[PHP] Weird Problem
Hey, I've got a script which disables a banner image when it's time is up, the script also sends an e-mail to both me and the banners owner when the time is up I've got a problem which is really weird.. Everything else works, but when the query is sent to the MySQL database, nothing happens... This is the query being sent: UPDATE st_banners SET Disabled='Y' WHERE BannerID='$bannerid' But when the script is run, it reports no errors, yet when i do SELECT Disabled FROM st_banners they are all enabled. I then echoed the query and the result it said it sent the query and it all worked, but the database was never updated.. Any thoughts or suggestions? Or should i be looking for a MySQL list?
Re: [PHP] who is on the page?
What you might want to try is to set a cookie when the user first enters the page, but set it's length to 5 minutes. Then everytime the cookie is resent to the page you count it as a user. But if they leave, then the cookie destroy's itself. You can have the cookie reset it's self, or set to when ever the browser closes.

Re: [PHP] Mailing List Digest
All the digest contains is all the normal e-mails all thrown into 1 huge e-mail. You would recieve about 2 digests per day, instead of 100+ single e-mails. Although i prefer the single e-mail system... - Original Message - From: "Tom Sommer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2003 2:14 AM Subject: [PHP] Mailing List Digest > What does the mailing list digest contain, compared to a normal > subscription?

Re: [PHP] Do query strings get spidered by Google?
Last time i checked, Google does infact query strings. As some of my searches have lead to forums where the url is www.someurl.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=345 ect. I also belive there is a tutorial somewhere on the internet which converts the variables into folders, so it looks like the article is in some sort of directory structure. - Original Message - From: "Mike Hillyer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PHP GENERAL LIST" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, March 16, 2003 4:26 AM Subject: [PHP] Do query strings get spidered by Google? > Hi All; > > I am trying to decide how to lay out a site with a lot of articles, and I am > wondering if query strings get spidered by Google.

Re: [PHP] SMTP Authenticate
If the SMTP server is running on your machine, or you have access to it's configuration. Create an e-mail address specificaly for PHP to mail from, as i had trouble authenticating. But if i created the mailer address as a local user on my SMTP server, it'd be allowed through. I believe it's a method to reduce relayed SPAM... - Original Message - From: "Aitor Cabrera" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, March 16, 2003 3:43 AM Subject: [PHP] SMTP Authenticate Hi, I'm trying to use the mail() funtion but I can only use this funtion the email myself (the same email that I put in the php.ini file).

[PHP] A few questions...
Hello all, I've got several questions and i'm hoping i can find answers or links to places which contain the answers. 1. How can i set a script to run at a certain time? For example, say i want to send a mass e-mail at 5:00pm every night which contains the latest updates to the website. I know how to generate the mail and then send it to everyone's e-mail in a MySQL table. But how do i set it to run automaticaly? Answers for both Linux and Windows systems would be nice... 2. How do i open a HTML file, extract all the text and then break up the text into variables.. For example, i've got a HTML files which all have the same structure Title: Magocracy Author: TheHeadSage E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Category: Comedy, Action Keywords: Ilja, Magic, Ilkeria Rating: PG-13 Spoilers: None, origional story. Summary: [Sumary here] Chapter Body << How would i get all the text and break it up into the variables $title, $author, $email ect. So they can be insterted into the MySQL table under the approprate colums. 3. How do i open a Word Document and extract all the text? As users would like to submit .doc files and i'd like the script to process them.. Thats all the questions so far, any tips, comments, ideas, questions even insults and flames are welcome! Also please reply to the address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] as i dont trust hotmail. Thanks in advance, - Daniel "TheHeadSage" Spain Founder of Voidsoft.

Re: [PHP] Suggestions on FAQ application?
