Re: [PHP-DB] Failed to query correctly.
Hi,
I just looked over the code I sent and I saw that there is a bug there. Here's the
corrected version. This one is tested and it
works fine
$query=SELECT * from $tbl;
$result=mysql_db_query($db,$query) or mysql_die();
echo table;
while ($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
if (!$firstrow){
echo tr;
while(list($col_name, $col_value) = each($line)) {
print \t\ttdp align=center$col_name/p/td\n;
$firstrow.=\t\ttdp align=center$col_value/p/td\n;
}
echo /tr;
echo tr$firstrow/tr;
}
else{
echo tr;
while(list($col_name, $col_value) = each($line)) {
print \t\ttdp align=center$col_value/p/td\n;
}
echo /tr;
}
}
echo /table;

Hi, First you insert the record in the main table, then using the mysql_insert_id() finction (Check www.php.net/mysql_insert_id for details) you retrieve the new auto_increment value and then you insert the records in the related tables. your script should look something like this: ? $res=mysql_query(insert into main (id,field_one,...) values (null,'$field_one',...),$db); $id=mysql_insert_id(): mysql_query(insert into table_one (id_main,table_one_field_one,...) values ($id,$table_one_field_one,...),$db); mysql_query(insert into table_six (id_main,table_six_field_one,...) values ($id,$table_six_field_one,...),$db); ?

Re: [PHP-DB] What's wrong?
Hi,
the most probable reason is that the file you're reading from was saved in a
different filesystem and the $info[2] has some newline characters at the
end.
You can use the trim() function to remove it. Than your expression will look
something like this
if(count($info) != 1 $folder == trim($info[2]))

It IS possible to run the mail function on a Win machine - I had a

Also it is possible to have a Win-with-no-local-SMTP configuration. I have

I haven't tried to combine email with 'headers' though!

Re: [PHP-DB] eregi and ereg??
Hi, You cannot put multiple variables in ereg(). This is taken from http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ereg.php i think it will explain it better If matches are found for parenthesized substrings of pattern and the function is called with the third argument regs, the matches will be stored in the elements of the array regs. $regs[1] will contain the substring which starts at the first left parenthesis; $regs[2] will contain the substring starting at the second, and so on. $regs[0] will contain a copy of string. If ereg() finds any matches at all, $regs will be filled with exactly ten elements, even though more or fewer than ten parenthesized substrings may actually have matched. This has no effect on ereg()'s ability to match more substrings. If no matches are found, $regs will not be altered by ereg(). There are some code snippets that ilustrate the use of the $regs array.

Re: [PHP-DB] moving uploaded files
Hi, PHP has its own filesystem functions which you can use. If you want to move a file from one location to another you could use something like this ? copy($old_file,$new_file); unlink($old_file); ?

Re: [PHP-DB] array in db field - actual array
Hi,
I think you can use the eval() function to execute the stored info. The code
will look something like this
$res=mysql_query(...)
eval($row_from_query);
If you want to change the name of the array you could use
eval(str_replace($array,$newarray,$row_from_query));

Subject: [PHP-DB] array in db field - actual array
hi,
i am currently scouring the web for a solution to this but thought i
would try here as well ..
i have a text field in a mysql database
the textfield contains an array written out as
//
$array[0][1]=one;
$array[0][2]=two;
$array[0][3]=thre;
$array[1][1]=four;
$array[2][1]=five;
//
now i need to extract this from the db .. simple
and use it as an array for a function .. not as simple as i thought it
would be
ie
$newarray =mysqlquery('etc','etc','etc')
and $newarray should be
$newarray[0][1]=one;
$newarray[0][2]=two;
$newarray[0][3]=thre;
$newarray[1][1]=four;
$newarray[2][1]=five;
elp?
cheers

Re: [PHP-DB] Question on how to test a value
Hi,
even if there was no data in the price field when the form was submited the
$price variable exists and isset($price) returns true. May be you could try
!empty($price) instead of isset($price) - Something like.
$query7 = !empty($price) ? INSERT INTO price (itemid, price) VALUES
($itemid, '$price') : 0;
$result7 = @pg_Exec($connection, $query7 );
Then when the price field is empty your script will not insert anything into
the database.
You can also modify your select query not to show records without price
select * from price where itemid=50 and price is not Null and price;
Hope this will help

