PHP - Concatenated Php String Into Mysql
here i am again...
so i have this algorithm that computes the current academic year for our school.. it outputs the correct academic year on a browser.. but when i try to insert it into my database, the data inserted goes wrong.. it just keeps on inserting -1 instead of the string 2011-2012 here's my code: Code: [Select] <?php $year = date('Y'); $currentyear = $year; $lastyear = $year - 1; $nextyear = $year + 1; if (date('m') < 6) { $current_ay = $lastyear."-".$currentyear; } else if (date('m') >= 6) { $current_ay = $currentyear."-".$nextyear; } echo $current_ay; $insertSQL = "INSERT INTO tbl_elections (election_id) values ($current_ay)"; mysql_select_db($database_organizazone_db, $organizazone_db); $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $organizazone_db) or die(mysql_error()); ?> *the database column to be inserted into is of varchar data type Similar TutorialsI'm not sure if this is possible
Previously I had a problem of outputting rows of a specific query
This was the solution that was given to me
$txt .= $date . " " . $stratoparse . "\n\n";Where a while loop's results were concatenated to a single string What I would like to do is output the results in individual containers with controls such as dragging for repositioning / an x for deletion That's not what I'm here for in this post I want to embed youtube videos, so they are not just stored as links, rather a clickable video so if you have something like string.string2.string3.string4.string5.<iframe src="youtube"...>.string7.string8 how would that video be isolated and parsed / understood as a front end youtube video ? To provide a brief background in case you are wondering why in my right mind, I would want to do this... First it is the primary solution that comes to mind going off what already works Secondly, the purpose or point of the concatenated string comes from the "application" design which is a store and recall interface. Vague, I know. The website has multiple users and they all have access to a single database. They save random strings, whether they are paragraphs or links, possibly videos that are uploaded, etc... these are saved by a keyphrase, later recalled by searching that keyphrase. Currently the output is nothing more than a concatenated string, that was fine initially but some of my friends have been testing the website and they made suggestions which are good such as repositioning and deleting entries. Now I want to automatically parse youtube links into embedded videos... I'll probably use that explode "function" to disect the link and place the url within the src=" " Anyway, I have to look into this but if anyone has any thoughts I'd appreciate it.

This is a LINK to the page -> http://shoutkey.com/carriage I have a problem of separating MySQL concatenated info, yet still maintaining their relationship to other arrays in the same order. First off here is the MySQL code: Code: [Select] $query ="SELECT report,"; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT docID) AS docIDs, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT analyst) AS analysts, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT region) AS regions, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT country) AS countries, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT topic) AS topics, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT date) AS dates, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT event) AS events, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT link) AS links, "; $query.="GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT province) AS provinces "; $query.="FROM reports GROUP BY report ORDER BY dates DESC, docIDs DESC"; The most important thing is to get all attributes about each report. The thing is, each report can have as many records as it must, in order to store various types of information, like, if multiple analysts are working on the report, then each one saves their own record, but when retrieving these records MYSQL concatenates the records, to make it look to the analysts like this Report 1 --- Josh, Rebecca --- Philippines However, my problem is trying to display the reports by country... as you can see http://shoutkey.com/carriage. I have no idea about how to split up the countries, while maintaining their relationship to the $rows pulled from MySQL. I am gonna post the entire code, and let me know if anybody has any ideas. Code: [Select] $result = mysql_query($query); $numrows = mysql_affected_rows(); $current = false; while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $dates = $row['dates']; $analysts = $row['analysts']; $provinces = $row['provinces']; $topics = $row['topics']; $regions = $row['regions']; $countries = $row['countries']; $reports = $row['report']; $links = $row['links']; $events = $row['events']; if (!$current){ //first call echo "<h3><a href=\"#\">{$countries}</a></h3>"; //echo first call $current = $countries; echo "<div>" ;//open content div } elseif($current != $countries){ // country has changed echo "</div>"; //close previous content div echo "<h3><a href=\"#\">{$countries}</a></h3>"; //echo subsequent countries $current = $countries; echo "<div><p>" ;//open content div } echo $analysts." ----- ".$provinces." ----- ".$reports; echo "<br /><br />"; } echo "</div>"; ?> </div> Hello. I have a simple enough code that takes information from one table and drops it into another. This is great, but I have 2a new complexities that I have been unable to code correctly. A. 'lastname', 'firstname' on table1 need to be combined into 'name' How & Where do I combine these strings and then pass them? Code: [Select] <?php include('dbconfig.php'); // Make a MySQL Connection mysql_connect("localhost", "$user", "$password") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("$database") or die(mysql_error()); $result = mysql_query( "INSERT INTO table2 (lastname, firstname, email) SELECT lastname, firstname, email FROM table1 WHERE email='someemail@gmail.com' ") or die(mysql_error()); ?> Hi, i have a syntax error on my query string but can't figure out what's wrong : $qry = "UPDATE members SET firstname = '".$fname"', lastname = '".$lname"', passwd = '".md5($password)."'

