Alaor Barroso wrote: It looks like PHP can't communicate with MSSQL but it connect! Strange... What server platform are you using? If you are on *nix you will need to install freetds and then build php with freetds support before you can use mssql with it.

are you using a 'Text' or a 'varchar' column type?

Hi Ben, The setting in the php.ini is; mssql.textlimit = 4096 Reset that value to what you want. I have mine set to 400.

That's precisely what I was looking for, Alex! I must have overlooked it when skimming through php.ini. Thanks!

[PHP] Re: PHP - mssql
I doubt msSQL differs from MySQL --
$link = mssql_connect( $host, $user, $pass ) or die( Can't connect to the
DB! );
mssql_select_db( $dbname, $link ) or die( Can't select database );
$query = SELECT * FROM members WHERE user='$user' AND pass='$pass';;
$result = mssql_query( $query, $link );
if(!mssql_num_rows( $result )){
die( Username/Password no good );
}
else{
die( Everything is okay! );
}
like i said, i think all the mysql functions in php have a mssql equiv. --
like mssql_num_rows().

[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
Hi. I have a table that contains lots of names in mssql. and i want to
make
a page
where each of theese individuals can login with that spesific username and
password.
So my question is : what is the proper (best) command to use for sending
and
returning the info?
?PHP
$link = mssql_connect($hostname,$username,$password);
$dblink = mssql_select_db($dbname, $link);
if ( $link $dblink )
{
$query = select * from members where user = '$user' and pass = '$pass';
$result = mssql_query( $query );
if ( $result ) echo correct login;
else echo wrong login;
}
?
This is not working... i have tried everything i can think of that can
work
but with no luck.
So if someone have a solution for me... i would apriciate it :)
(and yes i do have defined all the vars in the script they are just not
that
important here)
