[PHP-DB] Creating Directory Search Engine
Hi All, I am trying to build a search engine for a directory. So far I have setup a table of keywords [ id | category_id | keyword ] with a single keyword and the category that it refers to. Then I have a table of categories [ cat_id | parent_id | cat_name ] and a table of vendors linked to the corresponding category_id. Basically the trouble arises when searching for multiple keywords because there is only one word in each record. I am trying to do this in a single query, but it seems that there must be a better way. For example TABLE keywords [ id | category_id | keyword ] ex. records 1 | 10 | auto 2 | 10 | car 3 | 10 | repair 4 | 20 | auto 5 | 20 | car 6 | 20 | new 7 | 20 | sales These keywords refer to the categories 'auto repair' (cat_id = 10) and 'new auto sales' (cat_id = 20) So a search for 'auto' should return vendors in both categories while a search for 'auto repair' should return just category 10 Make sense? Please let me know of a good strategy for this - I imagine that it is quite common. Thanks much, olinux __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo!

[PHP-DB] multiple entries in database
I have worked my problem down to the mysql database. I have a table like so: Field Type Attributes Null Default Extra username varchar(16) No commID int(9) No auto_increment commState char(2) No commCity varchar(25) No commZip int(5) No 0 commName varchar(255) No commID is primaryKey. when I do an insert to this table without giving the ID a value inside the insert statement it duplicates the entry or increments another blank entry. the insert statement is not in a loop or recursive function. I have found out that if I take out the auto_increment that it adds it just fine if the ID value is added to the statement..without the ID value it enters the ID as '0'. I have another insert statement with another table that is doing the exact same thing. I'm kinda new and kinda not..so..any help is appreciated..

The example code is in Perl but the concepts are the same: > Basic Cookie Management http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/WebTechniques/col61.html Randal really slams bad cookie management. Me, I don't like using cookies at all anyhow. I like putting it in the url. Perl has more than a few CPAN modules to handle this. But it would be a lot of work to re-write any of those in PHP. I'm pretty much a PHP newbie myself. I often look here for "classes": http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/ And here are some for session management: http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/browse.html/class/21/ I just recently put Sessionara on a site I'm developing but the docs are skimply and it didn't work for me out of the box as I would have liked. But you might want to look at it. One thing is that it uses global and I HATE using global. This does not use cookies. I think you want a system that uses cookies. Try phpbuilder.net http://phpbuilder.net/search/?sort=Score&method=and&config=forum&restri ct=&exclude=&words=sessions Lots of stuff there. They probably have an article.

[PHP-DB] Re: Resource link errors
Hi Ken,
The %s is a method of formatting a string. Why not try echo or print
command instead?
As for the other problem on line 26, the mysql_query returns a resource id #
(an integer). You'll have to use that number in your loop to retrieve the
results after.
Here's an example:
$connectionid = msql_connect("mydatabaseserver")
or die("unable to connect!");
msql_select_db("db", $connectionid)
or die("unable to select records from the db!");
$result = msql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE someid=$my_id_variable",
$connectionid);
//if the query fails
if (!$result) {
die("problemo: Your query failed");
}
//now loop through the rows :)
while ($row = msql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo $row["0"];
}
Hope this helps you out :) Joe :)

[PHP-DB] Re: Session management
Hi Danny, you could use a cookie to store the user's username and password once they first successfully login the first time or even better upon signing up to your site. Then, on the login page(or whatever page is displayed prompting a login) you could check for the cookie at the top and redirect them to the appropriate page. If they don't have the cookie, prompt for a login action.

Re: [PHP-DB] addslashes()
Ahha, i see.
Hmm well you can make your own addslashes function like this. Add the
following line at the beginning of the php code
function superaddslashes($input) {
return ereg_replace ('"', '\"', $input);
}
Then you can do
$Notes = superaddslashes($Notes);

Subject: [PHP-DB] Resource link errors
Hello all,
I'm very new to php and have been beating my head on the wall over this for
2
days. I've searched through the php documentation but I guess I either don't
know where or what to look for or don't understand what I'm seeing.
I think this has to be an array but the original doesn't seem to think
so.(see below)
I've tried ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) and still get the same
errors.
The original that I used as an example works OK showing the results of Name,
Position. They didn't include a data cell for $myrow[3] ...
=
THIS WORKS:
\n";
echo "NamePosition\n";
while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
echo("%s %s%s\n", $myrow[1], $myrow[2],
$myrow[3]);
}
echo "\n";
include("footer.inc");
?>
===
What I am trying to do is to return the results of the query into a table
with these items:
+---+-+--+-+-++
| Field | Type| Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+---+-+--+-+-++
| id| tinyint(4) | | PRI | NULL| auto_increment |
| year | int(4) | YES | | NULL||
| make | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL||
| model | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL||
| engine| varchar(20) | YES | | NULL||
| fuel | varchar(8) | YES | | NULL||
| trans | varchar(10) | YES | | NULL||
| condition | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL||
| price | varchar(10) | YES | | 0 ||
| location | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL||
+---+-+--+-+-++
These are the errors that show up when I run the page in the browser.
The database is local and I'm on Linux-Mandrake 8.1 using Apache web server.
I can get the results I want from the command line, that is I can make
queries and get the proper info returned.
what have I done to cause it not to work?
Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link
resource in /var/www/html/list.php3 on line 26

THIS DOESN'T:
I get the table and the item name e.g. Year, Make etc.
Once I get the 3 cells returning the proper info, I want to add the rest of
the cells needed to display all the info in the web page. I don't think it
should be a problem, comments on this?

RE: [PHP-DB] Query with numbers like 1, 3, 5..........
I think you're on the right path.
It sounds like what you REALLY want is two equal length columns of products.
In that case, instead of 1,3,5,7,... which will become upset when you add
and delete products; use mysql_num_rows($result). That is:
$query="SELECT * FROM products WHERE ";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);
$length = floor($numrows/2);
if( mod($numrows,2)==1) $numrows++;
for( $i=0; $i<$numrows; $i++ )
{
$rowLeft = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$rowRight = mysql_fetch_array($result);
... print your data side-by-side ...
}
NOTE: you'll have to format for the situation where there are more
left-side rows than right-side; that is, there ae an odd number of products
to be displayed.

[PHP-DB] SSL - PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED
Hi all. I have the following configuration: I'm running a Cobalt RAQ4i with Linux Apache Web Server PHP Version 4.0.3pl1 We have an application which is used via ssl. There are occassions when a user presses on a submit button to post information to a database. The script itself is fine, there is no problem with the php scripts at all. The problem comes in, and I've seen this at other websites while using ssl, that sometime, when they click on the submit button the error message: "Page Cannot Be Displayed" comes up. If the user hits the Refresh button, the page is displayed just fine. Again, this doesn't always happen at the same place. Some users experience it more often than others. And ONLY Internet Explorer users get this message. It never happens with Netscape. I had hear somewhere an issue like this with SSL/Apache/PHP combination, but am not aware of the solution. Can anyone enlighten me or have any ideas? Thanks in Advance, Jeffrey Cleary -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I only want one entry. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance. Justin Hall JD Media www.jdmedia.net [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP-DB] Can't get left join to work
Here are the 2 tables and selected columns from each. Note there are only 4 employees who have trips (3 of those employees active, 1 inactive). If I do the following select, I only get 4 rows returned (or 3 if I say 'where active = 'A'). In addition to those, I want 1 row returned for each of the employees with 0 miles if there are no rows in the 'mileage' table for them. To put it another way, I always want the number of rows returned to be equal to the number of employees rows whose active_sw = 'A'. select e.id,lname,sum(m.miles) from employees e left join mileage m on e.id=m.id where month(m.trip_date) = 3 and substring(year(m.trip_date),3,2) = '02' group by e.id; CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS employees ( id varchar(30) NOT NULL, fname varchar(25) NOT NULL, lname varchar(30) NOT NULL, password varchar(12) NOT NULL, accum_miles_for_year real(7,2), active_sw varchar(1) NOT NULL, registration varchar(10), engine_sizesmallint unsigned, fuel_reimburse_ratereal(3,2) default 0, PRIMARY KEY (id)) ID FNAME ACTIVE_SW 2SamA 3Fred RobertA 4Paul A 121212121George A 121212122George C.

