I am using apache web server on linux. I am using PHP for web designing. On web server, i want to show the configuration data by reading the ini file. I am creating this ini file from one php code itself. If this php code i run through linux terminal, the file is created with file and group owner as root.(i am having sudo rights on machine) Then if i try to read the ini file from my apache web server, it gives warning as failed to open stream: permission denied. I have tried changing the owner, and permissions to 777 of the file. Still it is not readable. On the other hand, if i run the php code of ini file creation through web server, ini file is created with file and group owner as apche. and web server is able to read/ write the file. But i want to create that file from root or some other user and later read/written by apache. How to give this access permission?

Hi everybody,

I generally find any assistance that I need on various sites, but this one has me stumped. I'm not overly advanced with my use of arrays, so I'd like some help here if anyone knows what I am looking for.

I have a form that I would like to submit to a MySQL database. In that form, there is the ability to add up to 3 harddrives:
Code: [Select]
Brand: <input type="text" name="hdds[0][hddbrand]" id="hddbrand"><br/>
Model and/or size,type: <input type="text" name="hdds[0][hddtype]" id="hddtype"><br/>
SN: <input type="text" name="hdds[0][hddsn]" id="hddsn"><br/>
Notes: <input type="text" name="hdds[0][hddnotes]" id="hddnotes" size="50">
Obviously the next harddrive would be hdds[1][hddbrand], etc.

I am having an awful time looping through this to get more than 1 harddrive's information, however. I've tried foreach embedded in foreach and been messing around with this for a good 3-4 hours now and I feel like I am just missing something.

I've got this right now to debug:
Code: [Select]
foreach($_POST['hdds'] as $key => $a) {
$hddbrand = $a['hddbrand'];
}
my print_r($a) comes up with the following:
Code: [Select]
Array ( [hddbrand] => Toshiba [hddtype] => Shaba 500gb [hddsn] => 5fu8bvw4 [hddnotes] =>none ) 1
Good. That's what I want. But I need some help constructing my array/loop to get the values of more than 1 drive should I have to enter information for more than 1 drive.

I feel like I am close, but I am just not getting what I need. I have not had to work with multidimensional arrays before and they are proving to be more trickier than I expected. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

I am looking at the code below:

Code: [Select]
$array = array(
                array(
                1, 2
          ),
          'a' => array(
                'b' => 1,
                'c'
        )
);       
Is this an example of a multidimensional array? If so how would I access the value of 1 from key b?

Also would the next line ('c') be automatically assigned to the asociative key of c?

I need to extract data from a CSV file and insert it into a MySQL database. I am able to extract the data, however I cannot figure out how to group it.

Sample File:
01   ISBN  Name of Book   Price
02   ISBN  Name of Book   Price

So far I have an array with the entire file (reading file with PHP):

Array ([0] => 01 [1] => 12345678X [2] => Title [3] => 120.00 ...etc.

How can I modify the array to create groups of four for each item? Each item is its own array?

I've been working on some code to:
1. Search a db for rows that have a particular "position" value
2. Search the same db for rows that have a particular "langs" value
3. Compare the two arrays resulting for 1 and 2
4. Create a multidimensional array $langsarray[langs][question id] if 3 is true.
5. For each langs array in $langsarray pick a random, non-duplicate value and add it to $qarray for a maximum of 12 elements (3 for each langs).

What I have works about 95%.

The problem is, in the first langs array, one of the 3 randomly picked values is almost always empty, and its not always the same element. Sometimes its the first, sometimes its the third, sometimes its the second...

I think I've narrowed down the issue to line 44 ($qtemp = ...). If I change the min/max values for the mt_rand function, it behaves slightly differently. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi All

I'm new to php and I have a multidimensional array set up which I need to sort for a results list from an assessment.

The array is $gradout['name']['userid']=score.

I need to sort the array by score in a decending order. 

['name'] is a string and ['userid'] is a numeric.

I've tried looking at the php manual but It's just confusing me.  Can anyone explain to me in laymans terms what I need to do and why.

Hi, I have an array of type array_name[roll_number][aggregate_marks]. How do I sort such array on 'aggregate_marks'? My attempts on sort, asort haven't worked.

