PHP - Transformation From Procedural To Oo Code.
Hi all,
I work on a php project. I wrote it in procedural way. As project grows, it stating be harder to maintain obviously and I want to convert project ( or at lease key features) to oo code. My intention is to replace part which for example connects to database and then use the rest of the script and then move to another part write it in oo and replace old part. I wrote a simple class called Connection, just to handle connection. When I make object it connects, I retrieve some info from database using query as class function. However, there is no way I can execute my procedural login script after I made a connection object. And question is why? Do I need to write whole Database class to handle it? Can I merge oo and procedural php code together in once script? Code sample: Code: [Select] class Connection{ // database access paramiters var $host = 'localhost'; var $data_base = 'database'; var $user = 'user'; var $pass = 'pass'; var $con_handle; // constructing object with automatic connetction to db function __construct(){ $this->connect(); } function connect(){ // open a connection to the database server $this->con_handle = new mysqli ($this->host, $this->user, $this->pass); if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { echo("Could not open connection to database server"); exit; } // selecting database $this->con_handle->select_db($this->data_base) or die(mysql_error()); } } Code: [Select] //{ few includes here} $connection= new Connection(); //{rest of my login script} Similar TutorialsI am just wanting to know what the other forms of this type of conditonal would be, the type of if statement is as follows: if ($_POST) {print_r($_POST);} Just seen it a few times now, I know this means if $_POST exists. use the print_r() function to display the entire post array suber global variable. But what are the other combinations other than just if true? Like how are they used like this, like if I wanted to see if a random variable is not identical to another etc. Any helps appreciated, Jez. I am making a space game. The game requires a map. The map needs to contain one or more galaxies. Each galaxy should have from 100 to 1000 star systems. Each star system needs to possess a random number of planets from 1-10. I suspect that I can use while loops to control the number of galaxies star systems and planets, but I need to know how to assign coordinates when making the universe. This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=321234.0 Folks,
Look what I found he My procedural style code is this alongside their OOP:
<?php
if (!$conn)
{
$error = mysqli_connect_error();
$errno = mysqli_connect_errno();
print "$errno: $error\n";
exit();
}
// Get the total number of records from our table "students".
$total_pages = $conn->query('SELECT * FROM browsing_histories')->num_rows; //I NEED HELP TO SUBSTITUTE THIS TO PROCEDURAL STYLE
// Check if the page number is specified and check if it's a number, if not return the default page number which is 1.
$page = isset($_GET['page']) && is_numeric($_GET['page']) ? $_GET['page'] : 1;
// Number of results to show on each page.
$num_results_on_page = 5;
// if ($stmt = $conn->prepare('SELECT * FROM following_histories ORDER BY id LIMIT ?,?')) {
if($query = "SELECT id,date_and_time,query_type,followed_word,query_string,browsed_page_original,browsed_page_converted,referral_page_original,referral_page_converted,username,gender,age_range,date_of_birth,skin_complexion,height,weight,sexual_orientation,religion,education,profession,marital_status,working_status,country_of_birth,home_town,home_neighbourhood,home_borough,home_council,home_city,home_county,home_district,home_region,home_state,home_country FROM browsing_histories WHERE username = ? ORDER BY id LIMIT ? OFFSET ?"){ //my substitution of above line
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($conn,$query); //MY SUBSTITUTION OF ABOVE LINE
// Calculate the page to get the results we need from our table.
$calc_page = ($page - 1) * $num_results_on_page;
//$stmt->bind_param('ii', $calc_page, $num_results_on_page);
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt,'sii',$followee_username,$calc_page,$num_results_on_page); //MY SUBSTITUTION OF ABOVE LINE
//$stmt->execute();
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt); //MY SUBSTITUTION OF ABOVE LINE
// Get the results...
//$result = $stmt->get_result();
$result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt) //MY SUBSTITUTION OF ABOVE LINE

Edited February 2, 2019 by phpsane Hi All, I have the following code which works fine:
$mysqli = new mysqli("server", "user", "pass", "database");
if($mysqli->connect_error) {
exit('Could not connect');
}
$sql = "SELECT customer_contactname, customer_companyname, customer_phonenumber, customer_emailaddress, customer_address1, customer_address2, customer_city, customer_postcode
FROM ssm_customer WHERE customer_id = ?";
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $_GET['q']);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->store_result();
$stmt->bind_result($ccontname, $ccompname, $cphoneno, $cemail, $cad1, $cad2, $ccity, $cpost);
$stmt->fetch();
$stmt->close();
however, when i use my dbconn.php as an include rather than the top section of this code, i get the following error: function prepare() on null The error references the following $stmt = $mysqli->prepare($sql); In my database connection file, i am using the following: $conn = mysqli_connect($db_servername, $db_username, $db_password, $db_name); This seems to be the issue and i believe i am mixing procedural and object based but not sure why there should be a difference here? when i used my database connection file, i do change $mysqli->prepare to $conn->prepare Kind Regards Edited February 4, 2019 by Adamhumbug
create table mimi (mimiId int(11) not null, mimiBody varchar(255) );
<?php
//connecting to database
include_once ('conn.php');
$sql ="SELECT mimiId, mimiBody FROM mimi";
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql );
$mimi = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
$mimiId ='<span>No: '.$mimi['mimiId'].'</span>';
$mimiBody ='<p class="leading text-justify">'.$mimi['mimiBody'].'</p>';

//what is next?
