  1. Hello, I apologize in advance for being new to working with MySQL and databases in general...

     

    I'm running MySQL 4.1.11

     

    Table structure is:

    salons(id, name, email, salon_name, address, city, state, zip, phone, website)

     

    I hope this is sufficient info for help

     

    I am trying to take out duplicate rows from my table.I now realize I should have used a unique index on all my user emails. What is the best way to deal with this situation? Should I create a new table with the unique rows, or should I delete all duplicate entries?

     

    I found the duplicates with this:

    SELECT email, count(*) AS duplicates

      FROM salons

    GROUP BY email

    HAVING duplicates > 1

    ORDER BY duplicates;

     

    Where do I go from here?

     

    Thanks,

    Scott

     

  2. Hi, I'm trying to get the POST info to mysql, and there should be a confirmation message... specified in the create_account function. But once I POST my info, I'm only getting the register_form function. I'm thinking there's a problem with my switch statement at the end. Can someone tell me what's wrong with it.

  4. Hey wildteen... thanks for the sudo command it helped. what i ended up doing was this: [b]sudo chmod a=rwx /usr/local/...php.ini[/b] in order to write to the file. Then i restarted my comp before I noticed any error messaging showing up on the pages.
  5. Hi, i'm a definate unix no0b so be easy on me  ::).

    Here's my problem. I'm in php.ini and it is read only. I can see [b]display_errors = Off[/b]. I need to turn it to on, but it won't let me write to this file.
    I also went back and used the following command: [b]chmod g+w /usr/local/...php.ini[/b] and it responded saying  [b]operation not permitted[/b]. Why is it not permitted?
    Thanks,
    -Scott
  6. Hi, I'm using php on my localhost. When I deliberately try to make an error connecting to my MySQL DB, all I get is a white page, no errors. How can I change the error reporting to be on (using Mac OS X)?

    Thanks,
    Scott

  8. Hi, I'm a beginner php user and I am trying to figure out how to access email addresses from a mysql table. I want to get that data and place it into a textarea and be able to send an email to those addresses. I also want to know if there are good ways to avoid those outgoing emails from being received by Spam catchers. Any suggestions on what types of things I should study before writing this program would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Scott
  9. Hey people,

    I am trying to figure out what this means:

    [code]$sql = sprintf("SELECT COUNT(*) AS test FROM %s WHERE email = '%s' OR login = '%s'", $this->table_name, $this->user_email, $this->user);
    [/code]


    I have searched through my PHP book (by Eric Rosebrock) and searched the MySQL docs, but I cannot figure out, specifically, what the following are:

    [ol type=\'1\'][*]What is [code]AS Test[/code] referring to?[*]What is the purpose of [code]%s[/code]?[/ol]
    If someone could explain these two questions I will be greatful.

    Thanks- for putting up with a [i]newb[/i],
    Scott G.
