PHP - How To Make Fetch_array Inside A Function Global?
I need $row['con_id'] outside the function so I can put it into a query, but simply putting global in front of it won't work. What would be the right way to do?
This portion of code is INSIDE a function: //Loop through the array of data while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array ($data)) { echo "<table padding='0' margin='0' class='knuffixTable'>"; echo "<input type='hidden' name='con_id' value='<?php echo " . $row['con_id'] . "; ?>' />"; echo "<tr><td width='65px' height='64px' class='avatar_bg' rowspan='2' colpan='2'><img src='$avatar_path' alt='avatar' /></td><td class='knuffix_username'><strong>" . $user_name; echo "</strong><br />" . $row['category'] . " | " . date('M d, Y', strtotime($row['contributed_date'])) . "</td></tr><tr><td>"; echo "<form action='' method='post'> <input type='submit' name='plusVote' value='Y' /> <input type='submit' name='minusVote' value='N' /> </form></td><td class='votes'>Y[ - ] | N[ - ]</td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td class='knuffix_name' colspan='3'><strong>" . htmlentities($row['name']) . "</strong><br /></td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td colspan='2' class='knuffix_contribution'><pre>" . $row['contribution'] . "</pre><br /></td></tr>"; echo "</table>"; The PHP documentation does not show any examples how to GLOBALIZE a mysqli function. I'd need a way to use $row['con_id'] outside the function for the voting script I'm writing. Thanks for the suggestions. Similar TutorialsWhen I put this chunk of code into it's own function: function fetch_all ($dbc, $query) { include ('knuffix_list_func.php'); pagination_start ($dbc, $query); $offset = $pag_array[0]; $rows_per_page = $pag_array[1]; $query = $query . " LIMIT $offset, $rows_per_page"; echo "test query: " . $query; knuffix_list ($query, $dbc); pagination_end ($pag_array); } And when I echo out the query as you can see in the example, then I notice that the variables $offset and $rows_per_page never get appended. I set the variable $pag_array to a global inside the function pagination_start(). It usually works when I DON'T wrap a function around this chunk of code, but if I do wrap a function around everything then the global suddenly won't work anymore. Btw, this also won't work if I wrap a function around the function DECLARATIONS. Any ideas, how I could make it work? Hi guys. I need some help, because i'm stuck I'm getting this error and cand figure out what im doin wrong.

In this you are able to produce something ("weed"). Now I've got some kind of trouble with the function that is responsible for updating the "weed" on the user accounts. Im going to explain, how my script is working First step: Loading the datas from "worlds". In this case id, weed_factor, weed_basis. What this is required for you will see in the next steps <?php include 'includes/settings/mysql.php'; mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass); mysql_select_db($dbbase); $time = time(); $update_weed_world_data_sql = "SELECT id, weed_factor, weed_basis FROM worlds"; $update_weed_world_data_res = mysql_query($update_weed_world_data_sql) OR DIE (mysql_error()); while($update_weed_world_data_while = mysql_fetch_assoc($update_weed_world_data_res)){ $update_weed_world_id = $update_weed_world_data_while['id']; $update_weed_world_basis[$update_weed_world_id] = $update_weed_world_data_while['weed_basis']; $update_weed_world_factor[$update_weed_world_id] = $update_weed_world_data_while['weed_factor']; global $update_weed_world_basis; } Second step: This is the function which is editing each account by the data given as parameters. function do_update_weed($profile_id,$world,$update,$level,$time){ $update_weed_period = $time - $update; $update_weed_add = ($update_weed_period / 3600 * $update_weed_world_basis[$world] * pow($update_weed_world_factor[$world],$level)) +1; echo $update_weed_world_basis[$world]; echo "<br>"; mysql_query("UPDATE profiles SET weed = weed +$update_weed_add, weed_update = $time WHERE id = $profile_id LIMIT 1"); } Note: echo $update_weed_world_basis[$world]; doesnt result an output. In step three, the accounts are loaded: function todo_update_weed($time){ $todo_update_weed_sql = "SELECT * FROM profiles WHERE weed_update < $time"; $todo_update_weed_res = mysql_query($todo_update_weed_sql) or die (mysql_error()); while($todo_update_weed_while = mysql_fetch_assoc($todo_update_weed_res)){ do_update_weed( $todo_update_weed_while['id'], $todo_update_weed_while['world_id'], $todo_update_weed_while['weed_update'], $todo_update_weed_while['level_farm'], $time ); } } And the last step is calling function "todo_update_weed" with the time. todo_update_weed($time); I script calculate the time between the last update and the current time. This make a difference in time. With this value I calculate something else. And then the update time has to be saved. The script has just working fine, when I set the variable "$update_weed_add" with a fix value. But by now the script doesn't work, because I don't know how to make the array available inside functions. I considered whether I put the database-function for the world_data inside the function that updates the profiles. But if I do this, the database will be called thousands of times... Hope anybody has a nice idea to fix the problem Hiya! I was wondering if this is possible. Here is my example. This is a example class; <?php class a { public function __construct() { } public function returnValue() { include 'files/lang.php'; $this->lang = new lang(); return $this->lang->displayLang('10'); } } ?> This is the second class file; <?php class b { public function __construct() { } public function returnValue() { include 'files/lang.php'; $this->lang = new lang(); return $this->lang->displayLang('10'); } } ?> This is the main file; <?php include 'test/a.php'; $test = new a(); $test->returnValue(); include 'test/a.php'; $test2 = new b(); $test2->returnValue(); ?> With this I'm getting an error stating I cannot redeclare the function lang. I have found a way around this by using require_once but I was wondering if remove the include and $this->lang var from class 2 and I put this as the $this->lang var declaration in class 1; global $this->lang = new lang(); will class 1 and class 2 be able to use it from only the one declaration made in class 1. If so, would this be the way to do it or is there a better/working way to do it? Many many thanks, James. Hi All, For the last post,I m very happy that i found out so many great mind who are watching my problem and solving online. anyway great thanks for all, just now i m making a project and i m facing problem in the below code "i need to know how can make this code easy or how can i make rdata variable accessible for the download button" generatecv.php file <?php if(isset($_REQUEST['submit'])) { $name=$_REQUEST['pname']; $pin=$_REQUEST['pin']; $mnumb=$_REQUEST['mnumber']; $tnumb=$_REQUEST['telenumber']; $email=$_REQUEST['email']; $obj=$_REQUEST['obj']; $title=$_REQUEST['jobt']; $activity=$_REQUEST['activity']; //$file=fopen('test.doc','a+'); //echo @fwrite($file,$name); //fclose($file); $rdata=""; $rdata.="<table id='cvtbl' border='0' align='center' > <th>Resume</th> <tr><td>".$name.":</td></tr><tr><td>Objective:</td></tr>"; $rdata.="<tr><td>".$obj."</td></tr>"; $rdata.="<tr><td>Email:".$email."</td></tr>"; $rdata.="</table>"; echo $rdata; echo "<style>#cv{display:none;}</style>"; echo "<form><input type='submit' name='dwnld' id='dwnld' value='Download'/></form>"; } if(isset($_REQUEST['dwnld'])) { header("Content-type:application/msword"); header("Content-disposition:attachment;filename=test.doc"); $fp=fopen("test.doc","r") or die("try again"); $data=fread($fp,filesize('test.doc')); fwrite($fp,$rdata); echo $data; fclose($fp); //echo $rdata."<br />".$rdata; } ?> this is the html file <html> <title>User details</title> <body> <form name='cv' id='cv' method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action='generatecv.php'> Enter your name<input type=text name=pname id=pname /> Zip Code<input type=text name=pin id=pin /> Mobile number<input type=text name=mnumber id=mnumber /> <br />Telephone number <input type=text name=telenumber id=telenumber /> Email address<input type=text name=email id=email /> <br />Enter your objective<br /><textarea name=obj id=obj cols=30 rows=5 ></textarea> <!--University Name <input type=text name=university id=university /> --> <br /><!--uni, city ,state ,type of degree ,full degree name,date--> <br /><!--Experience<br /><textarea name=exp id=exp cols=30 rows=5 ></textarea> --> Select type of resume <select name='type' id='type' onChange=''> <option value='0'>Graduate</option> <option value='1'>Post Graduate</option> <option value='2'>Non Graguate</option> <option value='3'>Other</option> </select> Job title<input type='text' name='jobt' id='jobt' /> <br /><!--company name,city ,state ,office number ,job description ,date of employment--> <br />Activity <input type=text name=activity id=activity size=100 /> <br />Honors/Awards<input type=text name=honor id=honor size=100 /> <input type='submit' name='submit' id='submit' value='Generate CV' /> <input type='reset' name='Reset' id='submit' value='Reset' /> </form> </body> </html> Many thanks in advance Hi, As the title suggests I am unsure on how to first run a query which stores values into an array. I then need to run a function multiple times but use the array within the function. How is this possible? I have had no luck figuring it out yet. 1. RUN QUERY 2. BUILD ARRAY USING QUERY RESULTS 3. RUN FUNCTION MULTIPLE TIMES 4. WITHIN FUNCTION I NEED TO USE ARRAY Many thanks Simon Hello I've have read that global variables should not be used. so if i have 2 .php files: index.php - main content php file sitefunctions.php - php functions site file on my index.php page i have the following (an example of my problem): <?php displayError($errorID); ?> and in the sitefunctions.php file i have the following (an example of my problem): <?php function displayError($errorID) { if($errorID == 1) { echo "Password Failure"; } else { echo "Other Failure"; } } ?