Hi Ethan,

Here are some things to clean up your code:

Your line:

$phn = $_POST[phone];

should use quotations as follows:

$phn = $_POST['phone'];

Your line:

$sql1 ='select Lname, Fname from Customers where Phone = $Phn ';

Should use double quotes if you need the variable to be interpreted:

$sql1 =select Lname, Fname from Customers where Phone = $Phn ;

Lastly, as people have mentioned PDO is probably the best way to go.
Try connecting to your database with PDO. Look on Google for PDO
prepared statements and use those instead of the mysql escape string
method.

Hope this helps,

I appreciate all your comments, take them seriously and will use the
information contained in them for future programming.

No matter how much skill in programming I have, I will remain a NEWBIE;
ie, someone who wishes to grrow in knowledge and acknowledges that there
are many programmers much more skilled than I.

Thanks again.

happy to hear you got it working.  Sad to see that you didn't heed the 
tips provided to you and alter your code, and that you still have errors 
in it.  oh, well

There are lots of people who have free time on their hands to teach the
basics, which I think is a good thing. Personally, if someone doesn't care
enough to read the manual or attempt to understand the basics, I wouldn't
spend too much time on their problems.

Can we kill this thread?  Or can you guys continue the conversation between
yourselves.  We now have 8 emails pertaining to the technical question, and
8 emails ranting about him asking it.

I understand that some people do not believe this is the appropriate forum
for that question - but personal attacks and rantings accomplish nothing
other than to provide bully tactics and express your outrage at list
spamming while spamming the list.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hi Ethan,

Here are some things to clean up your code:

Your line: 

$phn = $_POST[phone]; 

should use quotations as follows:

$phn = $_POST['phone'];

Your line:

$sql1 ='select Lname, Fname from Customers where Phone = $Phn ';

Should use double quotes if you need the variable to be interpreted:

$sql1 =select Lname, Fname from Customers where Phone = $Phn ;

Lastly, as people have mentioned PDO is probably the best way to go. Try 
connecting to your database with PDO. Look on Google for PDO prepared

Dear List -

I have the following code:

The input from the form is a 10 digit string [1234567890] which is 
converted to phone number format [123-456-7890]


$phn = $_POST[phone];
 $phn = (string)$phn;
 $dsh = '-';
 $Phn = 
$phn[0].$phn[1].$phn[2].$dsh.$phn[3].$phn[4].$phn[5].$dsh.$phn[6].$phn[7].$phn[8].$phn[9]; 

echo $Phn; // this is folded by Thunderbird.  In the script, it is 
//all on one line


mysql_real_escape_string($Phn);
$sql1 ='select Lname, Fname from Customers where Phone = $Phn ';
echo $sql1; //this always shows $phn as Phn and not as a numerical 
//string.

$result1 = mysqli_query($cxn, $sql1);

Well, from first glance you're combining mysql and mysqli. 
Don't know if that is wise or permissible since I think mysql has been 
depreciated. 
Go with mysqli. Next you may want to try...

$sql1 = 'SELECT Lname, Fname FROM Customers WHERE Phone = '.$Phn;

Also, you may want to store the number in your database without the dash and 
just apply the dash when displaying the number in HTML.
Not that this is entirely necessary, more of a personal choice. 
If you have a large number of phone numbers stored lets say, 
numbers with no dash take up less space in the grand scheme of things I guess.

Re: [PHP-DB] Newbie Question $2

2014-06-16 Thread Mike Stowe
Oh a few quick things. 

First, you can use substr to break up the phone instead of grabbing characters- 
might be a little easier to read long term. 

Secondly, mysql_real_escape_string will return the cleaned string, but doesn't 
change the original variable. So you'll need $phn = 
mysql_real_escape_string($phn);

Thirdly anytime you use a single quote the strong is interpreted literally. 
You'll want to switch out the single quotes with double quotes, and then wrap 
$phn in single quotes in order to not break your query. 

Select ... Where phn = '$phn'

I'd also really suggest looking at using PDO or even the mysqli extension tho 
instead of just plain mysql (believe this has been deprecated). 

