Re: [PHP-DB] ODBC
From Windows Help: You can use Data Sources Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) to access data from a variety of database management systems. For example, if you have a program that accesses data in a SQL database, Data Sources (ODBC) will let you use the same program to access data in a Visual FoxPro database. To do this, you must add software components called drivers to your system. Data Sources (ODBC) helps you add and configure these drivers. The only thing you'll really need ODBC for on Windows with PHP is to work with an Access database, but why would you want to when MySQL and SQL Server are faster?

Re: [PHP-DB] cutting off zeros 10.00 to 10

for($i=strlen($n);$i0;$i--){
if(substr($n,$i,1) == 0){
$n = substr($n,0,(strlen($n))-1);

Subject: [PHP-DB] cutting off zeros 10.00 to 10
Hallo,
i was wondering if there is a built-in function in php that just cuts
off not needed zeros from float-numbers (like changing 1.90 to 1.9
or 10.00 to 10).
I get this numbers from a mysql-database, perhaps there even is a
mysql-function for this???
thank you very much,

This will return the number of rows that were affected by the last

[PHP-DB] PHP MySql
I need a good suggestion as I've been a Microsoft ASP developer but now getting more into PHP. It appears there are some issues about session ID's, cookies, and passing data from an NT box to PHP running on a Linux box. Would you folks reccommend I first stuff the data into the Linux box via MySql (I currently have that working) and then when I pass a user from the NT box into the Linux box, call that data from MySql to complete the processing? How well does holding a session ID work between NT and the Linux box? I was hoping to simply cookie the user while on the NT box and then while on the Linux box using PHP call the cookied data. Do whatever processing I need to do, then dump everything into MySql to complete whatever it is that I have running. Currently I found that I can pass smaller amounts of data via a link with string as part of the link. Looking for suggestions.

Thanks, just as I had hit send on that messege, the thought of passing the session ID via a querystring hit me. I'm using linux for MySql and Secure Server processing so as data is being collected from various users while on the NT box, when it comes time for secure server type transactions, I trust using the Linux box. Shrock, Court wrote: You could store session vars that are set on the NT box in mssql and then pass them to the linux box with the session id in the querystring and then have the linux box verify and fetch the session data from the MSSQL server...problem solved. www.freeTDS.org is where you can get the necessary libs to connect to an mssql server from a linux box. TDS stands for Tabular Data Stream, the protocol developed for Sybase and used by mssql. You could also setup an odbc connection to the mysql database on the NT box, thereby bypassing the need for freeTDS.

That is where I am at. Which is better to use. Only need space for 4 drives
with the computers I currently use, but what if I purchase a server that
takes 16, and what other things might the future hold?
I think I will be better off having the drives separate and just match the

Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] Question
Hi
The correct way, IMHO, would be to consider the situation. The hard drives
are a sub component of the computer. In which case the hard drive table
should be a 'child' of the computer table.
However the hard drives could be an item in their own right too.
So if you want to consider the hard drive as an item, but to know which
computer it is in then make HardDriveID the primary key of the hard drive
table, and include ComputerID as a link field.
If it is basically a component of the computer then make
(ComputerID,HardDriveID) the primary key.
In practice either will work as will
Computer table
{
ComputerID(primary)
Hard_drive_1
Hard_drive_2
Hard_drive_3
..
Hard_drive_n
}
which is simpler, not good design, but probably OK if you are sure you will
never have more than 'n' drives
just my 2p worth

[PHP-DB] substituting for $id with globals off (newbie)
Hi, thanks for earlier replies regarding php resources. I am currently
hitting a brick wall on the script below due to my lack of understanding of
php coupled with my lack of knowledge about globals.
I replaced $id with $_GET['id'] in line 5 which now allows the user to reach
the script to evaluate when presented with testpage.php?id=n. It now falls
over when it tries to run the query part :
WHERE id=$id
I tried to submit this instance with $_GET['id'] in the query which also
fails. In the $_GET['id'] where is the value for id now stored?
Can anyone see where i have gone wrong?
thanks

my source:
?PHP
$db = mysql_connect(localhost, root);
mysql_select_db(bsdb1,$db);
// display individual record
if ($_GET['id']) {
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM address WHERE id=$id,$db);
$myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result);
printf(Name: %s\nbr, $myrow[name]);

