PHP - To Add An Alphabet In My Auto Generated Id
Hi,
I have a question here. Currently my $tutor_id is auto incremental in my SQL, and it is in running numbers. However I will like to add a 'T' in front of the id. Example: Currently, our id number is 1 2 3 4 etc. Would like to achieve T1 T2 T3 T4 etc. How do I do it? Below is my code as well. Please kindly advise. Thanks /**INSERT into tutor_id table to create a new id for new tutors**/ $query = "INSERT INTO tutor_id (id) " . "VALUES ('$id')"; $results = mysqli_query($dbc, $query) or die(mysqli_error()); $tutor_id = mysqli_insert_id($dbc); /**INSERT into tutor table**/ $query1 = "INSERT INTO tutor (tutor_id, email) " . "VALUES ('$tutor_id', '$email')"; $results1 = mysqli_query($dbc, $query1) or die(mysqli_error()); Similar TutorialsHi Mates, I want to know how to create auto generated pages in submit button with the existing templates...Wordpress users may easily understand what actually i mean...i am using the code that is creating a page but not getting the desired page name and giving a blank page that is without any formatting... Code: [Select] <?php $content = <<<EOL <head> </head> <body> New page EOL; include ('config.php'); mysql_select_db("$db_name"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM text ORDER BY ID") or die(mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) { echo $row['title']; echo "<br />"; } $content .= <<<EOL </body> </html> EOL; $file = '$result' . '.php'; $open = fopen($file, "w"); fwrite($open, $content); fclose($open); ?> I am putting title in my URL whenever a new auto generated page is generates, so if i use single word tile then it is fine but when there is more that two words in the title it shows space in every word and therefor in title too. how can i add this hyphen or any other special char to my URL so it would look like? i.e. If i use title to MY FIRST WEB PAGE.php, what should i do so i can make it like MY-FIRST-WEB-PAGE.php I remember reading about a PHP operator that will allow me to use information from a previous MySQL entry or something. What I am doing is executing this via PHP: $query = "INSERT INTO orders (id, content, events) VALUES (null, '".mysql_real_escape_string($_SESSION['order']['cart']['content'])."', '".date(DATE_RFC822)."\nORDER WRITTEN TO DATABASE\n')"; Then later on in the script I need to use: $query = "INSERT INTO orders (events) VALUES ('".date(DATE_RFC822)."\nEXECUTING PAYMENT\n') where id = XXXXX"; Where "XXXX" is the id. "id" is auto incrementing which is why I used "null" in the first query. So, I need to use the id number that was incremented. What was that PHP operator again?? im making a system where people can search by letter of my forum users here is my code: Code: [Select] foreach(range('A','Z') as $i) $l.= $i; now i am echoing out $l wherever i want How do I make it so I i can add a hyperlink or a URL for each character? (inside the foreach) so I don't have to manually do it I need to create a SEO friendly string only from alphanumeric and characters of my native language. It is sinhala. My expected string should be something like this: $myString = "this-is-a-දහසක්-බාධක-දුක්-කම්කටොලු-මැදින්-ලෝකය-දිනන්නට-වෙර-දරන"; I am using a function to create the string like this. And that function is as follow: function seoUrl($string) { //Lower case everything $string = strtolower($string); //Make alphanumeric (removes all other characters) $string = preg_replace("/[^a-z0-9_\s-]/", "", $string); //Clean up multiple dashes or whitespaces $string = preg_replace("/[\s-]+/", " ", $string); //Convert whitespaces and underscore to dash $string = preg_replace("/[\s_]/", "-", $string); return $string; } This function only works for English characters and output of above string as below: $title = seoUrl("this-is-a-දහසක්-බාධක-දුක්-කම්කටොලු-මැදින්-ලෝකය-දිනන්නට-වෙර-දරන"); echo $title; // this-is-a-
I modified this function using `mb_ereg_replace` as below: function seoUrl($string) { //Lower case everything //$string = strtolower($string); //Make alphanumeric (removes all other characters) $string = mb_ereg_replace("/[^a-z0-9_\s-]/", "", $string); //Clean up multiple dashes or whitespaces $string = mb_ereg_replace("/[\s-]+/", " ", $string); //Convert whitespaces and underscore to dash $string = mb_ereg_replace("/[\s_]/", "-", $string); return $string; } But is not working for me. Can anybody tell me how to modify above function to get all my characters (including my native language characters) Hope somebody may help me out. Thank you. Edited January 28, 2019 by tharathe idea on what im doing is like a converter, like showing what your name would look like with certain images per letter, when you input text (your name for example) and when you press the submit button you would get a series of images in a row that represent each character that you typed.
here is the example that i did...
<html> <?php So a project I have simply to learn how it is done is to make an auto updating sitemap with a auto submitter. I have been doing a little research on sitemaps but haven't found much in the way of a tutorial or white paper or similar, anyway I was wondering if I am on the right track or not. What I was thinking for the auto-updating sitemap is since site maps are XML, when an article is published using my custom CMS/Blogging system, I make it rewrite the sitemap appending the new URL that will be generated. Then for the auto-submit, I can either make it a cron job or just manual press, but it would go though a for list of URLs, replacing the end part with my site map url. I think that is how it would be done. If you have a better idea, or can point out an article so I can understand a lot more with sitemaps, I will appreciate it, I am trying to learn as much as possible, I have gone to the offical website (sitemaps.org) but it doesn't have what I am looking for. Thanks, James //php code <?php include_once('con.php'); if(!empty($_GET['search'])) { $search = $connect->prepare('SELECT * FROM posts WHERE title LIKE :search'); $search->bindValue(':search', '%'.$_GET['search'].'%', PDO::PARAM_STR); $search->execute(); ?> <?php while($row = $search->fetch()) {?> <li class="result" onClick="searchValue('<?php echo $row['title'];?>')"><?php echo $row['title'];?></li> <?php } ?> <?php } ?> //ajax $('#inputsch').keyup(function(){ $.ajax({ type: 'GET', url: 'fetch.php', data:'search='+$(this).val(), success: function(data){ $('#box').show(); $('#box').html(data); } }); }); }); function searchValue(val) { $('#inputsch').val(val); $('#box').hide(); } //search box <form action="search.php"> <input id="inputsch" type="text" name="search" placeholder="search..." autocomplete="off" autofocus> <button type="submit" value="search" >search</button> </form> <div id="box"></div> //the problem here is when i click the result is only added to input, but i want it to autosubmit
On a website currently under development the URL does not change when navigating around on the page. It always displays the root URL. This is the script that should generate the links: $URLvars=substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], strrpos($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],"/")+1); $vatLink=$URLvars; $thisPageURL=$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; if(strpos($thisPageURL, "secure/locktech/")!==false)$thisPageURL=substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], 16); $prodLink="http://www.lock-tech.co.uk".$thisPageURL; It used to. However, the server has changed and it does not any more. Is it maybe because the 2 paths (http://www.lock-tech.co.uk and secure/locktech/) must be changed according to the new server? Does anyone know what exactly do these paths stand for? I understand that one of them is the root path but what does the path in the line Code: [Select] if(strpos($thisPageURL, "secure/locktech/")!==false)$thisPageURL=substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], 16); stand for?

What am I doing wrong? Hi. I have a rating site where users fill in a name of what they are rating, comments about it and a rating and submit it to my database. I then have another page which shows all of these entries but only the name and overall rating using php. What I want is for users to click on the name and it take them to a separate page which displays all the comments and ratings for that item. As users can add items to rate I cant set up a page for each manually so was wondering how to do it dynamically. Everything i throw into google leads me in the wrong direction though. If someone could point me to a good tutorial or give me an idea about what to search id be very grateful. Cheers. I currently have a query that compiles a League Standings Table (the full code is below) and generate the ranking with Code: [Select] @rownum := @rownum+1 AS rank This works fine for the main standings page but I want to use the row numbers elsewhere. Each team has it's own page which uses 'team.team_id' as its 'recordID'. On these pages I would like to show that particular teams ranking in the standings. The two options I see would be to run the query filtering by 'team.team_id' but that would only return the one record so ranking would always be '1' or run the whole query and then somehow find which ranking relates to 'team.team_id' (something that may be possible with VIEWS but the database is running on MySQL4) but I cannot figure out how to get around this. For example, if the standings were Rank Team 1 Rovers 2 United 3 City 4 Rangers 5 Town 6 Athletic 7 Wanderers 8 Hotspur On the 'Rangers' page I would want it to show 'RANKING: 4' and on the 'Athletic' page it would show 'RANKING: 6'. On top of this I would want to show a small version of the rankings with one team above and one team below (it would actually be two teams but I will keep it simple until I understand it!) so one again given the two examples above I would get RANGERS PAGE Rank Team 3 City 4 Rangers 5 Town ATHLETIC PAGE Rank Team 5 Town 6 Athletic 7 Wanderers The query is $i = 1; $ht = "g.home_team = t.team_id"; $at = "g.away_team = t.team_id"; $hw = "g.home_goals > g.away_goals"; $aw = "g.home_goals < g.away_goals"; $d = "g.home_goals = g.away_goals"; $hg ="g.home_goals"; $ag ="g.away_goals"; $table = mysql_query("SELECT t.team_name as Tm, @rownum := @rownum+1 AS rank , (sum(CASE WHEN (".$ht."

Can someone explain why @rownum := @rownum+1 AS rank causes $i to increment by one? I found the code while searching and do not understand why $i is necessary unless it is a reserved reference. The way the code looks, I should be able to output the ranking using 'rank' but that does not work. I have no problem with how it does things, it would just be nice to understand! I'm wanting to make a sitemap for my website but as it's quite big there are a lot of url's I need to include.

It basically just pulls the neceassary info and images from the user's Steam XML stream and uses GD to arrange it nicely. A link to an example is here. Now, the trouble I have is that it saves the image as a .php file (it can be downloaded as a png but not linked to as one, images.php.png doesn't exist). I can navigate to the webpage and save as a png but for obvious reasons can't link to it as an image (making the forum signature part kind of hard to pull off). Is there any easy way (I'm unspeakably bad with php) that I can save the php graphic as a PNG to an external page (for example /sig_name.png or /images.php?id=name.png)? Thanks for any help Ok, so I currently have this http://pastebin.com/cCgyavs0 snippet that generates links to the previous, next and last page based on the current page (GET variable) or the total item count in the MySQL DB to then use forms as links by inserting the URLs into the action attribute. I did this cause I don't wanna use images as links, btw :P It kinda works - I get links like: shop.php?page=1 shop.php?page=12 shop.php?page=14 shop.php?page=225 When I'm on page 13 of 225 for example. Though when I click one of the buttons, I always get redirected to "shop.php?". :/ Hey all, I have a relationship where a zone has many posts and a category has many zones but a zone can also have many categories. The zones are basically parts of a page, such as the main area and sidepanel stored in database as records with name fields such as 'panel' and 'main'. There's a serious flaw right now and I would like to know the best solution to address it. Right now I access the posts of a zone of a category like this: Code: [Select] $category->zone->get()->post->get(); The above ends up displaying all the posts in the database for any given category because when category is selected, it searches for the associating zones, and then selects all posts related to those zones, which is wrong. i want to select all posts of the zones associated with that particular category. Current database: Code: [Select] posts id zone_id zones id name categories_zones id zone_id category_id categories id What should I do? Add a category_id column to the posts table and relate the post directly to the category as well as directly to the zones table so the post table would have two foreign keys: category_id and zone_id Would this be the most effective thing to do given my requirements? Thanks for response. Hi, I am trying to get some charecters to display properly in emails that are sent via a form on my site. The finnish characters ä and ö come out as squares when viewed in Outlook. I have tried various encoding types such as UTF-8 and Western European (dreamweaver), both as the script encoding and as the encoding in the mail() function. $body = 'Sähköposti:' ; mail($salesEmail, "Call Back Request", $body, "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\nFrom: $salesEmail") ; = 'S�hk�posti:' or just squares in Outlook. I have also tried hard coding them as ä and ö and the symbol literals to no effect. Does anyone know what is causing this? |
