How To Change A Number Entry In A Database
I need to change an entry in a database and I don't know how...they said..i should use update..but still ..it's all too vague for me... See, I need to modify a function which deletes ads. The ads are grouped in one table aptly named "ads".

Now, in a seperate table "category" is where I have saved the total number of ads in a record aptly titled = "total". These two tables have two things in common, they are joined by the category number=catid

Now, my problem is that whenever somebody deletes an ad. It just does that. It deletes the ad in table "ads". Now I need to change the total number of ads ("total") in table "category". Please do tell me how do i do this?

PHP Devloping A Post Variable Name With A Database Entry
I am developing a regisration page that will present a set of check
boxes to the viewer. This list of checkboxes is developed from a list
in a database so the amount and names of the boxes will change. This
portion works just fine.

The page content has a user name and password along with several sets
of these checkboxes. All the form content of this page is presented in
one form.

The problem:

I want to store the values presented in these checkboxes back into the
database based on what the user selects. The data will be stored in a
table that has the id for the user and the id for the checkbox item.
As anyone knows, checkbox's only send a boolean value through POST so
once the data is sent it is nearly impossible to test for its value
and work on it since these are dynamically presented.

What I mean by dynamically presented is that the list is pulled from a
database. The checkboxes are build as such: <p><input
type="checkbox" name="{$row['name']}">{$row['name']}</p>. $row is
the reference to the database result set that has been affected by the
row_assoc function.

Since I have no idea what the contents of $row['name'] will be. I
cannot use isset($_POST['checkboxname']) to test its value as you
would normally do. As I see it 'checkboxname' is just a string and so
it seems logical to me that this would work:
isset($_POST['$row['name']']), but it doesn't.

My request:

I need to be able to check to see if the checkbox is check like such:
isset($_POST['$row['name']']) so I can check the value of
$_POST['$row['name']']. What is the correct way to run this check if
it is at all possible? Or is there another way to do this or a more
effective way to do this?

Pre-selecting Options In Html-form According To Database Entry
I've got a html-form consisting - among other fields - of several drop-down-boxes and radio button groups. With this form you should be able to either create a new dataset or to edit an existing one.

If the latter is the case, my application should propose values (the ones which are already in the database) and write them into the input-fields. My problem is, it should have the according options pre-selected and the checkboxes checked, and I've no idea how to do this.

(Example: I've a dropdown box for languages, and my dataset says the language is English, then in my dropdown box the option "English" should be preselected when this dataset is to be edited).

Database Manager Using Internet Browser

Getting IP And Browser Information Into MySQL Database
I created a very simple form and a MySQL database to see if I could get the information submitted from the form to the database, and also a copy of the form submission emailed to me. I have managed to do that with the help of a few online tutorials.

Now, I would like to collect the IP address and browser type of the person submitting the form and have this information transferred to my MySQL database, along with the other form field information. I would like this information to be submitted to columns in my MySQL database labeled "ip" and "browser" respectively. Code:

Inserting Data Via Browser(textarea) Into Database
I just wanted to make something that creates html-code which should be
inserted in a mysql database.

The user should type text in a textarea. When the user submits the data,
all enters should be translated into "<br>" and it would be nice if the
user could also insert links ( "<a href="..." ) in the formular.

Does someone knows a good, very simple script? There are wysiwyg editors
on the net, but I don't need to modify fonts, colors et cetera. The most
important thing are the "<br>" tags which should be generated.

Browser Sees Jpeg Served From Database As Bmp
I have been struggling with this problem for a while and using search extensively has not been very fruitful, so I decided to post this here. I am making a database driven image gallery and practically everything works - I upload a jpeg as binary data to a database and can display it in a browser.

However, I intend for people to be able to point to the jpeg image and use the "save as" option to save the image as a jpeg. The jpegs are high quality and quite large, since it is intended for the press to be able to use it in their publications. However, when I right-click on the image and choose "save as", the only option that IE gives me is the .bmp format. Opera, on the other hand, tries to save it as a .phtml file that I use to output the image.

It does work if I manually force Opera to save it as a JPEG, but IE will only save it as a .bmp. Does anyone know how to tell the browser that it's a jpeg image?

Display Results From A Database On Multiple Pages
I am new to PHP and Mysql but am really determined to learn these techniques. I have some script that reads and displays results from the databse onto a page. However, I really wish to limit the number of results that are displayed to 10 per page and then have the next/privious links under the results. With these results, the results under the email field should be hyperlinked so that the person viewing the results should double click on the email link and send the person an email. How can i do that? I have to learn this technique.

