PHP - Taking A Delimited List And Putting It Into An Array
Hi all!
Ok I am trying to put a delimited list like so , EX. item qty, item name, item price | item qty, item name, item price | item qty, item name, item price | etc. into an array so I can access it like this - $product[0] = qty, $product[1] = name, etc. My code just isnt working. This is what I have so far. $prod = array(); //breaking products text down for display $products1 = explode("|", $products); $num_prod1 = count($products1); $count = 0; foreach($products1 as $p) { $prod[] = $p; $products2 = explode(",", $p); foreach($products2 as $p2) { $prod[$count] = $prod[$count][$p2]; } $count++; } Similar Tutorialsok .. so I have this object and I want to make a tab delimited text file from it. here's what I have so far. function create_tab_file_from_object($the_object) { $string = ''; foreach($the_object as $val) { $string .= $val.'\t'; } //drop last tab $string = substr($string,0,-2); filename = 'test_file_pickup.txt'; $fp = fopen('/filepath/'.$filename,'w'); fwrite($fp,$string); fclose($fp); } when i run this i get a text file that looks something like this field1\tfield2\tfield3\t ... and so on. How do I get php to make an actual tab delimited file I can open in notepad or excel or whatever.. Thanks in advance, C I am trying to give role based access here. I want to display the pages which user has access in checkbox format. Here is my code $sql = "SELECT p.page_id AS pid, p.page, p.href, ra.pages AS rpage FROM pages p INNER JOIN role_access ra WHERE p.page_id IN (ra.page) AND ra.role=1"; $query = mysqli_query($con, $sql) or die(mysqli_error($con)); $checked_arr = array(); while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($query)) { $checked_arr = explode(",",$row['rpage']); foreach ($checked_arr as $page) { echo "<br/><input type='checkbox' name=\"pages[]\" value='$page' />$page<br>"; } My tables are like this ROLE CREATE TABLE `role` ( `rid` int(5) NOT NULL, `role_name` varchar(50) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; INSERT INTO `role` (`rid`, `role_name`) VALUES (1, 'Admin'), (2, 'Others'); ALTER TABLE `role` ADD PRIMARY KEY (`rid`); ROLE-ACCESS CREATE TABLE `role_access` ( `id` int(10) NOT NULL, `page` varchar(160) NOT NULL, `role` int(7) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; INSERT INTO `role_access` (`id`, `page`, `role`) VALUES (1, '1,2,3,4,5', 1), (2, '2,4,5', 2); ALTER TABLE `role_access` ADD PRIMARY KEY (`id`); PAGES CREATE TABLE `pages` ( `page_id` int(11) NOT NULL, `code` varchar(10) NOT NULL, `page` varchar(100) NOT NULL, `href` varchar(255) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; INSERT INTO `pages` (`page_id`, `code`, `page`, `href`) VALUES (1, 'Patient', 'Registration', '/patient_registration.php'), (2, 'Patient', 'List', '/patient_list.php'), (3, 'Patient', 'Edit', '/edit_patient.php'), (4, 'Patient', 'Export', '/export_patient.php'), (5, 'Patient', 'MRD', '/patient_MRD.php'); ALTER TABLE `pages` ADD PRIMARY KEY (`page_id`);
In above query i get result like this
But required result is
if i change checkbox display like while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($query)) { $checked_arr = explode(",",$row['rpage']); $pname = $row['page']; foreach ($checked_arr as $page) { echo "<br/><input type='checkbox' name=\"pages[]\" value='$page' />$pname<br>"; } } i get result
How to get the names for that file.

For everything else that works perfect as it stores the data and when needed I can use the following as an example: $dateofbirth = unserialize($row['dateofbirth']); $dobday = $dateofbirth[0]; $dobmonth = $dateofbirth[1]; $dobyear = $dateofbirth[2]; Date of birth is stored as dd,mm,yyyy and for everything else I can call it fine. My issue is now that i'm trying to use fputcsv to create a csv file using the following: $result = mysqli_query($con, 'SELECT u.user_id, b.dateofbirth FROM Users u INNER JOIN Basic b USING (user_id) ORDER BY user_id DESC'); $fp = fopen('latest.csv', 'w'); fputcsv($fp, array('User ID', 'DOB' )); The CSV generates, but for the date of birth column in the csv it outputs as "a:3:{i:0;s:2:"03";i:1;s:2:"02";i:2;s:4:"1986";}" because it's obviously still serialised. What is my best and or easiest way of handling these fields? Many thanks in advance. Edited by Kristoff1875, 21 January 2015 - 05:24 AM. Thanks to the great help from some great people on this message board I'm right at the finish line on this page.

