Hello Guys,

I am working on a project, which requires a PDF file to be read page wise
into the DB, once it has been uploaded, the contents from the PDF would then
appear on a Flash screen.

I need help reading the contents of the PDF file into DB retaining the page
numbers, does anyone have an idea how this can be accomplished, i hope
someone here has done this before :)

Thanks,
Vinay

MySQL vs. Session array

Quick question. I have an AJAX component that fires a "like" query for
each "key up" event (since it's a like % query there is no indexing or
caching possible). While everything works fine, I was contemplaining
downloading the ~1500 rows into a session var as array, offloading the
(seperate) mysql server and utilizing the (underutilized) php server.
Any thoughts?
PS: maybe even offload it to a JavaScript function??

Thank you,
Eli

You'd be better off storing stuff in memcache than session, would be
my opinion - session is per user, so you wouldn't get much cache reuse
out of it.

If there are no functions for reading a pdf, there are some links at the
bottom of that page that might help.
