PHP - Convert Multiline Form Field Into Array
Hi guys!
I need some help with a code problem. I've a form with 2 inputs, one single and one multiline, and I need to pass the value of both into an array, var1 (single input) is the same for every line and var2 (multiline) change with every line Hoe can i do it? Similar TutorialsI have this form:
<form method="get"> This is my first real jump into PHP, I created a small script a few years ago but have not touched it since (or any other programming for that matter), so I'm not sure how to start this. I need a script that I can run once a day through cron and take the date from one table/filed and insert it into a different table/field, converting the human readable date to a Unix date. Table Name: Ads Field: endtime_value (human readable date) to Table Name: Node Field: auto_expire (Converted to Unix time) Both use a field named "nid" as the key field, so the fields should match each nid field from one table to the next. Following a tutorial I have been able to insert into a field certain data, but I don't know how to do it so the nid's match and how to convert the human readable date to Unix time. Thanks in advance!. 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. Hi, This is the code I made to show the problem: $useragent = "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.12) Gecko/20101026 Firefox/3.6.12 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"; $timeout = 10 ; $cookie = tempnam ("/tmp", "CURLCOOKIE"); $post = array('_method'=>"put", 'authenticity_token'=>' zcvcxfsdfvxcv', 'profile_image[a]'=>"@Girl-Next-Door-movie-f01.jpg" ); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $useragent); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Expect:')); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://localhost/test.php"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, $cookie); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookie ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, "" ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, true ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false ); # required for https urls curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout ); curl_setopt( $ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, $timeout ); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post); $html = curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); Now this link used above: http://localhost/test.php has this code: print_r($_POST); print_r($_FILES); It simply prints whats in post and files. So the above code displays this on screen: Code: [Select] Array ( [_method] => put [authenticity_token] => zcvcxfsdfvxcv ) Array ( [profile_image] => Array ( [name] => Array ( [a] => Girl-Next-Door-movie-f01.jpg ) [type] => Array ( [a] => image/jpeg ) [tmp_name] => Array ( [a] => /tmp/phppLJPQV ) [error] => Array ( [a] => 0 ) [size] => Array ( [a] => 55377 ) ) ) but we need to modify the code so that it should display this: Code: [Select] Array ( [_method] => put [authenticity_token] => zcvcxfsdfvxcv ) Array ( [profile_image[a]] => Array ( [name] => Girl-Next-Door-movie-f01.jpg [type] => image/jpeg [tmp_name] => /tmp/phppLJPQV [error] => 0 [size] => 55377 ) ) Meaning, it is taking this(profile_image[a]) as an array when we are defining $post because that's how curl recognizes that we want to upload only a file or an array of files on server by http post. So, basically the problem is the name of the input field that is defined as an array (profile_image[a]) on the web page that we are trying to mock. If this(profile_image[a]) was this (profile_image_a)(without []) on that webpage, then it would not have been a problem. So, if you understand, this is basically a syntax problem. I do not know how stop curl from reading 'profile_image[a]' as an array here 'profile_image[a]'=>"@Girl-Next-Door-movie-f01.jpg. I need curl to read 'profile_image[a]' as an string and not array. I have to use [], otherwise I will not be able to mock the webpage as the name will change. It will give error. I hope I explained the problem and also gave you a way to test if you have a solution. Again, if your code starts displaying this: Code: [Select] Array ( [_method] => put [authenticity_token] => zcvcxfsdfvxcv ) Array ( [profile_image[a]] => Array ( [name] => Girl-Next-Door-movie-f01.jpg [type] => image/jpeg [tmp_name] => /tmp/phppLJPQV [error] => 0 [size] => 55377 ) ) ,then we have a solution. Thanks for helping in advance. Regards, Manoj I'm trying to do this with the code below. I get an error because explode thinks I'm just sending it one argument since the string is held by an array element. If I can get the array from the explode function I can insure it into the first and last name fields in my table. Any suggestions? --Kenoli require '__classes/Db.php'; $sql = "SELECT name FROM tbl_persons"; $stmt = $pdo->query($sql); $row = $stmt->fetchall(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC); foreach ($row as $name) { $names = explode($name['name']); }
Hi I have members DOB stored in a mysql table field called birthday in the following format YYYY-MM-DD I can't seem to convert the time stamp into the members age I need to be able to feed $birthday which is the field in mysql table that is in the above format and then use php code to convert to members age Everything I try doesn't seem to work Code: [Select] $new_array2=array_diff($my_array,$itemIds); $updatedb = mysql_query("UPDATE content_type_ads SET field_expire_value = '666' WHERE $new_array2 = field_item_id_value"); "$new_array2" has only 12 digit numbers for each item in the array, and I want to match them to the "field_item_id_value" field in the table, updating the "field_expire_value" field for the record where they match. I know I am close because the UPDATE code works before I add the WHERE statement (it of course adds '666' to EVERY field, but for a noobie it's a start!). Hi everybody, I need some help about how to convert string to array name. I have the following function which pass $_REQUEST type as parameter. It is not working because I don't know how to convert $method to $_GET or $_POST in a proper way. Do anybody know how? Code: [Select] function validateIfFilled($method, $fields) { $exploded=explode(",",$fields); foreach($exploded as $field){ if(empty($method[trim($field)])){ return false; } } return true; }; if(!validateIfFilled('$_GET', "email, password, address")) ... Thank you!
