RE: [PHP-DB] [Import text file]

2003-02-13 Thread Hutchins, Richard
A quick trip through the MySQL manual hints that you may have to use forward
slashes in your path on a windows system. So...

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:/WINDOWS/TEMP/phpC255.TMP'  INTO TABLE 
abonnes FIELDS TERMINATED BY ';' ESCAPED BY '\\' LINES TERMINATED BY 
'\r\n' (dp_indpri,dp_nom,dp_ville)

...might just do the trick (note the forward slashes in the path to the
file).

Hope this helps.

[PHP-DB] MySQL problem -- new to PHP

2003-02-13 Thread Evan Morris
Hi all

I am new to PHP (just basically started yesterday). I am currently having a
problem connecting to a MySQL database.

My sample code is:

--
?php
mysql_connect(localhost,username,password) or die (Unable to connect to
MySQL server.);
$db = mysql_select_db(DB_NAME) or die (Unable to select requested
database.);
?
---

This throws the following error:

---
Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Host 'my.host.name' is not allowed to
connect to this MySQL server
---

Now, the mySQL server and the web server reside on the same machine. This
warning is therefore saying that this machine does not have permission to
connect to itself. Hmm. I have put entries in the host table and the user
table, using both hostname and ip address, but no luck. I keep getting the
same error.

What am I doing wrong?

Any and all help appreciated.

Thanks

RE: [PHP-DB] MySQL problem -- new to PHP

2003-02-13 Thread Clarkson, Nick

Looks like is to do with MySQL permissions. Check your host's (the one you
are trying to connect from) permissions to the server.

To change permissions, from the MySQL prompt type;

GRANT ALL ON * TO username@host IDENTIFIED BY password;

Substitute in username, host and password for your ones.

Easier to use PHPMyAdmin or SQLYog (www.sqlyog.com) if you're new to it. I'm
pretty new, so learning all the time.

A couple of links to get you started;
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/GRANT.html

RE: [PHP-DB] MySQL problem -- new to PHP

2003-02-13 Thread Clarkson, Nick

PHPMyAdmin is just a web-based tool for administering MySQL and it's pretty
intuitive, assuming you've used similar tools before. You can download it
and read more here http://www.phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/

I would recommend SQLYog as an alternative;
http://www.webyog.com/sqlyog/index.html as it's VERY intuitive and pretty
simple to use.

But then you can't beat going straight into the MySQL prompt and learning
from there

Here are some good links for tutorials and examples;

www.php.net and www.mysql.com for searching on specific functions - unless
you have the memory of a few Cray computers ;o)

http://www.evilwalrus.com
http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/
http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/MySQL/
http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/

There are tons out there, but they are good starting points.

Good luck,

Nick

You can begin by not hijacking a thread and changing the topic.  When you
want to start something new, start a fresh message.

You could next check the list archives; this comes up at least twice a
month.

After that you could take a look at the Fine Manual and read the Fine

That's all there is to it!

 gradebook I'm building.
 
 When I add a user to the users table, I also generate a encrypted version
 of their password using the following statement:
 
// Crypt the password
$crypt_num = crypt($student_num, $salt);  
// Crypt the password
$crypt_pw = crypt($password, $salt);
 
 Then, when the user tries to log on later, they enter their password, and
 it gets encrypted in exactly the same way. The encrypted version of the PW
 is then compared to the encrypted version stored in a passwords table --
 if they match, then the script validates the user and prints out the
 user's assignment scores.
 
 However, I've noticed that if anything past the 8th character in the
 password is irrelevant. So, if the password was 12345678910, and the
 user entered 12345678, the user would be able to enter. In other words,
 the encrypted version of 12345678910 would be the same as the encrypted
 version of 12345678.
 
 I think there must be something with my crypt statement -- any advice?

If you want more than 8 characters, use MD5 or some such.  Unix crypt as
used for passwords doesn't do more than 8 characters.  MD5 passwords can
do much more.

RE: [PHP-DB] Simple PHP Script

2003-02-13 Thread Ryan Jameson (USA)
It's the good ole' register_globals feature...

You'll need to either turn register_globals on in your php.ini file or access the 
variables from their respective arrays ($_SERVER,$_GET,$_POST)... since your form 
method is post it will be: $_POST['vname'].

Make sense?

If you put this at the top of your page it will extract these all for you:

if (!empty($_SERVER))
  extract($_SERVER);
  
if (!empty($_GET)) {
extract($_GET);
} else if (!empty($HTTP_GET_VARS)) {
extract($HTTP_GET_VARS);
}

if (!empty($_POST)) {
extract($_POST);
} else if (!empty($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
extract($HTTP_POST_VARS);
}

Subject: [PHP-DB] Simple PHP Script


Hi,

I am new to PHP and had just written a simple php script to get things
started.  I have the following code:


html
body
?php
if($submit1) {
echo hello $vname;
} else {
?
form action=thispage.php method=post
table
trtdInput yourname/tdtdinput type=text name=vname/td/tr
trtd colspan=2input type=submit name=submit1/td/tr
/table
/form
?php
}
?
/body
/html

So this page is suppose to display a input box and a submit button and once
you enter ur name and press the button, it should show Hello [ur name] and
the input box at the bottom of it and the button below and the process
continue.

I tried running it and inputted some text and pressed the button, and the
Hello [ur name] didn't show up, it just display an input box and the submit
button.

Can someone please help me?

Thanks a lot

Kelvin

RE: [PHP-DB] Simple PHP Script

2003-02-13 Thread Hutchins, Richard
Try referring to your variables as: 

$_POST['submit1'] and
$_POST['vname']

Then check our register_globals on php.net to find out why.

I'm pretty sure that's what the problem is.

[PHP-DB] first 10 or so words

2003-02-13 Thread Bruce Levick
Howdy,
I have a SELECT query displaying the results in repeated rows in a
table. I have a COMMENTS column coming out of the database table which
will likely contain a paragraph of information. I would like to display
only the first 10 or so words and then have a more link that people can
click on to display all the info. Is there a simple method for this??
 
Cheers

[PHP-DB] dump data, and save as a file

2003-02-13 Thread Ruth Zhai
Hi everyone,
I want to dump some data from mysql into a file, and use php to force the browser to 
pop a download file window.  This seems a simple procedure, but I am having trouble to 
make it work with IE.  The following is what I did:


ob_start();
$query = SELECT * FROM table; 
$result=mysql_query($query); 
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) 
{ 
   echo $row['data']; 
} 
header(Cache-control: private); 
header(Content-Type: application/txt); 
header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.txt);   
//Note: I also tried:  header(Content-Disposition: inline; filename=test.txt); 

ob_end_flush(); 
*

It seems OK with Netscape, but with IE, all I got is all data displayed on the screen 
even with ob_start().  I also tried echo the data after header(), I have the same 
result.  I have spent a long time on this, and searched for information on 
www.php.net, but can not find an answer.  Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Ruth
