PHP - Help Needed With Xml To Array

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?

Using curl_multi, I have loaded up 3 url's and then printed the array.

1) How can I also set a timestamp on output to let me know when each url was run?

2) How can I explode the array to only display the data and timestamp, excluding the text "Array ( =>", "[1] =>", "[2] =>" and " )"? Code

<?php

function multiRequest($data, $options = array()) {

  // array of curl handles
  $curly = array();
  // data to be returned
  $result = array();

  // multi handle
  $mh = curl_multi_init();

  // loop through $data and create curl handles
  // then add them to the multi-handle
  foreach ($data as $id => $d) {

    $curly[$id] = curl_init();

    $url = (is_array($d) && !empty($d['url'])) ? $d['url'] : $d;
    curl_setopt($curly[$id], CURLOPT_URL,            $url);
    curl_setopt($curly[$id], CURLOPT_HEADER,         0);
    curl_setopt($curly[$id], CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

    // post?
    if (is_array($d)) {
      if (!empty($d['post'])) {
        curl_setopt($curly[$id], CURLOPT_POST,       1);
        curl_setopt($curly[$id], CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $d['post']);
      }
    }

    // extra options?
    if (!empty($options)) {
      curl_setopt_array($curly[$id], $options);
    }

    curl_multi_add_handle($mh, $curly[$id]);
  }

  // execute the handles
  $running = null;
  do {
    curl_multi_exec($mh, $running);
  } while($running > 0);

  // get content and remove handles
  foreach($curly as $id => $c) {
    $result[$id] = curl_multi_getcontent($c);
    curl_multi_remove_handle($mh, $c);
  }

  // all done
  curl_multi_close($mh);

  return $result;
}



$data = array(array(),array());

$data[0]['url']  = 'http://search.yahooapis.com/VideoSearchService/V1/videoSearch?appid=YahooDemo&query=Pearl+Jam&output=json';
$data[1]['url']  = 'http://search.yahooapis.com/VideoSearchService/V1/videoSearch?appid=YahooDemo&query=Black+Eyed+Peas&output=json';
$data[2]['url']  = 'http://search.yahooapis.com/VideoSearchService/V1/videoSearch?appid=YahooDemo&query=Nirvana&output=json';

$r = multiRequest($data);

print_r($r);

        [2] => Nirvana )

Preferred Output

01:00:01 Pearl Jam

I need a help in the following :
I have an admin page from where the admin attaches an gif image.This attached image should be shown to the user as a scrolling image.
The code for the scrolling image is done through javascript.
So my actual problem is getting the name of the attached gif image to the javascript array which is used for scrolling horizontally.

Hello all,

I have yet again trouble finding a logical solution to my problem.
I'm fetching an array which can hold 1 or more values.
The problem is, I want these values to ouput in my json_encode function, but this also needs to happen dynamically depending on the amount of values.

I can't explain it further, so here's the code so far:

Code: (php) [Select]
$files = mysql_fetch_array($get_files);

$a = count($files);

$i = 1;
while ($files) {
$variablename = 'fileName' . $i;
$$variablename = $files['fileName'];
$i++;
}

$output =  array( OTHER VALUES , 'fileName1' => $fileName1, 'fileName2' => $fileName2, 'fileName3' => $fileName3, ............); // How do I add the fileNames dynamically depending on how many there are?


This got me thinking, I also need to dynamically GET the values with jQuery. How would I do that, when the above eventually works?

Thank you.

I have mysql select query shown below retrieving data from a database:

$sql = "
SELECT 
	student, sum( test_score ) as score
FROM 
	test
INNER JOIN 
	level 
ON 
	test.level_id = level.level_id
GROUP BY 
	student"
$result = $mysqli->query($sql, MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT);
if($result)
{
      while ($row = $result->fetch_array(MYSQLI_ASSOC))
       {
	    var_dump($row);
       }
}

On inspection of the retrieved array with var_dump(), i have these result below:

array (size=2)
  'John' => string 'English' (length=2)
  'Score' => string '20' (length=3)

array (size=2)
  'Mary' => string 'Math' (length=3)
  'Score' => string '35' (length=3)

array (size=2)
  'Samuel' => string 'Physics' (length=3)
  'Score' => string '5' (length=3)

 How do I get at and print out the highest score from this set of array values within this context.
 I tried this echo max($row['count']) but i understandably got this feedback:
Warning: max(): When only one parameter is given, it must be an array   Thanks.

Hi there,

Basic question, but I can't seem to find a page in the PHP docs that answers (though I'm sure such a one exists, I just can't seem to think up the right search terms - anyway)

My question is: is there a short-hand way to use a value from an associative array as the key in another associative array?

