PHP - Unable To Print Out Array From A Php Function
Dear all, Kindly help with this code I have written, it is not returning the array I created. It is a very small script but I have been looking for a very long time but I couldn't see why it went wrong. $duration = 2; $start='01-01-2019'; $month =date('n', strtotime($start)); $year =date('Y', strtotime($start)); $mon = 12-$month+1; $remainingMonth = $duration*12; $years_arr = array("$year"); $residue_arr = array("$remainingMonth"); $years_arr = process($remainingMonth,$year,$mon,$years_arr,$residue_arr); print_r($years_arr); //<output function process($remainingMonth,$year,$mon,$years_arr,$residue_arr){ $residue = $remainingMonth - $mon;//$D$18-D20 if($residue != 0){ $new_year = $year+1; array_push($years_arr, $new_year); array_push($residue_arr, $residue); if($residue > 12 ){ $mon = 12; } else { $mon = $residue; } echo "<br>"; process($residue,$new_year,$mon,$years_arr,$residue_arr); } else { print_r($years_arr); return $years_arr; } }//end of process(..) The objective is to add a year to the $years_arr array and then print it put, yet I notice that nothing get's printed out. Please assist, if you need more info from my side, please do ask. Thank you very much in advance. Similar TutorialsHi I have been trying to populate my data from 3 tables and display like this: DATE $acronym1 $acronym2 POSTS 1/9/2011 10 (this is no of posts) 3 POSTS 31/8/2011 20 10 and so on. the threads and user table will be similar as well. I am not able to populate the distinct dates since the dateline contains time as well. So when I try to print out the just dates(without time) , it prints with the dates repeated. it prints something like this: 1/9/2011 1 1/9/2011 1 and so on..

And as user clicks on [b], there is an onchange function that will then show [b] data fields (fields in A is deleted and replaced with B). I am able to add the initial values however, as i want to edit and change the stockroom from [A] to [b] which will result in a whole new data to be stored, i am unable to do so. Any ideas?

I have a piece of code he
$result = display_all(fcon, $var1, $var2); function display_all( // defined in another file $query = "SELECT one, two, three four, index1, index2 FROM numbers WHERE index1 = $var1 LIMIT 0, 1"; $result = mysqli_query($fcon, $query); return ($result); )and then I use the returned variable $result to display the value as follows:- while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>".$one."</td>"; echo "<td>".$two."</td>"; echo "<td>".$three. "</td>"; echo "<td>".$four. "</td>"; echo "<td>".$index1. "</td>"; echo "</tr>"; }and this displays the n rows of data returned. Now I have started using prepared statements and the function is now function display_all{ $query = "SELECT one, two, three four, index1 FROM numbers WHERE index1 = ? LIMIT 0, 10"; $stmt = $conn->prepare($query); $stmt->bind_param('i',$var) if($stmt->execute()) { $stmt->bind_result($one, $two, $three, $four, $index1); $stmt->store_result(); } return($stmt); }However the returned $stmt object is unable to display the n rows of data since it shows null values. I assume that this is not the right way to use the $stmt object to display data. I must be missing something. So I request you guys to help me with this. Thanks loads. Edited by ajoo, 23 December 2014 - 11:24 AM. Probably a simple solution, just one I'm not sure how to do it. I need the array to print out like this Code: [Select] array( 'name'=>'Store 1', 'address'=>'LA1' ), Right now, I got it to look like this Thanks in advance Code: [Select] Array ( [name] => 'Albertville Farmers Market', [address] => '116 Main Street Albertville, Alabama 35950' ) , Array ( [name] => 'Alexander City Downtown Market', [address] => 'Braod Street Alexander City, Alabama 35010' ) , How can I go about accomplishing this? Here is my code Code: [Select] $stores = array('name'=>"'$MktName',",'address'=>"'$address'"); echo "<pre>"; print_r($stores); echo "</pre>"; Ok so its been a while since school and ive forgotton most my php as Ive been more into site building wiht css, html and graphics... <?php $part=part(""); $size=size(""); $qty=qty(""); if (($part=="2") && ($size=="11") && ($qty=="100")) echo "Price quote is $59.00" else if (($part=="2") && ($size=="11") && ($qty=="500")) echo "Price quote is $99.00" ?> my goal is to have a simple form, wiht 3 drop downs qty, size, part are the field names. And depending what options they pick they get a price out put... im missing something so simple, I know it should only take a couple lines of code and simply repeat it wiht else if until you hit the end of all possible options. Can some one please help? Thanks What I'm trying to achieve is to get a set of data from a database and then cycle through the array and add the contents of each row to a variable. I'm trying to use $i to cycle through the array but at the moment it's just printing the first character of each set. Any help would be great. $fav_products_sql = "select fav_products.product_id, fav_products.product_order, product_list.product_name from fav_products, product_list where fav_products.product_id = product_list.id"; $fav_products_rs = mysql_query($fav_products_sql, $conn); $fav_products = mysql_fetch_array ($fav_products_rs); while ($i < 11) { $_SESSION['fav_products'] = "<li>" . $fav_products['product_order']['$i'] .

How can I do this? I tried the code below, but it only returns me one value Code: [Select] $values = array($_POST["type"]); foreach ($values as $item){ echo $item; } Any help??? Thanks!! If I wanted to print a string that contains a variable that also contains an array, how would I do so? I want to put the resulting echo into a log file. Example: “These are the books: $userArray and these are the pages: $pagesArray”; With just an array, I can use print_r($array, true) to get an array formatted for use in a string (which works well for my purposes) but this doesn’t work with two arrays unless I do this manually. (Such as setting the $user_array = print_r($userArray). But I want to write a function that will take a string, potentially containing arrays (as variables), and interpolate/make them legible for humans. (Some of the arrays are also multidimensional.) But it looks like I can't even concatenate a string and an array. $string = $string . $array. gives an error, array to string conversion. I don’t understand PHP very well so please explain what is going on here. and the best way to record something like the Example above. You can ignore my previous thread: Xpath help.

I'm basically pulling some data from an API using CuRL, which is working fine. The structure of the data is: [data][tickets] - tickets being an array of support tickets in the system, which then contains ticketNumber, title, content. I want to display these values in a list, I have this code currently: if ($err) { echo "cURL Error #:" . $err; } else { $return = json_decode($response, true); foreach($return as $key) { echo $key["tickets"][1]['ticketNumber']." - "; echo $key["tickets"][1]['title']." - "; echo $key["tickets"][1]['content']; } } Which obviously returns the ticketNumber, title & content of the first support ticket in the array, but I want to loop through and display that information for each ticket! Can anyone advise as to where I am going wrong? I think I need to utilise the ["tickets"][x] but not sure how!
Thanks in advance! Steve Hi the above title explains it all.How to output a post array which has been given input using forms.I know you can do it my echo but what about print() Thanks [ Newbie Alert ] Hi i have an array of 39 arrays. Only 5 are shown below so that you have an idea before i ask my question. <? array(39) { [0]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(18) "unit name 1" [1]=> string(9) "category name 1" [2]=> string(20) "Course 1" } [1]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(54) "unit name 2" [1]=> string(15) "category name 2" [2]=> string(20) "Course 1" } [2]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(29) "unit name 3" [1]=> string(15) "category name 2" [2]=> string(20) "Course 1" } [3]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(64) "unit name 4" [1]=> string(30) "category name 3" [2]=> string(20) "Course 2" } [4]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(57) "unit name 5" [1]=> string(24) "category name 1" [2]=> string(20) "Course 1" } [5]=> array(3) { [0]=> string(50) "unit name 6" [1]=> string(24) "category name 4" [2]=> string(20) "Course 2" } } i want a php solution to print category names in table headers , unit names in table rows and course name(s) in table caption.I have tried foreach loop but how to remove duplicate entries as you can see category name 1 and 2 will become two separate headers instead of one and same is the case with Course 1 and 2. i have googled but could'nt find any solution. i don't want to remove duplicate entries , all i want to display them once in a table as described above. Ok so here's what I'm trying to do and what I'm having to do since I can not figure out how to script this.
I create my GUI for scripting in HTML. When I script I create a full HTML page for my input forms, one full HTML page for the error code and lastly one HTML page for the receipt when the script runs correct. I then create my php scripting (basic template where I can cut and paste my HTML for the GUI output once it has been encapsulated in FULL be the php print function after having the quotation marks escaped and replaced by a backslash follow by a quotation mark).
