I don't necessarily need code, but an idea of how to make it work, so any ideas are welcome. The table: Column Descriptions: id - The unique id label - The text to display link - The link to be used relation - I cannot remember why I wanted that... just disregard it parent - The parent item's id (0 for no parent) sort - A sort number for the item (ascending) active - 0 for false, 1 for true (not implemented yet, will add a WHERE `active` = 1 into the sql later) depth - How many parent items there are Now, here's what it has to do (the class): Grab items from the database (sorted by depth, parent, and sort) Place the children in a child array of the parents (or however it can be sorted) Implode the array and turn it into an html menu with the below structure Menu HTML Structure Code: [Select] <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><h2>Level 1 A</h2> <ul> <li><a href="?r=level2/a">Level 2 A</a> <ul> <li><a href="?r=level3/a">Level 3 A</a></li> <li><a href="?r=level3/b">Level 3 B</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="?r=level1/b"><h2>Level 1 B</h2></a></li> </ul> </div> And here is the code I have so far, but I can't figure out how to get the children into the parent array, or at least sort it so that I can achieve the above HTML structure. Thank you in advance for your help, and as I said above, I don't necessarily need code, but an idea of how to make it work, so any ideas are welcome. I am having a lot of trouble with this code, and I have no clue how to fix it. Right now, I have a GUI for a fictitious car dealership that has 5 populated drop down menus called Make, Model, Year, Color, and Mileage. What I want the code to do is read the selections made by the user with the drop down menus once the user hits the submit button and then filter the tables that I have in a mysql database to meets the choice requirements of the user. The code will bring up the GUI, but once I hit the submit button, I get the following errors Please if anyone can help me that would be fantastic. I really have no clue In an .html, before : <!-- BEGIN myquery --> I need to stop output and check the content of "myquery" Is there a command for that ? Thank You. Hello all. I am using a premade login script which has some very powerful function built in, the one I am looking at using is as follows:
/** * query - Performs the given query on the database and * returns the result, which may be false, true or a * resource identifier. */ function query($query){ return mysqli_query( $this->connection, $query); }The issue is, displaying the results. I call is via the following code: $database->query('SELECT LastName, Firstname FROM Patrons WHERE LastName = "Delude"');But I have no idea how to display it. I have attempted to echo it out, but I get the following error in the logs: PHP Catchable fatal error: Object of class mysqli_result could not be converted to string Hi all !,
I am stuck on the following piece of code which does not give an error nor does it give a result. ( i.e. it gives 0 num_rows which should be > 1).
If, however, I execute the query in phpmyadmin by simply substituting the values of $pp,$ll and $room_no in the query it gives the correct result.
Please can someone tell me what I may be doing wrong here. Thanks !

I have this code that suppose to divide the query result 3 columns in a row. Like this : Shoes Hats Jeans Shorts Shirts Belts But for some reason this one doesn't work. It gave me everything in a single row. Like this: Shoes Hats jeans Shorts Shirts Belts. I noticed that before I put this two 2 lines of code, it's working fine. It didn't give me any error messages or anythings. Can someone point me out what did I did wrong? This is two lines I put in: Code: [Select] $vuong_query = tep_db_query("select categories_id from " .

I am new to this forum and not much of a php expert. I hope you can assist me.
My problem is as follows:
I have a column consisting of several values (in this case: sceience, art, humanistics and music)
I would like to use the following mysqli query in order to count the appearances of each value in this column:
$query = "SELECT SUM (IF(department = 'science', 1, 0)) AS science, SUM(IF(department = 'art', 1, 0))-> AS art FROM new2"
I have tried lots of ways to loop the results but couldn't get the it working.
Can anyone suggest any idea?
Thanks

Hello, So I have a content management site set up, but I'm stuck on one part. I have a query. Code: [Select] Select `email` FROM author WHERE author.id IN(SELECT authorid FROM job WHERE id = '$_POST[id]') I'm a beginner in PHP and SQL. Basically I need the query to run, it will come out with one result and I need that to be where the email is sent to. This is the existing code I have for sending out the email $subject = " Job Application Confirmation"; $message = "Hello $_POST[name] , \r\rYou, or someone using your email address, has applied for the job: $text Using the Resource Locator at Prahan.com.

It used to work, I have a sports league database (MsSql) and one of the tables contains team Captain's first name, last name, etc.. To create a unique but simple login, the query searches for the captain's first initial of their first name + lastname + league. However since there is the remote possibility of two similar usernames (i.e. David Smith) if the last name is found, the query adds an integer to the end of the last name. So the result would look like this: DSmithM4A At the moment, my database is completely blank. However what is happening when I run the query below is I get: DSmith1M4A Can someone figure out why this code is not working correctly? If there is not more than one "Smith" no integer is supposed to be returned. There is something in the "Captain Count" that I think is not working correctly. Code: [Select] /* * Gather captian information */ $strCaptainFirstInitial = substr($arrPost['cpt_first'],0,1); $strCaptainLastName = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z]/","",$arrPost['cpt_last']); $strCaptainName = strtolower($strCaptainFirstInitial.$strCaptainLastName); $sqlCaptainSearch = sprintf ( $strCaptainSearch, $strCaptainName ); $resCaptainSearch = mssql_query($sqlCaptainSearch,$conDB); /* * Create unique captain login and Password */ $strCaptainCount = (mssql_num_rows($resCaptainSearch) > 0) ? mssql_num_rows($resCaptainSearch) : "" ; $strLeagueTypeInitial = substr($arrLeagueSearch['type'],0,1); $strCaptainLogin = $strCaptainName . $strCaptainCount . $strLeagueTypeInitial . $arrLeagueSearch['size'] . $arrLeagueSearch['division']; Hi, I have attached sql script for table structure and sample data.
