[PHP] New User of PHp/Mysql..
Ive been using Mysql/PHP for a short while - I sent this messaghe to a big
PHP group (not enough users though) about a week ago - No reply...
Can anyone help..
PS - Slingshot.co.nz doesnt have PHP - its just a text file.. - Save to your
own SQL server & test, Or just review the code - No viruses or anything..
Thanks.

Ive been learning MySql for about 1 week now - & joined a MySql
group - but some questions I ask are more PHP related & not directly
involving MySQL..
anyway, for my big test script, Ive got the above URL
Just 'view source' to view the PHP scripting language...
when running, it searches your databases & brings up a list of active
databases.
When selected, it brings up a list of tables within the database..
(those two functions are ok..)
Now - in the script, - near the top, it says :-
if ($action =='tables'){ <<< (start of problem area..)
Now - when you select the table, it displays all the names of each
column, within the table. (that part works..)
it has :- $tot=$i; - $tot now holds the number of columns in that
table - For my example on my PC, it held the number '17' which is
correct.
it now has 2 'loops'...
a) for ($count = 1; $row = mysql_fetch_row ($query_result_handle);
++$count)
b) for ($counta = 1; $tot; ++$counta)
Loop a, loops through the 4 rows of the database.
Loop B, displays all (17) of the colmns for each row...
Now - Problems
1) When my script runs, it is VERY fast - Doing things normally.
- EXCEPT - when it comes to the 2 loops.. - it goes Very slow - I
realise its got to do 2 sets of loops - but its going at a much
slower rate than if i did the same loops, on another programming
language.
2) It only displays the 1st row of my data.. - For the example
database i tested, I knew it had 4 rows.
problem questions :-
a) Is my looping correct - Or can anyone find a loop-hole / problem
in my programming. (Im not telling you if the pun was intentional or
not.)
PS - Ive now realised something, & changed my line from :-
for ($counta = 1; $tot; ++$counta)
to
for ($counta = 1; $row = mysql_fetch_row ($query_result_handle);
++$counta)
- now my script is really fast - However it doesnt show much of the
1st line of data :-(
PS, the uploaded one (URL above) - doesnt show the change - as yet..
Can anyone advise what im doing wrong ?

As far as I know - ALL cookies set by a particular server - can be read & re-set by any programme / process on the same server / website.. So your ASP script could read your PHP cookies & vice-versa.. I'm just learning PHP, & dont know cookies as yet (I use Perl/CGI for cookies) & have no experience at all on ASP... I'll suggest to try a small PHP & a small ASP page, & try & set/read the cookies. G. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Sub groups ? - Programming structure...
Hello, - I'm used (in years gone by) to the Qbasic programme, where i can create 'sub' routines, & view each routine on its own - Without reference / Viewing the other code.. (I think its good like that..).. I know in CGI/Perl - you can use sub-routines etc... 1) Does PHP allow sub-routines, eg - I can send values to the routine, & it processes it & does whatever it requires & returns to the spot where I called it from. 2) For those of you that know Qbasic & know what i mean, is/are there any programmes out there that can allow you to view / see any sub-routines in Perl and/or PHP one at a time, & list them .. (I hope so) - Good, but not necessary.. G. (time for bed). -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] This Group....
Hi there Got PHP going :) - ok - Is this the correct group to ask ? Or can anyone suggest another group / forum for newbie how-to questions.. BASICALLY :- Ive been programming in HTML / CGI (Perl) for several years, & have only 'briefly' done PHP.. - At work, Someone wants one of my CGI scripts to convert to PHP... Ive only discovered this forum a few hours ago - & have for the last 2 days/nights been trying to figure out how to get PHP going / running (on my home server).. (its Sunday Morning here)... Anyways, Can someone point me in the right direction to some tutorials ( & *EXAMPLES* ) to do the following functions (or point mer to an appropriate forum - see above).. :- Open a file & insert into an array/variable. (im trying to figure that one out now - get file-open errors).. (& close / flock etc... - not sure if flocking is on PHP ?) :- turn a variable (split it) into an array.. :- Loop through an array - & display a line IF it matches another variable etc.. I think those 3 things are good starting points - I think I'll learn fast - But just need pointers to the usage / PHP commands - That I know I can do in Perl.. Thanks G __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[PHP] String Length ??
Hi there
I'm new to PHP (as some may know)...
ive spotted / Found the answers to 2-3 problems
tonight - By looking through the PHP documentation..
but this problem is perplexing..
Ok - Ive got a FORM - Which basically, I put lots of
text into it (For testing purposes, I go to news
websites & copy entire articles).
The PHP script chops up the paragraphs - into one long
line of text (one line per paragraph..), & its in an
array $text.
Ok - I loop through the array, & all the text is how
it should be - displaying properly..
PROBLEM :-
Now - All I want to know - Is how long each line is -
(eg number of characters - Ive already removed
double-spaces & its now single-spacing (if any)..)
EG - Is a line 34 characters long, 127, 945 ?
Ive looked through the PHP 'Functions' & the PHP
'documentation' for "length" (couldnt find anything..
??)
Ive found this command :-
http://nz2.php.net/strlen
Which seems perfectly fine...
Ive got this code (without the === signs)
===
foreach ($text as $color) {
echo "SAF '$color' - ";
echo "".strlen($color)."\n";
}
===
the SAF is only for my reference - See it on the
screen..
QUESTION :-
Is this the right code to use ? to find the length of
each line ? ($color) - No worries - Ive just copied
code from the web..)
PROBLEM :-
It looks fine - EXCEPT when I see a 3-line paragraph -
& the PHP code is telling me its over 1,200 characters
long..
(assuming 80 characters per line, 100 AT MAXIMUM) -
thats only 240 -300 characters...
If the paragraph were 1200 characters - That would
need 8-10 lines of text...
So - Im asking here (see above)... - If Ive got the
correct code / Command...
Thanks for the help...
