PHP Will Not Read More Than 4096 From My Microsoft Sql Text Field.
I have a textarea that is saving to a mssql text (very large) field. The insert, update is working fine. However, when php reads the data using mssql_result function, I'm getting limited to 4096 characters read by php. I know that there are at least 6000 characters and I can see them using microsoft's query analyzer. This is not a magic quotes, single quote, quote, html entity or anthing like that. PHP will not read more than 4096 from my microsoft sql text field. Any ideas how I can get php to read more?

Read And Display Japanese Text From Text File
I posted a question regarding reading japanese text from a text file. Well, since I solved the problem, I thought I'd post my solution for the benefit of other people with the same problem. The plan was to make a script to read and display japanese text. I will use it for making a japanese proverb script and for a japanese language study script. Method : I wrote a simple kanji text file (saved with UTF-8 encoding) I wrote a simple PHP script to display the file contents (saved with UTF-8 encoding) I specified the content-type header for the HTML page : <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> *** All files have the same encoding. *** UTF-8 supports japanese characters. and it works! this is my PHP (and HTML) script : <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>PHP : Japanese Text File Read : Exercise 1</title> </head> <body> <?php $filename="japanese.txt"; //open file $fp = fopen($filename,'r'); //loop through each line in the file while($line=fgets($fp)) { //output current text file line print $line."<br>"; } //close file handle fclose($fp); ?> </body> </html> I know it's a very simple script, for testing purposes only. It displays the contents of the japanese text file line by line. The key was to save all files in the same encoding (I used UTF-8) and to specify the encoding / charset in the HTML header (<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">)
Quickly Adding Text To A Mysql Text Field That Is NOT Empty
Is there a way to insert text into a mysql text field that already has text into it; without having first to extract the existing data and append the new text to that string variable and then insert the new string. Basically i'm looking for a way to do it with a single query not 2 (one being a select to gather existing data).
Read Mssql Field Type From Php
this question is 50% mssql and 50% php. To get field definitions and other informations for table 'myTable', I use with sql server: EXEC sp_help myTable The problem with php is this command returns several result sets, and informations about field types is not in the first one. If I query mssql from php and fetch result, I only get informations about the first one, and php completetly ignores the other one. Is there a mean to read other result sets, or is there another sql command that returns field definition?
$_GET Won't Read My Hidden Field
I am trying to include a dynamically changeable file in my website with PHP and Javascript so I am using a hidden field to hold the name of the file I want to include, and I am using the$_GET function to read the hidden field, but it says the field has no value even though I have a default value in the field.

Text Returned From DB Gets Cutoff When Placed In A Text Field
I have a string that contains an apostrophe or a quotation mark, stored in a DB. I can retrieve the data, and display it properly (for editing) in a textarea, but when I try to put the string in a text field, it get's cut off right before the questionable character. For example: $string_in_database = "John's car." -displays correctly here <textarea><?php print $string_in_database ?></textarea> and displays this - John's car. -gets cutoff here <input type='text' value=''<?php print $string_in_database ?>' /> and displays this - John I've tried adding slashes and stripping slashes and I just can't figure out what I need to do.
Q: Read Text With VBA From A PHP Web-page
I created a page on our intranet that shows a number and that increases for every time the page is opened. It is similar to a visitors-counter. When I look at the page with Internet Explorer it works just fine. Now I want to read this web-page from a MS-Word macro and include the number as a company wide unique id in my MS-Word document. Unfortunately, the PHP script doesn't update the counter when I call it from my MS-Word macro. How can I force PHP to update my counter when I call it from a VBA macro? I am using the following code:
How To Read HTML Email Text?
I've done a couple of hours web-searching without turning up many answers so far, and I guess I could figure it out (eventually) from the MIME format, but here goes with my question... I don't have any problems reading text emails, but can anybody direct me to some PHP source code that will read (the text inside) an HTML email, specifically the "From", "Subject" and especially the message body? I would like the code to be able to differentiate between (i.e. know that it is) a text or an HTML email, and I would like the code to ignore any attachments. I don't expect the incoming email to have any (or large) attachments, but I hope that any code samples can handle the possible case of big attachments coming along for the ride. Incidentally, if I did (not this time) want to handle large attachments, can PHP and/or servers handle megabytes of data being read into a string variable through fread()? I'm just getting into this stuff, and not sure of what areas would be a resource and/or performance hog.
Text File Read / Write
im trying to make a poll that uses a text file for storing totals, and...well its not working. I have a text file with 5 values seperated by semicolons, like 1;2;3;4;5, and that file is poll1.txt. If I supply the script with an option, it will succesfuly read and show the contents of the file, but when I try to change one of the values and put it back, it fails. It writes to the file with loads of black squares and more semicolons than are in the $newresults variable. Follows is the incorrect code:
Read Text File And Store In DB

