new to osm - and all the corresponding things like requests done with overpass and thelike

update: this thread is related to the thread https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/33926/osm-overpass-api-with-php-simplexml-minor-changes-to-the-parser

where i perform a request to the overpass-API-endpoint. All goes well - but i want to have

a. the results stored within a mysql-database b. perform a request with another area-definition....

see more at the above mentioned thread:

how to perform a request - note i do them with PHP

$query = 'node
  ["amenity"~".*"]
  (38.415938460513274,16.06338500976562,39.52205163048525,17.51220703125);
out;';

what if i replace this with the following

$query = 'node
  ["addr:postcode"~"RM12"]
  (51.5557914,0.2118915,51.5673083,0.2369398);
   node
  (around:1000)
  ["amenity"~"fast_food"];
           out;';

cf: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Xapi

well can i enter values for countries as well what if i want to have all schools from a certain country:

$query = 'node
  ["addr:country"~"Brasil"]
   node
  ["amenity"~"school"];
           out;';

question - can i do like mentioned above - can i perfom such requests?

please set me straight if my question is not concise and concrete enough

Are you trying to use XAPI or Overpass? You've referenced the XAPI wiki page and are quoting what looks like overpass queries. Also, you've not said what (this time) your end goal is.

It might help to take a step back and document somewhere (perhaps on a personal wiki page?) what you're trying to do, why you're trying to do it, what you've tried so far, what you expected to happen, and what actually did happen.

This page here is about software bug reporting:

but you might find it helpful all the same.
