PHP - Dropdownlist Which Queries Database And Searches Images From Folder.
Hey guys, i'm new to this site and would need some help with coding.
So i'm making a car part website which should has brand/model search. It's a dropdown search which will get the brand / model from database and should display all the parts for that exact model, from folder. Database structure which i have is id, master, name. ( Here's some pictures to clear out what i'm doing. http://imgur.com/a/7XwVd ) So the problem is that it does not get the images from folder named ex: *_audi_a3.jpg. And link to codes what have been written already. Parts.php: http://pastebin.com/q6vdypge Update.php: http://pastebin.com/DymhGQ17 Search_images.php: http://pastebin.com/LF5Q0i8f Core.js: http://pastebin.com/bgc0y4TS I don't know what's wrong with it sadly. One thing i noticed when i used firebug it gives error on category when searching error:true. Hope you guys understand what i mean here, and also all help is appreciated. And move this post if it's in wrong place. Thanks! Edited by aeonius, 17 October 2014 - 12:15 PM. Similar TutorialsBasically i have a folder with 100+ images they are NOT all the same extension, what im wanting to do is use PHP to find all the images and put them all in a database. how would i go about doing this? thanks I have this script from http://lampload.com/...,view.download/ (I am not using a database) I can upload images fine, I can view files, but I want to delete them.

any ideas please?

Let me give you a couple of examples.
For the first example, I have a table which includes all the pages I have on a website, and includes information about them such as some directory path, the minimum user access level to view, etc. The only time it will change is if I add a page or modify settings on an existing one. Instead of performing the query each time, maybe I should do it once for each user session and store the results in a session array? But if I do, how do I force a reload should I ever make a change. Or maybe I should do it once for all users, but this probably doesn't make much sense.
For a second example, I have a bunch of sites which use common code. Each has their own subdomain which in turn identifies a primary key which with multiple joins makes each site unique. The user could change the settings, however, will rarely do so. Instead of querying the big query each time, should I store the settings in a session, and only query the database if some part of the session is not set or if the session "last_updated" value is different than that stored in the database? Yes, I will still need a query, but it will be small and hopefully more efficient).
For a third example, I have some JSON data available to the client. Most clients will cache the data, so I shouldn't have much problems there. I could also server cache it, but again, how do I know when to force a reload?
Thank you, and Happy New Year!
I have been reading in Larry Ullmans book "Visual QuickPro Guide PHP 6 and MySQL 5" and I find it well-written. Since it is from 2008, it does not contain anything about MySQL PDO, but rather does it in the mysqli_* way. Larry suggest placing the secret database password and more along with a database connection script in a connect.php file, placed above the webroot if possible. Then later, when he is creating queries and executing them in other php files, he includes the connect.php file before making the queries.
Now I know it is very important to be careful with the Error handling, so the script won't output errors, which could reveal something about the database making it less secure. Therefore I am wondering how to structure things when using PDO. I need to write error-handling scripts for the following situations:
a) Connection to the database doesn't succeed
b) The execution of the queries doesn't succeed
c) User input in HTML forms are not appropriate
and probably more. The recommended way of handling errors when using PDO seems to be writing some try-catch code. But then I don't see how I can keep the connection to the database completely inside the connect.php file. Either I will need to use a die() or exit() inside this file or I will need to give up my idea to keep everything which concerns the connection to the database in the file mentioned AND write nested try-catch sentences - first make sure the connection works, then make sure the query will execute properly.
I don't like either of those approaches. Firstly I have been told that using exit() is bad programming and secondly it seems to get more complicated using nested try-catch code and to let database connection take part in diverse php-files.
Maybe somebody have a smart, convenient and secure way to do it?

Hello, I've created a function whereby I want to return the school_id associated with a particular user. Each user will be associated with exactly one school. My query below works, but the thing that it returns is an array; I need to make use of it as a variable (say $instructor_school_id). Any idea how to make the conversion from a single element array into a non-array variable? Thank you.... function getInstructorSchool($read, $user_id) { $sql = "SELECT school_id FROM users WHERE user_id = $user_id"; return $read->fetchRow($sql); } As we know the total number of hits to database is proportional to the number of page views if page views * queries per page is more than the capacity of your database, then mysql queries may show problem. is there any way to calculate the database capacity ?

When I try to execute the image name, it works successfully, but when I try to disply the image from the folder by using the image name in the database, I fail each time. The folder where the images are being stored is named: saveimage Here is the query: Code: [Select] <?php mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '') or die ('Connection Failed'); mysql_select_db('imagedatabase'); $images = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM img WHERE email='$lemail'"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($images)) { echo "<img src='saveimage/'".$row['img_description']; } ?> The problem: I'm trying to create a page which outputs images from a folder which I have been able to do, but the problem I'm having is not being able to get the page to display the most recent image according to file modification date at the top. The first set of code below outputs the image timestamps in descending order, from newest to oldest which is what I want, but as soon as I change/add a couple lines of code (Shown in the second lot of code) to get the image file name along with the timestamp, the echoed list (timestamp and file names) gets muddled up in a random order. In short; As soon as the file names are retrieved with the timestamp, the list goes from being organised descendingly, to not.

Can someone tell me how I can remove or delete an image from a folder on a server using PHP? I tried this: Code: [Select] unlink("http://midwestcreativeconsulting.com/jhrevell/wp-content/themes/twentyten_3/upload/" . $location); before my delete MySQL statement, but I keep getting this error: Warning: unlink() [function.unlink]: http does not allow unlinking in /home/midwestc/public_html/jhrevell/wp-content/themes/twentyten_3/removejewelry.php on line 22 Can anyone help and tell me how I can make it work? I'm trying to write code that will let me pull 10 out of 15 images out of a folder and display them on my site. The images are all different, and I don't want dupes to show. So far, I have the following code figured out: --------------- $s = array ("image.jpg", "image2.jpg"); // as many images as you want $n = rand(1,len($s)); // randomly pick a number between 1 and the length of the array echo "<img src='". $s[$n] .'">"; // create an image tag for the randomly selected imagine (value of the randomly defined key) array_pop($s, $n); // This piece isn't right, it needs to EXTRACT and delete the $n array element. // Next random image $n = rand(1,len($s)); echo "<img src='". $s[$n] .'">"; --------------- Any ideas what array_pop should be to work properly? Thank you for the help! I have searched around and found this code that suggests that I should be able to read an image file and echo it directly in to the page without hyperlinking to the file that is outside the public folder, but i get the error message that it is not there even though the file is. Warning: getimagesize() [function.getimagesize]: Unable to access "/home/****/upload/AAABBBCCC.JPG" in /home/****/public_html/client.php on line 40 Code: [Select] $image = "AAABBBCCC.JPG"; $path= "/home/****/upload/"; $details = getimagesize($path . $image); header ('Content-Type: ' . $details['mime']); echo file_get_contents($path . $image); Im using this code to call all the images in a folder: Code: [Select] $handle = opendir(dirname(realpath(__FILE__)).'/images/'); while($file = readdir($handle)){ if($file !== '.' && $file !== '..'){ echo '<img src="admin/img/uploads/'.$file.'" border="0" />'; } } My html says the images are present but they aren't visable on screen: Code: [Select] <div id="contentbody"> <img src="admin/img/uploads/send-button-sprite copy.png" border="0" /> <img src="admin/img/uploads/test" border="0" /> <img src="admin/img/uploads/counter.jpg" border="0" /> <img src="admin/img/uploads/send-button-sprite.png" border="0" /> </div> Any help is much appreciated! Hi
I echo out images from a folder. The problem is that I have a html file in the same folder but I don't want to echo that out. How can I write my code to get rid of the html in the output?
Here my code:
<?php $filetype = '*.html'; $dirname = substr('$filetype'); $i=0; if (isset($_POST['submit2'])) { //get the dir from POST $selected_dir = $_POST['myDirs']; //now get the files from within the selected dir and echo them to the screen foreach(glob($selected_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . '*') as $dirname) { echo substr($dirname, 0, -4); echo '<img src="'.$dirname.'" />'; echo "<label><div class=\"radiobt\"><input type='radio' name='radio1' value='$i'/></div></label>"; } } ?>P.S. when I echo out : substr($dirname, 0, -4); I want to get ride of the html filename there too. How can I do so something like this? I have a PHP CRUD application and when i delete a row i need it to delete from the MySQL and the image from the uploads folder as well. I have researched and tried dozens of ways with the unlink option but nothing works. If i take out the unlink from my code it will delete fine from the DB. I am new to coding and PHP so any help would be awesome. The file_path is correct. The uploads is the name of the folder where the image is stored and the $_POST["image"] is the column name in MySQL where the image name is stored. delete.php <?php //start PHP session session_start(); if (!isset($_SESSION['success'])) { header("Location: login_page.php"); die(); } // check if value was posted if($_POST){ // include database and object file include_once 'config/database.php'; $file_path = 'uploads/' . $_POST["image"]; if(unlink($file_path)) { // delete query $query = "DELETE FROM myDBname WHERE id = ?"; $stmt = $con->prepare($query); $stmt->bindParam(1, $_POST['object_id']); } if($stmt->execute()){ // redirect to read records page and // tell the user record was deleted echo "Record was deleted."; }else{ echo "Unable to delete record."; } } ?> this is the delete button code echo "<a delete-id='{$id}' class='btn btn-danger delete-object'>"; echo "<span class='glyphicon glyphicon-remove'></span> Delete"; echo "</a>"; This is the javascript for the delete button as well. // delete record $(document).on('click', '.delete-object', function(){ var id = $(this).attr('delete-id'); bootbox.confirm({ message: "<h4>Are you sure?</h4>", buttons: { confirm: { label: '<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-ok"></span> Yes', className: 'btn-danger' }, cancel: { label: '<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"></span> No', className: 'btn-primary' } }, callback: function (result) { if(result==true){ $.post('delete.php', { object_id: id }, function(data){ location.reload(); }).fail(function() { alert('Unable to delete.'); }); } } }); return false; });