Sorry for the quick reply, on mobile. But feel free to email me directly and 
I'll be happy to help out more.

[PHP-DB] Newbie question on MDB2 error handling

2009-06-02 Thread P.A.

Hello all,

I am quite new to php and especially MDB2 package. Despite some thorough  
research I could not find an answer yet.
When I try to connect to a database using MDB2::connect method, and the  
database server is not running, I only get an
error code of -1 and a message saying MDB2 Error: unknown error. Looking  
at MDB2 source it rather should say connect failed with a code of -24  
(MDB2_ERROR_CONNECT_FAILED). Is my expectation wrong, or how can I get  
some meaningful message and error code in this situation?


The code I use is:

$dsn = mysqli://mysql:my...@127.0.0.1/MYDB; // This works when mysql  
server is running

$con =  MDB2::connect($dsn);

if(MDB2::isError($con))
{
print_r($con-getCode());
print_r($con-getMessage());
}

Any hint is warmly appreciated!

Thanks,

Pascal.

[PHP-DB] Newbie Question - mysql_select_db fails with access denied.

2004-09-24 Thread Christian Schlaefcke
Hi Folks,

I want to do something like the following:
$db = mysql_connect(localhost, myuser) or die(Connect failed :  .
mysql_error());

mysql_select_db(mydb,$db) or die(SELECT_DB failed :  . mysql_error
());

$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM mytable, $db) or die(Query
failed :  . mysql_error());

The script does not proceed beyond the mysql_select_db line. I get
this error:
SELECT_DB failed: Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database
'mydb'

What happened to the user information. I have granted all neccessary
rights to myuser. But it seems that its even not caring about the
user.

I have MySQL 4.1.4 and PHP 4.3.8-2.1 on a Fedore Core 2 System  running.

RE: [PHP-DB] Newbie Question - mysql_select_db fails with access denied.

2004-09-24 Thread Christian Schlaefcke
I have chosen an empty password. I know that this is a security problem.
Im using it for testing at the moment only. I use it because there also
seems to be an issue with php connecting to mysql servers with verions 
4.1. 

When trying to connect with password I get this:
Connect failed : Client does not support authentication protocol
requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client.

Because I want to track down issue after issue and not anything at once
I decided to find out why mysql_select_db fails first.

What really makes me wonder in my tiny example is that the error message
does not say something like:

SELECT_DB failed: Access denied for user 'myuser'@'localhost' to
database 'mydb'

instead it says:
SELECT_DB failed: Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database
'mydb'

So I think that the username is not interpreted at all. Why not?

Chris

When I switch back to user root with empty password and use
mysql_connect(localhost, root) it works.

I just found out when I set the permission for myuser to localhost
instead of any it works also for myuser.

Now I have to check out why I cant use passwords. Maybe the PHP Version
Im running is not ready to work with MySQL 4.1.4? Any Ideas?

[PHP-DB] newbie question

2004-02-13 Thread t
hi,

i am relatively new to php and new to this email list.

i have what i think are fairly simple questions about using mysql and 
php. i have done some research and can't seem to find the answer i 
need.

# 1. i want to set the date format to display dates in a format other 
than the standard mysql -mm-dd format. i have tried using the mysql 
DATE_FORMAT but i can's seem to get it to work...

ideally i'd like to display dates as 2 digit date followed by three 
letter month abbreviation  and leave the year off completely...

example:   13 feb



# 2. i want to hide entries that are newer than the current date AND 
hide entries older than 365 days.

i apologize if this is the wrong place to ask these questions. if 
someone could point me in the right direction i would appreciate it.



here is the url and code (minus the login info)

http://www.broadcastatic.com

 hi,

 DATE_FORMAT but i can's seem to get it to work...

 ideally i'd like to display dates as 2 digit date followed by three
 letter month abbreviation  and leave the year off completely...

 example:   13 feb

 Use date()

 # 2. i want to hide entries that are newer than the current date AND
 hide entries older than 365 days.

 Limit your SQL to

 ... where datenow() and datedate_sub(now(), interval 365 day) ...

 if date is in datetime format

 If in unixtime format, convert to unixtime for those functions

 ... where dateunix_timestamp() and date(unix_timestamp()-(365*86400)) ...

