Hi, I am trying to write an SQL to XML converter, so so far I have all the records inputted into the db tables, and now I want to append a child, but I don't know how to compare current row's field value with the next row below it, specifically I want to check if a current row is parent of the next row. I have already got the XML to SQL function working (some bugs but for the most part it's working)

So for eg:
<?php
$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM edge");
while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($query) ) {
     if($row['target'] is parent of the next row),  then
                append the next row as child of current row
}

?>

Table edge is one of the tables that hold target node/source(aka: parent) nodes.

Any help much appreciated!

Hi!
I have a table called "Categories"

Here is the structu
id | Categories               |  ParentCategories
1  | Rings                        | Parent Category
2  | Pendants                  | Parent Category
3  | Ladies Rings             | Rings
4  | Ladies Pendants       | Rings
5  | Gents Rings              | Gents
6  | Necklaces                 | Parent Category

But Necklaces is one of those who is not going to have any subcategories or you can say, it is going to be a category by itself.

So how can I construct a php statement to get data out of MySQL to determine that Necklaces is a Category which does not have subcategories.

Please help !

Thank you !

I know the forum is supposed to be used to help with any code I have come up with but here's to taking a shot anyway:

I am in need of creating a php script that will allow me to input two different XML files and upon pressing "go" will compare these two files and save only the differences to a new xml file.

Thing is, I have no idea where to start. Are there any php functions that exist that I can use to do this? If not, cn someone help me create one? Would this be better handled in javascript? If so, how can I do so using a method similar to the above?

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

I run an article directory. I was wondering how I could check an article that is currently pending review against published articles in our database. What I am looking to do is to place the content of the body in the pending article into a variable. That much is easy and I know how to do that. Then I would like to use that variable to compare against other content in our database and have it output a percentage of how close it is to any other article already published in our database. Any direction our guidance with this would be so greatly appreciated.   


Thanks!

Hi everyone!
I've been looking for a solution, but i just can't find it anywhere...

Ok, so the problem is:
i have a database which looks something like this:

user_id product_id score
14 . 235 . 79
23 . 235 . 32
53 . 665 . 21
14 . 235 . 90
5 . 675 . 45


This is step-by-step of what i need to do:

1. Select user - user_id =343

2. For user_id =343 select all products that he gave score to:
product_id = 43 - score = 99
product_id = 12 - score = 56
product_id = 68 - score = 32
product_id = 124 - score = 67

3. Find all users that voted for the same products e.g.:
for product_id = 43:
user_id = 125 voted 93 points,
user_id = 23 voted 56 points.


4. Calculate the difference between the score of user, so:
for product_id = 43:
user_id = 125 voted 93 points (99 - 93 =6 points of diff.)
user_id = 23 voted 56 points (99 - 56 =43 points of diff.)
return the results....


That's basically what i need to do. I still don't know the number of the users, or product, but it doesn't really matter - i just need to make it work.
Ok, hope someone can help!

I need to compare several arrays...to narrow down a bunch of mysql selects.

I can't figure out which of the array_diff, array_unique, array_merge options there are.

I need to get an array of umpires (baseball), then compare that to the array of umpires that can work a given level, then compare that to the array of umpires that can work at that school, and finally compare that to the array of umpires who have asked for the day off.

In the code below, all of the selects work...the echo's that are commented out printed out what I expected them to.

I'm having a problem with the array comparisons at the end of this code:

Code: [Select]
<?php
//connect to database
$dbc = mysql_pconnect($host, $username, $password);  
mysql_select_db($db,$dbc);

$rs = mysql_query($sql,$dbc);  
 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($rs))
            {
              $game_array = $row['sport'];
      $home_team_array = $row['home'];
  $game_day_array = $row['day'];
}

            {
                        $name_array[] = $row['ump_id'];
//  echo "<br /><br />All Ump ID's Array = "; 
//  foreach($name_array as $name_array_final) {
//                         echo $name_array_final . "<br />";
//                         }
            }


//get bad schools list
$sql = "SELECT ump_id FROM bad_school WHERE '$_SESSION[association_id]' = `association_id` AND `school` = '$home_team_array' and `sport` = '$game_array'";

 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($rs))
            {
                        $bad_school_array[] = $row['ump_id'];
//  echo "<br /><br />Bad School Array = "; 
//  foreach($bad_school_array as $bad_school_array_final) {

//  foreach($official_level_array as $official_level_array_final) {
//                         echo $official_level_array_final . ",&nbsp;";
//                         }

            }

//get vacation list
$sql = "SELECT ump_id FROM days_off WHERE '$_SESSION[association_id]' = `association_id` AND `day` = '$game_day_array'"; 
$rs = mysql_query($sql,$dbc);

//  echo "<br /><br />Officials that are on vacation this day = "; 
//  foreach($days_off_array as $days_off_array_final) {

//                         }
            }



//$first_step = array_merge($official_level_array, $name_array);
$first_step = array_merge($official_level_array, $name_array);
$first_step_part_2=array_unique($first_step); 

//$second_step = array_merge($bad_school_array, $first_step);
$second_step = array_merge($bad_school_array, $first_step_part_2);
$second_step_part_2=array_unique($second_step); 

//$third_step = array_merge($days_off_array, $second_step);
$third_step = array_merge($days_off_array, $second_step_part_2);
$third_step_part_2=array_unique($third_step); 

echo "These umpires are available for this game:<br />";
foreach ($third_step as $iamavailable) {
echo "$iamavailable<br />";

}

?>

This prints out:

Quote

2
1
2
4
5
6
10
14
15
3
7
8
9
11
12
13
16
17



It should only print out 4, 5, 6, 10, 14, 15.

What I want to do is:  compare $official_level_array and $name_array...only keep those that are in $official_level_array.

Then, compare that result with $bad_school_array...removing those in the $bad_school_array...and keeping the ones that are left.

Then, compare that result, with $days_off_array...removing those in the $days_off_array...and keeping the ones that are left.

Print out what's left...


Where am I going wrong?

I have this code that compares date times but im not sure if its correct.

if("2008-08-10 00:00:00.0" > strtotime("now")) {
        echo "here";
    }


The code echo's here, but it shouldn't because the time is less than the current time. Any ideas?

Hi Everyone,

I am working on developing a blog/comment system for my website. I have 3 tables, the first a blog post table with a row/primary key of id that is auto incremented as each new article is created via a form. The second table is a comments table with a row of article_id and the third table is a category table with an article_id row as well.

From the main blog page I have links that will take users to each individual blog post using $_GET like so:

Code: [Select]
http://www.mydomain.com/blog/article/?id={$row['id']}
From here I would like to be able to display the comment for that particular article below the article and also have a sidebar with links to blog categories which will then display each post according to whether they are in that category or not.

My question is two-fold:

First, what is the best way to pull the id field from the blog/post table, form, or url and enter it into the article_id rows of the second two tables? Should I use a hidden field, the URL id via $_GET, using a join, or what?

Secondly:

What is the best way to compare and display those rows so that the appropriate comments are being shown for the correct article, etc.

This is my first time doing this so I am grateful for any help or suggestions.

Thanks,

kaiman

Best method to for the following?
Code: [Select]
// The following $str1 and $str2 should say they are identical
$str1 = "abcDEF";
$str2 = "EcFabD";

// The following $str1 and $str2 should say they are NOT identical because of the "a" "A" case difference.
$str1 = "abcDEF";
$str2 = "EcFAbD";

I'm comparing bitvector strings.  "ABC" is different than "abc".   "abc" is the same as "cba".

What's the best php function or method I should use?

Thank you.

Hello dear friends,

okay here is the story

i've 2 incoming entries

Code: [Select]
$name = "Manal Nor";
$comment = "Hello lovely world";
and i've stored into database table some bad words to be banned

my_table (id,word)


My objective
Is to compare if $name and/or $comment have any of the banned words in my_table


I can apply for $name only , i mean i can compare $name and know if it have any banned words or not using the following code

Code: [Select]
$name = "Manal Nor"; // Example .. no bad words

$sql    = "SELECT * FROM my_table";
$result = mysql_query($sql);

$nameArray = explode(" ", $name);
$countname = count($nameArray);
$checkname = 0;

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

for ($i == 0; $i < $countname; $i++) {

if (strcasecmp($nameArray[$i], $row['word'])) {
$checkname = 1;
}

}

}

if ($checkname == 1) {
echo "banned";
exit;
}else {
echo "passed";
}
it works perfect 

but now the question how to apply it like cheese burger i mean for both $name and $comment so that i can use

  any help please

I am able to run and display two queries I need for my program but having issues comparing the two result sets. If they are identical, means both tables are also identical (the query is for the table's schemas in MS-SQL)

Here's the relevant part ...

Code: [Select]
//Variables


$table_name=$_POST['table_name'];


// Connect via Windows authentication
$server = 'win1\i01';

//Connection info for PRO
$connectionInfoPRO = array(

'Database' => 'adventureworks',
'CharacterSet' => 'UTF-8'
);
$dbPRO = sqlsrv_connect($server, $connectionInfoPRO);
if ($dbPRO === false) {
    exitWithSQLError('Database connection to PRO failed');
}


//Connection info for ITG
$connectionInfoITG = array(

'Database' => 'adventureworksCOPY',
'CharacterSet' => 'UTF-8'
);
$dbITG = sqlsrv_connect($server, $connectionInfoITG);
if ($dbITG === false) {
    exitWithSQLError('Database connection to ITG failed');
}



/* Set up and execute the query. */

$query1 = "SELECT COLUMN_NAME, DATA_TYPE, ORDINAL_POSITION, COLUMN_DEFAULT, CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH, IS_NULLABLE
  FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
  WHERE TABLE_NAME='$table_name'";
 
// Run PRO query

$qresult1 = sqlsrv_query($dbPRO, $query1);
if ($qresult1 === false) {
    exitWithSQLError('Query of product data failed.');
}

echo '<tr><th>NAME</th><th>TYPE</th><th>POSITION</th><th>DEFAULT</th><th>LENGHT</th><th>IS NULLABLE</th></tr>';

// Retrieve individual rows from the result
while ($row1 = sqlsrv_fetch_array($qresult1)) {

    echo '<tr><td>', htmlspecialchars($row1['COLUMN_NAME']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row1['DATA_TYPE']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row1['ORDINAL_POSITION']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row1['COLUMN_DEFAULT']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row1['CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH']),
  '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row1['IS_NULLABLE']),
         "</td></tr>\n";
}


// null == no further rows, false == error
if ($row1 === false) {
    exitWithSQLError('Retrieving schema failed.');
}



//Run ITG query

$query2 = "SELECT COLUMN_NAME, DATA_TYPE, ORDINAL_POSITION, COLUMN_DEFAULT, CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH, IS_NULLABLE
  FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
  WHERE TABLE_NAME='$table_name'";



$qresult2 = sqlsrv_query($dbITG, $query2);
if ($qresult2 === false) {
    exitWithSQLError('Query of product data failed.');
}


echo '<tr><th>NAME</th><th>TYPE</th><th>POSITION</th><th>DEFAULT</th><th>LENGHT</th><th>IS NULLABLE</th></tr>';

// Retrieve individual rows from the result
while ($row2 = sqlsrv_fetch_array($qresult2)) {
    echo '<tr><td>', htmlspecialchars($row2['COLUMN_NAME']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row2['DATA_TYPE']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row2['ORDINAL_POSITION']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row2['COLUMN_DEFAULT']),
         '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row2['CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH']),
  '</td><td>', htmlspecialchars($row2['IS_NULLABLE']),
         "</td></tr>\n";
}


// null == no further rows, false == error
if ($row2 === false) {
    exitWithSQLError('Retrieving schema failed.');
}


How can I compare $row1 and $row2 here (the query results for each one) and validate if they both have same results, each and all columns.

Any help is highly appreciated!

I typically only use the first two solutions.  Is there anything wrong with the third?  Is there any more streamlined way to do it?

function f1($x){return $x*1;}
function f2($x){return $x*1;}

$x=2;$y=1;

if(f1($x)>f2($y)){echo(f2($y)."\n");}

// or

$f2_y=f2($y);
if(f1($x)>$f2_y){echo($f2_y."\n");}

// or

if(f1($x)>$f2_y=f2($y)){echo($f2_y."\n");}
