Hi,
I have a PHP script that runs database queries. Now, if a query fails, should I trigger an error or throw an exception? I noticed that if I do the latter, the script execution will stop after facing the exception.
My code is as follows:
if (!$this->connection[0]->query($this->query))
throw new Exception($this->connection[0]->error);
What are the pros and cons of using exceptions for this kind of cases (failed queries)?
In some languages (ColdFusion comes to mind), you can run a query on the result set from a previous query. Is it possible to do something like that in php (with MySQL as the database)?
I sort of want to do:
$rs1 = do_query( "SELECT * FROM animals WHERE type = 'fish'" );
$rs2 = do_query( "SELECT * FROM rs1 WHERE name = 'trout'" );
I have a PHP script on a webserver.
This file is invoked via the shell by another program but it could still be run by the webserver in response to an HTTP request.
How can the script determine the way it was invoked?
I am new to coding and would just like to know a bit more about frameworks. How does a framework help you code and what exactly is it? Such as Zend for php.
I need to return a JSON encoded response to a flash http get request.
In ASP.NET, I do this with a ASHX handler.
What's the PHP equivalent ?
I mean in order that I only get JSON back, and not the <html> etc.

I'm not talking about text-editors , because I already have np++ and its great, but looking for extra features to help me save time..
any tips?
Money, Staff, Skill and preference to open source or commercial is neutral. Lets take the best of the best programmers (for arguments sake) and think about this:
What will perform better overall:
PHP & MySQL
or
ASP.Net & Microsoft SQL
(I don't want biased answers, just
looking for Performance, and Speed).
I have a directory that will be getting updated frequently, I want to display the last four images files uploaded, which match a certain pattern, on my php page.
Is this possible without having to perform a sort on every single image within the directory?
Many thanks!
Hi,
I have 5 textfields for user input in a form namely:
username1, username2, username3, username4 and username5
I would like to know how should I write my php code such that I will be able to check if there is any duplicates between the 5 textfields during POST?
I can only think of comparing (username1 !== username2) and so on, but I think there should be simpler way to do it right? How should I be able to do it?
Thank you very much.
Ok, say I have a page with the url: URL.com/checkout/completed, how can I setup an if statemet to perform:
<if "This page has url of checkout/completed">

<else>
No content
</if>
Is there a way? A simple way, my php/smarty-fu lacks.. A lot.
Thanks.
Suppose you have a string: "SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE column1 = :var1 AND column2 = :var2"
Now, how do I get an array with all the variables like so:
Array
(
[0] => :var1
[1] => :var2
)
I've tried it with PHP's preg_match_all, but I struggle with the regex.
$varcount = preg_match_all("/ :.+ /", $sql, $out);

I want to pass/bind an array of (key1, key2) to an Oracle PL/SQL stored procedure using PHP. I'm able to bind primitive types and arrays of primitive types, but haven't found a way to pass complex datatypes back and forth.
Is this unsupported? So far I've been having to pass along multiple arrays -- one for each subtype in my complex type -- and then depend on their indexes to reconstitute them in the procedure.
What is the best way to build a mySQL & PHP search?
I am currently using things like
%term%
I want it to be able to find the result even if they spell it slightly wrong, for example:
Field value = "One: Stop Shop:
They search:
One Shop Stop
OR
One Stop Shop
Etc.. I want a really smart search so they find the information even if they don't search the exact thing.
What is the best way to build a smart search like this?
