Thanks for any advice

I'm planning on storing RIPEMD-160 passphrase hash's raw binary data in MySQL as BINARY(20).  Right now, I'm not sure if one of the following INSERT approach is more preferrable and more efficient:

Approach (1) - Using mysqli::real_escape_string()
=================================================

Code: [Select]
$binhash = $mysqli->real_escape_string(hash('ripemd160', $passphrase, true));
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO testtbl (Passphrase) VALUES ('" . $binhash . "')");
This approach saves hash() from converting raw binary data to hexadecimal format, but need to process and escape the binary string.

Approach (2) - Using UNHEX() on MySQL
=====================================

Code: [Select]
$hexhash = hash('ripemd160', $passphrase);
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO testtbl (Passphrase) values (UNHEX('" . $hexhash . "'))");
This approach needs hash() to convert binary data to hexadecimal but no need for escaping the string and it put extra load on MySQL to convert the hexadecimal back to binary.

Here is one of those purely conceptual questions, which involves no code.  I'm trying to create a select query which among other things, allows a user of a website to search other members who fall within a particular age range.  I have a column in the table where the members' information are stored which records their ages.  Which brings us to the problem.  On any given day, a member's age may increase by one year compared to what it was the previous day, hence the need to update this column periodically.  I can't think of any way to automatically update this column on a daily basis.  So my solution is to run an initial update query every time a member tries to search other members based on age, which updates the age column for all other members, before running the select query which eventually retrieves the desired age range.  This leads to the second problem.  Imagine there are thousands of users using the website.  At any given instance, there could be hundreds of members, trying to search others based on age.  This means hundreds of users will be updating a single column (the age column) in one table at the same time.  Is this feasible? Can it cause the server to crash? Or is there really a more reasonable way to do all of this? Thank you all for taking your time to read this. Appreciate any responses.

hi all

please help...

i would like to get datas between certain intervals.
please have a look @ db_table.jpg, it's the db structure. the red highlighted part is the value i need.

condition is select values when both device one & device two are off.

db_table_report.jpg is the resulting report format. It contains start time & end time and the duration..

please help, i know it's a bit complicated, but it's urgent.

Apologies... I'm a noob trying to reverse engineer code.

I have a script that can retrieve values from a MySQL database (based on a session login that recognizes which user you are) and places those values  into the text fields of a form, pre-populating the form.

Code: [Select]
<?php
mysql_connect('localhost', 'db', 'password'); 
mysql_select_db('users');

$id     =  mysql_real_escape_string($_SESSION['userid']);
$select =  "SELECT * FROM user_info WHERE md5(Member_No) = '$id';";
$query  =  mysql_query($select);
if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
?>
<form>
FIRST name: <input type="text" name="First" value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['First']); ?>"
LAST name: <input type="text" name="Last"  value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['Last']); ?>" >
Birthday: <input type="text" name="Birthday" value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['Birthday']); ?>"
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<?php
}
?>

I want to be able to connect to that same database and update ALL the values (3 in the example above) with the single click of the form button.  I think I was told some time ago that it's not possible to update all the values at once?

Thanks,

~Wayne

Hi,

My company has 240+ locations and as such some users (general managers) cover multiple sites.  When I run a query to pull user information, when the user has multiple sites to his or her name, its adds the second / third sites to the next columns, rather than wrapping it inside the same table cell.  It also works the opposite way, if a piece of data is missing in the database and is blank, its pull the following columns in.  Both cases mess up the table and formatting.  I'm extremely new to any kind of programming and maybe this isn't the forum for this question but figured I'd give it a chance since I'm stuck.

The HTML/PHP code is below:

Hey guys, I am kind of new to php but I am stuck on this question.  I have a mySQL database and table set up called members.  I have some data in the table and I want to be able to add certain things to a paticular row in the table based off the ID number of the row.  One of the values of the table is an auto incremeted ID number.   I want to add a text value called message to a specified ID number.  How do I go about doing that.  I have this code already but it doesn't seem to work.

Code: [Select]
$sql = "INSERT INTO members (message) VALUES ('$_POST[message]',(SELECT id FROM members WHERE id='$_POST[id]'))";

Any Ideas?  Thanks

Hi guys,

I am building a website with basic e-commerce functionality, using php and using xampp to test it.
I am having issues when attempting to submit a quantity (into table orders) using a form and validating it against an existing value (from table products), giving a response on whether there is sufficient quantity in the second table. I am then, in another page (same one performing the validations), attempting to then show a result based on the initial quantity entered, with a summary of the order details and calculation of the quantity * price to display a total as well. This has all been built from scratch, however I may have taken the wrong approach for these two pages... any assistance or insight as to where I am going wrong would be greatly appreciated.


