Trying to add the current filename into the existent 'downloads' column
Somehow i don't think i just use the plus sign into an existing column.
We don't try to add numbers here but add an extra string to an already
existing array of strings(list).

[SNIP]

# update specific visitor's download record
cur.execute('''UPDATE visitors SET downloads = downloads + %s WHERE host
= %s''', (filename, host) )
======================================================

Well, when do you understand that your MySQL problems have nothing to do
with Python?

Everything inside the triple quotes is MySQL specific, so it's a MySQL
problem whether you can use + to "add an extra string to an already
existing array of strings(list)".

This list is not a MySQL support forum.

Bye, Andreas


[code]
                # find out if visitor had downloaded torrents in the past
                cur.execute('''SELECT torrent FROM files WHERE host = %s''', 
host )
                data = cur.fetchall()

                downloads = []
                if data:
                        for torrent in data:
                                downloads.append( torrent )
                else:
                        downloads = 'None Yet'
                
                # add this visitor entry into database (host && downloads are 
unique)
cur.execute('''INSERT INTO visitors (counterID, refs, host, city, useros, browser, visits, downloads) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)''', (cID, refs, host, city, useros, browser, visits, downloads) )
[/code]

This works bit questios thas arises is what is its difference compare to:

downloads.append( torrent )

Are both these statements create a list?
But in the latter we get the famous:
pymysql.err.InternalError: (1241, 'Operand should contain 1 column(s)')

while in the join() we arent getting this.

I just want a mysql column type that can be eligible to store an array of elements, a list that is, no need for having a seperate extra table for that if we can have a column that can store a list of values.
