Hi all
I am 99.9% sure it is my lack of understanding something, but it sure
seems like my PHP/MySQL code is returning something other than what i
expect from reading the docs.
to explain:
this code is serving me (almost perfectly) well:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$query = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS `CountRowsThisDateThisTBL`,
date(solarLandingDateTime) AS `uniqueDate`, 't7solar_landing' AS
`tableAlias` FROM t7solar_landing GROUP BY date(solarLandingDateTime)
UNION ALL SELECT count(*) AS `CountRowsThisDateThisTBL`,
date(solarAweberConfDateTime) AS `uniqueDate`, 'aweber_7solar_confirm'
AS `tableAlias` FROM aweber_7solar_confirm GROUP BY
date(solarAweberConfDateTime) UNION ALL SELECT count(*) AS
`CountRowsThisDateThisTBL`, date(solarAWDateTime) AS `uniqueDate`,
'aweber_7solar_aw' AS `tableAlias` FROM aweber_7solar_aw GROUP BY
date(solarAWDateTime) ORDER BY uniqueDate DESC LIMIT 300";
$foundUniqueDateROWS = mysql_query($query) or die("query failed:
" .mysql_error());
while ($uniqueDateROW = mysql_fetch_object($foundUniqueDateROWS)) {
$CountRowsThisDateThisTBL=0;
$uniqueDate=htmlentities($uniqueDateROW->uniqueDate);
$tableAlias=htmlentities($uniqueDateROW->tableAlias);
$CountRowsThisDateThisTBL=htmlentities($uniqueDateROW-
>CountRowsThisDateThisTBL);
$TBLsubarray["$uniqueDateROW->tableAlias"]=$CountRowsThisDateThisTBL;
$BuildPerUniqueDateArray[$uniqueDateROW->uniqueDate]=$TBLsubarray;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...but I am having the problem, that on iterations of the while loop
where there are NO records in one of those tables on a particular date
(when the *other* tables *do* have records for that date), then the
variable $CountRowsThisDateThisTBL seems to persist its previous value
(from what it was on the last iteration for the same table (previous
date, same table), as opposed to what I would expect (that it should
be set to "0" since count() should be returning "0" for this iteration.
What am I missing?
Here's an example (snip) from a var_dump of that
$BuildPerUniqueDateArray:
(note that the 'aweber_7solar_aw' table does NOT have a record for the
date '2009-07-28', so I would expect to see that "1" to be a "0" there.)
["2009-07-29"]=>
array(3) {
["aweber_7solar_aw"]=>
string(1) "1"
["t7solar_landing"]=>
string(1) "1"
["aweber_7solar_confirm"]=>
string(1) "1"
}
["2009-07-28"]=>
array(3) {
["aweber_7solar_aw"]=>
string(1) "1"
["t7solar_landing"]=>
string(1) "5"
["aweber_7solar_confirm"]=>
string(1) "2"
thanks,
