Re: [PHP-DB] Problem connecting to db on Linux

[David Sullivan]

Hey,

I didn't have to do any special configuring. All I did was setup the root 
password, login via the mysql console client and create my databases, then 
use mysql_connect() and mysql_select_db() like you said. What have you done 
other than just installing it?

 Hi all,

 I've been working with PHP/MySQL on Win NT and Win 2000 for a few weeks.
 I've now set up a Linux machine (Mandrake 8.1 on Dell laptop) and have
 moved my files across.

 I use an include file which logs on to the MySQL server and then connects
 to the database. It performs the login ok but not the select db part.

 I tried creating a db using a php script and then selecting it and got the
 same problem.

 I'm new on Linux so it might be something in the configuration which needs
 working on.

 Any suggestions?

Re: [PHP-DB] Help in tokenizing a string

[David Sullivan]

I'm not sure why that isn't working, but this might do what you want:

$index = strrpos($im_file, \\);
$im = substr($im_file, $index + 1, strlen($im_file));


I just tested it out here and that works fine, $im = image.jpg

 Good day to all.

 I tried the following code from PHP's manual

  if (isset($submit))
  {
   if ($submit == Save)
   {
   echo $im_fileBR;
   $tok = strtok($im_file, \\);
   while ($tok)
   {
   echo $tokBR;
   $tok = strtok (\\);
   }
   }
  }

 I have the string $im_file =C:\\a_path\\image.jpg and I want to have
 into a variable (say it $im) just the filename part (image.jpg).
 The code above, returns me just a C: :((

 Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Re: [PHP-DB] How to upload image?

[David Sullivan]

For the form, use input name=myfile type=file
and as for handling where the file get saved on the server-side, see:

 Hi there everyone,

 I'm writing an update utility for a database system, but I need to give the
 user the option to select a file from their machine to upload to the server
 (Not to the DB itself, but an images dir), what is the best way of doing
 this in PHP so that it brings up a file requestor too?

 Thanks for your help everyone :-)
