HERES THE CODE IM WORKING WITH :
<?php //if form has been submitted process it if(isset($_POST['submit'])){ $_POST = array_map( 'stripslashes', $_POST ); //collect form data extract($_POST); //very basic validation if($title ==''){ $error[] = 'Please enter the title.'; } if(!isset($error)){ try { //insert into database $stmt = $handler->prepare('INSERT INTO event_calendar (title,event_date,description) VALUES (:title, :description, :event_date)') ; $stmt->execute(array( ':title' => $title, ':description' => $description, ':event_date' => date('Y-m-d') )); //redirect to index page header('Location: index.php?action=added'); exit; } catch(PDOException $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); } } } //check for any errors if(isset($error)){ foreach($error as $error){ echo '<p class="error">'.$error.'</p>'; } } ?> <form action='' method='post'> <p><label>Title</label> <input type='text' name='title' value='<?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['title'];}?>'></p> <p><label>Description</label><br /> <textarea name='description' cols='50' rows='5'><?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['description'];}?></textarea></p> <p><label>Date of Event : (y-m-d) :</label><input name="event_date" type="date" value='<?php if(isset($error)){ echo $_POST['event_date'];}?>'></p> <p><input type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit'></p> </form>Could anyone please just look through it.. My database structure is simple.. id, title, description, event_date Thanks in advance Similar Tutorials$day = $_POST['day']; $month = $_POST['month']; $year = $_POST['year']; $date = date("Y-m-d", time(0,0,0,$month, $day, $year)); $sql="INSERT INTO child_info (first_name,middle_name,first_family_name,second_family_name, gender,birthdate,mother_living,father_living,brothers,sisters,resident_time,dorm,school,grade_level,school_subject,speak_english,food,medical_allergies,physical_limits,future,instrument,work,social,special_people,hobby,sponsor) VALUES ('$_POST[first_name]','$_POST[middle_name]','$_POST[first_family_name]','$_POST[second_family_name]','$_POST[gender]','$_POST[date]','$_POST[mother_living]','$_POST[father_living]','$_POST[brothers]','$_POST[sisters]','$_POST[resident_time]','$_POST[dorm]','$_POST[school]','$_POST[grade_level]','$_POST[school_subject]','$_POST[speak_english]','$_POST[food]','$_POST[medical_allergies]','$_POST[physical_limits]','$_POST[future]','$_POST[instrument]','$_POST[work]','$_POST[social]','$_POST[special_people]','$_POST[hobby]','$_POST[sponsor]')"; I'm having problems posting date from my MYSQL database. The date in my database is this "2011-01-08 02:53:14" but the it only echo's "01.01.70" Could someone help me figure out why? Here is my code: Code: [Select] <?php $servername='localhost'; $dbusername='root'; $dbpassword=''; $dbname='store'; connecttodb($servername,$dbname,$dbusername,$dbpassword); function connecttodb($servername,$dbname,$dbuser,$dbpassword) { global $link; $link=mysql_connect ("$servername","$dbuser","$dbpassword"); if(!$link){die("Could not connect to MySQL");} mysql_select_db("$dbname",$link) or die ("could not open db".mysql_error()); } // Get all the data from the "example" table $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM henvendelser WHERE status = 'Ubehandlet' ORDER by id desc ") or die(mysql_error()); echo "<table cellspacing='12px' cellpaddomg='5px' align='center'>"; echo "<tr> <th>ID</th> <th> Opprettet </th> <th>Navn</th> <th>Telefon</th> <th>Emne</th> </tr>"; // keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $postTime = $row['date']; $thisTime = time(); $timeDiff = $thisTime-$postTime; if($timeDiff <= 604800) { // Less than 7 days[60*60*24*7] $color = '#D1180A'; } else if($timeDiff > 604800 && $timeDiff <= 1209600) { // Greater than 7 days[60*60*24*7], less than 14 days[60*60*24*14] $color = '#D1B30A'; } else if($timeDiff > 1209600) { // Greater than 14 days[60*60*24*14] $color = '#08C90F'; } echo '<tr style="color: '.$color.';">'; echo '<td>'. $row['id'] .'</td>'; echo '<td>'. date('d.m.y', $postTime) .'</td>'; echo '<td><a href="detaljer.php?view='. $row['id'] .'">'. $row['Navn'] .'</a></td>'; echo '<td>'. $row['Telefon'] .'</td>'; echo '<td>'. $row['Emne'] .'</td>'; echo '</tr>'; } echo '</table>'; ?