RE: [PHP-DB] Update Query
Aaron,
I'll tell you right now that I don't have ANY experience creating temporary
tables. None. Haven't needed to go down that road yet.
So, in the true spirit of the learning process, I'm going to do what anybody
else would (and should) do:
Take a wild guess. And here it is:
I think your process for creating your temporary table is flawed. I've
looked through the MySQL manual and found this:
"6.5.3 CREATE TABLE Syntax
CREATE [TEMPORARY] TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] tbl_name [(create_definition,...)]
[table_options] [select_statement]"
So, without a really good understanding of what you're trying to select into
the temporary table, your query might look like:
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE $tbl_temp SELECT distinct(company_id) from
Associations where product_id=9;
Then you can do whatever query you need to against the temporary table then,
when you're done, you'll drop the temporary table.
Your MySQL error is probably occurring because there is no table on which to
perform the query you're sending to the database.
I'm positive there are others on this list with more experience using
temporary tables than I, but this might be a push in the right direction (I
hope).
Hope this helps.
Rich

Well, if you stop to think about this for a second, it may occur to you to wonder how MySQL is supposed to tell the difference between the column name id-sys, and the expression id-sys (i.e. the value of the id column minus the value of the sys column). The answer is that you have to demarcate a column name like this that is ambiguous -- and in MySQL that's with ` back ticks. (Other databases have other means of doing this -- or just restrict column names to avoid the issue!) Cheers!

I understand that the column name does not normally need quotes, but without quotes on the column name I get a mysql error message about no column named 'id'. Unfortunately, I cannot even get the UPDATE statement working outside of PHP through an direct SQL statement.

RE: [PHP-DB] Update Query Help...
is it a mysql field type of datetime?
if so, you may want to use this instead
$timestamp=date("Y-m-j H:i:s");
$update = "UPDATE accounts SET atime='$timestamp' WHERE id-sys='$tmp'";
that puts the current timestamp in mysql format for entry into your table.