Please respond with ANY question if my coding or request isn't clear or if I've been confusing due to my lack of experience with PHP and MySQL. MOD EDIT: code tags added. Hi, I have an array key whose value is a line of html in quotes, the problem is , I don't know how to do it. Lol. Any help greatly appreciated because the below code is generating an error in my editor. Thank you. Derek here is the line. Code: [Select] 'level_1'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME.jpg'/>'", EDIT: actually I managed to fix the error adding a semicolon after the parenthesis. Is this array correct please? Code: [Select] $currentLocation = array ( 'teardrop_ocean_bg' => array ( 'level_1'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME.jpg'/>'" ) ); it's not finished yet. Well, the title pretty much says it all. I'm trying to extract data from an array, put it into a 2D array and then sort it. Then I need to put it's "place" in the order into the table. I've sort of got something so far but it seems like my while loop isn't working correctly. $q="SELECT COUNT(*), horseID, total FROM enteredHorses"; $r = mysqli_query ($dbc, $q) or trigger_error(mysqli_error($dbc)); while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($r, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) { $count = $row['COUNT(*)']; $horse_id = $row['horseID']; $total = $row['total']; for ($counter = 1; $counter <= $count; $counter += 1) { $i = 0; $id[$i] = $horse_id; $total[$i] = $total; $i = $i+1; } } //end while array_multisort($total, SORT_DESC, $id); while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($r, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) { for ($counter = 1; $counter <= $count; $counter += 1) { $i = 0; $place = '1'; $q = "INSERT INTO enteredHorses (place) VALUES ('$place') WHERE horse_id='$id[$i']'"; $r = mysqli_query ($dbc, $q) or trigger_error(mysqli_error($dbc)); $i = $i + 1; $place = $place + 1; } } I'm getting this error: "array_multisort() [function.array-multisort]: Argument #1 is expected to be an array or a sort flag " I'm really baffled. Any help? Hi Everyone, I have a problem displaying some information from an array (selected from my database). The array is below. Array ( [0] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => Web [sc_skill_categories] => Programming ) [1] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => Actionscript [sc_skill_categories] => Programming ) [2] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => C# [sc_skill_categories] => Programming ) [3] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => CSS [sc_skill_categories] => Programming ) [4] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => Graphic [sc_skill_categories] => Designers ) [5] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => Logo [sc_skill_categories] => Designers ) [6] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => Illistration [sc_skill_categories] => Designers ) [7] => Array ( [ssc_skill_categories] => Animation [sc_skill_categories] => Designers ) ) What i would like to to is display this information in a table like so: <html> <body> <table> <tr> <td>Programming</td><td>Web</td><td>Actionscript</td><td>C#</td><td>CSS</td> <tr> <tr> <td>Designers</td><td>Graphic</td><td>Logo</td><td>Illistration</td><td>Animation</td> <tr> <table> </body> </html> I have been trying and failing all day to do this. Posting my "progress" will clog up the thread, so for now i wont post it. Does anyone have an idea how i would achieve this? Regards, -Ben Hi again all, Why does the foreach loop im doing, put the array values from collection, into seperate table rows rather than 1 row per whole array? <?php class registration{ public $fields = array("username", "email", "password"); public $data = array(); public $table = "users"; public $dateTime = ""; public $datePos = 0; public $dateEntryName = "date"; public $connection; function timeStamp(){ return($this->dateTime = date("Y-m-d H:i:s")); } function insertRow($collection){ //HERE foreach($this->fields as $row => $value){ mysql_query("INSERT INTO $this->table ($value) VALUES ('$collection[$row]')"); } mysql_close($this->connection->connectData); } function validateFields(){ $this->connection = new connection(); $this->connection->connect(); foreach($this->fields as $key => $value){ array_push($this->data, $_POST[$this->fields[$key]]); } $this->dateTime = $this->timeStamp(); array_unshift($this->data, $this->dateTime); array_unshift($this->fields, $this->dateEntryName); foreach($this->data as $value){ echo "$value"; } $this->insertRow($this->data); } } $registration = new registration(); $registration->validateFields(); ?