Re: [PHP] Error in variable when looping

[menezesd]

Sorry Rick. Thanks.

I could not understand your question. Are you asking for more of the code? I did not 
include that as I thought it would be too long in the mail.

Thanks
Denis

[PHP] restore_error_handler() to default error handler

[Brian T. Allen]

Hi,

I was playing around with error handlers, and tried this:



Which worked just fine.  A little too good, in fact.

I got over 1,200 emails in a matter of minutes (high traffic site).

I was finally able to get it to stop by re-declaring the function
without the mail() call, but how do I restore PHP's default error
handler?

I haven't had any success with restore_error_handler();

Thanks,
Brian

Re: [PHP] Error in variable when looping

[Tim Ward]

you're not differentiating between form elements on different rows.
all the hidden elements have the same name and are in the same
form so only the last one will be available as all the submit buttons
are in the same form.

you need to put ... tags around each submit/hidden
pair.

Hi Anthony!

Have you tried giving the full path of 'data.txt' to fopen? Like this:

$file = fopen("d:\\inetpub\\www.blahblah.org\\formtest.php", "a+");

Is it you or your ISP that uses win98?

Here's the code:

I've tried every variation of the code, such as using "notls" or not. In any event, I know the code works because I can log into every other pop server I've tried.

imap_last_error() returns: Can not authenticate to POP3 server

Has anyone else run into this? Is there a way to see more about the interaction between imap_open and the pop server?

[PHP] regular expression

[Corin Langosch]

hi,
i wrote a regular expression to match email adresses:
$text = preg_replace("/([a-z0-9_]|\\-|\\.)+@([^[:space:]<>]*)([[:alnum:]-])/i", "mailto:\\1\";>\\1", $text);

unluckily also things like ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] were matched.
so i rewrote it to:
$text = 
preg_replace("/(?]*)([[:alnum:]-]))/i",
 "mailto:\\1\";>\\1", $text);

but this gives me:
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]

thanks for your help! :)

[PHP] HTTP_ACCEPT - Reliabilty?

[SED]

I'm using Flash very often within websites. Like you know, sometimes the
user doesn't have the Flash-plug-in so I was wandering if I could depend
on this $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT'] variable to look for "shockwave-flash".
If found, the visitor has Flash-plugging, if not, he doesn't.

So my question really is, can I base my Flash-detection on this global
variable or is too uncertain? (e.g. when the user is using Netscape,
Opera etc., Linux, Mac etc.)

Re: [PHP] HTTP_ACCEPT - Reliabilty?

[Danny Shepherd]

Hi,

No, I wouldn't rely on it at all, I couldn't find a browser that *does* have
that mime-type in it's header! - Here's what IE6 sends :

Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,
application/msword, */*
Accept-Language: en-gb
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate

Flash, along with a multitude of other plugins, is installed and working
fine.

FWIW, Mozilla 1.3a sends:

Accept:
text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=
0.8,video/x-mng,image/png,image/jpeg,image/gif;q=0.2,*/*;q=0.1
Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate,compress;q=0.9

Opera 7 sends:

Accept: text/html, image/png, image/jpeg, image/gif, image/x-xbitmap,
*/*;q=0.1
Accept-Language: en
Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip, x-gzip, identity, *;q=0

[PHP] upgrading from 4.0.6 to 4.3.0

[gamin]

Hi,

I have currently working a Red Hat 7.2 system that installs PHP 4.0.6
from the CD and it works fine. I want to upgrade to ver 4.3.0  what would be
the simplest way to do this without breaking any of the old modules etc. I
wont mind making changes to my scripts in case of changes between versions.

Do i need to remove the old PHP installation before building the new one
?

Would using the configure command that shows in the 
currently (with 4.0.6) work with the ver 4.3.0 ?

Thank you

gamin.

I did not check the entire regexp but it seems to do what you need.
Um, the NOT thingy in a regexp is the ^ in stead of the !.

