MySQL is a database Management System.

MySQLi is just an Extension of MySQL. It's Just a different Interface to accessing MySQL functions. Those saying MySQL is deprecated don't know what they are saying.

PDO is not a database system. It's an ABSTRACTION LAYER.

My Point? You shouldn't compare those three. They're functionally different

PHP borrows its syntax style from C÷÷. Is C÷÷ an Ugly language? PHP is relatively fast. Faster than even Ruby. People just go online and paste crap either because they don't understand stuffs or cos of Bias. PHP is great for the web. Its not as elegant as Ruby. But, its not Ugly. Period!!! FYI, I do PHP, Python, RoR, and ASP.NET (with C#).

Keep insulting us

cbrass: Am so greatfull for all your response especially that of adewasco , I for one think the WHILE LOOP and the FOREACH LOOP have little differences, the reason am saying this is I ran into a problem 2days ago and am yet to figure the perfect answer.

I want students to answer questions from a table "questions" after that question is answered another one comes in, and another one comes in...on and on and on, but where I have an issue is the questions the student has answered keep coming back again when all questions has been answered, its starts from the top again. What I want to do is if it has finished echoing out the questions for that particular student it should stop and not start all over again..any ideas on how to solve that Have tried a lot but none seems working

Hmmmm. First thing to do is to select all questions and store them as an associative array.

Now to display the questions, loop through the associative array. MAKE SURE THAT AFTER ECHOING THE QUESTION, YOU USE THE array_shift METHOD ON THE ASSOCIATIVE ARRAY.

You need 3 tables. Users table (id, username, fname...). Conversations Table (id, user_one, user_two). Messages Table (id, sender_id, message, date). To get a user's conversation list (say the user's id is stored in a variable $user_id),


"SELECT m.id as mid, u.fname, u.lname FROM messages m, users u WHERE m.user_one = $user_id OR m.user_two = $user_id AND CASE m.user_one = $user_id THEN u.id = m.user_one CASE m.user_two =$user_id THEN u.id = m.user_two END".


To get a particular convo between two people, you need the convo_id gotten from the query above. If the convo_id is stored in $convo_id, the query


"SELECT * FROM conversations JOIN users ON users.id = conversations.sender_id WHERE conversations.id = $convo_id"


Well there may be errors as that's from the top of my head. The best way of designing databases is to normalize where possible as this will remove redundancy. NORMALIZE WHERE POSSIBLE. ALWAYS

Koderiter, listen to yourself. PHP and COldfusion, which is better. i'm guessing you are gonna choose one. if one is better, why cant there be a language that can be termed "best". Do your research

you are definitely not a web programmer. if you are, you ought to know that PHP is the best dynamic web development language for the web.

ColdFusion i cant believe you. PHP's chief competitor is even ASP. your question should be rephrased to "PHP and Coldfusion, which do you prefer?"

fireworks is for graphics design, mate,

a website is a website, a wapsite is a wapsite. most of those sites u thnk re compatible with both web browsers and mobile browsers just have a wap version written in WML. javascript code is used to detect ur browser. if it detects a mobile browser, u re redirected to the wapsite. SIMPLE! u can optimize ur website for mobile surfing, but u cant make it compatible for both web browsers and mobile browsers. another thing is that most mobile phones are now powerful enof to render web browsers so that they appear jus fine