So for example, given this array:

$the_array = array(0 => array('name': 'the_name', 'value' : 'the_value'), 1 => etc....);

then this kind of foreach loop doesn't work

Code: [Select]
$new_data = array();
foreach($the_array as $element){
$new_data[$element['name']] = $element['value'];
}

Obviously I can just save out the values, like $name = $element['name'] --- but I was just wondering if there was a more efficient way to do it?

Cheers,

PS. I tried encapsulating with {} - i.e. $new_data[{$element['name']}] --- but that also fails.

So I'm trying to create an Array from a comma separated string containing array{s}. How can I take a string full of comma separated hex values such as : 

<?php
    $myStr = (
        "00ffff", "00cccc", "009999", 
        "007777", "004444", "001111", 
        "01ffff", "01cccc", "019999"
    );
?>

& turn it into 3 separated arrays like : 

<?php
    $myNewArrs = [
        Array1 ( 3 ), 
        Array2 ( 3 ), 
        Array3 ( 3 ), 
    ];
?>

which REALLY looks like : 

<?php
    $myNewArrs = [
        Array ( "00ffff", "00cccc", "009999" ), 
        Array ( "007777", "004444", "001111" ), 
        Array ( "01ffff", "01cccc", "019999" ), 
    ];
?>

?

Any assistance is most-definitely appreciated!

Thank you & have a great afternoon!

Hi,
A piece of software I'm using an array is made that looks like the following:
Code: [Select]
[["Select","Vehicle",0.142933,[0.15,0.4,0.05,0.01]]]
How would I be best parsing it so:
Square brackets currently showing an array becomes an array within PHP
Text strings surrounded by "quotations" lose the quotation mark when stored in the PHP array
Numbers remain as values in the PHP array

The arrays can become quite large, so which would be the best way to go about it?

Regards,
Jason

Hi, I am very new to PHP and apologies if this question has already been answered in another thread.   I am trying to extract the information from one array into another when some search criteria is matched.   Here is an example array ($original): Array ( [ 1234567 ] => Array ( [name] => john ) [ 3456 ] => Array ( [name] => johnny ) [ 45673 ] => Array ( [name] => james ) [ 987 ] => Array ( [name] => jamie ) [ 5628721 ] => Array ( [name] => Simon ))   So if I searched for the string john, jo, joh then the new array ($filtered) should be as follows: Array ( [ 1234567 ] => Array ( [name] => john ) [ 3456 ] => Array ( [name] => johnny ))   I was trying to do this using array_search & preg_match but have been struggling.   Any help would be much appreciated!  

Currently, I am trying to make my URL shortener script able to track UTM variables from Google Analytics. I also want to provide my own (campaign/keyword/source/etc...) variables.

I am trying to sift through $_GET, pick out "approved" key/value pairs and set each key with the condition that UTM variables take higher precedence (I only want to store one value in the database).

My code is currently:

Code: [Select]
//Parse $_GET and only get the key/pairs that we need and store them in global $url_params for use through out the script
function set_url_params($allowed=NULL) { // $allowed is arg to add new values in future dev
global $url_params;

$allowed = array(
    'l', // Redirect key (e.g http://example.com?l=a1dFd7)
    'utm_campaign',
    'campaign',
    'utm_source' ,
    'source',
    'utm_medium',
    'medium',
    'utm_term',
    'term',
    'keyword',
    'kw',
    );

    $approved = array_intersect_key($_GET, array_flip($allowed));

    foreach($approved as $key => $value) {
        strip_tags(urldecode(trim($value)));
        $url_params[$key] = $value;
    }

    //Assign variables to global $url_params variable so other functions can use them.
    //NOTE: Google Analytics UTM parameters take precedence over script values.
    $url_params['l'] = isset($approved['l']) ? $approved['l'] : NULL ;
    $url_params['campaign'] = isset($approved['utm_campaign']) ? $approved['utm_campaign'] : $approved['campaign'];
    $url_params['source'] = isset($approved['utm_source']) ? $approved['utm_source'] : $approved['source'];
    $url_params['medium'] = isset($approved['utm_medium']) ? $approved['utm_medium'] : $approved['medium'];
    $url_params['term'] = isset($approved['utm_term']) ? $approved['utm_term'] : $approved['term'];
    $url_params['keyword'] = isset($approved['keyword']) ? $approved['keyword'] : $approved['kw'];
    // Just in case $url_params doesn't have a 'keyword' set, we will use 'term' instead.
    $url_params['keyword'] = isset($url_params['keyword']) ? $url_params['keyword'] : $url_params['term'];

}

I basically want to find a cleaner way of doing this without all the isset()'s. I also get NOTICE errors (running in E_ALL) for undefined variables that I would like to unset so I don't get those errors.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

This part of the code:   UPDATE productoptions SET sizeid = '6', colorid = '5' WHERE productid='41'   , is supposed to be updating sizes and colors, however, it is only updating the last size/color selected in the check box.

Thanks in advance for any support!