And my line will not tagify any email preceded by a forward slash.

If your old PHP was automatically installed by RH then just do an "rpm 
-e php" (maybe rpm-r php-4.0.6. To find out the write string to use to 
rpm -qa | grep php)

Do i need to remove the old PHP installation before building the new one
?


No, if you don't you need to take extra steps. And I can't see why you 
want to keep the old version around anyway.

Would using the configure command that shows in the 
currently (with 4.0.6) work with the ver 4.3.0 ?


Most probably. SO I suggest downloading the 4.3.0 source files and doing 
a ./configure with the options you can from phpinfo() and then compiling :)

[PHP] Serial device /dev/ttyS0

[Scott Houseman]

Hi.

Would it be possible to use PHP to communicate with
a serail device e.g. a modem.
I would like to send AT commands to a GSM modem &
be able to read the resulting output.

I know PHP may not be ideal for this, but I think if
it's possible, it would be the quickest way of knocking something
together.

Thanks

Assuming line 22 is (it would help if you told us _which_ is line 22)

  $smarty->assign("message", $message);

and assuming that you _really_ have defined $smarty in the main code then I 
cannot see what you're doing wrong.

Does $smarty->assign("message", $message work in the main loop (ie when not in 
a function)?

print "";

you'll  then have as many forms as you have rows and which

Are you sure
$smarty = new Smarty
is in the main code?
Can it be in another function?

Try setting

Does that help?


( register_globals = off )
Imho, globals don't working with "globals off", nut i can't find this in
manual.

no, register_globals is only about the automatical production of variables 
from FORM, GET and other data input.
But i fully agree the name is confusing.

[PHP] Cookie, header, output problems

[J. Alden Gillespy]

I'm creating an e-commerce website, and I just need clarification as to
whether a MySQL query is considered as "browser output".  I ask because
I have the following code, but the cookie isn't being set:

if ($op == "login") {
if (!isset($username) && !isset($userpass)) {
} else {
if ($username == "" || $userpass == "") {
$errormsg = "Invalid username or password.
Please try again.";
} else {
if (mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("select * from
`$cart->user_table` where username=\"$username\" and
userpass=\"$userpass\"", $cart->dblink)) == 1) {
setcookie("jackloren_user",
"$username:$userpass", time() + 2592000); // expires in 30 days
header("Location:
http://www.jackloren.com/";);
//  echo "test";
/*  if ($rd != "") {
redirectURL($rd,"");
} else {
redirectURL("","");
} */
} else {
$errormsg = "Invalid username or
password.  Please try again.";
}
}
}
}

However, if I comment out the header and uncomment the echo statement,
then the cookie is added, no problem.  It seems as if the browser is
freaking out when there isn't any output after a cookie is set and a
header is sent.

I'm also having another similar problem with this function:

function auth($redirect_url) {
global $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS;

if (!isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['jackloren_user'])) {
header("Location: http://www.jackloren.com/login.php";);
//  echo "test";
} else {
$userinfo = explode(":",
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['jackloren_user']);
$username = $userinfo[0];
$userpass = $userinfo[1];
echo "$username | $userpass";
if (mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("select * from
`$cart->user_table` where username=\"$username\" and
userpass=\"$userpass\"", $cart->dblink)) != 1) {
redirectURL("login.php", $redirect_url);
} else {
echo "success";
// nothing
}
}
}

If I leave the script the way it is, the browser isn't redirected no
matter what I put in the header() statement.  However, if I uncomment
the echo statement, giving the browser some output, then the redirect
works fine.

Has anyone experienced this?  And if so, how do I fix it?  Thanks.

Re: [PHP] restore_error_handler() to default error handler

I'm not sure whey restore_error_handler() isn't working, but I have
something else which may help you.  When you use a custom error
handler your function will handle ALL errors, regardless of your
current error_reporting level.  To make your function honor the
current error_reporting level, put this line at the top of your
function:

if (!($_ErrorNumber_ & error_reporting())) return;

This will also allow your function to ignore errors on function calls
that you have prefixed with an '@', since the '@' temporarily sets the
error_reporting level to 0.

