[PHP] Re: Newbie Question
Ok, I think I have the solution to your problem. Try using nl2br() on the data in that field.. Example: I have a message table that allows one user to send an instant message to another user on my site. There are several fields, one of which being a TEXT column (MySQL db). I use a simple textarea form element to get the data. It inserts into the DB as basically a single line regardless of the ENTER keystrokes in the data. Now, when I pull it back out I use this: $query = "SELECT * FROM message WHERE msg_id = '$msg_id'"; $query_result = mysql_query($query); $query_row = mysql_fetch_array($query_result); $message = $query_row["message"]; echo "Message text:".nl2br($message); And that should do what you need.

You also seem to have an extra equals. Your loop should read:
while (false != ($file=readdir($handle))){
It should come up as an error, but I'm not sure.

Your web server (Apache or IIS) has a log file with every error recorded, or at least, every error that isn't so horrendous that making a record is possible. For Apache with the default installation Windows, it's in: C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/logs/error_log (I think) You may have some useful details in that file that can clue you in to what is happening.

that should be okay - it's to make sure that it is exactly equal to (as
opposed to equates to be equal to)
eg (0 === false) => false

I think you could eliminate the "false !=" in the while condition...
It should be just the same if you write
while (($file = readdir($handle)))
right?

No, that's the 'identical' operator, which returns true when its
operands are both equalivalent and of the same type:

Wrong, actually. If you have any files in that directory which have
names which would evaluate as false in PHP, then your way will fail on
them and you'll get a truncated directory listing. Do 'touch 0' in a
directory and give it a shot; you'll see what I mean.
However, the original example does the same thing, since it only checks
whether the result of the readdir() evaluates to FALSE, not whether it
actually is a boolean FALSE value. The correct way to do this is:
while (FALSE !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
. . .
}
Note the !== instead of !=.
Hope this helps,
Torben

[PHP] Re: Newbie question about PHP and Oracle
Hi,
I think you mean hwo u can get the data into an array
well here is an example :
$query = "select ...";
$stmt = ociparse( $connectionhandle, $query );
if( ociexecute( $stmt, OCI_DEFAULT ) ){
ocifetchinto( $stmt, $row, OCI_ASSOC+OCI_RETURN_NULLS );
}
and now you got 1 resultset in an associative array called $row.
take a look at the oci-functions in the manual for the different flags u can
set.
