First, You should have an id field in this table so that each texts has its own id. And by the way, I would do several tables, not only one. For example, one table would contain the definition of all the documents (id, title, creation_date, author,etc), and another one would contain the chapters which would be linked to the documents table by the text_id field (id, text_id, chapter_type, chapter_title, chapter_text). For the chapter_type field, there are two schools of thought about that. Either you put directly the type ("Editorial", "policy") in the field by defining it's a char field, or you put an id field linked to another table containing the types of chapters (id, chapter_type_str). Some people say that is useless, although it allows you to change the name of a chapter only by changing one field value instead of updating as much lines in your main db as there is of that chapter type. I'm used to do that latter way. Anyway, to sum it up, i'd have three tables to do your thing. But Maybe some other people can think of better architecture. I just woke up and didn't have my shower yet. And no, I'm not a nerd because I'm already surfing right after waking up, I just happened to come on my computer to check an important work mail before going to shower, and that's when I saw this mail and decided to be a good samaritan today :) What are my concerns : Is a database done for this kind of thing ? Yes, most definitely. Database are the way to go for such things. The important keyword is good indexing thou :) What is it better : - to have the text of each chapter in the database (as above) - to have one file for each chapter and only the adress of the file in the db If you wanna be able to make a search in a particular type of chapters, it'll be more efficient to split the texts in the database otherwise you'll have to split it within your code which can be tricky and will drastically alter the performance of your code. To display correctly the text, line breakdown should be kept. Is it possible to keep them in the database ? Yes, check out the strings functions in php, they should help you do that. (nl2br() eg). You'll just have to put some \n in the database whenever there needs a line feed.

[PHP-DB] [BUG?] pg_fetch_array
I have a database running on PostgreSQL. My script runs an SQL query and then retrieves the data with calls to pg_fetch_array. It then stores each record for later use, looking it up in memory. What I have found is that pg_fetch_array is not reliable in terms of the key name in the associative array. To test this I retrieved data using a call to pg_fetch_array and then used the following code shown in the PHP help file to print out the fields and their data: while (list ($key, $val) = each ($row)) echo "$key = $valbr"; This will return each field twice: once with a numeric key, and once with a named key. However in some cases the named key does not return any data. Here is an example: 0 = 27 scheduleid = 27 1 = M10V PMT displaytext = M10V PMT 2 = Mitre 10 Visa Payment Due descriptext = 3 = https://sec.westpactrust.co.nz/servlet/Banking?xtr=Logon url = 4 = t current = t 5 = f reminder = f 6 = hideinsummary = 7 = 35 occurrid = 35 8 = 27 9 = 26/12/2000 occurdate = 26/12/2000 10 = 00:00:00 starttime = 00:00:00 11 = 00:00:00 endtime = 00:00:00 12 = t allday = t 13 = 3 importance = 3 14 = repeats = 15 = 16 = There are 17 fields in the result set (correct). You can see the problem occurring in field 2 and 3. The numeric key returns values but the named key doesn't. This doesn't occur on every single record, only on some records. The other problem is that there is no named key for when the same field name is returned a second time. Postgres names these fields the same except it adds "_1" on the end of the name. But this is evidently left unresolved by PHP. Fields 8, 15 and 16 are examples. The only reliable way I can see of being able to retrieve the data is to use numbered rather than fieldname references. It only seems to apply to a few fields and is without logic, since in some cases it does dereference correctly. -- === Patrick Dunford, Christchurch, NZ - http://pdunford.godzone.net.nz/ Rejoice in the Lord always.

Re: [PHP-DB] Oracle vs MS SQL vs MySQL
Brian, To echo your other replies, there is always a trade-off between cost, ease of mainenance, usability, and functionality. PHP seems to go quite hand-in-hand with MySQL, despite some limitations. I'd take a look at the MySQL site and see first if you can live with those limitations. Ive been living in an ASP/Access world for the past year, for mostly "light" internet and intranet applications. Due to the mainfame side of our IS dept. and the fact that we have a Data Adminstration dept. that is dedicated to IBM's DB2, we are required to use the DB2 UDB database (a DB2 server on PC, if you will) for future development. Best I can say here to anyone is "stay away"! My vote is with MySql, unless you'vegot to do triggers, sub-selects, or views, or simply have to create work for a pre-existing DBA Phil J.
