PHP - Foreach And Db Output
I'm learning PHP and put to myself to a task. But I can't figure this out. It's about the foreach
There is this database called books with columns: isbn, author,title, price. The DB has records. I want to output certain records of certain columns:for example echo $books['title"];. I also would like to use some functions I used the following code to titles listing for example: function db_connect() { $result = new mysqli('localhost', 'root', 'password', 'books'); if (!$result) { return false; } $result->autocommit(TRUE); return $result; } function get_book_details($isbn) { // query database for all details for a particular book if ((!$isbn) || ($isbn=='')) { return false; } $conn = db_connect(); $query = "select * from books where isbn='".$isbn."'"; $result = @$conn->query($query); if (!$result) { return false; } $result = @$result->fetch_assoc(); return $result; } $book = get_book_details($isbn); foreach($bookdetail as $isbn => $qty){ echo $book['title']; } but with no luck it gives this error: Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\lessons\basics\arrays\foreach.php on line 41 Any help would be appreciated. Similar Tutorials Hi! This bit of code does exactly what I want it to just not sure why. The way I would (***_u_me) this code to be written would be to replace the echo ($array_2[$index]); with echo ($array_2[$value]); to get the output I'm getting. Basically the foreach loop loops through $array_1 when it finds a key with a null value it outputs the $value or the $index which ever I decide to output of $array_2 which corresponds to that value. when I echo ($array_2[$value]) I get no output and when I echo ($array_2[$index]) I get the wanted output below. It doesn't seem right <?php function test() { $array_1 = array("Matt" => NULL, "Kim" => 1, "Jessica" => NULL, "Keri" => 1); $array_2 = array("Matt","Kim","Jessica","Keri"); foreach ($array_2 as $index => $value) { if (!isset($array_1[$value])) { echo ($array_2[$index]); echo "<br />"; } } } test(); ?> output Matt Jessica Thanks, steadythecourse Hello i would like to as a little help on how to proper format an foreach output into an HTML table. I have a small function inside an class, that will retrieve the data of an MySQL table and return the result in 1 array, Outside that function i can get the values displayed i only need to format it to show in an table here's what i have: function that gets the data Code: [Select] function getfansub(){ $subfanarray = array(); $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM anr_fansub WHERE 1"); while($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)){ $subfanarray[] = $result; } return $subfanarray; } Outside the funtion/class Code: [Select] $fansubarray = $mysql->getfansub(); VAR_DUMP( $fansubarray ); echo "<br><br>"; foreach($fansubarray as $name){ echo $name['FansubID'] ." ". $name['Designation'] ." ". $name['Website'] ." ". $name['tracker'] ." ". $name['irc'] ."<br>"; } The problem i have with the formating (i really dont know who i can do it) is when he reaches the IRC link he needs to open and close the td and tr brakets of the table. any help or tip is apreciated, thanks in advance hello I am trying to print a query out into a table that is grouped and styled by date. If the same date appears I want to style the row similar. Here is what I have: <table class="signup-sched"> <tr><th>signup date</th><th>Name</th><th>Notes</th></tr> <?php $myrows = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT `datefield-256` as signupdate, `your-name` as name, `your-email` as email, `your-message` as notes FROM wp_cc3_signup WHERE DATE_FORMAT(`datefield-256`, '%Y%m') = DATE_FORMAT(CURDATE(), '%Y%m') ORDER BY `datefield-256`"); $sd = ''; if(count($myrows)){ foreach($myrows as $m){ if ($m->signupdate != $sd){ if ($sd != ''){ echo '<tr class="b"><td>'.$m->signupdate.'</td><td>'.$m->name.'</td><td>'.$m->notes.'</td></tr>'; } echo '<tr class="n"><td>'.$m->signupdate.'</td><td>'.$m->name.'</td><td>'.$m->notes.'</td></tr>'; $sd = $m->signupdate; } } } ?> </table> What am I doing wrong? Well I have a script that executes a scan on a system set to run infinitely, and I need it to echo out a message each time it loops through, but I don't want it to echo out the message with the next loop message below it, and the next one below that etc... I've tried using the flush(); function and been messing around with that with no luck. For security reasons I don't want to release any of the processing code, but here is the basic construction of the script: <?PHP ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** $RepeatIt = -1; for($g=1; $g!=$RepeatIt+1; $g++) { ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** $ScanMessage = ":.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: ".$MobName." (SCAN #$g) :.:.:"."<br/><br/>"; echo $ScanMessage; ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** ***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE*** } ?> At the moment it's returning: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #1) :.:.: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #2) :.:.: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #3) :.:.: :.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #4) :.:.: So what I want it to do is just delete the scanning message and replace it with the next scan message so while running this script you would see just the number increment on the same line. Any suggestions? Thanks. This topic has been moved to Application Frameworks. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=355772.0 I'm not sure if the title explains it very well, but here is an image of it. I am trying to figure out how to access the option selected (equal, not equal, etc.), along with its input box, for each column (the checkboxes on the right) selected. The purpose of this is to allow a non-programming administrator user to create a custom query to access information. I can find out which checkboxes are selected no problem, but finding the accompanying drop-down option and input box is difficult for me. How do I do this? If you have a suggestion on how to change it, I'm very open. Thank you in advance!

I appear to be having a simple simon day! my foreach is only displaying the last result in the table as opposed to each row $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($query); echo "There are $num_rows records.<br>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_row($query)) foreach ($row as $field) { echo '<div class="results">'; echo $field; echo '<br></div>'; } And the source Code: [Select] <link href="../styles/clientbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <body><br> <h3>My Services</h3> <div class="text"> You currently have the following services with us: </div> There are 2 records.<br><div class="results">test1<br></div> </body> </html> My table has 2 rows which the 1st one has a package of test and the second a package of test1 Can anyone help? Thanks I'm trying to figure out why its saying Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/content/y/a/n/yankeefaninkc/html/defiant/efedmanager/forms/booking.php on line 17.

