PHP - Storing Multiple Message In Database
I need some advice, I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this or not but I'll give it a try. I am creating a website for a small group of people to be able to message back and forth. I ran into a problem when doing the whole reply to a message option. I dont want to have each individual message as a new entry in my database, and then look for each message in that conversation when loading the conversation, I thought about inserting something like +=+=+=+=+=+= in between messages in the conversation so that when i pull up that conversation i could just separate the messages into an array by looking for that +=+=+=+=+=+= in the string of text and separating all the messages out. I want to know if anyone knows a better way of doing this or if this is a good way to go. thanks for any suggestions.
Similar TutorialsOkay I'm a newbie at PHP but was trying to write a counter for my website to count the amount of times a specific button is clicked. My desired outcome is as follows: If the form submit button "like" or "dislike" is clicked, get user's ip and check to see if it already exists in the database. If it exists, don't increment the count (of either button), otherwise log the ip and increment the count (of whichever button is clicked) by 1. Currently I've got the increment working (testing only the like button at the moment) and I've got the ip being stored into the database, but cannot get the comparison to work. Each time the button is clicked it adds the ip address into the database instead of disallowing it. Note: there are two different tables--one storing the ip (counter) and one storing the like clicks (Designs) (dunno if there's a better way?) Excuse my newbieness. The problem area: (like button only): if(isset($_POST['like'])) { $ip_address = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $query = mysql_query("SELECT ip FROM counter WHERE ip = '$ip_address'"); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($query); if ($num_rows > 0) { die ("You've already clicked the button!"); } else { mysql_query("INSERT INTO counter VALUES ($ip_address)"); mysql_query("UPDATE Designs SET up = up + 1 WHERE ref = 'cataclysm'"); } } $select = mysql_query("SELECT up FROM Designs"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($select)) { echo $row['up']; } Hello,

Hi I am using Zen-Cart to which I have made significant changes. Two years ago I managed to change the Products Sort Order from Integer to Decimal(5,2) to store books such as 1, 1.5, 1.75, 2 etc. Regrettably we had a major server issue and I also lost the new coding. Having restored everything else whenever we enter a book series number such as 1.5 it only stores as 1. To date the zen-Cart forums have been unable to offer a solution so I am reaching out to see if anyone else can advise me of how to get this working again please.
Thanks in advance Owen
I've got an array like this: $firstquarter = array('January', 'February', 'March'); Then I'm adding it to a MySQL DB as follows: $insert = "INSERT INTO sometable (months) VALUES ('$firstquarter') "; $insertresult = mysql_query($insert) or die ('Error in Insert query: ' . mysql_error()); When I use PHPMyAdmin I see a this value stored in the DB: 'Array' Can I retrieve the values, by index, from this database field?? I have a Form that has 10 questions. When the User completes the Form, each Response needs to be a separate record. (My database has a many-to-many relationship with a "member" and "question" table joined by a "answer" table in the middle. And each Form field will go into its own unique record to make the many-to-many work.) At the top of my Form I have... if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=='POST'){ // Form was Submitted (Post). // Initialize Errors Array. $errors = array(); // Trim all form data. $trimmed = array_map('trim', $_POST); // ************************ // Validate Form Data. * // ************************ // Validate Answer1. if (strlen($trimmed['answer01']) >= 2 && strlen($trimmed['answer01']) <= 1024){ // Valid Answer1. $answerArray[0] = $trimmed['answer01']; }else{ // Invalid Answer1. $errors['question01'] = 'Answer must be 2-1024 characters.'; }//End of VALIDATE ANSWER1 // Validate Answer2. // : // : // Validate Answer10. And down farther in my code, I have each Field in my Form set up like this... Code: [Select] <!-- Question 1 --> <label for="question01">1.) Why did you decide to start your own business?</label> <textarea id="question1" name="answer01" cols="60" rows="8"><?php if (isset($answerArray[0])){echo htmlentities($answerArray[0], ENT_QUOTES);} ?></textarea> <?php if (!empty($errors['question01'])){ echo '<span class="error">' . $errors['question01'] . '</span>'; } ?> So if my Form works like I am thinking, all 10 Form Fields would end up here... Code: [Select] $answerArray[0] $answerArray[1] $answerArray[2] $answerArray[3] $answerArray[4] $answerArray[5] $answerArray[6] $answerArray[7] $answerArray[8] $answerArray[9] First of all, does that sound correct? If that part is correct, then how do I take the $answerArray[] and INSERT each value into a different record in my "answer" table?? Hope that makes sense?! Thanks, Debbie This is more of a database architect question.
I am building a CMS for website development. I am ready to use it for the first time on one of my clients. Now, my issue is is how to set up some or one of my table(s) for some areas that my client wants to be able to change in the admin section.
In their website on the front page, I put together this nice block slider. Its 6 blocks with text, a background image and nice effects. At first it was always going to be static, which was no issue at all, but later they came to me and asked if they could be able to change words in the boxes themselves in the admin section..
Of course this can be easily done by creating a table that is associated with this home page block thing and each row in the table will correspond to one of the blocks on the home page.
But I believe there might be an easier way to store this type of data without having to create another table for every feature the client wants to edit, for example they also want to be able to edit a slider on another page.
The WordPress database then came into my mind and how they store most of their data as JSON. So I was then thinking of creating a table named 'modules' for examples with three columns (id, title, data). Then inside the data column store the editable fields as a JSON string object.
For example a row could like like :
1, "Front Page Box Slider", {"slider-home" : [ {"data" : "value", "img_1", "value1"}, {"data" : "value", "img_2", "value2"} ]}
I've been doing a bit of research on this and people have just been saying, never do this if you do want your data to be searched through, which I don't.
Can anyone tell me why or why not I should do this, or maybe a better solution to my problem?
Thank you

I have a card database and everything works perfectly besides one thing..
I can't store

Here's all the code you would need to find the issue.

Edited by OsirisElKeleni, 05 October 2014 - 12:29 PM. hi everyone, i just signed up on this forum. I have issue, my clients wants to save time by copying data into a textarea and then letting the script process it and store it in database. the problem is never done that. the data is made up for eg. Title Mr Name Radio86 Address Chiltren House etc.... how do i split this data up and store it in database, btw ive just started programming in php in other words newbie Please help me, thanks in advance To me it is logical to store config data such as site name, meta, etc in a php file rather than storing ina table in mysql database. This will reduce the number of calls to the mysql database, as these are key parameters and needed in every page. But, a well-developed CMS like Wordpress uses a mysql table to store such basic data. What is your idea? Ain't it better to reduce mysql loads? I am working on a kind of CMS for my own website which no one else will be using but me as a way of improving my php skills, and am having problems with retrieving data from the database that holds both text and php code. I have searched the web and found that i should be using eval() for the code to be executed before it is send to the browser but cannot get it to work and can't find my mistake(s). the php code will always be the same, and is supposed to retrieve the id number of a page to use in a link (and works fine when tested by loading the code directly without retrieving it from the database) this is an example of data stored in the database Code: [Select] The <a href="page_builder.php?id=<?php echo $page->id('mines_DwarvenMines') ?>">Dwarven Mines</a> have a great selection of Ores,... Of course when I leave it like this, hovering over the link in my page will show exactly that and lead to nowhere Code: [Select] localhost/page_builder.php?id=<?php echo $page->id('mines_DwarvenMines') ?> Most of these links appear in tips given at the end of the page and are processed as followed Code: [Select] $questtips = $quest->getQuestTips(); $tips = ""; if ($questtips == "none") { $tips = "/"; } else { foreach($questtips as $tip) { $tips .= "<li>"; $tips .= $tip->getTip(); $tips .= "</li>"; } } and finally put on screen by the presentation layer as followed Code: [Select] <h2>Tips & Extra Info</h2> <div class="tipsList"> <ul> <?php echo $tips ?> </ul> </div> I have tried all sorts to get the code to be executed when retrieved from the database before being send to the browser so that this particular link would say "localhost/page_builder.php?id=57" but I cannot get it to work, though I suspect it is fairly easy. I suspect I would have to store the data in a different format in the database? And how exactly do I use the eval() function in my case? Could someone please adjust my code so that it does work? Thanks Hi everyone,

I have a registration form which includes address details. The form holds a country field which is a listbox, the values being selected from a MySQL table. How do I assign the selected country option to a field list in the insert statement?

<div class="form-group"> Hi,
Webapp noob here.
I have an application that is going to be data-heavy, so I would like to avoid saving things to the database whenever possible. The application in a nutshell is an android application wired up to a php web app(with MySQL) where you can send requests to the phone and the phone will respond with text or image data with POST.
The normal way to do this would be for the phone to post the data to the database, then have the webapp display it. However, what im wondering is if it is possible for a user on the webapp to request information from the phone, and then when the phone replies using a POST to display the information temporarily in maybe a popup window instead of having to save it to the database.
Thanks!
hi, I have created a login page this is my code <?php if (!isset($_SESSION)) { session_start(); } $host="localhost"; // Host name $username="root"; // Mysql username $password=""; // Mysql password $db_name="Marketing"; // Database name $tbl_name="Marketinglogin"; // Table name // Connect to server and select databse. mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB"); $myusername=$_POST['myusername']; $mypassword=$_POST['mypassword']; // To protect MySQL injection (more detail about MySQL injection) $myusername = stripslashes($myusername); $mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword); $myusername = mysql_real_escape_string($myusername); $mypassword = mysql_real_escape_string($mypassword); $sql="SELECT * FROM Marketinglogin WHERE username='$myusername' and password='$mypassword'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); // Mysql_num_row is counting table row $count=mysql_num_rows($result); // If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row if($count==1){ // Register $myusername, $mypassword and redirect to file "login_success.php" session_register("myusername"); session_register("mypassword"); if ($myusername == "sandeep") { header("location:Marketingadmin.php"); } else { header("location:Marketingemployeeform.php"); } } else { echo "wrong password"; } ?> Marketingemployee form has some fields..here when we click submit button all the fields as well as the loginusername has to be stored in the database <?php if (!isset($_SESSION)) { session_start(); } $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root", ""); if (!$con) {die('Could not connect to DB: ' . mysql_error() );} mysql_select_db ("Marketing", $con); $date = $_POST['year'].$_POST['month'].$_POST['dt'] ; $_SESSION['myusername']=$_POST['myusername']; $myusername=$_SESSION['myusername']; $sql="INSERT INTO Marketingemployeetable (Employeeid, Date,Sector,Place,Contactpersonname,Contactaddress,Mobileno)VALUES ( '$myusername','$date','$_POST[project]','$_POST[place]','$_POST[Contactpersonname]','$_POST[Contactaddress]','$_POST[Mobileno]')"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) {die ('Error: ' . mysql_error());} echo "Record added"; mysql_close($con)?> please help me out here i have a dictionary - THIS IS obviously a python dictionary an this has approx 8 000 lines with records [/CODE] $ python printer.py {'url': 'http://www.site1_com' 'cname': 'butcher', 'name': 'cheng', 'email': 'mail1@hotmail.com'} {'url': 'http://www.site2_com' 'cname': 'dilbert', 'name': 'James', 'email': 'mail2@hotmail.com'} [code=auto:0]i have a mysql-db up and runing in my opensuse there i have created a db with the fields url cname name i use the import MySQLdb i studied this documentation he http://stackoverflow...abase-in-python but i think this goes a bit over my head. - well how can i get the data ( in other words the dictionary) into the database? love to hear from you greetings helllo dear php-commmunity new to Ruby - i need some advices - i plan to do some requests in osm-files. (openstreetmap) Question - how can i store the results on a Database - eg mysql or - (if you prefer postgresql) - note: my favorite db - at least at the moment is mysql here the code require 'open-uri' require "net/http" require 'rexml/document' def query_overpass(object_type, left,bottom,right,top, key, value) base_url = "http://www.overpass-api.de/api/xapi?" query_string = "#{object_type}[bbox=#{left},#{bottom},#{right},#{top}][#{key}=#{value}]" url = "#{base_url}#{URI.encode(query_string)}" resp = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse(url)) data = resp.body return data end overpass_result = REXML::Document.new(query_overpass("node", 7.1,51.2,7.2,51.3,"amenity","restaurant|pub|ice_cream|food_court|fast_food|cafe|biergarten|bar|bakery|steak|pasta|pizza|sushi|asia|nightclub")) overpass_result.elements.each('osm/node') {|x| if !x.elements["tag[@k='name']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='name']"].attributes["v"] end print " | " if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:postcode']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:postcode']"].attributes["v"] print ", " end if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:city']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:city']"].attributes["v"] print ", " end if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:street']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:street']"].attributes["v"] print ", " end if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:housenumber']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:housenumber']"].attributes["v"] end print " | " print x.attributes["lat"] print " | " print x.attributes["lon"] print " | " if !x.elements["tag[@k='website']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='website']"].attributes["v"] end print " | " if !x.elements["tag[@k='amenity']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='amenity']"].attributes["v"] print " | " end puts } look forward to hear from you again - i would love to store it on a mysql - database - if possible. If you would prefer postgresql - then i would takte this one.... ;-) look forward to hear from you again - i would love to store it on a mysql - database - if possible. If you would prefer postgresql - then i would takte this one.... ;-) well - i guess that the answer to this will be the same no matter what language we are using. If the db is a sql database we need to design the database schema and create the tables in the database. The first step in accessing a db in our code is to get a connection to it. If ruby is our choice of language, a search for "ruby sql connector" will give us lots of options to read about. Well - we also can do it in PHP. What do you think!? Next, based on the schema we have designed, we need to create queries suitable for storing the data. We will likely need to consider our transactional model. Again, searching "ruby sql transactional model" will give us plenty of food for thought. Finally, we may want or need to close the connection to the database. |
