Dreamweaver php mysql date

I have created a database in mysql 5 and I have also created
a basic input record form. I am using Dreamweaver to create web
pages, but I am having a little trouble with the date function.
I am trying to figure out how to have "todays date"
automatically input into the mysql database without user input in
that field. Can anyone help?

Sorry that it took me so long to respond top your post, but I
have been trying a lot of things out.
First off, I understand exactly what you were saying and it
works on one page, but not on another. Here's the deal:
the page that it works on is a project input page where the
code is pretty much what you have already showed me. It works
perfectly using the NOW()
The other page is an update page, but the update code is
writen differently, for example:
UPDATE table SET field1=%s, field2=%s
and in this script, the NOW() does not work.
I want the date to be auto input into a different field and
also I want the value "Y" to be input into another field once the
update record buton has been pressed

PHP MySQL data display problem

I am having trouble getting data to display on my web page.In Dreamweaver CS3, I created a new page.
Selected PHP as the type.
Saved it.
Connected a database and created a recordset (all using Dreamweavers menus. I did not write any code).
NOTE: The database is on a remote server.
The TEST button displayed the records from the recordset with no problem.
On the new page, I then typed some text.
Then dragged some fields from the Bindings tab to the page.
I saved it and then went to preview it in my browser.
The page comes up completely blank. Not even the text shows.
I then saved the page as an HTML page.
When I preview this in my browser, the text shows, but the fields and data do not.
I then tried creating a dynamic table (again, using the Dreamweaver menus.).
A similar thing happens, ie. If I save it as an HTML, the text shows and the column labels and border shows, but no data.
Nothing shows if I save it as a PHP file.
I can view the data online using files created by PHPMagic, so I know the data is there and retrievable.
It is just in pages created in Dreamweaver that don’t work.
What am I doing wrong?

My web server supports PHP. I can disply PHP pages created by other software packages, just not the Dreamweaver ones.

Subject: PHP MySQL data display problem
To view php pages - or pages with PHP code in them - in a browser, the page must be served up by a Web server that supports PHP. You can set up a testing server on your local machine for this purpose. Look for WAMP (Windows), MAMP (Mac), or XXAMP for some easily installed packages.

PHP/MySQL Date Format problems

Dear all,
In the past I successfully formatted a date from a Unix date format to my own desired output by using a PHP command as such:
echo date($row_rsGNresults['date'], "Y F j");
For a reason unbeknown to me, this no longer works and no matter what I try, the page always returns the date results in yyyy-mm-dd format.
I've even tried using date format in the SQL query:
SELECT * DATE_FORMAT('date', '%Y %F %j') AS showdate FROM gemnews_tab WHERE language LIKE %s AND entry LIKE %s AND works LIKE %s AND category LIKE %s ORDER BY date ASC
I've even tried installing various Dreamweaver extensions for date server formats (like Kaosweaver's) to no avail. I've checked MySQL and the field is definitely set to 'date' and the dates are in yyyy-mm-dd format.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Would it matter that the dates are from the 18th century?
Many Thanks
J

Dreamweaver PHP/mySQL poll problem?

Hi,
I'm a PHP/mySQL noob who's using some of Dreamweaver's 8
(8.2) out-of-box Update server behaviors to update a database of
results for a poll. I know there's a lot of free polling apps out
there but I need to have the poll show up in another page as
opposed to being refreshed/displayed in the same page/content area.
I've successfully built the backend in phpMyAdmin and I'm
able to list the database contents and do basic updates to the poll
questions and answers. However, I've been unable to pass an
incremented result value via a Dreamweaver radio button group
(which is the normal poll format) without previous unselected
results being overwritten.
When an answer is selected the result is indeed incremented
and is displayed in the Result Listing but unfortunately it also
overwrites any preexisting data for that poll and replaces it with
zero. For example:
Question:
Answer a) 0
Answer b) 0
Answer c) 1 (this would be the value that was selected)
Answer d) 0
If c is selected again the value is stored and incremented
and the value is now 2. However, if that value is not selected,
then another value is incremented and c would be wiped. I've even
resorted to trying to use javascript to maintain the original state
but to no avail I was just previously incrementing the inline php
radio button value and/or assigning different names to each of the
radio buttons. This, of course, allows people to select multiple
values which runs contrary to the whole idea behind radio buttons,
but I thought I'd see if that worked . Anyway, when the radio group
is assigned the same value it merely increments everything.
example:
http://www.dailydatum.com/funFacts/funFactsListingSingleUpdate15.php
As you can see, i'm up to version 15 and gritting me teeth,
lol. Any help would be mighty appreciated.

hi ,
you can always try the macromedia devnet sites , they have
ongoing tutorials and discussions on all areas, including php with
dreamweaver8.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/topics/php.html
be aware though that some of the tutorials require the use of
third party php extensions, like interakt products, which is a
shame because most of them are expensive to buy. But they are still
worth a read.
hope this is some help.

