PHP - Retrieving Single Xml Node Value In Php Gcal Script

I know it needs a for loop, but i don't know where in the code i should be putting it?

Code: [Select]
function check_input($value)
{
// Stripslashes
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
  {
  $value = stripslashes($value);
  }
// Quote if not a number
if (!is_numeric($value))
  {
  $value = "'" . mysql_real_escape_string($value) . "'";
  }
return $value;
}

$_POST = array_map('check_input', $_POST);

$sql="INSERT INTO testimonials (CustomerName, Town, Testimonial, SortOrder, Images)
VALUES
({$_POST['customername']}, {$_POST['town']}, {$_POST['testimonial']}, {$_POST['sort_order']}, '$imgname'

)";

}
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con))
  {
  die("<br>Query: $sql<br>Error: " . mysql_error() . '<br>');
  }
echo "<p align=center><b>1 testimonial added</b></p>";

mysql_close($con);


Thanks in Advance,

You would think the answer would be all over the Internet and easy to find, but it’s not. I have searched many times, and in all the multitude of search results I have still never found an adequate usable answer. The MOST you ever find is someone saying how easy it is with PHP, but they don’t tell you how, even when the person they are answering asks them (odd). You can be that one in a billion person who finally answers it for real and helps someone out.

I have a simple HTML form with data fields first_name, last_name, email, phone, country, a few hidden inputs, and a single submit button, like so:

(Please note: the method is GET, not Post.)

<form action="https://MyDomainOnMyServer.com/MyPHPScript.php”> 
<input type="text" name="first_name" value="" />
<input type="text" name="last_name" value="" /> 
<input type="text" name="email" value="" /> 
<input type="text" name="phone" value="" /> 
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="type123"> 
<input type="hidden" name="project" value="new123"> 
<select required name="country"> 
<option value="">Choose your country</option> 
<option value="US">United States</option> 
<option value="CA">Canada</option> 
<option value="GB">United Kingdom</option> 
<option value="Many More">Many More Countries</option> 
</select> 
<input type="submit" value="Submit Form" /> </form>

NOTE: Originally, the form action would have been:

action="https://TheirExampleDomainOnTheirRemoteServer.com/TheirRemotePHPScript.php" name="form1234"

Upon clicking the single submit button only, what I need to have happen is this:

1. Send me an email to whatever@whatever.tld containing all the form submission data

2. Place the form submission data into a MySQL database having the corresponding data fields

3. Send the form submission contents including the hidden input values to "https://TheirExampleDomainOnTheirRemoteServer.com/TheirRemotePHPScript.php" name="form1234" AS IF that had remained set as the original form action to begin with

So basically what I’m trying to obtain is the cleanest possible PHP script that will do those three things, which is essentially what others have asked for over the years in search results I have found, but no one has ever provided it in a clear instance that works. If I can just see such a script, I should be able to see how it works and then do what I need. Thanks.

Hi, I've been scratching my head for a while now about how to do this, I'm relatively new to php and mysql and perhaps foolishly taking on creating a user area for a website.  I have everything else working, all of my register account functions and confirmations and all of the login scripts etc. 

I have created a profile page which returns various information to the user (this bit works fine) and I've got some nice show/hide toggles running with some javascript/css but my intention is to allow the user to change thier information (e-mail address, contact phone number and also whether they are subscribed to the e-mail list), it also displays any support tickets or messages.

So after the long intro, here's what I'm struggling with...  I have a form in a visibility toggled <div> which submits a 'change_email' script, so a user wants to change their e-mail, clicks on change, the <div> appears, they bang in the new e-mail and hit submit.

My php script appears to work (because it doesn't throw up any errors), until you realise that actually it's not updated the record in the db...

I'm using mysql_query("UPDATE users SET email='$new_email' WHERE username='$user'");

Do I need to setup variables for all of the information in the db (name, username, password, email, contno etc etc) and include them in the command to get it to work or should that just pick the correct record and then update it? If that is the case is there a way I can include 'blank' variables so I don't have to set them all up...

e.g.  mysql_query("UPDATE users SET user='',password='',email='$new_email', etc WHERE username='$user'");

Many thanks in anticipation

Hello, all: been trying to convert this little single-file upload to multiple by naming each file form-field as "userfile[]" as it's supposed to automatically treat them as an array.. but no luck!  Can you guide me as to what am I doing wrong??
appreciate the help!


Code: [Select]
<?php

if (!isset($_REQUEST["seenform"])) {
?>
   <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="#" method="post">
   Upload file: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" id="userfile[]">
   Upload file: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" id="userfile[]">
   <input type="submit" value="Upload">
   <input type="hidden" name="seenform">
   </form>
<?php
} 
else 
{ // upload begins
$userfiles = array($_FILES['userfile']);
foreach ($userfiles as $userfile)
{ // foreach begins
   $uploaded_dir = "uploads/";
   $userfile = $_FILES['userfile']["name"];
   $path = $uploaded_dir . $userfile;
   if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']["tmp_name"], $path)) 
     {
   print "$userfile file moved";
   // do something with the file here
    } else 
{
   print "Move failed";
}
} // foreach ends
} // upload ends

?>

Hello
I have xml like this.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<data>
   <item ID="30001">
      <Company>Navarro Corp.</Company>
   </item>
   <item ID="30002">
      <Company>Performant Systems</Company>
   </item>
   <item ID="30003">
      <Company>Digital Showcase</Company>
   </item>
</data>


All i need to do is get any one of the  whole node from starting item tag to ending item tag from the xml, for example.  getting

<item ID="30002">
      <Company>Performant Systems</Company> 
   </item>

from whole xml file.

Can this be achieved using  SimpleXML object from PHP? if not how it can be done.


Thanks in advance

Can someone please explain to me what's the importance of node order? Does certain nodes that appear first or last have impact on traversing time?

Any suggestions much appreciated!

I'm trying to add/update an xml like so:
$xml->Header->Record->$curblk->$row = $value;
where $curblk and $row are obviously nodes.
Problem is that sometimes I need to add/update nodes of the same name so I tried this:
$xml->Header->Record->$curblk->$row[$multi] = $value; where $multi would represent the number (or instance or key?) of that node I wish to add/update.  Issue with that is, php thinks that I'm tring to set the node as an array, which is not possible!

So how do I dynamically add/update $row[0] , $row[1] , $row[2] base on the two variable, $row and $multi? ie:
$row = Jim Bob;
$multi = 0;
<author>Jim Bob</author>
$row = Tom Reed;
$multi = 1;
<author>Tom Reed</author>
You get:
<book>
  <author>Jim Bob</author>
  <author>Tom Reed</author>
</book>Of course there is muuuuch more to it than that, but that is about as simple as I can explain it...  Of course thank you for any help, i've been stuck on this for 3 days now! and my boss is not happy, especially since I'm a vary novice developer that took on this assignment...

How do I update an xml node?

Currently I have this:
$xml = simplexml_load_file($xmlfile);
$user = $xml->xpath('/root/users/user/name');
$usr = $user[0][0]->asXML();
$usr = $name;

I don't know if that I right or not, but I do know that if it is right, it isn't updating the xml file. Am I on the right track, or not? What can I do?

I'm trying to delete the <identifier> node of some XML, using the following code; unsuccessfully.   Can someone help me identify where I'm going wrong? TIA

$newXML = "";
$xmlString = Fedora_API::callGetDatastreamContents($this->pid, 'MODS', true);
$doc = DOMDocument::loadXML($xmlString);
$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

$fieldNodeList = $xpath->query("/identifier");

foreach ($fieldNodeList as $node) {  
	$fieldNodeList->removeChild($node);
}
$newXML = $doc->SaveXML();  

Hi All,

I've been struggling to get the following code to work. I have an API feed that looks like this:

 

<Jobs>
        <Job>
            <ID>1805</ID>
            <Name>House Additions/Alterations </Name>
            <Description>House</Description>
            <Client>
                <ID>16178470</ID>
                <Name>client name 1</Name>
            </Client>
            <ClientOrderNumber></ClientOrderNumber>
            <State>In Construction</State>
            <StartDate>2018-03-26T00:00:00</StartDate>
            <DueDate>2020-03-31T00:00:00</DueDate>
            <Contact>
                <ID>10195532</ID>
                <Name>Clent Name1</Name>
            </Contact>
            <InternalID>25026686</InternalID>
            <Manager>
                <ID>610781</ID>
                <Name>Manager Name 1</Name>
            </Manager>
            <Partner>
                <ID>610781</ID>
                <Name>patner name</Name>
            </Partner>
            <Assigned>
                <Staff>
                    <ID>610781</ID>
                    <Name>Staff 1</Name>
                </Staff>
              .........
              

I'm trying to work out how to show all the job ID, Job Name, Client Name, Start Date etc that are specific to the assigned staff member by selecting a specific staff member. $Staff is populated by a dropdown earlier in the code.

here's my code so far:

if ($err) {
  echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
} else {
        $xml=simplexml_load_string($response) or die("Error: Cannot create object"); 
    $jobs = $xml->xpath("Jobs/Job/Assigned/Staff[Name= '$Staff']");
    foreach($jobs as $item) {
    //foreach($xml->Jobs->Job as $item) {
        $item1 = $item->Client->Name;
        $job_no = "$item->ID";
        $job_name = "$item->Name";
        $job_client = "$item1";
        $job_start = "$item->StartDate";
        $job_due = "$item->DueDate";
        $job_status = "$item->State";
            
    echo "<tr><td>$job_no</td><td><a href='activecp/managejob.php?job_id=$job_no'>$job_name</a></td><td>$job_client</td><td>$job_status</td><td>$job_start</td><td>$job_due</td></tr>";
     } 
}

This currently shows the ID and name of the selected staff member but not the info i need. All of the data I want to show is before the Assigned/Staff . 

Any help would be much appreciated. 

Thanks in advance.

XML file:   <?xml version="1.0" ... >

    <record>         ...     </record>
</database>   I want to delete the record where <id> equals $_GET['id']. I tried many suggested implementations based on xml or simplexml, without result. Came across a very simple workaround (it should omit the record where id=$id), but can someone help me to taylor it to my xml scheme?   <?php
$file = "database.xml";

$id = $_GET['id'];

I am creating a football predictor game and have a table in the database to hod all my users i have written a query to pull all out the users that have made a prediction that day with their predictions made i have put this into an array so my array will hold all the user details 1 being their userId I have set the order by on the query to userId so I get all the same users predictions in 1 block. I now want to extract all the predictions for each user and put these into their own array but I don't know which users the array will hold, how many users their will be, or how many predictions each user would have made so i'm not sure how to create this array i'm quite new to php can anyone help me with this

Hi,

I have a RSS feed cached as an XML file. I need to pull some info out of it so I can then print it to the page.

Currently I am using this code to extract the data:

$doc = new DOMDocument();
  $doc->load('inthenews.xml');
  $inthenews = array();
  foreach ($doc->getElementsByTagName('item') as $node) {
    $itemRSS = array ( 
      'title' => $node->getElementsByTagName('title')->item(0)->nodeValue,
      'link' => $node->getElementsByTagName('link')->item(0)->nodeValue,
      'desc' => $node->getElementsByTagName('description')->item(0)->nodeValue,
      );
    array_push($inthenews, $itemRSS);
  }

However, the Description node contains more than I want. I need to remove everything except for the image ( <img../> ) it contains.

Is there some way of running preg or similar on the nodeValue as it is extracted? Or an alternative to "getElementsByTagName" that allows searching for strings?

If not, does anyone have a suggestion for doing this? I tried running preg_replace on the array, but it doesn't seem to do anything?? An example of the Array created by my code above is shown below:


Code: [Select]
[0] => Array
        (
            [title] => BBC radio Cambridge 7.20am
            [link] => images/news/Matthew_Freeman_Radio_Cambridgeshire_21-10-10.mp3
            [desc] => <img alt="BBC-logo" src="http://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/images/news/BBC-logo.jpg" height="54" width="127" /><br/>BBC radio Cambridge 7.20am 21.10.10: Dr Matthew Freeman"<br/> 21 October 2010
        )


Thanks in advance for any advice

I would like to adding a node to a tree. I want it to be a balanced b-tree. The logic/algorithm i can think of is

Code: [Select]
<?php
function add_node($root, $node) // Where $root is the parent to which node should be added and $node is the node that is to be added.
{
     Traverse the tree level wise, level 1 being the lchild and rchild of $root and calculate the number of node in that level
     if(number of nodes in a level < 2[sup]$level[/sup])  // Since number of nodes a level can accommodate  = 2[sup]$level[/sup] 
     {
          Add node in that level where ever it gets an empty spot.
     }
}
?>

Tree table:-
Code: [Select]
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `tree` (
  `parent` int(7) NOT NULL,
  `rchild` int(7) NOT NULL,
  `lchild` int(7) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
Is their any better logic to do so ?
