Each time a user submit's a post on my forum I will make it +1 the .txt file on my main server directory called test.txt, then I can just call that on my main forum index to show the amount of total posts our board has, instead of using mysql queries to sum all of it from the tables... good idea? or am i retarded? I have a class "Login" that handles login, registration, checking if someone's logged in and authorization stuff. I would prefer to be able to instantiate this just once per session and then reuse that. however, I don't know if there's drawbacks to storing this object in the session. For example, will this lead to too much memory usage of the session object? Is it slow to keep retrieving an object from session? Would it be faster and better on the server to just re-instantiate and then destroy the object every page request?

Some are empty, the ones i want have various id numbers in them. Is there a way to get just the numbers where there is an id number present? Hey, having an odd issue, looking to show players whos within 25 ranks of them lower and higher, i'm unsure as to why the following code doesn't actually do it... would anyone care to explain... Code: [Select] <?php $score = $playerdata['score']; $sql = "SELECT * FROM `players` WHERE '$score' BETWEEN 25 AND 75 ORDER BY `score` DESC"; $query = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error()); $i=0; while($players = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { $i++; ?> I'm trying to figure out how to implement SELECT COUNT into a php generated list. My script lists all the users in one table $data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM YBK_Login") or die(mysql_error()); while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $data )) { Print "<tr>"; Print "<td>".$info['UID'] . " </td>"; Print "<td>"."#"."</td>"; Print "<td>".$info['ID'] . "</td> "; Print "<td>".$info['Allowed'] . "</td> "; Print "<td>".$info['pass'] . " </td>"; Print "<td>".$info['HR'] . " </td>"; } ?> And I want to use the count to count the number of entries each user has in a diffrent table. Like pull the $info['ID'] and check against posts in YBK_Ads with the column name UID Hello there, Having a nightmare here. It feels like what I need to do is really easy but I just can't get it to work. I have a table called "groups2" that holds a unique id and the name of an activity. I already have a query that finds the users selected groups using a while loop but I also want to show how many other members are in that group by counting the number of times the activity comes up or the id comes up. I don't know whether I need 2 while loops nested or what but I get the error Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource on line 32 which is highlighted. Can anyone help. I am no expert at php and still learning so some advice or example code would be great. $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM groups2 WHERE L_ID = ". $_SESSION['member_ID'] .";"); $data = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT('name') AS num FROM groups2 WHERE name = " . $row['name'] . ""); $count = mysql_fetch_assoc($data); $numbers = $count['num']; while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ) { echo("<tr> <td><font face='Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif' size='3'><strong>" . $row["name"] . "</strong></font></td> </tr><tr> <td><font face='Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif' size='1' color='#0000FF'><strong>Members (" . $numbers . ")</strong></font></td> </tr><tr> <td><hr width=95%><br></td> </tr>"); } hi, I want to count the total number of multiple select that user has selected instead of getting the value the user has selected How should I go about doing the counting part? Code: [Select] <form action="1.php" method="post"> <select name="test[]" multiple="multiple"> <option value="one">one</option> <option value="two">two</option> <option value="three">three</option> <option value="four">four</option> <option value="five">five</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Send" /> </form> <?php $test=$_POST['test']; if ($test){ foreach ($test as $t){echo 'You selected ',$t,'<br />';} } ?> Hello there,
This is the script i use right know, and i want it to become easier because i have so much categories that i want to show and it will take days to write all those categories.
<?php include 'extern/connect-.php'; //***************************************************************************** // categEGORY A //***************************************************************************** $result = mysql_query("select (select count(1) FROM videos WHERE title LIKE '%Accident%') as Accident , (select count(1) FROM videos WHERE title LIKE '%Acrobatic%') as Acrobatic, (select count(1) FROM videos WHERE title LIKE '%Adorable%') as Adorable , (select count(1) FROM videos WHERE title LIKE '%Adventure%') as Adventure, "); $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); foreach($row as $title => $total) { echo ' <div id="categ"> <div class="a"> <a href="search.php?search='. $title . '&submit= ">'. $title.' '. $total .'</a></div></div>'; } ?>So what i was thinking is if it is possible to make .txt file and to select from it like this here below, or if something else could help make the categories faster to write and get the best performance to load the webpage... some_file.txt Accident Acrobatic Adorable Adventure <?php include 'extern/connect-.php'; $something ='some_file.txt'; //***************************************************************************** // categEGORY A //***************************************************************************** $result = mysql_query("select (select count(1) FROM videos WHERE $something ......? , echo 'categories'; ?>Any help is Appreciated Thanks in Advance $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `friend_system` WHERE `friend_system_accepter` = '$myusername' "); echo mysql_num_rows($result);This displays the total rows in the table. $result = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(friend_system_accepter) FROM `friend_system` WHERE `friend_system_accepter` = '$myusername' "); echo mysql_num_rows($result);This displays '1', which is incorrect. I want to echo out the number of rows where 'friend_system_accepter' = $myusername Thanks The code below is part of some validation code that I have, it is supposed to count the number of entries in the table 'test_selections' where 'userid' equals the user that is logged in and where the 'transfer_in' date is a date within the current month. I am getting an error saying "Error running query Unknown column '10' in 'where clause' ". Does anybody know why this could be? I am hoping that it is something to do with the snippet of code below so I don't need to post the whole lot!! Any help would be much appreciated. Code: [Select] $current_month = date("m"); $query = "SELECT COUNT(`userid`) as `transfers_count` FROM `test_selections` WHERE `userid` = '{$_SESSION['userid']}' AND Month(`transfer_in`) = `$current_month` GROUP BY `userid`"; This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=333523.0 This topic has been moved to Application Design. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=347419.0 This topic has been moved to Other Programming Languages. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=347880.0 This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=320875.0 Hi First of all, I know VERY little about PHP, The effort below is a wile guess that has gone wrong.
