Retrieving Database Info Based On User
I'm still quite new to php and mysql but I have been unable to figure this out. I'm attempting to display a specific row and column from a mysql database based on the user.
$result = mysql_query("SELECT fbleague FROM users WHERE username = $_SESSION[username]");
fbleague is the column
users is the table
username is the primary key column
$_SESSION[username] is the username variable
Then later I try to display it with
echo "You are in league $result ";
I know $_SESSION[username] is set correctly because I can display that with no problems.

Retrieving Info From A Whois Query
Can some one give me a little step by step to put me onthe right way.. I'd like to use PHP with Postresql. I need to make many whois query on the domain names that we own, to store the information such as expiration date and so in our DB. I was thinking of : using php to open the url of the query, retrieve the new web page with ftp mode, parsing the page with some "expression régulieres" and then uploading the found data in my DB... Can you tell me what you think of that, is there any way to be quicker and easier, and maybe some advice on how to retrieve and parse the file.. because I dont really know how to..
Retrieving Specific File Info...
Ive got a file which contains the following data: <option value="13">African Nations Cup XXV</option> <option value="16">asd</option> <option value="7">Champions League</option> <option value="1">English Premiership</option> What Id like to do is get the maximum value, so 16. Ive used file_get_contents to bring the file into a string, but now Im stuck getting that max value out. Unless theres a function for this, I believe the direction I would need to take is collect all value numbers using some string manipulation function, throw them all into an array, and just get the max value of the array. Is there an easier way?

Sorting Color Swatches Based Off From RGB Info.
I am trying to figure out a way to sort a series of different color swatches into a color wheel type sequence (Reds, Oranges, Yellows, Greens, Blues, Violets...) based on their RGB color information. I know how to get the information I need, and I know how to display the information I need...I just can figure out the best way to sort the individual RGB datasets without doing it manually (and with well over 400 of them, I would rather not do it that way). I've checked through the gd library to see if I could find anything that might work, but unless I am missing something - that is a dead end...so I am thinking maybe there is an equation which applies to RGB color coding that would work, it is just not something I know of.

Get User Info From Myspace/facebook/bebo Using CURL
I'm making a social networking site and I'm looking into an easy way for people to get signed up. Was just wondering if this was possible: Could a user put in their Myspace/facebook/bebo username and password then a script would remotely connect to the site and grab their user info and avatar etc? We're thinking that this would make it very easy and simple for people to join up, as they don't have to enter all that information again. I presume I'd be using cURL for this. Would their be any obstacles in my way?

Get And Insert Info Into Database
I have one table (form) that has multiple fields. Here are few fields we need to know: ID, NAME, CITY, STATE, PROFESSION, x, y, z (x, y, z means more than 50 fields that give me more information about each name). The ID and NAME are unique and they don't change (each name has it's own ID). A NAME and its ID can be in any CITY, STATE or PROFESSION but this is fixed. That means if ID# 123 for Mr JOHN is Austin, TX, that will stay in Austin, TX for ever. I have more than 5000 NAME and it's ID, 9 professions, all US States and all Cities in my database. Here is what I need to do: I want to have a form on my site that my visitor finds his name first and then enters more information about him/her that will complete my database fields of x,y,z. What I'm thinking to do is to create a drop down list that the visitor first selects the profession. Based on the profession the second list shows the states that has that profession. Then by selecting the state, all the available cities will show up in the third list, and by selecting the city all the names related to that profession in that city, state will show up and he can select the name from the forth list. Then he enters other required information about him that will be send and saved in the database. Here is what I have done and I know to do so far: I have created the database with all the information in one table. I also know how to send data to database to be saved. But my problem at this point is how to create this list selection that narrows the search to find the right person.
Populating A Form Wth Database Info
I've coded a piece of code which populates a form with data read from the database: $connection=mysql_connec ("localhost", "f2821842", "f2821842"); $result=mysql_select_db("QUERIES"); $query=mysql_query("Select * from Emp_Details where emp_num = '$employnum'"); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($query)) {$empname=$row['emp_name'];} <form name="webregform" action="webadmin2.php" method="post"> <input name="requiredname" type="text" size="30" value="<?php echo "$empname"; ?>"> </form> When I echo the $requiredname, I get spaces and no data, and I know that $empname is not a space-it does read a value in a database. 1. How can I get $requiredname to print a value?
Ordering Info Returned From Database
I have a PHP page on my site which pulls back info from my MySQL database and displays it in a table under appropriate headings.

Session Variable Info To Database
I have a 2 page form. The first page page of the form POSTS to the 2nd page which, after being filled out, should send all the information (from pages 1 and 2) to the database. I have created a session variable and have placed it at the top of the 2nd page. For brevity´s sake I have placed only one of the variables in this example: <?php session_start(); $_SESSION["sessanimals"] = $_POST["animals"]; ?> After filling out the remaining variables on page 2, I want all the information (the info from page 1 brought over in the session variable and the info from page 2) sent to the database. I tried creating an INSERT RECORD on page 2 but only the variables on page 2 are subsequently sent upon submission. How do I get all the info into my database?? Here are a list of my questions: 1. Is there any way of creating one session variable for all my page 1 form variables (I have 20+ variables)? 2. is there a way to denote ALL the variables in = $_POST[]; or do they have to be listed separately? 3. How do I post all the data from page 1 and 2 into my database at once?

How To Obscure Database Info In PHP Pages
I'm moving from Cold Fusion to PHP and I have a question that none of the books I have answers adequately: In Cold Fusion, database connection parameters like the table, username and password are configured on the server. Since they are at the backend, nothing is exposed on the page except the queries themselves. In PHP, from what I see, the database info is on the page. Is this not a security risk? How can one be sure that this info is not on the page sent to the user?
Database Or Flat File Based?
I'm writing a news script, where I can write articles and have them outputted on my homepage. What I'm wondering before I start is; does anyone have any advice whether something like this would be better of stored in a database or flat files?

Validating Form Info Before Inserting It Into Database
I have been trying to create a PHP application where you can add customer contacts to a MySQL database. Now, my problem began when I created a form where the user can add in a customer's name and info to the database. In an effort to alert the user that they may be adding a customer that is already setup in the database, knowing that some of the customers may have the same names, e.g. there is more than one Bobby Ray Brown, I decided to add a script that queries the "customers" table in the database and searches for all results that match the input from the user. Code:

Sends SMTP Mail From Database Info
I've got this script that I want to use to send SMTP mail from a form that allows the user to select recipients from a dropdown list that is created using database info and send a message. Two of the selections in the dropdown list are groups. My script works fine when the user selects only one recipient. I run into trouble when the user selects one of the two groups. The message ends up getting sent numerous times to the people in the group. I received the message 9 times. I think the script is looping more times than it should. Does this make sense so far? Here's the script that receives the form data and connects to the DB to get the recipient email addresses and then sends the message: Code:

Uploading Info From A Text File Into A MySQL Database
what would the PHP and SQL code be to say basically: make a new row and put this in the field, what comes after each comma goes in a new field, and each new line should be a new row.

I have in mind putting the image names in a database and will use those names to create links, likely output as a table or drop down menus in a form. I specifically wonder if there is any way to "dynamically" create thumbnails in PHP from the full image? Alternately, are there any programs out there for "batch creation" of thumbnails?
