Hello NYPHP, I have an array that has 13000 email addresses. For now, its in the script but will be in a database table eventually. It is a list of known bad guys.
I have a database table with 9000 records and one of the fields is an email address. In PHP I am using a foreach to loop through the array and do a database lookup to try to find any matching emails. I am using this query inside the foreach loop: $res = ("SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `email` = '$email2Chk'"); $numRows = mysql_num_rows($res); if ( !empty($numRows )) It processes about 12000 addresses in the array and the script times out. Anyone have a better idea for doing this task? TIA for any help. -- Best regards, mikesz mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
