PHP - Displaying Certain Parts Of A Text File In Text Boxes
I currently am working on a project where I code a "simple" telephone directory.
There are three main tasks that it needs to do: 1. Directory.php(index page) has a "First Name" and "Last Name" field and a search button. When a name is searched from the directory.txt file, it displays First Name, Last Name, Address, City, State, Zip and phone in findinfo.php in designated text boxes...first name, last name, etc. 2. From the findinfo.php, like previously stated, the users information is listed in the appropriate text boxes. From there, there is an update button that will overwrite the user's information to directory.txt if that button is selected. It will then say the write was sucessful. 3. (completed this step) From the index page, there is a link that will take you to addnew.php where you enter First Name, Last Name, Address, City, State, Zip and phone in a web form and write it to directory.txt. This is the php code for the third step: <?php $newentryfile = fopen("directory.txt", "a+"); $firstname = $_POST['fname']; $lastname = $_POST['lname']; $address = $_POST['address']; $city = $_POST['city']; $state = $_POST['state']; $zip = $_POST['zip']; $phone = $_POST['phone']; $newentry = "$firstname $lastname\n\r $address\n\r $city, $state $zip\n\r $phone\n\r"; if (flock($newentryfile, LOCK_EX)) { if (fwrite($newentryfile, $newentry) > 0) echo "<p>" . stripslashes($firstname) . " " . stripslashes($lastname) . " has been added to the directory.</p>"; else echo "<p>Registration error!</p>"; flock($newentryfile, LOCK_UN); } else echo "<p>Cannot write to the file. Please try again later</p>"; fclose($newentryfile); if(empty($firstname) || empty($lastname) || empty($address) || empty($city) || empty ($state) || empty($zip) || empty($phone)) { echo "<p>Please go back and fill out all fields.</p>"; } ?> So to sum it all up, what would be my best approach? I am totally stumped and not sure which function to use. Should I work my way from step 1 to step 2? I see it as when I do the search for the name from directory.php, it takes me to findinfo.php, listing the users information in the text boxes. From there, if I needed to, having the user's information already listed I could hit the update button to overwrite the new information to directory.txt. Doing the update when then tell me that the write was successful. I have literally been scouring the internet for hours. What would be the best function to do this? I hope I was clear enough. Please help me out and thank you for your time. Similar TutorialsHi, Everyone! I have an issue and I'm not even sure if it can be done with PHP, but even this info would help me (to stop looking for an answer). I need to populate a (MySQL) database with stuff which is now written in a (HTML formatted) file. Here are my options: 1. Copy/paste each single field via PHPMyAdmin . 2. Write a little script to extract the necessary parts of text from these files to create a CSV-like content which I would then easily INSERT into the db. Example The files look like this: Code: [Select] <!-- SEPARATOR (same throughout the file(s) --> <tr><td> <div style="something"><img src="img/what_i_need_to_extract_1.png"></div> </td><td> <div style="something else"><b>What I need to extract 2</b></div> <div style="something else">What I need to extract 3</div> </td></tr> <!-- SEPARATOR (same throughout the file(s) --> etc ... and it goes like... 100 times in each file in the same standard pattern with the "What I need to extract" parts being completely different each time. Since it's possible to tell when each part required for extraction begins and ends, I would expect the script to look for these key-points (according to the example, it would be: img/ to "></d then "><b> to </b>< and else"> to </div>) and return a result like this (acc. to the example): ('what_i_need_to_extract_1.png', 'What I need to extract 2', 'What I need to extract 3'), (and so on...). Is it possible? Is there a function/option/way to look for a start/end-point like this and fetch the part between these two set points? If so - how? Any help would be appreciated, I'm not expecting a full code, obviously, just a point to the right direction or where to look at would be nice. Thanks in advance. So, I'm trying to get this read my text document "news.txt" and display the contents. My code: Code: [Select] div.newscontent{ padding:0px; margin-top:60px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:400px; margin-right:0px; position:absolute; width:457px; height:330px; text-align:center; color:#FFFFFF; } Code: [Select] <div class='newscontent'> <?PHP $filename = "news.txt"; $arr = file($filename); foreach($arr as $line){ print $line . "<br/>"; } ?