PHP - Stepping Through All Array Keys On Returned $query
I'm trying to develop some php that will execute a MySQL query and move the results into XML. In this particular instance, only one record is expected to be returned, and that one row will contain all the customer data, such as last name, first name, address1, etc.
While I can get my code to work and create the xml if I hard-code in all the keys (MySQL column names), I would like it to dynamically step through all the keys/MySQL column names so that if the db changes later (add more columns, for instance) the code generating the XML won't need to be altered. It should take the MySQL column name, create an element based on the column name, then create a text node and insert the value. Currently I'm just at the spot of testing by echoing the appropriate key/value pairs. The code is stopping after the first key/value without going through the rest of the columns. What do I need to do in order to get it to dynamically step through each column and get the key/value? Here's the relevant code: if($_POST['buscode']) {echo "buscode is: ".$_POST['buscode']."<HR>";} else {echo "ERROR WITH RETRIEVING BUSCODE<HR>";} $buscode = $_POST['buscode']; $query = "SELECT * " ."FROM customers " ."WHERE buscode = '$buscode'"; echo "Query will be: ".$query."<HR>"; $result = mysql_query($query); if($result){echo "Success retrieving data from ats_ajax.<HR>";} else{echo "Error retrieving data from ats_ajax\; MySQL error is:".mysql_error($result)."<HR>";} //////////////////////////////////////// // Let's test getting the keys and values from the array.... /////////////////////////////////////// while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { echo "This is step ".$i."<BR>"; $key = key($row); echo "Key is: ".$key."<BR>"; echo "Value is: ".$row[$key]."<BR>"; $i++; }//close of while Similar TutorialsSay I have this array: Code: [Select] <?php $array = array('one' => array(), 'two' => array(), '_three' => array()); ?> How could I sort that array so it ends up like so: Code: [Select] Array ( [_three] => Array ( ) [one] => Array ( ) [two] => Array ( ) ) Thanks!! Hi, I'm trying to step through this array when the "further " button is pressed and it should change the image in the div when I echo it out. I'm getting the following error Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in C:\wamp\www\SUN_DRAGON_GAME\gamestart.php on line 224 here is the array Code: [Select] $currentLocation = array ( 'teardrop_ocean_bg' => array ( 'level_1'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME.jpg'/>'", 'level_2'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME2.jpg'/>'", 'level_3'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME3.jpg'/>'", 'level_4'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME.jpg'/>'", 'level_5'=>"<img src='<img src='sundragon_environments/ocean/ocean1_FRAME.jpg'/>'" ) ); and here is the code I'm using to try to step through the "teardrop_ocean" array. Code: [Select] $currentLocation='teardrop_ocean';//declare variables/this is set after we click on image map link for teardrop $currentLocArray=''; //the following is set after we click on the teardrop ocean link on the image map . //check if the current location is teardrop ocean, if so, set current loc array to the teardrop ocean bg array. if($currentLocation=='teardrop_ocean'&& !empty($_POST['further'])) { $currentLocArray=$currentLocation['teardrop_ocean_bg']; } //if in teardrop, and further is pressed, go to next element, which is a new img src background. if($currentLocArray==$currentLocation['teardrop_ocean_bg']&& !empty($_POST['further'])) { next($currentLocation['teardrop_ocean_bg']); } any help greatly appreciated. Thanks. Derek Am currently using this code, and actually thinking about it should split the query to an include in order to allow for other database drivers, on the chance we may decide to ditch the old MySQL. But I digress from the question. Code: [Select] include($lib."dbconfig.php"); $q = 'SELECT * FROM file WHERE this = "'.$that'"; $result = mysql_query($q); if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) If the query doesn't pick up a row I'm getting this error yo, Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in D:\webpages\*\*\admin.php on line 553 So what would be a better way of testing if the query was successful? Hi there, Basic question, but I can't seem to find a page in the PHP docs that answers (though I'm sure such a one exists, I just can't seem to think up the right search terms - anyway) My question is: is there a short-hand way to use a value from an associative array as the key in another associative array? So for example, given this array: $the_array = array(0 => array('name': 'the_name', 'value' : 'the_value'), 1 => etc....); then this kind of foreach loop doesn't work Code: [Select] $new_data = array(); foreach($the_array as $element){ $new_data[$element['name']] = $element['value']; } Obviously I can just save out the values, like $name = $element['name'] --- but I was just wondering if there was a more efficient way to do it? Cheers, PS. I tried encapsulating with {} - i.e. $new_data[{$element['name']}] --- but that also fails. Have a web page that displays a number of update forms depending on the amout of records that get returned from a mysql query, if query returns 4 records then the page will display 4 identical forms, the trouble i'm having is getting the each of the 4 forms to display a different record as at the moment they all show just first record of query. I have played around with loops but not getting anywhere which may be due to my limited knowledge code for page is below Code: [Select] <?php $numberofrow =mysql_num_rows($Recordset1); for($counter = 1;$counter<=$numberofrow;$counter++){ ?> <label for="hometeam2"></label> <form id="form1" name="form1" method="POST" action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>"> <label for="hometeam"></label> <input name="fixid" type="text" id="fixid" value="<?php echo $row_Recordset1['FixtureID']; ?>" /> <input name="hometeam" type="text" id="hometeam2" value="<?php echo $row_Recordset1['hometeamname']; ?>" /> <label for="homescore"></label> <input name="homescore" type="text" id="homescore" value="<?php echo $row_Recordset1['homescore']; ?>" /> <label for="awayscore"></label> <label for="fixid"></label> <input name="awayscore" type="text" id="awayscore" value="<?php echo $row_Recordset1['awayscore']; ?>" /> <label for="awayteam"></label> <input name="awayteam" type="text" id="awayteam" value="<?php echo $row_Recordset1['awayteamname']; ?>" /> <input type="submit" name="update" id="update" value="Submit" /> <input type="hidden" name="MM_update" value="form1" /> Search not functioning.

In trying to improve the user experience for my first WebApp I have decided to create two new tables - one a master file to contain a list of all stores, and the second a master file to contain a list of all products that are normally purchased - and I would like to use the values from these two tables as lookup values in dropdown listboxes, to which the user can also add new entries.
As it turns out, I'm stuck on the very first objective i.e. to lookup/pull-in the distinct values from the master tables.
The problem I'm having is that the query seems to return no rows at all...in spite of the fact that there a records in the table, and the exact same query (when run within the MySQL environment) returns all the rows correctly.
Is there something wrong with my code, or how can I debug to see whether or not the query is being executed?
Objective # 2, which is to allow new values to be entered into the dropdown listbox, and then inserted into the respective table is certainly waaay beyond my beginner skills, and I'll most certainly need to some help with that as well..so if I can get some code/directions in that regard it will be most appreciated.
Thank you.
<?php $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT store_name FROM store_master ORDER BY store_name ASC"; $statement = $conn->prepare($sql); $statement->execute(); $count = $statement->rowCount(); echo $count; // fetch ALL results pertaining to the query $result = $statement->fetchAll(); echo "<select name=\"store_name\">"; echo '<option value="">Please select...</option>'; foreach($result as $row) { echo "<option value='" . $row['store_name'] .

How do you write the PHP to take the first number returned and add it to the next number returned (NOTE: There may be more than two numbers returned, but for now, I'm always dealing with two) For example, say I do a query that returns the number 27 first and then the number 10 second. FYI, these numbers will be available in the variable $diff['result']. So the code after the query would look something like this, but obviously i'm struggling with the part in comments... Code: [Select] if (!$numbers) { die("Database query failed: " . mysql_error()); } else { while ($diff = mysql_fetch_array($numbers)) { //this would bring back 27 first, in the variable $diff['result'] and then on the 2nd loop through, it would bring back 10 in the $diff['result'] variable //ultimately, i just want the difference between the numbers (which in the case would be 17).

I have a query that returns row ID's that I want to put into an array to do some work. There is no real concept of a "value" - I just need to store a list of the database table rows that i want and that's it! Edited February 16 by SaranacLake is there a way to reset the array keys? to 0,1,2,3,... also for example that i have something like this: $array['dog']='dog'; $array['mouse']='mouse'; $array['cat']='cat'; and i want it like this: $array[0]='dog'; $array[1]='mouse'; $array[2]='cat'; is there a function for that already in php? I have an array of type Code: [Select] Array ( [2] => Array ( [name] => Shelby Baptist Medical Ctr [city] => Alabaster ) [1] => Array ( [name] => Andalusia Regional Hospital [city] => Andalusia ) [0] => Array ( [name] => Long Term Hospital of Anniston [city] => Anniston )) How can sort the keys of an array but there content remains the same so that they are like Code: [Select] Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => Shelby Baptist Medical Ctr [city] => Alabaster ) [1] => Array ( [name] => Andalusia Regional Hospital [city] => Andalusia ) [2] => Array ( [name] => Long Term Hospital of Anniston [city] => Anniston )) Can someone please point me if there is any func. for this hey guys im trying to result an array key and value if it has one...the code and results are below if anyone can help with this simple problem...thanks alot Code: [Select] <?php $columns = array('news_id' => 'id', 'news'); foreach ($columns as $column => $column_alias) { echo $column .

The title makes it sound more complicated than it is. I have a recurring function that searches for a specific value in a multi-dimensional array. When it finds it, it returns an array of the index. For example, if it found the value at $array[1][4][2][0], it would return an array like this: [0]=>1 [1]=>4 [2]=>2 [3]=>0 Here's the function. Code: [Select] <?php // Other Code /** * Find's the parent of an item * Unfortunately, it takes a bit more work than just using the loudspeaker at a grocery store * @param int $parent The parent to be searched for * @param array $array * @param array $cur_index */ private function findParent($parent, $array, $cur_index) { for($i = 0; $i < count($array); $i++) { // Search the array if($array[$i]['id'] == $parent) { // If the parent is found $cur_index[count($cur_index)] = $i; return array(true, $cur_index); } if(count($array[$i][1]) > 1) { // Call findParent again to search the child $cur_index[count($cur_index)] = $i; $found_in_child = $this->findParent($parent, $array[$i], $cur_index); if($found_in_child[0]) { return $found_in_child; } } } return array(false); // Return no matches } I need to be able to call that index using the keys from the key array (as we will call it).

Hey guys so I've been trying to figure something out for a day now but I really don't know where to start, basically I'm trying to create some kind of function that goes through my array and checks if the keys value is less than 5, if it is then I want to unset the key removing it from the array,
I programmed this underneath as this is basically what I want to achieve however there's a syntax issue as the array_key_excists function doesn't seem to allow the if statement, if anyone knows anything about it it would be very helpful!
if (array_key_exists(($key > 5),$data)) { unset($data[$key]); }any help is very much appreciated, Thanks very much in advance!
