ccrevcypsys Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 So my work wants me to create a new php interface and get rid of the asp that is currently on the website. That is no problem the problem is they want me to do this and put it on the internet. But the lady who owns the site said she wants to be able to turn off the database and work on the database on her laptop without having the internet connected to it. Is there any way to be able to do this? I have thought of many scenarios but i get lost every time i do. If its not clear what im asking heres the skinny of it: -Turn off database temp -Be able to edit the database on her laptop (w/out internet) -Then when she comes in contact with the internet upload the changes she has made to the database. ??? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant_storm Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Leave database running. Copy database to local host intranet still uses the database on the intranet while she can edit the copied version at home When she comes back on the old database is overwrittenby the new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 She can't work on the DB offline unless she has a copy of it installed. If so, then she can just Export here work and then you can Import it on the Server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccrevcypsys Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 how would i turn off the db so that no one else on the net can make changes... (well not turn it off but make it to where they cant change it until its unlocked again?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Just stop the service on the server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccrevcypsys Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 in php is there a way to just lock the data base so that everyone can still see the data but can change thier personal info or w/e. If so i need to set it up like a button or link in the admin section. is this plausible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
