PHP - Best Way To Approach Random Time Blocks With Break Periods In A Day
I am trying to wrap my head around the best approach to accomplish this.
I am trying to come up with a random schedule for a full 24 hour day with random time periods ranges including breaks.
The only constants will be the minimum time and maximum time of the events and the minimum and maximum time of the breaks between each event.
for example
There are three teams
Team A
Team B
Team C
Each event will last either a minimum of 7 minutes to a maximum of 38 minutes
The breaks will last a minimum of 30 seconds to a maximum of 5 minutes.
so the events need to be generated randomly with a break period following each event and the timelines are different for each team
with the current event time left going to a timer on the page
I think I have the part to generate the random blocks figured out by using
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <?php function eventRange($min, $max, $blocks) { $events = range($min, $max); shuffle($events); return array_slice($events, 0, $blocks); } function breakRange($min, $max, $blocks) { $breaks = range($min, $max, 0.1); shuffle($breaks); return array_slice($breaks, 0, $blocks); } echo"<pre>"; print_r( eventRange(7,38,32) ); echo"</pre>"; echo"<pre>"; print_r( breakRange(.5,5,32) ); echo"</pre>"; ?> </body> </html>bur is there a way to make it fill a full 24 hour period and then a way to determine which block to display based on the current time when either team is viewing the page. Sounds totally confusing to me as I try to explain it so I hope what Im asking makes sense. Thanks for any guidance.. Similar TutorialsHello........ Currently i am struggling with php script....... can any one tell me or guide me how to code Automatically generating random number with in the range of 19 to 90 and the number has to change with in 24 hours time duration......... It's urgent........ Thanks in advance..... Rooban.S I have a table with Territory Representative Sales. It has columns that go back 26 months. The columns are SALES_OLDEST_PD_1, SALES_PD_2, SALES_PD_3, ..... SALES_PD_25, SALES_LAST_PD_26, & SALES_CURR_PD_27. SALES_CURR_PD_27 is the current month. I want to build a table with "Last Year To Date Sales" (LYTD), "Current Year To Date Sales" (CYTD), (May 2011), and (May 2010). I know that (May 2011) will be SALES_CURR_PD_27 and (May 2010) will be SALES_PD_15. The trick is that the sales year starts in November. So, I need to figure out a way to match the table columns with "Nov. 09 - May. 10 TOTAL" for (LYTD) and "Nov. 10 - May. 2011 TOTAL" for (CYTD). I am familiar with using mktime() to subtract months. But, I am not sure where to start yet on this project. Jake Code: [Select] while (odbc_fetch_row($rs)) { $M1 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_OLDEST_PD1"); $M2 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD2"); $M3 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD3"); $M4 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD4"); $M5 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD5"); $M6 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD6"); $M7 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD7"); $mate += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD8"); $M9 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD9"); $M10 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD10"); $M11 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD11"); $M12 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD12"); $M13 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD13"); $M14 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD14"); $M15 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD15"); $M16 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD16"); $M17 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD17"); $M18 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD18"); $M19 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD19"); $M20 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD20"); $M21 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD21"); $M22 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD22"); $M23 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD23"); $M24 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD24"); $M25 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_PD25"); $M26 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_LAST_PD26"); $M27 += odbc_result($rs,"SALES_CURR_PD27"); } Note: By the way SMF is changing $M"8" to $M"ate". lol Say you have a string that you know has two, and exactly two, periods in it, like this...
$string = "3.12.8"How can you grab the three different values that are separated by periods (in this case, 3, 12 and ? I was thinking use strpos to find the position of the first period, then could use that info to grab everything up to that position. But then I couldn't figure out how you would find the position of the SECOND period. And even if I could get the exact positions of the two periods, it seems like there should be an easier way to simply retrieve values separated by specific characters. Is there a specific function for this type of thing, or was my initial though correct with having to do it in two parts essentially (find positions of periods, then use that knowledge to get the values)? Thanks! I am wanting to make a product list page with PHP. At the moment I using this code: Code: [Select] $query = "select * from products where category = 'Belts'"; $result = mysql_query($query); while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo $row['name']; } The result is something like this: http://i51.tinypic.com/2w56ljq.png What I want is for them to be aligned like this: http://i53.tinypic.com/w811tz.png Eventually, I am also going to include an image with each product. How would I go about alignment? With CSS or PHP? Hi everyone,
So I'm relatively new to OO PHP and moreover, OO PHP with MVC design pattern.
