PHP - For And While Loops In Plain English
Hello, I dont really understand the for and while loops. And I have bad vocabulary so, can explain these two things in plain english.
Thanks Similar TutorialsThis topic has been moved to HTML Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=331697.0 Hy i read the topic about the md5 insecurity and the collision possibility.... And now i have a following question. Is it not MUCH more secure to store the actual password in the DB then the md5 value of it?? Because you with it eliminate the collision possibility of the md5 completely. And I am aware of the possibility that someone could break into my DB but if I am dumb enough to let someone access my db, but that is not an issue. I can always use a 2way encryption to store the data. I have a php script that I am trying to run ( I dindt write it) but the index.php file loads basically all of the php file in plain text instead of running it. Any sugguestions? PHP is isntalled since other php scripts work.
Thanks
hello dear php-experts,
well i want to do some data-saving in the next few days. i have some data amount to store in a mysql-db.
well i am pretty sure this is a easy question for php-freaks
the question is: from plain-text to mysql-db: how to store a triple / array? how to store this data into a mysql-db have a dataset of 10 000 lines: {'data_1': 'data_2', 'data_3': 'data_4', 'data_5': 'data_6', 'data_7': 'data_8'}
how to store this dataset into the mysql db ? love to hear from you greetings Im inserting HTML into a database, and then outputting it on a PHP page. Its an iframe code, so when I output it, it shows the iframe. I need it to just display the HTML code. How can I do this? I thought it would be something simple but I can find anyway to do it. Help very appreciated!! Thanks I have a comment form in which the users type thier comment in english.Those pcomments should appear in the native laguage other than english in my website.Is there any php code to do this.i dont have any idea of creating a site other than english. I'm getting data from a third party API and the first_name and last_name fields from this third party are sometimes not in english and they come out quite odd looking. Example... "first_name": "Pesh\u042fo", "last_name": "\u062d\u0633\u064a\u0646" How could I normalize that using PHP to make it readable again?

How can I get it to count the number of while loops and stop at 10? Code: [Select] while (odbc_fetch_row($rs)) { } Hello everyone, I've already posted a question trying to resolve my problem, but I've changed my code so much, I figured it may be best just to post a new thread with a better explanation of what I'm trying to do. Anyway, here's what I've got: I have a database with 2 tables: products and reservations. I have 3 products for now, that can be reserved for any date. I'm trying to create a page that will display all of the available products for a specific date. The user selects the date they want to check, and then the code should check their selected date and compare it with the database to display everything that is available on that date. The database looks like this: Products Table: prodid prodname 01 item 1 02 item 2 03 item 3 Reservations Table: prodid resdate 01 02/22/2012 01 02/23/2012 03 02/22/2012 Here is the code that I have now: Code: [Select] <?php $resultres = mysql_query("SELECT `prodid` FROM reservations WHERE `resdate` = '$resdate'") or die (mysql_error()); while ($rowres = mysql_fetch_row($resultres)) { $resprodid = $rowres[0]; $resultavail = mysql_query("SELECT `prodid` FROM products WHERE `prodid` != '$resprodid'") or die (mysql_error()); while ($rowavail = mysql_fetch_row($resultavail)) { $prodid = $rowavail[0]; echo $prodid; echo $proname; } } ?> When I select 02/21/2012, I get no results, where I should get all three products as a result, because none of them are reserved on this date. When I select 02/22/2012, I get a result of these products, in this order: 02, 03, 01, 02. I should get a result of ONLY 02, because this is the only product that isn't reserved for this date. When I select 02/23/2012, I get a result of 02 and 03, which in this case would be the correct return, because 01 is the only one reserved for this date. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here and how to fix it? Any help is GREATLY appreciated! Hi guys
I just wanted to make a short post and talk about an issue im having and maybe get some advice. I know that loops aren't that hard to grasp and I shouldn't be having this much trouble understanding them but im just not getting it. I dont really know how to explain it but loops (like looping through mysql in an update statement) is foren to me and i was wondering if anyone had any advice for maybe learning them or maybe something im just over looking or maybe some good tutorials. I really want to get them down and start using them in scripts i right but im getting so frustrated because i constantly hear how easy they are and im just not getting it. if i wasn't clear please let me know and ill try to explain more clearly thanks guys JL Hi All, and thanks for your help on my last problem now solved. What i am doing is building a job site and it needs info put in from job seekers regarding their qualifications. Some will have 2 some may have 10 and so on. I need to set up a system that I can put say 10 text boxes in a form that can then go in a MySQL. I only want the filled out boxes to go into the database and not the ones left blank. I have no idea as to where to start with but I think I need to loop through until it comes to the last filled out box but not enter the blank text boxes. i have no idea where to start on this one so if any one has thoughts on this it would be great. Thank you all for your help in the past. Did PHP a few years ago and for the life of me i can't work out why this doesn't work: Code: [Select] for ( $counter2=1; $counter2 < 1000; $counter2++) { for ( $counter1=1; $counter1 < 1000; $counter1++) { echo "Fixed bug"; } } and yet this does Code: [Select] for ( $counter2=1; $counter2 < 100; $counter2++) { for ( $counter1=1; $counter1 < 100; $counter1++) { echo "Fixed bug"; } } I tested it because I have a rather large amount of data to retrieve from an XML file and i kept receiving errors i have been given this task in in uni. i was wondering it some one would be so kind to help me with it. all i have so far is this <?php for($x=1; $x<=3; $x=$x+1) { print "$x <br>"; } if ($x== "A") { } ?> the task is below Generate a number between 1 & 3 If 1 then assign A, If 2 then assign B, If 3 then assign C Add to a wordstring (using string concatenation with .) We need 3 letters generated to give a 3 letter word For loop (3) Generate a number between 1 & 3 If 1 then assign A, If 2 then assign B, If 3 then assign C Add to a wordstring (string concatenation with .) End loop Print 3 letter word i am having issues with my class work. this needs to start at the $startNum and end with the $endNum and display results in the increments submitted by the html. I can not get it to print out correctly it is supposed to say: The square of $startNum is $square //until it hits the end number and is going up by the correct increments, It wont go up by any increments and only shows a list if i leave out the increment-----any suggestions??? please i have to keep it very simple since i am just learning-ty html </head> <body> <h1>Squares</h1> <p> <form action = "squares2Boles.php" method = "post" > <p>Start with: <input type = "text" size = "5" name = "startNum" /> </p><p>End with: <input type = "text" size = "5" name = "endNum" /> </p><p>Increment by: <input type = "text" size = "5" name = "increment" /> </p><p><input type = "submit" value = "Display the Squares" /></p> </form> </body> </html> my php: <html> <head> <title>Squares</title> <link rel ="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="sample.css" /> </head> <body> <?php $startNum = $_POST['startNum']; $endNum = $_POST['endNum']; $increment = $_POST['increment']; $square = $_POST['square']; print ("<h1>SQUARES</h1><hr />"); for ($startNum = $startNum; $startNum <= $endNum; $startNum = $startNum + $increment) { $square = $startNum * $startNum; print ("The square of $startNum is $square<br />"); } print ("<hr />"); ?> </body> </html> Hi, I'm trying to create a script that imports a CSV file but gives the user 3 options: 1. If Exists Update 2. If Exists Keep Both 3. If Exists Ignore New The keep both is easy, I just insert everything without checks. However, the other 2 are a little bit tricky (in my mind anyway). I've been told I could create loops and that there isn't any easy way to do this with MySQL. I cannot use ON DUPLICATE KEY because the column that I'm checking cannot be unique (because I have the keep both option). Is it efficient in PHP to create a loop that checks each row to see if it exists? I'm a little hesitant because the files could be big and I'm not sure how efficient PHP is with CPU and memory resources. The App I'm making is designed to run in a business environment but it may run on servers that are handling more than one thing (not just web services). If anyone could give me a few pointers I'd be most grateful. Thanks. Hey everyone, Been a while since I posted. I hope everyone is doing well. I've built a couple of for() loops into my program and I'm getting some inconsistent results. The first loop I made was just a simple counter looking like this: Code: [Select] <select name="event_name"> <?php for($x = 1; $x <= 50; $x++){ if($x < 10){ echo "<option value=\"$x\">Event 0$x:"; echo "</option>"; } else{ echo "<option value=\"$x\">Event $x:"; echo "</option>"; } } ?> </select> This code works perfect. The 1st entry in my drop down list is event 1, then event 2 etc. now i have basically the same code on the another selection: Code: [Select] <select name="date" <?php for($x = 1; $x <= 24; $x++){ if($x < 10){ echo "<option value=\"$x\">0$x:00 EST"; echo "</option>"; } else{ echo "<option value=\"$x\">$x:00 EST"; echo "</option>"; } } ?> </select> however the generated code on this call starts with a result on 2 instead of 1 giving me 02:00 EST instead of 01:00 EST. I'm sure I could work around this by declaring some additional variables, but i'm just trying to figure out why i'm seeing different results between these two loops? any thoughts? thanks in advance for your help Hello, lately I have been having a problem with my simple PHP script. Out of the blue the following script doesnt seem to work properly, function sanitize_tags($content, $bad_tags = '') { foreach ($bad_tags as $tag) { $stripped_tags = str_replace($tag, '', $content); return $stripped_tags; } return $content; } $contents = "<html> <head> </head> <body>yutu<style>ghghl;kl;<script>hfjhk </body> </html>"; $bad_tag = array("<style>", "<script>"); $sanitize = sanitize_tags($contents, $bad_tag); echo $sanitize; Basically, when the function is invoked, only the first element in the array is used by the function. It seems like the second+ elements arent even iterated. Why is it only the first element is iterated? I have a feeling its going to be something extremely obvious. Thanks in advance. i am sorry for this reason English is bad I want to use two nested loops ( while ) Once the model code will loop as in the picture will come under the colors of the model and the model code 1.while only model result 2. while it is of colors and unit after exit loop next code Code: [Select] <table width="376" cellspacing="0" class="stats" width:100%> <tr> <td colspan="9" align="center"><?php echo $secim ?></td> </tr> <?php while(odbc_fetch_into($sql_result, &$row)) { $unit1 = floor($row[3]); $unit2 = floor($row[4]); $unit3 = floor($row[5]); $unit4 = floor($row[6]); $unit5 = floor($row[7]); ?> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="left" valign="top"><?php echo"$row[0]";?></td> <td>36</td> <td>38</td> <td>40</td> <td>42</td> <td>44</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="114" align="right" valign="top"><img src= <?php echo"images/Resize/$row[2]"?>></td> <?php //this table block 1.while only model 2. while it is of colors and unit after exit loop ?> <td width="25" valign="top"><?php echo"$row[1]";?></td> <td width="25"valign="top"><?php echo"$unit1";?></td> <td width="25"valign="top"><?php echo"$unit2";?></td> <td width="25"valign="top"><?php echo"$unit3";?></td> <td width="25"valign="top"><?php echo"$unit4";?></td> <td width="25"valign="top"><?php echo"$unit5";?></td> </tr> <?php } }?> <?php odbc_free_result($sql_result); odbc_close($connection); ?> </table> |
