PHP - Csv, Ignoring Empty Fields

On all my forms, after I send an empty string to one field, it will stop accepting values when I resubmit.  My code passes through the W3C validator

Any ideas??

I apologize in advance, I know pretty much nothing about PHP - don't hate me, please!
But I'm working on a form mailer, and it functions, but what I don't like is it leaves all the text fields, blank or not, in my email, which makes it difficult for my client to read, so theres a long list of
txt field1:
another text field:
blah blah:

all the way down the email - and I want it gone! haha.
I've researched how to do this, but basically, I have no idea how to implement it into my code and don't have time right now to up and learn PHP.
My code is as follows:

Code: [Select]
<?php
//--------------------------Set these paramaters--------------------------

// Subject of email sent to you.
$subject = 'PCI Tour/Excursion Request'; 

// Your email address. This is where the form information will be sent. 
$emailadd = 'MY EMAIL HERE'; 

// Where to redirect after form is processed. 
$url = 'FORWARDING URL'; 

// Makes all fields required. If set to '1' no field can not be empty. If set to '0' any or all fields can be empty.
$req = '0'; 

// --------------------------Do not edit below this line--------------------------
$text = "Results from form:\n\n"; 
$space = ' ';
$line = '
';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value)
{
if ($req == '1')
{
if ($value == '')
{echo "$key is empty";die;}
}
$j = strlen($key);
if ($j >= 20)
{echo "Name of form element $key cannot be longer than 20 characters";die;}
$j = 20 - $j;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $j; $i++)
{$space .= ' ';}
$value = str_replace('\n', "$line", $value);
$conc = "{$key}:$space{$value}$line";
$text .= $conc;
$space = ' ';
}
mail($emailadd, $subject, $text, 'From: '.$emailadd.'');
echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL='.$url.'">';
?>

IT was a very simple copy-paste form, but I have no idea what on earth I'm doing.
If anyone has any ideas I would GREATLY appriciate the help!
Thanks!

Man, I'm having a rough week with questions--if you're following at home.  Basically matching a Coach's first and last name to another table, which if matched will yield information about that coach's team. 

Code: [Select]
// or get user by username
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$current_first = $current_user->user_firstname;
$current_last = $current_user->user_lastname;
$current_id = $current_user->ID;


echo '<div class="contact_form">';

    echo  $current_first . ' ' . $current_last .' :: ';


$query = "SELECT * FROM schools WHERE coachFirst='".$current_first."' AND coachLast='".$current_last."'";
$result = mysql_query ($query);

if(!$result) {
echo 'There is not a match for your name.';
}
else
{
while($school= mysql_fetch_array($result)) {


echo $school['school'] . ' ' .  $school['id'];

include(ABSPATH ."wp-content/plugins/my-team/form.php");

}




echo '</div>';


echo '<div class="roster">';

include(ABSPATH ."wp-content/plugins/my-team/roster.php");

echo '</div>';
}

I have any array $DF containing numeric variables, I want the minimum value of the array stored in $val but ignoring any zeros i.e. the lowest number that is not 0.  Is this possible?

Hi all,

I have another uestion. I am currently working with an XML document that has some comments in it that need to stay however it is messing up my parser that I am working on. How can I get around this issue and make the php parser ignore the comments? here is a snippet of the code I am working on.

php
Code: [Select]
//open XML file containing data for current slide

$currentslidefilepath = "slides/xml/";
$currentslidefilepath .= $slides[$currentslide];
$currentSlideXml = simplexml_load_file($currentslidefilepath); 

XML

<!-- there are some comments here -->

<Basic>
         <another>some data</another>

Hi,

I have a database table which is full of books e.g book_title, book_author, book_date etc.  Im trying to work out a way to list all the authors without duplicating them, if that makes sense.

If I do a simple query and then display the book_author in a loop it will show multiple entries for each author.

I just want it to display each author once.

Hope that makes sense lol sorry Im a newbie.

Anyone know how I can do it ?

Thanks in advance,

Scott.

I have a php script. I defined a variable outside of a function, but i cannot echo the variable inside the function.

When I execute this:

<?PHP
$testvar = "test worked!";

testfunction();

function testfunction(){
    echo $testvar;
}
?>

Nothing happens. what am i doing wrong.
I did this on my local host. Apache running on Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit Edition.

Thanks in advance.

What I am looking for is that if any field in a database is empty, the form comes back and puts in the word "empty" into the web page, but not the database.


I got this right now, it shows the first part fine, but the second part it doesn't show the "Empty" comment... I don't understand why... as far as I can tell the code is fine...

Code: [Select]
<?php
            //Nonconformity, Disposition, Comments and Comments & Additional Details
            echo '<div id="box3">';
                if (!empty($row['Nonconformity']) || !empty($row['Disposition']) || !empty($row['Comments']) || !empty($row['CommentsAdditional_Details'])) {
                    echo '<div id="non"><span class="b">Nonconformity:&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />' . $row['Nonconformity'] . '</div>';
                    echo '<div id="dis"><span class="b">Disposition:&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />' . $row['Disposition'] . '</div>';
                    echo '<div id="comm"><span class="b">Comments:&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />' . $row['Comments'] . '</div>';
                    echo '<div id="comma"><span class="b">Comments and/or Additional Details:&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />' . $row['CommentsAdditional_Details'] . '</div>';}
                        else
                            if (empty($row['Nonconformity']) || empty($row['Disposition']) || empty($row['Comments']) || empty($row['CommentsAdditional_Details'])) {
                                echo '<div id="non"><span class="b">Nonconformity:&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />Empty</div>';
                                echo '<div id="dis"><span class="b">Disposition:&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /></span>Empty</div>';
                                echo '<div id="comm"><span class="b">Comments:&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /></span>Empty</div>';
                                echo '<div id="comma"><span class="b">Comments and/or Additional Details:&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><br />Empty</div>';}
            echo '</div>';
?>

I have a dynamic menu (jglidemenu) installed on my site.  It works fine on my HTML pages but on my PHP pages the font formatting from the menu's style sheet isn't working and I haven't been able to figure out why.

Here's a page where the menu is working correctly:

http://www.greenbayeasthighschool.com

and here's a page where the formatting fails:

http://www.greenbayeasthighschool.com/staff_by_lastname.php

This is my first attempt at creating a page with PHP.  Is it not possible to use CSS formatting on a page that includes PHP content?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Basically I have the following code (posted below)
   foreach($char_xml->characterInfo->characterTab->items->item as $item)
   {
        //get the item id
       $item_id = $item->attributes()->id;
        //get the xml doc for that item from wow armory
        $url = "http://www.wowarmory.com/item-info.xml?i=" . $item_id;
        $data = fetchXML($url);
        //create a SimpleXML object to parse the xml
        $item_xml = new SimpleXmlElement($data);
        //print the item's name
        echo "<li type=square>" . $item_xml->itemInfo->item->attributes()->name . " ";
echo "<b>(" . $item_xml->itemInfo->item->attributes()->level . ")</b></br>";

//calculate gear score total
$calc=$calc+$item_xml->itemInfo->item->attributes()->level;
    }
echo '</ul>';
//print the total item level
echo '<b>Total Additive Item Score (Equipped):</b>' . $calc;
echo '<br>';
//calculate the average item level(equipped)  
$ilvl=$calc/16;
echo '<b>Average Item Score (Equipped):</b>' . round($ilvl) . "<br><br>";

It is working relatively well for what I am trying to accomplish. It pulls xml data from wowarmory and uses it to calculate a player's "average item level". The problem I am running in to is if a player is equipped with certain items (that should not be calculated), the average is incorrect.

I know atleast the shirt, tabard and off-hand need to be ignored IF equipped. I am trying to find something relative to all 3 items in the xml data and thus tell the script to disregard them. Here is a printed example of the array I am working with (warning its LONG). This is an example of a player that has these 3 extra items. Shirt (Block 4), off-hand(shield) (Block 17), and Tabard (Block19) :

I guess the shirt and tabard can be identified by the "[Quality]=>1" which no other items should typically have. The big issue comes with the third odd ball (off hand). This off-hand could be a shield or any weapon with few exceptions depending on the player class. As I continue to try and figure this out, one solution could be to first take the previous two "[Quality]=>1" items out of the equation IF they exist, then ONLY IF there are 17 items remaining subtract the value of block/iteration 17 before calulating as usual. If 16 items, then just run $calc is it currently is.

How would I accomplish this?

I do not mind displaying the item's name, in fact I would prefer to keep the item list as it currently I just need to not include the said items in the item level average. 
I know this is probably relatively straight forward to accomplish and that I am a noob, but would be grateful of your assistance.

Thanks.

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’m trying to work out how I can use php gd to take an image, in this case it’s a rectangle that has text in the middle and the rest is transparent, so it’s a png with just text in the centre.

 

I have another image which is a texture. Its also a rectangle of the same size. I have managed to merge the two together so the texture on top of the text image but it covers the entire image rather than just the text in the middle.

 

what I need it to do it apply the texture to the text in the image and ignore the surrounding transparent pixels.

 

 

Hi everyone!  I'm new to PHP and needed from you.  I have the following code that I can't figure out why it doesn't work on the last elseif.   If I comment out the first elseif (line 19-39), it does go through the last elseif. 

Can someone here help?  Thank you!!!

I don't get the logic behind the construct.  I can't ever see myself using this because it doesn't make sense when I code it. 

I understand isset($var) and why I should use it sometimes to avoid undefined messages.

But with empty() it makes more sense to always test the variable directly because if the value is NULL, 0, '', or false then it evaluates as TRUE.  Is there any situation where empty should be used always?

I have search page in the form of search.php?q=query, as the php script calls for other files and a long process. When visiting search.php directly, the value of q is indeed null, and it makes a long loop and use lots of cpu.

How to kill the script or redirect to the main page when visiting search.php?
