PHP - Trying To Place Div In Loop ...

I currently have a Javascript placed at the top of the same file as my HTML form.

Now I need to run the file as PHP, and was wondering what the proper protocol and best practice is for the JavaScript (which does some client side validation).

Can I leave it as is, at the top of the file  after changing the extention to PHP.
If I put it in a seperate file, should I call it as a JavaScript or as an INCLUDE file.
If I INCLUDE it, should the INCLUDE be a PHP file (that contains the JS, or a JS extention.

Does any of this make a difference, or will any method work, leaving it to personal preference?

I am working to echo the results in a while or for loop... Both of my sample codes work, but the results are wrong!

The while loop ONLY echos a result IF the first record in the postings table matches the id passed (does not display a result unless the first record has a match)

The if loop displays ALL listings with the same name (counts them all) so there are no unique listings!


<?php

$posts_by_city_sql = "SELECT * FROM postings WHERE id='$_GET[id]'";
$posts_by_city_results = (mysqli_query($cxn, $posts_by_city_sql)) or die("Was not able to grab the Postings!");

/* While Loop  */
while($posts_by_city_row = mysqli_fetch_array($posts_by_city_results)) {
echo "<li><a href='posting_details.php?id=$posts_by_city_row[id]'>$posts_by_city_row[title]</a></li>";
}

/* For Loop  */
$posts_by_city_row = mysqli_fetch_array($posts_by_city_results);
 
for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($posts_by_city_row); $i++) {
echo "<li><a href='posting_details.php?id=$posts_by_city_row[id]'>$posts_by_city_row[title]</a></li>";
 }

?>

Results with for loop (there are 7 total unique book names, but it's just counting the first match on id 7 times like below):

I want to create many PDF pages by using a PDF document template that uses place holders   The data would come from a CSV file   I've looked into a solution for the above for a couple of years now! I haven't found anything that would do the trick for me   It seems as though PDF and PHP don't go well - especially if I want to use a template with place holders   Just looking for suggestions Thanks   EDIT: forget PDF... is it possible to use something else? Like a Word doc??     OM

Hiya peeps!

I have this code;


if(preg_match('([0-9]{5})', $this->_searchString)) {
echo '5 characters, numbers only.';
} elseif(preg_match('([0-9]{7})', $this->_searchString)) {
echo '7 characters, numbers only.';
}


The 7 characters are not working for some reason, I have used this preg_match regex all over my script and it's working everywhere else but with this?

Can anyone see any reason why it is not working?

Many thanks,

James.

I need a way to find numbers 0000-9999 where no number has more than 2 digits in the same place in common. I know PHP but this is a little beyond me, can anyone help?

Greetings once again,

My script retrieves variables from a database and pre-populates a form:
Code: [Select]
<input type="text"" name="First" value="<?php echo stripslashes($row['First']); ?>" >
Simple to do with text fields, but not as simple for checkboxes:
Code: [Select]
<input type="checkbox" name="Subject" size="27" value="Math"  checked>
In the past I've used JavaScript to place a check in a checkbox, based on the value in the database.  Can anyone show me a simple way to use PHP to place the check if the variable found in the database is in fact "Math"; but leave it it unchecked if the Subject value is empty?

As always, thank you!

Got this working script that sends email via a form:

<?php
if(empty($_POST) === false) {
  $errors = array();

  $name = $_POST['name'];
  $email = $_POST['email'];
  $message = $_POST['message'];

  if(empty($name) === true || empty($email) === true || empty($message) === true) {
    $errors[] = 'name, email and message are required!';

  } else {
      if (filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL) === false) {
      $errors[] = 'Not valid email';
    }
    if (ctype_alpha($name) === false) {
    $errors[] = 'name contain letters!';
  }

}

if(empty($errors) === true)

{
  mail('XXXXXXX@gmail.com','contact form',$message, 'From: '.$email);
  header('Location: index.php?sent'); exit();
}

}

?>

 

Problem is, I want a bar to appear saying 'Message Sent. We Will Contact You Shortly'.

I'm brand new to php and followed a tutorial for the above. It's a simple form that I understand, apart from the code needed for confirmation!

Please can someone offer any assistance.

Thanks in advance......

