RE: SV: [PHP] Booking by Date/Time in mySQL
Jon, not sure if I agree with you: locking - almost always a bad idea, atomicity is much faster and safer and usually indicates a better relational design. SQL is fundamentally set oriented, but newbies are almost always row oriented. mySQL locks table automagically, but it doesn't do row level locking, and transactions are only recently added. generate ids - let the db do this with ids. Almost all the number fountains I have seen are because of the inability of a 3GL to recieve the generated id efficiently, this is not a problem in mySQL. I do agree with you though if you are refering to having a decent relational data model Jeffs DB Maxims: In my db experience OS [DOS/WIN32/Unix/Mini/Mainframe] Type [relational/post-relational/object/network/hierarchical] * NEVER write SQL that requires programatic locking * minimise use of transactions [redesign! think lateral] * use sql atomicity whenever possible * don't be a pessimistic locker - optimism is so much more user friendly. * apply the twelve of codd with intelligence rather than obsession * all updates should be safely repeatable * 3NF is generally cool, but 14NF is overboard.

RE: SV: [PHP] Booking by Date/Time in mySQL
One problem is that you are only checking the first booking. select * from booking where room='room' gives ALL bookings, and you look like you are just testing the FIRST one. why not turn it round and do: select * from booking where ('$start'>=startdate and '$start'<=enddate) or ('$end'>=startdate and '$end'<=enddate) This lets mySQL do the test for you.

Peter, what do you mean by Newdate between date1 & date2?? the logic i'm using is that i'm checkin if the new Start Date & End date lies between the old Start Date & End Date or not. If it does, than entry is denied, else booking is succesfull. But things are not running, following is the code i'm using ... -- =$myrow[sdate]) && ($realsdate<=$myrow[edate]) && ($realedate>=$myrow[sdate]) && ($realedate<=$myrow[edate]) { echo "Sorry"; } else { $sql = "INSERT INTO booking (room,sdate,edate,stime,etime,purpose,reserved) VALUES ('$rooms','$realsdate','$realedate','$realstime','$realetime','$purpose','$res')"; $result = mysql_query($sql) or Die ("An unexpected error occured.
