Comments:

<0> itrebal: one of our customers paid for it.
<0> Stormchaser: what would you recommend to connect?
<1> Then I have to reitterate itrebal's question: "Why use MSSQL server when you have a perfectly good linux box right there
<2> faber2: Windows machine.
<0> Stormchaser: have you tried it with linux?
<2> faber2: Yes, and my recommendation is, that you use windows for connection with MSSQL server.
<3> i dont think i know of any apps that support MSSQL
<0> Stormchaser: i understand. unfortunately its not an option. our soft runs on linux and php
<1> Then fight with freedts and good luck to ya
<0> after one day fighting with sql server i must say, i dont like it already.
<3> faber2: if you dont like it now, you will be burning it later
<1> Of course not, it was crap when Sybase sold it to MS, and MS has only made it crappier
<1> BUT LOOK! IT'S POINT AND CLICK!
<2> :)
<0> Pollita: well, i see very anoying simple bugs. insert a '' (empty string), and the select returns a ' ' (space)



<3> YAY FOR PAC!
<4> Pollita - point *and* click?!@!?
<1> faber2: That's not a bug, it's a feature
<5> mysql_query('SELECT uid FROM users WHERE email = "markybob@gmail.com"'); instead of giving me the uid (1, 2, 3, or 4, etc) gives me "Resource #4"...anyone know why or what i need to do to get the real uid?
<1> The DB backend treats NOT NULL columns "specially"
<6> you kinky programmers
<0> out of curiosity: can mssql at all write to raw disks rather than using the filesystem?
<1> markybob: http://www.php.net/mysql_fetch_***oc
<3> ...!?
<5> Pollita, thanks
<3> Stormchaser: thats gross.
<6> ack
<0> markybob: use mysql_fetch_array() and friends
<7> good news: you can run windows on mac: http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
<1> Jinx: Okay, now it's spam
<6> Jinx_Me: good news! Your a moron
<3> Jinx_Me: i'd rather use Mac than Windows
<8> The question is, why would you want to?
<0> Pollita: the feature to return a " " instead of a "" comes from the BACKEND???
<6> Pollita: I bet Jinx_Me enjoyed that
<2> better news: You can run Linux on x86 machine! >:)
<0> Pollita: so i should not use "NOT NULL" in that case?
<1> faber2: Yep "So that applications can distinguish a NULL from an unset value.
<0> Pollita: can i switch that "feature" off ?
<3> Stormchaser: even better, you can run Linux on that mac machine!
<1> I kid you not, it's in a microsoft.com knowledge base article....somewhere
<1> faber2: No
<2> itrebal: Pervert.
<8> Y'know, I never understood why Apple used a detailed image of a hard drive as an icon. They're not exactly stylish.
<3> Stormchaser: hehe
<0> Pollita: you must be kidding!??
<1> mattmcc: Because they're extreme to the max
<9> is there a big difference in learning 4 and learning 5 (for a beginner)?
<8> Not really.
<1> Bogus: Not for the basics
<3> Bogus8: not huge
<1> Bogus: 5 just has some extra goodies
<1> Bogus: Just don't use 5.0.x
<1> If you're going to use 5, use 5.1.x
<9> cool, just looking to get some books to learn and wasn't sure if v4 or v5 of the books would really matter that much
<2> mattmcc: Well... Oxygen also uses detailed pictures of the hardware components.
<3> Bogus8: and if you are ever faced with using magic_quotes_gpc, or using the alternative: do the latter
<1> Bogus8: Get the 5 books
<8> Stormchaser: See, that doesn't make sense to me. Of all computer users, I would expect Mac users to be the least interested in the hardware that their system uses, let alone what it looks like.
<1> <plug> I recommend "PHP5 Unleashed" </plug>
<1> Actually no, Unleashed is more of an intermediate title
<9> I've always liked O'Reilly books... anything against them?
<0> Pollita: mmhhh.. is see the same problem when i set the column to "NULL"
<1> If you want a beginner book, go for "PHP and MySQL Web Development"
<8> Pollita: "PHP: Extreme to the Max"?
<3> mattmcc: heh, my english teacher is one of the few Mac users that is a "mac modder" and built a mac server, which is amazing (and also uses about... 16 terminal windows at once)
<1> Bogus: Only that SAMS pays me :)
<9> Pollita: actually that is exactly what I need as I need to build a very basic database (marketing survey) site for someone
<9> haha
<1> Bogus: PMWD is a FANTASTIC title for newcommers. You won't be dissapointed.
<1> And for the record. I don't make a profit off of sales of that book.
<1> I just think it's a good one.
<8> Does snipe? :)



