PHP - Help - Variable Keeps Resetting - Dynamic Text

OK, what I am trying to do is generate a dynamic variable name.

I want to setup a foreach statement that will generate variable names based on an array of data.

$numbers = array('one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven');

foreach ($numbers as $number) {

}


What I need, is for a bunch of variables to be generated and filled with content.

$variable_one_label = "Blah";
$variable_two_label = "Blah Again";

How can I generate the dynamic variable based on the array value?

Hello. I want to create some variables dynamically. I have this so far:

 

for($i = 1; $i <= 4 ; $i++){
$a = 'member' . $i;
        $$a = array();
}


Does that give me  this 4 arrays?:

$member1, $member2, $member3 and $member4? Of course I want some process inside of the loop, but that would depend on the variables. Would that work? thanks!

hi guys I just could not find the answer on forum. I have a url like this http://www.example.com/deal.php?id=367 and my question is : how can i use curl function to get the html and the id value which is 367

Hi
I'm trying the following code:
Code: [Select]
$t = '12<-- AB_C -->';
$AB_C = 'abc';
echo preg_replace('/\<-- ([A-Z_]+) --\>/', "$$1", $t);I want to get "12abc" , but it outputs: 12$AB_C , so, it not recognize the replacement as dynamic variable.
Is it any way to use the matched word in preg_replace() as a variable, or dynamic variable?

Hi all, here's my code:

Code: [Select]
<?php
foreach ($_SESSION['topping'] as $value) {
    echo "<tr><td width='30%'>Topping</td><td width='50%'>$value</td><td width='20%'><select name='notopping'>";
foreach ($_SESSION['cupcake'] as $number) { '<option name="notoppings[]" value="'.$number.'">".$number."</option>'; }
echo "</select></td></tr>";
}
?>

$_SESSION['cupcake'] is a value from either 6, 12, 24 or 36.  What I want to do is put them into a drop down box (second foreach) as the value and the displayed value - counting up from 1 (so 1,2,3,4,5,6 or up to 12,24 etc).

Also by creating this as an array, does this mean than for each topping (say Vanilla and Chocolate) the value dynamically created can be used on the next page by using $_POST['notoppings'] to display each type (two different numbers - one for Vanilla and one for Chocolate).  Does that make sense?

Thanks!

Hi All,

i am trying to Generate a image dynamically.
Up to here i am able to do it .
But when i give any echo statement with this its not working..
Here is my code pls help me in this

<?php
// Create a 55x30 image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(79, 79);
$unknow = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 255, 255);
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);

// Draw a white rectangle
imagefilledrectangle($im, 4, 4, 75, 25, $unknow);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 4, 29, 75, 50, $unknow);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 4, 54, 75, 75, $unknow);

// Save the image

echo 'hi hello';
header("Content-type: image/png");
//imagepng($im, './imagefilledrectangle.png');
imagepng($im);

imagedestroy($im);
?>


Thanks in advance.

I have a form that you can add email boxes and recipients to.  when you add the boxes it actually submits.  I did it this way to change the session that determines how many boxes you get. 

The problem is if I (as a web user) have entered X number of emails and recipients then submit to add another  set of text fields then how can I keep the 3 already entered populated?


<?php
$start = $_SESSION['NOCStart'];
$stop = $_SESSION['NOCStop'];
for($m = $start; $m < $stop; $m++){
echo "
  <tr> 
<td>$m: <input id='text' type='text' name='invEmail[]' value='WHATS GOES HERE??' /></td>
<td><input id='text' type='text' name='invName[]' value='WHATS GOES HERE??' /></td>
  </tr>
";
}
?>


The submitted info is captured with the following code:
For testing it simply outputs the info...


if (isset($_SESSION['NOC']) && $current_page == "invitations.php"){

if(isset($_POST['addemail'])){

$impEmail = implode(",", $_POST['invEmail']);
$expEmail = explode(",", $impEmail);
$impName = implode(",", $_POST['invName']);
$expName = explode(",", $impName);

