I have a PHP program that almost works. I'm running it from the command
line and simulating a form using a GET method. That part is working,
but I get spurious records with all of the fields concatenated into a
single field.

<?php
$_GET['hostname'] = $argv[1]; // grab [1] because [0] holds the script
name FOR DEVELOPMENT ON THE COMMAND LINE ONLY
$hostname = $_GET['hostname'];
if ( is_null($hostname) ) {
?>
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" method="GET">
Host Name:
<input type="text" name="hostname" /> <br />
<input type="submit" name="Lookup by hostname" />
</form>
<?php
} else {
require_once('DB.php');
$dsn = "mysql://read@black/equipment_test";
print("Connecting to database $dsn <br>\n");
$db=DB::connect($dsn, array('debug'=>1 ));
if (DB::iserror($db)) {
die($db->getMessage());
};
print("Connected. Looking up $hostname <br/>\n");
$sql = "SELECT name, location, kernel, distribution, sysadmin, ip,
mac, vendor_sn, real_num
FROM computers WHERE name LIKE '".$hostname."%' ORDER BY name ASC";
$q = $db->query($sql);
if ( DB::iserror($q)) {
die( $q->getMessage());
}
print("Completed the query<br><br>");
// generate the table
?>
<table>
<tr>
<th>name</th>
<th>location</th>
<th>kernel</th>
<th>distribution</th>
<th>sysadmin</th>
<th>ip</th>
<th>mac</th>
<th>vendor_sn</th>
<th>real_num</th>

<?php
while ( $row = $q->fetchRow() ) {
if ( DB::isError($row) ) {
die ( $row->getMessage() );
}
print(" <tr>\n");
for ($field=0; $field<4; $field++ ) {
print(" <td>$row[$field] </td>\n");
};
print(" </tr>\n");
}
$db->disconnect();
}
?>
</table>
</body>

When I run the program, I get no error messages, but I get spurious records:
