[PHP-DB] Query was empty - Strange problem

2005-03-16 Thread Vinayakam Murugan
Hi

I have an application in which i am connecting to three different
databases. I have three  connect and query procedure. I am facing
problems with one of these databases.

---
$Conn = mysql_pconnect($Hostname,$Loginname,$Passwd);

$Ret = mysql_select_db ($Dbname, $Conn);

if (!$Ret)
{
$Error = Error opening Database : $Dbname BR;
return FALSE;
}

$Ret = mysql_query ($Query, $Conn) or $Error = BRBR .
mysql_errno() . --- . mysql_error() . BRBR;

echo $Error;
---

I am getting an Error - Query was empty.

I have tried echoin $Query before and after the mysql_query. It shows
a proper query which if I copy and execute in phpmyadmin, i get the
required results. It is not workign through PHP only.


Any pointers would be very helpful.

This is a common procedure. $Query is being passed to it. As I had
said before, i had tried echoing $Query before and after the
mysql_query statement and it displays a proper query.

That's what driving me nuts! :-(

Here is the entire function

function Executequery($Query)
{
global $Error, $Hostname,$Loginname,$Passwd,$Dbname,$Conn;

$Conn = mysql_pconnect($Hostname,$Loginname,$Passwd);

$Ret = mysql_select_db ($Dbname, $Conn);

if (!$Ret)
{
$Error = Error opening Database : $Dbname BR;
return FALSE;
}

$Ret = mysql_query ($Query, $Conn) or $Error = BRBR .
mysql_errno() . --- . mysql_error() . BRBR;


if (!$Error)
{
$numfields = mysql_num_fields($Ret);
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($Ret);
if($numrows == 0)
{
$Error = Query returned zero records;
return FALSE;
}
}
else
{
return FALSE;
}


}

[PHP-DB] Implementing search in a database driven website

2004-10-26 Thread Vinayakam Murugan
Hi

I have a PHP-mysql website in which I want to implement search functionality. 

Through the content management section, the user can enter data into
the database. Here he can enter HTML tags and embedded CSS stylesheets
also. Now the problem is while searching the table, I want to show
couple of lines of the relevant text. This gets displayed along with
the HTML tags and CSS entries. Is there anyway I can display only the
text ? I have tried strip_tags but it does not strip the CSS entries.

Thanks, Robby. This worked. However I wasn't able to get any
documentation on the siU parameters used in the command as in

 $string= preg_replace('style[^]*.*/style'siU,'',$string);

Any pointers.
