PHP - Converting Dates From The Database In While Loop

Hi,

I'm trying to get the date, using this code


<?php
include('config.php');
$today = date('Y-m-d 00:00:00');
$nineyesterday = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', mktime(date("H") - (date("H") + 6), date("i") - date("i"), date("s") - date("s"), date("m") , date("d"), date("Y")));
$now = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$nineam = date('Y-m-d 9:00:00');
$ninepm = date('Y-m-d 18:00:00');

if ((strtotime($now) >= strtotime($today)) &&  (strtotime($now) <= strtotime($nineam)))
{
//count the answers by yes or no
$q = "SELECT opt, count(opt) FROM plus_poll_ans WHERE date<='".$nineyesterday."' AND date>='".$nineam."' GROUP BY opt desc "; 
}
elseif ((strtotime($now) >= strtotime($nineam)) &&  (strtotime($now) <= strtotime($ninepm)))
{
//count the answers by yes or no
$q = "SELECT opt, count(opt) FROM plus_poll_ans WHERE date<'".$nineam."' AND date>='".$ninepm."' GROUP BY opt desc "; 
}
$q = mysql_query($q) or die(mysql_error());

//separate the results
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($q))
{
$total_opt[] = $row['count(opt)'];
}

mysql_freeresult($q);

$yes = intval($total_opt[0]);
$no = intval($total_opt[1]);

$total = $yes + $no;
        echo $total."<br/>";
        echo $yes."<br/>";
        echo $no."<br/>";
?>


but it didn't work, why isn't it working?

Thanks

Hi, i'm basically having problems with this code, its for a newsletter script which added the email address into a file, i'm trying to convert it to work with mysql but having a few problems;

I've edited the last bit, the code just basically doesn't add it to the database even though i thought i had done it right...

any help is very much appreciated!

If email is not valid the script is letting me know; if email is valid it says "already added to the list" no matter what.

Say I have two functions that convert from Dollar to Cents and Cents to Dollar.

function convertToDollar($value) {
    $amount = $value / 100;
    return $amount;
}

function convertToCents($value) {
    $amount = $value * 100;
    return $amount;
}

Currently I convert all the Dollar amounts to cents and store the cents in the mysql database column. When I showcase those amounts on a page, I simply convert the Cents back to Dollar.

Am I doing this correctly or is there a better way to store product pricing in mysql table?

Hi All,

I need to subtract dates and display the number of days left.  I have a 'Start' date and an 'End' date in DATETIME format in the DB.  Not quite sure where to start.  A simply start - end doesn't work  .

Start = 2011-11-01-00:00:00
End = 2011-11-30-23:59:59

Since it is now 2011-11-27, my output should equal 3.  Any help is appreciated.

Hi guys,

I am trying to do a multidates events availability calender. The script below indicates todays date by highlighting an orange colour and also indicates the start and end date of the event highlighting grey colour on the two dates (The colour are link via css classes as shown).
Code: [Select]
//Today's date
$todaysDate = date("d/m/Y");
            $dateToCompare = $daystring . '/' . $monthstring . '/' . $year;
echo "<td align='center' ";
if($todaysDate == $dateToCompare){
echo "class='today'";
}else{
//Compare's the event dates
$sqlcount = "select event_start,event_end from b_calender where event_start ='".$dateToCompare."' AND event_end='".$dateToCompare."'";
$noOfEvent = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query($sqlcount));
if($noOfEvent >= 1){
echo "class='event'";
}
}
It works ok i.e. if start date = 01/01/2012 and end date = 04/01/2012 both date will be highlighted with grey colour. However I want it to also highlight grey on the dates between the 1st and 4th to show that then anydates between the 1st and 4th are not available and this is when I'm stuck.

Please guys I need help.