[PHP-DB] newbie question on data accumulation

2003-11-12 Thread Joffrey Leevy
Hi all:

Curious as to what happens after data is repeatedly
selected from a mysql table overtime.  Does it
accumulate as junk data, stored at some location and
eventually slow down the database/program/server? 
Does any purging have to take place?

Thanks

Am not understanding how to print() the fields in the rows, one after

Hi

I came from ASP and I'm sort of a newbie. I'm sure you'll see
that after my question :-)

I'm looking for a way to insert data in an mysql db but not with an
insert into statement. Is there any way i can do some sort of:

mydb.myfieldname = $myvalue

??

(same as in asp with recordsets: rs!fieldname = value)
any way to do that in a similar manner?

thanks for your help

Re: [PHP-DB] Newbie question - other way than insert statement?

2001-11-20 Thread Miles Thompson

No, but SQL is your friend, and is actually easier than messing around with 
recordsets, once you get the hang of it.

The exact form of your INSERT statement will depend a bit on the database 
are you using, but the following is typical. This is MySQL syntax, I 
believe PostgresSQL is similar.

INSERT INTO tablename ( firstname, lastname, phone_number) VALUES ( 
'$strFirst', '$strLast', '$strPhoneNo' )

and if you are truly confident and believe your table structure will NEVER 
change, you could shorten it to

INSERT tablename VALUES ( '$strFirst', '$strLast', '$strPhoneNo' )

Sometimes you just UPDATE

UPDATE tablename SET firstname = '$strFirst', lastname = '$strLast', 
phone_number = '$strPhoneNo' WHERE primary_key_field = '$UniqueID'

If any rows are returned by a SELECT statement determines whether you use 
an INSERT or an UPDATE, but then you have to do that to determine whether 
you .AddNew or .Edit.

Hope this helps - Miles Thompson

PS Of course _nothing_ beats the ease of use and clarity of FoxPro and its 
descendants. g

[PHP-DB] Newbie Question

2001-11-08 Thread Jay Fitzgerald

Ok, I am still fairly new at PHP and MySQL also, so please bear with me.


TASK: I have a client that wants to have job openings listed on their site 
and they want to be able to add, edit and delete the postings themselves. I 
would do this in flat-file format but there is the risk of that file size 
getting too large and slowing down the server.


SOLUTION: I have created a MySQL database that will hold all the postings 
in a table called 'jobs' and have created a PHP form that will post this 
jobs into the db.

PROBLEM: When I go to the PHP form and enter all of the pertinent job 
information, there is one specific field that will have to have carriage 
returns/line breaks in it between paragraphs. Everything is working except 
for this. Is there a way whenever the user presses ENTER, that either 
PHP/MySQL will convert this into a BR tag only when being displayed in a 
browser and not in the db??


Can anyone out there please help me with this? I am available off-list as 
well if it will be easier to pass code back and forth. Any assistance is 
greatly appreciated!

Yes there is:

Using a php function called: nl2br()
When the data is called from the db and printed to the page use $textdata = 
nl2br($textdata)
This will preserve the enter button being pressed.

Hi Kodrik:
I just looked at your function and would like to use it myself, but shouldn't 
the ampersand line:
$copy=eregi_replace (amp;, , $copy);
look like this instead? So it matches the other lines that have a symbol 
replaced by HTML??
$copy=eregi_replace (, amp;, $copy);
Cheers.
Russ

No, because the  sign is needed to represent the ascii values.
So I'm actually doing it to put it back where it got converted by 
htmlspecialchars.

If you are going to use it for a forum, you might also be interested by  
hyperlinkor.
It converts urls into links, however they are entered (with a www. or not, 
httpd or not...)
http://zc8.com/zc8/ZC8news/shownews.php?articleid=108

You run your string through this function before displaying. and the links 
are anchored.
Do not run it before entering a string in a database, only before echoing the 
string.

