RE: [PHP-DB] List menus
Hello, there is a very good menu to do this : see PEAR html_menu (see http://pear.php.net, search for package HTML_Menu) this has various menu types. One is the 'tree' (vertical list), the other is the 'urhere', which will display the 'You are in:...' menu. I guess this is mhat you need. This works very well as long as you have a distinct URL for every menu item, which is usually the case. I guess there is a PEAR::DB wrapper that will let you connect and fetch the data from a database. I did my own menu class to fetch my own menu data and display of using the HTML_Menu. A good point is also the 'renderers' wich let you create new layouts for the very same menu data. this will help you create special menus for your customers...

RE: [PHP-DB] Special Character
Hi, You can maybe have a problem between a UTF-8 webserver and a ASCII (latin or whatever) database? Do you know the default_charset of your webserver (check the php.ini) and do you know the charset of your database? and the charset of your oracle client ? all 3 will play a role... this : 'De l'Bge du fer au haut Moyen Bge.' really looks like inserting a UTF/unicode char into a ascii (latin, ...) database... I think the best solution would be to keep the htmlentities to store the chars into the database, no? this way would ensure you insert only 'simple' chars, at least as long as you do not enter chinese or foreign chars in your website. vincent -Original Message- From: David Skyers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thu 23/11/2006 10:29 To: Chris Cc: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] Special Character Hi Chris, Yes, I was using htmlentities, I have now removed that and now 'De l'Âge du fer au haut Moyen Âge.' gets inserted into oracle as 'De l'Bge du fer au haut Moyen Bge.'

RE: [PHP-DB] Special Character
I you use a SQL adapter, like ADO, it could do the htmlentities it self... However, if you would like to change this, note that oracle will consider some chars as 'special chars', like (if I remember well) the &. To be able to insert a string with these chars, you need to search/replace them by their ascii value (use the Oracle function chr() This is specially true when inserting urls. vincent -Original Message- From: Chris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wed 22/11/2006 22:17 To: David Skyers Cc: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Special Character David Skyers wrote: > Hi Kevin, > > Thanks for this, it got rid of my special characters.