[PHP] Persistent global data ?

[Mathias Rockel]

Hi all !

I am currently writing some kind of Document/File-Library in a LAMP
environment.

As the library should be able to handle various file types, and most file
types have to be handled differently internally, I would like to use
Objects/Classes to make the code for the Library iself independent from the
stuff that is individual to the different file types.

Now I noticed early that when I use Objects in PHP and have to create many
for them each time a script runs it slows the system down considerably. It
seems you can now save objects in sessions which AFAIR was not possible last
time I tried. But then I would have to read the whole file index (which is
actually a tree) into a session variable for each user, and I don't know if
thats a good idea performancewise. It would be a rather large
multi-dimensional array.

So I would like to know if there is any possibility in PHP to create my own
persistent superglobal, a variable which can be read by any script running.
I think something similiar is available as the "Application" Object in ASP
under IIS. I know I have to take care of locking and stuff (although the
end-user scripts would only need read access to it), but if I could write
some functions which just would check if the tree is already in memory or
not (after a server shutdown or whatever), and if not just read it in from
the database to make it available in every other script.

The only thing I've found so far which I think may be a possibility is the
shared memory stuff that PHP supports, but I don't know anything about that
on the system level, and its not explained in much detail in the PHP manual.
Is that something I should follow, or can't I use it ? Can I somehow use the
underlying Apache ? Are there better options ?

any help/suggestions/hints are greatly appreciated !

[PHP] Re: Amount of data in the database

[Lars Olsson]

A pretty easy way of doing it is to add a size field to the table. 
Whenever you INSERT INTO or UPDATE the table, update this field to 
contain the size of the data for the current record. Then, whenever you 
need to check the amount of data for a particular user, just use this query:

"SELECT SUM(size) FROM sometable WHERE user=someuser"

Hope this helps


/Lars Olsson ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

PS. Ive done this in a file upload script I created a while ago. If you 
want, I can mail you the relevant bits and bytes. DS.

Re: [PHP] Re: Amount of data in the database

[Lars Olsson]

Hello again!

Basically...you can't. What I meant was that when you insert the data 
into the table, you need to store the size as well.

Consider the following table (called files):

dataID			user	filename	size	filedata
[int, autoincremented]	[int]	[varchar]	[int]	[blob]

Now, let's say user 3 uploads the file 'airplane.jpg' to the server. We 
need to have the following information:

$filename = The name of the file
$filedata = The actual file
$size = The size of the uploaded file

You can find out about how to get these variables from 
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php

Then you insert the data into your table;

"INSERT INTO files(user, filename, size, filedata)
	VALUES (3, $filename, $size, $filedata)"

This means that every time some user upload a file, the size of the file 
 will be tied to a particular record. Then you just use MySQLs built-in 
SUM function to find out the total amount of data (check my previous post)

Kindly

[PHP] data move, Please Help..

[Edward Peloke]

Ok, I know I have asked this question before and I have asked it on the db
forum, on asp forums, java applet forums,  searched google, etc but can't
really seem to find anything.  I have to come up with a way to move data
from an access db to the mysql db on the webserver.  If I have to, I can
upload the access file to the server and then transfer the data.  Are there
tutorials or samples somewhere of how to do this in php?

Best case scenario would be to come up with a way (using any tool, java,
activex, etc) to connect to the users machine and then upload the data
directly from there.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS,

date();
The first argument is the format specifier and the second argument is a
unix timestamp (ie, what mktime() returns).

Subject: [PHP] data move, Please Help..


Ok, I know I have asked this question before and I have asked it on the db
forum, on asp forums, java applet forums,  searched google, etc but can't
really seem to find anything.  I have to come up with a way to move data
from an access db to the mysql db on the webserver.  If I have to, I can
upload the access file to the server and then transfer the data.  Are there
tutorials or samples somewhere of how to do this in php?

Best case scenario would be to come up with a way (using any tool, java,
activex, etc) to connect to the users machine and then upload the data
directly from there.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS,
Eddie

Re: [PHP] Persistent global data ?

[Mathias Rockel]

Hi!

Yeah I know, but as I wrote below then I would need to put the complete file
library into each users session, which first blows that up considerably, and
scond probably is also slower as it is still read by each single script from
hard disk (session data file) and the objects are recreated ... what I'm
looking for is a superglobal which is actually never destroyed until the
server is shut down ... one that is in memory until I explicitely destroy it
... and that is available to each script that is run without the need to
create a copy each time ...

Re: [PHP] Persistent global data ?

[Mathias Rockel]

Hi all !

It seems I did not state exactly enough what I need ... if I use the
$_SESSION functions or write the stuff myself makes no difference, actually
then I can just leave it in the database and read it every time ... but that
is just slow ... I want to create it persistant in the system memory so
every script can access the contents without having to recreate the whole
tree each time ...

Danny is right. The reason you cannot depend on the Accept
header is that most browsers will include */* as an
acceptable type (which basically means the browser will
accept any type/subtype) and assign it the lowest quality
factor.

I cannot imagine a Web browser that will prefer Flash
(assigning it anything but the lowest quality factor);
maybe some Web developers should consider that when
designing user interfaces. :-)

It is not. However, a MySQL error is indeed output. Make
sure your query is successful.

My suggestion would be to simplify your code. Test your
queries independently of setting cookies and redirecting.
You have too many potential cases for error as it is, and
that makes things difficult.

> mysql_query("select * from `$cart->user_table` where
> username=\"$username\" and userpass=\"$userpass\"",

I'm not sure if it is just formatting or my eyes, but it
looks like you have backticks in your query. Also, you
should consider using single quotes around your values
rather than escaped double quotes.

> setcookie("jackloren_user", "$username:$userpass", time()
> + 2592000);
> header("Location: http://www.jackloren.com/";);

You should test this combination separately. Depending on
several factors, your cookie may not be getting set due to
the Location header redirect. The combination works fine
with most modern Web agents, but it has been known to pose
problems for developers.

No, the setting called "Open unrequested windows" is turned on in my browser

Re: [PHP] session_destroy problem

[Scott Fletcher]

Me too.  I alway try to avoid javascript.  I have one workaround to the
problem that keep me from having a headache with the browser
incompatibilities.  Since I already have a table in the database that deal
with the session number, timestamp and user id.  All I have to do is to
detect the duplicate user id and check to see if if user is online for no
more than 15 minutes by checking the timestamp.  If more than 15 minutes
then I deleted the existing session id then delete the duplicate user.  When
all goes well, then I create a new session id and insert it into the
database along with the user id and a timestamp.  And I do the manual clean
up of the leftover session in the /tmp directory every few weeks.  Not what
I would like to have but there's nothing I can do about browser
incompatibilities and javascript issues.  If we're lucky, this would take 20
years or more for the problem to be fixed.

[PHP] Data type issues

[Peter Hutnick]

I can't get my head around dealing with all the magic that PHP does to my
data.  I'm trying to do the following (in C++):

   char a = 'a';
   a = a + 13;

The resulting value of a is 'n'.  If I do the equivalent in PHP ($a = "a";
$a += 13;) the resulting value is 13.  I tried (int)$a += 13;, but that
doesn't make a difference.

Is there some "whole different way of thinking" I should be engaged in? 
Is there some way to make PHP add an int to the ASCII value of a single
character string (since there seems to be no char type)?


Thanks,

Peter

[PHP] Oracle and CLOBs

[Jadiel Flores]

Hi, I'm having a big problem with php and Oracle.

I'm using Oracle 8.1.6 and PHP 4.2 with the Oracle component in a Solaris 
server, I can not recompile apache and php to install the oci8 component 
and I'm having lot of problems with CLOBs, I'm receiving this error:

Warning: Ora_Exec failed (ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes -- while
processing OCI function OEXEC/OEXN) in
/var/www/espejo/includes/con.php on line 107

Line 107 contains this code:
Ora_Exec($this->cursor);

The query is:
SELECT Title, NewsDate, Content FROM inf_news WHERE ID_News = 5

Where:
Title is VarChar, NewsDate is Date and Content is a CLOB

It works fine if the query doesn't contain the CLOB field.

Any suggestion???

RE: [PHP] session_destroy problem

[Larry Brown]

For those who don't mind working with Javascript I have found a method of
maintaining the sessions to a minimum length.  According to the Javascript
list there is no way to get the url of the site the user is going to next so
there is no way to tell if the onunload is due to a site change or the
movement from one page on your site to another.  So here is my solution...

When the user logs on they are given a code that is derived from the time of
login.  Each pages checks that the decoded number results in a time of less
than 8 hours from login.  If it is greater than 8 they are just prompted to
re-login.  There will be a database entry for each time a page is loaded by
the same user.  This time is checked periodically, every 5 minutes should
do.  If they have not loaded a page in the last 5 minutes the session is
removed.  Now, each page that does not post anything will have a refresh set
to 3 minutes so that people that have their browser set to the site in the
background while they work on other programs etc. won't get kicked off.

This has just been arrived at to solve the session destroy problem but it
looks like it will work.  I also don't know what this would do to a high
volume site either but for me it should be workable.  I hope this helps
some.

[PHP] PostgreSQL Cursor ROWCOUNT

[typea]

Given:
PHP 4.x
PostgreSQL 7.3.x

In 'psql' monitor:
declare foo cursor for select * from humongous_table;
move forward all in foo;

The second query will print out a number which informs one of the actual
number of rows that are in the cursor's query's result set, if one were to
actually fetch them all.  I would like to get to that number in PHP.

Alas, as far as I can tell, there is to way to get that number through the
PHP API...

For sure:
pg_num_rows -- only counts rows actually "fetched"
pg_last_notice -- nope
pg_result_error -- nope
pg_result_status -- nope

No other documented functions seem appropriate, though I may have missed
one...

Re: [PHP] Re: Persistent global data ?

[Mathias Rockel]

Hi!

So this is the only way I guess ...

Do you propose to serialize() the objects in the tree and write that data
into a shared memory block, and then deserialize them at the beginning of
each script that needs the data back into objects ? I would think that that
would impose the same performance penaltys from creating the objects again
(this seems to be what slows php down), only the reading process ist sped up
... not exactly what I would like, but seems PHP provides no other
functionality ...

[PHP] Dumping Tables from MySQL

Another tip, please search the archives before you post. In 99% of cases your 
problem has already been encountered and resolved.

In cases like these searching the archives is a no brainer. Just plugin the 
error message and out pops your answer!

To execute shell commands from php use shell_exec() and friends.

Have a look at my wonderful script :) to use mysqldump to get yourself an 
email attachment of a complete database dump.

It's a very helpful script, if you put it on debug mode it checks all sorts 
of things about mysqldump, like the accessability, it finds the path (on 
unix/linux) and it gives helpful comment.
All support text is inside the file. 
http://www.hieris.info/over/backup/backup.php.txt

Pick out what you need. I would like to get a copy of what you do with it.


In case it turns out you do not have access to mysqldump i have made a hack 
on PHPmyAdmin to make it email the database as an atachment at a mouseclick.

[PHP] htmlspecialchars

[Foong]

Hi,
I wonder which is the better way to store data into database?
1. stor the data after we call htmlspecialchars with the data (means we
store " as "e; in database)
2. stor the data in non encoded form and call htmlspecialchars whenever we
want to display it.

[PHP] query question

[Kelly Meeks]

I've got an array of values, that I need to query against a database to see if any 
records have any of the values in the array - the array is a list of zip codes, and 
the database contains a list of stores.  Basically i need to find what stores have zip 
codes in the array.

I know that mysql doesn't support subquerys - is there a workaround for this kind of 
scenario?

TIA,

You need to read, very carefully, several times, the PHP manual section on
Type Juggling: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.type-juggling.php

>  I'm trying to do the following (in C++):

Well, in an expression involving the arithmetic operators +-*/, and their
assignment equivalents += etc, all values are automatically converted to
numbers first -- and the numeric conversion of any string not starting with
a digit is 0.  So in your statement

   $a += 13

the content of $a (="a") is first converted to an integer, giving zero, and
then has 13 added to it -- hence 13.

> Is there some "whole different way of thinking" I should be 
> engaged in?

Yes -- probably several -- but in this case I'd say the concepts of loose
typing and automatic type conversion which depends on context, as well as
the way in which the various types get converted from one to another.
Because automatic type-conversion is performed so frequently by PHP, there
is actually very little use for the cast operators, although they do exist.

> Is there some way to make PHP add an int to the ASCII value

> character string (since there seems to be no char type)?

You need ord() and chr() -- yes, PHP is not the most elegant language in
this respect.

(By the by, watch out for the behaviour of ++ and -- when applied to
strings, as it probably isn't what you'd expect from the foregoing: {$b =
"a"; $b++;} will result in $b containing "b"!  And even then it's not
straightforward or totally intuitive -- before you use this behaviour,
figure out why {for ($a="a"; $a<="z"; $a++) echo $a;} *doesn't* display the
letters from a to z!!)

Cheers!

This is more of a mysql question and should be asked on the php-db list if not 
the mysql list.

What you need is something like:

  "SELECT doo FROM dah WHERE dee IN('val1', 'val2', ..., 'valN'"

Option 2.

It mostly depends on what you do with the data. For example:

If you only store the data once (and never re-edit it) then use (1).

If the data is used for other purposes as well (like gets sent in an email) 
then use (2).

[PHP] --without-mysl in configure command

[gamin]

Pretty much of a newbie so please bear with the stupidity.

I have PHP 4.0.6 installed from rpm as part of RH 7.2. phpinfo() shows the
configure command having --without-mysql. But my php scripts seeem to be
able to run mysql commands happily.

Could anybody point out why ? Doin rpm -aq | grep php shows me that
php-mysql-4.0.6-7 is installed, maybe something to do with this.

Thank you

Yes, the last part is the imortant ;-) The PHP-MySQL-Extension was compile as 
shared extension. It is included in your php.ini file with a command sth. 
like extension=php_mysql.so

I've got an array of values, that I need to query against a database to see
if any records have any of the values in the array - the array is a list of
zip codes, and the database contains a list of stores.  Basically i need to
find what stores have zip codes in the array.

I know that mysql doesn't support subquerys - is there a workaround for this
kind of scenario?

TIA,

[PHP] Re: valid MySQL result resource

[Foong]

put the following line after you call mysql_query(..), you should be able to
see the error:

echo mysql_error();

this line is very handy to see what's wrong with mysql related operation.
Remember to delete it after debugging for security reasons

[PHP] PHP receiving e-mail

[David Russell]

Hi all,

I want to develop a script that can read an e-mail from a pop account,
and then perform actions on that e-mail based on characteristics of the
e-mail (e.g. header information, attachments, etc)

Does anyone know of a way to receive e-mails via php, and then to parse
them easily. My assumption would be that there should be a class out
there somewhere that handles it well.

Thanks

There is a small difference, if configured using --with-mysql=shared when 
running make it makes a php binary AND  the mysql.so. If congigured 
--without-mysql and then run make it makes only the php binary then you need 
to make the mysql.so yourself (cd ext/mysql; phpize; configure; make). But 
finally you'll get the same result.

There is a small difference, if configured using --with-mysql=shared when
running make it makes a php binary AND  the mysql.so.

How does it make mysql.so, using some code that is provided with the PHP
source or something that is already on the system (it looks for mysql on the
system) ?

If congigured
--without-mysql and then run make it makes only the php binary then you need
to make the mysql.so yourself (cd ext/mysql; phpize; configure; make).

I did not understand how to make mysql.so myself ? Not that i will be doing
this, but it is good to know and understand. Could you elaborate for the
benifit of a beginner. Thx again

This example should work on both, as it is a relative path.

Unless you mean you want all the mirrored servers to read off your ONE URL,
then you can include that whole URL (but I think that would defeat the
purpose of mirroring if they all read off main site)

[PHP] Authentication programming

[Jordan Elver]

Hi,
I'm about to start a new project which will require a login system. The system 
should allow for different types of access on a per page basis. I'm going to 
achieve the login system using sessions, which I have done before.

My problem is that I don't want to have to do much login checking on the 
actual pages within the system. I would like it to be included and handled 
oustide of the main application.



So, you set the permission for the individual page. I would also like to do 
this as a class, which I am not experienced in. I haven't found any very 
elegent solutions to this. Could anyone point out some urls or anything to 
show me in the right direction?

Cheers,
Jord

Re: [PHP] data move, Please Help..

[TomH]

From previous experience with this problem - the most 'relaible' method for me 
was to

(1) use the access/xls/whatever application to dump a CSV-type file
(2) upload the file to the appropriate location on your MySQL server
(3) write a PHJP script that use a standard LOAD DATA INFILE query.

From the MySQL Docs
-
7.15 LOAD DATA INFILE syntax

LOAD DATA [LOW_PRIORITY] [LOCAL] INFILE 'file_name.txt' [REPLACE | IGNORE]
INTO TABLE tbl_name
[FIELDS
[TERMINATED BY '\t']
[OPTIONALLY] ENCLOSED BY '']
[ESCAPED BY '\\' ]]
[LINES TERMINATED BY '\n']
[IGNORE number LINES]
[(col_name,...)]

The LOAD DATA INFILE statement reads rows from a text file into a table at a 
very high speed. If the LOCAL keyword is specified, the file is read from the 
client host. If LOCAL is not specified, the file must be located on the server. 
(LOCAL is available in MySQL 3.22.6 or later.)

  There really aren't any differences. Scripts that run on one, run on the other. The 
differences you are experiencing probably have to do with different settings. For 
isntance, you might have the error reporting level settings different. Or you might 
have register_globals set on in one and set off in the other. You need to check your 
php.ini files and make sure the settings are the same.

[PHP] Why is my URL encoding itself?

[Don]

Hi,

I have a PHP file that displays a form and submits for processing.  The processing 
script redirects to a results page.  I am using formmail.php to process.

In my PHP page, the FORM line reads as:
echo '' . "\n";

When I try in I.E., it works fine.

When I try in Netscape 7, I get a page not found error.  Looking at Netscape's address 
bar, it says:
http://www.lclnav.com/staging_area/login/..%5Cphpscript%5Cgeneral%5Cformmail.php

Why is it encoding my URL???

Thanks,
Don

This is something I refer to as Windowsitis. URLs use

Even if you're going to edit it, it's better to do htmlspecialchars()
when you save the data. You have to do it anyhow, when you place it as
the value of a text box.

$value = 'This is "the" value';

Now if you try to put that in a text box like this:



Then you'll have problems. Yes, you can use single quotes, but then what
happens when there is a single quote in the data?

The best way to do it is to convert the special characters when you save
it. The only exception to this would be if you ever want to use that
data outside of HTML (i.e. mail, like you said). 

Hope that helps.
