Duplicating MySQL Table Rows
I'm not sure whether this should be posted here on in databases, but it's a question about inserting records in a MySQL table using PHP. I have a large table with some 50+ fields with an auto-increment primary key field. When a record is edited by a user, we need to duplicate the original record, and update the fields changed by the user. My question is, what is the easiest way to capture and duplicate the original table row? Yes, I could read the record in and then loop through the $row[] array using this as the source of all fields (except the primary key), but it strikes me that there must be a simpler method.

Deleting Rows On Text File
I have a function where it writes data on a text file with an assigned id. For example, the text file looks like: data.txt 1|Hey 45|Hi 76|Hello What I'd like to do is add a function that will allow me to use the specific line that start with the id. For example: delete.php : On this file I will pass the id number and based on it, the function will go to the data.txt file and delete the specific row. So if I pass the id=45, it will remove that row ONLY and the data.txt file will look like below after removal: 1|Hey 76|Hello

Eliminate Gap Between Table Rows?
I made my first PHP page that uses includes. http://php.didah.com/main.php But I can't get rid of a gap (about 5 pixels) between the table rows. The content of each include file is one line like this: <img src="images/nav.gif" width="100" height="600" hspace="0" vspace="0" border="0"> No head or body tags. Just a 100 x 600 gif image. Here's the code for the main.php page: <html> <head> <title>First Include Page</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> <table width="600px" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td colspan="2"><?php include 'header.php' ?> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><?php include 'nav.php' ?></td> <td><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td>This is the content area.</td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><?php include 'footer.php' ?></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> If you look at the main page in IE there is a vertical gap between the header, nav, and footer image. Does anyone know how to get rid of this?
Selecting Rows From Db Table
In a project mentioned in another thread, I'm trying to get some dynamic data to work. In this discography, you can click on an album name, and the title of the album and its tracks will appear on the left. I have the beginnings worked out, like so: *** <h3><?php echo $row_rsindiv['Album']; ?></h3> <ol> <?php do { ?> <li><?php echo $row_rsindiv['Song']; ?> (<?php echo $row_rsindiv ['Time']; ?>)</li> <?php } while ($row_rsindiv = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsindiv)); ?> </ol> *** A sample of the database: *** Electronic Meditation 3 Cold Smoke 10:48 Electronic Meditation 4 Ashes to Ashes 3:58 Electronic Meditation 5 Resurrection 3:21 Alpha Centauri 6 Sunrise in the Third System 4:20 Alpha Centauri 7 Fly and Collision of Comas Sola 13:23 Alpha Centauri 8 Alpha Centauri 22:04 Zeit 9 Birth of Liquid Plejades 19:52 Zeit 10 Nebulous Dawn 17:47 *** I want to tell PHP to write the album name and list the tracks in an <li></li> based on whatever album title is clicked in the main table. The main table looks like: *** <?php do { ?> <?php $class = ($class == 'odd') ? 'even' : 'odd' ?> <tr class="<?php echo $class ?>"> <td><?php echo $row_rstdream['Album']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row_rstdream['Year']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row_rstdream['Era']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row_rstdream['Type']; ?></td> </tr> <?php } while ($row_rstdream = mysql_fetch_assoc($rstdream)); ?> *** I thought maybe of changing the first <td></td> to: <td><a href="#" onclick="<?php $album = $row_rstdream['Album'] ?>"> <?php echo $row_rstdream['Album']; ?></td> But that's as far as I can get with my limited knowledge. Does anyone have any ideas on how to display only the rows in the second database that correspond to the name of the album clicked on? Sorry the examples are so long,

Help With Randoming Pulling Out Rows Of A Table
Suppose I'm connected to a database and I do the following: $query = "Select q_id, question From questions Order by q_id"; $result = mysql_query($query); Now, what is the best way to pull out 20 random rows from my questions table?

Downloading File Stored In Mysql Table Through Ssl
I have a table where I store some binary data. To retrieve this information as a downloadable file, I use the following code: header('Content-Type: $mimeType'); header("Content-length: $size"); // for filename, i store the filename in the table, so this does not actually // point to a physical file name on the file system header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$fileName"); header("Content-Description: PHP Generated Data"); echo $data; return true; If I go through a normal port (http), the file downloads no problem. When I try this through ssl (https), I get the following error: 'Internet Explorer cannot download / from 192.168.0.9.' Through port 80, the filename is set correctly. Through ssl, the filename doesn't seem to be getting set. Is there a problem with using 'Content-Disposition: attachment' through ssl?

Site Stats, Php/mysql OR Flat Text File?
I'm have a cms and I want site stats built in, thus apache's stats or cpanel etc don't cut it for multiple users. I have a working stat query below, the problem is, in a short time 12 hours, it's grown to 109k with 500 records. now I'm not adding a row for every person, I create a session, and if they already have a row, I update clicks (page clicks) as you can see. still, it's big, the bots are eating it, so I figure, why not just create a separate table for bots, with 1 row per day and a click count. there, smaller. but with multiple users, and lots of normal hits, this will still grow quite large very fast! so I'm wondering if flat text files would be a better solution? but perhaps opening and writing to a text file constantly gets very slow? I'm confused. Code:
