PHP - Need Help Re-arranging My Script?

I need help arranging a text blob into a table of where each cell is a letter, and the contents of the text blob must be arranged in the table according to what letter it starts with.

This is the query I used:
$gibs33 = mysql_query("SELECT name,anime_id,sort FROM anime WHERE popular='1' ORDER BY name ASC"); 
while ($gib33 = mysql_fetch_assoc($gibs33)) {
        echo '<a href="http://www.website.com/index.php?anime_id='.$gib33['anime_id'].'">'.$gib33['name'].'</a> | ';
        }

The text blob looks like this:

Quote

<a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=132">Appleseed (2004)</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=133">Appleseed: Ex Machina</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=219">Black Rock Shooter</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=2">Bleach</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=191">Bleach: Diamond Dust Rebellion</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=192">Bleach: Fade to Black</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=190">Bleach: Memories of Nobody</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=175">Brave Story</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=207">Canaan</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=24">Clannad</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=26">Code Geass Lelouch of the Rebellion</a> | <a href="http://www.narutosoul.com/index.php?categoryid=2&amp;task=series&amp;anime_id=206">Code Geass Lelouch of the Rebellion R2</a> |


I want to arrange this blob into a table like this:

#-9 A B C D E .Hack AppleSeed Bleach
Blood+
Basilisk Claymore D Gray Man Eureka 7
Elfen Lied F G H I J K Fairy Tail Gundam Seed K-ON Season 2

etc....


In the Query,
anime_id = number example: (189)
sort        =  First letter of the word, example (N)
name      = Name of the anime, example (Bleach)

Hi everyone!

I've been working on a php script to replace links that contain a query with direct links to the files they would redirect to.

I'm having trouble echoing $year in my script. Listed below is the script, just below ,$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $dbname WHERE class LIKE '%$search%'") or die(mysql_error());, in the script I try to echo $year. It doesn't show up in the table on the webpage. Everything else works fine. Any help wold be appreciated greatly. Thanks in advance.



<?php

Hello,

I stored a fsockopen function in a separate "called.php" file, in order to run it as another thread when it needs.
The called script should return results to the "master.php" script.
I'm able to run the script to get the socket working, and I'm able to get results from the called script. I tried for hours but I can't do the twice both 

My master.php script (with socket working):

Code: [Select]
<?php
$command = "(/mnt/opt/www/called.php $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] &) > /dev/null";
$result = exec($command);
echo ("result = $result\r\n");
?>

and my called.php script
Code: [Select]
#!/mnt/opt/usr/bin/php-cli -q
<?php
$device = $_SERVER['argv'][1];
$port = "8080";
$fp = fsockopen($device, $port, $errno, $errstr, 5);
fwrite($fp, "test");
fclose($fp);
echo ("normal end of the called.php script");
?>

In the master script, if I use
Code: [Select]
$command = "(/mnt/opt/www/called.php $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] &) > /dev/null";
the socket works, but I have nothing in $result
(note also that I don't anderstand why the ( ... &) are needed!?)

and if I use
Code: [Select]
$command = "/mnt/opt/www/called.php $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]";
I have the correct text "normal end of the called.php script" in $result but the socket connection is not performed (no errors in php logs)

Could you help me to find a way to let's work the two features correctly together?
Thank you.

hey guys im really just after a bit of help/information on 2 things (hope its in the right forum).   1. basically I'm wanting to make payments from one account to another online...like paypal does...im wondering what I would need to do to be able to do this if anyone can shine some light please?   2.as seen on google you type in a query in the search bar and it generates sentences/keywords from a database   example:   so if product "chair" was in the database whilst typing "ch" it would show "chair" for a possible match   I know it would in tale sql & json but im after a good tutorial/script of some sort.   if anyone can help with some information/sites it would be much appreciated.   Thank you

Well the subject line is pretty explicit.  I found this script that uploads a picture onto a folder on the server called images, then inserts the the path of the image on the images folder onto a VACHAR field in a database table. 
Code: [Select]

The script seems to work fine because I managed to upload a picture which was successfully inserted into my images folder and into the database.
Now the problem is, I can't figure out exactly how to write the script that displays the image on an html page. I used the following script which didn't work.


Code: [Select]

//authenticate user
//Start session
session_start();

       
        //Connect to database
require ('config.php');

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT* FROM images WHERE member_id = '".$_SESSION['id']."' AND image_cartegory = 'main' ");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql);
$imagebytes = $row['image'];
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
print $imagebytes;







Seems to me like I need to alter some variables to match the variables used in the insert script, just can't figure out which.  Can anyone help??

How would I go about making it to where,, I can tell the script to use a certain extension of php in the script like curl.. ?

Thanks

I have an application which runs on more than one server and need to launch one PHP script from another PHP script.  Since this is different than a function call I'm not sure how it's done.  I plan to include parameters in the URL I send and use GETs to pick up parameters in the "called" PHP script.

Thanks for sugestions

Hi,

I am trying to run two scripts on one page.  When I use just one script on the page they work however when I place both scripts on the same page one of them disrupts the other script.

This script prevents the other following script from working:

Code: [Select]
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
error_reporting(-1);

{
$query = "SELECT * FROM answers ORDER BY `aid` DESC LIMIT 0, 11";
}

$result = mysql_query($query);

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))

{

$answer = $row['answer'];
$aid = $row['aid'];

echo "
<div class='questionboxquestion'>
<a href= 'http://www.domain.co.uk/test/easy/answer.php?aid=$aid' class='questionlink'>$answer</a>
</div>
<div class='questionboxnotes'>
</br>
</div>
<div class='questionboxlinks'>
<div class='questionboxcategory'>
<div class='questionboxcategorytitle'>
Category:
</div>
 <a href= 'http://www.domain.co.uk/test/easy/furniture-category.php' class='questionanswerlink'></a>
</div>
<div class='questionboxanswerlink'>
<a href= 'http://www.domain.co.uk/test/oeasy/index.php' class='questionanswerlink'>Answer</a>
</div>
</div>
";
}
Code: [Select]
    <?php if($error) echo "<span style=\"color:#ff0000;\">".$error."</span><br /><br />"; ?>
    <label for="username">Username: </label> <input type="text" name="username" value="<?php if($_POST['username']) echo $_POST['username']; ?>" /><br />
    <label for="password">Password: </label> <input type="password" name="password" value="<?php if($_POST['password']) echo $_POST['password']; ?>" /><br />
    <label for="password2">Retype Password: </label> <input type="password" name="password2" value="<?php if($_POST['password2']) echo $_POST['password2']; ?>" /><br />
    <label for="email">Email: </label> <input type="text" name="email" value="<?php if($_POST['email']) echo $_POST['email']; ?>" /><br /><br />

Hey guys, so I was wanting to sell some source code on my website, but how would I do that. Is there some way to use paypal, when users pay X price they can download the zipped folder, and make sure there is some security to it so somebody just cant share the download link and let people that did not purchase it download it.

This code works: How can I execute this in one script tag? 

<script>

var urlParams;
(window.onpopstate = function () {
    var match,
        pl     = /\+/g,  // Regex for replacing addition symbol with a space
        search = /([^&=]+)=?([^&]*)/g,
        decode = function (s) { return decodeURIComponent(s.replace(pl, " ")); },
        query  = window.location.search.substring(1);

    urlParams = {};
    while (match = search.exec(query))
       urlParams[decode(match[1])] = decode(match[2]);
})();

	var a = urlParams["a"];
	var b = urlParams["b"];
	
	// var url = "http://example.com/tracker/"+ a +'/' + b;

	

	var iDiv = document.createElement('img');
	iDiv.id = '5050';
	iDiv.src = +url;
	iDiv.width = '14';
	iDiv.height = '14';
	document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].appendChild(iDiv);

	iDiv.appendChild(innerDiv);
</script>
<script>

   	 document.getElementById("5050").src ="http://example.com/tracker/"+ a +'/' + b;
</script>

Below is a Log-Out Script that I wrote...


<?php
// Initialize a session.
session_start();

// Access Constants
require_once('../config/config.inc.php');

// Log Out User.
$_SESSION['loggedIn'] = FALSE;

// Redirect User.
if (isset($_SESSION['returnToPage'])){
header("Location: " . BASE_URL . $_SESSION['returnToPage']);
}else{
// Take user to Home Page.
header("Location: " . BASE_URL . "index.php");
}

// Destroy Session.
session_destroy();

// Erase Session Cookie Contents.
setcookie (session_id(), "", time() - 3600);

// End script.
exit();
?>



Questions:
1.) How does my code look?

2.) Does it provide a secure log out?

3.) I don't think the cookie part is working, because after I click "Log Out" on a web page, I looked at the Cookie in FireFox's Web Developer Toolbar, and there is still a value for the PHPSESSID?!

Thanks,

Hi all, i'm working on a script which will allow staff members or "admins" to move users on a html table. Basically a user clicks on a cell within a table and there username is stored in a mysql database and  there username also appears in that cell and its reserved for them and other users cant take there slot. I use this for a seating plan for events.

I have made an identical table which pulls the same data from the database but is only availible to staff members but i want it so when a staff member clicks on a cell or "seat" it will ask them if they want to move themselves there or another user. Here is my code i have so far:

Code: [Select]
<?php require ("./auth.php");?>
<?php require ("../secure/connect.php");?>

Above has been edited down to just show the first 12 seats.

And heres my admin_seat.php so far:

Code: [Select]
<?php
session_start();
 
/* connect to data base */
require ('../secure/connect.php');

/* get the seat number */
$seat_id = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_GET['seat']));
 
 
 
?>
I want this script so that when i click on a seat it will ask me if i want to seat myself there, in which case it will place my username into that "seat" and remove anyone currently in that seat and reset them.

If i dont want to seat myself there i want the script to give me the option to place a user there, so i would need to list all of my registered users, ideally in a dropdown box (i will only have around 80 users tops) and then submit that and it will move that user to that seat and wipe there current seat if applicable.

something like this:

Code: [Select]
$query = "UPDATE seats_table set taken = FALSE, user_id = '0' WHERE user_id = '$user_id'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error());
$query = "UPDATE seats_table set taken = TRUE, user_id = '$user_id'  WHERE id = '$seat_id'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error());
the top line resets the seat back to default and availible for a user.
the third line is when a user selects a seat, it sets that seats "taken" to equal true stores there user ID and the seat ID.

any help with this would be great and also im not sure if its possible to list all of my registered users inside a dropdown box.