> </div> This is the output I get: Code: [Select] "; } ?> Whats wrong? I am trying to eliminate this issue but I have had no luck here is my current code: Code: [Select] $from = 'help@my.com'; $body = "<html>\n"; $body .= "<body style=\"font-family:Verdana, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;\">\n"; $body .= $message; $body .= "</body>\n"; $body .= "</html>\n"; $boundary = uniqid('np'); $semi_rand = md5(time()); $mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x"; $headers = "From: $from"; $headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n" ."Content-Type: multipart/alternative;\n" ." boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\""; $message = "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" . "--{$mime_boundary}\n" . "Content-Type: text/html; \n" . "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" . $body . "\n\n" . "--{$mime_boundary}--\n"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, '-f'.$from); I have tried adding the plain text part but nothing has worked, could someone else look at this and show me what I need to add so that it has the text/plain MIME part as well? Ok i have been working on this for a day+ now. here is my delema simple .ini text file. when a user makes a change (via html form) it makes the correct adjustments. problem is the newline issue 1. if i put a "\n" at the end (when using fputs) works great, except everytime they edit the file it keeps adding a new line (i.e. 10 edits there are now 10 blank lines!!!!) 2. if i leave off the "\n" it appends the next "fgets" to that lilne making a mess Code: [Select] ##-- Loop thruoght the ORIGINAL file while( ! feof($old)) { ##-- Get a line of text $aline = fgets($old); ##-- We only need to check for "=" if(strpos($aline,"=") > 0 ) { ##-- Write NEW data to tmp file fputs($tmp,$info[$i]." = ".$rslt[$i]."\n"); $i++; } ##-- No Match else { fputs($tmp,$aline."\n"); }//Checking for match }//while eof(old) what in the world is making this such a big deal. i dont remember having this issue in the past I tried opening with w+, and just w on the temp file a typical text line would be some fieldname = some value the scipt cycles through the file ignoring comments that are "#" ps the tmp file will overwrite the origianl once complete all i really want to know is WHY i cant get the newline to work, and what is the suggested fix EDIT: i just tried PHP_EOL and it still appends another newline Hi, I am writing several scripts and some are used to amend extra information to a text file. However, I added a hyperlink to the text file so that the user can go back to a page where they can add extra information. However, since I have done this every time I amend more text to the text file, the extra text appears below the hyperlink rather than above it, and I was wondering if there was a way around this. My amend code is as follows: Code: [Select] <html> <head> <title>Amend File</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" a href="rcm/stylesheet.css"> </head> <?php if($_POST['append'] !=null) { $filename="C:/xampp/htdocs/rcm/denman2.txt"; $file=fopen($filename, "a"); $msg="<p>Updated Information: " .$_POST['append'].

Is there a way to easily (and dynamically) display the same number of Text-Boxes as the # of Attendees entered? For example, let's say the Customer (payor) wants to buy Tickets for herself and 5 friends to a Banjo Festival. Right now, I just have a drop-down box to capture the head-count, but it would be nice to have 5 Text-Boxes (or something appear) so that the Customer can easily type in the Names of the 5 Attendees *without* having to suffer numerous other clicks and/or screens. Follow me? Is there a way to do that? Thanks, Debbie Hello, I have a script that displays that uses a while loop in php to display all of the records. For each record, I added an input text box with a button to update one of the fields in the record set. When I run the script only the first listing will update and the subsequent listings on the page will not update. Should I go about this set up differently?

