PHP - Moved: Adding Multiple Values From Mysql Columns

I am loading notifications from a database table called "notifications" and I am having a little trouble getting them to order in the correct way.

my query I'm using right now:

Code: [Select]
$query = mysql_query("SELECT B.* FROM (SELECT A.* FROM notifications A WHERE A.user_id='$session' AND A.from_id!='$session' ORDER BY A.id ASC ) AS B ORDER BY B.state ASC LIMIT 7");

this works well as far as showing the unread notifications on top, then the read notifications below, however it's not ordering the two sets by ID (which the id auto increments so the higher id number is the newest) from newest on top to the oldest on bottom, still keeping them separated by the unread on top, read on bottom (column name is state for showing whether they're read or not).
The order the notifications are displaying by their ID is:

3
5
2
4
1

when it should be:

5
3
2
4
1

I have a search set up to search a table for the text entered in a textbox, I have two columns in the table, one with the first name of people, and the second with their last names, I am wondering how I can search both, so for instance:

I type in the search field: Roger Smith

in the database it would look like:

First_name-----|-----Last_name
-------------------|-------------------
Roger------------|-------Smith

my current query is:

Code: [Select]
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE fname LIKE '%$find%' OR lname LIKE '%$find%'");
But if I type both parts of the name it doesn't return anything. works fine if I just search for "Roger" OR "Smith".

Hi People

i'm a newb at this so bare with me but i currently have a php file called Newkpi.php which has a select statement in. this selects data from a table called "StaffList".
this then populates the page with a html table with 14 records (this will increase/decrease over time) i then have some extra text boxes to enter more detail into like service amaount service date and so on.
when i click the submit button i want it to cycle through each row and insert the data into a separate table called "Services". however i cannot for the life of me get this to work and need some help with it. people find attached the code for Newkpi and see if you can help me with this.

in total i want it to take the names from stafflist and populate Services with the names and the extra detail which is entered on the page

Much Thanx in advance

hi all

please help...

i would like to get datas between certain intervals.
please have a look @ db_table.jpg, it's the db structure. the red highlighted part is the value i need.

condition is select values when both device one & device two are off.

db_table_report.jpg is the resulting report format. It contains start time & end time and the duration..

please help, i know it's a bit complicated, but it's urgent.

Apologies... I'm a noob trying to reverse engineer code.

I have a script that can retrieve values from a MySQL database (based on a session login that recognizes which user you are) and places those values  into the text fields of a form, pre-populating the form.

Code: [Select]
<?php
mysql_connect('localhost', 'db', 'password'); 
mysql_select_db('users');

$id     =  mysql_real_escape_string($_SESSION['userid']);
$select =  "SELECT * FROM user_info WHERE md5(Member_No) = '$id';";
$query  =  mysql_query($select);
if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
?>
<form>
FIRST name: <input type="text" name="First" value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['First']); ?>"
LAST name: <input type="text" name="Last"  value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['Last']); ?>" >
Birthday: <input type="text" name="Birthday" value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['Birthday']); ?>"
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<?php
}
?>

I want to be able to connect to that same database and update ALL the values (3 in the example above) with the single click of the form button.  I think I was told some time ago that it's not possible to update all the values at once?

Thanks,

~Wayne

So first of all, I have a confession, I used Dreamweaver to take care of all my database work. Pheww. Now that I got that of my chest, I am having problems, not only with my lack of experience working with databases, but with my script also. I need to insert multiple checkbox values into my database into the same cell. So I have searched around and I thought I had found a fairly good approach, but with Dw's hodgepodge of overcomplicated mess, I am finding problems integrating it. The error I am getting post submission is "Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in C:\wamp\www\gov\ballot.php on line 10
Column 'involvement' cannot be null" So if you would, could you debug my script and give me some instruction along to way so that I can learn a little something too? Here is my script:

<?php require_once('Connections/ballot.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
    $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  }

  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}
}

                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['party'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['time'], "text"));

  mysql_select_db($database_ballot, $ballot);
  $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $ballot) or die(mysql_error());

  $insertGoTo = "thanks.php";
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {

    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

Hello all,

   I am trying to learn OOP in PHP so please forgive my ignorance. I seem to be having difficulty inserting data into my database from checkbox items. My database has a column for each each fruit. I would like for each column to be populated with either a one(1) for checked or a zero(0)  for not checked. Currently, my attempts have failed. I can either get all checkboxes to insert all zeros or I can get the first column to insert a one(1) while the others as zeros. Is there anybody here that can help me figure out what I am doing wrong and help me to re-work my code so I can get this to work? If anybody can help me using OOP methods that would be fantastic. Thank you all in advance.