> now that works but since when first accesing that page the $errorID is not set then i get an error. How can i achieve this without first setting a blank $errorID global variable? Thanks I run these functions to find the key of a given element inside an array. Like so; $ban_ip_file = file("ip_file.txt"); foreach($ban_ip_file as $key => $value) { $value = trim($value); if($value == $ip_from_form)// passed to page by a form $set = $key; } How do I make $set available for testing and file writing further down the script? Tried assigning global $set; just above the $set=$key; ----but it did not work. Hello, my global variable is getting whacked (defined null or being undefined) after a function call. I'm not sure if it's happening when leaving the function that assigns it or when the form is "posted", or something else. Code: [Select] <? //global variables $globalVarString = ""; //function definitions function displayResults() { global $globalVarString; if ($globalVarString == "") {displayForm("please enter your search string again");} else {displayForm("you typed: $globalVarString");} } function getResults($searchInput) { global $globalVarString; $globalVarString = $searchInput; //give status ?> <html><head><title>Search</title></head><body> <form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post"> Thanks for entering your data (<? echo "$globalVarString" ?>).<br><br>Please press the submit button to process your data    <input type="Submit" value="Submit" name="processQuery"> </form></body></html> <? } function displayForm($message) { //prompt for input ?> <html><head><title>Search</title></head><body> <form action=" <? $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" method="post"> <h3>Please enter your search <input type="text" name="searchString">    <script type="text/javascript">document.forms[0].searchString.focus();</script> <input type="Submit" value="Submit Query" name="searchQuery"></h3> </form> <? if (!$message == ""){echo "<br>    <h4>" . $message . "</h4><br>";} ?> </body></html> <? } //main() if(array_key_exists('searchQuery', $_POST)) {getResults($_POST['searchString']);} elseif (array_key_exists('processQuery', $_POST)) {displayResults();} else {displayForm("");} ?> Hello all, I have some piece of code that is nested like this $variable = 'This is a global argument'; function parentFunction($variable) { function childFunction() { echo 'Argument of the parent function is '.$GLOBALS['variable']; } childFunction(); } parentFunction(5); What I want to know is - Is there a way to access a variable from the parent function without passing arguments to the child function? (Something like how classes have parent::?). I don't want to use $GLOBALS because it might cause some variable collision, and I didn't want to pass arguments because incase I decide to change the arguments in the parent function I'd have to do it in the child function aswell. From my searching around in the Internet it seems like this is not possible, but if theres a slight chance that there might be something out there, i'm willing to give it a shot . Thanks in advance Hi. It's the first time i try JOIN in MySQL integrated with PHP. I'm also a newbie @PHP so please bare with me... Code: [Select] mysql_select_db("dbnamehere", $con); $result = mysql_query(" SELECT * FROM blogg JOIN blogg_categories ON (blogg.category=blogg_categories.id) ORDER BY id DESC"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { I keep getting this error: Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx on line49. Line 49 is "While" im using a function which connects to a db called 'comments' and then inside that function i again called another function that will connect to the db 'main' to get avatars.... but as i put Code: [Select] mysql_select_db("main") or die(mysql_error()); on the new function, the original function stops to fetch rows. i tried to remove "mysql_select_db("main") or die(mysql_error());" and used the new function to return some text only and it worked, so i guess the connection to the db was the problem... i tried doing Code: [Select] mysql_query("SELECT * FROM main.avatar INNER JOIN main.list ON main.avatar.title=main.list.id WHERE main.avatar.page_id='$id'"); but it also didnt work Hi, I'm an novice/intermediate PHP prgogrammer, so excuse me if this is a stupid question. I have one php program that consist of a few functions. Inside the function taht is the starting point I pickup a few entries from a MYSQL database, and display those in my html page. I wish to dynamically put a link on those entries that makes it possible for the users to click those entries an get directed to other functions inside this very same PHP program WITH a parameter. The parameters that should accompany the url/link into the selected function to be able to select apropriate records from the mysql tables. Any hints and tips for this would be highly appreciated! Kind Regsrds, Terje Hvidsten. Hi Everyone. I'm working on a form, that allows the user to select the country / county / area where they are from. I am doing this using: - mysql database store the locations in - PHP OOP, to pull this information from the database - AJAX/Javascript to only show the next dropdown, once the first dropdown has been selected. Example: select country then the county dropdown will appear, select county then the area/town will appear. However, the first drop down for country is placed directly on to the page. So the javascript works fine. but the second dropdown is placed in to a PHP function, and the javascript seems to no longer want to work. CODE: Code: [Select] //////////////// CODE FOR COUNTRY /////////// if(isset($_REQUEST['country'])) { echo ' <div class="labelleft">County / State:</div> <div class="fieldleft"> <div > <select name="county" id="county" onchange="javascript:AJAXQuery("lib/search.php?town="+this.value, "tw", "")"> <option value="0">Select County</option> <option value="0">-------</option>'; $countyList = Area_county::find_country_id($_REQUEST['country']); foreach($countyList as $countyLists){ $county_id = $countyLists->id; $county_list = $countyLists->county; echo '<option value="'.$county_id.'">'.ucwords($county_list).'</option>'; } echo ' </select> </div> </div> <div class="clear"></div>'; } Any ideas? Thanks I dont know why I'm having so many problems with this. I need to get a variable that defined in an included file inside of a function I've got this Inside file.php I've got the $variable1 and $variable2 defined (they're dynamic/different to each user) include('file.php'); function foo() { GLOBAL $variable1, $variable2; echo $variable1; echo $variable2; } foo(); Yet it outputs nothing? If I Include file.php right inside of the function it works however. Any idea? Hey Before I start playing around with some code I want to know if it is possible to call a function inside a while loop that will call echo a some stuff then return to the loop it got called by? thanks I have included language file and function file in my index.php
include 'includes/functions.php'; include 'languages/english.php';english.php contains <?php $lang['success']['a'] = 'Settings have been updated.'; $lang['error']['b'] = 'Database error. Please try again later!'; ................................. ?>functions.php <?php function testFunction($id, $settings, $db){ $query = 'UPDATE table_name SET a = a + :a WHERE id = :id'; $update = $db->prepare($query); $update->bindParam(':a', $settings['a'], PDO::PARAM_INT); $update->bindParam(':id', $id, PDO::PARAM_INT); $success = $update->execute(); if($success){ print $lang['success']['a']; }else{ print $lang['error']['b']; } } ................................................. ?>Now if i print testFunction(); i got Undefined variable: lang in ............. If i include 'languages/english.php'; in testFunction() then everything works. Any other way to make $lang working without including language file in testFunction(). (Sorry for my bad english) print testfunction(2, $settings, $db); Hi I am trying to use the nl2br function like this while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($query)) { //May need this later to output pictures // $imageURL = 'upload/'.rawurlencode($row["filename"]); echo " <div class='divTableRow'> <div class='divTableCell'>{$row['User']} ;</div> <div class='divTableCell'>nl2br({$row['CommentText']});</div> </div> \n"; } However the output just looks like the attached picture. When I check in the sql db I can see the line breaks when doing a select * from Table ;
hello. i have two functions that are not working because i cant seem to input the php and java correctly.. could someone help please. how do i put these lines into a function: 1 - Code: [Select] function applyBox() { echo ' <div id="apply"> <h3><b><span class="arial18_GRN">Apply NOW</span> to become a<br>BusinessMobiles.com Affiliate</b></h3> <p class="applyText">Drive quality traffic to one of our<br>partners and get paid for it.</p> <a href="#" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('Apply','','image/callsToAction/applyButton2.jpg',1)"> <img src="image/callsToAction/applyButton1.jpg" class="applyButton" alt="Apply" name="Apply" width="137" height="36" border="0"></a> </div> '; } this part is not working: onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('Apply','','image/callsToAction/applyButton2.jpg',1)"> i can see that the ' is breaking it. i tried putting .'s but it didn't work : onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('.Apply.','..','.image/callsToAction/applyButton2.jpg.',1)"> 2 - this form: Code: [Select] <div class="form"> <form name="Form" method="post" action="<?PHP echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <input name="submit" type="hidden" value="submit" /></input> <input type="text" class="inputField" name="Uname" id="Uname" value="'.$Uname.'" onfocus="clearUname()"></input> <input type="text" class="inputField" name="PW" id="PW" value="'.$PW.'" onfocus="clearPW()"></input> <input type="image" class="submit" src="image/wrapper/submit.jpg" value="Submit" alt="login" width="36" height="20" border="0" /></input> </form> this part is not working : <form name="Form" method="post" action="<?PHP echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> i tried: <form name="Form" method="post" action="'.echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'"> but no luck. any suggestions ???? thanks ricky I'm using this line a lot on my site. It would be nice if I didn't have to change it 10 times over when I decide to change something. Can I wrap that into a Function and use it in a While loop? echo '<div><a href="/tag/'. strtolower($nameFirst) . '-' . strtolower($nameLast) .'">'. $nameFirst . ' ' . $nameLast .'</a>, '; I have this above it in the While loop.
$nameFirst = $row['nameFirst'];
My function predictably looks like this... function player_name () { echo '<div><a href="/tag/'. strtolower($nameFirst) . '-' . strtolower($nameLast) .'">'. $nameFirst . ' ' . $nameLast .'</a>, '; }
