PHP - If String Doesnt Match Multiple Values
I am trying to make it echo if a string doesn't equal any of the values.
I have tried:
if(!preg_match("/none|Blue|Brown|Green|Grey)/i", $eyecolor)){ echo "Not an eye color"; }

I have this form
<form action="" method="get" name="size"> Størrelse <hr><label><input type="radio" value="9" name="size" onchange="this.form.submit()">92 (2år)</label> <label><input type="checkbox" value="147" name="size" onchange="this.form.submit()">68 (6-9 mdr.) </label><label><input type="checkbox" value="150" name="size" onchange="this.form.submit()">86 (18-24 mdr.)</label> <input type="checkbox" value="149" name="size" onchange="this.form.submit()">80 (12-18 mdr.)</label> <label><input type="checkbox" value="148" name="size" onchange="this.form.submit()">74 (9-12 mdr.)</label> </form>I want to make it so that when the user clicks one checkbox for example size 68 and then checks size 80 I want both sizes to be in the URL query string. But every time the user clicks a new checkbox, the query string changes accordingly. Maybe with a separator like ?size=4:23 and then I will handle it with the DB stuff. Please tell me how to add multiple elements in the query string with this form, thank you! Edited by Stefany93, 21 May 2014 - 08:03 AM. Hi all, i've got a string ($currentcatid) which contains one number which changes dependant on which page the visitor is on.. ie it may be perhaps "23" or "17" . I need to do a check against this string to see if it contains any of the following values .. 31,32, 1, 24 . I cant remember how i did it before but i think it was with pipes.. something along the lines of if ($currentcatid =="31"||"32"||"1"||"24") { action } can anyone help? Thanks Whats the quickest way to find a word in a string and wrap <b> tags around it? Code: [Select] $search = "php web"; $striing = "PHP is the web scripting language of choice"; Basically im looking for the output to be : "<b>PHP</b> is the <b>web</b> scripting language of choice" Hi, how can I match two keywords in a string? eg. if keywords (Kids,Hoody) are in this string (Animal Kids Basic Hoody Blue) do something..... Thanks. Dead simple, I know it is but I'm still a little newbie. I have this chat box, and I don't want people to be able to swear in it so I need help making a function where you call the string as an argument and it returns true if the string has any words from an array in it, Even if the word is walking and not just walk. If it's true I can replace the entire string with something else. Can someone tell me what functions I need? I prefer you didn't do it all for me I need to learn Thanks in advance!

I have attempted to search for an answer to this already, but I'm not sure I'm using terminology that will lead me to an solution, as I haven't come up with much. I'm hoping that someone can provide some assistance, or at least point me in the right direction for some reading. What I am trying to do it search a string for a match to any of 12 words. I'm wondering if there is a smarter way to do this than coding 12 different lines, each one looking for a specific word. If you can point me in the right direction, then thank you very much =) Hi guys,
I wonder if you can offer any advice?
I have two user database tables that are about 70% identical. The problem is that with one of them, the phone number for each user has been cut short by two digits (it was an error on my part early on in the database design).
What I need to do is to get the values from both tables and put them into separate arrays then compare the arrays in a loop. If, say, the first five digits of the phone number in each row of the first table match one entry in the second table then update the second table with the phone number (the full length one).
I'm about puzzled about how to approach this, I've still got a lot to learn about array functions, it seems like it should be fairly simple but I'm a bit lost as to where to begin.
Any advice would be massively appreciated!