<9> Pollita: thanks for answering my basic questions and recommending the books!
<3> i'm generally bad with books..
<9> itrebal: I'm generally bad with databases ;) so I'll give a book a shot
<1> itrebal: I prefer the monkey-with-a-sledge-hammer approach personally
<3> Pollita: i'm guess thats where you take the example and slaughter it until you get it to do something you want it to do?
<3> s/guess/guessing
<1> right
<3> Pollita: i work well with that too.
<1> And if all else fails.... fling feces
<2> mattmcc: http://www.oxygen-icons.org/?cat=3
<3> thats an added bonus i've yet to discover
<8> Stormchaser: This is for KDE 4?
<5> Pollita, worked beautifully. thanks again.
<2> mattmcc: mhm
<3> Stormchaser: thats beautiful
<2> yeah... I have to try it once... Should do lots of upgrade, tho.
<8> Well, isn't it kind of still just a glimmer in the developer's eyes? :)
<3> http://homepage.mac.com/mmurph/bar/
<1> markybob: What did? The fecal fling?
<2> mattmcc: KDE4 is in heavy development like 4/5 months now...
<3> http://www.google.com/mars/
<10> Is there any reason why my exec/system/p***thru wouldnt be executing given commands at all?
<2> onlygeeks: It doesn't find them?
<10> What do you mean them?
<2> onlygeeks: Commands. Plural.
<10> I'm trying the most basic stuff after not being able to get ffmpeg to work.
<10> eg, ping yahoo.com
<10> I've got error_reporting set to strict, there are absolutely no errors reporting
<10> just a blank page.
<11> Any one got any experiance with php ldap ?
<12> hi
<12> is there any way to access a cl*** constant (such as UserPeer::NICK) when you know both the cl*** name and the constant name, but in vars (ie at execution time)?
<0> when i do a "SELECT ''", sql server returns a " " in php. is there a way to change this? (Pollita says there isn't)
<13> is there a means for detecting whether javascript is enabled?
<10> Any help with my problem?
<0> onlygeeks: be aware that these command have a very limited environment
<14> faber2: Wow, you're not the brightest. If Pollita says there isn't, chances are 99.9999% likely there isn't.
<0> Ahroun: do i know Pollita?
<14> faber2: To put it bluntly, Pollita is probably one of the best and most experienced here. Has the attitude to match, but it's well deserved & earned.
<10> faber2, why would you try to use SELECT
<10> faber2, why would you try to use SELECT ''
<0> DogWater: you can just use javascript to load a new page or something like that
<10> faber2, at the very least they should be able to ping something.
<0> onlygeeks: its just an example. it returns a space for an empty string. always. it ****s. our application depends on the empty string.
<2> onlygeeks: Um... you have error reporting on E_STRICT? Is that with or without the combination of E_ALL?
<0> onlygeeks: ping something, what do you mean?
<15> does php have some sort of enum data type?
<2> no
<16> lol
<2> That was fun :)
<8> Jax: Why would it need one? Arrays are pretty flexible.
<16> if ALL of them would do that
<16> mattmcc he's gone
<17> Jymmm: Problem with Jax is he keeps coming back
<17> Rather like a stray cat one fed once upon a time
<16> TML ROTF
<18> I'm getting a Fatal Error that i'm unable to access a private member named "formula," yet i've used __set() to override this behavior: http://rafb.net/paste/results/DchlVB52.html
<17> I helped the guy write a sort in ActionScript once, like 4 years ago, and he keeps coming back. :)
<19> Hey, I need to handoff the mysql_link (created by a mysql_connect) to a variable, via a function... any idea how to do this?
<17> madsara: What?
<19> I've tried return @mysql_link, to no avail.
<17> madsara: What did you expect @mysql_link to do?
<18> madsara: simply return the variable
<1> faber2: function fix_spaces(&$row) { foreach($row as $idx=>$value) { if ($value === ' ') $row[$idx] = ''; }
<16> TML We need a way to comment bans.... +b Jax!*@*:help quota exceeded, try again next year.
<1> Just hit that after every row fetch
<20> Greetings!
<21> is there a datatype for php that will make the following operation really fast? Say I have an array and want to get the keys that have $value['key'] = foo
<19> Something similar to this:
<19> http://pastebin.com/642598
<1> steve: array_search()
<0> Pollita: yeah, i could probalby do that. but i would *hate* doing that kind of hacks. do you know how adodb (never tried that) handles this?
<17> Jymmm: :brain underrun
