PHP - Php Based Business Intelligence/reporting Tool
Hi,
Can anyone recommend some Business Intelligence tools that can be integrated into a PHP (wordpress/joomla) based website? I've had a good look around the net but they all seem to be written in Java/J2EE and appear to be software based - not sure if im after the possible or impossible here...
Thanks
Similar TutorialsI have a javascript code that displays a monster hitting my character via client side only. It runs every 2 seconds via a setTimeout function.
My problem is... A user could just disable javascript all together, or craft their own code to disable the monster attack function.
I want to detect serverside if anything is being altered. If that makes sense.
This is EXTREMELY hard for me to explain, I have no idea but my game is essentially turn based at this point. THE MONSTER ONLY DOES DMG if a player HITS IT. That way, I can safely, and change the values serverside with MYSQL.
What I want is the monster to attack the player every 2 seconds or so (Which I have javascript code for already), but a user could just manipulate that code and then attack the mob and receive only that damage. I want it to be more of an action attack game, where the monster's attack automatically, but securely... If that makes sense, any idea?
Would I have to implement some type of timing mechanism or something serverside? Or once the player spawned that mob..? Not sure. (You only have XX Seconds to kill!), but that doesn't really fix the problem..
TLDR: Autoattack mob system serverside.

I've finally took a leap towards the brighter side of coding.. and Ive started to convert my code from php to opp pdo ect..
However the errors Ive been through my cms's and well anything to do with inserting into a database is rather confusing..
ERRORS such as invalid parameter number,.
What does this mean?
Here's the code that im getting the error from:
<?php //if form has been submitted process it if(isset($_POST['submit'])){ $_POST = array_map( 'stripslashes', $_POST ); //collect form data extract($_POST); //very basic validation if($title ==''){ $error[] = 'Please enter the title.'; } if($short_desc ==''){ $error[] = 'Please enter a short description.'; } if($full_desc ==''){ $error[] = 'Please enter a full description.'; } if(!isset($error)){ try { //insert into database $stmt = $handler->prepare('INSERT INTO calendar_event (title,short_desc,full_desc,date) VALUES (:title, :short_desc, :full_desc, :date)') ; $stmt->execute(array( ':title' => $title, ':short_desc' => $short_desc, ':ful_desc' => $full_desc, ':date' => date('Y-m-d') )); //redirect to index page header('Location: index.php?action=added'); exit; } catch(PDOException $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); } } } //check for any errors if(isset($error)){ foreach($error as $error){ echo '<p class="error">'.$error.'</p>'; } } ?> <form action='' method='post'> <table class="admin_table_defaults"> <tr> <th width="10px">Title</th> <th width="200px">Date</th> <th width="200px"> </th> <th></th> </tr> <tr> <td><input type='text' name='title' value='<?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['title'];}?>'></td> <td><input type='date' name='date' value='<?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['date'];}?>'></td> <td><td> </tr> </table> <table class="admin_table_defaults"> <tr> <th style="text-align:left;"> Short Description <span class="small_text"> : NB - Please avoid using images, align properties, stick to text format. <br/><b style="background:#fff;font-size:14px;">Note : There's a character max of 100 characters for this field</b></span></th> </tr> <tr> <td><textarea name='short_desc' cols='60' rows='10' ><?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['short_desc'];}?></textarea></td> </tr> <tr> </table> <table class="admin_table_defaults"> <tr> <th style="text-align:left;"> Full Description: <span class="small_text"></th> </tr> <tr> <td><textarea name='full_desc' cols='60' rows='10'><?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['full_desc'];}?></textarea></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input class="admin_submit_btn"type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit'></td> </tr> <tr> </table> </tr> </table> </form>Any help will be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance.. Hello everyone, I have a messaging site where I have an email generated every night to report new activity on my site. The way it is currently set up, I have each message reply attached to the previous message, such as quoting the original text in an email message. Each string of messages in my database has one common field ("string"), but each new reply has a different message ID field in the database ("messid"). When each new message and reply is created the "reported" field in my database has a default value of n, meaning that it has not been reported yet. At the end of the day, when the email is generated, the reported field is then updated to y, meaning that it HAS been reported. The problem that I'm having now, is that I'm getting several of the same messages in every report. I am using the following code to select each unreported message from the database to generate my report: Code: [Select] <?php $result = mysql_query("SELECT `to`,`studentname`,`staffname`,`subject`,`message`,`date` FROM caresa6_$acct.allmsgs WHERE reported = 'n' ORDER BY `messid` ASC") or die (mysql_error()); ?