[PHP-DB] PHP - FreeTDS - UnixODBC - MS-SQL Am I missing something....
Hey there folks... OK, so I am getting to the point where I am not sure where to look... It would seem that the combination of PHP & ODBC are just not happy. This is running on SLES 10 SP1, php 5.1.2 Zend Eng 2.1.0 FreeTDS is latest stable, UNIXOdbc Latest Stable I can connect just fine ie: $conn = odbc_connect(SrvIP,'sa','saPWD'); Changing databases is not problem ie: odbc_exec($conn,'use different_DB'); I can make calls to things like odbc_tables() and iterate through the table names. and I can do this from either the server command line or via a web page, all of this is fine. I can connect to the remove database server with both: tsql [serverip], [username],[password] isql [DSN], [username],[password] I can execute queries, I can create tables, drop tables, insert rows, all works just fine. The problem hits when I do something as simple as: $conn = odbc_connect(SrvIP,'sa','saPWD'); $query = 'select count(*) from sysobjects' ; $result = odbc_exec($conn,$query); I try this and it is game over. Nothing it all just hangs. I have tried reviewing the sql.log file and it just simply stops logging after the connect statement. This is the result, from either the command line ie:php5 sqltest.php or pulling it from a web page ie: http://server/sqltest.php I would be very appreciative if someone could provide me with a clue as to where to start looking. I have reviewed all the setting for PHP, Apache, ODBC, FreeTDS and I cannot find something wrong, but obviously, I am missing something here.

Re: [PHP-DB] running program after insert w/MySQL 4.1
Access is the backend for a proprietary front end. I just checked with the company and they can't understand why anybody would want to change the program(!). In any case, they won't allow it. So, I'm stuck with the ODBC call from the Win computer sending data to the mysql db on the linux computer. How can I get a web page called after the ODBC call?

[PHP-DB] mysql went away
HI. I've been using mySQL 4.0.13, php4.3.4, and phpMyAdmin2.5.5 on Mac OS 10.3.3 as a learning/testing/development environment for a couple of months now - no problems, works great. I've created more than a few mySQL databases and tables, but yesterday I created a database, a table, and LOAD DATA from within phpMyAdmin. Successfully. I looked at the data and all was fine. Logged out and went away for a while. Came back and phpMyAdmin would not show me my databases in the left frame, and I could not launch a query window. I could see runtime information, system vars, processes, and even privileges. I tried logging in to mySQL through the terminal, and I can run simple commands and connect OK, but any commands to show databases or tables will hang the terminal. Through the command line client I can run simple commands, but no commands to view or affect databases or tables. I can run php scripts - connect to databases, retrieve and even insert/update data, but I cannot view databases or tables. Does anyone have a clue about what the problems may be or where I should start? --- Bill Green 20 Meadowview Drive Asheville, NC 28804 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billgreen.org 828.252.1492 -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DB] PHP help
My System: Windows 98 Apache 1.3.27 PHP 4 mysql Hello all, I am a PHP beginner and was wondering if I could get some help from some of the more experienced on this list. I have been trying to use an html form (with textboxes, radio buttons, and textareas) to input data into a mysql database. I am able to connect fully with the database and am able to create tables in it, but when I try to input information into the tables nothing happens. ever... I don't really know what to do from here, but I assume that a configuration is not set properly between mysql, apache, windows, or php. I really don't know what it could be. My code is here and I have tried to simplify the form in order to get it working, so here is my barebones code that hopefully has some errors: HTML: Simplify Login: PHP file called "addform.php": Login is the name of the table on the database named test. I stopped using a password because it wouldn't let anything work even table creation when I tried to use a password. Any help that anyone could give would be greatly appreciated; there is probably some grievious error in this script. Thanks, Chris - Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month!

[PHP-DB] Database Connections
I have a general question concerning databases in php. More specifically,
what is the general consensus on maintaining a connection. Some of this is
more than likely my ignorance.
My connection stuff goes something like this ...
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "stuff", "pw") or die("Could Not Connect");
mysql_select_db("stuff",$db) or die("Could Not Select Database");
<<< Other Code Here >>>
mysql_free_result($result);
mysql_close($db);
It seems very inefficient to open and close a database with each different
page or call to that database. My question is ... Is there a better way
and, if so, what is it? I guess I do not quite understand just how long a
connection is maintained. I hate to write code that doesn't clean up after
itself. Any suggestions are appreciate. TIA

[PHP-DB] mysql problem
Hello all! I am new to php and I am trying to update a mySQL table using
php v4.2.3 for Windows. I am using the command:
mysql_query("insert into tblquotehits
(qoption,referer,browser,remoteaddr,dt) values
($quotetype,$referer,$browser,$remoteaddress,$currentdtstring)",$db);
I have read the documentation and found some notes on the topic but none
seemed to solve my problem. I have tried other variations of the command
such as inserting a semicolon at the end of the insert statement before the
closing double quotes. All variables are defined and all columns are
actually columns in the table ... I have checked all of this. I have also
returned the result to a variable and echoed it to the screen ... the result
printed is "Resource id #2".
This is driving me crazy as I know it must be something quite simple that I
am overlooking. Any help is greatly appreciated! TIA

[PHP-DB] Problems with ODBC connectivity
I have developed a PHP application that accesses a Microsoft Access database through ODBC. The application works well using PHP version 4.1. I have recently installed the newest version of PHP (4.2.3) on another machine running NT4, and IIS 4. Again, I am using an ODBC connection, and have given this connection the same name, login, and password as is present in my PHP files. While the PHP module is running fine, I cannot retrieve records from the database, probably indicating a problem with my connectivity to the ODBC. Again, I have made the same settings in the new ODBC entry as is present on the development machine. Could there be a version problem with the PHP module?

for the first record. Could anyone point out why it won't go on to any other records?

Drop the "$result" from the mysql_num_rows() so it reads: $num_results=mysql_num_rows(); Depending upon the PHP version, that might do the trick for you. kind regards, bill Mike Ford wrote: > > -Original Message- > > From: Gurhan Ozen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: 06 January 2002 20:10 > > > > I am pretty sure that the query is correct. here is the actual query: > > $query="select distinct(nodeid), nodename > > from books where > > bookid=$bookid"; > > $result=mysql_query($query); > > $num_results=mysql_num_rows($result); > > > > > The funny thing is that if i write the same query without "where > > bookid=$bookid" then the mysql_num_rows works but with where > > statement it > > doesn't. > > Have you echoed $result to see what it contains?

[PHP-DB] Re: database/form help needed
Turn your checkboxes into an array
And then parse the array when you POST the form
while (list($key,$val)=each($id)) {
echo "$val"; // this is an id that was checked
} // end while
The virtue of this is you don't have to check for all possible values (id1, id2, id3,
etc), you'll only end up working with checkboxes that have been checked.
kind regards,
bill

[PHP-DB] Re: looped insert
Hi Russ,
It's not clear that you're keeping track of which categories are being checked.
You name them category[$names] but you refer to them as $category[$i] where $i is a
number. How will you know what $category[1] refers to?
Other issues: It's also not clear where the value of $email comes from. Nor is it
clear if you're trying to obtain one row in the database with all subscriptions or
whether
you could have multiple lines for multiple subscriptions.
Try this
while (list($key,$val)= each ($HTTP_POST_VARS[category]) ) {
$thisname=$key; // this is the "name" of the checkbox, as in $category[$name]
$thisval=$val; // this is the value, which in every case is "yes"
$sql="INSERT INTO $myanet02($thisname) values ($email)";
// this will produce a line in the db for each subscription
// if you want one line for all subscriptions, remvoe the $sql line above and
// uncomment these lines below
// to compound the sql and run the query after the while
// if ($thefields) $thefields .= ", $thisname"; } else { $thefields = "$thisname";
}
// if($thevalues) $thevalues .= ",'$email' " } else { $thevalues = "'$email'"; }
$query = mysql_query($sql,$connect) or die(mysql_error());
} // end while
// uncomment following lines for single row entry
// $sql= INSERT INTO $myanet02($thefields) values ($thevalues)";
// echo $sql;
// $query = mysql_query($sql,$connect) or die(mysql_error());

I am new to PHP so I am need someone to explain this problem to me. I am
trying to read items from a table and store them into an array. My current
function of choice to use is "mysql_fetch_array". The documentation says
that it returns FALSE if there are no more rows returned, but yet when the
query does not return a result set, It does not return anything. So the
basic question is how do I test for a query that does not return for any
results ? Here is some of my code below:
$result = mysql_db_query ("GradAdmissions","select * from applicant where
applicant_id = 17");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result))
{
echo "applicant_id: ".$row["applicant_id"]."\n";
echo "member_id: ".$row["member_id"]."\n";
}
mysql_free_result ($result);