My reply to you was bounced back, so I replied to your message on the list 
instead.

Re: [PHP-DB] Newbie Question: Convert SELECT to DELETE statement in mysql

2001-10-19 Thread Heikki Tuuri

Hi!

In MySQL-4.0.0 you can delete from several tables in a join:

DELETE t1, t2 FROM t1, t2, t3 WHERE ...;

But 4.0.0 is still alpha, and it will take some months for it to
stabilize. No compact or defrag is normally needed with
MySQL.

RE: [PHP-DB] Newbie Question: Convert SELECT to DELETE statement in mysql

2001-10-19 Thread Rick Emery

No need to defrag/compact...MySQL will reuse the space.

Since posting my original message, I've learned that version 4.0 (alpha)  of
MySQL was released on 15 October.  In Paragraph 6.4.6 of the MySQL manual,
we read:
The multi table delete format is supported starting from MySQL 4.0.0. 

Bottom line: if you don't mind unstable, ever-changing, in-development
application for mission-critical applications, you can use vers 4.0.
Otherwise, you need to follow the algorithm you've laid out.  Or, if your
web-host has the option, investigate table of TYPE=INNODB.  These tables
support FOREIGN keys which may allow multi-table deletion.  In version 3.23,
your web-host must be running the MYSQLD-MAX binary.  In version 4.0, INNODB
support is in all binaries.

 I can't seem to get a delete statement to work. (This is my first project)

 Thanks,

Re: [PHP-DB] Newbie Question: Convert SELECT to DELETE statement in mysql

2001-10-18 Thread Shaun Honsvick

No, I am not trying to delete with a select statement. That was just there
to show my tables, fields, etc.

So if I understand what you are saying I can not do a delete statement with
a join in it. I would have to query each individual row for the ID that need
to be deleted, delete the row in the first table, then delete the row in the
second table, third table, etc. Then loop for the next intance. Theres got
to be a better way.  Also, after this is done should I run some sort compact
or defrag on the database that restore wasted space?

Thanks,
Shaun

 Are you trying to delete records with a SELECT statement?  That can't be
 done.

 To delete from two different tables, you must use two different DELETE
 statements.

 mysql


 I am trying to run a delete on a mysql database. The delete query needs to
 delete from 2 tables. The select statement is:

 SELECT tinvoices.*, ttrackingnumbers.* FROM tinvoices LEFT JOIN
 ttrackingnumbers ON tinvoices.InvoiceID = ttrackingnumbers.InvoiceID WHERE
 Date  '2001-08-01';

 I can't seem to get a delete statement to work. (This is my first project)

[PHP-DB] Newbie question

2001-05-03 Thread ~BD~

I've gone thru everything I can find, and I'm sure I'm just missing it (it's
happened before), but...

at the end of my script, I run a set of closing and clean-up procedures..
what I would like to be able to do is that when a user bails out of the
script by closing the browser or leaving the site/page, detect that they've
gone, and then go ahead and run my closing procedures.. is this possible?

I'd appreciate a point in the right direction, with or without an RTFM ...
:)

TIA

[PHP-DB] Newbie Question - Importing a table

2001-03-13 Thread Michael J. Waters

I'm new to MySQL and am having trouble importing a table.  The table is a 
text file.  Where I think I'm having trouble is on the options.  The table 
has no text delimiter and uses "," as a field separator.  Where I think I'm 
having problems is with the options.  What I'm using is [-c, --columns= and 
then naming all the columns then the name of the database and the table I 
want it to create.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike Waters

Re: [PHP-DB] newbie question

2001-02-04 Thread Victor Foitzik

Hi Lisa,

Can search engines index any HTML pages that have .php as its extension (any
.php pages without a '?' or '' in the URL) ? For example:
http://www.blablabla.com/blabla.php

Thanks,
Lisa E

yes they can, but my experience is, that most search engine robots do _not_ 
index pages ending in .php and .php3 due to their dynamic nature (please 
correct me or give me a hint how to change this). We had to change the 
extensions to .html to avoid being not indexed by search engines.

Hope this helps
Victor
