PHP - Issue In Self Options Adding Of Question..

Code: [Select]
         
         $stock_count_attrib1=$db->sp("attrib_stock1");
$stock_count_attrib2=($db->sp("attrib_stock2"));

          $total_stock_count = ($stock_count_attrib1+$stock_count_attrib2);

echo $total_stock_count ;


Outputs: 22180

Value of: attrib_stock1 = 22
Value of: attrib_stock2 = 18

I thought the output should be: 40?

Please help.

Please excuse my newbieness trying to learn...

  No idea how to add a new line so it's easier to read in the terminal. Debugging this way is absolutely horrible.

I am trying to set up a item entry page form.png:

Upon submission it shows unsuccessful even though I have checked the fields on mysql table and seem to be good am I missing something?

Hi guys, first post here from a relative newbie   I'm working on my final project for php and I'm running into a bit of a road block. The error is I'm trying to validate which radio button is checked to run a corresponding function to either add a car, drop a car, or display a car.  Everything seems to work fine but my if statement won't pick up the change and therefore my function won't run. 

This is the output that I receive from the code. [taken from the bottom of the php when I select Add Car(s) on the form]

input = 11112111421
add_status=add_status
unchecked=unchecked

Here's the script and htm form.

My second part of this is wondering how to construct my display query to run right.  I'd like to be able to run it on any possible input from the text box. I basically want to do something like (WHERE LIKE '%') where there isn't an input from the htm form. My thought was to build the query on a series of concatenations through a function, but that seems like a lot of work.  I just feel like it's important to give that functionality to the program. 

Thanks for looking, and hopefully I don't confuse you readers that much :3  Also I know that the mysql_query(); is going out of style but just go with it for the sake of my sanity  

Ok here it is, seems like it is an easy problem but my developers are having some issue with this, I hope you guys can help.

Basic question and answer problem, where I am developing a website that uses Items and questions like " How many of this Item do you need?" the answer seems to simple. Lets say the answer Is "1". The display is given to the Item list and we move on.

Here is the Problem: When selecting Muiltiple Items in the List and they all have the same question associated to each Item: "How Many Items do you need?" the the answer is shared between the Items, Again, sounds simple so far, However, when the USER selects Multiple Items on a list say 30 Items then the Question should only be dispalyed one time, not 30 times, then the answer is shared 30 times. Thats what I have now being displayed on my website, 30 of the same questions over and over again. The USER will get frustrated and leave the site never to return.

Question: How can I get the Question to be displayed only once, but shared between several items on a list?

This is a very serious problem fo my website because I will have not have just one Item on a list but 300 to 400 items, and if I get the answer to the problem I have just wasted 1 year of my life developing something undevelopable (is that a word?). 

Any Help you can give me would greatly be appricated.

Thank you in advance.

My table has 250 rows, but COUNT only seems to see 162 of them.  In phpMyAdmin, for instance, there is a notice in the browse tab: "Showing rows 0-161 (162 total, Query took 0.0030 sec)".  On one of my php pages, I get the same 162 result from this attempt to count the number of entries to my auto-incrementing "id" column :

$result = mysql_query('SELECT COUNT(id) AS id_count FROM MyTable)';

Can anyone suggest the kinds of things I should check/adjust to understand why about 90 rows are not being counted?  Many thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.

I think this is a simple question, but I'm just starting out and can't figure out how to do this exactly.

I'm making a demo site for a flower shop. The structure is as such (only listing the particular files in question - once this is done, the rest will be easy)

index.php -> inc_show_colors.php -> showColors.php

The index is to be standard through the site, loading include files into a main content area.  Clicking on a link loads inc_by_color.php (index.php -> index.php?page=by_color )

From there, one of the four colors is selected.

showColors.php contains switch statements for each color. I want to load showColors.php into the main content window when a color is selected, and I need to have it work for all four colors. I'm not sure how to do this, as you can't pass a variable to an include from what I understand.

What's the easiest way to go about this? Keep in mind this is an intro class and "best practices" are not necessary yet, just the simplest solution to get it working.

 I want each of these colors to link to another include file, which will load in its place in index.php.


index.php:
Code: [Select]
<div id="maincontent">
<?php
if (isset($_GET['page'])) {
switch ($_GET['page']) {
case 'by_color':
include('includes/inc_by_color.php');
break;
case 'by_type':
include('includes/inc_by_type.php');
break;
case 'by_occasion':
include('includes/inc_by_occasion.php');
break;
case 'view_cart':
include('includes/inc_view_cart.php');
break;
case 'payment_options':
include('includes/inc_payment_options.php');
break;

case 'home_page':
default:
include('includes/inc_home.php');
break;
}
}
else 
include('includes/inc_home.php');

?>
</div>

inc_by_color.php:
The first link I tried doing in the way I thought would work, but it doesn't. It can't find the include file.
The second one works, kind of - but it just loads the page by itself, not into the maincontent div in index.php.
Code: [Select]
<h1>Flowers Categorized by Color</h1>
<div class="picdivcontainer">
<div class="picdiv"><a href="index.php?page=red"><img src="images/image.png" width="90" height="90" alt="Red Flowers" />
  <p>Red</a></p></div>
<div class="picdiv"><a href="showColors.php?color=white"><img src="images/image.png" width="90" height="90" alt="White Flowers" /></a>
  <p><a href="showColors.php?color=white">White</a></p></div>
</div>

and showColors.php:
Code: [Select]
if (isset($_GET['color'])) {
switch ($_GET['color']) {
case 'red':
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM flowers WHERE color='red'") or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
// Set and trim strings and show the resulting flowers from query
$flowername = $row['name'];
$flowerimage = $row['image'];
$image_path = "images/";
$flowername = str_replace('_', ' ', $flowername);
$flowername = ucwords($flowername);
?> <div class="picdiv"><p><?php echo $flowername."<br />";
$flowerimage = str_replace(' ', '_', $flowerimage);
echo "<img src='images/" . $row['image'] . "' />";
?></p></div> <?php
} 
break;
I realize that showColors.php is probably a really messy way of doing this, but I just need to get it functioning ASAP for now.

Hi  I have this serach function, wich searches on site by a lot of parameters at the same time (titolo, titolo2, attore1,etc...) , but I want to make them options, so you would have a search field and an options dropdown menu.

Can anyone help me with this?

function jm_search(){
global $database, $sstring, $my, $cinConfig, $Itemid, $option, $mainframe;

$tl_title = _JMOVIES_SEARCHRESULT." ".$sstring;

$suchstring = trim( strtolower( $sstring ) );
$query1   = "SELECT * FROM #__jmovies WHERE"
."\n (titolo LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR titolo2 LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR attore1 LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR attore2 LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR attore3 LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR attore4 LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR nazione LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR regista LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR descrizione LIKE '%".$suchstring."%'"
."\n OR anno LIKE '%".$suchstring."%') AND published = 1 AND access <= ".(int)$my->gid." ORDER BY titolo";
$database->setQuery($query1);
//echo $database->getQuery();
$rows = $database->loadObjectList();

if(is_file($mainframe->getCfg('absolute_path')."/components/".$option."/templates/".$cinConfig['template']."/show_search_tpl.php"))
require($mainframe->getCfg('absolute_path')."/components/".$option."/templates/".$cinConfig['template']."/show_search_tpl.php");
else
require($mainframe->getCfg('absolute_path')."/components/".$option."/templates/default/show_search_tpl.php");

}
HTML
Code: [Select]

Hello,

I'm just learning php (by force), but am pretty well versed in html and css. I did not rite the following code and I'm not sure how to pull out the php in the following in order to make the page validate.

      <tr>
         <td width="15%"><b><b>Priority</b></td>
         <td>
         <select name="priority" size="1" value="priority">
            <option value=""
<?php if ($row['priority'] == "") echo " selected";?>
            ></option>
            <option value="Normal"
<?php if ($row['priority'] == "Normal") echo " selected";?>
            >Normal</option>
            <option value="Elevated"
<?php if ($row['priority'] == "Elevated") echo " selected";?>
            >Elevated</option>
            <option value="STAT"
<?php if ($row['priority'] == "STAT") echo " selected";?>
            >STAT</option>
         </select>
         </td>
      </tr>

The idea is to prefetch the "priority" info and populate the drop down with that. Afterwards, the user can change the value and once submitted, the value will change in the database. Any pointers would be appreciated - and thanks in advance.

Hi, I haven't worked with PHP in years and was asked to debug something.  Maybe you can help me out since I'm stuck.  This error popped up when we upgraded from PHP 5.3 to 5.4.   It is setting LDAP options.   Here is the code: ldap_set_option($ldapconn, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3);
ldap_set_option($ldapconn, LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS, 0) or die ("Could not set option referrals");     Both of these statement are throwing the following error message to the log.   52 is not a valid ldap link resource   Anything I can check or look at? I am a little clueless here.   Thanks    

I have 3 basic questions.  I did a few Google Searches for this data and could not find anything substantion.

What options are available to somewho who wants to send notifications to a Desktop PC (main thing), Android phone, and maybe a few other phone types.  The main thing I need to figure out is about desktop notifications. I heard that GMail was about to release this feature soon, so I know there must be options out there for it.  Are there any options, besides a standard custom desktop application development?

I am new to PHP and wasting no time have jumped into creating my own database system. Its actually a psuedo-database, but who cares it works. I've done something some-what similar in Python but with a static single file database.

What I have is directories as like:
./1/index.listing
./2/index.listing
./3/index.listing

The numbers are a product... product 1, product 2, you know..
What I want to do is on the product category page, using:
Code: [Select]
include('./*/index.listing');.. where * would mean for PHP to scan all relative directories and include 'index.listing', which will result in a list being built for the product category, showing all the available products.
There is probably some way to do this in MySQL, but I am already familiur with this style of database, so why waste more Saturday nights learning something I don't have to when I could be out getting drunk and partying with girls 10 years younger than me. LuLz

Hi, 

Old issue of mine that I'm coming back to. My question is I'm trying to figure out how to work with the select box of options and apply button so that if delete is chosen and the user clicks on apply it performs the deletedivision inside the process page I know it deals with jquery's ajax however this part of it does not that I'm trying to get fixed because as of right now I have if (isset($_POST['deletedivision'])) and I know that's not right and I know I can't apply a name to the option tag because name isn't one of option's allowable attributes.

I'm creating a blog for my wife. I've been a programmer for 15 years or so, but I have always avoided file upload due to fear of the security risks. I want to allow guests at my wife's website to upload photos. I have done a lot of research, but I can't really find a solution that takes away the anxiety. I've looked into a few cdn's such as cloudshare and amazon s3, but their services seem like overkill for just wanting to be able to display pictures for her blog. I'm just curious if anyone has any suggested routes, tutorials, or personal experiences. It seems most sites offer image uploads, I feel like it shouldn't be that complicated in 2019. The link below seems to make the most sense, but I haven't found a whole lot like it, and that was written four years ago. I host all my clients on subdomains, and most of my work is geared towards inventory which is why I have stayed away from file uploads.
