Re: [PHP-DB] mysql field not resolving comaparison condition for zip code locator
Jennifer is correct, the query that you have below will never return anything. The last two AND statements exclude each other. You need to change the greater than and less than signs on them and try it again. For now, don t take what the developer is telling you as the gospel, go with what the logic tells you. It is not possible to have a number that is both larger then 37.6 AND smaller then 37.5, it just isn't going to happen.

RE: [PHP-DB] Browser-Trouble with Query
Sounds like you had a cache problem going on. I wanted to suggest that but
got tied up on something else. Whenever you see the same results, even
though you are changing the code, try and delete the cache files in the
browser, exit the browser, then come back in and try it again. Usually this
clears the problem.

Re: [PHP-DB] Real Killer App!
Just a guess, but do you have an index on the table that you are using to store the URLs that still need to be parsed? This table is going to get huge! And if you do not delete the URL that you just parsed from the list it will grow even faster. And if you do not have an index on that table and you are doing a table scan to see if the new URL is in it or not, this is going to take longer and longer to complete every time you process another URL. This is because this temp table of URLs to process will always get larger, and will rarely go down in size because you add about 5+ new URLs for every one that you process. But then again, we don't know for sure on anything without seeing 'some' code. So far we have not seen any so everything is total speculation and guessing. I would be interested in seeing the code that handles the processing of the URLs once you cull them from a web page.

I've got everything functionally working it seems like, but there is a very strange problem I can't nail down. If I put in an entry and start the crawler it goes great through the first loop. It gets the url, gets the page info, puts it in the database, and then parses all of the links out and puts them raw into the database. On the second loop it picks up all the new stuff and does the same thing. By the time the second loop is completed I'll have just over 300 items in the database. On the third loop is where the problem starts. Once it gets into the third loop, it starts to slow down a lot. Then, after a while, if I'm running from the command line, it'll just go to a command prompt. If I'm running in a browser, it returns a document contains no data error. This is with php 4.3.1 on a win2000 server. Haven't tried it on a linux box yet, but I'd rather run it on the windows server since it's bigger and has plenty of cpu, memory, and raid space. It's almost like the thing is getting confused when it starts to get more than 300 entries in the database. Any ideas out there as to what would cause this kind of problem? Nick Can you post some code? Are your script timeouts set appropriately? Does memory/CPU useage increase dramatically or are there any other symptoms of where it is choking...? What DB is it updating? What does the database tell you is happening when it starts choking? What do debug messages tell you wrt finding the bottleneck? Does it happen always no matter what start point is used? Are you using recursive functions? Sorry lots of questions but no answers... :) Cheers Rich Recognizing that this script would take a long time to run I'm using set_time_limit(0) in it so a timeout doesn't become an issue. The server has 1.5 gig of memory and is a dual processor 1GHz PIII. I have never seen it get over 15% cpu usage, even while this is going on, and it never gets anywhere near full memory usage. The tax on the system itself is actually negligable. There are no symptoms that I can find to indicate where the chokepoint might be. It seems to be when the DB reaches a certain size, but 300 or so records should be a piece of cake for it. As far as the debug backtrace, there really isn't anything there that stands out. It's not an issue with a variable, something is going wrong in the execution either of php, or a sql query. I'm not finding any errors in the mysql error log, or anywhere else. Basically the prog is in two parts. First, it goes and gets the current contents of the DB, one record at a time, and checks it. If it meets the criteria it is then indexed or reindexed. If it is indexed, then it goes to the second part. This is where it strips any links from the page and puts them in the DB for indexing, if thery're not already there. When it dies, this is where it dies. I'll get the UPDATING: titleurl message that comes up when it does an update, but at that point, where it is going into strip links, it dies right there. Nick
Re: [PHP-DB] Define()
The reason it doesn't work may go beyond PHP. You are trying to make an HREF point to an exact location on your hard drive. When the user of your web page clicks the link, they do not have that location on their system so it will fail. Always use relative locations for links. Then once you get that ironed out, skip the defines, just use the variables. Change the code to be: $doc_dir = /store/; $image_dir = /images/; $control_dir = /control/; ?php echo $control_dir ?verify_login.php a href=?php echo $doc_dir ?click here/a and don't forget the 'php' after the ?

