Suggestion Needed On Data Storage Format In Text File
The project I am developing doesn't involves database. I want to parse the mailbox file (.mbx) and store the summary in the text file for fast retrieval and display of information in the Inbox page. The sugegsted format are as: #1 ID [4 bytes]: Subject [100 bytes]: To Address[100 bytes]: From Address[100 bytes]...etc... #2 Instead of preassining fixed size to variable (as actual data may be much less or can grew to more), we can store the values continuously, seperated by some unique seperator (#|#, *#*, ...) 1324#|#Hi, How are you#|#me@google.com#|#you@google.com#|# ... and so on Which of these will be the efficeint one (as there will be frequent insert/delete/update of the individual information, eg. set message as read ..., delete message ..., new message ...) Also please suggest on how to determine the variable size (100 bytes as in #1), and assign the size to the variable accordingly and read it (differentiate multiple variables) when required.

Data Format
I'm building a site for a client, and the access database they've given me wasn't formatted in any specific way. I've converted the database to MySql, but I'm running into a problem with one of the fields. The field contains a list of items that I'll need to output to a list when processed by the script I'm writing. The problem I'm having is the list of items wasn't formatted in any special way. Other then entering all the data by hand, does anyone have any ideas on transforming the data in the field to an array? There are 700+ records and I really don't want to have to edit each one by hand unless it's a last resort. Format Example: Item1 Item 2, continued Item 3 has 6 - parts Item 4 has 7, parts

How To Pull 1 Line Of Data From A File? NO MYSQL
I have this file that has 2 lines in it. Heres how the files looks. file: fbddata.lbn line1:uncle1234562 line2: As you can see, on line 2 there is actually no data but the file still seems to have a 2 lines. But when I pull the info from the file using the "include" or "require" command it just pulls the 1st line of data. BUT..when I try to use the "include" or "require" php commend within a HTML link code like this.... <a herf="www.mysite.com/Lavishphpfreak/<?php include("fbddata.lbn" ?>/ilovephp.php>LINK[/url] it gives me a link that this... http://www.mysite.com/Lavishphpfreak/uncle1234562 /ilovephp.php now did you notice the code that was added to the link. I have figured out that its doing this because of the blank line 2 thats in the fbddata.lbn im trying to pull the data from. Of course the easy way to fix this would be to just go into the file and delete the blank like 2 but i can't do this because i dont have permission to edit the file. Its created using "root". So does anyone know of a php code that will just pull the 1st line of data from within a file. I can't use mysql cause this is NOT in a database..and plus I haven't advanced to databases yet.
Data Format In Application Or Database?
I have found that by far the easiest way to store dates in my LAMP application is in a text string in the database in Unixtime format.

Processing Form Data And Emailing It In Html Format
I have a form that when submitted it just sends a regular email in plain text with all the information. However I would like to be able to format the email so it is more organized with a table that contains the submitted information.

It works and looks like this: $sql = "INSERT INTO table VALUES(....now())"; On another php page to view results, the code: printf("<br><td> %s</td>", $newArray["datetime"]); makes it looks like: 2005-02-15 14:44:51 I want it to look like: Wednesday 15th of January 2005 05:51:38 AM but when I try "date("l dS of F Y h:i:s A");" I get the format, but with the CURRENT time.

Format Text File After Fopen
I use “fopen” to access the text file (this is working fine). Then I want to format the results. I tried “fgets” but there is a “return” after each entry in the text file. "fgets" thinks this is a new record and puts the data on the next line. How can I bypass the "returns" and use the file as is. Example of the text file: Sold_To_Name............: XXXX XXXX Ship_To_Name............: ZZZZZZZZZ Sold_To_Address.........: XXXX XXXX Ship_To_Address.........: ZZZZZZZZZ Sold_To_City............: XXXXX Ship_To_City............: ZZZZZZZ Sold_To_State...........: XX Sold_To_Zip.............: XXXXX Ship_To_State...........: ZZ Ship_To_Zip.............: ZZZZZ Sold_To_Phone_Number....: XXXXXXXXXX Ship_To_Phone_Number....: ZZZZZZZZZZ This is how I would like to format text: Sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXX XX XXXXX XXX-XXX-XXXX Ship to ZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZ ZZ ZZZZZ ZZZ-ZZZ-ZZZZ This my current programing:
