RE: [PHP-DB] % operator
Well, it looks like your previous response was correct, but $a%$b in this case returns 4, not the 0.8 as intended ... fmod($a, $b) (I have php 4.1.2, so I can't test fmod()) will probably return 0.8 though.

Re: [PHP-DB] Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded
Duhhh. me mike. me like cumputors.
This is where the honest geek admits his mistakes.
I had a do while loop such as
do {
mysql_query ($qupdate, $link);
$rslterror=mysql_error($link);
$number++
} while ($rslterror!=null);
I was trying to insert a new record with $number being a field requiring a
uniqe number. If it failed, it should up the number by one and try again. I
still don't have that working properly, but that wasn't my endless loop
problem.
You may have notice that I used a query ($qupdate) above. I defined
$qinsert earlier on in my script and should of used it instead of $qupdate.
$qupdate was undefined and therefore caused an edless loop.
Anyway, I fixed my dumb mistake. If anyone would like to help me with a
better one, maybe you can tell me if I am doing my do while correctly. It's
only running through once, not getting a succesful insert and dropping out.

The simplest thing to do is do a header('Location:

perhaps you should do a select to see if the value is already in the db,

RE: [PHP-DB] Don't know why query works this way
Here's some functions I use in my development which save on connect and
query calls for me.
//General Purpose Utilities.
//db_connect connects to the database server and selects the proper
database.
//Arguments: None
//Returns: Nothing
function db_connect() {
mysql_pconnect(localhost,username,password);
mysql_select_db(Database);
}
//db_query queries the database server and returns the results.
//Arguments: SQL query string
//Returns: Query results
function db_query($query) {
return mysql_query($query);
}
//db_fetch returns the next set of results from a db_query.
//Arguments: db_query results variable
//Returns: Next set of query results as an array or 0 if no further
results are present
function db_fetch($results) {
return mysql_fetch_array($results);
}
//db_numrows returns the number of rows selected from a query.
//Arguments: query result
//Returns: number of rows in the query result
function db_numrows($result) {
return mysql_num_rows($result);
}
//Always connect to the database!
db_connect();
Keep these in an include file. The db_connect(); goes at the bottom and
keep the connection open during the routines.
To call db_query you would use it like:
$someQuery = db_query(SELECT * from someTable );
to get the results out of the query you would call db_fetch and use it
like:
$someResult = db_fetch($someQuery);
If you needed to return an array you would use it with a while or for
statement like:
While ($someResult = db_fetch($someQuery)) {
}
If you needed to get the number of rows from the query you'd use like:
numRows = db_numrows($someQuery);
or
if (db_numrows($someQuery) ...)
These are just some thing I use to make my life easier.
Hope it helps

Until you call that function again with another db name, mysql with

$query = insert into $table ('joe', 15);
if ( mysql_db_query($dbname, $query, $link)) { }

mysql_db_query.
But I was having a problem with where do i put the $dbname.
When I used:
mysql_query ($dbname, $query, $link)
I got an error message saying i had too many arguments. So I changed it
to:
mysql_query ($query, $link)
I then got an error message saying it didn't know what database I was
connected to. I finally got around the problem by including the

name in the query, like so:
$query = insert into $dbname.$table ('joe', 15);
I shouldn't have to say, but this is a simplified example. I didn't
want
to
include all the fields, tables, values that the true example has. The
question is, am I doing this right? Do I have no choice but to retype
the
$dbname all over the place if I want to use mysql_query?

I am 25 years old and a graduate of Mass Communication. My father was the king of Ogoni Kingdom the highest oil producing area in Nigeria. He was in charge of reviving royalties from the multi-national oil companies and government on behalf of the oil producing communities in Nigeria. After the hanging of the Ogoni Nine(9) including Ken Saro Wiwa by the late dictator General Sani Abacha, my father suffered stroke and died in August27th last year. But before his death, he called me and told me he has Nine Million Five Houndread Thousand Dollars (USD9,500,000.00) cash in his possession, specially deposited in a Security vault company here. He advised me not to tell anybody except my mother who is the last wife of the (8) eight wives that he married. My mother did not bear any male child for him. Which implies that all my father's properties, companies e.t.c., we have no share in them because my mother has no male child according to African Tradition. My father therefore secretly gave me all the relevant documents of the said money, and told me that I should use this money with my mother and my younger sisters because he knows that tradtionally, if he dies we cannnot get anything, as inheritance. He importantly advised me that I should seek foreign assistannce and that I should not invest this money here in Nigeria because of his other wives and male children who happen to be my elders. I am soliciting for your immediate assistance to get a Bungalow for us, where I will live with my mother and two younger sisters and further advise me where and how I will invest the balance money overseas, possibly on products of your company and other profitable ventures. I believe that by the special grace of God, you will help us move this money out of Nigeria to any country of your choice where we can invest this money judiciously with you. You are entitled to a reasonable part of this money based on our agreement, and God will bless you as you help us. PLease i needed you to kindly send me your contact informations[your office phone and fax number including your cell phone where i can reach you at all time for further concrete dicussions regards to further development of this transaction.

Re: [PHP-DB] Left Join with more than two tables......
The left join works the same for two or more tables. select * from table1 left join table2 on table1.id=table2.id left join table3 on table1.id=table3.id ...

Re: [PHP-DB] Help with formating text from PHP
Well, as one of the last posts said, if you are displaying in a web browser, via HTML, you need to insert br tags where you want the text to go to the next line. HTML doesn't respond to /r/n pairs. So if that is how the user types them in (with a enter key at the end of lines) you need to replace with br's if there are no EOL's in the original text you need to decide on some arbitrary length and insert br at that point.

[PHP-DB] Help needed with variable scoping? or mysql problem
I've been using JSP for some time now, and thought I'd write a couple of
rdbms explorers (flat tables, simple master/detail paradigm) using other
technologies, like PHP, Cocoon, etc. Well...it's been fun. I have more
working than not. But now I am hung up. I am getting wierd results in a php
script when I simply change the order of some mysql calls.
I'm using php-4.3.2, rh9, and mysql 3.23.
My error is the following (the first line above the Warning below is a dump
of parameters to the showMaster function which is what's bombing):
conn=Resource id #3 databaseName=info tableName=movies fieldName=title
fieldValue=36th Chamber
Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource in /foo/bar/mywebsite/private/database.php on line 107
Line 107 is the first mysql_num_rows call below.
function showMaster($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue)
{
echo conn=$conn\n;
echo databaseName=$databaseName\n;
echo tableName=$tableName\n;
echo fieldName=$fieldName\n;
echo fieldValue=$fieldValue\n;
This code fails when placed here==
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM $tableName where
$fieldName='$fieldValue', $conn);
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($result);
if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 1)
{
showDetail($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue, $result);
exit;
}
echo numRows=$numRows\n;
$fields = mysql_list_fields($databaseName, $tableName, $conn);
$numFields = mysql_num_fields($fields);
echo TABLE border=1 width=100%\n;
echo tr;
for($i = 0; $i $numFields; $i++)
{
printf(td%s/td, mysql_field_name($fields, $i));
}
echo /tr;
The SAME code succeeds when placed here!==
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM $tableName where
$fieldName='$fieldValue', $conn);
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($result);
if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 1)
{
showDetail($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue, $result);
exit;
}
echo numRows=$numRows\n;
while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result))
...rest of method...
}
Any ideas on why this is? When I move the lines above (from
$result=...to...echo 'numRows') down a few lines to just before the
mysql_fetch_array, then everything works. Whazzup?!?

Re: [PHP-DB] Help with formating text from PHP
You guys thanks for the encouragement.
I finally solved it with this:

$rsDailynewsDetail-Fields('newsfull')); echo $text; ?
Help came of course from the link Holmes gave.

for ($i=0;$threadResult = db_fetch($threadQuery);$i++) {

0 is equal to $i.. in other words - it is not incrementing.

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP MSSQL
Shaun, the MySQL manual suggests that you have hit your limit using the VARCHAR field type (255 characters). To store 6,000 characters have you not considered using the TEXT field type? 6.2.3.1 The CHAR and VARCHAR Types The CHAR and VARCHAR types are similar, but differ in the way they are stored and retrieved. The length of a CHAR column is fixed to the length that you declare when you create the table. The length can be any value between 1 and 255. (As of MySQL Version 3.23, the length of CHAR may be 0 to 255.) When CHAR values are stored, they are right-padded with spaces to the specified length. When CHAR values are retrieved, trailing spaces are removed. Values in VARCHAR columns are variable-length strings. You can declare a VARCHAR column to be any length between 1 and 255, just as for CHAR columns. However, in contrast to CHAR, VARCHAR values are stored using only as many characters as are needed, plus one byte to record the length. Values are not padded; instead, trailing spaces are removed when values are stored. (This space removal differs from the SQL-99 specification.) No case conversion takes place during storage or retrieval. If you assign a value to a CHAR or VARCHAR column that exceeds the column's maximum length, the value is truncated to fit. - Original Message - From: Shaun Bentley [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 11:23 AM Subject: [PHP-DB] PHP MSSQL Hi I am currently trying to use PHP and MSSQL together but I am having a few problems.

