You have to define that yourself - you might want it part of a multi-column index for example. You definitely should index it, but it won't happen automatically. Hm, that's weird. Which version of mysql are you using? According to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/innodb-foreign-key-constraints.html: InnoDB requires indexes on foreign keys and referenced keys so that foreign key checks can be fast and not require a table scan. In the referencing table, there must be an index where the foreign key columns are listed as the *first* columns in the same order. Such an index is created on the referencing table automatically if it does not exist. (This is in contrast to some older versions, in which indexes had to be created explicitly or the creation of foreign key constraints would fail.) *index_name*, if given, is used as described previously.

What about historical data, would you not want to know that studentX was enrolled at some point in the past, if you just delete that student and all related data how would you know this? You could also have a 2nd database with the same table structure and move old/delete data into there. You are describing a data warehouse, or a data mart. That is not what transactional databases are there for.

I got a nice new laptop to play with for setting up a demo of one of our web-apps, and since it had Vista (and was high enough spec to handle it) I just put VirtualBox on board and installed OpenSuSE in there to run the server side of the app. A bit of fiddling with network bridges (all documented by the VirtualBox people) and the server is visible just like it was a real machine...

In my enrollment database, we keep historical information. My client is a big computer training organization (for which I also teach).

[PHP] Question on if() priorities

I would set it up that a person could elect to work with one or more Departments. If they work on a College, they work on all Departments in that college. Another option is to just let them do one Dept at a time, and that's it. Kind of depends on what people actually DO in this work, most of the time.

[PHP] Credit Card processing: Chase PaymenTech
Hello - - --- -- - -- I need to develop Credit Card processing for my current application. We have our own shopping cart. We have been trying in vain to get technical information from PaymenTech for *months* -- but it seems that Chase sold part of it, or split it off into a separate company -- or something. in any case, they seem extremely distracted and unresponsive. By doing some heavy googling, I was able to find some code from a PHP developer's web site, mostly for the format of the xml strings to pass to them. I can't believe that they don't have a processing object for PHP already available, but it seems not. I see in the archives a couple of requests to the group for code, but the most recent was a couple of years old. So, I'll ask again: Anybody have modules, code, tips, land mines, or any other information for doing credit card processing with PaymenTech that you would be willing to share?

Hey, X;
Actually, it's skipped because it's seen as a page anchor. That's
a client-side only thing, and the browser would then be looking for:
a name=CC id=CC/a
Instead, skip the hashmark:
a href=http://www.anyurl.com/?mypar=17color=CC; ...
and have it parsed similarly to this:
?php
if(strlen($_GET['color']) == 6
preg_match('/[a-f0-9]{6}/i',trim($_GET['color']))) {
// Color is a legitimate HTML hexadecimal color
$_GET['color'] = strtoupper($_GET['color']); // Set upper-case
} else {
// Color is not legit, was not supplied, or this may be a lame
hack attempt
$_GET['color'] = 'CC'; // Force default color
}
$color = '#'.$_GET['color'];

Hey there, okay I ran into these and need some tips, pointers etc... First I was getting the Resource ID#5 error with this query: $query=SELECT * FROM importimages WHERE Category='Obits'; $result = mysql_query($query); so then I read how mysql_query returns a resource, so I tried this: $query = SELECT * FROM importimages WHERE Category='Obits' ; $result = mysql_query ($query); $arr = mysql_fetch_row($result); $result2 = $arr[0]; echo ($result2); when I echo the result2 I get: 8561 --no idea what the heck that is the next line is this and its giving me probs: while ($row = mysql_fetch_object ($result)) --that is what it was orginally but it is not pulling anything out of the db, which led me to echo the query results (see I am learning finally) so I could see if it really wasn't doing anything and well its not...and if I try to make an array and then fetch it as an object it tells me invalid, I think I'm confused about how to make an object out of an array (if that is what I want to do) this is pulling images from a db.

Thanks Daniel that did get me further, am I now to build an object from the
array, or take off one of the array to make an object, your snippet did grab
the names of the images and print them to the page but then I get stuck
where the page is trying to get the property of a non-object ..so I guess
im asking is a possible to turn an array into an object? or in this case
separate objects?

NOTE: You shouldn't need stripslashes(), but it's put there just
for backwards-compatibility in case you're on an older (or
poorly-configured) installation.

Thanks Daniel that did get me further, am I now to build an object from the
array, or take off one of the array to make an object, your snippet did grab
the names of the images and print them to the page but then I get stuck
where the page is trying to get the property of a non-object ..so I guess
im asking is a possible to turn an array into an object? or in this case
separate objects?
Well I did some changes and I must be learning because although I have the
same error I don't have new ones...
so now the code is like this:
$sql = SELECT * FROM `importimages` WHERE `Category` = 'Obits';
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(Error in .__FILE__.:.__LINE__.
- .mysql_error());
while($object = mysql_fetch_object($result)) {
foreach($object as $k = $v) {
echo stripslashes($k).: .stripslashes($v).br /\n;
}
}
$FileName = $object-Image; ---This is the line that is telling
me it is trying to get the properties of a non-object

That's because you're calling that as an object using OOP
standards, where I gave you procedural code. To interface with my
code, just call it as:
?php
// other code here
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo $row['Image'].br /\n; // If `Image` is the column name.
}
// code continues

Here is the full chunk:

$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(Error in .__FILE__.:.__LINE__.
- .mysql_error());
while($object = mysql_fetch_object($result)) {

}
}
$FilePath = output/WebImagesHiRes/;
$BackupPath = output/WebImagesHiRes/backup/;
$FileName = $object-Image; //because it is going to process an
image doesnt that make it oop?
$FileName = str_replace(/, , $FileName);
$FileName = str_replace(.jpg, , $FileName);
Well its late friday afternoon here, I'm ready to break away from my
desk...maybe on monday I will be able to get it working (right now our obit

Try this
?php
$FilePath = output/WebImagesHiRes/;
$BackupPath = output/WebImagesHiRes/backup/;
#setup query
$sql = SELECT * FROM `importimages` WHERE `Category` = 'Obits';
#excute query and return results, if any
$result = mysql_query($sql) or
die(Error in .__FILE__.:.__LINE__. - .mysql_error());
# Loop through results, pulling each resulting row as an object
while($object = mysql_fetch_object($result)) {
# Grab the Image contents and work with it.
$FileName = $object-Image; // Watch it, this is case-sensitive!!!
$FileName = str_replace(/, , $FileName);
$FileName = str_replace(.jpg, , $FileName);
echo $FileName;
... Do the rest of what you place to do with each row ...
}

sounds right to me Rob..
function whatever() {
$mailer = new PHPMailer();
$mailer-send( $this-email );
}
pretty standard stuff (and the point of classes/objects i think?
