PHP - Get File And Echo Text

I have an edit page but whenever I click edit the pathname of the original file is not in the file box so everytime I hit the save button , it will be considered as no file so my previous image or file will be overwritten by "nothing".

Ok, here's my code: How do i make it so that it outputs a maximum of only 5 results from the query where the img file exists. When I add LIMIT to the sql query it doesnt work so I guess its something else, but I have no clue. Can anyone help?


$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE date >= '$now' ORDER BY max(date) desc");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {
$cid = $row['cat_id'];
$title = $row['name'];
$seoname = $row['seourl'];

$img = 'images/'.$seoname.'.jpg';
if (!file_exists($img)) {
$img = '';
} else {
$img = 'images/'.$seoname.'.jpg';
}

if (!empty($img)) {
echo '<a href="images/'.$seoname.'/"><img src="'.$img .'" style="width:528px;" alt="" /></a>' . "\n";
}
}


Thanks.

Hi    I echo out images from a folder. The problem is that I have a html file in the same folder but I don't want to echo that out. How can I write my code to get rid of the html in the output?   Here my code:

<?php 
$filetype = '*.html';
$dirname = substr('$filetype');
$i=0;
if (isset($_POST['submit2']))
{
  //get the dir from POST
  $selected_dir = $_POST['myDirs'];
  //now get the files from within the selected dir and echo them to the screen
  foreach(glob($selected_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . '*') as $dirname)
  {
    echo substr($dirname, 0, -4);
    echo '<img src="'.$dirname.'" />';
    echo "<label><div class=\"radiobt\"><input type='radio' name='radio1' value='$i'/></div></label>";
  }
}
?>

P.S. when I echo out : substr($dirname, 0, -4); I want to get ride of the html filename there too. How can I do so something like this?

Hi    I want to echo out something when I post the value of a radio button and this value matches the same name of a html file. How can I formulate my code to achieve that?     What I have so far:

 <?php  
 
   if (isset($_POST['submitradio']))
{ 
    $selected_dir = $_POST['radio1'];

  echo substr($selected_dir, 0, -4);
  echo '<img src="'.$selected_dir.'" />';
  
} 
?>

So far I get for example the name of the image(order.gif) and the image order. gif.   What I now want is to formulate my code so that I can say if I have an image called "order.gif" and a file called "order.html" that I can then echo out some thing. I don't want to actually name the image or the html file. I just want to say if I have two different file types that start with the same name then I can echo out what ever. How can I do that?

I would aprreciate your help guys,

I have some problem when I want to echo out a text which is retrieve from my database and place it inside a text box but it stops showing when there's a space.
If I echo it out outside of the textbox, then there's no problem.

May I know how to resolve this problem.

Thanks

Hi All,

If someone types in my textarea without any hard returns, it echos the entire text on a single line, which expands my site very very far and screws up the layout.

how can I echo the text but limit the number of characters per line before I insert my own line break?

The code is just:

Code: [Select]
echo $message;

It works very fine, as you can see there is to links that is use to add some text in the textarea, where ever the cursor is.

Where it starts :
I have also created another form to modify the todo's once they are created.
The only problem here is that my 2 links for adding text to the textarea don't work at all, they do nothng, no error shown, no text added.

Here is the code use to modify the todos once created:




<script type="text/javascript">

        myField.focus();
        //in effect we are creating a text range with zero
        //length at the cursor location and replacing it
        //with myValue
        sel = document.selection.createRange();
        sel.text = myValue;

Ok i have been working on this for a day+ now. here is my delema

simple .ini text file. when a user makes a change (via html form) it makes the correct adjustments.
problem is the newline issue

1. if i put a "\n" at the end (when using fputs) works great, except everytime they edit the file it keeps adding a new line (i.e. 10 edits there are now 10 blank lines!!!!)
2. if i leave off the "\n" it appends the next "fgets" to that lilne making a mess

Code: [Select]
##-- Loop thruoght the ORIGINAL file
    while( ! feof($old))
    {
        ##-- Get a line of text
        $aline = fgets($old);
       
        ##-- We only need to check for "="
        if(strpos($aline,"=") > 0 )
        {
            ##-- Write NEW data to tmp file
            fputs($tmp,$info[$i]." = ".$rslt[$i]."\n");
            $i++;
        }
        ##-- No Match
        else
        {
            fputs($tmp,$aline."\n");
        }//Checking for match
    }//while eof(old)
   

what in the world is making this such a big deal. i dont remember having this issue in the past
I tried opening with w+, and just w on the temp file

a typical text line would be

some fieldname = some value

the scipt cycles through the file ignoring comments that are "#"


ps
the tmp file will overwrite the origianl once complete

all i really want to know is WHY i cant get the newline to work, and what is the suggested fix

EDIT:
i just tried PHP_EOL and it still appends another newline

I currently am working on a project where I code a "simple" telephone directory.

