[PHP] Retrieving newly created ID from MySQL?

2003-03-26 Thread Ben Cheng
If I have a MySQL table with an auto-incrementing ID field, is there an 
easy way to retrieve the new ID after I insert a new row into the 
table?  For example, if I insert a row into a table with ID, Title, & 
Content fields, is there a way I can get the ID value without doing a 
separate select where the Title & Content fields are equal to the 
values I just inserted?

[PHP] Temporarily turning off magic quotes?

2001-02-24 Thread Ben Cheng

If I have magic quotes turned on for post/get/etc. in my php.ini, is 
there any way to temporarily turn it off for one page?  For example, 
I have a preview page inbetween my data entry page and the page that 
actually saves to db.  I don't want magic quotes turned on when going 
from the data entry to the preview page since all quotes keep getting 
backslashed.  Is there a way to do this?

[PHP] Escaping double quotes?

2001-02-24 Thread Ben Cheng

How do you escape double quotes?  I have the following which is 
supposed to make any " in a string into \" but it doesn't seem to 
work.  What's wrong with it?

$tmp_string = str_replace ("\"", "\\\"", $tmp_string);

[PHP] Retrieving data from multiple select list

2001-03-10 Thread Ben Cheng

I have a select box that allows the user to select and submit more 
than one selection at a time.  How do I retrieve all the selections 
in PHP?  For example, the select list is named CategoryID.  But when 
I select more than one item and then hit submit, $CategoryID only 
shows me the last value of the selected items.  How do I see all the 
values that have been selected?

Re: [PHP] Retrieving data from multiple select list

2001-03-11 Thread Ben Cheng

Yeah I saw this in the online manual but is there any other way of 
doing this that doesn't require naming the select box in HTML with a 
[] at the end?  Cause I have another button that calls a JavaScript 
to select all the options within CategoryID[] and it doesn't seem to 
work cause it's looking for a CategoryID[] array instead of a select 
box named CategoryID[].

P.S.  Please send responses directly to my email address as well

[PHP] Targetted redirection?

2002-03-13 Thread Ben Cheng

I have a page within a frame that uses Header() to redirect to another page.
However, I don't want the redirection to take place just within that frame
set.  I want the page that it redirects to to cover over the frame.  Is this
possible?

2005-03-31 Thread Ben Cheng
Hi I'm using the mail() function to send email and I know it's failing 
because it's returning a false but how do I tell what problem is?  Is 
there an error message that I can grab that will show me why the 
function is returning false?  Any help greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