RE: [PHP-DB] Viewing Session Varibles
hmmm... If I was you.. I would make your cart an object.. build a simple
class like:
class Cart
{
var $items;
function Cart()
{
$this->items=Array();
}
function Add_To_Cart($item)
{
if(!in_array($item,$this->items)
{
Array_Push($this->items,$items;
}
}
function Remove_From_Cart($item)
{
if(in_array($item,$this->items)
{
unset($this->item[$items);
}
}
}
So in your script:
session_start();
if (!session_is_registered("cart"))
{
$cart = new Cart;
session_register("cart");
}
/* now you should be able to get everything like this */
$cart->Add_To_Cart($whatever);
$cart->Remove_From_Cart($whatever);
/* where $whatever is the array of item data... first of which would be the
id */
then you can manipulate it how ever you like.. just make the function inside
the cart clas and call it by $cart->function_name();
This way the only thing stored in the session is the object.. which contains
it all in place you can handle it. This is the only way I got reliable use
out sessions :p
I just whipped this off the top of my head.. so may not work :)

Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Viewing Session Varibles
Ok,
This is driving me nuts. I'm sure its something simple but I can't seem to
find the glitch.
I'm trying to make a simple shopping cart using Session varibles to store
the item => quantity pairs, then I loop thru the cart and query the db to
get the item details, etc.. Most of it works fine but whenever I add a new
item to the cart I lose the $qty value for the other items.
Here is the code in question:
++
$qty)
{
if ($$id == "0")
{
unset ($cart[$id]);
}else{
$cart[$id] = $$id;
}
$items = calculate_items($cart);
foreach ($cart as $id => $qty){
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "$databaseuser", "$databasepasswd") or die
("Unable to connect to database!");
mysql_select_db ("$databasename",$db) or die ("Unable to connect to database
$db!");
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * from products WHERE id = '$id'") or die
("Error in query. " . mysql_error());
if ($result){
extract(mysql_fetch_array($result));
echo "Title: $title";
echo "Description: $p_desc";
echo "Price: $price";
echo "Quantity: $qty";
echo "";
}
}
#print varibles to screen for debugging
echo"";
print_r($HTTP_SESSION_VARS);
echo"";
?>
+
If one item is in the cart I get this from the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS:
Array
(
[cart] => Array
(
[10] => 12
)
[items] => 12
[total_price] => 0.00
)
That would indicate to me that the cart pair has been saved.
But as I add items I lose the earlier quantities:
Array
(
[cart] => Array
(
[10] =>
[16] =>
[13] => 6
)
[items] => 6
[total_price] => 0.00
)
The $id is still there and I can query the db just fine, but no quantity.
I don't know why this is eluding me but any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert

Re: [PHP-DB] difference !!??
Bart, See this page for an explanation of quotes inside array brackets: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php Basically, the correct way to do it is to _always_ use quotes (single quotes for strings without variables, and double quotes for strings with variables). So your example below should use format #2 since there are no variables to expand. Format #1 below is deprecated, and I can attest to weird behavior when you use $row[$column_name] without double quotes. Hope this helps! Daniel Ems On Thu, 7 Feb 2002, B.

[PHP-DB] Creating a dynamic querry ??
Hi there,
I am building a picture search engine with a gui where the user can choose
categories and then choose from those categories several points.
It is almost impossible to build a querry out of that. I am having a problem
keeping it dynamic. It works if I am naming the category, but I would like
to make it dynamic
Here is an example what I am trying to get:
assuming there are following values:
$glacier = array("g_one", "g_two");
$lake = array ("l_one", "l_two");
$mountain = array ("m_one", "m_two");
// this returns the value for glacier
echo $glacier[1]; // g_two
// This code is creating a querry. User has a gui where he can choose
between the categories.
// It should loop through all possibilities Thats why I tryed to make the
$glacier $$category But somehow this does not work
// The problem is, that I want to loop through all. So I do not know if it
is a glacier, lake or mountain the user selected
building the querry:
if ($glacier[0] == 'empty'){ // show all glaciers
$search = "glacier IS NOT NULL";
}
else{ // show particular
$search = "glacier =";
for($i=0; $ihttp://www.php.net/)

[PHP-DB] Ok another update
Hi Everyone, I want to first thank you for helping with the last question I had. It didn't help but I finally figured it out. This one though has me stumped. I have started using a portal script thinking I might be able to see a little better how php works. It will do fine for me as far as my site will go. But here is the problem. I want to tell a user how many days they have left until a certain thing happens. The portal is phpwebthings so if anyone is familiar with it... The problem is I can't figure out how to get the username from the database here is the code I am trying to make work. I can't get it to work unless I specify a specific user. Like $query="select name, days from wt_users where uid=1"; How do I pull the user from the session? Also when I do specify a user and refresh the page it updates the count down how do I get it to only update once a day. Any help would be appreciated!
