Code Returning False Mysql Result
I'm working on code which will allow users to "rate" something, for instance, on a scale of 1-5. When they click on a star (1-5), it sends them to the following PHP script, with ?rid=&rating=
rid is the id of the item they are rating, and rating is the integer 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. Problem is... even with an empty db table, it returns "Rating added successfully." - but doesn't add anything. If I add a row with uid=1 rid=2 and rating=3, and am logged in as uid=1, it still says "Rating added successfully.", and does nothing. It SHOULD HAVE updated the existing row and told me so. Code:

Returning 1 Result From MySQL
I know the usual way of receiving results from MySQL, useing a while loop e.g. $sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE email='joe@hotmail.com'"; $result = mysql_query($sql,$connection); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo $row["firstname"]; echo $row["lastname"]; echo $row["email"];} BUT, if I know they only 1 result is going to be returned, is there a way to do this without using a while loop? So if I only wanted to get only the firstname of the person with email joe@hotmail.com. can I do this without a while loop or do I have to use one?
Script Not Returning Correct Numerical Result
I am working on a script to calculate returns on bets. This involves entering odds, stake etc. The problem I am having is with adding a new element into the calculation. In betting their is something called a Rule 4. This occurs in some races and diminsihes the retrun but there is no need to go into details. Basically, here is how it works: There is a race with odds of 2/1 and a rule 4 of 20 cents is in place. With the betting rules this means that the odds must be multiplied by 1 - rule 4. In this case the rule 4 is .20 so 1 - .20 = .80 You now have to mulpiply the odds by .80 We only multiply the first number os in the case that is 2 (for a 5/1 bet it would be 5 etc) .80 * 2 = 1.6 is the correct answer. This calculates ok in part of my script but when it gets to the second part on the same page it is returning 1.28 instead. PHP Code:
Returning Value While Still Executing Code
Anyone know of a way to return data to a browser and then continue processing code. For example in classic ASP they have: <% Response.write('THE BROWSER CAN SEE THIS'); // sending final response to the browser Response.end; // this will still execute even though the browser no longer is waiting for a response my_function(); %> I would like to immediately return a value to the browser and then run cleanup code without the browser having to wait. When I use the exit() or die() or return() functions in PHP it will end the code right at that point which is great because the browser gets a response back quickly but the remaining code never gets executed.
PHP-MySQL: Returning ID When New Record Is Made?
Let's say I create a new record in a table like this: mysql_query("INSERT INTO table (col1) VALUES ('example')",$conn); ....that had an auto-incrementing, unique identifying column named "ID" that would be populated with a unique number upon insertion... How can I get the unique number it assigned to that record returned for futher use?
MySQL Query Not Returning All Results
I have a user table in the DB, for example: +---------+----------------+-------------------+ | uid | username | firstname | |----------+----------------+------------------+ | 1 | cobby | Andrew | | 2 | admini | test-account | +---------+-----------------+------------------+ If, in phpMyAdmin, I query: SELECT `username` FROM `users`; It will return results correctly (cobby and admini, respectively). But if I make a simple PHP script, such as: <?php mysql_connect('localhost', 'cobby', 'dbpass'); mysql_select_db('testdb'); $query = mysql_query('SELECT `username` FROM `users`'); print_r(mysql_fetch_assoc($query)); ?> It only returns: Array ( [username] => admini ) Why does it only return the second result? I have a feeling I'm doing something really silly, but I looked over this test script and its got me stumped.
MySQL Query Returning Empty Column
Here's my code: $query_get_machine = sprintf("SELECT machines.ID, machines.NotifyID, machines.Name, notify.ID, notify.`Data` FROM machines RIGHT JOIN notify ON machines.notifyID = notify.ID WHERE machines.ID = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_get_machine, "int")); Can anyone tell why the notify.`Data` column might be returned empty? All others display as they should.
Error Using Header("", FALSE) To Show Multiple Images From MySQL Db
Many people seems to have problems when displaying multiple images from their database (mySQL db). Often you can read error statements like "Header already sent out ...". To solve this, people often propose to use include files. To keep the scipt it would be nice not having this problem, being able to sent out multiple headers to a browser without getting these error messages. In the PHP4 manual, we can read an option that can be added to the header statement, Header("xxx",FALSE). It would enable multiple headers to be sent out. For instance the following statement: while ($product = db_fetch_object($result)) { header("Content-type: pv($product->filetype)",false); echo pv($product->image)" } However, it doesn't work. Anybody has any idea why? Does anybody use this option FALSE with success?