Read Line From Text File
I have a text file that i would like to use PHP to read from. each line ends with a. I need to read from the beginning of the line, only upto that: right now i'm using this, which is sloppy and slow: if ($chr = fgetc($file)) != "") { } which of course reads in one byte at a time till the end of line. is there a better way?
Read And Write To Text File
I am trying to do a simple thing: read a line from a text file and write this line to another text file. The problem is: when I write the text into the new file there is an empty space between each characters. EG my original line is abcdef and the result is: a b c d e f . I tried and tried, searched google, but I am stuck... How can I read line n from one file and write it to another file exactly the same?

Read From A Text File, Output To Browser In Japanese
I am trying to store data in a text file and output it to the browser using PHP. All very easy - if I was using English! the problem is, I want to use Japanese and I'm finding it a tad difficult to get PHP to understand. I have two files, a text file containing data to display and a php file with a script to display the data. I can get the contents of a text file displayed in English, no problemo, but in Japanese, it's another story... All the correct settings are enabled in the php.ini file for Japanese language support (mb_string, input_encoding, output_encoding settings etc..etc..) even if I save the text file, to be read from, in Shift_JIS encoding - I still can't get it to display normally! here's the script I'm using to read the text file : <? $filename="test.txt"; $fp = fopen($filename,'r'); while($line=fgets($fp)) { //output text file line print $line."<br>"; } fclose($fp); ?>
Validate Text Field
This is very simple in javascript but I can't seem to find the exact solution in php. I have searched the forum but couldn't find my exact example. I have "page1.php" with a <form> that includes one text field and a submit button. Once submitted the data in the text field would be entered into the DB. I want to make sure that before the <form> is submitted that there has been some data entered into the text field. I have seen the function --- empty() and I have also seen if (!$textfieldName) all coupled with <? PHP_SELF ?> in the action field of the <form> but it just doesn't seem to work for me. I think that it doesn't work because the page that I am entering data in the text field is also inserting data to the DB from a previous page and the <? PHP_SELF ?> is conflicting with this----(Just speculating).....I don't know I am kinda stumped.

Make Text String Read From Right To Left In Imagettftext() Function
I want to write a text string from right to left instead of from left to right with the imagettftext (); function I read in teh manual that the angle variable controls this, it says that 0 angle means left to right, so I tried 180, 360 but nothing happens What angle do I need to put it to get it to write it right to left I am writing a hebrew text string with a font.ttf that supports hebrew characters <?php $white = imagecolorallocate($background, 255, 255, 255); $fontfile = "davidtr.ttf"; $string = "מחלדגכ"; imagettftext($background, 12, 360, 3, 17, $white, $fontfile, $string); ?>
Validating TEXT Field Entires
Because I have several TEXT fields in my MySQL database, I need to know how to validate that only alphanumeric characters have been entered -- as this data will be echoed back to the user upon completion of the form. Therefore, I need to prevent any malicious text from being entered into the form (SSIs, HTML formatting, etc.) Is there any way to do this? So far, I've only been referred to addslashes(). I've managed to use the following function: function validate_text($text) { $text = addslashes($text); return ($text); } $input_text = validate_text($input text); But this only escapes single and double quotes with the slash. URLs, SSI statements, etc. remain untouched.
TEXT Or BLOB Field Problems
When I use a form and php to input long articles (in a TEXT field) into a mysql table, the code runs smoothly (i get a thank you message). However, the record isnt always put into the table. If I input only the varchar fields into the form, then it works. But if I also try to append the TEXT field then it doesn't work from a web form. It works sometimes but not all fo the time. Why does this only work sometimes, do i have to do something witht he code? change the database?

Increment A Text Field In A Form
I am creating an intranet which shows active projects and allows people to add new projects. If users want to add a new project, they fill in a form but what I want the form to display in the ProjectNumber field (which is a var char field & not the primarykey) is the last Job Number incremented by 1. For example if the last ProjectNumber was TS0014, then the default value in the ProjectNumber field should be TS0015 - this way users know what the next job number is. At present, the last job number in my table is TS0014. Below is the code i'm using but for some reason in the Job Number field in the form Im getting TS001? WHY? Code:
Text Field As Date (MySQL)

Form Field Text Output
How can I get html code in an editable form field to display properly? Specifically: I have text that is echoed to a form field via <? echo $text ?> The user can then edit that text and submit. However <BR> is showing up as a literal <BR> and should be a linefeed. Is there a way to have this display properly? Example: LINE ONE<BR>LINE TWO should display as LINE ONE LINE TWO Note that this is only a problem in the form field. It displays properly when echoed outside of the form.
How To Get Un-escaped Text From A Form Field
I have a php script that gets the text from a form field: <?php include("global.inc.php"); pt_register( 'POST', 'test1'); echo $test1; ?> The text comes back fine, just some characters (', " and ) are now escaped (', " and ). The problem is that I need the he text to be exactly as it was entered by the user. I could process the text myself, and replace the escaped characters, but I'd like first to understand why this is happening and if there is a way to disable this behavior and get the unmodified text directly.
Text Field, Dates And Insert
The user types a date (dd-mm-YYYY) in to a text field, the date is checked against a regex and if it passes, is then inserted to a database. For some reason inserting the date ($this->input->post('date')) directly in to the database gives the default for the field (0000-00-00). I've tried doing date("d-m-Y", $this->input->post('date')) but get 1970-01-01 or something like that. Do you have any advise for converting the text field input in to a format that can be inserted in to the database?
Removing URL Link From Text Field
How can i remove a URL link from a form text field or the area where results are posted when a user enters http://www.mywhateversite.com. For example, here on this site. I want to allow the text, but not the link. If you guys are familiar with myspace and have tried to put a link to another site, the myspace site automatically changes it to something else or blank. Thus allowing the user to post the site url, but without the link.

Text Field Eats Up Multiple Words!!??
I pass a variable in my url which is let's say two words separated by a space. now if i just echo($variable) then i get both the words as they are.. separated by a space... but on the other hand if i put that same variable inside a text field.. i.e <input type=text name=bla value=$variable> i get only the first word of the variable e.g. $variable = "hello there"; displayed normaly i get: hello there displayed inside a text field i get: hello i tried using different things like urldecode/urlencode/rawurl blabla/ the best i could get to display was a hello+there so is there any solution to displaying $variable as it is inside a text field.. by the way it displayed fine if i use a textarea but i need to use a normal text type input.

How To Sort A Flat Text File By A Particular Field
I have created a flat file database to store contact information on my friends. The fields are 'firstname', 'surname', 'job title', 'address' etc What I am trying to do is be able to display a sorted list of my friends based on a particular field eg 'sort by surname'or 'sort by address' etc Each row in the file ends with a '' and each field in each row is separated by a ' '.

This is how far I have got but I am now stuck as to where to go from here? I have read the php manuals but it does not appear to improve my understanding of what needs to be done. Code:
