PHP - Storing And Retrieving Php Code In Mysql Database

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
email



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.... ;-)

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.

Hello all,

I'm currently working on a project and it is the first time I have had to store/retrieve an array with PHP and MySQL. Basically its a website that has a list of discounts/coupons on it. People can register and submit their discounts and such. I am storing an array for who is eligible for the discount, as well as which categories the discount falls under.

I did some googling and there seems to be tons of thoughts on the best way to do this. Some say to use implode/explode, some say to serialize/unserialize, I was just wondering if there is a common, concrete way to do this?

I will need to be able to search the array for its contents. So if children are eligible for the discount, I need to be able to store that in a database, retrieve it later, and search it for only "Children" so I can display the discounts available only to children.

If someone could please advise the best way to do this and post some examples, it would be greatly appreciated. I learn best with examples that are explained properly.

Hi, just a very simple question:

I have an array as follows:
$langList = array('English', 'French', 'German', 'Dutch');
What's the easiest way to store this array in an external file, so that multiple php scripts can access its contents? And what is then the php line I need to retrieve the array from the external file?

Thanks!

I'm trying to use php code that is stored in the sql database, but It doesn't seem to be executing the code.  when I see the page source, its there but the server is not executing the command how do I accomplish this.

Here is a simple code snippet to show what I am trying to do.

$result = mysql_query("select * from data");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo $row['code'];

In the code field in data table this is whats there.
<?php echo "testing."; ?>

the below code as I understand should insert a new record into my database, but it's not.

<?php
$notes = $_POST['notes'];
$cnamedb = $_POST['cname'];
$username = $_SESSION['username'];

mysql_query("INSERT INTO `ccccomma_eve`.`corps` (`id`, `name`, `ticker`, `alliance`, `ceo`, `tax`, `members`, `hq`, `apidate`, `notes`, `notedate`, `updatedby`) VALUES ('', '$cnamedb', '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '$notes', NOW(), '$username'");

echo $cnamedb." Updated";
?>

Any ideas why?

Hi!

I was wondering if there is a way to execute php code which is stored in mysql database using php.

At the minute I am using a echo to try and run php code stored in a mysql database but this just displays the code and does not run the php code.

Thanks for any help!

Code: [Select]
<?php
require "db/config.php";
$fname = $_POST['fname'];
$lname = $_POST['lname'];
$country = $_POST['country'];
$state = $_POST['state'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$zcode = $_POST['zcode'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$ppemail = $_POST['ppemail'];
$pnumber = $_POST['pnumber'];
$cemail = $_POST['cemail'];
$url = $_POST['url'];
$price = "$5.00";
$query = "INSERT INTO custpackage1000(
id,
FirstName,
LastName,
Country,
State,
City,
ZipCode,
Address,
PayPalEmail,
PhoneNumber,
PrimaryEmail,
WebsiteURL) VALUES (
'1',
'$fname',
'$lname',
'$country',
'$state',
'$city',
'$zcode',
'$ppemail',
'$pnumber',
'$cemail',
'$url')";

mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die("<br /><br /><h1>Fatal error. Please contact support if this persists.</h1>");
mysql_select_db($dbname);
mysql_query($query) or die ("could not open db".mysql_error());
sleep(2);
?>
Why won't the code insert into my database upon submission of data? What am I doing wrong?

Code: [Select]
$query = mysql_query("SELECT a.*, b.*
         FROM friendlist a
INNER JOIN friendlist b
ON (a.friendemail=b.friendemail)
INNER JOIN users c
ON (b.friendemail = c.EmailAddress)
WHERE a.email = 'asdf@gmail.com'
AND c.Username LIKE '%carol%'
GROUP BY a.id
ORDER BY count(*) DESC");
Code: [Select]
while ($showfriends = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
     echo $showfriends['Username'];
}
and I would get nothing. It produces the correct number of <div> so i know it's getting through, but it's having trouble displaying the entries?

I've been playing around with this code from http://v3.thewatchmakerproject.com/journal/276/building-a-simple-php-shopping-cart

Objective: I'm trying to make the scripts work but without pulling the data from MySQL Database.
Instead, I created an array and inserted some info there and trying to replicate the same results but getting confused.

For example, on the Index.php file, I made the following changes:


<?php

// Start the session
session_start();

// Include functions
require_once('inc/functions.inc.php');

// Products multidimensional Array
$products = array("book" => array(  'id' => '1',
                                    'title' => 'Learn Your ABC\'s',
                                    'author' => 'John Doe',
                                    'price' => '14.95'),
                    "video" => array('id' => '2',
                                    'title' => 'Visual Guide to learn',
                                    'author' => 'Adam Smith',
                                    'price' => '21.38'),
                    "puzzle" => array('id' => '3',
                                    'title' => 'Can You Solve?',
                                    'author' => 'Sara Brown',
                                    'price' => '9.41'),
                    "exam" => array('id' => '4',
                                    'title' => 'Test Your Knowledge',
                                    'author' => 'Kim Carver',
                                    'price' => '11.15'));

Also, I included the zipped file of the entire script setup.

Again, I'm trying to figure out how to make the cart work with using an array for the product instead of MySQL database.
My goal is to remove ALL SQL statements from the scripts but stuck with the looping portion to display the title, author, and price from the array as shown above.

Hey all,
I've written a php search feature for a mysql database. The search returns a file name like sample.gif, how would I go about displaying the actual image instead? Since the images all have the same location could I have the search return the string into a variable then make the whole thing a link? Thanks.

I have my database set to insert the current time stamp when an entry is made into the table, I am then trying to retrieve via the following code:


$select_view_idea="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name5 WHERE message_number='$message_number'";
$result_view_idea=mysql_query($select_view_idea);
while($row_view_idea=mysql_fetch_assoc($result_view_idea)){
extract($row_view_idea);
}
date_default_timezone_set('US/Eastern');
$date=date('l, F jS Y h:i:s A T', $date);
echo $date;


The above is outputting:
Wednesday, December 31st 1969 07:33:31 PM EST

the database contains:
2011-11-18 00:47:56

I have two tables.

Table Name:Users

Fields:

User_name
user_email
user_level
pwd


2.Reference

Fields:

refid
username
origin
destination

user_name in the users table and the username field in reference fields are common fields.



There is user order form.whenever an user places an order, refid field in reference table will be updated.So the user will be
provided with an refid

Steps:

1.User needs to log in with a valid user id and pwd
2.Once logged in, there will be search, where the user will input the refid which has been provided to him during the time of order placement.
3.Now User is able to view all the details for any refid
3.Up to this we have completed.

Query:

Now we need to retrieve the details based on the user logged in.

For eg: user 'USER A' has been provided with the referenceid '1234' during the time of order placement
        user 'USER B' has been provided with the referenceid '2468' during the time of order placement

When the userA login and enter the refid as '2468' he should not get any details.He should get details only for the reference ids which is assigned to him.