> Basically, I need to know how to select only the most recent unreported message within each string of messages. For example, now if there is a new message: "Hello there." Then a reply from the recipient: "Hi! How are you?" Then another reply from the original sender: "I am fine." My report will look like this: ___________ New Message: "Hello there." ------------------ Reply: "Hi! How are you?" ------------------ Reply: "I am fine." ------------------ ___________ New Message: "Hello there." ------------------ Reply: "Hi! How are you?" ------------------ ___________ New Message: "Hello there." ------------------ So I am getting carbon copies of every new message every time someone replies. I want to only select the most recent message so that my report only reads: ___________ New Message: "Hello there." ------------------ Reply: "Hi! How are you?" ------------------ Reply: "I am fine." ------------------ Thanks in advance. I want to log my errors to a log file but it isn't working. I get the error displayed on the screen but the file is not written to. The file permissions are set to 777 to make things easy. Error reporting is on for development only. Any advice on why I cannot write to the file? It's an apache server. Is there a trick to getting the file path correct relative to my front controller? Also, if I use error_log to send the error to my email address, it works. ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL | E_STRICT); ini_set('display_errors', true); error_log("You messed up!", 3, '/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/framework/errors.txt'); When I use ini_get to check my error_reporting level, I get a weird value ( 4983 ) that I can't find anywhere by googling. Also not on the list of possible levels here ( http://itech.hubpages.com/hub/php-error_reporting ) .. does anyone know how to determine what exactly this level is? Thanks! I am looking at a website which will have a number of items on it advertised,such as:
businesses
jobs
property
etc
what I want to know is when designing the database would you have these in one table or a table for each?
Edited by brown2005, 14 October 2014 - 08:43 AM. Hello, everyone. I'm still kind of new at this, so please bear with me. I've customized a website (hosted by Yahoo Small Business) which is now fully functional aside from the "Contact Us" page. I have a PHP file named "send_email.php" uploaded to my root directory which has the following code: <?php $contact_name = $_POST['name']; $contact_email = $_POST['email']; $contact_subject = $_POST['subject']; $contact_message = $_POST['message']; if( $contact_name == true ) { $sender = $contact_email; $receiver = "my@email.com"; $client_ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $email_body = "Name: $contact_name \nEmail: $sender \n\nSubject: $contact_subject \n\nMessage: \n\n$contact_message \n\nIP: $client_ip \n\nFlash Contact Form provided by http://www.flashmo.com"; $extra = "From: $sender\r\n" . "Reply-To: $sender \r\n" . "X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion(); if( mail( $receiver, "Flash Contact Form - $contact_subject", $email_body, $extra ) ) { echo "success=yes"; } else { echo "success=no"; } } ?> I went ahead and changed "my@email.com" to my actual email address. The problem I'm having, though, is that the form fails every time...except if I enter my own email address in the "Email" field which should be filled in by the customer. I can't figure this out. It's probably something simple that I'm doing wrong, or perhaps it has something to do with Yahoo Web Hosting. I'm also thinking I have to fill something in the "Client IP" section of the code...but I'm not sure what should go there. I'd really appreciate your time and responses. Thanks so much. im getting this error when i run a script mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource what do i have to do to echo out the actual error and what line its on like this Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/www/ikhelper.freehostia.com/globinc/loginfunc.php on line 87 iv tried inserting error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE); and error_reporting(-1); but doesnt output any error I have been working on this awhile (the perfect PHP error handling for my coding style). I have tried to set it up as: Code: [Select] <?php error_reporting(E_ALL & E_STRICT & ~(E_NOTICE)); ?> I want this to show me E_ALL errors, E_STRICT errors, and NOT show me E_NOTICE. Is this the right way to set that up, or am I doing something wrong. I haven't used E_STRICT before but I am anxious to see what kind of errors that have it showing since I haven't messed with it before. Thanks again. Hi Guys Completely Stuck by this one. Using the code below, when I go to the page I am getting a completely blank page (even though I have Error Reporting on. Can anybody tell me where I have gone wrong?

I'd like for the applicants to build a small full stack example application before I decided. Can anyone help me with cool -- samll -- example projects that might be appropriate for interviews? All the examples online are NOT full stack examples, and very basic -- like writing a file, etc. I need a small full stack application example that's not too big to scare off but not so small it won't matter.

Example: http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr267/brannenclass/ex.png So I am trying to make my life easier at work. I have this idea that I can automate the sales quote via a simple website. I have the entire product list in MySQL and I can query for the individual catagories etc etc and get them to display. The display shows the SKU, Description, Price, and a third field to select quantity. The issue is that once they select a quantity of a paticular line item I need that line item (sku, description, and price fields) to be carried over to the final quote page where the math is done. Not sure how to key the paticular line item fields off the quantity field. Any ideas greatly appreciated...
