Deleting Old Database Entries
I'm trying to make a code that searches a database to check for entries that are 3 months old and then erase them. My problem is that I got no idea on how to make a variable that checks the current date so that I might compare it with the entry date, and also how should I make my If or While loop so that it works, I mean it's obvious that it must compare the two dates but how do this.

Deleting Entries
I have a some-what working blog for my web development class, meaning I can add and edit entries. Deleting entries, however, seems to be something way above my abilities. I figured deleting would be as easy as editing, and since they're similar, I'll describe my edit process. First I have a main view page. When one clicks "edit," it goes to edit.php?id=$id Next, edit.php uses $GET['id'] and then prints the subject in the subject field, the date in the date field, the blog in the blog field. When you hit submit, it sends it to the update.php Upate.php updates the database. My logic as follows for the delete page: From the main view page, one clicks "delete" and goes to the delete.php?id=$id Delete.php removes the entry. Delete.php gets a list of all the IDs. Delete.php sets the first ID to 1, the second to 2, etc.. Would I need four files for this? I'm attempting to put three queries on one page and I keep on getting unexpected variable ($query) errors.

Deleting From Sql Database
I have used this script I made to delete files from a server and simultaneously remove information about the file from a database. I have uploaded the same script to a new website and it no longer works. The file does get deleted but the database line doesn't get removed. I can tell where it's going wrong by the error custom error message 'echo'ed on the page ("your file was only partially uploaded"), but I really don't know why.

Deleting From Database
I have a PHP web form that pulls records from a database table. Based on the data in the table, the records are displayed with checkboxes that have a value that is equal to the record's ID. To handle this form submission, how do i detect which checkboxes have been checked? If this was a static form, I could handle it based on the name of the field but since the checkbox values are not static.

Extracting Database Entries
I have a non-profit's web site that wishes to allow their members to fill out information regarding summer camp information (name, contact info, mailing info, physician's name, etc) online and submit it. I can handle taking the info with PHP and putting it into a mySQL database easily. But what has me stuck is that they want the ability to print out hard copies of selected submissions (their choice) if they need to. Would I have to display all the database entries in a form on a new page with a select box next to each entry and have them pick that way, then loop through and print out the selected ones or is there a better, more direct (read: easier) way to accomplish this? Does this sound like something for which there may be a pre-written PHP script that can be altered?

(PDO) Database Entries Are Not Possible, Even Without Errorfeedback!
I am trying to insert with PDO-Sqlite rows through a form. I can do whatever I want, I don't find the sollution where I made the error. Perhaps somebody of you could help me?! However, the database is created with sqlite, and the entries should be done with PDO_SQLITE. However, no entries are done anyways and I am one step going nuts, specially because I don't receive no warning or errormessage on the screen. Code: <?php require_once('HTML/Form.php'); require_once('I18N/UnicodeString.php'); require_once('HTML/Table.php'); class Formular { private $ServerVar = array("Auswahl","Betreff","Eingabe"); function __construct() { $this->ServerVar["Auswahl"] = $_GET['Auswahl']; $this->ServerVar["Betreff"] = $_GET['Feld']; $this->ServerVar["Eingabe"] = $_GET['Eingabe']; $this->MeinFormular(); //$this->sqdb(); if(($this->ServerVar["Betreff"] === null) or ($this->ServerVar["Eingabe"] === null)) { $this->MeineDB(); $this->TextFeld(); } elseif (($this->ServerVar["Betreff"] === "") or ($this->ServerVar["Eingabe"] === "")) { $this->MeineDB(); $this->TextFeld(); } else { $Auswahl = $this->ServerVar["Auswahl"]; $Betreff = $this->ServerVar["Betreff"]; $Eingabe = $this->ServerVar["Eingabe"]; $this->MeineDB2($Auswahl,$Betreff,$Eingabe); $this->TextFeld(); }

I dont know a whole lot about PHP although Im learning and this is what Im trying which isnt working. if ($id > 100){ echo "<meta http-equiv=refresh content=1; url=http://www.mysite.com/blah>"; }

Comparing Database Entries
I have two table in a database, one with products one with reviews. The reviews are linked to the product via a unique id but I'm looking to write a script which can see if a product in the database has been reviewed or not but I hit a "coders block" . I was going to use a loop to see if the id in the review table matched any in the products table but I would prefer the script to only show the ones which haven't been reviewed and so that would not be the best way since it would chuck out a 'False' every time it didn't match up.

