Thank you in advance

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.

		<script>  
			var xhr;
			 if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari, ...
				xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
			} else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE 8 and older
				xhr = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
			} 
				xhr.open("POST", "PHPLibrary/selectMemberResults.php", true); 
				xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");                  
				xhr.send();
				xhr.onreadystatechange = display_data;
				var $phparray
				function display_data() {
				 if (xhr.readyState == 4) {
				  if (xhr.status == 200) {
				    //alert(xhr.responseText);	   
					$phparray = xhr.responseText;
					document.getElementById("suggestion").innerHTML = $phparray;
					//
					//
					//......................................................?
					// The above line of code is the last thing to print or 
					// to do anything that returns to the browser....
					//.......................................................?
					// All lines below do nothing............................?

					//
				  } else {
					//alert('There was a problem with the request.');
				  }
				 }
				}   
				document.write("Length of phparray Array :" + $phparray.length + "<");  
				var output = JSON.parse($phparray, function (key,val) {
					if ( typeof val === 'string' ) {
						// regular expression to remove extra white space
						if ( val.indexOf('\n') !== -1 ) {
							var re = /\s\s+/g;
							return val.replace(re, ' ');
						} else {
							return val;
						}
					}
					return val;
				} ); 
				document.write("Length of Array :" + $output.length + "<");

					{

Hello I have one problem with fwrite() I have one script to get width and height from javascript and echo it with PHP.
echo "Screen width is: ". $_GET['width'] ."<br />\n";
echo "Screen height is: ". $_GET['height'] ."<br />\n";
It works but i want to store the result in a file
fwrite($info,"Height: $_GET['height'] <br />");
But then I get error Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING
////////////////////////
it would be even better if I don't have to print the values but directly store them in $iinfo
sorry if something similar was soved but those examples were different or i was unable to transform it to solve my problem

Hello,

I can't get a json call to work in my php... Hope some one can see where I am going wrong and push me in the right direction.

I have 3 values I am trying to send from the php file to the html.

The output looks as if it should work, but is does not... So here is the php variable that does give me a result, but I have no idea why it does not show in the div.

<?php  
$choice = (isset($_POST['choice'])) ? date("Y-m-d",strtotime($_POST['choice'])) : date("Y-m-d"); 
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","xxxxxx");  
if (!$con)  {  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());  }  
mysql_select_db("inverters", $con);  
$sql = "SELECT sum(power/1000) AS choice FROM feed WHERE date = '".$choice."' group by date"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or die('sql='.$sql."\n".mysql_error()); 
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
$dayPowerP = array( $row['choice']);
?>
<?php 
$choice = (isset($_POST['choice'])) ? date("m",strtotime($_POST['choice'])) : date("m"); $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","xxxxxx");  
if (!$con)  {  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());  }  
mysql_select_db("inverters", $con);  
$sql = "SELECT sum(power/1000) AS choice FROM feed WHERE month(date) = '".$choice."'";
$res = mysql_query($sql) or die('sql='.$sql."\n".mysql_error()); 
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
$monthPowerP = array($row['choice']);
?>
<?php 
$choice = (isset($_POST['choice'])) ? date("Y",strtotime($_POST['choice'])) : date("Y"); $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","xxxxxx");  
if (!$con)  {  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());  }  
mysql_select_db("inverters", $con);  
$sql = "SELECT sum(power/1000) AS choice FROM feed WHERE year(date) = '".$choice."'";
$res = mysql_query($sql) or die('sql='.$sql."\n".mysql_error()); 
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
$yearPowerP = array( $row['choice']);
?>
<?php
$outarr['dayPowerP'] = $dayPowerP;
$outarr['monthPowerP'] = $monthPowerP;
$outarr['yearPowerP'] = $yearPowerP;
echo json_encode($outarr);
?> 


Now there are no errors, and this is what the output is so I would assume it should work as the right values are there and the right id.....

Code: [Select]
{"dayPowerP":["12.7240"],"monthPowerP":["145.0460"],"yearPowerP":["941.0370"]}
I do not understand. Now the Jquery should be working as well... the ajax should be sending the post with json to carry the key data to make a clear result from the php and json should be doing it's job in the php file and the Jquery is do basic to have any issues, so that leaves my focus on the PHP at this time, but I do not see a proplem.

Code: [Select]
$(document).ready(function () {   
$('#datepicker').datepicker({maxDate: 0, dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd', onSelect: function(dateText) {
            var myDate = $(this).datepicker('getDate');
            $('#apDiv1').html($.datepicker.formatDate('DD, d', myDate));
            $('#apDiv5').html($.datepicker.formatDate('MM', myDate));
            $('#apDiv7').html($.datepicker.formatDate('yy', myDate));
            $.ajax({ 
            type: "POST",   
            url: "clickdates.php",                 
            data: {choice: dateText},
            dataType: "json", 
            success: function(json_data) { 
            $('#apDiv2').html(json_data['dayPowerP']);
            $('#apDiv6').html(json_data['monthPowerP']);     
            $('#apDiv8').html(json_data['yearPowerP']);         
           }
        })           
    }});
});
The one thing that is odd. When I use 3 different php files, it works perfect, but that is not using json. Now that I am using json to return 1 call from the php, I am lost at this point, does anyone see what I can't...

Thanks,

Alan

Hey guys I am Posting data over to a server file in Json and I need to know how I can add to the XML file. here is both codes. 

function validate() {
	$xml = simplexml_load_file("stock.xml");
	$sxe = new SimpleXMLElement($xml->asXML());
	
	for($i = 1; $i < 801; $i++)
	{
		$newItem->addChild("name" , "null");
	}
	
	$sxe->asXML("stock.xml");
	echo $sxe->asXML();
	
    $response = $_POST;

    $response["items"] = "Test output";
    $response["description"] = "test 42 ";
    
    $response["json"] = json_encode($response);
    echo json_encode($response);
}

The red text is what I want this json script to do. Do I have to return back to my form to add to the XML file? Can json add to a xml file on its own? Thanks for your time! have a good day!  

Okay so i know this is going to sound really stupid i just got out of school and now im in the real world here is the problem I dont know very much about how to work with JSON via PHP all i am trying to do is have the Script read data into an array from some text boxes then from the array into a JSON file the reading and the listing is all fine and dandy but only if i want the entire file how do i read data from a JSON file and only have it display data according to what i want so for example if i wanted to return data that matched an ID like you would do in MySQL like this ("SELECT * FROM catagories WHERE ID = '$id'") so how do i do that without a Database using a JSON File as a source for the data

My script is not acting like it should. I believe its because of the recent change in the api, (the new error array)?

Before there was only one....

<?php

$gamertag = 'l RaH l';

$url = "http://api.xboxleaders.com/user_api.php?gamertag=".str_replace(' ', '%20', $gamertag);

$output = file_get_contents($url);

// try to convert the response into a PHP object
$obj = json_decode($output);

if(!is_object($obj)) 
die("Error parsing JSON response\n");

//define variables
$avatar = ($obj->user->avatar);
$gold = ($obj->user->gold);

print $avatar;
print $gold;

?>

if you print_r $object;

it displays this

{"error":{"code":200,"desc":"OK"}},{"user":{"gold":1,"gamertag":"l RaH l","avatar":"http:\/\/avatar.xboxlive.com\/avatar\/l%20RaH%20l\/avatarpic-l.png","gamerscore":12508,"reputation":20},"recent_games":[{"recent_game":{"title":"Halo: Reach","link":"http:\/\/gamercard.xbox.com\/en-US\/GameCenter\/Achievements?titleId=1297287259&compareTo=l%20RaH%20l","image":"http:\/\/tiles.xbox.com\/tiles\/ih\/ew\/0Wdsb2JhbA9ECgR8GgMfVlohL2ljb24vMC84MDAwIAAAAAAAAP6fF5U=.jpg"}},{"recent_game":{"title":"Halo 3","link":"http:\/\/gamercard.xbox.com\/en-US\/GameCenter\/Achievements?titleId=1297287142&compareTo=l%20RaH%20l","image":"http:\/\/tiles.xbox.com\/tiles\/Us\/3e\/1Wdsb2JhbA9ECgR8GgMfWSpVL2ljb24vMC84MDAwIAAAAAAAAPrxzU0=.jpg"}},{"recent_game":{"title":"AC Brotherhood","link":"http:\/\/gamercard.xbox.com\/en-US\/GameCenter\/Achievements?titleId=1431504989&compareTo=l%20RaH%20l","image":"http:\/\/tiles.xbox.com\/tiles\/oK\/tp\/1Wdsb2JhbA9ECgUNGgMfVlonL2ljb24vMC84MDAwIAAAAAAAAPpGq78=.jpg"}},{"recent_game":{"title":"Fighters Uncaged","link":"http:\/\/gamercard.xbox.com\/en-US\/GameCenter\/Achievements?titleId=1431504974&compareTo=l%20RaH%20l","image":"http:\/\/tiles.xbox.com\/tiles\/v+\/Au\/0Wdsb2JhbA9ECgUNGgMfVlsmL2ljb24vMC84MDAwIAAAAAAAAP4B4KA=.jpg"}},{"recent_game":{"title":"Assassin's Creed","link":"http:\/\/gamercard.xbox.com\/en-US\/GameCenter\/Achievements?titleId=1431504852&compareTo=l%20RaH%20l","image":"http:\/\/tiles.xbox.com\/tiles\/L3\/mu\/0Wdsb2JhbA9ECgUNGgMfWStXL2ljb24vMC84MDAwIAAAAAAAAP6BeTA=.jpg"}}]}

