PHP - Simple Dynamic List*
Hi there, I'm a movie freak and I'm planning of building a simple dynamic movie list. There are some movie lister software available on internet, but I want it lighter and customized. Here is the idea:
It looks like yahoo mail inbox...I want to create this script based on php and sql. I think this is the right place where can I get some help. Thanks in advance. NaimeniM Similar TutorialsHi , I have one question .. Can I split showing of content of dynamic list in 2 parts , when I echo list in code .. Code: [Select] <?php // Run a select query to get my letest 8 items // Connect to the MySQL database include "../connect_to_mysql.php"; $dynamicList = ""; $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY date_added DESC LIMIT 8"); $productCount = mysql_num_rows($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="2" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"> <tr> <td width="17%" valign="top"><a href="product.php?id=' . $id . '"><img style="border:#666 1px solid;" src="inventory_images/' . $id . '.jpg" alt="' . $product_name . '" width="77" height="102" border="2" /></a></td> <td width="83%" valign="top">' . $product_name . '<br /> $' . $price . '<br /> <a href="product.php?id=' . $id . '">View Product Details</a></td> </tr> </table>'; } } else { $dynamicList = "We have no products listed in our store yet"; } mysql_close(); ?> Code: [Select] <p><?php echo $dynamicList; ?><br /> </p> It works ok, and putting my files, everything works, but when I put 8 pictures with price and other details, it just show one image with details and another image below with details, and the third image below and so on .. Can I split dynamic list to show 4 images with details on the left side and 4 on the right side? Thank you in advance for help , if is possible Hello PhpFreaks... been a while since I stopped by. I need to reach out for some assistance. The task I am trying to complete seems so simple, but I can't get my brain around it and have searched through these forums and the almighty google and have not found what I need. So here is what I need some directions on. I am trying to create a multi-level un-ordered list using PHP & MySQL. It is going to be a database driven menu with an unknown number of parent items with 0 or more child items. Surely I am not the first one to need to solve this problem, but cannot find the simplest solution that gets me what I want. Ok.. so I got a table setup like this with some test data in it.... Code: [Select] CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `navigation` ( `linkId` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `displayName` varchar(255) NOT NULL, `url` varchar(255) NOT NULL, `parentId` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', PRIMARY KEY (`linkId`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=11 ; INSERT INTO `navigation` (`linkId`, `displayName`, `url`, `parentId`) VALUES (1, 'Home', '/', 0), (2, 'City Hall', '/city_hall/', 0), (3, 'City Council', '/city_council', 0), (4, 'Upcoming Meetings', '/city_council/upcoming_meetings.php', 3), (5, 'Past Minutes', '/city_council/past_minutes', 3), (6, 'Council Members', '/city_council/council_members.php', 3), (7, 'Forms & Downloads', '/downloads', 0), (8, 'Parks & Recreation', '/parks', 0), (9, 'Park Name', '/parks/park.php', 8), (10, 'Another Link', '/parks/link2.php', 8); I have a query and loop that grabs the entire menu, and places it in 2 arrays to separate the top-level parent items and the items that have a parent id != 0. $items = $db->getData("SELECT linkId, displayName, url, parentId FROM navigation ORDER BY parentId, linkId ASC"); while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($items['result'])) { if ($row->parentId == 0) { $parent_menu[$row->linkId]['label'] = $row->displayName; $parent_menu[$row->linkId]['link'] = $row->url; } else { $sub_menu[$row->linkId]['parent'] = $row->parentId; $sub_menu[$row->linkId]['label'] = $row->displayName; $sub_menu[$row->linkId]['link'] = $row->url; } } That gives me an array that looks like this. Code: [Select] Array( [1] => Array ( [label] => Home [link] => / ) [2] => Array ( [label] => City Hall [link] => /city_hall/ ) [3] => Array( [label] => City Council [link] => /city_council ) [7] => Array( [label] => Forms & Downloads [link] => /downloads ) [8] => Array( [label] => Parks & Recreation [link] => /parks ) ) Array ( [4] => Array( [parent] => 3 [label] => Upcoming Meetings [link] => /city_council/upcoming_meetings.php ) [5] => Array( [parent] => 3 [label] => Past Minutes [link] => /city_council/past_minutes ) [6] => Array( [parent] => 3 [label] => Council Members [link] => /city_council/council_members.php ) [9] => Array( [parent] => 8 [label] => Park Name [link] => /parks/park.php ) [10] => Array( [parent] => 8 [label] => Another Link [link] => /parks/link2.php ) ) Taking that array and doing a couple loops, gets me close (sorta.. I realize that there needs to be recursion for this to work). echo '<ul>'."\r\n"; foreach($parent_menu as $pid => $pvalue){ echo ' <li><a href="'.$pvalue['link'].'">'.$pvalue['label'].'</a>'."\r\n"; foreach($sub_menu as $sid => $svalue){ if($svalue['parent'] == $pid){ echo ' <li>'.$svalue['label'].'</li>'."\r\n"; } } echo '</li>'."\r\n"; } echo '</ul>'."\r\n"; That gets me a list that is not quite correct markup. The nested <ul> items are missing because I could not determine the best way to do this. The goal for the data presented here is to be marked up like this. Code: [Select] <ul> <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> <li><a href="/city_hall">City Hall</a></li> <li><a href="/city_council">City Council</a> <ul> <li><a href="/city_council/upcoming_meetings.php">Upcoming Meetings</a></li> <li><a href="/city_council/past_minutes">Past Minutes</a></li> <li><a href="/city_council/council_members.php">Council Members</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="/downloads">Forms & Downloads</a></li> <li><a href="/parks">Parks & Recreation</a> <ul> <li><a href="/parks/park.php">Park 1</a></li> <li><a href="/parks/link2.php">Another Link</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> Thats where I am at here. Any ideas or tips would be helpful and appreciated. So anyone solved this problem before? Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to give all information and code that I have. Thanks in advance, Nathan Hello all, I found this dynamic checkbox list online. I have changed it to suit my needs, added some of my own parts but now, after getting past all the terminal errors, it now produces absolutely nothing. Can I get some help on why there is no echo occurring? Thanks! <?php function dynamic_checkbox_table ($sql_str, $col_label, $col_name, $val_checked, $cant_cols_tbl){ $sql_str = dynamic_checkbox_table("SELECT * FROM Categories"); $col_label = "catlevel3"; $col_name = "catlevel3"; $val_checked="S"; $cant_cols_tbl=3; //connect DB and run query $db="TB"; $db_user=""; $pass=""; $host="localhost"; @mysql_connect($host,$db_user,$pass); @mysql_select_db($db) or die ("cannot connect to DB"); $q_resultado = mysql_query($sql_str); mysql_close(); if (mysql_num_rows($q_resultado)==0) exit("no rows returned"); $next_row = mysql_fetch_array($q_resultado); //fetch first row $output = "<table border=\"1\">\n"; //open table tag do { $output .= "<tr>\n"; //open row tag for ($i=1 ; $i <= $cant_cols_tbl ; $i++ ){ //loops as many times as $cant_cols_tbl $row=$next_row; $output .= "<td>"; //open TD tag $output .= (!$row) ?

I have an ajax-powered form with a select (dropdown) field populated through a php function. Based on the user-selected values in this field, data is displayed on the webpage; i.e. selected value 1 returns values x and y on the page. I am now trying to call additional data (value z) from a different table in the same database, and as before, use the selected values from the dropdown to display the data. For some reason, value z is not changing according to the user-selected value. This is my code: [The function to populate the select field] Code: [Select] function kfl_get_funds_names() { $result = array(); $result['CDF'] = 'Crosby Dragon Fund'; $result['CPF'] = 'Crosby Phoenix Fund'; $result['AMZPIF'] = 'AMZ Plus Income Fund'; $result['KASBIIF'] = 'KASB Islamic Income Opportunity'; $result['KASBCPGF'] = 'KASB Capital Protected Gold Fund'; $result['KASBLF'] = 'KASB Income Opportunity Fund'; $result['KASBCF'] = 'KASB Cash Fund'; $result['KASBBF'] = 'KASB Asset Allocation Fund'; $result['KASBSMF'] = 'KASB Stock Market Fund'; return $result; } [the code calling and using the function to interact with the database] Code: [Select] $funds_to_display = kfl_get_funds_names(); $current_symbol = key( $funds_to_display ); $current_nav_rates = kfl_get_latest_rates( $current_symbol ); [the code calling additional data, value z, from the database, and using the info in the select field to filter it] Code: [Select] $cutoff = kfl_cutoff( $current_symbol ); The display of each of these items is as follows: Code: [Select] <?php echo $current_nav_rates['nav_date']; ?> <?php echo $funds_to_display[$current_symbol]; ?> <?php echo $cutoff['cutoff']; ?> I can't get the $cutoff code to display the correct values. It picks up the first symbol to display and doesn't change with user selection. The code for the selection box, by the way: Code: [Select] <select id="dailynav-funds" autocomplete="off" name="dnf"> <?php foreach ($funds_to_display as $fund_symbol => $fund_name) { echo '<option'; if( $fund_symbol == $current_symbol ) { echo ' selected="selected"'; } echo ' value="' . $fund_symbol . '">'; echo $fund_name; echo '</option>'; } ?> </select> I've tried to get data using $_GET['dnf'] into the cutoff code, but that throws up parse errors. What am I doing wrong, and how can I resolve this issue? Thanks in advance! Hello,, I have looked for numerous examples, and have only got part of the answer. I have successfully populated a drop down list by reading the database. It populates with a list of quest titles. Once the user selects the quest. I want a textbox to populate with the Quest Description. I found an example that uses AJAX/PHP to do this, but it doesn't access a db to read/populate. The main code is in index.html The original example you select a country, and it populates a text field with the currency code. It passes a variable called $country to another file called find_ccode.php. I changed the first case in find_ccode.php to access my database, and populate the text box with quest description. Ideally I will like to make this case dynamic based off QuestID, would populate textbox with corresponding Quest Description (QDescrip). I then tried the other way in index.php I dynamically populated the dropdown list, and gave the option values the QuestIDs to be passed to $country, but something isn't working. I have a write files command to let me know what the $country variable is passing, and it never writes. It works in index.html though. I apologize in advance for my amateurish coding. I still have a lot to learn. I have included the code below, but if you know a more elegant way of doing it. I am creating a role-playing game, as you probably have figured out by now. I hope to one day put it on the web, but right now using it as a way of learning html, and PHP. I really want to know how to catch the value of the dropdown box. I would like to know what it is before sending over. also what is this.value. I assume this is what the value of the dropdown box is when you have selected something. I have been beating my head for days trying to figure this out. Any help is very much appreciated!

Hello All, I am new to php and programming in general. My question is as follows. I have created a header.inc.php and the index.php which includes header.inc.php. I have title set in header.inc.php under the "head". Code: [Select] <title><?php echo $title; ?> In the index.php, I have set variable $title to "Home Page" $title = "Home Page"; But whenever I visit index.php, the title is never called. Is it because the header has no clue where the $title is? This might be a very easy problem to solve. I am literally brand new to php. I am trying to create a simple site that will load content depending on what page 'id' is in the URL and if it doesn't exist to show a page for that scenario. eg index.php?id=1 will show the page 1.php It works fine apart from showing an error when there is no id at all, eg www.website.com will show an error but www.website.com/index.php?id=1 will show a page I want to be able to show the homepage if there is no 'id' at all. Code: [Select] <?php $id = $_GET['id']; if(file_exists("./".$id.".php")) { include ("./".$id.".php"); } else { include ("404.php"); } ?> Any help is appreciated Thanks I have lists of links in different pages. I want to add an option for the visitors to add favorite ones to a list (like add to cart in shopping sites), and finally see the links selected in a page. This is based on the visitor's browser cookies. What is the simple way to do this (without database). Actually I need a function to save the items in the browser cookies and then retrieve them.

Here is the Image link: Quote http://img27.imageshack.us/i/shoppingheader1.jpg/ PHP Variable that holds the Domain name is: $domain All i need the Dynamic PHP Codes that i can put on all my sites to generate this Text on Image (Header) Dynamically... May Anyone Help me with this Please? Cheers Natasha T. Hi all I need to combine these two scripts: Firstly, the following decides which out of the following list is selected based on its value in the mySQL table: <select name="pack_choice"> <option value="Meters / Pack"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="Meters / Pack") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Meters / Pack (m2)</option> <option value="m3"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="m3") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Meters / Pack (m3)</option> <option value="Quantity"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="Quantity") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Quantity</option> </select> Although this works OK, I need it also to show dynamic values like this: select name="category"> <?php $listCategories=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `product_categories` ORDER BY id ASC"); while($categoryReturned=mysql_fetch_array($listCategories)) { echo "<option value=\"".$categoryReturned['name']."\">".$categoryReturned['name']."</option>"; } ?> </select> I'm not sure if this is possible? Many thanks for your help. Pete Hi, In my mysql database i have a text input option, in the registration form and edit my details form i have a multiple select dropdown list, which user selects options to populate the text input box, which ultimately populates the text field in the mysql database. All works perfectly. The dropdownlist consists of 3 parts <optgroups> first is current selection (what is the usesr current selection)works fine, The second <optgroup> is existing words, what words we(the site) have given as options, and the third <optgroup> is the words that others have used. This is where im having a small problem. Because its a text field when i call the data from the database, it calls the entire text box as a single option in my select list.. I want to break the words in the text field (at the comma) and have them listed each one as an option in the select list. Example what i need: Words in text box:(my input allows the "comma") word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, word6, How i want them called/displayed: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> here's my code: $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $original_functionsexperience =doSelectSql($query,1); $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $functionsexperiencelist=doSelectSql($query); $funcexpList ="<select multiple=\"multiple\" onchange=\"setFunctionsexperience(this.options)\">"; foreach ($functionsexperiencelist as $functionsexperienceal) { $selected=""; if ($functionsexperienceals->allwords == $original_functionsexperience) $selected=' selected="selected"'; $allwords=$functionsexperienceal->allwords; $funcexpList .= "<optgroup label=\"Current selection\"> <option value=\"".$allwords."\" ".$selected." >".$allwords."</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Existing Words\"> <option value=\"existing1,\">existing1</option> <option value=\"existing2,\">existing2</option> <option value=\"existing3,\">existing3</option> <option value=\"existing4,\">existing4</option> <option value=\"existing5,\">existing5</option> <option value=\"existing6,\">existing6</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Others added\"> //heres problem <option value=\"".$allwordsgeneral."\">".$allwordsgeneral."</option> </optgroup>"; } $funcexpList.="</select>"; $output['FUNCEXPLIST']=$funcexpList; The result im getting for optgroup others added: word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, how can i get it like this: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> Hi, I use the following code to create a select menu from an array of options stored in LISTS.php: include 'LISTS.php'; print('<select id="from" name="from">'); foreach ($langList as $lang) {printf('<option %s>%s</option>', ($from1 == $lang ? 'selected="selected"' : ''), $lang); } echo '</select>'; where LISTS.php includes the following: $langList = array(' ','English', 'French', 'German', 'Dutch', 'Spanish'); This works great, but now I want to do something similar with a checkbox list, where each checkbox has an associated 'onchange' javascript function and I'm getting pretty stuck. My checkbox list is of the following form: Code: [Select] <html> <ul style="height: 95px; overflow: auto; width: 200px; border: 1px solid #480091; list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> <li id="li1b"><label for="chk1b"><input name="chk1b" id="chk1b" type="checkbox" onchange="function1('chk1b','li1b')">Option1</label></li> <li id="li2b"><label for="chk2b"><input name="chk2b" id="chk2b" type="checkbox" onchange="function1('chk2b','li2b')">Option2</label></li> //etc. </ul> </html> What I want to do is have 'Option1', 'Option2', etc. stored in an array in LISTS.php and have a PHP script that populates the checkbox list accordingly, in a similar manner to my select menu above. I can't work out how to get the ID of the next <li> and the next <input> in the list to go up by one each time, e.g. 'li1b' then 'li2b', 'li3b', etc. Could someone pls help me out? Thanks! |
