PHP - Can't Work Out If My Syntax Is Wrong
Hi all,
As always thanks in advance. My php skills are still at a beginner level but I'm trying to get there! What I'm trying to do: Send data to the Mailchimp api (specifically email, name, birthday) What it currently does do: Sends and stores email and name What I cant get it to do: Send and store the birthday from $birthday string. First I load the form data: //Load form data $day = $_POST['Day']; $month = $_POST['Month']; $year = $_POST['Year']; //Create Birthday in mm/dd format for mailchimp $birthday = $month."/".$day;() Then I pass it later on to mailchimp: $mergeVars = array('FNAME' => $parsedName['first'], 'LNAME' => $parsedName['last'], 'BDAY'=>"$birthday");() EVERYTHING in my script works perfectly except for the birthday bit. So I tried this instead which DOES work, but doesn't use the form data defeating the whole point! $mergeVars = array('FNAME' => $parsedName['first'], 'LNAME' => $parsedName['last'], 'BDAY'=>"04/04");() I thought it may be the $birthday string wasn't in the mm/dd setup. But after echo'ing it everything is fine. I get the feeling I'm doing something stupid here. And I think it's syntax based around the 'BDAY'=>"$birthday"() part. Any help will be greatly appreciated! This is driving me INSANE. Thanks, Similar TutorialsI don't know why but I echoed this and then got the echoed query and put it in the sql of my mysql database and it says that the syntax isn't right but I looked and I don't see a problem but I am probably over looking something. $query = "INSERT INTO `characters` (charactername, shortname, status_id, style_id, division_id, alignment_id, sortorder, creator_id, datecreated, enabled) VALUES (".$charactername.",".$shortname.",".$status.",".$style.",".$division.",".$alignment.",".$sortorder.", 1, NOW(), 0)"; Code: [Select] $height = trim(htmlentities(mysqli_real_escape_string($db,$_POST['height'],ENT_QUOTES))); Here's the error message I'm getting: Warning: mysqli_real_escape_string() expects exactly 2 parameters, 3 given I just added in the htmlentities and ENT_QUOTES to the line but not sure how to format it. Any ideas? So, let me explain: Code: [Select] <?php class MySqlDatabase { private $connection; function __construct() { $this->database_connect(); } public function database_connect() { $this->connection = mysqli_connect(DB_SERVER, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME); if (!$this->connection) { die("Database connection failed: " . mysqli_error()); } } public function database_query($sql) { $query = mysqli_real_escape_string($sql, $this->connection); $result = mysqli_query($query, $this->connection); if(!$result) { die("Database query failed: " . mysqli_error()); } return $result; } public function database_close() { if (isset($this->connection)) { mysqli_close($this->connection); unset($this->connection); } } } ?> Take a look at the database_query() method. When I insert this into it from my index.php to test if it works: Code: [Select] <?php $database = new MySqlDatabase(); $sql = "INSERT INTO `website`.`users` (`id`, `username`, `first_name`, `last_name`, `password`, `email`, `secret_question`, `secret_answer`, `create_time`) VALUES (NULL, 'joe', 'joe', 'doe', 'password123', 'myemail@email.com', 'Who am I?', 'myself', '2010-10-16 13:37:59');"; $database->database_query($sql); ?>Obviously the date and the password needs some working on (hashing and entering current time), but I get this error: Warning: mysqli_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, string given in ...includes\classes.php on line 32 Warning: mysqli_query() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, null given in ..includes\classes.php on line 33 Warning: mysqli_error() expects exactly 1 parameter, 0 given in ..includes\classes.php on line 35 Database query failed: I I'm giving it a mysql syntax, but it doesn't work, also I get no error message. Hi, I am no PHP expert. I can poke about, do a little cut and paste. Dreamweaver is telling me I have a syntax issue with my if statement. I have tried a few things without success. Dreamweaver says the error is on the else line, that may not be true. please show me what I am doing wrong. Thanks Mark Code: [Select] <div class="entry-content tec-event-entry"> <?php /** Get the "cft_tinymce_1" custom field */ $block_1 = get_custom_field('cft_tinymce_1'); if( $block_1 ) { ?> <?php echo $block_1; ?> <?php } ?> <?php else { ?> <?php the_content(); ?> <?php } ?> </div> <!-- End tec-event-entry --> I can't figure out how to write the a href part to make it blend in with the existing img syntax. How do I alter this? Code: [Select] <?php echo '<a href=\"{$r['feedusername']\"><img src="', getUserAvatar($r['feedusername']), "\" class=\"avatar mediumsmall newspadding f_left mrl\" title=\"${r['associate_name']}\" alt=\"${r['associate_name']}\" /></a>"; ?> I have been looking at this code most of the morning and do not have a clue what is wrong with the code. I am hoping its not a stupid mistake, can someone please help me out? thank you