[PHP-DB] inserting html into mysql tables
hi, is there anything special i need to know in regards to creating a table to hold html data? I am building a CMS for a site using php and mysql. The various tables hold course information that the client wants to edit. I imagine it will be a case of dropping the cleaned html source from dreamweaver into a form box and posting it to the table.

[PHP-DB] option selected
I'm using the contents of a table to print an option list in another form to
allow me to cross reference the tables in my data.

printf(select name=\catcode\\n);
while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
printf(option value=\%s\%s/option\n, $myrow[catcode],
$myrow[title]);

?
Once i have selected from the drop box the variable is submitted back to my
table and saved.
When re-edit the data - the record already has a value for catcode which i
want to reflect within the drop box - in html it would be the addition of
selected=selected within the option.
Are there any recommended methods of doing this?

[PHP-DB] Re: Max execution time
PHP meant Personal Home Page to the guy who originated it. Later people then decided to get cute and have redefined it to mean Php Hypertext Preprocessor. Take your pick. As for the max execution time, you're fine as long as the script completes what it's doing within the allotted time. If your query takes longer, then you're hosed, so the best bet is to set the max execution for long enough that you're in no danger, like 10 minutes.

etc) when I upload it!

);
//
// Retrieve the ID of the photo
//
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM photo
WHERE galleryid = '$galleryid'
AND title = '$title'
AND description = '$description');
$id = mysql_result($result,0,id);
//
// Generate a filename for the file
//
$filename = $id.$format;
//
// Alter the database record to point to the correct

[PHP-DB] preventing page from resubmitting when refreshing page
I have a page that has a form on the first part that posts to itself and
dumps the contents of the form into a database.
All this is well and good - I'm using
if ($_POST['submit']) {
}
to detect the submission and everything is doing as it should.
Thing is if you refresh the page that displays the results it then posts to
the database again. I've tried some error trapping but in the same way the
page hold the post variables it just redoes what it has done rather than re
running the script.
Is there something i can do on browser refresh to prevent this or prevent my
mysql database from duplicating the records?
any help would be appreciated.

// select database

// generate and execute query

Re: [PHP-DB] Remnant data from previous queries when using mysql_fetch_array...
Okay, I figured out that the issue is not due to the PHP code, but by the
query I'm using against the MySQL DB...
What I need to know is how to structure the code where the query is based
off of fields filled in by the user. I would like to structure the query
where if the user provides a value for vendorNumber, and leaves the rest of
the fields blank, the query would be select * from changeLog where
vendorNumber = '$vendorNumber';
The current query, when run in MySQL Control Center, gives the same behavior
as on the website.
Would I have to write this portion of the code in javascript, or some other
client side scripting language to get the dynamic query built?
Thanks,

$row = array();
will initialize the $row variable to an empty array. Or you can use
unset($row) to just get rid of it entirely.
The problem isn't with mysql_query(), it's just that $row is retaining
data from a previous loop in your script.

Hello! My name is Mike and I have no clue what I am doing. I have basic skills in PHP, but for some reson I cant bring them together to make the web program that I need. I would like to make a product site. When a client searches for product 6, the program goes to sites listed in an array, aite a, b, c, d, and e, grabs product 6 and the information needed from that page, then displays a picture, price, link, etc. I need someone who is willing to talk with me outside this mailing list.

