PHP - Compare Result Of Mysql Statement To String In Php
Hi All, I'm working on PHP scripts to interact with a web hosted MySQL DB for an Android Application. Simply what I am trying to do is in the PHP script is run a SELECT statement which will return the value of a column, UserType, and compare the result of this to a string, which will then execute code depending on it's value. This user type can only be either 'student' or 'lecturer'. Any help with this would be much appreciated. <?php require "init.php"; $user = $_GET["userID"]; #Selects column account type where the idNum equals $user which is passed from my app. $sql1 = "select accountType from user_info where idNum = '$user'"; $result1 = mysqli_query($con,$sql1); $row1 = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result1); #This is where I am stuck. Simply, I am trying to run the code in the loop where the result of $sql1 equals 'Student'. The else will run if it is not #student and therefore is 'Lecturer'. I'm also not sure if my code inside the IF is fully correct either as it's not running that far. if($row1['accountType'] == 'Student') { $sql2 = "select courseCode from user_info where idNum = '$user'"; $result2 = mysqli_query($con,$sql2); $row2 = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result2); $sql3 = "select * from module_details where classListCourseCode = '".$row2['courseCode']."'"; $result3 = mysqli_query($con,$sql3); $response = array(); while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result3)) { array_push($response,array("moduleID"=>$row[0],"lecturerID"=>$row[1],"moduleName"=>$row[2],"classListCourseCode"=>$row[3])); } echo json_encode(array("server_response"=>$response)); } Thanks in advance. Similar TutorialsI want to perform a query which returns a subset of the fields in a table. One particular mySQL field is VARCHAR I have a query like this: $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE code LIKE '3%') ; It's my understanding this should return all values which begin with "3", but it only returns about a dozen of the values 3, 30-39, 300-399, etc. (It works with string fields, but this field contains numerals.) Any help appreciated. thanks, Tom When I run 'select 1700-price as blah from goldclose as t2 order by dayid desc limit 1' by itself in mysql I get a numerical result: one row, one column. In my php script, the 1700 is actually a variable. so here it is $changequery = sprintf("select $goldprice-price as change from goldclose order by dayid desc limit 1"); $change = mysql_query(changequery); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($change)) { printf("$row[0]"); } mysql_free_result($changeresult); I get the following error, Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in <b>/root/fuzzy/htmlmain4.php on line 99 Warning: mysql_free_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in <b>/root/fuzzy/htmlmain4.php on line 103 Not sure why? All i want is to get the result of that select statement into a variable such as $change Best method to for the following? Code: [Select] // The following $str1 and $str2 should say they are identical $str1 = "abcDEF"; $str2 = "EcFabD"; // The following $str1 and $str2 should say they are NOT identical because of the "a" "A" case difference. $str1 = "abcDEF"; $str2 = "EcFAbD"; I'm comparing bitvector strings. "ABC" is different than "abc". "abc" is the same as "cba". What's the best php function or method I should use? Thank you. Hi, I am relatively new to PHP, and I am making a php script that will FTP into a server and add a donator's ID to a text file. However, I need it to check and see if the user is already listed under a usergroup in that file, and if so, remove those lines of text. Here's an example of what values in the file look like. Basically, I don't know how I could compare the contents of the file and delete it or replace parts of it when necessary Code: [Select] "STEAM_0:0:33358541" { "deny" { } "group" "moderator" "name" "TR Cpt. K. Reese" "allow" { } } Also, notice the "deny"{} and "allow"{} These are used for storing special commands that you allow or disallow the user to have in a game. How would i get a PHP script to ignore that... This uses STEAM's framework for userids. All help is appreciated!! Thanks! Hi again everyone, I am trying to compare a php variable to the value of a row in mysql, but keep getting the following error: Code: [Select] Wrong perameter count for mysql_result() What syntax would I use to accomplish this? Here is my code: // connects to server and selects database. include ("../includes/dbconnect.inc.php"); // table name $table_name = "availability"; // split up date into 3 separate fields $date = "12/25/2010"; $date_split = explode("/", $date); $month = $date_split[0]; $day = $date_split[1]; $year = $date_split[2]; // check if earth room is already reserved $taken = "Reserved"; $sql = "SELECT earth_room FROM $table_name WHERE month='$month' AND day='$day' AND year='$year' LIMIT 1"; $result = mysql_query($sql) or trigger_error("A mysql error has occurred!"); $row = mysql_result($result); if($row == $taken){ echo "Room Already Reserved"; } else{ echo "Room Available"; } Thanks for the help, kaiman Hi All, I have a select statement $stmt = $conn -> prepare(' SELECT u.user_firstname, u.user_lastname, so.staff_id, r.role_name FROM ssm_staff_order so INNER JOIN ssm_user u on so.staff_id = u.user_id INNER JOIN ssm_role r on u.user_role_id = r.role_id WHERE job_id = ?