This may be a largeish post so please bear with me on this one!
So here is a scenario that I'd like to understand. There are likely multiple ways to go about this, but it'd be nice to see what is said.
I'll include what I think should be the solution here and hopefully i'll get some feedback about it.
Scenario:
A page needs to display a list of "parts" for a car. A database table already exists with these parts. The list of parts on the page need to be ordered by name on first load, but then can be re-ordered by users using a drop down list. They can also be filtered, and searched.
A page also exists to display a single car part.
What I think should be, and what i'm struggling with:
Model:
I will have a "part" object which represents an individual car part.
The part object will use a database abstraction layer. On "new Part()" will generate an empty object. ->Load( id ) will load an individual part.
Controller:
I do not know how I would implement this. I know it would contain methods to Filter(), Search() and Order() and that would directly access the Model.
View:
I am lost here too, I need to display a list of car parts, and on another page, a single car part. I understand I should use the same Model for both. However I do not see how I would list the parts.
Some Questions:
Should I have another "model" that is a list of the "Part" model called PaetListModel, or should "Part" be able to generate that list?
I clearly should have 2 views, one for singular part, one for list of parts. Should the view access the model to generate the list before using the data for output?
Should the controller be used in the view instead of the model to generate the initial list (or singular) on page load?
Should the filter functions in the controller reload the "PartsList" from wherever our list is stored?
I think the most important question for me though is:
How would YOU implement the above green scenario?
I would like to learn from peoples examples so I get an idea of what road to follow
I'm looking for some direction as I approach a new challenge. I have a table named friends_and_family and it contains name, email, and age fields. I'm planning a party and want to invite 10 of the people that are between 20 and 35 years old. The format I am considering would query the table and provide a list of those members that fit the age requirement. I would like to generate that result (which I should be capable of handling) so that each person listed has a checkbox next to their name. I imagine I will be creating a resultant form, so that I can then evaluate the result and select the checkboxes for those specific people that I want to invite. Upon submission, an email will be sent to the people with selected checkboxes. How should I approach this best? A for each loop? Implode an array? I'm not very good with AJAX, so I'm thinking along these lines.
Hello everyone, I am new to php and I need a confirmation if this is the correct approach for a code I wrote. Basically, I have a contacts.php page where I have a bootstrap table and a modal with some fields to add a new contact. I managed to write all the code, it works perfect but I want to know if this approach is ok. The application will be much more complex and I don;t want to start on the wrong foot here. I have 2 files: contacts.php and add_new_contact.php. First file, contacts.php: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en" dir="ltr"> <head> <!-- ............ --> </head> <body> <!-- ............ here is the page layout--> <!-- Then I have my modal from bootstrap --> <div class="modal fade" id="addContact" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel"> <form action = "add_new_contact.php" method="post"> <!-- .....content with all the inputs --> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save to database</button> </form> </div> </body> </html> Now, in form action I am telling html to go to add_new_contact.php where I wrote the code for inserting all the values to the database. When doing this, it opens the page and it stays blank because there is no html there. So, in that php file I added a redirect code to the initial contacts.php. Here is the code: Second file: add_new_contact.php: <?php //all the code needed to insert the contact in the database header("Location: http//..../contacts.php"); exit(); ?> So, this works fine. But is this the best way to do it? Thank you. Hi Guys,
Greetings! Co - PHP freaks! I was hired by a company that requires me to create a purchase department program that will generate Quotations, P.O. , Receipt All of the database of this program will be stored to a server computer in a single office and all of the computer has a software that will access the data and should be able to generate a printable file like PDF or something. What is the best approach for this? any suggestions? I appreciate it in advance.