Eg.: there are 5 checkboxes (XS, S, M, L, XL) and 5 textboxes (with values 3,4,5,6,8) that correspond to the checkboxes. I give all the checkboxes the name 'size[]' and the textboxes the name 'price[]'. The aim is to have my script set a boolean to true and update the corresponding price if the checkbox is selected. Unfortunately it does not work this way: checkboxes are only put in the array when they are selected, meaning that if I select only checkbox S and L, the array length is 2 only, but array length price is always 5, so size[1] does not correspond to price[1] necessarily. There probably is a better way to achieve what I need. Could anyone point me in the right direction? edit: BTW the number of items is dynamic: sometimes there will also be XXL or some items will be missing and I also need to set the price for items where the checkbox is not checked. hey guys so im trying to display data into text boxes that are fetched from database according to checkbox with value id. processing is located before <!DOCTYPE html>: if(isset($_POST['edit_event']) && isset($_POST['check'])) { require "connection.php"; foreach ($_POST['check'] as $edit_id) { $edit_id = intval($GET['event_id']); //i tried (int)$edit_id; $sqls = "SELECT event_name,start_date,start_time,end_date,end_time,event_venue FROM event WHERE event_id IN $edit_id "; $sqlsr = mysqli_query($con, $sqls); $z = mysqli_fetch_array($sqlsr); { }button and form opens: <form method="post" action="event.php"> <input type="submit" name="edit_event" value="Edit Event">this is the html where the data will be echoed: <div id="doverlay" class="doverlay"></div> <div id="ddialog" class="ddialog"> <table class="cevent"> <thead><tr><th>Update Event</th></tr></thead> <tbody> <tr> <td> <input type="text" name="en_" value="<?php echo $z['event_name']; ?>"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <input type="text" name="dates_" value="<?php echo $z['start_date']; ?>"> <input type="text" name="times_" value="<?php echo $z['start_time']; ?>"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="text" name="datee_" value="<?php echo $z['end_date']; ?>"> <input type="text" name="time_" value="<?php echo $z['end_time']; ?>"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="text" name="ev_" value="<?php echo $z['event_venue']; ?>"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="submit" name="update" value="Update Event" id="update"> <input type="submit" id="cancelupdate" name="cancel" value="Cancel" > </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div>this is the part which is populated by data from database where isset($_POST['check']) gets the 'check' from: echo "<tr> <td><input type='checkbox' name='check[]' value='$id'>$name </td> </tr>";</form> thanks in advance! Edited by noobdood, 19 May 2014 - 10:42 PM. Hello all, I have three text fields ( hosteladmissionnumber,branch & Semester) and three text boxes in a form. When i provide the hostel admission number , the corresponding branch semester must be acquired from the registrationtable in DB and fill it in text boxes. How can i do it? any help would be appreciated. Thanks. I have pasted the code below. [syntax=php] <?php session_start(); $hostad=$_POST['hosteladmissionno']; $sem=$_POST['student_name']; $sem=$_POST['semester']; $con=mysql_connect('localhost','root',''); if(!$con) { die('Unable to connect'.mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db('hostel',$con); //i have to insert the hosteladmission in payment too..but no need to insert semester and branch $r1="INSERT INTO payment(hosteladmissionno) values ('$hostad')"; mysql_close($con); ?> /HTML PART <form action='payment.php' method='POST' name='form1'> <center> <table> <tr><td><b>Admission No:</b></td><td><input type='text' name='hosteladmissionno'></td></tr> <tr><td><b>Student Name:</b></td><td><input type='text' name='student_name'></td></tr> <tr><td><b>Semester:</b></td><td><input type='text' name='semester'></td></tr> [/syntax] Hi All,
this is my first post after joining the forum.
First of all, I am not a programmer. My field is of Building design and Architecture. I work for an Architectural company.
I have a great interest in programming and I started learning php, mysql, html css and jscript, to develop a timesheet application for the company. The web application was created and successully implemented in April this year...! However, all these are purely 'self learning', and it has its own downsides as well. This was just a small intro..., let me come to what i request help on. This is for further development of the application.
I have a page to edit the 'utilization' rate of each employee, based on their designations. So the page has all the designations listed as <labels>, next to which a textbox, for the user to fill in the utilization rate. Scenario is that the user will not save each designation's utilization rate immediately after filling it. User will keep going till he fills the last item and then hit the submit button to save. Now, in php I can get all the values from the Request Array. But, how will I know which designations these values belong to? So, what i have as a solution is to name the textboxes with the designation_ids as suffix. May be like;
utilTextbox_1, utilTextbox_2, utilTextbox_3 etc...
