PHP - Mysql Search Where Question (should Be Easy Answer)
I'm trying to search the 'ad' column where 'ad' = 1 or 3
I'm having problems doing this. Here is what I currently have, but it is not bringing back 'ad' where ='1' (for obvious reasons) Quote $query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE ad='3' AND state='$state1'"; Here is what I thought would work, but it displays every listing in my database when I do it this way. Quote $query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE ad='3' OR ad='1' AND state='$state1'"; Thank you in advance for your answers, google is not being so kind to me right now. Similar TutorialsI am very new to php and am trying to create a simple application that uploads a PDF file to a database. I have one field for the Volume Number and on file field for the PDF to be uploaded. My issue is i can't get the PDF to upload or insert the name of the pdf (eg volume1.pdf) into the data base. I would also like to point out that I know i have a low post count, but i only seek help when i truly need it and have exhausted all other resources... Here is what i have, please go easy on me this is my first round at php: Code: [Select] <?php if(isset($_POST['submit'])){ $vol_num = $_POST['vol_num']; $pdf = $_FILES['pdf']['name']; $path = '../pdf/'.$_FILES['pdf']['name']; move_uploaded_file($_FILES["pdf"]["tmp_name"], $path); mysql_query("INSERT INTO volumes set vol_num='$vol_num', vol_link='$pdf'") or die (mysql_error()); echo "<script>location.href='add_volume.php'</script>"; } ?> what am i doing wrong here? Thanks in advance when in a form, I wish to build a conditional that if the response to a radio button is a value of 2 (female), it will display an input requesting for users maiden name. If not 2 goes to the next input statement. Here is code I was experimenting with: <html> <body> <form action="" name="test" method='POST'> <input type="radio" id="sex" value=1 checked><label>Male</label> <input type="radio" id="sex" value=2><label>Femaleale</label> <?php $result = "value"; if ($result == 2) echo "<input type='int' id='gradYear' size='3' required>"; else echo "Not a female!" ?> <input type="submit" value="GO"> </form> </body> </html> The code passes debug, however, Not a Female is displayed. My question is - Can I do this and if so, what value do I test against id='sex' or value. I tried each one but gave the same results. I realize that $_POST[sex] would be used after the submit button is clicked. But this has me stumped. Thanks for the assis in advance. i saw this in a php function page he http://php.net/manual/en/function.stristr.php the line is if(stristr($string, 'earth') === FALSE) { specifically this this code <?php $string = 'Hello World!'; if(stristr($string, 'earth') === FALSE) { echo '"earth" not found in string'; } // outputs: "earth" not found in string ?> what is the significance of the '===' in there does it mean something? is there any difference from the '==' or the '=' ? Need some help I have 2 tables in a database and I need to search the first table and use the results from that search, to search another table, can this be done? and if it can how would you recommend that I go about it? Thanks For Your Help Guys! Right now I'm working on a simple register form and I have included the theme. I set up a div and positioned the div below the register form to output any error in red text. If I were to use code like this if(empty($_POST['username']) || empty($_POST['password']) || empty($_POST['email']) || empty($_POST['Veremail'])){ $required_info = "All three fields are required to continue!"; } It will not work, because I don't have a die(); or end(); function, so it will display: " All three fields are required to continue! and You have been successfully registered! " BUT IT'S IN THE CORRECT PLACE UNDER THE FORM WHERE I PLACED THE DIV. So I made this change if(empty($_POST['username']) || empty($_POST['password']) || empty($_POST['email']) || empty($_POST['Veremail'])){ $required_info = die("All three fields are required to continue!"); } and it worked fine, but now, the words are not positioned under the form, but at the bottom of the page, I'm wondering how I would end that script, but align the text so it displays underneath the form, and not at the bottom of the page? If you don't understand ask me please. I want to know can we do text formatting to a result coming from echo if so then kindly guide how? I need make error lower then 3 and higher then 15 how should i add higher then 15? Code: [Select] if (strlen($searchTerms) < 3) { $error[] = "Add more then 3 symbols and less then 15!"; }else { $searchTermDB = mysql_real_escape_string($searchTerms); // prevent sql injection. } The result pages is supposed to have pagination like google help me please
I'm just learning php and I've created a test shopping website. Everything is working well, but I need help with the following: This is my products table in the database: "CREATE TABLE products ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, product_name varchar(255) NOT NULL, price varchar(16) NOT NULL, details text NOT NULL, category varchar(16) NOT NULL, subcategory varchar(16) NOT NULL, date_added date NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id), UNIQUE KEY product_name (product_name) ) "; I have 3 subcategories: Hats, Pants and Shirts. On my index page I have links to these three items. This is my products.php code. When run it shows all the items in the 3 subcategories. How do I change the code so that this page display only the Hats when someone clicks on the Hats link? <?php // Connect to the MySQL database include "storescripts/connect_to_mysql.php"; $dynamicList = ""; $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY subcategory DESC"); $productCount = mysql_num_rows($sql); // count the output amount if ($productCount > 0) { while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){ $id = $row["id"]; $product_name = $row["product_name"]; $price = $row["price"]; $date_added = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row["date_added"])); $dynamicList .= '<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6"> <tr> <td width="17%" valign="top"><a href="product.php?id=' . $id .

While going through an instructional book, I ran across some code that I didn't immediately understand. I've stripped it down to the relevant bits: function example($object_a, $object_b) { $compare = $object_a->id == $object_b->id; return another_function('argument 1') && $compare || another_function('argument 2'); } My first confusion was this line: $compare = $object_a->id == $object_b->id; Does this set $compare to TRUE if the ids match and FALSE if they do not? And the second confusion: return another_function('argument 1') && $compare || another_function('argument 2'); What is returned if the ids match? What is returned if they are different? When I try testing this out on my machine, it returns both functions whether or not the ids match, but I know that's not what's supposed to happen. Can anyone break this down for me? Thanks. Hi all How do I modify the below code to search multiple tables in mySQL database? $query = "select * from store_items where description like \"%$trimmed%\" or title like \"%$trimmed%\" or dimensions like \"%$trimmed%\" order by id ASC"; $numresults=mysql_query($query); $numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults); It is for a search function and I need it to search another table called 'about_text' and 'faq_text' Thanks Pete So I am extending the DateTime class and would like to completely disable the modify() function that is built in so i have this: Code: [Select] <?php class NewDateTime extends DateTime { public function modify() { throw new Exception('modify() has been disabled.'); } } thats not the entire class description, just the pertinent part of course now any time I create a new object from NewDateTime I get this message at the top of the screen: Quote Strict Standards: Declaration of NewDateTime::modify() should be compatible with that of DateTime::modify() in C:\xampp\htdocs\.....my file path here.....\NewDateTime.php on line 62 what gives? how do I get rid of this and still disable modify()? I'm betting its a setting that i have wonky but I am really rusty in php so dont know where to look in php.ini hello. i want to know what is *$ or +$ because i see it in many contact forms. also, what is the difference between these: /^[A-Z]+[a-z]*$/ /^[A-Z]+[a-z]+$/ /^[A-Z]+[a-z]$/ /^[A-Z]+[a-z]/ also, which is the shortest and efficient method of checking somebodys name to be exactly "Name Surname" - "Green Trancer" ? in my form, i use var filter = /^[A-Z]+[a-z]*$/; var filter2 = /^[A-Z]+[a-z]+\s+[A-Z]+[a-z]+$/; and then i check the name to be like filter or filter2. how can i check that between the words to be exactly one space character ? thank you very much. Hey people! I've been setting a coding script for experience and this is my situation: To buy a virtual flower, one needs to have 50 virtual coins. So I first extract the number of coins the person has from the DB. If the user doesn't have the sufficient number of coins, the BUY button will not be available and vice versa. When the BUY button is clicked, I update the database, adding the flower to the user's inventory and subtracting 50 from the total number of coins the user has. This I do in that page itself using if(isset($_POST['submit'])) Now, I need to know how I could check whether the user has at least 50 coins even if the button is available. I hope that you could understand this. I want to do it for validation purposes. Its to prevent the user spending the coins he has in another browser window and then returning to the visible button to click it. I hope that I make sense. Thanks in advance!

I usually work with C#, but I'm doing a website right now and have a question:
I want a picture in my header and when I change the window size the image may not move.
