PHP - Parse Xml Directly To Page Vs. Into An Array
Trying to figure out what's best practice when it comes to parsing XML and echoing it into a pretty little table.
should I save all the data in a array and then loop through the array? Or should I just echo the data directly from the XML file? Any thoughts would be welcomed. Similar TutorialsHello. I have a simple array with a key/value pair like this...
foreach($photoFiles as $photoKey => $photoValue){
}
The $photoValue would be the file-name (e.g. "IMG_2340.JPG") and is used in my photo-gallery. Now I am building a photo-details page and what I would like to do is have that larger image be "IMG_2340_large.JPG" Is it possible to split up the array value, insert "_large" and then re-assemble the $photoValue so I can use it here...
<a href='client1/galleries/$galleryID/{$photoValue}'><image here</a>
Thanks.
Hey all I am just now getting around to the newest version of the PHP sdk for Facebook. It seems to use a new array of returned data that I can not seem to be able to parse out what I need and not all other gibberish it has contained inside the array.
The array returned looks like this:
Array (
[data] => Array (
[0] => stdClass Object (
[id] => 439676913452345546787863523525
[name] => John Doe
[picture] => stdClass Object (
[data] => stdClass Object (
[is_e] =>
[url] => https://blah.com....
)
)
)
[1] => stdClass Object (
[id] => 56594790468026754634524674
[name] => Bob Barker
[picture] => stdClass Object (
[data] => stdClass Object (
[is_e] =>
[url] => https://blah.com....
)
)
)
[2]...etc etc...
[paging] => stdClass Object (
[cursors] => stdClass Object (
[before] => QWFMmhllXN5JH....Rk52QWc=
[after] => WGHtdnNIwaDlRz....05RNB0E=
)
)
)
)
In the older version of the Facebook SDK I just needed to do something along these lines (below code example is getting the id within the returned array and checking also to make sure it has a value or not):
foreach($theReturnedArray['data'] as $rData) {
$id = (isset($rData['id']) ? $rData['id'] : null);
$name = (isset($rData['name']) ? $rData['name'] : null);
echo $name . ' ' . $id . '<br />';
}
in order to get the value that I needed. I have also tried:
foreach($graphObject['data'] as $rData) {
echo $rData->id + '<br/>';
echo '======================================<br/>';
}
and that just gives me 0's for each one it finds..
Now the return has an added stdClass object within the array itself and I am unsure on how to go about getting id, name & picture url from it.
Any help would be awesome!
Hello, Im trying to figure out how to create multidimensional array from xml file that looks like this:
<root>
<item>
<name>name A</name>
<category>category 1</name>
<desc>desc A</desc>
</item>
<item>
<name>name B</name>
<category>category 1</name>
<desc>desc B</desc>
</item>
<item>
<name>name C</name>
<category>category 2</name>
<desc>desc C</desc>
</item>
</root>
In the end i would like to get output that have items grouped under their categories, something like this: Category 1 name A desc A name B desc B Category 2 name C desc C
I have a clue on how to pull the data out of array but I cant figure out how to actually make it :) Any help or directions would be great, thanks!
I have an array ($other_images) that contains image file names separated by semi colons. I can successfully echo the individual values using echo $other_images[0], $other_images[1], $other_images[2]... When I put it in a for loop, though, I run into the followng error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in... Here is my code: <?php $other_images = explode(";", $data['ItemAltImage']); for($i=0; $i<count($other_images); $i++) { echo "<p><img src='http:\\www.oppictures.com\SINGLEIMAGES\100\" . $other_images[$i] . "' /></p>"; } ?> This is the result of print_r($other_images): Array ( => UNV21200_3_2.JPG [1] => UNV21200_2_2.JPG [2] => UNV21200_4_1.JPG [3] => UNV21200_8_1.JPG [4] => UNV21200_5_1.JPG [5] => UNV21200_6_1.JPG [6] => UNV21200_7_1.JPG [7] => UNV21200_9_1.JPG ) Do you see where I'm making a mistake?

how would i go to fill it automatically in a option value like
<option value='74'>Zentyal 3.2</option>Thank you in advance I have a Windows-style ini file that contains entries as such:
[Timers] Timer(1)=50 Timer(2)=30 Timer(3)=20 The entries represent an array of 3 different timers Apparently parse_ini_file can't deal with the () format. Is there any way to use this format ini file without having to change how arrays are designated? Hi Everyone, I have been successful to parse out some data out of an html page that I am downloading using CURL. I used arrays and preg_match to get the data I need. However, some part of the data has a great deal of SPACE charecters and it seems that my arrays method doesn't work. Can someone please point out how I can parse the following to get only the information out and not tags (****quoted excerpt including all the space characters like it was downloaded): Code: [Select] <span class="basic_serial">(777) 777-7777</span> <br /> 1111 ABCD, EFGH, IJKL <br /> Thanks, Hi, I have some jQuery tabs. I would like to be able to link to them directly, but I can't work out how to do this. I have the following code: <div class="container-outer">How could I link directly to each of the tabs? Thanks! I'm trying to figure out a way to post data directly to a URL. For example: <?php if (isset($_POST["pass"]) && ($_POST["pass"]=="$password")) { echo "You did it"; ?> <?php } else { echo "<form method=\"post\"><p align=\"left\">"; echo "<input name=\"pass\" type=\"text\" size=\"25\" maxlength=\"40\"><input value=\"Enter Pass\" type=\"submit\"></form>"; exit; } ?> Let's assume $password is 'password'. Why can't I simply pass the information through the URL to access the page with something like this: Code: [Select] http://mypage.com/the-same-page.php?pass=password Hi, im using colorbox(basically like lightbox) for some links on my site. When a user clicks the link it opens this lightbox. But if they type the link into the address bar manually it takes them to the actual page(which isnt formatted properly). Is there a way to open up the lightbox when they enter the address manually? or a work around? I hope someone can help me out with this. What I would like to do is import a text file dircetly to a text area. I can't seem to find any examples on this (Yes I did search Google). I know how to upload but I'm not interested in storing files on the server - but rather just importing them directly to a textarea. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I can upload: <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" /> Upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Upload File" /> </form> I can read: $myFile = "testFile.txt"; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') But I'm not interested in either of these as they are unnecessary steps (or are they?). Is there not a way to simply browse/import a text file directly to a textarea (or anywhere for that matter) without having to actually save the file to the server? Something like this: <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" /> Upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Upload File" /> </form> //uploader.php if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { $content = $_POST['"grab the contents of the file"']; echo "<textarea>"; echo $content; echo "</textarea>"; } Hello, I have found the following code which creates a sitemap from the home directory of files. Please could you point me in the right direction for changing this so that it looks up from my sql database and for each name within the database creates an entry in the sitemap (e.g. www.mysite.com/[NAME]).

Hi there I've recently been working on a Laravel project. It's a project I've been drafted in to work on and I've not used Laravel before. My question is one of what is considered good practice. In this project the controllers pass whole models back to the view. For instance, its the norm on the project to pass back a whole booking model just to get at a couple of attributes like booking->id and booking->name. As these attributes represent database columns it feels a bit wrong to pass these around because you're effectively coupling the view to the structure of the database. I know behind the scenes Laravel is using a magic method to access the properties so you could argue they are wrapped in a method and therefore don't expose the direct database structure to views. So the question is, would you pass database models directly to views in this way? Or is it 'better' to map those models to an intermediary model that is dedicated to the view (a sort of dto)? Thanks,
Drongo I'm getting the err msg Error . "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '$sqry' at line 1 " while executing query from php5.3.5 but its working directly in mysql5.5.8 Help? Hi,
I need to create a landing page with a form. That form needs to be recorded somewhere instead of sent to email. I know I can write it to a SQL database, and then to an excel file. But I only need a temporary solution so I figured I'd just go straight to CSV.
Is this bad practice? What potential problems might I encounter other than security issues?
I'm working with a lightbox plugin to show images when thumbnails are clicked on. The plugin works by wrapping the thumbnail in an anchor tag that has the href as the direct path to the full-size image. This acts as a non-js fallback, so that if JS isn't present for whatever reason, the user still sees the image. When JS is enabled, the image is shown in the lighbox, resized to fit in the lightbox, which is a variable size depending on the browser.
I need to keep a record of the number of times that the image has been clicked on, as thumbnails will be ordered by the number of views. The problem of course is that I'm directly linking to the image, so I can't put a script on this page.
I've tried two things instead, neither of which worked:
1) Instead setting the target as the path to the image, I set it to a PHP script, then outputted the image in an <img/> tag. The problem was that the image is then not resized according to the size of the lighbox. So this is no good.
2) I set the target of the lightbox as a PHP script which recorded the viewing of the image, and redirected to the image page. This didn't work either, as the lightbox showed the data for the image (text) instead of the image itself.
So, I've hit a bit of a barrier. I'm wondering if I can set something up in my PHP settings that will automatically call a script when hitting images, or maybe something in an .htaccess file that will do the same, but I'm not aware of if this can be done, nor how to do it, and I haven't found anything yet with my googling. Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks.

Hello I have one problem with fwrite() I have one script to get width and height from javascript and echo it with PHP. echo "Screen width is: ". $_GET['width'] ."<br />\n"; echo "Screen height is: ". $_GET['height'] ."<br />\n"; It works but i want to store the result in a file fwrite($info,"Height: $_GET['height'] <br />"); But then I get error Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING //////////////////////// it would be even better if I don't have to print the values but directly store them in $iinfo sorry if something similar was soved but those examples were different or i was unable to transform it to solve my problem |
