http://www.site.com/MovieResponder.php?star="; .
urlencode($star) . "&year=" . urlencode($year), "r");
$movie_info = fread($movie_site, 10240);
fclose($movie_site);

echo"your movie info is: ";
echo ($movie_info);
}
else{

You could use file functions with a URL:

$movie_site = fopen("http://www.site.com/MovieResponder.php?star="; .
urlencode($star) . "&year=" . urlencode($year), "r");
$movie_info = fread($movie_site, 10240);
fclose($movie_site);

RE: [PHP-DB] relay response transactions between PHP scripts on different servers

2001-07-15 Thread Matthew Loff


Ken--

If you have access to that server with the SQL database... Then instead
of creating an additional PHP script on the SQL server... Could you
simply add a username/password that was allowed to access that
particular database (read-only, of course) remotely?  

If that isn't an option, here's an idea:

Transmit the $star and $decade variables to the MovieResponder.php
(don't pass the SQL query directly-- that's a bad idea!)... Have the
MovieResponder.php execute the SQL query, retrieve all results into an
array, and serialize() the array, then pass the serialized data back to
MovieInfo.php.

I'm sure others will have other suggestions, and there are probably
better ways to do it than this.

Good luck!

Hello,
suppose you have a MOVIES table in your database on your server at your
hosting company. Suppose I want some MOVIE info from your database..the
titles of all the Robert Deniro movies released in the 1980's. Can I get
the info and relay it back to the user on MY site?

Would it be something like this?:

Suppose I have a php page on MY web site called MovieInfo.php

MovieInfo.php creates a sql command string from info provided by the
user at MY site.

something like $sql=" select titles,dates from movies where star =
'Robert Deniro' and decade = '1980'"

assume correct syntax.

Suppose you have a PHp script on your site called MovieResponder.php
that is designed to run the query and send the result back to MY script.

The php page on MY web site called MovieInfo.php has something like this
form:

FORM method="post"
action="https://www.yourserver.com/gateway/MovieResponder.php";>
https://www.myserver.com/MovieInfo.php";>




etc? etc?

how could it work?

Hello,

Suppose I want some MOVIE info from your database..the titles of all the

Can I get the info and relay it back to the user on MY site?

Suppose you have a PHp script on your site called MovieResponder.php

The php page on MY web site called MovieInfo.php has something like this
