Hiding Passwords while typing..
Hi,
We need ur advice,...
We are integrating our application (oracle) with OID,and OID is with another team.
While integrating they have to provide their 'ADMIN-password' when the script prompts ,But the password they are about type is visible.
If this is the case they are denying it,....
Is there any way to hide the password what they are typing..
We hav to configure this in VNC session,and they will provide simply their password..and leave the session......
Hope I am clear.......Itz little bit URGENT..!!

LEARN ABOUT PHP
pg_last_oid
PG_LAST_OID(3) PG_LAST_OID(3)
pg_last_oid - Returns the last row's OID
SYNOPSIS
string pg_last_oid (resource $result)
DESCRIPTION
pg_last_oid(3) is used to retrieve the $OID assigned to an inserted row.
OID field became an optional field from PostgreSQL 7.2 and will not be present by default in PostgreSQL 8.1. When the OID field is not
present in a table, the programmer must use pg_result_status(3) to check for successful insertion.
To get the value of a SERIAL field in an inserted row, it is necessary to use the PostgreSQL CURRVAL function, naming the sequence whose
last value is required. If the name of the sequence is unknown, the pg_get_serial_sequence PostgreSQL 8.0 function is necessary.
PostgreSQL 8.1 has a function LASTVAL that returns the value of the most recently used sequence in the session. This avoids the need for
naming the sequence, table or column altogether.
Note
This function used to be called pg_getlastoid(3).
PARAMETERS
o $result
- PostgreSQL query result resource, returned by pg_query(3), pg_query_params(3) or pg_execute(3) (among others).
RETURN VALUES
A string containing the OID assigned to the most recently inserted row in the specified $connection, or FALSE on error or no available
OID.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
pg_last_oid(3) example
<?php
// Connect to the database
pg_connect("dbname=mark host=localhost");
// Create a sample table
pg_query("CREATE TABLE test (a INTEGER) WITH OIDS");
// Insert some data into it
$res = pg_query("INSERT INTO test VALUES (1)");
$oid = pg_last_oid($res);
?>
