i have a question about how to use sql database with php instead of using my
sql database
when i use my sql database the php code to connect to the my sql database is
=
$conn = mysql_connect($hostname, $user, $password);
if(!$conn)
{
echo Unable to connect to Database;
}
else
{
mysql_select_db($database, $conn);
$query = mysql_query($selectquery);
mysql_close($conn);
}
if i have to connect to a sql databse instead of my sql database as some
companies use sql database, how can i change the php code to connect, run a
query and close connection to the sql database.
apart from changing the code to connect to sql database is there something
else i need to do.
please advice.
thanks

You should print the results that you are looking for!
Are you looking for something like this?
Array
(
[5] = Array
(
[1] = Array
(
[0] = some text
)
)
)
how is the $node string being created?
---End Message---
---BeginMessage---
No offense, but I thought it's obvious what I want to print.
print_r() shows null, and it should print what you just wrote = array field.
It works when first defining with eval():
eval('$tpl'.$node.'=array();');
I guess that's the only way.
Anyway, I appreciate your quick reply,

Nope, you have to use the eval() everytime for read/write.

It's buggy... you need to test for an blank string to properly handle
the append to array case when the index is blank [].

I also removed the (int) cast since integer keys will be cast
automatically by PHP and then it will have support for text keys also.

I probably shouldn't trim... since we're not supporting quotes in any

use forward slashes to separate keys.

Hi there,
While this question can spur some neat solutions, it raises a red flag
in that if you need to do this, you probably need to rethink things a
bit.
In cases like this it is easier for people to help if you describe the
actual problem you are trying to solve, not how you think it needs to
be solved. It could be that you don't really need weird (but
beautiful, like Jim's idea) solutions. If you explain why you believe
that you need to do this in the first place, maybe someone can suggest
something else which doesn't require a weird solution (however
beautiful).

[PHP]Executing a .jar from a php script
Hi,
I would like to execute a jar file using exec('java -jar JARNAME option'),
but so far, my web application didn't gave me any hint that it did anything
(I tried to echo the result of the function, but nothing), and in fact I
don't think anything was done.
The jar file is in the same folder as the php scripts, so I don't know what
I did wrong.

when you're changing database apps, you're normally going to have to change
the connection codem as well as possibly the query structure for your
different select/insert/etc.. queries.
there should be plenty of examples/tutorials on the net, as well as in the

Subject: [PHP] question about using sql server with php
i have a question about how to use sql database with php instead of using my
sql database
when i use my sql database the php code to connect to the my sql database is
=
$conn = mysql_connect($hostname, $user, $password);
if(!$conn)
{
echo Unable to connect to Database;
}
else
{
mysql_select_db($database, $conn);
$query = mysql_query($selectquery);
mysql_close($conn);
}
if i have to connect to a sql databse instead of my sql database as some
companies use sql database, how can i change the php code to connect, run a
query and close connection to the sql database.
apart from changing the code to connect to sql database is there something
else i need to do.
please advice.

Re: [PHP]Executing a .jar from a php script
Does the php server have access to run that file? (ie. if its apache,
does he or his group have the rights to run that file)
Also you can try to use $var = system('java -jar JARNAME', $dump); and
try to output from both variables.

From your original context it wasn't clear whether you wanted to cache the dom document *object* that represents the xslt or the output of the transfer after it is applied. As I explained, (and I think I'm still correct in this), storing the object would be kinda pointless as it would have to be serialized to string form and then re-parsed on wakeup. Doing this rather than reloading from disk again, will save a minor amount of IO and thus time, but the saving will be minimal. So IMO caching the xslt is not worth the effort. Cache the output of the transform and load the xslt only when needed.

Re: [PHP] question about using sql server with php
You also need to make sure that your server has the mysql drivers
installed. A linux server does not come with this support natively.

Problem solved:
function __autoload($c) {
$m = array();
preg_match('/(?:^[A-Z][a-z]+)Controller/', $c, $m);
if (count($m)) {
require_once(realpath(FS_CONTROLLER . '/' . strtolower($m[0]) .

}
}
However (perhaps a more appropriate question), do you think there is an
easier/better way to do this??

Ok, spurred on with the success so far (but not changing the form of
my code
just yet), I changed it to:
function __autoload($c) {
$m = array();
preg_match('/Fred(^[A-Z][a-zA-Z]+)/', $c, $m);
if (count($m)) {
require_once(realpath(FS_COMPONENT . '/' . strtolower($m[1]) .
'.inc.php'));
}
var_dump($m);
preg_match('/(?:^[A-Z][a-z]+)Controller/', $c, $m);
if (count($m)) {
require_once(realpath(FS_CONTROLLER . '/' . strtolower($m[0]) .
'.inc.php'));
}
}
With the aim of also matching anything starting with 'Fred'. It
didn't work
until I took the caret ^ out:
function __autoload($c) {
$m = array();
preg_match('/Fred([A-Z][a-zA-Z]+)/', $c, $m);
if (count($m)) {
require_once(realpath(FS_COMPONENT . '/' . strtolower($m[1]) .
'.inc.php'));
}
var_dump($m);
preg_match('/(?:^[A-Z][a-z]+)Controller/', $c, $m);
if (count($m)) {
require_once(realpath(FS_CONTROLLER . '/' . strtolower($m[0]) .
'.inc.php'));
}
}
What I don't understand is why I needed it in one, but not in
another??
If you're going to use regular expressions you need to read the manual
to understand how they work. There's a whole section of the manual
that covers this - go read it to understand what the ^ means!