Hi.. I create mysql syntax for query testing before i input to my php code here is my mysql code: Code: [Select] set @t = 0; set @rqty=31968; SELECT LOT_CODE as code, DATE_ENTRY, CASE WHEN @t+OUTPUT_QTY > @rqty THEN @rqty -@t ELSE OUTPUT_QTY END as qty, @t := @t + d.OUTPUT_QTY as cumulative FROM dipping d WHERE SUBSTR(LOT_CODE, 9,4) = 'P28' AND (@t < @rqty); and i attach the sample output of the above query. Now that query test is work i will input that code to my php codes. $sql = "SELECT SKUCode, Materials, Comp, Qty FROM bom WHERE SKUCode = '$SKUCode'"; $res = mysql_query($sql, $con); ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)); $Materials = $row['Materials']; $Qty = $row['Qty']; $Comp = $row['Comp']; //P28 //-----Compute Req Qty and Save to table---// $ReqQty = $Qty * $POReq; // 31968 $sql = "UPDATE bom SET ReqQty = '$ReqQty' WHERE SKUCode = '$SKUCode' AND Materials = '$Materials'"; $resReqQty = mysql_query($sql, $con); $t = 0; $sql = "SELECT LOT_CODE as code, DATE_ENTRY, CASE WHEN $t+OUTPUT_QTY > $ReqQty THEN $ReqQty -$t ELSE OUTPUT_QTY END as qty, $t := $t + d.OUTPUT_QTY as cumulative FROM dipping d WHERE SUBSTR(LOT_CODE, 9,4) = '$Comp' AND ($t < $ReqQty)"; when I echo the query: I got this: SELECT LOT_CODE as code, DATE_ENTRY, CASE WHEN 0+OUTPUT_QTY > 31968 THEN 31968 -0 ELSE OUTPUT_QTY END as qty, 0 := 0 + d.OUTPUT_QTY as cumulative FROM dipping d WHERE SUBSTR(LOT_CODE, 9,4) = 'P28' AND (0 < 31968) then I run it to the sql and I got an error: Error Code : 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ':= 0 + d.OUTPUT_QTY as cumulative FROM dipping d WHERE SUBSTR(LOT_CODE, 9,4) = '' at line 1 (0 ms taken) Any help is highly appreciated Thank you so much I am querying... $sql = "SELECT `messages_inbox`.`message_id`, `users`.`firstname`, `users`.`lastname`, `users`.`username` AS `from`, '${user_info['username']}' AS `to`, `subject`, LENGTH(`files`) AS `len`, 'inbox' AS `box`, DATE_FORMAT(`messages_inbox`.`time` ,'%T %D-%M-%Y') AS `time` "; $sql .= "FROM `messages_inbox` INNER JOIN `users` ON `messages_inbox`.`from_id` = `users`.`id` WHERE `to_id` = ${user_info['uid']} AND `messages_inbox`.`deleted` = 0 ORDER BY `messages_inbox`.`message_id` DESC"; and I am trying to output $displayName = ucwords("${message['firstname']} ${message['lastname']}"); by using $messages = pm_fetch_all($_GET['box']); I know my fetch works but for some reason firstname and lastname are only returning the logged in users first name and last name, not the person who sent the message. Which of the below syntax is the better to be using? $bal = 100; if($bal > 100) { echo "you have over 100 pounds; } else { echo "you have less than 100 pounds"; } if ($bal > 100); echo "you have over than 100"; else ; echo "you have less than 100"; endif; Hi.., I use below method to export data to excel. header('Content-type: application/ms-excel'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=abc.xls'); if I run the script from the server. (http://localhost/export.php) it is work. (pop-up window if i want save or open the file) but if i run the script from the client (http://192.168.1.5/export.php) it is not work. (nothing happen) any idea how to solve this? This one requires lots of up front information: I have a page, for this example that I will call page.php. It takes get parameters, and for this example I'll call the parameter "step". So I have a URL like this: page.php?step=1 This page has a form with an action of page.php?step=1. The code on the page validates the posting information. If the information is bad, it returns the user to page.php?step=1; if it is good, it takes the user to page.php?step=2 via header( "location:page.php?step=2" ). So redirection is done by relative path, not full URLs. This all works as expected. Now what I've done is set .htaccess to be HTTPS for this page, via this code: # Turn SSL on for payments RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} \/page\.php [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L] This works (initially). However, once you try to post the form, it just redirects back to the step=1 version of the page. I really don't know how or why that would be. I'm not sure how else I can explain this or what other information you may have. But it's frustrating to not get a page working in HTTPS that works in HTTP. Very odd. Any suggestions? (I don't even really know the best location to figure out when/why it's redirecting back to the original page.) require_once 'includes/upload.class.php'; $upload = new uploads(); $details = $upload->getFileInformation($id); <?php echo $details['upload_desc']; ?> then here the class. require_once 'db.class.php'; class uploads extends database { private $uploadData; function uploadFile() { public function getFileInformation($id) { $this->uploadData = $this->readData("uploadfiles", "upload_id", $id); return $this->uploadData; } But it wont work! The issue is there seems to be NO syntax error. 1. There is no relevant code before or after this line. 2. Yes, one would think a ! should be there as did I (I didn't write the code), however, even with the ! it still gives the same error. if (function_exists('gzcompress')) die(FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND); is giving me a syntax error, unexpected 'if', expecting 'function' or 'const' I am updating this code from PHP5.3 to PHP7.4 and I can't figure out what the syntax problem is since PHP allows this. I am using Eclipse PHP to do the conversion. Some of you may have seen one of my many posts about email issues. Some users don't get them, and I have determined it is probably because we are marked as spam.
We are a service that grades sales team members on their phone skills. Listening to pre-recorded calls, grading and uploading them to our site, and then another part of our business looks them over and sometimes leaves a message that then get's forwarded to this persons work email.
I have determined there is ways to get marked as spam as default by not having an opt out link. This is not an option, these sales members employer has opted in, and the emails are going to work related accounts hosted at that employer. Also, if one of these staff members is not so bright, or disgruntled they may mark us as spam anyways. The bottom line is that we have very little control over whether we are or are not marked as spam.
So we want to start looking into sending text messages and this is where I start to question how good of an idea this is.
First off, if it was me, and the messages where being sent to a device that my employer did not provide, I would in no way want work related text messages coming to me. Unless there is a vested interest in getting them. IE, I'm the boss at this place and am always on the clock. What if you are on the bottom? It's just a job for you.
What if it is a pre-paid device, text messages cost money. What then? What if they don't even have, or want a cell phone?
The short of it is this. If I'm at a job that is just another job, and this employer tells me that I have to get these messages. I'm going to look for another job. I see the organizations having continuous issues and complaints from their employees. Thus us as a business having issues keeping clients.
What am I getting into here? What are your opinions on this matter? What are your recommendations as to alerting users of something on our site that we can rest assured are being received 100% of the time?
Thanks!

Hi there, As the question says i tried several things but i can't work it out and my knowledge about php isn't that well. i need help trying to get this delete feature to work its not deleting from the database (by the way i took out my database names and passwords at the top of the file) is it possible someone could help me, ive been working on this for like a week and cant figure out the problem. thanks! you can email me at spr_spng@yahoo.com picture 2.png is showing what it looks like Code: [Select] <?php $host="localhost"; // Host name $username="username"; // Mysql username $password="password"; // Mysql password $db_name="database_name"; // Database name $tbl_name="table_name"; // Table name // Connect to server and select databse. mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB"); $sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name"; $result=mysql_query($sql); $count=mysql_num_rows($result); ?> <style> /*table affects look of the whole table look */ table { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border: 1px solid #330000; border-collapse:collapse; width:70%; border-width: 5px 5px 5px 5px; border-spacing: 1px; border-style: outset outset outset outset; border-color: #330000 #330000 #330000 #330000; border-collapse: separate; background-color: #330000; #800517 f535aa #330000 school color #9A0000 school color2 #991B1E school color3 #CCCC99 school color4 #9A0000 } /*th is table header */ th { text-align: left; height: 2.5em; background-color: #330000; color: #FC0; font-size:1.5em; } /*td is table data or the cells below the header*/ td { text-align: left; height:1.0em; font-size:1.0em; vertical-align:bottom; padding:10px; border-width: 5px 5px 5px 5px; padding: 8px 8px 8px 8px; border-style: outset outset outset outset; border-color: #9A0000 #9A0000 #9A0000 #9A0000; background-color: #CCCC99; -moz-border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } </style> <table width="400" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td><form name="form1" method="post" action=""> <table width="400" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> </td> <td colspan="4" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Pick Which Rows you want to delete, Then press delete.</strong> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Id</strong></td> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Name</strong></td> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Lastname</strong></td> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><strong>Email</strong></td> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">delete</td></tr> <?php while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['id']; ?></td> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['name']; ?></td> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['lastname']; ?></td> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><? echo $rows['email']; ?></td> <td align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><input name="checkbox[]" type="checkbox" id="checkbox[]" value="<? echo $rows['id']; ?>"></td> </tr> <?php } ?> <tr> <td colspan="5" align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><input name="delete" type="submit" id="delete" value="Delete"></td> </tr> <? // Check if delete button active, start this // edited if($delete){ for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){ $del_id = $checkbox[$i]; $sql = "DELETE FROM $tbl_name WHERE id='$del_id'"; $result = mysql_query($sql); } // if successful redirect to delete_multiple.php if($result){ echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=delete_multiple.php\">"; } } mysql_close(); ?> </table> </form> </td> </tr> </table> Hi, I need to append a language session to a url and I am a bit confused on how to do it.
