PHP - Moved: Add To 'likes' Field In Database

I have text field in database, where I have let's say 5000 words.
I  want to split this text having 5000 words in pages, each one having 500 words.
How can I realise this ?
A practical example would be appreciate  !
Thank you in advance.

I am building a system where people are able to choose a food menu, they can modify each dish if needed and then say how many of each item they need for the order.

So when they pick the breakfast menu, it selects all starters, mains and desserts.  Should something need to be edited (sausages changed to vegitarian sausages) the user should be able to overtype what has been populated from the select statement)

When the form is submitted, the order needs to be linked to the current job which is in a field ssm_job.job_id but the changes to the menu items need to be stored somewhere for the current order only.  This obviously needs to be accessile later so further changes can be made if needed.  I am not sure of the best way to go about this as i am trying not to save every item in another database (just trying to be tidy)

Any advise on this would be greatly appreciated.

I have had help on this project in relation to an sql and the background can be found below, the help has been amazing but as this is a very different question i thought i would start a new thread.

 

Kind Regards

I need some help with updating the database table with the correct selection from that box.
I have a dropdown box. This is actually a list from the images in a curtain directory.
here the code I used:

<?php
$dhandle = opendir('../images/Vessels/');
$files = array();
if ($dhandle) {
   // loop through all of the files
   while (false !== ($fname = readdir($dhandle))) {
      if (($fname != '.') && ($fname != '..') &&
          ($fname != basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']))) {
          $files[] = (is_dir( "./$fname" )) ? "(Dir) {$fname}" : $fname; }
            }
   closedir($dhandle);
}


So when inserting a new record I can use the dropdownbox to populate the correct field.

Database:
Id, Vesselname, Image, more, andmore

There is a section where an authorized user can upload an image to the directory.
This image will then be available in dropdown when the need to add a new vessel (in this case)
The problem that I have is, when I later what to update the vessel, I want that same dropdownbox
to be showing the correct imagename as "selected".
How can I do that?

This is what I have been expirementing with sofar:

<?php require_once('../Connections/bgf_db.php'); ?>
<?php
$dhandle = opendir('../images/Vessels/');
$files = array();
$selectedFile = "mare.jpg";
if ($dhandle) {
   // loop through all of the files
   while (false !== ($fname = readdir($dhandle))) {
      if (($fname != '.') && ($fname != '..') &&
          ($fname != basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']))) {
          $files[] = (is_dir( "./$fname" )) ? "(Dir) {$fname}" : $fname; }
      }
   closedir($dhandle);
}
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
    $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  }
  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}
}
$MyFile_Recordset1 = "no-picture.jpg";
if (isset($selectedFile)) {
  $MyFile_Recordset1 = $selectedFile;
}
mysql_select_db($database_bgf_db, $bgf_db);
$query_Recordset1 = sprintf("SELECT vessels.Name, vessels.Image FROM vessels WHERE vessels.Image = %s", GetSQLValueString($MyFile_Recordset1, "text"));
$Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_Recordset1, $bgf_db) or die(mysql_error());
$row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1);
$totalRows_Recordset1 = mysql_num_rows($Recordset1);
$selectedFile = $row_Recordset1['Image'];
?>
<select name="NameHere">
<option value="<?php echo $selectedFile?>" 
<?php if (!(strcmp($selectedFile, $row_Recordset1['Image']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>><?php echo $selectedFile ?>
</option>
<?php
// Now loop through the files, echoing out a new select option for each one
foreach( $files as $fname )
{
   echo "<option value=\"$fname\">{$fname}</option>\n";
}
echo "</select>\n";
?>


 

This is kind of hard to explain, but I will try my best.

I have a script that is attempting to display information in a MySQL database by month fields that are chosen by the user. For instance, they can choose for the start date to start in January, and pick the end date which in this example will be April.

The script then puts the required field that match the specific dates into a column for each month. For the most part it outputs fine as: Jan: 15, Feb: 14, Mar: 9, Apr: 2.

However, sometimes there is nothing in the database for certain months. This causes the script to display wrong so instead I get: Jan 3, Feb: , Mar: , Apr: .

In the above example, the Jan: 3 might be wrong, because the field might have been for Mar instead. I need it to display like this when there is no fields in the database: Jan: 0, Feb: 0, Mar: 3, Apr: 0.

How would I go about doing this?

Here's the scenario:

I have an output (list of fields from a database in a table format). It is a list of items in my game, but I want to make the name be hyperlinked to the information from the database (name, attributes, price, etc.).

How would I create a hyperlink so that when I do click on the item's name, it will open up the item's information to make it editable?

(I have a form that creates the item already, but I want to make it have that information pre-populated for that item so if it needs edited, it could be at that point.)

Thanks!

Hopefully I explained that ok...

I have been trying to hack two parts of code together... I had code writen that will grab the text from a website and completely clean it of all junk except for full words... then echo it.  Now I am trying to use the same script to pull from a database instead of a URL but am lost... Here is my code... I would make another donation to the site if we can get this going... THANK YOU!

Howdy,

I'm trying to display text from a table in a database. It's a list of quotes, so I just need to pull out the quote and the author name. However, the quote and name are not fields in the same record; they are separate records. Example data:

Code: [Select]
quoteid    name        value
1            content You guys are great! Thanks for being awesome.
1            author John Jackson
2            content Gosh you're amazing! Always been so darn helpful!
2            author Peter Davis
So, I just need to rip out the data from 'content' and 'author', and then group them together based on the quoteid. This is my code thus far:

$testimonial_resource = mysql_query("SELECT name, value FROM quotes GROUP BY quoteid ORDER BY author ASC") or die(mysql_error());

while ($testimonial = mysql_fetch_assoc($testimonial_resource)) {

echo '<p>'.$testimonial['value']'.<br /><strong>'.$testimonial['value'].'</strong></p>';

}

Any help would be greatly appreciated for this novice.

Cheers.

i hav dis checkstatus.php page where the user enters a random number sms to him..but after tht he shud be able to see d reply given by admin ..d problem over here is d user only views half of the field called 'anything'
(my database is named "proj")
heres my code
jst cant understand why dis is happening...pls help

Hey guys,
I m not yet an experienced coder. SO faced alot of problems. Here, I'm trying to generate a UNIQUE RANDOM NUMBER set between two numbers. Repetative occurance must be avoided by all means as I want every number so generated bears a unique value. In other words, every values that made entry into the field of my database should be differant from each others.


<?php
$conN=mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
if(!$conN)
{
die('error'.mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("freebie_allusers",$conN);
$UIN=mt_rand(1,5);
$locateUIN="SELECT UIN FROM user_info WHERE UIN='".$UIN."'";
$fetchUIN=mysql_query($locateUIN);
$resultUIN=mysql_num_rows($fetchUIN);
if($resultUIN>0)
{



WHAT CODE IS REQUIRED HERE SO AS TO GENERATE UNIQUE RANDOM NUMBER?






}

else 
echo $UIN;
?>

Thanx in advance

Hi all.

The title pretty much says it all.  I really have no idea if this is even possible or where to start.  A recent dilemma caused me to have to change a field name with some spaces in it.  I have a database with ~65 tables, a majority of which were converted from Access.  So I'm curious as to how many others have bad field names.  Is there a way to use PHP to go through all the field names in a database and remove spaces?

I have a PHP Form where users have to enter and upload a file but when they click upload everything is working except that it is only sending first character of text field to Database!

Can any one help??

Thanks
