[PHP-DB] Re: mysql_fetch_assoc to ADOdb??

Hi all,
I'm converting an application from Mysql native code to ADODB.
Is there a simple way to get ADOdb's GetAssoc() function to behave exactly
like mysel_fetch_assoc, where the array keys are field names instead of
the key fields themselves? IE:
What's wrong with:
$db-setFetchMode(ADODB_FETCH_ASSOC);
$rs = $db-Execute('...');
$rows = $rs-getRows();

Now this works with URLs that I print as hyperlinks, but the amp; does not print if I print the URL as a normal string. If I view the page source the amp; is there, but not on the page itself. Anyone know how to fix this? If you generate an URL you should use http://www.php.net/urlencode. If you want to insert that URL in a html page you should use http://www.php.net/htmlentities. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Tim Van Wassenhove http://timvw.madoka.be -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

My question is is it possible to have the software connect to 2 different databases depending on which is needed? With some database abstraction layer it seems quite easy to run all the select queries on a slave server, and do the update/insert/delete queries on the master server. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Tim Van Wassenhove http://www.timvw.info -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It's going to take you a while to get through that dictionary. You're mistaken here. Every kiddie knows he has to fork 50 concurrent threads that try to authenticate... I'd suggest to have 2 queues for failed authentication attempts. One containing (ip - timestamp) pairs, the other containing (username - timestamp) pairs. Every time someone tries to authenticate, you count the number of failures in both queues. The larger the number, the longer the sleep will take.

Well the advantage of using a regex is that you can perform some form of validation on the address.

SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM temporary_table WHERE name='TMP21567'; Probably you'll want to make the name the primary key or at least unique.

Re: Re[2]: [PHP-DB] Table locking
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], Emre Erdogan wrote: Hi... I want to say some words about the Table Locking problem. I had a problem something like this one, I find solution for this by locking only the item that will updated. I added two areas one that has a value 0 or 1 giving it is currently used by someone, and second time it is started to use, default 0. When someone trying to update the item, first area has the value 1 and the second has the current time. After update completes, ifrst has the value 0, and second also 0. I think one row will satisfy, namele a timestamp last_update. If you generate a form for the user to update the values of the current record, just add the timestamp as a hidden value. If the user submits the updated values compare the submitted last_update with the value in the database. If they are equal, perform the update (and change the value for last_update). If they are not equal, somebody else has changed the values in the meantime and the update should not be executed. If you are looking for other synchronization techniques you should have a look at the algorithms by Dekker and Peterson etc...
