PHP - Html Form Results To Excel Spreadsheet
This sounds like overkill, but is there any way I can take the results of an html form, and plug them into their respective cells on a excel spreadsheet?
Thanks in advance! -Brad Similar Tutorialsdoes anyone know who to resolve this issue of importing a CSV file from excel into sql? I get this error when I do. LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/tmp/phpq2aAbU' INTO TABLE `Events` FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '\\"' ESCAPED BY '\\\\' LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n' I have an excel file that has several columns with different data and I need to create a form that can upload this excel file and insert the data from the columns into its conrresponding data columns in a mysql database. I know how to create the form but I have no idea how to get the file and tell it to input each cell of data into its corresponding field in the mysql database. Does anyone know how to do this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Hi there guys, what would be the best way to print information from PHP contact form to google spreadsheet, i've tried to follow this tutorial: http://www.farinspace.com/saving-form-data-to-google-spreadsheets/ And i fail in every way. I have few fields only, let's say Full name, Email, Address, Checkbox and Select (dropdown) option, i would like to know how can i store inputs to the google spreadsheet, not single one, but all of them... Help is much appreciated! Hi, When the user creates a contact, then edits the contact that final edited information is shown in a file called "my data.txt". After this, when I select my php file "save_contact_details.php" the details stored in the text file "my data.txt" are not retrieved. How can I retrieve them? At the moment the issue I'm having is that I see no data when I click on "save_contact_details.php" after I filled in all the contact persons information. Feel free to watch this video I recorded to help you understand what I am talking about. https://streamable.com/rbw6p save_contact_details.php code

In the code below, I am trying to produce a google-like page where the user can type keywords and pages of search results are displayed. The main difficulty I am encountering is that when the browser changes pages, it forgets everything about current data. Perhaps I should include the display of pages inside the HTML form ? How can I fix this code ? Here is the contents of my searchpage.php file :
<?php
$keywords='';
$display_search_results='';
if(isset($_POST['search_submitted'])) {
$keywords=$_POST['keywords'];
$search_results=array();
$totalNbrOfItems=20;
for($k=1;$k<=$totalNbrOfItems;$k++) {
$search_results[$k]='Your keywords '$keyowrds.' have been found in item number '.$k;
}
$nbrOfItemsParPage = 5;
$nbrOfPages = ceil($totalNbrOfItems / $nbrOfItemsParPage);
// Compute current page
$current_page = (isset($_GET['page']))?intval($_GET['page']):1;
$display_pages=($nbrOfPages<2)?'<p>Page : ':'<p>Pages : ';
for ($i = 1 ; $i <= $nbrOfPages ; $i++)
{
if ($i == $current_page) //No link to the current page
{
$display_pages=$display_pages.$i.' ';
}
else
{
$display_pages=$display_pages.'<a href="searchpage.php?'.
'page='.$i.'">'.
$i . '</a> ';
}
}
$display_pages=$display_pages.'</p>';
$display_items='';
$start=$nbrOfItemsPerPage*($current_page-1);
for($k=1;$k<=$nbrOfItemsParPage;$k++) {
$display_items=$display_items.($search_results[$start+$k]).'<br>';
}
$display_search_results=$display_pages.$display_items;

I've already made this work, but I'm wondering if anybody has any different/better ideas. I have an excel spreadsheet that we want to turn into a dynamically created webpage. I used excels export to a webpage, and I used yellowpipe.com to convert the source to php, so I didn't have to hand code the entire table. This works just fine. I'm currently going through the entire page to add the actual database calls. Just wondering if somebody with more experience has ever tried to do something similar? Any pros/cons, different ways to accomplish this are welcome. I need some help and hopefully will respond. I'm trying to put some information to the second row of the excel sheet once extracted. Can somebody help me with this script? I'm trying to move the address line to the second row. Thanks. Hello, i am currently getting an Microsoft Excel formatted text file whose save type is .Txt from a URL.I used to open it and will change the save type as excel file. Please suggest whether we can do this with php code. currently my code is like this, <? php copy("http://www.faa.gov/airports/airport_safety/airportdata_5010/menu/emergencyplanexport.cfm?Region=&District=&State=&County=&City=LAS%20VEGAS&Use=&Certification=","./contactsexport.xls"); ?> where as the contactsexport.xls type is .Txt which i need it in .xls Thanks in Advance. I have a simple form which sends results (using php) to my email. It works fine. I want to make a similar form, and send the results not to email but to another web page, showing a summary of the form results, so user can check if all is entered correctly before continuing. Can anyone advise if this is possible and how. I am a real php beginner ... Hi, I have search form which works apart from 1 part, I have set the results limit to 10 per page with a next link if there are more than 10 results, however when the next link is clicked, i get the error 'you do not have a search parameter' which comes from this code: Code: [Select] if (!isset($var)) { echo "<p>We dont seem to have a search parameter!</p>"; exit; } The next link is defined by the code below: Code: [Select] // check to see if last page if (!((($s+$limit)/$limit)==$pages) && $pages!=1) { // not last page so give NEXT link $news=$s+$limit; echo " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$news&q=$var\">Next 10 >></a>"; } Can anyone see where I have gone wrong with this code without me sending the whole search form? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks Hello. I am interested in taking a result returned from a database and having it displayed in a certain way/style on the user's screen; For example, the user enters text into a field and hits "submit" - the data is saved in the database then displayed to the user (This part I have working just fine so far due to help I received here.) My question is if I would like to, for example, have said text not simply dumped to the top of the screen, inline, but nicely formatted in a boxed, text area, I assume I will use HTML/CSS, and I was wondering if anyone had any good links/tutorials regarding this topic so I may look further into it (my search thus far has not turned up the correct topic or results). Thank-you in advance for any assistance. ~Matty
Hello,
<?php Hi Guys. I have some code which displays the rows of a database table in a html table on my webpage: Code: [Select] <?php//to display image from source$dir = "360_covers";echo '<table>';echo '<tr><th>Title</th><th>Cover</th><th>comment</th></tr>';$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM xbox_games order by gametitle");while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo "<tr><td>{$row['gametitle']}</td><td><img src=\"$dir/{$row['cover']}\" width='38' height='38'></td><td>{$row['cover']}</td></tr>";}//close out tableecho '</table>';?> What i want to do now is add a form, possibly at the end of each row of the html table, which will allow a session user to update that record. Can anybody advise on the best way to do this? I know the php is basic and not completed yet, but I am working on that. My next step I want the result to show on index.php when a form is submitted to calculator2.php. I just cant seem to get it. Please help! index.php Code: [Select] <div class="post"> <h2 class="title">Calculator</h2> <hr /> <form method="post" action="calculator2.php"> Fireplace Front Width: <input type="text" name="fw"> <br /> Fireplace Back Width: <input type="text" name="bw"> <br /> Fireplace Depth: <input type="text" name="fd"> <br /> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"> </form> Pounds Of Glass Needed: <?php echo $res1; ?> </div> calculator2.php Code: [Select] <?php $frontwidth = $_POST['fw']; $backwidth = $_POST['bw']; $firedepth = $_POST['fd']; $x = $frontwidth + $backwidth+ $firedepth; $y = ($x / 3) * .6667; $res1 = $y *2; echo $res1; ?> Sounds a bit long winded in the name so i'll explain... I'm coding a site where the user inputs their vehicle reg, and submits the form. The site will then show their car's details. This is being done using an external service that provides an up to date database of vehicle details. So far, i've got the form and when you submit it, it returns the vehicle data in an XML, but the XML it displays is remote. I need to retrieve the details back to the website to display on the page. Here is what I have already: Code: [Select] <html> <head> <title>Reg Test Page</title> </head> <body> <form method="post" action="https://www.****.com/UAT/"> <input type="hidden" name="ESERIES_FORM_ID" value="B2INT"> <input type="hidden" name="MXIN_USERNAME" value="****"><br /> <input type="hidden" name="MXIN_PASSWORD" value="****"><br/> REG<input type="text" name="MXIN_VRM" value="REG NUM"><br /> <input type="hidden" name="MXIN_TRANSACTIONTYPE" value="03"><br /> <input type="hidden" name="MXIN_PAYMENTCOLLECTIONTYPE" value="02"><br /> <input type="hidden" name="MXIN_CAPCODE" value="1"><br /> <input type="submit" /> </form> </body> </html> I've ***'d out some details for obvious reason. The form currently works fine and returns a valid XML response, but it's remote. My original plan was to get the form to load up in another php file that processes the detail and sends a file_get_contents() request, but looking at the results page on the xml, there is no extension to the posted url and if you go directly to it, you get the error "METHOD NOT ALLOWED. ONLY 'POST' IS ALLOWED." The other issue I have is that i'm not sure how it's handling the request, and the url is not modified, so i'm not sure how i'd set an url with values to retrieve it? Any help is gratefully received. Cheers Guys. Hi, I'm currently learning PHP through tutorials and I am working on a webpage that filters statistics (crime records) from an SQL table and filters them by an option of years that the user has picked from a dropdown box. $desiredyear = $_POST['year'] is the year picked from the drop down box on a different page. I did not encounter any problems simply displaying the entire table until I tried to filter the crimes by year. I keep getting this error message. Warning: sqlsrv_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\RDEUsers\NET\400792\1.php on line 40 Here is the error line. Code: [Select] while($row = sqlsrv_fetch_array($results, SQLSRV_FETCH_ASSOC)) And here is my code so far Code: [Select] <?php $server = 'SQL2008'; $connectionInfo = array( "Database"=>"rde_400792"); $conn = sqlsrv_connect($server,$connectionInfo); $desiredyear = $_POST['year']; $describeQuery='select year, force, homicide from crime where year = $desiredyear '; $results = sqlsrv_query($conn, $describeQuery); echo '<table border="1" BORDERCOLOR=Black>'; echo '<tr><th bgcolor = "LightBlue">Year</th><th bgcolor = "LightBlue" >Force</th><th bgcolor = "LightBlue">Homicide</th></tr>'; while($row = sqlsrv_fetch_array($results, SQLSRV_FETCH_ASSOC)) { echo '<tr>'; echo '<td >' .$row['year'].'</td>'; echo '<td>' .$row['force'].'</td>'; echo '<td>' .$row['homicide'].'</td>'; echo '</tr>'; } echo '</table>'; sqlsrv_close($conn); Please can somebody help me fix this? It's driving me mad and I've exhausted my limited knowledge on the subject. I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong. EDIT: sorry - new to posting guidelines - using XAMPP with mysql 5.1.44 (I think this is correct!!) Newbie question he I have successfully created a form that that displays students (based on a selected lesson/group/date) with the ability to enter scores. I'm now trying to set the form up so that if data already exists then it is displayed in the form. Eg: if a member of staff choses group 7AS, lesson 1, 24/09/2010 and another member of staff has entered a score already for one student it shows up in the <select> drop down by using Code: [Select] <option>" . $scorevalue . "</option> I had this working at one point but have made a change somewhere and cannot get it working again! can anyone spot an obvious mistake I am making? The code I am using is as follows: Code: [Select] <input type="hidden" name="tutor" value="<?php echo $_GET["tutor"]; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="date" value="<?php echo $_GET["date"]; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="lesson" value="<?php echo $_GET["lesson"]; ?>" /> <?php error_reporting(-1); $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root",""); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("lakeside", $con); $result = mysql_query("SELECT students.admin, students.fname, students.surname, students.tutor FROM students WHERE tutor='$_GET[tutor]' ORDER BY students.tutor, students.surname"); echo "<table class='scores'> <tr> <th>Admin</th> <th>Firstname</th> <th>Surname</th> <th>Tutor</th> <th>Score</th> <th>Code</th> <th>Comment</th> </tr>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $sqlstatement = "SELECT * FROM scores where admin = '" . $row['admin'] . "' and lesson = '" . $_GET[lesson] . "' and date = '" . $_GET[date] . "' "; $scorevalue = mysql_query($sqlstatement); echo " . $score . "; while($rowvalue = mysql_fetch_array($scorevalue)) { $score = $rowvalue['score']; $comment = $rowvalue['comment']; $code = $rowvalue['code']; } echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $row['admin'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['fname'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['surname'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['tutor'] . "</td>"; echo "<td><select name='score" . $row['admin'] . "' value='{$row['score']}' /> <option>" . $scorevalue . "</option> <option>0</option> <option>1</option> <option>2</option> <option>2.5</option> <option >3</option> <option>3.5</option> <option>4</option> </select> </td>"; I am using Dreamweaver CS4 to build a website. On my contact page, I made a form with spry validation. I used a tutvid tutorial to learn a simple form handler script (I'm a complete newb at PHP) and everything works great. The only problem I'm having is, in my Dreamweaver template, I have an editable region that has the form. When the user clicks to submit the form, a new html page opens up that looks nothing like my website. What I'm trying to accomplish is having the form disappear and be replaced in the same editable region with my "thank you" message. This way, the user just submits, the form disappears, and they get a thank you message on the same page, in the same place where the form was. Here is the form code: Code: [Select] <form id="frmContact" name="frmContact" method="post" action="contact_form.php"> <fieldset><legend>Submit a question or comment...</legend> <p> <label for="name">Name:</label> <span id="spryName"> <input type="text" name="name" id="name" /> <span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">Name is required.</span><span class="textfieldMinCharsMsg">Must have at least 3 characters.</span><span class="textfieldMaxCharsMsg">Must not exceed 20 characters.</span></span></p> <p> <label for="email">Email:</label> <span id="spryPassword"> <input type="text" name="email" id="email" tabindex="10" /> <span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">Email address is required.</span><span class="textfieldInvalidFormatMsg">Not a valid email address.</span><span class="textfieldMinCharsMsg">Not a valid email address.</span><span class="textfieldMaxCharsMsg">Not a valid email address.</span></span></p> <p> <label id="message" for="question">Please tell us how we can help you:</label><br /> <span id="spryText"> <textarea name="question" id="question" cols="45" rows="5" tabindex="20"></textarea><br /> <span class="textareaRequiredMsg">A question or comment is required.</span><span class="textareaMinCharsMsg">Must have 16 characters minimum</span><span class="textareaMaxCharsMsg">Must not exceed 500 characters.</span></span></p> <p> <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" tabindex="30" /> </p> </fieldset> </form> Here is the PHP script: <?php /* Subject and Email variables */ $emailSubject = 'Contact Form Response'; $webMaster = 'centerline.computers@gmail.com'; /* Gather Data variables */ $nameField = $_POST['name']; $emailField = $_POST['email']; $questionField = $_POST['question']; $body = <<<EOD <br><hr><br> Name: $nameField <br> Email: $emailField <br> Message: $questionField <br> EOD; $headers = "From: $emailField\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n"; $success = mail($webMaster, $emailSubject, $body, $headers); /* Results rendered as HTML */ $theResults = <<<EOD <html><body> <h2>Thank you for submitting.</h2> <p>We will get back to you as soon as possible.</p> </body> </html> EOD; echo "$theResults"; ?> Thanks for any help you might have for me!
