PHP - Sorting Records With Pagination Problem!
Hi all,
I am currently returning candidates from a database initially just by the highest candidate id to the lowest... i.e. newest candidates to oldest. I have introduced a sort feature which works just fine, the problem is I am displaying my results over a few pages using pagination. The problem arises once I sort my results and then try to click onto the next page of results. Basically it is just resetting the sort as the sort relies on a button being pressed, which obviously isn't happening when the user is trying to get the next page of results. I'm not sure exactly which section of code would be relevant to this so I have posted the whole script... additionally if you need to take a look at it in action you can do so he http://www.beta.teachingagencies.co.uk/search_jobseekers.php As I say I know the problem is that when the page is changed the value is lost, but I don't have a clue how to solve the problem! Any help or advice would be appreciated. Many thanks, Greens85 Similar Tutorialscan anybody tell me what's wrong with my query ? $filesa = "SELECT id, uid, size, filehash, filename, dwnloads, swidth, sheight, fores, flabel, vpre FROM pf_fmusic WHERE (aid='$albumid' AND vpre='complete') ORDER BY id DESC"; I am using this in while loop with ps_pagination class but getting 2 records for same set of files. in other words its running while loop 2 time complete code is here... $filesa = "SELECT id, uid, size, filehash, filename, dwnloads, swidth, sheight, fores, flabel FROM ibwf_fmusic WHERE (aid='$albumid' AND vpre='complete') ORDER BY id DESC"; $pager = new PS_Pagination($conn, $filesa, 9, 5, $albumid, $sortid, $sub, $selectalbum3[uid], $title, $collective); $results = $pager->paginate(); while($files=mysql_fetch_array($results)) { // Blah Blah } Output is something like this 1. song 1 2. song 2 3. song 3 4. song 4 1. song 1 2. song 2 3. song 3 4. song 4 Thanks is advance I’m writing a small application that allows me/users to add their own inputs so they can store their own data. It’s kind of like, a user defined database. Think of a super simple “filemaker” kind of application. The way I’ve set this up is like this:
Table: item fields: item_id, user_id Table item_attribute Fields: item_attribute_id, item_id, name, valueAfter my query I end up with stuff like this: $data = array( 0=>array( '123'=>array( 'name'=>'Year', 'value'=>'1985' ), '7'=>array( 'name'=>'Title', 'value'=>'Title For 1985' ), '25'=>array( 'name'=>'Length', 'value'=>'60' ) ), 1=>array( '123'=>array( 'name'=>'Year', 'value'=>'1990' ), '7'=>array( 'name'=>'Title', 'value'=>'Title For 1990' ), '25'=>array( 'name'=>'Length', 'value'=>'44' ) ), 2=>array( '123'=>array( 'name'=>'Year', 'value'=>'1965' ), '7'=>array( 'name'=>'Title', 'value'=>'Title For 1965' ), '25'=>array( 'name'=>'Length', 'value'=>'122' ) ) );This seems to work great as there is no limit to what a user can add - it's working like I would like it to... But now that I’m trying to add sorting/filtering/pagination to results things have gotten extremely difficult on the back end. The only thing I can think of is to pull all the data and then use php algorithms to sort/filter/paginate before sending over to web page. I can see this getting slow if I eventually have to pull 1000s of records. Does anyone have advice in these matters? Should I rethink my db design? Can the results be used to create a temporary table and then sort on it? (don'n know how or if this is even possible) I need some help Thanks. Edited by fivestringsurf, 16 November 2014 - 12:28 PM. I am having trouble showing reports for a given date range. Currently if I specify something like 11/03/2010 to 11/05/2010 I get results for all years within that month and day such as I may get results for 11/03/2008 11/03/2009 11/03/2010 11/04/2008 11/04/2009 11/04/2010 11/05/2008 11/05/2009 11/05/2010. I am using the following code $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM report WHERE date>='$date_begin' and date<='$date_end' ORDER BY 'date'",$db); I use the following format in my date feild mm/dd/yyyy My script is finally working as intended, but I want to add some additional data results. I am trying to resolve how I can display a count of ONLY the records updated by my query: // START :: Query to replace matches mysql_query("UPDATE orig_codes_1a AS a JOIN old_and_new_codes_1a AS b ON concat(a.orig_code_1, a.orig_code_2) = concat(b.old_code_1, b.old_code_2) SET a.orig_code_1 = b.new_code_1, a.orig_code_2 = b.new_code_2") or die(mysql_error()); // END :: Query to replace matches In this query I count ALL records selection: // START :: Create query to be displayed as final results of original codes table. $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM orig_codes_1a") or die(mysql_error()); I want to display a count on this part of the query: ....concat(a.orig_code_1, a.orig_code_2) = concat(b.old_code_1, b.old_code_2).... Google Chrome Developer Tool causes an error when I run the following and there are not any records. I keep getting errors when I try to change it.

