Store color (uint) in MySQL table using PHP
The PHP service wizard doesn't support uint.
PHP doesn't have a uint type but MySQL does.
How do I send a color from Flex to MySQL?
Now just to be certain, I don't want to store every value from the checkbox array in a separate row,
I want them to be all on one row of one column and can be broken down into their individual components upon request.
The data must be stored in a manner that makes it possible to count and analyze.These two statements to me appear to be slightly at odds.
To me it would be simpler if each checkbox had a seperate column - or at least each group of checkboxes as long as you are going to analyze them together.
It depends upon what sort of questions will be asked of it.
eg "How many people ticked checkbox #4"
If you need to retrieve every single row, and do a calculation on the value to find the answer out, then it is not going to be efficient.

Populate Livecycle PDF from mySQL database using PHP
I'm trying to set up a database of loan agreements, where users will submit a form through Acrobat and their information will be stored in a mySQL database. Later, they can go back and download the PDF, which will be repopulated with their data in the mySQL db.
I made the form in Livecycle Designer and submit the information through HTTP POST. I can easily get the information from the form into the database...my only problem is getting that information back out into the PDF.
What would allow me to write back to the PDF, preferably using PHP? What kind of syntax would that require?
Thanks!I have a vital form that clients fill out, which is passed to many people in the company along the workflow. The form is a Planner and we have in the following PDF, Word Doc..
Well before, the Planner.pdf was originally created in Word, since most people have access to Word.. but evolved to a PDF form created from the Word Doc via Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 w/ User Rights enabled so that the form could be filled out and saved using Adobe Reader.. which was a step better than Word.. being that it is free. But this needed to be easier and more to the point b/c some clients don't particularly like installing the latest version of Reader, even if you provide them the link. Nor do they like saving the form, filling the form, and attaching the form to send back.
My goal is to have the client fill an HTML version of the form, submit and be done with it, but everyone in the workflow be able to easily receive the filled Planner as a PDF form.
So some months ago I ran into this post Chris Trip, "Populate Livecycle PDF from mySQL database using PHP" #8, 22 Sep 2007 4:37 pm
which uses the command line Win32 pdftk.exe to merge an FDF file into an existing PDF on the remote server, and serve this to whoever.
My problem was with shared hosting and having the ability to use the Win32 pdftk.exe along with PHP which is predominantly used on Linux boxes. And we used a Linux box.
so i created the following unorthodox method, which a client fills the HTML version of the Planner, all field values are INSERTED into a table in MySQL DB, I and all filled planners that have been filled by clients to date can be viewed from a repository page where an XML file is served up of the corresponding client, but someone would have to have Acrobat Professional, to import the form data from the XML file into a blank form.. altoughh this is simple for me.. I have the PHP file already created so that when a Planner is filled and client submits. >> the an email is sent to me with a table row from the repository of the client name, #, email, and a link to d-load the XML file,
But I also have the PHP files created so that the Planner can be sent to by email to various people in the workflow with certain fileds ommitted they they do not need to see, but instead of the XML file beiong served up i need the filled PDF Planner to be served.
I can do this locally with ease on a testing server, but I am currently trying to use another host that uses cross-platform compatibility so i can use PHP and the pdftk.exe to achieve this, as that is why I am having to serve up an XML file b/c we use a Linux server for our website, and cant execute the exe.
Now that I am testing the other server (cross-platform host), just to use them to do the PDF handling (and it's only $5 per month) I am having problems with getting READ, WRITE, EXECUTE permissions..
Si guess a good question to ask is can PHP do the same procedure as the pdftk.exe, and i can eleminate it.
or how in the heck can i get this data from the DB into a blank PDF form, like i have described??

Can select, but cannot insert into oracle tables using php.
I am having trouble inserting data into a tables in oracle using PHP. I can insert into the tables using baninst1, but nothing else. I can't even insert using the tables' owner. Every time I try I get the ORA-00492 error of table or view does not exist. However, I can run a select statement just fine. So far, baninst1 is the only user that can actually do inserts. I've triple checked all the table grants and everything is fine. Also, I can copy/paste the exact insert statement into SQL*Plus and it works with the correct user. It doesn't have to be baninst1. I've tried everything I can think of. I've tried putting the table name in quotes, adding the schema name to the table, checking public synonyms, but everything appears to be ok. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions others may have.
I'm using PHP 5.2.3 with an oracle 9i DB.Here is the code that doesn't work. It works only with baninst1, no other username will work and all I do is change the my_username/my_password to something different. This is one example function where I try to do an insert, but it doesn't work on any of the tables I try.
Thanks for looking.

</service>Hi!
I am using Flash Builder 4.6, BlazeDS, and Hibernate. How to store a webcam snapshot into the MySql Database. I stored Form Items by using RemoteObject into the database. But I failed to store webcam snapshot. I captured that image on Panel component.I converted that image to ByteArray. Now I want to save that image into the database. Please help me in this regard.
thanks in advance.
Here the Code:

Inserting image in a table using php +zend
Hy!
The table is
(products(picture_p blob,prod_id number)) when i try to insert the pictureusing a similar code with this from oracle .com:
// Insert the BLOB from PHP's tempory upload area
$lob = oci_new_descriptor($conn, OCI_D_LOB);
$stmt = oci_parse($conn, 'INSERT INTO BTAB (BLOBID, BLOBDATA) '
.'VALUES(:MYBLOBID, EMPTY_BLOB()) RETURNING BLOBDATA INTO :BLOBDATA');
oci_bind_by_name($stmt, ':MYBLOBID', $myblobid);
oci_bind_by_name($stmt, ':BLOBDATA', $lob, -1, OCI_B_BLOB);
oci_execute($stmt, OCI_DEFAULT);
// The function $lob->savefile(...) reads from the uploaded file.
// If the data was already in a PHP variable $myv, the
// $lob->save($myv) function could be used instead.
if ($lob->savefile($_FILES['lob_upload']['tmp_name'])) {
oci_commit($conn);
else {
echo "Couldn't upload Blob\n";
$lob->free();
oci_free_statement($stmt);
// Now query the uploaded BLOB and display it
$query = 'SELECT BLOBDATA FROM BTAB WHERE BLOBID = :MYBLOBID';

// If any text (or whitespace!) is printed before this header is sent,
// the text won't be displayed and the image won't display properly.
// Comment out this line to see the text and debug such a problem.

Is there a way to export the form data directly in mysql or using php
Hi,
I am using Acrobat XI to collect form data and export it as csv/ xml, then I need to import it manually to mysql. Just wondering if there is any way to automate this process so I can just select/ upload the form file and data can be imported to mysql database. I know some php also and tried finding any script but not yet found. So if there is any php script to extract the data from filled form that would also work for me.
Any help would be appreciated.
ThanksThe ADBC, Acrobat Data Base Connection, has been removed from Acrobat starting with version 8.
LiveCycle created forms support database connectivity.
See can adobe acrobat pro connect to the sql database? (JavaScript) -
Datagrid populated from mysql dbase using php
There are three methods: loadvars, xml and flash remoting.
I have a great tutorial from Lee Brimlow but he only passes one column into a listbox.
I want various columns passed into a datagrid.
I'm not too sure how to amend the php code
<?PHP
$link = mysql_connect("Localhost","user","password");
mysql_select_db("cambridgekidsdb");
$query = 'SELECT * FROM trivia_user';
$results = mysql_query($query);
echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n";
echo "<triviauser>\n";
while($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($results)) {
echo "<item>" . $line["user_name"] . "</item>\n";
echo "</triviauser>\n";
mysql_close($link);
?>
How do I "echo" out the other columns.
The flash AS3 code is:
var theXML:XML = new XML();
theXML.ignoreWhite = true;
theXML.onLoad = function() {
var nodes = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(i=0;i<nodes.length;i++) {
theGrid.addItem(nodes[i].firstChild.nodeValue,i);
theXML.load("http://www.cambridgekids.es/trivia_user.php");
I'm almost there and this will be fundamental to my website as I can create important stats on hundreds of children.
Thank you in advance.Hi.
I have a lot better understanding of everything from so many tutorials and googling so that's a bonus.
I now have AS3 and using URLVariables
The php code is perfect because on linking to the php file it echos (prints) the correct name = value sintax/format
However, flash emits an error message:
Error: Error #2101:
The String passed to URLVariables.decode() must be a URL-encoded query string containing name/value pairs
at Error$/throwError()
at flash.net::URLVariables/decode()
at flash.net::URLVariables()
at flash.net::URLLoader/onComplete()
<?php
//$username = $_POST['username']; //the second user name was a variable POSTED from flash and assigned here to $username
$username = 'DAVIDSAUGAR';
mysql_connect("localhost","user","password") or die (mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("cambridgekidsdb") or die ("no database");
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT user_name, user_id FROM trivia_user WHERE user_name='$username' LIMIT 1");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) {
$theName = $row['user_name'];
echo "usernameToFlash=$theName";
mysql_close();
?>
FLASHCODE
stop();
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
var varSend:URLRequest = new URLRequest("www.cambridgekids.es/trivia_user.php");
varSend.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
varSend.data = variables;
var varLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader;
varLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
varLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
variables.username = "DAVIDSAUGAR";
varLoader.load(varSend);
function completeHandler(event:Event):void{
var user = event.target.data.usernameToFlash;
graphTitle_txt.text = user;
You are probably thinking WHY am I passing in a username to get the same username out - well I'm only testing at the moment. -
A Fluid Gallery from MySQL using PHP and various column widths
I have decided to try the new Fluid Layout option in Dreamweaver. I pull information from a database (MySQL) and use php to present it.
To show a gallery, I would pull the info and use the repeater code, and something like Tom Muck's horizontal repeater script to create a gallery. The images need to be shown with other text-based information (not just a caption). However, the HR script is a set amount of columns - and I want the number of columns to change depending on the width of the browser.
So it's more than just a gallery - pulling images from a database with Title = "x" these would be a repeated stylised DIV with multiple texts fields and styles within.
Let's take the example of a car dealership website it must show the car image, year, prices, description etc all in different style fonts so it can just be a caption to the image.
So the options are:
A fixed number of columns for each width: Monitor 5, Tablet 3, Mobile 1. Can this be achieved by having a "IF" statement in the actual code, if width = x use this version of the Horizontal Repeater?
A fluid version that has 6 columns and as you slide the browser's width you can see the gallery's width has less columns until it reaches 1 for mobile.
The fluid version would be better.
Any links to a tutorial or example would be most appreciated.
Many thanks
HVRThe only issue with using <divs> instead of a table to create your grid columns is that you will have to set a minimum height on the <divs> to keep them all at the same depth,much like a table cell construction looks and behaves. If you don't set a minimum height the grid will look all ragged PLUS the very big drawback is the <divs> won't clear if another <div> has more content in it which is going to happen if you include a 'description' of the car as this will never be the same length unless you are prepeared to edit the text.
See fluid sample below: You can just populate the <divs> from your database and loop through them

Having Truble Reading and Echoing Using PHP in HTML. Possible Variable Scope Problem?
Hey guys,
Thanks for your always knowledgable help! Today I am working with displaying text from a text file in an HTML table using PHP. I can't get the data to display properly, I think it has something to do with the scope of the variables, but I am not sure. Here is the code I am struggeling with:
<table width="357" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="165">Pizza 1</td>
<td width="186"><? echo $price['0']; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Burger 1</td>
<td><? echo $price['1']; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Drink 1</td>
<td><? echo $price['2']; ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
In the above PHP (not shown) the array $price is filled properly (I tested by echoing each bit line by line) but by the time we get into the HTML it seems the array is empty or it is not liking how I am calling it. Does the scope of a PHP variable end with the closing "?>" tag? Am I missing something? Bellow is the full code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
body {
background-color: #333;
color: #FFF;
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$menu=fopen("prices.txt","r") or exit("Unable to open file!");
$price=array();
$priceposition=null;
$tempstring;
//This loop does all of the READING and populating of variables
while(!feof($menu))
//Check to see if this is the first pass, if not add one to the array possition
if ($priceposition==null){
$priceposition=0;
else{
$priceposition++;
//populate the temparary string
$tempstring = fgets($menu);
//Populate the array if the temporary string is not a comment
if(substr($tempstring,0,2) != "//"){
$price['$priceposition']= $tempstring;
echo $price['$priceposition'];
//End of reading loop
fclose($menu);
?>
<table width="357" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="165">Pizza 1</td>
<td width="186"><? echo $price['0']; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Burger 1</td>
<td><? echo $price['1']; ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Drink 1</td>
<td><? echo $price['2']; ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
and you can run the code on my test server here: christianstest.info/phptest/readwritetesting/readtest.php
thanks guys!MurraySummers wrote:
Try changing this -
fclose($menu);
to this -
fclose($menu);
echo "<pre>";exit(print_r($price));
and see what you get.
Wow, what a great little peice of testing code, thanks! That showed me the problem right away! Is there any way to test your php line by line in Dreamweaver CS6? I am used to computer programing in Visual Studio and Eclipse where they have an option of running code line by line and seing how variables populate and change with each line of code execution. Or is thier a program that can do this for PHP? -
How to insert data into Oracle db from MySQL db through PHP?
Hi,
I want to insert my MySQL data into Oracle database through PHP.
I can access Mysql database using mysql_conect() & Oracle database using oci_connect() through PHP.
Now How can I insert my data which is in MySQL into Oracle table. Both table structure are exactly same.
So I can use
insert into Oracle_Table(Oracle_columns....) values(Select * from MySQL_Table);
But again problem is I can't open both connections at the same time.
So has anyone done this before or anyone having any other idea..
Plz guide me...You can do it if you setup a ODBC Gateway between MYSQL and Oracle DB. Then you can directly read from MySQL table using DB links and insert into Oracle table in one single SQL Statement.
Otherwise you need to fetch the data from MySQL Into variables in your PHP Program and then insert into Oracle after binding the variables to the insert statement for Oracle. Hope that is clear enough.

Inserting Into MYSQL Table Via Air/PHP = Not Allowed?
I'm having trouble inserting data into my mysql database tables through my air app. All the code is pretty much exactly the same as in some examples I've seen but it simply won't do it. Is this because of some sort of security restriction because the air app is on my machine and the server with my mysql database on is elsehwhere? Or is it possible to insert data via an air app?
Here is the example I've been following:-

Thanks for the answers boys. I've decided I'm going to change it into a flex app instead as then there won't be any problems. It simply means I'll have to add a logon system to it.
While were on the subject do you guys happen to know of any examples anywhere of how someone can REMOVE data from an sql table via flex/php?
What I'm looking for is basically when a user uses my app and enters info into some text inputs, if that specfic info exists within a table then that data will be removed from the table. The way this works is that they will choose an item within a tilelist which is populated by the data from this mysql table and this will insert the data of the selected item into the text inputs and then they click a remove button to remove that item. Can't find anything similar anywhere though.
You will have to use a common identifier, eg:
give each row in your database an ID.
then pass that ID value on the button press to a PHP script, which does something like:
$deleteID = $_POST["delID"];
mysql_query("DELETE FROM exampleTable WHERE ID='$deleteID
maybe check that a row with that ID exists first for verification, then pass back a value indicating if removal was a success or not.
You can delete on other values, but remember they have to be unique for the database, else you'll run the risk of deleting multiple values.
Or you could delete on a compound key, depends on the data you're storing in the grid. -
Create PHP form from MySQL table structure
Hi folks
Not directly DW related, but ....
Anybody got any recommendations for a utility which would
create a quick head
start by creating the php/html code for a basic form using
the field structure
of a MySQL table ?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi Joe
Thanks for this ...
phpMyEdit looks very good and very useful, and I'm playing
with it to see just
how configurable it proves to be.
It looks good for general admin tasks etc. bet whether it
proves suitable for
end user (public) use remains to be seen.
It is basically a class which generates the page code server
side at runtime
using the parameters you set in a calling script, but of
course you can grab
the source code for the generated page which may prove to
satisfy my initial
request.
Anyway ... from what I've seen so far I could recommend that
it is well worth
some time exploring the possibilities.
Cheers,
Ronnie

CS6 Dreamweaver using PHP & MySQL - Delete Record Server Behavior?
When I try to insert the Delete Record server behavior. I get an error message about a DeleteRecord.js file, which seems to be missing or defective. I cannot use the server behavior. I have a file that I developed using CS5, and it does indeed delete the record, but does not proceed to the destination I want. I cannot change that except in the server behavior, so I'm stuck. I have noticed that server behaviors seem to disappear without apparent cause, as it seems to have in this case. I will appreciate any suggestions! Is there any way to embed a call to a target page manually? All is working WITHOUT the server behavior appearing, but I want to go to a confirmation display page that shows the record is indeed deleted, and we just return to the (now blank) delete confirmation page. That'll drive a user bonkers!
Thanks!
Delete Record in CS6 Dreamweaver using PHP & MySQL?Well, your error message is self-explanatory.
DW stores ServerBehaviors in 'Configuration' folder in installation directory. If one of the behavior JS files is missing/ corrupt, you'll see the error message you just did.
I've uploaded a functional, proper version of DeleteRecord.js onto my site for you to download. Here's the link:
http://www.sudarshan.me/adobeforum/dw/app/behavior-js/DeleteRecord.zip
Download this file, extract it and put DeleteRecord.js file in your installation directory as follows. If prompted, 'replace' your local copy:
Mac: Applications > Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 > Configuration > ServerBehaviors > PHP_MySQL
Windows: C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\[language]\Configuration\ServerBehaviors\PHP_MySQL
It should work as expected.
If that still doesn't solve the problem, reset your DW preferences and cache and try doing it. Follow the instructions here to reset cache: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
Let us know how it goes.
