PHP - Checking To See If All Fields In A Row Have A Value
Scenario:
each row contains an ID, title, description, price, and up to 5 images. There are not always 5 images stored in each row. The images are stored as a file path which is then pulled out of the DB and used to display an image via HTML. I need to do some sort of loop/check that looks at the contents of a particular row (actually all rows in this particular table) and then decide how many times to loop through the images to display them all correctly on the webpage. I could statically set a variable for each column but then it would have a space for an image but nothing would show. I really want this to be able to only load the images that are stored in the DB. Any help on how I can go about this? thanks -beemer Similar TutorialsHi. I've been doing tutorials all day on checking for blank fields and I have wrote a function to do so. For now I am only checking one field to see if it works. If I miss that field out (first name) It works great and displays the correct error message. Problem I have is if I fill in the whole form and send it I get an Inturnal server error. I will post my code to show you. can anyone see whats going wrong? I have \\ some of the code for now because I my keep it if I cant do this error check. session_start(); $validation_id = strval(time()); if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $first_name = check_input($_POST['first_name'],"Please enter a first name"); $last_name = check_input($_POST['last_name']); $DOB = check_input($_POST['DOB']); $sex = check_input($_POST['sex']); $email = check_input($_POST['email']); $username = check_input($_POST['username']); $password = check_input($_POST['password']); $agree = check_input($_POST['agreed']); $creation_date = check_input($_POST['creation_date']); $user_type = check_input($_POST['member_type']); $access_level = check_input($_POST['access_level']); $validation = check_input($_POST['validation_id']); $club_user =check_input($_POST['user_type']); // $first_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['first_name']); // $last_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['last_name']); // $DOB = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['DOB']); // $sex = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['sex']); // $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); // $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); // $password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); // $agree = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['agreed']); // $creation_date = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['creation_date']); // $user_type = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['member_type']); // $access_level = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['access_level']); // $validation = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['validation_id']); // $club_user = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['user_type']); $insert_member= "INSERT INTO Members (`first_name`,`last_name`,`DOB`,`sex`,`email`,`username`,`password`,`agree`,`creation_date`,`usertype`,`access_level`,`validationID`) VALUES ('".$first_name."','".$last_name."','".$DOB."','".$sex."','".$email."','".$username."','".$password."','".$agree."','".$creation_date."','".$user_type."','".$access_level."', '".$validation."')"; $insert_member_now= mysql_query($insert_member) or die(mysql_error()); $url = "thankyou.php?name=".$_POST['username']; header('Location: '.$url); and the form <form method="POST" name="member_accounts" id="member_accounts"> <input name="first_name" type="text" class="form_fields" value="<?php echo $_POST['first_name'];?>" size="20" /> <input name="last_name" type="text" class="form_fields" value="<?php echo $_POST['last_name'];?>" size="20" /> <input name="submit" type="submit" class="join_submit" id="submit_member" value="Create Account" /> <? function check_input($data, $problem='') { $data= trim($data); $data= stripslashes($data); $data= htmlspecialchars($data); if ($problem && strlen($data) ==0) { die($problem); } return $data; } ?> Below I am checking a user level and if they are level one they see some of the form, and if level two they see additional options. What they have already filled out is to show in the text field. Before I was doing the user level check it worked fine. Even now if something is put in a field it saves in the DB but it will not show in the fields on the form. // Everyone sees <tr> <td><input name="" type="text" id="" value="<?php echo $row_settings['FieldA']; ?>"> </tr> <tr> <td><input name="" type="text" id="" value="<?php echo $row_settings['FieldB']; ?>"> </tr> // Check if level two and display if they are. <?php } if (checkUser()) { ?> <tr> <td><input name="" type="text" id="" value="<?php echo $row_settings['num1']; ?>"> </tr> <tr> <td><input name="" type="text" id="" value="<?php echo $row_settings['num2']; ?>"> </tr> <tr> <td><input name="" type="text" id="" value="<?php echo $row_settings['num3']; ?>"> </tr> <?php } ?> // Additional things everyone sees even level one. <tr> <td><input name="" type="text" id="" value="<?php echo $row_settings['num4']; ?>"> </tr> <tr> So even <?php echo $row_settings['num4']; ?> will not show/work after the <?php } ?> Any thoughts? Thanks in advance everyone. Hey guys,
Thank you in advance... here is my situation, I have a form with three (3) fields in it, the 'student name' is unlimited textfield with an "add more" button to it and I have two select fields ('number of shirts' and 'trophies') that depend on the number of entries for 'student name'...