> Hi I don't know exactly what to do to see correct date of birth into my sql database. I have following code i.e. $month=$_POST['month']; $year=$_POST['year']; $date=$_POST['date']; $date_value="$month/$date/$year"; echo"YYYY-mm-dd format:$date_value"; and sql insert statement is like this $sql = "INSERT INTO table_name(fname, lname, gender, add1, add2, city, state, zip, country, email, phone, cellphone, dob, photo1) VALUES('$fname','$lname','$gender','$add1','$add2','$city','$state','$zip','$country','$email','$phone','$cellphone', '$date_value','" . $image['name'] . "')"; I don't know what exactly I need to do? Even though I changed the setting in php ini to register_globals = On I would appreciate any kind of help regarding this matter. Thanks Smita Hi, I have a little problem that I can't seem to solve myself. My coding skills are very limited, just wanted to mention that . I have a list of rows, bascially banners that members submit. They have to be manually approved by me before they are put on air. So to quicken up this process I made this little code in my admin panel. $bq = mysql_query("SELECT id, usrid, bname, burl, btarget FROM ban_rotator WHERE status = 'Waiting'"); $pb = mysql_num_rows($bq); if ($_GET['ap']) { $bid = $_GET['ap']; mysql_query("UPDATE ban_rotator SET status = 'Active' WHERE id = '$bid'"); It works perfectly except for one thing. It will always show the banner I just approved in addition to the remaining ones that are waiting. Any tips would be appreciated. I have to add that this code is a part of a fairly large admin panel php file. Just realized i need a bit more explanation. If I hit refresh in the browser the one I just approved will be gone. As I would like it to be after hitting Approve on the banner in question. If I just approve the second banner (after approving the first), the first will be gone from the list of waiting and the second will still show until I either hit approve on the third or hit refresh in the brower. Alka Hi, Currently I am making a module for joomla. every article has an publish date, if the article was published in 7 days ago, it will displayed as "article in last week", My idea is to use today's date - publish date, if the result is greater than 7 and smaller than 14, the article will be displayed as "article in last week. Any one know how to write this code? Here is what I have got, but not working. <?php $todays_date = date("Y-m-d"); $result = mysql_query("select * from jos_content where $test between $todays_date-14 and $todays_date-7"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "$todays_date - $row[title]"; } ?> I have tried a large number of "solutions" to this but everytime I use them I see 0000-00-00 in my date field instead of the date even though I echoed and can see that the date looks correct. Here's where I'm at: I have a drop down for the month (1-12) and date fields (1-31) as well as a text input field for the year. Using the POST array, I have combined them into the xxxx-xx-xx format that I am using in my field as a date field in mysql. <code> $date_value =$_POST['year'].'-'.$_POST['month'].'-'.$_POST['day']; echo $date_value; </code> This outputs 2012-5-7 in my test echo but 0000-00-00 in the database. I have tried unsuccessfully to use in a numberof suggested versions of: strtotime() mktime Any help would be extremely appreciated. I am aware that I need to validate this data and insure that it is a valid date. That I'm okay with. I would like some help on getting it into the database. Hi there, I have a string '12/04/1990', that's in the format dd/mm/yyyy. I'm attempting to convert that string to a Date, and then insert that date into a MySQL DATE field. The problem is, every time I try to do so, I keep getting values like this in the database: 1970-01-01. Any ideas? Much appreciated. Does anybody know how to take the queried standard date format - 2012-04-02 for example - and print it to the page as April 2, 2012? Or at the very least, to switch to 04-02-2012? Trying to find some tutorials online. At the moment I am creating a search function for my website. The approach I have in mind is a pseudo-PHP database. To give an example: A HTML form will submit the results to a PHP file. HTML FORM - Colour: Black PHP RESULT PAGE - if ($_POST['color'] == 'Black') {readfile("./products/black/*.html");} HTML FORM - Price: <$50 PHP RESULT PAGE - if ($_POST['Price'] == '<$50') {readfile("./products/less50/*.html");} The problem here is if there is an item that is black and costs less than $50, then its going to be listed twice. There is probably some code I can write to ommit the listing of duplicate entries, but it is probably going to be messy, so I am wondering if its better to use a centralized MySQL database, rather than a pseudo-PHP database? I've never used MySQL and don't know much about it and this is my first real attempt at using PHP. heres the problem i have 3 things in url bar $day $month $year (its important it stays 3 variables in url) i know how to get them but what i need is convert these 3 into 1 value and store it to DATE(it would be good to be date type for later use) type in mysql any ideas? Hi fellas, this is really kicking my arse and i know its so simple! I retrieve a date from the database, done! I am manipulating it to display as i want, done! How the hell do i add 365 days to this date? $date= ($row['date']); $subscription = strtotime($date); echo "<p>Subscription renewal date: ". date('l jS F Y', $subscription) . "</p>"; I am trying to update last logged in entry in the database upon succesful login. I may be way off in the logic here or I may be missing something simple. I don't get any errors and it logs in fine. Just does not update the lastvisit field in the database. Code: [Select] //record date of most recent login $result = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE user_id ='".$_SESSION['userId'] . "'"); $dtCreated = date('Y-m-d'); mysql_query("UPDATE users SET lastvisit=('$dtCreated') WHERE username = $result"); Hi I have started my error checking for my form. I am understand that the date must be inserted in the format yyyy/mm/dd but on my form i need it to be inserted in the format dd/mm/yyyy. I have wrote some code but have only been doing php about a week properly so I can't see what my error is. Whenever I try to insert the date, the form its self does not error but if i check the database the date is simply 0000/00/00. Can anyone help? if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $first_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['first_name']); $last_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['last_name']); $DOB = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['DOB']); $sex = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['sex']); $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); $agree = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['agreed']); $creation_date = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['creation_date']); $user_type = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['member_type']); $access_level = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['access_level']); $validation = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['validation_id']); $club_user = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['user_type']); $date_check = "/^([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{4})$/"; if($first_name == "") { $message = "Please enter a first name"; $success = 0; } else if($last_name == "") { $message = "Please enter a surname"; $success = 0; } else if($DOB =="") { $message = "Please enter your date of birth."; $success = 0; } else if(!(preg_match("/^([0-9]{2})\/([0-9]{2})\/([0-9]{4})$/", $DOB))) { $message = "Please enter your birthday in the format dd/mm/yyyy"; $success = 0; } else if($email =="") { $message = "Please enter a correct email."; $success = 0; } else if($username =="") { $message = "Please enter a username."; $success = 0; } else if($password =="") { $message = "Please enter a password greater than 6 characters long."; $success = 0; } else { $DOB = $explode[2]."-".$explode[1]."-".$explode[0]; $password_md5 = md5($password); $insert_member= "INSERT INTO Members (`first_name`,`last_name`,`DOB`,`sex`,`email`,`username`,`password`,`agree`,`creation_date`,`usertype`,`access_level`,`validationID`) VALUES ('".$first_name."','".$last_name."','".$DOB."','".$sex."','".$email."','".$username."','".$password_md5."','".$agree."','".$creation_date."','".$user_type."','".$access_level."', '".$validation."')"; $insert_member_now= mysql_query($insert_member) or die(mysql_error()); $url = "thankyou.php?name=".$_POST['username']; header('Location: '.$url); Hi people I have some code to retireve dates from a database, see below. The issue is i can not find a way to change the output to d,m,Y instead of what the data comes back from database. Any help with this would be much appriciated. The transaction date is getting the invoice date created back as 2020-04-01 etc, but how to swap this code?, I dont think i can do it within the array. $statement_transactions = array(); $client_total_balance = $client_opening_balance; foreach ($client_invoices as $invoice_entry) { $transaction = [ 'transaction_type' => self::TRANSACTION_TYPE_INVOICE, 'transaction_date' => $invoice_entry->invoice_date_created, 'transaction_amount' => $invoice_entry->invoice_total, 'invoice_id' => $invoice_entry->invoice_id, 'client_id' => $invoice_entry->client_id, 'user_company' => $invoice_entry->user_company, 'invoice_amount_id' => $invoice_entry->invoice_amount_id, 'invoice_item_subtotal' => $invoice_entry->invoice_item_subtotal, 'invoice_item_tax_total' => $invoice_entry->invoice_item_tax_total, 'invoice_total' => $invoice_entry->invoice_total, 'invoice_sign' => $invoice_entry->invoice_sign, 'invoice_status_id' => $invoice_entry->invoice_status_id, 'invoice_date_created' => $invoice_entry->invoice_date_created, 'invoice_time_created' => $invoice_entry->invoice_time_created, 'invoice_number' => $invoice_entry->invoice_number, ]; $client_total_balance += $invoice_entry->invoice_total; $statement_transactions[] = $transaction; }