Re: [PHP-DB] Resize pictures and store with MySQL
Just to illustrate how you'd go about doing this: - User uploads image description - You resize image with GD functions (look at imagecopyresized()) - Store URL and description to the mySQL table you made It's a very simple thing to do once you organize your file structure where you're going to be storing the images. To retrieve them, you just need to know the image's ID and query based upon that. From there, you can access the image's URL or caption as you need. You can very easily create a script to display the images by querying the DB for X entries and displaying them per page. What you're basically describing is the functionality that MANY blogs have. You can probably find some free scripts online with a minimum amount of searching. -Mike -Original Message- From: Frank McIsaac [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2003 12:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Resize pictures and store with MySQL Hi.

RE: [PHP-DB] Renaming all pages to .php
You can easily add the .php extension to any .htm(l) page that you have with no worries as long as you have PHP installed and configured properly. The only problem is that page load will be SLIGHTLY slower since PHP will search all .php pages for PHP code to evaluate. Upon finding none, it will simply return the HTML to the requester. But note that this is a tiny bit longer than your web server just serving the page without passing it through PHP. Naming all files index.XXX will be a good idea. Though realize that some people might link directly to the file itself (which can sometimes become visible with different browsers and different activities). But none-the-less, it will work for most users if they do decide to bookmark the folder. -M -Original Message- From: David Blomstrom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 19, 2003 10:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Renaming all pages to .php I'd like to get some feedback from this forum.

RE: [PHP-DB] Renaming .htm pages to .php
If you change you Apache configs, it wouldn't create a problem with .htm pages that don't use any PHP, but the pages will still be sent through the PHP parser. If you don't have a very high-traffic site and there's no other sites on the box, then you probably won't see any real performance hit - but understand that if you do start getting a ton of traffic, every .htm page will be parsed for PHP content. Even if none is found, there is some CPU cycles burned in that initial parsing. -Original Message- From: David Blomstrom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 03, 2003 9:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Renaming .htm pages to .php So if I understand you correctly, I can turn a page into a .php page through one of two methods: 1.

[PHP-DB] Help needed with variable scoping? or mysql problem
I've been using JSP for some time now, and thought I'd write a couple of
rdbms explorers (flat tables, simple master/detail paradigm) using other
technologies, like PHP, Cocoon, etc. Well...it's been fun. I have more
working than not. But now I am hung up. I am getting wierd results in a php
script when I simply change the order of some mysql calls.
I'm using php-4.3.2, rh9, and mysql 3.23.
My error is the following (the first line above the Warning below is a dump
of parameters to the showMaster function which is what's bombing):
conn=Resource id #3 databaseName=info tableName=movies fieldName=title
fieldValue=36th Chamber
Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource in /foo/bar/mywebsite/private/database.php on line 107
Line 107 is the first mysql_num_rows call below.
function showMaster($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue)
{
echo conn=$conn\n;
echo databaseName=$databaseName\n;
echo tableName=$tableName\n;
echo fieldName=$fieldName\n;
echo fieldValue=$fieldValue\n;
This code fails when placed here==
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM $tableName where

Any ideas on why this is? When I move the lines above (from

RE: [PHP-DB] Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded
Why is it important that you recycle old PINs? This is most likely eating
up the most time in your script execution.
My suggestion would be to either
A) just keep creating a new one and ignore ones when a child leaves or
B) create a 2nd, much smaller table available_pins and when a child
leaves, insert their former PIN into this table. Then upon executing the new
student script, you check the available_pin table for rows 0. If so, use
the first one. If not, give them a new one.
Good luck.

I do have an auto_increment for the record id. But that is just a way for
me
to uniquely id the record. Student numbers, barcodes, etc can change.
The reason I am using the do/while loop is: Every student is getting a
4digit pin for library, cafeteria and network access. It has to be unique
and we have been assigning a different range of numbers per building/grade.
There are various procedural reasons for this. I have verified that I am
identifying the new student correctly and going into the do/while loop with
a
variable that holds the correct starting number for the appropriate pin
range. It's then just a matter of trying consecutive numbers till I find an
available pin. The pin may be available because a student left the school
or
because it's next available at the end of the line.
Anyway, I was not aware I could pick and choose my ranges in an
AUTO_INCREMENT
field.
I appreciate any thoughts you may have. Thanks.