I want to create the select fields based on this math, for as many 'student name' entries:
1- i want to have the select form for 'number of shirts' to be 0 up to that number... so if there are 6 'student name' entries, the select options will be 0,1,3,4,5,6,7
2- I want to have the select form for 'trophies' to be 5 'student name' entries to 1 'trophies', for example if there are 6 'student name' entries, the select options will be 0,1... if there are 13 entries, options will be 0,1,2... So if there are less than 5 'student name' entries, the select field will not show (hidden)
of course if there are no 'student name' entries, these two fields won't show up (hidden)
let me know if that make sense and ANY help or directions will be GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks guys!
I coded small funny script I tested it in three hosting ww.rufaa.net dallawat.com/new ibuj.org but I don't know why in the first link, my script seem slow not like the other second and third links Hi, I'm creating an upload section that limits users to upload the following file types: .zip .rar .doc .jpeg .gif When getting the type for .pdf files, it comes up as: application/force-download and for .rar files it comes up as: application/x-download If I do a check that says: if ($type=="application/force-download" || $type=="application/x-download") then will users only be able to upload .PDF and .RAR files? I'm assuming these two types will allow other formats as well. If this is the case, how can I check the extension of the file before the user is able to upload it. I was thinking of somehow capturing the last 3 letters of the filename, and then doing the check that way, except I'm not sure how to go about this. Any insight appreciated! I have two arrays of keywords that I'm pulling from the database. I'm wanting to compare those two arrays and see if ANY of the contents are the same, if they are push that result into another array for later use. while($row_rsCWGetupsell = $cartweaver->db->db_fetch_assoc($rsCWGetupsell)) { $b = array_unique(array_filter(explode(",", preg_replace( '/\s*/m', '', $row_rsCWGetupsell["product_keywords"])), "strlen")); $a = array_unique(array_filter(explode(",", preg_replace( '/\s*/m', '', $row_rsCWGetProduct["product_keywords"])), "strlen")); if($a IN $b) // <--- this is where the comparison should be! $list[] = $row_rsCWGetupsell; } Okay I need some help. I want to check a MySQL DB and then if it says 0 then don't do anything if it says anything else echo out what's there. I have tried for about a hour now. $characterIDs = explode(',', $_POST['characterIDList']); After the explode I want to take all those values and do a select statement in a database table for any of the values that match any of the values inside that variable variable. Not sure how to do this since there is no limit to how may there could be. Can someone help me to get this code working...

It is basically a point system, where the staff can award points users of the site.