i want to download pdf or text document after clicking button or link how to do that Hi, I have some code which displays my blog post in a foreach loop, and I want to add some social sharing code(FB like button, share on Twitter etc.), but the problem is the way I have my code now, creates 3 instances of the sharing buttons, but if you like one post, all three are liked and any thing you do affects all of the blog post. How can I fix this? <?php include ("includes/includes.php"); $blogPosts = GetBlogPosts(); foreach ($blogPosts as $post) { echo "<div class='post'>"; echo "<h2>" . $post->title .

I know a bit about html and javascript, but almost nothing about php. My question is: How a can convert this html code into a php file, in order to send a variable value using GET Method and display this variable value inside the javascript code where says VARIABLEVALUE. Thanks in adavance for your help. hey gurus, i am a newbie php coder.. i am learning by example. what i am trying to do is write a piece of code which will alter 3 tables (user, bonus_credit, bonus_credit_usage) ---------------------------------------------------------------- the table structure that will be used is as follows: user.bonus_credit user.ID bonus_credit.bonusCode bonus_credit.qty bonus_credit.value bonus_credit_usage.bonusCode bonus_credit_usage.usedBy ---------------------------------------------------------------- so lets say, in bonus_credit i have the following bonusCode = 'facebook' (this is the code they have to type to redeem the bonus qty = '10' ( number of times the bonusCode can be redeemed, but same person can't redeem it more than once) value = '5' (this is the amount of bonus_credit for each qty) Now, I need to write a code that check to see if the code has been redeemed in the bonus_credit_usage table and if the user.ID exists in this table as bonus_code_usage.usedBy, then give an error that its already been used and if it hasn't been used, then subtract 1 from qty, add ID to usedBy and then add the value to the bonus_credit ----------------------- i have started the steps just to create a simple textbox and entering a numeric value to bonus_credit, and that works.. but now i have to use JOIN and IF and ELSE.. which is a little too advanced for me.. so i'd appreciate a guide as i write the code. if(isset($_REQUEST['btnBonus'])) { $bonus_credit = addslashes($_REQUEST['bonusCode']); $query = "update user set bonus_credit=bonus_credit+'".$bonus_credit."' where id='".$_SESSION['SESS_USERID']."'"; echo "<script>window.location='myreferrals.php?msgs=2';</script>"; mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); } Hi, I need to insert some code into my current form code which will check to see if a username exist and if so will display an echo message. If it does not exist will post the form (assuming everything else is filled in correctly). I have tried some code in a few places but it doesn't work correctly as I get the username message exist no matter what. I think I am inserting the code into the wrong area, so need assistance as to how to incorporate the username check code. $sql="select * from Profile where username = '$username'; $result = mysql_query( $sql, $conn ) or die( "ERR: SQL 1" ); if(mysql_num_rows($result)!=0) { process form } else { echo "That username already exist!"; } the current code of the form <?PHP //session_start(); require_once "formvalidator.php"; $show_form=true; if (!isset($_POST['Submit'])) { $human_number1 = rand(1, 12); $human_number2 = rand(1, 38); $human_answer = $human_number1 + $human_number2; $_SESSION['check_answer'] = $human_answer; } if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) { if (!isset($_SESSION['check_answer'])) { echo "<p>Error: Answer session not set</p>"; } if($_POST['math'] != $_SESSION['check_answer']) { echo "<p>You did not pass the human check.</p>"; exit(); } $validator = new FormValidator(); $validator->addValidation("FirstName","req","Please fill in FirstName"); $validator->addValidation("LastName","req","Please fill in LastName"); $validator->addValidation("UserName","req","Please fill in UserName"); $validator->addValidation("Password","req","Please fill in a Password"); $validator->addValidation("Password2","req","Please re-enter your password"); $validator->addValidation("Password2","eqelmnt=Password","Your passwords do not match!"); $validator->addValidation("email","email","The input for Email should be a valid email value"); $validator->addValidation("email","req","Please fill in Email"); $validator->addValidation("Zip","req","Please fill in your Zip Code"); $validator->addValidation("Security","req","Please fill in your Security Question"); $validator->addValidation("Security2","req","Please fill in your Security Answer"); if($validator->ValidateForm()) { $con = mysql_connect("localhost","uname","pw") or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("beatthis_beatthis") or die(mysql_error()); $FirstName=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['FirstName']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $LastName=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['LastName']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $UserName=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['UserName']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $Password= md5($_POST['Password']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $Password2= md5($_POST['Password2']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $email=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $Zip=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Zip']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $Birthday=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Birthday']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $Security=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Security']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $Security2=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['Security2']); //This value has to be the same as in the HTML form file $sql="INSERT INTO Profile (`FirstName`,`LastName`,`Username`,`Password`,`Password2`,`email`,`Zip`,`Birthday`,`Security`,`Security2`) VALUES ('$FirstName','$LastName','$UserName','$Password','$Password2','$email','$Zip','$Birthday','$Security','$Security2')"; //echo $sql; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } else{ mail('email@gmail.com','A profile has been submitted!',$FirstName.' has submitted their profile',$body); echo "<h3>Your profile information has been submitted successfully.</h3>"; } mysql_close($con); $show_form=false; } else { echo "<h3 class='ErrorTitle'>Validation Errors:</h3>"; $error_hash = $validator->GetErrors(); foreach($error_hash as $inpname => $inp_err) { echo "<p class='errors'>$inpname : $inp_err</p>\n"; } } } if(true == $show_form) { ?> Advance thank you.

It is able to display what marks each student have got for each module and session. Now look at code below, it is able to display modules and in those modules the sessions that link to those modules: Code: [Select] <?php if($moduleId != $row['ModuleId']) { //Module has changed if(isset($sessionsAry)) //Don't run function for first record { //Get output for last module and sessions $output .= outputModule($moduleId, $moduleName, $sessionsAry); } //Reset sessions data array and Set values for new module $sessionsAry = array(); $moduleId = $row['ModuleId']; $moduleName = $row['ModuleName']; } //Add session data to array for current module $sessionsAry[] = array('SessionId'=>$row['SessionId'], 'Mark'=>$row['Mark'], 'SessionWeight'=>$row['SessionWeight']); } What I want to know is how can I do something similar for course so that it picks out the right modules depending on the course it displays. There maybe some code that needs to be added in the function. I use this type of a code to send automatic emails from my website: Code: [Select] $headers = ; $headers .= ; $to = ; Click here to go to Google. ", $headers); I am having hard time figuring out how to do hyperlink on words (like here). If I do something like this: Code: [Select] <a href='http://www.google.com'>here</a> it spits out that exact thing out. Thanks you for your input Can I combine also HTML code in PHP function? For example, can a PHP function include HTML form and the PHP code to handle this form? If yes, this will make my main code much more smaller and readable. If not, is there a way to define an "external macro" like, which allow me to replace pre-defined lines of code with short alias? Michael Feathers coined the term Legacy Code as being code without automated tests.
Still however Legacy Code evokes a vision in me that it is code that is ugly, old, runs on mainframes, and is probably 3000 lines long, uses globals and questionable code practices.
But say we take this ugly nasty code, and put it very nicely under test, but without doing any refactoring, other than that necessary to be able to put it under test in the first place.
Now that code is under test. But it it still ugly. How would you call ugly code under test?
Would you make a differentiation between old & ugly and modern & pretty code if both are under test?
Hello Everyone I am new to php and indeed Web Development. After testing and Playing a bit, I can get the following code to work as two files, the form calling the *.php file to insert into the database, however, I am trying to create one html/php file that displays the form and then executes the php code to insert into the database once user clickes the button. Please can you assist me with the code? I have something horribly wrong and I cannot find it. Code: [Select] <?php> <html> <head> <title>Personal Details</title> </head> <body> <form method="post" action="contactdetails.html"><font face="Arial"> Call Sign:<br> <input name="callsign" size="5" type="text"><br> Surame:<br> <input name="surname" size="30" type="text"><br> First Name:<br> <input name="firstnames" size="30" type="text"><br> Known as:<br> <input name="knownas" size="30" type="text"><br> RSA ID No.:<br> <input name="rsaid" size="13" type="text"><br> Birth Date:<br> <input name="birthdate" size="12" type="text"><br> <input name="Insert" value="Next" type="submit"></form> </font><br> </body> </html> //php to insert data into table $callsign = $_POST['callsign']; $surname = $_POST['surname']; $firstnames = $_POST['firstnames']; $knownas = $_POST['knownas']; $rsaid = $_POST['rsaid']; $birthdate = $_POST['birthdate']; mysql_connect ("localhost", "jredpixm_testuse", "PHPDevelopment") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' .mysql_error()); mysql_select_db ("jredpixm_test"); $query="INSERT INTO personal_details (callsign, surname, firstnames, knownas, rsaid, birthdate)Values ('$callsign', '$surname', '$firstnames', '$knownas', '$rsaid', '$birthdate')"; mysql_query($query) or die ('Error updating Database'); echo "<p>Thanks, your information has been added to the database.</p>"; ?> Regards Allen Hi, this is my first time posting here. I am just delving into PHP and I am learning about foreach loops. I have written code in Notepad++ EXACTLY the way I saw it in a tutorial video I watched (I wish I could show the tutorial video to you, but it is on Lynda.com and you have to pay to watch) I attached the file with my code. The example 1 code works just fine. The example 2 code is the one that is not working for some reason. However, it worked for the guy that wrote it in the video, so I am not sure where I am going wrong? *The comments in green are mainly for myself, I explain things to myself so that I don't forget what the code does forloops.php 1.74KB 2 downloads I would appreciate some help. Thank you!!! How can I make sure that when I submit an new form and new ID (record) is created it is always 4-Digits. record 14 = 0014, record 225 = 0225. Thanks |
