  1. Does anyone see why I am getting an error message with the below select statement? I am using Excel VBA to connect to a web server. I'm getting an error that the ODBC driver does not support the properties. rs.Open "(SELECT [*] from [movie] WHERE [movie_year] like ['2000'])", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable Thanks for the assistance.
  2. Sorry to be <i> that new guy</i> but i can not see why my detail are not falling into a table. The $movie_header is executing fine, but the $movie_details are not dumping into the table, they are just being displayed in one row under the header... <?php include "config.php"; $link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql'); mysql_select_db('test'); $query = "SELECT movie_name, movie_director, movie_leadactor " . "FROM movie"; $result = mysql_query($query, $link) or die (mysql_error()); $num_movies = mysql_num_rows($result); //LINE 20 $movie_header=<<<EOD <h2><center>Movie Review Database</center></h2> <table width="70%" border = "10" cellpadding="2" cellspeacing="2" align= "center"> <tr> <th>Movie Title</th> <th>Year of Release</th> <th>Movie Director</th> <th>Movie Lead Actor</th> <th>Movie Type</th> </tr> </table> EOD; //echo "$movie_header"; //LINE 38 $movie_details = '' ; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $movie_name = $row['movie_name']; $movie_director = $row['movie_director']; $movie_leadactor = $row['movie_leadactor']; $movie_details .=<<<DETAILS <tr> <td>$movie_name</td> <td>$movie_director</td> <td>$movie_leadactor</td> </tr> DETAILS; } $movie_details .=<<<EOD <tr> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Total :$num_movies Movies</td> </tr> EOD; $movie_footer = "</table>"; $movie =<<<MOVIE $movie_header $movie_details $movie_footer MOVIE; echo "There are $num_movies in the database"; echo $movie; ?>
  3. That eliminated my parse error...and it was dumb, but the data from line 39 down is not displaying as I would expect it to. I know that the records are being read because the $echo "$num_movies"; variable on line 17 is returing the correct count.
  4. Does anyone see why I am getting the following error in the code below? Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting ',' or ';' on line 39 <?php include "config.php"; $link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql'); mysql_select_db('test'); $query = "SELECT movie_name, movie_director, movie_leadactor " . "FROM movie"; $result = mysql_query($query, $link) or die (mysql_error()); $num_movies = mysql_num_rows($result); echo "$num_movies"; //LINE 20 $movie_header=<<<EOD <h2><center>Movie Review Database</center></h2> <table width="70%" border = "10" cellpadding="2" cellspeacing="2" align= "center"> <tr> <th>Movie Title</th> <th>Year of Release</th> <th>Movie Director</th> <th>Movie Lead Actor</th> <th>Movie Type</th> </tr> </table> EOD; echo "$movie_header" //LINE 38 $movie_details = '' ; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $movie_name = $row['movie_name']; $movie_director = $row['movie_director']; $movie_leadactor = $row['movie_leadactor']; $movie_details .=<<<EOD <tr> <td>$movie_name</td> <td>$movie_director</td> <td>$movie_leadactor</td> </tr> EOD; } $movie_details .=<<<EOD <tr> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Total :$num_movies Movies</td> </tr> EOD; ?>
  5. Just in case anyone was looking, the error was on the last line of my sql insert. I had: "(8, 'Kids'), " . and I should have had "(8, 'Kids') " ; I'm quickly learning that PHP is very particular. Thanks for the help though.
  6. no, i just have not posted it... the code is running...getting the "completed" confirmation, but it just isn't storing the data..
  7. No error. Scirpt ran all the way through. Got the completed message at the end.
  8. Hello all, I'm trying to run some script to populate a table that is already created. When I run the below code I am getting the completed message at the end, but my data is not going into my table....is there something incorrect with this code that is causing the issue? //make sure that we are using the right database mysql_select_db("test"); //insert data into "movietypeds table" $type = "INSERT INTO movietypeds (movietype_id, movietype_label) " . "VALUES (1, 'Sci Fi'), " . "(2, 'Drama'), " . "(3, 'Adventure'), " . "(4, 'War'), " . "(5, 'Comedy'), " . "(6, 'Horror'), " . "(7, 'Action'), " . "(8, 'Kids'), " . $results = mysql_query($type) or die(mysql_error()); echo "Completed"; ?> Thanks
  9. Hello, I recently installed the XAMPP package on my computer and am confused on the set up of the config file.  The installation went fine.  All components are working.  However, I now want to redirect the document root to a new folder and the httpd file in the apache-conf path does not control what page is loading.  I can completely delete this file and it still loads as if I did nothing. Would someone be able to point me in the direction of where the index page should be?  If I can at least find that I should be able to start figuring a little of this out. Thanks for the assistance. David
  10. [!--quoteo(post=367881:date=Apr 24 2006, 02:17 AM:name=fenway)--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE(fenway @ Apr 24 2006, 02:17 AM) [snapback]367881[/snapback][/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--] Not sure what you mean... MySQL only sets up mysql, users and test tables. If you lost mysql, you're in trouble, users you can recover, and test is just a playground. [/quote] Thanks for answering this. What i mean is that I am typing the command to show the tables in the database mysql. However, the command prompt is telling me that I don't have the permission to log in. Let me take one step even further back. I am changing my command prompt to mysql>. From here i am typing the command "Show Databases;" and I am getting Test and MySQL returned. Then when I want to see the tables in mysql i am getting the error that I am not authorized. I think I need to log in, but I don't know how... is that enough to help? Thanks?
  11. Hello, I have recently been trying to learn PHP and MySQL with a help guide. I am now at a point in my manual that I need to get back into the default tables that were loaded with MySQL. I am being told that I don't have the permission, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to acutally log in at the command prompt. Please help, Thank you,
  12. I am new to using mySQL. I installed foxserv today and have been using my basic SQL skills to get around the sample databases that were installed with the .exe file. I am also using a beginner's guide that is suggesting if the install didn't place some .cnf files in my c:/mysql/directory then i shoud consider typing them in notepad and saving them there. My question is that I am using mySQL along with Apache. Should I place the my.cnf files in the root folder of Apache or should I place them at the highest level of the mysql "tree"? Thanks for the help? David
  13. I am brand new to php and mysql. My company spends alot of money outsourcing simple projects that we should be able to do in house so I am trying to learn this application. I have downloaded the Foxserv AMP trio onto my machine and am working my way through a beginners guide. In this guide, the authors are suggesting that i test my mysql installation at the command prompt by looking for a sample db that was loaded in the installation process. i have copied the libmysql.dll file (originally called msql.dll) to the system32 folder. Now when i am at the command prompt and enter the following path: c:\foxser\mysql\examples\libmysqltest\mytest i am getting an error message that reads "The procedure entry point mysql_int could not be located in the dynamic link library libmysql.dll" Can someone please set me straight? Thank you David
  14. hello everyone, I am brand new to php and mysql. I have developed some basic personal web pages in th past using FrontPage but nothing extremely complicated. I have purchased a beginner's and have begun looking through it, but am curious about the actual form development inside PHP. Can I use a tool such as frontpage or dreamweaver to create what i want and then somehow "connect it" to php and mysql or does everything ususally get created by me doing the coding myself?? Again, i know that this is a dumb question that I will look back on in 6 months and laugh at, but right now, i'm not laughing.