Re: [PHP-DB] some php and database questions!
You are putting too much thought into this. Don't get reporting mixed up with computing. When your admin updates the games and designates who won the game, put a 1 in a column next to the winning team and a 0 next to the looser, if they tie, enter a 1 next to both teams. Then when you want to see a list of who got the most right that week, make a query that matches the choice the player made with the team they chose and count it if there is a 1 in this new column. Most of your work is going to be in writing queries that bring back the right totals. If you try to write a routine to add values to a 'total' column if a given team wins, it just might work. But what if you accidently runit twice or forget to run it. Your results will not be accurate. You also asked about locking people out after a given time. This is very easy, when they fill out a form to pick winners, that form has to be submitted to a PHP script for processing, this is where you check to see if the cut-off time has passed. If so, then you display a message telling them that they are too late and do not accept the entries. Bottom line is leave the calculations to the report (web page) and the data to the database. Jim Hunter ---Original Message--- From: JeRRy Date: Tuesday, March 11, 2003 17:23:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] some php and database questions! Hi, I am currently running a tipping competition where people tip the team they think will win the given game or pick the draw. Each correct entry gets +1 point, each incorrect entry gets 0 points. There is 8 games a round and people submit their entries via a PHP page that updates a mysql database. Now for the admin side of things, to make it easier for admins to update records accordingly without needing to manually add them up one by one. I want a system I can go into where I select the winners of each round. If a tipster has any matches it will credit their accounts +1 for each correct entry and 0 for each incorrect entry. There is 8 games a round (on a weekend) .. So how would I get the entries to update to the correct amount when I select the winners. I'd need the admin page to be something like this. Game1 : team 1 team 2 draw Game2 : team 3 team 4 draw and so on, Probably a drop down menu to select the winner or draw. So what query would I need or PHP code to update the database with +1 for correct matches and 0 for incorrect? Or would I be better to have 1 page per game? I need a safe and reliable way of doing it. Also I am going to have a tipster tally. They will be in order of total score. So order will change from week to week, how can I auto-sort a list using PHP to display on a page without it messing up the score with someone else. So I need the top score to go to the top but take the name also and not just the score, any ideas? For instance: Week 1 bob 7 judy 6 Amanda 5 . Week 2 Judy 10 Amanda 9 bob 8 From week 1 to 2 bob needs to drop down the bottom, Judy needs to move up one and Amanda is to also move up one. I need it to be automatic instead of me having to do it manually. Any ideas? (I think this was discussed about a month ago, if so I appologise for the repeat but the help is very appreciated.) Lastly the games in the week are different from others. There is normally a Friday night games, a few Saturday games and Saturday Night and a few Sunday games. I really don't want to lock people out if they don't submit a tip before the first game. But I do want to lock out any tips made for a game that has already started. For instance: It's 8:05 PM and there was a game to start at 7PM I want to lock out the tips for the first game but allow tips for the remaining games. How can I lock people out? Sure I could remove the option on the page but that does not stop people from loading the page just before the start of the game and sitting on it till the game has finished and than submitting their tips. I need another way, dynamic pages? Or something else? If the easiest option is to lock people right out after the first game has started I will, but I'd prefer to not do that. Feel free to use any database structure you like, any table names are ok. As long as you define what you mean so I can understand what you mean and I can try for myself.

Re: [PHP-DB] retrieve last n records
If it were me I would tackle this in two parts. First create a SQL statement that returns the data you want, you say you can do this so the first part is already finished. Then stuff the data into an array and when you go to display the data to the user, that is when you sort it into the chosen sort order. It is not that hard to sort an array and you might be able to find a class already written to do this on the PHP classes web site. You might even go so far as to display the info in a table that allows the user to click on a column heading and re-sort the data on-the-fly without a round trip to the server. This might add a nice touch to your UI without too much effort.

Re: [PHP-DB] multiple pages
The simplest way is to use the LIMIT keyword in your SQL statement. Set, or
allow the user to set, the number of items to show at one time, then keep
this number as a hidden field and use it to determine what record to go to
when they click the page number or the next button. So a sample would look
like:
$NumOfRecs = 30; // or any value that the user might choose or whatever you
want
$start = ($PageToDisplay * $NumOfRecs) - $NumOfRecs;
SQLtext = select blah blah blah from mytable limit $start, $NumOfRecs;
{ get the data and display the page}
with this method there is no management except to keep track of the current
page and the number of records to display. This can be done with hidden form
fields or any other way you choose (cookies, global vars, etc).
Hope this helps.

There is a single quote and semicolon on the line under /html that I
thought would be defining the end of the assignment.
Should I have used double quotes instead of single?

There aren't any closing quotes on your $message variable or semicolon
to tell the parser that you're done with the assignment statement.

Re: [PHP-DB] Credit Card Info Cryptography
There is a simple alternative that you might not be aware of, and that is use Advantage Database (I am assuming that you are using MySQL right now). You can get a free version to try and it provides encryption at the table level. There is a PHP interface for it and everything can be found at www advantage-database.com and go the the developers download area. I have been using it in my everyday development for about 4 years and I love it. I just recently saw that they offer a PHP interface to it as well as an ODBC, VB, Delphi, C++ Builder, JBuilder etc. Store the credit card info in Advantage and leave the rest of your data where you have it. Just a thought...

