find out in which table the field data is present for example . I have database called asset in which 5 table are present namely asset1,asset2,asset3,asset4,asset5... all the tables have the same schema structure and common field names ,equal no of columns(but not the equal number of rows) I want to know ,in which table among the above is having a particular field data for example ...the column name is asset_loc ( common for all the tables,but no constraints ,no relation with other tables) I want to know if the asset_loc from any table has the data 'heaven' it should be something like this select * from asset1,asset2,asset3,asset4,asset5 where asset_loc='heaven'; Thanks, waiting for a quick response from a great list.

Re: [PHP-DB] Capturing a sql query
Let me explain what I'm trying to emulate. If you have seen any of the major job boards, they allow you to save search agents. Those agents at least on Monster, Dice, HotJobs I think , spare you the hassle of going to the search page and reentering the criteria. The agents can act in various ways: 1-If you are on the site , you can execute from there. 2-You can also have it emailed and that comes in two flavors. a- the query is run for you and the results are sent in an email b-an email goes out with a link to a page, you hit view (on Monster) and your agent returns results. My only guess is that the query is what's being grabbed and saved. You raise a good point about security , but users don't actually get to see the query. All they are getting is the results , from the one they decided to save.

Re: [PHP-DB] Capturing a sql query
Stuart, in this case what i would do is store the keywords, when they are on the site they can click thier saved searches and it will basically do an auto search with the saved keywords. For the email way i think they probably save the keywords as well but are using a cron job to fetch the results and form the email. Let me take a look at one of these sites to see what exactly you want and can give a better explanation. -- Joseph Crawford Jr. Codebowl Solutions [EMAIL PROTECTED] 802-558-5247 For a GMail account contact me OFF-LIST -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió en el mensaje news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] cast.net... To the list: I've googled and searched the manual, but I'm still looking for a simple solution to a simple problem. I have a MySQL database of text stories in longtext MySQL fields. These stories have simple returns (\r) in them and no other formatting. I need to use these stories both for web and print production, so I need to be able to get the text out of MySQL via PHP and have those returns change to P tags. But I also need to keep those extra P tags out of the database file so the text can be exported and poured into a layout program.

Re: [PHP-DB] I have a query
I have database called asset
in which 5 table are present namely asset1,asset2,asset3,asset4,asset5...
all the tables have the same schema structure and common field names ,equal no of
columns(but not the equal number of rows)
why on earth would you do this?
rather i would create a database named site or something and a table
called asset_groups, here i would have
id (int 11 auto_increment primary_key)
title (varchar 50)
this is where i would store Asset1, Asset2 etc...
i would then have a table called assets and have that be sturectured like so
id (int 11 auto_increment primary_key)
asset (int 11) (ID of the asset_group)
whatever else you want for column names.
$result = mysql_query(SELECT id, title FROM asset_groups as ag INNER
JOIN assets a ON ag.id=a.asset WHERE a.asset_loc='heaven');
while($data=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
// returned a row, display it or whatever
}
$result = null;
$data = null;
this would return a row containing everything you want and would allow
you to loop through the rows so you can display them or whatever

[PHP-DB] Names with apostrophe's
Hello, I could use some help here. I have an entry in the MySQL, that use an apostrophe, for example lets call it O'Reilly. I have added addslashes to my insert statement so MySQL accepts it with out complaining. The problem I am having is I use this information O'Reilly in a GET URL somewhere else in the site. For example here's my link: echo(tda href='user_book_results_detail.php?book=$row[book]$row[book]/a/ td); When I mouse over and view the URL, PHP thinks the apostrophe (single quote) is the end and quits. I know I need to include a back slash or escape this character but I am not entirely sure how I do it? Suggestions?

RE: [PHP-DB] Names with apostrophe's
Try: Echo tda href=\user_book_results_detail.php?book=$row[book]\$row[book]\/a/t d; I'm dubious on the $row[book] bit took, maybe you meant $row[book] or $row[$book]. Anyway, you didn't have a closing quote on the HREF, you don't need the ( and ) on the echo, you used the ' instead of for the HREF (which is probably allowed but I don't like it myself). As for apostrophes, you should be able to escape them with \' If you use ' to start an echo or href, then another ' is going to close it. If you use to open an echo or href, then the ' should go through ok, or maybe require a \' but should still be ok. When you insert apostrophes into a database, use '' to escape it (I believe that works in MySQL as well as other DBs), don't use \' when inserting into a DB. Your question is a little cloudy, but maybe that helped clarify a few things for you. -TG -Original Message- From: Craig Hoffman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 29, 2004 2:23 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Names with apostrophe's Hello, I could use some help here.
