How To Delete MySQL Database.
I've got three hostings with the GoDaddy hosting service. The hostings are supposed to provide only one MySQL database each. I've just recently noticed in the phpMyAdmin program that separate databases, each with the name "test," has appeared in two of the three hostings.

I don't know how they got there. I didn't put them there. I contacted GoDaddy's technical support. They said that the "test" databases automatically comes with the phpMyAdmin program. Of course, that's not right. Anyway they said that I could delete the extra database without damaging anything.

Simple Login Page To Delete And Edit Things In Mysql Database
How do I build a simple login page on my site? I need a way to login to my admin area in my webshop, so I can add, delete and edit things in mysql database. I don't need help with add, delete and change things, only the login thing.

The users should not even know that there is a admin login page. The users don't login to shop, they just shop so I can't use the user login page because there is no such page. Can someone please give me some guidelines for this?

I want the php script to take the single quote and pass it to the Mysql DB so that the correct information can be propperly displayed at a later date.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this without having my user type a back slash before each and every single quote mark ?

Delete From Database
I have code that does not delete from a database. The same code (cut an
paste in the same file, but different function and having a different query)
works. So, of course, I tested the query interactively. I echoed the query
and did a cut and paste when interactively connect to the database. That
one worked so it isn't the query since interactively it is seeing exactly
the same thing as the code produces.

Here is the code:

function deleteCatalog($catalog) {
$query = "DELETE FROM CatalogNames WHERE sCatalogID='" . $catalog . "'";
mssql_select_db($database_Login, $_SESSION['Login']);
$result = mssql_query($query, $Login);
...
}

The $query echos:
DELETE FROM CatalogNames WHERE sCatalogID='CMP'

As an example of code that works (in the same file)
function addToCatalog($cat_id, $cat_name) {
$query = "INSERT INTO CatalogNames (sCatalogID, sCatalogName) " .
"VALUES ('" . $cat_id . "', '" . $cat_name . "')";
mssql_select_db($database_Login, $_SESSION['Login']);
$result = mssql_query($query, $_SESSION['Login']);
...
}

The second and third lines are identical (cut and pasted) as in other places
in the same code. In fact, it is only in this file that I do all the
database work. Every other function works. This is the only delete,
however.

Simple Mark-up For CMS
I'm designing/coding a content management system in PHP and am
currently considering how the users will add textual content. I would
like them to be able to use some kind of simple mark-up, like a very
limited subset of HTML, probably with a more friendly naming scheme.
Does anybody have experience of such a thing? I'm thinking an XML
application is the proper answer but when I consider the DTD and
parser it seems like an overkill solution if I'm starting from
scratch.

Does anybody have any advice or suggestions on this? I'm sure it's
been done before but I don't know where to look, is there something
existing I can use or adapt? Has anybody tried this kind of thing
before?

MySQL - Delete Across Two Tables. OT
i cant find the MySQL newsgroup, however i am
hoping to pick up on some expert advice from php/mysql gurus here. I'm
having some trouble performing a delete across two tables.

The tables i have are:

questionnaires (id, name);

questionnaire_questions (questionnaires_id, id, name, qf_type)

The questionnaire_questions table contains a list of questions for a
specific questionnaire (indicated by the questonnaires_id). I would
like to remove a questionnaire, and when doing so all corresponding
questionnaire_questions who have matching id's (questionnaires.id =
questionnaire_questions.questionnaires_id).

I have this statement, however it only works if a questionnaire has
questions... however i would like it to delete even if no questions
exist for that specific questionnaire. The SQL i am using is:

delete questionnaires, questionnaire_questions FROM questionnaires,
questionnaire_questions WHERE questionnaires.id =
questionnaire_questions.questionnaires_id AND questionnaires.id =
THE_QUESTIONAIRE_TO_DELETE_ID

DELETE Problem With MySQL
I've been learning using PHP and MySQL from the tutorial at
freewebmasterhelp.com. Everything works fine, except deleting things.
The script is invoked with a URL like this:

http://www.example.org/test/delete_entry.php?id=35

And here's the script:

<?
include("dbinfo.inc.php");

$id = $_POST['id'];
mysql_connect($server, $user, $password);
$query = "DELETE FROM test1 WHERE id = '$id'";
@mysql_select_db($database) or die("Unable to select database.");
mysql_query($query);
mysql_close();

header("Location: entries.php");
?>

The dbinfo.inc.php file defines the variables $server, $database, $user
and $password. The login part works.

How To Delete Only Certain Text In A Mysql Row?
I have a table setup that has a column setup as friends and users can add friends to this column no problem.

What I would like to know is how to delete only certain parts of the text of the row/cell where their friends are stored.

The friends text is seperated by the following :

" , "

That is a space on either side and comma in the middle of the space.

I know how to explode the results and put into an array to display the reuslts, but is there a way to delete only one of the friends if the text is as follows.

 , thomas , frank , irene ,

I think you can get the idea.

Is it possible to do this or should I just update the whole cell without the array[$i] result being the friend?

Question Mark Not Working
I'm working on passing vbulletin info into another set of scripts. However, when that is done, the links within the scripts page stop working. Specifically, any link that includes a ? in it.

In trying to find info, I believe the links are being abbreviated at the question mark.

So, game.php?page=includes/notplayer&id=1048 will not work. (The link is good, and works when I remove the vbulletin info)

Again in reading, I tried to change the "?" in the link to use "%3f", but then I get a forbidden error for some strange reason. I'd give a link if I could, but testing is all be done locally for the moment.
