I would imagine that is not a recommended course of action. Possibly to successfully achieve this you would need to know enough comp. language to not need to ask this question. However, I too would be interested as to how this is done, if anyone has any theories or has done it I would like to know. I suspect that support for this request is on the bottom of a very long list.

Where is this column in the pictures mysql table?
For the adress on another server?

this is not supported and not recommended - see these postings on the old board:
http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/oldboard/viewtopic.php?t=1364
and
http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/oldboard/viewtopic.php?t=1059

If you know what you're doing, you can check http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/oldboard/viewtopic.php?t=896 and see if this works for you, but my suggestion is: get more webspace!

I have to quote Tarique's sig:

Don't! Just don't!!

This is way beyond your skills!

Get a freemysql account for your big space at www.freesql.org

snip... sorry, incorrect post

hypothetical: Well if cpg was written in (my preferred lang.) ASP then this task may be achieveable

John - If you dont have anything to add to the thread then don't...

Well CPG has to be changed draastically for that, but connecting to another server is easy.

Code Select Expand


$host = "123.45.67.89";
$port = "????";

// Open connection
$fp=fsockopen($host,$port,&$errno,&$errstr,10);
if (!$fp) {
  echo "Can't connect";
  exit;
}
fputs($fp,"GET url_or_something.php HTTP/1.0\r\nUser-Agent: Webpage (Mozilla Compatible)\r\n\r\n");
fclose ($fp);


You can also use fputs() for remotely connect database but then you need to know port, grant access from webpage IP etc. etc.
