Maybe easy, maybe hard SELECT puzzle :)

I can't figure out if this is actually challenging or if it's a stupid question. Table1 is a normal old relation that describes a bunch of objects: Table1 (id INT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, Name varchar(255), Size int) etc. Associated with each Table1 record is a variable-length of 3-byte alphanumeric

Strategies for optimizing a read-only table

2003-11-07 Thread Jonathan Terhorst
I could have sworn I posted this once before, but apparently it got lost somewhere. Apologies if you're seeing this twice: I'm wondering what I can do with MySQL to optimize reads (SELECTs) on a read-only table where data will never be INSERTed or UPDATEd. Okay, that's not entirely

i think you should have a sales person table that hold unique id for each sales force such as salesrep (id,etc..) | 101 | ... | | 102 | ... | so you can alter the query into select salesrep.id, sum(ifnull(salesinvoices.invamt,0)) as curramt, sum(ifnull(lysalesinvoices.lyinvamt,0)) as lyamt

RE: Secure way of storing passwords in the database

2003-11-07 Thread Erik Osterman
Right, you should really use a 1-way hashing algorithm like SHA1. If the user forget's their password, require them to change it.. which is good practice anyways, since someone else might have found it for them! The general idea with 1-way hashing algorithms is that you compare the result of

single quotes in database

I am using PHP/MySQL and am having a problem. We have some names and addresses in the database that have single quotes in them. For instance. There is a town around here called Lee's Summit. Also names like O'connel. When I pull from the database it skips these because of the quotes. I