Hello! Does anyone know an effective way to track inactive idlers in daily basis? So that it will count the amount of days no data has been posted to the table. E.g. User posts latest data and inserts timestamp 1282228120 which reads Thursday, August 19th 2010, 14:28:40 (GMT) The days for inactivity should output as 8 days because no data has been posted from 20th August to today - 28th August. Anyway I can achieve this? Any information is appreciated, thanks. Hello all, it's been a while! Good to be back. I am having trouble with a script I'm trying to modify to seach for domains with specific extensions. Now, I have never done any domain checking before and I'm a little bewildered. The script uses an array and checks the input against each extension using the array. Each line looks similar to: Code: [Select] '.com' => array('whois.crsnic.net','No match for'), What does the whois.crsnic.net mean? I assume it's a register/database of domains? Hi friends I have following code Code: [Select] function UseOfSSL($domain_name) { $site = ($domain_name); $port = 443; $fp = fsockopen($site,$port,$errno,$errstr,10); if(!$fp) { echo "Not Installed"; } else{ echo "Yes, it is installed"; fclose($fp); } } If domain name from $domain_name has installed SSL, it will show it is installed else not installed. Problem is that I tried this with both types of sites, those who are using SSL and those who are not and always, it says Yes, it is installed. 443 is used because https uses port 443 What is the cause ? Hey In my spare time, I am working on my PHP framework. Now, to help with development and quickly discover where I miss a type cast, I have adopted to check all parameters that are passed to a method using a function. For instance: public function __construct(&$target = null, $depth = 1){ $this->validateArguments( array(1 => 'int'), array(1 => $depth) ); And the code that triggers the exception: public function testPhpFreakType(){ $obj = 1; $p = new Xcms_DataStructures_Pointer($obj, "1"); } Code: [Select] 0: |--------------------------------------------------| 1: |--Exception: 4cfe2e86ca5970.22624423 - Full Trace | 2: | Tue, 07 Dec 2010 13:54:30 +0100 3: |-Class: 4: | Xcms_Exceptions_InvalidArgument 5: |-Message: 6: | Argument #1 of Xcms_DataStructures_Pointer:__construct() is no _null:int 7: | Stack offset: 3 8: | 9: |-Trace 10: | #0 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\exceptions\invalid.argument.helper.class.php(133): Xcms_Exceptions_InvalidArgumentHelper::factory(1, '_null:int', NULL, 2) 11: | #1 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\basic.class.php(80): Xcms_Exceptions_InvalidArgumentHelper::validateArguments(Array, Array, Array, 1) 12: | #2 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\data.structures\pointer.class.php(49): Xcms_Basic->validateArguments(Array, Array) 13: | #3 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\data.structures\pointer.test.php(73): Xcms_DataStructures_Pointer->__construct(1, '1') 14: | #4 [internal function]: Xcms_DataStructures_PointerTest->testPhpFreakType() 15: | #5 C:\xampp\php\PEAR\PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase.php(737): ReflectionMethod->invokeArgs(Object(Xcms_DataStructures_PointerTest), Array) 16: | #6 C:\xampp\php\PEAR\PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase.php(627): PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase->runTest() 17: | #7 C:\xampp\php\PEAR\PHPUnit\Framework\TestResult.php(629): PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase->runBare() 18: | #8 C:\xampp\php\PEAR\PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase.php(575): PHPUnit_Framework_TestResult->run(Object(Xcms_DataStructures_PointerTest)) 19: | #9 C:\xampp\php\PEAR\PHPUnit\Framework\TestSuite.php(766): PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase->run(Object(PHPUnit_Framework_TestResult)) 20: | #10 C:\xampp\php\PEAR\PHPUnit\Framework\TestSuite.php(742): PHPUnit_Framework_TestSuite->runTest(Object(Xcms_DataStructures_PointerTest), Object(PHPUnit_Framework_TestResult)) 21: | #11 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\testing\manager.class.php(83): PHPUnit_Framework_TestSuite->run() 22: | #12 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\testing\manager.class.php(56): Xcms_Testing_Manager->testClass(Object(ReflectionClass)) 23: | #13 D:\www\xcms_rev\cache\pkg\scripting\script_1.php(3): Xcms_Testing_Manager->run(Object(Xcms_Url_DefaultRequest)) 24: | #14 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\util.lib.php(340): include('D:\www\xcms_rev...') 25: | #15 