Hello guys,
I have done some searching but really haven't found what I'm looking for. What I would like to do is generate a random BUT unique 5 digit number and push whatever number into an img tag on my page.
For example when people come to my page this number would generate and get pushed into this image tag:
<img src="http://www.sample.com?randomNUM=12345" height="1" width="1" />
I have a mySQL DB and am looking to do this in PHP.
Thank,
Matt
Hi, i have this string in my utf-8 mysql DB:
"Pruebá de eñes"
When i print it like plain text, everything works ok, but if i load that same field inside an input, textarea, etc, it becomes: "Pruebá de eñes"
How can i solve this problem? =(
Maybe it's a little dumb, but i'm just not sure what is better.
If i have to check about 30k rows in db for existanse, what i'd do?
#1 - one query
select id from table1 where name in (smth1,smth2...{till 30k})
#2 - many queries
select id from table1 where name=smth1
Though, perfomance is not the goal, i don't want to go down with mysql either ;)
Maybe, any other solutions will be more suitable...
Thanks.
Hi,
I was wondering if this is possible.
The serialize-string will be inserted in a mySQL-database, so it would be fine if all checkboxes would be inserted and not only the ones that is ticked(on).
it's possible to make on column in the database for each of the checkboxes, and use this if/else-statement:
if(isset($_GET['checkbox'])) {
// It's checked!
}
else {
// not checked!
}
but its a bit unappropriate...
Is there a function for MySQL that will count the number of times a string occurs in another string or column? Basically I want:
SELECT
SUB_COUNT('my word', `my_column`) AS `match_count`
FROM `table`
Thanks!

Hello,
I my software I need the client to install a database server (MySQL in my case). I'm deploying the setup and making user install it like a pre-requisite.
After installing the DBMS server. I need to setup databases (that I created) on the client machine. How to do this automatically (as part of installation.)?
It seems that if you have many tables, you can only perform a MySQLDump without locking them all, otherwise you can an error.
What are the side effects of performing a MySQLDump without locking all the tables; Is the DB snapshot I get this way, consistent? Do I have any other alternative for getting a backup of a MySQL DB with many tables?

Hi,
I have an SQL table like this : sales(product,timestamp)
I want to display a chart using Open Flash Chart but i don't know how to get the total sales per hour within the last 12 hours. ( the timestamp column is the sale date )
By example i will end up with an array like this : array(12,5,8,6,10,35,7,23,4,5,2,16) every number is the total sales in each hour.
Note: i want to use php or only mysql for this.
Thanks
When using a SQL join, is it possible to keep only rows that have a single row for the left table?
For example:
select * from A, B where A.id = B.a_id;
a1 b1
a2 b1
a2 b2
In this case, I want to remove all except the first row, where a single row from A matched exactly 1 row from B.
I'm using MySQL.
Hi there ,
i always asked myself. Why are there so many DB management systems?
I am not an DB expert and i never thought about using another DB than mysql.
Programming languages offer different paradigms, so there it makes sense to choose a specific language for your purpose.
What are factors to choose a specific DB management system ?
Hello there,
I have a website where documents are saved in xml documents, all with the same structure.
I need a search engine where I am able to choose documents with the highest relevance according to the key words given by a searching user.
I thought it could (?) be a good idea to have one using XQuery rather than having the information stored twice (in XML docs + mysql database) and querying the mysql database for relevance searches.
Is XQuery any good for this, and how, and what speed can I expect on +1000 documents of about 7kb each.
Thank you for your time.
Kind regards

Is it possible to install PHP, MySQL, Apache individually on Solaris instead of installing them through a webstack? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
I seem to frequently get a CURL error on Solaris when dealing with HTTPS sites. (error:81072080:lib(129):func(114):reason(128). I have no clue why that error is occuring and thought it might solve it, if I upgrade to latest PHP,MySQL,Apache versions. At this point I am not even sure if it's a Solaris issue.
Any advice?
Thanks
I am using CakePHP for a price-comparison website.
I have a table products with fields: id, pride_regular, price_action.
I would like to combine the fields price_regular and price_action into a dynamic field: price. The lowest value of these two fields should be the value of the new price field. Also I want to order on it Ascending.
Should I use a custom MySQL-query?
$extension = “SUBSTRING_INDEX(domain_name, ‘.’, -1)”;
$this->db->order_by($extension, “asc”);
It says:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘asc LIMIT 50’ at line 44
But its working when I didn’t used the $this-db-order_by Active Record Class
such as this one:
$this-db-query(“SELECT * FROM domain ORDER BY SUBSTRING_INDEX(domain_name, ‘.’, -1)”);
Anyone please help me. Thanks.
