Hi there!

I found this code to parse a MySQL query to PDF, but it's for small address labels and I was wondering how to make it for 4x6 labels?
<?php
define('FPDF_FONTPATH','/home/directory/public_html/sub/font/');
require_once('fpdf.php');
//Connect to your database
mysql_connect("localhost", "db_user","db_pw") or
    die ("Could not connect to database");
mysql_select_db("database_name") or
    die ("Could not select database");

$query  = "SELECT employee_name, street_address, City, state, zip_code FROM employees ORDER BY `employee_name` ";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);

function PrintAddressLabels($result){ 


  $pdf=new FPDF(); 

  $pdf->Open();
  $pdf->AddPage(); 
  $pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',14);
  $pdf->SetMargins(0,0); 
  $pdf->SetAutoPageBreak(false); 
  $x = 0;
  $y = 0;
  $i=0;

  while (TRUE) {

    if ($row=$result[$i]) {

      //positions set above 
      $LabelText = sprintf("%s\n%s %s\n%s, %s, %s", 
      $row['employee_name'],
      $row['street_address'],
      $row['City'],
      $row['state'],
      $row['zip_code']);


      Avery5160($x,$y,&$pdf,$LabelText);

      $y++; // next row 
      if ($y == 10 ) { // end of page wrap to next column 
        $x++; 
        $y = 0; 
        if ($x == 3 ) { // end of page 
          $x = 0; 
          $y = 0; 
          $pdf->AddPage(); 
        }
      }
      $i++; //counter through result
    } else {
      // Error quit printing 
      break; 
    }

  {
  $pdf->Output('mailing_labels.pdf','D');
}
?>

Does anyone know where I can find some good resources/tutorials that covers how to use the PDF stuff with PHP or know how I can change this up to match for 4x6 at all?

Any help or info is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

hi i have this code here and i was wondering how i could make it print out the values from my database using a drop down menu.
i no this is probably very basic but im a real novice at php and sql.


<?php
mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '');
mysql_select_db('charity_data');
$result = mysql_query('select * from donations');
?>
<select name="selectname">
<?php
$i = 0;
while ($i < mysql_num_fields($result)){
  $fieldname = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
  echo '<option value="'.$fieldname.'">'.$fieldname.'</option>';
  $i++;
}



?>

Hi All,

I am trying to generate a PDF report using the below code. the report is being generated perfectly. The problem that I face is that, while printing the report the browser disregards the "IF" condition that I have given in the code.

Explanation :
-----------------
It prints all the data in the MySQL database wherein I wanted the data to be printed only on a certain condition. How do I achieve this?

I'm not quite sure how to display the values of the $productSheets array in the email message. Everytime it either outputs "Array" or "1". The $productSheets array is from a checkbox on a form. Everything else is working as expected.

Hi, I want to echo an image depending on a value. This is the code I'm using

I've got a database file from sqlite, there is a multidimensional array in it with 10 metals.
I just want two print out each element in a table

It won't get all the separate data inside a HEREDOC


foreach ($product_prices as $metal => $prices)

"<tr><td>$metal</td><td align = 'right'>".
round($prices[wire][28]*$l_conv*$w_conv,4).
"<tr><td>$metal</td><td align = 'right'>".
round($prices[wire][36]*$l_conv*$w_conv,4).

Hi guys,
I'm using this EOD thingi in order to print a table and get it PDF. I am using TCPDF and following their examples to get the PDF output.
I need to print a php variable's value within the EOD.
Can you please help me out.
Below is the piece of code I'm running.

Code: [Select]
$tbl = <<<EOD
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" border="1">
    <tr>
        <td rowspan="4"><img src="images/m24.jpg"></td>
        <td align="right" width="150">From the desk of</td>
        <td>: $contat</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td align="right">E-Mail</td>
<td>: $email</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
       <td align="right">Telephone</td>
   <td>: $telephone</td>
    </tr>
      <tr>
       <td align="right">Mobile</td>
   <td>: $mobile</td>
    </tr>
</table>
EOD;

the $variables are simply ignored. or even if I echo, there is no PHP value.
Can you guys please shed some light on this issue.
Pretty pleeeaaassseee

The following generic code prints out a given table in my database, by first getting the fieldnames and putting them as the title of each column, and then getting the values.  How do I change it so that if the name of the field is "password", the value will echo "----" instead of the password?

$sql = "SELECT * FROM $tablename";

$result = mysql_query($sql) or die("Query failed : " . mysql_error()); 

$row = 1;
?>

<table width="90%" border="1"><?php 
//the MYSQL_ASSOC gets field names instead of numbers
while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
if ($row == 1) {
?><tr><?php
foreach ($line as $col_key => $col_value) {
?><th><?php echo $col_key;?></th><?php
}
?></tr><?php
}
?><tr><?php
foreach ($line as $col_value) {
?><td><?php 

echo $col_value;?></td><?php 
}
?></tr><?php 
$row++;

I am using sprintf( mysql_insert_id()); to print primary  key but I can save this in a varible and echo this. But I would like to know how to save this in to a session and use this one another page.

Hi I have a problem that I must admit I have come across before but I can't remember the fix.

When I do a simple select query then print it out using a while statement, I can't get it to print out the first record of my results.

I am sure this is to do with the execute statement but I can't get it to work properly.

I currently have test data in so I know this should bring out 6 records but it only lists 5

I am trying to print out information from a list.  I thought I had this figured out but realized It was just printing out the same information over and over.
This is from a Joomla website and I am using the J2store extension, just to give you the information from where this is coming from.

So this is suppose to print out all the attributes from a single order. Each item in the order has any number of attributes that make it up.  I am using it as an assembly site.  So each assembly will have different attributes that make it up. (Hope that explains it good enough.)

<?php
  	JModelLegacy::addIncludePath(JPATH_SITE.'/components/com_j2store/models');
  	$model = JModelLegacy::getInstance( 'OrderItemAttributes', 'J2StoreModel' );
  ?>	
  
  <?php foreach (@$items as $item) : ?>
  
  <?php
 	//these are just printed to show the 5 different items in the same order
 
 	echo $item->order_id;
 	echo '<br />';
 	echo $item->orderitem_id;
 	echo '<br />';
 	echo $item->orderitem_name;
 	echo '<br />';
 
 
 	$model->setState( 'filter_orderitemid', $item->orderitem_id);	
 	$attributes = $model->getList();
 	
 	
 	
 	foreach($attributes as $attribute) {
 		if(!empty($attribute->orderitemattribute_value)) {
 			
 			echo $attribute->orderitemattribute_name.' : '.$attribute->orderitemattribute_value;
 			
 			echo '<br />';
 			
 		}	
 		
 	}
 	echo '<br />';
 	?>	
 
 <?php endforeach; ?>

This ends up printing out this:

The number '1402100770' is the order number.  Which in that order there were 5 items purchased.  The numbers for the orderitem_id are the correct numbers for the order number.  The name is also the correct for the items that were in the order.
The problem is when the attributes print out. It prints the same attributes for all 5 items purchased.
It seems to be printing the first items attributes for all the items in the order.

I can't figure out why the orderitem_id and orderitem_name all prints out correctly but when it prints of the attributes it just prints the same attributes for all the items in the order.
