Re: AW: [PHP-DB] image resizing
Imagemagick is THE preferred sollution, since downsizing images makes them blurry. With imagemagick you can sharpen then afterwards, and they are brand new shiny funky thumbs! There is a tutorial on phpbuilder.com which describes and shows a live example on how to incorporate the ImageMagick power into your scripts. You do however need to install the ImageMagick module on the server (windows is easy, hust depack the files and point to migrify.exe, no need to install it its just a bunch of DLLs). If your hosting provider doesnt want to install ImageMagick, you have to use GD. Nice class for GD just released on phpclasses.org by the way. You need however to reprogram some og the scaling functions, as they are a bit unfinnished. I use GD as a backup, in case ImageMagick isnt present on the server. But then I get those blurry ones I dont like... -- Kim Steinhaug --- There are 10 types of people when it comes to binary numbers: those who understand them, and those who don't. --- Christopher Ostmo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Stefan Siefert pressed the little lettered thingies in this order...

[PHP-DB] Re: Validating a Session value
First you need to alter you else if statements, you write :
If $session_ValueA $100 and $499 set $session_fee=$20
I would write :
if(($session_ValueA =100) and ($session_ValueA =499)){
$session_fee=20;
}
And as you see, you cant evaluate $20 since PHP doesnt know
that $20 is 20 dollars. It assumes its a variable with name of 20.
The $ (dollarsign), in your case, is just for show. Same goes for the
fee. You will need to work with the numbers only, knowing their
currency, then when you print it out you can typically :
echo '$' . $session_fee;
Have another go!

Hi all,
I am trying to figure out a way to calculate a value based on another value
and then set that value in a session variable.
So, if $session_ValueA = $100 set $session_fee = $10
Or
If $session_ValueA $100 and $499 set $session_fee=$20
Or
If $session_VAlueA $499 and $999 set $session_fee=$50
Or something like this., I have to evaluate $session_ValueA to 6 possible
values.
Once this is done, I also would like to be able to calculate a % of
Session_ValueA
As commission. I tried to use If, Else but can't seem to get it right..
Any suggestions?? Thanks

$fp = fopen ($file_name, r);
while ($arr_row = fgetcsv ($fp, 4096, $d, )) {

To prevent this, arrange for the script send regularly some invisible
content to the browser

Then, I select the file through my web form, put in the delimiter which

about with just about 50 entries to test which worked) and then click
send,
but when I try to echo the result to debug, the array is totally empty,
and
even tells me it is empty, but only when the file is above a certain size
(Not worked out what size that is yet though).
The file itself is around 5.4 megs, and I know it's not a server timeout
issue as i've increased everything I could find in my local Apache config,
from a timeout of 300 to 3000 (Again, just to eliminate all possible
courses
that I can think of). The only thing I can think of is that there is some
illegal char somewhere in the file, but I have no idea what that could be.
I'm using the straight line up as the delimiter to avoid any , issues etc

It's just getting to me, there has to be a reason why :-( I'm using the

that
works fine with small files so would with large too):
if ($option == importcsv) {

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: send email
I am in the same boat, ( I posted a couple of days ago Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Send formmail data to Email and Database ), not knowing where to put the Mail() into my own code. I am working on it but no success yet. But, my real question in this topic; with formmail.pl using Sendmail your able to use recipients_alias = [EMAIL PROTECTED] inside of the FormMail.conf file. So this means you can hide the email address in the configuration file without it being seen in the page source.

I suspect you dont know how to set up the email routine since your asking. All you need to do is insert a sendmail script together with the update of the mySQL database. You could use PHPs internal functions for this, but Ill recommend you using PHPmailer which is heavily documentet with tons of examples on how to use.

Re: [PHP-DB] Array question
From: ShortStay [EMAIL PROTECTED] How do you delete a value and key from an array? I know the value. You need to know the key. unset($Array[$key]); There are various array functions that'll find the key for you if you know the value. Is it OK to post array questions to the db list?

RE: [PHP-DB] Re: send email
Hi my example earlier does not show the email address in the source of the displayed web page. It is in the source code, but you can change that to be put in a config file and include this file in the script.

[PHP-DB] MySql backup
Question - if I stop MySql using WinMySqladmin on NT4.0, will I be able to completely backup the data directory or do I need to do something else? This is a commercial application that I need to backup, so it's mighty darned important. Any help is appreciated.

[PHP-DB] LIKE % command
Hi there everyone, I'm doing a search in my DB using LIKE '%$word%' which works great, but it's not case sensitive, so if I search for bike it WON'T find BIKE, i'm using PHP and MySQL. Probably something very obvious LOL it's just a basic select using LIKE. Chris
[PHP-DB] Selecting date/time from an Access database
Hello all..
I've been tasked to retrieve info from an Access database and I've been
successful in selecting data and displaying it. But I do have a problem
with DATE/TIME data. When I run a query asking for TIME data, I get the
value -1 returned.
?
$conn = new COM(ADODB.Connection) or die(lala);
$dsn = DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=FILENAME.mdb;
$conn-Open($dsn);
$rset=new COM(ADODB.Recordset);
$rs=new COM(ADODB.Command);
$rs-Activeconnection=$conn;
$rs-CommandText=SELECT tblBooking.ReservationID, tblBooking.DateBooking,
tblRoom.Room, tblBooking.TimeeventStart, tblBooking.TimeBookingEnd
FROM tblRoom INNER JOIN tblBooking ON tblRoom.ID = tblBooking.RoomID ORDER
BY tblbooking.reservationid ASC;
$rset=$rs-Execute;
$e= $rset-Fields(4);
$d= $rset-Fields(3);
$c= $rset-Fields(2);
$b= $rset-Fields(1);
$a= $rset-Fields(0);
?
Results:
$a: 6391
$b: 954568800
$b(formatted from the timestamp above): 4/1/2000
$c: 2D (Minnesota)
$d: -1
$e: -1
$a is the reservation ID
$b is the timestamp
$c is the room name
$d is the start time
$e is the end time
As you can see, both $d and $e are not the correct values. I opened the
Access database and checked the data and it returned the correct
time. I've never had this kind of problems with MySQL, but I have to use
Access in this instance. Has anyone seen this before?
MORE INFO:
PHP Version 4.0.6
Access 97
Thanks,
metin
