PHP - Checking Large Array For Value

Hello All,

Attached are 2 screenshots of the form and output for better reference.

What I am trying to do is select all or some checkboxes and for those boxes that are checked, echo out their Payment Method.

---If a checkbox is checked but the Payment Method box == select, give an error.

---If checkbox is checked and Payment Method != select, echo out the ID and selection from the drop down box.

Currently, I am echoing the correct ID(s) when certain boxes are checked, but I'm getting every drop down box selection when the corresponding box is not selected.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is the HTML / PHP Form:

$results .= '<table align="center" width="70%" border="0" bgcolor="'.$bg.'" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" class="resultsUnderline">';
$results .= '<tr>';
$results .= '<td width="30%" align="left">'.'<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox[]" value="'.$app_pmt_id.'" id="checkbox" />'
.$full.'<FONT size="1" color="maroon"> ( '.$app_id.' )</FONT></td>';
$results .= '<td width="30%" align="center">'.$created.'</td>';
$results .= '<td width="20%" align="center">
<select name="pay_method[]" class="drop" id="pay_method">
<option value="select">-- Method --</option>
<option value="check">Check</option>
<option value="credit">Credit Card</option></td>';
$results .= '<td width="10%" align="center">'.$paid.'</td>';
$results .= '<td width="10%" align="right">'.$fee.'</td>';
$results .= '</tr>';
$results .= '</table>';

Here is the PHP getting the results:
if(isset($_POST['action_box']) && $_POST['action_box'] == 'mark_paid')
{
    $checked = array();
    $checked2 = array();
    
    if(!isset($_POST['checkbox']))
    {
        $val_error[] = 'You have not selected any applications.';
    }
        elseif($_POST['pay_method'] == 'select')
        {
            $val_error[] = 'Please select a Payment Method.';
        }
    else
    {
        foreach($_POST['checkbox'] as $value)
        {
            $checked[] = $value;
        }
        foreach($_POST['pay_method'] as $value2)
        {
            $checked2[] = $value2;
        }
            
        echo implode(",", $checked);
        echo implode(",", $checked2);

        //$result = mysql_query("UPDATE app_pmt SET paid = '1' WHERE app_pmt_id IN(" . implode(",", $checked) . ")");
        //header('Location: bal_due.php?id='.$_GET['id']);
    }
}

Hello,

Currently have an array like looks like the following when using print_r($session->items):

Array ( [F1225] => 1 [EDS11147317] => 1 [1156D6RE001] => 1 [I111ADE47946] => 1 [S679AQ339] => 1 [S67914599] => 1 [CH111337631254] => 1 [S6787903647] => 1 [A11144O189] => 1 [F11144520] => 1 [121584Q12] => 1 [I11144661ADE] => 1 [S678829NB] => 1 )

I am trying to check if an item is in the array and if so, display a different result but currently every item says it is in the array when they are not (unless my logic is off...from the items I am looking at some should be included and some should not..but the below code is showing every item as having the same result).

Example:

foreach ($items as $item) {

if (in_array($item->ItemID, $session->items))  {  //$session->items is the array output above

     echo "In Array";

    } else {

    echo "NOT in Array";

    }

}


Currently everything say "In Array" when some should not.  Am I using the in_array incorrectly?

Thanks Everyone.

Following is the form.Now i want to see if submit button is pressed or not.Usually if html had

Code: [Select]
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name = "submit" />
i would simply use
Code: [Select]
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
?>
But below is the form which has an image as a submit button

Form -
Code: [Select]
<form action="" method="post" id="sendemail">
            <ol>
              <li>
                <label for="name">Name (required)</label>
                <input id="name" name="name" class="text" />

 I tried sending it to other page but then i had to send an array back to this page and i didn't know how to send that either.I tried
Code: [Select]
<?php
$error = serialize($error);
  echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0;url=about.php?array=".$error."'> ";
?>
But even after

Code: [Select]
$array = unserialize($array);
$array contained nothing.

Can someone please show me how to send in array in between pages for future ?

Hi all

So... I am creating an import script for putting contacts into a database. The script we had worked ok for 500kb / 20k row CSV files, but anything much bigger than that and it started to run into the max execution limit. Rather than alter this I wish to create something that will run in the background and work as efficiently as possible.

So basically the CSV file is uploaded, then you choose if the duplicates should be ignored / overwritten, and you match up the fields in the CSV (by the first line being a field title row), to the fields in the database.

The field for the email address is singled out as this is to be checked for duplicates that already exist in the system.