 

$preffruit->create_preffruit(array(

  'fruit_apple' => escape(Input::get(['fruit_selection'][0]) ? 1 : 0),
  'fruit_orange' => escape(Input::get(['fruit_selection'][1]) ? 1 : 0),
  'fruit_banana' => escape(Input::get(['fruit_selection'][2]) ? 1 : 0),
  'fruit_pear' => escape(Input::get(['fruit_selection'][3]) ? 1 : 0),
  'fruit_kiwi' => escape(Input::get(['fruit_selection'][4]) ? 1 : 0)

  ));

<input type="checkbox" name="fruit_selection[]" value="fruit_apple">
<input type="checkbox" name="fruit_selection[]" value="fruit_orange">
<input type="checkbox" name="fruit_selection[]" value="fruit_banana">
<input type="checkbox" name="fruit_selection[]" value="fruit_pear">
<input type="checkbox" name="fruit_selection[]" value="fruit_kiwi">



public function insert_preffruit($table, $fields = array()) {
			
			$keys = array_keys($fields);
			$values = '';
			$x = 1;			
			
			foreach($fields as $field) {
				$values .= '?';

				$x++;

Hello all! I'm having some issues with a snippet that I found online and have edited to how I want it.

Basically the code works at the moment, except if I were to search for 2 or 3 terms, it would search the columns username/action/result/changes for any result that have any of the words rather than results that include both terms, instead of either.

I want the query to be like (assuming 2 search terms):

Quote

username LIKE '%$filter%' OR action LIKE '%$filter%' OR result LIKE '%$filter%' OR changes LIKE '%$filter%' AND username LIKE '%$filter%' OR action LIKE '%$filter%' OR result LIKE '%$filter%' OR changes LIKE '%$filter%'


and not:

Quote

username LIKE '%$filter%' OR action LIKE '%$filter%' OR result LIKE '%$filter%' OR changes LIKE '%$filter%' OR username LIKE '%$filter%' OR action LIKE '%$filter%' OR result LIKE '%$filter%' OR changes LIKE '%$filter%'


It needs an AND instead of an OR, but I'm not sure how to go around doing it.

Here's the code as it is at the moment:

$filter = ($_POST['filter']); 

$query = "SELECT * FROM activity WHERE"; 

$searchresult = explode(" ", $filter); 

     foreach ($searchresult as $key => $filter) { 
$query .= " username LIKE '%$filter%' OR action LIKE '%$filter%' OR result LIKE '%$filter%' OR changes LIKE '%$filter%'"; 
     if ($key != (sizeof($searchresult) - 1))   
$query .= " AND ";
     }
$query .= "ORDER BY id DESC"; 

Sorry if this is a little confusing to understand, hope someone understands what I need.

I want to echo out a few subcategories per main category.
It should be a maximum of 20 entries per column

At this stage I have the following... It echo's the results out in 4 columns and not what I want.
Any suggestions?

$query = "SELECT 
adsubcat.name AS subname, adsubcat.linkname AS sublink, adcat.clinkname AS clink
FROM adsubcat 
JOIN adcat ON adcat.id=adsubcat.catid
WHERE adsubcat.catid='$catid' ORDER BY adsubcat.name ASC";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

$count = 0;

print '<table style="text-align:left;margin-left:0px;width:943px;">'."\n";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
$gal = '<a href="'.$root.'/'.$row['clink'].'/'.$row['sublink'].'">'.$row['subname'].'</a>';
if ($count == 0){
print '<tr>';
}
++$count;
print '<td>'.$gal.'</td>';
if ($count == 4){
$count = 0;
print'</tr>'."\n";
}
}
print'</table>'."\n";
}
