PHP - How To Perform Location Based Searches
This is more of a logic question. I have built a beta version of my site and I am currently working on getting beta V2 out, but I want to implement location based searching of users (particularly with a google api integration). Aside from the API stuff, how do I perform location based searches on the backend. For instance, I have all of my users locations (city, state, country), but how can I say to grab all users by that state when that state is typed in or grab all users by that city when the city is typed in and the same thing for country? Is there anyway to set this up with a default radius too? So if I search for a town, I get a 20 Mile radius result? I really have no idea how to go about the dynamic look up match. Any good tutorials on this?
Similar TutorialsI'm trying to pull results from a database based on where the user is located based upon the variables $usr_lat & $usr_lng, and search for by a radius of x amount of miles/km (need to make it optional). I can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for on google so I thought I'd asked here. Any help would be appreciated.
I would really appreciate help and I hope my problem can be solved easily. I am attempting to display the date/time based on the user's location. I have installed the timezone.js plugin for help as well. Is there a way to convert the Jquery variable that displays the users timezone location and insert it inside the PHP date_default_timezone_set?
If there is an easier way to display the users timezone date and time please let me know otherwise this was the only solution I could find.
Thanks in advanced...
Here is my code

Now I want to direct the email to 6 different recipients based on the county they select. I got it to work with just two counties (cases). But my state has over 60 counties and I will be dividing by about 10 counties each. Is there a way to list 10 counties for each case? This is what I have. Code: [Select] switch ($to) { case 'County1': $to = "Joe@mysite.com"; break; case 'County2': $to = "Bob@mysite"; break; default: $to = "default@default.com"; } This topic has been moved to Ajax Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=352302.0 Hello everyone. First post here. very new to php and html. Im working on my uncles website which is a fabric store. I created a mysql database and a search to use. Im trying to make this a fulltext search because right now you have to match the pattern name exactly to get any results! And if somebody searches for the pattern name and the color they will get no results! In fact, if there is more than one search term, there is no results. -This is the first part where it counts so the pagination can be built- $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM rapatterns WHERE Pattern= '$keyword' OR Color= '$keyword' OR Fabric_Use= '$keyword'"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); -here is the query to get results- $sql = "SELECT * FROM rapatterns WHERE Pattern= '$keyword' OR Color= '$keyword' OR Fabric_Use= '$keyword' LIMIT $offset, $rowsperpage"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); Ive looked into full text searching, and ive created a fulltext index on the three columns being searched here. The problem im having is when I try to change the queries to fulltext searches I get syntax errors. -this is what i was trying to do- -this is the first one that counts for pagination- $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM rapatterns WHERE MATCH(Pattern,Color,Fabric_Use) AGAINST ('$keyword') LIMIT $offset, $rowsperpage"; -here is the second one to get results- $sql = "SELECT * FROM rapatterns WHERE MATCH(Pattern,Color,Fabric_Use) AGAINST ('$keyword') LIMIT $offset, $rowsperpage"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or trigger_error("SQL", E_USER_ERROR); Im wondering if I can get a little help with the syntax or if what im trying to do wont work at all. Go easy on me. I am extremely new to any of this. Hey guys, i'm new to this site and would need some help with coding. So i'm making a car part website which should has brand/model search. It's a dropdown search which will get the brand / model from database and should display all the parts for that exact model, from folder. Database structure which i have is id, master, name. ( Here's some pictures to clear out what i'm doing. http://imgur.com/a/7XwVd ) So the problem is that it does not get the images from folder named ex: *_audi_a3.jpg. And link to codes what have been written already.

One thing i noticed when i used firebug it gives error on category when searching error:true. Hope you guys understand what i mean here, and also all help is appreciated. And move this post if it's in wrong place. Thanks! Edited by aeonius, 17 October 2014 - 12:15 PM. Hi,
I'm using an example below regarding a whole URL. I'm looking for some conditional PHP that will display certain content depending on if the URL contains the word 'liz' if not, display else.
$host = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; if($host == 'liz-4.website.com') 1. Create a denomination program. See the example below. Input amount: 3897 1000: 3 500: 1 200: 1 100: 1 50: 1 20: 2 10:0 5:1 1: 2 2. Create a program that will compute the ideal age of a man's wife. See the example below. Input Man's Age: 27 Formula: Man'sAge/2 + 7 Your ideal Wife's age is: 20
Please send the Output as reply and please include the codes Edited June 14 by Given-kunEdit Hi Guys Sorry for the lame title but I have absolutely no idea how to word this. I have the following code which pulls message from a database: $messages_query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages WHERE id='$message_id' AND recipient='$username'"); $messages_row = mysql_fetch_assoc($messages_query); $sender = $messages_row['sender']; $date = $messages_row['date']; $time = $messages_row['time']; $subject = $messages_row['subject']; $message = $messages_row['message']; $recipient = $message_query['recipient']; echo $sender . "<br />"; echo $date . "<br />"; echo $time . "<br />"; echo $subject . "<br />"; echo $message . "<br />"; As you can see, it only pulls the data if id='$message_id' AND recipient='$username'. I wish to perform a die ("You are not authorised to view this message!"); if id='$message_id' or recipient='$username' is different. Example: The database reads id: 1 & username: user The data would be displayed if $message_id = 1 and $username = user. The die would be performed if $message_id = 5 and $username = user I hope that makes sense, iv had a problem trying to word it correctly let alone come up with a solution. Does anybody know what i could do? Thanks Hi every one, Here is the problem..

Hi , Presently we are preparing an excel for download report by querying to data base. We are querying to DB and looping through each result row and writing to excel. for 2lacs data its too much time. I found the time taken max in DB query and processing the DB data .

