Re: [PHP-DB] Tricky MySQL / php Script
I assume you mean the 1052367746 portion of that URL? Am I right? If so: $id = basename($photoid, .jpg); That would work, I think, if you just wanted the numeric portion of the path. Not sure if this is what you want. -- Peter Ellis - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Design and Development Consultant naturalaxis | http://www.naturalaxis.com/ On Wed, 2004-08-18 at 19:55 -0400, Vern wrote: I have a bunch of thumbnails that are pulled from a recordset based on a user profile.

I can of course pass along the user's ID as well mypage.php?photoID=uploads/1052367746.jpguserID=215 which of course will allow me to create a new recordset based on the user's id SELECT * FROM penpals_photos WHERE penpals_photos.filename = $photoID but how do I point the database first record at the photoID so that I can use the next and previous options to see the next/previous picture? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] Tricky MySQL / php Script
That's not what I mean at all. I actually have no idea where you got that from. :) Basically what I'm trying to say is this. The following is my url: mypage.php?photoID=uploads/1052367746.jpguserID=215 photoID = uploads/1052367746.jpg userID = 215 I want to point to a record in a recordset. That records id is uploads/1052367746.jpg However, I want to return all records for the userID 215. How do I point my recordset at that file in the recordset so that the user can go to the next and previous records in that recordset based on the user's id? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] Tricky MySQL / php Script
Ach, and the light bulb goes on. Sorry, wasn't really thinking about it completely earlier. Here's a less dimbrained suggestion: could you encode the user ID as part of the filename itself? Like, for instance, write the script so that it would read something like: blah.jpg.215 and strip off the .215, converting it into a user ID and stripping it from the file name before displaying the file? Hopefully, that's much closer to an actual coherent suggestion :) - P On Wed, 2004-08-18 at 21:23 -0400, Vern wrote: That's not what I mean at all.

Sorry but that doesn't make and sense either. I have no problems passing the variables along. Why are you trying to tag that to the image? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Assuming you have already created your 'recordset': loop through recordset looking for 'photoID' when found, use mysql_data_seek() to grab the previous and next records -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design Hosting * Internet Intranet Applications Development * -- Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-db -- /* No problem is so formidable that you can't walk away from it. -- C.
