I saw a script like this somewhere that does that at somepoint. See if
you can figure it out. What it does is it sets the script to execute in
the background.

I don't know about your script, but depending on a number of different
things
it might very well be possible that your outgoing mail server is causing the
timeout.
If you sending through a service provider especially.. 800K + could very
easily
set off anti-spam systems..
Again, I dunno..
Frankly, in many systems it's a good idea to batch those mails.. i.e. setup
a script
which say, sends in groups of 50 - 100K at a time.. might save you the
timeout problem.
Could still be automated that way..

Try adding this before the <html> tag. It will refresh itself every thirty
seconds without user intervention.

Luka,
As the other post indicates, you will need to add either a meta refresh
tag, or simply add a link in the document (<a href="javascript:
location.reload()">Reload</a>)

I'm trying to create table in a database using PHP with MySQL.
I want the script to do it on its own, I tried but couldn't get it
to work. The script is below :
<?php
$db = mysql_connect("localhost","myusername","mypass");
mysql_select_db("sitesko2",$db);
$sql = "CREATE TABLE computers (Email TEXT not null , Username TEXT not null ,
Password TEXT not null )";
mysql_result($sql,$db);
echo "<B>DONE!</B>";
?>
Please let me know whats going wrong in that.
Thanks,

Joel: I had the same problem you did, the script isn't wrong it's just
that even though the PHP manual says to use the sintax you used, the
actual sintax for mysql_select_db and for mysql_query or mysql_result
is:
mysql_select_db(string db_name)
mysql_query(string query_string)
mysql_result(string query_string)
At least that's how it worked for me.
Later.
Iván

Hi Ivan and the others,
I realized my mistake, it was a slight confusion.
Actually no function like mysql_result exists. It was mysql_query
and I mistook it for mysql_result. The script works now and can
successfully create the tables, the script below now works :
<?php
$db = mysql_connect("localhost","myusername","mypass");
mysql_select_db("mydatabase",$db);
$sql = "CREATE TABLE computers (Email TEXT not null , Username TEXT not null ,
Password TEXT not null )";
mysql_query($sql,$db); //Now it works because it was not mysql_result
echo "<B>DONE!</B>";
?>
Thanks anyway, you could do so many functions that phpMyAdmin does
when you wanted your PHP script to automatically do that using the above
code snip.
Ivan, I think you've not configured PHP properly on your windows system if the
above script doesn't run (after you've created a database called mydatabase).

HI to all,
I have a little, simple form and after submitting, together with that
information I have to pass an array with other info. How?
Let's say array is called $Name
I tried this:
$Name2 = addslashes(serialize($Name));
On screen:
a:5:{i:0;s:13:\"Name 1\";i:1;s:6:\"Name 2\";i:2;s:10:\"Name
3\";i:3;s:11:\"Name 4\";i:4;s:12:\"Name 5\";}
And after submitting:
On screen:
a:9:{i:0;s:13: - part after quotes is cutted off!
After:
$Name = unserialize(stripslashes($Name2));
no results!
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!

I just did it:
$Name = serialize($Name);
$Name = ereg_replace("\"", "'", $Name);
<form>
<input type=hidden name=Name value=$Name>
<submit>
</form>
After submitting:
$Name = eregi_replace("'", "\"", $Name);
$Name = stripslashes($Name);
$Name = unserialize($Name);
Ok, this works, but there is mush better way, I'm sure. Can somebody tell
me?

Dear sirs,
Does anyone use Apache and PHP on Windows ME ? I have not been able to work
with because I have not intalled the software as requiered !
I have installed Apache 1.3.19 and PHP4 over Windows Millenium.
#I put this in httpd.conf file:
LoadModule php4_module c:/php/sapi/php4apache.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
I copied the files MSVCRT.DLL and PHP4TS.DLL to c:/windows/system.
I wrote a script file named test.php with the following information:
<? phpinfo(); ?>
When I open the test.php file at my browser, I get a DOS window running a
lot of HTML code quickly. My browser doesn`t show me anything. The
documentation explains that file permissions on my php script, php.exe,
php4ts.dll, php.ini or any php extensions I am trying to load are such that
the anonymous internet user ISUR_<machinename> cannot access them.
How do I change permissions for these files over Windows ME ?
Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Hi Emerald,
You should have messed with the DLLs. I know that's what
the PHP documentation says but all I did was copy 3 lines
of code in the httpd.conf file of Apache. Thats it, I didn't do
anything else and it worked fine. I can execute any PHP script
on my computer.
These are the 3 lines of code you have to put in the httpd.conf file.
#---------------
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
#---------------
That's it! Copy to you httpd.conf file and don't do anything else, everything
should work fine. Do a test on your local computer.
In your browser, enter : http://127.0.0.1/mycode.php
127.0.0.1 is the root directory and you must specify which directory should
it be or you'll get an error.
Not sure but I think the problem was you didn't mention the directory of PHP.
You missed this line : ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/".
You don't have to change the permission of files in Windows ME.
I use PHP4, Apache 1.3.19 with Windows Millenium Edition and was able to install
PHP successfully. Since you've already messed with PHP and Apache, if you still
fail to install PHP, I suggest you do a reinstall of PHP and Apache and follow the
above the method. If you have any more problems, let me know.
Hope this helps,
