Re: [PHP] step by step learning
hey paul, php is not like html. HTML is a markup language and PHP is a scripting languange. Once you get through installing PHP, it is not like HTML where you start with the basic tags and learn them one by one. PHP has functions and you need to know which funcitons you need for the right job. I would recommend phpfreaks.com. That is where I started and probably a beginners book or a reference book. If you do not have any programming experience, you are best off getting a beginners guide which will explain concepts along with the code. PHP is easy to use, but not quite as easy as HTML and CSS. PHP also has an online manual with examples which is on par with no other manual that I have found (with the exceptionn of maybe MySQL). So looking up functions online on their site is also a good starting place. jzf Paul Kain wrote: Hi there are there any sites online that show one how to learn php in a step by step fashion?

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP Designer 2005
Well, it does help to know that pther people are using the product on multiple machines and are not having problems. It may be that there is something conflicting with the program. HE may have not yet looked into that? He also may have a memory problem. PHPD2005 does not seem to eat up resources. If he likes the program, knowing other people use it fine in many settings may lead him to look for other root causes John Nichel wrote: Joseph Connolly wrote: Sorry, but i have had NO problems with PHP Designer 2005 I have it running on 3 machines...never a problem with memory usagei think it is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Re: [PHP] phpmyadmin blank screen.
1- are you loading the mssql extensions or the mysql extensionsyou keep interchanging the two and they ARE NOT the same 2- in addition you may have to load the mysqli extension if you want to run phpMyAdmin. 3- re read the php manual and the phpMyAdmin If the screen is blank trying to read the source code to see if there is anything at all there. Then make sure php is running correctly and your databases are running correctly...i have a feeling one or both might not be. THEN, you have to make sure your extensions are compatible with the new password authenticaiton method begin used by phpMyAdmin. (this is where mysqli come into play).

Re: [PHP] uploading file
I though you could limit it in the php.ini file. OR, you can determine it's length through php and then discard it.

Re: [PHP] uploading file
Thanks for the info. That makes sense. John Nichel wrote: Joseph Connolly wrote: I though you could limit it in the php.ini file. OR, you can determine it's length through php and then discard it. I remember reading something about limiting file size and overidding that limit in the script. If i find it i will post it here. You can limit it with PHP. However, for php to determine the filesize and check it against the limit, the file has to be uploaded first, ie on the server. The OP wants to check the filesize while it's still on the client machine, and PHP can't do that. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] sql question
if i understand you question... SELECT columns FROM table WHERE (condition #1) AND (condition #2); You can add many conditions. There are many ways to do this. This one is probably the most simple for only two conditions. Depending on your needs you also may need to create a subquery. SELECT colummns FROM table WHERE (condition#1) AND ( SELECT columns FROM table WHERE (condition#1a); The second is more useful in joins or when joining a table to itself.

Re: [PHP] Help with SQL Query String
You should not just give him the code but rather tell him why. 1. trim() is a php function. MySQL does not know what to do with it. You need to place it 'outside' of the sql. You can also do something like this: $userid = trim($row['USERID']); Then use $userid in your sql. 2. Items in arrays must be in quotes. jzf Jay Blanchard wrote: [snip] $sql = INSERT INTO tblname (USERID,FULLNAME,SSN,STARTDATE) VALUES (trim($row[USERID]),trim($row[FULLNAME]),trim($row[SSNO]),trim($row[STAR TDAT E])); [/snip] Time to quote and concatenate and make pretty... $sql = INSERT INTO tblname (USERID,FULLNAME,SSN,STARTDATE) ; $sql .= VALUES ( ; $sql .= ' . trim($row['USERID']) . ', ; $sql .= ' . trim($row['FULLNAME']) . ', ; $sql .= ' . trim($row['SSNO']) . ', ; $sql .= ' . trim($row['STARTDATE']) .

Re: [PHP] Help with SQL Query String
well...i would have told him to go pound sand...the php manual is great

Ya'll bitch when I make them RTFM, ya'll bitch when I do codewhat's
a guy to do? j/k
Actually http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/string-functions.html shows
that MySQL also has a trim function which could be applied thusly;
$sql = INSERT INTO tblname (USERID,FULLNAME,SSN,STARTDATE) ;
$sql .= VALUES ( ;
$sql .= TRIM(' . $row['USERID'] . '), ;
$sql .= TRIM(' . $row['FULLNAME'] . '), ;
$sql .= TRIM(' . $row['SSNO'] . '), ;
$sql .= TRIM(' . $row['STARTDATE'] . ') ;
$sql .= ) ;

Re: [PHP] Insertion of integer in a database
I don't think the integer is the problem, but if it is you can turn
time() into a variable and then,
$time = time();
david joffrin wrote:
Hi folks,
Problem is fairly simple, but how can I insert integer in an SQL
statement?
So, I only had strings, but now I have introduced a timestamp column
(bigint to cover the milleseconds), and I have the following statement:
$queryInsert = INSERT INTO mytables (..., timestamp) VALUES (';
$queryInsert .= ...; // several columns
$queryInsert .= ', ';
$queryInsert .= time() . ');
$result = mysql_query($queryInsert);
This is not working as time() returns an integer and .= only works
with strings!
How can I cope with that?
Thanks.