Subject: [PHP-DB] Question on how to test a value
Hi, friends,
Here is how I'm putting the information into the database:
$query7 = isset($price) ? INSERT INTO price (itemid, price) VALUES
($itemid, '$price') : 0;
$result7 = @pg_Exec($connection, $query7 );
I'm having difficulties with my test in display.
I've tried isset and == 'NULL' and == '0' as such:
if ($values2 == 'NULL')
{
print trtd class=\display\nbsp;/td/tr;
} else
{
print trtd class=\display\US$
$values2-price/td/tr/table/td;
}
and
if (isset($values2))
{
print trtd class=\display\US$
$values2-price/td/tr/table/td;
} else
{
print trtd class=\display\nbsp;/td/tr;
}
However, in both cases, if the price doesn't exist in the database, the US$
still shows up in the
display.
db= select * from price where itemid=50;
priceid | itemid | price
-++---
48 | 50 |
(1 row)
I was surprised that the insert put something into the database at all.
I could use some advice.
I cleaned up the database to remove all the lines where price wasn't set.
Why is it creating a table row? If the insert form is passing in where they
didn't set the price,
wouldn't that get picked up by the isset?
And if there isn't a row in the database, wouldn't testing isset of the
result of the query be
sufficient, or should I do a test on $values2-price instead?
I've tried lots of things and nothing seems to be doing the right behavior.
So thanks!

Hi, Name your form submit button somehow, for example input type=Submit name=my_submit_button value=Submit then when the page is refresh check if there is a variable named $my_submit_button. If there is not than the page is refreshed using the refresh button or the form was submitted with th Enter key.

Re: [PHP-DB] line breaks in mySQL text fields
Hi,
You could put \n where you want the new line.
Than if you want to output the text field in HTML you could use nl2br() to
replace the new line characters with br
For example take a look at this INSERT query:

Re: [PHP-DB] Protecting database password
Hi, I suggest you use a .php file to declare your database variables and include it everywhere you need it. Even if someone guesses the name of this file when he tries to open it, nothing will be outputed to the screen. an example file is ? $dbname=name; $dbuser=user; $dbpass=pass; ?

To be able to make the connection to the database, the class has to know the databasename, username, and password. At the moment, it is hardcoded in the include-file. This file can be downloaded by anyone who knows its exact name and location (which is not hard, of course). I want to prevent this. I have tried some things with permissions, but I could not find a solution there. A known solution on Windows-platforms is, to put the names password in the registry of the server, but I don't know how I can read data from the registry in PHP. Another solution is to use environment variables. I know how to read them: the documentation says that getenv() gives the environment of the client, but that is not true, at least on NT it gives the environment of the server. But then again: of which user is that environment and won't it be easy to read that environment over the internet? Can anyone give me advice on this?

Re: [PHP-DB] Paging help needed :-(
Hi,
First you'll have to modify your query to show only ten rows.
$sql = SELECT id, email, name, subject, url, image2, comments, dat
FROM users
ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $start,10;
The $start variable shows the number of the first row to show
The links for the previous and next page will be something like this
?
if ($start=10)echo a href='your_page.php3?.($start-10).'Previous/a;
echo a href='your_page.php3?.($start+10).'Next/a;
?
You can play around with this code to allow the users to go directly to a
specific page, not to show the Next link when there are no more records to
show, allow users to define how many records to show in a page and etc.

Re: [PHP-DB] Authomatic Sorting
When you delete a record it doesn't affect the other ones, so if you want to change the other ones you have to update them too.

Re: [PHP-DB] adding Carrol O'Conner in a form
Hi, The slash is added because you have magic_quotes_gpc() turned on in your php configuration file - when magic_quotes are on, all ' (single-quote), (double quote), \ (backslash) and NUL's are escaped with a backslash automatically. You can turn this configuration directive off or you can use stripslahes() to remove the slashes.

Re: [PHP-DB] define variable by querying MySQL
Hi,
I'm not sure what were you trying to do but there are some very obvious
errors
1. You cannot embed one php openning tag (?) in another
2. mysql_numrows() is not a valid mysql function - may be you were trying to
use mysql_num_rows()
If you are trying to put all fields my_name into the $WELCOME variable (I
can't think of a reason to do this) and then echo it may be you could use
this code
#start code
?
$link = mysql_connect(localhost,username,password) or die (Could not
connect to MySQL!);
mysql_select_db(database,$link);
$result = mysql_query(select * from table_name);
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$WELCOME.=$row[my_name];
}
echo $WELCOME;
?
#end code

Subject: [PHP-DB] define variable by querying MySQL
hello list. i have a problem that is relatively simple, but I can't seem to
figure it out.
is there any way to define a variable by querying a MySQL database?
here's an example of code I tried using:
?
$WELCOME =
echo ?php
$link = mysql_connect(localhost,username,password);
if(!$link) die (Could not connect to MySQL!);
mysql_select_db(database,$link);
$result = mysql_query(select * from table_name);
$num=mysql_numrows($result);
for($x=0;$x$num;$x++) {
$row=mysql_fetch_object($result);
print $row-my_name;
}
mysql_close($link);
?
;
;
?
? echo($WELCOME); ?
it kept coming up with the following :
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or
`T_NUM_STRING' in c:\apache group\apache\htdocs\page.php on line 5
i can't figure out what to do, so if anyone can assist me, i'd be greatful.
I have a feeling it's something with some quotes but i can't figure out
which ones.
Thanks a lot,
Matt Nigh

Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Error???
Hi, This error occurs when your auto_increment index field is of type TINYINT. This field type can accept values form -128 to 127 so you cannot add records with index value greater than 127. I recommend you change it to INT(11) UNSIGNED which can accept values from 0 to 4294967295. If you expect to have more records you may consider using BIGINT type For more info check the MySQL language reference.

Re: [PHP-DB] Modify Query, or sift through results?
Hi,
you could use the FIND_IN_SET(str,strlist) function which returns a value 1
to N if the string str is in the list strlist consisting of N substrings.
Returns 0 if str is not in strlist or if strlist is the empty string.
Returns NULL if either argument is NULL.
If you want to find all the records that have 'North' you query will look
something like this
SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE FIND_IN_SET('North',regions_field)0

Subject: [PHP-DB] Modify Query, or sift through results?
I've got a script that searches a db every night and sends out e-mail if
it finds something a person would be interested in, based on criteria
they gave us. The problem is that I have one field that stores regions
of the country in a very unpleasant way. It stores them as:
Northeast;West;South
So all of the regions for one record go into one field. The problem is
that when searching that, if someone has a preference of 'North', I
dont want to pull records that have 'Northeast', as would happen with
the above example. Is there a way to modify the MySQL query so as to
find only 'North', keeping in mind that 'North' may be the 3rd in a list
of semi-colon separated regions? Or do I need to sift through the
results in PHP to clean them up? Thanks,
Joe

Subject: [PHP-DB] php/mysql horizontal listing query
hello knowledgeable people of the php-db list, i have a question for you
regarding PHP using MySQL.
my problem is this:
I need a section of a record label site with a releases section listed
horizontally but here's the twist: after every 4 releases, I want the
releases to move to the next columns below.
ex.
release#1, release#2, release#3, release#4
release#5, release#6
each release is stored in a database called almavale_releases and there are
6 rows:
id, bandname, albumtitle, coverpic, albumcode, datereleased
so what i need to know is what php code do I need to accomplish this?
your help is greatly appreciated and give my thanks in advance. email me
offlist with your solutions/suggestions or send it to the list.
it's great to see the php/db experts sharing their knowledge with the
not-so-experts like myself on this list, I learn new stuff all the time on
this great list!

Re: [PHP-DB] raw file header in http
Hi, I think you could use something like this $file_name=/tmp/your_file_name; Header ( Content-Type: application/octet-stream); Header ( Content-Length: .filesize($file_name)); Header( Content-Disposition: inline; filename=$file_name); readfile($file_name); If you want instead of using application/octet-stream you can can use the MIME type of the file you are sending for example application/x-compressed.