I know this is not difficult but i am going around and around with it and clearly missing the key part. As always your help is appreciated. Hey, I'm new to this stuff. But I'm calling a Table with a list of products, I want people to be able to compare the products they checked. what is the best way of doing this with the code below? I put "blah" for everything except for the compare table and calls. This code seemed to work the best for the look I wanted for it. They all call the checkbox from 'Compare' in the mysql table. Thanks! $result = mysql_query("SELECT * from Compare_Tool ORDER BY Blah ASC"); //Table starting tag and header cells echo "<table border='1'><tr><th>Compare</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th><th>blah</th></tr>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?> <tr> <td align="center"><input name="checkbox[]" type="checkbox" Compare="checkbox[]" value="<? echo $row['Compare']; ?>"></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah']; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah]; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah]; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah]; ?></td> <td ><? echo $row['blah]; ?></td> </tr> <?php } echo "</table>"; ?> Has anyone got any script or refence to a tut where i can find a script that compares two mysql database (current) and outdated db and then takes the current db and updates the outdated one to match accordingly. Thanks Hi, I need to compare records in a table based on the 'datetime' field, like if the difference between time is less than 15min. need to combine the records(rows) as a single resultant row until the time difference between them is less than 15min and when a record's time difference is >15min that should return as another row and so on. Please find following sample table and the required output format Sample Table: Code: [Select] ID NAME DATETIME 1 aaa 2011-10-10 06:30:00 2 bbb 2011-10-10 06:33:00 3 ccc 2011-10-10 06:38:00 4 ddd 2011-10-10 06:40:00 5 eee 2011-10-10 07:10:00 6 ffff 2011-10-10 07:14:00 7 sss 2011-10-10 08:16:00 8 jjj 2011-10-10 08:26:00 9 kkk 2011-10-10 08:28:00 10 mm 2011-10-10 09:46:00 11 ppp 2011-10-10 09:49:00 12 qqq 2011-10-10 09:52:00 Output Needed : Code: [Select] IDs START DATETIME END DATETIME 1,2,3,4 2011-10-10 06:30:00 2011-10-10 06:40:00 5,6 2011-10-10 07:10:00 2011-10-10 07:14:00 7,8,9 2011-10-10 08:16:00 2011-10-10 08:28:00 10,11,12 2011-10-10 09:46:00 2011-10-10 09:52:00 You can see 1st row in the output table having IDs 1,2,3,4 coz the time difference between them is less than 15minutes (it doesn't means time difference between start and end; it is actually the time difference between current record and previous one ; ie; ID-1 and ID-2 have difference less than 15min and ID-2 & ID-3 have difference less than 15min and ID-3 & ID-4 have difference less than 15min, so those 4 records combine together as a single row also shows their start time and end time. Then you can see diff between ID-4 and ID-5 is greater than 15 min so it should display as new row, and so on) How can I acheive above Output with mysql query ?? Please help.. I am retrieving a rowfrom a table and when I post the row variable it doesnt read it. ___ $query = "SELECT * FROM $tbl_name"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo $row['name']; echo "<br />"; $postinfo = 'p_doctor_name=' . $row .'&p_name_type=A&p_search_type=BEGINS'; __ This outputs p_entity_name=&p_name_type=A&p_search_type=BEGINS Note that it is missing $row Do I need to put it in an array? I need an if statement, but i have no idea how or if it can be done. If a text string is greater than 10 characters, {echo $string} else{ print $error } <?php $string = '1900800008'; $error = 'String isn't long enough'; if( ????????? ){echo $string} else{ print $error } ?> Hello again. I run a sports league website and registrations received after a certain date need to have their league fees calculated to add 10%. someone wrote this for me a couple of years ago, but I have since then lost the full code. Need to know how to add a date to the follow statement that would automatically add the 10%. Can someone look at this for me and fill me in on what's missing? Thanks!

My query string variables keep being fed back into my original if/ese statement on index.php. here is the if/else on index.php (these links work fine): <?php if($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']=='/index.php' || $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']=='') { include 'port.php'; } elseif (isset($_GET['pos'])){ include 'pos.php'; } elseif (isset($_GET['web'])){ include 'web.php'; } elseif (isset($_GET['fine'])){ include 'fine.php'; } else {include '404.php';} here is the if/else on my secondary page (fine.php). These links are supposed to alert the if/else in the next table cell. However, they instead alert the if/else in index.php. <td><br/> <a href="?backset"><img src="fine/thumbs/x-backset.jpg" border="0"></a><br/><br/> <a href="?backside"><img src="fine/thumbs/x-backside.jpg" border="0"></a><br/><br/> <a href="?bannerprint"><img src="fine/thumbs/x-bannerprint.jpg" border="0"></a><br/><br/> <a href="?chopu"><img src="fine/thumbs/x-chopu.jpg" border="0"></a><br/><br/> </td> <td><br/> <div id="DivPiece" align="left"> <?PHP if (isset($_GET['backset'])){ include 'fine/backset.php'; } elseif (isset($_GET['backside'])){ include 'fine/backside.php'; } elseif (isset($_GET['bannerprint'])){ include 'fine/bannerprint.php'; } elseif (isset($_GET['chopu'])){ include 'fine/chopu.php'; } ?> </div> </td> How can I get the links on the secondary page to only alert the if/else statement on that page, and BLOCK the if/else statement on index.php from seeing them? I still want to use the query string though. Thanks! [/quote] How can I check if a returned mysql value is equal to '' i.e. nothing?

I have created a database and I am using PHP to grab the data: $usera = $_SESSION['username']; $query2 = "SELECT * FROM tracker WHERE id = '$usera', hidden = yes"; mysql_query($query2) or die('Error, query failed : ' . mysql_error()); This hopefully will return multiple rows which look like this in the database. id username date reps hidden 1 supremebeing 2011-01-02 30 yes 4 supremebeing 2011-04-02 46 yes How would i turn each result into a variable eg: $date1 = 2011-01-02; $date2 = 2011-04-02; $reps1 = 30; $reps2 = 46; I think i have explained that well enough for you to understand, please reply if not though and i will provide more information. Thanks in Advance |
