Re: [PHP-DB] Bit(1) datatype from mySQL

2006-01-07 Thread Micah Stevens
Use a tinyint field in mysql, (which is what bool gets translated to I think) and you'll get a number back, 0 = false, 1 = true, and you can: if ($fieldname) { do true item; } if (!$fieldname) { do false item; } This works for me, I've done before quite a bit in the past. -Mic

Re: [PHP-DB] isset or ! isset what is my problem?

2006-01-02 Thread Micah Stevens
NULL != Not set. isset() tests to see if the variable exists. If your variable has a null value it is set, it DOES exist, it just has NULL for a value. You should test for a null value if that's what you want: if ($picture == null) Or perhaps the empty() function might be what you're looking

You can store an MD5, or SHA hash of the password, and then compare.. This is not an encrypted version of the password, rather a calculated hash of it. You can't (well, not without a bit of effort) decrypt this back into the password. The idea is when you store the password, you create the has

Use the database for what it was designed for, storing data that needs to be parsed, and use the filesystem for what it was designed for, storing files. Just my opinion, but I think it's a good one. :) -Micah On Thursday 17 November 2005 1:19 am, Marco Schierhorn wrote: > Hey, > > we´ve lar

Keep in mind you're referring to a filesystem path, and a relative one to boot, so what you're telling php is, that your upload directory is: /home/somally/public_html/music/music/media/ Which doesn't sound like what you intend. Also don't trust the php line numbers if you have significant wh