MySQL Result Resource
I want to build a function that, depending on the input, will either return the results from a MySQL query or do something else and return one of several messages. My problem is checking the return value to see which is returned. Is there a php function that checks a variable to see if it is a valid MySQL result resource? I looked through the manual and couldn't find anything.

MySQL (DB) Result Sorting
I'm doing is taking results (fetching rows) from my mySQL database. But what I want to do is sort the results according to last name. So basically the table structure looks something like this: id (primary key) fullname A example rows could be: 1 John Smith 2 Mary Jane Now what I want to do is sort the results in PHP based on last name. I'm using the Pear DB for connecting to my mySQL database. Based on the example rows I gave, Mary Jane would go first, and then John Smith. How would I go about doing this? I was beginning to split the result based on spaces, and the last word to explode, but how would I truly do this?
Modifying MySQL Result - But Not The DB
How can I modify a MySQL data set returned by mysql_query? I am basically doing a while loop over the rows, changing one field, and then doing a mysql_data_seek back to the beginning of the set before returning it. However, later calls to mysql_fetch_assoc still return the orginal data, meaning that (I assume) I am changing a copy of the data rather than the result set itself. Taking the reference (i.e. $record =& mysql_fetch_assoc($result);) did not help. I have read a large quantity of the posts in the php.net site, googled, and read my PHP books - but have come up short on this one. Yes, I know it's better to simply modify the DB. However, I'm working with an existing code base which is very complicated, and want to cherry pick one very well tested feature by making a change in the result set only under special circumstances.

Result From Mysql Into Foreach?
when using mysql_fetch_array($result) I usually toss that into a while loop like so while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ... } however I was wondering if there was a way to put it in a foreach statement like so foreach(mysql_fetch_array($result) as $row){ ... } Is that legit? Will this work?
Linking To A MySQL Result
I had it the other day but now altered the code for my real database and it stopped working.

Date Formatting From Mysql Result
always in the past I have done my date formatting from the query like so: DATE_FORMAT(dateField, '%W, %b %e, %Y') AS realDate I have tried formatting the straight date result with PHP like so: having fetched results with mysql_fetch_array, $newDate=$result["dateField"]; $formattedDate=date($newDate, 'm/d/y'); This doesn't work and simply returns the unformatted date as it is stored in the database.

Replacing Array With Mysql Result
I wanted to repalce the following line of code $data = array(40,21,17,14,23); with for($i=0;$i<$numrows;$i++) { //print(mysql_result($result,$i,2));print("<br>"); array_push($data,mysql_result($result,$i,2));} where mysql_result($result,$i,2) is the value and when i print it displays the values. But $data array is the Y axis value for drawing a chart. Here I wanted to replace the hard coded value with values from mysql but the second code does not function. Does anybody have idea how can I replace the $data array or what may be the problem with my coding The first one works but the second one does not work but in both cases it does not display any error.
Same Mysql Query Doesn't Always Return A Result
We have no access to a mysql NG on my provider's server, so we ask here: We have a long query (long in text) with a UNION between 2 select. We have been informed that some times the query doesn't return any result. We have tried on our server and we always get a result. BUT, trying on the hosting server, many times the query doesn't return any result and doesn't get any error. Any idea ? does Union have any problem ? how to check if the query failed ? My hoster said that sometimes the table can be locked (if the server is overloaded) and then mysql doesn't return any result, but this seems to me an aberration. the query takes about 0.0050 sec to execute when it doesn't return any result, and 0.030 when I get results