$sendit = array_combine($expEmail, $expName);

foreach ($sendit as $key => $value) {
     echo "$key belongs to $value<br />\n";
}

if ($_SESSION['NOCStop'] == $_SESSION['NOC'] + 1){
$message = "<script>alert('Max Emails Reached')</script>";

}else{
$_SESSION['NOCStart'] = 1;
$_SESSION['NOCStop'] = $_SESSION['NOCStop'] + 1;
}

}else{
$stopper = $_SESSION['NOC'] * .5;
$rounder = round($stopper) + 1;
$_SESSION['NOCStart'] = 1;
$_SESSION['NOCStop'] = $rounder;

}

}


Thank you for your help!

I'm having trouble with some foreach statements.  I'm pretty sure I've narrowed it down to one foreach statement.  Not sure where to go from here. 
Code: [Select]
// output column headers
$rows=1;
$cols=0;
foreach ($colarr as $col){
//echo "<pre>"; print_r($col); echo "</pre>";
$text=str_replace("<br>", "\r\n", $col['desc']);
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue($xlcols[$cols].$rows, $text);
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->getStyle($xlcols[$cols].$rows)->getAlignment()->setWrapText(true);
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->getStyle($xlcols[$cols].$rows)->getAlignment()->setHorizontal(PHPExcel_Style_Alignment::HORIZONTAL_LEFT);
$cols++;
}
$rows++;

// output data rows
if (isset($apptable['retarr']) && isset($apptable['retarr']['rs']) && count($apptable['retarr']['rs'])>0){
foreach ($apptable['retarr']['rs'] as $row=>$r){
if (is_numeric($row)){
//echo '<pre>'.print_r($apptable).'</pre>';//exit;
$cols=0;
foreach ($r as $col=>$c){
if (isset($colarr[$col])){
//echo '<pre>'.print_r($colarr[$col]).'</pre>';//exit;
//echo "this is xlcols: ".$xlcols[$cols].$rows; echo " ";
//echo "This is col: ".$col; echo " ";
//echo "This is r[col]: ".$r[$col]; echo "<br>";
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue($xlcols[$cols].$rows, $r[$col]);
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->getStyle($xlcols[$cols].$rows, $r[$col])->getAlignment()->setHorizontal(PHPExcel_Style_Alignment::HORIZONTAL_LEFT);
$cols++;
}
}
$rows++;
}
}
}

The first section (output column headers) prints column names to an excel spreadsheet.  The next part (output data rows) puts the data in an excel spreadsheet.  The problem I have is that the data rows don't match the header columns.  I think this is because the array $colarr is not after the first foreach loop.  I've tried to

reset, asort, and sort to move it back to the beginning, but none of those worked.  And this  $reset_array_keys = array_values($numerically_indexed_array);
Any suggestions on what I should do? 

Output of print_r($colarr[$col]).
Code: [Select]
Array ( [dbcolumn] => tr_ngfg_statement_date [desc] => Ngfg Statement Date [align] => l [format] => [pdfalign] => L [pdfwidth] => [ajaxupdate] => y [ajaxdropdown] => [sort] => y [link] => [options] => [fttype] => none )

That's really the only way i can categorize this particular question.

I have a site loading a form into an iframe. probably not the smartest thing to do but I've built a one-page portfolio site that scrolls to each anchor point with the scrollTo script.  None the less, my form loads into my frame.

