PHP - Category And Sub Category Drop Down Form Problem
Hello,
I have been searching and trying all sorts of ways to get my sub categories drop down to show the correct info after selecting a category from the main drop down but im getting stuck. It's pulling the categories and sub categories from the mysql database fine but no matter which main category i pick it keeps showing the same result in the sub category. My brother said i need to use some sort of onchange do this so the sub category list refreshs but everything i have tried doesn't work.. PLEASE could some one help. MANY MANY THANKS This is the category form Code: [Select] <select name="job_cats" style="width:165px"> <?PHP $query1 = "SELECT * FROM job_cats"; $result1 = mysql_query($query1) or die ("query 1 failed"); $count1 = mysql_num_rows($result1); for ($i = 0; $i < $count1; $i++) { $row1 = mysql_fetch_array($result1); $job_cats_title1 = $row1['title']; $job_cats_id1 = $row1['id']; echo '<option value="'.$job_cats_id1.'">'.$job_cats_title1.'</option>'; echo $job_cats_id1; } ?> </select> this would echo this in the main category list: cat1 cat2 cat3 cat4 this is the sub category form Code: [Select] <select name="job_sub_cats" style="width:165px"> <?PHP $query1 = "SELECT * FROM job_sub_cats WHERE job_cats_id = $job_cats_id1"; $result1 = mysql_query($query1) or die ("query 1 failed"); $count1 = mysql_num_rows($result1); for ($i = 0; $i < $count1; $i++) { $row1 = mysql_fetch_array($result1); $sub_cats_id1 = $row1['id']; $sub_cats_title1 = $row1['subTitle']; $cats_id1 = $row1['job_cats_id']; echo '<option value="'.$sub_cats_id1.'">'.$cats_id1.'</option>'; } ?> </select> this should echo this: 1 2 3 4 but it keeps echoing just the number 4. THANKS PLEASE HELP ricky Similar TutorialsI have created a form which allows people to add data to a database. However, I want to replicate the form across several pages and give each page a category. For example, if I have a website based on sport. I have a page which enters information into the baseball category, a page which enters information into the ice hockey category, a page which enters information into the soccer category etc. Can someone advise how I would do this? I'm working on a business listing website using a Wordpress theme as the framework. Unfortunately, there is a limited number of categories with no option for a user to request a category. Below you can see an image of the form that users utilize to create a listing. http://postimg.org/image/5r8scqh8f/ Here is the relevant code related to that section: function aitDirItemTaxonomies() { register_taxonomy( 'ait-dir-item-category', array( 'ait-dir-item' ), array( 'hierarchical' => true, 'labels' => array( 'name' => 'Item Categories', 'singular_name' => _x( 'Category', 'taxonomy singular name', 'ait'), 'search_items' => __( 'Search Category', 'ait'), 'all_items' => __( 'All Categories', 'ait'), 'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Category', 'ait'), 'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Category:', 'ait'), 'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Category', 'ait'), 'update_item' => __( 'Update Category', 'ait'), 'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Category', 'ait'), 'new_item_name' => __( 'New Category Name', 'ait'), ), 'show_ui' => true, 'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'cat' ), 'capabilities' => array( 'assign_terms' => 'assign_dir_category' ) )); register_taxonomy( 'ait-dir-item-location', array( 'ait-dir-item' ), array( 'hierarchical' => true, 'labels' => array( 'name' => 'Item Locations', 'singular_name' => _x( 'Location', 'taxonomy singular name', 'ait'), 'search_items' => __( 'Search Location', 'ait'), 'all_items' => __( 'All Locations', 'ait'), 'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Location', 'ait'), 'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Location:', 'ait'), 'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Location', 'ait'), 'update_item' => __( 'Update Location', 'ait'), 'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Location', 'ait'), 'new_item_name' => __( 'New Location Name', 'ait'), ), 'show_ui' => true, 'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'loc' ), 'capabilities' => array( 'assign_terms' => 'assign_dir_location' ) )); } add_action( 'init', 'aitDirItemPostType');Website: http://reliablist.com I have made multiple attempts to try to create a 'Request a Category' button, but unfortunately have been defeated by my lack of experience. If I could get help in any direction, it would be greatly appreciated. Hi basically the category part of this script works but when i try the paginating part (next) it goes back to showing all of the categories so in other words i want it to stay on the same category when i click next. I tried passing the category through the url which ive kept in the code below and although the url does show the category im meant to be in, the code ignores it and shows the latest articles from all categories. I've been trying to figure this out for about 4 days and i dont really know where to even start since im completely new to php so thanks in advance for any help. Anyway heres the code: Code: [Select] <select name="sort_category"> <option disabled selected>Sort by Category</option> <option value="General">General</option> <option value="Music">Music</option> <option value="Funny">Funny</option> </select> <input type="submit" /> </form> <br> <?php include('admin/conf.php'); include('admin/functions.php'); if (!isset($_GET['startrow']) or !is_numeric($_GET['startrow'])) { $startrow = 0; } else { $startrow = (int)$_GET['startrow']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['sort_category'])) { $select_category = $_REQUEST['sort_category']; $connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die ('Unable to connect!'); mysql_select_db($db) or die ('Unable to select database!'); $sql = "SELECT id, title, content, photo, timestamp FROM approved WHERE category='$select_category' ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT $startrow,2"; $result = mysql_query($sql) or die ("Error in query: $query. " . mysql_error()); if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) { while($row = mysql_fetch_object($result)) { ?> <img src="http://trunham.info/pictures/ <?php echo $row->photo;?>" width="100" height="100" border="1" align="left" /> <font size="+2" class="style1"><a style="text-decoration:none" class="articletext" href="article.php?id= <?php echo $row->id; ?>" ><?php echo $row->title; ?></a></font><br><br> <font class="articletext2"><?php echo substr($row->content,0,100) ;?>...</font> <?PHP echo '<a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?startrow='.($startrow+2).'category='.($select_category).'">Next</a>'; $prev = $startrow - 2; if ($prev >= 0) echo '<a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?startrow='.$prev.'">Previous</a>'; ?> I do have the closing curly brackets later on and after this i also have an else part which runs if no category is selected and this outputs the same results that im getting from the pagination but i took it out to see if it was the problem and the paginating still wasnt sticking to the category so i assume it isnt. Here it is anyway: Code: [Select] <?php } else { echo 'Latest Articles:<br><br>'; $connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die ('Unable to connect!'); mysql_select_db($db) or die ('Unable to select database!'); $query = "SELECT id, title, content, photo, timestamp FROM approved ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 0, 5"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Error in query: $query. " . mysql_error()); if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) { while($row = mysql_fetch_object($result)) { ?> <img src="http://trunham.info/pictures/ <?php echo $row->photo;?>" width="100" height="100" border="1" align="left" /> <font size="+2" class="style1"><a style="text-decoration:none" class="articletext" href="article.php?id= <?php echo $row->id; ?>" ><?php echo $row->title; ?></a></font><br><br> <font class="articletext2"><?php echo substr($row->content,0,100) ;?>...</font> :shy: <?php } } } mysql_close($connection); ?> sorry if i haven't explained it very well. i dont really know what im doing Hi, im trying to echo some mysql data.

Thank you An array of "categories" is given: $categories = array( array("id" => 1, "title" => "Pants", "children" => array( array("id" => 2, "title" => "Boots", "children" => array( array("id" => 3, "title" => "Leather"), array("id" => 4, "title" => "Textile"), ), ), array("id" => 5, "title" => "Sneakers"), ), ), array( "id" => 6, "title" => "Sort", "children" => array( array( "id" => 7, "title" => "Balls", ), ), ), );
I need to write a function searchCategory ($categories, $id) that returns the name of the category by the category ID. Hope I am in the right area. I am working on a project which is sort of a business directory. I have a category table, a sub-category table then the actual account table. So a user clicks on the category, then selects the sub-category to view information of accounts in that category, and then be able to click to see the full profile. Here's where I am getting stuck. A user may be listed in more than one sub. As an example, let's say a parent is Cars, then subs might be New, Used, Parts, etc. Now a particular user might be listed under all three subs. How can I link them? I have my cat/sub linked via parent/child id's. However, how can I get the user to be linked to multiple subs? Would I need to create a separate table to do similar to parent/child of the categories? If so, then how would I insert the multiple id's into the table? I assume at this point that I would use drop downs for the subs. I am having a real hard time wrapping my head around this so any help is greatly appreciated. I have the following result that I am getting from a source. Code: [Select] SimpleXMLElement Object ( [CategoryID] => 1 [Name] => Other [Order] => 0 [link] => http://www.link.com?sub=1 ) SimpleXMLElement Object ( [CategoryID] => 1233916011 [Name] => ceramic [Order] => 1 [ChildCategory] => SimpleXMLElement Object ( [CategoryID] => 1234016011 [Name] => dish [Order] => 1 ) [link] => http://www.link.com?sub=13476 ) SimpleXMLElement Object ( [CategoryID] => 1233917011 [Name] => laminate [Order] => 2 [link] => http://www.link.com?sub=98247 ) I need to get it into a database with the following structure Code: [Select] id categoryID cName cOrder clink cparent By using Code: [Select] foreach($this->resp->Store->CustomCategories->CustomCategory as $cat) { $sub = $cat->CategoryID; $ord = $cat->Order; $linkto = "$stlink?fsub=$fsub"; $nm = htmlspecialchars($cat->Name); $par=$cat->ChildCategory->Order; $query = "INSERT INTO Cat (categoryID,cName,cOrder,clink,cparent) VALUES ('$sub','$nm','$ord','$linkto','$par')"; $result = @mysql_query ($query); // Run the query. } I can get Code: [Select] id categoryID cName cOrder clink cparent 1 1 Other 0 http://www.link.com?sub=1 0 2 1233916011 ceramic 1 http://www.link.com?sub=13476 0 2 1233917011 laminate 2 http://www.link.com?sub=98247 0 But I need to get the ChildCategory in there w/ cparent like Code: [Select] id categoryID cName cOrder clink cparent 1 1 Other 0 http://www.link.com?sub=1 0 2 1233916011 ceramic 1 http://www.link.com?sub=13476 0 3 1234016011 dish 1 1 <--- like this 4 1233917011 laminate 2 http://www.link.com?sub=98247 0 any help appreciated... So I am having some difficulties with a category system. I want my code to search the database an unlimited amount of times to the very last directory and then display it in tree view on my screen. I'm having some trouble because I am having to specify how many depths the code will search. How can I get it to do this on it's own? Currently my code does this... <?php // Establish SQL Connection. $mysqli = mysqli_connect( $sql['host'], $sql['user'], $sql['pass'], $sql['db'] ) or die( "DARN"); $query = $mysqli->query( "SELECT * FROM folders ORDER BY name ASC" ); $num_rows = $query->num_rows; echo "Found <b>" . $num_rows .