Has this thread not already taken more than an hour?

One needs to fully understand the problem themselves and preparing the right question helps in finding a solution.

I've got a script that downloads files queued from a server, and it's launched by a Windows Scheduled Task that launches every minute. My understanding of the default behavior is that if the task is still running a minute later when it's time to launch again, a duplicate thread will not be launched. The remote server administrator wants me to launch multiple threads all day - in my mind the wrong choice, since multiple download threads slow everyone one, but that's what he wants.

I'm going out on a limb by thinking the PHP was on a Windows web server

We use a linux webserver but have a need to connect to MSSQL databases.
Since I used Fedora, I was lucky enough to find the PHP-MSSQL package but
that has only been available via yum recently. My first attempt at
connecting to MSSQL was much more difficult when I was using FC3.

when you're changing database apps, you're normally going to have to
change
the connection codem as well as possibly the query structure for your

there should be plenty of examples/tutorials on the net, as well as in

Subject: [PHP] question about using sql server with php
i have a question about how to use sql database with php instead of
using
my
sql database
when i use my sql database the php code to connect to the my sql
database
is
=
$conn = mysql_connect($hostname, $user, $password);
if(!$conn)
{
echo Unable to connect to Database;
}
else
{
mysql_select_db($database, $conn);
$query = mysql_query($selectquery);
mysql_close($conn);
}
if i have to connect to a sql databse instead of my sql database as
some
companies use sql database, how can i change the php code to connect,
run a
query and close connection to the sql database.
apart from changing the code to connect to sql database is there
something
else i need to do.
please advice.
thanks

What distribution are you using for your server, as every distro I've
ever touched has them. Also, the question was regarding connection to a
mssql database, not mysql. As he didn't specify the operating system,
I'm going out on a limb by thinking the PHP was on a Windows web server
(who would run PHP on a Linux web server to then use the inferior mssql
database?)

[PHP] send emails in php not working
We recently moved to a new server. Our code that would send out emails is no
longer sending emails.
There are no messages in the httpd logs associated with running the email.php
files.
The email scripts worked on the old server. Is there a special setting in
php.ini for sending emails in php or is there a packages that needs to be
installed on the new server. Below is some sample code that worked on the old
server
Receive the email request:
1 html
2 body
3
4 form action=emailFormProcess.php method=post
5 Your Name: input type=text name=namebr
6 E-mail: input type=text name = emailbrbr
7 Commentsbr
8 textarea name=comments/textareabrbr
9 input type=submit value=Submit
10 /form
11
12 /body
13 /html
Process the email request:
1 html
2 body
3
4 ?
5 function checkOK($field)
6 {
7 if (eregi(\r,$field) || eregi(\n,$field)){
8 die(Invalid Input!);
9 }
10 }
11
12 $name=$_POST['name'];
13 checkOK($name);
14 $email=$_POST['email'];
15 checkOK($email);
16 $comments=$_POST['comments'];
17 checkOK($comments);
18 $to=[EMAIL PROTECTED],$email;
19 $message=$name just filled in your comments form. They
said:\n$comments\n\nTheir e-mail address iss: $email;
20 if(mail($to,Comments From Your Site,$message,From: $email\n)) {
21 echo Thanks for your comments.;
22 } else {
23 echo There was a problem sending the mail. Please check that you filled in
the form correctly.;

Re: [PHP] Launching multiple PHP threads via Scheduled Tasks
On Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 11:44:50AM -0700, Brian Dunning wrote: I've got a script that downloads files queued from a server, and it's launched by a Windows Scheduled Task that launches every minute. My understanding of the default behavior is that if the task is still running a minute later when it's time to launch again, a duplicate thread will not be launched. The remote server administrator wants me to launch multiple threads all day - in my mind the wrong choice, since multiple download threads slow everyone one, but that's what he wants. Anyone know if there's a way to make Windows Scheduled Task launch a new thread of the PHP script, regardless of whether it's already running? Your assumption is semi-correct, mostly because of your choice of language. If you would have asked about launvhing another download process, then you would be wrong. A new _process_ *is* spawned by the Windows Scheduled Task launcher. Here's a proof. test.bat start c:\php\php.exe test.php start c:\php\php.exe test.php test.php: ?php sleep(20) print slept 20 seconds; ? Double click on test.bat, you should see 'slept 20 seconds' printed twice. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] clean data
I have a project now where we would like to properly remove unwanted data before it goes into the db such as ` and of course slashes. The problem is I have tons of pages. Is there an easy way to add in a clean up routine on the db side to clean it going in and coming out without having to touch each page that inserts it into the db and each page that presents it? I'm using a MySQL db. Thanks!