 

What would be the best way to break the following html into a table

<div class="highlight">Name:&nbsp;CHRISTOPHER</div>
      <table summary="This table contains status information for the selected name.">
         <caption>Selected name status Information</caption>
         <tr>
            <th>Current Name:</th>
            <td>CHRISTOPHER</td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
            <th>Initial Filing Date:</th>
            <td>DECEMBER  15, 1997</td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
            <th>County:</th>
            <td>NEW YORK</td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
            <th>Jurisdiction:</th>
            <td>NEW YORK</td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
            <th>Type:</th>
            <td>Full Member</td>
         </tr>


Would pregmatch or COMDocument be easier?

Hello,

I'm getting my feet wet with PHP and databases. I've read that I can provide the login for a database in a separate file, which I can place in a directory located OUTSIDE of my site (parent folder). This works fine at the isp where my site is being hosted.

However, now I want to do the same thing at a site that is hosted at (ugh) GoDaddy. Unfortunately, GoDaddy does not allow access outside of the site (aka parent folder of the site). So now where am I supposed to put the file with the database login info in it so it will be secure?

Thank you.

I have a membership directory that I've been working with for a long time, and recent server upgrades with MySQL, PHP, etc. forced me to do some recoding. While I was doing that, I wanted to try and make some improvements. I must give a brief description of the intent, and then the results I got, so someone can sort out the problem for me. I have a query that selects all "Agent" members, then orders them by County, then by Company Name. What I am trying to do is create a new heading in my list every time the County information changes as the list is sorted and output to my table.   I am going to attache 2 .php files with my code. The agent_member_list.php is the original code that pulls all of the members properly, and results can be viewed he http://www.nmlta.org...member_list.php   The agent2_member_list.php is where I'm trying to insert the new conditional statement to print my County headings when a new County is encountered in the results. The heading actually works, and changes correctly, but the problem is that the first member entry in every county is not printed in the output. I know the query is correct, so I'm sure I've got the conditional "if" for checking County field wrong, or misplaced.  Here is the link to it: http://www.nmlta.org...member_list.php   I'm hoping someone can spot my error pretty quickly, I only dabble in this very rarely.  Thanks for any help!

I have recently started a Wordpress Site (www.edsstudios.com). Let me say in advance I am a designer and not a coder, hence the need to come to this forum. I installed a theme which I would like to customize on the home page. I want to place three images along with text below the image slider of the theme.  I have included an attachment (pic1.jpg) showing the photoshop mock of how I want the home page to look.  Keep in mind I only want to add the image below the image slider. The rest of the page is already existing as part of the wordpress theme.

So, I sliced up only the images from the photoshop mock(pic2.jpg) within photoshop and produced the web ready images and html code.  I opened the home.php file but can't get the code to function.  Below is the code for the home.php page first.  Below that is the html code for the images.  Can someone tell me if there is something wrong with the code for the images along with where to place it on the home.php file?

while ($Row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($carouselResult)){
$EventName = $Row['EventTitle'];
$image = $Row['eImage'];

/* $big_image = LISTING OF ALL IMAGES */
$big_image =  array('<span><img src="https://alaskapac.centertix.net/UPLImage/' . $image . '" alt="' . $EventName. '" title="' . $EventName . '" id="wows'. $i .'" /></span>'."\n");
$i2 = $i;
$i = $i+1;
/* $nav_image = TINY BOXES TO NAVIGATE THROUGHOUT CAROUSEL */
$nav_image = array('<a href="#wows' . $i2 . '" title="'.$EventName.'"><img src="https://alaskapac.centertix.net/UPLImage/' . $image . '" alt="' . $EventName. '" />'.$i.'</a>'."\n");
$i2 = $i2+1;
}

echo '<div id="wowslider-container1">'."\n".'<div class="ws_images">'."\n";
echo array($big_image);
echo '</div><div class="ws_bullets"><div>'."\n";
echo array($nav_image);
echo '</div></div>'."\n".'</div>';

But array($big_image) and array($nav_image) do not work as I expected and it just produces the following HTML code:
Code: [Select]
<div id="wowslider-container1">
<div class="ws_images">
Array</div><div class="ws_bullets"><div>
Array</div></div>
</div>
Can anyone help out a beginner in PHP?