When I echo $m below, it will show all selected options fine. Instead, I want it to show many I selected. So if I selected 3 in dropdown, I want it to say I selected 3 instead of showing their values. $allmaps=$_POST['maps']; foreach ($allmaps as $m) { echo 'm = '.$m.''; } <select name="maps[]" multiple>'.$maps.'</select> i have a table that echos 10 entries what i want to do is once it echos 5 records it starts a new table. I dont know how to go about this. Could you guys guide me the right way. Hi i am trying to pass values from a cart to a database using foreach. This is my code: Code: [Select] $columns = array('order_id', 'order_item_id', 'order_product_name', 'order_product_dimensions', 'order_product_options', 'order_product_quantity', 'order_product_price', 'order_product_subtotal', 'order_product_vat', 'order_product_delivery','order_product_total','order_product_sku','order_product_image_name','order_product_image_type','order_product_image_path','order_product_image_size','order_product_artwork_link','order_product_artwork_name','order_product_artwork_type','order_product_artwork_path','order_product_artwork_size','order_firstname','order_lastname','order_companyname','order_email','order_tel','order_billing_address','order_billing_address2','order_billing_town','order_billing_county','order_billing_postcode','order_shipping_address','order_shipping_address2','order_shipping_town','order_shipping_county','order_shipping_postcode','order_status','order_username'); $data = array_fill_keys($columns, 'NULL'); foreach($data as $key => $value) { $data[$key] = empty($_POST[$key]) ? 'NULL' : "'".mysql_escape_string($_POST[$key])."'"; $query = "INSERT INTO orders (id, order_created_at, ".implode(", ",$columns).") VALUES (null, NOW(), ".implode(",",$data).')'; } Problem is posting 2 or more products into the database. How do i split the values so it enters each product into the database? I am trying to develop a calendar. I have code to determine the number of days for each month. I want to cycle through each day and spit out code for each day. Something like the following: Code: [Select] <?php $month = "December"; $days = 31; foreach($days){ echo "<div id='day_block'> ".$days." </div>"; } ?> i think i need to use a counter but don't know how, any help would be awesome! today i programmed my own weight calculator. one thing i am having a problem is with trying to make it so if a weight is over a certain number, then the shipping price will increase by X. shipping prices are charged in 20000 gram blocks, so if I have something that is 22000 grams then that will be two blocks. what i need to do is something like (this is a big guess) Quote $row3 = 50; $weighttotal = 22000; if ($weighttotal > 20000) { foreach (20000) { $row3 += $row3;} } } } can it be done on php?? Hi guys, Having a bit of trouble getting this to work. I should say before I start that im a rookie at PHP. Basically this is the code I have {counter start=0 print=false name=competcount} {foreach item=compet from=$person.competition} <img src="./bargraph/bar.php?value={$person.lineup[$compet.id].titular}&max={$club.matchsplayed[$compet.id].nummatchs}&info" /> The problem lies with the $club array not being defined Code: [Select] $club.matchsplayed[$competition.id].nummatchs How do I set up multiple arrays with foreach? Am I even in the right ball park with this? Hi All, I essentially am trying to figure out how to print out all of the zip codes that are associated with a search that I am doing, but not list the same zip code more than once. My current foreach statement is as follows and prints out the zip code for each property that is associated with the search: <ul> <?php foreach($properties as $property) { ?> <li><?=$property->$zipcode?></li> <?php } ?> </ul> How would I modify this to print out 1 occurrence of each zip code that is in the search, even if, for example 20 properties have the same zip code? Thanks in advance! P.S. - Tried using an array to work with it but pretty sure my logic was incorrect when putting it together and couldn't get past the errors. Anyways, thanks in advance for the help! Noob question. I've learned so much in the last couple of weeks that I've actually found two ways of doing the same thing! I was wondering which was the better method, if there is any difference. They are being used to print somewhere between 10 and 200 lines of text. Either: $categories_count= (count($categories[1])) -1; for ($u=0; $u < $categories_count; $u++) {echo "<li>".$categories[1][$u]."</li>";} Or: foreach ($categories[1] as $line => $cat) {echo "<li>".$cat."</li>";}; public function update($data, $table, $where) { foreach ($data as $column => $value) { $sql = "UPDATE $table SET $column = $value WHERE $where"; print "table: ".$table." column: ".$column." whe ".$where; mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error()); } return true; } $data: $data = array( "username" => "Jack", "email" => "jack.gmail@gmail.com" ); $db->update($data, "users", 'id=1'); Working on this code that updates a column from a class. Everything is fine except for one issue. As of right now $column is set to "Jack" which outputs an error, instead of what it should be as "username". I'm sure it's something really simple, so any assistance is appreciated. Any ideas? Problem area is listed in red. Hi can any one help please im still very new but hard trying The problem is that i only get 1 result back from the database i need it to loop any ideas please Code: [Select] $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM categorys, sub_categorys WHERE categorys.cat_id = sub_categorys.cat_id"); echo "<ul>"; $row[] = mysql_fetch_array($query); foreach($row as $category){ echo "<li>"; echo $category['category']; foreach($row as $sub_category){ if($category['cat_id'] == $sub_category["cat_id"]){ echo "<ul><li>".$sub_category["sub_category"]."</li></ul>"; } } echo "</li>"; } echo "</ul>"; |
