PHP - Echo Not Working
echo will not print out a value. I do the simple string " " and it doesn't even do that. It's just blank in my browser. I use netbeans and firefox and chrome. Any idea as to what I'm doing wrong? Simple code snippet:
<html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> <title>PHP Testing</title> </head> <body> <?php echo "print me"; ?> </body> </html> Thanks for any future help.

This will work: echo $v4; But neither of these will: echo "<a href='test.php?v4=$v4'>Places</a>"; echo "<a href='test.php?v4=".$v4."> Places</a>"; It WILL work if I hardcode v4, like so: echo "<a href='test.php?v4=Utah'>Places</a>"; But that's useless to me, as I don't want to have to write 50 If statements for every database entry. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

I try to echo out random lines of a html file and want after submit password to whole content of the same html file. I have two Problems.
1st Problem When I echo out the random lines of the html file I don't get just the text but the code of the html file as well. I don't want that. I just want the text. How to do that?
for($x = 1;$x<=40;$x++) { $lines = file("$filename.html"); echo $lines[rand(0, count($lines)-1)]."<br>"; }I tried instead of "file("$filename.html");" "readfile("$filename.html");" But then I get the random lines plus the whole content. Is there anything else I can use instead of file so that I get the random lines of text without the html code?P.S file_get_contents doesn't work either have tried that one. 2nd Problem: As you could see in my first problem I have a file called $filename.html. After I submit the value of a password I want the whole content. But it is like the program did forget what $filename.html is. How can I make the program remember what $filename.html is? Or with other words how to get the whole content of the html file? My code: if($_POST['submitPasswordIT']){ if ($_POST['passIT']== $password ){ $my_file = file_get_contents("$filename.html"); echo $my_file; } else{ echo "You entered wrong password"; } }If the password isn't correct I get: You entered wrong password. If the password is correct I get nothing. I probably need to create a path to the file "$filename.html", but I don't know exactly how to do that. Hi Freaks, You guys helped me yesterday & now I have expanded on what I was doing & now need more help. From my limited knowledge I'm trying to add theses strings together. (I'm a printer) Its all adding up correctly until the end. *$row['markup'] is only multiplying the last string and not the complete echo...I have indicated the last string in blue. <?php echo ($row['laminating']*$row['qty'])+($row['Stock1']*$row['qty'])+($row['cutting']+$row['production']+$row['additional']+$row['pluscover']+$row['selfcover'])*$row['markup'];?> What I need to do is add up everything in red and * by my markup value (12%) <?php echo ($row['laminating']*$row['qty'])+($row['Stock1']*$row['qty'])+($row['cutting']+$row['production']+$row['additional']+$row['pluscover']+$row['selfcover'])*$row['markup'];?> any help would be appreciated! cuzzmunger Hi, I can't figure out how to echo <br/> after 14 characters every line from text. Any idea's? Cyto Hi freaks, Yes im a noob... I have some data in a db that im echoing out, but the last row wont multiply? The rest works great... I have tried having the data as the following: 1.12 or 0.12 & I have tried having it as a var. Do I need to have a % in there somewhere? Im adding up all the data then I want to multiply by 12% (*$row['markup']) <?php echo $row['Stock1']*$row['qty']+$row['cutting']+$row['production']+$row['additional']+$row['pluscover']+$row['selfcover']*$row['markup'];?> any help would be appreciated. cuzzmunger. For some reason, I can only get 1 row to echo out when there are actually multiple rows in the database that should be echoing. Here is what I have: $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM boards WHERE boardname='$board' ORDER BY id LIMIT 10"); $post = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); echo stripslashes($post['message']) . "<br>\n" . " --- ".stripslashes($post['username']). " on ".stripslashes($post['time']) ."\n<hr width=90%>\n"; It pulls the one record great, but it only shows one record... I want to keep it to 10 records, thus the LIMIT in there (which I think I did right...), but it won't even show the ones in there right now (under 10, so that's not an issue yet). Hi, I have created a class "friendClass" and tried to echo it. It prints nothing without any errors, not sure what was it going on? Any helps would be appreciated! Code: [Select] class friendClass{ //attributes - variable public $name; public $sex; public $title; public $country; //methods - function public function eat(){} public function watch(){} public function drive(){} public function speak(){} } $friend1 = new friendClass; $friend2 = new friendClass; $friend3 = new friendClass; $friend4 = new friendClass; $friend1 -> name = "Bach"; $friend1 -> title = "Muscian"; $friend1 -> sex = "Male"; $friend1 -> country = "Germany"; $friend1 -> eat("Bread"); $friend1 -> speak("German"); $friend1 -> drive("Horse"); $friend1 -> watch("Beethoven"); echo "Name is: ".$friend1->name; Hi all, I have a page which simply pulls info from a database by id: <?php include ('connect.php'); $id = $_GET['id']; $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM JOBS WHERE id=$id"); if (!$query) { echo "Could not run query: " . mysql_error(); exit; } $row = mysql_fetch_row($query); { echo "<body><h3>" . $row[1]. "</h3>"; echo "<h4>" . $row[2] . "</h4>"; echo "<h4>" . $row[3] . "</h4>"; echo "<h5>Duties & Responsibilities:</h5><ul>"; echo "<li><strong>" . $row[4] . "</strong>" . $row[5] . "</li>"; echo "<li><strong>" . $row[6] . "</strong>" . $row[7] . "</li>"; echo "<li><strong>" . $row[8] . "</strong>" . $row[9] . "</li>"; echo "<li><strong>" . $row[10] . "</strong>" . $row[11] . "</li>"; } ?> However in some cases the rows in the database may only contain data upto row 6 for example, how would I go about coding this so that it only displays rows that exist. If row 6 exists then 7 always will too as the information is connected. I am manually added this stuff into phpmyadmin as I do not need a form as once it is complete then it will not need to be added to. Also row 8 and 9 may contain data but 6 and 7 may not Many Thanks How do I echo the day from the db? It just displays day and I want it to display the day that was set. <select name="date_of_birth" id="date_of_birth"> <option value="">Day</option> <?php $isset = isset($_POST['date_of_birth']); for($day = 1; $day <= 31; ++$day) { echo '<option'; if ($isset && $_POST['date_of_birth'] === $day) { echo ' selected="selected"'; } echo ">${day}</option>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t"; } ?> </select> |