I had a do while loop such as

$rslterror=mysql_error($link);
$number++
} while ($rslterror!=null);
Anyway, I fixed my dumb mistake. If anyone would like to help me with
a better one, maybe you can tell me if I am doing my do while
correctly. It's only running through once, not getting a succesful
insert and dropping out.

RE: [PHP-DB] Help needed with variable scoping? or mysql problem
Oh yeah that's the ticket!
I'd forgotten that I'd removed the mysql_select_db statement when doing
some earlier 'cleanup'. It just so happens that a few of the mysql metadata
calls (like listing fields/etc.) were inadvertently setting the db...but
only for a brief period of time...wierd.
As I mentioned, I just started using php yesterday, so I'm still learning
some tips/tricks.
But...to php's credit, I gotten a fairly functional rdbms
explorer/browser/editor going in under a day. I had initially planned on
'hardcoding' some rdbms master/detail forms, but after doing just one of
them, and seeing the plethora of mysql calls available, I decided to
genericize the code, and now it's a general explorer/etc. for all of my
databases. Seems pretty speedy too.
Now I just need to add result set 'scrolling'. Returning 2000 records is not
nice...
thanks buddy...

best way to tell is to place .'or die(mysql_error())' after any call to
mysql_query() to see what mysql is complaining about. personally I
sometimes declare the query first so i can echo that as well after the
msyql_error() function, so i can see the query that has just been
excecuted. helpful with dynamic queries.
$qry = SELECT * FROM $tableName where $fieldName='$fieldValue';

[PHP-DB] Populating an array from mysql db
I have a course booking system that allows the client to add courses and then specify how long they run for. The admin system I have built allows the client to add up to 30 dates for each instance of the course and these are adding to a database row in the form date1, date2, date3, daten etc. What I am trying to achieve now is to extract this data into an array so I can count how many dates have been added and to display the dates. If the course runs for eg. 2 days - values of date1 and date2 would be populated as date1=2003-09-01, date2=2003-09-02 - all other dates would be default to -00-00 and I wish to ignore these. I'm trying to work out how to set up a loop to extract positive dates from my db so I end up with $bookdate[0] = '2003-09-01'; $bookdate[1] = '2003-09-02'; etc Can anyone provide me with some help in this extraction?

You're making PHP do some extra work here. You're testing to see if one
string is greater than another... how can strings be greater than or less
than? Why don't you just check for $myrow['date'.$i] != '-00-00' ??

[PHP-DB] md5() and mysql
Hello,
I'm looking at using md5() and mysql for user auth to some of the data
in a table. I found the following on the php md5 manual page,
$query = INSERT INTO user VALUES ('DummyUser',md5('DummyPassword'));
$password = md5($password);
$query = SELECT * FROM user WHERE username='DummyUser' AND
password='DummyPassword';
I see that nobody will be able to view the password once it's in the
database, but I'm thinking that the plain text password is sent to and
from the server and someone might be able to snoop the plain text
password. Is that right?
Thanks for the help,

Re: [PHP-DB] JOIN across db's in MySQL
Thanks, I found the post from John Holmes and was able to reconstruct the query in mysql. But when I transferred that over to php and try to extract an associative array from each record, I found that only one column came out instead of two. By simply changing the query from: $query = select t1.name, t2.name from test1.table1 t1 join test2.table2 t2 on t1.id = t2.id; to: $query = select t1.name as first, t2.name as last from test1.table1 t1 join test2.table2 t2 on t1.id = t2.id; the associative array worked as desired. I suspect what was happening originally was both columns when extracted from the result and placed into the array were both stored under the index name. By changing them to have unique field names as first and as last allowed two different indexes. Perhaps there is a way of extracting data from the query result that will allow redundant names, but I don't know what that is. thanks for the help, Mike Jeffrey N Dyke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] i asked this same question once and somehwere in the archives is a post by John Holmes that shows an example of how mysql allows db joins. its from last month i believe http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-db but in short, mysql does support this using . db.table.field hth Jeff Mike Tallroth [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] exus.comcc: Subject: [PHP-DB] JOIN across db's in MySQL 09/18/2003 10:47 AM In the big scheme of things, I need several functions to be performed by a web interface / database system.

[PHP-DB] select inside a while loop
Hello,
I have two mysql tables songs and artists. They look like this:
CREATE TABLE `artists` (
`artist_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`artist_name` varchar(100) default NULL,
`artist_img` varchar(50) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`artist_id`),
UNIQUE KEY `artist_name` (`artist_name`),
KEY `artist_id` (`artist_id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
CREATE TABLE `songs` (
`song_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`song_title` tinytext,
`artist_id` tinytext,
PRIMARY KEY (`song_id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
Currently I have the artist_id in the songs table setup has a text field
with artist names in them temporarily. First I want to select all the
artist_ids(with the names) and find the artist_id for that name in the
artist table. Then update the artist_id in the song table with the
artist_id in the artist table. Then convert the artist_id in the song
table to int.
So with all that said here is what i have done that doesn't work,
$result = mysql_query(SELECT artist_id FROM songs,$db) or
die(mysql_error());
if ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)){
do {
$artist_name = $row[artist_id];
$result_1 = mysql_query(SELECT artist_id,artist_name FROM
artists WHERE artist_name = '$artist_name',$db);
$row_1 = mysql_fetch_array($result_1);
print $row_1[artist_id]-$row_1[artist_name];
}while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result));
}
I haven't even been able to get to the update part. I'm pretty sure the
above fails because of the var $artist_name after the first run through.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: [PHP-DB] PhpmyAdmin from external computers
I goto http://serverIP/phpmyadmin/index.php - and it logs me inautomatically as localhost, i can see the database lists on the side panel etc. I click on a database or create a new database and the login screen comes up. I try entering the root password and username, but it just comes up with : #1045 - Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO) and ive tried with a blank password as well. I have the auth_type in config.inc.php (PhpMyAdmin) set to 'config' and the username and password for mysql is in their respective places. Logging in as root with no password remotely is not good. Try making another user logged in locally with user and password, then try that from remote. -- Mike Karthauser Managing Director - Brightstorm Ltd Email[EMAIL PROTECTED] Web http://www.brightstorm.co.uk Tel 0117 9426653 (office) 07939 252144 (mobile) SnailmailUnit 8, 14 King Square, Bristol BS2 8JJ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] PHP/DB speed
On 56K the page would probably either 1) timeout on the way you have it currently or 2) only display part of the page/form and not read the whole page correctly. I dunno give us the URL, I am sure someone is on dialup to give it a wurl. Try the url with web analyzer http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/ This is by far the most useful dev tool I have found recently. Saves touching dial ups for testing.. -- Mike Karthauser Managing Director - Brightstorm Ltd Email[EMAIL PROTECTED] Web http://www.brightstorm.co.uk Tel 0117 9426653 (office) 07939 252144 (mobile) SnailmailUnit 8, 14 King Square, Bristol BS2 8JJ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] INSERT into 2 different tables??
Just wana ask is it possible to have only one form and when i submit, it should INSERT data into 2 diff tables?? Hope u get my idea... It is possible. You just need to do 2 single inserts to one to each table. -- Mike Karthauser Managing Director - Brightstorm Ltd Email[EMAIL PROTECTED] Web http://www.brightstorm.co.uk Tel 0117 9426653 (office) 07939 252144 (mobile) SnailmailUnit 8, 14 King Square, Bristol BS2 8JJ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] Re: php mail() question
What does this do? Well I added PRE and /PRE for a testing purpose. It returns in the textarea PRE/PRE ... So it's skipping the HtmlSpecialChars code. Why? Change this: echo textarea name='headers' cols='250' rows='5'PRE,HtmlSpecialChars($headers[$line]),/PRE/textarea'; For echo textarea name='headers' cols='250' rows='5'PRE.HtmlSpecialChars($headers[$line])./PRE/textarea'; Which should display. -- Mike Karthauser Managing Director - Brightstorm Ltd Email[EMAIL PROTECTED] Web http://www.brightstorm.co.uk Tel 0117 9426653 (office) 07939 252144 (mobile) SnailmailUnit 8, 14 King Square, Bristol BS2 8JJ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] Re: Associated popup menu (php/mysql)
Actually, there is a way to do this with PHP. It may not be the best method, but it is possible. You could do it with one single source file, or multiple. With a single source file you could do something like this: The first time through would display the first popup with valid choices. Form action would post the results of the popup to the same page. Now you have a variable with a value from the first popup. You can then display your second popup choices based on the first. And so on for any remaining popups. With multiple source files: The first page displays the first popup. Form action would post the results to the next page. As with the first method, you now have a variable with a value from the first popup. Display your second popup choices based on the first. And so on... Pro: You don't need to learn Javascript. Con: The web page is redrawn for each new popup selection - not seamless like a pure Javascript solution may be. Using multiple source files may help you keep load time down as well as make it easier to maintain. It's a matter of personal choice, I think. If you don't program Javascript, this is one method you may consider - though I would encourage anyone writing web pages to learn Javascript. It can be a real lifesaver! :-) With either method (PHP or Javascript), you'll probably want to code in some way for the user to go back and re-select the first popup, i.e. start over. Sorry, I don't have sample code. I haven't had a need for this type of popups yet, but I have a project coming up soon that probably will. If I get a chance to code up a sample, I'll make it available. Good luck. :Mike S. :Austin TX On Thu February 5 2004 7:33pm, Micah Stevens wrote: Javascript is client side programming, PHP is server side and unable to control actions and make decisions on what's happening in the browser except in a 'third person' manner.