Submit/Approve/Display Content In Database In PHP?

Display Links From Database, Constructs And Expressions
My users need to enter links into a MySQL text field (along with their text) to a file on the server.

For example; the file <a href="somefile.pdf"> somefilea is really big.However, I also want to calculate the file size for them.

I've used some of your code to do this, <?php getFileSize('somefile.pdf') ?>, so that the user would enter their text as; the file size <?php getFileSize('cover.pdf') ?> is really big.However, I've been told that putting PHP code in the database field is both problematic and requires the use of eval().

But, I've also been told that I can use something like:
the file {link:somefile.pdf} is really big.Then, when the text appears on the page a script looks through the text and constructs an html link from the text {link:somefile.pdf}.

But ... how? What would that script look like, any clues?

Limit A Database Field To Displaying Only One Time And Still Display All?
I have a data table with a field that contains the exact same text (example "some text") on several different rows. How can I display all my rows without getting duplicates of this field; I only want to display this field once. I tried to use a LIMIT, but this is not what I needed. Code:

Display Database Output In Mutli Column Html Table
I am building an HTML form using data from a mysql query. The data to be displayed on the form is 1 column from the db - but multiple rows. Because there are many rows (well, only about 100+) in the table I want to be able to put 2 or 3 (space permitting) rows from the result on each row of the HTML table with a checkbox beside each entry from the db table. The idea is that the user will scroll down the list and check up to 4 or 5 boxes before submitting the form and I didn't want them to have to scroll ALLLL the way to the bottom (100+ rows). I understand how to get data from a db table and put it into an html table, but I cannot figur out how to put more than 1 row from the result on to the same row of the html table.

I hope I haven't confused anyone reading this -- If I am way off base with what I am trying to do please give me alternatives. I am trying to avoid paginating the data for a couple reasons a) clicking a next and/or prev button is more hassle than just scolling down a list and b) the data in the column being displayed is only about 35 - 40 characters and it seems to be if i only placed one result row on each html table row, there would be a lot of wasted space.

No Array Entry Vs Null Array Entry
Consider this statement related to Fields sent to PHP via an HTTP POST.

$A = $_POST["FieldName"];

If the page did not have a form field with FiledName, the result is
that $A is empty.

If the page DID have a form field with FieldName, but the field was
left empty, then $A is empty also.

How should I test $_POST to distinguish between these two conditions.

Mail() And An MX Entry

XML Trouble - Delete Particular Entry Tag
Dear All

I have an xml file of the following format

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<contacts>
<entry uri="sip:vinayg@...">
<name>Vinay</name>
<sip> sip:vinayg@... </sip>
<Number> 9885821530 </Number>
</entry>
<entry uri="sip:vivek@...">
<name>Vivek</name>
<sip> sip:vivek@... </sip>
<Number> 9885821530 </Number>
</entry>
</contacts>

I need to device a function to delete a particular entry tag. Please
note that the entry tag is an array. Hence I need to device such a
function

deltag("abc.xml","sip:vivek@...")

which will remove only the entry tag with id vivek@... and
result in

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<contacts>
<entry uri="sip:vinayg@...">
<name>Vinay</name>
<sip> sip:vinayg@... </sip>
<Number> 9885821530 </Number>
</entry>
</contacts>

I tried the following code but its not working.

$userfile = new DomDocument();
$userfile->load("test.xml");
$pt = "entry";
$temp = "sip:vinod@...";
$suser = simplexml_load_file("test.xml");
$count = 0;
foreach($suser->$pt as $val) {
if ($val[uri] == $temp) {
$userfile->documentElement->removeChild($val[uri]->name);
$countt--;
}
else
echo $val[uri];
$countt++;
}
$userfile->save("test.xml");

Newsscript, Last Db Entry First, First At The Bottom ?

Random Entry From Mysql
I am trying to select a random entry from mysql. Anyway - My version of mysql doesn't have the built in rand() function, so I am using PHP's. Anyway - I wrote the following function...

function displayguide(){
$rand = rand(10,202000);
connect();
$query = "SELECT *, $rand as random FROM guide_rotater ORDER BY random LIMIT 1";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$this = mysql_fetch_object($result);
print "<b>$this->title</b><p>$this->description<p><a href="$this->url"><b>Read the guide</b></a>";}

Anyway - it works, the only problem is that it uses the same $rand number for all of them so it isn't random I can't think of a way to do this using php's rand function.