I started thinking about usability and how odd it might be to a non-techie, non-webby visitor to go to the form, submit and then maybe want to send another message. Although not very probable, it's the stuff we don't anticipate happening that usually gets us in deep.  Really, what I'm looking for is something where after the visitor submits the form and it says "thank you for sending us an email" that it would either automatically reset my index page OR give the visitor the option of manually resetting the page.

my form

Code: [Select]
<form method="POST" action="mailer.php"><br />
Name:<br />

   <input type="text" name="name" size="50"><br>
   <br />
   E-Mail:<br>
   <input type="text" name="email" size="50"><br>
   <br />
   Comments:<br>
   <textarea wrap="soft" rows="5" name="message" cols="48"></textarea>
   <br>
   <br>
   <input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">
</form>


php script
Code: [Select]
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']) || isset( $_POST['submit_x'] )) {

$to = "email@mydomain.com";
$subject = "Contact from a visitor";
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
 
$body = "From: $name\n E-Mail: $email\n Message:\n $message";

Hi there,

I have a simple question - is it possible to send out an html email containing PHP/MySQL code so that when the user receives the email it checks the date and serves up content from a database? I have created a page that works fine online, but when I try to email the page, it doesn't work from within the user's email client (such as outlook, or gmail).

When I look at the raw email source, it looks like the PHP code isn't getting executed by the email program. If anyone knows a reason or workaround, I would appreciate it!

Thanks in advance,
Rick

I am looking for a dynamic image script that handles word wrapping and possible font resizing.

Basically, I have a dimensions, a font and a company name. So, lets say I am trying to make a 300x300 image for Bob's Boats in verdana. I want a script that not only creates the image, but tries to use up the available space (putting each word on a line, using a large font, horizontally and vertically aligning everything)

Worst case I'll write my own, but the algorithm seems pretty complex. For example, lets say the companies name was: Chocolates in a Basket, it could be:

Chocolates
in a Basket

Or:

Chocolates
in a
Basket

But never:

Chocolates
in
a
Basket

Worst case, I might make it so that it supports 3 lines, but only ever puts the company name on 2 by default, and if the user wants to manually change it, they can. Even that isn't perfect though, because if the dimensions are something like 300x35, you wouldn't want a second line, let alone a 3rd.

I am not very advanced in web programming  I need help..    I am using an API and my sql database. I would to implement live/ dynamic updates in the text field where user will input their text, and the web should first check the database then the api live. I would also like to retrieve the user input without refreshing the page, so the retrieved information regarding the inputted text should be automatically loaded without refreshing the page.   please help .

Hi guys,

Here is what I have so far:
http://www.autoshopgarage.com/new-era/generate.php

What I am trying to do is instead of having Line 1 and Line 2, I want to just have one big textarea so I don't have to limit the user so much.  I did it this way because I want to have two versions of text, the light version and the bold version. 

Is it possible to have two different fonts with just one textarea of text?  Right now I have two functions:
Quote

ImageTTFText($image, $fontSize, $fontRotation, 435, 80, $color, $font1, wordwrap($first, 18, "\n", true));
ImageTTFText($image, $fontSize, $fontRotation, 485,120, $color_black, $font2, wordwrap($last, 18, "\n", true));


So I would limit that to just 1, and it would automatically wordwrap but what would I put for the $font variable?  Is this even possible?  I was thinking of just using BBCode so they could type in [b*]Bold Text[/b*] and it would use the Bold version of the font if it sees that.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Here is the full code:
Quote

<?php
$first = $_GET['first'];
$last = $_GET['last'];
$font_color = $_GET['color'];

header("Content-type: image/png");
$image = imagecreatefrompng ( "banner_blank.png" );
$color_black = imagecolorallocate($image, 0, 0, 0);
$color_red = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 0, 0);

if($font_color == "Red") {
   $color = $color_red;
}
elseif($font_color == "Black") {
   $color = $color_black;
}

$font1 = 'HelveticaNeueLTStd-BdEx.ttf';
$font2 = 'HelveticaNeueLTStd-LtEx.ttf';
$fontSize = "21";
ImageTTFText($image, $fontSize, $fontRotation, 435, 80, $color, $font1, wordwrap($first, 18, "\n", true));
ImageTTFText($image, $fontSize, $fontRotation, 485,120, $color_black, $font2, wordwrap($last, 18, "\n", true));
imagepng ( $image );
imagedestroy ( $image );
?>

I want to add some text between dynamic text like in newspapers but i don't know how to do that.