Mail A Set Of Addresses From A MYSQL Result
I'm populating a field in MYSQL that collects email addresses for a certain topic and saves them like this: mail1@mail.com|emailaddress2@mail.com|email3@email.com - Basically what I'd like to do is explode the data, and set up a mailer from PHP that informs each of the addresses individually that there has been an update to the topic. I *don't* want each of the mail addresses to be visible to all the recipients on the list, so simply inserting the data into the TO: field won't do, because then all the addresses are visible, causing security concerns. Code:

MySQL Result Can't Be Returned From Class Method.. ?
I've been messing around with objects and classes lately and can't figure out why this wont work. I have index.php which uses the pbMySQL class (pbMySQL.class.php) and methods: Code: include("lib/pbMySQL.class.php"); $db = new pbMySQL; $db->pbMySQL_open("localhost","user","pass"); $db->pbMySQL_useDB("database"); // $q=$db->pbMySQL_query("SELECT * FROM pbn_news ORDER BY id DESC"); $q=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM pbn_news ORDER BY id DESC"); if(isset($q)) { while($row=mysql_fetch_array($q)) { print $row['name']."<br> "; } } else { print "query returned FALSE"; } $db->pbMySQL_close(); My problem is that when I use the first query method (which is commented; uses the pbMySQL_query() method) I do not get the mysql result returned, but if I use the same query without the method, I get the result. Here is the method from my class: Code: function pbMySQL_query($query) { if(!isset($this->conn) || !isset($query)) { print "Error : argument(s) missing.<br> "; } else { $this->query = mysql_query($query,$this->conn) or die("Error : query failed.<br> mysql said: <i>".mysql_error()."</i><br> "); if(isset($this->query)) { return $this->query; } else { return FALSE; } } } The method returns FALSE and I don't understand why. Is it something in particular I have to do different when using a class?
Error Message - 0 Is Not A MySQL Result Index
Could anyone explain what this might mean? Warning: 0 is not a MySQL result index I have a simple form set up where a user types in a keyword and then a page is displayed based on the keyword. See below: HTML page: <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <form action="submitform.php3" method="GET"> <p><strong><font face="verdana, arial, ms sans serif" size="1">id#</font>:</strong> <input type="text" name="keyword" size="15" maxlength="25"> <input type="submit" value="Go!"> </p> </form> </body> </html> submitform.php3 page: <?php mysql_connect ("localhost", "username", "password"); mysql_select_db (dbname); $result=mysql_query("SELECT $url FROM table WHERE keyword LIKE '%$keyword%'"); list($url)=mysql_fetch_row($result); ?> The concept is really simple. A user types in an keyword and that page is displayed. There is a database set up with a table that has two columns. One is "keyword" and the other is "url" For example row 1 the keyword is abc, and the url is http://www.abc.com.
How To Get Mysql Query Result Into Temp. Txt File
I did a lite search in the archive but didn't find anything specific to my problem. Here is what I am trying to do: I've got a table with about 25k entries of company addresses. I need to be able to pull specific data out of the table and put it in a temporary text file and then display the result in the browser for the user to save locally. The query part and the format of the data is all simple enough but I am having trouble figuring out how to get the data from the query into a temporary text file and then displaying that file. here is what I whipped up but it obviously doesn't work: Code: <? $tmpfname = tempnam("/path/to/file/", "FOO"); $list = mysql_query("select * from FH_LIST where State='AK'"); while ($list_results = mysql_fetch_array($list)) { $data = blah blah blah; fwrite($tmpfname, ".$data "); } fopen($tmpfname, "r"); fpassthru($tmpfname); ?> I get an error message saying: Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource (referring to $data).
Setting A Maximum Limit On A Php/mysql Result?
I am using PHP and MySQL to do this script. I want to have a table that contains only numbers for data and then add them all up as a result to display and that I have accomplished with no problem and then I want to display a percentage of that number to the public however that also I have accomplished with no problem using round()... The problem is I am trying to set a maximum number that it displays. I want it to display 1-500 no matter what the number is or the decimal it may have is provided it doesnt exceed 500 but once it does I want it to display 500 as the limit so even if it is say 674 I want it to only display 500. How would I go about doing this? The sql I am using for the adding is SELECT SUM which works just fine and I am using round( $total_number *.15, 2) to display the percentage number of 15%.