<?php $srs = array(); for ($section = 1; $section < 5; $section++) { for ($row = $section; $row < 10; $row++) { for ($seat = $row; $seat < 20; $seat++) { $srs[] = array( 'section_name' => $section, 'row_name' => $row, 'seat_name' => $seat); } } } output(convert_array($srs)); // Converts the array function convert_array($input) { return $input; } function output($obj) { echo "<pre>"; print_r($obj); echo "</pre>"; die; } ?>
I'm trying to convert those array number to string, add implode() to make it happen, but seem PHP didn't recognize variable in $input. Like this implode("Section: ", $input) or (Section: ", $srs). Can you help me? Thanks, Gary Edited October 16, 2019 by sigmahokiesI have this php file which i use to get downloaded and uploaded data usage from my splynx radius server over API which outputs it as bytes making a very long string which i want to shorten into Mbps and from the arrays that i get from splynx server i would like help to convert the array "in_bytes" and "out_bytes" to MB. This is my whole code below. currently the output is in bytes and i need it to be in MB <?php $api_url = 'https://xxx/'; // Splynx URL $admin_login = "xxx"; // administrator login $admin_password = "xxx"; // administrator password $api = new SplynxAPI($api_url); $api->setVersion(SplynxApi::API_VERSION_2); $isAuthorized = $api->login([ 'auth_type' => SplynxApi::AUTH_TYPE_ADMIN, 'login' => $admin_login, 'password' => $admin_password, ]); if (!$isAuthorized) { exit("Authorization failed!\n"); } $customerApiUrl_online = "admin/customers/customers-online"; $customers_params = [ 'main_attributes' => [ 'status' => ['IN', ['active', 'blocked']] ]]; $result_online = $api->api_call_get($customerApiUrl_online); $customers_online = $api->response; ?> <table class="table table-transparent"> <thead> <tr> <th>DOWNOAD</th> <th>UPLOAD</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <?php foreach($customers_online as $item) :?> <tr> <td><?php echo $item['in_bytes']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $item['out_bytes']; ?></td> </tr> <?php endforeach;?> </tbody> </table>
I wish to access the following chart by the number and the headings names. field text mysqlfield 1 username Please enter a username un 2 name Please enter you name nm 3 age Please enter your age ag 4 town What town do you live in tw 5 postcode What is your postcode pc I place the field and the text in to a form and use the mysqlfield to placce the data in the mysql database. what i do not know is how to store the array data and how to access it. this is my solution:
$x = ['a' => 2, 'b' => 1, 'c' => 4, 'd' => 1]; $x1 = array_keys($x); $x2 = array_values($x); $z = []; for ($i=0; $i<count($x); $i++) { array_push($z, [$x1[$i],$x2[$i]] ); } print_r($z); //[['a', 2], ['b', 1], ['c', 4], ['d', 1]];is there easier (more elegant) way to do the same ? How can i convert an array of results to a single comma separated string so that I can run it through an SQL query? I have a form a user may submit which has a text area. If the user enters "Today is the first day of the week" it will be stored in the database like that (note the carriage returns etc). If I then get that data from the table and echo it, it will print as 'Today is the first day of the week'. How can I print it so that it will retain the user's input formatting/the formatting shown stored in the table? Hello all, I have what I'm sure is a very easy question and I'm a bit embarrassed to be asking this but I cannot seem to think it out. I want to have a multi-line textbox (textarea) that will allow someone to enter data on each line. I then want to break the textarea line by line and save each line to my db. I know how to connect and insert into my db but I'm struggling thinking how to break the textarea by each line and then saving each of those lines as a new insert. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! How does everyone take data input from an HTML Form and convert it into an Object in OOP? I am thinking it would be better if user inputs resided in an object so that I could manipulate the data in OOP terms instead of referencing the Form procedurally. TomTees I have a simple form and need to convert it to XML so I can send it to my payment gateway. I have the XML data types (?) they are expecting, but do not have a clue of how to build the string. Can someone help me out? Thanks, Debbie Stumped! I have a client who has a form where they upload files to their server: title, two password fields, and the file
They have been unable to upload anything over 10m
Small (under 10mb) files work.
Larger doesn’t
I’ve tracked it down, I think, that the processing page appears to be dropping the form values when the file takes a bit to upload.
I echo’ed the values that are grabbed from the form, and they return empty strings if it takes a while for the file to upload (a large file) - they pass fine if the file is smaller.
I think I've got the php info set correctly, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to adjust the timing out issue, or even where to troubleshoot.
Here's my phpinfo:
