[PHP-DB] calling a page for each row
We need to load a page which performs some tasks specific to each record, including writing some results to another table. I have tried to place a page loading script within the while loop that creates the table, but it seems to only load the page on the last record in the table. Is there a better way to do this?

Why does it need to call a page to do all the work? If it was just a function call you'd be off and racing already. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It makes a geocode request from Google Maps and then parses the resulting json code and then writes the parsed data to another table. I guess it could be done with functions, but the other page was already written... :-) I guess you could do a file_get_contents on the url of the page. If I call a function, will the while loop wait for the function to complete before going to the next row?

I'll see if I can imbed the page as functions... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
