[PHP] page name string

I need a really simple function that retrieves the actual page file name from a URL. So, if the URL is http://www.server.com/pagename.php, or if it is http://www.server.com/directory/pagename.php, the function in both cases will return "pagename.php". I'm sorry if this is a ridiculously easy ques

Re: [PHP] retrieve last n records

I see your point, and I'd really like to use Limit in the query. However, what if I want to sort those 5 last records by another field? They're already sorted DESC, so I can't do that. Kevin Stone wrote: > - Original Message - > From: "drparker" &l

[PHP] retrieve last n records

I need to retrieve the last n records of a table, n will probably be 2 or 3. I know that I can accomplish this by: select * from table order by field DESC Limit n, but i would prefer not to do this way because it interferes with my sorting mechanism on the main page. Is there any other way to do

[PHP] Getting a field value

I'm adding information with the INSERT command to 2 tables. In the first table, called "courses", I have a field called "course_id" that is an auto-increment - assigned by the table. In the second table, called "par", I have a field also called "course_id". I need to assign to this field the va

I'm running a mysql query with the ORDER BY clause, the problem is that the column that I'm running them on is type tinytext. The data are product numbers, most of which are numbers, but some are like "404R" or whatever else. So if my values are 403, 404R,405, 4150 - the order ends up being: 403

[PHP] returning unique values in columns

[PHP] Converting variables to integer

I have a bunch of form variables that I need to process as integers. The problem is that some users are writing in values with commas - e.g. 100,000, and that isn't read as an integer. There's more than one variable so I don't want to have to do a string replace for each one. Is there a general wa