However, something must be wrong with the casting, because if there is a space in the form value, then I get an error, as in: //$_POST['string'] == '1blah 2blah'; sql = "INSERT INTO table (some_string) VALUES ($_POST[string])"; $sql_result = mysql_query($sql) or die ('The error is as follows: ' . mysql_error() . '<br /><br />Value could not be added.'); Then I get the following error: The error is as follows: 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 '2blah' at line 1 I've entered paragraphs into a database before, so this error is now to me. The column 'some_value' is a type: varchar(50). I have never used real escape string so want to make sure I did it correctly. Also, if I can place it anywhere else to make it even more secure please let me know. This is just the action of a just a simple POST html form. Here it is.

Hi guys, I have a very simple add.php to add data to a mySQL db. I have a menu/list drop down as one of my fields on my form and this shows an array of results from another table (ranks of the RAF) within my db. When I click the save button I have it process a INSERT INTO command but all i get inputted into my staff table is the first word... eg if I chose "Pilot Officer" from the list menu and then click save all that would appear in my db is "Pilot". Any clues? I will paste the php below...

"Staff Added":"Nothing Added"; } ?> Hello everyone. I'm creating a website that has a sort of messaging system built in and I'm trying to get the information pulled out of the database to display exactly as it was typed. For example, if someone types this message: "This is the first line. This is the second line. And this is two lines below the second line." (By the way, when I view this message using phpMyAdmin, the message is displayed in the above format.) I would like to have the message displayed the same way when it is queried from the database. As of now, this is what I'm seeing instead: "This is the first line. This is the second line. And this is two lines below the second line." How can I achieve this? I would post the code that I'm using, but it's just a basic mysql query to get a variable "$message" then I'm just using echo "$message"; to put it on the page. Any help to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Hi there, is it possible to join a variable and a string inside a $_POST variable inside a mysql query (UPDATE in this case) Here is what i am trying to accomplish: $update = "UPDATE mona SET STKFF='$_POST[$counter."NAME"]' WHERE id='$userid'"; if (!mysql_query($update)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } else echo " <br> Update Complete"; Its the '$_POST[$counter."NAME"]' bit that im worried about, is this possible without having to do: $foo=$counter."NAME" '$_POST[$foo]' Thanks Chris I am trying to pass in a $string variable into my query like so but it is returning a warning: Code: [Select] $string = "clientName == '$input'"; $input = "Sam"; $table_id = 'booking'; $query ="SELECT * FROM booking WHERE. '$string' "; $test = mysql_query($query); echo $test; Hi All, I'm working on PHP scripts to interact with a web hosted MySQL DB for an Android Application. Simply what I am trying to do is in the PHP script is run a SELECT statement which will return the value of a column, UserType, and compare the result of this to a string, which will then execute code depending on it's value. This user type can only be either 'student' or 'lecturer'. Any help with this would be much appreciated. <?php require "init.php"; $user = $_GET["userID"]; #Selects column account type where the idNum equals $user which is passed from my app. $sql1 = "select accountType from user_info where idNum = '$user'"; $result1 = mysqli_query($con,$sql1); $row1 = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result1); #This is where I am stuck. Simply, I am trying to run the code in the loop where the result of $sql1 equals 'Student'. The else will run if it is not #student and therefore is 'Lecturer'. I'm also not sure if my code inside the IF is fully correct either as it's not running that far. if($row1['accountType'] == 'Student') { $sql2 = "select courseCode from user_info where idNum = '$user'"; $result2 = mysqli_query($con,$sql2); $row2 = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result2); $sql3 = "select * from module_details where classListCourseCode = '".$row2['courseCode']."'"; $result3 = mysqli_query($con,$sql3); $response = array(); while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result3)) { array_push($response,array("moduleID"=>$row[0],"lecturerID"=>$row[1],"moduleName"=>$row[2],"classListCourseCode"=>$row[3])); } echo json_encode(array("server_response"=>$response)); } Thanks in advance. I want to perform a query which returns a subset of the fields in a table. One particular mySQL field is VARCHAR I have a query like this: $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE code LIKE '3%') ; It's my understanding this should return all values which begin with "3", but it only returns about a dozen of the values 3, 30-39, 300-399, etc. (It works with string fields, but this field contains numerals.) Any help appreciated. thanks, Tom Hi to everybody I need ur help because I’m trying to make a script in php to write the same data but with different date in MySQL depending on the splitting ($data06).... like a schedule...
For example if $data06 = annual and $data03 = “2019/01/01” programm must create in MySQL : 2019/01/01 2020/01/01 2021/01/01 2022/01/01 2023/01/01
if $data06=“half year” will create 10 date , increasing 6 moths ...
But I have a problem at finish of code switch ($data06) { case 'annual': $numrate = 5; $aumdata = "+12 months"; break; case 'half year': $numrate = 10; $aumdata = "+6 month"; break;
default: echo "error"; $sql = "INSERT into $nometb ( name, scadenza ) values ( '$data01', '$data03' )"; if ($conna->query($sql) === TRUE) {} else {die('ERROR'. $conna->error); }
//IMPORT NEXT AND NEW DATE $newDate = date_create($data03); for ($mul = 2; $mul <= $numrate; ++$mul) {
$datanuova = date_create($data03); $datanuova->modify($aumdata); $datanuova->format('yy/m/d'); $newDate = $datanuova->format('yy/m/d');
$sql = "INSERT into $nometb ( name, scadenza ) values ( '$data01', '$newDate' )"; if ($conna->query($sql) === TRUE) {} else {die('ERROR'. $conna->error); }
//HERE THERE IS ERROR $data03 = $newDate;
if ($conna->query($sql) === TRUE) {} else {die('ERRORE NELL\'IMPORTAZIONE'. $conna->error); } }
} }
}
How I can resolve ?

In php that kind of operation can be done with the explode function but I don't know how to use with mysql. Edited February 14 by jiggaI'm planning on storing RIPEMD-160 passphrase hash's raw binary data in MySQL as BINARY(20). Right now, I'm not sure if one of the following INSERT approach is more preferrable and more efficient: Approach (1) - Using mysqli::real_escape_string() ================================================= Code: [Select] $binhash = $mysqli->real_escape_string(hash('ripemd160', $passphrase, true)); $mysqli->query("INSERT INTO testtbl (Passphrase) VALUES ('" . $binhash . "')"); This approach saves hash() from converting raw binary data to hexadecimal format, but need to process and escape the binary string. Approach (2) - Using UNHEX() on MySQL ===================================== Code: [Select] $hexhash = hash('ripemd160', $passphrase); $mysqli->query("INSERT INTO testtbl (Passphrase) values (UNHEX('" . $hexhash . "'))"); This approach needs hash() to convert binary data to hexadecimal but no need for escaping the string and it put extra load on MySQL to convert the hexadecimal back to binary. |
