PHP - Viewing Data From Query

I am at a loss why my query is not inserting values into db. Even if I do echo $query or var_dump($query) there is nothing printed at all. All values are being passed successfully just not being inserted. I am getting 'Could not connect' but I do not know why. All connections are established and as a test I took this code and ran it on it's own with dummy data and it inserted the data fine. I can only think it has something to do with the $response_array.  Where am I going wrong. and would appreciate any help. Thanks

Code: [Select]
<?php require_once('Connections/sample.php'); ?>
<?php

session_start();

$new = 1;
$activity = 'General Contact Enquiry';
$mobile = 'Submitted from mobile';

$email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['GC_email']);
$company = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['GC_company']);
$position = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['GC_position']);

//response array with status code and message
$response_array = array();

//check the name field
if(empty($name)){

    //set the response

Hello,

I hope all of you are safe with your families.

Currently I am starting with PHP Coding and I am trying to do a simple query to MySQL DB using PHP but even when is able to bring the number of rows is not displaying the values in the DB.

This is my code:

<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$database = "mydbtest";
$username = "root";
$password = "root";
// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $database);
// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
    die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}
//echo "Connected successfully";
$myquery = "SELECT * FROM Country";
$result = $conn->query($myquery);
$numf = $result->num_rows;
echo "Number of rows " . $numf . "<br>";
if($numf >0){
	while($row = $result->fetch_object()){
		echo "Code" . $row->countrycode . "<br>";
		echo "Country" . $row->countryname . "<br>";
	}
 
	}else{
		echo '0 results';
	}

mysql_free_result($myout);
mysqli_close($conn);
?>

What is failing?

 

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Alright, I've spent over a week trying to fix this now - And Im getting frustrated! I asked at other forums, I asked co-workers and I asked friends-of-friends, and nobody can explain what happens. Let's take a look at this first:

$name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name']);
mysql_query(sprintf("UPDATE em_users SET name='%s' WHERE id='" . $in_user['id'] . "'", $name));

This will insert NO data on the Name field in the database. Obviously, I thought the $_POST variable wasn't passed correctly, but echo'ing it just before the query WILL show data. And as I said, I tried everything possible for the last week. Switching variables, adding static text on the $name variable instead of using the $_POST content (this does work). I used very very simple test data on the form, such as my name "Mark" or "test" and "hey". The query is correctly executed everytime.

The truely WEIRD thing is, if I ensure there is content in $name before executing the query it will work as expected everytime. Like this:

$name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name']);
$name && mysql_query(sprintf("UPDATE em_users SET name='%s' WHERE id='" . $in_user['id'] . "'", $name));

Of course I could do this, but I want to know why my code does or doesn't work + it's a lot of work to do for something that worked fine a week ago. It has spread to a lot of forms on my website that $_POST variables aren't processed correctly - and it happened out of nowhere. Even on codes that havnt changed in months.

I really need help on fixing this! This project has been in development for nearly two years, and without a fix it's pretty much lost

hi guys

Ive written this php to take in two variables from the http POST, the idea is that I can multiple devices submit temperature readings to the php script, the script then append the unix time stamp and then the the 3 variables - device id, temp and unix time are then stored in a mysql DB.

I can get the variables to present on a php page for debugging but I cant get the variables to be stored in the mysql DB.

See the code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

$unixtime = time();
// get device variables
$device_id=$_GET['device'];
$device_temp=$_GET['temp'];

/* 
//for testing purposes
echo "unixtime: " . $unixtime . "<br />";
echo "device id: " . $device_id . "<br />";
echo "device_temp: " . $device_temp . "<br />";
 */

// Make a MySQL Connection
mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("test") or die(mysql_error());

//mysql query
$query = "INSERT INTO temperature VALUES ('',$device_id,$temp,$unixtime)";

// Insert a row of information into the relevant device table
mysql_query($query);
or die(mysql_error());  

mysql_close();
echo "Data Inserted!";


?>

I cant see where Im going wrong to correct this, but as nothing is displayed on the page i believe I am not forming the query correctly?
- any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thank you
Mathew

I'm having trouble trying to separate the output into variables that I can use/echo on my page. when I do a print I see the two rows of data all grouped together how can I separate each result base on field and row? maybe something like $line['m_id'][0], $line['m_name'][0], $line['m_id'][1], $line['m_name'][1], etc...



$bio = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM soc_meminfo 
            WHERE m_id = '".mysql_real_escape_string($en['mm_id'])."'");
                             
if (mysql_num_rows($bio) == 0) call404();
while ($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($bio)) {
foreach ($line as $key => $value) {
        $en['b'.$key] = str_replace("\n",'<br/>',stripslashes($value));
        }
echo '<pre>';
    print_r($line);
echo '</pre>';
}

I've only been studying PHP for a week now and have come across this problem which I'm sure there is a simple answer to, but I just can't figure it out and would appreciate some help. I've spent far too long on this minor issue already!

I have a table which contains a list of products, in this case books, which stores the date when each new item is added.
I have a query that then searches through this table and extracts the 6 most recent additions.

Here is the code I have so far:

Code: [Select]
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY date_added DESC LIMIT 6");
$productCount = mysql_num_rows($sql); // count the output amount
if ($productCount > 0) {
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
             $id = $row["id"];
$title = $row["title"];
$author = $row["author"];
$price = $row["price"];
$date_added = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row["date_added"]));
$dynamiclist .= //My table showing the products
}
} else {
$dynamicList = "There are currently no Books listed in this store";
}
This works well when I need to display the 5 most recent products in a normal table fashion, one below another, on the page.

However, I want to display the products in a more personalised order. For example display the newest item in one section of the page and 3rd newest in another.

