Hi, thanks for confirming the error in the code, I am going to have a look at 'Unix' over the feastive season as a possible alternative route [~].

Hi, here is the latest; '> I can't get the first calculator

-> example to work. When I submit

-> the form...', UTC_TIMESTAMP());

'> '\c

mysql>

 

AS you can observe I cannot force the system to accept the {;} command. I don't think going round in circles is acceptable! I have studied "F" on page 192, and other than the screen being from an 'Apple' OS, I cannot deduce anything different from my own laptop. Any further advice is welcome thanks.

 

kind regards

Hope this is clearer ok

Hi Larry,

thanks for the advice, which got the system going again thankfully! However I got an error message;

ERROR:

\c charset_name: charset charset_name

I certainly could type the command [;] in the next line, but the system seemed to take this as a fatal error, thus I have to start at the beginning once again! If there is a way around this problem, please let me know. I did not go to university back then, so these manuals are very helpful in the modern age I feel. Thanks again.

 

kind regards

I have been making some progress with 'Chapter 6' of 'PHP and MySQL for', however I am having increasing problems with the 'cursor'. [->] is the opening for every new line, however ['>] signals the end of the system accepting any commands, not even 'exit'. The only option as far as I can determine is to click the red button with the 'white' X, and loggin again with 'mysql.exe'. Might there be a quickfix for this 'affliction'? I may change to a 'macbook' sometime soon, if things prove too irksome on 'Windows'. Any advice is very welcome thanks.

 

regards

Can someone tell me how to find the errata for this book? I have tried the search boxes but they are worse than useless! Thanks for any clues guys.

Helah, having just started with 'PHP and MySQL', a crisis of confidence has arisen, therefore I am seeking some reassurance as regards codes, bugs and browser compatibility! Sorry to appear tiresome guys, this is England by the way.
