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

MySQL Query Result Rows
Still learning the ropes of PHP/MySQL here so pardon if this is something from a 101 class. I am wanting to know if/how I can query a MySQL database, pull two rows of information and assign them individual variable names. I know this isn't too clear. Let me try to explain what I want to do. Let's say I have something similar to this: Code: $query = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT entry_id, user_id, date FROM my_entries WHERE user_id = '$user_info[user_id]' ORDER BY date DESC LIMIT 2")); What I would like to be able to do is assign separate variables for the info on the two rows returned by the query. I want to have the following variables: $first_date = $query[date]; <= from the first row $second_date = $query[date]; <= from the second row I can then use the two variables to compare to each other, etc. Can this be done with a single query? Or are two queries required (if so how)?

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).

Can I Put A Mysql Query Result Directly Into A Multidimensional Array?
I have two joined tables: Departments - which contains the department description and a key Positions - which contains position data What I'm attempting to achieve is to display the department title in one table cell and then list all the positions associated with that department in the cell under neither the title. I need to generate a table two column table with as many rows as required, depending on the number of departments, which is dynamic.

Grouping Results Of Query
I'm brand new to PHP (just starting today to convert tons of ColdFusion/Access code to PHP/MySQL). There is a function in Coldfusion that I can't find an equivalent to in PHP. Here is what I am trying to do: If I have a query that results in this information: State Firstname Lastname Idaho Terry Pratchet Vermont Dan Brown Vermont Bob Smith Virginia Alice Johnson Virginia David Jones I would like to output the info like this: But all I can find in PHP is a way to loop through the query and show every row... if you are familiar with Coldfusion, what I am looking for is something similar to this: <CFOUTPUT GROUP='State'> #State#<BR> <CFOUTPUT> #Firstname# #Lastname# </CFOUTPUT> <BR> </CFOUTPUT> Is there a function that does this in PHP, or do I need to write code that watches the value of 'State' and manually takes care of things whenever it changes?

MySQL Grouping Events By Date
I am using MySQL with a flat table exported from another dB to create a simple event calendar in Dreamweaver MX 2004. I would like to have the events grouped by date and ordered by date and time. I have been unable to figure out how to group by date while preserving all the records. I have tried using GROUP BY in my SQL statement, but this reduces the number of records returned. I have also been trying, without success, to use loops and if statements to suppress the date from repeating after the first record.

Complex Query Involves DATES
I have an application I am writing that involves DATES. I need to know a few things, so I can get this thing working right. How can I Code my page to display a week at a time? I want to do this without hard coding in dates. Bascially, I want to list weeks such as Monday, Jan 1, 2007 - Jan 7, 2007 and the next line would be the next week. Is there a way to do this that is accurate? How can I then pull a bunch of rows from a table in a mysql database utilizing a field of the type "DATE" that corresponds to the dates in the week? Let me explain this better here - I want to get ALL entries that are between Jan 1 and Jan 7. How can I do this? I have tried the BETWEEN operation in a where clause, but it is not working the way I thought it would. here is the SQL Query that I am attempting to use (and only returns 4 of the 18 entries that fall within the dates set. SELECT * FROM journal_entries, items WHERE (items.item_number = journal_entries.id) AND (journal_entries.date BETWEEN '$startDate' AND '$endDate') ORDER BY journal_entries.date *** Note *** $startDate and $endDate are set in the script in this format - "2007-01-01". journal_entries.date is of the "DATE" type.