You need to split the value into an array using php, then list it out.
Lots of ways to do that, here's one.
$result4 = mysql_query( "SELECT DCD_Access FROM userdb WHERE ID =
'$user_ID'");
$DCD = mysql_fetch_array ( $result4 );
print " \n
\n
\n
None\n
Within Gel\n";
// new stuff
$vals= explode(", ", $DCD["DCD_Access"]);
for ($i=0;$i$vals[$i]\n";
}
// end new stuff
print " \n

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: Photo Album Schema
Hi, By saying id.gif, I obviously didn't mean the id of the user, I meant the unique id of the image. I assumed the person making this was going to have one table setup like so: id (unique id) owner name description jpg_or_gif, etc Then a table with authors.. id name pass email etc with author.id = picture.owner I see no downside to doing that and it seems to be a relatively effecient way to ensure the uniqueness of all image names.

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: Photo Album Schema
Hi, I can see absolutely no reason to store the name of the image with the picture? Why not, whether using one directory or one for each user, just do id.gif?

[PHP-DB] Re: MySQL/PHP Troubles :( anyone have a solution?
You're not echoing anything back to the browser.
For example change this:
if ($action == "logout")
{
unset ($login_user);
unset ($login_password);
unset ($action);
}
to this:
if ($action == "logout")
{
echo "You chose to log out";
unset ($login_user);
unset ($login_password);
unset ($action);
echo "Thanks, you are now logged out.";
}
It might also help prevent confusion if you indented your code for each level of
curly brackets "{ }" you use. Having all your brackets flush left is tough to
read.
kind regards,
bill hollett

Re: [PHP-DB] managing variant data
I would create another table called "extras" that include all possible extra choices. This table has a SpeciesID field to assign it to a species. A third table called "details" could have OfficerID and ExtrasID and ExtrasValue fields. That way you could have as many or as few extras as you want. Filling out the data requires two forms. The first just gets the basic officer info. The second grabs the officerID and Species and displays only those "Extras" that pertain to that species. Submitting the info populates the "details" table. Queries link the officer & details tables on OfficerID. You can link the extras & details tables on the ExtrasID when you need. kind regards, bill hollett Jesse Scott wrote: > Hi again, another conundrum. > > What is the best way to deal with the following situation? > > You have a group of common properties including a property that indicates a > second group of common properties.

Re: [PHP-DB] image upload -> mime types??
Hi Matthew, I ignore both the mime-type and the extension, and assume mistakes (sooner or later) by the user. Running getimagesize() on the file will show what image type it is by actually looking at the file. If it isn't one of those types, I delete it. If it is a correct type, I force the correct extension on it to prevent errors. kind regards, bill matthew knight wrote: > i've created an application where users can upload images through the form > upload, and to ensure that they are sending me an image, i take a look at > the type of the file (ie. $uploadedfile_type), which usually returns > something like > > image/x-png > > however.. not always.. so secondly, i check for a file extension using > $uploadedfile_name, but if they've loaded it from a mac.. i can't be sure > there will be a filename.. so, those things both failing in some cases.. is > there any other way of checking the filetype of a file? > > i'm concerned that some could upload malicious content and run it (although > the execute flag is turned off, AND the filename is difficult to get.. ) and > would like to reduce the possiblity.. > > any suggestions? > > -- > matthew knight - online developer > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -- > PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP-DB] Selecting number of news items on frontpage
Hey, If you're using Mysql to store the items, you could use the Limit statement to limit the number of items displayed. If you're using the file system it'd probably be a little more difficult, but not impossible. For example, if the news items were stored in a text file with one entry per line, you could just use file() to convert the file to an array and then loop 7 times--grabbing the first 7 elements (or news items) of the array.

I have a table with three simple columns: id(unique), memberID, and choice I want to find out which memberIDs have BOTH choice 2 AND choice 3. --> SELECT memberID from table where choice=2 AND choice = 3 That won't work (0 results, of course, because no row has two choices, they're mutually exclusive) ---> SELECT memberID from table where choice=2 OR choice = 3 That doesn't work (shows all memberIDs that chose either 2 or 3). Can I maybe join the table upon itself on the memberID?