I have a cart script, and I need to display the products the user has added. This is a school assignment and I'm very stuck on this seemingly 'little' error. Right now, I have two tables: For time's sake, I am showing duplicate products with different prod_id's: Table: products prod_id category sub_category thumb_href image_href title desc summary manufacturer price 17 sofa leather red_leather_sofa_small.jpg red_leather_sofa_main.jpg Red Leather Sofa [BLOB - 134B] [BLOB - 59B] Balenty 999.99 18 sofa leather red_leather_sofa_small.jpg red_leather_sofa_main.jpg Red Leather Sofa [BLOB - 134B] [BLOB - 59B] Balenty 999.99 19 sofa leather red_leather_sofa_small.jpg red_leather_sofa_main.jpg Red Leather Sofa [BLOB - 134B] [BLOB - 59B] Balenty 999.99 And this is the cart table that holds temporary cart items (storing the product ID to pull later): Table: cart temp_cart_item cart_id (assigned by session_id() ) prod_id user_id 22 jier11u0e7cl2ghosjodpaark2 17 asdfasdf 23 jier11u0e7cl2ghosjodpaark2 17 asdfasdf 24 jier11u0e7cl2ghosjodpaark2 35 asdfasdf 25 jier11u0e7cl2ghosjodpaark2 5 asdfasdf 26 jier11u0e7cl2ghosjodpaark2 19 asdfasdf SO, user 'asdfasdf' is logged in and has selected 5 items for his cart - two of which are the same (prod_id 17). Basically, I need to compare the prod_id's of each table and output all products (and quantities) matching the temporary cart prod_id. What I have now to loop through and display the cart items are (bear with me): echo "<h1>Cart</h1>"; } // Display welcome and navigation links displayWelcome(); displayNav(); // Getting the prod_id's from the table cart to compare with the product table $cart_id = session_id(); $user_id = ($_SESSION['login_username']); $query = "SELECT prod_id FROM cart WHERE cart_id='$cart_id' AND user_id='$user_id'"; $result = mysqli_query($cxn,$query) or die("<h2 class=\"warning\">Whoa!

And the price is not accurate, either. Can anyone help me in where my problem might be? Is it my query? Or my while clause? Hi, My company has 240+ locations and as such some users (general managers) cover multiple sites. When I run a query to pull user information, when the user has multiple sites to his or her name, its adds the second / third sites to the next columns, rather than wrapping it inside the same table cell. It also works the opposite way, if a piece of data is missing in the database and is blank, its pull the following columns in. Both cases mess up the table and formatting. I'm extremely new to any kind of programming and maybe this isn't the forum for this question but figured I'd give it a chance since I'm stuck.

Hi All,
I want to copy into a table values from another table that partially match a given value, case-insensitively. So far I do as follows but I wonder whether there is a quicker way.
$input_table=array('1'=>'toto','2'=>'tota','3'=>'hello','4'=>'TOTO','5'=>'toto'); $input_table_2 = array_map('strtolower', $input_table); $value_to_look_for='Tot'; $value_to_look_for_2=strtolower($value_to_look_for); $output_table=array(); foreach ($input_table_2 as $k=>$v) { if(false !== strpos($v, $value_to_look_for_2)) { $output_table[]=$input_table[$k]; } }One drawback is that $input_table_2 is 'foreached' whereas there might be no occurrences, which would lead to a loss of time/resources for big arrays. Thanks. Hi, I currently have a string with some values in it: $a_random_string="some random text, goes here - $123<br>some more random text goes here - $53 (text 123 )<br>ANother line of text - $126"; Now I want to add all the values that have a '$' before the value eg; $123. So in this case I would end up with: 302 How would I do this? Thanks, mme Hi, I have a string with the value of { "success": true, "delivered": true, "contactDetailsRequired": false, "message": "Signed For by: D ANDERSON ", "signature": "https://webservices.thedx.co.uk/PodImage/ImageHandler.ashx?tn=906732192165", "date": "21-07-2020", "serviceLevelName": "Consigned", "time": "13:33:19", "trackedProductName": "DataExchange" } How do i go about placing the values into variables so for example: $success = "true"; $delivered = "true"; $message = "Signed for by: D ANDERSON"; etc.... My mind has gone blank and im having one of those days, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks okay all i need is a way to make 4 <OPTION> values into a string which i can compare to a row in my db. This is my form. Code: [Select] <select name='n1'> <option value='0'>0</option> <option value='1'>1</option> <option value='2'>2</option> <option value='3'>3</option> <option value='4'>4</option> <option value='5'>5</option> <option value='6'>6</option> <option value='7'>7</option> <option value='8'>8</option> <option value='9'>9</option> </select> <select name='n2'> <option