HI
I'm having a problem using some php
functions in LINUX machines. I'm trying the "header" function to
redirect my visitiors to a specific page i want to generate the
pages dynamically , using arguments (For ex. redir.php?img=1.jpg). It
is working fine in Windows machine , but not in LINUX/UNIX .It is
giving me error that headers are already sent .I don't know why it is
happening. I tried many things like (1) I checked the configuration
file (Php.ini) . some of the configurations r like that
:***
arg_separator.input =
""arg_separator.output =
""output_buffering =
off(2)
i tried changing the code . As i was found that the argument isn't coming
from the previous page.The code i used there is
:
*** redir.php
*global
$link;if($link=="")die("error");
header("Location:
$link");
**
now if a link is like that :
redir.php?link=http://www.yahoo.com , then it should redirect the
visitor to the YAHOO! , but it is working in Windows not in
LINUX. In Windows , i saw this problem when the output_buffering is
set to off. So i turned it on , it is working fine in windows,
but in LINUX , the same problem persists. Using "ob_start() "
function , i tuned this function on (manually).I don't know how to
solve this problem.
I'm also unable to use MYSQL database
in LINUX . It is saying that the built in PHP functions for mysql
(like mysql_connect() etc.) are unknown functions. Can anybody please help
me ?

Re: [PHP-DB] Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded
This worked great. I am keeping a table of available PINs for each of my
groups of students. I rewrote the code to get a random number from the
table and if if it updates the student successfully, it deletes the number
from the availables table.
Thanks a lot!

Why is it important that you recycle old PINs? This is most likely eating
up the most time in your script execution.
My suggestion would be to either
A) just keep creating a new one and ignore ones when a child leaves or
B) create a 2nd, much smaller table available_pins and when a child
leaves, insert their former PIN into this table. Then upon executing the
new student script, you check the available_pin table for rows 0. If so,
use the first one. If not, give them a new one.
Good luck.

I do have an auto_increment for the record id. But that is just a way for
me
to uniquely id the record. Student numbers, barcodes, etc can change.
The reason I am using the do/while loop is: Every student is getting a
4digit pin for library, cafeteria and network access. It has to be unique
and we have been assigning a different range of numbers per building/grade.
There are various procedural reasons for this. I have verified that I am
identifying the new student correctly and going into the do/while loop with
a
variable that holds the correct starting number for the appropriate pin
range. It's then just a matter of trying consecutive numbers till I find
an
available pin. The pin may be available because a student left the school
or
because it's next available at the end of the line.
Anyway, I was not aware I could pick and choose my ranges in an
AUTO_INCREMENT
field.
I appreciate any thoughts you may have. Thanks.

[PHP-DB] Re: newbie lost on data import... part 3
OK, now I am really sure it has to do with the vars I defined from my text
file...
Once I have the text file open, I'm looping through it...
// pull RETURN off the end
$trimmed = rtrim($lines[$x]);
// Pull apart array element
list($strDate,$strNum,$strName) = explode (\t, $trimmed);
// Make the Dte a mySQL Date Object
$objDate = new Date($strDate);
// Spit it out to double check what I've got
echo '' . $strDate . ' - ' . $strNum . ' - ' . $strName . ' p /';
// populate the array
$aryFieldsValues = array( 'eps_id' = $x,
'eps_name' = $strName,
'eps_num' = $strNum,
'eps_air_date' = $strDate);
// do the query
$objResult = $db-autoExecute('cbs_eps', $aryFieldsValues,
DB_AUTOQUERY_INSERT);
This will insert NOTHING but the 'eps_id' which comes from the loop index.
Now, I added this before the array population...
$strDate = '2002-01-09';
$strNum = '102';
$strName = 'myName';
THIS WORKED!
This data was INSERTed into the database!
OK, riddle me this Batman!