Re: [PHP-DB] Flush database
First make sure that you are storing the IP and the time it was saved in the database. Then I would have 3 queries: 1) a query to see if the IP address is in the database and less then an hour old. 2) a query to save the IP and time into the database 3) a query to delete all entries over 1 hour old. Then when you get a new visitor see if the IP address is in the database and is not less then 1 hour old. Once it clears that test, save the IP and time, then always run the delete query to clear out entries. If you have a lot of traffic to your site you are going to generate a lot of database hits. Good luck.

If they come back after an hour has passed they can view the contents of that page. but only after an hour has passed.

RE: [PHP-DB] not a valid MySQL result
Change your query to be: $query_cat = select concat(author_names, ' ', author_surnames) as somenewcolname from author, author-cat where author_cat.cat_code = $code and author.author_code = author-cat.author_code; Change somenewcolname to whatever you want the column to be called or leave the as somenewcolname part off if you don't care what the column name is. This should help.

Hi Couple of points, you probably have an SQL error, I use echo $query; echo 'br'.mysql_error(); which shows the query and the error you use 'author-cat' in the table name and 'author_cat' and 'author-cat' in the where clause which will throw an error. *** Wilmar Pérez Network Administrator Library System Tel: ++57(4)2105145 University of Antioquia Medellín - Colombia 2002 *** -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php .
Re: [PHP-DB] not a valid MySQL result
Oops, you have one more error that I see, one one line you reference author-cat as a table name and on another you refer to it as author_cat. Make the appropriate change and try it again. One of the table references is wrong and will generate a missing table error.

Re: [PHP-DB] Can't see the results
Your problem seems to stem from the $content .= $row; $row is an Array and
you must use an index to get at any given value it holds. If you need all of
the values in $row, use the count() function to get the number of elements
(columns in this case), then loop through them adding them to $content along
with any separators (IE: commas or semi colons or spaces) etc. the code
might look like this:
$content = ; // I like to make sure that the variable is always
initialized to something before I use it.
$num_results_cat = mysql_num_rows($result_cat);
for ($i=0; $i $num_results_cat; $i++)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$num_of_cols = count($row);
for ($x=0; $x$num_of_cols; $x++)
{
$content .= , .$row[$x];
}
}
This will allow you to loop through every row in the query and add every
column to the $content variable.

Subject: [PHP-DB] Can't see the results
Hello guys
Thanks to all those you helped me with y the question I made before (not a
valid MySQL result) it's working now.
Now, I want to display the result of my search with the following code:
if($code){
$query_cat = select author.author_names || ' '|| author.author_surnames
as full_name from author, authorxcat
where authorxcat.cat_code = $code
and author.author_code = authorxcat.author_code
or die($mysql_error());
$result_cat = mysql_query($query_cat);
$num_results_cat = mysql_num_rows($result_cat);
for ($i=0; $i $num_results_cat; $i++)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$content .= $row;
/*
$content .= htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($row[author_names]))
. .htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($row [author_surnames])).br;*/
}
}
But I just get the following:
ArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArray
I also tried to do it commenting the $content .= $row; and uncommenting
the lines that are commented in the code but I just get a blank page.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Re: [PHP-DB] best way to stare true, false
The smallest amount of database storage is going to be with a TinyInt and if you set up two constants to represent TRUE and FALSE then all your code will read correctly and will store correctly. EG: define(TRUE, 1); define(FALSE, 0); now you can use TRUE and FALSE in your program where you would use any variable (just don't use a dollar sign in front of them). This will make your code much easier to read in the long run. Plus, if you create a 'master global' file with all of your custom routines that you use in all programs, you could have these globals there as well avaialable to all your programs without thinking about it again. Remember, keep your code readable, runable and reusable!

RE: [PHP-DB] adding a space in mysql
Richard, You are correct. For Ron to achieve his goal, the SQL needs to be changed to: WHERE name = '$var' If you use the LIKE operator and have a trailing %, that is telling mySQL to match the first characters exactly and then match ANY trailing characters. If you use the equals operator, then you are guaranteed an exact match. If you are concerned about matching any case, then set both strings to UPPER case then do the compare.

Meaning that your query could just say WHERE name = '$var' (where $var is set to Wash)? According to the MySql manual, the equal comparison operator works on strings and numbers. But maybe text searches work differently than I thought and it will return strings wherever the letter combination wash appears. If that's the case I'm sure somebody will correct me and I'll learn something in the process. -Original Message- From: ron wallace [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 31, 2002 4:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] adding a space in mysql How can I add a space to the end of a varchar string in mysql?
