Using Nl2br Repeatedly
I've got a text column in a table in a database (no this is not a database problem) that gets updated via an HTML form and a PHP script. I use nl2br to deal with carriage returns entered by the user. This works fine. If I view the updated record directly in mysql, I can see the <BR>s that have been inserted and the record displays perfectly on my website. The problem arises when the user attempts to change the record again. When it is saved, PHP once again replaces each carriage return with <BR>. I therefore end up with too many <BR>s. I hope I'm explaining this properly. My guess is that there must be some way of stripping the original <BR>s out before doing a subsequent update. Am I right, or is there some other solution?

Outputting Mysql Data
I have some information I wish to pull from a database and display in spreadsheet like format. I'm querying our db to find apps from a date range that were assigned to a rep, then total up the number of apps per month the rep was assigned and totals per rep over the months. The problem i'm having is getting the data to output into columns. I'm sure it has a simple solution but it's eluding me. Here is an example of the data should look like on the webpage. ¦ month 1 ¦ month 2 ¦ month 3 ¦ Total name1 ¦ 2 ¦ 2 ¦ 2 ¦ 6 name2 ¦ 2 ¦ 2 ¦ 2 ¦ 6 name3 ¦ 2 ¦ 2 ¦ 2 ¦ 6 Total ¦ 6 ¦ 6 ¦ 6 ¦ 18

MySql - Outputting Results In Groups

Outputting Unique Rows Only From Mysql Db
I'm working on a simple image gallery and I need to allow users to sort images into galleries they create. I'm using a dropdown to allow them to choose from galleries they have already created. Here's what I'm using: $result=mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT * FROM media WHERE username='$username'"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ //show existing galleries echo "<option>"; echo $row['gallery']; echo "</option>"; } Here's my problem (if you gurus haven't discovered already):D: Even with the DISTINCT clause in the select statement, I still have it outputting EVERY images gallery name into the drop down.(Sorry if that's not real clear. If you don't understand, I'll be glad to attempt to explain it in another way)

How Many Records Can MYSQL 4.1.14 NT Via TCP/IP Can Hold?
how many records can MYSQL 4.1.14 NT via TCP/IP can hold? how many records per table can MYSQL 4.1.14 NT via TCP/IP can hold? how many records in a table can MYSQL 4.1.14 NT via TCP/IP can hold given the table has a field Primary key - BIGINT(20) autoincrement? need your opinion..Here are the facts: MY system is an internal one. My Server--Is only a Desktop.. Celeron 2.8 Gigahertz, 40Gig Baracuda HD, 512 MB memory.. And it serves an average of 20 users a day and it also serves me for my system development..The average records inserted per month on mYSQL is 10,000 records..We foresee that system would be used for about 10 years.

How Do Iterate Through MySQL Records And Displat Them?
Basically I have a page where a person can choose from a list of stories posted by people, or they can choose to submit their own. I've managed to do the page where they can submit their on. The way i did this was to set up a mySQL database, and table in the database called stories. I then made an id (primary key), author, title, body and date field in the table. When the user submits their story its given an id (which increments on each submition) and their author, title and body fileds are sent to the database. The date key is automatically stamped in. Ive also managed to have the submition page display what they submitted by using the count(*) function, their story would be the last to be submited , so it pulls that from the database and displays it. Now what I want to do - on the page where they can pick a story, is have the page connect to the database and grab each record and display the author and title on the page next to a radio button. And have the id for the story in a hidden field or variable so when the user to chooses a particlar story it uses the id to grab the story from the database. So how do iterate through all the records in the database, and display each one?

Problems Updating Records In MySQL With PHP
Sorry to ask what is probably a simple answer, but I am having problems updating a table/database from a PHP/ PHTML file. I can Read From the Table, I can Insert into Table/Database, But not update. Here is a copy of the script I am using. I do not know what version of MySQL my host is running nor do I have Shell Access to it.

Sensible Method Of Inserting Records In To MySQL
I have users using a third party windows application. They can export data from this application directly to a text file (CSV). So far as I know, there is no way to make this application talk directly to the MySQL server. We're talking thousands of records here - it's not practical to have an HTML form handled by PHP which inserts the data to MySQL... or is it?? What I thought about doing was to have them export the data to the CSV file & then upload it to the web server using FTP. Once uploaded, I would have them go to a page with a PHP script which would run the command to import the data to MySQL. PHP can run shell commands, as I understand it from the manual. Perhaps this would be a bitch on Windows, though. Code:

Changing Data In Objectified Mysql Records

However if I do this: $listing = new Listing; $listings = $listing->retrieve(array('row > 1') ); foreach ($listing as $aListing) { $aListing->address='xxxxxxxxxxxxx' $newArray[] = $aListing; } foreach ($newArray as $aListing) { print_r($aListing); } I see the update values in $aListing->address .

If the record is equal to "limited" i want to display different results and they must show after all the records which are equal to "full".

Outputting XML From PHP
Today I decided to teach myself both PHP and XML ... so I decided to make a little address book. After I finished it I found this: http://www.tonymarston.net/php-mysql/sablotron.html which describes more or less what I did. The main difference is that users are able to add entries into my address book. When an entry is added I get all of the address book info as post data. I take this data then print out a whole new xml file. Is there a better way to do this? Right now 95% of the PHP I wrote saves a new XML file ... the other 4 lines transform the XML with some XSL and displays the results. I suppose Im too used to working with databases where I can (more or less) write "Insert Whatever into AddressBook"
