PHP - How Can I Achieve This Using Php?

Hi, I have table called done in mysql and there is a row which is filled with the users id and another row with todays date. Now what I want to know which three users participated the most with filling out stuff on the  website according to todays date.
For instance

First user filled out 5
2nd user filled out 3
3rd user filled out 2           You get the idea.

I dont know what type of query should I write to extract the data based on the users id and how many times they participated on the particular day.

Another example of the table is   1st column    user id = 20 time= todays date
                                                     2nd column  user id= 20  time = todays date     Showing the user participated twice on the day.   

 Thanks any help is appreciated.

I have a form which has both radio buttons and textfields. Each individual radio button is associated with a form field. For this example, lets say the Radio button references a tool name and the form field represents a quantity, or number of tools needed for a certain job. So the form would look as follows:

Quote

o Some Tool                Quantity ___ (<-- lets pretend thats a form field)



The question is, how would I go about adding the tool and quantity to the same row in the database if I am creating a new row? The simple way would be have each radio button and quantity be its own entity in the HTML. For example:

Code: [Select]
<input name="tool1" type="radio" value="Hammer" />
<input name="tool_quantity1" type="text" />

<input name="tool2" type="radio" value="Wrench" />
<input name="tool_quantity2" type="text" />
However easy this method may be, and however functional it may work, it is not how I wish to achieve this because we are talking maybe 100 tools. I think it would be easier using some kind of loop function that goes through an array of anything that has some form of data stored in it. For example, instead of the code being the above, I would like to change it to the following:

Code: [Select]
<input name="tools[]" type="radio" value="Hammer" />
<input name="tools_quantity[]" type="text" />
I understand the basic foreach function

Code: [Select]
foreach ($_POST['tools'] as $someVariableName) {
//do some stuff
}
But I don't understand how I can get the value of 2 different form fields and have them associated with one another. I want the tool and the quantity of tools to be stored in the same row. How is this done? Is this even possible using a loop function like foreach or while? Please help! As always, any help would be greatly appreciated!!

There are two effects that I have seen on website and keep wondering how they have been achieved.  The first is when you go on Facebook and you type a link into your status bar.  Then Facebook will automatically get some information about that article.  The second effect is something I have seen on twitter and other websites.  If you scroll down to the bottom of the page it will detect this and then load more content. 

If anyone could link me to any article or tutorials explain how these effects have been done that would be great. 

Thanks for any help. 

Hello all,

I'm looking for some advice on a problem.
I have a very basic web page containing three section, the header, the content and the footer in that order. What I would like is the header and footer always on the page and only the content section change by means of links in a navigation bar. I've looked into iframes, php include, javascript and something called Ajax and must say I'm all a bit confused by it all.

Which would be most advisable and how would I excecute it.

My pages are as follows.
Home page is.
index.php
Pages I would like to show in the content Div.
about.php
contact.php
home.php

If you need any more information, please let me know.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi, what i am after is for instance, the user is viewing my website. He is in a different section on my website and there is a sign in button. The user goes to the sign in page, now what i want is when the user logs in, the user to be redirected back to the section which he was viewing before signing in. Basically in more clear words, I want the user to return to the content he was viewing after logging in.