My code so far:
#a1 { position: relative; top:-175px; left:0px; width:50px; height:50px; background-image:url(http://domain.png); background-repeat:no-repeat;} </style>Hope someone can answer this question easy How can I use an include file that has a list of links in any directory at my website without breaking those links? You can see it in action here... The links in this directory work... https://www.billelgin.com/primary-directory/ The links in this directory (being created from the same include file) do not work... https://www.billelgin.com/primary-directory/subsection-one/ Obviously the problem is the include file is being called from different directories, so it's breaking the relative path links in the include file, but what can I do to fix it? You can download the example directory structure here... https://www.billelgin.com/EXAMPLE.zip Wow, am I glad I found this forum! I spent the past few hours trying to modify a PHP/mySQL script in order to test it. What this script does is basically look up a mySQL database (based on ip2nation) to find out what country and currency the IP address belongs to. This is the code sample: Code: [Select] $sql = 'SELECT c.country, c.curr_code FROM ip2nationcountries c, ip2nation i WHERE i.ip < INET_ATON("24.24.24.24") AND c.code = i.country ORDER BY i.ip DESC LIMIT 0,1'; $countryName = $db->get_sql_row($sql); I tested the code in PHPmyAdmin and it returns 2 rows: country ------- curr_code (row names) United States ------- USD (actual values) So basically 2 variables, United States and USD. Now comes the problem, in order to test the script for several countries, I need to be able to "override" the result in the PHP script I tried to do that by commenting out the part that returns the result from the mySQL query and modifying it with the following style, but I think I'm doing something wrong: Code: [Select] ### $countryName = $db->get_sql_row($sql); ### $countryName = "United States USD"; Is there any way that I can temporarily override the result returned by mySQL and "fake it" so to say? I understand the mySQL query returns 2 rows, so how would I go about overriding 2 rows? I hope this makes sense ...you're all my last hope. Alright, so I just started picking up PHP again and I have a pretty simple question. I have a html form that takes a string then writes it on another page. My problem is when I use quotations I'll get slashes in them on the page it writes the string on. Is there a way to clean that stuff up? i have a dictionary - THIS IS obviously a python dictionary an this has approx 8 000 lines with records [/CODE] $ python printer.py {'url': 'http://www.site1_com' 'cname': 'butcher', 'name': 'cheng', 'email': 'mail1@hotmail.com'} {'url': 'http://www.site2_com' 'cname': 'dilbert', 'name': 'James', 'email': 'mail2@hotmail.com'} [code=auto:0]i have a mysql-db up and runing in my opensuse there i have created a db with the fields url cname name i use the import MySQLdb i studied this documentation he http://stackoverflow...abase-in-python but i think this goes a bit over my head. - well how can i get the data ( in other words the dictionary) into the database? love to hear from you greetings helllo dear php-commmunity new to Ruby - i need some advices - i plan to do some requests in osm-files. (openstreetmap) Question - how can i store the results on a Database - eg mysql or - (if you prefer postgresql) - note: my favorite db - at least at the moment is mysql here the code require 'open-uri' require "net/http" require 'rexml/document' def query_overpass(object_type, left,bottom,right,top, key, value) base_url = "http://www.overpass-api.de/api/xapi?" query_string = "#{object_type}[bbox=#{left},#{bottom},#{right},#{top}][#{key}=#{value}]" url = "#{base_url}#{URI.encode(query_string)}" resp = Net::HTTP.get_response(URI.parse(url)) data = resp.body return data end overpass_result = REXML::Document.new(query_overpass("node", 7.1,51.2,7.2,51.3,"amenity","restaurant|pub|ice_cream|food_court|fast_food|cafe|biergarten|bar|bakery|steak|pasta|pizza|sushi|asia|nightclub")) overpass_result.elements.each('osm/node') {|x| if !x.elements["tag[@k='name']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='name']"].attributes["v"] end print " | " if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:postcode']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:postcode']"].attributes["v"] print ", " end if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:city']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:city']"].attributes["v"] print ", " end if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:street']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:street']"].attributes["v"] print ", " end if !x.elements["tag[@k='addr:housenumber']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='addr:housenumber']"].attributes["v"] end print " | " print x.attributes["lat"] print " | " print x.attributes["lon"] print " | " if !x.elements["tag[@k='website']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='website']"].attributes["v"] end print " | " if !x.elements["tag[@k='amenity']"].nil? print x.elements["tag[@k='amenity']"].attributes["v"] print " | " end puts } look forward to hear from you again - i would love to store it on a mysql - database - if possible. If you would prefer postgresql - then i would takte this one.... ;-) look forward to hear from you again - i would love to store it on a mysql - database - if possible. If you would prefer postgresql - then i would takte this one.... ;-) well - i guess that the answer to this will be the same no matter what language we are using. If the db is a sql database we need to design the database schema and create the tables in the database. The first step in accessing a db in our code is to get a connection to it. If ruby is our choice of language, a search for "ruby sql connector" will give us lots of options to read about. Well - we also can do it in PHP. What do you think!? Next, based on the schema we have designed, we need to create queries suitable for storing the data. We will likely need to consider our transactional model. Again, searching "ruby sql transactional model" will give us plenty of food for thought. Finally, we may want or need to close the connection to the database. |