Currently and over the past Decade. I have done this encapsulation the Hard way. Meaning I build my HTML file in FrontPage. I save the HTML file and then I open it in Microsoft Notepad. First thing I do is use the replace All function from the edit menu to Find every instance of " and replace them all with \" then I manually goto the first line of code and place a Tad then type print " I then hold control and shift to copy the ( tab print ") and begin to paste manually using Ctrl V and then I hit the down arrow on my keyboard quickly followed by the Home button to drop my cursor down a line and input the beginning of my PHP print function encapsulation one frigging line at a time. Once I've reach the very bottom, I go up the back right hand side of the HTML document with my ending quotation followed by semi colon manually with Ctrl V and hitting up arrow followed by end button.
This process of encapsulation the hard way with note pad takes up 90% of my dev time when programming. It makes stuff easy to read in my code and is perfect for outputting. What I would like to do is find a way to create a php script with a file upload form field that would take the input of any and all html files and parse the full document automating the exact process that I run on all of my HTML GUI files so that I can turn the encapsulation work into nothing and focus on the actual scripting.
You wouldn't believe how many hours of Ctrl V and up n down end and home I have pressed. Spent 8 hours last night alone. When form fields have multiple drop down selectors for country code ect. the HTML files to encapsulate manually become Ridiculously long.
I have never seen or heard of anyone doing exactly what I've explained here as I know the print function used like this is not normal. Every HTML file or snippet in any of my scripting is always encapsulated in the print function to output. And I have no intentions on changing my style. I would like to automate my process. And if it is too complex for me to build it in a decent amount of time I am willing to pay good money to get this finished for me ASAP.
Please message me back ASAP as I'm working on a personal project that has over 2,000 HTML files for me to encapsulate a the minimum.

Hello, I am fairly new to PHP and I found some php code to print an array of numbers that create a combination - however, its slams all the numbers together without a space or a comma separator. How can I separate the numbers in this array with the given code? Ive attached a photo of the code.
I am having some problems getting a query correct. Basically I have two tables, one with listings and another with categories. In the listings table I have a column called shortdescription. I am trying to pull the shortdescription from the listings table with the query $shortdesc = array_shift(mysql_fetch_row(mysql_query("select shortdescription from links where category = '".$scat->id."' "))); The shortdecription display properly on the pages display the listings, however I am getting the following error on any pages that only display the parent categories Warning: array_shift() [function.array-shift]: The argument should be an array in /home/...path/file.php on line 1462 The listings id numbers begin at 75+ because the initial parent category id ends at 74. The query seems to be searching for listing ids below 75 and spitting out an error because it is not finding them. Any ideas on how to eliminate this error and/or stop the query from looking for non-existant data? I want to define a function instead of repeating query in all my php pages. I call a function by passing an $id value and from that function i have to get all the info related to that id, like name, description and uom.
I am trying to do this, but i dont know how to get these values seperately.
here is my function
function items($item_id) { $details = array(); $result = mysql_query("select item_id, name, uom, description from items where item_id=".$item_id."") or die (mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $details[] = array((stripslashes($row['name'])), (stripslashes($row['uom'])), (stripslashes($row['description']))); } return $details; }and i call my function like this $info = items($id);Can somebody guide me in this hi Code: [Select] function livre($form_data_array['ensino']) { } this code give me a syntax error, why? what is the correct way? thanks |