It then saves these values, along with the filename, and puts it all into an import queue table, which is processed by a CRON job. Each batch of the CRON job will look in the queue, find the first import that is incomplete, then start work on that file from where it left off last. When the batch is complete it will update the row to give a pointer in the file for the next batch, and update how many contacts were imported / how many duplicates there were

So far so good, but when checking for duplicity it is massively slowing down the script. I can run 1000 lines of the file in 0.04 seconds without checking, but with checking that increases to 14-15 seconds, and gets longer the more contacts are in the db.

For every line it tries to import its doing a SELECT query on the contact table, and although I am not doing SELECT * its still adding up to a lot of DB activity. One thought was to load every email address in the contacts table into an array before hand, but this table could be massive so thats likely to be just as inefficient.

Any ideas on optimising this process?

Hi guys,

I am currently receiving a large text file ( > 500mb), once per week which I have been manually splitting then processing to obtain the required CSV files.  However, this is taking in the region of 2 to 3 hours.  Very soon, these files will be sent daily and I really dont have the time to split and process this everyday

I have been playing for a while to try and parse everything properly/automatically with fopen, feof and fgets ( and other 'f' options), but the script never seems to read the file all the way to the end - I assume this is due to memory usage.

The data received in the file follows a strict pattern throughout the file which is:
Code: [Select]
BSNY990141112271112270100000 POO2C35    122354000 DMUS   075                   O

LTBAROW   1237 12391     TF
That is just one record of informaton (1 of around 140,000 records), each record has no fixed amount of lines but each line in each record is fixed to 80 characters and all lines in each record need to have the same unique 'id', at present, Im using an md5 hash of microtime.

The first line of every record starts with 'BS' and the last line of each record starts with 'LT' terminating with 'TF'.  All the other stuff between also follows a certain pattern of which I can break down effectively.

The record above show one train service schedule, hence why each line in each record needs the same unique id.

Anyone got any ideas on how I could process such a file effectively??

Many thanks

Dave

Hi guys   Been a while since I've been on here, completely lost my login details for my old account which is a shame because it was a well established one but hey ho that's life.   Anyhow, I've starting a project as of tomorrow and I was wondering if I could get some advice on the best methods/routes to take.   The Brief   + 3 full websites + no single admin + one main admin   The Plan   Once all 3 websites are complete none of them will have the standard admin panel that the average website has. All 3 websites (this number is going to grow in time too) will have one central admin held of a separate and isolated server which in essence will *remotely* administrate the websites I connect to it.   The Question   I have never done a project with multiple websites that run from a central admin. My questions are if anyone could shine some light....   Should I make the admin panel audit the website selected by sending commands through api, crud, rest or simply by direct db access? What is the most secure way of doing this central admin (bare in mind the admin panel will have a minimum of 10 different admin levels/permission sets)?   How should I have the database layout/hierarchy for this (3 completely separate site - again this will grow + a central admin site)?   Last question (that I can think of) - how much of a mammoth task really is this?     Any help would be greatly appreciated!   Thanks guys   James

I have a soap client written up that works well on small requests, but on large ones I face out of memory issues.

I want to be able to write the response directly to a file as an xml document, so I can use something like xpath.

When I try this even on small responses it seems to go into a loop:
  $infile = $client->Retrieve($criteria);
  $outfile = fopen('./sites/all/modules/cvent/data.txt', 'w');
  while (!feof($infile)) {
    fwrite($outfile, fread($infile, 2048));
    }

how can I put the data into a file straight from the response and still be economical on memory?

Hi Guys,

Theres always been one issue that I just cannot overcome (maybe because I keep pushing it to the backburner). Whenever debugging other peoples code I do the usual var_dump() or print_r() or vars which (sometimes) displays a monolithic array. I just find it very intimdating and can never really figure out whats going on. Is anyone else like this ? Any good reads on how to 'decode' such large arrays ?

Hey Guys,

I need a solution for uploading very large files. As I found PHP has some memory limits.
Is it even possible to upload files with a size of 4GB?

Hello,

Im trying to find a way to check around 500-600 links to check if they are alive.

It works fine for 5-6 links but once i add more links it just times out.

Is there a way i could process this so it does 1 link at a time or somthing ?





<?php

include("config.php");

$query = "SELECT * FROM `games` WHERE `r_fileserve` <> \"\" LIMIT 500";
$result = mysql_query($query);
while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

  $link_str = file_get_contents("$row[r_fileserve]");
  $pattern = '<input type="hidden" name="download" value="normal"/>';
  preg_match($pattern,$link_str,$match);

    if ($match[0] != null) {
      echo "Working <br />";
    } else {
      echo "File Down <br />";
    }

}

Have a client who has a Wordpress site that is running slowly and wants performance improved.  It is averaging on the order of 7 seconds or so to render basic pages.  No video, few images, etc.  The database has about 1 million records.  my primary question is, "When does Wordpress hit a point that the db is too large and will slow down a site?"  i understand there is no definitive answer, just trying to get a ballpark.  its noteworthy that about 700,000 of those records are in a table for the REDIRECTION plugin.  ive deactivated that plugin to eliminate those records as a factor.     as an fyi to anyone with any other ideas on how to speed the site up - ive deactivated all plugins with no effect - activated Twentyfourteen theme with no improvement ( to eliminate theme issues ) - uploaded a php page outside of Wordpress and it rendered immediately.  

Hello All

This was an online test, which I didn't do very well with, and am looking for guidance of where I went wrong.

The idea is you'd have a matrix $A with values -1, 0, 1 in each position, in rows M and column N where M,N can be up to 1000. The code is evaluated $k times where $k can be up to 1000 as well.
 
Starting at $A[0][0], evaluate the matrix where -1 means you go down a row and +1 means you go right one column. A 0 value means you continue along your previous direction.

After exiting a position, that positions value is multiplied by -1: 1 = (-1); (-1) = 1; 0 = 0
Once you exit the matrix either on the right or below, you stop and start over

The goal of the code is to return how many times you exited the bottom right corner, ending up below (not to the right) the matrix; When your spot is [M], [N+1]

Here is the code I wrote:

Code: [Select]
function eval_matrix( $A, $k ) {

$x = 0;
$y = 0;
// dir is x or y for up/down //
$dir = "y";

$ball_count = 0;

    // Get columns //
    $maxX = count($A);
    // Get rows //
    $maxY = count($A[0]);
   
// for $k times
for($i=0; $i<$k; $i++) {

// while we're within the matrix boundaries
while($x < $maxX && $y < $maxY) {

// get the value of our current position
$mode = $A[$x][$y];

// evaluate the value 0,1,-1
switch($mode) {
case 0:
if($dir =="y") {
$y++;
} else {
$x++;
}
break;

case -1:
// Change position value
$A[$x][$y] = 1;
$y++;
$dir = "y";
break;

case 1:
// Change position value
$A[$x][$y] = -1
$x++;
$dir = "x";

break;
}

}
if($x == $maxX-1 && $y == $maxY) {
$ball_count++;
}

$x = 0;
$y = 0;
$dir = "y";
}
return $ball_count;
}

It may be fairly ugly, but I'm looking for help with how to properly code this type of solution. Any pointers, resources, suggestions are greatly appreciated!

The script in question works perfectly on my WAMP installation.  It is designed to help a computer-challenged historian publish to the web using text CSV files without her having to use FTP or edit html files.  The largest data set is about 400KB.

The script is using TEXTAREA form input and uploading via POST.  Smaller files upload okay.  The larger ones fail with a blank screen (empty html) and usually only a few hundred bytes missing.  Example: 380KB data POST fails with 367KB stored on remote host.  No error message is saved to the remote host directory.

I suspected suhosin.post.max_value_length as it is set to 64K, but more than four times that amount is being stored on the remote host.  Can suhosin.post.max_value_length still be the problem?

The remote host is running:
PHP 5.2.5
Apache 2.2.11
Linux O/S

PHPINFO():

max_execution_time - 30
max_input_time - 60
memory_limit - 64M
post_max_size - 16M
upload_max_filesize - 16M

suhosin.post.max_value_length - 65384

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Hi, i am php programmer , i need help from php expert to create php apllication for large database .
I have database table called "profiles" which contains millions(1.5 to 2 million) of profile of the business companies. This table has 10 fields and there is one field named as "bname" which is name of company , i made this column full-text index for full-text search .

Now , i have to use this table for profile searching (using full-text search), profiles within particular cities , profiles within particular categories etc. This table contains millions of records so it will take lots of time for searching and fetching the reocrd(s) from this table.
Can anybody help me that how can i manage this large table to improve the performance and fast searching with php ? Is there any other technique (algorithm) to manage large database (like facebook,twiiter,orkut)?

I have a flash application that talks to upload.php

Say I upload a 500mb file; it will obviously take a little while to upload. Will the max_execution_time settings cause this to fail? Its set at 60 right now and the upload is obviously taking longer than 1 minute.