Here is the page I have placed the products, existing quantity and a text field they are able to enter their desired quantity:

Code: [Select]
<?php
session_start();
require_once "../database/db.php";
require_once "../includes/functions.php";

$page_title = 'Product Catalogue';

$query = "SELECT * from products";

$result = mysqli_query($conn, $query);

if (!$result)
{
include_once "header.php";
die ("Error, could not query the database");
}

else 
{ $rows = mysqli_num_rows($result);

if ($rows>0)
{

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
?>
<form>
                <br />
                <br />
                <br />
                <table>

                <td>Product Name:</td>
                <td><?php echo $row['ProductName']; ?></td>
                </tr>

                <td><?php echo $row['ProductColour']; ?></td>
                </tr>

                <table>
                <tr>
                <td style="width: 200px">Quantity:</td>
                <td><input type="number" name="Quantity" id="Quantity" value="<?php if (isset ($quantity)) echo $quantity; ?>"size = "20" /></td>
                <td><input type="submit" name="Purchase" value= "Purchase" /></td>
                </tr>
                </table>
                </form>
                <hr />
                <?php
}
include "footer.html";
}
}

Here is the page that I am using to validate the data as well as show a result based on the entered amount:

if ($error_message != '')
{

exit();

Is it possible to use for loop to insert values into database using for loop?
Or what would be the another way to insert these values into the database if the number of values being entered differs from one time to another? Here is basically what I am trying to do:
mysql_query("INSERT INTO MaxMillionsNum SET
Day='$weekday',
DrawDate='$CompleteDate',
DateTime='$timestamp',
for($i=1; $i<=$SetNumber; $i+=1){
for($j=0; $j<7; j+=1){
$NumberName="Number".$i.$v[$j];//Generating name of database field
$$NumberName=$Match[0][$j];//Here I would store the $Match value into the fieldname name created above
}
}
Tries='$RunCounter'");

I want to take data from one table and insert it into another in the same database, the problem is the two tables have different values so it wouldn't be as simple as using an INSERT INTO script.

From table 1 I want to extract a row ID as well as a field called systems. I then want to insert that into the second table which is structured,

Id (null)
Name (games)
Value (the data given from Systems in the other)
ID2 (the ID from the other table)
Category (news)

Any ideas how I can go about this?

Hello,

I am currently trying to learn php from a book called PHP for Absolute Beginners where it teaches you how to build a blog by "hand". All nice and good until i got to the submit an entry and save it to my database process.
I'm using PDO with INSERT prepared statement like so, from a separate update.inc.php file:

Code: [Select]
$sql = "INSERT INTO entries (title, entry) VALUES (?,?)";
$stmt = $db->prepare($sql);
$stmt -> execute(array($title, $entry));
$stmt ->closeCursor();
I have attached screenshots of my database in mysql. What could be the problem? Remeber I am an "ABSOLUTE BEGINNER" :p .
Thank you

  $username = $_POST['uid'];
  $email = $_POST['mail'];
  $password = $_POST['pwd'];
  $passwordRepeat = $_POST['pwd-repeat'];
  $date = $_POST['date2'];
  $stream = $_POST['relationship'];

		$sql1 = "INSERT INTO users (uidUsers, emailUsers, pwdUsers, relationship) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?);";
		$sql2 = "INSERT INTO Family1 (username, application_filed, relationship) VALUES (?, ?, ?);";
		$sql3 = "INSERT INTO Family2 (username, application_filed, relationship) VALUES (?, ?, ?);";
		mysqli_query($sql1, $conn);
		mysqli_query($sql2, $conn);
		mysqli_query($sql3, $conn);
		
   $stmt = mysqli_stmt_init($conn);
		if (!mysqli_stmt_prepare($stmt, $sql2)) {
          header("Location: ../signup.php?error=sqlerror");
          exit();
        }
		        else {

          mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "sss", $username, $date, $stream);
          $result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt);
		  if ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
		  ($username==$_SESSION['uid'] and $stream =='nursing');
			mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
		}
		
		if (!mysqli_stmt_prepare($stmt, $sql3)) {
          header("Location: ../signup.php?error=sqlerror");
          exit();
        }
		        else {

          mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "sss", $username, $date, $stream);
          $result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt);
		  if ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
		  ($username==$_SESSION['uid'] and $stream =='doctoral');
			mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
		}
		
        if (!mysqli_stmt_prepare($stmt, $sql1)) {
          header("Location: ../signup.php?error=sqlerror");
          exit();
        }

 if (!mysqli_stmt_prepare($stmt, $sql1)) {
          header("Location: ../signup.php?error=sqlerror");
          exit();
        }
        else {
          $hashedPwd = password_hash($password, PASSWORD_DEFAULT);
          mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "ssss", $username, $email, $hashedPwd, $stream);
          mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
          header("Location: ../signup.php?signup=success");
          exit();

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I have this code. They idea I had behind it is to insert values into different tables depending on variables being passed. 

So when user fills out a form and selects $stream="nursing" I want results to go to table 'users' and 'Family1', but not 'Family2' table. and if user selects $stream='doctoral' results should go to table 'users' and  'Family2', and not go to 'Family1'

But with my query I get results go to both table and also users table. And there is no restriction to what users selects, variable $stream being passed no matter what it is.

Is this the wrong way to go here? Did I completely mess up the logic?
