The javascript showing up in the left frame is not showing the same as your link to it.
The page showing up in the frame
is broken. The javascript tags are closed before the script
<script language="JavaScript"></script>

Also, for adding items onto an array use array_push()

Yeah but, this doesn't work either? I'm trying :)
$news = mysql_query("select AS from $table");
while ($mydata = mysql_fetch_object($news))
{
# $authors = explode(";", $mydata->AS);
array_push ($authors, explode(";", $mydata->AS));
}
foreach($authors as $author)
{
echo "$author<br>\n";
}
--- End Message ---

OK. I use:
while ($mydata = mysql_fetch_object($news))
{
$authors = explode(";", $mydata->AS);
}
Then why "Invalid argument supplied for foreach()"
Am I indeed building an array as I go through my database?
foreach($authors as $author)
{
#echo sort($author)".<br>\n";
echo "$author<br>\n";
}
http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php
foreach ($arr as $value) {
echo "Value: $value<br>\n";
}
I have the right syntax? Did I build the array?
Newbie, but have to learn it somehow :)
----------------snip---------------------
$myconnection = mysql_connect($server,$user,$pass);
mysql_select_db($db,$myconnection);
$news = mysql_query("select AS from $table");
while ($mydata = mysql_fetch_object($news))
{
$authors = explode(";", $mydata->AS);
}
foreach($authors as $author)
{
echo "$author<br>\n";

Well, if $submit_happening is set to 0, "0" or false then
if($submit_happening) will evaluate to false while
if(isset($submit_happening)) will evaluate to true
As the documentation (please read http://www.php.net/isset) isset()
returns true if the variable exists and false if it doesn't.

The php_gd.dll is in the extension folder, the error does not show in
Apache, it opens with php 4.1.1 running..... The error shows on the page in
the browser when the page is loaded? I restarted Apache after altering the
.ini file?

I'm very new to PHP, as a matter of fact, I never had any experience anything about
web-enabled applications development. I've been more into local Visual Basic and MS
SQL Serve devt. If there's any kind soul out there, please HEEEEEEEELPPPPP!!!!
The question is: why do the values of my session variables disappear when i traverse
through different php scripts? duhhhhhh =(
Sincerely yours,
Alex

Do you have cookies enabled? By default the session variables rely on
PHP sending a session cookie. If your browser doesn't accept them,
you'll end up with 'new' sessions on every page.

every script you use the variable should contain a "session_start()"
statement...

For one of my php applications I want to check user's UNIX[Linux] account. If his /
her username password pair matches with that of /etc/passwd or samba or NIS then only
the user will be allowed to access the contents. How to achieve this ?
TIA

hi,
I'm working on content management system entirely written in Object
oriented PHP using templates
i used output buffering to be able to send header calls in the middle of my
classes
i have noticed that performance has become "random" meaning that the same
script could take from 1 up to 30 seconds in the same conditions, passing
exactly the same params.
while trying to find a solution, i removed the ob_end_flush() call while
keeping the ob_start() call at the beginning of the script
and strangely speed of execution came back to normal.
output buffering is still on
i am not flushing it out
the pages are generated just fine without freeing the buffer ??!!!!
i would like to know if anyone has had similar experiences with output
buffering
this behavior occurred on a windows and a linux box both with php 4.1.1 and
pretty much the same php.ini settings
Regards

Hi folks,
just wondering, why the mysql_db_query is being abandoned and called
"deprecated" ?
With the current implementation of the mysql_connect I have a problem
with using 2 databases with the same username/password.
PHP will use the same connection and so only use one of the two
databases :-(.
Is there any other way than always calling mysql_select_db before making
a query?
I was used using an abstraction layer with a class for each connection
which used also mysql_db_query for the query so that I could use each
class on a different database (but with the same connection parameters).
Is there a speed penalty in using the combination of
mysql_select_db();mysql_query ... compared against mysql_db_query?
Thanks a lot for already reading this ;-)
Thomas

You can add the database to your query. Such as:
SELECT * FROM database.table WHERE stuff=other_stuff;
I am not sure what other databases support this notation but I know that
MySQL does.

Hi there,
I would like to upload files using a form.
Unfortunatelly it takes a while till the file is uploaded to the server.
During this time the same page with the submit button is viewed. If the user
clicks another time on the submit button, I get wrong records and sometimes
the same file twice.
Is there a way to redirect imediatelly to a waiting page? I tryed to
redirect, but somehow the server is first uploading the file before
something else happens.
Thanx for any help
Andy