> I end up with 3 rows row 1: username row 2: email row 3 : password rather than row 1:username email password. Hi, In my mysql database i have a text input option, in the registration form and edit my details form i have a multiple select dropdown list, which user selects options to populate the text input box, which ultimately populates the text field in the mysql database. All works perfectly. The dropdownlist consists of 3 parts <optgroups> first is current selection (what is the usesr current selection)works fine, The second <optgroup> is existing words, what words we(the site) have given as options, and the third <optgroup> is the words that others have used. This is where im having a small problem. Because its a text field when i call the data from the database, it calls the entire text box as a single option in my select list.. I want to break the words in the text field (at the comma) and have them listed each one as an option in the select list. Example what i need: Words in text box:(my input allows the "comma") word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, word6, How i want them called/displayed: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> here's my code: $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $original_functionsexperience =doSelectSql($query,1); $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $functionsexperiencelist=doSelectSql($query); $funcexpList ="<select multiple=\"multiple\" onchange=\"setFunctionsexperience(this.options)\">"; foreach ($functionsexperiencelist as $functionsexperienceal) { $selected=""; if ($functionsexperienceals->allwords == $original_functionsexperience) $selected=' selected="selected"'; $allwords=$functionsexperienceal->allwords; $funcexpList .= "<optgroup label=\"Current selection\"> <option value=\"".$allwords."\" ".$selected." >".$allwords."</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Existing Words\"> <option value=\"existing1,\">existing1</option> <option value=\"existing2,\">existing2</option> <option value=\"existing3,\">existing3</option> <option value=\"existing4,\">existing4</option> <option value=\"existing5,\">existing5</option> <option value=\"existing6,\">existing6</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Others added\"> //heres problem <option value=\"".$allwordsgeneral."\">".$allwordsgeneral."</option> </optgroup>"; } $funcexpList.="</select>"; $output['FUNCEXPLIST']=$funcexpList; The result im getting for optgroup others added: word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, how can i get it like this: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> Hi, I use the following code to create a select menu from an array of options stored in LISTS.php: include 'LISTS.php'; print('<select id="from" name="from">'); foreach ($langList as $lang) {printf('<option %s>%s</option>', ($from1 == $lang ? 'selected="selected"' : ''), $lang); } echo '</select>'; where LISTS.php includes the following: $langList = array(' ','English', 'French', 'German', 'Dutch', 'Spanish'); This works great, but now I want to do something similar with a checkbox list, where each checkbox has an associated 'onchange' javascript function and I'm getting pretty stuck. My checkbox list is of the following form: Code: [Select] <html> <ul style="height: 95px; overflow: auto; width: 200px; border: 1px solid #480091; list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> <li id="li1b"><label for="chk1b"><input name="chk1b" id="chk1b" type="checkbox" onchange="function1('chk1b','li1b')">Option1</label></li> <li id="li2b"><label for="chk2b"><input name="chk2b" id="chk2b" type="checkbox" onchange="function1('chk2b','li2b')">Option2</label></li> //etc. </ul> </html> What I want to do is have 'Option1', 'Option2', etc. stored in an array in LISTS.php and have a PHP script that populates the checkbox list accordingly, in a similar manner to my select menu above. I can't work out how to get the ID of the next <li> and the next <input> in the list to go up by one each time, e.g. 'li1b' then 'li2b', 'li3b', etc. Could someone pls help me out? Thanks! Hey! I have a table and in that table I have a "name" field, and a "description" field. I'm trying to make a tag system for these rows. I'd like to use a denormalized approach because I can't wrap my head around a normalized approach. I don't have a problem adding, for instance, catid_1, catid_2, catid_3 columns and do a WHERE statement to fetch only rows with that particular column IE: $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE catid_1='categorynameortag' ORDER BY DESC") How would I make it so rather than having individual columns, I can put all that data into one field with comma's. Then also, how would I fetch and display only rows with one of the words in the field? Thank you for your help. I am attempting to submit a form that includes multiple check boxes for one data field. I have set it up the implode the data and make it a comma delimited array. I am able to echo the results, yet I have not been able to post the information to the database.

So, from the begining then. Lets say I had a member table and in it I wanted to store what their top 3 interests are. Their$ row has all the usual things to identify them userID and password etc.. and I had a further 3 columns which were labled top3_1 top3_2 & top3_3 to put each of their interests in from a post form. If instead I wanted to store this data as a PHP Array instead (using 1 column instead of 3) is there a way to store it as readable data when you open the PHPmyadmin? At the moment all it says is array and when I call it back to the browser (say on a page where they could review and update their interests) it displays 'a' as top3_01 'r' as top3_02 and 'r' as top3_03 (in each putting what would be 'array' as it appears in the table if there were 5 results. Does anyone know what I mean? For example - If we had a form which collected the top 3 interests to put in a table called users, Code: [Select] <form action="back_to_same_page_for_processing.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input name="top3_01" type="text" value="enter interest number 1 here" /> <input name="top3_02" type="text" value="enter interest number 2 here" /> <input name="top3_03" type="text" value="enter interest number 3 here" /> <input type="submit" name="update_button" value=" Save and Update! " /> </form> // If my quick code example for this form is not correct dont worry its not the point im getting at :) And they put 'bowling' in top3_01, 'running' in top3_02 and 'diving' in top3_03 and we catch that on the same page with some PHP at the top --> Code: [Select] if (isset($_POST)['update_button']) { $top3_01 = $_POST['top3_01']; // i.e, 'bowling' changing POST vars to local vars $top3_02 = $_POST['top3_02']; // i.e, 'running' $top3_03 = $_POST['top3_03']; // i.e, 'diving' With me so far? If I had a table which had 3 columns (1 for each interest) I could put something like - Code: [Select] include('connect_msql.php'); mysql_query("Select * FROM users WHERE id='$id' AND blah blah blah"); mysql_query("UPDATE users SET top3_01='$top3_01', top3_02='$top3_02', top3_03='$top3_03' WHERE id='$id'"); And hopefully if ive got it right, it will put them each in their own little column. Easy enough huh? But heres the thing, I want to put all these into an array to be stored in the 1 column (say called 'top3') and whats more have them clearly readable in PHPmyadmin and editable from there yet still be able to be called back an rendered on page when requested. Continuing the example then, assuming ive changed the table for the 'top3' column instead of individual colums, I could put something like this - Code: [Select] if (isset($_POST)['update_button']) { $top3_01 = $_POST['top3_01']; // i.e, 'bowling' changing POST vars to local vars $top3_02 = $_POST['top3_02']; // i.e, 'running' $top3_03 = $_POST['top3_03']; // i.e, 'diving' $top3_array = array($top3_01,$top3_02,$top3_03); include('connect_msql.php'); mysql_query("UPDATE members SET top3='$top3_array' WHERE id='$id' AND blah blah blah"); But it will appear in the column as 'Array' and when its called for using a query it will render the literal string. a r r in each field instead. Now I know you can use the 'serialize()' & 'unserialize()' funtcions but it makes the entry in the database practically unreadable. Is there a way to make it readable and editable without having to create a content management system? If so please let me know and I'll be your friend forever, lol, ok maybe not but I'd really appreciate the help anyways. The other thing is, If you can do this or something like it, how am I to add entries to that array to go back into the data base? I hope ive explained myself enough here, but if not say so and I'll have another go. Thanks very much people, L-PLate (P.s if I sort this out on my own ill post it all here) Hello. I am just trying to sort an array alphabetically. Here's the code I'm using: function GetAssocCharities($registrationNo) { $db = ConnectionString::ConnectTo_www_ago_mo_gov_data(); $sqlstring = "SELECT * FROM charityPartners where RegistrationNo LIKE '$registrationNo' ORDER BY Name"; $results = @mysql_query($sqlstring); $org = null; while ($resultArray = mysql_fetch_array($results)) { $temp = new Registrants($resultArray['ARegNoFormatted'], $resultArray); $org[] = $temp; } return asort($org); } When I try to loop through the array using a foreach loop, I get an error that Invalid argument supplied for foreach(). Here's my foreach loop: $lstCharities = OrgQueries::GetAssocCharities($registrant->RegNoFormatted); foreach($lstCharities as $c) { //dom something here } I'm sure its something with not understanding list v array or something or that nature, but I'm not having much luck figuring it out with google. Thanks! nothing gets put into the select list Alright, so I have an xml file differences.xml that is being parsed in XML. This is what the xml looks like: <item code="lM" name="dog"> <cost>5000</cost> <Start>12/15/2010</Start> <End>01/13/2011</End> </item> <item code="lF" name="cat"> <cost>5000</cost> <Start>04/15/2010</Start> <End>04/23/2011</End> </item>[/ I want to have the item names (dog, cat) show in a dropdown menu so that I can select these items for editing before storing in my mysql database. This is the php code I have so far: <?PHP $xml = simplexml_load_file("differences.xml"); $object = $xml->xpath("//item"); echo '<SELECT name=object>'; foreach ($object['name'] as $key => $value) { echo '<OPTION value='.$value.'> '.$value; } echo '</select>'; ?> I do have a dropdown list but there are no values inside it (it is empty). Can anyone help me figure out why? I do have this code that does work which lists the items in plaintext (not in a dropdown) so hopefull this will help us out: <?PHP $xml = simplexml_load_file("differences.xml"); $object = $xml->xpath("//item"); $count = count($object); $i = 0; while($i < $count) { echo '<h1>'.$object[$i]['name'].'</h1>'; $i++; } ?> |