Re: [PHP-DB] Database Design Issue
Yes, songs do span shows. However, the list of songs for each weeks show starts out as a *.asc (same a *.txt) space-separated file. This gets uploaded via a PHP file that formats each row and inserts it into the database. That's why even though I know there will be duplication it appears (to me at least) I'll just have to live with it. I have no guarentee that the songs will appear in the *exact same way* every time either (you really don't want to know why -- I'm getting a migrain just thinking about it). I've attached an example of the incoming files I have to deal with for your reference. Also, I'm just designing the website I will have no part in the everyday maintenance of the website -- except when the maintainer gets stuck. :) Jason CPT John W. Holmes wrote: From: "Jason Lange" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Here's my question. I'm creating a website for a weekly radio show. One of the items I would like to store in the database is the list of songs played in each show (there's normally between 20-25 songs per show), and the songs will be displayed by show. Should I put all of the songs in a single table with a field denoting what show they're from, or should I create a separate table for each weeks show and just request that entire table? I'm looking at this from both a long-term performance and *maintenance* issue. The first question is if songs can span multiple shows? If so, you need 3 tables. One to hold the songs, each song getting a unique id. One table to hold the shows, each show getting a unique id, and finally a third table that relates the two. You'd list the song_id and the show_id that it's used in. Add in a row for each song used in each show. If a song is not shared across shows, then you could go with two tables. A show table where each show gets a unique id and a song table with a column that has a show_id in it relating it to what show it's used in. You'd be better off with the first method, though, because sooner or later down the line there's going to be a song shared, I imagine. :) ---John Holmes... FOREVER WE WILL SING MICHAEL W.

In article [EMAIL PROTECTED],

I have been writing my queries like this...
$link = mysql_connect ($host, $username, $password);
$query = insert into $table ('joe', 15);
if ( mysql_db_query($dbname, $query, $link)) { }
But then I was reading that I should use mysl_query instead of mysql_db_query.
But I was having a problem with where do i put the $dbname.
When I used:
mysql_query ($dbname, $query, $link)
I got an error message saying i had too many arguments. So I changed it to:
mysql_query ($query, $link)
I then got an error message saying it didn't know what database I was
connected to. I finally got around the problem by including the database
name in the query, like so:
$query = insert into $dbname.$table ('joe', 15);
I shouldn't have to say, but this is a simplified example. I didn't want to
include all the fields, tables, values that the true example has. The
question is, am I doing this right? Do I have no choice but to retype the
$dbname all over the place if I want to use mysql_query?
Thank in advance for any help.
Well, no. You need to do mysql_select_db to select a database up front and
if you happen to need to change databases, use it again. So something like
$dbname = 'whatever';
$link = mysql_connect ($host, $username, $password);
mysql_select_db($dbname);
$query = insert into $table ('joe', 15);
if ( mysql_db_query($dbname, $query, $link)){ }

Re: [PHP-DB] Database Design Issue
From: Jason Lange [EMAIL PROTECTED] Here's my question. I'm creating a website for a weekly radio show. One of the items I would like to store in the database is the list of songs played in each show (there's normally between 20-25 songs per show), and the songs will be displayed by show. Should I put all of the songs in a single table with a field denoting what show they're from, or should I create a separate table for each weeks show and just request that entire table? I'm looking at this from both a long-term performance and *maintenance* issue. The first question is if songs can span multiple shows? If so, you need 3 tables. One to hold the songs, each song getting a unique id. One table to hold the shows, each show getting a unique id, and finally a third table that relates the two. You'd list the song_id and the show_id that it's used in. Add in a row for each song used in each show. If a song is not shared across shows, then you could go with two tables. A show table where each show gets a unique id and a song table with a column that has a show_id in it relating it to what show it's used in. You'd be better off with the first method, though, because sooner or later down the line there's going to be a song shared, I imagine. :) ---John Holmes... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] Help with formating text from PHP
Yes. Itis with enter key. It will not be possible to pre-determine the length as this field is supposed to be a news field. I'm lost as to how to go about this as the enter key does not generate chr(13) when saving. I'm really lost. Holmes directed me to http://us2.php.net/nl2br. I'm currently going thru it.