What is the best way to select an individual row from a query? To extract the details of the 2nd newest item to display in the header, for example.

Thanks for your help.

Hi guys, im trying to connect to a database and get the value for the user in the row called 'user_credit', if it equals 1 or more then i want to show the ''You have &pound; ....'' bit in the script.

Problem is nothing shows at all, even without the if statement. I have changed the value for me in the database so in user_credit the value is 100, which is more than 1 so it should appear. I have probably done something wrong. Any ideas?

Code: [Select]
<?
include '../admin/database/membership_dbc.php';

$r = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_name='".safe($_SESSION['user_name'])."'") or die ("Cannot find table");
while( $cred = mysql_fetch_array($r) ) {
if ($cred >= '1' )
{
?>
  <p>You have &pound;<? echo $cred['user_credit']; ?> available on you account,
    would you like to use it on this order?<br>
    <label for="credit"></label>
    <select name="credit" id="credit">
      <option value="Y" selected>Yes, use credit</option>
      <option value="N">No, save credit</option>
    </select>
  </p>
  <?
}
}
  ?>

Hi.
I am trying to get a PHP Query to refresh every 10 seconds. I have scoured the internet for days and could not find anything of much use. Plenty of Ajax going on (whatever that is) but the scripts were immense. I only want to refresh 7 lines of PHP Query Code.

Can you please tell me if this is possible?

Thanks in Advance.

I have a text box that I use to post comments and save them to my database. I can go to the database and the data I entered looks perfect but when I pull it out it all runs together.

 

This is how I entered it and the way it is in the database:

Hey phpFreaks, im having some troubles getting my script to work correctly and im also not sure if this issue is in the right section of the forum. but heres what i have going on.
I have a query result that displays a list of images with a checkbox and a couple buttons for edit and delete. everything works fine other than the checkbox stuff. I had it working when i was using a submit button, but i wanted to get rid of that button cuz it was only dealing with the checkboxes. so whats going on when using the checkboxes is that when checked or uncheck it would submit the form. It works to submit but its not submitting any data to the database.

heres what i got for code for this section of checkbox.
Code: [Select]
<?php
echo '<form method="post">';
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
foreach($_POST['id'] as $id){
$value = (isset($_POST['location'][$id]) && $_POST['location'][$id]=="0" ? '0' : '1');
$insert = mysql_query("UPDATE items SET location='$value' WHERE id='$id'") or die('Insert Error: '.mysql_error());
}
}
     $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM items")
or die("Query Failed: ".mysql_error());
$counter = 0;
echo '<div class="specialcontainer">';
 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
list($id, $item_info, $item_img, $price, $sale, $location) = $row;
if($location == '0'){
$set_checked = 'checked="checked"';
}else{
$set_checked = '';
}
if($counter % 5==0) {
echo '</div>';
echo '<div class="specialcontainer">';
}
echo '<div class="special"><img src="../images/items/'.$item_img.'" width="130" /><br />'.$item_info.'<br />$'.$price.'<br />$'.$sale.'<br />Slide Show: <input type="checkbox" id='.$id.' value="0" name="location['.$id.']" '.$set_checked.'  onchange="this.form.submit()"/><br /><input type="button" value="Edit" name="edit" id="'.$id.'" onclick="window.location.href=\'specials.php?action=edit&id='.$id.'\'"><input type="button" value="Delete" name="Delete" id="'.$id.'" onclick="window.location.href=\'specials.php?action=delete&id='.$id.'\'"><input type="hidden" name="id[]" value='.$id.' /></div>';

Ok so I am pretty good with mysql and performing queries to get the data that I need. However, I have a question for any of you gurus out there that may be able to help me with an issue that I always run into with certain types of queries. Say I have 2 tables like this:

Galleries
id name 1 My Photos
Gallery Photos
id gallery_id photo 1 1 photo1.jpg 2 1 photo2.jpg 3 1 photo3.jpg
Now usually when I pull this info from the database I have to do 2 separate queries in order to get the data and then link them so I would do something like.


<?php
//make the gallery query
$query = "SELECT * FROM galleries";
$results = mysql_query($query);

//setup an array for the galleries data
$gallery_data = array();

//loop through the galleries
for($i=0;$i<mysql_num_rows($results);$i++){
//add the gallery info to the gallery data array
$gallery_data[$i] = mysql_fetch_array($results);

//make the photos query with the gallery id
$photo_query = "SELECT * FROM gallery_photos WHERE gallery_id='".mysql_real_escape_string($gallery_data[$i]['id'])."'";
$photo_results = mysql_query($photo_query);

//setup the photos array
$photo_data = array();

//put the photos in the array
for($n=0;$n<mysql_num_rows($photo_results);$n++){
$photo_data[$n] = mysql_fetch_array($photo_results);
}

//add the photos to the gallery array
$gallery_data[$i]['photos'] = $photo_data;
}

//now to display it is like this
if(is_array($gallery_data)){
foreach($gallery_data as $gallery){
echo $gallery['name'];

//show the photos
if(is_array($gallery['photos'])){
foreach($gallery['photos'] as $photo){
echo $photo['photo'];
}
}
}
}
?>


So my question is there a way to get all of this data at one time. I know how to do multiple queries in one and to do joins but they can only return one row as far as I know of. The only other way that I know how to do this is by ordering them by name and selecting them directly from the photos table and then just getting the gallery name like this:


SELECT *,(SELECT name FROM galleries WHERE id=gallery_photos.id) AS gallery_name FROM gallery_photos ORDER BY gallery_id


Then I could just do one loop and see if the name has changed and if so to output the new name. But I would like to know if there is a way to get a second set of results as an array from a query so I could just select the galleries and photos all in one query. Any help is appreciated.
