PHP - Working With Dns_get_record, This Is Really Killing Me

Ok, what I want to happen is, if if($_POST['select'] == 'choose'){ is submitted, the script to display an error and not proccess anything after with the die(); message displayed to the user, but it's not showing the message, and infact when if($_POST['select'] is submitted as another array (I'm sorry, is that the correct term?) it still kills the whole script.

I've check in my db an nothing is updating the tables so I guess die is working to an degree.

I've tried it without the die commands an it works as it should so I know the info does get sent without the die

Here is my code so far -


<?php
/**************************
database info
****************************/
$host = "***";
$user = "***";
$pass = "***";
$db = "***";
/****************************
define variables
****************************/
$name = $_POST['name'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) OR die ("Could not connect to the server."); 
mysql_select_db($db) OR die("Could not connect to the database."); // connect to server or die :(
?>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
if($_POST['select'] == 'choose'){ 
    die("please select a shout or request from the drop down");// if no drop down is selected, kill the script and explain why
}
 
 else if($_POST['select'] == 'shouts'){
  // begin shouts
$message = htmlspecialchars($message);
$message = nl2br($message);
$message = mysql_real_escape_string($message);
$name = htmlspecialchars($name);
$name = mysql_real_escape_string($name);
$class = "shout"; // assigns the css class to be used when the results are called
{
mysql_query("INSERT INTO shoutbox (name, message, class) VALUES ('$name', '$message', $class)");
}}
// begin request

?>
<link href="css/vip_sheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<div id="shout-container">
<div id="shouts">
<?php
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM shoutbox ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 0,10");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
?>
<div class="<?php echo $row['class'];  ?>">
<b><?php echo $row['name']; ?></b><br />
<?php echo $row['message']; ?></div>
<?php
}}
?>
</div>
</div>


thank you

I have some OOP code im working on and I have some interactions with the database. However, mysql_fetch_array fails to be working. Have I missed something?
Code: [Select]
class core
{
var $array_batsmen = '';
var $array_bowlers = '';


// Query to get batsmen
function get_batsmen()
{
return $this->array_batsmen = mysql_query('SELECT id, name, ability, strength FROM wtw_players WHERE team_id = 1 ORDER BY id ASC');


}

// Query to get bowlers
function get_bowlers()
{
$this->array_bowlers = mysql_query('SELECT id, name, ability, strength FROM wtw_players WHERE team_id = 2');
}  



// Generate array of batsmen to be used
function generateBatsmen()
{
while ($array = mysql_fetch_array($this->array_batsmen))
{

echo $array['name'];

}


}

}

The functions are called later normally, i've only included the necessary parts. Basically I have the var $array_batsmen which stores the mysql_query. This is then later used with a mysql_fetch_array to return names from the earlier query.

But nothing happens! It doesn't return anything (don't worry, I have a return later on). The loop just doesn't seem to work :/

Hello Everyone,
                        I am very very new to php, i recetly code some php script for my website, but now stuck with some horrible errors.

Hello there   After a few years of spending less and less time coding, I've got a lot of catching up to do. Back when I left I usually would run without classes. Now this is a big deal for me today.   I do understand the concept of classes and already did some working models, mostly from my learning process.   Now here is what is bothering me:

<?PHP

class database {
	// Variables
	public $test;
	
	// Constructor
	public function __construct()
	{
		$test = "4";
	}
	
	
	// Functions
	//
	public function test()
	{
		var_dump($this->test);
	}
	
}

$test = new database;

$test->test();

?>

Wether I run this script on itself, nor through another file, this does work. What i get is:   NULL   The constructor does run, I did an echo inside it. Also it does not matter if the variable is public, private or protected - it will be always NULL.   Error_reporting is on E_ALL, does not show any errors.   What have I overlooked?

i dont understand what is wrong plz help me. here is code

http://paste.ee/p/OhiWv   The above is a link to a readable version of my code.  The XMLHTTPREQUEST worked, and the array was pulled down.  Was able to print out the undecoded/unparsed array.  However, immediately afterwards, all code stops working.

I need bit of help, so I am looking into a plugin created for newsletter where default is it shows ad but it has option to remove ads by checking the check box. Default is to send ads in newsletter but if you don't want to send ads through newsletter then check the box. The problem is, it seems like checkbox selected is not being picked up. Some help would be appreciated.

The custom field in wp:

 

'label' => 'Hide newsletter ads',
           'name' => 'hide_ads', 
          'type'  => 'checkbox',
                'instructions'      => 'Checking the checkbox will remove ads',
                'required'          => 0,
                'conditional_logic' => 0,
                'wrapper'           => array(
                    'width' => '',
                    'class' => '',
                    'id'    => '',
                ),
                'choices' => array(
                    'Hide newsletter ads' => 'Hide newsletter ads',
                ),
                'allow_custom' => 0,
                'default_value' => array(
                ),
                'layout' => 'block',
                'toggle' => 0,
                'return_format' => 'value',
                'save_custom' => 0,
               ),

When I echo the POST, it echoes the correct value.
The MySQL portion seems to just ignore it all together.
I've tried changing the dropdown option to just a text field, same thing occurred.
I have text fields right above this particular one that update just fine with the SAME exactly scripting.
if POST, update query, done. Works.

This one for some reason will not.

MySQL portion:
if ($_POST['bUpdate']){
mysql_query("UPDATE `Patients` SET `b` = '$_POST[bUpdate]' WHERE `id` = '".$_GET['id']."'");
}
echo $_POST['bUpdate'];

Form Portion:
Code: [Select]
    <tr onmouseover="color(this, '#baecff');" onmouseout="uncolor(this);">
    <td width="310" colspan="2" align="center"><span class="fontoptions">Postcard Status </span><br />
<?
if ($data['b'] == 1){
echo '<select name="bUpdate"><option value="1" selected>Yes</option><option value="0">No</option></select>';
} else {
echo '<select name="bUpdate"><option value="1">Yes</option><option value="0" selected>No</option></select>';
}

?>
</td>
    </tr>

I'm trying to turn this while loop into a for loop and am unable to get my result set to display properly in the for loop.  The while works fine I just want to be able to have more control over which information is shown in my table as I loop and was wanting to use a for loop that way I can take advantage of the counter variable while i"m displaying my information.  Any help would be appreciated. 

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($data_result_set)) {
            echo "<td>".$row["product_id"]."</td>";
            echo "<td>".$row["city"]."</td>";
            echo "<td>".$row["quantity"]."</td>";
            }


*** I'm wanting it to look like something like this but can't figure out how to properly work in which row to display with the $i variable.

$count=mysql_num_rows($data_result_set);

for($i = 0; $i <= $count; $i++){
echo "<td>".mysql_fetch_assoc[$i]["product_id"]."</td>";
            echo "<td>".mysql_fetch_assoc[$i]["city"]."</td>";
            echo "<td>".mysql_fetch_assoc[$i]["quantity"]."</td>";

}

I know the syntax for the for loop is totally off with the method mysql_fetch_assoc just dropped in there like a jerk but I'm just kinda pseudoing it out.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have the following file structure

/.htaccess
/index.php
/displaypage.php

All files are on root.

I have following written in .htaccess file

Options FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9-]+)$ displaypage.php?page=$1 [NC,L]

I have following written in displaypage.php

echo $_GET["page"];

Now when I run http://localhost/ then it shows index.php page which is correct. If I run http://localhost/something then it shows a blank page. Previously it used to display that "page" variable on screen. mod_rewrite is enabled and I am using Windows with XAMPP.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

I just did a huge import from an app I have been working on. No issues except for this.

I uploaded & imported all files & databases from my wampserver (localhost, local server) to my main online server.

Before I continue with the problem, I have to give you info on how the files work.

I am using a "controller" to view the files. Meaning, from index.php, I call all the files. For example, instead of mysite.com/register.php, its mysite.com/index.php?page=register.

The index defines the doctype & html tags etc.

The other files that are called through index.php are just pure php code, it does not contain the head & body tags etc.

So, the issue is , when the surfer submits a form, i need to set a cookie. this cookie is VERY important.
I cannot get it to work. I am getting the header warnings after submit

Of course, this is to be expected. But I tried it on my local server, & it worked. I am not very familiar with cookies, this is a side of PHP i never really even touched. I know almost everything but that.  So the php code is before the html code on the page, so I figured it was worth a shot.
Im guessing the problem here is, since the code being outputted as index.php code + the form page code. So the cookie is being set after the html tags.

How can I fix this? I need it to work thru the controller. I cannot just make it a single file, all files on the site needs to be thru this controller, otherwise it will mess everything up.

Ino I could just add the code from index.php plus the form page code & just run the php code before all of the html tags, but like I said it has to be called thru index.php.

I appreciate your replies, & I hope you guys dont think im an idiot & can understand my question, im terrible with words!

I want to use css and PHP together

Let say I have simple PHP page:
Code: [Select]
<html> <head>
<title>Coupon Sample </title> </head>
<body>

<div id="test">
<?php
echo ("Test"); 
?>
</div>
</body></html>
Now if I want to add css to this I have two options
1. add css code in head tag
2. add external css file with <link> tag

My simple css is
Code: [Select]
#test
{
color:orange;
}
if I am using first option like
Code: [Select]
<html> <head>
<title>Coupon Sample </title>

#test
{
color:orange;
}
</head>
Its working fine, for second option
Code: [Select]
<title>Coupon Sample </title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="type/css" href="simple.css"/>
</head>
where simple.css contain css code
but its not working.. it shows text in black color instead of orange

Does anyone has idea about it. or is their other way to add css in this situation.

Thanks in advance

Hi There,

I am trying to create a webpage that displays tasks that need to be completed on specific days. For example, every tuesday, every Friday etc etc. I am finding problems though then I try to display tasks that need to be done on, for example, the first working day of the month.

Is there any way that PHP can work out the first working day of the month? Our working days are Monday to Friday.

I have a database backend to this that has the following columns if that helps:

TASK_NAME
TASK_SUMMARY
TASK_WEEKDAY
TASK_DAY_IN_MONTH
TASK_MONTH

Happy to change the DB if I need to as it is empty at the moment.

Thanks in advance

None of those variables are displaying data.