Hey guys I am trying to make a simple shopping cart but I can't seem to wrap my head around this.

I have $_SESSION['cart'] as an array and I can add an item to it and then echo specific elements of the item like so

echo $_SESSION['cart']['0']['Name'];

I can not seem to figure out how to add a second item to the array so I can do something like

echo $_SESSION['cart']['1']['Name'];

and it will echo the second item that I 'added' to my cart?

Thanks I hope that makes sense.

Hi.
I have a multidimensional array and i need sort it by two different key.
I've tried almost every sort function but no chance.

Code: [Select]
Array (
[0] => Array (
[0] => 1 [id] => 1
[11] => this is test [main_txt] => this is test
[12] => 943965420 [add_time] => 943965420
[13] => 1323356400 [add_date] => 1323356400 )
[1] => Array (
[0] => 3 [id] => 3
[11] => another test [main_txt] => another test
[12] => 943965120 [add_time] => 943965120
[13] => 1323702000 [add_date] => 1323702000 )
[2] => Array (
[0] => 32 [id] => 32
[11] => oppss one more test [main_txt] => oppss one more test
[12] => 943944900 [add_time] => 943944900
[13] => 1323702000 [add_date] => 1323702000 )
[3] => Array (
[0] => 5 [id] => 5
[11] => okay, this is last one. Seriously [main_txt] => okay, this is last one. Seriously
[12] => 943937160 [add_time] => 943937160
[13] => 1323615600 [add_date] => 1323615600 )
)
I need sort by add_date(Newer to Older) first then add_time(Later to Earlier) later.

I hope i made my self clear.

Hi All

How do I go about splitting a multidimensional array into seperate smaller ones?

Currently I have $grade[region][userid]=value.

I'd like to split as $region1[userid]=value $region2[userid]=value $region3[userid]=value $region4[userid]=value $region5[userid]=value $region6[userid]=value
Is there an inbuilt function for this?

I am having trouble searching for an item in a multi-dimensional array.

Is there a way to search only one column in a multi-dimensional array?

i.e:

MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ARRAY

ID  Name  DataTable
0   John  Employee
1   Dan   Employee
2   Matt  Boss
3   Becky Supervisor


Is there a way to only search the column "Name"(Column 2) using array_search() or similar? (i.e array_search("John",$ARRAY[Column2])

The help would be very much appreciated!

Cheers, Dan 

I'm trying to create a multidimensional array of movies organized by genre. This should take the form of an associative array with genres as keys.  Each of the arrays elements should be an array containing movie names.

This is what I have:
<?php
$movies = array(
        array("SF" => "", "Terminator", "Soylent Green", "I Robot", "frankenstein"),
         array("horror" => "exorcist", "IT", "frankenstein"),
         array("comedy" => "holy grail", "blazing saddles", "young frankenstein")
    );
   
//echo $movies[0][0]."<br>";
//echo $movies[1][0]."<br>";
//echo $movies[2][0];

foreach ($movies as $c) {
        while (list($k, $v) = each ($c)) {
echo "$k ... $v <br/>";
        }
}
?>

this is the output:
SF ...
0 ... Terminator
1 ... Soylent Green
2 ... I Robot
3 ... frankenstein
horror ... exorcist
0 ... IT
1 ... frankenstein
comedy ... holy grail
0 ... blazing saddles
1 ... young frankenstein

you'll see Terminator is only listed as element 0 because there's an empty string in front of it. The first item in the array is liated as the value to the key while the second value is listed as element 0.  It doesn't seem right to me.

Hey guys, quick question.

I have an array that looks like (blow). How can i sort it based on array[0][3], the #'s 1,2,3,4,5,6 are what i want to sort by in ASC order.

) 
[1] => Array ( 
[1] => Link Name 
[2] => URL

) 
[2] => Array ( 
[1] => Link Name 
[2] => URL
[3] => 3 
[4] => fy 
) 
[3] => Array ( 
[1] => Link Name 
[2] => URL
[3] => 4 
[4] => fy 
) 
[4] => Array (

) 
[5] => Array (
