Hi!
While this is not a MySQL mailing list, I try to give you some hints and
keep it short.
There is maybe one important thing which should considered: clustered
index. If use InnoDB you can think about to not using a surrogate key
but a natural one which best support the query which you will use in
most cases.
An InnoDB table's primary key is a clustered index and querying against
it is very fast.
Best Regards,
Felhő

for ($i = 1; $i = 12; $i++)
{
$month = date( 'm', strtotime( 1970-$i-01 ));
echo option value=\$i\$month/option;
}
Or this:
printf( %02d, 5 );
However, please consider replacing numeric identifiers for months with
textual ones ('M' rather than 'm'). [01] [Apr] [2008] doesn't cause
the confusion that [01] [04] [2008] does.

[PHP] Safe mode story
Hi all, I'm running a Plesk 8.3 mass hosting server equipped with PHP 5.1.6 on CentOS 5, and I'm facing the problem of PHP Safe mode barfing at the UID mismatch of PHP scripts uploaded by user's FTP UID, and later executed by Apache UID, where user's PHP scripts thusly uploaded attempt to write any files while doing their job. Is there an educated solution? What if I relax safe mode checks to gid (safe_mode_gid=On), and given that GID is psacln for every Plesk-hosted customer, with only UIDs being different, is there any risk that folks operating on their own chmod 660 files will be able to overwrite other people's chmod 660 files? Or will open_basedir be enough to prevent unwanted PHP level file access while relaxing safe mode uid check at the same time? (by default, it is properly set by Plesk in %mysite%/conf/httpd.include) ? BTW, safe_mode_exec_dir is empty by default, does it mean if I do set safe_mode_gid then users will be able to exec other Plesk users' cgi-bin scripts etc. because of GIDs being equal?? Safe mode has _got_ to be there for some good reason. Thanks in advance for any tips. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] PHP-MYSQL Error: Can't connect to MySQL socket. Can someonehelp me out please?
Thanks. I just stopped mysql and when I try to start it again it throws another set of errors: chown: changing ownership of `/home-public/mysql6': Operation not permitted So I guess something is messed up completely. I wish I installed it better. Now the installing is messed up I guess with all sorts of bad files. I will try Google now...

Oh... This is the fourth time I'm doing that except that this time yum installed mysql6 instead of older versions... I don't see any way out other than reinstalling the OS itself... There are so many dependency failures I'm spending more time troubleshooting than actually coding something :) On Sun, May 11, 2008 at 12:27 AM, Nathan Nobbe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sun, May 11, 2008 at 1:22 AM, Rahul P [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks.