Then when the form is submitted;
Check each Request Array element to see if its name starts with 'utilTextbox'
If Yes, split it using '_' to get the designation_id
Update the db table with the value of the text box
Check the next Array Element.....and so on...
is this the correct method or is there a better way of doing this?
Hi. Need some help on one simple task yet so hard. I have puzzled on this for days and no luck. I have a great script i got from somewhere. Code: [Select] function get_time_difference( $start, $end ) { $uts['start'] = strtotime( $start ); $uts['end'] = strtotime( $end ); if( $uts['start']!==-1 && $uts['end']!==-1 ) { if( $uts['end'] >= $uts['start'] ) { $diff = $uts['end'] - $uts['start']; if( $days=intval((floor($diff/86400))) ) $diff = $diff % 86400; if( $hours=intval((floor($diff/3600))) ) $diff = $diff % 3600; if( $minutes=intval((floor($diff/60))) ) $diff = $diff % 60; $diff = intval( $diff ); return( array('days'=>$days, 'hours'=>$hours, 'minutes'=>$minutes, 'seconds'=>$diff) ); } else { trigger_error( "Ending date/time is earlier than the start date/time", E_USER_WARNING ); } } else { trigger_error( "Invalid date/time data detected", E_USER_WARNING ); } return( false ); } Now the other part is that i have 3 textboxes and i woul like to add the first one like 15:00:00 the second one 18:30:00 and the third would display the difference in lets say seconds. At least the function displays the results in seconds. But the problem is how to get the textbox to work whitout posting the info but to use onchange Any ideas?

I'll try to show everything that I have, and then the error I am getting when the visitor hits "submit." I don't know PHP all that well, and trying to learn my way through it. I used a couple of tutorials to add the features I needed and did my own styling on the live site. Here is the PHP that is currently in the header of my markup: <?php //If the form is submitted if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { //Check to make sure that the First name field is not empty if(trim($_POST['firstname']) == '') { $hasError = true; } else { $firstname = trim($_POST['firstname']); } //Check to make sure that the Last name field is not empty if(trim($_POST['lastname']) == '') { $hasError = true; } else { $lastname = trim($_POST['lastname']); } //Check to make sure that the Street Address 01 field is not empty if(trim($_POST['street01']) == '') { $hasError = true; } else { $street01 = trim($_POST['street01']); } //If Street02 is filled out, give it a value $street02 = $_POST['street02']; //Check to make sure that the City field is not empty if(trim($_POST['city']) == '') { $hasError = true; } else { $city = trim($_POST['city']); } //Check to make sure that the State field is not empty if(trim($_POST['state']) == '') { $hasError = true; } else { $state = trim($_POST['state']); } //Check to make sure that the Zip field is not empty if(trim($_POST['zip']) == '') { $hasError = true; } else { $zip = trim($_POST['zip']); } //If Email is filled out, give it a value $email = $_POST['email']; //If Telephone is filled out, give it a value $telephone = $_POST['telephone']; //Default Subject Value $subject = "VMC Inquiry"; //Check checkboxes foreach($_POST['check'] as $value) { $check_msg = "Checked: $value\n"; } //If Message is filled out, give it a value $comment = $_POST['comment']; //If there is no error, send the email if(!isset($hasError)) { $emailTo = 'xxxx.xxxx@gmail.com'; //Put your own email address here $body = "Name: $firstname $lastname \n\nStreet Address: $street01 \n\nStreet Address*: $street02 \n\nCity: $city \n\nState: $state \n\nZip: $zip \n\nEmail*: $email \n\nTelephone*: $telephone \n\nCheck Box: $check_msg \n\nMessage:\n $comment"; $headers = 'From: XXXXX <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email; mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, $headers); $emailSent = true; } } ?> So basically I am using classes to say whether or not something is required, which ties into the jQuery validation. If it isn't required, whatever the visitor types into the box is put into something like "$telephone" which is then printed in the e-mail.
