PHP - Sorting List In Php
Hi!
I have this problem that I have to solve in PHP. I have such a difficult with this programming and I would be so grateful if someone could help me solve this.
The problem:
A lecturer has a group of students who need to be assigned to one of two groups for the
Similar TutorialsHello. I am just trying to sort an array alphabetically. Here's the code I'm using: function GetAssocCharities($registrationNo) { $db = ConnectionString::ConnectTo_www_ago_mo_gov_data(); $sqlstring = "SELECT * FROM charityPartners where RegistrationNo LIKE '$registrationNo' ORDER BY Name"; $results = @mysql_query($sqlstring); $org = null; while ($resultArray = mysql_fetch_array($results)) { $temp = new Registrants($resultArray['ARegNoFormatted'], $resultArray); $org[] = $temp; } return asort($org); } When I try to loop through the array using a foreach loop, I get an error that Invalid argument supplied for foreach(). Here's my foreach loop: $lstCharities = OrgQueries::GetAssocCharities($registrant->RegNoFormatted); foreach($lstCharities as $c) { //dom something here } I'm sure its something with not understanding list v array or something or that nature, but I'm not having much luck figuring it out with google. Thanks! I'm trying to sort this dropdown box. It reads from a directory, and lists the file name in the dropdown box. Here's the tricky part... the filename is listed differently in the dropdown than in the directory by using explode(). I want to sort it though since it's still being sorted by the directory listings... For example: Filename starts out as: 123_abc_567.pdf then gets listed as abc_123_567.pdf in the dropdown, but it's still getting sorted as if it were 123_abc_567.pdf How can I do that? Here's my code: // Define the full path to folder from root $path = "C:/Work_Orders/"; // Open the folder $dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path"); echo "<form method=\"POST\" action='".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."' name='selectworkorder'><select name='ordernumber2'>"; // Loop through the files while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) { //Remove file extension $ext = strrchr($file, '.'); if($ext !== false) { $file = substr($file, 0, -strlen($ext)); } if($file == "." || $file == ".." || $file == "index.php" ) continue; //explode file name $changedordernumber = explode("_",$file); //put in new order $changedordernumber = $changedordernumber[1]."_".$changedordernumber[0]."_".$changedordernumber[2]; $changedordernumber=trim($changedordernumber,"_"); //list options echo "<option name='$file' value='$file'>$changedordernumber</option>\n"; } echo "</select><input type='submit' value='Change' name='submit'/></form></div>"; // Close closedir($dir_handle); Hi first tyvm for reading my help request me and my friend ar trying to build a order form (see png file ^^) so the main idea is some on go to order form.php
in that order form they fil in thear info like name, adress you know ^^
thean here is the treaky part at the and of the form they kan add products to there order by selecting it or search it from the drop down list the items in the dropdown list come from msql
the client can add more or delete items by clicking - or + whean the clint click send the client need to get a mail whit there a list of what theay have orderd and there unic order number wel so far we can do that but we wont to send another list to the company of order where the added products in the order ar sorted out based on the product id number
this is what we have so far http://clientconstru...sion.nl/valeri/
tyvm again voor anyone who read this ^^

All works perfectly. The dropdownlist consists of 3 parts <optgroups> first is current selection (what is the usesr current selection)works fine, The second <optgroup> is existing words, what words we(the site) have given as options, and the third <optgroup> is the words that others have used. This is where im having a small problem. Because its a text field when i call the data from the database, it calls the entire text box as a single option in my select list.. I want to break the words in the text field (at the comma) and have them listed each one as an option in the select list. Example what i need: Words in text box:(my input allows the "comma") word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, word6, How i want them called/displayed: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> here's my code: $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $original_functionsexperience =doSelectSql($query,1); $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $functionsexperiencelist=doSelectSql($query); $funcexpList ="<select multiple=\"multiple\" onchange=\"setFunctionsexperience(this.options)\">"; foreach ($functionsexperiencelist as $functionsexperienceal) { $selected=""; if ($functionsexperienceals->allwords == $original_functionsexperience) $selected=' selected="selected"'; $allwords=$functionsexperienceal->allwords; $funcexpList .= "<optgroup label=\"Current selection\"> <option value=\"".$allwords."\" ".$selected." >".$allwords."</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Existing Words\"> <option value=\"existing1,\">existing1</option> <option value=\"existing2,\">existing2</option> <option value=\"existing3,\">existing3</option> <option value=\"existing4,\">existing4</option> <option value=\"existing5,\">existing5</option> <option value=\"existing6,\">existing6</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Others added\"> //heres problem <option value=\"".$allwordsgeneral."\">".$allwordsgeneral."</option> </optgroup>"; } $funcexpList.="</select>"; $output['FUNCEXPLIST']=$funcexpList; The result im getting for optgroup others added: word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, how can i get it like this: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> Hi , I have one question .. Can I split showing of content of dynamic list in 2 parts , when I echo list in code .. Code: [Select] <?php // Run a select query to get my letest 8 items // Connect to the MySQL database include "../connect_to_mysql.php"; $dynamicList = ""; $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products ORDER BY date_added DESC LIMIT 8"); $productCount = mysql_num_rows($sql); // count the output amount if ($productCount > 0) { while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){ $id = $row["id"]; $product_name = $row["product_name"]; $price = $row["price"]; $date_added = strftime("%b %d, %Y", strtotime($row["date_added"])); $dynamicList .= '<table width="100%" border="2" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"> <tr> <td width="17%" valign="top"><a href="product.php?id=' . $id . '"><img style="border:#666 1px solid;" src="inventory_images/' . $id . '.jpg" alt="' . $product_name . '" width="77" height="102" border="2" /></a></td> <td width="83%" valign="top">' . $product_name . '<br /> $' . $price . '<br /> <a href="product.php?id=' . $id . '">View Product Details</a></td> </tr> </table>'; } } else { $dynamicList = "We have no products listed in our store yet"; } mysql_close(); ?> Code: [Select] <p><?php echo $dynamicList; ?><br /> </p> It works ok, and putting my files, everything works, but when I put 8 pictures with price and other details, it just show one image with details and another image below with details, and the third image below and so on .. Can I split dynamic list to show 4 images with details on the left side and 4 on the right side? Thank you in advance for help , if is possible Hi, I use the following code to create a select menu from an array of options stored in LISTS.php: include 'LISTS.php'; print('<select id="from" name="from">'); foreach ($langList as $lang) {printf('<option %s>%s</option>', ($from1 == $lang ? 'selected="selected"' : ''), $lang); } echo '</select>'; where LISTS.php includes the following: $langList = array(' ','English', 'French', 'German', 'Dutch', 'Spanish'); This works great, but now I want to do something similar with a checkbox list, where each checkbox has an associated 'onchange' javascript function and I'm getting pretty stuck. My checkbox list is of the following form: Code: [Select] <html> <ul style="height: 95px; overflow: auto; width: 200px; border: 1px solid #480091; list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> <li id="li1b"><label for="chk1b"><input name="chk1b" id="chk1b" type="checkbox" onchange="function1('chk1b','li1b')">Option1</label></li> <li id="li2b"><label for="chk2b"><input name="chk2b" id="chk2b" type="checkbox" onchange="function1('chk2b','li2b')">Option2</label></li> //etc. </ul> </html> What I want to do is have 'Option1', 'Option2', etc. stored in an array in LISTS.php and have a PHP script that populates the checkbox list accordingly, in a similar manner to my select menu above. I can't work out how to get the ID of the next <li> and the next <input> in the list to go up by one each time, e.g. 'li1b' then 'li2b', 'li3b', etc. Could someone pls help me out? Thanks! Is there a way to take data that is listed like a,b,c,d,e and turn that into an unordered list? Basically, I'm going to have a list of schools that will be listed with comma separators. I'll print that data out in two places, one will be printed as it's in the database. The other I would like to echo as an unordered list. I have an array like this: $array[$row] = array ( 'name' = $name, 'discount' = $discount, 'price' = $price ); Now, I have about 200 of those in that array, and im trying to sort by the discount, highest 1st. How would I go about doing that? Thanks. Just a further question from a earlier post that was complete if i do a search and i want to order them from a drop box the if statement would it just look like Quote "select * from Table order by '".$_POST['order']."'" Or would this not work ? Thanx Hello. I have a multi dimensional array that needs to be sorted. Array top25 [index][product id][number_of_purchases]. The index will contain a unique number for each product id. First product will be 1, second product will be 2, etc. The product id will be a id number like 34324ac9a89. The number of purchases will be how many times the item has been purchased. - End result: I want to print the 25 most purchased products in this format. product id - number of purchases a39acz - 503 a8cz9c - 480 zc8ac - 392 How do I do this? Thanks I have a situation where I need to sort files on a screen based on the date that is embedded into the file name. The problem is that I am sorting based off the file name, and when I get my output the LEGACY file always comes out on top of the sort because it starts with a 0 meanwhile the rest have dates appended the the filename so I don't have a problem sorting those. Please help me if you can. <? //Special case for extra files IF($Recordmyrow['App'] == "(Printable)") { $display = false; $column3 = "Printable VER"; IF($securityvalue == "P") { if(substr($path, 0, 5) == "file:") { $filename = substr($path, 5); if(file_exists($filename)) { $basename = substr($filename, 0, strrpos($filename, '.')); $ext = ".pdf"; $allfiles = glob("{$basename}*.pdf"); rsort($allfiles, SORT_NUMERIC); foreach($allfiles as $file) { if($ext == ".pdf") { $column4 = "<a href=\"pdf.php?src={$file}\">VIEW</a><br />\n"; $codate = substr($file, 70, 8); $co = substr($file, 59, 1); if ($codate != "pdf") { $column3 = "Printable File - ".$codate; } elseif ($codate == "pdf") { $column3 = "Printable File - LEGACY"; } IF($lastGroup != $Recordmyrow['Grouping']) { $lastGroup = $Recordmyrow['Grouping']; ?> <TR> <TD colspan="4" align="center" bgcolor="#418765"><B><FONT color="white"><? echo $Recordmyrow['Grouping'] ?></FONT></B></TD> </TR> <? } ?> <TR> <TD class="display" align="center" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>"><B><? echo $column1 ?></B></TD> <TD class="display" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>"><B><? echo $column2 ?></B></TD> <TD class="display" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>"><B><? echo $column3 ?></B></TD> <TD class="display" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>" align="center"><B><? echo $column4 ?></B></TD> </TR> <? $rowcount++; } } } else { $column4 = "Not Available"; ?> <TR> <TD class="display" align="center" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>"><B><? echo $column1 ?></B></TD> <TD class="display" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>"><B><? echo $column2 ?></B></TD> <TD class="display" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>"><B><? echo $column3 ?></B></TD> <TD class="display" bgcolor="<?=changeColor($rowcount)?>" align="center"><B><? echo $column4 ?></B></TD> </TR> <? $rowcount++; } } } } i need to sort my database results by the day they were added to the database. There is a column with the timestamp of when they were inserted but how do i group them by the day they were inserted so i can display them as such: Mon 14th: 5 records Tues 15th: 11 records etc. Part of my code: Code: [Select] <?php $arr = array ("Christina", "Daniel", "Andreea); reset($arr); foreach ($arr as $username) { //more code here ... foreach ($stats as $result) { echo $username."'s points - ".$result."<br />"; } } ?> And gives this: Code: [Select] Christina's points - 14 Daniel's points - 45 Andreea's points 23 My question is: can you sort the the $result so it will show Code: [Select] Daniel's points - 45 Andreea's points 23 Christina's points - 14 Thank you How hard would something like this be? I have a database with all my users. I need an empty list and when a user clicks a button "Add me to the list" they are added to the first position in the list Slots 1. Tom 2. 3. 4. 5. Later, Jerry wants to be added to the list. So this happens Slots 1. Jerry 2. Tom 3. 4. 5. More people join the list 1. Bob 2. John 3. Jerry 4. Tom 5. Tom gets upset clicks the same button to join the list again, and he's bumped back up to first place. Slots 1. Tom 2. Bob 3. John 4. Jerry 5. Is this possible? And is so, how would I go about getting started on such a thing? I've been using PHP for about a year and a half. Hi - I'm modifying some PHP code that someone else wrote. Below is a snippet of code that basically takes mp3 files files within all the folders in a directory, and creates an RSS feed. In the resulting feed, the files are intermingled in date order. Instead, I'd like them sorted by the directory that they are in. So, if there are files in these directories: 01-First 02-Second 03-Third I'd like all the files in the "01-First" directory to come before the "02-Second" directory and so on. Within each directory the files can be sorted as they currently are. The name of the directory in the code is signified by $dir_name. I tried sort() and array_multisort() but I couldn't get either of them to work the way I wanted. Any thoughts? if ($url_params['mode'] == 'rss2') { print getRSSHeader('UTF-8', $device, $vm_config, $vm_name, $web_master, $logo_image,$context); $mailboxes = array(); if ($dev_dir = @opendir($VMHome . $device)) { //might fail if mailbox has not received first message yet while ($f = readdir($dev_dir)) { if (!eregi("tmp","$f") && !eregi("\.+","$f") && !eregi("Exclude-From-CD", "$f")) { //skip tmp directory and Exclude-From-CD Directories array_push($mailboxes,"$f"); #collect all existing mailboxes } } array_multisort($mailboxes, SORT_DESC); foreach ($mailboxes as $mailbox) { $files=array(); $dir_name = $VMHome . $device . '/'. $mailbox .'/'; $dir = opendir($dir_name); while ($f = readdir($dir)) { if (eregi("\.txt",$f)){ #if filename matches .txt in the name array_push($files,"$f"); #push into $files array } } foreach($files as $file){ $props = getProperties($dir_name, $file); $uid = getMP3File($dir_name, $file, $props, $device, $mailbox, $vm_config, $vm_name,$context); print getRSSItem ($props, $uid, $dir_name, $device, '/' . $mailbox . '/', $context); } } } print ' </channel> </rss>'; } Greetings! I would like to ask for you help sorting a couple of lists that are autogenerated with php. The page reads a content of a folder and makes a menu from the names. The folder names a a, b, c, d... etc. The other part reads the content of the selected folder and displays the files. My problem is, that on windows, using xampp, the both the folders and files appear in alphabetic order (what I want), but on the linux server they get completely messed up. Instead of a, b, its o, a, d, etc. I tried using the sort() function but there is no array to sort... Thank you for any suggestions and help! Inka ps. the server has php 4.3.9... does this matter? could help if we upgrade to 5.3? here is the code: Code: [Select] <?php $dh = opendir($dir); while (false !== ($filename = readdir($dh))) { $files[] = $filename; if ($filename != "." && $filename != "..") { if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == "index.php?l=" . $filename .

Is it possible to do it without javascript (I am new to PHP and JS is still unknown to me)? Happy New Year from a Newbie.
I have data in a MySql database table (let's call it data_table) which is input by users via a form. Their input consists of one or a list of items seperated by spaces. This ends up in one column (let's call it data_col) as in the following example format:
id data_col
1 cat
2 elephant giraffe
3 dog rabbit
4 snake cat bird
5 fish dog
.. etc.
I need help with a PHP script to read only this column into a string variable with which I can then (a) use explode to seperate it into an array containing the seperated words and removing the spaces, if any, at the same time and (b) use array_unique to remove any duplicated words in the array, before finally displaying the array as an A-Z ordered list as below.
bird
cat (duplicate removed)
dog (duplicate removed)
elephant
fish
giraffe
rabbit
snake
Many thanks for any help offered.
Hello! I have a 2D array that look as follows: $test["name"][0] = "arnold"; $test["name"][1] = "nate"; $test["name"][2] = "steve"; $test["id"][0] = 2; $test["id"][1] = 0; $test["id"][2] = 1; This means arnold has an ID of 2, nate has an ID of 0 and steve has an ID of 1. Now I want to sort the array based on the ID value, so I want to achieve the following result: $test["name"][0] = "nate"; $test["name"][1] = "steve"; $test["name"][2] = "arnold"; How would I achieve this?