Thanks

this is my sql code
Code: [Select]
<?php
$query = "SELECT Player, 
                 SUM(GLI) AS 'gli', 
                 SUM(Goals) AS 'goals', 
                 SUM(Saves) AS 'saves', 
                 SUM(SOG) AS 'sog', 
                 SUM(Assists) AS'assists',  
                 SUM(CK) AS 'ck',  
                 SUM(YC) AS 'yc', 
                 SUM(RC) AS 'rc'  
          FROM pinkpanther_stats 
          GROUP BY Player; ";
?>
their are 11 separate players and i want to set variables $adam_glie and $tyler_glie equal to the glie column for that player(the player being the first part of the variable) and i dont have any idea how to go about doing this 

I can get the info from the database fine with this:

Code: [Select]
$sql2 = "SELECT 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
FROM ratestable
ORDER BY id ASC";
$stmt2 = $db->prepare($sql2);
$stmt2->execute();
$e2 = $stmt->fetch();
and display it with this:

Code: [Select]
<?php
  while($e2 = $stmt2->fetch())
  {
?>
   <input type="text" name="1" maxlength="10" value="<?php echo $e2['1'] ?>" class="rates" />
   <input type="text" name="2" maxlength="10" value="<?php echo $e2['2'] ?>" class="rates" />
   <input type="text" name="3" maxlength="10" value="<?php echo $e2['3'] ?>" class="rates" />
   <input type="text" name="4" maxlength="10" value="<?php echo $e2['4'] ?>" class="rates" />
   <input type="text" name="5" maxlength="10" value="<?php echo $e2['5'] ?>" class="rates" />
   <input type="text" name="6" maxlength="10" value="<?php echo $e2['6'] ?>" class="rates" />
   <?php
      }
   ?>
How do I update it to the database?

Code: [Select]
$sql = "UPDATE rates
                SET title1=?, title2=?, title3=?, title4=?, title5=?, title6=?
THE CODE HERE IS WHERE I AM STUCK....
and that's as far as I can get, need to use an array or foreach???????

Sorry if I repost my previous thread.

I hope somebody can help me.

Thank you

Hello forum.
I'm new here, but I've been reading and finding useful things for a while now.

I'm still new to PHP and I need a little help.

I'm doing a school project and I have some things I want to do, but do not know how to write it down in PHP.

I think I'll ask a lot of questions this week, and I hope I will get some help..

For start I want to ask this:

I've been using Code: [Select]
mysql_fetch_array() for doing loops and populating check-boxes. And everything's working fine.. but what I want is to control the actual loop by clicking buttons. Let's say first time a while-do is run, my check-boxes get populated from the database and every other loop the next data from the table is added.. pretty straightforward.
I want to be able to populate once, then click "next" and the new data to be added and so on..
Code: [Select]
<?php
$tema = mysql_query("SELECT * from questions")or die(mysql_error());

function answer1($string)
{
$string1 = explode("/", $string);
echo $string1[0];
}
function answer2($string)
{
$string1 = explode("/", $string);
echo $string1[1];
}

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($tema))
{
echo mysql_fetch_array($tema);
$tip=$row["tip"];
if ($tip==2)
{
$id=$row['prasanje_id'];
$question=$row['question'];
$answer=$row['answer'];
?>
   <label> <?php echo $question?></label><br>
   <input type="checkbox"  name="CheckboxGroup1" value="checkbox" id="CheckboxGroup1_0" />
      <?php answer1($tekst) ?></label>
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox"  name="CheckboxGroup1" value="checkbox" id="CheckboxGroup1_1" />
      <?php answer2($tekst) ?></label>
<?php
}
}
?>I want an alternative to the while-do loop..
Is it possible to do this?

Thanks!!

For some reason my for loop only seems to be storing some data in my fields, most of the time the data is not true but simply duplicating one of the entries. So instead of having a string of 1,2,3,4 for instance it would store all of them as 4. The entires are selected using fields in a multiple select box, in theory of someone choses 10 unique entries from the "Systems" category all 10 should be made into rows in the MySQL table.

Any idea why this is happening?

The form,

if ($type == "games") {

echo "<tr><td>".$name."</td><td><select name='".$name."_".$i."'[] multiple='multiple'><option value='' selected>--------</option>";

$sqla = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".$pre."games ORDER BY `name` ASC") or die(mysql_error());

while($row2a = mysql_fetch_array($sqla)) {
$system = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".$pre."systems WHERE id = '".$row2a[system]."'"));
echo "<option value='".$row2a[id]."'>".$row2a[name]." - ".$system[name]."</option>";
}
echo "</select></td></tr>";
}

if ($type == "system") {
echo "<tr><td>".$name."</td><td><select name='".$name."_".$i."'[] multiple='multiple'><option value='' selected>--------</option>";

$sqlb = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".$pre."systems ORDER BY `name` ASC") or die(mysql_error());
while($row2b = mysql_fetch_array($sqlb)) {
echo "<option value='".$row2b[id]."'>".$row2b[name]."</option>";
}
echo "</select></td></tr>";
}

The PHP code,

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$name = "$row[name]";

for ($i = 0; $i < count($_POST["systems_$i"]); $i++) {
   mysql_query("INSERT INTO ".$pre."fielddata VALUES (null, 'systems', '".$_POST["systems_$i"]."', '".$fetch[0]."', 'content')");
}

for ($i = 0; $i < count($_POST["games_$i"]); $i++) {
   mysql_query("INSERT INTO ".$pre."fielddata VALUES (null, 'games', '".$_POST["games_$i"]."', '".$fetch[0]."', 'content')");
}

Hi there!
On a page of mine, random tables get generated. The tables consist of 8 characters, so there's 5 . 10^13 possibilities. Yet ofcourse there is a possibility that 2 tables with the same name can be generated, which ofcourse is not desired. So I need an adjustment that can see whether there is already a name that's the same, and if so, make another random name. And if that one also exists, make a new one again. Untill the name doesn't exist yet and it remains.

Here's the script I have right now:

function createName($length) 
{
$chars = "abcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
$i = 0;
$password = "";
while ($i <= $length) 
{
$password .= $chars{mt_rand(0,strlen($chars))};
$i++;
}
return $password;
}
 
$name = createName(8);

mysql_select_db($database, $con);

$sql = "CREATE TABLE " . $name . "(
id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, 
PRIMARY KEY(id),
devraag varchar(500),
weergave varchar(500),
naam varchar(500),
inhoud varchar(500),
tijd varchar(100))";
mysql_query($sql, $connection)or die(mysql_error());


I'm not goot with the combination of PHP and mysql, and really have no Idea how to do this.

Any help?

Hi..

I need help in using for loop in saving data from while loop.

Now, I encountered that the Demanded Qty was get only is the last Demanded Qty and save it to all Items.

I want to happen is per Items will save the Demanded Qty.

for example:
Items Demanded Qty
P28 ---1
P28 ---1
P28 ---1
P30 ---2
P30 ---2
P30 ---2
and so on..

I attach my sample form and the data save in database.

Thank you so much

Is it possible to use for loop to insert values into database using for loop?
Or what would be the another way to insert these values into the database if the number of values being entered differs from one time to another? Here is basically what I am trying to do:
mysql_query("INSERT INTO MaxMillionsNum SET
Day='$weekday',
DrawDate='$CompleteDate',
DateTime='$timestamp',
for($i=1; $i<=$SetNumber; $i+=1){
for($j=0; $j<7; j+=1){
$NumberName="Number".$i.$v[$j];//Generating name of database field
$$NumberName=$Match[0][$j];//Here I would store the $Match value into the fieldname name created above
}
}
Tries='$RunCounter'");

Hello everyone,

Let's say I am connecting to a database using PDO (I am excluding prepared statements for the sake of simplicity):
try 
{
$conn = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=cms', 'root', 'password');
$result = $conn->query('SELECT * FROM news');
} 
catch (PDOException $e) 
{
echo 'Error: '.$e->getMessage();
exit;
}


So far I been using the following to manipulate the data in object form:
while ($row = $result->fetchObject()) {
echo $row->title;
echo $row->text;
}

My question is, is there a better way?

What is the foreach code equivalent to that? I have had no luck keeping the data in object form using foreach statements.

Which method is faster, while or foreach?

Thank you, any suggestions are highly appreciated.
