Using A Php Html Form With Data Which Is Loaded From A Mysql Database.
I am using a php html form with data which is loaded from a mysql
database. Three of the fields are textareas. The data loads into these
fields fine, except that the loaded text starts at what appears to be 2
or 3 tab characters to the left. See illustration:
+---------<this is a textarea object>---------+
| This is about the way that|
|the text loads from the database field. |
| |
| |
+---------------------------------------------+
It's almost as if there's a textarea "align" property which is set to
"center" by default unless otherwise explicitly stated.
Is there some setting in the wrap property that will fix this, or should
I be looking elsewhere?

Use A Form To Insert Data Into A MySQL Database
When you use a form to insert data into a MySQL database, how can you set it up so that the fields are not sent via the address bar. For example: page1.php ___________ <form action="page2.php"> <input type="text" value="whatever"> <input type="submit" value="Send"> page2.php ___________ // Inserts variable $whatever into database. The problem that I have is that I don't want the address bar to appear as http://web/page2.php?whatever=cheese but as http://web/page2.php

Displaying Data From Mysql Database In A Drop Down List On Form.
I'm trying to do is display data from two different mysql tables from the same database in a drop down list on a html form. I have a fixtures table with the player1(userid), player2(userid), gameid, game, score1 and 2, what I want is to use the userid to get the players first name and surname from the members table (as it is a unique id), I need to do this bit before displaying it in the drop down.

How Do I Make Sure HTML Is Loaded
I have a loading screen that has a nice animation that displays while the PHP is working in the background (it usually takes 20sec to do all the stuff). The issue is that it wont load the HTML until the PHP is finished querying -- so it kinda loses the purpose of having that loading screen. But I want people to know the site's working and not have to hit refresh. Can I have the PHP wait until the end of the HTML before running it's stuff? And then have it modify the header or something similar (meta-refresh?) to forward the user to the results page?

Using Includes: Html Form Parse Data Inside 2nd Form.
i'm coming down the stretch, so to speak. i've got a lot of the separate things settled that i need for my main "date entry" form. due to the several data items which need to be collected by this form, i've decided to try using includes, which i've found isn't that tricky at all really. however, one of my includes needs itself to parse it's own little form data to result in the final entry to be submitted in the "date entry" form. perhaps doing this particular bit as an "include" is NOT the best option?

File Uploads - Provide The User Some Type Of Status, I.e. 10% Loaded, 12% Loaded Etc.. ?
My assumption is that the script doesn't begin execution until all of the post comes over to the server. From php's standpoint it MIGHT be able to know that there's a process that's taking a bit of time, but I suppose that there's no way to know WHICH process. From the user's standpoint he/she doesn't know whether the file is uploading or the process has stalled. Is there ANY CLEVER WAY to provide the user some type of status, i.e. 10% loaded, 12% loaded etc.. ? At one point I thought you could use a 2nd iframe to read memory process or files in the tmp directory, but then realized the only memory process is probably going to be httpd and like I said you can't tie that to this specific script.

Using Html Form Data
I'm trying to send and receive data interactively to an html form and am having trouble processing the returned data. The idea is as follows: - Retrieve records from a SQL DB and populate an array to send four of the fields from each record to an html table. - As each row of the html table is built (using a loop) it includes a checkbox field (used temporarily, and not for return to the SQL DB) so the user can select one or more of the displayed records. My problem is getting the record ids of the selected rows (checked boxes) back to my php processor so I can use the selections to populate a new array. I can't seem to grab and use any of the data from the checked rows. In the end, I need the record ID and road name fields for later use. Code:

Create A Data Entry HTML Form For Given Table
I am working on a simple web site updating utility for a web site. Rather than hard code the data entry forms, I would like to automactically generate them based upon the table a user selects to update or insert into. What is the best way to approach this? for "insert" should I use the MySQL DESCRIBE table command and build a form element for each field according to its data type? for "update" should I use the DESCRIBE command to build the form as above and SELECT statement to populate each element with data, or should I just use a SELECT statement to retrieve the data and use php to determine the field type and choose an appropriate form element?

Pre-selecting Options In Html-form According To Database Entry
I've got a html-form consisting - among other fields - of several drop-down-boxes and radio button groups. With this form you should be able to either create a new dataset or to edit an existing one. If the latter is the case, my application should propose values (the ones which are already in the database) and write them into the input-fields. My problem is, it should have the according options pre-selected and the checkboxes checked, and I've no idea how to do this. (Example: I've a dropdown box for languages, and my dataset says the language is English, then in my dropdown box the option "English" should be preselected when this dataset is to be edited).

Comparing Form Data To Mysql Data
Im interested in building a script that would take form data, a variable like an address, and compare it with a known address in a mysql table (called addresses), then if there is a match log the address information in a separate table called (addresslog), and return the visitor to a certain page. If there is no match between the address entered in the form and known addresses then the information is still logged into the addresslog database but the visitor will be sent to a different page. I'm still new to this, and am working through the logic and the syntax, but I believe I'm close. It's still not working, I have all of the proper tables, maybe I'm way off with the coding so I thought I would seek out some expert advice. Here's the entire script with as much explanation as I could give. PHP Code:

Importing Html To Mysql Database
I'm preparing to convert my "old" non-dynamic html website to php and mysql. I finally found a mediumly fast way to turn the html pages into raw data, but it has html codes within the content that I want to stay within the database. For example, I have DIV and CLASS codes with quote marks (div id="fred" - p class="red") that I want to stay. I've read through the mysql documentation and understand that I can set the fields-terminated-by, fields-enclosed-by and lines-terminated by with characters, but I can't find which characters are allowed. I also am not sure about doubling the quotes in order to keep them ("") or adding slashes ("), or what. I did a test run with phpmyadmin to add a simple four field test text file to a table I set up with phpmyadmin. I tried changing from the default field separators of ";" to "^" and record ends of "#". Nothing. Code:
