PHP - Whats The Best Way Of Managing Website Contact Information

I have a table for collecting airline satisfaction survey results(see attached image).  I run a query to select the staff field there are 25 rows in this column I run a switch case block to filter out a result set that includes the responses 'poor', 'fair', 'good', and 'excellent' the result set should contain 20 elements

Code: [Select]
function score_staff() {
$staff_count = 0;
$result_set_cnt = 0;

$query = "SELECT staff FROM flight_survey";
$result = mysql_query($query);
while ($get_info = mysql_fetch_row($result)){
foreach ($get_info as $field){
switch($field) {
case "poor":
$staff_count++;
$result_set_cnt++;
$exit;

case "fair":
$staff_count+=2;
$result_set_cnt++;
$exit;

case "good":
$staff_count+=3;
$result_set_cnt++;
$exit;

case "excellent":
$staff_count+=4;
$result_set_cnt++;
$exit;

drfault:
// do nothing
}
}
}
echo $staff_count."<br>";
echo $result_set_cnt."<br>";
}

For each match I add 1 to the result set so with 20 matches  $result_set_cnt should be 20 and not 53 as shown at the bottom of the attached image.  The array $get_info bewilders me and I can't seem to access it's elements without putting it in a while loop.  Anyway I'm pretty new to php and have a lot to learn.  If anyone can explain how I could change the code so that the result set would contain 20 I think I'll be alright.  thanks

So im using textwrangler and usually when you click on the '{' or '}' it will highlight everything inbetween them, well on the top one on line 7 it does not, and i tried messing around with it to try to get it to work cause i keep getting an error on line 8 that says "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /home/truckste/public_html/create_topic_parse.php on line 8"

Code: [Select]
<?php
if($username){
header("Location: index.php");
exit();
}

if(isset($_POST['topic_submit'])){
if (($_POST['topic_title'] == "" && ($_POST['topic_content'] == "")){
echo "You Did Not Fill In Both Fields. Please Return To The Previous Page.";
exit();
}
else{
requre('scripts/connect.php');
$cid = $_POST['cid'];
$title = $_POST['topic_title'];
$content= $_POST['topic_content'];
$creator = $_POST['uid'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO topics (category_id, topic_title, topic_creator, topic_date, topic_reply_date) VALUES ('".$cid."', '".$title."', '".$creator."', now(), now())";
$res = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
$new_topic_id = mysql_insert_id();
$sql2 = "INSERT INTO posts (category_id, topics_id, post_creator, post_content, post_date) VALUES ('".$cid."', '".$new_topic_id."', '".$creator."', '".$content."', now())";
$res2 = mysql_query($sql2) or die(mysql_error());
$sql3 = "UPDATE categories SET last_post_date=now(), last_user_posted'".$creator."', WHERE id='".$cid."' LIMIT 1";
if (($res) && (res2) && (res3)){
header("Location: view_topic.php?cid".$cid."$tid=".$new_topic_id)
}
else{
echo "There Was A Problem Creating Your Topic. Please Try Again.";

Hi Friends, I wanted to know what is new in PHP version 5.6.0. How is it different from its previous versions? How will benefit the security of PHP websites? Thanks in advance.

Hi again,

Here is the code     $string .= (substr($string,-1) == '-') ? '' : '-';

I know what this code does but to increase my knowledge could some one tell me what is the
question mark symbol for ( ? ) and what is the colon doing. As I have seen the ?  in a lot of scripts but have no clue what it does and what its used for cheers!

Ive created a process which automatically creates a form for all of the "courses" that are listed in a database. This table shows the name, the course code, the current program the course is under and an option to delete the course. I have created a drop down menu for the user to select any of the current programs to switch the course into. My problem is I have X amount of select fields and radio buttons and I dont know how to tell which one has been changed below is my code, appreciate the help!:



        case "ep":
        
        if (isset ($_GET['id'])){
            $id = $_GET['id'];
                    echo "Below lists all of the current courses under this program. Once you have made all of the changes click the submit button at the bottom of the page. <br><br><br>";
                    $query = "SELECT * FROM courses WHERE cid = $id";
                    $result = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error());
                    echo "<form action=\"course_process.php\" method=\"post\">";
                    echo "<table><tr><td><strong>Course Name</strong></td><td><strong>Course Code</strong></td><td><strong>Change Course Program</strong></td><td><strong>Delete</strong></td></tr>";
                    $i = 0;
                    
                    while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
                        $r = $row['id'];
                        $query2 = "SELECT * from catagories";
                        $result2 = mysql_query($query2) or die (mysql_error());
                        echo "<tr><td> ". $row['name']. " </td><td> ".$row['code']." </td><td><select name=\"".$row['id']."\">";
                        
                        while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result2)){
                        
                        echo "<option value=".$row2['id'].">".$row2['name']. "</option>";
                            }
                            
                             echo "</select></td><td><input name=\"".$row['id']."\" type=\"radio\" value=\"Click to delete\" /></td></tr>";
                    }
                    echo "<tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td><input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Commit Changes\" /> </td></tr></table></form>";

Good evening my PHP experts!!!

OK so heres the problem...I have been at this for about 2 DAYS now and for the life of me I just don't understand what I could possibly be doing wrong.

I have 3 of 4 variables outputting correctly but without my id being pulled from the URL NOTHING will get written to my database. I have ran some tests and I came to learn that my $_POST['id']; function is not working properly for some strange reason. As always, any help would be greatly appreciated. Please see below PHP code. I also have posted the HTML code for your reference purposes...thanks in advance. Please helpppp!!!!

Code: [Select]
<?php

session_start();

$id = '';

if (isset($_POST['password'])) {

include_once "scripts/connect_to_mysql.php";

$id = $_POST['id'];
$id  = mysql_real_escape_string($id );
$id = eregi_replace("`", "", $id);


    $cust_password = $_POST['password'];
    $hashedPass = md5($cust_password); 

$sql = mysql_query("UPDATE customers SET password='$hashedPass' WHERE id='$id'");

$update_success = 'You have successfully updated your Password. Please click <a href="customer_login.php">HERE</a> to log into your account.';

//Output to test whether or not my variables have anything in them.
//$update_success, $hashedPass, $cust_password all Output just fine. $id displays nothing at all.
echo $update_success;
echo $hashedPass;
echo $cust_password;
echo $id;

exit();

}

What its doing: Mod-Justin Compared to Mod-Justin

Code: [Select]
$correct_numbers = 0;
$correct = 0;
$numbers_chosen = @explode("|",$ticket['numbers_chosed']);
$your_numbers = array();
$array1 = array_count_values($numbers_chosen);
$array2 = array_count_values($winning_numbers);
foreach($array1 as $number1 => $count1)
{
foreach($array2 as $number2 => $count2)
{
if($number2 == $number1 and $count2==$count1)
$correct_numbers += $count2;
}
}
$use = 0;
$numbers = @implode("|",$winning_numbers);
echo $correct_numbers;
echo "<br>";
echo $lottery['balls'];
I have no idea wthell this does
Code: [Select]
$correct_numbers += $count2;
What's that += suppose to mean?

I know the $correct_numbers is supposed to be a matching array count from the for eachs right?


$ticket['numbers_chosed']

hi all me again

i have this bit of code


mysql_connect($db_hostname,$db_username,$db_password);
@mysql_select_db($db_database) or die( "Unable to select database");

$whereClauses = array();
if(isset($_GET['bi'])) { $whereClauses[] = "bi=1"; }
if(isset($_GET['print'])) { $whereClauses[] = "print=1"; }
if(isset($_GET['online'])) { $whereClauses[] = "online=1"; }

$query = "SELECT * FROM  `project` ORDER BY  `project`.`position` ASC ";
if(count($whereClauses))
{
    $query .= " WHERE " . implode(" AND ", $whereClauses);
}


with this error msg
There was a problem with the SQL query: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE online=1' at line 3

I get this kinda error a lot as im still learning is there any way to better find out whats going wrong i use

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
at the start of my scripts but it dont tell me a lot. i can work  out it some thing to do with the $whereClauses  as the page displays ok on show all.

Im bit stumped here not even sure what to call the prob is it sql query error or php array problem

thanks for any help 

hello.

i have a column called "pageName" and on the each page i have put $pName = "the name of that page".

i want to pull from the database all the information where the $pName on the page is the same as the pageName in the database

its getting the $pName = "adminHome" but it thinks its the name of the column not the row.

this is the error im getting:

Quote

DATABASE.PHP - confirm_query = MySQL Datatbase Query Failed: Unknown column 'adminHome' in 'where clause'

Last SQL query: SELECT * FROM pages WHERE pageName=adminHome



this is the function code
Code: [Select]
public static function find_by_pageName($pName=""){
global $database;
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ".self::$table_name." WHERE pageName=".$database->escape_value($pName)."";
$result_array = self::find_by_sql($sql);
return !empty($result_array) ? array_shift($result_array) : false;
}


this is the page code
Code: [Select]
<?PHP
require_once("../includes/initialize.php");

$pName = "adminHome";

$page = Pages::find_by_pageName($pName);
?>



thanks
rick

I can't honestly see whats wrong with this code,
it's print'ing correct with the print_r.
Code: [Select]
Array ( [value1] => 2 [option] => - [value2] => 1 )
however i can't actually echo out the value1,value2 or option?
It says the vars are empty yet it can still print_r the values so i know there not empty
Code: [Select]
<?php
if(isset($_POST["submit"])){
$value1=$_POST["value1"];
$value2=$_POST["value2"];
$option=$_POST["option"];
}
print_r($_POST);
echo"$value1";
?>
<form action="index.php" name="submit" method="post">
<input type="text" name="value1">
<select name="option">
  <option>+</option>
  <option>-</option>
  <option>*</option>
  <option>/</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="value2">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