A number of marketers are wondering how they will incorporate the new features in an attempt to progress and move forward with their online social media presence.<\/p>\r\n<p>Taking all the key changes in to consideration we have managed to create a guide on how to smoothly move with the times and embrace the new Facebook layout.<\/p>\r\n<p>Please read on below for helpful tips and tricks on how to excel with 'Timeline for Brands'<\/p>\r\n<h2>New Features Announced at the Facebook Marketing Conference:<\/h2>\r\n<p><strong>View and Apps:<\/strong> What was once known as Application pages has changed to 'Tabs'. These can now have customizable images linked with them and the order of them can be changed too. Below you can see from the screenshot what a customized Facebook Timeline looks like.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Pinning Content:<\/strong> With this new feature you can 'pin' a post to the very top of your Facebook Timeline. This is Very effective when working on a new campaign and is a great way to entice increased traffic to your tab or application page.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Featured 'Starred' Content:<\/strong> This feature allows you to select key content or imagery and extend it so it fits across your entire page. Therefore giving you featured content on your Facebook Timeline and making it more visible.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Cover Photos:<\/strong> Cover Photos are another great new feature that allow you to announce your latest campaign, welcome your following community or just simply show visitors to your timeline what you can do. There are some slight flaws with this feature though and will be addressed below.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Page Dimensions:<\/strong> Dimensions of application pages has now changed with the release of Facebook Timeline. If you happen to be an SML user then you have all the tools necessary to update your page on your own. If your using Involvers App Suite then those applications will be updated soon.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Removal of Default Landing Pages:<\/strong> The commonly used Facebook landing pages have been removed and replaced with various options to allow brands to drive content to application pages. These options allow you to use your cover photo and pinned content to attract users to your personal application pages. Despite the changes it is however still possible to link directly to application pages from ads, posts and outside of Facebook.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Getting Started with Timeline For Brand:<\/h2>\r\n<p>Firstly when accessing and logging in to your New Facebook Brand Page, you will see this admin message displayed below:<\/p>\r\n<p>When will my Page change to the latest design?<\/p>\r\n<p>To see a preview of what your new pages will look like, simply click on the green button at the top of your current pages.

Facebook itself recommends using a photo of a popular menu item, album artwork or an image of your product being used by someone. You need to experiment with a number of different images that your audience responds positively to. Few key elements of Cover Images:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Each Cover image must be at least 399 pixels wide and must not contain the following:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Prices \/ Purchase information and displaying offers such as \"60% off this month\" are not permitted. Also 'Download this from our website' is not allowed.<\/li>\r\n<li>No email addresses, web addresses and any other contact information.<\/li>\r\n<li>References to clicking on or the use of Facebook interface elements such as Like or Share or any other Facebook Features.<\/li>\r\n<li>\"Tell your friends\" or \"Get it now\" or any other calls to action are not allowed in the latest version of Facebook Timeline.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>All Timeline cover imagery is public and therefore means anyone visiting your Page will be able to see exactly which image you have chosen. The photos you display must not be deceptive, false or misleading any way that infringes on third party intellectual property. You must also not encourage of incentivize other fellow users, friends or business associates to display the same cover image as yours on personal Timelines.<\/p>\r\n<p>To sum up we are extremely excited about the latest Facebook feature release this week. They constantly deliver new services that are amazing and incredibly innovative to the market place.<\/p>\r\n<p>Here at Northplanet we are commited to provide you with the latest information on the hottest online topics around, to keep you ahead in the game.