Show Last 5 Database Entries
I just set up a database with tutorials (id, title, description, image, url, cat) id is auto_increment, so the highest id should always be the last tutorial. I want to show the last 5 tutorials on a page, so I tried to use this: PHP Code: <?php include("connect.php"); $sql=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tutorials ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 0,5") or die(mysql_error()); $x=0; while($row=mysql_fetch_row($sql)) { echo ($x+1).')

Deleting Records From Database
I have another question about record deletion from database. For example, my database has 10 records with ids 1 through 10. If I delete id #10 then everything is good and all the records are still 1 through 9. However, if I delete record id #4, then in my db I would have records 1 through 10 with id #4 missing. Is there a command that syncs the database? How do I go about this to keep all the ids in the right order after the deletion? or What do I need to do to prevent that from happenning?

Deleting Database Rows
I have a form with a list of checkboxes, which are each filled with a date in the format 27012007, for example. The name of each of the checkboxes is the same as the date. Basically when the user presses the submit button I would like all rows in the database table "users" with the corresponding column "date" to be deleted when the form variables date correspond to those in the "date" rows. I think all the checked dates might also need to be put into an array.

Splitting Articles / Database Entries
Sometimes when I read websites they split their articles over multiple pages. Now that I'm doing my own site I'd like to do this with my lengthier articles. What I want to know is how people would approach this with respect to the PHP/mySQL side of presenting the information? How would you decide how many pages to split the article into and how would you actually split it so that the user can click page 1, 2, 3, or n ?

INSERT Adding Too Many Entries To Database
I have the following code to add an entry to my visitors table to track referers and what pages they visited, etc. $sql_ref_update = "INSERT INTO visitors (refdate, referer, refpage, refip) VALUES ('$refdate', '$referer', '$refpage', '$refip')"; if(!mysql_query($sql_ref_update)) die(mysql_error()); I just found that when I do this, where I expect one entry to the databasae, I'm getting three (two of which have are the same IP). I'm assuming that the second IP I'm getting might be a firewall or caching server but why two entries for the one IP on one visit? UPDATE: I found that one of the IP "visitors" is caused by the Google toolbar being on. I didn't know that the toolbar counted as a referer. Why is this? Is this well known because I didn't know about this until now.

Update Multiple Database Entries
I want to make a quick to-do list script. I can handle entering the info, etc. What I have a question about is when I go and view the list of to-do items, once they are complete, I want to be able to mark them "Done" So I'd have a list of all the items and a checkbox for each item. If 3 of 10 are done, I'd select the checkbox for those three, click the submit button and I'd like it to update one field for each entry. So, I'd have todo_ID, todo_DONE and want to UPDATE todo_list SET todo_DONE = 1 WHERE todo_ID = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['todo_ID'])."' My question is how can I do this for multiple entries all at once?

Using Checkboxes To Update Multiple Database Entries
I have a query that shows a list of options that a user can toggle on or off using a checkbox. query... form... while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))... <input name="menu_show_attribute[]" type="checkbox" class="checkbox"'); if ($row['menu_show_attribute'] == 1) { echo (' value="'.$row[menu_id].'" checked /> } else { echo (' value="'.$row[menu_id].'" />'); } The list is generated from boolean values in a DB. This populates my form with checkboxes, some are checked and others are not. I'm using an if statement to sort it (checked). This works fine. The problem is when the user un-checks a checkbox, the value does not get passed and the DB does not update - set/change it to 0. The only values that get passed are the checkboxes that are checked. Below is the query / code after the submit button has been pressed. Are radio buttons the answer? Any help / suggestions would be very much appreciated. //process form for ($i = 0; $i < count($menu_show_attribute); $i++) { if (isset($menu_id) == 'checked') { $menu_show_attribute = 1; } elseif ($menu_show_attribute != 'checked') { $menu_show_attribute = 0; } $query = 'UPDATE menu SET menu_show_attribute = "'. $menu_show_attribute.'" WHERE menu_id = "'. $menu_show_attribute[$i].'"' echo("<br>"); echo $query; $result = mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error()); }

Checking If A Value Is Not In An Array And Deleting Record From Database
I have been trying to figure this one out and have come up against a brick wall although I know it should be relatively simple. I have a form that passes an array to a php script from a multiple select box that is created dynamically. If a user deselects an item then I want to delete the record from the database but am having a big problem with it. The table in the dbase is quite simple with just three fields: id classid formid Basically, the form send through a classid and a formid value and I want to delete any records that have a classid that are not in the form array and have a formid which is passed as a hidden value. I suppose really what I want is to know how to see if a classid is not in the array that is passed.
