PHP - I Want To Create Images Based On A Background And User Input ?
Hello,
I'm embarking on a pretty ambitious task and I need some bits of information here and there.
One of the functions I need to achieve is to build a query or array of photos based on a background image and user input.
So imagine that I have a box and within that box is a column of three rows.
I need to have three different bits of data be placed into each of the subsequent rows and then an image is taken of these three pieces of data overlaying the background photo.
Then stored somewhere with an incremented identifier to be pulled later.
I think I can already begin to imagine how it would work but what eludes me is a "screenshot" function to generate the images. I'm looking for .png or .jpg end result files with fixed width/height and item placement.
Thank you for any help
Similar TutorialsHi there, I found a Javascript with what I want, but I want it to be in PHP because if people don't have Javascript enabled, they won't see the login.

For example, the user might need to search zipcode and username but not gender, but in another case, might need to search username and gender, but not zipcode. Obviously I could just do some if/else statements, but that would be increasingly more difficult as there are more fields. What can I do? the idea on what im doing is like a converter, like showing what your name would look like with certain images per letter, when you input text (your name for example) and when you press the submit button you would get a series of images in a row that represent each character that you typed.
here is the example that i did...
<html> <?php Hi, so far I have managed to set up a somewhat basic login website with a mysql database backend. Once they have logged on they go to a "main menu" page. What I need to define is that user A sees button A but only that button, etc. (Then of course that same rule would have to apply if they tried to directly go to the page, but I am guessing I can do that in the same way that I currently do to force a login). If anyone has any tutorials or sample code I would much appreciate it. Thanks, I hope I can explain what is happening. I have created two forms in PHP. The first 'almost' works, i.e. it shows the data. But I have two problems - 1) the second pulldown menu is always empty and 2) $value from the first pulldown menu ALWAYS equals the last entry thus the last 'if' in the function subdomains ($domains) is always called (but still empty). The code may explain this better than me:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <!-- processDomains.php is this file - it calls itself (for testing purposes so I can see what is happening) --> <form action="processDomains.php" method="post"> <?php // create the domains array (there are actually several entries in the array but I cut it down for testing) $domains = array (1 => 'Decommission', 'Migration'); echo "Select Domain:"; echo "<br>"; // Make the domain pull-down menu - this displays correctly echo '<select name="domain">'; foreach ($domains as $key => $value) { echo "<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>\n"; } echo '</select>'; // input doesn't matter what is 'submitted', always goes to last $value echo '<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">'; // call function subdomains subdomains ($value); function subdomains ($domains) { // define values for each array - each array contains available choices for the subdomain pulldown menu $migration = array (1 => 'Application Migration', 'Application Patch', 'Application Upgrade'); $decommission = array (1 => 'Applications', 'Servers', 'Storage'); if ($domains === 'Migration') { echo "Select subdomain:"; echo "<br>"; // Make the Migration pull-down menu echo '<select name="migration">'; foreach ($migration as $key => $value) { echo "<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>\n"; } echo '</select>'; } else if ($domains === 'Decommission') { /* === * since 'Decommission' is the last entry in the 'Domains' pulldown list, $value ALWAYS equals * 'Decommission' and $domains equals $value. So this menu SHOULD work but is always * empty. Thus, two problems - the pulldown menu is always empty and $value isn't based * upon user input. */ echo "Select subdomain:"; // this prints so I know I'm in 'Decommission (I eliminated the echo "$domain" to show I'm always coming here)' echo "<br>"; // Make the 'Decommission' pull-down menu echo '<select name="decommission">'; foreach ($decommission as $key => $value) { echo "<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>\n"; } echo '</select>'; echo '<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">' ) // end of 'if-else' } // end of function 'subdomain' ?> </form> </body> </html>Let me say thank you in advance and I appreciate the help! I know I'm doing something (or more than one thing) wrong and I hope someone can tell me what it is. Best Regards! Edited by mac_gyver, 19 January 2015 - 09:37 PM. code tags around posted code please Preferably using PHP, I'd like to create X number of colors based on X number of items and using a predefined color range. For example: ITEM VALUE 1 1,234,567,890 2 234,567,890 3 34,567,890 4 4,567,890 5 567,890 Color Range red = largest value green = medium value blue = smallest value Example Item 1 gets color red Item 2 gets whatever color naturally comes between red and green Item 3 gets color green Item 4 gets whatever color naturally comes between green and blue Item 5 gets color blue Requirements The code should be able to handle any number of items. 5 items was just an easy example. Some Thoughts - Number of items = number of colors - How to divide a color range into number of items? - Colors can be represented in decimal format: red=255,000,000 blue=000,000,255 - Can a formula be created, based on the color decimal format, to solve this problem? I think it's the math portion of the problem that I'm stuck on right now. Thanks for your help, Nick Looking for tutorials, but maybe the forum's quicker. Can anybody give me a loose idea how to do this? I have a sequence of pages that the user goes through to enter information. I need to move a page up to pull data before inputting to the database - to prevent some dropped entries and errors. Before, it was using info in the database to loop through and generate data. I want to do it just based on the info in an array: I want array(217 => 1, 215 => 2); to loop generate a form that loops through to create something like: Code: [Select] <form> Student one, Class 217<br> First name: <input type="text" name="fname[]" id="fname" onfocus="this.className='reg_live';" onblur="this.className='reg_off';" /> Last name: <input type="text" name="fname[]" id="fname" onfocus="this.className='reg_live';" onblur="this.className='reg_off';" /> <br><hr><br> Student one, Class 215<br> First name: <input type="text" name="fname[]" id="fname" onfocus="this.className='reg_live';" onblur="this.className='reg_off';" /> Last name: <input type="text" name="fname[]" id="fname" onfocus="this.className='reg_live';" onblur="this.className='reg_off';" /> <br><br> Student one, Class 215<br> First name: <input type="text" name="fname[]" id="fname" onfocus="this.className='reg_live';" onblur="this.className='reg_off';" /> Last name: <input type="text" name="fname[]" id="fname" onfocus="this.className='reg_live';" onblur="this.className='reg_off';" /> <br><hr><br> and so on. <input type="submit" value="Register" /></form> I know something is wrong but dunno how to fix it. My intention is to lock user based on ip after 3 unsuccessful attempts. Its incrementing the login count but after 3 attempts, I just can't figure out how to lock the user and reset the value after some time. I'd like a pointer towards the right/best thing to do should my code not be worthy. Thanks and heres my code: <?php $user_ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $table_name = "loginattempts"; $query = "SELECT attempts FROM $table_name WHERE user_ip = '$user_ip'"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Invalid Login"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $count = $row['attempts']; } if($count == 3){ echo("Your login attempt is completed"); }else{ $insert = "INSERT INTO $table_name WHERE user_ip = '$user_ip'"; $result = mysql_query($insert); $update = "UPDATE $table_name SET attempts = attempts + 1 WHERE user_ip = '$user_ip'"; $result = mysql_query($update); } $update = "UPDATE $table_name SET attempts = 0 WHERE lastlogin - NOW() = '60000'"; $result = mysql_query($update); ?> Hi,
I am a bit of a MYSQL newbie so please bear with me. I have a database created about football/soccer stats. The database at the moment contains the following tables but more maybe added:
Players
Clubs
Seasons
Competitions
I will create php pages for these tables that add, edit and delete records for each. But the problem I can't get my head around is how to add a record that uses data from other tables, for example we would add a...
player -> club-season-competition
Lets say we want create a player called 'Joe Bloggs' and want to add his details, we need somehow for the page to display an option for club, season and competition. Maybe they can be drop down boxes but how does one fill those drop down boxes with records that are already added in the database for each table?
Thanks
Hi
I have a form that has a drop-down with a few to choose from, unfortunately I don't get results for some due to the query involved.
Some need the AND channel LIKE '%$channel%'"; and some don't and therefore will not get desired results. So I would like to run two queries one with and one without.
$query = "SELECT * FROM asterisk_cdr WHERE calldate BETWEEN '$calldate' AND '$calldate2' AND clid LIKE '%$clid%' AND channel LIKE '%$channel%'";
Thanks

Hi all, firstly apologies as this is a cross post from another forum and we have hit a block.. I am hoping that opening this up to another set of gurus we can get a resolution. What I am trying to achieve is this... I have 2 tables Main and FinancialYear. Main holds all data which I use a form to post the data to it..(all works fine). I use this code to create a drop down in the insert.php form. again this works. Code: [Select] <tr><td>Financial Year: xxxx/xxxx</td><td> <!-- pulls the data from the table variable to populate the dropdown menu --> <?php $database = 'Projects_Main'; $fintable = 'FinancialYear'; if (!mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pwd)) die("Can't connect to database 'cos somethin' is wrong"); if (!mysql_select_db($database)) die("Can't select database"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT FinancialYear_id, FinancialYear FROM {$fintable} order by FinancialYear"); $options=""; while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { //$id=$row["FinancialYear_id"]; $thing=$row["FinancialYear"]; $options.="<OPTION VALUE=\"$thing\">".$thing.'</option>'; } ?> <SELECT NAME="FinancialYear"> <OPTION VALUE=0>Choose</OPTION> <?=$options?> </SELECT> </td></tr> What I have done is built another form which list all records in the database and creates an update url for every record that passes the field Project_id where i use $_get to retrieve the Project_id to retrieve the relevant data into the update.php form. I am able to populate the form with all the correct information BUT I am looking to introduce some dropdowns to aid updating the data and provide consistency to the data. . Code: [Select] // Connect to server and select database. mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); mysql_select_db('Projects_Main')or die("cannot select DB"); // get value of id that sent from address bar $Project_id=$_GET['Project_id']; //define vars $FinancialYear=$_POST['FinancialYear']; // other vars defined here also.. about 30 // Retrieve data from database $sql="SELECT * FROM Main WHERE Project_id='$Project_id'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); $rows=mysql_fetch_array($result); ?> //update_record_ac.php posts the data to the dbase. <form name="form1" method="post" action="update_record_ac.php"> <center> <table> <tr><td><b>Store Details<b></td></tr> <tr><td>Financial Year:</td><td> // takes the data from $rows and present to form <input name="FinancialYear" type="text" id="FinancialYear" value="<?php echo $rows['FinancialYear']; ?>"> // this is where I need to create the drop down.. see my other comments in the post..... </td></tr> the financialYear table consists if the following; financialyear_id - pri, auto inc. ---- data format is 2010/2011, 2011/2012.... financialyear the main table contains 30 fields .. won't list em all... Project_id - pri, auto inc financialyear I need the drop down to pull the data from the financialyear table and then to present or focus on the currently stored data... so if the store value in the table Main is 2010/2011 if Ii was to select the update url in the list_record.php it will pull all the relevant data into update_record.php form. the financialyear field in the form should be a dropdown with all the financial years listed but the 2010/2011 is selected or focused. I still need to be able to change the entry and post this back to the table Main..... So the dropdown contains the list of years from the financialyear table but when the record is pulled from table main the year that is stored in table Main should be highlighted in the dropdown and I should be able to select a new record and post back to the table Main.. any thoughts... please don't slate for the cross post, I haven't sanatised the data at any stage. I know i'm open to injection attacks. and yes my code is a little dirty... all these will be rectified as i finalise the process and ensure the consept works. Thanks for taking the time to read and hopefully you are able to understand the requirement and are able to assist. thanks Balgrath I can't find out whats the problem here, would appreciate some input in how to think building my "if".
The problem is that I don't seem to catch if an email exists, nor if user exists and neither can I create a new user :/.

I'm building an intranet and have three seperate user roles, user - manager - admin. There are some menu items I don't want to allow simple users to see.

Jason I would really appreciate help and I hope my problem can be solved easily. I am attempting to display the date/time based on the user's location. I have installed the timezone.js plugin for help as well. Is there a way to convert the Jquery variable that displays the users timezone location and insert it inside the PHP date_default_timezone_set?
If there is an easier way to display the users timezone date and time please let me know otherwise this was the only solution I could find.
Thanks in advanced...

<header> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="Time/detect_timezone.js"></script> <script src="Time/jquery.detect_timezone.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function(){ $('#tzvalue').set_timezone({'default' : 'America/Los_Angeles'}); }); </script> </header> Hi, i coded a very simple forum "website" with registration, login, and a place where everyone posts comments. I wanted to make some sort of profile page for each user so they would each have their own URL too (e.i. test/barney or test/simpsons). each of these pages would have different content, depending on what barney or simpsons puts on that page. i've been looking everywhere trying to find documentation but i don't think i know how to search it correctly. I checked a lot of mod_rewrite documentation but i don't understand if i'm suppose to call a php function to create a profile page or something. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated Thanks! |