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\packages\scripting\controllers\scripting.controller.php(66): Xcms_Util::sandboxedInclude('cache/pkg/scrip...', Array) 26: | #16 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\mvc\controllers\default.controller.php(210): Xcms_Packages_Scripting_Controllers_ScriptingController->execute(Object(Xcms_Packages_Scripting_Models_ScriptModel), Object(Xcms_Templating_Context)) 27: | #17 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\mvc\controllers\default.controller.php(170): Xcms_Mvc_Controllers_DefaultController->runScript(1, 0, Object(Xcms_Templating_Context)) 28: | #18 D:\www\xcms_rev\core\mvc\controllers\default.controller.php(132): Xcms_Mvc_Controllers_DefaultController->runScripts(0, 0, Array, Array, 1, 0) 29: | #19 D:\www\xcms_rev\index.php(15): Xcms_Mvc_Controllers_DefaultController->run() 30: | #20 {main} 31: |--------------------------------------------------| I think this speeds up my development quite a bit, because I can catch errors very early in the development process. I can give multipe possibilities of what is allowed for each parameter, not just a single possibility. Also, it is possible to register custom type/validity-checks on both global and local scope. One thing I do worry about, however, is the the performance. Of course, I could just make the funciton do nothing in production code, if it takes too much time, or I could write a script to remove all calls to that function. When I started learning python a while back, the concept to just code to interfaces instead of types seemed very intuitive and made my code much more flexible. Of course that is what I do with PHP as well, but I it's not entirely the same. So now, coming back at my PHP code and having introduced features of static languages such as type checking, I worry about whether that is the right approach. What are your thoughts on the matter? so here's the thing, ive downloaded mysql front and easy php , the HTML code ive written till now is <html> <head> </head> <body> <h1>Registration Page</h1> <form name="form" method="post" action="final-SignUp1.php"> <p>UserName <input type="text" name="username" /></p> <p>Password <input type="password" name="password" /></p> <p>Confirm Password<input type="password" name="confirm_password" /></p> <p>Firstname <input type="text" name="firstname" /></p> <p>Middlename <input type="text" name="middlename" /></p> <p>Lastname <input type="text" name="lastname" /></p> <p>address <input type="text" name="address" /></p> <p>city <input type="text" name="city" /></p> <p>Zipcode <input type="text" name="zip_code" /></p> <p>Phone number <input type="text" name="telephone_number" /></p> <p>Email address <input type="text" name="email" /></p> <p>Confirm Email <input type="text" name="confirm_email" /></p> <input type="submit" value="Register"> <input type="reset" value="Clear" /></p> </form> </body> </html> which i would like to link to this php code <?php $usr=$_POST["username"]; $pass=$_POST["password"]; $confirm=$_POST["confirm_password"]; $firstname=$_POST["firstname"]; $middlename=$_POST["middlename"]; $lastname=$_POST["lastname"]; $address=$_POST["address"]; $city=$_POST["city"]; $zipcode=$_POST["zip_code"]; $phonenumber=$_POST["`telephone_number`"]; $emailaddress=$_POST["email"]; $confirmemailaddress=$_POST["confirm_email"]; $db=mysql_connect("localhost","root",""); mysql_select_db("final-signup1",$db); $q="INSERT INTO final-signup1 VALUES ('$usr','$pass','$confirm','$firstname','$middlename','$lastname','$address','$city','$zipcode', '$phonenumber','$emailaddress','$cofirmemailaddress')"; mysql_query($q); mysql_close(); ?> now on mysql-front the database ive set till now is as follows i know something is wrong with my code, because the data i enter in the register page isnt going to the database. any help is greatly appreciated thank you I don't know precisely how to put it so i will give an example: suppose you have a search form with input fields for: -an age range, -a data range, -for the sex, -postal code as soon as the user would fill in one of these input fields, a query should be generated including a condition doing something with the inputted value. For example, the user fills in maxAge, the the query should say: SELECT * FROM table WHERE age >= maxAge; Filling more than one criterion then would do .= " AND criteria (condition) inputvalue " etc... My question comes to the part about: how to check if there is already a WHERE in the clause and how to put WHERE or AND for every criterion. Since doing like above, i won't be able to search for another criterion if i don't select maxAge first because then there would be no WHERE in the sql clause. Hopefully i've put it clear thanks in advance |