HTML doesn't respond to /r/n pairs. So if that is how the user types them in (with a enter key at the end of lines) you need to replace with br's if there are no EOL's in the original text you need to decide on some arbitrary length and insert br at that point.

[PHP-DB] Extracting result - unknown number of fields
While doing a cross tabulation, I've got a query which gives me a variable
number of fields:
$query=SELECT Dept;
$count=count($piv_cos);
for($x=0;$x$count;$x++){
$query.=, SUM(IF(Co='$piv_cos[$x]',Exps175,0)) AS '$piv_cos[$x]';
}
$query.= FROM $tbl1 GROUP BY Dept;
$result=mysql_db_query($db, $query, $connection) or die (Query9
failed: $query);
...but how do I extract?
$piv_depts=array();
for($x=0;$x$count;$x++){${piv_.$x}=array();}
$piv_dept1=array();
$x=0;
while(list($a,$b)= mysql_fetch_array($result)) //I DON'T KNOW HOW
MANY TO list()
{
$piv_cos[$x]=$a;
for($y=0;$y$count;$y++){${piv_.$y}[$x]=$b;}
//...
//...
//$piv_dept1[$x]=$b;
$x++;
}
Is there an alternative approach?

[PHP-DB] Don't know why query works this way
I have been writing my queries like this...
$link = mysql_connect ($host, $username, $password);
$query = insert into $table ('joe', 15);
if ( mysql_db_query($dbname, $query, $link)){ }
But then I was reading that I should use mysl_query instead of mysql_db_query.
But I was having a problem with where do i put the $dbname.
When I used:
mysql_query ($dbname, $query, $link)
I got an error message saying i had too many arguments. So I changed it to:
mysql_query ($query, $link)
I then got an error message saying it didn't know what database I was
connected to. I finally got around the problem by including the database
name in the query, like so:
$query = insert into $dbname.$table ('joe', 15);
I shouldn't have to say, but this is a simplified example. I didn't want to
include all the fields, tables, values that the true example has. The
question is, am I doing this right? Do I have no choice but to retype the
$dbname all over the place if I want to use mysql_query?
Thank in advance for any help.

Re: [PHP-DB] Pulling an ID list from a DB, then filtering thatlist againstanother list of ID's
Here is what I have for a layout: thing_id - it is a hash value (md5()) I have a user session variable that is an array thing_id's that were viewed. So each time the user click a like to view a thing_id, I note that in a session variable, so when they go back to the home page, all the things they have viewed are not shown, only the ones they have not viewed. Thing_id - 1 | hash_id_1 2 | hash_id_2 3 | hash_id_3 4 | hash_id_4 Viewed (Session Var) 1 | hash_id_2 2 | hash_id_4 So when the user hits the homepage, they should get a list of 2 hash ID's hash_id_1 and hash_id_3. That is how I want this to work, I just need a slick way to compare and filter the viewed hash_id's from the complete list I am pulling form the DB. Does that help?

RE: [PHP-DB] MySQL Returns Error
So create a hidden input field on the page called cur_id and set its value
to the id of the record being displayed. If no record is currently being
displayed, set it to -1.
When you get ready to handle the form data, check the $_POST['cur_id']
variable. If it's set to -1, perform an INSERT. If it's set to anything
else, perform an UPDATE using the value of $_POST['cur_id'] in your WHERE
clause.
I'm sure there are other ways to handle this. This is how I have handled it
in the past though.

[PHP-DB] Database Design Issue
Hello Everyone, Here's my question. I'm creating a website for a weekly radio show. One of the items I would like to store in the database is the list of songs played in each show (there's normally between 20-25 songs per show), and the songs will be displayed by show. Should I put all of the songs in a single table with a field denoting what show they're from, or should I create a separate table for each weeks show and just request that entire table? I'm looking at this from both a long-term performance and *maintenance* issue. TIA, Jason -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP-DB] DB2 and php serialized data
Gerard Samuel wrote: Most likely its not a PHP issue, but looking to see if anyone has run into this. I've inserted a serialized string, into a CLOB column. Trying to retrieve the column returns no results. If anyone has any DB2 experience, I'd be grateful if I can bounce a few questions to you offlist. Thanks for any advice/tips you may provide... I did a few more tests last night, and the problem isn't with serialized data. Im currently testing to see if a result contains returned data by issuing odbc_num_rows() The wierd thing is that if I try to select a CLOB column (this is what Im using at the moment, but I believe it applies to all LOBs), odbc_num_rows() would return -1 If I do not select a CLOB (ie INTEGER, VARCHAR this is what Im currently testing with) column, odbc_num_rows() would return the correct number of rows. I've read about odbc_num_rows() returning -1 for some databases, but that statement alludes me to believe that it either works, or doesn't work for a database. Not whether it will work for some sql conditions. So Im not sure if this is a bug or not. Im currently testing with PHP 4.3.3R2, IBM DB2 8.1 Personal Edition on win2k/IIS 5 If what Ive noticed is the expected behaviour, please let me know so I'll know whether or not to fill out a bug report...

Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Returns Error
if i understand your question. why not take a different approach. when the
form is submitted do your updates/inserts and then forward the page with
the header() function to another page, even if it is the same page, but
with a different set of variables set on the page, the idea being to remove
the $_POST/$_GET arrays containing your data
so at the end of your insert
header(Location: .$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].?inserted=true);
you can send them from whence they came with
header(Location: .$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);

I'm unsure of both suggestions, can someone go into more detail?
Richard Hutchins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
So create a hidden input field on the page called cur_id and set its
value
to the id of the record being displayed. If no record is currently being
displayed, set it to -1.
When you get ready to handle the form data, check the $_POST['cur_id']
variable. If it's set to -1, perform an INSERT. If it's set to anything
else, perform an UPDATE using the value of $_POST['cur_id'] in your WHERE
clause.
I'm sure there are other ways to handle this. This is how I have handled
it
in the past though.

Oops, my mistake, it's not a blank entry - it re enters the

I can hit F5 or click refresh 1000 times and it will enter

Every time I access or refresh the page, it adds one blank
entry to the DB.
Maybe I have the insert query in the wrong place?
if ('POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']) {
//someone submitted the form with method=post
// so validate input, and if okay store it in db

Re: [PHP-DB] Help needed with variable scoping? or mysql problem
best way to tell is to place .'or die(mysql_error())' after any call to
mysql_query() to see what mysql is complaining about. personally I
sometimes declare the query first so i can echo that as well after the
msyql_error() function, so i can see the query that has just been
excecuted. helpful with dynamic queries.
$qry = SELECT * FROM $tableName where $fieldName='$fieldValue';
$result = mysql_query($qry, $conn) or die(mysql_error() . $qry);

I've been using JSP for some time now, and thought I'd write a couple of
rdbms explorers (flat tables, simple master/detail paradigm) using other
technologies, like PHP, Cocoon, etc. Well...it's been fun. I have more
working than not. But now I am hung up. I am getting wierd results in a php
script when I simply change the order of some mysql calls.
I'm using php-4.3.2, rh9, and mysql 3.23.
My error is the following (the first line above the Warning below is a dump
of parameters to the showMaster function which is what's bombing):
conn=Resource id #3 databaseName=info tableName=movies fieldName=title
fieldValue=36th Chamber
Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource in /foo/bar/mywebsite/private/database.php on line 107
Line 107 is the first mysql_num_rows call below.
function showMaster($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue)
{
echo conn=$conn\n;
echo databaseName=$databaseName\n;
echo tableName=$tableName\n;
echo fieldName=$fieldName\n;
echo fieldValue=$fieldValue\n;
This code fails when placed here==
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM $tableName where
$fieldName='$fieldValue', $conn);
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($result);
if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 1)
{
showDetail($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue, $result);
exit;
}
echo numRows=$numRows\n;
$fields = mysql_list_fields($databaseName, $tableName, $conn);
$numFields = mysql_num_fields($fields);
echo TABLE border=1 width=100%\n;
echo tr;
for($i = 0; $i $numFields; $i++)
{
printf(td%s/td, mysql_field_name($fields, $i));
}
echo /tr;
The SAME code succeeds when placed here!==
$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM $tableName where
$fieldName='$fieldValue', $conn);
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($result);
if(mysql_num_rows($result) == 1)
{
showDetail($conn, $databaseName, $tableName, $fieldName,
$fieldValue, $result);
exit;
}
echo numRows=$numRows\n;
while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result))
...rest of method...
}
Any ideas on why this is? When I move the lines above (from
$result=...to...echo 'numRows') down a few lines to just before the
mysql_fetch_array, then everything works. Whazzup?!?