There are three main tasks that it needs to do:
1. Directory.php(index page) has a "First Name" and "Last Name" field and a search button. When a name is searched from the directory.txt file, it displays First Name, Last Name, Address, City, State, Zip and phone in findinfo.php in designated text boxes...first name, last name, etc.

2. From the findinfo.php, like previously stated, the users information is listed in the appropriate text boxes. From there, there is an update button that will overwrite the user's information to directory.txt if that button is selected. It will then say the write was sucessful.

3. (completed this step) From the index page, there is a link that will take you to addnew.php where you enter First Name, Last Name, Address, City, State, Zip and phone in a web form and write it to directory.txt.

 This is the php code for the third step:

<?php
$newentryfile = fopen("directory.txt", "a+");
$firstname = $_POST['fname'];
$lastname = $_POST['lname'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$state = $_POST['state'];
$zip = $_POST['zip'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$newentry = "$firstname $lastname\n\r $address\n\r $city, $state $zip\n\r $phone\n\r";
if (flock($newentryfile, LOCK_EX)) {
if (fwrite($newentryfile, $newentry) > 0)
echo "<p>" . stripslashes($firstname) . " " .
 stripslashes($lastname) . " has been added to the directory.</p>";
else
echo "<p>Registration error!</p>";
flock($newentryfile, LOCK_UN);
}
else
echo "<p>Cannot write to the file. Please try again later</p>";
fclose($newentryfile);

if(empty($firstname) || empty($lastname) || empty($address) || empty($city) || empty ($state) || empty($zip) || empty($phone))
{
echo "<p>Please go back and fill out all fields.</p>";
}
?>


So to sum it all up, what would be my best approach? I am totally stumped and not sure which function to use. Should I work my way from step 1 to step 2? I see it as when I do the search for the name from directory.php, it takes me to findinfo.php, listing the users information in the text boxes. From there, if I needed to, having the user's information already listed I could hit the update button to overwrite the new information to directory.txt. Doing the update when then tell me that the write was successful.

I have literally been scouring the internet for hours. What would be the best function to do this? I hope I was clear enough. Please help me out and thank you for your time.

Hi,

I am writing several scripts and some are used to amend extra information to a text file. However, I added a hyperlink to the text file so that the user can go back to a page where they can add extra information. However, since I have done this every time I amend more text to the text file, the extra text appears below the hyperlink rather than above it, and I was wondering if there was a way around this.

My amend code is as follows:

Code: [Select]
<html>
<head>
<title>Amend File</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" a href="rcm/stylesheet.css">
</head>
<?php

if($_POST['append'] !=null)
{
$filename="C:/xampp/htdocs/rcm/denman2.txt";
$file=fopen($filename, "a");
$msg="<p>Updated Information: " .$_POST['append']. "</p><br>";
fputs ($file, $msg);
fclose($file);
}
?>
<body>
<h1>Do you want to append to a document?</h1>
Enter Updated Information:
<form action="amendfile2.php" method="post">
<input type="text" size="40" name="append"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Add updated information to report">
</form>
<form action="viewfile3.php" method="post">
<input type="submit" size="40" value="View Web Blog">
</form>
<form action="loginform.php" method="post">
<input type="submit" value="Click here to go to the Log In Screen">
</form>
</body></html>

And my text file is as follows:
Code: [Select]
<h1>Accident Report</h1>

<p>First Name: Andrew
Last Name: Denman
Age: 18
Complete Weeks Since Accident: 2<br>

<a href="amendfile2.php">Amend to this file</a>

Any help would be appreciated

OK, have no idea what's going on... I've done this a million times... why wont this output!??
I must have a major brain meltdown and dont know it yet!!!

Code: [Select]
<?php

// this echoes just fine:
echo $_POST['testfield'];


// but this wont echo:
echo 
if (isset($_POST['testfield']))
{
$_POST['testfield'] = $test;
}
echo $test;


/// or even this DOESNT echo either!:
