PHP - Printing With Php
hello all,
i know that php is server side. if i have a printer attached to the server, can i have users press a button and have it print there? Similar TutorialsI have 64 rows of players and want each User to be able to choose to bookmark an player, as well as unbookmark it too. I have a bookmark table set up, and each time a User decides to bookmark(+) or unbookmark(-) an player a row is created in the data table. (Matching the player ID and User ID) That's working fine. A query reads the most recent row for each player to determine if there is a + or - button next to each player. Testing the query and adding some dummy data, that part of it works too. However, the issue is the initial state, which I want to be a +. Once I go live, the table will be empty, nothing for the query to return/produce. How do I create an initial state of a + with no rows and have it not used or swapped out when Users start clicking + or -?
$query = "SELECT b.id, bookmark,playerID,userID,p.id FROM a_player_bookmark b LEFT JOIN a_players p ON '". $id ."' = playerID WHERE userID = '". $userID ."'&&'". $id ."' = playerID ORDER BY b.id desc LIMIT 1 "; $results = mysqli_query($con,$query); echo mysqli_error($con); while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($results)) { echo $row['bookmark']; if($row['bookmark'] == 0) { echo '-'; // this is where a form goes to remove a bookmark } else { echo '+'; // this is where a form goes to add a bookmark } } I tried to get it with CASE, but I don't think that's the right path. I also looked at UNION. I was able to get it to produce an initial state of +, but it still printed the already made up sample data too (so I have three instances of ++ or +-). (Players 2, 4 and 4)
Here is the what the UNION query looked like: $query = "(SELECT b.id, bookmark,playerID,userID,p.id FROM a_player_bookmark b LEFT JOIN a_players p ON '". $id ."' = playerID WHERE userID = '". $userID ."'&&'". $id ."' = playerID ORDER BY b.id desc LIMIT 1) UNION (SELECT b.id, bookmark,playerID,userID,p.id FROM a_player_bookmark b LEFT JOIN a_players p ON '". $id ."' = playerID WHERE userID = '". $userID ."' ORDER BY p.id desc LIMIT 1) ";
I have a directory that I would like to allow users to print to PDF format for download. How can I do this and where do I start? hi everyone I have a small user & business Directory and for it, I use a .htaccess ReWrite. My .htaccess file looks like Code: [Select] RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^([^/.]+)$ index.php?q=$1 [QSA,L] so basically when I run Code: [Select] http://localhost/Johnsons/ then it treats that like Code: [Select] http://localhost/index.php?q=Johnsons I then do a PHP Query to find the result, I use the following; print "You looked up $_GET['q']"; $result = mysql_query("SELECT `name` FROM `directory` WHERE `name` = '".$_GET['q']."'"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { print $row['name']; } this all works fine. The problem I now have is that I have been sent some new data in a SQL database import file and it contains entries such as Dugāriy T-ī-Corā but when I try and run http://localhost/Dugāriy/ or http://localhost/T-ī-Corā/ it does not return the correct value and instead it either misses characters or it exchanges one character for another, (ā is swapped "a" as an example). It seems this is due to a mix of Special Characters & Accents within words such as ā ū ī I have tried altering the META charset tag without any luck, I have also tried print utf8_encode($_GET['q']); print urlencode($_GET['q']); but nothing seems to work. Any idea on how I can solve this? Thanks very much J I have the following php script and get data from a database and prints in on a page however it does not print a carriage return. Why can this be? The script: <?php include "database.inc"; mysql_select_db("php", $connection); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM orders", $connection); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_NUM)) { foreach ($row as $attribute) print "($attribute)"; print "\n"; } ?> Hi there, I'm new in PHP, my output is in at table, I designed it already, now I want to print it..how can I do that ? do i need JS ?

I found this code to parse a MySQL query to PDF, but it's for small address labels and I was wondering how to make it for 4x6 labels? <?php define('FPDF_FONTPATH','/home/directory/public_html/sub/font/'); require_once('fpdf.php'); //Connect to your database mysql_connect("localhost", "db_user","db_pw") or die ("Could not connect to database"); mysql_select_db("database_name") or die ("Could not select database"); $query = "SELECT employee_name, street_address, City, state, zip_code FROM employees ORDER BY `employee_name` "; $result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed'); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); function PrintAddressLabels($result){ $pdf=new FPDF(); $pdf->Open(); $pdf->AddPage(); $pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',14); $pdf->SetMargins(0,0); $pdf->SetAutoPageBreak(false); $x = 0; $y = 0; $i=0; while (TRUE) { if ($row=$result[$i]) { //positions set above $LabelText = sprintf("%s\n%s %s\n%s, %s, %s", $row['employee_name'], $row['street_address'], $row['City'], $row['state'], $row['zip_code']); Avery5160($x,$y,&$pdf,$LabelText); $y++; // next row if ($y == 10 ) { // end of page wrap to next column $x++; $y = 0; if ($x == 3 ) { // end of page $x = 0; $y = 0; $pdf->AddPage(); } } $i++; //counter through result } else { // Error quit printing break; } { $pdf->Output('mailing_labels.pdf','D'); } ?> Does anyone know where I can find some good resources/tutorials that covers how to use the PDF stuff with PHP or know how I can change this up to match for 4x6 at all? Any help or info is greatly appreciated! Thanks! Hi All, I am trying to generate a PDF report using the below code. the report is being generated perfectly. The problem that I face is that, while printing the report the browser disregards the "IF" condition that I have given in the code. Explanation : ----------------- It prints all the data in the MySQL database wherein I wanted the data to be printed only on a certain condition. How do I achieve this?

Can you guys please shed some light on this issue. Pretty pleeeaaassseee Hey guys. I have ran into a problem once again. I want to print a list of data I have in my database being monsters (ID, Name, HP, attack) I want to be able to print them fromt he database then get the "ID" of the monster being selected by a submit button to give the id of that row in some form (a POST?) so i can get the information for that monster in a SELECT when the button is hit. I will try show you what im trying to do. Code: [Select] //Grt the id from the table print at the bottom. $monster_id = $_POST["monsterid"]; //this is at the top to get stats on the monster the user has selected to fight $query="SELECT * FROM monsters WHERE id='$monster_id'"; $result=mysql_query($query); $result=mysql_fetch_array($result); $monster_exp=$result["exp"]; $exp_dead = round(($monster_exp/100) * 10); $monster_hp =$result["hp"]; $goldwon =$result["gold"]; $mindam =$result["mindam"]; $maxdam =$result["maxdam"]; // my battle code goes here using the stats I want above. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ //This is where the user selects the monster they want to fight. $query="SELECT * FROM monsters"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); mysql_close(); $i=0; <form action="training.php" method="post"> <table border='0' width="400" class="tablee"> <tr> <th>Monster</th> <th>Level</th> <th>HP</th> <th>Protection</th> <th>Fight?</th> </tr> <? $query="SELECT * FROM monsters"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); mysql_close(); $i=0; while ($i < $num) { $id=mysql_result($result,$i,"id"); $name=mysql_result($result,$i,"name"); $level=mysql_result($result,$i,"lvl"); $hp=mysql_result($result,$i,"health"); $pro=mysql_result($result,$i,"pro"); ?> <tr> <th><? echo $mon_name; ?> </th> <th><? echo $mon_level; ?> </th> <th><? echo $mon_hp; ?> </th> <th><? echo $mon_pro; ?> </th> <th><input type="hidden" value="<? echo $mon_id; ?>" name="monsterid" /> <input type="submit" value="Fight!" name="submit" /></th> </tr> <? $i++; } ?> </table> </form> I hope this makes sense because I am really having problems. My gues is use an array but I could get it to work. PS: I did a get and it sends ALL the IDs instead of the selected row. Thanks for any help guys, Ruddy Hi I have a problem that I must admit I have come across before but I can't remember the fix. When I do a simple select query then print it out using a while statement, I can't get it to print out the first record of my results. I am sure this is to do with the execute statement but I can't get it to work properly. I currently have test data in so I know this should bring out 6 records but it only lists 5 Hi, Firstly, these are my tables: CLASS class_id class_name 1 Donkeys 2 Monkeys 4 Classic 9 Humans COURSES class_id courses_number 9 6 9 2 1 3 2 2 I would like to print average course_number for each class_name. So for class_name Donkeys would have average course_number 3. And for clasS_name Humans, average course_number is 4. Do you get my point? Gah, can anyone help. We've written a web app, it was all tested and doing what it should and at the eleventh hour I've hit a snag. We use TCDPF to create printed reports from a MySQL database. It does what it should when accessed over the 'net however I've just been informed that their firewall won't allow Activ X content through and they won't (as opposed to can't) create an exception to trust our site. So, I need a workaround. Option 1) Host a complete copy on their internal network (exceptionally undesirable as it becomes unmanageable). Option 2) Split the printing components out and host that on a web server on their internal network. Option 3) Find another way of producing PDF output from a MySQL web app that can traverse a strict firewall. My preference is for option 2, but I'd like some opinions/thoughts on the best way to proceed before I code myself into a corner once more Thus far I've tried using an include to a different server but it is spitting it's dummy at the moment. Does anyone have any opinions on the *easiest* way to work around the problem? Thanks, Rob |
