[PHP-DB] searching for zipcode: where to start?

2001-11-10 Thread dean james

hello,

I want to create a database search with php/mysql that searches for zipcodes 
in a database. of course, there will be other columns/tables and such to be 
printed, but I only want to search for the zipcodes and have the other cells 
printed if the following criteria are found:
lets say I search for the zipcode 90232...it would return like so

1. search returns 3 closest matches
John Doe
90232
Red Corvette

Mary Jones
90235
Silver Camaro

Peter Gooding
90065
Blue Honda

et - the search will generate only 3 returns...either 3 exact  
matches, in this case 90232 or (1, or 2) and the closestBasically the 
search will ALWAYS return 3 results, either exact matches or closest 
matches..any combination..so every entry in the database is a potential 
match...just the 3 closest

what is the best way to go about doing this?

[PHP-DB] Pulling Zip Codes from USPS

2001-11-10 Thread olinux

I had a tutorial bookmarked at one point on how to
pull zip codes from the USPS search or something like
this. There are a couple benefits  to this - 1. it's
always up to date 2. it's complete and 3. it's free.

I would like to use something like this now. Does
anyone have a link to tutorial or know of a resource
like this?

thanks

[PHP-DB] Random Row From Database

2001-11-10 Thread HEW Staff

Hi,

I'm trying to pull a random row from my database and display the contents.

I know that the code:
SELECT * FROM TABLENAME WHERE RAND() LIMIT 1
should work.

However, there are 19 rows in the database and only the first row ever shows
up.

Is there a way to do this to ensure uniqueness?

The code I am using at the moment also filters so that rows are pulled from
the database given certain other criteria such as:

SELECT * FROM TABLENAME WHERE PayerID=$id AND RAND() LIMIT 1

All of the rows in the database contain the same PayerID and this column is
not the Primary Key.

Any help much appreciated.

Re: [PHP-DB] XML coming out from MySQL

2001-11-10 Thread Tomas Garcia Ferrari

 I've never parsed XML with PHP, but it might help if you can show the
 document that's breaking the parser, and also let us know if other
 documents are working fine...
 
 -Lorenzo

Hi,

The document is like this:

?xml version=1.0 encoding=iso-8859-1?
articulo
volantaSome text/volanta
tituloSome text/titulo
bajadaSome text/bajada
parrafoSome text/parrafo
urlhttp://whatever.com//url
copyWhomever 2001/copy
/articulo

Up to now, I solve the problem modifying the lines saying
 while ($data = $file) {
 if (!xml_parse($xml_parser, $data, 0)) {
 die(sprintf(XML error: %s at line %d,
 xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xml_parser)),
 xml_get_current_line_number($xml_parser)));
 }
 }

into
 xml_parse($xml_parser, $data, 0);

I'd noticed that I don't need to read the document line by line.

Regards and thanks,
Tomás

 There isn't the field table_name.ID_city!!!

 Here's the question: I need also this field ID_city
 because there's a function that builds a list box with
 all the cities, and search for a html hidden input
 named ID_city (like the table field) to eventually
 highlight that entry.

 can someone help me?
 is there a way to select also the ID_city field
 without break the join mechanism ?

[PHP-DB] PHP 4.0.6 InterBase Bug

2001-11-10 Thread Jorge Alvarez

PHP 4.0.6 reports warning about invalid statement handle after I
use ibase_close() to close opened with ibase_connect()
database connection. If I comment ibase_close that removes
the warning.

Please don't forget to fix this in the next PHP release.

In the mean time I went back to PHP 4.0.5, which works just fine.

Dag Jelle,
Als je printf(); gebruikt moet je dit wel correct doen, met print(); zou 
het goed moeten gaan.

Dus regel 24 wordt:   print ($resultaat[0]);

=an error message that quotes a line number AFTER the end of the script indicates that 
some entity has been
opened but not closed. In this case curly brackets.

=Various source code formatting conventions exist to try to avoid the situation (that 
we have here) where the
appearance of the source code works to deceive brain and eye. There has been some 
debate in PHP forums about the
'best' way (FWIW my opinion: whatever works=best), and this is an excellent 
illustration of why coding the
opening bracket of a code block this way, may not be best way! The code-block 
indentation is not consistent
which further disguises the omission.

[PHP-DB] trouble with simple logfile-script

2001-11-10 Thread Torsten Reimer

Hi all,

I use a small php-script for generating some simple weekly weblog for a
site with about 3.000 vists / day. I do not want to log IP or dates, I
just want to count pageimpressions for all the html/php-files
seperately. A friend helped me with the script, but although it does
exactly what I want, we have some trouble with it:

For every page we have an entry in the sql-database with fields for page
(seite) / week (kw) / number of hits (anzahl). Sometimes the script
inserts a new entry, so that there are two, three or even twenty entries
for the same page in the same week. As you will see the code checks if
there is already an entry for the actual file / actual week, and if so
it should just counts hits. Sometimes (on the average two times a day)
the script generates a new entry and then logs in both, the original
entry and the new, false one. Two days ago it started creating so many
new entries that my isp had to block the database because it consumed to
much server-ressources...

Any help would be very appreciated.
Torsten


  setlocale(LC_TIME,de);
 $kw=strftime(%W);
 if(!isset($id))
  $id = NN;
 $logdata=$bloede-select(select * from bloede_log where kw = $kw AND
seite ='$id');
 if(sizeof($logdata) == 0)
  $bloede-insert(insert into bloede_log (kw, seite, anzahl) values