Hi Everyone, I have a page on my website that displays a list of products from a mysql database in a table. Currently when the column titles are clicked, the data is sorted in order with the highest first. $sort = $_GET['sort']; if ($sort == 'price') { $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY price DESC"); } else{ $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY product"); } ... echo "<a href='products.php?sort=price'>Price</a>"; Does anybody know how i would go about setting it up so that if the sort link is clicked a second time, the data is re ordered from descending to ascending? Then if the click is clicked again it would change back to descending, and so on.....? Many thanks I'm trying to figure out a way to incorporate multiple sorts on my php page. On the page of products, I want users to have three choices of links: one by date, one by price - low to high and one by price - high to low. I know how to perform ASC & DESC sorts in MySql but I'm not sure how to go about this sort with the three choices without creating more pages. I would really like it to stay with the same page. Is this even possible?? How would I go about it? Here is the section of code : $get_items_sql = mysql_query("SELECT id, thumb, username, sub_id, title, ROUND(price,2) AS price, date FROM product WHERE CURDATE() <= relist_date AND inactive IS NULL AND sold IS NULL AND cat_id = '1' ORDER BY date ") or die(mysql_error());; if (mysql_num_rows($get_items_sql) < 1) { $content = "<p><em>Sorry, no items in this category.</em></p>\n"; } else { $col = 0; $content .= "<ul>\n"; while ($items = mysql_fetch_array($get_items_sql)) { $item_url = "items3.php?id={$items['id']}&username={$items['username']}"; $item_title = stripslashes($items['title']); $item_price = $items['price']; $item_photo = $items['thumb']; $item_username = $items['username']; $item_date = $items['date']; $content .= ""; list($width) = getimagesize("image_files/{$item_photo}"); // set the maximum width of the image here $maxWidth = 100; if ($width > $maxWidth); $content .= "<table width=\"693\" border=\"0\" class=anotherfont><tr><td width=\"101\"> <a href=\"{$item_url}\"> <img alt=\"{$item_title}\" border=0 width=\"{$maxWidth}\" src=\"image_files/{$item_photo}\" /></a><td width=\"200\"> <a href=\"{$item_url}\">{$item_title}</a></td> <td width=\"109\">{$item_username}</td><td width=\"101\"> {$item_date}</td><td width=\"99\">\${$item_price} USD </td></tr></table>"; $content .= "\n"; Hello all.

Please help MOD EDIT: code tags added. Hi guys, this is my first post so be nice! I have an SQL select which returns the following cat_id cat_name parent_id 1 cat 1 0 2 cat 2 0 3 cat 3 0 4 cat 4 0 5 cat 5 1 6 cat 6 1 7 cat 7 0 The above shows that category 1 has 2 children. I have a script in place that basically filters the child entries into a new array, then I use two foreach loops to build a list of items with parent > child relationship. My code works, but is a mess and doesn't 'feel' as concise as it should be. What would be the best / most efficient way to build a child > parent list. (ideally i would want it to work on up to 4 tiers) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I new to php and I'm having problem with pagination. the problem is If I clicked next link or last page or any page link, it goes back to the home page and I've used PHP_SELF to establish the link. All I know something is wrong in my pagination link. May be there is pre defined value for PHP_SELF to be recorgnized or certain value is missing in my pagination link. Here is my code Code: [Select] include("conn.php"); if(($_POST["orga_name"]) && empty($_POST["title"])) { $sql = "select * from client_info where Name LIKE '%".