What Is Indexing In Mysql And How It Will Be Useful And How We Can Retrieve Database Content Easily From A Database Table Containing About 5lakhs Datas
I need to select data from a database table containing huge amount of
data. Now I am storing data using one primary key and I am just using
simple select statement, and this process gives me the output but it is
taking long to execute the query. As much I had heared I want to use
some indexing or cluster indexing which might help me but I am not so
familiar with these things.

When To Store Content In A Database Table?
When developing a website in general when should I choose to put content in a database. For menu options, settings, and listings like products it seems to be clear for me to put them in. But the main content (article for example) should I put that in a page or in the database. More in general, when would it benefit to use a database and when not. Does anyone know a good tutorial or do you have advice concerning this.

Looking For PHP Solution To Adding Content To MySQL Database
I have recently used aedpro to quickly make pages for my client to be able to /add/edit/delete/view all/ content in their MySQL database. Though these pages work, they are limited to an all-or-nothing type view within their returned record pages. You can't sort the edit or delete pages to find your information quickly/easily, you have to scroll through all the records to find your record of interest. The database contains over 2000 horses, so scrolling to find a particular horse takes too long. Or, when trying to edit a horse's record, or group of records, you have to scroll to find the record(s) instead of being able to type in the record's horseID number and then go just to that record or group of records to edit. Do any of you gurus out there know of a PHP based MySQL database management system that you have used that is both flexible in its use and easy to install? I have Googled, but nothing is coming up but CMS type systems, which we don't need. Perhaps I am calling this something it is not, thus I can't find it. Any help or direction appreciated.

Link Indexing / Database Script?
I've been searching forever to find the right free script for my website. I want to make article/link database on my gaming site... here is an example... Click me. I want it to function nearly exactly the same as this (but I'm aware this is done in asp) I want user to be able to add to the database & rate the article/link (with a 5 star rating if possibe) and add a comment/review (again if possible) Many large sites seem to use the same kind of system... so there must be one out there! I want to use the database for my links page. Also I have pages were I have written articles... I want to add "user articles" underneath... which will show a catagory from the database. So I'd say the script would come under the catagory of link indexing or reviews/ratings... or database lol The reason why I need it in php is because my pages contain php include commands, that include news from my forum... If I used ssi to include instead what scripts could I use then? Seeing as I'm having no luck finding a php script I can use. One last thing... I would need to be able to edit the design... so it will fit nicely into my site.

Retrieve Php Content From Mysql
I am relatively new to php however I am working on a site and appear to be getting on quite well. Most of my pages are coded in php and work fine however what I would like to do is be able to retrieve my content from a mysql database. The set up is as follows: Database contains several fields, but for this example I will only require the Page Name and the Content fields. In page name I have the page name i.e. whatson.php and I then have the entire contents of the page that I worked on in my editor pasted in to the Content field. I then create a basic php page that makes a connection to the database and just searches for the page I want i.e. whatson.php and stores the result in a variable called result. I then echo out result but for some reason it just displays the php code and does not appear to have interpreted it, can anyone help?. Sample code is below:

MySQL Table Or Better New Database
I have a large database, which is used only in part. Therefore I want to place the records that are not so needed in another place. The question is: Would it be better to place those records in a new database, or just another table will be enough to take weight from the mysql? Which way would be faster?

Putting An Array In A Mysql Database Table Field
I want to insert an array into my database but i've got a problem with it. Before i insert the array into the dbase i check if everything is in the array with print_r($array). Everything that should be in the array is in there so i insert it into the dbase. When i check my dbase with phpmyadmin the field that should contain my array has the word array in it so i assume the array is in the dbase. But when i retrieve the data from my dbase and check my array with print_r i get the following error: Warning: Argument to array_values() should be an array in.

Valid MySQL Database/table/column Name Regexp
regular expression in PHP which could be used to check that a proposed (My)SQL database/table/column name is valid, i.e. shouldn't result in an SQL error when created? The user of my (hopefully to be opensourced) program has the ability to create database/table/column names on the fly. I'm aware of obvious characters such as ., [space], things like >, etc., which won't work, but haven't been able to source a definitive list, including having googled the MySQL site. Obviously certain characters need to be filtered out, as noted above, but I want to be as unrestrictive as possible; hence just [a-z]* isn't good enough because things like _ are acceptable. Ideally, I'd prefer a regexp that applies to _all_ vendors' databases, not just MySQL as I'm about to migrate the program to being database-independent, probably using PEAR DB, but even a MySQL-specific regexp would do the job. In the longer term, I plan some sort of entity conversion script so that theoretically any character could be used, using some sort of escaping mechanism probably.

Cannot Retrieve Database Entry When Digits Are Part Of The Link
I have been trying to figure out why a link such as: /my-link-1234-test.html is not picking up the database entry, which is "my-link-1234-test" BUT when the database entry is my-link-one-two-three-four-test.html the entry is found without any problem when clicking on the link. The issue is related to the digits since when the link does NOT include digits, it all works fine. I wonder if the issue comes from my php SQL filter, which looks like this: SELECT * FROM article_content WHERE articletitle LIKE '%%%s%%' I have tried to edit the "%" characters in many ways but still no luck. Any help would be appreciated since I cannot figure this out.

Compliant Database Content
I'm making a website using valid XHTML strict. The webpages validate, except from the text content that comes out of the database. There's quite some characters in my text (such as " ’ ") that don't validate because they aren't coded with the right character entity. I'm using php's htmlentities to parse the text that comes out of my database, but clearly a few characters don't get encoded. How can I bypass this problem?
