PHP - Prasing Txt File. Max Number Of Operations Stopping Script.

Hey there,

this I've no idea how can be done with PHP.
I'm looking for a way to randomly select a 7 digits number from a *.txt and then print it on a webpage.

Do any one know how can this be done?


Thank you.

I am currently working on an application to schedule conferences.  I have everything completed to create a conference including start time and duration.  The problem I have now though is how do I monitor MySQL for the conferences that are created and perform actions when the duration of the conference is up? I was looking into MySQL events but those seem to be only internal events and are not able to execute anything outside of that. I was thinking about a infinite loop that queries MySQL and sleeps for one second but thought that this might be a lot of load on the server. Any thoughts I really appreciate it.

I have a bunch of pdf's and I want to extract text from the last page of every pdf. I have a function to count the number of pages in each pdf.

Does anyone know of a way that I could extract file from a specified file and page number.
example:   getData('example.pdf', 54);

Hi All, I am not quite sure if this is possible - but here goes. I have a webpage hit counter that uses PHP and saves the counter totals in .txt files. I have gotten the code to print out the comma (thousand separator) fine on the page, however, I would like to have that comma in the text file also. I display the counters on separate pages using <?php include("file.txt");?> and the counter shows up as "12345" when I'd like it to read the text as "12,345". Basically, I just want that comma written to the actual text file if possible so that when it's included on a web page, it displays the thousands separator. Any help would be great. Thank You!

Here is a portion of my code:
Code: [Select]
/* Turn error notices off */
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

/* Get page and log file names */
$page = input($_GET['page']) or die('ERROR: Missing page ID');
$logfile = 'logs/' . $page . '.txt';

/* Does the log exist? */
if (file_exists($logfile))
{
/* Get current count */
$count = intval(trim(file_get_contents($logfile))) or $count = 0;
$cname = 'tcount_unique_'.$page;

if ($count_unique==0 || !isset($_COOKIE[$cname]))
    {
/* Increase the count by 1 */
$count = $count + 1;
$fp = @fopen($logfile,'w+') or die('ERROR: Can\'t write to the log file ('.$logfile.'), please make sure this file exists and is CHMOD to 666 (rw-rw-rw-)!');
flock($fp, LOCK_EX);
fputs($fp, $count);
flock($fp, LOCK_UN);
fclose($fp);

/* Print the Cookie and P3P compact privacy policy */
header('P3P: CP="NOI NID"');
setcookie($cname, 1, time()+60*60*$unique_hours);
}

/* Is zero-padding enabled? */
    if ($min_digits > 0)
    {
    $count = sprintf('%0'.$min_digits.'s',$count);
    }

    /* Print out Javascript code and exit */
    echo "document.write('".number_format($count)."');";
    exit();
}
else
{
    die('ERROR: Invalid log file!');
}

I'm pretty sure this is really simple to do using the count function, but I am having a hard time finding examples on how to count the number of times a "SPECIFIC" word occurs in a file. For example, I just want to display how many times "this-word" occurs in "http://www.mysite.com/logfile.log". Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, all: been trying to convert this little single-file upload to multiple by naming each file form-field as "userfile[]" as it's supposed to automatically treat them as an array.. but no luck!  Can you guide me as to what am I doing wrong??
appreciate the help!


Code: [Select]
<?php

if (!isset($_REQUEST["seenform"])) {
?>
   <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="#" method="post">
   Upload file: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" id="userfile[]">
   Upload file: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" id="userfile[]">
   <input type="submit" value="Upload">
   <input type="hidden" name="seenform">
   </form>
<?php
} 
else 
{ // upload begins
$userfiles = array($_FILES['userfile']);
foreach ($userfiles as $userfile)
{ // foreach begins
   $uploaded_dir = "uploads/";
   $userfile = $_FILES['userfile']["name"];
   $path = $uploaded_dir . $userfile;
   if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']["tmp_name"], $path)) 
     {
   print "$userfile file moved";
   // do something with the file here
    } else 
{
   print "Move failed";
}
} // foreach ends
} // upload ends

?>

Hey all

So have been working on a file upload script, it was uploading the file but also adding the path name instead of NULL to mysql when no image was to upload, that is now fixed however now it won't upload the actual image to the directory.  I tried undoing the mysql changes but it still won't upload the image to the directory.  Am testing on my own computer using xampp so no file permission issues, plus it was working before.  Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

I have below script. it does the while loop 100%. it updates the mysql database one at a time as it should. the problem I have now is that the while loop does not end and go to the next statement as it should. it keeps pollong the database. so when in back end you change to 0 it automatically updates again.

Please see if you can help me to see where I can stop this while loop when there are no more loops

I have the following code that cycles though and prints out the day of the week and stops printing after the seventh day is reached, but it keeps looping. How do I stop it from looping after 7? I thought I had it right, but it's not. Can anyone help?

I'm writing PHP for my son's cub scout pack.  It populates the MySQL db users table from data contained in a csv file. 
So far, it puts the scout's info in just fine...until I try to run another query as a nested query to retrieve the auto-generated userID for the scout that was just placed in the DB.

The result of this if I don't include the second query--the one trying to get the new userID for that scout, it iterates through the whole file as expected and puts all the scouts in the users table.  The second I uncomment the 2nd query and try to get it to run, it only puts the 1st scout in the DB, properly retrieves the newly generated userID for him, and then stops. 

I need to have this userID for the scout to properly associate that scout with the parents later on and in other sections of this project. 

the db_connect() function just creates the PDO object and contains the username, etc for the connection.  That part is working fine so I'm not posting that function here.

I've tried renaming the connection, query, etc to add "ID" to the end to ensure I wasn't trampling on var names, but that hasn't made a difference

I have a script which registers people to a database, however it doing something very strange.  Whenever I place it into even a single CSS div it adds the registration to the dabase but stops loading the next page (index.php)

I find this totally bizarre as I haven't seen anything like this behave before.  With CSS affecting how PHP works.  Especially when the CSS is not inside the <php> of <form> tags.

The code I am using designed to display the terms I am using in my search.

For example:

.php?description=red&purple&widgets displays red and purple widgets.

However, I am also echoing the terms so people know what they are searching for:

"Your are searching for red and purple widgets"

However, by using the & sign it now displays "Your are searching for red"

If I using .php?description=red%purple%widgets then nothing is displayed.


Code: [Select]
function sanitizeString($description)
{
$description = mysql_real_escape_string($description);
$description = stripslashes($description);
$description = htmlentities($description);
return $var;