$_POST["orga_name"]."%'"; $result = mysql_query($sql); $r = mysql_num_rows($result); include("form_search.php"); if ($r == 0 ){ echo "No records found"; } else { //pagination inaanzia hapa // how many rows to show per page $rowsPerPage = 5; // by default we show first page $pageNum = 1; // if $_GET['page'] defined, use it as page number if(isset($_GET['page'])) { $pageNum = $_GET['page']; } // how many pages we have when using paging $maxPage = ceil($r/$rowsPerPage); $offset = ($pageNum - 1) * $rowsPerPage; //pagination inaishia hapa $sql = "select * from client_info where Name LIKE '%".$_POST["orga_name"]."%' LIMIT $offset,$rowsPerPage"; $result = mysql_query($sql); //echo $r; echo "<table>"; echo "<tr><td class='title'>"."Name"."</td><td> </td><td class='title'>"."Box No"."</td><td> </td><td class='title'>"."Town/City"."<td></td><td> </td><td class='title'>"."Phone Number"."</td><td> </td><td class='title'>"."Email"."</td><td> </td><td class='title'>"."Website"."</td><td> </td></tr>"; $i=1; while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $name = $row["Name"]; $address = $row["POBoxNo"]; $town = $row["TownCity"]; $phonenumber = $row["OfficePhoneNumber"]; $email = $row["Email"]; $web = $row["Web"]; if($i%2){ echo "<tr><td class='odd'>"."<br>".$name."<br>"." "."</td><td> </td><td class='odd'>".$address."</td><td> </td><td class='odd'>".$town."<td></td><td> </td><td class='odd'>".$phonenumber."</td><td> </td><td class='odd'>".$email."</td><td> </td><td class='odd'>".$web."</td></tr>"; } else{ echo "<tr><td class='even'>"."<br>".$name."<br>"." "."</td><td> </td><td class='even'>".$address."</td><td> </td><td class='even'>".$town."<td></td><td> </td><td class='even'>".$phonenumber."</td><td> </td><td class='even'>".$email."</td><td> </td><td class='even'>".$web."</td></tr>"; } $i++; } echo "</table>"; // print the link to access each page $self = htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); $nav = ''; for($page = 1; $page <= $maxPage; $page++) { if ($page == $pageNum) { $nav .= " $page "; // no need to create a link to current page } else { $nav .= " <a href=\"$self?page=$page\">$page</a> "; } } // creating previous and next link if ($pageNum > 1) { $page = $pageNum - 1; $prev = " <a href=\"$self?page=$page\">[Prev]</a> "; $first = " <a href=\"$self?page=1\">[First Page]</a> "; } else { $prev = ' '; // we're on page one, don't print previous link $first = ' '; // nor the first page link } if ($pageNum < $maxPage) { $page = $pageNum + 1; $next = " <a href=\"$self?page=$page\">[Next]</a> "; $last = " <a href=\"$self?page=$maxPage\">[Last Page]</a> "; } else { $next = ' '; // we're on the last page, don't print next link $last = ' '; // nor the last page link } //echo $nav .

Hi guys, I'm having a little problem with a pagination code i'm using. Its for an image gallery, and I want to show the total amount of pictures in a set, and then the current picture displayed. I've got the total number, however its the current photo that i'm stuck on. Its linked into a mysql database, with two tables, one for the categories and the other for the photos. Category 1: Image ID 1, 2, 3 etc Category 2: Image ID 4, 5, 6 etc Now, my code works fine if they are all in order like this, but obviously images are deleted and replaced. so it could turn out like this: Category 1: Image ID 1, 2, 5, 8 etc Here is the code: $result = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(photo_id) FROM gallery_photos WHERE photo_category='".addslashes($cid)."' GROUP BY photo_category ") or die(mysql_error()); list($num_rows)=mysql_fetch_array($result); mysql_free_result( $result ); $counting = mysql_query("SELECT photo_id FROM gallery_photos WHERE photo_category='".addslashes($cid)."'

Thanks Edd I don't understand why this is happening. I use the same exact code (but different mysql table) and the pagination works fine. Here's the code: Code: [Select] ..... <body id="set-database"> <div class="wrapper"> <?php include("navigation.php"); ?> <div class="full"> <?php $make = $_POST["sel1"]; $model = $_POST["sel2"]; echo "$make - $model"; if ( $make == "--MAKES--" ) { echo "<div class=\"red\">Please select a Make</div>"; } else { echo "<center><font color=\"#3333FF\">$make</font> - <font color=\"#3333FF\">$model</font></center><br />"; $mysql_host = -- $mysql_database= -- $mysql_user = -- $mysql_password = -- $conn = mysql_connect("$mysql_host","$mysql_user","$mysql_password") or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $db = mysql_select_db("$mysql_database",$conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); // find out how many rows are in the table $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ACTIVE WHERE MODEL='$model'"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); $r = mysql_fetch_row($result); $numrows = $r[0]; // number of rows to show per page $rowsperpage = 5; // find out total pages $totalpages = ceil($numrows / $rowsperpage); // get the current page or set a default if (isset($_GET['currentpage']) && is_numeric($_GET['currentpage'])) { // cast var as int $currentpage = (int) $_GET['currentpage']; } else { // default page num $currentpage = 1; } // end if // if current page is greater than total pages... if ($currentpage > $totalpages) { // set current page to last page $currentpage = $totalpages; } // end if // if current page is less than first page... if ($currentpage < 1) { // set current page to first page $currentpage = 1; } // end if // the offset of the list, based on current page $offset = ($currentpage - 1) * $rowsperpage; $sql = "SELECT * FROM ACTIVE WHERE MODEL='$model' ORDER BY INDEX_ID DESC LIMIT $offset, $rowsperpage"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); echo " <table width=100% align=center border=1 class=\"mod\"><tr> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Rating</b></td> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Title</b></td> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Make/Model</b></td> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Type</b></td> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Difficulty</b></td> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Comments</b></td> <td align=center bgcolor=#00FFFF><b>Views</b></td> </tr>"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { { // Begin while $title = $row["TITLE"]; $type = $row["TYPE"]; $difficulty = $row["DIFFICULTY"]; $comments = $row["COMMENT_TOTAL"]; $id = $row['INDEX_ID']; $rating = $row["RATING_AVERAGE"]; $make = $row["MAKE"]; $model = $row["MODEL"]; $views = $row["HITS"]; echo " <tr> <td><div class=\"\">$rating/10</div></td> <td><div class=\"\"><a href=\"mod.php?id=$id\">$title</a></div></td> <td><div class=\"\">$make - $model</div></td> <td><div class=\"\">$type</div></td> <td><div class=\"\">$difficulty</div></td> <td><div class=\"\">$comments</div></td> <td><div class=\"\">$views</div></td> </tr>"; } } echo "</table><br />"; /****** build the pagination links ******/ echo "<center>"; // range of num links to show $range = 3; echo "<i>Page: </i>"; // if not on page 1, don't show back links if ($currentpage > 1) { // get previous page num $prevpage = $currentpage - 1; // show < link to go back to 1 page echo " <a stylehref='{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?currentpage=$prevpage'>Previous</a> - "; } // end if // loop to show links to range of pages around current page for ($x = ($currentpage - $range); $x < (($currentpage + $range) + 1); $x++) { // if it's a valid page number... if (($x > 0) && ($x <= $totalpages)) { // if we're on current page... if ($x == $currentpage) { // 'highlight' it but don't make a link echo " <b>$x</b> "; // if not current page... } else { // make it a link echo " <a href='{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?currentpage=$x'>$x</a> "; } // end else } // end if } // end for // if not on last page, show forward and last page links if ($currentpage != $totalpages) { // get next page $nextpage = $currentpage + 1; // echo forward link for next page echo " - <a href='{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?currentpage=$nextpage'>Next</a> "; } // end if /****** end build pagination links ******/ mysql_close($conn); } echo "$pagination</center>"; ?> <br /> <FORM><INPUT TYPE="button" class="btn" VALUE="Back" onClick="history.go(-1);return true;"> </FORM> </div> <?php include("footer.html"); ?> When I click the link for the next page and goes to it, there is nothing in the table (so the information isn't there).

Like I said, I use the same exact code except it pulls different information and that works no problem. Thanks! Hi guys, well I'm trying to formulate pagination view of my results from a Mysql query in my database. The thing is that the query is not known beforehand, since the user of the database can enter several search terms in text fields of the webpage (text_search.php) and when he hits the "Submit" button, the new page (retrieve_text.php) looks about which text fields have been filled and appends the values in the mysql query like this: Code: [Select] $text_query = ...... WHERE [user-defined conditions] Everything is OK until now. But I wanted to show the results more clear to the user, since it can have e.g 600 results so it's not so good to view them in a loooooooooong page. So I tried to paginate them. Now comes the problem: the first page looks Ok, and brings only 25 results, which I want to be the limit of results to show per page. BUT, when I click on the "Next button", I see nothing. The reason? In pages 2,3...N, the $text_query is empty since there are no values submitted through the $_POST variable..., So, in the 1st page, if I print the SQL query I have something like that: Code: [Select] SELECT DISTINCT protein.protein_id, protein.protein_name FROM protein LEFT JOIN protein_reference ON protein_reference.prot_ref_protein_id = protein.protein_id LEFT JOIN reference ON reference.reference_id = protein_reference.prot_ref_reference_id LEFT JOIN families ON protein.protein_families_id = families.families_id WHERE protein.protein_name LIKE '%protein%' ORDER BY protein.protein_id LIMIT 0, 25 while in the 2nd page for example I get: Code: [Select] SELECT DISTINCT protein.protein_id, protein.protein_name, protein.protein_seq_len, protein.protein_organism, protein_ncbi FROM protein LEFT JOIN protein_reference ON protein_reference.prot_ref_protein_id = protein.protein_id LEFT JOIN reference ON reference.reference_id = protein_reference.prot_ref_reference_id LEFT JOIN families ON protein.protein_families_id = families.families_id WHERE ORDER BY protein.protein_id LIMIT 25, 25 The reason is, as I wrote before, that the where clause in the sql statement is written on-the-fly so the sql search is dynamic and not static. If it was static, like Code: [Select] SELECT * from protein WHERE name LIKE '%protein%'; things would be straight-forward. What can I do? Should/Could I somehow "send" the sql query from page to page? I suppose this is BAD practice, but I don't really know how to proceed... I have included the php file I'm using. It is currently working on the internet, but doesn't work local. I'm not sure why. The last 2 lines of code call for the pagination and a footer of which neither show up on my local system. Any help would be appreciated.

That works fine, however, It seems when an image get bumped to a new page, it doesn't create a link to that said page. For example, In my Nature/Animals category, I have 5 images in there in total. It should create three pages and links to each page. It created the pages, but only shows "Previous 1 2." There isn't a Next button to page three at all. I have it set to show 2 images per page. So now I need to figure out how to get it right... This is my paging class Code: [Select] class paging { public function getPages($pages, $cid, $page_count) { global $db, $SK, $plang, $getURL; $this->pages = $pages; $this->cid = $cid; $this->page_count = $page_count; if(!isset($_GET['section'])) { $page = 1; } else { $page = $_GET['section']; } $prev = $page - 1; $next = $page + 1; $this->render = ''; if($prev > 0){ $this->render .= "<a href='{$getURL['site_url']}index/category/{$this->cid}/$prev'>Previous</a> "; } if($this->pages > 1){ if($pages >= 1 && $page <= $this->pages){ for($x=1; $x<=$this->pages; $x++) { $this->render .= " <a href='{$getURL['site_url']}index/category/{$this->cid}/$x'>$x</a> "; } } } if($page < ceil($this->pages/$this->page_count)){ $this->render .= "<a href='{$getURL['site_url']}index/category/{$this->cid}/$next'>Next </a> "; } return $this->render; } public function pageCount($table, $pid, $field, $page_count) { global $db; $this->pid = $pid; $this->field = $field; $this->page_limit = $page_count; $this->count_query = $db->getCount("SELECT * FROM $table WHERE `$this->field`=$this->pid"); $this->round_cr = ceil($this->count_query) / $this->page_limit; return $this->round_cr; } } And the bit of code that displays the images. Code: [Select] public function photoView(){ global $db, $SK, $plang, $PG; $photoid = (int) $_GET['id']; $field = 'catid'; $page_count = 2; $section = (isset($_GET['section']) AND (int)$_GET['section'] > 0) ? (int)$_GET['section'] : 1; if($section) { $page_start = ($section - 1) * $page_count; } else { $page_start = 0; } $start = $PG->pageCount('photos', $photoid, $field, $page_count); if(!empty($photoid)) { $photo_query = $db->query("SELECT * FROM photos WHERE catid='$photoid' ORDER BY `id` DESC LIMIT $page_start, $page_count"); $photo_result = $db->get(); if(count($photo_result) == '') { $this->render .= "No Images to display"; } else { $columns = $this->setresult[0]['colsnum']; $colnum = 2; $this->render .= $SK->photoHeader(); foreach ($photo_result as $pkey => $pvalue) { if($colnum < $columns) { if($colnum == 0){ $this->render .= "<tr>"; } $this->render .= $SK->photoRow($pvalue); } else { $colnum = 0; $this->render .= $SK->photoRow2($pvalue); } $colnum++; } $this->render .= $SK->photoFooter(); $this->render .= "<div style=\"text-align: center;font-weight: bold;\">" . $PG->getPages($start, $pvalue['catid'], $page_count) . "</div>"; } } else { $this->render = "Error: You have chosen the wrong path"; } return $this->render; } You can go to my Nature and Animals category at my site to see the problem Here. You will see the links, but once you go to page 2 there isn't a page three. If you change the 2 to a 3 in the address bar , you will see another image. Like this. You will see that the page links one and two disappear and leaves the previous link... So any idea on what the problem is? I need help -____- I know this problem comes up a lot but it can be for various reasons so after reading up I can't decide what might be wrong. I'm still learning! I have a simple php registration form (first name, second name, email address) and every time a user submits an entry a second blank record is created in the MYSQL database after it. Any help would be great.

Are there any basic steps I can take? |
