Hi,
I am building an application similar to google autosuggest. I want to fetch the list of items to be suggested using PHP. Those items are stored in a database. Is it a good idea to make a database connection everytime or store them in a batch in some kind of PHP data structure. Latter seems more viable. What kind of data structure in PHP is best suited. Is it arrays or some kind of storables. I am new to PHP. Also, the no. of items will be around 5k.
Thanks.

for user interaction you can't use php (alone). you probably should store your items in javascript (so you don't need an ajax call every time)...

Thanks for replying
I am storing it in javascript and displaying to user by formatting,CSS and all .
My worry is how do I keep those items at a backend for a faster retrieval like files,arrays, hashes etc

when storing data in javascript, I can only think of arrays and objects as reasonable. javascript has very limited access to files (if at all) and I don't know anything about hashes and javascript. cookies are possible too, but they have to be a) enabled and b) do you want to have a 5k cookie?
what do you mean by "backend"?

I have a set of 8000 items at my backend( PGSQL Database). I cannot make a DB call( I don think it as a good idea), when the user keys in something. So I was thinking of something better to speed up calls.

The following program compiles fine but elicits this message from the
linker: "undefined reference to VarArray::funct" and thus fails.
It seems to behave as if the static data-member: VarArray::funct were
an extern, but it is declared in the same file (q.v.). What is the
remedy for this?

Hello,
I have a question regarding storage locations for different data types.
For example, dynamically created objects (using "new") are created on
the heap. local objects ( foo() {int x;} ) are on the stack.
1)Where are global non-const objects created?
2)Where are global const objects created?

I was recently part of a little debate on the issue of whether
constants and string literals are considered "data objects" in C. I'm
more confused now than before.
I was always under the understanding that only "named" storage
areas(from the standard) were data objects. Since constants and string
literals don't have lvalues, they can't be data objects. Yet, I was
shown the first page of chapter 2 in K&R2, which states that variables...

Hi folks,
I'm writing a traditional desktop app using VB.NET and am stumbling
over what seems like a very basic question:
My app does not need to be connected to a server or another computer.
It just runs locally. So what is the best way to store user-entered
data? The app is like an address book, where users can enter contacts
and save the data.

Hi all,
AFAIK it is possible for columns to be very large, up to about 2 GB. Are
there any hints or experiences about storing binary data (jpg-images,
pdf-documents) in PostgrreSQL with or without the complicated lo-stuff?
Of course it's in many cases a good approach to store those files simply
in the file system but there's always a risk of running out of sync
(filesystem and tables), e.g. by deleting files and not deleting the
table...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
