Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert via SQL?
hi! thx for your feedback! just wondered about the sql-documentation saying that the file must be readable t all users. (at least session-files are only read/write-able to the php-user. so i was uncertain.. imho your solution is much nicer for saving the file in the db (allthough it may be a bad idea). you're right ;) sometimes arguing can get anoying (e.g. which distribution of linux is best and so on...) greets ma # life would be easier if i knew the source code... > Von: "John W.

Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert via SQL?
hi!
just a question: don't know it exactly: isn't it possible that the sql-user
on the server may not have enough rights to read the file?
anyway, i would save the file elsewhere on the server, because there are
remarkable performance-issues with big data (tried it once with storing
images for a photo-gallery). it is much faster saving the file in some
directory and just save the path to the file in the db; which on the other
hand, can lead to synchronisation-problems. what do you think about this
topic?
thx -ma

How about just this:
$query = "INSERT INTO Table (orig_name, size, mime_type, data) VALUES
('{$_FILES['userfile']['name']}', '{$_FILES['userfile']['size']}',
'{$_FILES['userfile']['type']}',LOAD_FILE('{$_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']}'))";
Adapt to your needs. No need for PHP to read the file when you can just
let MySQL do it. :)

Re2: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert
hi! just to add: use file() only if you run php 4.3.0 or higher. if this is not the case use this syntax (its binary safe): $fp = fopen($_FILES['myFile']['tmp_name'], 'r'); # on windows use 'rb' instead of 'r' $data = fread($fp, file_size($_FILES['myFile']['tmp_name'])); fclose($fp); instead of $data = join(etc); greets - ma # life would be easier if i knew the source code... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert
hi there are several ways of saving the data within a file. you can save it plain or binary. if you want to save a file in the db i suggest using the field-type BLOB short example: to create the table: CREATE TABLE `files` ( `id` INT(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `fileName` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL, `data` BLOB, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) TYPE=MyISAM the html-form: File: the php-script: for further info go&see: http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php hth? greetings -ma # life would be easier, if i knew the source code... > Von: "Will W" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Antworten an: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Datum: Wed, 7 Jan 2004 20:21:15 -0500 > An: "PHP DB" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Betreff: [PHP-DB] MySQL Insert > > Hello Everyone, > Can anyone tell me how to insert a file, say a .doc, .txt or a .rtf file into > a table from an upload form?? > > Thanks in advance, > ~~Will~~ > -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Please respond to Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL

For some reason the Insert Select statement returned an ERROR and I had to
resort to
INSERT INTO Products
(ProductName,Size,SuggestedRetailPrice,ProductCategory,ManufacturerName)
SELECT *
FROM kalproduct ;
Is there a noticeable reason why:
INSERT INTO Products
(ProductName,Size,SuggestedRetailPrice,ProductCategory,ManufacturerName)
SELECT(kalproduct.Product, kalproduct.size, kalproduct.SRP,
kalproduct.Cat, kalproduct.manname)
FROM kalproduct ;
would have returned an error message?? I don't want to have to create
multiple tables for the purpose of inserting into others.
