Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL: Problem optimizing multi-table row deletion ... errors out :(

If the threadID column is an int, you don't need to wrap the $threadID
variable in quotes.

 hi gang
 
 I'm working on optimizing the SQL for my forum system, but have run into a
 problem trying to optimize the function for deleting a thread with
 accompanying stats data and posts from the database using 1 query.
 
 The current function, that works, looks like this:
 
 // delete all traces of a thread
 function delThread($threadID) {
$result = mysql_query(DELETE FROM hf_threads WHERE
 `threadID`='$threadID');
$result = mysql_query(DELETE FROM hf_thread_stats WHERE
 `threadID`='$threadID');
$result = mysql_query(DELETE FROM hf_posts WHERE `threadID`='$threadID');
 }
 
 I went through the MySQL manual, to try and find a way to optimize this,
 and came up with this variant:
 
 // delete all traces of a thread
 function delThread($threadID) {
$result = mysql_query(DELETE FROM hf_threads,hf_thread_stats,hf_posts
 WHERE `threadID`='$threadID') or die('Unable to delete
 threadbr'.mysql_error());
 }
 
 only it doesn't work at all ... the error output says this:
 
 Unable to delete thread
 You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'hf_thread_stats,hf_posts WHERE
 `threadID`='85'' at line 1
 
 (Obviously I attempted to delete the thread with ID 85 here)
 
 I'm dealing with MySQL 3.23.56-log and PHP 4.3.0 ...
 
 Any ideas for optimizing this will be greatly appreciated, esp since I'm
 not all that great with the more complex SQL syntax...
 
 TIA

Since you started the string with dbl quotes ($sql), any variables you
use in that string will work even if you wrap it in single quotes
(tics). If you use single quotes for the $sql string, you have to
'step out' of the string (or whatever you call it).

$sql = SELECT * FROM $table; // works
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM '.$table; // works

  Hi,
 
  If you have been marketing on the Internet for any length of time, chances
 are you have heard of Corey Rudl. Corey is one of the most successful
 REAL-LIFE Internet marketing experts online today.
 
  As one of my mentors, I have learned more about the hard- hitting Internet
 marketing strategies that really work directly from Corey than any other
 so-called Internet marketing expert. So when I saw Corey's newest idea it
 only took me a few minutes before I was once again amazed by the POWERFUL
 STRATEGIES he had uncovered.
 
  I am talking about a monthly publication that gives you the NO BS EXAMPLES
 of real people making real money and the exact STEP-BY-STEP DETAILS of how
 they're doing it!
 
  Corey introduces you to people just like you and me -- real people who are
 making real money on the Internet -- and shows you the exact strategies they
 have used to generate incomes in excess of $100,000 to $600,000 online every
 year... most of them working from home!
 
  I was in his new private site just yesterday, and even though I've
 personally been marketing on the `Net for quite some time, I learned some
 killer new tricks from people like...
 
  Robert who turned his $275 a week paycheck into a site of online
 investigative resources that takes him only 2 hours each day to run... while
 earning him OVER $250,000 A YEAR in profits!
 
 
  Ellen, a work-at-home mom who generates a great income by simply selling
 her homemade soaps from her site!
 
 
  Ken who made $300,000+ IN HIS SECOND YEAR OF BUSINESS by teaching people
 how to daytrade on the Internet... all from his beachfront condo in Hawaii.
 
 
  Andy, who makes $600,000 a year educating others about the hairloss
 industry and showing people how he managed to reverse his own hairloss!
 
 
  ... and these are just a few of the people that have already been
 EXTENSIVELY INTERVIEWED for Corey's brand new private web site. With his
 monthly subscription you will be exposed to 2 additional interviews every
 single month.
 
  IMPORTANT NOTE: These are not the typical amateur interviews... You will
 hear these people answer some extremely tough questions about the exact
 strategies, software, and tools they used to start, build, and grow their
 businesses to their current success. You'll even hear about the mistakes
 they made, and how they suggest YOU avoid them!
 
  So if you want to skip the failing promotions and get a personal tour of
 REAL WEB SITES built by REAL PEOPLE making REAL PROFITS on the Internet,
 then go to...
 
  http://dynamic.secretstotheirsuccess.com/t.cgi/823254
 
  ... and take advantage of the invaluable tips and tricks that these
 Internet successes reveal so that you can start applying them to your
 business today.
 
  All the best,
 
  P.S. As an extra bonus, you'll also have the opportunity to enter a
 special draw for a site review done by Corey and his team (valued at
 $5,000).
 
  Each month, a member's site is drawn and then reviewed by Corey and his
 team, who dissect the site and give tips and tricks they can use to really
 accellerate their growth and sales.
 
  PLUS! Even if your site isn't chosen, you get the benefit of seeing all of
 the profitable suggestions that Corey and his team make -- many of which
 will likely apply to your site, too!
 
 Wow, we'll all be billionaires in a fortnight!!! ;)

The $_POST is an associative array and the key names need to be
wrapped by commas. The same error is happening on your local machine,
but you notices turned off in your php.ini file. Your code should look
like this...

 Mac users, please forgive such a Windows-centric question, but I need your help. And 
 you can educate me in the process. I am helping a student of mine set up a 
 development environment with php, mysql, and a webserver, and she uses a Mac. Are 
 there any installation issues unique to mac that I should warn her about?

OS X already has Apache 1.3 installed. All she has to do is turn on
web sharing. The DOCUMENT_ROOT is /Library/WebServer/Documents/. OS X
also comes with a precompiled version of PHP (with MySQL support
enabled). I forget which version at the moment, but it's somewhere
around 4.2. So the only thing left is the MySQL part. mysql.com has a
package installer for OS X. It's pretty painless to install. As long
as you read the install docs for OS X. It's all there. There are other
ways to install MySQL on OS X (manual compile, http://fink.sf.net/,
http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/ and a handfull of others), but they
require a little more effort than the packaged version at mysql.com.
http:/www.entropy.ch used to maintain the OS X version of MySQL and
Marc still has documentation on how to set everything up (he also has
precompiled version of PHP for OS X users as well).
 
 Can you recommend a simple web server - she is brand new to server-side work and I 
 am trying to make this as painless as possible. Usually I recommend that students 
 use Xitami, but I don't believe it comes in a Mac flavor. Does the Mac OS come with 
 a server, such as IIS on Windows? Does Apache work well with Mac? Is there anything 
 simpler?
 
 And here's a question I've never thought about. If she installs MySQL on a Mac, and 
 she wants to admin the server through a command line --- does Mac have a command 
 line tool to work with? Typically, when you think command line you think of the old 
 dos prompt. What does the Mac have that will give us command line access?

Funny, when I think of 'command line' I think of UNIX. Interesting.
Oh, OS X is UNIX based by the way... look in /Applications/Utilities/
and you'll find your 'Terminal' app for all your command line needs.
You may need to add the location of the `mysql` binary to your $PATH 
(unless you want to type /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql everytime you want
to use the command line).

 
 Again, please excuse my ignorance, but here is an opp to educate those of us stuck 
 in a MS POV. Thank you in advance.

NP. Hope this helps.

  That didn't work.  Here's why.  This is not a dos file.  It is a unix file

   So what I ended up with was a ^M showing in the middle of a line when I
  open the file in vim.  And... the lines will also end where they shouldn't.
   What is supposed to be one line, then continues on the next.
 
  While dos2unix did strip out the ^m, it left the LF (is it return or
  linefeed in unix) at the end of the line, starting a new one.
 
  I need to actually do a search on ^M followed by LF and replace it with
  nothing so I get my full line back.  But I don't know how to enter in LF or
  CR in a vim search string.

Re: [PHP-DB] Check Boxes

2004-08-18 Thread randy
If one of the checkboxes is NOT checked, then your query will break as
ift will look something like this:

SELECT xxx,,yyy FROM form;

Name your checkboxes like so: ch[]

input type=checkbox name=ch[] value=Enter_Date/

Then you can loop through the checkbox array and run your query that way

$chkboxes = $_POST['ch'];
$sql = 'SELECT ';
foreach($chkboxes as $k = $v)
{
$sql .= $v;
if($k  (sizeof($chkboxes) - 1))
{
$sql .= ', ';
}

$sql .= ' FROM form';

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: MySQL denying access to everything

2004-08-18 Thread randy
you need to ditch the 'data' directory (in the MySQL installation
root) and start from scratch. If you just re-install the MySQL server,
I don't think it will overwrite your data directory.

 MySQLgui.exe, it still gives me the same problem...

Re: AW: [PHP-DB] Re: Subject: LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE

This is a setting in MySQL that you have to explicitly turn on at compile time.

--enable-local-infile   Enable LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE (default: disabled)

I suspect that's what _might_ be happening.

 I often had trouble getting the syntaxt just right with PHP, it's easy to
 end up with the wrong number of slashes around the -lines terminated by
 '- parts of this.
 
 When you ran your query, what did mysql_error() say about it ?
 That would be a line you add directly after the line
 mysql_query($link,$query)
 
 Usually this will tell you immediately if you have an error in your SQL,
 and echoing the $query string you passed to MySQL is a good idea too, it
 can be more obvious to diagnose when it's printed on screen.

 We have updated our server to PHP 4.3.8 and MySQL 4.0.2. Some of our
 clients run a shop software that need 'LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE' to store
 its data to MySQL. MySQL itself supports the command. I can run it from
 mysql-client. That works. I have read about the fix on php.net
 (http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-4.php / http://bugs.php.net/28632).
 Until now, i couldn't find a solution to get it work.
 
 Is there way to get it work?

2004-06-30 Thread Randy C Boland
I'm not sure where the value of $counter is coming from, but it you're
getting it from a SQL SELECT query, it would be more efficient to just
use:
UPDATE statistics SET VALUE(`counter` = `counter`+1)

It's just one less query on the DB, which could make a difference if
you're getting heavy traffic.

   $counter++;
   $SQL = UPDATE statistics SET VALUE (`counter` = $counter)
   $res = mysql_query($SQL);

[PHP-DB] International Addresses and Telephones

I have a form which captures US addresses ( address, city, state ) and

[PHP-DB] PHP, MySQL and Flash

2003-07-09 Thread Rankin, Randy
Does anyone know of any articles on integrating PHP, MySQL and Flash to
perform a drag and drop routine for updating a db?

Specifically, I have a client who is _INSISTING_ that I integrate a drag and
drop feature into his railcar storage application. He wants to be able to
view two railcar storage tracks, Track A and Track B, then drag and drop
cars from Track A to Track B ( or Track B to Track A ). Once he positions (
orders ) all the cars properly on each track, I need to update a MySQL db to
reflect the changes. 

I have already developed the above feature so that he can do this
'textually', but he is _determined_ that he must have the graphic 'drag and
drop' feature. 

There may be another method ( Javascript ? ) to accomplish the same effect.
I am certainly open to any advice and/or opinions. Any pointers would be
_greatly_ appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: [PHP-DB] Generating view of tree?

2003-03-27 Thread Randy
If I understand correctly and you have the data all in one table,
you can just query all the data that goes into the report, sorted
by categories, and output the data in a loop. This code will give
you an ordered list indented and numbered by level. It's not
perfect, but give you the idea...

$qstr=SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY cat1, cat2, cat3;
$rslt=mysql_query($qstr);
$cat1=x;
$cat2=x;
$cat3=x;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($rslt)) {
if ($cat1!=$row['cat1']) {
$indent=1-;
$cat1=$row['cat1'];
echo $indent $cat1BR;
}
if ($cat2!=$row['cat2']) {
$indent=nbsp;nbsp;2-;
$cat2=$row['cat2'];
echo $indent $cat2BR;
}
if ($cat3!=$row['cat3']) {
$indent=nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;3-;
$cat3=$row['cat3'];
echo $indent $cat3BR;
}
}


Hope that helps.

 Now, say you want to add a new car to the beginning.
 
 UPDATE table SET car_id = car_id + 1 WHERE track_id = XX
 
 and then insert your new car at position #1.
 
 Throw in some checks to make sure you don't go over 30 cars and you should
 have it. You can get a count of how many cars are on a certain track with:

 Yes, they are both on a per-connection basis. They'd be useless

I agree. Although, the MySQL docs are confusing on the distinction between
these two functions in my opinion.