DB looks a little like this... +----+---------+--------+ Hi all. This seems like a pretty basic function but I can't work it out. I'm developing a WordPress site and want to list posts (products) by category. I'm using Advanced Custom Fields and have set up the taxonomy of 'category'. I just want to produce a heading for that category and then list all of the posts with that category assigned. Please see below functions.php excerpt and section-archive.php excerpt. Can anyone please help??? Massive good karma if you can. ----------------------- functions.php -------------------------------------- //Assign Category to Products
function taxonomy ()
$args = array (
}; ?> ------------------------- section-archive.php ------------------------------------------------ <?php if(have_posts()):while(have_posts()): the_post();?>
****** if product category= this ***** Category heading ****** Posts ******* Else ****** if product category= this2 ***** Category heading ****** Posts **** etc
<div class="prod-listing">
I'm not sure why but I copied the correct syntax from the wp codex page for it to display the date and title which it displays the titles for the categories however it only displays the date for the headlines category and don't know why. Any answers? <?php get_header(); ?> <div id="left"> <div id="col1"> <img id="lp" src="../images/lp.jpg" alt="Latest Promo"> <img class="newslogos" src="../images/headlines.jpg" alt="DW Headlines"> <div class="mininews"> <?php //The Query query_posts('category_name=headlines'); //The Loop while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <h3 class="date"><?php the_date(); ?></h3> <h4 class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4> <?php endwhile; //Reset Query wp_reset_query(); ?> </div> <!-- End of main news div (headlines) --> <img class="newslogos" src="../images/rumors.jpg" alt="DW Rumors"> <div class="mininews"> <?php //The Query query_posts('category_name=rumors'); //The Loop while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <h3 class="date"><?php the_date(); ?></h3> <h4 class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4> <?php endwhile; //Reset Query wp_reset_query(); ?> </div> <!-- End of main news div (rumors) --> <img class="newslogos" src="../images/columns.jpg" alt="DW Columns"> <div class="mininews"> <?php //The Query query_posts('category_name=columns'); //The Loop while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <h3 class="date"><?php the_date(); ?></h3> <h4 class="title"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h4> <?php endwhile; //Reset Query wp_reset_query(); ?> </div> <!-- End of main news div (columns) --> </div> <!-- End of col1 --> </div> <!-- End of left --> <div id="right"> </div> <?php get_footer(); ?> Hi Guys, I've been using PHP for a few years now but for some reason I can never seem to get my head around arrays, basically I have a blog site that I want to show all posts that have been posted in public categories but ignore those in the private categories, I had the idea to put all the private category ID's into an array and use that to check against the posts, however my array isn't working out the way I'd hoped. This is what I have: $isPrivate = mysql_query("SELECT categoryID FROM mod_cat WHERE isPrivate =1") or die (mysql_error()); while ($isPrivateList = mysql_fetch_array($isPrivate, MYSQL_NUM)) { $ignoreList = $isPrivateList; } However this isn't working at all. I know its wrong I just can't work out how to make it right. This is the mySQL I want to use it with: mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS total_entries FROM mod_posts WHERE articlePosted =1 AND articleCat != $ignorelist") Could anyone please help me? Thanks in advance. hi i hv built a small posting system, i hv built few categories like this in mysql i hv these tables Categories table: id catname Post Table: id postbody posttile date catid so i am getting posts with catid for related posts like http://localhost/site/index.php?action=category&cat=1 so where $_GET['cat'] is 1 it display posts from that category 1, now what i need is when i post a new post i hv choice to assign multiple categories to one post, so a post could be in cat1 and in cat2 as well . please any idea how can i do that? i was thinking to make a new rows in posts table for each category and set it to 0 or 1 , and when i submit new post it will set 1 to those categories which i select upon writing post. but if i have like 20 categories i need to add more 20 rows in posts table. is there any other better way i can accomplish this?