value='0'>0</option> <option value='1'>1</option> <option value='2'>2</option> <option value='3'>3</option> <option value='4'>4</option> <option value='5'>5</option> <option value='6'>6</option> <option value='7'>7</option> <option value='8'>8</option> <option value='9'>9</option> </select> <select name='n3'> <option value='0'>0</option> <option value='1'>1</option> <option value='2'>2</option> <option value='3'>3</option> <option value='4'>4</option> <option value='5'>5</option> <option value='6'>6</option> <option value='7'>7</option> <option value='8'>8</option> <option value='9'>9</option> </select> <select name='n4'> <option value='0'>0</option> <option value='1'>1</option> <option value='2'>2</option> <option value='3'>3</option> <option value='4'>4</option> <option value='5'>5</option> <option value='6'>6</option> <option value='7'>7</option> <option value='8'>8</option> <option value='9'>9</option> </select> here is the php code which i tried but doesnt seem to work. Code: [Select] $n1 = $_POST['n1']; $n2 = $_POST['n2']; $n3 = $_POST['n3']; $n4 = $_POST['n4']; $string = ("" . $n1 . "" . $n2 . "" . $n3 . "" . $n4 . ""); echoing $string does give to correct numbers.. but when i try and compare it to my database it doesnt match. all help would be great. I have a DB of data: article-id, section-id, subsection-id, article-text. When a row is fetched I am displaying article, section, subsection as <h3>, <h4>, <h5> and then text in a <p>. Before outputting the text I want to scan it for other articles, sections, or subsections it may reference then turn that reference into a hyperlink. I read the PHP documentation but I can't find anything that translates to the basic commands of instring, indexof, and left/mid/right. Example: 1. Article Name 100. Article 1, section 1 100.a article 1, section 1, subsection a Text blah blah blah 105.f blah blah blah
I want to find that 105.f and turn it into a link. All my articles, sections, and subsections are in the DB so I know I can use an array of the number values as my items to look for, but I can't figure out how to look. 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! Hi everyone, I'm new to this group and new to php. I have created a multi-part form that allows the user the option to add multiple input fields to a form to upload images. Here is the form structu Code: [Select] <form action="Scripts/processreports2.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="report_form" target="uploader" class="reportfrm"> <fieldset> <legend>Upload your images</legend> <ol id="add_images"> <li> <input type="file" class="input" name="files[]" /> </li> <li> <input type="file" class="input" name="files[]" /> </li> <li> <input type="file" class="input" name="files[]" /> </li> </ol> <input type="button" name="addFile" id="addFile" value="Add Another Image" onclick="window.addFile(this);"/> </fieldset> <p>* indicates a required field.</p> <input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" value="Send Info!" /> </form> Through php a maximum of three input fields are fed into an array that checks to make sure that the uploaded files are images and not some other type of file. The uploading porition of this script works. Now I am trying to get the values of the input fields as a string and insert them into the database as one record. Let's say the user has three files they want to upload. I have managed to get the files as a string ie; file1.jpg, file2.jpg, file3.jpg but what is happening is that I am getting three separate records with file1.jpg, file2.jpg, file3.jpg in them. If the user has only two files to upload then I get two separate records with file1.jpg and file2.jpg in them. (Hope that makes sense). I want one record. I have been struggling with this since Monnday and while every day I get closer, this is as close as I can get. Below is the php code. #connect to the database mysql_connect("localhost", "root", ""); mysql_select_db("masscic"); //Upload Handler to check image types function is_image($file) { $file_types = array('jpeg', 'gif', 'bmp'); //acceptable file types if ($img = getimagesize($file)){ //echo '<pre>'; //print_r($_FILES); used for testing //print_r($img); used for testing if(in_array(str_replace('image/', '', $img['mime']), $file_types)) return $img; } return false; } //form submission handling if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { //file variables $fname = $_FILES['files']['name']; $ftype = $_FILES['files']['type']; $fsize = $_FILES['files']['size']; $tname = $_FILES['files']['tmp_name']; $ferror = $_FILES['files']['error']; $newDir = '../uploads/'; //relative to where this script file resides for($i = 0; $i < count($fname); $i++) { //echo 'File name ' . $fname[$i] .