Hi there, I'm new to PHP so sorry if this is a really basic question. How do i post date of birth collected from a form, into a database? I have the fields in the form set up as 'day' 'month' 'year' all of which are drop-down boxes. I tried doing it one way which i saw on a different website, but it didn't work. Here is what i tried: Code: [Select] '$_POST[day] . - . $_POST[month]' . - . $_POST[year]', More info: In the database table this information is going to, the "date of birth" field is set to "DATE" type. Don't know if that makes any difference I have my database set to insert the current time stamp when an entry is made into the table, I am then trying to retrieve via the following code: $select_view_idea="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name5 WHERE message_number='$message_number'"; $result_view_idea=mysql_query($select_view_idea); while($row_view_idea=mysql_fetch_assoc($result_view_idea)){ extract($row_view_idea); } date_default_timezone_set('US/Eastern'); $date=date('l, F jS Y h:i:s A T', $date); echo $date; The above is outputting: Wednesday, December 31st 1969 07:33:31 PM EST the database contains: 2011-11-18 00:47:56 I need to add date of birth field to registration form and then save it to databse. I cannot figure out what might be best way of storing the date in the table. I could convert it to unix epoch time, or I could do YYYYMMDD.
Thoughts? What would be the easiest method of saving the DOB?
I am not asking on how to do it, just the format. Thanks
I can't figure out how to select something from the database that is under today's date. This is what I have: if($row['date'] == ".date('Y-m-d').' 00:00:00'."' AND date < '".date('Y-m-d').' 23:59:59'.") Any help would be greatly appreciated. hello there.. i have a problem with my php coding where i want to keep date choose by user in the database. this is the drop down date Code: [Select] <select name="Date_Day"> <option> - Day - </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> <option value="10">10</option> <option value="11">11</option> <option value="12">12</option> <option value="13">13</option> <option value="14">14</option> <option value="15">15</option> <option value="16">16</option> <option value="17">17</option> <option value="18">18</option> <option value="19">19</option> <option value="20">20</option> <option value="21">21</option> <option value="22">22</option> <option value="23">23</option> <option value="24">24</option> <option value="25">25</option> <option value="26">26</option> <option value="27">27</option> <option value="28">28</option> <option value="29">29</option> <option value="30">30</option> <option value="31">31</option> </select> <select name="Date_Month"> <option> - Month - </option> <option value="01">January</option> <option value="02">Febuary</option> <option value="03">March</option> <option value="04">April</option> <option value="05">May</option> <option value="06">June</option> <option value="07">July</option> <option value="08">August</option> <option value="09">September</option> <option value="10">October</option> <option value="11">November</option> <option value="12">December</option> </select> <select name="Date_Year"> <option> - Year - </option> <option value="2010">2010</option> <option value="2011">2011</option> <option value="2012">2012</option> <option value="2013">2013</option> <option value="2014">2014</option> <option value="2015">2015</option> <option value="2016">2016</option> <option value="2017">2017</option> <option value="2018">2018</option> <option value="2019">2019</option> <option value="2020">2020</option> <option value="2021">2021</option> <option value="2022">2022</option> <option value="2023">2023</option> <option value="2024">2024</option> <option value="2025">2025</option> <option value="2026">2026</option> </select> the code to connect to the database Code: [Select] $date_year= ($_POST['Date_Year']); $date_month=($_POST['Date_Month']); $date_day=($_POST['Date_Day']); $date=$date_year."-".$date_month."-".$date_day; $query="INSERT INTO aduan (date) VALUES ('date($date)')"; $result=mysql_query($query); if($result){ echo 'Registration success.'; ?><script>window.location ='thanks.php'</script> <?php } else echo 'Registration failed';} when enter a value of date, the database will just show '0000-00-00'.. really hope for your help.. |
