RE: [PHP-DB] MySql Help needed
Hi Try running a grant query GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,CREATE,DROP,ALTER ON database_name.* TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] IDENTIFIED BY 'mypassword'; which will probably fix it Peter -Original Message- From: Sparky Kopetzky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 30 March 2003 04:12 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] MySql Help needed Greetings! I am building an application in PHP and am creating a global $connect_id for MySql. I have MySql on a separate machine and am using the connect like this: $server = development.myservermachine.net; $username = myname; $password = mypassword; $connect_id = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password); All I get is 'Access denied for user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password:YES) Now, I know I'm in the DNS server for my system, and the username and password are correct as I checked the User table. Any thoughts, ideas, etc. toward fixing this problem?? I'd appreciate any help provided.

Re: [PHP-DB] multiple connections to MySQL in a single script example
You will use the mysql_select_db() function. It sets the currently active database. You will call this function each time you wish to change which database is being used prior to issuing a query. You need to open only one connection as long as the databases are on the same server. If you are using multiple servers, you will require a connection to each with unique resource link_identifiers. Then you will have to include the desired resource link_id in each call to mysql_select_db(). There is no need to close and re-open connections between each use.

[PHP-DB] naming conventions
hi all, i was just wondering if there are any naming conventions when creating database connections. most of my books use $sql = SQL STRING; and $sth = $db-query() or $result = $db-query() I have no idea what sth stands for in this case, but was curious how others name stuff. thanks Charles -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP-DB] naming conventions
In essence it doesn't matter so much which convention you use as long you use a convention, use it consistently and the convention itself doesn't come with too much complexity of it's own and is based on a clear philosophy. The naming convention I use in any environment or language uses simple prefixes and is based on two points: 1. the name should show the origin of the variable/function/table/query and what more; 2. it should show the functional context / meaning In other words: 1. Where can I find it; 2. What does it mean. Of course, the naming convention must be combined with structure conventions. Just thinking along ...

[PHP-DB] Resize pictures and store with MySQL
Hi. I want to use PHP and MySQL to help make it easier to put pictures on a website. What I want to do is make a page that allows the client to submit a picture (or a bunch of pictures) and a caption for each picture to me via a form of some sort. Then, once the file gets here, I would like it to resize the photo to a preset size and store it with it's caption. Is this possible? If so, is there also a way to get php to dynamically design a web page with each of these photos (complete with their captions) on it? I am using PHP 4.2 and MySql 3.23.

Re: [PHP-DB] Resize pictures and store with MySQL
Just to illustrate how you'd go about doing this: - User uploads image description - You resize image with GD functions (look at imagecopyresized()) - Store URL and description to the mySQL table you made It's a very simple thing to do once you organize your file structure where you're going to be storing the images. To retrieve them, you just need to know the image's ID and query based upon that. From there, you can access the image's URL or caption as you need. You can very easily create a script to display the images by querying the DB for X entries and displaying them per page. What you're basically describing is the functionality that MANY blogs have. You can probably find some free scripts online with a minimum amount of searching. -Mike -Original Message- From: Frank McIsaac [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2003 12:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Resize pictures and store with MySQL Hi.

[PHP-DB] Create table example
Good afternoon!! I have several (50+) tables I have to create in MySql. Is there a good PHP example on creating a table via PHP?? I will probably do all of the initial INSERTS that way, too. Thanks!! Robin Kopetzky Black Mesa Computer/Internet Services www.blackmesa-isp.net
RE: [PHP-DB] Create table example
I have several (50+) tables I have to create in MySql. Is there a good PHP example on creating a table via PHP?? I will probably do all of the initial INSERTS that way, too. You don't create a table via PHP, you simply pass a query through the mysql_query() function. If that query is a CREATE TABLE, then a table will be created. It can also be a INSERT, SELECT, SHOW, UPDATE, etc... All you're doing is passing a string through mysql_query() that MySQL is going to attempt to run as a query. So, for you, you'd need to use: Mysql_query(CREATE TABLE ... ); Mysql_query(INSERT INTO ... VALUES ... ); Fill in the blanks... Now, if you have all of these queries in a file, there may be an easier way to automate all of this, but you'll be doing the same thing, essentially. You can only pass one query at a time with mysql_query(). ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.

PHP doesn't have a date type. Ummm That's a good reason! As I said, I'm a newbie to PHP, and somewhere along the line I got the idea that there was an actual date data type. I don't know where I got that idea; the book I've been using certainly doesn't say that it does, although I thought I did.
