2 things:
1. when you have no hair left whatsoever:
var_dump($foo); exit;
2. error_log() is your friend .... tail the log and run the code.
just a thought.
Hey Jochem,
It's been a long slog, and I'm still playing with "test" programs to
figure out how things work. It sure isn't like using a desktop
debugger, especially as we are doing it all remotely.
Thanks for your comments - Miles

You could also try programs like "EasyPHP", it contains
Apache/PHP/MySQL/PHPMyAdmin in one installer package.

I am trying to download a file from MySQL and display it using the
following PHP script,
but it isn't displaying the file just a list of files in the database.
Please help.
---- Code Begin ----
<?
if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
include 'library/config.php';
include 'library/opendb.php';
$id = $_GET['id'];
$query = "SELECT name, type, size, content FROM upload WHERE id =
'$id'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
list($name, $type, $size, $content) = mysql_fetch_array($result);
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$name");
header("Content-length: $size");
header("Content-type: $type");
echo $content;
include 'library/closedb.php';
exit;
}
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Download File From MySQL</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<?
include 'library/config.php';
include 'library/opendb.php';
$query = "SELECT id, name FROM upload";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 0)
{
echo "Database is empty <br>";
}
else
{
while(list($id, $name) = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
?>
<a href="download.php?id=<?=$id;?>"><?=$name;?></a> <br>
<?
}
}
include 'library/closedb.php';
?>
</body>
</html>
---- Code End ----
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
<a href="download.php?id=<?=$id;?>"><?=$name;?></a> <br>
Is there a valid $id being passed through a query ($_GET) variable, like
so?:

What happens when you click on that?

Shakespeare :-) IIRC that is from Twelfth Night.
