[PHP-DB] PHP problem
Sorry to be a little bit off topic i have code that generates: SELECT NAME=xxx OPTION LABEL=1LONG TEXT 1 OPTION LABEL=2LONG TEXT 2 OPTION LABEL=3LONG TEXT 3 /SELECT in the script I check value of $xxx and I get i.e. LONG TEXT 1 despite of 1.

Re: [PHP-DB] using sendmail w/ windows
CrossWalkCentral, any one know how to use send mail with windows instead of linux. Will this work are their other options? Beware of crosswires! Yes one can send mail (the activity of email) from PHP running on Windows. I wouldn't bother with loading sendmail (the name of the package) onto a Windows machine! Take a look at the php.ini's mail section. There are three lines. One is Unix only - leave commented out. Uncomment the other two. One is your default 'from' address. The other points PHP at an SMTP server (can be on any machine - the PHP server, another in the local network, some remote/ISP on the Internet). RTFM about mail(). Email from PHP under Windows is in many ways easier than the same under Linux! Regards, =dn -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DB] Euro Dates into MySQL
Hi all, I have a site where dates are being displayed and also entered by users. I don't want to offend them by asking them to use the -mm-dd format or to split the date into its constituent parts. I am displaying by using the MySQL Date_Format syntax and that's fine. I get dd/mm/ and I want to be able to have the user enter 'dd/mm'' into a form and have it put into MySQL in the -mm-dd format. Now I have written a function in php to do this but I might be mising an easier, more elegant/efficient way of doing this. Any suggestions?

Like: zip customer a customer b zip customer d customer e zip customer c custoemr f customer g Do I need to build array's and loop through them or can I print straight from a record set ( using Postgresql or Mysql ) As a general rule, I would ask the RDBMS to do as much as possible (WHERE, GROUP BY, ORDER BY, HAVING), before handing the data to PHP - then use PHP to concentrate on getting the formatting/presentation (HTML) right! What you're asking for is quite common - and easy to implement (once you know how). Does that 'philosophy' answer your question, or were you wanting coding-level advice? If so, please post your current SQL query and if it's not too long, the pertinent part of your PHP prototype, and I/someone else here, will be happy to make suggestions.

No need for arrays - the resultset from the RDBMS effectively is one - SQL-talk says it's a table (please show us your SQL query if you have any doubt about this). Make sure the SQL resultset is sorted/grouped correctly! You're approach looks right to me - just more CF than PHP-like. How's this? query RDBMS check result ok/have at least one row extract first row initiate presentation WHILE not EoD note zip code ECHO zip heading WHILE this row's zip == noted zip AND not EoD ECHO customer data end while zip extract next row from resultset end while data terminate presentation OK?

RE: [PHP-DB] Grouped sql output
Not entirely sure what you're trying to do, but would it be sensible to
use...
$sql=SELECT * FROM Customers ORDER BY zip ASC;
.
.
and then when you've got the results...
if ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$zip=0;
$zipcount=0;
do {
if ($zip!=$myrow[zip]){
if ($zipcount!=0){
echo (/ol\n/ul\n);
}else{
$zipcount=1;
}
echo (ul\nli$zip/li\nol\n);
}
echo (li$myrow[customer]/li\n);
}while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result));
echo (/ol\n/ul\n);
}
or something like that anyways ;)
hope that's useful?
cheers,
Matt

RE: [PHP-DB] Grouped sql output
Hi,
Thanks for the input,
I'll stop messing around and post some code
Be warned this code is untested :-)
It's kinda like thinking out loud.
I think this should produce a nested list output from a query.
Given this query :
SELECT count(zip) AS zipcount,zip,cust_last_name
FROM customers
GROUP BY zip
ORDER BY zip,cust_last_name;
My php code might look like : ( for Postgresql )
$thiszip = pg_result($res,0,0); // the first zip code in the record set
echo ul; // open main list
for ( $i=0; $i=pg_numrows($res); ++$i ) // begin loop over record set
{
if ( pg_result($res,$i,0) != $thiszip ) // if this zip is the same as the last
{
if ( $thiszip != no_zip_yet ) // if this is true we have an open ol list
{ echo /ol;}
echo li.pg_result($res,$i,0); // output zip code
echo ol; // open inner list
echo li.pg_result($res,$i,1); // output customer data
$thiszip = pg_result($res,$i,0); // track current zip
}
else // zip is same as last one
{
echo li.pg_result($res,$i,1); // output customer data
}
} // finish loop.
echo /ul; // close main list.
What do you think ?
I'll test it tomorrow at work.
I'll let you know how she goes.
Thanks for your time, suggestions and attention.
Much appreciated.
Regards
Rudi.

not just build the array variable you want, then save it into a session,

Re: [PHP-DB] Finding records with NULL values
Hi Robin, Use a standard select like you normally would, and in your where clause, use where [field] is null : select field1[, field2, ...] from table1[, table2, ...] where fieldx is null [...] -bsh Robin McKenzie wrote: I have a table of questions, and a table of responses (initially empty) which gets updated every time an answer is submitted, with the question number, member id and response.

PS. You should consider using mysql_fetch_row() or at least mysql_fetch_array() for perforance reasons.

Would it be faster if all you wanted was one variable, or your SQL statement only returned on cell? -- William Fong - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 626.968.6424 x210 | Fax: 626.968.6877 Wireless #: 805.490.7732| Wireless E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Bogdan Stancescu [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Ryan Snow [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2002 2:32 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] variable interpolation in mysql queries : PS.

[PHP-DB] Re: php-db Finding records with NULL values
Pretty easy really SELECT * FROM foo WHERE bar is NULL - DON'T use quotes NULL is a valid string it is not the same as NULL - Some DBMS's allow you to say bar = NULL but technically this is wrong because NULL is undefined and cannot be equal to anything not even another NULL. - Also is not NULL - be sure you blank fields are NULL and not - A clever way to search for both and NULL in the same query is: SELECT * FROM foo WHERE NOT bar This may not work in all DBMS's but give it a try; OR would work too.

Re: [PHP-DB] variable interpolation in mysql queries
First of all that should throw an error, correct syntax is mysql_result ($query, 0) meaning to grab the 0 index returned. I am not sure about performance wise, however I dislike mysql_result since if nothing is returned then you get a runtime error. Instead I like to use list($pd) = mysql_fetch_row ( mysql_query ( select password from users where login = '$login' ) ); Then you can test $pd without getting sql errors. -- Stewart --- Ryan Snow [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Im kinda new to this list.

Re: [PHP-DB] variable interpolation in mysql queries
Cool, I didn't know you could embed mysql_query(...) inside mysql_fetch_row(...). That's kinda nice--I hate having a line each for 1-connecting, 2-selecting, 3-querying, and 4-resulting. I'll hafta try that. Thanks. Ryan On Tue, 26 Feb 2002, Stewart Gateley wrote: First of all that should throw an error, correct syntax is mysql_result ($query, 0) meaning to grab the 0 index returned.