Hello, my name Rustam, do the work - PHP MySQL JS jQuery and Yii framework.
Quickly. Hello I have a question. I'm trying to perform multiple queries based off the results from a query. Is this possible ? $result = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM sometable"); for each id returned $result1 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM someothertable WHERE id=result from $result query"); Any help would be GREAT I am currently working on an application to schedule conferences. I have everything completed to create a conference including start time and duration. The problem I have now though is how do I monitor MySQL for the conferences that are created and perform actions when the duration of the conference is up? I was looking into MySQL events but those seem to be only internal events and are not able to execute anything outside of that. I was thinking about a infinite loop that queries MySQL and sleeps for one second but thought that this might be a lot of load on the server. Any thoughts I really appreciate it. I want to loop through a MySQL table, and perform a calculation based on the current row the loop is on and the previous loop. Say my table has 2 columns - Film_id and FilmRelease, how would I loop through and echo out a calculation of the current FilmRelease and the previous row's column value? Thanks guys I have got to this stage, but for some reason it's not printing out anything Code: [Select] <?php mysql_connect("localhost", "****", "*****") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("*****") or die(mysql_error()); $sql = mysql_query("SELECT FilmRelease FROM Films_Info") or die(mysql_error()); $last_value = null; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql)) { if (!is_null($last_value)) { print date_diff($row['FilmRelease'], $last_value) . "<BR>"; } $last_value = $row['FilmRelease']; } quick layout trying to accomplish Radio Boxes O O O O O O O SEARCH .............. -OK- OK is the submit button POST should be radiox (function to run) +search user select radiobox 4 and then searches xxxaaa then presses OK then POST PHP_SELF same page being used (index.php) im having an issue trying to get the radio to be selected with teh SEARCH then SUBMIT and RUN a function to perform with the DATA //later looking at trying to view it as the script in the backend is running rather then waiting for it BUT thats just me a google to find lol <?php if (isset($_REQUEST['search'])) { $search = escapeshellcmd($_REQUEST['search']); $command = '/etc/SCRIPT/BLAHLOG ' . $search; printCmd($command, true); } ?> <?php if radio3 SELECTED THEN $search = escapeshellcmd($_REQUEST['search']); $command = '/etc/SCRIPT/BLAHSQLscript ' . $search; printCmd($command, true); ?> <form> <div id="radio"> <input type="radio" id="radio1" name="radio" /><label for="radio1">BLAhscript</label> <input type="radio" id="radio2" name="radio" /><label for="radio2">BLAHTEST</label> <input type="radio" id="radio3" name="radio" /><label for="radio3">BLAHSQLscript</label> <input type="radio" id="radio4" name="radio" /><label for="radio4">BLAHTEST</label> <input type="radio" id="radio5" name="radio" /><label for="radio5">BLAHREAD</label> <input type="radio" id="radio6" name="radio" /><label for="radio6">BLAHLOG</label> <input type="radio" id="radio7" name="radio" /><label for="radio7">BLAHUSAGE</label> <input type="radio" id="radio8" name="radio" /><label for="radio8">BLAHNETWORK</label> <input type="radio" id="radio9" name="radio" /><label for="radio9">BLAH9</label> <input type="radio" id="radio10" name="radio" /><label for="radio10">BLAH10</label> </div> </form> <p> </p> <p><strong>Enter a site:</strong> <input type="text" name="search" id="search" /> <input type="submit" value="OK"/> (PUT IT IN THE SAME PAGE from the response of RADIO4 selected ---PLUS ----SEARCH) <div id="RESPONSE" style="width: 540px"></div> You would think the answer would be all over the Internet and easy to find, but it’s not. I have searched many times, and in all the multitude of search results I have still never found an adequate usable answer. The MOST you ever find is someone saying how easy it is with PHP, but they don’t tell you how, even when the person they are answering asks them (odd). You can be that one in a billion person who finally answers it for real and helps someone out. I have a simple HTML form with data fields first_name, last_name, email, phone, country, a few hidden inputs, and a single submit button, like so: (Please note: the method is GET, not Post.) <form action="https://MyDomainOnMyServer.com/MyPHPScript.php”> <input type="text" name="first_name" value="" /> <input type="text" name="last_name" value="" /> <input type="text" name="email" value="" /> <input type="text" name="phone" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="type" value="type123"> <input type="hidden" name="project" value="new123"> <select required name="country"> <option value="">Choose your country</option> <option value="US">United States</option> <option value="CA">Canada</option> <option value="GB">United Kingdom</option> <option value="Many More">Many More Countries</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Submit Form" /> </form> NOTE: Originally, the form action would have been: action="https://TheirExampleDomainOnTheirRemoteServer.com/TheirRemotePHPScript.php" name="form1234" Upon clicking the single submit button only, what I need to have happen is this: 1. Send me an email to whatever@whatever.tld containing all the form submission data 2. Place the form submission data into a MySQL database having the corresponding data fields 3. Send the form submission contents including the hidden input values to "https://TheirExampleDomainOnTheirRemoteServer.com/TheirRemotePHPScript.php" name="form1234" AS IF that had remained set as the original form action to begin with So basically what I’m trying to obtain is the cleanest possible PHP script that will do those three things, which is essentially what others have asked for over the years in search results I have found, but no one has ever provided it in a clear instance that works. If I can just see such a script, I should be able to see how it works and then do what I need. Thanks. Reply Hi all. Here is my scripts which allow user to check multiple rows of data and delete it , but it require select data and click for twice to delete the rows , what should be the error?
