PHP - Why Does It Return The Word Array And Not What I Want ?

I am trying to write a program that sends out a newsletter but I am lost at returning an array of emails. This is what I have

<?php
require("../PHPMailer/class.phpmailer.php");
include 'includes.php';
        $mail = new PHPMailer;
        $subject = $_POST['subject'];
        $text = $_POST['newsletterBody'];
        $unsubscribe = "<br /><br /><br /><br />If you would no longer like to receive these emails, please <a href='removeemail.php'>Click Here</a> to unsubscribe.";
        $mail->IsSMTP();                                      // Set mailer to use SMTP
        $mail->Host = 'localhost';  // Specify main and backup server
        $mail->Port = '465';
        $mail->SMTPAuth = true;                               // Enable SMTP authentication
        $mail->Username = '****EMAIL ADDRESS****';                            // SMTP username
        $mail->Password = '****EMAIL PASSWORD*****';
        $mail->SMTPAuth = true;
        $mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';                            // Enable encryption, 'ssl' also accepted

        $mail->From = '****EMAIL ADDRESS****';
        $mail->FromName = '****NAME****';
        
        $mail->AddAddress('****EMAIL ADDRESS****', '****NAME****');
        
        $email = getEmail("", $DBH);
        
        
        foreach ($email as $newEmail)
                {
                    $addEmail = $newEmail['email_addr'];
                    $mail->AddAddress($addEmail);
                    $DBH = null;
                }
        

        $mail->AddReplyTo('****EMAIL ADDRESS****', '****NAME****');
    
        $mail->WordWrap = 50;                                 // Set word wrap to 50 characters
        $mail->IsHTML(true);                                  // Set email format to HTML

        $mail->Subject = $subject;
        $mail->Body    = $text . "<br /><br /><br /> To unsubscribe to this email please  <a href='www.raven-consult.com/newsletter_remove.php'>Click Here</a>";
        $mail->AltBody = $text;

        if(!$mail->Send()) {
           echo 'Message could not be sent.';
           echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
           exit;
        }
        
        
        echo "Message has been sent <a href='newsletter.php'>Return back</a>";

?>

This is the portion of the includes file that you need to know. 

function getEmail($inId, $DBH)
    {
        if (!empty($inId))
        {
            $blogstmt = $DBH->prepare("SELECT email_addr FROM newsletter_emails WHERE id = :userId");
            $blogstmt->bindParam(":userId", $inId);
            $blogstmt->execute();
            $postArray = $blogstmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
        }
        else
        {
            $blogstmt = $DBH->prepare("SELECT * FROM newsletter_emails");
            $blogstmt->execute();
            $postArray = array();
        
        $results = $blogstmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
        foreach($results as $row){
            $myPost = new nlEmails($row['id'], $row['email_addr'], $DBH);
            array_push($postArray, $myPost);
        }
        }
    
        
        
        return $postArray;
        $DBH = null;
    }
 
class nlEmails {
    public $id;
    public $email;
    
    function __construct($inId=null, $inEmail=null, $DBH)
    {
        if(!empty($inId))
        {
            $this->id = $inId;
        }
        if(!empty($inEmail))
        {
        $this->email = $inEmail;
        }
    }
}

When I try and submit the newsletter to be sent out all I get back is this error.    "Cannot use object of type nlEmails as array ......"    

I need to return a specific key from the object converted to array but it seems that it dosent work

Code: [Select]
$toarray = (array)$tmp;
$name = array_keys($toarray,'name');
print_r($toarray);

I am querying a database using pdo but I keep getting an array that returns two results. As you can see from the  array below it returns the id and result and then repeats the result .  I only want the  keys with text to be returned.

Any help would be great.

Code: [Select]
( [0] => Array ( [Ticket_ID] => 2 [0] => 2 [Customer_id] => 1 [1] => 1 [Business_Name] => [2] =>

my database method is
Code: [Select]
    private function queryFetchAllPDO($query) {

        try {
            $this->dataObj->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
            $sth = $this->dataObj->prepare($query);
$sth->execute();
echo"I am here";
$result = $sth->fetchAll();
print_r($result);
   //         $stmt = $this->dataObj->query($query);
//            $stmt->setFetchMode();
//            $result = $stmt->fetchAll();
        } catch (PDOException $e) {

            $e->getMessage();
        }

        return $result;
    }

and the query  method is
Code: [Select]
    private function clieViewHome() {
        //find user id
        $sql = "SELECT Customer_id  FROM customer WHERE Username='" . $this->user . "'";
        $sessAccess = $this->connection->getQueryFetchPDO($sql);
        foreach ($sessAccess as $value) {
            $userID = $value;
        }
        //place into query
        $sql = "SELECT *  FROM tickets WHERE Customer_id ='" . $userID . "'";
        $tableArr = $this->connection->getQueryFetchAllPDO($sql);
         print_r($tableArr);
        foreach ($tableArr as $key => $value) {
            $return .= "<tr>\n";
            foreach ($tableArr[$key] as $value2) {
                $return .="<td>" . $value2 . "</td>\n";
            }
            $return .= "</tr>\n";
        }

       
        return $return;
    }

Hello phpfreaks 

I'm a bit new to PHP, as well as this forum.

I'm learning in a fast way, but there's something I can't seem to figure out, nor find it on google.
I'm sure it's a simple and basic trick, but like I said, I'm just a beginner

So the question is: How can I store multiple words to an array, using only 1 input form field?

I guess it's with a for-loop..?

So everytime you hit the 'submit' button, a new word should be added to the array. My problem is that I'm always overwriting ONE word..

This is what I've got so far.. :

Code: [Select]
<?php
if (isset($_POST['word'])){
$word = $_POST['word'];
$word = strip_tags($word);
$word = trim($word);
$word = htmlentities($word);
}
else {
$word = "";
}
?>

<div id="arrays">
<p>Add a word to the array below:<br /><br /></p>

<form action="index.php" method="post">
<input id="word" name="word" type="text" value="<?php echo $word; ?>" />
<br /><input class="btn" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

<br />

<p>
<?php 
$array = array("apple", "banana", "lemon", $word);

for ($i = 0; $i < count($array); $i++){
echo $array[$i] . " ";
}
?>
</p>
</div>


Also: I'm using PHP 5, in combination with xHTML strict 1.0.

I'm using the code below to on echo certain words based on their index/key value, this works fine however, im trying to only do this in exploded quotes... the problem is, exploding quotes turns the portion into an array which cant be passed to str_word_count... how can i do the same thing only inside quotes. So that  hello world "this is a test" would become: Code: [Select]
Hello World This [0] => Is [1] => a [2] => Test [3] 

Im trying to always remove say the 4th word in quotations, or maybe the 3rd and 4th, whatever i want to omit i leave out from the echo, so echo $data[0].' '.$data[3].'; would output "This Test" omitting "Is A"

Code: [Select]
$data = 'hello world "this is a test"';
$data = str_word_count($data, 1);
echo $data[1].' '.$data[2].' '.$data[0];

My tree gather function gives me multidimensional array. However i want it to be one dimensional . I was getting one dimensional earlier however i forgot how i got it. Can someone please tell me my mistake

Code
Code: [Select]
<?php
include'config.php';
 function tree_gather($node)   
  {
     
 $sql = "SELECT lchild,rchild FROM tree WHERE parent = '$node'";
    $execsql = mysql_query($sql);
    $array = mysql_fetch_array($execsql);
    
    if(!empty($array['lchild']) || !empty($array['rchild']))
    {
   
      $child[] = $array['lchild'];
      $child[] = $array['rchild'];
      $eh[] = tree_gather($array['lchild']);
      $child = array_merge($child, $eh);
      $eh1[] = tree_gather($array['rchild']);  
      $child =   array_merge($child, $eh1);
     
    } 
     return $child;
  }
$pair = tree_gather(1000000);
echo "<pre>";
print_r($pair);
echo "</pre>";  
?> 
Output
Code: [Select]
Array
(
    [0] => 3632873
    [1] => 5951538
    [2] => Array
        (
            [0] => 8930480
            [1] => 7563232
            [2] => Array

Hey guys,

So im building a Content Management System for my A2 project in Computing, and i have a dataBase class. Now, i can return one thing, or do things like inserts however im having a problem returning a list of things such as:

dataBase.class.php

Code: [Select]

          public static function getNYCPost($table, $limit)
{
dataBase::_dbConnect();
if($limit == 0)
{
//debug: echo 'in as 0';
$data = mysql_query("SELECT id, linklabel FROM ".$table." WHERE showing='1' AND id >= 2");
}

if($limit == 1)
{
//debug: echo 'in';
$data = mysql_query("SELECT id, linklabel FROM ". $table ." WHERE showing='1' AND id >= 2 ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5");
return $data;
}
}

When i try to do this in the main code:

index.php

Code: [Select]
<?php
  $list = dataBase::getNYCPost($pages,1);
//  echo $list;
  while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($list)) 
{ 
 $pageId = $row["id"];
 $linklabel = $row["linklabel"];
 $menuDisplay .= '<a href="index.php?pid=' . $pid . '">' . $linklabel . '</a><br />';
}
echo $menuDisplay;
  ?>
$list doesnt return anything, the previous method i used in the class was to make a list and an array and put the contents of the query in an array like:

Code: [Select]
list($list[] = $row);
or something i cant quite remember i saw a youtube video tutorial and it worked for them, but it wasnt for me.


If anyone knows how i can return various rows from a database it would be appreciated

Thanks.

SELECT field, (array of values from table 2) FROM $table1 t1 LEFT JOIN $table2 ON t1.id=t2.id

Hi Guys,

I'm trying the following.. returning an array from a php function to Ajax success but the alert seems to only display undefined.

PHP
Code: [Select]

public function reply()
{
$item_id = $this->uri->segment(3);
$type = $this->uri->segment(4);

if($type == 1){
$data['get_news_item'] = $this->Newsletter_model->get_news_item($item_id);

$test = array( "Paul", "Mike");

return $test;
}
}

AJAX
Code: [Select]


$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "<?php echo site_url(); ?>newsletter/reply/"+id+"/"+type,
cache: false,

success: function (data){


alert(data[0]); // So this should display "Paul"?



});


[/code]

Hey all I am just now getting around to the newest version of the PHP sdk for Facebook. It seems to use a new array of returned data that I can not seem to be able to parse out what I need and not all other gibberish it has contained inside the array. The array returned looks like this:
 

    Array (
    	[data] => Array (
    		[0] => stdClass Object (
    			[id] => 439676913452345546787863523525
    			[name] => John Doe
    			[picture] => stdClass Object (
    				[data] => stdClass Object (
    					[is_e] =>
    					[url] => https://blah.com....
    				)
    			)
    		)
    		[1] => stdClass Object (
    			[id] => 56594790468026754634524674
    			[name] => Bob Barker
    			[picture] => stdClass Object (
    				[data] => stdClass Object (
    					[is_e] =>
    					[url] => https://blah.com....
    				)
    			)
    		)
    		[2]...etc etc...
    		[paging] => stdClass Object ( 
    			[cursors] => stdClass Object ( 
    				[before] => QWFMmhllXN5JH....Rk52QWc= 
    				[after] => WGHtdnNIwaDlRz....05RNB0E= 
    			) 
    		)
    	)
    )

In the older version of the Facebook SDK I just needed to do something along these lines (below code example is getting the id within the returned array and checking also to make sure it has a value or not):
 

    foreach($theReturnedArray['data'] as $rData) {
      $id = (isset($rData['id']) ? $rData['id'] : null);
      $name = (isset($rData['name']) ? $rData['name'] : null);

      echo $name . ' ' . $id . '<br />';
    } 

in order to get the value that I needed. I have also tried:
 

     foreach($graphObject['data'] as $rData) {
	echo $rData->id + '<br/>';
	echo '======================================<br/>';
     }

and that just gives me 0's for each one it finds..   Now the return has an added stdClass object within the array itself and I am unsure on how to go about getting id, name & picture url from it. Any help would be awesome!

I hate array...   😞

So I had a block of code inside my photo-gallery.php script that took the path to my photos directory, and went to that directory, and then read all of the photo filenames into an array.  Then in my HTML, I iterate through this array to display all of the photos for my gallery.

Now I would like to move that code to an included file so multiple scripts can access it and always be working with the same array.

It seems to me that I need to encapsulate my code inside a function?

Then I could call my getPhotoFilesArray back to my callings cript, and use that array for whatever.

I haven't coded PHP in like 4 years and I am struggling to return the entire array back to my caling script.

This is what I have so far...

	function getPhotoFilesArray($photoPath){
	     $photoFiles = array();
	     <code to find corresponding files>
	     $photoFiles gets populated in a loop
	     return $photoFiles;
	}
	

 

Then in my calling script, I have...

	<?php
	     require_once('../../../secure_outside_webroot/config.php');
	     require_once(WEB_ROOT . 'utilities/functions.php');
	     getPhotoFilesArray($photoPath);
	     var_dump($photoFiles);
	

 

I get some error...

	Notice: Undefined variable: phtoFiles in photo-gallery.php line 133 (which is my var_dump).
	

 

<br>

Would appreciate help getting this to work!

I'm not versed in PHP OOP and I have some code that I need to echo out onto a page. I don't know what the meaning of $ct->something is in this code. Is this an array of some type? How do I echo out the $ct->title onto another page? Use a function call? I just don't know what all of the $ct variables are and how to get to them. Any help is appreciated.
Code: [Select]
function current_theme_info() {
    $themes = get_themes();
    $current_theme = get_current_theme();
    if ( ! isset( $themes[$current_theme] ) ) {
        delete_option( 'current_theme' );
        $current_theme = get_current_theme();
    }
    $ct->name = $current_theme;
    $ct->title = $themes[$current_theme]['Title'];
    $ct->version = $themes[$current_theme]['Version'];
    $ct->parent_theme = $themes[$current_theme]['Parent Theme'];
    $ct->template_dir = $themes[$current_theme]['Template Dir'];
    $ct->stylesheet_dir = $themes[$current_theme]['Stylesheet Dir'];
    $ct->template = $themes[$current_theme]['Template'];
    $ct->stylesheet = $themes[$current_theme]['Stylesheet'];
    $ct->screenshot = $themes[$current_theme]['Screenshot'];
    $ct->description = $themes[$current_theme]['Description'];
    $ct->author = $themes[$current_theme]['Author'];
    $ct->tags = $themes[$current_theme]['Tags'];
    $ct->theme_root = $themes[$current_theme]['Theme Root'];
    $ct->theme_root_uri = $themes[$current_theme]['Theme Root URI'];
    return $ct;
}

I'm trying to return to array of letters that bruteForce finally decides upon. However, I can't seem to pass the array to librarySolve.

I'm feeling dumb, any help?

Code: [Select]

$this->new_letters = $this->generateRandomCipher();
$string = preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9-\s]/', '', $string);

for($a=0;$a<=strlen($string);$a++){
$letter = substr($string, $a, 1);
$pattern = "/[A-Z]/";

if(preg_match($pattern, $letter)!=0){
$new_letter = $this->new_letters[$letter];
} else if(preg_match($pattern, $letter)==0) {

$word_array = explode(" ", $decipher);

$count = 0;

$this->bruteForce($base, $state, $trys);
}
}
}
