PHP - Convert String Into Integer

//$value1 = $_POST['game'];

$value1 = "game7h";

if (strpos($value1, 'a')) {
$team = 'a';
}elseif (strpos($value1, 'h')) {
$team = 'h';
}      
if (strpos($value1, '7')) {
$num = '7';
} elseif (strpos($value1, '8')) {
$num = '8';
} elseif (strpos($value1, '9')) {
$num = '9';
}

$gm7hodds = $games[41]["BP"];
$gm7aodds = $games[40]["BP"];

$gm8hodds = $games[47]["BP"];
$gm8aodds = $games[46]["BP"];

$gm9hodds = $games[53]["BP"];
$gm9aodds = $games[52]["BP"];


/* 
$getratio = $num + $team;

echo $getratio;

Team is not a math operation so I'll finesse that later.

*/


$findratio = 'gm' . $num . 'h' . 'odds';
echo $findratio;

gm7hodds

How would I add the $ to it and return its array value $gm7hodds?

Solved whoops ->

echo eval('return $'. $findratio. ';');

I'm trying to convert those array number to string, add implode() to make it happen, but seem PHP didn't recognize variable in $input. Like this implode("Section: ", $input) or (Section: ", $srs). Can you help me?

Thanks,

Gary

Hi everybody,

I need some help about how to convert string to array name. I have the following function which pass $_REQUEST type as parameter. It is not working because I don't know how to convert $method to $_GET or $_POST in a proper way. Do anybody know how?

Code: [Select]
function validateIfFilled($method, $fields)
{ 
    $exploded=explode(",",$fields);   
    foreach($exploded as $field){                             
        if(empty($method[trim($field)])){         
          return false;     
        }
    }
    return true;
};

if(!validateIfFilled('$_GET', "email, password, address"))
...
Thank you!

Hi,

Sorry, me again!

Ok, so i've got my url:
http://www.mydomain.com/?ec3_after=2010-08-01&ec3_before=2010-08-07

I've then got the following code to get the values:

$afterDateParts = split("-", $_GET['ec3_after']); 
$after = $afterDateParts[2] . " " . $afterDateParts[1] . " " . $afterDateParts[0]; 
echo $after; 

which returns:
01 08 2010 (correct for this demo)

I've then got this to convert the above into a nicer format:

$convertMe = strtotime($after);
echo date('d-M-Y', $convertMe);

But it always returns:
01 Jan 1970

For the love of god, I cannot work out why. Is it really not that simple? 

Please someone put me out my misery. I'm loosing hair by the minute! Lol

TIA

I have ip_addresses stored in the database as unsigned integers. I want to display them in standard xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format in a table. In my code, I tried the following:

<?php
while ($row = $query->fetch()) 
{
    $address = inet_ntoa($row['IP_ADDRESS']);  //Throws error here
    echo "<tr>";
//    echo "<td>" . $row['IP_ADDRESS'] ."</td>";
    echo "<td>" . $row['$address'] ."</td>";
    echo "<td>" . $row['FILENAME'] ."</td>";
    echo "<td>" . $row['country'] . "</td>";
    echo "<td>" . $row['area'] . "</td>";
    echo "<td>" . $row['city'] . "</td>";
    echo "</tr>";
}
?>

It throws the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'inet_ntoa' (T_STRING) in /home/larry/web/test/public_html/report1.php on line 205

How do I do the conversion so I can display the ip_address?

Thanks in advance,

Larry

Hi friends...
I have two variables ($date and $time). I concat these two strings and make a new variable called "$datetime". Now in above code I want to insert it into table but I got the following error. Code: [Select]
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message '<b>Source:</b> Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server<br/><b>Description:</b> Conversion failed when converting datetime from character string.' in C:\wamp\www\FMS\fms.php:44 Stack trace: #0 C:\wamp\www\FMS\fms.php(44): com->execute('insert into A00...') #1 {main} thrown in C:\wamp\www\FMS\fms.php on line 44
In my database, data type of column in which I want to insert is Date time stamp though I have string type ($datetime) variable.
I think I have to convert this $datetime variable string to "DateTime type first but don't have any idea about it.
Please help??/
Thanks in advance....

I'm hitting a SQL Server db and every table has a ts (timestamp) field that is a binary datatype - 8 bytes. Is there a way to "read" the binary and output it as a string?

How can i convert an array of results to a single comma separated string so that I can run it through an SQL query?

Hello, i have the code below and i need to have all results in a variable as a string, inside the loop they are displayed how i want but outside will echo the last result.  Thank You.
Code: [Select]
foreach($_POST as $key=>$value){
if (is_numeric($value)) {
$valoare = "$value,";

}
}
echo $valoare;

Well the topic may not sound very explicit. So I'll do my best to explain it here. I have a pull down menu as part of a form, which contains the months of the year. I'm trying to store the value of this form entry using the $_POST['month'] variable into a database but first, I need to convert the month values into their corresponding integer values( that is 1 for January, 2 for February etc), in order to easily do date calculations later down the road. Any ideas about how to do this? It may be helpful to include the code for the pull down menu.
Code: [Select]
<p><tab> Date of Birth: <?php //Make the month pull down menu.
//Array to store months. 
$months = array (1 => 'January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December'); 
print '<select name= "month">';
foreach ($months as $key => $value) {
    print "\n<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>";
}
print '</select>'; ?> </tab>
 

<tab>  <?php //Make the day pull down menu
print '<select name= "day">';
for ($day = 1; $day <= 31; $day++) {
    print "\n<option value=\"$day\">$day</option>";
}
print '</select>'; ?> </tab>

<tab><?php //Make the year pull down menu 
print '<select name= "year">';
$start_year = date('Y');
for ($y = ($start_year - 18); $y >= 1900; $y--) {
    print "\n<option value=\"$y\">$y</option>";
}
print '</select>'; ?> </tab> </p>

Hello All,

Hi,

I am trying to convert a String date into numeric date using PHP function's, but haven't found such function.
Had a look at date(), strtotime(), getdate();

e.g. Apr 1 2011  ->    04-01-2011

Could someone please shed some light on this?

Regards,
Abhishek