The one thing that jumps out at me is that if you insert multiple
rows at the same time with an insert statement, LAST_INSERT_ID() returns the
value for the first inserted row only, whereas MYSQL_INSERT_ID() returns the
last id inserted. Am I reading that right?

I guess the question is: Why is it useful to only store the first id? When
would you want that?

[PHP-DB] mysql_insert_id() vs. last_insert_id()

2003-01-28 Thread Randy Phillips
Hi

I've been checking the last_insert_id() function out and I am curious. The
MySQL docs say to use the mysql_insert_id() function after an insert into
query to grab the key value. Both seem to work; however, there are some
subtle differences.

Which is the best one to use after a single insert statement, or does it
matter?

[PHP-DB] Looking for Beta testers

2003-01-07 Thread Randy Phillips
Hi,

I have been developing a Java Swing UI for MySQL and I am to a point where I
need to have some PHP developers try it out. This is NOT an interface that
manages your databases, tables and columns. What it does is allows you to
connect to a database on your MySQL server, select a table and get a list of
its column names. You then select an HTML form element from a pull down
menu, such as, a text field or radio button, and drag and drop the column
name into your text editor. It concatenates the column name, the html and
the PHP for you.

I am especially interested in having the PHP code that the application
writes evaluated. I want it to be generic enough to accommodate a lot of
different coding styles but not so simple that it does not save the
developer any time writing repetitive code, which is the point.

It should run on any Java virtual machine supporting JDBC-1.2 or JDBC-2.0
(JDK-1.2 or higher) and connect to any MySQL server supporting version 9 or
10 of the MySQL protocol.

I have tested it on MacOSX and Windows 2000. I would like to know how it
behaves on Linux or other systems running the latest JVM.

If you would like to test a demo feel free to contact me off list.

Thanks,

 It seems to me that the first time you go through the loop, if
 $record-wave_num is != $prior_wave then you print the wave number but
 not the person's name--but you already have a record there with a
 person's name!
 
 Try taking out the else statement--if you follow the code from there you
 should be able to fix it up.
 
 Of course, I'm also doing this by just looking at your code, so I may be
 wrong (the odds are not in my favor) :-)

[PHP-DB] Confused

2002-09-23 Thread Rankin, Randy

I have two MySQL tables, groups and users:

groups: group_id, group_name
users:   user_id, user_name, group_id, etc.
 
I would like to produce one table for each group which will list all the
members for that particular group. For example:
 
Blue (group_id 1)
Tom (group_id 1)
Nancy (group_id 1)
Jim (group_id 1)
 
Red (group_id 2)
Bob (group_id 1)
Susan (group_id 1)
James (group_id 1)
 
...
 
My question is, do I need to run 2 queries? The first to select all the
groups and the second to select all the users in each group based on the
group_id? How would I loop through to create a table for each group? 
 
Thanks inadvance for any help.

Hello everyone,

but have not submitted yet.  But I ran into a problem I was hoping I might
get e little help or at least get a point in the right direction.


   I have a table called tblCategories with field category_ID with is
auto_incremented and another field called category_name.

I wish to have a drop down menu on an html page that is generated
automatically with Category_name as the option and the option
value=category_ID.  It is going in a form which I submit and adds to a mysql
database.  Everything is working fine except I cannot create the drop down
menu out of php. I would rather not have to edit my html page when ever I
add a category.

   Is there any place I can look to see how someone else has accomplished
this?  Or is there any specific function I should research in the php.net
manual pages?  I have been looking but not too successfull.

thank you for any help you can offer.

[PHP-DB] Dynamic Drop Down Box

2002-03-05 Thread Rankin, Randy

Does anyone know how I might populate a drop down box based on the users
selection from a previous drop down box? For example, if I have a table
called 'autos' with 2 fields, 'make' and 'model'. I select distinct 'make'
and populate the first drop down box. Based on the user selection, the 2nd
drop down box would be populated with the distinct 'make' for that model
(ie; if the user selects Ford in the first drop down, the 2nd drop down
would be populated with Explorer, Expedition, Ranger, etc.).

Thanks,

[PHP-DB] Dynamic Table Columns

2002-02-18 Thread Rankin, Randy

I have a form (criteria.php) that includes two drop down lists from which a
user can select a start period and an end period from a MySQL table. This
form posts to a form called order_summary.php on which I am using the
$start_period and $end_period variables from the criteria.php form to pull
data from another MySQL table which will produce a summary of sales for
those periods as illustrated by the following example: 

 $start_period $end_period$total
- 
 Order Type | APR-00| MAY-00| Total |
- 
 Widget 1   | $100  | $200  | $300  | 
 Widget 2   | $300  | $200  | $500  | 
. 
. 
. 

OK. Fine and good. I have this working. My problem is this: 

How can I create a table which will dynamically adjust the number of columns
based on the users request. That is, if the user requests APR-00 through
MAY-00, the table will be built as illustrated above.  If the user requests
JAN-01 through JUN-00, the table will be built as illustrated below: 

 $start_period  through
$end_period

-- 
 Order Type | JAN-01| FEB-01| MAR-01| APR-01|
MAY-01  | JUN-01|Total  |

-- 
 Widget 1   | $100  | $200  | $300  | $300  | $300  | $300  | $300  |
 Widget 2   | $300  | $200  | $500  | $300  | $300  | $300  | $300  |

[PHP-DB] First and Last Record Query

2002-02-13 Thread Rankin, Randy

Does anyone know how to grab only the first and last record of a query. 

I have a table named periods with two fields, period_id and period_name. The
user will select a start period and an end period from a drop down list,
assigning $start_period and $end_period variables based on the period id. If
I run this query:

Select period_name
from periods
where period_id between '$start_period_id' and '$end_period_id'
order by period_id

An array is returned which could include one or more records, depending upon
the user selection. I would like to grab the first and last record in the
array so that the final result would be to echo something like This report
is from $start_period through $end_period.

Hope that makes sense ...

RE: [PHP-DB] Connection to Oracle8i

2001-08-16 Thread Rankin, Randy

Rafael,

I am assuming you can connect to your Oracle server from your client (using
net8 for example). 

Did you recompile PHP with Oracle OCI support on your web server? 
Run ?phpinfo()? and see if there is a section on Oracle OCI. If not, that
may be at least part of your problem. Remember that Oracle and OCI8 support
for PHP are different. You can compile PHP with one or both.

Can you post the section of code with regards to line 40 in your oracle.php3
file. That might help too. 

I am not familiar with the oracle_connect() function you are trying to call.
For your reference, here is an example of a connect script that I run using
OCI calls:

%
$connection = OCILogon (user,pass,sid); 
if ($connection == false)
{echo OCIError($connection).BR; 
exit; 
} 

OCILogoff ($connection); 

% 

Hope that helps,

[PHP-DB] Query on Oracle Views

2001-08-06 Thread Rankin, Randy

I am connecting to an Oracle 8 server using OCI, PHP and Apache on a RH
Linux 7.1 box. 
All works well until I try to query an Oracle dynamic view like the
following:

$query = SELECT instance_name, host_name FROM v$instance; 

When I execute this query, the server returns the following error. 
Warning: OCIStmtExecute: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist in
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/oracle/oraprod.php on line 17

My suspicion is that PHP thinks that the '$' in the table name is the
beginning of a variable. Does anyone know how to get around this so that I
can execute a query with a table name like v$instance?

TIA,

Randy Rankin

Subject: [PHP-DB] Escaping 


 Hello,

 I have a table in a MySQL DB (RH Linux/Apache) with a field called
 customer_name. Some of the customer names have an ampersand in them (ie; X

 X Supply). I am performing a select statement on this table to create a
 sales summary with customer name and total sales.

 This works fine; however, I am also creating a dynamic link on the
customer
 name so that the user can click on it to get a detailed report of sales to
 that customer. This works great EXCEPT for the customers with ampersands
in
 thier names. The result of clicking on these customers indicates a No
 Records found for X where X is the letter immediately preceding the
 ampersand.

 Does anyone know how to get around this?

 TIA,

 Randy Rankin