Dreamweaver/PHP/MySQL

I am so far out on the limb of my techno capability that if I
even think of leaning forward I will fall into the abyss.
Am using Dreamweaver MX 2004 to create PHP
view/add/update/delete forms to connect to a MySQL 5.0 database
hosted by HotZona.com. Use PhpMyAdmin to set up and define the
tables (about 20 tables). All of the work I have done so far has
been done inside of Dreamweaver MX 2004. Have not modified or
inserted any original code in any of the Php files generated so
far.
Have been able to setup view/add/update/delete forms for each
table. That took me some time and a major learning curve. Oh, and
that was after spending a month figuring out what happened to the
DW connection to the MySQL database.
Some of the tables are lists to be used as lists in other
tables. That is where I am now stumped.
I can set up (useing DW) an add form for a table that uses
another table for a list in one field. It shows properly in the add
form. But, when you look in the table using PhpMyAdmin, the field
in the table does not contain the value of the list item selected.
I've made a couple more changes so I may have licked this one.
But, I cannot figure out how to use DW to pull up the
sub-list value in vew, update or delete forms. Any suggestions on
how to do this in DW or do I have to write the code independent of
DW?
Any suggestions?
Thanks

PHP/mySQL data connection

Hi,
I've used DW CS3 to create a database connection to a mySQL
database that I created in phpMyAdmin. When I do the setup and test
all the connections, everything works - my table comes up, I'm able
to select it. I created a recordset to display what's in the
database. When I test the page, I'm getting this error:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access
denied for user 'identity_teach'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
in /home/identity/public_html/Connections/facultyDB.php on line 7
Cannot connect to the database because: Access denied for
user 'identity_teach'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
The password info is in there - and I know it's right,
because DW tests the connection and gives me a success message. Any
ideas why I would be getting this error?
Thanks!
Carrie

>in /home/identity/public_html/Connections/facultyDB.php
on line 7
Check your path in your code on line 7
I had this same problem and it showed something like this
(assuming you are using PHP)
<?php virtual (/Connections/connbay.php'); ?>
i changed to
<?php require_once('../Connections/connbay.php'); ?>
and it worked fine

Problem when displaying images when working with PHP, mysql and dreamweaver in a brower

Hey Guys
I am new to dynamic development but I already did some
research and tutorials about how to get a dynamic web site working
with PHP and Mysql in Dreamweaver. I set up a test page to view
some content on it directly from the mysql database and it worked
just fine in dreamweaver only when I pressed the
live data view.
When I tried to view the same page using the browser preview
with firefox and internet explorer, plain text from the database
was correctly displayed on the brower but the images were absent.
In the mysql database I used the varchar as my picture data
type field so that I will refer in dreamweaver in the data binding
panel in the img.src to the picture column of my database.
I anyone can tell me what am I doing wrong so that my
pictures are not displayed in the browser when i click the browser
preview facility in dreamweaver I would be very very and very
pleased ! :)

The odds are that it is the way that you have referenced the
images rather
than an issue with the database. If you have the images root
relative like
this "/images" then they will work in preview, and on the
webserver, but
will not view when looking at the file via localhost.
If possible make the links page relative and then they should
work fine.

Export Data as CSV - PHP/MySQL

Hi, is it possible to export MySQL data as CSV using developer toolbox? My PHP knowledge is very basic so please be gentle.
Thanks
Bert

Hi Bert,
no, ADDT doesn´t provide this feature, but there are quite some other extensions out there to export results from a recordset as CSV -- guess you´ll find some listed in the Dreamweaver Exchange.

Using LIMIT function in PHP/MySQL Dreamweaver RecordSet

I want to have a record set that skips the first record, and shows the next three. I've found several suggestions online to use the LIMIT function, but I keep getting "error in SQL syntax." What am I missing?
mysql_select_db($database_adventcms, $adventcms);
$query_rsSideNews = "SELECT * FROM tb_news LIMIT 1, 3 WHERE status = 'Live' ORDER BY `date` DESC";
$rsSideNews = mysql_query($query_rsSideNews, $adventcms) or die(mysql_error());
$row_rsSideNews = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsSideNews);
$totalRows_rsSideNews = mysql_num_rows($rsSideNews);

And there we go. That's the reason I need to go through PHP/MySQL training rather than relying on google searches!

How to use spry in the dreamweaver with the php/mysql

The reason you get nothing when you save the page with a .php
extension
is because you have display_errors turned off, so you can't
see the
error message telling you there's a syntax error. The
semicolon is
missing at the end of this line:
> echo "<font color='white'>Hello
Swetha</font>"
The reason it doesn't work with an .html extension is
probably because
you haven't uploaded SpryAssets/SpryTabbedPanels.js. I have
copied your
page and tested it locally with the correct JavaScript file,
and the
tabbed panels work as expected.
There are lots of other mistakes in your page. You can't use
float and
position:absolute on the same element. In at least one place,
you have
used </br> instead of <br />. You have also got
an closing paragraph tag
after the paragraph that contains abc.jpg.
Getting Spry or any other JavaScript library to work
correctly relies on
good, clean code. Your mixture of inline styles and font tags
is going
to make it difficult to incorporate Spry into your pages. I
suggest you
improve your HTML and CSS before bringing Spry into the mix.

Spry accordion with php mysql as data

Hello
I`m trying to create a spry accordion where the Labels are pulled from a mysql database table and the Content of that label is pulled from data in the same database. I tried adding first the spry accordion and then created 1 recordset for the labels and a second recordset for the content , then I added a repeat region for the labels DIV and inside this div I added a repeat region for the content.
Unfortunatly when viewed in the browsers the accordion doesn`t work.
Can anyone look at the code and tell me where is the mistake.

PHP MySQL sites created by dreamweaver mx 2004 crash on safari

Hello,
The title says it all, but i will elaborate.
I develop PHP, MySQl driven database websites, I use
Dreamweaver MX 2004 and I work on a macintosh, using both safari
version 2 and 3.
i have noticed that whenever I post a database item (add,
edit to table) my safari hangs and I get a page cannot be displayed
error after 1 minute or so, even though the db function went
through.
Now, this only happens with safari and it only happens with
pages I build with dreamweaver, any hand coded websites I build do
not do this.
i have posted this on the apple website with no response, I
am hoping someone here can help me.

Where to go next with Dreamweaver and server-side (php/mysql) applications?

This question is mainly directed at David Powers but I appreciate any input from anyone with the same concern or question.
I've been using DW since the change from Macromedia and have developed a number of applications using built in server behaviors and sb extensions from ADDT, WebAssist, etc. I've learned to customize these behaviors to fit my needs always keeping within the "canned" code. In this way I've "learned" php.
I own most of David's books and in fact, it was because of these that I have any idea about what I'm doing and went in this direction in my "developer" career (building php/mysql applications using Dreamweaver.)
With the decision to remove server behaviors (and the other "developer" panels) from DW and with the deprecation of the mysql extension from the php landscape, I'm wondering where to go next? I fully understand this has to happen.
I'm aware of some alternatives:
Zend or some other framework - to me, this seems extremely complex
Keep several versions of DW installed
Stick to Joomla/WordPress/Drupal - let others who know what they're doing build the architecture
Actually LEARN php - wish I had time; too much work to do (I know how illogical that sounds but it's a very real situation)
I know I'm going to have to switch out all that deprecated code or better yet, rebuild the many applications which used the DW (and other) server behaviors. I'm just not sure which way to turn.

rjjacob wrote:
Since I wrote this post I concluded that there is no substitute for understanding and have started my re-education by delving further into the issue with updated PHP/MySQL books and tutorials so I can prepare for a Dreamweaver without this functionality.
Yes, I too have concluded that is the way to go as well. There really is no substitute for learning as much as you can. Whilst the DW Server Behaviours were very convenient they have not kept pace, Adobe prefering to spent their time on less important updates in my opinion. The Server Behaviours are what makes Dreamweaver the tool of choice for database integration for those who lack the knowledge. I feel the Adobe team will regret not coming up with an alternative. Anything that detracts from making the program what it is is a step in the wrong direction and for sure this is a big step in the wrong direction.
rjjacob wrote:
I have mainly used DW server behaviors in my development projects that's why I am curious about what others are doing to make the change. I'm surprised there haven't been more posts; perhaps I'm the last one to be taking action about this, or maybe no one is too worried about it yet.
I think a lot have changed their working practice but many more are burying their heads in the sand. sql_ support is a way off from being completely dropped yet.
rjjacob wrote:
Anyway, your assessment of how terrible the server behaviors are is correct. I'm finding that true after barely breaking the binding on a few books about the greater subject and looking into mysqli and PDO.
Yes, because I relied heavily on them I did not know how bad they were until I forced myself to look further afield. What you can do in a couple of lines of code the DW Server Behaviors produced quadruple or more to achieve the same.
rjjacob wrote:
But they sure were convenient!
Yes, I agree. Maybe some extention developer will come up with a set of new improved behaviours. I tell you if they do they will make a shed load of money.
