PHP - How To Make Games.php?id=
Hey guys. I am building a games website, and I am using ID (example: games.php?id_) to view games with their Title, SWF file to play, and their Image Icon. I am basically fetching information per game using ID that is typed in the URL after my website address containing the '?id_' or '?id='. Can somebody tell me whats wrong with the code I have bellow, because it's not working. I always get parse error (T_STRING) at line 9.
This code is inside my games.php page. It doesn't seem to work. ================================ <?php $conn = mysql_connect("host", "username", "password"); mysql_select_db("games"); $game_id = $_GET['id']; $sql = "SELECT * FROM games WHERE id='$game_id' LIMIT 1"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or die(mysql_error()); $number_of_results = mysql_num_rows($result); while ($result_array = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { $id = $result_array['fldID']; $title = $result_array['fldTitle']; $graphic = $result_array['fldIconSmall']; // Example: game1234.png $swf = $result_array['fldSwfSrc']; // Example: game1234.swf $graphic_file_location = 'http://www.blabla.com/games/images/' . $graphic; $swf_file_location = 'http://www.blabla.com/games/' .$swf; echo '<a href="http://www.blabla.com/games.php?id=' . $id . '"></a>'; echo '<h1>' . $title . '</h1>'; echo '<img src="' . $graphic_file_location . '" width="50" height="50" border="0" />'; echo '<object width="550" height="400">'; echo '<param name="movie" value="' . $swf_file_location . '">'; echo '<embed src="' . $swf_file_location . '" width="550" height="400">'; echo '</embed>'; echo '</object>'; } ?> ================================ Any help would be appreciated since so far this script has not executed at all. I keep getting an error when executing this entire script. I can't find any errors in it either..but it just doesn't work. Similar TutorialsIs there anyway to have users play flash games on my forum and if they win/etc, send them Forum Gold? Wouldn't it be easy to hack it though by just changing the data being sent from the flash app with tamper data? I want to put a poker flash game on my site, and if users play poker/etc and if they win, I want to run a mysql query to update there account with more "Forum gold" If you will, and I want the poker flash game to have correspond and work with the amount of Forum Gold that they have? Would this have to be custom coded by me If I learn actionscript? OR is there anything out like this that I can use?

<div class="catgames"> Hey guys, I have been programming for a while and I want to know what sort of design patterns I should look into when making a game? For example what design pattern is best for: Database management User management Forum management Etc I can only think of singleton or factory (for user/forum) I am reasonably new to OOP, but would like to learn it properly, so I thought creating a simple program such as rock-paper-siccors would work to be able to expand it eventually, and hopefully it will teach me reusable code practice. Hi, I own a website called www.gpstudios.com, a flash games site. I didn't design it myself, but since having it built a year ago, I understand pretty much all of the inne workings. I'm a game coder so php makes good sense to me. Anyway, i woudl like to change the way a game info (instructions, description) is fetched. Currently, we have 650 games in our database. The way all the info is gotten is through mySQL. So, what I would like to do is take these lengthy instructions/description strings and put them each into a text file, within the folder destination of the game. Currently though, we don't even have a folder destination for each game, which is also a problem. Some games have extra files, which our site-developers didn't account for. There are several games that we've had to manually put into folders because of this problem (two .xml files cannot be named the same in the same folder) Also, if you go onto my website and click on a game, you get sent to playgame.php?id=xxx The main thing I would like to change though (which I have attempted before, but not succeeded with) would be to change the url adress of the games to something more like: www.gpstudios.com/games/game_name/ This is how most game websites do it. When I tried to do this myself, what I did was to simply create an index.php within the folder of one of the aforementioned games, and within this folder I wrote something as simple as: include("../../../playgame.php?id=xxx"); But upon loading this page, I would receive a load of error messages regarding all the other includes and requires in the playgame.php. So by inserting playgame.php?id=xxx in this deep folder, it destroys all other directory links elsewhere. I investigated and found that inserting set_include_path($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']) would fix the problem with all these links, but it didnt - while the page loads, it appears to ignore anything that isn't in the root directory, including images. I tried the include method with loads of different files, and they just wouldn't load correctly if they used anything outside the root directory. And my final wish would be to do all of this automatically. To simply write a php file that I would run once and it would generate all the directories for me. It would need to copy every single description and instructions from mySQL and put them within text files within directories which are named after the game. I would then need to automatically create a load of index.phps for each individual game with some simple code similar to: include("../../../playgame.php?id=xxx"); Obviously it would be silly to create a load of unique index files with a hard copy of playgame.php, incase I want to give my site a makeover at some stage. I'm asking alot aren't I? Well I know that if I was given the code from another games website, I would understand it and it would be easy to implement, but unfortunately, despite searching, downloading and installing over 10 Flash Game arcade scripts, none of them used this method... despite their demo page showing that they do. Mainly, all I need to know is how to is how to generate a php/text file, and then I need to know what method I would use for getting the playgame.php running correctly from within a different folder. I'm pretty sure I could do the rest on my own then. Thanks! Basically I am setting up my own cricket management game, but there are 3 areas that I am slightly stuck on and would appreciate help: 1) When a use registers, I need to create 11 players for their team. For this, I am going to have one text files with first names and one text file with surnames. How can I open each file and select a name and then match them together? 2) I need to create the list of games to be executed at particular times through a cron job. How can I go through all the teams in a table and match them together in games, ensuring everyone plays everyone? If a new player registers, he will be put into a random league and so the games for that league will have to be redone 3) How can I set up a cron job to execute the above games? Each team should play once a day and so if there are 24 teams in a table, there will be 12 games that occur through this cron job. I assume cron jobs are the best thing for this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Hi Guys.

Edited March 28, 2020 by Ben555 Okay so my news script is set to view only 10 pieces of news. But I want it so that it starts a new page once I have more than 10 pieces of news. Code: [Select] <?php require("functions.php"); include("dbconnect.php"); session_start(); head1(); body1(); new_temp(); sotw(); navbar(); $start = 0; $display = 10; $query = "SELECT * FROM news ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $start, $display"; $result = mysql_query( $query ); if ($result) { while( $row = @mysql_fetch_array( $result, MYSQL_ASSOC ) ) { news_box( $row['news'], $row['title'], $row['user'], $row['date'], $row['id'] ); } mysql_free_result($result); } else { news_box( 'Could not retrieve news entries!', 'Error', 'Error', 'Error'); } footer(); mysql_close($link); ?> I tried a few things but they failed....miserably. Hi there, As the question says i tried several things but i can't work it out and my knowledge about php isn't that well. $looponce = 1; foreach ($this->info as $k => $v) { if ( (($k == 'subject') && ($v['required'])) && (!$this->settings['customSubject'])) { for ($i = 0; $i <= 0; $i++) { $output[] = $this->display_errors('error_system_subject'); } } if ( (($k == 'name') && (!$v['required'])) || ((!array_key_exists("name", $this->info)) && ($looponce == 1)) ) { $output[] = $this->display_errors('error_system_name'); $looponce++; } } That is my loop that i check things in. What i'm more interested in is the name if statement. If currently checks for a name key in an array(below) and makes sure that it is set to required. If it's not set to required, print out a system error and die()'s. I'm looking for ways to remove the need for program errors and just change them to what is needed to run. What i know how to do is, get into the inner array, what i don't know is how to edit the data and put it back exactly as it was given to me. The inner array data can be put back in any order, but the outer array must be in exact order as it was given. above code $this->info = $formdata; $formdata = array( 'name' => array('name'=>"Full Name", 'required'=>false, 'type'=>'text'), # This needs to be required=>true, but i can't trust the user, which is why i have the error. 'telephone' => array('name'=>"Telephone", 'required'=>false, 'type'=>'phone'), ); Any help is greatly appreciated, also am i doing the foreach loop in the code above in an efficient manner or is there another way? Hi I just wanted to know how I can make this.... I want to write this in PHP, I dont know the best way to do this.... I am starting a software development company, Each time someone make a purchase of a software product I wan to include a cd key, I dont know how to include just one cd key... I want to place the cdkeys in a mysql db though which I know how to do, but just the fact of me taking only one cdkey out of it and it can't be used already... it has to go down the line how would I do this? Thanks ahead of time ok I need to know how to do this say I have variables.. like so $a[] = 12345; $a[] = 23456; $a[] = 35424; what do I have to do to get those variables to combine the value? and make that a variable? so it would be like $aCompiled = 12345,23456,35424, puts them in a string then I can use the variable later on in the script.. I have a MySql table full of records. id owner car location on my page i have these results in a table i want to set a filter up so the table will only show cars from eg location England. at the minute its just set to show cars that owner has but i want a location filter any help I have some code which i think is really inefficient especially as there will be more more conditions to be met. I was thinking about using s switch but don't know if this is possible or if it's best leaving as it is. Any ideas? if($parts[($i-1)]=="forum") { //do some code } else if($parts[($i-2)]=="forum") { //do code } else if (($parts[($i-1)]=="list-messages") && (isset($parts[($i+1)]))) { //do code } else { // do some code } Hi I had it on my old site but forgot what I put in the index.php file. Basicly, I want something like this: http://site.com/index.php?go=home or: http://site.com/index.php?home Does anyone know what I put in the index.php file to specify link and where it redirects too? Thank you. I used this code $limit = 120; if (strlen($summary) > $limit) $summary = substr($summary, 0, strrpos(substr($summary, 0, $limit), ' . . .')); This code ok in English Language it counts letters fine but it is not work fine if I insert Arabic text. It counts Arabic encoding characters. So I'm trying to make a counter that counts how many times a record on mysql database has been viewed. Not a hit counter for a webpage. In other words I have a page that displays the info of that record from the mysql database and within that page I would like to display the amount of times it has been viewed. Would anyone know where I can begin or send me to a good tutorial? Thanks I am using this line of code my site Code: [Select] <?php echo (IMAGES_HEADER . "header_02.jpg" ?> I have a page defining all my directories, on that page I have this Code: [Select] define('IMAGES_HEADER', DIR_IMAGES . 'header/'); instead of showing the image, all I am getting is "IMAGES_HEADERheader_02.jpg" where the image should be. I am very new to PHP and trying to learn it, what in the world am I doing wrong?? Rab Basically, All I want to do is save a .txt (doesn't have to be .txt) to my FTP and PHP simple echos it. The .txt is where a message is stored. But when I write the message my self like this: Hello This is a message. - And then upload it to my FTP, PHP echos it like this "HelloThis is a message". Is there anyway for PHP to notice the 'white space'? --OR-- If you know of a better way to make a message system, then also let me know Thanks, Ollie!
