[PHP-DB] Re: moving a selection of records from one table to another (identicalin structure) table?

Hi all!
What is the best/easiest way to use PHP to move a selection of MySQL
records from one table to another table, which is in the same database
and which has the same structure as the first table?
here's a stab at it (not tested):
$ids_to_get(1,3,5,6,8);
$q=mysql_query(
'select * from from_table
where id='.join(' or id=',$ids_to_get).''
);
while($r=mysql_fetch_array($q)){
$fields=array();
foreach($r as $k=$v)$fields[]='`'.$k.'`='.addslashes($v);
echo('insert into to_table set '.join(',',$fields).'br /');
# mysql_query('insert into to_table set '.join(',',$fields));
}
obviously, first try the above to make sure the SQL looks right, before you
uncomment the line that does the damage

Ron Piggott (PHP) wrote:
If $file_name includes the path
/path/to/file/file_name.pdf
is there anyway of searching from the right hand side to the left and
getting the file name out the $file_name variable? The file name starts
the character following the last /
this should do it.
$filename=preg_replace('/.*\//','',$filename);

[PHP-DB] Re: How to calculate size of INT(x) field
Richard Davey wrote: Hi all, Sorry for such a newbie question! But I have been digging through the O'Reilly MySQL book + MySQL Cookbook and cannot find an answer to what I think is a very simple question: When creating an unsigned INT field, how does the value in brackets (if given) limit the size of the field? I.e. what is the difference in possible maximum values held between an INT(10) and an INT(4)? I know MySQL will create an INT(10) as standard but I'm not sure I need it to be able to hold a number that high. IIRC, the highest permitted value of an unsigned int is: 8^(number of bytes)-1 so, INT(4) above is 8^4-1 (approx 65500), and INT(10) is 8^10-1 (quite a bit bigger) Kae -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
