What's the end results your looking for?
If you are trying to pass that data straight through the parser try
wrapping it in CDATA.

The information is used to keep a database up to date for a service that
was created in order to provide more advanced functionality for the
service that made it.
The XML file is not -mine-, and to search for all the html entities and
wrap them in cdata before parsing would be kinda silly I think :O
So yea, thats what I was trying to avoid having to do :O

Hi to all,
I need to collect info about columns from a selected table.
I use this:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ". $TableName);
$fields = mysql_num_fields($result);
for ($i=0; $i < $fields; $i++)
{
$type = mysql_field_type($result, $i);
$name = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
$len = mysql_field_len($result, $i);
$flags = mysql_field_flags($result, $i);
echo $type . " | " . $name . " | " . $len . " | " . $flags ."\n";
}
If I have columns type ENUM('live', 'hidden', 'pending'), $flags will show
ONLY 'enum'.
How can I get all ENUM values?
Thanks for any help or direction.

This doesn't really seem a PHP question... BUT... give a look here:

There is one user comment ('Posted by J. Santiago Scarfo on March 31

I saw that one. Actually, I'm using right now the code below the one you
mentiones (from Peter Rekdal). but was thinking that there is kind of
pre-defines php function, smething like mysql_field_name(), or
mysql_field_len(), or mysql_field_flags(). That's why I posted my question
on this group. :)
Thanks Silvio.

I think Afan means they are values in an enum field. But I may be mistaken... :)

Afan,
Here's some code that will show enum values:
$q2 = "describe ". $tname . " ;";
$r2 = mysql_query($q2) or die(mysql_error());
while ( $a2 = mysql_fetch_array($r2) )
{
$els = count($a2);
echo "<br>";
for ($i2 = 0; $i2 < $els; $i2++)
{
$f = $a2[$i2] ;
if ($f == "") $f = " ";
echo $f . " | ";
}
echo "\n";
}
Perhaps combining it with your code will give you what you need.

look Suresh Kumar,
you came to this list about 2 weeks ago stating "i am working as a web
designer in PHP & Mysql.i know the basics of PHP & Mysql". Since that
post, you've posted the following questions:
1. i dont know how 2 store images in gif/jpeg format in Mysql Database.i
also want 2 know PHP Code 2 store images in Mysql Database. reply me
soon its very urgent .
2. i dont know exact PHP code for how 2 open file browser window to
uplad file or an image plz help me.its very urgent.
3. a JS question ending in "plz help me itz very urgent."
4. for eg while(list(t1,t2,...)=mysql_fetch_row($result)): endwhile;
while i use $t1 ouside while loop ,its corresponding value is not
displaying,how can i display the value of $t1.
5. am having 3 files Login.php,home.php and home1.php when i entered
username and passwd in my first login page i want want i entered as
username and passwd in my third page ie home1.php.
Now, from these 5 posts you've made, I would like to advise you this:
you do NOT know the basics of PHP/MySQL. PLEASE, learn at LEAST the
basics of PHP and MySQL, get a book, attend a class, read a couple of
tutorials, etc. But most of all, please, get a basic understanding of
how PHP works (serverside vs. clientside, sessions/posting/getting data,
etc).
By posting all these questions, you're getting either annoyed responses,
or just 1 word (or URL) ones. Why? Because it's clear that giving you
responses which explain everything simply won't work for you, because
you don't have the basis to understand (and repeat) them.
hope you'll continue using PHP and actually delve a bit into it before
continuing along the path as you're doing now,
- tul
P.S. this was not meant as a (personal) rant. If it appeares as such,
then sorry, it is not meant to be.

I have a couple extensions that maybe useful for PHP users who use
PostgreSQL.
I have a serializer for PHP that serializes session data to a documented XML
format. That extension is called XMLDBX. I also have a PostgreSQL extension
that will read this XML data and allow you to query it.
select xmldbx('data.myclass.userid', mytable.session)
$myclass['userid'] or $myclass->userid will be returned if it was
serialized.

Hi all
I'm using PHP 4.x and MySQL 3.x. I'm saving in my DB various fields with
greek text.
What I need to do is pass that data to flash in UTF format, but the MySQL
doesn't support UTF.
Is there a way to take the greek text and convert it to UTFchars so Flash
can read it?
Many Thanks

Hi all.
I figured this question was suitable for both the MySQL list and the
PHP-General list. Here's what I'm running into.
I just installed MySQL5 and currently have PHP 4.3.11 installed. I
am wanting to connect to the mysql database on localhost, but I
get the following results:
----------
<? $link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'user', 'password'); ?>
"Client does not support authentication protocol requested by
server; consider upgrading MySQL client"
----------
Well, I have the lastest stable version of MySQL, so I did some more
research on what the problem might be. When I checked my
information for PHP using phpinfo(), it gave me the "Client API
version" for MySQL was 3.23.49. So, I'm thinking my version of PHP
cannot connect to my version of MySQL. I then considered if I
installed the MySQLi extension for PHP (supports versions of MySQL
> 4.1), would that help me? Or, if I just upgraded PHP to version 5,
would that help me?
Does anyone have any suggestions on the direction I should go?
Thanks in advance,
~Philip

Downgrading to MySQL 4.1 should fix the problem.

Yes, the authentication protocol for MySQL changed at (I think)
version 4.1. While you *could* downgrade MySQL, you could also
upgrade your MySQL client libraries, which is what I would recommend.
If PHP was compiled statically, you'll have to recompile it;
otherwise you can just upgrade MySQL client libraries.
One other question: have you restarted your webserver since the MySQL
upgrade? If not, it's possible the libraries were upgraded when MySQL
was but your web server isn't using them. You could check by running
php -i | grep -i mysql on the commandline, or just restart the
webserver and recheck phpinfo().
The MySQLi is officially supported by PHP5 only, although apparently
a number of people are using it with PHP4.

Answer 1:
Call them, fax them, email them, IM them, or check their website.
This is the only way to know for sure.
Answer 2:
Check http://netcraft.com/
I don't know all the tools they use to record server information, but
I presume that it includes methods like Answer 3 below.
Answer 3:
If you want to do this via a program, the answer is - in general, no.
However, many servers will return an HTTP header containing this
info. Also, (at least on Apache) server signatures may be set to
reveal this info on error displays. You could open a socket
connection to port 80 of the desired domain, and issue a HEAD
request. You'll have to parse the results for Server and/or
X-Powered-By and possibly other headers. Here's some examples via
telnet:
telnet <domain deleted> 80
Trying <ip address deleted>...
Connected to <domain deleted>.
Escape character is '^]'.
HEAD / HTTP/1.0
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2006 21:23:03 GMT
Server: Apache
Content-Type: text/html
Connection: close
telnet <domain deleted> 80

Escape character is '^]'.

Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2006 21:32:26 GMT
Content-Length: 4126

Connected to <domain deleted>.
Escape character is '^]'.
HEAD / HTTP/1.0
HTTP/1.0 302 Moved Temporarily
Date: Sun, 29 Jan 2006 21:36:52 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) PHP/4.3.10 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7e
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.10
Location: index_html.html
Content-Type: text/html
Connection: close
However, many servers are set to not reveal this info for security
purposes; it could also be spoofed for the same reason. For example,
the second site above (the IIS one) actually *does* support PHP
according to their website. See
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.sockets.php
for info on opening & reading from sockets; there is an example on
this page in the user comments about sending HTTP HEAD requests.
