[PHP-DB] RE: Images on MySQL
The kneejerk response always seems to be #2, store images in the filesystem and store their paths in the database. I like to compromise: store the original image in a dedicated "image data" table in the database (keep a separate table for image meta data (date/title/category/whatever) for faster queries, link the two with an 'image_id' field), then have the script which displays the image check for a copy in a specified directory in the filesystem; if it's not there, yank a copy from the database, resize/watermark as needed, and store in the directory. Otherwise, the script can just write the img href on the fly. This way you don't wind up with the overhead of pulling images from the DB on the fly every time (just the first time a script looks for the image), but you maintain a pristine copy of the original image in the database- especially nice for uploading photos straight out of a digital camera without monkeying around in Photoshop/GIMP; you get the web-sized copy in your /images directory, but you keep the full resolution copy in the db if you ever need it for something else. And if you ever need to move the db to a new server, you don't need to worry about moving all the image files separately. I suppose storage space might become a factor if the number of images climbed into the high hundreds or thousands, but it works great for me in smaller applications.

[PHP-DB] Uploading a file
Hi,
I want to upload a file to the server using a form.
Instead of using a text input, i'd like to open an Internet Explorer window,
(that one that apears when you click on File/Open).
I already have the code to copy the file.
I only want a way to select from local files.
How do this?

The mysql_fetch_array($result) function will return a "false" value.

[PHP-DB] Re: Advanced. Optimizing querry performance on a huge db with over 2.5 million entries
Hi Andy, it is difficult to give you an advice without the knowing about how you are searching the database. But if you have to search through all entries, it was a bad decision to split them up into 250 tables. Some other hints: You are lost without an index, because mysql have to do a full table scan to find the matching rows. CREATE INDEX cityidx ON cities (city(10)); creates an index for the leading 10 characters of the column which needs much less tablespace than a fulltext index and will probably fitt your needs. OPTIMIZE TABLE gm_cities; releases the tablespace lost after a DROP INDEX or after deleting rows. Do you really need a char(100) for the city names? If you can use char(50) instead, the table would be much smaller. Buy lot of ram and fast harddisks. And setup the mysql-server to use the ram proberly.

Just do a while loop:
while(preg_match("/string to find unconverted links/", $TextBody))
{
// preg_replace here
}
But make sure you're not doing this on the fly every time the page is
viewed. That will take up an enormous amount of resources with lots of
visitors. Just convert it and save the converted version for viewing.

[PHP-DB] Advanced. Optimizing querry performance on a huge db with over 2.5 million entries
Hi there, I used to work with a table containing over 2.5 million cities. This was verry slow even using indexes. So I did split the huge table into 250 tables named after their country. Example: gm_cities for the german city table. Now performance is ok, because my interface knows in which table to look at. A new problem arised. There is a need for a search on all tables to find a specific city. To find this city even in one table takes 0.5s which is a lot if you put it times 250 tables. I have to admit that there is no index on the city column yet. I tryed to put a full text index on the city column, but this busted up the table size from 2.5Mb to 7.5MB which made the querry take 1s. My questions are as follows: 1. whats wrong with this one table having 7.5Mb instead of 2.5 I did delete the index and optimized the table but still 7.5 2. What would be the best way to organize this data to make the search on this 2.5 mio entrys to take not longer than 0.5s? I could put it all into one table again, but this would meen a week of work because my application is based on this system. Maybe a good hint for putting the right index would be the best help for me. My tablestrukture looks like this: ID ->mediumint(9) unique index city ->char(100) province_id-> char(2) index A nother story would be that it might take even longer because I have to get the province name and the country name out of the table countries and provinces Thank you for any help, Andy -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: Re[2]: [PHP-DB] Insert into command - PHP
Well first, I don't know if you copied and pasted directly from your file,
but you're building your query in the variable $sql AFTER you run the query:
mysql_query($sql) or die(msql_error());
$sql = "Insert into table ('$field1','$field2',,'$field61')";
It should be:
$sql = "Insert into table ('$field1','$field2',,'$field61')";
mysql_query($sql) or die(msql_error());
However, you should also use the coding practice of:
$sql = "INSERT INTO table SET
NameOfField1='ValueOfField2',Field2='Value',Field3='Value', etc;"
It's a little easier to read and understand. Note that you don't really have
to do anything special to be able to separate the query onto multiple lines:
$sql = "INSERT INTO
table
SET
field='value',
field2='value';
";
mysql_query($sql) or die(msql_error());
... will work fine. No need for special characters - PHP will recognize
values and strings that are on multiple lines AS LONG AS the value starts
and ends with quotes (and the semicolon at the end).

Hi, thanks for the follow up.
I included the following command in the line...
mysql_query($sql) or die(msql_error());
$sql = "Insert into table ('$field1','$field2',,'$field61')";
The message returned was, "Query was empty"
I am suspect of the 61 fields. The line travels far out to the right.
Is there a way to properly code the line so it does not go so far to
the right.
Otherwise, no other report errors.

