PHP - How To Display Styled Xml Generated By A .asp Link?
Hello guys,
I want to make an xml feed into my webpage, but the xml is generated from an .asp file on another website, so it's not actually an xml file, but xml output. Now, I want to retrieve this xml output on my webpage, but I'm having difficulties while doing this. What I've tried so far: - With PHP: Code: (php) [Select] <?php echo file_get_contents("http://link-on-other-website.asp?XML=1"); ?> - With javascript: Code: (javascript) [Select] <script type="text/javascript"> if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else {// code for IE6, IE5 xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.open("GET","http://link-on-other-website.asp?XML=1", false); xmlhttp.send(); xmlDoc=xmlhttp.responseXML; document.write("<table border='1'>"); var x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("RECORD"); for (i=0;i<x.length;i++) { document.write("<tr><td>"); document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("NAME")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue); document.write("</td><td>"); document.write(x[i].getElementsByTagName("DATE")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue); document.write("</td></tr>"); } document.write("</table>"); </script> When using the PHP code, I can retrieve it obviously, but I get an <?xml ... > declaration within my body, which is not allowed. When using the Javascript code, I can't even retrieve anything. And the goal is to style this xml output to match my website. That's the whole purpose of this xml link, because I couldn't style the iframe I had earlier. Can someone help me on this, on how to properly embed this asp generated xml output, within my HTML5 document? ps: I've asked for the xml-feed link from that other website, so using the above PHP code is legit in my case. Similar TutorialsHi everyone, first of all let me thank you for this wonderful forum I come back here always when i need help... i'm trying to learn so soon i hope, i'll be helping others... I have a question for now, i have a code which goes like this: Code: [Select] <? $b = time (); $date1 =date( "Y-m-d;h:i:s" , mktime(date("h")+6, date("i"), date("s"), date("m") , date("d"), date("Y"))); $str_time = "&receivedtimestamp="; $str_msg = "&msg=bkt"; $str_from = "from="; ?> <a href="http://testext.i-movo.com/api/receivesms.aspx?<?echo $str_from;?><?=$getuser[0]['phone'];?><?echo $str_time;?><?echo $date1;?><?echo $str_msg;?>">Get a Cupon</a> What i need is that when the URL is generated, one of those variables to be hidden, for example the $str_from to be in the link but not visible... I must tell you that the link on the Get Cupon goes to an external link so i don't know if i can do it with .httpaccess as i've heard... I wanted to store a link in the db and display the same link on the front end which will take me to the site. i tried with href but i get some string error. Also i wanted to add a youtube embed tag to display it again on query to the db. in short is possible to store the url in the db and display the same url. thanks My code: Code: [Select] <?php $username = $_SESSION['loggedin']; $extract_user_rank = mysql_query("SELECT `rank` FROM users WHERE username='$username'"); if($extract_user_rank['rank'] > 0) { echo "<a href='control_panel.php'>Admin Control Panel</a>"; } else { //return nothing } ?> I have my rank in the database set to 1. Why doesn't it output the ACP link? Greetings! I have a website www.lanceronlinejobs.com/our_franchises.php I have a franchise images. I want to display each franchise record from database whenever a user click on franchise link.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. I have a "Members" page that displays my organizations members info via My SQL. Currently, the database displays "State" quick links at the top and has the members organized by State down the page. If you click on one of the State links at the top, it will navigate to the section of the page with that state and associated members. I want the members associated with a specific state to be displayed only once I click the associated state link -- instead of all of the information showing at once like it is now. The page I am referring to can be seen at this link: http://homesforhorse...rs.com/members/

Thanks On a website currently under development the URL does not change when navigating around on the page. It always displays the root URL. This is the script that should generate the links: $URLvars=substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], strrpos($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"],"/")+1); $vatLink=$URLvars; $thisPageURL=$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; if(strpos($thisPageURL, "secure/locktech/")!==false)$thisPageURL=substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], 16); $prodLink="http://www.lock-tech.co.uk".$thisPageURL; It used to. However, the server has changed and it does not any more. Is it maybe because the 2 paths (http://www.lock-tech.co.uk and secure/locktech/) must be changed according to the new server? Does anyone know what exactly do these paths stand for? I understand that one of them is the root path but what does the path in the line Code: [Select] if(strpos($thisPageURL, "secure/locktech/")!==false)$thisPageURL=substr($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], 16); stand for? I have something like this on one of my pages: $name = 'Bob'; Code: [Select] if ((isset($_POST['name'])) || ($_POST['name'] == '')) { $name = $_POST['name']; //update database } echo '<form action='' method='POST'>'; echo '<table><tr><td width="125">Name: </td><td><input type="text" name="signature" style="width: 270px;" value="' . $name . '" /></td></tr></table>'; echo '</form>'; Here's the problem: Initially, because the form data has not been sent the input box says: 'Bob'. If I remove the name Bob from the input box by manually clicking in it and deleting the name, and I submit the form, it keeps showing 'Bob', whereas I would like it to be empty. What am I doing wrong? Ok, so I currently have this http://pastebin.com/cCgyavs0 snippet that generates links to the previous, next and last page based on the current page (GET variable) or the total item count in the MySQL DB to then use forms as links by inserting the URLs into the action attribute. I did this cause I don't wanna use images as links, btw :P It kinda works - I get links like: shop.php?page=1 shop.php?page=12 shop.php?page=14 shop.php?page=225 When I'm on page 13 of 225 for example. Though when I click one of the buttons, I always get redirected to "shop.php?". :/ I currently have a query that compiles a League Standings Table (the full code is below) and generate the ranking with Code: [Select] @rownum := @rownum+1 AS rank This works fine for the main standings page but I want to use the row numbers elsewhere. Each team has it's own page which uses 'team.team_id' as its 'recordID'. On these pages I would like to show that particular teams ranking in the standings. The two options I see would be to run the query filtering by 'team.team_id' but that would only return the one record so ranking would always be '1' or run the whole query and then somehow find which ranking relates to 'team.team_id' (something that may be possible with VIEWS but the database is running on MySQL4) but I cannot figure out how to get around this. For example, if the standings were Rank Team 1 Rovers 2 United 3 City 4 Rangers 5 Town 6 Athletic 7 Wanderers 8 Hotspur On the 'Rangers' page I would want it to show 'RANKING: 4' and on the 'Athletic' page it would show 'RANKING: 6'. On top of this I would want to show a small version of the rankings with one team above and one team below (it would actually be two teams but I will keep it simple until I understand it!) so one again given the two examples above I would get RANGERS PAGE Rank Team 3 City 4 Rangers 5 Town ATHLETIC PAGE Rank Team 5 Town 6 Athletic 7 Wanderers The query is $i = 1; $ht = "g.home_team = t.team_id"; $at = "g.away_team = t.team_id"; $hw = "g.home_goals > g.away_goals"; $aw = "g.home_goals < g.away_goals"; $d = "g.home_goals = g.away_goals"; $hg ="g.home_goals"; $ag ="g.away_goals"; $table = mysql_query("SELECT t.team_name as Tm, @rownum := @rownum+1 AS rank , (sum(CASE WHEN (".$ht."

Can someone explain why @rownum := @rownum+1 AS rank causes $i to increment by one? I found the code while searching and do not understand why $i is necessary unless it is a reserved reference. The way the code looks, I should be able to output the ranking using 'rank' but that does not work. I have no problem with how it does things, it would just be nice to understand! Hey all, I have a relationship where a zone has many posts and a category has many zones but a zone can also have many categories. The zones are basically parts of a page, such as the main area and sidepanel stored in database as records with name fields such as 'panel' and 'main'. There's a serious flaw right now and I would like to know the best solution to address it. Right now I access the posts of a zone of a category like this: Code: [Select] $category->zone->get()->post->get(); The above ends up displaying all the posts in the database for any given category because when category is selected, it searches for the associating zones, and then selects all posts related to those zones, which is wrong. i want to select all posts of the zones associated with that particular category. Current database: Code: [Select] posts id zone_id zones id name categories_zones id zone_id category_id categories id What should I do? Add a category_id column to the posts table and relate the post directly to the category as well as directly to the zones table so the post table would have two foreign keys: category_id and zone_id Would this be the most effective thing to do given my requirements? Thanks for response. I'm not sure of the appropriate subject line for this feature, but hopefully I'm close. I'll try to describe what I'm trying to do. The most common place you see this is on web based file uploads so I'll use it as my example. Let's say I want to allow my user to upload files so there is a text box where they enter the file name. The user is allowed to upload as many files as he wants with 1 push of the submit button. Upon the loading of the form, there will be 5 textboxes for file upload, but if the user wants to upload more than 5 files, there is a link that is clicked and I think via ajax or javascript another textbox will be added. The user can do this for as many files he wants to upload. This is what it looks like to the user, but then when the form is submitted how are these variables referenced? So how is this setup in the main form and how are the variables referenced after form submission? If anyone can point me to a good web tutorial on this type of thing I would appreciate it. Thanks Carl Hello I've spent the last few hours writing a small php file that creates a signature for Steam (a gaming platform) and saves it as a png. It basically just pulls the neceassary info and images from the user's Steam XML stream and uses GD to arrange it nicely. A link to an example is here. Now, the trouble I have is that it saves the image as a .php file (it can be downloaded as a png but not linked to as one, images.php.png doesn't exist). I can navigate to the webpage and save as a png but for obvious reasons can't link to it as an image (making the forum signature part kind of hard to pull off). Is there any easy way (I'm unspeakably bad with php) that I can save the php graphic as a PNG to an external page (for example /sig_name.png or /images.php?id=name.png)? Thanks for any help Hi. I have a rating site where users fill in a name of what they are rating, comments about it and a rating and submit it to my database. I then have another page which shows all of these entries but only the name and overall rating using php. What I want is for users to click on the name and it take them to a separate page which displays all the comments and ratings for that item. As users can add items to rate I cant set up a page for each manually so was wondering how to do it dynamically. Everything i throw into google leads me in the wrong direction though. If someone could point me to a good tutorial or give me an idea about what to search id be very grateful. Cheers. Hi, I have a question here. Currently my $tutor_id is auto incremental in my SQL, and it is in running numbers. However I will like to add a 'T' in front of the id. Example: Currently, our id number is 1 2 3 4 etc. Would like to achieve T1 T2 T3 T4 etc. How do I do it? Below is my code as well. Please kindly advise. Thanks /**INSERT into tutor_id table to create a new id for new tutors**/ $query = "INSERT INTO tutor_id (id) " . "VALUES ('$id')"; $results = mysqli_query($dbc, $query) or die(mysqli_error()); $tutor_id = mysqli_insert_id($dbc); /**INSERT into tutor table**/ $query1 = "INSERT INTO tutor (tutor_id, email) " . "VALUES ('$tutor_id', '$email')"; $results1 = mysqli_query($dbc, $query1) or die(mysqli_error()); |