Cheers, MrGhaia So, I'm starting a new project and thought I would try a new approach at loading files and classes to process output. I think my logic is correct, but for some reason I'm getting a blank page. Basically instead of having seperate pages to output different functions and such, I store everything in one page. It's the same deal as the switch case approach, but it uses a foreach loop to cycle through the actions, classes, and functions which are stored in an array. Here's my index.php file: Code: [Select] <?php require('config.php'); include('languages/english.php'); include('classes/Template.php'); $template = new Template; $viewPages = array( 'category' => array('classfile' => 'Category.php', 'classname' => 'category', 'functions' => array('create', 'delete', 'modify', 'merge')), 'questions' => array('classfile' => 'Question.php', 'classname' => 'Question', 'functions' => array('create', 'delete', 'modify', 'votegood', 'votebad')) ); $currentPage = $_REQUEST['action']; foreach($viewPages as $action => $settings){ if($currentPage == $action){ require(INCLUDE_ROOT.'/classes/'.$settings['classfile']); $class = new $settings['classname']; $function = $_REQUEST['do']; $class->$function(); $template->loadTemplate($settings['classname']->viewFile, $vars = array()); if($template->message == FALSE){ die($template->message); } } } ?> Here's the Template class file: Code: [Select] <?php class Template { var $file; var $vars; var $message; function loadTemplate($file, $vars){ if(empty($file) || empty($vars)){ $this->message = LANG_ERR_7; } else if($file = file_get_contents(INCLUDE_ROOT.'/'.$file)){ $this->message = LANG_ERR_7; } else { foreach($vars as $key => $val) $file = str_replace('{'.$key.'}', $val, $file); } $this->message = FALSE; return $file; } } ?> I tried visiting the category action(index.php?action=category;do=create). This is the classfile for that Code: [Select] <?php class category { var $id; var $title; var $description; var $uri; var $message = array(); var $vars = array(); var $viewFile = ''; function create(){ if($_POST['submit']){ //Review the user input and make ure everything is ok $messages = array(); if($this->title == FALSE){ $messages['title'] = LANG_ERR_1; } else if(strlen($this->title) > 30 || strlen($this->title < 5)){ $messages['title'] = LANG_ERR_2; } else if($this->description == FALSE){ $messages['description'] = LANG_ERR_3; } else if(strlen($this->description) > 400 || strlen($this->description) < 10){ $messages['description'] = LANG_ERR_4; } else { $messages = FALSE; } if($messages != FALSE){ $this->messages = $messages; $this->viewFile = INCLUDE_ROOT.'/template/index_body.tpl'; } else { $this->title = htmlentities($this->title); $this->title = stripslashes($this->title); $this->title = htmlspecialchars($this->title); $this->description = htmlentities($this->description); $this->description = htmlspecialchars($this->description); $this->description = nl2br($this->description); $query = " INSERT INTO categories (c_title, c_desc) VALUES('".$this->title."', '".$this->desscription."')"; if(mysql_query($query)){ $this->message['succes'] = LANG_ERR_5; } else { $this->message['fail'] = LANG_ERR_6; } $this->viewFile = INCLUDE_ROOT.'/template/message_body.tpl'; } } else { $this->viewFile = INCLUDE_ROOT.'/template/create_category.tpl'; } } } ?> Now if you look at the Category class, the template file it sets is the "category_create.tpl" file, which I haven't created yet. I'm expecting there to be an error associated with the template class and the file_get_contents function that calls the file, but like I said, I'm just getting a blank page. I've never tried this approach before, so I have no idea what's causing this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I currently use HTML strings within my PHP code to display output. And while it might not be best practice, I find it non-restrictive and I can easily add loops, manipulate variables, etc. within my display. However in the interest of having a cleaner code I'm thinking of separating the HTML, without having to use a Template engine like Smarty. I don't care much about replacement patterns to be honest, I don't mind some PHP code withing the HTML, however my biggest issue is loops and having to modify a variable within each loop. Say I have the following example code (Similar to what I'm using right now): Code: [Select] function student_output() { //Retrieve students from array $students_arr = students_info(); $selected_student = $_GET['selected_student']; $output = '<div id="students_container">'; $output .= '<div class="items_list">'; $i = 1; //Loop through students foreach($students_arr as $key=>$value) { if ($selected_student == $key) { $output .= '<div id="student_name_'.$i.'" class="selected">'.$value['student_name'].'</div>'; $output .= '<div id="student_img_'.$i.'" class="selected"><img src="'.$value['student_image'].'" /></div>'; } else { $output .= '<div id="student_name_'.$i.'">'.$value['student_name'].'</div>'; } $i++; } return $output; } What's the best way to represent this in HTML cleanly without having too much PHP code within? Guys,
I'need help.
How can I get data records from DB in blocks (of about 100 pcs at one block). I have large table with 100.000+ rows in Db, but it's taking a lot of time to get that data.
My idea is to get 100 rows and than click on a button and than get another 100 rows.
I have implemented paging but it's still to slow.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I'm trying to process MS words doc in PHP. I found some samples which use COM applications for this but not working properly (I get only exceptions and no result) and I taught it's the version of word on my localhost or my OS so I tried them on with different windows OS and MS word. but same result, since it would be harder to make it work on remote server (the remote server needs to have MS word installed on) so I'm looking for different approach, what you think?? is there nay good one rather than COM applications? have you ever tried? is it possible to write code with other like ASP or java and combine it with PHP? every little piece of advice would be appropriated, thanks how would i setup special date blocks in date search? for example easter this year is 17-04-2011 to 25-04-2011 for these dates each night will have an extra charge for it now if a user checks 13-04-2011 to 18-04-2011 he will have 4 days of special charge how do i setup this range? Hi, I have a new website I have been working on for the past 6 months supposed to be going live on Jan 1st. It is my first attemp at a home made CMS and I am now in BETA stages, my testers have mentioned that my image upload script is not perfect. At the moment my images simply upload with no alterations. What they have suggested and I agree is that the images should be resized on upload and have unique names. I have tried to do both but failed. I have managed to change the name of the image that is being uploaded by putting random numbers on the end but the name that is stored in the table is the original name and I can't get it to add the random numbers on the end. The other task I totally failed at and have been working on all week and broke my code so bad I have now reverted back to square one. Could someone please help me to add image resize on upload and to put the new image name into my table, I wld be most greatful. Thanks in advance for your time. Code: [Select] <?php $idir = "../fleet/"; // Path To Images Directory if (isset ($_FILES['fupload'])){ //upload the image to tmp directory $url = $_FILES['fupload']['name']; // Set $url To Equal The Filename For Later Use if ($_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/jpg" || $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/jpeg" || $_FILES['fupload']['type'] == "image/pjpeg") { $file_ext = strrchr($_FILES['fupload']['name'], '.'); // Get The File Extention In The Format Of , For Instance, .jpg, .gif or .php $copy = copy($_FILES['fupload']['tmp_name'], "$idir" . $_FILES['fupload']['name'], $file_ext).rand(10000 , 99999).$file_ext); // Move Image From Temporary Location To Perm } } if (isset ($_FILES['fupload2'])){ //upload the image to tmp directory $url = $_FILES['fupload2']['name']; // Set $url To Equal The Filename For Later Use if ($_FILES['fupload2']['type'] == "image/jpg" || $_FILES['fupload2']['type'] == "image/jpeg" || $_FILES['fupload2']['type'] == "image/pjpeg") { $file_ext = strrchr($_FILES['fupload2']['name'], '.'); // Get The File Extention In The Format Of , For Instance, .jpg, .gif or .php $copy = copy($_FILES['fupload2']['tmp_name'], "$idir" . $_FILES['fupload2']['name'], $file_ext).rand(10000 , 99999).$file_ext); // Move Image From Temporary Location To Perm } } if (isset ($_FILES['fupload3'])){ //upload the image to tmp directory $url = $_FILES['fupload3']['name']; // Set $url To Equal The Filename For Later Use if ($_FILES['fupload3']['type'] == "image/jpg" || $_FILES['fupload3']['type'] == "image/jpeg" || $_FILES['fupload3']['type'] == "image/pjpeg") { $file_ext = strrchr($_FILES['fupload3']['name'], '.'); // Get The File Extention In The Format Of , For Instance, .jpg, .gif or .php $copy = copy($_FILES['fupload3']['tmp_name'], "$idir" . $_FILES['fupload3']['name'], $file_ext).rand(10000 , 99999).$file_ext); // Move Image From Temporary Location To Perm } } if (isset ($_FILES['fupload4'])){ //upload the image to tmp directory $url = $_FILES['fupload4']['name']; // Set $url To Equal The Filename For Later Use if ($_FILES['fupload4']['type'] == "image/jpg" || $_FILES['fupload4']['type'] == "image/jpeg" || $_FILES['fupload4']['type'] == "image/pjpeg") { $file_ext = strrchr($_FILES['fupload4']['name'], '.'); // Get The File Extention In The Format Of , For Instance, .jpg, .gif or .php $copy = copy($_FILES['fupload4']['tmp_name'], "$idir" . $_FILES['fupload4']['name'], $file_ext).rand(10000 , 99999).$file_ext); // Move Image From Temporary Location To Perm } } error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); $usr = "user"; $pwd = "pass"; $db = "db"; $host = "host"; # connect to database $cid = mysql_connect($host,$usr,$pwd); if (!$cid) { echo("ERROR: " . mysql_error() .

Thanks for all the help in advance! I have good knowledge of HTML, Css, Php and mysql, i would want to know, the best approach to creating an online dating site. any help hello dear community, i am currently wroking on a approach to parse some sites that contain datas on Foundations in Switzerland with some details like goals, contact-E-Mail and the like,,, See http://www.foundationfinder.ch/ which has a dataset of 790 foundations. All the data are free to use - with no limitations copyrights on it. I have tried it with PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser - but , i have seen that it is difficult to get all necessary data -that is needed to get it up and running. Who is wanting to jump in and help in creating this scraper/parser. I love to hear from you. Please help me - to get up to speed with this approach? regards Dilbertone All good with sending single dimensional form data to the server using application/x-www-form-urlencoded, and having PHP convert it into an array. Also, good with sending simple arrays using []. But then I find myself needing to send a deeper object to the server . For example, I have a form with three text inputs simpleFormName 1, 2, and 3 plus some deeper object. Array ( [simpleFormName1] => bla [simpleFormName2] => bla [simpleFormName3] => bla [deeperObject] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [prop1] => bla [prop2] => true [data] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [p1] => 321 [p2] => 123 ) [1] => Array ( [p1] => 121 [p2] => 423 ) [2] => Array ( [p1] => 221 [p2] => 133 ) ) ) [1] => Array ( [prop1] => blabla [prop2] => false [data] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [p1] => 222 [p2] => 443 ) [1] => Array ( [p1] => 321 [p2] => 213 ) [2] => Array ( [p1] => 111 [p2] => 421 ) ) ) ) )
I see at least four options: Come up with naming structure which "flattens" the data. I have used this approach in the past, but it quickly becomes difficult to manage and I don't want to do so. Not use PHP's POST and and instead use Content-Type: application/json and file_get_contents(php://input) and json_decode the entire request server side. Use PHP's POST and urlencoding but make deeperObject a string using JSON.stringify and json_decode this one field server side. Urlencode the entire object.simpleFormName1=bla&simpleFormName2=bla&simpleFormName3=bla&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bprop1%5D=bla&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bprop2%5D=true&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp1%5D=321&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp2%5D=123&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp1%5D=121&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp2%5D=423&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp1%5D=221&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp2%5D=133&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bprop1%5D=blabla&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bprop2%5D=false&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp1%5D=222&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp2%5D=443&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp1%5D=321&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp2%5D=213&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp1%5D=111&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp2%5D=421 Any recommendations how to best implement? If you recommend using urlencoding for simple forms, but some other approach for more complex data, what criteria do you use to transition from one approach to another? Thanks As above, I have a lottery style site that picks a random number between 1-8 but my users complain for some reason that this is not enough. So i was told to look into using fopen and random.org to generate a random number. Anyone have experience of this and perhaps a code snippet for me to look at and possibly use? help will be appreciated. |
