Dear all, for the first time I have to manage scripts and data on a Windows NT server (Windows NT WEBS57 5.0 build 2195). I have some problems with a routine for uploading files. The server, of course, does not accept the CHMOD command via FTP. Do I have to ask to the host of the FTP server to...

Dear rs51, I'm not sure, but I think the problem could be that you need to subtract your timeout time from the current time before performing the query: $cur_time = time(); $pippo = $cur_time-($timeout*60); //where $timeout is in minutes $apaga = mysql_db_query($database, "DELETE FROM...

Sleipnir214, you are right. I did not carefully read the first post (I already admitted that...) but I think that in the link I suggested (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-data-seek.php) Smoker616 could find good examples on how to perform his task. Gaetano

Daniel, as (nearly) always, you are right! Gaetano

There is also a FAQ about this (I've not tested it): http://www.tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?spid=184&sfid=3327 Gaetano

Sorry, reading more carefully your post I see that you already know this function... Gaetano

Smoker616, maybe you are looking for the function mysql_data_seek(). You can find here description an examples: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-data-seek.php Gaetano

Rninja, let me add a little aid to Riccardo's: to be sure your source will work fine on most servers (and expecially if you cant change php settings!) than, when you post variables from a form, you should recall them (in the form action file) with the array $_POST[] because, if register_globals...

DRJ478, maybe Dronealone forgot to give you a star. I think you deserved it (lot of people here seem to be quite parsimonious about that!). Gaetano

It' also possible to obtain a similar effect in the form designer: you add to your column a checkbox (using, as controlsource, your logical field). Then you assign your picture to the PICTURE properties (corresponding to the "false" status), and the other (for the "true&quot...

Sanjdhiman, I had a similar problem and I solved it storing the complete url in the record (e.g.: http://www.elsevier.nl/ note the direction of the slashes) to make it "absolute". Gaetano

As far as I know (I must admit I'm not a big expert as to mail...) you can't just call a "local" file from your web server (unless you are using a local web and mail server). Try your function sending a file that physically is located on the web server, and you see that the functioin...

DaRNCaT, you are in the right place, in the sense that you are talking about a typical task that is solved storing data in a databases (mySQL, for example) and then managing the data using SQL statements (like, select, update, insert and so on) that you launch using a server-side script (in our...

Here there is another one (dev-php): http://devphp.sourceforge.net/ Gaetano

Zyrag, have you tried to upload 7 little file? This could help you to be understand wether the problem is in the total size or in the number of files. Gaetano
