PHP - Database Result Itemization ? Database Vs Filing System?
hello everyone,
I am about to start coding my pages to display results from a database but before i do i want to know information about the following : Is it best to upload images to a database?and display them accordingly? or is it best to use images from a directory? What is most commonly used and or more reliable? Another topic i have trouble finding information on is actually positioning the output from you mysql database, is this practice done with tables?fields and rows? What is this method called? And is there more then one way to go about controlling result layout on your page? Sorry about the 1001 questions , but i am unable to find a clear answer on the topic ..especially question two . Thanks in advance. Similar TutorialsHello Guys, I have a column named message_status it can only have the values "read" or "unread" in it. I would like to show an image in the column next to it. If the message is "read" then I would like to display a green dot, and if it is unread I would like to display a red dot. I would also like to be able to have anything in the row that's "unread" to appear in bold. I completely stumped by this! I have written the following code, which doesn't seem to work, presumably because it is run after the table has been displayed? I am very new to this so please be gentle! Regards, AJLX $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages where username ='$username'ORDER BY {$_GET['orderbycol']} $sort"); echo "<table border='1'> <tr width='200'> <th>View</th> // code to display table removed </tr>"; $green_dot = $message_status; $red_dot = $message_status; $green = ""; $red = ""; $bold = ""; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<tr>"; $id = $row['ID']; echo "<td><a href='/view_message.php/?view_message=$id'>View</a></td>"; echo "<td>" .$green . $red."</td>"; echo "<td>" .$bold . $message_status = $row['message_status'] .

(I usually buy them off ebay cheap and resell them). I've already got the login system complete by using one I found online. What I'm looking to do now is make the shop section now where I can import a text document with the giftcard #, and Pin number to have them all show up in a list (but have only the first 6 numbers show up and the rest stared out with "***" until purchased, with the option to add each individual one to the cart (checkboxes beside each one). But I want them to be able to buy them with "credits". Credits being a site currency I'd like to be created. I want users to be able to buy these "credits" with the LibertyReserve API. These credits are to be attached to their login until used up. 1 credit = 1$ LR I notice Libertyreserve has a sample shop script: http://www.libertyreserve.com/en/home/downloads , but it doesnt exactly have the credit features and cart features I stated above, however I'm sure can be somewhat useful in coding what I need. Any help would be greatly appreciated, since I have no idea where to start. I'm sure this is basic to some, and well I'm looking to hire someone if they are confident they can complete this quick, otherwise any free feedback would help so much. Here is the site so far... http://www.eliteids.com/lrstore I have a database table of plants, one of chemicals, one of products, one of illnesses. Each table is connected, for example lets say opium poppies. They contain the chemical morphine. Morphine is used in painkiller products. Its used to treat pain and other illnesses. On the opium poppy page, I want to list all the chemicals found in the poppy. All the products (i.e. opium, laudanum) made from the poppy. All the illnesses which are treated with the poppy. Users need to be able to edit this page, and enter chemicals, products or illnesses that are related to this plant. They also need to be able to edit the info on the page.
Making database relations is a pain in the ass with CakePHP. I don't want to waste any more time so I'm thinking maybe making it as a wordpress plugin is the way to go. How would you go about this? Is there an easier way than wordpress, like a better CMS, or framework? If I use wordpress, should I do all the DB interactions with AJAX to avoid having to interact with the DB through wordpress (this gave me massive trouble in the past since I had my data in an external db)?
Hello, I am making a small CMS and I having some trouble with making a dynamic menu. I am wondering for a few days how I should make this menu system. I have the follow MySQL table: Code: [Select] CREATE TABLE `pages` ( `id` int(4) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `time` varchar(10) DEFAULT NULL, `lastby` varchar(2) DEFAULT NULL, `order_id` varchar(2) DEFAULT NULL, `text` text, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB; Now I would like to have a menu system as following that I make menu's in a menu table with a name and a menu ID and that I could place those pages as parent or as subparent. How could I manage to turn my theory into reality? Ok, first off, I tested my own coded reg system and when I make an error test, the error shows but the user info gets added to the database. How can I stop letting the code add the user to the database when an error occurs. <?php include "lang.php"; ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>PokePals - Registering</title> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.2.min.js" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /></head> <body> <?php include "navbar.php"; ?> <?php // Important stuff goes here include "sql_local.php"; include "ban.php"; // Now for the registration page echo "<div class='panel'>"; if (isset($_POST["submit"])) { // Define the variables here $user = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["user"]); $pass1 = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["pass"]); $pass2 = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["passconf"]); $email = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["email"]); $email2 = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["email2"]); $dpfc = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["dpfc"]); $platinumfc = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["platinumfc"]); $hgssfc = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["hgssfc"]); $otherfc = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["otherfc"]); $favoritepkmn = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["favoritepkmn"]); $aboutme = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["aboutme"]); $hobbies = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["hobbies"]); $favorites = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["favorites"]); $gender = mysql_real_escape_string ($_POST["gender"]); // Now check for some errors // Did he/she fill out the form completely?

Anyhow, I'm using wordpress a lot now cuz it lets me stop reinventing the wheel so much and although I was able to integrate XCrud into WordPress as a plugin, I think the best way to go is just transfer my database tables to WordPress tables and display them as custom post types. My time is really limited right now though, is there a plugin/set of plugins I can use to automate the process? To show you what I mean, heres the XCrud list display of one of the tables:
thats great because it automatically sets up the CRUD thing and lets you add and edit fields to the table, and doesn't heavily box you into their system but I have a table of plants, one for products, one for pharmacology, one for categories which are all related to each other, and some of them are structured in a tree/nested hierarchy structure so long story short, I need to do advanced searches based on these relations and handle these tree structured tables and CakePHP didn't work out, and XCrud has crappy documentation and isn't popular enough to find good info.
So how would you go about transfering this system to WordPress? I'm guessing I need to make custom post types for each table but what I don't yet know is how to transfer the DB tables to WordPress format, how to handle the relationships between each table and how to handle the hierarchical tree structures.

How would I go about creating a login script with an already existing MySQL database that contains my MyBB users? At the moment I am creating a search function for my website. The approach I have in mind is a pseudo-PHP database. To give an example: A HTML form will submit the results to a PHP file. HTML FORM - Colour: Black PHP RESULT PAGE - if ($_POST['color'] == 'Black') {readfile("./products/black/*.html");} HTML FORM - Price: <$50 PHP RESULT PAGE - if ($_POST['Price'] == '<$50') {readfile("./products/less50/*.html");} The problem here is if there is an item that is black and costs less than $50, then its going to be listed twice. There is probably some code I can write to ommit the listing of duplicate entries, but it is probably going to be messy, so I am wondering if its better to use a centralized MySQL database, rather than a pseudo-PHP database? I've never used MySQL and don't know much about it and this is my first real attempt at using PHP. after cloasing connection of database i still got the values form database. Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); /* * To change this template, choose Tools | Templates * and open the template in the editor. */ require_once '../database/db_connecting.php'; $dbname="sahansevena";//set database name $con= setConnections();//make connections use implemented methode in db_connectiong.php mysql_select_db($dbname, $con); //update the time and date of the admin table $update_time="update admin set last_logged_date =CURDATE(), last_log_time=CURTIME() where username='$uname'limit 3,4"; //my admin table contain 5 colums they are id, username,password, last_logged_date, last_log_time $link= mysql_query($update_time); // mysql_select_db($dbname, $link); //$con=mysql_connect('localhost', 'root','ijts'); $result="select * from admin where username='a'"; $result=mysql_query($result); mysql_close($con); //here i just check after closing data baseconnection whether i do get reselts but i do, why? echo "after the cnnection was closed"; if(!$result){ echo "cont fetch data"; }else{ $row= mysql_fetch_array($result); echo "id".$row[0]."usrname".$row[1]."passwped".$row[2]."date".$row[3]."time".$row[4]; } // echo "<html>"; //echo "<table border='1' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='2' align='center'>"; // echo "<thead>"; // echo"<tr>"; // echo "<th>"; // echo ID; // echo"</th>"; // echo" <th>";echo Username; echo"</th>"; // echo"<th>";echo Password; echo"</th>"; // echo"<th>";echo Last_logged_date; echo "</th>"; // echo "<th>";echo Last_logged_time; echo "</th>"; // echo" </tr>"; // echo" </thead>"; // echo" <tbody>"; //while($row= mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_BOTH)){ // echo "<tr>"; // echo "<td>"; // echo $row[0]; // echo "</td>"; // echo "<td>"; // echo $row[1]; // echo "</td>"; // echo "<td>"; // echo $row[2]; // echo "</td>"; // echo "<td>"; // echo $row[3]; // echo "</td>"; // echo "<td>"; // echo $row[4]; // echo "</td>"; // echo "</tr>"; // } // echo" </tbody>"; // echo "</table>"; // echo "</html>"; session_destroy(); session_commit(); echo "session and database are closed but i still get values from doatabase session is destroyed".$_SESSION['admin']; ?> session is destroyed but database connection is not closed. thanks I have a very tricky php problem here. At least for me. On a page that is editing a job entry. I have a database generated group of checkboxes some of which have been checked when the job was entered. So the script has to do two things generate the complete list of checkboxes and check the ones that have already been selected in the job request. The below script is what I've done trying to figure it out. Description of what I'm trying to do: I'm generating the the boxes with a call to my database for the list of checkboxes. Then I'm building an array with all the possible items that could be checked to compare against. Ok here is where I think my first problem is. I need to make a second query to another table "worklog" in the same database. This is where the list of checked items are stored. What is the best way to do this? A second query seems wrong "or at least not efficient" Code: [Select] <div class="text">Job Type (<a class="editlist" href="javascript:editlist('listedit.php?edit=typelist',700,400);">edit list</a>):</div> <div class="field"> <?PHP $connection=mysql_connect ("localhost", "user", "password") or die ("I cannot connect to the database."); $db=mysql_select_db ("database", $connection) or die (mysql_error()); $query = "SELECT type FROM typelist ORDER BY type ASC"; $sql_result = mysql_query($query, $connection) or die (mysql_error()); $i=1; echo '<table valign="top"><tr><td>'; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)) { $type = $row["type"]; if ($i > 1 && $i % 26 == 0) echo '</td><td>'; else if ($i) echo ''; ++$i; $aTypes = array ("Spec Ad Campaign", "100 x 100 Logo", "100 x 35 (Featured Developer/Broker)", "100 x 40 (Featured Lender)", "120 x 180 (Home Page Auto)", "120 x 45 (Half Tile - Jobs)", "120x60 (Section Sponsor)", "125 x 40 (Profile Page logo)", "135 x 31 (Autos)", "135 x 60 (Autos)", "135 x 60 (Logotile - Jobs)", "150 x 40 (Auto Logo)", "160 x 240 (monster tile)", "160 x 400 (Skyscraper)", "160 x 600 (Tower)", "170x30 (Section Sponsor)", "240 x 180 JPG/GIF Auto Video", "240 x 180 size FLV video ", "300 x 250 (Story Ad)", "300 x 600 (Halfpage)", "468 x 60 (Banner Jpg/Gif)", "728 x 90 (Leaderboard)", "95 x 75 (Sweeps Logo) ", "Agent Profile Page", "Contest", "Creative Change", "Employer Profile", "Holiday Shop", "Home of the Week", "HP Half Banner (234 x 60 Static)", "Mobile Ads (320x53 *300x50*216x36*168x28)", "Newsletter", "Peelback", "Pencil Ad", "Print", "Real Deals", "Resize ad campaign", "Roll-Over Skyscraper", "Site Sponsor logo (170x30)", "Splash Page Production", "Travel Deals Update", "Video Ad", "Web Development", "Web Maintenance", "Web Quote (or Design)"); $dbTypes = explode(',',$row['type']); foreach ($aTypes as $type){ if(in_array($aType,$dbTypes)){ echo "<input style='font-size:10px;' name='type[]' type='checkbox' value='$type' CHECKED><span style='color:#000;'>$type</span></input><br/>"; }else { echo "<input style='font-size:10px;' name='type[]' type='checkbox' value='$type'><span style='color:#000;'>$type</span></input><br/>"; } } } echo '</td></tr></table>'; ?> </div> I have a standard form that displays users current data from a mysql database once logged in(code obtained from the internet). Users can then edit their data then submit it to page called editform.php that does the update. All works well except that the page does not display the updated info. Users have to first logout and login again to see the updated info. even refreshing the page does not show the new info. Please tell me where the problem is as i am new to php.
my form page test.php
<?PHP
require_once("./include/membersite_config.php");
if(!$fgmembersite->CheckLogin())
{
$fgmembersite->RedirectToURL("login.php");
exit;
}
?>

Hi guys, I was just wondering if anyone could help me. I've got a My_SQL database containing articles, a summary for the article and a date. I have a basic CMS system set-up, but I want to create a script that when users sign up to a mail list it forwards the summary and dates of the articles database. If that makes sense? But I only want it to forward the most recent 5 rows. I'm pretty new to PHP and I've been mostly following tutorials thus far, but this is quite specific. Thanks in advance! hello I want query from one table and insert in another table on another domain . each database on one domain name. for example http://www.site.com $con1 and http://www.site1.com $con. can anyone help me? my code is : <?php $dbuser1 = "insert in this database"; $dbpass1 = "insert in this database"; $dbhost1 = "localhost"; $dbname1 = "insert in this database"; // Connecting, selecting database $con1 = mysql_connect($dbhost1, $dbuser1, $dbpass1) or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($dbname1) or die('Could not select database'); $dbuser = "query from this database"; $dbpass = "query from this database"; $dbhost = "localhost"; $dbname = "query from this database"; // Connecting, selecting database $con = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($dbname) or die('Could not select database'); //query from database $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `second_content` WHERE CHANGED =0 limit 0,1"); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($query)){ $result=$row[0]; $text=$row[1]."</br>Size:(".$row[4].")"; $alias=$row[2]; $link = '<a target="_blank" href='.$row[3].'>Download</a>'; echo $result; } //insert into database mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'", $con1); $query3= " INSERT INTO `jos_content` (`id`, `title`, `alias`, `) VALUES (NULL, '".$result."', '".$alias."', '')"; if (!mysql_query($query3,$con1)) { die('Error: text add' . mysql_error()); } mysql_close($con); mysql_close($con1); ?> the second database found on the cloud
i try to get JSON data but how to insert and update them to another online database with the same table my php script to return json data <?php include_once('db.php'); $users = array(); $users_data = $db -> prepare('SELECT id, username FROM users'); $users_data -> execute(); while($fetched = $users_data->fetch()) { $users[$fetchedt['id']] = array ( 'id' => $fetched['id'], 'username' => $fetched['name'] ); } echo json_encode($leaders);

But I must wonder, if doing this on a database would be faster. Would it be? I mean the example adobe shows I'm only using 19 pictures, but if I ever reach say 1000 pictures, would the php file be too big? Should I just make a database now or it doesn't matter? Also, the code above, which I took from a phpfreak member, has the pagination not working. Anyone care to do a diagnosis? Thanks! Hello everyone, I have put together a HTML form in which data is being collected, then verified with a PHP script before being posted into a SQL database. Is there anyway I can auto assign a unique ID to a database entry other than the default auto increment ID field? I want to be able to assign random ID numbers to tickets for an event and was hoping that something could be achieved in SQL..? Many thanks, BB2011 Hi there, *little heads up: English isn't my native language, so excuse me for any mistakes in spelling etc.* I've got a register/login script with activation mail, I secure my pages with this bit of code: Code: [Select] } if (!$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["ingelogd"]) { header("Location: login.php"); } Because if someone logs in, the session is made: Code: [Select] // bekijk of de gegevens juist zijn if (mysql_num_rows($res) >= 1) { // registreer sessie (of cookie) $ingelogd = mysql_result($res, 0); session_register(ingelogd); // setcookie("ingelogd", "$ingelogd", time() + 1 * 86400); echo "<p style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: #000000;\"> U bent succesvol ingelogd.</p>"; echo "<p style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: #000000;\"> Klik hier om <a href=\"home.php\">verder</a> te gaan.</p>"; } My question: When someone registered, they entered their 'real' name, which is then placed into the database in the same row as the username, password etc. I would like to state on the homepage which is secured 'Welcome 'Name'!' I do I get this 'Name' value out of the database and into my page? Thanks in advance! Sander Not sure if I can post this here, or if I should go to a mySQL forum but... I'm trying to keep track of my user's "score". Each time they do a certain thing they get a preset amount of points, depending on what they did. The way I see it would be having a table that is joined to the user's ID, and have a column for each task. Then when they do a task the number in that column will go up. Then I will multiply that number by amount the task is worth. I can't just adjust there score because they need to be able to see what they did. So I hope that made sense. And if you know a better way to deal with this please let me know! |