People have already answered this question, but here are some additional tips. Always make sure you include the NAME attribute of an INPUT - otherwise it can cause some headaches when you try to get the submitted data on the next page. So: You can also shorten the echo/print statement down to: I've heard that you can leave off the semi-colon, but I just consider it good coding habit to always end statements with semi-colons. - Jonathan -Original Message- From: Luis R.

[PHP-DB] Re: Images on MySQL
Hi Steve & *: Based on my experience, not only for MySQL, but any Database, I think it's better to keep just links to images instead of keep them in the database. Some of the reasons are, for example, when you need to update an image, you don't need to touch the database, only change the file. Another one would be if you try to move to another Database and it does not support those types, then you won't be able to keep your images in the database. One more... In a heavy traffic site or environment it would be faster and more efficient to serve the images directly from the file system than from the database having several users connected at the same time. Anyway, there is not a solution that is better than the other. It all depends on what you want to do, how you want to do it, and the environment, specifications and resources that you have.

RE: [PHP-DB] Unknown column 'Test' in 'field list'
Even though this is solved, I should mention a method that I find to be personally easier to use when INSERTing records. Simply use the field=value method: INSERT INTO MyTable SET firstname='Joe', lastname='Bob', age=58; By doing it this way, you don't have to worry about matching up the number of columns to values, or the order of the fields (the above example could have age or lastname as the first value without changing the output). Not to mention this method is a little easier to read and easier to construct. - Jonathan -Original Message- From: Jennifer Downey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 6:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Unknown column 'Test' in 'field list' Never mind I forgot to put ' ' around $u_name in my insert.

Re: [PHP-DB] displaying info in a form
I have come across this before. Make sure you put "" around the value field
and then single quotes around the variable, ie.

value, you do not need to use the single quotes around $id)

Re: [PHP-DB] Images on MySQL
I keep hearing this from people (not to store images in mysql), but I would like to hear a bit more about why. Mysql has blob fields, so it seems perfectly reasonable to use them, doesn't it? I'm storing some images in a database and what's attractive to me about it is that I can put the images anywhere I like. I guess I could mount an image directory over NFS, but it seems easier and more consistent to use sql. Any thoughts on this? -Steve On Friday, March 29, 2002, at 05:43 AM, Jason Wong wrote: > On Thursday 28 March 2002 19:35, Clever wrote: >> Hi, >> I'm designing a site and I have to store a lot of images. >> Which is the best for speed? >> 1) Store all images on a MySQL table? >> 2) Save them on disk like normal files and only have pointers to them >> on >> the database? > > 2) > > > -- > Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk > > /* > The only difference in the game of love over the last few thousand years > is that they've changed trumps from clubs to diamonds. > -- The Indianapolis Star > */ > > -- > PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] displaying info in a form
Hi to all,
I'm trying to display data in a form, but for some reason I can display the
entire value of every field that has more than two words in the text box.
For example, if I want to display the name CASTRO TRUCKING, the text field
only display the first word CASTRO.
I tried to use the trim() function, but it didn't work.
Any idea?
Thanks in advanced.
Nato
here is the code
";
while($query_data = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$tracking_num = $query_data[0];
$id = $query_data[1];
$name = $query_data[2];
$user = $query_data[3];
$comment = $query_data[4];
}

[PHP-DB] Insert into command - PHP
Crafted from The Desk on location in the Quality Lab. Hello PHP, -- I'm using the mysql_query() function. I have 61 fields (e.g, '$fname','$lname'etc) to insert into the data table. No matter what I do, the data is not loaded into the table. I've tried smaller tables with less than 11 fields and the data is loaded correctly. Question: [1] Does PHP have a limit on the number of fields? [2] How does one stop the line from running to the right. "\n" does not appear to work. Any insights would be extremely helpful. If you can point me to a direct resource on the web, I'm glad to do the homework. Thanks. -- Best regards, Ethan J.

Re: [PHP-DB] Images on MySQL
In my experience storing images on disk is simpler, easier and not messy. I wouldn't think of storing binaries in a MySQL table...It just doesn't seem right, but then again I have never tested this, only relied on my peers telling me "It's not right" ;) -Lasse - Original Message - From: "Clever" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 12:35 PM Subject: [PHP-DB] Images on MySQL > Hi, > I'm designing a site and I have to store a lot of images. > Which is the best for speed? > 1) Store all images on a MySQL table? > 2) Save them on disk like normal files and only have pointers to them on the > database? > Thanks a lot > Clever Anjos > > > > -- > PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi, I'm designing a site and I have to store a lot of images. Which is the best for speed? 1) Store all images on a MySQL table? 2) Save them on disk like normal files and only have pointers to them on the database?