[PHP-DB] Re: Form doesnt write to database
Dear friends,
Form doesn't write to mysql database. I have pasted code of mysal
table structure,html form and php script. Any comments, please.
// create the SQL statement
$sql = INSERT INTO testtable values ('{'', $_POST['testField']}','
{'', $_POST['testFielda']}','{'', $_POST['testFieldb']}','{'',
$_POST['testFieldd']}','
{'', $_POST['testFieldc']}','{'', $_POST['testFielde']}');
I tried your code on my system and got an error of 'incorrect number of
parameters'. That's when I realized you need NULL as the first
parameter in your values. I didn't see in the MySQL docs where it
requires the NULL, but in one of the examples, it was there.
Insert NULL as the first parameter and it should work.
I also got a parse error because of the '{' and '}' symbols around your
$_POST variables. I changed it to:
$sql = INSERT INTO testtable values ( NULL, '.$_POST['testField'].',
'.$_POST['testFielda'].', '.$_POST['testFieldb'].',
'.$_POST['testFieldd'].', '.$_POST['testFieldc'].',
'.$_POST['testFielde'].' );
and got a working solution.
Suggestion: You could try using the mysql_errno() and mysql_error()
functions. Print them out after your failed statement and you'll see
why the mysql call failed.
Example:
print Error # .mysql_errno(). - .mysql_error().BR\n;
will print the error number and message. This will give you some idea
of what went wrong.
Good coding practice dictates that you check for an error condition
after mysql calls [using mysql_errno()] and handle any errors
appropriately.
If you don't already have it, you'll want a list of the error codes and
their meanings. You can find it in the mysql source code
Docs/mysqld_error.txt file. If you can't find that right now, copy this
web page I whipped up right now:
http://web.netmask.com/2004/02/mysql-error-codes.html
or, if you prefer a flat, text file:
http://web.netmask.com/2004/02/mysql-error-codes.txt
Good luck!
